Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (a) Industrial application field The present invention relates to a frying device that uses microwave heating.

(b) Conventional technology This type of frying equipment has already been developed since 1987-21616.
It is known from publications such as No. In contrast to normal frying equipment that does not use microwaves, equipment that uses microwaves has a characteristic that the oil tank cannot be open to prevent radio wave leakage during operation. Therefore, the entrance and exit for food to the oil tank must be sealed with a door, just like in a normal microwave oven. However, water vapor, oil smoke, etc. generated during cooking condense on the inner surface of the door and leak to the outside through the gap between the door and the food entrance. Even if such a gap could be completely eliminated, condensed water droplets and oil droplets would still flow out when the door was opened.

(c) Problems that the invention aims to solve As mentioned above, water droplets and oil droplets that leak outside not only make the floor surface on which the equipment is installed unsanitary, but also make it slippery and dangerous. This is an attempt to effectively capture those that have leaked out.

(d) Means for Solving the Problems The frying device of the present invention includes a microwave heating chamber with an oil tank at the bottom, a front wall that partitions the entrance and exit of the heating chamber, and a method that connects the entrance and exit by coming into contact with the front wall. a side-opening door that closes, a mounting table located in front of the front wall and below the door;
A tray placed on the mounting table, a gutter located at an intermediate height between the door and the tray and closely attached to the front wall along the lower edge of the door when the door is closed; The device is equipped with a guide body that guides the liquid accumulated in the container into the tray.

(E) Effect According to the present invention, liquids such as water droplets and oil droplets flowing out from the periphery of the opening of the heating chamber are captured by the gutter and guided to the saucer, so that they do not flow down onto the floor surface.

(F) Embodiment The figure shows an apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, the device 1 is placed above the floor by the support 2, but the support 2 can be omitted. Microwaves generated from the magnetron 3 pass through the waveguide 4
It is supplied to the microwave heating chamber 5 through. The bottom of the heating chamber 5 is an oil tank 6 filled with edible oil, and the oil tank 6 is heated to a high temperature by a sheathed heater 7. The side-opening door 8 used in a normal microwave oven is in contact with the front wall 9.
The entrance/exit 10 of the heating chamber partitioned by is closed.

The mounting table 11 is located below the door 8 and the front wall 9
The tray 12 is placed on the front of the tray. The positioning pillars 13, 13 are the mounting table 11
The tray 12 is sandwiched between these pillars to determine its left and right position, and the rising front edge 11a of the mounting table 11, together with the front wall 9, determines the front and back position of the tray 12. An oil draining net 15 is placed in the saucer 12. A gutter 14 closely fixed to the front wall 9 is located at an intermediate height between the door 8 and the saucer 12, and is located along the lower edge of the door when the door is closed. Both ends of the gutter 14 are connected to walls 14a, 14
a, and its central side is cut down to form a guide body 14b that slopes toward the inside of the saucer 12.

In the above device, some of the water vapor and oil smoke generated in the heating chamber 5 condenses on the inner surface of the door 8 and becomes water droplets or oil droplets, and passes through the gap between the door 8 and the front wall 9 or when the door is opened. Although the liquid sometimes flows down the front wall 9, it is caught in the gutter 14, and these liquids accumulated in the gutter 14 are collected in the saucer 12 by the guide body 14b. The food that has been fried is taken out from the heating chamber 5 and placed in the net 15 in the saucer.
It is placed on top to drain the oil.

As another form of the guide body 14b, the guide body 14b may have a pipe shape that communicates with the lower surface of the gutter 14.

(G) Effects of the invention According to the invention, liquids such as water droplets and oil droplets that flow out from the periphery of the opening of the heating chamber are captured by the gutter and collected in the saucer, so they do not flow down onto the floor where the equipment is installed. The floor surface is kept clean, which is desirable from a sanitary and safety standpoint.
