Abstract: An electric cooker is provided, which can grill foods by heat rays from a metal heating member using induction heating and is hardly affected by drops from the foods. This electric cooker comprises a work coil wound in a substantially pipe-like shape for generating an alternating magnetic flux, a metal heating member having a substantially pipe-like shape disposed inside and coaxially with the work coil for being heated by the alternating magnetic flux generated by the work coil so as to generate heat rays, and an insulator having a substantially pipe-like shape disposed between the work coil and the metal heating member. A wire mesh for supporting the foods is disposed adjacent to the upper opening of the insulator. A receiving pan is disposed adjacent to the lower opening of the insulator for receiving drops from the foods. The metal heating member preferably has a shape suitable for collecting the heat rays to the upper opening.

Abstract: When resin pipes are connected through induction heating, the resin pipes of this invention do not form inside bulges due to air and resin expansion during the heating process. A cylindrical heater made of stainless steel is placed around the joint between two resin pipes made of polyvinylidene fluoride. The heater is then heated by induction heating to weld the joint of resin pipes. The heater has a plurality of holes on the cylindrical surface so that air and molten resin located between the heater and the resin pipes are released through the holes.
