[0022] See also Figure 1 The present invention provides an intelligent control method, which can be applied to a curling device and is used to adjust the curling temperature according to the hair quality state and humidity information. The intelligent control method includes S110-S130.

[0023] S110: If it is detected that the hair curling device is started, the current operation mode of the hair curling device is obtained.

[0024] In an embodiment of the present invention, the curling device may include a humidity monitoring module, an image recognition module, a molecular atomization module, a timing module, a storage module, a voice module, a control module and other modules commonly used in the art, such as a display module and a heating module.

[0025] The humidity monitoring module is mainly used to monitor the humidity of the hair to obtain humidity information, and may include a humidity sensor, which is arranged on the hair curling device and is used to detect the humidity of the hair clamped by the hair curling device to obtain humidity information.

[0026] The image recognition module is used to obtain image information of the hair, and may include a camera, which is arranged on the hair curling device and is used to capture the image of the hair clamped by the hair curling device to generate image information.

[0027] The molecular atomization module stores plant essential oils for repairing damaged hair, and can release the plant essential oils during the curling process.

[0028] The timing module is mainly used to provide a timing function, and users can customize the curling time of the curling device.

[0029] The storage module mainly stores the model information of the hair, so as to facilitate the identification of the hair quality.

[0030] The voice module is mainly used to play prompt information and receive user's voice commands. The user can control the curling device through voice commands.

[0031] The control module is mainly used to control the normal operation of the curling equipment.

[0032] When it is detected that the curling device is started, the operation mode of the curling device is obtained. The curling device may include three operation modes, namely, traditional mode, intelligent recognition mode and maintenance mode. In the traditional mode, the curling device provides basic curling functions and has multiple gears preset. Different gears correspond to different curling temperatures. The user can switch through the gear switch button set on the curling device, or control it through the touch screen on the curling device.

[0033] The intelligent recognition mode means that the curling device can automatically identify the hair quality and humidity of the hair, and adjust the curling temperature according to the hair quality and humidity to adapt to different hair qualities and humidity.

[0034] The maintenance mode can maintain the hair through the molecular atomization module to repair damaged hair.

[0035] S120: If the current operation mode of the hair curling device is the intelligent recognition mode, then obtaining the humidity information of the hair and the image information of the hair.

[0036] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the operation mode of the hair curling device is the intelligent recognition mode, the humidity information of the hair and the image information of the hair are obtained. The humidity information can be obtained by the humidity monitoring module. When the user uses the hair curling device, the user needs to wrap the hair around the hairpin of the hair curling device. At this time, the humidity information of the wrapped hair can be obtained through the humidity monitoring module. At the same time, the image information of the wrapped hair can also be obtained through the image recognition module, which is convenient for analyzing the hair quality status.

[0037] S130, confirming the hair quality state of the hair based on the image information, and adjusting the curling temperature of the curling device according to the hair quality state and the humidity information.

[0038] In an embodiment of the present invention, after the image information is acquired, the hair quality state of the hair is confirmed based on the image information. The storage module may store images of different hair qualities, and then the hair quality state is graded according to the degree of damage of the hair. For example, the hair quality state may be graded into slightly damaged, moderately damaged, and severely damaged. It is understandable that the hair quality state is not limited to the above three grades, and a more detailed division may be performed based on the number of stored images. After the hair quality state is confirmed, the curling temperature of the curling device is adjusted according to the hair quality state and humidity information, so that the curling temperature is adapted to the current hair quality and humidity to avoid damage to the hair.

[0039] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, such as in the present embodiment, the step S130 may include steps S131-S133.

[0040] S131, determining a temperature adjustment coefficient according to the hair quality state;

[0041] S132, confirming temperature adjustment parameters according to the humidity information;

[0042] S133, substituting the temperature adjustment coefficient and the temperature adjustment variable into a preset temperature adjustment formula to calculate the curling temperature.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present invention, the hair quality state is used to confirm the temperature adjustment coefficient, the humidity information is used to confirm the humidity parameter, and the temperature adjustment coefficient and the humidity parameter are substituted into the preset temperature adjustment formula to obtain the curling temperature. The preset temperature adjustment formula may be Y1=K1X1+B1, where Y1 is the curling temperature, K1 is the temperature adjustment coefficient, X1 is the temperature adjustment variable, and B1 is the temperature constant.

[0044] See also Figure 3 In some embodiments, such as in the present embodiment, the step S131 may include steps S1311-S1314.

[0045] S1311, determining the degree of hair damage according to the hair quality state, wherein the degree of hair damage includes slight damage, moderate damage, and severe damage;

[0046] S1312, if the damage degree of the hair quality state is the slight damage, confirming a first preset temperature adjustment coefficient corresponding to the slight damage;

[0047] S1313, if the damage degree of the hair quality state is the medium damage, confirming a second preset temperature adjustment coefficient corresponding to the slight damage;

[0048] S1314: If the damage degree of the hair quality state is the severe damage, confirm the third preset temperature adjustment coefficient corresponding to the slight damage.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present invention, the hair quality can be pre-classified into a plurality of different grades according to the degree of damage of the hair quality, for example, slightly damaged, moderately damaged and severely damaged. In addition to the above-mentioned classification method, the hair quality can also be classified into the first grade, the second grade, the third grade, the fourth grade and the fifth grade, and the hair quality of the first grade has the lightest degree of damage, and the hair quality of the fifth grade has the heaviest degree of damage, that is, the degree of damage of the hair quality gradually increases from the first grade to the fifth grade.

[0050] After the hair quality level is divided, a matching coefficient is defined for each hair quality level, that is, the temperature adjustment coefficient. The temperature adjustment coefficient is an empirical value and can be obtained through multiple experiments. For example, the hair quality levels include slight damage, moderate damage and severe damage. Then, the slight damage can be matched with the first preset temperature adjustment coefficient, the moderate damage can be matched with the second preset temperature adjustment coefficient, and the severe damage can be matched with the third preset temperature adjustment coefficient. The first preset temperature adjustment coefficient, the second preset temperature adjustment coefficient and the third preset temperature adjustment coefficient are all decimals greater than zero and less than one, that is, if k is the temperature adjustment coefficient, 0<k<1. Taking the first preset temperature adjustment coefficient as 0.9, the second preset temperature adjustment coefficient as 0.7, and the third preset temperature adjustment coefficient as 0.5 as an example, if the hair quality state is slightly damaged, the temperature adjustment coefficient of the hair wrapped by the curling device is 0.9, and substituting it into the preset temperature adjustment formula, it can be obtained that Y1=0.9X1+B1. It can be understood that the more serious the degree of hair damage, the lower the temperature adjustment coefficient.

[0051] See also Figure 4 In some embodiments, such as in this embodiment, step S132 may include steps S1321-S1322.

[0052] S1321, confirming a temperature adjustment variable according to the humidity information, and confirming a preset humidity range corresponding to the humidity information according to the humidity information;

[0053] S1322: confirming a preset temperature peak value corresponding to the preset humidity interval according to the preset humidity interval.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present invention, a preset humidity interval can be set in advance, and the preset humidity interval can be divided into multiple intervals according to the humidity percentage. For example, humidity 0%-10% is the first interval, humidity 10%-20% is the second interval, humidity 20%-30% is the third interval, and so on. Humidity 90%-100% is the tenth interval. After obtaining the humidity information, it can be confirmed that the preset humidity interval to which the humidity information belongs can be confirmed, and the temperature control variable can also be obtained. It can be understood that the humidity information and the temperature control variable here refer to the same parameter. For example, if the humidity information obtained is 58%, the temperature control variable is also 58%.

[0055] For each interval, a preset temperature peak value may also be set, which refers to the peak curling temperature of the corresponding interval. For example, the preset temperature peak value of the first interval may be 180°C. When the humidity information is in the first interval, the upper limit of the curling temperature is 180°C to avoid damage to the hair due to excessive temperature. The corresponding preset temperature peak value of the second interval may be 185°C, the preset temperature peak value of the third interval may be 190°C, and the preset temperature peak value of the tenth interval may be 225°C.

[0056] To illustrate with a specific example, if the hair quality grade of a certain hair is slightly damaged, and the first preset temperature adjustment coefficient is 0.9, and the humidity information of the hair is 18%, corresponding to the second interval, the preset peak temperature of the interval is 185°C, then the above parameters are substituted into the preset temperature adjustment formula to obtain Y1=0.9*18+B1, and the B1 temperature parameter is the 0-point value of the temperature gear, which is a constant and an empirical value, and can be set at the factory. For example, B1 can be 20, then Y1=182°C, 182°C is less than the preset peak temperature of 185°C, then the curling temperature of the curling device can be adjusted to 182°C, and if the temperature of Y1 is greater than the preset peak temperature, then the curling temperature of the curling device is adjusted to a temperature consistent with the preset peak temperature.

[0057] See also Figure 5 In some embodiments, such as in the present embodiment, the method may include steps S140-S150.

[0058] S140, if the current operation mode of the hair curling device is a maintenance mode, confirming the hair quality state;

[0059] S150, determining the maintenance degree of the hair curling device according to the hair quality state and maintaining the hair based on the maintenance degree.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present invention, the maintenance mode is mainly used to maintain the hair, which can be specifically maintained by the molecular atomization module. In the maintenance mode, the hair quality state is confirmed by image information, and then the maintenance degree is confirmed based on the hair quality state. The maintenance degree refers to the atomization degree of the molecular atomization module, and the atomization degree can be from 0% to 100%. When the atomization degree is 0%, it indicates that no maintenance is required. When the atomization degree is 100%, it indicates that the molecular atomization module is in a fully atomized state.

[0061] See also Figure 6 In some embodiments, such as in this embodiment, step S150 may include steps S151-S152.

[0062] S151, confirming maintenance variables according to the hair quality status;

[0063] S152, substituting the maintenance variable into a preset maintenance formula to calculate the maintenance degree.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present invention, the preset maintenance formula is Y2=K2X2+B2, wherein Y2 is the maintenance degree, 0<Y2≤100%, K2 is the maintenance coefficient and K2<0, X2 is the maintenance variable and X2≥0, B2 is the maintenance constant, 0<B2≤100%. K2 and B2 are both empirical values ​​and can be obtained through experimental data, for example, K2=-1, b2=40%, then Y2=-X2+40%.

[0065] For the hair quality state, the hair quality state can be quantified to obtain the maintenance variable. For example, the hair quality state can be divided into the first damage degree, the second damage degree, and so on until the Nth damage degree. The first damage degree is quantified as 1, the second damage degree is quantified as 2, and the Nth damage degree is quantified as N. After the damage degree of the hair quality is confirmed, the maintenance variable can be confirmed. For example, if the damage degree corresponding to the hair quality state is the second damage degree, the maintenance variable is 2. Substituting 2 into the preset maintenance formula Y2=-X2+40%, it can be obtained that Y2=38%, that is, the atomization degree of the molecular atomization module can be turned on by 38%. It can be understood that the hair quality state can be classified into different damage degrees through image recognition.

[0066] In some embodiments, such as the present embodiment, the method may further include the following steps: if the current operating mode of the curling device is the traditional mode, switching the gear according to the gear adjustment instruction of the user.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present invention, in the traditional mode, the curling device is preset with multiple gears, and the user can manually switch to the corresponding preset gear to manually adjust the gear. In addition, the user can also control the gear of the curling device through the voice module. For example, taking the peak temperature of the curling temperature as 200°C as an example, the curling temperature of the curling device can be controlled by percentage. For example, the user can control the curling device through voice instructions such as "adjust the temperature to 60%", and the curling device will adjust the curling temperature to 120°C. Alternatively, the curling device can preset multiple gears in advance, and the user controls the curling device through voice instructions such as "adjust the temperature to X gear", and X gear refers to the gear preset in advance by the curling device. At the same time, voice control can also include commonly used voice control functions such as timing control and volume adjustment.

[0068] The present invention also provides a hair curling device, wherein the hair dryer comprises the intelligent control method described in any one of the above embodiments.

[0069] Specifically, the curling device may include a humidity monitoring module, an image recognition module, a molecular atomization module, a timing module, a storage module, a voice module, a control module, and other modules commonly used in the art, such as a display module and a heating module.

[0070] The humidity monitoring module is mainly used to monitor the humidity of the hair to obtain humidity information, and may include a humidity sensor, which is arranged on the hair curling device and is used to detect the humidity of the hair clamped by the hair curling device to obtain humidity information.

[0071] The image recognition module is used to obtain image information of the hair, and may include a camera, which is arranged on the hair curling device and is used to capture the image of the hair clamped by the hair curling device to generate image information.

[0072] The molecular atomization module stores plant essential oils for repairing damaged hair, and can release the plant essential oils during the curling process.

[0073] The timing module is mainly used to provide a timing function, and users can customize the curling time of the curling device.
