Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a toaster for providing crispy texture and eating quality, that can be felt originally in toasting bread, even in the case of bread with a pattern. <P>SOLUTION: A pattern plate 6 is provided on a stepped surface of a holding member formed on a side of a heater 4 from two sides of the bread. Therefore, the pattern plate 6 does not abut on the two sides of the bread, and a clearance is formed with the two sides of the bread. Thereby, radiant heat for browning can draw the pattern on the two sides of the bread only by shielding of the pattern plate 6, convection heat lets water discharge from the bread 2 by the clearance between the two sides of the bread and the pattern plate 6, and the bread 2 of the crispy texture with the pattern can be obtained. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO

Description

[0001]
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
According to the present invention, when a bread having a sliced flat portion is baked, a burnt pattern is formed on the surface of the bread during heating without impairing the texture and taste.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, this type of toaster has been disclosed, for example, in Japanese Patent No. 3197854 and Japanese Patent No. 3081560. That is, in recent years, the pattern of a character is increasingly formed on a bread surface with a light and dark shade when baking bread. Hereinafter, an example of a conventional toaster for forming a pattern on a bread surface will be described. FIG. 6 shows a toaster in which a holding member 3 on which a loaf of bread 2 is placed is provided in a heating chamber 1 substantially horizontally, and a lower heater 4 is provided below the holding member 3 and an upper heater 5 is provided above the holding member 3. The holding member 3 is made of a wire, and the pattern plate 6 is made to protrude from the upper surface of the holding member 3 by the thickness of the pattern plate 6 in order to attach a pattern to the lower surface of the bread 2 placed thereon. Then, by abutting on the lower surface of the bread 2 and biting into it, the heat from the lower heater 4 is shielded and unburnt residue is produced.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in such a configuration, on the lower surface of the bread 2 against which the pattern plate 6 is in contact, the inside of the bread 2 does not come off and the steam is in a steamed state. The crispy texture and taste obtained by baking and burning were not obtained.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the conventional problem, the toaster of the present invention has a pattern plate provided on a stepped surface of a holding member formed so as to protrude from the pan surface to the heater side, so that the pattern plate is in contact with the pan surface. Instead, it forms a gap with the pan surface. By this, the radiant heat for scorching the bread can be sufficiently formed on the bread surface only by shielding it with the pattern plate, and by providing a gap between the bread surface and the pattern plate, convection heat is generated around the bread surface. The discharged water can be escaped, and the crisp texture and taste obtained by baking and burning the original bread without moisture in the pattern portion can be obtained.
[0005]
BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION
The invention according to claim 1 includes a holding member for placing a pan substantially horizontally in a heating chamber, a lower heater below the holding member, and an upper heater above the holding member, wherein the holding member includes a pattern plate. A toaster characterized in that a step in which a pattern plate forms a gap from the lower surface of the bread is provided on the holding member in an area where the pattern plate is provided, and the pattern is formed on the lower surface of the pan by a lower heater. It is formed by shielding the radiant heat from the surface with a pattern board, and by guiding convective heat to the gap between the bottom surface of the bread and the pattern board, the moisture inside the bread is discharged, and the crispy texture, tasteful finish pattern It has the effect of making bread with.
[0006]
According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, the bread holding member is made of a wire, and a portion where the pattern plate is located is bent toward the lower heater to thereby provide a space between the pattern plate and the pan surface. It is a toaster characterized by having a space, and radiant heat from the lower heater is less likely to be shielded by the wire, and evenly hits the shape of the pattern plate, making it easier to burn the shape of the pattern plate on the bread surface. is there.
[0007]
According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided the toaster according to the second aspect, wherein the bread holding member made of a plurality of wires is detachable from the heating chamber. It has the effect of keeping cleanliness well as a cooking utensil.
[0008]
According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, in the invention of the first or second aspect, a U-shaped or U-shaped claw portion that hooks on a wire of the holding member is provided on a part of the pattern plate, and the bread holding member is provided. It is a detachable toaster, and has an effect that it is easy to clean dirt and clean as a cooking utensil.
[0009]
According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, in the first or second aspect, a pan insertion port is provided above the heating chamber, and a plurality of bread holding members are provided in the heating chamber so that the bread can be inserted in a vertical direction. This is a toaster characterized by arranging in a substantially vertical and vertical direction a scissors with a heater, and has the effect of making bread with a finished pattern of crispy texture.
