Oven
An oven includes a collision area in which air circulating inside a cooking compartment is collided to reduce the pollution inside of the cooking compartment. A collision area may collectively collect an oil mist condensed by the collision of the air. The collision area is disposed on the side where the flow of air is changed to induce air collision and guide the air to the front side of the cooking compartment to increase air circulation and increase ease of cleaning inside the cooking compartment.

the second flow path forms an angle of at least 80 degrees with the first flow path.
4. The oven of claim 1 , wherein the collision area is provided on a corner where a rear surface of the cooking compartment and an upper surface of the cooking compartment are connected.
5. The oven of claim 1 , wherein the collision area includes a catalyst coating portion disposed on a surface of the collision area and configured to act as a catalyst when the oil mist condensed on the collision area by the collision of the circulated air with the collision area is burned.
6. The oven of claim 1 , wherein the collision area includes a surface heating coating portion disposed on a surface of the collision area and configured to heat the oil mist condensed on the collision area by the collision of the circulated air with the collision area.
7. The oven of claim 1 , wherein the collision area includes an auxiliary heater disposed adjacent to the collision area and configured to heat the oil mist condensed on the collision area by the collision of the circulated air with the collision area.
8. The oven of claim 1 , wherein the heater includes a hot-wire and a plurality of fins disposed on the hot-wire.
9. The oven of claim 1 , wherein the heater includes a hot-wire and a mesh member to cover the hot-wire.
10. The oven of claim 2 , further comprising a fan side heater surrounding the fan on an outer circumferential side of the fan,
wherein the cover member further includes an inlet through which air is introduced to the cover member and a filter disposed on the inlet.
11. The oven of claim 1 , further comprising a collision member disposed adjacent to an outlet through which air circulated by the fan is discharged to an outside of the cover member,
wherein the collision area is provided on the collision member.
12. The oven of claim 11 , wherein the outlet is formed toward an upper surface of the cooking compartment connected to a first surface of the cooking compartment, and
the collision member is inclined from the upper surface of the cooking compartment.
13. The oven of claim 11 , wherein the collision member is disposed to be inclined with respect to a direction of air flow discharged from the outlet.
14. The oven of claim 2 , wherein the cover further comprises an inlet having a circular shape through which air circulated by the fan flows into the cover and an outlet through which air circulated by the fan is discharged to an outside of the cover, and
provided so that a shortest distance between the fan and the outlet is longer than a longest distance between a center of the inlet and an outer perimeter of the inlet.
15. An oven comprising:
a case;
a cooking compartment provided inside the case;
a heater configured to heat the cooking compartment;
a fan disposed in the cooking compartment and configured to circulate air inside the cooking compartment;
a cover disposed in the cooking compartment and configured to cover the fan and having a bent portion provided at a corner of the cooking compartment; and
an air flow path formed between the cover and a surface of the cooking compartment in which the air circulated by the fan flows,
wherein the cover includes a first cover portion to suck air into the air flow path and guide the air of the air flow path to a collision area where air collides on a surface of the cooking compartment, and a second cover portion provided to discharge the air of the air flow path and to which the heater is mounted, and
wherein a plurality of bumps are formed on a surface of the second cover portion, and the heater and an outlet through which the air in the air flow path is discharged are disposed on the plurality of bumps.
16. The oven of claim 15 , wherein the collision area provided on the corner and configured to redirect the flow of air in the air flow path and received from the fan, so that at least a portion of the air is redirected in a different direction and at least a portion of an oil mist suspended in the air is condensed on the collision area, such that condensation of the oil mist in the cooking compartment is concentrated in the collision area.
17. The oven of claim 15 , wherein
the cover includes an inlet through which air is introduced into the cover,
the air flow path includes a first flow path provided between the inlet and the collision area, and a second flow path provided between the collision area and the outlet, and
the second flow path forms an angle of at least 80 degrees with the first flow path.
18. The oven of claim 16 , wherein the collision area includes a combustion promoting coating portion disposed on a surface of the collision area and configured to promote a burning of the oil mist condensed on the collision area.
