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

  FIG. 1 shows an overall perspective view of a grill pan which is a kind of the heating cooker of the present invention, FIG. 2 shows a cross-sectional view thereof, FIG. 3 shows a perspective view of the cooking pan as viewed obliquely from above, The bottom view of a cooking pan is shown, and sectional drawing of a partition is shown in FIG.

  Below, it demonstrates using the grill pan which is a kind of heating cooker. The grill pan H includes a main body case 10 which is a main body of a cooker constituting the outer shell, a heat shield plate 20, a heater 25 as a heating means disposed inside the heat shield plate 20, and energization of the heater 25. It has the temperature controller 30 for controlling, the cooking pan 40 etc. which are mounted above the heat-insulating plate 20.

  The main body case 10 is a plate-shaped and circular resin molding member that constitutes the outline of the grill pan H, has a side wall 11 and a bottom wall 12, and an upper opening in which the heat shield plate 20 is accommodated above. 13 The side wall 11 is provided with a side opening 14 for mounting a temperature controller 30 to be described later. Further, the side walls 11, 11 orthogonal to the side opening 14 and intersecting a straight line passing through the center are respectively provided on the side walls 11, 11. The recessed fitting parts 15 and 15 in which the handle 41 of the cooking pan 40 is mounted are provided in the form facing radially.

  The heat shield plate 20 is integrally formed by pressing a metal thin plate, and the whole is a substantially dish-like and circular member in plan view, and prevents heat from being radiated downward. A plurality of heater holders 21 are erected in the heat shield plate 20.

  The heater holder 21 is, for example, an L-shaped flat plate member having a U-shaped cutout at the top, and is attached by screwing a lower end bent at a right angle to the bottom of the heat shield plate 20. A heater 25 is held in the U-shaped notch.

  The heater 25 which is a heating means is a sheathed heater having a substantially heart shape in plan view as shown in FIG. 4. A coiled heating wire is passed through a metal pipe to prevent contact between the pipe and the heating wire. The heat-resistant inorganic insulating powder is packed and the metal pipe is sealed at both ends, and is usually called an incoloy heater. Since the sheathed heater has such a structure, the metal pipe is insulated, and even if it touches the metal pipe, there is no electric shock.

  The temperature controller 30 as a temperature adjusting means is a unitized integrated member having a temperature setting unit 31 and a heat sensitive bar 32 as a heat sensitive unit. The temperature setting unit 31 is a part having a temperature adjustment lever 31a, a display 31b, a plug receiver 31c, and the like, and the heat sensitive bar 32 is a part for detecting the temperature of the cooking pot 40. When the temperature adjuster 30 is inserted into the side opening 14 of the main body case 10, the heat sensitive bar 32 comes into contact with the bottom of the cooking pot 40 and detects the temperature of the cooking pot 40 as shown in FIG. 2.

  The cooking pan 40 is a dish-like metal container having a side wall 40a and a bottom wall 40b, and the surface is subjected to fluorine processing, and cooking of simmered foods and the like is performed inside. And in the location which opposes the radial direction of the upper end part of the side wall part 40a, while having the handles 41 and 41 of the same shape and magnitude | size, while carrying the cooking pan 40 easily, at the time of cooking, the case 10 of the main body case 10 is provided. It is placed and positioned on the recessed fitting portions 15 and 15. The recessed fitting portions 15 and 15 have the same shape and size on the left and right, and can be placed even when the horizontal direction of the cooking pan 40 is reversed. Moreover, at the time of cooking, as shown in FIG. 1, it is closed with the lid | cover 42 which has the knob 42a.

  A partition 45 is provided inside the cooking pot 40. In this example, it is one partition 45, and the cooking pot 40 is partitioned into two chambers in a form perpendicular to the line connecting the two handles 41, 41. By arrange | positioning the partition 45 with such a form, even if the quantity of the foodstuff in each chamber differs, carrying of the cooking pan 40 becomes easy. A plurality of the partitions 45 may be arranged so that the cooking pot 40 is divided into a plurality of chambers.

  The partition 45 is provided so as to stand up from the bottom wall portion 40b, has a length connecting the left and right radial side wall portions 40a, and the height thereof is the same as or slightly lower than the height of the side wall portion 40a. It will be lost. Moreover, the partition 45 is a planar view curve shape, for example, substantially S shape etc., and is a combined shape of the S-shaped part 45a of a center part, and the linear part 45b of the both end vicinity in this example.

  The shape of the partition 45 in a plan view is a shape that is a right and left object with respect to the center such as an S-shape, and may be any shape as long as it is a right and left object shape with respect to the center.

  If the vicinity of both ends of the partition 45 is a curved portion, the gap near both ends becomes narrow, making it difficult for the food to be picked with chopsticks, and further, making it difficult for the brush to enter when cleaning, Such an adverse effect is eliminated by making the vicinity of both end portions linear portions 45b.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the cross-sectional shape of the partition 45 is a vertically elongated triangular shape or a tapered shape, and an internal space 46 having an opening 46a below is formed therein. The height of the internal space 46 may be adjusted to the average amount of juice or the like when cooking in the cooking pot 40. In this example, the height is about half of the partition 45. It should be noted that the height is preferably higher if the strength is ensured.

  Thus, by providing the internal space 46 in the partition 45, for example, even if juice is added to one chamber, the temperature drop of the added chamber is hardly transmitted to the other chamber, which adversely affects the cooking of the other chamber. The harmful effect of preventing is reduced or reduced.

  The bottom of the cooking pot 40 is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 4, the internal space 46 is not provided in some of the partitions 45. That is, as described above, the heater 25 has a substantially heart shape in plan view, and is used in a form of contacting the bottom of the cooking pot 40. Therefore, when the internal space 46 is provided in all the partitions 45, a part of the heater 25 crosses the opening 46 a of the internal space 46. Then, it becomes difficult for the heat of the heater 25 of that part to be transmitted to the cooking pan 40, and thermal efficiency falls.

  Moreover, even if the cooking pot 40 is divided into two chambers, only one heat sensitive bar 32 is used, and in order to properly control the temperature of the two chambers, the temperature in the vicinity of the partition 45 is detected. However, if the internal space 46 is provided in all the partitions 45, the heat sensitive rod 32 is positioned in the opening 46 a of the internal space 46. Then, the temperature detection with the heat sensitive bar 32 is difficult to be performed properly, and the detection is not performed properly.

  In order to eliminate such an adverse effect, the internal space 46 is not provided in the partition 45 where the heater 25 at the bottom of the cooking pot 40 crosses and where the tip of the heat sensitive bar 32 is located. By adopting such a structure, it is difficult for the heat of the heater 25 to be transmitted to the cooking pan 40, and for the problem that the temperature detection with the heat sensitive bar 32 is difficult to be performed properly. Thus, it is possible to prevent bad effects such as being impossible to detect.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 4, the part which the heater 25 which does not provide the interior space 46 in the partition 45 crosses, and the part in which the front-end | tip of the heat sensitive rod 32 is located are provided in right and left object with respect to the center. As described above, when the cooking pan 40 is placed on the main body case 10 by providing the part where the internal space 46 is not provided in the partition 45 as the center, the heater 25 crosses even if the cooking pan 40 is placed on the main body case 10. The opening 46a which does not provide the internal space 46 is not located at the place and the place where the tip of the heat sensitive bar 32 is located. That is, the degree of freedom for placing the cooking pot 40 on the main body case 10 is increased.

  By the way, although the front-end | tip of the heat sensitive bar 32 is provided toward the center of the cooking pan 40, when providing the front-end | tip of the heat sensitive bar 32 in the downward part of the partition 45 without the internal space 46, the partition 45 is S-shaped. If it is curved, the arrangement becomes easy, and the temperature of the two chambers can be detected appropriately.

  The present invention is not limited to the configuration of the above-described embodiment, and can be appropriately changed in design without departing from the gist of the invention.
