JPH1118940A - Cooking appliance and japanese hotchpotch warmer - Google Patents

Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To restrain conduction of heat to the appliance main body frame side from a heating plate, and improve heating effficiency by forming an appliance main body frame of resin in a cooking appliance where a cooking vessel is placed on a heating plate surface installed on an appliance main body frame. SOLUTION: When performed on a Japanese hotchpotch warmer, a heating plate 10 enclosing a heater 9 is installed through heat insulating packing 13 in an opening 11 part of a resin appliance main body frame 8 whose central part is opened, and a metallic cooking vessel 4 is placed on this heating plate 10 surface. The heat insulating packing 13 is composed of a silicone rubber hollow resin pipe, and heat insulating air 14 is filled inside. Since an installing groove 16 of the heat insulating packing 13 is formed on a peripheral under surface of the heating plate 10, the packing 13 can be easily and stably installed. In this way, since the appliance main body frame 8 is made of resin and is worse in heat conductivity than the metallic cooking vessel 4, heat conduction to the appliance main body frame 8 side from the heating plate 10 is restrained.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an assembling structure of a cooking device such as an oden warmer.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art For example, a convenience store is provided with an oden warmer, and an oden warmed by the oden warmer is provided to a customer.

[0003] In such an Oden warmer, a metal heating plate is mounted on a metal equipment frame,
A metal cooking vessel is placed on the heating plate surface, and the heating operation is performed by conducting heat from the heating plate side to the cooking vessel side.

[0004]

However, in the case where the apparatus main body frame is made of metal as described above, there are the following problems.

[0005] First, a large amount of heat is conducted from the heating plate to the equipment body frame side, which makes the equipment body frame extremely high in temperature, making it difficult to handle, and wastefully radiating heat from the equipment body frame side. As a result, the heating performance was reduced. There was also a limit in terms of design.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to improve the heating efficiency in a cooking device such as an oden warmer by smoothly transferring heat from a heating plate to a cooking vessel.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a cooking device such as an oden warmer which is excellent in handleability and design.

[0008]

According to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a heating and cooking apparatus comprising a heating plate mounted on an apparatus body frame and a cooking vessel placed on the heating plate surface. , The device body frame is made of resin.

According to the above construction, since the equipment body frame is made of resin and has lower thermal conductivity than a metal cooking container, conduction of heat from the heating plate to the equipment body frame side is suppressed, and the heating plate side Smooth heat conduction takes place,
The heating efficiency is improved, and the handleability of the device main body frame is improved because the device body frame that is exposed and touches the hands does not become hot.

[0010] Further, by molding the frame of the main body of the device with resin, it is possible to obtain a shape excellent in design, and the design of the entire device can be enhanced.

Further, a heat insulating packing made of a hollow resin pipe filled with heat insulating air made of silicone rubber is provided between the heating plate and the frame of the device main body.
Inventions described in (3) and (4), the effect of suppressing the conduction of heat from the heating plate to the side of the device body frame is enhanced, and the above effect is increased.

Further, the heat-insulating packing seals a gap between the heating plate and the frame of the main body of the apparatus, thereby preventing water or the like from flowing into the lower surface of the heating plate from that portion. Insulation deterioration of parts etc. is prevented,
Dirt on the lower surface of the heating plate can also be prevented.

Further, by forming a groove for mounting a hollow resin pipe on the heating plate side (the invention according to claim 5),
The hollow resin pipe can be easily and stably mounted, thereby improving the assemblability.

The above cooking device can be suitably used for an oden warmer or the like (the invention according to claim 6).

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS FIG. 1 is a perspective view of an external appearance of an oden warmer as a cooking device. Reference numeral 1 denotes a base unit having a heating unit integrated thereon, and an exterior body 3 is mounted on the base unit 1; The cooking container 4 is accommodated in the exterior body 3, and a lid 6 is provided so as to cover the cooking container 4. Reference numeral 7 denotes an operation unit.

FIG. 2 shows a partial cross-sectional structure of the base 1.
A heating plate 10 having a built-in heater 9 is fixed via screws 12 to a base 11 of an opening 11 of a resin-made main body frame 8 having a central opening. A metal cooking container 4 in which a bottom portion is placed on the surface of the heating plate 10 and a dish is stored inside is provided.

The heat-insulating packing 13 is formed of a hollow resin pipe made of silicon rubber, and is filled with heat-insulating air 14 inside. A mounting groove 16 for the heat insulating packing 13 is formed on the lower surface of the peripheral edge of the heating plate 10, and the heat insulating packing 13 is easily and stably mounted by the presence of the groove 16.

With the above-described configuration, first, since the equipment main body frame 8 is made of resin and has a lower thermal conductivity than the metal cooking container 4, the equipment main body frame 8 which receives heat from the heating plate 10 is formed.
The conduction to the side is suppressed, and in particular, the heat insulating packing 13 made of a hollow resin pipe filled with the heat insulating air 14 made of silicon rubber is provided between the two, so that the suppressing effect is enhanced.

Further, since the heat insulating packing 13 seals the gap between the heating plate 10 and the apparatus body frame 8, it is possible to prevent water or the like from flowing into the lower surface of the heating plate 10 from that portion. Water may penetrate into the wiring of the heater, etc., causing insulation deterioration.
0 The lower surface can be prevented from being soiled. ,

[0020]

According to the present invention, in a cooking device such as an oden warmer, the heating efficiency can be improved, and the handling and design of the cooking device can be improved.
