Definitions

  • the invention is partly based upon the insight that also in respect of, inter alia, the organoleptic properties of many kinds of products intended for consumption other than eggs, it is advantageous to expose them to the microwave field only to a slight extent, if at all, during heating and not to have them contact water for a long time.
  • the apparatus according to the example shown in Figs. 1-3 has a container 1 from more or less form-retaining material having cavities 4, 5, 6 and 7, each for receiving a product intended for consumption in the form of an egg.
  • the cavities 4, 5, 6 and 7 are recessed partly in an upper part 2 and partly in a lower part 3 of the container 1.
  • the energy conversion medium in which the conversion of microwaves into heat takes place, is present in an energy conversion unit in which the energy conversion medium is kept separate from the product, the laborious process of filling the container with an energy conversion medium is not necessary. Further, shortening of the storage life of the egg through contact with a liquid energy conversion medium is prevented, so that it is possible without any problem to place the eggs in the container already a long time before their preparation. Hence, the container can also be used for storing the eggs.
  • the material in which the energy conversion takes place is material of the container 1
  • the advantage achieved is that the same material is used for keeping the egg to be heated in position and for converting microwave energy, which enables an efficient construction.
  • the material of the container 1 is located close to the egg 19 to be heated, which promotes an intensive energy transfer from the heated material to the egg 19.
  • Water included in the form retaining material also, or optionally exclusively, serves to convert microwave energy into heat.
  • a material or component having hygroscopic properties such as gypsum, sugar, kitchen salt, or special salts may be applied, so that the material in cool condition absorbs moisture from the air, which subsequently serves as energy conversion medium.
  • the more or less form-retaining material may have pores for absorbing water or another microwave-absorbing medium.
  • the microwave energy-converting medium is driven from the material of the container 1 under the influence of a microwave field, the energy-absorbing capacity of the container 1 automatically decreases as it is exposed to the microwave field.
  • the danger of overheating in the case of a long exposure to a microwave field - for instance because the user forgets that eggs are being boiled in the microwave apparatus - is limited.
  • the microwave shields 8-11 are likewise divided into parts included in the upper part 2 and the lower part 3 of the container 1.
  • the parts of the microwave shield are provided with flanged edges 16, 17 which are in flat abutment when the upper part 2 of the container 1 is positioned on the lower part 3 of the container 1.
  • the edges are directed inwards or outwards and interconnect properly to prevent sparking in the area of the connection between the parts 2 and 3 of the container 1.
  • the shields 8-11 each function as one whole.
  • raw eggs 19 are positioned in the portions of the recesses 4-7 in the lower part 3 of the container 1.
  • the upper part 2 of the container 1 is placed onto the lower part 3 of the container 1.
  • the egg is confined in material for converting microwave energy and at the same time, the provision of the shield of the egg against microwaves has been completed.
  • the container 1 is placed in a microwave apparatus. As a matter of fact, these operations can in principle be performed in any desired order.
  • a field of microwaves is generated in the area of the egg, microwave energy in the area of the egg being converted into heat, which heat is transferred to the egg.
  • the apparatus Since the conversion of microwaves into heat, at least for some time after the start of the generation of the field of microwaves in the area of the egg, takes place in the more or less form-retaining material, it is not necessary to fill a container with water or other loose materials to obtain the desired microwave-absorbing properties. Hence, the apparatus is always immediately ready for use and can always be stored immediately after use. The release of water is at least substantially limited, thus preventing the corrosion-promoting precipitation of moisture in the microwave apparatus.
  • the handgrip 12 is manufactured from a material which absorbs microwaves very little, if at all, and which forms a poor thermal conductor. For this, for instance, various types of glass and plastic can be used, for instance known for application in tableware intended for use in a microwave oven (other than for forming a crust). Hence, the handgrip 12 is hardly heated, if at all, despite the high temperature of the upper and lower parts 2 and 3 of the container 1 during use.
  • the container 1 For determining what temperature has been reached, the container 1 comprises temperature indicators 14 and 15. These temperature indicators 14 and 15 enable accurate control of the degree of cooking of the eggs, such as hard-boiled or soft-boiled, also during cooking of the eggs in different types of microwave ovens.
  • the container 51 is manufactured from fibrous material and a substantially form-retaining material in the form of molded composite material from wood fibers and cement.
  • a substantially form-retaining material in the form of molded composite material from wood fibers and cement.
  • Such material is easy to mold into a shape, heats strongly in a microwave field and has a high flash point.
  • other materials such as cardboard, preferably having hygroscopic and flash point-reducing components.
  • eggs 69 Located in the container 51 are eggs 69, each having an egg shell 70, egg-white 71 and a yolk 72.
  • the container 51 forms part of a package in which the eggs 69 are packaged.
  • the eggs 69 are each provided with a shield 58 for shielding the egg 69 from microwaves, which shield 58 fits tightly around the shell 70.
  • the tight fit of the shield 58 around the shell 70 is advantageous for promoting the heat transfer to the egg 69. Due to its hygroscopic properties, the material of the container 51 contains, at least in operative condition, water that has remained behind since the manufacture and/or that has been absorbed from the surroundings.
  • the eggs 69 each carry the shields 58 against microwave radiation themselves, so that those shields can be realized with a very slight input of material.
  • the shields 58 are designed as electrically conductive sheet provided around the eggs 69.
  • the shields 58 against microwave radiation are further provided with passages 74, some of which are shown schematically. These passages 74 are so small that no or hardly any microwave energy penetrates therethrough into the eggs 69, but water vapor can actually penetrate therethrough to reach the shells 70 of the eggs 69. This further promotes the heat transfer. Moreover, upon longer heating of the material around the egg 69, water condensed against the shells of the eggs prevents overheating of the egg 69. Thus, the passages or perforations 74 on the one hand contribute to the shortening of the time required for giving an egg the desired degree of cooking, and on the other prevent overheating of the egg.
  • the shield 108 is designed as a nonperforated aluminum dish. Outside the shield 108, there is located in the container 101 water 125 for converting microwaves into heat. The water 125 is present in an energy conversion unit 126, so that the water 125, at least before the start of the generation of the microwave field, is kept separate from the product 119-121.
  • the water container 127 is designed in the form of a bag, such as a sachet, it can readily be prefabricated and added during the packaging of the food 119-121.
  • the container 101 enveloping the food 119-121 forms a substantially hermetically sealed covering of the food 119-121, so that moisture is prevented from escaping to the interior of the microwave oven.
  • this container is provided with a blow-off opening 131 closed off by a lip 132 for releasing the opening 131 in reaction to the exceeding of a given excess pressure within the container 101 relative to the surroundings.
  • the lid may be provided with a relatively thick layer of electrically conductive material or, for instance, be formed from thin-walled aluminum to form an effective shield.
  • the sheet 235 is provided with anticondensing material, so that the food 219 is also properly visible when presented in a refrigerated display.
  • a medicine 292 Located in the lowermost portion 253 is a medicine 292.
  • a sachet 277 containing bacteria-free water 275.
  • the container 251 with said content is placed in a microwave oven. Through action of the microwaves, the water 275 in the sachet 277 is heated.
  • the lower portion 253 is manufactured from a material such that under the influence of the microwave field, it is likewise heated, in the prescribed time, to about 100°C. According to this example, the lower portion 253 and the lid 252 are manufactured from glass.
  • the upper portion 302 there is a space for placing a sachet 327 with liquid 325, which opens under the influence of the microwaves and then heats the contents of the bag 308. It is possible to have the material from which the container 301 is made participate in the heating up of the contents of the bag 308 by selecting the appropriate material for the container 301.
