摘要:
A household electric flat bread making appliance has a heated lower pressure plate fixed to a frame, an upwardly biased upper heated pressure plate pivotally mounted on the frame, and a heated skillet mounted on the frame in general vertical alignment with the pressure plates. A handle is connected to the upper pressure plate to enable the upper pressure plate to be manually pivoted downwardly toward the lower pressure plate to flatten a mass of dough between the two pressure plates. The handle is rotatable and has a generally circular arm with an eccentric upper surface for engaging an abutment that projects forwardly from the lower pressure plate in a position wherein the arm is engageable with the bottom surface of the abutment by rotation of the handle so that the handle may be rotated when the upper pressure plate is lowered toward the lower pressure plate to engage under the abutment and the handle may be released by the operator with the engagement of the abutment by the arm preventing the upper pressure plate from being pivoted upwardly. The handle can be disconnected and stored in a holster when the appliance is not in use. The skillet has sloping sides so that it may be used to heat fillings for a flat bread roll up.
摘要:
A household electric appliance has three basic components, a griddle, a skillet which can be placed on the griddle to be heated thereby when the griddle is not otherwise in use, and a skillet lid which can be placed atop the skillet. The appliance can be compactly assembled for storage by changing the manner in which the components are stacked. When compactly assembled for storage, the three basic components can be clamped together and stored on edge to conserve lateral storage space. Two types of clamps are described, a resilient strap clamp and a wire rod clip. Operation of the appliance is controlled by a thermostat and a heating control panel is provided that has two sets of indicia, one for use when the griddle is used by itself and one for use when the skillet is used.
