しかしながら、赤外線センサー及びセンサー回路基板を直接筐体に収納するようにしたものにあっては、赤外線センサーの筐体上面からの突出量が大きく、そのため汚れやすく、汚れにより測定精度が低下してしまうという難点があった。
さらに、筐体内への機器の組込段階でなければ赤外線センサー及びセンサー回路基板の取付ができず、また筐体を分解しなければメンテナンスが行えない等、信頼性、防汚性、組立性、メンテナンス性に課題を残している。
However, in the case where the infrared sensor and the sensor circuit board are directly housed in the casing, the protruding amount of the infrared sensor from the upper surface of the casing is large, so that it is easily contaminated, and the measurement accuracy is reduced due to the dirt. There was a difficulty.
In addition, the infrared sensor and sensor circuit board cannot be attached unless the equipment is installed in the housing, and maintenance cannot be performed unless the housing is disassembled. There remains a problem in maintainability.

Embodiment 1 FIG.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the appearance of an induction heating cooker according to Embodiment 1 of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a state in which the top plate is removed and the ventilation grill is disassembled, and FIG. FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of the sensor case, FIG. 5 is a rear view of the front part of the sensor case showing the holding state of the infrared sensor and the sensor circuit board, and FIG. 6 is the sensor case mounting hole. It is side surface sectional drawing of a part.

本実施の形態の誘導加熱調理器は、図1乃至図6のように筐体1の上面における背面側の2ヶ所に通風口グリル2a,2bと一体化されて通風性を有し、吸気または排気を行う通気口の少なくとも一部を覆うカバー部材3a,3bがそれぞれ設けられている。これらカバー部材3a,3bには、赤外線センサーが受光するための窓部が設けられ、窓部に赤外線透過部材5a,5bがそれぞれ取り付けられていて、トッププレート30に載置される被加熱物から放射される赤外線が入射可能となっている。また、トッププレート30の下側には、前面側に左右とそれらの中間部の後方位置に、それぞれ誘導加熱コイル8a,8b,8cが設けられているとともに、左右後方の空いてるスペースに、赤外線センサー4による検出結果や図示しないサーミスタによる温度検知の結果に基づき誘導加熱コイル8a,8b,8cを駆動する制御回路の基板(以下、「制御基板という」)9a,9bが配置されている。   As shown in FIGS. 1 to 6, the induction heating cooker of the present embodiment is integrated with the ventilation grilles 2a and 2b at two locations on the back side of the upper surface of the housing 1, and has ventilation characteristics. Cover members 3a and 3b are provided to cover at least part of the vent holes for exhausting air. These cover members 3a and 3b are provided with windows for receiving light by the infrared sensor, and infrared transmission members 5a and 5b are attached to the windows, respectively, from the object to be heated placed on the top plate 30. The emitted infrared light can be incident. In addition, on the lower side of the top plate 30, induction heating coils 8a, 8b, and 8c are provided on the front side on the left side and on the rear side of the middle portion thereof, respectively, and infrared rays are provided in the left and right rear spaces. Control circuit boards (hereinafter referred to as “control boards”) 9a, 9b for driving the induction heating coils 8a, 8b, 8c are arranged based on the detection result by the sensor 4 and the temperature detection result by a thermistor (not shown).

筐体上面の背面側には、中央に排気口6、その両側に吸気口7a,7bがそれぞれ設けられている。但し、これら排気口6及び吸気口7a,7bでなる通風口の配置は一例でありこれに限るものでなく、例えば筐体前面部に吸気口を設け、筐体背面側の上面に排気口を設けるレイアウトであってもよい。   On the back side of the upper surface of the housing, an exhaust port 6 is provided in the center, and intake ports 7a and 7b are provided on both sides thereof. However, the arrangement of the ventilation ports including the exhaust ports 6 and the intake ports 7a and 7b is merely an example, and is not limited thereto. For example, an intake port is provided on the front surface of the housing, and the exhaust port is provided on the upper surface on the rear surface side of the housing. A layout may be provided.

また、吸気口7a,7bと同じ筐体上面の開口の一端には、図3のように吸気ダクトで仕切られたセンサーケース取付穴(吸気口7b側のみ示す)7cが設けられ、センサーケース取付穴7cにセンサーケース11Aが取り付けられ、センサーケース11Aがカバー部材3bに収容されて外部衝撃等より保護されるようになっている。なお、センサーケース取付穴7cは、必ずしも吸気口7a,7bにおける吸気ダクトで仕切られた部位とする必要はなく、筐体上面における排気口6及び吸気口7a,7bでなる通風口の開口であればどこでもよいものである。また、左右のセンサーケースは、設置角度を除けば同一構成であるため、これ以降、後述の他の実施の形態も含め、一方(右側配置)のセンサーケース11Aについてのみ説明する。   Also, a sensor case mounting hole (shown only on the side of the intake port 7b) 7c partitioned by an intake duct as shown in FIG. 3 is provided at one end of the opening on the upper surface of the same casing as the intake ports 7a and 7b. A sensor case 11A is attached to the hole 7c, and the sensor case 11A is accommodated in the cover member 3b so as to be protected from an external impact or the like. The sensor case mounting hole 7c does not necessarily have to be a portion partitioned by the intake duct in the intake ports 7a and 7b, and may be an opening of the ventilation port including the exhaust port 6 and the intake ports 7a and 7b on the upper surface of the housing. It is good anywhere. Since the left and right sensor cases have the same configuration except for the installation angle, only the one (right side arrangement) sensor case 11A will be described below, including other embodiments described later.

この右側配置のセンサーケース11A内の赤外線センサー4は、センサー回路基板10に直接搭載されており、ここでは前面側の一方(右側)の誘導加熱コイル8bが加熱する被加熱物からの赤外線を検知して温度を測定している。なお、赤外線センサーとしては、センサー素子とセンサーカバーを一体に、単独の製品として作成し、これを基板上に取り付けるタイプのものと、センサー素子を基板上に実装し、この上にセンサーカバーを取り付けるタイプのものとが有る。   The infrared sensor 4 in the sensor case 11A arranged on the right side is directly mounted on the sensor circuit board 10, and here detects infrared rays from an object to be heated which is heated by one induction heating coil 8b on the front side (right side). And measure the temperature. In addition, as an infrared sensor, a sensor element and a sensor cover are integrally formed as a single product, and the sensor element is mounted on the board, and the sensor element is mounted on the board, and the sensor cover is mounted thereon. There are types.

通常、右側配置のセンサーケース11A内の赤外線センサー4が受光する水平方向の光軸の中心は、右側の誘導加熱コイル8bの中心に向けられ、左側配置のセンサーケース11A内の赤外線センサー4が受光する水平方向の光軸の中心は、左側の誘導加熱コイル8aの中心に向けられ、各誘導加熱コイルの被加熱物と赤外線センサーは1対1となっている(本実施形態においては、中央の誘導加熱コイル8cの被加熱物温度を検知する赤外線センサーは具備されていない)。
複数の異なる製品(機種)においては、(右)誘導加熱コイルの水平方向の配置位置が異なることがある。このため、(右)センサーケース11Aの位置・取付角度を一定に固定した条件において、複数の製品の(右)誘導加熱コイルの水平方向の配置の中心を結ぶ線の中心に赤外線センサー4の水平方向の光軸が向くように赤外線センサー4を(右)センサーケース11A内に取り付けることにより、複数の異なる製品(機種)において(右)センサーケース11Aを共用化している。
このように、複数の異なる製品(機種)の誘導加熱調理器でセンサーケース11Aを共用することで標準化され、製品コストを低くすることができる。
Normally, the center of the horizontal optical axis received by the infrared sensor 4 in the right-side sensor case 11A is directed to the center of the right induction heating coil 8b, and the infrared sensor 4 in the left-side sensor case 11A receives light. The center of the horizontal optical axis is directed to the center of the left induction heating coil 8a, and the object to be heated and the infrared sensor of each induction heating coil are in a one-to-one relationship (in this embodiment, the center An infrared sensor for detecting the temperature of the object to be heated of the induction heating coil 8c is not provided).
In a plurality of different products (models), (right) the horizontal arrangement position of the induction heating coil may be different. For this reason, (right) under the condition that the position and mounting angle of the sensor case 11A are fixed, the horizontal direction of the infrared sensor 4 is centered on the line connecting the centers of the horizontal arrangement of the (right) induction heating coils of a plurality of products. By mounting the infrared sensor 4 in the (right) sensor case 11A so that the optical axis in the direction is directed, the (right) sensor case 11A is shared by a plurality of different products (models).
Thus, it is standardized by sharing the sensor case 11A in the induction heating cookers of a plurality of different products (models), and the product cost can be reduced.

センサーケース11A及びその締結部材であるねじ12は、図3及び図6のように筐体1の上面より着脱できるようになっている。つまり、センサーケース11Aは、締結部を境に、一部(上部)が筐体上面から突出し、一部(下部)が筐体内(センサーケース取付穴内)に納まるよう筐体上面に取り付けられる。なお、制御基板9a,9bの制御基板接続ケーブル13(一方のみ図示)は、筐体内から引き出せる長さであり、筐体外でコネクタ部14(一方のみ図示)の着脱作業が可能な長さとなっている。   The sensor case 11A and the screw 12 serving as a fastening member thereof can be attached and detached from the upper surface of the housing 1 as shown in FIGS. That is, the sensor case 11A is attached to the upper surface of the housing so that a part (upper part) protrudes from the upper surface of the housing and a part (lower portion) of the sensor case 11A fits in the housing (inside the sensor case mounting hole). Note that the control board connection cable 13 (only one is shown) of the control boards 9a and 9b has a length that can be pulled out from the inside of the casing, and a length that allows the connector portion 14 (only one shown) to be attached and detached outside the casing. Yes.

センサーケース11Aの筐体上面と接触しない部分には、図3のように水切部15が設けられており、センサーケース11Aに液体等が伝って流れるのを防止している。また、筐体上面には、センサーケース位置決め穴16が2ヶ所設けられており、センサーケースの取付け位置・方向の精度を確保している。   As shown in FIG. 3, a drainer 15 is provided at a portion of the sensor case 11 </ b> A that does not come into contact with the upper surface of the housing, thereby preventing liquid or the like from flowing through the sensor case 11 </ b> A. In addition, two sensor case positioning holes 16 are provided on the upper surface of the housing to ensure the accuracy of the mounting position and direction of the sensor case.

センサーケース11Aは、大別すると、図4のように前部品17と後部品18と上部品19の3部品で構成される。前後の部品17,18が組み合わされた後、外周面が一体的に形成されてなる上部品19が被せられることで、これらが一体化される。   The sensor case 11A is roughly divided into three parts including a front part 17, a rear part 18, and an upper part 19 as shown in FIG. After the front and rear parts 17 and 18 are combined, an upper part 19 having an outer peripheral surface formed integrally is covered, so that they are integrated.

これを更に詳述すると、センサーケース11Aの前部品17には、赤外線センサー4が受光するための矩形状の窓部17aが設けられ、窓部17aに矩形状の防水部材(第2の防水部材)21を介して矩形状の赤外線透過部材50が嵌め込まれている。赤外線透過部材50の周縁部は、図6のように上部品19の窓枠19aにて覆われ、内側に収納されるようになっている。これにより、トッププレート30に載置される被加熱物から放射される赤外線が入射可能となっている。なお、防水部材21は、ここでは前部品17の窓部17aの形状に合わせて矩形としたが、不定形の防水部材(シリコン系のシーリング剤)等でもよい。また、防水部材に接着性があると、防水性・密閉性が高まるとともに組立の作業性も高まるので、好ましい。   More specifically, the front part 17 of the sensor case 11A is provided with a rectangular window 17a for the infrared sensor 4 to receive light, and the window 17a has a rectangular waterproof member (second waterproof member). ) A rectangular infrared transmission member 50 is fitted through 21. The peripheral portion of the infrared transmitting member 50 is covered with a window frame 19a of the upper part 19 as shown in FIG. Thereby, the infrared rays radiated from the heated object placed on the top plate 30 can be incident. Here, the waterproof member 21 is rectangular according to the shape of the window portion 17a of the front part 17, but may be an indeterminate waterproof member (silicone sealing agent) or the like. In addition, it is preferable that the waterproof member has adhesiveness because the waterproofness and sealing performance are enhanced and the workability of the assembly is enhanced.

センサーケース11A内の赤外線センサー4の位置決めは、赤外線センサー4が直接搭載されているセンサー回路基板10の位置決めにより行われる。センサー回路基板10の配置角度は、図5に示す前部品17の3ヶ所の基板支持部22a,22b,22cにより基板面の角度は決まる。基板支持部のうち基板支持部22bは、センサー回路基板10を図5で見て裏面(基板能動面)を支持する部分とセンサー回路基板10の下縁を支持する部分を有するL形に形成されている。後部品18には、図4のように基板支持部の対面となる3ヶ所に基板押さえ23a,23b,23cが設けられており、前記基板支持部22a,22b,22cと協調してセンサー回路基板10を挟み込むことにより、センサー回路基板10を曲げ等の荷重をかけることなく固定することができるようになっている。   The infrared sensor 4 in the sensor case 11A is positioned by positioning the sensor circuit board 10 on which the infrared sensor 4 is directly mounted. The arrangement angle of the sensor circuit board 10 is determined by the board support portions 22a, 22b, and 22c of the three parts of the front part 17 shown in FIG. Of the substrate support portions, the substrate support portion 22b is formed in an L shape having a portion that supports the back surface (substrate active surface) when the sensor circuit substrate 10 is viewed in FIG. 5 and a portion that supports the lower edge of the sensor circuit substrate 10. ing. As shown in FIG. 4, the rear component 18 is provided with substrate holders 23a, 23b, and 23c at three positions facing the substrate support portion, and in cooperation with the substrate support portions 22a, 22b, and 22c, a sensor circuit board is provided. By sandwiching 10, the sensor circuit board 10 can be fixed without applying a load such as bending.

また、センサー回路基板10の高さ方向の位置決めは、図5のようにセンサー回路基板10に形成した基板位置決め穴24と前部品17に設けられた位置決めピン25により行われる。   The sensor circuit board 10 is positioned in the height direction by the board positioning holes 24 formed in the sensor circuit board 10 and the positioning pins 25 provided in the front part 17 as shown in FIG.

また、前部品17の底面に、図5及び図6に示すようにケーブル貫通部26が設けられ、ケーブル貫通部26をセンサー回路ケーブル27が貫通しており、このようにケーブル貫通部26の形成位置を底面とすることで、重力により液体等は下方へ流れていくことから内部に液体等が侵入するのを防止している。センサー回路ケーブル27は、言わば中継ケーブルであり、一端にセンサー回路基板コネクタ28と接続される内部接続コネクタ29を有するとともに、他端に制御基板接続ケーブル13のコネクタ部14と接続される外部接続コネクタ31を備えている。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the cable penetration part 26 is provided on the bottom surface of the front part 17, and the sensor circuit cable 27 penetrates the cable penetration part 26. Thus, the cable penetration part 26 is formed. By setting the position as the bottom surface, the liquid or the like flows downward due to gravity, so that the liquid or the like is prevented from entering the inside. The sensor circuit cable 27 is a so-called relay cable, and has an internal connection connector 29 connected to the sensor circuit board connector 28 at one end and an external connection connector connected to the connector portion 14 of the control board connection cable 13 at the other end. 31 is provided.

また、センサーケース11Aの筐体上面からの突出部は、筐体上面に形成したセンサーケース取付穴7cの周縁部の一部と上方より重畳可能に構成している。   Further, the protruding portion of the sensor case 11A from the upper surface of the housing is configured to be able to overlap with a part of the peripheral edge of the sensor case mounting hole 7c formed on the upper surface of the housing from above.

またセンサーケース11Aの前後の部品17,18に被せた上部品19と筐体上面の接合面に、図4及び図6に示すようにカバー部防水部材(第1の防水部材)32を挿入している。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, a cover waterproof member (first waterproof member) 32 is inserted into the joint surface of the upper part 19 and the upper surface of the housing that covers the parts 17 and 18 before and after the sensor case 11A. ing.

また、筐体上面におけるセンサーケース取付穴7c周辺の少なくとも一部(ここでは前後および製品端側側面)に、図3のように凸条部33,34,35を設けている。   Further, as shown in FIG. 3, protrusions 33, 34, and 35 are provided on at least a part of the upper surface of the housing around the sensor case mounting hole 7 c (here, front and rear and side surfaces on the product end side).

本実施の形態の誘導加熱調理器は、次のような作用、効果を奏する。
センサー回路基板10に赤外線センサー4を搭載し、これらを一つのセンサーケース11Aに納めているので、赤外線センサー4の出力がセンサー回路基板10に到達するまでの間のノイズ・外乱の影響が減り、測定精度・信頼性を向上させることができる。
The induction cooking device of the present embodiment has the following actions and effects.
Since the infrared sensor 4 is mounted on the sensor circuit board 10 and stored in one sensor case 11A, the influence of noise and disturbance until the output of the infrared sensor 4 reaches the sensor circuit board 10 is reduced. Measurement accuracy and reliability can be improved.

赤外線センサー4及びセンサー回路基板10の防汚性・防水性が高まるとともに、周囲温度の変化の軽減(断熱効果)により、信頼性、測定精度をより向上させることができる。   The antifouling property and waterproofness of the infrared sensor 4 and the sensor circuit board 10 are enhanced, and the reliability and measurement accuracy can be further improved by reducing the change in ambient temperature (thermal insulation effect).

センサーケース11Aは、一部(上部)が筐体上面から突出し、一部(下部)が筐体内に納まるようねじ12にて筐体上面に取り付けているので、トッププレート30との位置関係が適切に保たれ、測定精度を向上させることができるとともに、筐体上面からの突出量が少なくなって、調理作業性・意匠性を向上させることができる。   The sensor case 11A is attached to the upper surface of the casing with screws 12 so that a part (upper part) protrudes from the upper surface of the casing and a part (lower part) fits in the casing, so that the positional relationship with the top plate 30 is appropriate. Thus, the measurement accuracy can be improved, and the amount of protrusion from the upper surface of the housing can be reduced, so that the cooking workability and the design can be improved.

センサーケース11Aは、筐体上面より着脱可能としているので、組立性・メンテナンス性が向上し、製品コスト・メンテナンスコストを低くできる。   Since the sensor case 11A is detachable from the upper surface of the housing, the assemblability and maintenance are improved, and the product cost and maintenance cost can be reduced.

センサーケース11Aの筐体上面からの突出部を、筐体上面に形成したセンサーケース取付穴7cの周縁部の少なくとも一部と上方より重畳可能に構成しているので、センサーケース11Aと筐体上面の係合部ができ、センサーケース11Aの取付作業時等にこれが落下するのを防止することができる。さらに、センサーケース11Aと筐体上面が面接触するので、筐体内への液体等の侵入が抑制される。   Since the projecting portion of the sensor case 11A from the upper surface of the housing is configured to be able to overlap with at least a part of the peripheral portion of the sensor case mounting hole 7c formed on the upper surface of the housing from above, the sensor case 11A and the upper surface of the housing Thus, it is possible to prevent the sensor case 11A from dropping when the sensor case 11A is attached. Furthermore, since the sensor case 11A and the upper surface of the housing are in surface contact, the entry of liquid or the like into the housing is suppressed.

制御基板とセンサー回路基板10とを結線する制御基板接続ケーブル13を備え、図3のように制御基板接続ケーブル13間またはこの制御基板接続ケーブル13とセンサー回路基板10とを結線したまま筐体外に移動(引き回し)できるようにしているので、制御回路とセンサー回路の接続が容易となり、組立性・メンテナンス性が向上する。   A control board connection cable 13 for connecting the control board and the sensor circuit board 10 is provided, and the control board connection cable 13 is connected between the control board connection cables 13 or the control circuit board connection cable 13 and the sensor circuit board 10 as shown in FIG. Since it can be moved (routed), the connection between the control circuit and the sensor circuit becomes easy, and the assemblability and maintenance are improved.

センサー回路の接合部に中継ケーブルとなるセンサー回路ケーブル27を設け、その一端の内部接続コネクタ29をセンサー回路基板コネクタ28と接続するとともに、他端をセンサーケース11Aの前部品17の底面に設けたケーブル貫通部26を貫通させ、その末端の外部接続コネクタ31をセンサーケース11Aの外部において制御基板接続ケーブル13のコネクタ部14と接続するようにしているので、重力により液体等は下方へ流れていくことから、センサーケース11Aへの液体等の侵入が抑制され、防汚性・信頼性が向上する。   A sensor circuit cable 27 serving as a relay cable is provided at a joint portion of the sensor circuit, an internal connection connector 29 at one end thereof is connected to the sensor circuit board connector 28, and the other end is provided on the bottom surface of the front part 17 of the sensor case 11A. Since the cable penetration part 26 is penetrated and the external connection connector 31 at the end is connected to the connector part 14 of the control board connection cable 13 outside the sensor case 11A, the liquid or the like flows downward by gravity. Therefore, intrusion of liquid or the like into the sensor case 11A is suppressed, and the antifouling property and reliability are improved.

センサーケース11Aと筐体上面の接合面に、カバー部防水部材(第1の防水部材)32を挿入しているので、センサーケース11Aと筐体上面の接触面からのセンサーケース取付穴7c内への液体等の侵入を抑制することができる。   Since the cover portion waterproof member (first waterproof member) 32 is inserted into the joint surface between the sensor case 11A and the upper surface of the housing, the sensor case mounting hole 7c from the contact surface of the sensor case 11A and the upper surface of the housing is inserted. Intrusion of liquid or the like can be suppressed.

筐体上面におけるセンサーケース取付穴7c周辺の少なくとも一部(前後および製品端側側面)に、凸条部33,34,35を設けているので、凸条部33はトッププレート上の被加熱物である液体(お湯や煮汁等)が筐体上面に溢れた場合等にセンサーケース取付穴7cへ侵入するのを抑制することができる。また、凸条部34,35は筐体が設置されるシステムキッチンの上面からのセンサーケース取付穴7cへの液体の侵入を抑制することができる。   Since the protrusions 33, 34, and 35 are provided on at least a part of the upper surface of the housing around the sensor case mounting hole 7c (front and rear and product end side surfaces), the protrusions 33 are heated objects on the top plate. It is possible to prevent the liquid (hot water, boiled juice, etc.) that is spilled into the sensor case mounting hole 7c when the upper surface of the casing overflows. Further, the protrusions 34 and 35 can suppress liquid from entering the sensor case mounting hole 7c from the upper surface of the system kitchen where the housing is installed.

センサーケース11Aの筐体上面からの突出部の最も外側となる上部品19の外周面を一体的に形成しているので、図2のように通風口グリル2bと一体のカバー部材3bを外した状態で、センサーケース11Aの視認できる部位に継ぎ目が無く、したがってセンサーケース11A内への液体の流入等を抑制することができる。   Since the outer peripheral surface of the upper part 19 which is the outermost part of the protruding portion from the upper surface of the housing of the sensor case 11A is integrally formed, the cover member 3b integrated with the ventilation grill 2b is removed as shown in FIG. In the state, there is no seam in the visible part of the sensor case 11A, and therefore the inflow of liquid into the sensor case 11A can be suppressed.

センサーケース11Aの筐体上面からの突出部となる上部品19は、前面に開口部となる窓枠19aを有し、窓枠19aの内側に前部品17の窓部17aに嵌め込まれている矩形状の赤外線透過部材50が配置され、赤外線透過部材50の周縁部が上部品19の窓枠19aの縁にて覆われるようにしているので、赤外線透過部材50の矩形状周縁部が外面に露出せず、ユーザーが触ってケガ等をすることがなく、安全性が確保されるとともに、赤外線透過部材50とセンサーケースすなわち上部品19との接触面が増加し、上部品19と赤外線透過部材50との隙間からの液体の侵入等が抑制される。さらに、赤外線透過部材50の周縁部を前部品17によって支持することにより、赤外線透過部材50の強度を向上させることができ、外部からの力・衝撃への耐力が向上する。   The upper part 19 that is a protruding part from the upper surface of the housing of the sensor case 11A has a window frame 19a that is an opening on the front surface, and a rectangular shape that is fitted into the window part 17a of the front part 17 inside the window frame 19a. Since the shape of the infrared transmitting member 50 is arranged and the peripheral edge of the infrared transmitting member 50 is covered with the edge of the window frame 19a of the upper part 19, the rectangular peripheral edge of the infrared transmitting member 50 is exposed to the outer surface. Without being touched by the user, the safety is ensured, and the contact surface between the infrared transmitting member 50 and the sensor case, that is, the upper component 19 is increased, and the upper component 19 and the infrared transmitting member 50 are increased. Intrusion of liquid from the gap is suppressed. Furthermore, by supporting the peripheral part of the infrared transmitting member 50 by the front part 17, the strength of the infrared transmitting member 50 can be improved, and the resistance to external force and impact is improved.

センサーケース11Aの前部品17の窓部17aと赤外線透過部材50の接触面の間に防水部材(第2の防水部材)21を挿入しているので、赤外線透過部材50と前部品17の接触面の隙間からの液体の侵入等を抑制することができる。   Since the waterproof member (second waterproof member) 21 is inserted between the window 17a of the front part 17 of the sensor case 11A and the contact surface of the infrared transmission member 50, the contact surface of the infrared transmission member 50 and the front component 17 It is possible to suppress the intrusion of liquid from the gap.

センサーケース11Aの筐体上面からの突出部の少なくとも一部を覆うカバー部材3bを設けているので、センサーケース11Aへの外部からの物の衝突や液体の侵入を抑制することができる。   Since the cover member 3b that covers at least a part of the protruding portion from the upper surface of the housing of the sensor case 11A is provided, it is possible to suppress collision of an object from the outside and intrusion of liquid into the sensor case 11A.

カバー部材3bは、赤外線透過部材5bで覆われた窓部を有し、通風口グリル2bと一体化され、筐体上面より着脱可能であるため、窓部の清掃が容易で、測定の精度を維持することが容易である。   The cover member 3b has a window portion covered with the infrared transmitting member 5b, is integrated with the ventilation grille 2b, and is detachable from the upper surface of the housing, so that the window portion can be easily cleaned and the measurement accuracy is improved. Easy to maintain.

カバー部材3bは、通風性を有し、吸気または排気を行う通気口の少なくとも一部を覆うように設けられているので、吸排気口のグリルを兼用させることが可能で、その場合には部品点数が減らせ低コスト化できる。また、このようにカバー部材3bに吸排気口のグリルを兼用させた場合には、吸排気口のグリルと赤外線透過部材5bの清掃が同時に行え、メンテナンス性が向上する。   The cover member 3b is ventilated and is provided so as to cover at least a part of the air vent that performs intake or exhaust, so that the grill of the air intake and exhaust can also be used. The number of points can be reduced and the cost can be reduced. Further, when the cover member 3b is also used as an intake / exhaust port grill, cleaning of the intake / exhaust port grill and the infrared transmitting member 5b can be performed at the same time, thereby improving maintainability.

なお、赤外線透過部材の表面に反射防止膜を設けることは好ましい。この場合には、赤外線の透過率が向上し、測定精度が更に向上する。   In addition, it is preferable to provide an antireflection film on the surface of the infrared transmitting member. In this case, the infrared transmittance is improved and the measurement accuracy is further improved.

また、赤外線透過部材の表面に特定波長透過膜を設けることは好ましい。この場合には、不要な波長の透過が無くなり、赤外線センサー4の外乱要因が減り、精度が向上する。   Further, it is preferable to provide a specific wavelength transmission film on the surface of the infrared transmission member. In this case, transmission of unnecessary wavelengths is eliminated, the disturbance factor of the infrared sensor 4 is reduced, and the accuracy is improved.

筐体上面のセンサーケース取付穴7cを、吸気または排気の通風が可能な吸気口7a,7bまたは排気口6と同一の開口部に形成してあるので、筐体上面の加工が簡単で済み、コストを低減することができる。さらに、筐体上面のスペース効率が高まり、その分、吸気口・排気口の面積を大きくできて、圧力損失が低減でき、冷却ファン騒音の低減化が図れる。   The sensor case mounting hole 7c on the upper surface of the housing is formed in the same opening as the intake ports 7a and 7b or the exhaust port 6 through which intake or exhaust air can be ventilated. Cost can be reduced. Furthermore, the space efficiency on the upper surface of the housing is increased, and the area of the intake port / exhaust port can be increased accordingly, pressure loss can be reduced, and cooling fan noise can be reduced.

また、複数の異なる製品(機種)の誘導加熱調理器において、(右)誘導加熱コイルの水平方向の配置位置が異なる場合においても、(右)センサーケース11Aの位置・取付角度を一定に固定した条件において、複数の製品の(右)誘導加熱コイルの水平方向の配置の中心を結ぶ線の中心に赤外線センサー4の水平方向の光軸が向くように赤外線センサー4を(右)センサーケース11A内に取り付けることにより、複数の異なる製品(機種)において(右)センサーケース11Aを共用化でき、標準化され、製品コストを低くすることができる。   In addition, in the induction heating cooker of a plurality of different products (models), (right) even when the horizontal arrangement positions of the induction heating coils are different, (right) the position and mounting angle of the sensor case 11A are fixed. Under the conditions, the infrared sensor 4 is placed on the right side of the sensor case 11A so that the horizontal optical axis of the infrared sensor 4 faces the center of a line connecting the centers of the horizontal arrangements of the (right) induction heating coils of a plurality of products. By attaching to the sensor case, (right) the sensor case 11A can be shared in a plurality of different products (models), standardized, and product cost can be reduced.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
7 is a perspective view of a state where the one side ventilation grill of the induction heating cooker according to the second embodiment of the present invention is disassembled, FIG. 8 is an exploded perspective view of the sensor case mounting hole, and FIG. 9 is the sensor case. FIG. 10 is a side sectional view of the sensor case mounting hole including the cover member. In each figure, the same reference numerals are given to the same functional parts as those in the first embodiment. .

本実施の形態の誘導加熱調理器は、図7乃至図10のようにセンサーケース11Bが、前述の実施の形態1のものと同様に、大別して前部品17と後部品18と上部品19の3部品で構成される。前後の部品17,18が組み合わされた後、外周面が一体的に形成されてなる上部品19が被せられることで、これらが一体化される。   As shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, the induction heating cooker of this embodiment is roughly divided into the sensor case 11B of the front part 17, the rear part 18, and the upper part 19 in the same manner as in the first embodiment. Consists of three parts. After the front and rear parts 17 and 18 are combined, an upper part 19 having an outer peripheral surface formed integrally is covered, so that they are integrated.

これを更に詳述すると、センサーケース11Bの前部品17には、赤外線センサー4が受光するための円形の窓部(開口部)17bが設けられている。この窓部17bには、前述の実施の形態1で説明したような赤外線透過部材は取り付けられておらず、窓部17bの裏面エッジ部と赤外線センサー4の先端の間に図9のように防水部材(第2の防水部材)41が挿入されているのみである。ここでは、赤外線透過部材は、図10に示すようにカバー部材(片側のみ示す)3bの窓部に取り付けられた赤外線透過部材5bだけであり、それより内側には設けられていない。   More specifically, the front part 17 of the sensor case 11B is provided with a circular window (opening) 17b for the infrared sensor 4 to receive light. The window portion 17b is not attached with the infrared transmitting member as described in the first embodiment, and is waterproof between the back surface edge portion of the window portion 17b and the tip of the infrared sensor 4 as shown in FIG. Only the member (second waterproof member) 41 is inserted. Here, as shown in FIG. 10, the infrared transmitting member is only the infrared transmitting member 5b attached to the window portion of the cover member (only one side is shown) 3b, and is not provided on the inner side.

また、センサーケース11Bの前部品17の底部にコネクタ貫通部が形成され、センサー回路基板コネクタ28がセンサー回路基板10からコネクタ貫通部まで延出して設けられていて、センサー回路基板コネクタ28と制御基板接続ケーブル13のコネクタ部14とを直接接続することで、制御回路とセンサー回路とが結線されるようにしたものである。それ以外の構成は前述の実施の形態1のものと同一であり、実施の形態1のもつ基本機能は全て備えているものである。   Further, a connector penetrating portion is formed at the bottom of the front part 17 of the sensor case 11B, and a sensor circuit board connector 28 is provided extending from the sensor circuit board 10 to the connector penetrating portion. The control circuit and the sensor circuit are connected by directly connecting the connector portion 14 of the connection cable 13. Other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment described above, and all the basic functions of the first embodiment are provided.

本実施の形態の誘導加熱調理器においては、センサーケース11Bの前部品17の窓部17bの裏面エッジ部と赤外線センサー4の先端の間に挿入した防水部材41により、前部品17の窓部17bと赤外線センサー4の隙間から液体等が侵入するのを抑制することができる。   In the induction heating cooker of the present embodiment, the window 17b of the front part 17 is provided by the waterproof member 41 inserted between the back edge of the window 17b of the front part 17 of the sensor case 11B and the tip of the infrared sensor 4. Intrusion of liquid or the like from the gap between the infrared sensor 4 and the infrared sensor 4 can be suppressed.

また、赤外線透過部材は、カバー部材3bの窓部に取り付けられた赤外線透過部材5bだけであるので、赤外線透過部材の数が減った分、赤外線透過部材そのものが光を吸収することによる損失を低減することができ、赤外線の透過量を増やすことができる。このため、測定精度が向上する。   Further, since the infrared transmitting member is only the infrared transmitting member 5b attached to the window portion of the cover member 3b, the loss due to the infrared transmitting member itself absorbing light is reduced as the number of infrared transmitting members is reduced. It is possible to increase the amount of infrared transmission. For this reason, the measurement accuracy is improved.

また、センサーケース11Bの前部品17の底部にコネクタ貫通部を形成し、センサー回路基板コネクタ28をセンサー回路基板10からコネクタ貫通部まで延出して設け、制御基板接続ケーブル13のコネクタ部14と直接接続できるようにしているので、基板の部品であるコネクタが露出せず、液体等は重力により下方へ流れ、コネクタ貫通部への侵入が抑制されることから、防汚性・信頼性を向上することができる。さらに、中継ケーブルが不要となり、その分、ケーブルやコネクタの数が少なくて済み、部品コスト、組立コストを低くでき、製品コストを下げることができる。   In addition, a connector penetrating portion is formed at the bottom of the front part 17 of the sensor case 11B, and a sensor circuit board connector 28 is provided extending from the sensor circuit board 10 to the connector penetrating portion, and is directly connected to the connector portion 14 of the control board connecting cable 13. Since it is possible to connect, the connector, which is a component of the board, is not exposed, and liquid etc. flows downward due to gravity, so that intrusion into the connector penetration is suppressed, improving antifouling properties and reliability be able to. Furthermore, a relay cable is not required, and the number of cables and connectors can be reduced correspondingly, so that component costs and assembly costs can be reduced, and product costs can be reduced.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
FIG. 11 is a perspective view of the induction heating cooker according to Embodiment 3 of the present invention with the top plate removed and the one side vent grill is disassembled, and FIG. 12 is the perspective view of the substrate case unit and chamber disassembled. FIG. 13 is an exploded perspective view of the sensor case, and FIG. 14 is a side sectional view of the sensor case mounting hole including the cover member. In each figure, the same functional portion as that of the first embodiment is described. Are given the same reference numerals.

本実施の形態の誘導加熱調理器は、図11乃至図14のようにセンサーケース11Cが、前述の実施の形態1のものと同様に、大別して前部品17と後部品18と上部品19の3部品で構成される。前後の部品17,18が組み合わされた後、外周面が一体的に形成されてなる上部品19が被せられることで、これらが一体化される。   As shown in FIGS. 11 to 14, the induction heating cooker of the present embodiment is roughly divided into the sensor case 11C of the front part 17, the rear part 18, and the upper part 19 in the same manner as in the first embodiment. Consists of three parts. After the front and rear parts 17 and 18 are combined, an upper part 19 having an outer peripheral surface formed integrally is covered, so that they are integrated.

これを更に詳述すると、センサーケース11Cの前部品17には、赤外線センサー4が受光するための矩形状の窓部17aが設けられ、窓部17aに矩形状の防水部材(第2の防水部材)21を介して矩形状の赤外線透過部材50が嵌め込まれている。赤外線透過部材50の周縁部は、上部品19の窓枠19aにて覆われ、内側に収納されるようになっている。なお、本実施の形態においては、図14に示すようにカバー部材3b(3a)の窓部3cに赤外線透過部材が取り付けられておらず、カバー部材3b(3a)の窓部3cを通して空気を通風できるようにしている。   More specifically, the front part 17 of the sensor case 11C is provided with a rectangular window 17a for the infrared sensor 4 to receive light, and the window 17a has a rectangular waterproof member (second waterproof member). ) A rectangular infrared transmission member 50 is fitted through 21. The peripheral edge portion of the infrared transmitting member 50 is covered with the window frame 19a of the upper part 19 and stored inside. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 14, no infrared transmitting member is attached to the window 3c of the cover member 3b (3a), and air is passed through the window 3c of the cover member 3b (3a). I can do it.

また、センサーケース11Cの前部品17における筐体内への収納部の前面側に、吸気口17dが設けられているとともに、センサーケース11Cの筐体上面からの突出部である上部品19の窓枠19aに、前部品17における赤外線透過部材配置面に沿うスリット状のノズルに形成された排気口19bが設けられており、かつこれら吸気口17dと排気口19bの間が風路17cにより通風可能に構成されている。これにより、赤外線透過部材50をエアカーテンによって保護することが可能となり、赤外線透過部材50への塵埃や油煙の付着、湯気(水蒸気)の結露を抑制することができる。さらに、カバー部材3b内の圧力が高まることで、カバー部材3bの窓部3cから室内に空気が放出されるため、カバー部材3b内への塵埃や油煙の侵入も抑制される。カバー部材3bの内部と通風口グリル2b部は、ダクトによって概ね分離されており、カバー部材3bから吹出された空気が直接吸気口から吸われることはない。特に、カバー部材3bの吹出口となる窓部3cは、筐体上面より高い位置に配置されるため、液体等の侵入は抑制される。   In addition, an air inlet 17d is provided on the front side of the housing part in the housing of the front part 17 of the sensor case 11C, and the window frame of the upper part 19 which is a protruding part from the top surface of the housing of the sensor case 11C. 19a is provided with an exhaust port 19b formed in a slit-like nozzle along the infrared transmitting member arrangement surface in the front part 17, and the air passage 17c allows ventilation between the intake port 17d and the exhaust port 19b. It is configured. Thereby, the infrared transmitting member 50 can be protected by the air curtain, and adhesion of dust and oil smoke to the infrared transmitting member 50 and condensation of steam (water vapor) can be suppressed. Furthermore, since the pressure in the cover member 3b is increased, air is released into the room from the window 3c of the cover member 3b, so that intrusion of dust and oil smoke into the cover member 3b is also suppressed. The inside of the cover member 3b and the vent hole grill 2b are generally separated by a duct, and the air blown from the cover member 3b is not directly sucked from the intake port. In particular, since the window 3c serving as the outlet of the cover member 3b is disposed at a position higher than the upper surface of the housing, intrusion of liquid or the like is suppressed.

また、本実施の形態の誘導加熱調理器においては、図11のように前側の誘導加熱コイル8a,8b(一方のみ図示)の下方に、上面に吹出口61を有し、基板ケースユニット70に接続されたチャンバ60が配置されている。なお、ここで重要なことは筐体内の圧力を冷却風により高めるようにすることであり、チャンバ60は必ずしも必要ではない。   In addition, in the induction heating cooker of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, an air outlet 61 is provided on the upper surface below the front induction heating coils 8 a and 8 b (only one is shown), and the substrate case unit 70 is provided. A connected chamber 60 is arranged. Here, what is important is that the pressure in the housing is increased by cooling air, and the chamber 60 is not necessarily required.

基板ケースユニット70には、図12のように電動機76によって駆動される冷却ファン71が設けられ、回路部品や誘導加熱コイルの冷却を行うための冷却風を送風している。冷却風は、吸気口7bに接続される吸気ダクト72から吸引され、基板ケース吸気口73から基板ケース内に入り、冷却ファン71によりケース内の制御回路基板74の発熱部品を冷却した後、基板ケース排気口75より排気されるようになっている。また、基板ケース排気口75から排気された冷却風は、基板ケース排気口75に接続されるチャンバ吸気口62よりチャンバ60に流入して、チャンバ上面の吹出口61より上方の誘導加熱コイル8b(図2参照)の底面に吹き付けられ、誘導加熱コイル8bを冷却した後、筐体上面後方の排気口6へ流れ、筐体外へ排気されるようになっている。   The board case unit 70 is provided with a cooling fan 71 driven by an electric motor 76 as shown in FIG. 12, and blows cooling air for cooling circuit components and induction heating coils. The cooling air is sucked from the air intake duct 72 connected to the air inlet 7b, enters the board case from the board case air inlet 73, and cools the heat generating components of the control circuit board 74 in the case by the cooling fan 71, The air is exhausted from the case exhaust port 75. In addition, the cooling air exhausted from the substrate case exhaust port 75 flows into the chamber 60 from the chamber intake port 62 connected to the substrate case exhaust port 75, and the induction heating coil 8b ( 2), the induction heating coil 8b is cooled, and then flows to the exhaust port 6 at the rear of the upper surface of the housing to be exhausted out of the housing.

なお、電動機76により冷却ファン71が駆動されて筐体内に冷却風が送風されると、筐体内の圧力が高くなる。これにより、圧力の低い筐体1の開口部(排気口6や前述したセンサーケース11Cの排気口19bなど)に向かう気流が形成される。センサーケース11Cからの吹出空気の清浄性を保つため、筐体前面側から外部の空気を取り入れる、又はセンサーケース11Cの吸込口に流入する空気は空気清浄フィルターを通した後とする、等の手段を講じてもよい。なお、それ以外の構成(カバー部材3b(3a)の窓部3cに赤外線透過部材が取り付けられていない構成を除く)は、前述の実施の形態1のものと同一であり、実施の形態1のもつ基本機能は全て備えているものである。   Note that when the cooling fan 71 is driven by the electric motor 76 and the cooling air is blown into the housing, the pressure in the housing increases. Thereby, the airflow which goes to the opening part (exhaust port 6 or exhaust port 19b of sensor case 11C mentioned above) of the housing | casing 1 with a low pressure is formed. In order to maintain the cleanliness of the air blown from the sensor case 11C, outside air is taken in from the front side of the housing, or the air flowing into the suction port of the sensor case 11C passes through the air cleaning filter, etc. May be taken. The other configurations (except for the configuration in which the infrared transmitting member is not attached to the window 3c of the cover member 3b (3a)) are the same as those of the first embodiment described above. It has all basic functions.

このように、本実施の形態の誘導加熱調理器においては、センサーケース11Cの筐体内への収納部となる前部品17下部の前面側に、吸気口17dを設けるとともに、センサーケース11Cの筐体上面からの突出部となる上部品19の窓枠19aに、赤外線透過部材配置面に沿う排気口を設け、これら吸気口と排気口の間を通風可能としたので、カバー部材3b(3a)の窓部3cに赤外線透過部材を取り付ける必要がなくなって、赤外線透過部材の数を減らせ、赤外線透過部材を透過する光が赤外線透過部材により吸収されることによる検出光(赤外線)の減衰(損失)を低減することができ、測定精度が向上する。さらに、赤外線透過部材50への塵埃や油煙の付着、湯気(水蒸気)の結露をエアカーテンにより抑制することができる。   As described above, in the induction heating cooker according to the present embodiment, the intake port 17d is provided on the front side of the lower part of the front part 17 serving as a storage portion in the housing of the sensor case 11C, and the housing of the sensor case 11C.
