Abstract: A drying system, as provided herein, may include a cabinet, an air outlet grate, an air inlet grate, a door, a vapor compression assembly, and an ultraviolet light source or tank capacitance circuit. The cabinet may define a static chamber along the airflow path for the receipt of articles therein. The air outlet grate may be upstream from the static chamber along the airflow path to direct air thereto. The air inlet grate may be downstream from the static chamber along the airflow path to direct air therefrom. The door may be attached to the cabinet to selectively restrict access to the static chamber. The vapor compression assembly may be attached to the cabinet and defining a refrigerant flow path spaced apart from the static chamber. The vapor compression assembly may include a compressor, an evaporator, and a condenser.

Abstract: A cooking appliance, as provided herein, may include a cabinet, an induction heating coil, an electric heat-radiation element, and a vertical lift or secondary heating element. The cabinet may define a cooking chamber. The induction heating coil may be mounted within the cabinet below the cooking chamber to direct a magnetic field thereto. The electric heat-radiation element may be mounted within the cabinet above the induction heating coil. The vertical lift may support the electric heat-radiation element within the cooking chamber to adjust a vertical height of the electric heat-radiation element relative to the induction heating coil. The secondary electric heating element may be mounted within the cabinet below the cooking chamber and horizontally spaced apart from the induction heating coil to receive a steam pot.
