Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for producing oven muffles, an oven muffle and an oven comprising such oven muffle.
  • Ovens and particularly ovens for domestic use usually are designed to have standard dimensions so that the oven can be used in a kitchenette or built-in kitchen, in which the individual components such as cabinets and devices usually are provided with certain dimensions.
  • most ovens for domestic use are designed to have an overall width of 60 cm, wherein some manufacturers also offer ovens with a width of 90cm.
  • this object is solved by a method for producing oven muffles, wherein a muffle door, a muffle top wall, two opposing muffle sidewalls and a muffle rear wall is provided, wherein said muffle sidewalls are provided with means for supporting food preparation trays at a plurality of discrete heights by alternatively integrally forming a plurality of tracks in the muffle sidewalls, or by providing for each muffle sidewall a tray rack comprising a plurality of tracks and providing means for attaching said racks to said muffle sidewalls, and wherein said muffle rear wall is connected to the muffle floor, the muffle top wall and the muffle sidewalls.
  • a dimensioning and shaping is selected for the components of the oven muffle such that the clear width for insertion of trays at the tray support means of opposing muffle sidewalls is independent of the choice selected for the manner for providing the muffle sidewalls with means for supporting food preparation trays.
  • the components of the oven muffle are designed such that the clear width for insertion of trays at the tray support means of opposing muffle sidewalls is independent of the type of tray support means.
  • the oven muffle in which the means for supporting food preparation trays are provided by integrally forming a plurality of tracks in the muffle sidewalls, the oven muffle generally thus will have a slightly smaller width than in conventional ovens, the concept suggested herein provides for substantial cost savings, because one and the same food preparation tray can be used independently from the type of tray support means.
  • such tracks when integrally forming tracks in the muffle sidewalls, such tracks preferably are formed by deep-drawing a plurality of elongated plateaus, which are raised towards the interior of the oven muffle, wherein the clearance between adjacent plateaus defines the tracks.
  • at least one additional plateau can be formed in the muffle sidewall, the height of which plateau corresponds to the extent by which the tray rack narrows the clear width between opposing muffle sidewalls.
  • oven muffles for ovens which differ only by the type of tray support means i.e. for oven muffles of product variants of one and the same oven, preferably the same muffle floor, the same muffle top wall and the same muffle rear wall are used.
  • the manufacturing costs for the oven muffles can be kept at a minimum, because also for producing ofen muffles comprising different types of tray support means only one type of muffle floor, one type of muffle top wall and one type of muffle rear wall has to be produced.
  • the clear width of such oven muffle generally could be adapted to that of a corresponding oven muffle comprising a tray rack, by providing for correspondingly higher plateaus between the individual tracks.
  • said additional plateau provided by integrally forming a plurality of tracks in the muffle sidewall preferably has a height which corresponds to the diameter of the round stock used for the tray rack.
  • the additional plateau compensates the restriction in the clear width for insertion of tray as it caused by the tray rack comprising sections where a tray which is inserted into the oven muffle has to pass any bars which rest against the muffle sidewall, such as a vertical bar which connects the bars forming the track.
  • the muffle sidewalls are provided with tray racks, preferably means are provided for removably attaching the racks to the muffle sidewalls, so that the racks can be taken out of the oven muffle for cleaning purposes.
  • the racks can be provided with means to hook the rack into the muffle sidewall.
  • openings can be provided in the muffle sidewall, where the rack can be hooked in by means of bar sections which project from the tray rack towards the muffle sidewall.
  • Oven muffle 10 shown in FIG. 1 comprises a muffle floor 12, a muffle top wall 14, two opposing muffle sidewalls 16 and a muffle rear wall 18, which are arranged to form a muffle cavity which is open at its front side where in the fully assembled oven an oven door is located.
  • Muffle rear wall 18 is connected to muffle floor 12, muffle top wall 14 and muffle sidewalls 16, for example, by welding.
  • Oven muffle 10 is formed of sheet metal which preferably is formed by deep drawing. At least the interior surfaces of the oven muffle are provided with a heat- and corrosion-resistive coating, such as an enamel layer, which provides a hard protective surface layer which further facilitates cleaning of the oven muffle.
  • a heat- and corrosion-resistive coating such as an enamel layer
  • muffle sidewall 16 is substantially flat.
  • muffle sidewall 16 is provided with a tray rack 20 which comprises five tracks where a food preparation tray can be inserted into the oven muffle.
  • Rack 20 is made of metal bars such as stainless steel or the like and comprises two vertical bars 22 and 24 and for each tray position two horizontal bars 26 between which the lateral edge of a tray can be held.
  • tray rack 20 is provided with four projections, which in the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 are provided at the upper horizontal bar 42 of the central tray rack as well as at the two ends of the rear vertical bar 24.
  • the projection and the upper end of vertical bar 24 has been designated by reference sign 28.
  • Muffle sidewall 16 is provided with respective openings which accommodate the projections of tray rack 20 when mounted to the muffle sidewall.
  • the projection at the front end of the upper horizontal bar 42 of the central track is accommodated within an opening 30 which is provided near the front edge of muffle sidewall 16.
  • FIG. 2 shows an embodiment of an oven muffle, in which muffle sidewall 32 is provided with a plurality of tracks, which are integrally formed in muffle sidewall 32, for example by deep drawing. Tracks 34 are provided within a plateau 36, which extends over the majority of muffle sidewall 32 and which has been formed by providing, preferably by deep-drawing, for a stepped bend 38 which extends about the perimeter of muffle sidewall 32.
  • FIG. 3 shows a cross-section of the oven muffle shown in FIG. 1 .
  • tray rack 20 when tray rack 20 is attached to muffle sidewall 16, vertical bar 22 of tray rack 20 rests against the inner side of muffle sidewall 16, wherein a projection 40 which for the example shown in FIG. 3 is an extension of the upper horizontal bar 42 of the central tray rack, is inserted through an opening 30 provided in muffle sidewall 16.
  • tray rack 20 narrows the clear width for insertion of trays between the opposing muffle sidewalls by a distance 44 which in the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 3 corresponds to the diameter of the round material of which the tray rack 20 is made.
  • FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a conventional oven muffle in which a plurality of tracks 46 is formed in a muffle sidewall 48. Tracks 46 are formed by deep drawing a plurality of plateaus 50, which are raised towards the interior of the oven muffle, wherein the clearance between adjacent plateaus 50 defines the tracks 46.
  • the clear width for insertion of trays corresponds to the width of the oven muffle in regions where no plateaus 50 are provided, such as in the regions above and below the tray support region.
  • FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of oven muffle 52 shown in FIG. 2 .
  • oven muffle 52 comprises a plurality of tracks 54 which are formed by providing a plurality of plateaus 56.
  • a double bend 38 is formed about the tray support region so as to form plateau 36, in which then plateaus 56 are formed so as to provide tracks 54.
  • the height 58 of plateau 36 corresponds to the distance 44 by which tray rack 20 narrows the clear width for insertion of trays.
  • FIG. 2 shows an embodiment wherein the muffle floor 60 and the muffle rear wall 62 have a different design then the respective elements 12 and 18 of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1
  • the dimensions of muffle sidewall 52 of the FIG. 2 embodiment are identical to those of muffle sidewall 16, the same muffle floor, the same muffle top wall and the same muffle rear walls can be used for providing both the flat cavity design shown in FIG. 1 and the molded cavity design shown in FIG. 2 . In this manner, substantial savings in manufacturing costs can be achieved.
