Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of gas stove technology, and in particular to a gas stove control method, device and gas stove. Background Technology

[0002] In daily life, gas stoves are commonly used in users' cooking activities. When the gas stove is working, gas enters the stove through the gas inlet pipe, and after being regulated by the gas valve (which is adjusted by the user through a knob), it enters the burner head. At the same time, it mixes with some air. This mixture of gas is sprayed out from the burner holes and ignited by the ignition device to form a flame. These flames are used to heat the cookware placed on the pot support.

[0003] In existing technology, when using a gas stove to stir-fry, make soup, or perform other cooking actions, users usually adjust the flame size by turning a knob to suit different cooking needs.

[0028] If the gas stove is currently in normal mode, it will switch to stir-fry mode upon receiving the first user's operation.

[0029] In one possible implementation, the control module is further configured to switch the stir-fry mode to normal mode if the gas stove's current operating mode is the stir-fry mode and no first user operation is received within a preset time.

[0030] In one possible implementation, the control module is specifically used for:

[0031] By adjusting the flow control valve of the gas stove, the amount of gas supplied can be adjusted, thereby switching the working mode of the gas stove.

[0044] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0045] The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” “fourth,” etc. (if present) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented, for example, in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having,” and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0046] In daily life, gas stoves are commonly used for cooking. When a gas stove is working, gas enters the stove through the gas inlet pipe, is regulated by the gas valve (which the user adjusts via a knob), and then enters the burner head, mixing with some air. This mixture is ejected from the burner's flame holes and ignited by the ignition device to form a flame, which is used to heat the cookware placed on the pot support. In existing technology, when using a gas stove for stir-frying, simmering soup, or other cooking activities, users typically adjust the flame size by turning a knob to suit different cooking needs. However, the efficiency of adjusting the operating mode of the gas stove in existing technology is relatively low.

[0047] The inventive concept of the gas stove control method, device, and gas stove provided in this application embodiment is that by switching the working mode of the gas stove according to the user's operation of the mechanical buttons on the gas stove knob, the working mode of the gas stove can be switched quickly, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency of the working mode of the gas stove; and, by setting mechanical buttons on the gas stove knob, the safety threat to the user caused by setting buttons on the panel is avoided by utilizing the existing knob design.

[0048] The following describes exemplary application scenarios of the embodiments of this application.

[0049] The gas stove control method provided in this application embodiment can be executed by the gas stove control device provided in this application embodiment. The gas stove control device provided in this application embodiment can be integrated into the gas stove, or the gas stove control device can be the gas stove itself. This application embodiment does not limit the structure, type, etc. of the gas stove. For example, the gas stove can be a single-burner gas stove, a double-burner gas stove, etc., and this application embodiment is not limited to these.

[0050] In one possible implementation, Figure 1 This is an exemplary application scenario architecture diagram provided in the embodiments of this application, such as... Figure 1As shown in the embodiments of this application, the gas stove control method is applied to a gas stove. Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an exemplary gas stove. This embodiment is only an example and is not limited to this. The gas stove includes a knob 11, a pot support 12, and a panel 13, with the knob 11 and pot support 12 located on the panel 13. The pot support 12 may include an ignition needle, an inner burner cap, an outer burner cap, etc., to provide heat to the cookware on the pot support 12. Additionally, the gas stove may also include a bottom shell, support legs, a fan control plate, etc., which will not be elaborated further in this embodiment. Each pot support 12 corresponds to a knob 11, which can control ignition, heat adjustment, and flameout operations on the pot support 12. The knob 11 may also be equipped with mechanical buttons (…). Figure 1 (Not shown in the image). For example, a mechanical button may be located on the rotatable structure of knob 11. This embodiment is merely an example and is not limited thereto.

[0051] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a gas stove control method according to an embodiment of this application. This method can be executed by a gas stove control device. The following description uses a controller as the executing entity to illustrate the gas stove control method. Figure 2 As shown, the gas stove control method provided in this application embodiment may include:

[0052] Step S101: Receive the first user operation on the mechanical button, which is located on the knob of the gas stove.

[0053] Step S102: Switch the working mode of the gas stove according to the operation of the first user.

[0054] The controller receives a first user operation (touching or pressing) on ​​the mechanical button located on the knob of the gas stove. Upon receiving the first user operation, it switches the gas stove's operating mode according to the user's input.

[0055] This application does not limit the specific implementation of switching the working mode of the gas stove according to the first user's operation. In one possible implementation, the first user operation is pressing a mechanical button, which switches the working mode of the gas stove from the current working mode to the first working mode. For example, if the first user operation is pressing the mechanical button twice consecutively, the working mode of the gas stove is switched to the second working mode. For another example, the working modes of the gas stove are set to include a first working mode, a second working mode, and a third working mode. The working modes of the gas stove are switched cyclically by pressing the mechanical button. For example, if the current working mode is the first working mode, then after receiving the first user operation, the first working mode is switched to the second working mode; if the current working mode is the second working mode, then after receiving the first user operation, the second working mode is switched to the third working mode; if the current working mode is the third working mode, then after receiving the first user operation, the third working mode is switched to the first working mode, and so on. This application embodiment is only an example and is not limited to this.

[0056] Furthermore, this application does not limit the number and type of operating modes of the gas stove. For example, the operating modes of the gas stove may include stir-fry mode, slow cooking mode, and normal mode. In stir-fry mode, the flame of the gas stove is larger, suitable for stir-frying needs; in slow cooking mode, the flame of the gas stove is smaller, suitable for stewing soup, making porridge, etc.; in normal mode, the flame of the gas stove can be adjusted according to the position of the knob to suit the user's desired flame size. This application embodiment is only an example and is not limited thereto.

[0057] In one possible implementation, the gas stove's operating modes include a stir-fry mode and a normal mode. Switching the gas stove's operating mode based on a first user's operation includes:

[0058] If the gas stove's current operating mode is stir-fry mode, then upon receiving the first user's operation, the stir-fry mode will be switched to normal mode; if the gas stove's current operating mode is normal mode, then upon receiving the first user's operation, the normal mode will be switched to stir-fry mode.

[0059] The controller in the gas stove can record or determine the current working mode of the gas stove. The controller can determine the current working mode of the gas stove by monitoring the state of the knob; or, the controller in the gas stove can also determine the current working mode of the gas stove by monitoring the amount of gas in the gas passage of the gas stove; or, the controller in the gas stove can record the current working mode of the gas stove each time a working mode switch occurs. The method of determining the current working mode of the gas stove in the embodiments of this application is not limited to these.

[0060] The gas stove has two operating modes: a high-heat stir-fry mode and a normal mode. In this embodiment, the user can switch between the high-heat stir-fry mode and the normal mode by using user operation, which is conducive to quickly entering the high-heat stir-fry mode and enhancing the user experience.

[0061] In this embodiment, the gas stove's operating mode is switched by the user's operation of the mechanical buttons on the gas stove's knob, achieving rapid switching of the gas stove's operating mode and improving the efficiency of adjusting the gas stove's operating mode. Furthermore, by setting mechanical buttons on the gas stove's knob, the existing knob design is utilized, avoiding the use of buttons on the panel, where the panel becomes quite hot after the gas stove has been operating for a period of time, which could easily burn the user during operation and affect the overall aesthetics.

[0062] Based on the above embodiments, taking the working modes including stir-fry mode and normal mode as an example, in one possible implementation, Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a gas stove control method according to another embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown in the embodiments of this application, the gas stove control method may further include:

[0063] Step S201: If the gas stove's current working mode is stir-fry mode and no first user operation is received within a preset time, then switch the stir-fry mode to normal mode.

[0064] In the high-heat mode, the gas stove produces a large flame. If food is cooked in this mode for an extended period, it may burn. To address this issue, this embodiment sets a preset time for the high-heat mode. If no user interaction is received within the preset time after the gas stove is in high-heat mode, the mode automatically switches to normal mode. Conversely, if a user interaction is received within the preset time, the mode switches back to normal mode immediately.

[0065] In this embodiment, a countdown timer can be used to determine the preset time. For example, when the gas stove's current operating mode is switched to stir-fry mode, a countdown timer is activated. The countdown timer's duration is a preset time. If no user operation is received before the countdown ends, the stir-fry mode is switched back to normal mode when the countdown ends.

[0066] In this embodiment, by setting a preset time, the time the gas stove is in the stir-fry mode is controlled, thereby preventing the user from forgetting to switch the gas stove's working mode, which would result in the stir-fry mode being too long and thus affecting the taste of the dishes.

[0067] Based on the working principle of a gas stove, the flame size can be controlled by adjusting the gas supply, thereby switching the stove's operating mode. Therefore, in one possible implementation, switching the gas stove's operating mode includes:

[0068] By adjusting the flow control valve of the gas stove, the amount of gas supplied can be adjusted, thereby switching the working mode of the gas stove.

[0069] For ease of explanation, in one possible implementation, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a gas stove provided in one embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the gas stove may include a knob, a controller, and a flow regulating valve. The controller detects the knob to obtain user operations on the knob and its mechanical buttons. For example, the user may perform an ignition operation by controlling the knob or a first user operation on the mechanical buttons. If the controller receives a first user operation on the mechanical buttons, it switches the operating mode of the gas stove. For instance, the gas flow regulating valve can be used to adjust the gas supply to switch the operating mode. For example, increasing the gas supply switches from normal mode to stir-fry mode, and decreasing the gas supply switches from stir-fry mode back to normal mode. This embodiment is merely an example.

[0070] In another possible implementation, the gas stove includes multiple gas channels and multiple nozzles. For example, the gas stove includes two gas channels, wherein the first gas channel supplies gas to the main nozzle of the gas stove, and the second gas channel supplies gas to the secondary nozzle of the gas stove. In this embodiment, the operating mode of the gas stove can be switched by controlling the gas volume of the first gas channel. For example, by increasing the gas volume of the first gas channel, the gas stove can be switched from normal mode to stir-fry mode.

[0071] like Figure 4 As shown, the gas stove may also include a pulse generator. When the gas stove's controller detects a user's ignition operation on the knob, it sends an electrical signal to the pulse generator to ignite the gas stove. This embodiment is merely an example and is not limited to this. In one possible implementation, the gas stove may also include a valve body, which connects the gas stove and the gas source, providing gas to the gas stove. The valve body may also be used to acquire the total gas volume of the gas stove and feed it back to the controller, allowing the controller to monitor the total gas volume of the gas stove.

[0072] In one possible implementation, the gas stove control method provided in this application further includes: determining the current working mode of the gas stove; and displaying an indicator light for the current working mode.

[0073] For ease of explanation, in one possible implementation, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a gas stove provided in another embodiment of this application. Figure 5 In order to be in Figure 1 Based on this, indicator lights 14 corresponding to each knob are added to the panel 13 of the gas stove. This embodiment of the application takes the gas stove's operating modes, including stir-fry mode, slow-cooking mode, and normal mode, as an example. Figure 5 As shown, indicator light 14 includes three indicator lights, each used to indicate its corresponding operating mode. The operating mode can also be displayed below each indicator light. Figure 5 (Not shown in the image), the embodiments in this application are only examples and are not limited thereto.

[0074] In this embodiment, an indicator light is used to show the current working mode, thereby prompting the user to check the working mode of the gas stove and enhancing the user experience.
