[0054] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a charging case for charging an aerosol generating device, Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of an aerosol generating device and a charging case.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The charging case 100 comprises a charging cavity 101 and a charging case display screen 102. The aerosol generating device 200 comprises a power supply part 201 and an aerosol generating device display screen 202.

[0057] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a flowchart of a parameter display method of the aerosol generating device and the charging case provided by the present application.

[0058] Referring to Figure 3 , the present application provides a parameter display method of an aerosol generating device 200 and a charging case 100, applied to the aerosol generating device 200 or the charging case 100, comprising:

[0059] S10, in response to the connection of the charging case 100 and the aerosol generating device 200, determining whether a query instruction is received.

[0060] Specifically, the execution subject of the present step is the control module of the charging case 100 or the control module of the aerosol generating device 200. The charging case 100 or the aerosol generating device 200 is triggered by a key or other elements to query the instruction. In some specific embodiments, the other elements can be a Hall switch or a dust cover. Specifically, the query instruction of the present step refers to an instruction for querying parameters of the charging case 100 or parameters of the aerosol generating device 200.

[0061] S20, in response to the reception of the query instruction, acquiring parameters of the charging case 100 and / or parameters of the aerosol generating device 200.

[0062] Specifically, in the present step, the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 are acquired by one query instruction, which simplifies the parameter query process and improves the timeliness of parameter query. Moreover, the process of acquiring the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 in the present step can be realized on the basis of the original components of the charging case 100 and the aerosol generating device 200, without increasing components or increasing the difficulty of component process.

[0063] S30, outputting a time-sharing display instruction, the time-sharing display instruction being used to display the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 in different time periods in the same display area.

[0064] Compared with the prior art, the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 are displayed in two separate queries of two devices or in two display areas of the same device, and the display of the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 is realized in one display area of a single device, which simplifies the query process of the parameters, reduces the space occupied by the display module and other structures of the charging case 100 and the aerosol generating device 200, and is conducive to the miniaturization of the charging case 100 and / or the aerosol generating device 200.

[0065] Specifically, in some specific embodiments, the outputting of the time-sharing display instruction includes:

[0066] S30a, outputting a first display instruction; the first display instruction is used to display one of the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 in a first display mode in a first time period;

[0067] S30b, outputting a second display instruction; the second display instruction is used to display the other of the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 in a second display mode in a second time period.

[0068] In the specific steps of the outputting of the time-sharing display instruction, the display mode of the charging case 100 and the display mode of the aerosol generating device 200 are distinguished, so that the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 are displayed in the same display screen in a time-sharing manner through one query, which conforms to the actual query requirement and simplifies the query process of the parameters.

[0069] In some specific embodiments, the first display mode and the second display mode can be different dynamic modes, different static modes, or different color modes, which are easy to realize without adding new display modules or increasing the volume of the display modules.

[0070] Specifically, the different dynamic modes represent different dynamic display effects, such as different LED dynamic display effects to distinguish the display mode of the charging case 100 and the display mode of the aerosol generating device 200. For example, the parameters of the charging case 100 are displayed by LED flashing, and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 are displayed by LED gradually brightening and dimming.

[0071] Specifically, different static modes represent different static display effects, such as distinguishing the display mode of the charging case 100 and the display mode of the aerosol generating device 200 by different LED static display effects. For example, the parameter display of the charging case 100 is represented by displaying one LED bright spot, and the parameter display of the aerosol generating device 200 is represented by displaying two LED bright spots.

[0072] Specifically, different color modes represent different display effects to distinguish the display mode of the charging case 100 and the display mode of the aerosol generating device 200. For example, the parameter display of the charging case 100 is represented by displaying a white LED color, and the parameter display of the aerosol generating device 200 is represented by displaying a green LED color.

[0073] In some specific embodiments, the main body that receives the query instruction and outputs the time-sharing display instruction can be the charging case 100 or the aerosol generating device 200, as shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 That is, the time-sharing display instruction can be output to the display module of the charging case 100, or the time-sharing display instruction can be output to the display module of the aerosol generating device 200. The aerosol generating device 200 is placed in the charging case 100, and the two are connected, so that the parameters of the charging case 100 and the parameters of the aerosol generating device 200 can be displayed on the same display screen through one query button.
