Description

FIELD OF INVENTION

The present utility model relates to the field of catering tools, in particular to a liftable double pot.

BACKGROUND

For people enjoying hot pot, it is difficult to pick up the food at the bottom of the pot. 10 Moreover, long-time heating of food may impair its taste and cause it to stick to the pot.

In addition, food is invisible in ordinary hot pots, which is extremely inconvenient and may frequently cause food waste; moreover, people often use spoons or chopsticks to pick and choose the food they need in the pot, which may bring about hygienic problems.

DESCRIPTION OF UTILITY MODEL

To solve the above-noted problems, the present utility model offers a liftable double pot that is non-stick, hygienic and less wasteful of food.

The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

A liftable double pot, including an outer pot and an inner pot that is movably mounted inside the said outer pot; the bottom of the said inner pot is provided with at least one through hole for drainage; the outer circumferential wall or inner circumferential wall of the said outer pot is furnished with a rotary lifting gear for driving the inner pot up and down; the said rotary lifting gear is connected with a handle for controlling its upward 25 and downward movement.

The said rotary lifting gear includes a rail housing fixedly attached to the outer circumferential wall or inner circumferential wall of the said outer pot; the said rail housing is equipped with a turn plate that rotates in the housing; the said turn plate is connected with the said handle; the movable connection of the said turn plate is provided with a 30 slider that slides up and down in the said rail housing; the upper edge of the said slider is pressed against the said inner pot; the said slider is provided with a slideway; the said turn plate is designed with a pin that works with slideway.

A rail groove is arranged on both sides in the said rail housing, respectively; the said slider is movably mounted in the said rail groove; the said rail housing is designed with a chamber that suits the shape of the said turn plate; the said turn plate is movably installed in the said chamber and rotates relative thereto.

The bottom of the said outer pot is like a mesh screen in structure.

A rotary lifting gear is arranged on both side walls against the outer circumferential wall or inner circumferential wall, respectively.

The said handle is U-shaped and both of its ends are connected with the two rotary lifting gears, respectively.

The beneficial effect of the present utility model: The inner pot of a liftable double pot of the present utility model is connected to the outer pot through the rotary lifting gear, and enables the upward and downward movement of inner pot through a simple structure so that the inner pot can be moved up and down at any time as needed to prevent the poor taste of food resulting from excessively long or short heating time; this design avoids the sticking of food on pot, ensures food hygiene, and effectively prevents the waste of food.

DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

The present utility model is further demonstrated below based on the attached drawings and embodiments.

Fig. 1 is the structural diagram of the utility model when the inner pot is not raised;

Fig. 2 is the structural diagram of the utility model when the inner pot is raised;

Fig. 3 is the structural diagram of the rotary lifting gear of the present utility model.

EMBODIMENTS IN DETAIL

Refer to Figs. 1 and 2; Fig. 1 is the structural diagram of an embodiment of the utility model when the inner pot is not raised, while Fig. 2 is the structural diagram of the 25 embodiment when the inner pot is raised. As shown in the figure, the liftable double pot includes an outer pot 1 and an inner pot 2 that is movably arranged inside outer pot 1; the bottom of inner pot 2 is provided with at least one through hole for drainage, preferably with a mesh screen structure. The two opposite ends of the outer circumferential wall of outer pot 1 are also provided with two rotary lifting gears 3 for 30 driving inner pot 2 up and down; rotary lifting gear 3 is connected with a handle 4 for controlling the upward and downward its movement; handle 4 is U-shaped, and its outer

2019101115 26 Sep 2019 surface is curved to effectively prevent residues of liquid or stains; additionally, handle 4 can also be used to lift and move the double pot, and both ends of handle 4 are connected respectively to the two rotary lifting gears 3.

As shown in Fig. 3, rotary lifting gear 3 includes a rail housing 5 fixedly attached to the outer circumferential wall of outer pot 1; two edges of rail housing 5 are fastened via bolts to the outer wall of outer pot 1; inside rail housing 5 is a turn plate 6 that rotates therein; rail housing 5 is designed with a chamber that suits the shape of the said turn plate 6; turn plate 6 can rotate relative to outer pot 1 without a pivot; turn plate 6 is movably installed in the chamber and rotates relative thereto; turn plate 6 is connected 10 with handle 4 and movably connected with a slider 7; inside rail housing 5 has two rail grooves on both sides, and slider 7 slides up and down along the grooves; slider 7 is designed with a lateral slideway 8; turn plate 6 is provided with a pin 9 that slides in the said slideway 8, of which the length shall be greater than the travel of pin 9, which is the distance between the rotating center of turn plate 6 and the center of pin 9; the outer 15 circumferential wall of the said inner pot 2 is furnished with an flanging, of which the inner surface accommodates the upper edge of the said slider 7; therefore, the connection between inner pot 2 and slider 7 is removeable so that inner pot 2 can be separated from the double pot as needed. The above-noted rotary lifting gear 3 employs a simple structure to enable the double pot to be lifted up and down; such structure is easy to 20 produce and process with minimal waste of raw materials.

When inner pot 2 needs to be raised, handle 4 should be turned to drive the turn plate 6 to rotate in rail housing 5, while pin 9 on turn plate 6 slides in the rail groove to drive slider 7 to move up; when handle 4 is turned from one end to the other, slider 7 slides along the bottom to the top of rail groove, when inner pot 2 reaches its upper limit, where the liquid flows from inner pot 2 into outer pot 1 via the mesh screen structure so that all the food in inner pot 2 is visible in front of the user who is allowed to choose exactly what he/she wants; to lower inner pot 2, handle 4 should be turned from one end to the other end, while pin 9 slides in rail groove and drives slider 7 down; when handle 4 is turned by 180°, slider 7 slides from the top to the bottom of rail groove so that inner pot 2 reaches its lower limit, where it is submerged again by the liquid in outer pot 1.

The inner pot of a liftable double pot of the present preferred embodiment enables the upward and downward movement of inner pot through a simple lifting mechanism so that the inner pot can be moved up and down at any time as needed to prevent the poor

2019101115 26 Sep 2019 taste of food resulting from excessively long or short heating time; this design avoids the sticking of food on pot, ensures food hygiene, and effectively prevents the waste of food. The preferred embodiment of the present utility model is detailed above; of course the present utility model can also be realized in a different way from the one mentioned 5 above; hence, the similar or corresponding modifications made by those skilled in the art without departing from the structure of the present invention shall fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
