A first edge ring is removed from a substrate support within a process module using a transfer robot. The transfer robot is then used to place a second edge ring on the substrate support. An image sensor (e.g., a disk-shaped wireless image sensor) is positioned over the second edge ring using the transfer robot. The image sensor generates image information, which is analyzed to determine alignment of the second edge ring.

A microwave cooker comprises a body having a cooking chamber therein, the cooking chamber having one opened side, a microwave source disposed at the body for supplying microwave to the cooking chamber, a door coupled to the body for opening and closing the cooking chamber, and a multi-stage choke seal formed at the door and having different resonant frequencies and different LC resonant circuits for preventing the microwave from being leaked between the body and the door.

A defrost vessel for a microwave oven includes a body having a certain space therein for receiving a refrigerating load, and an antenna connected to the body for oscillating a microwave into the space of the body. When microwave is supplied into a cavity of the microwave oven, the microwave is oscillated into the space of the body by the antenna and thus the microwave is deeply penetrated up to inside of the refrigerating load. Also, the microwave is secondly emitted into the space of the body from an edge of the slot, thereby completely defrosting the refrigerating load.

A microwave cooker includes a body having a cooking chamber therein, a microwave source disposed at the body for generating a microwave, a wave guide for guiding the microwave generated from the microwave source into the cooking chamber, a rotation antenna installed in the body to be rotatable by a driving motor for emitting the microwave guided by the wave guide into the cooking chamber, and a movable stirrer coupled to the rotation antenna so as to be interworked with the rotation antenna.

A microwave oven has a casing which forms an appearance and has a front surface backwardly slanted and an adjusting portion formed at the slanted part; a cooking chamber formed inside the casing, for cooking food; and a door rotatably combined, i.e., hinged, at a side of the casing and slanted correspondingly the casing in order to opening and close the front surface of the cooking chamber.

Microwave oven

A door assembly for a microwave or electric oven in which an optimum microwave-shielding frequency is not changed even though an incident angle of microwaves is changed, to enhance a user's convenience in cleaning a door. The door assembly for a microwave oven includes a door frame to open and close a cooking cavity, a door filter having a filter plate adhered to one side of the door frame, a choke portion bent to an opposite side of the cooking cavity in an edge of the filter plate, a first slot formed in a width direction of the choke portion, and a second slot formed in a length direction of the choke portion.
