The present invention relates to an insulated serving table, and more particularly, to an insulated serving table to serve cooked foods or the like in a food box (hotel fan) to keep the food in a maintained state.

In general, the serving table is to maintain the warm state in order to prevent the food from cooling in the group catering facility, the reservoir is provided in the lower portion of the food container (also known as a hotel fan) containing the food, the water in the reservoir It is largely composed of a heater for heating.

The water in the reservoir evaporates by the heating of the heater to become steam, and the steam warms the food compartment to maintain the temperature of the food inside, so that a warm meal is made.

Such a food stand is used to replenish the water from the food tank when the water tank is replenished by lack of water, or when the food box lacks food to replace it with a new food tray. Done.

By the way, this serving table is a structure that keeps warm by the temperature of the water vapor, so that water vapor condenses on the lower part of the food box, water droplets are formed, and when replacing the food tray, the water drop falls into the food contained in the neighboring food box It can cause polluting the plants, making them unclean.

In addition, the floor is wet when it falls to the floor is also unable to keep clean.

In addition, when there is not enough water in the reservoir, the conventional serving table simply turns on the water shortage lamp to notify the manager, but at this time, the heater for heating the water is in a state in which power is continuously applied, which causes a problem of failure of the heater. .

Accordingly, the present invention, in view of the conventional problems as described above, by placing a perforated plate formed with a plurality of perforations between the upper side of the reservoir and the lower side of the food compartment so that the heat generated from the reservoir is transferred to the food box and steam is directly The purpose of the present invention is to provide a warm meal stand that minimizes condensation of water droplets to keep it clean by minimizing contact with the lower part of the box, and also prevents damage to the heater by cutting off the power of the heater when the water in the reservoir is insufficient. .

Insulation board of the present invention for achieving the above object,

A reservoir is provided at the top of the body, and a heater is located in the reservoir to heat and evaporate the water contained in the reservoir, and a tray containing food in the upper portion of the reservoir is supported by the body and placed in the heat of the water heated from the reservoir. It is configured to keep the food by, and is provided between the upper side of the reservoir and the lower side of the food box is provided with a perforated plate formed with a plurality of perforations to cover the top of the reservoir.

In addition, the water tank is provided with a water level detector, the control unit for controlling the presence or absence of the power supply of the heater in accordance with the detection state of the water level detector is configured.

The present invention configured as described above will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a view showing the front of the heat retaining table according to the present invention, the lower portion 15 in the lower part of the front portion of the body 1 formed of the enclosure to accommodate the goods in the interior of the body 1 The upper portion of the lower section 15 is provided with a power switch 17 for controlling the present invention, a temperature controller 19, a buzzer 21 for displaying an operation state, an operation lamp 23, a power supply. The control panel 13 provided with the lamp 25, the water shortage lamp 27, etc. is provided.

In the upper part of the body 1, a food box 5 for holding food and serving food is placed on the body 1, which is placed in the lower part of the food box 5, that is, in the upper part of the body 1 in FIG. The water reservoir 3 is formed as shown in FIG.

The food compartment 5 of the reservoir 3 is formed to have a width and a depth that can be inserted and mounted therein, and a space for mounting the heater 7 is provided in the lower center portion of the reservoir 3 so that the heating element is provided. The phosphorus heater 7 is mounted.

The heater 7 heats the water contained in the water storage tank 3, whereby water vapor is generated to transfer heat to the food box 5.

However, as mentioned in the related art, water condensation occurs in the lower part of the food compartment 5 by steam, so that the perforated plate 10 having a plurality of perforations as shown in FIG. To minimize the contact of water vapor directly to the bottom of the bin (5).

To this end, in order to completely cover the upper portion of the water stored in the reservoir 3, a perforated plate 10 having a width corresponding to the upper area of the reservoir 3 is positioned between the upper side of the reservoir 3 and the space below the food tray. In addition, the perforated plate 10 is preferably configured to be seated from the top by forming a separate protrusion on the side wall of the reservoir (3).

Of course, the method for mounting the perforated plate 10 to the inside of the reservoir 3 may be configured in various ways.

Therefore, when the water is heated by the heater 7, water vapor having heat is generated, and the water is first condensed to the lower part of the perforated plate 10 by first contacting the perforated plate 10 while evaporating to the upper portion. The heat rises through the perforations and is transferred to the food tray 5.

Of course, some water vapor may rise through the perforated plate 10 to be delivered to the food box 5, which is a much smaller level than the case where the perforated plate 10 does not exist.

The drain valve 11 located at the bottom of the reservoir 3 is a valve for discharging the water of the reservoir 3 to the outside.

On the other hand, the reservoir 3 is provided with a water level detector (9) to cut off the power of the heater (7) in case of lack of water, for this purpose, the control unit 29 is insufficient water as a result of the detection from the water level detector (9) In this case, the buzzer 21 and the water shortage lamp 27 are driven to inform the manager of the time to replenish the water, and at the same time, the operation of the heater 7 is stopped by cutting off the power supplied to the heater 7. This prevents damage to the heater due to overheating.

In addition, the control unit 29 turns on the power lamp 25 and turns off the operation lamp 23 to let the manager know that the operation is not performed.

Temperature controller 19 is a means for setting the temperature by the user, although not shown, if the temperature sensor is installed inside the reservoir 3 and the temperature is set by the manager, the control unit 29 to reach the set temperature By controlling the driving of the heater (7) is to ensure that the food box (5) can always maintain a constant temperature.

As described above, the heat retention table according to the present invention is located between the upper side of the reservoir and the lower side of the food box to place the perforated plate formed with a plurality of perforations so that the heat generated from the reservoir is transferred to the food box and the steam directly in the lower portion of the food tray By minimizing contact with the water to minimize the condensation of the water droplets to maintain a clean state, and also has the effect of preventing the damage to the heater by shutting off the power of the heater when the water in the reservoir is insufficient.
