Description

Cooking apparatus Technical Field The present utility model relates to a cooking apparatus, and more particularly, to a cooking apparatus provided at an upper side of a heating cooking device. Background The statements in this section merely provide background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art. The cooking apparatus is a home appliance for cooking food using microwaves and/or heater heat, etc., which are one type of electromagnetic waves. In general, a cooking apparatus may be provided with a cavity as a space for placing and cooking food and a door for opening and closing the cavity. In the case of setting the cooking apparatus indoors, effective use of the cooking apparatus, saving of setting space, and the like need to be considered. For this reason, the cooking apparatus may be disposed in a position adjacent to a heating cooking device such as a heating oven, a gas range, or the like. Specifically, the cooking apparatus may be disposed at an upper side of the heating cooking device. If the cooking apparatus is disposed at the upper side of the heating cooking device, a user can reduce movement in an environment where the cooking apparatus and the heating cooking device are adjacent, so that food can be conveniently cooked. In addition, the cooking device may be used as an exhaust hood (hood), and hot air, oil vapor, or the like generated from the heating cooking device may be discharged to the outside. For example, in order to provide various information to a user, a display part may be installed at a front surface of a door provided to the cooking apparatus. The user can confirm the cooking state of the cooked food using the display part. In addition, when the display unit is connected to other home appliances and functions as a hinge of the home appliances, other information can be obtained by the display unit in addition to the cooking information of the food.
