[0042] The realization of the object, functional characteristics and advantages of the present invention will be further described with reference to the embodiments and the accompanying drawings. Specific embodiments

[0043] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0044] Since the cooking machine generally adopts a fully enclosed design to improve the portability and sealing performance of the device. This causes the motor of the cooking machine to be in a closed space during operation. As a result, the heat dissipation effect of the motor is poor. And overheating of the motor easily leads to damage to the motor and shortens the service life of the motor. There is such a defect that the service life of the motor of the cooking machine is relatively short.

[0045] To solve the above defects, the embodiments of the present invention propose a control method of a cooking machine, a cooking machine and a computer-readable storage medium. In the embodiments of the present invention, the main solution of the control method of the cooking machine is as follows:

[0046] Obtain the working voltage drop value and / or battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset time period;

[0047] If the value of the working voltage drop and / or the value of the battery power drop is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, control the cooking machine to stop running.

[0048] Since there may be a correlation between the value of the working voltage drop and / or the value of the battery power drop and the value of the motor temperature rise, it is selected to control the cooking machine to stop running when the value of the working voltage drop and / or the value of the battery power drop is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the cooking machine runs under over-temperature conditions. In this way, the effect of extending the service life of the motor of the cooking machine is achieved.

[0049] As Figure 1 shown, Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the hardware operating environment of the cooking machine involved in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0050] The terminal in the embodiment of the present invention may be a terminal device such as a cooking machine.

[0051] As Figure 1 shown, the cooking machine includes a stirring assembly 1001, a memory 1002 and a processor 1003. Optionally, the stirring assembly 1001 may include a motor and a stirring knife connected to the motor. The processor 1003 can execute a whipping operation by controlling the start of the motor. When the whipping operation is completed, the processor 1003 can control the motor to turn off; in this embodiment, a preset whipping number and a control program of the cooking machine can be stored in the memory 1002.

[0052] Optionally, the cooking machine described in this embodiment may further include a power module. The power module is connected to the motor, the memory 1002 and the processor 1003. The power module provides power for the motor, the memory 1002 and the processor 1003. The power module in this embodiment may be a battery or a power interface. The cooking machine is connected to an external power supply through the power interface; the battery may be provided with a charging interface to provide power for the battery. To avoid the motor running idly due to device failure, a first switch module and a second switch module are connected in series between the motor and the power module of the cooking machine. The first switch module is used to control the start and stop of the motor. The second switch module is in a normally closed state. When the first switch fails, the motor will run idly. At this time, the current of the motor is too large, and the second switch can be used to cut off the connection between the motor and the power module.

[0053] Optionally, the cooking machine described in this embodiment may further include a user interface connected to the processor 1003. The user interface may be a button or a touch screen. The cooking machine can be controlled through the button or the touch screen.

[0054] When the control program of the cooking machine in the memory 1002 is executed by the processor 1003, the following steps are implemented:

[0055] After the blender performs a whipping operation, update the continuous whipping times of the blender.

[0056] When the continuous whipping times are greater than a preset number, switch to a locked state, where the blender cannot start the motor in the locked state.

[0057] The control method of the blender in this embodiment can run in different types of blenders, as follows Figure 2a and Figure 2b shown, or as Figure 2c shown, to illustrate different types of blenders:

[0058] Exemplarily, as Figure 2a and Figure 2b shown, the blender includes a cup body 100 and a cup cover assembly 200. The cup cover assembly 200 includes a housing 210 and a stirring assembly 220 disposed in the housing 210. The cup body 100 is provided with a cup mouth 110. The housing 210 of the cup cover assembly 200 can be covered on the cup mouth 110. When the housing 210 is covered on the cup mouth 110, at least a part of the stirring assembly 220 extends into the cup body 100. An installation space is formed in the housing 210. The stirring assembly 220 includes a motor 222 and a stirring blade 221. The motor 222 is disposed in the installation space, and a connecting shaft of the motor 222 passes through the housing 210 and is connected to the stirring blade 221. By arranging the stirring assembly on the cup cover, the blender can be used as a portable tumbler, enabling the user to use it at any location. The memory and the processor can be located in the main control board of the blender, and the main control board is located in the housing of the cup cover assembly.

[0059] Optionally, the stirring assembly includes a motor 222 and a stirring blade 221. An installation space is formed in the housing 210. The motor 222 is disposed in the installation space, and a connecting shaft of the motor 222 passes through the housing 210 and is connected to the stirring blade 221. This structure enables the stirring blade to be located in the cup body 100 when the cup cover assembly 200 is covered on the cup mouth 110.

[0060] Optionally, a whipping groove is formed on the surface of the housing located in the cup body, and the connecting shaft of the driving member passes through the housing and is located in the whipping groove. By providing the whipping groove, the food ingredients can be fully whipped in the whipping groove, and the whipping effect is better.

[0061] Exemplarily, as Figure 2cThe shown food processor includes a main body 300, a stirring assembly 400 installed on the main body 300, and a mixing cup 500 installed on the main body 300. The main body 300 includes a housing (not shown in the figure) with a main control board (not shown in the figure) disposed therein. The stirring assembly 400 includes a motor 410 and a stirring blade 420. An installation space is formed within the housing. The motor 410 is disposed within the installation space, and a connecting shaft of the motor 410 passes through the housing and is connected to the stirring blade 420, as Figure 5 shown, the mixing cup 500 of the food processor is located above the main body 300, and is relatively stable during stirring. The memory and the processor may be located within the main control board of the food processor, and the main control board is located within the housing of the main body 300.

[0062] The above Figure 2a , 2b , 2c are exemplary embodiments of the food processor, and do not limit the control method of the above food processor. The control method of the above food processor can be applied to any food processor provided with a stirring assembly.

[0063] As Figure 1 shown, a memory 1002 as a computer storage medium may include an operating system, a user interface module, and a control program for the food processor.

[0064] In Figure 1 the shown terminal, a processor 1003 may be configured to call the control program for the food processor stored in the memory 1002, and perform the following operations:

[0065] Obtain the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the food processor within a preset duration;

[0066] If the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, control the food processor to stop operating.

[0067] Further, the processor 1003 may call the control program for the food processor stored in the memory 1002, and further perform the following operations:

[0068] Control the food processor to enter a locked state, wherein the food processor cannot be started in the locked state.

[0069] Further, the processor 1003 may call the control program for the food processor stored in the memory 1002, and further perform the following operations:

[0070] Obtain the cumulative duration of the food processor operating in the locked state;

[0071] If the cumulative duration is greater than a first duration, control the food processor to exit the locked state.

[0072] Further, the processor 1003 may call the control program of the cooking machine stored in the memory 1002 and further perform the following operations:

[0073] During the whipping process of the cooking machine, perform the step of obtaining the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration.

[0074] Further, the processor 1003 may call the control program of the cooking machine stored in the memory 1002 and further perform the following operations:

[0075] Obtain the working voltage and / or the battery power of the battery in real time;

[0076] If the working voltage is greater than the first working voltage, and / or the battery power is greater than the first battery power, perform the step of obtaining the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration.

[0077] Further, the processor 1003 may call the control program of the cooking machine stored in the memory 1002 and further perform the following operations:

[0078] If the working voltage is less than or equal to the second working voltage, and / or the battery power is less than or equal to the second battery power, control the cooking machine to perform a shutdown action, where the first working voltage is greater than the second working voltage, and the first battery power is greater than the second battery power.

[0079] Further, the processor 1003 may call the control program of the cooking machine stored in the memory 1002 and further perform the following operations:

[0080] Output a prompt message indicating that the battery power is insufficient to prompt the user to connect an external power supply to the cooking machine.

[0081] Further, the processor 1003 may call the control program of the cooking machine stored in the memory 1002 and further perform the following operations:

[0082] Obtain the current of the motor;

[0083] When the current is greater than a preset current, control the second switch module to disconnect.

[0084] Refer to Figure 3 , in an embodiment of the control method of the cooking machine of the present invention, the control method of the cooking machine includes the following steps:

[0085] Step S10, obtain the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration;

[0086] Step S20: If the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, control the food processor to stop running.

[0087] In this embodiment, the subject that executes the control method of the food processor may be a food processor, and the food processor may be a portable food processor. In order to ensure the sealing and waterproof performance of the portable food processor, the portable food processor generally adopts a sealed design. Due to the sealed design of the portable food processor, the motor of the portable food processor is operated in a closed space, resulting in poor heat dissipation of the motor. When the motor runs in an overheated state, the motor will be damaged, resulting in a shortened service life of the motor.

[0088] When a portable food processor is in use, the built-in lithium-ion battery is generally used as the power source of the food processor. As the continuous discharge time of the lithium-ion battery increases, its operating voltage will gradually decrease, and the battery power will gradually decrease. As the continuous working time of the food processor increases, its own temperature will gradually increase.

[0089] Based on the above basic principle of the food processor, when the food processor is turned on, the working voltage drop value and / or battery power drop value of the food processor's battery within a preset time period can be obtained in real time. The preset time period is a fixed value pre-stored in the storage medium of the food processor. For example, it can be set to any value in [5,15] min, and illustratively, it can be set to 5 min, 7 min, 10 min, 12 min or 15 min.

[0090] If the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold value, it can be determined that the motor is in an overheated state at the current moment, so the food processor is controlled to stop running to avoid the food processor continuing to run, causing the motor temperature to continue to rise, thereby damaging the motor.

[0091] Specifically, the preset threshold value includes a first preset threshold value corresponding to the working voltage drop value and / or a second preset threshold value corresponding to the battery power drop value. The preset threshold value is a value determined by experiment according to the actual working condition of the food processor. It can be understood that within the preset time, the working voltage drop value of the food processor and the battery power drop value are positively correlated with the motor temperature rise value.

[0092] Exemplarily, when the cooking machine is started for the first time or operates in the test mode, the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine can be monitored in real time. And the temperature rise value of the motor is monitored. When the temperature rise value of the motor reaches the safety threshold (for example, 65k), the working voltage drop value corresponding to the battery at that moment is obtained as the first preset threshold, and / or the battery power drop value corresponding to the current moment is obtained as the second preset threshold. And the first preset threshold and / or the second preset threshold are stored in the cooking machine. When it is detected during the operation of the cooking machine that the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the cooking machine is controlled to stop running.

[0093] It should be noted that a first switch module and a second switch module are connected in series between the motor and the battery of the cooking machine. The first switch module is used to control the start and stop of the motor, and the second switch module is in a normally closed state. When it is necessary to control the cooking machine to stop running, the first switch can be controlled to open, thereby controlling the motor to turn off. After the first switch is disconnected, the current of the motor can be obtained. If the current of the motor is greater than the preset current at this time, it is determined that the first switch is faulty and the motor cannot be turned off. Thus, the second switch module can be controlled to exit the normally closed state, that is, the second switch module is controlled to enter the port mode. Thus, the motor is controlled to turn off through the second switch module.

[0094] In the technical solution disclosed in this embodiment, first, the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset time period are obtained. If the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, the cooking machine is controlled to stop running. Since there is a correlation between the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value and the temperature rise value of the motor, it is selected to control the cooking machine to stop running when the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value is greater than or equal to the preset threshold, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the cooking machine runs under over-temperature conditions. In this way, the effect of extending the service life of the motor of the cooking machine is achieved.

[0095] Refer to Figure 4 , based on the above embodiment, in another embodiment, after step S20, it further includes:

[0096] Step S30: Control the cooking machine to enter the locked state, where the cooking machine cannot be started in the locked state.

[0097] In this embodiment, when the value of the working voltage drop and / or the value of the battery power drop is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, it is determined that the current temperature of the motor is too high, so the cooking machine is controlled to stop running. After the cooking machine stops running, the cooking machine is controlled to enter a locked state. Wherein, after the cooking machine enters the locked state, the user cannot start the cooking machine again. In this way, the phenomenon that the motor is damaged due to the user's misoperation causing the motor to run in an overheated environment is avoided.

[0098] As an alternative implementation, after the cooking machine enters the locked state, a prompt message indicating that the motor is overheated and the cooking machine is locked can be output to prompt the user that the cooking machine is currently in the locked state, thus achieving the effect of avoiding the user's misoperation.

[0099] Optionally, referring to Figure 5 , in an alternative implementation manner of this embodiment, after step S30, the following steps are further included:

[0100] Step S31: Obtain the cumulative duration of the cooking machine running in the locked state;

[0101] Step S32: If the cumulative duration is greater than the first duration, control the cooking machine to exit the locked state.

[0102] In this implementation manner, after the cooking machine enters the locked state, the cumulative duration of the cooking machine running in the locked state can be counted in real time through the built-in clock of the cooking machine. When the cumulative duration is greater than the first duration, it can be determined that the motor of the cooking machine has cooled down, so the cooking machine is controlled to exit the locked state. Since the locked state can be automatically exited without the user manually unlocking the cooking machine. Thus, the effect of simplifying the usage steps of the cooking machine is achieved.

[0103] It can be understood that the first duration is a value custom-set by the product manufacturer, for example, it can be set to any value in the range of 2 - 10 minutes.

[0104] As an alternative implementation, after the cooking machine exits the locked state, a prompt message indicating that the cooking machine has exited the locked state can be output to prompt the user that the cooking machine has currently exited the locked state, thus achieving the effect of avoiding the user's misoperation.

[0105] Optionally, referring to Figure 6 , in another alternative implementation manner of this embodiment, after step S32, the following steps are further included:

[0106] Step S33: Obtain the cumulative operation duration of the cooking machine;

[0107] Step S34: If the cumulative operation duration is less than the second duration, control the cooking machine to start again.

[0108] In this embodiment, the cumulative operation duration of the cooking machine can be obtained, where the cumulative operation duration refers to the cumulative stirring duration of the cooking machine during one cooking process. When the cumulative operation duration is less than the second preset duration, after the cooking machine exits the locked state, the cooking machine can be automatically controlled to start again for stirring.

[0109] It can be understood that the second duration can be determined according to the current cooking mode of the cooking machine. Different cooking modes can correspond to different second preset durations. For example, when the cooking mode is the juice mode, the second preset duration can be set to 8 minutes, and when the cooking mode is the soybean milk mode, the second duration can be set to 12 minutes.

[0110] Since it is possible to control the cooking machine to start again if the cumulative operation duration is less than the second duration after exiting the locked mode. Thus, there is no need for the user to manually start the cooking machine again, achieving the effect of simplifying the control steps of the cooking machine.

[0111] Based on any of the above embodiments, in another embodiment, during the stirring process of the cooking machine, the step of obtaining the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration is executed.

[0112] In this embodiment, since the motor is used to drive the stirring blade, when the cooking machine is not in the stirring mode, that is, when it is not in the stirring process, the motor does not work, so there will be no overheating phenomenon. Therefore, when the cooking machine is not in the stirring mode, there is no need to protect the motor. Thus, the step of obtaining the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration may not be executed. When the cooking machine is in the stirring mode, the stirring blade is driven by the motor. Therefore, the motor is in the working state and may overheat, so the step of obtaining the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration can be executed.

[0113] In the technical solution disclosed in this embodiment, if the cooking machine is running in the stirring mode, the step of obtaining the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration is executed. Since the step of obtaining the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset duration is only executed in the stirring mode, the effect of reducing the data processing amount of the cooking machine is achieved.

[0114] Refer to Figure 7 , based on any of the above embodiments, in yet another embodiment, before the step S10, the following is further included:

[0115] Step S40: Obtain the working voltage and / or battery power of the battery in real time;

[0116] Step S50: Determine whether it satisfies that the working voltage is greater than the first working voltage and / or the battery power is greater than the first battery power.

[0117] In this embodiment, when the battery does not enter the stage of rapid voltage drop, the voltage drop under a constant load will show a linear or approximately linear trend. After the voltage inflection point appears, the power will drop very severely and will not be sufficient to maintain several cycles. Therefore, the power consumption of the motor or device will not exceed the standard, that is, the motor will not overheat. Therefore, the voltage inflection point of the battery can be used as the first working voltage, and the power inflection point of the battery can be used as the first battery power. When the working voltage is greater than the first working voltage and / or the battery power is greater than the first battery power, obtain the working voltage drop value and / or battery power drop value of the blender's battery within a preset time period, and then when the working voltage drop value and / or the battery power drop value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold, control the blender to stop running. To avoid the motor from overheating.

[0118] Optionally, referring to Figure 8 , in an alternative embodiment of this embodiment, after step S50, it further includes:

[0119] Step S60: Determine whether it satisfies that the working voltage is less than or equal to the second working voltage and / or the battery power is less than or equal to the second battery power;

[0120] Step S70: Control the blender to perform a shutdown operation.

[0121] In this embodiment, when the battery is over-discharged, it will cause damage to the battery and reduce the service life of the battery. Therefore, when the working voltage is less than or equal to the second working voltage and / or the battery power is less than or equal to the second battery power, control the blender to perform a shutdown operation to avoid the phenomenon of battery damage caused by over-discharging the battery. It can be understood that the first working voltage is greater than the second working voltage, and the first battery power is greater than the second battery power. The second working voltage and the second battery power can be determined according to the battery characteristics of the battery used in each blender. This embodiment does not make specific limitations on this.

[0122] Optionally, referring to Figure 9 , in another alternative embodiment of this embodiment, after step S50, it further includes:

[0123] Step S80: Output a prompt message indicating that the battery power is insufficient to prompt the user to connect an external power source to the cooking machine.

[0124] In this embodiment, the prompt message indicating that the battery power is insufficient can also be output through voice or an indicator light, etc., to prompt the user to connect an external power source to the cooking machine and charge the battery of the cooking machine.

[0125] In the technical solution disclosed in this embodiment, the working voltage and / or battery power of the battery are obtained in real time. When the working voltage is greater than the first working voltage and / or the battery power is greater than the first battery power, the step of obtaining the voltage drop value and / or battery power drop value of the battery of the cooking machine within a preset time period is executed. This achieves the effect of reducing the data processing amount of the cooking machine.
