(54) Improved gasket of elastomer material in the form of a closed or open frame for cooking oven doors


(57) A frame gasket is described for cooking oven doors, which comprises a tubular profile (1) with inner longitudinal cavity (2) and peripheral flange (3), having only one butt joint, if any, even if the frame is of the four-side closed type. Coupling metal inserts are provi­ded for engagement into associate holes (12, 13) of the abutment surface (14) about an over opening. In a first embodiment said inserts are either L-shaped (5, 6), pos­sibly of asymmetrical legs, with coupling tabs (9) for the corner bent portions of the frame, or formed as elon­gated metal plates (8) with spring-like prongs (9ʹ) for engagement into holes (13) of the rectilinear lengths. These prongs (9ʹ) and the coupling tabs protrude from the profile through slots (11) formed by removal of mate­rial. In a second embodiment the metal inserts (20) are all identical, formed of a longitudinal plate length (21) to be fitted into the cavity (2) and fonded at an end thereof with a hooked tab (22) projecting outwardly through a hole (27) of the profile, there being provided two of said insert members (20) at each corner region (25, 25ʹ) and one of them at each free end of the frame when it is open with three sides.
