(29) The oven (1) comprises a cooking chamber (2), at least one fan (3) that propels the air, a side wall (8) having at least one side blowing hole (9) that provides air to be delivered to the cooking chamber (2), a rear wall (4) that separates the cooking chamber (2) and the volume wherein the fan (3) is situated, at least one rear blowing hole (18) which is located on the rear wall (4) and provides air to be delivered to the cooking chamber (2), at least one separator (5) which can be mounted to and dismounted from the cooking chamber (2) and which divides the cooking chamber (2), at least two compartments (6) which are located in the cooking chamber (2) and separated from each other by the separator (5), and at least one passage (7) which provides the air flow from the volume wherein the fan (3) is situated to the side blowing holes (9).

(30) The oven (1) of the present invention comprises at least one lid (10) which provides the air flow into the cooking chamber (2) through the side blowing holes (9) as the front of the passage (7) is opened when the separator (5) is placed into the cooking chamber (2), and which provides the front of the passage (7) to be closed when the separator (5) is removed from the cooking chamber (2). In order that different foods are cooked at different temperatures, the inner volume of the oven (1) is divided into two by means of the separator (5). The separator (5) is placed into the cooking chamber (2) by being pushed towards the rear wall (4) by the user. When the separator (5) gets closer to the rear wall (4), the lid (10) moves away from the passage (7). As the passage (7) is opened, air delivery to the side blowing holes (9) is provided. Thus, hot air is delivered to the compartment (6) wherein the side blowing holes (9) are located both from the rear by means of the rear blowing holes (18) and from the sides by means of the side blowing holes (9) and thus, a homogeneous cooking is provided to be performed in the compartment (6). When the separator (5) is removed from the cooking chamber (2), the front of the passage (7) is closed by means of the lid (10) and air flow through the side blowing holes (9) is prevented. Therefore, air is blown into the cooking chamber (2) only from the back (FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4).

(31) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises at least one triggering arm (12), which the separator (5) bears against when placed into the cooking chamber (2), and at least one shaft (11) which can rotate around its own axis and which is connected to the triggering arm (12). While getting closer to the rear wall (4), the separator (5) bears against the triggering arm (12). The triggering arm (12) moves by the separator (5) bearing against the triggering arm (12). Meanwhile, the lid (10) moves away from the front of the passage (7). Thus, the passage (7) is opened and air flow is provided from the volume wherein the fan (3) is situated to the side blowing holes (9), and air is provided to be blown into the cooking chamber (2) both from the back and from the sides. When the separator (5) is removed from the cooking chamber (2), the force applied by the separator (5) onto the triggering arm (12) is eliminated. Meanwhile, the lid (10) also rotates together with the shaft (11). The front of the passage (7) is closed by means of the lid (10) and air is blown into the cooking chamber (2) only from the back (FIG. 4, FIG. 5, FIG. 6).

(32) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises a connection member (15) that provides the shaft (11) to be mounted to the rear wall (4) and/or the side wall (8). The connection member (15) stands stationary on the rear wall (4) and/or the side wall (8) (FIG. 4, FIG. 5, FIG. 6).

(33) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises at least one intermediate member (17) located between the shaft (11) and the lid (10). Thus, depending on the movement of the shaft (11), the lid (10) moves, too (FIG. 4, FIG. 5, FIG. 6).

(34) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises at least one resilient member (13) located between the connection member (15) and the lid (10). While the separator (5) is placed into the cooking chamber (2), the shaft (11) and the intermediate member (17) move by means of the triggering arm (12) and by the movement of the intermediate member (17), the lid (10) moves away from the front of the passage (7). Meanwhile, the resilient member (13) between the stationary connection member (15) and the moving lid (10) is compressed. By the removal of the separator (5) from the cooking chamber (2), the pressure force applied by the separator (5) onto the triggering arm (12) is also eliminated. When the triggering arm (12) is released, the compressed resilient element (13) stretches and provides the lid (10) to move away from the front of the passage (7) (FIG. 5, FIG. 6).

(35) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises a resilient member (13) in the form of a spring.

(36) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises at least one recess (14) which is located on the rear wall (4) and wherein the triggering arm (12) is seated. While the user places the separator (5) into the cooking chamber (2), the triggering arm (12) is inserted into the recess (14). By the triggering arm (12) being completely inserted into the recess (14), the movement of the shaft (11) finally stops (FIG. 6, FIG. 7).

(37) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises at least one shaft (11) that extends in the vertical direction with respect to the triggering arm (12). The triggering arm (12) rotates as a result of the pressure applied onto the triggering arm (12) while the user places the separator (5) into the cooking chamber (2) and meanwhile, connected to the triggering arm (12), the shaft (11) rotates, too.

(38) In an embodiment of the present invention, the oven (1) comprises at least one holder (16) which is located on the connection member (15) and through which the shaft (11) passes, and which provides the shaft (11) to be mounted to the connection member (15). The holder (16) both provides the shaft (11) to be borne into the connection member (15) and enables the shaft (11) to move inside the connection member (15) by rotating (FIG. 5, FIG. 6).

(39) By means of the present invention, an oven (1) is realized wherein air is blown into the cooking chamber (2) both from the back and from the sides when the separator (5) is placed into the cooking chamber (2).
