Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to the structure of a handle attachment part of an electric pot, electric heating basket, or other pot-shaped container.

Conventionally, this type of pot-shaped container has a shallow cylindrical body made by bending a metal plate, and a bottom body made by punching and pressing a metal plate is attached to the bottom of the body, and the body is hung from the side. It was equipped with a rotatable handle. However, in this type of container handle attachment structure, a large stress is locally applied to the handle attachment portion, and the body is likely to be distorted. In particular, in the case of a fuselage made by bending a metal plate, a seam is formed in a part of the body, and the handle is attached near the seam. Not only is it unsightly;
The seam is easily distorted by the force applied to the handle.

Moreover, when attaching the bottom body to the body, screws are secured at the corners of the bottom body, but on both sides of the bottom body, due to distortion during molding of the bottom body, there is a gap between the bottom body and the lower end of the body. This creates gaps and makes them look unsightly. Also, this part could be secured with screws, but this raises the problem of increased manufacturing costs.

The present invention has been developed in consideration of the above circumstances, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an excellent structure for attaching a handle to a pot-shaped container as described above.

The present invention fixes a handle receiving member to the side surface of the body, covering the body from its upper end to its lower end, and locks a bent portion formed on the bottom body to the lower end of the handle receiving member. The handle is rotatably attached to the handle receiving member.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

What is shown in FIG. 1 is an electric heating basket as an example of a pot-shaped container to which the present invention is applied.
The electric heat insulation basket has an inner container 2 inside an outer case 1.
A heater 3 is attached to the lower surface of the inner container 2, and a thermostat 4 adjusts the temperature to heat the inside of the inner container 2 and keep the contents warm. 5 is a lid of the electric heating basket, and 6 is a receiving net.

The exterior body 1 consists of a body 8 and a bottom body 9 attached to the lower part of the body 8, and the body 8 and the bottom body 9 are connected together with the legs 10 at the corners by screws as described above. Fixed.

In the present invention, a recessed portion 11 is formed in the center of both sides of the body portion 8, a seam portion 12 is formed within the recessed portion 11, and a notch 13 is further formed at the lower end. , a bent portion 14 bent inward is provided at the upper end. Further, bent portions 15 are formed at the lower ends of both sides of the recessed portion 11, and a long hole 16 is bored in the bent portions 15.

On the other hand, the bottom body 9 has a recess 17 formed in its center, and a horizontal part 18 at the periphery of the recess 17.
is formed. Notches 19 and 20 are formed in the center of both sides of the horizontal portion 18, and a bent portion 21 is formed in the central notch 19.
Projecting pieces 22 are provided to protrude from the notches 20 on both sides.

Thus, the bottom body 9 is brought into contact with the lower surface of the body 8, and the projecting piece 22 is fitted into the elongated hole 16 of the body 8, so that the bottom body 9 is positioned with respect to the body 8.

23 is a handle receiving member. The handle receiving member 23 is fitted into the recessed portion 11 of the body 8, and covers the central portion of the side surface of the body 8 from the upper end to the lower end thereof. The handle receiving member 23 rotatably supports a handle 24 on its upper side surface by a pin 25, and the pin 25 also passes through the body 8.
Further, the handle receiving member 23 is fixed to the body 8 by a screw 26 at the center of the body 8, and furthermore, a boss 27 protruding from the lower part of the handle receiving member 23 is fitted into a through hole 28 of the body 8. are combined.

Furthermore, a locking portion 2 is provided at the lower end of the handle receiving member 23.
9 is formed, and the bent portion 21 of the bottom body 9 is locked to the locking portion 29 through the notch 13 of the body 8. Further, a protrusion 30 having a tapered surface is formed at the upper end of the handle receiving member 23, and when the inner container 2 is fixed, the inner container 2 is positioned by the tapered surface.

On the outer surface of the handle receiving member 23, a shelf portion 33 consisting of an arcuate portion 31 and a horizontal portion 32 is formed below the handle 24. On the other hand, notches 35 are formed on both sides of the neck portion 34 of the pin 25, and the pin 25 is fitted into the handle receiving member 23 so as not to rotate. The handle 24 also has a bearing hole 38 formed of a circular portion 36 and a narrow extension portion 37.

Therefore, when the handle 24 is not in use, the pin 25
The neck portion 34 of is located in the circular portion 36 of the bearing hole 38,
The handle 24 rotates along the arc portion 31 of the shelf portion 33 and is supported by the horizontal portion 32 as shown by the solid line in FIG. Also, when using the handle 24,
When the handle 24 is rotated upward and pulled up as shown by the chain line in FIG. This prevents the container from rotating more than necessary.

Since the present invention has such a configuration, the force applied to the handle 24 is transferred to the handle receiving member 23.
The handle receiving member 23 is supported by the pin 2
5. Fixing part of screw 26, boss 27 and through hole 28
It is supported in three places at the fitting part with the
Since no large stress is applied locally to the body 8, and part of the force applied to the handle receiving member 23 is borne by the bottom body 9 via the bent portion 21, a seam joint is provided at this attachment portion. Even if there is a section 12, the body 8 will not be distorted.

In addition, if the handle 24 is directly pivoted to the body 8 as in the past, when the handle 24 is rotated, the handle 24 and the body 8 may rub against each other, and the surface of the body 8 may be damaged. In the present invention, since the handle is supported pivotally via the handle receiving member 23, such a problem does not occur. Furthermore, even if there is a seam part 12 in the attachment part, the seam part 12
is hidden by the handle receiving member 23, so
Unsightly seams 12 do not appear on the surface.

Moreover, since the bent portion 21 of the bottom body 9 is locked to the locking portion 29 of the handle receiving member 23, there is no gap between the bottom body 9 and the body 8, and the bottom body 9 Even if force is applied to the power cord attached to the bottom body 9, the bottom body 9 will not be distorted or a gap will be formed.

Further, by forming the attachment portion between the handle 24 and the handle receiving member 23 as shown in FIG. 4, it is possible to prevent the handle 24 from hitting the body 8 and damaging the body 8. This prevents the container from shaking excessively when it is carried.

Furthermore, by causing the tip of the locking portion 29 of the handle receiving member 23 to protrude inward from the surface of the body 8 as shown in FIG. 2, the locking range with the bent portion 21 can be increased. Therefore, when forming the bottom body 9 by punching out a metal plate, there is no need to form an unnecessary blank portion, and an increase in manufacturing costs can be prevented.

The present invention is applicable not only to the electric heating basket described above, but also to electric pots and other pot-shaped containers in general that have a shallow cylindrical body and a bottom body.
