  • Patent number: 7004159
    Abstract: A cooking oven having a cooking chamber with a rear entry portion and a forward exit portion. There is a conveying platform extending along the length of the cooking chamber, and this platform comprises stationary elongate platform members and moveable platform members, with the two groups of platform members being spaced in an alternating relationship next to each other. The moveable platform members move together in a cycle upwardly, through a forward increment of travel, downwardly, and rearwardly to its original position and upwardly, thus conveying food products. There is a heating chamber below the platform and also infrared heaters above the platform, which are arranged to apply heat to food product on the platform with different patterns of intensity.
