Description

Portable handle

Technical Field

The utility model relates to the technical field of daily necessities, in particular to a portable detachable handle.

Background

The pot is a kitchen ware commonly used in daily life. The pots of the prior art are generally of two types: one is a pot with a handle, the handle is fixed with the pot body, the structure is stable, but the pot is not easy to be stored, and the pot can not be used in intelligent dish washing equipment; another is a pan without a handle, and people usually need to use a liner when carrying the pan to avoid scalding hands, so that the pan is relatively inconvenient to use, and has potential safety hazards of scalding caused by toppling over.

Some detachable handles have been designed in the prior art to allow a user to assemble or disassemble the detachable handle from the cooking vessel.

In the actual use process of users, the wall thickness of different cookware is often different, for example: the pot for stewing is thick in wall and thin in wall.

How to design a pot handle which can be suitable for pot tools with different wall thicknesses provides new challenges for designers.

Disclosure of Invention

The utility model provides a pot handle for clamping a pot, which is used for reliably clamping pot walls with two different thicknesses by arranging a step piece with two gears (two steps) in the handle.

The portable handle of the present utility model comprises: a fixed upper body, and a movable lower body; the front part of the lower body part is provided with a rake, and the rear part of the lower body part is provided with an operating rod; the operating rod is provided with a groove hole, and the upper end of the groove hole is provided with a blocking piece; the upper body is provided with a toggle switch and a return spring to provide a return force for returning the toggle switch to an initial position; the rear part of the toggle switch is connected with a step piece; the rear upper end of the step piece is provided with two steps, a first step and a second step; when the handle is in a first closed state, the blocking piece is contacted with the upper side of the first step; when the handle is in the second closed state, the blocking member contacts the upper side of the second step.

Further, in the first closed state/the second closed state, after the restoring force of the torsion spring is transmitted to the step member, the first step/the second step has a tendency to close the handle by the moment provided to the movable lower body by the blocking member, thereby resisting the moment of opening the handle.

Further, in the first closed state/the second closed state, the step is forced, and a part is thrust from the blocking member; one part is the restoring force from the torsion spring to reset the push-button switch and the pushing force is formed after the restoring force is transmitted to the step piece; the overall force is balanced.

Further, when the button end of the toggle switch is toggled backwards, the step piece is driven to move forwards, and therefore the clamping between the step piece and the blocking piece is relieved.

Further, the first step is below the second step; the process from the second closed state to the first closed state is: the toggle button of the toggle switch moves backwards to drive the step piece to move forwards, the second step is released, and the blocking piece on the operating rod falls down; the first closed state can be reached when the blocking member contacts the upper side of the first step.

Further, the upper body has a supporting portion therein for supporting the step, thereby preventing the middle/rear portion of the step from naturally falling down under the action of gravity.

For example, the upper body has an internal through hole therein; a part of the step piece passes through the through hole of the upper body part and can move in the through hole; the lower edge of the through hole forms a bearing part to prevent the step piece from falling.

Further, a spring is mounted on the lower body; in the first/second closed state, the compressed spring will provide a moment pushing the lever downward, which is intended to open the handle.

Further, after installation, the rake passes through the through slot in the front of the upper body, so that a portion of the rake is located above the upper body.

Further, after installation, the lower body part can rotate around the first rotating shaft, and the toggle switch can rotate around the second rotating shaft.

The rotary portable detachable handle has the beneficial effects that:

1. the step piece with two gears (two steps) is arranged in the handle, so that the reliable clamping of the pot walls with two different thicknesses is realized.

2. Through reasonable torque conduction, stable locking under two closing states is realized, and the reliability of the clamping process is ensured. Avoiding falling off under the condition of larger gravity (when the cooker is heavier or full of food).

3. The pot handle is simple in structure, convenient to operate and easy to use and store.

4. When the compression spring is arranged, the opening process can be smoother, quicker and easier.

5. When the limiting piece is installed, the handle can be prevented from being opened too much, the comfort level of use is improved, and the operation is more convenient.

In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "plurality" means at least two, for example, two, three, etc., unless specifically defined otherwise.

In the present utility model, unless explicitly stated and limited otherwise, the term "coupled" is to be construed broadly and may be directly coupled or indirectly coupled through intervening media, unless otherwise explicitly stated. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present utility model should be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art according to the specific circumstances.

Example 1

As shown in fig. 8, the portable handle of the present utility model has a fixed upper body part 1, and a movable lower body part 2. After installation, for example after the upper body 1 and the lower body 2 are mounted by connection means (e.g. connection pins), the lower body 2 can be turned about the first turning axis 3.

The front part of the lower body 2 is provided with a rake 21. The rake 21 is typically a hard metal piece, such as stainless steel. As shown in fig. 9, the rake 21 is designed in a U-shape. For example, a U-shape with one head, two legs. From a side view (fig. 2, 4, 5), the head portion of the rake 21 preferably has a curvature. The arrangement of the radian of the head ensures that the rake 21 and the pan wall have certain fitting degree and a certain force application angle, thereby being beneficial to clamping under different gears.

As shown in fig. 9, the rear of the lower body 2 is a lever 22. The lever 22 has a slot 23 therein. The upper end of the slot hole 23 is provided with a blocking member 53. In one embodiment, the slot 23 and the stop 53 on the lever 22 may be integrally formed with the lever 22. In another embodiment, it is not integrally formed. For example, as shown in fig. 8, the stopper 53 is fixed to the operation lever 22 by a set screw 27. In this case, the blocking member 53 may be a metal member, preferably a zinc alloy member.

Preferably, the underside of the lever 22 is configured in an arc shape for ease of handling. In fig. 9, the entire operation lever 22 is provided in the shape of a square groove. But in practice is not limited to this shape.

As shown in fig. 8 and 9, the rake 21 is fixed to the lever 22 by a fixing member such as a screw 25. More preferably, as shown in fig. 8 and 9, the rake 21 is pressed by a mounting plate 26 and then fixed to the lever 22 by screws 25.

As shown in fig. 1, after installation, the rake 21 passes through the through-slot in the front of the upper body 1, so that a portion of the rake 21 is located above the upper body 1, the rake 21 intersecting the upper body 1. Since the length of the through groove of the front portion of the upper body 1 is limited, the distance (angle) by which the rake 21 opens is also limited. Thus, the handle can be prevented from being opened too much.

As shown in fig. 8, the upper body (1) is provided with a toggle switch 4. For example, the toggle switch 4 is mounted on the upper body 1 by a connecting pin. After installation, the toggle switch 4 can be rotated about the second rotation axis 9. The toggle switch 4 is preferably made of hard plastic (synthetic resin). The finger poking part can be provided with anti-skid lines.

A return spring 8, for example a torsion spring, is mounted for the toggle switch 4 to provide a return force to return the toggle switch 4 to an initial position. For example, the toggle switch 4 is mounted on the rotation shaft 9 together with the return spring 8.

The rear part of the toggle switch 4 is connected with a step piece 5. As shown in fig. 8, the rear lower portion of the toggle switch 4 is connected with the front portion of the step 5. For example, as shown in fig. 6 to 8, when the button end 41 of the toggle switch 4 is toggled backward (the toggle switch 4 rotates clockwise), the step 5 is moved forward. For example, the button end 41 of the toggle switch 4 is toggled back, and the rear lower portion of the toggle switch 4 (and the front portion of the step 5 connected thereto) thus moves forward and downward.

The rear upper end of the step 5 is provided with two steps, a first step 51 and a second step 52. As shown in fig. 8, the first step 51 is below the second step 52. The material of the step 5 is preferably a hard metal so as to ensure a certain hardness and wear resistance. The zinc alloy member is further preferable because the zinc alloy has good casting properties and is suitable for precision members having a complicated die casting shape.

When the pan handle is in the first closed state, the blocking piece 53 contacts with the upper side of the first step 51. When the pan handle is in the second closed state, the blocking piece 53 contacts with the upper side of the second step 52.

Preferably, the upper body 1 has a support 61 therein for supporting the step 5, for example, the middle and/or rear of the step 5. Thereby preventing the middle/rear portion of the step 5 from naturally falling down under the force of gravity. As shown in fig. 10, the support portion 61 and the upper body portion 1 are integrally formed. For example, the upper body 1 has an internal through hole 6, such as a square hole, therein. When mounted, a part of the step 5 passes through this through hole 6 of the upper body 1, being movable in this through hole 6. At this time, the lower side of the through hole 6 forms a receiving portion 61 to prevent the step 5 from falling.

The pan handle of the present utility model has three states, an open state (see fig. 2, the rake being released from the body, when the pan handle can be removed from the pan rim), a first closed state (see fig. 5, the gap between the rake and the body being increased, the gap being suitable for clamping a relatively thick pan wall), and a second closed state (see fig. 4, the gap between the rake and the body being small, the gap being suitable for clamping a relatively thin pan wall). The first closing state and the second closing state are suitable for clamping pot walls with different thicknesses because the gaps between the rake and the main body (the rake and the upper body) are different.

The operation process of the pan handle of the utility model is as follows.

From the open state to the first closed state: from the state of fig. 8 to 7, the user holds the operating lever 22 of the lower body 2 with his hand, closing the pan handle upwards. As the gap between the operating lever 22 and the upper body 1 decreases, the lower end of the step 5 falls into the groove hole 23. When the first step 51 at the rear upper end of the step portion 5 contacts the stopper 53 on the slot 23, the first closed state is reached.

At this time, the step 5 is forced, a part of which is the thrust from the stopper 53 to the step 5 forward and downward; some of the restoring force from the torsion spring 8 to restore the push switch 4 is transmitted to the step member 5, and then the restoring force is transmitted to the step member 5 to push the step member 5 backward and upward. The forces are balanced.

At this time, after the restoring force of the torsion spring 8 is transmitted to the step member 5, the first step 51 provides an upward pushing force to the movable lower body 2 through the blocking member 53, and a moment (counterclockwise moment) of the desired closing handle, thereby resisting the moment (clockwise moment) of the desired opening handle to the grip of the pan wall. Thus, the moment is balanced.

Thus, the entire pan handle is in a rest state, the first closed state being also the first locked state.

From the first closed state to the second closed state: from the state of fig. 7 to 6, the user holds the operation lever 22 of the lower body part 2 further to close the pan handle upward. With further reduction of the gap between the operating lever 22 and the upper body 1, the upper end of the step 5 also falls into the slot hole 23. When the second step 52 at the rear upper end of the step portion 5 contacts the stopper 53 on the slot hole 23, the second closed state is reached.

At this time, after the restoring force of the torsion spring 8 is transmitted to the step member 5, the second step 52 provides an upward pushing force to the movable lower body 2 through the blocking member 53, and a moment (counterclockwise moment) of the desired closing handle, thereby resisting the moment (clockwise moment) of the desired opening handle to the grip of the pan wall. Thus, the moment is balanced.

Thus, the entire pan handle is in a rest state, and the second closed state is also the second locked state.

From the second closed state to the first closed state: from the state of fig. 6 to 7, the user pulls the push button 41 of the switch 4 rearward, driving the step 5 forward. The second step 52 is released (the upper side of the second step 52 moves away from the stopper 53), and the stopper 53 on the lever 22 thus falls. When the blocking piece 53 contacts the upper side of the first step 51, the first closed state can be reached.

From the first closed state to the open state: from the state of fig. 7 to 8, the toggle button 41 of the toggle switch 4 is continued to be moved backward by the user, and the step 5 is continued to be moved forward. The first step 51 is released (the upper side of the first step 51 leaves the stopper 53). The lever 22 of the lower body 2 is released from the restraint of the step and opened.

The embodiment has at least the following advantages:

3. The pan handle of this embodiment simple structure, the simple operation, easy to use and accomodate.

Example two

On the basis of the first embodiment, it is preferable to install a spring 7 on the lower body 2 to promote the opening from the first closed state to the open state.

For example, the spring 7 is mounted at a position close to the rotation shaft 3. For example, as shown in fig. 8, the spring 7 is mounted on a fixture (e.g., screw 25 and/or mounting plate 26) that secures the rake 21. For example, the spring 7 is sleeved on the screw 25. For example, as shown in FIG. 9, the mounting plate 26 is a perforated plate and the springs pass through holes in the mounting plate 26. Preferably, the spring 7 is a compression spring.

The presence of the spring 7 can promote a quick opening from the closed state to the open state.

During the transition from the open condition to the first closed condition/the second closed condition, the gap between the operating lever 22 and the upper body 1 decreases and the spring 7 is compressed. In the first closed condition, the compressed spring 7 will provide a moment (clockwise moment) pushing the lever 22 downwards intended to open the handle, but this opening moment will be blocked by the upward moment (anticlockwise moment) intended to close the handle provided by the first step 51 through the blocking member 53. Therefore, the moment remains balanced. Similarly, in the second closed condition, the compressed spring 7 will provide a moment (clockwise moment) pushing the lever 22 downwards intended to open the handle, but this opening moment will be blocked by the upward moment (anticlockwise moment) intended to close the handle provided by the second step 52 through the blocking member 53. Therefore, the moment remains balanced.

During the transition from the second closed condition to the first closed condition (or from the first/second closed condition to the open condition), the second step 52 (or the first step 51) is released (the upper side of the second step 52/first step 51 is clear of the blocking member 53), the moment balance is destroyed, and the moment (clockwise moment) provided by the spring 7 pushing the lever 22 downwards, which is intended to open the handle, pushes the opening of the handle. Thereby realizing easy and quick opening of the pan handle.

Further preferably, the spring 7 is a conical coil spring. Conical spiral spring, one end is bigger and the other end is smaller.

In this embodiment we have further optimised the construction of the pan handle. The presence of the spring 7 makes the opening process smoother, faster and easier.
