Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent dust from coming in, by providing a dust cover between a slot for a sliding type changing switch and a face plate, and to prevent an oven body from moving, by constituting a sliding type changing switch so as to slide in the vertical direction, in an electric oven equipped with a plurality of heaters capable of being switched over. CONSTITUTION:A selection shaft 6 of a changing switch 4 of sliding type can freely be slid vertically along a long slot hole 7. The peripheral edge 7a of a slot 7 is protruded to the inside. A dust cover 8 is provided between the changing switch 4 and a face plate 5. The selection shaft 6 is pierced through the hole 9 of a dust cover 8 so as to move closely, being contacted to the cover. By this structure, dust setting in from the slot 7 is prevented from coming farther into an oven by the dust cover. In addition, the oven body itself is prevented from being moved when the selection shaft is operated, by sliding the shaft in the vertical direction.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an electric range equipped with a plurality of heaters and a changeover switch for switching between these heaters.

Conventional configuration and its problems In this type of conventional electric range, switching between multiple heaters is performed using a slide type changeover switch. Therefore, there was a problem in that when the changeover switch was slid, the electric range itself would slide from side to side. In addition, the knob shaft of the changeover switch had a structure that simply passed through the front panel of the electric range, so when cooking by heating a cooking pot etc. with the heater at the top of the electric range, If the water inside spills, there is a problem that the water drips onto the front panel of the electric range and hits the changeover switch through the through hole of the knob shaft of the changeover switch. There was also the problem that the objects such as the like could get in there and hit the changeover switch.

OBJECT OF THE INVENTION The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and prevents the electric range itself from moving when a slide type changeover switch for switching between multiple heaters is operated. The purpose is to prevent water, dirt, etc. from coming into direct contact with the changeover switch.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the present invention includes an electric range main body equipped with a plurality of heaters on the upper part, and a mounting plate attached to the electric range main body to switch between the plurality of heaters. comprising a slide type changeover switch and a decorative plate arranged in parallel in front of the mounting plate, and the decorative plate is provided with a length so that a knob shaft of the slide type changeover switch can freely slide in the vertical direction; The elongated hole has a peripheral edge protruding inward, and a long dustproof cover with an elongated hole is provided between the slide type changeover switch and the decorative plate so as to be slidable in the vertical direction. In addition to providing a hole through which the knob shaft of the switch passes, raised portions are provided on both left and right sides that overlap the peripheral edges of the elongated holes. According to this configuration, the knob shaft of the slide type changeover switch can be moved vertically. Because it is slidable, the electric range itself will not move when you slide the changeover switch, and there is a long wall installed on the decorative board between the slide type changeover switch and the decorative board. A long dust-proof cover is provided that can be slid vertically, and this dust-proof cover is provided with standing parts on both left and right sides that overlap with the periphery of the elongated hole.
Water, dirt, etc. during cooking will no longer come into direct contact with the changeover switch, and as a result, the changeover switch will no longer suffer from poor insulation or failure.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In Figs. 1 to 3, reference numeral 1 denotes an electric range main body equipped with a plurality of heaters 2 on the upper part, and a mounting plate 3 inside this electric range main body 1 has a slide for switching the several heaters 2. Type changeover switch 4 is installed. Reference numeral 5 denotes a decorative plate disposed in parallel in front of the mounting plate 3, and the decorative plate S has an elongated hole 7 so that the knob shaft 6 of the slide type changeover switch 4 can freely slide in the vertical direction. The peripheral edge 7a of the elongated hole 7 is made to protrude inward. Reference numeral 8 denotes a dustproof cover located between the sliding type switching switch notch 4 and the decorative plate 5, and this dustproof cover 8 is longer than the elongated hole 7 and can be slid vertically. It is set up like this. Also, this dust cover 8
is provided with a hole 9 through which the knob shaft 6 of the slide type changeover switch 4 passes through, and is provided with an upright portion 1o on both left and right sides that overlaps the peripheral edge 7a of the elongated hole 7. The upright portion 10 of the dustproof cup 8 serves as a guide to prevent the dustproof cup 8 from swinging when the knob shaft 6 of the slide type changeover switch 4 is slid in the vertical direction. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, on the flat surface of the dustproof cover 8, there is an upper side 11 and a lower side 1 r bordered by the center of the knob shaft 6, and the intervening angle is 1. This is the book that has been published.

With the above configuration, even if dirt enters through the elongated hole 7, the dirt will be caught by the dustproof cup (-8), so the dirt will not come directly onto the slide type changeover switch 4. Even if water during cooking spills and enters through the elongated hole 7 when cooking is performed by heating a cooking pot or the like with the heater 2 on the upper part of the main body 1, this water is caught by the dustproof cover 8. Since the dustproof cover 8 can be dropped downward, water will not be directly applied to the changeover switch 4, and as a result, insulation failure or failure of the changeover switch 4 can be prevented. Furthermore, since the upper side 11 and lower side 12 of the flat part of the dustproof cover 8 are colored differently with the center of the knob shaft 6 as a boundary, the knob shaft 6 can be placed in any operating position in any direction. It is possible to clearly display the

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, since the knob shaft of the slide type changeover switch can be slid vertically, the electric range itself does not move when the changeover switch is slid. In addition, between the slide type changeover switch and the decorative board, a dustproof cover with a length of υ longer than the elongated hole provided in the decorative board is provided so as to be able to slide vertically. Since there is a raised part that overlaps the periphery of the hole, there is no possibility that water or dirt during cooking will come into direct contact with the switch, which may cause poor insulation or failure of the switch. Things will go away.
