Definitions
- the present invention relates to a cooking oven, in particular for domestic use, of the type comprising a cooking enclosure having, on one of its side walls, a double wall delimiting a compartment inside which is mounted a circulation fan d air, the internal wall of the double wall having, at its lower part, at least one so-called air suction opening opposite which the fan is arranged and, at its upper part, at least one so-called discharge opening of air, as well as an electric heating resistance of the grill arranged in the enclosure, outside the compartment and facing the air discharge opening, and acting both as a broiler resistance when the oven is used in grill cooking mode for which the fan is inactive and heating resistance ventilated by the air circulation created by the fan when the oven is used in cooking mode n by forced convection.
- the invention proposes to solve this simple radiation problem of the grill in a simple and effective manner when it is used in forced convection cooking mode.
- the cooking oven according to the invention of the type recalled above and characterized in that the grill resistance is subject to means for reducing the power which it absorbs only when the oven is used in forced convection cooking mode.
- the temperature of the grill resistance is thus lower in cooking mode by forced convection than it is in cooking mode by grill.
- the power reduction means consist of a simple additional electrical heating resistor connected in series with the grill resistor by means of an electrical switching device and having an absorbed power notably lower than that of grill resistance.
- this additional resistance is placed in the enclosure, outside the compartment, and situated at the same level as the grill resistance. This arrangement increases the exchange surface between the grill resistance and the ventilated air, which reduces the temperature rise time of the oven.
- the cooking oven in particular for domestic use, comprises a cooking enclosure or cavity 1 of generally parallelepiped shape which, of course, is closed by a door (not shown) during the cooking.
- the enclosure 1 has, at its rear part, a double rear wall 2a and 2b delimiting a closed compartment 3 of rectangular cross section. Inside this compartment 3, in the vicinity of the floor 2c of the enclosure, is mounted an air circulation fan 4 driven in rotation by an electric motor 5 and placed in look of air suction openings 6 formed in the internal wall 2b of the enclosure. This same internal wall 2b of the enclosure is also provided with air delivery openings 7 located near the vault 2d of the enclosure.
- the compartment 3 of the cooking enclosure 1 also contains a thermostatic device (not shown) known per se for controlling the interior temperature of the enclosure.
- a grill heating element 8 is mounted at the top of the enclosure 1 parallel to its vault 2d, outside of its compartment 3, that is to say in the cooking chamber 9 proper, and opposite air discharge openings 7.
- This grill resistance 8 is intended to fulfill a double function, namely that of the grill itself when the oven is used in grill cooking mode for which the fan is not in operation, and that of air heating. ventilated under the action of the fan 4 to ensure an even distribution of heat throughout the volume of the cooking chamber 9 when the oven is used in forced convection cooking mode.
- an additional electric heating resistor 10 intended to be used only when the oven operates by forced convection, is connected in series with the grill resistor 8 (Figure 3) while being disposed in the enclosure outside. from its compartment 3 and at the same level as the grill element 8 ( Figure 2).
- This additional resistance 10 is chosen so as to develop, in forced convection cooking mode, a power significantly lower than that of the grill resistance 8.
- the additional resistor 10 develops a power of the order of 100 watts.
- the additional resistance 10 can be housed inside the compartment 3 so as to be used only as a contribution in temperature and not as a contribution in temperature and radiation.
- connection mode of the two electrical resistors 8 and 10 results from the simplified diagram of FIG. 3, in which we see that these two resistors are each associated with a switch contact 11, respectively 12, of a device electrical switching 13; the fan 4 is connected in parallel to the additional resistor 10.
- the selective opening or closing of the contacts 11 and 12 is effected by a single control button (not illustrated) located on the control panel of the oven.
- the entire assembly is intended to be connected via its terminals 14 and 15 to a voltage source, for example 230 volts.
- the contacts 11 and 12 are respectively in the closed and open position, so that only the grill element 8 is energized and therefore fulfills its conventional broiler function.
- the contacts 11 and 12 are respectively in the open and closed position, so that the two resistors in series 8 and 10, as well as the fan 4, are energized.
- the air from the cooking chamber 9 is sucked in by the fan 4, inside the compartment 3 of the enclosure via the openings 6, and is then projected onto the two resistors in series 8 and 10 via the openings 7 (see arrows F in FIG. 2) so as to heat the air in the cooking chamber 9.
- the additional resistance 10 therefore reduces the power absorbed by the grill element 8, so that the latter radiates more weakly.
- baking oven according to the invention described above can also use a additional heating by microwave, without departing from the scope of the invention.

Abstract
Description
La présente invention concerne un four de cuisson, notamment à usage domestique, du type comprenant une enceinte de cuisson présentant, sur l'une de ses parois latérales, une double paroi délimitant un compartiment à l'intérieur duquel est monté un ventilateur de circulation d'air, la paroi interne de la double paroi possédant, à sa partie inférieure, au moins une ouverture dite d'aspiration d'air en regard de laquelle est disposé le ventilateur et, à sa partie supérieure, au moins une ouverture dite de refoulement d'air, ainsi qu'une résistance chauffante électrique de gril disposée dans l'enceinte, à l'extérieur du compartiment et en regard de l'ouverture de refoulement d'air, et faisant office à la fois de résistance de grilloir lorsque le four est utilisé en mode de cuisson par gril pour lequel le ventilateur est inactif et de résistance de chauffage ventilé par la circulation de l'air créée par le ventilateur lorsque le four est utilisé en mode de cuisson par convection forcée.The present invention relates to a cooking oven, in particular for domestic use, of the type comprising a cooking enclosure having, on one of its side walls, a double wall delimiting a compartment inside which is mounted a circulation fan d air, the internal wall of the double wall having, at its lower part, at least one so-called air suction opening opposite which the fan is arranged and, at its upper part, at least one so-called discharge opening of air, as well as an electric heating resistance of the grill arranged in the enclosure, outside the compartment and facing the air discharge opening, and acting both as a broiler resistance when the oven is used in grill cooking mode for which the fan is inactive and heating resistance ventilated by the air circulation created by the fan when the oven is used in cooking mode n by forced convection.
Un tel four utilisant un même élément chauffant - résistance de gril - pour des modes de cuisson respectivement par gril et par convection forcée, est décrit notamment dans la demande de brevet EP 0 243 025.Such an oven using the same heating element - grill resistance - for cooking modes respectively by grill and by forced convection, is described in particular in patent application EP 0 243 025.
Bien qu'en mode de cuisson par convection forcée, la résistance de gril ventilée par la circulation de l'air créée par le ventilateur offre des temps de montée en température satisfaisants, il s'avère toutefois que, dans ce cas, le gril utilisé rayonne beaucoup trop, ce qui provoque un brûlage de la partie supérieure de l'aliment à cuire.Although in forced convection cooking, the grill resistance ventilated by the air circulation created by the fan offers satisfactory temperature rise times, it turns out, however, that in this case, the grill used radiates far too much, causing the top of the food to be cooked.
L'invention se propose de résoudre d'une manière simple et efficace ce problème du rayonnement important du gril lorsqu'il est utilisé en mode de cuisson par convection forcée.The invention proposes to solve this simple radiation problem of the grill in a simple and effective manner when it is used in forced convection cooking mode.
Ce but est atteint par le four de cuisson selon l'invention, du type rappelé ci-dessus et caractérisé en ce que la résistance de gril est assujettie à des moyens de réduction de la puissance qu'elle absorbe seulement lorsque le four est utilisé en mode de cuisson par convection forcée.This object is achieved by the cooking oven according to the invention, of the type recalled above and characterized in that the grill resistance is subject to means for reducing the power which it absorbs only when the oven is used in forced convection cooking mode.
Grâce à cet assujettissement sélectif de la résistance de gril aux moyens de réduction de sa puissance, la température de la résistance de gril est ainsi inférieure en mode de cuisson par convection forcée à ce qu'elle est en mode de cuisson par gril.Thanks to this selective subjection of the grill resistance to the means of reducing its power, the temperature of the grill resistance is thus lower in cooking mode by forced convection than it is in cooking mode by grill.
Selon un mode de réalisation préféré, les moyens de réduction de puissance sont constitués par une simple résistance additionnelle de chauffage électrique branchée en série avec la résistance de gril au moyen d'un dispositif de commutation électrique et présentant une puissance absorbée notablement inférieure à celle de la résistance de gril.According to a preferred embodiment, the power reduction means consist of a simple additional electrical heating resistor connected in series with the grill resistor by means of an electrical switching device and having an absorbed power notably lower than that of grill resistance.
De façon avantageuse, cette résistance additionnelle est disposée dans l'enceinte, à l'extérieur du compartiment, et située au même niveau que la résistance de gril. Cette disposition permet d'augmenter la surface d'échange entre la résistance de gril et l'air ventilé, ce qui réduit le temps de montée en température du four.Advantageously, this additional resistance is placed in the enclosure, outside the compartment, and situated at the same level as the grill resistance. This arrangement increases the exchange surface between the grill resistance and the ventilated air, which reduces the temperature rise time of the oven.
D'autres particularités et avantages de l'invention apparaîtront mieux dans la description qui va suivre, à titre d'exemple, en référence aux dessins annexés dans lesquels :
- la figure 1 représente une vue en perspective simplifiée d'un four de cuisson selon l'invention ;
- la figure 2 représente une vue en coupe verticale transversale de ce four ; et
- la figure 3 représente de façon très simplifiée un schéma électrique du four.
- Figure 1 shows a simplified perspective view of a cooking oven according to the invention;
- Figure 2 shows a vertical cross-sectional view of this oven; and
- Figure 3 very schematically shows an electrical diagram of the oven.
Dans l'exemple de réalisation illustré sur les figures 1 et 2, le four de cuisson notamment à usage domestique comprend une enceinte ou cavité de cuisson 1 de forme générale parallélépipédique qui, naturellement, est fermée par une porte (non représentée) au cours de la cuisson.In the embodiment illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, the cooking oven, in particular for domestic use, comprises a cooking enclosure or
Dans cet exemple, l'enceinte 1 présente, à sa partie arrière, une double paroi arrière 2a et 2b délimitant un compartiment fermé 3 de section droite rectangulaire. A l'intérieur de ce compartiment 3, au voisinage de la sole 2c de l'enceinte, est monté un ventilateur de circulation d'air 4 entraîné en rotation par un moteur électrique 5 et placé en regard d'ouvertures d'aspiration d'air 6 ménagées dans la paroi interne 2b de l'enceinte. Cette même paroi interne 2b de l'enceinte est également dotée d'ouvertures de refoulement d'air 7 situées à proximité de la voûte 2d de l'enceinte.In this example, the
Le compartiment 3 de l'enceinte de cuisson 1 contient aussi un dispositif thermostatique (non représenté) connu en soi pour contrôler la température intérieure de l'enceinte.The
Une résistance chauffante de gril 8 est montée dans le haut de l'enceinte 1 parallèlement à sa voûte 2d, à l'extérieur de son compartiment 3, c'est-à-dire dans la chambre de cuisson 9 proprement dite, et en regard des ouvertures de refoulement d'air 7.A
Cette résistance de gril 8 est destinée à remplir une double fonction, à savoir celle de grilloir proprement dit lorsque le four est utilisé en mode de cuisson par gril pour lequel le ventilateur n'est pas en fonctionnement, et celle de chauffage de l'air ventilé sous l'action du ventilateur 4 pour assurer une répartition régulière de la chaleur dans tout le volume de la chambre de cuisson 9 lorsque le four est utilisé en mode de cuisson par convection forcée.This
Selon l'invention, une résistance additionnelle de chauffage électrique 10 destinée à être utilisée uniquement lorsque le four fonctionne par convection forcée, est branchée en série avec la résistance de gril 8 (Figure 3) en étant disposée dans l'enceinte à l'extérieur de son compartiment 3 et au même niveau que la résistance de gril 8 (Figure 2). Cette résistance additionnelle 10 est choisie de manière à développer, en mode de cuisson par convection forcée, une puissance notablement inférieure à celle de la résistance de gril 8. A titre d'exemple nullement limitatif, dans le cas où la résistance de gril 8 développe une puissance de 1200 watts sous une tension d'alimentation de 230 volts, la résistance additionnelle 10 développe, elle, une puissance de l'ordre de 100 watts.According to the invention, an additional
Dans un mode de réalisation, non représenté, la résistance additionnelle 10 peut être logée à l'intérieur du compartiment 3 de manière à être utilisée uniquement comme un apport en température et non comme un apport en température et en rayonnement.In one embodiment, not shown, the
Le mode de connexion des deux résistances électriques 8 et 10 qui viennent d'être décrites résulte du schéma simplifié de la figure 3, sur laquelle on voit que ces deux résistances sont associées chacune à un contact interrupteur 11, respectivement 12, d'un dispositif de commutation électrique 13 ; le ventilateur 4 est connecté en parallèle sur la résistance additionnelle 10. L'ouverture ou la fermeture sélective des contacts 11 et 12 est opérée par un seul bouton de commande (non illustré) situé sur le bandeau de commande du four. L'ensemble du montage est destiné à être raccordé par ses bornes 14 et 15 à une source de tension, par exemple de 230 volts.The connection mode of the two
En référence aux figures 2 et 3, on va maintenant décrire le fonctionnement du four de cuisson que l'on vient d'exposer.Referring to Figures 2 and 3, we will now describe the operation of the cooking oven that we have just exposed.
Lorsque le four est utilisé en mode de cuisson par gril, les contacts 11 et 12 sont respectivement en position fermée et ouverte, de sorte que seule la résistance de gril 8 est mise sous tension et remplit dès lors sa fonction classique de grilloir.When the oven is used in the grill cooking mode, the
Lorsque le four est utilisé en mode de cuisson par convection forcée, les contacts 11 et 12 sont respectivement en position ouverte et fermée, de sorte que les deux résistances en série 8 et 10, ainsi que le ventilateur 4, sont mis sous tension. Au cours de la rotation du ventilateur 4, l'air de la chambre de cuisson 9 est aspiré par le ventilateur 4, à l'intérieur du compartiment 3 de l'enceinte via les ouvertures 6, et est ensuite projeté sur les deux résistances en série 8 et 10 via les ouvertures 7 (voir flèches F sur la figure 2) de façon à chauffer l'air de la chambre de cuisson 9. Dans ce mode d'utilisation du four, la résistance additionnelle 10 réduit donc la puissance absorbée par la résistance de gril 8, de sorte que cette dernière rayonne plus faiblement.When the oven is used in forced convection cooking mode, the
Il va de soi que le four de cuisson selon l'invention décrit ci-dessus peut également faire appel à un chauffage additionnel par micro-ondes, sans sortir pour cela du cadre de l'invention.It goes without saying that the baking oven according to the invention described above can also use a additional heating by microwave, without departing from the scope of the invention.
