Abstract

An induction heating cooker with improved discharge capability and cooling performance comprises a cooking plate 200 formed with a cooking vessel thereon; a cooking body 310 coupled to the cooking plate 200 to define a receiving space 311 therebetween and having an exhaust port 312 communicating with the receiving space 311; a plurality of unit induction heating modules 410 and 420 installed within the receiving space 311 to be partitioned from each other, each having a heating unit 412 or 422, a blowing fan 413 or 423 disposed close to the heating unit to cool the heating unit 412 or 422, and an exhaust passage 415 or 425 for allowing exhaust air generated by the blowing fan 413 or 423 to be guided to and discharged through the exhaust port 312; and a bridge duct 810 for allowing the exhaust passages 415 and 425 of the unit induction heating modules 410 and 420 to communicate with each other, to thereby enable to improve the cooling performance.
