Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an apparatus for cooking foods such as yakitori, yakiniku, grilled fish, bamboo rings, dumplings, rice cakes and the like that can be skewered.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Taking yakitori cooking as a typical example of skewered cooking, a method of burning charcoal fire on an elongated box-shaped stove to bake chicken meat or leeks on a bamboo skewer is generally used. However, a horizontally placed stove has the drawbacks of taking up space for installation, limiting the place of installation because smoke is emitted, and taking time to burn a charcoal fire. As a rabbit, it has the drawback that it cannot be used casually at other restaurants or mock-up shops at special venues.

In response to such a situation, an automatic yakitori cooker as shown in FIG. 8 has been developed. This is a sprocket 71, 72, 73 arranged in a substantially right triangle shape.
The endless chain 74 is wound around the chain, and the skewer supporting portions 75, 75, ..., Which hold one end of the skewer horizontally and horizontally support it, are provided at an appropriate pitch interval. A pair of panel-shaped heaters 76, 7 are provided on the left and right sides of the vertical transport area of the yakitori skewer, which is supported by the support portion 75 and is transported at a constant extremely slow speed by an electric motor.
6 is arranged, and a receiving box 77 for receiving grilled chicken that is baked up and dropped is provided below the lower end of the vertical transport area.

In this cooking device, a grilled skewer is stabbed with chopped chicken meat and beef and horses, and is attached to the grilled skewer supporting portion in the ascending region of the chain 75. While the grilled skewers descend between the panel-shaped heaters 76, 76, vegetables such as meat and leeks are appropriately baked, and when the transport chain shifts from vertical movement to horizontal movement, it comes off from the support portion 75. It is configured so as to enter the receiving box 77. Therefore, the cook need only concentrate on feeding the skewers to the transport chain and taking out the baked yakitori from the receiving box.

However, although it is good when the shape and properties of the meat and vegetables pierced on the grilled skewers are adjusted to be substantially constant, in reality, the size and shape of the lump of meat pierced on the skewers are Generally, the meat is different, and the characteristics of the meat also vary depending on the kind, individual difference, or part of the meat. Therefore, even if the meat is heated under the same conditions, the degree of burning is not uniform. Therefore, the yakitori that have fallen in the receiving box 77 must be checked one by one, and if they are not burnt properly, they must be reattached to the transport chain and reheated.
However, since it is impossible to change the transport speed individually, there is an inconvenience such as overburning this time.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is a first object of the present invention to disclose a skewered cooker which is small in size, does not occupy a lot of space, is easy to use, and produces very little smoke.

2, 32, ... are erected and opened upward to form a skewered support pipe. Reference numeral 33 is a support frame for fixing the square pipe.

This grilled skewer support 30 is convenient for making grilled fish or roasted chicken. For example, the longer width of the flat skewer is set according to the length of the diagonal line of the opening of the square pipe 33. If the fish is stabbed according to the flat surface of the flat skewer and mounted on the grill skewer support, the fish always maintains a predetermined posture with respect to the heating means. Since both sides of the fish can be heated and baked at the same time, the baked skin on both sides can be beautifully baked, unlike the case of baking one side at a time.

[0025]

[Effect] Since the skewer cooker of the present application does not have a rotary drive portion unlike the conventional device, it is not necessary to separate the drive member from the heating means, and the installation space is small, and moreover,
Unlike the standard mechanical baking process, you can get a baking condition similar to hand baking just by putting in and out the water plate. Since the oil that comes out of the material and the sauce that is applied to the material fall onto the water tray, unnecessary smoke does not occur, it can be used without resistance even in a tight room, and oil fumes and odors may stain the walls and furniture. Absent.

Due to the presence of the heating adjusting plate, the blowing of the combustion airflow from the panel-shaped red heating element is leveled, the heating is made uniform, and the combustion airflow is guided upward to prevent the material from being hit by an open flame. Since it is heated only by radiant heat, there is little occurrence of scorching. Further, in the case of heating by an open flame, since the combustion air flow contains water vapor, water may not be completely removed from the surface, but according to the device of the present application, the burnt surface is dried in a dry state and has a good taste. Is good. This effect becomes more remarkable as far infrared rays are generated more. By changing the heating adjustment plate to heat storage material specifications such as ceramics,
It is possible to increase the generation of far-infrared rays, drain the internal moisture without burning the surface, and cope with burning out.

Since the water tray and the skewered support are combined to support the object to be fired above the water tray, the dirt accompanying use is overwhelmingly concentrated on this portion. Since the water tray and the skewered support can be taken out freely and easily washed, it is not troublesome to dispose of the cooker of the present application. The case, which doubles as the back of the firing space, can be easily attached and detached to facilitate cleaning.
