[0084] The gas meter is wirelessly connected to the range hood equipment and reports gas usage data.

[0085] The electromagnetic shut-off valve cuts off the gas pipeline according to the control command.

[0086] The intelligent kitchen range hood central control gateway system can process data received from kitchen appliances, including the following steps:

[0087] Step 101: Data reception and verification;

[0088] The range hood gateway receives real-time data transmitted from kitchen appliances such as disinfection cabinets and range hoods, including equipment operating status data and environmental monitoring data.

[0089] After receiving the data, methods such as Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) are used to verify the data and check whether errors occurred during the transmission process.

[0090] If the data is incorrect, the device is requested to resend it until correct data is received. The range hood gateway receives real-time data transmitted from each kitchen appliance.

[0091] The time of receiving data is The received data set is ;

[0092] The verification function is ,when This indicates that the data is correct. This indicates that the data is incorrect.

[0093] Step 102: Edge computing module optimization processing;

[0094] The edge computing module in the range hood gateway processes the verified data;

[0095] First, the data is categorized and organized. For example, operational status data and environmental monitoring data are classified separately. The operational status data set is as follows: The environmental monitoring data set is Then, optimized algorithms are used to analyze and process different types of data:

[0096] The updated status judgment algorithm is used to analyze the operational status data to determine whether the device is operating normally or needs to adjust its operating mode.

[0097] The conditions for determining that the equipment is operating normally are: (The function value is 1 when normal operating conditions are met, and 0 otherwise.) The specific formula can be set according to the actual operating logic of the equipment. For example, for a range hood, if its motor speed is within the normal range and there is no fault alarm signal, it can be set to normal operation. If the motor speed is... The normal speed range is The fault alarm signal is (When there is no alarm) When an alarm is triggered ),but: ;

[0098] For environmental monitoring data, analyze the updated environmental parameter thresholds to determine whether it is necessary to adjust the equipment operating parameters, etc.

[0099] For example, regarding data on oil fume concentration, let the safe threshold for oil fume concentration be... When the concentration of cooking fumes exceeds a threshold, adjustments such as adjusting the suction power of the range hood are required. The function for determining if the cooking fume concentration exceeds the threshold is defined as follows: :

[0100] During data processing, the performance metrics of the edge computing module, such as computing speed and memory usage, are monitored in real time. Let the performance monitoring function be... ,when (in When the set performance threshold is reached, a performance optimization mechanism is triggered, such as dynamically adjusting algorithm parameters and releasing memory, to ensure the efficiency and accuracy of data processing.

[0103] Before sending instructions to the kitchen equipment, the instructions are validated again to ensure accuracy. If an instruction is incorrect, it is regenerated and validated again until it is correct. Finally, the validated instructions are sent to the corresponding equipment for execution.

[0104] Through measures such as data verification, edge computing optimization, and instruction verification, the efficiency of data processing and instruction execution has been effectively improved, enabling the smart kitchen system to respond quickly and accurately to changes in the environment and equipment status, adjust equipment working modes and parameters in a timely manner, troubleshoot equipment faults, and ultimately improve the system's operating efficiency and user experience.

[0127] The system enables smart kitchen appliances to be connected to the internet and remotely controlled via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technologies, providing flexible connectivity options and a wide range of device types. This allows users to monitor and manage kitchen appliances anytime, anywhere via a mobile app.

[0128] Range Hood Gateway Configuration:

[0129] Press the network configuration button on the range hood, and the gateway will enter network configuration mode.

[0130] Use the app to connect the range hood gateway to the Wi-Fi router.

[0131] Range Hood Gateway Network Setup:

[0132] Press the network configuration button on the range hood, and the gateway will enter network mode.

[0133] At this time, the sub-device Bluetooth or Wi-Fi product enters the network configuration mode, and the gateway will automatically bind to the sub-device.

[0134] The gateway can only network one sub-device at a time, and multiple sub-devices can be networked repeatedly.

[0135] Remote monitoring:

[0136] The range hood gateway connects to the cloud platform.

[0137] You can use the app to monitor the status of all devices under the gateway.

[0138] Configure smart scene rules for devices under the gateway.

[0142] Even when the external network is abnormal, pre-set automated scenarios can still be executed.

[0143] Rapid response and stable control ensure that the interconnection of smart devices is not restricted by external network anomalies.

[0144] Set device linkage conditions and timing rules on the APP.

[0145] Precautions:

[0146] For each new gateway device added, the gateway firmware does not need to be updated; instead, the gateway interface configuration in the app needs to be updated.

[0147] The range hood gateway enables the networking and remote control of smart kitchen equipment, providing flexible connection methods and a wide range of equipment types, ensuring that users can monitor and manage kitchen equipment anytime, anywhere via a mobile app.

[0148] In a smart kitchen environment, a range hood gateway is installed, connecting a smart disinfection cabinet and a smart range hood. The disinfection cabinet reports its own operating status data every 5 minutes, including parameters such as the current operating mode, temperature, and humidity; the range hood reports its operating status data every 1 minute, including parameters such as the current operating level, motor speed, and oil fume concentration, and also reports the temperature and humidity data of the kitchen environment.

[0149] At some point The range hood gateway received the following data:

[0150] Disinfection cabinet status data: ;

[0151] Range hood status data: ;

[0152] Kitchen environment data: ;

[0153] The gateway first performs a CRC check on the received data. After confirming that the data is correct, it categorizes it according to its type. Then, the edge computing module begins to analyze and process the data:

[0154] For the status data of the disinfection cabinet, determine whether its operating mode is correct and whether the temperature and humidity are within a reasonable range. In high-temperature mode, the temperature threshold is [70, 80] and the humidity threshold is [50, 70], then the disinfection cabinet is operating normally.

[0155] For the range hood's status data, first determine if the motor speed is normal. At the second fan speed, the normal motor speed range is [1000, 1500], so the motor speed is normal at this time. Next, determine if the oil fume concentration exceeds the standard. The oil fume concentration threshold is set to 10, so the oil fume concentration is not exceeded, and there is no need to adjust the suction power.

[0156] For the kitchen environment data, analyze whether the temperature and humidity are within the comfortable range. The comfortable temperature range is [22, 28], and the comfortable humidity range is [40, 60]. In this case, the kitchen temperature is too high, and the air conditioning settings need to be adjusted.

[0157] Based on the above analysis, the gateway generates the following control commands:

[0158] Keep the current operating mode and parameters of the disinfection cabinet unchanged.

[0159] Keep the current operating level and suction power of the range hood unchanged.

[0160] Lower the air conditioner temperature setting to 26 degrees Celsius.

[0161] Before issuing control commands, the gateway verifies the commands to ensure their accuracy. Then, the commands are sent to the disinfection cabinet, range hood, and air conditioner respectively, and the devices immediately perform the corresponding adjustments upon receiving the commands.

[0162] exist At that time, the gateway received the following data again:

[0163] Range hood status data:

[0164] Kitchen environment data:

[0165] At this point, the concentration of cooking fumes had exceeded the threshold. The gateway immediately generated a command to increase the range hood's setting to level 3 and lower the air conditioner temperature by 1 degree Celsius. After the command was issued, the concentration of cooking fumes quickly decreased, and the kitchen temperature returned to a comfortable range.

[0166] Based on the aforementioned embodiments, the kitchen equipment also includes a visual sensor, an auditory sensor, and a tactile sensor, and the range hood gateway further performs the following steps:

[0167] Step 201, Sensor state detection and preprocessing;

[0168] The equipped sensor fault detection and early warning device detects the operating status information of the vision sensor, hearing sensor, and touch sensor, respectively, and represents them as follows: , and .in:

[0169] : Visual sensor operating status information, with a value range of 0 to 1, indicating the working status of the visual sensor. 0 means completely failed, 1 means completely normal, and 0.95 means the visual sensor is working well.

[0170] : Hearing sensor operating status information, with a value range of 0 to 1, indicating the working status of the hearing sensor. 0.90 indicates that the hearing sensor is working well.

[0171] : Tactile sensor operating status information, with a value range of 0 to 1, indicating the working status of the tactile sensor. 0.98 indicates that the tactile sensor is working well.

[0172] If the vision sensor becomes contaminated with oil or other substances that affect image acquisition quality, activate the sensor fault repair device to clean it and ensure the quality of the acquired visual information. The clarity reaches The above. Among them:

[0173] Visual information acquired by visual sensors, including images and videos.

[0174] For auditory sensors, if their anti-interference capability index is detected... The display shows severe external noise interference, with noise levels exceeding [a certain decibel level]. Then adjust its anti-interference parameters to suppress the noise to...

[0177] When the sensitivity of the tactile sensor drops to The following or data transmission stability is less than At the same time, a sensor fault repair device is used to perform corresponding repair operations, so that the collected tactile information can be restored. The accuracy rate has been restored to The above. Among them:

[0178] : Tactile information collected by tactile sensors, including temperature, humidity, pressure, etc.

[0179] Step 202, Multimodal Information Acquisition

[0180] With all sensors functioning correctly, the visual, auditory, and tactile sensors are activated simultaneously to collect visual information from within the kitchen. Auditory information and tactile information :

Characteristics of food ingredients Such features can be achieved through a series of complex image processing algorithms, resulting in a processed visual feature vector.

[0197]

[0198] in This is a function for processing tactile information.

[0199] Step 204, Multimodal Information Fusion

[0200] Extracted and preprocessed visual feature vectors Auditory feature vectors and tactile feature vectors By fusing the features, a comprehensive feature vector is obtained. Various fusion methods can be employed, such as weighted averaging and feature concatenation. Taking the weighted averaging method as an example, the weights of the visual, auditory, and tactile feature vectors are respectively... , , And satisfy The fusion formula is:

[0201]

[0202] Step 205, Intelligent Decision Making;

[0203] The fused integrated feature vector Input into intelligent decision-making model In this system, the intelligent decision-making model can be built based on machine learning (such as neural networks, decision trees, etc.) or other intelligent algorithms. The model judges the current kitchen environment and user behavior based on comprehensive feature vectors, and outputs operation instructions for different kitchen equipment.

[0204] Taking range hoods as an example, intelligent decision-making models The suction power setting for a range hood should be [not specified]. The formula is expressed as:

[0213] Step 206, Instruction Execution

[0217] For induction cookers and other related kitchen appliances, follow the output operating parameters. Make the necessary adjustments, setting the induction cooker power to 800W and the timer to 15 minutes.
