Description

Frying pan and automatic egg-flipping pan

This new invention relates to a food processing machine, and more particularly to a frying pan and an automatic flipping omelette pan.

When frying eggs, whether manually or automatically, a frying pan is often used. However, the flat bottom of a frying pan easily causes the oil to disperse in the pan and cannot fully contact the frying eggs. Insufficient oil will cause the bottom of the pan to burn, thus affecting the shape, color and taste of the frying eggs. In addition, some frying pans have a bulge at the center of the bottom, causing the oil to slide to the edge of the pan, making it extremely inconvenient to fry eggs.

Therefore, it is still necessary to develop an omelette pan that can solve the above-mentioned problem of frying eggs in a frying pan.

In order to overcome the defects of existing frying pan products, the present invention proposes a frying pan and an automatic flipping frying pan, which is provided with a hemispherical pan surface to make the spatula slide smoothly. At the same time, the two ends of the hemispherical pan surface extend upward with pan walls to prevent oil dripping and splashing during the frying process. In addition, the hemispherical pan surface is provided with an opening, and the frying eggs can be shoveled out through the opening after frying, which is convenient to operate.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, a frying pan is provided, which includes a hemispherical pan surface, at least one side of the hemispherical pan surface is provided with an opening, the center portion of the hemispherical pan surface is concave downward to form a hemispherical shape, a heating portion is provided at the bottom of the hemispherical pan surface, and a heating component is provided in the heating portion.

The above-mentioned frying pan may have an oil guide portion extending downward at the lower end of the opening.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, an automatic flipping egg frying pan is provided, which includes the above-mentioned frying pan.

The above-mentioned automatic flipping omelette pan may include two frying pans arranged alternately up and down.

The above-mentioned automatic flipping omelette pan has a spatula on the hemispherical pan surface, and a driving rod is provided on the upper end of the spatula.

In the above-mentioned automatic flipping omelette pan, the spatula can be an elastic rubber spatula.

The efficacy of this new model is:

1. In this new type, by providing the pot walls extending upward at both ends of the hemispherical pot surface, it is possible to prevent oil dripping from splashing out during the frying process, thereby scalding the user.

2. This new type of pan has a hemispherical pan surface, which allows the spatula to slide smoothly without getting stuck. The oil can gather in the center of the hemispherical pan surface, so that it can fully and evenly contact the fried eggs. After the eggs are fried, they can be scooped out through the opening, which is easy to operate.

In order to fully understand the purpose, features and effects of this new model, the following specific implementation examples and the attached drawings are used to explain this new model in detail. The description is as follows.

As shown in Figures 1 to 5, the present invention provides a frying pan, including a hemispherical pan surface 1, at least one side of the hemispherical pan surface 1 is provided with an opening 3, the central part of the hemispherical pan surface 1 is concave downward to form a hemispherical shape, the bottom of the hemispherical pan surface 1 is provided with a heating part 5, and the heating part 5 is provided with a heating component 51.

When in use, first apply oil or pour oil on the hemispherical pot surface 1, and beat the eggs on the hemispherical pot surface 1. The heating element 51 at the lower end of the hemispherical pot surface 1 fries the eggs in the hemispherical pot surface 1, and the fried eggs are scooped out from the opening 3. A plate or other container for receiving fried eggs can be placed under the opening 3. The hemispherical pot surface 1 in this embodiment has pot walls 2 extending upward at both ends, which can prevent oil from splashing out during the frying process, scalding the user, or contaminating other mechanisms near the frying pan.

In other embodiments, the hemispherical pot surface 1 is provided with a pot wall 2 extending upward on all sides except one side of the opening 3, thereby preventing oil droplets from splashing out in a more comprehensive manner. In other embodiments, the hemispherical pot surface 1 may be provided without any pot wall 2 extending upward, and an oil baffle is provided outside the frying pan separately from the frying pan. The advantage of this choice is that in the production process of the frying pan itself, only the hemispherical pot surface 1 and the heating part located below the hemispherical pot surface 1 need to be formed, and there is no need to press and bend the hemispherical pot surface 1 to form the pot wall 2, which greatly reduces the process steps and production cost of the frying pan.

As shown in Figures 2 to 5, the center of the frying pan of the present invention is concave downward to form a hemispherical pan surface 1. Whether viewed from the front or side of the frying pan, the center of the frying pan for frying eggs is always at the lowest position of the arc surface in the cross-sectional view. Therefore, when pouring oil on the frying pan, the poured oil will flow along the arc surface to the lowest position. Since the lowest point of the arc surface shown in the side view and the front view of the frying pan is at the center, the oil in the frying pan will flow along the arc surface to the center of the frying pan and stay in the frying pan. Similarly, when beating eggs on the frying pan, the egg liquid will also flow along the arc surface to the center of the frying pan, that is, as shown in Figure 2, the egg will be formed in the circle shown by the dotted line of the hemispherical pan surface 1 in the figure, so the fried egg will show a regular and round shape, which is both beautiful and good-looking, and prevents the fried egg from sticking to the bottom of the pan due to the small amount of oil at the frying position, affecting the beauty. The new invention provides a hemispherical pan surface 1, so that the fried egg is more complete and beautiful, the frying effect is good, and the taste and beauty of the fried egg are improved, thereby improving people's appetite.

As shown in FIG. 6 , when the frying pan of the present invention is placed in an appropriate upper and lower position, the frying pan can be automatically turned over to fry eggs, thereby forming an automatically turned over frying pan. The frying pan of the present invention is used to fry eggs with a spatula 6. A driving rod 61 is provided at the upper end of the spatula 6. The driving rod 61 can be manually pushed to make the spatula 6 move on the hemispherical pan surface 1. The frying pan 6 can slide back and forth on the hemispherical pot surface 1, or it can be connected to one end of the driving rod 61 by a motor, thereby driving the spatula 6 to automatically slide back and forth on the hemispherical pot surface 1. The frying pan includes two frying pans arranged alternately up and down. After the egg is fried on one side in the frying pan located at the upper side, the egg is dropped through the opening 3 and dropped into the other frying pan located at the lower side. The egg is automatically turned over, and when it is cooked, the fried egg is scooped out from the frying pan at the bottom and falls into the container for collecting fried eggs. It should be noted that the shovel 6 can be used to scoop the fried eggs in the frying pan, or a push rod can be set to push the fried eggs to the opening 3 and drop them. By setting the upper and lower position relationship of the frying pan that can achieve automatic turning, the degree of automation of the frying process is higher, the labor cost is reduced, and it is suitable for promotion. In addition, since the lower end of the frying pan opening 3 is provided with an oil guide part 31, when the shovel 6 pushes the fried egg in the upper frying pan to fall into the lower frying pan, the oil in the upper frying pan flows to the lower frying pan through the oil guide part 31 to replenish the oil in the lower frying pan, saving the use of the overall amount of oil in the frying process and saving costs.

It should be noted that in order to prevent the eggs from piling up into a lump after falling, it is necessary to control the frying time to control the hardness of the omelette and the speed of the spatula 6 pushing the eggs out of the pan. When the omelette is harder, you can push the eggs slowly. When the omelette is softer but the surface of the egg must be solid, you can push the eggs quickly, so that the omelette falls and does not pile up into a lump.

The spatula 6 in the embodiment of the present invention is elastic, and a variety of elastic spatulas 6 such as a rubber spatula or a thin metal spatula can be used. The spatula 6 in the present invention is a rubber spatula. When in use, the lower end of the spatula 6 is elastically pressed on the hemispherical pot surface 1. When the spatula 6 is moved to scoop eggs, the lower end of the spatula 6 always moves closely against the hemispherical pot surface 1 to prevent the fried eggs from sticking to the bottom of the pot when scooping eggs, resulting in incomplete pushing out or the egg shape being destroyed by the spatula 6.

The lower end of the opening 3 in the new embodiment is provided with an oil guide portion 31 extending downward. When the oil is pushed to the opening 3 by the spatula 6 along with the fried eggs, the oil can form oil drops and fall at the lower end of the oil guide portion 31, thereby avoiding the situation that when there is no oil guide portion 31, the oil will flow along the lower end of the opening 3 to the bottom of the frying pan. When the oil guide portion 31 is not present, the oil will form oil crusts on the bottom of the pan after passing through the heating surface for a long time. When it reaches a certain thickness and hardness, it will fall into the egg receiving container below, causing the fried eggs to be unhygienic, thereby affecting people's health.

When using the frying pan of the present invention, oil is applied or poured on the hemispherical pot surface 1, and eggs are beaten on the top of the hemispherical pot surface 1. The eggs in the hemispherical pot surface 1 are fried through the heating component 51 provided in the heating part 5 at the lower end of the hemispherical pot surface 1, and the fried eggs are scooped out from the opening 3 after being fried. A plate or other container for receiving fried eggs can be placed below the opening 3. Through the coordinated use of the hemispherical pot surface 1 and the opening 3, the shovel slides smoothly without getting stuck, so it is convenient to use. In addition, the pot wall 2 extending upward from both ends of the hemispherical pot surface 1 can prevent oil from splashing out during the frying process, thereby scalding the user, and is safe.

The present invention has been disclosed in the above text with a preferred embodiment, but those familiar with the art should understand that the embodiment is only used to describe the present invention and should not be interpreted as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that all changes and substitutions equivalent to the embodiment should be included in the scope of the present invention.
