Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of catering equipment, and more particularly to an intelligently controlled buffet stove. Background Art

[0002] At present, the existing buffet furnaces are relatively mature in the field of food heating and insulation, but there is still a lot of room for improvement in the two aspects of tableware management and intelligent temperature control, and they urgently need further improvement and perfection.

[0003] As far as tableware management is concerned, traditional buffet stoves generally lack dedicated areas for placing food tongs or spoons and other food-taking tools. This lack results in that in actual dining scenarios, food tongs, spoons and other food-taking tools are often placed randomly on the dining table. This chaotic placement not only affects the dining environment, making the entire dining atmosphere appear messy, but also causes health hazards. Due to the lack of a reasonable placement, the risk of cross-contamination between tableware and dishes increases, posing a potential threat to the health of diners. In addition, during the use of traditional buffet stoves, there is no corresponding monitoring mechanism for whether food tongs, spoons and other food-taking tools are classified. This makes it difficult for staff to detect the usage status of tableware at the first time, and it is impossible to manage and maintain the tableware in a timely manner.

[0004] At the same time, in terms of temperature control, most buffet furnaces still rely on relatively backward manual adjustment methods. This traditional adjustment method lacks the characteristics of intelligence and automation, and it is difficult to adapt to the rapid development of the modern catering industry and the demand for efficient and precise management. In actual operation, manual adjustment is often difficult to accurately control the temperature, and it is easy to have too high or too low temperatures. Too high a temperature causes the food to be overheated or even dried out, losing its original taste and nutrients; while too low a temperature cannot effectively keep the food warm, affecting the diners' dining experience. And when there are many devices, manual adjustment requires staff to constantly patrol and operate manually, which undoubtedly consumes a lot of manpower and time costs, reducing the overall efficiency of restaurant operations.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0020] like Figure 1-4As shown, the present invention provides an intelligent control buffet stove, comprising a stove body 1, a food basin 2, and a dish shelf 3. The stove body 1 is made of stainless steel and has good heat preservation and heat resistance. The stove body 1 is spatially divided into a food area and a tableware area. The food basin 2 is installed in the food area of ​​the stove body 1, and the dish shelf 3 is installed in the tableware area of ​​the stove body 1. A concave access groove 4 is provided on the dish shelf 3. The access groove 4 is used to accommodate meal tools, providing an exclusive placement space for meal tools such as dish clips or spoons. like Figure 4 As shown, the dining stove body 1 is equipped with a controller 5, a heating mechanism, a position detection mechanism 9, and a communication module. The heating mechanism is used to control the temperature of the food bowl 2, and cooperates with the temperature control program on the controller 5 to realize the start and stop control of the heater 13 inside the dining stove body 1, thereby realizing precise temperature control of the food bowl 2.

[0021] The position detection mechanism 9 is used to detect whether there is a meal-taking tool in the plate-holding slot 3, and can also output a status indication, including through an indication unit set on the dining stove body 1 or other surrounding equipment, such as a status indicator light, etc., to prompt whether the meal-taking tool is in place, or through a communication module, it is sent to the communication device of the staff, so that the staff can be informed of the presence of the meal-taking tool of the buffet stove in a timely manner.

[0022] The communication module is used for remote information transmission, receiving information from other systems to achieve remote management and control, and remote temperature adjustment. In actual use, the third-party system uses the communication unit to send instructions to the controller 5 to adjust the temperature of the dining furnace through remote communication across space. According to the flow of customers, the frequency of taking dishes and the peak hours of the restaurant, the third-party system can remotely increase the temperature of the dining furnace to ensure the heat preservation of the dishes; during non-peak hours, it sends a heat-off instruction to save energy.

[0023] The controller 5 is used to control and process all data of the buffet stove. The controller 5 of the present invention does not specifically refer to a single or separate device, but refers to a data control processing unit, including an independent control unit of the heating mechanism and an independent control unit of the position detection mechanism 9, and can also be a control unit of all electrical control mechanisms. Specifically, it is used to configure and set parameters for the heating mechanism, the position detection mechanism 9, and the communication module, including the start and stop control, working time control, and temperature display of the heating mechanism, the notification condition setting and status indication mode setting of the position detection mechanism 9, the data transmission parameter setting of the communication module, etc., and has the control and processing capabilities of all data and the control and processing of all electrical components.

[0024] The working principle and technical advantages of the intelligent control buffet stove of the present invention are: The dining stove body 1 is divided into functional areas, so that the food area and the tableware area can exist independently. At the same time, a food basin 2 is provided in the food area for holding dishes, and a plate shelf 3 is provided in the tableware area for accommodating meal tools, which effectively solves the problem of random placement of meal tools and improves the cleanliness and hygiene of the dining environment. At the same time, a concave access groove 4 is provided in the plate shelf 3, which can stably place the sampling tools and is convenient for users to take; A position detection mechanism 9 is provided in the dining stove body 1, which can detect whether there is a meal-taking tool in the plate-holding slot 3. The position detection mechanism 9 can be used in conjunction with the controller 5 and the communication module to realize remote monitoring of the status of the meal-taking tool, so that the staff can know the use of the meal-taking tool in time, thereby conveniently carrying out maintenance and management work to ensure that the dining stove is in good operating condition.

[0025] A heating mechanism is also provided to heat the food bowl 2, thereby achieving heat preservation and heating of the food. Combined with the data control and processing function of the controller 5, intelligent temperature control can be achieved. According to the characteristics of the food, a personalized temperature management mode can be set, and flexible temperature management can be performed on different food.

[0026] It is also possible to realize remote data transmission through the cooperation of the controller 5 and the communication module, and to carry out remote data transmission with a third-party device to realize remote control of the buffet stove.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, as an embodiment of the dish shelf slot 3 in the present invention, the dish shelf slot 3 is further provided with a mounting frame 6, and the mounting frame 6 is used to be mounted and connected with the dining stove body 1 in the tableware area, and the notch of the access groove 4 is connected to the inner edge of the mounting frame 6, and the dish shelf slot 3 also includes a limiting fixing frame 7, and the limiting fixing frame 7 is installed below the outer edge of the mounting frame 6. The limiting fixing frame 7 is used to limit the dish shelf slot 3 after the dish shelf slot 3 and the dining stove body 1 are installed, thereby realizing a stable connection between the dish shelf slot 3 and the dining stove body 1.

[0028] Specifically, the access groove 4 includes a corresponding fixedly connected groove inclined plate, a groove bottom plate, a limit plate and two groove side plates. The groove inclined plate is located on the front side of the groove bottom plate, and the front angle between the top surface of the groove bottom plate and the top surface of the groove inclined plate is an obtuse angle. The limit plate is located on the rear side of the groove bottom plate, and the two groove side plates are respectively located on the left and right sides of the groove bottom plate, so that the access groove 4 has a front inclined opening, which is convenient for the actual user to take the meal picking tools. At the same time, it can well remind the user that the access groove 4 is specially used for holding meal picking tools, which is convenient for the actual management of tableware.

[0029] More specifically, Figure 2As shown, a detection through hole 8 is provided through the dish shelf slot 3 at a position corresponding to the access groove 4. The position of the active end of the position detection mechanism 9 matches the position of the detection through hole 8. Therefore, the active end of the position detection mechanism 9 generally refers to an infrared receiving and transmitting device, which can cover the entire slot range of the access groove 4. When the meal-taking tool is in place, the infrared signal will be blocked to obtain the detection result. The position detection mechanism 9 is electrically connected to the controller 5. The controller 5 is used to receive and process the signal sent by the position detection mechanism 9 whether there is a meal-taking tool in the dish shelf slot 3.

[0030] Furthermore, the position detection mechanism 9 can be an infrared device, including two detection mounting bars and several groups of infrared transceiver devices. For example, the two detection mounting bars are respectively arranged on the inner side of the side panel 11 of the dining stove body 1 and on the side of the bottom of the partition mounting bar facing the tableware area, and then infrared transmitters or infrared receivers are neatly arranged and installed on the detection mounting bars, so that the transmitter and receiver of each group of infrared transceiver devices can correspond to each other in position, and their transmission lines pass through the detection through hole 8. When the position detection mechanism 9 is working, if the signal transmission and reception paths of any one or more groups of infrared transceiver devices are blocked, it means that the meal picking tool is in the storage and access groove 4 and the meal picking tool is in place. If all the infrared transceiver devices can complete the transmission and reception, it means that the meal picking tool is not in the storage and access groove 4. At this time, a meal picking tool not in place signal can be sent to the controller 5 or other status prompter, etc., to prompt the current meal picking tool status of the dining stove.

[0031] As an embodiment of the present invention, the controller 5 is configured with dish information, which includes the dish name and the corresponding heating parameters. The controller 5 is used to control the start and stop of the heater 13 according to the dish information and the temperature signal. In layman's terms, it is to enter the menu, and set the parameters such as heating time, heating temperature, when to heat, and when to stop for each dish on the menu. When actually heating, the staff only needs to find the corresponding dish on the menu and confirm it, and the controller 5 can complete the automatic setting of the temperature and time parameters of the dish, so that the work intensity and difficulty of the staff are reduced.

[0032] As an embodiment of the present invention, an alarm strategy is configured in the controller 5, and the alarm strategy includes an alarm triggering condition and a corresponding alarm prompting method. The controller 5 processes all received electrical signals according to the alarm strategy, and performs an alarm operation according to the corresponding alarm prompting method when the electrical signal reaches the alarm triggering condition. For example, the alarm triggering condition is set to: the meal-taking tool is not in place for more than 1 minute, and the corresponding alarm prompting method is: using an alarm to indicate, or the display screen of the controller 5 flashes, or sending a prompt message to the staff's mobile phone through the communication module, etc. The alarm strategy can be flexibly adjusted according to actual usage.

[0033] Regarding the actual application and implementation of the alarm strategy, an alarm mechanism can be set in the dining stove body, and the alarm mechanism is electrically connected to the controller 5. The alarm mechanism can be directly set as an alarm, and used in conjunction with the alarm strategy, for example, a flashing red light is used as an alarm, which is set next to the buffet stove to remind the staff to notice that the meal picking tool is not in place, so that they can deal with the situation that the dish clip of the current dish is not in the tableware area.

[0034] There are various alarm prompt modes, including sound, display, sending information, and parameters such as alarm duration can also be set in the alarm prompt mode.

[0035] The alarm strategy can be configured through the controller 5, or it can be set by connecting to a third-party remote device through the communication module.

[0036] As an embodiment of the present invention, the controller 5 includes electrically connected control buttons, a display screen, a processor and a memory. The controller 5 can be separately set up for each functional mechanism, or it can be integrated and used as one controller 5. The controller 5 can also be provided with an expansion interface for an external computer to operate.

[0037] In the present invention, the hardware of the controller 5 mainly includes a display for displaying the temperature of the food, a control button for selecting the food type or setting the target temperature, a memory for storing various control strategies, and a processor for executing the control strategy. In this case, the controller 5 can be directly integrated and installed on the side of the side panel 11 to facilitate the operation of the staff.

[0038] The memory of the controller 5 can store the time and target temperature of each meal of the buffet, and can be input through the control case or a remotely connected third-party system. Different requirements are set for the heating time and target temperature according to different seasons and usage conditions. When the meal time is reached, the controller 5 automatically starts heating according to the rules, and stops automatically when the heating reaches the target temperature. When the temperature is lower than the target temperature by a certain range, the heating is restarted until the meal is finished.

[0039] The controller 5 can also be connected to an external control panel, and control information can be input through buttons on the external control panel.

[0040] In the present invention, the autonomous temperature control of the dining furnace can be realized through the cooperation of the controller 5, the heating mechanism, the position detection mechanism 9, and the communication module, that is, the target heating temperature and duration and other parameters can be set by the controller 5, so that the heating mechanism can be autonomously controlled to form continuous temperature detection feedback, ensure continuous temperature management, and provide a heat preservation environment for dishes efficiently and reliably. Remote third-party temperature control can also be realized, and the communication unit can be used to send instructions to the controller 5 across space to adjust the temperature of the dining furnace.

[0041] As an embodiment of the dining stove body 1 of the present invention, the dining stove body 1 includes a dining stove bottom plate 10, a side panel 11, and a dividing installation strip 12. The bottom end of the side panel 11 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the dining stove bottom plate. The dividing installation strip 12 divides the space of the dining stove body 1 into a food area and a tableware area. The food basin 2 and the plate shelf groove 3 are respectively installed at the top of the side panel 11 and the top of the dividing installation strip 12. At the same time, the dividing installation strip 12 also serves to increase the stability of the structure and strengthen the strength of the dining stove body 1.

[0042] like Figure 3 As shown, the heating mechanism includes a heater 13 and a temperature probe 14. The heater 13 and the temperature probe 14 are installed on the top surface of the dining furnace bottom plate 10 corresponding to the food area. The heater 13 is used to heat the food basin 2, and the temperature probe 14 is used to sense the temperature of the food basin 2. The controller 5 is used to control the start and stop of the heater 13 and receive and process the temperature signal sent by the temperature probe 14. The controller 5 receives the temperature data sent back by the temperature probe 14 and can transmit it to other devices or systems through the communication module. Other devices or systems can remotely send commands to the controller 5, and the controller 5 receives the temperature information sent back and achieves the temperature control goal by controlling the start and stop of the heater 13.

[0043] As an embodiment of the food bowl 2 of the present invention, the food bowl 2 includes a water basin 15 and a portion basin 16. The bottom of the edge of the top of the water basin 15 is installed at the position corresponding to the food area at the top of the side panel 11 and the top of the dividing mounting strip 12. The heater 13 is used to heat the water basin 15. The temperature probe 14 is used to sense the temperature of the water basin 15. The edge of the top of the portion basin 16 is placed on the top of the edge of the top of the water basin 15. The portion basin 16 is placed in the water basin 15. A plate-type heater 13 is placed at the bottom of the water basin 15. The heater 13 is powered by a power supply and can continuously heat the water in the water basin 15. The water in the water basin 15 is used to heat and heat the food in the portion basin 16 through steam heat conduction to maintain the temperature of the food in the portion basin 16.

[0044] Specifically, a plurality of elastic support rods are connected between the heater 13 and the top surface of the dining stove bottom plate 10, and the elastic support rods are used to press the heating plate against the bottom of the water basin 15. In actual use, after the water basin 15 is installed, the elastic support rods will be compressed, and at the same time, the top surface of the heater 13 will be attached to the bottom of the water basin 15 under the elastic support of the elastic support rods. During the operation of the contact heat-conducting heating component such as the heater 13, the closer the heater 13 fits the water basin 15, the better the heating and heat-conducting effect can be achieved. At the same time, since the elastic support rods can be retracted, the dining stove body 1 can heat the water basins 15 of different depths and sizes, so that it can adapt to portion basins 16 of different depths, which is convenient for holding different types of dishes.

[0045] Similarly, the temperature probe 14 is also fixed to the dining stove bottom plate 10 through an elastic support rod, and is tightly attached to the bottom of the water basin 15 through elastic force, so as to realize real-time monitoring of the temperature of the water basin 15.

[0046] Specifically, when the sensing temperature reaches a certain high temperature, the controller 5 will automatically turn off the heater 13 according to the temperature range parameters set in advance. If the sensing temperature is lower than the preset temperature, the heating function will be automatically turned on. In actual application, the dining furnace temperature is automatically adjusted according to the restaurant customer flow or seasonal changes.

[0047] As an embodiment of the present invention, a buffet stove is disclosed, comprising the following steps: S01. The position detection mechanism 9 performs identification detection on the tray shelf slot 3. The identification signal is "yes", thereby identifying that the meal-taking tool is placed in the tray shelf slot 3. The controller 5 feeds back the signal to the third-party system.

[0048] S02, the position detection mechanism 9 performs identification detection on the tray shelf slot 3, and the identification signal is "no", thereby identifying that the meal-taking tool is not placed in the tray shelf slot 3, and the controller 5 feeds back the signal to the third-party system.

[0049] S03, the preset alarm duration is stored in the controller 5, and the controller 5 reads the signal of the position detection mechanism 9. If the signal is "no", that is, the meal-taking tool is not placed on the tray, the timer starts to accumulate the time it has not been placed. The controller 5 compares the accumulated time with the preset alarm duration, and outputs an alarm prompt to the third-party system if the limit is reached or the time has expired.

[0050] In this embodiment, when a food picking tool such as a food clip or a food spoon is placed in the dish rack slot 3, the food picking tool will interfere with the signal transmission between the position detection mechanism 9, thereby identifying that the food picking tool is "yes" placed in the dish rack slot 3; when a food picking tool such as a food clip or a food spoon is not placed in the dish rack slot 3, the position detection mechanism 9 receives all signals and there is no object interfering with the signal, thereby identifying that the food picking tool is "no" placed in the dish rack slot 3. The position detection device immediately sends a signal to the controller 5 with the data information.

[0051] The controller 5 can preset and adjust the storage alarm rules and alarm duration according to the needs of the actual application scenario. The controller 5 receives the signal of the position detection mechanism 9. When the identification signal is "no", it identifies that the meal-picking tool is not placed in the tray, and starts to record the cumulative time when the meal-picking tool is not placed. The controller 5 calculates and compares the cumulative time when the meal-picking tool is not placed and the preset alarm duration. When the cumulative time when the dish clip or the dish spoon is not in place reaches or exceeds the preset alarm duration, the alarm function is triggered, and the controller 5 outputs an alarm indication and transmits it to a third-party system. Ensure that when the dish clip or the dish spoon is not returned to its place for a long time, the relevant personnel can receive the alarm information in time. The controller 5 can store alarm rules and alarm duration, and the output alarm prompts include sound, display, and alarm duration. The sound, display, and alarm duration can be set by the alarm rules, and this alarm rule setting can be transmitted to the controller 5 or input on the control panel through a third-party system.

[0052] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions under the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, some improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of the present invention should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
