- the present embodiment it is not necessary to provide the same number of high-frequency power generation units as the surface wave transmission lines by sharing one high-frequency power generation unit among a plurality of surface wave transmission lines. For this reason, it is possible to reduce the size and cost of the apparatus.
- the high-frequency heating device 400 includes three surface wave transmission lines, two high-frequency power generation units, and one distribution unit.
- the number of surface wave transmission lines, high frequency power generation units, and distribution units is not limited to this.
- the high-frequency heating device according to the present disclosure is applicable to cooking appliances and the like.
