Description

Cooking utensils

The present invention relates to a handle for a cooking vessel, and more particularly, by using a pair of upper and lower clamps to enable bi-directional use without distinction between the upper and lower sides, and to facilitate gripping when the handle is separated from the bracket of the cooking vessel. A handle for a cooking vessel.

In general, all cooking containers such as pans or pots used for various cooking, when lifting the container at the time of cooking, in particular, the handle is essentially installed on one side of the outer periphery of the container for the movement of the heated container.

As described above, the conventional cooking vessel handle is a handle installed on the outer circumference of the cooking vessel body, and is provided in a pump type provided on both sides of the container body or a single-handed type installed on either side of the container body.

That is, it is provided as a double-handed handle having a one-sided handles provided on both sides of the cooking vessel body, and a single-handled handle provided in any one side of the cooking vessel body provided in a bag shape having a predetermined length.

Such a two-handed or one-handed handle is manufactured integrally with or separately from its main wall on the outer circumference of the cooking vessel and is fixedly attached to it using binding elements such as rivets or screws.

However, conventional cooking vessels having a positive or single handle have handles provided integrally with the cooking vessels, and in particular, the volume of the cooking vessels is increased due to the handles protruding outward from the outer circumferential surface of the cooking vessel. There was a problem that the storage of the cooking vessel is not easy.

In addition, since the handle thickness of the cooking vessel is thickly provided for the safety of burns, there is a problem that the stacking of the cooking vessels is not easy because the vertical volume increases when the cooking vessels are stacked.

Since the cooking vessel having a cooking vessel handle according to the prior art as described above is not easy to stack and store, the cooking vessel handle allows for easy stacking and storage of the cooking vessel and stably holds and transports the cooking vessel. And the cooking container is required.

In addition, the development of a handle for cooking vessel to reduce the transport or storage volume of the cooking vessel is required, and at the same time a handle for the cooking vessel to facilitate the transport and stack storage of the cooking vessel is required.

Moreover, the handle for the cooking vessel is important to have the convenience of use, the convenience and stability of the grip of the handle so that the safe use of the cooking vessel, it is necessary to improve the handle and cooking vessel for the cooking vessel.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention is provided with a pair of upper and lower clamps can be used in both directions without the upper and lower direction of the handle, so as to easily grip when the handle is separated into the bracket of the cooking vessel. It is an object to provide a handle for a cooking vessel.

In order to achieve the above object, the handle for a cooking vessel according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention in the handle for the cooking vessel coupled to and separated from the coupling hole of the bracket is attached to both sides of the outer wall top of the open top of the cooking vessel, A main body block which is in close contact with each other from the up and down direction of the bracket and is composed of an upper block and a lower block coupled by fastening members; A clamp installed at an inner side of the main body block and configured to have an upper clamp and a lower clamp having respective fixing protrusions fixed to the coupling holes of the bracket from upper and lower sides, respectively; A connection pin connecting the upper clamp and the lower clamp to the shaft such that the pair of clamps can be selectively rotated by an external force; And an elastic member for elastically supporting the clamp in one direction so as to stably maintain the state in which the fixing protrusion of the clamp is inserted into the coupling hole of the bracket.

Here, the fixing protrusion of the upper clamp is closely supported on one surface of the coupling hole of the bracket, the fixing protrusion of the lower clamp is preferably in close contact with the other surface of the coupling hole of the bracket.

In addition, the upper clamp and the lower clamp each includes a fixed rod formed with a fixing projection at one end, and a grip extending inclined from the other end of the fixed rod to facilitate gripping for rotation of each clamp, the fixed rod and the grip A contact bracket of the rotating bracket having a through hole protruding in the thickness direction is inserted into the connection pin is formed.

In addition, the main body block is provided with a clamping space inside the one side so that the fixed rod is installed to be rotated by a predetermined angle, the other side is formed with a communication hole in the vertical direction to grip the grip of the upper clamp and the lower clamp. .

Furthermore, the elastic member is installed in the clamping space so that the fixing projections of the upper and lower clamps can be stably held in the coupling holes of the brackets from the upper side and the lower side, respectively, and correspond to the upper and lower clamps. It is provided as an upper elastic member and a lower elastic member, it is preferable that one side is inserted into the support groove formed on one surface of the clamp and the other side is inserted into the fixing groove formed on the inner surface of the body block corresponding to the support groove.

On the other hand, when a load is transmitted to the grips of the upper clamp and the lower clamp, the clamps are rotated clockwise and counterclockwise, respectively, and the grip is retracted, and when the load is removed, the grip returns to its original position and the position of the grip is elastic. A coil spring inserted along the outer circumference of the connection pin may be further provided to support and maintain the same.

Referring to the effect of the handle for cooking vessel according to the present invention.

First, by providing an upper clamp and a lower clamp, the handle of the cooking vessel can be stably coupled to and detached from the bracket of the cooking vessel to which the bracket is attached on the outer circumference. Can be narrowed.

Second, the upper clamp and the lower clamp is equipped with a top and bottom clamp type, the grip for the removal of the handle of the cooking vessel is easy to grip, and can be used in both directions of the upper and lower directions without the distinction of the upper and lower direction, accordingly, when using the handle for the cooking vessel separately User convenience is remarkably high because there is no need to match the up and down direction.

Third, the handle of the cooking vessel can be stably coupled to the bracket of the cooking vessel by providing the body block, the clamp and the elastic member in a pair of upper and lower, respectively, in particular, each of the fixing projections of the upper clamp and the lower clamp It is in close contact with one side and the other side of the coupling hole of the bracket from the up and down direction, it is possible to maintain a stable state of engagement of the handle.
