<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a heating cooker having a heating object communication means with which stable communication can be performed, even when the heating object communication means is placed near boundary of a communication area and automatic cooking can be continued. <P>SOLUTION: The heating cooker comprises a heating means 10 which heats a cooking vessel 1, a control means 9 which controls output of the heating means 10, a temperature detection means 2 disposed in the cooking vessel 1 which detects the temperature of the cooking vessel 1, the heating object communication means 3 installed on the cooking vessel 1 which transmits result detected with the temperature detection means 2 to the control means 9 via a heating cooker communication means 6, and the heating cooker communication means 6 installed on a main body of the heating cooker which communicates with the heating object communication means 3. The heating cooker communication means 6 is so constituted that the communication area can be varied. When the cooking vessel 1 is set, the communication area is narrowed in order to urge a user to set the cooking vessel 1 near the center of the maximum communication area. After that, the communication area is expanded in order to raise the capability of the heating object communication means staying in an area where continuing the communication is possible, even when the communication area is narrowed by environmental variation during the communication or a position of the heating object communication means is changed. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT</p> |
