Rotary Toaster

Abstract

A toaster is provided with rotary slots propelled by an electric motor. The toaster utilizes infrared waves to heat or bake breads such as bagel, muffins or the like and is provided with a sensor that discontinues infrared heating after the temperature reaches a certain set temperature.

Claims

1. An electrical appliance for complete heating of a bread, comprising: at least one heating unit having at least one heating unit; at least one electric motor; at least one rotary slot; and, at least one spiral drive. a temperature sensor housed in said heating unit wherein said temperature sensor is set by a user to a specific temperature limit.; and, a mechanism to lower the bread into a cavity wherein said at least one heating unit facilitates heating the bread using infrared waves.

2. The electrical appliance for complete heating of a bread according to claim 1, wherein the electrical appliance is a toaster.

3. The electrical appliance for complete heating of a bread according to claim 2, wherein at least one said electric motor facilitates rotational movement of at least one said rotary slot.

4. The electrical appliance for complete heating of a bread according to claim 3, wherein the at least one said spiral drive is configured to at least one said rotary slot.

5. The electrical appliance for complete heating of a bread according to claim 4, wherein the bread is evenly heated using at least one said spiral drive.

6. The electrical appliance for complete heating of a bread according to claim 1, wherein said sensor discontinues heating the bread when the temperature inside the toaster reaches said set specific temperature limit.

7. The electrical appliance for complete heating of a bread according to claim 6, wherein heated bread pops out of a said rotary slot upon discontinuation of heating.

Description

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE SEVERAL VIEWS OF THE DRAWINGS

[0013] The invention will be better understood and objects other than those set forth above will become apparent when consideration is given to the following detailed description thereof. Such description makes reference to the annexed drawings wherein:

[0014] FIG. 1 depicts a top view of the toaster with rotary slots.

[0015] FIG. 2 depicts a side view of the toaster with rotary slots.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0016] Referring now to FIG. 1, there is shown and illustrated a top view of one preferred embodiment of a toaster of the present invention. The toaster 10 of the present invention has two equal sections. Each section or unit comprises an electric motor 20, a spiral drive 30 and a mechanism 40 to lower the bread or bagel into the toaster. Referring now to FIG. 2, there is shown and illustrated a side view of the toaster 10 that houses an electric motor 20 on one side, a spiral drive 30, a mechanism 40 to lower the bread, bagel or like into the toaster and a rotating slot 50 rotating at a certain speed and completing a full circle. The rotating slot 50 is configured with the spiral drive 30 to heat the bread or bagel completely and evenly.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the invention the bread to be baked or toasted is placed inside and lowered manually into position using the lowering mechanism 40. The lowered bread is surrounded on both the sides by the rotating slots 50 configured with the spiral drive 30. Once the toaster 10 is plugged into a power source, the electric motor 20 installed in each half of the toaster 10 powers the slots 50 to rotate. The slots 50 due to their rotating movement and infrared waves radiated by spiral drive 30 provide even heating to whole bread including the edges. A temperature sensing sensor (not shown) is housed inside the toaster 10 and discontinues heating the bread when the temperature reaches a specific temperature that is equal to a temperature limit already set by the user. Once the infrared heating is stopped the toasts in both halves pop out automatically. It may be noted that the space or cavity between the two adjacent rotary slots 50 is enough to accommodate any type of bread or bagel that is too large or having very odd shape.

[0018] While the present invention has been described with reference to particular embodiments, it should be understood that the embodiments are illustrative and that the scope of the invention is not limited to these embodiments. It is contemplated that variations, modifications, additions and improvements fall within the scope of the invention.
