OVERFLOW PAN ASSEMBLY WITH SPLASHGUARD CAP

摘要

An overflow pan assembly includes a pan, cap, pair of first handles and pair of second handles. The pan has a lower cooking chamber formed by a bottom wall and annular shaped lower side wall and an upper reservoir chamber formed above the lower cooking chamber by an annular shaped upper side wall and annular shaped ledge extending between and interconnecting the lower side wall and upper side wall. The cap has an inner splash chamber inside the cap formed by a top wall and annular shaped side wall and an outer catch chamber outside the cap formed by the side wall of the cap and upper side wall and ledge of the pan. The first handles are mounted to the upper side wall of the pan opposite one another. The second handles are mounted to the side wall of the cap opposite one another. The second handles are pairable with and restable upon the first handles such that the cap can be placed in an opened position spaced above the pan leaving a gap therebetween above the ledge of the pan for allowing fluid to pass between the lower cooking chamber and outer catch chamber. The second handles are separable from the first handles such that the cap can be placed in a closed position upon the ledge of the pan closing the gap and preventing passage of fluid therethrough. A rotatable vent closure member and vent holes are provided on the cap to relieve pressure in the splash chamber of the cap.
