[0001] The present invention relates to the use of gas as fuel.
Regarding a combustion device to be burned, a gas combustion device that mainly measures a gas pressure in the vicinity of a nozzle and controls the gas amount to be a predetermined gas amount based on the measurement, so that stable combustion can be performed irrespective of a change in supply gas pressure of a combustion control unit. It is about.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIGS. 25 to 27 show a gas cooker as an example of this type of conventional burning appliance. FIG. 25 is a front perspective view of a conventional gas cooker, and FIG.
FIG. 27 is a schematic view of the structure of the stove. FIG.
As shown in FIG. 1, the conventional gas cooker includes a stove burner 1, a temperature sensor 2, a combustor 3, an ignition / extinguishing button 4, a heating power control lever 5, a grill 6, and an operation panel 7,
The operation panel 7 shown in FIG. 26 includes a display tube 8 for displaying time and temperature, LEDs 9 for displaying various cooking modes, keys 10 for setting various cooking modes, and the like. For example, when setting tempura cooking, a "tempura key" 10 is depressed, and a target temperature is set with a "saru, rising key" 11 while watching the numerical value displayed on the display tube 8. FIG. 27 is a schematic view of the structure of the stove. When the ignition / extinguishing button 4 is pressed, the ignition switch 18 is turned on, and the original electromagnetic valve 12 and the temperature control valve 14 are energized via the control board 19 and are opened. Becomes The gas passes through the original solenoid valve 12, passes through the temperature control valve 14 and the bypass key 15 via the manual valve 13, passes through the thermal power control needle 16, and is regulated at the maximum flow rate by the main nozzle 17 to be supplied to the burner 1. At the same time, the igniter 20 is turned on via the control board 19 to discharge from the ignition plug 21, the burner 1 starts burning, the thermocouple 22 receives heat from the burner 1, and transfers the thermoelectromotive force to the control board to continue burning. Becomes

To adjust the heating power in this state, the amount of combustion is adjusted by operating the heating power control lever 5 and moving the heating power adjustment needle 16, or turning on and off the power of the temperature control valve 14 during automatic temperature control. By letting
The configuration was such that the amount of combustion was controlled by the bypass key 15 or the main nozzle 17.

[0004] Further, when changing the gas type, such as when switching homes, the bypass key 15 has a heating power adjustment needle nozzle 16 and a main nozzle 17.
Parts such as the damper 23 for taking in primary air and the like need to be replaced and adjusted.

[0005]

However, the configuration as in the above-mentioned conventional example has the following problems.

[0006] (1) The conventional thermal power adjusting method is to adjust the thermal power of the thermal power adjusting needle 16 or to perform only switching between strong and weak combustion using an electromagnetic valve, and measure and control the amount of combustion to perform combustion even if the supply gas pressure fluctuates. The amount could not be controlled to a constant. Therefore, the allowable range of supply gas pressure is very wide,
For example, in the case of 13A gas type, the minimum gas pressure is 100mmH2
O, center gas pressure 200mmH2O, maximum gas pressure 250mmH2O, the thermal power restriction is required to secure the thermoelectromotive force of the thermocouple to prevent misfire even at 100mmH2O, always considering the safety factor of 40% The result was to provide a combustion appliance that could not be squeezed by the thermal throttle. At the time of automatic temperature control, the temperature control valve causes a strong flame and a low flame combustion to cause a rapid flame change, giving the user an uneasy feeling. The sound was frequent and harsh. Further, when foreign matter adheres to the mechanism of the flow control means, it is necessary to take a measure in a case where the amount of combustion cannot be reduced to a small amount due to an abnormal clearance of the expansion mechanism.

[0007]

[0008]

(2) When the pressure is adjusted while detecting the pressure with a gas pressure sensor, a coarse adjustment and a fine adjustment are classified according to the pressure adjustment accuracy and ability of the throttle mechanism and the response speed of the gas pressure detection ability. If the heating power adjustment time is not shortened, it is necessary to take measures against boiling of the food and occurrence of spillage.

(3) Since the conventional apparatus does not have a function of detecting an abnormal supply gas pressure (insufficient gas supply due to empty LPG cylinder, broken rubber tube, half-opening of the gas main stopper, etc.),
For example, a single stove can be used, but if two stoves are used, it is a simple event such as weak heating power, ignited but immediately extinguished, but the user could not easily find it, and a service call often occurred.

(4) In the conventional gas appliance,
Since the supply gas pressure fluctuates greatly and the standard gas pressure and the maximum gas pressure change by about 40% depending on the type of gas, there is a risk of causing burns due to abnormal rise in temperature of the body and abnormal combustion due to abnormal gas pressure. And other issues.

[0012]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, a first means of the present invention is a burner for burning a combustible gas, a nozzle for supplying a combustible gas to the burner, and a nozzle for supplying the burner gas to the nozzle portion.

A heating power setting means for selecting from a plurality of heating powers; a heating power-setting gas pressure determining means for replacing the plurality of heating powers with gas pressures; and a central control means connected to the heating power setting means and the gas pressure detecting means. The central control means sets the combustion amount of the burner to the set heating power (ignition,

A configuration in which the driving speed of the driving unit is controlled to be early or late.
Then, it is configured to accurately and quickly stop at a predetermined stop position.

As a second means, the gas pressure detecting means is configured to detect the gas pressure as a relative value with respect to the atmospheric pressure, and the gas flowing into the pressure sensing part of the gas pressure detecting means is controlled by the flow rate controlling means and the nozzle. It is characterized in that a flow path communicated between the two is made to flow through a flow rate regulating section.

[0014] As a third means, the flow rate control means comprises throttle means for varying the flow rate of combustible gas supplied to the nozzle, and drive means for driving the throttle means.
And when setting the minimum heating power, it has means for detecting the gas pressure of the minimum heating power and stopping the driving means, and means for stopping at the preset minimum heating power position, and setting the minimum heating power even when the minimum heating power position is reached. When the pressure is higher than the gas pressure, the driving means is stopped by giving priority to the minimum heating power position, and the combustion is continued.

[0015]

As a second means, a gas type switching means for switching and setting the type of gas to be used is provided, and the minimum supply gas pressure is stored in advance in the storage section of the central control means for each gas type. When the gas pressure detected by the gas pressure detecting means is lower than the predetermined gas pressure in the state where the position detecting means for determining that the maximum heating power position is provided is provided, a warning and a central control means are provided. It is characterized in that at least one operation of stopping the supply of the combustible gas to the burner is performed.

As a third means, a gas type switching means for switching and setting the type of gas to be used is provided, and the maximum supply gas pressure is stored in advance in the storage section of the central control means for each gas type, and the throttle means of the flow rate control means is provided. When the maximum heating power is set by the heating power setting means in a state where the position detection means for determining that the heating power is at the maximum heating power position is provided, the gas pressure detected by the gas pressure detection means becomes the gas type switching means. When the gas pressure is higher than the maximum gas pressure of the gas type set by the above, the central control means drives the flow rate control means to adjust the gas pressure detected by the gas pressure detection means to the maximum use gas pressure.

The present invention has the following effects by the above-described configuration.

(1) The pressure is determined by the gas pressure determining means and the pressure is controlled by the flow rate controlling means so that the gas pressure always becomes the set gas pressure set by the heating power setting means. The driving means is stopped at the movable limit point.

[0020]

[0021]

(2) By changing the drive speed of the flow control means by the drive speed determination means, for example, when switching from high heat to low heat, the speed is increased up to just before low heat, and the speed is reduced when finely adjusting to the set gas pressure. .

(3) If the secondary gas pressure is equal to or lower than the predetermined gas pressure at the maximum heat power position of the heat power control device, the notification or the combustion of the equipment is stopped.

(4) When the maximum heating power is set, the pressure is adjusted to the maximum use gas pressure determined by the limit gas pressure determination means for determining the maximum use gas pressure.

Is installed.

The cam shapes for the switch A77 and the switch B78 of the relay joint 73 constituting the position judging means are configured to be able to identify five stroke states described later.

In the above configuration, a power supply is connected to the electronic circuit 25 of FIG. 2 and an ignition / extinguishing key 57 on the operation panel 7 is operated, so that electric power is transmitted from the main shutoff valve drive circuit 43 and the main shutoff valve 27 is operated. Will open.

FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view of the flow control means 28 in the combustion stopped state, showing the switch position 3 (switch A77on, switch B78on, stopped state), the shaft 76 having a gap t with the valve 81, The valve 81 is a spring A83, a spring B85
As a result, the gas is closed as a result of pressing the valve seat 87 with the combined spring force. In this state, the ignition / extinguishing key 57 is pressed to transmit power from the motor drive circuit 46 to rotate the geared motor 70 in the forward direction.

77off, switch Bon78, maximum heating power position). As a result, the shaft 76 pushes up the valve 81 and moves to the switch position 1 (the maximum heating power position) shown in FIG. (The switch will be described as a micro switch mechanical type for convenience, but a rotary encoder and an optical type are expensive as compared with the mechanical type as the second embodiment, but the operation is the same purpose. ).

In FIG. 5, the gas flows from the gas conduit 26 through the gap t1 between the needle receiver 84 and the needle 82, and the valve 81 and the valve seat 8
7, the gas pipe 29 reaches the pressure sensor 86 via the bypass nozzle 88, and at the same time, the gas pipe 29 receives the nozzle 30,
The flow reaches the main nozzle 31 and the burner 1. Simultaneously, the continuous discharge igniter 42 shown in FIG. 2 is operated to supply a high voltage to the ignition plug 33 via the high-voltage lead wire 33a for a limited time determined by the microcomputer 36, thereby causing a spark with the burner 1. Gas combustion is started and the thermocouple 3
2 is heated by the combustion flame of the burner 1 and continues burning.
The pressure sensor 86 is pressurized by gas pressure and transmits a pressure change to a pressure sensor conversion circuit 49 via a sensor lead wire 86a.
Since the switch position 1 (maximum thermal power state) where 1 and 2 are sufficiently ensured, the gas pressure is set to the condition showing the maximum value.

FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the flow control means 28 in a state where the gas pressure is set to the minimum set gas pressure by the DWN key 59. The clearance t1 between the needle receiver 84 and the needle 82 is reduced to increase the flow resistance, and the gas flow is reduced. The squeezed state is shown. This state indicates the switch position 0 (switch A77off, switch B78off, thermal power adjustment state), and the gas pressure sensor 86 is pressurized and changes are detected on the sensor lead wire 8.

FIG. 10 shows the contents of the gas type setting means 90. Gas type switching means 107 capable of discriminating a plurality of settings (for example, eight modes can be discriminated by a triple switch of ON and OFF). The gas type is selected, and the selected content is determined by the gas type determining means 108. The discrimination is performed by a predetermined work table in the storage unit (for convenience, the gas type /
According to the switch set value 110 of the gas pressure work table 109), the maximum use gas pressure 113 and the minimum set gas pressure are obtained from the gas type / gas pressure work table 109 by the limit gas pressure determining means 112 of the gas type according to the set gas type 111 according to the set gas value 111. 114, the abnormal supply gas pressure 115 is determined. For example, when the switch set value 110 is switch A = off, switch B = off, and switch C = off, the gas type 11
1 is LPG, maximum use gas pressure 113 is 300 mmH ₂ O, minimum set gas pressure 114 is ammH ₂ O, abnormal supply gas pressure 115
Is 200 mmH ₂ O.

The maximum usable gas pressure 113 is set to the standard gas pressure of each gas group defined by law and the gas pressure sensor 86
The purpose of use will be described later. The minimum set gas pressure 114 is proportional to the minimum combustion amount of the burner 1. Q = Ж × D ＾ 2 × H / d Q = gas flow rate Ж = coefficient determined for each type of gas D ＾ 2 = gas passage area H = gas pressure d = specific gravity determined for each type of gas Further, the minimum combustion capacity of the burner 1 varies depending on the unique characteristics of the burner and each gas group, and if the combustion amount is made too small, the combustion load becomes too small to extinguish the fire. In this case, the minimum set gas pressure is set to 1 for each gas group based on the experimental values to prevent the occurrence of problems such as backfires.
14 is set. The abnormal supply gas pressure 115 is a value obtained by subtracting an error of the pressure sensor 86 and the like from the minimum gas pressure of each gas group defined by law. The purpose of its use will be described later. In addition, since the minimum calorie of each burner is determined by the weak calorie correcting means 117, the maximum burner of each burner set by the burner calorie switching means 117 (in the present invention, it is assumed that two modes are set, large and small). It is determined whether the calorie at the time of combustion is large or small 118. If the determination is large, the minimum combustion amount is set higher on the combustion characteristics of the burner as compared with the minimum combustion amount of the small burner to prevent fire extinguishing. Therefore, the minimum set gas pressure 114 is multiplied by the gas pressure correction coefficient α, and the minimum set gas pressure is set high 12.
0. Although the burner calorie switching means 117 is not shown in FIG. 10, it is necessary for the number of burners.

The heating power setting condition judging means 121 includes various keys (for example, an ignition / extinguishing key 57, an UP key 58, and a DWN key 59) on the operation panel 7. The input of the condition of the thermal power to be used is set to 122 for ignition / extinguishing, and 1 to increase the thermal power.
23, whether or not to perform DWN 124, comparing and judging with the current use state, determining 125 a new use heat power, and lighting control 126 the number of heat power display lamps 56 according to the set heat power. In the case of the step display, the lighting state is set to the (Table 1) state>,

Based on the new use heat power determination 125, the heat power-set gas pressure determination means 127 determines the set gas pressure according to the set heat power (an example is shown in (Table 2)).

[0046]

[Table 2]

The set gas pressure for each thermal power is calculated, and ignition is performed.
Information on the fire extinguishing, the set thermal power, and the set gas pressure 128 is sent to the next stage. In the above description, the calculation of the set gas pressure is based on the minimum set gas pressure 114 because the weaker the calorie, the more accurate the same calorie is required each time during cooking, and is determined by the above coefficient. It has a configuration.

FIG. 12 shows the contents of the gas pressure judging means 93. The gas pressure sensor 86 generates a pressure distortion when the pressure receiving surface is pressurized by the gas pressure. The pressure distortion is converted into an electric signal. . The secondary gas pressure is calculated by the pressure conversion means 130 based on the constant stored in the initial constant storage unit 129 to obtain the pressure from the converted electric signal.

Addition of a 0-hour gas pressure correction value (a 0-hour gas pressure correction value is assumed to be 0 in an initial stage of use) stored in a later-described 0th-order gas pressure correction value storage unit 131 to the calculated gas pressure. This is performed by the secondary gas pressure calculation processing means 132 and determined as the secondary gas pressure. The absolute value of the gas pressure difference between the determined secondary gas pressure and the set gas pressure 128 determined by the heating power setting means 91 and the sign of plus or minus are determined by the heating power setting-secondary gas pressure comparing means 133, It is determined 134 whether the absolute value of the pressure difference is larger or smaller than a value obtained by multiplying the set gas pressure 128 by a coefficient γ (for example, 10%).
A signal 135 for stopping 0 is sent to the next stage. In the case of a large value, the absolute value of the gas pressure difference is calculated by adding the coefficient δ to the set pressure 128.
(E.g., 150%) to determine whether the value is larger or smaller 13

By the judgment 139 of the sign of + or-of the difference between the next gas pressure and the set pressure of the target thermal power (in the case of +, the normal rotation 14
In the case of 0 and-, it is assumed that the rotation is the reverse rotation 141).

The heating power setting means other than the above, for example, in the stew mode 64 in which automatic cooking is performed while detecting the temperature of the bottom of the pot containing the food using the temperature sensor 2, the amount and contents of the stew cooking are determined. Automatically estimates and automatically sets the heating power to match the cooking content after boiling, automatically extinguishes the fire when the preset cooking time has elapsed, and automatically extinguishes the fire prior to the timer if it is likely to burn within the time. In the case of automatically setting the heating power according to the post-cooking content, it is regarded as the heating power setting means.

FIG. 17 shows the contents of the gas pressure high cut means 103. In the maximum heating state (switch position 1), when the gas pressure is higher than the maximum use gas pressure 184, the switch position is set to 0 by the gas pressure high cut means 103. 185, the heating power of the heating power-setting gas pressure determining means, the setting gas pressure 128 is changed to the heating power of 4, and the setting gas pressure is changed 186 to the maximum use gas pressure 113, and the gas pressure determining means 93 is passed without passing through the heating power setting means. It is configured to shift to. Therefore, the switch position is 0, and the heating power indicator lamp 56 is in the state of the heating power 5. The operation of the set thermal power is also the thermal power 4 (switch position 0), but if the thermal power DWN key 59 is input from the operation panel 7 here, the thermal power setting means 91 passes through the thermal power setting means 91. The set gas pressure is set to the minimum gas pressure x4).

Which of the stoves among the individual drive judging means 97 is in low speed drive at the switch position 0 (thermal power adjustment state). At step 187, when the condition is satisfied, it is determined at step 188 whether the other stoves are also driven at low speed at the switch position 0.

FIG. 20 shows the contents of the power failure judging means 89. The power failure judging circuit 201 in the power supply circuit 35 shown in FIG.
202, the backup power supply 35b is driven in the case of a power failure, power is supplied to the electronic circuit 25, and the display of the display means 99 is stopped.
04, the thermal power setting means 91 is set to two types of thermal power, strong and weak 205 (detailed description is omitted, but the number of additions of the thermal power setting means 91 shown in FIG. 11 when the thermal power is UP is increased from 1 to 5, the thermal power DWN
Change the number of production cuts from 1 to 5) Go to the next stage. At the time of recovery from power failure, the backup power supply 202 is stopped 206, and the display means / heat power setting means is restored 207.

FIG. 21 shows the contents of the equilibrium temperature determining means 95. It is determined whether or not the current thermal power is at the thermal power 5 (maximum) 208 (or whether the current thermal power is equal to or higher than the set gas pressure of the thermal power 4). 208) Temperature detection means 102 for determining whether or not X1 minutes have passed since the time when the thermal power reached 5 when the condition was satisfied, and detecting the temperature of the temperature sensor 2 when the 209 condition was satisfied.
It is configured to determine 210 whether or not the temperature is not more than K1 ° C. If it is not more than K1 ° C., the extinguishing instruction 212 is performed if the difference between the temperature two seconds before and the current temperature is within T1 ° C. 211.

FIG. 22 shows the contents of the abnormal temperature judging means 96, in which it is judged 213 whether the temperature of the temperature detecting means 102 has become equal to or higher than a predetermined danger prediction temperature. 214, the storage of the set heating power storage means is erased 215, and the process proceeds to the next step. When the condition is satisfied, the heating power is instructed to the minimum calorie 216, the original heating power is stored in the set heating power storage means 217, and the temperature detection means 102 is stored. It is configured to determine 218 whether or not the temperature has become equal to or higher than the dangerous temperature, to instruct fire extinguishing when the condition is satisfied 219, to instruct an alarm 220, and to proceed to the next stage.

The following effects are obtained by the above configuration. That is, as shown in FIG. 2, since the original shut-off valve system is used, the power consumption is reduced and the cost can be reduced as compared with the case where the shut-off valve is provided in each flow control means.
The main shut-off valve can be freely selected from the suction / hold type and the hold type (suction can be performed by mechanical operation and can only be held), and the main shut-off valve shuts off gas even in the event of a power failure. There is.

As shown in FIG. 4, since the gas control is performed by a gad motor, when the electric power is used, the setting of the heating power is changed, and when the setting is not changed, the gas is not consumed. The power supply circuit in the control circuit can be made inexpensive, and at the same time, the voltage fluctuation can be reduced because the fluctuation of power consumption can be reduced by controlling the number of stoves one by one, etc. A very small circuit configuration is possible, which is effective in improving the overall reliability.

As shown in FIG. 4, the flow rate control means of the flow rate control means includes a geared motor, a relay joint which also serves as a switch cam for converting rotary motion into reciprocating linear motion via a serrated shaft of the geared motor, and a spiral slit. And a switch A and a switch B with a pin at the tip inserted into the bearing, and switches A and B. Special attention must be paid to parts accuracy and assembly accuracy through the relay joint. Therefore, there is an effect that a malfunction does not easily occur. In addition, the valve is pushed up by the shaft performing the reciprocating linear motion to form a gas flow path. At the time of the stop state in FIG. 4, the switches A and A are configured to stop the gad motor with a gap between the shaft and the valve. Since it is constituted by B, there is an effect that it is not necessary to have high precision in parts accuracy at the same time as closing securely. Also, a switch cam is provided on the relay joint, and in combination with switches A and B,
Stop, move, maximum thermal power, thermal power adjustable position, maximum operating point position can be determined, so even in the power failure recovery state, it can be immediately restored to the stop position, at the maximum thermal power set to the minimum flow loss position, It informs the drive determination means that the heating power is within the adjustable range, and at the maximum operating point, even if the stop position shifts due to the shock absorber and the needle is pressed against the needle receiver,
Since the gad motor can be stopped without overloading, it has an effect of preventing a failure of the device.

In the state shown in FIG. 5, the closing portion has a gap of t1 and the space between the needle and the needle receiver is wide. Even if a failure of the gas pressure sensor occurs in this state, the maximum flow rate is regulated by the main nozzle, so that the maximum flow rate does not change and the abnormal combustion does not occur.

Although the gas flows in the state shown in FIG. 5 and the gas pressure sensor causes a pressure distortion due to the gas pressure, there is a bypass nozzle which regulates the flow rate in front of the gas pressure sensor. In the event of a gas pressure sensor being damaged and even a slight gas leak, the sensor pressure drops extremely due to the flow rate regulated by the bypass nozzle, making it easier to detect a gas pressure abnormality. In addition, even if the gas pressure sensor is damaged and a large amount of gas flows out, there is an effect that there is no danger because only a very small amount of gas leakage regulated by the bypass nozzle is generated.

As shown in FIG. 8, the shape of the needle portion is not formed into a single taper but is formed into a plurality of cylindrical or conical steps, and flow rate control is adjusted by a combination of an area change and a flow velocity resistance change. In other words, it is configured to be divided into a low wobbe gas adjustment band and a high wobbe gas band adjustment, but this means that when the minimum thermal power is assumed to be 400 Kcal / h, for example, the gas flow rate at the minimum thermal power corresponding to the domestic gas type Depends on the calorific value of each gas type, and the setting of the supply gas pressure also differs depending on the gas type.If a single tapered needle shape is used, the trajectory of the stroke and gas pressure state of the needle will not be adjusted in the case of propane gas, etc. The minimum usable gas pressure and the maximum used gas pressure are mixed in the extremely small movable range of the pressure stroke range, and the result that the pressure adjustment value is not determined by the correlation between the mechanical accuracy of the drive device and the processing speed of the gas pressure detecting means Occurs. In order to solve these problems, a constant pressure adjustment stroke range is secured for any gas type, and the minimum calorie regulation of LPG, which generates the largest amount of heat per unit volume, is a minimum flow restriction hole in the needle holder. By providing, the accuracy of the needle part can be produced with a rough finish, the pressure can be easily adjusted, and the effect of mass production can be expected.

FIG. 10 shows the gas type setting means. Conventionally, when changing the gas type, the gas pressure of the needle, bypass key and governor for regulating the minimum flow rate is changed.
There are factors such as erroneous insertion of parts, defective gas seal, and the like, and at the same time, many parts need to be replaced, so replacement costs are high. In addition, since the value of the minimum heating power also changes according to the value of the maximum heating power, a flow control means corresponding to the value is required. For example, in the case of a two-port cooker, 16 kinds of flow control means are required in combination with a gas type. In the present invention, the gas type and the calorie setting are switched, so that one flow control means can be used in common, and it is not necessary to touch the flow control means, so that the conventional problems can be solved.

FIG. 11 shows that the ignition / extinguishing and the heating power can be adjusted by operating the keys, and the heating power is set based on the minimum calorie value. Microcomputer (central control means) because each firepower can be set only by calling calories
ROM capacity is small, and the daily use of thermal power can be selected most effectively with a small set number of thermal power.

FIG. 12 shows the gas pressure judging means.
Since the gas pressure that correlates with the flow rate of the main nozzle is measured, it is possible to control the thermal power. Therefore, in order to secure the thermoelectromotive force of the thermocouple for sustaining combustion even at the lowest supply gas pressure, it is necessary to set the calorie setting at 40 A at the standard supply gas pressure as much as 40%. Was. In the present invention, the gas pressure near the main nozzle (secondary pressure)
Is controlled, for example, conventionally the minimum calorie is 4
Even at a pressure of up to 00 Kcal / h, the minimum set gas pressure can be controlled to be constant according to the present invention.
It was theoretically possible to narrow down to 240 Kcal / h. Also,
Since the calorie in the middle is set based on the gas pressure of the minimum calorie, even if the supply gas pressure fluctuates slightly, the thermal power close to the set thermal power is always obtained, so the reproducibility of cooking time can be secured. In addition, the reliability of the cooking timer can be improved, and the usability of eggs can be greatly improved for cooking dishes that require minute calorie control. Since the thermal power adjustment is a method of adjusting the secondary pressure to the gas pressure of the set thermal power, the pressure adjustment is completed within a certain width depending on the difference between the target pressure adjustment value and the secondary pressure, and the pressure adjustment is performed. Prevents being determined indefinitely, when the width is more than a certain width, changes the drive speed of the flow rate control means 100 depending on the difference, and when the difference is small, the drive speed is accurately adjusted to the target thermal power at a low speed,
When there is a large difference, the driving speed is increased so that the target thermal power can be quickly approached. Therefore, it is possible to quickly cope with a case in which it is necessary to reduce the heating power urgently, such as when spilling over, etc. In addition, when the pressure is finely adjusted, the speed can be reduced and the target calorie can be accurately adjusted.

FIGS. 13 and 14 show the position judging means and the flow rate controlling means 100. The control state is judged by two switch positions, and the transition to each state is changed by one step as the change of the bit state of the switch. By setting the state and confirming the shift of each step, the failure of the switch is confirmed and the safety is ensured. At the same time, the speed of the flow control means 100 is changed by the difference between the transition target position and the current position, the purpose is to quickly and accurately reach the position, and the role of determining the traveling direction of the drive device is determined by the sign of the difference. ing. Further, even when the secondary gas pressure does not reach the target pressure adjustment at the time of the minimum throttle, it is forcibly stopped to prevent the mechanism from being destroyed. When the switch position is in the stop state, the gas pressure sensor is checked, and when the switch position is at the maximum heating power, the supply gas pressure is checked for abnormalities, and the position is clarified.

FIG. 15 shows a case where the supply gas pressure supplied to the appliance is checked by the abnormal supply gas pressure determination means, and a notification is made when the supply gas pressure becomes lower than the legal gas pressure. In general, it is difficult to imagine that the supply gas pressure will be lower than the legal gas pressure, and if it is used in such a state in most cases due to the half-open state of the appliance main stopper in the room or the twisting or breaking of the rubber pipe piping, Depending on the burning equipment, it may be burned due to incomplete combustion, causing gas poisoning, or used in a state where the performance of the equipment cannot be sufficiently exhibited. The present invention has an effect of issuing an alarm when these events occur and notifying them, and having them cancelled.

FIG. 16 shows a secondary gas pressure measurement correcting means including a gas pressure sensor. Since the gas pressure sensor section is in the open state to the atmosphere via the main nozzle when the apparatus is stopped, the gas pressure sensor section is in the stopped state. Measure the secondary gas pressure, determine the error when the gas pressure is 0, correct the difference within a certain range depending on the difference from the reference value, absorb the manufacturing error of the gas pressure sensor, and incorporate it at low cost. In addition, it minimizes errors due to aging, keeps accuracy, and when there is a large difference from the reference value, issues an alarm to prompt the need for inspection. It has a self-check function that stops the equipment in order to ensure safety in the event of an extreme occurrence, and has the effect of being able to use it with high precision, security and safety.

FIG. 17 shows a means for cutting high gas pressure. However, conventionally, a governor is used. At the time of changing the gas type, the governor set value needs to be changed. There is a difficulty in setting the combustion conditions due to the difference in temperature, and particularly in a state where it is difficult to use such as a stove burner and the like, when the gas pressure is abnormal, etc., the temperature of the apparatus may rise excessively. In the present invention, since the secondary gas pressure near the nozzle is controlled to be constant without using a governor, the burner combustion characteristics are the same as before, and no special consideration is required. It has the effect of obtaining the thermal power of

FIG. 18 shows the overall drive judging means. In the case of thermal power adjustment, the control is divided into a coarse adjustment pressure and a fine adjustment pressure.
The other stoves are temporarily stopped and the pressure is adjusted one by one. At the time of coarse pressure adjustment, there is an effect that the thermal power can be quickly reduced by coping with the spill-over, etc. At the time of fine pressure adjustment, the processing capacity of the microcomputer (central control means) is improved. It has the advantage of improving cost accuracy and improving accuracy, such as compounding and successive conversion of a plurality of pressure sensors.

FIG. 19 shows a means for displaying the secondary gas pressure of each burner on a display tube. The display tube is configured to display the remaining cooking time and the temperature of the bottom of the pot containing oil used for tempura, etc. The secondary gas pressure of each burner is operated by performing a specific key operation. Can be displayed. By displaying the secondary gas pressure, performance check during manufacturing does not require a special instrument, measurement preparation can be easily performed only by key operation, and the same convenience can be obtained during service. The time can also be reduced.

FIG. 20 shows a method of supplying power from a backup power supply so that cooking utensils can be used even during a power failure. The backup power supply does not require a large capacity and can be used for a long time. Therefore, there is an effect of realizing the use of a small capacity for a long time as a configuration for saving power for display and thermal power adjustment for the purpose of limiting power consumption to the minimum necessary limit.

FIG. 21 shows how the temperature of the temperature sensor is detected.
In the invention relating to the temperature detection of a temperature sensor used for the purpose of preventing a tempura fire in which the oil temperature becomes abnormally high and the oil ignites, as shown in an example shown in FIG. 23, the control circuit detects a short circuit or an open state of the temperature sensor. Therefore, the input end of the temperature sensor is input to the microcomputer (central control means) by two systems of A and B so that even if one end breaks down, the other end detects it and the safety is considered. Is performed V1
Utilizing that the voltage at the point becomes 0 V or Vcc (power supply voltage) when the point is short-circuited or open, safety is ensured in the event of sensor failure. However, this method cannot detect an intermediate potential failure of the temperature sensor (for example, if the simulated resistor R1 is added to the temperature sensor, the change in resistance becomes very small, and the temperature of the pan bottom temperature is not accurately detected). It will work. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to detect the state of 4 (temperature sensor temperature at the time of failure on the unsafe side) as shown in FIG. The curve of 4 has a very small temperature rise regardless of oil or water. However, if only the temperature rise is compared, for example, in the case of high-load cooking when the thermal power is at a minimum, the curves are the same and similar, and a good product is determined to be a faulty product. In the present invention, in order to solve this problem, as a method for confirming that the heating power has reached a predetermined time at the maximum, a method of checking the maximum heating power setting position by the current position determining means, and a method of confirming the maximum heating power by the gas pressure determining means. And a method to judge the quality of the temperature sensor based on the temperature and the temperature gradient, and a safe and highly reliable method of determining the failure of the temperature sensor. It is intended to be incorporated into.

Although the gas cooker has been described as an example of the use of the pressure sensor, the effect of the present invention can be applied not only to the gas cooker but also to gas burning appliances in general. It can be an effective combustion device for vessels, etc.

[0081]

As described above, according to the gas combustion apparatus of the present invention, the following effects can be obtained.

(1) By detecting the pressure by the gas pressure judging means and adjusting the pressure by the flow rate control means so that the set gas pressure always becomes the set gas pressure set by the heating power setting means, particularly at a low set heating power, the set heating power is reduced. Always constant, for example 10 after boiling
Cook over low heat. Etc. can be performed without variation. Also, since it is not necessary to set the minimum heating power in consideration of the lower limit of the supply gas pressure, using a conventional burner, 400 Kcal / h
Can be reduced to 300 Kal / h, which makes it possible to keep warm, which was not possible in the past. In addition, since the throttle mechanism can be constituted by a needle mechanism, a proportional valve, or the like, the throttle mechanism becomes an electromagnetic valve, so that there is little sudden change in the flame and there is no anxiety.

(2) By adding a flow rate regulating device to the gas inflow section of the pressure detecting section, the amount of gas leakage when the pressure detecting section is broken can be regulated. Also, if there is a minute gas leak, the measured value is indicated as a low gas pressure abnormality, and if the pressure detector is damaged, there is a danger of gas leaking and a fire inside the instrument, By installing the device, the leak amount is very small, danger can be prevented, and even if there is a minute gas leak due to minute destruction of the pressure sensing unit, the gas pressure drops at the pressure sensing unit due to the regulated gas amount of the flow rate regulating device. Since the low gas pressure abnormality is determined by the gas pressure determination means, the abnormality can be detected early.

(3) Even if the gas pressure does not reach the set value, by stopping the driving means at the movable limit point of the position determining means, dust or the like cannot be caught in the gas flow rate adjusting section of the flow rate controlling means. In this case, the restricting mechanism does not stop the restricting movement until a predetermined pressure is reached, so that it is finally determined that the restricting operation is defective and the apparatus is not stopped, and that an excessive load is prevented from being applied to the restricting mechanism.

(4) By changing the drive speed of the flow control means by the drive speed determination means, for example, when switching from high heat to low heat, the speed is increased up to just before low heat, and the speed is reduced when finely adjusting to the set gas pressure. As a result, it is possible to quickly reach the predetermined position without causing the convergence operation.

(5) When the secondary gas pressure is lower than a predetermined gas pressure at the maximum heating power position of the thermal power control device, the notification or the combustion of the equipment is stopped to indicate that the supplied gas pressure is low.
Notify and do not continue combustion in an unsafe combustion state. The notification also gives the user an opportunity to investigate the cause of the low supply gas pressure. For example, a gas rubber tube is broken, a gas valve is half-opened, etc.

(6) When the maximum heating power is set, the maximum operating gas pressure is determined by the maximum operating gas pressure determined by the limit gas pressure determining means. By adjusting to the maximum heating power at the time of gas pressure, the temperature rise of the body overheating is low, and the electronic circuit inside the body is not exposed to abnormally high temperature atmosphere, the risk of burns is reduced, and the cause of equipment failure is also reduced. .
