  • Patent number: 11723372
    Abstract: A food-preparation apparatus for forming and baking a food product (5) from a dough portion (2) in a capsule (12) includes a housing (3) having a capsule-handling device (4) for opening and/or emptying the capsule (12), an upper plate (14), and a lower plate (11), arranged in the housing (3). The lower plate can be adjusted in a guide device between a receiving position (A) for receiving the dough portion (2) from the capsule (12), a position of interaction (W) for interacting with the upper plate (14) for baking and/or forming the dough portion, and an emptying position (E) wherein the lower plate (11) is inclined relative to a base surface (46) of the food-preparation apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20210282407
    Abstract: The invention relates to a food-preparation apparatus, in particular baking apparatus, for forming and baking a food product (5), preferably a flat bread from a dough portion (2) accommodated in a capsule (12), having a housing (3), having a capsule-handling device (4) for opening and/or emptying the capsule (12), and having an upper plate (14), and a lower plate (11), arranged in the housing (3), it being possible for the lower plate to be adjusted in a guide device between a receiving position (A) for receiving the dough portion (2) from the capsule (12), a position of interaction (W) for interacting with the upper plate (14) for baking and/or forming, in particular pressing, the dough portion, and an emptying position (E), in which the lower plate (11) is inclined relative to a base surface (46) of the food-preparation apparatus (1), wherein the guide device has a diverter (20) with a diverter element (21), which can be switched between at least two switching positions and is intended for predetermining an

  • Patent number: 11000043
    Abstract: A domestic baking device for baking a food product, in particular a flat bread, from a dough portion initially held in a portion capsule (2), the domestic baking device comprising a baking apparatus for baking the dough portion and a capsule-emptying apparatus (7) for removing the dough portion from a portion capsule (2), the capsule-emptying apparatus (7) having at least one force application element, which can be moved along a movement path, for applying force to, in particular deforming and/or moving, the portion capsule (2), which force application element can be driven by means of an electric motor, characterized in that the capsule-emptying apparatus (7) is assigned monitoring means for monitoring the portion capsule emptying operation, the monitoring means comprising comparing means, which are designed to monitor the curve of an electrical motor signal, in particular a current or voltage signal, over the movement path of the force application element for the reaching or exceeding of a reference signal

  • Publication number: 20200163346
    Abstract: A domestic baking device for baking a food product, in particular a flat bread, made of a dough portion which is first received in a portion capsule. The baking device includes a baking and pressing device (2) for baking and pressing the dough portion (3, 3?) between a first and a second baking plate (5). At least the first baking plate (4) can be driven relative to the second baking plate (5) along a preferably linear displacement path (s) towards the second baking plate (5) by means of adjusting means (7) which include an electric motor in order to flatten the dough portion (3, 3?) by pressing same between the baking plates (4, 5).
