Definitions

  • conventional microwave oven 400 has a cabinet 430.
  • Cabinet 430 includes a cooking cavity 410 and a control chamber 420 which are separated from each other by a partition 415.
  • U.S. patent No. 5,698,128 issued to Sakai discloses a microwave oven in which projections are formed in the cooking cavity.
  • a plurality of convex projections of different sizes are formed in the cooking cavity so as to uniformly distribute the microwaves radiated into the cooking cavity.
  • forming the projections in the cooking cavity is difficult and the microwaves are not properly distributed in the cooking cavity if the convex projections are insufficiently provided in the cooking cavity.
  • the second and third side walls are formed with two arcuate concave portions, respectively, which are spaced by a predetermined distance apart from each other.
  • Each concave portion has a diameter larger than a half wavelength of the microwave.
  • a distance between a center of the arcuate concave portion formed at the second side wall and the bottom wall is larger than a half wavelength of the microwave.
  • Each concave portion has a depth in a range of 3 to 24mm.
  • a distance L between a center C of each arcuate concave portion 182 formed at second side wall 117 and the bottom wall is larger than a half wavelength of the microwave. According to the preferred embodiment of the present invention, distance L is larger than 60mm. Also, a depth d of the arcuate concave portion is in a range of 3 to 24mm. Within this range, first and second arcuate concave portions can have different depths from each other.
  • FIGs. 7 and 8 are graphs showing the above results.
  • a temperature difference w 1 between upper and middle portions of the milk bottle was larger than a temperature difference w 2 between middle and lower portions of the milk bottle.
  • temperature difference w 1 between upper and middle portions of the milk bottle is similar to temperature difference w 2 between middle and lower portions of the milk bottle. Accordingly, it is understood that the microwave oven of the present invention can uniformly heat the foodstuffs vertically.
