Abstract

The present invention relates to an induction cooker (1) comprising a cooktop (2) produced from a transparent material like glass, more than one induction coil (3) disposed under the cooktop (2) and enabling the cooking container placed thereon to be heated by creating a magnetic field, and an illumination element (4) that shows the operational state of the induction coil (3).

Description

    AN INDUCTION COOKER COMPRISING AN ILLUMINATION ELEMENT
  • The present invention relates to an induction cooker comprising an illumination element that shows the operational state of the induction cooker.
  • In induction cookers, illumination elements that show the operational state of the cooker are used. Low level electrical power is sufficient for energizing the illumination elements. This electrical power is supplied from the induction coil by means of a receiver coil. The receiver coil energizes the illumination element by partially receiving energy from the induction coil. In order for the receiver coil to receive the desired amount of energy from the induction coil, the receiver coil must be positioned oppositely (face to face) with the induction coil and near the induction coil. The power of the illumination element to illuminate the transparent cooktop depends on the light intensity and the distance between the cooktop and the illumination element. Furthermore, the light-proof induction cooker components disposed between the cooktop and the illumination element lower the effectiveness of the illumination element.
  • In the state of the art European Patent Application No. EP2600692, a light emitting unit is disclosed, that is disposed over the induction coil and connected to the receiver coil energized by means of the induction coil.
  • The induction cooker realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention, explicated in the first claim and the respective claims thereof, comprises a cooktop produced from a transparent material like glass, more than one induction coil that enables the cooking process to be performed by creating a magnetic field with the ferromagnetic based cooking containers, an illumination element that is energized depending on the operational state of the induction coil and a receiver coil that produces the required energy for the illumination element by creating a magnetic field with the induction coil. The illumination element that is supplied by the receiver coil integrated with the cooktop so as to be near the induction coil illuminates the cooktop by decreasing energy losses.
  • In an embodiment of the present invention, the receiver coil is printed on the cooktop, produced from glass material, by means of the serigraphy method. Thus, the production cost of the induction cooker is decreased.
  • In an embodiment of the present invention, the receiver coil that supplies the energy for operating the illumination element is printed on the cooktop in a planar spiral shape and has one or more than one winding that is wound with gaps therebetween.
  • In an embodiment of the present invention, the illumination element is a light emitting diode (LED).
  • The induction cooker realized in order to attain the aim of the present invention is illustrated in the attached figures, where:
  • Figure 1 – is the schematic view of an induction cooker.
  • Figure 2 – is the schematic view of a cooktop, a receiver coil and an illumination element.
  • The elements illustrated in the figures are numbered as follows:
    1. Induction cooker
    2. Cooktop
    3. Induction coil
    4. Illumination element
    5. Receiver coil
  • The induction cooker (1) comprises a cooktop (2) produced from a transparent material, more than one induction coil (3) disposed under the cooktop (2) and enabling the cooking container placed thereon to be heated by creating a magnetic field, an illumination element (4) that shows the operational state of the induction coil (3), and a receiver coil (5) that provides the required energy for the illumination element (4) by partially receiving the power generated by the induction coil (3). In order for the receiver coil (5) to receive the desired amount of energy from the induction coil (3), the receiver coil (5) is positioned oppositely (face to face) with the induction coil (3) and near the induction coil (3).
  • In the induction cooker (1) of the present invention, the receiver coil (5) is produced integrated with the cooktop (2). The illumination element (4) connected to the receiver coil (5) disposed on the cooktop (2) informs the user by illuminating the cooktop (2) during operation of the induction coil (3). The illumination element (4) is supplied through the receiver coil (5) that is energized magnetically by the induction coil (3). The light intensity that is reflected on the cooktop (2) is high since the illumination element (4) is produced integrated with the cooktop (2). By means of the illumination element (4) that emits light with high intensity, the user is warned perceptibly about the operational state of the induction coil (3).
  • In an embodiment of the present invention, the receiver coil (5) is printed on the cooktop (2) by means of the serigraphy method. Thus, the production of the receiver coil (5) is facilitated.
  • In an embodiment of the present invention, the receiver coil (5) is embedded into the cooktop (2). The receiver coil (5) is almost entirely covered by the cooktop (2) and thus the electrical insulation of the receiver coil (5) is provided. The receiver coil (5) is energized by the induction coil (3) with which the receiver coil (5) generates a magnetic field.
  • In an embodiment of the present invention, the receiver coil (5) comprises one or more than one winding printed in a planar spiral shape on the cooktop (2), that is made up of continuous copper conductive tracks.
  • In an embodiment of the present invention, the illumination element (4) is a light emitting diode (LED).
