Description

  The present invention relates to a cooking device.

  In the prior art, for example, “identification corresponding to each of the plurality of operators 3-1, 3-2... Arranged on the operation panel 2 of the composite cooking machine 1 having a plurality of types of cooking functions. An operation display device in a combined cooking device, which is provided with a display section 4 that is numbered and displays the operation procedures of these operators 3-1, 3-2...

Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 59-19216 (Claim 1)

Conventionally, in a cooking device, cooking is started by operating a plurality of operation switches in a predetermined order. However, when operating such a plurality of operation switches, there is a problem that the operation sequence of the operation switches may be lost or erroneously operated.
Further, the user needs to remember the operation order of the plurality of operation switches. For this reason, for example, a user who easily forgets an operation such as an elderly person has a problem that it is a burden to remember the operation order.
In addition, there is a demand for a cooking device that can understand the operation sequence of a plurality of operation switches without looking at an instruction manual or the like.

In the technique of the above-mentioned patent document 1, the operation procedure of the operator corresponding to each cooking is displayed using an identification symbol. However, the explanation of the operation procedure is simply replaced with an identification symbol and displayed, so to speak, the contents of the instruction manual are displayed near the operator. For this reason, there is a problem in that the user has to operate each operator sequentially while understanding the operation procedure by looking at the display of the operation procedure and the identification symbol of the operator.
In addition, although the said patent document 1 has the description to represent an identification symbol with a number, since there is no relationship between the number attached | subjected to an operator and an operation procedure, It is still the same that each operator has to be operated while watching.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and provides a cooking device that can improve the usability when operating a plurality of operation switches.

In the above, the structure of the heating cooker in this Embodiment 1 was demonstrated.
Next, a description will be given of a procedure for starting cooking by the heating cooker according to the first embodiment.

For example, consider a case where an object to be heated such as a pan is placed on the heating port 4R and heated.
In the heating cooker according to the first embodiment, heating is started according to the following procedure.
(1) The user turns on the main power switch 50. As a result, power is supplied to the control unit 100 and the like.
(2) The user presses the cut-off switch 51 corresponding to the heating means for starting the heating cooking among the cut-off switches 51R, 51L, 51G. Here, the cut-in switch 51R of the right IH operation unit 5R corresponding to the heating port 4R is pressed. As a result, power is supplied from the power supply unit 200 to the inverter circuit 110R, and the induction heating coil 3R can be driven (heating preparation state). At this time, for example, the thermal power display 61R is displayed in blue to indicate that it is in a heating preparation state.
(3) The user presses the heating power setting switch 52 or the automatic cooking switch 56 corresponding to the heating means for starting the cooking. Here, the heating power setting switch 52R of the right IH operation unit 5R is pressed. Thereby, the control part 100 drives the inverter circuit 110R, and starts the induction heating by the induction heating coil 3R.

Thus, the numbers provided in the vicinity of the operation switches correspond to the order of operations for starting cooking.
The same number is printed on each of the on / off switches 51R, 51L, 51G that can be operated after the main power switch 50. That is, for each heating means, a number indicating the order for starting cooking is attached, and when there are a plurality of operation switches in the next order after any operation switch is operated, The same number is attached.

  In addition, the start procedure of the heating cooking mentioned above is an example, and is not restricted to this. For example, after the main power switch 50 is turned on, the heating cooking may be started by pressing the heating power setting switch 52 or the like. In this case, a number corresponding to the order of the procedure is printed on each operation switch.

As described above, in the present embodiment, a number indicating the order of operations for starting cooking is printed on or near the operation switch.
For this reason, the user can start cooking by operating the operation switch according to the number. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the operation sequence of the operation switches and the erroneous operation. Further, the user does not need to remember the operation order of the plurality of operation switches, and the burden of remembering the operation order can be reduced. In addition, it is possible to understand the operation order of the plurality of operation switches without looking at the instruction manual.
Therefore, usability when operating a plurality of operation switches can be improved.

  In addition, since the number indicating the order of operation is printed, even when the cooking device is displayed in a showroom or the like, for example, even when the cooking device is not supplied with power, the instruction manual is viewed. The order of operations can be understood without any problems.

In addition, since the numbers indicating the order of operations are printed, for example, even a user with hearing impairment can understand the order of operations without relying on an operation description such as a voice guide.
Moreover, even if it is a user with a visual impairment, for example, the operation order can be understood by printing the number in Braille.

In addition, a plurality of heating means are provided, and a number indicating the order of operations for starting cooking is printed on or near the operation switch for each heating means.
For this reason, even if there are a plurality of heating means, the user can start cooking by a desired heating means by operating the operation switch according to the number.

In addition, the operation switch is disposed on the front side of the heating unit that is the operation target and at a position corresponding to the position in the width direction of the heating unit.
For this reason, it is easy to understand the relationship between each operation switch and the heating means to be operated. Therefore, even when there are a plurality of heating means, the cooking by the heating means can be started by operating according to the number provided on the operation switch at the position corresponding to the heating means for starting the cooking. .
In addition, since the relationship between each operation switch and the heating means to be operated is easy to understand, even when there are a plurality of operation switches in the next order after any operation switch is operated, the desired heating means By operating according to the number of the operation switch corresponding to, heating cooking by the heating means can be started.
Therefore, usability when operating a plurality of operation switches can be improved.
