Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Gargerät mit Reinigungseinrichtung, nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a cooking appliance with a cleaning device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Insbesondere betrifft die vorliegende Erfindung ein Gargerät zum Garen von Nahrungsmitteln mittels Dampf, mit einem aufheizbaren Garraum, der durch eine Dekke, drei seitliche Seitenwände, einen Boden und eine eine Zutrittsöffnung aufweisende Frontwand begrenzt ist. Im Abstand zu einer Seitenwand ist eine Trennblende auch Luftleitblech genannt, vorgesehen, die eine Mittenöffnung aufweist, und zwischen dieser Seitenwand und der Trennblende ist ein angetriebenes Lüfterrad vorgesehen, das zur Umwälzung der sich im Garraum befindlichen Luft bzw. des sich einstellenden und gegebenenfalls zugeführten Dampfes dient.In particular, the present invention relates to a cooking device for cooking food by means of steam, with a heatable cooking space that is covered by a cover, three lateral side walls, a floor and an access opening Front wall is limited. There is a dividing screen at a distance from a side wall also called air baffle, provided which has a central opening, and A driven fan wheel is located between this side wall and the partition provided that for the circulation of the air in the cooking space or the adjusts and possibly supplied steam.

Aus der DE 42 23 451 A1 ist eine Sprühdüse bekannt, die an der Decke des Garraums angeordnet ist, wobei sie mit Wasserzuführeinrichtungen versehen ist und die Sprühdüse derart ausgebildet ist, daß das Wasser nach im wesentlichen allen Raumrichtungen sprühbar ist.From DE 42 23 451 A1 a spray nozzle is known, which is on the ceiling of the cooking space is arranged, wherein it is provided with water supply devices and the spray nozzle is designed such that the water after essentially all Spatial directions is sprayable.

Die in dem Gargerät gemäß DE 42 23 451 A1 angeordnete Reinigungseinrichtung weist jedoch Nachteile auf. Aufgrund der Anordnung in der Mitte der Decke ist die Sprühdüse zwar in der Lage, den Garraumabschnitt zu reinigen, der sich vor der Trennblende befindet, sie erreicht den Abschnitt zwischen einer Seitenwand, in dem Fall der hinteren, und der Trennblende, in dem sich das Lüfterrad befindet jedoch nur wenig und unzureichend. Der Reinigungserfolg dieses Abschnitts ist deshalb sehr beschränkt.The cleaning device arranged in the cooking appliance according to DE 42 23 451 A1 however, has disadvantages. Due to the arrangement in the middle of the ceiling, the Spray nozzle is able to clean the cooking compartment section that is in front of the Partition, it reaches the section between a side wall, in the case of the rear, and the partition where the fan is located however, little and insufficient. The cleaning success of this section is therefore very limited.

Ein weiterer Nachteil ergibt sich durch die örtliche Anordnung an der Decke des Gargeräts dadurch. daß in dem Deckenbereich, der nach außen hin geschlossen sein muß und gegebenenfalls Wärmedämmeinrichtungen aufweist, die Wasserzuführeinrichtungen vorgesehen werden müssen, was zu einer höchst aufwendigen und komplizierten Montage dieser Wasserzuführeinrichtungen führt.Another disadvantage arises from the local arrangement on the ceiling of the Cooking appliance. that in the ceiling area that is closed to the outside must be and possibly has thermal insulation devices, the water supply devices must be provided, resulting in a highly complex and complicated assembly of these water supply devices leads.

Wie auch aus der DE 42 23 451 A1 bekannt, ist eine weitere Wasserzufuhr zur Erzeugung des Dampfes in dem Gargerät vorgesehen, die sich in den Bereich des Lüfterrades erstreckt. Aus der DE 197 30 610 C1 ist ebenfalls ein Gargerät mit einer Reinigungseinrichtung bekannt, bei dem die Dampfzuführdüse oder Beschwadungsdüse unmittelbar vor dem Lüfterrad und hinter der Trennblendebene liegt. Zum Reinigen wird eine Reinigungsflüssigkeit sowohl zu der ebenfalls an der Garraumdecke befindlichen Sprühdüse als auch zur Beschwadungsdüse geführt, wobei mit Hilfe des drehenden Lüfterrads die von der Beschwadungsdüse ausgegebene Reinigungsflüssigkeit in dem hinteren Abschnitt verteilt werden soll. Diese Lösung bringt jedoch erhebliche Nachteile in hygienischer Hinsicht mit sich, da sichergestellt werden muß, daß jegliche Reinigungsflüssigkeit sich aus dem Zuführkanal zur Beschwadungsdüse und aus dieser selbst entfernt hat, da sonst während des Garens Reinigungsflüssigkeit in den Garraum eingesprüht wird, was entsprechende Auswirkungen auf die garenden Nahrungsmittel hat.As is also known from DE 42 23 451 A1, a further water supply is for generation the steam provided in the cooking device, which is in the range of Fan wheel extends. From DE 197 30 610 C1 is also a cooking device with a Known cleaning device in which the steam supply nozzle or steam nozzle is located directly in front of the fan wheel and behind the anti-glare panel. For cleaning, a cleaning liquid is added to the one on the ceiling of the cooking space located spray nozzle and also to the humidification nozzle, whereby with the help of the rotating fan wheel the output from the humidification nozzle Cleaning liquid to be distributed in the rear section. This However, the solution has considerable disadvantages in terms of hygiene, since it is ensured it must be ensured that any cleaning liquid flows out of the feed channel to the humidifying nozzle and removed it itself, otherwise during of cooking cleaning liquid is sprayed into the cooking space, which is corresponding Has an impact on the food being cooked.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Gargerät mit einer Reinigungseinrichtung zu schaffen, bei dem auf einfache Weise, einschließlich unter Schaffung einer einfachen Montage, eine wirksame Reinigung des gesamten Garraums, also auch des Abschnitts erfolgt, in dem sich das Lüfterrad befindet.The present invention is therefore based on the object of having a cooking appliance to provide a cleaning facility in which simple, including creating a simple assembly, effective cleaning of the whole Cooking space, so also the section in which the fan is located.

Vorzugsweise ist der Zuführkanal zwischen dieser Seitenwand und der Sprühdüse in einem im wesentlichen starren Führungsrohr angeordnet. Das auskragende Ende des Führungsrohrs kann dabei als Aufnahme der Sprühdüse dienen, so daß keine weiteren Halte- und Lagereinrichtungen notwendig sind.The feed channel is preferably between this side wall and the spray nozzle arranged in a substantially rigid guide tube. The cantilevered end the guide tube can serve as a receptacle for the spray nozzle, so that no further holding and storage facilities are necessary.

Mit Vorteil weisen die Flüssigkeitszuführeinrichtungen einen Wasserzuführkanal und einen Reinigungsmittelzuführkanal auf. Damit wird ermöglicht, daß nicht nur Wasser, sondern auch ein geeignetes Reinigungsmittel mittels der Sprühdüse im Garraum versprüht wird, wonach eine Durchspülung des Zuführkanals mit Wasser zur Ausbringung des Reinigungsmittels auf einfache Weise möglich ist.The liquid supply devices advantageously have a water supply channel and a detergent supply channel. This enables not only Water, but also a suitable cleaning agent using the spray nozzle in the Cooking space is sprayed, after which a flushing of the feed channel with water for applying the cleaning agent is possible in a simple manner.

Weiterhin ist vorteilhaft in dem Reinigungsmittelzuführkanal eine Förderpumpe vorgesehen, mit der auf einfache Weise das Reinigungsmittel in den Flüssigkeitszuführkanal eingespeist wird, vorzugsweise solange, bis das Reinigungsmittel die Sprühdüse erreicht hat. Danach wird Wasser aus dem Wasserzuführkanal zugeführt und das Reinigungsmittel in den Garraum ausgebracht. Gleichzeitig wird die Zuführleitung bis zur Sprühdüse und auch diese wieder gespült und das Reinigungsmittel vollständig rückstandsfrei ausgebracht.Furthermore, a feed pump is advantageously provided in the detergent supply duct, with the detergent in a simple manner in the liquid supply channel is fed, preferably until the detergent Spray nozzle has reached. Then water is supplied from the water supply channel and spread the detergent into the cooking space. At the same time, the Feed line to the spray nozzle and this is rinsed again and the cleaning agent applied completely residue-free.

Weiterhin kann vorteilhafterweise eine einstellbare bzw. programmierbare Steuereinrichtung vorgesehen sein, die in der Lage ist, verschiedene voreingestellte bzw. vorprogrammierte Reinigungs-Steuerprogramme zu steuern.Furthermore, an adjustable or programmable control device can advantageously be used be provided, which is able to preset different or control preprogrammed cleaning control programs.

In einer einfachen sehr effektiven Ausführungsform ist eine Sprühdüse vorgesehen. Je nach Größe des Garraums kann eine weitere oder auch mehrere weitere Sprühdüsen vorgesehen werden, die in entsprechenden Ausnehmungen in dem Düsen-Randbereich der Trennblende angeordnet sind. Beispielsweise sind zwei Düsen um 180° versetzt in dem Düsen-Randbereich angeordnet oder können auch drei Düsen beispielsweise um jeweils 120° versetzt zueinander angeordnet sein.In a simple, very effective embodiment, a spray nozzle is provided. Depending on the size of the cooking space, one or more can be used Spray nozzles are provided in the corresponding recesses in the Nozzle edge area of the partition are arranged.
