Abstract

A compression chamber for a compression type ramen cooker is capable of cooking ramen by compression by blocking a discharge of air in a cooking container while cooking ramen. The compression chamber includes a lid, a chamber container having an upper portion on which the lid is mounted and a bottom surface to which the cooking container is coupled to seal the cooking container, a heater installed through the lid and mounted inside the chamber container to heat the water stored in the chamber container, a supply valve unit installed through the lid to supply water to the inside of the chamber container, a discharge valve unit installed through the lid to supply water in the chamber container to the cooking container, and a vapor discharge unit on a lower side of the chamber container to discharge compressed steam inside the cooking container.

Claims (22)

1. A compression chamber for a compression type ramen cooker, the compression chamber in combination with a cooking container capable of cooking ramen by compression by blocking a discharge of air in the cooking container while cooking the ramen put into the cooking container, the compression chamber comprising:

a lid;

a chamber container having an upper portion on which the lid is mounted and a bottom surface to which the cooking container is coupled to seal the cooking container;

a heater installed through the lid and mounted inside the chamber container to heat the water stored in the chamber container;

a supply valve unit installed through the lid to supply water to the inside of the chamber container;

a discharge valve unit installed through the lid to supply water in the chamber container to the cooking container; and

a vapor discharge unit installed on a lower side of the chamber container to discharge compressed steam inside the cooking container.

2. The compression chamber of claim 1 further comprising:

a temperature sensor installed on the lid and extended into the chamber container to measure the temperature of water inside the chamber container; and

a water level sensor installed on the lid and extended into the chamber container to measure the water level inside the chamber container.

3. The compression chamber of claim 1 , wherein the supply valve unit comprises:

a supply joint mounted on the lid; and

a solenoid valve connected to the supply joint to supply and block water.

4. The compression chamber of claim 1 , wherein the discharge valve unit comprises:

a rod valve moving up and down through the lid and the chamber container;

a gear engaged with a gear groove formed on the circumferential surface of the rod valve to drive the rod valve up and down; and

a driving motor for driving the gear.

5. The compression type ramen cooker of claim 1 , wherein the steam discharge unit comprises:

a steam outlet formed through the bottom surface of the chamber container and formed to protrude to the lower side of the chamber container;

a joint installed at the steam outlet;

a vapor discharge tube connected to the joint; and

a solenoid valve mounted on the steam discharge tube to open or block discharge of compressed steam through the steam discharge tube.
