An electric cooking range includes an oven having an electric baking element and a back panel positioned behind the oven. A spacer bracket is positioned between the back panel and an electrical terminal block. A bottom panel is positioned below the bracket and spaced apart from a number of mounting feet so as to create a gap between the bottom panel and the mounting feet. The bracket has a passageway positioned over an opening formed in the bottom panel such that when the baking element is energized, air from the gap is drawn into the passageway and advanced upwardly along the passageway.

1. An electric cooking range comprising: a number of mounting feet configured to contact a floor surface,a lower frame coupled to the mounting feet, the lower frame having a bottom panel spaced apart from the mounting feet so as to create a gap between the bottom panel and the mounting feet,a first oven positioned above the lower frame,a second oven positioned below the first oven and above the lower frame,a back panel extending upwardly from the lower frame and positioned behind the first oven and the second oven,an electrical terminal block positioned behind the back panel, anda spacer bracket positioned between the terminal block and the back panel,wherein the spacer bracket has a passageway defined therein, the passageway being positioned over an opening formed in the bottom panel such that when the second oven is operated, air is drawn from the gap into the passageway and advanced upwardly along the passageway. 2. The cooking range of claim 1, wherein the terminal block is secured to the bracket near an upper end of the passageway. 3. The cooking range of claim 1, wherein: the bracket includes a body having a first surface and a second surface positioned opposite the first surface,the first surface of the body has the terminal block secured thereto, andthe second surface of the body faces the second oven. 4. The cooking range of claim 3, wherein a plurality of holes extend from the passageway to the first surface of the body such that air advancing upwardly along the passageway passes through the holes and flows over the terminal block. 5. The cooking range of claim 3, further comprising a bracket cover plate secured to the body of the bracket, the bracket cover plate enclosing the terminal block. 6. The cooking range of claim 1, wherein: the first oven has a first cooking chamber and a first electric baking element positioned below the first cooking chamber,the second oven has a second cooking chamber and a second electric baking element positioned below the second cooking chamber, andthe bracket is positioned behind the second electric baking element. 7. The cooking range of claim 1, wherein: the passageway is defined by a pair of side walls, andthe bracket includes a flange extending over an upper end of the passageway such that air advancing through the passageway is directed out openings formed between the pair of sidewalls and the flange. 8. The cooking range of claim 1, wherein the terminal block is configured to receive a three-prong electrical cord. 9. An electric cooking range comprising: a number of mounting feet configured to contact a floor surface,a lower frame coupled to the mounting feet, the lower frame having a bottom panel spaced apart from the mounting feet so as to create a gap between the bottom panel and the mounting feet,an oven positioned above the lower frame, the oven having a cooking chamber defined therein and an electric baking element positioned below the cooking chamber,a back panel positioned behind the oven and extending upwardly from the lower frame,an electrical terminal block positioned behind the back panel, anda spacer bracket positioned between the terminal block and the oven, the bracket having a pair of sidewalls defining a channel therebetween,wherein the channel is positioned over an opening formed in the bottom panel such that when the baking element is energized, air is drawn from the gap through the opening and advanced upwardly along the channel to an upper end of the bracket. 10. The cooking range of claim 9, wherein the terminal block is secured to the bracket at the upper end. 11. The cooking range of claim 9, wherein the bracket includes a flange positioned at the upper end extending over the channel such that air advancing through the passageway is directed out openings formed between the sidewalls and the flange. 12. The cooking range of claim 9, further comprising a second oven, the second oven having a second cooking chamber defined therein and a second electric baking element positioned below the second cooking chamber. 13. The cooking range of claim 9, wherein the bracket is secured to the back panel. 14. The cooking range of claim 13, wherein each of the sidewalls has a number of mounting flanges configured to contact the back panel. 15. The cooking range of claim 9, further comprising a cooktop positioned above the first oven, the cooktop having a cooking surface. 16. The cooking range of claim 15, wherein the cooking surface is positioned above an electric heating element.
