Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to an electric range used as kitchen equipment in general households.

Conventional technology Conventionally, this type of cooking device
The device shown in the above publication is known, and has a configuration as shown in FIG. That is, a stove heater 3 is arranged on the top plate 2 of the main body 1, and a roaster chamber 4 is provided inside the main body 1. The front side of the roaster chamber 4 can be opened and closed by a door 5, and the food to be cooked can be opened and closed. It is now used to take things in and out. A roaster heater (not shown) is provided in the upper part of the roaster chamber 4, and an exhaust port 6 that communicates with the upper part of the roaster chamber 4 and opens above the top plate 2 is provided. Reference numeral 7 denotes an operation section provided in front of the main body 1, in which turning on and off of the stove heater 3 and the roaster heater and adjusting a heat amount regulator (not shown) are performed from the outside using a knob 8. ing.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention In such a conventional configuration, the temperature inside the roaster chamber 4 reaches approximately 300° C. due to the heat generated by the roaster heater. The heat is dissipated from the casing of the roaster chamber 4, and the top plate 2 above the roaster chamber 4 becomes particularly hot, causing thermal distortion and the risk of burns. In addition, the inside of the main body 1 is also heated, requiring a heat shield plate for insulating the heat amount regulator and an excessive amount of installation space to reduce the temperature. Furthermore, when cooking in the roaster chamber 4, the food to be cooked is taken in and out through the front door 5, and the top plate 2 and the top of the kitchen sink are usually installed at approximately the same height, and the stove is not used for cooking. The ideal height for cooking with a heater (usually 80 to 85 cm) is the ideal height, but the position of the front door 5 is lower than this, which is inconvenient for cooking operations. In addition, although the inner surface of the roaster chamber 4 is cleaned by inserting one's hand, it is difficult to clean and care for, and as the roaster chamber 4 is used over and over again, the dirt increases, resulting in a foul odor from the fish oil and other substances attached. Furthermore, it is difficult to visually check the doneness of the food in the roaster chamber 4, resulting in failures such as over-burning of the food.

The present invention solves these problems,
To provide an electric range equipped with a roaster that does not cause heat distortion or temperature rise on the top plate, has good cooking operability, allows you to clearly see the cooking status without failure, and is easy to clean after use. The purpose is to

Means for Solving the Problem In order to solve this problem, the present invention provides a back plate having a vent at the bottom of the electric range main body, a stove heater on the top top plate, and a heater for the stove on the top top plate. An opening is formed in the plate, and a metal fitting for rotatably supporting the roaster heater is provided under the top plate near the bottom of this opening to rotatably attach the roaster heater, and a rectangular cylindrical roaster casing is installed in the opening. A roaster heater is placed in a horizontal state within the roaster housing, and a grill grate is placed at the upper end opening of the roaster housing, and the roaster has an upper opening larger than the lower end opening of the roaster housing and a juice reservoir. A juice pan is removably installed on the back plate below the roaster casing in the main body, and with the grill grate removed and the roaster heater rotated upward, the roaster casing and the juice pan are inserted into the opening of the top plate. It can be attached and detached from the section.

Function: With this configuration, cooking can be performed while watching the cooking progress on the top plate. Furthermore, the heat of the roaster heater rises together with the radiant heat as air is taken in from the lower end opening of the roaster housing, thereby heating the food to be cooked. The juice tray placed below the roaster housing can be taken out after removing the grill and roaster housing by rotating the roaster heater. As described above, the heat generated by the roaster heater is effectively transmitted to the food on the grill, reducing the temperature rise within the roaster body due to radiant heat from the roaster housing.
