ABSTRACT:
An improved electric cooking appliance such as a hot plate, range or griddle, particularly for use in a commercial countertop application. This class of appliance has a case supporting an electric heating element and the space between the heating element and the bottom of the case is limited because of the height restrictions of the counter type appliance. The improved appliance has a baffle extending across the entire breadth of the case below the heating element and separating the case into the heating element compartment on the upper side of the baffle and the control compartment located on the lower side. The controls including a switch or the like are located in the lower compartment and thereby are separated from the heating element by this baffle. Both the heating element compartment and the control compartment are provided with openings in the case at opposite sides of the compartment to allow convective airflow cooling of the compartment.
