Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cooking appliances, and more specifically, to a control method, device, readable storage medium, and cooking appliance. Background Art

[0002] In the related art, a cooking appliance may have multiple different heating modes, which are achieved by different heating components working.

[0003] During actual operation, the cooking appliance only enables the heating component corresponding to the cooking mode selected by the user to work. However, due to the different installation positions of different heating components, the temperature change inside the cooking cavity is uneven during the heating process. There may be a problem that the part of the food close to the heating component is already burnt, while the part far from the heating component is not yet cooked, which affects the cooking effect of the cooking appliance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.

[0005] To this end, a first aspect of the present application provides a control method.

[0006] A second aspect of the present application provides a control device.

[0007] A third aspect of the present application provides a control device.

[0008] A fourth aspect of the present application provides a readable storage medium.

[0009] A fifth aspect of the present application provides a cooking appliance.

[0010] In view of this, a first aspect of the present application provides a control method, which is executed by a cooking appliance. The cooking appliance includes a cooking cavity, an air fry heating component, and a hot plate heating component. The cooking cavity includes a first region and a second region. The air fry heating component is used to supply heat to the first region, and the hot plate heating component is used to supply heat to the second region. The control method includes: in response to a cooking start signal, controlling at least one of the air fry heating component and the hot plate heating component to start working; obtaining the temperature value and cooking duration inside the cooking cavity; and adjusting the heating power of at least one of the air fry heating component and the hot plate heating component according to the temperature value and cooking duration.

[0011] In this technical solution, the cooking device includes a cooking cavity for accommodating the ingredients to be cooked. At least two heating elements are provided in the cooking cavity, specifically including an air fry heating element and a hot plate heating element. Exemplarily, the air fry heating element can be a heating element for heating means such as air frying. In some embodiments, the air fry heating element is disposed in the upper region of the cooking cavity, and the hot plate heating element can be a bottom hot plate heating element. In other embodiments, both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are disposed in the lower region of the cooking cavity. Among them, the air fry heating element includes a heat pipe and a blower, and the blower can guide the heat generated by the heat pipe of the air fry heating element to the upper region of the cooking cavity through the air flow.

[0012] Among them, the cooking cavity specifically includes a first region and a second region. Exemplarily, the first region and the second region respectively correspond to the upper region and the bottom region of the cooking cavity. Exemplarily, the first region is the upper half region of the cooking cavity, and the second region is the lower half region of the cooking cavity.

[0013] The cooking start signal is specifically used to indicate the start of the cooking process of the cooking device. The cooking start signal can be a signal generated when the user presses the start cooking button, or a signal sent by the user to the cooking device through a terminal device such as a mobile phone or a remote control. The cooking start signal can also be a signal generated by the control circuit of the cooking device itself after the cooking starts.

[0014] After detecting the cooking start signal, the cooking device controls one or both of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating. Among them, exemplarily, the cooking device can first control the air fry heating element to start heating, and then control the hot plate heating element to start heating after the temperature value in the first region reaches the set value. Exemplarily, the cooking device can first control the hot plate heating element to start heating, and then control the air fry heating element to start heating after the temperature value in the second region reaches the set value.

[0015] Exemplarily, the cooking device can control the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating simultaneously, and control one or both of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop heating after the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches the set value.

[0016] After the cooking device starts working, continuously detect the temperature value in the cooking cavity and record the cooking duration. Among them, the temperature value in the cooking cavity can be the average value of the temperature values in the first region and the second region, or the cooking device can separately detect the temperature values in the first region and the second region.

[0017] The cooking duration can refer to the total duration of the cooking operation of the cooking device, or the stage duration of a certain cooking stage of the cooking device, or the cumulative working duration of the air fry heating element or the hot plate heating element.

[0018] The cooking device adjusts the working modes of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element according to the currently detected temperature value in the cooking cavity and in combination with the recorded cooking duration, specifically including adjusting the heating power of one or both of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element.

[0019] It can be understood that adjusting the heating power of the air fry heating element or the hot plate heating element includes increasing the heating power, decreasing the heating power, and also includes turning on or turning off the heating element.

[0020] Through the technical solution of the present application, during cooking, according to cooking information such as the temperature value and cooking duration during the cooking process, heating is performed by combining one or both of the air fry heating assembly and the hot plate heating assembly, which can achieve uniform heat supply to different areas in the cooking cavity, make the food in the cooking cavity heat more evenly, and improve the cooking effect.

[0021] In addition, the control method in the above technical solution provided by the present application may also have the following additional technical features:

[0022] In some technical solutions of the present application, optionally, the step of controlling at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to a cooking start signal specifically includes: controlling one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to a cooking start signal.

[0023] In the technical solution of the present application, after detecting the cooking start signal, the cooking device controls one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working. If the user selects the heating mode as air fry, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of air fry, and preferentially increases the temperature of the first area. After the temperature in the first area reaches the standard, then controls the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0024] Exemplarily, the air fry heating element is an air fry heating element, and the hot plate heating element is a bottom hot plate heating element. If the user selects the heating mode as the stir-fry mode, the cooking device controls the hot plate heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of the stir-fry mode, and preferentially increases the temperature of the second area. After the temperature in the second area reaches the standard, then controls the air fry heating element to start working.

[0025] After receiving the cooking start signal, the technical solution of the present application preferentially starts one of the multiple heating elements corresponding to the cooking mode according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking start signal. After the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches the standard, then starts another heating element to balance the temperature of multiple areas, while making the heating uniform and improving the cooking effect.

[0026] In some technical solutions of the present application, optionally, the step of controlling at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to a cooking start signal specifically includes: controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to the cooking start signal.

[0027] In this technical solution, after detecting the cooking start signal, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working simultaneously. When the user selects the heating mode as air fry, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of air fry, and controls the hot plate heating element to start heating simultaneously, so as to increase the temperature of the first area and the second area at the same time, and thus make the temperature in the cooking cavity rise evenly.

[0028] After receiving the cooking start signal, the technical solution of the present application starts multiple heating elements of the cooking device to work simultaneously, so that the temperatures of multiple areas in the cooking cavity rise at the same time, the ingredients in the cooking cavity are evenly heated, and the cooking effect is improved.

[0029] In some embodiments of the present application, the step of adjusting the heating power of at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element according to the temperature value and cooking duration includes: controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and cooking duration.

[0030] In this technical solution, after the cooking device starts the cooking operation, the cooking device controls one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating work, or the cooking device controls both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating work.

[0031] After at least one heating element starts working, the cooking device continuously collects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and accumulates the cooking duration. When the temperature value meets the condition, or when the cooking duration reaches the duration for switching the cooking stage, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately.

[0032] Specifically, the alternate work of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element means that after one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element starts working and heats to a certain stage, this heating element stops heating and switches to the other heating element of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working. After heating to a certain stage, the current heating element stops heating again and continues to switch to the other heating element to start heating, and so on in a cycle.

[0033] Exemplarily, after detecting a cooking start signal, the air fry heating element starts heating. After the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain threshold or the cooking duration reaches a certain threshold, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element starts working. After the hot plate heating element starts working, if the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches another threshold or the cooking duration reaches another threshold, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element continues to work, and so on in a cycle.

[0034] Exemplarily, after detecting a cooking start signal, the hot plate heating element starts heating. After the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain threshold or the cooking duration reaches a certain threshold, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element starts working. After the air fry heating element starts working, if the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches another threshold or the cooking duration reaches another threshold, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element continues to work, and so on in a cycle.

[0035] After the cooking device starts cooking, the technical solution of the present application controls multiple heating elements of the cooking device to work alternately, so that the temperature of multiple regions in the cooking cavity rises evenly, the ingredients in the cooking cavity can be heated evenly, and the cooking effect is improved.

[0036] In some technical solutions of the present application, optionally, before the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration, the control method further includes: when both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are in a working state and satisfy at least one of the temperature value being greater than or equal to the first temperature threshold and the cooking duration being greater than or equal to the first duration threshold, controlling the hot plate heating element to stop working; after the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration, the control method further includes: when the air fry heating element is in a working state and the temperature value is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, controlling the air fry heating element to stop working; wherein, the second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold; when both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are in a non-working state and the temperature value is less than the second temperature threshold, controlling the air fry heating element to start working.

[0037] In this technical solution, exemplarily, the air fry heating element is an air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element is a bottom hot plate heating element. When the cooking device starts working, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working simultaneously. On the one hand, both heating elements are preheated, and on the other hand, the temperatures of two regions in the cooking cavity rise simultaneously.

[0038] The first temperature threshold can be the temperature threshold at which the temperature in the cooking cavity first reaches the standard, or it can also be the temperature threshold at which the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element complete preheating. The first duration threshold is specifically the duration threshold for the stage transition of the cooking stage where the two heating elements heat simultaneously in the early stage of cooking.

[0039] After the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element start working simultaneously, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and accumulates the cooking duration.

[0040] If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the first temperature threshold, it is determined that the temperature in the cooking cavity has risen to a suitable temperature at this time, meeting the condition for entering the stage of alternating heating of the two heating elements. At this time, the hot plate heating element is controlled to stop heating, and the air fry heating element is used to cook the food. After meeting the conditions, the air fry heating element is controlled to stop heating, and the hot plate heating element is controlled to continue heating to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity.

[0041] Similarly, if it is detected that the cooking duration reaches the first duration threshold, it is determined that the current cooking stage ends and directly jumps to the next cooking stage, that is, the alternating heating stage. At this time, the hot plate heating element is also controlled to stop heating, and the air fry heating element is used to cook the food. After meeting the conditions, the air fry heating element is controlled to stop heating, and the hot plate heating element is controlled to continue heating to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity.

[0042] Exemplarily, the value range of the first duration threshold is from 1 minute to 10 minutes. Exemplarily, the first duration threshold is 3 minutes. Exemplarily, the first duration threshold is 5 minutes.

[0043] Exemplarily, the value range of the first temperature threshold is from 100 °C to 200 °C. Exemplarily, the first temperature threshold is 120 °C. Exemplarily, the first temperature threshold is 180 °C.

[0044] By controlling the two heating elements to start heating work simultaneously before the alternating heating stage, both heating elements can complete preheating, and the temperature in the cooking cavity can rise rapidly, improving cooking efficiency.

[0045] In some technical solutions of the present application, optionally, the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to alternately work according to the temperature value and the cooking duration specifically includes: when at least one of the temperature value being greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold and the cooking duration being greater than or equal to the second duration threshold is satisfied, controlling the heating element in the working state among the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working, and controlling the other heating element in the non - working state among the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0046] In this technical solution, the second temperature threshold is specifically the upper limit value of the temperature in the cooking cavity, and the second temperature threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the target cooking temperature input by the user. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is equal to the target cooking temperature set by the user.

[0047] The second duration threshold is specifically the maximum duration for which a heating element continuously heats. Exemplarily, the cooking duration includes the duration for which each heating element individually heats, and the cooking device separately compares whether the duration for which each heating element individually heats reaches the second duration threshold.

[0048] Exemplarily, the cooking duration is the total cooking duration of the cooking device. The cooking device separately records the duration of each cooking stage, and subtracts the sum of the cooking durations of all previous cooking stages from the total cooking duration to obtain the working duration of the currently independently operating heating element.

[0049] After starting to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity using the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and determines whether the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the second temperature threshold.

[0050] If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the second temperature threshold, then control the one heating element that is currently in the working state to stop working, and control the other heating element that is currently in the non - working state to start working, so as to maintain the temperature in the cooking cavity at the second temperature threshold and make the heat in the cooking cavity evenly distributed.

[0051] If it is detected that the working duration of a heating element reaches the second duration threshold, that is, after heating for a long enough time by a heating element, also control the one heating element that is currently in the working state to stop working, and control the other heating element that is currently in the non - working state to start working.

[0052] Exemplarily, the value range of the second temperature threshold is from 120°C to 250°C. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is 160°C. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is 200°C.

[0053] Exemplarily, the value range of the second duration threshold is from 2 minutes to 5 minutes. Exemplarily, the second duration threshold is 3 minutes. Exemplarily, the second duration threshold is 4 minutes.

[0054] Exemplarily, when the current air fry heating element is in the working state, when it is detected that the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches 200°C, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element starts working. After the working duration of the hot plate heating element reaches 3 minutes, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element starts working.

[0055] The technical solution of this application can make the ingredients in the cooking cavity be evenly heated by controlling multiple heating elements to work alternately, avoiding situations such as too high or excessive local temperature, and improving the cooking effect.

[0056] In some technical solutions of this application, optionally, after the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration, the control method further includes: controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working; when the temperature value is greater than or equal to the fourth temperature threshold, controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working; when the temperature value is less than the fourth temperature threshold, controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0057] In this technical solution, after the stage of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element working alternately is completed, the cooking device controls the two heating elements to work simultaneously again to perform double heating on the ingredients in the cooking cavity.

[0058] Among them, the third temperature threshold is specifically the upper limit value of the temperature in the cooking cavity, and the third temperature threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the target cooking temperature input by the user. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is equal to the target cooking temperature set by the user.

[0059] Exemplarily, the value range of the third temperature threshold is 120°C to 250°C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 160°C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200°C.

[0060] During the double heating process, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and determines whether the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the third temperature threshold. If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the third temperature threshold, the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are controlled to stop working simultaneously to prevent the temperature from being too high and causing the food to stick to the pot.

[0061] After the temperature value in the cooking cavity drops below the third temperature threshold, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work simultaneously again.

[0062] By controlling the two heating elements to heat the ingredients in the cooking cavity simultaneously in the final stage of cooking, the cooking effect of "finishing with high heat" can be achieved, making the surface of the cooked food golden and crispy and improving the cooking effect.

[0063] In some technical solutions of this application, optionally, when the cooking duration is greater than or equal to the third duration threshold, a cooking end signal is generated; in response to the cooking end signal, a corresponding prompt message is output.

[0064] In this technical solution, the second duration threshold is a time threshold indicating the end of cooking, and the second duration threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the cooking duration specified by the user. Exemplarily, if the user sets the cooking mode to: "200 °C, 60 minutes", then the third duration threshold is 60 minutes.

[0065] After the cooking duration reaches the second duration threshold, the cooking device determines that the cooking is over. At this time, the cooking device generates a corresponding cooking end signal and controls both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working.

[0066] After detecting the cooking technology signal, the cooking device outputs a prompt message. This prompt message can be the cooking end information displayed on the display screen set on the cooking device, or the audio information for prompting the end of cooking played through the speaker set on the cooking device, or the prompt message sent by the cooking device to the user terminal through the network.

[0067] By outputting the corresponding prompt message after the cooking is over, it can remind the user that the cooking of the cooking device is over. The user can take away the cooked food in time or set the cooking device to enter the heat preservation mode, improving the convenience of the cooking device.

[0068] In some technical solutions of the present application, optionally, the third temperature threshold is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, and the second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold; the third duration threshold is greater than the second duration threshold, and the second duration threshold is greater than the first duration threshold.

[0069] In this technical solution, the third temperature threshold is greater than the second temperature threshold and the first temperature threshold. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200 °C, the second temperature threshold is 200 °C, and the first temperature threshold is 180 °C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200 °C, the second temperature threshold is 180 °C, and the first temperature threshold is 120 °C.

[0070] The third duration threshold is greater than the second duration threshold, and the second duration threshold is greater than the first duration threshold. Exemplarily, the third duration threshold is 60 min, the second duration threshold is 5 min, and the first duration threshold is 3 min. Exemplarily, the third duration threshold is 15 min, the second duration threshold is 4 min, and the first duration threshold is 1 min.

[0071] The second aspect of the present application provides a control device, which is applied to a cooking device. The cooking device includes a cooking cavity, an air fry heating element and a hot plate heating element. The cooking cavity includes a first region and a second region. The air fry heating element is used to supply heat to the first region, and the hot plate heating element is used to supply heat to the second region. The control device includes: a control module, configured to control at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to a cooking start signal; an acquisition module, configured to acquire the temperature value and cooking duration in the cooking cavity; and an adjustment module, configured to adjust the heating power of at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element according to the temperature value and cooking duration.

[0072] In this technical solution, the cooking device includes a cooking cavity for accommodating the ingredients to be cooked. There are at least two heating elements arranged in the cooking cavity, specifically including an air fry heating element and a hot plate heating element. Exemplarily, the air fry heating element can be a heating element for heating means such as air frying. In some embodiments, the air fry heating element is arranged in the upper region of the cooking cavity, and the hot plate heating element can be a bottom hot plate heating element. In other embodiments, both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are arranged in the lower region of the cooking cavity. Among them, the air fry heating element includes a heat pipe and a blower, and the blower can guide the heat generated by the heat pipe of the air fry heating element to the upper region of the cooking cavity through air flow.

[0073] Among them, the cooking cavity specifically includes a first region and a second region. Exemplarily, the first region and the second region respectively correspond to the upper region and the bottom region of the cooking cavity. Exemplarily, the first region is the upper half region of the cooking cavity, and the second region is the lower half region of the cooking cavity.

[0074] The cooking start signal is specifically used to indicate the start of the cooking process of the cooking device. The cooking start signal can be a signal generated when the user presses the start cooking button, or a signal sent by the user to the cooking device through a terminal device such as a mobile phone or a remote control. The cooking start signal can also be a signal generated by the control circuit of the cooking device itself after the cooking starts.

[0075] After detecting the cooking start signal, the cooking device controls one or both of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating. Among them, exemparily, the cooking device can first control the air fry heating element to start heating, and then control the hot plate heating element to start heating after the temperature value in the first region reaches the set value. Exemplarily, the cooking device can first control the hot plate heating element to start heating, and then control the air fry heating element to start heating after the temperature value in the second region reaches the set value.

[0076] Exemplarily, the cooking device may control the air frying heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating at the same time, and after the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches a set value, control one or both of the air frying heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop heating.

[0077] After the cooking device starts working, the temperature value in the cooking cavity is continuously detected and the cooking time is recorded. The temperature value in the cooking cavity may be an average of the temperature value in the first area and the temperature value in the second area, or the cooking device may detect the temperature value in the first area and the temperature value in the second area separately.

[0078] The cooking time may refer to the total duration of the cooking operation of the cooking device, or may refer to the stage duration of a certain cooking stage of the cooking device, or may refer to the accumulated working time of an air frying heating element or a hot plate heating element.

[0079] The cooking device adjusts the working mode of the air frying heater and the hot plate heater according to the currently detected temperature value in the cooking cavity and the recorded cooking time, specifically including adjusting the heating power of one or both of the air frying heater and the hot plate heater.

[0080] It can be understood that adjusting the heating power of the air frying heating element or the hot plate heating element includes increasing the heating power, reducing the heating power, and also turning the heating element on or off.

[0081] The technical solution of the present application can achieve uniform heat supply to different areas in the cooking cavity by heating through one or a combination of an air frying heating component and a hot plate heating component according to cooking information such as the temperature value and cooking time during the cooking process, so that the food in the cooking cavity is heated more evenly and the cooking effect is improved.

Exemplarily, the air fry heating element can be a heating element for heating means such as air frying. In some embodiments, as Figure 1A shown, the air fry heating element is disposed in the upper region of the cooking cavity, and the hot plate heating element can be a bottom hot plate heating element. In other embodiments, as Figure 1B shown, both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are disposed in the lower region of the cooking cavity. Among them, the air fry heating element includes a heat pipe and a blower, and the blower can guide the heat generated by the heat pipe of the air fry heating element to the upper region of the cooking cavity through the air flow.

[0104] Among them, the cooking cavity specifically includes a first region and a second region. Exemplarily, the first region and the second region respectively correspond to the upper region and the bottom region of the cooking cavity. Exemplarily, the first region is the upper half region of the cooking cavity, and the second region is the lower half region of the cooking cavity.

[0105] The cooking start signal is specifically used to indicate the start of the cooking process of the cooking device. The cooking start signal can be a signal generated when the user presses a button to start cooking. The cooking start signal can also be a signal sent by the user to the cooking device through a terminal device such as a mobile phone or a remote control. The cooking start signal can also be a signal generated by the control circuit of the cooking device itself after cooking starts.

[0106] After detecting the cooking start signal, the cooking device controls one or both of the air frying heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating. Exemplarily, the cooking device may first control the air frying heating element to start heating, and after the temperature value in the first area reaches the set value, control the hot plate heating element to start heating. Exemplarily, the cooking device may first control the hot plate heating element to start heating, and after the temperature value in the second area reaches the set value, control the air frying heating element to start heating.

[0107] Exemplarily, the cooking device may control the air frying heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating at the same time, and after the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches a set value, control one or both of the air frying heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop heating.

[0108] After the cooking device starts working, the temperature value in the cooking cavity is continuously detected and the cooking time is recorded. The temperature value in the cooking cavity may be an average of the temperature value in the first area and the temperature value in the second area, or the cooking device may detect the temperature value in the first area and the temperature value in the second area separately.

[0109] The cooking time may refer to the total duration of the cooking operation of the cooking device, or may refer to the stage duration of a certain cooking stage of the cooking device, or may refer to the accumulated working time of an air frying heating element or a hot plate heating element.

[0110] The cooking device adjusts the working mode of the air frying heater and the hot plate heater according to the currently detected temperature value in the cooking cavity and the recorded cooking time, specifically including adjusting the heating power of one or both of the air frying heater and the hot plate heater.

[0111] It can be understood that adjusting the heating power of the air frying heating element or the hot plate heating element includes increasing the heating power, reducing the heating power, and also turning the heating element on or off.

[0112] The technical solution of the present application can achieve uniform heat supply to different areas in the cooking cavity by heating through one or a combination of an air frying heating component and a hot plate heating component according to cooking information such as the temperature value and cooking time during the cooking process, so that the food in the cooking cavity is heated more evenly and the cooking effect is improved.

[0113] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the step of controlling at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to a cooking start signal specifically includes: controlling one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to the cooking start signal.

[0114] In an embodiment of the present application, after detecting a cooking start signal, the cooking device controls one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working. If the user selects the heating mode as air fry, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of air fry, and preferentially increases the temperature of the first area. After the temperature in the first area reaches the standard, the cooking device then controls the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0115] Exemplarily, the air fry heating element is an air fry heating element, and the hot plate heating element is a bottom hot plate heating element. If the user selects the heating mode as the stir-fry mode, the cooking device controls the hot plate heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of the stir-fry mode, and preferentially increases the temperature of the second area. After the temperature in the second area reaches the standard, the cooking device then controls the air fry heating element to start working.

[0116] After receiving the cooking start signal, the embodiment of the present application preferentially starts one heating element corresponding to the cooking mode among multiple heating elements according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking start signal. After the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches the standard, another heating element is started to balance the temperature of multiple areas, while making the heating uniform and improving the cooking effect.

[0117] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the step of controlling at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to a cooking start signal specifically includes: controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to the cooking start signal.

[0118] In this embodiment, after detecting the cooking start signal, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working simultaneously. If the user selects the heating mode as air fry, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of air fry, and controls the hot plate heating element to start heating simultaneously, so as to increase the temperature of the first area and the second area simultaneously, thereby making the temperature in the cooking cavity rise evenly.

[0119] After receiving the cooking start signal, the embodiment of the present application starts multiple heating elements of the cooking device to start working simultaneously, so that the temperatures of multiple areas in the cooking cavity rise simultaneously, making the food materials in the cooking cavity evenly heated and improving the cooking effect.

[0120] In some embodiments of the present application, the step of adjusting the heating power of at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element according to the temperature value and the cooking duration includes: controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration.

[0121] In this embodiment, after the cooking device starts the cooking operation, the cooking device controls one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating work, or the cooking device controls both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating work.

[0122] After at least one heating element starts to work, the cooking device continuously collects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and accumulates the cooking duration. When the temperature value meets the condition, or when the cooking duration reaches the duration for switching the cooking stage, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately.

[0123] Specifically, the alternate operation of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element means that after one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element starts to work and heats to a certain stage, this heating element stops heating and switches to the other heating element among the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working. After heating to a certain stage, the current heating element stops heating again and continues to switch to the other heating element to start heating, and so on in a cycle.

[0124] Exemplarily, after detecting the cooking start signal, the air fry heating element starts to heat. When the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches a certain threshold, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element starts to work. After the hot plate heating element starts to work, if the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches another threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches another threshold, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element continues to work, and so on in a cycle.

[0125] Exemplarily, after detecting the cooking start signal, the hot plate heating element starts to heat. When the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches a certain threshold, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element starts to work. After the air fry heating element starts to work, if the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches another threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches another threshold, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element continues to work, and so on in a cycle.

[0126] In the embodiment of the present application, after the cooking device starts cooking, it controls multiple heating elements of the cooking device to work alternately, so that the temperature in multiple areas of the cooking cavity rises evenly, which can make the ingredients in the cooking cavity be heated evenly and improve the cooking effect.

[0127] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, before the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration, the control method further includes: when both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are in the working state and at least one of the temperature value is greater than or equal to the first temperature threshold and the cooking duration is greater than or equal to the first duration threshold is satisfied, controlling the hot plate heating element to stop working; after the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration, the control method further includes: when the air fry heating element is in the working state and the temperature value is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, controlling the air fry heating element to stop working; wherein, the second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold; when both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are in the non-working state and the temperature value is less than the second temperature threshold, controlling the air fry heating element to start working.

[0128] In this embodiment, exemplarily, the air fry heating element is an air fry heating element, and the hot plate heating element is a bottom hot plate heating element. When the cooking device starts to work, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working simultaneously. On the one hand, both heating elements are preheated, and on the other hand, the temperatures of two areas in the cooking cavity rise simultaneously.

[0129] The first temperature threshold can be the temperature threshold at which the temperature in the cooking cavity initially reaches the standard, or the temperature threshold at which the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are preheated. The first duration threshold is specifically the stage transition duration threshold of the cooking stage in the early stage of cooking when the two heating elements heat simultaneously.

[0130] After the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element start working simultaneously, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and accumulates the cooking duration.

[0131] If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the first temperature threshold, it is determined that the temperature in the cooking cavity has risen to a suitable temperature at this time, meeting the condition for entering the alternate heating stage of the two heating elements. At this time, the hot plate heating element is controlled to stop heating, and the air fry heating element is used to cook the food. After meeting the conditions, the air fry heating element is controlled to stop heating, and the hot plate heating element is controlled to continue heating to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity.

[0132] Similarly, if it is detected that the cooking duration reaches the first duration threshold, it is determined that the current cooking stage ends and directly jumps to the next cooking stage, that is, the alternate heating stage. At this time, the hot plate heating element is also controlled to stop heating, and the air fry heating element is used to cook the food. After meeting the conditions, the air fry heating element is controlled to stop heating, and the hot plate heating element is controlled to continue heating to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity.

[0133] Exemplarily, the value range of the first duration threshold is from 1 minute to 10 minutes. Exemplarily, the first duration threshold is 3 minutes. Exemplarily, the first duration threshold is 5 minutes.

[0134] Exemplarily, the value range of the first temperature threshold is from 100°C to 200°C. Exemplarily, the first temperature threshold is 120°C. Exemplarily, the first temperature threshold is 180°C.

[0135] By controlling the two heating elements to start heating work simultaneously before the alternating heating stage, both heating elements can complete preheating, and the temperature in the cooking cavity can rise rapidly, improving cooking efficiency.

[0136] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and cooking duration specifically includes: when at least one of the temperature value being greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold and the cooking duration being greater than or equal to the second duration threshold is satisfied, controlling the heating element in the working state among the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working, and controlling the other heating element in the non - working state among the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0137] In this embodiment, the second temperature threshold is specifically the upper limit value of the temperature in the cooking cavity, and the second temperature threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the target cooking temperature input by the user. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is equal to the target cooking temperature set by the user.

[0138] The second duration threshold is specifically the maximum duration for which a heating element continuously heats. Exemplarily, the cooking duration includes the duration for which each heating element heats alone, and the cooking device separately compares whether the duration for which each heating element heats alone reaches the second duration threshold.

[0139] Exemplarily, the cooking duration is the total cooking duration of the cooking device. The cooking device separately records the duration of each cooking stage, and subtracts the sum of the cooking durations of all previous cooking stages from the total cooking duration to obtain the working duration of the currently separately working heating element.

[0140] After starting to alternately heat the ingredients in the cooking cavity by the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and determines whether the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the second temperature threshold.

[0141] If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the second temperature threshold, then control the heating element in the current working state to stop working, and control the other heating element in the non - working state to start working, so as to maintain the temperature in the cooking cavity at the second temperature threshold and make the heat in the cooking cavity evenly distributed.

[0142] When it is detected that the working duration of a heating element reaches the second duration threshold, that is, after heating with a heating element for a sufficient long time, the currently working heating element is also controlled to stop working, and another heating element that is currently in the non-working state is controlled to start working.

[0143] Exemplarily, the value range of the second temperature threshold is from 120 °C to 250 °C. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is 160 °C. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is 200 °C.

[0144] Exemplarily, the value range of the second duration threshold is from 2 minutes to 5 minutes. Exemplarily, the second duration threshold is 3 minutes. Exemplarily, the second duration threshold is 4 minutes.

[0145] Exemplarily, when the current air fry heating element is in the working state, when it is detected that the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches 200 °C, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element starts working. After the working duration of the hot plate heating element reaches 3 minutes, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element starts working.

[0146] By controlling the multiple heating elements to work alternately in the embodiments of the present application, the ingredients in the cooking cavity can be evenly heated, avoiding situations such as too high or excessive local temperature, and improving the cooking effect.

[0147] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, after the step of controlling the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration, the control method further includes: controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working; when the temperature value is greater than or equal to the fourth temperature threshold, controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working; when the temperature value is less than the fourth temperature threshold, controlling both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0148] In this embodiment, after the stage of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element working alternately is completed, the cooking device controls the two heating elements to work simultaneously again to double heat the ingredients in the cooking cavity.

[0149] Wherein, the third temperature threshold is specifically the upper limit value of the temperature in the cooking cavity, and the third temperature threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the target cooking temperature input by the user. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is equal to the target cooking temperature set by the user.

[0150] Exemplarily, the value range of the third temperature threshold is from 120 °C to 250 °C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 160 °C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200 °C.

[0151] During the double heating process, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and determines whether the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the third temperature threshold. If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the third temperature threshold, the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are controlled to stop working simultaneously to prevent the food from burning due to excessive temperature.

[0152] After the temperature value in the cooking cavity drops below the third temperature threshold, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work simultaneously again.

[0153] By controlling the two heating elements to heat the food in the cooking cavity simultaneously in the final stage of cooking, the cooking effect of "finishing with high heat" can be achieved, making the surface of the cooked food golden and crispy and improving the cooking effect.

[0154] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the control method further includes: generating a cooking end signal when the cooking duration is greater than or equal to the second duration threshold; and outputting a corresponding prompt message in response to the cooking end signal.

[0155] In this embodiment, the second duration threshold is a time threshold indicating the end of cooking, and the second duration threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the cooking duration specified by the user. Exemplarily, if the user sets the cooking mode to: "200 °C, 60 minutes", then the third duration threshold is 60 minutes.

[0156] When the cooking duration reaches the second duration threshold, the cooking device determines that the cooking is over. At this time, the cooking device generates a corresponding cooking end signal and controls both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working.

[0157] After detecting the cooking end signal, the cooking device outputs a prompt message, which can be the cooking end information displayed on the display screen set on the cooking device, or the audio information for prompting the end of cooking played through the speaker set on the cooking device, or the prompt message sent by the cooking device to the user terminal through the network.

[0158] By outputting a corresponding prompt message after cooking is over, the user can be reminded that the cooking of the cooking device is over. The user can take away the cooked food in time or set the cooking device to enter the heat preservation mode, improving the convenience of the cooking device.

[0159] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the third temperature threshold is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, and the second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold; the third duration threshold is greater than the second duration threshold, and the second duration threshold is greater than the first duration threshold.

[0160] In this embodiment, the third temperature threshold is greater than the second temperature threshold and the first temperature threshold. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200 °C, the second temperature threshold is 200 °C, and the first temperature threshold is 180 °C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200 °C, the second temperature threshold is 180 °C, and the first temperature threshold is 120 °C.

[0161] The third duration threshold is greater than the second duration threshold, and the second duration threshold is greater than the first duration threshold. Exemplarily, the third duration threshold is 60 min, the second duration threshold is 5 min, and the first duration threshold is 3 min. Exemplarily, the third duration threshold is 15 min, the second duration threshold is 4 min, and the first duration threshold is 1 min.

[0162] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, Figure 3 The flowchart of the cooking process of some embodiments of the present application is shown, as Figure 3 shown, the cooking process includes multiple heating steps, where each heating step corresponds to a heating mode.

[0163] For example, after cooking is started, the cooking enters heating step 1, where:

[0164] Heating step 1: Heat by the bottom heating component or the air fry heating component or simultaneously use the bottom heating component and the air fry heating component to time t1 or temperature T1, and then enter heating step 2;

[0165] Heating step 2: Heat by the bottom heating component or the air fry heating component or simultaneously use the bottom heating component and the air fry heating component to time t2 or temperature T2, and then enter heating step 2;

[0166] ……

[0167] Heating step n - 1: Heat by the bottom heating component or the air fry heating component or simultaneously use the bottom heating component and the air fry heating component to time tn - 1 or temperature Tn - 1, and then enter heating step n;

[0168] Heating step n: Heat by the bottom heating component or the air fry heating component or simultaneously use the bottom heating component and the air fry heating component to time tn or temperature Tn, and then the cooking ends.

[0169] Wherein, t1, t2... tn - 1, tn are all preset step cooking times, and T1, T2... Tn - 1, Tn are all preset step control temperatures or transition temperatures.

[0170] In some real - time modes, the cooking device first heats the bottom to a specified time or a specified temperature, then uses air frying to heat to a specified time or a specified temperature, and then cycles until the cooking ends.

[0171] Exemplarily, let n = 4, t1 = 3 minutes, t2 = 4 minutes, t3 = 5 minutes, t4 = 6 minutes, T1 = 100 °C, T2 = 150 °C, T3 = 200 °C, T4 = 200 °C.

[0172] Specifically, heating steps 1, 2, and 3 can be migrated by time or temperature, and heating step 4 can only be migrated by time.

[0173] After cooking is started, the cooking enters heating step 1, and the bottom heating component starts heating. When the time reaches 3 minutes or the temperature reaches 100 °C, it enters heating step 2;

[0174] In heating step 2, the bottom heating component stops heating, and the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time reaches 4 minutes or the temperature reaches 150 °C, it enters heating step 3;

[0175] In heating step 3, the air fry heating component stops heating, and the bottom heating component starts heating. When the time reaches 5 minutes or the temperature reaches 200 °C, it enters heating step 4;

[0176] In heating step 4, the bottom heating component stops heating, and the air fry heating component starts heating. When the temperature reaches 200 °C, the air fry heating component stops heating. When the temperature < 200 °C, the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time of this step reaches 6 minutes, the cooking ends.

[0177] In some other embodiments, the cooking device first air fries and heats to a specified time or a specified temperature, then uses bottom heating to a specified time or a specified temperature, and then cycles until the cooking ends.

[0178] Exemplarily, let n = 5, t1 = 3 minutes, t2 = 4 minutes, t3 = 5 minutes, t4 = 6 minutes, t5 = 7 minutes, T1 = 120 °C, T2 = 180 °C, T3 = 200 °C, T4 = 200 °C, T5 = 200 °C.

[0179] Specifically, in heating steps 1, 2, and 3, it can be migrated by time or temperature, and heating steps 4 and 5 can only be migrated by time.

[0180] After cooking is started, the cooking enters heating step 1, and the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time reaches 3 minutes or the temperature reaches 120 °C, it enters heating step 2;

[0181] In heating step 2, the air fry heating component stops heating, and the bottom heating component starts heating. When the time reaches 4 minutes or the temperature reaches 180 °C, it enters heating step 3;

[0182] In heating step 3, the bottom heating component stops heating and the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time reaches 5 minutes or the temperature reaches 200 °C, it enters heating step 4;

[0183] In heating step 4, the air fry heating component stops heating and the bottom heating component starts heating. When the temperature reaches 200 °C, the bottom heating component stops heating. When the temperature < 200 °C, the bottom heating component starts heating. When the time of this step reaches 6 minutes, it enters heating step 5;

[0184] In heating step 5, the bottom heating component stops heating and the air fry heating component starts heating. When the temperature reaches 200 °C, the air fry heating component stops heating. When the temperature < 200 °C, the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time of this step reaches 7 minutes, the cooking ends.

[0185] In some other embodiments, during all or certain steps of cooking, simultaneous heating is adopted to heat to a specified time or a specified temperature, and the remaining steps adopt alternating heating or heating by one of the components until the cooking ends.

[0186] Exemplarily, let n = 5, t1 = 3 minutes, t2 = 4 minutes, t3 = 3 minutes, t4 = 3 minutes, t5 = 4 minutes, T1 = 180 °C, T2 = 200 °C, T3 = 200 °C.

[0187] Specifically, heating steps 1 and 2 can be migrated by time or temperature, and heating steps 3, 4 and 5 can only be migrated by time.

[0188] After cooking is started, the cooking enters heating step 1. The bottom heating component and the air fry heating component start heating simultaneously. When the time reaches 3 minutes or the temperature reaches 180 °C, it enters heating step 2;

[0189] In heating step 2, the bottom heating component stops heating and the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time reaches 4 minutes or the temperature reaches 200 °C, it enters heating step 3;

[0190] In heating step 3, the air fry heating component stops heating and the bottom heating component starts heating. When the temperature reaches 200 °C, the air fry heating component stops heating. When the temperature < 200 °C, the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time of this step reaches 3 minutes, it enters heating step 4;

[0191] In heating step 4, the bottom heating component stops heating and the air fry heating component starts heating. When the temperature reaches 200 °C, the air fry heating component stops heating. When the temperature < 200 °C, the air fry heating component starts heating. When the time of this step reaches 3 minutes, it enters heating step 5;

[0192] In the heating step 5, the bottom heating component and the air fry heating component start heating simultaneously. When the temperature reaches 200 °C, they stop heating simultaneously. When the temperature < 200 °C, they start heating simultaneously. When the time of this step reaches 4 minutes, the cooking ends.

[0193] In the embodiment of the present application, by utilizing the spatial relationship between the bottom heating component (from bottom to top) and the hot air transfer (from top to bottom) during air frying cooking, and by simultaneously or alternately using the bottom heating component for heating and the air fry heating component for heating, the temperature distribution in the cooking device space during air frying cooking is more uniform, which can not only shorten the preheating time, but also make the cooking effect better.

[0194] In some embodiments of the present application, a control device is provided, which is applied to a cooking device. The cooking device includes a cooking cavity, an air fry heating element, and a hot plate heating element. The cooking cavity includes a first region and a second region. The air fry heating element is used to supply heat to the first region, and the hot plate heating element is used to supply heat to the second region.

[0195] Figure 4 The structural block diagram of the control device according to some embodiments of the present application is shown, as Figure 4 shown, the control device 400 includes:

[0196] A control module 402, configured to control at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working in response to a cooking start signal.

[0197] An acquisition module 404, configured to acquire the temperature value and cooking duration in the cooking cavity;

[0198] An adjustment module 406, configured to adjust the heating power of at least one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element according to the temperature value and cooking duration.

[0199] In this embodiment, the cooking device includes a cooking cavity for accommodating the food to be cooked. At least two heating elements are arranged in the cooking cavity, specifically including an air fry heating element and a hot plate heating element. Exemplarily, the air fry heating element can be a heating element for heating means such as air frying. In some embodiments, the air fry heating element is arranged in the upper region of the cooking cavity. The hot plate heating element can be a bottom hot plate heating element. In other embodiments, both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are arranged in the lower region of the cooking cavity. Among them, the air fry heating element includes a heat pipe and a fan, and the fan can guide the heat generated by the heat pipe of the air fry heating element to the upper region of the cooking cavity through air flow.

[0200] Wherein, the cooking cavity specifically includes a first region and a second region. Exemplarily, the first region and the second region respectively correspond to the upper region and the bottom region of the cooking cavity. Exemplarily, the first region is the upper half region of the cooking cavity, and the second region is the lower half region of the cooking cavity.

[0201] The cooking start signal is specifically used to indicate the start of the cooking process of the cooking device. The cooking start signal can be a signal generated when the user presses the button to start cooking, or a signal sent by the user to the cooking device through a terminal device such as a mobile phone or a remote control. The cooking start signal can also be a signal generated by the control circuit of the cooking device itself after the cooking starts.

[0202] After detecting the cooking start signal, the cooking device controls one or both of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating. Exemplarily, the cooking device can first control the air fry heating element to start heating, and then control the hot plate heating element to start heating after the temperature value in the first area reaches the set value. Exemplarily, the cooking device can first control the hot plate heating element to start heating, and then control the air fry heating element to start heating after the temperature value in the second area reaches the set value.

[0203] Exemplarily, the cooking device can control the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating simultaneously, and control one or both of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop heating after the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches the set value.

[0204] After the cooking device starts working, continuously detect the temperature value in the cooking cavity and record the cooking duration. The temperature value in the cooking cavity can be the average of the temperature values in the first area and the second area, or the cooking device can separately detect the temperature values in the first area and the second area.

[0205] The cooking duration can refer to the total duration of the cooking operation of the cooking device, or the stage duration of a certain cooking stage of the cooking device, or the cumulative working duration of the air fry heating element or the hot plate heating element.

[0206] The cooking device adjusts the working modes of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element according to the currently detected temperature value in the cooking cavity and in combination with the recorded cooking duration, specifically including adjusting the heating power of one or both of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element.

[0207] It can be understood that adjusting the heating power of the air fry heating element or the hot plate heating element includes increasing the heating power, decreasing the heating power, and also includes turning on or off the heating element.

[0208] Through the technical solution of the present application, during cooking, according to cooking information such as the temperature value and cooking duration during the cooking process, heating is carried out through the combination of one or both of the air fry heating assembly and the hot plate heating assembly, which can achieve uniform heat supply to different areas in the cooking cavity, make the food in the cooking cavity heat more evenly, and improve the cooking effect.

[0209] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the control module is further configured to, in response to a cooking start signal, control one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0210] In an embodiment of the present application, after detecting a cooking start signal, the cooking device controls one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working. If the user selects the heating mode as air fry, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of air fry, and preferentially increases the temperature of the first area. After the temperature in the first area reaches the standard, the cooking device then controls the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0211] Exemplarily, the air fry heating element is an air fry heating element, and the hot plate heating element is a bottom hot plate heating element. If the user selects the heating mode as the stir-fry mode, the cooking device controls the hot plate heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of the stir-fry mode, and preferentially increases the temperature of the second area. After the temperature in the second area reaches the standard, the cooking device then controls the air fry heating element to start working.

[0212] After receiving a cooking start signal, an embodiment of the present application preferentially starts one heating element corresponding to the cooking mode among multiple heating elements according to the cooking mode corresponding to the cooking start signal. After the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches the standard, another heating element is started to balance the temperature of multiple areas, so as to improve the cooking effect while making the heating uniform.

[0213] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the control module is further configured to, in response to a cooking start signal, control both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0214] In this embodiment, after detecting a cooking start signal, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working simultaneously. If the user selects the heating mode as air fry, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element to start heating according to the cooking start signal of air fry, and controls the hot plate heating element to start heating simultaneously, so as to increase the temperature of the first area and the second area simultaneously, and thus make the temperature in the cooking cavity rise evenly.

[0215] After receiving a cooking start signal, an embodiment of the present application starts multiple heating elements of the cooking device to start working simultaneously, so that the temperatures of multiple areas in the cooking cavity rise simultaneously, the ingredients in the cooking cavity are evenly heated, and the cooking effect is improved.

[0216] In some embodiments of the present application, the control module is further configured to control the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately according to the temperature value and the cooking duration.

[0217] In this embodiment, after the cooking device starts a cooking operation, the cooking device controls one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating, or the cooking device controls both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start heating.

[0218] After at least one heating element starts to work, the cooking device continuously collects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and accumulates the cooking duration. When the temperature value meets the condition, or when the cooking duration reaches the duration for switching the cooking stage, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work alternately.

[0219] Specifically, the alternate operation of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element means that after one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element starts to work and heats to a certain stage, this heating element stops heating and switches to the other heating element among the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working. After heating to a certain stage, the current heating element stops heating again and continues to switch to the other heating element to start heating, and so on in a cycle.

[0220] Exemplarily, after detecting a cooking start signal, the air fry heating element starts to heat. When the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches a certain threshold, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element starts to work. After the hot plate heating element starts to work, if the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches another threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches another threshold, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element continues to work, and so on in a cycle.

[0221] Exemplarily, after detecting a cooking start signal, the hot plate heating element starts to heat. When the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches a certain threshold, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element starts to work. After the air fry heating element starts to work, if the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches another threshold, or when the cooking duration reaches another threshold, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element continues to work, and so on in a cycle.

[0222] In the embodiment of the present application, after the cooking device starts cooking, it controls multiple heating elements of the cooking device to work alternately, so that the temperature in multiple areas of the cooking cavity rises evenly, enabling the ingredients in the cooking cavity to be heated evenly and improving the cooking effect.

[0223] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the control module is further configured to:

[0224] When both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are in a working state and meet at least one of the conditions that the temperature value is greater than or equal to the first temperature threshold and the cooking duration is greater than or equal to the first duration threshold, control the hot plate heating element to stop working;

[0225] When the air fry heating element is in the working state and the temperature value is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, control the air fry heating element to stop working; wherein, the second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold; when both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are in the non-working state and the temperature value is less than the second temperature threshold, control the air fry heating element to start working.

[0226] In this embodiment, by way of example, the air fry heating element is an air fry heating element, and the hot plate heating element is a bottom hot plate heating element. When the cooking device starts to work, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working simultaneously. On the one hand, both heating elements are preheated, and on the other hand, the temperatures of two areas in the cooking cavity rise simultaneously.

[0227] The first temperature threshold can be the temperature threshold when the temperature in the cooking cavity first reaches the standard, or the temperature threshold when the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element are preheated. The first duration threshold is specifically the stage transition duration threshold of the cooking stage in the early stage of cooking, where the two heating elements heat simultaneously.

[0228] After the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element start working simultaneously, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and accumulates the cooking duration.

[0229] If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the first temperature threshold, it is determined that the temperature in the cooking cavity has risen to a suitable temperature at this time, meeting the condition for entering the alternating heating stage of the two heating elements. At this time, control the hot plate heating element to stop heating, and use the air fry heating element to cook the food. After meeting the conditions, control the air fry heating element to stop heating, and control the hot plate heating element to continue heating to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity.

[0230] Similarly, if it is detected that the cooking duration reaches the first duration threshold, it is determined that the current cooking stage ends, and directly jumps to the next cooking stage, that is, the alternating heating stage. At this time, also control the hot plate heating element to stop heating, and use the air fry heating element to cook the food. After meeting the conditions, control the air fry heating element to stop heating, and control the hot plate heating element to continue heating to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity.

[0231] By way of example, the value range of the first duration threshold is from 1 minute to 10 minutes. By way of example, the first duration threshold is 3 minutes. By way of example, the first duration threshold is 5 minutes.

[0232] By way of example, the value range of the first temperature threshold is from 100 °C to 200 °C. By way of example, the first temperature threshold is 120 °C. By way of example, the first temperature threshold is 180 °C.

[0233] By controlling the two heating elements to start heating simultaneously before the alternating heating stage, both heating elements can complete preheating, and the temperature in the cooking cavity can rise rapidly, improving cooking efficiency.

[0234] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the control module is further configured to control one of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element that is in the working state to stop working, and control the other heating element that is in the non-working state to start working when at least one of the temperature value is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold and the cooking duration is greater than or equal to the second duration threshold is satisfied.

[0235] In this embodiment, the second temperature threshold is specifically the upper limit value of the temperature in the cooking cavity, and the second temperature threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the target cooking temperature input by the user. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is equal to the target cooking temperature set by the user.

[0236] The second duration threshold is specifically the maximum duration for which one heating element continuously heats. Exemplarily, the cooking duration includes the duration for which each heating element heats alone, and the cooking device separately compares whether the duration for which each heating element heats alone reaches the second duration threshold.

[0237] Exemplarily, the cooking duration is the total cooking duration of the cooking device. The cooking device separately records the duration of each cooking stage, and subtracts the sum of the cooking durations of all previous cooking stages from the total cooking duration to obtain the working duration of the currently working heating element.

[0238] After starting to alternately heat the food in the cooking cavity by the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and determines whether the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the second temperature threshold.

[0239] If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the second temperature threshold, then control the one heating element that is currently in the working state to stop working, and control the other heating element that is currently in the non-working state to start working, so as to maintain the temperature in the cooking cavity at the second temperature threshold and make the heat in the cooking cavity evenly distributed.

[0240] If it is detected that the working duration of one heating element reaches the second duration threshold, that is, after heating by one heating element for a long enough time, also control the one heating element that is currently in the working state to stop working, and control the other heating element that is currently in the non-working state to start working.

[0241] Exemplarily, the value range of the second temperature threshold is from 120°C to 250°C. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is 160°C. Exemplarily, the second temperature threshold is 200°C.

[0242] Exemplarily, the value range of the second duration threshold is from 2 minutes to 5 minutes. Exemplarily, the second duration threshold is 3 minutes. Exemplarily, the second duration threshold is 4 minutes.

[0243] Exemplarily, when the current air fry heating element is in the working state and it is detected that the temperature in the cooking cavity reaches 200 °C, the air fry heating element stops working and the hot plate heating element starts working. After the working duration of the hot plate heating element reaches 3 minutes, the hot plate heating element stops working and the air fry heating element starts working.

[0244] By controlling the alternating operation of multiple heating elements in the embodiments of the present application, the ingredients in the cooking cavity can be evenly heated, avoiding situations such as too high or excessive local temperature, and improving the cooking effect.

[0245] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the control module is further configured to control both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working; in the case where the temperature value is greater than or equal to the fourth temperature threshold, control both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working; in the case where the temperature value is less than the fourth temperature threshold, control both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to start working.

[0246] In this embodiment, after the stage of alternating operation of the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element is completed, the cooking device controls the two heating elements to work simultaneously again to perform double heating on the ingredients in the cooking cavity.

[0247] Among them, the third temperature threshold is specifically the upper limit value of the temperature in the cooking cavity, and the third temperature threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the target cooking temperature input by the user. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is equal to the target cooking temperature set by the user.

[0248] Exemplarily, the value range of the third temperature threshold is from 120 °C to 250 °C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 160 °C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200 °C.

[0249] During the double heating process, the cooking device continuously detects the temperature value in the cooking cavity and determines whether the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the third temperature threshold. If it is detected that the temperature value in the cooking cavity reaches the third temperature threshold, control both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working simultaneously to prevent the pot from burning due to too high temperature.

[0250] After the temperature value in the cooking cavity drops below the third temperature threshold, the cooking device controls the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to work simultaneously again.

[0251] By controlling two heating elements to heat the food ingredients in the cooking cavity simultaneously during the final stage of cooking, the cooking effect of "finishing with high heat" can be achieved, making the surface of the cooked food golden and crispy and improving the cooking effect.

[0252] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the control device further includes: a generation module, configured to generate a cooking end signal when the cooking duration is greater than or equal to a third duration threshold; an output module, configured to output a corresponding prompt message in response to the cooking end signal.

[0253] In this embodiment, the second duration threshold is a time threshold indicating the end of cooking, and the second duration threshold is associated with the cooking mode set by the user or the cooking duration specified by the user. Exemplarily, if the user sets the cooking mode to: "200°C, 60 minutes", then the third duration threshold is 60 minutes.

[0254] When the cooking duration reaches the second duration threshold, the cooking device determines that cooking is over. At this time, the cooking device generates a corresponding cooking end signal and controls both the air fry heating element and the hot plate heating element to stop working.

[0255] After detecting the cooking technology signal, the cooking device outputs a prompt message, which can be the cooking end information displayed on the display screen set on the cooking device, or the audio information for prompting the end of cooking played through the speaker set on the cooking device, or the prompt message sent by the cooking device to the user terminal through the network.

[0256] By outputting a corresponding prompt message after cooking is over, it can remind the user that the cooking of the cooking device is over. The user can pick up the cooked food in time or set the cooking device to enter the heat preservation mode, improving the convenience of the cooking device.

[0257] In some embodiments of the present application, optionally, the third temperature threshold is greater than or equal to the second temperature threshold, and the second temperature threshold is greater than the first temperature threshold; the third duration threshold is greater than the second duration threshold, and the second duration threshold is greater than the first duration threshold.

[0258] In this embodiment, the third temperature threshold is greater than the second temperature threshold and the first temperature threshold. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200°C, the second temperature threshold is 200°C, and the first temperature threshold is 180°C. Exemplarily, the third temperature threshold is 200°C, the second temperature threshold is 180°C, and the first temperature threshold is 120°C.

[0259] The third duration threshold is greater than the second duration threshold, and the second duration threshold is greater than the first duration threshold. Exemplarily, the third duration threshold is 60 min, the second duration threshold is 5 min, and the first duration threshold is 3 min. Exemplarily, the third duration threshold is 15 min, the second duration threshold is 4 min, and the first duration threshold is 1 min.
