Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is a steam cooker that performs steam cooking by ejecting steam appropriately into the heating chamber, especially after the steam is used to steam the object to be heated. This invention relates to a structure for disposing of condensate generated by condensation on doors and doors, and in particular, this invention relates to an improvement in the installation structure of a drain pan that receives condensate.

An embodiment of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In Figs. 1 and 2, 1 is an outer casing, 2 is a heating chamber formed within this outer casing, and 3 and 4 are upper parts of this heating chamber. An electric sheathed heater is attached to the lower part, 5 is a table for placing the food to be cooked, and 6 is a steam jet nozzle provided on the side wall of the heating chamber 2.

7 is a door that closes the front opening 8 of the heating chamber 2 in a freely openable and closable manner;
10 is a drain tray consisting of a decorative metal fitting attached to the outer casing 1 below along the lower edge of the door, and 10 is a drain plate inserted in a drawable manner below the lower surface of the outer casing 1. A small hole 11 opening on the drain tray is bored in the center of the inner bottom surface of the drain 9.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a steam generator provided on the side of the heating chamber 2, and is constructed as shown in FIG. 3.

That is, in FIG. 3, 13 is the steam generating section, 14 is a cartridge-shaped electric heater provided in the steam generating section, and 15 is a water storage tank, which supplies water into the steam generating section 13 via a water receiver 16 and a pipe 17. It is connected.

The tip of this pipe 17 is protruded from the front of the outer casing 1, and a drain hole 18 is provided.

Further, the upper space 19 in the steam generating section 13 is formed by a pipe 20.
It is connected to the steam jet nozzle 6 via.

Reference numerals 21 and 22 denote legs provided on both sides of the bottom surface of the outer casing 1, and the front legs 21 are formed in an L shape so as to face each other, and the left and right edges of the drain plate 10 are attached to the L-shaped portions. By placing the parts on it, it is held so as to be movable in the front and rear directions as described above.

In the above configuration, when performing steam cooking, the electric heaters 3, 4, and 14 are energized.

As a result, the food placed on the table 5 is immediately heated by the heaters 3 and 4, and is steamed by the steam ejected from the nozzle 6 from the steam generator 12.

That is, water sent from the water storage tank 15 through the pipe 17 is converted into steam by the electric heater 14, and this steam is ejected from the nozzle 6 into the heating chamber 2 through the pipe 20.

Here, after the above-mentioned steam is used to steam and heat the food to be cooked, it condenses on the inner wall of the heating chamber 2 and the inner wall of the door 7, and this condensation is carried out at the lower end of the door 7 and under the front opening 8 of the heating chamber 2. The drain receiver drips onto the gutter 9 from the edge, and the drain receiver is collected on the drain pan 10 through the small hole 11 of the gutter.

When the drain plate 10 is full of drain, pull it out to the front and throw it away.
．． When inserted between the outer casing 1 and the outer casing 1, the legs 21 restrict the side edges of the drain tray 10 from moving in the lateral direction.
It can be installed in a predetermined position below.

As described above, in this invention, legs are provided on the outer bottom surface of the casing, and a drain tray is installed below the lower edge of the door, with both sides movably held by the legs in the front-back direction. Even if condensate drips from the door when the door is opened, the drain can be collected by the gutter and reliably collected in the drain pan, which has the advantage of not contaminating the installation stand etc. with the condensate. In addition, the drain tray that receives the drain is installed by inserting it from the front below the outer casing, making it easy to dispose of the drain, and the legs of the outer casing restrict lateral movement. Therefore, it can always be installed at a predetermined position below the outer casing, and since the legs are used, there is no need to add a special structure, and it can be manufactured with a simple structure.
