Description

TECHNICAL FIELD [0001] The present invention relates to a vapor condensation kit for microwave oven,

The present invention relates to a technology for rapidly collecting and condensing water vapor generated by a microwave when cooking food or drying vegetable using a microwave oven.

Microwave ovens that heat or cook food using microwaves are a necessity that almost every household has. The microwave oven has the advantage of being able to heat and cook food quickly, and it is also easy to use.

The microwave oven uses a microwave generated from the magnetron to heat the object, which vibrates water molecules to enable rapid heating.

In recent years, small quantities of fruits and vegetables have been directly dried in ordinary households to be eaten as a healthy food, stored for a long period of time, and taken out as needed for food.

In fact, when the fruit is dried, the taste will be even better, so children can enjoy dried fruits instead of sweets. In addition, since various vegetables and fruits have a short distribution period, it is advantageous that they can contribute to environmental protection as well as cost reduction by drying and preserving remaining vegetables and fruits.

Cooking containers for microwave ovens are widely used. A typical prior art is Korean Patent No. 10-0645981, which is a system container for microwave cooking. Fig. 1 is an exploded perspective view of a microwave oven cooking system container.

As shown in FIG. 1, the prior art is a system container for cooking microwave oven comprising a container body, a lid and a cap, the container body having a body fitting portion at an upper portion thereof; Wherein the lid has a lid lower fitting portion at a lower portion and a lid recess portion at an upper portion thereof; The lid recess has a lid opening at the center, a lid upper fitting at the side, and a lid steam outlet; The cap having a cap engagement portion on a side surface thereof; Wherein the cap tight fitting portion, the cap lower fitting portion, the cap upper fitting portion, and the cap fitting portion are integrally joined to each other, and the cap tightening portion is formed by the cap opening portion and the cap steam outlet, or between the main body tightening fitting portion and the lid lower fitting portion, Air and steam are discharged.

Background Art [0002] A conventional system container for microwave cooking is a technique for reducing the pressure of steam generated during cooking to prevent the broth or the like from overflowing.

However, in order to effectively dry any object using a microwave oven, there is a great need to quickly remove the generated water vapor.

Korean Patent No. 10-0645981

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a steam condensation kit for a microwave oven which can increase energy efficiency by actively collecting water vapor generated from the food or vegetable by heating or drying the food or vegetable using the microwave oven do.

According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a steam condensing kit for a microwave oven, including a collecting bath at a lower portion thereof, a cooling chamber formed at an upper portion of the collecting bath, A cooling housing in which penetration of microwaves is blocked, but water vapor is introduced into the cooling room through the air holes; A cooling pack inserted into the cooling chamber; And a control unit.

Preferably, the cooling housing is configured to block penetration of the microwave, and the size of the air hole is such that the microwave can not pass through the air hole.

Preferably, the microwave shield is coupled to the outer surface of the cooling housing. The microwave shield may be a mesh network or a perforated network so that water vapor can pass through the microwave shield, but the microwave can not pass through.

The steam condensing kit for microwave oven according to the present invention can effectively maximize the energy efficiency by effectively condensing the water vapor generated when the microwave oven is used.

1 is an exploded perspective view of a microwave oven cooking system container having a container body, a lid and a cap.
2 is a schematic conceptual diagram of a steam condensation kit for microwave oven according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
3 is an example of the use of a steam condensation kit for microwave oven.

Hereinafter, a steam condensation kit for microwave oven according to the present invention will be described in more detail, with reference to the accompanying drawings.

2 is a schematic diagram of a steam condensation kit for microwave oven according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in the drawing, the steam condensing kit for microwave oven according to the present invention includes a cooling housing 100 and a cooling pack 200.

The cooling housing 100 includes a collecting bath 110 and a cooling room 120 so that the upper end of the cooling room 120 can be sealed by the stopper 130.

And a cooling chamber 120 is formed on the upper part of the collecting tank 110. [ The upper end of the collecting tank 110 is formed in a concave shape and the drain port 111 is formed in the central part so that the water generated in the cooling chamber 120 drops through the drain port 111 and flows into the collecting tank 110 So that it can be assembled.

A plurality of air holes 121 are formed on the outer wall of the cooling chamber 120 so that water vapor can pass through the air holes 121 but not through the air holes 121.

The microwave should not penetrate into the cooling housing 100, and there are two ways to implement the microwave.

First, the cooling housing 110 is made of a material that can not penetrate the microwave, and the size of the air hole 121 formed in the cooling chamber 120 is selected so that the microwave can not pass therethrough .

Secondly, the microwave shielding member 140 is coupled to the outer surface of the cooling housing 100, and the microwave shielding member 140 is formed into a mesh network or a perforated network so that water vapor can pass therethrough while preventing the microwave from passing therethrough.

The cooling pack 200 is inserted into the cooling room 120, which means that the cooling pack 200 is frozen in the refrigerator. The cooling pack 200 may be in the form of a metallic block or a rod, or it may contain liquid such as water. Preferably, the cooling pack 200 has a large surface area.

Next, the operation principle of the steam condensation kit for microwave oven according to the present invention will be described.

FIG. 3 shows an example of using a steam condensation kit for a microwave oven. The microwave oven is used to dry vegetables and fruits.

A pot 400 capable of holding vegetables or fruits is inserted into the microwave oven 300 and a steam condensation kit A for microwave oven is placed at the center or around the pot 400.

When the microwave oven 300 is operated, a microwave is generated to heat vegetables and fruits placed on the tray 400, and steam is generated.

On the other hand, the steam condensation kit (A) for the microwave oven maintains a relatively low temperature, and the microwave can not transmit the steam condensation kit (A) for the microwave oven.

However, the generated water vapor flows into the cooling chamber 120 of the coagulation kit due to the temperature difference, and quickly condenses on the surface of the cooling pack 200 to change into water.

The water formed by the condensation collects in the collecting tank 110 and the temperature of the cooling pack 200 will be slightly increased. However, when a small amount of the drying object is to be dried, the water vapor is effectively condensed with a sufficient temperature difference, .

The present invention can be used to dry vegetables or fruits using a microwave oven.
