Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a lid for a cooker.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, it has been known that a lid used for a cooking appliance is made of a transparent material such as plastic or glass so that the cooking status can be seen through. Among these, lids whose entire lid is made of so-called tempered glass, which is made from plate glass and then heated and then strengthened, are widely used because they have excellent strength, transparency, surface hardness, heat resistance, and cleanliness. .

Conventional tempered glass lids usually have mounting holes drilled through them for attaching lid knobs, and the presence of holes in tempered glass that has such mounting holes reduces its strength. At the same time, in terms of manufacturing, a drilling process is required, which is not necessarily preferable.

The present invention eliminates such problems. That is, the present invention attaches a ring surrounding the edge of the lid main body made of tempered glass to the outer periphery of the lid main body,
This cooker lid has a plurality of locking members protruding from the ring, and a handle rotatably engaged between the locking members.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

Fig. 1 is a front view (partially sectional view) of a cooker lid 1 according to the present invention, and the lid main body 2 made of tempered glass is made by cutting a soda lime-based transparent plate glass into a circular shape.
It is obtained by heating it to 600 to 650°C, simultaneously bending it into a desired shape using a mold, and then rapidly cooling it, for example, by air cooling, as is usually done. A ring 4 made of stainless steel or the like is wrapped around the entire circumference of the edge 3 of the lid main body 2 for the purpose of protection. ring 4
When the ring is attached to the edge 3, a pair of adjacent holes (not shown) are drilled at two opposite positions of the ring above the edge 3 and inside the ring 4. The end portion 6 of the locking member 5 formed of a stainless steel wire rod shown in FIG. 3 is inserted into the locking member 5 to project therefrom. The handle 8 is made of a stainless steel wire rod, has a substantially semicircular arc shape, and its bent end 9 is fitted and engaged with the annular portion 7 of the locking member 5, so that it can remain stationary at any position. When gripping the lid 1, the handle 8 can be held vertically to ensure reliable handling. Furthermore, it can be handled at a high place away from the lid body, which is convenient because it is far away from the heat source so your hands won't be too busy. Additionally, when cooking, all you have to do is tilt it so that you can see through the contents, and if you need to remove the lid during cooking, you can turn it upside down and it will stand still in a stable state. . On the other hand, conventional lids with knobs cannot be placed upside down because they are unstable, and if left as is, it is not only unsanitary but also undesirable as the liquid adhering to the lid will stain the surrounding area. It's not a thing. Furthermore, since the lid of the present invention does not have any protrusions such as knobs during storage or storage, when the handle is tilted,
It is extremely convenient because it can be stacked and does not take up space.

FIG. 4 shows a locking member 10 that replaces the locking member 5 shown in FIG.
1 may be held by winding the protruding portion 11' into a pair of adjacent holes provided on the upper side and inside of the ring, as shown in FIG. Alternatively, the end portion may be inserted after being bent.

The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and can be applied to various lid shapes such as circular, oval, and square, and may be flat in addition to curved shapes.

Furthermore, the shape of the ring is not limited to a substantially C-shaped cross section, and if the container itself does not have an engagement step, a vertically extending regulating wall for regulating its position by the container edge 12 as shown in FIG. ring 1 with 14
3 can also be suitably used.

In addition, it is not necessary to have two handles; one or three or more handles may be used, but one handle is somewhat unstable, and three or more handles are not necessarily advantageous in terms of cost. do not have.

When using two handles, it is not necessarily necessary to provide two annular portions on the locking member, and it is not necessary to provide two annular portions on the locking member.
It is also possible to attach two handles by placing them in different locations. In addition, the handle may be attached with various attachments to make it easier to grip and for design purposes, and its shape is not limited to a semicircular arc, but can be of any shape or size as long as it can be gripped. Of course, it is something that does not exist.

As described above, the present invention is constructed so that the lid made of tempered glass does not have a knob or a hole for attaching the knob, so there is no problem of cracking due to a decrease in strength around the hole, and reliability is improved. At the same time, the entire contents can be clearly observed.
The present invention provides an excellent lid that has many advantages such as not taking up much space during storage and storage.
