Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of kitchen appliance technology, and in particular to a control method, device, kitchen appliance and storage medium for a kitchen appliance. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, gas stoves and range hoods have become essential kitchen appliances in every household. However, with current technology, the amount of oil fumes produced by users varies in different cooking scenarios. Existing range hoods typically absorb oil fumes at a certain rate when the user turns them on, and this rate cannot be automatically adjusted according to the concentration of oil fumes. Users can only rely on their subjective judgment of the current amount of oil fumes and manually adjust the fan speed. Therefore, during the adjustment intervals, the oil fumes may escape everywhere due to insufficient fan speed, and manual operation also increases the inconvenience for users.

[0003] Currently, some range hoods on the market use temperature sensors to achieve intelligent control. However, in practice, when users are cooking, the temperature sensors are easily interfered with by the range hood's baffle, leading to inaccurate readings, misjudgments, and malfunctions, preventing the range hood from achieving true intelligence. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This invention provides a control method, device, kitchen appliance, and storage medium for kitchen appliances, which automatically adjusts the suction power of the fume extraction according to the temperature of the stove, thereby improving convenience.

The first open state is any state where the smoke baffle is completely closed, open at a first preset angle, or any state between the two. The second open state is any state where the smoke baffle is fully open, open at a second preset angle, or any state between the two. In the rotation direction of the smoke baffle, the included angle formed by the opening angles of the smoke baffle at the first preset angle and the second preset angle respectively coincides at least partially with the collection radiation angle of the temperature sensor.

[0018] Optionally, when the smoke baffle is in the first open state and the second open state, the temperature of the burner area of ​​the stove is collected in real time when the stove is on, including:

[0019] Before and after receiving the stove-on signal, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is on. The second preset time is the time required to adjust the smoke baffle from a completely closed state to an opening angle of the first preset angle, and the third preset time is the time required to adjust the smoke baffle from a completely closed state to an opening angle of the second preset angle.

[0020] Before the fourth preset time and after the fifth preset time after receiving the stove off action signal, the temperature of the stove burner area in the stove on state is collected in real time; wherein, the fourth preset time is the time required to adjust the smoke baffle from the fully open state to the second preset angle, and the fifth preset time is the time required to adjust the smoke baffle from the fully open state to the first preset angle, as measured in advance;

[0058] Example 1

[0059] Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of a kitchen appliance provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a side view of a kitchen appliance provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, for reference. Figure 1 , Figure 2 The kitchen appliance includes a cooktop 20 and a range hood 10 located above the cooktop 20. The range hood 10 is provided with a smoke baffle 40 and a temperature sensor 30 on the side facing the cooktop 20. When the cooktop 20 is turned on, the smoke baffle 40 rotates and opens, and in the rotation direction of the smoke baffle 40, the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30 is within the scanning angle range when the smoke baffle is turned on. Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating a kitchen appliance control method provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This method is applicable to the control of kitchen appliances and can be executed by a kitchen appliance control device, which can be implemented by software and / or hardware and is generally integrated into the kitchen appliance.

[0060] like Figure 3 As shown, the control method for a kitchen appliance provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention includes the following steps:

[0061] S110. During at least a portion of the effective temperature acquisition phase, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is turned on.

[0062] The effective temperature acquisition phase refers to the time period during which the smoke baffle does not block the temperature acquisition path when the stove is turned on.

[0063] Specifically, Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the working structure of a range hood provided in an embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 4When users cook, they generate oil fumes, so they need to turn on the range hood to absorb them. When the range hood is turned on, the temperature sensor 30 works, and its internal temperature probe collects the temperature within the range of the collection radiation angle α. When the range hood is turned on, the smoke baffle 40 needs to be opened. During the process of the smoke baffle 40 rotating from closed to fully open, it will enter the range of the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30 for a period of time, thus blocking the temperature collection path of the temperature sensor 30. During this period, the temperature collected by the temperature sensor 30 is not an accurate temperature of the stove burner area due to the interference of the smoke baffle 40. Therefore, it is necessary to collect the temperature during the period when the smoke baffle is not blocking the temperature collection path when the stove is on. The temperature during this period is the accurate temperature of the stove burner area.

[0064] S120. Determine the current cooking type based on the temperature of the stove burner area when the stove is turned on, as collected in real time.

[0065] Specifically, different cooking methods require different heat temperatures and produce different amounts of fumes. Therefore, after the temperature sensor 30 collects the temperature of the stove burner area in real time, it transmits the temperature information to the range hood. The range hood contains a controller, a calculator, and a memory. After receiving the temperature information, the controller compares it with the temperature data models of various stove states stored in the memory. For example, the temperature data models include non-working temperature ranges, ignition temperature ranges, stir-frying and stewing temperature ranges, etc., to determine the current cooking type.

[0066] S130. Adjust the airflow of the range hood according to the current cooking type.

[0067] Specifically, different cooking methods produce different amounts of fumes, thus requiring different airflow from the range hood. Therefore, the controller adjusts the range hood's airflow in real time based on the current cooking method. For example, when stir-frying, a high airflow setting is activated, while when stewing, a low airflow setting is activated.

[0068] This invention provides a control method for a kitchen appliance, comprising a cooktop and a range hood located above the cooktop. The range hood has a baffle plate and a temperature sensor on the side facing the cooktop. When the cooktop is on, the baffle plate rotates open, and the temperature sensor's collection radiation angle is within the scanning angle range when the baffle plate is open, along the rotation direction of the baffle plate. First, during at least a portion of the effective temperature acquisition phase, the temperature of the cooktop burner area is collected in real-time when the cooktop is on. The effective temperature acquisition phase is the period when the baffle plate does not obstruct the temperature acquisition path when the cooktop is on. Then, based on the real-time collected temperature of the cooktop burner area, the current cooking type is determined. Finally, the range hood's airflow is adjusted according to the current cooking type. This invention, by acquiring the cooktop temperature during the effective temperature acquisition phase, prevents the baffle plate from obstructing the temperature sensor's collection radiation angle, thus preventing abnormal temperature acquisition and resulting in higher temperature measurement accuracy. The range hood's airflow is constantly adjusted to follow the current cooktop temperature, achieving more precise and intelligent airflow regulation. 。

[0069] Example 2

[0070] Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method for a kitchen appliance according to Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Embodiment 2 is an optimization based on the above embodiments. In this embodiment, the temperature of the burner area of ​​the stove in the on state will be collected in real time during at least a portion of the effective temperature acquisition phase, further specified as follows:

[0071] The temperature of the burner area of ​​the stove is collected in real time when the smoke baffle is fully open or fully closed.

[0072] like Figure 5 As shown in Embodiment 2 of the present invention, a method for controlling a kitchen appliance includes the following steps:

[0073] S210. When the smoke baffle is fully open or fully closed, the temperature of the burner area of ​​the stove is collected in real time when the stove is on.

[0074] For details, please refer to Figure 4 When the range hood is fully open, the baffle 40 does not obstruct the temperature sensor 30. During this stage, the temperature collected by the temperature sensor 30 is not affected by the baffle 40 and is an accurate representation of the temperature of the cooktop burner area. Therefore, whether the baffle 40 is fully open or fully closed, the temperature sensor 30 can collect the temperature of the cooktop burner area in real time when the cooktop is on, obtaining a more accurate temperature and avoiding abnormal temperature collection caused by the baffle obstructing the view.

[0075] S220. Determine the current cooking type based on the temperature of the stove burner area when the stove is turned on, as collected in real time.

[0076] S230. Adjust the airflow of the range hood according to the current cooking type.

[0077] The technical solution of this invention collects the temperature of the burner area of ​​the stove in real time when the smoke baffle is fully open or fully closed, which avoids the interference of the smoke baffle on the temperature sensor, making the temperature collection more accurate and the air volume of the range hood more accurate, thus realizing more intelligent control of kitchen appliances.

[0078] Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating another control method for a kitchen appliance provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further optimizes the method by collecting the temperature of the stove burner area in the stove-on state in real time when the smoke baffle is fully open or fully closed. Specifically, after receiving a first preset time signal for the stove to open or close, and / or after receiving the stove to open or close signal and receiving a smoke baffle action stop signal, the temperature of the stove burner area in the stove-on state is collected in real time. The first preset time is a pre-measured time required to adjust the smoke baffle from fully closed to fully open.

[0079] Based on this, after a first preset time following the receipt of the stove-on or stove-off action signal, and / or, after receiving the stove-on or stove-off action signal and the smoke baffle action stop signal, before real-time acquisition of the temperature of the stove burner area in the stove-on state, the following steps may be added:

[0080] The time interval between receiving the stove start-up signal or stove stop-up signal and receiving the smoke baffle stop signal is determined to be within the preset time difference range from the first preset time.

[0081] For details not covered in this embodiment, please refer to Embodiment 1.

[0082] refer to Figure 6 The method includes the following steps:

[0083] S310. Determine that the time interval between receiving the stove start-up action signal or the stove stop-up action signal and receiving the smoke baffle action stop signal is within the preset time difference range from the first preset time.

[0084] The first preset time is the time required to adjust the smoke baffle from fully closed to fully open, as measured in advance.

[0085] Specifically, when the smoke baffle 40 is in the fully open or fully closed state, the push rod that drives the smoke baffle 40 will be limited to a position by the resistance cabinet, and the current of its push rod motor will increase to a limited value. At this time, a smoke baffle action stop signal will be issued. Because the smoke baffle and its mechanism accumulate sticky grease after long-term use, when the range hood is turned on again after a period of inactivity, the push rod is instantly powered on and pushed. Due to the grease adhering to the smoke baffle and the main unit, and the grease drying and becoming tight, the instantaneous resistance increases, easily exceeding the push rod's stop current limit. This can easily lead to a false smoke baffle action stop signal being issued, resulting in inaccurate judgment. Therefore, it is also necessary to determine the time interval between receiving the stove's on / off action signal and receiving the smoke baffle action stop signal, and compare it with a first preset time to determine whether the time difference is within the preset time difference range. The preset time difference range can be understood as a pre-set time range. When the time difference falls within this range, the smoke baffle 40 is considered to be normally open. At this time, the smoke baffle 40 is determined to be fully open or closed after the first preset time following the receipt of the stove's open or close signal, and after receiving both the open and close signals along with the smoke baffle's stop signal. This allows for real-time monitoring of the stove's burner area temperature when the stove is on. When the time difference exceeds the preset range, it is determined that the smoke baffle 40 is stuck to the main unit with grease and has not opened normally. The controller waits for the time taken for the smoke baffle 40 to complete its entire opening and closing process (recorded as X3), then supplies power to the push rod again, pushing the smoke baffle once or multiple times until it opens normally. Timing begins from the last push rod power supply, and after the first preset time, the operating state of the temperature sensor 30 is switched.

[0086] S320. After receiving the stove start-up signal or stove stop-up signal for a first preset time, and / or, after receiving the stove start-up signal or stove stop-up signal and receiving the smoke baffle stop signal, the temperature of the stove burner area in the stove start-up state is collected in real time.

[0087] Specifically, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the smoke baffle opening process provided in an embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 7 Angle b is the travel angle of the smoke baffle 40 from closed to blocking the area of ​​the temperature detection module 30, and the time taken is recorded as X1; angle c is the travel angle of the smoke baffle 40 as it passes through the area blocked by the temperature detection module 30, and the time taken is recorded as X2; angle d is the travel angle of the smoke baffle 40 throughout the entire process from closed to open, and the time taken is recorded as X3; angle e is the travel angle of the smoke baffle 40 from passing the temperature detection module 30 to fully open, and the time taken is recorded as X4. Figure 8 This is a logic block diagram of a kitchen appliance control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 8When the user starts cooking, they turn on the stove. The stove is then in standby mode. The temperature detection module 30 detects ignition and sends an ignition signal to the controller. The controller then controls the smoke baffle 40 to open and sends a stove-on signal, simultaneously starting a timer. During the opening of the smoke baffle 40, the data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is not included in the analysis. After a first preset time has elapsed since receiving the stove-on signal, it is determined that the smoke baffle 40 has traveled a travel angle of d, transitioning from fully closed to fully open. At this point, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30, and the data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is normally included in the analysis. Cooking ends when the temperature sensor 30 detects the flameout temperature. The smoke baffle 40 then begins to close, sending a stove-off signal, and the controller starts a timer again. During the closing of the smoke baffle 40, the data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is not included in the analysis. After a first preset time has elapsed since receiving the stove-off signal, it is determined that the smoke baffle 40 has traveled a travel angle of d, transitioning from fully open to fully closed. Temperature sensor 30 enters standby mode.

[0088] Figure 9 This is a logic block diagram of another kitchen appliance control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, for reference. Figure 9 In another embodiment of the present invention, when the user starts cooking, they turn on the stove. At this time, the stove is powered on and in standby mode. After the temperature detection module 30 detects ignition, it sends an ignition signal to the controller. The controller controls the smoke baffle 40 to open and sends a stove-on action signal. During the opening process of the smoke baffle 40, the data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is not included in the analysis and calculation. After the smoke baffle 40 has gone from fully closed to fully open, it stops at the fully open position and sends an action stop signal. At this time, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30, and the data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is normally included in the analysis and calculation until the temperature sensor 30 detects the flameout temperature. At this time, cooking ends, the smoke baffle 40 begins to close, and sends a stove-off action signal. During the closing process of the smoke baffle 40, the data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is not included in the analysis and calculation. After the smoke baffle 40 has gone from fully open to fully closed, it stops at the fully closed position and sends an action stop signal. The temperature sensor 30 enters standby mode.

[0089] In other embodiments of the present invention, due to the wear and tear of the moving parts of the range hood during long-term use, as well as the contamination from grease and grime, the resistance of the mechanism increases. This causes the baffle to open more slowly (i.e., the time taken to open increases). If the system detects that a first preset time has elapsed since receiving the cooktop start-up or cooktop stop-down signal, but the baffle has not yet fully opened / closed, it is necessary to wait for the baffle to stop moving to ensure that the baffle is open at the correct angle. Only then should the temperature sensor switch its operating state.

[0090] S330. Determine the current cooking type based on the temperature of the burner area when the stove is turned on, as collected in real time.

[0091] S340. Adjust the airflow of the range hood according to the current cooking type.

[0092] The technical solution of this invention, by receiving a stove-on or stove-off action signal for a first preset time, and / or, after receiving the stove-on or stove-off action signal and receiving a smoke baffle action stop signal, can more accurately determine whether it is in a completely closed or completely open state, so as to collect temperature in a completely closed or completely open state, avoid the baffle from blocking the temperature collection, achieve more accurate temperature collection, and thus make the air volume adjustment more precise and realize more intelligent kitchen appliance control.

[0093] Example 3

[0094] Figure 10 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method for a kitchen appliance provided in Embodiment 3 of the present invention. Embodiment 3 optimizes the above embodiments by further specifying S110, the real-time acquisition of the temperature of a preset area on the stove when the stove is turned on, in the effective temperature acquisition stage.

[0095] When the smoke baffle is in the first open state and the second open state, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is on.

[0096] refer to Figure 10 The method includes the following steps:

[0097] S410. When the smoke baffle is in the first open state and the second open state, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is on.

[0098] The first opening state includes the smoke baffle being in a completely closed state, an opening angle of a first preset angle, or any other state between these two. The first preset angle can be understood as a pre-set angle that, after the smoke baffle rotates from the completely closed position to the completely open position, will not obstruct the collection radiation angle of the temperature sensor 30. The second opening state includes the smoke baffle being in a completely open state, an opening angle of a second preset angle, or any other state between these two. The second preset angle can be understood as a pre-set angle that, after the smoke baffle rotates from the completely open position to the completely closed position, will not obstruct the collection radiation angle of the temperature sensor if it continues to rotate. In the direction of rotation of the smoke baffle, the included angle formed by the opening angles of the smoke baffle at the first preset angle and the second preset angle respectively coincides at least partially with the collection radiation angle of the temperature sensor.

[0099] For details, please refer to Figure 5 During the rotation of the smoke baffle 40 from a fully closed state to a fully open state, it first starts rotating from the fully closed position 41. After rotating a first preset angle b, it reaches the edge position 42 of the temperature sensor 30's collection radiation angle. During this rotation, the smoke baffle 40 is in the first open state, and it does not block the temperature sensor 30's collection radiation angle a. The temperature data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is the accurate temperature of the stove burner area, thus collecting the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the stove is on. The smoke baffle 40 rotates an angle c from the edge position 42 of the temperature sensor 30's collection radiation angle to another edge position 43. This process blocks the smoke. The baffle plate 40 blocks the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30, therefore the data collected by the temperature sensor 30 is not included in the analysis and calculation. The angle traversed by the baffle plate 40 from the fully closed position 41 to the other edge position 43 is the second preset angle. When the baffle plate 40 rotates an angle e from the other edge position 43 of the collection radiation angle of the temperature sensor 30 to the fully open position 44, the baffle plate is in the second open state during this rotation process. The baffle plate 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30, and the temperature data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is the accurate temperature of the stove burner area. Therefore, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is on. This achieves more comprehensive and effective temperature collection during the rotation of the baffle plate.

[0100] S420. Determine the current cooking type based on the temperature of the stove burner area when the stove is turned on, as collected in real time.

[0101] S430. Adjust the airflow of the range hood according to the current cooking type.

[0102] The technical solution of this invention, by collecting the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the smoke baffle is in the first open state and the second open state, can more accurately and comprehensively collect the temperature of all effective temperature collection stages during the operation of the range hood, thereby achieving more precise airflow adjustment and making kitchen appliances more intelligent.

[0103] Figure 11 This is a flowchart illustrating another control method for a kitchen appliance provided in Embodiment 3 of the present invention. It further specifies that, when the smoke baffle is in the first open state and the second open state, the temperature of the burner area of ​​the stove is collected in real time during the stove's on-state operation.

[0104] Before and after a second preset time when the stove is turned on, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is turned on.

[0105] Before the fourth preset time before receiving the stove's shut-off signal and after the fifth preset time, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is on.

[0106] refer to Figure 11 The method includes the following steps:

[0107] S510: Before receiving the stove start signal and before the second preset time and after the third preset time, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is turned on.

[0108] The second preset time is the time required for the adjustable smoke baffle to go from a completely closed state to an opening angle of the first preset angle, which is measured in advance. The third preset time is the time required for the adjustable smoke baffle to go from a completely closed state to an opening angle of the second preset angle, which is measured in advance.

[0109] For details, please refer to Figure 5Since the time required for the smoke baffle 40 to change from a completely closed state to an open angle of the first preset angle is the second preset time, during this process, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. The temperature data detected by the temperature sensor 30 is the accurate temperature of the stove burner area. Therefore, before receiving the stove opening action signal and before the second preset time, the temperature of the stove burner area in the stove opening state is collected in real time. During the rotation of the smoke baffle 40 from a completely closed state to a completely open state, after changing from a completely closed state to an open angle of the second preset angle, it still needs to rotate from the second preset angle position 43 to the fully open position 44. During the rotation from the second preset angle position 43 to the fully open position 44, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. Therefore, after the third preset time required for the smoke baffle 40 to change from a completely closed state to an open angle of the second preset angle, the temperature of the stove burner area in the stove opening state is collected in real time.

[0110] S520: Before receiving the stove shut-off action signal and before the fourth preset time, and after the fifth preset time, the temperature of the stove burner area when the stove is on is collected in real time.

[0111] The fourth preset time is the time required for the adjustable smoke baffle to go from a fully open state to an opening angle of a second preset angle, which is measured in advance. The fifth preset time is the time required for the adjustable smoke baffle to go from a fully open state to an opening angle of a first preset angle, which is measured in advance.

[0112] Specifically, after the user finishes cooking and turns off the stove, the controller receives the stove-off action signal and controls the smoke baffle 40 to change from a fully open state to a fully closed state. During the process of the smoke baffle 40 changing from a fully open state to an opening angle of the second preset angle, it does not block the collection radiation angle of the temperature sensor 30. Therefore, before the time required for the smoke baffle to change from a fully open state to an opening angle of the second preset angle after receiving the stove-off action signal, the temperature sensor 30 collects the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the stove is on. During the rotation of the smoke baffle 40 from a fully open state to a fully closed state, after changing from a fully open state to an opening angle of the first preset angle, it still needs to rotate from the first preset angle position 42 to the fully closed position 41. During the rotation from the first preset angle position 42 to the fully closed position 41, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. Therefore, after the fifth preset time required for the smoke baffle 40 to change from a fully open state to an opening angle of the first preset angle, the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the stove is on is collected.

[0113] S530: Determine the current cooking type based on the temperature of the stove burner area when the stove is turned on, as collected in real time.

[0114] S540. Adjust the airflow of the range hood according to the current cooking type.

[0115] Figure 12 This is a schematic diagram of a push rod motor structure provided in Embodiment 3 of the present invention, for reference. Figure 12 The smoke machine is also equipped with a push rod motor, which includes a housing and a moving rod located inside the housing. One end of the moving rod is hinged to the smoke baffle. A first signal device 51 and a second signal device 52 are installed inside the housing, and a sensor 53 is installed on the moving rod. The signal device can be a micro switch, a Hall switch, etc.

[0116] When the moving rod drives the smoke baffle to move to the opening angle of the first preset angle, the sensor on the moving rod moves to the position of the first signal device and generates the first sensing signal;

[0117] When the moving rod drives the smoke baffle to move to the second preset opening angle, the sensor on the moving rod moves to the position of the second signal device and generates a second sensing signal;

[0118] Figure 13 This is a flowchart illustrating another control method for a kitchen appliance provided in Embodiment 3 of the present invention. It further specifies that, when the smoke baffle is in the first open state and the second open state, the temperature of the burner area of ​​the stove is collected in real time during the stove's on-state operation.

[0119] After receiving the stove start signal, and before detecting the first sensing signal and after detecting the second sensing signal, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is on.

[0120] After receiving the stove shut-off signal, and before detecting the second sensing signal and after detecting the first sensing signal, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is on.

[0121] refer to Figure 13 The method includes:

[0122] S610. After receiving the stove start signal, and before detecting the first sensing signal and after detecting the second sensing signal, the temperature of the stove burner area is collected in real time when the stove is turned on.

[0123] For details, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 9When the push rod's stroke is AA, the smoke baffle 40 rotates from closed to open, covering a full range of angles d. When the push rod's stroke is BB, the smoke baffle 40 rotates from closed to covering the temperature detection module 30, covering an angle b. When the push rod's stroke is CC, the smoke baffle 40 rotates through the area covered by the temperature detection module 30, covering an angle c. When the push rod's stroke is EE, the smoke baffle 40 rotates past the temperature detection module 30 to fully open, covering an angle e. When the user starts cooking, the controller controls the smoke baffle 40 to open and sends a stove-start signal. The smoke baffle 40 rotates from closed to open. When the smoke baffle 40 rotates from closed to covering the temperature detection module 30, i.e., when the push rod's stroke is BB, the moving rod... The sensor 53 moves to the position of the first signaler 51 and generates a first sensing signal. During this process, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. The temperature sensor 30 collects the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the stove is on. When the moving rod drives the smoke baffle to move to the second preset opening angle, the stroke of the moving rod is BB+CC. The sensor 53 on the moving rod moves to the position of the second signaler 52 and generates a second sensing signal. After this, the moving rod continues to push EE a distance. During the process of driving the smoke baffle to fully open, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. The temperature sensor 30 collects the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the stove is on.

[0124] S620: After receiving the stove shut-off action signal, and before detecting the second sensing signal and after detecting the first sensing signal, the temperature of the stove burner area in real time is collected when the stove is on.

[0125] Specifically, when the user needs to turn off the stove, the controller receives a stove-off action signal. The smoke baffle 40 needs to go from the fully open state to the fully closed state. Therefore, the moving rod retracts, first moving a distance EE, the smoke baffle 40 rotates an angle e, and the sensor 53 on the moving rod moves to the position of the second signal device 52 and generates a second sensing signal. During this process, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. The temperature sensor 30 collects the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the stove is on. Then, the moving rod moves a distance CC, the smoke baffle 40 rotates an angle c, and the sensor 53 on the moving rod moves to the position of the first signal device 51 and generates a first sensing signal. During this process, the smoke baffle 40 blocks the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. Finally, the moving rod moves a distance BB, the smoke baffle 40 rotates an angle b, until the smoke baffle 40 is fully closed. During this process, the smoke baffle 40 does not block the collection radiation angle α of the temperature sensor 30. The temperature sensor 30 collects the temperature of the stove burner area in real time when the stove is on.

[0126] S630: Determine the current cooking type based on the temperature of the burner area when the stove is turned on, as collected in real time.

[0127] S640. Adjust the airflow of the range hood according to the current cooking type.
