[0002] If the cooking fumes generated during kitchen cooking are not discharged in time, it will have a great impact on the human body. Traditional range hoods use buttons for operation, which is extremely inconvenient, and there will also be hygiene problems when people manually operate the buttons. Existing intelligent control methods for range hoods include voice recognition, gesture recognition, infrared method recognition, etc., in order to free hands and achieve "touchless operation" of the range hood. However, voice and gesture recognition still have problems such as interference, misjudgment and inconvenient operation, and the existing infrared automatic smoke control on the market, relying only on a single target energy change, is also difficult to cover all application scenarios and still has a high probability of misjudgment. For example, when users cook with various cookware, how to quickly distinguish different cookware and take the differences of the cookware into account as influencing factors for smoke volume prediction, so as to obtain a more accurate predicted smoke volume in various cooking scenarios.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0046] The flowcharts shown in the accompanying drawings are only illustrative examples, and do not necessarily include all the contents and operations / steps, nor do they necessarily need to be executed in the described order. For example, some operations / steps can be decomposed, combined, or partially merged, so the actual execution order may be changed according to the actual situation.
[0047] The embodiments of the present application provide a control method, a system, a range hood, and a computer-readable storage medium for a range hood. Among them, the control method of the range hood can be applied to a range hood with range hood and stove linkage. First, the range hood will be described below.
[0048] Please refer to Figure 1-2 , Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the range hood and stove linkage system of the present application. Among them, the range hood and the stove are communicatively connected. As Figure 2 shown: A range hood 10 provided by an embodiment of the present application: The range hood includes a housing 101, a temperature sensor 102, a camera, and a range hood main machine and a range hood fan inside the range hood. The temperature sensor 102 is installed on the housing 101. The temperature sensor 102 can detect the temperature inside the pot below the range hood and the ambient temperature of the environment where the range hood is located. The camera can collect the image of the pot body of the cookware, and the range hood main machine determines the size of the pot body of the cookware according to the pot body image. The range hood main machine obtains the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature measured by the temperature sensor in real time, and the fire power information reported by the stove in real time, and determines the weights of the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature, and the fire power information according to the size of the pot body. The range hood main machine calculates the predicted smoke volume according to the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature, the fire power information, and different weight factors, and finally determines the operating parameters of the range hood fan according to the predicted smoke volume, and the range hood fan operates according to the determined operating parameters.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 It is a schematic flowchart of the control method of the range hood provided by an embodiment of the present application. The control method of the range hood may include steps S101 to step S106, etc., specifically as follows:
[0050] S101. Obtain the fire power information reported by the stove in real time.
[0051] Specifically, the cooking appliance can actively report the firepower information to the range hood, or the range hood can actively obtain the firepower information of the cooking appliance.
[0052] In some embodiments, the cooking appliance for range hood linkage includes a firepower detection module, which is used to detect the firepower of the first burner and the second burner on the cooking appliance in real time to obtain firepower information.
[0053] In some embodiments, the cooking appliance further includes a Bluetooth communication module, and the cooking appliance sends the firepower information to the range hood through the Bluetooth communication module.
[0054] S102. Obtain the ambient temperature of the environment where the range hood is located measured by the temperature sensor in real time.
[0055] Specifically, a temperature sensor is pre-installed on the range hood, and the temperature sensor is communicatively connected to the range hood main unit. The temperature sensor can detect the temperature inside the pot under the range hood and the ambient temperature of the environment where the range hood is located in real time, and send the ambient temperature and the temperature inside the pot to the range hood main unit in real time.
[0056] It should be noted that the range hood main unit can also actively obtain the data of the temperature inside the pot and the ambient temperature measured by the temperature sensor.
[0057] In some embodiments, the temperature sensor is an infrared thermopile sensor. According to the infrared thermopile sensor, the temperature inside the pot and the ambient temperature under the range hood can be accurately and quickly detected.
[0058] S103. Determine the size of the pot under the range hood according to the pot body image collected by the camera.
[0059] Specifically, a camera is pre-installed on the range hood. The camera sends the collected pot body image to the range hood main unit, or the range hood main unit can actively obtain the pot body image. The range hood main unit performs image analysis on the collected pot body image and determines the size of the pot according to the image analysis result.
[0060] In some embodiments, the camera is only activated to collect the pot body image when the firepower information reported by the cooking appliance in real time is obtained, so as to avoid the camera from collecting the pot body image when the cooking appliance is not working and save energy consumption.
[0061] Obtaining the information of the pot under the range hood by collecting the pot body image with the camera can quickly and conveniently determine the characteristics of the pot body, and further make the predicted smoke volume more accurate in the case of cooking with various pot bodies.
[0062] S104. Determine the smoke volume influence strategy according to the size of the pot body. Different pot body sizes correspond to different smoke volume influence strategies. Different smoke volume influence strategies include smoke volume influence factors and influence factors corresponding to the smoke volume influence factors. The smoke volume influence factors include the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature, and the firepower information.
[0063] Among them, the influence factors include the weight of the temperature inside the pot, the weight of the ambient temperature, and the weight of the firepower.
[0064] Exemplarily, when cooking with a small pot, due to the small bottom of the pot, the temperature inside the pot collected is relatively high compared to the actual temperature inside the pot because the small pot body causes the target surface coverage to include positions with higher temperatures such as the stove head and the edge of the pot body. At this time, it is necessary to appropriately reduce the weight of the temperature inside the pot when calculating the smoke volume, so as to obtain a more accurate smoke volume calculation result.
[0065] In some embodiments, when cooking with a small pot, the weight value corresponding to the temperature inside the pot is X1, the weight corresponding to the ambient temperature is X2, and the weight corresponding to the stove firepower is X3. The specific values of X1, X2, and X3 can be determined according to experiments.
[0066] In some embodiments, when cooking with a medium-sized pot, the weight value corresponding to the temperature inside the pot is Y1, the weight corresponding to the ambient temperature is Y2, and the weight corresponding to the stove firepower is Y3. The specific values of Y1, Y2, and Y3 can be determined according to experiments.
[0067] In some embodiments, when cooking with a large pot, the weight value corresponding to the temperature inside the pot is Z1, the weight corresponding to the ambient temperature is Z2, and the weight corresponding to the stove firepower is Z3. The specific values of Z1, Z2, and Z3 can be determined according to experiments.
[0068] In some embodiments, when the weight value corresponding to the temperature inside the pot is W1, the weight corresponding to the ambient temperature is W2, and the weight corresponding to the stove firepower is W3, the weight range is:
[0069] W1 + W2 + W3 = 100%
[0070] Exemplarily, when cooking with a small pot, the weights assigned to the three smoke volume influence factors are: W1 = 50%, W2 = 25%, W3 = 25%.
[0071] In some embodiments, according to the pot body image, the shape of the pot can also be determined. Since different pot body shapes will also affect the calculation result of the smoke volume. For example, for a square pot compared to a round pot, there is more upward-flowing fire along the edge of the pot body, resulting in too high a temperature below the range hood panel. At this time, the ambient temperature collected by the sensor will be higher than the ambient temperature when the pot body is large. Therefore, the pot body shape factor is introduced, and the smoke volume influence strategy is determined in combination with the pot body size.
[0072] Specifically, determine the shape of the pot body of the cookware based on the pot body image; determine the smoke volume influence strategy according to the size and shape of the pot body. It should be noted that different pot body sizes and different pot body shapes correspond to different smoke volume influence strategies. Different said smoke volume influence strategies include smoke volume influence factors and influence factors corresponding to the smoke volume influence factors. The smoke volume influence factors include the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature, and the firepower information.
[0073] In some embodiments, since the weight of the pot body cannot be reflected in the pot body image, and different pot body weights will also affect the calculation result of the smoke volume, the pot body weight factor is introduced to calibrate the size of the pot body determined by the pot body image, and the smoke volume influence strategy is determined in combination with the size of the pot body.
[0074] Specifically, obtain the pot body weight of the cookware collected by the weight sensor preset on the cooktop; determine the smoke volume influence strategy according to the size of the pot body and the pot body weight. It should be noted that different pot body sizes and different pot body weights correspond to different smoke volume influence strategies. Different said smoke volume influence strategies include smoke volume influence factors and influence factors corresponding to the smoke volume influence factors. The smoke volume influence factors include the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature, and the firepower information.
[0075] Assign different influence factors to the temperature inside the pot, the firepower information, and the ambient temperature in the calculation of the smoke volume according to the different sizes, shapes, and weights of the pot body of the cookware, so as to avoid errors in the calculation of the smoke volume caused by different pot bodies.
[0076] S105. Based on the smoke volume influence strategy, determine the predicted smoke volume according to the ambient temperature, the firepower information, and the temperature inside the pot of the cookware measured in real time by the temperature sensor below the range hood.
[0077] Specifically, according to the influence factors in the determined smoke volume influence strategy, calculate the predicted smoke volume according to the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature, the firepower information, and the corresponding influence factors.
[0078] Exemplarily, when the weight value corresponding to the temperature inside the pot is W1, the weight corresponding to the ambient temperature is W2, and the weight corresponding to the firepower information is W3, the final smoke volume can be defined as follows:
[0079] P = P1×W1 + P2×W2 + P3×W3
[0080] In the formula, P1 is the smoke volume predicted according to the temperature inside the pot, P2 is the smoke volume predicted according to the ambient temperature, and P3 is the smoke volume predicted according to the firepower information of the cooktop.
[0081] Further, obtain the temperature of the environment where the range hood is located measured by the temperature sensor when the cooking appliance is not in the working state as the first ambient temperature; when obtaining the real-time reported firepower information of the cooking appliance, obtain the temperature of the environment where the range hood is located measured by the temperature sensor in real time as the second ambient temperature; obtain the ambient temperature difference according to the difference between the first ambient temperature and the second ambient temperature; obtain the temperature difference value of the temperature inside the pot within a preset time as the temperature difference inside the pot; based on the smoke volume influence strategy, determine the predicted smoke volume according to the temperature difference inside the pot, the ambient temperature difference, and the firepower information.
[0082] It should be noted that the difference is obtained by subtracting the value of the previous moment from the value of the current moment. For example, the difference between the current temperature inside the pot and the temperature inside the pot 500 ms ago.
[0083] Exemplarily, according to the temperature difference ΔT between two moments before and after within a preset time target obtain the temperature difference inside the pot, and the difference ΔT between the current ambient temperature and the ambient temperature at room temperature before the cooking appliance is turned on env represents the ambient temperature difference, and the current cooking appliance firepower information is represented by F ad is represented, and the predicted smoke volume is represented by P. The value of P is a percentage value, and its maximum value is 100. The greater the proportion, the greater the smoke volume, and the higher the gear required for the fan.
[0084] Exemplarily, when the weight value W1 of the temperature inside the pot is 50%, the ambient temperature weight W2 is 25%, and the cooking appliance firepower information weight W3 is 25%, if the smoke volume value P1 calculated according to the temperature difference inside the pot is 90; the smoke volume value P2 calculated according to the ambient temperature difference is 80; the smoke volume value P3 calculated according to the cooking appliance firepower information is 80, the final smoke volume value is: P = 90×50% + 80×25% + 90×25%, and the final smoke volume value is obtained as 87.5%.
[0085] Based on the temperature inside the pot, the firepower information, the ambient temperature, and different weight factors determined according to different pot bodies, calculate the smoke volume, so as to more accurately predict the smoke volume generated during cooking with various pot bodies, and enable more precise adjustment of the fan parameters in various application scenarios.
[0086] S106. Determine the operating parameters of the range hood fan according to the predicted smoke volume, and control the operation of the range hood fan according to the operating parameters.
[0087] Specifically, the operating parameters of the range hood fan include: the fan gear of the range hood fan and the gear change rate.
[0088] In some embodiments, the gears of the range hood fan can be defined as three gears: low gear, high gear, and stir-fry gear. It should be noted that the fan gears can be further divided into more gears according to requirements in actual application scenarios, and the present application does not limit this.
[0089] Exemplarily, when the predicted smoke volume is below 30%, it indicates a small smoke volume, and the fan operates at a low gear.
[0090] Exemplarily, when the predicted smoke volume is between 30% and 70%, it indicates a large smoke volume, and the fan operates at a high gear.
[0091] Exemplarily, when the predicted smoke volume is above 70%, it indicates a very large smoke volume, and the fan operates at the stir-fry gear.
[0092] Furthermore, the gear change rate of the fan can also be determined according to the predicted smoke volume. For example, when the predicted smoke volume is very large, the gear change rate is increased to speed up the adjustment of the fan to the stir-fry gear, so as to absorb the cooking fumes in a shorter time and improve the user experience.
[0093] The control method of the range hood provided by the embodiment of the present application first determines the size of the cookware under the range hood through the cookware image collected by the camera, and assigns different influence factors to the temperature inside the pot, the ambient temperature, and the firepower information in the smoke volume calculation according to the size, weight, and shape of the cookware. Secondly, the smoke volume is calculated according to the temperature inside the pot, the firepower information, the ambient temperature, and the different influence factors, which can accurately reflect the cooking situation of the user when using different cookware, so as to more accurately predict the smoke volume in various application scenarios, and then intelligently adjust the parameters of the range hood fan.
[0094] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 , which is a schematic block diagram of a control system of a range hood provided by an embodiment of the present application.
[0095] As Figure 4 shown, the control system 200 of the range hood includes a range hood 10 and a cooker 20. The range hood 10 is communicatively connected to the cooker 20, wherein: the range hood 10 includes a range hood main body, a range hood fan, a camera, and a temperature sensor;
[0096] The cooker 20 is used to report the firepower information to the range hood 10 in real time,
[0097] The range hood main body is used to: obtain the firepower information reported by the cooker in real time;
[0098] Obtain the ambient temperature of the environment where the range hood is located measured by the temperature sensor in real time;
[0099] Determine the size of the cookware under the range hood according to the cookware image collected by the camera;
[0100] Determine a smoke volume influence strategy according to the size of the pot body. Different pot body sizes correspond to different smoke volume influence strategies.
