ABSTRACT:
A microwave oven is disclosed, in which the edges of the opening between the cooking chamber and electrical component compartment are bent, thereby strengthening the side panel on which the opening is formed and also forming half of a joining means which connects a cover plate to the opening. The cover plate includes hooked catches(the other half of the joining means) and flexible sealing members that lie flush against the side panel when the cover plate is installed. The elasticity of these sealing members allows them to maintain a tight seal even if the shape of the side panel becomes distorted during the assembly of the microwave.
