Problems solved by technology

However, these new functions are still focused on the chopsticks themselves, and the chopsticks are not integrated into the overall dining service, which limits its further development
[0003] Correspondingly, in mid-to-high-end restaurants, the service to customers is becoming more and more refined, and the management side must grasp the dining preferences of customers. However, due to different personal tastes, it is difficult to satisfy every customer with the taste of the same dish. Similarly, since everyone has a different appetite, if there are too many dishes on the table, it will easily cause waste

Embodiment 1

[0025] An intelligent chopsticks of the present invention includes a chopstick body. A salt sensor is arranged on the front side of the chopstick body. A microprocessor with a storage device connected to the output of the salt sensor is arranged in the chopstick body. Data collected by the salt sensor every time They are stored separately in the storage device. The storage device is an SD card, which can be plugged in to transfer data. Or the microprocessor is connected with a wireless sending module to send data wirelessly.

[0026] The salinity sensor can use a salinity measuring instrument based on the principle of conductivity, such as the ES-421 conductivity method. The sensing end is set on the front side of the chopstick body, which is more convenient than the measuring instrument based on refractive index, and the circuit part is simple, which can be completely hidden inside the chopstick body .

[0027] Based on the chopsticks, a set of personalized dining information ma...

Embodiment 2

[0029] An intelligent chopsticks of the present invention includes a chopstick body. A sugar sensor and a salt sensor are arranged on the front side of the chopstick body. A microprocessor with a storage device connected to the sugar sensor and the salt sensor is arranged in the chopstick body. The data collected by the sensor and the salt sensor each time are separately stored in the storage device. The storage device is an SD card, which can be plugged in to transfer data. Or the microprocessor is connected with a wireless sending module to send data wirelessly.

[0030] The sugar sensor can use the ATAGO series sugar meter, the sensing end is set on the front side of the chopstick body, the circuit part is simple, and it can be completely hidden into the chopstick body.

[0031] The front end of the chopsticks body can also be provided with a temperature sensor connected to the microprocessor, and the side wall of the chopsticks body is provided with a display screen connected ...

Embodiment 3

[0034] Such as figure 1 As shown, in addition to the sugar sensor and the salt sensor in the first embodiment, the front end of the chopsticks body is also provided with a pressure sensor. Each time the front end of the chopsticks body contacts the dish or the diners’ mouth, data will be collected at least once. The threshold can be set based on experience. When the collected pressure is greater than the set threshold, it is a valid pressure data, which can minimize the error and meet the requirement of “only collect data once when you touch the dishes or the diners’ mouth”. The output of the sensor is also connected to the storage device.

[0035] Based on the chopsticks, a set of personalized dining information management system can be established. Using the acquired data, the salt, sugar, and pressure interval values ​​are established in the control module. According to the intervals in which multiple salt data fall into, the current diners can be judged. The saltiness requir...

Abstract

The invention relates to a pair of intelligent chopsticks. The pair of intelligent chopsticks comprises a chopsticks body, wherein a salt content sensor is arranged on the side face of the front end of the chopsticks body; a microprocessor which is connected to the output of the salt content sensor and is provided with a storage device is arranged in the chopsticks body; the data collected by the salt content sensor every time are respectively and independently stored in the storage device. The invention further provides an individualized dinning information management system based on the intelligent chopsticks. The individualized dinning information management system comprises a control module for receiving the data of salt content and sugar content in the storage device, a salt and sugar interval value is arranged in the control module, the salinity requirement of the current dinner on dishes is judged according to the interval that a plurality of salt content data are respectively fallen into, and the sweetness requirement of the current dinner on desserts is judged according to the interval that a plurality of sugar content data are respectively fallen into. A pressure sensor can be arranged at the end part of the front end of the chopsticks body further, and the control module is used for judging the appetite of the current dinner according to the interval that pressure data are fallen into.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of tableware, and particularly relates to an intelligent chopsticks and a personalized dining information management system based on the chopsticks. Background technique [0002] Chopsticks are a must-have item in the daily life of Chinese people and have a history of thousands of years. With the development of technology and people's pursuit of quality of life, chopsticks also have many intelligent functions, such as temperature-sensitive components, light-emitting components, etc., which bring more convenience and fun to people's lives. However, these new functions are still focused on the chopsticks themselves, and they have not been integrated into the overall dining service, limiting its further development. [0003] Correspondingly, in mid-to-high-end restaurants, the service to customers is becoming more and more sophisticated. The management must grasp the dining preferences of the guests. However, due to different ...
