Conventional voltage sensors have a structure in which a flat piezoelectric ceramic is bonded to a metal support plate. Temperature changes are transmitted to the piezoelectric ceramic through the support plate with the support plate side as the detection surface, and output is generated by the pyroelectric effect of this piezoelectric ceramic. In order to obtain a signal, the electrode structure is generally such that the back electrode of the piezoelectric ceramic is led to the front electrode through the side surface of the piezoelectric ceramic, by coating the back electrode and the front electrode with a conductive paste in advance to make them conductive. The support plate is attached to the inner wall of the cooking chamber or the exhaust passage of the cooking chamber.

Effect: With this configuration, unlike conventional piezoelectric sensors, there is no need to form an electrode that passes through the side surface of the piezoelectric ceramic to the front surface in order to route the back electrode of the piezoelectric ceramic to the front surface, and the bonding surface of the piezoelectric ceramic Since the piezoelectric ceramic can be made flat, the stress on the piezoelectric ceramic is reduced and no cracks occur, and furthermore, there is no disconnection or cracks in the electrodes at the winding portion during assembly. Furthermore, by using an elastic adhesive to bond the piezoelectric ceramic and the support plate, stress can be further reduced and stability against high temperatures and rapid temperature changes can be increased.
