１８を設けたものが一般的であった。A circular outer cover 6 that covers the upper opening of the main body is rotatably supported on the hinge part 5, and a hook part 7 is provided at the upper end of the main body opposite to the hinge part 6 to connect the main body and the outer cover 6. a lower frame 8 with legs that covers the lower opening of the outer frame 1, or
As shown in FIG. 2, the main body has a bottomed cylindrical inner frame 12 with a substantially square cross section inside an outer frame 11 with a substantially square cross section, and a cast-in heater 13 is fixed to the upper surface of the bottom of the inner frame 12. A bottomed cylindrical pot 14 with a substantially square cross section is removably mounted on the upper surface of the casting heater 13, and a hinge portion 16 is provided at the upper end of the center of the square side of the main body, and the hinge portion 16 is rotatable. A square outer lid 16 that freely covers the upper opening of the main body is pivotally supported, and a hook portion 17 is provided at the upper end of the center of the square side of the main body opposite to the hinge portion 15 to lock the main body and the outer lid 16. However, a lower frame 18 with legs covering the lower opening of the outer frame 11 was generally provided.

、大きな占有面積となるという問題があった。However, with this configuration, in the circular inner frame-inner pot type (Figure 1), the pot rotates easily when taking out the food in the pot, making it very difficult to scoop with a shamoji etc. There was a problem with bad sex. Further, when used in a kitchen of a general household, the area occupied by the device requires a square circumscribing the circular outer frame 1, and there is a problem in that a portion of the area at each corner is wasted. On the other hand, in the square inner frame-square pot type shown in Fig. 2, when the pot is attached or removed, the corners of the pot
There was a problem in that it got caught in the corners of the inner frame, resulting in very poor operability. Further, since a hinge part and a hook part are required for attaching the outer cover, the occupied area is required to cover a rectangle circumscribing the hinge part and the hook part, resulting in a large occupied area.

きるものである。Composition of the Invention The cooking utensil of the present invention includes a main body consisting of an outer frame having a substantially rectangular cross section, a bottomed cylindrical inner frame housed in the outer frame, and a bottomed tube detachably housed in the inner frame. A shaped pot, a hinge part provided at the upper end of one corner of an outer frame with a substantially square cross section, and a top opening of the main body are covered.
The outer cover is rotatably supported on the hinge part, the hook part is provided at the upper end of one corner of the outer frame opposite the hinge part to lock the outer cover and the main body, and the bottom opening of the main body is covered. A lower frame with legs is provided, and the cross section of the inner frame and the pot is approximately elliptical with the short axis of the diagonal line connecting the hinge part and the hook part being the long axis perpendicular to the short axis. This makes it easy to put on and take off the pot without getting caught, and when taking out the food in the pot, the pot does not rotate and can be scooped out easily, making it very easy to operate. , there is no wasted space on the upper surface of the outer frame having a substantially rectangular cross section, and the occupied area is small, allowing for space saving.

ある。In FIGS. 3 and 4, 21 is a cylindrical outer frame with a substantially square cross section, 22 is a resin annular upper frame forming the upper end surface of outer frame 21, and 23 is provided at the upper end of one corner of upper frame 22. The hinge portion 24 covers the upper opening of the upper frame 22, and the hinge portion 23
25 is a hook portion provided at the upper end of one corner of the upper frame 22 facing the hinge portion 23 so as to lock the outer lid 24 and the upper frame 22; 26 is a hook portion rotatably supported on the outer lid; It was placed inside the frame 21 and its upper end surface was fixed to the upper frame 22. It is a cylindrical inner frame with a bottom and a substantially elliptical cross section drawn from a thin metal plate, with the short axis of the ellipse aligned on the diagonal line connecting the hinge part 23 and the hook part 26, and the long axis of the ellipse in the right angle direction. have. 2
7 is a cooking heater fixed to the bottom upper surface of the inner frame 26;
Reference numeral 28 is a pot that is housed in the inner frame 26 and is detachably placed on the upper surface of the heater 27 and has an approximately elliptical upper cross section and a substantially circular lower cross section; 29 is a pot with legs that covers the lower opening of the outer frame 11; This is the bottom frame.

庭における省スペースに非常に有効となる。To explain the characteristics of the above configuration, the pot 28 has an approximately elliptical upper cross section and an approximately circular lower cross section,
When setting the pot into the inner frame 26, which has a substantially elliptical cross section, the pot can be inserted from any direction, and when inserted, the pot 28 is set without rotating so as to fit into the ellipse of the inner frame 26. At this time, the rotation angle of the pot is at most 90', and there is no difficulty in operability. Moreover, since there is no corner with a small radius, the pot 28 and the inner frame 26 will not get caught, so the pot 28 can be easily set. Furthermore, when taking out the food to be cooked from inside the pot 28, the upper part of the pot 28 and the inner frame 26 have a substantially elliptical cross section, and when the pot 28 is set, they hardly rotate. You can easily scoop out rice. On the other hand, the hinge portion 23. Both the hook parts 26 are provided inside the outer frame 21, and since the long axis of the ellipse of the pot 28 is perpendicular to the diagonal line connecting the two, the inside of the outer frame 21 can be effectively utilized over the entire surface. Moreover, since its occupied area is a square of the outer shape of the outer frame 21, it is very effective in saving space in a general household.
