A method for cleaning the cooking space of a cooking appliance with a pan including adding a cleaning agent to the cooking space and if necessary, after this agent has been allowed to work for a certain period of time, a liquid jet is introduced under high pressure from the a spray head of a cleaning device through the at least one spray nozzle, which rotates around an axis perpendicular to the rotational axis of the spray head rotating around this axis. The liquid jet consists exclusively of water and which swirls and splashes the cleaning agent, and if necessary, after this splashed agent has been allowed to work for a further certain period of time, removes the residues mechanically from the bottom, the walls, and the inside surface of the lid, and wherein said residues are then carried away together with the washing solution out of the cooking space via the drain.

A cooking appliance for commercial kitchens has a fat collection device with at least one fat collection container, at least one fat extraction line, at least one suction pump and at least one fat discharge line. The fat extraction line extends from the fat collection container to the suction pump. The suction pump conveys a fat-water mixture via the fat extraction line into the fat discharge line. A cleaning device is provided which conveys water at least via the fat extraction line and the fat collection container into a cooking chamber outlet of the cooking appliance.

A cooking oven is provided having a cleaning system with a spray nozzle that leverages the kinetic energy of the cleaning fluid entering the nozzle to aid in the dispersion of this cleaning fluid. This is done by conducting that fluid in a circular path to preserve its kinetic energy as it circulates around the nozzle and is discharged tangentially. Desirably, the circulation of the cleaning fluid is in a horizontal axis so as to minimize the nozzle height.

An oven comprising an injection nozzle includes a nozzle member that has a fluid inlet and a first fluid outlet that is in communication with the inlet The nozzle member is movable between: (i) a first position, in which the first fluid outlet is arranged so as to direct fluid towards and onto a component of the oven to be cleaned; and (ii) a second position, in which the first fluid outlet is blocked or otherwise arranged so as not to direct fluid towards and onto said component.

Provided is a closed cooking cavity (100) formed by means of a shell in a sealed manner; a working space for accommodating main cooking equipment is formed in an interior of the cooking cavity (100), the shell is provided with communicating openings which are corresponding to the main cooking equipment and adapted for communicating the interior and exterior of the cooking cavity (100), and accessory cooking equipment arranged at the exterior of the cooking cavity (100) is connected with corresponding main cooking equipment arranged in the interior of the cooking cavity through corresponding communicating openings so as to achieve corresponding cooking functions. A closed cooking system comprises the cooking cavity (100) and a cooking machine comprises the closed cooking system.

A cooking appliance with a self-cleaning function includes: a cooking chamber partially formed by an inner enclosure; a cleaning device for cleaning the cooking chamber, the cleaning device including a delivery device and a distribution device; a closure element for closing and clearing an access opening of the cooking chamber; and at least one cooking chamber seal disposed in a cooking chamber groove of the cooking appliance such that the at least one cooking chamber seal faces the closure element, the cooking chamber groove being formed by the inner enclosure and/or by a front housing wall of the cooking appliance. The cooking chamber seal, at least in some sections, has at least one slot extending along a principal direction of extent thereof, the at least one slot being open inwardly in a mounting direction and/or outwardly in a direction opposite the mounting direction.

A cooking device, in particular a commercial cooking device, comprises a housing, a cooking chamber in the housing and a door for closing the cooking chamber, a heating device for heating the cooking chamber, a first load assembly, which is disposed for power supply in a first load circuit, a fan assembly with electric motor for generating air circulation in the cooking chamber, wherein the fan arrangement is disposed for power supply in a fan load circuit, and a power supply device, wherein the first load circuit is connected to a first load circuit terminal of the power supply device, and wherein the fan load circuit is connected to a fan load circuit terminal of the power supply device, wherein the power supply device comprises a first load circuit switch for switching the first load circuit and a fan load circuit switch for switching the fan load circuit.

A cooking appliance may include a casing having a cavity and an upper space, a door that opens and closes the cavity. A panel may be disposed at a front of the casing with a height different from a height of the door. A hinge may connect the casing and the panel to each other while located therebetween. A wire cover may cover a wire harness that extends from the panel into the upper space. The wire cover may be coupled to the hinge to protrude from and retract into the upper space together with the hinge. As described above, the wire harness may be covered with the wire cover, so that outward exposure of the wire harness is prevented.

A cooking appliance may include a casing in which a cavity and an electric chamber divided from the cavity are disposed, a door disposed at a front of the casing and configured to open and close the cavity, a tank housing disposed in the electric chamber, and having a tank chamber therein, and a water tank stored in the tank chamber, and configured to be inserted into and withdrawn from the casing through an entrance of the tank chamber in a forward-rearward direction of the cooking appliance. A lower surface of the tank housing may be spaced upward from a bottom surface of the electric chamber. With this structure, heat of the cavity disposed in a lower portion of the electric chamber may be prevented from being directly transmitted to the water tank.

A cooking appliance includes a casing having a cavity and an electric chamber therein, and a door opening and closing the cavity. In addition, a tank housing storing a water tank therein is disposed in the electric chamber. The tank housing has a tank chamber open towards a tank entrance of a front housing. A front surface of the tank housing is in close contact with a rear surface of the front housing, and the tank chamber is connected to the tank entrance. When the tank housing and the front housing are in close contact with each other, leakage of water or inflow of foreign substances through a gap between the two components can be prevented.
