Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of kitchenware, and more particularly to an oval pot that can be used on both induction cooktops and microwave ovens. [Background technology]

[0002] Since induction cookers and microwave ovens use different heating principles, the pots they use are also different. Stainless steel pots have excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance, and can transmit heat evenly under an electromagnetic field, saving cooking time and energy. They have a smooth surface, are easy to clean, do not produce peculiar odors, and are free of coatings on the inner and outer walls, making them healthy and safe. Heat-resistant ceramic rice cookers and plates are suitable for long-term use in microwave ovens, while ordinary ceramic plates are suitable for short-term heating. Ceramic plates with gold or silver wire cannot be placed in microwave ovens, otherwise sparks will occur.

[0003] With the development of the times and the progress of society, induction cookers and microwave ovens have gradually become common cooking appliances in homes. However, because induction cookers and microwave ovens require the use of different pots, households need to have many pots during use. Many pots mean that a lot of storage space is required, which reduces storage efficiency and usage efficiency. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0016] Hereinafter, the technical means in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments, and all other embodiments that can be obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without any creative work fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0017] As shown in Figures 3 to 5, in one embodiment of the present invention, an oval pot that can be used on both an induction cooker and a microwave oven includes a pot body 1, a pot lid 3 is provided on the top of the pot body 1, a locking groove 9 is formed on the top of the pot lid 3, a wedge-shaped block 11 is engaged and connected to the inner wall of the locking groove 9, a lid handle 4 is fixedly connected to the top of the wedge-shaped block 11, a handle 5 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pot body 1, a plurality of mounting grooves 14 are formed on the inner wall of the handle 5, a plurality of buckles 15 are engaged and connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 14, a silicone edging 6 is provided on the outer wall of the buckle 15, and an auxiliary mechanism 2 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pot lid 3, which is used to improve the usability of the pot.

[0018] Specifically, the inner wall of the locking groove 9 is smooth and has a certain elasticity, ensuring a tight and stable engagement with the wedge-shaped block 11, preventing loosening, and allowing for easy removal when necessary. The surface of the lid handle 4 is non-slip, increasing the friction between the hand and the lid handle 4, making it easier for the user to remove the lid 3. The pot body 1 is made of metal, with a coating on the surface and a heat-conductive silicone on the bottom. The combination of special metal and silicone materials allows it to sense the magnetic field generated by an induction cooker and generate high temperatures, and also absorb the microwaves generated by a microwave oven and generate high temperatures, making it suitable for use on both microwave ovens and induction cookers. The raised design of the pot lid 3 facilitates large-capacity steaming of large amounts of food, solving the problem of large capacity steamers. When a whole chicken or duck is placed in the pot to steam, the flavor is easily sealed in.

[0019] As shown in Figures 4 to 6, the auxiliary mechanism 2 includes a waterproof coating 201, which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pot lid 3, a heat-sensitive coating 204 which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the pot body 1, a thawing coating 205 which is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the pot body 1, a non-stick coating 203 which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the thawing coating 205, and an antibacterial coating 202 which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the non-stick coating 203.

[0020] Specifically, after cooking is completed, the color of the heat-sensitive coating 204 gradually returns to its original color as the temperature of the pot body 1 decreases. Based on the degree of color recovery, the user can determine whether the pot body 1 has cooled down and prevent burns from coming into contact with the pot body 1 when the temperature is high, providing a strong guarantee for safety in use. The thawing coating 205 has a special interaction with the microwaves generated by the microwave oven, allowing the microwaves to be distributed more evenly inside the pot body 1. The non-stick coating 203 can significantly reduce the contact area between the food and the inner wall of the pot body 1, thereby reducing the adhesion between the food and the pot body 1.

[0021] As shown in Figures 1 to 3, multiple support legs 8 are fixedly connected to the bottom of pot body 1 near its edges, and a heat-conductive silicone ring 10 is fixedly connected to the center of the bottom of pot body 1.

[0022] Specifically, each of the support legs 8 supports part of the weight of the pot body 1 and the ingredients inside it, and by defining a plane at three points, the pot body 1 stands firmly on that plane, preventing it from shaking or tipping over, and the heat-conductive silicone ring 10 heats up two to three times faster than a normal pot when heated on an induction cooker.

[0023] As shown in Figures 2 to 4, a brand plate 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the silicone edging 6, a seal ring 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer wall of the pot lid 3, and multiple exhaust holes 7 are formed near the edge of the top of the pot body 1.

[0024] Specifically, when the pot lid 3 is placed on the pot body 1, the sealing ring 13 is pressed and elastically deformed, filling the gap between the pot lid 3 and the pot body 1. During the cooking process, steam is constantly generated inside the pot and rises. When the steam comes into contact with the pot lid 3, it flows along the inner wall of the pot lid 3 to the edge, and is finally discharged outside the pot through the exhaust hole 7.

[0025] In terms of operation, when the oval pot needs to be removed for transportation, first press the pot lid 3 and pull the lid handle 4 outward, thereby pressing the wedge-shaped block 11 and the locking groove 9 against each other and pulling them outward. Next, use a tool to rotate the buckle 15 to remove it from the mounting groove 14. Then pull the silicone edging 6 outward and remove it from the outer wall of the handle 5, thereby removing the oval pot. When in use, the combination of the heat-conductive silicone ring 10 and the pot body 1 allows it to sense the magnetic field generated by an induction cooker and generate high temperatures, and it can also absorb the microwaves generated by a microwave oven and generate high temperatures, making it suitable for cooking on both an induction cooker and a microwave oven. The quick removal design makes it easy to clean thoroughly to prevent bacterial growth and convenient to carry when camping. It reduces the need to purchase extra pots, reducing costs in terms of pot selection among household cookware and providing an absolute advantage in terms of space, improving practicality and efficiency.

[0026] The waterproof coating 201 prevents water droplets from getting on the pot lid 3 and, in combination with the exhaust holes 7 formed on the pot lid 3, can effectively release water vapor. The antibacterial coating 202 gives the pot body 1 an antibacterial function and, in combination with the non-stick coating 203, gives the pot body 1 a non-stick function. The heat-sensitive coating 204 changes color as the temperature rises during the heating process, allowing the degree of cooking of the ingredients to be determined by visually observing the temperature of the pot body 1. Conversely, after heating is completed, the heat-sensitive coating changes color as the temperature drops, allowing visual observation of whether the pot body 1 has cooled, thereby avoiding unnecessary burns.

[0027] It should be noted that the above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art may still modify the technical means described in the above embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features thereof. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall all be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
