Abstract:
A method for controlling a freezing phase in a single-control combined type refrigeration appliance comprises activating said freezing phase, including turning on a compressor and monitoring only a refrigerator temperature of a refrigerator compartment and a evaporator temperature of an evaporator associated with the refrigerator and a freezer. During the freezing phase, if the refrigerator temperature is greater than a predetermined upper refrigerator threshold, a fan associated with the refrigerator compartment is turned on until said refrigerator temperature is lower than a predetermined lower refrigerator threshold. Further, if the evaporator temperature is less than a predetermined lower evaporator threshold, the fan is turned on until the evaporator temperature is above a predetermined upper evaporator threshold. If the refrigerator temperature is lower than a predetermined minimum refrigerator temperature, the compressor is turned off. The method further includes deactivating said freezing phase after a given time has elapsed following said activation.
Abstract:
A household cooking appliance, in particular an oven, comprises a cooking chamber defined by a muffle having a flue with a fume outlet at an upper wall of the muffle, and a front door, for opening and closing the cooking chamber. The appliance further comprises a delivery channel, defined by a duct body that extends above the upper wall of the muffle, the duct body having an outlet of the delivery channel that is substantially at a front region of the appliance, above an upper portion of the door, and having a fume inlet in a lower wall of the duct body, which is in fluid communication with the fume outlet of the muffle and with the delivery channel. Operatively associated to the duct body is a ventilation assembly, so as to draw in fumes from the fume outlet of the muffle and expel them from the outlet of the delivery channel, the ventilation assembly being in a rear end region of the duct body that is generally opposite to the outlet of the delivery channel. The ventilation assembly comprises a radial fan with a centrifugal impeller inside the duct body, the centrifugal impeller being positioned above the fume inlet of the duct body substantially coaxial thereto and to the fume outlet of the muffle in such a way that at least the fumes are drawn in from the fume outlet substantially in the direction of the axis (X) of the impeller and forced in a radial direction into the delivery channel for being expelled from the corresponding outlet. The rear end region of the duct body has a generally rounded peripheral profile so as to form a volute of the radial fan, the duct body preferably having a shape generally tapered towards its rear end region and comprising a lower half-shell and an upper half-shell. Provided inside the duct body, within the boundaries of the delivery channel, is a flow-deflector element configured for rendering the flow forced by the centrifugal impeller into the delivery channel uniform.
Abstract:
The invention relates to an oven for household use, wherein the controls provided on the front control panel are protected against high temperatures by a ventilation system.The latter comprises a cooling air channel supported by shape coupling with the panel where the cooling air inlet and outlet apertures are located.
Abstract:
A refrigerating appliance comprises a cabinet, at least one door, and at least one hinge allowing the door to rotate about an axis for opening and closing, and further comprising at least one bracket configured to support the hinge, and at least one flexible tubular element inserted on one side in the cabinet and on the other side in the door. The flexible tubular element is configured to exit through a top wall of the cabinet, and is further configured to enter a cavity of the door by passing through a slot formed in the top wall of the door. The slot partially surrounds the hinge, and the slot is partially under the bracket when the door is closed.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a door (3) of a domestic cooking oven (1), in particular of the pyrolytic type. The door (3) comprises at least a first and a second plate (31, 32) and a first and a second upright beam (8, 9). The first plate (31) defines an outer surface of the door (3) and the two upright beams (8, 9) receiving at least the second plate (32) are fixed internally relative thereto. The door (3) further comprises a first and a second locking element (14, 15) removably engaged to the first and second upright beams (8, 9) and configured to be selectively movable between an operating position, wherein they are engaged to the respective upright beams (8, 9) in such a way as to lock at least the second plate (32) in a mounting position, and at least one unlocked position, wherein they enable the second plate (32) to be extracted from the door (3).
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an oven (101) comprising a heated cavity (102) for cooking a food (201), supporting means (103) positioned in the heated cavity (102) and configured for supporting a shelf (105) in the heated cavity (102); the supporting means (103) comprise at least one weight sensor (104) configured for detecting the weight of a food (201) positioned on the shelf (105).
Abstract:
Oven comprising: a muffle; operating means for heating an active zone defined within the volume delimited by said muffle; a camera for detecting one or more images showing food positioned in said active zone; a transmission unit associated with said camera and configured for sending said one or more images to an auxiliary device configured for at least displaying said one or more images.
Abstract:
A control device for an electrical appliance operatively set between an electrical supply line of the electrical appliance and a corresponding alternating current (AC) voltage supply source, the control device having a digital control system that encodes information via controlled interruptions of the AC voltage of supply of the electrical appliance and has a first controllable switch managing in an ON-OFF mode the AC voltage from the supply source to the electrical appliance, wherein the encoding comprises carrying out a coding of information as sequences of interruptions having fixed duration of the AC voltage of supply of the electrical appliance, said interruptions having fixed duration being separated by a corresponding interval having variable duration, wherein the information to be transmitted is associated to the variable duration of the interval and the fixed duration of the interruptions is such as not to perturb operation of the electrical appliance.
