Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of grilling equipment, and in particular to a grilling equipment and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the acceleration of the pace of life, customers' demand for fast food is increasing day by day, especially during the peak hours of breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea. Commercial sandwich machines play an important role in the catering industry because of their characteristics of high efficiency and fast sandwich making. Especially with the continuous development of the catering market, the demand for commercial sandwich machines will further increase. However, due to the continuous working characteristics of commercial sandwich machines, it is necessary to ensure that the plate temperature is continuously maintained during the working period. This leads to the situation that when the user does not use the commercial sandwich machine for a long time, the commercial sandwich machine is still working continuously, which not only causes the problem of excessive power consumption, but also leads to the continuous working of the heating components, thus affecting the service life of the heating components. For example, a multifunctional cooking machine with the publication number of CN219460944U includes a lower furnace body and an upper furnace body. The lower furnace body is disposed opposite to the upper furnace body, and the upper furnace body is movably connected above the lower furnace body. When the multifunctional cooking machine is in the heating process, the temperature indicator light will emit a bright light to warn the user. It can be seen that this multifunctional cooking machine needs to continuously maintain the plate temperature during the working period and does not consider the situation where the user does not use it for a long time at all. Summary of the Invention

[0009] In some embodiments, a first stop portion is provided on the pivot side of the upper grilling plate, and a second stop portion is provided on the pivot side of the lower grilling plate. The first stop portion is used to abut against the second stop portion when the upper grilling plate is opened relative to the lower grilling plate to a preset angle, so as to limit the opening angle of the upper grilling plate. In this way, the opening angle of the upper grilling plate can be limited by the first stop portion and the second stop portion, avoiding the problem of excessive opening and closing of the upper grilling plate and scalding.

[0010] In some embodiments, the switch component includes a switch body and a switch bracket. A through hole and a first boss arranged around the through hole are formed on the upper side of the switch bracket. The switch body is located within the switch bracket, and the switch body has an elastic portion passing through the through hole. The triggering structure is used to act on the elastic portion movably.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present application are as follows: By providing a triggering structure on the pivoting side of the upper baking plate, as the upper baking plate pivots, the triggering structure can trigger or close the switch component on the lower cover assembly, thereby detecting the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate relative to the lower baking plate through the opening and closing of the switch component, that is, detecting the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate. The control component can realize the specific control of the heating component according to the detection of the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate by the switch component. Especially when the upper baking plate and the lower baking plate are at the first preset temperature and the switch component does not detect the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate within the preset time range, the temperature of the upper baking plate and the lower baking plate can be controlled to decrease from the first preset temperature to the second preset temperature, so that when the grilling device is not used for a long time, the grilling device can enter the low-temperature heat preservation state, which can not only reduce power consumption and save energy, but also avoid the heating component working at a high temperature continuously, and can achieve the purpose of extending the service life of the heating component. Especially for a grilling device that needs to work continuously, the energy consumption can be reduced in time when it does not work for a long time. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

Detailed implementation manners

[0040] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0041] The embodiment of the present application provides a grilling device 100. As Figures 1 to 8As shown, the grilling device 100 includes a lower grilling component 1, an upper grilling component 3, a heating component 4, and a control component 5. The lower grilling component 1 includes a lower cover component 11 and a lower grill plate 12 provided on the lower cover component 11, and a switch component 2 is provided on the lower cover component 11. The upper grilling component 3 includes an upper grill plate 31 and an upper cover component 32 provided on the upper grill plate 31. The upper grill plate 31 is pivotally connected to the lower grill plate 12 to open or close the lower grill plate 12. A triggering structure 33 is provided on the pivotal connection side of the upper grill plate 31. The switch component 2 is arranged corresponding to the triggering structure 33. The triggering structure 33 is used to trigger or close the switch component 2 as the upper grill plate 31 pivots, so as to detect the opening and closing action of the upper grill plate 31 relative to the lower grill plate 12 via the switch component 2. The heating component 4 is arranged corresponding to the upper grill plate 31 and the lower grill plate 12. The control component 5 is electrically connected to the switch component 2 and the heating component 4. The control component 5 is configured to: when controlling the upper grill plate 31 and the lower grill plate 12 to be at a first preset temperature and the switch component 2 does not detect the opening and closing action of the upper grill plate 31 within a preset time range, send a first control instruction to the heating component 4 to make the upper grill plate 31 and the lower grill plate 12 be at a second preset temperature; wherein, the first preset temperature is greater than the second preset temperature.

[0042] A handle 35 may be provided on the upper cover component 32 described above. By operating the handle 35, the user can open and close the upper grill plate 31 relative to the lower grill plate 12.

[0043] As Figure 1 shown, the lower cover component 11 may include a first cover body 14 and a second cover body 15 connected to each other. The first cover body 14 is located below the second cover body 15, and the lower grill plate 12 may be installed on the second cover body 15. The first cover body 14 may form a receiving cavity with a relatively large size, and the control component 5 may be arranged in this receiving cavity. Other electronic components of the grilling device 100 may also be arranged in this receiving cavity, such as the prompting module 6 described below.

[0044] A plurality of lower grill plates 12 may be provided on the lower cover component 11 described above, and the upper cover component 32 is arranged corresponding to each lower grill plate 12 one by one. Exemplarily, as Figure 1 shown, there is shown one lower cover component 11 in the figure. Two lower grill plates 12 and two upper cover components 32 are arranged in parallel on the lower cover component 11 to meet the user's greater demand for the grilling amount, and more foods can be grilled simultaneously, such as grilling multiple sandwiches at the same time.

[0045] The heating component 4 described above may include a first heating element and a second heating element. The first heating element can provide heat for the upper grill plate 31, and the second heating element can provide heat for the lower grill plate 12, so as to grill foods in cooperation with the upper grill plate 31 and the lower grill plate 12. The control component 5 can specifically control the working of the heating component 4 to realize the control of the temperatures of the upper grill plate 31 and the lower grill plate 12.

[0046] Temperature sensors may be respectively provided on the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 described above. The two temperature sensors are respectively electrically connected to the control component 5. In this way, the control component 5 can receive in real time the temperatures of the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 feedback by the temperature sensors, so as to achieve precise control of the temperatures of the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 based on the temperature information respectively feedback by the two temperature sensors.

[0047] At least a part of the pivoting side of the upper baking plate 31 described above protrudes outward to form a triggering structure 33. For example, the triggering structure 33 is a cam structure on the upper baking plate 31.

[0048] Such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 as shown Figure 6 The upper cover assembly 32 shown in is covered on the lower baking plate 12. At this time, the triggering structure 33 is located at a position away from the switch assembly 2, and the switch assembly 2 is not triggered by the triggering structure 33, that is, the switch assembly 2 is closed and in an off state; Figure 7 The upper cover assembly 32 shown in opens the lower baking plate 12. At this time, the triggering structure 33 is located at a position close to the switch assembly 2, and the switch assembly 2 is triggered by the triggering structure 33, that is, the switch assembly 2 is triggered and in a conducting state.

[0049] The above-mentioned triggering structure 33 can trigger the switch assembly 2 after the upper baking plate 31 pivots a preset opening and closing angle. For example, the preset opening and closing angle is 80 degrees. When the pivoting angle of the upper baking plate 31 exceeds 80 degrees, the triggering structure 33 can trigger the switch assembly 2 to ensure accurate identification of the opening of the upper baking plate 31.

[0050] The above-mentioned grilling device 100 may have multiple preset gears, and different gears correspond to different grilling temperatures. After the user selects a gear, the control component 5 controls the heating component 4 to heat the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 to the temperature corresponding to this gear to meet the user's requirements for the grilling temperature.

[0051] The above-mentioned first preset temperature can be understood as the temperature at which the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 perform grilling at the gear selected by the user, such as 220 °C, 210 °C, 200 °C, etc. After the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 reach the first preset temperature, the heating component 4 will stop heating and keep the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 at this first preset temperature.

[0052] The above preset time range can be understood as the time after the heating component 4 stops heating and starts timing after the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 are maintained at the first preset temperature, such as 2 hours, 1.5 hours, 1 hour, etc. Exemplarily, when the switch component 2 does not detect the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within 2 hours after the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 are maintained at the first preset temperature, the control component 5 will send a first control instruction to the heating component 4 to make the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 be at the second preset temperature, so that when the grilling device 100 is not used for a long time, the grilling device 100 can enter the low-temperature heat preservation state.

[0053] It should be noted that the control component 5 can be built with electronic components such as timers, comparators, registers, digital logic circuits, etc., or implemented with processor chips such as single-chip microcontrollers, microprocessors, programmable logic controllers (PLCs), digital signal processors (DSPs), field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), programmable logic arrays (PLAs), application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs) and their peripheral circuits.

[0054] In this application, a trigger structure 33 is provided on the pivoting side of the upper baking plate 31. As the upper baking plate 31 pivots, the trigger structure 33 can trigger or close the switch component 2 on the lower cover assembly 11. Thus, the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 relative to the lower baking plate 12 can be detected through the opening and closing of the switch component 2, that is, the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 is detected. The control component 5 can control the heating component 4 according to the detection of the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 by the switch component 2. Especially when the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 are at the first preset temperature and the switch component 2 does not detect the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, the temperature of the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 can be controlled to decrease from the first preset temperature to the second preset temperature, so that when the grilling device 100 is not used for a long time, the grilling device 100 can enter the low-temperature heat preservation state, which can not only reduce power consumption and save energy, but also avoid the heating component 4 continuously working at a high temperature state, and can achieve the purpose of prolonging the service life of the heating component 4. Especially for the grilling device 100 that needs to work continuously, the energy consumption can be reduced in time when it does not work for a long time.

[0055] In some embodiments, the control component 5 is further configured to: when controlling the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 to be at the first preset temperature and the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, send a second control instruction to the heating component 4 to keep the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 at the first preset temperature.

[0056] In this way, after detecting the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31, that is, when it is determined that the user needs to use the grilling device 100, the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 can be controlled to maintain at the first preset temperature, so that the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 are at a temperature capable of grilling food, ensuring the convenience of user use.

[0057] In some embodiments, the control component 5 is further configured to: after sending the first control instruction to the heating component 4, determine whether the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31; if so, send a third control instruction to the heating component 4 to make the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 at the first preset temperature.

[0058] In this way, after the grilling device 100 enters the low-temperature heat preservation state, it can continue to determine whether the user needs to use the grilling device 100 based on the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31. If the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31, it indicates that the user needs to use the grilling device 100. At this time, the control component 5 can heat the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 to the first preset temperature to meet the user's usage requirements. The above control of the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 by the control component 5 can further increase the convenience of user use.

[0059] It can be understood that after the control component 5 sends the first control instruction to the heating component 4, the detection of the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 by the switch component 2 is continuous, so as to control the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 to heat up in time when the user operates the upper baking plate 31.

[0060] After the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31, timing can be started when the upper baking plate 31 has an opening and closing action, so as to determine again whether the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, so as to make the next round of judgment.

[0061] In some embodiments, the grilling device 100 further includes a timing module electrically connected to the control component 5. The control component 5 is further configured to: after the grilling device 100 is powered on and started, and the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 are at the first preset temperature, control the timing module to start timing, and determine whether the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range after the timing starts; and / or, after detecting the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31, control the timing module to start timing, and determine whether the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range after the timing starts.

[0062] In this way, the timing module can start timing in a timely manner when the grilling device 100 is first powered on and started, and the upper grilling plate 31 and the lower grilling plate 12 reach the first preset temperature. The timing module can also start timing in a timely manner after detecting the opening and closing action of the upper grilling plate 31, so as to achieve precise control of the heating component 4.

[0063] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 8 shown, the grilling device 100 further includes a prompt module 6, a gear button module 7, and a countdown module 8 that are electrically connected to the control component 5. The control component 5 is further configured to: after receiving a trigger operation that triggers the gear button module 7, control the countdown module 8 to start counting down; after the countdown module 8 finishes counting down, determine whether the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper grilling plate 31; if not, control the prompt module 6 to turn on to continuously send out prompt information until the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper grilling plate 31.

[0064] In this way, after the user triggers the gear button module 7, the countdown can start in a timely manner. The countdown time is the grilling time. When the countdown ends, it indicates that the food grilling is completed. At this time, if the switch component 2 does not detect the opening and closing action of the upper grilling plate 31, that is, the user does not open the lid to take away the food, the user needs to be prompted to take away the food in a timely manner to avoid the problem of over-grilling and ensure the taste of the grilled food.

[0065] The above-mentioned prompt module 6 can be prompted by sound and / or display, such as beeping for prompting and / or flashing lamp beads for prompting.

[0066] After the countdown module 8 finishes counting down, if the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper grilling plate 31, control the prompt module 6 to stop sending out prompt information.

[0067] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a first stop portion 34 is provided on the pivoting side of the upper grilling plate 31, and a second stop portion 13 is provided on the pivoting side of the lower grilling plate 12. The first stop portion 34 is used to abut against the second stop portion 13 when the upper grilling plate 31 is opened relative to the lower grilling plate 12 to a preset angle, so as to limit the opening angle of the upper grilling plate 31.

[0068] In this way, the opening angle of the upper grilling plate 31 can be limited by the first stop portion 34 and the second stop portion 13, avoiding the problem of excessive opening and closing of the upper grilling plate 31 and scalding.

[0069] The number of the above-mentioned first stop portions 34 can be multiple, and the first stop portions 34 and the second stop portions 13 are arranged in one-to-one correspondence to ensure the stop effect.

[0070] In some embodiments, as Figures 2 to 7As shown in the figure, the switch assembly 2 includes a switch body 21 and a switch bracket 22. A through hole 23 and a first boss 24 disposed around the through hole 23 are formed on the upper side of the switch bracket 22. The switch body 21 is located within the switch bracket 22, and the switch body 21 has an elastic portion 25 passing through the through hole 23. The trigger structure 33 is configured to act on the elastic portion 25 movably.

[0071] In this way, the first boss 24 disposed around the through hole 23 can prevent the debris falling during the process of grilling food from falling into the switch bracket 22 through the through hole 23, achieving the protection of the switch body 21.

[0072] A second boss 16 is formed by a partial protrusion on the upper side of the lower cover assembly 11 described above. The second boss 16 is disposed corresponding to the switch bracket 22 to support the switch assembly 2.

[0073] The control solution of the grilling device 100 will be specifically described below:

[0074] ① When the upper cover assembly 32 is closed (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the off state), and the opening of the upper cover assembly 32 is not detected within a preset time range (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the on state), the control component 5 will control the heating component 4 to stop heating. When the temperature drops to the second preset temperature and enters the low-temperature heat preservation state, the current temperature is maintained; when the opening of the upper cover assembly 32 is detected (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the on state), the control component 5 will control the heating component 4 to continue heating. After reaching the first preset temperature of the corresponding gear, the heating is stopped and the current gear temperature is maintained. At the same time, timing starts, that is, timing starts after reaching the first preset temperature, to determine again whether the switch assembly 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, so as to make the next round of judgment.

[0075] ② When the upper cover assembly 32 is closed (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the off state), and the opening of the upper cover assembly 32 is detected within a preset time range (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the on state), the current gear temperature is continuously maintained, that is, maintained at the first preset temperature. At the same time, timing starts from the opening of the upper cover assembly 32 to determine again whether the switch assembly 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, so as to make the next round of judgment.

[0076] ③When the upper cover assembly 32 is opened (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the conducting state), if the closing of the upper cover assembly 32 is not detected within a preset time range (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the off state), the control assembly 5 will control the heating assembly 4 to stop heating. When the temperature drops to the second preset temperature, it will enter the low-temperature heat preservation state and maintain the current temperature. When the closing of the upper cover assembly 32 is detected (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the off state), the control assembly 5 will control the heating assembly 4 to continue heating. After reaching the first preset temperature of the corresponding gear, it will stop heating and maintain the current gear temperature, and at the same time start timing to determine again whether the switch assembly 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, so as to make the next round of judgment.

[0077] ④When the upper cover assembly 32 is opened (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the conducting state), if the closing of the upper cover assembly 32 is detected within a preset time range (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the off state), continue to maintain the current gear temperature, that is, maintain at the first preset temperature, and at the same time start timing from the closing of the upper cover assembly 32 (at this time, the switch assembly 2 is in the off state) to determine again whether the switch assembly 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, so as to make the next round of judgment.

[0078] The embodiment of the present application also provides a control method for a grilling device, which is applied to the above-mentioned grilling device 100. As Figure 9 shown, the control method includes steps S101 to S105.

[0079] Step S101: Obtain the triggering operation of the user;

[0080] Step S102: Based on the triggering operation, control the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 to be at the first preset temperature;

[0081] Step S103: Judge whether the switch assembly 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within a preset time range;

[0082] Step S104: If so, send a second control instruction to the heating assembly 4 to keep the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 at the first preset temperature;

[0083] Step S105: If not, send a first control instruction to the heating assembly 4 to make the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 at the second preset temperature; wherein, the first preset temperature is greater than the second preset temperature.

[0084] In this application, a trigger structure 33 is provided on the pivoting side of the upper baking plate 31. As the upper baking plate 31 pivots, the trigger structure 33 can trigger or close the switch component 2 on the trigger lower cover assembly 11. Thus, the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 relative to the lower baking plate 12 can be detected through the opening and closing of the switch component 2, that is, the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 is detected. The control component 5 can control the heating component 4 according to the detection of the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 by the switch component 2. Especially when the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 are at the first preset temperature and the switch component 2 does not detect the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31 within the preset time range, the temperature of the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 can be controlled to decrease from the first preset temperature to the second preset temperature, enabling the grilling device 100 to enter the low-temperature heat preservation state when not in use for a long time. This can not only reduce power consumption and save energy, but also prevent the heating component 4 from continuously working at a high temperature, achieving the purpose of extending the life of the heating component 4. Especially for the grilling device 100 that needs to work continuously, the energy consumption can be reduced in a timely manner when not working for a long time.

[0085] In some embodiments, as Figure 10 shown, the control method further includes step S201 to step S203.

[0086] Step S201: After sending the first control instruction to the heating component 4, determine again whether the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31;

[0087] Step S202: If so, send the third control instruction to the heating component 4 to make the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 at the first preset temperature;

[0088] Step S203: If not, send the fourth control instruction to the heating component 4 to keep the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 at the second preset temperature.

[0089] In this way, after detecting the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31, that is, when it is determined that the user needs to use the grilling device 100, the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 can be controlled to maintain at the first preset temperature, so that the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 are at a temperature suitable for grilling food, ensuring the convenience of user use. After the grilling device 100 enters the low-temperature heat preservation state, it can continue to determine whether the user needs to use the grilling device 100 based on the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31. If the switch component 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper baking plate 31, it indicates that the user needs to use the grilling device 100. At this time, the control component 5 can heat the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 to the first preset temperature to meet the user's use requirements. The above control of the upper baking plate 31 and the lower baking plate 12 by the control component 5 can further increase the convenience of user use.

[0090] In some embodiments, such as Figure 11 shown, after obtaining the trigger operation of the user in step S101, the control method further includes steps S301 to S303.

[0091] Step S301: Control the countdown module 8 of the grilling device 100 to start counting down;

[0092] Step S302: After the countdown of the countdown module 8 ends, determine whether the switch assembly 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper griddle 31;

[0093] Step S303: If not, continuously send out a reminder message until the switch assembly 2 detects the opening and closing action of the upper griddle 31.

[0094] In this way, after the user triggers the gear key module 7, the countdown can be started in time. The countdown time is the grilling time. When the countdown ends, it indicates that the food grilling is completed. At this time, if the switch assembly 2 does not detect the opening and closing action of the upper griddle 31, that is, the user does not open the lid to take away the food, it is necessary to prompt the user to take away the food in time to avoid the problem of over-grilling and ensure the taste of the grilled food.

[0095] The above control method further includes step S304. Step S304: Stop sending out the reminder message.

[0096] The above embodiments are only exemplary embodiments of the present application and are not used to limit the present application. Those skilled in the art can make various modifications or equivalent replacements within the essence and protection scope of the present application, and such modifications or equivalent replacements should also be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present application.
