AN IMPROVEMENT IN OR RELATING TO OVEN CONTROL SYSTEM INCLUDING SINGLE DIAL CONTROL

摘要

A single-dial oven control is provided for a heat-cleaning oven in which rotation of the dial throughout the greater portion of its rotatable range covers the normal cooking temperature range, with rotation to a point in the remaining part of the rotatable range setting the control for a heat-cleaning operation in the oven. The control includes switch means connected directly in series with the electrical heating means in the oven and incorporates an arrangement for converting linear rotational motion of the user-operated shaft into nonlinear axial motion of means for changing the temperature setting.
