前記焼き網は、外枠と、
前記外枠により囲まれた領域を横切る金属製の棒材で構成された複数の橋渡し材と、を備え、
前記橋渡し材または前記橋渡し材と前記外枠とにより形成される1つの開口を構成する閉ループにおいて、1つの前記橋渡し材または1つの前記外枠で構成される1辺の長さを、前記マイクロ波発生部から供給されるマイクロ波の波長の1/2の整数倍以外とするとともに、前記閉ループにおいて、一端が前記加熱室の壁面と接触し他端が前記加熱室の内部に配置される1つの前記橋渡し材または1つの前記外枠で構成される1辺の長さを、前記マイクロ波発生部から供給されるマイクロ波の波長の1/4の整数倍以外となるよう構成されている。このように構成された第1の態様のマイクロ波加熱装置においては、マイクロ波加熱モードにおいて、焼き網における橋渡し材および/または外枠上に大きな電流が流れることがないため、焼き網における発熱が抑制され、エネルギー損失が少なく、高いエネルギー効率でマイクロ波加熱することができ、安価で、軽量で、耐久性に優れた加熱装置となる。
図1は、本発明のマイクロ波加熱装置としての例示である実施の形態1の加熱調理器の構成を模式的に示す正面断面図である。
実施の形態1の加熱調理器においては、被加熱物である食品5が焼き網4の上に載置され、当該食品5を上ヒータ2と下ヒータ3とにより上下から輻射加熱される構成を有している。
図3に示すように、加熱室1内の所定位置に装着された焼き網4Aは、外枠21Aが下レール12と上レール13とに挟まれるように配置されている。焼き網4Aが加熱室1の外に引き出されるとき、その引き出し途中において焼き網4Aが傾くことを防止するため上レール13が設けられている。
