OVEN WITH DIVIDER HAVING ADJUSTABLE HEAT TRANSMISSION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240044509 titled 'OVEN WITH DIVIDER HAVING ADJUSTABLE HEAT TRANSMISSION

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a patent application for a divider for an oven. The divider includes a first panel that separates the oven cavity into upper and lower sub-cavities. The first panel has a plurality of apertures. A second panel is slidably mounted to the first panel and also has a plurality of apertures. The second panel can be moved relative to the first panel between a heat transmission position and a closed position, aligning or unaligning the apertures of the second panel with the apertures of the first panel.

  • The divider can be integrated or permanently installed in an oven, or it can be a removable accessory.
  • The first panel spatially separates the oven cavity into upper and lower sub-cavities.
  • The first panel has a plurality of apertures.
  • The second panel is slidably mounted to the first panel.
  • The second panel has a plurality of apertures.
  • The second panel can be moved relative to the first panel between a heat transmission position and a closed position.
  • The apertures of the second panel can be aligned or unaligned with the apertures of the first panel.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Allows for separate cooking in the upper and lower sub-cavities of the oven.
  • Enables different cooking temperatures or cooking methods in each sub-cavity.
  • Provides flexibility in oven usage for different types of dishes or cooking preferences.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Allows for efficient use of oven space by dividing the cavity into separate sub-cavities.
  • Prevents cross-contamination of flavors or aromas between dishes being cooked simultaneously.
  • Provides versatility in cooking options by allowing for different cooking temperatures or methods in each sub-cavity.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Maximizes oven efficiency by utilizing the entire oven cavity for cooking multiple dishes at the same time.
  • Enhances cooking flexibility and convenience by accommodating different cooking needs simultaneously.
  • Improves cooking results by preventing flavors or aromas from mixing between dishes.


Original Abstract Submitted

a divider for an oven includes a first panel configured to spatially separate the oven cavity into respective upper and lower sub-cavities. the first panel defines a first plurality of apertures therethrough. a second panel is slidably mounted to the first panel and defines a second plurality of apertures that are collectively moveable relative to the first plurality of apertures by sliding of the second panel relative to the first panel between a heat transmission position and a closed position, wherein the ones of the second plurality of apertures are respectively aligned and unaligned with the respective ones of the first apertures. in various aspects, the divider may be configured as an integrated or permanently installed feature of an oven or may be a removable accessory for use with an oven.
