Microwave heating device

摘要

In a microwave heating device of the present invention, a heating-chamber input portion is adapted to direct, to a heating chamber, microwaves having propagated through a waveguide tube and having passed through the positions where microwave radiating portions are formed, thereby realizing a state where progressive waves are dominant among the microwaves propagating through the waveguide tube, so that the microwave radiating portions are caused to radiate, to the inside of the heating chamber, microwaves based on the progressive waves propagating through the waveguide tube. This enables uniformly heating an object to be heated, without using a rotational mechanism.

主权项

1. A microwave heating device comprising:
a heating chamber adapted to house an object to be heated; a microwave supply portion for supplying microwaves to the heating chamber; a waveguide tube for propagating microwaves supplied from the microwave supply portion, to the heating chamber; a plurality of microwave radiating portions which are formed on the waveguide tube and are for radiating microwaves propagating through the waveguide tube, to inside of the heating chamber; and a heating-chamber input portion which is adapted to direct, to the inside of the heating chamber, microwaves having propagated through the waveguide tube and having passed through positions where the microwave radiating portions are formed, to realize a state where a progressive wave is dominant, among the microwaves propagating through the waveguide tube; wherein the microwave radiating portions are adapted to radiate, to the inside of the heating chamber, microwaves based on the progressive wave propagating through the waveguide tube.
