Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen cooking utensils technology, specifically to a stew pot with a lid lock. Background Technology
[0002] Pots are now an indispensable household item, with different pots serving different functions, such as steaming, frying, and stir-frying, to meet diverse taste preferences. As people's living standards continue to improve, their demands for stew pots are also increasing.
[0003] Existing stew pots consist of a pot body and a lid, with an opening at the top of the pot body and the lid positioned over the opening. However, during actual stewing, the lid may bounce and make a sound due to the steam, and the broth may leak out from the gap between the lid and the pot body, causing inconvenience in use. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a stew pot with a lid lock, which aims to control the opening and closing of the lid by rotating the locking plate, thereby improving the convenience of use.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] In a first aspect, this utility model provides a stew pot with a lid lock, including a pot body and a lid. A snap-fit groove is provided circumferentially at the opening of the pot body, and the edge of the lid snaps into the snap-fit groove. Pot ears are installed on both sides of the pot body near the opening, and a locking disc is rotatably mounted on each of the two pot ears. The radius of the locking disc is greater than the distance between the pivot of the locking disc and the opening, and a notch is provided on the edge of the locking disc. When the locking disc rotates to the point where the notch is misaligned with the lid, the locking disc abuts against the side of the lid away from the snap-fit groove, and is in a locked state. When the locking disc rotates to the point where the notch corresponds to the lid, the notch allows the lid to pass through, and is in an unlocked state.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when using the stew pot, after placing the lid on the pot body, rotating the two locking discs will cause the locking discs to abut against the lid, thus locking the lid. This prevents the lid from jumping and making noise due to steam, and also reduces the leakage of soup from the gap between the lid and the pot body, improving ease of use. Alternatively, directly rotating the two locking discs will cause the notch to be on one side of the lid, thus unlocking the lid, making operation convenient.
[0008] Optionally, the pot ear includes an ear body integrally formed on the pot body and a mounting shell sleeved on the ear body. A rotating groove is provided on the upward-facing side of the mounting shell, and the locking disc is rotatably installed in the rotating groove.
[0009] Optionally, the sidewall of the rotating groove is provided with a limiting groove in the circumferential direction, and the locking disc is provided with a limiting strip extending in the circumferential direction, the limiting strip being slidably installed in the limiting groove.
[0010] Optionally, a stop block is fixedly installed in the limiting groove, and a stop groove is opened on the side wall of the limiting strip. The stop block is slidably installed in the stop groove. When the stop block slides to abut against both ends of the stop groove, the locking disc is in the locked state and the unlocked state respectively.
[0011] Optionally, a limiting outer ring and a limiting inner ring are fixedly installed on the ear body. The limiting inner ring is located inside the limiting outer ring. A limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the locking disc, and the limiting outer ring is engaged in the limiting groove. A locking groove is provided circumferentially at the bottom of the inner ring of the limiting inner ring. An elastic buckle is provided at the bottom of the locking disc, and the elastic buckle is engaged in the locking groove.
[0012] Optionally, the mounting shell includes an upper shell and a lower shell, which are detachably connected. The rotating groove is formed in the upper shell, the upper shell covers the top of the ear body, and the lower shell covers the bottom of the ear body.
[0013] Optionally, the notch is arc-shaped, and the shape of the notch matches the edge shape of the pot lid.
[0014] Optionally, the locking disc is provided with a pointer, and the top of the mounting housing is provided with an unlock mark and a lock mark along the circumference; when the locking disc is in the unlocked state, the pointer points to the unlock mark; when the locking disc is in the locked state, the pointer points to the lock mark.
[0015] Optionally, a rotating block is provided on the top of the locking disc.
[0016] Optionally, the lid is a transparent glass lid.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] This invention allows the locking disc to be rotated by twisting the block. When the stop block abuts against one end of the stop groove, the pointer points to the unlock mark, indicating that the notch is in the position corresponding to the pot lid, thus unlocking the pot lid. When the stop block abuts against the other end of the stop groove, the pointer points to the lock mark, indicating that the notch is away from the position of the pot lid, causing the locking disc to abut against the pot lid, thus locking the pot lid. This not only makes opening and closing the lid convenient but also reduces the leakage of soup from the gap between the pot lid and the pot body. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of this utility model in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, solution, and effects of this utility model. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.
[0028] This application discloses a stew pot with a lid lock. (See also...) Figure 1The stew pot includes a pot body 1 and a lid 2. The lid 2 is a transparent glass lid. A locking groove 11 extends circumferentially from the opening of the pot body 1, and the edge of the lid 2 is locked into the locking groove 11. Pot ears 3 are installed on both sides of the pot body 1 near the opening. A locking disc 4 is rotatably installed on each of the two pot ears 3. The radius of the locking disc 4 is larger than the distance between the pivot of the locking disc 4 and the opening. The edge of the locking disc 4 is provided with a notch 41. The notch 41 is arc-shaped and its shape is consistent with the edge shape of the lid 2. When the locking disc 4 rotates to the point where the notch 41 is offset from the lid 2, the locking disc 4 abuts against the side of the lid 2 away from the locking groove 11, and is in a locked state. When the locking disc 4 rotates to the point where the notch 41 corresponds to the lid 2, the notch 41 allows the lid 2 to pass through, and is in an unlocked state.
[0029] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The pot handle 3 includes a handle body 31 and a mounting shell 32. The handle body 31 is integrally formed with the pot body 1. The mounting shell 32 includes an upper shell 321 and a lower shell 322. The upper shell 321 and the lower shell 322 are fixedly connected by bolts. The upper shell 321 covers the top of the handle body 31, and the lower shell 322 covers the bottom of the handle body 31, so that the mounting shell 32 is fitted onto the handle body 31. The upper shell 321 has a rotating groove 33, and the locking disc 4 is rotatably installed in the rotating groove 33. The side wall of the rotating groove 33 has a limit groove 34 along the circumferential direction for locking. A limiting strip 42 extends circumferentially from the disc 4. The limiting strip 42 is slidably installed in the limiting groove 34, thereby limiting the rotation of the locking disc 4. A stop block 35 is fixedly installed in the limiting groove 34. A stop groove 43 is opened on the side wall of the limiting strip 42. The stop groove 43 is opened along the extension direction of the limiting strip 42. The stop block 35 is slidably installed in the stop groove 43. When the stop block 35 slides to abut against both ends of the stop groove 43, the locking disc 4 is in the locked state and the unlocked state respectively, thereby improving the accuracy of rotation to the unlocked and locked positions.
[0030] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 A limiting outer ring 36 and a limiting inner ring 37 are fixedly installed on the ear body 31. The limiting outer ring 36 and the limiting inner ring 37 are concentrically arranged, and the limiting inner ring 37 is located inside the limiting outer ring 36. A limiting groove 44 is opened at the bottom of the locking disc 4, and the limiting outer ring 36 is engaged in the limiting groove 44. A locking groove 38 is opened circumferentially at the bottom of the inner ring of the limiting inner ring 37. An elastic buckle 45 is provided at the bottom of the locking disc 4, and the elastic buckle 45 is fastened in the locking groove 38. Thus, during installation, the limiting outer ring 36 and the limiting inner ring 37 can be fixedly installed on the ear body 31 first, and then the locking disc 4 can be installed at the limiting outer ring 36 and the limiting inner ring 37. Next, the upper shell 321 and the lower shell 322 are placed on the top and bottom of the ear body 31 in sequence, and finally the installation of the pot ear 3 is completed by fixing it with bolts.
[0031] Reference Figure 3 The locking disc 4 is equipped with a pointer 46, and the top of the mounting housing 32 is provided with an unlock mark 39 and a lock mark 30 along the circumference. When the locking disc 4 is in the unlocked state, the pointer 46 points to the unlock mark 39; when the locking disc 4 is in the locked state, the pointer 46 points to the lock mark 30. This allows the user to intuitively observe whether it is in the unlocked or locked state. The top of the locking disc 4 is integrally formed with a rotating block 47, which facilitates the rotation of the locking disc 4.
[0032] The implementation principle of a stew pot with a lid lock according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: When using the stew pot, after placing the lid 2 on the pot body 1, rotate the two locking discs 4 so that the pointer 46 points to the lock mark 30, and let the locking discs 4 abut against the lid 2 to lock the lid 2; after stewing is completed, rotate the two locking discs 4 so that the pointer 46 points to the unlock mark 39, and let the notch 41 correspond to the lid 2 to unlock the lid 2.
