Definitions

  • the invention relates to a cooking appliance with a hob, which includes a top plate and a burner.
  • the invention particularly relates to the attachment of the burner on the hob.
  • the burners of a cooking appliance can be mounted on a hob, on which an opening is provided for each burner.
  • One of the fastening methods is that the burner housing is generally fastened with screws to the lower plate (15) of the cooktop or to an external base ( 10 and 11 ). Thereafter, the lower plate or the lower support is attached to the side walls of the cooking appliance. In the first method, there is no connection between the burner and the top plate.
  • the burner housing is secured to the upper plate usually with screws passing through the burner housing or through the top plate ( FIGS. 12, 13 and 14 ).
  • the gas distributor and the burner housing which are located on the hob, are connected to each other with screws or similar elements.
  • the burner housing is supported by the top plate.
  • the burner housing is also supported by a bottom plate or bottom post.
  • US 4,572,154 A discloses a gas hob having a top plate with at least one opening, a burner, means for separately releasably holding the burners in the opening, which is the sole support for the burner, a burner box below the burner, the burner having an opening at the bottom to receive gas to be combusted to absorb gas and a gas port located in the burner box below the burner, located immediately below and spaced therefrom of the burner opening and therebetween and without air shut-off means therebetween.
  • the object of the invention is to ensure that the flame produced at the burner is at the same distance from the top plate of the hob.
  • the object of the invention is to tenuneisten that the flame produced at the burner in order to meet the stated object, the invention requires a cooking appliance with at least one hob, which has at least one opening on the top plate; with at least one burner housing, the neck portion protrudes from the opening and the remainder is disposed below the top plate; with a support wall on the burner housing, which is disposed below the top plate and oriented away from the top plate oriented.
  • the cooking appliance also has a fastener with a support member which is in contact with the support wall, and a holder which extends from the support member via the Opening of the top plate extends to the surface of the top plate and carries over the support wall, the burner housing.
  • the neck portion of the burner housing will reach a uniform height above the top plate at each point.
  • the gas distributor, burner cap, and flame associated with the neck portion will be at a uniform distance from the top plate.
  • a uniformly spaced flame optimizes carbon monoxide (CO) and avoids reducing combustion efficiency.
  • the invention requires no screws for fastening, processing and time-consuming fasteners, whereby a quick and easy installation of the burner is guaranteed.
  • the invention also prevents possible cracks of the paint on the top plate, which can be caused by the screws or tapped holes. Because the neck does not touch the edge of the opening, there will be no cracks.
  • no lower plate is required for the hob, because the burner is held by the holding member on the top plate.
  • the burner housing contains a flange which forms a support wall with the lower side, the neck part partially encloses and remains under the top plate.
  • the support member includes a Flanschaussparung in which at least a portion of the flange is located.
  • the bracket includes a clamp which, while mounting the burner housing with a fastener while allowing the upward movement of the top plate, but prevents the downward movement of the burner housing during operation.
  • the clip includes a support surface which is parallel to the top plate of the hob.
  • the clip when pushed up under the top plate, contacts the opening edge of the holder and causes the burner housing to be pushed toward the neck portion. As a result, a surface inclined upward from the support surface is obtained. Thus, the burner is hung on the top plate. Due to the design of the clamp, the entire edge of the opening is no longer hooked in to ensure equilibrium, but only the points necessary for this, resulting in a cost-effective installation of the burner.
  • the fastening element between the holder and the support member includes a flexible edge, whereby the holder can stretch in the direction of the neck portion of the burner housing.
  • the bracket can be extended back and forth as if it were rotating about the axis of the flexible edge. In this way, the assembly and disassembly of the invention is facilitated and created a flexible application.
  • the support member looks like a clamp in C-shape with two free ends.
  • a one-piece fastener is provided with multiple brackets. In this way, sufficient mounts can be used for a stable fixation in a single assembly step. As a result, production and processing costs are reduced.
  • the support member includes a flexible bridge member through which the free ends of the support member are pulled apart to the mounting position and then can return to the rest position.
  • the support element at both ends in each case a holding element to perform the force application, so that the two free Ends away from each other. This makes assembly and disassembly of the C-shaped fastener easier and saves time.
  • the fastener includes a spring steel. This ensures the required flexibility of the elements and at the same time achieves a high resistance in the fastening element.
  • the cooking device between the support member and the flange includes a sealing element. In this way, the penetration of liquids from the top plate of the hob is prevented down.
  • the top plate includes a recess at the opening edge directly opposite the holder.
  • an expansion distance between the holder and the neck portion of the burner housing is provided.
  • a distance for the expansion and bending of the holder is obtained during assembly.
