Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of integrated stove accessories, and in particular to a pot rack adapted to the placement of flat-bottomed and round-bottomed pots. Background Technology

[0002] Existing pot racks are divided into flat-bottomed pot racks and round-bottomed pot racks. Flat-bottomed pot racks consist of a ring-shaped main body and horizontal support legs mounted on the rack; round-bottomed pot racks consist of a ring-shaped main body and horizontal support legs mounted on the rack. Existing pot racks cannot be used for both flat-bottomed and round-bottomed pots simultaneously.

[0003] Currently, some pot racks available online are designed to accommodate different pot shapes, with movable support legs. These legs can be rotated to a horizontal position for flat-bottomed pots or to a tilted position for round-bottomed pots. However, switching between these positions requires repeated adjustments of the support legs, which is slow, inefficient, and prone to damage at the rotating parts of the legs. Furthermore, the pot rack is prone to shifting during pot tossing or moving, affecting usability. Additionally, spilled soup or liquid from the pot rack can flow onto the countertop or into the stove, making it difficult to clean and impacting usability. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a pot rack that is adaptable to both flat-bottomed and round-bottomed pots, accommodating different pot types, easy to switch between, quick to use, and has a sturdy structure that prevents it from shifting and avoids spilling soup.

[0005] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a pot rack adapted for balancing flat-bottomed and round-bottomed pots, comprising an hourglass-shaped pot rack body and an annular base fitted around a burner. The pot rack body has a mounting opening in the middle to accommodate the burner. The top inner ring of the pot rack body has a plurality of round-bottomed pot support feet distributed circumferentially to support round-bottomed pots, and the bottom inner wall of the pot rack body has a plurality of flat-bottomed pot support feet distributed circumferentially to support flat-bottomed pots. The annular base is annular and has slots for inserting round-bottomed pot support feet or flat-bottomed pot support feet. The slots are distributed circumferentially along the annular base, and water collection grooves are formed between adjacent slots. When in use, the round-bottomed pan support feet can support a round-bottomed pan. When a flat-bottomed pan is needed, simply flip the main body of the pan rack over so that the side with the flat-bottomed pan support feet is facing up, and place the flat-bottomed pan on the support feet. In other words, switching between uses is as simple as flipping the main body of the pan rack over; there is no need to repeatedly adjust the support feet, making operation convenient, fast, and efficient. Moreover, the round-bottomed and flat-bottomed pan support feet are separate, eliminating the need for a movable structure and reducing the risk of damage. The ring base is fitted around the burner, and the round-bottomed or flat-bottomed pan support feet can be inserted into the slots of the ring base to prevent the pan rack from shifting during pan tossing or handling, thus avoiding any impact on use. Furthermore, any soup overflowing from the pan will flow down the inner wall of the main body of the pan rack into the water collection tank, preventing soup from spilling onto the countertop or into the gas stove. The main body of the pan rack can be removed for cleaning, making cleaning convenient and avoiding any impact on use.

[0006] Furthermore, the annular base has a guide ring extending directly below the edge of the mounting opening. The guide ring is higher than the outer ring of the annular base, and the water receiving groove is located on the outer ring of the annular base. The inner edge of the guide ring forms an upward-protruding water-blocking ring. Water overflowing from the pot flows from the inner wall of the pot holder body to the mounting opening, and then flows onto the guide ring. Since the guide ring is higher than the outer ring of the annular base, the water will flow along the guide ring into the water receiving groove of the outer ring. The water-blocking ring prevents water from flowing from the guide ring into the gas stove.

[0007] Furthermore, the flat-bottomed pan support foot is a horizontal support foot, and the round-bottomed pan support foot is an inclined support foot that is set from the outer periphery of the pan holder body downwards towards the center.

[0008] Furthermore, the hourglass-shaped pot holder body includes a frustum-shaped upper sleeve and a frustum-shaped lower sleeve, with the smaller openings of the upper and lower sleeves connected to form a mounting opening. The structure is simple and the performance is good.

[0009] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When switching between using a flat-bottomed pan and a round-bottomed pan, simply flip the main body of the pan rack over; no repeated adjustments are required, making operation fast, efficient, and convenient. Furthermore, the round-bottomed pan support feet or flat-bottomed pan support feet do not require a rotating structure and are less prone to damage. The round-bottomed pan support feet or flat-bottomed pan support feet can be inserted into the slots of the ring base, preventing the pan rack from shifting during pan tossing or handling, thus avoiding any impact on use. When soup overflows from the pan rack, it flows into the water collection tank, preventing soup from spilling onto the countertop or into the gas stove, facilitating cleaning and preventing any disruption to use.

[0014] like Figure 1-6 As shown, a pot rack adapted for balancing flat-bottomed and round-bottomed pans is mounted on a gas stove countertop 103. The pot rack includes a main body 1 and an annular base 2. The annular base 2 is fitted around the burner 100. A mounting opening 3 is formed in the center of the main body 1; the mounting opening 3 is circular and is used to accommodate the burner 100. Four round-bottomed pan support feet 11 are distributed circumferentially around the top inner ring of the main body 1. These round-bottomed pan support feet 11 support round-bottomed pans 101. These round-bottomed pan support feet 11 are inclined support feet that slope downwards from the outer periphery of the main body 1 towards the center; these inclined support feet are existing products and will not be described further here. Four flat-bottomed pan support feet 12 are distributed circumferentially around the bottom inner wall of the main body 1. These flat-bottomed pan support feet 12 support flat-bottomed pans 102. These flat-bottomed pan support feet 12 are horizontal support feet; these horizontal support feet are also existing products.

[0015] The annular base 2 is circular in shape and has slots 21. The number of slots 21 is the same as that of the round-bottomed pot support legs 11 and the flat-bottomed pot support legs 12. The slots 21 are positioned correspondingly and their shapes are also adapted to the round-bottomed pot support legs 11 and the flat-bottomed pot support legs 12. The slots 21 are used to insert the round-bottomed pot support legs 11 or the flat-bottomed pot support legs 12. The slots 21 are distributed around the circumference of the annular base 2. A water-receiving groove 22 is formed between adjacent slots 21. There are four water-receiving grooves 22, and the water-receiving grooves 22 are arc-shaped.

[0016] The inner ring of the annular base 2 is a guide ring 23, which extends to directly below the edge of the mounting opening 3. The guide ring 23 is higher than the outer ring 24 of the annular base 2. The joint between the guide ring 23 and the outer ring 24 of the annular base 2 is a sloping design. The water receiving groove 22 is provided on the outer ring 24 of the annular base 2. The inner edge of the guide ring 23 forms a water-blocking protrusion 4, which protrudes upward.

[0017] The pot frame body 1 is hourglass-shaped, and the hourglass-shaped pot frame body 1 includes an upper sleeve 1a and a lower sleeve 1b. Both the upper sleeve 1a and the lower sleeve 1b are frustum-shaped, and the smaller openings of the upper sleeve 1a and the lower sleeve 1b are connected to form a mounting opening 3.

[0018] When using the round-bottomed pot 101, the annular base 2 is fitted over the burner 100, then the pot holder body 1 is placed on it, and the flat-bottomed pot support leg 12 is inserted into the slot 21, with the round-bottomed pot support leg 11 facing upwards. The round-bottomed pot 101 is then placed on the round-bottomed pot support leg 11. Figure 3 As shown. The soup flowing out of the round-bottomed pot 101 flows obliquely into the placement port 3 along the upper sleeve 1a, then drips onto the guide ring 23, and then flows outward along the guide ring 23 to the outer ring 24, and finally the soup collects in the water receiving tank 22.

[0019] When switching to use the frying pan 102, flip the pan holder body 1 so that the frying pan support foot 12 is facing upwards. Insert the round-bottomed pan support foot 11 into the slot 21, and then place the frying pan 102 on the frying pan support foot 12. Figure 6 As shown. The soup flowing out of the frying pan 102 flows obliquely into the placement port 3 along the lower sleeve 1b, then drips onto the guide ring 23, then flows out along the guide ring 23 to the outer ring 24, and finally the soup collects in the water receiving tank 22.

[0020] When cleaning is needed, simply remove the main body 1 of the pot rack and then remove the ring base 2 for cleaning. The operation is simple and convenient.
