Abstract

A microwave oven includes an oven muffle, a high-frequency oscillator for generating microwaves propagating within the oven muffle, an opening within the muffle wall of the oven muffle for passing a rotatable shaft of a motor through the muffle wall, and an element for suppressing microwave leakage through the opening. The element for suppressing microwave leakage is arranged at a distance to the muffle wall by a motor mounting element bearing the motor, such that there is no direct physical contact between the muffle wall and the suppression element.
