BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a rice cooker, and more particularly to a mounting structure for a body part incorporating a wire winding mechanism for a power wire and a sotowak.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional rice cooker is, as shown in FIG. 3, an outer side of a main body 1 including an inner pot, an outer pot for covering the inner pot and a heat source (not shown) for heating the inner pot. A cylindrical sotowak 20 having an upper and lower opening forming an outer shell is attached to the bottom of the sotowak 20 is closed by a bottom 20a which is separate from the sotowak 20, and the wire winding mechanism 19 is provided in the bottom 20a.
A heat source energization control means (not shown) was attached.
(For example, JP-A-1-144590)

[0003]

In such a conventional structure, since the main body 1 and the bottom 20a are divided when the internal wiring of the main body 1 is performed, the wiring on the main body side and the bottom 20a are separated.
The electric wire winding mechanism 19 and the energization control means on the side are separately assembled, and then the wiring is assembled between the two. This wiring may be short when the bottom 20a is attached to the main body 1, but if the wiring is short, the bottom 20a interferes and the internal wiring work cannot be performed. However, if the length is too long, the bottom 20a may be caught between the main body 1 and the electric wire 26.
Is free to move inside the body, and there is a problem that it may touch moving parts and high temperature parts. In the conventional configuration, it is difficult to set the length of the electric wire 26 that satisfies both, and both problems are involved. In addition, there is a problem that the electric wire 26 is required to be longer than the originally required length, resulting in an increase in cost.

Further, an electric wire 26 wired from various electric parts attached in the process of assembling the main body 1.
Cannot be bundled until the wire is finally connected to the wire winding mechanism 19 of the bottom 20a and the energization control means, and the loosened wire 26 interferes with the assembly, which makes the wiring work difficult. there were. In addition, the wires must be bound with the sotowak attached and the bottom half covered.
There was also a problem that it took time to assemble and increased costs.

[0005]

In order to solve such a conventional problem, in the present invention, the conventional bottom and sotowak are integrally molded to form a sotowak having a bottom, and the sotowak is not attached to the bottom but to the main body side. The electric wire winding mechanism and the energization control means were directly attached, and after the wiring binding work was completed, the bottomed cylindrical sotowak was attached so as to cover the entire main body. A power plug outlet is provided on the sotowak so that the power plug part of the wire winding mechanism can be exposed to the outside after attaching the sotowak.

[0006]

According to the structure of the present invention, the wiring can be bundled every time an electric component is attached in the process of assembling various electric components on the main body side, and the wire winding mechanism and the energization control means can be arranged on the main body portion like other electric components. It can be attached to the side for immediate wiring bundling. Finally, cover the bottom with Sotowak to complete the assembly. Therefore, the length of each electric wire can be set to the shortest distance to connect each electric part,
There are no problems such as touching hot parts. At the same time, the electric wire is short, sotowak and the bottom can be integrated, and the assembly is simple, so that it can be constructed at low cost and can be provided to consumers at low cost.

Bottomed cylindrical sotowak, 21 is a power plug outlet, 22 is a power plug, 23 is a control unit, 24
Is an energization control means, and 25 is a hinge part.

The outline of the structure is composed of a main body 1, a lid 2 and a socket 20, and the lid 2 is attached to the main body 1 by a hinge 25 so as to be openable and closable. An inner pot 3 is detachably housed inside the main body 1. The bonnet 6 is inserted from the inner surface side of the lid portion 2 into the lid ring 4 forming the inner surface of the lid portion 2 via the seal packing 5, and is fixed by the fixing screw 7. Finally, the lid 8 and the lid ring 4 which form the outer contour of the lid portion 2 are assembled. The seal packing 5 seals steam from the gap between the lid ring 4 and the horn vane 6 so that the steam does not enter the inside of the lid portion 2, and at the same time, the brim portion at the lower end abuts the upper end of the inner pot 3 to prevent the steam generated in the inner pot 3. It also acts as a seal to prevent leakage to the surrounding area. The horn 6 and the lid 8 are provided with holes, and the spaces between them are connected by steam holes 9 to form the above-mentioned discharge port. The hood 6 has a lid heater 1
0 and lid temperature sensor 11 are attached.

An outer pot 13 is attached to an upper frame 12 of the main body of the main body 1, and the rice cooker 1 is attached to the bottom of the outer pot 13.
4 and a bottom temperature sensor 15 are attached. When the inner pot 3 is housed in the main body 1, it comes into contact with the rice cooking heater 14 and the pot bottom temperature sensor 15 so that the rice cooker 14 heats the inner pot 3 and at the same time, the pot bottom temperature sensor 15 can detect the pot bottom temperature. Has been done. A heat retention heater 16 is wound around the side surface of the outer pot 13. Further, a heat shield plate 17 for shutting off the heat of the rice cooking heater 14 is attached to the lower surface of the outer pot 13, and a wire winding mechanism 19 and an energization control means 2 are attached to the lower surface of the heat shield plate 17 via a case 18.
4 is attached.

A bottomed cylindrical sotowak 20 having an upper surface opening which forms the outer shell of the main body 1 has a power plug outlet 21 at the bottom. The upper end of the sotowak 20 is fitted and fixed to the upper frame 12 of the main body. At this time, the power plug 22 of the wire winding mechanism 19 is connected to the power plug outlet 2 of the socket 20.
Go outside from 1. A control unit 23 is provided inside the main body unit 1, the lid temperature sensor 11 and the pot bottom temperature sensor 15 are connected, and further the energization control unit 24 of the rice cooking heater 14, the lid heater 10, and the heat retention heater 16 is connected. Has been done.

The procedure for assembling the essential parts of this embodiment will be described below. A rice cooking heater 14 and a pot bottom temperature sensor 15 are attached to the bottom of the outer pot 13, and a heat retaining heater 16 is wound around the outer periphery of the outer pot 13. Next, the main frame 1
2 is attached to the upper end of the outer pot 13, and a heat shield plate 17 is attached to the bottom of the outer pot 13. The wire winding mechanism 19 is attached to the case 18, and by fixing the case 18 to the heat shield plate 17, the wire winding mechanism 19 is attached to the main body 1.
Fixed on the side. The energization control means 24 is also attached to the case 18 so as to be located on the lower surface thereof, and the electric wire 26 coming out of the electric wire winding mechanism 19 is wired in this state to the rice cooking heater 14, the energization control means 24, the heat retention heater 16 and the like. , Can be bound (state of FIG. 2). Next, the sotowak 20 is put on and fitted and fixed to the upper frame 12 of the main body. A power plug outlet 21 is provided in the sotowak 20 so that a part or all of the electric wire winding mechanism 19 can be installed in the sotowak 2
Even if 0 is attached, the power plug 22 of the electric wire winding mechanism 19 can be pulled out because it goes out.

[0013]

[Effects of the Invention] Since the present invention has the wire winding mechanism and the energization control means assembled on the main body side before the attachment of the socket, the wiring work can be performed efficiently. Moreover, the length of each electric wire can be set to the shortest distance to connect each electric part, and there is no problem of being caught in or touching a high temperature part. At the same time, the electric wire is short and sotowak and the bottom are integrally formed, so that the assembly is easy and the cost can be reduced, so that the consumer can be provided with an inexpensive rice cooker.
