Detailed Implementation Methods

[0029] To make the purpose, solution, and beneficial effects of this application clearer, the application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a stove pot rack for supporting pots. The stove pot rack includes a base ring 1 and a plurality of support feet 2 arranged circumferentially on the base ring 1. The base ring 1 is provided with mounting grooves 3 extending radially therefrom and slidably connected to the support feet 2. In this application, radial refers to the direction from a point on the base ring 1 to its geometric center. The support feet 2 can slide radially within the mounting grooves 3 to accommodate pots of different sizes.

[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the mounting groove 3 comprises a limiting structure 30 which can limit the support leg 2 in different position states, in which the support leg 2 has different distances from the center of the bottom ring 1. Thus, the support leg 2 can be fixed in a specific position to stably support the pot.

[0032] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the side wall of the mounting groove 3 is provided with a connecting channel 4, and the limiting assembly 30 comprises a locating bead 31 installed in the connecting channel 4. The support leg 2 is provided with a plurality of recesses 20 arranged along the radial direction of the bottom ring 1 and matched with the locating bead 31. The number of the recesses 20 of each support leg 2 should not be less than two. The locating bead 31 comprises a first position partially protruding outward from the connecting channel 4, as shown in Figure 6 When in this position, the recess 20 is matched with the locating bead 31 to limit the displacement of the support leg 2. The shape and size of the recess 20 are similar to the part of the locating bead 31 protruding from the connecting channel 4 to make the locking more stable.

[0033] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the locating bead 31 further comprises a second position hidden in the connecting channel 4, in which the locating bead 31 is disengaged from the recess 20, and the support leg 2 is no longer limited and can slide relative to the mounting groove 3.

[0034] Thus, by controlling the locating bead 31 in different positions, the locking and switching of the support leg 2 in different radial positions can be realized, which is convenient for the user to adjust the support leg 2 for pots of different sizes.

[0035] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 5 The limiting assembly 30 further comprises a resilient member 32 in the connecting channel 4 and in abutting contact with the locating bead 31. When the locating bead 31 is in the first position as shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2 The resilient member 32 is in a compressed state, and the locating bead 31 is subjected to a force towards the mounting groove 3 and protrudes from the connecting channel 4, so that it can be more stably locked in the recess 20. Optionally, the resilient member 32 is configured as a spring.

[0036] Further, when the user wants to adjust the position of the supporting leg 2, the supporting leg 2 can be pushed in the radial direction, the concave pit 20 starts to press the positioning wave bead 31 and hide it in the connecting channel 4, i.e. the second position, at this time the supporting leg 2 can slide relatively freely. With the sliding of the supporting leg 2, the next concave pit 20 comes to the position corresponding to the positioning wave bead 31, and the positioning wave bead 31 enters the concave pit 20 under the pushing of the elastic piece 32, thereby limiting the displacement of the supporting leg 2. In addition, in order to make the pushing of the supporting leg 2 more smooth, the positioning wave bead 31 is configured in a spherical shape, and correspondingly, the concave pit 20 is configured in a semispherical shape to cooperate with the part of the positioning wave bead 31 protruding from the connecting channel 4.

[0037] Therefore, the user can adjust the length of the pot rack by pushing and sliding the supporting leg 2.

[0038] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 5 The limiting component 30 further comprises a limiting column 33 installed in the connecting channel 4 for accommodating the positioning wave bead 31 and the elastic piece 32, and the limiting column 33 is provided with a circular opening 331 at one end close to the side wall of the installation slot 3, which can allow the positioning wave bead 31 to protrude, and the positioning wave bead 31 and the elastic piece 32 are accommodated in the limiting column 33 to form an integral whole, which is conducive to the quick and convenient installation in the connecting channel 4. The circular opening 331 is aligned with the entrance of the connecting channel 4. The diameter of the circular opening 331 is smaller than the diameter of the positioning wave bead 31, so as to avoid the positioning wave bead 31 from falling off from the limiting column 33.

[0039] Further, in order to improve the stability of the abutment between the positioning wave bead 31 and the elastic piece 32, a supporting piece (not shown) is arranged between the positioning wave bead 31 and the elastic piece 32, and the side of the supporting piece facing the positioning wave bead 31 is provided with a groove. The shape of the groove is adapted to the positioning wave bead 31.

[0040] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the bottom ring 1 is configured to be separable into at least three ring parts 10 connected in sequence along the installation slot 3, and the connecting channel 4 can accommodate the limiting component 30 when the ring parts 10 are in a separated state. The specific installation process is as follows:

[0041] S1: When the ring parts 10 are not connected, the connecting channel 4 is in a completely exposed state, and the limiting component 30, such as the limiting column 33, is easy to be inserted into the connecting channel 4;

[0042] S2: The ring parts 10 with the installed limiting component 30 are connected to form a complete bottom ring 1, and the connection mode is not limited.

[0043] In another alternative embodiment, the alignment beads 31 and the elastic member 32 are directly installed in the connecting channel 4, for example, from the bottom gap (not shown) of the connecting channel 4. The elastic member 32 is in a compressed state in the connecting channel 4 so that the alignment beads 31 protrude from the opening of the connecting channel 4, and the diameter of the opening is smaller than the diameter of the alignment beads 31.

[0044] The installation of the limiting assembly 30 and the connecting channel 4 is not limited to the above manner.

[0045] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, the support feet 2 are at least three and evenly arranged along the circumference of the bottom ring 1. Each support foot 2 comprises a supporting part 21 for supporting a pot and a connecting part 22 in sliding connection with the installation groove 3, and the recess 20 is arranged on the connecting part 22. When the connecting part 22 slides in the installation groove 3, the distance between the supporting part 21 and the center of the bottom ring 1 in the radial direction changes.

[0046] The present application also provides a stove comprising the above stove pot support.

[0047] The components of different embodiments can be combined in any feasible manner to achieve the purpose of the present application.

[0048] It should be noted that the present application should not be construed as being limited to the above described embodiments, but should be construed as covering all possible embodiments falling within the scope of the present application as defined by the claims in conjunction with the description. Therefore, any simple modification, equivalent change and modification made to the above embodiments without departing from the technical solution of the present application, according to the technical essence of the present application, all belong to the protection scope of the technical solution of the present application.
