In each of these drawings, the display means 7 includes a display unit 31 that uses a dot matrix liquid crystal display that displays cooking settings and progress in video and characters, and a frame shape that constitutes the outer portion of the display unit 31. A bezel 32 as a protective member, a display control board 33 on which a display control microcomputer for supplying power to the display unit 31 and displaying images and characters is mounted, and the display control board 33 and the display unit 31 And a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) 34 to be electrically connected.

  The bezel 32 is formed of a conductor such as metal for grounding, and a conductive member 35 made of a thin and long tape (band) -like conductive cloth is attached to a part thereof. Instead of providing the conductive member 35 on a part of the bezel 32, the entire bezel 32 may be integrally formed with the conductive member, and the bezel 32 may be grounded.

  Although not shown, the display control board 33 is configured by forming a conductive pattern such as a copper foil that forms an electric circuit on a hard insulating base material. The FPC 34 is formed by bonding a conductive pattern 37 such as a copper foil forming an electric circuit to an insulating film 36 that is thinner and more flexible than the display control board 33, and the conductive pattern 37 supplies power to the display unit 31. In addition to the plurality of main patterns 37A serving as signal lines to be supplied, one ground pattern 37B that is thicker and wider than the main pattern 37A is provided.

  On one side of the FPC 34, a connector 38 for connection to the display control board 33 is disposed. The connector 38 includes a plurality of conductive pins 39 that conduct to the conductive pattern of the display control board 33, and among them, a plurality of continuous conductive pins 39B are common to one end of one ground pattern 37B. The remaining conductive pins 39A are connected to one end of each main pattern 37A. The conductive pattern of the display control board 33 that is electrically connected to the conductive pins 39B is electrically connected to the metal cabinet 2 that is finally grounded as a microwave oven.

In the same figure, the item selection means 8 by a transparent touch panel is arranged on the rear (back) surface of the panel member 43 exposed on the front side of the operation panel unit 6 facing the surface on which the screen of the display unit 31 is displayed. . In the present embodiment, by grounding the bezel 32 that is an outline member of the display unit 31, the noise emitted from the display unit 31 to the item selection unit 8 is reduced, so that the display unit 31, the item selection unit 8, The distance T1 is the same as or smaller than the thickness T2 of the display unit (T1 ≦ T2), thereby bringing the display unit 31 and the item selection means 8 closer to each other. Thus, it is possible to reduce the deviation between the two.

  By the way, in the conventional cooking device, as a means for improving operability, a touch panel having a plurality of transparent electrode switches is arranged on the front side of the dot matrix liquid crystal display and displayed on the dot matrix liquid crystal display by operating the touch panel. The video and characters to be switched are switched. However, due to noise radiated from the dot matrix liquid crystal display, the transparent electrode switch placed on the front side may malfunction, and even if the sensitivity of the transparent electrode switch is optimized, the responsiveness deteriorates. Major improvements such as changing the display control method and the pattern routing of the display control board were forced.

  On the other hand, in this embodiment, the item selection means 8 as an operation part which selects cooking conditions, the display part 31 using the dot matrix liquid crystal display which displays the setting content and progress of cooking, and the display part 31 In the microwave oven as a heating cooker arranged on the front surface of the display unit 31, the item selection means 8 is all or part of the vessel 32 serving as an outer member of the display unit 31. Is composed of a conductive member (conductive member 35), and the bezel 32 is connected to the display control board 33 serving as a control board by the FPC 34 and is grounded through the cabinet 2.

  In this way, by using the wiring of the display control board 33 and the FPC 34, the bezel 32 that is the outer member of the display unit 31 is electrically connected to the cabinet 2 that is the casing of the microwave oven and grounded. It is possible to easily reduce noise radiated from the display unit 31.

  In this embodiment, since the ground pattern 37B for connecting the conductive member 35 to the FPC 34 is formed, the ground pattern 37B can be effectively used to easily ground the bezel 32 and the FPC 34 of the display unit 31. It becomes possible to do.

  In the present embodiment, the ground pattern 37B disposed on the FPC 34 is formed to be thicker and wider than the main pattern 37A corresponding to a signal line for supplying power to the other display units 31, and thus is grounded. It is possible to secure a large part and effectively reduce noise radiated from the display unit 31.

  In addition, since the ground pattern 37B of the present embodiment is connected to the conductive pins 39B that are a plurality of continuous pins of the connector 38, the ground portion of the connector 38 is enlarged by using the plurality of continuous conductive pins 39B. By ensuring, the noise radiated from the display unit 31 can be effectively reduced.

  Further, the conductive member 35 of the present embodiment is configured using a tape-shaped conductive cloth. In this case, the conductive member 35 can be easily manufactured without preparing special equipment.

  Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a structure is employed in which the interval T1 between the display unit 31 and the item selection unit 8 serving as the operation unit is smaller than the thickness T2 of the display unit 31. In this case, since the radiation noise from the display unit 31 is small by grounding the bezel 32, the item selection means 8 is not affected by the noise. In addition, it is possible to reduce the deviation between the display unit 31 and the item selection unit 8.

  Next, the configuration of the information communication terminal 24 that performs remote communication with the cooking device body 1 will be described with reference to FIG.

The information communication terminal 24 used here is a dedicated terminal device attached to the cooker body 1 as a part of the microwave oven, or a general-purpose terminal device to which a photographing function and a telephone function different from the microwave oven are added ( Smart phone, tablet terminal, etc.).

  FIG. 7 shows the main electrical configuration of the information communication terminal 24. In the figure, reference numeral 51 denotes a microcomputer as terminal control means. This microcomputer 51 is similar to the microcomputer 11 provided in the cooker body 1 and includes a CPU as arithmetic processing means, a timer as timing means, And a memory as a storage means, an input / output device, and the like. In particular, the information communication terminal 24 here uses a voice notification setting storage unit 52 that stores various settings related to voice notification of the information communication terminal 24 as a storage unit and a speaker 45 to notify a specific description by voice. And an explanatory text data storage unit 53 for storing a plurality of explanatory text data in units of words. The various settings mentioned here correspond to a case in which there is no voice input to the microphone 44 within a certain time counted by the timer after the inquiry is notified from the speaker 45 to the user (the certain time). Including setting of the notification content regarding whether or not to make various inquiries individually notified from the speaker 45 to the user, and setting the volume of the sound notified from the speaker 45 to the user. In either case, the information related to the voice notification from the voice notification setting unit 29 can be received and rewritten and updated.

  The operation unit 43 and the speech recognition unit 54 are electrically connected to the input port of the microcomputer 51, and the speech synthesis unit 55 and the display unit 46 are connected to the output port of the microcomputer 11, respectively. The voice recognition unit 54 generates a signal specifying a word from the voice signal input to the microphone 44 and sends it to the microcomputer 51. For example, the feature extraction of the waveform of the voice signal from the microphone 44 and the feature The word is identified through steps such as time series creation, comparison with a time series word dictionary, and extraction of similar words. The voice synthesizer 55 receives a signal from the microcomputer 51 and outputs a synthesized voice to the speaker 45. Here, the voice synthesizer converts the explanatory text data selectively extracted from the explanatory text data storage unit 53. When output to 55, the audio signal of the explanatory text corresponding to the explanatory text data is sent to the speaker 45, and the explanatory text is notified from the speaker 45 by voice.

  In order to enable communication between the information communication terminal 24 and the cooker body 1, for example, a communication interface 56 including a wireless or wired transmission / reception unit is electrically connected to the microcomputer 51.

  The microcomputer 51 receives the operation signal from the operation unit 43, the audio signal from the microphone 44, and the information related to the cooking menu from the cooking device body 1 sent via the communication interface 56, and counts the timer. It has a function of outputting an audio signal to the speaker 45 and outputting a display control signal to the display unit 46 at a predetermined timing. Such a function is realized by the microcomputer 51 reading the program recorded in the memory as a storage medium. In particular, in this embodiment, the microcomputer 51 is connected to the speaker control unit 57, the communication control unit 58, and the display. A program that functions as the control unit 59 is provided.

  The speaker control unit 57 corresponding to the notification control unit mainly controls the operation of the speaker 45 serving as the notification unit in cooperation with the voice synthesis unit 55. When the speaker control unit 57 receives a signal specifying a word from the voice recognition unit 54 based on the voice input from the microphone 44 spoken by the user, the speaker control unit 57 uses the communication interface 56 to The microcomputer 11 is inquired, and some of the cooking menu candidates that the user wants to select from the words are identified from all the cooking menus stored in the cooking menu all information storage unit 15 and selected from the candidates. All the information of one cooking menu is taken in from the cooking menu all information storage part 15, and based on the explanatory sentence data read from the explanatory sentence data storage part 53, it has the structure which is made to alert | report to the speaker 45 through the speech synthesizing part 55.

  The communication control unit 58 uses the communication interface 56 so that the heating operation of one cooking menu notified to the speaker 45 can be performed only by operating the cooking start instruction means 9 of the cooker body 1 next time. Then, the information of the one cooking menu is transmitted to the cooker body 1. Further, the display control unit 59 controls the operation related to the display of the display unit 7 in cooperation with the speaker control unit 57 and the communication control unit 58.

  Note that the speaker control unit 57, the display control unit 58, and the communication control unit 59 that function as terminal control means may be incorporated in the microcomputer 11 of the cooker body 1 instead of the microcomputer 51 of the information communication terminal 24. . Similarly, the voice notification setting storage unit 52 and the explanatory note data storage unit 53 can be incorporated in the microcomputer 11 of the cooking appliance body 1. As long as communication is possible between the cooker main body 1 and the information communication terminal 24, where such a configuration is provided is not particularly limited.

  Next, the operation of the cooker body 1 and the information communication terminal 24 having the above-described configuration will be described in detail with reference to the drawings of FIGS. In the following description, it is assumed that the cooker body 1 and the information communication terminal 24 can communicate with each other through the communication interfaces 25 and 58.

  FIG. 8 shows an example of a reaction when the user U speaks a cooking menu to be selected toward the information communication terminal 24. When the user U utters message information M1 related to the cooking menu, such as “I want to eat cake”, to the microphone 44 of the information communication terminal 24, the word specified by the voice recognition unit 54 is selected. Is input to the microcomputer 51.

  In response to this, the speaker control unit 57 lists several cooking menu candidates corresponding to the message information M1 from all the cooking menus stored in the cooking menu all information storage unit 15, and includes one of them. All the information related to the cooking menu of “Sponge Cake” is taken from the cooking menu all information storage unit 15, and the announcement A 1 including the name of the cooking menu is sent to the speaker 45 from the speech synthesis unit 55. Let me know. Therefore, even if the user U is not in the vicinity of the cooker body 1, the user U can obtain information on the cooking menu he / she wants to select by the announcement A1 notified from the speaker 45 of the information communication terminal 24.

  In addition, the communication control unit 58 transmits information that the cooking menu of “sponge cake” included in the announcement A1 is the cooking menu that the user U wants to select to the cooker body 1 via the communication interface 56. When the microcomputer 11 of the cooking device main body 1 acquires information related to the cooking menu of the “sponge cake” from the information communication terminal 24, the microcomputer 11 transitions from the off state immediately after power-on to the state where the cooking menu of the “sponge cake” is selected. Then, when the cooking start instruction means 9 is operated, the heating operation by the cooking menu of “sponge cake” is automatically started by the automatic cooking function provided in the heating control unit 27. Thus, the user U can perform a heating operation by one cooking menu on the cooking device body 1 side only by voice input, and can intuitively select the cooking menu.

  As described above, the microwave oven as the heating cooker according to the present embodiment is a micro that serves as a terminal control unit that controls the cooking device body 1 that performs the heating operation and the information communication terminal 24 that can communicate with the cooking device body 1. The information communication terminal 24 includes an operation unit 43 for performing cooking settings, a microphone 44 as an input unit for inputting a user's voice, and a notification unit for notifying the user of information. A speaker 45 and a display unit 46 for displaying an operation screen are provided.

Although not shown in the drawings, when you want to go to the next page, tap on the “Next” button, and when you want to return to the previous page, tap on the “Previous” button. Each time, one of the material display portions H3, H4 or the display portions H5, H6, H7 was displayed on one screen.

  However, in such a display method, for example, while displaying the third page, when it is desired to confirm what the ingredient “A” described in the display section H5 is, the display is returned to the first page. Part H3 is displayed, and after confirming that the ingredients of “A” described there are “onion” and “butter”, it is necessary to proceed to the third page that was originally displayed. It was very difficult to understand.

  Examples of suitable screen display of recipe information that has improved such problems are shown in FIGS.

  In FIG. 18, when the display control unit 28 displays the screen for “recipe information” on the display unit 31, one screen of the display unit 31 is divided into a plurality of vertical boundary lines L <b> 1, and the cooking menu display unit is displayed. A function for displaying the material display portion H11 and the display portion H12 at the same time is added below the H2. As described above, by dividing the screen of the display unit 31 into a plurality of display units H11 and H12 and having the function of displaying the recipe information on the plurality of display units H11 and H12, it is easy to see and easy to understand. The user U can decide what is displayed on each of the display units H11 and H12 according to his / her preference, and can provide a cooking device that can easily display even long recipe information on the display unit 31.

  In particular, in FIG. 18, for recipe information related to the cooking menu for “hamburger”, the screen of the display unit 31 is divided into two parts, the material display unit H11 is displayed in the display region on the left side of the screen, and the display region on the right side of the screen is created. The display unit H12 is displayed. This is because the screen of the display unit 31 is divided into a plurality of parts, and the function of dividing the screen into two according to the preference of the user U by using the function of displaying the recipe information on each of the screens. An easy-to-understand display method of displaying the display portion H12 on the right side of the screen while displaying the material display portion H11 on the first page can be realized. Therefore, for example, even if there is a description such as “A” that is often displayed on the display portion H1 or “1” in a circle, it is necessary to perform a tap operation to confirm what the corresponding food is. Thus, there is no need to advance or return the page to display another page, and it can be immediately confirmed on the same screen of the display unit 31. Note that the number of screen divisions in the display unit 31 is not limited to two but may be plural.

  FIG. 19 is a first modification example related to the screen display of the display unit 31. Here, for the recipe information related to the cooking menu of “hamburger”, the screen of the display unit 31 is divided into left and right parts by a vertical boundary line L 1. The material display portion H12 for the first page is displayed in the display area on the left side of the screen, and the material display portion H13 for the second page is displayed in the display area on the right side of the screen.

  It is possible to individually switch display contents on the left and right sides of the screen in the display unit 31, and display recipe information on the right side of the screen while displaying recipe information materials on the left side of the screen. In addition to displaying the creation method on the left side of the screen, you can display the material on the right side of the screen, display the creation method on the left and right sides of the screen, or display each material. . For example, if the recipe information is long, the first page of the creation method is displayed on the right side of the screen, and the second half of the creation method is displayed on the left side of the screen. It can also be displayed easily. It is also possible to individually advance or return the pages to be displayed on the left and right sides of the screen by a tap operation on the display unit 31, for example.

  In this way, when the screen of the display unit 31 is divided into a plurality of parts, the display information of the recipe information can be individually switched in each display area, so that the part that the user U likes in the recipe information Can be displayed on a single screen for easy viewing.

  FIG. 20 is a second modification example related to the screen display of the display unit 31. Here, for recipe information related to the cooking menu of “hamburger”, the screen of the display unit 31 is divided into two vertically by a horizontal boundary line L2. The material display portion H14 of the first page is displayed in the display area on the upper side of the screen, and the display portion H15 for creating the first page is displayed in the display area on the lower side of the screen.

  In the examples shown in FIG. 18 and FIG. 19, the screen of the display unit 31 is divided into left and right parts and recipe information is displayed. However, as shown in FIG. It is also possible to display the recipe information by dividing the screen into two vertically. Selection of such display can be switched by, for example, a tap operation on the display unit 31, and when the recipe information is displayed by dividing the screen of the display unit 31 into two, it is divided into left and right, or divided vertically. The display contents can be switched by the operation of the user U, so that the display contents can be selected and switched up and down or left and right for easy viewing according to the user U's preference.

  FIG. 21 is a third modified example related to the screen display of the display unit 31. Here, the screen of the display unit 31 is divided into two parts on the left and right by the vertical boundary line L1, and the display area on the left side of the screen relates to “hamburger”. A cooking menu display portion H16 and a material display portion H17 indicating the ingredients of the recipe information for the cooking menu of “hamburger” are displayed. And the material display part H19 which showed the material of the recipe information about the cooking menu of "chicken fried" is displayed. That is, here, recipe information of “hamburger” and “chicken fried” which are different cooking menus are displayed side by side on the same screen of the display unit 31. About recipe information of one type of cooking menu, In addition to displaying ingredients and how to make them separately on the same screen, or just making them separately on the same screen, recipe information for different cooking menus can be displayed separately on the same screen. It can also be displayed.

  Conventionally, only recipe information of one kind of cooking menu is displayed on one screen. While the recipe information of one cooking menu is being displayed, it is possible to check the recipe information of another cooking menu, If you are worried about which cooking menu to cook, you have to go back and forth between pages to display. However, in this example, the recipe information of different cooking menus can be displayed side by side on the same screen of the display unit 31, so the ingredients, how to make, cooking time, etc. can be easily compared. It is possible to save time and labor for selecting a menu.

  Further, from the state where the recipe information related to different cooking menus as shown in FIG. 21 is displayed side by side on the same screen of the display unit 31, a favorite cooking menu is selected by tapping on the display unit 31 or the like. Then, it is preferable that the heating operation by the selected cooking menu is automatically started only by operating the cooking start instruction means 9 next time. Thereby, it shifts to the state which can start cooking as it is, without performing troublesome operations, such as returning the page to display, from the state where the recipe information about a separate cooking menu is displayed side by side on the same screen of display part 31. This makes it possible to save time and effort.

  FIG. 22 is a fourth modified example related to the screen display of the display unit 31. Here, for recipe information related to the cooking menu of “hamburger”, the display screen of the display unit 31 is divided and made with the material display unit H11. When each of the display portions H12 is displayed, the characters of the material display portion H11 on the left side of the screen are displayed larger than the display portion H12 on the right side of the screen. Here, when the screen of the display unit 31 is divided, the size of characters displayed in each display region can be individually changed by, for example, a tap operation on the display unit 31.

  For example, the screen of the display unit 31 is viewed in a state in which the material display part H11 that is the material of recipe information is displayed on the left side of the screen and the display part H12 that is a recipe information is displayed on the right side of the screen. However, when preparing the material, if the characters on the material display portion H11 on the left side of the screen are enlarged, the recipe information characters can be displayed easily even if they are separated from the cooker body 1. .

  As described above, in this example, the display screen of the display unit 31 is divided into a plurality of parts and the recipe information is displayed in the respective display areas, and the size of the characters can be individually changed. Therefore, the character size can be individually changed in each display area according to preference so that the user U can easily see.

  FIG. 23 is a fifth modification example regarding the screen display of the display unit 31. Here, for the recipe information related to the cooking menu of “hamburger”, the display screen of the display unit 31 is divided and made with the material display unit H11. When each of the display portions H12 is displayed, the display area of the display portion H12 on the right side of the screen is made larger than the material display portion H11 on the left side of the screen. Here, when the screen of the display unit 31 is divided, the size of each display region can be changed, for example, by allowing the vertical boundary line L1 to be slid left and right by a tap operation on the display unit 31. It is possible to display more recipe information in the display area than in the other display area.

  For example, when preparing to cook while looking at the screen of the display unit 31 and the hand is dirty and the operation on the screen of the display unit 31 is difficult, the display area of the display unit H12 If you increase the size in advance, the number of characters displayed on one screen will increase, and the display of how to make up to the next page will fit on one page, even if it does not fit on one page The number of page switching operations can be reduced.

  Also, in combination with the fourth modification, for example, by making the display area of the display unit H12 larger, and further displaying the characters of the display unit H12 larger, it can be made even away from the cooker body 1 The way display portion H12 becomes very easy to see.

  As described above, in this example, the display screen of the display unit 31 is divided into a plurality of parts and the recipe information is displayed in the respective display areas, and the size of the display area can be changed. Therefore, the size of each display area can be changed according to preference so that the user U can easily see.

  Furthermore, by making it possible to change the combination of the size of the display area and the size of the characters, a display method that suits the preference of the user U can be achieved.

  In each example of FIGS. 18 to 23 described above, one cooking menu when the screen of the display unit 31 is divided and recipe information is displayed in each display area, or a plurality of menus displayed side by side in each display area are displayed. When dividing the cooking menu and the screen of the display unit 31, which direction (left and right or up and down) the display area is arranged, the size of characters in each display area, the size of each display area, It is preferable that the display method setting changed when displaying the recipe information on the display unit 31 is stored individually or all together in the memory of the microcomputer 11.

  In this way, the setting of the display method of the display unit 31 relating to the recipe information can be stored in the memory each time the change is made, and the trouble of reselecting the cooking menu for comparing the recipe information before that can be omitted and stored. It is possible to display again easily from the list. In addition, if the user U displays the recipe information material on the left side of the screen and displays the recipe information on the right side of the screen, such a display method setting may be stored in the memory. It is not necessary to change the display method each time the recipe information is displayed on the display unit 31.

  That is, when the screen of the display unit 31 is divided and the size of characters and the size of the display area are changed in each display area, the changed display method setting is stored in the memory of the microcomputer 11, for example. By making the configuration possible, for example, when the size of a character or a display area is changed, the recipe information is displayed on the display unit 31 again in the same state by reading the display method setting from the memory later. Can do.

  By the way, in a heating cooker, as a means for setting a cooking time, a configuration in which an operation is performed within a specific range on the surface of a touch panel on an operation screen displayed on a display unit is known as a conventional technique. However, in this configuration, the touched location is not displayed, and it is difficult for the user to understand the correspondence between the cooking time set for the evening and the location where the evening is set. In addition, there is a problem that fine setting of cooking time is difficult. In view of this, the present embodiment proposes a heating cooker that makes it possible to set a fine cooking time while making it more intuitive and easy to operate.

  24 and 25 show transitions of screens that the display control unit 28 displays on the display unit 31 when the heating control unit 27 controls the microwave heating means 21 to perform range heating. In addition, in this embodiment, it becomes the structure which radiates | emits a microwave to the to-be-cooked object accommodated in the cooking chamber 3, and energizes the to-be-cooked object by the electricity supply operation | movement to the microwave heating means 21. FIG.

  (C) in FIG. 24 is an initial screen displayed on the display unit 31 immediately after the power is turned on. This initial screen (c) is a so-called tab-type screen, and a frequently used menu button is displayed on the upper side. The “daily” tab button T11 displayed on the side, the “manual” tab button T12 displayed on the lower side for the menu button for manual cooking, and the “automatic” menu button for automatic cooking displayed on the lower side. ”Tab button T 13,“ Recommended ”tab button T 14 for displaying a menu button for selecting a specific menu in automatic cooking, and menu buttons for various settings such as buzzer notification means 23.

  When the “range” menu button B37 is touch-operated, the display control unit 28 changes the screen display of the display unit 31 from the “manual” selection screen (c-1) to the “range” output wattage selection screen ( Switch to c-2). In this selection screen (c-2), a screen for selecting the output of the range heating is displayed, and a selection button B43 of “600 W”, a selection button B44 of “500 W”, and “ “200W” selection button B45, “100W” selection button B46, and “next” button B47 for switching the display unit 31 to the selection screen (c-2) on the next page are displayed as item selection display units, respectively. Is done.

  When the “range” output wattage selection screen (c-2) is displayed, for example, when a touch operation is performed on the selection button B43 of “600 W”, the output of the range heating is set to 600 W, and the display control unit 28 Switches the screen display of the display unit 31 from the selection screen (c-2) to the initial setting screen (c-3) of the heating range of “range 600 W” output (see FIG. 25). In the initial setting screen (c-3), a menu output display portion H21 indicating “range” which is the name of the manual cooking menu and “600 W” which is the output of the cooking menu is arranged on the upper side, and the menu output display. In the lower display area of the part H21, a cooking time setting bar R1 for setting the cooking time and a time display part H22 for indicating the set cooking time in numbers are arranged.

  In the cooking time setting bar R1, the portion surrounded by a square functions as an individual button display portion H23. A plurality of button display portions H23 are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction, whereby the cooking time setting bar R1 is formed in a frame shape as a whole. On the upper part of the cooking time setting bar R1, there is arranged a scale display portion H24 in which the left end of the cooking time setting bar R1 is set to 0 and the set time from there to the right end is indicated by numerals.

  When the initial setting screen (c-3) of the heating time is displayed and when an arbitrary place in the frame is touched on the cooking time setting bar R1, the cooking time corresponding to the touched position is set. The display control unit 28 switches the screen display of the display unit 31 from the initial setting screen (c-3) where the set time icon I1 does not exist to the setting screen (c-4) where the set time icon I1 exists.

  In the heating time setting screen (c-4), the set cooking time is displayed on the upper side of the cooking time setting bar R1, for example, “3 minutes 30 seconds” in the time display portion H22, and the cooking time setting bar R1. A set time icon I1 indicating the current set time as a symbol is displayed with the left end of the cooking time setting bar R1 as the base end. Further, in order to finely adjust the set cooking time, a “−” display button B48 for reducing the set cooking time is arranged on the left side of the time display portion H22, and a setting is made on the right side of the time display portion H22. A “+” display button B49 for increasing the cooking time is arranged.

  The set time icon I1 has a slide display portion H25 that is longer and narrower than the button display portion H23 at the right end, and the set time icon I1 is displayed on the setting screen (c-4). With the finger touching the slide display portion H25, the finger is slid horizontally along the cooking time setting bar R1, so that the finger is touched as shown in the setting screen (c-5). The corresponding cooking time (for example, “15:00”) is displayed on the time display portion H22, and the tip of the set time icon I1 also moves in the horizontal direction including the slide display portion H25. In this example, the set time icon I1 is displayed so as to be superimposed on the surface of the cooking time setting bar R1, but any one or more of the surface, upper, lower, and side surfaces of the cooking time setting bar R1 are displayed. The set time icon I1 may be arranged in

  When the finger is touched or slid on the button display portion H23 of the cooking time setting bar R1 in a state where the initial setting screen (c-3) is displayed, one button display portion H23 is displayed for 0 to 5 minutes. Cooking at 30 second intervals, one button display H23 for 1 to 5 minutes for 5 to 10 minutes, and one button display H23 for 5 to 10 minutes for 10 to 30 minutes As the time becomes longer, the time interval of one button display portion H23 becomes larger and can be set discretely. In FIG. 25, on the initial setting screen (c-3), by touching the finger for 0 to 5 minutes displayed on the scale display portion H24 on the button display portion H23 of the cooking time setting bar R1, In the setting screen (c-4), the set time is set to 3 minutes 30 seconds with an interval of 30 seconds.

  Further, the cooking time setting bar R1 displayed on the initial setting screen (c-3) has a maximum value of 10 minutes, for example, as shown in another initial setting screen (c-6) depending on the setting of the user U, and is discrete. It is possible to select from a plurality of settings so that one button display portion H23, which is the minimum unit of cooking time that can be set to, has a value of an interval of 30 seconds in the entire region of 0 to 10 minutes.

  As described above, on the setting screen (c-5), it is displayed on the time display unit H22 that the set cooking time is “15:00”. In this state, when the “+” display button B49 arranged in the upper right part of the setting screen (c-5) is touched, the set cooking time is changed from 15 minutes to 16 minutes as shown in the setting screen (c-7). Increase in minutes. This increased value is smaller than the minimum unit (5 minutes) of the same cooking time set discretely by touching or sliding a finger on the button display portion H23 of the cooking time setting bar R1, and on the cooking time setting bar R1. It is possible to finely variably set the cooking time by touching the “+” display button B49 rather than by operating with “.”

  The same applies to the case where the “−” display button B48 arranged at the upper left part of the setting screen (c-5) is touch-operated, and the “−” display button B48 and the “+” display button B49 are touch-operated. Every time you do, the set cooking time increases or decreases by 1 minute. Therefore, after roughly setting the cooking time by a touch operation or a slide operation on the cooking time setting bar R1, the “−” display button B48 or the “+” display button B49 is touched to set the set cooking time. It can be changed more finely.

  Then, for example, after setting the cooking time to “16:00” as displayed on the time display portion H22 in the setting screen (c-7), the cooking start instruction means 9 is pushed to operate the cooking. When cooking is started for the cooking object in the room 3, as shown in the setting screen (c-8), the slide display portion H25 of the set time icon I1 moves to the base end side as the cooking progresses, and time display is performed. In part H22, the remaining cooking time is displayed. Accordingly, the user U can intuitively recognize the remaining time after the start of cooking by not only the time display unit H22 but also the set time icon I1.

  As described above, the present example includes the item selection unit 8 as an operation unit for performing a cooking operation, and the display unit 31 using a dot matrix liquid crystal display that displays a screen for operating the item selection unit 8. When the cooking time is set, the cooking time setting bar R1 is displayed on the display unit 31, and the user touches any part of the cooking time setting bar R1 on the cooking time setting bar R1.

  In this case, when the user U sets a cooking time and touches an arbitrary position in the frame of the time setting bar R1, a cooking time icon is displayed near the time setting bar R1 corresponding to the currently set cooking time. I1 is displayed, and the cooking time set separately is displayed in the screen of the display unit 31. Therefore, the user U can intuitively set the cooking time.

  Moreover, when the slide display part H25 located at the front-end | tip of the cooking time icon I1 is slide-operated along the cooking time setting bar R1, it becomes the structure by which cooking time is variably set.

  In this case, the user U can set the cooking time more intuitively by a sliding operation on the display of the cooking time icon I1.

  Further, when the finger is touched or slid on the cooking time setting bar R1, the cooking time is set discretely instead of continuously, and the minimum unit thereof is a plurality of different values (30 seconds) depending on the touched or slid position. , 1 minute, 5 minutes). Therefore, the user U can finely adjust the setting of the cooking time according to the position where the finger is touched or slid on the cooking time setting bar R1.

  Further, the minimum unit and the maximum value of the cooking time set discretely by touching or sliding a finger on the cooking time setting bar R1 can be selected from a plurality of settings, for example, by an operation input by the user U. To do. In this way, since the minimum unit and maximum value of the cooking time that can be discretely set by the touch operation or the slide operation on the cooking time setting bar R1 can be changed by the user U, the user U can finely set the cooking time. Can be adjusted.

  In addition to the time display portion H22 for displaying the set cooking time, the display unit 31 includes a “−” display button B48 and a “+” display button B49 as fine adjustment buttons for finely adjusting the set cooking time. The minimum unit of cooking time that can be discretely set by touching the “−” display button B48 or “+” display button B49 is discrete by touching or sliding on the cooking time setting bar R1. It is the same or smaller than the minimum unit of cooking time that can be set automatically.

  For this reason, first, after roughly setting the cooking time by a touch operation or a slide operation on the cooking time setting bar R1, the “−” display button B48 or the “+” display button B49 is touched to set the cooking time. The user U can change the time more finely.

  Moreover, when the cooking start instruction means 9 is pushed to start cooking from the state where the display unit 31 displays the setting screen (c-7), the setting is made as shown in the setting screen (c-8). The set time icon I1 indicating the cooking time is configured to move from the display position at the time of setting as the cooking progresses. Accordingly, the user U can intuitively recognize the remaining time after the start of cooking by the display of the set time icon I1.

  In addition, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment, A various change is possible in the range which does not deviate from the meaning of this invention. For example, the voice notification setting unit corresponding to the first setting change unit to the third setting change unit incorporates a part or all of the functions into the microcomputer 51 of the information communication terminal 24, and performs various settings on the information communication terminal 24 side.
