[0070] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein.

Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this application as detailed in the appended claims.

[0071] It should also be noted that the user information (including but not limited to user device information, user personal information, etc.) and data (including but not limited to data used for display, data used for analysis, etc.) involved in this application are all information and data authorized by the user or fully authorized by all parties.

[0072] Please see Figure 1 The diagram illustrates an application environment for a smart stove control method according to an exemplary embodiment. The application environment may include a server 110, a smart stove 120, and a terminal 130.

[0073] Terminal 130 can be a smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop computer, etc., but is not limited to these. It can receive cooking information about the smart stove 120 sent by server 110.

[0074] Server 110 may be a server that provides backend services for smart cooktop 120, which may involve fire control during the cooking process of smart cooktop 120.

[0075] Server 110 can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server that provides basic cloud computing services such as cloud services, cloud databases, cloud computing, cloud functions, cloud storage, network services, cloud communication, middleware services, domain name services, security services, CDN, and big data and artificial intelligence platforms.

[0076] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a smart stove control method according to an exemplary embodiment, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the intelligent stove control method includes the following steps:

[0077] In step S201, object movement information within the cooking space is obtained; the object movement information indicates whether object movement exists within the cooking space.

[0078] Specifically, by installing a human body sensor on the cooktop panel, it can detect whether there is movement of objects in the cooking space, which can be the kitchen, and can detect whether the user leaves the kitchen during the cooking process.

[0079] In step S202, if the object movement information indicates that there is no object movement within the cooking space, the first cooking state information of the stove located within the cooking space is obtained; wherein, the first cooking state information indicates whether the stove is in soup-making mode.

[0080] The system detects the cooking status of the stove by setting up an image acquisition module. When the human body sensor detects that no object has moved in the cooking space for a long time, and the image acquisition module detects that the stove is cooking, the stove can emit a beep or send a message to the object to remind the user that the stove is still cooking. The user can remotely control whether to turn off the stove, and at the same time, they can turn on the image acquisition module to observe the cooking status of the stove in real time and adjust the stove's firepower.

[0081] In step S203, when the current first cooking state information indicates that the stove is in soup-making mode, the water level information in the pot on the stove is detected, wherein the water level information includes the water level height and the water level rise rate.

[0082] The system detects that the stove is in soup-making mode based on the image acquisition module. By installing a water level sensor inside the pot, it detects the real-time water level height inside the pot. The stove stores the correspondence between water level height and water level rise rate. Based on the water level height, the corresponding water level rise rate can be determined, thereby controlling the stove's heat output. This solves the problem of overflowing when users leave the kitchen due to long cooking times, reducing the risk of overflow and improving safety.

[0083] In step S204, the firepower of the stove is controlled based on the water level height and the rate of water level rise.

[0084] The system uses a water level sensor inside the cookware to detect the water level. When a user uses the cookware to cook and sets the soup cooking mode, the water level sensor monitors the water level in real time, records the initial water level, and records the rate of water level rise over a period of time. Based on each different water level and the corresponding rate of water level rise over a period of time, the system determines whether there is a risk of overflowing and thus controls the stove's heat.

[0085] In the above embodiments, when a user is making soup, due to the long cooking time, the stove's heat is controlled by detecting the water level in the pot and the rate of water level rise when the user leaves the kitchen during the cooking process. This prevents the pot from overflowing and avoids safety hazards. It can effectively ensure cooking safety when no one is in the kitchen, without affecting the user's normal cooking, and improve the user's cooking experience.

[0086] In some exemplary implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, the method also includes:

[0087] In step S301, if the object movement information indicates that there is no object movement within the cooking space, the current second cooking state information of the stove located within the cooking space is obtained; wherein, the second cooking state information indicates whether the stove is in pressure cooker steaming mode.

[0088] The system detects the cooking status of the stove by installing an image acquisition module. When the human body sensor detects that no object has moved in the cooking space for a long time, and the image acquisition module detects that the stove is cooking, the stove can emit a beep or send a message to the user to indicate that the stove is still cooking. The user can remotely control the stove to choose whether to turn it off, and can also turn on the image acquisition module to observe the cooking status of the stove in real time and adjust the stove's firepower.

[0089] In step S302, when the current second cooking status information indicates that the stove is in the pressure cooker steaming mode, the sound information of the pressure cooker pressure relief valve is collected, and the duration of the collected sound information is obtained at the same time.

[0090] When the image acquisition module detects that the cooktop is in pressure cooker cooking mode, a sound sensor is installed on the cooktop panel or the pressure cooker. This sound sensor only collects the sound of the pressure cooker's pressure relief valve releasing gas. The sound acquisition mode can be entered through the cooktop control panel, and the sound of the pressure relief valve releasing gas can be collected multiple times to improve the recognition accuracy. When the user wants to cook with the pressure cooker, they can select on the control panel how long after the cooktop detects the sound of the pressure relief valve releasing gas will it automatically shut off the cooktop's heat. Alternatively, they can select a smart recipe stored in the cooktop control panel, determine the corresponding gas release time based on the target recipe, and the cooktop will start timing after detecting the sound of the pressure relief valve releasing gas. When the preset gas release time is reached, the cooktop will automatically turn off the heat.

[0091] In step S303, when the duration exceeds a preset time, the stove's firepower is controlled.

[0092] The cooktop control panel stores a set of intelligent recipe information, including the correspondence between cooking recipes and preset exhaust times. By detecting whether the duration of the exhaust sound from the pressure cooker's pressure relief valve reaches the preset exhaust time, the cooktop's firepower can be controlled. For example, when the duration of the collected sound reaches the preset exhaust time, the cooktop's firepower can be reduced or turned off directly.

[0093] In the above embodiments, when the user is cooking under high pressure, the cooking time is relatively long. When the user leaves the kitchen during the cooking process, the stove firepower is controlled by collecting the duration of the exhaust sound of the pressure cooker's pressure relief valve. This solves the problem that when the user sets a timer to turn off the heat while cooking with a pressure cooker, the food may not be cooked or may be overcooked after the time is up, making the use of the stove more intelligent.

[0094] In some exemplary embodiments, step S203 described above may include:

[0095] Obtain the water level height detected by the water level sensor installed inside the pot on the stove;

[0096] Based on the water level height, determine the corresponding rate of water level rise.

[0097] The control panel of the stove stores the correspondence between water level height and water level rise rate. Based on the water level height, the corresponding water level rise rate is determined to precisely control the firepower of the stove.

[0098] In the above embodiments, by installing a water level sensor inside the pot to detect the water level height inside the pot, and determining the corresponding water level rise rate based on the water level height, the stove firepower is controlled according to the water level height and the water level rise rate to prevent overflow. This solves the problem of overflow when users leave the kitchen while making soup because the cooking time is long.

[0099] In some exemplary implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown, step S203 above may include the following when implemented:

[0100] In step S401, if the water level is lower than the preset height and the water level rise rate is lower than the preset rate, the stove firepower is maintained.

[0101] In step S402, if the water level is less than the preset height and the water level rise rate is greater than or equal to the preset rate, the stove firepower is reduced.

[0102] In step S403, if the water level is greater than or equal to the preset height and the water level rise rate is less than the preset rate, the stove firepower is reduced.

[0103] In step S404, if the water level is greater than or equal to a preset height and the water level rise rate is greater than or equal to a preset rate, the stove firepower is reduced.

[0104] Specifically, by installing a water level sensor in the pot, the water level inside the pot is detected. When the user uses this pot to cook and sets the soup mode, the water level sensor monitors the water level in real time, records the initial water level height, and records the rate of water level rise over a period of time. Based on each different water level height and the corresponding rate of water level rise over a period of time, it is determined whether there is a risk of overflow. Based on whether there is a risk of overflow, the stove firepower is controlled. Furthermore, when the stove has been reduced to the minimum firepower, if the rate of water level rise is still greater than the critical rate, the stove firepower is directly turned off to prevent overflow and improve safety.

[0105] In the above implementation method, the stove firepower is precisely controlled according to the water level height and the rate of water level rise to prevent overflow and avoid safety hazards.

[0106] In some exemplary embodiments, step S302 described above may include:

[0107] Acquire sound information detected by a sound sensor installed on a pressure cooker or stove;

[0108] While collecting sound information, the duration of the collected sound information is also obtained.

[0109] Specifically, the preset exhaust time corresponding to the target cooking recipe is determined from the pre-entered set of intelligent recipe information; wherein, the intelligent recipe information set includes the correspondence between cooking recipes and preset exhaust times; the corresponding exhaust time is determined according to the target recipe, and when the duration of the collected sound information reaches the exhaust time of the corresponding target recipe, the stove firepower can be reduced or the stove firepower can be turned off directly.

[0110] The above implementation solves the problem that when users cook with a pressure cooker, the food may not be cooked or may be overcooked after the timer is set to turn off, thus improving the user's cooking experience.

[0111] In some exemplary implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, after the object movement information represents the absence of object movement within the cooking space, it includes:

[0112] In step S501, the duration of the object's absence is obtained.

[0113] The departure time refers to the duration the object remains outside the cooking space. Human body sensors detect whether the object has left the cooking space. When departure is detected, the moment of departure is recorded, and the accumulated time is used as the starting point for timing. The departure time can be obtained through a timing device, which is activated and begins timing when departure is detected.

[0114] In step S502, it is determined whether the time away exceeds a preset threshold.

[0115] The preset threshold is the maximum duration for which no object can be detected. The preset threshold can be set to 5 minutes, 10 minutes, or 15 minutes; this application does not limit the preset threshold, and those skilled in the art can determine it according to actual needs. The departure time is compared with the preset threshold to determine the relationship between the two. The preset threshold can be segmented, and the segmented preset thresholds are compared with the departure time sequentially.

[0116] In step S503, when the time away exceeds a preset threshold, the stove firepower, water level information and / or sound information are sent to the target.

[0117] Specifically, taking a preset threshold of 15 minutes as an example, the preset threshold can be divided into three segments: 5 minutes each, to determine whether the absence time exceeds 5 minutes, 10 minutes, and 15 minutes respectively. If the preset threshold does not exceed 5 minutes, the stove continues to operate in its current state and sends a reminder message to the user that the stove is cooking. If the preset threshold exceeds 5 minutes, it continues to determine whether the preset threshold exceeds 10 minutes. If the preset threshold does not exceed 10 minutes, the stove continues to operate in its current state and sends stove power, water level information, and / or sound information to the user. If the preset threshold exceeds 10 minutes, it continues to determine whether the preset threshold exceeds 15 minutes. If the preset threshold does not exceed 15 minutes, the stove continues to operate in its current state and reminds the user to remotely control the stove power based on the received stove power, water level information, and / or sound information. If the preset threshold exceeds 15 minutes, the stove power is directly turned off to avoid safety hazards.

[0118] In the above implementation, when the user's absence time exceeds a preset threshold, relevant information is sent. The user controls the working status of the stove according to the received relevant information, so that the user can remotely control the working status of the stove as needed, ensuring the safety of the stove, improving the user experience, and enhancing the intelligence of the stove.
