Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of heating monitoring, and in particular to an operation monitoring device for heating equipment and the heating equipment. Background Art

[0002] At present, heating devices, such as beauty devices, cannot work for too long during cold or hot compresses, and the cooling or heating effects are poor, resulting in insufficient working temperature of the beauty device, or the inability to maintain a stable temperature for a long time, and finally the beauty effect cannot meet expectations. The reason for this type of problem is that when the cooling guide of the beauty device is cooling, in order to reduce the temperature of the active surface, a large amount of heat will be generated on the non-active surface inside the beauty device. After the heat accumulates, it will become more and more difficult to heat up. The same reaction will be more difficult to cool the active surface and maintain a low temperature, that is, more energy consumption is required to achieve the same cooling effect, and vice versa. Therefore, during the use of the beauty device, it can be clearly felt that there are obvious temperature changes inside the beauty device, and after the beauty device has been working continuously for a period of time, the cold compress temperature will not be low enough or unstable, and even the beauty device will not be able to continue working when the working time is too long; the hot compress of the beauty device is the opposite of the temperature, but similar situations will also occur. The beauty device will have the problem of excessive heat accumulation when working.

[0003] Based on this type of problem, the existing technology increases the heat storage threshold by using a heat storage iron block to extend the working time of the beauty instrument, but this method does not solve the problem from the root. It also takes a long time to wait for the heat to dissipate. Once the heat accumulates, the interval between two uses of the beauty instrument will also be lengthened to ensure that the heat is completely dissipated and will not affect the next work efficiency. The existing technology also uses a double-sided probe to offset heat accumulation, but this method will increase the power consumption of the beauty instrument. In addition, neither of the above two methods gives an intuitive degree of heat accumulation. The user cannot accurately know how long the beauty instrument can be used, how much heat has accumulated, and when it can be fully used next time, which seriously affects the user experience.

[0004] In summary, the existing heating devices lack intuitive and effective processing of accumulated heat, which makes it impossible to monitor the real-time operating status of the heating devices, and thus makes it impossible for users to understand the actual working status of the heating devices, making it difficult to ensure the normal operation requirements of the heating devices. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the present invention provides an operation monitoring device and a heating device for a heating device, so as to solve the problem that the existing heating device is unable to realize intuitive and effective processing of the accumulated heat, resulting in the inability to monitor the operation status of the heating device in real time, thereby affecting the operation efficiency of the heating device and making it difficult to ensure the normal operation requirements of the heating device.

[0016] The present invention sets a control module and a reminder module in the operation monitoring device of the heating device, so that the control module can determine the corresponding working state of the heating device according to the different voltage conditions output by the power generation module, and control the reminder module to give corresponding working state reminders according to the different working states of the heating device. The heat generated during the operation of the heating device can be effectively monitored, and the heat accumulation degree of the heating device can be determined in real time so that the user can intuitively understand the current operating state of the heating device according to the current heat accumulation degree, which greatly improves the user's experience of using the heating device and ensures the normal operation of the heating device to a certain extent.

[0036] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0037] In this embodiment, a device for monitoring the operation of a heating device is provided. Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the operation monitoring device of the heating device according to the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the device includes: a power generation module 1 and an indication module 2 connected to the power generation module 1; wherein the power generation module 1 is arranged in the heating device, and generates electricity by utilizing the heat generated by the operation of the heating device, and the output voltage supplies energy to the indication module 2; the indication module 2 outputs a corresponding indication result according to the voltage output by the power generation module 1, so that the user can determine the current operating state of the heating device according to the indication result, and the indication module 2 outputs different indication results correspondingly under different power supply voltages.

[0038] In practical applications, since the heating device generates heat when it is running, there is a temperature difference in the heating device. In this implementation, it is necessary to use the power generation module 1 to generate electricity by temperature difference from the heat generated by the operation of the heating device, and connect the generated electric energy to the power-consuming device, such as the indication module 2, to realize the consumption of the accumulated heat of the heating device and to visualize the degree of heat accumulation. In addition, it is also necessary to consider the hardware structure of the heating device, the reasonable gradient utilization of the temperature difference generated when the heating device is working, the cost of the heating device, and the energy waste. Therefore, in this embodiment, it is necessary to determine the appropriate power generation module 1 and indication module 2 to achieve effective heat processing.

[0039] In this embodiment, the power generation module 1 includes a thermoelectric power generation element, which generates electricity from the heat generated by the operation of the heat generating device through the thermoelectric power generation element. It should be noted that the specific type of the thermoelectric power generation element in this embodiment is not limited here, and can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs. For example, the thermoelectric power generation element includes a thermocouple element or a thermoelectric unit or a preset nanomaterial, wherein the thermoelectric unit is a power generation unit that encapsulates multiple thermocouple elements; the specific type of the preset nanomaterial can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs, such as the preset nanomaterial is graphene, which is only used as an exemplary description.

[0040] It needs to be explained that a thermocouple element (also called a thermocouple) is an electronic component that is the same as a resistor, capacitor, inductor, etc. It can directly measure temperature and convert the temperature signal into a thermoelectric potential signal, which is converted into the temperature of the measured medium through an electrical instrument (or secondary instrument). In practical applications, the appearance of thermocouples is often designed to adapt to the needs, but the basic structure of thermocouples of different appearances is roughly the same. They are usually composed of main parts such as thermoelectrodes, insulating sleeve protection tubes and junction boxes, and are usually used in conjunction with display instruments, recording instruments and electronic regulators. Thermoelectric units are also called thermoelectric modules (Thermoelectric Generator, TEG), which actually contain multiple thermocouple units, but they are packaged together to form a more efficient module. Specifically, the thermoelectric module TEG uses the Seebeck effect to convert the temperature gradient (i.e., temperature difference) into electrical energy (i.e., voltage). The corresponding temperature difference can be utilized by programming the thermoelectric module and setting the temperature difference gradient, that is, when the temperature difference is too high, more thermocouple units are enabled to accelerate the consumption of heat energy and increase the generated potential. The preset nanomaterials are nanostructured materials obtained by nanotechnology, such as carbon nanotubes. Due to their unique physical and chemical properties, namely the excellent electronic and thermal conductivity properties in the materials, these materials will exhibit extremely high thermoelectric properties and can be used for temperature difference power generation.

[0041] The thermoelectric power generation element of the embodiment of the present invention is environmentally friendly to a certain extent. It can not only effectively reduce the heat accumulation rate of the heating equipment, significantly enhance the service life of the heating equipment, but also greatly improve the operating efficiency of the heating equipment, ensuring the safety and reliability of the operation of the heating equipment.

[0042] It should be noted that the installation position of the temperature difference power generation element, such as the thermocouple element, in this embodiment is not limited here, and can be adaptively set on the heating device according to actual needs. Specifically, for heating devices such as beauty devices, the thermocouple element can be installed between the heat storage iron block inside the beauty device and the other side of the non-active surface. There is a temperature difference at this installation position. Furthermore, the thermocouple element can be installed at the position where the temperature difference of the beauty device is most obvious.

[0043] It should be noted that the specific type of the indication module 2 in this embodiment is not limited here, and can be determined according to actual needs. In practical applications, the indication module 2 is used as a power consumption module for the operation of the heat generating device. It not only needs to consume the voltage generated by the temperature difference power generation of the power generation module 1, but also needs to indicate the voltage level accordingly, so that the user can understand the current heat accumulation of the heat generating device according to different indication results.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, the indication module 2 can be set to an LED lamp, and the different display brightness of the LED lamp is used to reflect the current operating status of the heating device; the indication module 2 can be set to a voice chip, and the corresponding voice information is broadcast by using the voice chip to enable the user to understand the current operating status of the heating device; the indication module 2 can be set to a liquid crystal display, and the voltage generated by the temperature difference power generation of the power generation module 1 is displayed accordingly on the liquid crystal display, and the current operating status of the heating device is reflected by the current display content of the liquid crystal display; the indication module 2 can also be set to a small fan, and the small fan can be controlled to operate in a gear corresponding to the voltage generated by the temperature difference power generation of the power generation module 1, so that the user can understand the current operating status of the heating device; wherein the fan not only consumes the electrical energy generated by heat energy, but the air flow generated when the fan is running can also accelerate the removal of heat generated when the heating device is running; the above contents are all used as exemplary explanations and are not limited to this.

[0045] The operation monitoring device of the heating device in the embodiment of the present invention generates electricity from the heat generated by the operation of the heating device through a power generation module arranged in the heating device, and the corresponding output voltage is used to supply energy to the indication module, and the indication module outputs different indication results correspondingly under different power supply voltages, so that the user can determine the current operation status of the heating device according to the corresponding indication results, thereby realizing real-time monitoring of the current operation status of the heating device, and being able to accurately understand the heat accumulation of the heating device, which not only improves the operation efficiency of the heating device, but also improves the user experience, thereby meeting the safe and efficient operation requirements of the heating device.

[0046] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 The indication module 2 includes a light display unit 21 , and the indication result is display brightness. The light display unit 21 is used to output the corresponding display brightness according to the voltage output by the power generation module 1 .

[0047] In this embodiment, the light display unit 21 includes at least one LED lamp. It should be noted that in this embodiment, not only a single LED lamp (i.e., LED lamps with different display brightness) can be set, but also the heat accumulation corresponding to the heating device can be known through the different brightness displayed by the LED lamp (i.e., as the heat of the heating device continues to accumulate, the temperature difference will become larger, and the voltage output by the thermocouple element will also be larger, so the brightness of the LED display will also be stronger, that is, the light of the LED will be brighter); if the user wants to have a more intuitive feeling of heat accumulation, the single LED can be replaced with a combination of several LED lamps that are lit in stages, that is, for multiple LED lamps with a single display brightness, the heat accumulation of the heating device is reflected by the number of LED lamps that are lit; or for multiple LED lamps with different display brightness, the heat accumulation of the heating device is indicated by the display brightness of the LED lamp and the number of LED lamps that are lit, which is only an exemplary explanation.

[0048] It should be explained that in actual applications, the mapping relationship between the brightness and voltage of the LED lights, as well as the mapping relationship between the number of lit LED lights and the voltage will be calibrated offline. The LED lights set in the light display unit 21 will be controlled accordingly through the aforementioned mapping relationship (which can be optimized and updated according to the calibration data) and the current voltage output by the power generation module 1.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present invention, a light display unit of at least one LED lamp is provided to indicate the heat generated by the operation of the heating device accordingly. This can not only enable the user to intuitively understand the heat accumulation of the heating device and obtain the current operating status of the heating device in real time, but also consume the heat of the heating device, thereby extending the working time of the heating device, greatly reducing the cost of monitoring the operation of the heating device and improving the efficiency of monitoring the operation of the heating device.

[0050] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 The indication module 2 includes a voice broadcast unit 22, and the indication result is voice information. The voice broadcast unit 22 is used to broadcast the corresponding voice information according to the voltage output by the power generation unit.

[0051] It should be noted that the specific type of the voice broadcast unit 22 and the specific content of the voice information in this embodiment are not limited here, and can be adaptively determined according to actual needs. In a specific embodiment, the voice broadcast unit 22 is a voice chip, which is only used as an exemplary illustration. Specifically, the indication module of the voice broadcast unit is used to make the indication module broadcast the corresponding voice information when the power generation module outputs the voltage, so that the user can know the current operating status of the heating device only through the voice information broadcast by the voice broadcast unit, which provides a convenient and concise broadcasting method for the heat accumulation generated during the operation of the heating device, which not only helps to enhance the user experience, but also greatly improves the operating efficiency of the heating device.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present invention, an indication module of a bright display unit is provided, which is used to make the indication module output a corresponding display brightness when the power generation module outputs a voltage, so that the user can know the current operating status of the heating device only through the different display brightness of the bright display unit, and provide an intuitive visual display method for the heat accumulation generated during the operation of the heating device, which helps to improve the operating efficiency of the heating device and further ensure the normal operation of the heating device.

[0053] In this embodiment, see Figure 2 The operation monitoring device of the heating equipment also includes: a control module 3 and a reminder module 4. The input end of the control module 3 is connected to the output end of the power generation module 1, and the output end is connected to the reminder module 4. The control module 3 controls the reminder module 4 according to the voltage output by the power generation module 1 to perform corresponding working status reminders.

[0054] It should be noted that the specific type of the control module 3 in this embodiment is not limited here and can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the control module, wherein the control module 3 is a controller of a certain model. Figure 3 It can be seen that the controller includes: one or more processors 10, a memory 20, and interfaces for connecting various components, including high-speed interfaces and low-speed interfaces. The various components are connected to each other using different buses for communication, and can be installed on a common motherboard or installed in other ways as needed. The processor can process instructions executed in the controller, including instructions stored in or on the memory to display graphical information of the GUI on an external input / output device (such as a display device coupled to the interface). In some optional embodiments, if necessary, multiple processors and / or multiple buses can be used together with multiple memories and multiple memories. Similarly, multiple controllers can be connected, and each device provides some necessary operations (for example, as a server array, a group of blade servers, or a multi-processor system). Figure 3 A processor 10 is taken as an example.

[0055] The processor 10 may be a central processing unit, a network processor or a combination thereof. The processor 10 may further include a hardware chip. The hardware chip may be a dedicated integrated circuit, a programmable logic device or a combination thereof. The programmable logic device may be a complex programmable logic device, a field programmable gate array, a general purpose array logic or any combination thereof.

[0056] The memory 20 stores instructions executable by at least one processor 10, so that at least one processor 10 executes the method shown in the above embodiment.

[0057] The memory 20 may include a program storage area and a data storage area, wherein the program storage area may store an operating system, an application required by at least one function; the data storage area may store data created according to the use of the controller, etc. In addition, the memory 20 may include a high-speed random access memory, and may also include a non-transient memory, such as at least one disk storage device, a flash memory device, or other non-transient solid-state storage device. In some optional embodiments, the memory 20 may optionally include a memory remotely arranged relative to the processor 10, and these remote memories may be connected to the controller via a network. Examples of the above-mentioned network include, but are not limited to, the Internet, an intranet, a local area network, a mobile communication network, and combinations thereof.

[0058] The memory 20 may include a volatile memory, such as a random access memory; the memory may also include a non-volatile memory, such as a flash memory, a hard disk or a solid state drive; the memory 20 may also include a combination of the above types of memory.

[0059] The controller also includes an input device 30 and an output device 40. The processor 10, the memory 20, the input device 30 and the output device 40 may be connected via a bus or other means. Figure 3 The example of connecting through bus is taken in the following.

[0060] The input device 30 can receive input digital or character information, and generate signal input related to the user settings and function control of the thermal power unit operation control unit, such as a touch screen, a keypad, a mouse, a track pad, a touch pad, an indicator rod, one or more mouse buttons, a trackball, a joystick, etc. The output device 40 may include a display device, an auxiliary lighting device (e.g., an LED) and a tactile feedback device (e.g., a vibration motor), etc. The above-mentioned display device includes but is not limited to a liquid crystal display, a light emitting diode, a display and a plasma display. In some optional embodiments, the display device may be a touch screen.

[0061] It should be noted that the specific type of the reminder module 4 in this embodiment is not limited here, and can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs. For example, the reminder module 4 is a buzzer, which is only used as an exemplary description.

[0062] In actual applications, due to the different degrees of accumulated heat generated by the operation of the heating device, the operating state of the heating device, such as the normal operating state and the abnormal operating state, will also be adjusted accordingly. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the heating device is in different operating states, the control reminder module 4 performs corresponding working status reminders.

[0063] In this embodiment, the typical operating status of the heating device is mainly considered, such as when the accumulated heat of the heating device exceeds the maximum set threshold or the accumulated heat of the heating device is consumed, and corresponding operating status reminders including a power generation module start reminder, a heating device operation abnormality reminder, and a heating device stop operation reminder are set according to the voltage output by the power generation module 1. This allows the user to timely understand the current operating status of the heating device, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the heating device to a great extent.

[0064] In this embodiment, the control module 3 controls the reminder module 4 to perform corresponding working status reminders according to the voltage output by the power generation module 1, including:

[0065] 1. When the voltage output by the power generation module 1 is greater than the first preset voltage threshold, the control module 3 controls the reminder module 4 to start the power generation module operation reminder.

[0066] It should be noted that after the heating device of this embodiment is powered on, the power generation module 1 is started by default. At this time, the power generation module 1 is first in a standby state, and the power generation module 1 can only work after certain conditions are met.

[0067] 2. When the voltage output by the power generation module 1 is greater than the second preset voltage threshold, the control module 3 controls the reminder module 4 to issue a reminder of abnormal operation of the heating device.

[0068] It should be noted that when the abnormal operation reminder of the heating device is performed, it indicates that the current operation state of the heating device is abnormal, and it is necessary to take a warning processing method of shutting down the device in time to ensure the safe operation of the heating device. Therefore, the control module 3 in this embodiment also includes controlling the heating device to stop running. Specifically, controlling the heating device to stop running through the control module helps to ensure the safe operation of the heating device and greatly meets the normal operation requirements of the heating device.

[0069] 3. When the voltage output by the power generation module 1 is less than the third preset voltage threshold, the control module 3 controls the reminder module 4 to remind the heating device to stop running, wherein the third preset voltage threshold is less than the first preset voltage threshold, and the first preset voltage threshold is less than the second preset voltage threshold.

[0070] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the specific values ​​of the first preset voltage threshold, the second preset voltage threshold and the third preset voltage threshold are not limited here, and can be adaptively adjusted according to actual needs.

[0071] In this embodiment, working status reminders including power generation module start-up reminder, heating device operation abnormality reminder and heating device stop operation reminder are set according to the voltage output by the power generation module, so that the user can timely understand the current operating status of the heating device, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the heating device to a great extent.

[0072] In the embodiment of the present invention, a control module and a reminder module are set in the operation monitoring device of the heating device, so that the control module can determine the corresponding working state of the heating device according to the different voltage conditions output by the power generation module, and control the reminder module to give corresponding working state reminders according to the different working states of the heating device, so that the heat generated during the operation of the heating device can be effectively monitored, and the heat accumulation degree of the heating device can be determined in real time, so that the user can intuitively understand the current operating state of the heating device according to the current heat accumulation degree, which greatly improves the user's experience of using the heating device and ensures the normal operation of the heating device to a certain extent.

[0073] In this embodiment, a heating device is also provided. Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the heating device. Figure 4 It can be seen that the heating device includes a heating device body 401 and a heating device operation monitoring device 402 of the present embodiment arranged on the heating device body 401. It should be noted that the relevant contents of the heating device operation monitoring device 402 are referred to above and will not be repeated here.

[0074] In this embodiment, the heating device is mainly a product with heat accumulation, that is, a beauty instrument. It should be noted that the specific type of beauty instrument can be determined according to the adaptability of actual needs, such as beauty instruments including ultrasonic beauty instruments, radio frequency beauty instruments, microcurrent beauty instruments, LED light beauty instruments, cleaning beauty instruments and other special types of beauty instruments, which are only for exemplary explanation.

[0075] In addition, the operation monitoring device of the heating device of this embodiment can be applied not only to beauty instruments, but also to other series of products that share the same heating principle as beauty instruments, such as computer CPU cooling, mobile phone cooling and other related products that need to control heat accumulation.

[0076] The embodiment of the present invention integrates the operation monitoring device of the above-mentioned heating device on the heating device, which can make the heating device of this type have a very stable and reliable operation state, can intuitively understand the heat accumulation of the heating device, ensure the normal operation of the heating device, meet the efficient use requirements of the heating device, and improve the user experience to a certain extent.

[0077] In a specific embodiment, the heating device is a microcurrent beauty instrument (also called a beauty instrument). In order to solve the problem that heat accumulates too quickly in existing beauty instruments and the degree of heat accumulation cannot be intuitively determined, temperature difference power generation is adopted, that is, thermocouples are used to generate temperature difference power and supply electrical energy to LEDs, so as to achieve the technical effect of reducing the heat accumulation speed of the beauty instrument and intuitively reflecting the degree of heat accumulation to the user.

[0078] In this embodiment, heat insulation material is added between the heat storage iron block inside the beauty instrument and the other side of the non-active surface, and a thermocouple is added to generate electricity, and then the electricity generated by the thermocouple is supplied to the LED indicator light of the beauty instrument. Specifically, the basic working principle of this type of solution is to use the heat accumulation generated by the refrigeration guide to generate electricity by temperature difference, convert thermal energy into electrical energy, reduce the speed of heat accumulation, and prompt the user so that the user can know the degree of heat accumulation in real time and accurately. As the heat continues to accumulate, the temperature difference becomes larger, and the voltage output by the thermocouple is also larger, so the light of the LED will be more intense. A threshold value (i.e., the maximum value) can be set in the solution. When the temperature difference reaches the set maximum value, the buzzer will alarm and stop the beauty instrument. Similarly, the buzzer needs to be sounded to remind after the accumulated heat is completely consumed.

[0079] In a specific embodiment, the operation monitoring device of the heating device of this embodiment is integrated on the beauty instrument, and a beauty instrument heating operation monitoring scheme is provided accordingly. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart corresponding to the accompanying drawing of the monitoring scheme can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although the logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in a different order from here. Figure 5 This is a flow chart of the beauty instrument's heating operation monitoring process. Figure 5 , real-time monitoring of the accumulated heat of the micro-current beauty instrument is carried out, mainly controlling the heat accumulation speed of the micro-current beauty instrument and providing real-time feedback to the user on the operating status of the micro-current beauty instrument. The monitoring process specifically includes the following steps:

[0080] In step A, the beauty instrument is powered on and the thermocouple is started.

[0081] In this embodiment, the function of the thermocouple is to detect the degree of heat accumulation on the non-working surface when the beauty instrument is working. Specifically, after the beauty instrument is powered on, the thermocouple is turned on synchronously, that is, the thermocouple is defaulted to work to supply energy to the LED, so that the brightness of the LED changes in real time according to the potential difference.

[0082] Step B: The thermocouple outputs voltage, the buzzer works, and the LED lights up.

[0083] In this embodiment, when the temperature difference of the beauty instrument reaches a certain level, the thermocouple starts working to power the LED light and the buzzer, wherein the buzzer is used to remind the user that the heat on the non-active surface has begun to accumulate, and the degree of heat accumulation is reflected to the user in real time through the brightness of the LED.

[0084] In practical applications, since the temperature difference of 0.01℃ cannot be detected by thermocouples, the heat energy contained in the temperature difference is not enough to support the thermocouple to generate potential difference electrical energy. Therefore, if the temperature difference does not reach a certain level, the thermocouple will always be in standby mode.

[0085] Step C: When the heat accumulation threshold is reached, the buzzer reminds the user and the beauty instrument is forced to stop.

[0086] In this embodiment, it is detected whether the voltage change of the thermocouple output tends to be stable, that is, the voltage reaches the highest set threshold, and a buzzer signal is given to make it work again, so as to remind the user that the heat accumulation has reached the limit and it is necessary to forcibly stop the beauty instrument and wait for the heat to be absorbed and utilized by the thermocouple and accelerated in the form of light energy. Specifically, the beauty instrument has over-temperature protection, and once the temperature difference is too large, the working voltage will be automatically cut off to stop working.

[0087] Step D: The heat is completely consumed, the buzzer sounds, the thermocouple stops working, and the LED goes out.

[0088] In this embodiment, it is detected whether the thermocouple suspends outputting voltage, that is, the heat of the beauty instrument is completely consumed, so that the temperature difference is not enough to continue to support the thermocouple to continue to generate electricity. At the same time, a signal is provided to the buzzer to make it issue a prompt to remind the user that the heat of the beauty instrument has been completely consumed and the beauty instrument can be supported for a complete operation again. At the same time, the LED is turned off.

[0089] It should be noted that the thermocouple in this embodiment is only responsible for the output voltage, and the control process of the LED and the buzzer both work according to the potential difference, that is, the size of the output voltage. The difference is that the LED changes its brightness in real time according to the voltage change, and the buzzer works at three moments: when the LED starts working, when the maximum temperature difference is reached, that is, when the LED is brightest, and when the temperature difference is completely consumed. That is, the buzzer has a cut-off and control signal, and the LED is directly controlled by the potential difference.

[0090] In summary, the beauty instrument equipped with the operation monitoring device of the heating device according to the embodiment of the present invention can reduce the heat accumulation on the non-active surface when the beauty instrument is in use, because the thermocouple, LED light and buzzer control signal are set. At the same time, the beauty instrument can also accelerate the consumption of accumulated heat when it is on standby, and provide real-time feedback on the heat situation through the LED and buzzer, so that the user can accurately understand the heat accumulation situation of the beauty instrument, thereby improving the operating efficiency of the beauty instrument and the user's experience, and greatly meeting the normal operation requirements of the beauty instrument.

[0091] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
