ELECTRIC RICE COOKER

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an electric rice cooker that enables cooking both in a pressure state and in a non-pressure state inside an inner pot and thus improves cooking quality and ease of use.SOLUTION: The electric rice cooker comprises: a main body in which an inner pot to accommodate cooking ingredients is received; a lid coupled to an upper portion of the main body to be opened or closed and including a passthrough portion formed therein; a pressure converter communicating with the passthrough portion, in which a selective opened/closed state is maintained for discharge of steam inside the inner pot; and a pressure-responsive actuator communicating with the passthrough portion and selectively opened or closed depending on a pressure level inside the inner pot in a pressure cooking mode in which the pressure converter is closed.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】内釜内の圧力状態及び非圧力状態において、各々調理可能であり、調理の品質および使用便宜性が向上した電気炊飯器を提供すること。【解決手段】調理材料をいれる内釜が収容される本体と、前記本体の上部に結合されて開閉し、貫通部が形成された蓋部と、前記貫通部に連通し、前記内釜内の蒸気を排出するための選択的な開閉状態が維持される圧力転換手段と、前記貫通部に連通し、前記圧力転換手段が閉鎖された圧力調理モードにおいて前記内釜内の圧力によって選択的に開閉される圧力対応作動手段とを備える。【選択図】図１
