Description

La présente invention concerne une gamme de réchauds déplaçables, réalisable grâce à un ensemble formé d'un caisson et d'un réchaud et grâce à un jeu de caissons et de réchauds pour composer de tels ensembles.The present invention relates to a range of movable stoves, achievable through a set of a box and a stove and through a set of boxes and stoves to compose such sets.

Un appareil de type « réchaud » est un appareil de cuisson à au moins un foyer, qui est déplaçable.A "stove" type appliance is a cooking appliance with at least one fireplace, which is movable.

L'idée initiale a consisté à vouloir réaliser un dispositif de cuisson qui soit à la fois autonome et déplaçable comme un réchaud et qui soit aussi utilisable comme une plaque de cuisson intégrée dans un plan de travail.The initial idea was to want to realize a cooking device that is both autonomous and movable as a stove and that can also be used as a hob integrated in a work plan.

Cette idée nouvelle a conduit à réaliser un concept de fabrication complètement nouveau pour l'homme du métier et à proposer à l'utilisateur une gamme de réchauds tous combinables à un caisson commun ou combinables à une pluralité de caissons identiques.This new idea has led to a completely new manufacturing concept for those skilled in the art and to offer the user a range of stoves all combinable to a common box or combinable to a plurality of identical boxes.

Un appareil selon l'invention consiste en un réchaud de cuisson déplaçable, du type à au moins un feu électrique, caractérisé en ce qu'il est en outre séparable d'un caisson et comporte à cet effet un moyen de connexion rapide étanche et isolant.An apparatus according to the invention consists of a movable cooking stove, of the type with at least one electric fire, characterized in that it is further separable from a box and comprises for this purpose a quick connection means waterproof and insulating .

Pour permettre ces fonctions et permettre l'utilisation du réchaud en position encastrée, il est nécessaire de prévoir, d'une part, les moyens de commande et de réglage sur le réchaud et, d'autre part, de réaliser une ventilation à travers le caisson en ménageant des ouvertures et en plaçant le ventilateur dans le caisson.To allow these functions and to allow the use of the stove in recessed position, it is necessary to provide, on the one hand, the control and adjustment means on the stove and, on the other hand, to provide ventilation through the box with openings and placing the fan in the box.

Ainsi l'invention porte sur un ensemble composé d'un réchaud et d'un caisson, caractérisé en ce que :

  • un réchaud est un réchaud électrique à au moins un foyer, le réchaud est composé extérieurement d'un châssis fermé sur le dessus et de façon étanche par une plaque de cuisson, avec un moyen de connexion rapide disposé sur le châssis, tous les éléments de chauffage et de commande ainsi qu'un ventilateur étant intégrés dans ledit châssis,
  • un caisson est un caisson de réception conformé en cuvette pour recevoir le réchaud de sorte que le châssis s'encastre dans la cuvette du caisson et que le moyen de connexion rapide du réchaud coopère avec un moyen de connexion rapide complémentaire du caisson alimenté par le secteur, ledit caisson comportant en outre une pluralité d'ouvertures de ventilation.
Thus, the invention relates to an assembly consisting of a stove and a box, characterized in that:
  • a stove is an electric stove with at least one fireplace, the stove is composed externally of a frame closed on the top and sealed by a cooking plate, with a quick connection means arranged on the frame, all the elements of heating and control and a fan being integrated in said chassis,
  • a box is a receiving box shaped bowl to receive the stove so that the frame is embedded in the bowl of the box and the fast connection means of the stove cooperates with a complementary quick connection means of the box powered by the sector said box further comprising a plurality of ventilation openings.

Selon un mode de réalisation préférentiel non limitatif, l'ensemble selon l'invention comporte un moyen de connexion rapide du caisson composé de deux prises identiques du réchaud coopérant avec deux prises complémentaires, et identiques entre elles, du caisson, chaque prise comportant trois bornes dont une borne libre et deux bornes réunies entre elles.According to a preferred non-limiting embodiment, the assembly according to the invention comprises a quick connection means of the box consisting of two identical plugs of the stove cooperating with two complementary jacks, and identical to each other, of the box, each jack having three terminals. including a free terminal and two terminals joined together.

L'invention porte également sur un jeu de réchauds et caissons, caractérisé en ce que le jeu de caissons et de réchauds permet de composer une gamme d'appareils de cuisson ayant des modes de chauffage différents par combinaison de l'un quelconque des réchauds ayant des modes de chauffage différents ou un nombre de foyers différents, avec l'un quelconque des caissons, la combinaison d'un caisson avec un réchaud formant un ensemble du type précité.The invention also relates to a set of stoves and boxes, characterized in that the set of boxes and stoves makes it possible to compose a range of cooking appliances having different heating modes by combining any of the stoves having different heating modes or a number of different homes, with any one of the boxes, the combination of a box with a stove forming a set of the aforementioned type.

A titre d'exemple non limitatif on se reporte d'abord aux figures 1 et 2.As a non-limitative example, we refer first to Figures 1 and 2 .

Un réchaud (1) selon l'invention est composé extérieurement d'un châssis (2) fermé sur le dessus et de façon étanche par une plaque de cuisson (3), qui peut être en vitrocéramique, et plane et/ou conformée en creux et en forme de récipient, dans ce cas on dit que la vitrocéramique est moulée en forme de « wok ».A stove (1) according to the invention is composed externally of a frame (2) closed on the top and sealingly by a cooking plate (3), which may be glass-ceramic, and planar and / or recessed and in the form of container, in this case it is said that the glass-ceramic is molded in the form of "wok".

Ce réchaud présente la particularité de comporter par exemple en sous face comme sur les figures 1 et 2 ou latéralement (cas non représenté) une connexion mâle (4), apte à être connectée à une connexion complémentaire femelle (6) d'un caisson de réception (7) (figure 1) ou inversement.This stove has the peculiarity of including for example under the face as on the Figures 1 and 2 or laterally (not shown) a male connection (4), able to be connected to a complementary female connection (6) of a receiving box (7) ( figure 1 ) Or vice versa.

La connexion mâle et la connexion femelle sont les deux éléments complémentaires d'un connecteur rapide, étanche, et isolant par exemple du type de ceux qui sont utilisés pour connecter le circuit de chauffage d'une bouilloire électrique sur son socle, ou par exemple ceux qui seront détaillés plus loin et visibles en figures 8 à 10.The male connection and the female connection are the two complementary elements of a quick connector, waterproof, and insulating for example of the type of those used to connect the heating circuit of an electric kettle on its base, or for example those which will be detailed further and visible in Figures 8 to 10 .

Le caisson de réception (7) est conformé en cuvette et fixé à un plan de travail d'une cuisine, une caravane ou autre, de sorte que le châssis (2) s'encastre dans la cuvette et la connexion (4) du réchaud coopère avec la connexion (6) du caisson. Dans la variante de la figure 1 le réchaud peut être extrait de son caisson en le soulevant vers le haut, à cet effet on prévoit, par exemple sur l'avant de la plaque de cuisson, une partie conformée en forme de poignée (10) pour faciliter l'extraction.The receiving box (7) is shaped as a bowl and fixed to a work surface of a kitchen, a caravan or the like, so that the frame (2) fits into the bowl and the connection (4) of the stove cooperates with the connection (6) of the box. In the variant of the figure 1 the stove can be extracted from its box by lifting it upwards, for this purpose there is provided, for example on the front of the cooking plate, a shaped portion shaped handle (10) to facilitate the extraction.

Le réchaud est de préférence mais non limitativement du type à induction et les figures 3 et 4 montrent que tous les éléments de chauffage (induction ou radiants) (11), d'alimentation (12) de commande (13) et autre composants comme carte mère (14), ventilateur (15), filtre (16), leds (17) sont tous intégrés dans le châssis (2).The stove is preferably but not limited to the induction type and the Figures 3 and 4 show that all heating elements (induction or radiant) (11), power supply (12) control (13) and other components as motherboard (14), fan (15), filter (16), leds (17) ) are all integrated into the chassis (2).

Le châssis (2) comporte des ouvertures de ventilation (20), par exemple à l'avant. On peut prévoir que le châssis repose sur des patins (18) et on peut prévoir un joint périphérique (19) entourant le caisson de réception (7) lorsque le réchaud est intégré au plan de travail.The frame (2) has ventilation openings (20), for example at the front. It can be provided that the frame rests on pads (18) and it is possible to provide a peripheral seal (19) surrounding the receiving box (7) when the stove is integrated in the work plane.

Avec un réchaud de ce type intégré dans une cuisine on peut, si on le désire, sans avoir à acheter d'appareil spécifique, déplacer le réchaud et l'utiliser sur une table en intérieur ou en extérieur, l'utiliser pour des cuissons conviviales comme des fondues, des grillades de viandes ou de légumes, ou de multiples autres applications culinaires.With a stove of this type integrated into a kitchen you can, if you wish, without having to buy a specific appliance, move the stove and use it on a table indoors or outdoors, use it for convivial cooking such as fondues, grilled meats or vegetables, or many other culinary applications.

Pour ce mode déplaçable d'utilisation on prévoit, après avoir sorti le réchaud du plan de travail où il était intégré, de le placer dans un deuxième caisson de réception.For this mobile mode of use it is expected, after taking out the stove worktop where it was integrated, to place it in a second receiving box.

Le deuxième caisson de réception peut être lui-même encastré à demeure dans un autre plan de travail, dans une table roulante, ou autre support.The second receiving box may itself be permanently embedded in another worktop, in a trolley, or other support.

Le deuxième caisson de réception peut comporter en sous face des pieds rétractables ou pliables de façon à être posé au gré de l'utilisateur sur un autre support, dans une autre pièce, sur une terrasse ou autre.The second receiving box may include on the underside of retractable feet or foldable so as to be placed at the discretion of the user on another support, in another room, on a terrace or other.

Selon un autre exemple d'ensemble représentée en figures 5, 6 et 7, le réchaud (1) peut être extrait de son logement par un mouvement de translation horizontal vers l'avant du plan de travail (21). A cet effet, on prévoit sur le châssis du réchaud et sur le caisson des moyens complémentaires de guidage ou de coulissement (22).According to another example of an assembly represented in Figures 5, 6 and 7 , the stove (1) can be extracted from its housing by a horizontal translational movement towards the front of the work plane (21). For this purpose, there is provided on the frame of the stove and on the box complementary means for guiding or sliding (22).

La figure 5 montre le réchaud encastré, la figure 6 le montre partiellement extrait dans le sens de la flèche et la figure 7 le montre complètement extrait de son caisson. Sur cet exemple, les moyens de coulissement (22) sont deux rails de guidage en fond de caisson coopérant avec deux rainures en sous face du châssis.The figure 5 shows the built-in stove, the figure 6 shows it partially extracted in the direction of the arrow and the figure 7 shows it completely extracted from its box. In this example, the sliding means (22) are two guide rails at the bottom of the box cooperating with two grooves on the underside of the frame.

Selon ce mode de réalisation les connexions (4, 6) sont situées à l'arrière du réchaud (1) en position encastrée, et celui-ci est complètement intégrable dans le plan de travail, avec sa plaque (3) située dans le même plan. Une poignée d'extraction (10) et des ouvertures de ventilation (20) sont prévues, dans ce cas de figure, à l'avant du réchaud.According to this embodiment the connections (4, 6) are located at the rear of the stove (1) in the embedded position, and it is completely integrable in the work plane, with its plate (3) located in the same plan. An extraction handle (10) and ventilation openings (20) are provided, in this case, at the front of the stove.

Pour le mode de réalisation des figures 1 à 4 comme pour la variante des figures 5 à 7, le réchaud comporte tous les composants techniques nécessaires à la réalisation d'un ou plusieurs foyers électriques ainsi que les moyens de commande et réglage de ceux-ci, il comporte également les moyens de ventilation (16).For the embodiment of Figures 1 to 4 as for the variant of Figures 5 to 7 , the stove comprises all the technical components necessary for the realization of one or more electric fireplaces and the control means and adjustment thereof, it also comprises the ventilation means (16).

Pour permettre la circulation d'air de ventilation lorsque le réchaud est encastré dans le caisson de réception (7), on prévoit une pluralité de fentes ou d'ouvertures (23) dans ledit caisson, cette ventilation étant indispensable en raison des puissances nécessaires.To allow the circulation of ventilation air when the stove is recessed in the receiving chamber (7), a plurality of slots or openings (23) in said box is provided, this ventilation being essential because of the necessary powers.

L'intérêt pour l'utilisateur est de combiner un même réchaud avec l'un ou l'autre des caissons prévus en différents lieux, cela lui évite d'acheter et d'installer un réchaud dans chaque lieu comme on le faisait dans l'art antérieur.The interest for the user is to combine the same stove with one or the other caissons provided in different places, it avoids him to buy and install a stove in each place as it was done in the prior art.

Par exemple, si la zone (3a) de la figure 1 est conformée en wok, l'utilisateur pourra intégrer son wok dans sa cuisine ou dans une table roulante de sa terrasse.For example, if zone (3a) of the figure 1 is shaped in wok, the user will be able to integrate his wok in his kitchen or in a rolling table of his terrace.

Il pourra également remplacer le réchaud à un foyer-wok par un réchaud à deux foyers ou par un réchaud à un foyer-grill, ou par un autre réchaud de la gamme proposée par le fabricant.He may also replace the stove with a wok stove by a two-burner stove or a stove-grill stove, or another stove in the range proposed by the manufacturer.

L'intérêt de ce concept, pour le fabricant, est de fabriquer un seul modèle de caisson combinable à chaque réchaud d'une gamme de réchauds, ce qui conduit à une optimisation des coûts de fabrication.The advantage of this concept, for the manufacturer, is to manufacture a single model box combinable with each stove in a range of stoves, which leads to an optimization of manufacturing costs.

Bien entendu on comprendra, dans la description et les revendications, que les positions respectives des connexions femelles et mâles peuvent être inversées.Of course, it will be understood in the description and the claims that the respective positions of the female and male connections can be reversed.

On comprendra également que les différents composants électriques intégrés dans le châssis ne sont pas en liaison directe avec la tension du secteur et peuvent être mis sous tension uniquement lorsque les connexions (4,6) sont connectées entre elles car, dans toutes les utilisations, c'est la connexion (6) du caisson qui est reliée au secteur, éventuellement par un cordon amovible ou rétractable.It will also be understood that the various electrical components integrated in the chassis are not in direct connection with the mains voltage and can be energized only when the connections (4,6) are connected to each other because, in all uses, is the connection (6) of the box which is connected to the sector, possibly by a removable or retractable cord.

Afin, d'une part, de fiabiliser et sécuriser ce concept et, d'autre part, de pouvoir obtenir des puissances de chauffage suffisantes pour deux ou plusieurs foyers, la demanderesse utilise des connexions rapides du type de celles représentées aux figures 8a et 8b et qui présentent des bornes circulaires concentriques. Ces connexions rapides sont connues sous la dénomination de connecteurs STRIX ® et comportent des bornes circulaires supportant un courant de 16 Ampères et une borne pour la terre.In order, on the one hand, to make this concept more reliable and secure, and on the other hand, to be able to obtain sufficient heating powers for two or more households, the Applicant uses fast connections of the type represented in Figures 8a and 8b and which have concentric circular terminals. These fast connections are known as STRIX ® connectors and have circular terminals carrying a current of 16 amperes and a terminal for the earth.

Habituellement, on raccorde la fiche centrale à la terre, une borne circulaire à la phase et une borne circulaire au neutre.Usually, the center plug is grounded, a circular terminal is in the phase and a circular terminal is in the neutral.

Pour éviter que les connections-déconnections répétitives endommagent les bornes, ce qui pourrait mettre en danger les composants ou l'utilisateur, la demanderesse a conçu un nouveau type de branchement et prévoit deux prises mâles sur le réchaud coopérant avec deux prises femelles sur le caisson (ou inversement).To prevent the repetitive connections-disconnections damage the terminals, which could endanger the components or the user, the applicant has designed a new type of connection and provides two plugs on the stove cooperating with two sockets on the box (Or vice versa).

Si l'on applique le mode de branchement habituel à un couple de connexions rapides, on obtient le câblage schématisé en figure 9 avec :

  • o côté caisson de réception (7) deux prises femelles (24a, 24b) dont la borne centrale (27a, 27b) est connectée au fil de terre d'un câble d'alimentation (28) branché sur une prise secteur normalisée de 16a, et dont les bornes circulaires (25a,26a) et (25b, 26b) sont branchées entre la phase et le neutre du même câble (28),
  • o côté réchaud deux prises mâles (29a, 29b) sur lequel on connecte en parallèle les sorties d'un circuit de puissance du réchaud. Ainsi, lorsque les connexions mâles et femelles sont connectées, chaque prise mâle (29a, 29b) est branchée entre les deux phases du secteur.
If one applies the usual mode of connection to a couple of fast connections, one obtains the schematic wiring in figure 9 with:
  • o receiving side (7) two female sockets (24a, 24b) whose central terminal (27a, 27b) is connected to the ground wire of a power cable (28) connected to a standard mains socket of 16a, and whose circular terminals (25a, 26a) and (25b, 26b) are connected between the phase and the neutral of the same cable (28),
  • o stove side two plugs (29a, 29b) on which is connected in parallel the outputs of a power circuit of the stove. Thus, when the male and female connections are connected, each plug (29a, 29b) is connected between the two phases of the sector.

Selon le câblage de l'invention, on utilise deux prises afin de séparer physiquement la phase et le neutre dans le câblage, comme cela est schématisé en figure 10.According to the wiring of the invention, two sockets are used in order to physically separate the phase and the neutral in the wiring, as shown schematically in FIG. figure 10 .

Les deux bornes circulaires d'une même prise (24a) du caisson sont réunies entre elles et branchées sur une phase du secteur, les deux bornes circulaires (20b,20c) de l'autre prise (24b) du caisson sont réunies entre elles et branchées sur le neutre, les bornes centrales (27a,27b) restant branchées sur la terre.The two circular terminals of the same socket (24a) of the box are joined together and connected to a phase of the sector, the two circular terminals (20b, 20c) of the other socket (24b) of the box are joined together and connected to the neutral, the central terminals (27a, 27b) remaining connected to the earth.

De même, les sorties (33,34) du réchaud sont branchées en parallèle entre les deux prises (4a) et (4b) d'une part sur les bornes (31a, 30a) réunies ensemble, d'autre sur les bornes (30b, 31 b) réunies ensemble, la sortie (35) restant branchée sur la terre.Similarly, the outputs (33,34) of the stove are connected in parallel between the two sockets (4a) and (4b) on the one hand on the terminals (31a, 30a) joined together, on the other terminals (30b , 31 b) joined together, the output (35) remaining connected to the earth.

Selon ce branchement préférentiel, un court-circuit au niveau des connections est impossible.According to this preferred branch, a short circuit at the connections is impossible.

Les modes de réalisation décrits sont des exemples de réalisation et l'invention englobe toutes les variantes de réalisation équivalentes.The described embodiments are exemplary embodiments and the invention encompasses all equivalent embodiments.
