Reflector and gas oven range comprising the same

Abstract

A gas oven range and a reflector are provided. The gas oven range comprises an oven chamber in which food is cooked and an upper burner inside the oven chamber. The reflector reflects flame and heat and divides the oven chamber into a combustion space and an exhaust space. An exhaust hole is formed in the reflector to discharge combustion gas to the exhaust space, which is generated by combustion of gas at the burner in the combustion space. Therefore, incomplete combustion of gas is prevented, and leakage of flame and radiant heat generated by combustion of gas is prevented, thereby improving gas combustion efficiency.

1 . A reflector for reflecting flame and heat generated by combustion of gas at a burner disposed at an oven chamber, the reflector comprising a structure for preventing flame and heat generated by combustion of gas at the burner from leaking upward through gaps between both lateral end portions of the reflector and lateral surfaces of the oven chamber. 
     
     
         2 . The reflector according to  claim 1 , further comprising an exhaust hole configured to exhaust combustion gas generated by combustion of gas at the burner toward a side opposite to the burner. 
     
     
         3 . The reflector according to  claim 2 , wherein the exhaust hole is formed by cutting out the reflector partially. 
     
     
         4 . The reflector according to  claim 1 , wherein the reflector is bent a plurality of times. 
     
     
         5 . The reflector according to  claim 2 , further comprising a cover part spaced apart from the exhaust hole in a direction where combustion gas is discharged through the exhaust hole. 
     
     
         6 . A reflector comprising:
 a reflection part configured to reflect flame and heat generated by combustion of gas at a burner;   an exhaust hole configured to discharge combustion gas generated by combustion of gas at the burner toward a side opposite to the burner; and   a fixing flange configured to fix the reflection part to an oven chamber.   
     
     
         7 . The reflector according to  claim 6 , wherein the reflection part comprises: at least one first connection surface; and
 at least two oblique surfaces extending from both sides of the first connection surface in a direction opposite to the burner.   
     
     
         8 . The reflector according to  claim 7 , wherein the reflection part further comprises a second connection surface configured to connect neighboring oblique surfaces. 
     
     
         9 . The reflector according to  claim 6 , wherein the fixing flange is formed by bending a portion of the reflection part. 
     
     
         10 . The reflector according to  claim 6 , wherein the exhaust hole is formed by cutting out the reflection part partially. 
     
     
         11 . The reflector according to  claim 6 , further comprising a cover part spaced apart from the exhaust hole in a direction where combustion gas is discharged through the exhaust hole. 
     
     
         12 . The reflector according to  claim 11 , wherein the cover part has a shape and size corresponding to the exhaust hole. 
     
     
         13 . The reflector according to  claim 11 , wherein the cover part is a separate part fixed to the reflection part, or the cover part and the reflection part are formed in one piece. 
     
     
         14 . A reflector comprising:
 a reflection part configured to reflect flame and heat generated by combustion of gas at a burner, for cooking food placed in an oven chamber;   compartment parts extending from both sides of the reflection part to positions close to or contacting lateral surfaces of the oven chamber, the compartment parts being configured to prevent flame and heat of the burner from leaking to a side opposite to the burner through gaps between lateral end portions of the compartment parts and the lateral surfaces of the oven chamber; and   a fixing flange configured to fix the reflection part to the oven chamber.   
     
     
         15 . The reflector according to  claim 14 , further comprising an exhaust hole configured to exhaust combustion gas generated by combustion of gas at the burner toward a side opposite to the burner. 
     
     
         16 . The reflector according to  claim 15 , wherein the gaps between the lateral end portions of the compartment parts and the lateral surfaces of the oven chamber are smaller than a width of the exhaust hole measured in the same direction. 
     
     
         17 . The reflector according to  claim 15 , wherein the exhaust hole is formed by cutting out the reflection part and the compartment part partially. 
     
     
         18 . The reflector according to  claim 14 , further comprising a cover part spaced apart from the exhaust hole in a direction where combustion gas is discharged through the exhaust hole. 
     
     
         19 . The reflector according to  claim 18 , wherein the cover part has a shape and size corresponding to the exhaust hole. 
     
     
         20 . The reflector according to  claim 18 , wherein the cover part is a separate part fixed to the reflection part, or the cover part and the reflection part are formed in one piece.
