[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to specific embodiments and accompanying drawings. Similar elements in different embodiments are referred to by associated similar element reference numerals. In the following embodiments, many details are described to facilitate a better understanding of this application. However, those skilled in the art will readily recognize that some features may be omitted in different situations, or may be replaced by other elements, materials, or methods. In some cases, certain operations related to this application are not shown or described in the specification. This is to avoid obscuring the core parts of this application with excessive description. For those skilled in the art, detailed description of these related operations is not necessary; they can fully understand the related operations based on the description in the specification and general technical knowledge in the art.
[0030] Furthermore, the features, operations, or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any suitable manner to form various embodiments. At the same time, the order of the steps or actions in the method description can be changed or adjusted in a manner obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various orders in the specification and drawings are only for the clear description of a particular embodiment and do not imply a necessary order, unless otherwise stated that a particular order must be followed.
[0031] The serial numbers assigned to components in this document, such as "first" and "second," are used only to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. The terms "connection" and "linkage" used in this application, unless otherwise specified, include both direct and indirect connections (linkages).
[0032] like Figure 1 As shown, this application embodiment provides a heated non-combustible smoking device, which may include: a heating element 10, an airflow device 30, and a control device 20; wherein, the smoking device has an airflow channel, which is used to connect the aerosol generating matrix (such as a cigarette stick or cartridge) with the outside world, and the aerosol generated by the aerosol generating matrix can be drawn into the inlet of the airflow channel by the user's inhalation.
[0033] The heating element 10 is used to heat the aerosol generating matrix (such as a cigarette stick or cartridge) to generate aerosol and flow it into the airflow channel. The heating element 10 can be a resistive heating element or an electromagnetic heating element. This application uses a resistive heating element 10 as an example, but this application does not limit the specific form of the heating element 10.
[0034] The airflow device 30 is used to generate airflow in the airflow channel. The airflow device 30 can be implemented using available forms such as an air pump or a fan motor; this application does not limit the specific form of the airflow device 30.
[0035] The control device 20 is used to control the heating of the heating element 10 and the operation of the airflow device 30. During the process of controlling the heating element 10 to rise to the preset operating temperature, the airflow device 30 is controlled to generate airflow at a relatively low temperature to expel residual water vapor and water vapor generated by the aerosol generating matrix in the airflow channel, and also to remove other impurities. Subsequently, the airflow device 30 is controlled to stop operating, maintaining the heating element 10 at the operating temperature to heat the aerosol generating matrix and generate aerosols. The control device 20 can be implemented using one or more processing devices, such as MCUs or FPGAs.
[0036] It should be noted that the operating temperature of the heating element 10 is determined based on the atomization temperature of the specific aerosol generating matrix, and is generally 200℃-260℃. This embodiment uses a cigarette as the aerosol generating matrix, with the corresponding operating temperature of the heating element 10 being 200℃.
[0037] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 As shown, the control device 20 of the airflow device 30 of the smoking device provided in this application may include: a heating control module 21, a detection module 22 and an airflow control module 23.
[0038] The heating control module 21 is used to acquire a heating command triggered by the user and control the heating element 10 to heat. In some embodiments, it is also used to acquire a stop heating command and control the heating element 10 to stop heating. The stop heating command can be triggered by the user, such as when the user releases the ignition button; or it can be generated based on the response of the control device 20 to a preset event, such as when it is triggered after heating for a certain period of time.
[0039] The detection module 22 is used to acquire heating-related parameters of the heating element 10. These parameters may include at least one of heating duration, temperature, and resistance. For example, the detection module 22 can be implemented as a timing module, a temperature measurement module, or a voltage and current measurement module. For instance, when the heating element 10 is a resistive heating element, the temperature of the heating element 10 can be obtained by acquiring or calculating its resistance, such as using the TCR algorithm. Alternatively, temperature can be measured using a temperature sensor, and the heating duration can be recorded using a timer.
[0040] The airflow control module 23 is used to determine whether the heat-related parameters meet the first preset condition. If the heat-related parameters meet the first preset condition, the airflow device 30 is controlled to work with the first preset power parameter and generate airflow.
[0041] If the heating-related parameters do not meet the first preset condition, the airflow control device 30 will stop working.
[0042] Among them, under the condition that the heating-related parameters meet the first preset condition, the temperature of the heating element 10 is lower than its operating temperature.
[0043] For example, the heating element 10 is configured to heat from room temperature to 200°C within 20 seconds. The first preset condition can be a heating duration of 8-12 seconds from the start of heating of the heating element 10, or a temperature of 100°C-150°C. Under the first preset condition, the airflow control device 30 operates, generating airflow in the airflow channel. This airflow removes non-useful atomized substances such as water vapor from the airflow channel. The airflow control device 30 stops operating after the temperature exceeds 150°C or the heating time exceeds 12 seconds.
[0044] In other words, the first preset condition is determined based on the time and temperature of the smoking device when it is heated to the working temperature. During the heating process of the heating element 10, airflow is generated to effectively remove water vapor and impurities, resulting in a better user experience.
[0045] The specific process of controlling the smoking device or control device 20 is described below, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in the figure, this application provides a control method for a smoking device airflow device 30, which may include the following steps:
[0046] Step 1: Obtain the heating command triggered by the user and control the heating element 10 to heat up.
[0047] For example, users can trigger a heating command by pressing a button or using a touch screen. The heating control module 21 controls the heating element 10 to heat according to a preset heating curve or heating parameters (corresponding to the working temperature and the preset heating time to the working temperature), starting the heating from room temperature or a lower temperature to the preset working temperature.
[0048] Step 2: Obtain the heating-related parameters of the heating element 10, and determine whether the heating-related parameters meet the first preset condition. The heating-related parameters may include at least one of heating duration, temperature, and resistance. Wherein, under the first preset condition, the temperature of the heating element 10 is lower than the operating temperature. This embodiment uses heating duration and / or temperature as the heating-related parameters for illustration.
[0049] For example, during the heating process of the heating element 10, the detection module 22 continuously detects or detects the heating-related parameters of the heating element 10 at preset intervals, and the airflow control module 23 obtains the heating-related parameters of the heating element 10 and determines in real time whether the heating-related parameters meet the first preset condition.
[0050] In some embodiments, the heating-related parameters may include heating duration and temperature. It should be noted that the heating duration in the embodiments of this application may refer to the heating duration in a single heating cycle of the heating element.
[0051] In step 2, determining whether the heat-related parameters meet the first preset condition may include:
[0052] Step 210: Determine whether the heating duration of the heating element 10 is within the first preset duration range, and / or determine whether the temperature of the heating element 10 is within the first preset temperature range; the maximum value of the first preset temperature range is less than the operating temperature of the heating element 10.
[0053] Step 220: If the heating duration of the heating element 10 is within the first preset duration range, and / or the temperature of the heating element 10 is within the first preset temperature range, it is determined that the heating-related parameters meet the first preset condition.
[0054] Step 230: If the heating duration of the heating element 10 is not within the first preset duration range, and the temperature of the heating element 10 is not within the first preset temperature range, it is determined that the heating-related parameters do not meet the first preset condition.
[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, the airflow device 30 can be set to operate during the heating phase of the heating element 10. The decision to operate the airflow device 30 can be based on either the temperature of the heating element 10 or the heating duration of the heating element 10. That is, when the temperature Tf of the heating element 10 is between T1 and T2, and / or when the heating duration tf of the heating element 10 is between t1 and t2, the heating-related parameters of the heating element 10 can be considered to meet the first preset condition. Here, the first preset duration range is t1-t2, and the first preset temperature range is T1-T2.
[0056] In some embodiments, the maximum value T2 of the first preset temperature range is less than the operating temperature Tf of the heating element 10; and / or, the heating element 10 is configured to heat up to the operating temperature within a preset heating time, the first preset time range being less than the preset heating time.
[0057] Step 3: If the heating-related parameters meet the first preset conditions, control the airflow device 30 to operate with the first preset power parameters and generate airflow.
[0058] like Figure 4 As shown, for example, the heating element 10 is configured with a preset heating time of 20 seconds and an operating temperature of 200°C. The corresponding first preset temperature range (T1-T2) can be 100°C-150°C, and the first preset time range (t1-t2) can be 8 seconds-12 seconds. When the heating-related parameters of the heating element 10 meet the first preset conditions, the airflow control device 30 operates.
[0059] Step 4: If the heating-related parameters do not meet the first preset condition, the airflow control device 30 stops working.
[0060] Under the first preset condition, the airflow control device 30 operates, generating airflow in the airflow channel. The airflow removes non-useful atomized substances such as water vapor from the airflow channel. After the temperature exceeds 150°C or the heating time exceeds 12 seconds, the water vapor has been completely removed, and a small amount of atomized substances begin to atomize. At this point, the airflow control device 30 can be stopped.
[0061] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, in step 3, controlling the airflow device 30 to operate with a first preset power parameter and generate airflow may include:
[0062] Step 310: Calculate the first working power corresponding to the current heating-related parameters based on the current heating-related parameters.
[0063] In some embodiments, calculating the first operating power corresponding to the current heat-related parameters based on the current heat-related parameters may include:
[0064] Based on the current heat-related parameters and using preset discrete power parameters or a preset first power curve, the first operating power corresponding to the current heat-related parameters is calculated. In some embodiments, as the heating duration increases or the temperature rises, the corresponding first operating power does not increase at all, but may be in a decreasing state.
[0065] In these embodiments, when the first operating power is calculated using preset discrete power parameters, the airflow device 30 corresponds to multiple consecutive preset operating cycles, each preset operating cycle corresponding to a first operating power; the preset operating cycles are divided based on the changes in heating-related parameters. These cycles can be divided according to temperature changes, with one operating cycle every 10°C, or according to time changes, with one operating cycle every 2 seconds.
[0066] The discrete power parameters can be represented by [Fn, Pn], where Fn represents the heating-related parameters, which can be the heating duration t or the temperature T, and Pn represents the power of the airflow device 30. Therefore, the discrete power parameters for multiple operating cycles are {[F0, P0], [F1, P1], ..., [Fn, Pn]}, with each operating cycle corresponding to F0-F1, F1-F2, ...
[0067] For example, within the operating range of the airflow device 30, different power levels can be used for different operating cycles. For instance, when the first preset time range is 8S-12S, it can be divided into multiple operating cycles, such as 8S-9S, 9S-10S, 10S-11S, and 11S-12S, which can be driven by 100%, 90%, 80%, and 70% of the maximum power, respectively. Alternatively, the first preset temperature range can be 100℃-150℃, divided into 100℃-110℃, 110℃-120℃, 120℃-130℃, and 130℃-150℃, which can be driven by 100%, 90%, 80%, and 70% of the maximum power, respectively. The preset operating cycles can be evenly or unevenly divided.
[0068] In these embodiments, when calculating the first operating power using a preset first power curve, the first operating power is calculated according to the following formula;
[0069] PF = P(F);
[0070] Where PF represents the first operating power, P(F) is the function corresponding to the first power curve, and F represents the heat-related parameters. For example, P(F) can be a linear function, a quadratic function, or other functions. For instance, it can be a power-temperature function or a power-heating duration function.
[0071] Step 320: Based on the first working power and the maximum working power of the airflow device 30, determine the first duty cycle corresponding to the first working power.
[0072] Step 330: Control the airflow device 30 to operate according to the first duty cycle.
[0073] In some embodiments, when the airflow device 30 is in the form of a fan motor, the power can be controlled by controlling the current or voltage, or by adjusting the duty cycle. However, for airflow devices 30 such as air pumps, the overall power can only be adjusted by controlling the operating frequency, that is, by adjusting the duty cycle. Since this embodiment uses an air pump, it is necessary to control the operating power by changing the duty cycle.
[0074] For example, if the maximum power of the air pump is to work once every 0.2 seconds, it can work 5 times in 1 second. Assuming that the calculated first working power is adjusted to 60% of the maximum power, the first duty cycle is 60%. This means that the air pump needs to work 3 times in 1 second, which means that there is a 0.4 second period within 1 second when it is not working.
[0075] Of course, the above values are just examples. Regardless of whether it's a motor or an air pump, the effect can be achieved by adjusting the duty cycle. This is because as the temperature rises and the airflow device operates, the water vapor and impurities inside the smoking device are gradually expelled. Therefore, the airflow device does not need to operate at maximum power throughout the entire process. When the temperature approaches the operating temperature, the user begins to pay attention to the smoking device or has already placed it in their mouth. Therefore, using low-power control of the airflow device at this time can also reduce noise and further improve the user experience.
[0076] In some embodiments, such as Figure 5 As shown, after the heating element 10 stops heating, during the temperature drop phase of the heating element 10 and the cigarette, water vapor will also be generated. At this time, the water vapor can be drained through the airflow device 30. After the airflow device 30 stops working, step 5 can also be included:
[0077] Step 510: Control the heating element 10 to continue heating up to the working temperature.
[0078] Step 520: Obtain the stop heating command and control the heating element 10 to stop heating.
[0079] Step 530: Determine whether the heating-related parameters of the heating element 10 during the cooling phase meet the second preset condition.
[0080] Step 540: If the second preset condition is met, the airflow control device 30 operates with the second preset power parameters.
[0081] Step 550: If the second preset condition is not met, the airflow control device 30 stops working.
[0082] Step 530 may include:
[0083] Step 531: Determine whether the heating duration of the heating element 10 is within the second preset duration range, and / or determine whether the temperature of the heating element 10 is within the second preset temperature range; the maximum value of the second preset temperature range is less than the operating temperature of the heating element 10.
[0084] Step 532: If the heating duration of the heating element 10 is within the second preset duration range, and / or the temperature of the heating element 10 is within the second preset temperature range, it is determined that the heating-related parameters meet the second preset conditions.
[0085] Step 533: If the heating duration of the heating element 10 is not within the second preset duration range, and the temperature of the heating element 10 is not within the second preset temperature range, it is determined that the heating-related parameters do not meet the second preset conditions.
[0086] For example, such as Figure 5 As shown, the second preset temperature range can be 150℃-100℃, and the second preset duration range can be 38S-42S.
[0087] Since the airflow device is controlled to operate during heating and cooling respectively, step 5 above can refer to the relevant limitations of steps 1-4 in the above embodiment. The specific limitations of the second preset condition can refer to the limitations of the first preset condition, and the specific judgment method can also refer to the corresponding embodiment of the first preset condition. Similarly, the second preset power parameter can also refer to the limitations of the first preset power parameter, and will not be repeated here.
[0088] The control method provided in this application embodiment can be executed by the corresponding module in the control device for each step. That is, the specific process of each step can be the functional description of each module in the aforementioned control device embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
[0089] In summary, the embodiments of this application provide a control method, device, and smoking device for the airflow device 30. By controlling the airflow device 30 to generate airflow during the heating phase of the heating element 10 before it reaches the working temperature, the airflow device 30 is controlled to discharge water vapor in the air passage of the smoking device. When the heating element 10 is at the working temperature, the airflow device 30 does not work, so no noise is generated or useful atomized material is discharged before the user inhales, thus improving the user experience.
[0090] The same method can be used to drain the steam during the cooling phase to prevent water vapor generated during cooling from accumulating in the gas channel.
