Abstract: A food display cabinet having a plurality of food display zones, wherein each food display zone including a heat exchange element and is configurable to be held at the same or different temperatures, the food display cabinet having a control logic to control the temperature of each of the food display zones, the control logic configured to: receive an indicia of an item to be placed in a first food display zone, and the time in which the item is placed in the zone; identify a temperature and power profile associated with the item; vary the temperature of the first food display zone, using the heat exchange element, so that the first food display zone is at the identified temperature at the time the item is placed in the first food display zone.

Abstract: A heated food storage and display cabinet including a flow inducer and heater arranged in an upper region thereof, the flow inducer being operable to draw air from an upper portion of the cabinet, to direct the air over the heater, and subsequently urge the heated air down the rear wall of the cabinet and across the floor of the cabinet towards the open front of the cabinet. The heated air is subsequently directed upwardly and rearwardly across the open front of the cabinet by an airflow direction member of the cabinet so as to provide a heated air curtain across the open front of the cabinet, and a portion of the heated air is also passed into the cabinet as the heated air moves down the rear wall and across the floor so as to pass over and around packs of food stored therein.

Abstract: A heated food storage and display cabinet comprises an open fronted enclosed chamber within which packs of food can be stored, the cabinet including flow inducing means and heater means arranged in an upper region thereof, the flow inducing means being operable to draw air from an upper portion of the enclosed chamber, direct the air over the heater means to heat the air and subsequently urge the heated air down the rear wall of the chamber and across the floor of the chamber towards the open front of the chamber, said heated air being subsequently directed upwardly and rearwardly across the open front of the chamber by an airflow direction member of the chamber to provide a heated air curtain across the open front of the chamber, wherein a portion of the heated air passes into the chamber as said heated air moves down the rear wall and across the floor so as to pass over and around packs of food stored therein.

Abstract: A heated food storage and display cabinet (10) comprises an open fronted enclosed chamber (30) within which packs of food can be stored, the cabinet (10) including flow inducing means (52) and heater means (54) arranged in an upper region thereof, the flow inducing means being operable to draw air from an upper portion of the enclosed chamber (30), direct the air over the heater means (54) to heat the air and subsequently urge the heated air down the rear wall (18) of the chamber (30) and across the floor (22) of the chamber (30) towards the open front of the chamber (30), said heated air being subsequently directed upwardly and rearwardly across the open front of the chamber (30) by an airflow direction member (78) of the chamber (30) to provide a heated air curtain (70) across the open front of the chamber, wherein a portion of the heated air (64,68) passes into the chamber (30) as said heated air moves down the rear wall (18) and across the floor (22) so as to pass over and around packs of food stored ther
