A method for operating a cooking appliance, comprising: (a) providing a database with operating parameters of the cooking appliance; (b) obtaining recipe data from a recipe source; (c) extracting cooking process parameters from the obtained recipe data; (d) determining adapted cooking parameters by evaluating the extracted cooking process parameters in light of data from the database, and optionally of settings made by a user; and (e) operating the cooking appliance based on the adapted cooking parameters.

Method for operating a cooking appliance

A mobile device for communicating with a smart appliance is disclosed. The mobile device includes a sensing element for detecting a current value of an operational feature of the smart appliance. A memory including a database including a table of data of other values associated with operational features is included or accessible online. The mobile device includes a processor for accessing the database, comparing the relevant current and other values and, when they do not match, generate instructions to the smart appliance to adjust its settings so as to bring the current and other values into alignment. The mobile device is configured to communicate with the smart appliance in a first state wherein data flows from the smart appliance to the mobile device only; and in a second state wherein the data flows in both directions.

Method for data communication with a domestic appliance by a mobile computer device, mobile computer device and domestic appliance

A mobile device for communicating with a smart appliance and the Internet is disclosed. The mobile device includes a sensing element for detecting a current value of an operational features of the smart appliance. A memory including relationships between other values and operational features is provided. A processor is also provided for accessing the memory and comparing the current and other values to determine whether there is a match. If the values do not match, the process generates and sends instructions to the smart appliance to adjust its settings so as to bring the current and other values into alignment. The mobile device is also in communication with the Internet where the mobile device may draw upon online resources to perform or support performing any of the above steps.

A method for data communication with a domestic appliance by a mobile computer device. The domestic appliance and the mobile computer device are interconnected or interconnectable via a wireless data connection. The wireless data connection is adapted for transferring signals between the domestic appliance and the mobile computer device. Further, the present invention relates to application software for the mobile computer device. Moreover, the present invention relates to a domestic appliance. Additionally, the present invention relates to a mobile computer device including a display or touch screen.

A vacuum packaging arrangement comprises a drawer configured to cooperate with a kitchen cabinet, and a vacuum packaging device. The vacuum packaging device is functionally integrated in a ready-to-operate configuration within the drawer and provides, within the drawer, an operational interface to receive a minor first section of a vacuum bag, and to vacuum the vacuum bag upon activation of the vacuum packaging device. The vacuum packaging device is implemented such that a major second section of the vacuum bag comprising a closed end of the vacuum bag is arranged outside of the vacuum packaging device.

The present invention relates to a method for performing an automatic cooking process in an oven, wherein the oven is in a preheated state with a first starting temperature (T) in the beginning of said automatic cooking process. The method includes the following steps of switching off at least one heating element during a cooling down period () and finishing the cooling down period () after a cooling down time (t), when a predetermined first end temperature (T) has been reached. The cooling down time (t) is detected. The method includes the further steps of switching on at least one heating element during a heating up period () and finishing the heating up period () after a heating up time (t) and/or when a predetermined second end temperature (T) has been reached. A mathematical function () including the cooling down time (t) and the heating up time (t) is used in order to determine further parameters of the cooking process.

Method for performing an automatic cooking process

Method for controlling the temperature of an oven, in particular a kitchen oven, so as to reach a preset temperature through a heating process during a predetermined heating period based on a control program, said control program consisting of a general basic control program predefined for a given type of oven and computationally adjusted by a static correction value that reflects the individual oven parameters, and/or a dynamic correction variable that takes into account variable operating parameters of the oven.

Method for controlling the oven temperature, and temperature control unit

A cooking oven includes a heatable oven chamber () that can be loaded with product from the outside area (A) through a loading port (). An oven door () serves to close off the loading port () of the oven chamber () from the outside area (A). An inner pane () faces the oven chamber (), an outer pane () faces the outside area (A), and one or several intermediate panes () are positioned between the inner pane () and the outer pane (). An outer cavity () is between the outer pane () and the neighboring intermediate pane () and an inner cavity space () is between the inner pane () and the neighboring intermediate pane (). A cooling system moves cooling air (K) through the outer cavity () while thermally insulating air (I) can be held stationary in the inner cavity ().
