Cooking apparatus

Abstract

A cooking apparatus includes: a main body configured to form a cooking chamber; a burner configured to generate heat to heat the cooking chamber, the burner including a burner frame through which gas flows and a burner hole formed in the burner frame to discharge the gas; an ignition device configured to ignite the gas discharged through the burner hole and including a heater; and a bracket configured to protect the ignition device. The bracket may include a plurality of bracket holes configured to allow the gas discharged through the burner hole to pass therethrough and to prevent or reduce radiant heat of the heater from being transferred to the burner.

1 . A cooking apparatus comprising: 
 a main body forming a cooking chamber;   a burner configured to generate heat to heat the cooking chamber, the burner including a burner frame through which gas flows and a burner hole formed in the burner frame to discharge the gas flowing through the burner frame;   an ignition device, including a heater, configured to ignite the gas discharged through the burner hole with the heater; and   a bracket configured to protect the ignition device, the bracket including a plurality of bracket holes that are configured such that the gas discharged through the burner hole passes through the plurality of bracket holes, and the plurality of bracket holes prevent or reduce radiant heat of the heater from being transferred to the burner.   
     
     
         2 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the gas discharged through the burner hole is ignited by contacting a surface of the heater after passing through the plurality of bracket holes. 
     
     
         3 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the bracket includes a bracket body accommodating the ignition device, and 
       the plurality of bracket holes penetrate the bracket body and open toward the burner hole. 
     
     
         4 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the plurality of bracket holes has a slit shape. 
     
     
         5 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 4 , wherein the bracket includes a recess portion disposed adjacent to the plurality of bracket holes to guide the gas discharged through the burner hole to pass through the plurality of bracket holes. 
     
     
         6 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 5 , wherein the bracket includes a bracket body accommodating the ignition device, 
       the recess portion has a downwardly inclined shape toward the plurality of bracket holes, and a depth of the recess portion is greater than a thickness of the bracket body. 
     
     
         7 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the bracket includes: 
 a bracket body accommodating the ignition device, and   a gas guide extending from the bracket body toward the burner to guide the gas discharged through the burner hole to flow toward the heater.   
     
     
         8 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 7 , wherein the gas guide includes a first guide, and 
       a second guide spaced apart from the first guide and configured to form a guide flow path together with the first guide to guide the gas discharged from the burner hole to flow toward 
       the heater. 
     
     
         9 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein a spacing distance between the first guide and the second guide decreases toward the burner. 
     
     
         10 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 8 , wherein the guide flow path is configured to communicate with the burner hole. 
     
     
         11 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the burner hole is a first burner hole, and 
       the burner includes a second burner hole formed in the burner frame and configured to receive a flame generated from the first burner hole. 
     
     
         12 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the burner hole is a plurality of first burner holes, 
       the burner includes a plurality of second burner holes formed in the burner frame and configured to receive a flame generated from the plurality of first burner holes, 
       the plurality of first burner holes are arranged along a circumferential direction of the burner frame, and 
       the plurality of second burner holes are arranged along a longitudinal direction of the burner frame. 
     
     
         13 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising: 
 a gas supply valve configured to control a flow rate of gas supplied to the burner, the gas supply valve configured to open in response to the heater of the ignition device reaching a predetermined temperature.   
     
     
         14 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising: 
 a burner accommodation chamber located below the cooking chamber and accommodating the burner, the ignition device, and the bracket;   a bottom plate partitioning the cooking chamber and the burner accommodation chamber and including a heat supply portion configured to supply heat of the burner accommodation chamber to the cooking chamber; and   a guide plate located below the bottom plate, supported by the burner, and configured to diffuse a flame generated by the burner.   
     
     
         15 . The cooking apparatus of  claim 1 , further comprising: 
 a fixing member fixing the bracket to the burner.
