Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cooking appliances, and in particular to a cookware. Background Technology
[0002] As cookware evolves, user demands for it have increased. Beyond cooking, cookware now demands a higher level of user experience, lifespan, and safety. Existing cookware cannot prevent overflow during cooking; carelessness can cause overflows, and the resulting foam, with nowhere to dissipate, causes broth and other liquids to spill outside the pot, affecting the cooking experience, potentially damaging the cookware, and even posing serious safety hazards. Utility Model Content
[0003] This application provides a cookware designed to improve spill prevention.
[0004] This application provides a cookware, which includes a lid and a body.
[0005] The pot lid includes a body and a first extension, the first extension being connected to the outer periphery of the body, and a collection space being provided between the first extension and the body.
[0006] The pot body has a receiving cavity. When the pot lid is closed on the opening of the pot body, it can seal the receiving cavity.
[0007] Wherein, along the radial direction of the pot, the maximum size of the collection space is L, and the diameter of the receiving cavity is D, 0.1≤L / D≤0.45.
[0008] In this solution, during cooking, foam is generated when the liquid in the receiving cavity boils, posing a risk of food overflowing with the liquid. The collection space is used to collect the overflowing foam and / or food, thereby reducing the risk of foam and / or food spilling onto the countertop and improving the user experience. When the L / D ratio is too small, the collection space is relatively small, and when the liquid in the receiving cavity boils, the collection space will be quickly filled with overflowing foam and / or food, still posing a risk of foam and / or food overflowing from the collection space, affecting the spill prevention effect. When the L / D ratio is too large, the size of the collection space is too large compared to the size of the pot, affecting the aesthetics of the cookware and increasing the manufacturing cost of the lid. In this embodiment, when 0.1 ≤ L / D ≤ 0.45, the size of the collection space is moderate, achieving a good spill prevention effect while also improving the aesthetics of the cookware and enhancing the user experience.
[0009] In one possible implementation, the first extension is integrally formed with the body, and the first extension extends outward relative to the body along the height direction of the cookware.
[0010] In this design, the one-piece molding ensures the integrity of the lid structure, preventing installation difficulties and cleaning problems that would occur if the first extension and the main body were separate. Specifically, the first extension extends outwards relative to the main body along the height of the pot, thus giving the collection space enclosed by the first extension and the main body a certain dimension along the height of the pot, thereby improving the overflow prevention effect of the collection space.
[0011] In one possible implementation, the collection space is annular. The annular structure, unlike other shapes, ensures that foam and liquid can be collected in any direction during the overflow process, thereby further improving the anti-overflow performance of the cookware.
[0012] In one possible implementation, the collection space is an open structure. The end of the collection space facing away from the pot body has an opening, allowing the interior of the collection space to communicate with the external environment, thus enabling the collection space to collect more foam and / or food. When foam enters the collection space, the larger contact area between the foam and air promotes defoaming, further reducing the risk of foam overflowing from the collection space. Additionally, the open structure allows the user to easily observe the amount of foam and / or food in the collection space, facilitating the cleaning of the pot lid.
[0013] In one possible implementation, the first extension has a first flange that curls inward into the collection space. When foam enters the collection space and comes into contact with the first flange, the first flange can promote defoaming, thereby reducing the risk of foam overflowing the collection space. Furthermore, when foam and / or food overflow from the collection space, the first flange can act as a barrier, thereby further improving the spill prevention effect.
[0014] In one possible implementation, the pot body has a stepped portion, and the bottom of the body has at least two protrusions spaced apart circumferentially along the lid, with a first gap formed between at least two adjacent protrusions, the protrusions being used to abut against the stepped portion.
[0015] In this design, the protrusion can raise the lid, creating a gap between the lid and the pot body when they are closed. During cooking, the foam from the boiling liquid inside the pot and / or the food overflows into the collection space through this gap, thus preventing spillage.
[0016] In one possible implementation, the height of the protrusion is H, where 0.3mm ≤ H ≤ 20mm. When H is too small, the gap between the lid and the pot body is too small, making it easy to get clogged. This prevents the foam and / or food in the receiving cavity from entering the collection space in time, causing violent boiling inside the pot and affecting the pot's anti-overflow effect. When H is too large, the gap between the lid and the pot body is too large, resulting in poor sealing when the lid is closed. This leads to poor braising effect during cooking and makes it easier for the pot to dry out, affecting the taste of the food. In this embodiment, when the height H of the protrusion satisfies 0.3mm ≤ H ≤ 20mm, the gap between the lid and the pot body is moderate when the lid is closed, allowing the foam and / or food in the receiving cavity to be quickly discharged into the collection space, improving the anti-overflow effect and ensuring a good seal when the lid and pot body are closed, thus improving the braising effect of the pot.
[0017] In one possible implementation, the pot body further includes a second extension that extends relative to the stepped portion in a direction away from the receiving cavity;
[0018] When the lid is closed on the pot body, the height of the first extension is lower than the height of the second extension.
[0019] In this design, when the lid is closed on the pot body, the height of the first extension is lower than the height of the second extension, that is, the height of the first flange is lower than the height of the second flange. When there is too much foam and / or food in the collection space, the higher second flange can act as a barrier, thereby reducing the risk of foam and / or food overflowing over the second flange and further improving the anti-overflow effect of the pot.
[0020] In one possible implementation, a second gap is provided between the first extension and the second extension along the radial direction of the cookware. This second gap allows foam and / or food to pass through, enabling them to enter the collection space and further improving the spill prevention effect.
[0021] In one possible implementation, the body has a transparent area. This design allows the cook to observe the contents of the pot during use, facilitating understanding of the cooking process.

[0046] It should be understood that the described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments in this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0048] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.
[0049] In one specific embodiment, this application provides a cookware, with reference to... Figure 1 As shown, the cookware includes a lid 1 and a pot body 2, with the lid 1 able to cover the opening of the pot body 2. The cookware type can be any of the following: soup pot, stew pot, saucepan, milk pot, etc.
[0050] In one specific embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 2-4 As shown, the pot lid 1 includes a body 11 and a first extension 12. The first extension 12 is connected to the outer periphery of the body 11, and a collection space 13 is provided between the first extension 12 and the body 11. During cooking, foam is generated when the liquid in the receiving cavity boils, and there is a risk that the food may overflow with the liquid. The collection space 13 is used to collect the foam and / or food that overflows during cooking, thereby reducing the risk of foam and / or food spilling and soiling the countertop, and improving the user experience.
[0051] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the pot body 2 has a receiving cavity 21, and when the pot lid 1 is closed on the opening of the pot body 2, it can seal the receiving cavity 21.
[0052] refer to Figure 3 As shown, the maximum dimension of the collection space 13 along the radial direction of the cookware is L. (Reference) Figure 4As shown, the diameter of the receiving cavity 21 of the pot body 2 is D. It should be noted that the radial direction of the pot refers to the diameter direction when the cross-section of the pot body 2 is circular, and the diameter of the receiving cavity 21 refers to the size of the pot body 2 when its cross-section is circular. That is, when the cross-section of the pot body 2 is a shape other than circular (e.g., square), the radial direction of the pot can be a direction perpendicular to the height direction of the pot, and the diameter of the receiving cavity 21 can be the size of the receiving cavity 21 in a plane perpendicular to the height direction of the pot. For example, when the cross-sectional shape of the pot body 2 is rectangular, the width of the receiving cavity 21 of the pot body 2 can be D.
[0053] Where 0.1≤L / D≤0.45, for example, L / D can be 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.333, 0.411, 0.45, etc.
[0054] When the L / D ratio is too small, the collection space 13 is relatively small. When the liquid in the receiving cavity 21 boils, the collection space 13 will be quickly filled by overflowing foam and / or food, and there is still a risk that foam and / or food will overflow from the collection space 13, affecting the anti-overflow effect. When the L / D ratio is too large, the size of the collection space 13 is too large compared to the size of the pot body 2, affecting the aesthetics of the cookware and increasing the manufacturing cost of the lid 1. In the embodiment of this application, when 0.1≤L / D≤0.45, the size of the collection space 13 is moderate. While achieving a good anti-overflow effect, it can also improve the aesthetics of the cookware and enhance the user experience.
[0055] In one specific embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the collection space 13 is annular. The annular structure, unlike other shapes, ensures that foam and liquid can be collected from any direction during the overflow process, thereby further improving the anti-overflow performance of the cookware.
[0056] In one specific embodiment, when the body 11 of the pot lid 1 is circular, the collection space 13 can be annular; when the body 11 of the pot lid 1 is of other shapes, the collection space 13 can be of other shapes. For example, when the body 11 of the pot lid 1 is rectangular, the collection space 13 is annular and forms a rectangular structure.
[0057] In one specific embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 1-3As shown, the collection space 13 has an open structure, meaning that the end of the collection space 13 facing away from the pot body 2 has an opening, allowing the interior of the collection space 13 to communicate with the external environment. This enables the collection space 13 to collect more foam and / or food. When foam enters the collection space 13, the contact area between the foam and the air is larger, which promotes defoaming and further reduces the risk of foam overflowing from the collection space 13. In addition, the open structure makes it easy for users to observe the amount of foam and / or food in the collection space 13, thus facilitating the user's cleaning of the pot lid.
[0058] refer to Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 for Figure 3 A partially enlarged schematic diagram of part A. In one specific embodiment, the first extension 12 is integrally formed with the body 11. This integral design ensures the integrity of the lid 1 structure and prevents problems such as installation difficulties and cleaning difficulties at the connection point when the first extension 12 and the body 11 are separate. The first extension 12 extends outward relative to the body 11 along the height direction of the pot, thereby giving the collection space 13 formed by the first extension 12 and the body 11 a certain size along the height direction of the pot, thus improving the overflow prevention effect of the collection space 13.
[0059] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first extension 12 has a first flange 121 that curls into the collection space 13, meaning that the collection space 13 contains the first flange 121. When foam enters the collection space 13 and comes into contact with the first flange 121, the first flange 121 can promote defoaming, thereby reducing the risk of foam overflowing from the collection space 13. Furthermore, when foam and / or food overflow from the collection space 13, the first flange 121 can act as a barrier, thereby further improving the spill prevention effect.
[0060] In the above embodiments, reference is made to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the bottom of the body 11 of the pot lid 1 has at least two spaced-apart protrusions 111, which are arranged circumferentially around the pot lid, forming a first gap 112 between adjacent protrusions 111. (Reference) Figure 5 As shown, the pot body 2 includes a side wall 24 that surrounds the aforementioned receiving cavity 21, and the pot body 2 has a stepped portion 22 connected to the side wall 24. (Refer to...) Figure 6 As shown, the protrusion 111 at the bottom of the body 11 of the pot lid 1 abuts against the step 22.
[0061] refer to Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 for Figure 2A partially enlarged schematic diagram of part B. The protrusion 111 can raise the lid 1, so that there is a certain gap when the lid 1 and the pot body 2 are closed. During the cooking process, the foam and / or food of the liquid in the pot body 2 after boiling will overflow into the collection space 13 through this gap, thereby promoting spill prevention.
[0062] The protrusion 111 can be in the shape of a dot, a cylinder, a rectangle, etc. The shape of the protrusion 111 is not specifically limited in this embodiment, as long as there is a gap between at least two adjacent protrusions 111, so as to ensure that foam and / or food can be discharged from the receiving cavity 21 into the collection space 13.
[0063] In one specific embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 4 As shown, the height of the protrusion 111 is H, 0.3mm≤H≤20mm. For example, H can be 0.5mm, 2mm, 8mm, 12mm, 20mm, etc.
[0064] When H is too small, the gap between the lid 1 and the pot body 2 is too small and easily blocked, causing the foam and / or food in the receiving cavity 21 to not enter the collecting space 13 in time, resulting in violent boiling in the pot body 2 and affecting the anti-overflow effect of the pot. When H is too large, the gap between the lid 1 and the pot body 2 is too large, resulting in poor sealing when the lid 1 is closed, leading to poor braising effect during cooking and making it easier for the pot to dry out, affecting the taste of the food. In this embodiment, when the height H of the protrusion 111 satisfies 0.3mm≤H≤20mm, when the lid 1 is closed on the pot body 2, the gap between the two is moderate, which allows the foam and / or food in the receiving cavity 21 to be quickly discharged into the collecting space 13, improving the anti-overflow effect and ensuring good sealing when the lid 1 and the pot body 2 are closed, thus improving the braising effect of the pot.
[0065] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the pot body 2 also includes a second extension 23, which extends relative to the step portion 22 in a direction away from the receiving cavity 21.
[0066] refer to Figure 6 As shown, when the lid 1 is closed on the pot body 2, the height of the first extension 12 is lower than the height of the second extension 23, that is, the height of the first flange 121 is lower than the height of the second flange 231. When there is too much foam and / or food in the collection space 13, the higher second flange 231 can play a blocking role, thereby reducing the risk of foam and / or food overflowing over the second flange 231, and further improving the anti-overflow effect of the pot.
[0067] In one specific embodiment, reference is made to... Figure 6As shown, along the radial direction of the cookware, there is a second gap 3 between the first extension 12 and the second extension 23, which is used for the passage of foam and / or food, so that the foam and / or food can enter the collection space 13.
[0068] Specifically, when the liquid in the receiving cavity 13 boils and produces foam, the foam and / or food overflows through the first gap 112 between the adjacent protrusions 111 into the space between the lid 1 and the step 22 of the pot body 2. When there is a large amount of foam and / or food between the lid 1 and the step 22, it can enter the collection space 13 through the second gap 3 between the first extension 12 and the second extension 23 (the direction of movement of the foam and / or food is as follows). Figure 6 (As shown by the red arrow).
[0069] In one specific embodiment, the pot lid 1 body 11 has a transparent area, allowing the cook to observe the situation inside the pot during use and thus understand the cooking process.
[0070] In summary, this application addresses safety issues during cooking by adding a collection space in the pot lid to collect overflowing foam and / or liquid, thereby increasing the cook's reaction time after boiling occurs.
