Abstract: An oven (1000) having a body (1002) that includes a base, a ceiling, and side walls extending between the base and the ceiling, the side walls at least partly surrounding a cooking cavity (1030), the oven (1000) including: an impeller assembly (1060) mounted to a first side wall of the oven body, the impeller assembly (1060) including: an impeller (1062) that is rotatable to direct air flow within the cooking cavity (1030); a plurality of air guides (2006) that at least partially surround the impeller (1062), the air guides (2006) each defining a channel that extends generally transversely from a central axis of the impeller (1062); and a pair of heating elements (2010) located on either side of the impeller (1062), whereby air that is directed from the impeller (1062) travels transversely along the channels of the air guides (2006), across the heating elements (2010), and into the cooking cavity (1030).

Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a body having an interior to receive product to be cooked, the body having an opening via which the product can be moved relative to the interior; a pilot mounted within the body; and a door attached to the body to close the opening. The door includes a first latch mounted to the door and a second latch mounted to the door and independently reciprocable relative to the first latch between a first position and a second position, wherein the second latch is urged to move towards the second position such that, as the door is moved to close the opening, the second latch is received within the body and is deflected towards the first position by the pilot until a portion of the second latch clears the pilot and is urged to move towards the second position to come to rest behind the pilot.

Abstract: An oven (10) having a body (15) that includes a base (20), a ceiling (25), and a wall (30) extending between the base (20) and the ceiling (25), the wall (30) at least partly surrounding a cooking cavity (35), the base (20) including a base cavity (50) and an opening (55) that extends between the base cavity (50) and the cooking cavity (35); the oven (10) further including a removable container (65) having a floor (81) and sidewalls (82) that define a chamber (85) to hold fluids therein, the base cavity (50) adapted to receive the removable container (65), the removable container (65) being movable relative to the base cavity (50) between a storage position in which the removable container (65) is retained in the base cavity (50); and an open position in which the removable container (65) is at least partially exposed relative to the base cavity (50), the oven (10) further including an interface assembly (150) providing a connection between a fluid outlet (97) of the removable container (65) and the cooking c

Abstract: A cooking appliance (100) including: a hollow body (102) having an interior (110) to receive a product to be cooked, the body (102) having an opening (112) via which product to be cooked can be moved relative to the interior (110); a door (114) attached to the body (102) and movable relative thereto between a closed position at which the door (114) closes the opening, and a maximum open position at which the door (114) is spaced from the open position by a maximum predetermined distance; and a latch mechanism (122) operatively associated with the body (102) and the door (114) to at least aid in retaining the door (114) in at least one intermediate position at which the door (114) is spaced from the closed position and the maximum open position, the mechanism (122) including an abutment member (142) fixed to the body (102), and a position defining member (124) attached to the door (114) and the body (102), the position defining member (124) having a plurality of position defining portions including a first por

Abstract: There is disclosed a cooking appliance (2010) including: a body (2014) providing a floor (2016), a ceiling (2018) and an intermediate wall (2020) locating between the floor (2016) and ceiling (2018), the floor (2016), ceiling (2018), and wall (2020) at least partly surrounding a cooking cavity (2022), the body (2014) having an opening (2024) via which product to be cooked can be moved relative to the cavity (2022); at least one upper heating element (2030) located in an upper portion (2032) of the cavity (2022) to deliver radiant energy to cook the product; and at least one shield (2034) positioned relative to the element (2030) to shield a portion of the product from the radiant energy.
