Fixing bolts 35 for adjusting the height of the water heater 4 in contact with the upper end of the slide rail 19 at two locations of the water heater 4 with the head facing downward, and further fixing the slide rail 19 to the cabinet 1 through the mounting holes 19b is doing.
[0017]
Next, the operation of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. When one of a plurality of cooking appliances stored in the cabinet 1 or each cooking appliance is started to operate simultaneously, a current more than a set value flows by the current detection circuit unit 27b provided in the control unit 27. Thereby, the driving | running state of each cooking appliance is detected and the driving | operation of the 1st, 2nd fans 8 and 9 of the steam processing means 11 is started by the fan operation control circuit part 27e. At the same time, whether or not the fans 8 and 9 are operating normally is constantly monitored by the abnormality detection circuit unit 27f. And when some abnormality generate | occur | produces in the fans 8 and 9, and one or both of the fans 8 and 9 stop, operation | movement of all the cooking appliances is stopped by the apparatus operation control circuit part 27c.
[0018]
When each cooking device is operated, the fans 8 and 9 are operated, and all the steam discharged from the rice cooker 3 and the water heater 4 is drawn into the duct 14 by the first fan 8, and further passes through the pipe 10a of the heat exchanger 10. To do. At this time, the cooling air blows against the fins 10b of the heat exchanger 10 by the second fan 9, exchanges heat with the steam passing through the pipe 10a, and condenses to become drain water. The heat-exchanged steam-treated air and the cooling air are discharged from the front louver unit 15 into the room. Condensed drain water flows downward again through the duct 14 and falls through the hose 24 to the drain water receiving portion 19b of the drain tank 19 provided in the lower space 16.
[0019]
The cooling air generated by the operation of the second fan 9 is sucked into the indoor air from the air intake 23 at the lower part of the cabinet 1 and passes through the lower space 16 and the rear space 13. At this time, since the duct 14 through which the steam passes is arranged in this space, heat exchange is also performed here.
[0020]
Furthermore, when a range oven or the like is operated, the temperature inside the cabinet 1 is prevented from rising due to the heat, and the heat is taken away by the flow of the cooling air.
[0021]
Further, the oil smoke discharged from the exhaust rear portion 2b of the cooking appliance such as the range oven 2 is collected by the second fan 9 while passing through the oil smoke processing means 26, and similarly discharged from the louver portion 15 into the room. . Moreover, since there is the partition wall 25 at this time, the discharged oil smoke does not spread over the entire cabinet 1, and the cooling air is drawn from the intake hole 2 a of the range oven 2. In this case, since one path is configured, the hot air is not sucked again and is not trapped, and the temperature rise inside the range oven body can be suppressed. For this reason, the oven can be used without any problem even when it is stored.
[0022]
Further, the filter constituting the oil smoke treatment means 26 can be easily cleaned by removing the louver portion 15 and pulling it out to the state 26a.
[0023]
The drain water that has fallen into the drain water receiving portion 19b of the drain tank 19 flows through the groove portion 19d and is stored in the drain tank 19 through the drain tank hole portion 19c. When this amount accumulates above a certain level, the full water detection unit 18 detects a full water state, the signal is transmitted to the full water detection circuit unit 27d of the control means 27, and the operation of each cooking device is stopped. The operation is prohibited, the fans 8 and 9 are operated for a certain period of time and then stopped, and the notification means 27h notifies the full water. By this notification, the drain door 20 is opened, the drain tank 19 is taken out, the water in the drain tank 19 is discarded, and the drain tank 19 is set again at a predetermined position to return each cooking appliance to a usable state again.
[0024]
6A shows a state in which the drain tank 19 in the full water detection unit 18 is empty, FIG. 6C shows a full water state, and FIG. 6B shows an intermediate state. When the drain tank 19 is empty, the second lever 34 is pushed by the plate 35 provided on the arm 31 and the microswitch 32 is pushed. When drain water accumulates as shown in (b), the arm 31 descends due to its weight, and at the same time the plate 35 descends and separates from the second lever 34, but the first lever 33 hits the second lever 34. The state where the microswitch 32 is pressed is maintained. When drain water further accumulates and the first lever 33 descends over the portion 34b of the second lever 34 as shown in (c), the second lever 34 is moved by the spring force of the micro switch 32. When pressed, the microswitch 32 is inverted. This detects a full water condition.
[0025]
When the drain door 20 is opened and the drain tank 19 is taken out when the water is full, the arm 31 is pulled up by the force of the spring 36. At this time, the portion 34b of the second lever 34 and the first lever 33 are hooked, but the first lever 33 rotates in the direction of the arrow so that it can be returned to the set state without being caught. Then, by inserting the drain tank 19 again, the first lever 33 can be rotated to the original state. If the arm 31 is accidentally pushed down when the empty drain tank 19 is inserted, the drain tank 19 is placed on the first lever 33, so that the lever 33 does not rotate and the second lever 33 and the second lever 33 are not rotated. The lever 34 is caught. For this reason, unless the strength of the spring 36 is increased, it may not be restored. However, when the arm 31 is raised, the plate 35 provided on the arm 31 pushes the bent portion 34a at the lower end of the second lever 34, so that the second lever 34 is returned first, and the first lever 33 is easily rotated. It is possible to return to the original set state.
[0026]
7 and 8 show a method of adjusting the height and inclination of the equipment that can be slid out from the cabinet 1 such as the rice cooker 3, the water heater 4, and the storage section 5, and a slide rail 19 is attached to each equipment. By loosening the screw of the elongated hole portion 19a and turning the adjusting bolt 37, the height and inclination can be set to the required positions at any time.
[0027]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the present invention opens and closes the intake air filter at the same time as the drain door, so that, for example, it is not necessary to remove the intake filter to take out a drain tank, etc. This is a composite cooking device that can be made to work.
