Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] When choosing a handle, wooden handles offer good anti-slip properties and are widely used in cooking utensils, but solid wood is expensive. Wood-grain handles can effectively reduce production costs compared to solid wood handles, but the water transfer printing technology used in traditional wood-grain handles provides poor anti-slip performance. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a handle and cooking utensil to improve the anti-slip effect of the handle.

[0004] The first aspect of this application provides a handle for a cooking utensil, the handle including a body and a coating, the coating being disposed on the body.

[0005] The body portion has a textured layer, which has raised portions and / or recessed portions. The coating covers the textured layer, and the area of ​​the textured layer accounts for 60%-90% of the surface area of ​​the body portion.

[0006] In this design, a textured layer is engraved on the surface of the main body. Specifically, by engraving raised portions and / or recessed portions on the surface of the main body, the surface roughness is increased. This increases the friction between the main body and the user when gripping the handle, thereby improving slip resistance. The textured layer, with its raised and / or recessed portions, creates a textured structure that provides slip resistance to the handle, making it easier for the user to grip and enhancing the user experience.

[0007] The coating is used to protect the textured layer, improve the stability and wear resistance of the body, and help extend the service life of the handle.

[0008] When the area of ​​the textured layer accounts for 60%-90% of the surface area of ​​the main body, the sum of the areas of the raised and recessed parts is moderate. This not only improves the anti-slip performance of the handle, but also ensures that the processing difficulty of the textured layer is moderate, thus improving the user experience.

[0009] Optionally, the coating includes a first coating layer, a second coating layer, and a protective layer. The first coating layer is disposed on the body portion, the second coating layer is located on the side of the first coating layer away from the body portion, and the protective layer is located on the side of the second coating layer away from the first coating layer. The second coating layer serves to connect the first coating layer and the protective layer.

[0010] In this design, the body is provided with a coating for coloring and sealing. The first coating layer is used for coloring, the protective layer is used for sealing, and the second coating layer is used to connect the first coating layer and the protective layer, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the first coating layer and the protective layer and the firmness of the coating on the body.

[0011] Optionally, the thickness of the first coating layer is T1, where 6μm≤T1≤15μm.

[0012] In this solution, when 6μm≤T1≤15μm is satisfied, the thickness T1 of the first coating layer is moderate, which can satisfy the texture effect of the handle while keeping the production cost low and improving the user experience.

[0013] Optionally, the thickness of the second coating layer is T2, where 6μm≤T2≤15μm.

[0014] In this solution, when 6μm≤T2≤15μm is satisfied, the thickness T2 of the second coating layer is moderate, which can meet the connection effect between the first coating layer and the protective layer while keeping the manufacturing cost low and improving the user experience.

[0015] Optionally, the thickness of the protective layer is T3, where 6μm≤T3≤15μm.

[0016] In this solution, when 6μm≤T3≤15μm is satisfied, the thickness T3 of the protective layer is moderate. It can meet the color rendering effect of the first coating layer and / or the second coating layer while having a low production cost, which is beneficial to the texture effect of the handle and thus improves the user experience.

[0017] Optionally, the depth of the recess is D, where 0.1mm ≤ D ≤ 0.3mm.

[0018] In this design, when 0.1mm≤D≤0.3mm is satisfied, the depth D of the recess is moderate, which can improve the user's grip experience while satisfying the anti-slip effect of the handle, thereby improving the user experience.

[0019] Optionally, the width of the recess is W, where 0.1mm ≤ W ≤ 0.5mm.

[0020] In this design, when 0.1mm≤W≤0.5mm is satisfied, the width W of the recess is moderate, which can meet the anti-slip effect of the handle while reducing the processing difficulty, thereby improving the user's grip experience during use and thus enhancing the user experience.

[0021] Optionally, the length of the recess is L, where 1mm ≤ L ≤ 30mm.

[0022] In this design, when 1mm≤L≤30mm is satisfied, the length L of the recess is moderate, which can meet the anti-slip effect of the handle while reducing the processing difficulty, thereby improving the user's grip experience during use and thus enhancing the user experience.

[0023] Optionally, along the length of the body portion, the two opposite ends of the body portion are a first end and a second end, and along the direction closer to the second end, the cross-sectional area of ​​the body portion gradually decreases or the cross-sectional area of ​​the body portion first decreases and then increases.

[0024] In this design, the cross-sectional area of ​​the main body gradually decreases or the cross-sectional area of ​​the main body first decreases and then increases, which is beneficial for users to grasp and pick up during use, and improves the user experience.

[0025] A second aspect of this application provides a cooking utensil, the utensil including a handle. An embodiment of this application provides a handle and a cooking utensil. The handle includes a body and a coating, the coating being disposed on the body. The body has a textured layer with raised portions and / or recessed portions. The coating covers the textured layer, and the area of ​​the textured layer occupies 60%-90% of the surface area of ​​the body. In this solution, raised portions and / or recessed portions are engraved on the surface of the body, increasing the surface roughness of the body, thereby increasing the friction between the body and the user when the user grips the handle, thus improving anti-slip performance. The coating protects the textured layer, improving the stability and wear resistance of the body, and extending the lifespan of the handle. When the area of ​​the textured layer occupies 60%-90% of the surface area of ​​the body, the sum of the areas of the raised portions and recessed portions is moderate, improving the anti-slip performance of the handle while ensuring that the processing difficulty of the textured layer is moderate, improving the user experience. This application can improve the anti-slip effect of the handle.

[0045] 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.

[0046] 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.

[0047] 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.

[0048] 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.

[0049] In one specific embodiment, this application provides a cooking utensil including a handle. On one hand, the handle provides a gripping point for the user, facilitating the movement or tilting of the cooking utensil. On the other hand, the handle insulates the user from direct contact with the high-temperature cooking utensil, preventing burns and improving the safety of the cooking utensil.

[0050] In terms of materials and manufacturing processes, wooden handles are widely used in cooking utensils due to their good anti-slip properties. However, solid wood is expensive, susceptible to moisture, warping, and cracking, and has poor durability. Therefore, designing wood-look handles reduces production costs. Currently, water transfer printing is a common method for producing wood-look handles. Water transfer printing is a decorative process that uses water pressure to transfer wood grain patterns onto the surface of an object, and it is widely used in the surface treatment of materials such as plastics, metals, and ceramics. The technical principle involves using a water-soluble film to carry the wood grain pattern. After the film is dissolved by an activator, water pressure is used to transfer the pattern onto the object's surface. Finally, cleaning, drying, and applying a protective layer complete the curing process. Traditional water transfer printing methods result in poor anti-slip properties for wood-look handles, and the grain pattern is prone to wear and tear.

[0051] This application provides a design for a handle of a cooking utensil that reduces manufacturing costs while also providing good anti-slip properties.

[0052] In one specific embodiment, this application provides a handle for use in cooking utensils, such as... Figure 1-3 As shown, the handle includes a body portion 1 and a coating 2, with the coating 2 disposed on the body portion 1. The body portion 1 has a textured layer 11, which has protrusions 111 and / or recesses 112. The coating 2 covers the textured layer 11, and the area of ​​the textured layer 11 accounts for 60%-90% of the surface area of ​​the body portion 1.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the body 1 of the handle is specifically the base material of the handle, which can be made of bakelite (phenolic resin). A textured layer 11 is engraved on the surface of the body 1 using etching technology. That is, by engraving protrusions 111 and / or recesses 112 on the surface of the body 1, the surface roughness of the body 1 is increased, thereby increasing the friction between the body 1 and the user when the user grips the handle, thus improving the anti-slip ability. Subsequently, a coating 2 is sprayed onto the surface of the textured layer 11. The coating 2 is used to protect the textured layer 11, improve the stability and wear resistance of the body 1, and help extend the service life of the handle.

[0054] In other embodiments, the body part 1 of the handle may also be made of other materials, such as carbon fiber, silicone composite material, etc. This application does not limit the specific material of the body part 1 of the handle.

[0055] The following description uses the handle body 1, which is made of bakelite material (phenolic resin), as an example.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, the body portion 1 has a texture layer 11, which is provided with protrusions 111 and / or recesses 112. Specifically, the protrusions 111 are raised relative to the surface of the body portion 1, and the recesses 112 are recessed relative to the surface of the body portion 1. In one embodiment, the texture layer 11 may only have protrusions 111, and recesses 112 may be formed between adjacent protrusions 111. In another embodiment, the texture layer 11 may only have recesses 112, and protrusions 111 may be formed between adjacent recesses 112. In yet another embodiment, both protrusions 111 and recesses 112 are provided on the texture layer 11.

[0057] The texture layer 11 is provided with raised portions 111 and / or recessed portions 112, making the texture layer 11 a textured structure. The handle has anti-slip properties, making it easier for users to grip the handle during use and improving the user experience.

[0058] When setting the texture layer 11, the raised parts 111 and the recessed parts 112 can be evenly distributed according to a certain pattern, or they can adopt patterns such as wood grain. The coating 2 can also have a certain color while playing a protective role, including but not limited to the color of wood grain.

[0059] The area of ​​the texture layer 11 accounts for 60%-90% of the surface area of ​​the body portion 1. For example, the area of ​​the texture layer 11 can account for 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, etc. The area of ​​the texture layer 11 is specifically the sum of the areas of the protrusions 111 and the recesses 112.

[0060] In this embodiment, when the area of ​​the texture layer 11 is less than 60% of the surface area of ​​the body portion 1, the sum of the areas of the protrusions 111 and the recesses 112 is too small, failing to improve the anti-slip performance of the handle; when the area of ​​the texture layer 11 is greater than 90% of the surface area of ​​the body portion 1, the sum of the areas of the protrusions 111 and the recesses 112 is too large, increasing the processing difficulty of the texture layer 11. However, in this embodiment, when the area of ​​the texture layer 11 is 60%-90% of the surface area of ​​the body portion 1, the sum of the areas of the protrusions 111 and the recesses 112 is moderate, improving the anti-slip performance of the handle while ensuring that the processing difficulty of the texture layer 11 is moderate, thus improving the user experience.

[0061] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 3As shown, coating 2 includes a first coating layer 21, a second coating layer 22, and a protective layer 23. The first coating layer 21 is disposed on the body portion 1, the second coating layer 22 is located on the side of the first coating layer 21 away from the body portion 1, and the protective layer 23 is located on the side of the second coating layer 22 away from the first coating layer 21. The second coating layer 22 serves to connect the first coating layer 21 and the protective layer 23.

[0062] The main body 1 is provided with a coating 2 for coloring and sealing, and the coating 2 can be an oil-based paint. A first paint layer 21, a second paint layer 22, and a protective layer 23 are sequentially sprayed onto the main body 1. The first paint layer 21 is used for coloring and can serve as a primer; the protective layer 23 is used for sealing and can serve as a topcoat; the second paint layer 22 is used to connect the first paint layer 21 and the protective layer 23 to improve the stability of the connection between the first paint layer 21 and the protective layer 23 and the adhesion of the coating 2 to the main body 1, and the second paint layer 22 can serve as an intermediate coat.

[0063] When spraying a single-color handle, a first paint layer 21, a second paint layer 22, and a protective layer 23 are sequentially sprayed onto the main body 1. The first paint layer 21 has a corresponding color, and the second paint layer 22 and the protective layer 23 can be transparent layers.

[0064] When spraying the two-color textured handle, the first coating layer 21 and the second coating layer 22 can each have different colors. Then, the first coating layer 21 and the second coating layer 22 are sprayed sequentially on the body part 1. Usually, the color of the first coating layer 21 is darker than the color of the second coating layer 22. After the first coating layer 21 and the second coating layer 22 are sprayed, the second coating layer 22 is polished according to the desired texture to expose the first coating layer 21 located below the second coating layer 22, so that the first coating layer 21 and the second coating layer 22 are displayed alternately. Finally, a protective layer 23 is sprayed for sealing.

[0065] In one possible implementation, the texture can be designed according to wood grain, with the colors of the first coating layer 21 and the second coating layer 22 alternating to form textures such as wood grain and growth rings. The protrusions 111 and recesses 112 of the texture layer 11 can be designed according to wood grain, and the positions of the protrusions 111 and recesses 112 can correspond to different colors to enhance the texture of the handle and reduce the abruptness of the texture layer 11.

[0066] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the thickness of the first coating layer 21 is T1, 6μm≤T1≤15μm. For example, the thickness T1 of the first coating layer 21 can be 6μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 14μm, 15μm, etc.

[0067] When the thickness T1 of the first coating layer 21 is too small, the color of the handle coating 2 is not obvious; when the thickness T1 of the first coating layer 21 is too large, it will increase the manufacturing cost. In this embodiment, when 6μm≤T1≤15μm is satisfied, the thickness T1 of the first coating layer 21 is moderate, which can satisfy the texture effect of the handle while keeping the manufacturing cost low and improving the user experience.

[0068] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the thickness of the second coating layer 22 is T2, 6μm≤T2≤15μm. For example, the thickness T2 of the second coating layer 22 can be 6μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 14μm, 15μm, etc.

[0069] In this embodiment, when the thickness T2 of the second coating layer 22 is too small, the connection between the second coating layer 22 and the first coating layer 21 and the protective layer 23 is poor, and the protective layer 23 is prone to peeling off. When the thickness T2 of the second coating layer 22 is too large, it increases the manufacturing cost, and when manufacturing a two-color textured handle, an excessively thick second coating layer 22 is difficult to polish. However, in this embodiment, when 6μm≤T2≤15μm is satisfied, the thickness T2 of the second coating layer 22 is moderate, which can satisfy the connection effect between the first coating layer 21 and the protective layer 23 while keeping the manufacturing cost low and improving the user experience.

[0070] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the thickness of the protective layer 23 is T3, 6μm≤T3≤15μm. For example, the thickness T3 of the protective layer 23 can be 6μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 14μm, 15μm, etc.

[0071] In this embodiment, when the thickness T3 of the protective layer 23 is too small, the sealing effect of the protective layer 23 is poor, and the coating 2 is easily scratched and corroded. When the thickness T3 of the protective layer 23 is too large, it increases the manufacturing cost, and when the thickness T3 of the protective layer 23 is too thick, the color rendering effect of the first coating layer 21 and / or the second coating layer 22 decreases. However, in this embodiment, when 6μm≤T3≤15μm is satisfied, the thickness T3 of the protective layer 23 is moderate, which can satisfy the color rendering effect of the first coating layer 21 and / or the second coating layer 22 while keeping the manufacturing cost low, which is beneficial to the texture effect of the handle, thereby improving the user experience.

[0072] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the depth of the recess 112 is D, 0.1mm≤D≤0.3mm. For example, the depth D of the recess 112 can be 0.1mm, 0.15mm, 0.2mm, 0.25mm, 0.28mm, 0.3mm, etc.

[0073] In this embodiment, when the depth D of the recess 112 is too small, the surface roughness of the body 1 is low, resulting in poor anti-slip effect of the handle and negatively impacting the texture of the handle. When the depth D of the recess 112 is too large, the surface roughness of the body 1 is excessive, affecting the user's gripping experience during use. However, in this embodiment, when 0.1mm ≤ D ≤ 0.3mm is satisfied, the depth D of the recess 112 is moderate, which can improve the user's gripping experience while satisfying the anti-slip effect of the handle, thereby enhancing the user's overall experience.

[0074] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the width of the recess 112 is W, 0.1mm≤W≤0.5mm. For example, the width W of the recess 112 can be 0.1mm, 0.15mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, etc.

[0075] When the width W of the recess 112 is too small, the anti-slip effect of the handle is poor, and the processing difficulty is increased; when the width W of the recess 112 is too large, the anti-slip effect of the handle is poor, and it affects the user's grip experience during use. In this embodiment, when 0.1mm≤W≤0.5mm is satisfied, the width W of the recess 112 is moderate, which can meet the anti-slip effect of the handle while reducing the processing difficulty, improving the user's grip experience during use, and thus improving the user experience.

[0076] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 4 As shown, the length of the recess 112 is L, 1mm≤L≤30mm. For example, the length L of the recess 112 can be 1mm, 5mm, 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, 15mm, 18mm, 20mm, 22mm, 25mm, 30mm, etc.

[0077] In this embodiment, when the length L of the recessed portion 112 is too small, the anti-slip effect of the handle is poor, and the processing difficulty is increased; when the length L of the recessed portion 112 is too large, the anti-slip effect of the handle is poor, and it affects the user's grip experience during use. However, in this embodiment, when 1mm≤L≤30mm is satisfied, the length L of the recessed portion 112 is moderate, which can satisfy the anti-slip effect of the handle while reducing the processing difficulty, thereby improving the user's grip experience during use and thus improving the user experience.

[0078] In one specific embodiment, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, along the length of the body portion 1, the two opposite ends of the body portion 1 are the first end 12 and the second end 13. Along the direction closer to the second end 13, the cross-sectional area of ​​the body portion 1 gradually decreases or the cross-sectional area of ​​the body portion 1 first decreases and then increases.

[0079] In this embodiment, the first end 12 is close to the cooking appliance for connection, while the second end 13 is away from the cooking appliance. The design of the gradually decreasing or first decreasing and then increasing cross-sectional area of ​​the body part 1 facilitates gripping and handling during use, improving the user experience.

[0080] 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.
