Abstract

PURPOSE:To allow an easy and proper adjustment of the quantity of water by providing a spout at the upper end opening rim of an inner pan and also providing water level indicating lines which coincide with the water surface of the water when inclining the inner pan until the water surface of the water corresponding to the rice contained comes to the same height as the spout. CONSTITUTION:At a proper part of the upper end opening rim of an inner pan 2, a spout 7 a part of the opening rim of which is transformed into a necessary projecting shape is provided, and on the inner peripheral surface of the inner pan 2 which is the side part to the spout 7, a plurality of water level indicating lines 8 are provided. Those lines 8 are provided on a part where coincides with the water surface of the water when the inner pan 2 is inclined with the spout 7 at the lowest position of the opening rim until the water surface of the water corresponding to the rice contained in the pan 2 comes to the same height as the spout 7. When measuring the water to be poured into the inner pan 2 after washing the rice, the user pour a little larger quantities of water than necessary into the pan 2, and pour out water from the spout 7 until the water surface comes to the water level indicating line 8 proper to the rate of rice while inclining the inner pan 2 with the spout 7 at the lowest position of the opening rim. Then the proper quantity of water can be obtained.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention comprises: 1. This relates to a jar rice cooker used in ordinary households.

[Conventional technology]

Traditionally, this type of jar rice cooker has had an inner pot that houses rice and water removably housed within the rice cooker body, which is equipped with a heater that heats the inner pot. There are multiple water level display lines on the inner bottom and bottom line that indicate the water corresponding to the rice at the appropriate location, and when washing rice prior to rice cooking, the inner pot can be removed from the rice cooker body. After adding the required amount of rice and rinsing with tap water, the water level was adjusted so that the water level in the inner pot coincided with the water level indicator line corresponding to the rice.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

However, as shown in -1-, if the water level display line is placed on the inner circumferential surface of the inner pot and the inner bottom surface, then the inner pot should be placed on the sink or on a table each time when checking the water level. Since the pot is placed on a horizontal surface such as a large surface, the inner pot must be tilted repeatedly until it becomes suitable for water. -II There was a problem of being forced to perform efficient work.

Also, when cooking rice with a small amount of H1, the amount of water is naturally small, so if there is even a slight deviation between the adjusted water level and the small line on the water level table, it will affect the cooking time. +J+
The water operation must be repeated several times, and the water surface will oscillate and be unstable immediately after the water is placed in the wrong place. << Especially, the above-mentioned small size was inconvenient when cooking rice.

The present invention was made in view of these problems, and
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a jar rice cooker that allows water volume adjustment to be performed much more easily and accurately than before by checking the water level display line in the inner pot.

[Means to solve the problem]

In order to achieve such an object, the jar rice cooker of the present invention has an inner pot that accommodates rice and water removably housed in the rice cooker main body, and a heating means for heating the inner pot that is connected to the rice cooker. A jar rice cooker which is built into the main body of the rice cooker, wherein a drain is provided at one edge of the inner pot, and the water level is set at a water level corresponding to J-71 of rice stored in the inner pot. Until the drainage water 1-1 reaches the same height as the 1-1 water Ll, the inner pot reaches the water level when the inner pot is tilted with the inner pot at the lowest point between the inner pots [-1]. This pot is characterized by a water level indicator line provided on the inner circumference of the pot.

[For production]

According to the configuration described in H, when adjusting the amount of water in the inner pot after washing rice, the inner pot is filled with slightly more water than the required amount, and the inner pot is opened when the water 11 is opened. A suitable amount of water can be obtained by tilting the rice bowl at the same level and draining water from the drain port until the water surface overlaps the water level indicator line corresponding to the amount of rice.

In this case, drainage can be done by simply tilting the inner pot while checking the water level, so you only need to tilt the inner pot by - degrees, and there is almost no shaking of the water surface during operation, making it easy and accurate. 51 quantities can be produced.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a jar rice cooker according to this embodiment, in which (1) is the rice cooker main body, (2) is a self-bottomed cylindrical inner pot that accommodates rice and water, This inner pot (2
) is removably stored in the pot storage section (3) in the rice cooker main body (1). A heater (4) serving as a first stage of heating for heating the inner pot (2) is arranged below the pot storage section (3) of the rice cooker main body (1) along the outer bottom surface of the pot storage section (3). When cooking rice, the inner pot (2) housed in the pot storage section (3) of the rice cooker main body (1) is heated by the heating action of this heater (4).

As shown in FIG. 2, between the upper ends of the inner pot (2) 1-1

In addition, it is desirable to attach a number indicating the numerical value of the displayed water level to each water level display line (8).

〔Effect of the invention〕

As described in 1-1 below, when using the jar rice cooker of the present invention, a drain [1 is provided at the 1-1 end open L-1 edge of the inner pot, and an amount of water corresponding to the amount of rice accommodated in the inner pot is provided. tJl until the water ■l becomes the same height as the wastewater [1].
A water level indicator line is provided on the inner periphery of the inner pot that corresponds to the water level when the inner pot is tilted with water [1] at the lowest level of the opening edge of the inner pot. Pot (-
II Do not tilt the water when it is at the lowest point on the edge of the opening 11, then wait until it is in the middle of the water level indicator line that corresponds to the water surface or rice 111. You can set it to water 111.

Therefore, draining water is easy and quick, since it is frustrating to keep tilting the inner pot without checking the water level, so you only have to tilt the inner pot once, and there is almost no shaking of the water surface during the operation. Moreover, it was able to accurately perform the old instep, and it produced an excellent effect that had never been seen before.
