The inner side of the mounting holes is divided into an upper layer and a lower layer, which are disconnected. The lower end face of the upper layer is the upper abutment surface, and the upper end face of the lower layer is the lower abutment surface. The upper abutment surface has a plurality of upper buckles formed downwards, and the lower abutment surface has a plurality of lower locking holes formed. The plurality of upper buckles and the plurality of lower locking holes are respectively and correspondingly set, and the upper buckles are respectively engaged in the corresponding lower locking holes.

[0006] With the above setup, the ear sleeve is fitted onto the protruding lug of the cookware through the mounting holes that pass through both ends. The upper and lower layers inside the ear sleeve are disconnected and matched one by one with the upper buckle and the lower locking hole, which makes the ear sleeve convenient to use, removable for cleaning, and replaceable.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the lower abutment surface is formed with a plurality of lower buckles, and the upper abutment surface is formed with a plurality of upper buckles; the plurality of lower buckles and the plurality of upper buckles are respectively configured in a one-to-one correspondence, and the lower buckles are respectively engaged in the corresponding upper buckles.

[0008] By setting separate upper and lower clips, the earcups can be locked in a more stable position.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the plurality of upper buckles and the plurality of lower buckles are staggered, with a lower buckle distributed between two adjacent upper buckles and an upper buckle distributed between two adjacent lower buckles.

[0010] The alternating arrangement of upper and lower clips makes the earcup structure more stable, the earcups fit more securely, and they are less likely to fall off.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: the upper buckle includes an upper connecting post, the lower end of the upper connecting post is connected to an upper snap-fit ​​part, the cross-section of the upper snap-fit ​​part is larger than the cross-section of the upper connecting post, the lower snap hole includes a lower snap groove, the upper port of the lower snap groove extends inward to form a lower limiting ring, when the upper buckle is snapped into the lower snap hole, the upper snap-fit ​​part is set in the lower snap groove, the upper connecting post is sleeved in the lower limiting ring, and the lower limiting ring is set at the upper end of the upper snap-fit ​​part.

[0012] Because the earcups are made of flexible material and are easily deformed, this buckle structure ensures a more stable fit between the upper buckle and the lower slot, preventing them from falling off.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: the lower buckle includes a lower connecting post, the upper end of the lower connecting post is connected to a lower locking part, the cross-section of the lower locking part is larger than the cross-section of the lower connecting post, the upper locking hole includes an upper locking groove, the lower end of the upper locking groove extends inward to form an upper limit ring, when the lower buckle is engaged in the upper locking hole, the lower locking part is set in the upper locking groove, the lower connecting post is sleeved in the upper limit ring, and the upper limit ring is set at the lower end of the lower locking part.

[0014] The present invention is further configured such that: a plurality of limiting grooves are formed in the mounting hole.

[0015] By setting the limiting groove, which matches the limiting protrusion on the lug, the ear cover can be more stably fitted onto the lug, making the structure more stable.

[0016] The present invention is further configured such that the upper and lower surfaces of the ear cover body are formed with anti-slip texture.

[0017] The present invention is further configured such that the main body of the ear cover is generally arc-shaped or U-shaped.

[0018] The present invention is further configured such that the main body of the ear cover is made of a flexible material.

[0019] The present invention is further configured such that the main body of the ear cover is made of silicone.

[0020] The outstanding and beneficial technical effects of this invention compared with the prior art are: the ear cover is fitted onto the convex lug of the pot through the mounting hole that runs through both ends, and the upper and lower layers inside the ear cover are disconnected and set one by one with the upper buckle and the lower buckle hole, so as to realize the advantages of the ear cover being convenient to use, removable for cleaning, and replaceable.
