Embodiment Construction

[0022]Referring initially to FIG. 1 of the drawing, depicted therein is an example food heating system 20 constructed in accordance with, and embodying, the principles of the present invention. The example food heating system 20 defines a food heating chamber 22 (FIGS. 2-5), an access port 24 (FIGS. 1, 2, 4, and 5), and an exhaust port 26 (FIGS. 6 and 8).

[0023]Food to be heated is placed into the food heating chamber 22 through the access port 24. The food heating system 20 heats food within the heating chamber for one or more of the following purposes: warming, cooking, and dehydrating.

[0024]The example food heating system 20 comprises a housing assembly 30 comprising an outer housing assembly 32 defining a main chamber 34 and an inner housing assembly 36 defining the food heating chamber 22. The inner housing assembly 36 is rigidly connected to the outer housing assembly 32 and arranged within the main chamber 34. The housing assembly 30 further comprises a door member 40, a cover...
