An oven can include an oven body including a set of interior panels. A set of exterior panels are spaced from the set of interior panels such that a channel is defined between the set of interior panels and the set of exterior panels. The set of interior panels includes an interior panel peripheral wall and an interior panel top wall that at least partially define a cooking cavity. Each interior panel of the set of interior panels has an inner surface and an outer surface. Insulation is located in at least a portion of the channel. The oven further includes an imaging device with a field of view including at least a portion of the cooking cavity.

A household oven includes a cooking chamber (6), a light source mount (31), an LED light source (20) arranged on the light source mount (31) to shine light into THE cooking chamber (6), a heat sink (16), and a heat pipe (15) thermally coupling the LED light source (20) to the heat sink (15). This design allows to carry off heat from the LED light source (20).

A connected oven, including a set of in-cavity sensors and a processor configured to automatically identify foodstuff within the cooking cavity, based on the sensor measurements; and automatically operate the heating element based on the foodstuff identity.

A combined handle and light source for a cooking appliance such as a grill which is provided with a rotation joint such that the handle can be placed in a stored position to allow for articulation of a lid which covers a cooking surface and such that the handle can be moved relative to the joint to put the handle in a use position to allow the light to illuminate the cooking surface when the lid is in an open position.

A cooking apparatus light including a carrier that forms an illuminant receiver wherein an illuminant configured as a circuit board including at least one LED is received in the illuminant receiver, wherein the carrier includes a receiving spout that is connected through an opening with the illuminant receiver; and a light conductor rod that is received in the receiving spout and fed light emitted by the illuminant through the opening between the receiving spout and the illuminant receiver, wherein the light conductor rod is fixed in the carrier in an axial direction of the light conductor rod by a form locking connection.

A connected oven, including a set of in-cavity sensors and a processor configured to automatically identify foodstuff within the cooking cavity, based on the sensor measurements; and automatically operate the heating element based on the foodstuff identity.

A food processing appliance (1) has a muffle interior (M) surrounded by a muffle (2; 32) and a light generating device (3) arranged outside the muffle (2; 32) for radiating light (L) into the muffle interior (M) through a Opening (16; 33) in the muffle (2; 32), wherein in the muffle interior (M) a light distribution element (18; 58) for distributing light (L) that can be radiated through the opening (16; 33), is arranged and between the light generating device (3) and the light distribution element (18; 58) there is a gap (S). The invention can be applied particularly advantageously to cooking appliances with an oven functionality and/or with a microwave functionality.

A cooking appliance including a cooking cavity defined by a cooking cavity wall; a cut out provided in the cooking cavity wall; a cooking appliance light arranged in the cut out and configured to illuminate the cooking cavity; and a support plate including a receiving opening for the cooking appliance light, wherein the cooking appliance light is supported in the receiving opening, wherein the support plate fixes the cooking appliance light in the cut out, wherein the support plate including the cooking appliance light closes the cut out in the cooking cavity wall, wherein the cooking appliance light includes a LED illuminant and a light conductor rod, wherein the light conductor rod is supported in the cut out in the cooking cavity wall.
