Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a power control method, device, multi-cavity functional box, and integrated appliance. Background Technology

[0002] A multi-cavity functional oven is a device that integrates two or more functional chambers, including but not limited to steam ovens, ovens, steam ovens, and air fryers. In a multi-cavity functional oven, if two or more functional chambers operate at their maximum heating power simultaneously, the total power of the functional chambers may exceed the limit.

[0003] In related technologies, in order to ensure that the total power of two functional boxes in a multi-cavity functional box operating at maximum heating power simultaneously does not exceed the limit, the maximum heating power of each functional box is limited at the factory to reduce the maximum heating power of each functional box.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors discovered that reducing the maximum heating power of each functional box would result in a longer heating time for food when a single functional box is in operation. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0056] The present application will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

These terms are used solely for descriptive purposes and do not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. Furthermore, the use of numerical quantifiers such as "first," "second," and "third" is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance. Additionally, in this application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, interference fits, transition fits, or integral connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium. Therefore, those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0058] This application provides a power control method, referring to... Figure 1 As one implementation of a power control method, it includes the following steps:

[0059] Step 101: Receive the work instruction for controlling the operation of the first function box.

[0060] Specifically, users can send work commands to the multi-cavity functional box via an app, mini-program, or webpage on a smart terminal. The aforementioned smart terminals include, but are not limited to, smartphones, smart bracelets, tablets (portable Android devices), and laptops. The multi-cavity functional box can communicate with the smart terminal via wired and wireless communication. Wireless communication includes, but is not limited to, WiFi, cellular networks, Bluetooth, and ZigBee. In other embodiments, a touch panel or buttons can be provided on the multi-cavity functional box; users can also send work commands via the touch panel or buttons. The first and second functional boxes can be configured with separate processors or share a single processor; when the first and second functional boxes are configured with separate processors, the two processors can communicate with each other. The aforementioned processors include, but are not limited to, ARM (Advanced RISC Machines) processors, microcontrollers, and FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Arrays). The aforementioned functional boxes include, but are not limited to, steam ovens, ovens, steam ovens, and air fryers. The multi-cavity functional box can be an integration of functional boxes with different functions or an integration of functional boxes with the same functions.

[0061] Step 102: Determine whether the second function box is in operation; if so, proceed to step 103.

[0062] Specifically, after receiving the working instruction to control the operation of the first functional box, the processor obtains the operating data of the second functional box (including but not limited to current, voltage, temperature, and power) to determine whether the second functional box is in operation.

[0063] Step 103: Determine whether the total heating power of the first power curve and the second power curve in real time is greater than the heating power threshold; if it is greater, proceed to step 104.

[0064] The first power curve is the heating power curve of the first functional box when a single cavity is working under the working command; the second power curve is the heating power curve of the second functional box when a single cavity is working under the operating state.

[0065] Specifically, the heating power threshold is related to the maximum power of the multi-cavity functional box and the total power of its non-heating components. N ≤ a*MP, or N ≤ a*(MP); where N is the heating power threshold; M is the maximum power of the multi-cavity functional box, which can be the maximum power specified in national industry safety regulations, such as 3520W; a is a constant coefficient greater than 0 and less than 1. Since fluctuations in mains voltage can cause fluctuations in the actual power of the multi-cavity functional box, a constant coefficient a is set to ensure safe operation; P is the total power of the non-heating components of the multi-cavity functional box; non-heating components include, but are not limited to, components in the control device of the multi-cavity functional box, components in the lighting device, and hot air blowers. When integrating the multi-cavity functional box into integrated appliances with other functions, such as integrated stoves or integrated sinks, the power of other components of the integrated appliance also needs to be considered when calculating M.

[0066] Step 104: Adjust at least one of the first power curve and the second power curve so that the total real-time heating power of the first functional box and the second functional box after adjustment is not greater than the heating power threshold.

[0067] In related technologies, in order to ensure that the total power of two functional chambers in a multi-chamber functional box operating at their maximum heating power simultaneously does not exceed the limit, a method is adopted to reduce the maximum heating power of each functional chamber separately. Even when a single functional chamber is operating, the maximum heating power of a single functional chamber is still limited, which increases the heating time of the functional chamber on the food, which is not conducive to food processing.

[0068] When the second functional box is in operation and needs to use the first functional box, the processor first determines whether the sum of the real-time power of the first functional box's first power curve and the second functional box's second power curve exceeds the heating power threshold. If the calculated real-time power sum exceeds the heating power threshold, controlling the first functional box according to the first power curve and the second functional box according to the second power curve could easily cause the total power of the multi-cavity functional box to exceed the limit, which is detrimental to the operation of the multi-cavity functional box. In this application, when the calculated real-time power sum exceeds the heating power threshold, the processor adjusts at least one of the first and second power curves so that the adjusted total heating power does not exceed the heating power threshold, ensuring that the total power of the multi-cavity functional box meets the standard. This not only increases the heating power when a single functional box is working, but also ensures that the total power of the multi-cavity functional box meets the standard when multiple functional boxes are working. At the same time, the real-time power sum of the first and second power curves is greater than the safe power, ensuring that the heating power of at least one functional box when working in a single cavity is greater than the corresponding heating power when working in two cavities simultaneously, thereby helping to shorten the heating time of that functional box when working in a single cavity.

[0069] As one specific implementation of step 104, adjusting at least one of the first power curve and the second power curve includes the following steps:

[0070] Step 201: Determine whether the second functional box is in the preheating stage; if so, proceed to step 202.

[0071] Specifically, temperature sensors can be installed in both the first and second functional boxes. These sensors detect the temperature of the second functional box during operation and emit temperature information. For example, during the preheating phase, the temperature in the functional box changes over time. By analyzing the temperature changes in the second functional box, it can be determined whether the second functional box is in the preheating phase. Since there is a corresponding preheating time for each functional box, the preheating duration (obtained through a time signal) can also be used to determine whether the second functional box is in the preheating phase. Because heating causes changes in the density of the gas inside the functional box, resulting in changes in the pressure, a pressure sensor can be installed inside the functional box. This sensor detects the pressure changes and emits a pressure signal. By analyzing this pressure signal, it can be determined whether the second functional box is in the preheating phase.

[0072] Step 202: Control the second function box to continue heating with the second power curve, and control the first function box to heat with the third power curve.

[0073] The total heating power of the second and third power curves in real time is not greater than the heating power threshold.

[0074] Specifically, whether it's a steam oven or a regular oven, the entire working process can be divided into two stages: the preheating stage and the heating stage (also known as the heat preservation stage). The preheating stage is to prevent food from undergoing a slow temperature rise, which could affect the quality of the finished product. The preheating stage involves the oven heating the cavity from room temperature to the set temperature (or reaching the preheating temperature corresponding to the operating command). The heating stage refers to the process where, after the cavity reaches the set temperature, it maintains that temperature or fluctuates slightly around it. The average heating power during the heating stage is lower than the average heating power during the preheating stage. Because the temperature change inside the oven and the heating power change are not linearly related, reducing the heating power during the preheating stage will require double the preheating time or may even prevent the oven from reaching the preheating temperature.

[0075] In this application, the processor determines whether the second functional box is in the preheating stage. If it is determined that the second functional box is in the preheating stage, the processor controls the second functional box to continue heating with the second power curve and controls the first functional box to heat with the third power curve. That is, if the second functional box is in the preheating stage, it continues to operate with the second power curve corresponding to the single-cavity operation of the second functional box, which is more conducive to the heating of food by the second functional box. At this time, in order to ensure that the total power of the dual-cavity operation meets the standard, the processor controls the first power curve corresponding to the first functional box to be changed to the third power curve with a lower real-time power. This ensures that the real-time sum of the second power curve and the third power curve does not exceed the safe power, and the total power of the multi-cavity functional box still meets the standard.

[0076] As another specific implementation of step 104, adjusting at least one of the first power curve and the second power curve includes the following steps:

[0077] Step 301: Determine whether the second functional box is in the preheating stage; if not, proceed to step 302.

[0078] Step 302: Control the second functional box to heat using the fourth power curve, and control the first functional box to heat using the first power curve.

[0079] The total heating power of the fourth power curve and the first power curve is not greater than the heating power threshold.

[0080] Specifically, when the processor determines that the second functional box is not in the preheating stage, the processor controls the second functional box to heat using the fourth power curve, and controls the first functional box to heat using the first power curve. That is, if the second functional box is not in the preheating stage, the processor controls the first functional box to operate using the first power curve corresponding to single-cavity operation. This ensures that the first functional box can reach the temperature required for the preheating stage or reduces the time required for the first functional box to reach the required temperature. Simultaneously, by reducing the power of the second functional box during the heating stage, the processor controls the second functional box to heat using the fourth power curve, ensuring that the total heating power of the fourth power curve and the first power curve does not exceed the heating power threshold.

[0081] As another implementation of the power control method, the method further includes:

[0082] Step 401: Determine whether the first functional box is in the preheating stage; if not, proceed to step 402.

[0083] Step 402: When both the first and second function boxes are in the heating stage, control the first function box to heat using the fifth power curve and control the second function box to heat using the sixth power curve.

[0084] The total real-time power of the fifth and sixth power curves is less than the heating power threshold; the real-time power of the fifth power curve is less than the real-time power of the first power curve; and the real-time power of the sixth power curve is less than the real-time power of the second power curve.

[0085] Specifically, as mentioned earlier, the heating power of the first functional box during the preheating stage is greater than that during the heating stage. Since the first functional box starts later, it enters the heating stage after finishing the preheating stage. When both the first and second functional boxes are in the heating stage, the processor controls the first functional box to heat using the fifth power curve and controls the second functional box to heat using the sixth power curve. By simultaneously reducing the real-time power of the first and second functional boxes during the heating stage (the reduction in power can be the same or different), the heating time of the first and second functional boxes becomes more even, avoiding the situation where one functional box takes too long to heat, which is more conducive to heating food.

[0086] As one embodiment of step 402, when both the first functional box and the second functional box are in the heating stage, the first functional box is controlled to heat with the fifth power curve and the second functional box is controlled to heat with the sixth power curve, including a first heating step and a second heating step.

[0087] The first heating step includes: controlling the first heating element in the first functional box to work, controlling the second heating element in the second functional box to stop working, and executing the second heating step after a preset first time.

[0088] The second heating step includes: controlling the first heating element in the first functional box to stop working, controlling the second heating element in the second functional box to work, and executing the first heating step after a preset second time period;

[0089] Wherein, A+B>C; A is the power of the first functional box when it is heated by the fifth power curve and the first heating element is working; B is the power of the second functional box when it is heated by the sixth power curve and the second heating element is working; C is the heating power threshold; D+B≤C; D is the power of the first functional box when it is heated by the fifth power curve and the first heating element is not working; A+E≤C; E is the power of the second functional box when it is heated by the sixth power curve and the second heating element is not working.

[0090] Specifically, although the temperature of the heating element does not immediately drop after it stops working, it can still heat the gas inside the cavity for a certain period of time. In the first heating step, the first heating element in the first functional box is controlled to work, and the second heating element in the second functional box is controlled to stop working. After a preset first time, the second heating step is executed. At this time, the temperature of the second functional box can still be maintained near the temperature of the preset heating stage. In the second heating step, the first heating element in the first functional box is controlled to stop working, and the second heating element in the second functional box is controlled to work. After a preset second time, the first heating step is executed. At this time, the second heating element starts working again, causing the second heating element to heat up again and continue to heat the cavity of the second steamer. That is to say, the first heating element and the second heating element work intermittently and alternately. Through this setting, when both cavities work simultaneously, the first and second functional boxes can meet the safety power standards while relatively reducing the heating time, thereby increasing the heating speed of food. At the same time, since the temperature in each cavity is more stable, it is also beneficial to the preparation of food.

[0091] As another implementation of the power control method, the method further includes: when the second functional box finishes working and the first functional box is in working state, controlling the first functional box to heat with a first power curve; or, when the first functional box finishes working and the second functional box is in working state, controlling the second functional box to heat with a second power curve.

[0092] Specifically, when one functional box finishes working, in order to reduce the heating time of the other functional box, when the second functional box finishes working and the first functional box is in operation, the controller controls the first functional box to continue working with a first power curve. That is, it controls the first functional box to return to the power curve it used when operating in single-cavity mode and continue working, thereby increasing the heating power of the first functional box and reducing its remaining heating time. When the first functional box finishes working and the second functional box is in operation, the controller controls the second functional box to continue working with a second power curve. That is, it controls the second functional box to return to the power curve it used when operating in single-cavity mode and continue working, thereby increasing the heating power of the first functional box and reducing its remaining heating time.

[0093] This application also provides a power control device, referring to... Figure 5 As one embodiment of a power control device, the device includes:

[0108] Wherein, A+B>C; A is the power of the first functional box when it is heated by the fifth power curve and the first heating element is working; B is the power of the second functional box when it is heated by the sixth power curve and the second heating element is working; C is the heating power threshold; D+B≤C; D is the power of the first functional box when it is heated by the fifth power curve and the first heating element is not working; A+E≤C; E is the power of the second functional box when it is heated by the sixth power curve and the second heating element is not working.
