HEATING POWER ADJUSTMENT DEVICE IN CONTINUOUS RICE COOKING MACHINE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a continuous rice cooking machine capable of automatically adjusting heating power corresponding to the respective processes of a rice cooking process. ;SOLUTION: This rice cooking machine is constituted so as to transfer rice cooking pots 6 by an endless carrying conveyor 4 provided inside a rice cooking furnace 1, heat the rice cooking pots 6 by the gas burner groups 8A... of plural blocks installed below the conveyor 4 and cook rice. In this case, pot lid temperature detectors 12A... for detecting the surface temperature of a recessed part formed on the pot lid of the rice cooking pot 6, heating power change means 11A... for respectively changing the heating power of the gas burner groups 8A... of the plural blocks and a controller for comparing detection signals from the pot lid temperature detectors 12A... with intra-pot temperature patterns from the start of rice cooking to the completion of rice cooking set beforehand and respectively controlling the plural heating power change means 11A... so as to match the detection signals from the pot lid temperature detectors 12A... with the intra-pot temperature patterns are installed.;COPYRIGHT: (C)1997,JPO
