- The above object is reached thanks to the features reported in the appended claims.
- According to the invention, the oven comprises heating elements placed vertically on side walls of the cavity and attached to the external face of the cavity wall, in addition to traditional heating elements placed horizontally on top, bottom and rear walls. The concept is applicable to pyrolitic and non-pyrolitic ovens, and includes also the solution according to which the oven cavity does not have the traditional heating elements placed horizontally on top and/or bottom walls, and/or the solution according to which the oven cavity is provided, on back wall thereof, with a traditional central forced air fan and a heater, which can be a circular or non circular tubular heater or a quartz lamp.
- According to a first embodiment that does not form part of the invention, four tubular heating elements, two for each side of the oven cavity, are housed in suitable metal casings or 'pockets' that are attached to the external face of the cavity wall.
- According to a second embodiment that does not form part of the invention, four radiant heating elements are mounted directly behind the metallic walls of the oven cavity. In both the above embodiments, the cavity (when the separating plate is removed) does not distinguish, in a visual inspection, from a cavity of a traditional oven. As an alternative solution of the second embodiment, the oven cavity can be provided with openings closed by metal plates that cover the heater elements. In this case it is preferred to use for such plates a material different from the material of the oven walls, in order to improve and optimise heat transfer from the heating elements to the oven cavity.
- According to a third embodiment of the invention, a twin radiant heating element is mounted behind the metal side wall or behind a metallic or ceramic glass plate and is located at the centre of each side wall of the oven. In this case the heaters are aligned so as to transfer heat also to the separating and insulating plate faces, underneath the food tray or container as well as to the cavity. The scope here is to improve baking performance especially in terms of browning, crisping etc through the use of appropriate reflection.
- According to a fourth embodiment that does not form part of the invention four radiant heating elements in the form of quartz lamps, two for each side of the oven cavity are used. These are housed in suitable metal reflectors that are attached to the external face of the cavity wall and covered either by a metal plate (which can be integral with the oven wall) or ceramic glass.
- According to a fifth embodiment that does not form part of the present invention, the oven comprises a forced air fan and a heater for the main cavity and upper sub-cavity and two quartz lamps for the lower sub-cavity only. The heater can be a circular or non circular tubular heater or a quartz lamp.
- The walls of the oven cavity, of the oven door or accessories thereof (e.g. baking tray) are preferably coated with coatings including fluoropolymers with or without PTFE additives and fillers, Sol-Gel generated films and PECVD (Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition) generated films. All the above coatings have the specific intent to create an abrasive-corrosive resistant and non-stick surface applied to metallic (e.g. stainless steel) or non metallic (e.g. enamel) substrate. These coatings can be applied to all or part of the cavity or oven accessories or parts e.g. baking trays, oven door, racks etc. The coatings can be applied to sheet, pre-formed sheet or ready-to-use parts.
- The separating and insulating plate may be made of a material different from metal, i.e. polymeric material (preferably silicone resin type), tempered glass and Pyrex™ glass. The separating and insulating plate may also include a series of indications and/or guides (e.g. pressed/moulded directly in the plate material) to help the consumer position the food tray or container correctly. Further indications such as "Danger hot surface" or "Danger heavy weight" can also be added.
- When installed, the separating plate sits on side supports that also act as heat and odour barriers around the perimeter of the cavity.
- When tempered or Pyrex™ type glass is used for the separating plate, visibility inside the cavity is greatly improved, although in this case thermal insulation is reduced. In order to improve thermal insulation, the glass separating plate may have an interspace in which vacuum is created. Visibility is further improved by using low voltage (24V) or high (220V) voltage, low (10-50W) wattage, halogen illumination devices in both sub-cavities. These can be positioned on any of the cavity walls although the preferred position is either at the rear of the cavity or on the side walls.
- High temperature silicone resin plastic may also be used to realise all or part of the separator; in this particular case the plastic is suitable up to 500°C continuous use i.e. also for pyrolitic ovens.
- The present invention will be disclosed in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate preferred embodiments of the invention by way of example and in which:
-
Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of a built-in oven according to a first embodiment that does not form part of the invention, in which the door oven, the insulating panels and the separating plate have been removed for sake of clarity, -
Figure 2 is a detailed view of a portion of the back side of the oven offigure 1 , in which the back wall has been removed, -
Figure 3 is a side view of a heating element according to the invention, -
Figure 4 is a cross-section of an oven provided with the heating element offigure 3 , and -
Figure 5 is a schematic front view of the oven showing the embodiment of the invention according tofigures 3-4 . - With reference to the drawings, an
oven 10 comprises acavity 12 having fourheating elements 14, two for each side 12a of the oven cavity, which are housed in flat metal housings or "pockets" 16. Twoflat housings 16 are located on the external face K of thecavity 12 at each side 12a of the cavity and connected electrically through the back plate of the oven. Theflat housings 16 are vertically separated in order to provide a thermal insulation between them. In the oven cavity 12 a shelf-shaped separatingplate 18 can be inserted (figures 4-5 ) that splits thecavity 12 in twosub-cavities 12b and 12c. The separatingplate 18 has thermal insulating properties and is provided with a silicone seal (not shown) in the front portion thereof in order to seal the front wall of the cavity i.e. the oven door. - According to a first embodiment that does not form part of the invention (
figures 1,2 ,5 ), eachflat housing 16 contains atubular heating element 13 which faces directly the external face K of the side wall of the oven cavity. Eachheating element 13 has electrical connections 13a linked to the electrical circuit of theoven 10. - According to a further embodiment which is the invention (
figures 3-4 ) each heating element is a twinradiant heating element 40 comprising a metalflat housing 42 containing two dickey bow shapedheating elements 44 each having electrical connections 44a on the rear wall of the oven. Eachtwin radiant element 40 is attached to the centre of the oven side wall, which can be provided with alongitudinal slot 46 in order to improve the heat transfer to the separatingplate 18. A metallic or a ceramic glass plate 42a can close the face of thehousing 42 towards the external face K of the side wall. In the second case (not shown), theslot 46 is an opening having the same dimension of the ceramic glass plate. - According to a further embodiment that does not form part of the invention, the oven comprises four radiant heating elements in the form of quartz lamps 50, two for each side of the
oven cavity 12. These are housed in suitable metal reflectors 52 that are attached to the external face K of the cavity wall and covered either by a metal or ceramic glass 54. - In the standard mode of operation the oven can be used as a standard oven (static and/or lower element) or together with the four side heating elements. In this latter case performance (e.g. cooking results) is comparable or better than the standard radial heater configuration (circular heater around fan).
- In the 'flexible cavity' mode the separating
plate 18 is used to split the oven cavity thus providing three further modes of operation: - a first mode in which the
upper sub-cavity 12b only is used. In this case the heaters used are the two upper side wall heaters plus the grill element. The grill element may also be used separately such as for grilling or browning. In such mode the sub-cavity temperature is set and controlled by the same control used for the standard mode. The first cavity mode is particularly suited for meat, poultry, grilling etc. - a second mode in which the lower sub-cavity 12c only is used. In this case the heaters used are the two lower side wall radiant heaters plus the lower heating element. The lower heating element may also be used separately such as for warming or crisping. In the second mode the lower sub-cavity temperature is set and controlled by a sensor positioned in the lower sub-cavity. The second cavity mode is particularly suited for pasta, cakes, baking, pizza etc.
- a third mode in which the
sub-cavities 12b and 12c can be set at 2 different temperatures up to a maximum temperature difference of 100°C e.g. 250°C for the upper sub-cavity and 150°C for the lower sub-cavity. - In all of the above three mentioned modes the separating
plate 18 is provided so as to isolate and insulate the two sub-cavities. This is done by carefully sizing the separator to match the cavity interior profile (incl. oven door) and using a silicone rubber seal fitted on the front of the separator. When in use it sits on a suitable ledge attached to the cavity wall. - When the separating
plate 18 is installed the temperature control and sensor of the lower sub-cavity is enabled e.g. through a micro-switch fitted at the rear of the oven cavity. - In all the disclosed embodiments the installed power for each side wall heater is preferably between 250W to 1500 Watts. Where the heater on the rear wall is used (figure 8), its power is preferably 500 Watts or higher.
