No. 8141 is known. [0003] In the prior art, an appropriate through-hole is formed near the opening edge of the pot main body, a part of the inner peripheral wall, or the peripheral wall or bottom surface of the inner pan (tray). The steam was circulated to the inner pan (tray) side housed inside. [0004] However, such a steamer has a problem that the inner pot is difficult to handle. In other words, in this kind of pot, in order to consider combination storage,
Many of the inner pans have no handle member, and many have a simple suspending tool that straddles between the openings. , Also, especially when the inner pot is in a heated state,
Care must be taken because the inner pot may be dropped and an unexpected accident may occur. [0005] In addition, many of the inner pans (tray) related to the above-mentioned steam cooking have a limited use. For example, in the case where the steam cooking is followed by the boiling cooking, etc. Inconvenience, such as the necessity of using another pot. The present invention has been conceived in view of the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide an upper pan having a through-hole for steam cooking, with a common handle member having an opening shape similar to that of the pan main body. Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a combined cooking pot in which the handling of the upper pot during steam cooking is made safe and the use of the upper pot is expanded. [0007] According to the present invention, there is provided a combination cooking pot according to the present invention, wherein a peripheral edge of the pot edge around the opening is an inclined surface and an outer step portion for attaching a handle is provided below the edge. On the other hand, a pot provided with a handle member which is formed on the inner periphery of the inner wall portion of the pot edge below the outer step portion and which is detachably attached so as to sandwich the pot edge. The main body and the pot edge around the opening are formed in the same form as the pot main body to enable the attachment / detachment of the handle member, and the lower inner diameter from a predetermined position to the bottom of the body is set to a small diameter at the outer peripheral edge. An upper pot having a locking step for forming an overlap with the inner step of the pot body and having a long through hole formed at a predetermined interval in a circumferential direction of the locking step. [0008] In the combination cooking pot having the above-described configuration, the combination cooking pot can be accommodated by superposing the locking step of the upper pot on the inner step of the pot main body. [0009] In this state, the communication with the inside of the pot body is made through a long through hole provided in the locking step of the upper pot,
By putting water in the pot body and putting food in the upper pot and covering the pot, it becomes possible to use it as a steam cooker (steamer). [0010] When the steam cooking is completed, the handle member used for the pot body can be safely and reliably taken out of the pot body by attaching it to the pot edge of the upper pot. It is also possible to use it, and it is possible to smoothly shift to the next cooking process. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the illustrated embodiments. In the figure, 1 is a pot body, 2 is an upper pot, 3 is a lid, and 4 is a detachable handle by another member. An outer peripheral edge 11a of the pan edge 11 around the opening of the pan body 1 is an inclined surface, and an outer step portion 1 for attaching a handle is provided below the inclined edge.
1b, and an inner step 12 for receiving a lid is formed below the outer step 11b on the inner periphery of the wall inside the pot edge. At the position facing the peripheral wall of the pot on the inner step portion 12 of the pot main body 1, a recess 10 is formed in which the edge thereof is partially formed into a relatively wide curved shape to serve as a spout. Is also good. The pot edge 21 around the opening of the upper pot 2 also has an outer peripheral edge 21a having an inclined surface, an outer step 21b for mounting a handle, and an inner step 22 for receiving a lid in the same manner as the pot main body 1. It is formed. The body 23 is recessed at a predetermined position below the inner step 22 with an appropriate width H of about 10 mm to 15 mm inward to form a step, and the inner diameter up to the bottom is defined as the opening diameter. An engagement step portion 24 having a smaller diameter is formed, and the outer peripheral edge 24a is brought into contact with the inner step portion 12 of the pot main body 1 and stacked on the opening of the pot main body. It is provided so that. In this case, the body depth d below the locking step portion 24 is set so that the bottom portions do not contact each other when stacked on the pot body so that an appropriate space t is formed. When the upper pan 2 is formed, a plurality of types having different depth dimensions d can be provided as long as the requirements are satisfied. Further, a long through hole 25 is formed in the locking step portion 24.
Is formed. The long through holes 25 are formed at a plurality of locations at equal intervals. For example, the entire circumference is provided at three locations partitioned at 120 ° or at four locations partitioned at 90 °. The shape such as the dimension l is arbitrarily set at the time of molding. When the upper pan 2 provided as described above is overlapped with the opening of the pan main body 1, the outer peripheral edge 24a of the locking step 24 comes into contact with the inner step 12 of the pan main body, and the upper pan 2 is placed at the bottom thereof. And the bottom of the pot body is supported so as to create a space, and the combination is made in a form communicating with the inside of the pot body 1 at the portion of the long through hole 25. Since the pot body 1 and the upper pot 2 have the same configuration around the opening, the lid 3 and the handle 4 can be shared. A lid 3 used for the pot body 1 and the upper pot 2
Has a peripheral wall 31 of a required height which is fit in the opening of the pot main body 1 and can be placed on the inner step 12 and has a required height which is deeply overlapped with the pot peripheral wall on the inner step 12. This peripheral wall 3
Numeral 1 is inclined so as to form a gap S for catching the handle 4 between the inner peripheral portion 12 and the pot peripheral wall at the time of covering, and the inclined portion may have a curved surface. The handle 4 has a hook 41 bent downward at the tip of a handle body 40 provided in an appropriate shape so as to be easily handled by a user. A spring means (shown in the figure) comprising a metal fitting 42 provided to be able to move forward and backward, after inserting the metal fitting 41 from above into the gap between the pot edge 11 and the peripheral side wall 31. Omitted) and the like,
Is provided so as to be pressed against the outer surface of the lower pot and sandwich the pot edge 11 with the latch 41. There are many kinds of handles 4 of this kind, and any suitable handle member can be adopted according to the intended use as long as it is compatible with the pot edges of the pot body 1 and the upper pot 2. It is possible. Therefore, the pot main body 1 and the upper pot 2 provided in this manner need not be aligned for combination, etc., and the upper pot 2 is simply stacked on the opening of the pot main body 1. Can be easily combined. The upper pan 2 in the combined state has the locking step 24 in which the outer peripheral edge 24a of the locking step 24 is overlapped and supported by the inner step 12 of the pot body 1 and the bottom is formed to have a small inner diameter. The lower body portion has a space between the wall surface and the bottom surface of the pot main body 1 and is in a state of being suspended inside. Since the pot body and the inside of the upper pot body communicate with each other through the long through hole 25, water is poured into the pot body 1 and the lid 3 is placed on the inner step 22 of the upper pot. If covered, the function as a steam cooking pot (steamer) can be easily realized. That is, when the pot body 1 is heated from the above-mentioned cover state to generate steam, the steam flows into the body 23 through the long through hole 25 formed in the locking step portion 24. . Since the long through holes are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the locking step portion, there is no possibility that the inflow of steam into the upper pot is not biased. Therefore, when used as a steam cooking pot,
The usability of the upper pot 2 becomes very good. For example, after the frozen food is placed in the upper pot 2 and thawed by steam, the inner pot 2 is removed from the pot main body 1 by holding the handle portion 4, and the inner pot 2 is directly put on an open flame. It is carried out without stagnation, and is extremely safe compared to the conventional inner pot handling, and is also excellent in terms of improving work efficiency.
