Description

  The present invention relates to a heating cooker for heating a metal cooking container or the like placed on a top plate, an air discharge system including the same, kitchen furniture such as a sink (also referred to as a “kitchen counter”), and an air discharge system. The present invention relates to an integrated management device for home appliances and an air quality improvement system.

  As a conventional cooking device of this type, there is one equipped with a grill cabinet on the left side inside the main body. The grill can be cooked by opening a door provided on the front, inserting a heated object such as fish into the grill cabinet, closing the door and heating with an electric heater or the like (for example, patents) Reference 1 and Patent Document 2).

There is also a type in which the inside of a main body of a heating cooker used by being incorporated in kitchen furniture is divided into a grill cabinet and storage chambers on the left and right. In the storage room, ingredients, seasonings, cooking containers, and the like are stored (for example, see Patent Document 3).
The front of this storage room is covered by a cover with an air intake port that takes in air that is sucked in from outside the kitchen furniture so that the internal space of the kitchen furniture does not become high temperature due to the operation of the cooking device. The air can be taken into the storage room.

  On the other hand, high-temperature steam, oily smoke, etc. generated during cooking from a heating cooker in a living space such as a kitchen greatly affect the air quality of the living space. In other words, it greatly affects the comfort of the living space. Therefore, in order to improve air quality, an air quality improvement system that links a heating cooker and a range hood (a type of exhaust device) provided thereabove has also been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 4). In this conventional example, when cooking is started, a far-infrared signal is transmitted from the heating cooker to the range hood, and the range hood that has received this signal immediately starts operation. There has also been a proposal of operating an air purifier installed on the ceiling of the room almost simultaneously with the start of cooking to prevent oil smoke and odor due to cooking from spreading into the living space (see, for example, Patent Document 5).

Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2006-210146 (page 3, FIG. 2) JP 2013-182694 A (first page, FIG. 3) Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2015-155778 (second page, FIG. 1) JP 2009-121751 A (first page, FIG. 1) Japanese Patent Laying-Open No. 2006-095126 (first page, FIG. 4)

(Definition)
“Household appliances” EE refers to electrical devices designed primarily for use at home. The home appliance EE includes an induction heating cooker 8, an air conditioner 5, an air purifier 7, an exhaust device 9, and a lighting fixture 6, which will be described later. In the following description, the home appliance EE includes an induction heating cooker 8, an air conditioner 5, an air purifier 7, and an exhaust device 9 unless otherwise specified.
The induction heating cooker 8 is a kind of heating cooker. As another type of cooking device, there is also a cooking device that uses a radiant electric heating source that radiates heat from below the top plate to perform cooking. In the following description, the induction cooking device is “ It is called a “cooker”.

The “identification information” of the home appliance EE is information for specifying the home appliance EE, which is information specific to the home appliance EE, and is important information that is necessary for performing accurate repairs and inspections. is there. For example, specifically, the following is included in the identification information, but is not limited thereto.
(1) Manufacturer name of home appliances (2) Model name (3) Model number (4) Rated power consumption (5) Date of purchase (In many cases, this is the date of the quality assurance period of the manufacturer or distributor. )
(6) Date of start of use (7) Quality assurance number

  The “integrated management device” 10 is a device for operating two or more home appliances EE in cooperation. For example, it refers to a device that links the operation of the cooking device 8 with the operation of other home appliances EE such as the air purifier 7 and the exhaust device 9. The integrated management apparatus 10 has a function of acquiring information related to the current status such as operation, stop, and standby state of the home appliance EE from the home appliance EE using a wired or wireless signal.

  The “power command device” refers to a device having a function of individually limiting the power consumption of a plurality of home appliances EE and regulating the upper limit of the total power consumption in one home. The “integrated management device” may also serve as the “power command device” for one home appliance EE (the first embodiment described below corresponds to this).

  In addition, the “power command device” 5 of one home appliance is not necessarily a power command device for other home appliances. For example, in the first embodiment, the integrated management device 10 is not a power command device for the air cleaner 7 described later. The power command device 10 obtains the operation information of the air cleaner 7, but regulates the upper limit value of the power consumption so that the upper limit of the total power consumption of one household does not exceed a predetermined value. There is no. That is, the integrated management apparatus 10 has only a function of instructing start and stop of the air cleaner 7 and change of the air cleaning capability. In other words, the operation status of the other electrical equipment EE and the total amount of power consumption at that time are determined by the integrated management device 10, and the power consumption of the air purifier 7 itself is limited or the operation starts depending on the determination result. Is never prohibited.

“Environmental information” of the integrated environment detection unit 16 to be described later refers to “environmental data” itself such as room temperature obtained by the integrated environment detection unit 16 and “environmental evaluation information” created based on such environmental data. "Is a general term. “Environmental information” includes, but is not limited to, the following types of information that affect the living comfort of a house.
(1) Temperature information (2) Humidity information (3) Dust scattering degree (dust amount per unit air volume) information (4) Pollen scattering amount information (5) Light quantity (visible light amount) information ... In other words, living space Is the brightness information.
(6) Noise information: Information on the quietness of the living space.

  Data on the air temperature (for example, 35 ° C.) acquired by the integrated environment detection unit 10 corresponds to the environmental data. Information that has been classified, ranked, or otherwise processed based on the temperature (35 ° C.) through some evaluation standard or calculation processing corresponds to “environmental evaluation information” as described above. For example, information such as “room temperature is high” and “standard temperature” corresponds to the “environmental evaluation information”.

  The “air quality improving device” means a device that has an effect of improving the temperature, humidity, cleanliness, etc. of the air in the living space. When the cleanliness is improved, the content of harmful substances and dust is small and the air becomes clean. In Embodiment 1, the air conditioner 5, the air purifier 7, and the exhaust device 9 correspond.

  FIG. 1 shows an example of one house. In FIG. 1, 3 indicates a living space of one house 1. For example, a kitchen. Although only one is shown in the house 1 of FIG. 1, there are other living spaces such as a living room and a bedroom. For example, 200 V power is supplied to the living space 3 from a commercial power source EP of an electric power company outside the house 1. The electric power is drawn into the house 1 through the watt-hour meter 2.

  Reference numeral 4 denotes a power supply line (main trunk line) connected to a 200V commercial power supply EP via a breaker BK. An air exhaust unit 9 such as an air conditioner 5, a lighting fixture 6, a ceiling-mounted air purifier 7, a heating cooker 8, and a range hood are connected to the power line. In FIG. 1, only one air conditioner 5, lighting fixture 6, air purifier 7, and exhaust device 9 are shown, but there may be a plurality of them.

  Reference numeral 10 denotes an integrated management device that also serves as a power command device to which power is supplied via the breaker BK, such as a vertical wall surface 11 of the kitchen (see FIGS. 2 and 13), etc. It is installed on the wall or placed on the floor. In addition, the lighting fixture 6, the air cleaner 7, and the exhaust apparatus 9 are supported by the horizontal wall surface 12 which comprises the ceiling of living space.

  In FIG. 1, 13 is a composite sensor (temperature / humidity sensor) that detects the temperature and humidity in the room of the living space HA, and is a kind of environmental sensor. Reference numeral 14 denotes a temperature sensor installed in the external space of the house, which is a kind of environmental sensor.

  The composite sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14 have a function of transmitting the measured temperature and humidity to the integrated environment detection unit 16 of the integrated management apparatus 10 described later by wireless or electrical signal. The power source of these environmental sensors may be a charged battery or may be power from the power line 1. In addition, since these sensors have a low power consumption of about 1 W (watt), even when they are operated with power from the power supply line 1, they are not subject to power restriction of the power command device 5.

  These environmental sensors continuously transmit measurement data to the integrated management apparatus 10 at a predetermined timing. For example, the temperature and humidity are measured at intervals of 1 minute in the living space 3 with the air conditioner 5 and at intervals of 2 minutes in a bedroom (not shown). The various environmental sensors may be equipped with a power supply by generating power by receiving external light such as visible light. In this way, connection with the power supply line (main trunk line) 4 can be made unnecessary, and installation becomes easy.

  Although not shown, in addition to the above-described ones, as one type of environmental sensor, a pollen sensor that measures the amount of pollen in the air, a dust sensor that measures the amount of dust per unit volume in the air, A noise sensor for detecting the noise level and an illuminance sensor for detecting the brightness of the room are provided at appropriate positions in each living space. In addition to the composite sensor 13, a temperature sensor or a humidity sensor for detecting the temperature and humidity outside the room or outside the house may be provided. Furthermore, a sensor such as a PM2.5 sensor 42 described later may be provided indoors so as to measure the amount of particulate matter. Data of detection results of these sensors is transmitted to the integrated environment detection unit 16 of the integrated management apparatus 10 as needed.

  On the other hand, since the air quality outside the house 1 is greatly influenced by particulate matter, pollen, etc., it is preferable to provide a pollen sensor or a particulate matter sensor. For example, in FIG. 1, a pollen sensor 41 and a PM2.5 sensor 42 are provided. These sensors 41 and 42 are installed, for example, on the outer wall surface of the house 1, the outer surface of the front door, the outer frame of the window, the veranda, the rooftop, and the like. Data of detection results of these sensors is transmitted to the integrated environment detection unit 16 of the integrated management apparatus 10 as needed.

  The integrated environment detection unit 16 itself does not need to be built in the integrated management device 10, and the integrated environment detection unit 9 is installed in a place away from the main body 10A of the integrated management device 10 or in another living space. Even when connected to 10A wirelessly or by wire, it is defined as “the integrated management device 10 includes the integrated environment detection unit 16”.

  In FIG. 1, reference numeral 20 denotes a human sensor that can detect whether a human is in the living space 3 by detecting infrared rays that are naturally emitted by the human. In addition, you may install such a person detection sensor also in the other living space of this house 1.

  The human detection sensor 20 has a function of transmitting the result of detecting whether there is a person to the human detection unit 21 built in the main body 10A of the integrated management apparatus 10 by radio or electric signal. In addition, a battery charged in advance may be used as the power source of the human detection sensor 20, or power supplied by being branched from the power supply line 1 may be used. In addition, since these sensors have a small power consumption of about 1 W to several W, even when they are operated with the power from the power line 1, they are not targeted for power limitation of the integrated management apparatus 10. These sensors continuously transmit measurement data to the integrated management apparatus 10 at a predetermined timing (for example, every 10 seconds). Note that the human sensor 20 is not limited to the infrared type, but may be another type, for example, an ultrasonic type.

Next, FIG. 1 will be described.
Reference numeral 15 denotes kitchen furniture such as a sink in which the heating cooker 8 is installed (built-in), which will be described in detail later.
Reference numeral 17 denotes a router connected to the integrated management device 10, which is an external device such as a regional earthquake information providing organization or a cooking information providing organization that sends information to the integrated management device 10 to an area where the power company or its house 1 is located. It is connected to a server 19 installed by an institution via a wide-area communication circuit network (referred to as “communication network” or “public communication network”) 18 such as the Internet. The “external organization” here is, for example, a broadcasting station that provides a broadcast program, a public organization that provides medical / health information, a private company, or the like, but may be other than these. These external organizations are not limited to one.

  Reference numeral 43 denotes an information communication terminal device, which is hereinafter simply referred to as a “terminal device”. The terminal device 43 is called a smartphone, a mobile terminal, or a tablet, and is a terminal device for information communication that is convenient for a person to carry. The terminal device 43 includes a communication unit 44 so as to be able to communicate with an unspecified number of people, a display unit 45 having an input screen capable of input operation (touch type or voice input type) to the terminal device, and the communication unit 44. And a control unit 46 for controlling the display unit 45. And this terminal device is owned by the user of the household electrical appliance EE living in the house 1, and can be connected to the integrated management apparatus 10 from a remote location outside via a wide communication network (communication network) 18. Further, the following explanation is based on the assumption that the server 19 can be connected to an external organization.

  The terminal device 43 is connected to the integrated management apparatus 10 from the outside of the house 1 via the communication network 18 and can remotely control a part of the home appliance EE. The contents of the remote operation in this case differ depending on the home appliance EE. For example, in the case of the air conditioner 5, the cooling and heating operation start, operation stop, indoor basic target temperature (also referred to as set temperature), and operation time Length, operation start time and end time, and the like. That is, when a predetermined time comes, “reserved operation” for starting or stopping the air-conditioning operation can be set.

  The terminal device 43 can call the integrated management device 10 from the terminal device 43 to receive and check information indicating the driving status so that the terminal device 43 can check the driving status and the reserved driving status of the home appliance EE even in a remote place. That is, since the operation information of the home appliance EE is transmitted from the integrated management apparatus 10 to the predetermined server 19, the terminal device 43 can know the state of the home appliance EE by accessing the server 19. These will be described in detail later.

  FIG. 2 shows a configuration example of hardware to which the air discharge system, the home appliance integrated management apparatus, and the air quality improvement system of the first embodiment are applied. A single living space will be described below using a kitchen as an example.

  The air quality improving system according to the present invention is arranged on a ceiling (horizontal wall surface) 12, and is an air purifier 7 for purifying indoor air, a heating cooker 8 for cooking arranged in a kitchen, A range hood (a type of exhaust device 9) 26, an air conditioner 5, and an integrated management device 10 that are arranged directly above the heating cooker 8 are configured. The integrated management apparatus 10 is necessary to connect these home appliances EE by wireless communication and to perform a cooperative operation.

  The range hood 26 has an exhaust port 27 above it, and one end of a duct 28 communicating with the outdoors is connected to the exhaust port 27. Reference numeral 29 denotes a hood whose entire lower surface is opened as a suction port 31, and an electric fan 26 </ b> F for exhaust is installed inside the hood. In addition, although this range hood 26 is being fixed to the ceiling (horizontal wall surface) 12, description is abbreviate | omitted about a detailed structure.

  The operation status of the range hood 26 is transmitted to the control device 22 (described in detail later) of the integrated management device 10 as needed. Therefore, a transmission unit (not shown) that transmits various operation information such as start and stop of the exhaust operation and operation intensity (exhaust capacity level) to and from the integrated management device 10 inside the range hood 26. And a receiving unit (not shown). For example, the transmission unit and the reception unit are integrated in hardware and provided as the communication unit 30. The communication unit exchanges information with the integrated management apparatus 10 by wireless communication or infrared communication.

  When the electric fan 26F is rotationally driven, air is sucked from the suction port of the range hood 26, and odors and smoke during cooking are sucked and exhausted to the outside through the duct 28. In addition, the range hood 26 is a system which receives driving | operation signals, such as an infrared signal, from the heating-cooker 8 side, and starts a driving | operation.

  You may arrange | position a heat | fever detection sensor (thermoelectromotive force element) in the exhaust apparatus 9 toward the direction of the heating cooker 8. FIG. According to this configuration, the exhaust device 9 itself senses the start of operation of the heating cooker 8 and controls the operation of the electric fan 26F.

  The ceiling-mounted air purifier 7 is installed in a manner embedded in the living space 3 ceiling (horizontal wall surface) 12. Inside the box-type main body 7A of the air cleaner 7, a blower fan 7F and a filter 33 are provided.

  Reference numeral 32 denotes an air guide plate that covers the entire lower portion of the air purifier 7. Reference numeral 34 </ b> A denotes a suction port formed at one end (side close to the range hood 26) by the air guide plate 32. Reference numeral 34 </ b> B denotes an air outlet formed at the end opposite to the inlet 34 </ b> A by the air guide plate 32.

  The blower fan 7F sucks dirty air in the living space (kitchen) 3 from the suction port 34A, and discharges the purified air through the filter 33 toward the living space 3 from the air outlet 34B. In this way, dust and odors in the air are removed and indoor air is purified.

  Reference numeral 35 denotes an odor sensor of the air purifier 7 and is arranged so as to face the inlet portion of the suction port 34A. This detects the odor from the air taken into the air purifier 7 during operation, and detects the degree of air pollution. In addition, if the position of the odor sensor 35 is the air path on the suction port 34 </ b> A side and the front stage of the filter 33, there is no significant difference in the effect regardless of where it is disposed.

  The detection result of the odor sensor 35 is determined by the odor sensing unit (not shown) disposed inside the main body 7A of the air cleaner 7 and the odor intensity is determined. It is transmitted to the integrated environment detection unit 16 as needed. For this reason, inside the air cleaner 7, a transmission unit (not shown) that transmits various information such as the start / stop of the air cleaning operation, the determination result of the odor intensity, etc. with the integrated management device 10. And a receiving unit (not shown). For example, the transmission unit and the reception unit are integrated in hardware and provided as the communication unit 31. The communication unit 31 exchanges information with the integrated management apparatus 10 by wireless communication or infrared communication.

  The air purifier 7 can detect the odor when the air purifier 7 is in operation, and the odor generated at some place in the living space 3 has reached the air purifier 7 from the place where it occurred. Is the time.

  By the way, this air purifier 7 is generally configured to include one or a plurality of (multiple layers) filters 33 having fine air passages in order to capture dust, pollen and the like in the air. . Therefore, when oil smoke generated in oil cooking is filtered, oil particles adhere to the surface of the filter 33, and the oil particles are combined to form an oil film, so that the filtration performance of the filter 33 is deteriorated. That is, the amount of air passing through the filter 33 is reduced, and the air purifying capability of the air cleaner 7 is reduced. In view of this, an idea of avoiding the operation of the air purifier 7 as much as possible has already been proposed when the smoke generated by oil cooking is included in the exhaust gas generated by cooking (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2006-95126). . Therefore, in the first embodiment, this idea is further developed, and details will be described later.

  Next, FIG. 3 will be described. FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing the relationship between the integrated management apparatus 10 and the home appliance EE. In addition, since it demonstrated previously that the integrated management apparatus 10 may serve as an electric power command apparatus seeing from the household appliance EE side, it is not demonstrated here.

  In FIG. 3, the main body 10 </ b> A of the integrated management apparatus 10 includes a person detection unit 21 that receives the detection output of the person detection sensor 20, the temperature and humidity measured from the composite sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14, wirelessly or electrically. The integrated environment detection part 16 and the input part 24 which receive with a signal are provided. The integrated environment detection unit 16 also receives detection results from the pollen sensor 41, the PM2.5 sensor 42, and the like as data in a predetermined format.

  When the input unit 24 operates a touch input type key formed on the liquid crystal display screen, the input unit 24 specifies the home appliance EE for setting the upper limit value of power consumption, and then the upper limit value of power consumption and the usable time zone Etc. can also be set. For example, the user can input the maximum power consumption of the cooking device 8, for example, 3000 W.

  In FIG. 3, furthermore, in the main body 10 </ b> A of the integrated management device 10, wireless communication and infrared communication can be performed individually with the home appliances EE such as the heating cooker 8, the air purifier 7, the air conditioner 5, and the exhaust device 9. The communication unit (reception unit / transmission unit) 23, the control device 22 that controls the overall operation of the integrated management device 10, the daily power control history information of the home appliance EE and the daily information acquired by the integrated environment detection unit 16 And a storage device 25 that records information of a relatively large amount of data such as “environment information”. The storage device 25 is, for example, various semiconductor memories or HDDs. The control device 22 stores a microcomputer that is a core of information processing, a ROM and a RAM, and a computer program that defines various operations.

Next, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 will be described.
The heating cooker 8 according to the first embodiment is an induction heating cooker that is incorporated in the kitchen furniture 15 with a sink and uses a commercial power supply 200V.
15A is an installation opening formed in the kitchen furniture 2. The heating cooker 8 is supported by being placed on the mouth edge of the installation opening 15A. As shown in FIG. 5, the kitchen furniture 15 includes a water tank 52 that can temporarily store water from a water supply port 51.

  15B is an opening formed at a predetermined position of the kitchen furniture 15, and this opening is for exposing the front surface (the cover 71 side described later) forward when the cooking device 8 is incorporated. The sizes of the opening 15B and the installation port 15A have predetermined dimensions according to the standard.

  A normal method for incorporating the cooking device 8 into the kitchen furniture 2 is as shown in FIG. FIG. 17 is a schematic diagram showing an intermediate stage of the assembling work into the kitchen furniture 15. As shown in this figure, the main body case 53 is inserted into the installation port 15A while being inclined so that the front side (front side) of the main body case 53 described later is downward, and then the rear side of the main body case 53 is When lowered, the cooking device 8 is placed on the peripheral edge of the installation opening 15A of the kitchen furniture 15. Therefore, in order to fix the state at the end, the screw is tightened and installed on the peripheral edge of the main body case 53. A fixed metal fitting (not shown) is moved (turned), and the installation is completed in a state where the fixed metal fitting is strongly pressed against the kitchen furniture 15. In addition, since such an installation method has already been widely adopted, the description of the detailed structure is omitted.

  As shown in FIG. 6, the heating cooker 8 includes a box-shaped main body case 53 that forms an outline of the main body 8 </ b> A, a metal frame-shaped outer frame 54 fixed to the upper portion, and the outer frame. A top plate 55 made of heat-resistant tempered glass is attached to the upper surface so as to cover substantially the entire upper surface. The top plate 55 is covered with a painted surface that does not allow visible light to pass through, so that a functional component below the top plate 55, for example, a right IH coil 60R, which will be described later, cannot be seen from above the top plate 55. It has become.

  The heating cooker 8 includes two induction heating units. One is a right IH coil (heating) installed below the induction heating unit (also referred to as “heating port”) disposed on the right side from the left / right center line CL1 (see FIG. 7) on the top plate 55. Source) There are 60R. This coil has a donut shape. The maximum heating power of the right IH coil 60R is 3000W. The maximum external dimension (diameter) RR is 210 mm.

  The other is a left induction heating coil 60L installed below the left and right center line CL1 (see FIG. 7) in accordance with an induction heating unit (also referred to as a “heating port”) arranged on the left side. It has a shape. The maximum heating power of the left heating coil 60L is 3000W. The maximum external dimension (diameter) RL is 210 mm. The right induction heating coil (heating source) 60R is hereinafter referred to as a “right IH coil”. The left induction heating coil (heating source) 60L is hereinafter referred to as a “left IH coil”.

  In order to indicate the positions of the right IH coil 60R and the left IH coil 60L as a guide, circular marks 61L and 61R are formed on the top plate 55 by printing. In FIGS. 4 and 6, the right mark 61R is not visible.

  The positions and sizes (diameter dimensions) of the circular marks 61R and 61L are determined according to the outer diameter dimensions of the left and right IH coils 60L and 60R. 7 and 8, the positions of the two IH coils 60L and 60R are indicated by circles. However, as described above, the non-permeable top plate 55 is actually on the upper side. The IH coils 60L and 60R cannot be visually observed. Further, one or two of the two IH coils 61R and 61L may be replaced with a radiant electric heat source such as a radiant heater or an infrared heater.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the left and right IH coils 60L and 60R are arranged symmetrically with respect to the center line CL1.

  4, 6, 7, and 9, reference numeral 62 denotes a cooking utensil (first cooking utensil) having an elliptical or rectangular planar shape, which is shown in detail in FIGS. 6, 11, and 15. Thus, it is comprised from the plate part 63 made from magnetic metals, such as stainless steel and iron, and the cover body 64 made from transparent heat-resistant glass which covers the upper part of this plate part. 65 is a knob for the user to carry the lid 64. Reference numeral 66 denotes a handle formed integrally with both ends of the dish portion 63.

  A rectangular shape indicated by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 7 indicates a range of the bottom surface of the dish part 63, and does not indicate an outer shape of the dish part 63. In other words, the minor axis dimension of the bottom surface of the plate portion 63 is as indicated by the symbol SS in FIG. Further, the major axis dimension of the bottom surface of the plate portion 9A is as indicated by the symbol LS in FIG. The first cooking utensil 62 is manufactured exclusively for the cooking device 8 (by the manufacturer of the cooking device).

A main body case 53 formed of a thin metal plate is provided to constitute other surfaces except the upper surface of the heating cooker 8.
As shown in FIG. 9, the main body case 53 has a body 53U formed by bending a thin metal plate with a press device into a U-shaped cross section, and a front portion connected to the front side of the body by welding or screwing. A main body case having an entire upper surface is constituted by the plate 53F and the rear plate 53H joined to the rear side of the body portion by welding or screwing. The top plate 55 covers the upper surface opening. The trunk portion 53U includes three parts, that is, a left side surface portion 53L, a right side surface portion 53R, and a bottom surface portion 53B that connects the two in series (see FIG. 10).

  Although the rear plate 53H (see FIG. 9) may be formed by bending a single metal thin plate, it is usually formed by joining two or three thin plates together by welding or screwing. 53J is an inclination formed so that the rear plate 53H does not hit the kitchen furniture 15 (on the rear plate 3H) when the cooking device 8 is inserted into the installation port 15A as described later (see FIG. 17). It is a face part.

  In FIG. 6, reference numeral 58 denotes an intake port through which a later-described blower BM1 introduces air from the outside of the main body case 53. Is formed. Note that the air introduced into the intake port is introduced from a gap GPU described later. That is, fresh air in the living space 3 is sucked into the first blower BM1 via the gap GPU (see FIG. 14) and finally discharged from the exhaust port 77 to the living space 3 again.

  In FIG. 6, reference numeral 70 denotes a storage chamber which is one of the feature points of this embodiment. The storage chamber 70 is defined in the main body case 53. Here, “partition formation” refers to a physical object (such as a plate or a wall) between the storage chamber 70 and the room of the cooling unit CU (see FIG. 10) in the lower space 112 described later. (It is made of metal or plastic etc.) and the air flow is not allowed by design.

  In FIG. 6, reference numeral 71 denotes a cover (door) for closing the front opening of the storage chamber 70 so as to be openable and closable, to which a tray 72 described later is connected. Reference numeral 73 denotes an insertion opening which is covered with a cover 71 so as to be freely opened and closed, and articles can be put into and taken out of the storage chamber 70 through this insertion opening.

  Since the outer shape of the first cooking utensil 62 has a simple structure in which handles 66 are integrally provided at both ends of the dish portion 63, the case where the first cooking utensil 62 is stored in the storage chamber 70 from the insertion port 73 is reversed. Even when taking out through the insertion port 73, the user can move the plate part 63 and the lid 64 in a lump, which is convenient.

  If the handle 66 is provided at the uppermost part of the plate part 63 as shown in FIG. 6, the interval from the upper surface of the top plate 15 can be increased. That is, since the distance from the two IH coils 60L and 60R below the top plate 15 is increased, the induction heating of the handle 66 can be suppressed. The handle 66 is preferably located at a position 5 cm or more away from the bottom surface of the plate portion 63 (the surface close to the top surface of the top plate 15). However, if the handle 66 is too far away, the maximum height dimension of the plate portion 63 increases accordingly. The height dimensions of the storage chamber 70 and the insertion port 73 must be increased.

  In FIG. 7, reference numeral 90 denotes a cooking utensil (second cooking utensil) having a circular planar shape, which is a large-sized pan made of metal (at least the bottom surface is made of magnetic metal) that is generally commercially available. In addition, the pot whose diameter of a pot bottom is smaller than the 1st cooking utensil 62 or the 2nd cooking utensil 90 can also be used.

  In FIG. 14, the gap GPU is a gap formed between the lower surface of the cover 71 and the upper surface of the furniture surface material 80. The gap is formed with a size of about 2 cm to several millimeters (mm) in order to allow movement of the cover 71.

  Since this gap GPU is also communicated with a later-described gap BS1 (see FIG. 13), the first blower BM1 can introduce air from the gap GPU on the front side. Since this air gap is used for intake, it is possible to omit the installation of the intake port on the upper surface of the main body case 53, so that it is expected to improve the design of the upper surface. Further, it is possible to prevent inhalation of steam, oily smoke and the like generated above the top plate 55. In FIG. 14, the GPT is formed to allow the movement of the cover 71 between the top surface of the handle 75 at the top of the cover 71 and the lower surface of the opening 15 </ b> B in the front surface of the kitchen furniture 15. The gap is about 2 cm to several millimeters (mm).

  In FIG. 6, reference numeral 77 denotes two exhaust ports formed in the rear outer frame 54 fixed to the main body case 53 a little apart in the left-right direction. Reference numeral 78 denotes two exhaust covers placed on the exhaust port 77. As shown in FIG. 12, the exhaust cover has a cross-sectional shape that is curved so that the roof becomes higher as it goes rearward, and the exhaust flow can be changed rearward. The exhaust cover 78 has a width dimension that covers the entire exhaust port 77 and is detachably fixed to the outer frame 54.

  In FIG. 6, reference numeral 84 denotes a right cover having a square front shape, and the whole is formed by integral molding of plastic. This right cover covers the right side portion of the front surface of the main body case 53 from the insertion port 73 of the storage chamber 70. The right cover has the same thickness as the cover 71 and is fixed to the front wall surface 53 </ b> F of the main body case 53 so as to be adjacent to the right side of the cover 71. The right cover 84 and the cover 30 have the same height, and the surface colors of both are the same. In addition, in FIG. 8, the external shape of the cover 71 and the right cover 84 is shown with the broken line for reference. In FIG. 8, WD1 indicates the width of the cover 71, which is set larger than the width of the insertion port 73, in other words, the size of the front.

  3, 5, and 6, the color and surface form (pattern, glossiness, unevenness, etc.) of the front surfaces 71 </ b> F and 84 </ b> F of the cover 71 and the right cover 84 constitute the front surface of the kitchen furniture 15. When combined with the color and surface form of the front surfaces of the furniture surface materials 80 and 81 to be performed, a unified design feeling is further enhanced. For example, if the entire front surface of the furniture surface materials 80 and 81 is unified in a single color or wood grain, the front surface 71F of the cover 71 and the front surface 84F of the right cover 84 should be unified in the same monochrome color or wood grain design. For example, only the front surfaces 71F and 84F do not stand out in the kitchen furniture 15. In addition, the presence of the cover 71 covering the insertion port 73 of the storage chamber 70 may be shown by changing the colors and patterns of the front surface of the cover 71 and the furniture surface materials 80 and 81.

  82 is a frame line printed on the front surface of the furniture surface material 80, 81, and does not form physical irregularities on the front surface of the furniture surface material 80, 81, but is a thin metallic thin plate It may be a high-quality one that is pasted.

  In FIG. 6, 109 shows the flow of the cooling air sucked into the intake port 58 of the heating cooker 8 when the heating cooker 8 is installed in the kitchen furniture 15 and the first blower BM1 is operated. It is.

Next, FIGS. 7 and 8 will be described.
As is clear from FIG. 7, on the upper surface of the top plate 15, a wide area from the front of the exhaust cover 78 to the rear end of the operation unit 93 described later is a cooking area 92 used for induction heating cooking. . The meaning of the “heating area” does not mean that the entire area can be induction-heated by the IH coils 60L and 60R, but the first and second cooking utensils 62 and 90, etc. may be temporarily placed when not cooking. Or it can be placed for induction heating. AL indicates the length of the heating area 92 in the front-rear direction, that is, the depth dimension.

  As is clear from FIG. 7, the central portions of the two IH coils 60 </ b> L and 60 </ b> R are positioned immediately below the center line CL <b> 2 in the front-rear direction of the heating area 92. The installation heights of the two IH coils 60L and 60R are the same. In other words, they are arranged on the same horizontal plane below the top plate 15.

  In FIG. 7, the horizontally long rectangular portions indicated by broken lines are two exhaust ports 77. The width WB in the front-rear direction of the two exhaust ports 77 is unified to 30 mm or 40 mm, for example. In other words, the width WB in the front-rear direction of the right exhaust port 77 and the left exhaust port 77 is formed to be 30 mm or 40 mm.

In FIG. 7, WA <b> 1 is the width dimension of each of the two exhaust ports 77. For example, one dimension in the range of 200 mm to 250 mm.
As described above, the diameter RR of the right IH coil 60R is 210 mm, and the diameter RL of the left IH coil 60L is also 210 mm. WA2 is the distance between the coils measured with reference to the center point of the two IH coils. For example, WA2 is 300 mm.

WA3 is a width dimension (hereinafter referred to as “first dimension”) measured with reference to the outer edges of the two IH coils, for example, 510 mm.
WA4 is the maximum width dimension (hereinafter referred to as “second dimension”) from the right edge of the right exhaust port 77 to the left edge of the left exhaust port 77, and is, for example, 560 mm. This width dimension WA4 corresponds to about 93% or more of the maximum width dimension 598 mm (or 600 mm) of the top plate 55.

In FIG. 7, CU is a cooling unit that cools the internal space of the main body 8A.
The outer case 107 of the cooling unit is composed of an upper lid portion 115 (see FIG. 10) formed from an electrically insulating plastic material and a lower side portion 116 to be combined with the upper lid portion 115.
The lower side portion 116 is also formed from an electrically insulating plastic material. There is a large opening behind the cooling unit CU, and the first blower BM1 is arranged so as to be in close contact with the rear of the opening.

In FIGS. 7 and 9, 93 is an operation unit formed on the upper surface on the front side of the top plate 15, and uses the change in capacitance when the user touches it lightly with a finger or the like as described below. Various input keys that can be input are arranged in a straight line in the horizontal direction.
The operation unit 93 includes two components, a right operation unit 93R and a left operation unit 93L.

  In FIG. 7, reference numeral 94 denotes an operation button or operation key (touch input type) of the main power switch 95 that can be cut off from supplying the commercial power supply 160 (see FIG. 16) to the control device 143 to be described later.

The positions of the left IH coil 60L, the right IH coil 60R, and the storage chamber 70 will be described. As shown in FIG. 8, the storage chamber 70 is in a range on the left side of the right IH coil 60 </ b> R, avoiding a position directly below the right IH coil 60 </ b> R. In FIG. 8, the outer shape of the storage chamber 70 is indicated by a broken line.
This is mainly because the magnetic influence from the right IH coil 60R is reduced as much as possible and a space for isolating the cooling unit CU from the storage chamber 70 is necessary. Note that the cooling unit CU may be disposed on the left side, and the storage chamber 70 may be disposed on the right side of the left IH coil 60L while avoiding the position directly below the left IH coil 60L.

  Three touch-type input keys 96 are arranged on the right operation unit 93R. These input keys 96 are assigned one or more input functions. For example, the heating power (power consumption) during induction heating, induction heating time, induction heating pattern, and the like. The right operation unit 93R is for instructing the start and stop of the operation of the right IH coil 60R and other energization conditions (time, thermal power, etc.). You can also select the type of cooking. For example, any one of cooking menus such as a kettle, fried food, and boiled food can be selected.

In the first embodiment, the operating condition of the exhaust device 9 is determined according to the type of cooking (hereinafter referred to as “cooking type”). Since the type of cooking varies depending on the cooking menu (also referred to as “cooking mode”), an example of the “cooking menu” will be described as follows.
(Water heater)
In the water heater, when the control device 143 instructs the IH coil 60L to be applied to the (selected) IH coil 60L with the heating power (for example, 1 kW) set by the user in the operation unit 93, the temperature detection circuit 144 is heated. The temperature of (for example, a pan or the like) is measured and monitored at intervals of 1 second from below the top plate 55 by an infrared temperature sensor.
The control device 143 performs heating toward a preset target temperature (eg, 98 ° C.), and the latest temperature information transmitted from the temperature detection circuit 144 becomes the target temperature (eg, 98 ° C.). If it is determined that it has boiled, the energization to the IH coil 60L is stopped, and the voice synthesis notification unit 145 notifies the boiling.

  Next, the control device 143 repeats the stop and start of heating so that the latest temperature information acquired from the temperature detection circuit 144 becomes a heat retention temperature (for example, 95 ° C.) lower than the target temperature (S12). ). Alternatively, continuous energization is performed at a reduced heating power (for example, 100 W).

  In this way, when the user inputs a heating stop or heating power change command while maintaining the heat insulation temperature, the user exits the “water heating” mode and performs heating in the “normal heating” mode. . On the other hand, when a command from the user is not input and a certain time (for example, 10 minutes) has elapsed, heating is stopped and the speech synthesizer 145 notifies the end.

(Fried food cooking)
Fried food cooking (also called “fried food cooking mode”) is cooking performed by putting cooking oil in a heated container such as a metal pan. Usually, it is preferable to set the amount of oil to a predetermined amount or more and manage the temperature of the oil.

  The tray 72 is guided on both sides by the guide groove 123 by the sliding part 124 and the guide groove 123, and can be easily moved when a light operating force is applied in the front-rear direction.

  The tray 72 has a rectangular planar shape and a shallow container-like saucer shape. And it is formed from a metal or a plastic material. For example, an aluminum thin plate is formed by press molding. Since the depth dimension L1 of the tray 72 is about 1 cm smaller than the depth dimension L2 of the storage chamber 70, it can be completely stored inside the storage chamber 70 (see FIG. 14).

  When the tray 72 is pulled forward, the sliding component 124 can smoothly slide inside the guide groove 123, and the tray 72 can be smoothly pulled out with a light force. Similarly, when pushing backward, the tray 72 can be moved smoothly by the support plates 122L and 122R on the left and right.

  As shown in detail in FIG. 11, the pair of left and right support plates 122L, 122R are long in the front-rear direction below the right wall surface 70R and the left wall surface 70L of the storage chamber 70 (according to the depth dimension of the storage chamber 70).

  Since the step 72E of the tray 72 extends directly above the step 126 of the support plates 122L and 122R as shown in FIG. 11, even when the user pulls out the tray 72, the step 72E is provided on both sides of the tray 72. The support plates 122L and 122R are hardly visible. That is, the stepped portion 72E of the tray 72 makes it difficult to see the support plates 122L and 122R, which are mechanical structures, and improves the design.

  In FIG. 11, GPS is a space formed between the bottom surface of the tray 72 and the bottom wall 70 </ b> B of the storage chamber 70, and the height HP of this space is formed to be about 10 to 20 mm. If this gap is excessively large, the distance HS2 from the upper surface of the bottom wall 72B of the tray 72 to the lower surface of the ceiling wall 70T, that is, the effective height is lowered, and there is a concern that the storage capacity of the article is lowered. .

  The gap GPS is provided between the tray 72 and the bottom wall 70B so as to allow natural movement of air. Ribs 127 are integrally formed on the bottom wall 72B so that the mechanical strength of the tray 72 itself is increased and the tray 72 is kept flat. When adopting a configuration in which the air for cooling or drying is forced to flow using the gap GPS under the tray 72, the rib 127 may be used also as a guide plate for the air flow. good.

Next, FIG. 12 will be described.

That is, the rear end portion of the exhaust air passage 104 leading to the exhaust port 77 is disposed at the rear portion of the main body case 53, and the cooling air after cooling the IH coils 60L and 60R is directed upward at this end portion. A bent space portion 130A for changing the direction is formed. Since the cooling air that has traveled from the ventilation window 129 side hits the inner wall surface on the rear side of the water receiving portion 130, the direction of the cooling air is changed upward as shown in FIG.

Next, FIG. 13 will be described. FIG. 13 shows the overall configuration in a simplified manner. The two exhaust covers 78 are shown by broken lines instead of being shown by solid lines.
When the cover 71 is pulled forward, the tray 72 can be pulled forward from the storage chamber 70. However, it is preferable to limit the pull-out amount to a certain limit. Since the above-described first cooking utensil 62 is placed in the tray 72, a mechanism for preventing the tray 72 from dropping more than necessary and preventing the tray 72 from falling is provided. Not. However, it can be easily realized by providing a protrusion on the rear part of the tray 72 and providing a stopper on the inner side of the storage chamber 70 so that the protrusion hits when the tray 72 is pulled out to a certain limit position.

Reference numeral 157 denotes a passage secured between the lower surface of the main body 8 </ b> A of the cooking device 8 installed in the kitchen furniture 15 and the partition plate 140. The front end of this passage is via a gap GPU formed between the cover 71 and the furniture surface material 80 and a gap (not shown) formed between the right cover 84 and the furniture surface material 80. It is connected to the front side space of the heating cooker 8. The passage 157 is a passage through which cooling air is indicated by reference numeral 109 in FIG.

Next, FIG. 14 will be described.
A distance (depth dimension) L2 from the forefront edge of the insertion port 73 of the storage chamber 70 to the back wall 70H constituting the back surface of the storage chamber 70 is, for example, 30 cm. The depth dimension L2 is set larger than the maximum length of the first cooking utensil 62 including the handle 66, and the first cooking utensil 62 is inserted into the storage chamber 70 in the front-rear direction and stored. it can.

  Since the first cooking utensil 62 is the largest as an article that can be removably stored in the storage chamber 70, the size of the insertion port 73 is determined in consideration of the external dimensions of the cooking utensil 62. Other articles that can be stored in the storage room 70 include, for example, an instruction manual attached to the heating cooker 8 and a detergent that performs simple cleaning such as the top surface of the top plate 55 and the surface of the operation unit 93 after cooking. Alternatively, there is another cooking utensil 90 (including a lid attached to the cooking appliance 90).

  The distance (height dimension) HS1 from the upper surface of the bottom wall 70B of the storage chamber 70 to the lower surface of the ceiling wall 70T is sufficiently larger than the maximum height dimension of the entire cooking utensil 62 including the knob 65, for example, 10 cm. . Furthermore, the dimension from the insertion port 73 to the inner wall surface 70H is constant. The opening (width dimension) of the insertion port 73 is, for example, 15 cm. For this reason, the planar shape of the storage chamber 70 is elongated and rectangular from the insertion port 73 toward the rear.

  The size (width and height dimensions) of the insertion opening 73 of the storage chamber 70 is set so that the above-described dish portion 63 and lid 64 of the cooking utensil 62 can be inserted while being stacked. When storing by the user, there is no need to separate the lid 64 and the plate portion 63 or to change the vertical direction, which is convenient.

  As shown in FIG. 14, in the bottom surface portion 53 </ b> B of the main body case 53, the range in which the storage chamber 70 can be installed is a range of a predetermined length 53 </ b> K with respect to the front insertion port 73.

  In FIG. 14, BS1 is a space formed between the rear plate 53H and the back plate 15U of the kitchen furniture 15. A first blower BM1 to be described later sucks cooling air from this gap.

  In FIG. 14, reference numeral 133 denotes a sealing material attached to the front surface of the main body case 53 at a position directly above the insertion port 73. This sealing material is formed of a material having high elasticity such as made of silicon rubber, and when the insertion port 73 is closed by the cover 71, the tip is brought into contact with the back surface of the handle portion 75. Note that the sealing material 133 does not have to keep the insertion port 73 side of the storage chamber 70 completely airtight. That is, in the state in which the cover 71 is closed, the storage chamber 70 may have a gap (for example, a gap of about several mm) that allows air to flow between the edge of the insertion port 73 and the cover 71. .

  In FIG. 14, 71F has shown the front surface of the said cover 71, and when this heating cooker 8 is integrated in the kitchen furniture 15, this front surface is decorations, such as a door or drawer which exists adjacent to the lower side. The plate (furniture surface material) 80 is in a flush state. In other words, when the cooking device 8 is incorporated, the front surface 71F of the cover 71 is aligned with the front surface 80F of the furniture surface material 80 when viewed from directly above. The furniture surface material 80 and the cover 71 can present the user with a design sensation as if they were in a unified plane even when the kitchen furniture 15 is viewed from the front or obliquely from the front. The position of the front surface 84F of the right cover 84 is also matched with the position of the front surface 71F of the cover 71.

  In FIG. 14, US indicates the vertical distance of the passage 157 formed between the lower part of the main body case 53 and the partition plate 140 when the cooking device 8 is incorporated in the kitchen furniture 15. It is. Since the gap 157 communicates with the living space 3 through the gap GPU, when the first blower BM1 is operated, fresh air in the living space 3 passes through the gap GPU. Via, it is sucked by the heating cooker 8 and finally discharged from the exhaust port 77 to the living space 3 again.

Next, the control-related configuration of the heating cooker 1 will be described with reference to FIG.
A main power switch 95 is opened and closed by a user, and is connected to a 200 V commercial power supply 142 via a power plug (not shown). 94 is an operation key for a main power switch which is opened and closed by a user, 148 is a power circuit to which electric energy is supplied via the main power switch 95, and 143 is supplied with a predetermined constant pressure current from this power circuit. It is a control device mainly composed of a microcomputer.

  The microcomputer is composed of four parts: an input unit, an output unit, a storage unit, and a CPU (calculation control unit). In the storage unit, energization control programs corresponding to various cooking menus are stored in advance ( Stored). In addition to the microcomputer storage unit (ROM, RAM), a large-capacity storage device 143R for recording abnormality monitoring information is incorporated.

  During induction cooking, the controller 143 monitors whether there is an electrical abnormality. For this purpose, although not shown, the inverter circuit board 117 is provided with a plurality of voltmeters, ammeters (current sensors) and the like. Furthermore, the control device 143 obtains temperature information from the temperature detection circuit 144 and monitors whether or not the main part of the heating cooker 8 has an abnormally high temperature. For example, the operation unit 93 and the IH coils 60L and 60R are monitored through the temperature detection circuit 144 so as not to exceed a predetermined temperature, and when the temperature exceeds the predetermined temperature, the controller 143 determines that it is in an “abnormal reserve state”. Is done. Further, when the temperature exceeds a predetermined temperature (several degrees Celsius) from that temperature, the degree of danger increases, and the control device 143 recognizes that it is a true abnormal state.

  In the first embodiment, the “measurement object” of the temperature detection circuit 144 means an object to be cooked (foodstuff, cooking oil, etc.) placed in a heated container such as a pan, a metal pan, a pan, etc. A heated object (including the first cooking utensil 62) and a top plate 55 are included.

  In this abnormal preparatory state, the heating operation is not immediately stopped, but is improved by increasing the blowing capacity of the first blower BM1 that cools the internal space of the main body case 53. However, if the temperature further rises, an abnormal state is determined at that time by the control device 143, and the heating operation is immediately stopped. For example, an inverter circuit that supplies high-frequency power to the right IH coil 60R that is performing the heating operation. The power supply of 120R is cut off.

  And information (abnormality monitoring) information indicating an electrical and physical change state of the main part of the cooking device 8 at least from such an abnormal preliminary state to an emergency stop is stored in the storage unit 143R of the control device 143. Stored inside. The abnormality monitoring information stored in the storage unit 143R starts to be acquired from the time when the main power switch 95 is turned on, and reflects the history of electrical and physical changes until cooking is stopped. Therefore, the cooking menu selected thereafter (for example, “boiled water”, “boiled”, “fried food”, etc.) and information on the heating power of induction heating are also recorded in time series. If an emergency stop occurs due to an abnormal condition on the way, the abnormality monitoring information is stored in the storage device 143R until that time.

The inverter circuit board 117 includes two inverter circuits 120L and 120R one by one.
The inverter circuit 120L is for supplying a high-frequency current to the left IH coil 60L, and is connected to a known resonance circuit to which a resonance capacitor or the like is connected.

  120R is an inverter circuit for supplying a high frequency current to the right IH coil 60R. The two inverter circuits 120L and 120R are driven independently from each other by the control device 143.

Reference numeral 144 denotes the temperature detection circuit described above. This temperature detection circuit is connected to a plurality of temperature sensors (not shown).
The temperature detection circuit 144 includes the temperature of the first cooking utensil 62 on the top plate 55 heated by the two IH coils 60L and 60R, the temperature of the top plate 55, the atmospheric temperature of the upper space 113, and the inverter circuit 120L. , 120R, the temperature of the display screen 91, etc. are detected. Then, these temperature detection results are transmitted to the control device 143 as temperature detection information as needed. The temperature sensor (not shown) may be either a non-contact type such as an infrared sensor or a contact type such as a thermistor, and these are used alone or in combination.

  Reference numeral 147 denotes a clock circuit also called a real time clock, which is supplied with power from a dedicated power source (built-in battery) BT1 different from a power circuit 148 connected to a main power switch 95 described later, and is driven for a long period of time. It has come to be. This may be, for example, a radio-controlled timepiece. If there is always a request from the control device 143, the current date and the exact time are notified in seconds, and are set to the correct date and time in the manufacturing stage of the cooking device 8. . Therefore, even if the main power of the cooking device 1 is turned off and then turned on again, the time information of the clock circuit is not affected and there is a function of always transmitting the latest correct time to the control device 143. For this reason, the abnormality monitoring information recorded in the storage device 143R of the control device 143 is always recorded and stored at the same time.

  Reference numeral 156 denotes a vibration sensing device for detecting a shake when an earthquake occurs. When a predetermined seismic intensity (acceleration) or more is detected, a vibration detection signal is sent to the control device 143, and the control device 143 receives the signal to generate an earthquake. It is determined that the power is generated, and an operation of instantaneously shutting off the power supplies of all the IH coils 60L and 60R in use is performed.

  Reference numeral 150 denotes wireless communication means. This wireless communication means may be built in the main body case 53 of the heating cooker 8 or may be connected to the power supply circuit 148 of the heating cooker 8 in the adapter form described later. Adopting an adapter format.

The “adapter” refers to a control device provided between an individual home appliance such as the heating cooker 8 and its power source. For example, the adapter here refers to an adapter as disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-205821 and Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2011-55623. (In this Embodiment 1, the heating cooker 8) is connected.
When the power command signal is received by the adapter through wireless communication, the power supply of the home appliance (heating cooker 8) to be controlled is limited or cut off. In this way, an adapter is connected to an existing home appliance (heating cooker 8), and a power command signal is sent to the adapter from a power control device (not shown) that limits the total amount of power in the home. Since the adapter controls the heating cooker 8, power consumption can be centrally controlled by the power command device 10 by interposing the adapter in the existing heating cooker 8 on the power supply side.

  As shown in FIG. 7, the operation unit 93 has an input key 98. When the input key 98 is touched, the control device 143 is connected to the integrated management device 10 via the wireless communication means 150, and is connected to the communication circuit network 18 in the external space of the house 1 via the integrated management device 10. Information useful for use of the first cooking utensil 62 is acquired from the server 19 connected to an external organization such as an information provider. The acquired information is stored in the storage device 143R. The acquired information is displayed on the display screen 91, or in addition to this display, the voice synthesizer 145 notifies the speaker 146 by voice.

  In FIG. 16, reference numeral 148 denotes a drive circuit for driving the display screen 91. This drive circuit is connected to the control device 143. Although not shown, the drive circuit 148 includes a display memory, a display controller, an interface, a power supply circuit, a common driver, and a segment driver.

In FIG. 16, reference numeral 151 denotes a drive circuit for driving the motor 152 of the first blower BM1, and the operation is controlled by the control device 143.
Reference numeral 155 denotes a transmission unit whose transmission is controlled by the control device 143, and transmits an infrared signal. The infrared signal is a command signal including various operation information for the exhaust device 9. For example, 01 for heating operation, 02 for cooking oil in the cooking menu, 03 for water heater, 04 for stopping heating operation, 05 for large heating power (operating strength), and medium exhausting strength The “medium driving mode” includes 06, and the “weak driving mode” which means “weak (small)” of the driving intensity includes 07, and includes an individual identification code. A code indicating the length of the cooking time may be included. For example, a cooking time of 30 minutes is specified by a code such as 30, and 45 minutes is specified by a code such as 45. However, in this case, a timepiece function such as a timepiece circuit is required on the exhaust device 9 side.
Reference numeral 154 denotes an infrared light emitting element that emits a signal.

Since it is the above structure, heating cooking operation | movement is demonstrated next.
The control-related configuration of the cooking device 8 will be described with reference to FIG.
First, when the user turns on the main power switch 95, electric energy is supplied to the power circuit 148 via the main power switch. A predetermined constant pressure current is supplied from the power supply circuit, and the control device 143 is activated.

  The control device 143 activates the temperature detection circuit 144, the speech synthesizer 145, and the display unit drive circuit 148, and when an abnormal temperature state is not detected by the temperature detection circuit and when an abnormal voltage or current is not detected. Completes the self-checking operation at startup. The fact that cooking can be started is displayed on the display screen 91, and the speech synthesizer 145 notifies through the speaker 146.

  Therefore, the cover 71 of the storage chamber 70 is pulled out, the first cooking utensil 62 is taken out, and placed at a position just above the left IH coil 60L, for example, as shown in FIG. In addition, although the 1st cooking utensil 62 can be utilized for induction heating cooking only by the plate | plate part 63, the direction using the cover body 64 simultaneously does not scatter a to-be-cooked object (for example, fish, meat, etc.), and hot air Does not escape, heating efficiency is improved.

  When the reed switch 132 constituting a part of the safety device SD is opened (OFF) after the control device 143 completes the self-checking operation at the time of startup, the receiving tray 71 is the predetermined innermost part of the storage chamber 70. It is determined that it is drawn from the position. Thereafter, it is detected whether an object to be heated (including the first cooking utensil 62) such as a metal pan is placed on one of the two IH coils 60L and 60R (such a detection method). Since various methods have already been proposed, detailed explanation is omitted).

When the control device 143 detects that the first cooking utensil 62 is on the left IH coil 60L or the right IH coil 60R, the control device 143 sets the cooking conditions on the operation unit 93 on the display screen 91 and the voice synthesizer 145. Encourage the user to input from
When the first cooking utensil 62 is placed on the left IH coil 60L, the heat input, the heating time, etc. are input using the three input keys 97 on the left operation unit 93L. If a heating start command is input at one of 97, the inverter circuit 120L is driven by the control device 143, and (induction) heating cooking is performed.

  When the input key 98 in the operation unit 93 is touched before, during, or after such induction heating cooking, the control device 143 is connected to the integrated management device via the wireless communication means 150. 10 is connected to the communication network 18, and information useful for using the first cooking utensil 62 is acquired from the server 19 in real time. The acquired information is stored in the storage device 143 R, while the display screen 91. Or in addition to this display, the voice synthesizer 145 informs the speaker 146 by voice, so that the user can use useful information outside when using the first cooking utensil 62. Convenient. For example, when grilling fish, it is possible to know the heating power of the heating coil 8L.

  During execution of such cooking, the user can stop the heating operation at an arbitrary timing, but the stop command can be issued by one of the input keys 97. In an emergency, the automatic stop can be easily performed by pressing the operation key 94 of the main power switch 95.

  As shown in FIG. 13, the first cooking utensil 62 that has finished cooking is withdrawing the cover 71 of the storage chamber 70 forward, pulling the tray 72 forward from the storage chamber 70, and then What is necessary is just to mount the 1st cooking appliance 62 on top. Even if the first cooking utensil 62 is still immediately after cooking and the temperature is high, the tray 72 is made of metal or heat-resistant plastic, so there is no problem.

  When the reed switch 132 that constitutes a part of the safety device SD is turned on, the control device 143 detects that the tray 72 has been returned to a predetermined position at the back of the storage chamber 70. This state is also a state in which the cover 71 closes the insertion port 73. Therefore, since the storage chamber 70 has returned to the closed space where there is no air communication with the outside, as described above, the internal atmosphere of the storage chamber 70 is influenced by the high-temperature first cooking utensil 62. It is assumed that the temperature will rise. However, in the first embodiment, the storage chamber 70 is designed in consideration of such a temperature rise, and the outer temperature of the main body case 53 and the surface temperature of the cover 71 are not raised to a predetermined temperature or higher. In practice, it is difficult to assume that the first cooking utensil 62 used for cooking and soiled due to the adhesion of food, seasonings, or the like is stored in the storage room 70 as it is immediately after use. Actually, the first cooking utensil 62 is stored in the storage room 70 after cleaning and washing once and cooling.

  As one of the measures for suppressing the temperature rise in the internal atmosphere of the storage chamber 70, vent holes may be provided on the back surface, ceiling surface, or the like of the storage chamber 70 so that the storage chamber 70 communicates with the upper space 113 or the exhaust port 77. . In that case, if the air is further actively cooled, a part of the cooling air of the first blower BM is introduced into the storage chamber 70 and discharged from the storage chamber 70, and finally the hot air in the storage chamber 70 is exhausted. However, in the same manner as the exhaust flow from the exhaust port 77 (see FIG. 13), it may be discharged from the main body case 53 to the outside.

  In the above description, it was a case where cooking was performed using the first cooking utensil 62, but cooking is also performed using other cooking utensils such as a metal pan or a frying pan, that is, the second cooking utensil 90 described above. Is possible.

  Next, the operation of the control device 143 when the confirmation command touch input key 99 for requesting the presence result of the first cooking utensil 62 is operated with respect to the control device 143 will be described. When the input key 99 is operated, the control device 143 detects whether or not the first cooking utensil 62 is inside the storage chamber 70. For this purpose, the storage room 70 has a sensor for discriminating between the presence and absence of the first cooking utensil 62, for example, the presence of the first cooking utensil 62 at a predetermined position on the tray 72. Alternatively, a sensor that detects optically or by weight is provided separately.

  When the reed switch 132 detects that the cover 71 is opened and then closed, it determines a change in magnetic, optical, or weight (weight including the tray 72) before and after opening. Thus, the presence of the first cooking utensil 62 that is relatively heavy (for example, 300 g or more) is detected. When there is the first cooking utensil 62, immediately after the input key 99 is operated, the presence or absence of the cooking utensil 62 is displayed on the display screen 91 or notified by the voice synthesizer 145. For example, even when another cooking is performed on the right IH coil 60R, the cooking state is interrupted because the storage state of the first cooking utensil 62 can be confirmed immediately without pulling the cover 71 forward. This is convenient for the user.

Next, the flow of the cooling air by the first blower BM1 will be described with reference to FIGS.
When the inverter circuit 120L is driven by the control device 143 and cooking is performed, the control device 143 activates the motor drive circuit 151 in synchronization with this, and rotationally drives the motor 152 of the first blower BM1.

Then, the first blower BM1 generates an intake air flow from the outside of the heating cooker 8 (in FIG. 6) as indicated by an arrow 109 from a large number of intake ports 58 provided at the rear of the main body case 53.
For this reason, fresh air in the living space 3 is sucked from the gap GPU formed below the decorative plate 84 to the first blower BM1 through the gap GPU. In addition, since it is set as the form which inhales using the space | gap GPU in this way, installing an inlet in the upper surface of the main body case 53 can be omitted, and it is expected to improve the design of the upper surface of the cooking device 8. it can.

  Fresh air outside the main body case 53 is sucked from the suction port of the first blower BM1 and is forcibly sent into the cooling unit CU. Since the air that has been sent flows through the surface of the inverter circuit board 117 in the process of proceeding from the rear to the front inside the cooling unit CU (outer case 107), the aluminum on which the circuit element 117 that generates heat by power control is mounted. While cooling the heat-radiating fins 118, it reaches the opening 101 on the ceiling surface of the cooling unit CU.

  Then, the cooling air is directed from the opening 101 to the right IH coil 60R immediately above it. Then, it collides with the right IH coil 60R in the upper space 113 and takes away its heat. And the air after cooling turns 180 degree | times back, and goes to the exhaust port 77 in the back. Finally, as shown by an arrow 111 </ b> R in FIG. 8, the air passes through the exhaust port 77 from the right ventilation window 129 and is discharged to the outside of the heating cooker 8.

  On the other hand, the remaining cooling air that has advanced to the front of the cooling unit CU is blown upward from the opening 102 formed in the ceiling surface of the front end of the cooling unit, and toward the left side as indicated by an arrow 110 in FIG. Proceeds and collides with left IH coil 8R to take away its heat. This prevents the IH coil 60L from being overheated. Even when the left IH coil 60L is not driven and heated, such cooling air is continuously supplied during cooking.

  Further, the cooling air after cooling the left IH 60L also proceeds backward from the periphery of the left IH coil 60L as shown by an arrow 111L in FIG. 8, and finally blows out into the living space 3 from the exhaust port 77. It will be.

  As shown in FIG. 12, the left coil 60L and the right coil 60R are cooled and the air reaching the ventilation window 129 is temporarily turned upward from the horizontal direction and formed below the exhaust cover 78. Be guided by a gently curved surface. Then, as indicated by an arrow 111L, the exhaust cover 78 is discharged obliquely upward from the rear end edge 128. In other words, it is blown out in the direction of the vertical wall 11 of the kitchen or the like constituting the living space 3, but this exhaust flow contains smoke and smell after roasting foods such as meat and fish as in the past. Since it is not a thing, it does not attach the oily smoke or the burnt smell of food to the vertical wall 11.

Next, it will be described that the temperature rise of the storage chamber 70 is suppressed by the air flow from the first blower BM1 as described above.
Normally, the IH coils 60L and 60R are provided with a magnetic flux leakage prevention means called a magnetic shielding ring around the coil base 69 that supports them, but the ceiling wall 70T of the storage chamber 70 directly under the left IH coil 60L There is a concern that the temperature rises due to the influence of the left IH coil 60L that is induction-heated at a position directly above. In particular, when the inverter circuit 120L is driven with a 200V power source and heated with a particularly large heating power (eg, 3000 W), it is strongly affected by the high-frequency magnetic field down to the lower side of the left IH coil 60L. For example, the ceiling wall 70T is also heated. Further, when the temperature of the horizontal partition plate 100 rises, there is a concern that the storage chamber 70 to which the ceiling wall 70T is approaching via the gap SP2 may also be indirectly heated.

  Therefore, in the first embodiment, a gap SP1 (see FIG. 13) is provided between the left IH coil 60L and the horizontal partition plate 100, and the heat insulation from the horizontal partition plate 100 to the storage chamber 70 side by this gap. Decided to improve. According to this configuration, since the cooling air flows through the entire lower side of the left induction coil 60L, an increase in the temperature of the horizontal partition plate 100 is suppressed.

  By the way, the cooling air supplied from the cooling unit CU to the lower side of the left IH coil 60L cools the inverter circuit 120L (when only the left IH coil 60L is induction-heated, only the inverter circuit 120L is driven. However, since the room temperature of the air is raised by about several degrees C. to about 10 degrees C., the hot air has not yet been reached even when it reaches the position just below the left IH coil 60L. For this reason, the effect which suppresses the temperature rise of the horizontal partition plate 100 can be expected.

  In the first embodiment, the first blower BM1 has a predetermined time (for example, several minutes to 10 minutes) after the drive of either one or both of the two inverter circuits 120L and 120R is stopped by the control device 143. The control program of the control device 143 is set so that the operation is continued.

  Even after a certain period of time has elapsed since the heating operation of the IH coils 60L and 60R was stopped, a plurality of temperature sensors (not shown) that transmit the temperature measurement result to the temperature detection circuit 144 have the ambient temperature inside the cooling unit CU. The internal components (including the display screen 91) of the upper space 113 above the horizontal partition plate 100, the temperature of the top plate 55, and the like are individually measured. The controller 143 issues a drive command to the drive circuit 151 of the first blower BM1 until the temperature detection circuit 144 does not determine that the temperature has fallen to a predetermined temperature, and therefore the inverter circuit 120L. Even after the driving of 120R is stopped, the cooling by the first blower BM1 is continued until the temperature of the upper space 113 is sufficiently lowered.

  The first blower BM1 may automatically switch to energy saving operation by reducing the rotational speed of the motor 76 after the inverter circuits 120L and 120R are stopped. Further, there are cases where the predetermined rotational speed is maintained and the exhaust flow from the exhaust port 77 is maintained. This will be described later.

  Next, the significance of the gap SP2 formed between the horizontal partition plate 100 and the storage chamber 70 will be described. Since the gap SP2 is set so that the distance from the left IH coil 8L is at least 5 cm, preferably 6 cm or more, the upper wall surface 70T has a magnetic influence from the left IH coil 60L. I hardly get it. For this reason, there is no concern that the storage chamber 70 itself is induction-heated, and even if metal accessories, pans, or the like are stored inside the storage chamber 70, there is no concern that they may be induction-heated. Therefore, even if a metal article and a glass container or the like containing a seasoning that should avoid an increase in temperature are mixed inside the storage room 70, the seasoning or the like is deteriorated or altered. Can be avoided.

(Basic operation of the cooking device 8)
Next, the heating operation of the heating cooker 8 will be described with reference to FIGS.
The flowchart shown in FIG. 18 shows basic operation steps of the cooking device 8.
First, the user presses the push button 94 of the main power switch 95 to turn on the main power (S1). Then, power is applied to the control device 143 via the power supply circuit 148, and the control device 143 obtains temperature information from the temperature detection circuit 144 and determines whether or not the main part of the cooker has an abnormally high temperature. Self-check (S2).
In this step, an operation information signal L1 is transmitted to the integrated management apparatus 10 that also serves as the power command apparatus. The transmission is performed from the wireless communication unit 150.

  If no abnormality is found, the control device 143 activates the display unit drive circuit 148 of the display screen 91. The display screen 91 displays that the cooking menu can be selected and cooking can be started. At the same time, the speech synthesizer 145 notifies the content similar to the content displayed on the display screen 91 by voice (S3).

  Thereafter, on the display screen 91, an object to be heated such as a metal pan is placed above either of the left and right IH coils 60L and 60R, and characters prompting the user to select a cooking menu are displayed (S4).

  In this state, for example, when the user touches a specific one of the three input keys 96 of the right operation unit 93R, the cooking menu is selected. In step S5, it is checked whether or not the input key 96 has been operated on the right operation unit 93R (S5). If this step is “Yes”, the process proceeds to step S7 to the operation information signal to the integrated management device 10. Send L2R. The transmission is performed from the wireless communication unit 150. And it progresses to menu selection step S9 of the heat cooking by the right IH coil 60R.

If step S5 is “No”, the process proceeds to step S6, and in step S6, it is checked whether or not the input key 97 has been operated on the left operation unit 93L.
When this step S6 is "Yes", it progresses to step S8 and transmits the driving information signal L2L to the integrated management apparatus 10. The transmission is performed from the wireless communication unit 150. And it progresses to menu selection step S10 of the heat cooking by the left IH coil 60L.

   Next, it is assumed that cooking by the left IH coil 60L is selected in step S6 in the left operation unit 93L and will be described below.

  FIG. 19 is a flowchart of the control device 143 showing the menu selection process for cooking, and is defined by the operation program of the microcomputer that constitutes the core of the control device 143.

  First, the cooking menu is displayed as characters (including pictograms) on the display screen 91 (S11). In this case, four types of “boiled water”, “boiled”, “fried food”, and “boiled” are displayed. Among them, “fried food” is cooking using edible oil from the beginning, and is distinguished from the other three. The reason for this will be explained later.

  When the cooking menu is displayed, the input key 97 is operated to select only one of “boiled water”, “boiled”, “fried food”, “fried food”, and “boiled”. It becomes.

  Next, the control device 143 displays only the selected cooking menu on the display screen and notifies the voice synthesis device 145 by voice that the cooking menu is confirmed. In addition, the selection result of the cooking menu is notified to the integrated management device 10 by transmitting an operation information signal L3 (S13). The transmission is performed from the wireless communication unit 150.

By the way, in step S13, the control device 143 transmits information including the cooking menu included in the operation information signal, or transmits it immediately after the transmission.
In this embodiment, a specific code of “001” for “fried food”, “002” for “boiled water”, “003” for “boiled”, and “004” for “boiled” is transmitted from the transmitting unit 150. On the device 9 side, it can be deciphered that it is fried food cooking. This is preferable when the communication regulations between the exhaust device 9 and the heating cooker 8 are matched in advance (in many cases, manufactured by the same manufacturer). However, when the kitchen furniture 15 is installed, a conformance test is first performed between the exhaust device 9 and the heating cooker 8, and the installer adjusts according to the manufacturer's installation work manual and the like so as to perform a cooperative operation. That's fine. Alternatively, if the exhaust device 9 and the heating cooker 8 are designed according to one standard, it is possible to easily determine the contents of the cooking menu as described above.

  In addition, the exhaust apparatus 9 may not have the function to determine whether it is fried food cooking as mentioned above. What is necessary is just to be able to identify information specifying the exhaust air volume from the heating cooker 8 side.

  In the next step S14, the control device 143 waits for the arrival of a “permission signal” that permits execution of the selected cooking menu. Since the integrated management device 10 also serves as a “power command device” for the cooking device 8, the integrated management device 10 calculates the maximum power consumption permitted for use in the house 1. That is, the power consumption when the selected cooking menu is executed by the power consumption of the other electric equipment EE that is the power restriction target and the heating cooker 8 as in the air conditioner 5 is calculated. It is determined whether or not the amount of power permitted by one breaker BK is exceeded, and when there is a predetermined margin, an operation permission signal is transmitted.

When the cooking menu is “fried food”, the power consumption to be used is 2000 W at the maximum, so the cooking device 8 requests this power consumption from the power command device (integrated management device) 10.
The power designation device calculates the maximum power consumption of the house 1 on the assumption of this power consumption. However, two types of “fried food” may be provided, and “manual fried food” in which the user can select the maximum heating power and “automatic fried food” in which the user cannot select the maximum heating power may be selected. In this case, the integrated management apparatus 10 determines that the “predicted maximum power consumption is 2000 W” in the former case, and the integrated management apparatus 10 determines that “the predicted maximum power consumption is 1800 W” in the latter case.

  The cooking device 8 has a function of limiting the power consumption of the control device 143 so that the maximum consumption output can be input only up to 1800 W for “manual fried food” and 2000 W for “automatic fried food”. Therefore, when “automatic deep-fried food” is selected in the cooking menu, the maximum power required from the cooking device 8 to the power command device (integrated management device) 10 is automatically determined as 2000 W. For this reason, it is not necessary for the integrated management apparatus 10 to have a function of determining the predicted maximum power consumption as described above.

  In the heating cooker 8 of the first embodiment, the safety of fried food cooking is emphasized, and it is initially set so that only “automatic fried food” can be selected. The following explanation is based on “automatic deep-fried food”. The automatic deep-fried food is simply described as “fried food” and will be described below.

In step S14, when the control device 143 receives the “permission signal” of the selected cooking menu from the integrated management device 10, the control device 143 proceeds to the next step S15.
In the next step S <b> 15, an operation information signal L <b> 4 indicating that the cooking operation of “automatic fried food” has been started is transmitted to the integrated management apparatus 10. The integrated management apparatus 10 knows the start of operation of the heating cooker 8 and performs an operation of grasping a change in power consumption.

  When cooking with the left IH coil 60L, high-frequency power is applied to the left IH coil 60L in order to drive the inverter circuit 120L. At the same time as the start of cooking, the first blower BM1 is started to operate and air for cooling is introduced into the heating cooker 8.

In the next step S16, an elapsed time from the start of the cooking is determined.
This determination reference time is determined for each cooking menu. For example, “automatic fried food” and “fried food” are 30 seconds, and “hot water” and “boiled” are 60 seconds.

In step S16, when 30 seconds in the case of “automatic deep-fried food” have elapsed, “Yes” determination is made, and the process proceeds to the next step S17.
In step S <b> 17, the control device 143 instructs the transmission unit 155 to transmit a command signal (control signal) F <b> 0 for starting the exhaust operation to the exhaust device 9.

  On the other hand, when the temperature detection circuit 144 that monitors the temperature of the object to be heated (including the first cooking utensil 62) detects the predetermined temperature T0 (see FIG. 22), the control device 143 causes the exhaust device 9 to In response to this, the infrared light emitting element 154 transmits a command signal F0 for starting the exhaust operation.

  In the first embodiment, as described above, the progress of the cooking process is monitored in two aspects of the elapsed time from the start of cooking and the temperature rise, and either one of the conditions is satisfied. In this case, a command signal F0 for starting the exhaust operation is transmitted. For this reason, the reliability and safety of the operation of the exhaust device 9 are high.

  The control signal transmitted in step S17 is for operating the exhaust device 9 in the “weak operation mode”. Then, the process proceeds to Step SA1 in FIG.

Next, FIG. 20 will be described.
FIG. 20 shows the operation of the control device 143 of the heating cooker 8. Hereinafter, the operation after step S17 in FIG. 19 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG.
Step SA1 is a step in which it is determined whether or not an oil cooking menu has been selected and cooking has been started.

In the case of oil cooking, since this step SA1 becomes “Yes”, “environment information” of the living space (kitchen) 3 where the heating cooker 8 is located is acquired from the integrated management device 10 next.
Moreover, the information which shows whether the air cleaner 7 is driving | operating is acquired from the integrated management apparatus 10 (SA2). In addition, after the cooking device 8 starts cooking, the integrated management device 10 is not inquired each time, but the integrated environment detection unit 16 cooks the cooking device 8 with oil when receiving the operation information signal L4. This information may be grasped and information on whether or not the air cleaner 7 is in operation may be automatically transmitted to the cooking device 8.

  In step SA3, when the air cleaner 7 is in operation, the process proceeds to step SA4, and a request signal is transmitted to the integrated environment detection unit 16 to stop the operation of the air cleaner 7 (SA4). .

Next, when the temperature detection circuit 144 that monitors the temperature of an object to be heated (including the first cooking utensil 62) detects the predetermined temperature T1 (see FIG. 22), the control device 143 controls the exhaust device. 9, a command signal for changing the exhaust operation condition is transmitted from the infrared light emitting element 154. The command signal transmitted here is indicated by F1.
In this case, the “weak operation mode” is changed to the “medium operation mode”.

Next, when the temperature detection circuit 144 detects a predetermined temperature T2 (see FIG. 22), the control device 143 transmits a command signal for changing the exhaust operation condition from the infrared light emitting element 154 to the exhaust device 9. (SA5). The command signal transmitted here is indicated by F2.
In this case, the “medium operation mode” is changed to the “strong operation mode”. Then, the exhaust device 9 changes the operating condition of the electric fan 26F, and as shown by the arrow FF1 in FIG. 2, the air in the living space 1 is sucked more strongly from the downward direction and discharged to the outdoors as shown by the arrow FF2. (SA5).

  In the operation program of the control device 143, when the temperature of the measurement object exceeds the second predetermined temperature T2 higher than the first predetermined temperature T1 in the preheating step, the second control signal (command signal). After transmitting F2, proceed to the deep-fried food process and the thermal power up process. And during execution of this deep-fried food process and a heating-power-up process, the said control apparatus 143 does not transmit the control signal which changes from a "2nd driving | operation" mode to a "1st driving | operation" mode. For this reason, once it is changed to the “strong operation mode”, it is not returned to the “medium operation mode”.

  During cooking, since the exhaust device 9 continues to operate in the “strong operation” mode, warm air including water vapor rising from the heating cooker 8 and the smell of food being heated is indicated by an arrow FF1 in FIG. It rises as shown and is introduced into the exhaust device 9 and does not flow in the direction of the air cleaner 7 as indicated by the arrow FF3. Moreover, since the air cleaner 7 has already stopped, as shown by the arrow FF4 in FIG. 2, the hot air, smell, etc. of cooking flow to the farthest part from the heating cooker 3 in the living space 3. Absent.

  When the started cooking is stopped by the control device 143, it is determined whether or not three minutes have elapsed since the supply of the high-frequency current to the left IH coil 60L is stopped (SA6).

  In the exhaust device 9 according to the first embodiment, when the heating operation is finished, the control device 143 monitors whether or not 3 minutes have elapsed from that point, and when 3 minutes have passed, a predetermined end command signal is emitted from the infrared light emission. It is transmitted from the element 145 to a receiving unit (not shown) of the exhaust device 9 (SA7). Such a passage of time is not measured on the heating cooker 8 side, and instead, on the exhaust device 9 side, for example, a heat sensing means such as a thermoelectromotive element for measuring the temperature on the top plate 55 side is provided to estimate cooking. Then, the exhaust operation may be automatically terminated.

  Thereafter, since the exhaust device 9 wirelessly transmits an operation end signal from the communication unit 23 to the integrated management device 10, the integrated management device 10 receives the signal and indicates that the exhaust device 9 has stopped operating and the latest environment. Information is transmitted to the heating cooker 8 (SA11).

  When the control device 143 finds that the air is dirty and the air quality is poor, a predetermined signal for requesting the start of operation of the air cleaner 7 is transmitted to the integrated management device 10 (SA13).

  Even after the operation of the exhaust device 9 is completed, the integrated environment detection unit 16 of the integrated management device 10 measures the air quality of the living space at predetermined time intervals, so that the heating cooker 8 is as shown in step SA12. Even if the operation is not performed, the operation of the air purifier 7 is automatically started as necessary. For this reason, you may abbreviate | omit step SA12 as the heating cooker 8, and is not essential for the heating cooker 8. FIG.

  On the other hand, if the operation other than oil cooking is started in step SA1, the process proceeds to step SA8, and the control device 143 reads out the environmental information of the living space 3 stored in the storage device 143R, and is the air dirty? It is determined whether or not (SA9). If the air is dirty, the process proceeds to step SA5, and the control device 143 sends a command signal F2 to the exhaust device 9 to start the exhaust operation in the “strong operation” mode from the infrared light emitting element 154. (SA5).

If it is determined in step SA9 that the air is not dirty, the process proceeds to step SA10, and the control device 143 performs the exhaust operation from the infrared light emitting element 154 to the “medium operation” mode with respect to the exhaust device 9. Send a command signal to change.
Thereafter, the process proceeds to step SA6 described above, and the description thereof is omitted.

  The exhaust device 9 has only three operation modes: a “strong operation” mode, a “medium operation” mode, and a “weak operation” mode. The “medium operation” mode is an operation in which the exhaust air volume per unit time is smaller than that in the “strong operation” mode and the exhaust capacity is larger than that in the “weak operation” mode. In each operation mode, since the opening area of the exhaust port 77 never changes, the “weak operation mode” has the slowest wind speed of the exhaust flow.

  FIG. 21 shows the cooking device 8 as a representative product of the home appliance EE, and operation information (execution of cooking menu, setting of thermal power, etc.) is provided at all times from power-on to power-off of the cooker. It is the timetable which showed to the power command apparatus 10 which served as an integrated management apparatus, and the condition where the total electric energy of the house 1 is managed. Even in other electrical equipment EE registered in advance by the user as a target for limiting the amount of power used, for example, the air conditioner 7, operation information is transmitted to the power command apparatus 10 as needed basically in the same manner as the heating cooker 8. doing.

  In FIG. 21, L <b> 1 to L <b> 8 are typical operation information signals transmitted from the heating cooker 8 to the power command device 10. L1 is a signal indicating main power-on (ON), and L2 is information for selecting a heating port. When the left IH coil 60L is selected, L2 is L2L.

  FIG. 21 shows a case where the left heating port by the left IH coil 60L is selected. L3 is information on selecting a cooking menu, and indicates a case where (automatic) “fried food” is selected from various cooking menus such as boiling, stewing, and deep-fried food cooking.

  L4 indicates operation information in which the inverter circuit 120L is actually driven and the heating operation is started. L5 indicates operation information when the predetermined temperature T1 is detected. L6 indicates the operation information when the fried food process is started by detecting the target temperature T2 (for example, 180 ° C.) of the preheating process shown in FIG. In this heating cooker 8, as will be described with reference to FIG. 22, the fried food cooking process to the heating-up process are defined as “execution time zone of the priority cooking menu”. Electricity is not reduced by the directive. That is, whether or not the cooking device 8 is actually in the “execution time zone of the priority cooking menu” is determined by whether or not it is after the information L6 (however, the next information L6 is not received). .

F0 is a command signal (control signal) for starting the operation of the exhaust device 9. F1 is a command signal (control signal) for operating the exhaust device 9 in the “medium operation” mode. These two signals are transmitted from the infrared light emitting element 154 toward the exhaust device 9 by the transmitter 155.
This control signal F0 is determined to be transmitted in step S16 of FIG. As described above, the determination is based on the elapsed time from the start of cooking and the temperature rise state.

  The reference time for determining the elapsed time is determined for each cooking menu. For example, it is 30 seconds for “fried food” and 60 seconds for “boiling water” and “boiled”. That is, in the case of an automatic fried food, a command signal (control signal) F0 is transmitted 30 seconds after the operation information signal L4. As described above, when the temperature detection circuit 144 detects that the predetermined temperature T0 has been reached before this time, the command signal (control signal) F0 is similarly transmitted.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 21, when the control signal F0 is transmitted, a special operation information signal (F0A) for requesting the integrated management device 10 to start operation of the exhaust device 9 from the heating cooker 8 May be sent. Even if the control signal F0 from the heating cooker 8 does not reach the exhaust device 9 due to some trouble, the integrated management device 10 can start the operation of the exhaust device 9, and the exhaust device 9 It can be expected to improve the reliability of the exhaust system.

  Similarly, as shown in FIG. 21, when the control signal F <b> 1 is transmitted, the exhaust device 9 is operated in the “medium operation” mode from the heating cooker 8 to the integrated management device 10. A special driving information signal (F1A) may be transmitted. Even if the control signal F1 from the heating cooker 8 does not reach the exhaust device 9 due to some trouble, the integrated management device 10 changes the operation mode of the exhaust device 9 and the “medium operation” mode. It can be operated, and it can be expected to improve the reliability of the exhaust system including the exhaust device 9.

  As shown in FIG. 21, when the control signal F2 is transmitted, the heating cooker 8 requests the integrated management device 10 to change the operation mode of the exhaust device 9 to the larger air volume side. A special driving information signal (F2A) may be transmitted. Even if the control signal F2 from the cooking device 8 does not reach the exhaust device 9 due to some trouble, the integrated management device 10 may set the operation of the exhaust device 9 to the “strong operation” mode. It is possible to improve the reliability of the exhaust system including the exhaust device 9.

  L7 indicates information that the driving of the inverter circuit 120L is actually stopped and the heating operation is finished. L8 is information indicating that the main power switch 95 is opened (OFF). Each of these pieces of information L1 to L8 includes the current time up to the second unit.

  As is clear from FIG. 21, in all the processes from turning on the power of the heating cooker 8 to turning off the power, the operation information signals L1 to L4 and the time zone excluding the “priority cooking menu execution time zone” It is possible to respond to the power reduction operation in accordance with the power reduction request from the power command device 10. Between the signals L1 to L4, the cooking menu is not finalized, and there is a possibility that “fried food” cooking may be selected immediately after this, so the preliminary period is designated without reducing power. However, since the heating operation is not substantially started during this period of L1 to L4 and the power used is small, the period of L1 to L4 may be set as the power reduction target period. I can't expect it.

  Therefore, for example, as described above, in the “hot water boiling” process that is not defined in the “priority cooking menu execution time zone”, the power can be reduced at any time according to the power reduction request. In other words, the power command device 10 can reduce the power consumption of the heating cooker 8 at any time even when the heating operation is started in the process of executing “hot water” as a cooking menu (it can also be stopped). ).

  FIG. 22 is a time table showing a state in which “priority cooking menu execution time zone” is being executed when (automatic) “fried food” is selected as the cooking menu. In FIG. 22, T2 is a preheating temperature set by the user, for example, 180 ° C. T1 is a temperature that determines the start of operation in the “medium operation” mode of the exhaust device 9, and is, for example, 100 ° C. T0 is a temperature that determines the start of operation in the “weak operation” mode of the exhaust device 9, and is, for example, 80 ° C.

  When the preheating temperature T2 is detected, the inverter circuit 120L automatically adjusts the heating power by the control device 143 and performs an operation to maintain the preheating temperature.

  Before detecting the preheating temperature (T2) set by the user, the temperature detection circuit (temperature detection device) 144 detects that the temperature of the object to be heated (metal pan) has become a lower temperature (T1). The control device 143 can detect.

  Then, a command signal (control signal) F1 is transmitted from the heating cooker 8 at a temperature T0 (for example, 80 ° C.) lower than the predetermined temperature T1, and the exhaust operation is changed from “medium operation” mode to “strong operation” mode. Change to

  That is, as shown in FIG. 21, the control device 143 maximizes the operation of the exhaust device 9 before the operation information signal L6 indicating that the preheating temperature has been detected is transmitted (step SA5 shown in FIG. 21). The command signal F2 starting in the “strong driving” mode with the ability of

  Then, the “priority cooking menu execution time zone” is started from the point of the driving information signal L6. Therefore, power is not reduced by external operations or commands during this execution time period. If the thermal power is unexpectedly dropped in this “priority cooking menu execution time zone”, the preheating temperature cannot be maintained, and the user thinks that the user has reached the desired temperature (for example, frozen croquettes are oiled). When the temperature of the tempura pan is at 140 ° C., for example, there is a possibility that the temperature is low and cooking cannot be performed.

Summary of the first embodiment.
As is clear from the above description, the heating cooker 8 of the first embodiment has the configuration of the first invention.
That is, the heating cooker 8 in the first embodiment is particularly clear from FIG.
Inside the main body 8A having the top plate 55, IH coils 60L and 60R serving as heating sources for heating an object to be heated placed on the top plate 55, and an insertion port through which a user can put in and out the article 73, a blower BM1 that introduces cooling air into the internal space of the main body 8A, a controller 143 that controls energization of the IH coils 60L and 60R of the heating source, and the controller 143. An operation unit 93 for inputting an operation command signal to the control unit, and a transmission unit 155 for transmitting a control signal to the exhaust device 9 outside the main body 8A.
The IH coils 60L and 60R are disposed in the exhaust air path between the intake port 58 through which the cooling air is introduced into the main body 8A and the two exhaust ports 77 for discharging the air to the outside of the main body 8A. Is placed,
The two exhaust ports 77 are provided on the rear upper surface of the main body 8A,
The two exhaust ports 77 are linearly formed in a predetermined range (WA4) in the lateral direction of the main body 8A, and the individual lateral lengths (WA1) of the two exhaust ports 77 are The IH coils 60L and 60R are configured to be larger than the diameter dimensions (RL and RR).

In this heating cooker, an exhaust port 77 is formed wider than the outer dimensions (diameters RL, RR) of the IH coils 60L, 60R. Since only the cooled and clean air is exhausted, when the steam or oil smoke generated from the heated metal pan or the like placed on the top plate 55 rises and is introduced into the exhaust device 9, the main body On the back side of 8A, a long strip-shaped air wall can be formed horizontally.
For this reason, even if the vertical wall surface of the living space 3 is approaching the back side of the main body 8A, it is possible to prevent oil smoke or the like from coming into contact with the vertical wall surface.

  Furthermore, since the storage room 70 having the insertion port 73 through which the user can put in and out the article is provided inside the main body 8A, the article such as accessories and cooking utensils is inserted and stored in the storage room 70. Since it can be taken out whenever necessary, the convenience during cooking can be improved.

Furthermore, the heating cooker 1 of the first embodiment has the following characteristics.
That is, this heating cooker 8 is particularly clear from FIG.
At least two IH coils 60L and 60R serving as heating sources for heating an object to be heated placed on the top plate 55 inside the main body 8A having the top plate 55, and a user puts and removes articles. A storage chamber 70 having an insertable opening 73, a blower BM1 for introducing cooling air into the internal space of the main body 8A, a control device 143 for controlling energization to the IH coils 60L and 60R, and the control device 143. An operation unit 93 for inputting an operation command signal to the control unit, and a transmission unit 155 for transmitting a control signal to the exhaust device 9 outside the main body 8A.
The IH coils 60L and 60R are arranged in an exhaust air path from the intake port 58 through which the cooling air is introduced into the main body 8A to the exhaust port 77 through which the cooling air is discharged to the outside of the main body 8A. And
The IH coils 60L and 60R are arranged side by side in the left-right direction within the range of the first dimension WA3,
The exhaust port 77 is provided on the upper surface of the rear part of the main body 8A.
The exhaust port 77 is linearly arranged with a second dimension (WA4) larger than the first dimension WA3 in the lateral direction of the main body 8A.

In this heating cooker, an exhaust port 77 is formed in a wider range (the range of the size WA4 in FIG. 7) than the first dimension WA3, and the exhaust port 77 is an IH coil or inverter in the main body 8A. Since only clean air that has cooled the substrate 117 and the like is exhausted, steam, oily smoke, etc. generated from a metal pan or the like placed on the top plate 55 and heated rises and is introduced into the exhaust device 9. In this case, a long strip-like air wall can be formed on the back side of the main body 8A.
For this reason, even if one or both of the two IH coils arranged side by side in the left-right direction are used at the same time and cooking is performed, the exhaust flow is discharged from the exhaust port 77 on the back side of the IH coils. Is done.
Therefore, even if the vertical wall surface of the living space 3 is close to the rear side of the heating cooker 8, it is possible to prevent the steam, oil smoke, or the like generated on the top plate 55 from contacting the vertical wall surface.

  Furthermore, since the storage room 70 having the insertion port 73 through which the user can put in and out the article is provided inside the main body 8A, the article such as accessories and cooking utensils is inserted and stored in the storage room 70. Since it can be taken out whenever necessary, the convenience during cooking can be improved.

Furthermore, the heating cooker 8 of the first embodiment is particularly as shown in FIG.
Having a main body 8A supported at a predetermined position of the kitchen furniture 15,
Inside the main body 8A, heating sources (IH coils) 60L and 60R for heating an object to be heated placed above the main body and cooling air from the blower MB1 are supplied to forcibly cool the internal space of the main body 8A. A cooling air passage 104 for
The heating sources 60L and 60R are arranged one by one at symmetrical positions on both sides of a center line CL1 that bisects the main body into right and left sides,
An exhaust port 77 serving as a terminal portion of the cooling air passage is provided at the rear of the main body 8A.
The exhaust port 77 is composed of two exhaust ports, each exhaust port having a predetermined length WA1 in the lateral width direction of the main body symmetrically with respect to the center line CL1. ,
The maximum width dimension WA4 in which the two exhaust ports 77 are arranged is formed larger than the maximum width dimension WA3 including the two heating parts 60L and 60R.

  According to the heating cooker 8, even if steam or oily smoke is generated from a heated object such as a cooking utensil placed above one or both of the two heating parts 60L and 60R, the main body 8A. It can be expected that the wall of the exhaust flow can be formed from the exhaust port 77 which is on the rear side and is long in the left-right direction, and effectively prevents contamination of the wall around the cooking device 8.

In addition, since these two exhaust ports 77 exhaust only clean air that has cooled the IH coil, the inverter board 117, and the like in the main body 8A, a metal pan or the like that is placed on the top plate 55 and heated. When the steam, oil smoke, etc. generated from the gas rises and is introduced into the exhaust device 9, a horizontally long strip-shaped air wall can be formed behind the main body 8 </ b> A.
For this reason, even if one of the two IH coils arranged side by side in the left-right direction and both of them are used at the same time for cooking, clean air is discharged from the exhaust port 77 on the back side of the IH coils. Even when the exhaust flow is released and the vertical wall surface of the living space 3 is close to the rear side of the heating cooker 8, steam or oil smoke generated on the top plate 55 comes into contact with the vertical wall surface. Can be suppressed.

(Other features)
The first embodiment has various advantages due to the following features.
(1).
The heating cooker 8 of the first embodiment is

In the heating cooker 8 according to the first embodiment, the control device 143 detects a state where the cover 71 is open, and prohibits the start of operation of the inverter circuits 120L and 120R when the cover is open. Since the safety device SD (132) is provided, the start of operation of the inverter circuits 120L and 120R is automatically prohibited when the cover 71 is open, thereby improving safety.

(9) Part 9
The heating cooker 1 of the first embodiment further includes wireless communication means 150,
When the first cooking utensil 62 is used, the tail operation unit 93 includes a command switch 98 for instructing acquisition of cooking reference information via the wireless communication unit 150. Information for reference can be acquired from the outside by wireless communication, and convenience when using the first cooking utensil 62 can be enhanced.

  In the first embodiment, the “medium operation” mode is called the first operation mode, and the “strong operation” mode is called the “second operation” mode. However, the “weak operation” mode and the “medium operation” mode are 1 Finally, this may be referred to as a “first operation” mode. That is, the exhaust capacity of the exhaust device 9 is not limited to being set to two stages, and may be a variable capacity type having three stages or four stages or more.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
23 to 29 show the cooking device 8 according to the second embodiment. This embodiment is characterized in that a device for positively cooling the storage chamber 70 of the cooking device 8 is provided. In addition, a part of the operation program of the control device 143 is changed so that the exhaust device 9 can be linked more quickly. Further, the first cooking utensil 62 is characterized by being improved so as to transmit a temperature signal. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to FIGS. 1-22 and the same part, or the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIG. 23 is a plan view when viewed at the same position as in FIG. 8, and shows a state in which the top plate 55 and the outer frame 54 are removed. As shown in FIG. 23, the heating cooker 8 of the second embodiment is characterized in that the cooling unit CU and the storage chamber 70 are connected by a hollow cylindrical branch duct 160.

  The width W1 of the exhaust port 77 is a length that corresponds to about 80% of the width WE of the top plate 55. Further, the maximum width dimension of the main body case 53 is slightly narrower than the width dimension of the top plate 55. The lateral width W1 of the exhaust port 77 is preferably longer, and is preferably at least 80% of the lateral width of the main body 8A or the lateral width WE of the top plate 55. For example, the lateral width W1 of the exhaust port 77 is 500 mm.

  The first blower BM1 has a large number of air inlets 58 formed at the rear part of the bottom wall 53B of the main body case 53 and the rear part of the trunk part 53U. As shown in FIG. 23, the suction port side of the first blower BM1 is located directly above the suction port 58 formed in the rear portion of the bottom wall 53B.

  The internal space of the main body case 53 is divided into two upper and lower parts by the horizontal partition plate 100. In FIG. 23, a part of the horizontal partition plate 100 and a cooling air duct 164 to be described later is shown broken, and 165 shows the broken line.

  24 is a longitudinal sectional view taken along line YY of FIG. As shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, one end (upstream side) of the branch duct 160 is connected to the left side surface of the outer case 107 constituting the cooling unit CU, and the other end (downstream side) is the storage chamber. 70 is connected to the upper part of the right side wall 70R. Thereby, a part of the cooling air supplied from the first blower BM1 to the inside of the cooling unit CU branches to the left side immediately before reaching the inverter circuit board 117 and flows into the branch duct 160.

  The cooling air that has flowed into the branch duct 160 is introduced into the storage chamber 70 from the outlet at the end of the branch duct 160 as indicated by the dashed arrows in FIG. Further, the cooling air passes through the storage chamber 70 and is then guided into the guide duct 162 from an exhaust duct 161 provided so as to penetrate the top wall 70T of the storage chamber 70. The guide duct 162 is long in the front-rear direction in the upper space 113 above the horizontal partition plate 100.

  The end portion of the guide duct 162 extends to the back of the vertically extending rear partition plate 103A as shown in the longitudinal sectional view of FIG. 25, and the opening 162A at the end portion has an exhaust port 77. It communicates with the space (exhaust air passage 104). The rear partition plate 103B is connected to the upper end of the rear partition plate 103A, extends horizontally, and forms a long exhaust port 77 in the left-right direction.

  As shown in FIG. 25, the opening 162A of the guide duct 162 avoids a position directly below the exhaust port 77 and is slightly ahead of it. This is to prevent such liquid from entering the opening 162A if water, cooking liquid, or the like flows from the exhaust port 77.

In FIG. 25, reference numeral 163 denotes a communication port formed on the side surface of the water receiving portion 130, which is in a position facing the ventilation window 129 formed in the rear partition plate 103A.
The water receiver 130 is located immediately below the exhaust port 77 and is long in the left-right direction and has a bowl shape in the vertical cross section.

  With the above configuration, the cooling air that has cooled the left and right IH coils 60L and 60R toward the exhaust port 77 changes to an air flow that rises at the water receiving portion 130 via the ventilation window 129 and the communication port 163. However, air from the inside of the storage chamber 70 is attracted to the rising exhaust flow from the opening 162A as shown by an arrow 171 and is discharged together outside the main body 8A.

Returning to FIG. 24, reference numeral 164 denotes a plastic cooling air duct. This is installed on the upper surface of the horizontal partition plate 100 and, as shown by a broken line, through the communication port 166 provided in the front ceiling surface of the cooling unit CU and the opening 101 provided in the horizontal partition plate 100, the cooling unit. Cooling air is introduced from the CU side. Then, the cooling air is guided to below the two IH coils 60L and 60R.
The two IH coils 60L and 60R to which high frequency power is applied by the inverter circuits 120L and 120R and become high temperature are cooled by the cooling air blown from a large number of through holes (jet holes) 164A on the ceiling surface of the cooling air duct 164. It is.

  In FIG. 24, SP1 is a space formed between the lower surface of the left IH coil and the upper surface of the horizontal partition plate 100, and is set to at least 4 cm. SP2 is a gap formed between the lower surface of the horizontal partition plate 100 made of metal or plastic and the ceiling wall 70T of the storage chamber 70, and is set to at least 1 cm. Accordingly, even if the thickness of the horizontal partition plate 100 is excluded, the position of the ceiling wall 70T of the storage chamber 70 is at least 5 cm or more at a linear distance in order to reduce the magnetic influence from the left IH coil 60L. It is set to be a distant position.

Since the first cooking utensil 62 is improved to transmit a temperature signal, this will be described with reference to FIG.
It has already been proposed to provide a temperature detection means and an IC tag for wirelessly transmitting the temperature measured by the temperature detection means in a cooking container such as a metal pan.
As a typical example, Japanese Patent No. 4089545 includes a metal container for putting a cooked food and an induction heating cooker for heating the container, and a temperature detection element is attached to the body of the container. An IC tag is provided on the handle portion of the container, and the induction heating cooker includes a communication means for communicating with the IC tag, and an induction heating cooking apparatus provided with a high frequency current generating means for receiving a signal of the communication means. Has been.

  Japanese Patent No. 4,848,741 discloses an induction heating cooker that communicates with an IC tag attached to a metal pan (container). Specifically, the temperature detection means is built in the bottom surface of the container placed on the top plate, and when the temperature of the temperature detection means rises, the change in the resistance value of the temperature detection means is detected by the IC tag. It transmits to the reader | leader in the heating-cooker main body side via an antenna, The reader | leader is the structure of sending the signal to the control means of induction heating. The control means compares the measured temperature transmitted from the reader with a set temperature (for example, 180 ° C.), controls the high frequency output of the high frequency current generating means (inverter circuit), and keeps the temperature of the container at 180 ° C. Is.

The first cooking utensil 62 in the second embodiment also has a function of transmitting a temperature signal.
In FIG. 26, the dish part 63 of the first cooking utensil 62 is made of a magnetic metal casting, or is formed by press molding iron or the like. Alternatively, it is formed by regularly arranging and sticking strips of magnetic metal on the bottom surface of a container made of a non-magnetic metal such as aluminum.
A temperature detection element 167 is attached to the dish portion 63 of the first cooking utensil 62 in a close contact state with, for example, a heat resistant adhesive (for example, silicon resin).

An IC tag 168 that receives a temperature detection signal from the temperature detection element 167 is attached to the handle 66.
On the other hand, an antenna 169 that receives a radio signal from the IC tag 168 is installed at a predetermined position on the lower surface of the top plate 55. Reference numeral 170 denotes a reader for reading information received by the antenna, and is installed behind the operation unit 93.

The temperature detection circuit 144 is disposed below the top plate 55 and passes through the top plate 55 through contact type temperature sensors (not shown) such as a thermistor that adjusts and detects the temperature by contacting the top plate 55. An infrared temperature sensor (not shown) for detecting the temperature of an object to be heated (including the first cooking utensil 62 and the second cooking utensil 90) placed on the top plate 55 from the amount of infrared rays that arrives; Temperature measurement data of several temperature sensors such as a contact-type temperature sensor (not shown) for detecting the temperature of the internal space of the case 53 and the inverter circuit board 117 is acquired.
The temperature detection circuit 144 is also supplied with temperature measurement data sent from the temperature detection element 167 via the IC tag 168.

Next, the flowchart of FIG. 27 will be described. This figure shows the operation steps of the control device 143, as in FIG.
As shown in FIG. 27, after step SB1 when oil cooking is started, control device 143 transmits an operation start command signal F1 from infrared light emitting element 154 to exhaust device 9 (SB2). At the start of the operation, the exhaust device 9 is operated in the “normal operation” mode air volume which means the “medium” stage air volume among the three levels (large, medium and small) of the exhaust air volume. The command signal (control signal) F1 may be after 30 seconds from the start of the heating operation as in the first embodiment, but may be simultaneously with the start of the heating operation. In the former, since the operation time of the exhaust device 9 is shortened, the total amount of power consumption can be reduced.

  In addition, an operation information signal L4A is transmitted to the integrated management apparatus 10. In the next step SB3, it is determined whether or not a predetermined “strong driving” mode condition is satisfied. Here, when the condition of “strong operation” is satisfied, the command signal for starting the “strong operation” mode is sent to the exhaust device 9 without referring to the integrated management device 10 whether or not the air cleaner 7 is in operation. Is transmitted from the infrared transmitting element 154. In addition, an operation information signal L4B indicating that the mode has been switched to the “strong operation” mode is transmitted to the integrated management apparatus 10. The conditions for switching to the “strong driving” mode will be described in detail later.

  Thereafter, the same operation as step SA6 in FIG. 20 is performed, and the same step operation as steps SA7, SA11, and SA12 in FIG. 20 is performed. If the air in the living space 3 is dirty, an operation request for the air cleaner 7 is made to the integrated management apparatus 10 as described in step SA13.

  In the second embodiment, as described with reference to FIG. 20 of the first embodiment, the environmental information and the operation information of the air cleaner 7 are read from the storage device 143R, and the process for determining whether or not the air cleaner 7 is being operated. Since the step SA2 performed by the control device 143 is omitted, when the predetermined “strong operation” condition is satisfied, the exhaust capability of the exhaust device 9 can be quickly increased to cope with exhaust such as oil smoke. There are advantages.

In addition, since the driving information signal L4B is transmitted to the integrated management apparatus 10, the integrated management apparatus 10 performs the following operation.
First, the integrated management device 10 always obtains the latest information on the start of oil cooking of the heating cooker 8 and the presence / absence of the operation of the air cleaner 7 from the direct heating cooker 8 and the air cleaner 7 respectively. Therefore, when the air cleaner 7 is in operation, the air cleaner 7 is instructed to stop the operation immediately. And when it turns out that the air of the living space 3 is dirty from the measurement result of the integrated environment detection part 16 in the step which the driving | operation of the exhaust apparatus 9 stopped, the driving | operation of the air cleaner 7 is started again. Therefore, an operation start command signal is issued to the air cleaner 7.

  Since it is this structure, it can avoid that the oil smoke which generate | occur | produces by the oil cooking of the heating cooker 8 is suck | inhaled by the filter 33 of the air cleaner 7, and causes a malfunction, such as clogging. In addition, step SB7 of FIG. 27 is a step when it is determined that the oil cooking is not started in the determination step SA1 of whether or not the oil cooking is started. A command signal for starting the “normal” operation is transmitted from the infrared light emitting element 154. In addition, an operation information signal L4A is transmitted to the integrated management apparatus 10.

FIG. 28 explains the “strong driving” condition shown in step SB3 of the flowchart of FIG.
In FIG. 28, conditions that satisfy the conditions for starting strong driving are described, but the first condition does not prevail over the second condition or less, and each condition described in this table is superior or inferior. When it is determined by the control device 143 of the heating cooker 8 that any one of the conditions is satisfied, Step SB3 is “Yes”, and a command signal for requesting “strong operation” is transmitted to the exhaust device 9. .

  The integrated management device 10 does not necessarily have a control function for starting or stopping energization of the air purifier 7 or the exhaust device 9 or changing operating conditions. Therefore, even if the integrated management device 10 senses that the operation mode of the exhaust device 9 has changed from, for example, “weak operation” to “medium operation” or “strong operation”, the exhaust device 9 is directly controlled based on the change. It may not be possible. Even in such a case, in the second embodiment, the operation condition of the exhaust device 9 can be changed via the heating cooker 8, for example, the mode is changed from “medium operation” to “strong operation”, and the air quality of the living space is changed. Can maintain comfort.

Various conditions shown in FIG. 28 will be described below.
(1) First condition: A case where both the continuous elapsed time from the start of energization of the IH coil and the thermal power (500 W) are satisfied. For example, this is the case where the IH coil continues for 3 minutes or more at a heating power of 500 W or more.
(2) Second condition: A temperature rise degree from the start of energization of the IH coil. The temperature here refers to a temperature of at least one of cooking oil, an object to be heated, and the top plate 55 when “oil cooking” which is one of cooking menus is performed. And the magnitude | size of a temperature rise may be 70 degree | times (except edible oil), for example. For this reason, in the case where the cooking of the top plate 55 is started at 25 ° C., the condition is satisfied when the temperature rises to 95 ° C. In the case of edible oil, it is set to, for example, 50 degrees in consideration of safety in order to avoid ignition due to overheating.
(3) Third condition: When the IH coil is energized with a heating power of 2 kw. This is a condition assuming that when a small amount of oil is put in a frying pan, etc., cooking is started with a heating power set to 2 kw or more, the frying pan etc. is rapidly heated and oil smoke is generated.
(4) Fourth condition: When the temperature of the object to be heated such as various commercially available pans, the first cooking utensil 62, and the first cooking utensil 90 exceeds 90 ° C due to the start of energization of the IH coil. In addition, this temperature should just be the detection temperature of the above-mentioned temperature detection circuit 144, for example, in the said 1st cooking utensil 62, the detection temperature of the temperature detection element 167 attached to it may be sufficient.
(5) Fifth condition: similar to the fourth condition, but when the temperature detection circuit 144 detects that the temperature of the first cooking utensil 62 is 90 ° C. or higher.
(6) Sixth condition: When the temperature detection circuit 144 detects that the temperature of the top plate 55 is 90 ° C. or higher.
(7) Seventh condition: A case where a special command signal is received from the integrated management device (power command device) 10. Since the integrated management device (power command device) 10 has an integrated environment detection unit 16 and constantly monitors changes in the air quality in the living space 3, a level that requires exhaust from the living space 3 is required. When there is a change (deterioration) in air quality exceeding the above, an operation start command signal or an operation condition change (for example, increase exhaust capability) command signal is sent to the air purifier 7 or the exhaust device 9 that improves air quality. May be issued. In the integrated management device (power command device) 10 of the second embodiment, it is assumed that the command signal for the exhaust device 9 has not succeeded due to an abnormality in the communication state or the like, and has passed through the transmitter 155 of the heating cooker 8. Indirect control with an infrared signal is also possible, and the exhaust device 9 can be reliably controlled.

FIG. 29 is an enlarged longitudinal sectional view of a storage chamber portion of the cooking device shown in FIG.
In the second embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the pair of left and right support plates 122L and 122R are long in the front-rear direction below the right wall surface 70R and the left wall surface 70L of the storage chamber 70 (the depth of the storage chamber 70). To fit the dimensions).

  The support plates 122L and 122R are fixed to the two left and right side walls 70R and 70L by screws 125.

  A step 126 is formed at the uppermost end of the support plates 122L and 122R, and has a vertical cross-sectional shape bent at a right angle so as to spread in the horizontal direction. The dish portion 63 of the first cooking utensil 62 is integrally formed with a lid receiving portion 63E on which the lid 64 can be placed at the uppermost end.

  In the second embodiment, the position of the lid receiving portion 63E is higher than that of the first embodiment. That is, as shown in FIG. 29, it is formed at a predetermined height HD from the bottom surface. This dimension HD is, for example, 50 mm to 60 mm. This dimension is set so that the linear distance from the coils is at least 50 mm or more even when induction heating is performed by the IH coils 60L and 60R. That is, since the lid receiving portion 63E and the handle 66 are separated from the bottom surface by a predetermined height HD, induction heating is directly performed by the IH coil to avoid a high temperature.

Furthermore, in this second embodiment, the position of the lid receiving portion 63E is different from that of the first embodiment, and is located above the stepped portion 72E and close to the left and right side walls 70L, 70R of the storage chamber 70. It is in.
For this reason, the effective inner diameters of the plate portion 63 and the lid portion 64 can be made larger than those in the first embodiment. Therefore, the first cooking utensil 62 having a large effective internal diameter can be used, and there is a secondary advantage that the amount of cooking (baked fish, dumplings, etc.) can be increased at a time.

  The lid receiving portion 63E maintains a gap GPX with the left side wall 70L of the storage chamber 70. This gap may be a minimum dimension as long as the cooking utensils 62, 90, etc. are not in contact with the left side wall 70L or the right side wall 70R of the storage chamber 70 when the tray 72 is pulled out.

  Since the stepped portion 72E extends on the support plates 122L and 122R as shown in FIG. 29, the support plates 122L and 122R are almost visible on both sides of the tray 72 even when the user pulls out the tray 72. Absent. That is, the support plates 122L and 122R, which are mechanical structures, are made difficult to see and the design is improved. This point is the same as the effect of the first embodiment.

Summary of the second embodiment.
As is clear from the above description, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be expected also in the cooking device 8 of the second embodiment.
Also in the heating cooker 8 of the second embodiment, the storage chamber 70 is secured inside the main body 8A as in the first embodiment, and an article such as an accessory or cooking utensil is inserted and stored therein. Since it can be taken out whenever necessary, the convenience during cooking can be improved. And since the command signal which controls an operation | movement according to a cooking menu is transmitted with respect to the exhaust apparatus 9 which exhausts from an indoor living space, oil smoke, hot air, etc. which generate | occur | produce on the top plate 55 at the time of cooking are exhausted. It can be expected that the exhaust flow from the port 77 is guided to the exhaust device 9 side and discharged out of the living space 3.

  In the heating cooker 8 according to the second embodiment, a part of the cooling air supplied from the first blower BM1 to the inside of the cooling unit CU is branched at a stage before reaching the inverter circuit board 117, and the branch duct 160. Flows in. That is, the cooling air before the temperature rises due to the heat from the inverter circuit board 117 is directly supplied to the inside of the storage chamber 70 by the branch duct 160, so that the storage chamber 70 is directly supplied by the cooling air. To be cooled. For this reason, the temperature rise suppression effect of the storage chamber 70 can be expected more effectively than the first embodiment.

  In addition, as described in the second embodiment, not the cooling air before cooling the inverter circuit board 117, but a part of the cooling air after cooling is branched and introduced into the storage chamber 70, It may be discharged outside the main body 8A. According to this, even if there is a scene where hot air stays in the internal space of the storage chamber 70, it can be solved.

  Furthermore, a part of the cooling air after the inverter circuit board 117 is cooled may be branched, passed outside the storage chamber 70, and discharged to the outside of the main body 8A. For example, if the cooling air is passed through the gap SP2 shown in FIG. 13, the storage chamber 70 can be cooled from the outside. For this reason, even if there is a scene in which hot air stays in the internal space of the storage chamber 70, it can be eliminated by lowering the temperature of the storage chamber 70.

Moreover, in this Embodiment 2, the following heating cookers 8 are provided.
In other words, this heating cooker 8 is, as explained in particular in FIGS. 27 and 28,
Inside a main body 8A having a top plate 55 on which an object to be heated (including the first cooking utensil 62) is placed, a heating source for heating the object to be heated (IH coil 60L, 60R), a blower BM1 for introducing air, a control device 143 for controlling energization to the heating source, and a transmitter 155 for transmitting a control signal to the exhaust device 9 outside the main body 8A, Each provided,
An exhaust port for discharging the air introduced by the blower is provided in the upper part of the main body,
The control device is at least one of a cumulative energization time, a temperature increase value of the measurement object, a temperature increase range, an excess of a predetermined temperature, and a maximum heating power value after starting the cooking process or starting the exhaust device. When one condition is satisfied, a control signal F2 for switching to an operation for increasing the exhaust capacity of the exhaust device is transmitted from the transmitter 155.

  According to this, it is possible to improve the exhaust capacity of the exhaust device 9 assuming a scene in which the heating process proceeds and oil smoke or high-temperature steam is generated, so that the smell of cooking diffuses in the living space 3, Oil smoke can be prevented from staying.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
30 to 35 show the cooking device 8 according to the third embodiment.
The third embodiment is characterized in that the inside of the main body case 53 of the cooking device 8 is divided into two spaces by a horizontal partition plate (first partition) 100 and a second partition 114. Further, the cooling air is discharged from the exhaust port 77 in the direction directly above. The control device 143 of the heating cooker 8 is also changed to improve the operation start timing of the exhaust device 9. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to FIGS. 1-22 and the same part, or the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

60 is a right IH coil, and 60L is a left IH coil. Reference numeral 60M denotes a central IH coil disposed at the rear portion of the main body case 53 at an intermediate position between these two IH coils.

  91L, 91M, and 91R are display screens such as a liquid crystal display screen, respectively, and are arranged close to each other below a transparent window formed in a part of the top plate 55, respectively. The transparent window is formed by not printing only a part of the printing film provided so as to cover the lower surface of the top plate 55. The three display screens 91L, 91M, and 91R display the input result of the operation unit 93, the cooking process, warning information, and the like.

Next, FIG. 31 will be described. FIG. 31 shows the cooking device shown in FIG. 30 with the top plate removed.
The inside of the main body case 53 of the heating cooker 8 is partitioned into two spaces by a horizontal partition plate (first partition) 100 and a second partition 114 (see FIG. 32), and above the horizontal partition plate 100. An upper space 113 is formed. In this upper space, three IH coils 61L, 61M, and 61R are arranged.

A ventilation window 129 that partitions the space between the upper space 113 and the exhaust port 77 is formed in the rear partition plate 103A (see FIG. 33).
The rear part partition plate 103 is vertically attached to the rear part of the metal horizontal partition plate 100.

  In FIG. 31, six ventilation windows 129 are formed, but more may be formed. It is desirable to form the cooling air flowing from the front to the rear in the upper space 113 at equal intervals (opening area and shape) so as to be divided as evenly as possible.

175 is a closing plate provided so as to close the middle position between the two exhaust ports 77;
This is a position directly behind the central IH coil 61M. With the closing plate 175, one opening is divided into two on the left and right sides, and serves as an exhaust port 77.
Reference numeral 176 denotes a standing wall that is formed to be laterally long at a position just behind the right IH coil 61R. It is installed in the upper part of the unit CU. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 34, the air path 177 directly above the standing wall 176 is slightly narrowed.

  The standing wall 177 also functions as a bank that prevents liquid such as water from dripping or entering from the exhaust port 77 so that it does not move forward.

Next, FIG. 32 will be described. 32 is a longitudinal sectional view of the cooking device shown in FIG. 30 taken along the line XX. It has an outer case 107 that forms the outer shell of the cooling unit CU.
The outer case 107 is composed of two units: an upper lid portion 115 made of an electrically insulating material (plastic or the like) and a lower side portion 116 made of an electrically insulating material (plastic or the like) so as to support it. It is configured.
An inverter circuit board 117 is installed horizontally inside the outer case 107.
The upper lid portion 115 and the lower side portion 116 are joined by screws to form a box-shaped cooling unit CU.

In FIG. 32, SP1 indicates a (first) gap secured between the lower surface of the left IH coil 8L and the metal horizontal partition plate 100, and is set to at least 3 to 5 cm. SP2 is a (second) gap formed between the lower surface of the horizontal partition plate 100 and the upper wall surface 70T of the storage chamber 70, and is set to at least 1 to 2 cm.
SP3 is a (third) gap formed between the right side wall 70R of the storage chamber 70 and the second partition 114, and has a size of about 3 cm to 5 cm.

  Reference numeral 178 denotes a support plate having a flat area that covers the entire body case 53 and has a frame shape. That is, a large window 178A is formed in the center, and the top plate 55 is placed from above so as to close the window.

Next, FIG. 33 will be described. FIG. 33 is a longitudinal sectional view of the heating cooker shown in FIG. 31 taken along line YY.
Reference numeral 179 denotes a decorative frame formed of aluminum or the like, which is a part corresponding to the outer frame 54 of the first embodiment. The decorative frame has a size surrounding the two exhaust ports 77 and is fixed to the support plate 178 so as not to move to the rear part of the main body case 53.

Reference numeral 128 denotes a final exhaust port formed so as to penetrate the decorative frame vertically, and this final exhaust port is formed so as to coincide with the position of the exhaust port 77.
The opening area (size) / shape of the final exhaust port 128 substantially matches the size / shape of the exhaust port 77.

In FIG. 34, reference numeral 173 denotes a top plate that supports the first blower BM1 in a connected state with respect to the cooling unit CU, and is made of an electrically insulating material (plastic or the like). The first blower BM1 is sandwiched between the lower side portion 116 and the lower side portion 116.
The standing wall 176 is integrally formed on the top surface of the top plate.
A power supply board 174 is connected to a commercial power supply. Electrical components such as a noise removal filter are mounted on the power supply board so as not to transmit a noise signal to the outside of the heating cooker 8 through the power cord.

Next, FIG. 35 is a time table showing the operation of all steps from turning on the power to turning off the cooking appliance 8 with the cooking device 8 as a representative product of the home appliance EE.
In FIG. 35, operation information (execution of cooking menu, setting of thermal power, etc.) is transmitted to the power command device 10 that also serves as an integrated management device, and the total power amount of the house 1 is managed. This is because the user has registered the heating cooker 8 in advance as a target for limiting the amount of power used. Of the other electrical equipment EE, the electrical equipment EE (for example, the air conditioner 7) that restricts the amount of power used basically transmits operation information to the power command apparatus 10 as needed in the same manner as the heating cooker 8. doing.

  Further, in FIG. 35, L1 to L8 are operation information signals transmitted from the heating cooker 8 to the power command apparatus 10. L3 is an information signal indicating that the cooking menu has been selected, and indicates a case where “automatic fried food” has been selected from various cooking menus such as boiling, stewing, and fried food cooking.

  L4 indicates an information signal in which the inverter circuit 120L is actually driven and the (induction) heating operation is started. L5 shows the information signal that the fried food process was started. Each of these operation information signals L1 to L8 includes information indicating the current time up to a second unit.

  The same temperature detection device as the temperature detection circuit 144 described in the first embodiment is provided, and the temperature of the object to be heated (metal pan) is lower before detecting the preheating temperature (T2) set by the user. It can be detected that the temperature (T1) has been reached. Therefore, in the control device 143 that has obtained the temperature detection information from the temperature detection device, before the operation information signal L5 indicating that the preheating temperature has been detected (step SA5 shown in FIG. 35), the exhaust device. The command signal F1 for starting the operation 9 can be issued. However, in the third embodiment, as in the first embodiment, the exhaust device 9 is not requested to start operation with an infrared signal or the like, but the exhaust gas generator 9 is temporarily operated with respect to the power command device 10. A signal requesting is sent. In this case, it is referred to as “Ventilation start recommendation” in FIG.

  When receiving the operation information signal L5 for requesting the operation of the exhaust device 9 from the heating cooker 8, the electric power command device 10 starts the operation with respect to the exhaust device 9 (however, the “weak” operation mode with a small exhaust air volume). Command. When the exhaust device 9 receives this command signal F0, the operation circuit of the exhaust device 9 is activated (ON).

  On the other hand, since the electric power command device 10 already knows that cooking including oil is executed by the operation information signal L3 from the heating cooker 8, when the air purifier 7 is operated, For example, a “temporary stop command signal” is issued so as to stop the operation after 10 seconds (FB in FIG. 35).

The power command device 10 further operates as follows.
(1) Notify that the operation of the air purifier 7 is stopped. For example, guidance such as “the operation of the air purifier will be stopped for a while from now” is automatically performed by a voice guide device (not shown).
(2) On the liquid crystal display screen 24 that also serves as the input unit of the power command apparatus 10, a message having the same meaning is displayed in characters.
(3) When there is a television receiver in the household electrical appliance EE capable of information communication with the power command apparatus 10, when the television receiver is being viewed, a message having the same meaning is displayed on a part of the display screen. Display with text. This display command is performed by the power command device 10.
(4) When the air purifier 7 is inevitably operated at the time of display and notification of the above (1) to (3), a specific key is pressed on the operation section of the air purifier 7 or its remote controller. Simultaneously informs of pressing. For example, the user instructs to press the “#” key twice.
(5) After such notification up to (4), if such a specific key is not pressed within a predetermined time (for example, 8 seconds), the power command device 10 instructs the air cleaner 7 to “pause stop command”. No signal is issued to cancel "Signal".

  With the above operation, the air cleaner 7 is automatically stopped (OFF) when 10 seconds have elapsed from the time point when the notification (4) is performed, unless the user indicates the intention to continue driving. Even if the air cleaner 7 is turned off, the wireless communication unit 31 is in a standby state so that communication with the power command device 10 can be performed at any time. Moreover, the air cleaner 7 reports to the electric power command apparatus 10 by the predetermined | prescribed driving | operation information signal that the driving | operation stopped according to instruction | command.

The power command device 10 indicates that when the air purifier 7 is temporarily stopped as described above, the remote operation of the air purifier 7 is not accepted for the terminal device 43 in which the unique number is registered in advance. Send signal FC. From this time point to the time point when a signal FH described later is transmitted, no remote operation (for example, operation start) of the air cleaner 7 is accepted from the terminal device 43 at all. The terminal device 43 cannot perform remote operation by transmitting an operation signal directly to the air cleaner 7. This is because the air purifier 7 does not include a receiving unit that directly receives wireless communication from the outside of the house 1.
When a remote operation signal is transmitted to the power command apparatus 10, the air cleaner 7 can be remotely operated indirectly via the power command apparatus 10.

In addition, the electric power instruction | command apparatus 10 received the signal L3, when the information which shows oil cooking was contained in the said operation information signal L3 transmitted from the said heating cooker 8, and started heating operation | movement after that. When the operation information signal L4 indicating this is received, the air cleaner 7 is completely locked.
That is, the control unit 22 of the power command device 10 does not issue a command signal that permits the start of the operation if the air cleaner 7 is stopped at that time (when the signal L4 is received). . That is, even if a remote operation signal for starting the operation of the air purifier 7 is received from the terminal device 43 before the time point when the signal FC is transmitted, the operation of the air purifier 7 is started according to the signal. There is nothing.

  In this third embodiment, the power command device 10 performs processing that does not accept remote operation of the air cleaner 7 from the terminal device 43 when the air cleaner 7 is temporarily stopped along with the start of operation of the heating cooker 8. Even if a resident or the like outside knows such circumstances, even if the remote operation (for example, start of operation) of the air cleaner 7 is designated from the terminal device 43, the air cleaner 7 is actually operated as it is. Not. For this reason, it is possible to prevent problems such as the air cleaner 7 being inadvertently started and oil smoke or the like during oil cooking being accumulated and the performance of the filter 33 being deteriorated.

  When a little time has elapsed from the start of the heating operation, the temperature of the cooking utensil on the top plate 55, for example, the first cooking utensil 62, rises due to the IH coils 61L and 61R that have started to be used. Therefore, before detecting the preheating temperature (T2) set by the user, the control device 143 detects that the temperature of the object to be heated (metal pan) is lower than that (T1). ”Mode).

In addition, it detected that it became temperature (T1), did not switch to "medium operation", and after 1 minute passed from the time of receiving the driving information signal L4, the exhaust air volume was slightly increased with respect to the ventilator 9. The “medium operation” mode may be commanded. Alternatively, these two may be combined, and the faster one may be adopted to change to the “medium operation” mode.
When the exhaust device 9 receives the operation mode change command signal F4 from the integrated management device 10, the exhaust device 9 is changed to the "medium operation" mode, and the exhaust air volume increases.

  When the heating process further proceeds, the control device 143 can detect that the temperature of the object to be heated (metal pan) has reached the preheating temperature (T2) set by the user. Then, the control device 143 can issue a command signal F5 to the exhaust device 9 so as to switch to the “strong operation” mode.

  When the heating process proceeds and the control device 143 stops energization of the IH coil 61L in use, an operation information signal L7 is transmitted from the heating cooker 8 to the power command device 10. Even after that, the cooking device 8 detects the temperature of the top plate 55, so it monitors whether the temperature has decreased to, for example, less than 50 ° C. When it is detected that the temperature has decreased to less than 50 ° C., As shown in FIG. 35, an operation information signal L7A of “recommend ventilation end” is transmitted.

  In the electric power command device 10, since it can be known from the operation information signal L7A from the cooking device 8 that the cooking is over, a “stop designation signal” is issued to the ventilation device 9 (FE in FIG. 35). .

Upon receiving the signal FE, the exhaust device 9 stops the exhaust operation.
In addition, when the operation of the exhaust device 9 is stopped as described above, the power command device 10 transmits an information signal FG indicating that the operation of the air cleaner 7 can be resumed.

  Thereafter, the power command device 10 notifies the specific terminal device 43 that has notified that the remote operation cannot be accepted that the air cleaner 7 can be remotely operated (for example, started operation) ( FH in FIG. 35). In addition, when the air quality of the living space 3 is improved when the information FG indicating that the operation can be resumed is transmitted, the integrated environment detection unit 16 detects such an improvement in the air quality. Before the machine 7 is restarted, the controller 143 determines whether or not the air cleaner 7 needs to be operated, and the air cleaner 7 may not be started.

  In the third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 31, a rear partition plate 103 is provided at the rear of the horizontal partition plate 100, and the cooling air flowing to the left exhaust port 77 is laterally transmitted by a plurality of ventilation windows 129. After being dispersed, the exhaust port 77 is reached. For this reason, it can be set as the exhaust flow discharge | released upwards from the whole horizontal width of the exhaust port 77. FIG. As a result, hot air, oily smoke, and the like above the top plate 55 can be guided in a wide range in the upward direction.

  Further, in the third embodiment, as shown in FIG. 31, a standing wall 176 that is formed horizontally long is provided at a position just behind the right IH coil 61R, and the cooling air after cooling the right IH coil 61R is on the right side. The amount reaching the exhaust port 77 is adjusted. That is, since the air passage 177 directly above the standing wall 176 is slightly narrowed, the cooling air supplied from the cooling unit CU to the periphery of the right IH coil 61R is directed to the exhaust port 77 that is close to the rear side. The amount of air flowing around the left IH coil 61 </ b> L is suppressed from being excessively reduced, and is adjusted so that a large difference is not produced between the amount of air discharged from the two exhaust ports 77 and the air speed.

(Summary of Embodiment 3)
In the third embodiment, basically the same effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained.
Furthermore, the air quality improvement system of this Embodiment 3 is
The rear part of the main body 8A in a state of cooling air that forcibly introduces the air of the living space 3 into the internal space of the main body 8A fixed at a predetermined position of the living space 3 and does not heat food such as food. A heating cooker 8 that discharges into the living space from an exhaust port 77 provided in
An exhaust device 9 that is located above the cooking device 8 and discharges hot air generated on the cooking device 8 side to the outside of the space;
An air cleaner 7 for purifying the air in the living space 3 with the heating cooker 8;
An integrated management device 10 that collects information on the operation state of the heating cooker 8 and the air purifier 7 and controls the operation of the heating cooker 8 and the air purifier 7,
An environment detection unit 16 that transmits the result of measuring the air quality such as dirt and smell of the air in the living space with the heating cooker 8 to the integrated management device 10, and
A terminal device 43 connected to the integrated management device 10 via the communication network 18 and giving an operation start command to the air cleaner 7 via the integrated management device;
The integrated management device 10 controls the operation of at least one of the air purifier 7 and the exhaust device 9 based on information indicating the result of measuring the air quality from the environment detection unit 16,
Further, the integrated management device 10 is based on the operation information transmitted from the heating cooker 8 and at least one of the operation start, operation stop, operation time, or exhaust capacity of the air cleaner 7 and the exhaust device 9. Control
The integrated management device 10 gives the air purifier from the terminal device 43 during a period in which the operation is stopped by giving an operation stop command to the air purifier 7 according to the operation state of the cooking device 8. When the operation start command for the air cleaner 7 is received, it is prohibited to issue an operation start command signal corresponding to the command to the air cleaner 7.

  Therefore, according to the air quality improvement system of the third embodiment, the integrated management apparatus 10 suspends the air purifier 7 from the terminal device 43 when the heating cooker 8 starts operation. 7 does not accept the remote operation. Therefore, even if a resident or the like who is outdoors tries to remotely operate the air purifier 7 without knowing such circumstances, such operation is not performed. For this reason, there is an effect that it is possible to prevent the problem that the air purifier 7 is inadvertently started and deteriorates in performance due to oil smoke or the like due to cooking.

As shown in FIG. 35, the home appliance integrated management apparatus 10 according to the third embodiment
A heating cooker 8 that is installed in the installation opening 15A of the kitchen furniture 15 and that concentrates and exhausts air sucked from the interior of the kitchen furniture 15 as cooling air from a horizontally long exhaust port 77 formed in the upper part of the main body 8A; Operation of two home appliances, that is, an exhaust device 9 that sucks steam, oily smoke, and the like generated from an object to be heated placed on the upper surface of the heating cooker 8 and discharges the cooling air to the outside of the living space 3. A control unit 22 to be linked is provided,
The control unit 22 acquires an operation information signal from the heating cooker 8, transmits a cooking start permission signal to the heating cooker 8,
Further, the operation information signal received by the control unit 22 from the cooking device 8 indicates a first signal L5 that recommends the start of operation of the exhaust device 9 and that the cooking process has proceeded to a predetermined stage. There are at least two of the second signals L6;
When the control unit 22 receives the first signal L5, the control unit 22 transmits the control signal F0 in the “first operation” mode for operating the blower 26F of the exhaust device 9 with the first exhaust capability, When the second signal is received, the control signal F2 in the “second operation” mode in which the engine is operated with an exhaust capacity larger than the first exhaust capacity is transmitted.

  For this reason, according to the integrated management device 10 of the third embodiment, the operation of the exhaust device 9 is initially performed in the “first operation” mode such as the “weak operation” mode with the start of the operation of the heating cooker 8. Then, when the preheating temperature is reached in the preheating process, the exhaust device 9 is switched to the “second operation” mode such as the “strong operation” mode when the operation proceeds to a predetermined stage. The amount can be increased. Thereby, even if the generation amount of steam and oily smoke increases with cooking, it is expected that the exhaust device 9 collects them together with the exhaust flow from the exhaust port 77 and discharges them outside the living space 3. There is.

  Moreover, in the integrated management apparatus 10 of the household appliances of this Embodiment 3, the said control part 22 has the household appliances (for example, air cleaner 7) which should stop driving | operation at the time of the driving | operation of the said heating cooker 8. FIG. In this case, the operation stop command signal FB is transmitted to the home appliance (air purifier 7) at a stage prior to the transmission of the control signal F2 in the “second operation” mode. It was.

  For this reason, since the air cleaner 7 can be automatically stopped with the operation start of the heating cooker 8, the effect that the air cleaner 7 inhales the oil smoke etc. and the malfunction that performance deteriorates can be prevented. It is what you play.

Embodiment 4 FIG.
36 to 41 show the cooking device 8 according to the fourth embodiment.
In the fourth embodiment, the exhaust air passage 104 close to the exhaust port 77 is further improved. That is, one feature is that the bowl-shaped water receiving portion 130 constituting the end portion of the exhaust air passage 104 is formed as one unit. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to FIGS. 1-22 and the same part, or the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  FIG. 36 is a plan view showing the heating cooker 8. In this example, it is a built-in induction heating cooker in which only one heating port is provided in the left and right central portion of the top plate 55.

  In FIG. 36, the IH coil 60 is arranged at a position straddling the left-right center line CL1 of the top plate 55. Actually, since the IH coil 60 is below the top plate 55, it cannot be visually observed as shown in FIG. Since the IH coil 60 is also arranged at a position that crosses the front-rear center line CL2, the approximate center position of the top plate 55 that is close to the square matches the center of the thin circular (donut-like) IH coil 60. ing. The maximum external dimension A of the IH coil 60 is, for example, 250 mm.

  Reference numeral 70 denotes a storage chamber provided with a cover 71 (not shown) that can be opened and closed on the front side where the operation unit 93 is located, and the whole is made of a thin metal plate. The IH coil 60 is horizontally installed at a position 60 mm above the ceiling wall 70T (not shown) of the storage chamber 70.

  Reference numeral 180 denotes a short-range wireless communication unit (hereinafter referred to as “NFC communication unit”) that constitutes a part of the operation unit 93. Here, communication can be performed by approaching or contacting a terminal device 43 such as a smartphone having a short-range wireless communication function.

  The first blower BM1 is disposed in the right inner space of the main body case 53, and has an air inlet (not shown) made up of a plurality of small holes formed in the lower side surface and the bottom surface portion 53B of the main body case 53. The air in the living space 3 is sucked through the internal space.

  The exhaust air passage 104 formed on the downstream side from the first blower BM1 passes through the upper space 113 with the IH coil 60 without passing through the inside of the storage chamber 70 in the lower space 112, and finally Reaches the exhaust port 77 formed in a horizontal straight line at the rear of the top plate 55.

  The width W1 of the exhaust port 77 is a length that corresponds to about 80% of the width WE of the top plate 55. Further, the lateral width W1 of the exhaust port 77 is twice or more larger than the outer dimension A of the IH coil 60.

  In FIG. 36, an arrow 111 indicates the flow of cooling air discharged from the exhaust port 77, and an arrow indicated by a broken line indicates the cooling air flowing through the upper space 113. In addition, the arrow 111 indicated by a solid line is drawn horizontally in FIG. 36, but is actually cooling air flowing in the substantially vertical direction from the exhaust port 77.

FIG. 37 shows a bowl-shaped water receiving portion 130 that constitutes a terminal portion of the exhaust air passage 104. The water receiving portion 130 is manufactured from a thin metal plate or plastic.
In the fourth embodiment, a stainless steel or aluminum thin plate is press-molded so as not to corrode or rust with water or the like, and the bottom surface is a curved surface.

  In FIG. 37, the lateral width dimension W5L of the water receiver 130 is formed to be half of the lateral width dimension W1 of the exhaust port 77 shown in FIG. That is, immediately below the exhaust port 77, the two water receiving portions 130 are arranged in series. As described above, since the width W1 of the exhaust port 77 is 500 mm, the width W5L of the water receiving portion 130 is slightly shorter than 250 mm.

In FIG. 37, the width dimension B in the front-rear direction of the water receiving portion 130 is slightly narrower than the width dimension WB in the front-rear direction of the exhaust port 77 as shown in FIG.
Reference numeral 163 denotes a number of communication openings established in the wall on the front side of the water receiver 130.

  At the front side of the communication port 130, there is a rear partition plate 103 provided so as to partition the entire upper space 113 in the front-rear direction. Unlike the second embodiment shown in FIG. 25, the rear partition plate 103A is not provided with a large number of ventilation windows 129 corresponding to the individual communication ports 163, but is provided with a large ventilation window 129 that is long in the lateral width direction. One or two are provided.

  In FIG. 37, reference numeral 181 denotes a partition provided inside the water receiver 130 so as to partition it into a plurality of spaces. In FIG. 37, two partition walls 181 are provided so as to be divided into three parts. Due to the presence of the partition wall, the cooling air that has entered the interior space of the water receiving portion 130 from the ventilation window 129 does not concentrate on the right corner portion and the left corner portion of the exhaust port 77, and the cooling air flows from the entire exhaust port 77. Blows out. The height of the partition wall 181 only needs to extend from the lowest bottom surface of the water receiving portion 130 toward the exhaust port 77, and it is not necessary to approach the upper end surface of the partition wall 181 so as to contact the exhaust port 77.

In FIG. 38, reference numeral 78 denotes an exhaust cover made of plastic or metal, and as shown in FIG. 38, a communication passage 182 serving as a terminal portion of the exhaust air passage 104 is formed on the rear side. It is formed toward the direction.
As shown in FIG. 38, the communication path 182 opens to the back surface 78B side, and since the back surface is an inclined surface that goes down as it goes backward, cooking is performed while standing on the front side of the kitchen furniture 15. The user does not see the exit of the communication path 182, that is, the final exhaust port 128. For this reason, designability is not impaired.

  In FIG. 38, several to ten or more communication passages 182 are provided in the lateral width direction of the exhaust port 77 in the form of independent through holes. When the opening area of the communication path 182 is increased, foreign substances and the like enter, so that the final exhaust ports 128 having a certain opening area are arranged regularly.

(Basic operation of the integrated management device)
Next, the basic operation of the integrated management device (power command device) 10 will be described with reference to FIG.
As shown in FIG. 39, as the “power control target device” whose power consumption is limited by the power command device 10, the heating cooker 8 and the air conditioner 5 are registered in the power command device 10 in advance. Has been.
As for the priority of ensuring electric power, the heating cooker 8 is higher than the air conditioner 5. Therefore, when the use of the heating cooker 8 is started during the operation of the air conditioner 7, a command signal may be issued so as to reduce the amount of power of the air conditioner 7.

As shown in FIG. 39, the following description is based on the premise that the air cleaner 7 and the exhaust device 9 are not registered as “power control target devices”.
A case where the use of the heating cooker 8 is started in a situation where one air conditioner 5 has been started to operate first will be described.

  When the operation of one air conditioner 5 is started, an operation information signal is transmitted from the air conditioner to the power command device 10. Thereafter, when the cooker 8 is desired to be used, when the main power switch 95 is closed, the process proceeds to the cooking menu selection step as described in the first embodiment. If “automatic deep-fried food” is selected from the cooking menu such as “water heater”, “automatic deep-fried food”, “boiled food” using the operation unit 93, an operation information signal indicating that “automatic deep-fried food” has been selected is displayed on the power command device. 10 is transmitted. At that time, the cooking device 8 also transmits information indicating that the power consumption used is 2000 W at the maximum.

  The power command apparatus 10 performs a process for determining whether or not to permit cooking power (maximum 2000 W) for the “automatic deep-fried food”. In step ST1, information on power consumption of the air conditioner 5 and “other household appliances” (for example, the indoor lighting device 6 and the refrigerator) that are not registered in the “power control target device” is also obtained. That is, since power information is always obtained from a power sensor (not shown) inserted in the power circuit of each of these “other home appliances”, the power consumption of these “other home appliances” is also considered. It is determined whether or not the upper limit value permitted by the breaker BK is exceeded. This determination is performed by a power excess amount determination circuit (also referred to as “comparator”, not shown) in the power command device 10.

  If the upper limit value is exceeded, the power reduction width is determined by the power consumption reduction width determining means (not shown) (ST2).

  Next, in the control device 143 of the power command device 10, “environment data” such as temperature, humidity, and air cleanliness (such as the amount of dust) of the living space 3 where the heating cooker 8 is located through the integrated environment detection unit 16 Obtained from the composite sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 14.

  In the next step ST3, the air quality of the living space 3 is determined using the environmental data acquired through the integrated environment detection unit 16. For example, the air in the living space is clean with few harmful substances and dust, and the air temperature and humidity are judged not to be harsh conditions that are harmful to the health of the occupants, compared to a predetermined reference value. To do.

  In addition, as described in the first embodiment, the latest operation status of “air quality improvement devices” such as the air conditioner 5, the air purifier 7, the exhaust device 9 and the like is also grasped by the operation information signals from these devices. To do. The operating air purifier 7 has the condition that “simultaneous operation is avoided” with the air purifier 7 in any of the “automatic fried food” and “manual fried food” in the cooking menu of the heating cooker 8. Is included in the control program of the control unit 22 of the power command apparatus 10 in advance, and in step ST3, a determination result that the air cleaner 7 is temporarily stopped at an appropriate timing is issued. In addition, the power reduction width determined in ST2 is transmitted to the air conditioner 5 as a command signal (power reduction command signal).

  In response to this power reduction command signal, the air conditioner 5 reduces power consumption (ST4). When the power reduction width is 300 W, the air conditioner 5 changes the air conditioning target temperature from 26 ° C. to 28 ° C., so that the air conditioner 5 consumes the most electric power. The rotation speed of the machine (not shown) is reduced, and the operation is changed to energy saving operation with reduced power consumption. Note that, based on the correlation between the target temperature and the current indoor temperature, the amount of power used when the rotational speed of the electric compressor is reduced is obtained in advance through experiments and the data is stored on the air conditioner 5 side. Therefore, the operating condition of the electric compressor (not shown) for the power reduction operation is instantaneously determined according to the power reduction request from the power command device 10.

  Thereafter, the air conditioner 5 notifies the power command apparatus 10 that the power used has been reduced by 300 W as an operation information signal. Thereafter, the power command apparatus 10 transmits a signal (a heating cooking start permission signal) for permitting the cooking device 8 to start cooking of the requested “automatic deep-fried food” to the cooking device 8.

Then, the heating cooker 8 drives a predetermined inverter circuit and starts a heating operation. Thus, the preheating process (see FIG. 22) is started.
Although it is possible to command the start of operation for the exhaust device 9 simultaneously with the start of operation of the heating cooker 8, it is not normal for oil smoke or steam to be generated simultaneously with the start of heating cooking, so the consumption of electricity is suppressed. Therefore, in the fourth embodiment, the timing of the operation start command for the exhaust device 9 is delayed by a certain time from the operation start of the heating cooker 8. For example, an exhaust operation start command signal is transmitted to the exhaust device 9 after a lapse of 1 minute from the transmission of the cooking start permission signal.

  In the first stage, the exhaust device 9 is operated in the “weak operation” mode. After that, when the temperature detection circuit 144 of the heating cooker 8 detects a predetermined temperature TX (for example, 80 ° C.) at which the exhaust operation is started, the heating cooker 8 sends the “first exhaust operation recommendation signal” to the power command device 10. Send to. In this Embodiment 4, since the electric power instruction | command apparatus 10 has already transmitted the start command signal of exhaust operation after 1 minute has passed since transmitting the heating cooking start permission signal at this time, this heating cooker 8 However, depending on the type of the power command device 10, it is assumed that the exhaust command start command signal as described above may not be automatically transmitted, and such safety measures are taken. ing.

  Next, the power command device 10 transmits a temporary stop command signal to the air purifier 30 30 seconds after transmitting the cooking start permission signal. Then, the air cleaner 7 stops operation temporarily.

After that, when the temperature detection circuit 144 of the heating cooker 8 detects a predetermined temperature TY (for example, 100 ° C.) for switching the exhaust operation to the “medium operation” mode, the heating cooker 8 receives the “second exhaust operation recommendation signal”. Is transmitted to the power command apparatus 10.
Further, in the fourth embodiment, for example, after 1 minute has passed since the cooking start permission signal is transmitted, the cooking device 8 transmits an exhaust operation start command signal to the exhaust device 9. If the predetermined temperature TY is detected at a time before the lapse of 1 minute, a “second exhaust operation recommendation signal” is transmitted to the power command device 10 at that time.

In the fourth embodiment, regardless of the fact that the “second exhaust operation recommendation signal” is transmitted from the heating cooker 8, the power command device 10 itself is 90 seconds after transmitting the heating cooking start permission signal. Then, a command signal for switching the exhaust operation to the “medium operation” mode is transmitted to the exhaust device 9.
If a failure occurs in the signal transmission function on the heating cooker 8 side, or a failure occurs in the communication state between the heating cooker 8 side and the power command device 10, the “second exhaust operation recommendation signal” is output as power. Even when the command device 10 cannot receive, the exhaust device 9 is automatically switched from the “weak operation” mode to the “medium operation” mode, and the exhaust capability can be enhanced before a large amount of oil smoke or steam is generated.

With the above configuration, the cooling air that has cooled the left and right IH coils 60L and 60R toward the exhaust port 77 is bent at the water receiving portion 130 via the ventilation window 129 and the communication port 163. It changes to the rising airflow.

  Furthermore, the heating cooker 8 according to the fourth embodiment has a main body case 53 supported at a predetermined position of the kitchen furniture 15, and an object to be heated (above the main body case is placed inside the main body case 53 ( An IH coil 60 that heats the first cooking utensil 62 and the like, and an exhaust air passage 104 that is supplied with cooling air from the first blower BM1 and forcibly cools the upper space 113 of the main body case, An exhaust port 77 serving as a terminal portion of the exhaust air passage 104 is provided at the rear portion of the main body case 53, and the exhaust port 77 extends continuously in a lateral width direction of the main body case 53 over a predetermined length W1. The exhaust opening has a width W1 larger than a maximum outer diameter A of the IH coil (heating unit) 60.

  According to the heating cooker 8, an exhaust flow wall is formed behind the steam or oil smoke generated from an object to be heated such as a cooking utensil placed above the IH coil 60 serving as a heating unit. It is possible to effectively prevent contamination of the walls around the cooking device 8.

  Further, if the storage room 70 is provided, it is possible to store articles, seasonings, and the like used during cooking, and it can be expected to improve the convenience for the user.

Furthermore, the heating cooker 8 has a main body case 53 supported at a predetermined position of the kitchen furniture 15, and an object to be heated placed above the main body case 53 is placed inside the main body case (upper space 113). An IH coil 60 for heating, and an exhaust air passage 104 that is supplied with cooling air from the first blower BM1 and forcibly cools the internal space of the main body case 53,
The IH coil 60 is disposed on a center line CL1 that bisects the main body case left and right, and is further disposed on a center line CL2 that bisects the main body case 53 front and rear.
An exhaust port 77 serving as a terminal portion of the exhaust air passage 104 is provided at the rear portion of the main body case 53. The exhaust port 77 is continuous in the lateral width direction of the main body case 53 and bisects the main body case left and right. The central opening CL is symmetrically opened to the left and right over a predetermined length W1, and the width W1 of the exhaust port 77 is made larger than the maximum outer diameter A of the IH coil 60. ing.

  According to this heating cooker 8, the exhaust gas flows to the back side of the cooking appliance 8 corresponding to steam, oily smoke, etc. generated from an object to be heated such as a cooking utensil placed at the center of the top plate 55 covering the upper part of the main body case 53. It can be expected that the walls of the cooking oven 8 can be effectively prevented from being contaminated.

  In addition, since the exhaust port 77 is arranged with a uniform length in the left-right direction with the central portion of the main body case 53 as a boundary, the exhaust flow can be supplied without being biased to one side behind the heating cooker 8, It can be expected that exhaust such as steam and smoke generated from the heated object is stably performed without being affected by the position of the cooking.

(Configuration of terminal equipment)
Next, the configuration of the terminal device 43 will be described with reference to FIG.
The terminal device 43 is a high-function mobile phone called a smartphone, a portable tablet-type personal computer, or the like.
The terminal device 43 includes a display unit 183 having a liquid crystal display screen, an operation input unit (operation unit) 184 having a plurality of input keys operated by the user, a wireless interface unit (communication unit) 185, and an attitude detection unit 186. And a control unit 187 with a built-in microcomputer, and a notification unit 188 with a built-in small vibrator that outputs a plurality of types of synthesized voices according to the operation scene and generates vibration as necessary. When this vibrator emits sound (sounds), it can be vibrated in synchronism with it, and even in situations where the operation status etc. cannot be reliably transmitted to the user only by the display unit 183, sound and vibration can be used. It can be expected to make up for it.

  The communication unit 185 includes two input / output units, one of which is a wireless interface unit 185A that performs predetermined communication with the communication circuit network (communication network) 18. The other one is a wireless interface unit 185 </ b> B that performs short-range wireless communication between the communication unit 23 of the power command device 10 and the short-range wireless communication unit 180 of the cooking device 8.

  The display unit 182, the operation unit 184, the wireless input / output unit 185, the attitude detection unit 186, a control unit 187, which will be described later, and a notification unit 188 are connected to each other through a signal line (not shown). The posture detection unit 186 includes a gyro sensor, detects the posture when the user tilts the terminal device 44 (left / right / front / rear direction), and outputs a signal indicating the posture to the control unit 187. To do.

  The control unit 187 broadly includes a central processing unit (CPU) 189 and a storage unit 190 formed mainly of semiconductor storage elements. The CPU 189 executes processing of the entire terminal device 43 in accordance with a ROM stored in the storage unit 190 and a control program stored in the RAM unit 191, and the ROM, Data read out from the RAM unit 191 or generated in the course of executing the process is stored in the ROM / RAM unit 191.

  The storage unit 190 includes an application processing unit 192 that can store application software for the home appliance EE (at least the cooking device 8 in the fourth embodiment). The application processing unit 192 also stores application software for the input unit (liquid crystal display screen) 24 of the power command apparatus 10. The software of the application processing unit 192 may be installed from the outside of the terminal device 43, or may be stored in the storage unit 190 from the time of manufacture / shipment of the terminal device 43.

  The terminal device 43 can download desired application software from the external server 19 via the communication network 18 and store it in the application processing unit 192 of the storage unit 190. .

  When the CPU 189 executes processing according to the application processing unit 192, the functions of a predetermined reception processing unit 193, transmission processing unit 194, communication establishment unit 195, display control unit 196, and selection confirmation unit 197 are realized. The

The terminal device 43 includes a position detection unit 198 that detects the current position of the terminal device itself, a position information storage unit 199, and a distance information calculation unit 200.
The position detecting unit 198 has a function of receiving a GPS signal transmitted from the GPS satellite 201, analyzing the received signal, and calculating a current position of the terminal device 43 on the earth. In other words, the position detection unit 198 can grasp the current position of the terminal device 43 on the earth in real time.

  The distance information calculation unit 200 determines the distance to the target based on the position information of the object (referred to as “target object”) registered in advance in the position information storage unit 198 and the current position information with the terminal device 43. It has a function to calculate the distance. The calculated distance information is output to the control unit 187 as a “distance determination information signal”. Then, the distance determination information signal is transmitted from the control unit 187 to the outside via the wireless input / output unit 185. In this embodiment, the calculated distance information is, for example, in units of 100 m, but other information may be used. This can be set by operating the input unit 184 and selecting by the user from a certain unit.

  When the terminal device 43 registers and sets the power command device 10 as a kind of target, all the home appliances EE existing in the living space 3 in which the power command device 10 is installed, for example, the heating cooker 8 Since there is no difference of about several meters, there is no need to set and register each home electric appliance EE as a target. However, in the fourth embodiment, since the “remote operation signal indicating the reserved operation condition” and the “reference signal for execution of reserved operation” are transmitted from the terminal device 43 to the individual home appliance EE, EE is set and registered as a target. This setting registration may be performed once for each home electric appliance EE unless the terminal device 43 is changed or the living space 3 is changed by moving, but details will be described later.

  When the power command device (integrated management device) 10 is used, it is not always necessary to individually register the information on the installation position of each home appliance EE in the terminal device 43. The power command device (integrated management device) 10 The registration may be performed collectively by causing the terminal device 43 to read the installation position information once.

  The control unit 187 also has a function of monitoring a temporal change in the distance determination information signal, and has a function of calculating a moving speed of the terminal device 43 from a change value at regular intervals. For example, a change in distance indicated by the distance determination information signal is calculated at intervals of 1 minute, and “movement speed information” such as “100 m / min” and “300 m / min” is generated, and this is simultaneously with the “distance determination information signal”. The transmission operation is performed after the transmission or the signal transmission. For this reason, in the power command device 10 that has received the “distance determination information signal” and the “movement speed information” from the terminal device 43, the power command device 10 calculates the estimated time for the terminal device 43 to move to its position and reach it. Can be obtained.

  In the fourth embodiment, the power command device 10 is interposed between the terminal device 43 and the heating cooker 8 and is not configured to perform direct communication. Even when the heating cooker 8 according to the fourth embodiment is adopted, the terminal device 43 moves to the installation position of the heating cooker 8 by receiving the “distance determination information signal” and the “movement speed information”. It has a function that can determine the time to reach.

(Initial settings of terminal device and home appliance)
When a “remote operation signal indicating a reserved operation condition”, a “reference signal for executing a reserved operation” or a “reference signal for executing a reserved operation” is transmitted from a specific terminal device 43, in the fourth embodiment, these various signals Is directly received by the power command device 10, not the home appliance EE such as the heating cooker 8.

  First, the specific information for specifying the terminal device 43 can be read and registered in the control unit 22 through the NFC input / output unit (not shown) of the power command apparatus 10. Thereby, thereafter, various communications can be performed from the communication network 18 to the power command device 10 through the router 17. The terminal device 43 is also installed with a control program for performing cooperative operation from the power command apparatus 10 side, and can acquire specific information of the power command apparatus 10.

  In the fourth embodiment, since the “remote operation signal indicating the reserved operation condition” and the “reference signal for executing the reserved operation” to be described later are transmitted from the terminal device 43 to the individual home appliances EE, the cooking device 8 Is registered as one of the targets. In this case, the specific information for identifying the terminal device 43 can be read and registered in the control unit 22 through the NFC communication unit 180 (see FIG. 36) of the heating cooker 8 first. The terminal device 43 side is also installed with a control program for operating in cooperation with the heating cooker 8, whereby various communications can be performed from the communication network 18 via the router 17 and the power command device 10 thereafter. . The terminal device 43 can also acquire the unique information and identification information of the cooking device 8.

  As described with reference to FIG. 40, the terminal device 43 accesses the information server 19 to download the application software for controlling the power command device 10 and the heating cooker 8, and the power command device 10 and the heating cooker 8. A control program for performing cooperative operation may be installed.

  One method of setting and registering the heating cooker 8 and the power command device 10 as a target (target position) uses the terminal device 43 in the living space 3 to activate the current position information detection function of the terminal device 43. . Then, since the current position information is displayed on the display unit 182 by the terminal device 43, the information is read and registered in the control device 143 through the NFC communication unit 180 of the cooking device 8 in that state. Thereby, in the terminal device 43, the installation position information of the heating cooker 8 is registered.

  Similarly, the current position information is read by the terminal device 43, and the current position information is read and registered by the control unit 22 through the NFC input / output unit (not shown) of the power command device 6. Thereby, the installation position information of the power command device 10 is registered in the terminal device 43. In addition, as another method, the information (the latitude / longitude information, the address code based on accurate address information, etc.) of the house in the actual living space is directly transferred to the control unit 134 by the input unit 131 of the terminal device 43. There is a way to input.

A case where the operation of the heating cooker 8 is started using the terminal device 43 will be described.
In the fourth embodiment, one of the features is that the cooking menu can be selected by the terminal device 43 and the selection result can be input to the control device 143 via the NFC communication unit 180 of the heating cooker 8. .

  The terminal device 43 downloads application software for the heating cooker 8 from the server 19 in advance. Prior to cooking, the application software is started (step SS1), and a display for setting cooking conditions of the cooking device 8 is displayed on the display unit 183 (SS2).

  On the display screen 183, for example, three kinds of cooking menus such as “boiling water”, “boiled food”, and “fried food” are displayed in an icon format (SS3). Therefore, a desired cooking menu can be selected by touching one of the icons (SS4).

  Next, since a message for confirming whether the selected cooking menu is acceptable or an icon displaying the selected menu name is displayed on the display unit 183, the display unit 183 is touched (SS5 to SS7). Now that the selection of the cooking menu on the terminal device 43 side has been completed, the terminal device 43 is brought closer to the NFC communication unit 180 of the heating cooker 8 in accordance with the audio guide from the notification unit 188. In this case, the heating cooker 8 turns on the main power switch 95 first. The NFC communication part 180 can start communication by making the terminal device 43 approach, and can read the information of the selected cooking menu with respect to the heating cooker 8 side (SS8).

  For safety reasons, the cooking device 8 does not start cooking simply by bringing the terminal device 43 close to it, so by pressing a start key (not shown) of the operation unit 93 provided on the upper front side of the top plate 55. The cooking starts.

  39, when the cooking device 8 is registered in the power command apparatus 10 as “power control target device”, a start key (not shown) of the operation unit 93 as described above is pressed. Cooking is not started just by pressing. Whether or not the selected cooking menu can be executed is determined by the power command device 10, and heating and cooking can be started only after the heating and cooking start permission signal from the power command device arrives.

In the cooking device 8 of the fourth embodiment, the same effect as that described in the first embodiment can be obtained.
Furthermore, in the heating cooker 8 of the fourth embodiment, the main body case 53 has an inclined surface portion 53J at the corners between the back surface and the bottom surface that are the rearmost portion,
Above the inclined surface portion 53J, an end portion of the exhaust air passage 104 reaching the exhaust port 77 is disposed,
A component (water receiving portion 130) that constitutes a bent space portion for changing the direction of the cooling air after cooling the heating sources 60L and 60R in the upward direction is disposed at the end portion. Therefore, the cooling air that moves in the horizontal direction through the upper space 113 is changed in the horizontal direction immediately before the end of the exhaust air passage 104, and the airflow that flows vertically or obliquely upward from the rear portion of the top plate 55. Can be formed.
As a result, it can be expected that hot air and oil smoke will move upward toward the exhaust device 9 and increase exhaust efficiency.

  Further, when there is a liquid that enters through the exhaust port 77 at the bottom of the water receiving portion 130, a recess for receiving the liquid is formed, so that the inner lower portion of the cooking device 8 or the cooling unit CU is formed. Such an effect can be expected that such foreign matter (liquid) can be prevented from entering a high-voltage electrical component or the like disposed inside the device.

Embodiment 5. FIG.
FIG. 42 is a plan view showing the heating cooker according to the fifth embodiment. This heating cooker 8 is a built-in induction heating cooker in which one heating port spaced apart at a predetermined interval is provided on the left and right of the top plate 55. In addition, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to Embodiment 1 of FIGS. 1-22, and the overlapping description is abbreviate | omitted.

  In FIG. 42, the first blower BM1 is arranged inside the main body case 53, and the air in the kitchen furniture 15 sucked from the lower side surface, the lower back surface, or the like of the main body case 53 is used as two IH coils as cooling air. Distribute and supply to 60L and 60R. For this distribution, an air guide plate, a duct and the like are installed in the upper space 113 although not shown.

The heating cooker 8 has a main body case 53 supported at a predetermined position of the kitchen furniture 15, and heats an object to be heated placed above the main body case 53 in the upper space 113 of the main body case 53. Two IH coils 60L and 60R, and an exhaust air passage 104 that is supplied with cooling air from the first blower BM1 and forcibly cools the upper space 113 of the main body case 53. Two exhaust ports 77 serving as end portions of the exhaust air passage 104 are provided at the rear part.
That is, the two exhaust ports 77 are formed in a horizontal row with a gap W4, and the overall width dimension including the non-exhaust portion of the gap W4 is W3.

The IH coils 60 </ b> L and 60 </ b> R are two apart from each other in the left-right direction of the main body case 53, and the exhaust port 77 includes two exhaust ports 77. Each has predetermined lengths W5L and W5R, and has a maximum width dimension W3 in which the two exhaust ports 77 are arranged larger than a maximum width dimension W2 including the two IH coils 60L and 60R. It is a configuration.
The width WB in the front-rear direction of the exhaust port 77 is constant over the entire exhaust port 77.

  According to the heating cooker 8, the wall of the exhaust flow is provided behind the steam or oil smoke generated from the heated object such as the cooking utensil on the two heating units (IH coils 60L and 60R). It can be formed, and it can be expected to effectively prevent contamination of the wall around the cooking device 8.

  Further, if the storage room 70 is provided, it is possible to store articles, seasonings, and the like used during cooking, and it can be expected to improve the convenience for the user.

Furthermore, the heating cooker 8 has a main body case 53 supported at a predetermined position of the kitchen furniture 15,
Inside the main body case, IH coils 60L and 60R for heating an object to be heated placed above the main body case and cooling air from the first blower are supplied to force the inner space of the main body case 53. An exhaust air passage 104 for cooling,
The heating source consisting of the IH coil is disposed on each side of the center case CL1 that bisects the main body case 53 in the right and left sides, one at a symmetrical position.
An exhaust port 77 serving as a terminal portion of the exhaust air passage 104 is provided at the rear portion of the main body case 53,
The exhaust port 77 is composed of two exhaust ports, and each exhaust port 77 is symmetrical to the left and right across the center line CL1 and has predetermined lengths W5L and W5R in the lateral width direction of the main body case 53. Each has
The maximum width dimension W3 in which the two exhaust ports 77 are arranged is larger than the maximum width dimension W2 including the two IH coils (heating units).

According to this heating cooker 8, steam, oily smoke, etc. generated from an object to be heated such as the first cooking utensil 62, the second cooking utensil 90, etc. that are placed directly above the left and right IH coils 60L, 60R of the main body case 53. Can be effectively guided to the exhaust device 9 side.
That is, according to the fifth embodiment, an ascending air current can be created by the clean air from the exhaust air passage 104 at the rear part of the main body case 53. For this reason, the vapor | steam, oil smoke, etc. which generate | occur | produce from the above-mentioned to-be-heated material can be guide | induced to the exhaust apparatus 9 side efficiently.

  In addition, since the exhaust port is arranged with the central part of the main body case as a boundary, the exhaust flow can be supplied without being biased to one side (left side and right side) behind the cooking device, and steam generated from the heated object It can be expected that the exhaust gas such as oil and smoke will be stably performed without being affected by the position of cooking, and the wall 11 of the living space adjacent to the kitchen furniture 15 and the furniture can be prevented from being soiled.

  In each of the embodiments described above, the induction heating cooker 8 includes an IH coil. However, a rapid heating heater called an infrared heater or a radiant heater may be adopted as the heating unit. Moreover, you may use together with an IH coil. Furthermore, a heating cooker using a burner that uses city gas, LP gas, or the like as a fuel may be used.

  Moreover, although the temperature of the to-be-heated object (1st cooking appliance 62 etc.) and the top plate 55 was measured and the preheating temperature etc. at the time of automatic fried food cooking were detected, the to-be-cooked object put into the to-be-heated object Or the temperature of the cooking oil may be directly measured by a measuring means such as a temperature probe to control the cooking state and process.

For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2009-125992 proposes a temperature detection unit that comes into direct contact with a cooked food in a cooking container.
Similarly, JP-A-2006-125992 discloses temperature detection means for detecting the temperature of an object to be measured, wireless communication means for transmitting temperature information detected by the temperature detection means, and supplying power to the wireless communication means. The power supply unit includes a power detection unit, a temperature detection unit, a wireless communication unit, and a casing that houses the power supply unit in a watertight state. The power supply unit stores a power receiving coil that receives power by electromagnetic induction, and stores power received by the power receiving coil. A cooking device having a storage battery is proposed.
Accordingly, the temperature detection circuit 144 described in the first embodiment of the present invention may employ such a direct temperature measurement method.

  Further, the exhaust port 77 is not limited to being formed in the outer frame 54 as in the first embodiment. When the outer frame 54 is not provided, it may be formed on the rear partition plate 103 or may be formed on another member. For example, the upper end portion of the rear plate 53H of the main body case 53 may be extended horizontally behind the top plate 55, and the exhaust port 77 may be formed in that portion. The end portion of the exhaust air passage 104 may be covered with the exhaust cover 78 from above, and the exhaust port 77 may be directly formed in the exhaust cover 78. Furthermore, an exhaust port 77 may be provided in the top plate 55, and the exhaust port may be used also as the final exhaust port 128. That is, in this case, no cover or the like is provided above the exhaust port 77 of the top plate 55, and the exhaust is directly exhausted from the exhaust port 77 to the living space.

  Further, a second blower is provided inside the lower space 112 and the storage chamber 70, and the air sucked from the outside of the main body 8A by this blower is supplied to the storage chamber 70, and finally the air sent into the storage chamber 70 is finally supplied. The air may be discharged from the exhaust air passage 104 to the outside of the main body 8A via the exhaust port 77. In this case, air inside the storage chamber is positively discharged, so that air does not stay in the storage chamber 70. For this reason, even if there is hot air inside the storage chamber, there is an advantage that it can be discharged from the exhaust air passage.

  Further, in each of the above-described embodiments, the exhaust device 9 is distinguished by the size of the exhaust capability by the classification of “weak operation” mode, “medium operation” mode, and “strong operation” mode. It is not limited to operating the exhaust device 9 in such three sections, it may be a two-stage strength, or may control four or more stages.

  In the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, since the central partition plate 105 that divides the rear of the rear partition plate 103 into two left and right is provided, the end of the exhaust air passage 104 is the left window 104L. And the right window 104R. That is, the downstream side of the rear partition plate 103 in the flow of the cooling air is substantially divided into two air paths by the central partition plate 105, and the final openings are the left and right windows 104L and 104R. . Therefore, the cooling air in the upper space 113 that has passed through the ventilation window provided in the rear partition plate 103 does not mix immediately after the passage.

  On the other hand, in the third embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, the cooling air that has passed through the ventilation window 129 and the air passage 177 provided in the rear partition plate 103 may be mixed immediately after the passage. Two exhaust ports 77 are reached.

  Furthermore, in the fourth embodiment, the inner side of the water receiving portion 130 has partition walls 181 at several locations in the left-right direction, and restricts the flow of cooling air in the lateral direction. There is no mixing. That is, the partition wall 181 is actively partitioned at the end of the exhaust air passage 104. In addition, the meaning of being positive means that it is not the structure which maintains airtightness which interrupts | blocks an air flow completely with a sealing material.

  For this reason, in the fourth embodiment, if a foreign object (such as a dust cloth) is placed just above the left exhaust port 77 (77L) and the exhaust is hindered, the cooling air in the water receiver 130 is Hardly moves to the right and is exhausted in a concentrated manner from the right exhaust port 77 (77R).

  However, when the exhaust on the downstream side from the ventilation window 129 provided in the rear partition plate 103 stagnate, in the upper space 113 immediately before reaching the rear partition plate 103, the flow of cooling air in the right direction naturally increases, As a result, the air after cooling the IH coils 60R and 60L, the inside of the cooling unit CU, and the like is discharged from the right exhaust port 77 (77R) into the upper space 113 without abnormally stagnation.

  For this reason, even if an abnormal situation occurs in which the exhaust port 77 on one side is blocked with a foreign substance as described above, the IH coils 60R and 60L inside the main body 8A, the inverter circuit board 117 in the cooling unit CU, etc. Incurring overheating is avoided. Further, since an exhaust flow of clean air is maintained from the exhaust port 77, an effect of guiding steam, oily smoke, and the like generated from an object to be heated on the top plate 55 toward the exhaust device 9 can be expected.

  Even in such an abnormal situation, as described in the embodiment, the exhaust port 77 is longer than the maximum outer diameter (for example, about 20 cm) of the IH coils 60R and 60L. For example, the air after cooling from a narrow exhaust port having a width of about 10 cm is not strong and is not blown out locally (concentrated). A wall of a clean air flow directed obliquely upward can be formed in a wide range in the lateral direction.

  As described above, it is detected that an abnormal situation has occurred in which the exhaust port 77 on one side is blocked by a foreign object, and the operation is automatically changed to an operation for enhancing the blowing capacity of the first blower BM1, or a voice synthesizer. 145 or the like may be used to alert the user (including prompting the user to check whether or not the exhaust port 77 is blocked). For example, when a pair of pressure sensors are installed to detect the pressure in the right half and the left half in the water receiver 130, and a pressure difference greater than a certain value occurs in the pressure measured by the two pressure sensors. The control device 143 may perform a corresponding operation such as a change in the air flow rate or a warning as described above.

  In addition, a partition wall is provided so as to completely divide the end portion on the outlet side of the exhaust air passage 104 into a right exhaust port 77 (77R) and a left exhaust port 77 (77L). Thus, the exhaust air passage 104 may be branched into two left and right to form two independent exhaust air passages. As used herein, the partition wall partitions the end portion of the exhaust air passage 104 up to the exhaust port 77 into two, like the central partition plate 105 shown in the first embodiment.

  Further, the left and right IH coils 60L and 60R may be used in combination with a plurality of coils wound not only in a donut shape (annular shape) but also in a double or triple. Further, the copper plate may be cut out in a circular shape or the like to constitute one coil, and is not limited to a coil wound with a thin copper wire or aluminum wire.

  In each embodiment, the planar shape of the IH coils 60L and 60R is close to a perfect circle, but may be a rectangle or an ellipse. For example, when an elliptical IH coil is installed so as to be long in the front-rear direction, the maximum minor axis dimension of the elliptical IH coil becomes the maximum horizontal dimension of the IH coil.

  The embodiment disclosed this time should be considered as illustrative in all points and not restrictive. The substantial scope of the present invention is defined by the terms of the claims, rather than the description above, and is intended to include any modifications within the scope and meaning equivalent to the terms of the claims.

  The heating cooker according to the present invention can be widely used not only in kitchens of ordinary houses but also in kitchens such as public facilities and stores.
