Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a cooking hob including at least one griddle plate according to the preamble of claim 1. Further, the present invention relates to a griddle plate according to the preamble of claim 7. In particular, the present invention relates to a Teppan Yaki grill.
- The griddle plate is made of a metal plate. The Teppan Yaki grill also includes a metal plate, in particular made of ferritic steel or iron. The barbecue temperatures are very high, so that the thermal expansion of the metal plate causes a bending of said metal plate. The temperatures in the centre of the metal plate are higher than the temperatures in the outer areas of said metal plate. The bending of the metal plate is unrequested.
-
DE 20 2006 012 631 U1 discloses a griddle plate, in particular a Teppan Yaki grill, which may be a built-in type or a portable tabletop unit. The griddle plate is enclosed by the frame made at least particularly of glass ceramics. The material of the frame has a low thermal conductivity, so that the frame does not reach a too high temperature. -
DE 202 15 979 U1 discloses a cooking plate or griddle plate including several layers. The top layer and the bottom layer are metal sheets. The intermediate sheet is made of aluminium. The griddle plate is subdivided into cooking zones. Between said cooking zones are border zones. In the border zones only the top layer is present, but the intermediate layer and bottom layer lack. This structure prevents or reduces the heat conduction from one cooking zone to another. - It is an object of the present invention to provide a cooking hob including at least one griddle plate and a corresponding griddle plate, wherein the bending of the griddle plate by the heat is prevented or reduced.
- The object of the present invention is achieved by the cooking hob according to claim 1.
- According to the present invention the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the frame portion is higher than the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the central portion, and a join patch connects the central portion and the frame portion, so that the central portion and the frame portion form a rigid body.
- The main idea of the present invention is that at least one griddle plate of the cooking hob is formed as rigid body, wherein the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the outer portion is higher than the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the inner portion. The higher thermal expansion of the outer portion reduces or prevents the pressure from the outer portion to the inner portion, so that the bending of the inner portion and the griddle plate is reduced or completely avoided.
- Preferably, the frame portion is made of metal.
- In particular, the join patch is a welded joint.
- For example, the central portion and/or the frame portion are at least partially made of iron.
- Further, the thickness of the central portion is bigger than the thickness of the frame portion.
- At last, the cooking hob includes at least one Teppan Yaki grill or is formed as a Teppan Yaki grill.
- The object of the present invention is further achieved by the griddle plate according to claim 7.
- According to the present invention the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the frame portion is higher than the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the central portion, and a join patch connects the central portion and the frame portion, so that the central portion and the frame portion form a rigid body.
- The core of the present invention is that the griddle plate is formed as rigid body, wherein the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the outer portion is higher than the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of the inner portion. The higher thermal expansion of the outer portion reduces or prevents the pressure from the outer portion to the inner portion, so that the bending of the inner portion and the griddle plate is reduced or completely avoided.
- In particular, the frame portion is made of metal.
- Preferably, the join patch is a welded joint.
- The central portion and/or the frame portion may be at least partially made of iron.
- Moreover, the thickness of the central portion is bigger than the thickness of the frame portion.
- In particular, the griddle plate is formed as a Teppan Yaki grill.
- Novel and inventive features of the present invention are set forth in the appended claims.
- The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the drawing, in which
-
FIG 1 illustrates a partial sectional side view of a griddle plate for the cooking hob according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. -
FIG 1 illustrates a partial sectional side view of agriddle plate 10 for the cooking hob according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. Thegriddle plate 10 is formed as a metal sheet and includes acentral portion 12 and aframe portion 14. The partial sectional side view inFIG 1 shows the cross-sections of thecomplete frame portion 14 and of an outer area of thecentral portion 12. - The
central portion 12 of thegriddle plate 10 is the preferred area provided for barbecue or broiling. Theframe portion 14 encloses thecentral portion 12. Thecentral portion 12 and theframe portion 14 are connected by ajoin patch 16. Thejoin patch 16 allows a rigid connection between thecentral portion 12 and theframe portion 14 of thegriddle plate 10. Thus, thegriddle plate 10 forms a rigid body. Preferably, thejoin patch 16 is realized by a welded joint. - The
central portion 12 and theframe portion 14 of thegriddle plate 10 are made of metal. However, the materials of thecentral portion 12 and theframe portion 14 have different coefficients of thermal expansion. The coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of theframe portion 14 is higher than the coefficient of thermal expansion for the material of thecentral portion 12. Thus, the thermal expansion of theframe portion 14 is higher than the thermal expansion of thecentral portion 12, if the temperatures of thecentral portion 12 and theframe portion 14 are substantially the same. The higher thermal expansion of theframe portion 14 reduces or prevents the pressure from theframe portion 14 to thecentral portion 12. Thus, the bending of thecentral portion 12 is reduced or avoided. Further, also the bending of thegriddle plate 10 is reduced or completely avoided. - In this example the
frame portion 14 comprises agroove 18. Saidgroove 18 is provided for collecting fat and/or oil. Thegroove 18 is an optional element of thegriddle plate 10. - Although an illustrative embodiment of the present invention has been described herein with reference to the accompanying drawing, it is to be understood that the present invention is not limited to that precise embodiment, and that various other changes and modifications may be affected therein by one skilled in the art without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. All such changes and modifications are intended to be included within the scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
