Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of device control, and in particular, to a kettle heating control method, an electronic device, a kettle and a kettle system. Background Art

[0002] The existing automatic water-adding kettle will automatically run the water-adding program after leaving the kettle base, so that when the kettle is placed back on the kettle base, the faucet will be automatically controlled to add water into the kettle. However, this automatic water-adding kettle fails to fully consider the user's water usage and has poor intelligence. Summary of the invention

[0003] The embodiments of the present application provide a kettle heating control method, an electronic device, a kettle and a kettle system, so as to at least solve the technical problem of poor intelligence of the kettle.

[0004] According to a first aspect of an embodiment of the present application, a kettle heating control method is provided, the method comprising:

[0005] In response to an activation signal of the kettle, acquiring water intake status of the kettle, wherein the water intake status includes parameters related to water intake;

[0006] According to the water intake situation, selectively adopting a first method that takes the boiling time as a factor to determine the water replenishment amount;

[0007] The kettle is replenished with the replenishing amount of water.

[0008] With this embodiment, the water intake situation includes parameters related to water intake. Therefore, the user's usage of the kettle can be determined through the water intake situation, so that before the kettle needs to be refilled with water, the first method is selectively used to determine the amount of water to be refilled. Since the first method takes the time required for boiling as a factor, the determined amount of water to be refilled can more easily ensure the water temperature in the kettle before the user needs water, thereby improving the intelligence of the kettle.

[0009] In combination with the first aspect, in an optional implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the water intake situation includes the number of water intake times;

[0010] The method of selectively using a first method that takes the boiling time as a factor to determine the water replenishment amount according to the water intake situation includes:

[0011] If the water extraction times are not less than the preset times, the water replenishment amount is determined by the first method, wherein the preset times are not less than 2 times.

[0012] Using this implementation method, the water extraction situation includes the number of water extraction times. When the number of water extraction times is not less than 2 times, it proves that the user has extracted water from the kettle at least 2 times, so that the time interval between the two times of water extraction by the user can be known. The amount of water that can be heated to boiling during this time interval can be used to determine the amount of water replenishment, thereby ensuring the water temperature in the kettle when the user uses the water in the kettle next time, thereby improving the user experience and the intelligence of the kettle.

[0013] In combination with the first aspect, in an optional implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the water intake situation includes the water intake amount of a single water intake and the water intake interval between two adjacent water intakes;

[0014] The method of determining the water replenishment amount by adopting the first method includes:

[0015] Determine a first water volume according to the water intake volume and the remaining water volume in the kettle;

[0016] calculating, according to the first amount of water, a first boiling time required after the first amount of water is added into the kettle;

[0017] If the time required for the first boiling exceeds the water-taking interval, determining a second amount of water according to the water-taking interval, wherein the time required for the second boiling after the second amount of water is added to the kettle does not exceed the water-taking interval;

[0018] Using the second water volume as the water intake volume;

[0019] If the time required for the first boiling does not exceed the water intake interval, the first water volume is used as the water intake volume.

[0020] When adopting this implementation method, the first water volume is first determined according to the normal needs of the user. If the time required for the first boiling of the first water volume to be heated to boiling exceeds the water-taking interval, it proves that the water temperature in the kettle cannot be guaranteed when the user takes water next time. Therefore, the second water volume is determined according to the water-taking interval, so that after the second water volume is added to the kettle, the user can get boiling water when he takes water next time, which improves the intelligence of the kettle and the user experience.

[0021] In combination with the first aspect, in an optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present application, the method further includes:

[0022] If the water extraction times are less than the set times, a second method is used to determine the water replenishment amount, wherein the second method includes a method that takes the required water amount as a factor.

[0023] With this implementation, when the number of water fetching times is less than 2 times, the second method is used to determine the amount of water to be replenished. Since the second method takes the required amount of water as a factor, the user can get sufficient water, thereby improving the intelligence of the kettle and the user's experience.

[0024] In combination with the first aspect, in an optional implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the determining the water replenishment amount by the second method includes:

[0025] The difference between the water intake amount and the remaining water amount in the kettle is used as the water replenishment amount, or the preset default water amount is used as the water replenishment amount, or the difference between the preset set water amount and the remaining water amount is used as the water replenishment amount, wherein the default water amount refers to the amount of water that needs to be added to the kettle, and the set water amount refers to the total amount of water in the kettle after replenishment.

[0026] By adopting this implementation, there are multiple ways to determine the water replenishment amount of the second mode, which improves the flexibility of using the kettle.

[0027] In combination with the first aspect, in an optional implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the water intake situation includes the water intake amount of a single water intake;

[0028] The method further comprises:

[0029] If the water intake exceeds the remaining water in the kettle, the first method of selectively adopting the boiling time as a factor to determine the water replenishment amount according to the water intake situation is executed; otherwise, there is no need to replenish water in the kettle.

[0030] By adopting this implementation method, it is first determined whether the water intake exceeds the remaining water volume. If not, it proves that the remaining water volume meets the user's next water intake demand. Therefore, there is no need to add water to the kettle. This not only guarantees the user's next water intake demand, but also avoids excessive water in the kettle, thereby improving the intelligence of the kettle.

[0031] In combination with the first aspect, in an optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present application, the method further includes:

[0032] After the kettle is filled with water, obtaining a first weight or a first water level of the kettle;

[0033] After the kettle is separated from the kettle base and put back on the kettle base, obtaining a second weight or a second water level of the kettle;

[0034] taking the second weight or the second water level as the remaining water amount;

[0035] The difference between the first weight and the second weight or the difference between the first water level and the second water level is taken as the water intake of this water intake.

[0036] By adopting this implementation method, the remaining water volume and the water intake volume are obtained by using weight or water level, which is simple and convenient and helps to reduce costs.

[0037] In combination with the first aspect, in an optional implementation manner of the embodiment of the present application, the method further includes:

[0038] If the number of water fetching times exceeds 3 times, the number of people drinking water is determined according to the water fetching amount of each water fetching, each water fetching interval and a preset relationship table, wherein the relationship table includes the corresponding relationship between the water fetching amount, the water fetching interval and the number of people drinking water;

[0039] The second water volume is corrected according to the number of people drinking water, wherein the corrected second water volume is increased as the number of people drinking water increases.

[0040] By adopting this implementation method, the water intake volume and water intake interval are used to determine the number of people drinking water, and the second water volume is corrected according to the number of people drinking water, so that the kettle can meet the different needs of users in different situations, thereby improving the intelligence and usage experience of the kettle.

[0041] According to a second aspect of an embodiment of the present application, an electronic device is provided, the electronic device comprising a memory and a processor;

[0042] The memory is used to store computer programs;

[0043] The processor is used to execute the computer program to implement the steps of the method described above.

[0044] According to a third aspect of an embodiment of the present application, a kettle is provided, comprising the electronic device described above or controlled by the steps of the method described above.

[0045] According to the fourth aspect of an embodiment of the present application, a kettle system is provided, comprising the above-mentioned kettle and a kettle base, the kettle base comprising a mounting seat and a water injection pipe, the mounting seat being provided with a weight sensor for detecting the weight of the kettle, and the water injection pipe being used to inject water into the kettle.

[0046] The technical effects obtained in the above-mentioned second to fourth aspects are similar to the technical effects obtained by the corresponding technical means in the first aspect, and will not be repeated here. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0052] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0053] It should be understood that the "plurality" mentioned in this article refers to two or more. In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, " / " means or, for example, A / B can mean A or B; "and / or" in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, in order to facilitate the clear description of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, in the embodiments of the present application, the words "first", "second" and so on are used to distinguish between the same items or similar items with basically the same functions and effects. Those skilled in the art can understand that the words "first", "second" and so on do not limit the quantity and execution order, and the words "first", "second" and so on do not limit certain different

[0054] In addition, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements explicitly listed, but may include other steps or elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0055] The existing automatic water-adding kettle uses a weighing module to determine the amount of water in the kettle. When the user needs to add water, the faucet will rotate to the top of the kettle and start adding water until the default water volume is reached or the user-set water volume is reached. However, the problem with this solution is that whether to add water to the kettle depends on the user's operation. If the user forgets to click the "add water" button, there may not be enough hot water in the kettle when brewing the next pot of tea. If the user drinks tea for a long time, he or she will need to click "add water" many times during the whole process, which is not smart enough.

[0056] Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide a kettle heating control method, an electronic device, a kettle and a kettle system, which have the following characteristics:

[0057] 1. After power-on, the machine automatically adds water to the default water volume or the user-set water volume. After the user takes water for the first time, the weighing module detects the user's water volume this time and determines whether the remaining water in the pot can meet the user's next water intake. If it is not enough, the faucet is controlled to rotate to add water. In this way, when the user drinks tea for a long time, there is no need to click "add water" many times, which simplifies the use process.

[0058] 2. Check the interval between two water fetchings. If the interval is too short to heat the newly added cold water to boiling, give priority to adding the maximum amount of water that can boil within this time to ensure the water temperature.

[0059] 3. When the user is about to stop drinking tea, the automatic water adding process can be controlled to stop to reduce the amount of water in the pot.

[0060] The kettle heating control method provided in the embodiment of the present application detects the amount of water taken by the user this time through a weighing module, and determines whether the remaining water in the kettle meets the user's next water intake. If it is not enough, the faucet is controlled to rotate to add water. The interval between two water intakes is detected, and water is added to the maximum amount of water that can be boiled within this time to ensure the water intake temperature. In this way, when the user drinks tea for a long time, there is no need to click "add water" multiple times, which simplifies the use process and improves the intelligence of the kettle.

[0061] For ease of understanding, the kettle heating control method provided in this embodiment is further described. Figure 1 The flowchart of the kettle heating control method shown in the figure includes the following processing procedures.

[0062] S100: In response to an activation signal of the kettle, obtaining water intake status of the kettle.

[0063] After receiving the activation signal, obtain the water intake status.

[0064] The water intake situation includes parameters related to water intake, such as a single water intake amount, a sum of multiple water intake amounts, the number of water intake times, etc., which are not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0065] Among them, the start signal can be a signal triggered after the kettle is placed on the heating base, it can also be a signal triggered after the kettle is separated from the heating base, or it can be a signal triggered after the kettle starts heating / completes heating. In other words, as long as it can represent that the kettle is enabled, the enable signal can be triggered.

[0066] S102, selectively adopting the first method of taking the boiling time as a factor to determine the water replenishment amount according to the water intake situation.

[0067] In one embodiment, different water replenishment amount determination methods are selected for different water intake situations. In a certain case, the first method is used to determine the water replenishment amount. The first method takes the boiling time as a factor when determining the water replenishment amount. The boiling time refers to the length of time required to heat the water in the kettle to boiling.

[0068] Specifically, the water intake situation indicates that the faster the frequency of water intake by the user and the more water intake per time, the first method is selected to determine the water replenishment amount.

[0069] S104, adding a replenishing amount of water into the kettle.

[0070] In one embodiment, a water replenishing device controlled by the current executing subject is also provided on one side of the heating base of the kettle. The current executing subject controls the water output time or water output of the water replenishing device to replenish the water in the kettle.

[0071] With this embodiment, the water intake situation includes parameters related to water intake. Therefore, the user's usage of the kettle can be determined through the water intake situation, so that before the kettle needs to be refilled with water, the first method is selectively used to determine the amount of water to be refilled. Since the first method takes the time required for boiling as a factor, the determined amount of water to be refilled can more easily ensure the water temperature in the kettle before the user needs water, thereby improving the intelligence of the kettle.

[0072] In a possible embodiment of the present application, the water extraction situation includes the number of water extraction times;

[0073] The first method of determining the amount of water to be replenished by taking the boiling time into consideration is selectively used according to the water intake situation, including:

[0074] If the water extraction times are preset, the water replenishment amount is determined by the first method, wherein the set times are not less than 2 times.

[0075] In one embodiment, after the kettle is separated from the heating base once and put back on the heating base, it is regarded as a water extraction occurrence. Each time water extraction occurs, the water extraction times are increased by one. The initial water extraction times are 0.

[0076] Using this implementation method, the water extraction situation includes the number of water extraction times. When the number of water extraction times is not less than 2 times, it proves that the user has extracted water from the kettle at least 2 times, so that the time interval between the two times of water extraction by the user can be known. The amount of water that can be heated to boiling during this time interval can be used to determine the amount of water replenishment, thereby ensuring the water temperature in the kettle when the user uses the water in the kettle next time, thereby improving the user experience and the intelligence of the kettle.

[0077] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the water intake situation includes the water intake amount of a single water intake and the water intake interval between two adjacent water intakes.

[0078] In one embodiment, the time interval between two consecutive separations of the kettle from the heating base is the water extraction interval of one water extraction. The amount of water extracted can be obtained by measuring using a weight sensor or a water level sensor. Specifically, for example, the water level sensor is used to detect the water level value before the kettle is separated from the heating base. When the kettle is placed back on the heating base, the water level sensor detects the water level value again, and the difference between the two water level values ​​is used as the amount of water extracted this time. In addition, the amount of water extracted for a single water extraction can also be the average of the amounts of water extracted each time before.

[0079] like Figure 2 As shown, the first method is used to determine the water replenishment amount, including:

[0080] S200: Determine a first water volume according to the water intake volume and the remaining water volume in the kettle.

[0081] In one embodiment, the first water volume is obtained by subtracting the remaining water volume from the water intake volume.

[0082] S202, calculating the time required for the first boiling after the first amount of water is added into the kettle according to the first amount of water.

[0083] In one embodiment, how much water is added to the kettle and how long it takes to heat it to boiling can be obtained through experiments. Therefore, after knowing the first amount of water, the time required for the first boiling can be obtained based on the previous experimental data.

[0084] Specifically, in other embodiments, the current water temperature in the kettle can be considered, and then combined with the amount of water to be added, to determine the time required for boiling. The lower the current water temperature, or the lower the added water temperature, the longer the boiling time is required. The above situations can all be obtained through experiments to obtain the corresponding boiling time.

[0085] S204: If the time required for the first boiling exceeds the water fetching interval, determine the second water volume according to the water fetching interval.

[0086] The time required for the second boiling after the second amount of water is added into the kettle does not exceed the water extraction interval.

[0087] Preferably, the water extraction interval is taken as the time required for the second boiling, and the water volume is reversely searched in the experimental data to obtain the second water volume.

[0088] S206. Use the second water volume as the water intake volume.

[0089] S208: If the time required for the first boiling does not exceed the water intake interval, the first water volume is used as the water intake volume.

[0090] When adopting this implementation method, the first water volume is first determined according to the normal needs of the user. If the time required for the first boiling of the first water volume to be heated to boiling exceeds the water-taking interval, it proves that the water temperature in the kettle cannot be guaranteed when the user takes water next time. Therefore, the second water volume is determined according to the water-taking interval, so that after the second water volume is added to the kettle, the user can get boiling water when he takes water next time, which improves the intelligence of the kettle and the user experience.

[0091] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the method further includes:

[0092] If the number of water extraction times is less than the set number, the second method is used to determine the water replenishment amount, wherein the second method includes a method that takes the required water amount as a factor.

[0093] Among them, the required water volume is the amount of water required by the user each time he draws water, that is, the single water withdrawal volume.

[0094] With this implementation, when the number of water fetching times is less than 2 times, the second method is used to determine the amount of water to be replenished. Since the second method takes the required amount of water as a factor, the user can get sufficient water, thereby improving the intelligence of the kettle and the user's experience.

[0095] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the water replenishment amount is determined by a second method, including:

[0096] The difference between the amount of water taken and the amount of water remaining in the kettle is used as the amount of water to be replenished, or the preset default amount of water is used as the amount of water to be replenished, or the difference between the preset set amount of water and the remaining amount of water is used as the amount of water to be replenished.

[0097] Among them, the default water volume refers to the amount of water that needs to be added to the kettle, and the set water volume refers to the total amount of water in the kettle after the kettle is refilled.

[0098] By adopting this implementation, there are multiple ways to determine the water replenishment amount of the second mode, which improves the flexibility of using the kettle.

[0099] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the water intake situation includes the water intake amount of a single water intake;

[0100] The method also includes:

[0101] If the amount of water taken in exceeds the remaining amount of water in the kettle, the first method of selectively using the boiling time as a factor to determine the amount of water to be added is executed according to the water intake situation. Otherwise, there is no need to add water to the kettle.

[0102] By adopting this implementation method, it is first determined whether the water intake exceeds the remaining water volume. If not, it proves that the remaining water volume meets the user's next water intake demand. Therefore, there is no need to add water to the kettle. This not only guarantees the user's next water intake demand, but also avoids excessive water in the kettle, thereby improving the intelligence of the kettle.

[0103] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the method further includes:

[0104] After the kettle is filled with water, obtaining a first weight or a first water level of the kettle;

[0105] After the kettle is separated from the kettle base and put back on the kettle base, obtaining a second weight or a second water level of the kettle;

[0106] The second weight or the second water level is taken as the remaining water amount;

[0107] The difference between the first weight and the second weight or the difference between the first water level and the second water level is taken as the water intake of this water intake.

[0108] By adopting this implementation method, the remaining water volume and the water intake volume are obtained by using weight or water level, which is simple and convenient and helps to reduce costs.

[0109] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the method further includes:

[0110] If the number of water fetching times exceeds 3 times, the number of people drinking water is determined based on the amount of water fetched each time, each water fetching interval, and a preset relationship table, wherein the relationship table includes the corresponding relationship between the amount of water fetched, the water fetching interval, and the number of people drinking water;

[0111] The second water volume is corrected according to the number of people drinking water, wherein the corrected second water volume is increased as the number of people drinking water increases.

[0112] In one embodiment, the relationship table includes different water intake amounts and water intake intervals corresponding to the number of people drinking water, as well as correction values ​​for the second water amount for different number of people drinking water. Specifically, the second water amount is corrected starting from the number of people drinking water of 3, and the correction value increases by one unit for each additional person. The initial value of the correction value may be 50ml or 100ml, and one unit may be 10ml or 20ml, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0113] By adopting this implementation method, the water intake volume and water intake interval are used to determine the number of people drinking water, and the second water volume is corrected according to the number of people drinking water, so that the kettle can meet the different needs of users in different situations, thereby improving the intelligence and usage experience of the kettle.

[0114] In the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant description of other embodiments. The steps shown in the relevant flow chart can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although the logical order is shown in the flow chart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that here. In other words, the order of steps described in the foregoing embodiments is only an example, and it is also within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present application to reasonably adjust the order of steps based on the content of the embodiments of the present application.

[0115] In a specific implementation of the embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 and 4 As shown, the kettle heating control method includes the following processing steps:

[0116] 1. The automatic water-adding kettle generally consists of three parts: a rotating water-adding faucet, a kettle, and a base. When water needs to be added, the faucet will rotate to the top of the kettle to add water; after the water is added, the faucet rotates back to the initial position and the kettle starts to boil water.

[0117] 2. The weighing module is located in the base below the kettle, which can obtain the water volume in the kettle in real time. The specific process of determining whether to add water is as follows:

[0118] 1) After power on, the faucet rotates automatically and water is added to the default water volume or the water volume set by the user;

[0119] 2) When the user takes the kettle to get water and puts it back, the weighing module can obtain the remaining water volume W in the kettle and calculate the amount of water a taken by the user this time through the weight change before and after. Since the tea set and the number of people used by the user during a tea drinking period are relatively fixed, it can be judged that the amount of water taken next time is also approximately equal to a;

[0120] 3) When the remaining water volume W is less than the user's water volume a, it is considered that the remaining water volume in the kettle does not meet the user's need for the next water draw, and the faucet is controlled to rotate to the right position to add water;

[0121] 4) When the remaining water volume W ≥ the user's water withdrawal volume a, it is considered that the remaining water volume can meet the user's next water withdrawal, and the faucet does not respond;

[0122] 5) If the user is about to finish drinking tea, he can press the 'stop' key to terminate the automatic water adding process. After that, even if W < a is detected, automatic water adding will not be performed, thereby reducing the water in the pot.

[0123] 3. After confirming that water needs to be added, the process for determining the amount of new water to be added is as follows:

[0124] 1) When the user takes less than two times of water, add water to the default water volume or the water volume set by the user. Detect the time interval T between the two times the user takes water;

[0125] 2) Calculate the amount of new water N to be added = user water intake a - remaining water W, and calculate the time t for the new water N to boil. Here t is an empirically calculated value, which can be obtained during the performance test in the early stage of development;

[0126] 3) When the water-taking time interval T ≥ the time t for the newly added water to boil, it is considered that the user can boil the newly added water N before the next water taking, so water is added to the user's water taking amount a;

[0127] 4) When the water extraction time interval T is less than the time t for the newly added water to boil, it is considered that if the newly added water is a, it cannot boil when the user takes water next time, so the maximum amount of water n that can boil within the time T should be added. Here, the maximum water amount n and the time t for boiling are both empirically calculated values ​​and need to be obtained during the performance test in the early stage of development.

[0128] 5) The amount of new water to be added is determined to meet the user's water temperature and ensure that the kettle is boiling water the next time the user draws water.

[0129] 4. When the water adding process is completed, the kettle is controlled to start boiling water; combined with low-fire boiling and anti-dry-burning logic, users can use hot water of appropriate temperature for each brew while ensuring safety.

[0130] 5. When the user is about to stop drinking tea and the control stops the automatic water adding process, if the weighing sensor detects that there is still water in the kettle and it has not been cleaned for a certain period of time, a buzzer or indicator light will be used to prompt the user to clean the kettle.

[0131] 6. The present invention can simplify the operation of clicking the "add water" button multiple times during the tea brewing process into one click of the "stop" button, thereby avoiding the user's tea brewing process being interrupted due to the need to control the addition of water, simplifying the use process and being more intelligent.

[0132] The weighing module can be replaced by a liquid level probe, which can also obtain the remaining water volume W in the kettle and the water volume a taken by the user.

[0133] The embodiment of the present application also provides an electronic device, including a memory and a processor;

[0134] The memory is used to store computer programs;

[0135] The processor is used to execute the computer program to implement the steps of the method described above.

[0136] Specifically, Figure 5As shown, the electronic device includes a processor 100, at least one communication bus 200, a user interface 300, at least one external communication interface 400 and a memory 500. The communication bus 200 is configured to realize the connection and communication between these components.
