Description

An overheating prevent system of gas range

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a gas range overheat prevention system for preventing overheating of a gas range, thereby enhancing safety in use.

Generally, the gas range is a simple operation because the gas fuel is mixed with the air to perform the spark ignition, thereby causing a safety accident due to gas leakage or overheating due to carelessness of the user.

Therefore, in order to prevent such safety accidents, an overheat prevention system through a safety device is mandatory in the gas range.

Illustratively, according to the KS standard, it is specified that the safety device is operated at a maximum oil temperature of 300 ° C or lower so that the gas passage to the burner is closed and not automatically opened again.

The overheat protection system applied to the gas range can be roughly divided into two types, a thermistor type and a bimetal type.

In the thermistor type, the temperature of the bottom of the cooking vessel is read as a resistance value through a thermistor and sent to the control PCB of the gas range. In the control PCB, when the temperature measured by the thermistor corresponds to the high cut temperature, Gas supply is interrupted.

The bimetal system includes a bimetal device 6 connected in series to any one of a plurality of lines connecting the MPU and the thermocouple and spaced apart from the digestion thermocouple 4 at one side of the burner head 2 (See Fig. 1)

According to the conventional bimetal type overheat prevention system, when the cooking vessel is overheated and the radiant heat emitted from the cooking vessel exceeds a predetermined temperature, the bimetal device senses it and is switched off, thereby blocking gas supply from the MPU.

On the other hand, in such a conventional overheat prevention system, since a thermistor type requires expensive parts such as a control PCB, a consumer burden due to purchase of a gas range product is increased, and a problem such as a malfunction due to a failure of a control PCB have.

In the bimetal system, since the bimetallic device is disposed apart from the cooking vessel, the temperature of the cooking vessel is influenced by not only the radiant heat transmitted from the cooking vessel but also the temperature of the gas flame. do.

Illustratively, when a bimetal device having a high cut temperature of 180 DEG C is used and fried cooking is carried out at a temperature of 200 to 300 DEG C using edible oil, before the temperature of the contents contained in the cooking container reaches 300 DEG C, Was 180 ° C or more, and the bimetal device was off-switched to prevent overheating of the gas range.

However, when cooking is performed using water, the sensing temperature reaches the high cut temperature even before the temperature of the contents reaches the boiling point of water according to the shape of the cooking vessel, and the bimetal device is switched off, The operation of the range was stopped.

As described above, according to the conventional bimetal method, the sensing temperature of the bimetal device is determined based on the radiation emitted from the cooking container and the ignition flame, so that the temperature can not be measured accurately according to the requirements such as the shape of the cooking container There has been a problem that it is difficult to use the gas range effectively and precisely.

In order to solve such a problem, it is possible to consider a configuration in which the bimetal device is brought into direct contact with the cooking container. However, since the conventional bimetal device is not a heat resistant structure, There is a possibility that problems may occur due to thermal deformation or the like.

That is, in the case of a cooking vessel having a very high thermal conductivity, such as a pot, the amount of moisture contained therein evaporates, and the superheating speed becomes very high, and the high-cut temperature is rapidly exceeded.

In this case, the operation of the gas range is stopped by the bimetal device, but the cooking vessel has already reached a considerable overheating condition and consequently a thermal deformation of the components of the bimetal device is likely to occur.

If the conventional bimetal device causes a problem due to thermal deformation, even if the immediate shut-off operation is performed, the safety is not very low due to the use of the gas range because the re-operation is not normally performed .

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in order to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a cooking apparatus and a cooking apparatus capable of accurately determining the temperature of the cooking vessel without being affected by the shape and material of the cooking vessel, The present invention also provides a bimetal device for preventing overheating of a gas range.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 2 to 5B.

2, the system for preventing overheating of the gas range includes a bimetal device 10 provided in a gas range for sensing an overheating state. The bimetal device 10 includes a burner head 2, And is disposed so as to protrude through a through hole formed in the burner cover 3 so as to be in contact with the bottom surface of the cooking container C.

3 and 4, the bimetal device 10 includes a cylindrical case 12, a cushion spring 14 built in the case 12, and a cushion spring 14 supported by the cushion spring 14. [ A movable terminal 18 and a fixed terminal 19 disposed in the terminal case 16; a terminal cover 20 provided on an upper surface of the terminal case 16; An inner cap 26 provided on the top of the terminal cover 20 to cover the bimetal disc 22 and a bimetal disc 22 mounted on the bimetal disc 22, And an outer cap 28 disposed above the inner cap 26. The operation cap 24 is mounted on the operation cap 24 to move up and down.

The terminal cylinder 16 and the operation pin 24 of the bimetal device 10 are made of a ceramic material having high heat resistance.

The movable terminal 18 and the fixed terminal 19 of the bimetal device 10 are made of brass (C2680R) material having good heat resistance and conductivity.

The movable contact 181 and the fixed contact 19 of the bimetal device 10 are provided with a movable contact 181 and a fixed contact 191 which are detachably in contact with each other, (191) is made of an Ag-alloy material.

The movable terminal 18 has the same shape as a leaf spring and has a structure that can be elastically deformed by the pressing of the operation pin 24 as described later.

The terminal cover 20 is coupled to the terminal cylinder 16 so that the movable terminal 18 and the fixed terminal 19 are not exposed to the outside. The upper surface of the terminal cover 20 is supported by the end of the bimetal disk 22 A jaw portion 201 is formed.

Also, the inner cap 26 is made of an aluminum material, and the outer cap 28 is made of a stainless steel material.

The operation of the overheat prevention system of the gas range according to the present invention will now be described.

The bimetal device 10 is disposed at the center of the burner head 2 and protrudes through the through holes formed in the burner cover 3 so that when the cooking container C is seated in the cooking position, The outer cap 28 of the bimetal device 10 and the bottom surface of the cooking container C are brought into direct contact with each other. At this time, the impact of the contact between the cooking container C and the outer cap 28 is alleviated by the buffer spring 14.

The change in temperature of the cooking container C is transmitted to the bimetal device 10 in a precise manner because the bottom surface of the cooking container C and the outer cap 28 are in direct contact with each other. Off switching operation is performed according to whether or not the high cut temperature of the temperature transmitted from the microcomputer C is exceeded. The switching operation of the bimetal device 10 is performed according to the following principle.

5A, when the conductive heat transmitted from the bottom surface of the cooking container C to the outer cap 28 does not exceed the high cut temperature, the movable contact 181 of the movable terminal 18 and the fixed terminal The fixed contacts 191 of the switch 19 maintain the ON state in contact with each other, and the MPU also maintains the open state, thereby continuing the gas supply.

  At this time, the bimetal disc 22 is kept convex upward, and the actuating pin 24 is disposed upwardly and spaced apart from the movable terminal 18.

When the conduction heat transmitted from the cooking container C exceeds the high cut temperature, the bimetal disc 22 is deformed as shown in FIG. 5B and is converted into a downwardly convexly curved state, Is moved downwardly by the bimetal disc 22 to push the movable terminal 18 downward.

When the movable terminal 18 is pushed down by the operation pin 24, the movable contact 181 and the fixed contact 191 are short-circuited to be switched off, thereby switching the MPU to the closed state, The supply is interrupted.

 When the temperature of the cooking container C becomes lower than the high cut temperature, the bimetal disk 22 is again deformed to be convex upward upward and the shape of the movable contact 181 is resiliently restored, The pressing state of the pin is released and the movable contact 181 and the fixed contact 191 are switched to the ON state in which they are in contact again.

The MPU which is once switched to the closed state maintains the closed state irrespective of the on switching operation of the bimetal device 10 and is switched to the open state to supply the gas only when the user operates the ignition valve.

According to the present invention, as described above, since the high cut temperature of the bimetal device 10 is determined by the radiation heat due to the fact that the cooking container C and the bimetal device 10 are separated from each other as described above, The bimetal device 10 directly measures the temperature of the cooking container C in direct contact with the cooking container C so that the accuracy of the bimetal device 10 is improved. .

According to the present invention, as described above, the terminal cylinder 16 and the operation pin 24 constituting the bimetal device 10 are made of a ceramic material having high heat resistance, and the movable terminal 18 and the fixed terminal 19 Is made of a brass (C2680R) material having good heat resistance and conductivity and the movable contact 181 and the fixed contact 191 are made of an Ag-alloy material, so that the electrical operation stability do.

That is, according to the present invention, even when the cooking container C is excessively heated due to evaporation of water or the like, the bimetal device 10 is damaged due to thermal deformation , There is little risk of a stable and continuous re-operation.
