Pans and their handles are easy access for toddlers, curiosity is often the cause of severe burns to the face, hand and body.
Pans and their handles are easy access for toddlers, curiosity is often the cause of severe burns to the face, hand and body.
The idea is to have a retractable handle, in order to avoid the curiosity of the little ones as well as the desire for “comfortable” gripping.
When the pot or pan is not in use, the tail of the pan naturally retracts, thus avoiding easy gripping of the little ones but also avoiding the attraction of their glances.
Stove with the retractable handle system, here in the closed position, when the user's hand holds it.
When the user releases the pan, it, by the spring force, opens naturally, to put it in the open position.
Once the handles are folded, they are placed close to the pan or saucepan, thus avoiding the prominence and therefore the interests of young children. To take back the handle, it suffices to pull on one of the two handles, the closing is done simultaneously by the gears, grasp the two handles with full hand and it is thus in the configuration of a normal handle.

Use: when the handles are in the open position, you must pull one of the two handles and the second closes naturally. Grasp the handle with your hand, it will close and act like a normal handle.
When you let go of the handle, naturally, it will open and this will naturally put in the safety position, assisted by one or two small rotating springs.
Advantage: automatic safety, limits storage space, rigid and solid when closed, can be stored vertically through the hole, closed handle, simple and inexpensive.
