Abstract
Description
- The present invention refers to an improved kind of oven for cooking food, preferably intended for home use, comprising a laterally opening door for gaining access into and closing the cooking cavity of such oven.
- While reference is specially made throughout the following description to a food cooking oven of the built-in type, it will nevertheless be appreciated that what is being explained, illustrated and generally set forth in the same specification shall be understood as equally applying to - and thus used in - food cooking oven that is integrated in a free-standing cooking appliance that includes both a cooking oven and a cooking surface, i.e. a cooktop.
-
DE 20 2004 003 999 U1 describes a locking device for a door of a domestic appliance, especially of a baking oven, consisting of a bar which is pressed by spring forces into a locking position within a bar housing at the door or at the housing of the baking oven which bar interacts with a latching element at the housing or at the door in a latching manner, wherein the bar comprises a V-formed profile with asymmetrically differently inclined surfaces for the latching element. - The ovens, which the present invention refers to, are largely known as such in the art, as they are for instance described in the
European patent application no. 07107936.2 - The actual problem addressed and solved by the present invention concerns the possibility for the oven door to sink relative to, or either prove difficult to Initially move Into a perfectly lined-up, well-centered relationship with the aperture of the cooking cavity, which it Is intended to close.
- It may in fact occur that the door is assembled in such manner as to cause it to be poorly centered, in the sense that it turns out to be slightly inclined on the horizontal plane; this would of course give rise to the practical drawback deriving from the fact that the matching parts forming the door lock, i.e. the door locking parts or members, which are due to come into a perfect mutual alignment between the side edge of the door and the corresponding side edge of the cooking cavity of the oven, turn eventually out as being out of alignment relative to each other and this gives rise to clear difficulties when trying to close the door, or even makes it plainly impossible for the same door to be closed at all.
- In a still worse case, it may occur that such out-of-alignment condition of the oven door takes place in the field, where the oven has been used for a certain time, thereby making it necessary for a serviceman to be called in view of having the problem removed by restoring the aligned condition of the door.
- Known from the disclosure in the German utility model no.
DE 20 2004 003 995 U1 is a solution aimed at ensuring the centered condition of a laterally hinged oven door by means of one or more appropriately shaped supports provided along the lower edge of the access aperture into the cooking cavity. - Although effective, such solution has however a couple of main drawbacks, i.e.:
- a first drawback derives from the fact that such supports are made up by kind of "wedges", or shims, lying exposed to the sight of the user; this generates a clear impression of precariousness and poor quality, which is of course a particularly undesired fact in the case of ovens that are sold on the market as even quite sophisticated appliances capable of combining various different cooking modes, provided with advanced electronic programming and control means, featuring an elaborate stylish design, and so on;
- a second drawback lies in the fact that the above-cited solution may even occur to eventually prove or become inadequate, since said supports can in fact be quite easily removed and, anyway, for them to be able to work in the intended the intended manner, they must intervene on, i.e. interfere with the closing travel of the door when the latter is still sufficiently open, thereby proving of hindrance to and braking the final part of the closing motion of the door.
- It would therefore be desirable, and it is actually a main purpose of the present invention, to provide an oven for food cooking applications provided with a side-hinged door, in which the above-noted drawbacks are effectively done away with, and in which the parts making up the door lock arrangement are reliably allowed to automatically move into mutual alignment when the door is being closed.
- According to the present invention, these aims, along with further ones that will become apparent from the following disclosure, are reached in a kind of food cooking oven provided with a sidewise opening door that incorporates the features and characteristics as defined and recited in the appended claims.
- Advantages and features of the present invention will anyway be more readily understood from the description that is given below by way of non-limiting example with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:
-
Figure 1 is a perspective outer view of a half-open oven door and the related devices according to the present invention; -
Figure 2 is an outer perspective view of a side of a first device according to the present invention; -
Figure 2A is an exploded view of the parts making up the device shown inFigure 2 ; -
Figures 2B and2C are median horizontal cross-sectional views of the device shown inFigure 2 in two operative states thereof, respectively; -
Figures 3 is a respective view of a second device according to the present invention, as shown in two different outer perspective views thereof; -
Figure 4 and the associated enlarged outsert are outer perspective views of the devices according to the present invention, as shown in the phase during which the door is being closed, however prior to its being fully shut; -
Figures 5A ,5B and5C are views of the devices according to the present invention in three successive operative states thereof, respectively; -
Figures 6A ,6B and6C are median horizontal cross-sectional views of the devices to the present invention in the states as they are shown in the correspondingFigures 5A ,5B and5C , respectively; -
Figures 7 and8 are plan elevational views from a point located inside the cooking cavity, i.e. from the inner side of the door, of the two corresponding positions of the door illustrated inFigures 5A ,6A andFigures 5C ,6C , respectively. - With reference to
Figure 1 , a food cooking oven according to the present invention comprises acooking cavity 1 capable of being closed by adoor 2 that is hinged on an upright side edge (not shown) thereof, and - a) a recessed catching or
locking device 30 located on the front upright side edge 3 of the cooking cavity, which most obviously lies opposite to the upright side edge on which the door is hinged, and - b) an engagement or
latching device 4 attached to theouter side edge 5 of the door and adapted to engage said catching or locking device to retain the same door in the closed condition thereof. - With reference to
Figures 2 ,2A ,2B and2C , the above-cited engagement orlatching device 4 comprises a fixedmember 6 that is firmly joined to saidside edge 5 of the door, and alatch 7 that is capable of elastically sliding in a housing or accommodation provided within said fixedmember 6 in a manner largely known as such in the art. - Said
latch 7 can take, i.e. move into a plurality of different positions, among which a first position, as illustrated inFigure 2B , in which said latch is substantially introduced in said fixedmember 6, and a second position, as illustrated inFigure 2C , in which said latch is substantially protruding with an outer portion thereof, which shall be illustrated and described in greater detail further on. - With reference to
Figures 4 ,5A ,5B ,5C , said recessed locking or catching device comprises in turn an outer portion and an inner portion; the outer portion has a bottom orlower surface 8, which is accessible from outside, and which is so positioned as to feature anouter edge 9 and aninner side 10 opposite thereto, wherein said surface has a substantially triangular shape and is inclined on the horizontal plane with a descending slope from saidinner side 10 towards saidouter edge 9 opposite thereto; the area above saidinclined surface 8 is void, since it is due to accommodate thelatch 7 as it fits thereinto. - From said
inner side 10 there rises a verticalplanar surface 11 that delimitates said upper zone, into which thelatch 7 is due to fit, at both sides thereof. Thelatch 7 itself may be provided in a variety of different shapes. As shown inFigures 2 ,2B and2C , however, it is advantageously in the shape of a wedge, with anupright corner edge 12 dividing two opposite uprightplanar sides - The inward facing
side 13 is so oriented as to be able to couple in an almost parallel manner with saidplanar surface 11, so that, as the door is being closed, it is pressed by said surface with a substantially orthogonal force, thereby facilitating its being inserted in the fixedmember 6. - With reference to
Figures 5A ,5B ,7 and8 , thelower side 15 of saidlatch 7 is a planar one and is arranged at such height, relative to saidinclined bottom surface 8, as to cause saidlower side 15 of thelatch 7 to come into interference with saidinclined bottom surface 8 when the door is being closed; as a reaction thereto, the entire latch is urged upwards and, as a result, such reaction is passed on to the fixedmember 6 and, from the latter, to the whole door, thereby raising it to the desired extent, i.e. by the desired amount. - It will be appreciated that the just described devices shall of course be so positioned relative to each other - as far as their height is concerned - as to ensure that, when the door is positioned in the correct manner, said latch is able to fit into said upper zone, or void space above the bottom surface, and the inward facing
side 13 thereof couples up with said uprightplanar surface 11 without any interference occurring therewith, since there is no need in this case for the inclination of the door to be corrected, actually. Quite at the contrary, if the door is undesirably inclined downwards with its edge 3, then the afore-cited interference would enable the required correction to automatically occur by a pre-established amount, i.e. to a pre-established extent, while this would anyway take place solely in the final phase of the door closing travel (Figures 5B ,5C ,7 ). - Basically, and with particular reference to
Figures 5B and8 , the present invention is based on the fact that, with the above-described configuration, the lower extremities of aninner recess 20 and anupright corner edge 22 are positioned at the same height as the highestinner point 16 of saidinclined surface 8. - The inner portion of said locking or catching device has an outwardly
opening recess 20 that is sized and positioned so that, when the door is brought into its fully closed position, said latch is able to correctly fit into it and engage it in a stable and firm manner. - To such purpose, the outward facing
upright side 14 of said latch is in turn oriented so that, when inserted in saidrecess 20, it couples up in an adequately angled manner with theside 21 of the same recess that is facing the front side of the oven, as this is clearly illustrated inFigure 6C ; it should in fact be suitably reminded that the force needed for the door to be released and pulled open most obviously depends not only on the force of reaction of thespring 31, but also on the extent of the angle "n" comprised between the tangent line "a" meeting said outward facingside 14 and the straight line "b" extending orthogonally to the radial straight line "r" between the hinging axis of the same door and the point of contact of saidsides - This improvement has the purpose of ensuring that - once the latch is fully inserted in said recess 20 - the same latch is firmly and stably retained therein and, at the same time, the possibility is given for it to be released and removed from said recess by normally pulling the door, so as to enable the latter to be opened.
- The orientation of said
inner side 21 of therecess 20 and the outward facingside 14 of the latch shall of course be such as to allow for a force to be exerted in a direction that will cause the latch to be inserted in the fixedmember 6 by simply pulling the door into opening. - In order to ensure that the
latch 7 is able to fit into saidrecess 20 immediately upon the inclination of the door having possibly been corrected, between saidupright surface 11 and saidrecess 20 or, better, saidside 21 there is advantageously provided an adequately narrow upright corner edge 22 (Figures 3 ,7 ,6A-6C ); this is effective in ensuring that, upon the inclination of the door having possibly been corrected, thelatch 7 engages therecess 20 immediately, thereby preventing the door from inclining downwards again.
On a peripheral portion of the cooking cabinet is fixedly mounted a door opening frame on which is pivotally mounted a hock-operating lever in a lover- end portion of which is slidably mounted one end of an hook-operating rod, the other end of it being brought into contact with the pivotal hook member of the cabinet door.-
