Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a food weight sensing part in which a disturbance in assemblying and machining operaiton is less in its volume and an output voltage is stabled and increased. CONSTITUTION:Semiconductor type magnetic-electrical transducars 12a and 12b are placed in adjacent to a displacement direction around a magnet 11 to be displaced by a weight of food. The semiconductor magnetic-electircal transducers 12c and 12d are placed at symmetrical positions of the elements 12a and 12b with the magnet 11 being held therebetween. Magnetic-sensitive spacings D between theses elements 12a, 12b and 12c, 12d and are larger sizes than an inter-pole distance l of the magnet 11. Curing an assemblying and machining operation, it is satisfactory to place the magnet 11 in the magnetic- sensitive spacings D and so its disturbance is less. Since a plurality of semiconductor magnetic-electircal transduces 12a, 12b and 12c, 12d are disposed in a direction of displacement of the magnet 11, their output become four times of their original values. Even if the position of the magnet 11 is displaced, a composite output volatge of each of these elements is stabled.

7 is a table support rod for supporting the food 2, 8 is a table rotation motor installed on the support rod 7 to rotate the table 6, and 9 is a table 6. An elastic body 10 is made up of a plurality of leaf springs that supports the table 6 and generates a displacement corresponding to the weight of the food 2. Reference numeral 10 is a support part that fixes the end of the elastic body 9 and uses it as a fulcrum. 11 is a magnet provided at the end of the elastic body 10 opposite to the support portion 9; 12a, 12b;

That is, the detection section 28 for detecting the displacement of the elastic body 9 due to the weight of the food 2 is composed of the magnet 11 and a plurality of semiconductor magnetoelectric transducers 12a, 12b, 12c, and 12d. 14 indicates the food 2 based on the displacement detected by the detection unit 28.

Reference numeral 13 denotes an elastic body forced stop portion for regulating the maximum displacement of the elastic body 9. 15 is the bottom of the cooking device. FIG. 3 is a detailed configuration diagram of another embodiment of the weight detecting section 14 of the heating cooking apparatus of the present invention. [0012] Support parts 10 and 10A are provided to support the placing table 6 on which the food 2 is placed, and to fix both ends of an elastic body 9 made of a leaf spring that causes displacement corresponding to the weight of the food 2, and to serve as a fulcrum. , a magnet 11 is provided which is displaced in response to the displacement near the center of the elastic body 9, and the displacement of the elastic body 9 made of a leaf spring is detected by the magnet 1.

When the Hall element 12 applies a magnetic field B by flowing a constant control current Ic to the input terminals 16 and 16A, a Hall output voltage (VH=K·Ic·
B) occurs, and a Hall output voltage proportional to the magnetic flux density is obtained as shown in FIG. Therefore, the displacement of the magnet can be detected by the Hall voltage generated between the output terminals 17 and 17A.

In FIG. 6, it is necessary that the distance D between the magnetically sensitive parts of the plurality of semiconductor magnetoelectric transducers be equal to or larger than the distance L between the magnetic poles of the magnet 11. For example, if two Hall elements 12a and 12b are used, and the magnet 11 has a distance L between magnetic poles that is smaller than the magnetic sensing part interval D, the Hall element 12a

When the output voltage difference (combined output voltage) with the output voltage of 2b is calculated, it becomes as shown in FIG. 8(b), and the sensitivity of the Hall element output voltage due to the displacement of the magnet 11 is doubled, making it possible to obtain a large signal/noise ratio. can. FIG. 9 shows a detection section 28 for detecting the displacement of the elastic body.
This is another example showing the arrangement of a magnet and a plurality of semiconductor magnetoelectric conversion elements. Semiconductor magnetoelectric transducers 12a and 12c made of Hall elements are installed in installation parts 14 and 14A at symmetrical positions near the periphery of the magnet 11, which is displaced in response to the displacement of an elastic body 9 made of a leaf spring that is displaced in accordance with the weight of the food 2. Furthermore, Hall elements 12c and 12d are provided at positions separated by a distance (magnetic sensing part interval) D from the Hall elements 12a and 12c in the direction of displacement of the magnet 11. Note that the distance L between the magnetic poles of the magnet 11 needs to be equal to or smaller than the distance D between the magnetically sensitive parts of the Hall element. The displacement of the magnet 11 that is displaced in response to the weight of the food 2, the output voltage difference between the Hall elements 12a and 12c (combined output voltage), and the Hall element 1
The characteristics of the output voltage difference (combined output voltage) between 2c and 12d are shown in characteristics 23 and 24 in FIG. 10(a). Figure 10(b)
is the characteristic obtained by further combining the composite output voltage characteristic 23 of Hall elements 12a and 12b shown in FIG. 10(a) and the composite output voltage characteristic 24 of Hall elements 12c and 12d, and the magnet 1.
1, and the sensitivity of the Hall element output voltage due to the displacement of the magnet 11 (corresponding to the weight of the food 2) increases four times. Characteristics 25 and 26 shown in FIG. 10(a)
, the installation position of the magnet 11 is the Hall element installation part 14 and 14
From the center of A to the Hall element installation part 14 side (Hall element 12
Hall element 1 when installed shifted to side c, 12d)
The combined output voltage characteristics of Hall elements 2a and 12b and the combined output voltage of Hall elements 12c and 12d are shown. In other words, this is the combined output voltage characteristic of the Hall element when the distance between the magnet 11 and the Hall elements 12a and 12b is wide, and the distance between the magnet 11 and the Hall elements 12c and 12d is narrow, and the displacement of the magnet 11 ( (corresponds to the weight of food 2)
Since the Hall element output voltage characteristics differ greatly between the two, it becomes impossible to detect the weight of the food 2. However, when the combined output voltage characteristic 25 of the Hall elements 12a and 12b and the combined output voltage characteristic 26 of the Hall elements 12c and 12d are determined at this time, the Hall element output voltage characteristic shown in FIG. 10(b) is obtained. It has the same characteristics as 27. That is, the magnet 11 and the Hall element installation part 1
Even if the installation positions with 4 and 14A are shifted and vary, a set of Hall elements (12a
and 12c) at a symmetrical position around the magnet 11 at a distance D that is equal to or larger than the distance L between the magnetic poles of the magnet 11 in the displacement direction of the magnet 11. By installing another set of Hall elements (12b and 12d) and using the composite output voltage of the output voltages of the four Hall elements as a signal for detecting the weight of the food 2, depending on the displacement of the magnet 11, disturbances can be detected. It is possible to prevent the effects of noise, misalignment of installation position, etc. [0019] Since the present invention is constructed as described above, it is possible to obtain the effects described below. (1) The displacement of the elastic body due to the weight of the food is
Since the measurement is performed using the sum of the output signals of multiple semiconductor magnetoelectric transducers caused by the displacement of the magnet, the signal level is high and stable and is not easily affected by noise. (2) Since high precision parts are not required,
It's cheap. (3) Since the displacement of the magnet is detected by a plurality of magnetoelectric transducers installed at symmetrical positions around the magnet, it is less susceptible to installation work variations and installation errors, and highly accurate weight detection is possible. Can be cooked well.
