Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of heat preservation dining stoves, and in particular to an intelligent control method and system for heat preservation dining stoves used in self-service restaurants. Background Art
[0002] Keeping dishes warm in buffet restaurants is always a challenge. Dishes containing soups, in particular, can suffer from uneven temperatures and taste issues during the heat preservation process. While the soup portion of a dish can be well insulated, the exposed solid portion is susceptible to airborne influences, leading to evaporation and drying, impacting the dish's quality. Furthermore, improper temperature and humidity control can cause dishes to spoil due to excessive moisture, or compromise their taste due to excessive temperatures. Therefore, maintaining stable temperature and humidity while avoiding excessive drying or dampness has become a pressing issue in the restaurant industry.
[0003] Existing technologies mainly focus on temperature control, but due to differences in soup-water ratios and the diversity of dish types, simple temperature control often cannot meet actual needs; therefore, a more detailed and intelligent temperature and humidity adjustment solution is needed to meet the needs of different dishes. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present application provides an intelligent control method and system for a heat-insulating dining stove for a self-service restaurant to solve the above-mentioned problems.
[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides an intelligent control system for a heat preservation dining stove for a self-service restaurant, comprising a heat preservation dining stove and a control chip;
[0006] The heat preservation dining stove includes a radio frequency identification tag; the control chip includes a data acquisition module, a data analysis module and a control module;
[0007] The radio frequency identification tag, the data acquisition module, the data analysis module and the control module are connected in sequence;
[0008] The radio frequency identification tag is used to store the dish information of the heat preservation dining stove and send it to the data acquisition module; the data acquisition module is used to send the dish information to the data analysis module;
[0009] The data analysis module is used to analyze the dish information, determine the dish type and the dish soup ratio; and determine the control strategy based on the dish type and the dish soup ratio, and send the control strategy to the control module so that the control module performs temperature and humidity control according to the control strategy.
[0010] This solution uniquely identifies each dish by installing RFID tags in the heat preservation oven. The RFID tags transmit the stored dish information to the data acquisition module, ensuring the real-time and accuracy of dish information. The data analysis module conducts in-depth analysis of the dish information, identifying the characteristics of different dishes and providing a basis for developing personalized temperature and humidity control strategies. Based on the analysis results, a temperature and humidity control strategy tailored to the dish is formulated to ensure that the dish remains in optimal condition during the heat preservation process. By monitoring the temperature and humidity inside the heat preservation oven in real time, the heat preservation strategy can be adjusted promptly to prevent the degradation of dish quality caused by improper temperature and humidity.
[0011] Optionally, the heat preservation dining oven includes a plurality of electrode sheets, which are arranged on the bottom and any wall of the heat preservation dining oven and are connected to the data acquisition module, and are used to obtain moisture content information of the dishes in the heat preservation dining oven and send it to the data acquisition module;
[0012] When analyzing the dish information and determining the dish type and the soup-water ratio of the dish, the data analysis module is used to: analyze the dish information and determine the dish type and dish preparation data;
[0013] Determining the height of the soup after placing the dish based on the moisture content information;
[0014] Determining the actual water content according to the dish preparation data and the soup height;
[0015] The soup-water ratio of the dish is determined according to the actual water content.
[0016] This solution enables electrodes to monitor the moisture content of dishes in real time, providing a data foundation for temperature and humidity control. This ensures that moisture content information is accurately transmitted to the data acquisition module. By monitoring moisture content in real time, the module can promptly respond to moisture changes and maintain the freshness and taste of dishes. The data acquisition module efficiently collects moisture content information, providing data support for data analysis. The data analysis module accurately processes moisture content information, providing a basis for formulating temperature and humidity control strategies. By analyzing moisture content information, dish type and production data can be accurately identified, providing a reference for personalized temperature and humidity control. Estimating the level of water in the insulated dining oven helps better control the humidity inside the insulated dining oven, preventing dishes from drying out and losing their freshness. Calculating the actual moisture content allows for precise adjustment of the humidity inside the insulated dining oven, ensuring the taste and quality of the dishes. Determining the water-to-water ratio allows for personalized temperature and humidity control tailored to the characteristics of the dish, maintaining its freshness and taste.
[0017] Optionally, the heat preservation dining stove further comprises a humidifying device, which comprises a water storage box and an atomizer;
[0018] The humidifying device is connected to the control module. When the control module performs temperature and humidity control according to the control strategy, it is used to send a start signal to the humidifying device. After receiving the start signal, the humidifying device is used to parse the start signal, determine the atomization intensity and humidification time, and perform humidification according to the atomization intensity and the humidification time.
[0019] Through this solution, the humidifier can provide the necessary humidity for the insulated dining oven, preventing dishes from losing their freshness due to drying out. Ensure that the control module can send a start signal to the humidifier to achieve precise control of the humidification process. The control module can monitor the temperature and humidity inside the insulated dining oven in real time to ensure that the temperature and humidity are always maintained within the optimal range. The control module can promptly send a start signal to the humidifier based on changes in temperature and humidity, achieving dynamic adjustment of temperature and humidity. The humidifier can accurately interpret the start signal to ensure that the humidification operation is carried out according to the instructions of the control module. The humidifier can perform appropriate humidification operations according to the instructions of the control module to maintain the freshness and taste of the dishes.
[0020] Optionally, the heat preservation dining stove further includes a temperature and humidity sensor for obtaining the temperature and humidity of the dish, which is connected to the data acquisition module;
[0021] The heat-insulating dining stove further comprises a weight sensing device for sensing weight changes of the heat-insulating dining stove and sending the sensed weight data to the data acquisition module.
[0022] This solution enables real-time acquisition of temperature and humidity data for dishes in the insulated dining oven, providing essential information for temperature and humidity control. It ensures timely and accurate transmission of temperature and humidity data to the data acquisition module. It also monitors weight changes in the insulated dining oven in real time, providing data support for dish weight management. It ensures weight data is transmitted to the data acquisition module, providing a data foundation for dish weight analysis. Real-time monitoring enables timely response to temperature and humidity changes, maintaining the freshness and taste of dishes. Real-time monitoring of weight changes allows identification of dish consumption and timely replenishment or adjustment of dishes.
[0023] Optionally, after the data acquisition module sends the dish temperature, humidity and weight data to the data analysis module, the data analysis module is specifically configured to analyze the weight data to determine whether there is a sudden increase in weight;

[0028] After the data analysis module sends the food ventilation strategy to the control module, the control module is specifically used to control the opening and closing of the hatch according to the food ventilation strategy.
[0029] This solution ensures real-time collection of temperature, humidity, and weight data for dishes within the insulated dining oven. It also enables smooth data transmission from the data acquisition module to the data analysis module. Sudden increases in dish weight, caused by customers taking or refilling dishes, can be detected, providing a basis for adjusting temperature and humidity. Based on the time of the sudden weight increase and the corresponding temperature and humidity data, the dish's initial temperature and humidity can be inferred, providing a reference for maintaining dish freshness. Determining the optimal serving temperature based on the dish type helps enhance the customer's dining experience. Based on the optimal serving temperature and the dish's initial temperature and humidity, an appropriate ventilation strategy is determined to maintain the dish's optimal condition. The ventilation strategy is transmitted to the control module, providing instructions for actually controlling the hatch opening and closing. The control module receives and prepares to execute the ventilation strategy, preparing to open and close the hatch. Based on the ventilation strategy, the control module actually controls the hatch opening and closing, adjusting the ventilation within the insulated dining oven to maintain optimal temperature and humidity for the dishes.
[0030] Optionally, when the data analysis module determines the ventilation strategy for the dish based on the optimal eating temperature and the initial temperature and humidity of the dish, it is used to:
[0031] Determining the optimal dish state according to the dish type;
[0032] Obtain historical dining times, and determine dish placement times based on the transmission time and the historical dining times;
[0033] Determine the heat preservation time according to the time when the dishes are placed;
[0034] The dish ventilation strategy is determined based on the heat preservation time, the optimal dish state, the optimal eating temperature and the initial temperature and humidity of the dish.
[0035] This solution determines optimal serving conditions based on dish type, guiding the temperature and humidity control of the heat preservation oven. By capturing historical dining times, peak customer demand can be predicted, allowing for pre-emptive adjustments to the oven's temperature and humidity settings. Calculating the time dishes have been in the oven helps plan the holding time, ensuring dishes are served to customers in optimal conditions. Determining the holding time based on dish placement effectively controls the temperature and humidity of dishes, preventing quality degradation caused by excessive holding. Initial temperature and humidity data is captured upon placement of dishes in the oven. Based on the dish's type and characteristics, the optimal serving temperature range is determined, guiding the oven's temperature control. By comparing the current temperature and humidity, the gap between the optimal state and the current state is assessed, and the required temperature and humidity adjustments are calculated. The ventilation time required to achieve the optimal serving temperature is calculated, ensuring dishes reach their optimal state within the specified timeframe. Based on the ventilation time and the required temperature and humidity adjustments, the ventilation intensity is determined to ensure effective ventilation. A dish ventilation strategy is developed based on comprehensive consideration of insulation time, optimal serving temperature, initial temperature and humidity, ventilation time, and ventilation intensity to guide the operation of the insulation dining stove.
[0036] Optionally, when the data analysis module determines the ventilation strategy for the dish based on the heat preservation time, the optimal dish state, the optimal edible temperature, and the initial temperature and humidity of the dish, it is used to:

[0038] Determining the optimal exposed temperature and humidity of the exposed portion of the dish according to the optimal dish state;
[0039] Determining ventilation time according to the heat preservation time and the optimal serving temperature;
[0040] Determining ventilation intensity according to the initial temperature and humidity of the dish, the optimal exposure temperature and humidity, and ventilation time;
[0041] The ventilation time and the ventilation intensity are determined as the dish ventilation strategy.
[0042] This solution ensures that dishes remain in optimal condition throughout the entire insulation process, avoiding quality degradation caused by over-insulation. Based on the characteristics of the dishes and customer preferences, set standards for optimal dish conditions to guide the development of insulation and ventilation strategies. Ensure that dishes are served to customers within the optimal serving temperature range, improving the taste and customer satisfaction. Obtain the initial temperature and humidity data when the dishes are placed in the insulation dining oven. Based on the difference between the initial temperature and humidity and the optimal serving temperature, calculate the temperature and humidity values that need to be adjusted. Calculate the ventilation time required to achieve the optimal serving temperature to ensure that the dishes reach their optimal condition within the specified time. Based on the ventilation time and the temperature and humidity values that need to be adjusted, determine the ventilation operation intensity to ensure ventilation effectiveness and avoid excessively high or low temperatures and excessive or low humidity. Develop a specific ventilation strategy to guide the operation of the insulation dining oven and ensure that dishes always remain in optimal condition during the insulation process.
[0043] Optionally, the heat preservation dining stove further includes an indicator light connected to the data analysis module, for obtaining the heat preservation time analyzed by the data analysis module; and starting timing according to the heat preservation time and the transmission time of the weight data;
[0044] When the timing exceeds the heat preservation time, the indicator light lights up.
[0045] Through this solution, the holding time can be accurately calculated based on the characteristics of the dishes and environmental conditions. By transmitting weight data, the weight changes of the dishes can be monitored in real time. A communication channel is established between the data analysis module and the indicator light so that the indicator light can receive and display the holding time. Once the indicator light obtains the holding time, it can start timing, providing intuitive time monitoring for the staff. The indicator light starts timing to ensure that the entire process from the time the dish is placed in the holding furnace to the end of the holding is under control. When the timing exceeds the holding time, it automatically identifies and prepares to take corresponding measures such as issuing an alarm or prompting a signal. The indicator light lights up, providing a clear visual signal that the holding time has expired and the dish needs to be checked or removed.
[0046] Optionally, the heat-insulating dining stove further includes a heating device, and the heating device is connected to the data analysis module;
[0047] The data analysis module is used to determine whether there is a danger in taking the dish according to the dish type and the optimal eating temperature;

Based on the time of the sudden weight increase and the corresponding temperature and humidity data, the dish's initial temperature and humidity can be inferred, providing a reference for maintaining dish freshness. Determining the optimal serving temperature based on the dish type helps enhance the customer's dining experience. Based on the optimal serving temperature and the dish's initial temperature and humidity, an appropriate ventilation strategy is determined to maintain the dish's optimal condition. The ventilation strategy is transmitted to the control module, providing instructions for actually controlling the hatch opening and closing. The control module receives and prepares to execute the ventilation strategy, preparing to open and close the hatch. Based on the ventilation strategy, the control module actually controls the hatch opening and closing, adjusting the ventilation within the insulated dining oven to maintain optimal temperature and humidity for the dishes.

[0141] The optimal state of a dish can be the ideal state of temperature, humidity, taste, color, aroma, etc. that the dish should maintain when it is served to customers.
[0142] The historical dining time may be dining time data such as the peak dining time and average dining time of customers in a buffet restaurant over a period of time in the past.
[0143] The transmission time can be the time interval from when the dish is prepared in the kitchen to when it is placed in the heat-insulating dining oven 21 .

Based on the dish's transfer time and historical dining times, the data analysis module calculates the dish's placement time in the heat-insulating dining oven 21. The data analysis module 222 determines the heat-insulating time based on the dish's placement time to ensure that the dish is served to the customer in optimal condition. The data analysis module 222 obtains initial temperature and humidity data from the temperature and humidity sensor 26 when the dish is placed in the heat-insulating dining oven 21. Based on the dish's type and characteristics, the data analysis module determines the optimal serving temperature range. The data analysis module 222 compares the dish's initial temperature and humidity with the optimal serving temperature to assess the difference between the current temperature and humidity conditions and the optimal serving temperature. Based on the difference between the initial temperature and humidity and the optimal serving temperature, the data analysis module 222 calculates the temperature and humidity values that need to be adjusted. Based on the heat-insulating time and the required temperature and humidity adjustments, the data analysis module 222 calculates the ventilation time required to achieve the optimal serving temperature.

[0147] This solution determines optimal serving conditions based on dish type, guiding the temperature and humidity control of the heat preservation oven. By capturing historical dining times, peak customer demand can be predicted, allowing for pre-emptive adjustments to the oven's temperature and humidity settings. Calculating the time dishes have been in the oven helps plan the holding time, ensuring dishes are served to customers in optimal conditions. Determining the holding time based on dish placement effectively controls the temperature and humidity of dishes, preventing quality degradation caused by excessive holding. Initial temperature and humidity data is captured upon placement of dishes in the oven. Based on the dish's type and characteristics, the optimal serving temperature range is determined, guiding the oven's temperature control. By comparing the current temperature and humidity, the gap between the optimal state and the current state is assessed, and the required temperature and humidity adjustments are calculated. The ventilation time required to achieve the optimal serving temperature is calculated, ensuring dishes reach their optimal state within the specified timeframe. Based on the ventilation time and the required temperature and humidity adjustments, the ventilation intensity is determined to ensure effective ventilation. A dish ventilation strategy is developed based on comprehensive consideration of insulation time, optimal serving temperature, initial temperature and humidity, ventilation time, and ventilation intensity to guide the operation of the insulation dining stove.

[0149] The exposed area of the dish may refer to the surface area of the dish exposed to the air in the heat-insulating dining stove 21 .
[0150] The exposed portion of the dish may be a portion of the dish that is not covered or enclosed and is directly exposed to the air in the heat-insulating dining oven 21 .
[0151] The optimal exposed temperature and humidity can be the optimal temperature and humidity conditions that should be maintained in the exposed area of the dishes.
[0152] The ventilation time may be the length of time that ventilation is performed in the heat-insulating dining oven 21 in order to maintain the dishes in the best state.
[0153] Ventilation intensity can be the intensity or rate of a fan's speed or humidifier output during operation.
[0154] Specifically, the exposed area of the dish is determined based on the dish's soup-to-water ratio. The dish's soup-to-water ratio after preparation can be determined based on the dish's production data. Once the soup-to-water ratio is determined, the proportion of the dish's solids immersed in the soup can be determined from the soup's height, thereby determining the exposed state of the solids and estimating the exposed area (e.g., whether the solids are stacked in a mountainous shape or flat in the soup). The optimal serving temperature range is set based on the dish's characteristics and customer preferences. The temperature and humidity sensor 26 obtains initial temperature and humidity data when the dish is placed in the heat-insulating dining oven 21. The required temperature and humidity adjustments are calculated based on the difference between the initial temperature and humidity and the optimal serving temperature. The ventilation time required to achieve the optimal serving temperature is calculated based on the holding time and the required temperature and humidity adjustments. The ventilation intensity is determined based on the ventilation time and the required temperature and humidity adjustments. A specific ventilation strategy is developed based on the holding time, optimal dish state, optimal serving temperature, initial temperature and humidity, ventilation time, and ventilation intensity.
[0155] This solution ensures that dishes remain in optimal condition throughout the entire insulation process, avoiding quality degradation caused by over-insulation. Based on the characteristics of the dishes and customer preferences, set standards for optimal dish conditions to guide the development of insulation and ventilation strategies. Ensure that dishes are served to customers within the optimal serving temperature range, improving the taste and customer satisfaction. Obtain the initial temperature and humidity data when the dishes are placed in the insulation dining oven. Based on the difference between the initial temperature and humidity and the optimal serving temperature, calculate the temperature and humidity values that need to be adjusted. Calculate the ventilation time required to achieve the optimal serving temperature to ensure that the dishes reach their optimal condition within the specified time. Based on the ventilation time and the temperature and humidity values that need to be adjusted, determine the ventilation operation intensity to ensure ventilation effectiveness and avoid excessively high or low temperatures and excessive or low humidity. Develop a specific ventilation strategy to guide the operation of the insulation dining oven and ensure that dishes always remain in optimal condition during the insulation process.
[0156] Optionally, the heat-insulating dining stove 21 further includes an indicator light, which is connected to the data analysis module 222 and is used to obtain the heat-insulating time analyzed by the data analysis module 222; and starts timing according to the heat-insulating time and the transmission time of the weight data; when the timing exceeds the heat-insulating time, the indicator light lights up.
[0157] An indicator light may be an electronic device used to provide a visual signal of a certain status or condition.
[0158] Specifically, the data analysis module calculates the required holding time based on information such as the dish's characteristics, initial temperature and humidity, and optimal serving temperature. A weight sensor measures the dish's weight and transmits the data to the data analysis module. An indicator light is connected to the data analysis module to receive the holding time data. The indicator light obtains the calculated holding time from the data analysis module. The indicator light starts counting based on the calculated holding time and the transmission time of the weight data. If the indicator light timer exceeds the predetermined holding time, the indicator light illuminates, issuing an alarm or warning signal.
[0159] Through this solution, the holding time can be accurately calculated based on the characteristics of the dishes and environmental conditions. By transmitting weight data, the weight changes of the dishes can be monitored in real time. A communication channel is established between the data analysis module and the indicator light so that the indicator light can receive and display the holding time. Once the indicator light obtains the holding time, it can start timing, providing intuitive time monitoring for the staff. The indicator light starts timing to ensure that the entire process from the time the dish is placed in the holding furnace to the end of the holding is under control. When the timing exceeds the holding time, it automatically identifies and prepares to take corresponding measures such as issuing an alarm or prompting a signal. The indicator light lights up, providing a clear visual signal that the holding time has expired and the dish needs to be checked or removed.

[0167] Specifically, the heating device 27 is connected to the data analysis module to ensure smooth data transmission and command control. The data analysis module receives and processes information about the type of dish and the optimal serving temperature. Based on the dish type and the optimal serving temperature, the data analysis module evaluates whether it is dangerous to pick up the dish under the current conditions. If there is a danger, the dish is appropriately adjusted according to the optimal exposed temperature and humidity conditions. The temperature and humidity settings in the heat preservation dining stove 21 are stored. The data analysis module compares the optimal serving temperature and the optimal exposed temperature and humidity to determine whether heating is required. If heating is required, the data analysis module calculates the temperature difference between the optimal serving temperature and the current optimal exposed temperature and humidity. The data acquisition module collects performance information such as heating power and heating efficiency from the heating device 27.
