Abstract: Disclosed is an air diffusion device including a base coupled to an air supply pipe and having an air discharge hole for discharge of air supplied from the air supply pipe, a perforated cover having a single-layered flat plate shape, and a securing mechanism to secure the perforated cover to the base. The perforated cover having through-holes is coupled to an upper surface of the base to cover the air discharge hole, defining an air guide chamber between the perforated cover and the base. The air diffusion device has ease in assembly/disassembly thereof because the perforated cover is assembled to the base via the securing mechanism separably coupled to the base. Further, through provision of a diaphragm cover to open or close an air discharge hole for discharge of air into the air guide chamber, it is possible to prevent wastewater, sludge, or impurities from entering the air supply pipe.

Abstract: A multi-disc air diffuser according to the present invention comprises a bolt having a vent groove formed in a longitudinal direction thereof; a plurality of discs, each of the discs having a bolt joint section to be passed through the bolt, an air room for holding the air supplied through the vent groove, and a nozzle section having a plurality of nozzles which are arranged in an end part of the air room at a regular size and intervals, wherein the lower surface of each of the discs is more than the upper surface thereof and the outer circumference surface of each of the discs is formed to be inclined; and a backflow prevention section for joining to an end part of the bolt to adhere closely the discs to one another, connecting the vent groove to an air supply pipe, and having a check valve to prevent the air flowing backward from the vent groove to the air supply pipe.

Abstract: An enamel coating including a phosphate-based ingredient is provided on an inner surface of a cooking chamber and the inner surface of the cooking chamber is cleaned using high-temperature cleaning water. Therefore, the cleaning of the cooking chamber can be performed more efficiently.
