ABSTRACT:
A door locking device for a microwave oven of the present invention has an engaging member arranged inwardly of the cooking chamber of the housing. An arm is arranged at the rear surface side of a door and is biased clockwise by a spring, such that its horizontal state is kept by a stopper and the arm may be pivoted counterclockwise. A locking eccentric cam having a notched engaging portion is mounted at the distal end of the arm so as to be pivotal about a shaft. As the door is opened/closed, the notched engaging portion of the locking eccentric cam is engaged with the engaging member at the side of the housing to eccentrically pivot the locking eccentric cam, thereby locking/unlocking the door.
