Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an oven closure device in accordance with the introduction to the main claim.
  • Oven closure devices comprising a handle associated with a support fixed to a door movable over an opening formed in an oven structure.
  • the support is preferably hollow and supports a deformable element or an elastically movable coupling element which, when the door is closed onto the oven structure, cooperates with a pin or a coupling and fastening element associated with this structure.
  • the cooperation between the deformable element and the coupling pin results in coupling between the door and the oven structure; in contrast, rotation of the handle results in deformation of the deformable element about the pin due to the action of this latter on said element which also rotates with the handle, allowing said parts to be disengaged and the oven door to be opened.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a closure device for ovens and the like which represents an improvement over similar already known closure devices.
  • a particular object of the present invention is to provide an oven closure device of the stated type which is reliable in use, is of better construction than known solutions, and can be easily mounted on an oven door.
  • an oven closure device is indicated overall by 1 and comprises a handle 2 associated with a support 3 fixed to an oven door 4 by usual screws 5.
  • the handle support 3 is hollow at 8 and contains within it an annular piece or first bush 9 of annular shape mounted about a second bush 10 and disposed on a sunken region 11 thereof.
  • the second bush 10 comprises an end portion 12 about which a spring 13 is disposed to act as a return element for the handle 2 when this is rotated about an axis K to open the door 4.
  • the end portion 12 has a cross-shaped cross-section and is inserted into a seat 15 of corresponding shape provided in the handle 2.
  • a screw 18 fixes the two bushes 9, 10, the support 3 and the handle 2 together.
  • the second bush 10 presents seats 20, 21 for pins 22 and 23 (on which the first bush 9 rests to retain them in their seats 20, 21) respectively, on which are mounted first ends 26 of movable coupling elements 27 projecting from the support 3 (or rather projecting from a cup-shaped portion 10A of the bush 10) to cooperate with a coupling pin 29 fixed, by screwing, to a part 30 fixed to an oven structure 31, said structure being of known type.
  • the door 4 is positioned on an opening provided in said structure.
  • each movable element 27 comprises a part 36 having the end 26 provided with a hole 37 for receiving a corresponding pin 22 or 23 acting as a hinge pin for the movement of the corresponding movable element 27.
  • This latter also comprises, on a lateral part 38 thereof, a seat 39 for a first end of a spring 41 which cooperates via its other end with a corresponding recess 42 provided in the second bush 10 or rather in an inner wall 43 of the cup-shaped portion 10A of said bush defining the cavity 8.
  • the spring 41 is disposed with its axis F cutting the axis K at an angle other than 90°.
  • Each movable element 27 comprises opposite the end 26 a second end 46 provided with an aperture 48 and, internally, with a transverse shoulder 44 disposed between said aperture and the free end 46A of the second end 46.
  • This aperture and shoulder cooperate with a corresponding projection 49 provided on the head 50 of the pin 29.
  • This head 50 presents a conical end 51, said projection 49 tapering at its free end 52 to assume a substantially pyramidal shape.
  • the handle 2 To open the door 4 the handle 2 has merely to be rotated about the axis K against the action of the spring 13. This rotation causes simultaneous rotation of the elements 27, which become spatially position such that the projections 49 emerge from their apertures 48 and shoulders 44 to be positioned in a region 60 present between the elements 27. In this manner, the door 4 has merely to be pulled away from the structure 31 to separate the elements 27 from the coupling pin 29. In this manner, by simply rotating the handle 2, achieved with minimum force because the pin 29 does not have to intervene to mutually separate the elements 27, the oven door 4 can be opened.
  • a peg 90 is provided between the mobile elements 27.
  • This peg is inserted into a seat 91 present in the first ends 26 of the coupled elements 27 and is inserted into the support 3 in opposing seats 93 provided in a wall 94 of said support which defines the recess 8 thereof.
  • the peg is housed in the seats 93 and is maintained in position by the retention action of the springs 41, which tend to pull the elements 27 together.
  • the head 50 of the pin 29 is of simple conical shape with a terminal edge 96 which cooperates with the apertures 48 and the transverse shoulders 44 of the elements 27.
  • the oven door 4 is opened by again rotating the handle 2 about the axis K, causing the peg 90 (fixed) to act on the elements 27 (rotating about the axis K with the handle 2), this action causing these elements to widen and separate against the action of the spring 41.
  • This widening enables said elements, by enlarging the region 60 present between them, to simply withdraw from the pin 29 without this latter touching the inner surfaces of the elements 27.
  • the embodiments described here are of simple construction and reliable use.
  • the provision of the two mobile elements 27 ensures optimal closure of the door 4 onto the oven structure 31, to remain closed by the connection between projecting parts (projections 49 or flanges 96) of the head 50 of the pin 29 and the seats 48 and shoulders 44 provided in the mobile elements 27.
  • the oven can then be opened by simply overcoming the elastic retaining force of the spring 13 (embodiment of Figures 1-7 ) or at most by overcoming an additional resistance generated by the springs 41 on the elements 27 (embodiment of Figures 8 and 9 ).
  • the pin 29 does not act as an element resisting door opening, but is simply as a passive element which maintain the door closed onto the structure 31.
