Cooking device

Abstract

A cooking device includes a cooking chamber and a lighting unit for illuminating the cooking chamber. The lighting unit includes a light source and a reflector having at least one reflector area, which reflects the light from the light source into the cooking chamber as diffuse scattered light (D). The lighting unit includes at least a second reflector area, which reflects light from the light source into the cooking chamber as one or more light cones (K).

       22 . A cooking device, comprising: 
 a cooking chamber;    a lighting unit for illuminating said cooking chamber;    said lighting unit including at least a first reflector and a light source;    said first reflector including at least a first reflector surface which reflects the light from said light source into said cooking chamber as diffuse scattered light (D);    said first reflector including at least one second transverse reflector surface arranged transversely to said first reflector surface which reflects the light of said light source into said cooking chamber in a focused manner;    said first reflector surface constructed as a curved groove shape and having front ends of said first reflector surface constructed as a curved groove shape and closed by transverse reflector surfaces.    
   
   
       23 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including said traverse reflector surfaces reflect the light into said cooking chamber as a light cone (K).  
   
   
       24 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including said traverse reflector surfaces reflect the light into said cooking chamber in an almost parallel beam profile.  
   
   
       25 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including said traverse reflector surfaces constructed as one of a substantially flat or a substantially arched surface.  
   
   
       26 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including a first one of said transverse reflector surfaces deflects the light of said light source in the direction of the other of said transverse reflector surfaces.  
   
   
       27 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including said first reflector surface delimits a light guiding compartment.  
   
   
       28 . The cooking device according to  claim 27 , including said transverse reflector surfaces arranged in said light guiding compartment.  
   
   
       29 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including at least one of said first and second reflector surfaces constructed in one piece with said reflector.  
   
   
       30 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including a rounded transition surface formed between said first reflector surface and said second transverse reflector surface.  
   
   
       31 . The cooking device according to  claim 22 , including a roughened surface structure on at least of said second transverse reflector.  
   
   
       32 . The cooking device according to  claim 27 , including a cooking device door for closing said cooking chamber and said reflector arranged in said cooking device door.  
   
   
       33 . The cooking device according to  claim 27 , including said light guiding compartment of said reflector includes at least a portion substantially transparent to said cooking chamber.  
   
   
       34 . The cooking device according to  claim 27 , including a light channel opaque towards the outside of said light guiding compartment formed in at least a portion of said reflector.  
   
   
       35 . The cooking device according to  claim 32 , including said light source arranged outside said cooking device door and emits light in the direction of said reflector.  
   
   
       36 . The cooking device according to  claim 32 , including said light guiding compartment of said reflector is closed on the interior side of said door.  
   
   
       37 . The cooking device according to  claim 36 , including said door including a door inner pane facing said cooking chamber and said reflector together with said door inner pane closes said light guiding compartment.  
   
   
       38 . The cooking device according to  claim 32 , including at least one mounting section for affixing said reflector inside said cooking device door formed on said reflector  
   
   
       39 . The cooking device according to  claim 32 , including said door including a door intermediate pane and at least one retaining attachment constructed in said cooking device door for retaining said intermediate pane.  
   
   
       40 . The cooking device according to  claim 27 , including said transverse reflector surfaces arranged in said light-guiding compartment of said reflector are arranged offset with respect to one another.
