The present invention relates to a self-stirring pot, comprising a pot housing (10), a thermionic power generation module (20) installed on the pot housing (10) to generate electricity using temperature differences, and a stirring module (30) disposed in the pot housing (10) to stir liquid contained in the pot housing (10) by generating a driving force from the electricity produced by the thermionic power generation module (20). The thermionic power generation module (20) comprises: a thermionic power generation device (22) configured to generate electricity using the Seebeck effect; a thermionic power generation housing (24) on which the thermionic power generation device (22) is installed, the thermionic power generation housing (24) being fixed to the pot housing (10) by inserting an insertion part (27) through the pot housing (10); and a connection electrode (22a) through which electricity generated from the thermionic power generation device (22) is supplied to the stirring module (30). The stirring module (30) comprises an inner housing (32) coupled to the insertion part (27) for being fixed to the pot housing (10), a motor (34) installed on the inner housing (32) to receive electricity through the connection electrode (22a), an outer housing (40) connected to the motor (34) so as to be rotated by the motor (34), and a stirring paddle (50) formed as a part of the outer housing (40) to stir liquid contained in the pot housing (10). Therefore, if the pot housing (10) is heated, the stirring paddle (50) is rotated by means of the electricity generated by the thermionic power generation device such that liquid contained in the pot housing (10) can be stirred without a separate power source. |
