[0026] The cooking equipment provided in this application may include microwave ovens, microwave ovens and other cooking equipment with microwave cooking functions. This application will be described using a microwave oven as an example.

[0027] This application proposes a cooking device, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of an embodiment of the cooking device of the present application; Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a portion of the structure of an embodiment; Figure 3 This is a structural diagram of an embodiment of a feed port of a cooking device of the present application; Figure 4This is a schematic structural diagram of another embodiment of a feed port for a cooking device according to the present application. The cooking device of this embodiment includes a main body 11 and a microwave assembly 12. The main body 11 defines a cooking cavity 111. The microwave assembly 12 forms a waveguide cavity 121. The microwave assembly 12 generates microwaves and feeds the microwaves into the cooking cavity 111 via a plurality of feed ports 20 connected to the waveguide cavity 121. The circumference L of the feed ports 20 is a first predetermined ratio of the microwave wavelength λ.

[0028] The microwave component 12 forming the waveguide cavity 121 means that the microwave component 12 independently forms the waveguide cavity 121 or cooperates with the main body 11 to form the waveguide cavity 121 .

[0029] Among them, the main body 11 includes a box body (not marked in the figure) and a door body (not marked in the figure). The box body forms a accommodating cavity with an opening for accommodating food; the door body cover is arranged on the opening to seal the accommodating cavity to form a cooking cavity 111, which can reduce microwave leakage and heat loss and improve cooking effect.

[0030] Among them, the microwave component 12 is arranged on the outer wall of the main body 11, that is, it is arranged outside the cooking cavity 111, so as to reduce the impact of the internal environment of the cooking cavity 111 on the microwave component 12, improve its reliability, and improve the space utilization of the cooking cavity 111; and connecting the microwave component 12 to the main body 11 can improve its stability.

[0031] The microwave assembly 12 can generate microwaves and radiate the microwaves into the cooking cavity 111 through the waveguide cavity 121 and the feeding port 20 to heat and cook the food in the cooking cavity 111 .

[0032] The uniformity of food heating within the cooking cavity 111 is related to the uniformity of the microwave field within the cooking cavity 111. If the microwave field within the cooking cavity 111 is poorly uniform, the microwave distribution within the cooking cavity 111 will be uneven, resulting in uneven heating of different parts of the food, affecting the cooking effect. To address this issue, the waveguide cavity 121 of this embodiment is connected to multiple feed ports 20 for uniformly distributing the microwave field within the cooking cavity 111.

[0033] The feed ports 20 are used to radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity 111 . The microwaves radiated into the cooking cavity 111 by the respective feed ports 20 are coupled with each other, so that the microwave field in the cooking cavity 111 tends to be balanced.

[0034] The wavelength λ of the microwave is the wavelength of the microwave in free space; the perimeter L of the feed port 20 refers to the length around the edge of the slot of the feed port 20 .

[0035] In this embodiment, multiple feed ports 20 are used to feed microwaves in the waveguide cavity 121 into the cooking cavity 111. This not only improves the uniformity of microwave radiation and microwave heating, but also eliminates the need for a mechanical structure to improve the uniformity of microwave heating. Therefore, the space utilization of the cooking cavity 111 can be improved, and its reliability and cost can be improved. Furthermore, the circumference L of the feed port 20 in this embodiment is a first preset ratio of the wavelength λ of the microwave, that is, the circumference L of the feed port is related to the microwave wavelength λ, which can improve the radiation efficiency of the feed port 20 for microwaves and improve the microwave heating efficiency. Moreover, the multiple feed ports 20 can improve the uniformity of microwave radiation, thereby further improving the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0036] Optionally, the first preset ratio in this embodiment is 1.5-0.5, that is, the circumference L of the feed port 20 is 1.5-0.5 times the wavelength λ of the microwave.

[0037] The first preset ratio may specifically be 1.5, 1.25, 1, 0.75, 0.5, etc.

[0038] In this embodiment, the circumference L of the feed port 20 is set to 1.5-0.5 times the microwave wavelength λ, which not only improves the radiation efficiency and effect of the feed port 20 on microwaves, but also enables a cooking device of the same volume to be provided with a larger number of feed ports 20, thereby further improving the uniformity and microwave intensity of the microwave field in the cooking cavity 111, and further improving the uniformity and heating effect of microwave heating, thereby saving energy consumption.

[0039] Optionally, the first preset ratio in this embodiment is 1, that is, the circumference L of the feed port 20 is equal to the microwave wavelength λ.

[0040] The larger the perimeter L of the feed port 20 is, the larger the area it occupies is, and the smaller the number of feed ports 20 set in the same area is. In this embodiment, the perimeter L of the feed port 20 is set to the microwave wavelength λ, which can achieve the best compromise between the radiation efficiency and effect of the feed port 20 on microwaves and the number of feed ports 20, thereby better improving the microwave heating effect.

[0041] Optionally, the microwave assembly 12 and the feed port 20 are arranged on the same side, that is, the microwave assembly 12 and the feed port 20 are located on the same side of the cooking cavity 111. This structure can shorten the distance that microwaves are transmitted to the feed port 20, reduce the length of the waveguide cavity 121, reduce the volume of the cooking device, and reduce microwave losses.

[0042] Optionally, the wall of the cooking cavity 111 of this embodiment is provided with a plurality of feed ports 20 connected to the cooking cavity 111, and the microwave assembly 12 includes: a microwave generator 122, a waveguide tube 123, and a waveguide cover 124; wherein, the microwave generator 122 is arranged outside the main body 11 and is used to generate microwaves; the waveguide tube 123 is arranged outside the main body 11 and is connected to the microwave generator 122; the waveguide cover 124 is covered on the wall provided with the plurality of feed ports 20 to form a waveguide cavity 121, and the waveguide cavity 121 is respectively connected to the waveguide tube 123 and the feed ports 20.

[0043] The microwave generator 122 is the heart of the microwave oven, converting DC power into microwave energy. Microwave generator 122 may include a magnetron. Of course, in other embodiments, transistors or diodes may be used instead of the magnetron. The microwave energy generated by the magnetron is transmitted to the cooking cavity 111 via a waveguide 123. One end of the waveguide 123 is connected to the magnetron's antenna, and the other end communicates with the waveguide cavity 121.

[0044] The waveguide cover 124 is provided with a waveguide feed port communicating with the waveguide cavity 121 and the waveguide tube 123 .

[0045] When the cooking device performs microwave heating on food, the microwave generator 122 operates to generate microwaves. The microwaves generated by the microwave generator 122 are first transmitted to the waveguide cavity 121 through the waveguide tube 123, and then transmitted to the multiple feeding ports 20. Since the multiple feeding ports 20 are connected to the cooking cavity 111, the microwaves are radiated into the cooking cavity 111 through the multiple feeding ports 20 to perform microwave heating on the food.

[0046] In this embodiment, the wall of the cooking cavity 111 serves as a microwave feed port, and multiple feed ports 20 are provided. This reduces components, reduces the size of the cooking device, and saves costs. By providing multiple feed ports 20 on the wall of the cooking cavity 111, microwaves can be radiated into the cooking cavity 111 through the multiple feed ports 20. The microwaves radiated into the cooking cavity 111 can also be regulated by the multiple feed ports 20, so that the microwaves radiated into the cooking cavity 111 by each feed port 20 are mutually coupled, resulting in a more balanced microwave field within the cooking cavity 111. This allows a uniform microwave field to be formed within the cooking cavity 111 without the need for a mechanical rotation mechanism. This simplifies the product structure, reduces production costs, and reduces the size of the product, facilitating a miniaturized design. It also enhances the cooking performance of the cooking device, ensuring that ingredients are evenly heated by microwaves.

[0047] In other embodiments, the volume of the waveguide tube can be expanded to form a waveguide cavity. A plurality of feed ports are provided on a side of the waveguide tube close to the cooking cavity, and a plurality of feed ports are provided on a wall of the cooking cavity close to the waveguide tube, and the feed ports on the waveguide tube are connected to the corresponding feed ports on the wall to feed the microwaves in the waveguide cavity into the cooking cavity.

[0048] Optionally, the microwave assembly 12 may be disposed at the bottom of the main body 11 ; and the feed port 20 may be disposed on the bottom wall of the cooking cavity 111 .

[0049] Since the food in the cooking cavity 111 is usually distributed horizontally through the food utensils, the microwave component 12 is arranged at the bottom of the main body 11, which can shorten the transmission distance of microwaves to various areas of the food and improve the heating efficiency and effect; and the microwave component 12 is arranged on the same side as the feed port 20, that is, the microwave component 12 and the feed port 20 are located on the same side of the cooking cavity 111, which can shorten the distance of microwave transmission to the feed port 20, reduce the length of the waveguide cavity 121, reduce the volume of the cooking equipment, and reduce microwave loss.

[0050] Optionally, other walls of the cooking cavity 111 may be compatible with functions such as hot air and light baking.

[0051] In other embodiments, the feed port may be provided on the top wall of the cooking cavity, and the microwave assembly may be located on the top of the main body; or the microwave assembly may be provided on the side of the main body.

[0052] In another embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the microwave assembly 12 includes: a microwave generator 122, a waveguide tube 123, a waveguide cover 124, a partition 501, and a feed plate 500; wherein the microwave generator 122 is arranged outside the main body 11 and is used to generate microwaves; the waveguide tube 123 is arranged outside the main body 11 and is connected to the microwave generator 122; the waveguide cover 124 is covered on the side of the wall of the cooking cavity 111 facing away from the cooking cavity 111, and the wall forms a recessed cavity facing the waveguide cover 124; the partition 501 is covered at the opening of the recessed cavity to form the waveguide cavity 121; the feed plate 500 is arranged in the recessed cavity, and the feed plate 500 is provided with a plurality of feed ports 20, and the waveguide cavity 121 is respectively connected to the waveguide tube 123 and the feed ports 20.

[0053] The waveguide cover 124 is provided with a waveguide feed port communicating with the waveguide tube 123 ; the wall surface of the cooking cavity 111 is also provided with a through hole communicating with the waveguide feed port and the waveguide cavity 121 .

[0054] Optionally, the perimeter L of the feed port 20 is positively correlated with the distance between the feed port 20 and the waveguide feed port.

[0055] The positive correlation between the perimeter L of the feed port 20 and the distance between the feed port 20 and the waveguide feed port means that the perimeter L of the feed port 20 increases as the distance between the feed port 20 and the waveguide feed port increases, and decreases as the distance between the feed port 20 and the waveguide feed port decreases.

[0056] In this embodiment, the distance between the microwave feeding port of the waveguide cavity 121, that is, the waveguide feeding port, and the microwave feeding port of the cooking cavity, that is, the feeding port 20, is positively correlated with the circumference L of the feeding port 20. This can make the circumference of the feeding port 20 farther away from the waveguide feeding port larger, and can balance the microwaves fed into the cooking cavity from each feeding port 20, thereby improving the uniformity of the microwave field in the cooking cavity 111, and further improving the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0057] Optionally, the projections of the feed port 20 and the second feed port on the wall surface are positively correlated with the distance between the feed ports 20 .

[0058] Optionally, the distance D1 between the geometric centers of two adjacent feed ports 20 is a second preset ratio of the wavelength λ of the microwave; wherein the second preset ratio is 0.25-0.75.

[0059] The second preset ratio may specifically be 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, etc.

[0060] In this embodiment, the distance between the geometric centers of two adjacent feed ports 20 is a second preset ratio of the microwave wavelength λ, that is, the distance between the two adjacent feed ports 20 is related to the microwave wavelength, which can improve the radiation efficiency of the feed ports to microwaves and improve the microwave heating efficiency; in this embodiment, the distance between the geometric centers of two adjacent feed ports 20 is set to 0.25-0.75 times the microwave wavelength λ, which can make the microwaves more evenly radiated into the cooking cavity from multiple feed ports 20 without being concentrated on a single or a few feed ports 20, thereby improving the uniformity of the microwave field in the cooking cavity and the uniformity of microwave heating, and enabling a cooking device of the same volume to be provided with a larger number of feed ports 20, thereby further improving the microwave intensity of the microwave field in the cooking cavity 111, thereby further improving the heating effect and saving energy consumption.

[0061] Optionally, the second preset ratio in this embodiment is 0.5.

[0062] In this embodiment, the distance between the geometric centers of two adjacent feed ports 20 is set to half the microwave wavelength λ, which can achieve an optimal compromise between the uniformity of microwave radiation from multiple feed ports 20 and the number of feed ports 20, thereby better improving the microwave heating effect.

[0063] In other embodiments, a plurality of feed ports may be arranged in different radiation areas of the wall surface, and the distance between the geometric centers of two adjacent radiation areas is a second preset ratio of the wavelength λ of the microwave.

[0064] Optionally, the gap width of the feed port 20 of this embodiment is greater than or equal to 8 mm.

[0065] For example, the feed port 20 includes a strip-shaped slot, and the slot width of the strip-shaped slot is a dimension perpendicular to the length extension direction of the slot.

[0066] If the gap width of the feed port 20 is too small, it can easily cause sparks at the position where the feed port 20 is deformed during microwave transmission. To improve the sparking problem, this embodiment sets the gap width of the feed port 20 to be greater than or equal to 8mm. This can improve the sparking phenomenon caused by the deformation of the feed port 20 and enhance the safety and reliability of the product.

[0067] Among them, the gap width can be 8mm, 9mm, 10mm, etc.

[0068] In other embodiments, a flange may be provided at the feed port, extending in the direction toward the cooking cavity. The flange can enhance the strength of the feed port, prevent deformation of the feed port, and avoid sparks caused by deformation of the feed port, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the product.

[0069] Optionally, the multiple feeding ports 20 of this embodiment are arranged in an array on the same wall of the cooking cavity 111 to form multiple radiation points arranged in an array, which can improve the uniformity of the microwave feeding points and thus improve the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0070] For example, the wall surface of the cooking cavity 111 is rectangular, and the plurality of feeding ports 20 are arranged in a matrix.

[0071] Optionally, along a direction perpendicular to the extension direction of the waveguide feed port, the waveguide feed port is located between the center point of the wall surface and a side edge of the wall surface.

[0072] Because multiple feed ports 20 are evenly arranged in an array on the wall, and microwaves can be radiated relatively evenly into the cooking cavity 111 along the extension direction of the waveguide feed ports, this embodiment places the waveguide feed ports of the waveguide cavity 121 near the center point of the wall where the feed ports 20 are located, perpendicular to the extension direction of the waveguide feed ports. This shortens the distance difference between the waveguide feed ports and each feed port 20, and reduces the difference in the transmission of microwaves fed from the waveguide feed ports to the multiple feed ports 20. This improves the uniformity of microwaves fed from the multiple feed ports 20 and the uniformity of microwave heating. At the same time, the center point of the wall can be reserved for other microwave structures.

[0073] In this embodiment, the waveguide feed port is disposed close to the center point of the wall surface, and microwaves can be transmitted in two directions. A good match can be achieved by adjusting the coupling window of the waveguide cover 124, that is, the waveguide feed port.

[0074] Optionally, in this embodiment, the extension direction of the waveguide feed port and the center point of the waveguide feed port on the wall surface coincide with each other, which can further improve the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0075] Optionally, the vertical direction includes the length direction x of the wall surface. In this way, the extension length of the waveguide feed port can be reduced and the strength of the waveguide cover 124 can be improved.

[0076] Optionally, in this embodiment, along the width direction y of the wall, the waveguide feed ports are located at the center point of the wall surface and coincide with each other, which can further improve the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0077] In other embodiments, the extension direction of the waveguide feed port can be the length direction of the wall surface. Along the length direction of the wall surface, the waveguide feed port coincides with the center point of the wall surface, which can further improve the uniformity of microwave feeding by multiple feed ports and improve the uniformity of microwave heating; along the width direction of the wall surface, between the waveguide feed port and the center point of the wall surface or the center point and the side of the wall surface.

[0078] Optionally, the ratio of the distance D2 between the waveguide feed port and the center point of the wall to the distance D3 between the side edge of the wall and the center point of the wall in this embodiment is less than one-third. In this manner, not only can the uniformity of microwaves fed by the multiple feed ports 20 be improved, thereby improving the uniformity of microwave heating, but also the center point of the wall can be reserved for other microwave structures. Furthermore, because the microwave generator 122 and the waveguide tube 123 have a certain size, the installation and routing of the microwave generator 122 and the waveguide tube 123 can be facilitated.

[0079] Optionally, the feed port 20 of this embodiment includes at least a first feed portion 21 and a second feed portion 22 and a third feed portion 23 respectively connected to the two ends of the first feed portion 21, the first feed portion 21 and the second feed portion 22 and the third feed portion 23 are not on the same straight line, and the second feed portion 22 and the third feed portion 23 are located on the same side of the first feed portion 21.

[0080] The first feed portion 21 is the middle portion of the feed opening 20, and the second feed portion 22 and the third feed portion 23 are the two ends of the feed opening 20, which are connected by the first feed portion 21 to form the feed opening 20. The second feed portion 22, the first feed portion 21, and the third feed portion 23 extend in sequence along the length direction of the feed opening 20. The sum of the lengthwise dimensions of the second feed portion 22, the first feed portion 21, and the third feed portion 23 is the circumference L of the feed opening 20.

[0081] Optionally, the widths of the first feed portion 21 , the second feed portion 22 , and the third feed portion 23 may be the same.

[0082] In this embodiment, the two ends of the feed port 20, namely the second feed portion 22 and the third feed portion 23, are not on the same straight line as its middle portion, namely the first feed portion 21, and the second feed portion 22 and the third feed portion 23 are located on the same side of the first feed portion 21. This can improve the problem of the feed port 20 being too large in a certain direction, and can reduce the area of ​​a single feed port 20, making it easier to set up a larger number of feed ports 20 within the same area, thereby improving the uniformity of microwave heating and achieving the target circumference of the feed port 20.

[0083] Optionally, the multiple feed ports 20 of this embodiment include a first feed port A, which is located in the peripheral area of ​​the array along the length direction x of the wall on which the feed port 20 is provided; wherein the first feed portion 21 of the first feed port A extends along the width direction y of the wall, and the second feed portion 22 and the third feed portion 23 of the first feed port A extend along the length direction x.

[0084] The wall is usually arranged in a rectangular shape, and its length direction x refers to the long side direction of the rectangle. For example, the door and the cabinet of the cooking device are arranged along the width direction y, and the length direction x is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the door and the cabinet.

[0085] The first feed port A of this embodiment is U-shaped, with both ends extending away from the middle area of ​​the wall, which can feed microwaves into the cooking cavity 111 from both sides along the length direction x of the cooking cavity 111, thereby improving the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0086] Optionally, the multiple feed ports 20 of this embodiment further include a second feed port B, which is located in the middle area of ​​the array along the length direction x; wherein the second feed port B further includes a first extension portion 24 that is parallel to its second feed portion 22 and respectively connects to the second feed portion 22 of the second feed port B and the first feed portion 21 of the second feed port B, and the second feed port B further includes a second extension portion 25 that is parallel to its third feed portion 23 and respectively connects to the third feed portion 23 of the second feed port B and the first feed portion 21 of the second feed port B, and the first extension portion 24 and the second extension portion 25 are arranged on the same side.

[0087] The second feed port B of this embodiment is arranged in an I shape, and its two ends extend in opposite directions away from the middle area of ​​the wall, which can feed microwaves into the cooking cavity 111 from both sides of the cooking cavity 111 along the length direction x, thereby improving the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0088] Optionally, along the width direction y of the wall, the first feeding portion 21 of the second feeding port B located in the peripheral area of ​​the array is arranged parallel to the width direction y, and the first feeding portion 21 of the second feeding port B located in the middle area of ​​the array is arranged at an acute angle to the width direction y.

[0089] For example, Figure 2As shown, multiple feed ports 20 are arranged in a matrix. Along the length direction x of the wall, the feed ports 20 in the middle area of ​​the matrix are arranged in an I shape, and the feed ports 20 in the peripheral area of ​​the matrix are arranged in a U shape. The perimeter L of the feed ports 20 in the middle area of ​​the matrix is ​​smaller than the perimeter L of the feed ports 20 in the peripheral area of ​​the matrix; and along the width direction y of the wall, the perimeter L of the feed ports 20 in the middle area of ​​the matrix is ​​smaller than the perimeter L of the feed ports 20 in the peripheral area of ​​the matrix.

[0090] like Figure 2 As shown, the first feed portions 21 of the feed ports 20 in the matrix's peripheral region extend along the width direction y of the wall surface, while the first feed portions 21 of the feed ports 20 in the matrix's central region extend at an acute angle to the width direction y. This design method can reduce the y-direction length of a single feed port 20 while achieving the target perimeter of the feed ports 20, facilitating the installation of a greater number of feed ports 20 within the same area, thereby improving microwave heating uniformity.

[0091] For example, Figure 3 As shown, multiple feed ports 20 are arranged in a matrix. Along the length direction x of the wall, the feed ports 20 in the central region of the matrix are arranged in an I-shaped and circular arc shape, while the feed ports 20 in the peripheral region of the matrix are arranged in a U-shaped shape. The circumference L of the feed ports 20 in the central region of the matrix is ​​smaller than the circumference L of the feed ports 20 in the peripheral region of the matrix. Furthermore, along the width direction y of the wall, the circumference L of the feed ports 20 in the central region of the matrix is ​​smaller than the circumference L of the feed ports 20 in the peripheral region of the matrix. The first feed portions 21 of the feed ports 20 in the peripheral region of the matrix extend along the width direction y of the wall, while the feed ports 20 in the central region of the matrix are arranged in an arc shape.

[0092] Along the length direction x of the wall, the semi-I-shaped patterns in the peripheral area of ​​the matrix face in opposite directions. This design method can fully utilize the space at the left and right edges, making it easier to arrange more feed ports 20 within the same area, thereby improving microwave heating uniformity.

[0093] like Figure 3 As shown, multiple I-shaped feed ports 20 are positioned on either side of the multiple C-shaped, or arc-shaped, feed ports 20, with the multiple C-shaped feed ports 20 positioned adjacent to each other. The multiple I-shaped and C-shaped feed ports 20 are symmetrically positioned about the axis x, the longitudinal direction of the cooking cavity 111. This allows the waveguide 123 to cover the waveguide feed ports, preventing wave leakage. It also helps adjust the microwave standing wave ratio, allowing more microwaves to enter the cooking cavity 111.

[0094] Optionally, the feed port 20 of this embodiment can be arranged in at least one of a U-shape, an I-shape, and an arc shape. The area of ​​the feed ports in these shapes is smaller, and more feed ports 20 can be arranged in the same area, thereby improving the uniformity of microwave heating.

[0095] In other embodiments, the shape of the feed openings can also be other letters, words, or geometric figures. The shapes of the multiple feed openings can be the same or different, and the shapes of the multiple feed openings can be any one of letters, words, or geometric figures, or a combination of at least two of them. This facilitates the mutual coupling of microwaves radiated by the various feed openings within the cooking cavity, making the microwave field within the cooking cavity more balanced, thereby ensuring uniform microwave heating of the food and improving the cooking effect.

[0096] In other embodiments, the positions of the feed ports can be adjusted according to actual needs, and the microwaves radiated by the array feed ports can be made more uniform by designing the number, distribution, and size of the feed ports.

[0097] The above is only an implementation method of the present application and does not limit the patent scope of the present application. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the description and drawings of this application, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present application.
