The technical features involved in the various embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0053] The embodiments of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0054] The present invention provides a method for detecting cookware of an electromagnetic heating device, an electromagnetic heating device, and a control device, which can accurately detect whether the placement position of the cookware is correct, and is beneficial to improving the reliability of the use of the electromagnetic heating device.

[0055] As Figure 1 shown, the electromagnetic heating device includes a cookware detection circuit, and the cookware detection circuit includes a power input terminal 100, a heating control circuit 200, a resonance circuit 300, and a synchronization circuit 400. The heating control circuit 200 is provided with a switching tube. The resonance circuit 300 is respectively connected to the power input terminal 100, the heating control circuit 200, and the synchronization circuit 400. The power input terminal 100 is used to provide grid power.

[0056] Specifically, the heating control circuit 200 is provided with a switching tube and a drive circuit 210. The switching tube is an IGBT. The drive circuit 210 is connected to the switching tube. The resonance circuit 300 includes an induction coil disk L1 and a resonance capacitor C1 connected in parallel. The synchronization circuit 400 is used to step down two signals output by the resonance circuit 300. The synchronization circuit 400 includes a first resistor R2 and a second resistor R3.

[0057] It should be noted that the cookware detection circuit further includes a rectifier 700. The rectifier 700 is connected to the power input terminal 100 and is used to convert the AC signal from the power input terminal 100 into a DC signal.

[0058] As Figure 2 shown, based on the above cookware detection circuit, an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention provides a method for detecting cookware of an electromagnetic heating device. The cookware detection method includes but is not limited to steps S110 to S160:

[0059] Step S110: Send a single pulse signal to the heating control circuit to cause the resonance circuit to oscillate;

[0060] It should be noted that a single pulse signal of 5 - 7 μs is sent first. This pulse signal acts on the heating control circuit 200, causing the switching tube to conduct for a pulse duration. After the induction coil disk L1 is charged, it decays and oscillates with the resonant capacitor C1, that is, the resonant circuit 300 is made to oscillate.

[0061] Step S120: Obtain the number of synchronous flips from the synchronous circuit;

[0062] It can be understood that after triggering a single pulse signal, the number of synchronous flips generated by the synchronous circuit 400 is obtained. Specifically, the number of synchronous flips is mainly calculated from the number of level flips generated by the first resistor R2 and the second resistor R3.

[0063] Step S130: Determine whether there is a cookware on the electromagnetic heating device according to the number of synchronous flips;

[0064] It should be noted that if an iron cookware is placed on the induction coil disk L1, the coupled oscillation damping becomes larger, the oscillation time is short, and the number of generated synchronous flips is small. If there is no cookware on the induction coil disk L1, or the cookware size is too small, or the cookware material is not suitable, the coupled oscillation damping is smaller, the oscillation time is long, and the number of generated synchronous flips is large. According to the number of synchronous flips, it can be preliminarily determined whether there is a cookware on the electromagnetic heating device, which is convenient for improving the detection efficiency.

[0065] Step S140: When it is determined that there is a cookware, send a low - power pulse signal for a first preset time to the heating control circuit;

[0066] If there is a cookware on the electromagnetic heating device, then send a low - power pulse signal for a first preset time to start induction heating, that is, continuously turn on a low - power pulse signal for a fixed time, which is convenient for data collection. It should be noted that the single - pulse time is generally about 7 - 10 μs, and the first preset time is relatively short, generally 1 - 2 ms. By sending short - time continuous pulses, it is possible to avoid generating excessive noise and affecting the user's experience.

[0067] Step S150: Obtain the sampling parameter value, where the sampling parameter value is used to reflect the position state of the cookware;

[0068] Step S160: Determine whether the placement position of the cookware is correct according to the sampling parameter value.

[0069] Specifically, the electromagnetic heating device mainly utilizes the electromagnetic induction characteristic for heating. Since the coupling characteristic between the cookware and the induction coil disk L1 is relatively stable, once the placement position of the cookware is incorrect, such as floating height or deviation, etc., the coupling parameters of the induction coil disk L1 will be changed, thereby affecting the sampling parameter values of the associated circuit, causing the sampling parameter values to change. By obtaining the sampling parameter values, the position state of the cookware can be reflected, and thus it can be determined whether the placement position of the cookware is correct.

[0070] It can be understood that the correct placement position of the cookware means that the placement position of the cookware is within the preset heating area of the electromagnetic heating device.

[0071] The cookware detection method of the electromagnetic heating device provided by the first aspect embodiment above sends a single pulse signal, obtains the number of synchronous flips, makes a preliminary judgment according to the number of synchronous flips to determine whether there is a cookware on the electromagnetic heating device. When it is determined that there is a cookware, a low-power pulse signal for the first preset time is sent to the heating control circuit 200, and at the same time the sampling parameter values are obtained. According to the sampling parameter values, the position state of the cookware can be accurately judged. By combining the number of synchronous flips and the sampling parameter values, it can be accurately detected whether the placement position of the cookware is correct, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the use of the electromagnetic heating device.

[0072] It should be noted that different from the existing structure mechanical switch detection and other means, the cookware detection method of the embodiment of the present invention does not need to add an additional detection structure, effectively reducing the design cost and material cost.

[0073] In the above cookware detection method, obtaining the sampling parameter values in step S150 includes at least one of the following:

[0074] Step S151: Obtain the C - pole voltage value of the switching tube, and use the C - pole voltage value as the sampling parameter value;

[0075] It should be noted that the switching tube is an IGBT, the C - pole voltage value of the switching tube is the collector voltage value of the IGBT. The C - pole of the switching tube is connected to the second resistor R3. By obtaining the C - pole voltage value of the switching tube, the position state of the cookware can be effectively reflected. If the placement position of the cookware is correct and the coupling inductance is consistent, the detected C - pole voltage value will be stable within the normal range. If the placement position of the cookware is incorrect (such as floating height or deviation, etc.), it will cause the coupling inductance to increase and the C - pole voltage value to become higher, exceeding the normal range value. Judging whether the placement position of the cookware is correct according to the C - pole voltage value can greatly improve the detection accuracy.

[0076] Step S152: Obtain the first resonance frequency from the synchronization circuit, and use the first resonance frequency as the sampling parameter value;

[0077] Specifically, the first resonance frequency is calculated through the first resistor R2 and the second resistor R3 in the synchronization circuit 400. If the placement position of the cookware is incorrect, it will cause the coupling inductance to increase, then the first resonance frequency will become lower and fail to reach the normal range value. Since the resonance frequency is not affected by peripheral factors such as the grid voltage and is only related to the coupling coefficient of the cookware, by obtaining the first resonance frequency, the position state of the cookware can be effectively reflected, and the judgment reliability is high.

[0078] It should be noted that the cookware detection circuit further includes a current detection circuit 500 and a voltage detection circuit 600. The current detection circuit 500 is disposed between the power input terminal 100 and the resonance circuit 300, and the voltage detection circuit 600 is connected to the power input terminal 100. The voltage detection circuit 600 is used to obtain the grid voltage detection value from the power input terminal 100. The current detection circuit 500 includes a sampling resistor RJ1 and a sampling capacitor C3 connected in parallel.

[0079] Step S153: Obtain the first current value from the current detection circuit, adjust the first current value according to the grid voltage detection value to obtain the second current value, and use the second current value as the sampling parameter value.

[0080] It should be noted that the voltage detection value is obtained by voltage division sampling through the third resistor R4, the fourth resistor R5, and the fifth resistor R6, and can effectively reflect the real-time grid voltage detection value. If the placement position of the cookware is correct, the detected first current value will be stable within the normal range. If the placement position of the cookware is incorrect, the first current value will not reach the normal range value. By obtaining the first current value and making corresponding adjustment and value taking according to the real-time grid voltage detection value, the adjusted second current value is obtained, avoiding the current difference caused by the grid voltage difference at the same pulse width time, and can effectively improve the reliability of the sampling parameter value.

[0081] As Figure 3 shown, in the above cookware detection method, the low-power pulse signals are sent multiple times at intervals of the second preset time. Obtaining the first resonance frequency from the synchronization circuit in step S152 includes, but is not limited to, step S210 and step S220:

[0082] Step S210: Obtain the second resonance frequency from the synchronization circuit multiple times;

[0083] Step S220: Calculate the average value of all the second resonance frequencies to obtain the first resonance frequency.

[0084] It should be noted that by continuously sending low-power pulse signals to the heating control circuit 200 multiple times, and each time obtaining the second resonance frequency through the synchronization circuit 400, accumulating the second resonance frequencies obtained multiple times and calculating the average value to obtain the first resonance frequency, by using the calculated first resonance frequency as the sampling parameter value, the reliability of the sampling parameter value can be effectively improved, thereby improving the detection accuracy. Specifically, continuously turn on the low-power pulse three times, with an interval of 0.5 - 1 s each time, then three second resonance frequencies can be obtained, and the first resonance frequency is obtained by calculating the average value of the three second resonance frequencies.

[0085] As Figure 4 shown, in the above-mentioned cookware detection method, the low-power pulse signal is sent multiple times at intervals of the second preset time. Obtaining the first current value from the current detection circuit in step S153 includes, but is not limited to, steps S310 and S320:

[0086] Step S310: Obtain the third current value from the current detection circuit multiple times;

[0087] Step S320: Calculate the average value of all the third current values to obtain the first current value.

[0088] It should be noted that by continuously sending low-power pulse signals to the heating control circuit 200 multiple times, and each time obtaining the third current value through the current detection circuit 500, accumulating the third current values obtained multiple times and calculating the average value to obtain the first current value, the reliability of the sampling parameter value can be effectively improved, thereby improving the detection accuracy. Specifically, continuously turn on the low-power pulse three times, with an interval of 0.5 - 1 s each time, then three third current values can be obtained, and the first current value is obtained by calculating the average value of the three third current values. The first current value is adjusted according to the grid voltage detection value to obtain the second current value, and the second current value is used as the sampling parameter value.

[0089] As Figure 5 shown, in the above-mentioned cookware detection method, determining whether there is a cookware on the electromagnetic heating device according to the synchronous flip number in step S130 includes, but is not limited to, steps S410 and S420:

[0090] Step S410: When the synchronous flip number is less than the preset flip number, it is determined that there is a cookware;

[0091] Step S420: When the synchronous flip number is greater than or equal to the preset flip number, it is determined that there is no cookware or the cookware is abnormal.

[0092] It should be noted that if an iron pot is placed on the induction coil disk L1, the coupled oscillation damping becomes larger, the oscillation time is short, and the number of synchronous flips generated is small. If no pot is placed on the induction coil disk L1, or the pot size is too small, or the pot material is not suitable, the coupled oscillation damping is small, the oscillation time is long, and the number of synchronous flips generated is large. The preset number of flips is obtained through multiple experiments. When the number of synchronous flips is less than the preset number of flips, it is determined that there is a pot. When the number of synchronous flips is greater than or equal to the preset number of flips, it is determined that there is no pot or the pot has an abnormality, and a fault signal is output. Based on the number of synchronous flips, it is possible to preliminarily determine whether there is a pot on the electromagnetic heating device, which is beneficial to improving the detection efficiency.

[0093] As Figure 6 shown, in the above pot detection method, in step S160, determining whether the placement position of the pot is correct according to the sampling parameter value includes, but is not limited to, step S510 and step S520:

[0094] Step S510: When the sampling parameter value is within the preset range, it is determined that the placement position of the pot is correct;

[0095] Step S520: When the sampling parameter value is outside the preset range, it is determined that the placement position of the pot is incorrect.

[0096] It should be noted that if the sampling parameter value is within the preset range, it means that the sampling parameter value reaches the normal range value, and it is determined that the placement position of the pot is correct. If the sampling parameter value is outside the preset range, it means that the sampling parameter value is not the normal range value, and it is determined that the placement position of the pot is incorrect. By setting the preset range, the sampling parameter value is allowed to fluctuate within a certain range, and the judgment basis is more flexible. It can be understood that the sampling parameter value being outside the preset range can mean that the sampling parameter value is greater than the normal range value or less than the normal range value.

[0097] In the above pot detection method, it further includes:

[0098] When it is determined that the placement position of the pot is correct, controlling the electromagnetic heating device to start heating;

[0099] When it is determined that the placement position of the pot is incorrect, outputting a fault signal and controlling the electromagnetic heating device to stop heating.

[0100] It can be understood that if the placement position of the pot is correct, the electromagnetic heating device can be controlled to start normal heating to ensure the stability of the operation of the electromagnetic heating device. If the placement position of the pot is incorrect, outputting a fault signal and controlling the electromagnetic heating device to stop heating can effectively protect the electromagnetic heating device and the pot.

[0101] As Figures 7 to 9As shown, in one embodiment, when the electromagnetic heating device is started and the pan detection work begins, a single pulse signal is sent to obtain the synchronous flip number. The preset flip number is 7. When the synchronous flip number ≥ 7, it indicates that there is no cookware or the cookware is abnormal, and a fault is reported. When the synchronous flip number < 7, it indicates that there is cookware, and a low-power pulse signal of 2 ms is sent to obtain the sampling parameter values (C-pole voltage value, first resonance frequency, second current value). If the sampling parameter values are within the preset range, it indicates that the placement position of the cookware is correct and normal heating starts. If the sampling parameter values are outside the preset range, it indicates that the placement position of the cookware is incorrect, a fault is reported, and heating is stopped simultaneously.

[0102] The second aspect embodiment of the present invention provides an electromagnetic heating device. The electromagnetic heating device includes a pan detection circuit. The pan detection circuit includes a controller MCU, a power input terminal 100, a heating control circuit 200, a resonance circuit 300, and a synchronization circuit 400. The controller MCU is respectively connected to the power input terminal 100, the heating control circuit 200, and the synchronization circuit 400. The resonance circuit 300 is respectively connected to the power input terminal 100, the heating control circuit 200, and the synchronization circuit 400. The controller MCU is used to execute the pan detection method of the first aspect embodiment as above. For example, execute the Figure 2 method steps S110 to S160 in Figure 3 method steps S210 and S220 in Figure 4 method steps S310 and S320 in Figure 5 method steps S410 and S420 in Figure 6 method steps S510 and S520 in. By sending a single pulse signal through the controller MCU, obtaining the synchronous flip number, and making a preliminary judgment based on the synchronous flip number to determine whether there is cookware on the electromagnetic heating device. When it is determined that there is cookware, a low-power pulse signal of the first preset time is sent to the heating control circuit 200, and at the same time, the sampling parameter values are obtained. Based on the sampling parameter values, the position state of the cookware can be accurately judged. By combining the synchronous flip number and the sampling parameter values, it is possible to accurately detect whether the placement position of the cookware is correct, which is beneficial to improving the reliability of the use of the electromagnetic heating device.

[0103] It should be noted that the electromagnetic heating device can be products such as an induction cooker and a stir-fry machine that utilize electromagnetic induction characteristics for heating, and special cookware needs to be used in combination.
