Definitions

  • the present invention concerns the technical field of steam cooking appliances.
  • Steam cookers have a cooking enclosure disposed on a base for producing steam.
  • the steam production base can have or not have a self-contained means for heating water.
  • the cooking enclosure generally has one or several superposed cooking vessels closed by a cover.
  • the cooking vessels have a bottom provided with perforations for the passage of steam, as well as a peripheral lateral wall.
  • the bottom of the cooking vessels can be removable to obtain one cooking enclosure with a larger size. If need be, a tray for recovery of juices can be disposed under a cooking vessel.
  • the present invention provides a steam cooker having a particularly compact storage configuration.
  • the present invention in particular, provides a steam cooker having a particularly compact storage configuration, without requiring restricting manipulations.
  • the present invention also provides a steam cooker having a particularly compact storage configuration, without requiring particular cleaning restrictions.
  • a steam cooker comprises a cooking element having a peripheral lateral wall intended to be placed on a pedestal having a steam production base surmounted, if need be, by a vessel for recovering juices and/or a cooking support, by the fact that the cooking element can be disposed in an inverted position on the pedestal, the peripheral lateral wall at least partially enveloping the pedestal.
  • a construction permits the attainment of a particularly compact storage configuration.
  • the user does not have need to handle the pedestal of the steam cooker in order to obtain this configuration.
  • the cooking element can have a bottom in order to form a cooking vessel.
  • the bottom of the cooking vessel can be removable.
  • the cooking element can also be without a bottom.
  • a cooking support is then disposed between the cooking element and the steam production base. The cooking support can occupy a very reduced height.
  • the cooking element has a bottom resting on a pedestal when the cooking element is disposed in the inverted position on said pedestal.
  • This arrangement permits avoidance of contact of the lateral walls of the cooking element with the working surface.
  • This arrangement equally permits wedging of the lateral walls of the cooking element with the lateral walls of the pedestal of the steam cooker to be avoided.
  • the cooking element forms a cooking vessel.
  • the steam cooker can advantageously have several superposed cooking elements each having a peripheral lateral wall, these cooking elements being nested to obtain a compact storage.
  • the smallest cooking element is disposed on the pedestal and the other elements are superposed by increasing size.
  • the cooking element placed in the upper position is the largest cooking element.
  • the cooking elements can be inverted on one another for storage.
  • the steam cooker comprises a lid provided to close the cooking element that is furthest from the pedestal, the lid having a skirt able to envelop the lower part of the peripheral lateral wall of said cooking element disposed in the inverted position.
  • This arrangement permits protection of the bottom of the upper cooking element inverted on another vessel, or the bottom of the single inverted cooking element on the pedestal of the steam cooker, while retaining a good compactness.
  • this arrangement permits avoiding the entry of dust into the cooking element or cooking elements as well as into the pedestal.
  • the skirt comes to bear on the lower part of the peripheral lateral wall of said cooking element disposed in the inverted position.
  • the vessel for recovering juices has lateral recesses intended to facilitate gripping.
  • gripping organs are disposed on the upper part of the cooking element or elements. This arrangement permits retention of a compact stacking while facilitating gripping of the cooking element or elements.
  • the pedestal has a retractable filling device. This arrangement permits the compactness of storage to be reconciled with ease of filling.
  • the retractable filling device is arranged under the vessel for recovering juices.
  • This arrangement permits a better compactness than an arrangement in the heating base.
  • the arrangement under the vessel for recovering juices occupies only a part of the surface of the vessel for recovering juices while an arrangement in the heating base occupies the totality of the surface of the heating base over a given height, because of sealing problems impeding a filling up to the level of the retractable filling device.
  • the arrangement of the retractable filling device under the vessel for recovering juices permits a lower height.
  • the retractable filling device is arranged under a raised part of the bottom of the vessel for recovering juices. This arrangement permits optimization of the space occupied by the vessel for recovering juices without affecting its capacity.
  • the retractable filling device has a drawer arranged under the bottom of the vessel for recovering juices.
  • the retractable filling device can have a movable lateral wall forming a filling chute.
  • the lateral wall is for example movable about a horizontal axis of rotation.
  • the drawer is pivotably mounted under the bottom of the vessel for recovering juices along an axis of rotation.
  • Other forms of construction such as a slidably mounted drawer can equally be envisioned.
  • an outer annular lateral wall of the pedestal surrounds a rice bowl disposed in inverted position on the pedestal. This arrangement permits conserving a good compactness in the storage position despite the storage of a supplementary accessory.
  • the rice bowl has a handle housed above the raised part of the bottom of the vessel for recovering juices. This arrangement permits reconciling compactness with ease of gripping.
  • the handle extends from a lateral face of the rice bowl, said lateral face being curved inwardly toward the interior of the rice bowl.
  • the cooking element disposed in an inverted position on the pedestal rests on the rice bowl.
  • the base has gripping organs.
  • FIG. 1 is a front view in cross section of a first example of construction of a steam cooker according to the invention, of which the pedestal has a heating base and a vessel for recovering juices, this steam cooker being represented in its position of use,
  • FIG. 2 is a front view in cross section of the first example of construction of the steam cooker according to the invention represented in its storage position.
  • FIG. 3 is a side view in cross section of the first example of construction of the steam cooker according to the invention, represented in its storage position without the upper cooking vessels or the lid.
