Description

A TRANSPARENT COOKER WITH REMOVABLE SURFACES
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a transparent cooker designed to enable homogeneous cooking and visibility of its interior during cooking.
Prior Art
The ovens cooking food products by transferring the heat generated in a separate section in the oven to the cooking section by means of a fan are referred to as convectional ovens. In convectional ovens, elements such as tray level, preheating temperature, and the temperature of the product to be cooked (the product being freshly prepared or taken from a refrigerator) are important for ideal cooking.
However, a limited window area is left in convectional ovens to see the cooking compartment. It is a major problem to view all sides of particularly the larger food products from this window area. The capability to view the cooking food products consists a significant criterion in buying decisions of customers. However, the producers intend to keep this area limited due to technical limitations. There are transparent ovens designed for this purpose.
Cooker appliances are present which have all of its surfaces transparent, in which the heat required for cooking is provided by using metal oxide based transparent film heater applied on all surfaces. In general, the heating system in such appliances are described as follows: Metal oxide based, electrically conductive material with optical properties which is also capable of acting as a resistor, is applied to a surface of a glass by means of PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) or similar coating methods. Heat dissipates by the coating on the glass surface exhibiting its electrical resistor characteristics, after applying said coating on a transparent surface and coupling its electrical connections.
The steps executed in coupling said metal oxide based film heater with electrical connections is as follows: conductive adhesive with silver content is spread on the edge of the glass surface being coated, and copper sheet is placed on said adhesive.
When electricity is connected by wire to any region of the copper sheet, electricity flows onto the coating from the copper sheet. The material for the sheet acting as a bridge between the electricity wires and the coating, is opted as copper due to its good electrical conductivity. Heat dissipates on the glass surface as the coating exhibits resistance against electricity. The obtained electrical power values vary according to the thickness of the coating. The food product in the cooker appliance is enabled to be cooked by means of the heat obtained in this manner.
In cooker appliances operating by such type of an application, in order to prevent heat from escaping the oven, an additional glass other than the film heater coated glass and polymer based transparent material, or only vacuumed glass is used.
State of the art Japanese patent document no. JPH10292940 mentions assembling an oven, a cooking range and a grate on top of each other, and connecting their exhaust outlets to a single stack in order to avoid the air pollution occurring during the operation of said systems. The developed solution addresses a different problem.
State of the art Chinese patent document no. CN102889743 mentions a multi-functional connection between a refrigerator, an oven and a cooking range. The oven and the cooking range are designed so as to be assembled above and below the refrigerator. The developed solution addresses a different problem.
State of the art European patent document no. EP2351503 mentions making barbecue in an oven. The developed solution addresses a different problem.
State of the art Chinese utility model document no.CN202078172 mentions storing the heat in an oven thanks to a heat source placed below a grate, and using said heat in a grate and a cooking range. The developed solution addresses a different problem.
State of the art Chinese patent document no. CN102889743 mentions a barbecue function in a microwave oven. The developed solution addresses a different problem.
None of the state of the art documents include a solution similar to the one in the present invention.
Brief Description of the Invention
The aim of the present invention is to obtain a cooker with multiple functions.
Another aim of the present invention is enabling any surface of a transparent cooker to be removed and used such as a cooking range, grate, or a warm keeping apparatus.
Another aim of the present invention is to eliminate space occupation problem likely to occur due to purchasing products such as an oven, cooking range, warm keeping apparatus and a grate individually, thanks to combining all of these in a single product.
Detailed Description of the Invention
In order for a portion thereof to be removed and used as a cooking range or a grate, the transparent cooker of the invention comprises,
  • glass surfaces forming a main body by being joined so as to form a quadrangular prism,
  • electric wires to heat the heater film coated glass surfaces by electric connection,
  • at least one electrical hookup connector provided at the ends of the electric wires, and
  • at least one main power cable to connect to the electrical hookup connector.
The transparent cooker of the invention has metal oxide based heater film coated surfaces. The heater film coated surfaces are heated by electrical connection. The food products in the appliance are enabled to be cooked by using the film coating's characteristic of dissipating heat by exhibiting resistance to electricity. The transparent cooker has glass surfaces forming a quadrangular prism shape, and the cooker is formed by joining said glass surfaces. The heater film coated glass surfaces are designed such that any of them can be optionally removed from the appliance by being easily detached.
A main power cable is provided, supplying electricity to the transparent cooker appliance. Said main power cable with a socket structure can be easily detached from the cooker. After removal from the appliance, any surface of the cooker appliance is prepared for being operated as a separate product, by engaging the main power cable detached from the cooker appliance, to the electrical hookup connector provided at an end of the electrical wires on said surface.
The cooker appliances with glass surfaces coated with transparent heater film, allows any surface of said cooker to be removed and to be used as a cooking range or a grate, by means of having metal oxide based film coating on each surface, and each surface having discrete electrical wires, thereby enabling heater power to be controlled independently.
