Definitions
- the present invention relates to a convection oven.
- Convection ovens for heating food items are available in different constructional designs.
- a heating element that is located external to the cavity, and a fan element which feeds heated air from the heating element to the cavity, such as via a shroud that surrounds the cavity.
- a shroud that surrounds the cavity.
- one or more heating elements are provided within the cavity, wherein one or more fan elements is provided at the rear wall of the cavity, be it in a designated fan housing at the interior side of the cavity (as is shown in EP 0 000 908 A1 ), or at the exterior side of the cavity (as is shown in WO 20110/009216 A1 ), so as to provide for an air circulation within the cavity so as to flow the heated air across food items to be prepared in the oven.
- conventional convection ovens comprise a plurality of heating elements, such as a ring-shaped heating element in the center of which there is provided a fan element, which ring-shaped heating element is provided at the interior of the cavity. Further heating elements can be provided at the top and the bottom of the cavity so as to provide top and bottom heat. Whereas the bottom heating element usually is provided externally to the cavity, the top heating element often comprises a heating coil that is located within the cavity below the top wall thereof, which heating coil also can provide for a grill function.
- each heating module comprises an inlet duct mounted at the exterior side of the cavity in flow communication with the cavity via a first aperture in the cavity, an outlet duct mounted at the exterior side of the cavity in flow communication with a second aperture in the cavity, a fan element for withdrawing air from the cavity via the inlet duct and feeding the air back to the cavity via the outlet duct, and at least one heating element for heating the air that is fed to the cavity.
- the convection oven of the present invention employs a plurality of heating modules which each have their own fan element and ducting for providing a recirculating air flow through the cavity, which heating elements thus can be designed for a lower power level and a lower maximum temperature than heating elements used in conventional convection ovens.
- the heating modules further can be provided at different locations about the cavity so as to provide for a more homogeneous and hence more efficient heating of the cavity.
- the inlet and outlet ducts via which air is passed to and from the cavity allow mounting the heating modules at arbitrary locations about the cavity. While the inlet and outlet ducts can comprise flow elements that connect the inlet or outlet of the fan element to respective apertures in a wall of the cavity, the ducts can be dimensioned as desired, so as to provide for a desired distance between the location at which air is withdrawn from the cavity and the location where heated air is blown into the cavity. Furthermore, by providing for respective inlet and outlet ducts, the fan element and the heating element need not be aligned with the apertures in the oven cavity but can be located offset thereto.
- the heating module suggested herein is designed as a modular system, in which fan elements and heating elements of a standardized shape can be combined with inlet and outlet ducts of different shapes, such as straight or curved, and/or with different functions, such as with or without a vent or bleed inlet. Also the fan element and the heating element can be provided in different models, such as to provide for heating modules with different heating capacity by providing for heating elements with different power input.

- the wire coil element can be provided at an inner wall surface of an air channel of the heating module, such as a wall of the inlet duct or of the outlet duct, wherein the wire coil element can be arranged, at least partially, in direct contact with the inner surface of the wall.
- the wire coil element also can be arranged such that it spans a distance between walls of the inlet duct or the outlet duct, and thus may comprise a heating wire that, for example, extends perpendicular to the channel walls.
- the wire coil can be arranged to span the air channel at an oblique angle with respect to the walls of the air channel.
- the wire coil element can be arranged in proximity to the outlet of the outlet duct so that heat is generated at a minimal distance from the cavity.
- a wire coil element could be arranged within the outlet duct a short distance upstream of the outlet end of the outlet duct. While generally the wire coil element also could be arranged so as to project at least partially out of the outlet duct, arranging the wire coil element within the outlet duct has the advantage that any undesired contact with the wire coil element, such as by food items or by a user reaching into the cavity, can be avoided without having to provide for a cover, such as a grid, that projects into the cavity.
- the convection oven of the present invention which uses a plurality of hot air heating modules provides for a substantially lowered power consumption.
- the individual heating modules may be configured for a power consumption of between about 50 W and 500 W, wherein also a combination of heating modules of different power levels can be employed, such as a heating module of 50 W, 100 W or 150 W that is particularly intended for providing for a food warming function but which also assists in other heating functions, in combination with heating modules of higher power, such as 300 W, 350 W, 400 W, 450 W or 500 W which are distributed about the cavity for providing heat for cooking and baking functions. Due to the better efficiency attained by providing for distributed heat sources an oven having for example 6 heating modules of 500 W each, so that the oven has an overall power input of 3000 W, provides for a comparable heating speed as the above conventional oven of 3600 W.
- a combination of heating modules of different power levels can be employed, such as a heating module of 50 W, 100 W or 150 W that is particularly intended for providing for a food warming function but which also assists in other heating functions, in combination with heating modules of higher power, such as 300 W, 350 W, 400 W, 450 W or 500 W which are distributed about
