  • Patent number: 12144461
    Abstract: An improved automated oven appliance for baking or broiling food in a cooking chamber is disclosed. The appliance includes two heating elements, one or more food baskets, a baking pan, a temperature sensor, a cooking chamber, a user interface panel, a micro controller and two motors located within a metal cabinet. Food cooking methods stored in memory in a micro controller determines cooking chamber temperature and cooking intervals, as well as movement of one of the food baskets in the cooking chamber. Intervals of rotary motion of a food basket in the cooking chamber as part of a cooking method and ultimate shut down of the appliance after food is cooked is controlled by the memory of the micro controller.

  • Publication number: 20200060470
    Abstract: An automated oven appliance for baking or broiling food in a cooking chamber is provided. The appliance comprises primarily of: two heating elements, one or more food baskets, baking pan, temperature sensor, cooking chamber, user interface panel, micro controller and two motors in a metal cabinet. Control algorithm stored in the micro controller determines cooking chamber temperature and temperature interval, as well as linear motion of food basket from and to the baking pan. Intervals of rotary motion of food basket in cooking chamber as part of the cooking process and ultimately shutting down of the appliance when food is cooked is also controlled by the micro controller algorithm.

  • Publication number: 20080216056
    Abstract: A fully integrated Information Technology Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) request management system comprising of a centralized database and a web interface which includes but not limited to the following modules: Change Request, Migration Request, Work Flow Engine, Project, Collaboration, Code Movement, Document Tracking, Code Execution, Status Notification and Database Schema Snapshot as well as various reporting capabilities are disclosed. The SDLC request management system is installed on a server and accessed by a plurality of users over a communication network. A request to work on a piece of software is entered by a user in the change request module. Based on the predefined setting of a default workflow, the workflow engine will route the request to the appropriate personnel. Whether or not it is determined that the request requires a change in a piece of software, a notification will be made on the system and, the collaboration module will send out emails to all involved in this request.
