Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、冷気循環により食材表面を冷却しながら、マイクロ波などの高周波によって誘電加熱解凍する調理器の構造に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
冷凍物の解凍としては、自然放置解凍、冷蔵庫の冷蔵室放置解凍、流水解凍、電子レンジによる解凍、解凍室での伝導熱や輻射熱、温風利用による解凍などがある。
【0003】
しかし、これらの解凍方法は、何れも非常に時間がかかったり、温度ムラ(解凍ムラ)が大きく高品位な解凍を望むことは困難であった。
【0004】
これに対し、高周波を利用して解凍時間の短縮を実現した上、冷気を被解凍物の表面に吹き付けることで表面温度の上昇を防ぎ解凍ムラを防止するようにした解凍方法が考えられている。
【0005】
従来のこの種の、調理器としては、冷気循環により食材表面を冷却しながら、マイクロ波などの高周波によって誘電加熱解凍するもの(例えば、特許文献1参照)がある。
【0006】
以下、図面を参照しながら上記従来の調理器を説明する。図12は、従来の調理器の断面図である。
【0007】
図12に示すように、従来の調理器1は、高周波の漏洩を防止する機構の付いた開閉自在の扉2、扉2により前面の開口部が開閉され周囲が金属でできた調理室3、調理室3の底面に設けられ被解凍物4を載せて回転させるための回転皿5、高周波を調理室3に送り込む導波管開口部6、調理室3に冷気を循環させるための冷気流入口7及び冷気流出口8が備えられ、調理室3の外側には表示部9、操作部10、調理に必要な条件を入力する入力手段11が備えられている。
【0008】
冷気流入口7と冷気流出口8は高周波を遮断する電波遮蔽通風口で構成されており、この通風口で例えばパンチングメタルでできている。また、調理室3と冷気の循環通路12は断熱材13で被われており、冷気循環ファン14を回して冷却手段としての冷却器15で冷やされた空気を調理室3に送り込むようになっている。冷却器15は圧縮機17と接続されている。高周波加熱手段としての高周波発生装置16は図示しない導波管で導波管開口部6に接続されている。
【0009】
高周波発生装置16は制御手段としての制御回路18によって制御される。回転皿5上の被解凍物4は加熱開始とともに回転皿モータ20によって回転される。また、冷気流入口7の冷気循環通路12側には、冷気流入口7の一部を塞ぐ冷風調整手段19が設けてあり、遮断板19a,19bを上下に動かすことによって、冷気流入口7から冷気が出てくる位置及び面積を変更することが可能になっている。
【0010】
以上のように構成された調理器1について、以下その動作を説明する。
【0011】
まず、事前に調理器1は圧縮機17を運転して冷却器15で空気を冷やし、冷気循環ファン14を回転させて、調理室3を十分に、例えば0℃以下に冷却しておく。
【0012】
次に、扉2を開け、被解凍物4を回転皿5に載せ、扉2を閉めて、この被解凍物4の解凍条件に必要な条件を入力手段11に入力し、操作部10を操作することによって解凍が開始される。このとき、表示部9には入力内容や動作状況が表示される。
【0013】
解凍開始の操作に伴い、回転皿モータ20に通電して被解凍物4を回転させ、高周波発生装置16から調理室3に高周波を供給して、被解凍物4を加熱する。
【0014】
このとき、圧縮機16、冷気循環ファン14を連続的に運転あるいは断続運転して冷気流入口7から調理室3内に例えば−10℃の冷気を吹き込み、被解凍物4に冷気を当てながら高周波加熱で解凍する。

【発明が解決しようとする課題】
しかしながら、上記従来の構成は、調理器1が高周波の漏洩を防止する機構の付いた開閉自在の扉2と、調理室3と、断熱材13で被われた冷気循環通路12と、調理室3に冷気流入口7と冷気流出口8が備えられ、冷気循環ファン14を回して、冷却手段としての冷却器15で冷やされた空気を調理室3に送り込むようになっており、また、冷気流入口7の一部を塞ぐ冷風調整手段19が設けられ、冷気が出てくる位置及び面積を変更する構成であるため、調理室3内は冷気循環通路12により形状を複雑化し、構成部品及び、断熱材13の材料注入時の発泡冶具など多くの部品と高額な冶具制作費でコストアップを招いたり、冷気循環通路12も長くなると共に、冷気流入口7での冷風調整手段19により風路抵抗を増し、冷気の風量を減らすことになるという欠点があった。
【0017】
本発明は従来の課題を解決するもので、冷気循環通路により、調理室の形状を複雑にすることなく、また、冷気循環通路や冷気流入口部での冷風調整手段による風量減等を防止して、製造コストを下げ、安価で高品位な解凍を行うことができる調理器を提供することを目的とする。
【0018】
また、上記従来の構成は、周囲が金属でできた調理室3は高周波を調理室3に送り込む導波管開口部6を備え、高周波加熱手段としての高周波発生装置16は、導波管で導波管開口部6に接続された構成であるため、接続部よりの冷気洩れと共に冷却された調理室3から導波管を通じ高周波発生装置16へ熱伝導し、結露を生じることになるという欠点があった。
【0019】
本発明の他の目的は、導波管と高周波発生装置との接続部からの冷気洩れを防ぎ、導波管と高周波発生装置及び導波管内への結露を防止して、温度の安定化と錆や腐食の防止を図ることである。
【0020】
また、上記従来の構成は、調理器1が高周波の漏洩を防止する機構の付いた開閉自在の扉2で調理室3の開口部を閉じた構成であるため、開閉自在の扉2による調理室3内の冷気洩れと、高周波の漏洩の防止の両立が出来ないという欠点があった。
【0021】
本発明の他の目的は、開閉自在の扉部での調理室内の冷気洩れ、高周波の漏洩を防止して、温度の安定化と安全性の向上を図ることである。
【0022】

調理器21下部の冷却機能部品収納箱28には、圧縮機78と、圧縮機78の上に蒸発皿79と、凝縮器80と、膨張機構としてのキャピラリ―チューブと、凝縮器冷却ファン81と、冷却制御盤82が設置されている。
【0051】
そして、圧縮機78、凝縮器80、高温冷媒循環用外周パイプ34、キャピラリ―チューブ、蒸発器31は順次環状に連接され、冷却室22を冷却する冷却手段としての冷凍サイクル(蒸気圧縮式の冷凍システム)を形成する。
【0052】
以上のように構成された本実施の形態の調理器について、以下その動作を説明する。
【0053】
調理器制御表示盤77部の電源の投入と同時に、圧縮機78の起動により冷凍サイクルを動作させ、蒸発器31により冷却を行う。このとき冷気循環用ファン40により、調理室25の空気を冷気流出口43から冷気吸入口30を通して蒸発器31を通し冷気吐出口32から冷気流入ガイド41を通して冷気流入口42から調理室25内に循環させ−20℃近くまで冷却を行う。
【0054】
冷凍食品を解凍する場合、まず、冷凍食品を調理室25内の食材皿48に載置して扉24と、調理室扉26を閉止すると、調理室扉26が扉開閉検知手段(扉フックスイッチ63)を作動させ、冷気循環用ファン40を回転させて、冷気を冷気流入口42から調理室25内に流入して、冷凍食品は冷気で覆われる。
【0055】
そして、調理器制御表示盤77部の調理食品選定スイッチで所定の調理食品を選定し、調理器制御表示盤77部の調理スタートスイッチを操作することにより、高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)は高周波を発振する。
【0056】
高周波は導波管67内を通って、励振口68から調理室25に入る。調理室25に放出された高周波は、食材皿48を回転させる食材皿回転用シャフト47を介して重量検知手段(重量検知装置46)により、重量を検知して調理器制御盤76と高周波発生制御盤74とにより高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)からの高周波の出力を制御し、食材皿回転用モータ49と食材皿回転用シャフト47はベルト51により、食材皿48を回転させ食材への高周波の照射量調整と高周波分布を均一にする。
【0057】
従って、冷凍食品は冷気に覆われ、表面からの解凍加熱の進行を抑制しつつ、冷凍食品の内部に徐々に解凍熱が浸透し、表面及び内部共にほぼ同一の加熱進行速度となって冷凍食品の解凍が行われる。そのため、加熱ムラのない良好な状態で冷凍食品の解凍を行うことができる。
【0058】
本実施の形態の調理器では、蒸発器31で冷却された冷気は、冷却室22前面開口の外周部分を冷気シール用ガスケット35付き扉24により冷気洩れをなくした冷却室22と、前面開口部外周を冷却室22に取り付けた調理室25との空間を通る。
【0059】
その結果、冷却室22内の調理室25の周りに冷気を循環させているため、冷却室22と調理室25の空間が空気循環通路となり、冷却室22と調理室25を通路部品として共用することができるため、冷気循環通路用の部品をなくせる。
【0060】
また、冷却部収納室29内の蒸発器31で冷却された冷気は、冷却室22を通り、冷却室22から冷却部収納室29に還り、調理室25は冷却される。このため、冷気循環通路の風路抵抗による冷気循環量の減少を押さえることができるため、調理室25内の冷却低下を防ぐことが可能となる。
【0061】
また、前面を開口した冷却室22は奥部に冷却部収納室29、続いて調理室25と冷却室22前面開口部から組み立てする配置としているため、冷却室22の壁面のフラットを多くでき、また、断熱箱体を簡単な形状にでき、外箱23の断熱材36を注入発泡する時の冶具も簡素にすることができるため、組み立て易く、加工し易く、製造コストを低減することが可能となる。
【0062】
また、柔軟材料で磁石を内蔵した冷気シール用ガスケット35により扉24を冷却室22開口部の外周部分の位置に当接させることができるため、冷気循環通路からの冷気洩れをなくせる。
【0063】
本実施の形態の調理器では、冷却用の冷媒は、圧縮機78により圧縮され、高温となり凝縮器80に送り出され、高温冷媒循環用外周パイプ35、キャピラリ―チューブで減圧され、蒸発器31を経て、圧縮機78へと還る。
【0064】
その結果、高温冷媒循環用外周パイプ35を断熱材33内へ設置した外箱23面は、高温冷媒により加熱される。
【0065】
このため、冷却室22の冷気循環通路から伝わる熱伝導により、外箱23面が冷やされる影響を押さえることができるため、外箱23への結露を防ぐことが可能となる。
【0066】
以上のように本実施の形態の調理器は、内部に前面を開口した冷却室22が形成され外面を外箱23で覆い冷却室22と外箱23との間に断熱材33を設けた断熱箱体と、冷却室22の開口部を開閉する扉24と、冷却室22を冷却する冷却手段としての冷凍サイクル(蒸気圧縮式の冷凍システム)の蒸発器31と、冷却室22内に設けられた前面を開口した金属で覆われた調理室25と、調理室25の開口部を開閉する金属製の調理室扉26と、食材を加熱する高周波を発生させる高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)と、外箱23の上面を冷却室22の側面との間を貫通して高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)により発振した高周波を調理室25内に導く導波管67とを備えた調理器21において、調理室25は、下部を支える調理室25の幅よりも長い支持部38を冷却室22の左右の壁に設けた溝39に挿入され、さらに、前面開口部外周面を冷却室22の間口開口を塞ぐ形で冷却室22の空間内に設け、調理室25内を冷却する調理室冷却手段としての調理室25奥面外側の冷気循環用ファン40と、調理室25底面の外に固定され、バネと磁石または、圧電素子を備えた重量検知手段(重量検知装置46)を設置した調理室25の底面を貫通する食材皿回転用シャフト47は、調理室の外部側面に回転可能に設けられた食材皿回転用モータ49と、連動手段としての食材皿回転用シャフト47部にプーリー50と、食材皿回転用モータ49間にベルト51とで連動して回転させる食材皿48と、調理室扉26とを調理室25と一体に設け、重量検知手段(重量検知装置46)としてのバネと磁石または、圧電素子とからの検出信号に応じて調理室冷却手段としての調理室25奥面外側の冷気循環用ファン40の動作を制御する制御手段としての調理器制御盤76とを設けたものである。
【0067】
本実施の形態の調理器では、冷却室25冷却手段としての冷凍サイクル(蒸気圧縮式冷凍システム)の蒸発器31と、調理室25冷却手段としての調理室25奥面外側の冷気循環用ファン40と、冷却部収納室29の冷気吐出口32が同じ高さ位置と、さらに、冷気循環用ファン40より大きい冷気流入ガイド41を前後方向に設け、冷気流入ガイド41と同じ高さ位置の前後方向に備えた冷気流入口42とで冷却冷気を直接調理室25に送風し、調理室25、冷却室22に送り出された冷気は、冷却室22前面開口部を覆う扉24と、開口部冷気シール用ガスケット35で洩れのないようシールし、調理室25内に高周波を導く導波管67の外箱23上面貫通部は粘着性シール材72で密封し、また、高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)との間に気密シール材70でシールし密閉したので、通路抵抗による冷気風量減を防止でき、冷却室22冷却手段(蒸発器31)による調理室25内冷却時に調理室25内への外気の流入による冷却低下を防ぐことができるため、調理室25内への風量確保と、調理室25内の温度の安定化により食材の表面温度を一定に保ち高品位解凍ができる。
【0068】
また、食材を載せる食材皿48と、重量検知手段としてのバネと磁石または、圧電素子を備えた食材皿回転用シャフト47と、冷気循環用ファン40の回転を制御する制御手段としての調理器制御盤76を設けたので、食材の重量は載せるだけで計量できるため、重量別の冷気循環用ファン40の回転制御により冷気を効率よく食材に当てることができ、高品位解凍ができる。
【0069】
また、調理室25の奥面に、冷気循環用ファン40と、冷気流入ガイド41と、底面に食材皿回転用シャフト47と、バネと磁石または、圧電素子を備えた重量検知手段(重量検知装置46)と、開口面に金属製の調理室扉26とを設けたので、調理室25と一体で取り付け、取り外しができるため、組み立て時あるいはサービス分解時の工数減により、製造あるいはサービスのコストを下げることができる。
【0070】
なお、本実施の形態の調理器では、調理室25の冷気流出口43を調理室25内の天井面、または左右面、さらに底面に設けても良く、その場合は、冷気流入口42からの冷気を食材皿48の食材全体に当てるようにできるので、解凍時の食材表面温度上昇を防ぐことが可能となる。
【0071】
以上のように本実施の形態の調理器は、導波管67と高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)とを収納する解凍機能部品収納箱27内露出部分の導波管67が貫通する外箱23天井部において、導波管67と接続された高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)との間に独立発泡タイプ等の気密シール材70と、導波管67と高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)の接続部より外周の大きい露受け皿73と、導波管67が貫通する外箱23天井部と露受け皿73とを密封する粘着性シール材72と、解凍機能部品収納箱27には高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)を制御する高周波発生制御盤74と、高周波発生制御盤74と高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)を冷却する高周波発生装置冷却ファン75とを設けたものである。
【0072】
本実施の形態の調理器では、導波管67と接続された高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)との間に独立発泡タイプ等の気密シール材70でシールしたので、接続部からの調理室25内への冷気洩れを防ぎ、調理室25内の温度の安定化により高品位解凍ができ、また、導波管67内への結露を防ぐことにより錆や腐食を防止することができる。
【0073】
また、導波管67と高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)の接続部より外周の大きい露受け皿73としたので、冷却による導波管67と高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)への結露水を外箱23天井部に排水することなく露受け皿73に受けることができるため、高周波発生制御盤74と高周波発生手段(高周波発生装置69)を冷却する高周波発生装置冷却ファン75の熱風により結露水を蒸発させ外箱23天井部の錆や腐食を防止することができる。
【0074】
また、導波管67が貫通する外箱23天井部と露受け皿73とに粘着性シール材70を塗布したので、導波管67の貫通部からの冷気洩れと結露水の進入を防ぐことができるため、調理室25内の温度の安定化により高品位解凍ができ、また、導波管67が貫通する外箱23天井部を粘着性シール材70の密封により錆や腐食の防止をすることができる。
【0075】

【0076】
また、調理器21の扉24のスライド部37と、調理室扉26のフック部55とは組み合わせ時隙間を持たせているので、調理器21の扉24及び調理室扉26の取り付け位置ずれの吸収ができるため、調理室25内の冷気洩れと、高周波の漏洩の防止の両立を図ることができる。

【発明の効果】
以上説明したように請求項1に記載の発明は、調理室下部の支持部と冷却室の溝とで、冷却室と調理室との間に空間が保持できるように調理室を冷却室内に配置し、冷却室と調理室との間の空間を冷気循環通路に利用するので、空間寸法を安定させることができ、冷気循環通路のための部品を削減でき、構成、形状を簡単にでき、冷気循環通路の風路抵抗による冷気循環量の減少を押さえることができ、また、冷却手段による調理室内冷却時に調理室内への外気流入を防止でき、調理室内の冷却能力低下を防止でき、また、冷却室の開口部からの部品取り付けが可能になり、断熱箱体を簡単な形状にでき、冷却室壁面のフラットを多くでき、外箱の断熱材を注入発泡する時の冶具も簡素にでき、また、断熱箱体を簡単な形状にでき、組み立て易く、加工し易くなり、製造コストを低減できる。
