Description

[0001] The present invention relates to a gas range equipped with an air curtain device,

The present invention relates to a gas range equipped with an air curtain apparatus. More particularly, the present invention provides an air curtain device detachably coupled to a gas range main body, thereby preventing the smoke, odor, and heat generated during food cooking from being directly transferred to the cooker, The present invention relates to a gas range equipped with an air curtain device capable of performing an air-

Generally, a gas range is used to cook food by igniting gas supplied from the outside. However, when a food is cooked, the general gas range diffuses the food odor to the surroundings, and when the wind is blown around the gas range, there is a problem that the gas is extinguished by the wind.

In order to solve these problems, Korean Utility Model Registration No. 0383526 and Gas Range (hereinafter referred to as prior art document 1) have been disclosed. This is because the air curtain is installed in the gas range so that the air curtain can prevent the wind from being blown outside, and the odor and smoke generated during cooking can be prevented from being diffused and discharged immediately through the hood. The shield plate, An ignition plug for igniting a gas discharged from the gas nozzle; a flame opening provided at an upper portion of the ignition plug; and an air curtain And an air curtain unit for forming the air curtain.

The above-mentioned prior art document 1 discloses an air curtain which includes an air supply means provided with an air intake hole formed in a shield plate or a base to supply outside air to an air curtain, and a plurality of air exhaust holes formed at equal intervals on the edge of the shield plate. And a discharging means for discharging the outside air blown out by the discharging means.

However, in the above-described prior art document 1, when air is discharged through the exhaust hole, an air flow is formed in a vertical direction. Since the exhaust hole and the flame sphere are close to each other, the flame is shaken due to the influence of the discharged air, .

In addition, in the prior art document 1, when the air is not discharged, the surplus soup in the cooking process flows into the exhaust hole, so that the sanitary condition becomes unclear, and the food particles block the exhaust hole, thereby reducing the discharge amount of the air.

On the other hand, Korean Utility Model No. 341486, an integrated type gas supply unit for introducing and supplying an outside air (hereinafter referred to as "prior art document 2" hereinafter), blows out air from the outside air inlet pipe connected to the gas range main body, The air is passed through a pressure chamber provided in a lower portion of the main body through an outside air inlet pipe and then discharged into a plurality of air baffles provided in an upper plate shielding the gas range main body to form an air curtain on the upper portion of the main body.

However, in this prior art document 2, not only the box-shaped pressure chambers must be separately attached to the lower portion of the gas range main body, but the outside air inlet pipe and the gas supply port must be separately mounted to the gas range main body.

Therefore, not only the assembly cost and the manufacturing cost are excessive but also the assembly is very inconvenient, and the manufacturing time is excessively required.

In addition, in the prior art document 2, installation of the pressure chamber, the outside air inlet pipe, and the air supply pipe is very inconvenient, and the weight of the gas range becomes very heavy.
