Description

  The present invention relates to a hot plate storage holder for holding a hot plate main body and a hot plate component placed on the hot plate main body, and more particularly to a hot plate storage holder for storing a controller.

  The hot plate can cook okonomiyaki, grilled meat, takoyaki, shumai, etc. by heating with a heater. This hot plate includes a frame that constitutes the outer shell, a heat shield plate that is housed in this frame and blocks heat from the heater, and a replacement plate that is built in the heater and placed on the heat shield plate to support various plates And a saucer, a lid, and a controller. Various types of plates include flat plates, grilled meat plates, takoyaki plates, and steamed plates. The controller has a power cord connected to a thermal bar and a commercial power supply, and is connected to a heater to adjust the temperature of the plate surface. And a heater heats various plates and foodstuffs, such as meat and vegetables put on the plate, are cooked.

  This hot plate is composed of a hot plate body that cannot be separated by the user and a hot plate component that can be separated by the user. In a hot plate having many separable parts, the hot plate main body is only a frame, and the hot plate parts are a heat shield, a tray, a replacement plate, various plates and a lid. By providing the separable hot plate parts, the user can remove each hot plate part from the main body of the hot plate after cooking and can perform individual cleaning, etc., so that it is easy to clean up afterwards.

  However, the hot plate at the time of storage is only a hot plate component such as a heat shield plate, a tray, a replacement plate, various plates, and a lid placed on the hot plate body. The placed hot plate component is detached from the hot plate body. For this reason, there was a problem that packing was not easy. In addition, when the hot plate is stored in a high position such as a top bag, there is a risk that the hot plate component that is placed falls on the head. In addition, the hot plate cannot be stood sideways, and the hot plate storage method is limited. Therefore, Patent Document 1 below contemplates a hot plate storage holder in which hot plate components are sandwiched so that the hot plate components are not detached from the hot plate body even when the hot plate is tilted. It is disclosed to provide a surface or foot that allows it to lean sideways.

Also, the hot plate is heavy and has the disadvantage of requiring both hands when carrying it. Furthermore, since the controller is separate from the hot plate main body, there is a problem that it is easily lost. Although the user may store the controller between the cooking plate and the lid, this method may damage the surface of the cooking plate due to the floating controller. In view of this, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open Publication No. 2003-259259 discloses that a handle is added to the hot plate storage holder, and that a controller is attached to the hot plate storage holder.
