Description: BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a display device for a rice-washing rice cooker. 2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional rice-washing operation with a rice-washing rice cooker, a measuring device is started, a set measuring process is performed in which set white rice is measured, and thereafter, rice is washed and supplied to the rice cooker. Then, an ignition process in which the ignition device is started and ignited is performed. Subsequently, the rice cooker is started to perform a rice cooking process in which rice is cooked, and white rice is cooked. [0003] When the start time is set by operating the timer setting means for setting the start time for starting the rice cooking operation, the measurement process is switched from the weighing process to the rice cooking process after the set time has elapsed. And then cooked. [0004] The present invention seeks to make it easy to confirm the contents of the items set for reservation when the start of rice cooking work is reserved. [0005] For this purpose, the present invention provides an ignition device 6 'for igniting a rice cooker 4 for cooking white rice weighed by a weighing device 15.
And a timer setting means 76 for reserving a start time for starting the rice cooking operation. When the timer setting means 76 is operated to set a start time, a display is provided.
This is configured to display the set time reserved in the section 49,
Push the clock means 50 or set the number of pots during the reservation setting
By pressing the shuttle setting means 74,
During the operation of, the current time or
The display device of the rice-washing rice cooker is configured to display the number of fixed pots on the display unit 49 . With the above configuration, while the set time reserved by the reservation setting is being displayed on the display unit 49, these operations are performed by operating the clock means 50 and the shuttle setting means 74.
During this time, the display unit 49 displays the current time and the scheduled number of pots . While the set time reserved by the reservation setting is being displayed on the display unit 49, the clock means 50 and the shuttle setting means 74 are displayed.
During these operations, the display unit 49 displays the current time and the estimated number of pots during the operation, so that the contents of the reserved items can be easily checked, thereby preventing the setting errors. .

Dropping means for driving the discharge motor 29 and resetting means for canceling an error display flag on the display unit 49 are operated mainly when performing an inspection before starting work. As another setting means, a water adjusting means 6
In addition to 4, the rice cooking amount means 68 for setting the rice cooking amount, the washing method means 69 for setting the washing method, the soaking means 70 for setting the immersion time, the unevenness means 71 for setting the washing time, and the rice cooking mode are set. Mode means 72, and ignition switching means 73 for setting manual ignition or automatic ignition, can mainly set various modes appropriately before cooking rice. 7
3 'and 73' are ignition means. Reference numeral 74 denotes a pot setting means for setting the number of pots; 75, a starting means for starting the weighing operation of the weighing device 15; 76, a timer setting means for presetting the start time of the rice cooking operation;
7 is a day setting means for setting the day of the week and clearing the number of displayed pots, and 78 is a help means used when the fault location warned by the abnormal lamp 79 is unknown. Power supply means 19 ',
Operation of the time means 50, the ignition means 73 ', the hook setting means 74, the starting means 75, the timer setting means 76 and other means;
The lighting of the immersion LED 74 ', the detection of the flame sensor 10', and other sensors are input to the CPU 21 of the control device 20, and the CPU 21 receives these inputs, and the CPU 21 causes the ozonizer 2 ', the ignition device 6', The motor and each solenoid valve are operated. The timer setting means 76, the starting means 75,
When the ignition means 73 'is sequentially operated, the ignition device 6' of the rice-washing rice cooker 1 is operated to ignite the rice cookers 4a and 4b. When the flame by the ignition is detected by the flame sensor 10 ', the ignition is OK. Is detected and digested. When the start time is set by the operation of the timer setting means 76, an ignition step for igniting the rice cookers 4a and 4b is performed first to confirm whether ignition is possible.
At this time, the various modes set by the operation of each means are not canceled, and after the ignition is confirmed, the timer setting means 7 is set.
When the start time set in the reservation in step 6 elapses, operations are sequentially performed from the weighing process in which the set rice rice weighing operation to be started in the rice washing rice cooker 1 is started, and the last rice cooking process and rice drying process Is performed and cooking is completed. When the fire is extinguished by visually observing the flame, the ignition means 7
3 'may be operated again to extinguish the fire. In the rice-washing rice cooker 1, a timer setting means 76
When the operation is started and the start time for starting the rice-washing rice cooker 1 is set and reserved, the control of whether or not ignition is OK is started (step 101), and the process proceeds to step 102, where (step 102) to (step 105). Is controlled as shown, and the ignition device 6 'operates to perform ignition (step 1).
06), it is detected whether ignition has occurred (step 107), and NO
Is detected, the process returns to step 102, and if YES is detected, the fire is extinguished (step 108), the process proceeds to step 109, and (steps 109 to 110) are controlled as shown. FIG. 8 relates to display control of items displayed on the display unit.
The time for starting the rice-washing rice cooker 1 is set by reservation, and even when the reserved time is being displayed on the display unit 49, when the clock unit 50 and the setting unit 74 are pushed, During the operation of, the display unit 49 is configured to display the current time, the planned number of pots, and the like. The operation is started (step 201), and the start time is set by the operation of the timer setting means 76 (step 202). It is detected whether the time means 50 is ON or not (step 203). Is displayed (step 204), and if NO is detected, it is detected whether the hook setting means 74 is ON (step 205), and YES
Is detected, the set planned number of pots is displayed (step 206), and if NO is detected, the process proceeds to step 207.
Steps 204 and 206 are the same as step 2
07, (Steps 207 to 209) are controlled as shown in the figure. According to the above, the contents of the reservation-set items can be easily and easily confirmed.
Setting errors can also be prevented. FIG. 9 relates to the operation control of the ozonizer 2 ′ that does not allow the user to feel uncomfortable, and the operation of the ozonizer 2 ′ is controlled by the ON-OFF operation of the power supply 19 ′ and the operation of the timer setting unit 76. I have. The operation is started (step 301), and it is detected whether the power supply 19 'is ON (step 302), and YES
Is detected, it is detected whether the timer setting means 76 is ON (step 303), and if YES is detected, the ozonizer 2 'is turned on and operated (step 304), and the process proceeds to step 305, where control is performed as shown in the figure (step 304). Step 30
5) If ON is detected, the process returns to step 305. If NO is detected in step 302, the ozonizer 2 '
N (step 306), it is detected whether the power supply means 19 'is ON (step 307), and if NO, the process returns to step 307, YES is detected, and step 30
If YES is detected in step 5, the ozonizer 2 'is turned off.
(Step 308), the process proceeds to Step 309, and control is performed as shown (Step 309). If NO is detected in Step 303, the process proceeds to Step 309. As described above, while the rice-washing rice cooker 1 is in operation, the robbery does not enter the inside of the machine, but may enter the machine during stoppage. However, the ozonizer 2 'during stoppage.
By operating the, the invasion of the noise into the airframe could be reliably prevented in an economical manner.
