  • Patent number: 5441036
    Abstract: A cool multi-section oven door for use in an oven is disclosed herein. The present invention provides a plurality of pieces of glass, preferably four, each in parallel spaced relation to each other. The spaces between the pieces of glass provide channels for air flow. To provide forced air flow, a fan is positioned under the cooktop area and the air passes through the air gaps between the individual pieces of glass, thus cooling the oven door by allowing the heat to exit at the top of the door. Additionally, heat radiating fins are located on the hinges of the oven door extend into the air flow to provide further cooling.
