Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001]

The present invention relates to a system for displaying a residual heat of an electric range, and more particularly, to a system for displaying a residual heat by interlocking the illumination of a hood unit provided with an electric range with a crater temperature of an electric range.

Recently, a lot of electric ranges have been installed for aesthetic sense and space utilization of kitchen utensils and the like.

In the electric range, unlike a gas range, an upper plate of a material having a good thermal conductivity is provided on an upper portion of a heating element provided in a fireplace, a cooking device is placed on the upper plate, and the cooking appliance is heated by heating the upper plate by heat generation of the heating element .

Such an electric range is widely used because it does not cause an accident such as gas leakage or explosion, and provides stability and convenience to the user.

However, even if the operation of the heating element is stopped after the use of the electric range, the top plate of the furnace side maintains a high temperature state for about 30 minutes. That is, there is a residual heat. The use of such residual heat may be advantageous in that it is possible to cook for a certain period of time after the operation of the heating element is stopped. However, if the heating element is not used, there is a risk of burning if the user accidentally touches the top plate.

Particularly, in the case of the upper panel, the heating element provided at the lower part is often coated with a dark color system so as not to be exposed to the outside, so that it is difficult to visually discriminate the state of the heating part.

Patent Document 1 discloses an electric range equipped with a temperature display unit for displaying the temperature of a fireplace for displaying an electric range residual heat, but only a small temperature or a dangerous indication such as "H" appears on one side of the electric range, It is very difficult for a user to intuitively recognize dangerous conditions. In addition, by providing a separate temperature display unit, the manufacturing cost of the electric range rises.
