Publication number: 20230055637Abstract: A cooking appliance, such as a toaster or oven, has a lifting arm including ribs that form a support surface for a food product in a cooking cavity of the appliance. Each rib can include an opening configured to permit infrared radiation from a heating assembly to pass through the rib to the food product supported by the lifting arm and/or to reduce a thermal mass and capacitance of the lifting arm. The heating assembly can include a support and/or heating element with a curved shape having a concave side facing a cooking cavity. The support and/or heating element can have a planar shape when unstressed and a curved shape when stressed. The heating element may be coupled to the support so as to be slidably movable relative to the support, e.g., so the heating element can slide relative to the support.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2022Publication date: February 23, 2023Applicant: Revolution Cooking, LLCInventors: Philip C. Carbone, Peter J. Loftus, Ryan O'Donnell, Cody O'Sullivan, James Poon, Aurelio Reyes, Richard Simmers

Patent number: 11517147Abstract: A heating assembly for a cooking appliance, such as a toaster or oven, has a support and/or heating element with a curved shape having a concave side facing a cooking cavity. The support and/or heating element may be flexible, e.g., having a planar shape when unstressed and a curved shape when stressed. The support and/or heating element may define a sheet, e.g., having a length and width. The heating element may have openings in the sheet. The heating element may be coupled to the support so as to be slidable movable relative to the support, e.g., so the heating element can slide relative to the support when the support and heating element are bent into a curved shape.Type: GrantFiled: February 13, 2020Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: Revolution Cooking, LLCInventors: Philip C. Carbone, Peter J. Loftus, Ryan O'Donnell, Cody O'Sullivan, James Poon, Aurelio Reyes, Richard Simmers

Patent number: 11122934Abstract: A heating element for a cooking appliance includes terminals that act as electrically conductive contact points. One or more buses are arranged between the terminals, and connect one or more heating element segments in a zig-zag configuration. The heating element segments are connected in series and are arranged parallel with one another. Each heating element segment includes a plurality of cutouts linked together and having an elliptical shape. The terminals, heating element segments, and buses are a continuous single sheet of conductive material. A method of making the heating element includes forming a pattern into the sheet of conductive material by etching the pattern into the conductive sheet using photolithography.Type: GrantFiled: October 21, 2020Date of Patent: September 21, 2021Assignee: Revolution Cooking, LLCInventors: Benjamin F.
