The middle some terms used are described below just to convenient rather than limitation.Term " under ", " bottom ", " on " and " top " represent direction in the accompanying drawing of reference.According to the disclosure, word " upcountry ", " outwards ", " upwards Ground " is correspondingly represented with " down " towards the direction with remote device and its geometric center of specified parts.Unless have here Illustrate, term " one (a) ", " one (an) ", " being somebody's turn to do (the) " are not limited to an element, but be alternatively construed as body Represent " at least one ".Term includes the word of word above-mentioned, its derivative words and similar meaning.
In detail referring to the drawings, wherein identical reference represents identical element all the time, and Fig. 2 to Fig. 5 shows root According to the baking box control handle 30 of the preferred embodiment of the disclosure.Control handle 30 is provided for increasing to related fixed block 60 Add the simple and cost-effective device of auxiliary movement, so that the feature that stays open in baking box engages with clock operation switch, Clock operation switch has is staying open feature with what is be activated on the equidirectional of countdown to " closing ".Control handle 30 can be incorporated into any appropriate baking box or other similar cook utensils.
Similar to Traditional control knob, control handle 30 optionally clockwise and rotate counterclockwise, to start baking box Desired the number of minutes starts baking box until it closes (" staying open ").In the embodiment as shown, control handle is worked as 30 set (that is, 12 in the legend shown towards " closing ":00 clock position) when, baking box is stopped.In order to start baking box Desired the number of minutes, control handle 30 is rotated clockwise to the label of the desired operation duration (by minute) of instruction baking box 52.In order to start baking box until it closes (" staying open "), control handle 30 is rotated counterclockwise to and " keeps beating by user Open " set 54.Then, baking box will keep starting, and be set until the rotate counterclockwise of control handle 30 is returned " closing " by user.
On traditional control handle, control handle 30 can be connected to mechanical timer (not shown).Bar 36 is from control The rear side of knob 30 stretches out so that when control handle 30 is installed to baking box, bar 36, which projects through, is limited to baking box 56 (in Fig. 5 In partly show) surface in hole 64.The post (not shown) corresponding to mechanical timer of cavity 38 being limited in bar 36 Engagement, therefore rotary control knob 30 causes the post rotation of mechanical timer.
The main body 32 of control handle 30 can generally be bell, have open back side and hollow inside so that wherein Define internal chamber 34.Bar 36 is extended to outside this chamber 34.
Different from Traditional control knob, the control handle 30 of embodiment of the present disclosure comprises at least the first button 40 and can Second button 42 of choosing.First button 40 can be positioned on the outside of control handle 30 so that the first button 40 is by user Readily easily press (as described further below).If there is the second button 42, then the second button 42 can be with First button is oppositely located on the outside of control handle 30 so that user readily easily press simultaneously by pressing two Button.
As shown in Figure 3, the first button 40 is fixed to the securing rod 44 or in conjunction towards open back side extension.Lock Fixed pole 44 extends enough to the opening at the rear side of control handle, (as described further below to be engaged with fixed block ), but do not extend over opening (this will cause securing rod 44 undesirably to be contacted with the surface of baking box).First button 40 Such as it is biased outwardly with securing rod 44 by biasing spring 48.
As shown in Figure 3, if there is the second button 42, then the second button can be fixed or can be not affixed to towards opening The bar 46 or in conjunction of extension on rear side of mouthful.If there is bar 46, it should not extend enough to the rear side close to control handle The opening at place with fixed block to engage at any point in the rotary course of control handle 30.Second button 42 and bar 46 are such as It is biased outwardly by biasing spring 48.
Fixed block 60 is outstanding from the surface of baking box 56.Fixed block is located so that when control handle 30 is installed to baking box When control handle 30 main body 32 cover fixed block (that is, most or all of fixed block is located in chamber 34).In Fig. 4 Shown, fixed block 60 can include thin flat protuberance.Fig. 4 fixed block 60 from the surface punching press of baking box, cutting or with Other modes are formed as the lug folded so that it is substantially vertical with the surface of baking box.
Fixed block 60 is positioned so as to securing rod 44, when control handle 30 is located at the appropriate location on baking box and is in When " closing " is set, securing rod 44 is adjacent to fixed block 60.In this respect, when user is attempted control handle 30 from " closing " position When putting rotation (counterclockwise in the embodiment as shown) to " staying open " position, the distal end of securing rod 44 will contact and be consolidated Determine block 60 to stop, thus prevent control handle 30 from rotating to " staying open " position (unless as described herein below from " closing " position , the first button 40 is pressed to move securing rod 44).As finding, the leading edge 58 of the distal end of securing rod 44 can be done in Figure 5 Squarely (plane), to ensure the good contact between securing rod 44 and fixed block 60, so as to stop control handle from " closing " Position rotates (counterclockwise in the embodiment as shown) to " staying open " position.
In order to which control handle 30 can be rotated (counterclockwise in the embodiment as shown) by user from " closing " position To " staying open " position, user must press the first button 40 (user can also press the second button 42 (if there is If), but this may or may not be necessary).Press the first button 40 cause securing rod 44 move inward (for example, By sliding or moving pivotally, or any other appropriate motion or mechanism).This move inward of securing rod 44 allows to lock Thus the distal end of fixed pole 44 enables control handle 30 be rotated from " closing " position (in the embodiment party shown away from fixed block 60 In formula counterclockwise) to " staying open " position.Once the distal end rotation of securing rod 44 discharges by fixed block 60 and user First button 40, the first button will be displaced outwardly with securing rod 44 due to outwards biasing and return to their original locations.
Fig. 5 shows the button, securing rod and the biasing spring that are removed from control handle of control handle 30.Such as in Fig. 4 In see, the first button 40 is with the one of securing rod 44 or fixed to securing rod 44, and the second button and securing rod 46 1 Body or fixed to securing rod 46.In this way, the first button 40 of pressing causes securing rod 44 to move inward and presses the second button 42 cause securing rod 46 to move inward.In the embodiment as shown, when pressing corresponding button, securing rod inwardly pivots. Each securing rod includes pivotal arm 66, and pivotal arm engages with the inside top surface of knob, so that distal end is (that is, closer to baking box Surface end) can inwardly pivot.
When user it is expected to close baking box (from " staying open " position), user is by control handle 30 from " holding is beaten Open " position is rotated clockwise to " closing " position.When user attempt control handle 30 is clockwise from " staying open " position When rotating to " closing " position, in order that the distal end of securing rod 44 is not stopped by fixed block 60, it may be necessary to which user presses again Press the first button 40.However, it is necessary to it is probably undesirable that user presses the first button 40 again.Alternatively, securing rod 44 (that is, the securing rod engaged with fixed block) can have inclined surface 50, be rotated when control handle 30 is set from " staying open " When being set to " closing ", the inclined surface engages with fixed block.This engagement between inclined surface and fixed block upcountry pushes away Dynamic securing rod 44 (towards bar 36), set with allowing control handle to rotate back to " closing " in the case where the first button 40 need not be pressed Put.In other words, although being necessary to press the first button 40 so that knob 30 rotates to " staying open " and set from " closings " setting Put, but the first button 40 of unnecessary pressing rotates to " closing " setting so that knob 30 is set from " staying open ".Once lock Fixed block 60 is passed through in the distal end rotation of fixed pole 44, and the first button will be displaced outwardly and return due to outwards biasing with securing rod 44 To their initial position.
The other shapes of the distal end of securing rod 44 and fixed block 60 are feasible, as long as providing counterclockwise from " closing " position The expectation for rotating to " staying open " position stops (during except the first button of pressing or similar means), and control handle can From " staying open " position be rotated clockwise to " closing " position expectation allow (preferably regardless of whether pressing the first button or Similar means).
Fixed block 60 includes thin metal tabs.In alternative embodiment, fixed block can be thicker.If fixed block compared with Thickness, it may be desirable that having inclined surface for fixed block, rotated to when control handle 30 is set from " staying open " When " closing " is set, this inclined surface engages with the inclined surface of securing rod.Have on both securing rod and fixed block and tilt The expectation that surface can advantageously promote securing rod inwardly promotes, to allow control to revolve in the case where that need not press the first button Button rotates to " closing " setting.
Fixed block can have any appropriate height, and this provides to rotate counterclockwise to from " closing " position and " keeps beating Open " expectation of position stops (during except the first button of pressing or similar means), but the interference control of this not meeting other modes The operation or rotation of knob processed.
It is described above to be, once the distal end rotation of securing rod 44 discharges the first button by fixed block 60 and user 40, the first button will be displaced outwardly with securing rod 44 due to outwards biasing and return to their original locations.In other words, When control handle is located at " staying open " position, securing rod away from each other and does not contact with fixed block.In the alternative of the present invention In embodiment, the size of securing rod and/or fixed block can design and/or be positioned so as to securing rod and keep connecing with fixed block Touch, and when control handle is located at " staying open " position, securing rod keeps inwardly promoting.
It may be desirable that when control handle is located at " closing " position, the several years between securing rod and fixed block be present Revolution space, to help to ensure inside motion of the fixed block without interference with securing rod.
Referring now to Fig. 6, the baking box control handle 80 according to the alternative embodiment of the disclosure is shown.Control handle 80 Bar 86 with the rear side stretching from control handle 80 so that when control handle 80 is installed to baking box, bar 86 projects through limit The hole 103 being scheduled in the surface 104 of baking box.The cavity being limited in bar 86 post 110 corresponding to mechanical timer 108 engages, So as to which rotary control knob 80 rotates the post 110 of mechanical timer 108.The main body 82 of control handle 80 can generally be clock Shape, there is open back side and hollow inside so that wherein define internal chamber 84.Bar 86 is extended to outside the chamber 84.
Main body 82 is optionally in first (inside) lengthwise position (being shown in Fig. 6) and second (outside) lengthwise position Longitudinally moved between (not shown).Main body is by towards first longitudinal direction position inward bias.It is located at first longitudinal direction position with main body 82 Compared when putting, when main body 82 is located at second longitudinal direction position, main body 82 is farther away from surface 104.Main body is pulled away from surface 104 82 cause main body to be moved to second longitudinal direction position from first longitudinal direction position.When main body is moved to outside longitudinal direction from inside lengthwise position During position, Timer Controlling knob 80 optionally rotates to from closed position only along second direction and stays open position. In this regard, control handle 80 is known as " pulling rotation " knob.
Bar 86 is fixed firmly to timer shaft 110.Slip collar 88 is fixed to the main body 82 of control handle 80, such as has There is the shoulder 90 of circumferential slot (or any other appropriate maintaining body) engagement corresponding in main body 82.Bar 86 and slip cap Ring 88 slidably engages.Bar 86 can include corresponding position assurance mechanism (for example, key and groove) with slip collar 88 so that Bar 86 can only in one direction (i.e., it is ensured that (retouch below in the direction that fixed block is properly aligned with stopping tab with slip collar 88 State)) on engage.Slidable engagement exactly between bar 86 and slip collar 88 enable main body 82 longitudinally selectively outwards with Move inward.Main body 82 is fixed to bar 86 with slip collar 88 via holding pin 94.Keeping the inner of pin 94 has positioning Enlarged head 96 in the cavity of bar 86.The slender body of pin 94 is kept to project through bar 86 and the phase in slip collar 88 Answer centre bore.The outer end of pin 94 is kept to be positioned in the central cavity 92 of main body 82.Compression spring 100 is around holding pin 94 Slender body the part in the central cavity 92 of main body 82.Retaining ring 98 is fixed to the outer end for keeping pin 94.When User's grip body 82 and when pulling out, main body 82 moves longitudinally outward with slip collar 88 relative to bar 86.Spring 100 It is compressed between retaining ring 98 and slip collar 88.Main body 82 can be only pulled outwardly in the range of keeping pin 94 to allow It is dynamic --- when spring 100 is compressed completely by retaining ring 98 to be resisted against on slip collar 88, main body 82 is displaced outwardly positioned at it The limit.
Fixed block 106 protrudes from the surface 104 of baking box 56.Stopping tab 102 is positioned in the internal chamber 84 of main body 82. When main body 82 is located inside lengthwise position, stopping tab 102 is aligned with fixed block 106, to prevent control handle 80 along Two directions rotate to " staying open " position from " closing " position.When main body 82 is located at outside lengthwise position (that is, user to During outer pulling main body), stopping tab 102 and the misalignment of fixed block 106, thus allow control handle 80 along second direction from " closing " position rotates to " staying open " position.When user discharges main body 82, main body 82 is with slip collar 88 due to bullet The bias of spring 100 and return to inside lengthwise position.
The size of fixed block and/or stopping tab can be designed and is positioned so as to, when control handle is positioned at " holding is beaten Open " position when, prevent the main body of control handle from returning to inside lengthwise position.This causes main body 82 to be maintained at outside longitudinal position Put, until main body returns to " closing " position.This causes the Timer Controlling knob in the case where pulling out main body without using person " closing " position can be rotated to from " staying open " position.
Fixed block can have inclined surface, " be closed when Timer Controlling knob starts to rotate to from " staying open " position Close " position when, the inclined surface engages with stopping tab.Addition, or alternatively, stopping tab can have inclined surface, when When Timer Controlling knob starts to rotate to " closing " position from " staying open " position, the inclined surface engages with fixed block. When Timer Controlling knob starts to rotate to " closing " position from " staying open " position, should (these) inclined surface longitudinal direction to Other places promotes main body, to allow Timer Controlling knob in the case where pulling out main body without using person from " staying open " position Rotate to " closing " position.
Referring now to Fig. 7, the baking box control handle 120 according to the alternative embodiment of the disclosure is shown.Control handle 120 have the bar 126 stretched out from the rear side of control handle 120 so that when control handle 120 is installed to baking box, bar 126 protrudes Through the hole 139 being limited in the surface 140 of baking box.The cavity post corresponding to mechanical timer 144 being limited in bar 126 146 engagements, so as to which rotary control knob 120 rotates the post 146 of mechanical timer 144.The main body 122 of control handle 120 can To be generally bell, there is open back side and hollow inside so that wherein define internal chamber 124.Bar 126 extends to Outside this chamber 124.

Bar 126 is fixed firmly to timer shaft 146.Slip collar 128 is fixed to the main body 122 of control handle 120.Bar 126 slidably engage with slip collar 128 so that the enlarged diameter portion of bar 126 can be in the internal chamber of slip collar 128 Slided in 136.Retaining ring 130 keep the bar 126 slidably engaged with slip collar 128 and limit slip collar (and Thus main body 122) can move longitudinally outward how far.Retaining ring 130 is fixed to slip collar 128 rather than fixed to bar 126.Bar 126 can include corresponding position assurance mechanism (for example, key and groove) with slip collar 128 so that bar 126 and slip collar 128 can only in one direction (i.e., it is ensured that direction that fixed block is properly aligned with stopping tab (description below)) on engage.Just It is that slidable engagement between bar 126 and slip collar 128 enables main body 122 longitudinally selectively outwards with moving inward.
Compression spring 134 positions (at least in part) in the central cavity 132 of main body 122.Compression spring 134 is according to cunning The relative position of the dynamic collar 128 and bar 126 is partly extended in the chamber 136 of slip collar 128.When user inwardly promotes During main body 122, main body 122 moves longitudinally inboard with slip collar 128 relative to bar 126.Outer wall of the spring 134 in chamber 132 Compressed between bar 126.Main body 122 can be only pushed inwardly in the range of the permission of slip collar 128 --- work as slip When the shoulder of the collar 128 touches bar 126, main body 122 is located at its limit being displaced outwardly.
Fixed block 142 protrudes from the surface 140 of baking box 56.The outer end or distal end of fixed block are inclined.Stopping tab 138 It is positioned in the internal chamber 124 of main body 122.When main body 122 is located at outside lengthwise position, stopping tab 138 and fixed block 142 alignments, to prevent control handle 120 from rotating to " staying open " position from " closing " position along second direction.Work as main body 122 when being located inside lengthwise position (that is, when user inwardly promotes main body), and stopping tab 138 is not aligned with fixed block 142, Thus control handle 120 is allowed to rotate to " staying open " position along second direction from " closing " position.When user is inside When promoting main body 122, the beveled distal end of fixed block 142 enables fixed block to be moved out the alignment with stopping tab 138.When making When user discharges main body 122, main body 122 returns to outside lengthwise position with slip collar 128 due to the bias of spring 134.
The size of fixed block and/or stopping tab can be designed and is positioned so as to, when control handle is positioned at " holding is beaten Open " position when, prevent the main body of control handle from returning to outside lengthwise position.This causes main body 122 to be maintained inside longitudinal position Put, until main body returns to " closing " position.This causes the Timer Controlling knob in the case where being pushed into main body without using person " closing " position can be rotated to from " staying open " position.
Fixed block can have inclined surface, " be closed when Timer Controlling knob starts to rotate to from " staying open " position Close " position when, the inclined surface engages with stopping tab.Addition, or alternatively, stopping tab can have inclined surface, when When Timer Controlling knob starts to rotate to " closing " position from " staying open " position, the inclined surface engages with fixed block. When Timer Controlling knob starts to rotate to " closing " position from " staying open " position, (these) inclined surface is somebody's turn to do by main body Inside lengthwise position is pushed to from outside lengthwise position, to allow Timer Controlling in the case where being pushed into main body without using person Knob rotates to " closing " position from " staying open " position.
It will be recognized by those skilled in the art, can be right in the case of without departing from the broad inventive concept of the present invention Above-mentioned embodiment makes a change.It is therefore to be understood that the disclosure is not limited to disclosed particular implementation, but The modification being intended in the spirit and scope of the present disclosure that covering is defined by the following claims.
