Cooking system with assisted use

Abstract

The invention provides a cooking system including a pressure pot (1) provided with a manual control member (4) which is installed movably between a plurality of positions corresponding to a plurality of operating states. The positions are associated with identification marks (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) located in a pre-arrangement. The cooking system is characterized in that the cooking system also includes a graphical user interface or ''GUI''(10) providing help for use of the pressure pot (1), the GUI is operated on a computer terminal (11) provided with a display screen, the GUI (10) is designed to firstly display a pictorial chart located in the arrangement corresponding to a pre-arrangment on the display screen, and secondly display a virtual mouse assigning one pictorial chart in the pictorial charts. The system also includes a radio communication device designed to control the position of the virtual mouse by the position of the manual control member (4).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the general technical field of cooking appliances of the cooking pot type, and in particular to the field of pressure cookers, ie pressure cookers for cooking contained food products under steam pressure. [0002] The present invention more particularly relates to a domestic food cooking system comprising a pressure cooker provided with at least one manual control member mounted in positions corresponding to respective operating states of said pressure cooker Each of the positions is associated with a corresponding one of the identification marks positioned on the pressure cooker in the predetermined layout. [0003] The invention also relates to a domestic method of cooking food in a pressure cooker provided with at least one manual control member mounted between positions corresponding to respective operating states of said pressure cooker Each of the locations is associated with a corresponding one of the signatures p...

Problems solved by technology

[0017] In light of the above, initially to a general knowledgeable user wishing to use such a pressure cooker in a domestic environment, such pressure cookers may appear relatively complicated and daunting and / or stressful to use

[0018] The relative complexity of controlling such pressure cookers also enables the attainment of rather significant sensory and nutritional cooking results when such pressure cookers are used correctly, and this complexity prevents the user from using the pressure cooker optimally and utilizing its full potential The risk of merit

[0019] Finally, currently known modern domestic pressure cookers offer remarkable cooking performance, but at the expense of a design that may appear complicated to the user such that said user (or at least some users) cannot take full advantage of the features of the pressure cooker in question

[0020] Lack of ergonomics and lack of clarity of information can even lead users to use the pressure cooker incorrectly in certain situations (e.g. user thinks a pressure cook cycle has started when in fact the user has left the pressure cooker in the reduced pressure position without being aware of it), or indeed in the most critical cases and in combination with other factors, may even lead to a risk of accidents, especially those caused by scalding
