Appliance for cooking food under pressure comprising a means for holding a control member in position

摘要

The apparatus has a control unit (15) for controlling locking/unlocking of a lid on a container, moving according to a race and extending between unlocking and locking positions. The control unit is in kinematic connection with a locking mechanism and mounted to move on the lid to move the mechanism and ensure locking/unlocking of the lid. A retractable holding unit (20) exerts holding force on the control unit when the control unit is in the unlocking position. The holding unit exerts return force on the control unit when the control unit is in locking position to maintain locking position.
