  • Patent number: 7060954
    Abstract: Timing of zero voltage in zero-voltage detector for detecting zero voltage of a commercial power supply 1 is predicted and input from the zero-voltage detector 6 is received only for a given time before and after the predicted timing, whereby overvoltage and overcurrent caused by a zero point shift can be prevented. Thus, it is provided a magnetron drive power supply which is excellent in stability for change in the power supply environment such as noise or instantaneous power interruption.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6066838
    Abstract: A microwave oven including a defrosting step in which a target which must be heated is irradiated with microwaves which are irregular in terms of time at least when the phase of water in the target is shifted from a solid body to liquid. The microwave oven includes a magnetron for generating microwaves for dielectrically heating a target which must be heated; and a waveguide through which microwaves generated by the magnetron are propagated into a heating chamber, wherein a defrosting process is performed in such a manner that microwaves which are irregular in terms of time and which are in a chaos state are propagated through the waveguide at least when the phase of water in the target is shifted from a solid body to liquid.
