Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for controlling cooking processes of a food in a cooking chamber of a Dampfgarilless such as a steamer.
- the invention has for its object to provide an aforementioned method with which problems of the prior art can be avoided and in particular a cooking process of food in a steam cooking appliance can be controlled by leaking from the food or gas.
- a concentration of a gas or moisture emerging from the food or in the cooking space is detected by a sensor such as a gas sensor over time.
- a sensor such as a gas sensor
- moisture or steam is not introduced into the steam cooking space during the operation of the steam cooking appliance, so that gas or moisture escaping from the food to be cooked can influence the sensor system sufficiently clearly or succinctly for reliable measurement.
- the sensor system or a sensor is evaluated or the measured values are evaluated over time for a specific time.
- the cooking end is determined for a given cooking process with fixed times of the supply of steam or the steam cooking operation by evaluating the sensors over time.
- step a) steam is introduced into the cooking chamber or the food to be cooked is steamed before the measuring phase during a vapor phase, as is the case with the cooking operation of the steam cooking appliance. After this vapor phase and again before the measuring phase, the steam supply is completed or is set during a ventilation phase, and by aeration of the cooking chamber, the concentration of steam or gas or moisture in the cooking chamber is at least significantly reduced. This can be a reduction by, for example, half, advantageously a strong reduction to values similar to the ambient air.
- step b) steam is again introduced into the cooking chamber after the measuring phase during a vapor phase, or the food to be cooked is steamed, as it corresponds to the cooking mode of the steam cooking appliance. During this Vapor phase is omitted an evaluation of the sensor or it is no longer measured, as it is also advantageous in step a).
- step a) the ventilation phase
- step b the ventilation phase
- steam or moisture emerging from the food to be cooked can be detected by the gas sensor. It is also possible to carry out both step a) and step b), ie to steam the food twice.
- the fundamental determination of the end of cooking on the basis of the measured values of the sensors can be carried out as in the DE 10 2007 003 225
- Such a measurement for detecting moisture is a direct measurement, especially if the moisture is measured directly.
- the Dampfgarieri may at the end of the measurement phase or shortly before the end, especially if the Garende has already been determined, the Dampfgarieri continue to operate as before.
- This can be a kind of follow-up phase of the measurement phase, which is either additional or included. Again, with the gas sensor being measured, no steam should be supplied from the outside during this time.
- This type of follow-up time can be used in the event of a fault such as Opening a door to the cooking chamber, the measurement results of the sensors of the expected or previously determined course vary greatly or disturbed. The decay of this disorder can then be awaited or then a re-determination of the Garendes done. If, during this follow-up phase, the measurement results do not deviate significantly from the expected or predetermined course, then the cooking process can continue to run as previously determined until the end of cooking.
- the Garende can be brought about or shortened earlier, since with the steam is another energy input into the food.
- the supplied amount of steam is known and the energy content of this steam is calculated, for example, also based on its measured temperature.
- the resulting energy input into the food can be calculated, which depends on the temperature conditions and / or the design conditions in the oven.
- a vapor phase in particular according to step a), can take 5 to 15 minutes.
- a measurement phase can take between 5 and 30 minutes.
- the measurement phase lasts so long or is carried out until a characteristic point or portion of the course of the measured values or the evaluation of the sensor is reached, due to which the cooking end can be calculated with sufficient accuracy.
- an operator enters the type of food in the steam cooking appliance in any way.
- the type of food can be determined from the evaluation of the sensor during the measurement phase, possibly taking into account further parameters, such as a type of vapor phase input by an operator, either at the beginning of the cooking process prior to the measuring phase and / or after the measuring phase. Also this is on the aforementioned DE 10 2007 003 225 pointed.
- a gas sensor may be configured to directly measure a moisture in the cooking chamber or steam, which exits the food, for which the gas sensor is advantageously designed as a humidity sensor.
- the Dampfgar Corporation may have a ventilation system for the cooking chamber, which makes it possible, depending on the progress of the cooking process, the air in the oven more or less quickly or more or less exchange with ambient air.
- This ventilation system may be controlled by a controller of the Dampfgarieris in the context of the previously determined cooking process and possibly taking into account the determined during the measurement phase Garendes. It can, for example, with flaps, sliders or the like. be provided, which can be driven in particular by an electric motor.
- the cooking chamber is advantageously closed or an air supply or ventilation of the cooking chamber, in particular with fresh air from the ambient air, is greatly reduced or suppressed.
- substantially hot steam is supplied according to the steam cooking operation of the steam cooking appliance.
- the ventilation system of the cooking chamber can be open during the ventilation phase or the cooking chamber can be ventilated maximum. This results in the fastest possible removal of the steam from the cooking chamber or a reduction in the vapor content.
- a low ventilation of the cooking chamber advantageously takes place during the measurement phase, a low ventilation of the cooking chamber.
- These may be about 5% to 15% of a maximum possible ventilation, so that here during the measurement phase a certain, for the determination sufficiently large amount of moisture in the oven can occur, which over time by the sensor and especially by a gas sensor can be detected.
- the ventilation system of the cooking chamber or the Dampfgarilles mars be open only to a small extent. Too much aeration would in turn allow too much moisture to escape from the cooking chamber and falsify a measurement or make it impossible.
- step a During a possibly occurring before the measurement phase vapor phase according to step a), in which also a heating of the cooking chamber can take place, there is still no need for the detection of measured values. Since a determination of the end of cooking, which is ultimately a main object of the invention of the present application, can only take place on the basis of the evaluation of the curve for the moisture progression over time, there must be usable values for this, as they are not present, especially at the beginning of a cooking process. Thus, in order to obtain the necessary process information for determining the end of cooking, the sensor system should no longer be disturbed by external influences during the measurement phase, so that no change in the vapor content takes place, which indicates an incorrect state during the evaluation. Furthermore, in the cooking chamber due to a previously made steaming no too high concentration of vapor should be present, otherwise the amount of moisture exiting the food is too low and can no longer be sufficiently safe and accurate compared to an existing moisture quantity.
- a steam oven 11 is shown with a housing 12.
- the steamer 11 has a cooking chamber 13, in which a food support 14 is included along with cooked food 15 which is to be prepared in the steamer 11 and in the preparation of a vapor deposition is possible or even useful , Access to the cooking chamber 13 via a door 16, via which a Wrasenabzug 17 is provided. Inside the fume hood 17, a flap 23 is provided, which can be actuated by a control 36, for example, by an electric motor.
- the cooking chamber 13 is heated by a top heat radiator 19a and a bottom heat radiator 19b. These are controlled via the controller 36 together with an operating unit 37 according to a desired operator's default, such as temperature, water vapor composition and / or cooking time.
- the controller may include a memory, not shown, are stored in the information about certain programmed cooking processes.
- the housing 12 has on its rear side access to an intake passage 21 through which fresh air can be brought into the cooking chamber 13.
- a flap 22 is provided to close the intake passage 21 can.
- the flaps 22 and 23 together form a ventilation system for the steamer 11, which is controlled by the controller 36. This will be explained in more detail below.
- the intake passage 21 leads after the flap 22 to a water tank 30 as a water reservoir with water 31 over.
- a heater 32 is arranged to be controlled by the controller 36 from the water 31 to generate steam 34.
- the steam 34 is brought by means of a fan 24 through the intake passage 21 into the cooking chamber 13.
- the operation of the fan 24 is monitored by the controller 36, particularly as part of the ventilation system.
- a temperature sensor 38 and a humidity sensor 39 which forms the sensor system or is a part thereof, the operating conditions in the cooking chamber 13 can be monitored for influencing by the controller 36.
- a ventilation of the cooking chamber 13 and an air flow can be controlled. It can be supplied with open dampers 22 and 23 fresh air from the outside with normal water vapor content, for example, the so-called flushing of the cooking chamber 13 to flush out the steam 34 from the oven.
- the inner flap 27 is open and the outer flap 22 is closed, the air in the cooking chamber 13 can be circulated. there the generation of additional steam 34 is also possible in the circulation operation, since here, too, the circulated air is passed through the intake passage 21 to the water tank 30.
- Fig. 2 a course of the moisture F over the time t is shown, which occurs for example when baking food such as bread or rolls.
- the course of the humidity F according to Fig. 2 Although it can be detected with the humidity sensor 39 in the cooking chamber 13. At the same time, however, this moisture profile can only be determined in this form if no additional moisture or steam is introduced through the steam cooking operation of the steam cooker 11. In this respect, the curve is according to Fig. 2 a more theoretical curve without external influences.
- the flaps 22 and 23 are substantially closed or it is supplied with little air from the outside and may be made only by opening the inner flap 27 a kind of circulation.
- a ventilation phase II After completion of the vapor phase I is followed by a ventilation phase II.
- the steam operation is stopped, so that no additional steam is introduced into the cooking chamber 13.
- the ventilation phase II at least the flaps 22 and 23 of the ventilation system are open and the humidity in the cooking chamber 13 is by operation brought out of the fan 24, so the cooking chamber 13, so to speak flushed with fresh air.
- the opening width of the flaps 22 and 23 can be sensibly varied by the controller 36.
- either the moisture content in the cooking chamber 13 due to the previous vapor phase I can be reduced, for example to half, or the moisture can be removed as completely as possible or ambient air can be introduced into the cooking chamber 13.
- the measurement phase III begins.
- the flaps 22 and 23 are largely closed to allow a small air supply or a low air exchange, for example, with 5% to 15% of a maximum ventilation level.
- the operation of the steamer 11 corresponds to an operation of a normal oven, ie with at least the top heat 19a and / or the top heat 19b and without steam supply.
- the moisture profile F can be detected by the humidity sensor 39.
- a method according to the DE 10 2007 003 225 be performed to regulate the cooking process of the food 15 in the steamer 11 or to determine an end of the cooking process.
- the food to be cooked 15 is entered by an operator in the controller 36 of the cooking appliance, for example by means of the control unit 37.
- the end of the cooking can be predetermined or calculated. If this is done during the measurement phase III, a follow-up phase III 'is started.
- This follow-up phase III ' which is optional, is characterized in that it starts at a time when the cooking end is already predetermined.
- the measured values of the humidity sensor 39 and thus also the course of the humidity F over time are still recorded and evaluated. Should a fluctuation or disturbance of the measured values of the sensor 39 take place again during this time, the end of the cooking must be recalculated. However, this is already in the aforementioned DE 10 2007 003 225 described,
- a second vapor phase IV can be carried out, which corresponds to the aforementioned step b).
- the gradient for the vapor deposition D once more steam is introduced into the cooking chamber for steaming the food 15. This can be done as described above. Again, it should be noted again that thus the moisture content in the cooking chamber 13 changes significantly compared to the moisture profile F of the food 15 alone. However, since the end of cooking has already been predetermined during the measurement phase III, and it has also been calculated that, and whether a second vapor phase IV follows again, this does not disturb. Finally, after the end of the second vapor phase IV, the food to be cooked 15 is considered finished and the cooking end is reached.
- the Garendes a Garguts 15 can be performed due to the time course of emerging from the food moisture F, although actually such a moisture determination in a steamer due to heavy steam, at least during certain times of the cooking process is not possible.
- the process is suitably suitable for a food to be cooked, which does not have to be permanently vaporized or at its intended preparation does not constantly high concentration of steam in the oven must be present, such as bread, rolls or other pasta, possibly even cake.
- a ventilation phase II before the measurement phase III is not necessarily all steam or all moisture must be removed from the oven.
- the existing moisture is to be reduced to such an extent that the moisture exiting from the food to be cooked can be detected by the humidity sensor 39 sufficiently accurately in order to determine, based on the theoretical course Fig. 2 to determine the end of the cooking.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Regelung von Garvorgängen eines Gargutes in einem Garraum eines Dampfgargerätes wie beispielsweise einem Steamer.The invention relates to a method for controlling cooking processes of a food in a cooking chamber of a Dampfgargerätes such as a steamer.
Es ist aus der
Aus der
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein eingangs genanntes Verfahren zu schaffen, mit denen Probleme des Standes der Technik vermieden werden können und insbesondere ein Garvorgang von Gargut in einem Dampfgargerät geregelt werden kann anhand von aus dem Gargut austretendem Gas oder Feuchte.The invention has for its object to provide an aforementioned method with which problems of the prior art can be avoided and in particular a cooking process of food in a steam cooking appliance can be controlled by leaking from the food or gas.
Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch ein Verfahren mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1. Vorteilhafte sowie bevorzugte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der weiteren Ansprüche und werden im Folgenden näher erläutert. Der Wortlaut der Ansprüche wird durch ausdrückliche Bezugnahme zum Inhalt der Beschreibung gemacht.This object is achieved by a method having the features of claim 1. Advantageous and preferred embodiments of the invention are the subject of the other claims and are explained in more detail below. The wording of the claims is expressed by express Reference made to the content of the description.
Bei dem Verfahren wird während des Garvorgangs zumindest zeitweise, insbesondere während einer Messphase, eine aus dem Gargut austretende bzw. in dem Garraum vorhandene Konzentration eines Gases oder einer Feuchte durch eine Sensorik wie beispielsweise einen Gassensor über der Zeit erfasst. Während der Messphase unterbleibt dabei ein Einbringen von Feuchte bzw. Dampf in den Dampfgarraum im Rahmen des Betriebs des Dampfgargeräts, so dass hier aus dem Gargut austretendes Gas bzw. austretende Feuchte die Sensorik ausreichend deutlich bzw. prägnant beeinflussen kann zur sicheren Messung. Während dieser Messphase wird die Sensorik bzw. ein Sensor ausgewertet bzw. die Messwerte werden im zeitlichen Verlauf ausgewertet für eine bestimmte Zeit. Während der Messphase wird das Garende bei vorgegebenem Garvorgang mit festgelegten Zeiten der Zuführung von Dampf bzw. des Dampfgarbetriebs bestimmt durch Auswertung der Sensorik über der Zeit. Zusätzlich dazu wird mindestens der folgende Schritt a) durchgeführt. Bei Schritt a) wird vor der Messphase während einer Dampfphase Dampf in den Garraum eingebracht bzw. das Gargut bedampft, wie es dem Garbetrieb des Dampfgargeräts entspricht. Nach dieser Dampfphase und wiederum vor der Messphase wird während einer Belüftungsphase die Dampfzufuhr beendet bzw. ist eingestellt, und durch eine Belüftung des Garraums wird die Konzentration von Dampf bzw. Gas oder Feuchte im Garraum zumindest deutlich reduziert. Dies kann eine Reduzierung um beispielsweise die Hälfte sein, vorteilhaft eine starke Reduzierung auf Werte ähnlich der Umgebungsluft. Bei Schritt b) wird nach der Messphase während einer Dampfphase wiederum Dampf in den Garraum eingebracht bzw. das Gargut bedampft, wie es dem Garbetrieb des Dampfgargerätes entspricht. Während dieser Dampfphase unterbleibt eine Auswertung der Sensorik bzw. es wird nicht mehr gemessen, wie es vorteilhaft auch bei Schritt a) ist.During the cooking process, during the cooking process, at least at times, in particular during a measuring phase, a concentration of a gas or moisture emerging from the food or in the cooking space is detected by a sensor such as a gas sensor over time. During the measurement phase, moisture or steam is not introduced into the steam cooking space during the operation of the steam cooking appliance, so that gas or moisture escaping from the food to be cooked can influence the sensor system sufficiently clearly or succinctly for reliable measurement. During this measuring phase, the sensor system or a sensor is evaluated or the measured values are evaluated over time for a specific time. During the measuring phase, the cooking end is determined for a given cooking process with fixed times of the supply of steam or the steam cooking operation by evaluating the sensors over time. In addition, at least the following step a) is performed. In step a), steam is introduced into the cooking chamber or the food to be cooked is steamed before the measuring phase during a vapor phase, as is the case with the cooking operation of the steam cooking appliance. After this vapor phase and again before the measuring phase, the steam supply is completed or is set during a ventilation phase, and by aeration of the cooking chamber, the concentration of steam or gas or moisture in the cooking chamber is at least significantly reduced. This can be a reduction by, for example, half, advantageously a strong reduction to values similar to the ambient air. In step b), steam is again introduced into the cooking chamber after the measuring phase during a vapor phase, or the food to be cooked is steamed, as it corresponds to the cooking mode of the steam cooking appliance. During this Vapor phase is omitted an evaluation of the sensor or it is no longer measured, as it is also advantageous in step a).
Somit ist also im Rahmen der Erfindung sichergestellt, dass während der Messphase bzw. davor noch kein Dampf im Rahmen des Garbetriebs in den Garraum eingebracht worden ist, so dass hier der Einfluss der Feuchte des Garguts maßgeblich ist bzw. von der Sensorik sicher festgestellt werden kann. Wird dann im Rahmen des gewählten Garvorgangs eventuell nach der Messphase das Gargut bedampft, beispielsweise beim Aufbacken von Brötchen, so ist das Garende bereits vorab bestimmt durch Auswertung von Messungen während der Messphase. Dabei wird eben hinsichtlich des Garendes noch das Einbringen von Dampf berücksichtigt. Alternativ wird aufgrund des gewählten Garvorgangs das Gargut bereits vor der Messphase bedampft bzw. Dampf in den Garraum eingebracht. Dann wird während der Belüftungsphase diese Menge an Dampf bzw. eine Dampfkonzentration soweit reduziert, dass aus dem Gargut austretender Dampf bzw. Feuchte von dem Gassensor erkannt werden kann. Es ist auch möglich, sowohl den Schritt a) als auch den Schritt b) durchzuführen, also das Gargut zweimal zu bedampfen.Thus, it is thus ensured in the context of the invention that during the measurement phase or before no steam has been introduced as part of the cooking operation in the cooking chamber, so that here the influence of the moisture of the food is relevant or can be reliably determined by the sensor , If, in the course of the selected cooking process, the food is then steamed after the measuring phase, for example when baking rolls, the cooking end is already determined beforehand by evaluating measurements during the measuring phase. At the same time, the introduction of steam is taken into consideration with regard to the end of cooking. Alternatively, due to the selected cooking process, the food is steamed before the measuring phase or steam in introduced the cooking chamber. Then, during the ventilation phase, this amount of steam or a vapor concentration is reduced to such an extent that steam or moisture emerging from the food to be cooked can be detected by the gas sensor. It is also possible to carry out both step a) and step b), ie to steam the food twice.
Die grundsätzliche Bestimmung des Garendes aufgrund der Messwerte der Sensorik kann erfolgen wie in der
Alternativ kann eine Bestimmung für eine bestimmte Art von Sensorik, die keinen eigenen Gassensor odgl. aufweist, erfolgen wie in der
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann gegen Ende der Messphase bzw. kurz vor deren Schluss, insbesondere wenn das Garende bereits bestimmt worden ist, das Dampfgargerät weiterhin wie bisher betrieben werden. Dies kann eine Art Nachlaufphase der Messphase sein, die entweder zusätzlich ist oder darin enthalten ist. Da wiederum mit dem Gassensor gemessen wird, sollte während dieser Zeit kein Dampf von außen zugeführt werden. Diese Art Nachlaufzeit kann dazu verwendet werden, dass für den Fall des Auftretens einer Störung wie beispielsweise ein Öffnen einer Tür zu dem Garraum die Messergebnisse der Sensorik von dem erwarteten bzw. vorher bestimmten Verlauf stark abweichen oder gestört werden. Das Abklingen dieser Störung kann dann abgewartet werden bzw. dann kann eine erneute Bestimmung des Garendes erfolgen. Weichen während dieser Nachlaufphase die Messergebnisse von dem erwarteten bzw. vorherbestimmten Verlauf nicht wesentlich ab, so kann der Garvorgang wie vorher bestimmt weiterlaufen bis zum Garende.In an embodiment of the invention may at the end of the measurement phase or shortly before the end, especially if the Garende has already been determined, the Dampfgargerät continue to operate as before. This can be a kind of follow-up phase of the measurement phase, which is either additional or included. Again, with the gas sensor being measured, no steam should be supplied from the outside during this time. This type of follow-up time can be used in the event of a fault such as Opening a door to the cooking chamber, the measurement results of the sensors of the expected or previously determined course vary greatly or disturbed. The decay of this disorder can then be awaited or then a re-determination of the Garendes done. If, during this follow-up phase, the measurement results do not deviate significantly from the expected or predetermined course, then the cooking process can continue to run as previously determined until the end of cooking.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann der Fall, dass die Dampfphase gemäß Schritt b) durchgeführt wird, also nach der Messphase noch einmal Dampf zugeführt wird, in der Steuerung entsprechend berücksichtigt werden. Das Garende kann früher herbeigeführt bzw. verkürzt werden, da mit dem Dampf ein weiterer Energieeintrag in das Gargut erfolgt. Dazu kann vorgesehen sein, dass in einer Steuerung des Dampfgargeräts die zugeführte Menge an Dampf bekannt ist und der Energiegehalt dieses Dampfs berechnet wird, beispielsweise auch anhand seiner gemessenen Temperatur. Daraus wiederum kann der sich ergebende Energieeintrag in das Gargut berechnet werden, der von den Temperaturverhältnissen und/oder den konstruktiven Bedingungen im Garraum abhängt.In an embodiment of the invention, the case that the vapor phase according to step b) is performed, so after the measurement phase once again steam is supplied, are taken into account in the control accordingly. The Garende can be brought about or shortened earlier, since with the steam is another energy input into the food. For this purpose, it may be provided that in a controller of the Dampfgargeräts the supplied amount of steam is known and the energy content of this steam is calculated, for example, also based on its measured temperature. In turn, the resulting energy input into the food can be calculated, which depends on the temperature conditions and / or the design conditions in the oven.
Eine Dampfphase, insbesondere gemäß Schritt a), kann 5 bis 15 Minuten dauern. Eine Messphase kann zwischen 5 und 30 Minuten dauern. Vorteilhaft dauert die Messphase so lange bzw. wird so lange durchgeführt, bis ein charakteristischer Punkt oder Abschnitt des Verlaufs der Messwerte bzw. der Auswertung der Sensorik erreicht ist, aufgrund dessen das Garende hinreichend genau berechnet werden kann. Dazu kann vorgesehen sein, dass eine Bedienperson die Art des Garguts in das Dampfgargerät auf beliebige Weise eingibt. Alternativ kann die Art des Garguts aus der Auswertung der Sensorik während der Messphase ermittelt werden, unter Umständen unter Berücksichtigung weiterer Parameter, wie einer von einer Bedienperson eingegebenen Art der Dampfphasen, entweder zu Beginn des Garvorgangs vor der Messphase und/oder nach der Messphase. Auch hierzu wird auf die vorgenannte
Das Dampfgargerät kann ein Belüftungssystem für den Garraum aufweisen, welches es ermöglicht, je nach Fortschritt des Garvorgangs die Luft im Garraum mehr oder weniger schnell bzw. mehr oder weniger stark gegen Umgebungsluft auszutauschen. Dieses Belüftungssystem kann von einer Steuerung des Dampfgargerätes gesteuert sein im Rahmen des vorher bestimmten Garvorgangs sowie evtl. unter Berücksichtigung des während der Messphase bestimmten Garendes. Es kann beispielsweise mit Klappen, Schiebern odgl. versehen sein, die insbesondere elektromotorisch angetrieben sein können.The Dampfgargerät may have a ventilation system for the cooking chamber, which makes it possible, depending on the progress of the cooking process, the air in the oven more or less quickly or more or less exchange with ambient air. This ventilation system may be controlled by a controller of the Dampfgargerätes in the context of the previously determined cooking process and possibly taking into account the determined during the measurement phase Garendes. It can, for example, with flaps, sliders or the like. be provided, which can be driven in particular by an electric motor.
Während einer Dampfphase gemäß Schritt a) ist der Garraum vorteilhaft geschlossen bzw. eine Luftzuführung oder Belüftung des Garraums, insbesondere mit Frischluft aus der Umgebungsluft, ist stark reduziert oder unterdrückt. Hierbei wird im wesentlichen heißer Dampf entsprechend dem Dampfgarbetrieb des Dampfgargerätes zugeführt.During a vapor phase according to step a), the cooking chamber is advantageously closed or an air supply or ventilation of the cooking chamber, in particular with fresh air from the ambient air, is greatly reduced or suppressed. Here, substantially hot steam is supplied according to the steam cooking operation of the steam cooking appliance.
In Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann während der Belüftungsphase das Belüftungssystem des Garraums geöffnet sein bzw. der Garraum kann maximal gelüftet werden. Hierdurch erfolgt ein möglichst schnelles Entfernen des Dampfes aus dem Garraum bzw. eine Reduzierung des Dampfgehalts.In an embodiment of the invention, the ventilation system of the cooking chamber can be open during the ventilation phase or the cooking chamber can be ventilated maximum. This results in the fastest possible removal of the steam from the cooking chamber or a reduction in the vapor content.
In nochmals weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung erfolgt vorteilhaft während der Messphase eine geringe Belüftung des Garraums. Diese kann bei etwa 5% bis 15% einer maximal möglichen Belüftung liegen, so dass hier während der Messphase eine gewisse, für die Bestimmung hinreichend große Menge an Feuchte in dem Garraum entstehen kann, was im zeitlichen Verlauf durch die Sensorik und vor allem durch einen Gassensor erfasst werden kann. Dazu kann das Belüftungssystem des Garraums bzw. des Dampfgargerätes lediglich zu einem kleinen Teil geöffnet sein. Eine zu starke Belüftung würde wiederum zuviel an entstehender Feuchte aus dem Garraum entweichen lassen und eine Messung verfälschen oder unmöglich machen.In yet a further embodiment of the invention advantageously takes place during the measurement phase, a low ventilation of the cooking chamber. These may be about 5% to 15% of a maximum possible ventilation, so that here during the measurement phase a certain, for the determination sufficiently large amount of moisture in the oven can occur, which over time by the sensor and especially by a gas sensor can be detected. For this purpose, the ventilation system of the cooking chamber or the Dampfgargerätes be open only to a small extent. Too much aeration would in turn allow too much moisture to escape from the cooking chamber and falsify a measurement or make it impossible.
Während einer eventuell vor der Messphase erfolgenden Dampfphase gemäß Schritt a), in welcher auch ein Aufheizen des Garraums erfolgen kann, liegt noch keine Notwendigkeit der Erfassung von Messwerten vor. Da eine Bestimmung des Garendes, welche letztlich ein Hauptziel der Erfindung der vorliegenden Anmeldung ist, nur aufgrund der Auswertung der Kurve für den Feuchtverlauf über der Zeit erfolgen kann, müssen hierfür verwertbare Werte vorliegen, wie sie vor allem zu Beginn eines Garvorgangs nicht vorliegen. Um also die notwendige Prozessinformation zu gewinnen zur Bestimmung des Garendes, sollte die Sensorik während der Messphase nicht mehr stark durch äußere Einflüsse gestört werden, so dass keine Änderung des Dampfgehalts erfolgt, welche bei der Auswertung auf einen falschen Zustand schließen lässt. Des Weiteren sollte in dem Garraum aufgrund eines zuvor erfolgten Bedampfens keine allzu hohe Konzentration an Dampf mehr vorliegen, da ansonsten die aus dem Gargut austretende Menge an Feuchte zu gering ist und gegenüber einer vorhandenen Feuchtemenge nicht mehr ausreichend sicher und genau erkannt werden kann.During a possibly occurring before the measurement phase vapor phase according to step a), in which also a heating of the cooking chamber can take place, there is still no need for the detection of measured values. Since a determination of the end of cooking, which is ultimately a main object of the invention of the present application, can only take place on the basis of the evaluation of the curve for the moisture progression over time, there must be usable values for this, as they are not present, especially at the beginning of a cooking process. Thus, in order to obtain the necessary process information for determining the end of cooking, the sensor system should no longer be disturbed by external influences during the measurement phase, so that no change in the vapor content takes place, which indicates an incorrect state during the evaluation. Furthermore, in the cooking chamber due to a previously made steaming no too high concentration of vapor should be present, otherwise the amount of moisture exiting the food is too low and can no longer be sufficiently safe and accurate compared to an existing moisture quantity.

Das Gehäuse 12 weist an seiner Rückseite einen Zugang zu einem Ansaugkanal 21 auf, durch den Frischluft in den Garraum 13 gebracht werden kann. Eine Klappe 22 ist vorgesehen um den Ansaugkanal 21 verschließen zu können. Die Klappen 22 und 23 bilden zusammen ein Belüftungssystem für den Dampfgarer 11, das von der Steuerung 36 gesteuert wird. Dies wird nachfolgend noch genauer erläutert.The
Der Ansaugkanal 21 führt nach der Klappe 22 an einem Wasserbehälter 30 als Wasservorrat mit Wasser 31 vorbei. In dem Wasserbehälter 30 ist eine Heizung 32 angeordnet, um über die Steuerung 36 angesteuert aus dem Wasser 31 Dampf 34 zu erzeugen. Dann wird der Dampf 34 mittels eines Lüfters 24 durch den Ansaugkanal 21 in den Garraum 13 gebracht. Auch der Betrieb des Lüfters 24 wird durch die Steuerung 36 überwacht bzw. gesteuert, insbesondere als ein Teil des Belüftungssystems. Über einen Temperatursensor 38 sowie einen Feuchtesensor 39, der die Sensorik bildet bzw. ein Teil davon ist, können die Betriebsbedingungen im Garraum 13 überwacht werden zur Beeinflussung durch die Steuerung 36.The
Über eine weitere Innenklappe 27, die in Zusammenwirkung mit den Klappen 22 und 23 des Belüftungssystems betrieben werden kann, kann eine Belüftung des Garraums 13 bzw. eine Luftströmung gesteuert werden. Es kann bei geöffneten Klappen 22 und 23 Frischluft von außen mit normalem Wasserdampfanteil zugeführt werden, beispielsweise zur sogenannten Spülung des Garraums 13, um den Dampf 34 aus dem Garraum herauszuspülen. Bei geöffneter Innenklappe 27 und geschlossener Außenklappe 22 kann die Luft im Garraum 13 umgewälzt werden. Dabei ist auch bei dem Umwälzbetrieb die Erzeugung von zusätzlichem Dampf 34 möglich, da auch hier die umgewälzte Luft durch den Ansaugkanal 21 an dem Wasserbehälter 30 vorbeigeführt wird.Via a further
In
Im zeitlichen Verlauf t sind verschiedene Phasen der Feuchte F als zeitliche Abschnitte dargestellt. Während der ersten Zeit bzw. der Dampfphase I kann bei Zubereitung des Garguts 15 im Dampfgarer 11 Dampf 34 eingebracht werden bzw. das Gargut 15 bedampft werden. Dies wird ausgedrückt durch den Dampfbetrieb bzw. den Verlauf der Kurve D, die dünner dargestellt ist als die Feuchte F. Insofern ist es hier auch selbstverständlich, dass während der Dampfphase I der tatsächlich von dem Feuchtesensor 39 im Garraum 13 ermittelte Dampfgehalt bzw. Verlauf der Feuchte abweicht von dem theoretischen Feuchteverlauf F.In the course of time t different phases of the moisture F are shown as temporal sections. During the first time or the vapor phase I, steam can be introduced into the
Während der Dampfphase I sind die Klappen 22 und 23 im wesentlichen geschlossen bzw. es wird wenig Luft von außen zugeführt und unter Umständen wird lediglich durch Öffnen der Innenklappe 27 eine Art Umwälzung vorgenommen. Nach Beendigung der Dampfphase I folgt eine Belüftungsphase II. Hier wird der Dampfbetrieb gestoppt, so dass kein zusätzlicher Dampf in den Garraum 13 eingebracht wird. Während der Belüftungsphase II sind zumindest die Klappen 22 und 23 des Belüftungssystems geöffnet und die Feuchte im Garraum 13 wird durch Betrieb des Lüfters 24 herausgebracht, also der Garraum 13 sozusagen mit Frischluft gespült. Dabei kann die Öffnungsweite der Klappen 22 und 23 von der Steuerung 36 sinnvoll variiert werden. Des weiteren kann entweder der Feuchtegehalt im Garraum 13 aufgrund der vorherigen Dampfphase I reduziert werden, beispielsweise auf die Hälfte, oder die Feuchte kann möglichst vollständig entfernt werden bzw. Umgebungsluft in den Garraum 13 eingebracht werden.During the vapor phase I, the
Nach Beendigung der üblicherweise relativ kurzen Belüftungsphase II beginnt die Messphase III. Hierzu sind die Klappen 22 und 23 großteils geschlossen um eine geringe Luftzufuhr bzw. einen geringen Luftaustausch zuzulassen, beispielsweise mit 5% bis 15% einer maximalen Belüftungsstufe. Dann entspricht der Betrieb des Dampfgarers 11 einem Betrieb eines normalen Backofens, also mit mindestens der Oberhitze 19a und/oder der Oberhitze 19b und ohne Dampfzufuhr.After completion of the usually relatively short aeration phase II, the measurement phase III begins. For this purpose, the
Durch das Reduzieren oder Entfernen der Feuchte von der Dampfphase I im Garraum 13 kann die Menge an Feuchtigkeit, die entsprechend dem Feuchteverlauf F gemäß
Nach Ende der Nachlaufphase III' kann eine zweite Dampfphase IV durchgeführt werden, welche dem vorgenannten Schritt b) entspricht. Hier kann, wie durch den Verlauf für die Bedampfung D dargestellt ist, noch einmal Dampf in den Garraum eingebracht werden zur Bedampfung des Garguts 15. Dies kann erfolgen wie zuvor beschrieben. Auch hierbei ist wieder zu beachten, dass sich damit der Feuchtegehalt im Garraum 13 erheblich ändert gegenüber dem Feuchteverlauf F des Garguts 15 alleine. Da jedoch bereits das Garende bereits vorherbestimmt worden ist während der Messphase III, und dabei auch einkalkuliert worden ist, dass und ob noch einmal eine zweite Dampfphase IV folgt, stört dies nicht. Schließlich wird nach Ende der zweiten Dampfphase IV das Gargut 15 als fertig angesehen und das Garende ist erreicht. Hierbei kann in verschiedenen Ausgestaltungen noch vorgesehen sein, den Garraum 13 zu entlüften, beispielsweise durch erneutes Öffnen der Klappen 22 und 23 und Betrieb des Lüfters 24. Wie aus der vorhergehenden Beschreibung zu entnehmen ist, ist es von Vorteil, wenn zumindest die Klappen 22 und 23 des Belüftungssystems nahezu stufenlos eingestellt werden können zur möglichst stufenlos regelbaren Belüftung bzw. Durchlüftung des Garraums 13.After the end of the follow-up phase III ', a second vapor phase IV can be carried out, which corresponds to the aforementioned step b). Here, as shown by the gradient for the vapor deposition D, once more steam is introduced into the cooking chamber for steaming the
Mit der Erfindung kann also vorteilhaft erreicht werden, dass nicht nur in einem Backofen, sondern auch in einem Dampfgarer 11 eine Bestimmung des Garendes eines Garguts 15 aufgrund des zeitlichen Verlaufs von aus dem Gargut austretender Feuchte F durchgeführt werden kann, obwohl eigentlich eine derartige Feuchtebestimmung in einem Dampfgarer aufgrund starker Dampfentwicklung, zumindest während bestimmter Zeiten des Garvorgangs, nicht möglich ist. Dabei eignet sich das Verfahren sinnigerweise für ein Gargut, welches nicht permanent bedampft werden muss bzw. bei dessen vorgesehener Zubereitung nicht ständig eine hohe Konzentration von Dampf im Garraum vorhanden sein muss, wie beispielsweise Brot, Brötchen oder andere Teigwaren, unter Umständen auch Kuchen. Des weiteren ist darauf hinzuweisen, dass während einer Belüftungsphase II vor der Messphase III nicht zwingend sämtlicher Dampf bzw. sämtliche Feuchte aus dem Garraum zu entfernen ist. Die vorhandene Feuchte ist aber soweit zu reduzieren, dass die aus dem Gargut austretende Feuchte von dem Feuchtesensor 39 ausreichend genau erfasst werden kann, um anhand des theoretischen Verlaufs gemäß
