Abstract: An oven, which both satisfies heat insulating and cooling of a door by adjusting an air flow in channels formed in the door. The oven includes a plurality of channels provided in a door, into which external air flows, accompanied with air discharged by a discharge duct, such that the air flows in the plurality of the channels, and a flow conversion part formed above at least one of the plurality of the channels for stagnating the flow of air. Since the door insulates a cooking chamber from heat and is cooled using a difference of pressures between upper and lower portions of the door, the oven concurrently satisfies conflicting two requirements, such as heat insulating and cooling of the door.

Abstract: An oven having enhanced cooling efficiency. The oven includes a cooking chamber, a door to open or close a front side of the cooking chamber, a cooling fan located above the cooking chamber to suction and blow outside air, a discharge duct to discharge the air, blown by the cooling fan, forward of the door, a plurality of flow-paths defined in the door to allow outside air to be introduced into and moved in the flow-path in association with discharge of the air through the discharge duct, and a suction pipe to connect at least one of the flow-paths and the cooling fan to each other. Suction force of the cooling fan is applied to the flow-paths of the door through the suction pipe as well as the interior of an electric machine room, allowing the air in the flow-path to be discharged to the outside through the suction pipe and the discharge duct. This assures more active air movement in the door and maximizes the cooling effect of the door.

Abstract: A machine room cooling structure of an oven which relatively enlarges the inner volume of a cooking room by lowering the height of the machine room is provided. The machine room cooling structure includes a fan forcibly blowing air of the machine room, a motor driving the fan, an exhaust duct guiding air of the machine room to an area in front of the oven, and a support bracket to install the motor at a suction hole of the exhaust duct, the support bracket includes a base unit, a motor combining unit on which a core of the motor is placed, and bridge parts connecting the base unit and the motor combining unit, and the motor combining unit is formed such that the height of the lower end of the core is equal to or lower than the height of the upper end of the exhaust duct.

Abstract: A cooking apparatus equipped with a heating device enabling uniform distribution of heat. The cooking apparatus includes a plate to put a cooker thereon, a heater disposed under the plate, and a guide member disposed between the plate and the heater to induce energy emitted from the heater toward the plate.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a heater for cookers with high economical efficiency and improved performance, a method of manufacturing the same, and a cooker including the heater. The heater for cookers includes a heat-generator, and a heater body to house the heat-generator, a surface of the heater body having a prominence/depression pattern provided by surface-treating. The heater body is processed by sandblasting.

Abstract: A coating composition and a cooking device and/or cooking receptacle coated with the coating composition are described. The coating composition includes 10 to 30 wt. % of SiO2, 10 to 30 wt. % of P2O5, 10 to 30 wt. % of Al2O3, 1 to 20 wt. % of TiO2, 7 to 15 wt. % of Na2O, 7 to 15 wt. % of K2O, 5 to 10 wt. % of ZrO2, 2 to 5 wt. % of BaO, 2 to 5 wt. % of B2O3, 1 to 2 wt. % of MnO2, and an adhesion enhancer. The coating composition provides favorable thermal resistance, acid resistance and mechanical properties, such that a cooking device and/or receptacle coated with the coating composition may be easily cleaned at a relatively low temperature.

Abstract: A microwave oven includes two doors which primarily and secondarily prevent a leakage of microwaves from a cooking cavity during a cooking operation. A first door is rotatably hinged to a front wall of a cabinet of the microwave oven, so as to open and close an opening of the cooking cavity and primarily prevent the leakage of the microwaves from the cooking cavity. A second door is rotatably mounted to the cabinet in front of the first door to cover and uncover the front of the first door. The second door thus secondarily intercepts the microwaves which have leaked from the cooking cavity through a gap between the first door and the cabinet. The microwave oven effectively prevents almost all leakage of the microwaves from the cooking cavity during the cooking operation.
