Abstract:
Disclosed are a cooking apparatus and a method of controlling the same, which are capable of easily recognizing change in temperature of one of an oven and a cooktop through change in color corresponding to the temperature change at a position remote from the cooking apparatus, and which are capable of easily recognizing the temperature of the cooktop through a temperature display unit at a position that is somewhat lower than the cooktop by installing a temperature display unit at a position higher than the cooktop. To this end, the cooking apparatus includes a main body having at least one heating unit, a control panel installed on an upper surface of the main body, and a temperature display unit that is provided on the control panel, which displays a temperature of the heating unit through change in color.
Abstract:
Provided is a heating cooker which includes a body constituting an appearance thereof, an upper panel on which a cooking container is laid, a heater positioned under the upper panel to heat the cooking container laid on the upper panel, a fan housing liftably positioned at one side of the body to be raised above the upper panel and having an air intake port and an air discharge port, a blast fan and a fan motor positioned in the fan housing to forcibly blow air toward a surface of the upper panel, a fan housing lifter to raise and lower the fan housing, a temperature sensor to detect the temperature of the upper panel, and a controller to control the heater, the fan motor, and the fan housing lifter. The upper panel heated by the heater can be forcibly cooled by air from the fan housing.
Abstract:
A cooking apparatus to effectively agitate and evenly distribute high-temperature air into a cooking chamber by use of a single driving fan and a plurality of driven fans. The cooking apparatus includes the cooking chamber, the driving fan arranged at a rear wall of the cooking chamber, a convection heater to surround the driving fan, the plurality of driven fans arranged on a circumference of the driving fan, and a fan cover having a plurality of suction holes and discharge holes. The driving fan is connected with a drive motor to rotate in accordance with an operation of the drive motor. The driven fans rotate by use of air streams generated when the driving fan rotates. The high-temperature air is evenly agitated in accordance with the rotation of the driven fans to be distributed into the cooking chamber via the discharge holes in all directions.
Abstract:
A cooking apparatus includes a body, a pair of heating units, a grill unit, a heat reflecting unit, and a cooling fan. The heating units are arranged between the grill unit and the heat reflecting unit. The heat reflecting unit includes inner and outer reflecting plates that are inclined at certain angles to reflect heat radiated from the heating units toward the grill unit. The cooling fan is positioned in an inner space of the heat reflecting unit. The heat reflecting unit has front, rear, and side plates, which are provided with a plurality of through holes, so that air passes through the inner space of the heat reflecting unit.
Abstract:
A cooking apparatus which prevents a top casing thereof from being heated by heat transmitted from an electric heater. The cooking apparatus having a grill part to cook food thereon, and a electric heater to cook the food, includes a grill housing having a main casing including an opening part coupled with the grill part, providing the electric heater thereon, and a top casing coupled with an upper side circumferential area of the main casing with the center to the opening part, and the top casing including a plurality of top casing units separately provided.
Abstract:
A cooking apparatus having a body, one or more heating units, a grill unit, and a heat reflecting unit. The heating units are arranged between the grill unit and the heat reflecting unit. The heat reflecting unit has front and rear plates, side plates, and a pair of inner reflecting plates and a pair of outer reflecting plates. The inner reflecting plates are upwardly projected to be higher than the outer reflecting plates. The front plate includes an upper surface and inner and outer surfaces, and is provided in the upper surface thereof with a water inlet, and in the inner surface thereof with an overflow hole. The front plate has a water level window to ascertain a level of water. The front plate is positioned outside the body so that oil and sauce are prevented from entering the inner space of the heat reflecting unit through the water inlet.
Abstract:
A rack for a microwave oven capable of appropriately cooking food without burning the food, and a microwave oven set equipped with the rack includes a rack section to support the food thereon, and support sections to support the rack section. The rack section includes a plurality of hollow tubes and a hollow net tube. A liquid may be received in the hollow tubes and the hollow net tube. Accordingly, food is cooked without being burnt even when cooking is performed in a microwave oven using heat radiated from a heater.
Abstract:
A microwave oven for a vehicle includes an elastic vibration damping unit, and a joint unit which joins a body of the microwave oven to a vehicle through the vibration damping unit. The joint unit fixes the body of the microwave oven to the vehicle while the vibration damping unit damps vibration and impact generated from the vehicle in motion. Accordingly, inner devices of the microwave oven are prevented from being damaged by the vibration and impact.
Abstract:
A microwave oven includes a cooking chamber having an opening and a door which selectively opens and closes the opening of the cooking chamber. The door includes a frame which is constructed to form a circumferential edge of the door and be brought into contact with a rim of the opening, and a front plate which is projected forward from both sides of the frame. The door is formed by joining a first piece including the frame with a second piece including the front plate.
Abstract:
A microwave oven includes a direct current (DC) power supply unit which supplies DC power to a magnetron so as to suppress noise induced in a high voltage line. The DC power supply unit includes at least one rectifying diode and a choke coil. The rectifying diode rectifies high frequency alternating current (AC) power generated by a heater coil into the DC power to suppress noise induced in the high voltage line of a high voltage transformer. The choke coil forms ripples in the DC power and effectively prevents a moding of the magnetron, which is generated where a constant DC voltage is supplied.
