Description

本発明は、餅米を炊き上げた後、その餅米を搗き上げて餅を作る餅調理器に関する。 The present invention relates to a rice cake cooker for making rice cakes by pounding the rice cakes after cooking the rice cakes.

家庭で餅を作る餅調理器として、ボイラーで発生した蒸気をホッパーに供給して餅米を蒸し上げた後、回転羽根を回転して搗き上げる蒸し搗き方式が知られている。この方式の調理器は、調理前にもち米を１２時間程度かけて十分に吸水させる必要があるため、すぐに餅をつくることが出来ない。また、搗き工程を実行する前に蓋を開放する手間が発生するため、予約タイマーでできあがり時間を設定することや搗き上がった餅を保温して収容することが出来ない。 As a rice cake cooker for making rice cakes at home, a steaming method is known in which steam generated in a boiler is supplied to a hopper to steam the rice cakes, and then the rotary blades are rotated to pound the steamed rice cakes. In this type of cooker, the glutinous rice needs to be sufficiently water-absorbed for about 12 hours before cooking, so the rice cake cannot be made immediately. In addition, since it takes time to open the lid before the pounding process is performed, it is not possible to set the completion time with a reservation timer or to store the pounded rice cake while keeping it warm.

そこで、特許文献１に示すような、餅米を炊き上げた後、餅を搗き上げる炊き搗き方式の餅調理器が提案されている。特許文献１の炊き搗き方式では、蒸し搗き方式のように事前に餅米を十分に吸水させておくかわりに、予熱工程で加熱しながら米粒に吸水させ、炊飯工程で米粒をα化し、冷却工程で余分の水分が除いてから、ねり工程でねり上げて餅としている。 Therefore, there has been proposed a rice cake cooker of a cooking and pounding method in which the rice cake is pounded after the glutinous rice is cooked, as shown in Patent Document 1. In the cooking and pounding method of Patent Document 1, instead of allowing the glutinous rice to absorb sufficient water in advance like the steaming and pounding method, the rice grains are allowed to absorb water while being heated in the preheating process, the rice grains are gelatinized in the rice cooking process, and the cooling process. After the extra water is removed in the kneading process, the mochi is kneaded up in the kneading process.

この特許文献１では、予熱－撹拌－炊飯－冷却－ねりといった各工程を、時間の経過に伴い順次移行させている。しかし、予熱工程を時間によって管理した場合、餅米の種類等によって吸水の程度に差が生じやすい。しかも、予熱工程中に撹拌が行われないため、容器内の米粒に温度ムラが生じ、米粒全体を均一に糊化させることが難しい。その結果、予熱工程後の撹拌により糊化が不十分な米粒が糊化が進行した餅米と混ざりあうことで吸水が不十分なまま粒残りし、食味の悪い餅となる可能性があった。 In this patent document 1, each process of preheating-stirring-rice-cooking-cooling-kneading is sequentially shifted over time. However, when the preheating process is controlled by time, the degree of water absorption tends to vary depending on the type of glutinous rice. Moreover, since stirring is not performed during the preheating process, the temperature of the rice grains in the container is uneven, making it difficult to gelatinize the entire rice grains uniformly. As a result, rice grains with insufficient gelatinization due to stirring after the preheating process were mixed with glutinous rice with advanced gelatinization, leaving grains with insufficient water absorption, and there was a possibility that rice cakes with poor taste could be obtained. .

A control for executing a cooking and mixing step of heating and stirring ingredients in a cooking container to cook glutinous rice and a pounding step of kneading the cooked glutinous rice by controlling heating means, driving means, and heating means. The control means judges that the glutinous rice has reached a predetermined water absorption state based on the driving state of the driving means in the cooking and mixing process, and determines the process time from this judgment point to the end of cooking and mixing. It is characterized by being constant regardless of the amount.

制御手段は、炊き混ぜ工程における駆動手段の消費電力の経時変動が所定値よりも下降したら餅米が所定の吸水状況に達したと判断する。 The control means determines that the glutinous rice has reached a predetermined water absorption state when the power consumption of the driving means in the cooking and mixing process drops below a predetermined value.

本発明の餅調理器によれば、餅米の吸水状況を判断した上で、規定時間炊き混ぜ工程を実行するようにしたので、米の種類や量に関係なく、安定した餅米の炊飯を行うことができる。 According to the glutinous rice cooker of the present invention, the water absorption state of the glutinous rice is determined, and then the step of cooking and mixing is performed for a specified time. It can be carried out.

図４は調理器の制御系を示すプロック図である。
回路基板７は、マイコンボード２８とパワーボード２９とを備えている。マイコンボード２８には、餅調理コースの実行プログラムが記憶されたメモリ３０が内蔵されるとともに、操作パネル８とパワーボード２９が接続されており、パワーボード２９には、ブザー３１が設けられるとともに、モータ４・ヒータ２２・温度センサ２３がそれぞれ接続されている。 FIG. 4 is a block diagram showing the control system of the cooker.
The circuit board 7 has a microcomputer board 28 and a power board 29 . The microcomputer board 28 incorporates a memory 30 storing an execution program for the rice cake cooking course, and is connected to the operation panel 8 and a power board 29. The power board 29 is provided with a buzzer 31, A motor 4, a heater 22, and a temperature sensor 23 are connected respectively.

操作パネル８は、表示パネル３２と、餅調理コースを選択するコースキー３３、餅のかたさを選択するかたさキー３４と、調理完了時間を選択する予約キー３５と、調理を開始する開始キー３６と、調理の停止や設定の取消を行う停止キー３７とを備えている。コースキー３３では、餅米を炊いてから搗き上げて餅を作る炊き搗きコースと、この炊き搗きコースを時短で実行するスピードコースと、市販の切り餅や硬くなった餅をつきたての状態に戻す再練りコースと、調理前の餅米を洗米する洗米コースとが選択できる。かたさキー３４では、できあがった餅の軟らかさを「かため・ふつう・やわらかめ」の三段階から選択できる。予約キー３５では、餅のできあがりまでの時間を１時間後～１２時間後までの範囲で３０分毎に設定できる。 The operation panel 8 includes a display panel 32, a course key 33 for selecting the rice cake cooking course, a hardness key 34 for selecting the hardness of the rice cake, a reservation key 35 for selecting the cooking completion time, and a start key 36 for starting cooking. , and a stop key 37 for stopping cooking and canceling settings. In the course key 33, there is a cooking and pounding course in which glutinous rice is cooked and pounded to make mochi, a speed course in which this cooking and pounding course is executed in a short time, and commercially available cut mochi and hardened mochi to a freshly pounded state. A re-kneading course in which the glutinous rice is returned and a rice washing course in which the glutinous rice is washed before cooking can be selected. With the hardness key 34, the softness of the finished rice cake can be selected from three levels of "hard, medium, and soft." With the reservation key 35, the time until the rice cake is ready can be set every 30 minutes within the range of 1 hour to 12 hours.

これにより、マイコンボード２８では、操作パネル８で選択される餅調理コースに応じてメモリ３０からプログラムを読み出し、このプログラムに応じてパワーボード２９に接続されたモータ４やヒータ２２を制御する。以下、餅調理コースの＜炊き搗きコース＞と、＜再練りコース＞について説明する。 As a result, the microcomputer board 28 reads a program from the memory 30 according to the rice cake cooking course selected on the operation panel 8, and controls the motor 4 and heater 22 connected to the power board 29 according to this program. The <cooking and pounding course> and the <re-kneading course> of the mochi cooking course will be described below.

＜炊き搗きコース＞
このコースは、調理容器に餅米と水をセットするだけで、全自動で餅を作るコースである。ここでは、調理容器に餅米と、合数に応じた量の水を入れ、操作パネル８のコースキー３３で「炊き搗き」、かたさキー３４で「ふつう」を選択した場合を示す。 <Cooking course>
In this course, mochi is made fully automatically by simply setting glutinous rice and water in a cooking container. Here, glutinous rice and an amount of water corresponding to the total number are put in the cooking container, and the course key 33 of the operation panel 8 is used to select "cooked and pounded", and the hardness key 34 is used to select "normal".

開始キー３６を入力して調理が開始すると、炊き混ぜ工程が順次実行される。
炊き混ぜ工程は、ヒータ２２と温度センサ２３で調理室内を所定温度（１４０℃）に保持するよう温度制御（１）しながら、モータ４を低速駆動（２）して回転羽根１２をゆっくりと回転させ、餅米に吸水させていく。この吸水区間では、餅米を加熱しながらゆっくりとかき混ぜることで、調理容器内の餅米が位置替えされ、米全体がムラなく吸水される。尚、モータ４を所定のタイミングで高速駆動させて回転羽根１２を素早く回転させる動作を実行することで、餅米の部分的な焦げ付きを防止している。 When the start key 36 is pressed to start cooking, the cooking and mixing steps are sequentially executed.
In the cooking and mixing process, the heater 22 and the temperature sensor 23 control the temperature (1) so that the inside of the cooking chamber is maintained at a predetermined temperature (140° C.), while the motor 4 is driven at a low speed (2) to slowly rotate the rotary blade 12. Let the sticky rice absorb water. In this water absorption section, by slowly stirring the glutinous rice while heating it, the position of the glutinous rice in the cooking container is changed, and the entire rice absorbs water evenly. Incidentally, the motor 4 is driven at a high speed at a predetermined timing to quickly rotate the rotating blades 12, thereby preventing the glutinous rice from being partially scorched.

米粒が糊化してくると、米の粘性によってモータの回転負荷が高くなり、消費電力は次第に上昇していくが、更に糊化が進むと、米が１つの塊にまとまってくるため、モータの回転負荷が断片的に低下し、消費電力が下降に転ずる。そこで、消費電力の経時変動が所定値よりも下降したら餅米が所定の吸水状況に達したと判断（３）して、規定時間Ｔ１のタイマーをセットして、ヒータ２２と温度センサ２３による温度制御とモータ４による低速駆動を規定時間Ｔ１の間、餅米を炊飯していく。この炊飯区間では、米粒の芯部に渡って水分が浸透され、米粒の糊化をより進行させる。また、米粒をゆっくりとかき混ぜることで、糊化する前の餅米が糊化が進んだ餅米と混ざり込んで粒残りすることを防ぐ。 As the rice grains become gelatinized, the rotation load on the motor increases due to the viscosity of the rice, and the power consumption gradually increases. Rotational load drops fragmentarily, and power consumption begins to drop. Therefore, when the change in power consumption over time falls below a predetermined value, it is determined that the glutinous rice has reached a predetermined water absorption state (3), and a timer for a specified time T1 is set to detect the temperature detected by the heater 22 and the temperature sensor 23. Sticky rice is cooked for a specified time T1 by controlling and driving the motor 4 at a low speed. In this rice-cooking section, water is permeated across the core of the rice grain, and the gelatinization of the rice grain progresses further. In addition, by slowly stirring the rice grains, it is possible to prevent the ungelatinized glutinous rice from mixing with the gelatinized glutinous rice and leaving grains behind.

規定時間Ｔ１が経過（４）すると、モータ４とヒータ２２を停止（５）し、規定時間Ｔ２の間、餅米の蒸らし工程を行う。蒸らし工程では、米粒の加熱とかき混ぜを停止することで、米粒の性状を安定させ、米粒内の水分バランスが均一化され、餅米のコシと弾力を引き出す。 When the specified time T1 elapses (4), the motor 4 and the heater 22 are stopped (5), and the glutinous rice is steamed for the specified time T2. In the steaming process, by stopping the heating and stirring of the rice grains, the properties of the rice grains are stabilized, the moisture balance inside the rice grains is equalized, and the glutinous rice becomes elastic and elastic.

規定時間Ｔ２が経過（６）すると、モータ４を高速駆動（７）して回転羽根１２を回転させ、規定時間Ｔ３の間、炊きあがった餅米を搗き上げる搗き工程が実行される。搗き工程は、調理容器９の内面に膨出したリブが抵抗となって餅に捻転・展延の作用を与えることで、コシのある餅が搗き上げる。規定時間Ｔ３が経過（８）すると、モータ４を停止（９）して調理終了となり、ブザーを発動して報知する。 When the specified time T2 elapses (6), the motor 4 is driven at high speed (7) to rotate the rotary vane 12, and the pounding step of pounding the cooked glutinous rice is performed for the specified time T3. In the pounding process, the ribs protruded on the inner surface of the cooking container 9 act as resistance to twist and spread the rice cake, thereby pounding the rice cake with a firm texture. When the specified time T3 has passed (8), the motor 4 is stopped (9) to end the cooking, and the buzzer is activated to notify the end of the cooking.

搗き上がる餅の軟らかさは、搗き工程の開始と同時に駆動するヒータ２２の時間によって調整する。餅米を再加熱することで、餅米の水分量が蒸気として排出されるため、搗き上がったときに餅をかために仕上げることができる。そのため、かたさキー３４で「ふつう」が選択されると、再加熱時間ｔ１を設定し、搗き工程開始から時間ｔ１の間、ヒータ２２を駆動する。尚、かたさキー３４で「かため」が選択されると、時間ｔ１より長い再加熱時間ｔ２を設定する一方、かたさキー３４で「やわらかめ」が選択されると、再加熱は行わない。 The softness of the pounded mochi is adjusted by adjusting the time of the heater 22 that is driven at the start of the pounding process. By reheating the glutinous rice, the water content of the glutinous rice is discharged as steam, so the mochi can be made firm when pounded. Therefore, when "Normal" is selected with the hardness key 34, the reheating time t1 is set, and the heater 22 is driven for the time t1 from the start of the pounding process. When "hard" is selected with the hardness key 34, the reheating time t2 is set longer than the time t1.

このように、炊き搗きコースは、炊き混ぜ→蒸らし→搗きの各工程を順次実行して餅を作るコースである。炊き混ぜ工程は、餅米が所定の吸水状況になったと判断してから、規定時間の炊飯を行うことを特徴としている。これにより、米量・水量・米の種類等に関係なく、安定した仕上がりの餅を提供することができる。 In this way, the cooking and pounding course is a course for making rice cakes by sequentially executing the steps of cooking and mixing→steaming→polishing. The cooking and mixing step is characterized by performing rice cooking for a specified time after judging that the glutinous rice has reached a predetermined water absorption state. As a result, regardless of the amount of rice, the amount of water, the type of rice, etc., it is possible to provide rice cakes with a stable finish.

また、搗き工程では、搗き始めに餅米を再加熱する時間によって、仕上がりの餅の軟らかさを調整することを特徴としている。これにより、搗き工程の時間は変えることなく、餅の軟らかさを変えることができる。 In the pounding process, the softness of the finished glutinous rice cake is adjusted by adjusting the time for reheating the glutinous rice at the beginning of pounding. This makes it possible to change the softness of the mochi without changing the time of the pounding process.

尚、上記した処理（３）では、消費電力の経時変動が所定値よりも下降したら餅米が所定の吸水状況に達したと判断しているが、これは特に限定されるものではなく、モータ４の電流値や電圧値に基づいて判断しても良い。 In the process (3) described above, it is determined that the glutinous rice has reached a predetermined water absorption state when the change in power consumption over time falls below a predetermined value. The determination may be made based on the current value and voltage value of 4.

＜再練りコース＞
このコースは、市販の切り餅もしくは家庭で硬くなった餅を軟らかいつきたての餅に戻すためのコースである。調理室内を所定温度（１４０℃）に保持するよう温度制御（１）しながら、ここでは、調理容器に市販の切り餅２～７枚と、枚数に応じた量の水を入れ、操作パネル８のコースキー３３で「再練り」を選択した後、開始キー３６を入力すると調理が開始する。 <Re-kneading course>
This course is for returning commercially available kirimochi or hardened mochi at home to soft, freshly pounded mochi. While controlling the temperature (1) so as to maintain the inside of the cooking chamber at a predetermined temperature (140° C.), here, 2 to 7 commercially available cut rice cakes and an amount of water corresponding to the number of rice cakes are put in the cooking container, and the operation panel 8 is turned on. After selecting "re-kneading" with the course key 33, the start key 36 is pressed to start cooking.

調理が開始すると、ヒータ２２が駆動（１０）して調理室内を所定温度（１４０℃）に加熱する。調理室内が所定温度に到達（１１）したら、調理室内を所定温度（１４０℃）に保持するよう温度制御（１２）しながら、モータ４を低速で駆動（１３）して回転羽根１２を回転させる。これにより、切り餅は、加熱された水とともにゆっくり撹拌されることで軟化していく。モータ４の低速駆動から規定時間Ｔ４が経過（１４）すると、切り餅が１つの塊にまとまってくるので、この時点からモータ４を高速駆動（１５）して餅を練り上げる。規定時間Ｔ５が経過（１６）すると、モータ４とヒータ２２を停止（１７）して調理終了となり、ブザーを発動して報知する。尚、搗き工程中において、所定のタイミングでブザーを発動し、餅に混ぜ込む具材の投入を促す報知を行ってもよい。 When cooking starts, the heater 22 is driven (10) to heat the inside of the cooking chamber to a predetermined temperature (140° C.). When the inside of the cooking chamber reaches a predetermined temperature (11), the motor 4 is driven at a low speed (13) to rotate the rotating blade 12 while controlling the temperature (12) so as to maintain the inside of the cooking chamber at a predetermined temperature (140°C). . As a result, the kirimochi is softened by being slowly agitated with the heated water. When the specified time T4 elapses (14) from the low speed drive of the motor 4, the cut rice cakes are gathered into one mass, so from this time the motor 4 is driven at high speed (15) to knead the rice cakes. When the specified time T5 elapses (16), the motor 4 and the heater 22 are stopped (17) to end the cooking, and the buzzer is activated to notify. In addition, during the pounding process, a buzzer may be activated at a predetermined timing to notify the user of the need to add the ingredients to be mixed into the mochi.

以上のように、本発明の餅調理器は構成され、炊き搗き方式で餅を作ることができる。むろん、調理容器に回転羽根を備えた構成であるため、パン・うどん等の生地作りをしたり、うるち米の炊飯を行うこともできる。また、主にパン焼き器・炊飯器・オーブンとして機能する調理器に、餅調理コースを追加した場合であっても、本発明の餅調理機能を付加することが可能である。 As described above, the rice cake cooker of the present invention is configured and can make rice cakes by the cooking and pounding method. Of course, since the cooking container is provided with rotating blades, it is also possible to make dough for bread, udon noodles, etc., and to cook non-glutinous rice. Also, even if a rice cake cooking course is added to a cooker that mainly functions as a bread maker, rice cooker, or oven, the rice cake cooking function of the present invention can be added.
