Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of small household appliances, specifically to a grilling machine. Background Technology
[0002] A typical grill pan generally consists of an upper main body and a lower main body. Both parts can be equipped with baking trays to form a double baking pan, which allows food to be grilled from both sides simultaneously without needing to be flipped, thus improving food processing efficiency.
[0003] The upper and lower main bodies are typically hinged together. When using the grill, the user can flip the upper body to open it, allowing them to place food on the lower baking tray, check the cooking process, or flip the food during cooking. Normally, in the open position, the upper and lower main bodies form an angle of approximately 100 degrees. The upper body is supported by a slight backward tilt relative to the lower body, but this support relies solely on the hinge and related support structures; there are no other limiting mechanisms. If the user or someone else accidentally touches the upper body, it can easily flip forward and accidentally close, potentially hitting the user's hand or tools, causing burns or injuries, thus reducing the product's safety. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a grilling machine, which aims to solve the technical problem that existing grilling machines lack a limit switch when the lid is open, resulting in burns or injuries caused by the upper body being accidentally closed.
[0005] This utility model discloses a grilling machine, including an upper grilling plate assembly and a lower grilling plate assembly. The lower grilling plate assembly is provided with a hinge seat, and the upper grilling plate assembly is provided with a pivot shaft. The pivot shaft is hinged to the hinge seat and can float vertically relative to the hinge seat. The hinge seat is provided with a limiting member, and the upper grilling plate assembly is provided with a mating member. The upper grilling plate assembly has a first position with the lid open and a second position with the lid closed. In the first position, the limiting member and the mating member are limited and engaged, and the limiting member interferes with the rotation of the mating member toward the lower grilling plate assembly. The upper grilling plate assembly floats upward relative to the lower grilling plate assembly, causing the mating member to separate from the limiting member, and the upper grilling plate assembly flips toward the lower grilling plate assembly to the second position.
[0006] The grilling machine of this utility model also has the following additional technical features:
[0007] In the first position, both the mating component and the limiting component are partially located below the height of the pivot axis. The mating component is located inside the limiting component, and the limiting component abuts against the mating component during the rotation of the mating component toward the lower baking tray assembly to restrict the rotation of the mating component.
[0008] The upper baking pan assembly switches from the first position to the second position. After the upper baking pan assembly rotates from the first high position of the pivot axis to cover the lower baking pan assembly, the limiting member is configured not to interfere with the mating member during the process of the mating member falling to the second low position of the pivot axis in the floating direction of the pivot axis.
[0009] The limiting member is a limiting rib, and the mating member is a stop rib. In the first position, the limiting member and the mating member are in a stop-locking engagement.
[0010] The end face of the limiting member facing the mating member extends obliquely from top to bottom toward the mating member.
[0011] One of the limiting member and the mating member is a slot and the other is a post. In the first position, the limiting member and the mating member are inserted and mated.
[0012] The limiting component is a plug-in post, and the mating component is a plug-in groove with the opening facing downwards, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the plug-in post.
[0013] Two limiting members are provided and distributed on both sides of the center of the lower baking tray assembly; two mating members are provided and are configured one-to-one with the two limiting members; and / or, the lower baking tray assembly is provided with a clearance groove extending to the hinge seat for the mating members to move and make clearance.
[0014] The upper baking pan assembly has a third position, in which the upper baking pan assembly and the lower baking pan assembly form a 180-degree angle.
[0015] The end of the hinge seat is provided with a limiting part, and the upper baking pan assembly is provided with a support rib corresponding to the limiting part. In the first position, the support rib abuts against the limiting part. The upper baking pan assembly floats upward relative to the lower baking pan assembly, causing the support rib to disengage from the limiting part. The upper baking pan assembly flips away from the lower baking pan assembly to switch to the third position.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0017] 1. The grilling machine of this utility model, by setting a limiting component and a cooperating component, when the upper grilling plate assembly is in the first position of the open lid, the limiting component interferes with the rotation of the cooperating component towards the lower grilling plate assembly, which can prevent the upper grilling plate assembly from accidentally closing the lid. That is, it can keep the upper grilling plate assembly stably in the open lid position, and the user can safely watch the food or flip the food. It can avoid the situation of burns or hand injuries caused by the upper grilling plate assembly accidentally closing the lid, thus improving the reliability and safety of the grilling machine and enhancing the user experience.
[0018] Since the upper baking tray assembly can float within a certain vertical space, when it is necessary to close the lid, you only need to lift the upper baking tray assembly upwards with a little force to separate the mating parts from the limiting parts, and then you can operate the upper baking tray assembly to rotate and close the lid. It is simple to operate and convenient to use.
[0019] 2. To limit the upper baking pan assembly in the open position, in the first position, both the mating component and the limiting component are partially located below the height of the pivot axis. The mating component is located inside the limiting component, and the limiting component abuts against the mating component during the rotation of the mating component toward the lower baking pan assembly, thereby restricting the rotation of the mating component. Thus, when the user or other person touches the upper baking pan assembly, causing it to tend to close, some parts of the mating component located below the pivot axis will rotate toward the limiting component and then abut against the end face of the limiting component. Due to the stop of the limiting component, the mating component cannot continue to rotate, thus preventing the upper baking pan assembly from rotating as well. This restricts the upper baking pan assembly from closing, ensuring that the upper baking pan assembly remains stable in the first position and providing safety for user operation.
[0020] Furthermore, when the user wants to close the lid, to ensure smooth closing, the upper baking tray assembly switches from the first position to the second position. After the upper baking tray assembly rotates from the first high position of the pivot axis to close with the lower baking tray assembly, the limiting member is set to not interfere with the mating part during the process of the mating part falling to the second low position of the pivot axis along the floating direction of the pivot axis. That is, in the normal closing process, the user first needs to lift the upper baking tray assembly to separate the mating part from the limiting member. After releasing the limiting member, the upper baking tray assembly can be rotated to close the lid. Then, the upper baking tray assembly will continue to move down a distance under the action of gravity. During this process, the limiting member will not interfere with the mating part, thus ensuring smooth closing and ensuring the reliability of the machine.
[0021] The specific form of the limiting structure can be that the limiting member is a limiting rib and the mating member is a stop rib. In the first position, the limiting member and the mating member stop and cooperate. The matching structure of the limiting rib and the stop rib satisfies the premise of reliable limiting of the upper baking pan assembly in the first position. The structure is simple and easy to form on the existing grilling machine. The existing upper baking pan assembly and lower baking pan assembly can be improved and processed. The impact on the overall structure is small. There is no need to re-mold and manufacture, which can reduce costs.
[0022] Furthermore, to ensure smooth opening, the end face of the limiting member facing the mating part extends inclined downwards towards the mating part. Thus, after the user flips the upper baking tray assembly to the opening angle, the upper baking tray assembly will move downwards a certain distance under the action of gravity after the user releases their grip. During this process, the inclined end face of the limiting member can guide the mating part to slide downwards, which can reduce friction between the two, make the movement smooth, and improve the opening efficiency.
[0023] 3. The limiting structure is not limited to the use of a combination of limiting ribs and stop ribs. It can also be that one of the limiting component and the mating component is an insertion groove and the other is an insertion post. In the first position, the limiting component and the mating component are inserted and mated. Thus, by inserting and mating the limiting component and the mating component, the upper baking pan assembly is reliably limited in the first position. The design form and mating method of the limiting component and the mating component can be flexibly changed. This is beneficial to select appropriate limiting components and mating components for processing according to the actual situation of the existing grilling machine, so as to make full use of the existing structure and space, achieve a reasonable layout, and promote the compact arrangement of the structure.
[0024] In one embodiment, the limiting component is a plug-in post, and the mating component is a plug-in groove with its opening facing downwards. The diameter of the opening is larger than the diameter of the plug-in post. By setting the plug-in groove on the upper baking tray assembly with its opening facing downwards, dust or foreign objects can be prevented from entering the plug-in groove when the lid is open, thus preventing them from affecting the plug-in effect of the plug-in post and the plug-in groove. This also ensures the cleanliness of the plug-in groove and saves users the amount of cleaning work.
[0025] 4. To improve the reliability of the upper baking tray assembly in the first position, two limiting components are provided and distributed on both sides of the center of the lower baking tray assembly. Two mating components are provided and are set one-to-one with the two limiting components. By using the two sets of symmetrically distributed limiting structures, the upper baking tray assembly can be stably limited in the first position, avoiding accidental closing of the lid. Compared with the use of a single limiting component and mating component, the two sets of limiting structures can distribute the force, reduce the risk of structural components breaking due to excessive force, and help extend the service life of the machine.
[0026] To improve the smoothness of opening and closing the lid, the lower baking tray assembly is provided with a relief groove extending to the hinge seat, which is used for the movement of the mating parts to avoid obstruction. This reduces the restriction on the mating parts during rotation, reduces friction between parts, ensures smooth rotation, reduces wear, and extends the service life of the machine.
[0027] 5. In addition to the two positions mentioned above, the upper baking tray assembly also has a third position. In the third position, the upper baking tray assembly and the lower baking tray assembly form a 180-degree angle. At this time, the upper baking tray assembly and the lower baking tray assembly are completely flat, which makes it convenient for users to wipe the baking tray or perform structural maintenance, providing convenience and improving the user experience.
[0028] Furthermore, the end of the hinge seat is provided with a limiting part, and the upper baking tray assembly is provided with a support rib corresponding to the limiting part. In the first position, the support rib abuts against the limiting part. The upper baking tray assembly floats upward relative to the lower baking tray assembly, causing the support rib to disengage from the limiting part. The upper baking tray assembly flips away from the lower baking tray assembly to switch to the third position. Thus, by setting the limiting part and the support rib, in the first position, the upper baking tray assembly can be supported by the abutting cooperation between the support rib and the limiting part. Under the limiting action of the support rib and the limiting part, the upper baking tray assembly will not accidentally tilt backward, thus avoiding accidental tipping of the upper baking tray assembly. Only after the support rib disengages from the limiting part can the upper baking tray assembly be operated to reach the third position, further improving the safety and reliability of the machine.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, this application provides a grilling machine, including an upper grilling plate assembly 10 and a lower grilling plate assembly 11. The lower grilling plate assembly 11 is provided with a hinge seat 12, and the upper grilling plate assembly 10 is provided with a pivot shaft 13. The pivot shaft 13 is hinged to the hinge seat 12 and can float vertically relative to the hinge seat 12. The hinge seat 12 is provided with a limiting member, and the upper grilling plate assembly 10 is provided with a mating member. The upper grilling plate assembly 10 has a first position with the lid open and a second position with the lid closed. In the first position, the limiting member and the mating member are limited and engaged, and the limiting member interferes with the rotation of the mating member toward the lower grilling plate assembly 11. The upper grilling plate assembly 10 floats upward relative to the lower grilling plate assembly 11, causing the mating member to separate from the limiting member. The upper grilling plate assembly 10 flips toward the lower grilling plate assembly 11 to the second position.
[0049] This utility model of a grilling machine, by setting a limiting component and a cooperating component, prevents the upper grilling pan assembly 10 from accidentally closing when the lid is in the first open position. This is achieved by the limiting component interfering with the rotation of the cooperating component towards the lower grilling pan assembly 11. The upper grilling pan assembly 10 is thus stably maintained in the open position, allowing the user to safely observe or flip the food. This avoids burns or hand injuries caused by the upper grilling pan assembly 10 accidentally closing, thus improving the reliability and safety of the grilling machine and enhancing the user experience. Since the upper grilling pan assembly 10 can float within a certain vertical space, closing the lid only requires a slight upward lift to separate the cooperating component from the limiting component, allowing the upper grilling pan assembly 10 to rotate and close the lid. The operation is simple and convenient.
[0050] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the hinge seat 12 is provided with a mounting groove 121 that passes through the pivot shaft 13 along the axial direction of the pivot shaft 13. The mounting groove 121 has a certain height in the vertical direction, which can meet the vertical floating of the pivot shaft 13, providing favorable conditions for the upper baking tray assembly 10 to flip open and close. Figure 3 , Figure 4 or Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, when the upper baking pan assembly 10 is in the first position, an obtuse angle is formed between the upper baking pan assembly 10 and the lower baking pan assembly 11. This angle can be 100 degrees, 105 degrees, 110 degrees, or other obtuse angles, allowing the user to easily view or flip the food. In one example, the process of opening the upper baking pan assembly 10 from the closed position to the first position is as follows: the upper baking pan assembly 10 flips to a position where a 105-degree angle is formed between the upper baking pan assembly 10 and the lower baking pan assembly 11. Then, the user releases the lid, and the upper baking pan assembly 10 moves down a certain distance under its own gravity to reach stability, forming an angle as shown. Figure 4 The state shown. When the user wants to close the lid, the process of the upper baking tray assembly 10 moving from the first position to the second position is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, the user lifts the upper baking tray assembly 10 a certain distance. When the mating part separates from the limiting part, the user can rotate the upper baking tray assembly 10 to close the lid, thereby allowing the upper baking tray assembly 10 to reach... Figure 7 The location.
[0051] It is understandable that when the upper baking pan assembly 10 is in the first position, the included angle formed between the upper baking pan assembly 10 and the lower baking pan assembly 11 is not limited to an obtuse angle, but can also be an acute angle such as 60 degrees, 70 degrees, 80 degrees, or even 90 degrees, which can be set according to actual needs.
[0052] The limiting component and the mating component can adopt various structures and mating methods, and the limiting of the upper baking tray assembly 10 can be achieved through any of the following methods.
[0053] In a preferred embodiment, in the first position, both the mating member and the limiting member are partially located below the height of the pivot axis 13. The mating member is located inside the limiting member, and the limiting member abuts against the mating member during the rotation of the mating member toward the lower baking pan assembly 11 to restrict the rotation of the mating member. Here, "the mating member is located inside the limiting member" means that, with the center of the lower baking pan assembly 11 as a reference, the distance from the mating member to the center of the lower baking pan assembly 11 is less than the distance from the limiting member to the center of the lower baking pan assembly 11, with the mating member being closer to the center of the lower baking pan assembly 11 as the inner side.
[0054] like Figure 4 As shown, the position of the projection of the pivot axis 13 onto the mating component is illustrated. In the first position, if the upper baking pan assembly 10 is to rotate towards the lower baking pan assembly 11, resulting in an accidental closing of the lid, a rotation trajectory 14 is drawn with a point S at the lower left corner of the mating component as the object. From the rotation trajectory 14, it can be seen that when the user or other person touches the upper baking pan assembly 10, causing the upper baking pan assembly 10 to tend to close the lid, such as... Figure 5 As shown, after point S rotates to a certain angle, it will press against the end face of the limiting component. Due to the stop of the limiting component, rotational interference occurs, and the mating parts cannot continue to rotate. Therefore, the upper baking tray assembly 10 cannot rotate either, thus restricting the upper baking tray assembly 10 from closing. This ensures that the upper baking tray assembly 10 is stable in the first position, providing a safety guarantee for user operation.
[0055] Under normal circumstances, when the upper baking pan assembly 10 switches from the first position to the second position, after the upper baking pan assembly 10 rotates from the first high position of the pivot shaft 13 to cover the lower baking pan assembly 11, the limiting member is set to not interfere with the mating member during the process of the mating member falling to the second low position of the pivot shaft 13 along the floating direction of the pivot shaft 13.
[0056] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the normal closing process is as follows: First, the user needs to lift the upper baking tray assembly 10 to separate the mating parts from the limiting parts. After releasing the limiting parts, the upper baking tray assembly 10 can be rotated to close the lid. Then, under the action of gravity, the upper baking tray assembly 10 will continue to move downwards a certain distance. During this process, the limiting parts will not interfere with the mating parts, thus ensuring smooth closing and the reliability of the machine. Specifically, the position of the axis changes accordingly when the upper baking tray assembly 10 moves up and down. Figure 6 When the central axis reaches the first high position, this first high position can be the highest limit position that the axis can reach, or it can be lower than the highest limit position, as long as it meets the requirement of releasing the limit to facilitate the upper baking tray assembly 10 to close. Figure 7 The central axis reaches the second lowest position, which can be the lowest limit position that the axis can reach, or it can be higher than the lowest limit position, and there is no limitation here.
[0057] Understandably, in Figure 7 From the axis position, the rotation trajectory 14 of point S shows that interference will occur after it rotates to a certain angle. So when the user wants to open the lid again, the user needs to pull the upper baking tray assembly 10 to move the upper baking tray assembly 10 up a certain distance. As the axis moves up, the upper baking tray assembly 10 can be rotated to open.
[0058] In this embodiment, the limiting member is a limiting rib 15, and the mating member is a stop rib 16. In the first position, the limiting member and the mating member stop each other.
[0059] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the combination structure of limiting rib 15 and blocking rib 16 satisfies the premise that the upper baking pan assembly 10 is reliably limited in the first position. The structure is simple and easy to form on existing grilling machines. The existing upper baking pan assembly 10 and lower baking pan assembly 11 can be improved and processed, which has little impact on the overall structure. There is no need to re-mold and manufacture, which can reduce costs.
[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, the baffle 16 extends from the housing of the upper baking pan assembly 10 toward the pivot shaft 13. The upper baking pan assembly 10, for example, has a first oil guide groove 101, and the baffle 16 is disposed between the pivot shaft 13 and the first oil guide groove 101. Figure 2 As shown, the lower baking pan assembly 11, for example, is provided with a second oil guide groove 111, and a limiting rib 15 is disposed between the mounting groove 121 and the second oil guide groove 111. Figure 3 As shown, when the upper baking tray assembly 10 is opened, the condensate or oil on the upper baking tray can flow to the first oil guide groove 101 and then into the second oil guide groove 111, which can prevent it from flowing onto the table and make it more hygienic to use.
[0061] In one embodiment, the end face of the limiting member facing the mating member extends obliquely from top to bottom toward the mating member.
[0062] After the user flips the upper baking tray assembly 10 to the opening angle, the upper baking tray assembly 10 will move down a certain distance under the action of gravity after the user releases the hand. During this process, the inclined limiter end face can play a guiding role to guide the mating parts to slide down, which can reduce the friction between the two, make the movement smooth, and improve the opening efficiency.
[0063] In another preferred embodiment, one of the limiting member and the mating member is a plug groove 17 and the other is a plug post 18. In the first position, the limiting member and the mating member are plugged in and mated.
[0064] By using the insertion and connection of limiting parts and mating parts, the upper baking pan assembly 10 can be reliably limited in the first position. The design form and mating method of the limiting parts and mating parts can be flexibly changed. This is beneficial to select appropriate limiting parts and mating parts for processing according to the actual situation of the existing grilling machine, so as to make full use of the existing structure and space, achieve a reasonable layout, and promote the compact arrangement of the structure.
[0065] In one embodiment, the limiting member is a plug post 18, and the mating member is a downward-facing plug groove 17, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the plug post 18.
[0066] By setting the insertion slot 17 on the upper baking tray assembly 10 with the opening of the insertion slot 17 facing downwards, dust or foreign objects can be prevented from entering the insertion slot 17 when the lid is open, thus affecting the insertion effect of the insertion post 18 and the insertion slot 17. This also ensures the cleanliness of the insertion slot 17 and saves users the amount of cleaning work.
[0067] like Figure 8 or Figure 9 As shown, in the first position, the insertion post 18 and the insertion slot 17 are inserted and limited to prevent the upper baking tray assembly 10 from being accidentally closed. When it is necessary to close the lid normally, simply lift the upper baking tray assembly 10 a certain distance to make the insertion post 18 disengage from the insertion slot 17, and then rotate the upper baking tray assembly 10 to close the lid.
[0068] In one preferred embodiment, there are two limiting members distributed on both sides of the center of the lower baking tray assembly 11, and two mating members are provided, each corresponding to one of the two limiting members.
[0069] like Figure 3 or Figure 8 As shown, whether using a combination of limiting ribs 15 and baffles 16, or a combination of plug-in posts 18 and plug-in slots 17, setting two sets of symmetrically distributed limiting structures can stably limit the upper baking tray assembly 10 to the first position, avoiding accidental closing of the lid. Compared with the use of a single limiting component and mating component, the two sets of limiting structures can distribute the force, reduce the risk of structural components breaking due to excessive force, and help extend the service life of the machine.
[0070] As a preferred implementation method, such as Figure 3 As shown, the lower baking tray assembly 11 is provided with a relief groove 19 extending to the hinge seat 12, which is used for the movement and relief of mating parts. This reduces the restriction on the mating parts during rotation, reduces friction between parts, ensures smooth rotation, reduces wear, and extends the service life of the machine. Preferably, the limiting rib 15 is provided at the end of the relief groove 19 away from the center of the lower baking tray.
[0071] In a preferred embodiment, the upper baking pan assembly 10 has a third position in which the upper baking pan assembly 10 and the lower baking pan assembly 11 form a 180-degree angle.
[0072] In the third position, the upper baking tray assembly 10 and the lower baking tray assembly 11 are fully laid flat, making it convenient for users to wipe the baking trays or perform structural repairs, providing ease of use and improving the user experience.
[0073] In one embodiment, the end of the hinge seat 12 is provided with a limiting part 122, and the upper baking pan assembly 10 is provided with a support rib 20 corresponding to the limiting part 122. In the first position, the support rib 20 abuts against the limiting part 122, the upper baking pan assembly 10 floats upward relative to the lower baking pan assembly 11 so that the support rib 20 disengages from the limiting part 122, and the upper baking pan assembly 10 flips in a direction away from the lower baking pan assembly 11 to switch to the third position.
[0074] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the limiting part 122 extends outward from the end face of the hinge seat 12. In the first position, the support rib 20 abuts against the limiting part 122, and the upper baking tray assembly 10 is supported. Under the limiting action of the support rib 20 and the limiting part 122, the upper baking tray assembly 10 will not accidentally tilt backward, thus avoiding accidental tipping of the upper baking tray assembly 10. Only after the support rib 20 disengages from the limiting part 122 can the upper baking tray assembly 10 be operated to reach the third position, further improving the safety and reliability of the machine.
[0075] Understandably, when the upper baking tray assembly 10 is in the first position, it forms a double limit. One is that the limiter and the mating part cooperate to prevent the upper baking tray assembly 10 from accidentally closing the lid forward. The other is that the support rib 20 cooperates with the limiter part 122 to prevent the upper baking tray assembly 10 from tilting backward. The double limit can effectively prevent the upper baking tray assembly 10 from accidentally rotating and falling and hitting people's hands or objects, thus improving the safety and reliability of the product.
