A dish cover for use in a microwave oven has first and second generally semicircular portions which may be fastened to the rim of a dish by latch means and secured to the dish by insertion of the rim between an annular flange and lip extending inwardly from the sidewall of the cover. The flange extends into the space over the dish to serve as a pathway for the return of condensate to the dish during cooking. The cover has handles which may also operate to secure the two halves together. The handles allow for removal of a covered dish from the oven using unprotected hands.

Why it's free to use
- Filed February 11, 1994. No grant is recorded for it in Canada; had it been granted, its 20-year term would have ended February 11, 2014.
- A certificate of supplementary protection adds at most two years for a drug, so even that would have ended by February 11, 2016.
- We check Canadian rights only. A patent in its family in another country could still be in force: check its family on Google Patents.
