First, when there is no thermoelectromotive force in the thermocouple T, the output of the comparator 34 is at the H level by the resistors 8, 9, and 10. However, when the thermo-electromotive force is over a certain level, the comparator
The input voltage at 34 drops, and the output is inverted to L level.
As a result, the transistors 27, 31, and 30 operate to turn on the LED 32. Also, at the same time when the LED 32 lights up, the transistor 2
Since the capacitors 6 and 29 operate, the discharge of the electric charge from the capacitor 35 starts. When the voltage becomes equal to or lower than the voltage set by the resistors 19 and 20 (after a certain time t seconds), the output of the comparator 33 becomes H
Level, and the LED 32 goes out.

Effect of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, if the ignition lamp is provided, the ignition part where the combustion part such as the grill cannot be directly observed can be visually observed, though indirectly, while standing the ignition part where it cannot be directly observed. In addition, the lighting time of the display lamp is determined to be a certain fixed time, so that even a small-capacity battery such as a battery does not care much about the life.
