Abstract (en)

[origin: JPH03129210A] PURPOSE: To ensure a controller with a simple robust structure, by forming many toothed peripheral passages with different arc lengths on a cylinder capable of being axially slided with a selector means of a cooking mode, and engaging the passage with a reciprocating actuator engaging with a switch, and further setting the position where the peripheral passages and the actuator are engaged with each other to be a function of the position of the cylinder. CONSTITUTION: Toothed portions 12 are provided around a title controller, spaced away with an interval from the same, and a number of teeth are provided which extend in succession in parallel to a rotary shaft 9 of a cylinder 8 with different lengths. Further, many toothed peripheral passages P1 , P2 ... are formed which have different arcuate lengths in the lengthwise direction of the cylinder 8 as a function of positions. Continuation of an engagement between the cylinder 8 and a reciprocating actuator 5 provides the function of positions of the cylinder 8 along the rotary shaft 9 with respect to the reciprocating actuator 5. As a result, the need of casting and high accuracy assembling is eliminated, and hence there is ensured a controller having a reliable and strong structure.
