Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to an electric oven, specifically a double-door electric oven. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional electric ovens consist of a cabinet with an opening at the front. A door covers this opening to seal the oven, and heating elements are used for baking. Currently, most electric ovens use a single-door design with a bottom hinge for a downward-opening mechanism. When the door is open, the horizontally unfolded door panel is directly exposed between the user and the oven, significantly restricting the user's movement in small kitchens. Furthermore, the downward-opening door usually requires the user to bend or squat to access the oven and handle food, causing inconvenience and potentially discomfort. Some manufacturers have attempted to address this by using a side-opening single-door design to reduce the space occupied in front of the oven, but this design is complex, cumbersome, and expensive to produce. Moreover, even when fully opened, the side-opening single-door design still occupies a significant amount of space, failing to effectively solve the problem of low space utilization.

[0023] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. A double-door electric oven includes a cabinet 1, with a door 2 installed at the front end of the cabinet 1. The door 2 is configured as a double door, including a first door and a second door. The two doors are connected to the cabinet 1 in a split manner by a door hinge mechanism 3. The door hinge mechanism 3 includes a door frame 31 that is fixed to the front end of the cabinet 1. The door frame 31 is bent inward to form an upper mounting edge 311 and a lower mounting edge 312. A mounting cavity 4 is hollowed out between the upper mounting plate and the lower mounting edge 312. The cabinet 1 is fixedly installed outside the upper mounting edge 311. The lower mounting edge 312 has an upper hinge hole 5 and a lower hinge hole respectively through its upper and lower ends.

[0024] The door hinge mechanism 3 also includes a hinge shaft 32 that is inserted and installed on one side of the box door. The two ends of the hinge shaft 32 protrude from the box door and extend to be hinged in the upper hinge hole 5 and the lower hinge hole respectively, so as to hinge the box door to the box body 1.

[0025] The front end of the box door has a handle 6 protruding outward, and the control panel 7 is embedded in the handle 6.

[0026] The hinge shaft 32 has guide cone surfaces at both ends.

[0027] The hinge 32 is a cylindrical long shaft.

[0028] The hinge shaft 32 is fitted with mounting shims 8 at its upper and lower ends, and the mounting shims 8 are clamped between the door and the door frame 31.

[0029] The power connection cable of the control panel 7 passes through the door and enters the enclosure 1 to connect with the main power supply.

[0030] The handle 6 extends rearward to provide a first support base 61 and a second support base 62, which are connected to the door. A handle area 63 is formed by hollowing out the handle 6 and the door.

[0031] Working principle: In this case, the electric oven has a double-door structure, including a first door and a second door. The two doors are connected to the oven body in a split-opening manner through a hinge structure.

[0032] The door hinge structure includes a door frame that is fixed to the front end of the box. The door frame is bent inward around its perimeter to form an upper mounting edge and a lower mounting edge. An installation cavity is provided between the upper mounting edge and the lower mounting edge. The upper mounting edge is used to connect with the box to fix the door frame to the opening of the box, ensuring a stable connection between the door frame and the box.

[0033] The door hinge structure also includes a hinge shaft that is inserted and installed on one side of the cabinet door. This hinge shaft is a cylindrical long shaft that is first inserted into one side of the cabinet door to hinge with the cabinet door body. The length of the hinge shaft is set to be longer than the cabinet door. After the hinge shaft is hinged with the cabinet door, the two ends of the hinge shaft protrude from the upper and lower edges of the cabinet door, respectively, and continue to extend, respectively hinged in the upper hinge hole and the lower hinge hole provided through the lower mounting edge.

[0034] It should be noted that the mounting cavity, which is hollowed out between the upper and lower mounting edges, provides space for the assembly of the hinge shaft. The hinge shaft can first align with the lower hinge hole and then extend further into the mounting cavity. At this point, the upper end of the hinge shaft can align with the upper hinge hole, thus completing the installation of the cabinet door. During the opening and closing of the cabinet door, the hinge hole, as a connection point, not only provides support for the opening and closing of the cabinet door, but the cabinet door can also rotate around the hinge hole, forming a rotatable hinge structure.

[0035] When the user needs to open the oven, they can grasp the handle at the front of the door and pull it outwards. Pulling the handle will cause the door to rotate outwards around the hinge axis, thus opening the door. The first and second doors open to the left and right respectively, forming a double-leaf structure. The user can choose to open one or both doors as needed. To close, simply push the door back to its initial position. The hinge axis will rotate within the hinge hole, and the door will return to its original position, covering the oven opening.

[0036] The opening and closing of the cabinet door can be achieved solely through the coordinated operation of the hinge and the door frame, avoiding the large number of parts and complex assembly required by traditional hinge structures. This reduces manufacturing difficulty and cost, while also facilitating maintenance of the cabinet door by the user.

[0037] To improve the durability of the oven door, mounting shims are fitted at the upper and lower ends of the hinge shaft. The mounting shims are clamped between the oven door and the door frame, which significantly reduces the friction between the oven door and the door frame, facilitates the adjustment of the installation gap between the oven door and the door frame, enhances the sealing of the electric oven, and improves the smoothness and durability of the oven door opening and closing process.

[0038] In this case, the electric oven features a control panel embedded in the handle. The power cord of the control panel passes through the oven door and enters the oven body to connect with the main power supply. This integrated control panel structure allows users to adjust the oven's internal control parameters simultaneously with the oven door, avoiding the inconvenience of traditional control panels located on the top or side of the oven, requiring users to reach across high-temperature areas. Furthermore, the control panel's location on the upper part of the door, away from the high-temperature areas inside the oven, significantly reduces the risk of overheating and improves user safety. The integrated design of the control panel and handle enhances the intuitiveness of control settings adjustments, improves space utilization, and maintains a clean and aesthetically pleasing exterior, making it a design suitable for widespread adoption.

[0039] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claimed utility model.
