Definitions
- the present invention relates to a gas burner for a domestic cooking hob of the type comprising a plurality of gas burners for heating food contained in cooking vessels.
- the cooking hobs of the cited type are known and practically available in various forms and sizes in every household kitchen.
- these hobs occur as independent elements in the form of simple burners; in other cases these hobs are sectional elements being apt to be built in on standard size openings obtained on the working top of a sectional kitchen; in further options the above hobs also form the top of a household electric appliance comprising an oven for food baking.
- These cooking hobs typically have circular shaped burners of varying sizes and with relevant pot-holder this pot-holder can be obtained as a single piece, thus serving all the burners available on the cooking hob, or obtained as many elements as the number of burners .
- the cooking hobs In order to avoid a displacement of the pot-holder in its use, i.e. when supporting a vessel during a cooking stage, the cooking hobs have reference points for their positioning and centring on the burner; these references ⁇ usually consist of embeddings made on the cooking hob into which small pot-holder teeth are to be engaged. Due to merely aesthetic reasons, some cooking hobs are fitted with pot-holders, which instead of being in the usual form of a grid, i.e. their central member overlaying the burner being open, have a substantially square flat central area being closed, which partially hides from sight the burner underneath; from such a flat area a horizontal extension, departing from each corner, ends with an upright resting section on the cooking hob .
- pot-holders are all exactly the same, except for their flat closed central part, which can be more or less large depending on the burner size on which they are to be overlapped.
- pot-holders have some drawbacks concerning the burner functionality during the heating stage of a cooking vessel .
- the substantially square flat surface of the pot- holder is such, that the corners of its surface cover at least partially the circular burner, so that the burner flame will partially lick said pot-holder surface causing a partial hindrance to a direct heating of the pan.
- a minor heating power is available with the same nominal burner power, with longer cooking times and higher gas consumption.
- Object of the present invention is to solve the above mentioned problems and in particular to provide for a type of a burner for a cooking hob, in which the flames can directly reach the cooking vessel also in the case of an overlaying pot-holder.
- a further object of the present invention is to solve the above problems also in the event of a pot-holder having a central flat closed area, in particular being substantially square shaped.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide for a pot-holder, whose correct positioning is possible apart from the embeddings on the cooking hob.
- FIG. 1 shows schematically a plan view of a cooking hob according to the present invention
- FIG. 2 shows schematically a perspective view of a burner according to the present invention
- FIG. 3 shows schematically an exploded perspective view of the burner of Fig . 2 ;
- FIG. 4 shows schematically an exploded perspective view of the burner of Fig. 3, with its relevant pot-holder according to the present invention
- FIG. 5 shows schematically a plan view of a cooking hob according to a variant of the present invention.
- a cooking hob according to the present invention is schematically represented in a plan view in figure 1; in this figure, reference number 1 indicates a domestic cooking hob in its whole; reference numbers 2, 3, 4 and 5 indicate four gas burners of different sizes and calorific powers whose, if necessary, can be used with pots, pans and vessels of various sizes for cooking different types of food. Numbers 6, 7, 8 and 9 indicate four pot-holders, each one of them having size suitable for one burner; finally, the controls or cock of the single burners 2-5 are indicates with reference number 10. Each burner can be equipped with a lighting spark plug and/or a thermocouple for verifying whether the burner is on.
- Figures 2 and 3 illustrate schematically a perspective view of an assembled and exploded burner according to the present invention. In the following description reference will be made to only one of the four burners, since the others have the same form and features, but different sizes.
- Reference 2 indicates the burner in its whole, which is obtained according to a substantially known technique, comprising a body 11 arranged under the cooking hob, which the gas supply ducts, a wall baffle element 12 associated to the body 11 and a cap 13 placed on the wall baffle element 12, are connected to.
- the burner 2 can be of a type drawing primary air either above or underneath the top on which it is assembled.
- the wall baffle element 12 and cap 13 are substantially square shaped, with slightly concave sides and rounded corners.
- the cap 13 has some references in its lower section for its positioning on the wall baffle element 12, not represented nor described as being of a known type .
- the wall baffle element 12 has some grooves 14 on its upper edge for the gas outlet and lighting, to the aim of forming the flame for heating the cooking vessel placed on it.
- Reference 15 indicates other smaller grooves with respect to the above grooves 14, each one located between two grooves 14, being apt to a flame propagation during the lighting stage of the burner; only one or more smaller grooves 15 occur in the rounded corners .
- the figures 2 and 3 show how the wall baffle element 12 and the cap 13 are substantially square shaped, with slightly concave sides and rounded corners.
- FIG 4 An exploded perspective view of the burner of figure 3 with its relevant pot-holder, according to the present invention, is schematically illustrated in figure 4.
- Reference 2 indicates the burner in its whole and reference 6 a pot-holder.
- the pot-holder 6 has a box-type form obtained through a pressure die-casting process, having a substantially square shaped central member 16, with slightly concave sides, four extensions 17, each one horizontally departing from a corner of the central member 16 and four upright lengths 18, each one arranged at the end of an extension 17; both the extensions 17 and the upright lengths 18 have a substantially rectangular cross section, internally empty.
- the central member 16 and the upper section of the extensions 17 form the resting plane for a cooking vessel, whereas the upright lengths 18 form the support for the pot-holder 6 on the cooking hob.
- Both the size and form of the pot-holder 6 central member 16 is substantially equal to the size and form of the burner on which the pot-holder has to be placed.
- a rib 16A orthogonally departs downwards on the sides of the central member 16 and extensions 17; each rib 16A has, centrally with respect to each side of the central member 16, an undercut 19 having substantially the same width of the burner 2 cap 13, and a depth equal to about the thickness of the cap 13.
- the undercuts 19 in the number of four each pot-holder, of which only two can be seen in Figure 4 are coupled to the cap 13, they ensure both the positioning and centring of the pot-holder 6 on the burner without requiring any references, such as embeddings of the cooking hob. Such embeddings, which are anti-aesthetic and soil collectors, can also be avoided. In fact, any faulty positioning of the pot-holder on the corresponding burner are easily avoided by virtue of the steps 19A occurring between the bottom of the undercuts 19 and the outside of the ribs 16A.
- the size of the central member of the pot-holder which is substantially similar to the size of the burner on which the pot-holder has to be placed, will cause the flame coming out from the burner to lick the sides of the central member of the pot-holder and directly involve the bottom alone of the cooking vessel rested without any hindrance between them.
- the burner 2 has, in the corners covered by the pot-holder, only one gas passage being sufficient for a flame propagation during the lighting stage, and therefore of a reduced intensity.
- the cooking hob according to the present invention has an improved burner performance during the heating stage of a cooking vessel.
- Interrupting the flames in correspondence with the overlaying portions of the pot-holder is of general utility, also when the pot-holders consist of simple bars, as usual, or even if the pot-holders, provided of closed flat central member, present every kind of profile, if only the underlying burner has the same profile.
- the reference 20 indicates four pot-holders of equal size.
- the pot-holders 20 are substantially obtained by four arms 21 joining each other to form a cross, with an extension 22 orthogonally departing downwards from their ends.
- the arms 21 have the function of supporting the cooking vessel, whereas the extensions 22 have the function of being as spacers and rests for the pot-holder 20 resting on the cooking hob.
- the positioning of the pot-holder 20 with respect to the burner is such to have the arms 21 in correspondence with a corner of the burner, so as not interfering with the flame and being able to utilize the whole burner calorific power for heating the cooking vessel .
- the pot-holders are all able to be similar to each other; concerning their positioning and centring with respect to the burner, it is sufficient to refer to the embeddings of the cooking hob.
