The present disclosure relates to an appliance. The appliance includes; a main body that has a first accommodation space therein, and a first sensing module that is disposed at the main body in a way that the first sensing module is disposed outside the first accommodation space. Since a sensor is disposed to avoid the effect of heat as described above, the sensor is much less likely to operate improperly or be broken because of heat.

An embodiment of the present disclosure provides a toaster oven including: a cooking chamber; an air passage; and a fan. The cooking chamber includes a side wall and a top wall. One of the side wall and the top wall is provided with an air inlet in communication with a cooking space of the cooking chamber. The other of the side wall and the top wall is provided with an air outlet in communication with the cooking space. The air passage between the air inlet and the air outlet is disposed outside the cooking chamber. The fan blows air from the air inlet to the air outlet through the air passage.

An oven may include inner oven walls defining a cavity. The oven may further include a heating element configured to heat air in the oven. The oven may further include a fan positioned between the rear of the oven and the heating element. The fan may be configured to: draw air from the front of the oven to the rear of the oven; blow the drawn air over the heating element to produce heated air; and distribute the heated air within the oven.

Embodiments of this disclosure reduce an oven's emission of volatile organic compounds when air frying. The catalyst does not require a self-contained heating assembly but instead is adapted for connection to at least one of a suction side and a discharge side of the circulation fan. The catalyst may be in the form of a screen or a foil bundle and have a mass loading of 10 g to 75 g per cubic foot of catalyst volume. The screen is sized for connection to the circulation fan and includes a corrugated pattern and coated with the catalyst on at least half of the screen. The foil bundle has a cell density in a range of 20 cells to 50 cells per square inch and is sized for location in a corner of the heating elements. The foil bundle can include a slew or herringbone cell pattern.

The present disclosure provides a cooking appliance including a cooking chamber, at least one heating unit disposed within the cooking chamber, and multiple racks holding members to position racks at a desired height within the cooking chamber. The cooking appliance further includes a fan assembly movably coupled to a rear wall of the cooking chamber, and a driving unit coupled to the fan assembly to move the fan assembly vertically along the rear wall of the cooking chamber.

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.

A motor assembly for a convection oven includes a motor mount bracket and a motor. The motor mount bracket includes a plurality of slots spaced radially from an axle hole. The motor includes a plurality of locking flanges complimentary to the plurality of slots. The motor is selectively attached to the motor mount bracket by inserting a respective locking flange into a respective slot and twisting the motor.

A space oven operates in microgravity environments by forcing convection towards the center through a unique heating element and airflow design. The space oven includes a tubular chamber, a heating rack, a heating system, a cooling system, a hatch, a user interface, a microcontroller, an enclosure, at least one first vent, at least one second vent and at least one temperature sensor. The tubular chamber is the cooking area. The heating rack holds consumables in place. The heating system heats up consumables. The cooling system prevents any overheating. The hatch closes off and allows access to the inside of the tubular chamber. The user interface allows a user to input commands. The microcontroller manages the electronic components. The enclosure protects the tubular chamber. The at least one first vent and the at least one second vent reduce pressure buildup. The at least one temperature sensor monitors the internal temperature.

A high thermal mass cooking oven with an oven compartment having multiple high thermal mass cooking racks spaced in parallel opposition but close proximity is provided. A large blower allows a large amount of heated air to enter the cooking compartment and be retained by the oven compartment walls and cooking racks. The cooking racks are more massive than a typical oven and provide high conductivity and emissivity.

A cooking appliance is provided that includes a cooktop and a double oven. A first oven may be a standard radiant or convection oven. A second oven comprises a combined toaster-oven and air fryer. The combined toaster-oven and air fryer can include a heat source that is the same as or different from the heat source of the first oven. The heat source of the second oven can include a plurality of graphite bake heating elements and a plurality of graphite broil elements. The second oven includes a fan disposed configured to provide targeted air flow directly onto a food load that is placed inside said second oven.
