  • the supporting member includes: a plate part which is combined with the inner cover and has an opening part corresponding to the transparent window; a supporter which is extended from the periphery of the opening part of the plate part toward the inside of the oven compartment and supports the transparent window against the window accommodating part of the inner cover.
  • the supporter gives a predetermined pressure to periphery of the transparent window.
  • heat-resisting elastic materials are provided between the window accommodating part and the transparent window and between the supporter and the transparent window.
  • the door further comprises an outer cover which forms an outward appearance of the door outside of the supporting member and provided with an observation window placed corresponding to the transparent window.
  • the supporting member is combined with the inner cover and the outer cover, respectively.
  • a method of assembling an oven door comprising: placing a window of an inner cover into a window accommodating part of an inner cover; attaching a supporting member to the inner cover; adhering the window to the window accommodating part with a supporter of the supporting member being in contact with the periphery of the window; and combining an outer cover with the supporting member and the inner cover, respectively.
  • an oven according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a main body 1 including an oven compartment 3 and a component compartment (not shown); a door 10 provided in the front of the main body 1 to open and close a front opening of the oven compartment 3 pivotally; an operation display panel 5 provided at a side of the front of the main body 1 to display an operation state of the main body 1; a pair of kneading drums 9 which is disposed in parallel each other in upper and lower parts of the oven compartment 3 which wind opposite ends of a mixing bag (not shown) filled with raw materials for bread in clockwise and counter-clockwise directions; and a baking tray 7 put in the oven compartment 3.
  • the door 10 comprises: an inner cover 20 which is provided facing the oven compartment 3 and formed with a through opening 21 to show the oven compartment 3 therethrough; a transparent window 15 mounted in the through opening 21; a supporting member 30 supporting the transparent window 15 to the inner cover 20; and an outer cover 40 which is provided outside of the supporting member 31 and forms an outward appearance of the door 10.
  • the transparent window 15 is preferably of a rectangular shape for being put in a window accommodating part 23 provided in the through opening 21 of the inner cover 20, but it may be of various shapes such as a circular, an oval or a polygonal shape according as designed.
  • the transparent window 15 is preferably made of transparent or semitransparent glass which is capable of resisting heat of high temperature generated from the oven compartment 3, but it may be made of materials such as plastics.
  • the inner cover 20 forms an inner part of the door 10 and is preferably made of metal plate resisting heat of high temperature, but it may be made of heat-resisting materials such as plastics.
  • the through opening 21 formed in the inner cover 20 is of a rectangular shape.
  • the through opening 21 may be of various shapes such as a circular or a polygonal shape according to the shape of the through opening 15.
  • the window accommodating part 23 is provided in the through opening 21.
  • the window accommodating part 23 is as shown in Figure 3, formed by being bent from the periphery of the through opening 21 toward the oven compartment 3 and then bent toward the center of the through opening 21, so that the transparent window 15 can be put in the bent part. That is, the window accommodating part 23 is preferably of an "L" shape (as shown).
  • the supporting member 30 comprises preferably a plate part 31, which is combined with the inner cover 20 and the outer cover 40, respectively, through engaging means such as screws 35 and 45 and whose middle part is opened corresponding to the transparent window 15; a supporter 33 which is formed by being bended from the periphery of the opened middle part of the plate part 31 toward the inside of the oven compartment 3 and supports the transparent window 15 by contacting with the periphery of the transparent window 15 put in the window accommodating part 23; and a plurality of bosses 37 which project from the outer surface of the supporting member 30 and through which the screws 35 pass toward the outer cover 40.
  • the supporter 33 supports the transparent window 15 by contacting the periphery of the transparent window 15 put in the window accommodating part 23, thereby preventing the transparent window 15 from being detached from the window accommodating part 23. It is preferable that the supporter 33 gives a predetermined pressure to the transparent window 15 against the window accommodating part 23 such that the transparent window 15 may not be broken.
  • the pressure given to the transparent window 15 may be generated when the plate part 31 is combined with the inner cover 20 through the screws 35. Further, the intensity of the pressure can be controlled by controlling the intensity of the engaging force of the screw 35.
  • the outer cover 40 forms an outward appearance of the door 10 and is provided with an observation window 41 placed corresponding to the transparent window 15.
  • the outer cover 40 is preferably combined with the supporting member 30 by the screws 45.
  • the outer cover 40 may be combined with the inner cover 20 by the screws 45. In this case, because the screws 45 are engaged with the inner cover 20 through the bosses 37 of the supporting member 30, the screws 35 are not necessary.
  • the observation window 41 is preferably is made of transparent materials, so that the inside of the oven compartment 3 can be shown therethrough. Further, the observation window 41 may be made of the same material as that of the outer cover 40. Accordingly, the observation window 41 may be made of different material from that of the outer cover 40.
  • the assembling process of the door 10 according to this embodiment of the present invention is to be described as follows: at first, the transparent window 15 of the inner cover 20 is put into the window accommodating part 23. Then, the supporting member 40 is combined with the inner cover 20, so that the transparent window 15 can be adhered to the window accommodating part 23 with the supporter 33 of the supporting member 31 being contacted with the periphery of the transparent window 15. Thereafter, the outer cover 40 is combined with the supporting member 30 so that the observation window 41 is placed corresponding to the transparent window 15.
  • Heat-resisting elastic materials are preferably provided between the window accommodating part 23 and the transparent window 15 and between the supporter 33 and the transparent window 15.
  • These heat-resisting elastic materials are preferably made of rubber, etc. which is capable of resisting heat of the high temperature generated from the oven compartment 3.
  • the transparent window 15 given pressure by the supporter 33 can be prevented from being broken by means of the heat-resisting elastic materials provided between the window accommodating part 23 and the transparent window 15 and between the supporter 33 and the transparent window 15. Further, the leakage of heat generated from the oven compartment 3 can be reduced, by being sealed between the transparent window 15 and the through opening 21 of the inner cover 20 by means of the heat-resisting elastic materials.
