DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0044] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention.

In the absence of further restrictions, the elements defined by the sentence "comprise a ..." do not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the above elements.

[0047] In order to solve the technical problem that the smoke effect of the range hood cannot adapt to the environmental conditions in the related art, an embodiment of the present invention provides a range hood control method. When the range hood of the range hood is started, the smoke inlet assembly is controlled to move to a first set height, the fan assembly is operated at a first gear, and the sensor unit is turned on. When the environmental conditions of the range hood are less affected by cooking, the smoke inlet assembly is at a lower height, and the fan assembly is operated at a first gear with lower power consumption. This can prevent the environmental conditions from deteriorating or slow down the speed of environmental deterioration to a certain extent, and can also save energy consumption of the range hood. During the operation of the range hood, the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly are controlled according to the environmental data detected by the sensor unit. This method of adjusting the environmental conditions by combining the smoke inlet position and the fan working gear can realize the range hood to adaptively adjust the smoke effect according to the environmental conditions, and can ensure that the smoke effect can meet the current environmental conditions, and avoid the environment from being continuously bad and affecting the user experience.

[0048] The range hood control method provided by the present invention can be applied to electronic devices. Figure 1 , is a block diagram of the structure of an electronic device. The electronic device 100 includes a memory 110, a processor 120 and a communication module 130. The memory 110, the processor 120 and the communication module 130 are electrically connected to each other directly or indirectly to achieve data transmission or interaction. For example, these components can be electrically connected to each other through one or more communication buses or signal lines.

[0049] The memory 110 is used to store programs or data. The memory 110 may be, but is not limited to, a random access memory (RAM), a read only memory (ROM), a programmable read-only memory (PROM), an erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM), an electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), etc.

[0050] The processor 120 is used to read / write data or programs stored in the memory 110 and execute corresponding functions.

[0051] The communication module 130 is used to establish a communication connection between the electronic device 100 and other communication terminals through a network, and to send and receive data through the network.

[0052] It should be understood that Figure 1 The structure shown is only a schematic diagram of the structure of the electronic device. The electronic device may also include Figure 1 More or fewer components as shown, or with Figure 1 Different configurations are shown. Figure 1 Each component shown in the figure can be implemented by hardware, software or a combination thereof.

[0053] In some embodiments, the electronic device may be arranged in the range hood to execute the range hood control method provided in the embodiment of the present invention to realize the operation control of the range hood, wherein the operation control includes but is not limited to: controlling the smoking function of the range hood.

[0054] For the range hood, the embodiment of the present invention provides an exemplary structure, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of a range hood provided by an embodiment of the present invention, and the range hood includes a body 11, a stove 12, a suction unit, a sensor unit and a control unit (not shown). The body 11 is provided with an air outlet 111. The stove 12 is arranged on the top surface of the body 11, and the suction unit includes a fan assembly (not shown), an air duct assembly (not shown), a smoke inlet assembly 131 and a lifting assembly (not shown). The smoke inlet assembly 131, the fan assembly, the air duct assembly and the air outlet 111 are connected to each other in sequence. The lifting assembly is used to drive the smoke inlet assembly 131 to extend out of the top surface of the body 11 or to retract inside the body 11. The sensor unit is arranged within the set range of the stove 12 and is used to detect environmental data.

[0055] In the above, the specific structures and implementation methods of the stove 12, the fan assembly, the air duct assembly, the smoke inlet assembly 131 and the lifting assembly can all be referred to the relevant technology, and will not be described in detail here. The control unit can adopt the above electronic device. The setting range of the stove 12 can refer to the range enclosed by the minimum circumscribed rectangle surrounding the stove 12 on the plane where the stove 12 is located, or a rectangular range formed with the minimum circumscribed rectangle as the bottom surface and the set height as the height, wherein the set height can be set according to experience or experiment, for example, 0.5m, but not limited thereto.

[0056] As an example, the sensing unit may include at least one of a temperature sensor and a fume concentration sensor. In the case where the sensing unit includes a temperature sensor, Figure 2 As shown, the temperature sensor 141 can be arranged at the stove 12, and its temperature sensing probe can be located at the center of the stove. In the case where the sensing unit includes an oil smoke concentration sensor, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a local structure of a smoke inlet of a smoke inlet assembly provided by an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4This is a partial structural cross-sectional view of a smoke inlet of a smoke inlet assembly provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The oil smoke concentration sensor 142 can be arranged at the smoke inlet 1311 of the smoke inlet assembly 131. It can be seen that the oil smoke can pass through the two smoke inlets 1311 arranged opposite to each other in the smoke inlet assembly 131, be sucked into the fan assembly, and then be discharged to the outside of the air outlet 111 through the air duct assembly. The direction in which the oil smoke is sucked into the smoke inlet can be seen. Figure 4 The direction indicated by arrow A.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the use state of a range hood provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown. When the user places the kitchenware B on the stove 12 and starts the stove, the smoke inlet assembly 131 is driven by the lifting assembly to extend from the machine body 11 to the top of the machine body 11. At this time, the oil smoke generated by cooking can be sucked into the fan assembly through the smoke inlet 1311 of the smoke inlet assembly 131, and discharged from the air outlet 111 through the air duct assembly.

[0058] The following combination Figure 6 The range hood control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described. Figure 6 is a flow chart of a range hood control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The range hood control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes:

[0059] In step S100, when the cooker is started, the smoke inlet assembly is controlled to move to a first set height, the fan assembly is controlled to operate at a first gear, and the sensor unit is turned on;

[0060] In step S200, during the operation of the cooker, the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working position of the fan assembly are controlled according to the environmental data detected by the sensor unit.

[0061] When the user starts the cooker, the control unit of the range hood can detect the corresponding start-up command. At this time, the control unit will execute step S100, by sending a corresponding command to the lifting assembly, so that the lifting assembly drives the smoke inlet assembly to move to the first set height. At the same time, the fan assembly is controlled to operate at the first gear and the sensor unit is turned on.

[0062] Then, the environmental data of the current environment can be obtained through the sensor unit. After obtaining the environmental data, the control unit will execute step S200 to control the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly according to the environmental data detected by the sensor unit during the operation of the cooker. In this way, the operation of the range hood can be adaptive to the current environmental conditions.

[0063] In some embodiments, the embodiments of the present invention respectively propose different adaptive control schemes for the situations where the sensing units use different devices, which can be divided into the following two types:

[0064] The first one:

[0065] In the case where the sensing unit includes a temperature sensor, in the above step S200, the step of controlling the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly according to the environmental data detected by the sensing unit may include:

[0066] In step S211, when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor is higher than the set temperature threshold, the smoke inlet assembly is controlled to be located at a second set height, and the fan assembly is controlled to operate at a second gear; wherein the second set height is higher than the first set height, and the air volume corresponding to the second gear is greater than the air volume corresponding to the first gear.

[0067] It is understandable that during the operation of the stove, the temperature at the stove will generally increase, and accordingly, the oil smoke will also increase. Therefore, when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor is higher than the set temperature threshold, it can be considered that the oil smoke at this time is also relatively serious. At this time, the control unit can execute step S211 to control the smoke inlet assembly to be located at a second set height higher than the first set height to better absorb the oil smoke in the air, and at the same time control the fan assembly to operate at a second gear with a larger air volume than the first gear, so that the oil smoke can be sucked into the smoke inlet assembly faster and discharged to the outside. Therefore, this method of combining the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the gear of the fan assembly to absorb oil smoke can effectively improve the efficiency of oil smoke removal, have a better smoking effect, and can make the environment restore comfort faster, thereby improving user experience.

[0068] When the oil smoke is reduced, in order to avoid unnecessary energy waste caused by continuous use of higher power for operation, in some embodiments, based on the first adaptive control scheme, in the above step S200, the step of controlling the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly according to the environmental data detected by the sensor unit may also include:

[0069] In step S212, when the temperature detected by the temperature sensor is not higher than the set temperature threshold, the smoke inlet assembly is controlled to be located at a first set height, and the fan assembly is controlled to operate at a first gear.

[0070] It is understandable that if during the operation of the cooker, the temperature detected by the temperature sensor from the start of the operation of the cooker to the current temperature has not been higher than the set temperature threshold, the control unit will keep the smoke inlet assembly at the first set height and keep the fan assembly running at the first gear. If during the operation of the cooker, the temperature detected by the temperature sensor has never risen above the set temperature threshold and has never risen above the set temperature threshold, the above step S211 will be executed, and then if the temperature detected by the temperature sensor drops back to not being higher than the set temperature threshold, the control unit will control the smoke inlet assembly to drop from the second set height to the first set height, and control the fan assembly to switch from the second gear to the first gear.

[0071] In this way, it is possible to reduce the overall power consumption of the range hood while maintaining the improvement of environmental conditions while reducing oil smoke.

[0072] Second type:

[0073] In the case where the sensing unit includes a fume concentration sensor, in the above step S200, the step of controlling the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly according to the environmental data detected by the sensing unit can be adaptively adjusted to include:

[0074] In step S221, when the oil fume concentration detected by the oil fume concentration sensor is higher than the set concentration threshold, the smoke inlet assembly is controlled to be located at a second set height, and the fan assembly is controlled to operate at a second gear; wherein the second set height is higher than the first set height, and the air volume corresponding to the second gear is greater than the air volume corresponding to the first gear.

[0075] It is understandable that when the oil fume concentration detected by the oil fume concentration sensor is higher than the set concentration threshold, it can be considered that the oil fume at this time is more serious. At this time, the control unit can execute step S221 to control the smoke inlet assembly to be located at a second set height higher than the first set height to better absorb the oil fume in the air, and at the same time control the fan assembly to operate at a second gear with a wind volume greater than the first power gear, so that the oil fume can be sucked into the smoke inlet assembly faster and discharged to the outside. Therefore, this method of absorbing oil fume by combining the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the gear position of the fan assembly can effectively improve the efficiency of oil fume removal, have a better smoking effect, can make the environment restore comfort faster, and improve user experience.

[0076] When the oil smoke is reduced, in order to avoid unnecessary energy waste caused by continuous use of higher power for operation, in some embodiments, based on the second adaptive control scheme, in the above step S200, the step of controlling the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly according to the environmental data detected by the sensor unit may also include:

[0077] In step S222, when the oil fume concentration detected by the oil fume concentration sensor is not higher than the set concentration threshold, the smoke inlet assembly is controlled to be located at a first set height, and the fan assembly is controlled to operate at a first gear.

[0078] It is understandable that if during the operation of the cooker, the oil fume concentration sensor has not detected oil fume concentration higher than the set concentration threshold value from the start of the operation of the cooker to the current detection, the control unit will keep the control of the smoke inlet assembly at the first set height and keep the fan assembly running at the first gear. If during the operation of the cooker, the concentration detected by the oil fume concentration sensor has never risen above the set concentration threshold and has never risen above the set concentration threshold, the above step S221 will be executed, and then if the concentration detected by the oil fume concentration sensor drops back to not being higher than the set concentration threshold, the control unit will control the smoke inlet assembly to drop from the second set height to the first set height, and control the fan assembly to switch from the second gear to the first gear.

[0079] In this way, it is possible to reduce the overall power consumption of the range hood while maintaining the improvement of environmental conditions while reducing oil smoke.

[0080] In the above, the first set height, the second set height, the set temperature threshold and the set concentration threshold can all be set according to actual needs or experience, wherein the first set height and the second set height can refer to the height of the smoke inlet of the smoke inlet assembly relative to the top surface of the range hood body. As an example, the first set height can be taken in the interval [5cm, 15cm), for example, it can be 5cm, or 8cm, or 11cm, or 14cm, but not limited to this; the second set height can be taken in the interval [15cm, 25cm], for example, it can be 15cm, or 18cm, or 21cm, or 24cm, but not limited to this; the set temperature threshold can be 28°C, and the set concentration threshold can be 2.0mg / m 3 , but not limited to this.

[0081] Based on any of the above embodiments, in order to further reduce the overall energy consumption of the range hood, in some embodiments, the step of controlling the fan assembly to operate at the second gear may include:

[0082] In step S230, the fan assembly is controlled to run continuously at the second gear for a set time period, and the sensor unit is turned off.

[0083] It is understandable that when the fan assembly is controlled to start running at the second gear, in order to achieve a good oil suction effect and reduce the overall power consumption of the range hood, the sensor unit can be turned off and the fan assembly can be controlled to continue running at the second gear for a set time. The set time can be set according to actual needs or experience, and as an example, it can be three minutes, but is not limited thereto.

[0084] From the previous embodiment, it can be seen that the sensor unit is in a closed state when the fan assembly starts to run at the second gear, and the fan assembly runs at the second gear for three minutes. After these three minutes, the fan assembly can be turned off or switched to the first gear. However, in this way, if the subsequent oil smoke concentration is greater than the set concentration threshold, the range hood will fail to continue adaptive control due to the closure of the sensor, which may easily lead to a deterioration of the environment. Therefore, in order to solve this technical problem, in some embodiments, the range hood control method provided by the embodiment of the present invention may also include:

[0085] In step S300, after the fan assembly continuously runs at the second gear for a set time, the sensor unit is turned on, and the process returns to the step of controlling the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly according to the environmental data detected by the sensor unit.

[0086] It can be seen that after the fan assembly has been running continuously at the second gear for a set period of time, the sensor unit can be turned on again to continue collecting environmental data using the sensor unit, so as to control the height of the smoke inlet assembly and the working gear of the fan assembly according to the current environmental data. This can not only ensure that the overall energy consumption of the range hood is reduced to a certain extent, but also ensure that the range hood can effectively detect environmental data and perform adaptive work, and can work effectively according to the current environmental conditions, improve the smoking effect and smoking effectiveness, and better improve the user experience.

[0087] It is worth noting that the technical features or technical solutions in any of the above embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other as long as there is no combination contradiction.

[0088] In order to execute the corresponding steps in the above embodiments and various possible methods, a method for implementing a range hood control device is provided below.
