Abstract
A composite structure for a microwave oven housing having a main frame defined by top, rear and bottom surfaces and being open along the front thereof is disclosed. A partition wall is disposed in the main frame intermediate the side edges thereof for providing and separating a cooking chamber and a control compartment. A rectangular door frame is connected to front edge portions of the top and bottom surfaces of the main frame in front of the chamber for connecting an oven door thereto, the door frame defining an opening for access to the chamber. An additional feature includes a mode stirrer housing and a waveguide mounted on the top surface of the main frame above the chamber and compartment with the top surface defining openings which communicate between the compartment and waveguide and between the mode stirrer housing and chamber for transmitting a microwave signal generated in the compartment through the waveguide to the housing, and from the housing into the chamber.
