Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliance technology, and more specifically, to a control method for a cooking appliance, a control device for a cooking appliance, an electronic device, a readable storage medium, and a cooking appliance. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, steamed buns occupy a very important place in the diet. However, after fermentation, the internal structure of the dough becomes relatively loose, causing blood sugar to rise relatively quickly after consumption. This is not conducive to blood sugar stability and weight control, making some people who are trying to lose weight and those with blood sugar disorders avoid steamed buns. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.

[0004] Therefore, a first aspect of the present invention provides a method for controlling a cooking appliance.

[0005] A second aspect of the present invention also provides a control device for a cooking appliance.

[0006] A third aspect of the present invention also provides an electronic device.

[0007] A fourth aspect of the present invention also provides a readable storage medium.

[0008] A fifth aspect of the invention also provides a cooking utensil.

[0009] A sixth aspect of the invention also provides a cooking utensil.

[0010] In view of this, a first aspect of the present invention provides a control method for a cooking appliance, the cooking appliance including a cooking chamber and a processing device, the processing device being at least capable of pressurizing the cooking chamber, the control method comprising: acquiring a cooking stage of the cooking appliance; controlling the processing device to operate according to the cooking stage, such that, at least in at least one stage of the cooking stage, the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold, wherein the cooking stage includes a fermentation stage and a steaming stage.

[0011] The present invention provides a control method for a cooking appliance. The control method includes: acquiring the cooking stage of the cooking appliance; controlling the operation of a processing device according to the cooking stage; and increasing the pressure value inside the cooking cavity to a pressure threshold during at least one stage of the cooking stage. This reduces excessive expansion of the food volume during cooking due to the increased pressure inside the cooking cavity, thereby controlling the volume of the food and preventing it from becoming too porous. This increases the resistant starch content of the food, which is beneficial for controlling the blood sugar and weight of the consumer.

[0012] The cooking process includes fermentation and steaming. When cooking steamed buns or similar foods, controlling the volume of the buns during fermentation and / or steaming can reduce excessive expansion, thereby increasing the resistant starch content and alleviating the problem of rapid blood sugar spikes in consumers.

[0013] The control method for cooking appliances provided by the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:

[0014] In some possible designs, the pressure threshold includes a first pressure threshold and a second pressure threshold, wherein the second pressure threshold is greater than or equal to the first pressure threshold; the step of controlling the processing device to operate according to the cooking stage so that the pressure value in the cooking cavity increases to the pressure threshold in at least one stage of the cooking stage specifically includes: in the fermentation stage, controlling the processing device to operate so that the pressure value in the cooking cavity increases to the first pressure threshold; after the fermentation stage ends, entering the steaming stage; in the steaming stage, controlling the processing device to operate so that the pressure value in the cooking cavity increases to the second pressure threshold.

[0015] In this design, the pressure threshold includes a first pressure threshold and a second pressure threshold. During the fermentation stage, the processing device is activated to increase the pressure inside the cooking chamber to the first pressure threshold, limiting excessive fermentation of the food and preventing it from expanding excessively. This controls the volume of the food, preventing it from becoming too fluffy and increasing the content of resistant starch. After the fermentation stage, the food enters the steaming stage. During steaming, the processing device is activated to increase the pressure inside the cooking chamber to the second pressure threshold, again preventing excessive expansion of the food and controlling its volume. This also prevents the food from becoming too fluffy and increases the content of resistant starch.

[0016] The second pressure threshold is greater than or equal to the first pressure threshold, which ensures that the ingredients can ferment fully during the fermentation stage and that the volume of the ingredients can be controlled during the steaming stage.

[0017] In one possible design, the processing device includes a steam generating section and a pressurizing section; during the fermentation stage, the steps for controlling the operation of the processing device specifically include: turning on the pressurizing section; during the steaming stage, the steps for controlling the operation of the processing device specifically include: turning off the pressurizing section and turning on the steam generating section.

[0018] In this design, the processing device includes a pressurization unit and a steam generation unit. The pressurization unit pressurizes the cooking chamber during the fermentation stage, while the steam generation unit supplies steam into the cooking chamber to cook the food and simultaneously increase the pressure within the chamber. Specifically, during the fermentation stage, the pressurization unit is activated, increasing the pressure within the cooking chamber to a first pressure threshold. This prevents the food from over-expanding, controlling its volume and preventing it from becoming too fluffy, thus increasing the resistant starch content. During the steaming stage, the steam generation unit is activated, supplying steam into the cooking chamber and increasing the pressure to a second pressure threshold. This again prevents the food from over-expanding, controlling its volume and preventing it from becoming too fluffy, thus increasing the resistant starch content. In other words, the pressure increases during the fermentation and steaming stages are achieved through the pressurization unit and the steam generation unit, respectively.

[0019] In some possible designs, the processing device includes a steam generator; during the fermentation stage, the steps for controlling the operation of the processing device specifically include: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam into the cooking cavity according to a first output parameter; during the steaming stage, the steps for controlling the operation of the processing device specifically include: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam into the cooking cavity according to a second output parameter.

[0020] In this design, the processing device includes a steam generator. During the fermentation stage, by activating the steam generator, steam is supplied to the cooking chamber according to a first output parameter, increasing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to a first pressure threshold, thereby preventing over-fermentation of the food. During the steaming stage, by activating the steam generator and supplying steam to the cooking chamber according to a second output parameter, the pressure inside the cooking chamber is increased to a second pressure threshold, achieving cooking of the food while reducing its volume after cooking. The technical solution proposed in this application regulates the pressure during both the fermentation and steaming stages through the steam generator; that is, it increases the pressure in both stages using the same component, reducing production costs and minimizing the overall size of the cooking appliance.

[0021] In some possible designs, the processing device also includes a pressure relief valve connected to the cooking chamber, and the control method of the cooking appliance includes: closing the pressure relief valve during the fermentation stage; opening the pressure relief valve at time intervals during the steaming stage and maintaining the pressure relief valve open for a threshold duration; and keeping the pressure relief valve open after the steaming stage is completed.

[0022] In this design, the cooking appliance also includes a pressure relief valve connected to the cooking chamber. This valve releases pressure within the chamber. During fermentation, the valve is closed, and the processing device pressurizes the cooking chamber, allowing for control of food volume with minimal energy consumption. During steaming, the valve opens at time intervals and remains open for a specified duration, intermittently releasing steam from the cooking chamber. This maintains both the temperature within the chamber for optimal cooking and the pressure level for controlled food volume. After steaming, the valve is reopened to release pressure from the cooking chamber.

[0023] In some possible designs, the control method for the cooking appliance also includes: during the fermentation stage, controlling the processing device to maintain the temperature inside the cooking cavity at a first temperature threshold to produce flavor substances; and during the steaming stage, controlling the processing device to maintain the temperature inside the cooking cavity at a second temperature threshold.

[0024] In this design, during the fermentation stage, the temperature inside the cooking chamber is maintained at a first temperature threshold by controlling the processing device, thereby generating flavor compounds to enhance the taste of the ingredients. During the steaming stage, the temperature inside the cooking chamber is maintained at a second temperature threshold by controlling the processing device, thus achieving the cooking of the ingredients.

[0025] In some possible designs, the control methods for cooking appliances may also include issuing prompt messages after the fermentation stage is completed and / or after the steaming stage is completed.

[0026] In this design, a notification message is issued after the fermentation stage and / or steaming stage are completed, so that the user is aware of the cooking progress.

[0027] According to a second aspect of the invention, a control device for a cooking appliance is also provided for a control method of a cooking appliance as described in any of the first aspects, comprising: an acquisition unit for acquiring a cooking stage of the cooking appliance; and a control unit for controlling a processing device to operate according to the cooking stage, such that, at least one stage of the cooking stage, the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold, wherein the cooking stage includes a fermentation stage and a steaming stage.

[0028] The control device for the cooking appliance proposed in this application includes an acquisition unit and a control unit. The control unit is used to: acquire the cooking stage of the cooking appliance; and control the operation of the processing device according to the cooking stage, so that during at least one stage of the cooking stage, the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold. This increases the pressure inside the cooking chamber, reducing excessive expansion of the food's volume during cooking, thus controlling the food's volume and preventing it from becoming too porous. This increases the resistant starch content of the food, which is beneficial for controlling the consumer's blood sugar and weight.

[0029] The cooking process includes fermentation and steaming. When cooking steamed buns or similar foods, controlling the volume of the buns during fermentation and / or steaming can reduce excessive expansion, thereby increasing the resistant starch content and alleviating the problem of rapid blood sugar spikes in consumers.

[0030] A third aspect of the present invention provides an electronic device, comprising: a processor and a memory, the memory storing a program or instructions executable on the processor, the program or instructions, when executed by the processor, implementing the steps of a control method for a cooking appliance as described in any of the first aspects.

[0031] The electronic device provided by the present invention includes a memory and a processor. Since the processor can implement the control method of any of the technical solutions in the first aspect when executing programs or instructions in the memory, the electronic device provided by the present invention has all the beneficial effects of the control method of any of the technical solutions in the first aspect of the present invention, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0032] The fourth aspect of the present invention provides a readable storage medium having a program or instructions stored thereon, wherein when the program or instructions are executed by a processor, a control method for a cooking appliance as described in any of the first aspects is performed.

[0033] The readable storage medium provided by the present invention, since it stores a program or instructions for implementing the control method of any of the technical solutions in the first aspect, has all the beneficial effects of the control method of any of the technical solutions in the first aspect of the present invention, which will not be elaborated here.

[0035] The cooking appliance provided by the present invention includes the control device of the cooking appliance as proposed in the second aspect, and / or the electronic device as proposed in the third aspect; and / or the readable storage medium as proposed in the fourth aspect, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the control device and / or electronic device and / or readable storage medium of the cooking appliance, which will not be repeated here.

[0036] A sixth aspect of the present invention provides a cooking appliance, comprising a cooking chamber; a processing device capable of pressurizing the cooking chamber; and a control unit connected to the processing device for controlling the operation of the processing device according to the cooking stage of the cooking appliance, so that the pressure value in the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold in at least one stage of the cooking stage, wherein the cooking stage includes at least a fermentation stage and a steaming stage.

[0037] The cooking appliance proposed in this invention includes a cooking chamber, a processing device, and a control unit. The control unit controls the operation of the processing device according to the cooking stage, so that the pressure value in the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold during at least one stage of the cooking process. In this way, when cooking food, the increased pressure in the cooking chamber reduces the excessive expansion of the food volume during the cooking process, thereby controlling the volume of the food and preventing the food from being too loose inside. This increases the resistant starch content of the food, which is beneficial for the control of blood sugar and weight of the consumer.

[0038] The cooking process includes fermentation and steaming. When cooking steamed buns or similar foods, controlling the volume of the buns during fermentation and / or steaming can reduce excessive expansion, thereby increasing the resistant starch content and alleviating the problem of rapid blood sugar spikes in consumers.

[0039] In one possible design, the processing device includes: a steam generator for supplying steam into the cooking cavity, and a control unit connected to the steam generator; during the fermentation and steaming stages, the processing device controls the steam generator to be turned on.

[0040] In this design, the processing device includes a steam generator. During the fermentation and steaming stages, the control unit controls the operation of the steam generator to deliver steam into the cooking chamber, thereby increasing the pressure value inside the cooking chamber, reducing production costs, and decreasing the overall size of the cooking appliance.

[0041] In one possible design, the processing device includes a pressurization unit and a steam generation unit, wherein the pressurization unit is used to pressurize the cooking chamber; during the fermentation stage, the control unit controls the pressurization unit to open; during the steaming stage, the control unit controls the steam generation unit to open and controls the pressurization unit to close.

[0042] In this design, the processing device includes a pressurization unit and a steam generation unit. The pressurization unit increases the pressure inside the cooking chamber during the fermentation stage, and the steam generation unit increases the pressure inside the cooking chamber during the steaming stage, thus achieving separate control.

[0043] In one possible design, the pressurization unit includes a heating element or a steam element.

[0044] In this design, the pressurization unit includes a heating element or a steam element to pressurize the cooking chamber by heating the cooking chamber or supplying steam to the cooking chamber.

[0045] In one possible design, the cooking appliance also includes: a pressure relief valve, connected to the cooking chamber, for relieving pressure in the cooking chamber; and a heating element for supplying heat to the cooking chamber.

[0046] In this design, the cooking appliance also includes a pressure relief valve and a heating element. The pressure relief valve is used to relieve pressure in the cooking chamber, and the heating element is used to heat the cooking chamber.

[0048] In this design, the cooking appliance also includes an information input module, an information prompt module, and a calculation module. Based on the information from the information prompt module and the information input module, the calculation module calculates the operating information of the processing device to control the processing device to operate according to the operating information.

Detailed Implementation

[0059] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0060] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the scope of protection of the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0061] The following reference Figures 1 to 6 A method for controlling a cooking appliance according to some embodiments of the present invention is described.

[0062] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a control method for a cooking appliance is provided for the cooking appliance, the cooking appliance including a cooking cavity and a processing device, the processing device being at least capable of pressurizing the cooking cavity.

[0063] like Figure 1 The diagram shows a flow chart of a control method for a cooking appliance. The control method includes:

[0064] S102: The cooking stage of acquiring cooking utensils;

[0065] S104: The processing device is controlled to operate according to the cooking stage, so that the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold at at least one stage of the cooking stage.

[0066] The cooking stage includes the fermentation stage and the steaming stage.

[0067] The cooking appliance control method provided by the present invention is used in a cooking appliance to increase the pressure value inside the cooking cavity to a pressure threshold during at least one stage of fermentation and steaming. In this way, when cooking food, the increased pressure inside the cooking cavity can reduce the excessive expansion of the food volume during cooking, thereby controlling the volume of the food and preventing the food from being too loose inside. This increases the resistant starch content of the food, which is beneficial for the control of blood sugar and weight of the consumer.

[0068] The cooking process includes fermentation and steaming. When cooking steamed buns or similar foods, controlling the volume of the buns during fermentation and / or steaming can reduce excessive expansion, thereby increasing the resistant starch content and alleviating the problem of rapid blood sugar spikes in consumers.

[0069] It should be noted that the cooking appliance includes a cooking cavity and a processing device. The processing device can at least increase the pressure inside the cooking cavity. Specifically, the processing device can be a device that generates steam, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity by supplying steam into the cooking cavity. The processing device can also be a device that generates heat, thereby increasing the temperature inside the cooking cavity and thus increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity. The processing device can also compress the gas inside the cooking cavity, for example, by reducing the volume inside the cooking cavity, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity.

[0070] Furthermore, the pressure threshold is a set pressure value, which can be set according to the actual situation.

[0071] Furthermore, the pressure thresholds for the fermentation stage and the steaming stage are different.

[0072] Furthermore, after the fermentation stage is completed, the steaming stage begins.

[0073] like Figure 2 The diagram illustrates a flow chart of a control method for a cooking appliance. The pressure threshold includes a first pressure threshold and a second pressure threshold, where the second pressure threshold is greater than or equal to the first pressure threshold. The control method includes:

[0074] S202: The cooking stage of acquiring cooking utensils;

[0075] S204: During the fermentation stage, the processing device is controlled to increase the pressure value inside the cooking chamber to a first pressure threshold.

[0076] S206: After the fermentation stage is completed, the steaming stage begins;

[0077] S208: During the steaming stage, the control processing device is operated to increase the pressure value inside the cooking cavity to the second pressure threshold.

[0078] In this embodiment, during the fermentation stage, the pressure inside the cooking cavity is set to a first pressure threshold to limit excessive fermentation of the food. This prevents the food from expanding excessively within the cooking cavity, thus controlling its volume and preventing it from becoming overly fluffy, thereby increasing the resistant starch content. After the fermentation stage, the cooking appliance enters the steaming stage. During steaming, the processing device is activated to increase the pressure inside the cooking cavity to a second pressure threshold. This again prevents the food from expanding excessively within the cooking cavity, controlling its volume and preventing it from becoming overly fluffy, thus increasing the resistant starch content.

[0079] The second pressure threshold is greater than or equal to the first pressure threshold, which ensures that the ingredients can ferment fully during the fermentation stage and that the volume of the ingredients can be controlled during the steaming stage.

[0080] Understandably, increased resistant starch content slows down the absorption of food, thus controlling the glycemic index and benefiting people with blood sugar disorders and those trying to lose weight.

[0081] The first pressure threshold P1 satisfies: 5 kPa ≤ P1 ≤ 10 kPa. The second pressure threshold P2 satisfies: 10 kPa ≤ P2 ≤ 15 kPa. This prevents the steamed buns from becoming excessively fluffy inside during the steaming process.

[0082] In practical applications, P1 can be any value among 6 kPa, 7 kPa, 8 kPa, and 9 kPa. P2 can be any value among 11 kPa, 11.5 kPa, 12 kPa, 12.5 kPa, 13 kPa, 13.5 kPa, 14 kPa, and 14.5 kPa.

[0083] According to some embodiments of this application, the processing apparatus includes a steam generating section and a pressurizing section. During the fermentation stage, the steps for controlling the operation of the processing apparatus specifically include: turning on the pressurizing section; during the steaming stage, the steps for controlling the operation of the processing apparatus specifically include: turning off the pressurizing section and turning on the steam generating section.

[0084] In this embodiment, the processing device includes a pressurization unit and a steam generation unit. The pressurization unit pressurizes the cooking chamber during the fermentation stage, and the steam generation unit supplies steam into the cooking chamber to cook the food and also increases the pressure within the cooking chamber. Specifically, during the fermentation stage, the pressurization unit is activated to increase the pressure within the cooking chamber to a first pressure threshold. Under this pressure, the food inside the cooking chamber does not expand excessively, thus controlling its volume and preventing it from becoming too fluffy, thereby increasing the resistant starch content. During the steaming stage, the steam generation unit is activated to supply steam into the cooking chamber, increasing the pressure within the cooking chamber to a second pressure threshold. Under this pressure, the food inside the cooking chamber does not expand excessively, thus controlling its volume and preventing it from becoming too fluffy, thereby increasing the resistant starch content. In other words, the pressure increases during the fermentation and steaming stages are achieved through the pressurization unit and the steam generation unit, respectively.

[0085] It should be noted that the pressurizing unit can be a device that generates steam, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity by supplying steam into the cooking cavity. The pressurizing unit can also be a device that generates heat, thereby increasing the temperature inside the cooking cavity and thus increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity. The pressurizing unit can also compress the gas inside the cooking cavity. For example, the pressurizing unit is slidably connected to the cooking cavity, and the pressurizing unit divides the cooking cavity into two chambers. Through the movement of the pressurizing unit, the volume inside the cooking cavity where the food is placed is reduced, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity.

[0086] In addition, when the cooking chamber is pressurized by the processing device, the cooking chamber can be a sealed space or in an intermittent exhaust state, so that the pressure inside the cooking chamber is maintained within the first pressure threshold range.

[0087] According to some embodiments of this application, the processing device includes a steam generator; during the fermentation stage, the steps of controlling the operation of the processing device specifically include: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam into the cooking cavity according to a first output parameter; during the steaming stage, the steps of controlling the operation of the processing device specifically include: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam into the cooking cavity according to a second output parameter.

[0088] In this embodiment, the processing device includes a steam generator. During the fermentation stage, by activating the steam generator, steam is supplied to the cooking chamber according to a first output parameter, increasing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to a first pressure threshold, thereby preventing over-fermentation of the food. During the steaming stage, by activating the steam generator and supplying steam to the cooking chamber according to a second output parameter, the pressure inside the cooking chamber is increased to a second pressure threshold, achieving cooking of the food while reducing its volume after cooking. The embodiment proposed in this application uses a steam generator to regulate the pressure during the fermentation and steaming stages, that is, by using the same component to increase the pressure during both stages, reducing production costs and shrinking the overall size of the cooking appliance.

[0089] It should be noted that the first output parameter includes at least one of the steam temperature value and the steam quantity; the second output parameter includes at least one of the steam temperature value and the steam quantity.

[0090] It is understandable that the second output parameter is greater than or equal to the first output parameter.

[0091] The steam generation section includes a steam generator.

[0092] According to some embodiments of this application, the processing apparatus further includes a pressure relief valve. The pressure relief valve is connected to the cooking chamber, and during the fermentation stage, the pressure relief valve is controlled to close. During the steaming stage, the pressure relief valve is controlled to open at time intervals and maintain an opening duration threshold. After the steaming stage is completed, the pressure relief valve remains open.

[0093] In this embodiment, the cooking appliance also includes a pressure relief valve connected to the cooking chamber for depressurizing the chamber. During fermentation, the pressure relief valve is closed, and the processing device pressurizes the cooking chamber, enabling control of food volume with minimal energy consumption. During steaming, the pressure relief valve is opened at time intervals and maintained for a specified duration, allowing steam to be released intermittently from the cooking chamber. This ensures both the temperature within the cooking chamber for cooking and the pressure within the chamber for controlling food volume. After steaming is complete, the pressure relief valve is opened to depressurize the cooking chamber.

[0094] Specifically, the duration threshold and time interval can be set according to the actual situation. For example, the time interval can be greater than or equal to 2 minutes and less than or equal to 5 minutes, and the duration threshold can be greater than or equal to 1 minute and less than or equal to 2 minutes.

[0095] It should be noted that the pressure relief valve has an open state and a closed state. When the pressure relief valve is open, it connects the cooking chamber with the outside air, thereby relieving pressure in the cooking chamber. When the pressure relief valve is closed, it cuts off the connection between the cooking chamber and the outside air.

[0096] In practical applications, when the processing device includes a pressurization unit and a steam generation unit: during the fermentation stage, the pressurization unit is activated and the pressure relief valve is closed, causing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to increase to a first pressure threshold. During the steaming stage, the pressurization unit is deactivated and the steam generation unit is activated, with the pressure relief valve operating intermittently, causing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to increase to a second pressure threshold.

[0097] According to some embodiments of this application, the method for controlling a cooking appliance further includes: during the fermentation stage, controlling the processing device to maintain the temperature inside the cooking cavity at a first temperature threshold to produce flavor substances; and during the steaming stage, controlling the processing device to maintain the temperature inside the cooking cavity at a second temperature threshold.

[0098] In this embodiment, during the fermentation stage, the temperature inside the cooking chamber is maintained at a first temperature threshold by controlling the processing device, thereby generating flavor substances to enhance the taste of the ingredients. During the steaming stage, the temperature inside the cooking chamber is maintained at a second temperature threshold by controlling the processing device, thereby achieving the cooking of the ingredients.

[0099] It should be noted that, when the processing device includes a steam generator, during the fermentation stage, the control processing device specifically includes: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam at a first temperature threshold into the cooking chamber, so that the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to the first pressure threshold and the temperature value is the first temperature threshold. During the steaming stage, the control processing device specifically includes: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam at a second temperature threshold into the cooking chamber, so that the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to the second pressure threshold and the temperature value is the second temperature threshold.

[0100] When the processing device includes a heating unit, it further includes: during the fermentation stage, turning on the heating unit to increase the temperature value inside the cooking chamber to a first temperature threshold; and during the steaming stage, turning on the heating unit to increase the temperature value inside the cooking chamber to a second temperature threshold.

[0101] Understandably, during the fermentation stage, flavor compounds include fermentation flavors.

[0102] In practical applications, the second temperature threshold is greater than or equal to the first temperature threshold.

[0103] Furthermore, the first temperature threshold T1 satisfies: 35℃≤T1≤45℃; the second temperature threshold T2 satisfies: 95℃≤T2≤110℃.

[0104] Specifically, T1 is any value among 36℃, 37℃, 38℃, 39℃, 40℃, 41℃, 42℃, 43℃, and 44℃.

[0105] T2 is any value among 96℃, 97℃, 98℃, 99℃, 100℃, 101℃, 102℃, 103℃, 104℃, 105℃, 106℃, 107℃, 108℃, and 109℃.

[0106] According to some embodiments of this application, the method for controlling cooking appliances further includes issuing a prompt message after the fermentation stage is completed and / or after the steaming stage is completed.

[0107] In this embodiment, a notification message is issued after the fermentation stage and / or the steaming stage are completed, so that the user is aware of the cooking progress.

[0108] like Figure 3 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a control device 300 for a cooking appliance is also provided for the control method of the cooking appliance as described in any of the first aspects. The control device 300 includes an acquisition unit 302 and a control unit 304. Specifically, the acquisition unit 302 is used to acquire the cooking stage of the cooking appliance; the control unit 304 is used to control the operation of the processing device according to the cooking stage, so that the pressure value in the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold at least in at least one stage of the cooking stage, wherein the cooking stage includes a fermentation stage and a steaming stage.

[0109] The control device 300 for a cooking appliance proposed in this application includes an acquisition unit 302 and a control unit 304. The control unit 304 is used to: acquire the cooking stage of the cooking appliance; and to control the operation of the processing device according to the cooking stage, so that the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold during at least one stage of the cooking stage. This increases the pressure inside the cooking chamber, reducing excessive expansion of the food's volume during cooking, thus controlling the food's volume and preventing it from becoming too porous. This increases the resistant starch content of the food, which is beneficial for controlling the consumer's blood sugar and weight.

[0110] The cooking process includes fermentation and steaming. When cooking steamed buns or similar foods, controlling the volume of the buns during fermentation and / or steaming can reduce excessive expansion, thereby increasing the resistant starch content and alleviating the problem of rapid blood sugar spikes in consumers.

[0111] It should be noted that the cooking appliance includes a cooking cavity and a processing device. The processing device can at least increase the pressure inside the cooking cavity. Specifically, the processing device can be a device that generates steam, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity by supplying steam into the cooking cavity. The processing device can also be a device that generates heat, thereby increasing the temperature inside the cooking cavity and thus increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity. The processing device can also compress the gas inside the cooking cavity, for example, by reducing the volume inside the cooking cavity, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity.

[0112] Furthermore, the pressure threshold is a set pressure value, which can be set according to the actual situation.

[0113] Furthermore, the pressure thresholds for the fermentation stage and the steaming stage are different.

[0114] Furthermore, after the fermentation stage is completed, the steaming stage begins.

[0115] According to one embodiment of this application, the pressure threshold includes a first pressure threshold and a second pressure threshold. During the fermentation stage, the control unit 304 activates the processing device to increase the pressure value inside the cooking cavity to the first pressure threshold, limiting excessive fermentation of the food and preventing excessive expansion of the food inside the cooking cavity. This controls the volume of the food, preventing it from becoming too fluffy and increasing the content of resistant starch. After the fermentation stage, the cooking appliance enters the steaming stage. During the steaming stage, the control unit 304 activates the processing device to increase the pressure value inside the cooking cavity to the second pressure threshold, preventing excessive expansion of the food inside the cooking cavity. This controls the volume of the food, preventing it from becoming too fluffy and increasing the content of resistant starch.

[0116] The second pressure threshold is greater than or equal to the first pressure threshold, which ensures that the ingredients can ferment fully during the fermentation stage and that the volume of the ingredients can be controlled during the steaming stage.

[0117] Understandably, increased resistant starch content slows down the absorption of food, thus controlling the glycemic index and benefiting people with blood sugar disorders and those trying to lose weight.

[0118] The first pressure threshold P1 satisfies: 5 kPa ≤ P1 ≤ 10 kPa. The second pressure threshold P2 satisfies: 10 kPa ≤ P2 ≤ 15 kPa. This prevents the steamed buns from becoming excessively fluffy inside during the steaming process.

[0119] In practical applications, P1 can be any value among 6 kPa, 7 kPa, 8 kPa, and 9 kPa. P2 can be any value among 11 kPa, 11.5 kPa, 12 kPa, 12.5 kPa, 13 kPa, 13.5 kPa, 14 kPa, and 14.5 kPa.

[0120] According to one embodiment of this application, the processing apparatus includes a pressurizing unit and a steam generating unit. The pressurizing unit is used to pressurize the cooking chamber during the fermentation stage, and the steam generating unit is used to supply steam into the cooking chamber to cook the food, while also increasing the pressure inside the cooking chamber. Specifically, during the fermentation stage, the control unit 304 controls the pressurizing unit to open, increasing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to a first pressure threshold, preventing the food inside the cooking chamber from over-expanding, thus controlling the volume of the food and preventing it from becoming too fluffy, thereby increasing the content of resistant starch. During the steaming stage, the control unit 304 controls the steam generating unit to open, supplying steam into the cooking chamber, increasing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to a second pressure threshold, preventing the food inside the cooking chamber from over-expanding, thus controlling the volume of the food and preventing it from becoming too fluffy, thereby increasing the content of resistant starch. That is, the pressure increases during the fermentation and steaming stages are achieved through the pressurizing unit and the steam generating unit, respectively.

[0121] It should be noted that the pressurizing unit can be a device that generates steam, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity by supplying steam into the cooking cavity. The pressurizing unit can also be a device that generates heat, thereby increasing the temperature inside the cooking cavity and thus increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity. The pressurizing unit can also compress the gas inside the cooking cavity. For example, the pressurizing unit is slidably connected to the cooking cavity, and the pressurizing unit divides the cooking cavity into two chambers. Through the movement of the pressurizing unit, the volume inside the cooking cavity where the food is placed is reduced, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity.

[0122] In addition, when the cooking chamber is pressurized by the processing device, the cooking chamber can be a sealed space or in an intermittent exhaust state, so that the pressure inside the cooking chamber is maintained within the first pressure threshold range.

[0123] According to one embodiment of this application, the processing device includes a steam generator. During the fermentation stage, the control unit 304 controls the steam generator to turn on and supplies steam into the cooking cavity according to a first output parameter, increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity to a first pressure threshold, thereby preventing over-fermentation of the food. During the steaming stage, the control unit 304 controls the steam generator to turn on and supplies steam into the cooking cavity according to a second output parameter, increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity to a second pressure threshold, thus cooking the food while reducing its volume after cooking. The embodiment proposed in this application uses a steam generator to regulate the pressure during both the fermentation and steaming stages; that is, the same component increases the pressure during both stages, reducing production costs and minimizing the overall size of the cooking appliance.

[0124] It should be noted that the first output parameter includes at least one of the steam temperature value and the steam quantity; the second output parameter includes at least one of the steam temperature value and the steam quantity.

[0125] It is understandable that the second output parameter is greater than or equal to the first output parameter.

[0126] The steam generation section includes a steam generator.

[0127] According to one embodiment of this application, the cooking appliance also includes a pressure relief valve. The pressure relief valve is connected to the cooking chamber and is used to relieve pressure in the cooking chamber. During the fermentation stage, the control unit 30 controls the pressure relief valve to close, and the processing device pressurizes the cooking chamber, enabling control of the food volume with relatively low energy consumption. During the steaming stage, the control unit 304 intermittently opens the pressure relief valve; that is, the control unit 304 opens the pressure relief valve at time intervals, and after opening the pressure relief valve, it sets a threshold for the opening duration, causing the steam in the cooking chamber to be released intermittently. This ensures both the temperature inside the cooking chamber for cooking the food and the pressure value inside the cooking chamber for controlling the food volume. After the steaming stage is completed, the pressure relief valve is opened to relieve pressure in the cooking chamber.

[0128] Specifically, the duration threshold and time interval can be set according to the actual situation. For example, the time interval can be greater than or equal to 2 minutes and less than or equal to 5 minutes, and the duration threshold can be greater than or equal to 1 minute and less than or equal to 2 minutes.

[0129] It should be noted that the pressure relief valve has an open state and a closed state. When the pressure relief valve is open, it connects the cooking chamber with the outside air, thereby relieving pressure in the cooking chamber. When the pressure relief valve is closed, it cuts off the connection between the cooking chamber and the outside air.

[0130] In practical applications, when the processing device includes a pressurization unit and a steam generation unit: during the fermentation stage, the pressurization unit is activated and the pressure relief valve is closed, causing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to increase to a first pressure threshold. During the steaming stage, the pressurization unit is deactivated and the steam generation unit is activated, with the pressure relief valve operating intermittently, causing the pressure inside the cooking chamber to increase to a second pressure threshold.

[0131] According to one embodiment of this application, during the fermentation stage, the control unit 304 controls the processing device to maintain the temperature inside the cooking chamber at a first temperature threshold, thereby generating flavor substances during the fermentation stage to enhance the taste of the food. During the steaming stage, the control unit 304 controls the processing device to maintain the temperature inside the cooking chamber at a second temperature threshold, thereby achieving the cooking of the food.

[0132] It should be noted that, when the processing device includes a steam generator, during the fermentation stage, the control processing device specifically includes: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam at a first temperature threshold into the cooking chamber, so that the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to the first pressure threshold and the temperature value is the first temperature threshold. During the steaming stage, the control processing device specifically includes: turning on the steam generator and supplying steam at a second temperature threshold into the cooking chamber, so that the pressure value inside the cooking chamber increases to the second pressure threshold and the temperature value is the second temperature threshold.

[0133] When the processing device includes a heating unit, it further includes: during the fermentation stage, turning on the heating unit to increase the temperature value inside the cooking chamber to a first temperature threshold; and during the steaming stage, turning on the heating unit to increase the temperature value inside the cooking chamber to a second temperature threshold.

[0134] Understandably, during the fermentation stage, flavor compounds include fermentation flavors.

[0135] In practical applications, the second temperature threshold is greater than or equal to the first temperature threshold.

[0136] Furthermore, the first temperature threshold T1 satisfies: 35℃≤T1≤45℃; the second temperature threshold T2 satisfies: 95℃≤T2≤110℃.

[0137] Specifically, T1 is any value among 36℃, 37℃, 38℃, 39℃, 40℃, 41℃, 42℃, 43℃, and 44℃.

[0138] T2 is any value among 96℃, 97℃, 98℃, 99℃, 100℃, 101℃, 102℃, 103℃, 104℃, 105℃, 106℃, 107℃, 108℃, and 109℃.

[0139] According to one embodiment of this application, the control device 300 of the cooking appliance further includes a prompting unit, which issues a prompting message after the fermentation stage and / or the steaming stage are completed, so that the user is aware of the cooking process.

[0140] like Figure 4 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, an electronic device 400 is provided, including: a processor 402 and a memory 404. The memory 404 stores programs or instructions that can be executed on the processor 402. When the program or instructions are executed by the processor 402, they implement the steps of the control method of the cooking appliance as described above.

[0141] The electronic device 400 provided by the present invention includes a memory 404 and a processor 402. Since the processor 402 can implement the control method of any of the above embodiments when executing the program or instructions on the memory 404, the electronic device 400 provided by the present invention has all the beneficial effects of the control method of any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0142] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a readable storage medium is provided having a program or instructions stored thereon, which, when executed by a processor, perform a control method for a cooking appliance as described above.

[0143] The readable storage medium provided by the present invention, since it stores a program or instructions for implementing the control method of any of the above embodiments, has all the beneficial effects of the control method of any of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0144] According to one embodiment of the present invention, a cooking appliance is provided, comprising: a control device 300 of the cooking appliance as described in any of the above embodiments; and / or an electronic device 400 as described in any of the above embodiments; and / or a readable storage medium as described in any of the above embodiments.

[0145] The cooking appliance provided by the present invention includes a control device 300 for cooking appliances according to any of the above embodiments, and / or an electronic device 400 according to any of the above embodiments; and / or a readable storage medium according to any of the above embodiments. Therefore, it has all the beneficial effects of the control device 300 and / or the electronic device 400 and / or the readable storage medium for cooking appliances, which will not be repeated here.

[0146] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a cooking appliance is provided, including a cooking cavity, a processing device, and a control unit 4.

[0147] Specifically, the processing device is at least capable of pressurizing the cooking chamber; the control unit 4 is connected to the processing device and is used to control the operation of the processing device according to the cooking stage of the cooking appliance, so that the pressure value in the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold in at least one stage of the cooking stage, wherein the cooking stage includes at least a fermentation stage and a steaming stage.

[0148] The cooking appliance proposed in this invention includes a cooking chamber, a processing device, and a control unit 4. The control unit 4 controls the operation of the processing device according to the cooking stage, so that the pressure value in the cooking chamber increases to a pressure threshold during at least one stage of the cooking process. In this way, when cooking food, the increased pressure in the cooking chamber reduces the excessive expansion of the food volume during the cooking process, thereby controlling the volume of the food and preventing the food from being too loose inside. This increases the resistant starch content of the food, which is beneficial for the control of blood sugar and weight of the consumer.

[0149] The cooking process includes fermentation and steaming. When cooking steamed buns or similar foods, controlling the volume of the buns during fermentation and / or steaming can reduce excessive expansion, thereby increasing the resistant starch content and alleviating the problem of rapid blood sugar spikes in consumers.

[0150] It should be noted that the cooking appliance includes a cooking cavity and a processing device. The processing device can at least increase the pressure inside the cooking cavity. Specifically, the processing device can be a device that generates steam, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity by supplying steam into the cooking cavity. The processing device can also be a device that generates heat, thereby increasing the temperature inside the cooking cavity and thus increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity. The processing device can also compress the gas inside the cooking cavity, for example, by reducing the volume inside the cooking cavity, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity.

[0151] Furthermore, the pressure threshold is a set pressure value, which can be set according to the actual situation.

[0152] Furthermore, the pressure thresholds for the fermentation stage and the steaming stage are different.

[0153] Furthermore, after the fermentation stage is completed, the steaming stage begins.

[0154] According to some embodiments of this application, the processing device includes: a steam generator 42 for supplying steam into the cooking cavity, and a control unit 4 connected to the steam generator 42; during the fermentation stage and the steaming stage, the processing device controls the steam generator 42 to be turned on.

[0155] In this embodiment, the processing device includes a steam generator 42. During the fermentation and steaming stages, the control unit 4 controls the steam generator 42 to operate and deliver steam into the cooking cavity to increase the pressure value inside the cooking cavity, thereby reducing production costs and decreasing the overall volume of the cooking appliance.

[0156] According to some embodiments of this application, the processing device includes a pressurization unit 40 and a steam generation unit 42. The pressurization unit 40 is used to pressurize the cooking chamber. During the fermentation stage, the control unit 4 controls the pressurization unit 40 to turn on. During the steaming stage, the control unit 4 controls the steam generation unit 42 to turn on and controls the pressurization unit 40 to turn off.

[0157] In this embodiment, the processing device includes a pressurization unit 40 and a steam generation unit 42. The pressurization unit 40 increases the pressure inside the cooking chamber during the fermentation stage, and the steam generation unit 42 increases the pressure inside the cooking chamber during the steaming stage, thus achieving separate control.

[0158] It should be noted that the pressurizing unit 40 can be a device capable of generating steam, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity by supplying steam into the cooking cavity. The pressurizing unit 40 can also be a device capable of generating heat, thereby increasing the temperature inside the cooking cavity and thus increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity. The pressurizing unit 40 can also compress the gas inside the cooking cavity. For example, the pressurizing unit 40 is slidably connected to the cooking cavity, and the pressurizing unit 40 divides the cooking cavity into two chambers. Through the movement of the pressurizing unit 40, the volume inside the cooking cavity where the food is placed is reduced, thereby increasing the pressure inside the cooking cavity.

[0159] According to some embodiments of this application, the pressurization unit 40 includes a heating element or a steam element.

[0160] In this embodiment, the pressurization unit 40 includes a heating element or a steam element to pressurize the cooking chamber by heating the cooking chamber or supplying steam to the cooking chamber.

[0161] According to some embodiments of this application, the cooking appliance further includes a pressure relief valve 46 and a heating element 44. The pressure relief valve 46 is in communication with the cooking chamber and is used to relieve pressure in the cooking chamber; the heating element 44 is used to supply heat to the cooking chamber.

[0162] In this embodiment, the cooking appliance also includes a pressure relief valve 46 and a heating element 44. The pressure relief valve 46 is used to relieve pressure in the cooking chamber, and the heating element 44 is used to heat the cooking chamber.

[0163] In specific applications, when the processing device includes a pressurization unit 40 and a steam generation unit 42: during the fermentation stage, the pressurization unit 40 is turned on and the pressure relief valve 46 is closed, causing the pressure value inside the cooking chamber to increase to a first pressure threshold. During the steaming stage, the pressurization unit 40 is turned off and the steam generation unit 42 is turned on, with the pressure relief valve 46 operating intermittently, causing the pressure value inside the cooking chamber to increase to a second pressure threshold.

[0164] According to some embodiments of this application, the cooking appliance further includes: an information input module 2, an information prompt module 1, and a calculation module 3. The information input module 2 is connected to the control unit 4 and is used to receive input information; the information prompt module 1 is connected to the control module and is used to issue prompt information; the calculation module 3 is connected to the control unit 4, the information input module 2, and the information prompt module 1 and is used to determine the working information of the processing device based on the input information and the prompt information.

[0165] In this embodiment, the cooking appliance also includes an information input module 2, an information prompting module 1, and a calculation module 3. Based on the information from the information prompting module 1 and the information input module 2, the calculation module 3 calculates the operating information of the processing device to control the processing device to operate according to the operating information.

[0166] The work information includes the work mode and work hours.

[0167] In practical applications, ordinary leavened steamed buns tend to have an overly porous interior. The control method designed in this application involves increasing fermentation pressure during the dough fermentation stage to control the dough's fermentation volume, without controlling the production of flavor compounds during fermentation. This controls the porous internal structure of the steamed bun while ensuring a relatively good fermented flavor. When making white flour steamed buns, increasing resistant starch can reduce the digestibility of the buns.

[0168] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the cooking appliance includes a steam oven, comprising a pressurization module (e.g., pressurization unit 40), a steam module (e.g., steam generator 42), a heating element module (e.g., heating element 44), a pressure relief valve 46 device module (e.g., pressure relief valve 46), an information prompt module 1, an information input module 2, a calculation module 3, a control unit 4, and a heating module 5. Multiple components work together during cooking until it is complete.

[0169] Specifically, based on the information from the information prompt module 1 and the information input module 2, the calculation module 3 calculates the working mode and time of the steam module, heating element module, pressurizing device module, and pressure relief valve 46 device module. The control unit 4 controls the operation of the pressurizing device module, steam module, heating element module, and pressure relief valve 46 module to control the fermentation volume of the steamed buns during the fermentation process.

[0170] During fermentation and steaming, the volume of the steamed buns is controlled by a pressure device. Specifically:

[0171] During the fermentation stage, the pressure of the fermentation environment is increased through the pressurization module and the pressure relief valve module 46, initially limiting the fermentation volume of the steamed buns. The fermentation temperature T1 is controlled at 35℃≤T1≤45℃ to ensure the production of fermented flavor substances. During this stage, the pressurization module is activated to increase the pressure, while the pressure relief valve module 46 is closed to ensure a stable rise in pressure P1, maintaining it at 5kPa≤P1≤10kPa. This initially limits over-fermentation of the steamed buns during the fermentation stage.

[0172] Steaming Stage: After fermentation, the steaming pressure control stage will be initiated. The steaming temperature is T2, 95℃≤T2≤110℃. During this stage, the pressure boosting module is closed, and the steam device is used to increase the pressure. At the same time, the pressure relief valve 46 module operates intermittently to ensure that the pressure P2 remains relatively stable, maintained at 10kPa≤P2≤15kPa. This prevents the steamed buns from becoming excessively fluffy inside during the steaming process.

[0173] After steaming, quickly reduce the pressure to further shrink the expanded volume of the steamed buns. Then the cooking process is complete.

[0174] In this invention, the term "multiple" refers to two or more unless otherwise explicitly defined. The terms "installed," "connected," "linked," and "fixed," etc., should be interpreted broadly.
