Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The invention relates to an oven with an oven muffle on which at least one support is arranged on opposite sides and / or on a rear wall, on which support a cooking goods carrier is supported, and on which at least one support a holding section is arranged which prevents lifting of the cooking goods carrier. BACKGROUND

[0002] DE 10 2010 038 607 A1 discloses an oven in which a cooking goods carrier is held in a movable manner via two telescopic guides. The cooking goods carrier comprises protruding bars on opposite sides which can be latched onto a curved plate. This latching prevents accidental lifting of the cooking goods carrier, which can only be lifted by a specific release force which exceeds the holding force of the latching mechanism. This holding device is disadvantageous because the position of the bars on the cooking goods carrier and the latching mechanism have to match one another, which makes assembly more difficult and also makes it difficult to accommodate cooking goods carriers of different sizes. SUMMARY

[0003] It is therefore an object of the invention to provide an oven which ensures that the cooking goods carrier is fixed against lifting, in particular by tilting movement, in a simple manner.

[0004] This object is achieved by an oven according to one aspect of the invention.

[0005] In the oven according to the invention, a holding device is provided which fixes the cooking goods carrier against lifting, wherein the holding device comprises a movable holding section which engages over the edge of the cooking goods carrier in the position in which the cooking goods carrier is placed on the support. The movable holding section can thus be used to fix the cooking goods carrier against lifting, in particular when the cooking goods carrier is pulled out into a tilted position. The cooking goods carrier does not have to be actively latched onto a locking mechanism for fixing, but can be fixed by placing it on the support without any additional effort.

[0006] Preferably, the holding device surrounds the edge of the cooking goods carrier in the storage position in a U shape in a front view. This allows the cooking goods carrier to be fixed in place via the holding device, whereby the cooking goods carrier can be moved smoothly in the insertion direction. In this case, the lower support surface can be arranged offset from the holding section in the insertion direction, for example the holding section can be arranged closer to the rear wall of the oven muffle than the support surface, so that improved protection against tipping over is obtained, since the weight of the cooking goods carrier holds the holding section in the locked position.

[0007] In a further embodiment, the movable holding section is formed on a pivotable lever. In this case, the pivotable lever can comprise a support surface which can be moved by the underside of the rim when the cooking article carrier is placed on the support surface. This allows the cooking article carrier to be placed in a predetermined position on the support surface to pivot the lever, and then the holding section of the lever is moved over the rim of the cooking article carrier. Optionally, the cooking article carrier can then still be fully inserted into the oven muffle.

[0008] The rotation axis of the lever is preferably horizontally aligned and parallel to the insertion direction of the cooking article carrier into the oven muffle. The lever can be pivoted between a storage position and a receiving position, whereby both end positions are each limited by at least one stop. The lever is preferably biased into the receiving position by at least one spring or its own weight, so that the lever is moved automatically into the receiving position after the cooking tray has been removed. The lever can then be moved into the storage position by the weight of the cooking article carrier, in which storage position the holding section overlaps the rim of the cooking article carrier.

[0009] The holding device preferably comprises a rotation axis for the lever, which is arranged on the outside of the side of the holding device facing the side wall of the oven muffle. This allows the pivot to be protected behind the plate of the holding device, which reduces contamination.

[0010] The holding device preferably comprises a support element on which the lever is rotatably mounted. The support element can for example be formed as a plate in which a recess for the pivotable lever is formed.

[0011] The holding device does not necessarily have to be fixed in the oven muffle, but in a preferred embodiment can be fixed to the rail of the pull-out guide. Alternatively, the holding device can also be fixed to a side grid in the oven muffle, which is optionally extendable or fixed. In this way, the securing of the cooking article carrier can also be provided in combination with the pull-out mechanism.

[0012] The holding device is preferably completely made of metal. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0026] The oven 1 comprises oven muffle 2 on each of which a holding device 6 is arranged on opposite side walls 3. The holding device 6 serves to secure a cooking item carrier 4 which has an edge 5 that engages with the holding device 6 in an inserted position.

[0027] As shown in Figure 2 , the holding device 6 is located on the side walls 3 opposite both sides of the cooking item carrier 4. The holding device 6 comprises a support element 9 which is fixed directly to the side wall 3. Of course, it is also possible for the support element 9 to be fixed to a side rail or to a rail of a pull-out guide.

[0028] On the support element 9, a pivotable lever 7 is arranged which has a holding section 8 which, in the storage position of the cooking tray 4, engages above the edge 5 of the cooking item carrier 4 and secures the cooking item carrier 4 against lifting.

[0029] Figure 3 and Figure 4The holding device 6 is shown in detail. In Figure 3 the initial position, in which the lever 7 is pivoted into a receiving position. The lever 7 can be pivoted about a rotation axis 11 which extends parallel to the insertion direction of the cooking item carrier 4. The lever 7 is biased into the receiving position by a spring 10, for example a leaf spring. As can be seen from the figures, the spring 10 can be arranged above or below the rotation axis 11 and be formed as a tensile spring or a compression spring. A leaf spring or a torsion spring can also be used. At a distance from the holding section 8, the lever 7 comprises a support surface 12 on which the underside of the edge 5 of the cooking item carrier 4 can be placed. A support 13 is fixed to the support element 9 or the side wall 3 at a distance from the support surface 12. The lever 7 can also be formed such that it automatically moves into the receiving position due to gravity without an additional spring being required. Alternatively, the lever 7 can also be latched in one or both end positions via a latching device, for example via a spring bar or other latching element.

[0030] When the cooking item carrier 4 is moved downwards from the Figure 3 position shown, the underside of the edge 5 comes into contact with the support surface 12 and presses the lever 7 into a storage position in which it is pivoted through an angle of between 5° and 60°, in particular between 15° and 45°, with the holding section 8 engaging above the edge 5. The cooking item carrier 4 can now be fully inserted into the oven muffle and rest with the edge 5 on both the support surface 12 and the support 13. When the edge 5 is lifted vertically, it strikes the holding section 8. In particular, when the cooking item carrier 4 is moved into a position which is located partly in front of the oven muffle 2, the holding section 8 can prevent the cooking item carrier 4 from tilting and being lifted backwards, since the holding section 8 limits this lifting. To this end, the support surface 12 can be arranged offset in the insertion direction from the holding section 8, for example the holding section 8 can be arranged closer to the rear wall of the oven muffle than the support surface 12. The distance in the insertion direction can be greater than 2 cm, for example between 5 cm and 20 cm.

[0031] If the cooking item carrier 4 is pulled out of the oven muffle 2 and then lifted or only the cooking item carrier is lifted, the lever 7 of the holding device 6 is moved back into the receiving position by the force of the spring 10.

[0032] Figure 5 A second example of an oven 1 with a modified holding device 6' is shown. As Figure 6 can be seen, the holding device 6' is arranged on the opposite side wall 3 of the oven muffle 2. In each case, the edge 5 of the cooking item carrier 4 is held by the holding device 6' which comprises a pivotable lever 7'.

[0033] In Figure 7and Figure 8 The modified holding device is shown in detail in The lever 7' is formed as a U-shaped lever, which comprises a web-shaped holding section 8' and a web support surface 12' integral with the lever 7'. The lever 7' can be pivoted about a rotation axis 11' between two end positions, whereby the rotation axis 11' extends parallel to the insertion direction. The rotation axis 11' is arranged in the area of the side facing the side wall 3 of the movable holding section 8'.

[0034] In Figure 7 The lever 7' is shown in a receiving position, in which the recess-shaped container is open upwards to receive the rim 5 therein.

[0035] In Figure 8 The cooking item carrier 4 and the lever 7' are arranged in a storage position, in which the rim 5 is arranged in the U-shaped container of the lever 7' and its underside rests on the support surface 12'. The upper side of the rim 5 is covered by the holding section 8'. Here, the support surface 12' can also be arranged at a distance from the holding section 8' as seen in the insertion direction, in particular, the support surface 12' can be further away from the rear wall of the oven muffle 2 than the holding section 8'.

[0036] The holding device 6 or 6' can also be fixed to the track of the pull-out guide instead of being fixed to the side wall 3. In addition, the holding device 6, 6' can be arranged on a side grid in the oven muffle 2, whereby the side grid is optionally fixedly or movably arranged in the oven muffle 2.

[0037] The fixing of the holding device 6' to the movable track 21 of the pull-out guide 20 is shown, for example, in Figure 9 and Figure 10 The holding device 6' according to Figures 5 to 8 is formed. Figure 9 The position of the holding device 6' before storing the cooking item carrier 4 is shown, whereas Figure 10 The cooking item carrier 4 and the lever 7' in a storage position are shown. The holding device 6' is attached to the movable track 21 in a non-detachable or detachable manner, for example by welding, screwing or other means.

[0038] In the oven 1 according to the application, which can also be formed as a microwave oven or a combination of an oven and a microwave oven, the edges 5 of the cooking goods carriers 4 can be supported on the movable running tracks 21 of the pull-out guide 20 or on a movable side grid. In addition, clamping devices are provided, which fix the edges 5 of the cooking goods carriers 4 to the running tracks 21 or to the movable side grid or to a cover on the running tracks 21 in a clamped manner. This provides a rigid fixing or a combined rigid and non-rigid fixing of the cooking goods carriers 4, which at least makes it more difficult for the cooking goods carriers 4 to slide. The edges 5 of the cooking goods carriers 4 can rest directly on the running tracks 21, which are usually made of a bent sheet metal, or on the horizontal wires of a movable side grid, or in the case of a microwave oven, a cover is preferably placed on the running tracks 21 or permanently connected to the running tracks, so that the edges 5 of the cooking goods carriers 4 are fixed to the cover.

[0039] Figure 11 Another embodiment of the oven 1 is shown, in which the holder 15 with the holding device 6 is fixed to the rear wall 16. As in the first embodiment, the holding device 6 comprises a pivotable lever 7, which has a holding section 8 in the form of a pin or a protrusion. As shown, the holding section 8 on the lever 7 engages above the rear edge 5 of the cooking goods carrier 4 in the storage position of the cooking goods carrier 4 and fixes the cooking goods carrier 4 against lifting. This embodiment example can also be combined with the previous embodiment examples. The rotation axis 11 of the lever 7 extends perpendicular to the insertion direction of the cooking goods carrier 4. Figure 12

[0040] The holding devices 6 and 6' are preferably made of metal, heat-resistant plastic or ceramic and are sufficiently heat-resistant, for example also for pyrolysis operations.
