[0002] In the related art, cooking utensils can only realize a multi-stage cooking process, but cannot combine the multi-stage cooking process with multiple cooking modes to realize the cooking of cooking ingredients, resulting in a single cooking mode being unable to meet the user's various needs for cooking ingredients, affecting the user experience. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] To this end, a first aspect of the present invention provides a method for controlling a cooking appliance.

[0005] A second aspect of the present invention provides a control device for a cooking appliance.

[0006] A third aspect of the present invention provides a control device for a cooking appliance.

[0007] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a cooking appliance.

[0008] A fifth aspect of the present invention provides a readable storage medium.

[0009] A first aspect of the present invention provides a control method for a cooking appliance, wherein the cooking appliance includes a microwave device, a heat pipe device and a steam device, and the control method for the cooking appliance includes: obtaining the type of ingredients to be cooked; determining at least one cooking stage and a cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage according to the type of ingredients; determining cooking parameters of each cooking mode according to the type of ingredients and the cooking mode; controlling the operation of the cooking appliance according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode; wherein the cooking mode includes a first mode, a second mode and a third mode, wherein in the first mode, the microwave device operates, in the second mode, the heat pipe device and the steam device operate, and in the third mode, the heat pipe device operates, and the cooking parameters include the microwave power of the microwave device, the operating power of the heat pipe device, the temperature of the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, the duration of the cooking stage, the surface temperature of the ingredients to be cooked, and the surface chromaticity of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0010] The control method of the cooking appliance provided by the present invention can be used for a microwave-steam-bake integrated cooking appliance, that is, the cooking appliance can realize three heating methods: microwave heating, steam heating and baking heating. Specifically, the cooking appliance includes a microwave device, a heat pipe device and a steam device. When the microwave device is running, microwave heating of the food to be cooked can be realized. When the heat pipe device is running, baking of the food to be cooked can be realized. When the steam device is running, steam heating of the food can be realized.

[0011] During the cooking process, first, the type of ingredients to be cooked can be obtained. Specifically, the user can actively input the information of the ingredients to be cooked into the cooking appliance. That is, the cooking appliance is provided with an information input module, and the user operates the information input module to input the type of ingredients to be cooked into the cooking appliance. Alternatively, the cooking appliance can also be provided with a camera recognition module, through which the cooking appliance can capture images of the ingredients to be cooked placed in the cooking appliance, thereby determining the type of ingredients to be cooked based on the image information of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0012] Furthermore, after determining the type of the food to be cooked, the cooking appliance can determine at least one cooking stage in the cooking process and a cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage according to the type of the food. That is, according to the type of the food to be cooked, the cooking appliance can determine at least one cooking stage suitable for the type of food, and through at least one cooking stage, the cooking effect of the food to be cooked can be guaranteed to ensure the cooking needs of the user for the food to be cooked.

[0013] Furthermore, the cooking appliance can also determine the cooking mode required for each cooking stage according to the type of ingredients. That is, the heating mode in each cooking stage. Specifically, the cooking mode includes a first mode, a second mode and a third mode, wherein in the first mode, the microwave device operates. That is, in the first mode, microwave heating is used for cooking. In the second mode, the heat pipe device and the steam device operate, that is, in the second mode, the ingredients to be cooked are heated simultaneously by steam heating and baking heating. In the third mode, the heat pipe device operates, that is, in the third mode, the ingredients to be cooked are heated by baking heating. It is understandable that in addition to the above three cooking modes, the cooking appliance may also have other cooking modes, such as a mode in which microwaves and heat pipes operate simultaneously, a mode in which microwaves and steam operate simultaneously, and the like.

[0014] By determining the cooking stages and the cooking modes at each cooking stage, it is possible to ensure that, for different types of ingredients, especially when the ingredients to be cooked are frozen ingredients, the ingredients are heated evenly from a frozen state to a high-temperature state, so as to ensure that the most suitable cooking mode for each stage is used at different stages of cooking, ensure the cooking effect at each cooking stage during the cooking process of the ingredients to be cooked, and further ensure the final cooking effect of the ingredients to be cooked, thereby improving user experience.

[0015] Furthermore, after determining each cooking stage of the food to be cooked and the cooking mode of each cooking stage, the cooking parameters in each cooking mode can also be determined according to the type of food. Specifically, the cooking parameters include the microwave power of the microwave device, the operating power of the heat pipe device, the temperature of the cooking cavity of the cooking utensil, the duration of the cooking stage, the surface temperature of the food to be cooked, and the surface color of the food to be cooked. By determining the cooking parameters, it can be ensured that the food to be cooked is cooked according to the corresponding cooking parameters in each cooking stage. On the basis of ensuring that the cooking mode of each cooking stage is suitable for the food to be cooked, the cooking parameters of the cooking process are further refined to ensure the cooking effect of each cooking stage.

[0016] Specifically, the cooking appliance may include a camera module to identify the color change of the food to be cooked during the heating process through the camera module. The cooking appliance may also include an infrared module, through which the temperature change of the food to be cooked can be sensed during the cooking process.

[0017] Furthermore, after determining the cooking stage, the cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage, and the cooking parameters corresponding to each cooking mode, the cooking appliance can operate according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode to complete the automatic cooking process of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0018] The control method of the cooking utensil provided by the present invention can be applied to a microwave oven integrated cooking utensil. During the cooking process, according to the type of the food to be cooked, at least one cooking stage required in the cooking process of the food to be cooked and the cooking mode required for each cooking stage can be determined. Furthermore, according to the type of the food to be cooked and the cooking mode of each cooking stage, the cooking parameters in each cooking mode can also be determined. Then, the cooking effect of the food at each cooking stage can be guaranteed according to the type of food, thereby ensuring the final cooking effect of the food to be cooked. Furthermore, after determining the cooking stage and the cooking mode and cooking parameters of each cooking stage, the cooking utensil can cook the food to be cooked according to the cooking mode and cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking stage, thus completing the automatic cooking process of the cooking utensil. The user does not need to operate during the cooking process, thereby improving the automation of the cooking utensil and improving the user experience.

[0019] In addition, the control method of the cooking appliance in the above technical solution provided by the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:

[0020] In the above technical scheme, further, according to the type of food, at least one cooking stage and the cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage are determined, including: when the food type is frozen meat food, at least one cooking stage is determined to include a thawing stage, a heating stage, a heating stage and a coloring stage; the cooking mode corresponding to the thawing stage is a first mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the heating stage is a second mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the heating stage is a second mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the coloring stage is a third mode.

[0021] In this technical solution, for frozen meat ingredients, it can be determined that the cooking stages of cooking frozen meat ingredients include four stages, namely, thawing stage, temperature rising stage, heating stage and coloring stage.

[0022] In the thawing stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the first mode, that is, the frozen meat is frozen by microwave heating, so as to ensure that the microwaves generated by the microwave device can act on the surface and the inside of the frozen meat ingredients at the same time during the thawing process, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the thawing process of the frozen meat ingredients, thereby avoiding uneven heating in the subsequent heating process and affecting the heating effect.

[0023] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the second mode, that is, the frozen meat ingredients are heated by heat pipe heating and steam heating at the same time, so as to ensure that the food is wet-baked and heated after the frozen meat ingredients are thawed, so that the steam molecules fully enter the food and fully contact the food, and the tenderness of the meat is maintained while the temperature inside the food is continuously raised.

[0024] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the second mode, that is, the frozen meat ingredients are heated by heat pipe heating and steam heating at the same time. When the temperature of the cooking chamber reaches a certain level, the steam volume is increased to allow more steam molecules to fully contact the frozen meat ingredients, maintain a higher temperature near the frozen meat ingredients, thereby achieving rapid heating and ensuring the maturity of the ingredients.

[0025] Furthermore, in the coloring stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the food to be cooked is baked by the heat pipe device to achieve uniform coloring on the surface of the food to be cooked, thereby improving the cooking effect of the food to be cooked.

[0026] In any of the above technical solutions, further, when the type of food is frozen meat food, the operation of the cooking appliance is controlled according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode, including: when the cooking appliance is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device is controlled to be a first preset power; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the first preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters the heating stage, and controls the heat pipe device and the steam device to operate so that the temperature of the cooking cavity is within a first temperature range; when the duration of the heating stage reaches the first preset time, the cooking appliance enters the heating stage, and controls the heat pipe device and the steam device to operate so that the temperature of the cooking cavity is within a second temperature range; when the duration of the heating stage reaches the second preset time, the cooking appliance enters the coloring stage, and controls the heat pipe device to operate so that the temperature of the cooking cavity is within a third temperature range; when the duration of the coloring stage reaches the third preset time, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop operating.

[0027] In this technical solution, for the cooking process of frozen meat ingredients, in the thawing stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the microwave power of the microwave device. Specifically, when the cooking utensil is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device can be controlled to remain at a first preset power. The first preset power can be 30% to 100% of the maximum power of the microwave device. Specifically, it can be set to 60% of the maximum power of the microwave device, which can ensure the heating effect of the microwave heating process, so as to ensure the thawing effect of the frozen meat ingredients, and can also ensure the uniformity of the thawing process.

[0028] Furthermore, during the thawing process, the surface temperature of the frozen meat ingredients can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the ingredients to be cooked reaches the first preset temperature, it indicates that the thawing process has been completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the first preset temperature can be 5 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, that is, in the heating stage, the heat pipe device and the steam device of the cooking appliance are controlled to operate simultaneously, and at the same time, the temperature in the cooking cavity is ensured to be in the first temperature range, so that the stable and uniform heating of the ingredients to be cooked can be ensured in the heating stage, so that the steam molecules can fully enter the food and fully contact the food, and the tenderness of the meat is maintained while the temperature of the food is continuously heated. Specifically, the first temperature range can be 150 degrees Celsius to 230 degrees Celsius, that is, in the heating stage, the temperature in the cooking cavity needs to be maintained between 150 degrees Celsius and 230 degrees Celsius.

[0029] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the duration of the heating stage is monitored in real time. When the duration of the heating stage reaches the first preset duration, it indicates that the heating stage is over and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the first preset duration can be 5 minutes to 10 minutes. In the heating stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is also the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, that is, in the heating stage, the heat pipe device and the steam device of the cooking appliance are controlled to operate simultaneously, and at the same time, the temperature in the cooking cavity is ensured to be in the second temperature range, so as to ensure the rapid heating of the ingredients to be cooked, and then ensure the maturity of the ingredients to be cooked. Specifically, the second temperature range can be between 200 degrees Celsius and 250 degrees Celsius. That is, in the heating stage, it is necessary to ensure that the temperature in the cooking cavity is between 200 degrees Celsius and 250 degrees Celsius.

[0030] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the duration of the heating stage is monitored in real time. When the duration of the heating stage reaches the second preset duration, it indicates that the heating stage is over and the cooking appliance can enter the coloring stage. Specifically, the second preset duration can be 5 minutes to 25 minutes. In the coloring stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is also the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance. That is, in the coloring stage, the operation of the heat pipe device of the cooking appliance is controlled, and at the same time, the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance is maintained within the third temperature range, so as to achieve uniform coloring of the surface of the cooking ingredients to be cooked by baking. Specifically, the third temperature range can be 200 degrees Celsius to 300 degrees Celsius. That is, in the coloring stage, the temperature in the cooking cavity needs to be maintained between 200 degrees Celsius and 300 degrees Celsius.

[0031] Furthermore, after entering the coloring stage, the duration of the coloring stage is monitored in real time, and when the duration of the coloring stage reaches a third preset duration, it indicates that the coloring stage is over and the cooking process of the food to be cooked is over. Specifically, the third preset duration can be 5 minutes to 25 minutes.

[0032] In any of the above technical solutions, further, according to the type of food, at least one cooking stage and the cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage are determined, including: when the food type is the first frozen prepared food, at least one cooking stage is determined to include a preheating stage, a temperature rise stage, a heating stage and a coloring stage; wherein the thickness of the first frozen prepared food is less than the preset thickness; the cooking mode corresponding to the preheating stage is the third mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the temperature rise stage is the third mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the heating stage is the third mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the coloring stage is the third mode.

[0033] In this technical solution, for the first frozen prepared food, it can be determined that the cooking stage of cooking the first frozen prepared food includes four stages, namely, a preheating stage, a temperature rising stage, a heating stage and a coloring stage.

[0034] In the preheating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so that the surface of the first frozen prepared food is slowly warmed up, and at the same time, since the thickness of the first frozen prepared food is small, the inconsistent maturity of the surface and the inside of the first frozen prepared food during the preheating process can be avoided to affect the heating effect.

[0035] Furthermore, in the temperature rising stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so as to ensure that the surface and the interior of the first frozen prepared food are heated at the same time, and the maturity is uniform.

[0036] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so as to ensure that the surface and the interior of the first frozen prepared food are quickly heated at the same time, and the first frozen prepared food is quickly cooked.

[0037] Furthermore, in the coloring stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the food to be cooked is baked by the heat pipe device to achieve uniform coloring on the surface of the food to be cooked, thereby improving the cooking effect of the food to be cooked.

[0038] It is understandable that, in the four cooking stages of the first frozen prepared food, the third mode is used for cooking, but the cooking parameters in the cooking modes of different stages are different, thereby achieving staged heating of the first frozen prepared food to ensure the cooking effect of the first frozen prepared food.

[0039] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the heat pipe device includes a first top heat pipe, a second top heat pipe and a first bottom heat pipe, wherein the calorific value of the first top heat pipe is less than the calorific value of the second top heat pipe, and when the food type is the first frozen pre-prepared food, the operation of the cooking appliance is controlled according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode, including: when the cooking appliance is in the preheating stage, the first top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe are controlled to operate; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the second preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters the heating stage, and the first top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe are controlled to operate; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the third preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters the heating stage, and the second top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe are controlled to operate; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the fourth preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters the coloring stage, and the first top heat pipe and the second top heat pipe are controlled to operate; when the surface chroma of the food to be cooked reaches the first preset chroma, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop operating.

[0040] In this technical solution, the heat pipe device of the cooking utensil may include a first top heat pipe, a second top heat pipe and a first bottom heat pipe, wherein the heat generated by the first top heat pipe is less than the heat generated by the second top heat pipe.

[0041] Specifically, during the cooking process of the first frozen prepared food, first, the preheating stage is entered. During the preheating stage, the first top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe can be controlled to operate so as to heat the upper surface and the lower surface of the first frozen prepared food at the same time, so as to ensure that the first frozen prepared food is preheated evenly, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the maturity of the first frozen prepared food during the cooking process.

[0042] Furthermore, after entering the preheating stage, the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food reaches the second preset temperature, it indicates that the preheating stage has been completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the second preset temperature can be 20 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the first top heat pipe and the second top heat pipe. This allows the first frozen prepared food to be heated quickly.

[0043] Furthermore, after entering the temperature rising stage, the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food reaches the third preset temperature, it indicates that the temperature rising stage has been completed and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the third preset temperature can be 90 degrees Celsius to 100 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the second top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe to ensure the uniformity of the maturity of the first frozen prepared food.

[0044] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food reaches a fourth preset temperature, it indicates that the heating stage is completed and the cooking appliance can enter the coloring stage. Specifically, the fourth preset temperature can be 110 degrees Celsius to 130 degrees Celsius. In the coloring stage, the first top heat pipe and the second top heat pipe heat the first frozen prepared food at the same time to achieve uniform coloring of the surface of the first frozen prepared food.

[0045] Furthermore, after entering the coloring stage, the surface color of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface color of the first frozen prepared food reaches a first preset color, it indicates that the cooking of the first frozen prepared food is complete and the cooking appliance can stop running.

[0046] In any of the above technical solutions, further, according to the type of food, at least one cooking stage and the cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage are determined, including: when the food type is a second frozen prepared food, at least one cooking stage is determined to include a thawing stage, a heating stage and a coloring stage; wherein the thickness of the second frozen prepared food is greater than or equal to a preset thickness; the cooking mode corresponding to the thawing stage is the first mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the heating stage is the third mode; and the cooking mode corresponding to the coloring stage is the third mode.

[0047] In this technical solution, for the second frozen prepared food, it can be determined that the cooking stage of cooking the second frozen prepared food includes three stages, namely, a thawing stage, a heating stage and a coloring stage.

[0048] Among them, compared with the first frozen pre-prepared food, the thickness of the second frozen pre-prepared food is greater than or equal to the preset thickness, that is, the thickness of the second frozen pre-prepared food is thicker. Therefore, during the heating process, the second frozen pre-prepared food needs to be thawed first, that is, a thawing stage is required. During the thawing stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the first mode. That is, the second frozen pre-prepared food is thawed by the microwave device. In this way, it is ensured that during the thawing process, the microwaves generated by the microwave device can act on the surface and the inside of the second frozen pre-prepared food at the same time, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the thawing process of the second frozen pre-prepared food, thereby avoiding uneven heating in the subsequent heating process and affecting the heating effect.

[0049] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the second frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so as to ensure that the surface and the inside of the second frozen prepared food are quickly heated at the same time, and the second frozen prepared food is quickly cooked.

[0050] Furthermore, in the coloring stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the second frozen prepared food is baked by the heat pipe device to achieve uniform coloring on the surface of the second frozen prepared food and improve the cooking effect of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0051] It is understandable that the third mode is used for cooking during the heating stage and the coloring stage of the second frozen prepared food, but the cooking parameters in the cooking modes of different stages are different, thereby realizing a staged heating and coloring process of the second frozen prepared food to ensure the cooking effect of the second frozen prepared food.

[0052] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the heat pipe device includes a third top heat pipe, a fourth top heat pipe and a second bottom heat pipe, wherein the calorific value of the third top heat pipe is less than the calorific value of the fourth top heat pipe, and when the food type is the second frozen pre-prepared food, the operation of the cooking appliance is controlled according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode, including: when the cooking appliance is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device is controlled to be the second preset power; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the fifth preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters the heating stage, and the third top heat pipe and the second bottom heat pipe are controlled to operate; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the sixth preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters the coloring stage, and the third top heat pipe and the fourth top heat pipe are controlled to operate; when the surface chroma of the food to be cooked reaches the second preset chroma, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop operating.

[0053] In this technical solution, the heat pipe device of the cooking appliance may include a third top heat pipe, a fourth top heat pipe and a second bottom heat pipe, wherein the heat generated by the third top heat pipe is less than the heat generated by the fourth top heat pipe.

[0054] Specifically, during the cooking process of the second frozen prepared food, first, the thawing stage is entered. During the thawing stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the microwave power of the microwave device. Specifically, when the cooking utensil is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device can be controlled to be maintained at a second preset power. The second preset power can be 30% to 100% of the maximum power of the microwave device. Specifically, it can be set to 60% of the maximum power of the microwave device, which can ensure the heating effect of the microwave heating process, so as to ensure the thawing effect of the second frozen prepared food, and can also ensure the uniformity of the thawing process.

[0055] Furthermore, after entering the thawing stage, the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food reaches the fifth preset temperature, it indicates that the thawing stage has been completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the fifth preset temperature can be 5 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the second frozen prepared food is heated by the third top heat pipe and the second bottom heat pipe, so as to achieve a rapid heating process of the second frozen prepared food.

[0056] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food reaches a sixth preset temperature, it indicates that the heating stage is completed and the cooking appliance can enter the coloring stage. Specifically, the sixth preset temperature can be 75 degrees Celsius to 95 degrees Celsius. In the coloring stage, the second frozen prepared food is heated by the third top heat pipe and the fourth top heat pipe to achieve a uniform coloring process on the surface of the second frozen prepared food.

[0057] Furthermore, after entering the coloring stage, the surface color of the second frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface color of the second frozen prepared food reaches a second preset color, it indicates that the cooking of the second frozen prepared food is complete and the cooking appliance can stop running.

[0058] In any of the above technical solutions, further, according to the type of food, at least one cooking stage and the cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage are determined, including: when the food type is frozen vegetables, at least one cooking stage is determined to include a thawing stage and a heating stage; the cooking mode corresponding to the thawing stage is the first mode; the cooking mode corresponding to the heating stage is the second mode.

[0059] In this technical solution, for frozen vegetables, it can be determined that the cooking stage of cooking frozen vegetables includes two stages, namely, a thawing stage and a heating stage.

[0060] In the thawing stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the first mode, that is, the frozen vegetables are thawed by microwave heating, so that during the thawing process, the microwaves generated by the microwave device can act on the surface and the inside of the frozen vegetables at the same time, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the thawing process of the frozen vegetables, thereby avoiding uneven heating in the subsequent heating process and affecting the heating effect.

[0061] Furthermore, during the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the second mode, that is, the frozen vegetables are heated by heat pipe heating and steam heating at the same time, so that the high-temperature steam molecules fully enter the food and come into full contact with the food, which quickly heats up the food while maintaining the original color and reducing nutrient loss.

[0062] In any of the above technical solutions, further, when the food type is frozen vegetables, the operation of the cooking appliance is controlled according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode, including: in the thawing stage of the cooking appliance, the microwave power of the microwave device is controlled to be a third preset power; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches a seventh preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a heating stage, and the heat pipe device and the steam device are controlled to operate; when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches an eighth preset temperature, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop operating.

[0063] In this technical solution, for the cooking process of frozen vegetables, in the thawing stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the microwave power of the microwave device. Specifically, when the cooking utensil is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device can be controlled to be maintained at a first preset power. The first preset power can be 30% to 100% of the maximum power of the microwave device. Specifically, it can be set to 60% of the maximum power of the microwave device, which can ensure the heating effect of the microwave heating process, so as to ensure the thawing effect of the frozen vegetables, and can also ensure the uniformity of the thawing process.

[0064] Furthermore, after entering the thawing stage, the surface temperature of the cold frozen vegetables can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the frozen vegetables reaches the seventh preset temperature, it indicates that the thawing process is completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the seventh preset temperature can be 15 degrees Celsius to 35 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the heat pipe device and the steam device of the cooking appliance are controlled to operate simultaneously to ensure the heating effect on the frozen vegetables and ensure the uniformity of the maturity of the inside and the surface of the frozen vegetables.

[0065] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the surface temperature of the cold frozen vegetables can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the frozen vegetables reaches the eighth preset temperature, it indicates that the heating process is completed, that is, the cooking process of the frozen vegetables is completed, and the cooking appliance can stop running. Specifically, the seventh preset temperature can be 95 degrees Celsius to 135 degrees Celsius.

[0066] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a control device for a cooking appliance is provided, wherein the cooking appliance includes a microwave device, a heat pipe device and a steam device, and the control device for the cooking appliance includes: an acquisition unit for acquiring the type of food to be cooked; a determination unit for determining at least one cooking stage and a cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage according to the food type; and determining cooking parameters of each cooking mode according to the food type and the cooking mode; a control unit for controlling the operation of the cooking appliance according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode; wherein the cooking mode includes a first mode, a second mode and a third mode, wherein in the first mode, the microwave device operates, in the second mode, the heat pipe device and the steam device operate, and in the third mode, the heat pipe device operates, and the cooking parameters include the microwave power of the microwave device, the operating power of the heat pipe device, the temperature of the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, the duration of the cooking stage, the surface temperature of the food to be cooked, and the surface chromaticity of the food to be cooked.

[0067] The control device of the cooking utensil provided by the present invention can be applicable to a microwave oven integrated cooking utensil. During the cooking process, according to the type of the food to be cooked, at least one cooking stage required in the cooking process of the food to be cooked and the cooking mode required for each cooking stage can be determined.

[0093] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0094] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0095] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 7 The cooking appliance and its control method, control device and readable storage medium provided according to some embodiments of the present invention are described.

[0096] like Figure 1 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a control method for a cooking appliance is provided, comprising:

[0097] S102, obtaining the type of ingredients to be cooked;

[0098] S104, determining at least one cooking stage and a cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage according to the type of food;

[0099] S106, determining cooking parameters for each cooking mode according to the food type and the cooking mode;

[0100] S108, controlling the operation of the cooking appliance according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode.

[0101] The cooking device includes a microwave device, a heat pipe device and a steam device. The cooking modes include a first mode, a second mode and a third mode. In the first mode, the microwave device operates, in the second mode, the heat pipe device and the steam device operate, and in the third mode, the heat pipe device operates. The cooking parameters include the microwave power of the microwave device, the operating power of the heat pipe device, the temperature of the cooking cavity of the cooking device, the duration of the cooking stage, the surface temperature of the food to be cooked and the surface color of the food to be cooked.

[0102] The control method of the cooking appliance provided by the present invention can be used for a microwave-steam-bake integrated cooking appliance, that is, the cooking appliance can realize three heating methods: microwave heating, steam heating and baking heating. Specifically, the cooking appliance includes a microwave device, a heat pipe device and a steam device. When the microwave device is running, microwave heating of the food to be cooked can be realized. When the heat pipe device is running, baking of the food to be cooked can be realized. When the steam device is running, steam heating of the food can be realized.

[0103] During the cooking process, first, the type of ingredients to be cooked can be obtained. Specifically, the user can actively input the information of the ingredients to be cooked into the cooking appliance. That is, the cooking appliance is provided with an information input module, and the user operates the information input module to input the type of ingredients to be cooked into the cooking appliance. Alternatively, the cooking appliance can also be provided with a camera recognition module, through which the cooking appliance can capture images of the ingredients to be cooked placed in the cooking appliance, thereby determining the type of ingredients to be cooked based on the image information of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0104] Furthermore, after determining the type of the food to be cooked, the cooking appliance can determine at least one cooking stage in the cooking process and a cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage according to the type of the food. That is, according to the type of the food to be cooked, the cooking appliance can determine at least one cooking stage suitable for the type of food, and through at least one cooking stage, the cooking effect of the food to be cooked can be guaranteed to ensure the cooking needs of the user for the food to be cooked.

[0105] Furthermore, the cooking appliance can also determine the cooking mode required for each cooking stage according to the type of ingredients. That is, the heating mode in each cooking stage. Specifically, the cooking mode includes a first mode, a second mode and a third mode, wherein in the first mode, the microwave device operates. That is, in the first mode, microwave heating is used for cooking. In the second mode, the heat pipe device and the steam device operate, that is, in the second mode, the ingredients to be cooked are heated simultaneously by steam heating and baking heating. In the third mode, the heat pipe device operates, that is, in the third mode, the ingredients to be cooked are heated by baking heating. It is understandable that in addition to the above three cooking modes, the cooking appliance may also have other cooking modes, such as a mode in which microwaves and heat pipes operate simultaneously, a mode in which microwaves and steam operate simultaneously, and the like.

[0106] By determining the cooking stages and the cooking modes at each cooking stage, it is possible to ensure that, for different types of ingredients, especially when the ingredients to be cooked are frozen ingredients, the ingredients are heated evenly from a frozen state to a high-temperature state, so as to ensure that the most suitable cooking mode for each stage is used at different stages of cooking, ensure the cooking effect at each cooking stage during the cooking process of the ingredients to be cooked, and further ensure the final cooking effect of the ingredients to be cooked, thereby improving user experience.

[0107] Furthermore, after determining each cooking stage of the food to be cooked and the cooking mode of each cooking stage, the cooking parameters in each cooking mode can also be determined according to the type of food. Specifically, the cooking parameters include the microwave power of the microwave device, the operating power of the heat pipe device, the temperature of the cooking cavity of the cooking utensil, the duration of the cooking stage, the surface temperature of the food to be cooked, and the surface color of the food to be cooked. By determining the cooking parameters, it can be ensured that the food to be cooked is cooked according to the corresponding cooking parameters in each cooking stage. On the basis of ensuring that the cooking mode of each cooking stage is suitable for the food to be cooked, the cooking parameters of the cooking process are further refined to ensure the cooking effect of each cooking stage.

[0108] Specifically, the cooking appliance may include a camera module to identify the color change of the food to be cooked during the heating process through the camera module. The cooking appliance may also include an infrared module, through which the temperature change of the food to be cooked can be sensed during the cooking process.

[0109] Furthermore, after determining the cooking stage, the cooking mode corresponding to each cooking stage, and the cooking parameters corresponding to each cooking mode, the cooking appliance can operate according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking stage and the cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking mode to complete the automatic cooking process of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0110] The control method of the cooking utensil provided by the present invention can be applied to a microwave oven integrated cooking utensil. During the cooking process, according to the type of the food to be cooked, at least one cooking stage required in the cooking process of the food to be cooked and the cooking mode required for each cooking stage can be determined. Furthermore, according to the type of the food to be cooked and the cooking mode of each cooking stage, the cooking parameters in each cooking mode can also be determined. Then, the cooking effect of the food at each cooking stage can be guaranteed according to the type of food, thereby ensuring the final cooking effect of the food to be cooked. Furthermore, after determining the cooking stage and the cooking mode and cooking parameters of each cooking stage, the cooking utensil can cook the food to be cooked according to the cooking mode and cooking parameters corresponding to the cooking stage, thus completing the automatic cooking process of the cooking utensil. The user does not need to operate during the cooking process, thereby improving the automation of the cooking utensil and improving the user experience.

[0111] According to one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 As shown, a control method for a cooking appliance is proposed, comprising:

[0112] S202, obtaining the type of ingredients to be cooked;

[0113] S204, when the food type is frozen meat food, determining at least one cooking stage including a thawing stage, a temperature rising stage, a heating stage, and a coloring stage;

[0114] S206, when the cooking appliance is in the thawing stage, controlling the microwave power of the microwave device to be a first preset power;

[0115] S208, when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the first preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a heating stage, and controls the heat pipe device and the steam device to operate so that the temperature of the cooking cavity is within a first temperature range;

[0116] S210, when the duration of the heating stage reaches a first preset duration, the cooking appliance enters a heating stage, and controls the heat pipe device and the steam device to operate so that the temperature of the cooking cavity is within a second temperature range;

[0117] S212, when the duration of the heating phase reaches a second preset duration, the cooking appliance enters a coloring phase, and controls the heat pipe device to operate so that the temperature of the cooking cavity is within a third temperature range;

[0118] S214: When the duration of the coloring stage reaches a third preset duration, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop running.

[0119] In this embodiment, for frozen meat ingredients, it can be determined that the cooking stage of cooking frozen meat ingredients includes four stages, namely, thawing stage, warming stage, heating stage and coloring stage. Specifically, frozen meat ingredients can include chicken wings, pork belly, fish nuggets, lamb skewers, small crispy meat, etc.

[0120] In the thawing stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the first mode, that is, the frozen meat is frozen by microwave heating, so as to ensure that the microwaves generated by the microwave device can act on the surface and the inside of the frozen meat ingredients at the same time during the thawing process, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the thawing process of the frozen meat ingredients, thereby avoiding uneven heating in the subsequent heating process and affecting the heating effect.

[0121] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the second mode, that is, the frozen meat ingredients are heated by heat pipe heating and steam heating at the same time, so as to ensure that the food is wet-baked and heated after the frozen meat ingredients are thawed, so that the steam molecules fully enter the food and fully contact the food, and the tenderness of the meat is maintained while the temperature inside the food is continuously raised.

[0122] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the second mode, that is, the frozen meat ingredients are heated by heat pipe heating and steam heating at the same time. When the temperature of the cooking chamber reaches a certain level, the steam volume is increased to allow more steam molecules to fully contact the frozen meat ingredients, maintain a higher temperature near the frozen meat ingredients, thereby achieving rapid heating and ensuring the maturity of the ingredients.

[0123] Furthermore, in the coloring stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the food to be cooked is baked by the heat pipe device to achieve uniform coloring on the surface of the food to be cooked, thereby improving the cooking effect of the food to be cooked.

[0124] Specifically, for the cooking process of frozen meat ingredients, in the thawing stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the microwave power of the microwave device. Specifically, when the cooking utensil is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device can be controlled to remain at a first preset power. Among them, the first preset power can be 30% to 100% of the maximum power of the microwave device. Specifically, it can be set to 60% of the maximum power of the microwave device, which can ensure the heating effect of the microwave heating process, so as to ensure the thawing effect of the frozen meat ingredients, and can also ensure the uniformity of the thawing process.

[0125] Furthermore, during the thawing process, the surface temperature of the frozen meat ingredients can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the ingredients to be cooked reaches the first preset temperature, it indicates that the thawing process has been completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the first preset temperature can be 5 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, that is, in the heating stage, the heat pipe device and the steam device of the cooking appliance are controlled to operate simultaneously, and at the same time, the temperature in the cooking cavity is ensured to be in the first temperature range, so that the stable and uniform heating of the ingredients to be cooked can be ensured in the heating stage, so that the steam molecules can fully enter the food and fully contact the food, and the tenderness of the meat is maintained while the temperature of the food is continuously heated. Specifically, the first temperature range can be 150 degrees Celsius to 230 degrees Celsius, that is, in the heating stage, the temperature in the cooking cavity needs to be maintained between 150 degrees Celsius and 230 degrees Celsius.

[0126] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the duration of the heating stage is monitored in real time. When the duration of the heating stage reaches the first preset duration, it indicates that the heating stage is over and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the first preset duration can be 5 minutes to 10 minutes. In the heating stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is also the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, that is, in the heating stage, the heat pipe device and the steam device of the cooking appliance are controlled to operate simultaneously, and at the same time, the temperature in the cooking cavity is ensured to be in the second temperature range, so as to ensure the rapid heating of the ingredients to be cooked, and then ensure the maturity of the ingredients to be cooked. Specifically, the second temperature range can be between 200 degrees Celsius and 250 degrees Celsius. That is, in the heating stage, it is necessary to ensure that the temperature in the cooking cavity is between 200 degrees Celsius and 250 degrees Celsius.

[0127] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the duration of the heating stage is monitored in real time. When the duration of the heating stage reaches the second preset duration, it indicates that the heating stage is over and the cooking appliance can enter the coloring stage. Specifically, the second preset duration can be 5 minutes to 25 minutes. In the coloring stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is also the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance. That is, in the coloring stage, the operation of the heat pipe device of the cooking appliance is controlled, and at the same time, the temperature in the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance is maintained within the third temperature range, so as to achieve uniform coloring of the surface of the cooking ingredients to be cooked by baking. Specifically, the third temperature range can be 200 degrees Celsius to 300 degrees Celsius. That is, in the coloring stage, the temperature in the cooking cavity needs to be maintained between 200 degrees Celsius and 300 degrees Celsius.

[0128] Furthermore, after entering the coloring stage, the duration of the coloring stage is monitored in real time, and when the duration of the coloring stage reaches a third preset duration, it indicates that the coloring stage is over and the cooking process of the food to be cooked is over. Specifically, the third preset duration can be 5 minutes to 25 minutes.

[0129] According to one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 As shown, a control method for a cooking appliance is proposed, comprising:

[0130] S302, obtaining the type of ingredients to be cooked;

[0131] S304, when the food type is the first frozen prepared food, determining at least one cooking stage including a preheating stage, a temperature rising stage, a heating stage, and a coloring stage;

[0132] S306, when the cooking appliance is in a preheating stage, controlling the first top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe to operate;

[0133] S308, when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the second preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a heating stage, and controls the first top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe to operate;

[0134] S310, when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches a third preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a heating stage, and controls the second top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe to operate;

[0135] S312, when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches a fourth preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a coloring stage, and controls the first top heat pipe and the second top heat pipe to operate;

[0136] S314: When the surface chromaticity of the food to be cooked reaches a first preset chromaticity, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop operating.

[0137] In this embodiment, for the first frozen prepared food, it can be determined that the cooking stage of cooking the first frozen prepared food includes four stages, namely, a preheating stage, a temperature rising stage, a heating stage and a coloring stage. Specifically, the first frozen prepared food can be a frozen pizza.

[0138] In the preheating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so that the surface of the first frozen prepared food is slowly warmed up, and at the same time, since the thickness of the first frozen prepared food is small, the inconsistent maturity of the surface and the inside of the first frozen prepared food during the preheating process can be avoided to affect the heating effect.

[0139] Furthermore, in the temperature rising stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so as to ensure that the surface and the interior of the first frozen prepared food are heated at the same time, and the maturity is uniform.

[0140] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so as to ensure that the surface and the interior of the first frozen prepared food are quickly heated at the same time, and the first frozen prepared food is quickly cooked.

[0141] Furthermore, in the coloring stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the food to be cooked is baked by the heat pipe device to achieve uniform coloring on the surface of the food to be cooked, thereby improving the cooking effect of the food to be cooked.

[0142] It is understandable that, in the four cooking stages of the first frozen prepared food, the third mode is used for cooking, but the cooking parameters in the cooking modes of different stages are different, thereby achieving staged heating of the first frozen prepared food to ensure the cooking effect of the first frozen prepared food.

[0143] Specifically, the heat pipe device of the cooking appliance may include a first top heat pipe, a second top heat pipe and a first bottom heat pipe, wherein the heat generated by the first top heat pipe is less than the heat generated by the second top heat pipe.

[0144] Specifically, during the cooking process of the first frozen prepared food, first, the preheating stage is entered. During the preheating stage, the first top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe can be controlled to operate so as to heat the upper surface and the lower surface of the first frozen prepared food at the same time, so as to ensure that the first frozen prepared food is preheated evenly, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the maturity of the first frozen prepared food during the cooking process.

[0145] Furthermore, after entering the preheating stage, the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food reaches the second preset temperature, it indicates that the preheating stage has been completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the second preset temperature can be 20 degrees Celsius to 50 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the first top heat pipe and the second top heat pipe. This allows the first frozen prepared food to be heated quickly.

[0146] Furthermore, after entering the temperature rising stage, the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food reaches the third preset temperature, it indicates that the temperature rising stage has been completed and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the third preset temperature can be 90 degrees Celsius to 100 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the first frozen prepared food is heated by the second top heat pipe and the first bottom heat pipe to ensure the uniformity of the maturity of the first frozen prepared food.

[0147] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the first frozen prepared food reaches a fourth preset temperature, it indicates that the heating stage is completed and the cooking appliance can enter the coloring stage. Specifically, the fourth preset temperature can be 110 degrees Celsius to 130 degrees Celsius. In the coloring stage, the first top heat pipe and the second top heat pipe heat the first frozen prepared food at the same time to achieve uniform coloring of the surface of the first frozen prepared food.

[0148] Furthermore, after entering the coloring stage, the surface color of the first frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface color of the first frozen prepared food reaches a first preset color, it indicates that the cooking of the first frozen prepared food is complete and the cooking appliance can stop running.

[0149] According to one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4As shown, a control method for a cooking appliance is proposed, comprising:

[0150] S402, obtaining the type of ingredients to be cooked;

[0151] S404, when the food type is the second frozen prepared food, determining at least one cooking stage including a thawing stage, a heating stage, and a coloring stage;

[0152] S406, when the cooking appliance is in the thawing stage, controlling the microwave power of the microwave device to a second preset power;

[0153] S408, when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the fifth preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a heating stage, and controls the third top heat pipe and the second bottom heat pipe to operate;

[0154] S410, when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches a sixth preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a coloring stage, and controls the third top heat pipe and the fourth top heat pipe to operate;

[0155] S412: When the surface chromaticity of the food to be cooked reaches a second preset chromaticity, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop running.

[0156] In this embodiment, for the second frozen prepared food, it can be determined that the cooking stage of cooking the second frozen prepared food includes three stages, namely, a thawing stage, a heating stage, and a coloring stage. Specifically, the second frozen prepared food can be frozen European bread or frozen pie.

[0157] Among them, compared with the first frozen pre-prepared food, the thickness of the second frozen pre-prepared food is greater than or equal to the preset thickness, that is, the thickness of the second frozen pre-prepared food is thicker. Therefore, during the heating process, the second frozen pre-prepared food needs to be thawed first, that is, a thawing stage is required. During the thawing stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the first mode. That is, the second frozen pre-prepared food is thawed by the microwave device. In this way, it is ensured that during the thawing process, the microwaves generated by the microwave device can act on the surface and the inside of the second frozen pre-prepared food at the same time, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the thawing process of the second frozen pre-prepared food, thereby avoiding uneven heating in the subsequent heating process and affecting the heating effect.

[0158] Furthermore, in the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the second frozen prepared food is heated by the heat pipe device, so as to ensure that the surface and the inside of the second frozen prepared food are quickly heated at the same time, and the second frozen prepared food is quickly cooked.

[0159] Furthermore, in the coloring stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the third mode, that is, the second frozen prepared food is baked by the heat pipe device to achieve uniform coloring on the surface of the second frozen prepared food and improve the cooking effect of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0160] It is understandable that the third mode is used for cooking during the heating stage and the coloring stage of the second frozen prepared food, but the cooking parameters in the cooking modes of different stages are different, thereby realizing a staged heating and coloring process of the second frozen prepared food to ensure the cooking effect of the second frozen prepared food.

[0161] Specifically, the heat pipe device of the cooking appliance may include a third top heat pipe, a fourth top heat pipe and a second bottom heat pipe, wherein the heat generated by the third top heat pipe is less than the heat generated by the fourth top heat pipe.

[0162] Specifically, during the cooking process of the second frozen prepared food, first, the thawing stage is entered. During the thawing stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the microwave power of the microwave device. Specifically, when the cooking utensil is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device can be controlled to be maintained at a second preset power. The second preset power can be 30% to 100% of the maximum power of the microwave device. Specifically, it can be set to 60% of the maximum power of the microwave device, which can ensure the heating effect of the microwave heating process, so as to ensure the thawing effect of the second frozen prepared food, and can also ensure the uniformity of the thawing process.

[0163] Furthermore, after entering the thawing stage, the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food reaches the fifth preset temperature, it indicates that the thawing stage has been completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the fifth preset temperature can be 5 degrees Celsius to 25 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the second frozen prepared food is heated by the third top heat pipe and the second bottom heat pipe, so as to achieve a rapid heating process of the second frozen prepared food.

[0164] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the second frozen prepared food reaches a sixth preset temperature, it indicates that the heating stage is completed and the cooking appliance can enter the coloring stage. Specifically, the sixth preset temperature can be 75 degrees Celsius to 95 degrees Celsius. In the coloring stage, the second frozen prepared food is heated by the third top heat pipe and the fourth top heat pipe to achieve a uniform coloring process on the surface of the second frozen prepared food.

[0165] Furthermore, after entering the coloring stage, the surface color of the second frozen prepared food can be sensed in real time. When the surface color of the second frozen prepared food reaches a second preset color, it indicates that the cooking of the second frozen prepared food is complete and the cooking appliance can stop running.

[0166] According to one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, a control method for a cooking appliance is proposed, comprising:

[0167] S502, obtaining the type of ingredients to be cooked;

[0168] S504, when the food type is frozen vegetables, determining at least one cooking stage includes a thawing stage and a heating stage;

[0169] S506, in the defrosting stage of the cooking appliance, controlling the microwave power of the microwave device to be a third preset power;

[0170] S508, when the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches the seventh preset temperature, the cooking appliance enters a heating stage, and controls the heat pipe device and the steam device to operate;

[0171] S510: When the surface temperature of the food to be cooked reaches an eighth preset temperature, the cooking appliance is controlled to stop operating.

[0172] In this embodiment, for frozen vegetables, it can be determined that the cooking stage of cooking frozen vegetables includes two stages, namely, a thawing stage and a heating stage. Specifically, the frozen vegetables can include frozen green beans, frozen corn, frozen broccoli, and frozen carrots.

[0173] In the thawing stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the first mode, that is, the frozen vegetables are thawed by microwave heating, so that during the thawing process, the microwaves generated by the microwave device can act on the surface and the inside of the frozen vegetables at the same time, thereby ensuring the uniformity of the thawing process of the frozen vegetables, thereby avoiding uneven heating in the subsequent heating process and affecting the heating effect.

[0174] Furthermore, during the heating stage, the cooking mode can be determined to be the second mode, that is, the frozen vegetables are heated by heat pipe heating and steam heating at the same time, so that the high-temperature steam molecules fully enter the food and come into full contact with the food, which quickly heats up the food while maintaining the original color and reducing nutrient loss.

[0175] Specifically, for the cooking process of frozen vegetables, in the thawing stage, the cooking parameter that needs to be controlled is the microwave power of the microwave device. Specifically, when the cooking utensil is in the thawing stage, the microwave power of the microwave device can be controlled to remain at a first preset power. Among them, the first preset power can be 30% to 100% of the maximum power of the microwave device. Specifically, it can be set to 60% of the maximum power of the microwave device, which can ensure the heating effect of the microwave heating process to ensure the thawing effect of the frozen vegetables, and can also ensure the uniformity of the thawing process.

[0176] Furthermore, after entering the thawing stage, the surface temperature of the cold frozen vegetables can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the frozen vegetables reaches the seventh preset temperature, it indicates that the thawing process is completed, and the cooking appliance can enter the heating stage. Specifically, the seventh preset temperature can be 15 degrees Celsius to 35 degrees Celsius. In the heating stage, the heat pipe device and the steam device of the cooking appliance are controlled to operate simultaneously to ensure the heating effect on the frozen vegetables and ensure the uniformity of the maturity of the inside and the surface of the frozen vegetables.

[0177] Furthermore, after entering the heating stage, the surface temperature of the cold frozen vegetables can be sensed in real time. When the surface temperature of the frozen vegetables reaches the eighth preset temperature, it indicates that the heating process is completed, that is, the cooking process of the frozen vegetables is completed, and the cooking appliance can stop running. Specifically, the seventh preset temperature can be 95 degrees Celsius to 135 degrees Celsius.
