In the example of FIG. 10, the case where the current change amount is “large” and the case of “small” are shown, but the present invention is not limited to these two cases, and in three or more stages. You may judge.
  • the control unit 45 switches the amplification unit that amplifies the input current among the amplification units 48a and 48b according to the determination result of the current change amount. That is, when it is determined that the amount of change in current is small, the input current is amplified by the amplification unit 48b having a high amplification factor among the amplification units 48a and 48b (broken line in FIG. 9D). This increases the amount of change per unit time of the input current. When it is determined that the amount of current change is large, the input current is amplified by the amplifier 48a having a low amplification factor among the amplifiers 48a and 48b (solid line in FIG. 9D). It should be noted that the selection of the amplifying unit to be used is preferably immediately after the start of the control in the water heating mode 2.

For this reason, it is possible to accurately detect the completion of boiling of water regardless of the amount of current change during induction heating of the article 5 to be heated, and it is possible to obtain a highly reliable induction heating cooker. In addition, a user-friendly induction heating cooker can be obtained.
  • the controller 45 determines that the kettle has been completed, the fixed driving frequency is released, the driving frequency of the inverter circuit 23 is increased, the input current is decreased, and the high-frequency power supplied to the heating coil 11a. You may make it reduce (thermal power). In the case of boiling water (boiling water), even if the heating power is increased more than necessary, the water temperature does not become 100 ° C. or higher, so that the water temperature can be maintained even if the driving frequency is increased to lower the heating power. Thus, when the amount of change per predetermined time of the input current correction value is equal to or less than the predetermined value, the drive of the inverter circuit 23 is controlled to reduce the high frequency power supplied to the heating coil 11a.
