It is disposed inside the cooking device main body 3 so as to abut against the inner surface of the reflecting plate 4 inside the main body 3. Therefore, this grill presser 1 has grill engaging parts 1a, 1b at the rear portion between its grill engaging parts 1c, 1d and the upper end 1e.
and the upper end portion 1e from falling down,
The upward rotation of the gridiron 2 is suppressed by this front portion. In FIG. 5, 5 is a rotatable door body, 6 is a heater, and 7 is a cushioning member such as cardboard that is held between the upper edge 5 of the door body and the upper edge of the reflector plate 4 during packaging. .

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, since the conventional grill presser 1 requires a rear part to prevent the front part from falling down, there is a problem that the shape is large and the material cost is high. Furthermore, the grill presser 1 is attached to the front and rear edges 2a, 2b of the grill 2.
In addition, it is troublesome to engage the edge 2b of the grill 2 at the back of the cooker body 3, and therefore, the work of attaching the grill holder 1 is time-consuming. There is a problem with the cost. Moreover, in terms of packaging the inside of the cooking appliance, the buffer member 7 is required in addition to the grill presser 1, which increases the amount of packaging material and the number of man-hours, resulting in high costs.

[Means for solving problems]

The grill holder of the present invention is made of a plate-shaped cushioning material with a cut in the lower part and a grill engaging part on both sides, and the grill grill is rotatable around the rear part at the grill engaging part. It is characterized in that it is disposed substantially upright along the inner surface of the door body, with the front edge of the door body being held between the front edges of the door body and the upper portion of the door body being sandwiched between the top edge of the door body and the top edge of the reflecting plate.

[Effect]

The grill holder of the present invention is arranged approximately upright along the inner surface of the door body, the upper part is held between the upper edge of the door body and the upper edge of the reflector, and the lower part is the grill engaging part. Since it is provided to hold the front edge of the grill, it can prevent upward rotation around the rear of the grill. In addition, with this grill holder, it is only necessary to engage the grill engaging part only with the front edge of the grill, which has a large working space for the grill, and when the door is closed, the upper part of the grill automatically moves to the front edge of the grill. Since it is held between the upper edge and the upper edge of the reflector, it is easy to attach. Furthermore, the grill holder prevents it from falling because its upper part is held between the upper edge of the door body and the upper edge of the reflector plate, and is in the form of a plate that runs along the inner surface of the door body, making it much more effective than before. Since it is small and also serves as a buffer between the upper edge of the door body and the upper edge of the reflector, it is possible to reduce costs while improving the ease of mounting mentioned above.
