The present invention relates to an apparatus for controlling rotation and stopping of a
microwave oven grill, wherein both ends of the grill are respectively provided with a first rotation shaft and a second rotation shaft, the first rotation shaft is placed on a bracket on the right side wall of a
microwave oven cavity, and forms rotation matching with the bracket, the left side wall of the
microwave oven cavity is fixed with a motor, an output shaft of the motor is connected with the second rotation shaft, the motor is a
synchronous motor and is provided with a
hall element, the second rotation shaft is provided with a magnetic element matched with the
hall element, the
hall element and an input end of a controller are connected, and the
synchronous motor and an output end of the controller are connected. The present invention further discloses a controlling method for controlling the apparatus for controlling rotation and stopping of the
microwave oven grill. According to the present invention, matching of the
hull element and the magnetic element is adopted, such that the initial position of the motor can be determined and fixed, accumulated errors during a
time control phase process can be eliminated; and the controller can be adopted to control flipping, pausing and positioning of the motor so as to control flipping, pausing and positioning of the grill; and the
synchronous motor is adopted so as to reduce cost.
