A lid for a pressure cooking pot, comprising:
- a lower lid module including an edged lid fitted on a pouring edge of the pressure cooking pot, and a seal sealing the lower lid module when fitted on the pouring edge;
- and
- an upper lid module including a closure unit movable between a first position in which the upper and lower lid modules are locked to one another and a second position in which the upper module is separable from the lower module, and fixing claws coupled to the closure unit and engaging under the pouring edge of the pressure cooking pot, when the closure unit is in the first position, wherein the edged lid has a surface which forms a mechanical interface, when the upper lid module is removed, for receiving another functional part to provide a conventional cooking pot lid for a depressurized cooking pot or a low-pressure cooking pot.
A pressure cooking pot, comprising a lid comprising a lower lid module including an edged lid fitted on a pouring edge of the pressure cooking pot, and a seal sealing the lower lid module when fitted on the pouring edge, and an upper lid module including a closure unit movable between a first position in which the upper and lower lid modules are locked to one another and a second position in which the upper module is separable from the lower module, and fixing claws coupled to the closure unit and engaging under the pouring edge of the pressure cooking pot, when the closure unit is in the first position, wherein the closure unit includes a fixed pin and a slider which is resiliently received by the pin for movement in a horizontal direction, said slider having a first recess for alignment with a housing of the valve to allow a removal of the upper lid module, when the closure unit is in the second position, and a second recess adjacent to the first recess and receivable in a groove of the valve housing when the closure unit is in the first position.
