Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Haushaltsgerät (1) zum Zubereiten von Lebensmitteln, mit einem Gehäuse (2), welches ein erstes Außenteil (3, 10) aufweist, an welchem eine Bedienvorrichtung (4) zum Einstellen von Betriebsbedingungen des Haushaltsgeräts (1) ausgebildet ist, und mit zumindest einem zum ersten Außenteil (3, 10) separaten zweiten Außenteil (11, 13, 14), welches balkenartig ausgebildet ist und frontseitig am Haushaltsgerät (1) angeordnet ist, wobei das zweite Außenteil (11, 13, 14) zumindest bereichsweise für Licht im für den Menschen sichtbaren Spektralbereich durchlässig ausgebildet ist und zur optischen Informationsanzeige durch das zweite Außenteil (11, 13, 14) hinterleuchtbar ist.
Abstract:
A kitchen appliance (10) is disclosed comprising a cooking compartment (20) including a sensor arrangement (15) comprising at least one of a humidity sensor and a colorimeter arranged to determine a colour of a food product in the cooking compartment, as well as a lid (30) for sealing the cooking compartment. The kitchen appliance (10) further comprises a controller (17) responsive to the sensor arrangement, wherein the controller is adapted to generate a control signal for triggering an opening of the cooking compartment in response to a sensor signal from the sensor arrangement.
Abstract:
A cooking oven comprising a housing, a cavity, an oven door, an air plenum, an infrared heating element, and a thermal insulating layer placed between the infrared heating element and the air plenum is disclosed. The infrared hearing element comprises a wire-like heating element shaped in a serpentine-pattern to form a plurality of fingers. The thermal insulating layer comprises a plurality of air channels interconnecting the air plenum and the cavity, and one or more temperature decoupling chambers for thermally insulating the air plenum from the infrared heating element. The air channels are positioned interleavingly between the plurality of fingers so that airstreams coming from the air plenum through each of the air channels into the cavity do not substantially contact and convectively cool the infrared heating element. The temperature decoupling chambers may use air as a thermal insulator.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an oven door (10) for closing an oven cavity (2) comprising a door glass (11) being at least partially transparent for enabling a user to look into the oven cavity, wherein the door glass (11) comprises at least a first and a second glass pane (11.1, 11.2), the first glass pane (11.1) constituting the outer glass pane and said glass panes being arranged at a distance from one another, wherein an electronic transparent display (12) is arranged in the space between the first glass pane (11.1) and the second glass pane (11.2) in order to provide information to a user in front of the oven door (10) and wherein the oven door comprises heat isolation means for protecting said electronic transparent display (12) against heat radiated by the oven cavity (2).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a domestic appliance, in particular a cooking oven (10), with a camera (18). The domestic appliance (10) comprises a treatment chamber (12) and a door (14) for opening and closing the treatment chamber (12). The door (14) includes a window or a transparent part. The door (14) includes a door handle (16) arranged at an outer side of said door (14). The camera (18) is arranged inside the door handle (16), wherein the lens coverage (20) of the camera (18) extends from said camera (18) through the window or transparent portion of the door (14) into the interior of the treatment chamber (12). Picture signals generated by the camera (18) are represented or representable by a picture displaying device, wherein said picture displaying device is a part of the control unit of the domestic appliance (10) and/or a part of an external device connected or connectable to said domestic appliance (10).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an oven (1) comprising an inner case (2) forming a chamber (3), an outer case (4) enclosing the inner case (2) and a ventilation unit disposed in an intermediate-region between the inner case (2) and the outer case (4) for ventilating the chamber (3) by forced convection, wherein the chamber (3) and the intermediate-region (8) are not hermetically sealed from each other, wherein the outer case (4) has an upper cover (9) comprising a horizontal section (9a) and a vertical section (9b) which extends upwards away from the horizontal section (9a) and faces through a gap (10) the inner surface of the uppermost vertical section (5a) of the front cover (5) and has one or more than one ventilation aperture (11), wherein a sub-region (8a) of the intermediate-region (8), which is enclosed by said vertical section (9b) of the upper cover (9) and said uppermost vertical section (5a) of the front cover (5) communicates with the rest of the intermediate-region (8) and defines a flow path for ventilating the entire intermediate region (8) via the ventilation aperture (11) by natural convection.
Abstract:
A precision temperature controlled hot plate heater and water pump circulator appliance for cooking food in water is disclosed. The cooker can include an upper portion including a controller, a display device and an input device coupled to the controller. The cooker can also include a middle portion connected to the upper portion. The middle portion can house a motor coupled to the controller and a fluid agitation device coupled to the motor. The middle portion can be configured for at least partial immersion in a fluid. The cooker can also include a lower portion that can be connected to the upper portion. The lower portion can house a heating element and controller that can be operated independently as a hot plate, or can be coupled to the upper portion's controller. This configuration can enable precision temperature control.
