The first gear (110) also has means (113) for limiting the rotation range and means (111) for guiding the rotation.

Description: The present invention relates to an operational switch for a microwave oven. An electric field room of a microwave oven has a magnetron for generating high frequencies and an electric heater. The high frequency which is generated by high voltage is generated by the mutual induction of a first and a second induction coil disposed on the lower surface of the electric field room is safely applied to the magnetron. Such a high frequency is irradiated into a cooking chamber of a microwave oven through an irradiating tube. When the high frequency is irradiated to the inside of the cooking chamber through the irradiating tube, food placed in the cooking chamber is heated and cooked. In such a microwave oven, the operating time and the strength of the power should be adjusted in dependence upon the type of food being cooked. Accordingly, a microwave oven generally has a timer for controlling the time period during which the microwaves are generated, and a power control device for controlling the on/off operation period of the magnetron. That is, adjusting the period of on/off operation of the magnetron controls the power of the microwave oven. Such a timer and a power controlling device are installed at the rear portion of a control panel. The control panel for controlling the overall operation of the microwave oven is provided at one side of a front panel of the microwave oven. Inside the cooking chamber of a microwave oven, an electric heater may be provided for heating food thereby, for example, fish, bread or biscuits to be grilled or baked. The electric heater may be operated, for example, by a cam installed within the power controlling device. Around a control knob for the power control device, various positions, such as "BROWNER", "DEFROST", "COMBI", "MEDIUM-HIGH" and "HIGH" for controlling the power may be provided. When the "BROWNER" position is selected, it is required that only the electric heater operates so that the food can be grilled or baked. The "DEFROST" position requires the magnetron to operate with weak or lower power to defrost frozen foods. The "COMBI" position is selected when it is required to operate both the electric heater and the magnetron with a medium power so that a roast chicken or a roast turkey may be cooked. The "MEDIUM-HIGH" position requires the electric heater to be turned off and the magnetron to be operated with medium power. The "HIGH" position requires the magnetron to be operated with maximum power and with the electric heater turned off. A microwave oven having such a variety of functions is disclosed in US-A-5,455,403 which has a timer and a power control device installed at the rear portion of a control panel by the use of a separate bracket for the timer. The microwave oven described above requires many interengaged components in order to operate the magnetron and the electric heater. As the number of the components is increased the manufacturing cost becomes high. Further, the structure is complex and so the manufacture and assembling thereof is difficult. EP-A-0,679,045 with priority date of 21.04.94, published on 25.10.95 describes a control for a microwave oven having a function setting knob arranged to selectively operate both a magnetron switch and a heater switch. Operation of these switches is by way of respective cams, and a further cam arrangement sets the position of a shaft of the function setting knob. It is an object of the present invention to provide for a simplified control for a microwave oven. According to a first aspect of the present invention there is provided an operational switch for a microwave oven comprising first and second switches for controlling the connection of an electric heater, and of a magnetron to a power supply, and a power controlling knob selectively positionable in a plurality of positions to cause operation of said first and second switches individually or in combination, said operational switch further comprising a first gear engaged with a shaft of said power controlling knob and being arranged to selectively operate said first switch, a second gear coupled to said first gear and being arranged to selectively operate said second switch, and a power control gear arranged to control the power level of the magnetron, the power control gear being coupled to said second gear such that rotation of said power controlling knob causes rotation of the first and second gears and of said power control gear. Preferably, said first gear carries a pair of pushing pieces for operating said first switch, and said second gear carries a pair of pushing pieces for operating said second switch, and wherein said power control gear is coupled to said second gear by way of a small sized gear. Preferably, the first gear further comprises means for limiting the range of the rotation for the first gear to rotate within a predetermined angle. The rotation range limiting means may comprise a stopper protrudingly formed on one side of the first gear and a pair of impeding pieces protrudingly formed on a control panel supporting the knob shaft and arranged thereby to conflict with the stopper. In an embodiment, the first gear further comprises means for guiding the rotation site of the first gear. The rotation guiding means may comprise a pair of elastic pieces protrudingly and opposingly formed on the control panel and a ring type guiding member with plural grooves receiving the elastic pieces provided on one side of the first gear. In an arrangement of an embodiment of the invention, when the shaft of the power controlling knob rotates, the first gear assembled with the knob shaft is caused to rotate. The rotation of the first gear is transmitted to the second gear and thereby rotates the power controlling gear of the timer. Upon rotation of the first gear, the pushing pieces of the first gear control the first switch. The first switch is connected in circuit with both the electric heater and the magnetron. Upon rotation of the second gear, the pushing pieces of the second gear turn the second switch on or off. The second switch is connected to the magnetron and, by way of the first switch, to the electric heater. Thus, rotation of the first and second gears determines the position of the first and second switches and hence selectively operates the heater and the magnetron. Embodiments of the present invention will hereinafter be described, by way of example, with reference to the accompanying drawings in which:- Figure 1 is a side sectional view of an operational switch installed in a substantially conventional microwave oven; Figure 2 is a perspective view in a separated state of an operational switch for a microwave oven according to an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 3 is a front view of the operational switch of Figure 2 when a power control knob is located at a position "BROWNER"; Figure 4 is a front view of the power control knob as shown in Figure 3; Figure 5 shows a circuit diagram for a microwave oven when the power control knob is in the position of Figure 3; Figure 6 is a front view of the operational switch of Figure 2 when the power control knob is placed in a position "DEFROST"; Figure 7 is a front view of the power control knob as shown in Figure 6; Figure 8 is a circuit diagram for a microwave oven when the knob is in the position of Figure 6; Figure 9 is a front view of the operational switch of Figure 2 when the power control knob is in the position "COMBI"; Figure 10 is a front view of the power control knob as shown in Figure 9; Figure 11 is a circuit diagram for a microwave oven when the control knob is in the position of Figure 9; Figure 12 is a front view of the operational switch showing the condition when the power control knob is in the position "MEDIUM-HIGH"; Figure 13 is a front view of the power control knob as shown in Figure 12; Figure 14 is a circuit diagram for a microwave oven when the power control knob is in the position of Figure 12; Figure 15 is a front view of the operational switch showing the condition when the power control knob is in the position "HIGH"; Figure 16 is a front view of the power control knob as shown in Figure 15; and Figure 17 is a circuit diagram for a microwave oven when the power control knob is in the position of Figure 15. Figure 1 shows a side sectional view of an operational switch provided in a substantially conventional microwave oven. As shown in Figure 1, a control panel 1 has a through hole 12 for a power control knob 10 and a through hole 22 for a timer control knob 20. A timer bracket 30 is disposed at the rear side of the control panel 1. At timer bracket 30, a power controlling device and a timer are fixed. The power controlling device comprises a power control knob 10, a shaft 14 rotatable by the knob 10, a supporting bracket 50, a cam 40, a rack 70 and a power controlling gear 60. Power controlling knob 10 is fitted to one end of the shaft 14, and the other end of the shaft 14 is fixed at a timer bracket 30 by means of the supporting bracket 50. Between shaft 14 and supporting bracket 50, the cam 40, which is inserted into shaft 14, is provided. The cam 40 operates the electric heater while rotating together with the shaft 14 and limits the range of the rotation of shaft 14. In case of the microwave oven without a heating device, cam 40 only functions to limit the range of the rotation. At the circumference of cam 40, teeth are formed which are then matched with the rack 70. At a part of rack 70, a power controlling gear 60 of a timer 80 is combined. Timer 80 includes a timer controlling knob 20, a rotable timer shaft 24, and power controlling gear 60. Timer controlling knob 20 is inserted onto one end of the timer shaft 24 and the other end of the timer shaft 24 is fixed inside timer 80. When the microwave oven constructed as such is operated, the user must manually operate power controlling knob 10 and time controlling knob 20. When the power controlling knob 10 is rotated to the position required by the user, the torque of output controlling knob 10 is transmitted to shaft 14. Thus, the shaft 14 is rotated through a predetermined angle to thereby rotate cam 40, and the rotation of the cam 40 operates the electric heater. As cam 40 makes a rotation movement, rack 70 meshed with cam 40 makes a rectilinear motion. The rectilinear motion of rack 70 is transmitted to power controlling gear 60 meshed with rack 70. Accordingly, the power controlling gear 60 is rotated depending upon the rotational position of the power controlling gear 60, the on time and off time of the magnetron within one operating period of the magnetron may be relatively prolonged or shortened. If the timer controlling knob 20 is rotated to a desired extent by a user, the torque of timer controlling knob 20 is transmitted to the timer shaft 24. The rotated angle of timer shaft 24 is transmitted into timer 80 and thereby the magnetron and the electric heater operates for a predetermined period. Thereafter, time 80 terminates the operation of the magnetron and the electric heater. It will be appreciated that the operational switch is composed of the supporting bracket 50, a plate spring (not shown), the cam 40, the rack 70, and the other components in order to operate the magnetron and the electric heater. The complicated structure of the rack 70 means that its manufacturing and assembling is difficult. Figure 2 is a perspective view showing the separated state of an operational switch of a microwave oven embodiment of the invention. A control panel 100 is disposed at one side portion of the front side of a microwave oven. On the front side of control panel 100, a power controlling knob (not shown) and a timer knob (not shown) are installed and on the rear side thereof gears 110 and 120, switches 130 and 140 and a timer (not shown) are provided. At an upper portion of control panel 100, a projecting portion 101 in the form of a circle projects towards the back direction of the control panel 101. At the centre of the projecting portion 101 a knob shaft through hole 106 is formed. A knob shaft 109 of the power controlling knob is rotatably inserted into the knob shaft through hole 106. Around the periphery of the knob shaft through hole 106, a boss 102 with a predetermined length is protrudingly formed toward the back direction of control panel 100. On the circumferential surface of boss 102 a pair of impeding pieces 105A and 105B are protrudingly formed with a predetermined length in an upper and a lower direction respectively. A pair of elastic pieces 103A and 103B are protrudingly formed at opposite sites on projecting portion 101 with a predetermined distance from the centre of projecting portion 101. Elastic pieces 103A and 103B can be elastically bent in a right and in a left direction respectively with a fixing end in the centre. An engaging jaw 104 is formed on an opposite surface of the elastic piece. At an edge of projecting portion 101, a first switch 130 for operating a heater 153 is fixed. First switch 130 has a contact protuberance 132 formed to be pushed in a radial direction of projecting portion 101. At a portion separated from projecting portion 101 toward the site of the timer knob with a predetermined distance, a second gear boss 144 for fixing the rotating centre of a second gear 120 is protrudingly formed on the rear side of control panel 100. Second gear boss 144 is formed in the shape of a cylinder and has a second switch 140 fixed at an edge thereof. Second switch 140 is situated at a site separated from second gear boss 144 in a radial direction with a predetermined distance and performs an on/off operation of a magnetron 155. At a lower portion of control panel 100, another boss 164 is formed. Boss 164 receives a timer knob shaft 162 from the front side of control panel 100 and is rotatable. First gear 110 is inserted onto power controlling knob shaft 109. On the circumference of the first gear 110, teeth are formed and the through hole of first gear 110 is formed suitable to be assembled with power controlling knob 109. On one of the surfaces of first gear 110 which is to meet with projecting portion 101, a guiding member 111, a pushing piece 114 and a stopper 113 are protrudingly formed. Guilding member 111 is made in the shape of a ring and has a plurality of grooves 112 formed along the circumference with the same gap. Groove 112 can receive engaging jaw 104 of the elastic piece 103 by elasticity. A pair of pushing pieces 114 on guiding member 111 are formed integrally with guiding member 111 toward projecting portion 101. A pair of pushing pieces 114 are separated from each other with a predetermined distance on guiding member 111 and each of pushing pieces 114 has slanting parts at both ends thereof for convenient approach to and separation from contact protuberance 132 of first switch 130. Stopper 113 is protrudingly formed at a site that first gear 110 interferes with a pair of impeding pieces 105A and 105B during the rotation of first gear 110. Second gear 120 is inserted into second gear boss 144 while meshing together with first gear 110. On the surface of second gear 120 toward control panel 100, a pair of pushing pieces 124 and a gap maintaining portion 122 are formed and on the other surface a small size gear 170 meshing together with power controlling gear 172 of the timer is integrally formed. A pair of pushing pieces 124 are opposingly situated at the site capable of contacting a contact protuberance 142 of second switch 140 with gap maintaining portion 122 of second gear 120 in the centre. Each of the pushing pieces has slanting parts at both ends thereof for a convenient approach to and separation from contact protuberance 142. Figures 4, 7, 10, 13 and 16 illustrate front views of a power controlling knob 160 installed on the front side of control panel 100 respectively. Around power controlling knob 160, five power controlling positions labelled BROWNER, DEFROST, COMBI, MEDIUM-HIGH and HIGH are provided. Accordingly, a user can select the desired power position by manually rotating the power controlling knob 160. Figures 5, 8, 11, 14 and 17 illustrate power circuit diagrams of a microwave oven of the invention. An electric heater 153 for generating heat and a magnetron 155 for producing high frequency are connected in parallel with a source 151 of alternating power. A second switch 140 is situated between the power source 151 and the magnetron 155. A branch terminal between the second switch 140 and the power source 151 is used as a common terminal (COM). One end of a first switch 130 is a common terminal and the other end thereof contacts a normally closed terminal (NC) or a normally open terminal (NO) in the alternative. The normally open terminal (NO) is connected to a heater 153 and the normally closed terminal (NC) is connected to the magnetron 155. An oven thermistor 157 is connected between the power source 151 and the first switch 130 in order to prevent overheating of the microwave oven. In addition, a timer is connected in series between the power source 151 and the second switch 140 but that is not shown in the drawings. The timer operates the heater 153 or the magnetron 155 only for the time period set by the user and after the time period set by the user, the heater 153 and the magnetron 155 are disconnected from the power source 151. In a microwave oven of the invention the operational switch operates as below. Figure 3 illustrates a front view of the operational switch when power controlling knob 160 is situated in the position "BROWNER". Figure 4 illustrates a front view of the power controlling knob 160 according to Figure 3. Figure 5 illustrates the power circuit diagram of the microwave oven for the position of Figure 3. When the power controlling knob 160 is located at the position "BROWNER" as shown in Figure 4, the pair of elastic pieces 103A and 103B are engaged in a groove 112 of the guiding member 111 as shown in Figure. 3. Stopper 113 prohibits first gear 110 from rotating in a clockwise direction by contacting an impeding piece 105A. Pushing piece 114 puts pressure upon contact protuberance 132 of first switch 130. At this time, pushing piece 124 of second gear 120 does not press against contact protuberance 142 of second switch 140. Figure 5 illustrates the power circuit of the microwave oven when the power controlling knob 160 is situated at the step of "BROWNER". Since the contact protuberance 132 of the first switch 130 is pressed, the common terminal (COM) is connected to the normally open terminal (NO). Contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140 is not pressed, and therefore the second switch 140 is open. Accordingly, only the heater 153 is connected to the power source 151. The magnetron 155 is not connected to the power source 151. Thus, only the heater 153 operates for the time period set by the timer. In this manner, the grill function of the microwave oven is accomplished. Figure 6 illustrates a front view of the operational switch when the power controlling knob 160 is situated at the position, "DEFROST". Figure 7 illustrates a front view of the power controlling knob 160 according to Figure 6. Figure 8 illustrates the diagram of the power circuit of a microwave oven for the position of Figure 6. When the power controlling knob 160 is located at the position "DEFROST" as shown in Figure 7, the pair of elastic pieces 103A and 103B are engaged in a groove 112 of the guilding member 111 as shown in Figure 6. Stopper 113 enables the first gear 110 to rotate in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction by departing from impeding piece 105A. Since pushing piece 114 has rotated in a counterclockwise direction as compared to the "BROWNER" condition, the pushing piece does not press contact protuberance 132 of first switch 130. At this time, the second gear 120 rotates in a clockwise direction. The angle through which the second gear 120 has rotated in a clockwise direction is transmitted to power controlling gear 172 of the timer through a small-sized gear 170 integrally formed with the second gear 120. Then the power controlling gear 172 causes the power of magnetron 155 to become a "weak" condition. At this time, pushing piece 124 of second gear 120 does not press contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140. Figure 8 is a diagram of the power circuit of the microwave oven when the power controlling knob 160 is situated in the position "DEFROST". Since the contact protuberance 132 of first switch 130 is not pressed, the common terminal COM is connected to the normally closed terminal. Also the contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140 is not pressed, and therefore the second switch 140 is open. Accordingly, only the magnetron 155 is connected to the power source 151. The heater 153 is not connected to the power source 151. Thus, only the magnetron 155 is powered for the time period which have been set by the timer. In this manner, microwaves are generated, but at low power, so that the defrosting function of a microwave oven is accomplished. Figure 9 illustrates a front view of the operational switch when the power controlling knob 160 is situated at the position "COMBI". Figure 10 illustrates a front view of the power controlling knob 160 according to Figure 9. Figure 11 is a diagram of the power circuit of a microwave oven with the knob in the position of Figure 9. When the power controlling knob 160 is located at the position "COMBI" as shown in Figure 10, the pair of elastic pieces 103A and 103AB are engaged in a groove 112 of the guiding member 111 as shown in Figure 9. Stopper 113 enables the first gear 110 to rotate in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction by further departing from impeding piece 105A. Since the pushing piece 114 has rotated in a counterclockwise direction as compared to the "DEFROST" position, the pushing piece presses the contact protuberance 132 of the first switch 130. At this time, the second gear 120 rotates in a clockwise direction. The angle through which the second gear 120 has rotated in a clockwise direction is transmitted to the power controlling gear 172 of the timer through the small-sized gear 170 integrally formed with the second gear 120. Thus the power controlling gear 172 causes the power of magnetron 155 to become a "medium" condition. At this time, the pushing piece 124 of second gear 120 presses contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140. Figure 11 is a diagram of the power circuit of the microwave oven when the power controlling knob 160 is situated in the position "COMBI". Since the contact protuberance 132 of the first switch 130 is under pressure, the common terminal COM is connected to the normally open terminal (NO). Also the contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140 is pressed, such that the second switch 140 is closed. Accordingly, both the magnetron 155 and the heater 153 are connected to the power source 151. That is, the magnetron 155 operates according to the power and the time period which have been set by the timer, and the heater 153 operates for the time period set by the timer. In this way, the "COMBI" function of the microwave oven, that is, a combination of both the grill function and the application of microwave power, is achieved. Figure 12 illustrates a front view of the operational switch when the power controlling knob 160 as shown in Figure 2 is situated at the location "MEDIUM-HIGH". Figure 13 illustrates a front view of the power controlling knob 160 according to Figure 12. Figure 14 is a diagram of the power circuit of the microwave oven with the knob 160 in the position of Figure 12. When the power controlling knob 160 is located at the position "MEDIUM-HIGH" as shown in Figure 13, the pair of elastic pieces 103A and 103B are engaged in a groove 112 of the guiding member 111 as shown in FIG. 12. Stopper 113 enables the first gear 110 to rotate in a clockwise or counterclockwise direction by further departing from impeding piece 105A. Since pushing piece 114 has rotated in a counterclockwise direction as compared to the "COMBI" condition, pushing piece 114 presses the contact protuberance 132 of the first switch 130. At this time, the second gear 120 rotates in a clockwise direction. The angle through which second gear 120 has rotated in a clockwise direction is transmitted to power controlling gear 172 of the timer through the small-sized gear 170 integrally formed with the second gear 120. Then power controlling gear 172 makes the power of the magnetron 155 to be the "medium" condition. At this time, pushing piece 124 of second gear 120 does not press contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140. Figure 14 is a diagram of the power circuit of the microwave oven when the power controlling knob 160 is situated at the position "MEDIUM-HIGH". Since the contact protuberance 132 of the first switch 130 is pressed, the common terminal is connected to the normally closed terminal. Also, the contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140 is not pressed so that the second switch 140 is open. Accordingly, the magnetron 155 is connected with the power source 151, but the heater 153 is not connected to the power source 151. That is, only the magnetron 155 operates according to the power and the time period which have been set by the timer. The heater 153 does not operate. In this manner, the microwave oven function is accomplished, at medium power. Figure 15 illustrates a top view of the operational switch when the power controlling knob 160 is positioned at "HIGH". Figure 16 illustrates a front view of the power controlling knob 160 according to Figure 15. Figure 17 is a diagram of the power circuit of the microwave oven when the knob 160 is in the position of Figure 15. When the power controlling knob 160 is located at "HIGH" as shown in Figure 16, the pair of elastic pieces 103A and 103B are engaged in a groove 112 of the guiding member 111 as shown in Figure 15. Stopper 113 which is in contact with impeding piece 105B prohibits the first gear 110 from rotating in a counterclockwise direction. Since the pushing piece 114 has rotated in a counterclockwise direction as compared to the "MEDIUM-HIGH" position, the pushing piece 114 does not press contact protuberance 132 of the first switch 130. At this time, the second gear 120 rotates in a clockwise direction. The angle through which the second gear 120 has rotated in a clockwise direction is transmitted to the power controlling gear 172 of the timer through the small-sized gear 170 integrally formed with the second gear 120. The power controlling gear 172 thereby causes the power of the magnetron 155 to become a "strong" condition. At this time, the pushing piece 124 of the second gear 120 does not press the contact protuberance 142 of the second switch 140. Figure 17 is a diagram of the power circuit of the microwave oven when the power controlling knob 160 is situated at "HIGH". Since the contact protuberance 132 of the first switch 130 is not pressed, the common terminal is connected to the normally closed terminal. Also, the contact protuberance 142 of second switch 140 is not pressed, therefore the second switch 140 is open. Accordingly, the magnetron 155 is connected to the power source 151 but, the heater 153 is not connected to the power source 151. Thus, only the magnetron 155 operates according to the power and the time period which have been set by the timer. The heater 153 does not operate. In this way, the function of the microwave oven is performed. According to the operational switch of a microwave oven of the present invention, a pair of gears and a pair of micro switches are used in order for a magnetron and an electric heater to operate. Therefore, the number of components of the operational switch for a microwave oven is reduced and thereby poor quality components are avoided from being produced, the assembling time thereof is shortened and the productivity thereof is improved. It will be apparent that various other modifications can be made to the invention as described above without departing from the scope of the appended claims.
