Disclosed is a combination hood microwave oven, by which a room environment is maintained more pleasant and fresh by proving a microwave oven with an air curtain generating unit for preventing polluted air, which includes hot, smelling, or humid air produced from an oven range on cooking, from diffusing into a room. The present invention includes a cabinet disposed over an oven range, a cooking room having a predetermined cavity within the cabinet for cooking using an electromagnetic wave generated from a magnetron, a hood unit installed within the cabinet to discharge polluted air produced from the oven range on cooking, and an air curtain generating unit installed at a bottom side of the cabinet to prevent the polluted air from diffusing into a room.

What is claimed is: 1. A combination hood microwave oven comprising: a cabinet disposed over an oven range; a cooking unit having a predetermined cavity within the cabinet for cooking using an electromagnetic wave generated from a magnetron; a hood unit installed within the cabinet to discharge polluted air produced from the oven range on cooking; and an air curtain generating unit installed at a front bottom side of the cabinet, the air curtain generating unit including: a fan housing formed at the front bottom side of the cabinet, the fan housing having an intake opening at the front bottom side of the cabinet and an outflow opening at the front bottom side of the cabinet; and a blowing fan disposed at the front bottom side of the cabinet in the fan housing, the blowing fan inhaling air through the intake opening and exhaling the air through the outflow opening to form an air curtain to prevent the polluted air from diffusing into a room. 2. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the air curtain generating unit further comprises: a drive motor for rotating the blowing fan. 3. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the blowing fan is a crossflow fan having a configuration that the air is inhaled and exhaled in a circumferential direction of the crossflow fan. 4. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the fan housing is formed at the front bottom side of the cabinet in a length direction, and the outflow opening inclines to a lower direction of the microwave oven to have a predetermined incline angle so that the air forming the air curtain is injected toward an upper front side of the oven range. 5. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the air curtain generating unit further comprises: a left air curtain generating unit installed at a left bottom side of the cabinet to form a left air curtain inclining to a left lower side of the cabinet; and a right air curtain generating unit installed at a right bottom side of the cabinet to form a right air curtain inclining to a right lower side of the cabinet. 6. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 5, wherein each of the right and left air curtain generating units, comprises: a blowing fan installed at the corresponding bottom side of the cabinet; a drive motor for driving the corresponding blowing fan; and a fan housing formed at the corresponding bottom side of the cabinet to hold the corresponding blowing fan therein and having an intake opening for inhaling air and an outflow opening for exhaling air to form the corresponding air curtain. 7. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the air curtain generating unit further comprises: a left air curtain generating unit installed at a left bottom side of the cabinet to form a left air curtain inclining to a left lower side of the cabinet. 8. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the air curtain generating unit further comprises: a right air curtain generating unit installed at a right bottom side of the cabinet to form a right air curtain inclining to a right lower side of the cabinet. 9. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the blowing fan is a crossflow fan, the air curtain generating unit comprising: a sliding plate provided to the bottom side of the cabinet, the sliding plate being slidable to in front of the cabinet to a predetermined displacement, the crossflow fan being installed at a front side of the sliding plate to form the air curtain; and a drive motor for rotating the crossflow fan. 10. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 9, wherein guide grooves are formed at the bottom side of the cabinet to have the sliding plate slide to move, the fan housing being at the front side of the sliding plate. 11. The combination hood microwave oven of claim 1, wherein the intake opening and the outflow opening being separated by a diaphragm.
