Electric cooker having a composite heat source
First Claim
1. An electric cooker having a composite heat source comprising:
- an external case having an air inlet and an air outlet;
a cooking plate mounted on an upper surface of the external case to be a top plate thereof;
a heat generating unit mounted between the external case and the cooking plate, the heat generating unit including a work coil and an electric heater and arranged coaxially with respect to a center of the air inlet;
a cooling unit arranged coaxially with respect to the center of the air inlet between the air inlet and the heat generating unit, the cooling unit cooling the heat generating unit;
an air duct provided below the heat generating unit; and
a reflector forming an outer cover of the electric heater,wherein the reflector includes a plurality of openings in which terminals of the electric heater are accommodated and forms a second passage provided between the openings thereof, andthe reflector and the air duct are configured to guide air introduced through the air inlet to a first passage formed between the electric heater and the work coil and then to the second passage.

10. An electric cooker having a composite heat source comprising:
- an external case formed with an air inlet disposed on a floor surface and an air outlet formed at a lateral surface thereof;
a cooking plate disposed so as to form a top plate of the external case; a blowing fan disposed on a floor surface of the external case and coaxially arranged with respect to a center of the air inlet upwards of the air inlet; a plurality of heat generating units disposed between the external case and the cooking plate and coaxially arranged with respect to a center of the air inlet upwards of the blowing fan, each of the heat generating units including a work coil and an electric heater; a plurality of cylindrical air ducts provided between the blowing fan and the heat generating unit to guide air sucked by the blowing fan to be blown to each heat generating unit; and a plurality of reflectors, each reflector forming an outer cover of the electric heater, wherein each reflector includes a plurality of openings in which terminals of the electric heater are accommodated and forms a second first passage provided between the openings thereof, and the reflectors and the air duct are configured to guide air introduced through the air inlet to a first passage formed between the electric heater and the work coil and then to the second passage. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12)
