A cooking appliance is provided that may include a main body formed with a cavity, and a door that opens and closes the cavity. The door may include a display module including a display disposed in front of the door, a cooling flow path unit disposed behind the display module and having formed therein a flow path through which air for cooling flows, and a shield that is disposed behind the cooling flow path unit and configured to shield electromagnetic waves generated from the main body. The cooling flow path unit may be disposed between the shielding unit and the display module. The door may include a first outlet disposed at an upper portion of the door and through which the air flowing inside of the display module is discharged to the outside, and a second outlet disposed at a lower portion of the door.

A viewing panel (30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80) for a domestic appliance includes a substrate (33, 43, 53, 63, 73, 83) and a conductive layer (35, 45, 55, 65, 75, 85) disposed on the substrate; the conductive layer having conductive lines (31, 41, 51, 61, 71, 81) forming a pattern. The substrate contains a polymeric material; the conductive lines have a height (H) of 0.5 micrometers to 10 micrometers determined by an Olympus MX61 microscope; and the pattern has an average pore area of 0.008 square millimeters to 0.06 square millimeters determined by an Olympus MX61 microscope. The viewing panel has: a total transmission of greater than 70% of light having a wavelength in the range of 360 nanometers to 750 nanometers; and an electromagnetic shielding efficiency of greater than 30 dB at 2.45 GHz.

An oven comprises: a muffle extending along a longitudinal axis and configured to define a cooking cavity; the muffle having an edge configured to define an opening for the access to the cooking cavity; the opening extending around the longitudinal axis; a front panel coupled to the muffle and configured to surround the opening of the muffle; at least one sealing element; the front panel and the muffle being shaped to define a groove, which surrounds the opening of the muffle and is configured to house the at least one sealing element; the groove being defined by a back wall, a first side wall proximal to the opening and a second side wall distal to the opening; the first side wall having an axial height lower than the axial height of the second side wall.

A cooking apparatus including a main body, a cooking chamber inside the main body, and a door in front of the main body and configured to be rotatable to open and close the cooking chamber. The door includes door frame, a rear frame coupled to a rear of the door frame and configured to prevent leakage of electromagnetic waves from inside the cooking chamber through the door, an exterior panel coupled to a front of the door frame, and a grounding member integrally formed with the exterior panel. The grounding member includes a first grounding part extending rearward, a second grounding part bent from the first grounding part at a bending position and in contact with the rear frame so that the exterior panel is grounded to the rear frame, and bending guide grooves between the first grounding part and the second grounding part at the bending position.

An oven door for a microwave oven or a cooking oven with microwave heating functions includes at least one door cover (12) and at least one glass panel (14). The door cover (12) and the inner glass panel (14) form an inner part of the oven door. The door cover (12) and the glass panel (14) are connected by a welded joint (16). Said welded joint (16) is formed in an overlap of the door cover (12) and the glass panel (14). The welded joint (16) forms an elongated path.

A microwave shielding plate and a cooking device are disclosed. The microwave shielding plate includes one or more conductive layers, a conductor is provided in each of the conductive layers, and two ends of the conductor are provided with wiring points, so that a shielding section covering the conductive layers is formed when the conductor is coupled into a conductive loop.
