The present invention relates to an exhaust closure system () for a cooking oven. Said exhaust closure system () is inter-connectable or interconnected between a top wall () of an oven cavity () and an exhaust channel. The exhaust closure system () comprises a lower casing () attachable or attached on the top wall () of the oven cavity () and including at least one inlet opening () in its bottom side. The exhaust closure system () comprises an upper casing () connectable or connected to the exhaust channel and including at least one outlet opening () in its top side. The lower casing () and the upper casing () are permanently or detachably jointed and form a housing of the exhaust closure system (). A stationary plate () and a sliding plate () are arranged inside the housing and between the inlet opening () and the outlet opening (). The stationary plate () and the sliding plate () lie against each other and include at least one opening () in each case. The sliding plate () is slidable relating to the stationary plate () between a closed state and an opened state. The at least one opening () of the stationary plate () is covered by the sliding plate () in the closed state, while the at least one opening () of the sliding plate () is covered by the stationary plate () in the closed state. The openings () of the stationary plate () and the sliding plate () overlap at least partially in the opened state. Further, the present invention relates to a cooking oven with at least one exhaust closure system ().

A microwave oven or multifunctional oven with microwave heating function. The oven includes a cavity with an open front side and a front frame enclosing at least partially a front portion of the cavity. The cavity and the front frame include metal sheet. The front frame is connected to the cavity by fixing elements. A gap is formed between the cavity and the front frame. The gap encloses at least partially the front portion of the cavity and the front frame encloses the gap. The oven includes a door covering the open front side and the gap in a closed state of the door. The gap is at least partially filled by a gasket at least part of which includes one or more materials having low heat conductivity, so that the front frame is thermally decoupled from the cavity by the part of the gasket or the gap.

The present invention relates to an oven door for a microwave oven or for an oven with microwave heating function. The oven door includes a wave choke system formed as a door frame or within a door frame of the oven door. The wave choke system () encloses a see-through area of the oven door. The wave choke system includes a frame part and several wave choke elements. The frame part includes a base plate. The wave choke elements are fastened on the base plate (). The base plate is arranged parallel to a main plane of the oven door. The wave choke elements are serially arranged along the frame part and at least partially enclose the see-through area of the oven door. The wave choke element is formed as a U-shaped metal stripe. The series of wave choke elements on the base plate form a wavelike ribbon. A notch is formed in the central portion of the wave choke element, so that the central portion of the wave choke element is smaller than the open end portion of the wave choke element. The notches of the wave choke elements are provided for receiving an inner glass panel of the oven door. At least two neighbored wave choke elements are arranged along the same side of the oven door include aligned notches for receiving the same edge of the inner glass panel. Further, the present invention relates to a wave choke system for an oven door of a microwave oven or of an oven with microwave heating function. Moreover, the present invention relates to a microwave oven or an oven with microwave heating function.

Push button switch assembly for insertion in a control panel of a domestic appliance, the push button switch assembly comprising at least one push button having a push button cap and a separately formed actuating element, in particular an actuating pin, which extends between the push button cap and an electric switching element of the domestic appliance and upon actuating of the push button cap cooperates therewith and acts on the electric switching element to effect a switching operation, and a frame receiving and guiding the at least one push button cap, wherein at least one spring leg is arranged at the actuating element, which counteracts the actuating of the push button cap.

Push button switch assembly

Push button switch assembly, in particular for insertion in a control panel of a domestic appliance, the push button switch assembly comprising at least one push button and a frame for receiving the at least one push button, wherein the push button has a push button cap, whose top wall or rather upper side is to be manipulated by a user, and an actuating element, in particular an actuating pin, for actuating a switch, especially a micro switch, of a circuit board arranged underneath the push button switch assembly upon actuation of the push button cap, wherein the push button cap is provided with spring legs resting on a frame bottom and counteracting the actuation of the push button cap, characterized in that at least two spring legs are provided, which are formed in a rotationally symmetric or in an axially symmetric arrangement at the push button cap.

The invention relates to a domestic oven (), having a cavity () and a carrier structure () connected with the cavity (), wherein the carrier structure () comprises at least two side panels () arranged in the side regions () of the oven () and a component plate (), wherein the component plate () is connected with the side panels (), wherein the side panels () extend in vertical direction (V) and in a first horizontal direction (H) and wherein the component plate () extends in a horizontal transverse direction (T) perpendicular to the first horizontal direction (H). To eliminate tensions in the carrier structure due to thermal expansion in an easy and cheap way, the invention is characterized in that the component plate () has at least one carrier extension () extending in transverse direction (T) which extends in a corresponding first opening () with at least one bearing surface () in the side panel (), so that a relative movement in transverse direction (T) is allowed between the side panel () and the component plate ().
