Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To ensure excellent outward appearance and satisfactory convenience by reducing a step between a counter and a top plate of a kitchen. SOLUTION: A level difference between an upper surface of a kitchen counter 1 and an upper surface of a top plate 4 is flushed with a plate thickness fraction of a body flange 3 of a heating cooker 2 and the top plate 4, and a seal is provided in a space between the top plate 4 and the counter 1. Hereby, the counter 1 and the top plate 4 form substantially the same surface and eliminates unevenness therebetween. Thus, excellent outward appearance is ensured, and cleaning property is improved with satisfactory convenience.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a top plate and a seal structure of a heating cooker incorporated in a kitchen counter.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 4, a heating cooker to be incorporated in a lower portion of a kitchen counter is installed in a manner to drop into an opening 1a provided in a kitchen counter 1 from above.

A top plate 4 of the cooking device 2 is placed on the upper surface of the counter 1 to cover the opening 1a of the counter 1 and the flange 3 of the body, and the top plate 4 is provided with an opening 4a. With stove burner 5
Is installed.

FIG. 5 shows a state where the cooking device is installed. At this time, the flange portion 3 of the body of the cooking device 2 is hung on the upper surface of the counter 1 and is fixed. Also,
A seal 7 is attached to the outer periphery of the top plate 4 to seal a gap between the counter 1 and the upper surface of the cooking device 2.
This prevents water from entering the interior.

[0005]

However, in the above-mentioned conventional configuration, the top plate 4 protrudes higher than the counter, and thus cannot be used as a work space for cooking. In addition, since the top plate 4 has irregularities, there is a problem that cleaning is difficult.

Therefore, the present invention provides a configuration in which the step between the top plate and the kitchen counter is set to the minimum height required for installing the cooking device, and the top plate and the kitchen counter are made substantially flush with each other, so that the appearance is improved. A first object is to provide a simple and convenient heating cooker.

Further, by providing a seal between the upper surface of the kitchen counter and the inner surface of the top plate, the sealing performance is ensured, water is prevented from entering the cooking device body, and the seal is not exposed. Accordingly, it is a second object to provide a highly reliable device having a good external appearance.

[0008]

According to the present invention, a top plate is positioned directly above a flange of a body to be hooked on a kitchen counter top surface, and a step between the kitchen counter top surface and the top plate top surface is reduced. The height is almost the same as the thickness of the body flange and the top plate.

Thus, the top plate can be made almost flush with the counter of the kitchen, and a convenient kitchen can be obtained. In addition, by providing a seal between the upper surface of the counter and the inner surface of the top plate, the sealing performance can be improved. can get.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An invention according to claim 1 of the present invention is directed to a cooking device incorporated in a kitchen having a stove using gas or electricity as a heat source, wherein the cooking device main body is connected to a counter opening of the kitchen. A body to be placed on
A top plate that covers an upper portion of the heating cooker main body, wherein a height from a counter top surface of the kitchen to a top plate upper surface is substantially the same as a plate thickness of the body and the top plate, and the top plate and the kitchen It is designed to provide a seal in the space between the counter and the outside to prevent infiltration of boiled juice from the outside. Can be obtained.

According to a second aspect of the present invention, the seal is adhered to the inner surface of the top plate, and a bend or protrusion for fixing the seal to the top plate is provided as in the prior art. Since the sealing property can be ensured without any problem, it is possible to obtain a heating cooker with good appearance in appearance.

The invention according to claim 3 of the present invention has a structure in which the outer peripheral portion of the top plate is bent, so that the sealability can be secured without exposing the seal to the outside as in the conventional case. Thus, it is possible to obtain a cooking device with a good appearance.

[0013]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1) FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a main part of an outer peripheral portion of a top plate in a state in which a heating cooker according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention is installed in a kitchen.

In FIG. 1, a flange 3 of a body is placed on a counter 1 of a kitchen. A top plate 4 is provided directly above the flange 3 and a seal 7 is formed in a space between the top plate 4 and the counter 1. .

With the above-described configuration, the step H between the upper surface of the counter 1 of the kitchen and the upper surface of the top plate 4 can be made substantially the same height as the thickness of the top plate 4 and the flange 3 of the body. Since the top plate 4 also has no irregularities,
And the counter 1 can be easily cleaned.

(Embodiment 2) FIG. 2 is a sectional view of a main part showing an outer peripheral portion of a top plate of a heating cooker according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention.

In FIG. 2, a seal 7 provided inside the top plate 4 is adhered to the top plate 4. With the above configuration, it is not necessary to provide a bend or a protrusion for fixing the seal 7 to the top plate 4, so that the step between the upper surface of the kitchen counter 1 and the upper surface of the top plate 4 can be reduced. Thus, it is possible to obtain a cooking device with a good appearance.

(Embodiment 3) FIG. 3 is a sectional view of a main part showing an outer peripheral portion of a top plate of a heating cooker according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention.

In FIG. 3, a bent portion 4b is formed on the outer peripheral portion of the top plate 4.
Is provided. With the above configuration,
Since the seal 7 is completely hidden in the inner surface of the top plate 4 and the step between the kitchen counter 1 and the top plate 4 can be smoothly connected, the appearance is improved and the dirt on the top plate 4 is cleaned. In this case, a heating cooker with good workability can be obtained.

[0021]

As described above, according to the present invention, the height difference between the upper surface of the kitchen counter and the upper surface of the top plate is made substantially the same as the thickness of the body flange of the heating cooker and the thickness of the top plate, and the upper surface of the kitchen counter is provided. A seal is provided in the space between the tabletop and the inner surface of the tabletop, so that a cooker with a simple appearance can be provided, and workability when cleaning the tabletop is improved because the step between the kitchen counter and the tabletop is small. The advantageous effect of doing so is obtained.
