Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen utensils technology, and in particular to a pot lid and a pot. Background Technology

[0002] Pot lids are a common kitchen utensil in our daily lives. In current technology, pot lids are generally only used to cover the pot body to prevent high-temperature steam from escaping, and cannot perform other functions.

[0003] The newer pot lids in the existing technology have an anti-overflow function, but they cannot adapt to more usage scenarios, making the pot lids not very versatile. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application provides a pot lid and a pot that can adapt to more usage scenarios, thus making the pot lid more versatile.

[0005] One embodiment of this application provides a pot lid, which includes a lid body and a mating part.

[0006] The fitting component includes a body portion and a connecting portion. The body portion includes a bottom wall and a folding portion. Along the radial direction of the lid, the folding portion connects the bottom wall and the connecting portion. The connecting portion can be detachably connected to the lid body. There is an accommodating space between the fitting component and the lid body. The folding portion is deformable to move the bottom wall along the height direction of the lid.

[0007] In this solution, on the one hand, the connecting part and the lid are detachably connected, and users can install or remove the mating parts through simple operation, which is convenient for cleaning and solves the problem of traditional anti-overflow lids being difficult to clean. While achieving the physical anti-overflow function, users can easily disassemble and clean it.

[0008] On the other hand, the folding part of the mating component can deform to move the bottom wall along the height direction of the lid, thereby allowing the accommodating space between the mating component and the lid to be adjusted along the height direction of the lid. The mating component can be in a folded state or an unfolded state, meaning it can be folded according to different pot volumes to adjust the volume of food being cooked in the pot. The lid of this embodiment is a lid with freely adjustable accommodating space, making it highly adaptable and able to adapt to more usage scenarios according to user needs, thus improving the user experience.

[0009] In addition, the versatility of the fittings can further enhance the versatility of the pot lid's functions in the embodiments of this application.

[0010] Optionally, the folded portion includes at least two opposing bent segments, and the included angle between adjacent bent segments can vary so that the folded portion can elastically deform.

[0011] In this solution, the angle between adjacent bending segments is changed to make the folded part elastically deform along the height direction of the lid, so that the bending segments are folded or unfolded in sequence, thereby realizing the rapid switching of the mating parts between the folded and unfolded states.

[0012] Optionally, the bending segment includes at least a first bending segment and a second bending segment, the first bending segment is connected to the connecting portion, the first bending segment extends along the height direction of the pot lid, and the second bending segment has an included angle with the first bending segment.

[0013] The first bending section connects to the connecting part and extends downward along the height direction of the lid. The extension of the first bending section along the height direction of the lid ensures that the elastic deformation of the folded part will not affect the connecting part. That is, the movement of the body part along the height direction of the lid will not affect the connection between the connecting part and the lid in the radial direction of the lid, so that the mating part can be stably connected to the lid, improving the connection reliability between the mating part and the lid.

[0014] Optionally, the outer periphery of the lid has a flange extending downward along the height direction of the lid, the flange covering at least a portion of the connecting portion, and the flange pressing against the connecting portion.

[0015] In this design, the flange covers at least a portion of the connecting part and presses it firmly against the connecting part, resulting in a high connection strength between the mating part and the lid. This prevents the mating part from easily detaching during use of the cookware, improving the reliability of the connection between the mating part and the lid. Furthermore, the flange covering at least a portion of the connecting part also protects the connecting part, extending the service life of the mating part.

[0016] Optionally, the connecting part includes a connecting section and two extension sections. The connecting section is connected to the folding part. The two extension sections are located on both sides of the connecting section along the height direction of the lid. One end of each extension section is connected to the connecting section, and the other end of each extension section is free. There is a gap between the extension section and the connecting section along the height direction of the lid. The flange is pressed against the extension section.

[0017] In this design, during the engagement of the connecting section and the flange, the gap between the extension section and the connecting section provides space for the elastic deformation of the extension section. This allows the two extension sections of the connecting section to undergo elastic deformation and fit tightly against the flange of the lid, eliminating gaps between the extension sections and the flange and improving the connection reliability between the connecting section and the flange. Simultaneously, the two extension sections are located on either side of the connecting section along the height of the lid, and the gap between the extension sections and the connecting section protects the connecting section during engagement. When the extension section undergoes elastic deformation and presses against the flange, the gap between the extension section and the connecting section provides sufficient space to ensure that the deformation of the extension section does not affect the connecting section.

[0018] Optionally, the connecting portion and the flange are annular.

[0019] In this design, the ring-shaped connecting part and flange result in a larger connection area between them, leading to better connection strength. Furthermore, it better prevents the entry of external environmental impurities, reducing the risk of external environmental factors affecting the connection between the connecting part and flange, and also facilitates cleaning by the user.

[0020] Optionally, the bottom wall of the body portion has a first through hole.

[0021] In this solution, when the mating component is used as an anti-overflow component, the first through hole can quickly allow boiling steam to enter the accommodating space between the mating component and the cover, thereby achieving rapid defoaming and anti-overflow effect.

[0022] Optionally, the bottom wall of the main body also has a plurality of second through holes, the plurality of second through holes being located on the outer periphery of the first through hole, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the second through hole being smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole.

[0023] In this design, the bottom of the main body has a first through hole with a large cross-sectional area, and multiple second through holes with smaller cross-sectional areas evenly distributed along the outer periphery of the first through hole. The second through holes allow liquid in the containing space to flow back into the pot body of the containing cavity, achieving effects such as draining water and oil. The combined design of the first and second through holes makes the pot lid suitable for various usage scenarios, increasing the versatility of the pot lid.

[0024] Optionally, the mating component is made of an integrally formed elastic material.

[0025] In this solution, the one-piece molding manufacturing process improves the material strength of the mating parts, making them less prone to fatigue damage and extending the service life of the lid. Meanwhile, the use of elastic materials in the mating parts offers advantages such as high-temperature resistance and non-toxicity. Furthermore, during use, the elastic materials provide excellent flexibility and malleability, allowing users to easily switch the lid between folded and unfolded states, and ensuring the lid remains stably in either position.

[0026] In another aspect, this application provides a cookware, which includes a pot body and a lid, the lid being able to cover the opening of the pot body.

[0027] The pot lid is the pot lid described above.

[0049] To better understand the technical solution of this application, the embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] It should be understood that the described embodiments are merely some, not all, of the embodiments in this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0051] The terminology used in the embodiments of this application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of this application. The singular forms “a,” “the,” and “the” used in the embodiments of this application and the appended claims are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0052] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is merely a description of the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A existing alone, A and B existing simultaneously, or B existing alone. Additionally, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application provides a cookware, which includes a pot body and a pot lid, and the pot lid can be closed to the opening of the pot body.

[0054] In some embodiments, the specific type of cookware may be a rice cooker, a multi-functional cooker, a pressure cooker, etc. This application does not limit the specific type of cookware.

[0055] like Figures 2-4 As shown in the figure, this application provides a pot lid, which includes a lid body 1 and a mating part 2.

[0056] The mating component 2 includes a body portion 21 and a connecting portion 22. The connecting portion 22 is located on the outer periphery of the body portion 21 and can be detachably connected to the lid 1 to provide a receiving space between the mating component 2 and the lid 1. At least a portion of the body portion 21 can deform to change the size of the receiving space along the height direction of the lid. In some embodiments, the mating component 2 can be used as an anti-overflow component to release high-temperature steam in the pot, eliminate bubbles, reduce the pressure inside the pot, and prevent food in the pot from overflowing directly due to high-temperature boiling, thus avoiding burns to the user. In other embodiments, the mating component 2 can also be used as a steaming rack for steaming food, as a drain basket, as an oil drain basket, and as a washing container, etc. This application does not limit the specific use case of the mating component 2. The body portion 21 includes a bottom wall 211 and a folding portion 212. Along the radial direction of the lid, the folding portion 212 is connected between the bottom wall 211 and the connecting portion 22, and the folding portion 212 can elastically deform to drive the bottom wall 211 to move along the height direction of the lid.

[0057] In this embodiment, on the one hand, the connecting part 22 is detachably connected to the cover 1, and the user can install or remove the mating part 2 through simple operation, which is convenient for cleaning and solves the problem of traditional anti-overflow pot lids being difficult to clean. While achieving the physical anti-overflow function, it can be easily disassembled and cleaned.

[0058] On the other hand, the folded portion 212 of the mating part 2 can deform to drive the bottom wall 211 to move along the height direction of the lid, thereby allowing the accommodating space between the mating part 2 and the lid body 1 to be adjusted in size along the height direction of the lid. The mating part 2 can be in a position where... Figure 2 The folded state shown can also be in Figure 3 The unfolded state shown indicates that the fitting part 2 can be folded according to the different volumes of pots, adjusting the volume of food being cooked in the pot. The pot lid of this embodiment is an adjustable lid with a wide capacity, making it highly adaptable and suitable for various usage scenarios, thus improving the user experience.

[0059] In addition, the versatility of the fitting part 2 can improve the versatility of the pot lid in the embodiments of this application.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, the mating part 2 is made of an integrally formed elastic material. The mating part 2, made of soft material, is capable of elastic deformation.

[0061] Preferably, the mating part 2 can be made of food-grade silicone and can be directly injection molded from silicone material.

[0062] In this embodiment, the one-piece molding manufacturing process improves the material strength of the mating part 2, making it less prone to fatigue damage and extending the service life of the pot lid. Meanwhile, the mating part 2, made of elastic materials such as silicone, has advantages such as high temperature resistance and no toxic side effects. Furthermore, during the use of the pot, the elastic material mating part 2 exhibits good flexibility and plasticity, allowing users to easily switch the pot lid to a folded or unfolded state, and ensuring the pot lid remains stably in either position.

[0063] In other embodiments, the mating part 2 may also be made of other elastic materials, as long as the material of the mating part 2 can meet the characteristics of elastic deformation, good thermal stability, and no toxic side effects.

[0064] In some embodiments, the fold 212 includes at least two opposing bent segments, and the included angle between adjacent bent segments can vary so that the fold 212 can be elastically deformed.

[0065] Specifically, the included angle between adjacent bending segments can change, making the folded part 212 more prone to elastic deformation, thereby adjusting the position of the bottom wall 211 along the height direction of the lid.

[0066] In this embodiment, the folding part 212 is elastically deformed along the height direction of the lid by changing the included angle between adjacent bending segments, so that the bending segments are folded or unfolded in sequence, thereby realizing the rapid switching of the mating part 2 between the folded state and the unfolded state.

[0067] In addition, such as Figure 4 As shown, the specific number of bent segments can be four. In other embodiments, the number of bent segments can also be two, three, five, etc., and this application does not limit the specific number of bent segments.

[0068] In the optional solutions of this embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the bending section includes at least a first bending section 212a and a second bending section 212b. The first bending section 212a is connected to the connecting part 22 and extends along the height direction of the lid. The second bending section 212b has an included angle with the first bending section 212a.

[0069] Specifically, when mating part 2 is in such a state Figure 2 When the folded state is shown, the included angle between adjacent bent segments is small; generally, the included angle at this time is an acute angle. When the mating part 2 is in such a state... Figure 3 When the unfolded state is shown, the included angle between adjacent bent segments is relatively large. Generally, the included angle at this time is a right angle or an obtuse angle.

[0070] In this embodiment, as Figure 4As shown, the first bent section 212a is connected to the connecting part 22 and extends downward along the height direction of the lid. The extension of the first bent section 212a along the height direction of the lid ensures that the elastic deformation of the folding part 212 will not affect the connecting part 22. That is, the movement of the body part 21 along the height direction of the lid will not affect the connection between the connecting part 22 and the lid 1 in the radial direction of the lid. This allows the mating part 2 to be stably connected to the lid 1, improving the connection reliability between the mating part 2 and the lid 1.

[0071] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the outer periphery of the lid 1 has a flange 11 extending downward along the height direction of the lid, the flange 11 wraps around at least a portion of the connecting portion 22, and the flange 11 is pressed against the connecting portion 22.

[0072] In this embodiment, the flange 11 covers at least a portion of the connecting portion 22 and presses the flange 11 tightly against the connecting portion 22, resulting in a high connection strength between the mating part 2 and the lid 1. This prevents the mating part 2 from easily detaching during use of the cookware, improving the reliability of the connection between the mating part 2 and the lid 1. Furthermore, when the flange 11 covers at least a portion of the connecting portion 22, it protects the connecting portion 22, thus extending the service life of the mating part 2.

[0073] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the connecting part 22 includes a connecting section 221 and two extension sections 222. The connecting section 221 is connected to the folding part 212. The two extension sections 222 are located on both sides of the connecting section 221 along the height direction. One end of the extension section 222 is connected to the connecting section 221, and the other end is free. There is a gap between the extension section 222 and the connecting section 221 along the height direction of the lid. The flange 11 is pressed against the extension section 222.

[0074] In this embodiment, during the engagement of the connecting portion 22 and the flange 11, the gap between the extension segment 222 and the connecting segment 221 provides space for the elastic deformation of the extension segment 222. This allows the two extension segments 222 of the connecting portion 22 to undergo elastic deformation and fit tightly against the flange 11 of the lid 1, eliminating the gap between the extension segment 222 and the flange 11 and improving the connection reliability between the connecting portion 22 and the flange 11. Simultaneously, the two extension segments 222 are located on both sides of the connecting segment 221 along the height direction of the lid, and the gap between the extension segment 222 and the connecting segment 221 provides protection for the connecting segment 221 when the extension segment 222 engages with the flange 11. When the extension segment 222 undergoes elastic deformation and presses against the flange 11, the gap between the extension segment 222 and the connecting segment 221 provides sufficient space so that the deformation of the extension segment 222 does not affect the connecting segment 221.

[0075] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, the connecting part 22 and the flange 11 are annular.

[0076] In this embodiment, the annular structure of the connecting part 22 and the flange 11 results in a larger connection area between the connecting part 22 and the flange 11, thus providing better connection strength. At the same time, it can better avoid the influence of external environmental impurities, reducing the risk of the external environment affecting the connection effect between the connecting part 22 and the flange 11, and is more conducive to user cleaning.

[0077] In addition, the end of the flange 11 is also ring-shaped, and the end of the flange 11 can fit tightly against the inner wall of the pot, thereby improving the sealing of the pot during use.

[0078] In the above embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, the bottom wall 211 of the main body 21 has a first through hole 211a.

[0079] When the mating part 2 is used as an anti-overflow component, the first through hole 211a can quickly allow boiling steam to enter the accommodating space between the mating part 2 and the cover 1, thereby achieving rapid defoaming and anti-overflow effect.

[0080] In addition, the bottom wall 211 of the main body 21 also has a plurality of second through holes 211b, which are located on the outer periphery of the first through hole 211a, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the second through hole 211b is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 211a.

[0081] In this embodiment, the bottom of the main body 21 has a first through hole 211a with a large cross-sectional area, and a plurality of second through holes 211b with smaller cross-sectional areas evenly distributed along the outer periphery of the first through hole 211a. The second through holes 211b allow liquid in the containing space to flow back into the pot body, achieving effects such as draining water and oil. The cooperative design of the first through hole 211a and the second through holes 211b makes the pot lid suitable for various usage scenarios, increasing the versatility of the pot lid.

[0082] The above descriptions are merely specific implementations of the embodiments of this application, but the protection scope of the embodiments of this application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in the embodiments of this application should be covered within the protection scope of the embodiments of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of the embodiments of this application should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
