Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to an electric cooking device such as a griddle or a pot equipped with a heater.

Conventionally, this type of electric cooker has a grill plate or pot with a sheath heater cast or welded on the bottom and fixed to a frame or body made of heat-resistant plastic or the like. When cleaning after cooking, the frame and body can get in the way, and water can accumulate inside, causing problems with insulation, so washing with water is usually prohibited.

Therefore, recently, in order to make it easier to wash the grill plates and pots with water, devices have been developed in which the grill plates and pots can be attached to and removed from the frame or the body.

However, with this cooker, if the grill plate or pot is removed from the frame or body, for example, when the grill plate or pot is placed directly on a table, etc., and the electricity is applied, the grill plate or pot will be heated. This has disadvantages such as burning the table and causing a fire.

The present invention was devised in order to solve these problems in the prior art, and its purpose is to connect the electrical connector to the cooker without setting the cooker main body in the exterior body. To provide an electric cooker in which electricity is not supplied to the main body even when connected to the main body.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail according to the illustrated embodiments.

A is an electric cooker, and is composed of a cooker main body 1, an exterior body 2, and an electric connector 3.

The cooking device main body 1 has a heater 4 attached to its lower surface, and a pair of terminal pins 5, 5 facing downward at its tips. A heat-sensitive pipe 6 is provided.

The exterior body 2 has banana terminals 7, 7 in the portion where the cooking device main body 1 is set and where the terminal pins 5, 5 are located.
are provided, and male terminals 9, 9 connected to the terminals 7, 7 by conductors 8, 8 are provided so as to protrude outward in parallel to both sides of the axis of the heat-sensitive pipe 6. .

The banana terminals 7, 7 are erected on the receiving plate 2a protruding inside the exterior body 2, and the electrical conductors 8, 8 are connected to the lower part of the terminals 7, 7, so that they extend across the surface of the receiving plate 2a. and are connected to proximal ends 9a, 9a of male terminals 9, 9 disposed along the inner surface of the exterior body 2 and protruding into the terminal device 2b.

The base ends 9 a , 9 a , the conductors 8 , 8 , and the banana terminals 7 , 7 are covered with a cover 10 , and the cover 10 has insertion holes 10 a for the terminal pins 5 , 5 and a heat-sensitive pipe 6 . A drop-in notch (not shown) is made, and the banana terminals 7, 7 face below the through hole 10a.

On the outside of the exterior body 2, surrounding the male terminals 9, 9, and
, an outer cylinder 2C into which the electrical connector 3 is fitted is formed.

A through hole (not shown) through which a heat-sensitive rod 11 (described later) passes is formed between the male terminals 9, 9 of the terminal device 2b inside the outer cylinder 2C.

The electrical connector 3 has terminal holes 12 and 12 formed in its end surface 3a into which the male terminals 9 are fitted, and the heat-sensitive rod 11 protrudes from the center thereof.

An adjustment knob 13 is provided on the top surface 3b to vary the on/off point of the thermostat.

Next, the main functions of the electric cooking device A configured as described above will be explained separately when the cooking device main body 1 is set to the exterior body 2 and when it is not set.

■ When setting The cooking device main body 1 is placed in a predetermined position on the exterior body 2.

At this time, the terminal pins 5, 5 of the main body 1 are connected to the through hole 10.
a , 10 a and is fitted into the banana terminals 7 , 7 , and as a result, the male terminals 9 , 9 and the heater 4 are connected via the conductors 8 , 8 to provide a set state.

Then, the electrical connector 3 is connected to the terminal device 2b of the exterior body 2.
When inserted in a predetermined manner, the heat-sensitive rod 11 passes through the hole and is fitted into the heat-sensitive pipe 6, and the male terminals 9, 9 are fitted into the terminal holes 12 and 12, respectively, and the current is turned on. Become.

(2) When not set After pulling out the electrical connector 3 from the terminal device 2b in the above-mentioned set state, remove the cooking device main body 1 from the exterior body 2 to set it to the non-set state.

Even if the electric connector 3 is fitted to the cooking device main body 1 in this non-set state, only the heat-sensitive rod 11 and the heat-sensitive pipe 6 are fitted, but the terminal pins 5, 5 and the terminal hole 12. Since the directions are different, the mating will not take place.

As described above, in the present invention, a heater is attached to the bottom surface and a terminal pin is provided at the tip of the cooking device, which points downward. An electrical connector having a banana terminal, an exterior body provided with a male terminal connected to the terminal with an electrical conductor protruding outward, and an electrical connector having a terminal hole into which the male terminal is fitted. Since the electric cooker is constructed, even if an electric connector is connected to the cooker itself, electricity will not be applied to the cooker itself, thus preventing accidents such as fires due to incorrect use. It has the effect of being able to prevent such problems.
