DE10100370A1 - Frying pan or saucepan has handle held on by bolt inserted through bore into threaded bore in body of pan so that its head is supported by surface on handle, spring being positioned between end surface of handle and pan - Google Patents

Abstract

The frying pan or saucepan has the handle (1) held on by a bolt (5) inserted through a bore (4) in the handle into a threaded bore (7) in the body of the pan so that its head is supported by a surface on the handle. A plate spring, coil spring or leaf spring (8) is positioned between the end surface (12) of the handle and the pan (2).

Description

Stems made of different materials on cookware and frying pans various fastenings are known.

It is mainly screwed to the cookware or roast pan connected stem attachment received. Such cookware is in use usually exposed to relatively strong mechanical influences that affect the Affect the strength of the connection between the handle and the body of the dishes.

Furthermore, the permanent fixation of the handle due to constantly changing temperatures influenced.

The crockery body, which is usually made of metal, and that of plastic or another Existing handles have different coefficients of thermal expansion.

Above all, this can loosen the handle when the cookware cools down to lead.

Another factor influencing the strength of the connection mentioned are so-called Settlements in the fastening that lead to a loosening of the screw connection.

In order to counteract this effect, it is usually the case with conventional cookware between the Screw head and the contact surface on the handle at best a spring washer or a spring washer arranged.

Such spring elements have only one in this arrangement because of their short spring travel insufficient effect.

The consequence is that, at least with a longer period of use, the signs of settlement no longer exist can be compensated.

Based on this, the object of the invention is to attach a handle to one To make cookware that is improved in this regard.

This object is achieved in a cookware with the features of claim (1).

It is proposed that between the wall of the dishes and the end of the handle on the threaded part Slid on spring element (disc spring, coil spring or adapted to the needs Leaf spring) is arranged. In contrast to the above Spring elements mostly under the Screw head are arranged, the proposed spring element has a larger shape and one much longer travel. It can thus larger signs of settlement or other the original relative condition between the handle and the wall of the dishes be compensated.

This arrangement ensures that the handle is supported against the wall of the device.

The spring element can be on the device side directly against the wall or with the Support the threaded part connected to the device indirectly.

The invention will now be illustrated by means of one in the accompanying drawings Embodiment explained in more detail.

Show it:

Fig. 1 an inventive cookware in the assembled state in which the spring element is supported directly on the wall of the device.

Fig. 2 an inventive cookware in the assembled state in which the spring element is supported on the threaded part which is connected to the wall of the device.

The invention is illustrated by way of example using a typical pan with a handle 1 and a dish body 2 which forms an actual pan. The handle is an essentially customary elongated part. The fixing end 3 has a through opening 4 .

In the assembled state, the through opening 4 is penetrated by the screw shaft of a screw 5 . The thread 6 of the screw engages in a counter thread 7 of the tableware body.

The spring element 8 is pushed over the part with a counter thread. In any case, the spring ends are equipped so that they are arranged in a plane extending at right angles to the longitudinal axis 9 of the screw. In this way, a flat support of the spring is ensured both on the device body and on a counter surface of the handle 1 .

The fixing 3 of the handle 1 lies in a spacer sleeve 10 , which is supported with its one end face on the harness body 2 and with its other end face on a stop shoulder 11 of the handle.
