Abstract:
A cooking apparatus includes: a main body; a cooking table; an induction coil configured to emit a magnetic field needed for induction heating of a cooking container; and a temperature measurement unit disposed in an electronic component chamber formed in the main body so as to measure a temperature of the cooking container. The temperature measurement unit includes: a case having an opening formed at a top surface thereof; a temperature sensor disposed in the case so as to measure a temperature of the cooking container; and a cooling duct, one side of which is coupled to the case and the other side of which includes an air inlet therein. The temperature measurement unit is configured to adjust an internal temperature of the case when air introduced from the air inlet moves to the case through the cooling duct.
Abstract:
An oil detection device for a compressor to detect at least two levels of oil in the compressor includes a first detection unit including a first reference electrode and a first detection electrode disposed at both sides of the first reference electrode, and a second detection unit including a second reference electrode spaced from the first reference electrode and a second detection electrode disposed at both sides of the second reference electrode.
Abstract:
A washing machine in which the structure of a laundry weight sensing apparatus to sense the weight of laundry within a tub is enhanced. The washing machine includes a cabinet, a tub, a support member provided with one end combined with the tub and the other end combined with the cabinet so as to support the tub to the cabinet, and a laundry weight sensing apparatus provided with one side combined with the support member to use load of the tub transmitted to the support member so as to sense the weight of laundry within the tub and the other side contacting one surface of the cabinet to prevent impact transmitted from the tub. The washing machine may precisely measure the weight of laundry without influence of surrounding environments and prevent an error generated due to transmission of vibration caused by operation of the tub.
