Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a gas stove, and more particularly to a gas stove with convenient flame observation. Background Art

[0002] A gas stove is a kitchen appliance that uses a direct flame to heat the stove using a gas fuel such as liquefied petroleum gas (liquid), artificial gas, or natural gas. It is also called a gas stove, stovetop, cooktop, or stove.

[0003] A common problem with existing gas stoves is that when a large wok or frying pan is placed on the burner, the user cannot directly observe the intensity of the flame due to the obstruction of the pot from the top view, forcing the user to bend down to check the flame on the burner.

[0004] Due to people's safety awareness of flame, although the gas stove has a flame adjustment button, when using it, only by judging the burning degree of the flame with the naked eye can the user mentally accept the actual size of the flame. Therefore, when using a large pot on a gas hood, bending down to observe the flame on the burner has become a necessary operation for most people.

[0005] Obviously, bending over to observe the flame on the stove is very uncomfortable for users. Secondly, if there is oil or water in the pot, the oil splashing when bending over is more likely to come into contact with the eyes, which is very unsafe. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a gas stove which is convenient for observing flames. A reflector combination is adopted to project the image of the burner flame upward from the panel so that the user can look down and observe the flame more conveniently.

[0007] The above technical objectives of the present invention are achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0008] A gas stove for convenient flame observation comprises a panel, two burners and a switch, wherein the burners are arranged on the panel, and a first reflector is provided on the upper surface of the panel, the first reflector being inclined toward the burners and forming an angle of 45 degrees with the panel so as to project the burner flame horizontally onto the first reflector; a second reflector is provided below the panel, parallel to the first reflector, located directly below the first reflector, with a reflecting surface of the second reflector facing the first reflector so as to project the burner flame vertically projected by the first reflector horizontally; a third reflector is provided below the panel, the third reflector forming an angle of 45 degrees with the panel, with a reflecting surface of the third reflector facing the reflecting surface of the second reflector so as to project the burner flame vertically incident thereon vertically upwards; an observation window is provided on the panel, the observation window being located directly above the third reflector; the observation window and the switch are located on the same side of the panel, and the spacing between the observation window and the edge of the panel is 1-5 cm. By adopting the above technical solution, this design projects the burner flame onto the first reflector, and then uses the reflection effect of the second reflector and the third reflector to vertically project the burner flame from the observation window. As long as the user wants to lower his head to check the panel, he can clearly see the burner flame, making it more convenient for the user to observe the flame.

[0009] The observation window is located on one side of the switch to facilitate the user to observe the flame conditions conveniently.

[0010] Preferably, the observation window is covered with transparent glass.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, transparent glass reduces the risk of oil stains entering the interior of the observation window.

[0012] Preferably, the panel is provided with an input window, the first reflector is rotatably connected to the input window, the input window is provided with an elastic member for pushing the first reflector to rotate open, and the frame is provided with a barrier member for rotating and positioning the first reflector at 45 degrees; a locking assembly is provided between the input window and the first reflector to position the first reflector horizontally to the panel.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking assembly can lock the first reflector in a horizontal position, which is beneficial to reducing the space occupied by the gas stove during packaging and transportation.

[0014] Preferably, the edge of the first reflector is provided with a frame, the frame is provided with a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the input window, the elastic member is a torsion spring sleeved on the rotating shaft, one end of the torsion spring abuts against the frame, and the other end of the torsion spring abuts against the edge of the input window.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic force generated by the torsion spring can push the first emitting mirror to rotate and open.

[0016] Preferably, the barrier is a convex block fixed to the frame, and the convex block and the first reflector are arranged vertically.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the blocking and limiting function of the protrusion enables the first reflector to be positioned when it is rotated to 45 degrees.

[0018] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a socket provided on the frame, and an inserting block is slidably inserted into the socket along the edge of the window.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the locking operation of the jack and the plug block is simple.

[0020] Preferably, the upper end of the first reflector is higher than the upper end of the furnace head.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the height is set so that the first emitting mirror can reflect the flame state as much as possible.

[0022] Preferably, there are two first reflectors, and the two first reflectors correspond to two furnace heads respectively.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the conditions of the two burners can be observed. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0038] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0039] A gas stove that is easy to observe the flame, refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, it includes a panel 11 and two burners 12 and a switch 13 . The switch 13 and the burners 12 are arranged on the upper surface of the panel 11 , and each burner 12 corresponds to a switch 13 .

[0040] The panel 11 is provided with an input window 4, and the first reflector 21 is rotatably connected to the input window 4. A frame 5 is provided at the edge of the first reflector 21, and the frame 5 is provided with a rotating shaft 61. The rotating shaft 61 is rotatably connected to the input window 4. The elastic member 62 is a torsion spring sleeved on the rotating shaft 61, one end of the torsion spring abuts against the frame 5, and the other end of the torsion spring abuts against the edge of the input window 4; under the elastic force of the torsion spring, the first reflector 21 rotates open, and the mirror surface of the first reflector 21 faces the furnace head 12.

[0041] The frame 5 is provided with a barrier for rotating and positioning the first reflector 21 at 45 degrees; the barrier is a protrusion 7 fixed to the frame 5, and the protrusion 7 and the first reflector 21 are arranged vertically.

[0042] When the torsion spring pushes the frame 5 and the first reflector 21 to rotate, and when the protrusion 7 blocks the edge of the input window 4 at a 45-degree angle, the first reflector 21 is positioned. At this time, the first reflector 21 is tilted toward the burner head 12 and forms a 45-degree angle with the panel 11. The flame image of the burner head 12 can be projected parallel to the first reflector 21.

[0043] Figure 3 and Figure 4 A locking assembly is provided between the input window 4 and the first reflector 21, positioning the first reflector 21 horizontally relative to the panel 11. The locking assembly includes a socket 81 formed in the frame 5. An insert block 82 slides along the edge of the input window 4 and is inserted into the socket 81. A slot 91 is provided along the edge of the input window 4, and the insert block 82 slides within the slot 91. The insert block 82 has a shifting block 92. The two ends of the shifting block 92 and the slot 91 interfere with each other, preventing the insert block 82 from escaping the slot 91. By oscillating the shifting block 92, the end of the insert block 82 can slide out of the slot 91 and into the insert block 82.

[0044] Therefore, when the staff presses the frame 5 so that the frame 5 and the panel 11 are flush, the plug 82 can be inserted into the socket 81 to achieve the locking of the two, and due to the elastic force of the torsion spring, the vertical pressure is maintained between the plug 82 and the hole wall of the socket 81, which makes the locking effect of the plug 82 and the socket 81 more stable.

[0045] Figure 1-Figure 2The interior of the panel 11 is a cavity structure. A second reflector 22 parallel to the first reflector 21 is provided below the panel 11. The second reflector 22 is fixed to the bottom of the panel 11 by glue.

[0046] The back surface (non-reflective surface) of the second reflector 22 forms an angle of 45 degrees with the panel 11 .

[0047] The second reflector 22 is located directly below the first reflector 21 , and the reflective surface of the second reflector 22 faces the first reflector 21 so as to horizontally project the flame of the burner head 12 vertically projected by the first reflector 21 ;

[0048] A third reflector 23 is provided below the panel 11. The back of the third reflector 23 forms a 45-degree angle with the panel 11. The reflective surface of the third reflector 23 faces the reflective surface of the second reflector 22 so that the third reflector 23 can emit the flame of the burner 12 that is horizontally incident vertically upward.

[0049] The panel 11 is provided with an observation window 31 , which is located directly above the third reflector 23 ;

[0050] The observation window 31 and the switch 13 are located on the same side of the panel 11 , and the distance between the observation window 31 and the edge of the panel 11 is 3 cm.

[0051] The observation window 31 is covered with a transparent glass 32 , which is fixed to the observation window 31 by glue.

[0052] The upper end of the first reflector 21 is higher than the upper end of the furnace head 12 .

[0053] There are two first reflectors 21 , and the two first reflectors 21 correspond to the two furnace heads 12 respectively.

[0054] Working principle: Due to the projection and emission of the flame of the burner 12 by the three reflectors, the flame scene of the burner 12 can be projected from bottom to top by the panel 11, so that the user only needs to lower his head to look at the edge of the gas stove to easily observe the flame status of the burner 12, which is more convenient and easy to operate, and avoids the situation where the user bends down to explore the flame of the burner 12.

[0055] Furthermore, this design uses three reflectors for projection, which has a simple structure and low cost, and the first reflector 21 of the raised panel 11 can also be locked and made flat.

[0056] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention. The scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. All technical solutions based on the concept of the present invention are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, various improvements and modifications that do not depart from the principles of the present invention should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
