Electric Grill - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240023756 titled 'Electric Grill
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an electric grill that includes a heating platform, side walls, and grill bars. These components define a heating chamber where food is cooked. The heating platform is electrically heated, and there are two air supplies in the grill.
- The first air supply delivers pressurized air evenly across the heating platform from a central location.
- The second air supply directs airflow along the side walls, creating a vortex of air around the first air supply.
- The forced airflow enhances the combustion of fats and oils from the food being cooked, eliminating the need for a fat tray.
Potential Applications:
- Home cooking: The electric grill can be used in households for grilling various food items.
- Restaurants and cafes: This innovation can be utilized in commercial kitchens to enhance the grilling process.
- Outdoor events: The electric grill can be used for outdoor cooking at picnics, barbecues, and other gatherings.
Problems Solved:
- Improved combustion: The forced airflow ensures fuller combustion of fats and oils from food, reducing the need for a fat tray and minimizing smoke and odors.
- Even heating: The evenly distributed pressurized air across the heating platform ensures consistent and uniform cooking of food.
Benefits:
- Healthier cooking: The fuller combustion of fats and oils results in healthier grilled food with reduced fat content.
- Convenience: The elimination of a fat tray simplifies the cleaning process and makes the grill easier to maintain.
- Enhanced flavor: The improved combustion enhances the flavor of the grilled food by reducing smoke and retaining the natural taste.
Original Abstract Submitted
an electric grill comprises a heating platform, side walls, and grill bars spaced above the heating platform, together defining a heating chamber. the heating platform is heated electrically. a first air supply delivers pressurised air evenly across the heating platform from a central location. a second air supply directs airflow along the side walls to create a vortex of air flowing around the first air supply. the forced airflow provides for fuller combustion of fats and oils from foodstuffs being cooked so that no fat tray is required.
