Abstract
Description
[0001] The present invention relates to a cooking chamber component for an outdoor grill, in particular a gas grill, and to an outdoor grill, in particular a gas grill, with such a cooking chamber component.
[0002] It is common practice in outdoor grills to install a warming rack, usually at the rear, above the cooking grate. Because the warming rack is positioned in a cooler area of the cooking chamber—typically at the back and relatively high up—it allows food that has already been cooked on the grill to be kept warm. These warming racks are usually hung in the vertical wall at the back of the cooking chamber, allowing them to be easily removed when not in use.
[0003] Most warming racks are manufactured in one piece, for example from a wire mesh. However, DE 10 2021 213 975 A1 proposes that the warming rack be made of at least two parts, wherein the two parts or all parts of the warming rack are rigidly but detachably connected to each other in a first bending direction, and the warming rack, in its assembled state, is supported at its two axial ends in the cooking chamber such that the first rigid bending direction at the interface between the parts of the warming rack is directed vertically downwards. In a second bending direction, which is opposite to the first bending direction, the two parts or all parts of the warming rack are detachably connected to each other with some flexibility.
[0004] US 10,568,461 B1 discloses a gas grill in whose cooking chamber several grill grates are positioned one above the other, with a section of each of the upper grill grates being removable to create vertical space for larger items on the lower grill grates. The removable sections are specifically adapted in their shape and connection to the surrounding part, so that an opening can only be created or closed at a specific position within the grill grate.
[0005] The present invention is based on the objective of providing a cooking chamber component for an outdoor grill, in particular a gas grill, which enables extremely flexible positioning of the food to be kept warm within the cooking chamber.
[0006] The problem according to the invention is solved by a cooking chamber component with the features of claim 1. Advantageous and particularly suitable embodiments of the cooking chamber component according to the invention, as well as an outdoor grill according to the invention with a cooking chamber component according to the invention, are specified in the dependent claims and the description.
[0007] A cooking chamber component according to the invention for an outdoor grill, in particular a gas grill, comprises a plurality of component segments which are detachably connected to one another by plug connections and together form the cooking chamber component.
[0008] According to the invention, the component segments each have a plug connector at a rear end and at a front end opposite to the rear end, wherein the plug connector at the rear end is compatible with the plug connector at the front end.
[0009] The component segments can therefore be connected very flexibly side by side in the cooking chamber using a plug connection on the vertical wall of the cooking chamber, but can also be plugged into each other and positioned one behind the other in the cooking chamber, because the plug connection at a rear end of the component segment is compatible with the plug connection at the front end of the same component segment, which means that one and the same component segment can be used as a rear component segment as well as a front component segment or, in the direction from a front of the cooking chamber of the outdoor grill to a rear of the cooking chamber of the outdoor grill, as a middle component segment between two other component segments.The rear component segment is then connected to the vertical wall via a plug connection, with its rear end against the wall; the middle component segment is connected to the front end of the rear component segment via a plug connection; and the front component segment is connected to the front end of the middle component segment via a plug connection. Instead of a single middle component segment, several component segments connected in series via plug connections between the rear and front component segments can also be provided, resulting in more than three component segments positioned one behind the other in the cooking chamber.
[0010] Naturally, the correspondingly connected component segments can also be attached to a side wall or front wall of the cooking chamber, so that the cooking chamber component formed by them extends accordingly towards the opposite side wall or towards the rear wall.
[0011] Several cooking chamber components according to the invention can also be positioned next to each other and / or on top of each other in the cooking chamber.
[0012] Additionally or alternatively, a support can be attached to the vertical wall of the cooking chamber, for example, the rear vertical wall and / or the side vertical wall, to which the rear component segment is attached at its rear end. Such a support can be made of sheet metal, for example, particularly as bent sheet metal. Advantageously, the support has a U-shape and is attached to the wall with its rear leg, for example, by screws. Preferably, the web of the U-shape is then at the top, so that the U-shape is open at the bottom. Openings for inserting or hooking the rear component segments can then be provided in the front leg and / or the web. Other embodiments and / or orientations of the support are possible.
[0013] The cooking chamber component according to the invention can form a warming rack and accordingly have a support surface for grilled food provided with slots or other openings. According to another embodiment, the cooking chamber component can also have a closed support surface for grilled food, for example, to form a grill plate or warming plate, or a grill tray or warming tray. Furthermore, the cooking chamber component can also form a food holder, for example, for chicken legs or other poultry parts, roasts, corn on the cob, asparagus, or the like. Finally, the cooking chamber component can also form an upper heat shield, i.e., on the top of the grilled food, for example, a pizza dome, to retain the heat under the cooking chamber component. Other embodiments are possible.
[0014] Such different designs can also be combined in a cooking chamber component by connecting different component segments, which are designed accordingly as a warming rack, grill plate, warming plate, grill tray, warming tray, food holder, upper heat shield or otherwise, to form the cooking chamber component.
[0015] Preferably, the plug connection at the rear end of the component segment comprises one or more hooks, and the plug connection at the front end of the component segment comprises one or more openings. Thus, the hook(s) of a rear end of a first component segment can be inserted into the opening(s) of a front end of a second component segment, or into the oven wall and / or the support.
[0016] However, particularly when inserting the component segment into or onto the oven wall and / or into or onto the support, the insertion can also be done via an upper edge, so that no corresponding opening for the hook(s) at the rear end of the component segment is necessary. In principle, a front end of a component segment can also be provided with such an upper edge.
[0017] Preferably, the component segments each comprise a vertical plate at their rear end, to which the hook(s) are attached. The hook(s) are particularly located at the upper end of the vertical plate and project, for example, rearward or upwardward from the plate.
[0018] The vertical plate enables stable mounting of the component segment on a cooking chamber wall and / or the support or on another component segment, in particular a rigid mounting in a downward bending direction, so that the component segment cannot buckle downwards when it is connected to the cooking chamber wall and / or the support or on another component segment.
[0019] Preferably, each component segment has an angle profile at its front end, into which one or more openings are provided. This allows the hook(s) at the rear end of one component segment to be engaged in the opening(s) of the angle profile at the front end of another component segment. The angle profile preferably has a front vertical leg against which, when engaged, the vertical plate at the rear end of the other component segment rests and is supported, thereby achieving the desired bending stiffness.
[0020] The vertical plate and / or the angle profile can be made in one piece, in particular materially bonded, with a horizontal plate of the component segment, which forms a support surface for grilled food on its upper side.
[0021] For example, the horizontal plate may have longitudinal slots and / or other openings and / or a grid. However, the component segment can also have a closed surface for grilling food, forming a bowl from one component segment or several connected component segments. As shown, the component segment can also form an upper heat shield.
[0022] The angle profile preferably connects to the front of the horizontal plate in a roof-like manner. For example, the angle profile comprises the front vertical leg and an upper base arranged obliquely or at right angles to it, in which one or more openings are provided. A rear leg can also connect to the base, which then preferably terminates in or transitions into the horizontal plate of the component segment.
[0023] The component segments are preferably manufactured as sheet metal bending parts, which makes them particularly cost-effective to produce.
[0024] As explained, a first component segment is preferably rigidly connected in a downward direction to the connector at the front end of a second component segment via the plug connection at its rear end. In particular, a third component segment can be rigidly connected in a downward direction to the plug connection at the front end of the first component segment via the plug connection at its rear end. Thus, by connecting three component segments, the cooking chamber component can extend particularly far forward from a rear or other wall of the cooking chamber and / or the support structure, either towards an operator or towards an opposite wall.
[0025] The component segments are in particular free of screws, meaning they can be separated from each other simply by unplugging the connectors and connected to each other by plugging the connectors into each other.
[0026] The component segments can preferably be shaped in such a way that they can be stacked on top of each other and are preferably held together by a positive locking mechanism. For example, the component segments can be nested inside each other to form a stack for space-saving storage.
[0027] Some or all component segments can preferably be designed as identical parts.
[0028] An alternative embodiment of the invention, which can also be combined with the embodiment described above, provides that the component segments have a plug-in connection at their rear end, with which they can be hooked onto an upper edge of a vertical wall and / or a support attached thereto. This allows the component segments to be variably positioned side by side in a set within the cooking chamber of an outdoor grill, by attaching their rear end to the cooking chamber wall and / or the support, or to a cooking chamber component of the type described above. For example, the component segments have a connection at their rear end for rigidly hooking the respective component segment onto the cooking chamber wall and / or the support or the other component segment.
[0029] Such a component segment can also be positioned very flexibly in the cooking chamber and, for example, be designed for one of the aforementioned functions, such as forming a warming rack, a grill plate, a warming plate, a grill tray, a warming tray, a food holder or an upper heat shield.
[0030] The component segments of the set of component segments each include a plug-in connector at a rear end, allowing them to be attached to an upper edge of the vertical wall of the cooking chamber and / or the support. The vertical wall is preferably not adjustable within the cooking chamber; that is, it is the vertical wall enclosing the cooking chamber, in contrast to components located in front of the vertical wall. Even in an embodiment with a support, this support is preferably rigidly connected to the vertical wall and not adjustable relative to it.
[0031] The component segments can be designed as identical parts. In this case, all component segments can be identical, or groups of component segments can be provided, each containing identical parts, with the component segments of one group differing from those of the other group. According to one embodiment, the component segments differ in their width. For example, two or more groups are provided.
[0032] Here too, the plug connector at the rear end can include one or more hooks. In particular, the component segments at the rear end each comprise a vertical plate to which the hook(s) are attached, especially at the upper end.
[0033] In this embodiment of the invention, the vertical plate is preferably formed in one piece with a horizontal plate of the component segment, which forms a support surface for grilled food on its upper side and / or a heat shield on its underside.
[0034] A support surface for supporting the rear end against the vertical wall and / or beam can preferably be positioned below the vertical plate, with the support surface projecting beyond the vertical plate, particularly to the rear. This makes it particularly easy to rigidly suspend the respective component segment against the vertical wall and / or beam, even if the vertical wall and / or beam slopes forward.
[0035] An outdoor grill according to the invention, which is particularly designed as a gas grill with at least one gas burner, and in particular a plurality of gas burners, comprises a cooking chamber enclosed by a vertical wall, in which at least one cooking chamber component according to the invention is received, wherein at least one component segment is connected at its rear end to the vertical wall and / or a support attached thereto, in particular inserted into one or more wall openings in the vertical wall and / or in the support, or placed over an upper edge of the vertical wall and / or the support, i.e., hooked in. For this purpose, the vertical wall and / or the support may have a projection directed into the cooking chamber, in which, for example, the wall openings are provided or which forms the upper edge.
[0036] Additionally or alternatively, the set of component segments is accommodated in the cooking chamber, with the component segments being suspended at their rear end from an upper edge of the vertical wall and / or the support. The vertical wall can preferably support a lid for the cooking chamber, either placed on top of the vertical wall or hinged to it.
[0037] The one or more wall openings in the vertical wall and / or the support, or the upper edge, are / are, in particular, identical to the one or more openings or an upper edge at the front end of the component segments. This allows one and the same component segment to be inserted either into the vertical wall or into another component segment.
[0038] Preferably, the vertical wall and / or the support comprises a plurality of wall openings positioned next to each other or, according to an alternative embodiment, also wall hooks into which a plurality of component segments positioned next to each other, in particular directly adjacent to each other, can be inserted or are inserted with their rear plug connections.
[0039] As explained, at least two or at least three component segments can also be arranged one behind the other and inserted into each other, with the rearmost component segment being connected to the vertical wall and / or the support.
[0040] Typically, in addition to the cooking chamber component, the cooking chamber includes a grill rack, and the cooking chamber component is positioned above the grill rack in the cooking chamber.
[0041] The embodiments shown here can also be modified so that the openings are replaced by hooks and vice versa, thereby achieving corresponding plug connections. For example, this could involve one or more openings at the rear end of the component segments and one or more hooks at the front end of the component segments, combined with hooks on the vertical wall and / or the support in the case of an outdoor grill. Alternatively, the hooks can be provided on the angle profiles and the openings in the vertical plates of the component segments.
[0042] Furthermore, it is possible to implement other plug connections, for example pins and opposing openings or sleeves.
[0043] The invention will below be described by way of example using an embodiment and the figures.
[0044] They show: Fig. 1 an embodiment of an outdoor grill according to the invention in the form of a gas grill; Fig. 2. Remove the rear section of the cooking chamber of the outdoor grill from the Fig. 1 with adjacent component segments; Fig. 3 an alternative way of connecting the component segments; Fig. 4 a component segment according to the invention; Fig. 5 an exemplary embodiment of an alternative embodiment of a component segment; Fig. 6 the component segment from the Fig. 5 before hanging on a vertical wall of a cooking chamber; Fig. 7 the component segment from the Fig. 5 hung on the rear wall of the cooking chamber; Fig. 8 a sectional view through the component segment and the vertical wall from the Fig. 7; Fig. 9 three component segments suspended from the vertical wall.
[0045] In the Fig. Figure 1 shows an isometric view of an outdoor grill in the form of a gas grill, comprising a cooking chamber 11 enclosed by a vertical wall 10, in which a grill grate 13 is positioned, forming a flat grilling surface. One or more gas burners are provided below the grill grate 13, the output of which can be variably adjusted by means of corresponding control valves 14. Likewise, one or more rear burners 15 can also be arranged on the vertical wall 10. These do not necessarily have to be the rear wall.
[0046] The cooking chamber 11 is preferably closable with a lid 16 which is hinged to the vertical wall 10.
[0047] Above the grill grate 13, a cooking chamber component 1 is positioned on the vertical wall 10, here, but not necessarily, on its rear side. This component comprises a plurality of component segments 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4 and, in particular, consists exclusively of such component segments 1.1-1.4. The component segments 1.4-1.4 are preferably identical in shape or identical to each other in groups. Such a component segment 1.1 is in the Fig. 4 shown again in detail.
[0048] How to learn particularly from the Fig. As can be seen in Figure 4, each component segment, here the depicted component segment 1.1, has a rear end 2 and a front end 3. The rear end 2 and the front end 3 are connected here by two parallel sides, so that different component segments 1.1-1.4 can be positioned flush against each other next to each other. However, the sides could also be designed differently.
[0049] At its rear end 2, component segment 1.1 has a plug connector 4.1, and at its front end 3, component segment 1.1 has a plug connector 4.2, wherein the plug connector 4.1 at the rear end 2 is designed to be compatible with, i.e., the opposite of, the plug connector 4.2 at the front end 3. In the illustrated embodiment, the plug connector 4.1 at the rear end comprises two hooks 5, the number of which is not limited, and at the front end 3, the plug connector 4.2 comprises a number of openings 6 corresponding to the number of hooks 5 at the rear end 2. The openings 6 are opposite to the hooks 5 such that the hooks 5 of one component segment 1.1-1.4 can be inserted into the openings 6 of another segment 1.1-1.4. Alternatively, openings 6 could also be provided at the rear end 2 and hooks 5 at the front end 3. Other connectors could also be provided, for example with pins and opposing openings.
[0050] The hooks 5 at the rear end 2 protrude from a vertical plate 7 at the rear end 2 of the component segment 1.1, which adjoins a horizontal plate 8 that forms the receiving surface for grilled food and to which an angle profile 9 is attached at the front end 3, which has at least one front vertical leg 9.1.
[0051] The vertical plate 7 at the rear end 2 of a first component segment 1.1-1.4 prevents the component segment 1.1-1.4 from buckling downwards when it is inserted into wall openings 12 of the vertical wall 10, because the vertical plate 7 then lies flat against the vertical wall 10. If, however, the component segment 1.1-1.4 is inserted with its hooks 5 into openings 6 of another component segment 1.1-1.4, the vertical plate 7 lies flat against the front vertical leg 9.1, thus preventing the component segment 1.1-1.4 from buckling downwards.
[0052] Both are examples from the Fig. Figure 3 shows that a first component segment 1.1 is rigidly connected at its rear end 2 to the front end 3 of a second component segment 1.2 in a downward direction via a plug connection. The second component segment 1.2 is in turn rigidly connected at its rear end 2 to the vertical wall 10 of the cooking chamber 11 or to a support 19 attached thereto, also via a plug connection. A third component segment 1.3 could, for example, be rigidly connected at the front end 3 of the first component segment 1.1 in a plug connection.
[0053] The wall openings 12 need not be arranged directly in the vertical wall 10, but can, particularly if the vertical wall 10 is designed as a cast component, but also in other cases, be provided in a support 19 which is attached to the vertical wall 10, for example, screwed on. Such a support 19 is preferably made of sheet metal and can, as can be seen particularly from the Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 recognizes that they have a U-shape, in whose upper, in particular horizontal, web the wall openings 12 are introduced, so that the rear component segment(s) 1.1-1.4 can be supported rigidly on the front leg of the U-shape and the rear leg can be attached to the vertical wall 10.
[0054] As shown in the exemplary embodiment according to the Fig. 5, Fig. 6, Fig. 7, Fig. 8 to Fig. As can be seen in Figure 9, component segments 1.1-1.4 can also be used in the embodiment according to the Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 3 to Fig. 4 Alternatively, they can not be inserted into wall openings 12 of the vertical wall 10 or the support 19, for example in a projection of the vertical wall 10, but simply placed over an upper edge 17 of the vertical wall 10 or also of the support 19, i.e., hung on it.
[0055] In the illustrated embodiment, the angle profile 9 comprises an upper base 9.2, which adjoins the front vertical leg 9.1 at the top and to which a rear leg 9.3 adjoins the upper base 9.2, connecting it to the horizontal plate 8. The openings 6 are positioned in the upper base 9.2.
[0056] In the Fig. Figure 2 shows a state in which the component segments 1.1-1.4, which form the cooking chamber component 1, are connected side by side, each in a plug connection, to the vertical wall 10 of the cooking chamber 11 or the support 19. Here too, if further component segments 1.1 to 1.4 are present, these could be plugged into the front ends 3 of component segments 1.-1.4, or one or more of the component segments 1.1-1.4 connected to the vertical wall 10 or the support 19 could be removed from the vertical wall 10 or the support 19 and plugged into a front end 3 of another component segment 1.1-1.4.
[0057] The invention thus enables a very flexible arrangement of the component segments 1.1-1.4 in the cooking chamber 11 simply by rearranging them. Furthermore, the component segments 1.1-1.4 can be manufactured cost-effectively, for example, as bent sheet metal parts.
[0058] In the Fig. 5, Fig. 6, Fig. 7, Fig. 8 to Fig. Figure 9 shows an alternative embodiment of the invention in which component segments 1.5 - 1.7 of a set of component segments 1.5 - 1.7 are suspended on a vertical wall 10 of the cooking chamber 11 of the outdoor grill, in particular a gas grill. Here too, a corresponding support 19 could be provided, which is attached to the vertical wall 10.
[0059] The component segments 1.5 - 1.7 each have a plug connector 4.1 at a rear end 2, which in turn has one or more hooks 5 by which they are positively engaged with an upper edge 17 of the vertical wall 10. In this sense, the hook(s) 5 form a plug connector 4.1 within the meaning of the present invention.
[0060] In the illustrated embodiment, the component segments 1.5 - 1.7 each comprise a vertical plate 7 at their rear end 2, to the upper end of which the hook(s) 5 are attached. As described in the previous embodiment, a horizontal plate 8 adjoins the vertical plate 7, which can form an upper support surface for grilled food and / or a horizontal heat shield.
[0061] Below the vertical plate 7, a support surface 18 is provided for supporting the rear end 2 against the vertical wall 10. Preferably, the support surface 18 extends rearward beyond the vertical plate 7. This allows the vertical wall 10 or a corresponding support 19 to be inclined, at least at its upper end, particularly towards the cooking chamber 11, and the support surface 18 can rest against a section of the vertical wall 10 positioned below it, for example, a vertical section.
