Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial field of application] This invention relates to a cooking oil droplet scattering prevention lid.

[Conventional technology]

BACKGROUND ART When cooking tempura or fried foods, in order to prevent oil droplets from scattering from the oil pot to the surrounding area, it has been conventional practice to cover the oil pot during cooking with a lid to prevent scattering.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

The above-mentioned oil droplet scattering prevention lid is usually a single metal plate with a handle that protrudes outward, but this lid can be packaged as a set with an oil pot, a basket, etc. There was a problem with the protruding handle of the lid, which got in the way when it was being stored.

In order to solve the above problem, it would be possible to construct the handle so that it can be folded freely, but if a hinge is provided around the periphery of the lid and the handle is attached using this, the strength of the hinge part must be designed to exceed a certain level. In order to do so, the structure becomes relatively complicated and the number of parts must also increase.

Therefore, the object of this invention is to provide an oil droplet scattering prevention lid that has a simple structure and a foldable handle structure that provides the required strength.

[Means for solving problems]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, this invention forms a pair of opposing hinge pieces at a position offset from the outer periphery of the lid by a required distance toward the center of the lid, and between the hinge pieces and the outer periphery. A pair of opposing cut and raised lock pieces are formed with their opposing parts open, and a rotating shaft part bent outward is formed at both ends of the handle, which is formed by bending a metal wire into a U shape. The shaft portion is rotatably inserted into the hinge piece, and the middle of the handle is engaged with the cut-and-raised lock piece.

[Effect]

If you press the middle of the metal wires that form the handle closer to each other, the handle will come off the lock piece.
The handle can be folded along the top of the lid.
Conversely, the handle is locked to the lid by the reverse operation.

〔Example〕

In the embodiment shown in the accompanying drawings, a cover plate 1 made of a rectangular metal plate is provided with a peripheral wall 2 to form a shallow dish shape, and a handle 3 is provided so as to protrude laterally from one side of the cover plate 1. is installed. The lid plate 1 is provided with a pair of facing hinge pieces 4 at positions that are shifted toward the center by a required dimension from one side thereof. This hinge piece 4 is made to protrude by punching out a portion with two parallel cuts on the top surface of the cover plate 1.

The handle 3 is made by bending a metal wire into a U shape, and has outwardly bent rotating shaft portions 5 formed at both ends thereof, and the rotating shaft portions 5 are rotatably inserted into the hinge piece 4 of the previous half. In addition, a stopper piece 6 is formed by cutting and raising the center part of both hinge pieces 4, and when the metal wire of the parallel part of the handle 3 is pulled together (see the chain line in FIG. 2),
The rotating shaft portion 5 hits this and prevents the rotating shaft portion 5 from being pulled out.

A pair of opposing locking pieces 7 are provided between the hinge piece 4 and one side of the cover plate 1. The lock pieces 7 are open at their mutually opposing portions, and the metal wires of the parallel portions of the handle 3 are detachably engaged with the open portions.

In addition, a bent part 8 is formed in the metal wire at the part of the handle 3 that extends beyond the peripheral wall 2 and the lock piece 7 on one side, and when the handle 3 is folded on the upper surface of the lid plate 1, it extends from the bent part 8 to the tip. A recess 9 into which the entire area is depressed is formed.

Note that notches 10 formed on both sides of the cover plate 1
is for passing the handle 12 (see FIG. 3) of the inner net 11. 13 is an oil pot.

The embodiment of this invention has the above-described structure, and is placed on the upper surface of the oil pot 13 as shown in FIG. 3, and is used to prevent oil droplets from scattering.

When not in use, shorten the parallel part of the handle 3 to remove it from the lock piece 7, rotate it around the rotating shaft part 5, stack it on the cover plate 1, and drop the tip part from the bent part 8 into the recess 9. (See the chain line in Figure 3).

〔effect〕

As described above, this invention forms the hinge part of the handle at a position offset from the outer periphery of the lid to the center, and a part of the handle is engaged with the lock piece provided between the hinge part and the outer periphery. Therefore, when the handle is folded, there is no part that protrudes to the outer periphery of the lid, and the handle does not get in the way during packaging or storage, making it convenient. Further, when the handle is lifted, the stress acting on the lid is dispersed between the hinge portion and the lock portion, so that the required strength can be achieved with a simple structure.

Another advantage is that no special parts are required for attaching the handle.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A pair of opposing cut-out hinge pieces are formed at a position offset from the outer periphery of the lid by a required distance toward the center of the cover, and a pair of opposing cut-out lock pieces are placed between the hinge pieces and the outer periphery, with the mutually opposing portions being opened. A handle is formed by bending a metal wire into a U shape, and a rotating shaft portion bent outward is formed at both ends of the handle, and the rotating shaft portion is rotatably inserted into the hinge piece, and A lid for preventing scattering of oil droplets for cooking, in which the middle of the handle is engaged with the above-mentioned cutout lock piece.
