Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of kitchen appliance technology, specifically providing a control method for cooking equipment, a computer-readable storage medium, and a computer device. Background Technology

[0002] To meet user needs, cooking appliances with steaming functions, such as steam ovens and steam ovens, have emerged on the market that require minimal user intervention during the cooking process. Taking a steam oven as an example, the cooking principle of the steaming function is roughly as follows: by providing high-temperature steam to the cooking space (such as the inner liner of the steam oven) where the food to be cooked is located, the amount, temperature, timing / duration of the steam are controlled, and the food can be cooked by steaming.

[0003] Taking a steam oven as an example, traditional steam ovens typically rely on a water tank as the water source for generating steam. However, the amount of water stored in the water tank is not closely related to the amount of water needed for cooking. Specifically, the water tank has a fixed volume and is usually replenished manually (e.g., manually filled). The amount of water needed varies depending on the cooking task (e.g., the type and weight of the ingredients, different cooking modes, etc.). Therefore, the amount of water stored in the water tank often does not match the required amount for cooking. If the stored water is too large (exceeding the required amount), and the water is not drained after cooking, bacteria and impurities can easily grow, affecting the quality of the water used to generate the cooking medium (steam), thus impacting the cooking quality to some extent. Furthermore, if the stored water is too large (exceeding the required amount), the need to replenish water during cooking disrupts the continuity of the cooking process, thus affecting the cooking quality and / or the cooking experience. This can even lead to the interruption of the cooking process, especially when the user is not nearby.

[0004] As an improvement, cooking appliances with integrated water supply and drainage functions have emerged on the market. These appliances can connect to external water supply lines / devices (such as water purifiers), allowing water to be supplied to the appliance whenever cooking is required. Compared to manually adding water to the clean water tank, this method allows for adjusting the amount of water supplied to the appliance in a way that is relevant to the current cooking activity (e.g., the water can still be stored in the clean water tank, or a water storage structure can be added directly without omitting the clean water tank), making it suitable for the specific cooking needs. However, there is still room for improvement in how to better adapt the water supply and drainage logic to the specific cooking activity. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application aims to solve, at least to some extent, the aforementioned technical problems and / or at least a portion of them. Specifically, it addresses how to optimize the water supply and drainage logic of a cooking device so that the logic can be better adapted to the specific cooking process.

[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides a control method for a cooking device, the control method comprising: acquiring a current cooking task; during the current cooking task, determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking device based at least on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking device; wherein the steam generator comprises one or more, and in the case of multiple steam generators, the operating time is the cumulative operating time of the multiple steam generators.

[0007] With this configuration, it is possible to determine the water inlet parameters for the cooking equipment based on the actual operating time of the steam generator for this cooking task.

[0008] It is understood that those skilled in the art can determine the number, type, location on the cooking equipment, and function of the steam generating devices during the cooking task based on actual needs. For example, steam generating devices may include, but are not limited to, steam generators and steam pans, and may be located on, but are not limited to, the top, side, back, or separately external to the cooking equipment. Multiple steam generating devices may be included, and for the specific cooking task, their functions may be parallel (e.g., always synchronized) or have a clear division of labor (e.g., one steam generating device serves as a supplementary steam device only at a certain stage or for a certain situation).

[0009] Furthermore, it is understood that those skilled in the art can determine the type of steam parameters and their mapping relationship with operating time according to actual needs. For example, operating parameters may include, but are not limited to, starting / stopping water intake, continuous / intermittent water intake, water intake flow rate, water intake time / timing, etc.

[0010] In addition, it is understandable that the inlet water parameters can be determined directly by the operating time of the evaporative steam generator, or other reference factors can be introduced, such as, but not limited to, the ingredients (type, quantity, etc.) / cooking mode of this cooking task, other operating parameters of the steam generator (such as steam volume, steam temperature, etc.), and the user's preferences for this cooking task.

[0011] In one possible implementation of the control method for the above-mentioned cooking equipment, the phrase "determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment based at least on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking equipment during the current cooking task" includes: determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment based at least on the operating time of the steam generator being able to generate steam of a preset quality during the current cooking task.

[0012] This configuration allows for a better determination of the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment by measuring the steam's operating time. Preset parameters may include, but are not limited to, steam temperature and the amount of steam generated / released. Taking multiple steam generators as an example, when determining the operating time, the steam quality corresponding to different steam generators can be the same or different. For instance, steam quality is defined as steam temperature, which varies depending on the steam generator. In this case, the operating time can be directly accumulated, or it can be accumulated after certain conversions.

[0013] In one possible implementation of the control method for the above-mentioned cooking equipment, the phrase "determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment based at least on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking equipment during the current cooking task" includes: determining the water inlet duration of the cooking equipment based at least on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking equipment during the current cooking task.

[0014] With this configuration, it is possible to determine the appropriate water intake time as the cooking process progresses, and to more precisely adapt to the needs of the cooking task.

[0015] It is understood that those skilled in the art can determine the duration of water intake and the number of water intake operations involved in the cooking task based on actual needs. For example, if the steam generator of the cooking equipment operates for t1 hours, the water intake duration is t11. If the steam generator operates for t2 hours, the water intake duration is t21. In this way, the needs of the cooking task can be met by multiple water intake operations. Of course, the needs of the cooking task can also be met by one or more water intake operations. Taking multiple water intake operations as an example, those skilled in the art can determine the timing of each water intake operation (determination of operating time), the duration of each water intake, etc., based on actual needs. For different water intake operations, other parameters such as flow rate can be the same or different.

[0016] In one possible implementation of the control method for the above-mentioned cooking equipment, the phrase "determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment based at least on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking equipment during the current cooking task" includes: determining current cooking reference information related to the current cooking task; and determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment based on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking equipment and the current cooking reference information during the current cooking task.

[0017] This configuration allows for the inlet water parameters to be better adapted to the needs of the cooking task by incorporating customized information relevant to the specific cooking task. Such information may include, but is not limited to, the type / freshness / weight / quantity of ingredients, user preferences, and the optimal time for consumption. For example, if the weight of the ingredients exceeds a preset weight, the inlet water flow rate and / or inlet duration can be appropriately increased each time.

[0018] In one possible implementation of the control method for the aforementioned cooking equipment, the current cooking reference information includes customized information. Accordingly, "determining the current cooking reference information related to the current cooking task" includes: determining the customized information based on environmental data or meteorological data; and / or determining the customized information based on historical cooking data; and / or initiating an inquiry; and determining the current cooking reference information related to the current cooking task based on the feedback information of the inquiry.

[0019] Customized information may have a pre-defined mapping relationship with factors such as, but not limited to, the time / season of the cooking session, and different users. For example, to meet the different taste preferences of user A and user B, the soaking time needs to be set differently during a specific soaking period. As another example, for the same food, the recommended level of tenderness may differ depending on whether it is eaten at noon or in the evening; this also requires different soaking time settings during a specific soaking period.

[0020] In one possible implementation of the control method for the above-mentioned cooking equipment, the phrase "determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment at least based on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking equipment during the current cooking task" includes: determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment at least based on the operating time of the steam generator of the cooking equipment during the current cooking task; and adjusting the water inlet parameters according to the current cooking process of the current cooking task.

[0021] This configuration allows for a better adaptation of the determined water intake parameters to the needs of the current cooking task, taking into account the current cooking process. For example, if it is determined that water needs to be added, and assuming that the current cooking process substantially determines the doneness of the ingredients, the water intake can be appropriately delayed to ensure that the cooking quality is not affected by the water.

[0022] In one possible implementation of the control method for the aforementioned cooking equipment, the control method includes, simultaneously with or after determining the water inlet parameters of the cooking equipment based on the liquid level in the water storage container of the cooking equipment, at least according to the operating time of the steam generator during the current cooking task. This configuration aims to ensure the operational reliability of the cooking equipment. If, even when the water level has reached a set high level, water still needs to be added according to a preset logic, water inlet can be stopped or the drain valve can be opened. Conversely, if water inlet is completed according to the preset logic but the water level has not reached a set low level, water inlet can continue.

[0023] In one possible implementation of the control method for the cooking equipment described above, the control method further includes: rinsing the cooking equipment by introducing water before the current cooking task is performed.

[0024] This design ensures the cleanliness of the cooking medium by rinsing water containers and related pipes.

[0025] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can determine flushing parameters such as water volume, water inlet method, and flushing method based on actual needs. Furthermore, after flushing, the water needs to be drained. Before flushing, it is first determined whether there is water in the storage container, and a corresponding flushing mechanism is developed based on the determination result. For example, if there is water, water can be added directly based on the difference between the flushing water volume and the stored water volume, or the stored water can be drained first and then added.

[0026] In one possible implementation of the control method for the above-mentioned cooking equipment, when the current cooking task is a scheduled cooking task, the control method includes: determining the water inlet parameters for the first water inlet based on the scheduled cooking task.

[0027] This configuration ensures the quality of cooking for the preset cooking task. For example, the first water intake is performed at a point between 0.5 and 2 hours before the scheduled start time. Based on this first water intake, rinsing can begin either at the scheduled start time or immediately after the first water intake is complete.

[0028] In one possible implementation of the control method for the aforementioned cooking equipment, the control method further includes: recording water inlet data related to the current cooking task when the current cooking task has been completed.

[0029] This configuration allows for the optimization of water inlet parameters for the next cooking task, subsequent cooking tasks, or cooking tasks of other devices, based on the water inlet data from the current cooking task. Water inlet data can include the aforementioned water inlet parameters, the water volume for the current cooking task, and water replenishment / drainage parameters after water inlet is completed according to preset logic.

[0030] In a second aspect, this application also provides a computer-readable storage medium including a memory adapted to store a plurality of program codes adapted to be loaded and executed by a processor to perform the aforementioned control method of the cooking apparatus.

[0031] It is understood that the computer-readable storage medium has all the technical effects of the aforementioned control method for the cooking equipment, which will not be elaborated here.

[0032] Those skilled in the art will understand that all or part of the processes in the methods of the above embodiments can be implemented by a computer program instructing related hardware.

[0038] The present application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with the cooking equipment, namely a steam oven, a steam generating device including a steam generator disposed on the top of the steam oven, and a water storage container disposed on the top of the steam oven. In the drawings:

[0039] Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a control method for a cooking apparatus according to an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0040] Preferred embodiments of this application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. For example, although this embodiment is described in conjunction with a steam oven as the cooking equipment, a steam generator including one unit, and a water storage container disposed on the top of the steam oven, this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Without departing from the principles of this application, those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust the type and specific structure of the cooking equipment. For example, the cooking equipment can also be a steam oven, a dual-cavity steam oven, etc., and the steam generator can include multiple units. The water storage container can be disposed on the side, back, or other locations of the steam oven.

[0041] It should be noted that in the description of this application, terms such as "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. These are used merely for ease of description and do not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation; therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0042] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "setup," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or a connection within two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0043] Furthermore, to better illustrate this application, numerous specific details are provided in the following detailed embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that this application can still be implemented without certain specific details. In some instances, the structure / principle of steam boxes and steam generating devices, the principle of steaming function, etc., which are well known to those skilled in the art, are not described in detail in order to highlight the main points of this application.

[0044] In one possible implementation, the steam oven includes a cooking body, which includes a cabinet and an inner liner disposed within the cabinet, forming a cooking chamber. The cooking body has a door assembly on the side facing the operator (such as the front side) that can open / close the cooking chamber, such as the door assembly being disposed in the cooking body in a push-pull or flip-up manner.

[0045] In this example, a steam generator and a water storage container are installed at the top of the inner liner (within the chamber). The water storage container is connected to an external water source, such as a water pipe or water purifier, allowing for water replenishment as needed. The container may also be connected to a sewer to drain water promptly (e.g., after rinsing). The external water source supplies water to the water storage container, which then supplies water to the steam generator as needed. The steam generator produces steam, which serves as the cooking medium. By releasing the steam into the cooking chamber, food placed inside can be cooked by steaming. The steam oven may also be equipped with or configured with inlet / outlet pipes, valves, pumps, etc., to facilitate appropriate inlet / outlet operations as required.

[0046] In this example, the water storage container is equipped with a high-level sensor and a low-level sensor. When the water level in the container reaches the position detected by the high-level sensor, water is not allowed to enter, or some water can be drained by opening the drain valve. When the water level in the container drops to the position detected by the low-level sensor, water needs to be added to the container to ensure the reliable operation of the steam generator. For example, the level sensors are separate photoelectric level sensors. The high-level sensor is located 10 mm from the inner top of the container, and the low-level sensor is located 15 mm from the inner bottom of the container.

[0047] Based on the above structure, this application provides a control method for a cooking device, mainly used to meet the cooking needs of a steam oven by automatically supplying water. The control method mainly includes the following steps:

[0048] S100, Obtain this cooking task.

[0049] For example, the cooking task can be manually selected by the user or automatically determined by the cooking equipment based on detection, such as the type and weight of the ingredients. Alternatively, it can be determined after initial selection by the user and adjustments based on the detection results. In the case of a determined cooking task, a cooking mode can be defined. The cooking mode may include multiple cooking stages, each of which may include parameters such as steam temperature, flow rate, and duration.

[0050] S200. Before this cooking task, fill the water reservoir with water to rinse the cooking equipment.

[0051] Before starting a cooking task, the cooking equipment needs to be rinsed to ensure the quality of the water used to generate steam. Therefore, a complete cooking cycle includes the cooking stage corresponding to the current cooking task and the rinsing stage preceding the cooking stage.

[0052] As a simple example, the operating parameters of the steam oven during the rinsing phase are relatively fixed, such as rinsing water volume, rinsing inlet water parameters, rinsing outlet parameters, rinsing duration, etc.

[0053] In this example, after rinsing, a preset amount of water is added to the water storage container to ensure the cooking task can start smoothly. Clearly, the specific quantification of the preset amount and the water inlet parameters (such as flow rate and inlet time) can be flexibly selected according to actual needs. For example, the preset amount is approximately 1 / 3 to 1 / 2 of the maximum volume of the water storage container.

[0054] S300. During this cooking task, the water inlet parameters for replenishing water to the water storage container shall be determined at least based on the operating time of the steam generator.

[0055] In this example, the water inlet parameters for replenishing the water storage container are determined by the operating time of the steam generator, which is capable of producing steam of a preset quality. For instance, the water inlet parameters for replenishing the water storage container are determined based on the operating time of the steam generator, which is capable of producing steam at ≥100°C. If the steam temperature includes multiple values, the water inlet parameters for replenishing the water storage container can be determined based on the duration of different temperatures, using a conversion method such as adding a coefficient.

[0056] The water inlet parameters for replenishing the water storage container may include, but are not limited to, the start time, flow rate, and duration of water replenishment. In this example, the cooking task is completed by replenishing water multiple times. For example, one water replenishment is carried out by replenishing water to the storage container at a preset flow rate for 3-5 seconds.

[0057] In one possible implementation, the cooking task includes a first sub-cooking stage, a second sub-cooking stage, and a third sub-cooking stage. The last 5 minutes of the first sub-cooking stage and the 3-5 minutes after the start of the second stage have a substantial impact on the cooking quality of the ingredients. Therefore, when it is determined that water needs to be added to the storage container during these two periods, the optimal approach to ensure the cooking quality is to delay the water addition. If the current water volume is insufficient to support the passage of the corresponding periods, the preset water addition parameters can be adjusted. For example, this could involve: accelerating the water addition; adding a portion of the water first, with the remainder added after the interval; or strengthening the previous judgment logic for the intervals, such as appropriately shortening the running time to add water before reaching the interval; etc.

[0058] S400: During the process of replenishing water to the water storage vessel, the inlet parameters are selectively adjusted according to the liquid level in the water storage vessel.

[0059] If the liquid level reaches a high point, water intake can be stopped or even partially drained; if the liquid level reaches a low point, a certain amount of water can be pre-filled. Clearly, such operations will affect the water supply and drainage logic of the current cooking task to some extent. For example, if the liquid level reaches a high point, the amount of water added can be increased appropriately in the later stages of the cooking task to ensure the total water volume. If the liquid level reaches a low point, the amount of water added can be reduced appropriately in the later stages of the cooking task to ensure the total water volume. After the cooking task is completed, the water intake data can be recorded, and the water supply and drainage logic can be optimized based on this data.

[0060] Obviously, in the aforementioned rinsing stage and other stages where water replenishment is not required, the above-mentioned remedial water inlet and outlet logic can also be activated based on the real-time detection of the water level in the storage container to ensure the reliability of the cooking equipment.

[0061] As can be seen, in the preferred embodiment of this application, for the current cooking task, the water inlet parameters for replenishing water to the water storage container are determined based on the (cumulative) operating time of the steam generator. This allows the water in the storage container to be adapted to the water demand of the current cooking task through one or more combinations of water inlets. Based on the recorded water inlet data for each cooking task, the water supply and drainage logic can be improved through analysis, thereby optimizing the adaptation of the water supply and drainage logic to the cooking task.

[0062] It should be noted that although the steps in the above embodiments are described in a specific order, those skilled in the art will understand that, in order to achieve the effect of this application, different steps do not necessarily have to be executed in such an order. They can be executed simultaneously or in other orders, and some steps can be added, replaced, or omitted. For example, based on the preliminary determination of the water inlet parameters for replenishing water to the water storage vessel according to the operating time of the steam generator, the water inlet parameters can be adjusted according to the freshness / weight of the ingredients for this cooking task. For example, for a certain ingredient, if it is relatively fresh, the amount of water used in a certain stage should be appropriately increased in order to ensure the cooking quality.

[0063] It should be noted that although the control method of the cooking equipment constructed in the above specific manner has been described as an example, those skilled in the art will understand that this application is not limited thereto. In fact, users can flexibly adjust the relevant steps and parameters in the steps according to actual application scenarios and other circumstances. For example, the running time and the number of water inlets can be adjusted. In addition, the flow rate and duration of the water inlet parameters can be flexibly adjusted according to actual needs.

[0064] The technical solutions of this application have been described above with reference to the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of protection of this application is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of this application, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will all fall within the scope of protection of this application.
