Publication number: 20250035316Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a housing having a heating cavity defined therein, wherein a heat source is in thermal communication with the heating cavity. A cooling channel is disposed proximate a sidewall of the housing. A blower selectively operates to move at least cooling air through the cooling channel and to an air outlet. A vent aperture extends through the sidewall between the heating cavity and a ventilation channel. The ventilation channel includes a narrowed portion proximate the vent aperture, wherein during operation of the blower, the narrowed portion defines a low static pressure region of the ventilation channel that draws cavity air from the heating cavity and directs the cavity air into the ventilation channel to be combined with the cooling air.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 11, 2024Publication date: January 30, 2025Applicant: WHIRLPOOL CORPORATIONInventors: Zachary J. Bruin-Slot, Massimiliano Daniele, Robert Scott Donarski, Emilio Fagundes, Gregory Tadeu Gargioni, Vando Sestrem, Yasmim Silvano

Patent number: 11137145Abstract: A cooking appliance includes a housing having a sidewall and a front panel, wherein a heating cavity is defined within the housing. An operable door panel is rotationally coupled proximate the front panel and operable to provide selective access to the heating cavity via an aperture defined within the front panel. A heat source is in thermal communication with the heating cavity and the front panel. A blower is disposed within an interstitial space at least partially defined by an outer surface of the housing. A ventilation tower is attached to the sidewall and positioned proximate the front panel. Selective operation of the blower draws ventilation air from an external region proximate the front panel and into the interstitial space via the ventilation tower.Type: GrantFiled: March 3, 2020Date of Patent: October 5, 2021Assignee: Whirlpool CorporationInventors: Zachary J.
