    illustrates a schematic sectional side view of the cooking oven with the camera according to a second embodiment of the present invention.
  • FIG 1 illustrates a schematic sectional side view of a cooking oven 10 with a camera 26 according to a first embodiment of the present invention.
  • The cooking oven 10 comprises an oven cavity 12, an oven door 14 and a front panel 16. The oven door 14 is arranged at the front side of the cooking oven 10 and provided for opening and closing the oven cavity 12. The front panel 16 is arranged above the oven door 14.
  • Further, the cooking oven 10 comprises a housing 18 enclosing partially the oven cavity 12. In this example, the cooking oven 10 is arranged in a furniture 20. In general, the cooking oven 10 may be arranged within an arbitrary niche.
  • Moreover, the cooking oven 10 comprises a cooling fan 22 arranged above the oven cavity 12. The cooling fan 22 generates a cooling airflow 24. A first of said cooling airflow 24 is sucked in above the front panel 16 into the space between the housing 18 and the furniture 20. The first part of the cooling airflow 24 passes the top side of the housing and reaches the cooling fan 22. A second part of the cooling airflow 24 is sucked in beneath the oven door 14 into the space between the housing 18 and the furniture 20. The second part of the cooling airflow 24 passes the bottom side and the rear side of the housing 18 and reaches the cooling fan 22. The cooling airflow 24 is blown out between the oven door 14 and the front panel 16 by the cooling fan 22.
  • The camera 26 is attached at the housing 18. In this example, the camera 26 is arranged in the upper rear portion of the housing 18. The camera 26 is spaced from the oven cavity 12. The cooling airflow 24 passes the camera 26, in particular the electronic components of said camera 26. The camera 26 has a direct connection to the cooling airflow 24. The cooling airflow 24 provides convective heat transfer from the camera 26 to the air. For example, a tube, e.g. an aluminium tube, may be arranged between the cooling fan 22 and the camera 26 in order to improve the intensity of the cooling airflow 24 at said camera 26.
  • An optical system 28 is arranged between the camera 26 and the oven cavity 12. In this example, the optical system 28 includes three optical lenses 30. The material of the optical system 28 has a low heat conductivity, a low thermal capacity and a low mass. Thus, the optical system 28 avoids that too much heat would be transferred from the oven cavity 12 to the camera 26.
  • Preferably, the spaces between the optical lenses 30 are hollow. The shapes of the optical lenses 30 depend on the type of the camera 26, in particular on the type and size of the optical sensor of said camera 26.
  • Additionally, the cooking oven 10 comprises a protection shield 32. Said protection shield 32 is arranged in front of the optical system 28. For example, the protection shield 32 is fastened by a bayonet catch. The protection shield 32 is easily removeable. The protection shield 32 can be cleaned outside of the cooking oven 10 by the user. Preferably, the protection shield 32 includes double, triple or more layer glass. For example, the one or two layers arranged closer to the optical system 28 are coated by an infrared-reflecting coating. The layer arranged toward the oven cavity 12 may be coated by a coating, which is easy to clean, e.g. an oleophobic and/or hydrophilic coating. Between the first and second layers beside the oven cavity 12 a vacuum insulation may be provided. In contrast, between the second and third or further layers an air flow may be generated in order to avoid heat transfer to the optical system 28. Moreover, the protection shield 32 may be moved by a slider, wherein during said movement a razorblade or the like may clean the surface of the protection shield 32 by scraping the dirt off.
