[0019] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments should not be regarded as limiting the present application. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0021] In the following description, the expression "some embodiments" is involved, which describes a subset of all possible embodiments. It should be noted that "some embodiments" may be the same subset or different subsets of all possible embodiments, and may be combined with each other without conflict.

[0022] It should also be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may also be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are only for the purpose of explanation in conjunction with the embodiments of the accompanying drawings and do not represent the only implementation method.

[0023] A schematic diagram of the application environment of an aromatherapy device, such as Figure 1 As shown, the aromatherapy device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 are included. The aromatherapy device 10 and the mobile terminal 20 can communicate via wireless connection. The mobile terminal 20 can install an application of the aromatherapy device, and set the working mode, control mode and other parameters of the aromatherapy device through the interactive interface provided by the application.

[0024] Among them, mobile devices are electronic devices that are convenient for users to carry and operate. Mobile devices include but are not limited to smartphones, tablets and wearable devices. Wearable devices can include smart watches, smart bracelets and smart glasses, etc.

[0025] The aromatherapy device 10 can be used to spray liquid aromatherapy so that the aroma is evenly distributed into the air.

[0026] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 As shown, the aromatherapy device 10 includes a controller 101, a wireless module 102, an atomizing assembly 103 and a liquid storage chamber 104. The controller 101 is electrically connected to the wireless module 102 and the atomizing assembly 103.

[0027] The wireless module 102 establishes a wireless connection with the mobile terminal. In one embodiment, the wireless module may be a Bluetooth module, which establishes a Bluetooth connection with the mobile terminal.

[0028] The liquid storage chamber 104 is used to store aromatherapy liquid.

[0029] The atomizing assembly 103 is used to spray the aromatherapy liquid in the liquid storage chamber.

[0030] In some embodiments, the atomization assembly 103 may include a fan and an atomizer, etc. The atomizer is arranged in the mist channel and / or the liquid storage chamber, and is used to generate mist. The fan is arranged in the fan accommodating chamber, and the fan accommodating chamber is connected to the air duct. The controller 101 is electrically connected to the atomizer and the fan, and is used to control the atomizer and the fan. In the atomization device, the atomizer may be arranged, for example, in the liquid storage chamber, or in the mist channel. The liquid storage chamber stores an aromatherapy liquid that can be converted into mist by the atomizer, and such liquid can be transferred to the location of the atomizer, for example, through materials such as cotton strips. After the atomizer converts the above liquid into mist, the mist will diffuse into the mist channel. The fan will generate airflow, and the airflow will flow to the mist channel through the air duct and blow the mist out of the atomization assembly.

[0031] In some embodiments, the aromatherapy device 10 also includes a light source. The light source is electrically connected to the controller, and the light source is disposed in the housing of the aromatherapy device. The housing is provided with a mist outlet, the mist outlet is connected to the mist channel, the light source is disposed in the mist channel, and the light source is directly opposite the mist outlet, and the light emitted by the light source passes through the mist outlet, so that after the light passes through the mist outlet, a light column consistent with the shape of the mist outlet is formed, thereby improving the visual effect. In one embodiment, the light source is an RGB lamp. The RGB lamp uses a mixture of red (Red), green (Green), and blue (Blue) LED lamp beads to emit light. By adjusting the brightness ratio of these three colors, rich color changes can be achieved.

[0032] A control method for an aromatherapy device, applied to Figure 1 The controller 101 shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0033] Step 202: monitor the wireless connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal.

[0034] The mobile terminal is a terminal device trusted by the aromatherapy device and can establish a wireless connection with the aromatherapy device. Both the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device have wireless modules. After successful pairing, a wireless connection can be established between the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device.

[0035] The controller monitors the wireless connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, and can determine the wireless connection status between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal through the wireless connection parameters, wherein the wireless connection parameters are at least used to indicate whether the aromatherapy device is wirelessly connected to the mobile terminal.

[0036] In one embodiment, the wireless connection parameters may include a wireless connection status, which is used to indicate whether the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal are successfully connected. In one embodiment, the wireless connection parameters may include a wireless connection status and a wireless signal strength. The wireless signal strength is a measurement value indicating the signal strength when a wireless device receives a signal, and the value is related to factors such as distance and obstacles. Taking the wireless connection as a Bluetooth connection as an example, the wireless signal strength can be represented by a received signal strength indication (RSSI).

[0037] Step 204: When the wireless connection parameters meet the start-up conditions, the aromatherapy device is controlled to start up.

[0038] Specifically, a startup condition corresponding to the wireless connection parameter is pre-set, and the startup condition at least includes that the aromatherapy device and the mobile device are online connected. When the wireless parameter meets the startup condition, the aromatherapy device is controlled to start. In this scenario, when the mobile terminal is carried to the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located, when it is detected that the wireless connection parameters between the two meet the startup condition of the aromatherapy device, the controller controls the aromatherapy device to start.

[0039] In this embodiment, the wireless connection parameters are used as the start-up conditions of the aromatherapy device, and the controller monitors whether the wireless connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal meet the start-up conditions, and controls the aromatherapy device to start after the start-up conditions are met. In this way, the aromatherapy device can be started without manual operation, which greatly improves the convenience of operation.

[0040] Among them, the wireless connection has a distance limit, so the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device can only be successfully connected when they are within the effective distance range. Therefore, the wireless connection parameters are used as the start-up conditions, so that the start-up conditions can be met when the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device are within the effective distance range, and the aromatherapy device is triggered to start. For the user, there is no need to perform any operation, just carry a mobile terminal with the wireless function turned on and capable of establishing a wireless connection with the aromatherapy device into the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located, and the wireless connection parameters of the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device meet the start-up conditions.

[0041] Taking the aromatherapy device as a vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device as an example, the space environment in which it is located is usually in a vehicle. When the wireless connection parameters between the mobile terminal carried by the user and the aromatherapy device meet the startup conditions, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device can be automatically started without manual operation, thereby improving the convenience of operating the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device.

[0042] In the above-mentioned control method of the aromatherapy device, the wireless connection parameters are at least used to indicate whether the aromatherapy device is connected to the mobile terminal, and the start-up condition at least includes that the wireless connection state is connected. By monitoring the wireless connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, when the wireless connection parameters meet the start-up condition, the aromatherapy device is controlled to start. This method uses the wireless connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal as the start-up condition of the aromatherapy device, and the user does not need to manually start the operation. It only needs to carry a mobile terminal that can establish a wireless connection with the aromatherapy device into the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located, and the wireless connection parameters between the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device meet the start-up condition, and the aromatherapy device can be automatically started. This method improves the convenience of the aromatherapy device start-up operation.

[0043] In one embodiment, the wireless connection method between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal includes any one of a Bluetooth connection, a WIFI connection, and an NFC connection.

[0044] In one embodiment, the wireless connection parameters include a wireless connection state and a wireless signal strength; and the start condition includes: the wireless connection state is connected, and the wireless signal strength is greater than a first threshold.

[0045] In one embodiment, when it is detected that the aromatherapy device and the mobile device are disconnected from the wireless connection, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0046] In one embodiment, when it is detected that the wireless signal strength is less than a second threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0047] The control method of the aromatherapy device of the present application can be based on the establishment of Bluetooth connection, WIFI connection and NFC connection between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal. When the corresponding wireless connection parameters meet the startup conditions, the aromatherapy device is controlled to start, and when the corresponding wireless connection is disconnected or the wireless signal strength is less than the second threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down. In this way, the aromatherapy device can be intelligently started when the user enters the relevant environment, and the aromatherapy device can be intelligently shut down or sleep when the user leaves the relevant environment. Thereby, the convenience of starting and stopping the aromatherapy device is improved.

[0048] It should be understood that the wireless connection method between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal is any one of Bluetooth connection, WIFI connection and NFC connection, which can realize the start and stop operation of the intelligent control aromatherapy device of the present application, and the only difference is the difference in the implementation form of the wireless connection method. When it comes to product implementation, it is only necessary to make adaptive modifications to the implementation method and interface presentation according to the different wireless connection methods selected. For example, when the connection method is Bluetooth connection, monitor the Bluetooth connection parameters, when the connection method is WIFI connection, monitor the WIFI connection parameters, and when the connection method is NFC connection, monitor the NFC connection parameters.

[0049] In one embodiment, taking the wireless connection between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal as a Bluetooth connection as an example, the wireless connection parameters are Bluetooth connection parameters. In actual applications, when the aromatherapy device is in a relatively small enclosed space, such as when the aromatherapy device is in a car, the effective distance range of the Bluetooth connection can reach 10 meters or even farther. In this case, if only the connection between the aromatherapy device and the mobile device is used as a start condition, it may cause the aromatherapy device to be triggered by mistake. For example, if a user passes by a car without needing to use the car, and only the connection between the aromatherapy device and the mobile device is used as a start condition, the aromatherapy device in the car may be triggered by mistake, resulting in a waste of aromatherapy liquid.

[0050] To reduce false triggering, in one embodiment, the Bluetooth connection parameters include the Bluetooth connection status and the Bluetooth signal strength. The Bluetooth connection status includes connected and disconnected. Connected means that the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal have established a Bluetooth connection. Disconnected means that the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal have disconnected the Bluetooth connection.

[0051] Bluetooth signal strength can be represented by the received signal strength indication (RSSI), which is a measurement of the signal strength when the Bluetooth device receives the signal. This value is related to factors such as distance and obstacles. Therefore, the Bluetooth signal strength can reflect the distance between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, as well as the obstacle situation. Generally speaking, the greater the Bluetooth signal strength, the smaller the distance between the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device, or there is no obstacle interference, and the smaller the Bluetooth signal strength, the greater the distance between the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device, or there is obstacle interference between the two.

[0052] Correspondingly, the start condition includes: the Bluetooth connection state is connected, and the Bluetooth signal strength is greater than the first threshold. Thus, when it is detected that the Bluetooth connection state is connected, and the Bluetooth signal strength is greater than the first threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to start. By using the Bluetooth signal strength as a condition for starting the aromatherapy device, the aromatherapy device can be started according to the Bluetooth connection parameters only when the distance between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal is small, or when there is no obstacle interference so that the Bluetooth signal strength is large enough.

[0053] The first threshold value can be flexibly set according to the application environment. For example, when the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located is large, the first threshold value can be set relatively small. When the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located is small, the first threshold value can be set relatively large, so as to avoid false triggering.

[0054] In this scenario, when the mobile terminal is carried to the space where the aromatherapy device is located, the controller controls the aromatherapy device to start when it detects that the Bluetooth connection status between the two is connected and the Bluetooth signal strength is greater than the first threshold. By adding the Bluetooth signal strength as a start-up condition for the aromatherapy device, the situation of false triggering of the aromatherapy device can be reduced, thereby improving the customer experience.

[0055] Taking a car as an example, the obstruction of the car body will attenuate the Bluetooth signal between the mobile device and the aromatherapy device, thereby reducing the connection distance between the two. Through reasonable experiments, the received signal strength indication when the mobile device is in the car can be detected and used as the first threshold. Therefore, when the user carries the mobile device in the car environment, when the Bluetooth signal strength monitored by the controller is greater than the first threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to start. When the user carries the mobile device in the outside environment of the car, the Bluetooth signal strength between the mobile device and the aromatherapy device is less than the first threshold due to the obstruction of the car body, and the aromatherapy device will not start, thereby reducing the situation where the aromatherapy device in the car is mistakenly started due to the user passing by the car.

[0056] It should be understood that before the mobile device is connected to the aromatherapy device, the user should pair the mobile device and the aromatherapy device to establish a Bluetooth connection between the two. A method for implementing pairing and connection may include the following steps:

[0057] 1. Turn on Bluetooth: The user turns on the Bluetooth function on the mobile terminal to ensure that the mobile terminal is discoverable.

[0058] 2. Search for devices: In the control interface or APP of the aromatherapy device, select the Bluetooth connection mode and search for nearby Bluetooth devices.

[0059] 3. Pairing connection: In the searched device list, select the mobile terminal for pairing. After successful pairing, a stable Bluetooth connection will be established between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal.

[0060] In the above embodiment, the aromatherapy device is automatically started through the Bluetooth connection parameters, so that the user can bring the mobile device into the space where the aromatherapy device is located, and the aromatherapy device can be automatically started without the user's operation, thereby improving the convenience of the startup operation and user experience. Correspondingly, the aromatherapy device can also be automatically stopped through the Bluetooth connection parameters to improve the convenience of the start and stop operation of the aromatherapy device.

[0061] There are two ways to realize the automatic stop of the aromatherapy device according to the Bluetooth connection parameters:

[0062] In a first implementation, when it is detected that the aromatherapy device and the mobile device are disconnected from the Bluetooth connection, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0063] In a second implementation, when it is detected that the Bluetooth signal strength is less than a second threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0064] In the above two implementations, when the mobile terminal is carried far away from the aromatherapy device, or there are obstacles between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, the Bluetooth connection between the aromatherapy device and the mobile device is disconnected, or the Bluetooth signal strength is reduced, the aromatherapy device can be automatically hibernated or turned off. In this scenario, the user can feel that the aromatherapy device will stop automatically as long as the mobile device is carried far away from the aromatherapy device, or leaves the space where the aromatherapy device is located, without manual operation, which is very convenient.

[0065] Generally speaking, the Bluetooth connection status and Bluetooth signal strength between the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device can reflect the space environment where the user carries the mobile terminal into or out of the aromatherapy device. The space environment where the user carries the mobile terminal into or out of the aromatherapy device can usually reflect the user's real usage needs. For example, when the user carries the mobile terminal out of the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located, there is usually no need to use it. When the user carries the mobile terminal into the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located, there is usually a need to use it.

[0066] The control method of the aromatherapy device of the present application can reflect the actual use needs of the user through the Bluetooth connection parameters. When the user enters the relevant environment and has the use needs, the aromatherapy device is intelligently automatically started, and when the user leaves the relevant environment and has no use needs, the aromatherapy device is intelligently shut down or hibernated.

[0067] Among them, sleep is an energy-saving mechanism. In sleep mode, the aromatherapy device enters a low-power state and shuts down most hardware components to save energy. In sleep mode, the controller of the aromatherapy device is still turned on to monitor the Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, so as to facilitate self-starting according to the Bluetooth connection parameters.

[0068] Among them, shutting down means shutting down all hardware components of the aromatherapy device. In the shutting down state, the aromatherapy device cannot be automatically started by monitoring the Bluetooth connection parameters, and can only be started manually or by other starting methods.

[0069] The above two methods of realizing the self-stop of the aromatherapy device based on the Bluetooth connection parameters require that the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal disconnect the Bluetooth connection, or the Bluetooth signal strength of the two is less than the threshold. The corresponding usage scenarios include: the user carries the mobile device far away from the aromatherapy device, or leaves the spatial environment where the aromatherapy device is located. The above usage scenarios do not require the user to actively perform any operations on the mobile terminal or the aromatherapy device, which is very convenient. In the above scenarios, the user needs to actively leave the spatial environment where the aromatherapy device is located. However, in actual applications, there are application scenarios where the user wants to stay in the spatial environment where the aromatherapy device is located, but does not want to continue using the aromatherapy device.

[0070] In view of the above application scenarios, the present application also provides a method in which the user can actively control the stopping of the aromatherapy device through a mobile terminal.

[0071] Specifically, when the controller receives a stop control signal sent by the mobile terminal, it controls the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down; the mobile terminal responds to the exit operation of the application of the aromatherapy device, or responds to the operation of closing the control to send a stop control signal to the aromatherapy device.

[0072] In the above method, the user actively operates the mobile terminal to send a stop control signal to the aromatherapy device, and the aromatherapy device responds to the stop control signal to control the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down. Specifically, the user can actively control the aromatherapy device to stop in the following three ways.

[0073] The first method: the user operates on the mobile terminal to exit the application running the aromatherapy device. The user operates on the mobile terminal to exit the application running the aromatherapy device, that is, to close the application. When the user chooses to close the application of the aromatherapy device on the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal sends a stop control signal to the aromatherapy device, and the controller responds to the stop control signal to control the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down.

[0074] The second method: the user operates the shutdown control on the mobile terminal. In order to facilitate the user's operation, a quick shutdown control can be provided in the application interface of the aromatherapy device. When the user chooses to operate the shutdown control, the mobile terminal sends a stop control signal to the aromatherapy device, and the controller responds to the stop control signal to control the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down.

[0075] The third method: in response to a shutdown operation triggered by a physical button of the aromatherapy device, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down. In this method, the aromatherapy device may also be provided with a physical button to turn on or off the aromatherapy device.

[0076] In the above three methods, the user does not need to leave the environment where the aromatherapy device is located. The user actively operates the mobile terminal or the aromatherapy device to control the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down. For application scenarios where the user wants to shut down the aromatherapy device when the aromatherapy device is in the environment where the aromatherapy device is located, the operation of the aromatherapy device can be quickly stopped by closing the running application, clicking the close control, or turning off the aromatherapy device with a physical button.

[0077] Among them, controlling the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down includes: controlling the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down after completing the current working cycle.

[0078] The current working cycle refers to the working cycle of the aromatherapy device when it detects that the shutdown condition is met or receives a stop control signal. Each working cycle of the aromatherapy device can last for a set time, such as 20 seconds. During this working cycle, multiple hardware of the aromatherapy device cooperate to complete the aromatherapy release, diffusion and circulation. In one embodiment, the working cycle of the aromatherapy device is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, its working cycle is 20 seconds, among which the mist fan works from 0 to 16 seconds, the heating wire works from 2 to 3.5 seconds, the RGB indicator light works from 2 to 20 seconds, and the mist fan works from 7 to 20 seconds. In a working cycle of the aromatherapy device, the mist fan, heating wire, RGB indicator light and mist fan work according to the set working time to cooperate in completing the aromatherapy release, diffusion and circulation.

[0079] When the controller of the aromatherapy device detects that the shutdown conditions are met or receives a stop control signal, it will first determine whether the current working cycle has been completed. If not, it will control the aromatherapy device to sleep or shut down after the current working cycle is completed. In this way, on the one hand, the waste of aromatherapy can be avoided, and on the other hand, the risk of the sprayed aromatherapy vaporizing into liquid droplets, accumulating in the aromatherapy device and penetrating to damage the electronic components can be reduced, thereby improving the safety and service life of the aromatherapy device.

[0080] In one embodiment, the control method of the aromatherapy device further includes: acquiring a control mode; and when the control mode is a Bluetooth connection control mode, executing the step of monitoring Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal.

[0081] Specifically, the aromatherapy device can be set to different control modes according to its use environment. Taking the car aromatherapy device as an example, it can provide a car start-stop control mode, a Bluetooth connection control mode, and a timer power on / off control mode.

[0082] Among them, when the control mode is the Bluetooth connection control mode, the controller monitors the Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, and controls the aromatherapy device to start when the Bluetooth connection parameters meet the start-up conditions. When it is detected that the aromatherapy device and the mobile device are disconnected from the Bluetooth connection, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down. Or when it is detected that the Bluetooth signal strength is less than the second threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0083] This embodiment sets the control mode to the Bluetooth connection control mode, triggers the controller to monitor the Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, and triggers the automatic start and stop of the aromatherapy device, thereby improving the convenience of the start and stop operation.

[0084] In some embodiments, obtaining the control mode includes any one of the following methods:

[0085] The first method is to obtain the Bluetooth connection control mode setting instruction sent by the mobile terminal, and obtain the Bluetooth connection control mode; the mobile terminal responds to the Bluetooth connection control mode opening operation, and sends the setting instruction to the aromatherapy device. Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, a switch for the Bluetooth connection control mode is provided in the application interface of the aromatherapy device for the user to choose to turn on or off the mode. When the user chooses to turn on the Bluetooth connection control mode, the mobile terminal sends a Bluetooth connection control mode turn-on instruction to the aromatherapy device, and the aromatherapy device obtains the control mode as the Bluetooth connection control mode based on the Bluetooth connection control mode turn-on instruction. After the aromatherapy device identifies that the control mode is the Bluetooth connection control mode, it monitors the Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, and controls the aromatherapy device to start when the Bluetooth connection parameters meet the start-up conditions. When it is detected that the aromatherapy device and the mobile device are disconnected from the Bluetooth connection, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down. Or when it is detected that the Bluetooth signal strength is less than the second threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0086] The second method: in response to the Bluetooth connection control mode activation operation triggered by the screen of the aromatherapy device, the Bluetooth connection control mode is acquired. In this method, the screen of the aromatherapy device sets a switch control of the Bluetooth connection control mode, and when the user clicks the Bluetooth connection control mode switch triggered by the screen of the aromatherapy device, the controller acquires the Bluetooth connection control mode.

[0087] The third method: in response to the Bluetooth connection control mode activation operation triggered by the physical button of the aromatherapy device, the Bluetooth connection control mode is acquired. In this method, the aromatherapy device may also be provided with a physical button to activate or deactivate the Bluetooth connection control mode.

[0088] In some embodiments, for other control modes supported by the aromatherapy device, a setting switch may also be provided through the mobile terminal to facilitate the user to set the control mode.

[0089] In some embodiments, for other control modes supported by the aromatherapy device, a setting switch may also be provided through the screen of the aromatherapy device so that the user can set the control mode.

[0090] In some embodiments, for other control modes supported by the aromatherapy device, the user can also set the control mode through the physical buttons of the aromatherapy device.

[0091] In the embodiments of the present application, multiple control modes and control mode setting methods are provided, so that users can flexibly set them according to actual needs. For example, the control mode set by the user is the Bluetooth connection control mode, and when the user forgets to bring the mobile terminal or the mobile terminal is turned off, the user can set other control modes through the screen or physical buttons of the aromatherapy device to intelligently start or shut down the aromatherapy device.

[0092] The control method of the aromatherapy device of the present application provides a plurality of setting methods of Bluetooth connection modes, so that the user can set the Bluetooth connection control mode of the aromatherapy device.

[0093] When the control mode is the Bluetooth connection control mode, the controller monitors the Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, and controls the aromatherapy device to start when the Bluetooth connection parameters meet the start-up conditions. When it is detected that the aromatherapy device and the mobile device are disconnected from the Bluetooth connection, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down. Or when it is detected that the Bluetooth signal strength is less than the second threshold, the aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0094] The corresponding usage scenarios include: when a user carries a mobile device into the space where the aromatherapy device is located, the mobile terminal establishes a Bluetooth connection with the aromatherapy device, and the Bluetooth signal strength is greater than a first threshold, the controller can monitor that the Bluetooth connection parameters meet the startup conditions and control the aromatherapy device to start automatically. When the user carries the mobile terminal far away from the aromatherapy device, or leaves the space where the aromatherapy device is located, the controller monitors that the mobile terminal is disconnected from the aromatherapy device or the Bluetooth signal strength is less than a second threshold, and controls the aromatherapy device to stop automatically. The above usage scenarios do not require the user to actively start or stop the mobile terminal or aromatherapy device, which is extremely convenient and intelligent, and greatly improves the user experience.

[0095] Generally speaking, the Bluetooth connection status and Bluetooth signal strength between a mobile terminal and an aromatherapy device can reflect the spatial environment where a user carries a mobile terminal to enter or leave the aromatherapy device. And the spatial environment where a user carries a mobile terminal to enter or leave the aromatherapy device can usually reflect the user's actual usage needs. The control method of the aromatherapy device of the present application can reflect the user's actual usage needs through Bluetooth connection parameters. When the user enters the relevant environment and has usage needs, the aromatherapy device is intelligently started automatically; when the user leaves the relevant environment and has no usage needs, the aromatherapy device is intelligently shut down or hibernated. In this way, the convenience and intelligence of the start and stop operations of the aromatherapy device can be improved, as well as the user experience can be enhanced.

[0096] Different aromatherapy devices have different application environments and different control modes. Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment takes the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy as an example, and its control mode may also include a vehicle start-stop mode and a timed on / off control mode.

[0097] Among them, the timed power on and off control mode can set the timed power on time and the timed power off time. When the set timed power on time is reached, the aromatherapy device turns on and enters the working state to release the fragrance. When the set timed power off time is reached, the aromatherapy device stops working.

[0098] Among them, the car aromatherapy start-stop control mode is usually based on the vibration sensing principle of the vehicle. When the vehicle starts, the aromatherapy device will sense the vibration and automatically enter the working state to release the fragrance. When the vehicle is turned off, the aromatherapy device will sense the stillness and automatically enter the standby mode to stop releasing the fragrance. The car aromatherapy start-stop control mode is convenient and intelligent. Users can realize the start-stop control of the aromatherapy device without manually turning it on and off.

[0099] However, in actual applications, the control method of the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device that starts and stops with the vehicle has problems with false triggering and usage scenario limitations. For example, when a vehicle is parked on the side of the road, the vibration generated by passing vehicles may be detected by the vibration sensor of the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device, resulting in the false triggering of the vehicle's on-board aromatherapy device. For another example, when a user enters a vehicle but has no need to start the vehicle (such as entering the vehicle for a lunch break or waiting for someone), the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device will not turn on because it cannot detect vibration. At this time, if the user wants to turn on the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device, it needs to be started manually. Therefore, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device's start-stop control mode cannot cover the user's usage needs in a variety of scenarios.

[0100] To address this issue, the in-vehicle aromatherapy device can be set to the vehicle start-stop control mode by default, and a Bluetooth connection control mode is also provided. Users can turn on the Bluetooth connection control mode through the application settings, or through the screen settings of the aromatherapy device, or through the physical button settings of the aromatherapy device.

[0101] When the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device is set to the Bluetooth connection control mode, the controller of the aromatherapy device monitors the Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, and controls the aromatherapy device to start when the Bluetooth connection parameters meet the start-up conditions. That is, in the Bluetooth connection control mode, the automatic start-stop control of the aromatherapy device is controlled according to the Bluetooth connection parameters between the mobile terminal and the aromatherapy device. The corresponding application scenario can be: when the mobile terminal is carried to the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located, the mobile terminal establishes a Bluetooth connection with the aromatherapy device and the Bluetooth signal strength is greater than the first threshold, thereby triggering the self-start of the aromatherapy device. When the mobile terminal is carried to the environment space where the aromatherapy device is located, the mobile terminal disconnects the Bluetooth connection with the aromatherapy device or the Bluetooth signal strength is less than the second threshold, thereby triggering the self-stop of the aromatherapy device. In the above application scenarios, there is no need for the user to operate the mobile device or the aromatherapy device, and the user only needs to carry the mobile terminal to leave or enter the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located. From the perspective of user perception, the aromatherapy device is turned on when the user enters the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located, and the aromatherapy device is stopped when the user leaves the space environment where the aromatherapy device is located.

[0102] In this way, when the user enters the vehicle but does not need to drive the vehicle for the time being (for example, entering the vehicle for a lunch break or waiting for someone), the user only needs to set the control mode of the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device to the Bluetooth connection control mode and bring the mobile terminal into the vehicle. After the user brings the mobile terminal into the vehicle, the controller of the aromatherapy device monitors the Bluetooth connection parameters between the aromatherapy device and the mobile terminal, and controls the aromatherapy device to start if the start conditions of the aromatherapy device are met.

[0103] In addition, the aromatherapy device control method of the present application also provides a flexible way to switch between different control modes to meet the needs of different user scenarios. In one embodiment, when a shutdown command of the Bluetooth connection control mode is received, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device is set to the vehicle start-stop control mode. In this way, when the user turns off the Bluetooth connection control mode, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device returns to the default vehicle start-stop control mode.

[0104] There may be a variety of ways to close the Bluetooth connection control mode. For example, in response to the Bluetooth connection control mode closing operation, the mobile terminal sends a Bluetooth connection control mode closing instruction to the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device controller. Upon receiving the Bluetooth connection control mode closing instruction sent by the mobile terminal, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device is set to the vehicle start-stop control mode. For another example, in response to the Bluetooth connection control mode closing operation triggered by the screen of the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device, or in response to the Bluetooth connection control mode closing operation triggered by the physical button of the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device is set to the vehicle start-stop control mode.

[0105] The control method of the aromatherapy device of this embodiment, when applied to the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device, can set the Bluetooth connection control mode for the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device. In the Bluetooth connection control mode, by monitoring the Bluetooth connection parameters between the mobile terminal and the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device, when the user carries the mobile terminal into the vehicle and the Bluetooth connection parameters of the vehicle meet the start-up conditions of the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device is controlled to start. When the user carries the mobile terminal out of the vehicle and the Bluetooth connection between the two is disconnected or the Bluetooth signal strength is detected to be less than the second threshold, the vehicle-mounted aromatherapy device is controlled to sleep or shut down.

[0106] When the Bluetooth connection control mode of the car aromatherapy is turned off, the car aromatherapy device switches to the start-stop control mode. In the start-stop control mode, when the vehicle starts, the aromatherapy device will sense the vibration and automatically enter the working state to release the fragrance. When the vehicle is turned off, the aromatherapy device will sense the stillness and automatically enter the standby mode and stop releasing the fragrance.

[0107] In this way, the user can flexibly select the control mode of the aromatherapy device according to actual needs, and switch the control mode.

[0108] The above are only specific implementations of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by a person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application shall be based on the protection scope of the claims.
