Abstract: An electric range is provided that may include an elastic holder to fix a fuse and a sensor in a central portion of an induction heating unit disposed over/on/in an upper portion of a base plate, thereby stably fixing the fuse and sensor against external impact. In the electric range, an upper end of the sensor may come into close contact with a lower surface of a cover plate disposed over/on/in an upper portion of the induction heating unit, thereby stably measuring a temperature of the cover plate and absorbing an external impact.

Abstract: An electric range is provided that may effectively increase output of a heater by optimizing a shape of each ferrite core without increasing a number of ferrite cores and may secure a maximum area of a through hole that facilitates communication between an inside and outside of a core frame, thereby preventing overheating of the heater and decreasing a use time of the heater.

Abstract: An electric range is provided that may include a case, a case, a cover plate coupled to an upper end of the case, wherein an object to be heated is placed on an upper surface thereof, an air blowing fan configured to discharge air, and an air guide that communicates with the air blowing fan, wherein a cross-sectional area of the flow path of air in a portion of the air guide at which air is discharged outward is greater than a cross-sectional area of the flow path of air at a portion of the air guide at which the air guide and the air blowing fan communicate.

Abstract: An electric range and a method for controlling an electric range are provided, in which a plate temperature sensor configured to sense a temperature of a cover plate and a thermal fuse configured to sense overheating of the cover plate are connected in series to configure a temperature sensing circuit, thereby simplifying a control substrate to which the temperature sensing circuit is electrically connected and reducing manufacture costs.

Abstract: An electric range is provided, in which a portion of a bracket, which is configured to support at least one heating unit, is bent downward. More specifically, the at least one heating unit may be mounted in a specific region on the bracket, and a recessed portion which is downwardly formed may be formed in a portion of the specific region. Accordingly, an electric wire disposed between the at least one heating unit and the bracket may be accommodated or disposed in the recessed portion, so that interference between the electric wire disposed between the at least one heating unit and the bracket and the at least one heating unit may be prevented.

Abstract: An electric range may include a case, a cover plate coupled to an upper end of the case and on an upper surface of which an object to be heated is placed, a heat sink, an air blowing fan, wherein the air blowing fan is configured to discharge air toward the heat sink, and an air guide that communicates with the air blowing fan, surrounds the heat sink, and forms a flow path of air that cools the heat sink, wherein the air guide includes an side outlet formed in a portion at which the air guide communicates with the air blowing fan, and wherein the air guide is configured to discharge a portion of air flowing from the air blowing fan outward.

Abstract: An electric range is provided that may include a dedicated coil temperature sensor configured to measure a temperature of a working coil so as to monitor the temperature of the working coil in real time and actively respond to a working coil load condition, thereby remarkably increasing an operation time of the electric range.

Abstract: A cooking appliance may include a holder disposed in an induction heating element provided below a cover plate, and a supporter disposed inside the holder that supports a sensor inserted into the holder to contact the sensor to the cover plate.
