Description

本発明は、誘導加熱調理器に関するものであり、特に誘導加熱調理器の温度制御に関するものである。   The present invention relates to an induction heating cooker, and more particularly to temperature control of an induction heating cooker.

従来、調理具を載置する天板の裏面に感度の異なる複数の温度検知素子を設け、制御回路はこれらの温度検知素子の内のいずれかからの信号に基づいて誘導加熱コイルから発生する高周波磁界を制御することで誘導加熱されている調理具の温度を調整する誘導加熱調理器が知られている(例えば特許文献1参照)。
また、誘導加熱調理器のトッププレート上に、加熱コイルと電磁気的に結合する結合コイル、結合コイルと接続されるヒータ、ヒータの輻射熱を透過させる輻射熱透過板及び被調理物を載せる網体を備えた焼き物調理器を載置し、加熱コイルからの高周波磁界により結合コイルに発生する誘導起電力をヒータに供給する。ヒータはニクロム線で構成されており、約800℃の温度に達して赤熱し、輻射熱となって上方に伝わる。輻射熱透過板はこの輻射熱を効率よく透過させ、網体上の被調理物を加熱する。これにより、あぶり焼きによる焼き物調理を行う技術が知られている(例えば特許文献2参照)。
Conventionally, a plurality of temperature detection elements having different sensitivities are provided on the back surface of the top plate on which the cooking utensils are placed, and the control circuit generates a high frequency generated from the induction heating coil based on a signal from any one of these temperature detection elements. An induction heating cooker is known that adjusts the temperature of a cooking utensil that is induction heated by controlling a magnetic field (see, for example, Patent Document 1).
Moreover, on the top plate of the induction heating cooker, a coupling coil that is electromagnetically coupled to the heating coil, a heater connected to the coupling coil, a radiant heat transmission plate that transmits the radiant heat of the heater, and a net body on which the food is placed are provided. A pottery cooker is placed, and an induced electromotive force generated in the coupling coil by the high frequency magnetic field from the heating coil is supplied to the heater. The heater is made of nichrome wire, reaches a temperature of about 800 ° C., becomes red hot, and is transmitted upward as radiant heat. The radiant heat transmission plate efficiently transmits the radiant heat and heats the food on the net. As a result, a technique for cooking pottery by grilling is known (see, for example, Patent Document 2).

特開昭63−152197号公報(第1頁、第1図)JP-A-63-152197 (first page, FIG. 1) 特開平11−204243号公報(第3頁、図1)JP-A-11-204243 (page 3, FIG. 1)

然しながら、上記特許文献1で示される従来の誘導加熱調理器では、様々な調理状態について被加熱物の温度を検知する必要があるため、温度検知素子の測定温度範囲は凡そ20〜300℃程度と広い。そのため、例えば、沸騰温度帯(85〜105℃)や天ぷら調理温度帯(160〜200℃)、などの特定の温度帯を狙った温度制御を行う場合、温度検知素子の分解能が不十分であるため、目標温度に対するオーバシュートやハンチング等が発生する問題があった。
また、上記特許文献2で示される従来の誘導加熱調理器では、抵抗加熱方式での伝熱加熱のため、あぶり調理等の高温調理には適しているものの、鍋を載置して行う調理に関しては、誘導加熱方式と比較して効率が低い、投入火力が小さい、という課題を有している。
However, in the conventional induction heating cooker shown in the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, it is necessary to detect the temperature of the object to be heated in various cooking states, so the measurement temperature range of the temperature detection element is about 20 to 300 ° C. wide. Therefore, for example, when performing temperature control targeting a specific temperature range such as a boiling temperature range (85 to 105 ° C.) or a tempura cooking temperature range (160 to 200 ° C.), the resolution of the temperature detection element is insufficient. Therefore, there is a problem that overshoot or hunting with respect to the target temperature occurs.
Moreover, in the conventional induction heating cooker shown by the said patent document 2, although it is suitable for high-temperature cookings, such as abalone cooking, for the heat transfer heating by a resistance heating system, it is related with the cooking performed by mounting a pan. Has a problem that the efficiency is low and the input heating power is small compared to the induction heating method.

本発明は上記の課題を解決するために為されたものであり、高精度な温度測定が可能な誘導加熱調理器を得ることを目的としている。   The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object thereof is to obtain an induction heating cooker capable of measuring temperature with high accuracy.

本発明に係る誘導加熱調理器は、被調理物を載置する天板と、この天板の下方に配置された加熱コイルと、前記被調理物の温度を測定する第1の温度検出素子と、前記第1の温度検出素子に対して、検出温度範囲のうちの所定の温度帯が狭く、より高い分解能であり、前記所定の温度帯で前記第1の温度検出素子より高い精度で前記被調理物の温度を測定する第2の温度検出素子と、制御部と、を備え、前記制御部は前記第1の温度検出素子の検出値に基づいて前記所定の温度帯にあると判断すると、測定手段を前記第1の温度検出素子から前記第2の温度検出素子に切り替えるものである。 An induction heating cooker according to the present invention includes a top plate on which an object to be cooked is placed, a heating coil disposed below the top plate, and a first temperature detection element that measures the temperature of the object to be cooked. The predetermined temperature range of the detection temperature range is narrower and higher resolution than the first temperature detection element, and the detected temperature range is higher in accuracy than the first temperature detection element in the predetermined temperature range. A second temperature detection element that measures the temperature of the food, and a control unit; and when the control unit determines that the predetermined temperature range is present based on a detection value of the first temperature detection element; The measuring means is switched from the first temperature detection element to the second temperature detection element.

本発明によれば、被調理物を載置する天板と、この天板の下方に配置された加熱コイルと、前記被調理物の温度を測定する第1の温度検出素子と、前記第1の温度検出素子に対して、検出温度範囲のうちの所定の温度帯が狭く、より高い分解能であり、前記所定の温度帯で前記第1の温度検出素子より高い精度で前記被調理物の温度を測定する第2の温度検出素子と、制御部と、を備え、前記制御部は前記第1の温度検出素子の検出値に基づいて前記所定の温度帯にあると判断すると、測定手段を前記第1の温度検出素子から前記第2の温度検出素子に切り替えるので、目標温度近傍での温度検知精度が向上するため高精度な温度制御が可能となる。 According to the present invention, the top plate on which the object to be cooked is placed, the heating coil disposed below the top plate, the first temperature detecting element for measuring the temperature of the object to be cooked, and the first The predetermined temperature zone in the detection temperature range is narrower and has higher resolution than the first temperature detection element, and the temperature of the object to be cooked is higher than that of the first temperature detection element. A second temperature detection element that measures the temperature, and a control unit. When the control unit determines that the temperature is within the predetermined temperature range based on a detection value of the first temperature detection element, Since the first temperature detection element is switched to the second temperature detection element, the temperature detection accuracy near the target temperature is improved, so that highly accurate temperature control is possible.

Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a diagram showing a configuration of an induction heating cooker according to the present invention.
As shown in FIG. 1, the induction heating cooker has a main body 1 of the heating cooker and a heat resistance on which an upper surface of the main body 1 and an object to be heated (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a pan) 2 such as a pan are placed. It consists of a glass top plate 3. Further, the top plate 3 is provided with a thermal power setting unit 4 for setting the strength of the thermal power in the heating unit, a thermal power display unit, and the like. The main body 1 also has a grill 5 suitable for grilling fish and meat, and a plurality of rotary buttons and display units so that conditions such as heating power, cooking time, temperature, etc. can be set and displayed for the heating unit and the grill 5 etc. A front operation unit 6 provided, a heating coil (not shown) that is provided below the top plate 3 and constitutes the substance of the heating unit, and a temperature sensor (not shown) that measures the temperature of the object 2 to be heated. I have.

また、図2は本発明に係る誘導加熱調理器の実施の形態1を示す温度特性の異なる複数種類のサーミスタの温度と抵抗値との関係を示す温度特性図である。また、図3は図2で示した複数種類のサーミスタの配置位置を示す要部拡大図であり、加熱コイルの中央にサーミスタを配置した例を示している。また、図4は、図3に示す3種類のサーミスタと周辺回路を示す図である。また、図5は本発明の実施の形態1における誘導加熱調理器の構成を示すブロック図である。図5に示すようにサーミスタ11、沸騰調理用サーミスタ12、天ぷら調理用サーミスタ13、制御部21、メモリ22および表示部25はIOバス31に接続されている。また、加熱コイル24は加熱コイル24を駆動するインバータ23を介して制御部21に接続されている。
次に、本実施の形態1について図1〜図5を用いて説明する。
図2に示すように通常調理用サーミスタ11は50℃〜300℃程度の広い温度範囲で比較的低い分解能を示すのに対して、沸騰調理用サーミスタ12は80℃〜120℃の範囲で顕著な温度特性を示し、湯沸かし調理用の90℃〜110℃の温度帯で通常調理用サーミスタ11よりも約10倍の高い感度(即ち高い分解能)を示す。また、天ぷら調理用サーミスタ13は120℃〜220℃の範囲で顕著な温度特性を示し、天ぷら調理用の160℃〜200℃の温度帯で通常調理用サーミスタ11よりもかなり高い分解能を示す。
図3に示すように、従来の通常調理において鍋温度を検知する通常調理用サーミスタ(広温度範囲・低分解能)11に加え、特定の温度領域に対して検出感度が高いサーミスタ12、13が加熱コイル24の中央にそれぞれ配置されている。
また、図4に示すように従来のサーミスタ11、沸騰調理用サーミスタ12および天ぷら調理用サーミスタ13のそれぞれを対応する抵抗111、121、131を介して基準電圧を加え、抵抗とサーミスタの抵抗により基準電圧を分圧した電圧値が各サーミスタからそれぞれ出力されアナログ電圧信号として制御部21へ送られる。サーミスタが検知する周囲温度に応じてサーミスタの抵抗値が変化するため、アナログ電圧信号が変化する。
また、調理モードに対応した目標加熱温度を予めメモリ22に格納しておく。そして、使用者の操作により、沸騰調理、もしくは天ぷら調理が選択されると、制御部21は選択された調理モードに対応した目標加熱温度をメモリ22から取得し、この目標加熱温度となるようにインバータ23を高周波で駆動させ、天板3上に載置された鍋2を加熱する。
これにより、インバータ23は上記目標加熱温度に追従するように加熱コイル24に電力(火力)を供給して加熱コイル24を誘導加熱駆動する。また、制御部21は必要に応じて加熱状況(火力、現在の温度、調理の種類等)を表示するように加熱状況の情報を表示部25に出力する。
加熱が開始されると、制御部21は、周期的に通常調理用サーミスタ11によって検出された電圧値を監視し、この電圧値から調理温度を換算して、鍋2の温度を検知する。そして、沸騰調理の温度帯に入った場合には、監視先を通常調理用サーミスタ11から沸騰調理用サーミスタ12に切り換え、サーミスタ12の検出感度に応じた高精度な温度制御を行う。
通常調理用サーミスタ11によって検出された電圧値から換算した調理温度が天ぷら調理の温度帯に入った場合も上記と同様に動作する。
なお、調理温度の換算方法としては、公知の数式を用いてもよいし、予めメモリ22にサーミスタの種類毎にアナログ電圧値と調理温度を対応させたテーブルを格納しておき、必要時にサーミスタの種類とアナログ電圧値を検索キーとしてこのテーブルを検索して調理温度を取得するようにしてもよい。
FIG. 2 is a temperature characteristic diagram showing the relationship between the temperature and resistance value of a plurality of types of thermistors having different temperature characteristics, showing the first embodiment of the induction heating cooker according to the present invention. FIG. 3 is an enlarged view of a main part showing the arrangement positions of the plural types of thermistors shown in FIG. 2, and shows an example in which the thermistors are arranged in the center of the heating coil. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the three types of thermistors and peripheral circuits shown in FIG. Moreover, FIG. 5 is a block diagram which shows the structure of the induction heating cooking appliance in Embodiment 1 of this invention. As shown in FIG. 5, the thermistor 11, the boiling cooking thermistor 12, the tempura cooking thermistor 13, the control unit 21, the memory 22, and the display unit 25 are connected to the IO bus 31. The heating coil 24 is connected to the control unit 21 via an inverter 23 that drives the heating coil 24.
Next, the first embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 2, the normal cooking thermistor 11 exhibits a relatively low resolution in a wide temperature range of about 50 ° C. to 300 ° C., whereas the boiling cooking thermistor 12 is remarkable in the range of 80 ° C. to 120 ° C. It shows temperature characteristics, and shows a sensitivity (that is, high resolution) about 10 times higher than that of the normal cooking thermistor 11 in a temperature range of 90 ° C. to 110 ° C. for boiling water cooking. Further, the tempura cooking thermistor 13 exhibits remarkable temperature characteristics in the range of 120 ° C. to 220 ° C., and exhibits a considerably higher resolution than the normal cooking thermistor 11 in the temperature range of 160 ° C. to 200 ° C. for tempura cooking.
As shown in FIG. 3, in addition to the normal cooking thermistor (wide temperature range / low resolution) 11 for detecting the pan temperature in conventional normal cooking, the thermistors 12 and 13 having high detection sensitivity in a specific temperature range are heated. Each of the coils 24 is disposed at the center.
Also, as shown in FIG. 4, a reference voltage is applied to the conventional thermistor 11, the boiling thermistor 12 and the tempura cooking thermistor 13 through the corresponding resistors 111, 121 and 131, respectively, and the reference is determined by the resistance and the resistance of the thermistor. A voltage value obtained by dividing the voltage is output from each thermistor and sent to the control unit 21 as an analog voltage signal. Since the resistance value of the thermistor changes according to the ambient temperature detected by the thermistor, the analog voltage signal changes.
Further, the target heating temperature corresponding to the cooking mode is stored in the memory 22 in advance. And when boiling cooking or tempura cooking is selected by a user's operation, the control part 21 will acquire the target heating temperature corresponding to the selected cooking mode from the memory 22, and it will become this target heating temperature. The inverter 23 is driven at high frequency, and the pan 2 placed on the top 3 is heated.
As a result, the inverter 23 supplies electric power (heating power) to the heating coil 24 so as to follow the target heating temperature to drive the heating coil 24 by induction heating. Moreover, the control part 21 outputs the information of a heating condition to the display part 25 so that a heating condition (thermal power, the present temperature, the kind of cooking etc.) may be displayed as needed.
When the heating is started, the control unit 21 periodically monitors the voltage value detected by the normal cooking thermistor 11, converts the cooking temperature from this voltage value, and detects the temperature of the pan 2. When the boiling cooking temperature zone is entered, the monitoring destination is switched from the normal cooking thermistor 11 to the boiling cooking thermistor 12, and high-precision temperature control according to the detection sensitivity of the thermistor 12 is performed.
Even when the cooking temperature converted from the voltage value detected by the normal cooking thermistor 11 enters the tempura cooking temperature range, the same operation as described above is performed.
In addition, as a conversion method of cooking temperature, you may use a well-known numerical formula, the table which matched the analog voltage value and cooking temperature for every kind of thermistor in advance in the memory 22 is stored, and the thermistor The table may be searched using the type and analog voltage value as a search key to obtain the cooking temperature.

なお、上記の例では、温度特性の異なる3種類のサーミスタを配置した場合について説明したが、これに限らず4種類でも5種類でも構わない。すなわち、利用する複数種類の調理の各々に適した温度特性を持つサーミスタを配置すればよい。
また、上記の例では、通常調理用サーミスタと異なる種類の高精度サーミスタを一緒に加熱コイルの中央に配置したが、調理モードが1種類のみであれば、当該調理の温度帯で分解能が高い高精度サーミスタのみを通常調理用サーミスタと一緒に加熱コイルの中心に配置してもよい。これにより、上記の調理において高精度な温度制御を損なうことなく部品点数を少なくできる。
また、制御部21は、サーミスタ11によって検出された温度と沸騰調理用サーミスタ12又は天ぷら調理用サーミスタ13のそれぞれによって同時に検出されたほぼ同じ位置の温度とを比較し、その差が所定値(この値は図2に示すグラフから得られる各サーミスタの温度に応じて変化する検出感度の誤差にマージンを加味した値とし、予め設定値としてメモリ22に格納しておく)以上の場合には、いずれか一方が故障したと判断し、警報出力を行う。これにより、使用者は故障修理などの迅速な対応を行うことができ、結果として故障による誤検出、ひいては誤制御を防止することが可能となる。この場合、3種類のサーミスタの内、1種類のみが大きく外れている場合には、このサーミスタが故障している可能性が高く、故障センサーの特定が容易である。
In the above example, the case where three types of thermistors having different temperature characteristics are arranged has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and four or five types may be used. That is, a thermistor having a temperature characteristic suitable for each of a plurality of types of cooking to be used may be disposed.
In the above example, a high-precision thermistor of a different type from the normal cooking thermistor is disposed in the center of the heating coil. However, if there is only one cooking mode, the resolution is high in the cooking temperature range. Only the precision thermistor may be placed in the center of the heating coil together with the normal cooking thermistor. Thereby, the number of parts can be reduced without impairing highly accurate temperature control in the above cooking.
Further, the control unit 21 compares the temperature detected by the thermistor 11 with the temperatures at substantially the same position simultaneously detected by the boiling cooking thermistor 12 or the tempura cooking thermistor 13, and the difference is a predetermined value (this The value is a value obtained by adding a margin to a detection sensitivity error that changes in accordance with the temperature of each thermistor obtained from the graph shown in FIG. 2, and is stored in advance in the memory 22 as a set value.) It is judged that one of them has failed, and an alarm is output. As a result, the user can take quick measures such as repairing a failure, and as a result, it is possible to prevent erroneous detection due to failure, and hence erroneous control. In this case, when only one of the three types of thermistors is largely off, there is a high possibility that the thermistor has failed, and the failure sensor can be easily identified.

以上のように、本実施の形態によれば、上記構成により、各調理モード(天ぷら180℃、湯沸し100℃)で、目標温度近傍での温度検知分解能が向上するため、高精度な温度制御が可能となる。さらに温度センサーの故障検知も行うので、長期間継続的に高精度な温度検知および高精度な温度制御を維持することが可能となる。   As described above, according to the present embodiment, the above configuration improves the temperature detection resolution in the vicinity of the target temperature in each cooking mode (tempura 180 ° C., boiling water 100 ° C.), thereby enabling highly accurate temperature control. It becomes possible. Furthermore, since the failure detection of the temperature sensor is also performed, it becomes possible to maintain highly accurate temperature detection and highly accurate temperature control continuously for a long period of time.

実施の形態2.
実施の形態1では、接触式センサーである高分解能サーミスタを利用して温度を測定する場合について説明したが、非接触式の高分解能センサーを用いても温度の測定が可能である。本実施の形態では、この非接触式の高分解能センサーとして赤外線センサーを用いた場合について説明する。
図1は本実施の形態でも用いられる。図6は本発明の実施の形態2における非接触センサー(赤外線センサー)の配置位置を示す図である。また、図7は本発明の実施の形態2における誘導加熱調理器の構成を示すブロック図である。図7に示すように非接触センサーである高分解能の赤外線センサー14がIOバス31に接続されている。
次に、本実施の形態について図6及び図7を用いて説明する。
図6に示すように天板3の下方にある加熱コイル24の中央に従来の通常調理用サーミスタ(広温度範囲・低分解能)11を配置するのに加え、天板3の下方でしかも加熱コイル30の外周の外側であって、しかも天板3上の少なくとも前記加熱コイルの上方域の温度を監視できる位置に特定の温度領域に対して検出感度が高い非接触式の温度センサー(例えばサーモパイルなどの赤外線センサー14)を配置して併用する。制御部21は、この赤外線センサー14によって検出された信号により図示しない制御部21は鍋などの被加熱物2の底全体の温度分布が取得できる。これと、従来の通常調理用サーミスタ11から取得された温度情報とに基づいて、底のどの部分に反りがあるかを算出する。
なお、加熱コイル24から外れた位置に配置する理由は、加熱コイル24から発する熱によるノイズの影響を回避するためである。
また、制御部21は、サーミスタ11によって検出された温度と赤外線センサー14によって同時に検出された同じ位置の温度とを比較し、その差が所定値(この値は図2に示すグラフから得られる各サーミスタの温度に応じて変化する検出感度の誤差にマージンを加味した値とし、予め設定値としてメモリ22に格納しておく)以上の場合には、いずれか一方が故障したと判断し、警報出力を行う。これにより、使用者は故障修理などの迅速な対応を行うことができ、結果として故障による誤検出、ひいては誤制御を防止することが可能となる。
Embodiment 2. FIG.
In the first embodiment, the case where the temperature is measured using the high-resolution thermistor that is a contact sensor has been described. However, the temperature can be measured using a non-contact high-resolution sensor. In this embodiment, a case where an infrared sensor is used as the non-contact type high resolution sensor will be described.
FIG. 1 is also used in this embodiment. FIG. 6 is a diagram showing an arrangement position of a non-contact sensor (infrared sensor) in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Moreover, FIG. 7 is a block diagram which shows the structure of the induction heating cooking appliance in Embodiment 2 of this invention. As shown in FIG. 7, a high-resolution infrared sensor 14 that is a non-contact sensor is connected to the IO bus 31.
Next, the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
As shown in FIG. 6, in addition to disposing a conventional normal cooking thermistor (wide temperature range / low resolution) 11 at the center of the heating coil 24 below the top plate 3, the heating coil is also provided below the top plate 3 and below. A non-contact temperature sensor (for example, a thermopile or the like) having high detection sensitivity with respect to a specific temperature region at a position on the top plate 3 that can be monitored at least above the temperature of the heating coil. The infrared sensor 14) is used in combination. The control unit 21 can acquire the temperature distribution of the entire bottom of the object to be heated 2 such as a pan by the signal detected by the infrared sensor 14. Based on this and the temperature information acquired from the conventional normal cooking thermistor 11, it is calculated which part of the bottom is warped.
The reason for disposing the heater coil 24 away from the heating coil 24 is to avoid the influence of noise caused by the heat generated from the heating coil 24.
Further, the control unit 21 compares the temperature detected by the thermistor 11 with the temperature at the same position simultaneously detected by the infrared sensor 14, and the difference is a predetermined value (this value is obtained from the graph shown in FIG. 2). (The value is obtained by adding a margin to the error in detection sensitivity that changes according to the temperature of the thermistor, and is stored in advance in the memory 22 as a set value.) I do. As a result, the user can take quick measures such as repairing a failure, and as a result, it is possible to prevent erroneous detection due to failure, and hence erroneous control.

本実施の形態によれば、上記構成により、目標温度近傍での温度検知分解能が向上するのに加え、反り鍋等が載置されて接触式では温度検知ができない場合でも被加熱物(鍋など)の温度の検知が可能となる。さらに温度センサーの故障検知も行うので、長期間継続的に高精度な温度検知および高精度な温度制御を維持することが可能となる。   According to the present embodiment, in addition to improving the temperature detection resolution in the vicinity of the target temperature according to the above configuration, the object to be heated (such as a pan) even when a warp pan or the like is placed and temperature detection cannot be performed by a contact type ) Temperature can be detected. Furthermore, since the failure detection of the temperature sensor is also performed, it becomes possible to maintain highly accurate temperature detection and highly accurate temperature control continuously for a long period of time.

図1および図5は本実施の形態でも用いられる。また、図8は本発明に係る誘導加熱調理器の実施の形態3における温度特性の異なる複数種類のサーミスタの温度と出力電圧との関係を示す温度特性図である。図8に示すように通常調理用サーミスタは50℃〜300℃程度の広い温度範囲で比較的低い分解能を示すのに対して、沸騰調理用サーミスタは80℃〜120℃の範囲で顕著な温度特性を示し、沸騰調理用の90℃〜110℃の温度帯で通常調理用サーミスタよりも約10倍の高い感度(即ち高い分解能)を示す。また、天ぷら調理用サーミスタは120℃〜220℃の範囲で顕著な温度特性を示し、天ぷら調理用の160℃〜200℃の温度帯で通常調理用サーミスタよりもかなり高い分解能を示す。
図9は図8で示した複数種類のサーミスタの配置位置を示す要部拡大図であり、図9(a)は3つの異なる径を有する加熱コイル(トリプルリングコイル)の加熱コイル間にサーミスタを配置した例、図9(b)は2つの異なる径を有する加熱コイル(ダブルリングコイル)の加熱コイル間にサーミスタを配置した例を示している。なお、図示しないが、ダブルリングコイル1個当たりインバータは2個、トリプルリングコイル1個当たりインバータは3個設けられている。図9に示すように、従来の鍋温度用サーミスタ(広温度範囲・低分解能)11に加え、特定の温度領域に対して検出感度が高いサーミスタをそれぞれ備える。図9(a)では、従来の鍋温度用サーミスタ11と沸騰調理用サーミスタ12と天ぷら調理用サーミスタ13をそれぞれ最も内側のコイルと中間のコイルとの間に配置しており、図9(b)では、従来の鍋温度用サーミスタ11と沸騰調理用サーミスタ12と天ぷら調理用サーミスタ13をそれぞれ最も外側のコイルと中間のコイルとの間に配置している。
次に、動作を説明する。実施の形態1と同様の部分についての説明は省略し、異なる部分について説明する。
制御部21は、目標温度の近傍で温度を測定する場合には、ダブルリングコイルあるいはトリプルリングコイルにおいて、サーミスタの内側のコイルの駆動を停止するように対応するインバータ23を制御する。
これにより、加熱コイル中央部に配置した場合に比べて、目標温度の近傍でのコイルから発する熱及び磁界の影響によるノイズが低減し、温度検知制度が向上する。
なお、上記の例では、温度特性の異なる3種類のサーミスタを配置した場合について説明したが、これに限らず4種類でも5種類でも構わない。すなわち、利用する複数種類の調理の各々に適した温度特性を持つサーミスタを配置すればよい。
Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the present embodiment, a case will be described in which a thermistor is disposed in a heating coil (double ring coil or triple ring coil) having a plurality of different diameters.
1 and 5 are also used in this embodiment. FIG. 8 is a temperature characteristic diagram showing the relationship between temperatures and output voltages of a plurality of types of thermistors having different temperature characteristics in the third embodiment of the induction heating cooker according to the present invention. As shown in FIG. 8, the thermistor for normal cooking shows a relatively low resolution in a wide temperature range of about 50 ° C. to 300 ° C., whereas the thermistor for boiling cooking has remarkable temperature characteristics in the range of 80 ° C. to 120 ° C. In the temperature range of 90 ° C. to 110 ° C. for boiling cooking, the sensitivity is about 10 times higher than that of a normal cooking thermistor (ie, high resolution). Moreover, the tempura cooking thermistor exhibits remarkable temperature characteristics in the range of 120 ° C. to 220 ° C., and exhibits a considerably higher resolution than the normal cooking thermistor in the temperature range of 160 ° C. to 200 ° C. for tempura cooking.
FIG. 9 is an enlarged view of a main part showing the arrangement positions of the plurality of types of thermistors shown in FIG. 8, and FIG. 9A shows a thermistor between the heating coils of three heating coils (triple ring coils) having different diameters. FIG. 9B shows an example in which the thermistor is arranged between the heating coils of two heating coils (double ring coils) having different diameters. Although not shown, two inverters are provided per double ring coil, and three inverters are provided per triple ring coil. As shown in FIG. 9, in addition to a conventional pan temperature thermistor (wide temperature range / low resolution) 11, a thermistor having a high detection sensitivity for a specific temperature region is provided. 9A, a conventional pan temperature thermistor 11, a boiling cooking thermistor 12, and a tempura cooking thermistor 13 are disposed between the innermost coil and the intermediate coil, respectively. Then, the conventional pan temperature thermistor 11, boiling cooking thermistor 12, and tempura cooking thermistor 13 are respectively disposed between the outermost coil and the intermediate coil.
Next, the operation will be described. A description of the same parts as those in the first embodiment will be omitted, and different parts will be described.
When the temperature is measured in the vicinity of the target temperature, the control unit 21 controls the corresponding inverter 23 to stop driving the coil inside the thermistor in the double ring coil or the triple ring coil.
Thereby, compared with the case where it arrange | positions at the heating coil center part, the noise by the influence of the heat and magnetic field which generate | occur | produce from the coil in the vicinity of target temperature reduces, and a temperature detection system improves.
In the above example, the case where three types of thermistors having different temperature characteristics are arranged has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and four or five types may be used. That is, a thermistor having a temperature characteristic suitable for each of a plurality of types of cooking to be used may be disposed.

本実施の形態によれば、上記構成により加熱コイル中央部に配置した場合に比べて、中央部のコイルから発する熱及び磁界の影響によるノイズを低減できるため、コイル直上部(加熱中心部)の温度の検知精度が向上する。   According to the present embodiment, compared to the case where the heating coil is arranged at the center of the heating coil by the above configuration, noise due to the influence of heat and magnetic field generated from the coil at the center can be reduced. Temperature detection accuracy is improved.

実施の形態4.
本実施の形態では、特定の温度領域に対して検出感度が高いサーミスタを複数備え、各サーミスタの検出温度範囲をオーバーラップさせて、各温度帯での分解能の高いセンサーの検出値を用いる場合について説明する。
図1は本実施の形態でも用いられる。また、図10は本発明に係る誘導加熱調理器の実施の形態4を示す温度特性の異なる複数種類のサーミスタの温度と出力電圧との関係を示す温度特性図である。図11は図10で示した複数種類のサーミスタの配置位置を示す要部拡大図であり、加熱コイルの中央にサーミスタを配置した例を示している。また、図12は本発明の実施の形態4における誘導加熱調理器の構成を示すブロック図である。図12に示すようにA〜Bの温度帯で高い分解能をもつ第1のサーミスタ15と、このA〜Bの温度帯近傍のC〜Dの温度帯で高い分解能をもつ第2のサーミスタ16がIOバス31に接続されている。
次に、本実施の形態について図10〜図12を用いて説明する。
図10において、A〜Bの温度帯とC〜Dの温度帯はかなり接近しているか一部重なっている場合を示しており、第1のサーミスタ15はA〜Bの温度帯で高い分解能をもち、第2のサーミスタ16はC〜Dの温度帯で高い分解能をもっている。
制御部21は、周期的に通常調理用サーミスタ11によって検出された電圧値を監視し、この電圧値から調理温度を換算して、A〜Bの温度帯に入った場合には、監視先を通常調理用サーミスタ11から第1のサーミスタ15に切り換え、第1のサーミスタ15からの電圧値を監視して調理温度に換算する。これにより、A〜Bの温度帯での温度測定が高精度で行われるので調理温度の制御も高精度で行うことができる。また、温度帯がC〜Dの温度帯に入った場合には、監視先を第1のサーミスタ15から第2のサーミスタ16に切り換え、第2のサーミスタ16からの電圧値を監視して調理温度に換算する。これにより、C〜Dの温度帯での温度測定が高精度で行われるので調理温度の制御も高精度で行うことができる。以上より、ほぼ連続する温度領域A〜BおよびC〜Dにおいて調理温度の制御を高精度で行うことができる。
Embodiment 4 FIG.
In this embodiment, there are a plurality of thermistors with high detection sensitivity for a specific temperature region, the detection temperature ranges of the thermistors are overlapped, and the detection values of the sensor with high resolution in each temperature range are used. explain.
FIG. 1 is also used in this embodiment. FIG. 10 is a temperature characteristic diagram showing the relationship between the temperature and the output voltage of a plurality of types of thermistors having different temperature characteristics showing the fourth embodiment of the induction heating cooker according to the present invention. FIG. 11 is an enlarged view of a main part showing the arrangement positions of the plurality of types of thermistors shown in FIG. 10, and shows an example in which the thermistors are arranged in the center of the heating coil. Moreover, FIG. 12 is a block diagram which shows the structure of the induction heating cooking appliance in Embodiment 4 of this invention. As shown in FIG. 12, a first thermistor 15 having a high resolution in the temperature zone A to B and a second thermistor 16 having a high resolution in the temperature zone C to D near the temperature zone A to B are provided. It is connected to the IO bus 31.
Next, the present embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
FIG. 10 shows a case where the temperature band of A to B and the temperature band of C to D are quite close or partially overlap, and the first thermistor 15 has a high resolution in the temperature band of A to B. The second thermistor 16 has a high resolution in the temperature range C to D.
The control unit 21 periodically monitors the voltage value detected by the normal cooking thermistor 11, converts the cooking temperature from this voltage value, and enters the temperature range of A to B, the monitoring destination is selected. The normal cooking thermistor 11 is switched to the first thermistor 15, and the voltage value from the first thermistor 15 is monitored and converted into the cooking temperature. Thereby, since the temperature measurement in the temperature range of A to B is performed with high accuracy, the cooking temperature can be controlled with high accuracy. When the temperature zone enters the temperature zone C to D, the monitoring destination is switched from the first thermistor 15 to the second thermistor 16, and the voltage value from the second thermistor 16 is monitored to prepare the cooking temperature. Convert to. Thereby, since the temperature measurement in the temperature range of C to D is performed with high accuracy, the cooking temperature can also be controlled with high accuracy. As described above, the cooking temperature can be controlled with high accuracy in the substantially continuous temperature regions A to B and C to D.

本実施の形態によれば、このように特定の温度領域に対して検出感度が高いサーミスタを複数備え、前記各サーミスタの検出温度範囲をオーバーラップさせて、各温度帯での分解能の高いセンサーの検出値を用いることで温度検出分解能を向上させることができるため、目標温度近傍まで迅速に立ち上げ、しかも幅広い目標温度範囲に対し高精度に温度制御することができる。   According to the present embodiment, a plurality of thermistors having high detection sensitivity in a specific temperature region as described above are provided, and the detection temperature ranges of the respective thermistors are overlapped, so that a sensor with high resolution in each temperature zone can be obtained. Since the temperature detection resolution can be improved by using the detection value, the temperature can be quickly raised to the vicinity of the target temperature, and the temperature can be controlled with high accuracy over a wide target temperature range.

実施の形態5.
以上の実施の形態では、どの温度帯でも温度検出の周期が同じであることを前提としていた。しかし、温度検出の周期を通常調理の温度帯と、特定温度帯で異なるように変えてもよい。本実施の形態では、このような形態について説明する。
通常調理の温度帯では、分解能の比較的低い通常調理用センサー11を使用するため、比較的大雑把な監視および制御をしても問題ない。そこで、制御手段は、所定の温度帯になるまでは、所定の周期で温度検出を行い、検出した温度に基づいて温度制御を行う。また、微妙な温度制御を必要とする調理の場合にはこの調理の温度帯における温度検出の周期を通常調理の場合と同じようにして調理すると具合の悪い場合がある。そこで、このような場合には、制御部21はこの調理の温度帯に入ったことを検知したら、この温度帯で感度の高いセンサーに切り換えると共に、温度検出の周期をより短く制御する。これにより、細かいタイミングで温度を管理できるため、そのタイミングに応じてインバータを駆動させる。これにより、微妙な温度制御を必要とする調理の場合でも木目細かな温度制御が可能になる。
Embodiment 5 FIG.
In the above embodiment, it is assumed that the temperature detection cycle is the same in any temperature range. However, the temperature detection cycle may be changed to be different between the normal cooking temperature zone and the specific temperature zone. This embodiment will be described in this embodiment.
Since the normal cooking sensor 11 having a relatively low resolution is used in the normal cooking temperature range, there is no problem even if relatively rough monitoring and control are performed. Therefore, the control means performs temperature detection at a predetermined cycle until the predetermined temperature zone is reached, and performs temperature control based on the detected temperature. In addition, in the case of cooking that requires delicate temperature control, it may be uncomfortable if cooking is performed in the same manner as in the case of normal cooking in the temperature detection cycle in this cooking temperature zone. Therefore, in such a case, when the control unit 21 detects that the cooking temperature range has been entered, the control unit 21 switches to a sensor having high sensitivity in this temperature range and controls the temperature detection cycle to be shorter. Thus, the temperature can be managed with fine timing, and the inverter is driven according to the timing. As a result, even in the case of cooking that requires delicate temperature control, fine temperature control becomes possible.

実施の形態6.
本実施の形態では、特定直径以下の鍋(小鍋)を検出した場合について説明する。
次に本実施の形態について説明する。
制御部21は機能として鍋判定部を備え、鍋判定部で特定直径以下の鍋(小鍋)が検知された場合には、特定の温度領域に対して検出感度が高いサーミスタを用いて温度制御を行う。
これにより、熱容量が小さい小鍋は投入電力に対する温度変化が相対的に大きくなるため、検出感度が高いサーミスタを用いることで、目標温度に対するオーバシュートを抑制することができる。
Embodiment 6 FIG.
This Embodiment demonstrates the case where the pan (small pan) below a specific diameter is detected.
Next, this embodiment will be described.
The control unit 21 includes a pan determination unit as a function. When a pan (small pan) having a specific diameter or less is detected by the pan determination unit, temperature control is performed using a thermistor having high detection sensitivity for a specific temperature region. Do.
Thereby, since the temperature change with respect to input electric power becomes comparatively large with the small pan with a small heat capacity, the overshoot with respect to target temperature can be suppressed by using a thermistor with high detection sensitivity.

実施の形態7.
なお、制御部21は、目標温度より所定の値だけ離れた目標温度近傍までは従来の鍋温度用サーミスタ(広温度範囲・低分解能)11の検知値を用いて制御し、目標温度の近傍になったら、特定の温度領域に対して検出感度が高いサーミスタの検知値を用いて制御するように構成してもよい。
これにより、目標温度から大きく乖離している場合は、検知温度の制度は要求されないため、従来のサーミスタで温度検知(サンプリング時間間隔を拡大)することで、目標温度への到達時間を低減しつつ、調理目標温度に対して高精度な温度制御をすることができる。
Embodiment 7 FIG.
In addition, the control part 21 controls using the detected value of the conventional pan temperature thermistor (wide temperature range, low resolution) 11 to the vicinity of the target temperature away from the target temperature by a predetermined value, and near the target temperature. Then, it may be configured to control using a detection value of a thermistor having high detection sensitivity for a specific temperature region.
As a result, when there is a large deviation from the target temperature, the detection temperature system is not required. Therefore, by using a conventional thermistor to detect the temperature (expand the sampling time interval), the time to reach the target temperature is reduced. Highly accurate temperature control can be performed with respect to the cooking target temperature.

実施の形態8.
本実施の形態では、あぶり調理について説明する。
図1は本実施の形態でも用いられる。
図13は本発明の実施の形態8におけるあぶり調理を行う場合の温度帯と概念図であり、図13(a)はあぶり調理用のサーミスタの温度特性を示す図であり、通常調理用サーミスタの温度特性との対比で示している。また、図13(b)はあぶり調理を行う場合の様子を示す概念図である。図13(b)において、15はあぶり調理用で高い分解能をもつあぶり調理用サーミスタである。また、図14は本発明の実施の形態7における誘導加熱調理器の構成を示すブロック図である。図14に示すように通常調理用サーミスタ11およびあぶり調理用サーミスタ15はIOバス31に接続されている。
次に、本実施の形態について説明する。
図13(a)に示すようにあぶり調理用温度帯で検出感度が高いあぶり調理用サーミスタ15(300〜400℃)と、金属板30を併用することで、天板3上に載置した金属板を高精度に高温制御して、あぶり調理を可能にする。
制御部21は、あぶり調理用温度帯に到達するまでは、通常調理用サーミスタ11を用いて、大雑把な温度検知と温度制御を行うことで、あぶり調理用温度帯までの到達時間を低減できる。また、あぶり調理用温度帯に到達したら、あぶり調理用サーミスタ15に切り換えて温度検知と温度制御を行う。これにより、あぶり調理の温度制御を高精度で実現できる。
上記のようにあぶり調理用温度帯で検出感度が高いサーミスタと、金属板を併用することで、天板上に載置した金属板を高精度に高温制御して、あぶり調理を行うので、従来のIH調理器では使用できない非金属鍋(土鍋)の加熱、及び干物・海苔等のあぶり調理が可能となる。

The controller 21 can reduce the time required to reach the temperature range for the cooking by performing rough temperature detection and temperature control using the normal cooking thermistor 11 until the temperature range for the cooking is reached. Further, when reaching the temperature range for cooking the abalone, the temperature is switched to the thermistor 15 for cooking the abdomen and temperature detection and temperature control are performed. As a result, the temperature control for the cooking can be realized with high accuracy.
As described above, by using a thermistor with high detection sensitivity in the cooking temperature zone and a metal plate as described above, the metal plate placed on the top plate is controlled at high temperature with high accuracy, and cooking is done conventionally. It is possible to heat non-metal pots (earthen pots) that cannot be used with IH cookers, and to cook brown fish such as dried fish and seaweed.
