Abstract

A smokeless grill for food includes a supporting frame and a smokeless grilling arrangement. The smokeless grilling arrangement includes a heat accumulation housing, a heat generation module and a grill rack. The heat accumulation housing is supported on the supporting frame, and has a heat reflection cavity formed therein. The heat generation module, which is arranged to generate a predetermined amount of heat, supported in the heat accumulation housing, wherein the heat generated by the heat generation module is accumulatively reflected within the heat accumulation housing to substantially radiate to an exterior of the heat accumulation housing. The grill rack, which is supported by the supporting frame, adapted for supporting the food thereon, wherein the heat generated from the heat generation module is arranged to radiate on the food for heating up the food on the grill rack for grilling thereof in a smokeless manner.

Claims

1. A smokeless grill for food, comprising:

a stand; and

a smokeless grilling arrangement, which comprises;

a grill rack supported by said stand for supporting said food; and

a heat generation module for generating a predetermined amount of radiating heat towards said grill rack for grilling said food thereon in a smokeless manner so as to provide a non-pollution grilling environment for said food.

2. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 1, wherein said smokeless grilling arrangement further comprises a heat accumulation housing having a heat reflection cavity substantially receiving said heat generation module therein such that said radiating heat from said heat generation module is accumulated to reflect towards said grill rack for evenly distributing said radiating heat to said grill rack.

3. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 2, wherein said heat accumulation housing has a semi-spherical cross section to accumulatively reflect said radiating heat at said heat reflection cavity towards said grill rack.

4. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 2, wherein said smokeless grilling arrangement further comprises a heat reflector supported underneath said grill rack, wherein said heat reflector has a heat reflection surface to reflect said radiating heat from said heat accumulation housing back to said grill rack for enhancing a grilling strength for said food.

5. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 3, wherein said smokeless grilling arrangement further comprises a heat reflector supported underneath said grill rack, wherein said heat reflector has a heat reflection surface to reflect said radiating heat from said heat accumulation housing back to said grill rack for enhancing a grilling strength for said food.

6. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 4, wherein said smokeless grilling arrangement further comprises a residual collection arrangement which has a collection opening formed on said heat reflector and comprises a base tray supported underneath said grill rack for collecting oil residuals from said food through said collection opening.

7. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 5, wherein said smokeless grilling arrangement further comprises a residual collection arrangement which has a collection opening formed on said heat reflector and comprises a base tray supported underneath said grill rack for collecting oil residuals from said food through said collection opening.

8. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 6, wherein said heat reflection surface of said heat reflector is extended inclinedly and downwardly towards said collection opening for not only guiding said oil residuals flowing towards said collection opening but also focusing said radiating heat back to said grill rack.

9. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 7, wherein said heat reflection surface of said heat reflector is extended inclinedly and downwardly towards said collection opening for not only guiding said oil residuals flowing towards said collection opening but also focusing said radiating heat back to said grill rack.

10. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 1, wherein said heat generation module comprises an electric heat tube for radially generating said radiating heat towards said grill rack.

11. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 3, wherein said heat generation module comprises an electric heat tube for radially generating said radiating heat towards said grill rack.

12. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 5, wherein said heat generation module comprises an electric heat tube for radially generating said radiating heat towards said grill rack.

13. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 9, wherein said heat generation module comprises an electric heat tube for radially generating said radiating heat towards said grill rack.

14. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 5, wherein a rear edge of said heat accumulation housing which is supported above said grill rack and is pivotally mounted to said heat reflector edge-to-edge to define an access opening for allowing said grill rack to be accessed therethrough.

15. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 7, wherein a rear edge of said heat accumulation housing which is supported above said grill rack and is pivotally mounted to said heat reflector edge-to-edge to define an access opening for allowing said grill rack to be accessed therethrough.

16. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 13, wherein a rear edge of said heat accumulation housing which is supported above said grill rack and is pivotally mounted to said heat reflector edge-to-edge to define an access opening for allowing said grill rack to be accessed therethrough.

17. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 2, wherein said heat accumulation housing is supported at a position behind said grill rack while said heat reflection cavity is frontwardly extended below said grill rack for reflectively and upwardly guiding said radiating heat towards said grill rack.

18. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 17, wherein said smokeless grilling arrangement further comprises a residual collection arrangement which has a collection opening formed on said heat accumulation housing and comprises a base tray supported underneath said grill rack for collecting oil residuals from said food through said collection opening.

19. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 18, wherein said smokeless grilling arrangement further comprises a heat reflector supported above said grill rack, wherein said heat reflector has a heat reflection surface to reflect said radiating heat from said heat accumulation housing to said grill rack for enhancing a grilling strength for said food.

20. The smokeless grill, as recited in claim 1, wherein said heat generation module comprises a charcoal tube for radially generating said radiating heat towards said grill rack.
