[0039] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0040] With the rapid development of smart home technology, people's requirements for quality of life are getting higher and higher. The emergence of smart meal delivery cabinets solves people's demand for healthy and convenient diets, while smart home systems provide a comfortable living environment.

[0041] However, smart meal delivery cabinets and smart home systems often operate independently of each other and lack an effective linkage mechanism. They are unable to automatically adjust the home environment according to the dietary situation. Users need to manually adjust the home environment, which increases the complexity and inconvenience of operation and results in a poor user experience.

[0042] One of the core concepts of the embodiments of the present invention is that after determining that a user has taken food from a food cabinet, the dining environment required by the user is determined, and control instructions for home appliances are determined based on the dining environment, and then the control instructions are sent to the home appliances, thereby realizing linkage between the food cabinet and the home appliances. After the user has taken food from the food cabinet, the home appliances can be controlled without manual operation, thereby improving operational convenience and user experience. In addition, control instructions are sent to the home appliances to enable the home appliances to execute the control instructions, thereby providing a good dining environment for the user and improving the user's dining experience.

[0043] Reference Figure 1 , shows a flowchart of a method for linking a dining cabinet with household appliances according to an embodiment of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0044] Step 101, after determining that the user takes food from the dining cabinet, determine the dining environment required by the user.

[0045] Specifically, the smart food cabinet is equipped with sensors. When a user takes food from the smart food cabinet, the sensors of the smart food cabinet can immediately sense the user's behavior of taking food, and trigger a signal to the server through the wireless communication module. The trigger signal is used to notify the server that the user has taken food. After receiving the trigger signal, the server can determine that the user has taken food from the smart food cabinet, and then determine the dining environment required by the user. The dining environment required by the user is the dining environment at home that the user needs when he takes food from the smart food cabinet and returns home to eat. The dining environment can include home environment parameters such as lighting, temperature, humidity, and background music.

[0046] Exemplarily, the sensor may be a photoelectric sensor and / or an infrared sensor. The photoelectric sensor and the infrared sensor can quickly and reliably sense the user's meal-taking behavior and send a trigger signal to the server through a wireless communication module. The photoelectric sensor may be installed at the front end or side of the storage compartment of the meal cabinet to form a light beam channel. When the meal box is placed in the storage compartment, the light beam channel is blocked, and the sensor detects the interruption of the light beam. When the user takes the meal box away, the light beam channel is restored, and the sensor detects the restoration of the light beam. The sensor sends this change to the server through the wireless communication module. The infrared sensor may be installed at the top or side of the storage compartment to cover the entire storage compartment area. When the meal box is placed in the storage compartment, the infrared sensor detects the presence of an object. When the user takes the meal box away, the infrared sensor detects the disappearance of the object. The sensor sends this change to the server through the wireless communication module. Of course, the specific type of the sensor can be set according to actual needs in actual applications, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0047] Among them, the wireless communication module can adopt low-power, wide-coverage wireless communication technologies such as Zigbee and Wi-Fi to ensure the stability and real-time performance of data transmission. Of course, the implementation method of the wireless communication module can be set according to actual needs in actual applications, and the embodiments of the present invention do not limit this.

[0048] Step 102, according to the dining environment, determine the required home appliances and generate corresponding control instructions.

[0049] Specifically, after determining the dining environment, the required home appliances are determined according to the dining environment and corresponding control instructions are generated. Exemplarily, the dining environment includes lighting, sound, temperature, air quality and other environments. Lighting includes natural light and artificial lighting. The home appliance for adjusting natural light may be smart curtains. By controlling the opening and closing of smart curtains, natural light can be adjusted. The home appliance corresponding to artificial lighting may be smart lights. By controlling and adjusting the brightness and color of smart lights, different dining atmospheres can be created. The home appliance for controlling sound may be a speaker. By controlling the speaker, different types of background music can be played. The home appliance corresponding to temperature may be a temperature control device such as an air conditioner. Controlling the temperature control device can adjust the indoor temperature. The home appliance corresponding to air quality may be an air purifier. By controlling the air purifier, the indoor air quality can be controlled.

[0050] Step 103: Send the control instruction to the home appliance so that the home appliance executes the control instruction.

[0051] Specifically, after the control instruction is generated, the control instruction is sent to the corresponding home appliance through the wireless communication module, so that the home appliance executes the control instruction, thereby creating a dining environment required by the user and improving the user's dining experience. Among them, the wireless communication module can adopt a common communication protocol and interface standard to ensure the compatibility and interoperability between the smart dining cabinet and smart home appliances of different brands and models.

[0052] The method for linking a dining cabinet with household appliances in an embodiment of the present invention determines the dining environment required by the user after determining that the user takes food from the dining cabinet, then determines the required household appliances based on the dining environment and generates corresponding control instructions, and then sends the control instructions to the household appliances so that the household appliances execute the control instructions. By determining the dining environment required by the user and determining the control instructions for the household appliances based on the dining environment after determining that the user takes food from the dining cabinet, and then sending the control instructions to the household appliances, the linkage between the dining cabinet and the household appliances is achieved. After the user takes food from the dining cabinet, the household appliances can be controlled without manual operation, which improves the convenience of operation and user experience. In addition, the control instructions are sent to the household appliances so that the household appliances execute the control instructions, which provides a good dining environment for the user and improves the user's dining experience.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, step 101 may specifically include the following sub-steps:

[0054] Sub-step 11, obtaining the user's dietary information and dining preference information.

[0055] Specifically, the user can select and reserve meals and set meal preference information on the application of the user terminal. For example, the user selects a dinner set meal, including a main dish, side dishes and drinks, and selects the dining atmosphere of "romantic dinner", preferring soft lighting, gentle music, and moderate indoor temperature, and then confirms the order and pays. The user terminal sends the user's meal information and meal preference information to the server through the wireless communication module, and the server receives the user's meal information and meal preference information sent by the user terminal.

[0056] Sub-step 12, determining the dining environment required by the user based on the meal information and the dining preference information.

[0057] Specifically, the meal information is the information of the meal ordered by the user. For example, the user orders a dinner including hot dishes, cold dishes and soup, and chooses to pick up the meal at 7 pm.

[0058] The dining preference information may be the dining atmosphere selected by the user, or may be determined based on the user's historical dining atmosphere data, or may be determined by combining the two. For example, assume that the user has the following historical dining atmosphere data: dining time: the user usually eats around 7 pm; ambient temperature preference: the user likes to eat at a room temperature of 22°C; lighting setting: the user likes to use warm-toned lighting with a brightness of 70% when dining; background music: the user likes to play light music with a volume of 40% when dining.

[0059] Based on the meal information and dining preference information, the dining environment required by the user is determined. For example, for meal time analysis, the user's booked meal pick-up time is 7 pm, and historical data confirms that the user usually eats around 7 pm; based on the user's historical data, the user likes to dine at a room temperature of 22°C, so the temperature of the smart thermostat can be set to 22°C; the user likes to use warm-toned lights with a brightness of 70% when dining, so the color temperature of the smart lights can be set to warm colors (approximately 3000K) and the brightness can be set to 70%; for background music setting, the user likes to play light music while dining with the volume set to 40%, so the playlist of the smart speaker can be set to light music with the volume set to 40%.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present invention, the sending the control instruction to the home device includes:

[0061] When preset conditions are met, the control instruction is sent to the home appliance; the preset conditions include: the user authorizes the use of the home appliance, after the user takes the meal from the food cabinet and a preset delay time has passed, the user's distance from home is less than at least one of preset distance thresholds.

[0062] Specifically, after determining that the user takes food from the food cabinet and generating a control instruction according to the dining environment required by the user, if the preset conditions are met, the control instruction is sent to the home appliance so that the home appliance executes the corresponding control instruction. The preset conditions may include: the user authorizes the use of the home appliance, after the user takes food from the food cabinet and a preset delay time has passed, the user's distance from home is less than at least one of the preset distance thresholds.

[0063] For example, a delayed execution mechanism can be set up to send a control instruction to the home appliance after a delay of a period of time after the user picks up the food. This delay time can be set according to the user's average time to return home, such as 5 minutes or 10 minutes. The control instruction can also be sent to the home appliance immediately after it is generated. After receiving the control instruction, the home appliance executes the control instruction after a preset delay time.

[0064] Geo-fencing technology can be used to detect the user's geographic location. When the user's mobile device enters the geo-fence area of ​​the home, that is, when the user's distance from home is less than a preset distance threshold, a control instruction is sent to the home device or the smart home device is triggered to execute the control instruction.

[0065] After the user picks up the food, the user can be notified via a mobile app or text message to ask whether to immediately execute the operation of the smart home device. The user can trigger the device operation by clicking a confirmation button, thereby sending a control instruction to the home device so that the home device executes the control instruction.

[0066] Through delayed execution, geo-fencing technology or user confirmation, the time difference between the user picking up the meal and the control of the smart home device can be better coordinated, thereby optimizing the user experience and ensuring that the user can enjoy the preset dining environment when they return home.

[0067] It should be noted that, for the sake of simplicity, the method embodiments are described as a series of action combinations, but those skilled in the art should be aware that the embodiments of the present invention are not limited by the order of the actions described, because according to the embodiments of the present invention, certain steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously. Secondly, those skilled in the art should also be aware that the embodiments described in the specification are all preferred embodiments, and the actions involved are not necessarily required by the embodiments of the present invention.

[0068] Reference Figure 2 , showing a schematic diagram of a linkage system of a meal cabinet and household appliances according to an embodiment of the present invention, the system comprising a meal cabinet, household appliances and a server;

[0069] The meal cabinet is used for storing meals of users.

[0070] Specifically, the meal cabinet can be a smart meal delivery cabinet, which is a device that combines the Internet of Things, smart identification, cold chain logistics and other technologies to provide users with convenient, healthy and personalized meal delivery services. Users can choose meals through mobile phone APP or smart terminals, and the delivery cabinet will automatically deliver the corresponding meals according to the user's selection, and keep the appropriate temperature and freshness. The main functions of smart meal delivery cabinets include: intelligent identification and delivery, automatically identifying user identity and order information through RFID, QR code or face recognition technology, and automatically delivering corresponding meals to designated grids according to the order information; temperature control, equipped with an intelligent temperature control system to ensure that meals are stored at a suitable temperature to prevent spoilage, and support multiple temperature modes such as refrigeration, freezing, and room temperature; real-time monitoring, built-in cameras and sensors to monitor the environment and food status in the cabinet in real time, and upload data in real time through the cloud platform for easy management and maintenance; remote management, supporting remote opening and closing of cabinet doors, adjusting temperature, checking inventory and other functions, providing data analysis and report generation, and helping managers optimize operational strategies; user interaction, equipped with a touch screen or voice interaction system for convenient user operation, supporting multiple payment methods, such as scan code payment, card payment, etc.; personalized customization, providing personalized meal choices based on the user's health needs and dietary preferences, and supporting nutrient analysis and health recommendations.

[0071] The server is used to determine the dining environment required by the user after determining that the user takes food from the dining cabinet; determine the required home appliances and generate corresponding control instructions based on the dining environment; and send the control instructions to the home appliances so that the home appliances execute the control instructions.

[0072] Specifically, the server can be Figure 2 The central control unit (cloud) in the linkage system is the core of the linkage system. It is responsible for receiving trigger signals from the smart meal delivery cabinet, verifying user permissions, storing user data, and sending control instructions to smart home devices according to preset rules (user-defined dining environment settings). After the meal cabinet senses the user's meal-taking behavior, it triggers a signal to the central control unit. The trigger signal is used to notify the central control unit that the user has taken the meal. The central control unit determines that the user has taken the meal based on the trigger signal, and then determines the dining environment required by the user. According to the dining environment, it determines the required home equipment and generates corresponding control instructions, and sends control instructions to the home equipment system so that the home equipment executes the control instructions.

[0073] The household device is used to execute the control instruction.

[0074] Specifically, the smart home system may include: smart lighting system, which can adjust the brightness and color of lights to create different dining atmospheres; sound system: supports background music playback, and users can choose different types of music; curtain control system: automatically opens and closes curtains to adjust natural light; temperature control system: automatically adjusts the indoor temperature to ensure a comfortable dining environment; air purification device: provides fresh air to improve dining comfort; other smart (smart TV) controllable devices, smart home devices support multiple communication protocols and interface standards, and support wireless communication. The home equipment system receives the control instructions sent by the central control unit, and sends the control instructions to the corresponding home equipment so that the home equipment executes the control instructions. After receiving the control instructions, the home equipment immediately performs the corresponding operation (such as automatically turning on / adjusting the lights, playing music, switching TV channels, etc.), and sends feedback information to the user (such as the lights have been turned on, the music has been played, etc.) to create a dining atmosphere.

[0075] In the embodiment of the present invention, the server is used to obtain the dietary information and dining preference information of the user; and determine the dining environment required by the user according to the dietary information and the dining preference information.

[0076] Specifically, the user can configure the environment in the application of the user terminal, and can set and adjust the dining atmosphere preferences (such as lighting color, music type, temperature, etc.). The application of the user terminal sends the user's meal information and dining preference information to the central control unit. The central control unit receives the user's meal information and dining preference information sent by the application of the user terminal, and determines the dining environment required by the user based on the meal information and dining preference information.

[0077] If the user does not set a customized dining environment, the smart home devices can be controlled according to the pre-set default dining environment. A set of default dining environment parameters can be preset, including but not limited to the following: lighting settings including brightness, color temperature, color, etc.; temperature settings: the temperature of the air conditioner or heating equipment; background music: the type and volume of music played by the audio system; other equipment: such as the switch status of air purifiers, humidifiers, etc.

[0078] In an embodiment of the present invention, the server is used to send the control instruction to the home appliance when preset conditions are met; the preset conditions include: the user authorizes the use of the home appliance, after the user takes the meal from the food cabinet and a preset delay time has passed, the user's distance from home is less than at least one of a preset distance threshold.

[0079] Specifically, after generating the control instruction, the central control unit can send the control instruction to the home appliance if the preset conditions are met. For example, a delayed execution mechanism can be set to send the control instruction to the home appliance after a delay of a period of time after the user picks up the meal. This delay time can be set according to the average time the user returns home, such as 5 minutes or 10 minutes. The control instruction can also be sent to the home appliance immediately after the control instruction is generated. After the home appliance receives the control instruction, it executes the control instruction after a preset delay time. The user's geographical location can be detected by geo-fencing technology. When the user's mobile device enters the geo-fenced area of ​​the home, that is, when the user's distance from home is less than the preset distance threshold, the control instruction is sent to the home appliance or the smart home device is triggered to execute the control instruction. After the user picks up the meal, the user can be notified through a mobile application or text message to ask whether to execute the operation of the smart home device immediately. The user can trigger the device operation by clicking the confirmation button, thereby sending the control instruction to the home appliance so that the home appliance executes the control instruction.

[0080] It is also possible to send control instructions to home devices immediately after generating them, and when the preset conditions are met, the home devices execute the control instructions. Through delayed execution, geo-fencing technology or user confirmation, the time difference between the user picking up the meal and the smart home device control can be better coordinated, thereby optimizing the user experience and ensuring that the user can enjoy the preset dining environment when returning home.

[0081] In an embodiment of the present invention, the server is further used to determine the type of the meal when the meal is placed in the meal cabinet; and adjust the storage parameters of the meal cabinet according to the type of the meal, the storage parameters including at least one of humidity and temperature.

[0082] Specifically, the server can be a smart meal cabinet system server. For example, a user orders a lunch through an application, including hot dishes, cold dishes and soups, and the meal delivery person puts the ordered meals into different storage compartments of the smart meal cabinet. Each storage compartment corresponds to a different type of meal. The smart meal cabinet identifies the type of meal in each storage compartment and the required storage conditions through a built-in RFID reader or QR code scanner, and then automatically adjusts the temperature and humidity. The smart meal cabinet integrates multiple meal collection methods such as RFID identification, code scanning, and face recognition; built-in high-sensitivity sensors (temperature, humidity, weight, gas sensors) are used to monitor the status of meals, and also include a wireless communication module.

[0083] For example, for hot food storage, the recognition result is: hot food needs to be kept at about 60°C to ensure that the food is warm and palatable. Temperature control device operation: the heating module is started, and the temperature sensor monitors the temperature in the storage compartment in real time; temperature adjustment: when the temperature reaches 60°C, the system automatically maintains the temperature to avoid overheating or cooling; humidity adjustment: for some hot dishes that need to maintain humidity (such as steamed dishes), the humidity control device is started to keep the humidity at about 50% to prevent the food from drying out.

[0084] Cold dish storage, identification results: cold dishes need to be kept at around 4°C to ensure the freshness of the food; temperature control device operation: the refrigeration module is started, and the temperature sensor monitors the temperature in the storage compartment in real time; temperature adjustment: when the temperature reaches 4°C, the system automatically maintains this temperature to avoid overcooling or heating; humidity adjustment: for cold dishes that need to be moisturized (such as salads), the humidity control device is started to keep the humidity at around 70% to prevent food from losing water.

[0085] Soup storage, identification results: the soup needs to be kept at around 65°C to ensure that it is warm; temperature control device operation: the heating module is started, and the temperature sensor monitors the temperature in the storage compartment in real time; temperature adjustment: when the temperature reaches 65°C, the system automatically maintains this temperature to ensure that the soup is ready to drink at any time; humidity adjustment: soup usually does not require additional humidity control, but the system will monitor the humidity to ensure that the environment is suitable.

[0086] The sensors of the smart food cabinet monitor the temperature and humidity data in each storage compartment in real time and transmit the data to the control center. The control center dynamically adjusts the temperature control and humidity control devices based on these data to ensure that the meals are always in the best condition. The temperature control device can use a combination of semiconductor cooling chips and heating modules to achieve rapid heating and cooling. The temperature sensor monitors temperature changes in real time to ensure precise control. The humidity control device can use a combination of humidifiers and hygroscopic materials to adjust the humidity in the storage compartment in real time. The humidity sensor monitors humidity changes to ensure precise control. The control algorithm can be a central processor that dynamically adjusts the temperature control and humidity control devices through a closed-loop control algorithm based on sensor data and preset parameters to ensure that the meals are always in the best condition. The smart food cabinet automatically adjusts the temperature and humidity to ensure the quality of the meals during the distribution and storage process, thereby providing users with the best dining experience.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present invention, the system also includes a user terminal; the user terminal is used to receive the user's order request and the dining preference information set by the user; after the user pays, the order information corresponding to the order request and the dining preference information are sent to the server.

[0088] Specifically, the system also includes a user terminal, which is used to receive the user's order request and the dining preference information set by the user. After the user pays, the order information and dining preference information corresponding to the order request are sent to the server. The application of the user terminal can make meal reservations, and the user can select and reserve meals through the application; the application of the user terminal can also configure the environment, and the user can set and adjust the dining atmosphere preferences (such as light color, music type, temperature, etc.). The application of the user terminal can also perform real-time monitoring, and the user can view the meal status and home environment adjustment in real time; the application of the user terminal can also provide feedback and optimization, and the user can provide feedback on the dining experience, and the system will optimize according to the feedback data.

[0089] In an embodiment of the present invention, the system further includes a distribution center, and the distribution center is used to receive the order information sent by the server and trigger distribution processing according to the order information.

[0090] Specifically, the system also includes a distribution service center. After the user confirms the order and pays through the application of the user terminal, the user terminal transmits the order information to the central control unit through the wireless communication module. The central control unit sends the order information to the catering distribution service center. After the distribution service center receives the order information, it triggers the distribution process so that the meal delivery staff puts the ordered meal into the smart meal cabinet.

[0091] In the embodiment of the present invention, the overall process of the linkage between the smart meal delivery cabinet and the smart home is as follows:

[0092] Meal reservation. The user opens the smart meal system APP / app, browses the meal menu, and selects a dinner set, including a main dish, side dishes, and drinks. The user selects the "romantic dinner" dining atmosphere in the APP / app, preferring soft lighting, gentle music, and a moderate indoor temperature. The user confirms the order and pays.

[0093] Meal delivery. The order information of meal reservations is transmitted to the central control unit through the wireless communication module. The central control unit sends the order information to the catering delivery service. The catering delivery service delivers the meal to the smart meal delivery cabinet designated by the user. The smart meal delivery cabinet identifies the meal by scanning the code or RFID, keeps the meal at a suitable temperature, and keeps the meal fresh through the humidity control device.

[0094] Linkage trigger. The sensor module in the meal delivery cabinet detects that the meal has been put in and transmits the information to the central control unit.
