- the cooling air C blown out from the blower device 17 toward the near side is guided by the duct 18 to cool each heat generating component 16 of the control circuit 15.
- the cooling air C that has cooled each heat generating component 16 flows in the front direction as it is, passes through the vent of the front wall 19a of the sub case 19, and enters the first exhaust passage 32 that is the front exhaust passage. And so on.
- the cooling air C exhausted from the subcase 19 is brought into contact with the front wall 22a of the main case 22 in the first exhaust passage 32, and the flow of the cooling air C is bent by approximately 90 degrees. Since the right end portion of the first exhaust flow path 32 is closed, the cooling air C flows toward the second exhaust flow path 34 that is the left side exhaust flow path. In this way, the first exhaust passage 32 flows in the left direction and reaches the second exhaust passage 34.
- the second exhaust passage 34 In the second exhaust passage 34, it abuts on the left side wall 22b of the main case 22, is further bent by approximately 90 degrees, flows along the second exhaust passage 34, and flows into the rear side wall 22d on the rear side. It is discharged backward from the formed exhaust port 21. That is, the discharge direction of the cooling air exhausted from the exhaust port 21 is a direction reverse to the flow direction of the cooling air C after the control circuit 15 is cooled inside the sub case 19. As described above, the cooling air C discharged from the sub case 19 flows through the first exhaust flow path 32 and the second exhaust flow path 34, so that the exhaust direction of the cooling air C discharged from the exhaust port 21 is changed.
- the control circuit 15 is cooled and is reverse to the discharge direction of the cooling air discharged from the sub case 18, and is bent by approximately 180 degrees.
- the flow vector of the cooling air C is mainly flow in the back side direction.

If an exhaust port is formed in the first side wall against which the cooling air C discharged from the sub case 19 hits, the flow direction of the cooling air discharged from the exhaust port is not constant, and in all directions It flows. As a result, for example, when there is an obstacle facing the exhaust port, the cooling air C hits the obstacle and the flow stagnates, and then turns back and flows toward the intake port. The flow direction of the cooling air C varies, and the flow velocity is small. Therefore, most of the cooling air C discharged from the exhaust port is sucked from the intake port.

- the induction heating cooker of the fifteenth embodiment has an induction heating block 33 having the same configuration as the induction heating block 33 in the induction heating cooker of the first embodiment (see FIG. 3). .
- the basic configuration of the induction heating cooker according to the fifteenth embodiment is the same as that of the above-described induction heating cooker according to the first embodiment, different points will be mainly described.
- components having the same functions and configurations as those in the induction heating cooker of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and detailed description thereof is omitted. The explanation of 1 applies.
- the exhaust port 21 is formed in the vicinity of the front wall 22a in the left side wall 22b of the main case 22, as shown in FIG. That is, the exhaust port 21 is formed on the front side of the left side wall 22b, and is provided in the flow direction in the first exhaust flow channel 32 (left direction in FIG. 18). Communicate.
- the front wall 22a of the main case 22 is arranged in the direction of the cooling air C sent from the blower 17 to the control circuit 15. Further, the first exhaust passage 32 is constituted by the front wall 22a.
- the intake port 20 is formed on the back side of the bottom plate 22 c of the main case 22, and the exhaust port 21 is formed on the left side wall 22 b of the main case 22.
- the front wall 22a of the main case 22 corresponds to the first side wall.
- the cooling air C sucked from the air inlet 20 by the air blower 17 is blown out from the air blower 17 toward the near side in order to cool the control circuit 15.
- the cooling air C blown out from the blower 17 toward the near side is guided by the duct 18 to cool each heat generating component 16 (the switching element 27, the resonance capacitor 29, etc.) of the control circuit 15.
- the cooling air C that has cooled each heat generating component 16 flows toward the front side as it is, passes through the vent of the front wall 19a of the first sub case 19 and passes through the first exhaust flow that is the front exhaust passage. It leads to the road 32.
- the cooling air C from the first sub case 19 hits the front wall 22a of the main case 22, and the flow of the cooling air C is bent by approximately 90 degrees. Since the right end portion of the first exhaust passage 32 is closed, the cooling air C flows in the left direction through the first exhaust passage 32, and the exhaust port 21 formed in the left side wall 22 b of the main case 22. Discharged from.
- the cooling air C discharged from the exhaust port 21 flows in the left direction in the first exhaust flow path 32, the flow vector in the left direction is the main flow. For this reason, the cooling air C discharged from the exhaust port 21 hits the inner wall surface of the kitchen cabinet 2 facing the exhaust port 21.
- the cooling air hitting the inner wall surface of the kitchen cabinet 2 is closed on the front side and provided with a ventilation port 23 on the back side, and therefore flows approximately 90 degrees and flows in the direction of the back side. At this time, the cooling air C flows along the space between the inner wall surface of the kitchen cabinet 2 and the left side wall 22b of the main case 22 of the induction heating cooker.
- the cooling air C discharged from the exhaust port 21 flows in the direction toward the back side only by being bent by approximately 90 degrees, and flows while maintaining a certain flow velocity. Therefore, it is difficult to be re-sucked from the air inlet 20 formed in the bottom plate 22c of the main case 22, and the induction cooking device of the fifteenth embodiment has improved cooling performance. Furthermore, since the exhaust gas that hits the inner wall surface of the kitchen cabinet 2 and flows in the direction of the back side reaches the ventilation port 23 as it is, it is difficult to be re-sucked from the intake port 20.

Therefore, there is a concern that pressure loss occurs in this flow path, the rotation speed of the blower 17 decreases, the flow rate of the cooling air C decreases, and the cooling performance decreases.
- a sirocco fan is used as the air blower 17, and the flow of the cooling air C blown from the sirocco fan has a flow vector component in the clockwise direction that is the rotation direction of the sirocco fan.
- the flow path that turns in the clockwise direction from the intake port 20 to the exhaust port 21 has the same rotation direction as the flow vector of the cooling air C blown from the sirocco fan. Therefore, even when the flow path is bent at approximately 90 degrees as in the fifteenth embodiment, the flow is less likely to be disturbed in the flow path. Thus, in the induction heating cooker of Embodiment 15, the pressure loss of the whole flow path is reduced, and the reduction of the cooling air flow rate can be suppressed.
- the cooling air flow C is a flow vector component in the clockwise direction that is the rotation direction of the sirocco fan. Therefore, it bends clockwise as it is and tends to flow toward the back side.

Abstract
Description
図26は、特許文献1に記載された従来のビルトイン式の誘導加熱調理器の内部構成を示す平面図である。図26に示すように、キッチンキャビネット50の吸気口55および排気口57がキッチンキャビネット50の手前側(使用者が存在する側)に大きな開口部分を形成して設けられている。キッチンキャビネット50の内部に配設されている誘導加熱調理器51の吸気口54は、加熱コイルなど52などを冷却するための冷却ファン53に対向して形成され、誘導加熱調理器53の底面の手前側に配置されている。一方、誘導加熱調理器51の排気口58,59は、背面側(誘導加熱調理器51の後方側)と、側面側(誘導加熱調理器51の右側面側)に設けられている。背面側の排気口59と、側面側の排気口58は、図26に示す誘導加熱調理器の前後方向に延びる中心軸により分割された2つの領域において、右側領域に配置されており、誘導加熱調理器51の吸気口54が形成されている左側領域とは反対側の領域に設けられている。
図26に示す従来の誘導加熱調理器においては、キッチンキャビネット50の左側の領域に形成された吸気口55からの冷却風を、誘導加熱調理器51における左側の領域にある吸気口54から吸気し、右側の領域にある誘導加熱調理器51の排気口58,59からキッチンキャビネット50の排気口57を介して排気するように構成されている。このとき、キッチンキャビネット内部においては、吸気と排気を分離するために、誘導加熱調理器51の前後方向に延びる中心軸に沿って配置された分離板56が設けられている。
前記の従来の誘導加熱調理器においては、分離板56を設けてキッチンキャビネット50の吸気口55と排気口57とを分離している。もし、キッチンキャビネット50の吸気口55と排気口57とを分離する分離板56を設けない場合には、以下のような問題を有している。誘導加熱調理器の吸気口54はキッチンキャビネット50の内部空気を裏面から垂直方向に吸気する構成であるため、当該誘導加熱調理器の吸気口54はキッチンキャビネット50の吸気口55から流入する外部からの冷気だけでなく、当該誘導加熱調理器の排気口58,59から排出された排気の一部を再吸引することになる。この結果、このように構成された誘導加熱調理器は、吸気温度が上昇するという問題を有している。
被加熱物を載置するトッププレートの下方に設けられ、前記被加熱物を誘導加熱する加熱コイルと、
発熱部品を有し、前記加熱コイルに供給する高周波電流を形成して制御する制御回路と、
吸気口から冷却風を取り込み、前記制御回路に前記冷却風を送風し、前記冷却風を排気口から排出する送風装置と、
前記トッププレートとともに外観を構成し、前記加熱コイル、制御回路および送風装置が配設されたメインケースと、を備えた誘導加熱調理器であって、
前記メインケースは、前記吸気口から前記制御回路に送られた冷却風の流れに対向するよう配置された第1の側面壁を有し、
前記メインケースの内部において、前記第1の側面壁以外の部分に形成された前記吸気口から吸引された冷却風が前記制御回路を冷却した後、前記第1の側面壁に沿って流れて、前記第1の側面壁以外の部分に形成された前記排気口から排気されるよう構成されている。
前記排気口からの冷却風の排出方向が、前記制御回路を冷却した後の冷却風の流れ方向の逆方向となるよう、前記第1の側面壁に沿って流れた冷却風が前記第2の側面壁に沿って流れて前記排気口から排出されるよう構成されてもよい。
第1の排気流路は、前記第1の側面壁と、前記第1の側面壁に対向する前記サブケースの側面壁との間に形成され、前記制御回路を冷却した後の冷却風が前記側面壁に当たり、前記第1の排気流路を一定方向に流れるよう前記内部空間内に形成されてもよい。
前記第1の排気流路を前記操作部の下側に配置してもよい。
前記第1の側面壁により構成された第1の排気流路に沿って流れた冷却風が、前記第2の側面壁により構成された第2の排気流路および前記第3の側面壁により構成された第3の排気流路のそれぞれに沿って流れて、前記第2の排気流路と連通する第1の排気口および前記第3の排気流路と連通する第2の排気口から排気されるように構成されてもよい。
前記加熱コイルと前記制御回路と前記送風装置とを備える誘導加熱ブロックが、前記トッププレートの下方に複数設けられ、
それぞれの前記誘導加熱ブロックにおいて、それぞれの前記制御回路を冷却する冷却風の流れ方向が同一であり、それぞれの前記制御回路を冷却した後の冷却風が前記第1の側面壁に当たるように、前記メインケースの内部に並設されており、
前記第1の側面壁に当たった冷却風が、前記第1の側面壁に沿って流れて、前記排気口から排気されるよう構成されてもよい。
前記第1の側面壁に沿って流れる冷却風の流れる方向が、複数並設された前記サブケースの並設方向と平行であり、
前記第2の側面壁に沿って流れる冷却風の流れる方向が、複数並設された前記サブケースの並設方向と直交するよう構成してもよい。
図1は、本発明に係る実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器の全体を示す斜視図である。図2は本発明に係る実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器をキッチンキャビネットに組み込んだ設置状態を示す断面図である。図3は本発明に係る実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器の水平断面図であり、図2におけるIII-III線による断面図である。
したがって、実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1においては、キッチンキャビネット2の内部空間における比較的に温度の低い下方の空気を吸気口20から冷却風Cとして吸引している。また、排気口21からは温度の高い空気をキッチンキャビネット2の内部空間の上方に排気するよう構成されている。
仮に、サブケース19から排出された冷却風Cが当たる第1の側面壁に排気口が形成されていた場合、その排気口からは排出される冷却風は流れ方向が一定ではなく、あらゆる方向に流れていく。その結果、例えば、排気口と対向して障害物などがある場合、冷却風Cがその障害物などに当たって流れが澱んだ後、折り返して吸気口の方向へ流れていく。その冷却風Cの流れ方向もまちまちであり、流速も小さい流れとなっている。したがって、排気口から排出された冷却風Cの多くが吸気口から吸気されることになる。
以下、本発明に係る実施の形態2の誘導加熱調理器について添付の図面を参照して説明する。図4は、本発明に係る実施の形態2の誘導加熱調理器の内部構成を示す水平断面図である。なお、実施の形態2の誘導加熱調理器において、前述の実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1と基本構成は同じであるため、異なる点を中心に説明する。以下の実施の形態2の説明においては、実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1における構成要素と同じ機能、構成を有するものには同じ符号を付し、その詳細な説明は省略して実施の形態1の説明を適用する。
実施の形態2の誘導加熱調理器においては、送風装置17からの冷却風Cがダクト18に案内されて、制御回路15の各発熱部品16を冷却し、サブケース19の前面壁19aの開口を通過して第1の排気通路32に流れる。サブケース19の前面壁19aの開口には、サブケース19における冷却風Cの流れ方向に対して斜行した複数の流路案内板31a,31bが所定間隔を有して設けられている。このため、サブケース19の前面壁19aの開口から排気された冷却風Cはスムーズに第1の排気流路32の流路方向(図4の左向き方向)に流れていく。また、第1の排気流路32の流路方向を流れた冷却風Cは、流路案内板31cにより屈曲部分で淀むことなくスムーズに第2の排気流路34を流れる。
以下、本発明に係る実施の形態3の誘導加熱調理器について添付の図面を参照して説明する。図5は、本発明に係る実施の形態3の誘導加熱調理器の内部構成を示す水平断面図である。なお、実施の形態3の誘導加熱調理器において、前述の実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1と基本構成は同じであるため、異なる点を中心に説明する。以下の実施の形態3の説明においては、実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1における構成要素と同じ機能、構成を有するものには同じ符号を付し、その詳細な説明は省略して実施の形態1の説明を適用する。
実施の形態3の誘導加熱調理器においては、送風装置17からの冷却風Cがダクト18に案内されて、制御回路15の発熱部品16を冷却し、サブケース19の前面壁19aの複数の開口を通過して、第1の排気通路32および第2の排気流路34を流れていく。
以下、本発明に係る実施の形態4の誘導加熱調理器について添付の図面を参照して説明する。図6は、本発明に係る実施の形態4の誘導加熱調理器の内部構成を示す水平断面図である。なお、実施の形態4の誘導加熱調理器において、前述の実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1と基本構成は同じであるため、異なる点を中心に説明する。以下の実施の形態4の説明においては、実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1における構成要素と同じ機能、構成を有するものには同じ符号を付し、その詳細な説明は省略して実施の形態1の説明を適用する。
実施の形態4の誘導加熱調理器においては、略中央の背面側に設けられた送風装置17からの冷却風Cがダクト18に案内されて、制御回路15の各発熱部品16を冷却し、サブケース19の前面壁19aの開口を通過して第1の排気通路32に流れる。
以下、本発明に係る実施の形態5の誘導加熱調理器について添付の図面を参照して説明する。図7は、本発明に係る実施の形態5の誘導加熱調理器をキッチンキャビネットに設置した状態の要部断面図である。なお、実施の形態5の誘導加熱調理器において、前述の実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1と基本構成は同じであるため、異なる点を中心に説明する。以下の実施の形態5の説明においては、実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1における構成要素と同じ機能、構成を有するものには同じ符号を付し、その詳細な説明は省略して実施の形態1の説明を適用する。
実施の形態5の誘導加熱調理器において、サブケース19の内部から第1の排気流路32に至る冷却風Cの流れに関しては、実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器における動作と同じである。
一方、キッチンキャビネット2における手前側には換気口が設けられておらず、キッチンキャビネット2の背面側にのみ第1の換気口41が形成されて、キッチンキャビネット2の内部と外部との換気を行うよう構成されたキッチンキャビネット2の仕様では、遮蔽板により通気口43を塞ぐことにより対応できる。遮蔽板により通気口43を塞ぐことにより、すべての冷却風Cは背面壁22dに設けられた排気口21から排出され、後方への流れ方向が明確な排気となる。したがって、当該誘導加熱調理器は、排気された冷却風Cが吸気口20から再吸引されることを低減した吸気-排気構成となる。
また、通気口43の開口面積や開口位置を調節できるように、遮蔽板を複数の異なる位置に固定できるように構成してもよい。このように通気口43の開口面積や開口位置を調節できるように構成することにより、設置できるキッチンキャビネットに対する汎用性をさらに向上させることができる。
以下、本発明に係る実施の形態6の誘導加熱調理器について添付の図面を参照して説明する。図8は本発明に係る実施の形態6の誘導加熱調理器の全体を示す斜視図である。図9は本発明に係る実施の形態6の誘導加熱調理器の内部構成を示す水平断面図である。なお、実施の形態6の誘導加熱調理器においては、4つの加熱領域を有する構成であるが、前述の図6に示した実施の形態4の誘導加熱調理器と基本構成は同じである。以下の実施の形態6の説明においては、実施の形態1および実施の形態4の誘導加熱調理器における構成要素と同じ機能、構成を有するものには同じ符号を付し、その詳細な説明は省略して実施の形態1および実施の形態4の説明を適用する。
実施の形態6の誘導加熱調理器においては、略中央に背面側に設けられた送風装置17からの冷却風Cがダクト18に案内されて、制御回路15a,15bの各発熱部品16を冷却し、サブケース19の前面壁19aの開口を通過して第1の排気通路32に流れる。
以下、本発明に係る実施の形態7の誘導加熱調理器について添付の図面を参照して説明する。図10は本発明に係る実施の形態7の誘導加熱調理器の内部構成を示す水平断面図である。なお、実施の形態7の誘導加熱調理器は、前述の図8に示した実施の形態6のように、4つの加熱領域12a,12b,12c,12dを有する構成である。また、実施の形態7の誘導加熱調理器は、前述の実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1(図3参照)におけるサブケース19を2組並設した構成である。各サブケース19A,19Bの内部構成は、実施の形態1の誘導加熱調理器1におけるサブケース19と同じである。以下の実施の形態7の説明においては、実施の形態1および実施の形態6の誘導加熱調理器における構成要素と同じ機能、構成を有するものには同じ符号を付し、その詳細な説明は省略して実施の形態1および実施の形態6の説明を適用する。
第1の誘導加熱ブロック33aにおいて、送風装置17aにより吸気口20aから吸い込まれた冷却風Cは、制御回路15aを冷却するために、送風装置17aから手前側の方向に吹き出される。送風装置17aから手前側の方向に吹き出された冷却風Cは、ダクト18aにより案内されて制御回路15aの各々の発熱部品16を冷却する。各発熱部品16を冷却した冷却風Cは、そのまま手前側の方向に向かって流れて、第1のサブケース19Aの前面壁19aの通気口を通り、前面排気流路である第1の排気流路320へと至る。
