[0024] The accompanying drawings of the embodiments of this utility model provide a coordinate system XYZ, where the positive direction of the X-axis represents the left and the negative direction of the X-axis represents the right, the positive direction of the Y-axis represents the front and the negative direction of the Y-axis represents the back, the positive direction of the Z-axis represents the top and the negative direction of the Z-axis represents the bottom.
[0025] This utility model embodiment provides a folding handle, combined with Figure 1-6 As shown, the device includes a handle body 1, a fixed base 2, and a locking member 3 that passes through both the handle body 1 and the fixed base 2. The handle body 1 and the fixed base 2 are rotatably connected to form a rotation axis. The axis of the locking member 3 is parallel to the rotation axis. The locking member 3 is slidably connected to the handle body 1 and rotates around the rotation axis. The locking member 3 can move along its own axis to lock / unlock the sliding relationship with the handle body 1. When locked, the position between the locking member 3 and the handle body 1 is fixed, and the handle body 1 cannot rotate. When unlocked, the locking member 3 can slide relative to the handle body 1, allowing the handle body 1 to rotate and fold.
[0026] like Figure 1 and 2 As shown, in this embodiment, a connecting rod 6 is also included. The handle body 1 and the fixed base 2 are hinged together by the connecting rod 6, and the rotation axis is the central axis of the connecting rod 6. When the handle body 1 rotates relative to the fixed base 2, the locking member 3 needs to rotate around the connecting rod 6. When the position of the locking member 3 is locked, the handle body 1 is also locked. The fixed base 2 is fixedly connected to the pot body 5 so that the handle body 1 can rotate relative to the pot body 5 to adjust the usage angle.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the folding handle in this utility model, by setting the handle body 1, the fixed base 2 and the locking part 3 in cooperation, allows the handle body 1 to rotate relative to the fixed base 2 to adjust the angle. It has a simple structure, is easy to operate and has low cost.
[0028] Optionally, the locking member 3 includes a connecting rod portion 34 and an abutment portion 35. A spring 4 is sleeved on the connecting rod portion 34. A receiving cavity 21 is provided on the fixing seat 2. The spring 4 is accommodated in the receiving cavity 21. The two ends of the spring 4 abut against the abutment portion 35 and the inner wall of the receiving cavity 21, respectively. The spring 4 is used to axially reset the locking member 3.
[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, when the locking member 3 is pressed to unlock, the spring 4 is compressed; when the locking member 3 is released, the spring 4 rebounds and drives the locking member 3 to reset and relock.
[0030] Optionally, the handle body 1 is provided with a plurality of gear holes, and a first slide groove 111 is connected between the gear holes. The diameter of the gear hole is larger than the width of the first slide groove 111. The locking member 3 includes a limiting part 31 and a sliding part 32 arranged coaxially. The gear hole and the limiting part 31 are adapted to each other, and the first slide groove 111 and the sliding part 32 are adapted to each other. When the locking member 3 is pressed to disengage the limiting part 31 from the gear hole, the sliding part 32 can slide in the first slide groove 111 to move to other gear holes.
[0031] like Figure 2 , 4 As shown in Figure 5, in this embodiment, the first slide groove 111 is arc-shaped and the gear holes are all circular. When the limiting part 31 is limited to any gear hole, the width difference between the gear hole and the first slide groove 111 plays a limiting role, so that the locking part 3 and the handle body 1 are locked and cannot be rotated.
[0032] like Figure 2 and 3 As shown, optionally, the gear shift hole includes a first gear shift hole 112, a second gear shift hole 113, and a third gear shift hole 114. When the limiting part 31 is limited in the first gear shift hole 112, the handle body 1 is in a fully folded state; when the limiting part 31 is limited in the second gear shift hole 113, the handle body 1 is in a half-folded state; when the limiting part 31 is limited in the third gear shift hole 114, the handle body 1 and the fixing base 2 are in an unfolded state.
[0033] Optionally, the first gear hole 112 and the third gear hole 114 are located at the same vertical height, and the second gear hole 113 is located on the perpendicular bisector of the line connecting the first gear hole 112 and the third gear hole 114.
[0034] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the limiting part 31 is located in the first gear hole 112. At this time, the handle body 1 is folded above the pot body 5 to reduce the space occupied. When the limiting part 31 is located in the second gear hole 113, the handle body 1 can be placed vertically, increasing the application scenarios. The entire pot body 5 can be hung up and stored through the handle body 1.
[0035] Optionally, one end of the locking member 3 is provided with a pressing part 33, the diameter of the pressing part 33 is greater than the width of the first sliding groove 111, and the sliding part 32 is located between the limiting part 31 and the pressing part 33.
[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the pressing part 33 is circular, and the sliding part 32 is located between the limiting part 31 and the pressing part 33, which can make the structure more stable.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the handle body 1 includes a first sidewall 11 and a second sidewall 12, the fixing seat 2 is located between the first sidewall 11 and the second sidewall 12, the first slide groove 111 and the gear hole are provided on the first sidewall 11, and the second sidewall 12 is provided with a second slide groove 121, the second slide groove 121 being arc-shaped.
[0038] Optionally, a nut 36 is connected to one end of the locking member 3 near the second sidewall 12. The width of the nut 36 is greater than the width of the second slide groove 121. The nut 36 is adapted to abut against the second sidewall 12 to restrict the movement of the locking member 3.
[0039] like Figure 4 and 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the nut 36 can limit the axial movement distance of the locking member 3 when the spring 4 is reset, preventing it from disengaging.
[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, optionally, one end of the handle body 1 is an arc-shaped wall 13, and the fixed base 2 is provided with an arc-shaped guide part 22. When the handle body 1 is unfolded, the guide part 22 abuts against the arc-shaped wall 13.
[0041] Another embodiment of this utility model provides a cookware including a folding handle as described above.
