A food probe has multiple food temperature sensors. At least one of the food temperature sensors is configured to sense a surface temperature of a food item. A controller is communicatively coupled to the steam generator system, the air temperature sensor, and the food probe. The controller is configured to determine a wet bulb temperature utilizing the surface temperature of the food. The controller is configured to adjust relative humidity within the cooking cavity in response to at least one of the wet bulb temperature and the dry bulb temperature.

The present disclosure relates to pane-like articles, such as glass or glass ceramic substrates, suited for microwave-shielding applications, such as microwave oven doors or covers for electronic components. The present disclosure further relates to a household appliance comprising a pane-like article.

A method by an electromagnetic device includes determining a pattern of electromagnetic energy absorbed by a load disposed inside a cavity into which electromagnetic radiation is directed and generating one or more maps of the pattern of electromagnetic energy absorbed by the load. The one or more maps comprises an indication of a distribution of heating within the load. The method further includes determining, based on the one or more maps, a plurality of sequences of operating parameter combinations configured so as to heat the load via absorption of the electromagnetic radiation in accordance with a target temperature profile with respect to the load. The method thus includes emitting electromagnetic radiation into the cavity based on the plurality of sequences of operating parameter combinations to achieve the target temperature profile with respect to the load.

The Hideaway is the only product of its kind that has the capability of freeing up countertops by raising or lowering a microwave effortlessly, within minutes into a kitchen island. Hideaway is uniquely designed with a seamless countertop piece that is attached to the microwave top to ensure discretion and a seamless display while the microwave is stored within the island.

A cooking appliance includes a cooking cavity, a microwave module, and a turntable rotatably mounted in the cooking cavity. An upper pan is mounted above the turntable. The cooking appliance also includes a motor operatively coupled to the turntable to rotate the turntable and the upper pan within the cooking cavity.

The present invention relates to a support system (10) for an object, in particular for food (34) being treated. The support system (10) comprises an upper part (12) and a lower part (14). The upper part (12) includes a support plate (16) for bearing the object (34). The support system (10) comprises at least three guiding elements (20) and a guiding rail (22). The guiding elements (20) belong to one of the upper part (12) or the lower part (14), while the guiding rail (22) belongs to the other one of the upper part (12) or the lower part (14). The guiding rail (22) is formed as a circular ring and includes at least three identical segments. Each segment of the guiding rail (22) includes at least three horizontal sections arranged at different levels. The upper part (12) is rotatable with respect to the lower part (14) around a common vertical central axis. The guiding elements (20) are sliding along the guiding rail (22) during the rotation of the upper part (12) with respect to the lower part (14). The level of the support plate (16) is adjustable by the rotation of the upper part (12) with respect to the lower part (14).

To eliminate various problems caused by a no-load operation. A heating cooking apparatus of the present invention, which is a heating cooking apparatus (1) that performs heating cooking of a food product (40) in accordance with an information code read from the food product (40), includes a light receiving element (32) provided at a position where the light receiving element cannot receive light when the food product (40) is present in the heating chamber (13) but can receive the light when no food product (40) is present and perform no heating cooking when the light receiving element (32) can receive the light.

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for selective heating. In some implementations, a cooking device for selective heating includes a cavity, one or more waveguides coupled to the cavity, a power generation means coupled to the one or more waveguides and configured to generate an incident power, one or more apertures between the cavity and the one or more waveguides, and a controller configured to control one or more of the power generation means, the apertures, or a cavity geometry. A cooking device cavity geometry can be dynamically configurable. The cooking device can include one or more sensors coupled to the cavity.

The modular microwave ablation system of the present disclosure includes a microwave instrument, a microwave generator, and one or more auxiliary modules that include circuitry for performing functions related to the operation of the microwave generator.
