Support for extractable baking trays and/or baking grids

Abstract

Support for extractable baking trays and/or baking grids to be arranged in an oven cavity of a baking oven, comprising pairs of opposed longish guiding means, which are disposed one above the other and extend along side walls of the oven cavity, and slide elements comprising receiving means for receiving a baking tray and/or a baking grid and being slidingly arranged at the guiding means, wherein stopper means are provided in such a manner, that the extraction sliding movement of the slide elements along the guiding means is stopped before the slide elements project beyond the oven cavity.

         2 . Support ( 18 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that biasing means ( 36 ) are provided, in particular at least one spring, for biasing the slide elements ( 26 ) towards the opening ( 14 ) of the oven cavity ( 12 ). 
     
     
         3 . Support ( 18 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that at least two opposed slide elements ( 26 ) are interconnected by means of at least one connecting element ( 32 ). 
     
     
         4 . Support according to  claim 3 , characterized in that all slide elements ( 26 ) are interconnected by at least one connecting element, preferably a connecting plate. 
     
     
         5 . Support ( 18 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the receiving means ( 28 ,  30 ) are at least partially punched and subsequently bent sections of the slide elements ( 26 ). 
     
     
         6 . Support ( 18 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the receiving means ( 28 ,  30 ) comprise hook elements ( 38 ) for encompassing an upper side portion of a baking tray ( 17 ) and/or a baking grid. 
     
     
         7 . Support ( 18 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the receiving means ( 28 ,  30 ) comprise upwardly projecting receiving elements ( 30 ), in particular welding studs, to be inserted into corresponding openings provided in the baking trays ( 17 ) and/or baking grids to be received. 
     
     
         8 . Support ( 18 ) according to  claim 1 , characterized in that the guiding means ( 24 ) and/or the slide elements ( 26 ) are made of plastics and/or aluminum and/or stainless steel. 
     
     
         9 . (canceled) 
     
     
         10 . Support ( 18 ) according to  claim 6 , characterized in that at least one protector ( 38 ), in particular a protector bar or rail, is provided at the inner side of the oven door ( 16 ) for preventing a contact between a baking tray ( 17 ) and/or a baking grid and the oven door ( 16 ).
