Problems solved by technology

[0006] However, even with a combination of microwaves and air flow, the limitations of traditional microwave cooking in penetrating food may still make the combination less than ideal
Also, typical microwaves are somewhat indiscriminate or uncontrollable in the way they apply energy to food

Embodiment Construction

[0034] Some example embodiments will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which some, but not all, example embodiments are shown. Indeed, the examples described and illustrated herein should not be construed as limiting the scope, applicability, or configuration of the present disclosure. Rather, these exemplary embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will satisfy applicable legal requirements. The same reference numbers refer to the same elements throughout. Furthermore, as used herein, the term "or" should be interpreted as a logical operator that results in true whenever one or more of its operands is true. As used herein, operably coupled should be understood to refer to direct or indirect connections, which in either case enable functional interconnection of components that are operably coupled to each other. Furthermore, as used herein, the term "browning" should be understood to refer to the Maillard reaction...

Abstract

The oven may include a cooking chamber configured to receive food, a convection heating system configured to provide heated air into the cooking chamber, a radio frequency (RF) heating system configured to provide RF energy into the cooking chamber using solid state electronics. system, and control electronics configured to control the convection heating system and the RF heating system. The control electronics may also control a user interface configured to define one or more consoles. At least one console may enable a user to select a cooking program. The user interface may also provide a single indicator showing a graphical representation of current progress relative to a representation of the overall time elapsed to complete the selected cooking program. The single indicator may also provide a selectable operator operable to control progress towards completion of the selected cooking program.

Description

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS [0002] This application claims priority to US Application No. 62 / 428,014, filed November 30, 2016, and US Application No. 15 / 812,077, filed November 14, 2017, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference in their entirety Incorporated herein. technical field [0003] Exemplary embodiments relate generally to ovens and, more particularly, to ovens that enable cooking of food by applying airflow and radio frequency (RF) energy within an oven cavity. Background technique [0004] Combination ovens capable of cooking using more than one heat source (eg, convection, steam, microwave, etc.) have been used for decades. Each cooking source has its own unique set of characteristics. Therefore, combination ovens can generally take advantage of each of the different cooking sources in an attempt to provide a cooking process that is improved in terms of time and / or quality. [0005] In some cases, microwave cooking can be...
