  • Stiffening elements 23 formed on both longitudinal sides of the bearing housing 21. These dive into a door interior 41 and are releasably attached to lateral edge strips 25 of the door 5, for example screwed.
  • FIG. 3 shows a sectional view along the line A-A from FIG. 2, in which the door panes 7, 9 are indicated in dashed lines. Accordingly, the stiffening element 27 is in contact with the outer door pane 9, while the inner door pane 7 lies with the interposition of a seal 29 on a contact surface 22 of the bearing housing 21. From Figure 3 it is further apparent that the bearing housing 21 has a support surface 31. The support surface 31 is disposed between the lateral pivot pins 19 and extends in the axial direction of the pivot member 16 over almost the entire length of the pivot member 1. In contact with the support surface 31 is a corresponding counter surface 33 of the pivot member 16. In the pivotal movement of the door handle 17 is thus the pivot member 16 is supported on the support surface 31. On the bearing housing 21 further two stops 35, 37 are formed, which limit a pivoting range of the door handle 17.

  • a second pull cable 48 engages.
  • the second pull cable 48 is guided opposite to the first pull cable 43 around the cam plate 47 and fixed to the attachment point 46 on the circumference of the cam plate 47.
  • the first and second traction cables 43, 48 and the cams 47 constitute components of a control gear 38.
  • the control gear 38 transmits a pivoting movement of the door 5 to the door handle 17, i. upon pivoting of the door 5 in a first pivoting direction, the control gear 38 pivots the door handle 17 in a second pivoting direction opposite to the first pivoting direction.
  • the structure and operation of the control gear 38 are explained below with reference to FIG 4.
  • FIG. 4 an upper and lower section of the door 5 is shown in a sectional view along the line BB from FIG.

  • a conventional door hinge 49 is disposed in the door interior 41.
  • the door hinge 49 protrudes with a hinge part 51 through the cooking chamber 3 facing the inside of the door; the hinge part 51 is inserted in a corresponding receptacle of the cooking appliance.
  • the door hinge 49 has a counterbalancing mechanism, which is indicated by a weight compensating spring 56.
  • the counterbalancing mechanism exerts a compensating force on the hinge part 51 during a pivotal movement of the door 5; the balancing force counteracts the weight of the door 5.
  • a minimum value for the spring force of the tension spring 39 corresponds approximately to the frictional forces to be overcome for returning the door handle 17, after no more actuating force F is exerted on the door handle 17.
  • the tension spring 39 is dimensioned such that the above minimum value is about 10-20% of the spring force of the tension spring 39.
  • the spring force of the tension spring 39 is thus about five to ten times greater than this minimum value. In a faulty operation of the door handle 17, such as by exerting the upward actuating force F (see Figure 4), therefore damage to the control gear 38 is prevented. At the same time allows the comparatively large spring force during a normal opening or closing operation of the door handle 17 by the operator an ergonomically favorable operating feeling.
  • the radius of the cam 47 is of great importance.
  • the radius of the cam 47 determines on the one hand the length of the lever arm and thus the size of the torque with which the traction cables 43, 48 act on the cam 47.
  • the gear ratio is determined by the cam radius, with which a drive movement of the control gear 38 is converted into a pivoting movement of the door handle 17.

  • FIG. 5 shows the points of application of the tension cables 43 and 48 with the reference symbols A1 and A2.
  • the point A1 of the pull cable 43 moves counterclockwise during an opening operation of the door 5 by a rotation angle section of about 90 ° along the circumference of the cam 47.
  • the lever arm length r1 is substantially constant.
  • the force exerted on the door handle 17 torque M1 is therefore constant during the pivotal movement of the door 5.
  • the engagement point A2 of the traction cable 48 moves counterclockwise about the rotational angle section of about 90 ° along the circumference of the cam plate 47.
  • the lever arm length r2 decreases with its pivoting movement of the door 5 from its closed position; that is, in the horizontal door position, the torque M2 applied to the door handle 17 is the lowest.
  • the torque M2 counteracts a weight force of the door 5; the weight of the door 5 keeps the door 5 stable in its horizontal position.
  • the reduced in the horizontal door position torque M2 is therefore not able to compensate for the weight of the door.
  • the stable position of the door in its horizontal position is thus not affected by the torque M2.
  • the transmission ratio of the control gear 38 can be changed in dependence on the pivotal position of the door 5.
  • Drive losses of the control gear 38 which arise, for example, at the beginning of a pivotal movement of the door by expanding the traction cables 43, 48 or by a game in the control gear 38, can thus be compensated.
