[0045] The roasting chamber (120) may be formed in a cylindrical shape that extends in a vertical direction, and a fixed wing (122) may be formed on the inner surface of the roasting chamber (120) to facilitate smoother stirring of the object. The fixed wing (122) is formed protruding from the inner surface of the roasting chamber (120), and the protruding height of the fixed wing (122) is formed in a shape that increases from the bottom to the top of the roasting chamber (120).

[0046] The discharge unit (150) may include a door portion (not shown) that is opened or closed by an operation signal from a control unit (not shown), and a lever portion (not shown) for a user to forcibly open the door portion in an emergency situation regardless of the control signal from the control unit. The discharge unit (150) is formed to extend in an inclined manner toward the object storage unit (400), so that when the door portion of the discharge unit (150) is opened, the roasted objects can be supplied toward the object storage unit (400).

[0047] And, the stirring blade units (181) of the rotary stirring unit (180) are rotated around a stirring axis formed in a vertical direction. Accordingly, the roasting chamber unit (100) according to the present embodiment is formed in a vertically extended state, and the stirring blade units (181) of the rotary stirring unit (180) are rotated around a stirring axis formed in a vertical direction to stir the object, thereby having the advantage of roasting the object more efficiently and allowing the roasting device (1) to be arranged more efficiently.

[0048] Meanwhile, the heat source unit (310, 320, 330) includes a first heat source unit (310) that provides convective heat inside the roasting chamber (120) by providing hot air flow to the roasting chamber (120), a third heat source unit (320) that contacts the surface of the roasting chamber (120) and provides conductive heat to the roasting chamber (120) by conduction, and a third heat source unit (320) that provides radiant heat inside the roasting chamber (120).

[0049] The first heat source unit (310) includes a flow pipe (311) through which air flows, and a heating unit (312) disposed on one side of the flow pipe (311) to heat the flowing air. The flow pipe (311) is connected to a blow unit (313) for supplying air, and air is supplied through it, and one side of the heating unit (312) and the flow pipe (311) is connected to an upper unit (110). For example, the heating unit (312) has a plurality of heating elements arranged in a mesh or coil form, and the heating elements are heated as air passes through them.

[0050] The second heat source unit (330) includes a second heat source unit body that surrounds the outer surface of the roasting chamber (120) while in contact with the outer surface of the roasting chamber (120), and the second heat source unit body may be a band heater formed of a ceramic material.

[0051] Meanwhile, at least one through hole on the roasting chamber side that communicates with the outside is formed in the roasting chamber (120), and a through hole on the second heat source body side is formed in the second heat source body side at a position corresponding to the through hole on the roasting chamber side.

Meanwhile, an air outlet (163) communicating with the internal space of the roasting chamber (120) is formed on the upper side of the roasting chamber (120), and the second heat source part (330) is not placed on the side of the air outlet (163). That is, the second heat source (330) is installed only up to a height of part of the outer surface of the roasting chamber (120), and the height up to which the second heat source (330) is installed can be defined as the limit line for accommodating objects to be accommodated in the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120).

[0053] Dust (shells, etc.) generated from the object during the roasting process is transferred to a dust collection unit (600) through an air outlet (163), and the dust collection unit (600) allows air to be discharged to the outside and allows the dust to be stored in an internal dust storage (not shown).

[0054] The third heat source unit (320) includes a lamp unit (321) that emits radiant heat and is installed in the upper unit (110) to provide radiant heat to the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120). For example, the lamp unit (321) may be a halogen lamp.

[0055] Meanwhile, the upper unit (110) includes an upper unit body (111) formed in a circular shape, and the upper unit body (111) has a heating unit (312) of the first heat source unit (310) fixed therein and a first heat source placement hole (113) that allows heated air to flow into the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120), a third heat source placement hole (114) that allows the lamp unit (321) of the third heat source unit (320) fixed therein so that the radiant heat emitted from the lamp unit (321) is transferred into the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120), and a target supply hole (112) that is connected to the hopper unit (170) of the roasting device (1) so that a target is introduced into the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120). Additionally, a diffuser section (118) is formed on the lower side of the upper unit (110) to guide hot air supplied from the first heat source section (310), with the diameter increasing as it goes downward. The diffuser section (118) is formed to extend from the lower surface of the upper unit (110) to the side of the rotary stirring section (180) positioned on the lower side of the roasting chamber (120), and a recessed groove (not shown) may be formed in the stirring blade unit (181) of the rotary stirring section (180) to avoid interference with the diffuser section (118).

[0056] At this time, the lamp unit (331) and the third heat source placement hole (114) of the third heat source section (320) are provided as a pair, and a first heat source placement hole (113) is placed between the pair of third heat source placement holes (114). Furthermore, the first heat source placement hole (113), which is placed in the center of the upper unit body (111), is formed in a circular shape, and the third heat source placement hole (114) is formed in a rectangular shape. Meanwhile, in the upper unit body (111) according to the present embodiment, a third heat source guide section (119) is formed that surrounds the third heat source placement hole (114) and extends downward, and the cross-section of the third heat source guide section (119) is formed in a rectangular shape corresponding to the third heat source placement hole (114). By means of the third heat source guide (119), dust generated from the object during the roasting process of the roasting chamber (120) can be prevented from contaminating the surface of the lamp unit (321) of the third heat source (320).

[0057] Meanwhile, the roasting device (1) according to the present embodiment further includes measuring units (510, 520, 530, 540) for measuring the heat source supply temperature of heat source parts (310, 320, 330) supplied to the roasting chamber (120).

[0058] The radiation temperature measuring unit (510) measures the radiation temperature of an object contained in the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) and is positioned on the upper unit (110) placed above the roasting chamber (120) and faces toward the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120). At this time, a measuring hole (115) that penetrates in the vertical direction is formed in the upper unit body (111). The measuring hole (115) is located at an eccentric position from the center of the upper unit body (111). The radiation temperature measuring unit (510) according to the present embodiment detects the temperature change of the object during the roasting process by detecting infrared rays emitted from the surface of the object. Therefore, compared to a conventional roasting device that detects only the temperature change inside the roasting chamber (120), the roasting device (1) according to the embodiment of the present invention has the advantage of accurately detecting the temperature of the object and accurately performing the roasting intended by the user. In the process of performing a preheating operation to preheat the roasting chamber (120) before the above object is introduced into the interior of the roasting chamber (120), the radiation temperature measuring unit (510) can detect the surface temperature of the lower unit (130) forming the bottom surface of the roasting chamber (120).

[0059] Meanwhile, regarding the installation location of the radiation temperature measuring unit (510) according to the present embodiment, a number of experiments were conducted as follows. In the present embodiment, the radiation temperature measuring unit (510) was installed in the optimal installation location, which is the direction facing downward from the upper unit (110), that is, the direction facing the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) from the upper unit (110).

[0063] Referring to FIGS. 8 and 9, the radiation temperature measuring unit (510) includes a sensing unit (511) for measuring temperature, a filter unit (514) disposed in front of the sensing unit (511) through which light of a preset wavelength band passes, a first bracket (513) fixed to the upper unit body (111) of the roasting unit (100) and having a first through hole (519) formed inside, a second bracket (521) fixed with one side in contact with the first bracket (513) and having a second through hole (526) formed to which the sensing unit (511) is fitted and aligned with the first through hole (519), and a substrate (512) on which the sensing unit (511) is mounted and fixed to the other side of the second bracket (521).

[0064] At this time, the sensing part (511), the first through hole (519), the second through hole (526), ​​and the filter part (514) are aligned with the measurement hole (115) of the upper unit (110), and the filter part (514) is installed between the first bracket (513) and the second bracket (521).

That is, with the filter section (514) sealing the first through hole (519), the first bracket (513) and the second bracket (521) are firmly fixed to each other with the filter section (514) in between, thereby preventing foreign substances in the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) from entering the side of the radiation temperature measuring unit (510) and the outside through the first through hole (519) which communicates with the measuring hole (115) of the roasting chamber (120). Meanwhile, an elastic member (not shown) made of rubber or silicone material is disposed between the filter section (514) and the first bracket (513) and between the filter section (514) and the second bracket (521), thereby firmly sealing the space between them and suppressing damage to the filter section (514).

That is, the radiation temperature measuring unit (510) according to the present embodiment can measure the radiation temperature of the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) and the temperature of the external space of the roasting chamber (120).

[0072] In addition, a cylindrical guide portion (116) is formed on the lower surface of the upper unit (110) and protrudes downward while surrounding the measurement hole (115), and the guide portion (116) is aligned with the measurement hole (115). That is, as the guide portion (116) surrounding the measurement hole (115) is formed to protrude toward the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120), dust generated during the roasting process in the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) can be suppressed from entering toward the measurement hole (115) and contaminating the surface of the filter portion (514). The sensing portion (511) can irradiate light for measurement onto the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) through the measurement hole (115) surrounded by the guide portion (116), or receive light emitted from the object.

[0073] Referring again to FIGS. 3 to 7, the measuring unit (510, 530, 540, 550) of the roasting device (1) according to the present embodiment further includes a convection temperature measuring unit (530) for measuring the convection temperature of the hot air supplied to the roasting chamber (120) by the first heat source unit (310) and disposed on the flow path of the hot air, a conduction temperature measuring unit (540) for measuring the conduction temperature of the second heat source unit (330) by having a conduction temperature measuring probe (541) disposed between the second heat source unit (330) and the outer surface of the roasting chamber (120), and a contact temperature measuring unit (550) installed on the lower side of the roasting chamber (120) and in direct contact with the object during the roasting process to measure the temperature of the object.

[0075] And, the conduction temperature measuring probe (541) of the conduction temperature measuring unit (530) is positioned between the second heat source unit (330) and the roasting chamber (120) and simultaneously contacts the inner surface of the second heat source unit body (331) and the outer surface of the roasting chamber (120). At this time, the conduction temperature measuring probe (541) of the conduction temperature measuring unit (540) is positioned at the location furthest apart from the through hole on the roasting chamber side and the through hole on the second heat source unit body side. That is, the through hole on the roasting chamber side and the through hole on the body side of the second heat source unit are connected to the outside, and since the heating element of the second heat source unit (330) is not placed at the location, the conduction temperature measuring probe (541) of the conduction temperature measuring unit (540) is placed at the location furthest apart from the through hole on the roasting chamber side and the through hole on the body side of the second heat source unit, where the measurement temperature is formed relatively high, and the conduction temperature is measured based on the highest temperature.

The roasting device (1) according to the present embodiment has the advantage of being able to raise the temperature of the internal space (121) to a desired preheating temperature more quickly by using three heat sources in combination to perform the preheating operation. In addition, after the preheating operation is completed, the roasting device (1) according to the present embodiment controls the three heat sources differently according to the user's preference so that roasting with the flavor desired by the user can be achieved.

At this time, the second preheating temperature (T2) according to the present embodiment may be the conductive temperature of the second heat source unit (330) measured by the conductive temperature measuring unit (540), and in the second heat source temperature maintenance operation step (S160), a lower level of power than in the second heat source preheating operation step (S140) is supplied to the second heat source unit (330).

[0084] And, the measured second preheating temperature (T2) is the second reference temperature (T ref2 If it is smaller than ) (S150), the second heat source preheating operation step (S140) is repeated.

[0085] Next, a third heat source preheating operation step (S170) is performed in which the third heat source unit (320) provides radiant heat to the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120).

[0086] In the third heat source preheating operation step (S170), the measured third preheating temperature (T3) is greater than or equal to the third reference temperature (T ref3 In the case where ) (S190), the third heat source unit (320) is at the third reference temperature (T3) and the third preheating temperature (T3) is at the third reference temperature (T ref3A third heat source temperature maintenance operation step (S190) is performed to provide radiant heat so as to be maintained at ). At this time, the third preheating temperature (T3) according to the present embodiment may be the radiant temperature of the external space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) measured by the radiant temperature measuring unit (510), and in the third heat source temperature maintenance operation step (S190), a lower level of power than in the third heat source preheating operation step (S170) is supplied to the third heat source unit (320).

[0087] And, the measured third preheating temperature (T3) is the third reference temperature (T ref3 If it is smaller than ) (S180), the third heat source preheating operation step (S170) is repeated.

[0088] Next, the fourth preheating temperature (T4), which is the measured temperature outside the roasting chamber (120), is the fourth reference temperature (T ref4 If the temperature rises to (S200), the preheating operation is terminated.

[0089] And, the measured fourth preheating temperature (T4) is the fourth reference temperature (T ref4 If it is smaller than ) (S200), the third heat source temperature maintenance operation (S190) is repeated. At this time, the first heat source temperature maintenance operation step (S130) and the second heat source temperature maintenance operation step (S160) are also continued to be performed.

[0090] That is, the measurement locations of the first preheating temperature (T1), the second preheating temperature (T2), the third preheating temperature (T3), and the fourth preheating temperature (T4) according to the present embodiment are formed differently from each other, and the first preheating temperature (T1), the second preheating temperature (T2), and the third preheating temperature (T3) are the convection temperature, conduction temperature, and radiation temperature of heat transferred from the first heat source unit (310), the second heat source unit (330), and the third heat source unit (320), and the fourth preheating temperature (T4) is the temperature of the external space adjacent to the roasting chamber (120), and is a temperature that can estimate the temperature of the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120).

[0091] According to the proposed embodiment, a roasting device with improved productivity and a method for controlling the same can be provided by reducing the roasting preheating operation time.

[0092] In addition, the roasting process of the object can be measured more effectively, allowing the user to achieve the desired roasting.

[0093] FIG. 11 is a drawing showing the internal configuration of a roasting device according to another embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 12 is a drawing showing a cross-section of the radiation temperature measuring unit of FIG. 11, and FIG. 13 is a drawing showing the configuration of the radiation temperature measuring unit of FIG. 11.

[0094] This embodiment differs only in the configuration of the radiation temperature measuring unit and the method of correcting the radiation temperature measurement results; however, in other aspects, it is substantially identical to the configuration of the roasting device illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 10. Therefore, the following description will focus on the characteristic parts of this embodiment.

[0095] Referring to FIGS. 11 to 13, a roasting device (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a cylindrical roasting chamber (120) formed to extend in an upward and downward direction in which an object is stirred, and a rotating stirring unit (180) that rotates to stir the object contained in the roasting chamber (120). The rotating stirring unit (180) comprises a roasting chamber section (100) that rotates around a stirring axis formed in a vertical direction, and a heat source section comprising a first heat source section (310) that supplies heat to the roasting chamber section (100) and provides hot air to the roasting chamber section (100) to provide convective heat inside the roasting chamber. Furthermore, the roasting device (1) comprises a radiation temperature measuring unit (560) that measures the temperature of the roasting chamber (120) or the object based on infrared rays emitted from the inner surface of the roasting chamber (120) or the surface of the object heated by the heat source section. The radiation temperature measuring unit (560) is positioned on an upper unit (110) positioned above the roasting chamber (120) and faces toward the internal space of the roasting chamber (120). A measuring hole (115) is formed through the upper unit (110) and communicates with the roasting chamber (120).

[0096] In addition, a cylindrical guide portion (116) is formed on the lower surface of the upper unit (110) and protrudes downward while surrounding the measurement hole (115), and the guide portion (116) is aligned with the measurement hole (115). That is, as the guide portion (116) surrounding the measurement hole (115) is formed to protrude toward the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120), dust generated during the roasting process in the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) can be suppressed from entering toward the measurement hole (115) and contaminating the surface of the filter portion (514). The sensing portion (511) can irradiate light for measurement onto the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) through the measurement hole (115) surrounded by the guide portion (116), or receive light emitted from the object.

[0097] The first heat source unit (310) includes a flow pipe (311) through which air flows, and a heating unit (312) disposed on one side of the flow pipe (311) to heat the flowing air (see FIG. 5 and FIG. 7). The flow pipe (311) is connected to a blow unit (313) for supplying air, and air is supplied, and one side of the heating unit (312) and the flow pipe (311) is connected to an upper unit (110). For example, the heating unit (312) has a plurality of heating elements arranged in a mesh or coil form, and the heating elements are heated as air passes through them.

[0098] The radiation temperature measuring unit (560) includes a sensing unit (561) that measures the temperature of an object based on infrared rays, a measuring unit body (565) that is positioned on the upper surface of the upper unit (110) and has a body-side through hole (566) formed therein that communicates with the roasting chamber (120), a substrate (562) that is positioned on one side of the measuring unit body (565) and on which the sensing unit (561) is mounted, and a filter unit (564) that is positioned in front of the sensing unit (561) and through which light of a preset wavelength band passes. The sensing unit (561) may be formed in a columnar shape, more specifically in a cylindrical shape.

[0099] A substrate (562) is placed in an external space of a roasting chamber (120) and includes an external space temperature measuring unit (not shown) for measuring the temperature of the external space. The external space is placed between a casing (190) (see FIG. 1) and the roasting chamber (120). A connection terminal (568) for transmitting temperature measurement data is formed on the upper surface of the substrate (562), and the substrate (562) is fixed to a measuring unit body (565) by a first fastening member (581) that penetrates the substrate (562) and a washer member (582).

[0100] The measuring unit body (565) may be formed as a single body as an example, and a fastening hole is formed in the measuring unit body (565) that penetrates through the upper surface to the lower surface. Then, the measuring unit body (565) is fixed to the upper surface of the upper unit (110) by means of a second fastening member (583) inserted into the fastening hole.

[0101] The body-side through hole (566) is connected to the measurement hole (115) of the upper unit (110), and a sensing part (561) and a filter part (564) are located in the body-side through hole (566). At this time, one side of the filter part (564) faces the sensing part (561), and the other side faces the roasting chamber (120) directly.

[0102] In the measuring unit body (565), a ventilation hole (567) is formed in a direction intersecting with the direction in which the body-side through hole (566) is formed, and the body-side through hole (566) and the ventilation hole (567) intersect each other. At this time, the filter part (564) is spaced apart from the roasting chamber (120) with the ventilation hole (567) in between.

[0103] A roasting device (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention further includes a ventilation section (570) which is connected to a flow pipe (311) on one side and connected to a ventilation hole (567) on the other side. The air flow flowing into the ventilation hole (567) through the ventilation section (570) is formed on the back side (the side facing the roasting chamber (120)) of the filter section (564).

[0104] That is, dust generated during the roasting process is suppressed from entering the measurement hole (115) by the guide section (116), and if dust enters the measurement hole (115), the dust is removed by the airflow flowing from the ventilation section (570) to the back side of the filter section (564), thereby minimizing contamination of the filter section (564). In addition, the airflow generated from the ventilation section (570) to the measurement hole (115) is formed to the internal space (121) of the roasting chamber (120) through the guide section (116), thereby minimizing the inflow of dust into the measurement hole (115) through the guide section (116).

[0105] In addition, by means of a ventilation unit (570) that forms an airflow from the side of the filter unit (564) to the outside of the guide unit (116), the formation of negative pressure from the outside of the guide unit (116) to the inside of the guide unit (116) is suppressed, thereby preventing dust generated during the roasting process from entering the side of the filter unit (564).

[0106] Meanwhile, the ventilation unit (570) includes a pipe unit (575) that is in communication with the flow pipe (311) on one side, and a plug unit (571) that is connected to the other side of the pipe unit (575) on one side and connected to the ventilation hole (567) on the other side.

[0107] The plug unit (571) is formed in a bent shape, and a plug portion (573) that is inserted into a ventilation hole is formed on the other side of the plug unit (571).

[0108] The ventilation hole (567) completely penetrates one side and the other side of the measuring unit body (565), and a shielding means (584) for shielding the ventilation hole (567) from the outside is installed on the other side of the ventilation hole (567). As the ventilation hole (567) is formed to completely penetrate, maintenance such as cleaning of the radiation temperature measuring unit (560) can be easily performed.

[0109] Meanwhile, the filter section (564) of the radiation temperature measuring unit (560) is formed such that the emissivity, which is the amount of energy emitted from the surface of an object during thermal radiation, varies depending on the temperature. That is, the amount of light energy emitted from the roasting chamber (120) or the object may vary depending on the temperature conditions of the filter section (564), so the measured temperature (T) of the sensing section (561) that receives infrared rays passing through the filter section (564) measure It is necessary to correct ).

[0110] Accordingly, the roasting device (1) according to the present embodiment has a roasting chamber (120) or a measured temperature (T) of the object measured by a radiation temperature measuring unit (560). measure ) is the external temperature (T) of the roasting chamber (120). outside Corrected based on ) the actual temperature (T) of the roasting chamber or the object real The roasting device (1) calculates the actual temperature (T) by receiving data from the temperature measuring unit and controlling the heat source unit (510, 520, 530, 540). real It may further include a control unit (not shown) that calculates ).

[0111] At this time, the actual temperature (T real ) is the above measured temperature (T measure At the above external temperature (T outside It is calculated by considering the change in emissivity of the filter section based on ).

[0112] Therefore, the actual temperature (T real ) and the above measured temperature (T measure ) satisfies the following relationship.

[0114]

[0115] T real,k is the corrected actual temperature of the object (based on absolute temperature)

[0116] T measure,k is the measured temperature of the object measured by the sensing unit (based on absolute temperature)

[0117] Toutside,c is the external temperature of the roasting chamber (based on Celsius),

[0118] T outside,k is the external temperature of the roasting chamber (based on absolute temperature),

[0119] E0 is the emissivity of the filter section at 0 degrees Celsius,

[0120] e is the change in emissivity per 1 degree of absolute temperature (or 1 degree of Celsius) of the filter section.

[0122] That is, the roasting device (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention has the advantage of being able to measure the temperature more accurately and quickly by measuring infrared rays emitted from the roasting chamber (120) or the surface of the object and measuring the temperature of the roasting chamber (120) or the object.

[0123] In addition, there is an advantage in that more accurate temperature measurement is possible by compensating for changes in the emissivity of the filter section that occur depending on temperature conditions.

[0125] FIG. 14 is a drawing showing the internal configuration of a roasting device according to another embodiment of the present invention.

[0126] This embodiment differs only in the configuration for controlling the preheating operation of the roasting device by measuring the temperature of the space outside the chamber of the roasting device, but in other configurations, it is substantially the same as the configuration of the roasting device illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 13; therefore, the following description will focus on the characteristic parts of this embodiment.

[0128] Measured temperature inside the roasting chamber (T measure When the roasting device (1) determines whether the preheating operation has ended by determining only whether the temperature reaches the internal temperature of the reference chamber, the external space temperature (T) of the chamber outside If the temperature is excessively low or high, a problem arises in which the roasting quality deteriorates due to unintended heat transfer between the roasting chamber (121) and the space outside the chamber (160) during the roasting process after the preheating is finished.

[0129] Accordingly, the roasting device (1) according to the present embodiment has, based on infrared rays emitted from the inner surface of the roasting chamber part (120) heated by the heat source part (310, 320, 330) or the surface of the object, the temperature of the roasting chamber (120) or the object and the temperature of the chamber outside space (160) between the casing unit (190) and the roasting chamber part (120) of the chamber outside space (T outside It includes a radiation temperature measuring unit (560) for measuring ) and the chamber external space temperature (T) of the chamber external space (160). outside The determination of whether the preheating operation is terminated is also taken into account whether the external space temperature of the reference chamber has been reached. At this time, the external space temperature of the reference chamber is formed in the range of 55 degrees Celsius to 90 degrees Celsius.

[0130] The radiation temperature measuring unit (156) includes a sensing unit that measures the temperature of an object based on infrared rays and faces the roasting chamber, an external space temperature measuring unit for measuring the temperature of the external space outside the chamber, and a substrate on which the sensing unit and the external space temperature measuring unit are mounted.

[0132] The radiant heat source (320) is installed in the upper unit (110) while positioned inside the roasting chamber (121), and a through hole is formed in the upper unit (110) to allow a portion of the light emitted from the radiant heat source (320) to leak to the chamber outside space (160). That is, the light emitted from the radiant heat source (320) is transmitted to the roasting chamber (121) to heat the roasting chamber (121) and / or the object, and a portion of the light may leak directly from the radiant heat source (320) to the chamber outside space (160) through the through hole, or may be reflected inside the roasting chamber (121) and leak to the chamber outside space (160) through the through hole. The chamber outside space (160) may be heated by the leaked light. In addition, heat can be transferred from the upper unit (110), which is heated together by the heat supplied to the roasting chamber (121), to the chamber outside space (160).

[0133] Hereinafter, a control method for a roasting device (1) according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

[0134] Figure 15 is a diagram showing a control method for the roasting device of Figure 14.

[0135] Referring to FIG. 15, a roasting preheating operation initiation step (S310) is first performed to preheat the roasting chamber (121) of the roasting device (1).

[0136] Next, a step (S320) for determining whether the preheating condition is satisfied is performed to determine whether the preheating state of the roasting chamber (121) satisfies the preheating condition. At this time, the preheating condition is the measured temperature (T) of the roasting chamber (120) according to preset temperature profile information. measure Whether ) has reached the above-mentioned internal reference temperature and the chamber external space temperature (T outside ) may be whether the external space temperature of the above reference chamber has been reached.

[0137] In the step of determining whether the preheating condition is satisfied (S320), the roasting device (1) determines the measured temperature (T) of the roasting chamber (120) according to the temperature profile information. measure Whether ) has reached the above-mentioned internal temperature and the temperature of the chamber outside space (T) of the roasting chamber (120). outside ) determines whether the external space temperature of the above reference chamber has been reached.

[0138] In the step of determining whether the preheating condition is satisfied (S320), if the preheating state of the roasting chamber (121) satisfies the preheating condition, a roasting operation initiation step (S320) is performed to initiate the roasting operation. Meanwhile, in the step of determining whether the preheating condition is satisfied (S320), if the preheating state of the roasting chamber (121) does not satisfy the preheating condition, a roasting preheating operation (S310) is performed.

[0139] Next, a roasting termination determination step (S340) is performed to determine whether the roasting is finished.

[0140] Next, an additional roasting proceeding determination step (S350) is performed to determine whether to proceed with additional roasting. If it is determined in the additional roasting proceeding determination step (S350) that additional roasting is to be performed, a roasting reservation operation start step (S310) is performed according to preset roasting profile information. At this time, if additional roasting is to be performed, the preheating time may be shortened because the roasting chamber is heated by the previous roasting operation. Meanwhile, if additional roasting is not to be performed in the additional roasting proceeding determination step (S350), the control is terminated.
