Abstract
An oven (1) for cooking/heating up miscellaneous foods. The oven (1) has at least one internal cavity (2) with a set of walls (3, 4, 5, 6, 7) and at least one wall of the internal cavity (2) is made of carbon steel coated by an alloy made of Zinc, Aluminum and Silicon. A kitchen oven includes a set of burners and at least one domestic oven (1) as described above, and the domestic oven (1) is disposed under the set of burners.
Description
- The present invention refers to an oven and, more specifically, a domestic oven for cooking/heating up miscellaneous foods.
- The present invention also refers to a kitchen oven that comprises the aforementioned oven.
- Ovens are domestic and industrial utensils that are rather well-known and essential for preparing food. Individual ovens, i.e. those in which there is just the cooking cavity, are known, as are ovens that are part of kitchen ovens, having one or more burners that are combined with an oven, the latter generally disposed underneath the kitchen oven top.
- An oven's cooking cavity, in turn, generally comprises a parallelepipedal format with five fixed walls, one of the sides having a removable wall, such as a door, through which it is possible to gain access to the inside of the cavity. The walls may also comprise a thermal coating in order to prevent dissipation of the heat generated inside the cavity, as well as an opening to remove the gas and heat generated in the cavity, in order to offset the internal temperature and pressure.
- In the same way, different sources of radiation may be used to generate heat inside the oven cavity or directly in the food, such as but not limited to burning gas, use of electrical resistance, generating microwaves, hot steam, etc. Also, more than one source of heat may be associated in the same oven, such as a combination of a gas oven with electrical resistance, a microwave oven with electrical resistance, etc.
- The domestic kitchen ovens for cooking food known in the state of the art comprise a set of burners at the top and at least one oven underneath said burners.
- It is known that the material used in the oven's internal cavity directly influences its durability and performance, mainly with regard to corrosion resistance, thermal reflectivity and consumption, which is directly influenced by the oven's operating efficiency.
- In particular, the internal cavity of currently known ovens is normally built from steel, which has an enameled coating in order to prevent corrosion. Generally speaking, the upper wall (top) and the lower wall (base) of the oven's internal cavity are coated with an enamel with a smooth texture that is easy to clean, preferably of the smooth vitrified type, also known as “easy clean”. Moreover, the side walls of the oven's internal cavity normally have an enameled coating with a rough, porous surface, which is capable of absorbing grease so as to dispense with the need for cleaning.
- That kind of coating is consequently also known as “self-cleaning”. One should note that the rear wall (back) may be of both the “easy clean” type and also of the “self-cleaning” type, depending on the oven's type and application.
- However, in spite of the fact that these known coatings provide the oven with functional and aesthetic benefits, they require an additional stage in the production process, enameling, which raises the oven's manufacturing costs, which is obviously undesirable.
- There is thus a need for a technical solution for ovens' internal cavities, which is capable of simultaneously providing durability, performance and low production cost.
- Therefore, one objective of the present invention is to provide an oven for cooking/heating food that is capable of eliminating or at least reducing the limitations of known technologies in the state of the art.
- In addition, a further objective of this present invention is to provide a domestic oven, in particular for cooking/heating up food, which presents enhanced resistance to corrosion at high temperatures compared with ovens known in the state of the art.
- Another objective of the present invention consists of providing a domestic oven, in particular for cooking/heating up food, which presents an enhanced thermal reflectivity index compared with ovens known in the state of the art.
- Moreover, another objective of the present invention consists of providing a domestic oven, in particular for cooking/heating up food, which presents more efficient operation, so as to provide lower gas consumption compared with ovens known in the state of the art.
- It is also an objective of the present invention to provide a domestic oven, in particular for cooking/heating up food, with a construction layout that dispenses with the enameling stage on at least one wall of the internal cavity, allowing the reduction of at least one of the stages of production and, consequently, a reduction in production costs.
- Lastly, it is also an objective of the present invention to provide a kitchen oven that comprises the aforementioned oven.
- One or more of the aforementioned objectives of the present invention, among others, is/are achieved through an oven with at least one internal cavity provided with a set of walls, at least one wall of the internal cavity comprising carbon steel coated by an alloy made of Zinc, Aluminum and Silicon.
- In accordance with additional or alternative embodiments of the oven of the present invention, it may also comprise the following characteristics, alone or in combination:
- the set of walls comprises an upper wall, a lower wall, a rear wall and side walls;
- the wall of the internal cavity that comprises carbon steel coated by said alloy made of Zinc, Aluminum and Silicon is the upper wall;
- said alloy comprises between 35% and 50% of Zinc;
- said alloy comprises between 50% and 60% of Aluminum;
- said alloy comprises between 1% and 2% of Silicon;
- said alloy comprises between 35% and 50% of Zinc, between 50% and 60% of Aluminum and between 1% and 2% of Silicon;
- said alloy comprises 43.5% of Zinc, 55% of Aluminum and 1.5% of Silicon.
- This present invention also refers to a kitchen oven that comprises a set of burners and at least one oven as described above, the oven being disposed under said set of burners.
