[0048] The present application is further described in detail below by specific embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Wherein similar elements in different embodiments use associated similar element numbers. In the following embodiments, many detailed descriptions are intended to enable the present application to be better understood. However, those skilled in the art can easily recognize that some of the features can be omitted in different situations, or can be replaced by other elements, materials, and methods. In some cases, some operations related to the present application are not shown or described in the specification, in order to avoid the core part of the present application being overwhelmed by too much description, and for those skilled in the art, it is not necessary to describe these related operations in detail, and the related operations can be fully understood according to the description in the specification and the general technical knowledge in the art.
[0049] In addition, the features, operations or characteristics described in the specification can be combined in any appropriate manner to form various implementations. At the same time, the steps or actions in the method description can also be interchanged or adjusted in a manner that is obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, the various sequences in the specification and the drawings are only for the purpose of clearly describing a certain embodiment and are not meant to be a required sequence, unless otherwise specified that a certain sequence must be followed.
[0050] The serial numbers of the components in this document, such as "first", "second", etc., are only used to distinguish the objects described and do not have any order or technical meaning. The "connection" and "coupling" mentioned in this application, unless otherwise specified, include direct and indirect connections (couplings).
[0051] In the current technical solution, when the cooking device is equipped with multiple heating units, for example, when there are two heating units, in order not to exceed the power limit of the device, one of the heating units has a higher heating power and the other has a lower heating power, and then the two heating units are heated at the same time. However, this will result in the heating temperature of the heating unit with a higher heating power being not high enough, and the heating temperature of the heating unit with a lower heating power being too low, which still cannot meet the user's needs for precise cooking of food.
[0052] In some embodiments of the present application, the cooking device is configured with two heating units, the two heating units have different priorities, and the two heating units have respective preset conditions for opening and closing, so as to independently control the opening and closing of the two heating units. Among them, at any time, as long as the opening condition of the heating unit with a high priority is met, only the heating unit with a high priority can be turned on, and when the closing condition of the heating unit with a high priority is met, the heating unit with a high priority is turned off. If the opening condition of the heating unit with a low priority is also met during the closing of the heating unit with a high priority, the heating unit with a low priority is turned on. Since only one heating unit can be turned on at a time, the power limit of the device will not be exceeded, and the two heating units are independently controlled, and the heating unit with a high priority is turned on first, so that the heating of the food by the heating unit with a high priority is first satisfied, and then the heating of the food by the heating unit with a low priority is satisfied, so that the user's cooking needs for food are accurately met based on the two heating units.
[0053] Some embodiments provide a cooking device that can control two heating units to heat and cook food independently, and give priority to one of the heating units to heat and cook food to meet the user's demand for food cooking. Figure 1 The cooking device includes a cooking body 10, a first heating unit 20, a second heating unit 30 and a control unit 40, which are described in detail below.
[0054] The cooking body 10 is used to contain food to provide a space for cooking the food.
[0055] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the cooking body 10 has a first cooking area 11 and a second cooking area 12, and the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12 are different. In some embodiments, the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12 can be used to place the food to be cooked, so as to cook different foods respectively. For example, the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12 can be two independent areas, and the two independent areas can be two independent heating cavities, or one of them can be a heating cavity and the other can be a heating pot or a heating plate. In some embodiments, the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12 can also be used to cook the same food to be cooked, for example, the same area is divided, for example, a heating cavity is divided into a first cooking area 11 in the upper part and a second cooking area 12 in the lower part, wherein the first cooking area 11 is used to cook the upper part of the food, and the second cooking area 12 is used to cook the lower part of the food. Alternatively, a heating cavity can also be divided into a left part or a right part, and the specific division method is not limited.
[0056] Please refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments, the cooking body 10 includes a shell 13 and a cooking pot body 14. The shell 13 is used to enclose a cooking cavity. The cooking pot body 14 is disposed in the cooking cavity, and the cooking cavity is divided into a first cooking area 11 located on one side of the cooking pot body 14, and a second cooking area 12 located on the other side of the cooking pot body 14. For example, the first cooking area 11 is located above the cooking pot body 14, and the second cooking area 12 is located below the cooking pot body 14. Food can be placed on the upper surface of the cooking pot body 14. In some embodiments, the cooking pot body 14 has a handle (not shown) for the cooking pot body 14 to be pulled out and arranged in the cooking cavity, for example, the cooking pot body 14 is pulled out from the cooking cavity, food is placed in the cooking pot body 14, and then the cooking pot body 14 is pushed into the cooking cavity.
[0057] Please refer to Figure 1 and 2 The first heating unit 20 is disposed in the first cooking area 11 to heat the first cooking area 11, and the second heating unit 30 is disposed in the second cooking area 12 to heat the second cooking area 12. The first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 may adopt the same heating method or different heating methods, or may select one or more suitable heating methods according to different cooking areas.
[0058] In some embodiments, the heating method can use electric energy provided by an external power source or an internal power source to generate heat to heat the cooking area. For example, electric energy can be used to heat a heating element made of nickel-chromium-iron alloy wire, so that the cooking area can be directly heated by the far infrared rays generated by the heated heating element. For example, electric energy can be used to form a magnetic field in a coil, so that the cooking area magnetized by the formed magnetic field can be heated. For example, electric energy can be used to heat a heating wire, so that the heated heating wire directly heats the cooking pot body 14 formed of a heat conductive material through heat conduction or indirectly heats the cooking pot body 14, thereby heating the food on the cooking pot body 14. For example, electric energy can be used to heat a heating wire, so that the heated heating wire heats the air, and the heated air heats the cooking area through convection.
[0059] In some embodiments, the first heating unit 20 includes a fan and a first heating element, the first heating element is used to generate heat, and the fan is used to drive airflow to form hot air to heat the first cooking area 11. In some embodiments, the second heating unit 30 includes a second heating element, the second heating element is used to generate heat to heat the second cooking area 12.
[0060] The control unit 40 is used to control the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 to perform heating. In some embodiments, the control unit 40 can be implemented based on a device with a control function such as a CPU, an FPGA, or a single chip microcomputer.
[0061] In some embodiments, the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 have respective preset conditions for turning on and off, and the control unit 40 obtains the respective preset conditions for turning on and off of the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30, respectively, so as to independently control the turning on and off of the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30, respectively.
[0062] In some embodiments, the first heating unit 20 has a first preset condition for opening and a second preset condition for closing, and the second heating unit 30 has a third preset condition for opening and a fourth preset condition for closing. In some embodiments, the first preset condition is different from the fourth preset condition. In some embodiments, the second preset condition is different from the third preset condition. In this embodiment, the opening and closing of the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 are independent. For example, when the second preset condition is met, the processing unit controls the first heating unit 20 to close. If the third preset condition is not met at this time, the processing unit will not control the second heating unit 30 to open, so that the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 are both closed.
[0063] In some embodiments, the preset conditions are time-related parameters of the respective corresponding heating units and / or temperature-related parameters of the respective corresponding cooking zones. For example, the first preset condition, the second preset condition, the third preset condition, and the fourth preset condition respectively include time-related parameters of the respective corresponding heating units and / or temperature-related parameters of the respective corresponding cooking zones.
[0064] The time-related parameters include at least one of the heating time of the corresponding heating unit and the opening time difference between the corresponding heating unit and another heating unit. The temperature-related parameters include at least one of the target temperature of the corresponding cooking area, the heating or cooling rate of the corresponding cooking area, the temperature difference between the real-time temperature of the corresponding cooking area and the initial temperature or the target temperature, and the temperature difference between the corresponding cooking area and another cooking area. For example, the first preset condition may be the heating time of the first heating unit 20 or the opening time difference between the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30. For example, the first preset condition may be one or more of the target temperature of the first cooking area 11, the heating or cooling rate of the first cooking area 11, the temperature difference between the real-time temperature of the first cooking area 11 and the initial temperature, the temperature difference between the real-time temperature of the first cooking area 11 and the target temperature, and the temperature difference between the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12.
[0065] For example, the first preset condition is that the temperature of the first cooking area 11 is less than the first threshold temperature, the second preset condition is that the temperature of the first cooking area 11 is greater than the second threshold temperature, the third preset condition is that the temperature of the second cooking area 12 is less than the third threshold temperature, and the fourth preset condition is that the temperature of the second cooking area 12 is greater than the fourth threshold temperature. The first threshold temperature and the second threshold temperature may be the same, or the second threshold temperature may be greater than the first threshold temperature or different. The third threshold temperature and the fourth threshold temperature may be the same, or the fourth threshold temperature may be greater than the second threshold temperature or different. For example, the first preset condition, the second preset condition, the third preset condition, and the fourth preset condition may also include time-related parameters. It can be understood that multiple time-related parameters may be combined to obtain preset conditions, multiple temperature-related parameters may be combined to obtain preset conditions, and one or more time-related parameters and one or more temperature-related parameters may also be combined to obtain preset conditions, which will not be repeated here.
[0066] In the above embodiment, the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 have independent start and stop conditions and do not affect each other, so as to ensure that when the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 heat the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12 respectively, the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12 can be accurately placed in the expected cooking conditions.
[0067] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the cooking device further includes a temperature detection unit 50. The temperature detection unit 50 is used to obtain one or both of the temperature of the first cooking area 11 and the temperature of the second cooking area 12, and output a corresponding temperature signal to the control unit 40.
[0068] In some embodiments, the temperature detection unit 50 includes one or more temperature sensing modules. For example, when the temperature detection unit 50 includes a temperature sensing module, it can be configured in the first cooking area 11 or in the second cooking area 12. For example, when the temperature sensing module is configured in the first cooking area 11, it can directly obtain the temperature of the first cooking area 11 and output the corresponding first temperature signal to the control unit 40. Then the control unit 40 estimates the temperature of the second cooking area 12 from the temperature of the first cooking area 11 based on the temperature correspondence between the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12. Similarly, when the temperature sensing module is configured in the second cooking area 12, the temperature of the first cooking area 11 and the temperature of the second cooking area 12 can also be calculated respectively. The temperature correspondence between the first cooking area 11 and the second cooking area 12 can be obtained based on experience or estimated based on the position relationship.
[0069] Dear reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the temperature detection unit 50 includes a first temperature sensing module 52 and a second temperature sensing module 54. The first temperature sensing module 52 is configured in the first cooking area 11 to obtain the temperature of the first cooking area 11 and output a corresponding first temperature signal to the control unit 40. The second temperature sensing module 54 is configured in the second cooking area 12 to obtain the temperature of the second cooking area 12 and output a corresponding second temperature signal to the control unit 40. In some embodiments, the temperature sensing module can measure temperature based on an NTC thermistor or a PTC thermistor.
[0070] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments, the cooking device further includes a first driving unit 60 and a second driving unit 70. The first driving unit 60 is used to drive the first heating unit 20 to turn on or off based on the control of the control unit 40, and the second driving unit 70 is used to drive the second heating unit 30 to turn on or off based on the control of the control unit 40.
[0071] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first drive circuit includes a first switch tube Q2 and a first relay REL1. The first switch tube Q2 has a first pole, a second pole and a control pole, and the first relay REL1 has a contact side (pins 1 and 2 of REL1) and a coil side (pins 3 and 4 of REL1). The first pole of the first switch tube Q2 is grounded, the control pole of the first switch tube Q2 is used to input the first on signal or the first off signal (Heater_Up) output by the control unit 40, the second pole of the first switch tube Q2 is connected in series with the coil side of the first relay REL1, one end of the contact side of the first relay REL1 (pin 4 of REL1) is used to connect the first heating unit 20 (HEATER_UP), and the other end of the contact side of the first relay REL1 (pin 3 of REL1) is used to connect the power supply.
[0072] In some embodiments, the second driving circuit includes a second switch tube Q3 and a second relay REL2. The second switch tube Q3 has a first pole, a second pole and a control pole, the second relay REL2 has a contact side (pins 1 and 2 of REL2) and a coil side (pins 3 and 4 of REL2), the first pole of the second switch tube Q3 is grounded, the control pole of the second switch tube Q3 is used to input the second conduction signal or the second cut-off signal (Heater_down) output by the control unit 40, the second pole of the second switch tube Q3 is connected in series with the coil side of the second relay REL2, one end of the contact side of the second relay REL2 (pin 4 of REL2) is used to connect the second heating unit 30 (HEATER_DOWN), and the other end of the contact side of the second relay REL2 (pin 3 of REL2) is used to connect the power supply.
[0073] Among them, the first switch tube Q2 and the second switch tube Q3 can be implemented based on transistors such as triodes or field effect tubes, and the first conduction signal and the second conduction signal can be high-level signals, and the first cut-off signal and the second cut-off signal can be low-level signals. When the control unit 40 outputs the first conduction signal, the first switch tube Q2 is turned on, so that the coil side of the first relay REL1 is energized, so that the contact side of the first relay REL1 is closed, and the first heating unit 20 is connected to the power supply to achieve opening. Conversely, when the control unit 40 outputs the first cut-off signal, the first switch tube Q2 is turned off, so that the coil side of the first relay REL1 is de-energized, so that the contact side of the first relay REL1 is opened, and the first heating unit 20 is disconnected from the power supply to achieve closing. When the control unit 40 outputs the second conduction signal, the second switch tube Q3 is turned on, so that the coil side of the second relay REL2 is energized, so that the contact side of the second relay REL2 is closed, and the second heating unit 30 is connected to the power supply to achieve opening. On the contrary, when the control unit 40 outputs the second cutoff signal, the second switch tube Q3 is cut off, so that the coil side of the second relay REL2 is de-energized, so that the contact side of the second relay REL2 is opened, and the second heating unit 30 is disconnected from the power supply to be turned off.
[0074] In the above embodiment, based on the first driving unit 60 and the second driving unit 70, independent driving of the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 in the circuit structure can be achieved without affecting each other, so as to ensure that the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 can be accurately controlled and driven.
[0075] In some embodiments, the cooking device further includes a communication module 80, which is used to communicate with the user terminal to transmit data with the user terminal, for example, it can receive control instructions issued by the user terminal, or receive configuration instructions to configure the preset conditions for turning on and off the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30. For example, uploading corresponding cooking data to the user terminal, such as uploading information such as cooking temperature and cooking time. Among them, the communication module 80 may include a wired communication module, such as a USB communication module, etc., and may also include a wireless communication module, such as a Bluetooth communication module, a WIFI communication module, etc.
[0076] In some embodiments, the cooking device has a rated power, that is, a preset limit power, and the control unit 40 can control the first heating unit 20 to heat at a first power, and can control the second heating unit 30 to heat at a second power, and the total power of the first power and the second power is greater than the preset limit power. The first power can be the maximum power of the first heating unit 20, and the second power can be the maximum power of the second heating unit 30, both of which are less than or equal to the preset limit power.
[0077] The above is some description of the cooking equipment. The following is a specific description of the cooking process of the cooking equipment.
[0078] The processing unit first determines the priority relationship between the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30. The priority relationship may be default, for example, the first heating unit 20 has a higher priority than the second heating unit 30. It may also be set by a user, for example, the user configures the priority relationship between the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 based on a control panel of the cooking device or based on a user terminal.
[0079] The processing unit obtains the preset conditions for turning on and off the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 respectively, which may be set by the user or by default.
[0080] When the processing unit determines that the preset conditions corresponding to the turning on of the high-priority heating unit are met, it controls the high-priority heating unit to heat and the low-priority heating unit to stop heating; and when the preset conditions corresponding to the turning off of the high-priority heating unit are met, it controls the high-priority heating unit to stop heating, so as to complete a heating cycle of the high-priority heating unit and enter a non-heating cycle of the high-priority heating unit.
[0081] In this embodiment, when the heating unit with a high priority is the first heating unit 20, the heating unit with a low priority is the second heating unit 30. When the heating unit with a high priority is the second heating unit 30, the heating unit with a low priority is the first heating unit 20. In this embodiment, a heating cycle is the time period from the current start of heating to the stop of heating of the heating unit with a high priority, and a non-heating cycle is the time period from the current stop of heating to the next start of heating of the heating unit with a high priority.
[0082] When the processing unit is in a non-heating cycle and determines that the preset conditions corresponding to the turning on of the low-priority heating unit are met, the processing unit controls the low-priority heating unit to heat; and when the preset conditions corresponding to the turning off of the low-priority heating unit are met, the processing unit controls the low-priority heating unit to stop heating.
[0083] In some embodiments, the control unit 40 is used to control the heating unit with a high priority to complete at least two heating cycles. For example, when the heating unit with a high priority is in a heating cycle, its corresponding cooking area may maintain a preset cooking temperature range for a certain period of time. At this time, it is not necessary to keep the heating unit with a high priority turned on, so it is turned off and enters a non-heating cycle. When the corresponding cooking area cannot meet the cooking conditions, the heating unit with a high priority needs to re-enter the heating cycle, so that the heating unit with a high priority completes at least two heating cycles to meet the cooking requirements of the food.
[0084] In the above embodiment, the heating unit with a high priority is turned on only when the heating unit with a high priority does not need to heat and the heating unit with a low priority needs to heat, so that the heating unit with a high priority is preferentially satisfied to heat the food.
[0085] In the above embodiment, the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 are independent in circuit structure and start and close conditions, so that the first heating unit 20 and the second heating unit 30 can be controlled to heat the food under precise cooking conditions respectively, thereby meeting the user's needs for food cooking.
[0086] The above are some instructions for cooking equipment.
