Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a cooking oven with an apparatus for detecting the three-dimensional shape of food stuff on a food stuff carrier according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the measuring of the three-dimensional shape of food stuff inside the oven cavity can be used for the calculation of the temperature in the core of the food stuff and as an input for an automatic cooking program.
  • the measuring of the three-dimensional shape of food stuff can be realized by a camera and a laser.
  • the camera and the laser have to be positioned in such places, which are cool enough, in order to insure the function ability and a long lifetime of the camera and laser.
  • the positions of the camera and the laser should result in an angle between the optical axis of the camera and the laser beam, which angle allows a sufficient accuracy of the triangulation between the laser, food stuff and camera.
  • the food stuff should be moved under the laser beam or the laser beam should be moved over the food stuff in a reproducible and smooth way.
  • the changes of the oven structure for installing the measuring equipment should be minimized.
  • WO 2010/012340 A1 discloses a cooking oven for automatic heating procedures.
  • the cooking oven comprises a camera and a laser.
  • the camera and the laser are positioned at the upper side of the chamber opening.
  • the laser is inclined by a predefined angle.
  • the laser emits a fan-shaped laser beam and the camera records continuously top views of the baking tray.
  • the speed or the shift of positions of the baking tray has to be detected or predetermined, in order to create a three-dimensional model of the food stuff.
  • CN 101059338 A discloses a method for measuring the position of a carbonization chamber in a coal coke charring room.
  • a camera, a laser and a reference body are used.
  • the speed or the shift of positions of the moved objects has to be detected or predetermined.
  • JP 2001099615 A discloses a three-dimensional object shape measuring instrument.
  • a camera and a laser are moveable inside the oven chamber. The movement of the camera and laser as well as the evaluation require a complex controller.
  • CN 101059338 A discloses a cooking oven with a detection part for detecting the position of a food-holding component, so that the user is informed, if the food-holding component is correctly placed inside the oven chamber.
  • a one-dimensional sensor detects the distance between the top wall of the oven chamber and the food-holding component.
  • the cooking oven comprises a drawer, wherein the camera is arranged at a top portion of a vertical part of said drawer, and wherein the food stuff carrier is arranged at the vertical part and/or on a horizontal part of said drawer, and wherein the laser is arranged behind a front frame of the oven cavity, and wherein the food stuff carrier and the camera are mechanically coupled, so that the camera and the food stuff carrier are synchronously moveable.
  • the main idea of the cooking oven according to the present invention is the moveable camera and the stationary laser, wherein the camera is mechanically coupled to the food stuff carrier, in particular baking tray, and the laser is arranged above the oven cavity. Since the camera and the baking tray are coupled, the distance between the camera and the food stuff is constant, so that the detection of the three-dimensional shape of the food stuff is independent of the speed of the food stuff carrier, when said food stuff carrier is moved into the oven cavity.
  • the cooking oven with the apparatus can be realized by low complexity and low costs.
  • the cooking oven comprises a drawer, wherein the camera is arranged at a top portion of a vertical part of said drawer, and the food stuff carrier is arranged at the vertical part and/or on a horizontal part of said drawer.
  • the combination of the drawer and the apparatus contributes that the inventive cooking oven may be realized by low complexity and low costs.
  • the vertical part of the drawer is formed as an oven door.
  • the oven door as vertical part of the drawer contributes also the low complexity of the cooking oven.
  • the camera is arranged inside a top portion of the oven door.
  • the camera is protected from heat and dirt.
  • the laser Since the laser is arranged behind a front frame of the oven cavity, in this position the laser can easily be kept cool.
  • the front frame may comprise at least one hole for the laser beam.
  • the angle between the central axis of the field or range of vision of the camera and the laser beam is between 30° and 60°, preferably about 45°.
  • FIG 1 illustrates a schematic sectional side view of a drawer oven with an apparatus for detecting the three-dimensional shape of food stuff according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
  • the drawer oven comprises a stationary oven cavity 10 and a moveable drawer 12.
  • the drawer 12 is moveable into the oven cavity 10 along a horizontal direction.
  • the drawer 12 includes a vertical part 14 and a horizontal part 16.
  • the vertical part 14 of the drawer 12 forms an oven door.
  • the horizontal part 16 of the drawer 12 is movably arranged within a lower portion of the oven cavity 10.
  • the drawer 12 comprises a baking tray 18 for receiving food stuff.
  • the baking tray 18 is attached at the vertical part 14 of the drawer 12.
  • the baking tray 18 may be attached at the vertical part 14 of the drawer 12 and/or on the horizontal part 16 of the drawer 12.
  • the baking tray 18 extends substantially within a horizontal plane.
  • a camera 20 is arranged at a top portion of the horizontal part 16 of the drawer 12.
  • a field of vision 22 of the camera 20 is directed onto an upper side of the baking tray 18.
  • the field of vision 22 of the camera 20 covers substantially the whole upper side of the baking tray 18.
  • the camera 20 is arranged inside the vertical part 14 of the drawer 12, i.e. inside the oven door.
  • the place of the camera 20 can be kept cool enough without high complexity.
  • a laser 24 is arranged upon an upper front portion of the oven cavity 10.
  • the laser 24 is arranged behind a front frame of the oven cavity 10. In this position the laser 24 can be kept cool by low complexity. Since the laser 24 is arranged outside the oven cavity 10, it is protected from heat and dirt. Further, the laser 24 can be cleaned easily.
  • a laser beam 26 from the laser 24 is directed downwardly. Through a hole in the front frame of the oven cavity 10 the laser beam 26 can be projected over the whole width of the baking tray 18.
  • angle ⁇ of about 45° between a central axis 28 of the field of vision 22 of the camera 20 on the one hand and the direction of the laser beam 26 on the other hand.
  • the angle ⁇ of about 45° between the laser beam 26 and the central axis 28 allows a good resolution of the triangulation measurement between the camera 20, the laser 26 and the foodstuff.
  • the laser 24 forms the stationary part of the apparatus for detecting the three-dimensional shape of food stuff.
  • the camera 20 and the baking tray 18 form the mobile part of the apparatus for detecting the three-dimensional shape of food stuff. Since the camera 20 and the baking tray 18 are fixed at the drawer 12, the distance between the camera 20 and the food stuff is constant. Thus, the detection of the three-dimensional shape of the food stuff is independent of the speed of inserting the drawer 12 into the oven cavity.
  • a coupling between the baking tray 18 and the camera 20 is provided, wherein the drawer 12 is not necessary.
  • the coupling between the baking tray 18 and the camera 20 may be realized by arbitrary mechanical equipment, so that the movement of the camera 20 depends on the movement of the baking tray 18. Further, the movement of the camera 20 may be driven by a motor in dependence of the position of the baking tray 18.
  • another food stuff carrier can be used instead of a baking tray for instance a grid or plate.
