ARRANGEMENT FOR CONTINUOUS HEAT TREATMENT WITH MICROWAVE ENERGY

摘要

An arrangement for continuous heat treatment with microwave energy of product units comprises a treatment chamber (6) in the form of a tunnel. It also comprises means (2, 8, 9) to generate and distribute microwave energy in the chamber and a conveyor belt (3) which is transparent to microwaves for transportation of the product units (7) through the chamber. In the treatment chamber (6) there are means (10) which shield parts of the product units from microwave energy during the transportation through the treatment chamber.
