Definitions

  • a high frequency heating apparatus such as an oven, using microwave energy having an enclosure with an opening into the heating cavity which is to be sealed by the door. Peripheral metallic surfaces of the enclosure surrounding the opening and the door are spaced apart to leave a gap when the door is closed, the surfaces defining a parallel plate transmission line.
  • the gap includes a first narrow portion of a quarter wavelength of the frequency of the energy from the heating source originating from an origin, which is the closest point to the entry into the heating cavity, which origin point serves as the input to the transmission line.
  • a wide gap portion of a quarter wavelength has one end located adjacent the first narrow gap and a second narrow gap portion is located adjacent the other end of the wide gap portion.
  • the second narrow gap portion is of a length less than a quarter wavelength long and is the output point of the transmission line. Due to the step down ratio of the transmission line the input point at the first narrow gap portion has a relatively low impedance which prevents energy from leaking out of the cavity.
  • a typical conventional seal means for. preventing leakage of radiation is a metallic spring contact means provided either on the door of the heating apparatus or on the front of the enclosure.
  • the contact is likely to become poor, unless the spring is kept clean with special care, resulting in leakage of electromagnetic energy.
  • a gap is provided between the metal peripheral wall surface surrounding the opening of the oven enclosure of a high frequency heating apparatus and the metal peripheral surface of the door for closing the said opening in order to dispense with a conventional metal-tometal contacts and to avoid generation of an electric arc between the door and enclosure.
  • the peripheral wall surface encompassing the opening of the enclosure and the peripheral surface of the door are so constructed that they are opposite to each other, but not in contact, when the door is closed, to
  • a groove of a quarter wavelength in width is provided in the peripheral surface of the door and/or enclosure spaced a quarter wavelength away from the origin of the gap defined by the door and the enclosure at the entrance into the cavity.
  • the origin of the gap is effectively the input to the transmission line.
  • the gap from the origin to the groove is a quarter wavelength in length.
  • the width of the gap in the first narrow groove portion is substantially smaller than that formed by the groove.
  • a second narrow output gap portion is located adjacent the groove at a point remote from the origin and serves as the output point of the transmission line. This second narrow gap is substantially small in length with respect to a quarter wavelength of the operating frequency.
  • a quarter wavelength is preferred for the length of each of the wide and narrow (origin) gap portions they may be an odd number times the quarter wavelength of the electromagnetic wave in question.
  • the characteristic impedance of each narrow gap portion is relatively small, while that of the wide gap portion is relatively large.
  • the transmission line serve as an impedance transformer with respect to the high frequency energy.
  • the impedance at the output point which is comparatively small due to narrowness of the gap at this point, but not zero due to non-metallic contact of the two opposing surfaces, is transformed step-down-wise at the input point into an impedance much smaller than the impedance at the output point.
  • the extremely small impedance at the gap origin, or the input point efi'ectively prevents leakage of the high frequency energy through the gap.
  • the door in accordance with the invention may be opened'and closed just in the same conventional way, while the heating apparatus is not operating.
  • a dielectric material may be inserted into the gap between all or a portion of the two opposing surfaces so that thegap can be made small enough to avoid generation of an arc and at the same time the efiective wavelength of the energy from the apparatus in connection with the transmission line is shortened.
  • the word wavelength" used in connection with this invention means the wavelength of the high frequency electromagnetic energy generated in the high frequency heating apparatus and transmitted through the transmission line formed between the peripheral surfaces of the door and the enclosure of the said heating apparatus. For instance, therefore, if a high frequency energy supply apparatus generating such energy at the frequency of about 2,450 magahertz is used, one wavelength in this case corresponds to ca. 122.4 mm in the air.
  • the space between the surfaces may be filled with a dielectric material, in which case the wavelength of radiated energy may be made even shorter.
  • the word wavelength should not be construed to means only the wavelength of the high frequency energy propagated in the air but also in a dielectric medium.
  • the principal object of the invention is to provide a seal means for a microwave type heating device having a comparatively simplified structure, which is easy to manufacture, for efiectively preventing leakage of high frequency energy'through a gap formed between opposing surfaces of the periphery of the door and the periphery of the opening of the oven enclosure of the high frequency heating apparatus, which surfaces are not in metallic contact with each other.
