[0070] In order to better understand the above-mentioned technical scheme, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application is described in detail below through the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments of the present application and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application, rather than limitations on the technical scheme of the present application. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the technical features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0071] See also Figure 1 , is a structural schematic diagram of a handheld blender provided in an embodiment of the present application, which may specifically include:

[0072] The body 101 is used to connect the stirring assembly;

[0073] The indicating unit 102 is disposed on the body 101 . When the body 101 is connected to the stirring assembly, the indicating unit 102 is used to display the rotation speed information of the stirring assembly.

[0074] Illustratively, the handheld blender provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a body 101 and an indication unit 102. The body 101 is used to connect a blending component. When a user clicks a corresponding button on the body 101 or selects a corresponding blending function through a touch screen, the motor in the body 101 rotates, and the motor drives the blending component connected to the body 101 to rotate together. The blending component extends into the food, and the food can be blended and processed through the rotation of the blending component, completing tasks such as beating eggs, frothing milk, and crushing.

[0075] The handheld blender provided in the embodiment of the present application also includes an indication unit 102, which has the function of displaying the rotation speed information of the blending component. The indication unit 102 can not only display the rotation speed of the blender in real time during the operation of the handheld blender, so that the user can understand and adjust the rotation speed in real time. The indication unit 102 can also display whether the blending component of the handheld blender has stopped rotating when the handheld blender stops working, thereby preventing the user from lifting the handheld blender while the blending component continues to rotate under inertia, causing the food to splash, thereby improving the user experience.

[0076] In summary, the handheld blender proposed in the embodiment of the present application is provided with an indication unit 102 on the body 101, and the indication unit 102 can display the rotation speed information of the blending component connected to the body 101, so that the user can obtain the real-time rotation speed of the blender in the working process by observing the indication unit 102 when using the handheld blender, which is convenient for controlling the rotation speed of the blender. At the same time, after the blender finishes working, the user can also determine whether the blending component has stopped rotating by observing the indication unit 102, which can effectively avoid the phenomenon that the user uses the blender too early, causing the food to splash.

[0077] In some examples, the indication unit 102 includes:

[0078] Indicator light 1022, used to display the rotation speed information of the stirring component through at least one of brightness, color and flashing frequency; and / or,

[0079] The indicator light strip 1021 is used to display the rotation speed information of the stirring component through at least one of brightness, color, illuminated area and flashing frequency.

[0080] Exemplarily, the indication unit 102 may include an indicator light 1022, and the light-emitting part of the indicator light 1022 can display the light to the user through the corresponding hole position on the fuselage 101. The indicator light 1022 can display the speed information of the stirring component through brightness, color, or flashing frequency. The blender can display the speed information of the stirring component through the change of the brightness of the indicator light 1022, for example: the greater the brightness, the greater the corresponding speed. The blender can also indicate the speed information through the color of the indicator light 1022, for example: in the order of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, different speeds are set for different colors, and the red speed can be set to be the highest, the purple speed can be set to be the slowest, and the speed can be reduced in sequence. The blender can also display the speed information through the flashing frequency of the indicator light 1022, for example: the faster the flashing frequency, the faster the speed. The indicator light can be an LED lamp, which has the advantages of low energy consumption, long service life, no harmful elements, no electromagnetic interference, narrow bandwidth, pure color, and no stray light.

[0081] The indication unit 102 may also include an indicator light strip 1021, which may display the rotation speed information of the stirring component by brightness, color, or flashing frequency. The blender may display the rotation speed information of the stirring component by the change in the brightness of the indicator light strip 1021, for example: the greater the brightness, the greater the corresponding rotation speed. The blender may also indicate the rotation speed information by the color of the indicator light strip 1021, for example: in the order of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, different rotation speeds may be set for different colors, and the red speed may be set to be the highest, the purple speed may be the slowest, and the speed may be reduced in sequence. The rotation speed information may also be displayed according to the flashing frequency of the indicator light strip 1021, for example: the faster the flashing frequency, the faster the rotation speed. The blender may also display the rotation speed information by the area of ​​the illuminated area, for example: the indicator light strip 1021 is a luminous body with a certain width and length, and the area of ​​the illuminated area may be changed, for example: the larger the area of ​​the illuminated area, the greater the rotation speed of the stirring component. The indicator light strip may be in the form of a combination of multiple LED lights, which may provide uniform and soft light. LED has the advantages of low energy consumption, long service life, no harmful elements, no electromagnetic interference, narrow bandwidth, pure color, and no stray light.

[0082] In summary, the handheld blender provided in the embodiment of the present application displays the rotation speed information of the blending component through the indicator light 1022, and the user can quickly obtain the rotation speed of the blending component of the handheld blender through the display effects of one or more combinations of the brightness, color and flashing frequency of the indicator light 1022. The rotation speed information of the blending component can also be displayed through the indicator light strip 1021, and the user can quickly obtain the rotation speed of the blending component of the handheld blender through the display effects of one or more combinations of the brightness, lit area, color and flashing frequency of the indicator light strip.

[0083] In some examples, the indication unit 102 includes:

[0084] The indicator screen 1023 is used to display the rotation speed information of the stirring component through at least one of brightness, color, area of ​​the indicator mark and characters.

[0085] Exemplarily, the indication unit 102 may include an indication screen 1023, which may be disposed on the top of the fuselage 101 or on the side of the fuselage 101. The indication screen 1023 may display the rotation speed information of the stirring component through brightness, color, area of ​​the indication mark, or characters. The blender may display the rotation speed information of the stirring component through changes in the brightness of the indication screen 1023, for example: the greater the brightness, the greater the corresponding rotation speed. The blender may also indicate the rotation speed information through the color of the indication screen 1023, for example: in the order of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple, different rotation speeds may be set for different colors, and the red speed may be set to be the highest, the purple speed to be the slowest, and the speeds may be reduced in sequence. The blender may also display the rotation speed information according to the flashing frequency of the indication screen 1023, for example: the faster the flashing frequency, the faster the rotation speed. The mixer can also display the speed information by the area of ​​the indicator mark. The indicator mark can be displayed on a specific area of ​​the indicator screen 1023. For example, the indicator mark can be a bar graph or a sector graph. The larger the area of ​​the bar graph or the sector graph, the higher the speed of the mixing component. For example, the mixer can also display the speed information by the number of indicator marks, such as Figure 2 As shown, the indicator mark can be an arrow mark, and the more arrow marks there are, the faster the speed is. The mixer can also display the speed information through characters, and the characters can be Chinese characters such as: very fast, faster, fast, medium, slow and stop, or abbreviations of words or characters in other languages, or specific values ​​of the speed, etc. It is understandable that the indicator screen can be a digital tube, TN screen, dot matrix screen, broken code screen, TFT screen, STN screen, LED screen or OLED screen, etc.

[0086] In summary, the handheld blender proposed in the embodiment of the present application displays the rotation speed information of the stirring component through the indicator screen 1023, and the user can quickly obtain the rotation speed of the stirring component of the handheld blender through one or more display effects of the brightness of the indicator screen, the area, color and characters of the indicator mark.

[0087] In some examples, the indicator light strip 1021 is wrapped around the body 101 .

[0088] Exemplarily, the indicator light strip 1021 can be wrapped around the fuselage 101, and the fuselage 101 can be a cylinder, and the indicator light strip 1021 is an annular light strip wrapped around the fuselage 101. It is understandable that the indicator light strip can also be other shapes. If the fuselage 101 is a prism, the indicator light strip 1021 can be a light strip wrapped around the circumference that fits the outer surface of the prism. By wrapping the indicator light strip 1021 around the fuselage 101, the user can observe the display effect of the light strip at all angles when using the blender, and can obtain the speed information of the blender at all angles, thereby improving the user experience. The indicator light strip can be in the form of a combination of multiple LED lights, which can provide uniform and soft light. LED has the advantages of low energy consumption, long service life, no harmful elements, no electromagnetic interference, narrow bandwidth, pure color, and no stray light.

[0089] In some examples, the indicating unit 102 is close to the body 101 and is used to connect to one end of the stirring assembly.

[0090] For example, when the user is cooking, the user's vision will usually be focused on the part where the stirring component contacts the food, that is, most of the vision will fall on the lower half of the body 101 and the position of the stirring component. The indication unit 102 is set at one end close to the stirring component. The user can easily observe the display effect of the indication unit 102 without adjusting the viewing angle during the cooking process, and can easily obtain the rotation speed of the stirring component, thereby improving the user's use effect during the cooking process.

[0091] In some examples, this also includes:

[0092] A rotation speed sensor, used for detecting the rotation speed information of the stirring assembly when the body 101 is connected to the stirring assembly;

[0093] The controller is used to control the display status of the above-mentioned indication unit 102 based on the above-mentioned rotation speed information.

[0094] For example, the rotation speed information of the handheld blender can be directly measured by a rotation speed sensor, which sends the measured rotation speed information to the controller, and the controller uses the rotation speed information to control the display state of the indicator unit 102. The user obtains the rotation speed of the blending component of the blender by observing the display state of the indicator unit 102.

[0095] According to a second aspect of the embodiment of the present application, a display control method is proposed, such as Figure 3 As shown, for a hand blender with an indicating unit, the method comprises:

[0096] S210, obtaining the working status information of the mixer;

[0097] Exemplarily, the working state information includes the working mode information, start-stop state information and speed information of the blender. The working mode information includes an intermittent whipping mode and a continuous whipping mode. The intermittent whipping mode includes pulse whipping, tapping, etc. The start-stop state includes a working state and a stopped working state. The blender is in a working state when the drive motor is working, and is in a stopped working state when the drive motor is not working. The speed information of the blender can be obtained in real time through a corresponding sensor. The sensor can be a speed sensor or a torque sensor. The speed information of the blender can also be obtained through a time and speed curve corresponding to a predetermined working procedure. The speed information of the blender can also be obtained by obtaining the force information of the user touching the corresponding switch, and through the correspondence between the force information and the speed information.

[0098] S220: Control the display effect of the indication unit based on the working status information.

[0099] Exemplarily, the display effect of the indication unit is controlled according to one or more of the working mode information, the start / stop status information and the speed information. The display effect of the indication unit may include brightness, lit area, color and flashing frequency, etc.

[0100] In summary, the display control method for a handheld blender with an indicator unit proposed in the embodiment of the present application can display the working status information of the blending component connected to the body, so that the user can obtain the working status of the blender in real time by observing the indicator unit when using the handheld blender, which is convenient for controlling the blender. At the same time, after the blender finishes working, the user can also determine whether the blending component has stopped rotating by observing the indicator unit, which can effectively avoid the phenomenon that the user uses the blender too early, causing the ingredients to splash.

[0101] In some examples, the working status information includes working mode information.

[0102] The above-mentioned control of the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned working status information includes:

[0103] When the above working mode information is the intermittent whipping mode, stop controlling the display effect of the above indicating unit.

[0104] Exemplarily, the working mode information includes an intermittent whipping mode and a continuous whipping mode, and the intermittent whipping mode includes pulse whipping, spot whipping, etc. When the working mode information is in the continuous whipping mode, the display function of the indicating unit is started, and when the working mode information is in the intermittent whipping mode, the display function of the indicating unit is disabled, thereby avoiding frequent changes in the display effect of the indicating unit in the intermittent whipping mode to cause trouble to the user, improving the user experience, and at the same time, being able to extend the service life of the indicating unit to a certain extent.

[0105] In some examples, the working status information includes start-stop status information.

[0106] The above-mentioned control of the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned working status information includes:

[0107] When the start-stop status information is switched from a working state to a stopped working state, the display effect of the indication unit is controlled based on a preset duration.

[0108] Exemplarily, the preset duration is a safety time threshold, which determines when to switch the display effect of the above-mentioned indicator unit. For example, through test data statistics, no matter what kind of food or at what speed, the stirring component stops rotating after 5 seconds. The preset duration can be set to 5 seconds, and the display effect of the indicator unit is switched after 5 seconds. The timing starts when the start-stop status information switches from the working state to the stop working state. After reaching the preset control duration, the display effect of the control indicator unit changes, thereby prompting the user when the blender can be lifted without splashing the food.

[0109] In some examples, the working status information includes rotation speed information.

[0110] The above-mentioned control of the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned working status information includes:

[0111] When the mixer receives a stop operation instruction, the display effect of the indication unit is controlled based on the rotation speed information to indicate whether the mixer stops rotating.

[0112] Exemplarily, the stop working instruction may be issued by a predetermined cooking program, or may be issued by the user by touching a corresponding button or function, or may be triggered by the user loosening a trigger switch. When the blender receives a stop working instruction, the display effect of the indicator unit is controlled by the speed information of the stop working instruction to indicate when the blender's stirring component stops rotating. For example, the color change of the indicator unit may indicate whether the blender has stopped working, that is, whether the stirring component has stopped rotating. For example, red indicates that the stirring component is still rotating, and green indicates that the stirring component has stopped rotating. Or other methods such as text may be used to indicate whether the blender has stopped rotating.

[0113] In summary, with the display control method proposed in the present application, after the blender finishes working, the user can also determine whether the blending component has stopped rotating by observing the indicator unit, which can effectively prevent the user from using the blender too early, causing food to splash.

[0114] In some examples, the working status information includes rotation speed information;

[0115] The above-mentioned control of the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned working status information includes:

[0116] When the mixer is in operation, the display effect of the indication unit is controlled based on the rotation speed information to indicate the real-time rotation speed of the mixer.

[0117] Exemplarily, when the blender is in working state, the display effect of the indicator unit is controlled by the speed information, and the user can obtain the real-time speed of the blender through the display effect of the indicator unit, so that the user can control and adjust the cooking process according to the real-time speed of the blender. For example: in the process of blending ingredients with a handheld blender, a manual control blending method can be used, such as adjusting the speed of the blender by touching the corresponding button. Although the user can control the pressing stroke of the corresponding button by the pressing force, the deeper the pressing stroke, the faster the speed, and the shorter the pressing stroke, the slower the speed. The user can roughly know the speed of the blender, but cannot understand the specific speed of the mixing component through the pressing force. By using the method proposed in the embodiment of the present application, the user can obtain the real-time speed of the blender by observing the display effect of the indicator unit, and adjust the pressing force to make the blender reach the ideal speed.

[0118] In summary, the indication unit can display the rotation speed information of the stirring assembly connected to the body, so that when the user uses the handheld blender, he can obtain the real-time rotation speed of the blender during operation by observing the indication unit, which is convenient for controlling the rotation speed of the blender.

[0119] In some examples, the indication unit includes an indication screen;

[0120] The above-mentioned control of the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned rotation speed information to indicate whether the above-mentioned mixer stops rotating includes:

[0121] Switching the color and / or character of the indicator screen based on the rotation speed information to indicate whether the mixer stops rotating;

[0122] Or, the above-mentioned indicating unit includes an indicator light and / or an indicator light strip;

[0123] The above-mentioned control of the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned rotation speed information to indicate whether the above-mentioned mixer stops rotating includes:

[0124] Based on the rotation speed information, control the color of the indicator light and / or the indicator light strip to indicate whether the mixer stops rotating;

[0125] Or, the above-mentioned indication unit includes an indication screen;

[0126] The above-mentioned method of controlling the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned rotation speed information to indicate the real-time rotation speed of the above-mentioned mixer includes:

[0127] Based on the rotation speed information, at least one of the brightness, color, area and characters of the indicator mark of the indicator screen is controlled to indicate the real-time rotation speed of the mixer.

[0128] Exemplarily, the indicating unit may be an indicating screen, and the color and / or characters of the indicating screen may be switched according to the rotation speed information to show when the mixing component of the blender stops rotating. The indicating screen may be a display screen that can change color, and red may be set to represent the mixing machine rotating, and green may be set to represent the mixing machine stopping rotating. When the user observes that the indicating screen turns green, the blender may be lifted up, and the food ingredients may not splash. The indicating screen may be a display screen that can display characters, for example, the words "run" and "stop" may be displayed. When the user observes that the words displayed on the indicating screen are "stop", the blender stops rotating, and the blender may be lifted up, and the food ingredients may not splash. It is understandable that the indicating screen may be a digital tube, a TN screen, a dot matrix screen, a broken code screen, a TFT screen, an STN screen, an LED screen, or an OLED screen, etc.

[0129] Exemplarily, the indicating unit may be an indicator light, an indicator light strip, or a combination of an indicator light and an indicator light strip. The color of the indicator light or the indicator light strip may be switched according to the rotation speed information to show whether the blender has stopped rotating. The indicator light or the indicator light strip may be a color-changing luminous body. Red may be set to represent the blender rotating, and green may be set to represent the blender stopping. When the user observes that the indicator light or the indicator light strip turns green, the blender may be lifted without splashing ingredients. It is understandable that the indicator light may be an LED lamp. LEDs have the advantages of low energy consumption, long service life, no harmful elements, no electromagnetic interference, narrow bandwidth, pure color, and no stray light. The indicator light strip may be in the form of a combination of multiple LED lights, which can provide uniform and soft light.

[0130] Exemplarily, the indicating unit may be an indicating screen, which may indicate the real-time rotation speed of the above-mentioned mixer according to a combination of one or more of the brightness of the indicating screen, the color of the indicating screen, the area of ​​the indicating mark on the indicating screen, and the characters on the indicating screen. The rotation speed information of the stirring component may be displayed by changing the brightness of the indicating screen, for example: the greater the brightness, the greater the corresponding rotation speed. The rotation speed information may also be indicated by the color of the indicating screen, for example: different rotation speeds may be set for different colors in the order of red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. The red color may be set to have the highest speed, the purple color may be set to have the slowest speed, and the speeds may decrease in sequence. The rotation speed information may also be displayed by the area of ​​the indicating mark. The indicating mark may be displayed on a specific area of ​​the indicating screen. For example, the indicating mark may be a bar graph or a sector graph. The higher the height of the bar graph, the greater the rotation speed of the stirring component, or the larger the area of ​​the sector graph, the greater the rotation speed of the stirring component. For another example, the rotation speed information may also be displayed by the number of indicating marks. The indicating mark may be an arrow mark, such as Figure 2 As shown, the more arrow signs there are, the faster the speed is. The speed information can also be displayed by characters, which can be Chinese characters such as "very fast", "faster", "fast", "medium", "slow" and "stop", or abbreviations of words or characters in other languages, or specific values ​​of the speed, etc. It is understandable that the indicator screen can be a digital tube, a TN screen, a dot matrix screen, a broken code screen, a TFT screen, a STN screen, an LED screen or an OLED screen, etc.

[0131] In some examples, the indication unit includes an indicator light and / or an indicator light strip;

[0132] The above-mentioned method of controlling the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned rotation speed information to indicate the real-time rotation speed of the above-mentioned mixer includes:

[0133] Based on the speed information, the brightness of the indicator light and / or the indicator light strip is controlled to indicate the real-time speed of the mixer; and / or,

[0134] The flashing frequency of the indicator light and / or the indicator light strip is controlled based on the rotation speed information to display the real-time rotation speed of the hand blender.

[0135] Exemplarily, the indication unit may include an indicator light, an indicator light strip, or a combination of an indicator light and an indicator light strip. The indicator light or indicator light strip may display the rotation speed information of the stirring component through brightness and / or flashing frequency. The blender may display the rotation speed information of the stirring component through changes in the brightness of the indicator light and / or indicator light strip, for example: the greater the brightness, the greater the corresponding rotation speed. The blender may also display the rotation speed information according to the flashing frequency of the indicator light and / or indicator light strip, for example: the faster the flashing frequency, the faster the rotation speed. It is understandable that the indicator light may be an LED lamp, which has the advantages of low energy consumption, long service life, no harmful elements, no electromagnetic interference, narrow bandwidth, pure color, and no stray light. The indicator light strip may be in the form of a combination of multiple LED lights, which can provide uniform and soft light.

[0136] In some examples, the indicator unit includes an indicator light strip;

[0137] The above-mentioned method of controlling the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned rotation speed information to indicate the real-time rotation speed of the above-mentioned mixer includes:

[0138] Based on the rotation speed information, the lighting area of ​​the indicator light strip is controlled to display the real-time rotation speed of the mixer.

[0139] Exemplarily, the indicating unit may be an indicator light strip, which is a light emitting body having a certain width and length. The indicator light strip may display the rotation speed information through the area of ​​the lit region. For example, the larger the area of ​​the lit region, the greater the rotation speed of the stirring component. The indicator light strip may be in the form of a combination of multiple LED lights, which may provide uniform and soft light. LEDs have the advantages of low energy consumption, long service life, no harmful elements, no electromagnetic interference, narrow bandwidth, pure color, and no stray light. When the light strip is composed of multiple LED lights, the area of ​​the lit region may be controlled by controlling the number of lit LED lights.

[0140] In some examples, the indicator light strip is wound around the body of the blender, and the area of ​​the lighting region is determined based on the axial height range and / or circumferential length range of the body occupied by the lighting region.

[0141] Exemplarily, the indicator light strip can be wrapped around the fuselage. For example, if the fuselage is a cylinder, the indicator light strip can be a ring-shaped light strip wrapped around the fuselage. If the fuselage is a prism, the indicator light strip can be a light strip wrapped around the circumference that fits the outer surface of the prism. By wrapping the indicator light strip around the fuselage, the user can observe the display effect of the light strip at all angles when using the blender. The area of ​​the light strip's illuminated area can be changed according to changes in the axial height range of the fuselage. For example, the greater the height, the larger the illuminated area, indicating that the blender rotates faster. It can also be changed according to changes in the circumferential length range of the fuselage. For example, the greater the circumferential length, the larger the illuminated area, indicating that the blender rotates faster. By wrapping the light strip around the fuselage, the speed information of the blender can be obtained at all angles, thereby improving the user experience.

[0142] In some examples, the working status information includes rotation speed information;

[0143] The above-mentioned control of the display effect of the above-mentioned indication unit based on the above-mentioned working status information includes:

[0144] In the case where the mixer receives a stop-work instruction, determining a stop-rotation time of the mixing component of the mixer based on the time when the stop-work instruction is received and the rotation speed information;

[0145] Switching the display effect of the indication unit based on the rotation stop time;

[0146] and / or,

[0147] Determining a stop rotation time of the stirring component of the stirring machine based on a current cooking menu of the stirring machine;

[0148] Switching the display effect of the indication unit based on the rotation stop time;

[0149] and / or,

[0150] In the case where the mixer receives a stop working instruction, determining a stop rotation time of the mixing component of the mixer based on the time when the stop working instruction is received, the current viscosity of the food and the rotation speed information;

[0151] The display effect of the indication unit is switched based on the rotation stop time.

[0152] Exemplarily, the indication unit may be used to indicate whether the blending assembly is still rotating when the blender has stopped working, thereby prompting the user when to lift the blender without causing food to splash.

[0153] In some examples, the blender stops working when receiving a stop working instruction. The blender obtains the speed information when it stops working, and determines the speed decay time used when the speed is reduced to 0 according to the speed information, and determines the stop rotation time of the mixing component according to the time when the stop working instruction is received and the speed decay time. The display effect of the indication unit is switched according to the stop rotation time, that is, the indication effect of the indication unit is switched when the speed is 0. The switching indication effect can be a change in the color of the indication unit, or a change in the characters displayed on the indication unit. It can be understood that the size of the speed information is directly proportional to the speed decay time. A corresponding speed and speed decay time correspondence table can be set in the blender to determine the corresponding speed decay time under different speed information, thereby determining the stop rotation time.

[0154] In some examples, the blender can run specific cooking menus, such as children's complementary food, cake frothing, etc. Different cooking menus of different blenders directly correspond to different time and speed relationships. The relationship between application and speed can be determined during the product development stage, and the corresponding relationship between time and speed is stored in the storage medium corresponding to the blender. When the blender is running in a specific menu mode, the corresponding time and speed relationship stored in the storage medium can be directly queried through the current cooking menu to determine the stop time of the stirring component and switch the display effect of the indication unit according to the stop time.

[0155] In some examples, the blender can be applied to different ingredients, and different ingredients correspond to different viscosities. For example, the viscosity of flour mucus is greater than that of fruit juice. The viscosity of the same ingredient will also change with the change of mixing time. For example, the viscosity of the egg liquid will gradually increase as it is beaten. Different viscosities also have different resistance to the stirring component. The current viscosity of the ingredients can be obtained by setting a torque sensor in the blender. The greater the resistance torque collected by the torque sensor, the greater the viscosity of the ingredient. The blender determines the stop time of the stirring component of the blender based on the time when the stop working instruction is received, the current viscosity of the ingredients and the above-mentioned speed information. It can also take into account the hindering effect of the ingredients on the blender, and can more accurately determine the time when the stirring component stops rotating.

[0156] In some examples, a safety time threshold can be set to determine when to switch the display effect of the above-mentioned indicator unit. For example, according to test data statistics, no matter what kind of food or what speed, the stirring component stops rotating after 5 seconds. The safety time threshold can be set to 5 seconds, and the display effect of the indicator unit can be switched after 5 seconds.

[0157] In some examples, the indicator unit can also be used to show whether the stirring component is installed in place, and whether it is installed in place can be indicated by the color of the indicator unit, the text information of the indicator unit, etc. The indicator unit can also be used to display the type and function of the current stirring component, which can be reflected in the form of text, such as "knife", "egg beater", etc.
