A split-type microwave oven comprises a first housing assembly, a second housing assembly, a microwave source module, a microwave shielding and choking member, and a detection device that is used for detecting whether a wave leakage occurs in a microwave heating resonant cavity. The second housing assembly is detachably disposed on the first housing assembly. The first housing assembly is provided with a first microwave shielding member, the second housing assembly is provided with a second microwave shielding member, and the first microwave shielding member is suitable for defining, together with the second microwave shielding member, the microwave heating resonant cavity. The microwave source module is installed on one of the first housing assembly and the second housing assembly. The microwave shielding and choking member is located outside the microwave heating resonant cavity. The split-type microwave oven occupies a small space and is convenient to use.

Provided are cleaning devices adapted for a microwave oven. A head cap of the cleaning device includes multiple through holes, and thus steam generated by heating a cleaning liquid can flow out of the through holes in a faster and more concentrated mode. Using the cleaning device of this disclosure, the cleaning operation for the microwave oven is more convenient, and safety hazard such as explosion or splashing is also prevented as well.

An oven door for a microwave oven or an appliance with microwave heating function. The door includes a door frame enclosing the door and glass panels inside and/or in front of the frame. The frame includes a wave choke arranged between a support element and a cover element. The cover element is fixed or fixable at the support element and forms an outer portion of an inner side of the oven door. The cover element is made of a high temperature resistant non-metallic material and covers an outer portion of an inner side of an inner glass panel. The inner glass panel is clamped between the cover element and the support element and/or the wave choke. A sealing element made of a high temperature resistant textile material is arranged between the cover element and the inner glass panel. A corresponding chassis is provided for the oven or the appliance.

A modular cooking apparatus is disclosed. The modular cooking apparatus includes a housing having a first interchangeable cooking module, a second interchangeable cooking module, and a single power connection for receiving electrical power from a wall outlet. The first interchangeable cooking module contains a first oven, and the second interchangeable cooking module contains a second oven. The second oven is a different oven type from the first oven. The modular cooking apparatus also includes a controller within the housing for controlling the first and second ovens. The controller includes a memory for storing a list of food items to be cooked within the modular cooking apparatus and a corresponding oven type for each of the food items. The modular cooking apparatus further includes a control panel on the housing for displaying only the food items for which the first oven or the second oven is a corresponding oven type.

The present invention relates to an injection moulding system for forming an oven liner, particularly of the type that is used with microwave ovens. Oven liners are of particular benefit when used inside microwave ovens. They improve hygiene as where food spills or spurts onto the oven liner rather than an interior of the microwave oven. An injection moulding system for forming an oven liner includes: a first mould tool which defines a cavity of length (L), width (W) and height (H), the first mould tool has a substantially rectangular end face with dimensions corresponding to the width (W) and height (H) of the cavity and has a hot feed located at a centroid of its end face; and a wedge collapsing tool is received in the cavity so as to contact and engage with an external periphery of the first mould tool at selected locations in order to define a volume into which hot material feed is injected, wherein the wedge collapsing tool comprises a first part and a second part in slidable contact one with another, and the width (W2) of the second part exceeds the width (W1) of the first part of the wedge collapsing tool by at least 0.1 mm so that a split line is formed on at least one side of an interior surface of the oven liner.

An apparatus for heating a heating target object includes: a heating member for supporting the heating target object; an electromagnetic wave irradiation part for irradiating an electromagnetic wave to an irradiation surface of the heating member, which is opposite to a surface supporting the heating target object; and a controller. The electromagnetic wave irradiation part includes: an electromagnetic wave output part for outputting the electromagnetic wave; and an antenna unit. The antenna unit includes antenna modules each having an antenna for radiating radiate the electromagnetic wave and a phase shifter for adjusting phase of the electromagnetic wave radiated from the antenna. The controller controls the phase shifters of the antenna modules so that phases of electromagnetic waves radiated from a plurality of the antenna are condensed on an arbitrary portion of the heating member by interference, and a condensed portion of the electromagnetic waves is scanned on the irradiation surface.

A steam cleaning system for cleaning a microwave oven without chemical cleaners includes an oven. A bowl is provided that contains a liquid and the bowl is selectively positioned within the oven. The oven boils the liquid thereby producing steam. The steam penetrates debris stuck to the oven thereby facilitating the debris to be cleaned from the oven. A cloth is provided and the cloth is selectively positioned in the bowl. The cloth is made of a liquid permeable material such that the cloth absorbs the liquid. Moreover, the steam is released from the cloth when the oven is turned on to heat the liquid.

A split-type microwave oven comprises a first housing assembly, a second housing assembly, a microwave source module, a microwave shielding and choking member, and a detection device that is used for detecting whether a wave leakage occurs in a microwave heating resonant cavity. The second housing assembly is detachably disposed on the first housing assembly. The first housing assembly is provided with a first microwave shielding member, the second housing assembly is provided with a second microwave shielding member, and the first microwave shielding member is suitable for defining, together with the second microwave shielding member, the microwave heating resonant cavity. The microwave source module is installed on one of the first housing assembly and the second housing assembly. The microwave shielding and choking member is located outside the microwave heating resonant cavity. The split-type microwave oven occupies a small space and is convenient to use.

A gasket (20) adapted for a microwave oven or a cooking oven with microwave heating function, that includes at least one elastic material and includes a front portion (30) and a rear portion (32), wherein the front portion (30) of the gasket (20) is an electrically non-conductive material, whereas the rear portion (32) of the gasket (20) is an electrically conductive material.

A microwave oven or multifunctional oven with microwave heating function. The oven includes a cavity with an open front side and a front frame enclosing at least partially a front portion of the cavity. The cavity and the front frame include metal sheet. The front frame is connected to the cavity by fixing elements. A gap is formed between the cavity and the front frame. The gap encloses at least partially the front portion of the cavity and the front frame encloses the gap. The oven includes a door covering the open front side and the gap in a closed state of the door. The gap is at least partially filled by a gasket at least part of which includes one or more materials having low heat conductivity, so that the front frame is thermally decoupled from the cavity by the part of the gasket or the gap.
