A temperature-regulating appliance includes a top portion, a base, and a mounting adapter. The top portion has an upper surface and a lower surface. The top portion is configured to be mounted to a countertop. The base includes a housing defining an internal compartment and a thermal element disposed within the internal compartment of the housing. The mounting adapter extends from the lower surface of the top portion to the housing. The mounting adapter detachably couples the base to the top portion.

A cooktop includes a base and an electrically conductive coating applied to the lower surface of the base. The coating is composed of a paint containing electrically conductive particles dispersed in a silicone or polyester-silicone or epoxy-silicone resin. The conductive particles are selected from the group consisting of multi-wall or single-wall carbon nanotubes, graphene, copper metallic particles, nickel metallic particles, or combinations thereof.

An oven includes a main body providing a first heating space of the oven, and a drawer device which is below the first heating space. The drawer device includes a drawer casing providing an opening at which the drawer casing is open to outside the drawer device at a front of the oven, a drawer insertable into or removable out of the drawer casing, through the opening, a drawer heater installed in the drawer casing, and a drawer heater cover detachably coupled with the drawer casing at the front of the oven and rotatably coupled with the drawer casing at a rear of the oven which is opposite to the front of the oven, the drawer heater cover being moveable relative to the drawer heater.

A modular oven includes a cabinet receiving separate modules with distinct cooking operations. Modules of the modular oven may provide any combination of convection cooking, steam cooking, impingement cooking, and high speed cooking. Therefore, the modules may be mixed and matched to suit the desired cooking operations. In some embodiments, improved steam cooking at lower cooking temperatures is provided by directing spraying water onto an independent heat source, controlled separately from the cavity heating element, within each cooking zone. By operating a separate heating element specifically for steam generation, there can be more accurate heat control of the cooking zones without overheating the cooking zones when steam is needed but when lower cooking temperatures (e.g., 211 degrees Fahrenheit and below) are desired.

The present disclosure relates to a cooking appliance. In the cooking appliance, a hinge coupling part being fixed to a door and coupled to a hinge part is provided with a position adjustment guide part that guides a front-to-rear coupling position between a fastening part and the hinge coupling part, and the fastening part is coupled to the position adjustment guide part in a way that can move in the front-rear direction and is coupled to the hinge coupling part.

The present disclosure relates to a cooking appliance. In the cooking appliance, a portion of a fastening bracket is coupled to a cabinet, the remaining portion of the fastening bracket contacts the bottom surface of a housing in parallel, and as a fastening member couples the fastening bracket to the bottom surface of the housing, the cabinet is coupled to the housing while the front surface of the cabinet contacts the housing closely.

Several embodiments include a cooking appliance/instrument (e.g., oven). The cooking instrument can draw an alternating current (AC) power and generate a maximum available power for a heating system of the cooking instrument via a power component that converts the drawn AC power. The cooking instrument can then directionally heat each of different zones in a cooking chamber of the cooking instrument in sequence using one or more heating elements of the heating system on at least one side of the cooking chamber such that each step in the sequence utilizes the maximum available power for the heating system.

A cooking appliance according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a case having a cooking chamber formed therein; a door for opening/closing a front opening of the case; a steam generation device mounted on the exterior of the case; and a steam supply pipe for connecting the steam generation device and the cooking chamber, wherein the steam generation device can comprise: a housing fixed to the case; a drawer provided so as to be able to be withdrawn from and put into the housing, and into which water for generating steam is filled; and a heating unit mounted on the lower surface of the drawer so as to heat the water filled inside the drawer.

An electric range that may include a case, a cover plate coupled to an upper end of the case and having an upper surface on which a heating target is disposed, at least one heater disposed under the cover plate and configured to heat the heating target, an upper bracket that is disposed under the at least one heater and supports the at least one heater, a base bracket that is disposed under the upper bracket and on which a printed circuit board is installed, a heat sink installed on the printed circuit board, a blower fan installed on the base bracket and configured to discharge air toward the heat sink, and an air guide that communicates with the blower fan and surrounds the heat sink to form a flow path of air which cools the heat sink.

A cooking appliance includes a housing having a cooking compartment, which is surrounded by a bottom surface, a pair of side surfaces, and a back surface of the housing, and has an upper surface and a front surface which are open. A door includes a door upper surface part which covers the upper surface of the housing and a door front surface part which is connected to a front side of the door upper surface part and covers the front surface of the housing and opens and closes the upper surface and the front surface of the housing by rotating about a rear side of the door upper surface part. A heating part is installed in at least one of the housing or the door.
