COOKING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240357716 titled 'COOKING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF
The abstract describes a cooking apparatus that utilizes a combination of microwave radiation, convection heating, and radiant heat to cook food. The control unit of the apparatus receives cooking commands and executes a cooking process involving two heating stages.
- The cooking apparatus includes a cooking chamber, a microwave unit, a convection unit, and a grill unit.
- The control unit performs a cooking process by alternating between the first heating stage (microwave and either convection or grill) and the second heating stage (grill and convection without microwave).
- This innovative cooking method allows for precise control over the cooking process, resulting in efficiently cooked food with desired textures and flavors.
- The combination of different heating methods ensures even cooking and browning of food, enhancing the overall quality of the dishes prepared.
- By utilizing a variety of heating techniques, the cooking apparatus offers versatility in cooking different types of food items effectively.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in residential kitchens for convenient and efficient cooking. - It can also be implemented in commercial kitchens to streamline cooking processes and improve food quality.
Problems Solved: - The cooking apparatus addresses the challenge of achieving consistent and high-quality cooking results using multiple heating methods. - It provides a solution for users who seek a versatile cooking appliance that can handle various cooking techniques.
Benefits: - Precise control over the cooking process - Enhanced food quality and texture - Versatility in cooking different types of dishes
Commercial Applications: Title: Innovative Cooking Apparatus for Enhanced Culinary Results This technology can be marketed to home cooks, professional chefs, and food service establishments looking to improve their cooking processes and outcomes.
Prior Art: Further research can be conducted in the field of multi-functional cooking appliances and the integration of different heating methods for cooking.
Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in cooking technology, particularly in the area of combining microwave, convection, and grill heating methods for cooking.
Questions about Cooking Apparatus: 1. How does the control unit determine the optimal timing and sequence of heating methods during the cooking process? - The control unit uses pre-programmed algorithms and sensors to adjust the timing and sequence of heating methods based on the type of food being cooked and desired results.
2. What safety features are incorporated into the cooking apparatus to prevent overheating or accidents? - The cooking apparatus is equipped with temperature sensors and automatic shut-off mechanisms to ensure safe operation and prevent overheating.
Original Abstract Submitted
a cooking apparatus has a cooking chamber, a microwave unit to radiate microwaves to the cooking chamber, a convection unit to supply hot air to the cooking chamber, a grill unit to supply radiant heat to the cooking chamber, an input unit to receive a cooking command and a control unit to perform a cooking corresponding to the received cooking command by performing one of a first heating stage and a second heating stage, and after performing the one of the first heating stage and the second heating stage, performing the other one of the first heating stage and the second heating stage. in the first heating stage, the control unit operates the microwave unit and at least one of the convection unit and the grill unit, and in the second heating stage, the control unit operates the grill unit and the convection unit while not operating the microwave unit.
