Extendible oven rack apparatus

摘要

An extendible oven rack apparatus includes an oven rack, a lower frame and first and second slide assemblies connected between the oven rack and lower frame. A locking assembly is connected to the lower frame for selectively locking the lower frame into the oven. The locking assembly includes a locking pin laterally movable relative to the lower frame and a locking bar longitudinally slidable relative to the lower frame for selectively locking the locking pin its laterally outward position.

1. An extendible oven rack apparatus for use in an oven, the oven having an oven wall, the apparatus comprising:
an oven rack; a lower frame; first and second slide assemblies connected between the oven rack and the lower frame so that the oven rack is longitudinally slidable relative to the lower frame out of and into the oven; and a locking assembly connected to the lower frame for selectively locking the lower frame into the oven, the locking assembly including: a locking pin laterally movable relative to the lower frame between a laterally outward position and a laterally inward position; and a locking bar slidably connected to the lower frame and slidable relative to the lower frame in a straight generally longitudinal direction between a longitudinally inward locked position wherein the locking bar prevents the locking pin from moving from its laterally outward position to its laterally inward position, and a longitudinally outward unlocked position wherein the locking pin is free to move from its laterally outward position to its laterally inward position.
