Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to an oven toaster for general household use.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A general structure of a conventional oven toaster has a cooking chamber provided with heaters above and below inside an exterior body, and a grill is provided between the upper and lower heaters to open a front opening of the exterior body. The door which opens and closes a part is attached. In addition, a heat shield plate is provided between the cooking chamber and the exterior body and the control circuit to prevent the exterior body and the control circuit from becoming hot, and there is no idea of utilizing the residual heat of the heater provided in the cooking chamber. Was.

[0003]

In a conventional oven toaster, only the function of heating and cooking food such as bread and pizza is not provided, and there is no function of simultaneously heating a bread dish or the like. The bread and the like had to be put on a cold plate, and the bread and the like were immediately cooled.

An object of the present invention is to provide an oven toaster having a function of solving the above problem and heating a bread dish or the like while heating food such as bread.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a cooking chamber equipped with a heater, and additionally a storage space (heating chamber) such as a pan plate for providing food such as bread. At the same time as the cooking of the pan, the function of heating the bread dish and the like using the remaining heat of the cooking chamber heater transmitted to the heating chamber is added.

[0006] The location where the above-mentioned heating room is provided can be a suitable place inside the oven toaster main body. However, since the heat of the cooking room heater rises above the cooking room, it is provided above the cooking room. It is effective.

The heating time for cooking differs depending on the kind of a thing to be heated, such as bread or pizza, and the size and thickness of the bread plate and the like also vary. Therefore, it is preferable that the temperature of the heating chamber can be adjusted in order to appropriately warm the bread dish and the like. As means for adjusting the temperature of the heating chamber, a heat shield plate and a temperature control plate that slides back and forth or left and right in contact with the heat shield plate are provided between the cooking chamber and the heating chamber thereabove. An opening of the same size is provided at the same position of the above, and by sliding this temperature control plate back and forth or left and right, the size of the opening formed by the respective openings of the stacked heat shield plate and the temperature control plate. By changing the temperature, the transmission of residual heat is adjusted, and the temperature of the heating room is adjusted.

In addition, a heating room is separately provided in addition to a cooking room provided with a heater, and a heater is provided in the heating room to add a function of heating food such as bread and heating a bread plate at the same time. I'm going to do that.

As means for adjusting the temperature of the heating chamber provided with the heater, a unique control circuit is provided separately from the control circuit of the heater of the cooking chamber.

Further, the simplest and cheapest structure is that the heating chamber is not provided in addition to the cooking chamber, the upper part of the exterior body is designed to be flat, and an opening hole is provided in the heat shield plate inside the cooking chamber. There is a structure in which the residual heat of the heater is transmitted to the top plate of the exterior body, and the bread dish is simply placed on the top of the exterior body to warm it.

As means for adjusting the temperature of the top panel of the outer package, a heat shield plate and a temperature control plate which slides back and forth or right and left in contact with the heat shield plate are provided at the upper part of the cooking chamber. The size of the opening formed by the stacked heat shield plate and the temperature adjustment plate is changed by sliding this temperature adjustment plate back and forth or left and right. This controls the transmission of residual heat and regulates the temperature of the exterior top plate.
