Abstract
An assembly for locking an oven door mounted on a body of a range and movable between open and closed positions, is provided that comprises a mount bracket adapted to be secured to the range body, with the mount bracket having a base and a cradle protruding below the base and disposed above an oven top wall. A latch member is coupled to the mount bracket for movement relative to the bracket. A locking device is disposed at least partially within the cradle and includes a thermally responsive element and a locking member coupled to the thermally responsive element. A heat transfer member has a first end adapted to be secured to the oven top wall and a second end secured to the cradle, wherein the locking member prevents the latch member from moving from a position where the door is latched and forced against the range body by the latch member toward a position wherein the door can be opened, when the thermally responsive member is actuated.
