  • Patent number: 8100656
    Abstract: A fan apparatus for a cooking device is provided having a fan impeller that is held on a drive shaft of a rotary drive by its hub and is pressed against a stop of the drive shaft in an axial direction by a screw nut. In order to ensure that the fan impeller is securely held on the drive shaft, the screw nut exerts a pressing force on the fan impeller in a radial direction.

  • Patent number: 7069924
    Abstract: A raised-level built-in cooking appliance, such as a wall-mounted oven, has a housing with a cooking chamber that is downwardly open. A floor chamber opening is selectively closed by a lowerable trapdoor. A door guide enables the bottom door to be lowered along a lifting path. The trapdoor guide has a first guide element on the housing side and a second guide element on the trapdoor side. In addition, at least one intermediate element is provided so that the trapdoor may be lowered over as long a lifting path as possible. The intermediate element connects the first guide element to the second guide element and extends the lifting path of the trapdoor.

  • Publication number: 20050241495
    Abstract: A baking oven including a holding part which is horizontally guided inside a baking chamber and can receive and hold a baking rack. The baking rack can be displaced between a baking position inside the baking chamber and a removed position at least partially in front of and outside of the baking chamber. The holding part includes a pair of retaining elements that are displaceably guided on opposite side walls of the cooking chamber, while being located at a distance from the upper and lower heating elements in the cooking chamber so as not to interfere with the heating elements.

  • Publication number: 20040099259
    Abstract: Wall-mounted cookers comprising a housing (38) with a hood and an oven (32) are known. The base of the hood has an opening, which can be closed by a base door (2) that can be lowered. A retaining part (19) of a device that retains a cooking product carrier is mounted on the upper side of the base door (2) facing the oven (32). According to the invention, to facilitate the cleaning of the retaining part (19), the latter (19) is detachably connected to the base door (2).

  • Patent number: 6437293
    Abstract: A baking oven defines a cooking space, in which a tubular, multiply bent radiant heating element is secured in a horizontally extending heating element plane. A temperature sensor for regulating the temperature of the cooking space is disposed substantially in the heating element plane and has a sensor tube that is disposed in close proximity to the radiant heating element for thermal coupling to the heating element. A temperature sensor with flexible leads is secured in the sensor tube for obtaining good coupling of the temperature sensor to the radiant heating element. The sensor tube has at least one curved portion, whereby the sensor tube curves around portions of the heating element. The heating element plane defines a measuring area lying in the heating element plane, and the temperature sensor is disposed approximately at a center of gravity of the measuring area and is substantially surrounded by the heating element.

  • Patent number: 6318582
    Abstract: A slide-in unit for a baking oven with enameled guideways in oven muffle sidewall regions includes a tray with two opposite lateral supporting regions each respectively with a curled lateral edge region having at least one notch and a sliding clip clampingly secured in the edge region of the supporting regions, the clip protruding from the at least one notch and used as a sliding support for the tray. The slide-in unit can be, for example, a baking sheet. The invention also includes an improved support for a slide-in unit having two opposite lateral supporting regions each respectively with a downwardly curled lateral edge region having at least one notch for a baking oven with enameled guideways in the oven muffle sidewall regions. The improvement includes a sliding clip clampingly secured in an edge region of supporting regions of a slide-in unit, the clip protruding from notches of the edge region as a sliding support for the slide-in unit.

  • Patent number: 6080966
    Abstract: An oven muffle has mutually spaced apart inner and outer insulating walls. An insulation layer composed of particulate material is disposed in an interstice between the inner and the outer insulating walls. At least one of the insulating walls is pretensioned toward the respective other insulating wall in order to exert a permanent pressure on the insulation layer.
