[0013]
【Example】
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0014]
(Example 1)
1 to 3 show a gas grill according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
[0015]
1 and 2, reference numeral 1 denotes a grill main body, which has burners 3 and 4 in a grill storage 2. Reference numeral 5 denotes a grill net provided in the inside of the grill storage 2, on which a food 6 such as fish is placed. Reference numeral 7 denotes an oil pan on which the grill 5 in the grill 2 is placed, which can be pulled out from the grill 2 together with the grill 5.
[0016]
A cover plate 9 is removably mounted on both side surfaces 8 which constitute side walls of the grill warehouse 2 and partition the grill warehouse 2 up and down. U-shaped notches 10 and 11 that are open are provided at the front end and the rear end of the cover plate 9, respectively. A cylindrical projection 12 having an outer diameter smaller than the width of the notch 10 of the cover plate 9 is provided at a front end of each side surface 8 of the inside of the grill 2 on which the cover plate 9 is placed. Has a flanged portion 13 having an outer diameter larger than the width of the notch 11 in the upper portion of the cover plate 9 and a flanged projection 15 having a cylindrical portion 14 having an outer diameter smaller than the width of the notch 11 in the lower portion. Provided. The notches 10, 11 of the cover plate 9 are engaged with the projections 12, 15 of the side surfaces 8, and the cover plates 9 are detachably attached to both side surfaces 8 of the inside of the grill 2.
[0017]
FIG. 3 shows a procedure for mounting the cover plate 9. First, the notch 11 at the rear end of the cover plate 9 is fitted into the columnar portion 14 of the flanged projection 15 from the lateral direction, and then the notch 10 at the front end of the cover plate 9 is inserted into the columnar projection 12. The cover plate 9 is attached to both side surfaces 8 of the inside of the grill storage 2 by being fitted from above.
[0018]
Next, the operation and effect will be described. Now, even if a force for lifting the cover plate 9 is applied to the rear end of the cover plate 9, the notch 11 at the rear end of the cover plate 9 abuts on the flange 13 of the flanged projection 15. The cover plate 9 does not come off from the flanged projection 15.
[0019]
For this reason, when the grill 5 placed on the oil pan 7 is lifted in order to remove the grill 5 with the oil pan 7 pulled out, the external frame of the grill 5 touches the cover plate 9 and is inadvertent due to some external force. Even if the back side of the cover plate 9 is lifted, the detachment of the cover plate 9 can be suppressed.
[0020]
Further, even if the cover plate 9 is in a deformed state such as warpage or torsion, and the rear end of the cover plate 9 is lifted upward from the original mounting position, the notch 11 has the flanged projection. As long as the cover plate 9 is fitted to the 15 cylindrical portions 14, only the rear end of the cover plate 9 does not come off.
[0021]
Therefore, since it is not necessary to confirm that the rear end of the cover plate 9 is detached from the flanged projection 15 or is likely to be detached, it is difficult to lean down and look into the interior of the grill compartment 2. It is not necessary to take it.
[0022]
