A heating apparatus of the present invention relates to a high speed oven having a turntable mechanism for heating food products by utilizing a combination of jet impingement of heated air (a jet impingement) and microwaves or either of them, the apparatus comprising a safety device and an exhaust device. This invention has the following configurations: a turntable mechanism for enabling the turntable to be preferably rotated, the turntable including openings at the central part thereof so that the heated air and microwaves can pass therethrough; a limiter mechanism for removing overload imposed on the turntable by utilizing only a mechanical operation; an apparatus provided with scarfed areas on upper and lower boards of the heating chamber so that the food products can be baked uniformly even when utilizing a jet impingement technique; a fan guard comprising a switch activation device for activating a switch for allowing a generation of the heated air, which switch is positioned at the outside of the heating chamber, only when the fan guard is fixed to the heating chamber; a heating apparatus which simplifies operations for connecting exhaust tubes upon a number of apparatuses being stacked on each other; and a turntable driving mechanism for preventing contaminants from flowing into a gap between a connecting shaft and an axis receptor.

[ What is claimed is:] [1.]1. A turntable heating apparatus, using a jet impingement operation, comprising:generating means for generating heated air, said generating means being positioned in a rear side of a heating chamber;wall surfaces of the heating chamber, said wall surfaces also being used as a part of an air supply path for guiding the heated air from said generating means to a front side of the heating chamber;a jet plate for changing the heated air into a jet of the heated air by utilizing a plurality of jet ejectors;a support axle positioned inside said wall surfaces of the heating chamber;a turntable, supported by said support axle inside said wall surfaces of the heating chamber, so that the turntable is rotated around said support axle;a driving source, positioned at an upper side of the heating chamber, for generating a rotating torque; anda driving means for transmitting the rotating torque generated by said driving source to said turntable;at least said support axle, said turntable, said driving means, and said jet plate being removable from the heating chamber;wherein at least one part of a top surface and one part of a bottom surface of said wall surfaces of the heating chamber are each provided with a scarfed area of which a cross section becomes more tapered in a direction from the rear side to the front side of said heating chamber, so that said heated air can be guided along each said scarfed area and cleaning water can be stored in a recess formed by said scarfed area of the bottom surface; andwherein cleaning of the inside of the heating apparatus is improved by enabling said support axle, said turntable, said driving means, and said jet plate to be removed from the heating chamber and the cleaning water stored in said recess to be changeable into vapor by said generating means.
