Automatic control stove

An automatic stove comprising:

• at least one burner including a surface on which a cooking implement is to be placed;
• a computer for controlling operation of said at least one burner based on a cooking control program including at least one of burner operation time and burner heat quantity out-put;
• a code transmitter/receiver system including a first part at said stove and a second part at a movable source including at least one of an implement or user of the stove providing interactive communication for the system part;
• enabling means at the stove to recognize presence of an authorized second part in proximity of the stove and actuating the computer to enable actuation of the said at least one burner;
• and
• a support grid for each burner set over supports having a sensor that determines the exact weight of the utensil over the grid;
• and
• a control panel having a digital display with a zero button and a totalizer to provide information about food weight over the burner support grid, pre-programmed time and regressive time count, individual control lock, a detail button that changes the information;
• a flame sensor button, and a button that indicates the burner being programmed and a delay button that operates time re-read to delay the burner switch off operation when there is no weight sensed over the barrier grid.

An automatic stove comprising:

• at least one burner including a surface on which a cooking implement is to be placed;
• a computer for controlling operation of said at least one burner based on a cooking control program including at least one of burner operation time and burner heat quantity output;
• a code transmitter/receiver system including a first part at said stove and a second part at a movable source including at least one of an implement or user of the stove providing interactive communication for the system part;
• enabling means at the stove to recognize presence of an authorized second part in proximity of the stove and actuating the computer to enable actuation of the said at least one burner;
• an oven;
• an internal regulating temperature system for the oven to be programmed via a numeric keyboard, to control automatically the oven burner flame intensity;
• and
• a variable parameter programmer system (time.times.temperature.times.dehydration degree.times.vapor) to automatically control time and internal oven temperature, a food loss weight checking function to control dehydration degree and regulate the vapor amount to be introduced during the preparation of food.

An automatic stove comprising:

• at least one burner including a surface on which a cooking implement is to be placed;
• a computer for controlling operation of said at least one burner based on a cooking control program including at least one of burner operation time and burner heat quantity output;
• a code transmitter/receiver system including a first part at said stove and a second part at a movable source including at least one of an implement or user of the stove providing interactive communication for the system part;
• enabling means at the stove to recognize presence of an authorized second part in proximity of the stove and actuating the computer to enable actuation of the said at least one burner;
• and
• an atmospheric compensator system that modifies the cooking control program (time.times.temperature.times.vapor.times.dehydration degree) according to the current atmospheric conditions.

An automatic stove comprising:

• at least one burner including a surface on which a cooking implement is to be placed;
• a computer for controlling operation of said at least one burner based on a cooking control program including at least one of burner operation time and burner heat quantity output;
• a code transmitter/receiver system including a first part at said stove and a second part at a movable source including at least one of an implement or user of the stove providing interactive communication for the system part;
• enabling means at the stove to recognize presence of an authorized second part in proximity of the stove and actuating the computer to enable actuation of the said at least one burner;
• and
• alarm means for producing an alarm upon said transmitter/receiver system sensing the presence of an unauthorized second part.

An automatic stove comprising:

• at least one burner including a surface on which a cooking implement is to be placed;
• a computer for controlling operation of said at least one burner based on a cooking control program including at least one of burner operation time and burner heat quantity output;
• a code transmitter/receiver system including a first part at said stove and a second part at a movable source including at least one of an implement or user of the stove providing interactive communication for the system part;
• enabling means at the stove to recognize presence of an authorized second part in proximity of the stove and actuating the computer to enable actuation of the said at least one burner;
• and
• means for sensing at least one of pressure, humidity and temperature conditions external of the stove and supplying information relative to the sensed condition to the computer for adjusting the cooking control program as a function of the said at least one condition sensed.
