DETAILED EXHIBITION OF THE INVENTION
Figure 1 shows a perspective view of an appliance 1 in which
30 can implement the method of the invention, and Figure 1 B shows a schematic representation of said home appliance 1. Home appliance 1 comprises an enclosure 2, a control unit 6, a gas heating element and at least one element of incandescence 3. Said gas heating element comprises a gas burner 4 and an electrovalve 5 comprising an open position where the passage of gas to the burner 4 is allowed and a closed position where the passage of gas to the burner 4. is not allowed. incandescent element 3 is adapted to be able to heat up to the combustion temperature of the gas, therefore when the solenoid valve 5 is open the incandescent element 3 ignites the burner 4. In the example of figure 18 of this first embodiment, the control unit 6 implements an implementation method comprising a cooking stage in which the control unit 6 activates or keeps active only between the incandescent element 3 to heat and / or keep the enclosure 2 close to a certain setpoint temperature Te.
The method of implementation of the invention comprises in a first embodiment at least two modes of operation in which the first mode is carried out in a temperature range where the selected setpoint temperature Te is greater than or equal to a threshold temperature Tu and the The second mode is carried out in a range where the selected setpoint temperature Te is lower than the threshold temperature Tu. The cooking stage of the implementation method is carried out in said second mode of operation.
The setpoint temperature Te is the temperature that the user of the household appliance 1 selects, through a user interface 9 that interacts with the control unit 6, to define the cooking mode, and the threshold temperature Tu is that temperature in that the burner, due to having excessive power, is not able to keep the temperature of the stable and homogeneous enclosure 2 within a range or temperature range that can range between + 2.5 ° C and -2.5 ° C over the setpoint temperature Te. In a non-limiting example of the invention the threshold temperature Tu corresponds approximately to 65 ° C, but this temperature may vary depending on the power of the burner 4 of the household appliance 1.
Thus, with the method of implementation of the first embodiment of the invention it is possible to keep the temperature of the enclosure 2 close to the setpoint temperature Te more stable and homogeneous when the setpoint temperature Te is lower than the threshold temperature Tu, it is within a range of temperatures tlT which can range, at most, between + 2.5 ° C and -2.5 ° C with respect to the setpoint temperature Te_ In a non-limiting example of the invention said temperature range. .T ranges between + O, 5 ° C and -O, 5 ° C. The power supplied by the burner 4, which can be, for example, the

order of 7KW, is much greater than the power supplied by the glow plug 3, which can be for example of the order of 160 W. Therefore, using the burner 4 as the main heating element it is not able to maintain the temperature of the enclosure 2 within the desired temperature range .ó.T due to the inertia of the burner 4 itself.
The second mode of operation of the method according to the first embodiment of the invention can be advantageous for cooking or fermentation of various products within the enclosure 2 such as bread, pizza or even yogurts. This last operation, carried out for example between 20 ° C and 60 ° C, is delicate and special control is required on the temperature of the enclosure 2, that is to say the temperature of the enclosure 2 must be stable and homogeneous to obtain a product Quality and no bad smells.
In said second mode of operation the only heating element is the incandescent element 3, that is to say the control unit 6 activates or keeps active only the incandescent element 3 to heat and / or keep the enclosure 2 close to the setpoint temperature Te , passing the gas burner 4 to an inactive state where the solenoid valve 5 is kept closed to prevent the passage of gas. The glow plug 3 has sufficient power to maintain the temperature of the enclosure under said conditions.
Optionally, in a variant of this embodiment, the second mode of operation may comprise a heating stage Ee wherein the burner 4 and the glow plug 3 are activated by the control unit 6 to heat the enclosure 2 until the temperature of setpoint Te in a first phase, as shown in figure 2, and a maintenance stage Em where the glow plug 3 is the only heating element to maintain the temperature of the enclosure 2 close to the setpoint temperature Te in a second phase, passing the gas burner 4 to the inactive state. That is, in this maintenance stage Em the control unit 6 keeps only the glow plug 3 activated to maintain the temperature of the enclosure 2 within the temperature range .ó.T. This variant is especially advantageous because the power of the burner 4 is used to quickly heat the enclosure 2 (to the desired temperature) and then said temperature is maintained only with the glow plug 3, which contributes to improving energy efficiency and reducing the energy cost of the home appliance 1 while ensuring stability and homogeneity of the temperature of the enclosure 2. If it starts from the situation that the home appliance 1 is already hot, the heating stage Ee could be dispensed with.
Figure 2 shows a graph of an example of the temperature behavior of the enclosure 2 of the household appliance 1 that is operating according to the variant of said second mode of operation, that is, according to the second mode of operation comprising the heating stage Ee And the maintenance stage
10 Em. This graph reflects the temperature "T" on the vertical axis and the time "t" on the horizontal axis.
In any of the embodiments of the invention, when only the glow plug 3 is activated, it corresponds to an electric heating element 15 that heats and / or keeps the enclosure 2 hot by convection.
In the first mode of operation of the method according to the first embodiment of the invention, the burner 4, being the main heating element, is capable of maintaining the temperature of the enclosure 2 within the desired temperature range LlT when the
20 setpoint temperature Te is greater than or equal to the threshold temperature Tu. In this first mode of operation the operating temperature range could be set, for example, between 65 ° C and 250 ° C. Within this operating temperature range, the inertia of the burner 4 does not prevent the setpoint temperature Tc from being reached and maintained within said temperature range Ll1.
25 As in the variant of the second mode of operation, this first mode of operation also comprises a heating stage in which the burner 4 and the glow plug 3 are activated to heat the chamber 2 until the set temperature Te is reached ( incandescent element 3 contributes in a minor
30), and a maintenance stage where both the burner 4 and the glow plug 3 are kept active to keep the temperature of the enclosure 2 close to the setpoint temperature Tc (the glow plug 3 contributes to a lesser extent) .

To control the temperature of the enclosure 2 according to any of the embodiments of the invention, the home appliance 1 comprises a temperature sensor 8, preferably arranged in the upper part of the enclosure 2, associated with the control unit 6 so that said control unit 6 correctly manage both the burner 4 and the glow plug 3.
The glow plug 3 is constantly connected to a power supply 7, as shown in Figure 3, during operation of the home appliance and is suitable for lighting the burner 4 when the solenoid valve 5 is open. Optionally, the glow plug 3 can also be fed directly to a power outlet or indirectly through the control unit 6. Therefore, a situation of unwanted on or off of the burner 4 can only occur when the element of incandescence 3 work defectively.
In this sense, the control unit 6 reads and registers the current "1" that passes through the glow plug 3 and comprises a monitoring unit that acts on the solenoid valve 5 for any anomaly detected in the glow plug 3, that is to say , acts on the solenoid valve 5 as a function of said current '' 1 "read.
Thus, in the first mode of operation of the household appliance 1 according to any of the described embodiments, the control unit 6, through said monitoring unit, keeps the solenoid valve 5 open if the current "1" read is stable and is greater than a preset minimum current Imin, and closed otherwise.
What is described in this last paragraph also applies to the heating stage Ec of the second mode of operation of the household appliance 1 according to any of the described embodiments. That is, whenever the normal operation of the household appliance 1, the solenoid valve 5 or the burner 4 is enabled to be used, the control unit 6 will monitor the correct operation of the household appliance 1 by acting on any anomaly through the monitoring unit. detected in the glow plug 3. Thus, if any anomaly is detected, the control unit 6 will close the solenoid valve 5 to avoid leaks of unburned gas and otherwise the control unit 6 will keep the solenoid valve 5 open.
The current 'T is considered stable when the variation between two consecutive values is less than 5%. The minimum current Imin is defined as the minimum current required to pass through the glow plug 3 so that it is capable of igniting the
5 gas In the examples in graphs 4 and 5 the stable zone corresponds to the zone of thestraight graph and close to the Imin line.
The gas burner 4 and the glow plug 3 of the home appliance 1 according to any of the described embodiments are arranged in the lower part of the enclosure 2. 10 In a non-limiting example, the glow plug 3 is arranged at one end of the burner 4, preferably near the first flame of the burner flame path 4. Optionally, the home appliance 1 in which the method of the invention is implemented according to any of the described embodiments, may comprise a second burner 4 ', shown in the Figure 1, at the top of enclosure 2 by way
15 grill Instead of said second burner 4 ', an electric resistor could be arranged as a grill element so as to heat the enclosure 2 by radiation.
The glow plug 3 of the home appliance 1 in which the method of the invention is implemented according to any of the described embodiments may comprise an NTC or PTC type behavior. In the NTC behavior the resistance of the glow element 3 decreases as its temperature increases, thus increasing the current '' 1 "that passes through said glow element 3. In the PTC behavior, on the contrary, the resistance of the element of incandescence 3 increases as its temperature increases, thus decreasing the current '' 1 "that passes
25 through the incandescent element 3.
