Abstract: An electric cooking appliance comprises a base frame having a front and rear and left and right sides connecting the front and rear. A generally planar, electrically heated cooking surface is supported by the base frame and has a front and rear edge and a pair of sides connecting the front and rear edges. A splash guard is removably or secured to and extends upwardly from the rear edge and a portion of each of the sides of the cooking surface. A recess or groove is formed in the cooking surface to collect excess cooking oil; and an oil reservoir is carried by the base frame and in fluid communication with the recess in the cooking surface to collect cooking oil from the recess.

Abstract: An electric scone machine or steak machine comprises hinge-connected upper and lower bakeware bodies (1, 2). The upper and lower bakeware bodies (1, 2) consist of upper and lower metal housings (101, 201) and upper and lower heating plates (102, 202). The upper and lower heating plates (102, 202) are correspondingly mounted in the upper and lower metal housings (101, 201), and are formed in a manner that baking hot surfaces (102-1, 202-1) of the upper and lower heating plates (102, 202) are opposite to each other when closed. Nonmetallic disk-shaped upper and lower heat insulating housings (103, 203) are disposed between the upper metal housing (101) and the upper heating plate (102) and between the lower metal housing (201) and the lower heating plate (202) respectively.
