As used in this description, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" include plural references unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. The term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0041] The grilling appliance usually comprises an upper grill plate assembly and a lower grill plate assembly, the upper grill plate assembly is rotatably connected to the lower grill plate, by operating the upper grill plate assembly to rotate relative to the lower grill plate assembly, usually a handle is arranged on the upper grill plate assembly to facilitate the user to exert force. At present, the handle on the upper shell of the grilling appliance can be divided into two types, one is a fixed handle, the handle is fixed on the upper shell, no matter the handle is arranged on the top surface of the upper shell along the height direction of the upper shell or is protruded on the side surface or top surface of the upper shell along the length direction of the upper shell, which increases the overall volume of the grilling appliance, and cannot support when the grilling appliance is fully unfolded; the other is a folding handle, although it solves the problem of convenient storage and reduces the volume, but it usually cannot meet the supporting function when the grilling appliance is fully unfolded, or is easy to fall when supporting.
[0042] In order to solve the above problems, as shown in Figures 1 to 10 , the application provides an upper cover assembly 100 and a grilling appliance, the handle of the grilling appliance is convenient to store, and can support when the grilling appliance is opened. Wherein, the length direction of the grilling appliance is defined as Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 left and right direction, the width direction of the grilling appliance is Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 front and back direction, and the height direction of the grilling appliance is Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 up and down direction.
[0043] As shown in Figures 1 to 5 , specifically, the upper cover assembly 100 is used for the grilling appliance, the grilling appliance comprises a lower shell assembly 200 and an upper cover assembly 100 rotatably connected with the lower shell assembly 200, the upper cover assembly 100 comprises an upper cover 10 and a handle 20, wherein: the top surface of the upper cover 10 has a mounting groove 11 and an avoiding hole 13, the mounting groove 11 is located away from one end of the upper cover assembly 100 for rotatable connection with the lower shell assembly 200; the handle 20 is rotatably arranged in the mounting groove 11, the handle 20 comprises a force applying part 21 and a supporting part 22 connected with the force applying part 21, the supporting part 22 is protruded with a resisting part 24, the handle 20 has a storage state and an unfolded state switched by rotation, in the storage state, the supporting part 22 is located in the mounting groove 11 and the resisting part 24 is located in the avoiding hole 13, in the unfolded state, the resisting part 24 abuts against the back surface of the groove bottom of the mounting groove 11, and the lower surface of the supporting part 22 and the upper surface of the upper cover 10 have an included angle.
[0044] It should be noted that the upper cover assembly 100 has a cover state as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , a storage state as shown in Figure 5The open state is shown. The user can control the top cover assembly 100 to maintain its closed state along... Figure 1 The upper cover assembly 100 is rotated clockwise relative to the lower housing assembly 200 to the open state, or controlled to move from the open state along... Figure 5 The upper cover assembly 100 rotates counterclockwise relative to the lower housing assembly 200 to a closed state. In the closed state, the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower housing assembly 200 are approximately at 0°; in the open state, they are approximately at 180°. The user can control the upper cover assembly 100 to rotate to any state within the range of 0° to 180° between the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower housing assembly 200. The support portion 22 has, as shown... Figure 1 The storage status shown is as follows: Figure 3 and Figure 5 The extended state is shown. The user can control the support section 22 to retract as it retracts. Figure 1 Rotate clockwise relative to the top cover 10 to the unfolded state, or control the support part 22 to move from the unfolded state along... Figure 3 Rotate counterclockwise relative to the top cover 10 to the storage position. Figure 1 The state shown is as follows: the cover assembly 100 is in the closed state and the support part 22 is in the retracted state. At this time, the upper surface of the cover 10 and the upper surface of the support part 22 are both facing upward, and the lower surface of the cover 10 and the lower surface of the support part 22 are both facing downward.
[0045] In the top cover assembly 100 provided in this embodiment of the utility model, in the retracted state, the support portion 22 of the handle 20 is located within the mounting groove 11, so that the support portion 22 does not protrude excessively from the top cover 10, avoiding increasing the overall thickness of the top cover assembly 100, thus facilitating retraction. The abutment portion 24 is located within the clearance hole 13, so that the abutment portion 24 is not exposed, and can prevent the abutment portion 24 from interfering with the top cover 10 and affecting the rotation of the handle 20 relative to the top cover 10. When it is necessary to unfold the top cover assembly 100 from the closed state to the open state, a clockwise force is first applied to the force application portion 21, so that the support portion 22 rotates from the retracted state to the unfolded state in a clockwise direction. The abutment portion 24 and the back of the bottom of the mounting groove 11 are aligned. When the surface abuts, the support part 22 can no longer rotate clockwise; the force-applying part 21 continues to be applied clockwise, so that the entire cover assembly 100 rotates clockwise from the closed state to the open state. The end of the force-applying part 21 or the support part 22 away from the cover 10 can be supported on an external plane such as a table or countertop, thereby supporting the cover assembly 100. In addition, the back of the blocking part 24 abuts against the bottom of the mounting groove 11, which can also prevent the handle 20 from rotating too much relative to the cover 10 and affecting the support effect. This ensures the stability and reliability of the handle 20 supporting the cover assembly 100, so as to ensure the stability and reliability of the cover assembly 100 in the open state.
[0046] The number of abutment parts 24 can be one, two or more. When there are multiple abutment parts 24, the multiple abutment parts 24 are arranged along the width direction of the support part 22.
[0047] like Figure 4 As shown, the overlap length L between the abutment 24 and the back side of the bottom of the mounting groove 11 is not less than 2.5 mm. It should be noted that the overlap length L refers to the length of the area where the abutment 24 and the back side of the bottom of the mounting groove 11 abut against each other in a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the support 22. L can be any size greater than or equal to 2.5 mm, such as 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, or 5 mm. This increases the torque of the abutment 24 and also increases the contact area between the abutment 24 and the back side of the bottom of the mounting groove 11, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the support 22 in the unfolded state, and thus improving the stability and reliability of the handle 20 supporting the upper cover assembly 100.
[0048] like Figure 4 As shown, the stop portion 24 is plate-shaped, and the thickness H4 of the stop portion 24 is not less than 2mm. H4 can be any size greater than or equal to 2mm, such as 2mm, 3mm, 4mm, or 5mm. This increases the strength of the stop portion 24, preventing it from breaking and causing the support portion 22 to rotate unexpectedly relative to the upper cover 10 in a clockwise direction. This also improves the stability and reliability of the handle 20 supporting the upper cover assembly 100.
[0049] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the support portion 22 has a first side 221 away from the force-applying portion 21 and a second side 222 connected to the force-applying portion 21. One of the mounting groove 11 and the first side 221 of the support portion 22 is provided with a rotating portion 23, and the other is provided with a mating portion 12 that engages with the rotating portion 23. The force-applying portion 21 is located on the side of the support portion 22 away from the rotating portion 23, making it easier for the user to rotate the handle 20 relative to the upper cover 10 using the mating portion 12. When the upper cover assembly 100 is in the open state, the end of the force-applying portion 21 away from the support portion 22 is supported on an external plane such as a desktop or tabletop, thus providing support for the upper cover assembly 100.
[0050] like Figure 8As shown, in one embodiment, the rotating part 23 is a rotating shaft 231 arranged on the supporting part 22, and the cooperating part 12 is a cooperating groove 121 matched with the rotating shaft 231. The cooperating groove 121 is arranged on the back of the groove bottom of the mounting groove 11. The groove bottom of the mounting groove 11 is provided with an avoiding opening 111. The avoiding opening 111 and the side wall of the mounting groove 11 away from the force applying part 21 form an avoiding hole 13. The upper cover assembly 100 further comprises a pressing plate 30 provided with a recess 31. The pressing plate 30 is arranged on the groove opening of the cooperating groove 121 and forms an annular hole with the cooperating groove 121. The arrangement of the cooperating groove 121 on the back of the groove bottom of the mounting groove 11 can prevent the rotating shaft 231, the cooperating groove 121 and the pressing plate 30 from being exposed, thereby ensuring the regular appearance of the upper cover assembly 100. When assembling the handle 20, the resisting part 24 and the rotating shaft 231 are first arranged through the avoiding hole 13. Then, the rotating shaft 231 is matched with the cooperating groove 121 on the back of the groove bottom of the mounting groove 11. Finally, the pressing plate 30 is arranged on the groove opening of the cooperating groove 121. The annular hole formed by the recess 31 and the cooperating groove 121 is matched with the rotating shaft to realize the rotation of the handle 20 around the axis of the rotating shaft 231 relative to the upper cover 10. The rotating shaft can rotate smoothly in the annular hole, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the handle 20 during the rotation. The pressing plate 30 can prevent the rotating shaft 231 from being separated from the cooperating groove 121, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle 20 and the upper cover 10. In addition, the separate arrangement of the pressing plate 30 and the upper cover 10 can facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the handle 20.
[0051] Of course, in other embodiments, the cooperating part 12 can be an annular shaft hole. Alternatively, the rotating shaft 231 can be arranged on the two side walls of the mounting groove 11. The rotating part 23 can be an annular shaft hole arranged on the two sides of the supporting part 22. The cooperating part 12 can be a rotating shaft 231 arranged on the two side walls of the mounting groove 11. The rotating shaft 231 is rotatably arranged in the shaft hole, so that the handle 20 can rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 231 relative to the upper cover 10. The structure of the rotating shaft 231 and the shaft hole is simple, thereby facilitating the processing and assembly of the handle 20.
[0052] As shown in FIG. 1, the handle 20 is arranged on the upper cover 10. The handle 20 comprises a force applying part 21, a resisting part 24, a rotating part 23 and a cooperating part 12. The force applying part 21 is arranged on the upper cover 10. The resisting part 24 is arranged on the force applying part 21. The rotating part 23 is arranged on the resisting part 24. The cooperating part 12 is arranged on the rotating part 23. Figure 4 and Figure 8As shown, the support part 22 is also provided with a pivot seat 25. Both the pivot shaft 231 and the abutment part 24 are located on the pivot seat 25. The end of the pivot shaft 231 protrudes from the pivot seat 25 along its axial direction, and the abutment part 24 protrudes from the pivot shaft 231 along its radial direction. The pivot seat 25 connects the support part 22 and the pivot shaft 231, allowing the pivot shaft 231 and the abutment part 24 to pass through the clearance hole 13 and extend to the back side of the bottom of the mounting groove 11. Mating grooves 121 are located on both sides of the clearance opening 111. Both ends of the pivot shaft 231 mate with the mating grooves 121 on both sides. There are also two pressure plates 30, which cover the openings of the mating grooves 121 on both sides. The pressure plates 30 can be fixedly connected to the back side of the bottom of the mounting groove 11 by screws, snap-fitting, or other means. The abutment 24 protrudes from the rotating shaft 231 in the radial direction of the rotating shaft 231. This ensures that the abutment 24 rotates synchronously with the rotating shaft 231 to abut against the back of the bottom of the mounting groove 11, and prevents the support 22 from rotating too much or too little relative to the top cover 10, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the handle 20 supporting the top cover assembly 100.
[0053] like Figures 4 to 5 As shown, in the unfolded state, the included angle α between the lower surface of the support 22 and the upper surface of the cover 10 is preferably 90 to 105 degrees, meaning the handle 20 can rotate relative to the cover 10 within the range of 90 to 105 degrees. The included angle α can be any angle within the range of 90 to 105 degrees, such as 90, 95, 100, or 105 degrees. Angle α between the lower surface of the support 22 and the upper surface of the cover 10 is greater than or equal to 90 degrees. When the cover assembly 100 is in the open state, this prevents the force applied by the cover 10 to the support 22 from causing the handle 20 to accidentally rotate counterclockwise relative to the cover 10 to the retracted state, thereby further improving the stability and reliability of the handle 20 supporting the cover assembly 100. Furthermore, an angle α between the lower surface of the support 22 and the upper surface of the cover 10 is less than or equal to 105 degrees to prevent the handle 20 from rotating too much relative to the cover 10, which would affect the support effect, and also avoids making the length of the handle 20 too large.
[0054] like Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the mounting groove 11 is located near the edge of the upper cover 10, and the side wall of the mounting groove 11 near the edge has an opening. The periphery of the support part 22 cooperates with the side wall of the mounting groove 11. The opening on the side wall of the mounting groove 11 near the edge means that the side wall of the mounting groove 11 furthest from the rotatable connection between the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower housing assembly 200 has an opening, which facilitates the user's grip on the force-applying part 21. The cooperation of the periphery of the support part 22 with the side wall of the mounting groove 11 prevents the bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 from being exposed, thereby improving the aesthetics of the upper cover assembly 100. Furthermore, the force-applying part 21 is further away from the rotatable connection between the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower housing assembly 200. In the retracted state, it is easier for the user to control the rotation of the upper cover assembly 100 relative to the lower housing assembly 200 using the handle 20; in the unfolded state, it makes the force-applying part 21 more stable when supporting the upper cover assembly 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the mounting groove 11 can also be located away from the edge of the upper cover 10, that is, the mounting groove 11 does not have an opening. Along the length direction of the upper cover assembly 100, the half of the upper cover 10 near the end where the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower housing assembly 200 are rotatably connected is defined as the first region, and the half of the upper cover 10 away from the end where the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower housing assembly 200 are rotatably connected is defined as the second region, and the mounting groove 11 is located in the second region.
[0055] like Figure 1 and Figure 9 As shown, in the folded state, along the thickness direction of the cover 10, the upper surface of the support portion 22 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the cover 10. This improves the aesthetics of the cover assembly 100. It is worth noting that the fact that the upper surface of the support portion 22 is substantially flush with the upper surface of the cover 10 can be understood as, from an overall perspective, the upper surface of the support portion 22 and the upper surface of the cover 10 forming a near-uniform surface; the effects of assembly errors or gaps are ignored here. Of course, in other embodiments, the support portion 22 may also be partially located within the mounting groove 11, i.e., the upper surface of the support portion 22 is slightly higher than the upper surface of the cover 10; or, the upper surface of the support portion 22 may be slightly lower than the upper surface of the cover 10.
[0056] like Figure 10 As shown, in one embodiment, the force-applying part 21 at least partially protrudes from the peripheral or upper edge of the cover 10. This facilitates the user's grip on and application of force to the force-applying part 21. When it is necessary to unfold the cover assembly 100 from the closed state to the open state, the force-applying part 21 is pulled up, causing the support part 22 to rotate clockwise from the retracted state to the unfolded state. Continuing to pull up the force-applying part 21 allows the support part 22 to drive the entire cover assembly 100 to rotate and open from the closed state.
[0057] like Figure 1As shown in another embodiment, the force applying part 21 extends from the second side 222 of the supporting part 22 towards the direction away from the upper surface of the upper cover 10, the outer surface of the force applying part 21 is adapted to the side surface of the upper cover 10, and the lower end surface of the force applying part 21 has a force applying gap 50 with the groove bottom of the mounting groove 11. In this way, Figure 3 As shown in the state, the upper cover assembly 100 is in the closed state, and the supporting part 22 is in the unfolded state, at this time, the outer surface of the force applying part 21 faces upwards, the inner surface of the force applying part 21 faces downwards, and the lower end surface of the force applying part 21 faces left. Since the force applying part 21 extends towards the direction away from the upper surface of the upper cover 10, the force applying part 21 does not protrude from the upper surface of the upper cover 10 in the storage state, thereby avoiding increasing the overall thickness of the upper cover assembly 100, and further improving the aesthetic degree of the upper cover assembly 100. Moreover, the force applying part 21 does not protrude from the side surface of the upper cover 10, and the overall length of the upper cover assembly 100 is also avoided from being increased, so as to facilitate storage, thereby saving packaging space and cost. It is worth mentioning that the outer surface of the force applying part 21 is adapted to the side surface of the upper cover 10 can be understood as that, from the whole, the outer surface of the force applying part 21 is flush with the side surface of the upper cover 10, and the outer surface of the force applying part 21 and the side surface of the upper cover 10 form a similar surface, and the influence caused by assembly error or assembly gap is ignored. The force applying gap 50 between the lower end surface of the force applying part 21 and the groove bottom of the mounting groove 11 enables the user's fingers to enter the force applying gap 50 and apply force to the lower end surface of the force applying part 21. Specifically, the height H3 of the force applying gap 50 is not less than 10 mm. Wherein, H3 can be 10 mm, 11 mm, 12 mm, or any size greater than or equal to 10 mm. When it is needed to unfold the upper cover assembly 100 from the closed state to the open state, first, force is applied to the lower end surface of the force applying part 21 at the force applying gap 50, so that the supporting part 22 rotates and unfolds in the clockwise direction from the storage state, and then the force applying part 21 is pulled, so that the supporting part 22 can drive the upper cover assembly 100 as a whole to rotate and open from the closed state. Moreover, since the force applying part 21 extends towards the direction away from the upper surface of the upper cover 10, the force applying part 21 does not protrude from the upper surface of the upper cover 10 in the storage state, thereby avoiding increasing the overall thickness of the upper cover assembly 100, so as to facilitate storage. Of course, in other embodiments, the outer surface of the force applying part 21 can slightly protrude from the side surface of the upper cover 10; or the upper surface of the force applying part 21 can be concave relative to the side surface of the upper cover 10.
[0058] As shown in FIGS. Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 , the utility model embodiment further provides a baking appliance, including lower shell assembly 200 and above-mentioned upper cover assembly 100, upper cover assembly 100 is rotatably connected in lower shell assembly 200. The user can control upper cover assembly 100 relative to lower shell assembly 200 in Figure 1The cover is switched between the closed state shown and Figure 5 The force applying part 21 of the handle 20 can stably support the upper cover assembly 100 in the open state.
[0059] As shown in the drawings, Figure 5 As shown, the lower shell assembly 200 also has a supporting leg 201, and the distance between the upper cover 10 and the plane where the supporting leg 201 is located in the unfolded state is H1, and the height dimension of the handle 20 protruding from the upper cover 10 is H2, then H2-H1≥1mm is satisfied. Wherein, H2-H1 can be 1mm, 2mm, 3mm, etc. Any size greater than or equal to 1mm. The upper cover assembly 100 also includes an upper baking tray 40 provided on the lower surface of the upper cover 10. When the supporting leg 201 and the force applying part 21 are jointly supported on the external plane such as the desktop, countertop, etc., the upper baking tray 40 is higher at the end away from the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower shell assembly 200 rotatingly connected than at the end close to the upper cover assembly 100 and the lower shell assembly 200 rotatingly connected, and the upper baking tray 40 is inclined downward towards the lower shell assembly 200, so that the oil liquid on the upper baking tray 40 can flow along the upper baking tray 40 to the lower shell assembly 200, avoiding the oil liquid flowing to other places and being difficult to clean.
