An induction heating cooker includes: a lid including at least one electronic device and a first terminal electrically connected to the electronic device; a main body having a upper surface that defines an opening, in which the main body includes a second terminal configured to connect to the first terminal based on rotation of the lid with respect to the upper surface of the main body; an internal pot configured to be accommodated in the main body; a coil part configured to heat the internal pot based on (i) external power being supplied to the coil part or (ii) electric currents being induced by a working coil of an induction heating apparatus; and a power supplying circuit configured to supply power to the electronic device in the lid through the first and second terminals.

A cooking control method of a cooking appliance comprises the following steps: acquiring a rice species identifier of rice to be cooked (S1); receiving cooking preference information of a user (S2); acquiring a corresponding rice species type according to the rice species identifier (S3); acquiring a corresponding cooking curve according to the cooking preference information and the rice species type (S4); and controlling the cooking appliance according to the cooking curve (S5). The cooking control method controls a cooking process according to user preference and the rice species type, thus greatly improving a cooking effect of the cooking appliance, and improving use satisfaction of the user. Also disclosed are a cooking appliance and cooking control device thereof.

The present embodiment relates to a cooker to be put on an induction heater having a working coil, the cooker comprising: a base; a container disposed at an upper part of the base and heated by an induced current of the working coil; a cap for covering the upper surface of the container; a pressure adjusting valve installed at the cap; a cooker communication module for communicating with the induction heater; and a cooker micro-computer for controlling the pressure adjusting valve and the cooker communication module. Therefore, the cooker enables cooking while the cooker is put on one selected from among multiple induction heaters having a working coil, thus improving the convenience of use, and is structurally simpler than a pressure rice cooker, thus minimizing the number of components thereof.

The present specification relates to a cooking appliance and, more specifically, to a cooking appliance comprising a lid and a main body and having an inner pot heated by induction heating. A cooking appliance according to one embodiment of the present specification comprises a lid and a main body. The lid can be completely separated from the main body and is rotation-coupled to the main body. A storage space accommodating at least one electronic device is formed inside the lid. In order to supply power to the electronic device accommodated inside the lid, at least one power transmission coil and at least one power reception coil are arranged at one side of the main body and one side of the lid, respectively. According to one embodiment of the present specification, power can be wirelessly supplied to an electronic device arranged in a storage space inside the lid of a cooking appliance, and the size of an inner pot accommodation space can also be maximized.

The present disclosure provides a housing assembly and a cooking appliance. The housing assembly includes a metal housing and an insulating member. The metal housing takes the shape of a disconnected ring on the whole, with a notch formed at a disconnected portion of the metal housing; the insulating member connects a disconnected end of the metal housing and covers the notch so that the housing assembly forms a closed-loop open circuit structure. According to the housing assembly provided by the present disclosure, as the metal housing is disconnected, and the disconnected portion of the metal housing is connected by the insulating member, so that the housing assembly is disconnected on the circuit, therefore, the magnetic field induction of the metal housing can be weaken to reduce the temperature rise.

A smart kettle is disclosed. The smart kettle includes a body that is configured to increase in temperature in response to a magnetic field. The smart kettle further includes a temperature sensor that is located on a bottom of the body and that is configured to measure a temperature of the bottom of the body. The smart kettle further includes a controller that is configured to adjust a strength of the magnetic field based on the temperature measured by the temperature sensor by outputting a control signal.

A heating cooker for a microwave oven in which in a main body through which microwaves are transmitted, an upper portion of a metallic pan is closely coupled, and a heating sheet receiving the microwaves and generating heat and an insulating support are coupled in order onto an undersurface of the pan, the heating cooker including a safety device configured such that a silicone packing is provided in a section of the close coupling between the pan and the main body, and so that if internal pressure of the cooker rises abnormally, the silicone packing is decoupled from the main body so as to reduce the pressure.
