DE19652370A1 - Cooking pan with lid - Google Patents

Abstract

The cooking pan and lid can be connected together by a bayonet closure to form one fixed unit for straining the contents. By turning the bayonet closure several openings in the upper edge of the pan coincide with the same number of openings in the lid to form the straining holes. The size of the holes can be different on different sides to adjust to the size of the food to be strained.

Description

This invention is a cooking vessel with a lid and integrated Drainage and air compensation openings in both the lid and the rim of the vessel and with a bayonet lock between the vessel and the lid. The problems with pouring the hot or boiling water after one Include cooking process.

Dangers of scalding by holding the lid on, loss of food as well Difficulty balancing air during pouring. Numerous patent and utility model applications have dealt with these Problems.

As far as can be seen, only partial solutions to the problems mentioned have been achieved been. Also, for example, the cooking vessels according to patent DE 39 05 002 C2, which is currently are in the trade, because of material and complicated manufacture costly that they become inaccessible to many households. Also stay here despite the wide edge of the lid, the need to remove the lid when pouring to hold on, so that scalding and loss of food cannot be completely ruled out are.

The solution described below solves the problems mentioned at the beginning and can also be designed inexpensively in production Molding, production from stainless steel is not required.)

The cooking vessel presented here is on the one side in the upper Part of the vessel body about 1 cm below the edge a few pouring openings same size and the same number on the other side Pour openings, but of smaller size (round or oval).

The lid protruding into the cooking vessel with the one sitting on the vessel body Bead also has drainage openings on 2 opposite sides, which in their dimensions and their number the larger drain openings of the vessel correspond.

Next are the upper edge of the vessel and the lid rim protruding into the vessel designed so that the device of a Bayonet catch is located.

If the bayonet lock is actuated before the pouring process, the vessel and Lid firmly connected. The effort and danger of holding onto the Lid and the possibility of loss of food.

By activating the bayonet catch, the openings in the edge of the vessel become and those one above the other in the lid rim protruding into the vessel pushed so that a safe pouring is possible.

Due to the different size of the vascular openings on the opposite lying sides is now possible, depending on the type of food (coarse or pour) towards one or the other side.

The afterflow of air is not used for pouring off Guaranteed openings.

The handles of the cooking vessel (on the lid and 2 edges) should be made Insulating material. This makes the use of Potholders etc.

To avoid contamination of the vessel wall during the pouring process the drain openings on the cooking vessel presented so that they on her Bottom edge has an overhang to the outside.

As an alternative to the cantilevers mentioned, there is a narrower one circumferential edge around the cooking vessel directly below the drain openings above the handles on the cooking vessel.  

In summary, it can be said that the problems described when separating liquid and solid cookware when pouring the liquid through the described invention
Have to hold the lid
possible loss of food
Risk of scalding
Difficulty balancing air
can be fixed.

It is also a technically easy to manufacture and Inexpensive kitchen appliance that a wide range of customers could be made accessible.
