COOKER HAVING POWER GENERATING FUNCTION

摘要

The present invention provides a cooker, which has a container main body with an opened upper portion, and a thermoelectric conversion module attached to a bottom portion of the container main body, and which has power generating functions. The thermoelectric conversion module is a laminated thermoelectric conversion module with a structure having laminated therein: a module for high temperature sections, said module being configured of a module having a metal oxide as a thermoelectric conversion material, or a silicon alloy as the thermoelectric conversion material; and a module for low temperature sections, said module being configured of a module having a bismuth-tellurium alloy as the thermoelectric conversion material. The cooker can be effectively used as a power supply means under various conditions where a power supply cannot be used, has excellent power generation efficiency and durability, and furthermore, can be also used as a cooker besides as the power supply means.
