Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water purification equipment, and in particular to a stewing method of water supply equipment, water supply equipment, and a computer-readable storage medium. Background Art

[0002] At present, some desktop water purifiers are equipped with brewing pots, which can accurately control the stewing temperature and time to meet the cooking requirements of different ingredients. For example, some brewing pots can set different temperature levels for brewing different types of tea or stewing different ingredients, and can also set the stewing time, so that the brewing pot has multiple functions, such as boiling water, green tea, scented tea, stewing, steaming, etc.

[0003] When the user takes out the brewing pot, the boiling function of the brewing pot will be suspended. In addition, when the water dispenser supplies hot water to the user, the brewing pot in use will be interrupted due to the total power limitation of the water dispenser. In the existing equipment, when the stewing process of the brewing pot is interrupted, the stewing program is interrupted, and the remaining stewing program is continued after the brewing pot is restored, which reduces the stewing quality. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to at least solve the problem that when the stewing process of the brewing pot is interrupted and resumed, the remaining stewing program that continues to be executed reduces the stewing quality. This purpose is achieved by the following methods:

[0005] According to a first aspect of the present invention, a stewing method for a water supply device is proposed, wherein the water supply device comprises a brewing pot, and the stewing method comprises: obtaining a stewing mode of the brewing pot; obtaining an interruption duration from an interruption moment when stewing of the brewing pot is interrupted to a recovery moment when stewing is resumed; determining a compensatory stewing program corresponding to the stewing mode based on the interruption duration being less than a first preset duration; controlling the brewing pot to execute the compensatory stewing program from the recovery moment; controlling the brewing pot to exit the stewing mode based on the interruption duration being greater than or equal to a first preset duration; wherein the first preset time is greater than zero.

[0006] According to the stewing method of the water supply equipment of the present invention, in the case of a short interruption time, by determining and executing a compensatory stewing program, the impact of the interruption can be effectively compensated, making the stewing process more stable, thereby improving the stewing quality. Compared with the existing solution that resumes and continues to execute the original remaining stewing program after the stewing program is interrupted, and cannot fully consider the impact of the interruption on the stewing, the stewing method proposed by the present invention can make targeted compensation according to the interruption situation, and better ensure the stewing quality.

[0044] The present invention provides a water supply device, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the water supply device 1 includes a housing 10, a first water tank 20 and a brewing component 50. A circuit component is disposed inside the housing 10, and the circuit component can be electrically connected to an external power source. Moreover, the first water tank 20 is also disposed inside the housing 10, and the first water tank 20 is used to store filtered pure water. At the same time, the brewing component 50 includes a brewing pot 51 and a support seat 52, the support seat 52 is disposed on the housing 10, the brewing pot 51 is detachably disposed on the support seat 52, and a heating component 511 is disposed inside the brewing pot 51. When the brewing pot 51 is disposed on the support seat 52, the water storage chamber of the brewing pot 51 is communicated with the first water tank 20, and the heating component 511 is electrically connected to the circuit component through the support seat 52.

[0045] Specifically, by arranging the first water tank 20 inside the housing 10, the first water tank 20 can store filtered pure water. At the same time, the support base 52 of the brewing component 50 is arranged on the housing 10, and when the brewing pot 51 is arranged on the support base 52, the water storage cavity of the brewing pot 51 is connected with the first water tank 20, so that the brewing pot 51 can obtain a large amount of pure water for brewing. At the same time, by limiting the circuit component to be arranged inside the housing 10, and the heating component 511 inside the brewing pot 51 can be electrically connected to the circuit component through the support base 52, so that the heating component 511 can work, so as to ensure that the pure water in the brewing pot 51 can reach the preset temperature and meet the water temperature required for brewing, which helps to solve the problem that the existing water purification equipment cannot meet the water volume and water temperature required for brewing.

[0046] It should be understood that, in this embodiment, the water supply device 1 further includes a filter assembly 30, a second water tank 12, a water receiving box 70 and a brewing assembly 50. The housing 10 defines a receiving cavity, in which several internal components such as the second water tank 12, the filter assembly 30, and a water pump are installed.

[0047] like Figure 2 As shown, the second water tank 12 is arranged inside the accommodating cavity, and the second water tank 12 is mainly used to provide raw water for the water system of the water supply device 1. Moreover, the second water tank 12 can be connected to an external tap water inlet pipe to replenish raw water into the second water tank 12, and can also be used as an independent water tank, thereby getting rid of the constraints of the water pipe.

[0048] In this embodiment, the filter assembly 30 may be provided with a plurality of filter elements, which are connected by waterways, or only one reverse osmosis filter element may be provided. Preferably, a pre-filter element is provided upstream of the reverse osmosis filter element, and the type of the pre-filter element may be PP in different forms, activated carbon in different forms, ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and a composite filter element of the above materials, etc. A post-filter element may also be provided downstream of the reverse osmosis filter element, and the type of the post-filter element may be activated carbon in different forms. Of course, the post-filter element and the pre-filter element may be two independent filter elements, or may be a composite filter element. If the post-filter element and the pre-filter element are a composite filter element, the composite filter element has the filtering functions of the pre-filter element and the post-filter element at the same time. The composite filter element has two non-interfering flow paths inside. One flow path is used for coarse filtration, which is equivalent to the pre-filter element. The raw water enters the reverse osmosis filter element after coarse filtration in this flow path; the other flow path is used for re-filtration, which is equivalent to the post-filter element. The pure water filtered by the reverse osmosis filter element is filtered again from this flow path and finally flows out from the water outlet of the composite filter element.

[0049] In addition, a water pump is connected between the second water tank 12 and the filter assembly 30. The raw water in the second water tank 12 flows through the filter assembly 30 under the action of the water pump and finally flows into the first water tank 20 to form pure water to meet the pure water needs of users.

[0050] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first water tank 20 is disposed inside the accommodating cavity, and the water inlet of the first water tank 20 is connected to the filter assembly 30 to receive the pure water output by the filter assembly 30 .

[0051] In this embodiment, the support seat 52 is disposed on the front panel 11 and is located outside the box body. Specifically, along the first direction, the support seat 52 and the first water tank 20 are respectively located on opposite sides of the front panel 11, and the first direction intersects with the front panel 11. Preferably, the first direction is arranged perpendicular to the front panel 11. At this time, the brewing pot 51 can be detachably disposed on the support seat 52, and when the brewing pot 51 is disposed on the support seat 52, the water storage cavity of the brewing pot 51 can be communicated with the first water tank 20, and the heating component 511 in the brewing pot 51 is electrically connected to the circuit component, so that the brewing pot 51 can quickly obtain a large amount of pure water in the first water tank 20 and heat the pure water to meet the brewing needs of the user.

[0052] A water receiving box 70 is arranged directly below the support base 52, and a water storage cup 41 of the water storage assembly 40 is arranged between the water receiving box 70 and the support base 52, that is, the water receiving box 70, the water storage cup 41, the support base 52 and the brewing pot 51 are arranged in sequence in the vertical direction upward. Among them, the water storage cup 41 can be connected to the first water tank 20, thereby increasing the storage capacity of pure water, which helps to further ensure the pure water demand of the brewing pot 51.

[0053] It should be noted that the water supply device 1 also has an instant heating component 60 connected to the first water tank 20, the instant heating component 60 is installed on the front panel 11, and in the horizontal direction, the output nozzle of the instant heating component 60 is spaced apart from the brewing pot 51. Such a configuration helps to enrich the use functions of the water supply device 1. While the brewing pot 51 obtains a large amount of pure water, it can also supply instantly heated pure water, which helps to improve the use effect of the water supply device 1. In addition, it also helps to ensure the aesthetics of the water supply device 1.

[0054] Furthermore, a first coupler (not shown in the figure) is provided on the support seat 52, and the first coupler (not shown in the figure) is electrically connected to the circuit assembly. A second coupler is provided at the bottom of the brewing pot 51, and the second coupler is detachably coupled to the first coupler, and the second coupler is electrically connected to the heating assembly 511 and the control panel, respectively. Specifically, by providing the second coupler to cooperate with the first coupler, the electrical connection between the brewing pot 51 and the support seat 52 can be achieved, thereby ensuring the connection between the heating assembly 511 and the control panel and the circuit assembly in the box. At the same time, the use of the second coupler and the first coupler to cooperate with each other can also help to achieve the positioning and installation of the brewing pot 51 on the support seat 52, thereby improving the cooperation effect between the brewing pot 51 and the support seat 52 and ensuring the effective implementation of the electrical connection.

[0055] Furthermore, the first coupler is provided with a first pipeline (not shown in the figure), which is connected to the first water tank 20. The second coupler is provided with a one-way valve (not shown in the figure) connected to the water storage chamber, and the one-way valve is configured to conduct one-way from the first pipeline to the water storage chamber when the brewing pot 51 is set on the support seat 52.

[0056] Specifically, by providing a first pipeline in the first coupler and a one-way valve in the second coupler, when the second coupler is connected to the first coupler, the first pipeline is connected to the one-way valve, so that the water storage chamber of the brewing pot 51 can be connected to the first water tank 20 through the one-way valve and the first pipeline, so that a large amount of pure water can be taken. At this time, the pure water in the first water tank 20 can flow to the water storage chamber of the brewing pot through the first pipeline and the one-way valve in sequence, and the flow direction of the one-way valve is from the first water tank 20 to the water storage chamber. When the brewing pot 51 is taken out, the pure water in the water storage chamber will not flow back out of the one-way valve, so that the water in the water storage chamber will not leak out. At the same time, with the heating component 511 inside the brewing pot 51, the pure water in the brewing pot can be heated to the temperature required by the user.

[0057] According to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, a stewing method for a water supply device is proposed, and the stewing method comprises the following steps:

[0058] Step S101: obtaining the stewing mode of the brewing pot;

[0059] Step S102: Obtaining the interruption duration from the interruption time of the stewing interruption of the brewing pot to the resumption time of the stewing resumption;

[0060] Step S103: determining a compensatory stewing program corresponding to the stewing mode according to the interruption duration being less than the first preset duration;

[0061] Step S104: Control the brewing pot to execute a compensating stewing program at the self-recovery time;

[0062] Step S105: According to the interruption duration being greater than or equal to the first preset duration, controlling the brewing pot to exit the stewing mode.

[0063] In step S101: obtaining the stewing mode of the brewing pot is intended to determine the stewing mode currently being run by the brewing pot. Different stewing modes may have different parameter settings such as temperature and time. Obtaining the stewing mode is the basis for subsequent targeted processing.

[0064] In step S102, the interruption duration from the interruption time of the brewing interruption to the resumption time of the stewing resumption is obtained. When the stewing process of the brewing pot is interrupted, the time when the interruption occurs is recorded. When the stewing is resumed, the resumption time is recorded again. The interruption duration is obtained by calculating the time difference between the interruption time and the resumption time.

[0065] It should be noted that when the user needs the instant heating component to output boiling water and heat it, the water supply device will suspend the stewing program of the brewing kettle. When the user completes the water extraction of the instant heating component, the stewing program of the brewing kettle will resume.

[0066] Alternatively, when the brewing pot is extracted, the stewing program of the brewing pot will also be interrupted, and when the brewing pot is placed back on the supporting base, the stewing program of the brewing pot will be resumed.

[0067] In step S103, if the interruption time is less than the first preset time, it means that the interruption time is relatively short. At this time, the system will determine a corresponding compensation stewing program according to the current stewing mode. The compensation stewing program includes measures such as adjusting the temperature and extending the stewing time to compensate for the impact of the interruption and ensure the stewing quality as much as possible.

[0068] In step S104, after the compensation stewing program is determined, the brewing pot is controlled to execute the compensation stewing program from the recovery moment, so that the brewing pot can be restored to a normal stewing state as soon as possible after the interruption, and the stewing quality can be improved through compensation measures.

[0069] In step S105, if the interruption time is greater than or equal to the first preset time, it means that the interruption time is long, which may have a significant impact on the stewing quality and is difficult to recover through the compensation procedure. At this time, the control device controls the brewing pot to exit the stewing mode to avoid continuing the stewing process that may not guarantee the quality.

[0070] Compared with the existing solutions, the stewing method proposed by the present invention can effectively compensate for the impact of the interruption by determining and executing a compensatory stewing program when the interruption time is short, making the stewing process more stable, thereby improving the stewing quality. In addition, when the interruption time is long, the stewing mode is exited, avoiding unnecessary waste of resources and quality risks.

[0071] It should be noted that the first preset time is greater than zero, and the specific value of the first preset time needs to be determined according to the size and volume of the brewing pot. For example, for a brewing pot with a minimum water volume of 200mL and a maximum water volume of 800mL, it is necessary to first determine the temperature change of the brewing pot after standing for 2 minutes under different water volumes and different ambient temperatures. Therefore, for the commonly used ambient temperature ranges, the brewing pot is used to perform a test after boiling and standing for 2 minutes, and the results are shown in Table 1 below.

[0072] It can be seen from Table 1 above that after the brewing pot boils (when the temperature difference with the ambient temperature is the largest), the maximum temperature drop is about 4° when it is left standing for 2 minutes. Under normal circumstances, the temperature drop is basically within 2°. Therefore, when the stewing program of the brewing pot is restored, the temperature needs to be quickly increased to ensure the stewing quality.

[0073] Table 1 - Temperature drop of different amounts of liquid in a brewing pot at different ambient temperatures after boiling

[0074]

[0075] Therefore, for a brewing pot with a minimum water filling volume of 200 mL and a maximum water filling volume of 800 mL, the first preset time is set to 2 minutes.

[0076] For other brewing pots with different volumes, the first preset time length may also be adjusted according to specific cooling conditions.

[0077] In some embodiments, Figure 5 As shown, the method for determining the compensating stewing program corresponding to the stewing mode comprises the following steps:

[0078] Step S201: determining the execution stage of the stewing mode of the brewing pot at the interruption time;

[0079] Step S202: acquiring a compensation stewing program corresponding to the execution stage according to the execution stage.

[0080] The execution stage of the stewing mode includes at least one of a preheating stage, a heating stage, a boiling stage and a heat preservation stage.

[0081] In step S201, when the brewing of the brewing kettle is interrupted, it is necessary to determine the specific execution stage of the stewing mode that the brewing kettle is in at this time. Because different stewing modes usually include multiple execution stages, such as preheating stage, heating stage, boiling stage and heat preservation stage, etc. By accurately judging the interruption time, it is possible to clearly know which specific execution stage the brewing kettle is in before the interruption, providing a basis for the subsequent determination of the compensation stewing program.

[0082] In step S202, after determining the execution stage of the brewing pot at the time of the interruption, the corresponding compensation stewing program is obtained according to the execution stage. Different execution stages have different effects on stewing, so targeted compensation measures are required. For example, if the interruption occurs in the preheating stage, it may be necessary to extend the preheating time or increase the preheating temperature; if the interruption occurs in the boiling stage, it may be necessary to extend the boiling time or adjust the boiling temperature, etc.

[0083] In this embodiment, by determining the compensatory stewing program for each execution stage, the adverse effects caused by the interruption can be compensated more accurately, and the stewing quality can be guaranteed to the greatest extent. And targeted adjustments are made according to the characteristics of different stages so that the brewing pot can return to the normal stewing state as soon as possible after the interruption, thereby reducing unnecessary time waste and improving stewing efficiency.

[0084] It should be emphasized that the existing solution resumes the execution of the original remaining stewing program after the stewing is interrupted, without taking into account the differences in different execution stages, and has poor adaptability. The stewing method proposed in the present invention determines the compensatory stewing program according to the execution stage, which can better adapt to various interruption situations and improve the adaptability of the water supply equipment. For different types of stewing modes and different usage scenarios, the stewing method proposed in the present invention can provide more reasonable compensation measures to meet the diverse needs of users. Each execution stage has corresponding compensation measures, which can ensure that the brewing kettle can return to the optimal stewing state as soon as possible after the interruption, thereby ensuring the consistency of the stewing quality.

[0085] In some embodiments, when the execution stage is the preheating stage at the interruption moment, the compensatory stewing program corresponding to the preheating stage includes the following steps: the preheating time before the interruption moment is reset to zero, and the brewing pot is controlled to re-execute the program of the preheating stage. In this embodiment, when the brewing pot is interrupted during the stewing process, and it is determined at the interruption moment that the brewing pot is in the preheating stage, the compensatory stewing program adopted is to reset the preheating time that has been performed before the interruption moment. Then the brewing pot is controlled to re-execute the program of the preheating stage, that is, to re-preheat from the initial state, and to perform the preheating operation again according to the preset preheating parameters (such as a specific temperature rise rate, target temperature, etc.). Re-preheating after the preheating stage is interrupted can ensure that the brewing pot reaches the best starting state to enter the subsequent stage. If it is not re-preheated, the previously interrupted preheating process may be incomplete, resulting in the subsequent heating, boiling and other stages being affected, and the quality of stewing cannot be guaranteed. Re-preheating can enable the brewing pot to reach a stable and suitable initial state before entering the subsequent stage, laying a good foundation for the entire stewing process.

[0086] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, at the interruption moment, when the execution phase is the heating phase, the compensatory stewing program corresponding to the heating phase includes the following steps:

[0087] Step S301: Determine whether the interruption duration is less than or equal to a second preset duration, if yes, execute step S302, if no, execute step S303;

[0088] Step S302: Control the duration of the heating phase to increase the first time period;

[0089] Step S303: Control the brewing pot to re-execute the preheating phase program.

[0090] The duration of the first time period is equal to the interruption duration, and the second preset duration is shorter than the first preset duration.

[0091] In step S301, when it is determined that the brewing pot is in the heating stage at the interruption time, it is first determined whether the interruption duration is less than or equal to the second preset duration. This determination is to determine the degree of impact of the interruption so as to adopt different compensatory stewing procedures. If the interruption duration is less than or equal to the second preset duration, it means that the interruption time is relatively short and may have little impact on the heating stage. If the interruption duration is greater than the second preset duration, it means that the interruption time is long and may have a greater impact on the heating stage.

[0092] In step S302, if the interruption duration is less than or equal to the second preset duration, the duration of the first time period is equal to the interruption duration, that is, the duration of the heating stage is extended by the same length as the interruption time. The purpose is to make up for the heating time lost by the interruption, ensure that the brewing pot can reach the expected temperature in the heating stage, and thus prepare for the subsequent boiling stage.

[0093] In step S303, if the interruption time is longer than the second preset time, it indicates that the interruption time is long, and the temperature rise phase is greatly affected. Simply extending the temperature rise time may not guarantee the stewing quality. Therefore, the brewing pot is controlled to re-execute the preheating phase program. The adverse effects caused by the interruption are fundamentally eliminated, ensuring that the brewing pot is in a stable state before entering the temperature rise phase.

[0094] Therefore, for a brewing pot with a minimum water filling volume of 200 mL and a maximum water filling volume of 800 mL, the second preset time length is set to 1 minute.

[0095] For other brewing pots with different volumes, the first preset time can also be adjusted according to the specific cooling conditions, and the second preset time needs to be set greater than zero and less than the first preset time.

[0096] In some embodiments, the execution process of the heating stage of the stewing mode includes a boiling point detection step, which mainly detects whether the liquid in the brewing pot has reached the boiling point, and once the liquid has reached the boiling point, the cumulative time after the liquid in the brewing pot has reached the boiling point is calculated. When an interruption occurs and the interruption duration is less than or equal to the second preset duration, the cumulative duration is reset to zero, that is, any cumulative time after the liquid reaches the boiling point before the interruption is not counted, and the cumulative duration is reset to zero, and then the boiling point detection step is re-executed, that is, whether the liquid in the brewing pot has reached the boiling point is detected again, and the cumulative time is restarted after the liquid reaches the boiling point.

[0097] It should be noted that, in the heating stage, boiling point detection is a key step, which is related to the temperature control and time arrangement of the subsequent stewing process. When the interruption time is short, the accumulated time is reset to zero and the boiling point detection step is re-executed to ensure the accuracy of the accumulated time.

[0098] For example, in some stewing modes, the temperature or time parameters need to be adjusted based on the accumulated time after the liquid reaches the boiling point. If the accumulated time before the interruption is inaccurate, the temperature may be too high or too low, affecting the stewing effect of the ingredients. Re-performing the boiling point detection step can avoid this situation, ensure the accuracy of the accumulated time, and thus improve the stewing quality.

[0099] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, at the interruption time, when the execution stage is the boiling stage, the compensatory stewing program corresponding to the boiling stage includes the following steps:

[0100] Step S401: obtaining a first temperature of the liquid in the brewing pot at the interruption moment and a second temperature of the liquid in the brewing pot at the resumption moment;

[0101] Step S402: obtaining a temperature difference between the first temperature and the second temperature;

[0102] Step S403: adjusting the heating power of the brewing pot according to the temperature difference, and controlling the duration of the boiling stage to increase the second time period.

[0103] The duration of the second time period is equal to the interruption duration, and the heating power of the brewing pot is positively correlated with the temperature difference.

[0104] In step S401, at the interruption time, the temperature of the liquid in the brewing pot is recorded as the first temperature. When the stewing is resumed, the temperature of the liquid in the brewing pot is recorded again, that is, the second temperature. By obtaining the temperatures at these two times, the change of the liquid temperature during the interruption period, that is, the degree of temperature drop of the liquid in the brewing pot, can be understood.

[0105] In step S402, the difference between the first temperature and the second temperature is calculated to obtain the temperature difference. The temperature difference reflects the degree of influence of the interruption on the liquid temperature. If the temperature difference is large, it means that the liquid temperature drops more during the interruption; if the temperature difference is small, it means that the liquid temperature is relatively stable.

[0106] In step S403, the heating power of the brewing pot is adjusted according to the size of the temperature difference. Generally, the greater the temperature difference, the higher the heating power, so as to increase the liquid temperature more quickly. At the same time, the duration of the boiling stage is controlled to increase the second time period, and the duration of the second time period is equal to the interruption duration, the purpose of which is to make up for the boiling time lost due to the interruption and ensure that the ingredients can be fully stewed during the boiling stage.

[0107] In this embodiment, by obtaining the temperature at the interruption time and the resumption time and calculating the temperature difference, the impact of the interruption on the liquid temperature can be accurately understood. By adjusting the heating power according to the temperature difference, the temperature change can be compensated in a targeted manner, so that the liquid can be restored to a suitable boiling temperature as soon as possible.

[0108] The compensation stewing program of this embodiment can adapt to various interruption situations of different degrees. Regardless of the temperature difference and the duration of the interruption, effective compensation can be performed by adjusting the heating power and increasing the boiling time, so that the brewing pot can maintain good stewing performance in different usage environments and meet the diverse needs of users. The compensation program of this embodiment can be adjusted according to the specific situation to ensure that the stewing quality of the brewing pot can be guaranteed as much as possible in various interruption situations.

[0109] In some embodiments, Figure 8 As shown, the steps of adjusting the heating power of the brewing pot according to the temperature difference include:

[0110] Step S501: according to the temperature difference being greater than the first preset temperature difference and less than the second preset temperature difference, the heating power of the brewing pot is increased to a first preset power value;

[0111] Step S502: according to the temperature difference being greater than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, the heating power of the brewing pot is increased to a second preset power value.

[0112] Among them, the first preset temperature difference is greater than zero and less than the second preset temperature difference, and the first preset power value is greater than zero and less than the second preset power value.

[0113] In step S501, when the calculated temperature difference is greater than the first preset temperature difference and less than the second preset temperature difference, it means that the temperature change of the liquid before and after the interruption is relatively small. In this case, the heating power of the brewing pot is increased by the first preset power value. This first preset power value is a relatively small power increase.

[0114] In step S502, if the temperature difference is greater than or equal to the second preset temperature difference, it indicates that the temperature of the liquid before and after the interruption changes greatly. At this time, the heating power of the brewing pot is increased by the second preset power value. The second preset power value is greater than the first preset power value because the temperature difference is large and a larger power increase is required to quickly increase the liquid temperature so as to restore it to a suitable boiling temperature as soon as possible.

[0115] For a brewing pot with a minimum water supply of 200 mL and a maximum water supply of 800 mL, the first preset temperature difference is set to 2°C, and the second preset temperature difference is set to 4°C. The first preset power value is set to 100W, and the second preset power is set to 200W. That is, when the temperature difference is greater than 2°C and less than 4°C, the heating power of the brewing pot is controlled to increase by 100W, and when the temperature difference is greater than or equal to 4°C, the heating power of the brewing pot is controlled to increase by 200W.

[0116] In this embodiment, the heating power is adjusted according to different temperature difference ranges to achieve precise regulation. When the temperature difference is small, a smaller power increase is used to avoid overheating; when the temperature difference is large, a larger power increase is used to quickly heat up. This precise regulation can better adapt to different degrees of temperature changes, improve heating efficiency, and also avoid affecting the stewing quality due to excessive or low power.

[0117] In addition, increasing the heating power in stages can avoid unnecessary energy waste. When the temperature difference is small, a smaller power increase can reduce energy consumption while meeting the temperature recovery requirements. When the temperature difference is large, although a larger power value is increased, it is also adjusted according to actual needs, avoiding energy waste caused by continuous high-power heating.

[0118] In some embodiments, the compensatory stewing program corresponding to the boiling stage includes a rapid heating stage and a subsequent boiling stage.

[0119] In the rapid heating stage, the step of adjusting the heating power of the brewing pot according to the temperature difference is performed. When the temperature of the liquid in the brewing pot rises to the first temperature, the rapid heating stage is terminated and the boiling stage is performed. In the rapid heating stage, the heating power may be increased to the first preset power value or the second preset power value according to the size of the temperature difference. The purpose is to quickly increase the temperature of the liquid to compensate for the drop in the temperature of the liquid during the interruption. The temperature of the liquid in the brewing pot is continuously monitored. When the temperature of the liquid rises to the first temperature at the moment of interruption, it indicates that the temperature of the liquid has returned to the state before the interruption, and the rapid heating stage is terminated at this time.

[0120] During the boiling stage, the heating power of the brewing pot is restored to the heating power at the time of interruption, that is, the power level used in the boiling stage before the interruption. This ensures that the subsequent boiling process runs at a stable power. At the same time, the boiling time is increased by a second time period, the duration of which is equal to the interruption time, to make up for the boiling time lost due to the interruption and ensure that the ingredients can be fully stewed.

[0121] Understandably, in the rapid heating stage, the heating power is adjusted according to the temperature difference, which can quickly increase the liquid temperature and restore it to the appropriate boiling temperature in a shorter time, so that the liquid can be restored to the state before the interruption as soon as possible, improve the stewing efficiency, and help ensure the continuity and quality of the boiling. In the subsequent boiling stage, the heating power is restored to the level at the time of interruption to ensure the stability of the boiling process. The adverse effects on the ingredients caused by power fluctuations are avoided, so that the ingredients can continue to be stewed in a relatively stable temperature environment.

[0122] The compensatory stewing program of this embodiment can adapt to different degrees of interruption and temperature changes. Whether the temperature difference is small or large, the stewing process can be effectively restored through the combination of the rapid heating stage and the subsequent boiling stage, so that the brewing pot can maintain good stewing performance in various complex usage environments.

[0123] In some embodiments, at the moment of interruption, when the execution stage is the insulation stage, the compensating stewing program corresponding to the insulation stage includes the following steps: continue to execute the program of the insulation stage. In this embodiment, when the brewing pot is in the insulation stage during the stewing process, an interruption occurs, and the corresponding compensating stewing program is to continue to execute the program of the insulation stage. That is, when it is restored after the interruption, no additional special processing is performed, and the insulation state before the interruption is directly continued to continue the insulation operation. In the insulation stage, the brewing pot usually maintains the liquid temperature within a relatively stable range to ensure that the stewed food or drink can be stored at a suitable temperature while avoiding excessive heating or cooling. Continuing to execute the insulation program after the insulation stage is interrupted can ensure that the liquid temperature remains in a relatively stable state. For some temperature-sensitive ingredients or drinks, it can prevent temperature changes from having an adverse effect on their quality. For example, for stewed soups or tea drinks, if the temperature fluctuates greatly, it may affect the taste and nutritional content. Continuing to execute the insulation program can keep the temperature within a suitable range to ensure the quality of food or drinks. The main purpose of the insulation stage is to maintain the temperature. Continuing the insulation without additional processing after interruption can minimize temperature changes and provide users with a stable usage experience.
