Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of induction cookers, in particular to an induction cooker control circuit and an induction cooker. Background Art

[0002] The induction cooker is based on the phenomenon of electromagnetic induction. It uses alternating current to pass through a coil to generate an alternating magnetic field with a constantly changing direction. Eddy current will appear inside the conductor in the alternating magnetic field. The Joule heating effect of the eddy current will cause the conductor to heat up, thereby achieving heating.

[0003] However, in the actual use of the induction cooker, when cooking ingredients by stewing, the boiling soup may overflow from the pot due to the high temperature of the cooking ingredients, which is prone to safety hazards. The high temperature of the stove panel will quickly dry and solidify the soup, forming dirt that is difficult to be contaminated. Usually, after the induction cooker is used, the power supply cannot be disconnected immediately. The power supply needs to be maintained connected, and a cooling fan is provided to dissipate the residual heat inside the induction cooker, otherwise its life will be affected. In view of this, we propose an induction cooker control circuit and an induction cooker. Utility Model Content

The control module intelligently controls the start of the fan in the heat dissipation module to cool down the temperature. When the temperature drops to a specified temperature, the heat dissipation module automatically stops, thereby reducing power consumption while ensuring the service life of the equipment.

[0021] Preferably, the battery is connected to a power source, and the battery is connected to a heat dissipation module. The electric energy stored in the battery is used to provide electric energy to the heat dissipation module when the power is disconnected. By setting the battery, the fan in the heat dissipation module can be provided with electric energy when the power is disconnected, so as to achieve the purpose of delayed shutdown.

The control module is used to receive the temperature sensing module and the temperature sensing module detection information, the heating module and the heat dissipation module. The water sensing module is connected to the control module, and the control module is connected to the heating module. The water sensing module is used to judge whether there is liquid on the stove panel, and the control module is used to intelligently control The control module controls whether the heating module reduces the output power. The water sensing module is an infrared scattering rain sensor. When there is liquid on the outer surface of the furnace panel, the light incident on the furnace panel is partially scattered, and the light of the receiving tube becomes less after reflection. The larger the amount of liquid, the less light is reflected back. By comparing the received light intensity with the windshield when it is dry, it can be concluded whether there is liquid on the furnace panel at this time. A request for cooling is sent to the control module to control the heating module to reduce the output power to avoid the soup in the pot from continuously scattering to the top of the induction cooker due to high temperature, which is prone to safety hazards. The high-frequency output module and the control module are used to control the output power. They are divided into intelligent control and manual control to facilitate the operation of the manually controlled touch panel to control the cooking method and output power. The conversion module is connected to the power supply, the conversion module is connected to the high-frequency output module, and the heating module is connected to the high-frequency output module to convert current into heat for cooking.

When the eddy currents overcome the internal resistance of the pot body and flow, the conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy is completed. The generated Joule heat is the heat source for cooking. The water sensing module is an infrared scattering rain sensor.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, the temperature sensing module is connected to the control module, and the control module is connected to the heat dissipation module. The temperature sensing module is used to collect temperature information of the induction cooker and feed it back to the control module. The control module intelligently controls the start or stop of the heat dissipation module. The temperature in the induction cooker is collected by the electronic thermometer in the temperature sensing module. The control module intelligently controls the start of the fan in the heat dissipation module to cool down. When the temperature drops to a specified temperature, the heat dissipation module automatically stops to reduce power consumption while ensuring the service life of the equipment. The battery is connected to the power supply, and the battery is connected to the heat dissipation module. The electric energy stored in the battery is used to provide electric energy for the heat dissipation module when the power is disconnected. By setting the battery, the fan in the heat dissipation module can be provided with electric energy when the power is disconnected to achieve delay. The purpose of shutdown is to avoid the situation where the residual heat in the induction cooker cannot be dissipated in time due to the fan stopping due to cutting off the power supply, which affects the service life of the equipment. The protection module is set on the line line of the input and output current on the power supply, and is used to cut off the current when the circuit current is abnormal. Overload protection: when the current in the circuit exceeds the rated current of the fuse in the protection module, the fuse will automatically blow to protect the circuit from being damaged by current overload. Short circuit protection: when a short circuit occurs in the circuit, the fuse will quickly and automatically disconnect the circuit to prevent the circuit from being damaged due to the fault, thereby isolating the faulty part. When a short circuit fault occurs in the power system, the fuse can separate the affected part of the fault in time to protect other equipment from the impact of the short circuit fault, thereby protecting the safe operation of the circuit.

[0034] In this embodiment, the temperature inside the induction cooker is collected by the electronic thermometer in the temperature sensing module, and the control module intelligently controls the fan in the heat dissipation module to start for cooling. When the temperature drops to a specified temperature, the heat dissipation module automatically stops, thereby reducing power consumption while ensuring the service life of the equipment. In addition, a battery is provided to provide power for the fan in the heat dissipation module when the power is disconnected, so as to achieve the purpose of delayed shutdown, thereby avoiding the situation where the residual heat in the induction cooker cannot be dissipated in time due to the fan stopping due to power cut-off, thereby affecting the service life of the equipment.

[0035] When the induction cooker control circuit and the induction cooker of the utility model are in use, the alternating current is converted into direct current by the rectifier in the conversion module, and then the direct current is converted into high-frequency alternating current exceeding the audio frequency by the transformer in the high-frequency output module. The high-frequency alternating current is applied to the flat hollow spiral induction heating coil in the heating module, thereby generating a high-frequency alternating magnetic field, whose magnetic lines of force penetrate the ceramic table of the stove and act on the metal pot. Strong eddy currents are generated in the cooking pot body due to electromagnetic induction. When the eddy currents overcome the internal resistance of the pot body and flow, the conversion of electrical energy into thermal energy is completed. The generated Joule heat is the heat source for cooking. The water sensing module is an infrared scattering rain sensor. When there is liquid on the outer surface of the stove panel, the light incident on the stove panel is partially scattered, and the light of the receiving tube after reflection is The amount of liquid increases, the less light is reflected back. By comparing the light intensity received when the windshield is dry, it can be concluded whether there is liquid on the stove panel at this time, and a cooling request is sent to the control module to control the heating module to reduce the output power. The temperature in the induction cooker is collected through the electronic thermometer in the temperature sensing module, and the control module intelligently controls the fan in the heat dissipation module to start and cool down. When the temperature drops to the specified temperature, the heat dissipation module automatically stops to reduce power consumption while ensuring the service life of the equipment. The battery can be set to provide power for the fan in the heat dissipation module when the power is disconnected, so as to achieve the purpose of delayed shutdown, so as to avoid the residual heat in the induction cooker from being unable to be dissipated in time due to the fan stopping when the power is cut off.
