Serial No. 61/331,894 filed on May 06, 2010 and entitled "Industrial Baking Pan with Channel Band," the disclosure of which is hereby incorporated by reference herein in its entirely, as if fully rewritten herein,
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
[0002] The present invention relates generally to baking pans and trays for industrial and commercial use, and more specifically to a baking tray that includes a reinforcing perimeter band having a novel geometry for imparting structural strength and stability to the tray.
[0003] Baking pans or trays are commonly used by producers of various baked goods that are supplied to restaurants and grocery stores. Because producers of baked goods often supply large quantities of baked goods to their customers, the trays such goods are baked on are reused many times and are repeatedly subjected to both high thermal and mechanical stresses. Baking pans are often stacked on top of one another, and it is common for a stack of baking pans to include more than fifty pans. Stacking pans in this manner creates significant pressure on the bottom pan in a stack, and the weight on the bottom pan may be 500 pounds or more. Thus, repeated use and repeated exposure to high temperatures and mechanical stress requires that an industrial baking tray be manufactured from a durable material such as steel or aluminum. Although manufacturing a baking tray from materials such as steel or aluminum does increase the lifespan of the tray repeated use, re-glazing, or other physical or chemical stressors eventually weakens the metal of the tray and cracks or fractures may appear in the metal surface of the tray. Once a tray has sustained such damage, it is no longer useable and must be discarded. Due to the expense of replacing industrial baking trays, additional features may be included to lend strength and stability, particularly when the tray is large in size.
[0004] One approach to adding strength and durability to large baking trays or pans has been the inclusion of a rigid metal band that is positioned around the entire upper edge of a baking tray or pan and held in place by rolling the top edge of the tray or pan outward and downward to partially or completely enclose the metal band. While effective for increasing the overall strength of the tray or pan, this metal band, which is typically solid steel, can add significant and undesirable weight to each tray or pan. Additionally, the use of such metal reinforcing bands may necessitate greater energy input with regard to reaching the temperatures required for effective and complete baking. To reduce weight and the energy input required when using industrial baking trays and pans, there is an ongoing need for a lightweight, yet effective structural reinforcement that is compatible with such items.

[0013] FIGS. 3A-B are cross-sectional side views of alternate embodiments of the contoured reinforcing band.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0014] Exemplar}' embodiments of the present invention are now described with reference to the Figures. Although the following detailed description contains many specifics for purposes of illustration, a person of ordinary skill in the art will appreciate that many variations and alterations to the following details are within the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the following embodiments of the invention are set forth without any loss of generality to, and without imposing limitations upon, the claimed invention. With reference now to the Figures, one or more specific embodiments of this invention shall be described in greater detail.
[0015] As shown in FIGS. 1-2 and 3A-B, an exemplary embodiment of baking tray assembly 10 includes baking tray 20 and contoured reinforcing band 40. Baking tray 20 further includes a horizontal bottom surface 22, an outwardly angled sidewall surface 24 surrounding bottom surface 22, and a vertical side wall surface 26 formed above angled sidewall surface 24. Contoured reinforcing band 40 is positioned around the outer perimeter of vertical sidewall surface 26, the top portion of which is rolled downward to create lip 28 for enclosing and securing contoured reinforcing band 40. In the exemplary embodiment shown in the Figures, contoured reinforcing band 40 includes first portion 42, second portion 44, and third portion 46. First portion 42 defines a first inward-facing lengthwise channel, second portion 44 defines an outward-facing lengthwise channel, and third portion 46 defines a second inward-facing channel. Due to its high strength to weight ratio, the unique multiple s-shaped cross-sectional geometry of contoured reinforcing band 40 provides baking tray 20 with adequate structural strength and stability while using only a portion of the material found in solid bands of a similar nature. Both tray 20 and contoured reinforcing band 40 may be fabricated from carbonized steel, aluminum, stainless steel, or any other suitable metal. The dimensions of the perimeter band may vary depending on the overall dimensions and physical characteristics of a particular type of tray (see FIG. 3B, wherein the width of the outward-facing lengthwise channel has been increased).
[0016] Baking assembly 10 provides numerous benefits including: (i) lowered heat retention in contoured reinforcing hand 40, which permits the baking tray or pan to cool more rapidly, thereby allowing for a faster cycling of the baking process; and (ii) increased energy efficiency with regard to the amount of energy required to heat the tray or pan in an oven during baking, i.e. the decreased mass of contoured reinforcing band 40 reduces the total amount of energy required to heat baking tray assembly 10. Both of these issues are significant concerns in commercial baking processes and this invention provides a novel solution to problems arising from these concerns.
[0017] Certain embodiments of this invention include products referred to as the "e-pan" due to energy savings associated with use of the pan, The e-pan is usually made from steel that is more than twice the strength of that used in prior baking pans. Despite the increased strength, the thinness of this material results in a pan that is about 30% lighter than the current industry standard. Inclusion of contoured reinforcing band 40, as opposed to a solid steel band, typically reduces the weight of the tray by another 15%. Other versions of this invention include commercial products that are marketed as the "e2", which may include additional energy saving or efficiency increasing features.
[0018] While the present invention has been illustrated by the description of exemplary embodiments thereof, and while the embodiments have been described in certain detail, it is not the intention of the Applicant to restrict or in any way limit the scope of the appended claims to such detail. Additional advantages and modifications will readily appear to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the invention in its broader aspects is not limited to any of the specific details, representative devices and methods, and/or illustrative examples shown and described. Accordingly, departures may be made from such details without departing from the spirit or scope of the applicant's general inventive concept.
