Definitions
- the invention relates to the field of antennas for microwave ovens, especially for household microwave ovens.
- microwaves are sent into the oven cavity to make a heating operation.
- This heating operation can constitute a simple reheating of food or cooking food.
- microwaves form a standing wave network in the oven cavity.
- This standing wave network has hot spots and cold spots.
- the food whether it should be cooked or simply reheated, must be as uniformly as possible.
- the distribution of microwaves in the oven cavity must therefore be homogenized so as to attenuate the points hot and cold spots existing in this cavity.
- the cavity also includes a turntable for food which allows to achieve fairly uniform heating of the food.
- the invention proposes to achieve a homogeneous heating of the food, without resorting to the presence of a turntable in the cavity.
- the invention provides an antenna for homogenizing the distribution of microwaves in the cavity.
- an antenna comprising an axis conductive and a conductive emitting surface bonded to one end of the axis, characterized in that the antenna has a dielectric junction linking the axis and the emitting surface so as to establish a discontinuity electric between the axis and the emitting surface and in that the surface emitter does not have a symmetry of revolution around the direction axis average.
- a microwave oven comprising a microwave transmitter, a cooking cavity, a guide wave connecting the transmitter to the cavity, an antenna according to the invention, characterized in that the axis is partially located in the waveguide, the emitting surface is located in the cavity and is movable in rotation around of the axis, the emitting surface not having a symmetry of revolution around the mean direction of the axis in order to disturb the waves which may exist in the cavity.
- Figure 1A schematically shows a perspective view of a preferred embodiment of an antenna according to the invention.
- Figure 1B schematically represents a sectional view along the axis AA of the figure 1A.
- the axis AA is shown in dotted lines.
- the different elements shown in Figures 1A and 1B are not necessarily the same scale, this remaining true for FIGS. 2A to 3D.
- the antenna has a axis 1 to which an emitting surface 2 is linked by means of a junction 3. Junction 3 does not have hatching in Figure 1B for better readability of the figure.
- the axis 1 is linked to the emitting surface 2, by the junction 3, at the end 11 of the axis 1.
- the axis 1 and the surface transmitter 2 are made of conductive material.
- the conductive material is preferably very conductive, of the metallic type, so as to minimize energy losses in the antenna.
- the metal considered is by example of copper or brass.
- the highly conductive nature of the material is more critical for axis 1 than for emitting surface 2 because it is generally a part with a more surface shape than the axis 1.
- the junction 3 is made of dielectric material. Junction 3 links emitting surface 2 to axis 1 so as to establish an electrical discontinuity between axis 1 and the surface emitting surface 2.
- the emitting surface 2 does not have a symmetry of revolution around the mean direction ⁇ M of the axis 1.
- the straight line AM is shown in dashed lines.
- the emitting surface 2 comprises for example a slot 4 which breaks its symmetry of revolution even when the shape of the emitting surface 2 is for example that of a disc or a crown.
- the axis 1 of the antenna is partially located in the waveguide from the oven as explained in Figure 2A.
- the function of the antenna is to emit microwaves into the oven cavity.
- the antenna has a microwave reception / emission function. Indeed, the part of the axis 1 located in the waveguide receives the energy present in the waveguide while the part of the axis 1 located in the cavity radiates, in the cavity from the oven, the energy received by the part of axis 1 located in the waveguide.
- the part of axis 1 located in the cavity is that which is in contact with the dielectric junction 3, at the end 11.
- the emitting surface 2 then plays the role of auxiliary waveguide for the energy radiated by the part of axis 1 located in the oven cavity.
- Slot 4 can then reflect the energy conveyed in the annex waveguide constituted by the emitting surface 2 as well as through the wall of the cavity opposite the Emitting surface 2.
- the emitting surface 2 does not emit strictly speaking, it is only the radiating slot 4 that comprises the emitting surface 2, which transmits. Part of the energy thus conveyed is emitted to the rest of the cavity at the outer edges 21 of the emitting surface 2.
- a shape and adequate size of the axis 1, the emitting surface 2, the dielectric junction 3 which are adapted to the oven cavity, allow to obtain a homogeneous distribution of microwaves in the oven cavity. To achieve this homogenization, the dielectric nature of the Junction 3 is essential.
- the absence of symmetry of revolution of the surface transmitter 2 around the axis 1 of rotation of the antenna allows the antenna to adequately disturb the distribution of microwaves in the cavity oven when the antenna is rotating around its axis 1.
- Axis 1 is preferably centered relative to the emitting surface 2, as in FIGS. 1A and 1B. If axis 1 is off-center, i.e. if axis 1 is closer to a particular location on the periphery 21 than other, the slot 4 will preferably be located between this location and the axis 1 of so as to maintain maximum efficiency at slot 4 in terms of amount of energy returned.
- the emitting surface 2 is preferably substantially planar.
- the angle a that axis 1 makes with the mean plane of the emitting surface 2 is preferably substantially equal to a right angle. If the angle ⁇ is not a right angle, the slot 4 will preferably be located on the side of the surface emitter 2 which makes the greatest angle with axis 1. If the emitting surface 2 is not planar, if for example it is curved, it is preferable that axis 1 is not on the side of the concavity of the curved shape of so as to avoid a risk of electric arc between the emitting surface 2 and the antenna walls when the antenna is operating in the oven.
- the emitting surface 2 preferably has a rounded shape.
- the emitting surface 2 whether on its edges or on its surface, does not then presents no angle, corner or point which would risk being at the source of electric arc phenomena.
- the emitting surface 2 a advantageously either a crown shape as in FIGS. 1A and 1B, i.e. a disc shape if the mechanical assembly of the three parts that are the axis 1, the emitting surface 2 and the junction 3 does not require the presence of a hole in the emitting surface 2.
- This crown shape or in disc has a symmetry of revolution around axis 1.
- Axis 1 is preferably entirely located on the same side of the emitting surface 2.
- the axis 1 then does not cross the emitting surface 2.
- the energy is generally radiated perpendicular to axis 1 of the antenna to be conveyed between the wall of the oven cavity and the emitting surface 2, before being partially re-radiated by the slot 4. If the end 11 of axis 1 leads to the other side of the emitting surface 2, a significant part of the energy radiated by axis 1 is in the extension of axis 1 and not perpendicular to axis 1.
- Such a directional character of the antenna makes it more difficult to homogenize the wave distribution in the oven cavity.
- the asymmetrical nature of the emitting surface 2 is ensured by the presence of a radiating slot 4 which is advantageously rectangular.
- the radiant slot 4 distributes the energy time-averaged in the oven cavity, i.e. distributed over the oven cavity the average energy over a given period of time corresponding for example to the antenna rotation period when the latter rotates at constant speed.
- FIG. 2A schematically represents a front view of a preferential embodiment of a microwave oven according to the invention.
- the figure 2B schematically represents an enlarged detail of FIG. 2A.
- the oven microwave described in Figures 2A and 2B is a microwave oven domestic cooking for food. But this oven can also have other applications as explained later.
- the oven has a transmitter 5 microwave, preferably a magnetron 5.
- the microwave transmitter 5 which will be considered later as a magnetron, emits microwaves in a waveguide 6.
- the propagation direction of the energy carried by the waves is indicated throughout FIG. 2A by solid line arrows.
- the oven comprises an antenna according to the invention, with its axis 1, its emitting surface 2 and its junction 3.
- the axis 1 is preferably distant from the end of the waveguide 6 situated on the side opposite to that of magnetron 5, from a distance substantially equal to one-eighth of the average wavelength of microwaves in waveguide 6, so that a maximum of energy can be received in the waveguide 6 then re-emitted in the cavity 7 by the antenna.
- the length of the part of the axis 1 located outside the waveguide 6 is greater or substantially equal to the length of the part of axis 1 located in the guide 6. In this way, most of the energy received by the antenna in the waveguide 6 is radiated by the antenna in the cavity 7.
- the oven has a cavity 7 in which the antenna is located, excluding a part of its axis 1 located in the waveguide 6.
- the waveguide annex 60 previously mentioned is the space between the surface emitter 2 and the wall 70 of the cavity 7 which is opposite the surface transmitter 2.
- the radiant slot 4 then appears as a "hole” in this waveguide annex 60, hole which radiates part of the energy found in the annex waveguide 60.
- the wall 70 is advantageously the bottom wall of the cavity 7.
- the axis 1 is preferably perpendicular to the wall 70 so as to allow a more homogeneous distribution of the waves radiated by the antenna.
- Axis 1 is preferably perpendicular to the direction X of the length of the waveguide 6 connecting the magnetron 5 to the cavity 7.
- the directions X and Y correspond respectively to the horizontal and vertically in Figures 2A and 2B.
- the oven also includes, for example, a plate 8 supporting a food 9. These are located so that the energy radiated by the antenna is at least partially directed towards the food 9.
- the antenna according to the invention is advantageously located in the lower part of the cavity 7, heating food 9 directly mainly by below. The reflections of the waves on the walls of the cavity 7 allow also to heat food 9 from above.
- the cavity 7 has a bottom wall 70, top wall 72 and side walls 71.
- the cavity 7 can also advantageously include an antenna complementary 10, this one for example of the classic type, that is to say all metal, located in the upper part of the cavity 7 so that it can optionally heat or cook food 9 directly from both sides, from above and from below.
- the additional antenna is then preferably located at the level of the upper wall 72 of the cavity 7.
- the additional antenna 10 allows, if necessary, to perform a "two level" cooking, that is to say cooking two at the same time foods each placed on a separate baking tray; when there is only one antenna, one of the foods risks under certain conditions of hide the other food.
- This complementary antenna 10 can be powered by another magnetron, not shown here.
- the speed of rotation is substantially constant and is worth a few tens of revolutions per minute, advantageously of the order of thirty revolutions per minute.
- An antenna rotation speed too low can lead to insufficient homogenization of the distribution microwaves in cavity 7, while too much rotational speed high may eventually hide the slot 4 and thus also deteriorate homogenization of the distribution of microwaves in the cavity 7.
- the rotation of the antenna which has no symmetry of revolution around of its axis 1, constantly disturbs over time the waves located in cavity 7 and homogenizes their distribution in cavity 7 by disrupting the establishment of a standing wave regime in the cavity, which diet would still have hot spots and cold spots.
- FIG. 2B schematically represents an enlarged detail of FIG. 2A, namely the region of the oven which surrounds the antenna according to the invention.
- the width I 1 of the waveguide 6 is substantially 14mm.
- the thickness e 1 of the lower wall 70 of the cavity 7 is substantially 1.6 mm.
- the width I 2 of the annex waveguide 60 is substantially 12mm.
- the diameter D of the emitting surface 2 is substantially 110mm. It is preferable to avoid taking a diameter D too close to the average wavelength of microwaves in air, here around 122mm, because the efficiency of the antenna is then reduced.
- the thickness e 2 of the emitting surface is approximately 1mm.
- the emitting surface 2 shown in FIG. 2B is in the form of a crown and the distance d 2 in the direction X between the interior of the crown and the axis 1 is substantially 8 mm while the distance d 3 in the direction Y between l inside the crown and the axis 1 is substantially 1mm.
- the distance d 1 in the direction of the direction Y between the axis 1 and the wall of the waveguide 6 is substantially 3mm.
- the average wavelength of the microwaves in the waveguide 6 being approximately 168mm
- the distance d 4 in the direction of the direction Y between the axis 1 and the end of the waveguide 6 located on the opposite side the magnetron 5 is approximately 20mm, or approximately one-eighth of the average wavelength of the microwaves in the waveguide 6.
- the dimensions of the cavity 7 in this preferred example are substantially 420mm in the X direction, 210mm in the Y direction and 372mm in the depth of the cavity 7, that is to say in a direction perpendicular to the plane of the Figures 2A and 2B. With different dimensions for the cavity 7, the dimensions of the antenna itself and of its relative positioning in the oven would be different, but the general shape of the antenna and its general arrangement would advantageously remain similar.
- the antenna according to the invention comprises a dielectric junction 3, which allows a better distribution of microwaves at the level of the antenna and therefore a better homogenization of the distribution of microwave in cavity 7. If the antenna was entirely metallic as in the prior art, the waves would be radiated especially according to the direction X which is the direction of the length of the waveguide 6 connecting the magnetron 5 to the cavity 7.
- the antenna is movable in rotation around its axis 1.
- the different parts of the antenna are stationary the relative to each other, and axis 1 rotates around itself the emitting surface 2 in its rotation.
- Axis 1 can also be fixed by relative to the oven while the rest of the antenna rotates around axis 1.
- the axis 1 is for example hollow and the emitting surface 2 is then linked to axis 1 by a dielectric junction 3 comprising a part axial mobile in rotation and located in the hollow of axis 1.
- the antenna preferably has at least one slot 4 radiant so as to disturb the waves located in the cavity 7, which otherwise would be in standing wave regime.
- a wave regime stationary has corresponding hot spots and cold spots to a somewhat homogeneous distribution of the waves in the cavity 7.
- the radiant slot 4 is elongated and the length direction of the slot 4 is substantially perpendicular to the straight line connecting the center of the slot 4 to the center of gravity of the end 11 of the axis 1 linked to the emitting surface 2.
- the perimeter of the radiating slot 4 is substantially equal to the average wavelength in the air of the microwaves carried by the waveguide 6.
- All the points on the periphery of the slot 4 radiant are preferentially distant from the center of gravity of the end 11 of the axis 1 linked to the emitting surface 2, from a distance greater than or substantially equal to one-eighth of the wavelength mean in the air of the microwaves carried by the waveguide 6.
- FIGS. 3A to 3D schematically represent a view of above respectively a first, a second, a third, and of a fourth preferred embodiment of the emitting surface of a antenna according to the invention.
- Figures 3A to 3C show different emitting surfaces 2 comprising different radiating slots 4.
- the figure 3D represents an emitting surface 2 not comprising any radiant slit but rather a fin 20 as a disturbing element waves located in the cavity 7.
- FIG. 3A represents an emitting surface 2 in the form of an outer edge crown 21.
- the end 11 of the axis 1 of the antenna has a center of gravity 10.
- the radiating slot 4 is of substantially elongated rectangular shape. Its perimeter p is the average wavelength in the air of the microwaves located in the cavity 7 of the oven. All the points of the periphery of the slot 4, that is to say all the points located along the perimeter p are at a distance greater than or equal to the distance b, which is greater than or equal to the eighth of the length d medium wave in the air of the microwaves located in the cavity 7 of the oven.
- the slot 4 has a center 41 and a length in the direction ⁇ 1.
- the line ⁇ 1 is perpendicular to the line joining the center 41 to the center of gravity 10.
- the radiation from such a slot is more homogeneous than the radiation from a slot whose length would be parallel to the straight line joining the center 41 at the center of gravity 10.
- This slot of length parallel to the radius of the emitting surface 2 would have a radiation of decreasing intensity from the center of the emitting surface 2 towards its edge 21, while the radiation of a slit cutting the radii of the emitting surface 2 as in FIG. 3A is substantially constant over the entire surface of the slot 4.
- the strip of conductive material separating the inner circle 22 of the crown from the periphery of the slot 4 should be sufficiently wide to avoid excessive heating at this level: in practice a few millimeters are sufficient.
- the length L f of the slot 4 is worth substantially 60mm while its width l f is worth substantially 10mm.
- FIG. 3B represents an emitting surface 2 comprising two elongated radiating slots 4 of the type described in FIG. 3A.
- the lengths of these slots 4 have the respective directions the lines ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 shown in dotted lines.
- the slots 4 are arranged so not to be parallel to each other.
- the directions ⁇ 1 and ⁇ 2 intersect in preferably forming an acute angle between them.
- an antenna corresponding to FIG. 3B radiates less energy at level of its periphery, that is to say of its edge 21, that an antenna corresponding to FIG. 3A. In the case of Figure 3B, most of the energy is radiated towards the center of the cavity 7.
- FIG. 3C represents an emitting surface 2 comprising a radiant V-shaped slot 4 with truncated point 43, the extensions 42 of the two branches of the V passing substantially through the center of gravity 10 of the emitting surface 2.
- the constraints concerning the distance b remain the same as for Figures 3A and 3B.
- the angle between them two branches 42 of the V allow the slot to pass a range microwave frequencies wider than a shape allows rectangular slot, however determining the parameters of the V shape remains more critical than that corresponding to a shape rectangular.
- FIG. 3D represents an emitting surface comprising a fin 20 as a disturbing element of the waves located in the cavity of oven.
- the presence of the fin 20 has the same function as the presence of the radiant slots 4 on the other figures, namely to break the symmetry of revolution of the emitting surface 2 around axis 1 and modulating the intensity of energy radiated by the antenna to the oven cavity.
- the fin 20 has a homogenization efficiency lower than that of a radiant slot 4.
- the microwave oven previously described applies to preferably domestic cooking ovens, but can also apply to any other type of oven in which a microwave distribution in a cavity must be homogenized, such as for example industrial heating or drying ovens.
- the industrial ovens of drying can relate to areas like drying wood, textile or tobacco as well as the drying carried out in the tunnels of screen printing.
- the microwave oven concerns purely microwave ovens as well as combi ovens, i.e. traditional ovens having minus a cooking and / or heating mode carried out by microwave.
- the antenna according to the invention can also exist in conjunction with a turntable.
- the antenna will placed for example in the upper part of the oven cavity, while the turntable will traditionally remain at the bottom from the oven cavity.
- the antenna according to the invention In the oven operating modes where the turntable is stopped, for example in the case of cooking with a large rectangular dish, homogenization of the microwave distribution in the oven cavity will then be ensured by the antenna according to the invention. It is likewise possible to envisage modes making simultaneously operate a traditional turntable with a antenna according to the invention, in order to obtain homogenization optimal in the oven cavity.
