AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This invention provides a stove top shield that protects against spills and splatters, keeping them away from the stove surface while it is in use. The shield is made of a metallized fabric that can be folded off to expose one or more burners for use, while still catching spills and splatters. It is easy to wipe clean, has a decorative pattern, and a light reflecting surface to brighten the work area around the stove. Additionally, it can also protect unused burners on adjacent stoves. The technical effects of this invention are improved safety, convenience, and aesthetics for commercial and domestic stoves and cook tops.

Problems solved by technology

Kitchen stoves normally produce spills and splatters during meal preparation where stove top surfaces, burners, and catch pans beneath burners become spotted or covered with these spills and splatters.

Embodiment Construction

[0034]Referring to FIGS. 1-9 of the drawing, the present invention has a principal use with kitchen stoves 10 having gas burners 12, grates 14, catch basins 16, and contiguous stove top areas 18. The description proceeds with invention used for gas stoves. It is to be understood that gas stoves are representative of kitchen stoves and cook tops generally including electric stoves which receive full benefit of advantages of the protective shield when in use.

[0035]The shield 20 comprises a fabric 22 (FIGS. 6-8) with an outer layer 22a of metallized, preferably aluminized, flame retardant material laminated to an inner layer 22b of an aramid rip-stop knit or of aramid twill. The outer layer is silver in color to provide a light reflecting surface that brightens up the stove area. The fabric layers do not delaminate when wiped clean with a damp cloth. The resultant fabric is generally known as metallized protective fabric for use in high heat environments and is available from Gentex Co...

Abstract

A stove top shield for protecting the burners of gas and electric stoves from spills and splatters of cooking utensils on adjacent burners of the stove, the shield comprising a metallized flame retardant material in sections encasing core plates for covering one or more burners on the stove.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]This invention relates to kitchen stoves and particularly to a shield for protecting gas and electric stoves, and cook tops from splatters and spills when a stove is being used.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Kitchen stoves normally produce spills and splatters during meal preparation where stove top surfaces, burners, and catch pans beneath burners become spotted or covered with these spills and splatters. When a serious spill occurs as with a pot boiling over, immediate attention must be given to avoid baking a spill onto stove parts, the possibility of a stove fire from cooking oils, or billows of smoke from food smoldering on a hot burner. So in ordinary circumstances for sanitary and safe operation, stoves require attentive use and frequent cleaning.[0003]Gas stoves, electric ranges, and cook tops for commercial and domestic kitchens are available and used in a variety of configurations and number of burner members, and are ordinarily available in f...
