Description

The invention quick grill and cooking insert according to the preamble of claim 1 provides a gridost device for the quicker, more efficient and energy saving grilling, cooking or baking of food for use in cooking devices, which has an advantageous and inventive design of the food supports made of grid baskets at the front and at the rear with a locking possibility in a horizontal or vertical position, whereby the uniform all-round supply of hot air takes place with maximum space utilization. A further advantageous extension is the configuration with monitoring the progress of the cooking process by image transmission of the optionally provided heat-protected digital camera with illumination.A further embodiment is the portable embodiment, which is not connected to the cooking appliance, variable in size and therefore optimizes the possible applications for almost any cooking appliance and thus improves the cooking of various food, cooking product quantities and preparation speed.Determined Prior Art:According to the prior art, only a part of the numerous inventions are mentioned here, namely P 27 54 208.1-16, 697 02 031.2, G 9I 07 333.2, U1, DE 20 2011 110 072, EP 2 661 585 B1, EP 2 067 425 A1, 20 2012 007 425.3, 20 2011 110 072.7, G 89 15 074.0, DE 29815419, P 40 23 206.9, G 9I 07 333.2.Numerous cooking devices, grills, fritus hot air ovens are known which thaw, heat, and roast food by means of heat.It is of course necessary to distinguish between them according to professional or private use. Devices for professional kitchens are normally not subject to any particular size and correspond in technical equipment here, for example, to heat flowing in from the side and not from above and thus can flow around the cooking product lying horizontally on grates in a uniform manner and thus uniformly heat it. These appliances have glass doors to observe the progress of heating of the different types of food lying on the individual floors. Since the heating is effected uniformly all around, this system does not require any additional work, such as turning over and rotating the food.The more recent developments have, however, more and more devices which do not require part of the professional possibilities, but are offered for this purpose in a smaller, more space-saving and less expensive manner.However, the prior art also has disadvantages in these cooking appliances, such as: heat action, air currents predominantly from above (because the width of the appliance is then saved by increasing the height of the appliance), as a result of which overproportional heating of the material to be cooked from above and not uniformly from all sides. In particular, the underside of the material to be cooked is less exposed to the hot air flow.A small cooking chamber, which makes it necessary to load items to be cooked one above the other, in order to supply, for example, a 4-head family with sufficient French fries for each. The capacitance of the cooking chamber is thus almost filled.This makes it hardly possible to simultaneously introduce another item of material to be cooked, which is to be finished at the same time as e.g. the French fries, into the cooking chamber.No knowledge of the cooking state, since without looking into the cooking chamber. Therefore, frequent opening of the cooking chamber for condition control and turning over of the material to be cooked for uniform finishing.This results in almost complete loss of temperature each time, and hence in a longer cooking period (higher energy consumption 9 and higher work time expenditure.The field of private kitchen is primarily dependent on small, inexpensive appliances due to space and cost and offers consumers of a range of cooking appliances for private households of all orders of magnitude.In the known state of the art and also used in practice, the heating of the material to be cooked is predominantly carried out by heat sources in a container from below or above material to be cooked resting on metal sheets or grates. This applies to 95% of the cooking appliances. Only about 5% has a lateral effect of heat and thus a very good uniform heating of the material to be cooked.This 95% has the disadvantage that the side of the material to be cooked which is oriented toward the heat source is subjected to more heating than the opposite side which is directed downwards. The product to be cooked is thus heated non-uniformly. In order to determine the degree of the cooking progress, it is necessary to see the item to be cooked. For this purpose and for adapting the cooking progress on all sides of the material to be cooked, it is necessary to see the material to be cooked and, if necessary, to turn it manually,In order to perform these operations, opening of the container is necessary.Depending on whether an opening is provided from above or from the front, the interior space loses a great deal of heat and thus causes additional energy expenditure after closing. Furthermore, it is necessary to take time for the optical control and, for example, turning over of the material to be cooked.The small circulating air ovens (hot air frits) used many times are predominantly fitted from above or by means of a drawer and have cooking spaces of about 15 x 18 x 15 cm to 25 x 25 x 18 cm, 3.5-12 liters. The amount of material to be cooked is therefore limited to about 400-1200 grams, which is however located in the cooking chamber in a manner such that it is embedded one on top of the other and can only be subjected to uniform cooking by means of continuous turning, turning, shaking or loosening. Food of different types, which however should be ready as eating at the same time, for example French fries with chicken legs, potato roasties with beef cream, Spiegel with toast etc. is thus not possible. Moreover, the size of the cooking chamber has an enormous effect on the energy consumption.The disadvantages of the small cooking appliances:Seldom uniform heating all around.A great expenditure of time for frequent opening, observation and turning over of the material to be cooked is required. High additional, unnecessary energy expenditure Pos. 1+3.Hardly uniform finish cooking at the same time, with different items to be cooked. No liquid feed preparation (soup, sauce, spiegelle, etc.The advantageous invention overcomes these disadvantages.By virtue of the variable arrangement of the specially designed grill material carriers vertically, vertically 30 degrees or horizontally and the provision of 2 grid baskets (closed flat grill baskets with openings of approximately 15 x 15 mm) which ensure a uniform supply of hot air to the cooked material, but also fix the cooked material to the rear cooked material carrier in any desired thickness with the rear side in the vertical position of the cooked material carrier.The displaceable and enlargeable base surface of the floor grid (with a part of the side grids) allows the transportable QGG (1) to be adapted for almost any size of cooking chamber.The cooked cargo carriers are inserted into the bottom grid and cover grid and / or side grid vertically horizontally, with a 30 degree inclination and under consideration of different meals, cooked cargo strengths and spacing posture to the adjacent cooked cargo, depending on the cooked cargo, and thus achieve the important free access of the hot cooking air from all sides simultaneously and uniformly.By introducing the cooked product after the cooking period onto the cooked product carriers, it can be achieved that all cooked products are simultaneously finished. There is no need to relayer, turn and open the cooking product space.By storing the material to be cooked not lying one above the other but resting on the material supports and on the longitudinal side towards the hot air stream, a uniform, faster cooking is achieved, but without turning and turning.A further improvement of the invention is achieved by the novel use of a digital camera, optionally to be mounted, with Bluetooth transmission and / or cable connection and image reproduction on the mobile phone, PC or monitor, which makes it possible to monitor the progress of the product to be cooked without having to open the cooking appliance.The following advantages result from the invention:This allows full utilization of the cooking chamber and nevertheless uniform heating of items to be cooked all around.Simple Enlargement of the Extendable Floor SurfaceEnergy saving.Clampable separate handles for removing the insert from the cooking appliance. Items to be cooked (including relatively small items to be cooked, such as French fries, chicken winks, pizza piccolinis, soft items to be cooked, for example lamm fillets, burger pads, coincide in the case of vertical storage, etc.) perpendicularly on the items to be cooked.Saving on working time.All advantages can also be used in microwave devices by manufacturing the device from plastic.Several types of food to be cooked simultaneously are cooked by changing the spacing of the food supports.Accelerated cooking by less interruptions and uniform circumferential heating.Optional monitor control of cooking progress by digital camera and thereby time and energy saving and faster cooking.The cooking of liquid supplies, for example, mirror eggs, soups or the gridging, is possible by the use of containers.The relatively simple design features of the invention allow for inexpensive manufacture.The invention QGG is thus excellently suitable for optimizing and making more powerful the hot air ovens, ovens which are nowadays predominantly found, which do not have heat emission from the side.The object of the present invention is to provide a roasting / grilling insert which can quickly, without great work and saving energy consumption, produce cooking, grilling, roasting or baking in different cooking spaces, a different type and quantity of food.The object is achieved by the device (1) according to the features of claims 1-10. The device can be used and used in a transportable manner in almost any cooking appliance. For the sake of simplicity, the device ( 1) can also be used fixedly connected to a cooking appliance.Advantageous further developments of the invention are illustrated in more detail in the description of the preferred embodiment of the invention with reference to FIGS. 1-6.FIG. 1 shows a section of a side view of the invention (1) with inserted racks (14) for cooking goods inserted vertically at about 30 degrees into baskets (24) of grid profile 5 located on the front and rear sides for unhindered passage of the hot air stream, but at the same time fixing of the cooking goods (28) of the rack (14) for cooking goods located behind. Depending on the thickness of the material to be cooked, the distance between the movable material supports (14) can be fixed to the desired distance by inserting them into the bottom grid (11) and into the cover grid (9).A further advantageous feature is the bent-up (22) of the product support grid at the lower edge and at the side edges, since it ensures good retention of the product.The invention also has an effect of monitoring the cooking progress by using and mounting a mini digital camera with illumination device ( 18). The device is advantageously used in a heat-protected glass housing. The data transmission is then carried out without opening the food appliance by Bluetooth or flat ribbon cable directly on a mobile telephone, PC or monitor.The rear wall (21) of the QGG (1) is removable so that the food carrier (14) and the food (28) can be easily inserted into the insert. Furthermore, the extendable base (11) can be seen on the left-hand side, which can be moved in the guide tubes (12) by means of guide rods (23) and are locked on the grid east by means of the ball lock (27).The QGG(1) stands in the cooking chamber on the feet / spacers (15) and, in the transportable version, has a floor grid surface (11) on which the side, front and rear grids are mounted at a distance of approximately 15 mm from the outer edge (7). The grids are thereby kept at a distance from the cooking appliance wall and thus the good air circulation accessibility is achieved.The grid profile 4 has a secure and good accessibility due to the small distance of about 6 mm of the longitudinally running struts, taking into account the thickness of the cooked product to be fixed for the insertion of the rod (19) of the cooked product carriers (14) having a diameter of 3 mm.If the device is firmly connected to a cooking appliance, the manufacturer saves the frying basket present on almost every insert and instead mounts the quick-connect and cooking insert on the insert by means of the mounting plate (6) present on the insert.FIG. 2 shows the plan view of a food carrier (14) in a top view in a vertical position of about 30 degrees.Reference numeral 19 shows the rod (19) at the upper and lower edges, which is attached at an angle of 90 degrees and which, for fixing in the floor grid (11), are inserted at the bottom and at the top into the grid of the cover (9).Furthermore, reference is made to the advantageous and necessary design of the food supports by means of the grid baskets (24) attached to the linkage (19) on the front and rear sides, these grid baskets form a hollow space and bring about the undisturbed hot air circulation between the food and simultaneously fix the food (28) to the rear grid basket (34).On the front side of the food carrier (14), a raised edge (20, 22) of about 10 mm height is provided all around, which serves to better load the food carriers with food (28). FIG. 3 shows the grid profile 4 which extends in each case in the longitudinal direction from the front to the rear in the case of side walls, floor grid and cover ( 9).FIG. 4 shows the grid profile 5 which is used in the production of the baskets (24).FIG. 5 shows the guidance by the guide rod (23) in the guide tube (12) of the extendable floor grid surface (8) and its locking by the ball pressure (25) on the floor grid (11).Reference numerals denote reference numerals1 Quick grill grid and cooking insert (QGG) 2 side walls of grid profile 4 3 front wall of grid profile 4 4 grid profile rectangular, short side 6 mm x 15 mm, long side into depth 5 grid profile square, approximately 15 x 15 mm 6 mounting plate for docking to a handle of the cooking appliance insert part 7 floor grid protrusion 8 extendable grid profile 4 for enlarging the QGG (1) and adapting to different cooking chamber sizes 9 covering of grid profile 4, with locking of the cooking product carriers (14) 10 floor grid of grid profile 4 for inserting the rods (19) of the cooking product carriers (14) 11 floor grid, Extendable part for enlarging the base area 12 guide tube for guide rods (23) 13 grid profile rear side 14 food carrier with front and rear basket made of grid profile 5 15 feet and spacers 16 joints on the closure cover (9) 17 closure on the closure cover (9) 18 digital camera with lighting device and overall heat protection 19 linkage on the lower and upper edge of the food carriers (14) which enters the openings of the grids side walls (2) and / or bottom grid (10, 11), and covering (9) can be inserted horizontally or vertically, 20 bent-up portions on the lower edge of the food support (14) for fixing the food 21 Removable rear wall in lattice profile 4 22 bent-up portions on the sides of the food support (14) 23 Guide rods of the pull-out surfaces 24 Basket-like configuration front and rear sides of the food supports (14) 25 Contact spring ball 26 Locking of the guide rods (23) by ball locking device 27 Ball locking device 28 Food 29 Container for liquid feeds 30 not occupied 31 not occupied 32 Cross rod with joints (16) for covering (9) 33 Food store 34 Basket side Food fixingReferences included in the specificationThis list of documents cited by the applicant has been produced in an automated manner and is only included for the better information of the reader.
