FIG. 9 is a diagram showing a state in which a burner cover is fastened to a barrier member according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, and FIG. 10 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which a burner assembly according is fastened to a rear wall of a frame according to an embodiment of the disclosure.

Referring to FIGS. 9 and 10, the burner cover 130 is fastened to the barrier member 240 by the fastening member S1 when the barrier member 240 is fastened to the rear wall 35 of the frame 21. The burner cover 130 is spaced apart from the barrier plate 241 when the burner cover 130 is fastened to the barrier member 240. Accordingly, an exhaust flow path P along which heated air flows is defined between the burner cover 130 and the barrier plate 241. That is, the barrier plate 241 forms the exhaust flow path P.

In the exhaust flow path P, the flow path of the inclination part 241b is larger than the flow path of the vertical part 241a. However, the width of the exhaust flow path P may be reduced from the inclination part 241b adjacent to the fan 210 (part adjacent to the shaft through-hole) to the vertical part 241a.

Air discharged from the burner cover 130 may flow along the exhaust flow path P by the fan 210 and air discharged from the fan 210 may flow along the inclination part 241b, thereby improving flowing performance.

Hereinafter, operation of the burner assembly will be described.

Referring to FIGS. 1 to 10, when the burner assembly 23 starts to operate, gas is sprayed from the nozzle holder 220 to the burner 110. Then, air located in the vicinity of the gas inlet of the burner 110 (e.g., air outside the frame) is supplied to the gas inlet of the burner 110 along with gas. The mixed gas is ignited by the ignition unit 230 when it is supplied to the burner 110.

The fan motor 212 may be powered on to rotate the fan 210. When the fan 210 rotates, air within the cooking chamber 22 is introduced into the combustion chamber C through the air suction hole 192 of the assembly cover 190. The air introduced into the combustion chamber C then passes through the inner circumferential surface of the burner 110.

The air introduced into the combustion chamber C is heated by the flame generated by the burner 110 and is discharged from the combustion chamber C. The air discharged from the combustion chamber C flows along the exhaust flow path P between the burner cover 130 and the barrier plate 241. The air is then discharged to the cooking chamber 22 through the air discharge hole 194 of the assembly cover 190.

According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the burner cover 130 forms an independent combustion chamber C, and the combustion chamber C and the exhaust flow path P are partitioned by the burner cover 130. Thus, air flowing along the exhaust flow path P1 may be prevented from being reintroduced into the combustion chamber C.

Additionally, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as the barrier member 240 forms the exhaust flow path P, a contact area between the heated air and the rear wall 35 of the frame 21 can be reduced so as to prevent the enamel coating layer coated on the rear wall 35 of the frame 21 from being damaged.

Although embodiments have been described with reference to a number of illustrative embodiments thereof, it should be understood that numerous other modifications and embodiments can be devised by those skilled in the art that will fall within the spirit and scope of the principles of this disclosure. More particularly, various variations and modifications are possible in the component parts and/or arrangements of the subject combination arrangement within the scope of the disclosure, the drawings and the appended claims.
