[0025] Among them, the heating wire is made of high temperature resistant and antioxidant material, which can ensure the long-term stability of the heating element. The sensors include temperature sensors, humidity sensors and air pressure sensors. The controller automatically adjusts the output power according to the set temperature range and sensor feedback. The power module provides power for the heating and temperature control hardware. The display screen is used to display temperature, power and setting information, thereby realizing the integration of heating and temperature control of electronic cigarettes.

[0026] Among them, the energy consumption optimization mechanism includes power regulation, battery management, equipment standby, energy consumption monitoring and energy-saving mode; the environmental sensing mechanism includes temperature monitoring, humidity monitoring and air pressure monitoring; the safety protection mechanism includes overheating protection, battery protection and user safety prompts. The energy consumption optimization mechanism greatly reduces the energy consumption of electronic cigarettes and increases the use time of electronic cigarettes. The environmental sensing mechanism can sense the external environment, thereby improving the use effect of electronic cigarettes, and the safety protection mechanism can protect electronic cigarettes and improve the safety of electronic cigarette use.

[0027] Among them, real-time monitoring and adjustment include power adjustment using PID control algorithm. PID control algorithm is a commonly used feedback controller, which adjusts the heating power according to the set target temperature and the error between the actual temperature. The heating power of the heating wire is controlled by adjusting the duty cycle of the PWM signal of the heating element. The temperature feedback mechanism collects data through the temperature sensor. The temperature sensor converts the sensed temperature changes into electrical signals. The system will continuously collect temperature data and adjust the duty cycle of the PWM signal in real time according to the feedback to achieve fine control of the temperature of the heating wire, thereby achieving precise adjustment of the temperature of the e-cigarette.

[0028] Among them, battery management includes battery status detection and battery protection, device standby includes automatic standby and low-power standby mode, energy consumption monitoring includes energy consumption data recording and statistics and reporting, battery status monitoring, real-time monitoring of battery voltage, current and power status to ensure that the battery is within a safe working range, battery protection is to automatically reduce power or shut down the device when it detects that the battery power is below a certain threshold to prevent excessive discharge of the battery, automatic standby means that when the device does not detect user operation or smoking action within a certain period of time, it automatically enters standby state to save energy, low-power standby mode is in standby mode, shuts down unnecessary functions, retains only basic monitoring and communication functions, and reduces overall power consumption.

[0029] Among them, power regulation adopts real-time power control and intelligent PWM control. The power of the heating wire is adjusted through the PWM signal to achieve fine power control of the heating wire and improve energy efficiency. The energy-saving modes include adaptive energy-saving mode, user-defined energy-saving settings and intelligent energy-saving algorithms. The adaptive energy-saving mode automatically adjusts the working state of the equipment according to the user's usage habits and environmental conditions to achieve energy-saving effects. The user-defined energy-saving settings allow users to customize energy-saving modes according to their own needs, such as reducing heating power, adjusting standby time, etc. The intelligent energy-saving algorithm adopts advanced energy-saving algorithms, such as predictive control algorithms, to adjust the power in advance according to the temperature change trend of the heating wire to reduce energy waste.

[0030] Among them, temperature detection uses a temperature sensor to monitor the temperature of the environment where the electronic cigarette is located. The temperature sensor uses a sensor model DS18B20. The temperature sensor converts temperature information into an electrical signal and converts it into a digital signal through ADC for processing by the microprocessor. It adjusts the temperature setting of the heating wire to adapt to different ambient temperatures, ensures the comfort of the smoking experience, and prevents equipment damage or performance degradation under extreme temperature conditions.

[0031] Among them, the humidity sensor is used to monitor the relative humidity of the environment. The humidity sensor is a capacitive humidity sensor. The humidity sensor outputs a signal proportional to the humidity. After processing, it is analyzed by the microprocessor. The temperature or power output of the heating wire is adjusted according to the ambient humidity to avoid smoke condensation or taste degradation caused by excessive humidity. In a high humidity environment, the temperature of the heating wire may need to be lowered to reduce the impact of moisture on the smoking experience. The air pressure sensor is used to monitor changes in ambient air pressure. The air pressure sensor is a MEMS air pressure sensor. The signal output by the air pressure sensor is amplified and filtered, and then read and calculated by the microprocessor to adjust the working parameters of the heating wire to adapt to the altitude and air pressure changes in the area to ensure the consistency of the smoking experience.

[0032] Among them, the overheating protection sets a temperature threshold. When the temperature reaches different levels, different protection measures are taken, such as reducing power, suspending heating or completely cutting off power. The overheating protection is implemented through temperature sensors and control algorithms. The temperature of the heating wire is monitored to detect whether there is overheating. When the detected temperature exceeds the preset safety threshold, the control algorithm will immediately reduce or cut off the heating power. The battery protection adopts voltage and current detection, and monitors the voltage and current of the battery in real time to detect the battery status. The battery protection is also equipped with a battery protection circuit. The integrated battery protection circuit is to prevent overcharging, over-discharging, overcurrent and short circuit. The battery protection circuit also includes thermal protection. When the battery temperature is too high, the battery output will be automatically disconnected.

[0033] Among them, user safety prompts include display screens and sound prompts. User safety prompts provide a self-check process and give corresponding safety prompts when problems are found. Users can view detailed device status and safety information through the application or device interface. User safety prompts support connection via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. The device can communicate with the user's smartphone application to provide remote monitoring and fault diagnosis support. When the device is in an overheated state, low on battery or other safety issues, the user will be notified by displaying a warning message on the screen or a sound prompt.

[0034] Working principle: In the process of heating the heating wire, the heating power is monitored and adjusted in real time through the temperature sensor to avoid unnecessary energy waste, and the duty cycle of the PWM signal is finely controlled to achieve more efficient power management. At the same time, the battery status is monitored in real time to prevent overcharging and over-discharging, optimize the battery life cycle, and automatically enter the low-power standby mode when the electronic cigarette is not in use. The energy consumption data of the electronic cigarette helps users understand and optimize the usage habits, and automatically adjusts the working state according to the user's habits and environment. At the same time, the user is allowed to adjust the energy-saving parameters according to their needs, and uses advanced technologies such as predictive control algorithms to adjust the power in advance to reduce energy waste. The electronic cigarette heating temperature control system and its control method optimize the energy consumption of the electronic cigarette through the energy consumption optimization mechanism, which greatly reduces the battery energy consumption of the electronic cigarette, allowing the electronic cigarette to be used for a longer time and increasing the usage time of the electronic cigarette.

[0035] The temperature of the heating wire is monitored by a temperature sensor. When the temperature exceeds the preset safety threshold, the controller will automatically reduce the power output or completely cut off the power to prevent the device from overheating. At the same time, the battery protection circuit is integrated in the power module to prevent the battery from overcharging, over-discharging, overcurrent and short circuit, ensuring that the battery is within a safe operating range. The display screen and sound prompt system are used to provide users with device status information, including power, temperature, humidity, air pressure, etc., and provide safety prompts when potential problems are found, so that the electronic cigarette heating temperature control system provides users with a safer and more reliable use experience.
