Abstract: A wall-mounted type microwave oven has an improved assembling structure of a lighting device to afford reduction of manufacturing cost and ease of assembly. The lighting device includes an opening formed at a bottom panel of the microwave oven, a lamp housing mounted on the bottom panel to cover the opening and having a lamp therein, a window bracket provided at the opening and having a transparent window thereon, support pieces provided at the bottom panel and extended toward the lamp housing, hooks formed at either the support pieces or the lamp housing, and hook holes formed at another of the support pieces and the lamp housing, coupling plates provided at the lamp housing and the window bracket, coupling holes formed at the coupling plates of the lamp housing and the window bracket, and a screw to be tightened into the coupling holes.

Abstract: A wall-mounted type microwave oven to prevent deformation and drooping of an outer cabinet thereof. The microwave oven includes an outer cabinet defining an outer appearance of the wall-mounted type microwave oven, and an inner cabinet disposed in the outer cabinet with a predetermined spacing therebetween. The inner cabinet includes a hanger member extending from the inner cabinet to allow the inner cabinet to be secured to an installation base, and a fastening device to secure the hanger member to the installation base. The hanger member secures the inner cabinet as well as the outer cabinet to the installation base. A weight of the wall-mounted type microwave oven is distributed to the outer cabinet and the inner cabinet, thereby preventing deformation of the outer cabinet.

Abstract: A microwave oven includes a motor for a stirrer and a motor mounting unit. The motor is provided at an outer circumferential surface thereof with a first flange having a hole. The motor mounting unit is provided on an outer surface of a wave guide, and includes a seat, a mounting piece provided at an edge of the seat and having a hole, and a stopper. The stopper is upwardly projected from a first piece provided on the seat adjacent to the mounting piece, to delimit a mounted position of the motor. The motor mounting unit also includes a guide piece upwardly projected from a second piece provided at an edge of the seat. A slot is longitudinally formed along the guide piece. The motor has a second flange at a position opposite to the first flange to be fitted into and guided along the slot.
