Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to a heat range device that uses infrared rays or heated air to cook ingredients that require different heating temperatures in the same container at the same time. [Background technology]
[0002] Currently, there are no heat ranges on the market that can simultaneously heat different ingredients in the same container. Therefore, a technology has been proposed, as shown in Figure 1 of Prior Art Document 1, that allows ingredients to have a texture similar to that of a container containing water without adding water, and that heats the ingredients in a general manner. However, this technology is not applicable to foods such as bean-jam buns, meat buns, and Chinese buns, which are often sold in containers. The purchaser of these foods opens the lid of the container containing the food, pours a predetermined amount of water into the container, and then closes the lid.
[0003] The container is then placed in a microwave oven and turned on, causing the water to turn into steam and heat the food that was previously placed in. The lid of the container is then opened, and the heated food is removed and served.
[0004] However, such conventional "food heating method using an electromagnetic wave application device and a container for holding food to be heated by an electromagnetic wave application device" means cannot heat multiple foods requiring different heating temperatures at the same time and in the same container to produce edible food. Therefore, it is desirable to be able to heat foods requiring different heating temperatures at the same time and in the same container in a short time.
[0005] The above-mentioned Patent Document 1 does not realize the cooking of foods with different heating temperatures at the same time, but merely describes a method in which multiple ingredients with different heating temperatures are cooked and heated in the same container through several processes. [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0006] [Patent Document 1] Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2013-095457 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0007] This invention provides a simple and convenient heat range device that can cook ingredients with different heating temperatures and different heating times at the same time in the same container. [Means for solving the problem]
[0008] This device comprises a housing with an opening and closing mechanism on the front side, multiple storage trays at the bottom of the housing for storing foods with different heating temperatures, a heating element within the housing that heats each of the storage trays, and heat guards at designated locations on the storage trays to prevent the stored food from being affected by heat conduction and steam, etc., thereby allowing foods with different heating temperatures to be heated and prepared all at once within the same device.Its main feature is that it is extremely convenient, as it allows foods with different heating temperatures to be heated and prepared all at once within the same device. [Effects of the Invention]
[0009] According to the present invention described in claim 1, it is possible to provide a heat range device that can heat multiple foods with different heating temperatures at once with a single device, and that produces reliable results while being simplified in terms of the device. [Brief explanation of the drawings]
[0010] [Figure 1] 1 and 2 are diagrams illustrating a heat range device according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing a planar arrangement of foods with different heating temperatures. [Figure 2] FIG. 2 shows the structure of the heat range device of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0011] The heat range device of this invention can heat multiple foods with different food heating temperatures at the same time using the same device, and is equipped with a heat guard that can prevent steam generated during heating and the transfer of heat to areas of the food that are not desired to be heated.The heat guard can be installed inside the container or inside the heat range body as needed, so these measures are also major features. [Example]
[0012] 1 and 2 show one embodiment of the present invention, in which storage trays P1 to P4, on which foods F1 to F4 are placed, are integrally formed in a flat configuration within housing X in Fig. 1 with a base plate B. Storage trays P1 to P4 are configured to be able to store foods F1 to F4, each with a different heating temperature, and heat guards H are provided between storage trays P1, P3 and storage trays P2 and P4, which prevent steam or heat generated from foods F1 and F3 on storage trays P1, P3, etc. from affecting foods F2 to F4 on other storage trays P2 to P4.
[0013] The heat guard H is not fixedly placed in the above-mentioned locations, but can also be placed between the storage trays P1 to P4 or at key locations inside the housing X as needed. These considerations allow food to be heated as desired by the user. The structure of the heat guard H is not limited to the structure shown in the drawings and can be modified as needed, and its placement is not limited to the location shown in the drawings and can be selected at any optimal location inside the housing X.
[0014] The ceiling C of the housing X is provided with heating elements corresponding to the arrangement of the storage trays P1 to P4. Heating elements L1 to L4 are arranged. The heat intensity of heating elements L1 to L4 can be changed individually or collectively, allowing the food heater to freely adjust these settings, which is extremely convenient.
[0015] This eliminates the concern of unwanted overheating or underheating of food due to steam, heat, etc., making it possible to provide an efficient and economical heat range device. Although this embodiment has been described with an example in which four storage trays P1 to P4 are arranged, this is not limiting, and by preparing lids configured in the same shape as the four storage trays and placing these lids on the storage trays, it is possible to heat foods with different heating temperatures in the same way. [Industrial Applicability]
[0016] The heat range of this invention is constructed by forming a container integrally with multiple consecutive storage trays to hold multiple foods with different heating temperatures, and heats them differently using an adjustable heating element, while eliminating unnecessary heat and steam, so that it is possible to heat foods with different heating temperatures at once and produce good-quality finished products.
