Description

【０００１】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、コンロ本体の上部に設けられた天板に備える飾り枠に関する。
【０００２】
【従来の技術】
システムキッチンに取り付けられるビルトイン式コンロにおいては、例えば、下記特許文献１に見られるように、ガラス等により平坦に形成された面板と、該面板の外周に設けられた飾り枠とからなる天板を有するものが知られている。
【０００３】
この種のコンロに備える飾り枠３２は、図１４に示すように、互いに連結された４本の同一形状の桟３３からなり、面板３４外周に額縁状に設けられる。互いに隣り合う桟３３は、見栄え良く角部が形成されるように、４５°の傾斜角をもって切欠かれた端縁同士による当接部３５を形成している。
【０００４】
しかし、面板３４を飾り枠３２によって囲うものにおいては、飾り枠３２が目立って面板３４の面積が視覚的に狭く感じる場合がある。また、前記当接部３５においては、桟３３に歪みが生じたときや、連結状態の精度が低下していたときには、図１５に示すように当接部３５に隙間が生じたり、図１６に示すように角部の先端３６に位置ズレが生じ、飾り枠３２の美観が低下するといった不都合があった。しかも、当接部３５は図１４に示すように、平面視状態で露出しており、調理の際に煮汁等が飾り枠の角部上に零れ落ちた場合には、当接部３５の間に煮汁等の汚れが付着しやすく、汚れ落としが煩わしい不都合がある。
【０００５】

特開２００２−１３７３９号公報（図３、図４）
【０００６】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
かかる不都合を解消して、本発明は、飾り枠による天板の美観の低下を防止することができ、更に、連結状態を確実に維持して組立容易な飾り枠を提供することを目的とする。
【０００７】
【課題を解決するための手段】
かかる目的を達成するために、本発明は、コンロ本体の上面開口を覆う面板の外周に設けて該面板と共にコンロの天板を構成する飾り枠において、面板の左右側縁に沿って延びる左右一対の側桟と、両側桟の前端部に連結されて面板の前側縁に沿って延びる前桟と、両側桟の後端部に連結されて面板の後側縁に沿って延びる後桟とからなり、前記前桟は、面板の前端部下面に沿って略水平に延びる前部水平板部と、該前部水平板部の外縁から面板の前端縁に沿って略垂直に起立する前部垂直板部と、該前部垂直板部の上縁から前方に延びる前部縁面板部とを備え、前記側桟は、面板の側端部下面に沿って略水平に延びる側部水平板部と、該側部水平板部の外縁に沿って略垂直に設けられた薄板状の側部垂直板部とを備えることを特徴とする。
【０００８】
本発明によれば、前記面板の両側に沿って延びる側桟が薄板状の側部垂直板部を備えることにより、側桟が目立たず面板を広く見せることができる。また、前桟と側桟とが連結されたとき、側桟の前端部と前桟の前記前部縁面板部とが当接して飾り枠の角部を構成する。このとき、前部縁面板部の両端に側部垂直板部の先端部が当接状態とさていても、その当接部分の位置ズレや隙間が比較的目立たないので、天板の外観を良好とすることができる。
【０００９】
また、本発明において、前記側部垂直板部の前端部は、前記前部縁面板部の裏面形状に対応する形状に形成され、該側部垂直板部の前端部の板厚面が前記前部縁面板部の裏面側に非露出状態で当接されていることを特徴とする。
【００１０】
本発明によれば、側部垂直板部の板厚面は前部縁面板部の裏面側に非露出状態で当接される。これにより、飾り枠の角部における前桟と側桟との当接部分は、万一位置ズレや隙間が生じていても、前部縁面板部によって覆い隠されて、コンロ上部の美観を向上させることができる。しかも、調理の際に煮汁等が飾り枠の角部に零れ落ちても、前桟と側桟との当接部分が前部縁面板部の裏面側に位置するので、煮汁等の汚れの付着を小とすることができる。
【００１１】
前記側桟の前端部と前記前桟の側端部とは互いに係合する係合部を備えることを特徴とする。このとき、該係合部の一態様として、前記係合部は、前記側桟の前端部の一部を上下方向に切欠いて形成された凹部と、前記前桟の前記前部縁面板部の下方に突出して前記凹部に係合する爪部とによって構成されていることが挙げられる。また、前記係合部の他の態様として、前記係合部は、前記側桟の前端から後方に切欠いて形成された凹部と、前記前桟の前記前部縁面板部から後方に突出して前記凹部に係合する爪部とによって構成されていることが挙げられる。前記第１及び第２の態様により、前桟の前後方向の位置ズレや、前部水平板部に荷重がかかった際の前部縁面板部の揺動方向の位置ズレが防止でき、前桟の前部縁面板部と側桟の前端部との間に隙間が生じるのを防止して前桟と側桟との一体的な連結状態を維持することができる。
【００１２】
また、前記係合部の他の態様として、前記係合部は、前記側桟の前端部の内面、又は前記前桟の前記前部縁面板部の裏面の何れか一方に突出する凸部と、他方に形成され該凸部が係合する凹部とによって構成されていることが挙げられる。これによっても、前桟の前後方向の位置ズレや、前部水平板部に荷重がかかった際の前部縁面板部の揺動方向の位置ズレが防止でき、前桟と側桟との一体的な連結状態を良好に維持することができる。
【００１３】
また、本発明において、前記前桟と前記側桟とは、前記前部水平板部と前記側部水平板部とにおいて互いに連結部を介して連結され、該連結部は、一方の水平板部の端部に水平方向に突設された係合凸部が、該凸部に対応して他方の水平板部の端部に水平方向に切欠形成された係合凹部に圧入されることにより両水平板部と同一平面上に形成されていることを特徴とする。互いに隣り合う水平板部が係合凹部に係合凸部を圧入することによって加締め連結されることにより、水平板部に連結部が設けられても、該連結部を両水平板部と同一平面上に平坦に形成することができる。そして、係合凸部と係合凹部との連結により前桟と側桟との水平方向の外れを確実に防止することができる。更に、各水平板部は面板の下面に沿って当接するので、面板により各水平板部の浮き上がりが防止され、前桟と側桟との連結を強固に維持することができる。
【００１４】
また、本発明において、前記側桟は、その前端部と後端部とが同一形状に形成されており、前記後桟は、前記前桟と同一形状に形成されていることを特徴とする。前記後桟を前記前桟と同一形状に形成することにより、後桟と側桟との当接部分においても見栄えよく形成することができ、一体的な連結状態を良好に維持することができる。
【００１５】
また、本発明において、前記後桟は、面板の後端部下面に沿って略水平に延びる後部水平板部と、該後部水平板部の外縁に沿って略垂直に設けられた薄板状の後部垂直板部とを備えることを特徴とする。これにより、前記後桟においても、前記側桟と同様に後桟を目立たなくして面板を広く見せることができる。
【００１６】
また、本発明においては、前記後桟を、前記両側桟の後部中間に連結された第１後桟片と、該第１後桟片から所定の間隔を存して前記両側桟の後端部に連結された第２後桟片とにより構成することができる。このとき、前記第１後桟片を、面板の後端部下面に沿って略水平に延びる後部水平板部と、該後部水平板部の外縁から面板の後端縁に沿って略垂直に起立する後部垂直板部とを備える構成とすることで、前記側桟と同様に第１後桟片を目立たなくすることができる。
【００１７】
このとき、前記第２後桟片は、略垂直に設けられた薄板状の後部垂直板部とを備えていてもよく、また、後方に延出する後部縁面板部を備えていてもよい。
【００１８】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明の一実施形態を図面に基づいて説明する。図１は本実施形態のコンロの天板を示す説明的平面図、図２は本実施形態における飾り枠の平面図、図３は図２のＩＩＩ−ＩＩＩ線断面図、図４は図２のＩＶ−ＩＶ線断面図、図５は図２のＶ−Ｖ線断面図、図６は本実施形態における飾り枠の前部の連結部を示す説明的斜視図、図７は本実施形態における飾り枠の後部の連結部を底面視して示す説明図、図８は本実施形態における飾り枠の要部の説明的側面図、図９乃至図１１は他の形態における飾り枠の要部の説明的側面図、図１２は他の形態における飾り枠の要部の説明的平面図、図１３は他の形態における飾り枠の要部の分解説明図である。
【００１９】
本実施形態のコンロ１は、図１及び図３に示すように、コンロ本体１ａがシステムキッチンのカウンタートップＫに取り付けられるビルトイン式であり、コンロ本体１ａの上面開口１ｂには、カウンタートップＫ上に露出する面板３と飾り枠４とからなる天板２が設けられている。
【００２０】
面板３は、例えばガラス等によって平坦に形成されており、バーナ（図示せず）が露出するバーナ用開口５が複数形成されている。該面板３の外周縁に沿ってその全周には、前記飾り枠４が取り付けられている。
【００２１】
飾り枠４は、図２に示すように、左右一対の側桟６と、両側桟６の前端部に連結された前桟７とを備えている。また、両側桟６の後の中間部には、面板３の後側縁に接して延びる第１後桟片８と、該第１後桟片８から所定間隔を存して更に後方の両側桟６の後端部に位置する第２後桟片９とが連結されている。即ち、本実施形態においては、第１後桟片８と第２後桟片９とによって後桟が構成されている。側桟６、前桟７、第１後桟片８、及び第２後桟片９は、何れもアルミニウム製の引き抜き材によって構成されている。
【００２２】
図１及び図２に示すように、面板３は、前桟７、両側桟６及び第１後桟片８によって包囲されるようにして取り付けられる。第１後桟片８と第２後桟片９との間にはバーナの燃焼時の吸気或いはグリルの排気のための開口１０が形成されている。本実施形態では、第１後桟片８が開口１０を覆うフード８ａを備えている。
【００２３】
前桟７は、図３に示すように、面板３の前端部下面に沿って水平に延びる前部水平板部１１と、該前部水平板部１１の外縁から面板３の前端縁に沿って起立する前部垂直板部１２とを備えている。更に、該前部垂直板部１２の上縁から前方に延びてカウンタートップＫに接する前部縁面板部１３が一体に連設されている。本実施形態では、前部縁面板部１３は前部垂直板部１２の上縁から湾曲しながら下方に傾斜する形状に形成されている。
【００２４】
両側桟６は互いに左右対称に形成され、図４に示すように、一方の側桟６については、面板３の側端部下面に沿って水平に延びる側部水平板部１４と、該側部水平板部１４の外縁に沿った側部垂直板部１５とを備えている。この側部垂直板部１５は薄板状で、前述の前桟７の前部縁面板部１３の幅（例えば、本実施形態では２０ｍｍ）に対して極めて幅狭（例えば、本実施形態では１ｍｍ）となっている。なお、側部垂直板部１５の下側部は強度確保のため図４中において破線で示すように内側に厚みをもって形成することが好ましい。
【００２５】
また、側部垂直板部１５の上端１５ａは、前桟７の前部縁面板部１３の上端１３ａ（図３示）と同じ高さに形成され、側部垂直板部１５の下端１５ｂは前部縁面板部１３の下端１３ｂ（図３示）と同一平面上となる位置に形成されている。なお、他方の側桟６についても同様の構成とされている。
【００２６】
第１後桟片８は、図５に示すように、面板３の後端部下面に沿って水平に延びる後部水平板部１６と、該後部水平板部１６の外縁から面板３の後側端縁に沿って起立する後部垂直板部１７とを備え、後部垂直板部１７の上縁から開口１０を覆うようにフード８ａが延びている。第２後桟片９は、前桟７と略同様の構成であり、後部水平板部９ａと、後部垂直板部９ｂと、後部縁面板部９ｃとを備えて、側桟６の後端部に連結されている。
【００２７】
前桟７と側桟６とは、図６に示すように、前部水平板部１１と側部水平板部１４との連結部１８により一体的に連結される。該連結部１８は、一方の水平板部１４（又は１１）に形成された係合凸部２０が他方の水平板部１１（又は１４）に形成された係合凹部２１に圧入されて所謂加締め連結されることによって形成されている。これにより、連結部１８は平坦に形成されて両水平板部１１，１４と同一平面を構成するすることができ、連結部１８は面板３の下面に密着するので、面板３への安定した組み付け状態を得ることができる。
【００２８】
また、図７に底面示するように、側桟６と第１後桟片８とは、前記連結部１８と同様に構成された連結部１９によって加締め連結されている。更に、側桟６と第２後桟片９との連結部２２は、側桟６の側部水平板部１４と第２後桟片９の後部水平板部９ａとを略Ｌ字状の連結部材２３によって連結することで形成されている。前桟７、側桟６、及び第１後桟片８は面板３の周囲で、面板３との間にコーキング材Ｃ（図５参照）が充填されて固められるので、連結部１８，１９の圧入加締めでよいが、第２後桟片９は面板３へのコーキングが施されないので、連結部２２の連結部材２３により側桟６に連結されるのが好ましい。
【００２９】
また、図８に示すように、側桟６の前端部２４は、前桟７の前部縁面板部１３に対応して上縁が傾斜する形状とされている。そして、側桟６の前端部２４の板厚面２４ａは前部縁面板部１３の裏面側に当接されている。これにより、側桟６の前端部２４の板厚面２４ａは前部縁面板部１３によって覆い隠されるので平面視状態では露出されず（図１又は図２参照）、側桟６の前端部２４の板厚面２４ａと前部縁面板部１３の裏面との当接部分に僅かに位置ズレが生じていても、飾り枠４の美観を損ねることはない。しかも、この当接部分は前部縁面板部１３の裏面側に位置するので、前部縁面板部１３上に調理物の煮汁等が零れ落ちても、当接部分への汚れの付着を小とすることができる。
【００３０】
また、前記側桟６の前端部２４と前記前桟７の側端部とを後述する係合部によって係合させることが好ましい。即ち、図９に示すように、側桟６の前端部２４の一部を上下方向に切欠いて凹部２５を形成しておき、前部縁面板部１３の後端部から下方に突出する爪部２６（本実施形態においては前部垂直板部１２の一部が爪部２６として形成される）を設けることで、凹部２５に爪部２６を係合させて係合部とし、前桟７の前後方向の位置ズレや、前部水平板部１１に荷重がかかった際の前部縁面板部１３の揺動方向の位置ズレを防止することができる。
【００３１】
更に、図１０に示すように、爪部２６の先端に爪部２６と交差する方向の突起２７を設け、凹部２５もこれに合わせた形状とし、この内縁に突起２７を係合させるようにしてもよい。これにより、凹部２５への爪部２６の係合を一層確実とすることができる。
【００３２】
また、図１１に示すように、側桟６の前端部２４の下縁部を切欠いて凹部２８を形成すると共に、前部縁面板部１３の前端部に後方に突出する爪部２９を設け、該爪部２９を凹部２８に係合させて係合部とすることにより、前桟７の上方向への位置ズレが防止できる。そして、前桟７の前部縁面板部１３と側桟６の前端部２４との間に隙間が生じるのを確実に防止することができる。
【００３３】
また、本実施形態においては、側桟６の前端部２４の板厚面２４ａが前桟７の前部縁面板部１３の裏面側に当接して、側桟６の前端部２４の板厚面２４ａが露出しない構成のものを示したが、それ以外に、図１２に示すように、側桟６の前端部２４を前桟７の前部縁面板部１３の側縁に当接させてもよい。この場合には、図１３に示すように、側桟６の前端部２４の内面に凸部３０を形成すると共に、前部縁面板部１３の前端部を後方に折り曲げて凹部３１を形成し、該凸部３０を凹部３１に係合させて係合部とすることにより、前桟７の上方向への位置ズレが防止できる。なお、第２後桟片９と側桟６との連結構造及び係止構造は、前桟７と側桟６との上記した連結構造及び係止構造が適用できる。
【００３４】
また、本実施形態においては、後桟を第１後桟片８と第２後桟片９とによって構成したものを挙げたが本発明における後桟はこれに限るものではない。例えば、開口１０を設けない場合には、図示しないが、前桟７と同一形状の単一の後桟を設けて前後において対称に構成してもよい。この場合にも、後桟と側桟６との連結構造及び係止構造は、前桟７と側桟６との上記した連結構造及び係止構造が適用される。また、フード８ａのない第１後桟片８相当の後部水平板部と後部垂直板部とによって構成された単一の後桟を設けてもよい。
【００３５】
なお、面板３としては、アルミニウム板のような金属板を適用することもできる。また、面板３を例えば暗赤色のような暗調子としたとき、側桟６もアルマイト処理等により同色とし、前桟７、後桟をアルマイト処理等で明調子とすると、左右の広がりを一層印象的とすることができる。

[0005]
[Patent Document 1]
JP-A-2002-13739 (FIGS. 3 and 4)
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a decorative frame which can prevent the deterioration of the appearance of the top plate due to the decorative frame, and can easily maintain the connected state, and can be easily assembled. .
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve this object, the present invention provides a decorative frame that is provided on the outer periphery of a face plate that covers the upper opening of a stove body and that forms a top plate of the stove together with the face plate. A side crosspiece, a front crosspiece connected to the front ends of both side crossings and extending along the front side edge of the face plate, and a rear crosspiece connected to the rear ends of both side crossings and extending along the rear side edge of the face plate. A front horizontal plate extending substantially horizontally along a lower surface of a front end of the face plate; and a front vertical plate standing substantially vertically from an outer edge of the front horizontal plate along a front end edge of the face plate. And a front edge face plate portion extending forward from an upper edge of the front vertical plate portion, and the side crosspiece is a side horizontal plate portion extending substantially horizontally along a lower surface of a side end of the face plate, And a thin plate-shaped side vertical plate provided substantially vertically along the outer edge of the side horizontal plate.
[0008]
According to the present invention, since the side crosspieces extending along both sides of the face plate include the thin vertical side plate portions, the side crosspieces can be made inconspicuous and the face plate can be seen wide. When the front crosspiece and the side crosspiece are connected, the front end of the side crosspiece and the front edge face plate portion of the front crosspiece come into contact with each other to form a corner of the decorative frame. At this time, even if the end portions of the side vertical plate portions are in contact with both ends of the front edge plate portion, the positional deviation and the gap of the contact portions are relatively inconspicuous, so that the appearance of the top plate is reduced. Good.
[0009]
Further, in the present invention, a front end of the side vertical plate portion is formed in a shape corresponding to a back surface shape of the front edge plate portion, and a plate thickness surface of a front end portion of the side vertical plate portion is the front surface. It is characterized in that it is abutted on the rear surface side of the edge surface plate in a non-exposed state.
[0010]
According to the present invention, the plate thickness surface of the side vertical plate portion abuts on the back surface side of the front edge plate portion in a non-exposed state. As a result, even if a misalignment or a gap occurs, the contact portion between the front crosspiece and the side crosspiece at the corner of the decorative frame is covered by the front edge plate to improve the beauty of the upper part of the stove. Can be done. Moreover, even if the broth or the like falls into the corners of the decorative frame during cooking, the abutment between the front crosspiece and the side crosspiece is located on the back side of the front edge plate, so that dirt such as the broth adheres. Can be small.
[0011]
The front end of the side crosspiece and the side end of the front crosspiece include an engaging portion that engages with each other. At this time, as one mode of the engaging portion, the engaging portion includes a concave portion formed by notching a part of the front end of the side beam in a vertical direction, and the front edge plate portion of the front beam. And a claw portion projecting downward and engaging with the concave portion. Further, as another aspect of the engaging portion, the engaging portion includes a concave portion formed by notching rearward from a front end of the side beam, and a projecting portion that projects rearward from the front edge plate portion of the front beam. And a claw that engages with the recess. According to the first and second aspects, it is possible to prevent the front rail from being displaced in the front-rear direction and the front edge plate from being displaced in the swinging direction when a load is applied to the front horizontal plate. It is possible to prevent a gap from being formed between the front edge face plate portion and the front end of the side beam, and to maintain an integrally connected state between the front beam and the side beam.
[0012]
Further, as another aspect of the engaging portion, the engaging portion may include a convex portion protruding from one of an inner surface of a front end portion of the side beam and a rear surface of the front edge plate portion of the front beam. And a concave portion formed on the other side and engaged with the convex portion. This also prevents the front beam from shifting in the front-rear direction and the front edge plate portion from moving in the swinging direction when a load is applied to the front horizontal plate portion. Satisfactorily connected state can be maintained.
[0013]
Further, in the present invention, the front crosspiece and the side crosspiece are connected to each other via a connecting portion at the front horizontal plate portion and the side horizontal plate portion, and the connecting portion is connected to one of the horizontal plate portions. The engaging projections projecting horizontally at the ends of the two horizontal plates are press-fitted into the engaging recesses formed in the ends of the other horizontal plate portion in the horizontal direction corresponding to the projections. It is characterized by being formed on the same plane as the horizontal plate portion. The adjacent horizontal plate portions are caulked and connected by press-fitting the engagement protrusions into the engagement recesses, so that even if a connection portion is provided on the horizontal plate portion, the connection portions are the same as the two horizontal plate portions. It can be formed flat on a plane. Then, the connection between the engaging projection and the engaging recess can surely prevent the front beam and the side beam from coming off in the horizontal direction. Further, since each horizontal plate abuts along the lower surface of the face plate, the horizontal plate is prevented from being lifted up by the face plate, and the connection between the front crosspiece and the side crosspiece can be firmly maintained.
[0014]
