Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electric cooktop having a heating element on the upper part of the main body.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventional electric stoves of this type include, for example, the Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-3
As shown in Japanese Patent No. 1781, it had a structure as shown in FIG.

That is, the sheathed heater 1 is placed on the heater holder 2, the heater holder 2 is placed on the outer edge 4 of the juice tray 3, and the hinge holder is placed on the sheath tube 6 near the terminal 6 of the sheathed heater 1. 7 is firmly fixed, and this hinge metal fitting 7 is fixed to the stove outer peripheral frame 9 via a spring plate 8. Further, a ventilation hole 1o is provided in the center of the juice pan 3, and the end of the heater holder 2 is inserted into the hole 11 provided at the outer edge of the soup pan 3 by the biasing force of the spring plate 8. ing. Further, a temperature sensor 12 is provided in the center of the sheathed heater 1.
2 detects the temperature of the bottom placed on the sheathed heater 1 and controls the energization of the sheathed heater 1.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in such a configuration, when a large-diameter pot or the like is placed on the sheathed heater 1, the gap between the bottom of the pot and the outer edge of the soup saucer 3 decreases.

Since the convection of air upward from the vent 10 is reduced,
The temperature of the soup pan 3 and the outer frame 9 of the stove may become high enough to increase the risk of burns, or the accidentally spilled broth may stick to the soup tray 3 or the outer frame 9 of the stove and become difficult to remove. It was difficult to clean.

In addition, since the convection amount of air from the vent 1o changes depending on the size of the pot, the ambient temperature of the temperature sensor 12 also changes, and as a result, the temperature sensing performance of the temperature sensor 12 is also affected by this. This has the disadvantage that the sensing accuracy of the temperature sensor 12 deteriorates. Furthermore, when a large amount of broth is blown down, the ventilation hole 10 in the center of the saucepan 3
The boiling liquid would then enter the stove body, and in this case, it would be impossible to clean it, so there was a fear that it would become unsanitary.

The present invention was made in order to solve these problems, and it prevents the temperature of the frame and the top surface of the main body from becoming high,
Furthermore, even if a temperature sensor is installed, the amount of change in the ambient temperature of the temperature sensor can be reduced to improve the accuracy of temperature sensing performance, and the purpose is to provide an electric stove with an easy-to-clean saucer. be.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a hole in the top of the main body, a heating element in the hole, and a saucer larger than the hole below the top. The tray is provided so as to be slidable in the front and rear directions of the main body.

In addition, a partition plate having a convex portion on the side surface is provided below the saucer, and an air circulation hole is provided in the side surface of this partition plate to communicate the internal space of the main body with the hole in the top surface. A roaster section and a control unit are built into the space inside the main body divided by.

Further, a substantially lattice-shaped frame body having holes in the portions corresponding to the heating elements is removably placed on the top surface.

In addition, a number of electrical outlets corresponding to the number of heating elements are provided on the side of the hole in the top surface of the main body, and plugs corresponding to the electrical outlets are provided in the terminals of the heating elements, so that the heating elements can be slid freely into the ceiling. The heating element is placed on the surface and positioned by the frame.

Furthermore, a saucer is provided in which the height of the front side of the saucer side is lower than that of the other side faces, and is slidable in the front-rear direction of the main body.

Effect According to the above configuration, even when a large pot is placed on the heating element and heated, the high temperature air is released through the holes in the frame by convection, so that the air is heated between the frame and the top of the main body and the saucer. As a result, the rise in temperature of the frame and the top surface of the main body becomes smaller.

Also, if you accidentally spill boiling liquid, etc., the liquid will drip from the frame onto the saucer, but in this case, the temperature of the saucer is low, so it will not burn, and the saucer can be removed and washed. .

Furthermore, even if the user forgets to set the saucer, since there is a partition plate, there is no risk of boiling liquid or the like entering the main body.

In addition, due to the presence of air circulation holes in the partition plate, a natural convection phenomenon occurs in which air that enters through the holes in the bottom of the main unit is exhausted through the holes in the top through the air circulation holes. Therefore, the temperature rise inside the main body can be suppressed to a low level, and as a result, the influence of temperature on the control unit, etc. is also reduced, and the risk of failure can be eliminated.

In addition, a roughly lattice-shaped frame is removably placed on top of the main body, so even if the pot is placed offset from the heating element, the pot can be replaced easily. Once it's gone, you can also remove the frame and wash it.

Furthermore, the heating element can be easily removed by removing the frame.

In addition, even if the saucer is full of boiling liquid, the broth will overflow from the front side of the saucer, making it easier to clean and preventing the broth from entering the main body, which houses the control unit, etc. .

Embodiment Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the accompanying drawings.

In Figures 1 to 3, 21 is the main body of the electric stove;
2 is a top surface portion that covers the top surface of the main body 21, and 22a is a hole provided in the center of the top surface portion 22.

A heating element 23 is provided above the hole 22aΩ of the top surface 22, and a plug 32 is attached to the terminal portion of the heating element 23. Also, the top surface portion 22 facing the plug 32 and the hole portion 22
A number of outlets 31 corresponding to the number of heating elements 23 are provided on the side surface of a, and if the heating elements 23 are slid forward, the plug 32 and the outlet 31 can be removed. Further, when installing the heating element 23, the plug 32 and the outlet 31 are connected by sliding the heating element 23 toward the back on the top surface part 22.

Reference numeral 24 denotes a saucer which is slidably placed in the front and back direction on a partition plate 26 located below the hole 22a of the top panel 22. It has a large sea circumference. Further, among the side surfaces of the saucer 24, the height of the front side surface is lower than the height of the other side surfaces. Further, the lower surface of the saucer 24 is in contact with the partition plate 26, and a convex portion 26 is provided on the side surface of the partition plate 25.
An air circulation hole 27 that communicates with the hole 22a is provided. This partition plate 26 is installed inside the main body 21.

3o is a frame whose size is one size larger than the hole 22a of the top section 22, and this frame 3o has a hole in a portion corresponding to the heating element 23, and covers the hole 22a of the top section 22. It is removably placed on the top surface part 22 as shown in FIG.

Further, the heating element 23 is positioned by the frame 30, and the heating element 23 does not move when the frame 3o is placed on the top surface portion 22.

The operation of the above configuration will be explained next.

When a pot is placed on the heating element 23 and the heating element 23 is energized and heated, the ambient temperature near the heating element 23 rises, high temperature air flows out from the hole in the frame 30 by convection, and the heat is released. is dissipated to the outside, so the top surface section 22. saucer 2
4 and the frame 3o, and even when the roaster section 28 is heated by electricity, the heat is transferred to the hole 22 of the top section 22 by convection through the air circulation hole 27.
Since it passes through a and is discharged from the hole in the frame 3o,
It doesn't trap heat easily.

Further, when the boiling liquid or the like boils over by mistake, the boiling liquid is stored in the saucer 24. In this case, if the saucer 24 is pulled out toward the front, the saucer 24 can be easily removed and the broth can be cleaned. Furthermore, even if you forget to set the saucer 24 during use, the partition plate 26 can catch the broth, so there is no risk of the broth or the like entering the main body 21. And again saucer 24
When a large amount of boiling liquid or the like spills over and the saucer 24 becomes full, the broth spills out from the low front side of the saucer 24 to the front side of the main body 21, so that it enters the main body. It does not stain and can be easily wiped off.

Further, by providing the partition plate 26, it is possible to prevent the influence of heat from the heating element 23 from reaching the space inside the main body 21 in which the roaster section 28 and the control unit 29 are built.

Furthermore, since the frame body 30 is only placed on the top surface portion 22, it can be easily attached and detached. Furthermore, if the frame body 30 is removed, the heating element 23 can be slid and the plug 32 can be easily removed.
As a result, the heating element 23, which may get in the way during cleaning, can be removed and cleaned.

Furthermore, the frame body 30 and the saucer 24, which are easily soiled, can be attached and removed for cleaning, and since no electrical parts are attached to them, the frame body 30 and the saucer 24 can be washed with water.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the above embodiments, according to the present invention,
Even if a pot is placed on the heating element and heated, there is little heat buildup within the body, and as a result, the temperature rise in the body and top portion can be kept low, so there is no risk of burns. In addition, since there is less influence of heat on the control unit 7) in the main body, it is possible to obtain an electric stove with excellent durability that is less likely to break down.

Further, the frame body and saucer, which tend to get dirty easily, can be easily attached and detached, and can also be washed with water. Furthermore, since the heating element can be easily removed, cleaning of the main body is easy. Furthermore, when the heating element breaks down, it can be easily replaced.

Also, if you forget to set the saucer and use it and spill the broth,
Even if the saucer is filled with more broth than it is full, the presence of the partition plate prevents the broth from entering the main body, and the broth spills toward the front of the main body, making it easy to clean.
