ABSTRACT:
A bakery oven, of the type employing a continuous spiral conveyor for carrying the goods to be baked through the oven enclosure, employs an air distribution system to direct heated air from near the top wall of the oven enclosure to a plenum chamber, and from there through a pipe distribution network to at least certain ones of the tiers of the spiral conveyor. Preferably, heater elements are disposed beneath alternate ones of the tiers of the conveyor system within the oven enclosure, while the air distribution pipes are disposed parallel to and beneath the remaining tiers. This arrangement serves to decrease fuel consumption for the burners, thereby increasing productivity, and further serves to decrease the stratification of heat layers within the oven enclosure, thereby providing uniform baking conditions throughout the oven enclosure.
