Conveyor toaster oven

摘要

A conveyor toaster has air chambers at opposite sides and at the top of the oven for reducing surface temperatures of the out side housing panels of the oven which a worker might touch. A wire link conveyor belt extending through the oven and carrying food products at a speed which toasts those food product during their dwell time within the oven. The conveyor belt is tensioned by a spring bias so that a force directed against the spring bias creates a slack which enables an installation, removal, and reinstallation of the conveyor belt. A heating element is supported at a height above the belt which may be during manufacturing to accommodate the height of a food product conveyed by the conveyor. A loading rack at the front of the housing has two stable positions for enabling either batch loading or continuous loading.
