A covering member intended to be connected to a mini-oven, includes one or more connectors. The covering member is constructed and arranged to form at least a portion of the mini-oven door or to be placed between the cooking cavity and the mini-oven door when the door is closed, so as to limit access to the cooking cavity through the opening of the mini-oven. The covering member may reduce the quantity of heat energy lost from the cooking cavity when the mini-oven door is open, such that it improves the performance of the mini-oven and reduces cooking times.

A multi-zone, proximate-air oven using air delivered from the shelves provides a compact height through the use of low profile shelves. Intercavity heat leakage is managed by active insulation techniques making use of the oven feedback temperature control and controlled cavity loading.

A cooking appliance may include a cabinet with a cavity that defines a cooking space, an upper panel disposed above the cavity and that is configured to define an upper appearance of the cooking appliance, a front panel disposed in front of the cavity and that is configured to define a front appearance of the cooking appliance, a door that is configured to open and close the cavity, a side panel that is disposed on a side of the cavity and that is configured to define a side appearance of the cooking appliance, a rear panel that is disposed behind the cavity and that is configured to define a rear appearance of the cooking appliance, and a frame bracket that is mounted to a front upper portion of the cabinet and that is configured to secure the upper and front panels to the cabinet.

A cooktop includes a cooking surface and a heating element. A cover for the cooktop includes a top sheet extending between a left side and a right side and between a front side and a back side. A locator opening is defined in the top sheet. A first peripheral flange extends from one of the left side and the front side, and a second peripheral flange extends from one of the right side and the back side. A first plurality of cooling slots is between the top sheet and the first peripheral flange. A second plurality of cooling slots is between the top sheet and the second peripheral flange. The cover is configured to overlie the cooktop such that the locator opening corresponds to the heating element of the cooktop.

Protective devices for cooking apparatus and methods of use are provided herein. An example protective cover includes a substrate, having a first layer of a heat resistant textile, the substrate covers or overlaps a stove, the substrate having panels that are selectively removable and which align with burners of the stove, further removal of the panels exposes the burners of the stove.

The present invention relates to an oven, including a box body, a middle spacer, a second heating module, a first heating module, a first door body, a second door body, a detection device, and a controller. The box body has a cooking cavity. The middle spacer is vertically arranged in a middle of the cooking cavity, and is detachably and fixedly connected to the box body, to selectively divide the cooking cavity into a first small cavity and a second small cavity. The second heating module and the first heating module can work independently of each other. The detection device is arranged in the box body or the middle spacer and is configured to detect whether the middle spacer is mounted in place and to generate a corresponding detection signal. The controller is arranged in the box body.

A cooking appliance (10) including: a body (12) with a front face; at least one projection (24, 26, 28) extending from the front face, and that is manipulated by a user to control the appliance (10); and an interface (30) releasably mounted on the front face adjacent the projection (24, 26, 28), the interface (30) being mountable in a first orientation or a second orientation, with the orientation to be selected by the user when mounting the interface (30) on the front face.

The present invention relates to a door for a domestic appliance, in particular a cooking oven. Said door comprises a door frame (14) formed as a closed rectangular frame, at least one outer glass panel (10) attached or attachable at an outer side of the door frame (14), at least one inner glass panel (16) attached or attachable at an inner side of the door frame (14), at least one outer sealing element (38) arranged or arrangeable between the inner side of the outer glass panel (10) and the outer side of the door frame (14), and at least one inner sealing element (40) arranged or arrangeable between the outer side of the inner glass panel (16) and the inner side of the door frame (14). The large area side of the outer glass panel (10) is bigger than the large area side of the door frame (14). Further, the large area side of the outer glass panel (10) is bigger than the large area side of the inner glass panel (16). At least one inner space inside the door frame (14) and between the outer glass panel (10) and inner glass panel (16) is hermetically closed. Further, the present invention relates to a domestic appliance, in particular a cooking oven, including at least one door.

An appliance includes a cabinet with a rear panel. The rear panel defines a recessed portion with an offset surface and an aperture defined on the offset surface. A power connector is disposed in the aperture. The power connector includes a cable engagement section configured to engage a power cable and a source engagement section opposing the cable engagement section. The source engagement section extends through the rear panel to engage a power receiver within the cabinet. A mounting flange is disposed between the cable engagement section and the source engagement section and operably couples to the offset surface. A cover is coupled to the rear panel over the recessed portion. The cover includes an outer rim and a body protruding outward from the outer rim. An opening is defined between a bottom section of the body and the rear panel through which the power cable is configured to extend.
