International Classification:

A21B 1/26
A21D 8/06

US Classification:

426510, 219400, 426523

Abstract:

A convection oven having a vapor collection system; water injection system; easily accessible electrical components; and a variable-speed, reversible blower is disclosed. The vapor collection system collects vapor from the cooking chamber during a cooking event, condenses the vapor, and drains the condensed vapor. The water injection system injects water for impact against a blower wheel for dispersion into the air circulating through the cooking chamber. The electrical components are housed within a housing that in a closed position conceals the components and in a closed position exposes the components for easy access. The rotational speed and direction of the variable-speed, reversible blower is controlled during a cooking event according to predetermined speed curves which may include one or more reversal events to achieve more uniform cooking of food. A main controller is programmable via an operator input (e.g., liquid crystal display touch screen) to control operating parameters of the oven.

International Classification:

B60J 04

US Classification:

296221

Abstract:

A sliding and venting sunroof includes a perforated tape drive system, an overlapping groove panel positioning device and a "one-touch" power sunroof control. The drive system uses a single gear to drive two tapes. The overlapping groove mechanism includes a fixed plate with a groove therein, a slidable plate with a groove therein, and a lift arm with a pin that can simultaneously ride in both grooves. The sunroof control does not allow sunroof closing in the absence of a continuous indication from an operator that the sunroof is to be closed, but allows full opening by instantaneous indication from an operator.
