HusholdningslågHousehold lids

Den foreliggende frembringelse angår generelt et husholdningslåg med et centralt parti, der har et antal gennemgående passager, der strækker sig fra det centrale partis underside til dets overside, en rand, der er indrettet til at kunne ligge an mod kanten af en gryde eller en lignende beholder ved madlavning, så det centrale parti overdækker beholderens indre, samt et ventillegeme, der er fastgjort så det løftes til en åbnestilling bort fra oversiden, når en væske i beholderen hældes ud gennem i det mindste nogle af passagerne.The present invention generally relates to a household lid with a central portion having a plurality of through passages extending from the underside of the central portion to its upper side, an edge adapted to abut against the edge of a pot or the like. container during cooking so that the central portion covers the interior of the container, as well as a valve body that is secured so that it is lifted to an open position away from the top when a liquid in the container is poured out through at least some of the passages.

Fra GB 2 379 403, DE-U-29 820 883, GB 468 710 og GB 416 441 kendes eksempler på sådanne husholdningslåg, hvor passagerne virker som en si, og hvor ventillegemet under sædvanlig kogning befinder til i en lukketilstand, hvor det dækker over passagerne.Examples of such household lids are known from GB 2 379 403, DE-U-29 820 883, GB 468 710 and GB 416 441, where the passages act as a sieve and where the valve body is in a closed state during normal cooking, where it covers the passengers.

Det er et problem at de kendte løsninger fremstillingsmæssigt er relativt komplicerede og kan være vanskelige at rengøre, frembringelsen har til formål at løse et eller begge disse problemer, hvilket sker ved som angivet i den kendetegnende del, at ventillegemet er en flap af et elastisk materiale, der overdækker passagerne i ventillegemets lukkestilling.It is a problem that the known solutions are relatively complicated in terms of manufacture and can be difficult to clean, the creation is intended to solve one or both of these problems, which is done by, as stated in the characterizing part, that the valve body is a flap of an elastic material , which covers the passages in the closed position of the valve body.

Flappen er fortrinsvis aftageligt fastgjort, og fremstillet af et varmebestandigt elastomermateriale.The flap is preferably removably attached, and made of a heat-resistant elastomeric material.

Fordelagtige udførelsesformer fremgår af de afhængige karv.Advantageous embodiments appear from the dependent carvings.

Frembringelsen vil i det følgende blive forklaret nærmere under henvisning til en foretrukket udførelsesform.The invention will be explained in more detail below with reference to a preferred embodiment.

Fig. 4 viser et tværsnit gennem husholdningslåget i fig. 2.FIG. 4 shows a cross section through the household lid in fig. 2.

Fig. 1 viser med henvisningstallet 1 et husholdningslåg til en gryde eller en lignende beholder til brug ved madlavning på et komfur, herunder ved kogning af fødevarer, såsom pasta eller kartofler, i en væske. Låget 1 har greb 10, et centralt parti 5, og en rand 15, hvormed låget ligger an mod kanten af en ikke vist gryde. Låget 1, eller dele af det, kan være af glas eller metal.FIG. 1 shows with the reference numeral 1 a household lid for a pot or a similar container for use in cooking on a stove, including when cooking food, such as pasta or potatoes, in a liquid. The lid 1 has handles 10, a central portion 5, and a rim 15, with which the lid abuts against the edge of a pot (not shown). The lid 1, or parts thereof, may be of glass or metal.

Lågets 1 centrale parti 5 har et antal gennemgående passager 8, der gør det muligt at hælde et flydende indhold 4 i gryden ud gennem passagerne 8 ved at holde gryden med låget 1 skråt over en køkkenvask. Passagerne 8 udgør dermed en si, der i et omfang tilbageholder faste materialer, f.eks. kartofler eller pasta, i gryden.The central portion 5 of the lid 1 has a number of through passages 8 which make it possible to pour a liquid content 4 into the pot out through the passages 8 by holding the pot with the lid 1 obliquely over a kitchen sink. The passages 8 thus form a sieve which to a extent retains solid materials, e.g. potatoes or pasta, in the pan.

Som det også ses er der i anlæg mod lågets 1 centrale parti 5 placeret et fladt ventillegeme 20 i form af en flap af et elastisk materiale, der overdækker passagerne 8 i ventillegemets ikke viste lukkestilling; flappen 20 er fortrinsvis fastgjort til låget 1, fortrinsvis som beskrevet senere nedenfor.As can also be seen, in abutment against the central portion 5 of the lid 1, a flat valve body 20 is placed in the form of a flap of an elastic material which covers the passages 8 in the closed position of the valve body (not shown); the flap 20 is preferably attached to the lid 1, preferably as described later below.

Ventillegemet eller flappen 20 er på tegningen skematisk vist i dens åbnestilling, hvor en del af flappen 20 er løftet lidt bort fra dens anlæg mod det centrale parti 5 af væske 4, der via passager 8 hældes ud fra gryden. I udførelseseksemplet er flappen 20 fastgjort til det centrale parti 5 ved hele eller en del af en diameterlinie 25, og denne linie 25 udgør dermed hvad der kan beskrives som en bøjelinie omkring hvilken flappen 20 bøjer bort væk fra de passager 8, hvorigennem væsken hældes ud.The valve body or flap 20 is schematically shown in the drawing in its open position, where a part of the flap 20 is lifted slightly away from its abutment against the central portion 5 of liquid 4, which is poured out of the pot via passages 8. In the exemplary embodiment, the flap 20 is attached to the central portion 5 by all or part of a diameter line 25, and this line 25 thus constitutes what can be described as a bending line around which the flap 20 bends away from the passages 8 through which the liquid is poured out. .

3 DK 2010 00083 U4 Låget 1 er i eksemplet forsynet med to greb 10 placeret over for hinanden, hvorved bøjelinien 25 strækker sig fra det ene greb til det anden. Passagerne 8 er dannet i det centrale parti 5 i to modstående områder langs randen 15; dette passer med at brugeren vil holde i grebene 10 og i grydens hanke, når indholdet af væske skal hældes ud.3 DK 2010 00083 U4 In the example, the lid 1 is provided with two handles 10 placed opposite each other, whereby the bending line 25 extends from one handle to the other. The passages 8 are formed in the central portion 5 in two opposite areas along the rim 15; this fits the user will hold in the handles 10 and in the handles of the pot when the contents of liquid are to be poured out.

I fig. 2 er vist en alternativ udførelsesform, hvor låget 1 har et enkelt greb 10’ placeret ved lågets 1 midte.In FIG. 2 shows an alternative embodiment in which the lid 1 has a single handle 10 'located at the center of the lid 1.

Fordi flappen 20 er af et elastisk materiale vil den fortrinsvis søge af sig selv at vende tilbage til dens udgangsstilling, dvs. til lukkestillingen, hvor den som nævnt overdækker passagerne 8, eksempelvis så den også i et omfang kan modstå et vist relativt stort indvendigt damptryk i gryden, før den bøjes bort fra passagerne 8. Sidstnævnte effekt kan opnås ved at vælge en passende bøjningsstivhed, og en fordel ved denne effekt kan være at man under kogning i et omfang kan opnå en aflastning af høje tryk i gryden ved at der sker et dampudslip og dermed begrænse mængden af vand der ved kraftig kogning ellers kan trænge ud mellem lågets 1 rand 15 og grydens kant.Because the flap 20 is of an elastic material, it will preferably seek by itself to return to its initial position, i.e. to the closed position, where as mentioned it covers the passages 8, for example so that it can also to some extent withstand a certain relatively large internal steam pressure in the pan before it is bent away from the passages 8. The latter effect can be achieved by selecting a suitable bending stiffness, and a advantage of this effect can be that during cooking to a certain extent a relief of high pressures in the pot can be achieved by a steam leak and thus limiting the amount of water which in case of heavy boiling can otherwise penetrate between the lid 1 edge 15 and the edge of the pot .

I fig. 3 er vist hvorledes flappen kan monteres på det centrale parti 5, der til formålet er forsynet med en gennemgående åbning med en rand markeret med tallet 23. Flappen 20 har på undersiden 2 et cirkulært fremspring med en cirkulær rille til at optage åbningens rand 23 ved en snapvirkning, så flappen 20 om nødvendigt, fortrinsvis ved at hele flappen 20 er af det nævnte elastiske materiale, kan snappes ud af indgrebet med henblik på rengøring af flappen. Flappen 20 er i fig. 3 skematisk og overdrevet vist i åbnestillingen, svarende til stilling vist i fig. 1.In FIG. 3 shows how the flap can be mounted on the central portion 5, which for this purpose is provided with a through-opening with an edge marked with the number 23. The flap 20 has on the underside 2 a circular projection with a circular groove for receiving the opening 23 at a snap action so that the flap 20, if necessary, preferably in that the entire flap 20 is of said elastic material, can be snapped out of the engagement for the purpose of cleaning the flap. The flap 20 is in fig. 3 schematically and exaggeratedly shown in the opening position, corresponding to the position shown in fig. 1.

I fig. 4 er vist en alternativ aftagelig fastgørelse af flappen 20, i dette tilfælde til grebet 10’ vist i fig. 2. Grebet 10' kan som vist have rundgående riller, som DK 2010 00083 U4 4 samvirker med randen 25 af en gennemgående åbning 11 ’ i flappens midte. Flappen 20 kan derved monteres ved at blive trykket nedover grebet 10’, og afmonteres ved en modsat bevægelse, under brug af flappens 20 elastiske egenskaber. I fig. 4 er med stiplet linie vist flappens lukkestilling, hvor den 5 ligger fladt an mod oversiden 3 af lågets 1 centrale parti 5 og dermed afspærrer passagerne 8.In FIG. 4 shows an alternative detachable attachment of the flap 20, in this case to the handle 10 'shown in fig. The handle 10 'may, as shown, have circumferential grooves, which DK 2010 00083 U4 4 cooperate with the rim 25 of a through-opening 11' in the middle of the flap. The flap 20 can thereby be mounted by being pressed down on the handle 10 ', and removed by an opposite movement, using the elastic properties of the flap 20. In FIG. 4, the closed position of the flap is shown in broken line, where it 5 lies flat against the upper side 3 of the central portion 5 of the lid 1 and thus closes off the passages 8.

Det skal nævnes at flappen 20 med fordel kan være fremstillet af et varme-bestandigt elastomermateriale, såsom silikone. Passagerne 8 kan tillige have 10 et tværsnitsareal på 0,5 - 300 mm2, fortrinsvis 3-10 mm2, og i en udførelsesform kun der alene være én passage, der kan være arrangeret i nærhed af randen 15.It should be mentioned that the flap 20 may advantageously be made of a heat-resistant elastomeric material, such as silicone. The passages 8 can also have a cross-sectional area of 0.5 - 300 mm2, preferably 3-10 mm2, and in one embodiment there is only one passage which can be arranged in the vicinity of the rim 15.
