Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mixing bowls, specifically a mixing bowl structure. Background Technology
[0002] In the fields of pasta making, baking, and food fermentation, mixing bowls are indispensable tools. Traditional mixing bowls are typically just simple containers, which presents many inconveniences when used for dough fermentation, food preservation, or heating. For example, during dough fermentation, it's necessary to maintain suitable humidity and temperature, and release the gases produced during fermentation in a timely manner to prevent the dough from over-expanding or spoiling. The traditional method is to cover the bowl with a damp cloth, but this not only provides poor sealing, easily causing the dough surface to dry out, but also fails to effectively control gas release.
[0003] Some mixing bowls with lids exist in the current technology, but the function of these lids is usually quite limited. Some lids are completely sealed, which can keep the dough moist but cannot release air, and the internal pressure can build up during fermentation or microwave heating, posing a safety hazard. Others simply have vents, but they cannot flexibly adjust the amount of air released according to actual needs (such as the size of the dough, the ambient temperature, whether heating is required, etc.). Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mixing bowl structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0027] 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.
[0028] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment discloses a mixing bowl structure for use without soiling the mixing bowl. It includes a rigid mixing bowl body 11 (selectively made of stainless steel, food-grade plastic, or glass, etc.) defining a bowl cavity and a liner 1. The bowl body 11 has an inner surface adjacent to the bowl cavity and a top edge defining an opening near the bowl cavity. The liner 1 is insertable into the bowl cavity of the bowl body 11. The outer wall of the liner 1 is the same width as the inner surface of the bowl body 11. When the liner 1 is inserted into the bowl body 11, the opening edge of the liner 1 abuts against the top edge of the mixing bowl.
[0029] It also includes a cover body 2. The inner liner 1 has an outward protruding ring at the opening edge. The protruding ring is close to the edge but not to the edge. The cover body 2 has a groove that matches the protruding ring near the edge to improve the sealing effect. In particular, when the pressure inside the bowl increases, the cover body 2 deforms upward. The protruding ring and the groove are more firmly engaged under the deformation of the cover body 2, resulting in better sealing.
[0030] The inner liner 1 has a recessed ring 7 at the bottom of its opening edge, and the cover 2 has a retaining ring 71 at the edge of its groove that matches the recessed ring, creating a double-layer sealing structure to ensure better sealing between the cover 2 and the inner liner 1. Especially during sealed fermentation, the gas inside the inner liner 1 increases, leading to increased internal pressure and upward pressure on the cover 2, causing upward deformation. Under this deformation, the retaining ring 71 and the recessed ring 7 engage more tightly and securely. The cover and the inner liner employ a double sealing structure of a convex ring and a groove, as well as a retaining ring and a recessed ring. This design not only provides a good seal under normal conditions, but also, when internal pressure increases, the upward pressure causes the retaining ring and the recessed ring to engage even more tightly, forming a "pressure self-tightening" seal, significantly improving sealing reliability under high-pressure scenarios such as fermentation.
[0031] A base 3 is also provided on the cover 2. The base 3 has a T-shaped structure, and four protruding units are fixedly installed on the lower surface of the base 3. Each of the four protruding units consists of four cylinders 31 and a truncated cone 32 located at one end of each cylinder. The truncated cone 32 is coaxially arranged with the cylinders 31, and the diameter of the truncated cone 32 gradually decreases away from the cylinder. The cylinders 31, truncated cones 32, and base 3 of each protruding unit are integrally formed, and the multiple protruding units are distributed with different sizes on the base. Figure 4 As shown, the specific differences are as follows: A protruding unit is provided at the intersection of the T-shaped structures, and the diameters of its cylinder 31 and truncated cone 32 are relatively small, serving as a snap-fit post. The other three protruding units are located at the ends of the T-shaped structures and serve as sealing posts, with larger diameters for their cylinder 31 and truncated cone 32.
[0032] The base 3, cylinder 31 and truncated cone 32 are all made of flexible, non-toxic materials such as rubber or silicone.
[0033] Among them, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cover 2 and the T-shaped structure are connected by a quick-release snap-fit structure: the cover 2 has snap-fit holes 6 and placement holes 4 that are adapted to the T-shaped structure (i.e., the protruding unit). The cover 2 has 5 holes, one centrally located opening serving as the snap-fit hole 6, four symmetrically arranged in pairs near the snap-fit hole, and the remaining four holes are two placement holes 4 and two openings 5, respectively. The two placement holes 4 and two openings 5 are staggered, and the four holes are arranged in a square array. The snap-fit hole 6 is located at the center of the square. The placement hole 4 is a closed-hole structure, and the upper end of the placement hole 4 forms a placement cavity, while the opening 5 on the cover 2 is a through-hole structure, allowing the inner cavity of the liner 1 to communicate with the outside through the opening 5.
[0034] The entrances of the snap-fit hole 6 and the placement hole 4 are provided with flared guide portions, and the interiors have snap-fit cavities or placement cavities that match the truncated conical snap-fit head. The depth of the snap-fit hole 6 is greater than the height of the truncated cone 32 of the snap-fit post, allowing the snap-fit post to move up and down within the snap-fit hole 6, thus ensuring that the base 3 can move up and down and separate from the cover 2 along with the remaining protruding units. When the protruding unit is inserted into the snap-fit hole of the cover 2, it forms an interference fit with the snap-fit cavity through its own taper, achieving rapid snap-fit. When the protruding unit falls into the placement cavity of the cover 2, it can be placed quickly and without obstruction. At the same time, the bottom surface of the T-shaped base 3 abuts against the surface of the cover 2, limiting the connection depth. In this embodiment, the cylindrical height of the snap-fit post is greater than the height of the sealing post. When the snap-fit post moves upward to its highest position, and the sealing post just disengages from the placement hole 4 or the opening 5, the base 3 can be rotated.
[0035] The base's locking pins and the locking holes in the center of the cover are connected by quick-release snaps, achieving rapid locking and unlocking through the interference fit between the truncated cone and the locking cavity. This design makes the base very convenient to install and remove as a whole. At the same time, the locking pins can move up and down within the locking holes, providing a structural basis for the base's rotational adjustment, thus achieving a balance between functionality and ease of operation.
[0036] In use, press the smallest protruding unit (i.e., the snap-fit post) of the T-shaped structure into the central opening of the cover 2. Using the smallest opening as a fulcrum, the entire system's venting and air-release function is achieved by rotating the angle of the T-shaped structure. When two of the other three protruding units on the T-shaped structure are pressed into the two openings of the cover 2, the entire system is in a completely closed state (no venting or air-release function). When the three protruding units at the end are pulled out and rotated 90 degrees, two of the three protruding units are inserted into the placement hole 4, and one is inserted into one of the openings 5. Pressing them allows for venting and air-release of a single opening. When the three protruding units at the end are pulled out and rotated approximately 22.2 degrees, the three protruding units are located outside the placement hole 4 and the opening 5, directly contacting the cover 2 (directly contacting the non-placement hole and opening positions of the cover 2), allowing for venting and air-release of two openings. Alternatively, the T-shaped structure can be completely removed to achieve venting and air-release of two openings.
[0037] When there is a large amount of dough or when rapid fermentation is required, it is recommended to open both air holes; when there is a small amount of dough to ferment or when fermenting in the refrigerator, it is recommended to open one air hole; when heating, one air hole valve should be opened; when refrigerating for preservation, all air holes should be closed.
[0038] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
