AI Technical Summary
The waveguide horn antenna of a microwave oven is relatively large, which takes up space inside the microwave oven, resulting in a reduced usable volume ratio and making it difficult to solve the problem of uneven heating.
An excitation structure is adopted, in which part of the waveguide horn antenna is housed in the surface wave generating cavity. The microwave transmission channel is connected to the surface wave generating cavity through a communication port, and the surface wave generating component is used to generate uniform surface waves for heating.
While maintaining the same external shape of the microwave oven, the size of the cooking cavity has been increased, improving the usable volume ratio and enhancing the uniformity of heating.
