Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a built-in cooking hob for gas, electric or mixed household kitchens.
  • a cooking hob is formed by a container made of sheet-metal substantially including two distinct zones: a first zone being assigned to the heaters and a second zone being assigned to the command elements.
  • Said cooking hob is designed so as to be vertically inserted in a so-called working plane which is usually 3-4 cm thick.
  • heating zone contains the gas burners or the electric plates, or both types of said heating elements, when the cooking hob is of the mixed type.
  • control panel comprises, in the inside, at least the gas taps being contained in the thickness of the same control panel and/or the electric switches and, at the outside, the respective control knobs.
  • the minimum thickness of a cooking hob is determined by the heaters zone, since the latter, besides containing the above cited elements, must also allow for a suitable inflow of the so-called secondary air to the likely burners, for ensuring the complete and correct combustion of the gas.
  • the control panel should not require any particular thickness requirements; considering the limited overall dimensions of the presently available taps or electric switches, the thickness could be not in excess of 4 cm..
  • An edge of the cited cooking hob covers, in a flange fashion, the opening of the working plane into which the hob itself is inserted and is sealed therein for avoiding that leaked liquids can drip to the underside.
  • the sealing can be realized in two different ways: by means of a seal when the cooking bob must be demountable, or by means of mastics when the cooking bob is provided for being inspected from below; mastics have the advantage of assuring a better sealing and of being concealed.
  • the cited cooking hob is superimposed to flanked pieces of furniture, which usually have modular and standardized widths; the module is generally 30 cm and the pieces of furniture being underneath the cooking hobs usually have a width of 60 or 90 cm.
  • the grids for supporting the pans or the plates of the electric heaters result in being utmost flush with the working plane, by inserting them as far as possible within the pieces of furniture.
  • the cooking hob including the control panel zone, is sufficiently narrow to stay within the flanks of a same piece of furniture.
  • the flanks of a piece of furniture being 60 cm width it is possible to contain a cooking hob having up to four heaters, while up to six heaters can be contained within the flanks of a piece of furniture being 90 cm width.
  • Such a solution is not fully satisfactory.
  • the space being available between the various heaters is limited; the need of assuring, on the one hand, a sufficient inflow of secondary to the burners and the difficulty, on the other hand, to allow for a great quantity of the same air to circulate within a cooking hob being completely or almost all built-in, limits the maximal power for the burners; finally, due to said dimensional constraints, the control panel is sometimes (for avoiding excessive encumbrances in plan) in an inclined position and therefore necessarily protrudes out, or it is very close to the heaters, the latter ones being consequently too approached to each other.
  • the second solution being presently used allows for setting cooking hobs which are much wider than the ones previously mentioned, the number of heaters being the same, and therefore without any privation of functionality and aesthetics, but realizing relevant openings not only on the working plane but also on the flanks of the cited pieces of furniture.
  • a first drawback of this solution is that the furniture manufacturer must differentiate his production with a costs increase; another drawback of said second solution presently used is that the cooking hob is not dismountable at the bottom for likely inspections, since this fact is impeded by the flanks of the piece of furniture: consequently, it is necessary to extract the cooking hob when interventions are required and therefore it is not possible to seal with mastics the cooking hob into the relevant seat.
  • the aim of the present invention for built-in cooking hobs provided for being inserted in working plane which is superimposed to pieces of furniture and destined to penetrate at least partly within said pieces of furniture, is that of allowing, without any openings being present on the flanks of said pieces of furniture, the insertion in the latter ones of cooking hobs which requires on the working plane an opening whose width is greater than the internal width of said pieces of furniture.
  • a further aim of the present invention is that of allowing, with the widths of said pieces of furniture deprived of lateral openings being the same, a greater distance between the heaters.
  • a further aim of the present invention is that of allowing, with the widths of said pieces of furniture deprived of lateral openings being the same, a greater power of the gas burners.
  • a further aim of the present invention is that of allowing, with the widths of said pieces of furniture deprived of lateral openings being the same and with the power of said gas burners being the same, a deeper insertion of the cooking hob within the inside of the piece of furniture.
  • a built-in cooking hob which is characterized in that it has a first thickness in correspondence of the heaters zone and a second thickness, being lesser that the first one, in correspondence of the control panel.
  • reference number 1 indicates a piece of furniture, whose flanks are indicated with 2; above the piece of furniture 1 a working plane 3 is arranged.
  • a cooking hob 4 is built in, comprising a heaters zone 5 and a control panel 6.
  • the heaters zone 5 contains the heaters 7, the pan-supporting grids 8, the gas conveying means 9; said means which are contained in the heaters zone 5 and/or the analogous means of one or more electric heaters (the latter ones being not represented in the figures) are preferably standing and/or fixed onto the upper and/or lower face of the bottom 10 of the cooking hob 4.
  • a cover 11 is fixed, by means of known and dismountable means, to the underlying part of the cooking hob 4; the cover 11 can be removed from the inside of the piece of furniture 1, in order to allow for the access, from below, to all components being under the bottom 10 of the cooking hob 4.
  • the control panel 6 is arranged at one side of the of the cooking hob 4 and comprises, on the top, the knobs 12 and, on the lower part, the adjustment and control means 13 being associated to said knobs 12, such as gas supply taps and/or, whenever electric heaters are provided, the relevant switches.
  • Said control panel 6 is preferably, but not necessarily, closed on the lower part by a bottom 10.1, while on the top a cover 14 is provided, being interposed between the cited knobs and taps; for the whole of its perimetrical development, the cover 14 is equipped with a seal 15.
  • the control panel 6 is arranged above a flank 2 of the pieces of furniture 1, but its inside is accessible through the removal of the cover 14.
  • the control panel 6 is completely built-in in the thickness of the working plane 3, which has a thickness not lower than 4 cm, with the covers 14 being completely flush with the upper face 16 of the cited cooking hob.
  • Fig. 1 shows the pan-supporting grids 8 being slightly protruding from the working plane 3
  • the said pan-supporting grids 8 can have the upper edge completely flush with the upper face 16 of the cited working plane 3.
  • the cooking hob 4 once it has been mounted, can be definitively sealed to the working plane 3 into which its is built-in, since all parts are accessible for servicing and maintenance from below or from above, by virtue of the presence of the covers 11 and 14.
  • a first advantage of the cooking hob being the subject of the present invention is realized by the fact that, with a same space between the flanks of a piece of furniture, it is possible to insert a cooking hob having heaters of greater power and/or being more spaced from each other than the prior art.
  • a second advantage of the cooking hob being the subject of the present invention is realized by the fact that, with a same power of electric heaters, the latter ones and the relevant pan-supporting grids can be inserted much lower than, or flush with, the upper surface of the working plane.
  • control panel can be perfectly flush with the working plane and sufficiently spaced from the heaters zone.
  • a further advantage is that the cooking hob can be sealed in a definitive way onto the working plane, also when the parts subject to maintenance or servicing contained in the control panel are not accessible from below..
  • the teachings of the present invention can be used, by mere way of example, for realizing a cooking hob to be inserted in a working plane having a 4 cm. thickness and being similar to the one showed in Figs. 1 and 2, particularly for what concerns the very limited protrusion of the grids, but having four heaters, whose main features can be as follows.
  • the cooking zone 5 of said cooking hob 4 has a width, the control panel being excluded, of 540 mm and a same depth; the inter-axis of the heaters is 270 mm in width and 240 mm in depth; the possible powers for the four gas burners, notwithstanding the deep insertion in the working plane, are 3.600, 1.200, 3.000 e 1.900 Watt respectively.
