Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of pressure cooker exhaust, and specifically relates to a pressure relief valve for pressure cookers. Background Technology
[0002] Pressure cookers can be categorized into pressure cookers, pressure frying pans, etc. They fall between regular pots and pressure cookers. Pressure cookers typically operate at pressures below 1.2 atmospheres. Under this pressure, food cooks more easily than in a regular pot, and the lid can be opened at any time during operation. The pressure relief valve on a pressure cooker is a device used to regulate the pressure inside the pot. Its main function is to automatically or manually release steam and pressure during cooking to ensure safety and optimal cooking results.
[0003] A Chinese patent discloses a pressure relief valve for a micro-pressure cooker, comprising a valve cap sleeved on the upper outer side of a valve stem, with a pressure spring fixed to the upper end of the valve stem. One end of the pressure spring is connected to a sealing bead, which is located inside the valve cap. This pressure relief valve releases pressure and exhausts gas by pushing the valve up, allowing a certain amount of gas to escape before it falls back down to seal. This repeated up-and-down movement and sealing action, utilizing the sealing bead with the pressure spring, regulates the pressure inside and outside the micro-pressure cooker, preventing damage due to large pressure differences. Furthermore, during heating, guide blocks and guide grooves installed at equal angles on the surface facilitate gas escape from gaps, preventing excessive internal pressure from causing the pressure relief valve to rise and the sealing ring to tightly adhere to the inside of the lid, thus improving safety.
[0004] The defects in the above technical solution are: it cannot achieve manual venting, thus failing to realize the function of quick lid opening; and in the above structure, when the gas pressure inside the pot is too high, the sealing bead is easily pushed up and comes into contact with the hole, thus preventing venting and posing a safety hazard.

Detailed Implementation
[0022] Example
[0023] refer to Figures 1 to 4The pressure relief valve of the micro pressure cooker in this embodiment includes a pot lid 1. A main exhaust pipe 2 is provided at the upper end of the pot lid 1. A pressure relief head 3 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the main exhaust pipe 2. An exhaust assembly 4 is fixedly connected to the outside of the main exhaust pipe 2. The exhaust assembly 4 includes an exhaust side pipe 41 provided outside the main exhaust pipe 2. An exhaust branch pipe 42 is connected through the upper end of the exhaust side pipe 41. Exhaust sealing rings 43 are fixedly connected to both sides of the exhaust support rod 42 inside the exhaust side pipe 41. A sealing plug 44 is slidably connected to the outer end of the exhaust side pipe 41. An exhaust sealing plate 45 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the sealing plug 44 inside the exhaust side pipe 41. The exhaust sealing plate 45 cooperates with the exhaust sealing ring 43 to achieve sealing. An operating head 46 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the sealing plug 44. The operating head is detachably connected to the outer end of the exhaust side pipe.
[0024] When the operating head is connected to the outer end of the exhaust pipe, the sealing plate 45 is pressed against the inner exhaust sealing ring 43, and the exhaust branch pipe 42 is closed; when the operating head is disconnected from the outer end of the exhaust pipe, the sealing plate 45 is disconnected from the inner exhaust sealing ring 43, and the exhaust branch pipe 42 is opened.
[0025] refer to Figures 1-3 The pressure relief head 3 includes a pressure relief chamber 31 located at the upper end of the main exhaust pipe 2. The pressure relief chamber 31 is connected to the main exhaust pipe 2. An adjusting screw hole 33 is provided at the upper end of the pressure relief chamber 31. An adjusting screw 34 is threadedly connected to the inside of the adjusting screw hole 33. An adjusting head 35 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the adjusting screw 34. A mounting plate 36 is rotatably connected to the other end of the adjusting screw 34. A spring 37 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the mounting plate 36. A pressure relief plate 38 is fixedly connected to the other end of the spring 37. The pressure relief plate 38 is movably connected to the bottom of the pressure relief chamber 31. Multiple pressure relief holes 32 are provided on the outer side of the pressure relief chamber 31. As the gas pressure increases under heating, when it reaches a certain pressure, the spring force of spring 37 becomes less than the gas pressure, and the pressure relief plate 38 is pushed open to release the gas. Then, the gas enters the interior of the pressure relief chamber 31 and is discharged through the pressure relief hole 32. When releasing gas, as the gas pressure changes, when the gas pressure is less than the spring force of spring 37, the pressure relief plate 38 adheres to the bottom of the pressure relief chamber 31 to prevent air leakage. At the same time, the adjusting screw 34 can be rotated to drive the mounting plate 36 to apply pressure to spring 37, thereby increasing the spring force of spring 37 and thus increasing the gas pressure storage inside the cookware.
[0026] refer to Figure 3The lower end of the pressure relief plate 38 is inserted into the bottom of the pressure relief chamber 31. The lower end of the pressure relief plate 38 is fixedly connected to the upper sealing block 14. The bottom of the pressure relief chamber 31 is provided with an upper sealing groove 15, which is inserted into the upper sealing block 14. The upper sealing groove 15 and the upper sealing block 14 are designed to prevent air leakage inside the pressure relief chamber 31 when the internal pressure of the cookware is insufficient, thereby increasing the pressure of the cookware.
[0027] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The upper end of the pot lid 1 is fixedly connected to the mounting head 5. The interior of the mounting head 5 is threadedly connected to the outer surface of the exhaust main pipe 2. The interior of the mounting head 5 is provided with a mounting screw hole 6. The lower end of the exhaust main pipe 2 is provided with a mounting thread 7. The mounting thread 7 is threadedly connected to the mounting screw hole 6. The mounting screw hole 6 and the mounting thread 7 allow the pressure relief valve to be disassembled and assembled during use, making it more convenient to maintain the pressure relief valve.
[0028] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The outer surface of the exhaust main pipe 2 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting thread 7 with a lower sealing plate 8.

The interior of the mounting head 5 is provided with lower sealing grooves 10 on the outer side of the mounting screw hole 6. The lower sealing grooves 10 and the lower sealing blocks 9 are inserted into each other. The lower sealing grooves 10 and the lower sealing plate 8 can be used to seal the connection of the pressure relief valve to prevent air leakage at the connection and thus affect the pressure of the cookware.
[0029] refer to Figure 4 The inner side of the operating head 46 is threadedly connected to the outer end of the exhaust pipe 41. The other end of the exhaust pipe 41 is fixedly connected to a threaded sleeve 16. The inner side of the operating head 46 is provided with an internal thread 17, which is threadedly connected to the threaded sleeve 16. The threaded sleeve 16 and the internal thread 17 are designed to fix the sealing plug 44 during use, thereby preventing air leakage when pressurizing the inside of the pot.
[0030] refer to Figure 2 An installation edge 11 is fixedly connected to the upper outer side of the exhaust main pipe 2. Each installation edge 11 has an installation through hole 12. An installation screw 13 is inserted into the installation through hole 12. The installation screw 13 passes through the installation through hole 12 and is threadedly connected to the pressure relief chamber 31. The installation screw 13 and the installation edge 11 allow the pressure relief head 3 to be disassembled and assembled, making it more convenient to disassemble and assemble the pressure relief head 3 during maintenance.
[0031] Operating principle and advantages: First, the lid 1 is installed on the cookware. Then, the pressure relief valve can be installed through the mounting screw hole 6 and the mounting thread 7. After installation, the sealing plug 44 can be fixed through the connecting threaded sleeve 16 and the connecting internal thread 17, thus preventing air leakage when pressurizing the inside of the cookware. Then, the device can be used normally. When the cookware is used, the internal air pressure continuously increases under heating. When the pressure increases to a certain level, the elastic force of the spring 37 is less than the air pressure, and the pressure relief plate 38 will be pushed open to release the air. Then, the gas will enter the interior of the pressure relief chamber 31 and be discharged through the pressure relief hole 32. During the release, as the air pressure changes and is less than the elastic force of the spring 37, the pressure relief plate 38 fits against the bottom of the pressure relief chamber 31 to prevent air leakage. Simultaneously, by rotating the adjusting screw 34, the adjusting screw 34 drives the mounting plate 36 to apply pressure to the spring 37, thereby increasing the elasticity of the spring 37 during pressure application, which in turn increases the gas pressure storage inside the pot. At the same time, when it is necessary to open the pot lid 1 to release gas during use, the operating head 46 is turned to make the connecting internal thread 17 contact the connecting threaded cylinder 16 for threaded connection, so that the sealing plug 44 can be movably inserted into the other end of the exhaust side pipe 41. Then, the sealing plug 44 is pulled outward to pull the exhaust sealing plate 45 to the other side of the exhaust branch pipe 42. Then, the gas inside the pot will enter the interior of the exhaust branch pipe 42 through the exhaust side pipe 41 for exhaust effect, thereby enabling effective exhaust effect inside the pot during use. This increases the safety of using the pot by opening the pot lid 1 after exhaust is completed.
