[0010] 2. Description of the Related Art Among conventional cooking appliances, there is known a cooking appliance configured such that a ventilation panel (front grill panel) is detachable from the front surface of a machine chamber below a heating chamber.

[0011] However, when removing and attaching the ventilation panel, it is not always necessary to completely remove the ventilation panel from the front of the machine compartment below the heating chamber. For example, if the ventilation panel can be completely removed and further tilted slightly so that the ventilation panel is attached to the front of the machine compartment and only the filter can be removed, the user can clean only the filter and return it to the ventilation panel.

[0012] In this way, the inventors have found that it is possible to provide a cooking appliance equipped with a ventilation panel that is easier for the user to use than conventional ones.

[0013] Based on these novel findings, the present inventors have arrived at the following invention.

[0016] According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided the cooking appliance as described in the first aspect, in which, when the ventilation panel is attached to the ventilation panel storage section, the ventilation panel is attached to the ventilation panel storage section from diagonally above the front surface of the machine chamber, and the ventilation panel is rotated rearward to store it in the ventilation panel storage section.

[0017] With this configuration, for example, a ventilation panel that has been cleaned by a user can be easily attached to the ventilation panel storage section, making it possible to provide a cooking appliance equipped with a ventilation panel that is easy for the user to use.

[0018] According to a third aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cooking device as described in the first or second aspect, in which, when removing the ventilation panel from the ventilation panel storage section, the ventilation panel is rotated forward and tilted from the front surface of the machine chamber, and the ventilation panel is removed from the ventilation panel storage section diagonally upward from the front surface of the machine chamber.

[0019] With this configuration, for example, when a user cleans the ventilation panel, the ventilation panel can be easily removed from the ventilation panel storage section, making it possible to provide a cooking appliance equipped with a ventilation panel that is easy for the user to use.

[0020] According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cooking device according to any one of the first to third aspects, wherein the ventilation panel is provided with a detachable metal filter, the ventilation panel storage section is provided with a magnet, and when the ventilation panel is stored in the ventilation panel storage section, the ventilation panel with the filter is fixed by the magnetic force of the magnet.

[0021] With this configuration, for example, a filter or ventilation panel that has been cleaned by the user can be easily attached to the ventilation panel storage section, making it possible to provide a cooking appliance equipped with a ventilation panel that is easy for the user to use.

[0022] According to a fifth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cooking device according to any one of the first to fourth aspects, wherein the ventilation panel is provided with a removable metal filter, and the filter is configured to be removable from the ventilation panel when the ventilation panel is rotated forward and tilted away from the front surface of the machine chamber.

[0023] With this configuration, for example, when a user cleans the filter, the filter can be easily detached from the ventilation panel while the ventilation panel is attached to the ventilation panel storage section, so that a cooking device with a ventilation panel that is easy for the user to use can be provided.

[0024] According to a sixth aspect of the present invention, there is provided a cooking device according to any one of the first to fifth aspects, wherein the ventilation panel has a bearing portion and the ventilation panel storage portion has an axis portion, and the ventilation panel is configured to be rotatable in the front-rear direction by engaging the bearing portion with the axis portion.

[0025] With this configuration, the ventilation panel can be attached to the ventilation panel storage section from diagonally above the front of the machine chamber, and the ventilation panel can also be detached from the ventilation panel storage section to diagonally above the front of the machine chamber, so that a cooking device with a ventilation panel that is easy for the user to use can be provided.

[0026] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiment.

[0027] (Embodiment 1) Hereinafter, a cooking device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure will be described with reference to the drawings. Fig. 1 is a front perspective view of cooking device 1 according to embodiment 1. In cooking device 1 shown in Fig. 1, door 4 provided on the front side is in a closed state. Fig. 2 is a front perspective view showing cooking device 1 according to embodiment 1 with door 4 open. Fig. 3 is a front view showing cooking device 1 according to embodiment 1 with door 4 open. Fig. 4 is a front central vertical end view showing cooking device 1 according to embodiment 1 with door 4 closed. Fig. 5 is a partial end view showing the flow of circulating air when the door of cooking device according to embodiment 1 is closed.

[0028] Fig. 6 is a partial cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in Fig. 3 of the cooking device according to the first embodiment. Fig. 7 is a front perspective view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber tilted. Fig. 8 is an exploded perspective view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber and the filter removed. Fig. 9 is a partially enlarged perspective view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber removed. Fig. 10 is a partial front view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber removed. Fig. 11 is (a) a plan view, (b) a front view, and (c) a back view of the ventilation panel of the cooking device according to the first embodiment.

[0029] In the first embodiment, as shown in the figure, the cooking device is placed in front of the user. In the following explanation, the top side of the cooking appliance is referred to as the upper side and the opposite side as the lower side, and further, when viewed from the front of the door 4, the right side is referred to as the right side and the left side is referred to as the left side.

[0030] The cooking device 1 of the first embodiment is a cooking device for commercial use, for example, a cooking device capable of heating with high power used in convenience stores, fast food restaurants, etc. Of course, it can also be used for home use. In the cooking device 1, microwave heating, radiant heating, and hot air circulation heating are selectively performed alone, sequentially, or in parallel depending on the cooking contents.

[0031] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the cooking device 1 includes a main body 2 having a heating chamber 5, a machine chamber 3 provided below the main body 2 to support the main body 2, and a door 4 provided on the front of the main body 2 so as to be able to open and close. The door 4 can be rotated around hinges provided on the lower sides of the door 4 by operating a handle 4a. In addition, an operation display unit 6 is provided on the front of the main body 2 to display the setting operations and setting contents of the cooking device 1 by the user. In addition, a removable ventilation panel 30 is provided on the front side of the machine chamber 3.

[0032] When the door 4 is closed (see Figure 1), the object to be heated in the heating chamber 5 is heated by microwaves or the like, and when the door 4 is open (see Figure 2), the object to be heated is placed in the heating chamber 5 or removed from the heating chamber 5.

[0033] The heating chamber 5 of the main body 2 has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped space that is open at the front, and is sealed by closing the front opening with the door 4, and contains the object to be heated and cooked. The object to be heated contained in the heating chamber 5 is heated and cooked by at least one of the heating mechanisms: the hot air circulation heating mechanism provided on the back side and top side, the radiation heating mechanism provided on the top side, and the microwave heating mechanism provided on the bottom side. The bottom plate of the heating chamber 5 is made of a material that easily transmits microwaves, such as glass or ceramic.

[0034] The heating chamber 5 is configured to accommodate a placement table 7 on which the object to be heated is placed, and a bottom plate 8 disposed below the placement table 7 to receive grease dripping from the object to be heated. The placement table 7 can be removed from the heating chamber 5 to the outside of the cooking device 1, and is configured, for example, as a ceramic base, and is integrally configured with a plate-shaped member on which the object to be heated can be placed and four legs 7a that support the plate-shaped member. The legs 7a are placed on the bottom plate 8. The bottom plate 8 and the placement table 7 are made of ceramic, and the bottom plate 8 is fixed to the upper surface of the bottom wall 5a of the heating chamber 5. The ceramic is specifically made of cordierite (ceramic made of magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, and silicon oxide). Cordierite has low thermal expansion and excellent thermal shock resistance. Therefore, even when radio waves oscillated from the microwave heating mechanism are concentrated on the surface of the placement table 7 or when the object to be heated is heated at a high temperature of 300°C or more, there is a low risk that the placement table 7 will crack.

[0035] Fig. 4 is a front central vertical cross-sectional view of the cooking device 1 of embodiment 1. The right side in Fig. 4 is the front side where the door 4 is provided. In this specification, the door 4 side of the cooking device 1 will be described as the front side (front side), and the opposite side (the left side in Fig. 5) will be described as the rear side (rear side).

[0036] As shown in Fig. 4, a grill heater 9 constituting the radiant heating section 20 is provided on the top surface side above the heating chamber 5. The grill heater 9, which is a heat source, is composed of a single sheathed heater, is placed on the top surface side, and has a curved shape. The grill heater 9 is driven and controlled in a grill mode (radiant heating operation) in which an object to be heated placed in the heating chamber 5 is cooked by radiant heat.

[0037] The machine chamber 3 disposed on the outside of the bottom surface of the heating chamber 5 is provided with a microwave heating unit 21. The main components of the microwave heating unit 21 are a magnetron 15 which is a microwave generating unit, an inverter device 16 which drives the magnetron 15, and a cooling fan 17 which cools the components inside the machine room 3, and are driven and controlled by a control unit (not shown). The cooling fan 17 draws in outside air from a ventilation panel 30 provided in the front of the machine room 3 and sends the drawn-in outside air rearward, thereby cooling the inverter device 16 and the magnetron 15.

[0038] Cooling fan 17 is composed of a multi-blade fan or the like, and is configured to take in air from the axial direction of the rotating shaft and send it out toward the rear of machine room 3 in the outer circumferential direction. Air flowing rearward in machine room 3 passes through an exhaust duct arranged on the rear side of main body 2 and is exhausted from the rear wall of heating chamber 5. Note that the air flowing rearward in machine room 3 may also be configured to pass through an exhaust duct arranged on the rear side of main body 2, pass between the ceiling wall of heating chamber 5 and the top wall of main body 2, and be exhausted from the front side of main body 2. With this configuration, the top wall of the rear wall of main body 2 is prevented from becoming too hot.

[0039] Furthermore, microwave heating unit 21 includes a waveguide 18 that guides microwaves generated by magnetron 15 toward the lower center of heating chamber 5, and a microwave supply unit 19 that radiates the microwaves guided by waveguide 18 into heating chamber 5. Microwave supply unit 19 is disposed in the center of the bottom surface of heating chamber 5, and is configured by an opening formed on the upper surface of the end portion of waveguide 18.

[0040] Further, a stirrer 23 is provided above the microwave supply unit 19 to stir the microwaves radiated from the microwave supply unit 19. The stirrer 23 is rotated by a stirrer drive unit (motor: not shown) provided in the machine chamber 3, and has blades that stir the radiated microwaves. Therefore, in the cooking device 1 of the first embodiment, the stirred microwaves are radiated from the bottom side of the heating chamber 5 into the heating chamber 5, and the object to be heated placed on the placement table 7 is heated.

[0041] In addition, in the cooking device 1 of the first embodiment, in addition to the radiant heating section 20 and the microwave heating section 21 using the grill heater 9 as cooking sources, a hot air generating mechanism 22 is provided, and is driven and controlled by a control section (not shown) including a microcomputer. The hot air generating mechanism 22 includes a convection heater 10 as a heat source for hot air circulation heating, a circulation fan 11 as an air source, and a fan drive section 12 (motor) for driving the circulation fan 11, which are provided on the rear side of the heating chamber 5. A plurality of openings 26 are formed in the rear wall 5e that forms the rear side of the heating chamber 5, and air is sucked from the heating chamber 5 through these openings 26 by driving the convection heater 10 and the circulation fan 11, and the air is blown out from the air outlet 27 into the heating chamber 5. In FIG. 5, the white arrows indicate the flow of air from the suction of air from the heating chamber 5 to the blowing out of air into the heating chamber 5.

[0042] The hot air generating mechanism 22 also includes a flow path forming part 13 and an air guide 14, which will be described later. The flow path forming part 13 and the air guide 14 are provided on the top surface side of the heating chamber 5, and regulate the flow speed and blowing direction of the air from the air outlet 27 opened on the bottom surface of the flow path forming part 13 to the heating chamber 5. In the present disclosure, the flow path forming part 13 and the air guide 14 are disposed on the upper part of the heating chamber 5 to form an upper space, and regulate the flow speed and blowing direction of the air blown from the circulation fan 11 to the heating chamber 5 within the upper space.

[0043] As described above, the cooking device 1 of embodiment 1 is provided with a radiant heating section 20 using a grill heater 9, a microwave heating section 21, and a hot air generating mechanism 22 in order to cook an object to be heated contained in the heating chamber 5.

[0044] Next, a specific configuration of the ventilation panel 30 will be described.

[0045] The ventilation panel 30 is provided at the front of the machine room 3. The machine room 3, which is disposed on the outside of the bottom surface of the heating chamber 5, is provided with the microwave heating unit 21, and is provided with the magnetron 15 and inverter device 16 as main components of the microwave heating unit 21, as well as a cooling fan 17 for cooling the components inside the machine room 3, and is driven and controlled by a control unit (not shown). The cooling fan 17 is configured to suck in outside air through the ventilation panel 30 provided at the front of the machine room 3, and send the outside air sucked in from an intake port 31a at the front of the machine room 3 rearward, thereby cooling the inverter device 16 and magnetron 15.

[0046] Fig. 6 is a partial cross-sectional view taken along the line AA in Fig. 3 of the cooking device according to the first embodiment. Fig. 7 is a front perspective view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber tilted. Fig. 8 is an exploded perspective view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber and the filter removed. Fig. 9 is a partially enlarged perspective view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber removed. Fig. 10 is a partial front view of the cooking device according to the first embodiment with the ventilation panel at the front of the machine chamber removed. Fig. 11 is (a) a plan view, (b) a front view, and (c) a back view of the ventilation panel of the cooking device according to the first embodiment.

[0047] As shown in Fig. 6, the ventilation panel 30 has a plurality of louvers 30a inclined upward on its front surface, which adjust the flow direction of outside air drawn into the ventilation panel 30. As shown in Figs. 6 to 8, a front plate 31 forming the front surface of the machine room 3 has a plurality of suction ports 31a formed therein by, for example, punching. The outside air drawn into the ventilation panel 30 passes through the suction ports 31a and is sent into the inside of the machine room 3.

[0048] A ventilation panel storage section 32 that forms the bottom and sides of the machine room 3 is provided on the front side of the machine room 3. A ventilation panel 30 is detachably disposed in the ventilation panel storage section 32.

[0049] As shown in Figs. 7 and 8, the ventilation panel 30 is detachably disposed in an inclined state from the front surface of the machine room 3.

[0050] With this configuration, the ventilation panel 30 can be attached to the ventilation panel storage section 32 from diagonally above the front of the machine chamber 3, and the ventilation panel 30 can also be detached from the ventilation panel storage section 32 to diagonally above the front of the machine chamber 3, so that a cooking appliance 1 equipped with a ventilation panel 30 that is easy for the user to use can be provided.

[0051] As shown in Figures 6 and 8, the ventilation panel 30 has bearing portions 30c cut out at the lower ends of both left and right sides, and as shown in Figures 9 and 10, it has shaft portions 32a on both sides of the ventilation panel storage section 32 that fit into the bearing portions 30c of the ventilation panel 30. By fitting the bearing portions 30c into the shaft portions 32a, the ventilation panel 30 can be detachably arranged in the ventilation panel storage section 32, and the ventilation panel 30 can be configured to be rotatable in the front-to-rear direction.

[0052] As shown in FIG. 9, both ends of the bottom of the ventilation panel storage section 32 have inclined holding sections 32c that are inclined from the bottom toward the front and upward. Therefore, when the ventilation panel 30 is attached to the ventilation panel storage section 32, it can be held in an inclined position away from the front surface of the machine room 3 and unable to fall any further.

[0053] That is, the ventilation panel 30 can be rotated backward from the inclined state in FIG. 7 to a substantially vertical state and stored in the ventilation panel storage section 32, or the ventilation panel 30 can be stored in the ventilation panel storage section 32. From the stored state, the ventilation panel 30 can be rotated forward to be inclined from the substantially vertical state, and the ventilation panel 30 can be removed from the ventilation panel storage section 32.

[0054] 8, when mounting the ventilation panel 30 in the ventilation panel storage section 32, the ventilation panel 30 can be mounted in the ventilation panel storage section 32 from diagonally above the front surface of the machine room 3, and the ventilation panel 30 can be rotated rearward to store in the ventilation panel storage section 32. When removing the ventilation panel 30 from the ventilation panel storage section 32, the ventilation panel 30 can be rotated forward from the front surface of the machine room 3 to tilt it, and the ventilation panel 30 can be removed from the ventilation panel storage section 32 diagonally upward from the front surface of the machine room 3.

[0055] 6 to 8, a filter 30b is detachably attached to the rear side of the ventilation panel 30. The ventilation panel 30 includes a detachable metal filter 30b, and is configured so that the filter 30b can be detached from the ventilation panel 30 when the ventilation panel 30 is rotated forward from the front surface of the machine room 3 and tilted.

[0056] As shown in FIG. 8, the filter 30b is composed of a metallic frame portion 30b1 that reacts to magnetic force and a mesh portion 30b2 that collects dust and other debris mixed in the outside air.

[0057] 6 and 8 to 10, magnets 32b are provided on the left and right sides of the ventilation panel storage section 32, and when the ventilation panel 30 with the filter 30b attached is stored in the ventilation panel storage section 32, the left and right ends of the metal frame section 30b1 of the filter 30b are attracted by the magnetic force of the magnets 32b, so that the ventilation panel 30 with the filter 30b can be fixed by the magnetic force of the magnets 32b. It is even better to position the magnets 32b on the left and right sides of the ventilation panel storage section 32 in positions opposite the left and right ends of the metal frame section 30b1 of the filter 30b, because a stronger magnetic force will be applied when fixing the ventilation panel 30 with the filter 30b.

[0058] If an attempt is made to store the ventilation panel 30 in the ventilation panel storage section 32 without attaching the filter 30b to the ventilation panel 30, the magnetic force of the magnet 32b will not act on the ventilation panel 30 if the ventilation panel 30 is made of a material such as metal or resin that is not affected by magnetic force. Therefore, for example, even if the ventilation panel 30 is attached to the ventilation panel storage section 32 from diagonally above the front of the machine room 3 and the ventilation panel 30 is rotated backwards to store it in the ventilation panel storage section 32, the magnetic force will not act, and the ventilation panel 30 will fall forward and tilt, making it impossible to store the ventilation panel 30 in the ventilation panel storage section 32.

[0059] When this state is reached, the user can notice that the filter 30b is not attached to the ventilation panel 30, and can then attach the filter 30b to the ventilation panel 30 again and store the ventilation panel 30 in the ventilation panel storage section 32.

[0060] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 11, a filter lower receiving portion 30g and a filter lower holding portion 30d are provided at the lower end of the ventilation panel 30, and filter side holding portions 30e are provided at the left and right ends of the ventilation panel 30, thereby enabling the filter 30b to be attached and held on the ventilation panel 30.

[0061] Also, as shown in FIG. 11, if a part of the filter side pressing portion 30e is cut out and this position is set as the magnet facing position 30f, the left and right ends of the frame portion 30b1 of the filter 30b correspond to the position facing the magnet 32b. Therefore, when the ventilation panel 30 with the filter 30b attached is stored in the ventilation panel storage portion 32, the left and right ends of the metal frame portion 30b1 of the filter 30b are easily attracted by the magnetic force of the magnet 32b. The ventilation panel 30 having the filter 30b can be fixed in place. [Industrial Applicability]

[0062] According to the present invention, a cooking device equipped with a ventilation panel that is easy for the user to use can be provided, and therefore the cooking device is useful for commercial and home use, for example, high-frequency cooking devices such as microwave ovens, oven ranges, and toaster ovens.
