Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of barbecue grill technology, and more specifically, to a food cooking device. Background Technology
[0002] During grilling, dripping food and seasonings not only affect cooking quality but can also pose safety hazards. In traditional grill designs, the heat source is usually located at the bottom of the grill, such as charcoal, gas nozzles, or electric heating elements, while the food is suspended and heated via a grill rack or pan. Due to the relatively large gaps in the grill rack, small pieces of food or loose seasonings can easily fall directly onto the food. Furthermore, the high temperature causes grease to liquefy rapidly, dripping onto the heat source and potentially causing flash fires and excessive smoke. The high temperatures generated by flash fires can cause the food surface to char, producing potential carcinogens such as benzo[a]pyrene, thus compromising food safety. Summary of the Invention
[0003] This utility model aims to solve one of the technical problems in related technologies to a certain extent. To this end, the embodiments of this utility model propose a food cooking device that effectively collects and drains oil through a wavy grill rack, an oil collection trough, and an inclined grill rack, thereby reducing flash burning and smoke and improving food safety.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is: to provide a food cooking device, comprising:
[0005] The furnace body is equipped with a heat source;
[0006] The grilling rack has a wavy surface with continuous crests and troughs, and is placed obliquely above the heat source. The troughs are used to collect grease and guide the grease to the lower side of the grilling rack.
[0007] An oil collection trough is provided on the oven body, located on the lower side of the baking rack, to receive the grease that flows through the trough.
[0008] By adopting the above structure, this utility model effectively improves the problem of oil and seasoning dripping during cooking, improves the quality of baked food, and reduces safety hazards.
[0009] First, the wavy grill rack, with its continuous crests and troughs, ensures that the food is heated evenly during grilling. At the same time, the troughs collect and drain the oil, reducing the possibility of oil dripping directly onto the heat source, thereby reducing the risk of flash fire and smoke production.
[0010] Secondly, the oil collection trough is located on the lower side of the grill rack, which can effectively collect the grease that flows through the trough, preventing grease from accumulating inside the furnace body, thereby reducing equipment corrosion and extending service life. At the same time, the oil collection trough is easy to disassemble and clean, making equipment maintenance more convenient.
[0011] In addition, the inclined arrangement of the grill rack further optimizes the flow path of the oil, allowing it to collect in the oil collection tank more quickly, reducing oil residue on the surface of the food, improving the taste of the food, and reducing the fire hazard caused by hot oil dripping.
[0012] In summary, this utility model, by optimizing the grill mesh structure and grease collection method, not only improves cooking efficiency and food safety, but also extends the service life and maintenance convenience of the equipment, making it suitable for the improvement and upgrading of home and commercial ovens.
[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a side plate is provided on the side of the oil collecting trough away from the grill rack, and the height of the side wall of the side plate is higher than the height of the opening of the oil collecting trough; the upper end of the side plate is bent to form a baffle, and when the edge of the grill rack abuts against the baffle, a gap H1 is formed between the trough and the side wall of the side plate, so that the grease flows into the oil collecting trough; by bending the upper end of the side plate to form a baffle, it is ensured that when the edge of the grill rack contacts the baffle, a gap H1 is formed between the trough and the side wall of the side plate, thereby effectively guiding the grease to flow smoothly into the oil collecting trough and avoiding the problem of trough blockage caused by the edge of the grill rack being tightly attached to the surface of the side plate.
[0014] According to one embodiment of this utility model, the food cooking device further includes an oil collecting cup, which is detachably mounted on the furnace body to collect grease from the oil collecting tank; it is used to centrally collect and uniformly process the grease flowing out of the oil collecting tank. The detachable design facilitates cleaning and replacement of the oil collecting cup, preventing grease accumulation inside the equipment and improving maintenance convenience and service life.
[0015] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the oil collecting tank is provided with an oil leakage hole, and the oil collecting cup is connected to the oil collecting tank through the oil leakage hole to collect grease.
[0016] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the oil leakage hole is a flanged hole; this allows grease to enter the oil collection cup more smoothly, reducing the possibility of residue and blockage, and improving the oil discharge efficiency of the device.
[0017] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the slope between the crests and troughs of the grill is provided with heat dissipation holes; this allows the high-temperature airflow generated by the heat source to pass through the heat dissipation holes and directly heat the food, enhancing the heat convection effect, thereby improving the uniformity of heating of the ingredients and speeding up the cooking process.
[0018] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the slope is provided with louvers, wherein the side opening of the louvers is used to receive grease dripping from the heat dissipation holes and guide the grease to the trough; thereby preventing grease from dripping directly onto the heat source and reducing the generation of sudden combustion and excessive smoke.
[0019] This design not only optimizes the oil collection path, but also reduces oil residue on the grill surface to a certain extent, improving cooking hygiene. At the same time, it avoids high-temperature carbonization of oil, improving food safety and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0020] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the oven body is provided with a raised plate, the raised plate being located on the high side of the baking rack; and / or
[0021] The trough on the lower side of the grill is provided with a notch; even if the trough on the lower side abuts against the side plate, the grease in the trough can still flow smoothly into the oil collection tank through the notch, avoiding grease retention due to the trough being blocked by the baffle.
[0022] This design further optimizes the grease flow path, ensuring smooth grease drainage, reducing grease buildup, improving the equipment's anti-clogging ability, while also reducing cleaning difficulty and enhancing the ease of maintenance and lifespan of the cooking device.
[0023] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the raised plate has a V-shaped groove adapted to the trough; so that the baking rack can be securely fitted on the raised plate and prevent the baking rack from sliding or shifting during use.
[0024] According to one embodiment of the present invention, one or both sides of the grilling rack are bent to form an overlapping edge, and two adjacent grilling racks are stacked and spliced together by the overlapping edge to achieve a stable connection, which facilitates the expansion of the grilling rack area to adapt to different cooking needs.

[0048] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model. Example 1
[0049] like Figure 1-14 As shown, this embodiment discloses a food cooking apparatus, including:
[0050] Furnace body 20, equipped with a heat source;
[0051] The grilling rack 10 has a wavy surface with continuous crests 11 and troughs 12, and is placed obliquely above the heat source. The troughs 12 are used to collect grease and guide the grease to the lower side of the grilling rack 10.
[0052] The oil collection tank 22 is provided on the furnace body 20 and located on the lower side of the baking rack 10 to receive the grease that flows through the trough 12.
[0053] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the oven body 20 is equipped with an openable and closable top cover, which can be opened or closed as needed. A thermometer 24 is installed on the surface of the top cover. This thermometer 24 is used to detect and display the internal temperature of the oven body 20 in real time, so that the user can easily grasp the temperature changes inside the oven and make corresponding adjustments. In this embodiment, the heat source of the oven body 20 uses natural gas as fuel. The oven body 20 is equipped with a regulating valve 25, which is used not only to control the on / off of the natural gas, but also to precisely regulate the supply of natural gas, thereby achieving fine control of the heat. Inside the oven body 20, a heat spreader 23 is provided. The function of the heat spreader 23 is to guide the flame generated by the combustion of natural gas and distribute it evenly, so as to ensure a more balanced temperature inside the oven and thus optimize the cooking effect. The grill rack 10 is suspended above the heat spreader 23, so that the food can fully receive heat conduction and radiation heating from the heat source. In addition, in other embodiments, the choice of heat source is not limited to natural gas, but can also use combustible solid fuels or liquid fuels to meet different usage needs.
[0054] Further optimizing the design, in this embodiment, the grill rack 10 adopts an inclined arrangement with a lower front and higher rear, allowing the front of the oven body 20 to better collect grease. Therefore, an oil collection groove 22 is specially provided at the front of the oven body 20, while a raised plate 21 is provided at the rear to support the rear end of the grill rack 10, forming a certain angle. The rear part of the grill rack 10 rests firmly on the raised plate 21, and the surface of the raised plate 21 has a V-shaped groove 21a that matches the shape of the trough 12, ensuring that the grill rack 10 can be firmly fitted and does not easily slip. The grill rack 10 has a wave-shaped cross-section along the front-to-back direction. In this embodiment, the wave shape adopts a triangular wave design, that is, the slope between the crest 11 and the trough 12 is distributed at an angle. In other embodiments, the slope can also adopt different structural designs, such as an inwardly concave arc surface or an outwardly convex arc surface, to meet different usage needs and cooking effects.
[0055] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the oil collection groove 22 is designed as a long strip, the length of which matches the total width of the two grill racks 10, so as to collect the dripping oil during grilling to the maximum extent. The two sides of each grill rack 10 are bent to form a V-shaped overlapping edge 15. This overlapping edge 15 not only matches the contour of the trough 12, but also allows two adjacent grill racks 10 to be spliced together in a stacked manner, thereby improving the stability of the grill rack 10 and optimizing the stress on the overall structure, making it more robust and durable during use.
[0056] Specifically, in combination Figure 6-7 As shown, in this embodiment, the oil collecting trough 22 has a side plate 22b on the side away from the grill rack 10, and the height of the side wall of the side plate 22b is higher than the height of the opening of the oil collecting trough 22. The upper end of the side plate 22b is bent to form a baffle 22d. When the edge of the grill rack 10 abuts against the baffle 22d, a gap H1 is formed between the trough 12 and the side wall of the side plate 22b, so that the grease flows into the oil collecting trough 22. By bending the upper end of the side plate 22b to form the baffle 22d, it is ensured that when the edge of the grill rack 10 contacts the baffle 22d, a gap H1 is formed between the trough 12 and the side wall of the side plate 22b, thereby effectively guiding the grease to flow smoothly into the oil collecting trough 22 and avoiding the problem of the trough 12 being blocked due to the edge of the grill rack 10 being close to the surface of the side plate 22b.
[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the opening of the oil collecting trough 22 faces upwards to facilitate the collection of dripping oil during cooking and prevent overflow. A side plate 22b is provided on its outer side, the height of which is higher than the opening of the oil collecting trough 22, creating a dedicated space inside the oil collecting trough 22 for the grill rack 10 to extend into, ensuring the grill rack 10 can be placed stably and is not prone to slipping. A baffle 22d is formed by bending the upper end of the side plate 22b inwards, and the width of the baffle 22d in the inward and outward directions is smaller than the overall width of the opening of the oil collecting trough 22.
[0058] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the rear end of the grill rack 10 is tightly abutted against the raised plate 21 to ensure it maintains a stable tilt, while the front end has a certain gap H2 between it and the edge of the side plate 22b. This gap H2 facilitates the placement of the grill rack 10, allowing it to be positioned more smoothly above the heat source. In addition, this gap H2 can reduce friction between the grill rack 10 and the side plate 22b to some extent, extending the service life of the grill rack 10.
[0059] Combination Figure 10 As shown, in some other embodiments, the trough 12 on the lower side of the grill 10 is provided with a notch 12a; even if the trough 12 on the lower side abuts against the side plate 22b, the grease in the trough 12 can still flow smoothly into the oil collection groove 22 through the notch 12a, avoiding grease retention caused by the trough 12 being closed by the baffle 22d.
[0060] Specifically, in combination Figure 8 As shown, the food cooking device also includes an oil collection cup 30, which is detachably mounted on the furnace body 20 to collect grease from the oil collection tank 22; it is used to centrally collect and uniformly process the grease flowing out of the oil collection tank 22. The detachable design makes the oil collection cup 30 easy to clean and replace, preventing grease from accumulating inside the equipment and improving the ease of maintenance and service life of the equipment.
[0061] Combination Figure 7 As shown, the bottom 22a of the oil collecting tank 22 is provided with an oil leakage hole 22c. The oil collecting cup 30 is connected to the oil collecting tank 22 through the oil leakage hole 22c to collect grease. The oil leakage hole 22c is a flanged hole; this allows grease to enter the oil collecting cup 30 more smoothly, reducing the possibility of residue and blockage, and improving the oil discharge efficiency of the device.
[0062] Specifically, in combination Figure 10-14 As shown, the slope between the crests 11 and troughs 12 of the grill 10 is provided with heat dissipation holes 13. The slope is provided with louvers 14, wherein the side openings 14a of the louvers 14 are used to collect grease dripping from the heat dissipation holes 13 and guide the grease to the troughs 12.
[0063] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the grill rack 10 is integrally formed using sheet metal technology to ensure its structural stability and durability, thereby improving its service life. Specifically, the grill rack 10 is made from a single piece of metal sheet, precisely cut to the dimensions required by the design to ensure the integrity and consistency of the overall structure. Subsequently, the metal sheet is finely processed using a stamping process to form regularly arranged heat dissipation holes 13, thereby enhancing air circulation, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the grill rack 10, optimizing the uniform distribution of heat during cooking, and reducing localized overheating.
[0064] Furthermore, during the stamping process, the louver 14 structure is further processed. Specifically, the louver 14 structure is formed by using one side of the punch to cut the material, while the rest of the punch stretches and deforms the material, so that the metal plate forms an undulating shape with one side open.
[0065] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the vertical projection of the heat dissipation hole 13 falls into the side opening 14a of the louver 14, so that after the grease falls through the heat dissipation hole 13, it is collected by the side opening 14a and guided to the trough 12.
[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, some of the oil or sauce released during the heating process drips onto the slope of the grill rack 10. Because the slope has a certain angle, this oil or sauce flows along the slope and gradually collects in the trough 12. The trough 12 acts as a drainage channel, allowing the oil or sauce to be smoothly guided into the oil collection tank 22, thereby effectively reducing liquid accumulation on the surface of the grill rack 10 and preventing excessive oil buildup from affecting the heating effect.
[0067] Meanwhile, some grease or sauce will still drip directly through the heat dissipation holes 13 of the grill rack 10. Under the influence of gravity, this grease or sauce will further flow into the side openings 14a of the louvers 14. The special design of the louvers 14 allows them to collect and guide this dripping grease, and through the guiding effect of the side openings 14a, it is discharged in a specific direction to the troughs 12, avoiding the generation of oil fumes and improving the cleanliness and service life of the entire device.
