ABSTRACT An improved cooktop mounting arrangement for a range with an upswept lift-up cooktop including a pair of upper pivot members extending from opposite sides of the upswept section of the cooktop, a pair of spaced lower pivot members extending from opposite sides of the cooktop near the intersection of the upswept section and the cooking surface section, and corresponding upper and lower guides supported from the main range body. The upper and lower guides are cooperatively configured to respectively simultaneously guide the upper pivot members through a vertically oriented arcuate path extending downwardly and forwardly and to guide the lower pivot members through a horizontally oriented path extending generally forwardly and upwardly as the cooktop moves from its lowered position to its raised position. This arrangement eliminates the need for a vertical gap for clearance between the upswept section and overhanging structure when the cooktop is in its lowered position, and also eliminates the need for space behind the upswept section to accommodate rearward movement of the upswept section.
