Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cooking device.
  • the invention provides a set of parts for construction of a domestic cooker which can be assembled to a pre-drilled countertop, support surfaces being included in the kit of parts to hold cooking vessels above the upper surface of said countertop plate.
  • a simple free-standing cooker comprises an enclosure for the support of one or more gas burners or electric hot-plates, the enclosure having openings, and feet for resting on a heat and water resistant horizontal counter top.
  • Industrial cookers are larger, and are often made with a framework not provided with a metal enclosure.
  • a more advanced cooker is combined with and forms the upper part of a baking oven.
  • Such cooker-ovens are often built to fit into a gap in a kitchen countertop, and may stand either on the floor or on a shelf. Trimming strips may be used to enhance the built-in appearance.
  • a further degree of integration of the cooker into the countertop is based on the cutting of a large rectangular aperture in the countertop above which the installed cooker projects, a flange of the cooker resting on the counter top.
  • a difficulty with this method is that a narrow bridge which is formed between said aperture and the outer edge of the countertop is a source of dangerous weakness, particularly where the countertop is made of a ceramic material such as granite or marble.
  • Yet a further object of the present invention is to provide a cooker while saving the cost of the conventional top plate, yet the user receives a cooker assembled in a top plate which has better durability than that of conventional cookers.
  • the present invention achieves the above objects by providing a cooking range kit for assembly to the horizontal plate, especially where said plate is part of a built-in kitchen countertop.
  • the kit includes a plurality of heater units, energy conduits connectable to said heater units, and controls for said heater units, said plate being provided with apertures for the insertion therein of part of said heater unit, an upper surface of said heater unit arranged to support a cooking vessel projecting, when assembled to said plate, above the upper surface of said plate. Energy connections when assembled are located below the plate.
  • the heater unit is a gas burner, and the energy conduits carry cooking gas.
  • a cooking range kit wherein further apertures are provided for the insertion therein of cooker controls.
  • U.S. Patent No. 3,773,027 Dodd describes and claims a countertop heating apparatus for a domestic cooking unit.
  • This unit includes a drip pan, a planar countertop containing at least one opening, and a heating plate located in the opening.
  • a gas burner is positioned below the heating plate.
  • the drip pan, countertop, and heating plate are advantageously formed of an infra-red transmitting, heat resistant, nonporous glass-ceramic material having a low thermal expansion coefficient and a low thermal conductivity.
  • the periphery of the heating plate is spaced inwardly from the periphery of the opening to allow escape of combustion products and to reduce heating of the countertop.
  • the present invention makes use of the existing countertop material, for example marble or granite or stainless steel, and does not subject the plate comprising the countertop to high temperatures. Consequently no special materials are needed. Furthermore, the hot plate or gas burner flame impinges directly on the base of the cooking vessel, so the inevitable heat losses caused by devices using an intermediate plate are avoided.
  • novel cooker kit of the present invention can be installed by drilling required apertures in the countertop either before the countertop is installed in the kitchen wall or thereafter.
  • Each method has its advantages.
  • Drilling the plate before installation in the building allows use of factory equipment and tools, and a quantity of countertops can be drilled at one tool setting.
  • the drilled plates made of a material chosen to be most suitable, can be marketed as an income-producing item. Plates of various colours for customer selection are offered. Arrangements for allowing the requisite space under the countertop are easily made in a new assembly.
  • Drilling an existing plate after its installation allows marketing of the kit to millions of customers who already have an installed countertop in the kitchen which is to be converted to this new use. There is no problem of colour matching a new plate to an existing countertop.
  • Several features for example the number and position of the burners, and right or left hand controls, can be arranged to precisely suit the requirements of the particular user. Purpose-built power tools can quickly produce the required circular apertures needed to allow installation.
  • FIGS. 1a & 1b There is seen in FIGS. 1a & 1b a cooking range kit 10 , which comprises and is marketed as a set of parts, but is shown assembled in the drawing to a horizontal plate 12 .
  • the plate 12 is part of a built-in kitchen countertop, typically made of a ceramic or similar material, for example marble or stainless steel.
  • the kit includes a plurality of heater units 14 ; FIG. 1a shows three electric units.
  • the heater unit is an electric heating plate, and energy conduits comprise electric cables 16 which carry line-voltage AC electric power.
  • Electric cables 16 are pre-connected to heater units 14 .
  • Controls 18 for heater units 14 are provided on a front plate 20 .
  • Electric cables 16 as assembled are located below the plate 12 .
  • Plate 12 is provided with apertures 22 which have been drilled for the insertion therein of part of the heater unit 14 .
  • the apertures 22 are typically machined on site where the plate 12 is already installed in the wall of the user's premises.
  • a heat-insulating sleeve 24 suitably a ceramic, is shown supporting the heater plate 26 above the horizontal plate 12 .
  • An upper surface of heater unit 14 is arranged to support a cooking vessel 28 projecting, when assembled to the plate 12 , above the upper surface 30 of the plate.
  • FIG. 2 there is seen a single unit 32 of a further cooking range kit after assembly.
  • the heater unit is a gas burner, and the energy conduits 34 carry cooking gas.
  • the burner assembly is secured to a horizontal plate 36 by means of a tray element 38 positioned, on assembly, parallel to and underneath the plate 36 .
  • Fasteners 40 are provided for engaging the tray element 38 to clamp a washer flange 42 of the burner assembly against the upper surface 44 of plate 36 .
  • burner unit 32 - seen in exploded form in FIG. 5 - are the pot grill 48 , burner perforated disk 50 , burner spreader housing 52 , cover cone 54 and burner inlet chamber 56 connected to a copper gas conduit 34 .
  • FIG. 3 illustrates a four-burner kit 60 using gas assembled to a plate 62 .
  • the kit 60 includes electronic ignition, for which a control 64 is provided.
  • Further apertures 66 (not seen underneath the control panel 68 , but similar to the small apertures seen in FIG. 5 ) are provided in the plate 62 for the insertion herein of cooker controls 70 .
  • the apertures 66 are positioned in a formation similar to the burners for easing identification of the specific control connected to the burner 72 to be operated or closed.
  • FIG. 4 Seen in FIG. 4 is a detail of part of a gas burner 74 huilt using a kit 76 which includes means for securing the gas burner 74 to the horizontal plate 78 .
  • the burner includes a burner housing 80 , an upper support seating 82 , and a metal disk 84 . These three parts are shown interconnected by fasteners 86 , but they could be made as an integrated part.
  • the metal disk 84 is connected to a lower tray 88 .
  • the burner head parts and the cooking vessel support are not shown in this figure but appear in FIG. 5 .
  • the kit 76 includes a flexible heat-insulating gasket 90 , suitably made of silicon rubber, which is shown inserted between the gas burner disk 84 and the horizontal plate 78 .
  • a flexible heat-insulating gasket 90 suitably made of silicon rubber, which is shown inserted between the gas burner disk 84 and the horizontal plate 78 .
  • Such insulation is advantageous where the plate 78 is made of a material having poor heat resistance.
  • FIG. 5 shows a plate 92 provided with large apertures 94 for gas burners 74 and small apertures 66 for controls.
  • the plate 92 is for use in combination with the cooker kit 76 ; one gas burner 74 is shown assembled to the plate.
  • the kit parts shown are pot grill 48 , burner perforated disk 50 , burner spreader housing 52 , cover cone 54 and burner inlet chamber 56 for connection to a copper gas conduit 58 .
  • a control panel 94 is shown with four control handles 96 and electronic ignition button 98 .
  • a lower tray 100 holds flexible and rigid gas conduits 58 , 102 , electric cable 104 and a connection 106 for ignition.
  • the plate 92 if so required, is suitable for installation of at least one edge 108 thereof into a wall.
  • the plate 92 is preferably made of a waterproof, heat resistant, non-flammable and scratch resistant material.
  • the plate 92 is suitably made of a natural stone-based material such as marble or granite.
  • the plate 92 is made of a synthetic marble-like material, which is less liable to cracking than natural stone-based materials, or of stainless steel.
