Abstract
A mounting structure of a heating element is provided. The structure includes: a heater supporting bracket that is interposed between a radiant heating element and a supporting panel and whose one side is fixed by a screw and whose other side is elastically supported so as to elastically support the radiant heating element.
Claims26
A mounting structure of a radiant heating element, comprising:
- a hot plate to which heat of the radiant heating element is transferred;
- a cooktop frame by which the hot plate is supported;
- a supporting panel formed at a lower portion spaced from the radiant heating element;
- a heater supporting bracket between the radiant heating element and the supporting panel, for having the radiant heating element stick to the hot plate, the heater supporting bracket being interconnectable with the supporting panel by a protuberance which is receivable in a receiving aperture;
- and
- a panel supporting bracket between the supporting panel and the cooktop frame, for hanging the supporting panel.
