Abstract
A door lock apparatus of an electric cooker has a handle movably supported by a door which is mounted on a housing of the cooker and capable of moving to open/close an opening. Two hooks are pivotally mounted on the inner face of the door. Each hook is disposed engageable with the housing for locking the door in a closed position, thereby closing the opening and a switch for controlling an oscillation of a magnetron. The hooks are biased by biasing member to a position at which the hooks engage with the housing. Pushers are supported by the door to be movable along the axis thereof, respectively. Each pusher has two ends and abuts against the handle at one end and against the hook at the other end. When the handle is moved, each pusher pivots the hook to release engagement between the hook and the housing. Each hook has an arcuated action surface which abuts against the other end of the pusher. The biasing force of the biasing member is transmitted to the pusher through the action surface along the axis of the pusher.
