Abstract
A grill device includes an upper grill unit pivoted to a lower grill unit so as to rotate about an axis between an open position, and a closed position, in which, the upper and lower grill units cooperatively define a cooking space therebetween. A seasoning supplying unit includes a vessel mounted in the cooking space to receive a body of seasonings in liquid form, and a thermal conductive dispenser. The thermal conductive dispenser is extendible into the vessel when the upper grill unit is positioned at the closed position, and defines a plurality of channels. Each of the channel has an inlet that is immersed in seasonings in the vessel, and an outlet that is exposed from the vessel when the upper grill unit is positioned at the closed position.
Claims5
A grill device comprising:
- a lower grill unit having a rear portion and a top that is provided with a lower cooking member;
- an upper grill unit having a bottom that is provided with an upper cooking member, and a rear portion pivoted to said rear portion of said lower grill unit so as to rotate about an axis between an open position, and a closed position, in which, said upper and lower cooking members cooperatively confine a cooking space therebetween;
- and
- a seasoning supplying unit including
- a vessel mounted in said cooking space and adapted to receive a body of seasonings in liquid form, and
- a thermal conductive dispenser mounted in said cooking space and extendible into said vessel when said upper grill unit is positioned at said closed position, said thermal conductive dispenser defining a plurality of channels, each of which has an inlet that is immersed in the body of seasonings in said vessel, and an outlet that is exposed from said vessel when said upper grill unit is positioned at said closed position, so that when said thermal conductive dispenser is heated, a stream of seasonings continuously enters from said vessel into each of said channels via said inlet, and is ejected via said outlet into said cooking space by virtue of vaporization of the stream of seasonings in each of said channels.
