Definitions

  • the invention relates to a self-cleaning oven for cooking food, and to a cleaning method for a self-cleaning oven.
  • ovens For cooking of food, it is well-known to use ovens. However, when cooking food in an oven, the oven chamber is exposed to soiling based on spills and leftovers from the food cooked inside the oven chamber. Manual cleaning of the oven chamber is laborious and introduces the possibility of damaging parts of the oven, for example due to use of an inadequate cleaning agent or cleaning device.
  • ovens with self-cleaning capability have been established, wherein said self-cleaning ovens perform self-cleaning based on pyrolysis, that is by reducing food soiling to ash by means of exposing the latter to a predefined pyrolysis temperature, for example 500° C for a certain self-cleaning time period, normally about one hour to 1.5 hours. After the oven chamber has cooled down, the burned leftovers/ash can be removed from the oven chamber or can be removed by a filter.
  • the self-cleaning time period is constant, wherein the time period has to be defined as being long enough to provide adequate cleaning in case of heavy soiling of the oven chamber. Consequently, the constant self-cleaning time period reflect a maximum time span necessary for removing heavy soiling, and does not reflect the actual degree of soiling of the oven chamber. As self-cleaning is performed at high temperatures, heating the oven chamber to the predefined pyrolysis temperature results in high power consumption.
  • the oven chamber shows a soiling degree below or even far below a soiling level for which the constant self-cleaning time period is defined, such that the oven chamber usually is heated longer than necessary for removing the actual soiling, and energy is wasted without having any effect on the cleaning result.
  • US 6,437,294 B2 and US 5,286,943 A1 teach to set the pyrolysis temperature and/or the self-cleaning time period based on a type of soiling determined with respect to measurement results of a gas sensor disposed in an exhaust duct of the oven.
  • the output of the gas sensor changes based on a chemical reaction of a catalyst material of the sensor with combustion gases being produced during pyrolysis, such as short-chained hydrocarbons and hydrogen molecules, in particular carbon monoxide.
  • a catalyst material of the sensor with combustion gases being produced during pyrolysis, such as short-chained hydrocarbons and hydrogen molecules, in particular carbon monoxide.
  • the aforementioned method requires comparatively complex and expensive sensor equipment, and the sensors have to be exchanged after a certain amount of chemical reaction of the catalyst has occurred.
  • a self-cleaning oven for cooking food comprising an oven chamber for receiving food to be cooked, a heating unit for heating the oven chamber to a predetermined temperature, a control unit for controlling the heating unit, and a sensor system for detecting presence of smoke in the oven, wherein the control unit is adapted to determine a self-cleaning time period based on the sensor system output.
  • the self-cleaning oven is characterized in that the sensor system is adapted to determine optical conditions within the oven that are indicative of the smoke level in the oven chamber based on measurement data of an optical sensor.
  • Cooking according to the present invention comprises any kind of preparation of food in the oven.
  • baking, broiling and heating food in the oven is considered to be cooking the food.
  • optical conditions which are indicative of the smoke level may be a change of the amount of smoke in the oven chamber or the difference to a reference value. These conditions are determined based on measurement data of the optical sensor and will hereinafter also simply be referred to as optical conditions.
  • the measurement data which can also be referred to as measurement or measurement value can be the light intensity, the amount of light or a greyscale value.
  • Obtaining the measurement value can also be referred to as detecting of light, in particular light intensity or amount of light, or a greyscale value.
  • determining the self-cleaning time period is understood to include predefining a duration of the self-cleaning operation, in particular a duration of heating the oven chamber by the heating unit.
  • the expression further includes the mere definition of an end point of heating the oven chamber after the self-cleaning process has already been initiated.
  • the determining of the self-cleaning time period includes updating and/or adapting a (predefined) duration based on additional output of the sensor system.
  • the self-cleaning oven can comprise a comparatively simple and robust design. Moreover, the operating life of the sensor is not limited, as no chemical reaction is necessary for providing adequate measurement results.
  • the optical sensor provides reliable data for determining the presence and change of the amount of smoke inside the oven chamber, as the output of the optical sensor may be substantially proportional or inversely proportional to the amount of smoke and/or a respective level of darkening in the oven chamber.
  • the optical sensor is arranged in the oven chamber, preferably at an oven chamber wall, more preferably a side wall or an upper wall of the oven chamber.
  • the optical sensor can be arranged in an exhaust duct of the oven chamber which is arranged to conduct air and/or smoke out of the oven chamber.
  • the sensor system may comprise a light source.
  • the light source is an integral light unit of the oven chamber or a further light unit, preferably an LED, provided separately to an integral light unit of the oven chamber.
  • the integral light source denotes a light source which is provided to illuminate the oven chamber during normal cooking operation.
  • the optical sensor may be a light sensor.
  • the optical sensor is a photodetector, and particularly preferably a photodiode, wherein the light sensor is adapted to detect light emitted by the light source.

In this case, smoke inside the oven chamber may block light rays emitted by the light source such that the detected luminance at light sensor is reduced compared to a clean oven chamber when no smoke is present.
  • the optical sensor may be a camera.
  • the sensor system and/or the control unit are adapted to determine the optical conditions within the oven that are indicative of the smoke level by evaluation of the camera data.

For example, the self-cleaning time period can be determined by comparing the subsequent measurements with a first measurement. If the most recently obtained measurement value is higher than the first measurement value, then the self-cleaning temperature will be maintained. If the measurement value is similar or even lower than the first measurement value, then heating unit can be switched of or at least the temperature generated by the heating unit can be reduced to cooking temperature.
  • the sensor system may be adapted to determine an initial reference value of the light sensor prior to heating the oven chamber upon triggering of a self-cleaning operation.
