DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF TI-iF INVENTION
Referring to the drawings and initially to FIGS. 2-8, an oven in accordance with the preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises an oven body 2, a movable tray 20 removably mounted on the oven body 2 and insertable into the oven body 2, at least one adjusting knob 21 mounted on the oven body 2 and located beside the movable tray 20, at least one control knob 210 mounted on the oven body 2 and located under the adjusting knob 21, an atomized device 4 mounted in the oven body 2, and a conveying device 3 mounted on the movable tray 20 and connected with the atomized device 4.
The movable tray 20 has a hollow interior to receive water. The movable tray 20 has an outer surface provided with a handle 201 to facilitate a user pulling the movable tray 20 outward from the oven body 2. The movable tray 20 is located at an upper end of the oven body 2. The adjusting knob 21 is used to adjust and control the operating time and temperature of the oven body 2. The control knob 210 is used to manually control the spraying interval and times of the nanometer water at a high temperature.
The conveying device 3 is located at a side of the movable tray 20 and includes a first line 30 connected with the movable tray 20 and a connecting member 31 connected with the first line 30.
The atomized device 4 includes a heater 41, a second line 40 mounted on the heater 41 and having a first end connected with the connecting member 31 of the conveying device 3, and a nozzle 42 connected with a second end of the second line 40 and connected to an internal chamber 22 of the oven body2.
The heater 41 of the atomized device 4 has two electrically heating elements 411 (FIG 5) connected with two conducting wires 412 which are connected to a power supply (not shown). The second line 40 of the atomized device 4 is wound around the heater 41. The first end of the second line 40 is provided with a connector 401 detachably connected with the connecting member 31 of the conveying device 3. Preferably, the connector 401 of the second line 40 is flared outward and has a horn shape (FIG 7) so that the connector 401 of the second line 40 is connected with the connecting member 31 of the conveying device 3 easily and quickly. The nozzle 42 of the atomized device 4 is mounted on an inner wall of the oven body 2 and has a surface provided with at least one spraying hole 420 (FIG 8a).
In operation, when the movable tray 20 is inserted into the oven body 2 as shown in FIG 2, the connecting member 31 of the conveying device 3 is connected with the connector 401 of the second line 40 as shown in FIG. 7 so that the second line 40 of the atomized device 4 is connected to the movable tray 20 through the first line 30 of the conveying device 3. In such a manner, when the second line 40 of the atomized device 4 is heated by the electrically heating elements 411 of the heater 41 to reach a high temperature, the air in the second line 40 is expanded and evaporated so that the inner space of the second line 40 is disposed at a vacuum state to produce a vacuum suction force. Thus, the water in the movable tray 20 is forced by the vacuum suction force of the second line 40 to flow through the first line 30 of the conveying device 3 into the second line 40 of the atomized device 4. When the temperature in the second line 40 of the atomized device 4 reaches a predetermined value (about 400°C), the water in the second line 40 of the atomized device 4 is atomized instantaneously to have a nanometer size, and the atomized water in the second line 40 of the atomized device 4 is injected outward from the nozzle 42 of the atomized device 4 and is sprayed into the internal chamber 22 of the oven body 2. Thus, the atomized water from the nozzle 42 of the atomized device 4 is sprayed on and wets the food placed in the internal chamber 22 of the oven body 2 to keep the food at a determined moisture so that the food will not be dried, hardened or burned due to the high heat during the broiling process of the oven body 2 and will be kept fresh.
At this time, the nozzle 42 of the atomized device 4 is provided with a plurality of spraying holes 420 to prevent the food in the oven body 2 from directly contacting with the nozzle 42 of the atomized device 4. In addition, the atomized water from the nozzle 42 of the atomized device 4 is sprayed and distributed on the food evenly and smoothly by provision of the spraying holes 420.
As shown in FIGS. 2 and 8, the control knob 210 is used to control the spraying interval and times of the atomized water. Preferably, the control knob 210 is connected with a program to preset the spraying interval and times of the atomized water so as to control the atomized water automatically.
S Alternatively, the control knob 210 is directly pushed and controlled by the user in a manual manner.
As shown in FIG. 9, the adjusting knob 51 is mounted on the oven body 5 and located above the movable tray 50, and the control knob 510 is mounted on the oven body 5 and located under the adjusting knob 51. The movable tray 50 has a hollow interior to receive water. The movable tray 50 has an outer surface provided with a handle 501 to facilitate a user pulling the movable tray 50 outward from the oven body 5. The movable tray 50 is located at a lower end of the oven body 5. The adjusting knob 51 is used to adjust and control the operating time and temperature of the oven body 5. The control knob 510 is used to control the spraying interval and times of the atomized water at a high temperature. In addition, the oven further comprises a safety device (not shown) mounted on the oven body 2 to interrupt the power supply of the oven body 2 when the oven body 2 is not opened or when the movable tray 50 is not inserted into the oven body 2 so as to provide a safety function.
Accordingly, the nozzle 42 of the atomized device 4 can spray the atomized water outward which wets the food placed in the oven body 2 to keep the food at a determined moisture so that the food in the oven body 2 will be kept wet and fresh and will not be dried, hardened or burned due to the high heat in the oven body 2 during the broiling process so as to enhance the taste of the food.
Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment(s) as mentioned above, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the scope of the present invention. It is, therefore, contemplated that the appended claim or claims will cover such modifications and variations that fall within the true scope of the invention.
