Abstract

The oven ( 1 ) of the present invention comprises a body ( 2 ), at least one oven cavity ( 3 ), a casing ( 4 ) surrounding the oven cavity ( 3 ) and at least one opening ( 5 ) disposed on the casing ( 4 ) that allows delivery of hot and humid air from the oven ( 1 ) to the exterior environment, at least one transmitting member ( 9, 109 ) that provides the assembly of the carrier ( 8 ) on the body ( 2 ), at least one discharge pipe ( 6, 106 ), one end connected to the opening ( 5 ) and the other end to nipple ( 7, 107 ) and starting from the casing ( 4 ) maintains the successive contact of the metal surfaces to each other thus providing the flow of electricity by delivering a probable electric leak to the ground for grounding the oven ( 1 ).

Claims (27)

1. An oven ( 1 ) comprising

a body ( 2 ),

at least one oven cavity ( 3 ) disposed inside the body ( 2 ),

a casing ( 4 ) surrounding the oven cavity ( 3 ),

at least one opening ( 5 ) located on the casing ( 4 ),

at least one carrier ( 8 ) disposed on the body ( 2 ),

at least one transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ) that provides assembly of the carrier ( 8 ) on the body ( 2 ),

at least one discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ), one end connected to the opening ( 5 ) and other end to the carrier ( 8 ),

at least one resilient element ( 12 ) surrounding the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) with one end contacting the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) and the other end fastened on the carrier ( 8 ) so as to contact the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ), wherein the at least one resilient element is produced from metal material and provides grounding of electricity by connecting the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) and the body ( 2 ) to each other, and by maintaining the connection between metal surfaces by means of the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ),

wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ) is disposed between the carrier ( 8 ) and the body ( 2 ).

2. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , wherein the at least one transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ) is produced from metal material, and includes a screw or a housing wherein the screw is disposed.

3. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 2 , wherein the resilient element ( 12 ) prevents dislodging of the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) from the carrier ( 8 ) and secures the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) to the carrier ( 8 ) by its end that contacts the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) by externally surrounding the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ).

4. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 3 , further comprising at least two detent means ( 11 , 101 ) disposed on the carrier ( 8 ) that prevent movement of the resilient element ( 12 ) from its secured location.

5. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 4 , wherein the at least two detent means ( 11 , 101 ) positioned on the carrier ( 8 ) one over the other, so as to face each other oppositely, prevent movement of the resilient element ( 12 ) from its secured location.

6. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 5 , wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ) is disposed so as to contact the metal surface of the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ) on the carrier ( 8 ).

7. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ), made by bending a metal wire with elastic features, is shaped so as to contact the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) and the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ), is supported by two detent means ( 11 , 101 ) and positioned by being squeezed in between the detent means ( 11 , 101 ).

8. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ) has two clamps ( 13 , 103 ) of almost circular shape that at least partially surround the discharge pipes ( 6 , 106 ).

9. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ) is bent so as to contact the metal surface of the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ) on the carrier ( 8 ) and includes bends as much as the number of the transmitting members ( 9 , 109 ).

10. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 8 , wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ) has two arms ( 4 , 104 ) that extend from one end of the clamps ( 13 , 103 ) almost vertically to the plane where the clamps ( 13 , 103 ) are located.

11. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 10 , wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ), has a connecting rod ( 10 ) that joins the arms ( 14 , 104 ) and extend along the plane where the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ) is disposed on the carrier ( 8 ).

12. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 8 , wherein the at least one resilient element ( 12 ) has arms ( 14 , 104 ) that extend approximately from the level of the discharge pipes ( 6 , 106 ) almost vertically to the clamps ( 13 , 103 ), towards the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ) and in the direction to be placed in between the detent means ( 11 , 101 ).

13. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , wherein the carrier ( 8 ) has at least one hollow nipple ( 7 , 107 ) that extends towards into the body ( 2 ) and whereto one end of the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) is connected.

14. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , wherein the transmitting member ( 9 , 109 ) is integrated on the carrier ( 8 ) in the form of an insert, and is produced from metal material.

15. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , wherein the resilient element ( 12 ) prevents dislodging of the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) from the carrier ( 8 ) and secures the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) to the carrier ( 8 ) by its end that contacts the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ) externally surrounding the discharge pipe ( 6 , 106 ).

16. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , further comprising at least two detent means ( 11 , 101 ) disposed on the carrier ( 8 ) that prevent movement of the resilient element ( 12 ) from its secured location.

17. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 16 , wherein the at least two detent means ( 11 , 101 ) positioned on the carrier ( 8 ) one over the other, so as to face each other oppositely, prevent movement of the resilient element ( 12 ) from its secured location.

18. The oven ( 1 ) as in claim 1 , further comprising least two detent means ( 11 , 101 ) positioned on the carrier ( 8 ) one over the other, so as to face each other oppositely, and that prevent movement of the resilient element ( 12 ) from its secured location.
