  • Patent number: 11199331
    Abstract: An oven including a chamber defining an oven cavity with an open front. A rack assembly is slidable between a retracted position and an extended position relative to the chamber. A door is provided for closing the open front. A hinge assembly connects the door to the rack assembly. The hinge assembly allows the door to slide between a first position and a second position with respect to the rack assembly. The hinge assembly includes a lock assembly for locking the rack assembly in the extended position. The lock assembly is moveable between a locked position and an unlocked position. The lock assembly is in the unlocked position when the door is in the first position thereby allowing the rack assembly to freely moved, and the lock assembly is in the locked position when the door is in the second position thereby securing the rack assembly in the extended position.
