Abstract:
A cooking appliance includes a cooktop and a grate. The cooktop includes a bottom surface on which at least one gas burner is mounted. The cooktop further includes a periphery and an inner recessed area. The inner recessed area is recessed relative to the periphery. The inner recessed area is substantially defined by the bottom surface. The cooktop further includes a transition extending between the periphery and the inner recessed area and a sweep section extending between the periphery and the inner recessed area. The inner recessed area is surrounded substantially by the transition except at the sweep section. The grate is configured to be placed on the cooktop. Each of the sweep section and the transition extends between the bottom surface and a predetermined elevation above the bottom surface. The sweep section reaches the predetermined elevation in a more gradual manner than the transition reaches the predetermined elevation.
