Abstract:
1. A toaster device, comprising: a body having at least a heating groove for fitting a bread therein, and comprising a heating element in said heating groove for generating heat at a predetermined toasting temperature, and a sliding frame movably supported at said heating groove for guiding said bread in said heating groove to be toasted and for lifting up said bread out from said heating groove after said bread is toasted; a cover coupled on said body to selectively cover said heating groove, wherein said cover is operated between a closed position and an opened position via an opening mechanism; and a control device which comprises a control circuit operatively controlling said sliding frame, a power switch operatively linked to said heating element, a cover switch operatively linked to said opening mechanism, and a sensor operatively linked to said control circuit for detecting said toasting temperature, wherein when said sensor detects an overheat status in which said toasting temperature is higher than a preset temperature, said power switch is activated to out off a power of said heating element, wherein after said toasting temperature is dropped below said preset temperature, said cover switch is activated to move said cover from said closed position to said opened position, and said sliding frame is actuated for lifting up said bread from said heating groove.
