[0039] In the following description, for the purpose of illustration rather than limitation, specific details such as specific system structures, technologies, etc. are proposed, so as to thoroughly understand the embodiments of the present application. However, it should be clear to those skilled in the art that the present application can also be implemented in other embodiments without these specific details. In other cases, the detailed description of well-known systems, devices, circuits and methods is omitted to prevent unnecessary details from hindering the description of the present application. In addition, in the description of the present application specification and the attached claims, the terms "first", "second", "third" etc. are only used to distinguish the description, and cannot be interpreted as indicating or suggesting relative importance.

[0040] Existing heating without burning appliances cannot identify the usage environment, and users can use the appliances in any environment scenario, which may have a significant impact on others and bring potential risks to users.

[0041] In view of the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a heating control method, device, controller and heating non-combustion appliance for a heating non-combustion appliance, which can identify the current use environment by using the carbon dioxide sensor provided in the appliance, and monitor the heating of the appliance based on the current use environment, thereby reducing the impact on others and reducing user risks. For more specific technical implementation details of the embodiments of the present application, please refer to the various embodiments described below.

[0042] like Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of a heating without burning appliance provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 The heating-not-burning device shown includes a controller, a carbon dioxide sensor, a heating element, and a battery module. The controller is electrically connected to the carbon dioxide sensor, the heating element, and the battery module. The controller can be used to control the temperature of the heating element. The heating element can be heated up under the control of the controller to bake the aerosol-generating matrix. The carbon dioxide sensor is used to detect the carbon dioxide concentration in the environment where the device is located. The battery module is used as a power source to provide electrical energy. In actual operation, the carbon dioxide sensor can be assembled into a CO 2 The functional module of the concentration sensor is added to the control circuit of the heat-not-burn appliance. When the heat-not-burn appliance is started, the carbon dioxide concentration of the environment in which the appliance is located can be detected by the carbon dioxide sensor to determine whether it is within the normal concentration range of the inhalable appliance, and whether the current use environment allows the appliance to be heated.

[0043] like Figure 2 , which is a schematic diagram of another heating without burning device provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 The heating-not-burning appliance shown includes a controller, a carbon dioxide sensor, an environment detection device, a heating element, and a battery module. The controller is electrically connected to the carbon dioxide sensor, the environment detection device, the heating element, and the battery module. Figure 1 compared to, Figure 2 The heating-not-burning appliance shown is added with an environment detection device, which is mainly used to detect the density of people in the environment where the appliance is located when the environmental parameters do not meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor, and judge whether the current use environment allows heating of the appliance.

[0044] It should be understood that the executor of each method embodiment of the present application is a controller provided in the heating without burning appliance, for example, it can be a device such as the main control chip of the heating without burning appliance, and the embodiments of the present application do not impose any restrictions on the specific type of the controller.

[0045] See also Figure 3 , shows a heating control method for a heating-not-burning appliance provided in an embodiment of the present application, comprising:

[0046] 301. When the heat-not-burn appliance is started, detecting environmental parameters of the physical space where the heat-not-burn appliance is located;

[0047] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, when the heating-not-burning device is started, the device will not be heated immediately, but it will be first determined whether the current use environment allows heating of the device. The heating module will be started only when the heating of the device is allowed, and the heating element will be heated according to the pre-stored temperature control curve. If the heating of the device is not allowed, it will not be heated, and the user can be prompted by sound and light. Specifically, the heating-not-burning device uses a carbon dioxide sensor to detect the carbon dioxide concentration in the physical space where the device is located, and identifies whether the current use environment allows heating of the device. In addition, since the carbon dioxide sensor has certain requirements for environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity when in use, if the current environmental parameters exceed the normal working range of the carbon dioxide sensor, the accuracy of the obtained carbon dioxide concentration result will be greatly reduced. Therefore, in order to ensure the accuracy of the obtained carbon dioxide concentration result, before using the carbon dioxide sensor, the environmental parameters of the physical space where the heating-not-burning device is located can be detected to determine whether the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor. In actual operation, devices such as temperature sensors and humidity sensors can be added to the heating-not-burning device to detect environmental parameters such as temperature and humidity, respectively.

[0048] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, a control circuit of the heating without burning appliance is provided with a humidity sensor and a temperature sensor; and the environmental parameters of the physical space where the heating without burning appliance is located are detected, including:

[0049] Before the heating non-combustion appliance is heated, temperature data detected by the temperature sensor is acquired as the ambient temperature, and humidity data detected by the humidity sensor is acquired as the ambient humidity.

[0050] A humidity sensor and a temperature sensor can be added to the control circuit of the heating-not-burning appliance, and the humidity sensor is used to detect the ambient humidity, and the temperature sensor is used to detect the ambient temperature. Considering that the heating of the appliance will affect the temperature and humidity of the appliance itself, and the actual ambient temperature and ambient humidity should not be affected by the heating of the appliance, therefore, when obtaining the temperature data detected by the temperature sensor and the humidity data detected by the humidity sensor, the data before the heating of the heating-not-burning appliance should be obtained, such as the data of the 0th second when the appliance is heated for the first time. As an example, the humidity sensor can be a humidistat, which is set in the control circuit of the appliance. Before the heating-not-burning appliance is heated, the current ambient humidity can be calculated based on the ambient temperature and the resistance value of the humidistat. As another example, the temperature sensor can be set at the PCB board or battery position of the appliance control circuit. Before the heating-not-burning appliance is heated, the temperature data fed back by the temperature sensor is obtained as the current ambient temperature.

[0051] 302. If the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor provided in the heating without burning appliance, the carbon dioxide concentration in the physical space is detected by the carbon dioxide sensor;

[0052] After detecting and obtaining the environmental parameters of the physical space where the heating-not-burning appliance is located, it is determined whether the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor. Only when the use conditions are met, the carbon dioxide sensor is used to detect the carbon dioxide concentration of the environment, so as to ensure the accuracy of the obtained carbon dioxide concentration results. On the contrary, if the environmental parameters do not meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor, the carbon dioxide sensor will not be started to detect the carbon dioxide concentration. At this time, other methods can be used to identify whether the current use environment allows heating of the appliance, such as the method of detecting the density of people through the environmental detection device shown below, or it can be directly determined that the use environment identification fails and the appliance will not be heated.

[0053] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the environmental parameters include ambient temperature and ambient humidity; whether the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor is determined by:

[0054] (1) Obtain the operating temperature range and humidity range of the carbon dioxide sensor;

[0055] (2) If the ambient temperature is within the operating temperature range and the ambient humidity is within the operating humidity range, it is determined that the ambient parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor; otherwise, it is determined that the ambient parameters do not meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor.

[0056] Carbon dioxide sensors usually use infrared absorption method to measure carbon dioxide concentration. The internal core components mainly include infrared light source, infrared light receiver and filter. The working principle of carbon dioxide sensor is: infrared light is emitted by infrared light source. After infrared light passes through the filter, only infrared light of specific wavelength can pass and enter the air. When infrared light passes through carbon dioxide molecules in the environment, it will be absorbed, resulting in the relative weakening of the light signal received by the infrared light receiver. That is, if the concentration of carbon dioxide in the air is higher, the intensity of the light signal received by the infrared light receiver will be weaker. According to the change of the intensity of the received light signal, the internal module of the sensor can calculate the current carbon dioxide concentration in the air. Extreme ambient temperature or ambient humidity will affect the absorption of infrared light, and then affect the sensitivity and stability of carbon dioxide sensor, resulting in the decrease of the accuracy of the obtained carbon dioxide concentration result. Therefore, each carbon dioxide sensor has its corresponding standard ambient temperature and humidity range, that is, the working temperature range and working humidity range. The heating non-combustion appliance can store the working temperature range and working humidity range in advance. After obtaining the current ambient temperature and ambient humidity, it is detected whether the ambient temperature is within the operating temperature range of the carbon dioxide sensor, and whether the ambient humidity is within the operating humidity range of the carbon dioxide sensor. Only when the ambient temperature and ambient humidity meet the range requirements at the same time, the accuracy of the carbon dioxide concentration result obtained by the carbon dioxide sensor meets the requirements, so at this time it is determined that the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor. On the contrary, if at least one of the ambient temperature and ambient humidity does not meet the range requirements, the carbon dioxide concentration result obtained by the carbon dioxide sensor is inaccurate, and at this time it is determined that the environmental parameters do not meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor.

[0057] 303. If the carbon dioxide concentration is within a preset concentration range, heating control is performed on the heating-not-burning appliance.

[0058] When the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor, the carbon dioxide sensor is started to detect the carbon dioxide concentration in the physical space where the heat-not-burn appliance is located, in units of ppm. Then, it is determined whether the carbon dioxide concentration is within the preset concentration range. If it is, it means that the carbon dioxide concentration in the current environment is within the normal range. It can be determined that the current use environment of the appliance is not a crowded non-smoking place such as an aircraft cabin, a high-speed rail or an elevator, so heating of the appliance is allowed. At this time, the heating module can be started, and the heating element can be heated according to the pre-stored temperature control curve.

[0059] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the method further includes:

[0060] If the carbon dioxide concentration is outside the preset concentration range, heating of the heat-not-burning appliance is prohibited, and a prompt message is output in a preset manner.

[0061] If the carbon dioxide concentration exceeds the preset concentration range, it means that the carbon dioxide concentration in the current environment is too high. It can be considered that the current use environment of the appliance is a crowded non-smoking place, so heating the appliance is prohibited. In actual operation, the carbon dioxide concentration range [A, B] of the standard ambient air in an open area outdoors can be obtained, and [A, B] can be stored in the register Flash of the heating non-combustion appliance. Assuming that the carbon dioxide concentration of the current environment detected by the carbon dioxide sensor is X, it is determined whether X is within the concentration range [A, B]. If so, it is considered that the current use environment allows the suction device, and the heating permission flag can be set to 1, and the heating module is started to heat the heating element; if X exceeds B, it means that the carbon dioxide concentration of the current environment is too high, and it may be in a crowded non-smoking place such as a high-speed rail or elevator, so the heating permission flag is set to 0, and the device is not allowed to be heated; for the case where X is less than A, since A is the minimum carbon dioxide concentration in the standard ambient air, the carbon dioxide concentration detected under normal circumstances will not be less than A, so it is considered that the carbon dioxide sensor may be faulty, and the obtained carbon dioxide concentration X is inaccurate. To be on the safe side, the heating permission flag is set to 0, and the device is not allowed to be heated. In addition, in the case where heating of a heat-not-burning device is prohibited, a prompt message can be output in a preset manner to remind the user that the current environment does not allow the suction device.

[0062] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, outputting prompt information in a preset manner includes:

[0063] (1) If the heating without burning appliance is provided with a digital tube screen, a designated digital tube of the digital tube screen is controlled to flash;

[0064] (2) If the heating without burning appliance is not provided with a digital tube screen, the heating without burning appliance is controlled to vibrate, and / or the indicator light of the heating without burning appliance is controlled to flash.

[0065] Generally speaking, heating-not-burning appliances can be divided into appliances with screens and appliances without screens. Appliances with screens are equipped with a digital tube screen, which can output a prompt message that the appliance is not allowed to heat by controlling the flashing of a specified digital tube on the digital tube screen. Appliances without screens are generally equipped with indicator lights and vibration devices, which can output a prompt message that the appliance is not allowed to heat by vibrating the appliance with the vibration device and / or controlling the flashing of the indicator lights.

[0066] The above is about using the carbon dioxide sensor to identify whether the current environment allows heating of the appliance. Next, the following describes the use of the environment detection device to identify whether the current environment allows heating of the appliance.

[0067] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the heating without burning appliance is provided with an environment detection device; the method further comprises:

[0068] (1) If the environmental parameters do not meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor, the human density in the physical space is detected by the environmental detection device;

[0069] (2) If the density of people is less than the set threshold, heating control is performed on the heating-not-burning appliance.

[0070] When the environmental parameters do not meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor, the carbon dioxide concentration result obtained by the carbon dioxide sensor is inaccurate, and the current use environment cannot be accurately identified based on the carbon dioxide concentration result. In view of this situation, the environmental detection device provided by the appliance can be used to detect personnel in the physical space where the appliance is located, identify the density of personnel in the physical space, and determine whether to allow the appliance to be heated based on the density of personnel. Considering the small size of the heating-not-burning appliance, a miniature environmental detection device is generally used, such as a miniature camera, a miniature radar, or a human infrared detector. As an example, an image of the physical space can be collected by a miniature camera, and personnel target detection can be performed on the image to obtain the number of people in the unit space, thereby calculating the density of people. As another example, the point cloud data of the physical space can be collected by a miniature radar, and the number of people in the unit space can also be obtained by analyzing and processing the point cloud data, thereby calculating the density of people. In actual operation, the maximum density of people that allows the suction appliance can be obtained as the threshold M, and M is stored in the register Flash of the heating non-combustion appliance. It is assumed that the density of people in the environment where the appliance is located is detected to be Y by the environmental detection device. If Y<M, it means that the density of people in the current environment is low, and the user is allowed to use the suction appliance, so the heating non-combustion appliance is heated; if Y≥M, it means that the density of people in the current environment is high, the user is not allowed to use the suction appliance, and the heating of the appliance is prohibited.

[0071] In one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, detecting the density of people in a physical space by an environment detection device includes:

[0072] (1) Detecting the number of people and volume of a physical space through an environmental detection device;

[0073] (2) Determine the density of people in the physical space based on the number of people and the volume of the space.

[0074] When using the environmental detection device to detect the density of people in the physical space where the equipment is located, the number of people and the volume of the space can be detected specifically. By calculating based on the number of people and the volume of the space, the number of people in the unit space can be obtained, thereby more accurately determining the density of people in the physical space.

[0075] In the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application, when the heating-not-burning appliance is started, the environmental parameters of the physical space where the heating-not-burning appliance is located are first detected. If the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor provided with the heating-not-burning appliance, the carbon dioxide concentration of the physical space is detected by the carbon dioxide sensor. When the carbon dioxide concentration is within the preset concentration range, it means that the current use environment is not a closed environment with dense personnel, and the heating control of the appliance can be performed normally at this time. On the contrary, when the carbon dioxide concentration is outside the preset concentration range, it means that the current use environment may be a closed environment with dense personnel, and the appliance is not heated at this time. It can be seen that the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application can monitor the heating of the appliance according to the current use environment of the heating-not-burning appliance, reducing the impact on others. Moreover, before using the carbon dioxide sensor to detect the carbon dioxide concentration, it will first detect whether the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor, so that the carbon dioxide sensor can be avoided from being used in an inappropriate environment and the accuracy of the obtained carbon dioxide concentration result can be ensured.

[0076] To facilitate understanding of the heating control method of the heat-not-burn appliance provided in the embodiment of the present application, an actual application scenario is listed below.

[0077] like Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the operation flow of the heating control method for a heating-without-combustion appliance provided in an embodiment of the present application in an actual application scenario. Figure 4In the application scenario shown, when the user starts the heating-not-burning device, the environmental parameters of the physical space where the device is located are first detected to determine whether the environmental parameters meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor. If the use conditions are met, the carbon dioxide concentration measurement module is enabled, and the carbon dioxide sensor is used to detect the current carbon dioxide concentration X in ppm. Then, the standard carbon dioxide concentration range [A, B] stored in the register Flash is read to determine whether X is within [A, B]. If it is, it means that the current use environment allows the suction device, and the heating permission flag is set to 1. The device controls the heating element according to the stored temperature control curve. If X is not within [A, B], it means that the current use environment is a closed and crowded environment, and the suction device is not allowed. At this time, the heating permission flag is set to 0, indicating that heating is not allowed. For devices with screens, the user can be prompted by flashing the corresponding digital tube LED icon, and for devices without screens, the user can be prompted by vibrating the device and / or flashing the indicator light. If the environmental parameters do not meet the use conditions of the carbon dioxide sensor, the environmental detection device of the appliance is activated, and the human density Y of the environment in which the appliance is located is detected by the environmental detection device to determine whether Y exceeds the set threshold value M. If it does not exceed, it means that the current use environment allows the suction device, and the heating permission flag is set to 1. The appliance controls the heating element according to the stored temperature control curve. If Y exceeds the threshold value M, it means that the current use environment is densely populated and the suction device is not allowed. At this time, the heating permission flag is set to 0, indicating that heating is not allowed, and the user can be prompted in the same way. Through such a setting, the heating of the appliance can be monitored according to the current use environment of the heat-not-burn appliance, reducing the impact on others and reducing the risk to the user himself.

[0078] It should be understood that the size of the serial numbers of the steps in the above embodiments does not mean the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of the present application.
