Benefits of technology

[0036]According to the present invention with the above-stated construction, the etched grooves are formed at the inner wall of the cooking chamber or the cooking member through the plasma etching process, and the etched grooves are filled with a coating material exhibiting water repellency. Consequently, the present invention has the effect of providing a cooking apparatus having simultaneously improved abrasion resistance, heat resistance, and cleanability.
[0037]Also, it is not necessary to heat the interior of the cooking chamber to high temperature so as to remove/clean contaminants and/or residue, if the cooking apparatus having the cooking chamber is a gas oven or a microwave oven. Consequently, it is possible to reduce the thickness of an insulation member for insulati

Problems solved by technology

First, the conventional cooking apparatus has a problem in that the surface of the cooking apparatus, exposed to the food, does not simultaneously satisfy heat resistance, durability, and cleanability. In the conventional cooking apparatus, enamel is generally used for improving abrasion resistance and heat resistance at the region exposed to the food. However, the food easily sticks to the cooking chamber when the enamel is used to construct the cooking chamber.
However, Teflon does not satisfy the heat resistance and the abrasion resistance.
Second, when contaminants, such as oil, generated during the cooking of the food, sticks to the inner wall of the cooking chamber, the heating unit is operated at a high temperatu

Example

[0049]Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.

[0050]Hereinafter, an embodiment of a cooking apparatus according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 1.

[0051]The cooking apparatus includes an apparatus body 10, a cooking chamber 50 defining a space for cooking food, a door 20 for opening and closing the cooking chamber 50, a control unit (not shown) for controlling the apparatus body 10, and a heating unit for heating the food.

[0052]The apparatus body 10 is provided at the upper front thereof with a control panel 2 for controlling the cooking apparatus. The control panel 2 is connected to the control unit, mounted in the apparatus body 10. Alternatively, the control panel 2 may be provided separately from the apparatus body 10 such that the control unit can be remotely controlled.

[0053]In the apparatus body 10 is also mounted a transfo
