Description

A cooking utensil Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a cooking utensil (such as a pot), in particular to a cooking utensil. Background Art

[0002] Ordinary cooking utensils are prone to hot oil splashing when frying or deep-frying ingredients. Moreover, if the ingredients such as steak are too thick, not only will the cook have to endure the hot oil splashing, but he or she will also have to press it with a spatula to ensure that it is fully heated, which is a test for the cook.

[0003] To address this issue, a Chinese invention patent application (CN 116322440 A) discloses a multi-purpose cooking utensil with a pressing plate, comprising a cooking container comprising a body, a lid, a handle, and a fixing device. The body forms a cooking space open to the top so that food can be cooked therein. The lid is provided for sealing the cooking space. The handle is provided on one side of the body so that the body can be gripped when picked up. The fixing device is provided for connecting the lid to the body. The pressing plate is elastically supported on the bottom surface of the lid when the lid is placed on the food located on the bottom surface of the cooking space of the body, so as to gently press the food by means of the elastic force.

[0004] This technical solution uses a combination of a pressing plate and a lid to prevent hot oil from splashing. At the same time, the cooking ingredients are pressed by the elastic member on the pressing plate and the lid to fully heat them. However, this technical solution works better for ingredients with thicker thicknesses, but is not effective if the ingredients are not thick, and cannot adapt to foods of various thicknesses. Moreover, relying solely on the elastic member on the pressing plate, it is impossible to control the pressing force on the ingredients according to cooking requirements. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a cooking utensil that mainly solves the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art. The product can adapt to the thickness of various cooking ingredients and can well control the pressing force on the cooking ingredients according to cooking needs.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object of the invention, the technical solution of the present invention is:

[0007] A cooking utensil comprises a pot body, a handle and a cover body that can cover the mouth of the pot body. The handle is arranged on one side of the pot body; a cover pressure plate that can cover the cooked food in the pot body is provided, and a lifting pressure rod is provided on the cover body that can press the cover pressure plate when it is lowered.

[0008] The lifting and lowering pressure rod includes a rotating operating part and a rotating rod connected to the rotating operating part, and an external thread is set on the rotating rod; the cover body is provided with a through hole, a hollow connecting piece is set in the through hole, and the connecting piece is provided with an internal thread, and the rotating rod is screwed into the internal thread of the connecting piece through its external thread.

[0009] A rotary rod receiving portion is provided at a position corresponding to the cover pressure plate and the through hole.

[0010] The rotating rod receiving portion is an elastic component.

[0011] The rotating operating part is a crank handle arranged vertically with the rotating rod.

[0012] Two annular pot ears are correspondingly arranged on both sides of the upper edge of the pot body, and two protruding clamping feet that can be clamped into the two pot ears are correspondingly arranged on both sides of the cover body.

[0013] By virtue of the above technical features, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0014] 1. The lifting and pressing rod on the cover of the cooking utensil of the present invention can adapt to cooking ingredients of different thicknesses. 2. The lifting and pressing rod on the cover of the cooking utensil of the present invention can adjust the pressing force of the cover pressure plate on the ingredients according to needs. 3. The threaded connection between the rotary rod of the lifting and pressing rod on the cover of the cooking utensil of the present invention and the connecting piece can more finely adjust the pressing force of the cover pressure plate on the ingredients. 4. The design of the pot ears and the cover feet of the cooking utensil of the present invention ensures that when the lifting and pressing rod is used, the cover body is kept firmly covered on the pot body, ensuring that the cover body will not be broken open by the reaction force, and is very convenient for taking and putting the cover body.

[0019] The present invention is described in detail below through examples. It should be pointed out that the following examples are only for further illustration of the present invention and cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. Some non-essential improvements and adjustments made by professionals in this field based on the contents of the present invention still fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0020] A cooking utensil, as shown in Figures 1 and 2, includes a pot body 1, a handle 2 and a cover body 3 that can cover the mouth of the pot body 1, and the handle 2 is arranged on one side of the pot body 1; as shown in Figure 2, a cover pressure plate 5 is also provided that can cover the food cooked in the pot body 1. The cover pressure plate 5 is not always placed in the pot body 1, but is placed in the pot body 1 when cooking is needed. A lifting pressure rod 4 is provided on the cover body 3 to squeeze the cover pressure plate when it is lowered.

[0021] As shown in FIG. 2 , the lifting and lowering pressure rod 4 includes a rotation operating portion and a rotary rod 42 connected to the rotation operating portion. Preferably, the rotation operating portion is a crank handle 41 arranged perpendicular to the rotary rod 42 .

[0022] Furthermore, an external thread is provided on the rotary rod 42; as shown in Figure 3, a through hole 31 is provided on the cover body 3, a hollow connecting piece 6 is provided in the through hole 31, and the connecting piece 6 is provided with an internal thread. The rotary rod 42 is screwed into the internal thread of the connecting piece 6 through its external thread, and the lifting and lowering pressure rod 4 can spirally rise or spirally descend on the cover body 3, so that the pressure on the cover pressure plate 5 can be adjusted more finely.

[0023] As shown in Figure 4, the cover plate 5 is provided with a rotary rod receiving portion 51 at a position corresponding to the through hole 31. When the lifting and pressing rod 4 is lowered, the bottom of the rotary rod 42 presses against the rotary rod receiving portion 51, thereby transmitting pressure downward.

[0024] Preferably, the rotary rod receiving portion 51 is an elastic component, so that a buffer can be provided when the lifting and lowering pressure rod 4 is lowered too much. The elastic component can be made of silicone material.

[0025] As shown in FIG1 , two annular pot ears 11 are correspondingly provided on both sides of the upper edge of the pot body 1 , and two protruding clamping feet 32 ​​that can be clamped into the two pot ears 11 are correspondingly provided on both sides of the cover body 3 .

[0026] When frying or deep-frying food, the cover plate 5 is placed inside the pot body 1 to cover the food, and then the cover body 3 is closed, and the clamping feet 32 ​​are locked into the pot ears 11. In this way, the cover body 3 is fixed to the mouth of the pot body 1. The crank 41 is turned to lower the rotary rod 42, and the rotary rod receiving portion 51 is pressed on the cover plate 5 to press down. Since the clamping feet 32 ​​are locked into the pot ears 11, the cover body 3 will not be broken open by the reaction force. By operating the crank 41 to gradually transmit pressure to the cover plate 5 from the rotary rod 42, the distance the lifting and lowering pressure rod 4 is lowered can be adjusted according to the thickness of the food.
