In addition, there is an advantage of achieving a simple and beautiful appearance.

When cooking using such an electric range, accurately reproducing a prescribed recipe is a very important problem in terms of taste and texture of food. The electric range can control the heating temperature by controlling the heating power. When only the intensity of the heating power is displayed, it is difficult to set the temperature because the correct temperature is not displayed. In addition, even when the temperature is displayed, there is a problem in that the temperature provided by the electric range and the temperature of the heated cooking container do not exactly match, so that the taste and texture of the food are deteriorated.

Accordingly, there is a need for a cooking device capable of accurately measuring the temperature of a heated cooking container and maintaining the aesthetics of an electric range.

In addition, in the case of a temperature sensing device used to measure the temperature of a heated cooking container, since it may be easily contaminated by food during the cooking process, cleaning is required. Accordingly, there is a need to provide a temperature sensing device capable of preventing failures from occurring during the cleaning process.

On the other hand, according to the embodiment, the filter fixing decor 320 may be manufactured by perforating and bending a plate-shaped metal plate. For example, the open portion 161 may be formed by perforating a portion of a metal plate. In addition, the decor leg 324 may be formed by bending a portion of a metal plate. In addition, the leg bar 325 and the fixed foot 326 constituting the decor leg 324 may also be formed by bending a portion of the metal plate constituting the decor leg 324, respectively.

In addition, the leg bar 325 may be a (rectangular) three-dimensional structure formed by folding a plate-shaped portion connected to the decor body 321 a plurality of times. In addition, the fixed foot 326 may also be a three-dimensional structure in which at least a portion of the extension portion is folded forward so as to protrude to one side. Accordingly, the rigidity of the leg bar 325 may be improved.

That is, the filter fixing decor 320 may be configured by drilling and/or bending a single plate-shaped metal plate. Therefore, the manufacturing of the filter-fixed decor 320 is simple, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

14 and 15 are views showing a coupling structure between the filter unit 300 and the casing unit 100 in cross section.

Hereinafter, a combination of the filter unit 300 and the casing unit 100 will be described.

First, the filter body 310 may be inserted into the filter body insertion groove 162 of the casing base 110. As described above, the filter body 310 has a shape corresponding to the shape of the filter body insertion groove 162 of the casing base 110, and the filter body 310 can be inserted into the filter body insertion groove 162. have. In this case, according to an embodiment, a predetermined attachment means may be further provided between the filter body 310 and the filter body insertion groove 162. For example, an attachment means such as a double-sided tape may be provided between the filter body 310 and the filter body 310 inner groove, so that the filter body 310 may be fixed in the filter body insertion groove 162.

Subsequently, the filter decor is coupled to the casing base 110 while covering at least a portion of the filter body 310 in front of the filter body 310.

In this case, the decor body 321 of the filter decor may be inserted into the decor body insertion groove 163 of the casing base 110. As described above, the deco body 321 has a shape corresponding to the shape of the deco body insertion groove 163 of the casing base 110, and the deco body 321 may be inserted into the deco body insertion groove 163. have. In this case, according to an embodiment, a predetermined attachment means may be further provided between the decor body 321 and the interior groove 163 or between the decor body 321 and the filter body 310. For example, an attachment means such as a light-transmitting double-sided tape is provided between the decor body 321 and the decor body 321 inner groove, or between the decor body 321 and the filter body 310 to decorate the decor body 321 It can be fixed in the body insertion groove 163. As in the above-described embodiment, it is also possible to provide an adhesive surface 322 on the back of the decor body 321.

In addition, the decor leg 324 of the filter decor is inserted into the leg fixing groove 164 of the casing base 110. When the decor leg 324 is inserted into the leg fixing groove 164, the fixing foot 326 provided in the decor leg 324 may be caught by the locking protrusion 165 in the inside of the leg fixing groove 164 to be fitted. . Therefore, the filter fixing deco 320 may be stably coupled to the casing base 110.

After coupling the filter fixing deco 320 to the casing base 110 as described above, the casing cover 120 is coupled to the casing base 110. At this time, when the casing cover 120 and the casing base 110 are coupled, the cover protrusion 122 located in front of the casing cover 120 passes through the through hole 168 located in the front upper portion of the casing base 110. It penetrates and protrudes downward. The cover protrusion 122 penetrating the through hole 168 and protruding downwardly covers the upper portion of the deco body of the filter deco from the front. Therefore, the upper portion of the filter decor is fixed by the cover protrusion 122.

As described above, the lower portion of the filter fixing deco 320 is fixed to the casing portion 100 by inserting the deco leg 324 into the leg groove of the casing base 110. In addition, the upper portion of the filter fixing deco 320 is fixed to the casing portion 100 as the deco body 321 is covered by the cover protrusion 122 of the casing cover 120. That is, the filter fixing deco 320 may be stably fixed to the casing 100 by fixing the upper portion and the lower portion respectively.

Hereinafter, an effect of the filter unit 300 and the temperature sensing module 30 having a filter fixing structure according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described.

The temperature sensing module 30 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes the filter unit 300 so that light incident on the sensor unit is appropriately filtered, so that temperature measurement can be accurate.

In addition, the filter body 310 may be stably fixed to the casing unit 100 by the filter fixing decor 320.

In particular, the temperature sensing module 30 has a high possibility of being contaminated by food during cooking. For example, there may be a case where soup overflows or oil splashes and various contaminants bury the temperature sensing module 30.

Therefore, for accurate temperature measurement, the user must properly clean the temperature sensing module 30. If the filter is not stably fixed to the casing 100, the filter may be damaged during the washing process or the casing 100 You can also deviate from For example, when the filter is simply fixed to the casing 100 by an adhesive or adhesive tape, such breakage and separation may easily occur.

However, according to the embodiment of the present invention, as the filter fixing deco 320 is provided, the filter body 310 can be safely fixed to the casing 100, and thus, failure of the temperature sensing module 30 can be prevented. I can.

In the above, preferred embodiments have been illustrated and described, but the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and common knowledge in the technical field to which the present invention pertains without departing from the gist of the present invention claimed in the claims. Of course, various modifications may be made by the possessor, and these modifications should not be understood individually from the technical idea or perspective of the present invention.
