Abstract

Abstract Cooling device of a magnetron for a microwave oven, which includes a plurality of radiation fins disposed between an outer periphery of an anode cylinder and an inner surface of a yoke serving as a frame for radiating heat of a high temperature produced during osicillating operation of the magnetron for generating an electromagnetic wave. The temperature of the fins disposed centrally in substantially the same as the temperature of the fins disposed at both ends of the anode cylinder. This is accomplished by, the fins disposed centrally on the outer peripherey being arranged at a diffeent distance from the distance between the fins disposed on both ends of the anode cylinder or by the fins disposed centrally being made of different materials from the materials of the end.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 131 words
A cooling device of a magnetron for radiating heat of a high temperature generated by thermions in the magnetron, the device comprising: an anode cylinder having radially extending vanes mounted on its inner periphery; a plurality of radiation fins disposed in parallel, axially spaced-apart relation to each other on the outer periphery of said anode cylinder, wherein the plurality of said radiation fins are arranged such that the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery have a distance therebetween less than the distance between the fins disposed on both ends of said outer periphery, and such distances are such that the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery have substantially the same temperature as the temperature of the fins disposed on both ends of the outer periphery of said anode cylinder.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 131 words
A cooling device of a magnetron for radiating heat of a high temperature generated by thermions in the magnetron, the device comprising: an anode cylinder having radially extending vanes mounted on its inner periphery; a plurality of radiation fins disposed in parallel, axially spaced-apart relation to each other on the outer periphery of said anode cylinder, wherein the plurality of said radiation fins are arranged such that the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery have a distance therebetween less than the distance between the fins disposed on both ends of said outer periphery, and such distances are such that the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery have substantially the same temperature as the temperature of the fins disposed on both ends of the outer periphery of said anode cylinder.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 37 words
A cooling device of a magnetron as claimed in claim 1, wherein said distance between said fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery is 60˜80% of said distance between said fins disposed on said both end sides.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 124 words
A cooling device of a magnetron for radiating heat of a high temperature generated by thermions in the magnetron, the device comprising: an anode cylinder having radially extending vanes mounted on its inner periphery; and a plurality of radiation fins disposed in parallel, axially spaced-apart relation to each other on the outer periphery of said anode cylinder, wherein the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery are made of materials having different thermal conductivity from the thermal conductivity of the materials of the fins disposed on both ends of the side of said anode cylinder and wherein the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery are made of copper and the fins disposed on said both ends of the side are made of aluminum.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 124 words
A cooling device of a magnetron for radiating heat of a high temperature generated by thermions in the magnetron, the device comprising: an anode cylinder having radially extending vanes mounted on its inner periphery; and a plurality of radiation fins disposed in parallel, axially spaced-apart relation to each other on the outer periphery of said anode cylinder, wherein the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery are made of materials having different thermal conductivity from the thermal conductivity of the materials of the fins disposed on both ends of the side of said anode cylinder and wherein the fins disposed centrally on said outer periphery are made of copper and the fins disposed on said both ends of the side are made of aluminum.
