Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchenware technology, and in particular to a microwave cooker. Background Technology

[0002] Microwave pots with outer shells commonly found on the market usually have a microwave absorption layer on the bottom of the pot. When the microwave absorption layer absorbs microwaves for heating, the air between the outer shell and the pot is also heated, resulting in high pressure. Since there is no effective pressure relief measure, microwave pots with outer shells commonly found on the market pose a safety hazard.

[0003] It is evident that existing technologies still need improvement and enhancement. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a microwave oven with the advantage of safe pressure relief, so as to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A microwave cooker includes an outer shell, a pot body, and a lid that works in conjunction with the pot body. The cooker is characterized by a fixing structure between the outer shell and the pot body, the pot body being made of metal, a microwave absorbing layer fixed to the bottom surface of the pot body, and the fixing structure creating a gap between the outer shell and the pot body, allowing hot air between them to escape through the gap during microwave heating.

[0007] The fixing structure is a rib, which abuts against the outer surface of the pot.

[0008] The lid is made of metal, with a handle at the top and an insulating ring fitted around the edge of the lid to fit the pot body. The lid has a vent, and the microwave absorption layer is covered with a base adhesive.

[0009] The outer shell is made of an elastic material, and the distance between the ribs and the inner wall of the outer shell is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the pot.

[0010] The inner wall of the outer shell is provided with a protrusion, the outer shell is provided with a handle, the handle is provided with a clip, the fixing structure is composed of the protrusion and the clip, the clip is formed by the outer shell piece and the base piece being fitted together, the outer shell piece is fixed to the handle, and the tail end of the base piece is connected to an elastic element.

[0011] The upper part of the outer shell is trapezoidal, and the upper surface of the trapezoid is provided with anti-slip grooves.

[0012] The inner wall of the outer shell is provided with a locking part, which includes a first limiting groove and a second limiting groove. A limiting boss is provided between the first limiting groove and the second limiting groove. The outer wall of the pot is provided with a flange. The fixing structure is composed of the locking part and the flange.

[0013] The above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] This invention makes the microwave oven's pot body and outer shell detachable, and sets a fixing structure inside the outer shell. This allows the pot body to be fixed inside the outer shell while also allowing high-pressure air to be guided out of the pot from both sides of the fixing structure. This ensures that the pressure inside and outside the microwave oven is balanced during use, achieving safe pressure relief and improving the user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0025] See Figures 1-6 As shown, this utility model discloses a microwave cooker. Example

[0026] Please see Figures 1-2 A microwave oven includes an outer shell 1, a pot body 2, and a lid 3 that mates with the pot body 2. The lid 3 has a vent 4. The pot body 2 is made of metal, and a microwave absorbing layer 5 is fixed to the bottom surface of the pot body 2. The microwave absorbing layer 5 is covered with a base adhesive 6, which fixes the microwave absorbing layer 5 to the bottom surface of the pot body 2. A fixing structure is provided inside the outer shell 1, and the fixing structure creates a gap between the outer shell 1 and the pot body 2, fixing the pot body 2 inside the outer shell 1. During microwave heating, the high-pressure air generated by the microwave oven can be discharged through the gap between the pot body 2 and the outer shell 1 along the fixing structure.

[0027] Specifically, the fixing structure is a rib 7, which abuts against the outer surface of the pot body 2. An interference fit exists between the pot body and the rib, fixing the pot body 2 inside the outer shell 1. This prevents the pot body 2 from shaking during heating, thus preventing food from splashing out. When cleaning is needed, the pot body can also be removed from the outer shell for easy cleaning. Simultaneously, because of the rib 7 between the outer shell 1 and the pot body 2, the high-pressure air generated during microwave heating can escape along both sides of the rib 7 from the gap between the pot body 2 and the outer shell 1, achieving safe pressure relief and ensuring user safety.

[0028] In a more preferred embodiment, a silicone sealing ring is fitted onto the pot body. The silicone sealing ring and the ribs have an interference fit, which can fix the pot body inside the outer shell. The presence of the silicone sealing ring prevents the outer shell from undergoing excessive deformation when it is fitted with the pot body, effectively protecting the lifespan of the outer shell and improving the user experience.

[0029] Furthermore, for user convenience, the lid 3 is made of metal, with a handle 8 at the top and an insulating ring 9 fitted around the edge of the lid 3 to fit snugly against the pot body 2, effectively preventing sparking and better keeping the food inside the pot body 2 warm.

[0030] In a preferred embodiment, the outer shell 1 is made of an elastic material such as silicone. The distance between the rib 7 and the inner wall of the outer shell 1 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter of the pot body 2. When the pot body 2 is inserted into the outer shell 1, the rib 7 is squeezed by the pot body 2 and undergoes slight deformation, so that the rib 7 can better hold the pot body 2. When the pot body 2 is removed from the outer shell 1, the deformation of the rib 7 ends and it returns to its original shape. Example

[0031] Please refer to Figures 3-4 The inner wall of the outer shell 1 is provided with a protrusion 11, and the outer shell 1 is provided with a handle 10. A clip is provided at the handle 10. The fixing structure consists of the protrusion 11 and the clip. The clip is formed by the fitting of the outer shell piece 12 and the base piece 13. The outer shell piece 12 is fixed to the handle 10. The tail end of the base piece 13 is connected to an elastic element 14, such as a spring. When the user slides the pressing part of the base piece 13 forward, the front part of the base piece 13 pushes forward. At this time, the protrusion 11 and the base piece 13 clamp the pot body 2, fixing the pot body 2 inside the outer shell 1. When the user uses the microwave pot, the gas pressure inside the pot can be discharged through the gap between the protrusion 11 and the base piece 13 and the pot body 2, ensuring the user's safety. When cleaning is required, the user can slide the pressing part of the base piece 13 backward, causing the base piece 13 to retract backward. At this time, there is a large gap between the outer shell 1 and the pot body 2, and the user can easily remove the pot body 2 from the outer shell 1, which facilitates the cleaning of the microwave pot.

[0032] More preferably, the upper part of the outer shell 12 is trapezoidal, and the upper surface of the trapezoid is provided with anti-slip grooves, making it more convenient for the user to slide the outer shell 12. Example

[0033] Please refer to Figures 5-6 The inner wall of the outer shell 1 is provided with a locking part 15, which includes a first limiting groove 17 and a second limiting groove 18. A limiting boss 19 is provided between the first limiting groove 17 and the second limiting groove 18. The outer wall of the pot body is provided with a flange part 16. In use, the user rotates the pot body 2, causing the flange part 16 on the outer wall of the pot body 2 to enter through the first limiting groove 17 and contact the limiting boss 19. The limiting boss 19 and the flange part are in contact. The user only needs to apply a little force to cause a slight deformation of the limiting boss, and the flange part enters the second groove through the limiting boss, thereby constraining the flange part within the second groove and fixing the pot body in the outer shell. Since the groove walls of the second groove are higher than the inner wall of the outer shell, there is a large gap between the pot body 2 and the outer shell 1. Therefore, the gas generated during microwave heating can be discharged in this gap, increasing the safety of the microwave pot. When the user needs to clean the microwave oven, the pot body 2 can be rotated in the opposite direction to easily remove the pot body 2, making it convenient for the user to clean it later.

[0034] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, and these variations still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
