[0018] 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.

[0019] It should be understood that when used in this specification and the appended claims, the terms "include" and "comprises" indicate the presence of described features, integers, steps, operations, elements and / or components, but do not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other features, integers, steps, operations, elements, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0020] It should also be understood that the terms used in this application specification are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the application. As used in this application specification and the appended claims, the singular forms "a", "an" and "the" are intended to include plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0021] It should be further understood that the term “and / or” used in the specification and appended claims refers to any combination and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items, and includes these combinations.

[0022] With the increasing popularity of household appliances, the market for frozen food production equipment, as an efficient and convenient kitchen appliance, is expanding. Currently, most frozen food production equipment on the market uses fixed preset programs to determine the duration of wall breaking and stirring according to the target finished product (such as soy milk, juice, milkshake, etc.), resulting in unequal rotation time and intervals for the same unit of food raw materials.

[0023] However, the amount of materials put in by the user each time may be different, and the same preset program may result in uneven quality of frozen food. For example, when the amount of materials is too much, the taste may be affected due to insufficient wall breaking; and when the amount of materials is too little, the finished product may be too thin due to excessive mixing and fail to achieve the desired taste.

[0024] In order to solve this problem existing in the prior art, the present application proposes a frozen food production method, equipment, device and storage medium, wherein the frozen food production method is applied to the frozen food production equipment, the frozen food production equipment includes an operating barrel, a stirring module and a wall breaking module arranged in the operating barrel, and the method includes: obtaining initial state information; wherein the initial state information includes target finished product information and initial height information of food raw materials in the operating barrel; determining the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter based on the initial state information; within the actual working time, controlling the wall breaking module and the stirring module to work alternately; wherein the wall breaking module works according to the first control parameter, and the stirring module works according to the second control parameter. Thus, the operation of the stirring module and the wall breaking module can be controlled according to the situation of the target finished product to be produced and the amount of food raw materials added, so that the target finished product of the same quality can be obtained under different dosages, ensuring the consistency of the taste of the target finished product.

[0025] The technical solutions 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.

[0026] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A frozen food production method provided by the present application is shown, and the method is applied to a frozen food production device, and the frozen food production device includes an operating barrel, a stirring module and a wall breaking module arranged in the operating barrel. The frozen food production method at least includes: steps S110 to S130.

[0027] Step S110: Obtain initial status information.

[0028] The initial state information includes target finished product information and initial height information of food raw materials in the operation barrel. The initial state information is used to determine control parameters of the frozen food production equipment.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present application, the operation barrel is used to place food raw materials, such as a solid mixture of fruit, cream, water, nuts, milk, etc. For example, the food raw materials in a liquid state can be frozen into a solid mixture. The food raw materials of the solid mixture are placed in the operation barrel for processing. The food raw materials of the solid mixture are plastic in shape, which can improve the accuracy of the detection height.

[0030] In some embodiments, the frozen food production equipment may be provided with a detection module, which is used to detect the initial height information of the food raw materials in the operating barrel, so as to determine the placement of the food raw materials in the operating barrel and the amount of food raw materials placed, so as to subsequently set corresponding control parameters according to different placement amounts of the user.

[0031] Optionally, the detection module can use ultrasonic technology to detect the height. The detection module can emit detection ultrasonic waves to the operation barrel, and the detection ultrasonic waves propagate in the food raw materials in the operation barrel. When encountering an interface, they are emitted to form emission ultrasonic waves. The detection module receives the emission ultrasonic waves, determines the time interval from emission to reception of the ultrasonic waves and the propagation speed of the ultrasonic waves in the solid mixture, and can calculate the height of the food raw materials in the operation barrel, thereby determining the initial height information.

[0032] In some embodiments, the detection module can also be used to interact with the user to obtain the target finished product information input by the user. The detection module can include but is not limited to a key unit, a sound unit, a display unit, and other modules that can interact with the user, and the interaction method is not limited.

[0033] In other embodiments, the detection module can also be used to communicate with the user's terminal device to obtain the target finished product information set by the user; and set corresponding control parameters based on the user's target finished product information to make different amounts of food raw materials into target finished products of the same quality.

[0034] The target finished product information may include the categories of frozen food, such as soft ice cream, hard ice cream, smoothie, frozen yogurt, sorbet, popsicle, ice cream roll, etc., and may even be a custom category (freely matched by the user). The target finished product information may also include the taste of the frozen food, such as delicate, smooth, medium, slightly rough, sandy, granular, etc.

[0035] It is understandable that when a user selects frozen food, it is necessary to place food raw materials corresponding to the frozen food. For example, when a user selects a preset frozen food, the first raw material accounts for a first percentage, and the second raw material accounts for a second percentage.

[0036] In some embodiments, in addition to the preset frozen food categories, users can also match their favorite frozen foods and the food ingredients of the frozen foods according to their own preferences.

[0037] Step S120: determining the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter based on the initial state information.

[0038] In some embodiments, the frozen food production equipment can pre-set the correspondence between the control parameters corresponding to the target finished product information of different portions, so that the control parameters of the corresponding portions can be obtained through the initial height information, ensuring that different portions of food raw materials can ultimately obtain similar quality.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the actual working time is the total time required for the frozen food production equipment to produce the target finished product.

[0040] The first control parameter is used to control the control parameters of the wall-breaking module. The first control parameter may include the total wall-breaking time and the unit wall-breaking time.

[0041] The wall breaking module and the stirring module work alternately, and the unit wall breaking time can be the time required for each wall breaking work of the wall breaking module. The total wall breaking time can be the total time the wall breaking module actually works in the process of making the target finished product.

[0042] It is understandable that the present application is not limited thereto, and the first control parameter may also include the rotation speed of the cutter head of the wall breaking module. Among them, the rotation speed of the cutter head of the wall breaking module may be a fixed value or may change dynamically. For example, the rotation speed of the cutter head of the wall breaking module corresponding to different portions of raw materials may be different. For example, in the entire wall breaking process, the rotation speed of the cutter head of the wall breaking module may also be different, for example, the working process of the wall breaking module may be divided into the first process and the second process (for example, it may be distinguished by the working time, the working time of 0 to N seconds is classified as the first process, and the total time of N seconds to the wall breaking is classified as the second process), and the rotation speed of the cutter head of the first process and the second process may also be different. In the first process, when the food just starts to break the wall, the rotation speed of the cutter head may be increased to quickly crush the food. In the second process, when the food has been partially crushed, the rotation speed of the cutter head may be appropriately reduced to reduce power consumption and noise. In short, the control parameters of the wall breaking module may be adjusted in combination with the user's more detailed needs to meet the user's needs for taste, noise, power consumption, etc.

[0043] The second control parameter is used to control the control parameter of the stirring module to produce the target finished product. The second control parameter may include the total stirring time and the unit stirring time.

[0044] The wall breaking module and the stirring module work alternately, and the unit stirring time can be the time required for each stirring work of the stirring module. The total stirring time can be the total time the stirring module actually works in the process of making the target finished product.

[0045] It is understandable that the present application is not limited to this, and the second control parameter may also include the rotation speed of the blade of the stirring module. That is, the blade speed of the stirring module may be a fixed value or may change dynamically. For example, the blade speed of the stirring module corresponding to different portions of raw materials may be different. For example, during the entire stirring process, the blade speed of the stirring module may be different, for example, the working process of the stirring module may be divided into a first process and a second process (for example, it may be distinguished by the working time, and the working time of 0 to N seconds is classified as the first process, and the total stirring time of N seconds is classified as the second process), and the blade speed of the first process and the second process may also be different. In the first process, the food has just started to stir, and the stirring difficulty is greater. The blade speed can be increased to ensure that the food is stirred evenly. In the second process, the food has been partially crushed, and the stirring difficulty is reduced. The blade speed can be appropriately reduced to reduce power consumption and noise. In short, the control parameters of the stirring module can be adjusted in combination with the user's more detailed needs to meet the user's needs for taste, noise, power consumption, etc.

[0046] In some embodiments, the first control parameter includes the total wall-breaking time and the unit wall-breaking time, and the second control parameter includes the total stirring time and the unit stirring time. The number of wall-breaking times can be determined according to the total wall-breaking time and the unit wall-breaking time, and the number of stirring times can be determined according to the total stirring time and the unit stirring time. The number of wall-breaking times can be the same or different.

[0047] Optionally, , .

[0048] In some implementations, the user can also customize the target finished product information, that is, the user can match the target finished product according to his or her own preferences. At this time, the user can set the corresponding control parameters by himself or herself to meet the user's personalized needs.

[0049] Step S130: During the actual working time, control the wall breaking module and the stirring module to work alternately; wherein the wall breaking module works according to the first control parameter, and the stirring module works according to the second control parameter.

[0050] In some embodiments, when an instruction to start work is obtained from the user, the frozen food making device is started to start working.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present application, the wall breaking module and the stirring module work alternately, and the total working time of the wall breaking module and the stirring module is the actual working time.

[0052] In some embodiments, the working order of the wall breaking module and the stirring module can be set as needed. For example, the wall breaking module can perform the wall breaking operation first; or the stirring module can perform the stirring operation first.

[0053] In other embodiments, the working order of the wall breaking module and the stirring module can be determined according to the working times of the wall breaking module and the stirring module. For example, the wall breaking times of the wall breaking module can be determined according to the total wall breaking time of the wall breaking module and the preset unit wall breaking time as follows: ; The stirring times of the stirring module can be determined according to the total stirring time of the stirring module and the preset unit stirring time: ; If the number of wall breaking times is greater than the number of stirring times, the wall breaking operation will be performed by the wall breaking module first; if the number of stirring times is greater than the number of wall breaking times, the stirring operation will be performed by the stirring module first.

[0054] During the operation of the wall-breaking module, the wall-breaking module operates according to the first control parameter. During the operation of the stirring module, the stirring module operates according to the second control parameter. Thus, the operation of the stirring module and the wall-breaking module can be controlled according to the conditions of the target finished product to be produced and the amount of the added food raw materials, so that the target finished product of the same quality can be obtained under different amounts, ensuring the consistency of the taste of the target finished product.

[0055] In some embodiments, the first control parameter includes: the total wall breaking time and the preset unit wall breaking time; the second control parameter includes: the total stirring time and the preset unit stirring time, and step 120 may include the following steps.

[0056] (1) Determine the wall breaking ratio and stirring ratio based on the target finished product information.

[0057] (2) Determine the preset unit wall breaking time, preset unit stirring time and preset total working time based on the target finished product information.

[0058] (3) Determine the actual working time based on the initial height information, the bucket height information of the operating bucket and the preset total working time.

[0059] (4) Determine the total wall breaking time and total stirring time based on the actual working time, wall breaking ratio and stirring ratio.

[0060] In the embodiment of the present application, the wall breaking ratio is used to determine the ratio of the time spent on the wall breaking operation in the actual working time. The stirring ratio is used to determine the ratio of the time spent on the stirring operation in the actual working time.

[0061] In the embodiment of the present application, the correspondence between the target finished product information and the wall breaking ratio and the stirring ratio can be preset. For example, multiple experiments can be conducted in advance to obtain the corresponding wall breaking ratio and stirring ratio when different types of finished products are made to the best taste.

[0062] Optionally, the wall breaking ratio and stirring ratio corresponding to the same target finished product information are the same.

[0063] Optionally, the wall breaking ratio and stirring ratio can also be determined in combination with the initial height information, that is, for the same target finished product information, the initial height information is different, and the corresponding wall breaking ratio and stirring ratio are different, thereby refining the production control process of different amounts of raw materials.

[0064] For example, according to the target finished product information, determine the proportion of broken wall and mixing ratio Determine the first control ratio according to the barrel height information H of the operating barrel and the initial height information h And the second control ratio , so the wall breaking ratio is , and mixing ratio The more food raw materials there are, the more difficult it is to break the wall, and the more time can be reserved for the wall breaking operation, thereby ensuring that the wall breaking operation fully breaks the food raw materials, optimizing the material processing flow, and improving the system work efficiency.

[0065] Among them, A=A1+A2, A1>0, A2>0; H≥h, H>0.

[0066] In some implementations, the barrel height information of the operating barrel represents the height of the corresponding food raw materials when the operating barrel contains the most food raw materials.

[0067] In an embodiment of the present application, a correspondence between target finished product information and a preset unit wall breaking time, a preset unit stirring time and a preset total working time can be preset.

[0068] The wall breaking module and the stirring module work alternately, the preset unit wall breaking time represents the working time of each wall breaking operation of the wall breaking module, and the preset unit stirring time represents the working time of each stirring operation of the stirring module. For example, the preset unit wall breaking time is a first time, the preset unit stirring time is a second time, the wall breaking module stops working after executing the wall breaking operation for the first time, and the stirring module starts the stirring operation for the second time.

[0069] The preset total working time is used to indicate the total working time required for the frozen food production equipment to work when the operating barrel is full of materials (i.e. the barrel height information is equal to the initial height of the materials); In some embodiments, initial height information h and target finished product information (assuming ice cream) are obtained through detection. In addition, barrel height information H of a preset operating barrel can be obtained.

[0070] Based on the target finished product information (e.g. yogurt), the cell wall breaking ratio is determined as , mixing ratio is , the preset unit wall breaking time is T1, the preset unit stirring time is T2 and the preset total working time is T.

[0071] Determine the actual working time based on the initial height information h, the bucket height information H of the operating bucket and the preset total working time T .

[0072] Furthermore, according to the actual working time S and the proportion of wall breaking , determine the total time of breaking the wall ; and, total stirring time .

[0073] In some embodiments, the sum of the wall breaking ratio and the stirring ratio is 1, that is, The actual working time S is equal to the sum of the total wall breaking time X and the total stirring time Y.

[0074] For example, the target finished product information is ice cream, the preset total working time T corresponding to ice cream is 120s, the preset unit wall breaking time T1 is 20s, the preset unit stirring time T2 is 4s, the barrel height information H of the operating barrel is 200mm, the initial height information h is 150mm, and the wall breaking ratio is , the mixing ratio is .

[0075] Therefore, the actual working time ; Total time of breaking the wall ;Total stirring time ; During the actual working time, for every 20 seconds of wall breaking operation, the stirring operation is performed for 4 seconds; it can be understood that after the third wall breaking operation is completed, the remaining wall breaking time is 4 seconds, so during the last wall breaking operation, the wall breaking operation is performed for 4 seconds.

[0076] In some implementations, step S120 includes the following steps.

[0077] (1) Get the lid status of the operating barrel; (2) If it is determined according to the state of the barrel cover that the frozen food production equipment meets the working conditions, the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter are determined based on the initial state information.

[0078] The barrel cover information of the operating barrel is used to indicate whether the barrel cover of the operating barrel is in a closed state.

[0079] In some embodiments, the detection module of the frozen food production equipment may include a lid closing detection unit, which may use relevant sensors, such as a Hall sensor, a magnetic induction switch, a photoelectric sensor, etc. The specific selection can be based on actual design needs, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0080] During the working process of the frozen food production equipment, the cutter head rotates quickly. If the user opens the barrel cover to operate during the working process, there will be a safety hazard. To ensure the safety of the user, the working condition can be set to the barrel cover state is in the closed state.

[0081] Therefore, the frozen food production equipment needs to ensure that the barrel cover is in a closed state before performing subsequent operations to ensure the safety of users.

[0082] In some embodiments, the step of if it is determined based on the state of the barrel cover that the frozen food production equipment meets the working conditions, then determining the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter based on the initial state information may include: if it is determined based on the state of the barrel cover and the initial state information that the frozen food production equipment meets the working conditions, then determining the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter based on the initial state information.

[0083] Furthermore, in addition to operating the barrel cover status, other information can also be combined to determine whether the frozen food production equipment meets the working conditions. For example, before the frozen food production equipment works, the height of the food raw materials needs to meet the minimum height to work normally, and the minimum height can be different for different target finished product information. The minimum height can be determined in combination with the target finished product information, and the height of the food raw materials needs to meet the minimum height requirement in combination with the initial height information to meet the working conditions to start.

[0084] In some embodiments, the frozen food production method provided in the embodiments of the present application may further include the step of: obtaining the ambient temperature.

[0085] The step of determining the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter based on the initial state information includes: determining the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter based on the initial state information and the ambient temperature.

[0086] In some embodiments, different ambient temperatures may also affect the quality of frozen foods. If the same control conditions are used, the quality of the finished products may be different. Therefore, the subsequent control process may be regulated in combination with the ambient temperature.

[0087] In some embodiments, when the ambient temperature is greater than a preset temperature threshold range, the speed of the wall breaking machine blade head and the stirring blade head can be increased, and the actual working time, the actual wall breaking work time and the stirring work time can be reduced, thereby ensuring rapid food preparation and preventing the target finished product temperature from being too high due to excessively high ambient temperature.

[0088] In some embodiments, when the ambient temperature is lower than a preset temperature threshold range, the temperature of the raw materials is low, and the difficulty of the wall breaking and stirring operations increases, which can increase the actual working time, the total wall breaking time, and the total stirring time, thereby ensuring that the food can be fully broken and stirred.

[0089] In some embodiments, when the ambient temperature is within a preset temperature range, the actual working time, the first control parameter, and the second control parameter may be determined in combination with the initial state information.

[0090] Exemplarily, the preset temperature threshold range is 10-20°, and the actual working time A1, the first control parameter C1 and the second control parameter C2 are determined according to the initial state information. The specific determination method can refer to the detailed description of the above embodiment.

[0091] When the ambient temperature is 35°C, that is, it exceeds the preset temperature range, the final actual working time can be reduced on the basis of A1, for example, it can be 90%A1; for example, the first control parameter C1 includes the total wall breaking time c1, then the final total wall breaking time can be 90%c1; for example, the second control parameter C2 includes the stirring working time c2, then the final total stirring time can be 90%c2. It can be understood that the present application is not limited to this, and the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter can also be adjusted in other ways, such as linear changes according to the actual ambient temperature value, etc., and the present application does not limit this.

[0092] When the ambient temperature is 15°C, that is, within the preset temperature range, the final actual working time is A1, the final total wall breaking time is c1, and the final total stirring time is c2.

[0093] When the ambient temperature is 5°C, that is, lower than the preset temperature range, the final actual working time is 110%A1, the final total wall breaking time is 110%c1, and the final total stirring time is 110%c2. It is understood that the present application is not limited thereto, and the actual working time, the first control parameter, and the second control parameter can also be adjusted in other ways, such as linearly changing according to the actual ambient temperature value, etc., and the present application does not limit this.

[0094] In some embodiments, during the frozen food production process, the production process can also be regulated according to the actual working environment.

[0095] Exemplarily, the current actual working environment can be determined through real-time detection conditions, which include but are not limited to one or more of the real-time temperature of the operating barrel, the real-time volume of the frozen food production equipment when it is working, and the real-time height information of the operating barrel.

[0096] If the real-time detection condition satisfies the adjustment rule, the actual working time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter are adjusted according to the real-time detection condition and the current working progress.

[0097] The current working progress may include but is not limited to the wall breaking progress of the wall breaking module and the stirring progress of the stirring module.

[0098] Exemplarily, if the real-time temperature exceeds the temperature threshold, the wall breaking progress can be determined according to the ratio between the wall breaking time of the wall breaking module and the total wall breaking time, and the stirring progress can be determined according to the ratio between the stirring time of the stirring module and the total stirring time.

[0099] Then, according to the wall breaking progress and the stirring progress, the blade speed of the wall breaking module and the blade speed of the stirring module are reduced according to the preset adjustment method, and the actual total working time, the total wall breaking time and the total stirring time are extended accordingly. Therefore, the working mode can be adjusted in time during the real-time status of the wall breaking machine, which can effectively avoid damage to the equipment.

[0100] In some embodiments, the target finished product information has corresponding preset food raw materials. If the food raw materials used by the user are different from the preset food raw materials, the quality of the finished product may be affected. To improve the above problem, the type information of the food raw materials actually placed by the user can also be collected, and the actual control duration, the first control parameter and the second control parameter can be determined based on the type information of the food raw materials and the initial state information.

[0101] Specifically, material detection information of the food raw materials in the operation barrel is obtained, and then material distinction information is determined based on the material detection information and the target finished product information, and finally the corresponding actual working time, first control parameter and second control parameter are determined based on the material distinction information and the target finished product information.

[0102] Among them, the material detection information is used to characterize the material type, density, hardness, etc. of the food raw materials placed in the operating barrel; the material difference information is used to indicate the difference between the food raw materials actually placed in the operating barrel and the food raw materials required to produce the target finished product.

[0103] The material difference information includes but is not limited to: material type, density, type, hardness, etc. of the food raw materials. According to the difference between the actual placed food raw materials and the preset food raw materials, the subsequent control process is further accurately regulated.

[0104] In some embodiments, the actual control time, the first control parameter and the second control parameter can be determined according to the material distinction information and the target finished product information through a pre-trained model.

[0105] The following will describe in detail the frozen food preparation method provided in the embodiment of the present application with a specific example.

[0106] See also Figure 2 , Figure 2 FIG. 2 is a flow chart of another method for making frozen food provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 As shown, the frozen food production method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes steps 201 to 213.

[0107] Step 201: determine whether the barrel cover is in a closed state.

[0108] To ensure user safety, when the barrel cover is confirmed to be in the closed state, step 202 is executed. When the barrel cover is confirmed to be in the open state, the user is waited to add food raw materials and close the cover, and the barrel cover state is regularly checked.

[0109] Step 202: Obtain initial height information.

[0110] When the barrel cover is in the closed state, the detection module can start detection to determine the height of the food raw materials to determine the amount of food raw materials added by the user.

[0111] Step 203: determine whether the height of the food raw material meets the minimum height requirement.

[0112] When the barrel cover is in the closed state, the user may not add food raw materials, or the amount of food raw materials added is too small to meet the equipment startup requirements. Therefore, it can be judged whether the height of the food raw materials meets the minimum height requirement. The initial height information can be compared with the preset minimum height. When it is determined that the height of the food raw materials meets the minimum height requirement, step 204 is executed. When it is determined that the height of the food raw materials does not meet the minimum height requirement, the user can be reminded to add enough food raw materials.

[0113] Step 204: Obtain target finished product information.

[0114] The target finished product information input by the user can be obtained through the detection module.

[0115] Step 205: Determine whether to start the work.

[0116] When it is confirmed that the user has sent the start instruction, the start work is determined and step 206 is executed.

[0117] Step 206, start the wall breaking module.

[0118] In the embodiment of the present application, the wall breaking module is first started to perform the wall breaking operation.

[0119] Step 207: Determine whether the unit wall-breaking time has been reached.

[0120] After the wall breaking module starts working, the working time of a single wall breaking operation of the wall breaking module is timed. When it is determined that the working time of a single wall breaking operation of the wall breaking module reaches the unit wall breaking time, it is determined that one wall breaking operation is completed, and step 208 is executed.

[0121] Step 208: Determine whether the total wall-breaking time has been reached.

[0122] The total working time of the wall breaking module is counted. When it is determined that the total working time of the wall breaking module reaches the total wall breaking time, steps 209 to 211 are executed; otherwise, steps 212 to 213 are executed.

[0123] It is understandable that during the operation of the wall breaking module, the state of the barrel cover is detected at the same time, and when the barrel cover is detected to be in an open state, the operation of the frozen food production equipment is terminated.

[0124] Step 209: Start the stirring module.

[0125] The stirring module and the wall breaking module work alternately. After a wall breaking operation is completed, the stirring module is started to work.

[0126] Step 210: Determine whether the unit stirring time has been reached.

[0127] After the stirring module starts working, the working time of a single stirring operation of the stirring module is timed. When it is determined that the working time of a single stirring operation of the stirring module reaches the unit stirring time, it is determined that one stirring operation is completed, and step 211 is executed.

[0128] Step 211, determine whether the total stirring time has been reached.

[0129] The total working time of the stirring module is counted, and when it is determined that the total working time of the stirring module does not reach the total stirring time, the process returns to execute steps 206 to 211 .

[0130] Step 212: Start the stirring module.

[0131] After the stirring module starts working, since the wall breaking module has reached the total wall breaking time, there is no need to work. At this time, the total working time of the stirring module is counted. When it is determined that the total working time of the stirring module has not reached the total stirring time, return to execute step 212.

[0132] It is understandable that during the operation of the stirring module, the state of the barrel cover is detected at the same time, and when the barrel cover is detected to be in an open state, the operation of the frozen food making equipment is terminated.

[0133] See also Figure 3 , Figure 3A frozen food production device 300 provided in an embodiment of the present application is shown, which works using the above-mentioned frozen food production method. The device 300 includes: a shell 310, an operating barrel 320, a stirring module 330, a wall breaking module 340, a detection module 350 and a control module 360.

[0136] The stirring module 330 includes a stirring blade and a stirring motor. The stirring motor is used to drive the stirring blade to rotate so as to achieve a stirring operation on food raw materials.

[0137] The wall breaking module 340 includes a wall breaking blade head and a wall breaking motor. The wall breaking motor is used to drive the wall breaking blade head to rotate so as to realize the wall breaking operation of food raw materials.

[0140] In some embodiments, the detection module 350 includes a first detection unit and a second detection unit, the first detection unit is used to detect target finished product information, and the second detection unit is used to detect initial height information through ultrasonic waves.

[0141] The first detection unit may obtain the target finished product information by interacting with the user or by communicating with the user terminal.

[0142] For example, the first detection unit may include but is not limited to a button unit, a sound unit, a display unit, and other units that can interact with the user, and obtain the target finished product information input by the user by interacting with the user.

[0143] The second detection unit can use ultrasonic technology to detect the height. For example, a detection ultrasonic wave can be emitted to the operation barrel 320, and the detection ultrasonic wave propagates in the food raw materials in the operation barrel 320. When encountering a boundary surface, it will be emitted to form an emission ultrasonic wave. The second detection unit receives the emission ultrasonic wave, determines the time interval from emission to reception of the ultrasonic wave and the propagation speed of the ultrasonic wave in the solid mixture, and can calculate the height of the food raw materials in the operation barrel 320, thereby determining the initial height information.

[0144] In some implementations, the detection module 350 may further include other components.

[0145] For example, the detection module 350 may also include a lid closing detection unit, which is arranged on the barrel lid, and detects the closing state of the barrel lid through the lid closing detection unit. The lid closing detection unit may use relevant sensors, such as a Hall sensor, a magnetic induction switch, a photoelectric sensor, etc.

[0146] For example, the detection module 350 may further include an image detection unit, which is disposed in the operating barrel 320 and acquires images of food raw materials through the image detection unit.

[0147] For example, the detection module 350 may further include a temperature detection unit, which is disposed in the operating barrel 320 , and the ambient temperature or the real-time temperature of the operating barrel is acquired through the temperature detection unit.

[0148] For example, the detection module 350 may further include a volume detection unit, which is disposed in the operation barrel 320 , and the current working volume of the operation barrel 320 is acquired through the volume detection unit.

[0149] It is understandable that the present application is not limited thereto, and the frozen food making equipment 300 may also include other necessary components, such as a condenser, a power module, and the like.
