JP 2004-294864 A

As the above-described published recipes, there are, for example, a cooking equipment maker and the like that have published recipes using their own cooking equipment as examples, and those that have been published by famous cooks. Some have released their own recipes on an individual level.
When creating such a recipe, for example, a cooking equipment manufacturer spends expenses and manpower to create the recipe, and in an environment where equipment and ingredients are sufficiently prepared, while sharing work (for example, The recipe can be created while sharing the task of proceeding with cooking and the task of recording cooking contents and timing thereof. Therefore, it is possible to relatively easily create a recipe that details cooking contents and timing.

On the other hand, in the case of creating a recipe at the individual level, for example, while cooking is in progress, the cooking procedure is written down to the extent of memo writing, and cooking is performed while reviewing the memo writing after cooking or during cooking. Creating recipes while remembering the procedure.
However, it is difficult to record the cooking procedure in detail with the method of writing down the cooking procedure while cooking is in progress, and it may not be possible to remember how it was cooked. In many cases, it was not possible to create detailed recipes. Further, when the created recipe is disclosed on the Internet, for example, it is time consuming because a number of cooking procedures must be input to the PC terminal to convert the recipe into data.

  On the other hand, particularly recently, anyone can easily upload and publish recipes using a recipe publishing site on the Internet. Many of these sites are able to publish recipes, and users who actually use the published recipes have “successfully” and “arranged” the recipe. It is also possible to upload comments and opinions such as In other words, when a recipe is published on the site, feedback for the recipe can be obtained, so that there is an increasing need to disclose its own recipe despite the above-described problems.

The present invention has been made in view of these circumstances, and its object is able to record the cooking procedure without troublesome operation, a recipe creation kitchen system that the recipe data can be easily generated It is to provide.

In the recipe creation kitchen system according to claim 1, when cooking control information corresponding to an operation is given, at least one cooking appliance provided to perform a cooking operation according to the cooking control information is connected to the cooking appliance. A controller provided to receive the cooking control information; and at least one detecting means provided to detect a cooking state of the object to be cooked; and the cooking appliance is provided with the cooking control information. And transmission means for transmitting the cooking control information to the control device, the control device requires time measuring means for measuring the elapsed time from the start of cooking , and detection data of the detection means is required in each procedure of the recipe. It means for setting a required degree indicating whether the degree, upon receiving the cooking control information from the transmitting unit, the elapsed time and before said timing means the cooking control information Characterized in that a recipe creation means for creating a recipe data both required degree of detection data of the detection data and set the detection means detecting means in association with the instructions in the recipe.

  According to such a configuration, when the cooking operator operates the cooking appliance, the cooking control information given to the cooking appliance by the operation is transmitted to the control device. When the cooking control information is received by the control device, the recipe data creating means creates recipe data by associating the cooking control information with the elapsed time of the time measuring means and the recipe procedure. That is, for each procedure of the recipe, recipe data to which the operation content performed on the cooking appliance during the procedure and the timing at which the operation is performed is automatically created.

According to the recipe creation kitchen system according to claim 1, when the cooking operator operates the cooking appliance, the operation contents , timing , cooking state of the cooking object, and data indicating the cooking state of the cooking object are each procedure of the recipe. Since the recipe data in which the degree of whether or not it is necessary is associated with the recipe procedure is automatically created, the cooking procedure can be recorded without annoying work, and the recipe data Can be easily created. In addition, since the recipe is created as data, the created recipe data can be distributed as it is via the Internet or the like, and it is possible to meet the need to make the recipe public using the recipe publication site.

(1) Schematic Overall Flow of Recipe Data Creation First, the overall schematic flow will be described with reference to FIG. A main control program is stored in the home terminal 1, and a recipe procedure input routine S1 for displaying a recipe procedure input by a cooking worker on the display unit 3, an operation content of a cooking appliance, etc. in the input recipe procedure. A recipe data creation routine S2 for creating recipe data in association with each other, a recipe data correction routine S3 for modifying the created recipe data, and an upload routine S4 for uploading completed recipe data to a server such as the recipe publishing site 9 are sequentially executed. . Each of these routines S1 to S4 will be described in detail below.

(2) Processing of Recipe Procedure Input Routine S1 In the recipe procedure input routine S1, the control circuit 2 first displays an input screen (not shown) provided with a plurality of character keys and the like on the display unit 3. Then, when the cooking operator operates the character keys to input the recipe procedure on the input screen, the control circuit 2 displays the entire inputted recipe procedure on the display unit 3 as shown in FIG. 6 ( (Part indicated by a in FIG. 6). In the part shown on the right side in FIG. 6, the elapsed time from the start of cooking (the part indicated by symbol b in FIG. 6) and the “Next” button (part indicated by symbol c in FIG. 6) displayed by the timer 6 are displayed. The In addition, among the parts shown on the right side in FIG. 6, the other parts display cooking operations (records of operations of the respective cooking appliances 10 to 13) actually performed by the cooking worker when creating recipe data. The details will be described in the processing of the recipe data creation routine S2.

(3) Processing of Recipe Data Creation Routine S2 Next, recipe data creation for creating the recipe data when the cooking worker performs the cooking work while using each cooking appliance 10-13 according to the recipe procedure described above. The routine S2 will be described. Here, taking the case where the procedure 4 of the recipe shown in FIG. 6 is performed as an example, the specific contents when the IH cooking heater 12 is used will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In step 4, a cooking operation of “heating butter, adding vegetables and bacon and frying, adding rice and frying until the rice is clear” is performed.

  When the content of the procedure 4 currently being performed is displayed on the display unit 3 as indicated by the symbol d in FIG. 6 (step S11), the control circuit 2 monitors whether or not the “next” button c has been pressed. (Step S12). Then, the control circuit 2 monitors whether or not the cooking control information transmitted from the cooking appliances 10 to 13 has been received until the “next” button c is pressed (“NO” in step S12). (Step S13).

  For example, when the cooking operator operates the operation unit 12d of the IH cooking heater 12 to set the heating power 17 after 30 minutes from the start of cooking, the control circuit 12a of the IH cooking heater 12 is connected to the home terminal 1 via the communication circuit 12b. Cooking control information (cooking equipment = “IH cooking heater”, operation content = “thermal power 17”). The control circuit 2 receives the cooking control information transmitted from the IH cooking heater 12 (“YES” in step S13), and the cooking control information read from the timer 6 has elapsed time of 30 minutes (0:30). The operation record recorded together with this is displayed on the display unit 3 (step S14, a part indicated by symbol e in FIG. 6). Thereafter, the control circuit 2 again monitors whether or not the cooking control information transmitted from each cooking device 10 to 13 has been received (step S13). For example, the cooking operator is 35 minutes after the start of cooking. When the operation unit 12d of the IH cooking heater 12 is further operated to set the heating power 14 (in other words, when the heating power is changed from 17 to 14), the cooking control information (cooking equipment = “IH cooking heater”, operation content = “ Is transmitted to the home terminal 1, and the control circuit 2 having received the operation record on the display unit 3 records the cooking control information together with the elapsed time 35 minutes (0:35) read from the timer 6. It is displayed (step S14, the part indicated by the symbol f in FIG. 6). On the other hand, if the cooking control information is not received in step S13 (“NO” in step S13), the control circuit 2 again monitors whether or not the “next” button c has been pressed (step S12).

  When the cooking operator finishes the procedure 4 and presses the “Next” button c (“YES” in Step S12), the control circuit 2 records the elapsed time read from the start of cooking read from the timer 6 (Step S12). S15). Then, it is determined whether or not the next procedure exists (step S16). If it exists (“YES” in step S16), the procedure (in this case, procedure 5) is displayed on the display unit 3 ( Step S11), it is monitored again whether or not the “next” button c has been pressed (step S12). In this way, each time the “next” button c is pressed, the respective steps are sequentially performed. Finally, when the next step does not exist (when the flow proceeds to step 7), the “next” button c is When pressed ("NO" in step S16), the recipe data creation routine S2 is terminated.

  Next, the operation recording format for recording the cooking control information received by the control circuit 2 together with the elapsed time in the above-described recipe data creation routine S2 will be specifically described with reference to FIGS.

  As shown in FIG. 10, each time the control circuit 2 receives cooking control information (in this case, cooking appliance = “IH cooking heater”, operation content = “thermal power 17”), which cooking appliance (to the IH cooking heater) The operation content (with thermal power 17) and the time (00:30) at which the operation was performed are collectively recorded as one operation record with the <operation> </ operation> tag. Further, as shown in FIG. 11, the control circuit 2 performs the contents of the procedure (“heat the butter and fry until clear”, for each recipe procedure currently being performed, as shown in FIG. 11. a part indicated by a), a time when the procedure was started (00:30, a part indicated by symbol b in FIG. 11) and an operation record created by the procedure (parts indicated by symbols c and d in FIG. 11) < Routine> </ routine> tags are recorded together as one procedure record. The control circuit 2 creates a procedure record in a format as shown in FIG. 11 for each procedure as the recipe procedure progresses sequentially. When cooking is completed, the control circuit 2, as shown in FIG. 12, displays the cooking name (“risotto”, the part indicated by the symbol “a” in FIG. 12) described in the recipe procedure and from the start to the end of cooking. Information on the total elapsed time (00:61, a portion indicated by symbol b in FIG. 12) is added to create recipe data for the entire recipe procedure as shown in FIG.

(4) Processing of Recipe Data Correction Routine S3 When the control circuit 2 creates recipe data by the recipe data creation routine S2, the recipe data correction routine S3 is subsequently executed. Hereinafter, the recipe data correction routine S3 will be described with reference to FIG. 5 and FIG.

  First, the control circuit 2 displays a recipe data confirmation screen shown in FIG. 7 on the display unit 3 based on the created recipe data (step S21). At this time, the display unit 3 also includes a “confirm” button (a part indicated by symbol “a” in FIG. 7) for confirming that there is no part that the cooking operator wants to correct in the recipe data and ending the recipe data correction routine S3. Is displayed. Each procedure is displayed so as to be selectable as a procedure block. When this procedure block is pressed, a correction screen (not shown) for correcting the recorded contents of the procedure corresponding to the block is displayed. It is like that. On the correction screen, the recorded contents of the procedure are displayed in a text format, and a plurality of character keys are displayed. Then, the cooking worker can use a plurality of character keys to make corrections such as deletion / change / addition of recorded contents. In addition, a “correction complete” button or the like for completing the correction and returning to the screen shown in FIG. 7 is displayed.

  When the recipe data is displayed, the control circuit 2 monitors whether or not the “confirm” button “a” has been pressed (step S22). Until the “confirm” button a is pressed (“NO” in step S22), it is monitored whether or not the procedure block is pressed (step S23). If it is determined that the procedure block has been pressed (“YES” in step S23), a correction screen is displayed on the display unit 3 (step S24). When the correction screen is displayed, the control circuit 2 monitors whether or not the “correction complete” button has been pressed (step S25). Until the “correction complete” button is pressed (“NO” in step S25), the correction screen is continuously displayed and the correction is accepted. When the “correction complete” button is pressed (“YES” in step S25), the recorded content of the recipe data is updated to the corrected recorded content (step S26), and the screen returns to the screen shown in FIG. Thereafter, the control circuit 2 again monitors whether or not the “confirm” button a has been pressed (step S22). When the “confirm” button a is pressed (“YES” in step S22), the control circuit 2 Then, the recipe data correction routine S3 is terminated.

(5) Processing of Upload Routine S4 When the above-described recipe data correction routine S3 is completed, the control circuit 2 executes the upload routine S4. In the upload routine S4, the control circuit 2 displays an upload screen as shown in FIG. This upload screen includes an “upload” button a, a “cancel” button b, a “return” button c, and the like. When the “upload” button a is pressed, the control circuit 2 uploads the created recipe data to the server of the recipe publishing site 9 connected to the Internet 8 via the communication terminal 7. On the other hand, when the “cancel” button b is pressed, the control circuit 2 stores the created recipe data in a storage device (not shown) such as a hard disk provided in the home terminal 1 without uploading the created recipe data. To do. When the “return” button c is pressed, the control circuit 2 executes the recipe data correction routine S3 again.

(6) Description of use mode of the created recipe data If the recipe data created in the above upload routine S4 is published on the recipe publication site 9, the recipe data can be downloaded and used by other users. . Here, a case where a user who has a recipe creation kitchen system similar to the one in which a cooking worker creates a recipe downloads and uses the recipe data will be specifically described with reference to FIG.

  When the user downloads recipe data from the recipe publishing site 9 to the home terminal 1, the control circuit 2 displays the entire recipe procedure on the display unit 3 based on the recipe data (part indicated by reference symbol a in FIG. 9). . In addition, in the part shown on the right side in FIG. 9, information on each procedure is displayed, and in this part, the cooking content (part indicated by symbol b in FIG. 9) to be performed in the procedure, the procedure An operation record (portions indicated by reference numerals c and d in FIG. 9) is displayed in which the operation content performed on each cooking appliance 10 to 13 is recorded together with the elapsed time for performing the operation (that is, the timing for performing the operation). The Further, the elapsed time from the start of cooking timed by the timer 6 (the part indicated by symbol e in FIG. 9) is displayed, and the time recorded in the recipe data as the timing for performing the procedure (reference symbol in FIG. 11). The time recorded in the part indicated by b) is displayed (the part indicated by reference sign f in FIG. 9). Further, the display unit 3 includes a “next” button (portion indicated by a symbol g in FIG. 9) used for proceeding to the next procedure, and a mode switching button for switching between an auto mode and a manual mode described later.

When the cooking operator operates the character keys to input the recipe procedure on the input screen, the control circuit 2 displays the entire recipe procedure input on the left side of the display unit 3 (reference symbol a in FIG. 16). Part shown by). Each procedure is displayed in an underlined state for each cooking operation in the procedure. For example, the cooking operations of Step 6 “low heat when boiling and cook until the core remains slightly in the center of the rice” and “add water when water is low” are set as one cooking operation block b and c, respectively. It is displayed as selectable. The display unit 3 displays a check point button P, a cooking start button e, a cooking end button f, a cooking information display unit g, and a cooking record display unit h.

  The check point button P is used when the cooking operator performs a cooking operation without using the cooking devices 10 to 13 and records a cooking record at that time. The cooking start button e and the cooking end button f are for causing the control circuit 2 to recognize that the cooking operator starts and ends cooking.

  The cooking information display part g is the elapsed time from the start of cooking timed by the timer 6 (the part indicated by the symbol i in FIG. 16), the detection data detected by the sensors 10e to 13e and the camera 14 (indicated by the symbol j in FIG. 16). Part) is a part for displaying. In the cooking information display part g, together with the elapsed time and detection data, a necessity level mark indicating the degree of whether or not the information is necessary in each cooking operation (in order from the higher necessity level, “◎” ○ "*" Can be set in three stages) and the attributes of the detected data ("Time" Temperature "Mixing condition ..." Photo ") are displayed. Each of these necessary levels functions as a necessary level setting button. Each time the cooking operator presses the necessary level button, the necessary levels are sequentially switched. At the start of cooking, the symbol “x” is displayed as a default when necessary.

  When the cooking record display unit h creates recipe data, the cooking operation actually performed by the cooking operator (the cooking operation recorded using the operation of each cooking device 10-13 or the checkpoint button P, hereinafter, These are collectively referred to as actions), and the details will be described in the processing of the recipe data creation routine S2.

(3) Processing of Recipe Data Creation Routine S2 Next, when the cooking worker performs the cooking operation using the cooking appliances 10 to 13 and the checkpoint button P according to the recipe procedure described above, the recipe data is stored. The recipe data creation routine S2 to be created will be described.

When the cooking operator presses the cooking start button e, the control circuit 2 executes a recipe data creation routine S2. Also in this embodiment, the processing performed in the recipe data creation routine S2 is common in each cooking operation, and here, the case where the procedure 6 of the recipe procedure shown in FIG. 16 is performed is taken as an example, and the IH cooking heater is used. 12 and the checkpoint button P will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. In step 6, a cooking operation is performed such as “low heat when boiling and cook until the core remains slightly in the center of the rice. Add water when water is low”.

  When the control circuit 2 starts the recipe data creation routine S2, whether the necessity button has been pressed (step S31), whether cooking control information has been received from each cooking device 10-13 (step S32), the checkpoint button P is It is monitored whether it has been pressed (step S33), an action block and a cooking operation block described later have been pressed (step S34), or a cooking end button f has been pressed (step S35).

  For example, when the cooking operator presses the necessity button (“YES” in step S31), the control circuit 2 sequentially sets and displays the level of necessity according to the number of times the necessity button is pressed. (Step S36). In FIG. 16, for example, for “temperature”, “mixing condition” “photo”, the necessity button is pressed once and a “○” mark is displayed, and for “water level”, the necessity button is pressed twice. The mark “◎” is displayed.

  Next, when the cooking operator operates as an action, for example, the heating power setting of the IH cooking heater 12 to the heating power 5 after 42 minutes from the start of cooking, the control circuit 2 reads the cooking control information (cooking equipment) transmitted from the IH cooking heater 12. = "IH cooking heater", operation content = "thermal power 5") is received ("YES" in step S32), and the operation record in which the cooking control information is recorded together with the elapsed time from the start of cooking (0:42) is the cooking record. It displays on the display part h (step S37, the part shown with the code | symbol k in FIG. 16). And the detection data obtained from each sensor 10e-13e and the camera 14 at that time, and the necessity set at that time are recorded (step S38).

  On the other hand, when the cooking operator performs a cooking operation of “add water when water is exhausted” 49 minutes after the start of cooking as an action and presses the check point button P (“YES” in step S33), control is performed. The circuit 2 records the elapsed time (0:49) from the start of cooking and displays it on the cooking record display unit h (step S39, a portion indicated by reference numeral 1 in FIG. 16). And the detection data obtained from each sensor 10e-13e and the camera 14 at that time, and the necessity set at that time are recorded (step S40).

  In step S37 and step S39 described above, the control circuit 2 displays the operation record and the elapsed time as selectable action blocks k and l, respectively. In addition, in the cooking record display unit h, two to three action blocks corresponding to the most recently performed action are sequentially displayed.

  Here, in the above-described step S37, the action block k includes cooking control information (cooking equipment = “IH cooking heater”, operation content = “thermal power 5”, a portion indicated by a symbol m in FIG. 16) and progress from the start of cooking. Only the time (0:42, the portion indicated by the symbol n in FIG. 16) is displayed. In step S39 described above, only the elapsed time from the start of cooking (0: 49, the portion indicated by symbol o in FIG. 16) is displayed in the action block l. That is, since it is displayed in an unknown state in which cooking operation the content of these actions is performed, it is necessary to associate the content of each action with the cooking operation.

  Therefore, for example, when the cooking operator presses the action block k and then presses the cooking operation block b (“YES” in step S34), the control circuit 2 adds the cooking operation (“ When it boils, it is set to low heat .... cooking ”) and recorded, and the contents of the cooking operation are displayed (step S41, the portion indicated by symbol p in FIG. 16). When the cooking worker presses the action block l and subsequently presses the cooking operation block c (“YES” in step S34), the control circuit 2 adds the cooking operation (“moisture is absorbed”) to the contents of the action block l. "Add water when it decreases") and record the contents of the cooking operation (step S41, the portion indicated by q in FIG. 16).

  Then, until the cooking end button f is pressed (“NO” in step S35), the control circuit 2 sequentially creates recipe data while monitoring the above-described steps S31, S32, S33, and S34. When the cooking operator presses the cooking end button f (“YES” in step S35), the recipe data creation routine S2 is terminated.

Next, the recording format of the action performed by the control circuit 2 in the above-described recipe data creation routine S2 will be specifically described with reference to FIGS.
As for the action by operation of each cooking appliance 10-13, as shown in FIG. 19, the control circuit 2 is cooking operation (part shown with the code | symbol a in FIG. 19), elapsed time (part shown with the code | symbol b in FIG. 19). , Operation records (portion indicated by reference symbol c in FIG. 19), detection data and necessity (portion indicated by reference symbol d in FIG. 19) are collectively recorded as one action record by <action></action> tags. As for the action by the checkpoint button P, as shown in FIG. 20, the cooking operation (the part indicated by symbol a in FIG. 20), the elapsed time (the part indicated by symbol b in FIG. 20), and the checkpoint button P are pressed. Information indicating that it has been performed (part indicated by reference character c in FIG. 20), detection data, and necessity level (part indicated by reference character d in FIG. 20) are collectively recorded as one action record by the <action></action> tag. . At this time, the control circuit 2 associates the mark “'” ○ ”×” with each numerical value (corresponding to “1”, “2” and “3” in descending order of necessity). Record). The control circuit 2 creates an action record in the format shown in FIGS. 19 and 20 for each action. Then, when cooking is completed, the control circuit 2 is configured in a manner as shown in FIG. 12 of the reference example for the name of the dish (“risotto”) described in the recipe procedure and the total elapsed time from the start to the end of cooking. Information (00:61) is added to create recipe data for the entire recipe procedure.

(4) Processing of Recipe Data Correction Routine S3 When the control circuit 2 creates recipe data by the recipe data creation routine S2, the recipe data correction routine S3 is subsequently executed. Hereinafter, the recipe data correction routine S3 will be described with reference to FIG. Since the processing flow performed in the recipe data creation routine S2 is the same as that shown in FIG. 5 of the reference example , the description will be made with reference to FIG.

First, the control circuit 2 displays a recipe data confirmation screen shown in FIG. 17 on the display unit 3 based on the created recipe data (step S21). At this time, the display unit 3 also includes a “confirm” button (a part indicated by symbol “a” in FIG. 17) for confirming that there is no part that the cooking operator wants to correct in the recipe data and finishing the recipe data correction routine S3. Is displayed. Each cooking operation is displayed so as to be selectable as a cooking operation block, and when this cooking operation block is pressed, a correction screen (not shown) for correcting the recording content of the cooking operation corresponding to that block. Is displayed. In this correction screen, in the same way as shown in the reference example , the cooking operator can make corrections such as deletion / change / addition of recorded contents and automatic correction described later. ing.

  When the recipe data is displayed, the control circuit 2 performs monitoring according to the flowchart shown in FIG. 5, and when the cooking operation block is pressed (“YES” in step S23), a correction screen (not shown) is displayed on the display unit 3. Is displayed (step S24). Until the “correction complete” button is pressed (“NO” in step S25), the correction screen is continuously displayed and the correction is accepted. For example, “Add water when water is low” in step 9 in FIG. 17 is a cooking operation that is supplementary to “Add water when water is low” in step 8 in FIG. It is determined that it is not necessary to record as data and is deleted. When the correction completion button is pressed, the recorded content of the recipe data is updated to the corrected recorded content (steps S25 and S26), and the screen returns to the screen shown in FIG.

Here, automatic correction of recorded contents that can be executed on the above-described correction screen will be described. Here, for example, a case where the portion of “Step 7 is set to low heat when cooked .... cook” is automatically corrected will be described in detail. In the present embodiment, an automatic correction button is displayed on the correction screen, and when the cooking operator presses the automatic correction button, the control circuit 2 uses, for example, the data server based on the keyword “when boiling”. 15, necessary degree information as shown in FIG. 21 is downloaded. Then, the recorded contents are corrected based on the necessity information and displayed as indicated by a symbol b in FIG.

  When the recipe data is corrected in this way and the “confirm” button a is finally pressed (“YES” in step S22), the control circuit 2 ends the recipe data correction routine S3.

(5) Processing of Upload Routine S4 When the above-described recipe data correction routine S3 ends, the control circuit 2 executes the upload routine S4 in the same manner as shown in the reference example . In the upload routine S4, the control circuit 2 displays an upload screen (see FIG. 8) on the display unit 3. When the “upload” button “a” is pressed, the control circuit 2 uploads the created recipe data to the recipe publishing site 9. On the other hand, when the “cancel” button b is pressed, the control circuit 2 stores the created recipe data in a storage device (not shown) such as a hard disk provided in the home terminal 1. When the “return” button c is pressed, the control circuit 2 executes the recipe data correction routine S3 again.

(6) Description of Use Mode of Created Recipe Data Next, a case where the uploaded recipe data is downloaded and used will be specifically described with reference to FIG. In this embodiment, the user also has a recipe creation kitchen system similar to the one created by the cooking worker.

  When the user downloads recipe data from the recipe publishing site 9 to the home terminal 1, the control circuit 2 displays the recipe procedure on the display unit 3 based on the recipe data (the portion indicated by symbol a in FIG. 18). Each procedure is displayed as a cooking operation block for each cooking operation. Further, in the portion shown on the right side in FIG. 18, information related to the cooking operation of the cooking operation block pressed by the user is displayed, and in this portion, the cooking content to be performed by the cooking operation (in FIG. 18). A portion indicated by reference sign b), an elapsed time from the start of cooking timed by the timer 6 (part indicated by reference sign c in FIG. 18), and a time recorded in the recipe data as a timing for performing the cooking operation (in FIG. 18) (Part indicated by reference sign d), the operation content (part indicated by reference sign e in FIG. 18) performed on each cooking appliance 10-13 during the cooking operation, and a mode switching button for switching between auto mode and manual mode (FIG. 18), the detection data recorded in the recipe data (the part indicated by symbol g in FIG. 18) are displayed. At this time, along with the detection data, the necessity (the part indicated by symbol h in FIG. 18), the attribute of the detection data (the part indicated by reference symbol i in FIG. 18), and the sensors 10e to 13e and the camera 14 detect during the cooking operation. The detected data (the part indicated by the symbol j in FIG. 18) is displayed.

  In this way, in the portion on the right side in FIG. 18, each time the cooking operation block is pressed, information about the cooking operation block is sequentially displayed. Therefore, the user proceeds with cooking by sequentially pressing the cooking operation block. can do.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
First, for each procedure of the recipe, in addition to the operation content performed on each cooking appliance 10-13 during the procedure and the timing at which the operation was performed, each sensor 10e-13e and camera at that time Since the recipe data to which the 14 detection data (that is, the cooking state of the cooking object at that time) is added is automatically created, more detailed recipe data can be created automatically.

Second, since the action can be recorded not for each recipe procedure but for each cooking operation in the procedure, finer recipe data can be automatically created.
Third, since the necessity is set for each of the sensors 10e to 13e and the camera 14, it is possible to record which detection data is necessary in the procedure. The meaning of each sensor depends on the cooking content and the cooking worker's sense, so in this way, by having the cooking worker give the meaning of the sensor and recording that information, Detection data can be used effectively.

  Fourthly, since the recipe data created based on the keyword can be automatically corrected, for example, for the keyword “After boiling”, the degree of necessity of each sensor is detected based on the boiling state of the food to be cooked. It can be automatically corrected to a suitable one. In addition, for example, by creating a different keyword such as “when the water temperature does not rise” as well as “when it boils” as a keyword for the state in which the food is boiled, it is expressed by the user. Even if the method or sense of cooking is different, it is possible to set the necessary degree of each sensor suitable for the cooking state (in this case, the boiling state), and to use the detection data more effectively it can.

Fifth, since the action record is created even when the cooking worker presses the checkpoint button P, cooking operations that do not use the cooking devices 10 to 13 (for example, “add water”, “ Salt and pepper "etc.) can also be recorded.
Sixth, in FIG. 18, since the detection data recorded in the recipe data and the detection data actually detected by each sensor 10e to 13e are displayed, the user must compare these detection data. Thus, cooking can be performed faithfully with respect to the recipe data.

(Second Embodiment)
Will now be described with reference to FIGS. 22 through 27 for the second embodiment of the present invention. In addition, description is abbreviate | omitted about the part same as what was described in the above-mentioned reference example and 1st Embodiment, and only a different part is demonstrated hereafter.

First, the configuration of the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. The recipe creation kitchen system shown in the present embodiment is further provided with a cooker microphone 16 for inputting the voice of the cooking worker in addition to the recipe creation kitchen system shown in the first embodiment. This cooker microphone 16 functions as a voice input means. The cooker microphone 16 includes a communication circuit (not shown), and is configured to be able to transmit the voice as voice data to the home terminal 1 when a voice is input. Further, the control circuit 2 includes a voice recognition circuit (not shown) for converting voice data to be described later into text.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS. In the description, it will be divided into the following items in order.
(1) Overall flow of this embodiment will be described first overall flow of the present embodiment with reference to FIG. 23. In this embodiment, unlike the reference example and the first embodiment described above, the home terminal 1 does not execute the recipe procedure input routine S1 alone, but also serves as a recipe procedure input routine S1. The data creation routine S5 is executed, and subsequently, the recipe data correction routine S3 and the upload routine S4 are sequentially executed. Each of these routines S5, S3, and S4 will be described in detail below.

(2) Processing of Recipe Data Creation Routine S5 Next, recipe data creation for creating the recipe data when the cooking worker performs cooking work while using each cooking appliance 10-13 and the cooker microphone 16 is performed. The routine S5 will be described with reference to FIGS. The recipe data creation routine S5 performs processing corresponding to the recipe procedure input routine S1 and the recipe data creation routine S2 among the routines S1 to S4 described in the reference example and the first embodiment. .

  When starting the recipe data creation routine S5, the control circuit 2 displays a recipe data creation screen shown in FIG. 25 on the display unit 3 (step S51). On the recipe data creation screen, a cooking information display part a, a cooking record display part b, a cooking start button c, and a cooking end button d are displayed.

As with the cooking information display part g (see FIG. 16) shown in the first embodiment, the cooking information display part a is the elapsed time from the start of cooking timed by the timer 6 (the part indicated by symbol e in FIG. 25). The detection data detected by the sensors 10e to 13e and the camera 14 (the part indicated by the symbol f in FIG. 25) are displayed. Each time the necessity button is pressed, the degree of necessity can be sequentially switched. The cooking record display unit b, when creating the recipe data, performs the cooking operation actually performed by the cooking worker (the operation of each cooking device 10 to 13 or the input by the cooking microphone 16; This will be described later in detail. The cooking start button c and the cooking end button d are for making the control circuit 2 recognize that the cooking operator starts and ends cooking.

  When the recipe data creation screen is displayed, the control circuit 2 displays the recipe data creation screen and waits until the cooking start button c is pressed (“NO” in step S52). When the cooking start button c is pressed (“YES” in step S52), whether the necessity button is pressed (step S53), whether audio data is received from the cooker microphone 16 (step S54), each cooking It is monitored whether cooking control information has been received from the devices 10 to 13 (step S55) or whether the cooking end button d has been pressed (step S56).

  For example, when the cooking operator presses the necessity button (“YES” in step S53), the control circuit 2 sequentially sets and displays the level of necessity according to the number of times the necessity button is pressed. (Step S57).

  Next, the process performed when the control circuit 2 records and displays an action will be specifically described. When the cooking operator inputs a voice as an action, for example, through the cooker microphone 16 32 minutes after cooking is started, the control circuit 2 causes the cooker microphone 16 to input the voice. The voice data transmitted from (data file recording “carefully fry so as not to be damaged”) is received (“YES” in step S54), and the voice data is recorded (step S58). Subsequently, the elapsed time (0:32) from the start of cooking is recorded (step S59), and the detection data obtained from the sensors 10e to 13e and the camera 14 at that time and the necessity set at that time are recorded. (Step S60). And the record of this action is displayed on the cooking record display part b (step S61, the part shown with the code | symbol g in FIG. 25).

  On the other hand, for example, when the cooking operator operates the thermal power setting of the IH cooking heater 12 to the thermal power 4 after 49 minutes from the start of cooking as an action, the control circuit 2 causes the cooking control information (cooking appliance = “IH cooking heater”, operation content = “thermal power 4”) is received (“YES” in step S55), and the cooking control information is recorded (step S62). Subsequently, the elapsed time from the start of cooking (0:49) is recorded (step S59), and the detection data and necessity level at that time are recorded (step S60). And the record of this action is displayed on the cooking record display part b (step S61, the part shown with the code | symbol m in FIG. 25).

  In step S61, the control circuit 2 displays the action records in which substantially the same elapsed time is recorded as one action block. For example, a cooking worker inputs a voice saying “If it boils, cook it to a low temperature when it boils and cook until the core remains slightly in the center of the rice”, and operate the thermal power setting of the IH cooking heater 12 to the thermal power 5 In this case, the voice recording (part shown by symbol n in FIG. 25) and the operation record of “IH cooking heater thermal power 5” (part indicated by symbol h in FIG. 25) Are displayed together (portion indicated by symbol i in FIG. 25). In addition, the part shown by the code | symbol j in FIG. 25 is also an audio | voice input ("A bouillon ..... It puts on a strong fire", the part shown by the code k in FIG. 25), and operation of the IH cooking heater 12 ("IH cooking heater thermal power 17", 25 shows a record of actions when the portion indicated by the symbol l) is performed at the same elapsed time (0:38).

  Then, the control circuit 2 sequentially creates recipe data while monitoring the above-described steps S53, S54, and S55 until the cooking end button d is pressed (“NO” in step S56). When the cooking operator presses the cooking end button d (“YES” in step S56), the recipe data creation routine S5 is terminated.

  Next, the action recording format performed by the control circuit 2 in the above-described recipe data creation routine S5 will be specifically described with reference to FIG. Here, an action record (portion indicated by i in FIG. 25) including both operations of the cooking appliances 10 to 13 (operation of the IH cooking heater 12) and voice input ("low heat when boiling") is taken as an example. This will be described in detail.

In the same manner as shown in the first embodiment, the control circuit 2 performs the cooking operation (the part indicated by the symbol a in FIG. 27), the elapsed time (the part indicated by the symbol b in FIG. 27), the voice data (FIG. 27). The portion indicated by the middle symbol c), the operation record (the portion indicated by the reference symbol d in FIG. 27), the detection data and the necessity level (the portion indicated by the reference symbol e in FIG. 27) are combined into one <action></action> tag. Record as action record. At this time, the control circuit 2 records the received voice data as text by the voice recognition circuit for the cooking operation and voice data. Then, the control circuit 2 creates an action record in the format shown in FIG. 27 for each action, and creates recipe data for the entire recipe procedure.

(3) Processing of Recipe Data Correction Routine S3 When recipe data is created by the recipe data creation routine S5, the control circuit 2 executes the recipe data correction routine S3 in the same manner as shown in the first embodiment. Hereinafter, the recipe data correction routine S3 will be described with reference to FIG.

First, the control circuit 2 displays a recipe data confirmation screen shown in FIG. 26 on the display unit 3 based on the created recipe data. At this time, a “confirmation” button (a part indicated by a in FIG. 26) is also displayed on the display unit 3. Each cooking operation is displayed so as to be selectable as a cooking operation block, and when this cooking operation block is pressed, a correction screen (not shown) for correcting the recording content of the cooking operation corresponding to that block. Is displayed. Then, the cooking operator can make corrections such as deletion / change / addition of recorded contents via the correction screen. In addition, automatic correction can be performed in the same manner as that shown in the first embodiment, and recorded contents can be added by voice input. Here, in Step 7 in FIG. 26, “carefully fry so as not to be damaged” is merely a precaution, and it is determined that it is not necessary to record it as recipe data, and is deleted. In addition, since only the operation record of the IH cooking heater 12 is recorded in the procedure 10 in FIG. 26, it is also possible to input the operation content.

When the recipe data is corrected in this way and the “confirm” button “a” is finally pressed, the control circuit 2 ends the recipe data correction routine S3.
(4) Processing of Upload Routine S4 When the above-described recipe data correction routine S3 ends, the control circuit 2 executes the upload routine S4 in the same manner as shown in the reference example and the first embodiment. In the upload routine S4, the control circuit 2 displays an upload screen (see FIG. 8) on the display unit 3. When the “upload” button “a” is pressed, the control circuit 2 uploads the created recipe data to the recipe publishing site 9. On the other hand, when the “cancel” button b is pressed, the control circuit 2 stores the created recipe data in a storage device (not shown) such as a hard disk provided in the home terminal 1. When the “return” button c is pressed, the control circuit 2 executes the recipe data correction routine S3 again.

(5) Description of Use Mode of Created Recipe Data Next, a case where the uploaded recipe data is downloaded and used will be described. In this embodiment, the user also has a recipe creation kitchen system similar to the one created by the cooking worker.
When the user downloads recipe data from the recipe publishing site 9 to the home terminal 1, the control circuit 2 performs the recipe operation block as shown in FIG. 18 in the same manner as shown in the first embodiment. Each is displayed on the left side of the display unit 3. Since information on the cooking operation of the cooking operation block is sequentially displayed on the right portion of the display unit 3, the user can proceed with cooking by sequentially pressing the cooking operation block.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
1stly, about each procedure of a recipe, the operation content performed with respect to each cooking appliance 10-13 during the procedure, the timing at which the operation was performed, and detection of each sensor 10e-13e and the camera 14 at that time In addition to data (that is, the cooking state of the object to be cooked at that time), recipe data to which the voice information of the cooking operator is added is automatically created, so more detailed recipe data is automatically created. be able to.
Secondly, recipe data can be created while inputting a cooking procedure via the cooker microphone 16, and there is no need to describe the cooking procedure in advance.
( Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In addition, description is abbreviate | omitted about the part same as what was described in the above-mentioned reference example, 1st Embodiment, and 2nd Embodiment, and only a different part is demonstrated hereafter.

Also in the present embodiment, the main control program is stored in the home terminal 1, and the recipe data creation routine S5, the recipe data correction routine S3, and the upload routine S4 are performed in the same manner as that shown in the second embodiment. Sequentially executed (see FIG. 23). Each of these routines S5, S3, and S4 will be described in detail below.

(2) Processing of Recipe Data Creation Routine S5 Next, when the cooking worker performs cooking work while using each cooking appliance 10-13, the cooker microphone 16, and various cooking utensils, the recipe data is created. The recipe data creation routine S5 to be performed will be described with reference to FIG. 30 and FIG.

When starting the recipe data creation routine S5, the control circuit 2 displays a recipe data creation screen shown in FIG. 31 on the display unit 3 (step S71). On the recipe data creation screen, a cooking information display part a, a cooking record display part b, a cooking start button c, and a cooking end button d are displayed in the same manner as shown in the second embodiment.

  When the recipe data creation screen is displayed, the control circuit 2 displays the recipe data creation screen and waits until the cooking start button c is pressed (“NO” in step S72), and the cooking start button c is pressed. (“YES” in step S72), whether the necessity button has been pressed (step S73), whether an operation signal has been received from the acceleration sensor 17 (step S74), or whether audio data has been received from the cooker microphone 16 ( It is monitored whether cooking control information has been received from each cooking appliance 10-13 (step S75), whether the cooking end button d was pressed (step S77).

For example, when the cooking worker presses the necessity button (“YES” in step S73), the level of necessity is sequentially switched (step S78).
Next, the process performed when the control circuit 2 records and displays an action will be specifically described. As an action, for example, after 38 minutes from the start of cooking, the cooking worker finishes frying using 'Fryer' and starts mixing with 'Otama', and then adds bouillon to add salt and pepper to high heat. Is input, and the thermal power setting of the IH cooking heater 12 is operated to the thermal power 17, the control circuit 2 causes the operation signal transmitted from the 'flyback' acceleration sensor 17 and the 'tama' acceleration sensor 17 to be transmitted. The operation pattern of the transmitted operation signal is recorded (“YES” in step S74, step S79). At this time, the control circuit 2 recognizes and records the operation pattern as, for example, “stir fry” for the operation signal received from “Fly-turn” and “mix” for the operation signal received from “Tama”. To do. Subsequently, the elapsed time (0:38) from the start of cooking is recorded (step S80), and the detection data and necessity level at that time are recorded (step S81). Then, a record of this action is displayed on the cooking record display part b (step S82, a part indicated by a symbol e in FIG. 31).

  In addition, voice data ("Buillon ...... fire", part indicated by symbol f in FIG. 31) and cooking control information of the IH cooking heater 12 (cooking equipment = “IH cooking heater”, operation content = “thermal power 17”) , The portion indicated by the symbol g in FIG. 31) is also recorded in the same manner (the flow of steps S75 → S83 → S80 → S81 and steps S76 → S84 → S80 → S81), and the action recorded at the same elapsed time in step S82. As a record, they are collectively displayed as one action block (portion indicated by symbol h in FIG. 31).

In addition, when a cooking worker inputs a sound as an action (part shown by the symbol i in FIG. 31), a cooking worker operates a cooking appliance (IH cooking heater 12) as an action (a symbol in FIG. 31). j) and when the cooking operator inputs a voice and operates the cooking appliance (the part indicated by k in FIG. 31), the same processing as that shown in the second embodiment is performed. The description is omitted.

  Then, until the cooking end button d is pressed (“NO” in step S77), the control circuit 2 sequentially creates recipe data while monitoring the above-described steps S73, S74, S75, and S76. When the cooking operator presses the cooking end button d (“YES” in step S77), the recipe data creation routine S5 is terminated.

  Next, an action recording format performed by the control circuit 2 in the above-described recipe data creation routine S5 will be specifically described with reference to FIG. Here, the operation of each cooking device 10-13 (operation of the IH cooking heater 12), voice input ("Buillon ... fire") and cooking utensil operation ("stir fry" to "mix") ) Will be described in detail by taking an example of action recording (the part indicated by symbol h in FIG. 31).
