Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a cooking device provided with a combustion cooker such as a gas stove that burns gas for use and a ventilation device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A cooking device which links the heating action of a combustion cooker and the operation of a ventilation device is convenient because it eliminates waste caused by forgetting to put on or turn off the ventilation device when using the combustion cooker. However, when the combustion cooker is ignited, the ventilator operates in tandem to ventilate the room by discharging the smoke, odor, hot air, etc. generated during cooking with a certain amount of air to the outside. Therefore, in the above-mentioned conventional configuration, since the ventilation device is in a constant operation, the ventilation according to the actual state of use of the combustion cooker is not performed, and if the heating power of the combustion cooker is increased and cooking is performed, smoke is generated. If odor, odor, or hot air cannot be exhausted sufficiently, or if the air flow rate setting when the combustion cooker and the ventilation system are linked is too large, ventilation will be performed more than necessary and the room temperature will be lowered too much. There was a problem that the sound became more noise than necessary.

[0003]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the problems of the conventional example described above, the present invention is intended to realize a cooking apparatus provided with a ventilation device that ventilates according to the heating power of a combustion cooker.

[0004]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention comprises a combustion cooker having a heat power adjusting means, and a ventilation device which operates in conjunction with the heating action of the combustion cooker. The ventilation device selects a ventilation air flow rate according to the thermal power adjustment value of the combustion cooker, and when a plurality of burners are simultaneously used in the combustion cooker, a total sum of the thermal power adjustment values of the burners in use. The ventilation air volume is selected according to the above.

According to the above invention, the ventilation air volume corresponding to the change in the heat power of the combustion cooker can be obtained according to the actual condition of cooking, and the convenience is improved.

[0006]

The object of the present invention can be achieved by adopting the configurations described in each claim as an embodiment. Therefore, the configuration of each claim and the action by the configuration will be described below together. An embodiment will be described.

The invention according to claim 1 of the present invention comprises a combustion cooker having a heat-power adjusting means, and a ventilation device which operates in conjunction with the heating action of the combustion cooker, wherein the ventilation device comprises: Ventilation air volume is selected according to the heating power adjustment value of the combustion cooker, and when a plurality of burners are simultaneously used in the combustion cooking device, the ventilation air flow rate is calculated according to the total of the heating power adjustment values of the burners in use. It is a cooking device configured to select.

Then, the amount of air to be ventilated is set to "weak", "medium", or "strong" according to the amount of combustion when adjusting the heat power of the combustion cooker.
By setting to, for example, when maximizing the heat power when cooking stir-fried food, or when cooking with multiple burners at the same time, a “strong” operation that ventilates a large amount of smoke, odor, and hot air, boiling water etc. Ventilation when using with heat power can be done with "medium" operation, and ventilation when cooking with light heat such as simmered food can be done with "weak" operation to ventilate the room according to the actual conditions of cooking.

The invention according to claim 2 is the invention according to claim 1, wherein the lighting or extinguishing operation of the illumination of the ventilation device is synchronized with the interlocking operation of the heating action of the combustion cooker and the operation of the ventilation device. It is a thing.

Therefore, in addition to the function of the invention described in claim 1, the lighting or turning-off operation of the lighting is synchronized with the heating operation of the combustion cooker and the operation of the ventilation device in synchronization with the normal high place. It is not necessary to turn on or turn off the light with the operation switch of a certain ventilation device, which makes it possible to brighten the hand at the time of cooking and prevent forgetting to turn off the light.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

(Embodiment 1) FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a state in which a combustion cooker and a ventilation device according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention are set. FIG. 2 is a schematic flowchart during the interlocking operation of the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 4 is a setting for storing the interlocking air volume of the ventilation device according to the thermal power adjustment value of the combustion cooker of the first embodiment of the present invention. It is a figure which shows a memory.

In FIG. 1, a ventilation fan 2 is arranged above the combustion cooker 1, and a ventilation interlocking connection line 3 connects the combustion cooker 1 and the ventilation fan 2 through the inside of the wall. 4 is an operation button for the left stove, 5 is an operation button for the back stove, 6 is an operation button for the right stove, and 7 is an operation button for the grill, which ignites and extinguishes the combustion cooker 1, and each has a ventilation interlocking switch. is doing. 4a is a left stove heat control button, 5a is a back stove heat control button, 6a is a right stove heat control button, 7a is a grill heat control button, and each burner heat control is performed. As with 7, it has a built-in ventilation interlock switch. A ventilation fan operation switch 8 can be used to operate, stop, or switch the ventilation fan. The operation buttons 4 to 7 and the heat power adjustment button 4
When the ignition and heat power of the combustion cooker 1 are adjusted by operating a to 7a, the built-in ventilation interlocking switch recognizes the ignition state and the heat power adjustment value, and the signal is stored in the main body of the cooker 1. Sent to the circuit. The control circuit determines the received signal and transmits the output signal of the interlocking operation to the ventilation fan 2 through the ventilation interlocking connection line 3, and the interlocking operation of the ventilation fan 2 is started.

In FIG. 2, in step S1, a check is performed on the heating power adjustment values of the stove and grill used and their combinations. In step S2, the interlocked air volume of the ventilation fan 2 is read out from the memory number shown in FIG. 4 according to the stove used and the combustion amount of the grill. In step S3, the ventilation fan 2 is operated according to the read air volume setting. As an example, when using the right stove of the combustion cooker 1 and cooking stir-fried food at the maximum heat power of 4000 kcal / h, the combustion amount is 4000 kcal in step S1.
After checking / h, in step S2, memory number 3 in FIG. 4 is read out, and in step S3, the ventilation fan 2 is operated with "strong" air volume. Next, in step S4, it is checked whether combustion is continuing, that is, whether there is an instruction for extinguishing the fire with the right stove operation button.
