It relates to a pot holder that performs a physical intervention. State of the Art: In current technology, perforated holes are used to prevent liquid spills from occurring in pots. lids, silicone overflow prevention elements and passive 15 designed to increase steam output Structures are used. In addition, some cooking appliances have temperature control. Although systems exist, these systems are generally based solely on temperature data. and active intervention directly aimed at preventing flooding. It does not include a mechanism. In addition, current solutions address foam formation, vapor density, and liquid surface movements. Different physical parameters affecting flooding, such as those mentioned above, cannot be evaluated together. It is not possible to predict the risk before it occurs, and user intervention is not required. This situation leads to energy loss, contamination of the stove surface, and safety concerns. It causes various negative consequences, such as problems. Therefore, the risk of flooding is determined based on multiple physical parameters, and the word 25 an improved pot that automatically intervenes physically based on the risk involved The necessary equipment is required. The purpose of the invention is to predict potential liquid spills during cooking. The goal is to develop a pot holder that reduces the risk of overflow. Another objective of the invention is to combine temperature, foam / level and vapor density data in 30 By evaluating the risk of overflow, controlled steam release, pressure reduction, and foaming are implemented. This involves implementing phased interventions such as distribution and user alerts.

It relates to a pot holder that performs controlled physical intervention based on the level of risk. Thanks to this invention, the intense steam, increased foaming, and rising liquid that occur inside the pot are prevented. By controlling the flow, overflow is reduced, cooking safety is increased, and This prevents the stove surface from getting dirty. 10 The invention consists of an apparatus which can be placed in the top opening of a pot body (1). It includes the lid / accessory body (2). The lid / accessory body (2) is part of the pot body (1) With a circumferential seating area that fits over the mouth, the vapor is released into the outside environment in a controlled manner. It includes steam redirection channels (3) that enable the transfer of steam. channels (3) are placed circumferentially, radially or linearly on the apparatus body (2) 15 This allows the intense steam inside the pot to be released in a controlled manner. This allows the water to be transferred, thus reducing sudden pressure increases inside the pot. And the accumulation of intense vapor that could lead to flooding is limited. The lid / fitting body (2) is designed to be compatible with pots of different diameters and types. It contains at least one fastening element (16). The fastening element (16) is an elastic coupling 20 ring, magnetic retainer, circumferential seal structure or adjustable clamping element It can be formed in this way.

Physical changes related to the cooking process on or inside the apparatus body (2) at least one heat sensor (5), at least one foam / level sensor (6) and at least one 25 for monitoring purposes The vapor density sensor (7) is positioned. The heat sensor (5) detects the increase in liquid temperature. The foam / level sensor (6) detects the rise in the liquid surface and the foam The steam density sensor (7) determines the formation of steam inside the pot. It is positioned to monitor vapor density. Data from the sensors is received by the microcontroller unit (8) and data 30 It is evaluated through the processing module (9). Overflow risk assessment module (13) determines the flood risk level based on the data obtained from the sensors and It activates the phased intervention system (14). The phased intervention system (14) includes different physical systems depending on the determined flood risk level. It is structured to carry out interventions. At a low risk level, steam 35 Controlled steam release is provided through the redirection channels (3). Thus 4 By reducing the steam density inside the pot, the rise in liquid level is kept under control. 5 It is ensured that it is kept in place. At medium risk level, the mechanical lid opening mechanism (15) is activated. The mechanical lid opening mechanism (15) must cover at least one part of the lid / apparatus body (2). It moves in such a way as to create a specific opening. Mechanical lid opening. mechanism (15); spring lifting element, mini motor, electromechanical pusher, linear 10 It can be designed as a moving element or a hinged, movable cover section. Thanks to the controlled opening created, the pressure inside the pot is reduced and the liquid... The tendency to overflow is reduced. High risk level foam breaker surface structure (17), micro vibration modulus (18), mechanical lid opening mechanism (15) and user interface (11) together or in sequence 15 It is operated in this way. The foam breaker surface structure (17) is inside the apparatus body (2). protruding, channeled, rough surfaces located on or near the surface of the liquid or can be made of a grid structure. Foam breaker surface structure (17), liquid by making contact with the foam layer on its surface, it contributes to reducing the foam volume. It provides. 20 The micro-vibration module (18) is connected to the foam breaker surface structure (17) or apparatus. It can be positioned to create vibration on its body (2). Micro The vibration modulus (18) causes the foam layer to disintegrate by creating low amplitude vibration. This contributes to reducing foam-induced overflow. The pressure relief valve (4) is activated on the apparatus body (2) in case of sudden pressure increases. It is positioned to enter. The pressure relief valve (4) relieves the dense matter inside the pot. by allowing the steam to be released to the outside environment in a controlled manner, thus increasing the pressure. It reduces. The power supply unit (10) is used to power the sensors, the microcontroller unit (8), and the step-by-step intervention system (14), micro-vibration module (18), mechanical lid opening 30 energy required for the operation of the mechanism (15) and the user interface (11) It provides. The power supply unit (10) is a battery, rechargeable battery or external power supply. It can be created in the form of a link. User interface (11), visual and / or audible warning depending on the risk of overflow It is structured to provide the following: User interface (11), LED indicator, screen, audio 35 It may include a warning element or a vibrating warning structure. Preferably wireless communication. Overflow risk information can be transmitted to an external device via module (12). The safety control circuit (20) detects 5 issues such as overtemperature, overpressure or sensor failure. In certain situations, the system is configured to enter safe operating mode. Safe In operating mode, the pressure relief valve (4) can be opened and the user Warnings can be given via the interface (11). Preferably, the timer unit (19) included in the system, the operation of the intervention elements They monitor the time periods. Thus, in cases where the risk of flooding continues, intervention is possible. The duration can be extended, and additional warnings can be given to the user. Thanks to this structure, the invention can be used to control physical parameters such as temperature, foam / level, and vapor density. Controlled vapor release depending on changes, mechanical lid opening, foam gradual physical interventions such as reduction and vibration application It provides an active pot attachment that performs this function. Thus, the pressure inside the pot is increased to 15. The increase is reduced, the foam volume is decreased, the tendency for liquid overflow is limited, and A safer cooking process is achieved.
