The present invention relates to an electric oven capable of reducing contaminants, the electric oven comprising: an oven body having a cavity capable of accommodating food therein; and a convection assembly which is installed to protrude from one surface of the cavity and which can suck and remove contaminants generated when cooking the food and can heat the inside of the cavity. The convection assembly comprises: a cover case, protruding from one surface of the cavity, including a front surface which is spaced apart from the one surface of the cavity and has an inlet port, and a side surface which extends from the front surface to the one surface of the cavity and has an outlet port; a convection fan which is installed inside the cover case and allows air containing the contaminants to be sucked into the cover case through the inlet port and discharged through the outlet port; and a convection heater for heating the air sucked into the cover case by the convection fan to remove the contaminants, wherein the air discharged from the cover case moves in an upward inclined direction with respect to the one surface of the cavity.

An oven appliance has a reflector positioned within a housing above an upper heating element. An air distribution manifold defines an entrance proximate a cooking chamber of the housing. A catalytic smoke reducer is positioned above the reflector at the entrance of the air distribution manifold. An air handler is operable to draw air from above the reflector through the catalytic smoke reducer and the entrance of the air distribution manifold.

An electric stove includes an electric heating element arranged at a distance from a position right below a target to be heated. A first mirror surface portion is arranged to surround the electric heating element and configured to reflect heat rays radiated from the electric heating elements. A second mirror surface portion is arranged below the electric heating elements and configured to collect the heat rays reflected by the first mirror surface portion to a side below the target by reflecting the heat rays substantially immediately upwardly. The first mirror surface portion includes a plurality of partial elliptical mirror surface portions having one focus near the electric heating elements and the other focus below the electric heating elements, and the second mirror surface portion includes a partial elliptical mirror surface portion a having one focus near the electric heating elements and the other focus below the electric heating elements.

An oven has a housing defining a cooking cavity. A door is configured to open and close to provide access to the cooking cavity. At least one gas heating element is provided at a lower portion of the cooking cavity, and an electric heating element is provided at an upper portion of the cooking cavity.

The present invention relates to an electric oven. The electric oven according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a cavity which is provided with an oven chamber, a door for opening and closing alternatively the oven chamber, a carbon heater for providing radiant energy to the inside of a cooking room through the communication opening, a reflector for reflecting the radiant energy from the carbon heater to the inside of the cooking room, and a grate which is fixed to the reflector and is disposed on the communication opening and is provided with a forming section a part of which is formed toward the reflector. Therefore, the grate can be prevented from being damaged according to the electric oven of the present invention.

An appliance is provided with a cavity wrapper defining a cooking chamber therein. An embossment is formed in a wall of the cavity wrapper and protrudes within the cooking chamber. The embossment has a leading sloped portion. A shroud is located adjacent the wall and includes an outer perimeter edge that is spaced from the embossment thereby defining an exhaust port therebetween. A bracket is disposed outside the cavity wrapper and includes a pair of mounting tabs affixed to an external surface of the wall of the cavity wrapper. The pair of mounting tabs straddling the embossment in a staggered formation.

A food reheating assembly for includes an oven that may have a slice of pizza positioned therein. A door is hingedly coupled to the oven. The door is positionable in an open position and a closed position. A heating element is positioned within the oven and the heating element heats the slice of pizza. A control is coupled to the front side and the control may be manipulated. The control is electrically coupled to the heating element such that the control turns the heating element on and off.

Examples are disclosed herein that relate to a cooking system having multiple heating elements for heating a cooking surface. One example provides a cooking system, comprising a continuous cooking surface comprising a plurality of individually controllable heating zones, and for each heating zone, a temperature sensor configured to detect a temperature for the heating zone separately from the temperatures of other heating zones, and a heating element disposed beneath the heating zone and configured to provide heat to the heating zone. The cooking system further comprises a controller configured to individually control the heating element of each heating zone.

A cooking apparatus includes a cooking chamber, a cooking plate having a visual representation distinguishing a plurality of areas on a top surface of the cooking plate, a plurality of heaters configured to supply heat to the plurality of areas and a controller configured to receive information about a cooking object including a plurality of pieces of food having different cooking conditions, based on the information about the cooking object, determine a first heating intensity to be used to heat the first piece of the food, and a second heating intensity to be used to heat the second piece of the food, control the plurality of heaters to supply heat of the first heating intensity to the first area, and control the plurality of heaters to supply heat of the second heating intensity to the second area.
