A case baking process memory unit 4 stores only cake baking process and baking temperature. A menu input unit 5 selects a bread or cake menu. A timer input unit 6 inputs a time schedule for timer controlled bread making, and a baking period of time for cake making. A control unit 8 controls heaters and motors from the menu input by the menu input unit 5 and the process stored in the bread making process memory unit 3 or the cake baking process memory unit 4 according to the input from the temperature detecting unit 2, and when an output is transmitted from the timer input unit 6, the cooking is controlled so as to finish at the set time.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a bread maker that can automatically bake bread or cakes simply by adding ingredients.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In recent years, bread making machines have become popular, which automatically bake bread when bread ingredients are placed in a container and the machine is started. Moreover,
There is a demand for a bread maker that can bake not only white bread but also French bread, commercially available bread with a soft crust, and other types of bread.

Conventional bread making machines can make a variety of products such as French bread by changing the color of regular bread, changing the bread making process consisting of kneading, fermentation, and baking, or by changing the bread ingredients. I was trying to make bread happen.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the conventional configuration described above, since the purpose is only to make bread, the cooking process is only preset. It was impossible to bake a cake.

An object of the present invention is to provide a bread making machine that solves these problems.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the bread making machine of the present invention comprises a container for storing bread ingredients, a heating means for heating the container, and a kneading means for mixing the bread ingredients. means and
temperature detection means for detecting the temperature of the container;
A bread-making process storage means that stores a plurality of predetermined bread-making processes such as white bread and French bread, which includes a fermentation process and a baking process, and a cake-baking process that stores a baking process for baking a cake that does not include a kneading process and a fermentation process. a memory means, a menu input means for selecting one of the plurality of bread making processes and the cake baking process, a timer time for inputting a timer time for bread making, and a cake baking process using the menu input means. When the baking process is selected, a timer input means for inputting the baking time of the cake, a start means for starting bread making or cake baking, and in response to the output of the start means, the menu input means, the timer input means. control means for controlling the bread making means according to the output of the temperature detection means according to the outputs of the bread making process storage means and the cake baking process storage means; , a bread making or cake menu, and display means for displaying the remaining cooking time.

Effects According to the above configuration, it is possible to enjoy a variety of bread making methods, and also to bake cakes using the same bread maker. You can enjoy making cakes without requiring any settings.

Embodiment Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described based on the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows a block diagram of a bread making machine according to an embodiment of the present invention, and in FIG. This bread making means is composed of a motor for kneading the bread ingredients and a kneading means composed of blades and the like. Reference numeral 2 denotes a temperature detecting means for detecting the temperature of the container and controlling the motor and heater based on the detected temperature. Reference numeral 3 denotes bread-making process storage means for storing bread-making processes for each of a plurality of breads such as French bread and white bread. 4 is a cake baking process memory means for storing the baking process and baking temperature of the cake. 5 is a menu input means for selecting a bread menu such as white bread or French bread or a cake, and also selecting the color of the bread, whether to bake the bread, or whether to stop bread making until the fermentation process to make bread dough. It is.

6 is a timer input means for inputting the timer time for timer bread making and also for inputting the baking time when making a cake, a is a start means for starting bread making or cake baking, and 8 is a control means. , this control means 8 controls bread making according to the process stored in the bread making process storage means 3 or the cake baking process storage means 4 according to the menu input by the menu input means 6, and according to the input from the temperature detection means 2. It controls the heater and motor which are the means 1, and also controls so that when there is an output from the timer input means 6, the cooking is completed at the set time.

Reference numeral 9 denotes a display means, which receives the output from the control means 8 and displays the menu at that time and the remaining time until the end of cooking.

Figure 2 (2L) and (b) show the bread making process and the cake baking process. In this case, the control means 8 shown in FIG. 1 is used to control the baking process so that kneading and fermentation are not performed, and only the baking process is performed.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the above embodiments, according to the present invention, cakes can be easily made using a conventional bread maker without requiring difficult temperature control.
