This application is the National Stage of International Application No. PCT/IB2007/003328 filed on Oct. 29, 2007, which claims the benefit of Italian Application No. RN2007A000012 filed on Feb. 27, 2007. The contents of both applications are hereby incorporated by reference in their entirety.
This invention relates to a cooking top, especially a cooking top suitable for household use and comprising at least one gas burner.
The market currently offers several different types of domestic cooking tops. One of the most widely used types of cooking top includes one or more gas burners where the heat necessary for cooking food is generated by the combustion of a gas suitably mixed with air.
The invention will now be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate non-limiting preferred embodiments of it.
FIG. 1 is an exploded view of the cooking top according to this invention.
FIG. 2 is an exploded view of a detail from FIG. 1.
With reference to FIG. 1, the numeral 1 denotes a cooking top, in particular a cooking top suitable for household use. The cooking top 1 comprises an upward facing top cover 2 and at least one first gas burner 3. The top cover 2 is usually referred to simply as “surface” by experts in the trade.
The first gas burner 3 in turn comprises first flame divider means 310. The first flame divider means 310 put the first burner 3 in operative communication with the outside of the top cover 2 and comprise first flame outlets 34 in turn comprising outlet sections that face upwards at least partly. Advantageously, the first flame divider means 310 are located close to the top cover 2, and in some cases are mounted against the top cover 2.
The individual flames enabling the food to be cooked are generated outside the outlet sections of the first flame outlets 34.
