A steam cooking apparatus with improved water supply and drainage structures. The apparatus includes a body, a cooking compartment, a steam generator to supply steam into the cooking compartment, a water vessel to store water and supply the water into the steam generator, a water supply device including a holder and a slider slidably mounted in the holder so as to be withdrawn from the body, a first water supply tube connecting the slider and the water vessel, a second water supply tube connecting the water vessel and the steam generator, and a drain tube to drain water in the steam generator to the outside of the body. The drain tube includes an end fixed to the slider so that the end of the drain tube is withdrawn with the slider from the body when water in the steam generator is drained to the outside.

Steam cooking apparatus

A steam cooking apparatus includes a steam generating unit to generate steam from a supply of water, a steam container to cook food using the steam from the steam generating unit, a steam supply pipe coupled to the steam generating unit in order to supply the steam container with the steam generated by the steam generating unit, a steam pipe coupled to the steam container in order to supply the steam container with the steam passing through the steam supply pipe, and a steam pipe connection tube including a first connection portion coupled with the steam supply pipe and a second connection portion coupled with the steam pipe, the second connection portion coupled with the steam pipe being formed to have a diameter which is expanded toward the steam pipe so as to guide the steam pipe.

An over having an improved exhaust structure capable of discharging a fluid of the inside of a cooking chamber at a constant rate, the oven including a cooking chamber cooking food, a machine chamber disposed at an upper side of the cooking chamber and accommodating an electronic component, a cooling fan unit disposed at an inside of the machine chamber to cool the machine chamber, and a flow passage guide communicating with an inside the cooking chamber and an inside of the cooling fan unit such that a fluid of the inside of the cooking chamber is introduced to the inside of the cooling fan unit, wherein the cooling fan unit includes a cooling fan configured to suck a fluid of the inside the machine chamber and blow the fluid to the outside environment.

Oven

An apparatus and method for controlling a microwave oven using a bar code. The apparatus includes an operating panel provided on the front surface of the microwave oven, a bar code scanner installed in the operating panel and projecting light to the bar code attached to a package of food to obtain data of the bar code, and a main controller for controlling a cooking operation for cooking the food according to the data of the bar code obtained by the bar code scanner. The apparatus simply and rapidly performs the cooking of food using the bar code, increases the bar code recognition distance thereof, and is easily and economically operated.

Apparatus and method for controlling microwave oven using bar code

An oven that is capable of minimizing heat transfer between adjacent cooking spaces along the wall of a cooking chamber. The oven includes an oven body having a cooking chamber, a partition to partition the cooking chamber into a plurality of cooking spaces, and insulating grooves formed at a wall of the cooking chamber to minimize heat transfer between the cooking spaces.
