MICROWAVE ANTENNA CONFIGURATION, ACCESSARY HAVING THIS TYPE OF MICROWAVE ANTENNA CONFIGURATION, AND COOKING APPLIANCE HAVING ONE OR MORE ACCESSARIES

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an antenna configuration for a cooking appliance having a cooking chamber capable of inputting uniform energy usable in various treatment positions toward a cooking product. SOLUTION: At least two cooling product carriers are introduced into the cooking chamber; the respective treatment positions are defined by the cooking product carriers; this accessary 1 has a plurality of antennae 4a-4'f; the accessary is separated from the cooking chamber by an equipment chamber or a technical chamber; a microwave power source is arranged in the technical chamber; microwaves with wavelengthλcan be supplied to the plurality of antennae through a line system by the microwave power source; each treatment position is arranged in the cooking chamber as a resonant body for the microwaves radiated into the cooking chamber; the resonant body is defined by a cooking product carrier and a ceiling of the cooking chamber or between two cooking product carriers; and the antennae are designed as detunedλ/4 rods in order to supply essentially the same quantity of microwave energy to the cooking products in each treatment position.
