Abstract
According to one example, a cooking range pan includes an upper flange, an upper level coupled to the upper flange, and a lower level coupled to the upper level. The upper flange is configured to be coupled to a frame of a cooking range. The upper level includes one or more heat source holes that extend through a depth of the upper level. The lower level includes one or more additional heat source holes that extend through a depth of the lower level. The lower level is positioned vertically lower than the upper level. Each of the heat source holes and the additional heat source holes are configured to surround a portion of a respective heat source of the cooking range.
Claims28
A cooking range, comprising
- a. a frame having an upper rim surrounding an upper opening of a cavity;
- b. a pan coupled to the frame, the pan extending downward into the upper opening of the cavity, the pan having an upper level and a lower level, the lower level being positioned vertically lower than the upper level, the pan further having one or more upward extending ridges that separate the upper level from the lower level, wherein the top-most portion of each of the ridges is positioned vertically higher than the upper level;
- and
- c. a plurality of heat sources, wherein a first heat source of the plurality of heat sources is positioned within the lower level, wherein a second heat source of the plurality of heat sources is positioned within the upper level, wherein a third heat source of the plurality of heat sources is positioned within the upper level, wherein a fourth heat source of the plurality of heat sources is positioned within the upper level, wherein the first heat source is positioned vertically lower than each of the second, third, and fourth heat sources, wherein the first heat source is configured to provide a higher maximum thermal output than each of the second, third, and fourth heat sources, wherein the maximum thermal output of the first heat source is at least about 26,000 British thermal units (BTUs), and wherein the maximum thermal output of each of the second, third, and fourth heat sources is at least about 18,000 BTUs.
