[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a structure in which a drop-in stove is supported by an opening peripheral edge of a countertop.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The so-called drop-in stove has its main body case housed in an opening provided in the countertop, and the upper end portion of the main body case is supported by the peripheral edge of the opening. Accordingly, the top plate portion of the drop-in stove only protrudes from the upper surface of the countertop, so that the appearance of the kitchen is clean and the protruding height from the upper surface of the countertop is reduced, so that it is easy to use.
[0003]
As the countertop, an artificial marble, a wooden base material with a heat-resistant surface treatment, or a wooden base material coated with a metal plate or the like is used. Since the heat resistance of the base material or the like is insufficient, when the heat during use of the drop-in stove is conducted from the top plate to the base material or the like, the opening periphery of the countertop surface may be thermally damaged. Discoloration.
[0004]
In order to prevent such inconvenience and to prevent inconvenience that boiled juice and water on the upper surface of the countertop enter the drop-in stove, the conventional body (see Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 6-4507) discloses the main body of the drop-in stove The case is accommodated in a state in which the case is positioned in relation to the opening of the counter top, and the periphery of the top plate provided so as to be externally fitted to the main body case is supported by the opening periphery of the counter top via the packing. It has become. The packing secures water tightness between the top plate and the counter top and exhibits a heat insulating effect, thereby eliminating the inconvenience.
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, in this case, since it is necessary to attach the packing to the periphery of the top plate, the installation work of the drop-in stove is troublesome, and when the packing is damaged, the heat insulating effect is impaired.
The present invention supports the state in which the drop-in stove is accommodated in the opening of the countertop in which the upper surface of the base material is covered with a metal plate among the various countertops described above, without using the packing, It is an object of the present invention to prevent intrusion of boiled juice, water and the like into the opening and ensure heat insulation with the base material.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
The technical means taken in order to solve the above-mentioned problem is “providing an opening for accommodating the drop-in stove in the counter top whose upper surface of the base material is covered with a metal plate, and the drop-in stove accommodated in the opening. Is supported by the peripheral edge of the opening, and the entire opening peripheral edge of the metal plate is a floating part that floats from the peripheral edge part of the opening of the base material, and the peripheral edge of the drop-in stove is the top surface of the floating part A skirt portion is continuously provided on the inner peripheral side of the floating portion, and a gap that opens downward and communicates with the inside of the floating portion is provided between the skirt portion and the opening peripheral edge of the base material. Is formed ”.
Further, the technical means taken in order to solve the above-mentioned problem is “providing an opening for accommodating a drop-in stove in a countertop whose upper surface of a base material is covered with a metal plate, and dropping the accommodated in the opening. In the support of the stove by the opening periphery, the entire opening periphery of the metal plate is a floating part floating from the opening periphery of the base material, and the periphery of the drop-in stove is the landing part of the landing part. It is supported by the top surface, and the inner peripheral side of the top surface of the floating portion is partially or entirely supported by the substrate.
The above solution works as follows.
[0007]
The main body case of the drop-in stove is supported by a floating portion that rises at the periphery of the opening formed in the countertop, and the periphery of the top plate is positioned by fitting with the main body case. Part of the heat generated in the drop-in stove reaches the peripheral edge of the top plate, and this peripheral edge is directly or indirectly supported by the floating part, and the peripheral edge of the top plate includes a metal plate and a base material. Does not contact at the part (the outer periphery of the landing part) in close contact. Since the floating part is a part where the metal plate is lifted from the base material, there is a predetermined space between the base material and the metal plate, and the heat insulating action by the air layer of the space causes the peripheral part of the top plate. Heat can be prevented from transferring to the base material below the landing portion. Further, boiled juice, water and the like collected on the counter top can be prevented from entering the opening on the inner peripheral side by the floating portion.
Further, the structure of the landing portion is such that a skirt portion is continuously provided on the inner peripheral side, and a gap that opens downward and communicates with the inside of the landing portion between the skirt portion and the opening peripheral edge of the base material. Since the space in the floating portion communicates with the lower space in the opening through the gap, the air in the floating portion circulates between the outside and the floating portion. The temperature of the air in the land portion is unlikely to rise, the heat insulation effect is promoted, and the edge of the plate material is not exposed at the periphery of the opening of the metal plate, which is safe and the opening peripheral wall portion of the base material can be protected.
Further, in the case where the inner peripheral side of the top surface of the landing part or the skirt part is supported partially or entirely by the substrate, both the outer peripheral side and the inner peripheral side of the landing part cross section are formed by the substrate. Since it is supported, the support strength of the drop-in stove is improved.
[0008]
【The invention's effect】
Since the present invention has the above configuration, the present invention has the following specific effects.
The floating part of the metal plate can prevent the intrusion of boiled juice or water into the opening, and the heat insulation from the floating part can prevent the heat transfer from the top plate to the base material. The support structure of the drop-in stove for reducing the thermal influence of the is simplified.
[0009]
[Others]
Note that if “the space below the landing part is open in the opening and there is a gap between the trunk part and the landing part of the main body case”, the air in the landing part Since it is easy to circulate with the exterior, the temperature of the air in the said floating part does not rise easily.
[0012]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, the embodiments of the present invention will be described together with illustrated examples.
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the drop-in stove in this example is the same as the conventional one in that a burner (4) (4), a combustion control device, etc. are provided in the body case (2). It is.
[0013]
In this example, the main body case (2) is accommodated in an opening (11) formed in the countertop (C) with a flat box body opened upward, and an upper flange portion (21) is formed in the opening (11). ) And is supported in a suspended state. The open part of the main body case (2) is closed by a top plate (3) to be crowned, and the burner top (41) of the burner (4) is opened from the hole (30) provided in the top plate (3). ) Protrudes upward.
[0014]
Five victories (5) are placed on the top surface of the top plate (3), and claws (51) (51) are arranged in a manner corresponding to the burner tops (41). The claws (51) (51) are connected and integrated so as to protrude from the frame (50) of the five virtues (5).
The countertop (C) is composed of a wooden base material (10) and a stainless steel plate as a metal plate (1) covering the upper surface, and the peripheral edge of the opening (11) extends over the entire area. Thus, the floating part (12) is continuously formed. Therefore, in this example, the plane shape of the floating portion (12) is a rectangular loop as a whole, and the flange portion has a shape substantially similar to the outline of the plane shape of the main body case (2). It substantially matches the planar shape of (21).
[0015]
The body case (2) has a leaf spring positioning piece (22) (22) inserted in a press-fitted state between the opening (11) and the end surface (101) of the base material (10). Is provided. Since the positioning piece (22) is interposed between the end face (101) on each side of the rectangular opening (11) and the body portion, the main body case (2) with respect to the opening (11) Is positioned accurately.
[0016]
A locking piece (23) bent upward is continuously provided on the periphery of the flange portion (21) projecting outward from the upper end of the body portion of the main body case (2). This locking piece (23) is formed in a form formed in each of the corner portions of the flange portion (21), or partially from each side of the rectangular flange portion (21) as a whole or It is formed in a manner that protrudes throughout.
[0017]
The peripheral portion of the other top plate (3) is a hanging wall (31) over the entire circumference, and the top plate (3) has a lower end portion of the hanging wall (31) at the locking piece ( 23) The body case (2) is crowned in such a manner that it is externally fitted to (23). The relationship between the body case (2) and the top plate (3) is positioned by the external fitting.
As shown in detail in FIG. 2, the hanging wall (31) is provided with a tongue piece (32) protruding inward, and the top plate (3) is covered with the main body case (2). In the aspect, the tongue piece (32) is in contact with the outer surface side of the locking piece (23). Further, the outline of the planar shape of the top plate (3) is substantially matched with the outer peripheral edge of the entire planar shape of the floating part (12), and the hanging wall (31) Located above the outer peripheral edge of the top surface portion, the boundary between the locking piece (23) and the tongue piece (32) is located in the middle of the top surface portion of the landing portion (12).
[0018]
Note that the tongue piece (32) may be formed from the lower end of the hanging wall (31) to the inside around the entire circumference, but may be formed partially on each side, and the hanging wall ( 31) and the tongue piece (32) may be integrally formed, or a separate one may be fixedly integrated by welding or the like.
In this example, the contour of the opening periphery of the stainless steel plate as the metal plate (1), that is, the contour on the inner peripheral side of the floating portion (12) is wider than the size of the opening of the base material (10). It is set to a certain small size. A constant gap (14) is provided across the entire area between the skirt portion (13) hanging from the inner peripheral edge of the landing portion (12) and the end face (101) of the opening of the base material (10). Has occurred.
[0019]
Accordingly, the rectangular cross-section vacant space (K) generated below the landing portion (12) communicates with the space portion in the opening (11) through the gap (14). On the other hand, the skirt portion (13) covers most of the end surface (101) of the opening (11) of the base material (10) over the entire circumference to protect the end surface (101).
In the support structure of the drop-in stove configured as described above, there is no conventional packing at the lower end of the hanging wall (31), but part of the heat from the burner (4) is transferred to the top plate (3). Even if a part of the heat is transferred to the drooping wall (31), the heat transfer from the drooping wall (31) to the base material (10) is prevented by the air insulation action of the empty chamber (K). Thus, thermal damage to the substrate (10) is prevented. In addition, since there is a vacancy (K), the metal plate (1) constituting the landing part (12) is also easily air-cooled.
[0020]
Because there is a floating part (12), it is difficult for boiled juice and water remaining on the upper surface of the countertop (C) to get over the floating part (12) and enter the opening (11) without using packing. Further, it is possible to prevent the lower portion of the opening (11) and the body portion of the main body case (2) from being stained.
In this example, the top plate (3) and the body case (2) are positioned in such a manner that the tongue piece (32) and the locking piece (23) are fitted on the upper surface of the floating portion (12). However, as shown in FIG. 3, the tongue piece (32) may be extended and an engagement tongue piece (33) that fits and engages with the inner peripheral edge of the flange portion (21) may be provided at the tip. In this case, the flange portion (21) and the tongue piece (32) are supported by the floating portion (12) in a state where they overlap. Moreover, as a structure of the top plate (3), as shown in the figure, the juice receiving tray (35) may be detachably mounted.
[0021]
As shown in FIG. 4, the engaging tongue piece (33) is formed at the tip of an extension piece (34) partially attached to the upper surface of the tongue piece (32) by a method such as spot welding. It may be. In this case, the lower surface of the tongue piece (32) and the flange portion (21) are both in contact with the top surface portion of the floating portion (12). Accordingly, it is difficult for a gap to be formed between the drooping wall (31) and the top surface portion of the landing portion (12), so that water or the like hardly enters.
[0022]
In the example of FIG. 4, the free end portion of the positioning piece (22) provided in the main body case (2) contacts the skirt portion (13) of the landing portion (12), so that the main body case (2) Is positioned.
Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 5, it may be a floating part (12) in which the skirt part (13) is not continuously provided. In FIG. 5, the vacant space (K) below the inner peripheral edge of the top surface of the floating part (12) is left in the space between the body case (2) and the end surface (101) of the substrate (10). Since it is open, the air circulation action in the empty room (K) is not impaired.
[0023]
The said embodiment can be changed as shown in FIG. 6, FIG.
This is a circular step (S) having a constant width from the periphery of the opening (11) of the countertop (C) that is recessed from the surface of the countertop (C) over the entire circumference. The opening periphery of the substrate (10) is finished so as to have a step (S), and stainless steel as the metal plate (1) is coated along the surface, and the opening periphery of the metal plate (1) is covered. A floating part (12) is formed in the same manner as in the embodiment described above, and a step part (311) is formed in the middle of the skirt part (13) connected to the inner periphery of the floating part (12). The step portion (131) is in contact with the peripheral edge of the opening of the substrate, and the area below the step portion (131) of the skirt portion (13) covers the upper portion of the end surface (101). . Further, a plurality of partial ventilation holes (121) are provided to straddle the inner peripheral side of the top surface of the floating part (12) and the skirt part (13).
[0024]
In this case, the inner peripheral side of the top surface of the landing part (12) is supported by the substrate via the region above the step part (131) of the skirt part (13). ) Is higher than the conventional one. In this respect, the ventilation hole (121) is not essential.
As shown in this example, when a plurality of ventilation holes (121) are provided across the inner peripheral side of the top surface of the landing part (12) and the skirt part (13), ) The air circulation inside will be promoted. The heat insulating effect when the drop-in stove is supported by the landing portion (12) is improved as compared with the case where the ventilation hole portion (121) is not provided.
[0025]
