Sealing Device For An Oven Door

Abstract

The present device relates to a sealing device for an oven door. A groove or channel ( 2 g ) is formed on the door case ( 2 ) of the oven ( 1 ), and a sealing gasket (P) is attached to an interior surface of the groove or channel ( 2 g ). An extrusion ( 3 t ) is formed on the frame ( 3 f ) of the door ( 3 ), aligned for insertion into the groove ( 2 g ). Therefore, if the door ( 3 ) is closed, the extrusion, ( 3 t ) formed on the frame ( 3 f ) of the door ( 3 ) is inserted into the groove or channel ( 2 g ) coming in firm elastic contact with the gasket (P) and sealing the oven firmly. Sealing contact is maintained between the oven door ( 3 ) and door case ( 2 ), while protecting the gasket (P) from damage.

1 . A seating device for an oven door in an oven ( 1 ) having a hinged door ( 3 ) for opening to and from a door case ( 2 ) of the oven, comprising:
 a) a groove or channel ( 2   g ) formed on an exterior perimeter of the door case ( 2 );   b) a scaling gasket (P) attached to an interior surface of the groove or channel ( 2   g ); and   c) an extrusion ( 3   t ) formed on an interior of the frame ( 3   f ) of the door ( 3 ), wherein the extrusion ( 3   t ) is aligned with the groove or channel ( 2   g );   whereby upon placing the door ( 3 ) in a closed configuration a portion of the extrusion ( 3   t ) contacts the rubber gasket (P), providing a sealing contact between the door ( 3 ) and the door case ( 2 ).
