Abstract:
An induction heating device includes a casing, a cover plate coupled to a top of the casing, and a first induction heating module located within the casing and configured to heat an object on the cover plate. The first induction heating module includes: a working coil; an inverter configured to apply a resonant current to the working coil; a light guide located outside of the working coil, where the light guide includes a light-emission surface that is located at a top of the light guide, that is configured to indicate whether the working coil is driven, and that is configured to indicate an intensity of the working coil; a light emitting element vertically located below the light guide and configured to emit light to the light guide; and a control module configured to control the inverter and the light emitting element.
