Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cooking hob for cookers with radiating electric plates.
  • Known cooking hobs for cookers with radiating electric plates consist of metal sheets, and provide housings for the radiating plates consisting of circular holes with a diameter substantially corresponding to that of the plates which have to be housed therein. The edges of these holes are drawn and have substantially vertical walls.
  • the radiating plate provided with a flange with a slightly larger diameter compared to the body of the plate, rests on said walls of the hole.
  • the plate is attached by means of a cup-shaped counterflange provided with a central hole for the passage of a bolt screwed to the radiating plate.
  • the counterflange is mounted on the lower surface of the cooking hob, and is attached to the plate by means of a tightening nut.
  • the counterflange also consists of a metal sheet, but with greater thickness compared to the cooking hob, to prevent it from deforming when the fastening nut is tightened onto the bolt of the radiating plate.
  • a second disadvantage lies in the complexity of the manufacturing process, which has to include moulding of the metal sheet to form the holes, trimming of the edges of said holes and drawing of the sheet to give it the required shape.
  • the metal sheet forming the counterflange being of greater thickness, has to be drawn separately. It should also be taken into account that the part of the sheet which is removed to form the holes cannot be reused, thus leading to a waste of material.
  • a further problem consists of the laborious efforts involved in mounting the radiating plates on the cooking hob: before screwing the fastening nut of the counterflange, both the radiating plate and the respective counterflange must in fact be centered in the housing hole.
  • the wiring layout is designed in order to adapt to the variable position of the electric terminals of the plates.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a cooking hob for cookers with radiating electric plates which is unaffected by the aforementioned problems.
  • a cooking hob for cookers with radiating electric plates comprising a metal sheet wherein at least one housing is formed for a respective radiating electric plate, characterised in that said housing consists of an area of the metal sheet which is drawn to form a cup, with shape and dimensions substantially corresponding to those of the radiating plate.
  • the present invention it is possible to provide a stronger cooking hob, whose production only requires operations of drawing and not moulding nor trimming of holes, as is however the case for known cooking hobs.
  • the cooking hob is thus less subject to torsions during the machining phase, and has properties of greater rigidity which reduce heat deformations. It is no longer necessary to provide separate parts which, being of different thicknesses, have to be moulded and drawn separately, and complicate the operations of assembly: the latter are instead simplified, since positioning of the radiating plate in the respective housing is immediate, and it is not necessary to pay attention to centering.
  • a cooking hob according to the present invention consists of a metal sheet 20, appropriately shaped by means of drawing operations. Said cooking hob may house only radiating electric plates or radiating electric plates in combination with gas burners.
  • FIGs 1 and 2 show a part of a cooking hob according to the invention wherein a housing 1 is formed for a radiating electric plate 2 (which can be seen in section in Figure 3).
  • the housing 1 is obtained by drawing of the metal sheet 20, and comprises a cup 3, for example circular, whose base 6 is lowered in relation to the surface 4 of the cooking hob.
  • the edges 5 of the cup 3 are instead raised in relation to the surface 4 of the cooking hob to form a support crown 21.
  • a circular projection part 8 is formed on the base 6 of the cup 3 and again obtained by drawing of the sheet 20, which projection surrounds a lowered circular area 9 in the centre whereof a central through hole 7 is provided.
  • An opening 10 (in the shape of a circular crown segment) is also provided on the base 6 of the cup 3 for the passage of electric contacts 11 of the radiating plate 2 (Fig. 3).
  • the base 6 of the cup 3 is therefore substantially closed, with only the minimum necessary number of openings for electric connection and attachment of the radiating plate 2 being formed therein.
  • the position of the electric terminals 11 is predefined and depends on the position of the opening 10.
  • the radiating plate 2 comprises, in a manner in itself known, a base 22, an intermediate circular flange 16 and an upper radiating disk 23. At the bottom of the base 22 the electric terminals 11 are connected, with a threaded tie rod 15.
  • the circular flange 16 has a diameter which is slightly larger than the base 22.
  • the radiating plate 2 is placed in the cup 3 and oriented so that the pins 13 are inserted in the respective holes 12 provided on the base of the cup 3 itself. In this position, the electric terminals 11 project below the sheet 20.
  • the circular flange 16 rests on the support crown 21.
  • the radiating plate 2 is attached by screwing a nut 14 on the threaded tie rod 15, which projects from the hole 7.
