Wireless food temperature-sensing assembly

摘要

The present invention is directed to a cooking utensil such as a microwave oven wherein a food temperature-sensing probe is inserted into a foodstuff for detecting the internal temperature of the food. The food temperature-sensing probe includes a resonance circuit the resonance frequency of which varies depending on the internal temperature. A first signal generator is provided for delivering a series of signals which contain a variety of frequencies inclusive of the signals of the resonance frequency. A second signal generator is employed to provide sweeping signals for the series of signals developed from the first signal generator. A selecting circuit is connected to the second signal generator for selecting a particular value in the sweeping signals relevant to the desired temperature of the foodstuff. A wireless controlled circuit is provided which determines the occurance of the dip phenomena in a relationship with the particular value in the sweeping signals under the radiation of the series of signals generated from the first signal generator.
