Because many exothermic electric and electronic components are mounted on this control board 49, this control board 49 needs cooling. Thus, as described with reference to FIG. 6, cool air is sucked from the back of the microwave oven case 20 (FIG. 1) and is led to the air passage 207 from the opening 206a provided in the back plate 206. Then, the cool air passes through the opening 48a (FIG. 2) of the intake surface 48 of the kangaroo pocket control portion 401 and then cools the control board 49 (FIG. 3). Thereafter, the air passes through the opening 46a of the exhaust surface 46 and is exhausted out of the case for the kangaroo pocket control portion 401. Then, the air flows through the gap A between the kangaroo control portion 401 and the control portion accommodating chamber 92 and is discharged to the front surface of the microwave oven case 20.
  • the operation portion is placed at the upper part of the oven, a user can operate the operation portion without squatting. Additionally, the kangaroo pocket control portion is employed. Thus, the control panel is not vertical and is inclined at a predetermined angle. Although similarly placed at the upper part, the operability of the operation portion of the embodiment is extremely enhanced, as compared with the operation portion shown in FIG. 18.
  • the kangaroo pocket control portion is not suitable for being placed at an upper part of the heating chamber. This is because the kangaroo pocket control portion requires a space enabling this control portion to rotate. In a development experiment phase, the need for this space is an obstacle. Water vapor enters the kangaroo pocket control portion from this space and adversely affects the control portion, for instance, fogs the liquid crystal display and heats and moistens the electric component.
  • the present applicant made experiments by providing a cushion in the space so as to prevent water vapor from entering the control portion.
  • This configuration additionally needs the cushion and man-hours required to mount the cushion. Consequently, the number of mounting-man-hours increases. This results in increase in the cost of the oven.
  • the aging of the cushion causes water vapor to enter the control portion. More importantly, the operability (the smoothness of rotation) of the kangaroo pocket control portion is deteriorated.
  • the present applicant found that the drawbacks could completely be solved by positively utilizing the space as a blowout opening for the air curtain. Such positive utilization of the space as the blowout opening for the air curtain eliminates the necessity for the cushion. Thus, the cost is reduced.
  • This space is a substitute for the original exhaust slot (designated by reference numeral 74 in FIG. 18). Thus, this exhaust slot is unnecessary, so that the space for this exhaust slot can be saved.
  • the kangaroo pocket control portion 401 is mounted in the upper front portion of the oven. Therefore, it is unnecessary for a user to squat down each time he operates operating buttons. Consequently, the operability of the control portion is improved. Also, air is exhausted from the space for rotating the kangaroo pocket control portion. Thus, there is no need for providing an additional exhaust opening. Consequently, a large internal space of the heating chamber can be ensured. Also, the air is exhausted at the upper front portion of the oven. Therefore, the dust is not blown up, so that the kitchen is kept clean.
