Abstract

[PROBLEMS] Conventionally, drop lids used for cooking utensils such as pans have been made of metal, wood, resin, or disposable paper. There were no drop lids that were easy to clean, easy to use, few parts, and easy to manufacture.
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention makes it easy to wash by making a lid plate of a drop lid with a thin soft material and squeezing the lid plate 1 through a ring to a projection provided in the center of the lid plate. Although it is a single lid, it is possible to change the size according to the size of the pan, and it is possible to provide a drop lid that has few parts and is easy to manufacture. Also, by providing a ring holding part that connects the ring to the cover plate or the protrusion and integrally forming them, it is possible to provide a drop cover that is easier to use and easier to wash and easier to make.

Description

The present invention relates to a drop lid used for cooking utensils such as a pan.

Conventionally, drop lids have been made of wood, metal, resin or paper.

Some of them can change the size of the drop lid according to the size of the pan etc., and it was possible to change the size by combining fan-shaped parts made of metal or hard resin .

Drop lids made of such a combination of parts sometimes accumulate dirt on the overlapping parts, so that some lids were easy to disassemble and wash.

In addition, some paper drop lids were cut to the outer circumference to fit the size of the pan. These paper drop lids were disposable.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a dropping lid that can be changed in size according to the size of the pan, and at the same time has a small number of parts, is easy to use and is easy to wash.

In order to solve the above problems, in the present invention, a lid plate for a drop lid is made of a thin soft material, a projection is provided at the center, and a ring that is sufficiently smaller than the projection plate is used.

In addition, a strap for connecting the ring to the cover plate or the protruding portion, or a band-shaped ring holding portion is provided.

Further, the cover plate, the protrusion, the holding portion, and the ring can be integrally formed.

The drop lid of the present invention can adjust the size of the drop lid even though it is a single lid plate by placing the ring on the lid plate so that the projection portion can be passed through and pulling the projection portion to squeeze the lid plate.

Further, by providing a strap or a ring-shaped ring holding portion that connects the ring to the cover plate or the protruding portion, there is no possibility of losing the ring, and it becomes easier to use.

Moreover, it becomes easier to wash | clean by integrally forming a cover plate, a projection part, a ring holding part, and a ring.

Hereinafter, the best mode for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2, and 3. FIG.

FIG. 1 is a view of a drop lid according to the present invention, FIG. 2 shows a state in which a ring 3 is passed through a projection 2 and is placed on a lid 1, and FIG. 3 pulls the projection 2 to squeeze the lid 1. Indicates the state.

The cover plate 1 is made of a soft material having excellent flexibility such as a heat-resistant silicone resin, and the protrusion 2, the ring 3, and the ring holding portion 4 extending from a part of the outer periphery of the cover plate 1 are also made of the same material. It is molded into. The protrusion 2 is provided with a protrusion for hooking the ring 3 when the cover plate 1 is used without being squeezed.

When the lid plate 1 is used after being squeezed, it is placed on the material contained in the pan or the like in the state shown in FIG. At this time, since the position of the protruding portion 2 is increased, it is easy to pick the protruding portion 2 and remove the lid, and it is also possible to lift the ring holding portion 4 by hooking it with a ladle or vegetable chopsticks. In order to spread the cover plate 1 on the material more reliably, a metal or other weight may be placed inside the ring 3.

After use, the ring 3 can be removed from the projection 2 to return to the flat state of FIG. At this time, since the whole is flat, it is easy to wash, and the ring 3 is hooked on a hook or the like to drop and catch the lid, and it is easy to dry and clean.

FIG. 4 is a view of an embodiment of the present invention in which a ring holding portion 4 is provided at the tip of the protrusion 2.

In this case, the ring holding part 4 is passed inside the ring 3 so that it can be used as a drop lid as shown in FIG. 4, and the reverse operation makes it easy to wash.

FIG. 5 is a view of an embodiment of the drop lid of the present invention in which the ring holding part 4 is not provided and the ring 3 is independent.

In this case, it is easy to make the ring 3 as heavy as metal, and when the cover plate 1 is made smaller by being squeezed, it is easy to ensure that the cover plate 1 extends on the material.

In addition, there is a protrusion that protrudes left and right so that the ring 3 does not come off at the top of the protrusion 2. At this time, the protrusion 2 may be made of a different material and attached. However, if the protrusion 2 is integrally formed of the same flexible material as the cover plate 1, the protrusion 3 can be bent and the ring 3 taken out and washed separately. is there.

The present invention makes it possible to change the size according to the size of the pan, and at the same time, it is possible to provide an easy-to-use, clean and easy-to-clean drop lid with a small number of parts.

In the best mode for carrying out the present invention, the lid plate 1, the projection 2, the ring 3, and the ring holding portion 4 extending from a part of the outer periphery of the lid plate 1 are integrally formed. Perspective view. FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the dropping lid of the present invention in which the ring 3 is passed through the protrusion 2 and placed on the lid plate 1 in the dropping lid of FIG. 1. FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the drop lid of the present invention in which the projection plate 2 is pulled to squeeze the lid plate 1 in the drop lid of FIG. 2. The perspective view of the drop lid of this invention by which the ring holding | maintenance part 4 was provided in the front-end | tip of the projection part 2 concerning Example 1 of this invention. The perspective view of the dropping lid of this invention concerning Example 2 which does not provide the ring holding | maintenance part 4 but the ring 3 is independent.
