Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (Industrial application field) The present invention is such that a hot plate is detachably attached to an exterior body that covers the side periphery and bottom of the hot plate, and after cooking is completed, the hot plate is removed from the exterior body. This invention relates to a separate type electric cooker that allows easy removal and cleaning of the hot plate.

(Prior art and problems) Separate type electric cookers position and lock the heating plate relative to the exterior body, hold it in a stable state during cooking, and release the lock after cooking is completed to heat the plate. The plate is removed from the exterior body and washed, and the method shown in FIG. 5 has conventionally been used for washing.

That is, the sheathed heater 21 is installed on the outer bottom surface of the hot plate 20.
At the same time, the terminal cover 23 that houses the terminals 22 of the sheathed heater 21 is attached, so grasp the terminal cover 23 with your fingertips and pull it upward to prevent washing water from entering the terminal cover 23. was holding it.

However, in this case, there was a problem that the terminal cover 23 gripped by the fingertips was easily slippery, and care was required to strengthen the gripping force of the fingertips, which was inconvenient.

(Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention comprises a heating plate having a terminal cover for housing a heater terminal and a locking latch on opposite peripheral parts of the outer bottom surface, and a heating plate having a terminal cover for housing the heater terminal and a locking latch on the bottom surface. The terminal cover is provided with a lock lever and an exterior body on which the heating plate is removably attached, and the terminal cover is provided with a band-like protrusion near the heating plate on the upper wall surface to prevent tentacles from touching the heating plate, and a bottom wall The reason is that there is a protrusion on the back side for the fingertip to catch.

(Example) Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

In Figure 1, 1 is a sheathed heater 2 on the outer bottom surface.
Terminals 4 of the sheathed heater 2 are attached to a part of the outer bottom surface of the heat plate 1.
A terminal cover 5 for housing the terminal cover 5 is attached with screws 6, and a latch 7 is attached to the periphery of the outer bottom surface of the hot plate 1 facing the terminal cover 5.

Reference numeral 8 denotes a substantially T-shaped lock lever pivotally connected via a shaft 10 to a bearing formed around the bottom surface of the exterior body 9, and the lock lever 8 includes an operating portion 8a extending outside the exterior body 9, A locking part 8b that engages and disengages from the top of the latch 7 and a receiving part 8c that fixes one end of the coil spring 11 facing the bottom of the latch 7 are integrally molded.

As shown in FIGS. 2A and 2B, the terminal cover 5 has an upper wall 5a having a band-shaped protrusion _5a1 on its surface.
, left and right side walls 5b, and a bottom wall 5c having a band-shaped protrusion _5c1 on the back surface are integrally molded.

Further, FIG. 2C shows another example in place of the band-shaped projections 5c ₁ , in which a plurality of projections 5c ₂ are formed at equal intervals.

In FIG. 1, an insertion hole 9a for a thermocontroller (not shown) is bored in the outer peripheral side wall of the exterior body 9, and a third As shown in the figure, a pair of guide walls 9b are formed to guide both side walls 5b of the terminal cover 5.

Note that 12 is a lid, and 13 is a plurality of legs attached to the outer bottom surface of the exterior body 9.

Therefore, in order to attach the hot plate 1 to the exterior body 9, the hot plate 1 is tilted and the terminal cover 5 is inserted along the guide wall 9b of the exterior body 9, and the strip-like protrusion _15a1 is inserted above the insertion hole 9a. When the hot plate 1 is pushed down by contacting the edge, the latch 7 presses the coil spring 11, the receiving part 8c rotates clockwise about the shaft 10, and the locking part 8b also rotates clockwise. Rotate and latch 7
The heating plate 1 is held in a stable state relative to the exterior body 9, and cooking is performed.

After cooking, when the operating part 8a of the lock lever 8 is pushed down to release the lock between the locking part 8b and the latch 7, the heating plate 1 is moved by the tension of the coil spring 11 to the strip-like protrusion 15a of the terminal cover 5. ₁ and the upper edge of the insertion hole 9a as a fulcrum, it rotates clockwise and rises above the exterior body 9, so it can be removed from the exterior body 9 by holding this part.

Therefore, in order to wash the hot plate ₁ removed from the exterior body 9, as shown in FIG _. The terminal cover 5 is held obliquely upward by grasping with the fingertips, and the hot plate 1 is washed while preventing washing water from entering the terminal cover 5.

At this time, since the fingertips can be hooked on the protrusions 5c ₁ or 5c ₂ , the terminal cover 5 can be held securely and will not slip off the fingertips, and the band-shaped protrusion 15a ₁ allows the fingertips to touch the hot plate 1. without touching,
Even if the hot plate 1 is a little hot, there is no risk of burns.

(Effects) In this invention, the terminal cover attached to the hot plate is provided with a protrusion for hooking fingertips and a band-shaped protrusion to prevent tentacles from touching the hot plate, so when cleaning the hot plate after cooking, To prevent cleaning water from entering the terminal cover, the fingertips holding the terminal cover obliquely upward do not slip, the terminal cover can be securely held without fear of being burned, and cleaning can be easily performed.
