Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a cookware handle, specifically a foldable cookware handle, and belongs to the field of cookware technology. Background Technology
[0002] Cookware is an indispensable tool in cooking, and the pot handle, as an important component of cookware, is a part installed on the pot to facilitate the user's grip and operation of the pot. With the development of cookware manufacturing technology, the types of pot handles have also become more diverse. Pot handles can be divided into fixed handles, detachable handles, double handles, and folding handles, etc. Among them, folding handles can greatly reduce the overall size of the pot when folded and can also fix the pot lid, making them particularly suitable for kitchens with limited space or outdoor travel scenarios, making them convenient for storage and effectively utilizing space. Traditional folding handles usually use appropriate friction designed at the connection between the pivot and the handle, so that the handle can be fixed by this friction when folded or unfolded to a certain position. At the same time, the folded pot handle abuts against the pot lid to prevent the pot lid from slipping off.
[0003] However, traditional folding handles are not durable. With increased use, friction between the pivot and the handle causes the surface of the parts to wear down gradually, which changes the friction force. This may result in a decrease in friction force, leading to poorer positioning and difficulty in flexibly adjusting the angle of the pot handle during use. Therefore, their applicability needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, a foldable cookware handle includes a pot body 1, a mounting block 2 fixedly connected to the pot body 1, a pot handle 4 mounted on the mounting block 2 via a folding structure 3, the folding structure 3 including a pivot 301, the pivot 301 rotatably connected to the mounting block 2, the pot handle 4 fixedly connected to the pivot 301, a fixing block 302 fixedly connected to the end of the pivot 301, a plug rod 303 slidably connected to the fixing block 302, a plurality of insertion holes 304 arranged in a circumferential array about the axis of the pivot 301 on the mounting block 2, the plug rod 303 being inserted into the insertion holes 304, and a pot lid 5 mounted on the pot body 1.
[0023] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the cross-section of the mounting block 2 is U-shaped, and the end of the insertion rod 303 is trapezoidal. The trapezoidal end of the insertion rod 303 guides the insertion rod 303, making it easier for the insertion rod 303 to be inserted into the insertion hole 304.
[0024] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a retaining ring 305 is fixedly connected to the insertion rod 303, and a spring 306 is sleeved on the outside of the insertion rod 303. One end of the spring 306 is fixedly connected to the fixing block 302, and the other end of the spring 306 is fixedly connected to the retaining ring 305. A pull plate 307 is fixedly connected to the end of the insertion rod 303, and the pull plate 307 is perpendicular to the insertion rod 303. When it is necessary to fold and store the pot handle 4, the pull plate 307 is pulled outward. The pull plate 307 drives the insertion rod 303 to slide outward from the fixing block 302, so that the insertion rod 303 is no longer inserted into the insertion hole 304. At the same time, the insertion rod 303 drives the retaining ring 305 to retract against the spring 306. Then, the pot handle 4 is rotated towards the pot lid 5, so that the passage on the pot handle 4 is opened. Hole 7 passes through handle 6, and at the same time, the two grooves 8 on pot handle 4 engage with the edge of pot body 1. Then, release the plug rod 303. At this time, spring 306 returns to its original position and drives plug rod 303 to engage with plug hole 304, so that the rotating shaft 301 stops rotating, thereby fixing pot handle 4. Folding pot handle 4 not only reduces the space occupied by pot handle 4, but also securely fixes pot lid 5, making it easy to move pot body 1 and pot lid 5. Moreover, the cooperation between plug rod 303 and plug hole 304 can realize multi-angle rotation of pot handle 4, which can reduce wear on the connection between rotating shaft 301 and pot handle 4, and allow users to adjust the angle of pot handle 4 according to their most comfortable way, so that pot handle 4 is suitable for different grip habits and convenient for use in different scenarios.
[0025] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the cross-section of the end of the pot handle 4 is "L" shaped, and the cross-section of the pot lid 5 is "U" shaped. The pot handle 4 is provided with two grooves 8, and the edge of the pot lid 5 is engaged in the grooves 8. The pot handle 4 is provided with a through hole 7, and a handle 6 is fixedly connected to the pot lid 5. The handle 6 is engaged in the through hole 7. The grooves 8 make the edge of the pot handle 4 engage with the edge of the pot lid 5, so that the pot handle 4 presses against the pot lid 5 in the direction of the pot body 1, preventing the pot lid 5 from falling off.
[0026] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the pot body 1 is equipped with pot ears 9, and the cross-section of the pot ears 9 is U-shaped. When there is too much food or the pot body 1 is too heavy, the pot ears 9 help the pot handle 4 to lift the pot body 1, making the pot more convenient to use.
[0027] As a technical optimization of this utility model, a rubber ring 10 is installed on the pot lid 5, and the rubber ring 10 abuts against the inner wall of the pot body 1; the setting of the rubber ring 10 increases the sealing between the pot lid 5 and the pot body 1, making the cooking effect of the pot better.
[0028] In use, when the pot handle 4 needs to be folded and stored, the pull plate 307 is pulled outward. The pull plate 307 causes the insertion rod 303 to slide outward from the fixing block 302, so that the insertion rod 303 is no longer inserted into the insertion hole 304. At the same time, the insertion rod 303 causes the retaining ring 305 to retract against the spring 306. Then, the pot handle 4 is rotated towards the pot lid 5, so that the through hole 7 on the pot handle 4 passes through the handle 6. At the same time, the two grooves 8 on the pot handle 4 engage with the edge of the pot body 1. Then, the insertion rod 303 is released. At this time, the spring 306 returns to its original position and drives the insertion rod 303 to engage with the insertion hole 304, so that the rotating shaft 301 stops rotating, thereby fixing the pot handle 4. By folding the pot handle 4, not only... The design reduces the space occupied by the pot handle 4 while securely fixing the pot lid 5, facilitating the transport of the pot body 1 and the pot lid 5. Furthermore, the cooperation between the insert rod 303 and the insert hole 304 allows for multi-angle rotation of the pot handle 4, reducing wear on the connection between the rotating shaft 301 and the pot handle 4. It also allows users to adjust the angle of the pot handle 4 according to their most comfortable grip, making it suitable for different holding habits and convenient for use in various scenarios. When the pot body 1 is too full or heavy, the pot handle 9 assists in lifting the pot body 1, making the cookware more convenient to use. The rubber ring 10 increases the seal between the pot lid 5 and the pot body 1, resulting in better cooking performance.
