Dual Heating Device for Versatile Cooking Applications
Here’s PatSnap Eureka !
Summary
Problems
Existing electromagnetic heating devices can only heat ferromagnetic cooking appliances and are limited by the maximum heating power of their coil disks, restricting their application and efficiency.
Innovation solutions
An electromagnetic heating device incorporating both an electromagnetic heating unit and an infrared heating unit, controlled by a microcontroller (MCU) to heat individually or simultaneously, allowing for the heating of both ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic appliances and increasing maximum heating power.
TRIZ Analysis
Specific contradictions:
General conflict description:
Principle concept:
If only electromagnetic heating unit with coil disks is used, then the device can heat ferromagnetic cooking appliances, but it cannot heat un-ferromagnetic cooking appliances and the heating power is limited
Why choose this principle:
The patent combines electromagnetic heating unit and infrared heating unit into a single device. The electromagnetic heating unit uses coil disks to generate electromagnetic fields for heating ferromagnetic materials, while the infrared heating unit uses infrared heating films to emit infrared radiation for heating non-ferromagnetic materials. This merging of two different heating mechanisms allows the device to handle both ferromagnetic and non-ferromagnetic cooking appliances, resolving the contradiction between material compatibility and heating power.
Principle concept:
If only electromagnetic heating unit with coil disks is used, then the device can heat ferromagnetic cooking appliances, but it cannot heat un-ferromagnetic cooking appliances and the heating power is limited
Why choose this principle:
The heating device is designed with dual heating functions: electromagnetic heating for ferromagnetic materials and infrared heating for non-ferromagnetic materials. The control unit can selectively activate either heating unit or both simultaneously based on the cooking appliance material and power requirements, making the device universally applicable to different material types while providing sufficient heating power for each.
