GRILL WITH ACTIVE PLATE LEVELING CONTROL

摘要

A cooking apparatus includes a base including a lower heating plate, an upper heating unit including an upper heating plate and a mounting structure configured to support the upper heating unit, where the mounting structure includes a motor mounting part. The cooking apparatus includes two or more motors configured to control an angle of the upper heating plate with respect to at least two axes that cross each other by controlling a length of wire extending between the two or more motors and the upper heating plate. The cooking apparatus also includes at least one sensor configured to detect an angle of the upper heating plate and a controller configured to receive from the at least one sensor a signal corresponding to the angle of the upper heating plate and to automatically adjust the angle of the upper heating plate to correspond to a pre-defined plane.
