The door sealing frame 42 also has a left flange 421 and a right flange 422, which are fixedly connected to the corresponding left bracket 2 and right bracket 3 respectively via a snap-fit ​​structure. Figure 4 , 8As shown, the snap-fit ​​structure includes at least one positioning block 45 and at least one fixing buckle 46 disposed on the inner side of the left flange 421 / right flange 422, and at least one positioning groove 27 and at least one fixing block 28 disposed on the outer side wall of the left bracket 2 / right bracket 3. The positioning block 45 cooperates with the positioning groove 27 to realize the vertical and horizontal positioning of the inner door panel 4, and the fixing buckle 46 and fixing block 28 engage to fix the inner door panel 4 to the left bracket 2 and the right bracket 3.

[0053] In this embodiment, the outer door panel 1 and the partition 5 are both glass panels, while the left bracket 2, right bracket 3, door sealing frame 42 and cover plate 6 are all made of plastic.

[0054] In another embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the door frame 42 is provided with a bottom flange 423, and the inner side of the bottom flange 423 is provided with a snap-fit ​​protrusion 4231; the bottom of the outer door panel 1 is provided with a snap-fit ​​strip 11, and the snap-fit ​​protrusion 4231 snaps onto the snap-fit ​​strip 11.

[0055] In another embodiment, the door device is mounted on the housing 300 via a hinge to achieve a flip-open door. Therefore, the lower ends of the left bracket 2 and the right bracket 3 are also provided with hinge mounting grooves, and the corresponding positions of the bottom flange 423 are provided with hinge clearance holes 44. The hinge passes through the hinge clearance holes 44 and is fixed in the hinge mounting groove.

[0056] In another embodiment, the door device is movably mounted on the outer shell 300 via a side wall slide rail structure or a bottom slide rail mechanism to achieve a pull-out door. At the same time, the door device also includes a drawer mounted on the inner door panel 4, which can enter the inner cavity of the inner liner 300 for food cooking.

[0057] Example 2:

[0058] This embodiment is basically the same as Embodiment 1, except that:

[0059] like Figure 3 As shown, at least one upper vent 63 communicating with the inner cavity of the door frame is provided on the side of the cover plate 6 near the inner door panel 4, and a lower vent 43 communicating with the inner cavity of the door frame is provided at the lower end of the inner door panel 4. The lower vent 43 is located on the bottom flange 423.

A vent 301 connecting to the heat dissipation channel is provided on the upper part of the front panel of the outer shell 300. When the door device 100 is closed, the upper vent 63 is directly opposite the vent 301 and connects to the heat dissipation channel through the vent 301. When the cooling fan is working, outside air can enter and exit the heat dissipation channel through the lower vent 43, the inner cavity of the door frame, the upper vent 63, and the vent 301, thereby simultaneously cooling the door device 100, achieving rapid cooling, and preventing burns.

[0061] Based on this, due to air exchange, the partition 5 is more prone to getting dirty. At this time, the detachable structure of the cover 6 can quickly disassemble and clean the partition 5, improving cleaning efficiency.

[0062] Example 3:

[0063] The quick-release door device in this embodiment is mainly installed on kitchen appliances such as microwave ovens, microwave-grill combos, and microwave-steam-grill combos.

[0064] like Figure 3 As shown, its structure is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1. The difference is that, based on Embodiment 1, a metal shielding plate 7 for shielding microwaves is also provided in the inner cavity of the door frame. The metal shielding plate 7 includes a door panel body 71 with micropores and an outer frame 72 welded around the door panel body 71. An annular choke groove 721 is formed in the outer frame 72. The metal shielding plate 7 is fixed between the left support 2 and the right support 3 through the inner door panel 4.

[0065] An installation gap is provided between the front side of the outer shell 300 and the edge of the inner liner 200. A sealing ring 400 is provided in the installation gap. When the door device 100 is closed, the door device 100 abuts against the sealing ring 400.
