Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of consumer electronics, and in particular to a method for controlling the working state of an atomization device, a control device for the working state of an atomization device, an atomization device, and a computer readable storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0002] The atomization device can be used to replace traditional flame heating, and has an appearance and taste similar to a cigarette. In order to facilitate user operation and use safety of the device, the atomization device needs to start heating after an aerosol generating substrate is inserted into the accommodation cavity, and stop heating after the aerosol generating substrate is pulled out. Therefore, how to accurately detect whether the aerosol generating substrate exists in the accommodation cavity becomes a problem to be solved. SUMMARY

[0003] The present application provides a method for controlling the working state of an atomization device, a control device for the working state of an atomization device, an atomization device, and a computer readable storage medium.

[0004] The method for controlling the working state of an atomization device provided by the present application, wherein the atomization device is provided with an accommodation cavity for accommodating an aerosol generating substrate, comprises:

[0005] obtaining state information of the accommodation cavity;

[0006] obtaining image information of the accommodation cavity;

[0007] controlling the working state of the atomization device according to the state information and the image information, wherein the state information of the accommodation cavity comprises a first state of existence of the aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity and a second state of non-existence of the aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity.

[0008] In this way, in the present application, the detection of the state of the accommodation cavity by the atomization device is a continuous process. The accommodation cavity includes two different states, i.e. the first state of existence of the aerosol generating substrate and the second state of non-existence of the aerosol generating substrate. According to the obtained state information of the accommodation cavity and the obtained image information in the accommodation cavity, the state of the accommodation cavity at the current time can be confirmed, so as to control the working state of the atomization device. The present application can accurately judge the existence of the aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity, so as to accurately control the working state of the atomization device.

[0009] In some embodiments, the controlling the working state of the atomization device according to the state information and the image information comprises:

[0010] In the case where it is determined that the accommodation cavity is in the first state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, the atomization device is controlled to remain in the started state.

[0011] Thus, if an object is detected in the atomizing device while an aerosol-generating matrix is ​​present in the containment cavity, the device will remain running.

[0012] In some embodiments, controlling the operating state of the atomizing device based on the state information and image information includes:

[0013] After determining that the receiving cavity is in the first state, if it is confirmed from the image information that there is no object in the receiving cavity, the atomizing device is controlled to switch from the start state to the off state.

[0014] Thus, if no object is detected in the atomizing device when an aerosol generation matrix is ​​present in the containment cavity, the device will switch from the start state to the off state.

[0015] In some embodiments, controlling the operating state of the atomizing device based on the state information and image information includes:

[0016] After determining that the receiving cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed from the image information that there is no object in the receiving cavity, the atomizing device is controlled to remain in the off state.

[0017] Thus, if no aerosol generation matrix is ​​detected in the containment cavity, the atomizing device will remain in the off state.

[0018] In some embodiments, controlling the operating state of the atomizing device based on the state information and image information includes:

[0019] After determining that the receiving cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed that there is an object in the receiving cavity based on the image information, but the coded image information on the object cannot be identified, the atomizing device is controlled to remain in the off state.

[0020] Thus, if an object is detected in the containment cavity when there is no aerosol generating matrix, but no coded image information that can characterize the object as an aerosol generating matrix is ​​detected, it can be confirmed that the currently inserted object is not an aerosol generating matrix or that the aerosol generating matrix in the containment cavity is not fully inserted, and the atomizing device is controlled to remain in the off state.

[0021] In some embodiments, controlling the operating state of the atomizing device based on the state information and image information includes:

[0022] After determining that the containment cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed that there is an object in the containment cavity based on the image information, and the coded image information on the object can be identified, and the object is confirmed to be the aerosol generating matrix, the atomizing device is controlled to switch from the off state to the on state.

[0023] Thus, if an object is detected in the cavity when there is no aerosol generating matrix, and coded image information that can characterize the object as an aerosol generating matrix can be detected, it can be confirmed that the currently inserted object is an aerosol generating matrix, and the atomizing device is controlled to switch from the off state to the on state.

[0024] The present application discloses a control device for the operating state of an atomizing device, wherein the atomizing device is provided with a receiving cavity for accommodating an aerosol generation matrix, and the control device includes:

[0025] The first acquisition module is used to acquire the status information of the receiving cavity;

[0026] The second acquisition module is used to acquire image information of the receiving cavity;

[0027] The control module is used to control the working state of the atomizing device according to the status information and image information, wherein the status information of the receiving cavity includes a first state in which an aerosol generating matrix exists in the receiving cavity and a second state in which an aerosol generating matrix does not exist.

[0028] The atomizing device of this application includes a processor and a memory, wherein the memory stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by the processor, it implements the above-described method.

[0029] In some embodiments, the atomizing device further includes an optical recognition module connected to the processor, the optical recognition module being used to acquire image information of the receiving cavity.

[0030] The computer-readable storage medium of this application stores a computer program that, when executed by one or more processors, implements the above-described method.

[0041] The embodiments of this application are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the embodiments of this application, and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application.

[0042] Please see Figure 1 This application provides a method for controlling the working state of an atomizing device, including:

[0043] 01: Obtain the status information of the receiving cavity;

[0044] 02: Acquire image information of the receiving cavity;

[0045] 03: Control the working status of the atomizing device based on status information and image information.

[0046] The application further provides an atomization device, which comprises a memory and a processor. The method for controlling the working state of the atomization device can be implemented by the atomization device. Specifically, the memory stores a computer program, and the processor is configured to acquire state information of the accommodation cavity, image information of the accommodation cavity, and control the working state of the atomization device according to the state information and the image information.

[0047] Referring to Figure 2 The application further provides an atomization device working state control apparatus 100. The method for controlling the working state of the atomization device can be implemented by the atomization device working state control apparatus 100. Specifically, the atomization device working state control apparatus 100 comprises a first acquisition module 101, a second acquisition module 102, and a control module 103. The first acquisition module 101 is configured to acquire state information of the accommodation cavity. The second acquisition module 102 is configured to acquire image information of the accommodation cavity. The control module 103 is configured to control the working state of the atomization device according to the state information and the image information.

[0048] In summary, in the application, the detection of the aerosol generating substrate or the like in the atomization device is a continuous process, and the continuous detection is performed at a short time interval during the working process of the atomization device. The accommodation cavity comprises two different states, i.e., a first state in which the aerosol generating substrate exists and a second state in which the aerosol generating substrate does not exist. According to the acquired state information of the accommodation cavity and the acquired image information of the accommodation cavity, the state of the accommodation cavity at the current time can be confirmed, so as to control the working state of the atomization device. The application can accurately determine the presence of the aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity, so as to accurately control the working state of the atomization device.

[0049] Specifically, the state information of the accommodation cavity comprises a first state in which the aerosol generating substrate exists in the accommodation cavity and a second state in which the aerosol generating substrate does not exist.

[0050] The image information of the accommodation cavity comprises information about the presence of objects in the accommodation cavity, such as whether there are objects and coded images on the objects.

[0051] The atomization device further comprises a main body and a heating device. The main body forms an accommodation cavity therein, and the accommodation cavity is used for placing the aerosol generating substrate. The heating device is used for heating the aerosol generating substrate to generate aerosol.

[0052] The atomization device further comprises an optical recognition module, which can comprise an image acquisition device and an image processing device, or the optical recognition module only comprises the image acquisition device, and the processor processes the acquired image, which is not limited herein. The image acquisition device can comprise a camera and an infrared fill light.

[0053] The optical recognition module can be disposed within the side wall of the main body and facing the receiving cavity. The receiving cavity can be entirely or at least partially made of a light-transmitting material, enabling the optical recognition module to acquire image information within the receiving cavity. To accurately identify the state of the aerosol generating matrix, an coded image can be placed at a corresponding location on the aerosol generating matrix. Based on the coded image information, it can be identified whether the object inserted into the receiving cavity is the aerosol generating matrix or another type of object. When the aerosol generating matrix is ​​substantially completely inserted into the receiving cavity, the optical recognition module can acquire the coded image on the aerosol generating matrix; in other words, the acquired state image includes at least the coded image. In some examples, the optical recognition module can be disposed near the opening of the receiving cavity.

[0054] An image of the cavity at any given moment can be acquired by the optical recognition module, allowing the cavity's state information at that moment to be confirmed based on the image information. Specifically, the current state information of the cavity is determined by combining historical state information and the current image information, avoiding misjudgments based solely on image information. The atomizing device can store each determined state information for use in determining subsequent state information. That is, the state information is the closest recorded state information to the current moment. The image information is the image of the cavity acquired at the current moment. Based on this state information and the current image of the cavity, the current state information of the cavity can be confirmed. The current state information of the cavity is then stored for future confirmation of the cavity's state.

[0055] The status confirmation of the containment cavity can support the heating control of the atomizing device, which can save energy to a certain extent, reduce safety hazards, and improve the user experience of the atomizing device.

[0056] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some implementations, step 03 includes:

[0057] 031: After determining that the receiving cavity is in the first state, if it is confirmed that there is an object in the receiving cavity based on the image information, control the atomizing device to remain in the start state.

[0058] In some implementations, the processor is configured to, after determining that the receiving cavity is in a first state, control the atomizing device to remain in the activated state if it is confirmed from the image information that an object exists in the receiving cavity.

[0059] In some embodiments, the control module 103 is used to control the atomizing device to remain in the start state if it is confirmed from the image information that an object exists in the receiving cavity after determining that the receiving cavity is in the first state.

[0060] Thus, in the case that the aerosol generating substrate exists in the accommodation cavity, if it is detected that the object exists in the accommodation cavity, the atomization device is controlled to remain in the activated state.

[0061] Specifically, as shown in Figure 4 after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the first state, i.e., confirming that the aerosol generating substrate exists in the accommodation cavity at the previous time, if it is confirmed at this time that the object exists in the accommodation cavity according to the image information obtained in the accommodation cavity, since the detection interval is short, the aerosol generating substrate cannot be removed in the interval time to change the state in the accommodation cavity, and thus it can be considered that the accommodation cavity is still in the first state at the current time, i.e., the state in which the aerosol generating substrate exists.

[0062] That is to say, in this case, it is not necessary to confirm whether the object in the accommodation cavity is the aerosol generating substrate. Or, it is not necessary to confirm whether the object is the aerosol generating substrate according to whether the clear coded image information is included in the image information. Understandably, if the accommodation cavity is in the first state at the previous time, the atomization device is in the activated state, and if it is confirmed that the accommodation cavity is still in the first state at the current time, the atomization device is controlled to remain in the activated state to continue heating the aerosol generating substrate.

[0063] Understandably, after the aerosol generating substrate is heated in the accommodation cavity, the aerosol generating substrate can generate obstacles such as water vapor or aerosol, and thus damage or block the coded image, resulting in that the image including the clear coded image information cannot be collected. As shown in Figure 5 at this time, although the accommodation cavity is still in the first state in which the aerosol generating substrate exists, the image information of the accommodation cavity including the clear coded image information can not be obtained. In this case, if it is only confirmed that the aerosol generating substrate does not exist in the accommodation cavity based on the image information of the accommodation cavity at the current time, it can lead to the false operation that the accommodation cavity stops heating the aerosol generating substrate.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, step 03 comprises:

[0065] 032: After determining that the accommodation cavity is in the first state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that the object does not exist in the accommodation cavity, the atomization device is controlled to switch from the activated state to the closed state.

[0066] In some embodiments, the processor is configured to, after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the first state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that the object does not exist in the accommodation cavity, control the atomization device to switch from the activated state to the closed state.

[0067] In some embodiments, the control module 103 is configured to, after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the first state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is no object in the accommodation cavity, control the atomization device to switch from the start state to the closed state.

[0068] In this way, in the case where the aerosol generating substrate is present in the accommodation cavity, if it is detected that there is no object in the accommodation cavity, the atomization device is controlled to switch from the start state to the closed state.

[0069] Specifically, after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the first state, i.e., it is confirmed that the aerosol generating substrate was present in the accommodation cavity at the previous time, if it is detected according to the image information obtained at this time that there is no object in the accommodation cavity, it can be considered that the aerosol generating substrate has been removed at the current time. Since the aerosol generating substrate was present in the accommodation cavity at the previous time, the atomization device is in the open state, and at this time, the atomization device is controlled to switch from the start state to the closed state and stop heating.

[0070] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, step 03 comprises:

[0071] 033: After determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is no object in the accommodation cavity, the atomization device is controlled to remain in the closed state.

[0072] In some embodiments, the processor is configured to, after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is no object in the accommodation cavity, control the atomization device to remain in the closed state.

[0073] In some embodiments, the control module 103 is configured to, after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is no object in the accommodation cavity, control the atomization device to remain in the closed state.

[0074] In this way, in the case where the aerosol generating substrate is not present in the accommodation cavity, if it is detected that there is no object in the accommodation cavity, the atomization device is controlled to remain in the closed state.

[0075] Specifically, after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, i.e., it is confirmed that the aerosol generating substrate was not present in the accommodation cavity at the previous time, if it is confirmed according to the image information obtained at this time that there is still no object in the accommodation cavity. Since the aerosol generating substrate was not present in the accommodation cavity at the previous confirmation time, the atomization device is in the closed state, and at this time, the atomization device can be controlled to remain in the closed state.

[0076] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, step 03 comprises:

[0077] 034:In the case of determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, but the coded image information on the object cannot be identified, the control module 103 controls the atomization device to remain in the closed state.

[0078] In some embodiments, the processor is configured to, in the case of determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, but the coded image information on the object cannot be identified, control the atomization device to remain in the closed state.

[0079] In some embodiments, the control module 103 is configured to, in the case of determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, but the coded image information on the object cannot be identified, control the atomization device to remain in the closed state.

[0080] In this way, in the case where there is no aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity, if it is detected that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, but the coded image information that can characterize the object as an aerosol generating substrate is not detected, it can be confirmed that the object currently inserted is not an aerosol generating substrate or that the aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity is not fully inserted, and the atomization device is controlled to remain in the closed state.

[0081] Specifically, after determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, i.e., confirming that there is no aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity at the last time, if it is detected according to the image information obtained from the accommodation cavity at this time that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, but the coded image information on the object cannot be further identified, there are two possibilities for this situation: first, the object existing in the accommodation cavity is an aerosol generating substrate, but at this time the aerosol generating substrate is not fully inserted, as shown in FIG. 8A. Based on the position setting of the coded image information on the aerosol generating substrate, the aerosol generating substrate needs to be substantially fully inserted into the accommodation cavity to obtain the image information including the coded image information. Second, the inserted object is not an aerosol generating substrate, as shown in FIG. 8B. The object without coded image information cannot obtain coded image information from the image information of the accommodation cavity even if it is fully inserted into the accommodation cavity. In this case, it can be confirmed that the object inserted into the accommodation cavity at this time is not an aerosol generating substrate but other objects. For these two possible situations, since at the last time it is confirmed that there is no aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity, the atomization device is in the closed state, and at this time the atomization device is controlled to remain in the closed state. Figure 7 Figure 8

[0082] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, step 03 comprises:

[0083] ​​035:In the case of determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, and the coded image information on the object can be identified, it is confirmed that the object is the aerosol generating substrate, and the atomization device is controlled to switch from the closed state to the starting state.

[0084] In some embodiments, the processor is configured to, in the case of determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, and the coded image information on the object can be identified, it is confirmed that the object is the aerosol generating substrate, and the atomization device is controlled to switch from the closed state to the starting state.

[0085] In some embodiments, the control module 103 is configured to, in the case of determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, if it is confirmed according to the image information that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, and the coded image information on the object can be identified, it is confirmed that the object is the aerosol generating substrate, and the atomization device is controlled to switch from the closed state to the starting state.

[0086] In this way, in the case that there is no aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity, if it is detected that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, and the coded image information that can characterize the object as an aerosol generating substrate can be detected, it can be confirmed that the object inserted at present is an aerosol generating substrate, and the atomization device is switched from the closed state to the starting state.

[0087] Specifically, in the case of determining that the accommodation cavity is in the second state, i.e., it is confirmed that there is no aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity at the last time, if it is confirmed according to the image information obtained at present that there is an object in the accommodation cavity, and the coded image information on the object can be identified, it is confirmed that the object in the accommodation cavity is an aerosol generating substrate. Since there is no aerosol generating substrate in the accommodation cavity at the last confirmation time, the atomization device is in the closed state, at present, the atomization device is controlled to switch from the closed state to the starting state.

[0088] It can be understood that, similar to the confirmation of the state information of the accommodation cavity at the present time, the state information of the accommodation cavity at the next time can be confirmed according to the state information of the accommodation cavity at the present time and the image information in the accommodation cavity at the next time, and the specific manner can be referred to the above explanation and description of the embodiments, which will not be described here. Further, the working state of the atomization device is controlled according to the state of the accommodation cavity.

[0089] The application also provides a computer readable storage medium, which stores a computer program, when the computer program is executed by one or more processors, the above-mentioned method is realized.

[0090] In summary, this application employs different methods to control the operating state of the atomizing device based on the current state information of the receiving cavity, the presence of an object within the cavity, and whether the object is an aerosol generating matrix. Specifically, when there is no aerosol generating matrix in the receiving cavity, i.e., the atomizing device is in the off state, optical imaging detects the presence of an object within the cavity. Heating is only initiated after confirming that an aerosol generating matrix has been inserted, based on the coded image information in the cavity's image data. This effectively prevents safety hazards caused by heating when a non-aerosol generating matrix is ​​inserted. When an aerosol generating matrix is ​​present in the receiving cavity, i.e., the atomizing device is in the on state, confirmation is also achieved through optical imaging. However, unlike when there is no aerosol generating matrix in the cavity and the atomizing device is off, when the aerosol generating matrix is ​​present and the atomizing device is on, it is not necessary to detect the coded image information; confirmation is only required by acquiring an image containing an object. This ensures that the heating process of the aerosol generating matrix is ​​not mistakenly interpreted as removal and prematurely terminated, and that heating is stopped promptly when the aerosol generating matrix is ​​removed. This ensures that the aerosol generating matrix is ​​heated in a timely and sufficient manner, while also preventing the safety hazards caused by the atomizing device heating the empty cavity after the aerosol generating matrix is ​​removed, thus improving the user experience.
