Description

  The present invention relates to a stove device provided with a gas burner, which has a child lock function that does not ignite the gas burner even if an ignition operation is performed.

  In such a stove device, an ignition operation unit such as an ignition button is provided, and the gas burner can be ignited by a relatively simple operation such as pressing the ignition operation unit. Thus, for example, a child can ignite a gas burner without the supervisor's permission. Therefore, in the case of an ignition button, a child lock mechanism is conventionally provided that slides an obstacle behind the ignition button to physically prevent the ignition button from being pushed.

  However, even if it is a child, the child lock mechanism can be returned to its original state, and there is a possibility that the child lock is easily released and the gas burner is ignited. Therefore, it is known that the stove device has a fingerprint authentication function so that only the supervisor who has registered the fingerprint can release the child lock (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

JP 2003-322340 A (Claim 2, paragraph 0016)

  In the case of releasing the child lock by the conventional fingerprint authentication, since the fingerprint authentication device must be added to the stove device, there is a problem that the price of the stove device becomes high. In addition, since the supervisor who performed fingerprint authentication must actually go to the stove device installation location and press the finger against the fingerprint authentication unit, the child lock cannot be set or released, so the setting release work is troublesome. is there.

  In view of the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a stove device that can perform reliable child lock without relatively increasing the cost and that does not require a child lock setting releasing operation. .

  In order to solve the above-described problems, a stove device according to the present invention is a stove device provided with a gas burner, and when a spark operation unit provided in the stove device is operated, a spark discharge is generated at least between the gas burner and the spark plug. The control unit for performing the ignition operation of the gas burner is provided with a communication means for performing wireless communication with a portable terminal that can be carried separately from the stove device. When the lock operation is performed, the control unit does not perform the ignition operation even when the ignition operation unit is operated.

  By performing a child lock setting canceling operation from a portable terminal that performs wireless communication with the stove device, the supervisor does not actually have to go to the place where the stove device is installed.

  The communication means can communicate with a plurality of portable terminals, and when a child lock operation is performed on any of the plurality of portable terminals, the ignition operation is not performed on the other portable terminals. It is desirable to be able to release the state.

  Once child lock is set, there are cases where the operation to cancel is troublesome. In that case, a predetermined release range centered on the stove device is set, and the child lock operation is performed, and any mobile terminal does not exist within this release range. The child lock state may be automatically released when the portable terminal enters the release range. However, it is not desirable to leave the child lock state as it is when it is not conscious of being released. Therefore, when it is configured to automatically release the child lock in this way, when all the mobile terminals move out of the release range without performing the operation to release the child lock state, the child lock is automatically re-opened again. It is desirable to return to the child lock state.

  Further, the stove device is provided with an operation button unrelated to the child lock function, and by performing a hidden operation on the operation button, a state in which the ignition operation set by the mobile terminal is not performed is performed. It is desirable to be able to release it.

  Furthermore, when an ignition operation is performed during a state in which the ignition operation is not performed, the control unit may store the fact and notify the mobile terminal that has become communicable thereafter.

  As is clear from the above description, the present invention performs child lock of the stove device with a portable terminal separate from the stove device, so that only the communication function with the portable terminal needs to be added to the stove device, In addition, the supervisor can release the child lock without going to the installation position of the stove.

The figure which shows the stove apparatus and portable terminal by this invention Flow diagram showing child lock operation The figure which shows the communication range centering on the stove device

  Referring to FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 is an example of a stove device according to the present invention. One gas burner 11 is provided on the left and right of the upper surface of the stove device 1, and when the gas burner is ignited, the fire extinguishing button 12 is pushed in.

  When the point-off button 12 is pushed in, it is detected by a micro switch (not shown), and the control unit (not shown) supplies high-voltage power to the spark plug provided near the gas burner 11 when the point-off button 12 is pushed. Thus, a spark discharge is generated between the spark plug and the gas burner 11.

  On the other hand, the stove device 1 according to the present embodiment is configured such that when the fire extinguishing button 12 is pushed in, the gas valve is opened by the pushing force and gas is supplied to the gas burner 11. As described above, when gas is ejected from the gas burner 11 while spark discharge is occurring between the spark plug and the gas, the gas burner 11 is in a combustion state.

  In this way, the gas burner 11 can be ignited by a simple operation of pushing the fire extinguisher button 12, so that the child lock lever 13 is prevented from pushing the fire extinguisher button 12 by mischief and not igniting the gas burner 11. Conventionally provided.

  When the child lock lever 13 is slid in the horizontal direction, an obstacle moves to the back side of the fire extinguishing button 12, and even if an attempt is made to push the fire extinguishing button 12, the obstacle becomes an obstacle and It will be in a state where it cannot be physically pushed. However, since such a child lock lever 13 can be easily released even by a child, there is a possibility that inadvertent ignition by the child cannot be reliably prevented.

  Therefore, in the present invention, a communication function capable of wireless two-way communication with the external mobile terminal 2 is added to the control unit. For this wireless communication, for example, a communication system based on the Bluetooth (registered trademark) standard can be adopted. The mobile terminal 2 may be used by installing an application for child lock on the smartphone 21 or may be a mobile terminal 22 dedicated to setting and releasing child lock. These portable terminals 2 are registered in the stove device 1 and used.

  Referring to FIG. 2, in the present embodiment, mobile terminal 2 is first registered with stove device 1 (S1), and then the child lock is operated with mobile terminal 2 registered (S2). ), A switch for child lock operation may be separately provided in the stove device 1 and the release may be performed by the portable terminal 2.

  When the child lock is activated, the memory is first reset (S4). If the ignition operation is performed until the child lock is released, that is, in a state where the child lock is operated (S5), the portable terminal 2 is present in the communication area centering on the stove device 1 at that time. Then, all the mobile terminals 2 in the communication area are notified that the ignition operation has been performed (S7). When this notification is received, the supervisor carrying the portable terminal 2 can check the stove device 1 by visiting the place where the stove device 1 is installed.

  On the other hand, if no portable terminal 2 exists in the communication range when the ignition operation is performed, the fact that the ignition operation has been performed is written in the memory. Then, when the child lock is released (S9), the portable terminal 2 is displayed that the ignition operation stored in the memory has been performed (S9).

  By the way, in the above description, the child lock is operated by the switch provided in the portable terminal 2 or the stove apparatus 1, and the child lock is released only by the portable terminal 2. However, the child lock may be released without using the portable terminal 2 by performing a hidden operation that cannot be operated by the child using an existing switch or the like provided in the stove device 1.

  In the embodiment described above, the child lock is released by the operation on the portable terminal 2 or the hidden operation on the stove device. However, the child lock may be automatically released.

  Specifically, as shown in FIG. 3, a release range E2 is set inside a communication range E1 in which communication between the stove device 1 and the portable terminal 2 is possible. Then, as shown in S6 and S7 of FIG. 2 above, when the portable terminal 1 enters the communication range E1 from outside the communication range E1 (point A) and further the communication terminal 2 enters the release range E2 (B Point), the child lock is automatically released to the stove device 1 side. Then, even if it does not cancel a child lock by manual operation, the person who has the portable terminal 2 can use the stove apparatus 1. FIG. In addition, what is necessary is just to discriminate | determine that it entered into the cancellation | release range E2, for example by the strength of the radio field strength.

  However, it is not desirable to leave the child lock released when the portable terminal 2 enters the release range E2 by accident without intending to use the stove device 1. Therefore, when the portable terminal 2 comes out of the prohibited range E2 again (point C) without releasing the child lock by manual operation, the stove device 1 automatically returns to the child lock state.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to an above-described form, You may add a various change in the range which does not deviate from the summary of this invention.
