  • Patent number: 4315495
    Abstract: An oven door has a sleeve removably receiving a hinge element so the door may be released from its hinges for easy oven cleaning. The hinge element is in the form of an elongated and generally tubular structure having a somewhat resilient lever in its hollow interior, the lever being pivoted between its ends to the hinge element. The ends of the lever have projections extending out from a side of the hollow hinge element for resilient engagement with the sleeve to eliminate looseness between the door and hinge element.

  • Patent number: 4088863
    Abstract: In a microwave oven, a cordless probe for monitoring the temperature of the substance being cooked. The probe has an ionizable gas in a bulb which emits a glow when activated by the microwaves. When the preselected temperature is reached, the bulb is covered with a shield, thus quenching the emissions. The probe can be used alone, in which case the operator must visually monitor the probe, or in combination with a circuit containing a photosensitive element to monitor the probe condition.
