In this specification, the front-rear and left-right directions are the front-rear direction when the cabinet is viewed from the front (the front side is the front and the back side is the rear), and the left-right direction.

Example 1
A first embodiment of a protective plate according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating an overall configuration of a kitchen 2 provided with a protective plate 1 according to the first embodiment. In the kitchen 2 of the first embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2A, a wall surface forming member 4 is provided on the rear side of the cabinet 3, and a counter 6 is placed on the top 5 of the wall surface forming member 4. This is a face-to-face kitchen equipped with a kitchen counter 7. That is, the kitchen counter 7 is constituted by the wall surface forming member 4 and the counter 6.

  A worktop (top plate) 10 is provided on the upper surface of the cabinet 3. A back guard 11 is formed at the rear end of the work top 10 so as to extend in the frontage direction (left-right direction). The back guard 11 is formed so that its top surface 12 protrudes upward from the upper surface of the work top 10 and has a width w in the depth direction (front-rear direction) as shown in FIG.

  The worktop 10 is provided with a cooking device 13 such as a stove or IH (electromagnetic induction heater). In this embodiment, a stove is provided as the cooking device 13, and this stove includes a top plate 14 and five virtues 15 on which an article 16 such as a pan or a kettle is placed during heating. As shown in FIG. 2B, the upper surface of the cooking device 13 (the upper surface of the top plate 14 of the cooking device 13) is formed to be higher than the upper surface of the worktop 10 by a height h1.

  As shown in FIG. 2 (b), the protective plate 1 is integrally provided with a mounting portion 19 and a protective portion 20, and is a heat-resistant metal plate made of stainless steel or the like. It is formed into a mold. If the surface of the metal plate forming the protective part is a smooth surface, the cleaning property is also excellent.

  Moreover, since the mounting part 19 is in contact with the upper surface of the worktop 10 only by the support legs 21, even if an article 16 such as a heated pan or kettle is placed, the worktop 10 is soiled or heated. It is possible to suppress adverse effects such as deformation, alteration or damage. The placement unit 19 serves not only to place a pan, a kettle, etc., but also to protect the top surface of the worktop from dirt and heat.

  The protection part 20 is a part that stands vertically upward from the rear end of the placement part 19, and is a part that covers and protects the front surfaces of the back guard 11, the wall surface forming member 4, and the counter 6. The protection unit 20 attaches the rear surface (back surface side) to the front surface of the wall surface forming member 4 via the attachment member 22.

  As shown in FIG. 2B, the dimension s in the depth direction (front-rear direction) of the attachment member 22 is set to be larger than the width w of the back guard 11 in the depth direction (front-rear direction). By setting it as such a dimension, when the protection plate 1 is mounted, the attachment position is not restricted on the front surface of the back guard 11.

  In the present embodiment, the attachment member 22 is configured to be fixedly attached to the front surface of the wall surface forming member 4 and attached to the magnet 23 so that the rear surface (back side) of the protective portion 20 is attracted and attached to be removable. It is said. By setting it as the structure which can be attached or detached, the protection plate 1 can be removed easily and cleaning property improves compared with the thing of a screwing type.

  The attachment member 22 is a means that allows the protective portion of the protective plate 1 to be attached to and detached from the wall surface forming member 4, such as a configuration in which hooks that can be engaged with each other are provided on the front surface of the wall surface forming member 4 and the rear surface of the protective portion 20. Any other configuration may be used.

(Function)
The operation of the protection plate 1 having the above configuration will be described. As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the protective plate 1 is disposed on the front side of the back guard 11, the wall surface forming member 4, and the counter 6, and is placed on the worktop 10 on the rear side of the cooking appliance 13. And is attached via the attachment member 22.

  Heat, steam, etc. generated from the cooking device 13 or the article 16 such as a pot or kettle heated by the cooking device 13 are shielded and blocked by the protective plate 1 to the back guard 11, the wall surface forming member 4, the counter 6, and the like. The adverse effects such as deformation, alteration or damage due to heat are suppressed.

  In addition, an article 16 such as a pan or a kettle heated by the cooking device 13 can be placed on the placement portion 19 of the protective plate 1 without being placed directly on the work top 10. In this case, even if the article 16 such as a pan or a kettle is placed across the cooking device 13 and the placement unit 19, the cooking device 13 and the placement unit 19 are set to have the same upper surface. The article 16 such as a kettle can be placed stably without being inclined.
