Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a gas heating cooker, and more particularly to a heating cooker placed on a table, which relates to a gas heating cooker capable of safely and easily igniting a gas burner disposed in the main body of the heating cooker.

Background Art

[0002] A gas heating cooker basically consists of a cooker main body, a water tank, a gas burner, and a rotisserie.

[0003] For each component, the water tank is installed in the cooker main body, and the rotisserie can be laid across the upper surface of the water tank. The piping of the gas burner is disposed in the space between the inner surface of the cooker main body and the outer surface of the water tank, and gas ejection holes are formed in the piping of the burner corresponding to the window provided in the water tank.

[0004] Therefore, if the water tank is filled with water at the bottom and the gas burner is ignited, the gas flame ejected from the gas ejection holes passes through the window of the water tank and flames up into the water tank, and the rotisserie on the upper surface of the water tank is heated to cook the food.

[0005] Ignition of the gas ejected from the ejection holes is considered to be configured in association with the opening and closing of the gas cock so that it can be performed simply and automatically, and a configuration in which gas supply and ignition are interlocked and attached is considered.

[0006] On the other hand, in the case of a commercial gas heating cooker, for safety reasons, the handling of ignition is left to the employee so that the customer does not perform the ignition operation arbitrarily.

[0007] Moreover, attaching an ignition means increases the number of parts and affects the product cost. In addition, when an ignition means is attached, there are also problems such as complication of the configuration of the cooker and deterioration of maintainability, and there is also a preferable aspect that the configuration is simple.

[0008] Therefore, it is adopted that the employee directly ignites the gas using an igniter.

[0009] In that case, first, lift or shift the lost-foil with the operating tool to form an opening on the upper surface of the water tank. Next, open the gas cock, and at the same time, insert the igniter into the formed opening, bring the tip close to the gas ejection hole from the window of the water tank to ignite, and after confirming ignition, return the lost-foil to its original position state.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0011] As described above, when an employee directly ignites the gas using an igniter, it has the advantage of ensuring safety because customers can be prevented from freely igniting the gas. However, on the other hand, a poorly balanced lost-foil has to be lifted with an operating tool, and the operations of operating the igniter and opening and closing the gas cock have to be performed. Since this ignition operation is not an easy task, it places a burden on the employee, and there is also a problem that it is difficult to shorten the time of the ignition operation.

[0012] Therefore, the present invention aims to provide a gas heating cooker that can perform ignition operations safely, simply, and easily, reduce the burden on employees, and shorten the ignition operation time.

Means for Solving the Problems

[0013] The gas heating cooker according to claim 1 of the present invention is a gas heating cooker placed on a tabletop. On the side surface of the cooker body, a hole into which the flame port of the igniter can be inserted is formed, and through this hole, the flame port of the igniter can penetrate close to the gas burner inside the cooker body.

[0014] Further, Claim 2 is characterized in that, in the invention of Claim 1, the hole is formed in the vicinity of the side surface where the gas cock is provided.

Advantages of the Invention

[0015] In the present invention, a hole into which the flame port of the igniter can be inserted is formed on the side surface of the cooker body, and through this hole, the flame port of the igniter can penetrate near the gas burner inside the cooker body. Therefore, there is no need to lift or shift the rotisserie for ignition and return the rotisserie to its original position after ignition. As a result, there is an effect that the risk of the rotisserie falling or the like is prevented and safety is ensured. The rotisserie can be ignited by inserting the igniter through the hole for inserting the igniter while the rotisserie is placed as it is and bringing the tip close to the gas ejection hole, which exhibits the effect of extremely simple and rapid ignition operation.

[0016] In addition, it is released from the operation of the operating tool for lifting or moving the rotisserie, and since one hand is free to use, the gas cock can be opened and closed with one hand and the igniter can be used to ignite with the other hand, which has the effect of extremely easy ignition operation.

[0017] And the hole is formed in the vicinity of the side surface where the gas cock is provided or on the same side surface where the gas cock of the cooker body in a polygonal shape in plan view is provided, so that the operation of the gas cock and the operation of the igniter can be easily, surely and rapidly performed with both hands.

Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0019] The present invention will be described based on the drawings showing one embodiment. The gas cooker 10 includes a cooker body 1, a water tank 2, a rotisserie 3, a gas burner 4 housed inside the cooker body 1, and a gas cock 5 for adjusting the supply of gas to the gas burner 4.

[0020] The cooker body 1 is made of a refractory material and is formed in a box shape with an open top.

[0021] The cooker body 1 is appropriately provided with air intake holes on all its side circumferential surfaces.

[0022] Also, as shown in FIG. 4, the gas cock 5 penetrates the side circumferential surface of the cooker body 1.

[0023] The cooker body 1 is further provided with an igniter insertion hole 6 on the side circumferential surface through which the gas cock 5 penetrates.

[0024] This igniter insertion hole 6 has a size into which the flame port of the igniter 7 can be inserted.

[0025] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, two igniter insertion holes 6 are provided near the left and right ends of the same surface through which the gas cock 5 penetrates on one of the short side surfaces of the cooker body 1 having a horizontally long rectangular plane.

[0026] The water tank 2 is made of the same material as the cooker body 1 and is formed in a box shape with an open top.

[0027] The water tank 2 has a water tank portion 21 having a substantially rectangular bottom surface in plan view and a horizontal flange portion 22.

[0028] The rectangle of the bottom surface of the water tank portion 21 is composed of a pair of opposing long sides and a pair of short sides.

[0029] The water tank portion 21 is a similar shape smaller than the cooker body 1 and has a shallower depth, and is sized to form a space between the opposing side circumferential surface and the bottom surface of the cooker body 1 and be accommodated therein.

[0030] A horizontal flange portion 22 is formed outwardly at the upper end portion, and the lower surface of the horizontal flange portion 22 is supported on the upper end of the side circumferential surface of the cooker body 1 so that the water tank 2 can be attached to the cooker body 1.

[0031] In addition, a window 23 extending in the long side direction of the bottom surface is formed on the side surface rising from the bottom surface of the water tank portion 21.

[0032] In the perspective view of FIG. 3, only one window 23 is visible, but a pair of windows 23 are formed facing each other in the short side direction of the bottom surface.

[0033] The window 23 is formed with an opening having a vertical width wider than the diameter of the gas pipe 41 and with a margin at a position corresponding to the gas ejection hole 42 provided in the gas pipe 41 of the gas burner 4 described later.

[0034] The gas burner 4 has a gas pipe 41 to which the aforementioned gas cock 5 is attached at its base end.

[0035] With the horizontal flange portion 22 of the water tank 2 installed at the upper end of the side circumferential surface of the cooker body 1, the gas pipe 41 is shaped so as to be disposed in the space formed between the side circumferential surface of the cooker body 1 and the side surface of the water tank portion 21.

[0036] The gas pipe 41 is supported by the receiving member 11 of the cooker body 1 and is wound along the side circumferential surface of the cooker body 1 in a plan view.

[0037] The gas pipe 41 has a gas ejection hole 42 drilled on the side of the water tank portion 21 corresponding to the window 23 provided in the water tank 2 so that gas is ejected into the water tank portion 21.

[0038] The rotostor 3 is supported by a stepped portion 24 formed around the base of the horizontal flange portion 22 of the water tank 2, and the rotostor 3 can be laid across the upper surface of the water tank portion 21.

[0039] The roasting tray 3 is selected to be suitable in material and form according to the ingredients to be cooked.

[0040] The water tank 2 filled with water at the bottom of the water tank part 21 is horizontally installed and accommodated by the horizontal flange part 22 at the upper end of the side circumference of the cooker main body 1, and the roasting tray 3 supported by the step part 24 formed around the base of the horizontal flange part 22 of the water tank 2 is prepared in a state of being laid across the upper surface of the water tank part 21.

[0041] Then, when the gas cock 5 is opened and the gas from the gas ejection hole 42 of the gas pipe 41 is ejected into the water tank part 21, and the burner 7 is inserted through the burner insertion hole 6 and the tip is brought close to the gas ejection hole 42 for ignition, the gas can be ignited.

[0042] The gas flame extends into the water tank part 21 through the window 23 of the water tank part 21, and the roasting tray 3 on the upper surface of the water tank part 21 is heated to cook the ingredients.

[0043] Therefore, for ignition, there is no need to lift or shift the roasting tray 3 and then return it to its original position after ignition. Therefore, the risk of the roasting tray 3 falling or the like can be prevented and safety can be ensured. The roasting tray 3 can be ignited by inserting the burner 7 through the burner insertion hole 6 with the roasting tray 3 in a placed state and bringing the tip close to the gas ejection hole 42, which is an extremely simple and quick ignition operation.

[0044] Also, since it is released from the operations of lifting and moving the roasting tray 3, one hand is free to use, so the gas cock 5 can be opened and closed with one hand and the burner 7 can be used to ignite with the other hand, which is a very easy and quick ignition operation.

[0045] The window 23 is drilled at a position corresponding to the gas ejection hole 42 provided in the gas pipe 41 with a vertical width wider than the diameter of the gas pipe 41 and with a margin. Therefore, the burner 7 can pass through the burner insertion hole 6 and approach the gas ejection hole 42.

[0046] When the gas cock 5 and the ignition tool insertion hole 6 are located on the same side surface or in the vicinity of each other, each operation using both hands can be smoothly and easily performed.

[0047] In the above embodiment, the gas heating cooker 10 has been described for the case of grilling meat with the rotisserie 3, but it is not limited thereto. Instead of the rotisserie, a grill net, a griddle, etc. can be freely selected.

[0048] In the above embodiment, the case where two ignition tool insertion holes 6 are provided near the left and right ends of the same surface through which the gas cock 5 penetrates on one short side surface of the cooker body 1 having a horizontally long rectangular plane has been described, but it is not limited thereto. The position and number of the ignition tool insertion holes can be freely selected according to the shape of the cooker body of the gas heating cooker.

[0049] In the above embodiment, in the drawings, the case where the ignition tool insertion hole 6 is a circular hole has been described, but it is not limited thereto. The ignition tool insertion hole may be a polygonal hole such as a square as long as the flame port of the ignition tool 7 can be inserted.

[0050] Also, in terms of the positional relationship between the gas ejection hole and the window of the water tank, if there is an obstacle to inserting the flame port of the ignition tool from the ignition tool insertion hole and bringing the tip close to the gas ejection hole, the window may be extended in the horizontal direction, or expanded in the vertical direction, or a dedicated window may be formed, etc. to remove the obstacle.
