A portable baking oven having an upper portion and a lower portion that define a baking chamber are disclosed. A baking chamber opening may be defined entirely by the oven upper portion. The upper portion may pivot away from the lower portion to allow access to the interior of the oven for cleaning. The oven may include a gas-powered infrared bottom burner and a gas-powered curved back burner.

Provided is lifting multifunctional air fryer, including machine body, cookware and lifting drive component, wherein the cookware includes at least frying basket and frying pan, and the machine body includes machine head, base, and side plate arranged between the machine head and the base, to define first cooking chamber for accommodating the frying basket and second cooking chamber for accommodating the frying pan. Air frying module is arranged above the first cooking chamber, and the air frying module communicates the inner chamber of frying basket; first heating element is arranged above the second cooking chamber, and second heating element is arranged below, both of them are connected to the frying pan; the first heating element is driven by the lifting drive component to lift, so that the height between the first heating element and the second heating element is adapted to that of ingredients on the frying pan.

A heating device having a burn chamber that includes at least one opening, a conduction chamber adjacent to the burn chamber and including at least one aperture, a heat manifold including a first port and a second port, and at least one source vent extending between and coupling the first port of the heat manifold to the at least one opening of the burn chamber, and at least one exhaust vent, protruding from a surface of the heat manifold and extending between and coupling the second port of the heat manifold to the at least one aperture of the conduction chamber.

A cooking system includes a housing having at least one internal compartment and a cooking container receivable within said at least one internal compartment. A cooking volume is defined within an interior of said cooking container. A bottom surface of said cooking container is angled upwardly. A heating element is associated with said at least one internal compartment.

A method and apparatus for filling a steam chamber. In one exemplary embodiment, a steam chamber is placed in selective communication with a vacuum pump and a heat transfer medium, such as a source of deaerated water. The steam chamber is then placed in communication with the vacuum pump, which draws a vacuum on the steam chamber and begins removing air from the interior thereof. Once a sufficient vacuum has been drawn on the steam chamber and substantially all of the air removed therefrom, the steam chamber may be placed in communication with the heat transfer medium. In one exemplary embodiment, the heat transfer medium is deaerated water. A predetermined amount of heat transfer medium is then allowed to fill the steam chamber. Once the predetermined amount of deaerated water has been received within the steam chamber, a steam chamber may be sealed.

Provided is an apparatus and method for a digital power supply that can provide independent power control for two or more electrical loads. Some disclosed embodiments provide continuous, variable power and other disclosed embodiments provide discrete power levels. Disclosed embodiments may reduce the magnitude of harmonic currents and/or flicker introduced into a power system. Embodiments include a microprocessor that delivers power to electric loads using phase-controlled AC current. In some embodiments, the microprocessor may calculate a power array corresponding to a requested power for each electric load. Logic is provided for populating the power array in a pattern that reduces the magnitude of harmonic currents and flicker. Portions of the disclosure include a band controller for delivering power to achieve and maintain a desired target temperature, and a wireless controller for controlling temperature from a remote device.

An outdoor cooking station configured to simultaneously and independently cook food with separate cooking modes. The cooking station includes a main body defining separate first and second cooking portions fueled by separate fuel sources for cooking food in the separate modes. The first cooking portion includes gas-fueled first heating elements configured to heat a first cooking surface associated with the first cooking portion of the main body. The second cooking portion of the main body extends to define a chamber, the chamber being accessible with a door or hood pivotably coupled to the main body. The chamber includes an upper region and a lower region separated by an inner panel, the upper region including a second cooking surface suspended within the upper region. The lower region includes a second heating element sized and configured to electrically heat pellet elements to supply heat and smoke to the upper region.

Provided is an air fryer that includes an inner cooking chamber located within a cooking chamber. The inner cooking chamber has a first opening and a second opening spaced apart from the first opening across the inner cooking chamber. The inner cooking chamber is partly delimited by a second wall extending between the first opening and the second opening. A duct is defined by a space between the first wall and the second wall. The duct provides a fluid connection between the first opening and the second opening. The air fryer also includes a heater for heating the inner cooking chamber, and a fan. The fan receives air from axial directions and moves the air radially. The fan is axially movable relative to the inner cooking chamber such that the air fryer is switchable between a first configuration and a second configuration, and vice versa.

Disclosed herein is a press mechanism for a griddle to mold a steak burger puck into a formed steak burger patty. The press mechanism can include an arm connected to a hinge. The hinge can be attached to a griddle surface. The platen can be connected to the arm and can include a concave surface to receive a steak burger puck. A platen heater can be connected to the platen to heat the platen to an operating temperature.
