It is the front view and sectional drawing of a sensor unit.

図1において本実施の形態における誘導加熱調理器は、トッププレート21の上に載置された被加熱物22を加熱する加熱コイル23と、加熱コイル23に高周波電流を供給するインバータ回路27と、被加熱物から放射される赤外線を検出する赤外線センサユニット24と、赤外線センサユニット24の出力より被加熱物の温度を算出する温度算出手段25と、温度算出手段25の出力に応じてインバータ回路27の出力を制御する制御手段26と、外気を本体内に送風する冷却ファン28とを有している。   In FIG. 1, the induction heating cooker in the present embodiment includes a heating coil 23 that heats an object 22 placed on a top plate 21, an inverter circuit 27 that supplies a high-frequency current to the heating coil 23, An infrared sensor unit 24 that detects infrared rays emitted from the object to be heated, a temperature calculation unit 25 that calculates the temperature of the object to be heated from the output of the infrared sensor unit 24, and an inverter circuit 27 according to the output of the temperature calculation unit 25 Control means 26 for controlling the output and a cooling fan 28 for blowing outside air into the main body.

図2の赤外線センサユニット24において、ケースA1、ケースB2、赤外線センサ3である。また、同図において、発光体4、基板5、ビス6、ケースA1の平面部7、ケースA1の側壁8、ケースB2の平面部9、ケースB2の側壁10、赤外線センサユニットの取付部11である。   In the infrared sensor unit 24 of FIG. 2, the case A1, the case B2, and the infrared sensor 3 are included. In the same figure, the light emitter 4, the substrate 5, the screw 6, the flat surface portion 7 of the case A1, the side wall 8 of the case A1, the flat surface portion 9 of the case B2, the side wall 10 of the case B2, and the mounting portion 11 of the infrared sensor unit. is there.

また、図3の赤外線センサユニット24において、側壁8と側壁10の間の隙間12である。   Further, in the infrared sensor unit 24 of FIG. 3, the gap 12 is between the side wall 8 and the side wall 10.

以上のように構成された誘導加熱調理器について、以下その動作、作用を説明する。   About the induction heating cooking appliance comprised as mentioned above, the operation | movement and an effect | action are demonstrated below.

インバータ回路27から加熱コイル23に高周波電流が供給されると、加熱コイル23上方に載置された被加熱物21が加熱される。被加熱物21からは温度に応じた赤外線が放射されており、被加熱物21から発した赤外線はトッププレート22を透過して赤外線センサユニット24に入力され、温度算出手段25にて被加熱物21の温度に換算される。また、冷却ファン28により本体内に送風される冷却風によってインバータ回路27や加熱コイル23や赤外線センサユニット24などが冷却され温度上昇による性能の低下を防止することができる。   When a high-frequency current is supplied from the inverter circuit 27 to the heating coil 23, the object to be heated 21 placed above the heating coil 23 is heated. Infrared light corresponding to the temperature is emitted from the object to be heated 21, and the infrared light emitted from the object to be heated 21 passes through the top plate 22 and is input to the infrared sensor unit 24. It is converted into a temperature of 21. Further, the inverter circuit 27, the heating coil 23, the infrared sensor unit 24, and the like are cooled by the cooling air blown into the main body by the cooling fan 28, so that a decrease in performance due to a temperature rise can be prevented.

そして、赤外線センサユニット24は赤外線センサ3を設けた基板5と、アルミなどの導電性の金属材料により形成されたケースA1およびケースB2とで構成され、ケースA1とケースB2とで基板5を覆うように挟んでビス6で固定される。また、赤外線センサユニット24は取付部11を介して本体内に固定される。ここで、ケースA1は平面部7の端部を折り曲げて形成した側壁8を有し、ケースB2はケースA1の平面部7より大なる平面部9の端部を折り曲げて形成した側壁10を有する。これによって、相互の側壁間に隙間12を設けた構成としている。   The infrared sensor unit 24 includes a substrate 5 on which the infrared sensor 3 is provided, and a case A1 and a case B2 formed of a conductive metal material such as aluminum. The case A1 and the case B2 cover the substrate 5. And fixed with screws 6. Further, the infrared sensor unit 24 is fixed in the main body via the attachment portion 11. Here, the case A1 has a side wall 8 formed by bending the end portion of the flat portion 7, and the case B2 has a side wall 10 formed by bending the end portion of the flat portion 9 larger than the flat portion 7 of the case A1. . Thus, the gap 12 is provided between the side walls.

以上より、図3の矢印で示すように冷却ファン28からの冷却風を隙間12に送風することにより、赤外線センサユニット24を十分に冷却することができ、ケース内の温度上昇の影響による温度検知性能の低下を防ぐことができる。また、冷却風は赤外線センサ3に直接送風することがなく、ケースに貫通穴がないので、埃や外乱光の進入による赤外線センサの温度検知性能の低下を防ぐことができる。また、電気的なノイズの影響も低減でき、温度検知性能の低下を防ぐことができる。   As described above, the infrared sensor unit 24 can be sufficiently cooled by blowing the cooling air from the cooling fan 28 to the gap 12 as shown by the arrows in FIG. 3, and the temperature detection due to the temperature rise in the case Performance degradation can be prevented. In addition, the cooling air does not blow directly to the infrared sensor 3 and the case does not have a through hole, so that it is possible to prevent the temperature detection performance of the infrared sensor from deteriorating due to the entrance of dust or ambient light. In addition, the influence of electrical noise can be reduced, and a decrease in temperature detection performance can be prevented.

(実施の形態2)
図4は本発明の実施の形態2における赤外線センサユニットの正面図および断面図である。尚、実施の形態1と基本構成は同じであるため説明は省略する。ケースA1の側壁8の端部とケースB2の平面部9との間に隙間13を設けた構成としたことにより、図4の矢印で示すようにケースA1内に冷却風を送風することができ、直接赤外線センサ3を冷却することができる。これにより赤外線センサの温度上昇の影響による温度検知性能の低下を防ぐことができる。また、赤外線センサを通る送風経路は、隙間13が赤外線センサ3より下側に位置することにより蛇行するためノイズや埃や外乱光が進入し難くなり従来の貫通孔形状とは異なり、電気的なノイズ、埃や外乱光の進入による赤外線センサの温度検知性能の低下を防ぐことができる。
(Embodiment 2)
FIG. 4 is a front view and a sectional view of the infrared sensor unit according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Since the basic configuration is the same as that of the first embodiment, the description is omitted.

The infrared sensor 3 can be directly cooled. Thereby, the fall of the temperature detection performance by the influence of the temperature rise of an infrared sensor can be prevented. Also, the air flow path passing through the infrared sensor meanders because the gap 13 is located below the infrared sensor 3, so that noise, dust and disturbance light are difficult to enter, and unlike the conventional through hole shape, It is possible to prevent the temperature detection performance of the infrared sensor from deteriorating due to the entry of noise, dust, or ambient light.
