AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing cooking pots with flat or simple curved bottoms cause uneven distribution of oil and fat during stir-frying and deep-frying, leading to burning of central ingredients and greasy edges, requiring manual oil redistribution, which reduces cooking efficiency and experience.

Method used

A pan with a recessed outer edge forming an arcuate surface that collects oil towards the center, combined with an annular groove and a composite pot bottom for even heating and stable support.

Benefits of technology

Ensures even heating and cooking by automatically collecting oil to the center, eliminating manual redistribution, and enhancing cooking efficiency and experience.

Abstract

Provide a pan to collect the oil. [Solution] The pot includes a pot body 1, the outer edge of which is recessed toward the center of the bottom of the pot body, and an arc-shaped surface 11 for collecting oil. When stir-frying or deep-frying ingredients, oil that flows toward the edge of the pot can return to the center of the bottom along the inward-recessed arc-shaped surface, creating a collecting effect. This eliminates the need to frequently manually scrape the oil back to the center, and allows ingredients to heat and brown more evenly.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of pan utensils, and in particular to a pan for collecting oil. [Background technology]

[0002] During cooking, especially in Chinese cooking methods such as stir-frying and deep-frying, uniform distribution of oil and fat is crucial to the texture and color of ingredients. Most common hot pots currently on the market have flat or simple curved bottoms. When stir-frying or deep-frying with these types of hot pots, oil and fat tend to spread outward and accumulate in the edge area where the pot wall and bottom meet due to heat and the influence of the pushing action of ingredients. This results in a lack of oil and fat in the center area of ​​the pot bottom. This not only makes ingredients in the center more likely to burn, while ingredients on the edges are submerged in oil and have a greasy texture, but also requires the cook to frequently manually scrape the oil back into the center area, which is cumbersome and reduces cooking efficiency and the cooking experience. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0003] SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention provides a pan for collecting oil. [Means for solving the problem]

[0004] To solve the above technical problems, the present invention is achieved by the following technical means.

[0005] The oil collecting pan comprises a pan body, the outer edge of the bottom of the pan body being recessed toward the center of the bottom of the pan body, and an arcuate surface for collecting oil is provided.

[0006] In the above device, preferably, an annular groove is provided on the outside of the bottom of the pot body.

[0007] In the above device, preferably, the pot body is formed as a single piece.

[0008] In the above device, preferably, a pot bottom is provided inside the annular strip.

[0009] In the above device, preferably, the pot bottom and the pot body are connected in a composite manner.

[0010] In the above invention, preferably, the amplitude ratio of the arc surface is 1 / 55 to 1 / 50.

[0011] In the above invention, preferably, the amplitude ratio of the arc surface is 2 / 105.

[0012] In the above invention, preferably, the depth of the arc surface is h1, and h1=2 mm.

[0013] In the above invention, preferably, the height of the annular groove is h2, and h2=3.5 mm. [Effects of the Invention]

[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] When stir-frying or deep-frying food, the oil that flows toward the edges of the pan can return to the center of the pan's bottom along the inward-concave arc, creating a collecting effect that eliminates the need to frequently manually scrape the oil back to the center, resulting in more even heating and coloring of food. [Brief explanation of the drawings]

[0016] [Figure 1] 1 is a cross-sectional view of a frying pan according to the present invention; [Figure 2] FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of part A in FIG. [Figure 3] 1 is a cross-sectional view of a frying pan according to the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0017] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.

[0018] 1 to 3, the oil collecting pan has a pan body 1, which is preferably made of a metal material with excellent thermal conductivity such as aluminum alloy, stainless steel, or iron, and is manufactured by a one-piece stretch molding method, thereby ensuring the structural integrity and durability of the pan body 1.

[0019] Furthermore, the outer edge of the bottom of the pot body 1 is recessed and extends toward the center of the bottom of the pot body 1, forming an arc-shaped surface 11. The center of the arc-shaped surface 11 is set lower than the outer edge of the bottom of the pot body 1, so that oil and grease at the edge of the pot body 1 can be naturally returned to the center of the bottom of the pot by gravity and the action of the arc-shaped surface, and will not accumulate at the edge of the pot wall. As a result, the oil is effectively collected during cooking, and ingredients can be evenly soaked in the collected oil and grease, effectively improving the cooking experience when stir-frying or deep-frying, while also saving the amount of cooking oil used.

[0020] At the same time, an integrally molded ring-shaped rib 2 is further provided on the outside of the bottom of the pot body 1. The ring-shaped rib 2 is slightly raised and is arranged to surround the outer periphery of the bottom of the pot body 1, and its function is to form a stable support surface when the pot is placed on a flat surface.

[0021] The inner area defined by the annular strip 2 is provided with a pot bottom for heating. The pot bottom can be in sufficient and stable contact with the heat source, efficiently transferring thermal energy to the pot body 1. The pot bottom can also have a composite connection structure. Specifically, the pot body 1 and the composite bottom piece can be compositely connected under high temperature and pressure using a thermal composite stamping technique known in the art. The composite bottom piece is usually a sandwiched layer structure made of a highly thermally conductive material such as aluminum, which significantly improves the uniformity of heat conduction and thermal efficiency of the entire pot. It should also be noted that after the pot body 1 is installed, its depth does not exceed the height of the annular strip 2.

[0022] Regarding the specific dimensions of the oil collecting structure, the recess depth h1 of the oil collecting arc surface 11 is designed to be 2 mm. This depth ensures the function of effectively guiding and collecting oil and grease without excessively affecting the structural strength of the pot body 1 or the operation of frying or deep-frying ingredients. The height h2 of the ring strip 2 is designed to be 3.5 mm, which provides stable support and ensures the attachment of the pot bottom.

[0023] The above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or some of the technical features can be replaced with equivalents. These modifications or replacements do not deviate from the essence of the corresponding technical solutions and the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
