Definitions
- the present invention relates to a household oven comprising a housing having a vertical front face and containing a heating cavity open on the front face and intended to be closed by a door pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis located in the housing, said cavity being equipped with a tray supporting a food to be heated.
- It relates more particularly to a household oven whose food carrier plate is movable in horizontal translation under the action of at least one movement transmission mechanism controlled by the door, disposed in the housing and adapted, on the one hand, to transform the pivoting movement of the door into a translational movement of the food carrier plate, and on the other hand, to ensure a displacement of the food carrier plate such that it comes to occupy either an engagement position in which it is completely contained in the cavity when the door is closed, that is to say a release position in which it projects transversely from the cavity when the door is open.
- An oven of this type is described in US-A-2,069,706.
- the transmission mechanism adapted to ensure the horizontal displacement of the food-carrying tray in response to the pivoting of the door generally consists of a complex set of rods hinged to each other, which makes it a mechanism complicated transmission.
- the object of the invention is in particular to remedy this drawback by producing an oven such that the mechanism for transmitting movement between the door and the food-carrying tray is simple, economical and reliable.
- the transmission mechanism comprises several successive stages of transmission associated with each other and each consisting of a toothed belt mounted to mesh on two rotary toothed wheels, respectively of the driving type and of the driven type, which are respectively wedged on two horizontal shafts parallel to each other, the shaft of the driving gear wheel of the first stage being constituted by the pivot axis of the door and the shaft of the driving gear wheel of the last stage having an end which opens transversely into the cavity and which carries a rotary toothed wheel known as a driving gear meshing with a toothing formed on a lower edge of the food-carrying tray and extending over the entire length thereof.
- the second stage driving gear being wedged on the same shaft as the first stage driving gear.
- the microwave oven illustrated in FIG. 1 comprises a housing 1, for example in the form of a straight parallelepiped, having a vertical front face 2, part of which is slightly recessed and has a front opening 3 leading to an internal heating cavity 4, for example of octagonal shape, in which is arranged transversely a rectangular plate 5 which supports a frozen food preparation P visible in FIGS. 3 and 4, and which is movable in horizontal translation under the action of the door as will be seen further.
- a housing 1 for example in the form of a straight parallelepiped, having a vertical front face 2, part of which is slightly recessed and has a front opening 3 leading to an internal heating cavity 4, for example of octagonal shape, in which is arranged transversely a rectangular plate 5 which supports a frozen food preparation P visible in FIGS. 3 and 4, and which is movable in horizontal translation under the action of the door as will be seen further.
- the cavity 4 opens at least one arrival of microwave radiation (not shown) connected to a microwave transmitter; optionally, at least one arrival of infrared rays (not shown) also opens into the cavity 4, which arrival being connected to an infrared transmitter.
- the front opening 3 of the housing 1 is closed, during operation of the oven, by a door 6 (shown partially in broken lines in Figure 1) which is pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis 8 located in the lower part of the housing 1 and which is dimensioned so as to fit into the recessed part of the front face 2 so to reconstruct, with the latter, a perfectly flat facade.
- a door 6 shown partially in broken lines in Figure 1 which is pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis 8 located in the lower part of the housing 1 and which is dimensioned so as to fit into the recessed part of the front face 2 so to reconstruct, with the latter, a perfectly flat facade.
- the door 6 includes protective means (not shown) which, when the door is closed and the oven in operation, provide a seal against microwaves and, possibly, infrared.
- the plate 5 carrying the food preparation is made of a material transparent to microwaves such as, for example, a ceramic coated with a glass-based enamel which is easy to maintain.
- the oven has two identical movement transmission mechanisms, each designated by the general reference 10, which are fully and laterally integrated in the housing 1, in the immediate vicinity of the front face 2 of this last, extending substantially vertically and symmetrically with respect to a median plane Q passing through the cavity 4, and which are each interposed between the axis 8 of the door 6 and one of the two lower edges 5a , 5b of the tray 5 carrying the food preparation.
- Each of these two transmission mechanisms 10 is adapted, on the one hand, to transform the pivoting movement of the door 6 into a movement of horizontal translation of the plate 5 carrying the food preparation, and on the other hand, to ensure a displacement of said plate 5 such that it comes to occupy either an engagement position in which it is entirely contained in the cavity 4 when the door 6 is closed (see FIG. 3), that is to say a release position in which it projects transversely from the cavity 4 when the door 6 is opened, for example at 90 Ā° (see FIG. 4).
- the transmission mechanism 10 comprises several successive stages of transmission, in this case two stages, the first of which comprises a planed toothed belt 12 which is mounted in engagement with both a large lower toothed wheel 13, of the driving type, wedged on a horizontal shaft 14 which is mounted on the axis 8 of the door 6, at one end thereof, and which is engaged in a bore 16 formed in a plate vertical forming a bearing 17 integral with the housing, and on a small upper toothed wheel 19, of the driven type, wedged on one end of a horizontal shaft 20 parallel to the shaft 14 and engaged in a bore 21 formed in the plate 17.
- the second transmission stage also comprises a notched planar belt 23, considerably longer than the belt 12, which extends through an opening 24 formed in the plate 17 and which is mounted in engagement on both a large lower toothed wheel 26, of the driving type, wedged on the shaft 20 and placed on the same side as the toothed wheel 19 relative to the plate 17, and on a small upper toothed wheel 28, of the driven type, placed on the side opposite to the toothed wheel 26 relative to said plate 17 and wedged on a horizontal shaft 29, in the vicinity of one end thereof, which is engaged in a bore 31 formed in the plate 17.
- This shaft 29 opens out transversely at its other end 33 in the cavity 4, at a determined level thereof, and is enclosed in a cylindrical sealing sleeve 34 made of a microwave insulating material such as, for example, a ceramic.
- the through end 33 of the shaft 29 carries a large drive toothed wheel 35, of the driving type, cooperating by meshing with a toothing 36 forming a rack which is produced over the entire length of the lower edge 5a of the plate 5 carrying the food preparation.
- the plate 17, Figure 2 has at its base two horizontal flat wings 38,39 which are fixed, for example by welding, on the bottom 41 of the housing 1 ( Figure 1), and on its front edge, a vertical flat wing 42 which is fixedly applied, for example by welding, to the internal part of the front face 2 of the housing 1 (FIGS. 3 and 4).
- the toothed wheel 13 has a lateral flange 44 having a thin flat portion forming a heel 45, wedged angularly on the shaft 14 and adapted to come into abutment against the vertical wing 42 of the plate 17 at the end opening door 6, so as to keep door 6 in the open position according to the chosen opening angle, in this case 90 Ā°.
- the vertical wing 42 of the plate 17 advantageously constitutes an internal shielding of the front face 2 of the housing with respect to the abutment heel 45 when the door 6 pivots from its closed position to its open position.
- control shaft 14 of the toothed wheel 13 has a flat 47 on which is mounted the side face 6a of the door 6 via a corresponding bore 48 formed therein.
- This flat 47 guarantees better pivoting of the door 6 and provides the latter with greater rigidity, which is necessary when the oven is used almost permanently, such as in the field of fast food.
- the stroke of the plate 5 carrying the food preparation is determined as a function of the angular displacement of the door 6 and of the gear ratio between the driving gear wheels (13,26,35) and driven (19,28) of the transmission mechanism 10.
- the stroke of the plate carrying the food preparation is approximately 150 millimeters.
- the cavity 4 includes means for guiding the movable plate 5 carrying the food preparation.
- these guide means consist of fixed pins 50 mounted transversely in the cavity 4 and arranged in staggered rows along the upper and lower edges of the plate 5.
- the cavity 4 also includes coupling / uncoupling means (not shown) which, when the oven is not in operation, make it possible to make the plate 5 removable so as to facilitate its cleaning as well as that of the cavity.
- FIG. 3 shows the plate 5 carrying the food preparation P in the engagement position in which it is entirely contained in the cavity 4 when the door 6 is closed.
- the user After defrosting and reheating the food preparation P, the user opens the door 6, the pivot axis 8 of which rotates, counterclockwise, the toothed wheel 13 (FIG. 2), the rotational movement of which is transmitted to the toothed wheel 19 by means of the belt 12, as well as the toothed wheel 26 wedged on the same shaft 20 as the wheel 19.
- the toothed wheel 26 transmits its rotational movement to the toothed wheel 28 by means of the belt 23, as well as to the drive toothed wheel 35 wedged on the same shaft 29 as the wheel 28.
- the toothed wheel 35 drives in horizontal translation the plate 5 which projects from the cavity 4 to occupy, at the end of the 90 Ā° opening of the door 6, its release position shown in FIG. 4.
- the heel 45 of the flange 44 carried by the wheel toothed 13 abuts against the internal wing 42 applied against the front face 2 of the housing.

Abstract
Description
La prĆ©sente invention se rapporte Ć un four mĆ©nager comportant un boĆ®tier prĆ©sentant une face frontale verticale et renfermant une cavitĆ© de chauffage ouverte en face frontale et destinĆ©e Ć ĆŖtre fermĆ©e par une porte montĆ©e pivotante autour d'un axe horizontal situĆ© dans le boĆ®tier, ladite cavitĆ© Ć©tant Ć©quipĆ©e d'un plateau supportant un aliment Ć chauffer.The present invention relates to a household oven comprising a housing having a vertical front face and containing a heating cavity open on the front face and intended to be closed by a door pivotally mounted about a horizontal axis located in the housing, said cavity being equipped with a tray supporting a food to be heated.
Elle concerne plus particuliĆØrement un four mĆ©nager dont le plateau porte-aliment est mobile en translation horizontale sous l'action d'au moins un mĆ©canisme de transmission de mouvement commandĆ© par la porte, disposĆ© dans le boĆ®tier et adaptĆ©, d'une part, Ć transformer le mouvement de pivotement de la porte en un mouvement de translation du plateau porte-aliment, et d'autre part, Ć assurer un dĆ©placement du plateau porte-aliment tel que celui-ci vient occuper soit une position d'engagement dans laquelle il est entiĆØrement contenu dans la cavitĆ© lorsque la porte est fermĆ©e, soit une position de dĆ©gagement dans laquelle il fait saillie transversalement de la cavitĆ© lorsque la porte est ouverte. Un four de ce type est dĆ©crit dans le US-A-2 069 706.It relates more particularly to a household oven whose food carrier plate is movable in horizontal translation under the action of at least one movement transmission mechanism controlled by the door, disposed in the housing and adapted, on the one hand, to transform the pivoting movement of the door into a translational movement of the food carrier plate, and on the other hand, to ensure a displacement of the food carrier plate such that it comes to occupy either an engagement position in which it is completely contained in the cavity when the door is closed, that is to say a release position in which it projects transversely from the cavity when the door is open. An oven of this type is described in US-A-2,069,706.
Ce type de four mĆ©nager est particuliĆØrement avantageux dans la mesure oĆ¹ il permet de placer ou de retirer l'aliment en Ć©vitant tout risque de brĆ»lure pour l'utilisateur. Cependant, dans un tel four, le mĆ©canisme de transmission adaptĆ© Ć assurer le dĆ©placement horizontal du plateau porte-aliment en rĆ©ponse au pivotement de la porte est gĆ©nĆ©ralement constituĆ© par un ensemble complexe de tringles articulĆ©es les unes aux autres, ce qui en fait un mĆ©canisme de transmission compliquĆ©.This type of household oven is particularly advantageous insofar as it allows the food to be placed or removed while avoiding any risk of burns for the user. However, in such an oven, the transmission mechanism adapted to ensure the horizontal displacement of the food-carrying tray in response to the pivoting of the door generally consists of a complex set of rods hinged to each other, which makes it a mechanism complicated transmission.
L'invention a notamment pour but de remĆ©dier Ć cet inconvĆ©nient en rĆ©alisant un four tel que le mĆ©canisme de transmission de mouvement entre la porte et le plateau porte-aliment soit d'une rĆ©alisation simple, Ć©conomique et fiable.The object of the invention is in particular to remedy this drawback by producing an oven such that the mechanism for transmitting movement between the door and the food-carrying tray is simple, economical and reliable.
Selon l'invention, le mĆ©canisme de transmission comporte plusieurs Ć©tages successifs de transmission associĆ©s les uns aux autres et constituĆ©s chacun par une courroie crantĆ©e montĆ©e Ć engrĆØnement sur deux roues dentĆ©es rotatives, respectivement de type menant et de type menĆ©, qui sont calĆ©es respectivement sur deux arbres horizontaux parallĆØles entre eux, l'arbre de la roue dentĆ©e menante du premier Ć©tage Ć©tant constituĆ© par l'axe de pivotement de la porte et l'arbre de la roue dentĆ©e menĆ©e du dernier Ć©tage comportant une extrĆ©mitĆ© qui dĆ©bouche transversalement dans la cavitĆ© et qui porte une roue dentĆ©e rotative dite d'entraĆ®nement engrenant avec une denture formĆ©e sur un bord infĆ©rieur du plateau porte-aliment et s'Ć©tendant sur toute la longueur de celui-ci.According to the invention, the transmission mechanism comprises several successive stages of transmission associated with each other and each consisting of a toothed belt mounted to mesh on two rotary toothed wheels, respectively of the driving type and of the driven type, which are respectively wedged on two horizontal shafts parallel to each other, the shaft of the driving gear wheel of the first stage being constituted by the pivot axis of the door and the shaft of the driving gear wheel of the last stage having an end which opens transversely into the cavity and which carries a rotary toothed wheel known as a driving gear meshing with a toothing formed on a lower edge of the food-carrying tray and extending over the entire length thereof.
De prĆ©fĆ©rence, les Ć©tages de transmission sont au nombre de deux, la roue dentĆ©e menante du second Ć©tage Ć©tant calĆ©e sur le mĆŖme arbre que la roue dentĆ©e menĆ©e du premier Ć©tage.Preferably, there are two transmission stages, the second stage driving gear being wedged on the same shaft as the first stage driving gear.
D'autres caractĆ©ristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront d'ailleurs de la description qui va suivre, Ć titre d'exemple non limitatif, en rĆ©fĆ©rence aux dessins annexĆ©s dans lesquels :

Dans l'exemple de rĆ©alisation reprĆ©sentĆ© figure 1, le four comporte deux mĆ©canismes identiques de transmission de mouvement, dĆ©signĆ©s chacun par la rĆ©fĆ©rence gĆ©nĆ©rale 10, qui sont intĆ©grĆ©s totalement et latĆ©ralement dans le boĆ®tier 1, Ć proximitĆ© immĆ©diate de la face frontale 2 de ce dernier, en s'Ć©tendant sensiblement verticalement et d'une maniĆØre symĆ©trique par rapport Ć un plan mĆ©dian Q passant par la cavitĆ© 4, et qui sont interposĆ©s chacun entre l'axe 8 de la porte 6 et l'un des deux bords infĆ©rieurs 5a,5b du plateau 5 porteur de la prĆ©paration alimentaire.In the embodiment shown in Figure 1, the oven has two identical movement transmission mechanisms, each designated by the
Chacun de ces deux mĆ©canismes de transmission 10 est adaptĆ©, d'une part, Ć transformer le mouvement de pivotement de la porte 6 en un mouvement de translation horizontale du plateau 5 porteur de la prĆ©paration alimentaire, et d'autre part, Ć assurer un dĆ©placement dudit plateau 5 tel que celui-ci vient occuper soit une position d'engagement dans laquelle il est entiĆØrement contenu dans la cavitĆ© 4 lorsque la porte 6 est fermĆ©e (voir figure 3), soit une position de dĆ©gagement dans laquelle il fait saillie transversalement de la cavitĆ© 4 lorsque la porte 6 est ouverte, par exemple Ć 90Ā° (voir figure 4).Each of these two
Comme les deux mĆ©canismes de transmission 10 illustrĆ©s Ć la figure 1 sont identiques, on n'en dĆ©crira par la suite qu'un seul, par exemple celui de droite sur la figure 1, afin de simplifier la description.As the two
En regard des figures 1 et 2, le mĆ©canisme de transmission 10 conforme Ć l'invention comporte plusieurs Ć©tages successifs de transmission, en l'occurrence deux Ć©tages, dont le premier comprend une courroie plane crantĆ©e 12 qui est montĆ©e Ć engrĆØnement Ć la fois sur une grande roue dentĆ©e infĆ©rieure 13, de type menant, calĆ©e sur un arbre horizontal 14 qui est montĆ© sur l'axe 8 de la porte 6, Ć une extrĆ©mitĆ© de celui-ci, et qui est engagĆ© dans un alĆ©sage 16 formĆ© dans une plaque verticale formant palier 17 solidaire du boĆ®tier, et sur une petite roue dentĆ©e supĆ©rieure 19, de type menĆ©, calĆ©e sur une extrĆ©mitĆ© d'un arbre horizontal 20 parallĆØle Ć l'arbre 14 et engagĆ© dans un alĆ©sage 21 formĆ© dans la plaque 17. Le second Ć©tage de transmission comprend Ć©galement une courroie plane crantĆ©e 23, notablement plus longue que la courroie 12, qui s'Ć©tend Ć travers une ouverture 24 mĆ©nagĆ©e dans la plaque 17 et qui est montĆ©e Ć engrĆØnement Ć la fois sur une grande roue dentĆ©e infĆ©rieure 26, de type menant, calĆ©e sur l'arbre 20 et placĆ©e d'un mĆŖme cĆ“tĆ© que la roue dentĆ©e 19 par rapport Ć la plaque 17, et sur une petite roue dentĆ©e supĆ©rieure 28, de type menĆ©, placĆ©e du cĆ“tĆ© opposĆ© Ć la roue dentĆ©e 26 par rapport Ć ladite plaque 17 et calĆ©e sur un arbre horizontal 29, au voisinage d'une extrĆ©mitĆ© de celui-ci, qui est engagĆ© dans un alĆ©sage 31 formĆ© dans la plaque 17. Cet arbre 29 dĆ©bouche transversalement Ć son autre extrĆ©mitĆ© 33 dans la cavitĆ© 4, Ć un niveau dĆ©terminĆ© de celle-ci, et est enserrĆ© dans un manchon cylindrique d'Ć©tanchĆ©itĆ© 34 rĆ©alisĆ© en une matiĆØre isolante aux micro-ondes telle que, par exemple, une cĆ©ramique. L'extrĆ©mitĆ© dĆ©bouchante 33 de l'arbre 29 porte une grande roue dentĆ©e d'entraĆ®nement 35, de type menant, coopĆ©rant par engrĆØnement avec une denture 36 formant crĆ©maillĆØre qui est rĆ©alisĆ©e sur toute la longueur du bord infĆ©rieur 5a du plateau 5 porteur de la prĆ©paration alimentaire.With reference to FIGS. 1 and 2, the

La plaque 17, figure 2, prĆ©sente Ć sa base deux ailes planes horizontales 38,39 qui sont fixĆ©es, par exemple par soudage, sur le fond 41 du boĆ®tier 1 (figure 1), et sur son bord antĆ©rieur, une aile plane verticale 42 qui est appliquĆ©e fixement, par exemple par soudage, sur la partie interne de la face frontale 2 du boĆ®tier 1 (figures 3 et 4).The
Comme le montre la figure 2, la roue dentĆ©e 13 possĆØde un flasque latĆ©ral 44 prĆ©sentant une mince portion plane formant talon 45, calĆ© angulairement sur l'arbre 14 et adaptĆ© Ć venir en butĆ©e contre l'aile verticale 42 de la plaque 17 en fin d'ouverture de la porte 6, de faƧon Ć maintenir la porte 6 en position ouverte selon l'angle d'ouverture choisi, en l'occurrence 90Ā°. A cet Ć©gard, l'aile verticale 42 de la plaque 17 constitue avantageusement un blindage interne de la face frontale 2 du boĆ®tier vis-Ć -vis du talon de butĆ©e 45 lorsque la porte 6 pivote de sa position fermĆ©e Ć sa position ouverte.As shown in FIG. 2, the
Sur la figure 2, l'arbre de commande 14 de la roue dentĆ©e 13 comporte un mĆ©plat 47 sur lequel est montĆ©e la face latĆ©rale 6a de la porte 6 via un alĆ©sage correspondant 48 mĆ©nagĆ© dans celle-ci. Ce mĆ©plat 47 garantit un meilleur pivotement de la porte 6 et procure Ć cette derniĆØre une plus grande rigiditĆ©, ce qui est nĆ©cessaire lorsque le four est utilisĆ© en quasi permanence, comme par exemple dans le domaine de la restauration rapide.In Figure 2, the
Il convient de noter que la course du plateau 5 porteur de la prĆ©paration alimentaire est dĆ©terminĆ©e en fonction du dĆ©placement angulaire de la porte 6 et du rapport de dĆ©multiplication entre les roues dentĆ©es menantes (13,26,35) et menĆ©es (19,28) du mĆ©canisme de transmission 10. A titre d'exemple nullement limitatif, pour un dĆ©placement angulaire de la porte de 90Ā° et un rapport de dĆ©multiplication de l'ordre de 4, la course du plateau porteur de la prĆ©paration alimentaire est d'environ 150 millimĆØtres.It should be noted that the stroke of the
De prƩfƩrence, la cavitƩ 4 comporte des moyens de guidage du plateau mobile 5 porteur de la prƩparation alimentaire. Dans l'exemple de rƩalisation illustrƩ aux figures 3 et 4, ces moyens de guidage sont constituƩs par des pions fixes 50 montƩs transversalement dans la cavitƩ 4 et disposƩs en quinconce le long des bords supƩrieurs et infƩrieurs du plateau 5.Preferably, the
La cavitĆ© 4 comporte Ć©galement des moyens d'accouplement/dĆ©saccouplement (non reprĆ©sentĆ©s) qui, lorsque le four n'est pas en fonctionnement, permettent de rendre amovible le plateau 5 de faƧon Ć faciliter son nettoyage ainsi que celui de la cavitĆ©.The
La figure 3 montre le plateau 5 porteur de la prĆ©paration alimentaire P en position d'engagement dans laquelle il est entiĆØrement contenu dans la cavitĆ© 4 lorsque la porte 6 est fermĆ©e.FIG. 3 shows the

Claims (10)
- Domestic oven having a casing (1) with a vertical front face (2) and enclosing a heating cavity (4) open at its front face and designed to be closed off by a door (6) mounted so as to pivot about a horizontal shaft (8) situated in the casing, the said cavity (4) being equipped with a plate (5) which supports food to be heated and which is able to move in horizontal translation under the action of at least one movement transmission mechanism (10) controlled by the door (6), disposed in the casing (1) and able, on the one hand, to transform the pivoting movement of the door (6) into a translational movement of the food-carrying plate (5) such that the latter comes to occupy either an engaged position in which it is entirely contained within the cavity (4) when the door (6) is closed, or a disengaged position in which it projects transversely from the cavity (4) when the door (6) is open, characterised in that the transmission mechanism (10) includes several successive transmission stages associated with one another and each consisting of a notched belt (12; 23) mounted so as to mesh on two rotating toothed wheels (13, 19; 26, 28), of the driving and driven type respectively, which are keyed respectively on two horizontal shafts (8, 20; 20, 29), parallel to one another, the shaft of the driving toothed wheel (13) of the first stage consisting of the pivot shaft (8) of the door (6) and the shaft (29) of the driven toothed wheel (28) of the last stage having one end (33) which projects transversely into the cavity (4) and which carries a rotating toothed wheel referred to as the drive wheel (35) meshing with teeth (36) formed on a lower edge of the food-carrying plate (5) and extending over the entire length of the latter.
- Domestic oven according to Claim 1, characterised in that the transmission stages are two in number, the driving toothed wheel (26) of the second stage being keyed on the same shaft (20) as the driven toothed wheel (19) of the first stage.
- Domestic oven according to Claim 2, characterised in that the notched belt (23) of the second transmission stage is appreciably longer than that (12) of the first stage.
- Domestic oven according to one of Claims 1 to 3, characterised in that the respective shafts (8, 20, 29) of the transmission stages are mounted in bores (16, 21, 31) formed in a single plate forming a bearing (17) integral with the casing.
- Domestic oven according to Claim 4, characterised in that the plate forming a bearing (17) has a vertical flange (42) applied against the inner part of the front face (2) of the casing, and in that the driving toothed wheel (13) of the first transmission stage, keyed on the tilting shaft (8) of the door, has a member (44) with a heel (45), able to come to bear against the said flange (42) on the plate at the end of the opening of the door.
- Domestic oven according to any one of the preceding claims, characterised in that the toothed wheels (13, 19, 26, 28, 35) of all the transmission stages have between them a transmission ratio that is determined so as to permit a relatively long travel in the food-carrying plate (5) when the door (6) pivots either from its closed position to its open position, or from its open position to its closed position.
- Domestic oven according to any one of the preceding claims, characterised in that guide means (5) are disposed in the cavity (4) in order to guide the food-carrying plate (5) during its movement.
- Domestic oven according to any one of the preceding claims, in which the cavity (4) is subjected to microwave radiation, characterised in that the part of the shaft (29) of the driven toothed wheel (28) of the final transmission stage, situated between this driven toothed wheel (28) and the toothed driving wheel (35) positioned in the cavity, is sheathed in a sleeve (34) that is impervious to microwaves.
- Domestic oven according to Claim 8, characterised in that the food-carrying plate (5) is produced from a material that is transparent to microwaves.
- Domestic oven according to Claim 9, characterised in that the material transparent to microwaves is a ceramic coated with a glass-based enamel.
