Background Art

[0002] Microwave ovens have been popular for many years, and many consumers routinely heat food in a microwave oven and cook using the heated ingredients. Due to the special heating principle of microwave ovens, when cooking food in a microwave oven, uneven heating tends to occur depending on the food or ingredients, and there is also a problem that the food is heated from the inside out, damaging the original taste and texture of the food or ingredients.

[0003] Currently, frying pans for microwave ovens dedicated to microwave ovens are commercially available. Generally, a frying pan for a microwave oven includes a metal lid and a pot body. Since the outer surface of the pot body is covered with a microwave absorption layer for absorbing electromagnetic waves from the microwave oven and converting them into heat, destruction of the nutrients of the food due to the direct action of microwaves on the food is avoided.

[0004] However, in a conventional frying pan for a microwave oven, the metal edges of the lid and the pot body are not partitioned by an insulating member, and there is no ring-shaped edge handle that is integrally formed. Therefore, the heat insulation and anti-scalding effects are relatively poor, and there is also a possibility of a fire occurrence.

[0027] Referring to the specific embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the present invention discloses a frying pan for a microwave oven, which includes a metal pot lid 10 and a pot body 20. On the outer bottom surface of the pot body 20, a microwave absorption pad 30 for absorbing electromagnetic waves from the microwave oven and converting them into heat is provided. A burring 21 is provided at the opening of the pot body 20, and several T-grooves 22 are provided in the burring 21. A silicon member 40 is connected to the burring 21. The silicon member 40 and the burring 21 are integrally formed so that the silicon member 40 cannot be separated from the burring 21 after molding, and the T-groove 22 is filled. The pot lid 10 is provided with a handle 11 and a through hole corresponding to the handle 11. At one end of the handle 11, a mounting portion 111 that fits into the through hole is provided. The mounting portion 111 is inserted into the pot lid 10 through the through hole. A positioning end 112 for mounting positioning is provided on the mounting portion 111. The positioning end 112 forms a reverse drawing structure with the inner surface of the pot lid 10 through the through hole.

[0028] Specifically, a burring 21 is provided at the opening of the pot body 20, and several T-grooves 22 are provided on the burring 21. After the silicon member 40 is formed, the silicon member 40 and the burring 21 are integrally formed so that they cannot be separated, and the T-grooves 22 are filled. The edge structure of the burring 21 with the silicon member 40 as the pot body 20 has the functions of heat insulation and anti-scalding, and the connection with the metal pot body 20 is strong. Therefore, the service life of the product is extended, the grade of the product is improved, it also plays a role in partitioning the pot lid 10 and the pot body 20, avoiding the ignition phenomenon, and improving the user experience. In addition, after the positioning end 112 is forced through the through hole and then elastically restored to abut against the inner surface of the pot lid 10, that is, by forming a reverse pulling effect, the handle 11 and the pot lid 10 are fixed and attached in a engaging manner so that the handle 11 does not come off from the pot lid 10. Therefore, the conventional process steps that required screw connection are simplified. As a result, the production process is carried out more quickly, time is saved, the production efficiency is effectively improved, and the aesthetics is also improved.

[0029] In one embodiment, the number of the through holes and the positioning ends 112 is two each.

[0030] Specifically, the handle 11, the mounting portion 111, and the positioning end 112 are integrally formed and made of silicon, which means that they are not assembled after being manufactured separately, but are produced as a whole during manufacturing. With such a design, the structural strength and stability of the product are improved. Also, since silicon is used as the material, it can provide good heat insulation performance and a soft touch, making the operation more comfortable for the user and reducing the risk of burns. In addition, the two positioning ends 112 can more accurately determine the position of the handle 11 on the lid 10 of the pot, ensuring that the handle 11 does not shift or distort during installation. Moreover, by connecting the two mounting portions 111 to the lid 10 through two through holes, the connection firmness is increased, making it difficult for the handle 11 to loosen or come off during use. Further, since the handle 11, the mounting portion 111, and the positioning end 112 are integrally formed and a material such as silicon that is easy to process and deform is used, the handle 11 can be more easily attached to the lid 10, allowing the user to complete the attachment without the need for complex tools or steps, thus enhancing the convenience of use.

[0031] In one embodiment, the silicon member 40 is further provided with a vertical skirt 41 protruding upward, and the lid 10 is capped inside the vertical skirt 41.

[0032] Specifically, by designing the silicon member 40 such that the vertical skirt 41 protrudes upward, when the pot lid 10 is capped, it fits snugly inside the vertical skirt 41. With such a design, the gap between the pot lid 10 and the pot body 20 is effectively reduced, enhancing the sealing performance during cooking. The improvement in sealing performance helps prevent leakage of steam, aroma, and heat, thereby improving the cooking effect. Also, due to the improved sealing performance, the steam, aroma, and heat inside the pot during cooking remain better inside the pot, forming a relatively closed high-temperature and high-pressure environment. Such an environment helps the food cook quickly while maintaining its original flavor, enhancing the cooking effect and the quality of the food. Moreover, the improved sealing performance means that the user can enjoy a better cooking experience during cooking. From the perspective of the texture, aroma, and cooking efficiency of the food, the improvement in sealing performance not only has a positive impact on the user but also reduces the leakage of steam, aroma, and heat, thus maintaining the cleanliness and comfort of the environment for the user during cooking.

[0033] In one embodiment, on opposite relative sides of the silicon member 40, handles 42 that are easy to hold by hand are respectively formed.

[0034] Specifically, handles 42 are formed on both relative sides of the silicon member 40. With such a design, it becomes easier for the user to hold the frying pan when taking it out of the microwave oven. The shape and position of the handle 42 are carefully designed to conform to the principles of ergonomics, making it more comfortable and firm to hold, and reducing the risk of accidental dropping due to unstable holding methods. Also, the handle 42 is made of heat-insulating silicon material, and such a material has excellent heat-insulating performance. After the frying pan is heated in the microwave oven, its surface temperature rises rapidly. However, the heat-insulating silicon handle 42 effectively blocks the high temperature, reducing the risk of heat being transmitted to the user's hand. In this way, there is no worry of scalding at high temperatures when the user takes out the frying pan, and the safety of use is enhanced. Also, the design of the heat-insulating silicon handle 42 not only enhances the safety of use but also improves the overall user experience. That is, the user can operate the frying pan with more confidence during cooking, without worry of scalding, thereby concentrating on the cooking itself and enjoying the pleasure brought by cooking. Also, with the addition of the handle 42, this frying pan for the microwave oven becomes more perfect in terms of function and has stronger practicality. This is not just a simple cooking tool but an all-round cooking solution considering the user's operation convenience and safety. With such a design, the product better meets the market needs and user expectations, enhancing the competitiveness of the product.

[0035] In one embodiment, several horizontal stripe-shaped protrusions 23 are provided on the inner bottom surface of the pot body 20, and a concave groove 24 is formed in the region of the outer bottom surface of the pot body 20 corresponding to the protrusions 23.

[0036] Specifically, several horizontal stripe-shaped protrusions 23 are provided on the inner bottom surface of the pot body 20, and these protrusions 23 form one by one minute "barriers" or "inductive paths" during cooking. When the food is placed on the protrusions 23, the oil and moisture below it flow along the edges of the protrusions 23 under the action of gravity and fluidity, thus forming a better separation from the surface of the food. Such separation reduces the direct absorption of the food by the grease, helps to make the cooked food healthier, and at the same time helps the food to have uniform heat and improve the texture. Also, the separation of the food from the oil and moisture makes the evaporation of the grease and the release of the moisture from the food during cooking smoother. This helps to reduce the cooking time and improve the cooking efficiency. At the same time, the separated oil and moisture can also be easily collected and processed, reducing the labor of the cleaning work after cooking. In addition, due to the design of the protrusions 23, a certain gap and ventilation are maintained for the food during cooking, which helps the food to have uniform heat and form a beautiful char on the surface. At the same time, due to the separation of the oil and moisture, the surface of the food will not become too greasy or too moist, so the original taste and texture of the food are retained.

[0037] In one embodiment, the microwave absorption pad 30 is provided with a protrusion 31 corresponding to the concave groove 24.

[0038] Specifically, by providing the microwave absorption pad 30 with a protrusion 31 corresponding to the concave groove 24, it is ensured that the microwave absorption pad 30 is in close contact with the pot body 20. Such close contact not only enhances the stability of the microwave absorption pad 30 but also helps reduce microwave leakage or energy loss due to poor contact. Also, due to the design of the protrusion 31, the contact area between the microwave absorption pad 30 and the pot body 20 increases, that is, the radio wave absorption area increases. In a microwave oven, the size of the radio wave absorption area directly affects the efficiency of energy conversion. A larger radio wave absorption area means that more microwave energy is captured by the microwave absorption pad 30 and converted into thermal energy, thereby improving the effect of energy conversion. Also, due to the increase in the radio wave absorption area and the improvement in the degree of adhesion, the microwave absorption pad 30 can more effectively absorb electromagnetic waves from the microwave oven and convert them into heat. Such an optimized energy conversion effect not only enhances the cooking efficiency and speed but also helps achieve a more uniform and sufficient heating effect. Also, due to the optimized design of the microwave absorption pad 30, the food reaches the required temperature during cooking more quickly, and at the same time, a relatively high heat transfer efficiency is maintained. This helps to equalize the heat inside and outside the food, avoid differences in texture due to uneven heating, and also, more efficient energy conversion means less energy consumption, which is in line with the concept of energy conservation and environmental protection.

[0039] In one embodiment, the protrusion 23 is an arc surface.

[0040] Specifically, through the design of the protrusions 23 on the arc surface, microwave energy can be intensively guided by the food, which helps reduce the dissipation of energy. Compared with a flat surface, the arc surface can reflect microwave energy more effectively, focus it, and make the heat of the food more uniform. Such a design is applicable to foods that need to be heated quickly and uniformly, such as cakes, bread, or when grilling meat. Additionally, the protrusions 23 on the arc surface further promote the separation of food from oil and moisture during cooking. When the food is placed on the protrusions 23 of the arc surface, the oil and moisture below it flow along the edges of the protrusions 23, forming a better separation from the surface of the food. Such separation helps reduce the direct absorption of oil by the food, making the cooked food healthier, and at the same time, it also helps the food have uniform heat and improve the texture. Moreover, the design of the arc surface takes into account the convenience of cleaning. Since there is a certain angle and gap between the protrusion 23 part and the flat bottom part, food residues and oil stains are less likely to accumulate at the bottom of the pot, thereby reducing the difficulty of cleaning. Such a design helps maintain the hygiene of the cooking utensil and extend its service life. Furthermore, the protrusions 23 on the arc surface can further form micro air flow channels during cooking, which helps the food have uniform heat and form a beautiful char on the surface. Through such an improvement in cooking effect, better effects can be achieved in terms of the texture and appearance of the food.

[0041] In one embodiment, at least a plurality of support legs 32 for supporting the pot body are provided on the outer bottom surface of the microwave absorption pad 30.

[0042] Specifically, the number of the support legs 32 is four and they are evenly distributed on the microwave absorption pad 30. The support legs 32 separate the support surfaces of the frying pan and the microwave oven to form a gap. This gap reduces the direct contact area between the microwave absorption pad 30 and the metal wall of the microwave oven, thereby reducing the energy lost in the heat conduction mode. Also, since the heat conduction path is reduced, the energy inside the microwave oven can be more intensively used for heating food instead of being dissipated to the external environment by the microwave oven wall. Further, the design of the support legs 32 reduces the friction and wear between the microwave absorption pad 30 and the support surface of the microwave oven, which helps to protect the bottom of the microwave oven from damage.

[0043] In one embodiment, a curl 12 bent so as to fold back from the outer side direction toward the center of the pot lid 10 is provided at the opening edge of the pot lid 10.

[0044] Specifically, due to the design of the curl 12 bent so as to fold back from the outer side direction toward the center of the pot lid 10, the pot lid 10 can be closely attached to the edge of the pot body 20 during capping. Such close attachment reduces the gap between the pot lid 10 and the pot body 20, thereby enhancing the sealing performance during cooking. The improvement of the sealing performance helps to prevent the leakage of steam, fragrance and heat, which can improve the cooking effect and keep the environment clean at the same time. Also, the design of the curl 12 can further enhance the structural strength of the pot lid 10 and improve its durability. During the frequent opening and closing process, the curl 12 provides additional support and stability, and by reducing the wear and deformation of the edge of the pot lid 10, the service life of the pot lid 10 can be extended.

[0045] In one embodiment, an exhaust hole 13 is further provided in the pot lid 10.

[0046] Specifically, during cooking, a relatively high pressure accumulates inside the pot body 20. If such pressure is not released in a timely manner, it may cause the lid 10 of the pot to explode or the pot body 20 to be damaged, posing a safety concern for the user. The design of the exhaust hole 13 allows the pressure inside the pot to be released as needed, thereby reducing such risks and providing safety protection for the user. In addition, excessively high internal pressure may damage the entire set of the pot. For example, by helping to prevent deformation of the lid 10 or deterioration of the gasket, the design of the exhaust hole 13 extends the service life of the entire set of the pot.

[0047] Specifically, it is preferable that the microwave absorption pad 30 is adhered to the outer bottom surface of the pot body 20 with a high-temperature resistant adhesive. The heat-resistant temperature of the adhesive is 200 - 300 °C. When the pot body 20 and the microwave absorption pad 30 are not synchronized in terms of thermal expansion and contraction, it is convenient for reducing the loosening of the microwave absorption pad 30 after multiple uses. The microwave absorption pad 30 is a composite of silicon rubber and metal powder. The weight ratio of the metal powder in the material of the microwave absorption pad 30 is 30% - 50%. The metal powder may be a mixture of one or more of copper powder, iron powder, and aluminum powder. The silicon rubber can absorb a large amount of microwaves and generate self-heat. Heat can be quickly transmitted to the bottom of the pot body 20 through the metal powder. The microwave absorption pad 30 is used to absorb microwave energy, and the heat accumulates at the bottom of the pot body 20 to realize heating of the food in the pot body 20.

[0048] The above embodiments are preferred implementation cases of the present invention. In addition, the present invention can also be realized in other ways, and any obvious replacement that does not deviate from the concept of the present technical solution is included within the protection scope of the present invention.
