Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of kitchen appliances technology, and in particular to a cooking appliance for an induction cooker. Background Technology

[0002] An induction cooker is an electric cooking appliance that utilizes the principle of electromagnetic induction. It directly generates a large number of eddy currents at the bottom of the pot, causing the pot to absorb Joule heat and rapidly increase its temperature, thus converting electromagnetic energy into thermal energy. During the heating process, the induction cooker itself does not generate heat, nor does it radiate heat to the outside or dissipate heat through convection with the surrounding air. Therefore, it is a highly efficient electric cooking appliance. Consequently, it has become widely popular in today's world where energy conservation is a deeply ingrained concept.

[0003] When stir-frying or cooking various dishes on an induction cooker, there's a process called "reducing the sauce," which involves evaporating some of the water in the pan to achieve the desired sauce reduction. Currently, reducing the sauce on induction cookers requires manual intervention. Users adjust the heat and judge when the sauce has reduced based on the amount of liquid in the pan, requiring them to stay by the pan, which restricts cooking freedom. To improve cooking freedom, a new type of automatic sauce-reducing pan has been developed. This pan uses a temperature sensor to adjust the heat and determine when the sauce has reduced. However, due to the limited heating height of the induction cooker, the reduction effect is significantly reduced, sometimes failing to achieve the desired result.

[0004] Given the shortcomings of existing technologies, there is an urgent need to research a cooking appliance for induction cookers to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a cooker for induction cookers. This invention ensures that the heating environments of the first temperature sensor assembly and the second temperature sensor assembly are nearly identical, thereby achieving the desired sauce reduction effect. This breaks the limitation of the heating range of the induction cooker on the automatic sauce reduction effect, and thus improves the applicability of the cooker for induction cookers.

[0006] This invention provides a cooking appliance for an induction cooker, comprising:

[0007] The pot body includes interconnected pot walls and pot bottom, with a first heating element surrounding the pot walls circumferentially, and a second heating element disposed on the pot bottom;

[0008] A heat-conducting component, one end of which is connected to the first heating element; the height of the heat-conducting component is higher than the height of the first heating element along the height direction of the pot body;

[0009] A second temperature sensor assembly for collecting the temperature of the bottom of the pot is disposed on the second heating element;

[0010] A first temperature sensor assembly for collecting the temperature of the pot wall is disposed on the heat-conducting assembly;

[0011] The controller is electrically connected to the first temperature sensor assembly and the second temperature sensor assembly respectively, and is used to control the operating parameters of the induction cooker according to the temperature of the pot wall and the temperature of the pot bottom.

[0012] Furthermore, the thermally conductive component includes at least one thermally conductive element;

[0013] At least one heat-conducting element is spaced apart on the pot wall;

[0014] The first temperature sensor assembly includes at least one first temperature sensor;

[0015] At least one of the first temperature sensors is provided on each of the heat-conducting components.

[0016] Furthermore, along the height direction of the pot body, the at least one heat-conducting element is arranged at staggered intervals.

[0017] Furthermore, along the height direction of the pot body, the first temperature sensor is positioned above the first heating element.

[0018] Furthermore, the heat-conducting component is made of copper or silver.

[0019] Furthermore, at least two first temperature sensors are provided on the heat-conducting element at the same height on the pot wall.

[0020] Furthermore, the induction cooker is equipped with an electromagnetic coil, and the maximum vertical distance between the first heating element and the electromagnetic coil is less than or equal to a preset distance, which is 10-15mm.

[0021] Furthermore, the controller is electrically connected to the electromagnetic coil;

[0022] The controller is used to determine the temperature difference based on the temperature of the pot wall and the temperature of the pot bottom; if the temperature difference is less than the preset temperature difference, the controller controls the electromagnetic coil to maintain its current operating current; if the temperature difference is not less than the preset temperature difference, the controller controls the operating current of the electromagnetic coil to gradually decrease until the electromagnetic coil stops working.

[0023] Furthermore, the width of the heat-conducting element is 5-10mm.

[0024] Furthermore, the distance between the heat-conducting element and the inner wall of the pot is 30%-50% of the pot wall thickness; the first temperature sensor is disposed on the heat-conducting element and is located close to the inner wall of the pot.

[0025] Implementing the embodiments of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] This invention connects one end of a heat-conducting component to a first heating element, allowing the heat from the first heating element to be rapidly conducted to a first temperature sensor component. Simultaneously, a second temperature sensor component is positioned on the second heating element, ensuring that the heating environments of the first and second temperature sensor components are nearly identical. The controller determines the reduction status of the sauce within the pot based on the temperature difference between the first and second temperature sensor components, thereby controlling the operating parameters of the induction cooker to achieve the desired reduction effect. Even if the optimal reduction height is higher than the highest point of the first heating element, the heat from the first heating element can still be conducted to the first temperature sensor component through the heat-conducting component, ensuring that the heating environments of the first and second temperature sensor components are nearly identical. This accurately controls the operating parameters of the induction cooker, achieving the desired reduction effect. This overcomes the limitation of the induction cooker's heating range on the automatic reduction effect, thus expanding the applicability of cookware used with induction cookers.

[0031] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion.

[0033] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention connects one end of a heat-conducting component to a first heating element, enabling rapid heat transfer from the first heating element to a first temperature sensor component. Simultaneously, a second temperature sensor component is positioned on the second heating element, ensuring that the heating environments of the first and second temperature sensor components are nearly identical. The controller determines the reduction status within the pot based on the temperature difference between the first and second temperature sensor components, thereby controlling the operating parameters of the induction cooker to achieve the desired reduction effect. Even if the optimal reduction height is higher than the highest point of the first heating element, the heat from the first heating element can still be transferred to the first temperature sensor component via the heat-conducting component, ensuring that the heating environments of the first and second temperature sensor components are nearly identical. This allows for accurate control of the induction cooker's operating parameters, achieving the desired reduction effect. This overcomes the limitation of the induction cooker's heating range on the automatic reduction effect, thus expanding the applicability of cookware used with induction cookers.

[0034] See appendix Figure 1 This embodiment provides a cooker for an induction cooker, comprising: a pot body 1, including a pot wall 11 and a pot bottom 12 connected to each other, a first heating element 13 surrounding the pot wall 11 circumferentially, and a second heating element 14 disposed on the pot bottom 12; a heat-conducting component 2, one end of which is connected to the first heating element 13; the height of the heat-conducting component 2 is higher than the height of the first heating element 13 along the height direction of the pot body 1; a second temperature sensor component 4 for collecting the temperature of the pot bottom 12, disposed on the second heating element 14; a first temperature sensor component 3 for collecting the temperature of the pot wall 11, disposed on the heat-conducting component 2; and a controller electrically connected to the first temperature sensor component 3 and the second temperature sensor component 4, the controller being used to control the operating parameters of the induction cooker according to the temperature of the pot wall 11 and the temperature of the pot bottom 12.

[0035] It should be noted that in this embodiment, one end of the heat-conducting component 2 is connected to the first heating element 13, so that the heat of the first heating element 13 is quickly conducted to the first temperature sensor component 3. At the same time, the second temperature sensor component 4 is set on the second heating element 14, so that the heating environment of the first temperature sensor component 3 and the second temperature sensor component 4 are nearly the same. The controller determines the sauce reduction situation in the pot body 11 by the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor component 3 and the second temperature sensor component 4, and then controls the operating parameters of the induction cooker to achieve the expected sauce reduction effect. Even if the optimal sauce reduction height is higher than the height of the highest position of the first heating element 13, the temperature of the first heating element 13 can still be conducted to the first temperature sensor component 3 through the heat-conducting component 2, so that the heating environment of the first temperature sensor component 3 and the second temperature sensor component 3 are nearly the same, accurately controlling the operating parameters of the induction cooker, and thus achieving the expected sauce reduction effect. This breaks the limitation of the heating range of the induction cooker on the automatic sauce reduction effect, thereby improving the applicability of cookware used in induction cookers.

[0036] It should also be noted that: the first temperature sensor 3 is set at the optimal reduction position; when the optimal reduction position is not reached, the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 changes very little; when the optimal reduction position is reached, the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 changes significantly; therefore, the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 is used to determine whether the optimal reduction position has been reached.

[0037] Specifically, a preset range is defined. If the temperature difference between the temperature collected by the first temperature sensor and the temperature collected by the second temperature sensor is within the preset range, it indicates that the optimal juicing position has not yet been reached; if it is not within the preset range, it indicates that the optimal juicing position has been reached or is below the optimal juicing position.

[0038] Specifically, the cookware for the induction cooker in this embodiment is a flat induction cooker.

[0039] Specifically, the first heating element 13 is a heating plate surrounding the pot wall 11, and the second heating element 14 is a heating plate disposed at the bottom of the pot 12.

[0040] In some possible embodiments, the heat-conducting component 2 includes at least one heat-conducting element; the at least one heat-conducting element is spaced apart on the pot wall 11; the first temperature sensor component 3 includes at least one first temperature sensor; at least one first temperature sensor is provided on each heat-conducting element; by spaced apart at least one heat-conducting element on the pot wall 11, the cookware for the induction cooker can be adapted to the optimal sauce-reducing height at different heights. Even if the optimal sauce-reducing height is higher than the highest position of the first heating element, heat can still be conducted to the first temperature sensor component 3 on it through the heat-conducting element, so that the heating environment of the first temperature sensor component 3 and the second temperature sensor component 4 are nearly consistent, thereby achieving the expected sauce-reducing effect.

[0041] In some other possible embodiments, the heat-conducting element is configured in a one-to-one correspondence with the first temperature sensor.

[0042] Specifically, the heat-conducting component is a heat-conducting rod.

[0043] In some possible embodiments, at least one heat-conducting element is staggered along the height of the pot body 1; this allows the first temperature sensor assembly 3 to perform temperature detection at any height, and ensures that the heating environment of the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 is nearly identical, so that the controller can accurately control the operating parameters of the induction cooker based on the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor 4, thereby achieving the expected sauce reduction effect and improving the compatibility range of cookware used with induction cookers.

[0044] In some other possible embodiments, at least two heat-conducting elements of the same height are provided on the pot wall 11. This can prevent the failure of one heat-conducting element to accurately conduct the temperature of the first heating element 13 to the first temperature sensor on it, thus preventing the failure to achieve the expected reduction effect. Through redundant arrangement, the temperature of the first heating element 13 can be accurately conducted to the first temperature sensor on it, thereby accurately obtaining the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor, thus ensuring the reduction effect.

[0045] In some possible embodiments, along the height direction of the pot body 1, the first temperature sensor is positioned above the first heating element 13. By positioning the first temperature sensor above the first heating element 13 and using a heat-conducting element corresponding to the first temperature sensor, the heating temperatures of the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor can be made approximately the same even if the first temperature sensor is not within the heating range of the induction cooker. This allows for accurate control of the operating parameters of the induction cooker, thereby achieving the desired reduction effect and breaking the limitation of the heating range of the induction cooker on the automatic reduction effect.

[0046] In some possible embodiments, the heat-conducting element is made of copper or silver. Copper or silver has a high thermal conductivity. By setting the material of the heat-conducting element to copper or silver, it can be ensured that the heat-conducting element can quickly conduct the temperature of the first heating element 13 to the first temperature sensor on the heat-conducting element, so that the temperature of the first temperature sensor is infinitely close to that of the first heating element 13, thereby achieving a heating environment that is close to the same as that of the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor.

[0047] In some possible embodiments, the cookware used for the induction cooker is made of aluminum.

[0048] In some possible embodiments, at least two first temperature sensors are provided on the heat-conducting element at the same height on the pot wall 11. By providing at least two first temperature sensors at the same height on the pot wall 11, it is possible to avoid the failure of one first temperature sensor to accurately obtain the temperature difference between the first and second temperature sensors, thus preventing the expected reduction effect from being achieved. Through redundant setting, it is possible to ensure that the temperature difference between the first and second temperature sensors is accurately obtained, thereby ensuring the reduction effect.

[0049] In some possible embodiments, the second temperature sensor assembly 3 includes at least one second temperature sensor.

[0050] Specifically, the second temperature sensor is located in the central area of ​​the second heating element 14 to ensure that the second temperature sensor accurately obtains the heating temperature of the second heating element 14. This avoids the second temperature sensor being located near the edge of the second heating element 14, which would cause the external temperature to affect the temperature collected by the second temperature sensor, resulting in an inconsistency between the heating environment of the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor, and thus affecting the final juice reduction effect.

[0051] Furthermore, the second temperature sensor assembly 3 includes two second temperature sensors, which can prevent the failure of one second temperature sensor to accurately obtain the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor when the second temperature sensor fails, thus preventing the expected juice reduction effect from being achieved. Through the redundant setting, the temperature of the first heating element 13 can be accurately transmitted to the first temperature sensor on it, thereby accurately obtaining the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor, thus ensuring the juice reduction effect.

[0052] In some possible embodiments, the induction cooker is equipped with an electromagnetic coil 5. The maximum vertical distance between the first heating element 13 and the electromagnetic coil 5 is less than or equal to a preset distance, which is 10-15mm. By limiting the distance between the electromagnetic coil 5 and the first heating element 13, it can be clearly determined that if the optimal reduction height is greater than the preset distance, the heating environment between the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor will be inconsistent, resulting in the inability to achieve automatic reduction. In this embodiment, by setting a heat-conducting component, the heat of the first heating element 13 is conducted to the first temperature sensor, so that the heating environment of the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 is nearly consistent, accurately controlling the operating parameters of the induction cooker, thereby achieving the expected reduction effect and breaking the limitation of the heating range of the induction cooker on the automatic reduction effect.

[0053] Specifically, the area of ​​the electromagnetic coil 5 is larger than the area of ​​the pot bottom 12, so that the electromagnetic coil 5 can fully heat the second heating element 14 set on the pot bottom 12.

[0054] Furthermore, the first heating element 13 is vertically projected along the height direction of the pot body 1. The projection of the first heating element 13 can be projected onto the electromagnetic coil 5, so that the electromagnetic coil 5 can fully heat the first heating element 13 arranged in the circumferential direction on the pot wall 11.

[0055] Specifically, the preset distances are 10-11mm, 10-12mm, 10-13mm, 12-13mm, 13-15mm, or 14-15mm, etc.

[0056] In some possible embodiments, the induction cooker is provided with an induction cooker panel 6, and along the height direction of the induction cooker, the pot body 1, the induction cooker panel 6 and the induction coil 5 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom.

[0057] In some possible embodiments, the controller is electrically connected to the electromagnetic coil 5; the controller is used to determine the temperature difference based on the temperature of the pot wall 11 and the temperature of the pot bottom 12; if the temperature difference is less than the preset temperature difference, the controller controls the electromagnetic coil 5 to maintain its current operating current; if the temperature difference is not less than the preset temperature difference, the controller controls the operating current of the electromagnetic coil 5 to gradually decrease until the electromagnetic coil 5 stops working; the controller controls the operation of the electromagnetic coil 5 according to the temperature difference, which can realize automated control and achieve the expected juice reduction effect automatically.

[0058] In some possible embodiments, the width of the heat-conducting element is 5-10mm. By limiting the width of the heat-conducting element, it is possible to avoid the heat-conducting element being too wide and thus affected by the external temperature; it is also possible to avoid the heat-conducting element being too narrow and thus unable to install the first temperature sensor.

[0059] Specifically, the width of the heat-conducting component is 5-6mm, 5-7mm, 5-8mm, 5-9mm, 5-10mm, 6-7mm, 6-8mm, 6-9mm, 6-10mm, 7-8mm, 7-9mm, 7-10mm, 8-10mm, or 9-10mm, etc.

[0060] In some possible embodiments, the distance between the heat-conducting element and the inner wall of the pot wall 11 is 30%-50% of the thickness of the pot wall 11; the first temperature sensor is disposed on the heat-conducting element and close to the inner wall of the pot wall 11, avoiding the heat-conducting element being close to the outer wall of the pot wall 11, which would cause the first temperature sensor on it to be affected by the external temperature, resulting in inconsistent heating environments for the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor, thus failing to achieve the expected reduction effect; by disposing the heat-conducting element close to the inner wall of the pot wall 11, the first temperature sensor disposed on it can more accurately obtain the temperature inside the pot 1, making the heating environment of the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor consistent, thereby achieving the expected reduction effect.

[0061] Specifically, the distance between the heat-conducting component and the inner wall of the pot wall 11 is 30%-40%, 30%-50%, 40%-50%, 35%-50%, or 45%-50% of the thickness of the pot wall 11.

[0062] In some possible embodiments, the first temperature sensor is attached to the heat-conducting element and disposed near the inner wall of the pot wall 11.

[0063] In some other possible embodiments, a notch is provided on the heat-conducting element, and a first temperature sensor is provided at the notch of the heat-conducting element, and is located near the inner side wall of the pot wall 11.

[0064] The working process of the cookware used in the induction cooker: The first temperature sensor, located at the optimal sauce reduction position, collects the temperature of the pot wall 11, and the second temperature sensor collects the temperature of the pot bottom; the controller determines the temperature difference based on the temperature of the pot wall 11 and the temperature of the pot bottom 12. If the temperature difference is within the preset range, the controller controls the electromagnetic disk 5 to maintain the current operation; if the temperature difference is not within the preset range, the controller controls the working current of the electromagnetic disk 5 to gradually decrease until the electromagnetic disk stops working.

[0065] Example 1

[0066] See appendix Figure 1 This embodiment provides a cookware for an induction cooker, wherein a pot body 11, an induction cooker panel 6, and an induction coil 5 are arranged sequentially along the height direction.

[0067] Specifically, the pot body 11 includes a pot wall 11 and a pot bottom 12 connected to each other, a first heating element 13 is arranged around the pot wall 11, and a second heating element 14 is arranged on the pot bottom 12.

[0068] Furthermore, a heat-conducting component 2 is provided on the side wall of the pot wall 11. The height of the heat-conducting component 2 is higher than the height of the first heating element 13. A first temperature sensor component 3 is provided on the heat-conducting component 2, and a second temperature sensor component 4 is provided on the second heating element 14.

[0069] Specifically, the first temperature sensor assembly 3 is used to collect the temperature of the pot wall 11, and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 is used to collect the temperature of the pot bottom 12; the controller is electrically connected to the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 respectively, and the controller is used to control the operating parameters of the induction cooker according to the temperature of the pot wall 11 and the temperature of the pot bottom 12.

[0070] Furthermore, the first temperature sensor 3 is set at the optimal reduction position; when the optimal reduction position is not reached, the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 changes very little; when the optimal reduction position is reached, the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 changes significantly; therefore, the temperature difference between the first temperature sensor assembly 3 and the second temperature sensor assembly 4 is used to determine whether the optimal reduction position has been reached.

[0071] Specifically, a preset range is defined. If the temperature difference between the temperature collected by the first temperature sensor and the temperature collected by the second temperature sensor is within the preset range, it indicates that the optimal juicing position has not yet been reached; if it is not within the preset range, it indicates that the optimal juicing position has been reached or is below the optimal juicing position.

[0072] Specifically, the cookware for the induction cooker in this embodiment is a flat induction cooker.

[0073] Specifically, the first heating element 13 is a heating plate surrounding the pot wall 11, and the second heating element 14 is a heating plate disposed at the bottom of the pot 12.

[0074] In some possible embodiments, the heat-conducting assembly 2 includes at least one heat-conducting element; the at least one heat-conducting element is spaced apart on the pot wall 11; the first temperature sensor assembly 3 includes at least one first temperature sensor; at least one first temperature sensor is disposed on each heat-conducting element.

[0075] Specifically, the heat-conducting component is a heat-conducting rod.

[0076] Furthermore, the heat-conducting components are made of copper or silver, while the cookware used in induction cooktops is made of aluminum.

[0077] In some possible implementations, the width of the heat-conducting element is 5-10mm. By limiting the width of the heat-conducting element, it is possible to avoid the heat-conducting element being too wide and thus affected by the external temperature; it is also possible to avoid the heat-conducting element being too narrow and thus unable to install the first temperature sensor.

[0078] In some possible implementations, the distance between the heat-conducting element and the inner wall of the pot wall 11 is 30%-50% of the thickness of the pot wall 11; the first temperature sensor is disposed on the heat-conducting element and is disposed close to the inner wall of the pot wall 11.

[0079] In some possible implementations, the first temperature sensor is attached to the heat-conducting element and disposed near the inner wall of the pot wall 11.

[0080] In some other possible implementations, a notch is provided on the heat-conducting element, and a first temperature sensor is provided at the notch of the heat-conducting element, and is located near the inner side wall of the pot wall 11.

[0081] Specifically, at least one heat-conducting element is staggered at intervals along the height direction of the pot body 1.

[0082] Furthermore, along the height direction of the pot body 1, the first temperature sensor is positioned above the first heating element 13.

[0083] In some possible implementations, at least two first temperature sensors are provided on the heat-conducting element at the same height on the pot wall 11.

[0084] In some possible implementations, the induction cooker is equipped with an electromagnetic coil 5, and the maximum vertical distance between the first heating element 13 and the electromagnetic coil 5 is less than or equal to a preset distance, which is 13mm.

[0085] Specifically, the area of ​​the electromagnetic coil 5 is larger than the area of ​​the pot bottom 12, so that the electromagnetic coil 5 can fully heat the second heating element 14 set on the pot bottom 12.

[0086] Furthermore, the first heating element 13 is vertically projected along the height direction of the pot body 1. The projection of the first heating element 13 can be projected onto the electromagnetic coil 5, so that the electromagnetic coil 5 can fully heat the first heating element 13 arranged in the circumferential direction on the pot wall 11.

[0087] In some possible embodiments, the controller is electrically connected to the electromagnetic coil 5; the controller is used to determine the temperature difference based on the temperature of the pot wall 11 and the temperature of the pot bottom 12; if the temperature difference is less than the preset temperature difference, the controller controls the electromagnetic coil 5 to maintain its current operating current; if the temperature difference is not less than the preset temperature difference, the controller controls the electromagnetic coil 5 to gradually reduce the operating current until the electromagnetic coil 5 stops working.
