Definitions

  • the present invention regards an oven for cooking foods according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the present oven is inserted in the field of the production of ovens, in particular ovens of professional type, and is adapted to be advantageously employed in the foodservice, gastronomy, pastry-making and bakery fields.
  • the present oven is intended to be advantageously used in a professional setting for the simultaneous cooking of foods arranged in multiple pans arranged on top of each other.
  • ovens for professional use are known on the market; such ovens conventionally comprise a load-bearing structure with box-like shape which at its interior delimits a cooking chamber into which the foods to be cooked are intended to be introduced.
  • the load-bearing structure comprises a lower wall, an upper wall and two lateral walls, which together delimit the aforesaid cooking chamber.
  • the load-bearing structure also comprises a bottom wall placed to close the rear of the cooking chamber.
  • the load-bearing structure is at the front provided with an access opening to the cooking chamber in order to allow the introduction of the foods to be cooked in the cooking chamber and to extract such foods from the latter upon completed cooking.
  • a door is provided that is hinged to the load-bearing structure and actuatable to close the access opening during the cooking of the foods.
  • the foods to be cooked are intended to be inserted in the cooking chamber, arranged within multiple pans positioned on top of each other over multiple levels and supported for example by a pan rack trolley.
  • the oven also comprises heating means adapted to heat the air within the cooking chamber, and one or more fans (in particular of centrifugal type) each of which arranged within the cooking chamber and actuatable for generating a hot air flow that circulates in the cooking chamber itself in order to cook the foods in a uniform manner.
  • each fan is positioned at the bottom wall of the load-bearing structure and is fixed to a horizontal rotation shaft mechanically connected to an electric motor actuatable in order to rotate the fan itself.
  • the heating means of the oven for example comprise an electrical heating element with circular shape and arranged around the corresponding fan in order to heat the air flow generated by the fan itself.
  • the oven comprises a separation panel arranged within the cooking chamber and positioned in front of the fans in a manner such to delimit, with the bottom wall of the load-bearing structure, a space within which the fans and the electrical heating elements are positioned.
  • the separation panel is provided with one or more suction openings, each arranged in front of the corresponding fan in order to allow the passage of the air suctioned by the fan itself.
  • the separation panel is provided with two lateral edges, e.g. bent, which delimit two delivery openings with the lateral walls of the load-bearing structure.
  • the air flow generated on the delivery line by the fans exits in order to be distributed within the cooking chamber in which the foods to be cooked are arranged.
  • each fan when each fan is rotated, it axially suctions the air through the corresponding suction opening of the separation panel and radially expels the pressurized air, in a manner such that the air flow intercepts the electrical heating element, absorbing the heat thereof, and is then propagated within the cooking chamber in order to bring the heat to the foods to be cooked.
  • the trays positioned at the height of the suction openings are subjected to an air flow having flow rate much higher than those of the air flows that affect the pans arranged far from the suction openings. Consequently the foods arranged in the pans positioned in front of the suction openings undergo a precocious cooking with respect to the foods arranged in the other pans, with consequent non-uniformity of cooking of the foods which can cause an excessive cooking of some foods and an insufficient cooking of other foods.
  • the problem underlying the present invention is therefore to overcome the abovementioned drawbacks by providing an oven for cooking foods which allows uniformly cooking foods arranged at different levels within the cooking chamber, in particular ensuring that such foods at different levels are subjected to air flows having substantially the same flow rate.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide an oven for cooking foods that is entirely reliable in operation.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide an oven for cooking foods capable of operating with high energy efficiency.
  • a further object of the present invention is to provide an oven for cooking foods that is structurally simple and inexpensive to make.
  • reference number 1 overall indicates an example of the oven for cooking foods, object of the present invention.
  • the oven 1 is intended to be used, in particular in a professional setting, in the foodservice, gastronomy, pastry-making and bakery fields, and in general in the field of cooking foods.
  • the oven 1 comprises a support structure 2 preferably provided with an external framework 3 with substantially box-like shape and having an openable front side.
  • the oven 1 comprises a door 4 which is hinged to the support structure 2 and is movable for opening and closing the front side of the external framework 3.
  • the support structure 2 comprises a containment body 5 (preferably arranged within the external framework 3) which defines a cooking chamber 6 within which the foods to be cooked are intended to be arranged.
  • the containment body 5 is provided with a front opening 7 for the access to the cooking chamber 6, arranged preferably at the front side of the external framework 3 of the support structure 2 of the oven 1.
  • the door 4 of the oven 1 is movable between a closed position, in which it obstructs the front opening 7 of the containment body 5, and an open position, in which the front opening 7 is free of (i.e. not obstructed by) the door 4 in order to allow the introduction and the extraction of the foods into and from the cooking chamber 6.
  • the containment body 5 in particular with box-like shape, is provided with an upper wall 8 and with a lower wall 9, preferably parallel to each other, and between which the cooking chamber 6 is extended height-wise.
  • the containment body 5 is provided with a supporting wall 10, which is placed to connect between upper wall 8 and the lower wall 9 and is preferably positioned as a rear closure of the containment body 5, in particular facing the front opening 7 of the latter.
  • the containment body 5 comprises two lateral supporting walls 11, parallel to each other and facing, between which the cooking chamber 6 is extended width-wise.

  • the fan 12 is actuatable for generating at least one air flow within the cooking chamber 6 adapted to uniformly distribute the heat within the cooking chamber 6 itself.
  • the oven 1 comprises multiple fans 12, e.g. two, arranged at different heights within the cooking chamber 6.
  • the oven 1 can also comprise only one fan 12, or even more than two fans 12, without departing from the protective scope of the present patent.
  • the supporting wall 10, at which each fan 12 is arranged is placed as a rear closure of the containment body 5.
  • the supporting wall on which each fan 12 is positioned is obtained with one of the lateral supporting walls 11 of the containment body 5.
  • each fan 12 is adapted to be fixed to a corresponding rotation shaft 13, aligned with the rotation axis X of the fan 12 itself, rotatably constrained to the support structure 2 and arranged in particular to cross through the supporting wall 10 with axis orthogonal to the latter.
  • the oven 1 is advantageously provided with movement means 14 mechanically connected to the corresponding fan 12 in order to make it rotate around the rotation axis X.
  • the movement means 14 preferably comprise an electric motor 15, which is mechanically connected to the rotation shaft 13 of the corresponding fan 12 and is actuatable in order to rotate the rotation shaft 13 for the purpose of moving the fan 12.
  • the movement means 14 are mounted on the supporting wall 10 of the containment body 5 outside the cooking chamber 6.
  • each fan 12 is extended along its rotation axis X between a rear side, directed towards the supporting wall 10, and an opposite front side through which the fan 12 is adapted to suction the air.
  • the fan 12 is provided with a peripheral side, which is extended around the rotation axis X between the front side and the rear side and through which fan 12 is adapted to convey the air flow on the delivery line.
  • the fan 12 is positioned with its rear side adjacent to the supporting wall 10.
  • the fan 12 comprises a support plate placed to at least partially close the rear side of the fan 12 itself.
  • the support plate carries a hub centrally fixed thereto, and such hub is fixed to the rotation shaft 13 actuatable for moving the fan 12.
  • the fan 12 preferably comprises multiple blades arranged around the rotation axis X and in particular projectingly fixed on the support plate.
  • the blades of the fan 12 are arranged around the rotation axis X equidistant from the latter, preferably along a circular trajectory, and are in particular regularly distributed around the rotation axis X itself.
  • the blades are separated from each other by delivery slits made along the peripheral side of the fan 12, and through such delivery slits the air is radially insufflated under pressure, as described in detail hereinbelow.
  • the oven 1 comprises heating means 16 in operation associated with the cooking chamber 6 in order to heat the air within the latter.
  • the heating means 16 are at least partially arranged in the cooking chamber 6, and are adapted to intercept the air flow generated on the delivery line by the fan 12 in order to heat the air itself.
  • the heating means 16 of the oven 1 comprise at least one electrical heating element 17 with substantially circular shape and arranged around the peripheral side of the fan 12, in a manner so as to intercept the air that exits under pressure from the delivery slits of the fan 12 itself, in order to transfer the heat to the air so as to heat it.
  • the heating means 16 comprise a gas burner provided with one or more radiant tubes arranged within the cooking chamber 6 alongside the fans 12 or around the latter in order to intercept the air that exits from the delivery slits of the fans 12 themselves.
  • the oven 1 comprises a dividing separator 18, which is extended in the cooking chamber 6 between the upper wall 8 and the lower wall 9 of the containment body 5 according to an extension direction Y preferably parallel to the supporting wall 10 and orthogonal to the upper wall 8 and to the lower wall 9 themselves.
  • the dividing separator 18, which is preferably fixed to the containment body 5, separates the cooking chamber 6 into a ventilation space 19, which is extended between the supporting wall 10 and the dividing separator 18 and in which the fans 12 and preferably the heating means 16 are arranged, and a cooking space 20, which is extended preferably between the dividing separator 18 and the front opening 7 of the containment body 5 and in which the foods to be cooked are intended to be arranged.
  • the foods are intended to be arranged in the cooking space 20 of the cooking chamber 6 positioned in multiple pans arranged on top of each other at different heights along the height of the cooking chamber 6 itself.
  • the pans are supported for example by a pan rack trolley or by shelves projecting into the cooking space 20 from the lateral supporting walls 11 of the containment body 5.
  • the dividing separator 18 is provided with at least one suction opening 21 through which the fans 12 are adapted to suction the air flow from the cooking space 20 towards the ventilation space 19, and advantageously with at least one delivery opening 23, through which the air flow emitted on the delivery line by the fans 12 passes from the ventilation space 19 to the cooking space 20.
  • the dividing separator 18 is provided with multiple aforesaid suction openings 21 which are distributed in succession at least along the extension direction Y.
  • the suction openings 21 of the dividing separator 18 are distributed along the extension direction Y of the latter substantially along the entire height of the cooking chamber 6.
  • the suction openings 21 of the dividing separator 18 are distributed along the extension direction Y in a manner such that the dividing separator 18 has spatially-variable resistance to the flow at least along the extension direction Y itself.
  • the resistance to the flow of the dividing separator 18 decreases in moving away from the rotation axis X of each fan 12.
  • the aforesaid configuration of the suction openings 21 of the dividing separator 18 allows making the flow rate of the air flow into the cooking space 20 substantially uniform along the entire height of the latter and, therefore, making the flow rate of the air flow uniform at the different levels at which the pans containing the foods to be cooked are intended to be arranged.
  • Such foods therefore, even if arranged at different levels along the height of the cooking space 20, receive an amount of heat from the air flow that is substantially equal with respect to each other, therefore ensuring a uniform cooking of the foods themselves.
  • the configuration of the suction openings 21 involves higher resistance to the air flow of the dividing separator 18 at the zones of the cooking space 20 at the same height as the fans 12, limiting the amount of air suctioned by the fans 12 in such zones, while the dividing separator 18 has lower resistance to the air flow at the zones of the cooking space 20 at heights different from those of the fans 12, involving lower resistance to the suction of the fans 12 at the latter zones.
  • each fan 12 tends to generate a flow with higher flow rate in the zone in front of it and with smaller flow rate in the zones at different heights
  • the higher resistance to the air flow of the dividing separator 18 in front of the fans 12, and the lower resistance to the air flow of the dividing separator 18 in the zones at different heights cause a flow with flow rate substantially uniform along the entire height of the cooking space 20.

  • the suction openings 21 can have circular or undulated shape.
  • each fan 12 suctions the air from the front side thereof (such air reaches the fan 12 by passing through the corresponding passage opening 27 of the separation wall 24), bringing into reduced pressure conditions the distribution interspace 32 delimited between the separation wall 24 and the distribution wall 28. Consequently, the air is suctioned from the cooking space 20 into the distribution interspace 32 through the suction openings 21 of the distribution wall 28, generating an air flow into the cooking space 20 itself.
  • the air enters from the distribution interspace 32 into the ventilation space 19 through the passage openings 27 and is suctioned by the front side of the fans 12.

Then the heated air returns into the cooking space 20, passing through the delivery openings 23 of the dividing separator 18.
  • the heating means 16 e.g. the electrical heating elements 17
  • the greater resistance to the air flow of the dividing separator 18 in the first sections 18' in front of the corresponding fans 12 causes a load loss between the distribution interspace 32 and the cooking space 20, at such first sections 18', which is greater than the load loss (between the distribution interspace 32 and the cooking space 20) at the second sections 18" of the dividing separator 18 having lower resistance to the flow.
  • the reduced pressure generated by each fan 12 is distributed in a uniform manner along substantially the entire extension of the distribution interspace 32 along the extension direction Y and hence along the entire height of the cooking chamber 6, therefore generating an air flow which crosses through the cooking space 20 (and which enters into the suction openings 21 of the dividing separator 18) having substantially uniform flow rate along the entire height of the cooking space 20 and hence over all the levels of the trays in which the foods to be cooked are arranged, ensuring a uniform cooking thereof as discussed above.
  • the lateral delimitation of the distribution interspace 32 given by the lateral walls 38 of the dividing separator 18 allows ensuring that the air suctioned by the fan 12 enters into the distribution interspace 32 substantially exclusively through the suction openings 21, allowing the efficient obtainment of the variable resistance to the air flow that allows ensuring the desired uniformity of the air flow in the cooking space 20.
