本发明涉及冰箱和烹调方法。
背景技术
一直以来提供一种冰箱，其具备真空泵和内部由真空泵减压的密闭容器(密闭隔间)，提高收纳于密闭容器的食材的保存性(例如专利文献1)。此外，一直以来还提供一种密闭容器(真空罐)，例如通过安装于盖或容器主体的减压阀而使内部为真空状态(比大气压低的状态)。通过在冰箱内收纳预先收纳食材且内部减压的状态的真空罐，能够提高食材的保存性。

发明内容
在此，专利文献1所公开的冰箱具备：储藏室，其具备具有密闭结构的真空容器；冷却单元，其冷却储藏室或真空容器；压力变动装置，该压力变动装置具备减压单元，其使真空容器内的压力可变；大气压导入单元，其向真空容器内导入大气压；以及控制装置，该控制装置在将由收纳于真空容器内部的小片的集合体构成的食品冷却至规定的冻结温度的过程中的至少一部分过程中，通过所述压力变动单元使与食品接触的气体空间的压力变动。根据该结构，能够在减压的状态下通过大气压导入单元将大气压导入或加压，对食品施加风压，对食品进行玫瑰状冻结。
但是，考虑对食材的压力变动处理即使是对与专利文献1所示那样的小片的集合体(例如肉末和米饭等)不同形态的食材也有效。特别是涉及浸渍于调味料的食材，设想通过实施压力变动处理，提高调味料向食材内的浸透效率。而且，关于浸渍于调味料的食材，设想重复压力变动处理(减压与大气开放(气密状态的解除))，能够进一步促进调味料向食材内的浸透。
然而，专利文献1的发明仅以由小片的集合体构成的食材为对象，而未设想应用于其他形态的食材。因此，专利文献1中既没有公开也没有启示重复对收纳浸渍于调味料的食材的真空容器(密闭容器)内减压与解除气密状态，可以实现调味料 向食材内的浸透的促进。
鉴于前述的课题，本发明的目的在于，提供冰箱和烹调方法，其提高密闭容器中收纳的食材的保存性，并且重复减压与解除气密状态，由此促进调味料向食材内的浸透。
为了解决所述课题，本发明的冰箱的特征在于，具备：密闭容器，其包括调味料和浸渍于调味料的食材，配置在冷蔵室内；真空泵，其对密闭容器内的压力进行减压；气密状态解除单元，其解除密闭容器的气密状态；以及控制单元，其至少控制真空泵和气密状态解除单元的动作，在判定为密闭容器内的压力减到阈值以下的情况下，控制单元执行第一处理和第二处理，该第一处理停止真空泵的减压动作，第二处理驱动气密状态解除单元解除密闭容器的气密状态，在第一处理和第二处理的组合的重复次数低于设定值的情况下，控制单元驱动真空泵再次执行第一处理和第二处理，以促进调味料向食材内的浸透。
此外，在本发明的冰箱中，其特征在于，在判定为在经过了规定时间的时刻，密闭容器内的压力未减到阈值以下的情况下，控制单元进一步执行停止真空泵的减压动作的第三处理。
此外，本发明的烹调方法的特征在于，使用一种冰箱，该冰箱具备：密闭容器，其包括调味料和浸渍于调味料的食材，配置在冷蔵室内；真空泵，其对密闭容器内的压力进行减压；气密状态解除单元，其解除密闭容器的气密状态；以及控制单元，其至少控制真空泵和气密状态解除单元的动作，在判定为密闭容器内的压力减到阈值以下的情况下，控制单元执行第一处理和第二处理，该第一处理停止真空泵的减压动作，第二处理驱动气密状态解除单元解除密闭容器的气密状态，在第一处理和第二处理的组合的重复次数低于设定值的情况下，控制单元驱动真空泵再次执行第一处理和第二处理，以促进调味料向食材内的浸透。
根据本发明，能够在冷蔵室的冷蔵环境下对密闭容器内进行减压。其结果是能够提高密闭容器中收纳的食材的保存性。此外，若密闭容器内的压力减到阈值以下，则真空泵的减压动作停止(第一处理)，解除密闭容器的气密状态(第二处理)。进而，在第一处理和第二处理的组合的重复次数低于设定值的情况下，真空泵被驱动，再次执行第一处理和第二处理。其结果是，能够重复密闭容器的减压与气密状态的解除，促进调味料向食材内的浸透。
此外，根据本发明，在经过了规定时间的时刻，密闭容器内的压力未减到阈值以下的情况下，真空泵的减压动作停止。因此，在密闭容器的减压工序中，能够早 早地检测真空泵或密闭容器的不良状况。其结果是，尽管不能将密闭容器减压到阈值压力，也能够防止真空泵不必要地动作。此外，由于能够早早地停止真空泵的动作，能够防止真空泵的进一步损伤或对冰箱中的其他部件或设备的恶劣影响。
此外，根据本发明，因真空泵的动作，密闭容器内被减压。其结果是能够提高密闭容器中收纳的食材的保存性。此外，若密闭容器内的压力减到阈值以下，则真空泵的减压动作停止(第一处理)，解除密闭容器的气密状态(第二处理)。进而，在第一处理和第二处理的组合的重复次数低于设定值的情况下，真空泵被驱动，再次执行第一处理与第二处理的组合。其结果是，能够重复密闭容器的减压与气密状态的解除，促进调味料向食材内的浸透。

具体实施方式
以下，参照附图，详细地说明本发明的一个实施方式的冰箱1。另外，每当说明本实施方式的冰箱1，“上下”方向对应于冰箱1的高度方向，“左右”方向对应于冰箱1的宽度方向，“前后”方向对应于冰箱1的进深方向。
[结构]
首先，关于本实施方式的冰箱1的整体结构，参照图1进行说明。在此，图1是冰箱1的侧视垂直截面图。如图1所示，本实施方式的冰箱1具备相当于冰箱主体的隔热箱体2。隔热箱体2具备钢板制的外壳2a、合成树脂制的内壳2b、以及填充在形成于外壳与内壳之间的间隙内的发泡聚氨酯(聚氨酯泡沫)制的隔热材料2c。
此外，隔热箱体2具备多个储藏室3、4、5。各储藏室由隔热分隔壁6a、6b分隔。本实施方式中多个储藏室从上到下依次对应于冷蔵室3、蔬菜室4、冷冻室5。但是，各储藏室的配置顺序不限于此(例如可以从上到下依次配置冷蔵室、冷冻室、蔬菜室)。
设置于隔热箱体2的各储藏室的前表面开口。以能够开闭地堵塞各开口的方式设置有隔热门。在此，例如从冰箱的正面看，覆盖冷蔵室3的开口的隔热门的右端的上下端部能够转动地支承于隔热箱体2，以堵塞冷蔵室3的前表面开口。此外，覆盖蔬菜室4的开口的隔热门相对于隔热箱体2配置成能够沿前后方向拉出，覆盖蔬菜室4的前表面开口。同样地，覆盖冷冻室5的开口的隔热门相对于隔热箱体2配置成能够沿前后方向拉出，覆盖冷冻室5的前表面开口。
接着，参照图2至图5来说明收纳于冷蔵室3的密闭容器10和真空泵20。在此，图2是收纳密闭容器10和真空泵20的冷蔵室3的局部立体图。此外，图3是冷蔵室3中收纳的密闭容器10和真空泵20的俯视截面图(将图1所示的冷蔵室3沿A-A’线剖切而成的图)。而且，图4是图3所示的密闭容器10和真空泵20的B-B’截面图。而且，图5是图3所示的密闭容器10和真空泵20的C-C’截面图。
如图2和图3所示，本实施方式中的密闭容器10和真空泵20设置于冷蔵室3的底壁31侧。此外，在冷蔵室3的前侧配置有密闭容器10。虽没有特别限定，密闭容器10以能够拆装的状态载置于导肋32，该导肋32从冷蔵室3的底壁31朝向上方突出设置。
通过导肋32，密闭容器10被引导至规定的设置位置。因此，能够可靠地设置密闭容器10，能够简便地连接密闭容器10与真空泵20，以使得从密闭容器10排出的空气没有泄露。
即，密闭容器10以能够从冷蔵室3出入(能够拆装)的状态收纳。通过将密闭容器10设为从冷蔵室3可进可出，预先在冰箱1的外侧将食材收纳于密闭容器10后，能够将该密闭容器10收纳于冷蔵室3。由此，能够将食材简便地收纳于密闭容器10。
本实施方式中的食材在浸渍于调味料的状态下收纳于密闭容器10。食材的例子举出牛肉、猪肉、鸡肉等畜肉类、海鲜类、蔬菜类等。此外，调味料的例子举出含有盐、糖、酸化剂、香辛料、淀粉类原料、鲜味原料等的液状调味料、味增等糊状调味料等。但是，不限于此。
相对于此，在密闭容器10的后方侧配置有真空泵20。本实施方式中的真空泵 20收纳于壳体21。但是，真空泵20的位置只要能在密闭容器10内进行减压，则不限于此。此外，真空泵20也可以设置于冰箱1中的冷蔵室3以外的位置。
此外，在被密闭容器10与真空泵20夹着的区域设置有密闭容器检测传感器33，该密闭容器检测传感器33检测密闭容器10收纳到冷蔵室3内的规定位置。密闭容器检测传感器33的形态只要能够检测密闭容器10收纳到规定位置，则没有特别限定。作为密闭容器检测传感器33的示例，除了根据与密闭容器10的接触而输出检测信号的微动开关之外，还可举出磁传感器、光传感器等。
接着，如图4(a)所示，本实施方式中的密闭容器10具备：收纳食材的中空的容器主体11；覆盖容器主体11上部的开口部的中盖12；以及载置于中盖12的上盖13(存在将中盖12与上盖13合称为“盖部”的情况)。但是，盖部的形态不限于中盖12与上盖13为分体部件的盖部，它们也可以为一体。此外，也可以是除此以外的形态。
在容器主体11内收纳有浸渍于调味料的食材。此外，在中盖12形成有与容器主体11内连通的第一贯通孔121。而且，中盖12具备能够堵塞中盖12的第一贯通孔121的第一阀122。本实施方式中的第一阀122是平板状的部件(例如橡胶制的止回阀)，但只要能够堵塞第一贯通孔121则不限于此。
此外，上盖13具备包括面对第一贯通孔121和第一阀122的一端1311的第一连通路131。而且，第一连通路131包括与上盖13外(盖部外)连通且面对真空泵20(壳体21内)的另一端1312。
另外，没有特别限定，第一连通路131的另一端1312与真空泵20的进气口22也可以经由管路24连接。本实施方式中的管路24是能够弯曲的树脂制管。但是，不限于此。此外，也可以在密闭容器10与壳体20之间配置密封部25。通过密封部25，可靠地防止了空气从从第一连通路131至管路24的流路泄露。
在开始真空泵20中的减压动作(进气)前，第一阀122堵塞第一贯通孔121(图4(b))。相对于此，若真空泵20中的减压动作(进气)开始，则从真空泵20的进气口22吸入周围的空气。伴随于此，与壳体21连通的第一连通路131内减压，第一阀122分离(图4(c))。其结果是，第一贯通孔121打开，容器主体11内与第一连通路131连通。接着，通过真空泵20动作，容器主体11(密闭容器10)内减压。
此外，本实施方式优选为具备压力传感器(图6的24所示)。若通过压力传感器检测到容器主体11(密闭容器10)内的压力成为规定的阈值以下(例如0.5气压 以下)，则真空泵20的减压动作停止。其结果是，第一阀122朝向第一贯通孔121移动(因容器内外的压差，落下到第一贯通孔121)，第一贯通孔121被堵塞。
由此，容器主体11内维持减压后的压力。另外，压力传感器的形态没有特别限定，但作为例子，举出测量真空泵20的马达驱动电流的电流传感器(更详细而言，电流传感器中检测到的电流值的信号被发送到后述的控制单元40，在控制单元40中，将收到的电流值换算成减压后的压力值)。
接着，如图5(a)所示，在中盖12的与第一贯通孔121不同的位置设置有第二贯通孔123。此外，中盖12具备能够堵塞第二贯通孔123的第二阀124。在密闭容器10内被减压的情况下，对嵌入第二贯通孔123的第二阀124施加向密闭容器10的内侧拉入的力。由此，第二阀124在嵌入第二贯通孔123的状态下固定。另外，本实施方式中的第二阀124是球状的部件，但只要能够堵塞第二贯通孔123，则不限于此。
此外，上盖13具备包括面对第二贯通孔123和第二阀124的一端1321的第二连通路132。而且，第二连通路132包括与上盖13外(盖部外)连通的另一端1322。本实施方式的情况下，另一端1322与真空泵20的壳体21内连通。
而且，在壳体21内配置有齿轮齿条机构(齿条51和小齿轮52)。此外，在齿条51的前端安装有能够推动第二阀124的长针状的作用部53。作用部53插入第二连通路132，通过齿轮齿条机构而能够进退。
更详细而言，伴随着小齿轮52的旋转，齿条51向前侧滑动移动。据此，位于图5(b)的位置的作用部53前进(进入图的右侧)。由此，第二阀124由作用部53推动(图5(c))。其结果是，第二阀124与从第二贯通孔123脱落的方式移动，从而打开第二贯通孔123。
另一方面，在使作用部53后退的情况下(向图的左侧退的情况下)，使小齿轮52逆旋转。其结果是，齿条51向后侧滑动移动，作用部53后退。由此，第二阀124返回到被作用部53推动前的位置，从而堵塞第二贯通孔123。另外，只要能够使作用部53进退地动作，也可以具备齿轮齿条机构以外的机构。以下存在将使作用部53进退的机构称为“作用部进退机构”的情况。
通过该一连串动作，容器主体11(密闭容器10)的气密状态被解除。以下，存在将具备作用部进退机构(齿条51、小齿轮52)、作用部53的机构称为气密状态解除单元50的情况。另外，作为小齿轮52的驱动源的例子，举出马达(例如步进马达)、螺线管等电动致动器。但是，不限于此。
利用气密状态解除单元50解除密闭容器10的气密状态的动作在冷蔵室3的内部进行。因此，能够不将密闭容器10内的食材或调味料的气味向冰箱1的外侧泄露地解除密闭容器10的气密状态。
[控制]
接着，参照图6至图10，说明本实施方式中的真空泵20和气密状态解除单元50的控制方式。在此，图6是用于说明本实施方式具备的控制单元40的框图。此外，图7和图8是示出烹调模式(重复进行对密闭容器10的减压和气密状态的解除的模式)下执行的处理流程的流程图。而且，图9是控制单元40的存储部中构建的数据表的一例。而且，图10是示出正常模式(继续进行对密闭容器10的减压的模式)下执行的处理流程的流程图。
本实施方式中的控制单元40具备运算部(例如CPU等处理器)、存储部(例如ROM或RAM等存储器)、通信接口部等。控制单元40的运算部根据从压力传感器24、密闭容器检测传感器33、显示部60(例如设置于冰箱1的隔热门表面的触摸面板)等输入的各种信号，基于存储部中存储的程序、数据进行规定的运算。进而，运算部将由运算结果生成的控制信号输出到真空泵20、气密状态解除单元50、通知单元70(显示部60或LED等点亮部、语音发送部)、警报单元80(LED等点亮部、语音发送部)等。
接着，参照图7和图8，说明烹调模式下执行的处理流程。首先，在设置于冷蔵室3的隔热门表面的显示部60显示使用者能够选择的操作模式。在此，显示于显示部60的操作模式包括烹调模式和正常模式。当然，显示的操作模式也可以是除此以外的。
如图7所示，在通过使用者的操作选择烹调模式的情况下(S701)，烹调名一览表显示于显示部60。例如，烹调名α显示轻微腌制、烹调名β显示腌制、烹调名γ显示炸鸡的调味处理…等一□。此外，通过使用者的操作，根据显示的烹调名一览表选择期望的烹调名(显示部60中的烹调名的显示区域被触摸)。伴随于此，选择的烹调名的信息发送到控制单元40(S702)。
在此，在控制单元40的存储部中存储有能够选择的各烹调名和相应的重复次数(重复减压与气密状态的解除的组合的次数)(参照图9)。在此，接收到由使用者选择的烹调名的信息的控制单元40，参照存储部，确定对应的重复次数(例如如S703至S706所示，在烹调名为α(轻微腌制)的情况下，重复次数被确定为A次。此外，在烹调名为β(腌制)的情况下，重复次数被确定为B回次)。
接着，若收纳有浸渍于调味料的食材的密闭容器10由使用者设置于冷蔵室3的规定位置，则密闭容器10的检测信号从密闭容器检测传感器33发送到控制单元40(S707)。如图8所示，接收到密闭容器10的检测信号的控制单元40驱动真空泵20，以开始密闭容器10的减压动作(S708)。
接着，控制单元40根据来自压力传感器24的信号，判定密闭容器10内的压力是否减到规定的阈值以下。在判定为密闭容器10内的压力减到规定的阈值以下的情况下(S709的YES)，控制单元40控制真空泵20，停止减压动作(S710)。另外，以下将该处理(停止真空泵20的减压动作的处理)称为“第一处理”。
接着，控制单元40驱动气密状态解除单元50，以解除密闭容器10的气密状态(S711)。另外，以下将该处理(驱动气密状态解除单元50以解除密闭容器10的气密状态的处理)称为“第二处理”。本实施方式的第二处理与控制单元40驱动小齿轮52的驱动源(步进马达或螺线管等)的处理对应。伴随着驱动源的动作，小齿轮52、齿条51工作，作用部53前进。其结果是，作用部53推动第二阀124，第二贯通孔123打开。由此，密闭容器10的气密状态被解除。
接着，控制单元40对第一处理与第二处理的组合的重复次数(减压与气密状态解除的组合的重复次数)进行计数，将计取的重复次数与预先确定的重复次数进行比较。比较的结果是，在计取的重复次数低于预先确定的重复次数(设定值)的情况下(S712的YES)，控制单元40再次进行包括第一处理和第二处理的S707至S712的处理(步骤)。
该重复处理进行至计数的第一处理与第二处理的组合的重复次数达到预先确定的重复次数。例如，在选择α作为烹调名的情况、在重复次数达到A次的情况下，重复处理结束(S712的NO)。
这样，重复密闭容器的减压与气密状态的解除的结果是能够促进调味料向食材内的浸透。最后，控制单元40也可以使重复处理结束(烹调结束)的通知显示于通知单元70(例如显示部60)(S713)。由此，使用者能够确认烹调模式的结束。
对此，在S709的步骤中判定为NO(控制单元40判定为密闭容器10内的压力未减到规定的阈值以下)，进一步，在判定为在经过了规定时间(例如约3分钟)的时刻密闭容器10内的压力未减压到阈值以下的情况下(S714的YES)，控制单元40停止真空泵20的减压动作(S715)。另外，以下将该处理(判定为在经过了规定时间的时刻密闭容器10内的压力未减到阈值以下，停止真空泵的减压动作的处理)称为“第三处理”。
由此，能够早早地检测减压工序中的真空泵20、密闭容器10的不良状况。其结果是，尽管不能将密闭容器10减压到阈值压力以下，也能够防止真空泵20不必要地动作。此外，由于能够早早地停止真空泵20的动作，能够防止真空泵20的进一步损伤或对冰箱1中的其他部件或设备的恶劣影响。
此外，控制单元40也可以将减压工序中发生了不良状况的信号发送到警报单元80(S716)。由此，使用者能够确认在减压工序中发生了不良状况。另一发面，在未达到规定时间的情况下(S714的NO)，控制单元40再次判定密闭容器10内的压力是否减到阈值以下。
接着，参照图10，说明正常模式下执行的处理流程。首先，在设置于冷蔵室3的隔热门表面的显示部60显示使用者能够选择的操作模式。此时，通过使用者的操作选择正常模式(S901)。
接着，若收纳有食材的密闭容器10由使用者设置于冷蔵室3的规定位置，则密闭容器10的检测信号从密闭容器检测传感器33发送到控制单元40(S902)。接收到密闭容器10的检测信号的控制单元40驱动真空泵20，以开始密闭容器10的减压动作(S903)。
接着，控制单元40根据来自压力传感器24的信号，判定密闭容器10内的压力是否减到规定的阈值以下。在判定为密闭容器10内的压力减到规定的阈值以下的情况下(S904的YES)，控制单元40控制真空泵20停止减压动作(S905)。在该状态下，密闭容器10在冷蔵室3中的冷蔵环境下储藏。同时，控制单元40也可以使真空抽吸工序结束的通知显示于通知单元70(例如显示部60)(S906)。由此，使用者能够确认正常模式的结束。
对此，在S904的步骤中判定为NO(控制单元40判定为密闭容器10内的压力未减到规定的阈值以下)，进而，在判定为在经过了规定时间的时刻密闭容器10内的压力未减到阈值以下的情况下(S907的YES)，控制单元40停止真空泵20的减压动作(S908)。
此时，控制单元40也可以将减压工序中发生了不良状况的信号发动到警报单元80(S909)。另一发面，在未达到规定时间的情况下(S907的NO)，控制单元40再次判定密闭容器10内的压力是否减到阈值以下。
以上详细说明了本发明的实施方式。但是，前述的说明用于容易理解本发明，并非按限定本发明的主旨记载。本发明中可以包括不脱离其主旨地进行变更、改良的内容。此外，本发明中包括其等效物。
