[0038] Air fryers and air ovens are cooking devices that use hot air circulation and the food's own oils to fry food. Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of a cooking device, such as... Figure 1 As shown, this type of cooking appliance includes a body 10 and a pot 20. One side of the body 10 has a receiving groove 10a into which the pot 20 can be inserted. The body 10 is used for heating. During the process of removing and placing the pot 20, the edge of the opening of the pot 20 is prone to scraping against the inner wall of the receiving groove 10a, thus forming scratches on the inner walls of both the pot 20 and the receiving groove 10a.

[0039] In order to reduce scratches on the inner walls of the cookware 20 and the receiving groove 10a, an embodiment of this application provides a cookware.

[0040] Figure 2This is a structural schematic diagram of a cookware provided in an embodiment of this application, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the cookware 20 includes a pot body 21 and a rim 23. The outer side of the opening of the pot body 21 is provided with a flange structure 22.

[0041] Figure 3 This is a cross-sectional view of a cookware provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 yes Figure 3 An enlarged diagram of point A in the diagram, as shown below. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the flange structure 22 includes a first flange 221 and a second flange 222. The first flange 221 is connected to the edge of the opening, and the second flange 222 is connected to the edge of the first flange 221. The first flange 221 and the second flange 222 have different folding directions. An edging 23 is provided along the flange structure 22 and covers the outside of the flange structure 22.

[0042] A flanged structure 22 is provided on the outer side of the opening of the pot body 21. The flanged structure 22 includes a first flange 221 connected to the edge of the opening and a second flange 222 connected to the edge of the first flange 221. The first flange 221 and the second flange 222 have different folding directions, giving the flanged structure 22 a larger area. A rim 23 is provided along the flanged structure 22 to cover it. The different folding directions of the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 result in a larger thickness for the flanged structure 22. The rim 23 covering the flanged structure 22 creates a larger outer surface area, increasing the edge area of ​​the opening and making the edge of the opening smoother. When the pot is removed or placed into the receiving slot of the machine body, the rim 23 contacts the machine body, reducing scratches at the opening edge of the pot body 21 and on the inner wall of the receiving slot.

[0043] The first flange 221 and the second flange 222 have different folding directions. The first flange 221 is folded away from the opening relative to the pot body 21, while the second flange 222 is folded towards the opening of the pot body 21 relative to the first flange 221.

[0044] As an example, the second flange 222 is folded relative to the first flange 221 toward the bottom of the pot body 21. At least a portion of the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 are located within the edging 23.

[0045] The first flange 221 folds outward relative to the side wall of the pot body 21, and the second flange 222 folds outward relative to the first flange 221, so that the flange structure 22 folds outward relative to the side wall of the pot body 21 twice. At least a part of the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 are covered by the edging 23, so that the edging 23 is firmly connected to the flange structure 22 and is not easy to loosen.

[0046] In some examples, the edging 23 may include a first blocking portion 231, a second blocking portion 232, and a third blocking portion 233 connected in sequence. The first blocking portion 231 is located on the side of the first flange 221 away from the bottom of the pot body 21, the second blocking portion 232 is located on the side of the second flange 222 away from the pot body 21, and the third blocking portion 233 is located on the side of the second flange 222 closer to the pot body 21.

[0047] The first blocking part 231 abuts against one side of the first flange 221, the second blocking part 232 abuts against the side of the second flange 222 away from the pot body 21, and the third blocking part 233 abuts against the other side of the first flange 221 and / or the second flange 222.

[0048] The edging 23 is bent into three parts. The first blocking part 231, the second blocking part 232 and the third blocking part 233 abut against the flange structure 22 from three directions. This not only completely covers the edge of the flange structure 22 to prevent scratches, but also makes the edging 23 stable to install and will not loosen when subjected to forces from different directions.

[0049] like Figure 4 As shown, the first blocking portion 231 and the first flange 221 are arranged at an angle α. Furthermore, the edge of the first blocking portion 231 abuts against the first flange 221, and the abutment portion is as follows... Figure 4 As indicated by the middle arrow B. Here, the edge of the first blocking part 231 refers to the side of the first blocking part 231 away from the second blocking part 232.

[0050] The edge of the first shielding part 231 abuts against the surface of the first flange 221 to prevent foreign objects from getting stuck between the first shielding part 231 and the first flange 221, and to prevent dirt from accumulating in the gap.

[0051] Because the first shielding part 231 and the first flange 221 are arranged at an angle, with the angle located at the edge of the first shielding part 231, when the edging 23 is subjected to external force, such as pressing down on the edging 23 or pushing the edging 23 towards the pot body 21, the first shielding part 231 can maintain contact with the first flange 221 without lifting up. Even after the cookware has been used for a long time, the first shielding part 231 can still maintain contact with the first flange 221, preventing foreign objects from entering the gap between the first shielding part 231 and the first flange 221, which helps to keep the cookware clean.

[0052] For example, the included angle α can be an acute angle, such as 10° to 30°.

[0053] The second shielding part 232 and the second flange 222 can be in line contact, for example, Figure 4 In the middle, the second shielding part 232 abuts against the second flange 222, forming two points of line contact, as shown respectively. Figure 4The positions indicated by arrows C and D in the diagram.

[0054] In some other possible implementations, the second blocking part 232 and the second flange 222 can also form surface contact, that is, the second blocking part 232 can fit against the second flange 222.

[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, the edge of the third blocking portion 233 bends towards the second flange 222 to form a bent portion 2331. The bent portion 2331 abuts against the first flange 221 and the second flange 222 respectively. The abutting portion is as follows: Figure 4 As indicated by arrows E and F.

[0056] The bent portion 2331 abuts against the first flange 221, and the first blocking portion 231 also abuts against the first flange 221. The bent portion 2331 and the first blocking portion 231 are located on opposite sides of the first flange 221, which can hold the first flange 221, so that the edge 23 can remain stable and not loose in the direction perpendicular to the first flange 221.

[0057] The bent portion 2331 abuts against the second flange 222, and the second blocking portion 232 also abuts against the second flange 222. The bent portion 2331 and the second blocking portion 232 are located on opposite sides of the second flange 222, which can hold the second flange 222, so that the edge 23 can remain stable and not loose in the direction perpendicular to the second flange 222.

[0058] For example, the bend 2331 can be arc-shaped, and the arc-shaped bend 2331 can avoid forming scratches on the surface of the flange structure 22.

[0059] exist Figure 4 In the example shown, the edging 23 forms line contact with the upper and lower sides of the first flange 221 and with the left and right sides of the second flange 222, so that the edging 23 can remain stable and difficult to loosen by being restricted by the flange structure 22 in the four directions of up, down, left and right as shown in the figure.

[0060] In some examples, the edging 23 can be a metal part. The metal part is easy to bend to form the first blocking part 231, the second blocking part 232 and the third blocking part 233, and the metal part can provide a certain elasticity after bending. Under the action of the elasticity of the metal, the area where the edging 23 contacts the flange structure 22 is kept under a certain compression, which helps to prevent the edging 23 from loosening.

[0061] As an example, the edging 23 can be made of stainless steel.

[0062] For example, 430 stainless steel, 304 stainless steel, and 316L stainless steel.

[0063] Stainless steel parts have strong wear resistance and are not easily scratched. Even if the cookware develops some scratches after prolonged use, the color of the scratches on the stainless steel surface is very close to the color of the stainless steel material itself, making the scratches not obvious.

[0064] In some examples, the outer surface of the pot body 21 may also be provided with a wear-resistant layer to improve the wear resistance of the outer surface of the pot body 21 and reduce the generation of scratches on the outer surface of the pot body 21.

[0065] For example, the outer surface of the pot body 21 may be provided with an enamel layer. The enamel material has high hardness, wear resistance and high temperature resistance, which can effectively protect the pot body 21 and prevent scratches from forming on the surface of the pot body 21.

[0066] This application embodiment also provides a cooking device, which may be, but is not limited to, an air fryer or an air oven. The cooking device may include a body 10 and any of the aforementioned cookware 20. One side of the body 10 has a receiving groove 10a, in which the cookware 20 is inserted.

[0067] By applying any of the aforementioned cookware 20 to the cooking equipment, the edging 23 increases the edge area of ​​the opening of the pot body 21, making the edge of the opening smoother. When the cookware 20 is taken out or placed into the receiving slot 10a of the machine body 10, the edging 23 contacts the machine body 10, which can reduce scratches formed at the edge of the opening of the pot body 21 and on the inner wall of the receiving slot 10a.

[0068] Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the body of a cooking device provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 5 As shown, the inner wall of the receiving groove 10a is provided with a first protruding rib 101, which is used to contact the edge 23.

[0069] As an example, the first rib 101 may include multiple ribs, which are arranged along the first direction X and extend along the second direction Y. The first direction X is the insertion direction of the cookware 20, and the second direction Y intersects with the first direction X. For example, the second direction Y may be perpendicular to the first direction X.

[0070] The receiving groove 10a is located on one side of the fuselage 10. The first direction X is also the direction that extends inward from the opening of the receiving groove 10a, that is, the depth direction of the receiving groove 10a. The second direction Y is also the height direction of the fuselage 10 when it is placed upright.

[0071] By setting multiple first ribs 101 arranged at intervals to contact the edge 23, the contact area between each first rib 101 and the edge 23 is small. Even if scratches are formed on the surface of the first rib 101, the length of the scratch on the surface of each first rib 101 is at most the same as the width of the first rib 101. It will not form a long scratch on the inner sidewall of the receiving groove 10a, so that the scratches will not be too obvious.

[0072] The multiple inner sidewalls of the receiving groove 10a can be provided with first ribs 101, which can prevent obvious scratches from forming on any inner sidewall.

[0073] In some examples, the first rib 101 is made of stainless steel.

[0074] For example, 430 stainless steel, 304 stainless steel, and 316L stainless steel.

[0075] Stainless steel parts have strong wear resistance and are not easily scratched. Even if scratches are formed on the surface of the first raised rib 101 of the stainless steel structure, the color of the scratches is very close to the color of the stainless steel material itself, making the scratches not obvious.

[0076] The first raised rib 101 is located near the opening of the pot body 21. The stainless steel material is stable and will not produce odors when exposed to high temperatures, nor will it release harmful substances that contaminate the food inside the pot 20, making it safer and healthier.

[0077] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the body of a cooking device provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 6 As shown, the bottom of the receiving groove 10a is provided with a second rib 102 for supporting the sliding of the pot 20.

[0078] As an example, the bottom of the receiving groove 10a may be provided with a plurality of second ribs 102, which are arranged along a third direction Z and extend along a first direction X. The third direction Z intersects the first direction, for example, the third direction Z is perpendicular to the first direction X.

[0079] The third direction Z can be the width direction of the receiving slot 10a when the fuselage 10 is placed upright, and the first direction X, the second direction Y and the third direction Z are perpendicular to each other.

[0080] The second rib 102 located at the bottom of the receiving groove 10a can support the bottom of the cookware 20, reduce the contact area between the bottom of the cookware 20 and the bottom of the receiving groove 10a, and prevent the cookware 20 from colliding with the bottom of the receiving groove 10a when it is taken out or put in, thus avoiding a large abnormal noise.

[0081] The second rib 102 supports the bottom of the cookware 20, which can also prevent large-area scratches from forming on the bottom of the cookware 20.

[0082] For example, the bottom of the receiving groove 10a may be provided with two parallel second ribs 102. The two parallel and spaced second ribs 102 support the pot 20, resulting in a small contact area and enabling the pot 20 to remain stable.

[0083] In some examples, the second rib 102 can be a wear-resistant plastic structure, that is, the second rib 102 is made of wear-resistant plastic material.

[0084] The pot body 21 is typically made of a hard material such as metal. The second rib 102, made of wear-resistant plastic material, is less hard than the pot body 21, making it less likely to form noticeable scratches on the surface of the pot body 21. In addition, the wear-resistant plastic structure can also provide a certain amount of friction, making the pot body 21 more stable.

[0085] The second rib 102 can be bonded to the bottom of the receiving groove 10a or snapped onto the bottom of the receiving groove 10a, so that the second rib 102 can be replaced after it is damaged, thus extending the service life of the cooking equipment.

[0086] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of a cooking device provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 8 yes Figure 7 An enlarged diagram of point G in the diagram, as shown below. Figure 8 As shown, the cookware 20 is placed in the receiving groove 10a of the body 10, with the edging 23 facing the first rib 101 and a gap between them. During the process of placing or removing the cookware 20, if the position of the cookware 20 shifts, it can come into contact with the first rib 101. The contact area between the first rib 101 and the edging 23 is small, preventing the formation of long scratches on the inner wall of the receiving groove 10a, thus minimizing the visibility of the scratches.

[0087] Figure 9 yes Figure 7 An enlarged diagram of point H in the diagram, as shown below. Figure 9 As shown, the cookware 20 is placed in the receiving groove 10a of the body 10, and the bottom of the cookware 20 is supported by the second rib 102. The contact area between the second rib 102 and the bottom of the cookware 20 is small, which can avoid the formation of large-area scratches on the bottom of the cookware 20.

[0088] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this application, and are not intended to limit them. Although this application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
