Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooking equipment technology, and more specifically, to a handle for a cooking device and a cooking device. Background Technology
[0002] For cooking equipment with handles, users can pick up the equipment using the handles. However, when it is necessary to store the cooking equipment, the handles located on the side of the equipment will take up a lot of space, which will cause great inconvenience to the storage of the cooking equipment. Utility Model Content
[0003] This utility model aims to solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.
[0004] In view of this, the present invention proposes a handle for a cooking device, comprising: a handle housing; a toggle member rotatably connected to the handle housing; a transmission member slidably connected to the handle housing; and a locking member rotatably connected to the handle housing. The toggle member pushes the locking member through the transmission member to move the locking member from a locked position to an unlocked position. In the locked position, the locking member is used to lock with the main body of the cooking device, and in the unlocked position, the locking member is separated from the main body.
[0005] A locking mechanism is installed on the handle housing, which can rotate relative to the handle housing, allowing it to switch between a locked and unlocked position. When the locking mechanism is in the locked position, it locks onto the main body of the cooking appliance, thus securing the handle to the main body and achieving handle installation. When the locking mechanism is in the unlocked position, it separates from the main body, allowing the handle to be detached from the main body.
[0006] The handle housing is also equipped with a toggle and a transmission component. The toggle can rotate relative to the handle housing, and the transmission component can move relative to the handle housing. The user can drive the toggle to rotate, which in turn pushes the transmission component. When the transmission component is pushed, it can rotate the locking component, thereby unlocking the handle.
[0007] The locking mechanism needs to connect to the main body, so its mounting position on the handle housing is relatively close to the main body. To facilitate user operation of the actuating mechanism, it's necessary to avoid the main body obstructing its use. Therefore, the actuating mechanism can be mounted further away from the main body. In this case, a transmission mechanism can be installed between the actuating mechanism and the locking mechanism for linkage. Through the cooperation of the actuating mechanism, transmission mechanism, and locking mechanism, the handle can be easily detached from the main body. When storing the cooking equipment or when the handle is not needed, it can be removed from the main body, improving the user's convenience in using the cooking equipment.
[0008] In some technical solutions, the actuating component optionally includes: an actuating part rotatably connected to the handle housing, the actuating part extending out of the handle housing, and an actuating gap provided between the actuating part and the handle housing; and a pushing part connected to the actuating part, the transmission component being located inside the handle housing, and the pushing part being used to push the transmission component.
[0009] The actuating part of the toggle extends out of the handle housing, allowing the user to operate the actuating part and drive the toggle to rotate. An actuating gap is formed between the actuating part and the handle housing, allowing the user's hand to reach into the actuating gap for easy operation of the actuating part.
[0010] The push part in the actuating element extends into the handle housing, thereby enabling the push part to drive the transmission element.
[0011] In one possible application, the actuating part and the pushing part are integrated into one structure.
[0012] In some technical solutions, the handle housing is optionally provided with a recess, at least a portion of the actuating part is accommodated in the recess, and an actuating gap is formed between the actuating part and the recess.
[0013] A portion of the handle housing is recessed inward, forming a concave portion on the outer surface of the handle housing. A portion of the actuating part is accommodated in the concave portion. The actuating part is flush with the position in the handle housing where the concave portion is not provided, or the actuating part protrudes slightly from the position in the handle housing where the concave portion is not provided. By providing a concave portion on the handle housing, the user's hand is less likely to interfere with the actuating part during the use of the handle. This not only facilitates the use of the handle but also prevents accidental unlocking of the handle.
[0014] In some technical solutions, optionally, a clearance slope is provided on the side of the toggle part facing the handle housing, the clearance slope extends to the side of the toggle part adjacent to the locking element, from the side of the toggle part away from the locking element to the side adjacent to the locking element, and the distance between the clearance slope and the handle housing is increased.
[0015] The actuating part is machined with a relief slope, which gradually increases the gap between the actuating part and the handle housing, thus forming a flared structure between the actuating part and the handle housing. This makes it easy for the user's hand to reach into the actuating gap, thereby facilitating the user's operation of the actuating part.
[0016] In some technical solutions, optionally, the actuating element is rotatably connected to the handle housing via a first rotating part. The actuating element includes a toggle part and a push part. The toggle part extends out of the handle housing, and the push part is used to push the transmission element. The toggle part and the push part are located on the side of the first rotating part adjacent to the locking element; and / or the locking element is rotatably connected to the handle housing via a second rotating part. A portion of the locking element for cooperating with the main body and a portion of the locking element for cooperating with the transmission element are located on both sides of the second rotating part.
[0017] In some technical solutions, optionally, a portion of the actuating element extends out of the bottom of the handle housing, the first end of the handle housing is the mounting end, the mounting end is used to connect with the main body, and the distance between the actuating element and the mounting end is greater than the distance between the locking element and the mounting end.
[0018] In some technical solutions, optionally, the toggle member has a recess on the side opposite to the locking member. When the locking member is in the locked position, a part of the handle housing is located in the recess, and the recess can rotate relative to the handle housing.
[0019] In some technical solutions, the transmission component optionally includes: a first transmission part and a second transmission part, the first transmission part being connected to the second transmission part, the actuating component being used to push the first transmission part, and the second transmission part being used to push the locking component.
[0020] Due to the limited installation space inside the handle housing caused by its shape, the shape of the transmission component needs to be improved. In this design, the thickness of the first transmission part is greater than that of the second transmission part. The first transmission part is used in conjunction with the actuating component, and the second transmission part is used in conjunction with the locking component.
[0021] In some technical solutions, optionally, a portion of the first transmission part is disposed on top of the second transmission part, and / or the thickness of the first transmission part is greater than the thickness of the second transmission part.
[0022] In some technical solutions, the handle may optionally include a guide portion disposed on the handle housing, the guide portion being used to guide the movement of the transmission component.
[0023] The guide section can guide the movement of the transmission component, ensuring that the transmission component can only reciprocate in a fixed direction, thereby ensuring that the transmission component can stably push the locking component.
[0024] For example, the guide is a screw, and a groove is provided on the transmission component. The screw passes through the groove, and guides the transmission component when it moves. Alternatively, a protruding structure is provided on the transmission component, and a groove is provided on the handle housing. The protruding structure is inserted into the groove and can slide within the groove.
[0025] In some technical solutions, the transmission component is optionally provided with a groove, and the guide portion passes through the groove.
[0026] In some technical solutions, optionally, a clearance part is provided at one end of the transmission component adjacent to the locking component. The clearance part is a clearance step or a clearance slope. During the rotation of the locking component from the locked position to the unlocked position, the clearance part avoids the locking component.
[0027] In some technical solutions, the locking element optionally includes: a first mating part and a second mating part, the first mating part and the second mating part are connected, and there is an included angle between the first mating part and the second mating part. In the locked position, one end of the transmission element abuts against the first mating part and / or the second mating part.
[0028] The first mating part and the second mating part are connected, and an angle is formed between them. When the transmission member pushes the locking member, the transmission member simultaneously abuts against the first and second mating parts, thus the transmission member is located at the angle between the first and second mating parts. Because there is an angle between the first and second mating parts, they extend in different directions. When the transmission member pushes the locking member, the end of the transmission member is stably located at the angle between the first and second mating parts, thereby preventing the transmission member from separating from the locking member and ensuring that the transmission member can stably push the locking member.
[0029] In some technical solutions, the locking component may optionally include a locking part, a first part of which is used to lock with the main body, a second part of which is connected to the first mating part, and there is an angle between the second part and the first mating part. In the locked position, the second part is in contact with the handle housing, and in the unlocked position, the second part is separated from the handle housing. A guide slope is formed between the first part and the second part. During the rotation of the locking component, the guide slope avoids the handle housing.
[0030] In some technical solutions, the handle may optionally include: a first limiting part connected to the handle housing, the first limiting part being used to limit the maximum rotation angle of the actuating member; and / or a second limiting part connected to the handle housing, the second limiting part being used to limit the maximum rotation angle of the locking member.
[0031] After the actuating component rotates to a certain angle, it abuts against the first limiting part, which limits the actuating component to prevent it from rotating excessively and thus reduces the damage rate of the actuating component.
[0032] A second limiting part can also be set to limit the locking component. After the actuating component rotates to a certain angle, the actuating component abuts against the second limiting part to prevent the locking component from rotating excessively, which helps to reduce the damage rate of the locking component.
[0033] In some technical solutions, optionally, a first limiting space is formed between the first limiting part and the handle housing, and a part of the actuating member rotates within the first limiting space; and / or a second limiting space is formed between the second limiting part and the transmission member, and a part of the locking member rotates within the second limiting space, with the second limiting part located above the locking member.
[0034] In some technical solutions, optionally, a portion of the first limiting portion is bent downward relative to the other portion, and / or a portion of the second limiting portion is bent downward relative to the other portion.
[0035] In some technical solutions, the handle may optionally include: a first elastic element connected between the actuating element and the handle housing, the first elastic element being used to drive the actuating element to rotate and reset; and / or a second elastic element connected between the locking element and the handle housing, the second elastic element being used to drive the locking element to rotate and reset.
[0036] A first elastic element is installed between the toggle and the handle housing. When the toggle is pushed by the user, the first elastic element deforms. When the user stops pushing the toggle, the first elastic element can drive the toggle to automatically reset, eliminating the need for the user to manually push the toggle to reset, which improves the user's convenience in using the toggle.
[0037] Similarly, a second elastic element is installed between the locking element and the handle housing. When the locking element is pushed by the transmission element, the second elastic element deforms. When the user stops pushing the toggle element, the second elastic element can automatically reset the locking element, which improves the user's ease of use of the locking element. Moreover, the second elastic element provides elastic force to the locking element, so that the locking element can be stably fastened to the main body.
[0038] In some technical solutions, the handle may optionally include a plug-in portion connected to the handle housing, the plug-in portion being used for interlocking with the main body.
[0039] A connector is provided on the side of the handle housing facing the main body. When installing the handle, the connector is inserted into the main body. The connector and the main body cooperate with each other, making the handle less likely to wobble. This ensures that the locking mechanism can be stably fastened to the main body, which helps to improve the installation stability of the handle.
[0040] Secondly, this utility model proposes a cooking device, comprising: a main body, on which a buckle portion is provided; a handle as described in the first aspect, and a locking element detachably connected to the buckle portion.
[0041] The handle can be easily detached from the buckle. When storing the cooking equipment or when the handle is not needed, it can be removed from the main body, which improves the user's convenience in using the cooking equipment.
[0042] In some technical solutions, optionally, the main body is provided with a guide slope, and the locking element can slide along the guide slope to the latching part.
[0043] A guide ramp is provided on the main body. When installing the handle, move the handle toward the main body, and the locking part on the handle can slide along the guide ramp, so that the locking part can move to the position of the latching part.
[0044] By setting guide ramps on the main body, the user does not need to drive the locking mechanism to rotate during the handle installation process, which improves the ease of handle installation.
[0045] In some technical solutions, optionally, a handle is provided on the main body, and a buckle is provided on the handle.
[0046] The main body is equipped with a handle, which can be detached from the handle. With the handle removed, users can lift and lower the cooking device using the handle. Whether the handle is installed or removed, the cooking device can be used in different scenarios.

Detailed Implementation
[0056] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0057] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0058] The following reference Figures 1 to 5 This invention describes a handle for a cooking apparatus and a cooking apparatus according to some embodiments of the present invention.
[0059] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments of this utility model, a handle 100 for a cooking appliance is provided. The handle 100 includes: a handle housing 110, a toggle member 120, a transmission member 130, and a locking member 140. Both the toggle member 120 and the locking member 140 are rotatably connected to the handle housing 110, and the transmission member 130 is slidably connected to the handle housing 110. The toggle member 120 pushes the locking member 140 through the transmission member 130, causing the locking member 140 to move from a locked position to an unlocked position. In the locked position, the locking member 140 is locked to the main body 210 of the cooking appliance; in the unlocked position, the locking member 140 is separated from the main body 210.
[0060] A locking element 140 is installed on the handle housing 110. The locking element 140 can rotate relative to the handle housing 110, allowing it to switch between a locked position and an unlocked position. When the locking element 140 is in the locked position, it locks onto the main body 210 of the cooking appliance, thereby fixing the handle 100 to the main body 210 and achieving the installation of the handle 100. When the locking element 140 is in the unlocked position, it separates from the main body 210, allowing the handle 100 to be detached from the main body 210.
[0061] The handle housing 110 is also equipped with a toggle 120 and a transmission component 130. The toggle 120 can rotate relative to the handle housing 110, and the transmission component 130 can move relative to the handle housing 110. The user can drive the toggle 120 to rotate, thereby causing the toggle 120 to push the transmission component 130. When the transmission component 130 is pushed, the transmission component 130 can rotate the locking component 140, thereby unlocking the handle 100.
[0062] The locking element 140 needs to be connected to the main body 210. Therefore, the mounting position of the locking element 140 on the handle housing 110 is relatively close to the main body 210. In order to facilitate the user's operation of the actuating element 120, it is necessary to avoid the main body 210 from obstructing the use of the actuating element 120. Therefore, the mounting position of the actuating element 120 on the handle housing 110 can be moved away from the main body 210. In this case, a transmission element 130 can be set between the actuating element 120 and the locking element 140 for linkage. Through the cooperation of the actuating element 120, the transmission element 130 and the locking element 140, the handle 100 can be easily detached from the main body 210. When storing the cooking equipment or when the handle 100 is not needed, it can be detached from the main body 210, which helps to improve the user's convenience in using the cooking equipment.
[0063] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the actuating member 120 includes a toggle part 121 and a pushing part 122. The toggle part 121 is rotatably connected to the handle housing 110, extends out of the handle housing 110, and has a toggle gap 190 between it and the handle housing 110. The pushing part 122 is connected to the toggle part 121, and the transmission member 130 is located inside the handle housing 110. The pushing part 122 is used to push the transmission member 130.
[0064] The actuating part 121 of the actuating member 120 extends out of the handle housing 110. The user can operate the actuating part 121 to drive the actuating member 120 to rotate. An actuating gap 190 is formed between the actuating part 121 and the handle housing 110. The user's hand can be inserted into the actuating gap 190 to facilitate the user's operation of the actuating part 121.
[0065] The push part 122 in the toggle member 120 extends into the handle housing 110, thereby enabling the push part 122 to push the transmission member 130.
[0066] In one possible application, the actuating part 121 and the pushing part 122 are integrated into one unit.
[0067] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the handle housing 110 is provided with a recess 111, at least a portion of the actuating portion 121 is accommodated in the recess 111, and an actuating gap 190 is formed between the actuating portion 121 and the recess 111.
[0068] A portion of the handle housing 110 is recessed inward, thereby forming a recess 111 on the outer surface of the handle housing 110. A portion of the actuating part 121 is accommodated in the recess 111. The actuating part 121 is flush with the position in the handle housing 110 where the recess 111 is not provided, or the actuating part 121 protrudes slightly from the position in the handle housing 110 where the recess 111 is not provided. By providing a recess 111 on the handle housing 110, the user's hand is less likely to interfere with the actuating part 121 during the use of the handle 100. This not only facilitates the use of the handle 100 but also prevents accidental unlocking of the handle 100.
[0069] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the toggle portion 121 is provided with a clearance slope 123 on the side facing the handle housing 110. The clearance slope 123 extends to the side of the toggle portion 121 adjacent to the locking member 140, and the distance between the clearance slope 123 and the handle housing 110 increases from the side of the toggle portion 121 away from the locking member 140 to the side adjacent to the locking member 140.
[0070] The actuating part 121 is machined with a relief slope 123. The relief slope 123 makes the gap between the actuating part 121 and the handle housing 110 gradually increase, thereby forming a flared structure between the actuating part 121 and the handle housing 110. This makes it easy for the user's hand to reach into the actuating gap 190, thus facilitating the user's operation of the actuating part 121.
[0071] In some technical solutions, optionally, the actuating member 120 is rotatably connected to the handle housing 110 via the first rotating part 240. The actuating member 120 includes a toggle part 121 and a push part 122. The toggle part 121 extends out of the handle housing 110, and the push part 122 is used to push the transmission member 130. The toggle part 121 and the push part 122 are located on the side of the first rotating part 240 adjacent to the locking member 140; and / or the locking member 140 is rotatably connected to the handle housing 110 via the second rotating part 250. A portion of the locking member 140 for cooperating with the main body 210 and a portion of the locking member 140 for cooperating with the transmission member 130 are located on both sides of the second rotating part 250.
[0072] When the actuating member 120 pushes the transmission member 130, in order to facilitate user operation, the actuating part 121 needs to be rotated away from the handle housing 110. Therefore, the actuating part 121 and the pushing part 122 need to be located on the same side of the first rotating part 240.
[0073] When the locking member 140 is pushed, the pushed position tilts upward, and the locking position on the locking member 140 needs to be rotated downward to separate from the main body 210. Therefore, it is necessary to set the two parts of the locking member 140 on both sides of the second rotating part 250.
[0074] In some embodiments, optionally, a portion of the toggle member 120 extends out of the bottom of the handle housing 110, the first end of the handle housing 110 is the mounting end 112, the mounting end 112 is used to connect with the body 210, and the distance between the toggle member 120 and the mounting end 112 is greater than the distance between the locking member 140 and the mounting end 112.
[0075] The actuating element 120 is located at the bottom of the handle housing 110. When the handle 100 is installed on the main body 210 of the cooking device, the actuating element 120 is located further away from the main body 210 than the locking element 140. That is, the actuating element 120 is located at both the bottom and rear of the handle housing 110. In this case, the actuating element 120 is less likely to be accidentally touched, reducing misoperation. Moreover, the position of the actuating element 120 also makes it easier for the user to hold the handle 100, improving the user's ease of use of the handle 100.
[0076] In some embodiments, the toggle member 120 may have a recess 124 on the side opposite to the latch member 140. When the latch member 140 is in the locked position, a portion of the handle housing 110 is located in the recess 124, and the recess 124 is rotatable relative to the handle housing 110.
[0077] A portion of the actuating element 120 is located inside the handle housing 110, and the other portion of the actuating element 120 extends out of the handle housing 110. During the rotation of the actuating element 120, in order to avoid interference between the actuating element 120 and the handle housing 110, a recess 124 is machined on the actuating element 120 in this embodiment. The recess 124 can avoid the handle housing 110, thereby ensuring that the actuating element 120 can rotate stably relative to the handle housing 110.
[0078] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the transmission member 130 includes: a first transmission part 131 and a second transmission part 132, the first transmission part 131 is connected to the second transmission part 132, the actuating member 120 is used to push the first transmission part 131, and the second transmission part 132 is used to push the locking member 140.
[0079] Due to the limited shape of the handle housing 110, the installation space inside the handle housing 110 is limited, so the shape of the transmission component 130 needs to be improved.
[0080] For example, the thickness of the handle housing 110 decreases from the side away from the main body 210 to the side adjacent to the main body 210, or the handle housing 110 has a certain curvature from the side away from the main body 210 to the side adjacent to the main body 210. In the above cases, it is necessary to provide two transmission parts with different thicknesses.
[0081] In some embodiments, optionally, a portion of the first transmission portion 131 is disposed on top of the second transmission portion 132; and / or the thickness of the first transmission portion 131 is greater than the thickness of the second transmission portion 132.
[0082] A portion of the first transmission part 131 is disposed on top of the second transmission part 132. Therefore, the first transmission part 131 is higher than the second transmission part 132, and the handle 100 can be configured as a structure with a low front end and a high rear end, which is beneficial to improving the user's comfort in holding the handle 100.
[0083] Furthermore, a portion of the first transmission part 131 is attached to the top of the second transmission part 132, resulting in a larger contact area between the first transmission part 131 and the second transmission part 132, thereby improving the connection stability of the first transmission part 131 and the second transmission part 132.
[0084] In this design, the thickness of the first transmission part 131 is greater than the thickness of the second transmission part 132. The first transmission part 131 is used in conjunction with the actuating member 120, and the second transmission part 132 is used in conjunction with the locking member 140.
[0085] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the handle 100 may optionally include a guide portion 150 disposed on the handle housing 110, the guide portion 150 being used to guide the movement of the transmission member 130.
[0086] The guide portion 150 can guide the movement of the transmission member 130, so that the transmission member 130 can only move back and forth in a fixed direction, thereby ensuring that the transmission member 130 can stably push the locking member 140.
[0087] The transmission component 130 is provided with a slide groove 133, and the guide part 150 passes through the slide groove 133.
[0088] For example, the guide portion 150 is a screw, and a groove 133 is provided on the transmission member 130. The screw passes through the groove 133, and the screw guides the transmission member 130 when it moves. Alternatively, a protruding structure is provided on the transmission member 130, and a groove is provided on the handle housing 110. The protruding structure is inserted into the groove and can slide within the groove.
[0089] In some embodiments, optionally, the transmission member 130 is provided with a clearance portion 134 at one end adjacent to the locking member 140. The clearance portion 134 is a clearance step or a clearance slope. During the rotation of the locking member 140 from the locked position to the unlocked position, the clearance portion 134 avoids the locking member 140.
[0090] When the transmission member 130 pushes the locking member 140, the locking member 140 rotates relative to the transmission member 130. In order to avoid interference between the locking member 140 and the transmission member 130, in this embodiment, a relief portion 134 is formed at one end of the transmission member 130 adjacent to the locking member 140. The relief portion 134 can avoid the locking member 140, thereby ensuring that the locking member 140 can rotate stably relative to the transmission member 130.
[0091] The avoidance part 134 can be stepped or inclined. The structure of the avoidance part 134 is equivalent to removing a part of the structure of the transmission member 130, thereby realizing the avoidance function of the locking member 140.
[0092] In some embodiments, the locking member 140 may optionally include a first mating part 141 and a second mating part 142, the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142 being connected, and an included angle being provided between the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142, and in the locked position, one end of the transmission member 130 abuts against the first mating part 141 and / or the second mating part 142.
[0093] The first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142 are connected, and an angle is formed between the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142. When the transmission member 130 pushes the locking member 140, the transmission member 130 simultaneously abuts against the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142. Therefore, the transmission member 130 is located at the angle between the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142. Since there is an angle between the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142, the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142 extend in different directions. When the transmission member 130 pushes the locking member 140, the end of the transmission member 130 is stably located at the angle between the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142, thereby preventing the transmission member 130 from separating from the locking member 140 and ensuring that the transmission member 130 can stably push the locking member 140.
[0094] In this embodiment, the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142 are integral structures, and the included angle between the first mating part 141 and the second mating part 142 is 90° or close to 90°.
[0095] Of course, in other embodiments, the transmission member 130 may also abut against only the first mating part 141 or the second mating part 142.
[0096] In some embodiments, the locking member 140 may optionally include a locking portion 143, wherein a first portion 145 of the locking portion 143 is used to lock with the body 210, a second portion 146 of the locking portion 143 is connected to a first mating portion 141, and there is an included angle between the second portion 146 and the first mating portion 141. In the locked position, the second portion 146 is in contact with the handle housing 110, and in the unlocked position, the second portion 146 is separated from the handle housing 110. A guide slope 144 is formed between the first portion 145 and the second portion 146. During the rotation of the locking member 140, the guide slope 144 avoids the handle housing 110.
[0097] There is an angle between the locking part 143 and the first mating part 141, so the first mating part 141 can extend into the handle housing 110 relative to the locking part 143, which makes it easier for the transmission member 130 to push the locking member 140.
[0098] There is a guide slope 144 between the two parts of the locking part 143. When the locking member 140 rotates relative to the handle housing 110, the guide slope 144 and the handle housing 110 rotate relative to each other, so that the locking member 140 and the handle housing 110 are less likely to interfere with each other.
[0099] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the handle 100 may optionally include: a first limiting portion 161 and / or a second limiting portion 162, the first limiting portion 161 being connected to the handle housing 110 and used to limit the maximum rotation angle of the toggle member 120, and the second limiting portion 162 being connected to the handle housing 110 and used to limit the maximum rotation angle of the locking member 140.
[0100] After the actuating member 120 rotates to a certain angle, the actuating member 120 abuts against the first limiting part 161. The first limiting part 161 limits the actuating member 120 to prevent it from rotating excessively, which helps to reduce the damage rate of the actuating member 120.
[0101] A second limiting part 162 can also be set to limit the locking member 140. After the actuating member 120 rotates at a certain angle, the actuating member 120 abuts against the second limiting part 162 to prevent the locking member 140 from rotating excessively, which helps to reduce the damage rate of the locking member 140.
[0102] In some embodiments, optionally, a first limiting space 261 is formed between the first limiting portion 161 and the handle housing 110, and a portion of the actuating member 120 rotates within the first limiting space 261; and / or a second limiting space 262 is formed between the second limiting portion 162 and the transmission member 130, and a portion of the locking member 140 rotates within the second limiting space 262, with the second limiting portion 162 located above the locking member 140.
[0103] A portion of the toggle member 120 rotates within the first limiting space 261, thereby enabling the first limiting portion 161 and the handle housing 110 to limit the toggle member 120 at two extreme positions.
[0104] Similarly, a portion of the locking member 140 rotates within the second limiting space 262, thereby enabling the second limiting part 162 and the handle housing 110 to limit the locking member 140 at two extreme positions.
[0105] In some embodiments, optionally, a portion of the first limiting portion 161 is bent downward relative to another portion, and / or a portion of the second limiting portion 162 is bent downward relative to another portion.
[0106] A portion of the first limiting part 161 is bent, making the first limiting part 161 less prone to deformation, thereby ensuring that the first limiting part 161 can stably limit the toggle member 120.
[0107] Similarly, the bending of a portion of the second limiting part 162 makes the first limiting part 161 less prone to deformation, thereby ensuring that the first limiting part 161 can stably limit the toggle member 120.
[0108] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the handle 100 may optionally include: a first elastic member 171 and / or a second elastic member 172, wherein the first elastic member 171 is connected between the actuating member 120 and the handle housing 110, and the first elastic member 171 is used to drive the actuating member 120 to rotate and reset, and the second elastic member 172 is connected between the locking member 140 and the handle housing 110, and the second elastic member 172 is used to drive the locking member 140 to rotate and reset.
[0109] A first elastic element 171 is installed between the toggle element 120 and the handle housing 110. When the toggle element 120 is pushed by the user, the first elastic element 171 deforms. When the user stops pushing the toggle element 120, the first elastic element 171 can drive the toggle element 120 to automatically reset, without the user having to manually push the toggle element 120 to reset, which helps to improve the user's convenience in using the toggle element 120.
[0110] Similarly, a second elastic element 172 is installed between the locking element 140 and the handle housing 110. When the locking element 140 is pushed by the transmission element 130, the second elastic element 172 deforms. When the user stops pushing the actuating element 120, the second elastic element 172 can drive the locking element 140 to automatically reset, which helps to improve the user's ease of use of the locking element 140. Moreover, the second elastic element 172 provides elastic force to the locking element 140, so that the locking element 140 can be stably fastened to the main body 210.
[0111] For example, both the first elastic element 171 and the second elastic element 172 are torsion springs.
[0112] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the handle 100 may optionally include a plug portion 180, which is connected to the handle housing 110 and is used to plug into the body 210.
[0113] A plug-in portion 180 is provided on the side of the handle housing 110 facing the main body 210. When installing the handle 100, the plug-in portion 180 is plugged into the main body 210. The plug-in portion 180 and the main body 210 cooperate with each other, so that the handle 100 is not easy to shake, thereby ensuring that the locking member 140 can be stably fastened to the main body 210, which helps to improve the installation stability of the handle 100.
[0114] In some embodiments of this utility model, a cooking device is proposed, including: a main body 210 and a handle 100 as described in any of the above embodiments. The main body 210 is provided with a buckle portion 211, and a locking member 140 is detachably connected to the buckle portion 211.
[0115] The handle 100 can be easily detached from the buckle 211. When storing the cooking equipment or when the handle 100 is not needed, it can be detached from the main body 210, which helps to improve the user's convenience in using the cooking equipment.
[0116] When the user moves the toggle 120 downwards, it pushes the transmission 130 forward. The transmission 130 then pushes the locking element 140 downwards, causing the locking element 140 to rotate downwards, thus disassembling the handle 100. The handle 100 is connected to the main body 210 via two metal posts (plug-in parts 180) inserted into the pot handle 100 connection structure. The locking structure prevents the handle 100 from being pulled out. During disassembly, the toggle 120 is moved, and the transmission 130 pushes the locking element 140 forward to unlock it. Both the locking element 140 and the toggle 120 are equipped with springs. When the toggle 120 is released, the spring force will cause the toggle 120 and the locking element 140 to return to their original state.
[0117] The handle housing 110 is equipped with a toggle member 120, a transmission member 130, and a locking member 140. The locking member 140 is rotatable relative to the handle housing 110, allowing it to switch between a locked position and an unlocked position. When the locking member 140 is in the locked position, it locks onto the main body 210 of the cooking appliance, thus fixing the handle 100 to the main body 210 and achieving the installation of the handle 100. When the locking member 140 is in the unlocked position, it separates from the main body 210, allowing the handle 100 to be detached from the main body 210. The actuating element 120 can rotate relative to the handle housing 110, and the transmission element 130 can move relative to the handle housing 110. The user can drive the actuating element 120 to rotate, thereby causing the actuating element 120 to push the transmission element 130. When the transmission element 130 is pushed, the transmission element 130 can rotate the locking element 140, thereby unlocking the handle 100.
[0118] The locking element 140 needs to be connected to the main body 210. Therefore, the mounting position of the locking element 140 on the handle housing 110 is relatively close to the main body 210. In order to facilitate the user's operation of the actuating element 120, it is necessary to avoid the main body 210 from obstructing the use of the actuating element 120. Therefore, the mounting position of the actuating element 120 on the handle housing 110 can be moved away from the main body 210. In this case, a transmission element 130 can be set between the actuating element 120 and the locking element 140 for linkage. Through the cooperation of the actuating element 120, the transmission element 130 and the locking element 140, the handle 100 can be easily detached from the main body 210. When storing the cooking equipment or when the handle 100 is not needed, it can be detached from the main body 210, which helps to improve the user's convenience in using the cooking equipment.
[0119] For example, the cooking equipment can be a saucepan, steamer, wok, etc., and the main body 210 can be a pot.
[0120] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the main body 210 is provided with a slope 212, and the locking member 140 can slide along the slope 212 toward the latching part 211.
[0121] An inclined surface 212 is provided on the main body 210. When the handle 100 is installed, the handle 100 is moved toward the main body 210, and the locking member 140 on the handle 100 can slide along the inclined surface 212, so that the locking member 140 can move to the position of the latching part 211.
[0122] By setting an inclined surface 212 on the main body 210, the user does not need to drive the locking fastener 140 to rotate during the installation of the handle 100, which helps to improve the ease of installation of the handle 100.
[0123] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, a handle 230 is provided on the main body 210, and a buckle 211 is provided on the handle 230.
[0124] A handle 230 is provided on the main body 210, and the handle 100 can be detached from the handle 230. When the handle 100 is removed, the user can lift and place the cooking device using the handle 230. With the handle 100 installed and the handle 100 removed, the cooking device can be used in different usage scenarios.
[0125] The number of handles 230 can be at least two.
