Abstract

A measuring device to be mounted on a grill device includes a processing unit, and a magnetic unit and a sensing unit that are mounted respectively on pivotally connecting first and second grilling units of the grill device. The sensing unit measures an angle of rotation of a magnetic field generated by the magnetic unit, and generates an output signal indicating the angle of rotation of the magnetic field. The processing unit obtains an included angle between the first and second grilling units based on the angle of rotation of the magnetic field indicated by the output signal received from the sensing unit.
