In some instances, methods, means, components, and circuits well known to those skilled in the art have not been described in detail in order to highlight the main points of this disclosure.

[0028] This disclosure provides a fault identification method. The fault identification method of this invention can be applied to a sound wave sensing device, a stove including a sound wave sensing device, a smart terminal, or a backend server. For example, it can be a control unit of a sound wave sensing device or a stove including a sound wave sensing device, or a smart terminal or backend server communicatively connected to the sound wave sensing device or stove. The smart terminal can be a smart appliance control device, a PC, a mobile phone, or a smart wearable device, etc. The smart appliance control device is used to control at least one type of home appliance; this invention does not limit the scope of the method. This specification provides method operation steps as shown in the embodiments or flowcharts, but based on conventional or non-inventive labor, more or fewer operation steps may be included. The order of steps listed in the embodiments is merely one possible execution order among many steps and does not represent a unique execution order. In actual devices, systems, processors, or server products, the method can be executed sequentially according to the embodiments or accompanying drawings, or in parallel (e.g., in a parallel processor or multi-threaded processing environment).

[0029] The sound wave sensing device injects sound waves, especially ultrasonic waves, into the cooking container and receives and detects the sound wave feedback signal formed by the injected sound waves transmitted through the cooking container. Based on the sound wave feedback signal, it analyzes the characteristics of the sound wave vibration transmitted by the cooking container and accurately judges the physical state of the liquid in the cooking container (such as calm, boiling, or signs of overflow) and whether the cooking container is dry-burning. Based on this, it can intelligently adjust the firepower of the stove to achieve intelligent cooking or timely prompt the user.

[0030] Optionally, the acoustic sensing device includes a sound source component, an acoustic detection component, and a fault identification unit. Specifically, the sound source component provides detection acoustic waves and includes a sound wave generator, preferably an ultrasonic wave, which can be a piezoelectric ceramic transducer. The sound source component is connected to a sound wave conducting member, which transmits the acoustic waves generated by the sound wave generator directly or indirectly to the cooking container. One end of the sound wave conducting member is connected to the sound wave generator, and the other end is connected to a leg of a support for supporting the cooking container. Thus, the acoustic waves generated by the sound wave generator can be transmitted to the cooking container at least via the sound wave conducting member and the leg.

[0031] For example, the cooktop includes a support for a cooking container, the support comprising a plurality of spaced-apart legs, preferably 3-16 legs, such as 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, or 12 legs. Other numbers of legs are also possible, without limitation. The cooking container is supported by contact with the legs, which are relatively fixedly arranged. For example, each leg is connected to a leg frame, which can be circular, square, or rectangular, and can also be constructed in other shapes, without limitation. The legs are spaced apart; for example, the leg frame has a plurality of spaced-apart leg connecting portions, at which legs are fixedly connected.

[0032] Optionally, the sound wave generator operates at a frequency greater than or equal to 20 kHz, preferably 25 kHz to 400 kHz, especially 30 kHz to 250 kHz, such as 40 kHz, 50 kHz, 70 kHz, 80 kHz, 100 kHz, 120 kHz, 150 kHz or 200 kHz.

[0033] The acoustic wave detection component is used to detect and process received acoustic waves to obtain an acoustic wave detection signal. The received acoustic waves include acoustic waves generated by the detection acoustic waves provided by the sound source component and transmitted through the cooking container. For example, the acoustic wave detection component includes a vibration sensor that generates a detection signal based on the received vibration signal. The vibration sensor can be an acoustic wave sensor, for example, a piezoelectric ceramic transducer. The vibration sensor is connected to an acoustic wave transmission member. Optionally, one end of the acoustic wave transmission member is connected to the vibration sensor, and the other end is connected to another leg of the support used to support the cooking container. Thus, the acoustic waves provided by the sound source component can be transmitted from one leg to the cooking container via its acoustic wave transmission member, and then to the acoustic wave detection component via the other leg. The acoustic wave transmission member of the acoustic wave detection component transmits the acoustic waves to the vibration sensor, and the vibration sensor generates an acoustic wave detection signal based on the received acoustic waves.

[0034] Optionally, the acoustic sensing device includes one or more acoustic detection components. The acoustic source component and the plurality of acoustic detection components are respectively connected to different feet.

[0035] In an optional example, the bracket includes a first leg and a second leg spaced apart, the first leg and the second leg being two of a plurality of legs of the bracket, and the acoustic sensing device includes an acoustic detection component, the acoustic source component being connected to the first leg and the acoustic detection component being connected to the second leg.

[0036] In an optional example, the support includes a first leg, a second leg, and a third leg spaced apart. The first leg, the second leg, and the third leg are three of the multiple legs of the support. The sound wave sensing device includes two sound wave detection components. The sound source component is connected to the first leg, one of the two sound wave detection components is connected to the second leg, and the other of the two sound wave detection components is connected to the third leg. The detection sound wave provided by the sound source component is transmitted to the two sound wave detection components through the cooking container. Since the transmission paths of the detection sound wave to the two sound wave detection components are different, especially the transmission paths in the cooking container, the sound waves transmitted to the second leg and the third leg are different. Therefore, there is a certain difference in the sound waves received by the two sound wave detection components.

[0037] In an alternative example, the acoustic sensing device includes three acoustic detection components, which, along with the sound source component, are connected to four different feet.

[0038] The cooking container can be a wok, frying pan, or saucepan, or other types of cooking containers.

[0039] Figure 1 This diagram illustrates a flowchart of a fault identification method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the fault identification method includes: Step S101: Obtain a sound wave detection signal. The sound wave detection signal is obtained by the sound wave detection component detecting and processing the received sound wave. The received sound wave includes the sound wave formed by the detection sound wave passing through the cooking container. The detection sound wave is provided by the sound source component.

[0040] Specifically, the detection sound wave generated by the sound source component is transmitted to the sound wave detection component via the cooking container, and then to the support foot connected to the sound wave conduction component of the sound wave detection component, forming the received sound wave received by the sound wave detection component. The sound wave detection component detects the received sound wave and generates a sound wave detection signal.

[0041] Step S102: Extract and process the acoustic wave detection signal to obtain signal feature parameters.

[0042] Specifically, the detection sound wave generated by the sound source component is transmitted to the sound wave detection component via the support leg connected to the sound source component, the cooking container, and the support leg connected to the sound wave detection component, forming a received sound wave. The detected sound wave is transmitted through the sound wave transmission path including the support leg connected to the sound source component, the cooking container, and the support leg connected to the sound wave detection component to form the received sound wave. The acoustic characteristics of the sound wave transmission path affect the formed received sound wave. Sound wave transmission paths with different acoustic characteristics result in the same detection sound wave being transmitted to form a received sound wave or the received sound wave having different acoustic characteristics. The sound wave detection signal generated based on the received sound wave has different signal characteristics. The signal characteristics refer to the signal sequence characteristics corresponding to the sound wave detection signal. The signal characteristic parameters are used to quantitatively describe the signal characteristics or sound wave detection signal characteristics.

[0043] Abnormal conditions of the sound source component and / or sound wave detection component can also cause changes in the sound wave characteristics and / or sound wave detection signal of the received sound wave, which in turn leads to changes in the signal characteristic parameters corresponding to the received sound wave.

[0044] Step S103: Perform fault identification processing based on the signal characteristic parameters to obtain a fault identification result. The fault identification result is used to indicate that the sound wave sensing system is in one of a non-fault state or a fault state. The sound wave sensing system includes the sound source component, the sound wave detection component, and a sound wave transmission path including the cooking container.

[0045] Specifically, fault identification processing is performed based on the signal characteristic parameters to obtain the fault identification result. The non-fault state characterizes the acoustic wave sensing system as capable of generating, transmitting, and detecting sound waves in a desired manner. For the acoustic wave sensing system in the non-fault state, its sound source component can generate and transmit the desired detection sound wave, its sound wave transmission path can transmit the sound wave in a desired manner, and the transmission of the sound wave is not affected by unwanted obstacles such as oil stains or unstable contact between the cooking container and the support leg. Its acoustic wave detection component can generate an acoustic wave detection signal based on the received sound wave in a desired manner.

[0046] The fault condition indicates that the acoustic wave sensing system is unable to generate, transmit, or detect acoustic waves in the desired manner.

[0047] Therefore, this embodiment of the present disclosure determines signal characteristic parameters based on acoustic wave detection signals and performs fault identification processing based on the signal characteristic parameters to obtain fault identification results. This enables timely detection of the fault status of the acoustic wave sensing system, avoiding safety hazards caused by users' inability to detect the fault status of the acoustic wave sensing system in a timely manner. For example, it can avoid safety hazards caused by the inability to perform anti-overflow or dry-burning monitoring due to system abnormalities when using the acoustic wave sensing system for anti-overflow or dry-burning monitoring.

[0048] In an optional implementation, the signal characteristic parameters include signal strength and signal-to-noise ratio, the fault identification result includes first fault information, and the fault identification processing based on the signal characteristic parameters to obtain the fault identification result includes: When the signal strength is within a first strength range and the signal-to-noise ratio is less than or equal to a preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold, a first fault information is generated, which is used to indicate that the acoustic wave sensing system is in an external interference state.

[0049] Specifically, the first intensity range is used to indicate the normal signal intensity range, and a signal intensity within the first intensity range indicates that the signal intensity of the acoustic wave detection signal is normal. Optionally, the first intensity range includes a first lower limit value and a first upper limit value. The first lower limit value is -50dBm to -30dBm, for example, -35dBm, -40dBm, or -45dBm, and the first upper limit value is -20dBm to -5dBm, for example, -15dBm, -10dBm, or -8dBm. For example, the first intensity range is -50dBm to -5dBm, -45dBm to -8dBm, or -40dBm to -10dBm.

[0050] Optionally, if the signal-to-noise ratio is less than or equal to a preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold, the signal noise is considered to be too large. For example, the sound wave sensing system is subjected to strong external vibration interference or electromagnetic interference. For example, the preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold is 10~40dB, preferably 15~35dB, such as 18dB, 20dB, 22dB, 25dB, 30dB or 32dB.

[0051] For embodiments including an acoustic wave detection component, the aforementioned fault identification processing and subsequent fault identification processing steps can be performed using the signal strength and signal-to-noise ratio of the acoustic wave detection signal generated by the acoustic wave detection component, and will not be repeated hereafter. In various embodiments of this disclosure, the amplitude of the acoustic wave detection signal can be used to indicate its signal strength, and the amplitude or average amplitude of the acoustic wave detection signal can be used as the signal strength of the acoustic wave detection signal.

[0052] In an implementation including multiple acoustic wave detection components, the signal characteristic parameters include multiple sub-signal intensities and multiple sub-signal-to-noise ratios corresponding to the multiple acoustic wave detection components respectively. The sub-signal intensity corresponding to the acoustic wave detection component can be determined based on the acoustic wave detection signal generated by the acoustic wave detection component, and the sub-signal-to-noise ratio corresponding to the acoustic wave detection component can be determined based on the acoustic wave detection signal generated by the acoustic wave detection component. The first intensity range and the preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold corresponding to different acoustic wave detection components can be set to be the same or different. Then, when at least one sub-signal intensity is in the corresponding first intensity range, and the sub-signal-to-noise ratio corresponding to the sub-signal intensity is less than or equal to the corresponding preset signal-to-noise ratio threshold, a first fault information is generated. The first fault information is used to indicate that the acoustic wave sensing system is in an external interference state. The sub-signal intensity and sub-signal-to-noise ratio of the acoustic wave detection signal generated by the same acoustic wave detection component have a corresponding relationship, that is, the sub-signal-to-noise ratio corresponding to the sub-signal intensity is the sub-signal-to-noise ratio of the acoustic wave detection signal corresponding to the sub-signal intensity.

[0053] In an optional implementation, the signal characteristic parameters include signal strength, the fault identification result includes second fault information, and the fault identification processing based on the signal characteristic parameters to obtain the fault identification result includes: If the fluctuation range of the signal strength within a preset time period is greater than or equal to the preset fluctuation range, a second fault information is generated, which is used to indicate that the cooking container is in an unstable support state.

[0054] Specifically, if the signal strength fluctuates drastically within a short period of time, it is considered that the cooking container is not stably supported by the bracket, and the contact between the cooking container and the support feet is unstable. The preset duration can be 0.5-5 seconds, and the preset fluctuation amplitude can be a percentage of the signal strength, which can be 20% to 50%, preferably 25% to 45%, for example, 30%, 35%, or 40%. For example, if the preset duration is 1 second and the preset fluctuation amplitude is 30%, then if the signal strength fluctuates by more than or equal to 30% within 1 second, a second fault message is generated.

[0055] In an alternative example, a second fault message is generated when the signal strength is within a first strength range and the fluctuation range of the signal strength within a preset duration is greater than or equal to a preset fluctuation range.

[0056] For an implementation of an acoustic wave sensing system including multiple acoustic wave detection components spaced apart, the signal characteristic parameters include multiple sub-signal intensities corresponding to each of the multiple acoustic wave detection components, the fault identification result includes second fault information, and the fault identification processing based on the signal characteristic parameters to obtain the fault identification result includes: If the fluctuation amplitude of any one of the multiple sub-signal intensities is greater than or equal to the preset fluctuation amplitude within a preset duration, a second fault information is generated. The second fault information is used to indicate that the cooking container is in an unstable support state.

[0057] Specifically, the preset duration and preset fluctuation amplitude corresponding to multiple acoustic wave detection components can be set to the same value. The setting method for the preset duration and preset fluctuation amplitude is the same as the previous setting method, and will not be repeated here.

[0058] In an alternative example, a second fault message is generated when all of the sub-signal strengths are within a first strength range and the fluctuation amplitude of any one of the sub-signal strengths within a preset duration is greater than or equal to a preset fluctuation amplitude.

[0059] In an optional implementation, the fault identification result includes third fault information, and the fault identification processing based on the signal characteristic parameters to obtain the fault identification result includes: If the signal strength is less than or equal to a preset strength threshold, a third fault information is generated, which indicates that at least one of the sound source component and the sound wave detection component is in a failure state.

[0060] Optionally, the preset intensity threshold is less than the lower limit of the first intensity range, that is, less than the lower limit of the first intensity. For example, the preset intensity threshold is -80dBm to -50dBm, preferably -75dBm to -55dBm, such as -60dBm, -65dBm or -70dBm.

[0061] Optionally, the difference between the preset intensity threshold and the first intensity lower limit is -30dBm to -5dBm, for example -10dBm, -15dBm, -20dBm or -25dBm.

[0062] In an alternative implementation, if the duration of the signal strength being less than or equal to a preset strength threshold is greater than or equal to a target duration, a third fault message is generated, wherein the target duration is 1-60s, preferably 2-40s, for example 3s, 5s, 8s, 10s, 15s, 20s or 30s.

[0063] For example, if the signal strength is less than or equal to -60dBm within 5 seconds, a third fault message is generated.

[0064] The failure of the sound source component indicates that the sound source component is unable to provide detection sound waves, for example, a failure of the sound wave generator in the sound source component or a failure of the connection structure between the sound wave generator and its sound wave conduction component.

[0065] The failure of the acoustic wave detection component indicates that the acoustic wave detection component is unable to generate an acoustic wave detection signal based on the received acoustic waves. For example, the vibration sensor in the acoustic wave detection component may be faulty, or the connection structure between the acoustic wave conduction component and the vibration sensor in the acoustic wave detection component may be faulty.

[0066] Optionally, the acoustic wave sensing system includes multiple acoustic wave detection components spaced apart, the signal characteristic parameters include signal strength, the signal strength includes multiple sub-signal strengths corresponding to the multiple acoustic wave detection components respectively, and the fault identification result includes fourth fault information; The fault identification process based on the signal feature parameters to obtain the fault identification result includes: If at least one of the plurality of sub-signal intensities is within the corresponding first intensity range, and another of the plurality of sub-signal intensities is less than the corresponding preset intensity threshold, a fourth fault information is generated, which is used to indicate that the acoustic wave detection component corresponding to the other sub-signal intensity is in a failure state.

[0067] Specifically, the preset intensity thresholds corresponding to different acoustic wave detection components may be the same or different. If the intensity of at least one sub-signal is within the corresponding first intensity range and the intensity of another sub-signal is less than the corresponding preset intensity threshold, a fourth fault information is generated. The fourth fault information is used to indicate that the acoustic wave detection component corresponding to the intensity of the other sub-signal is in a failed state.

[0068] In an alternative implementation, the fourth fault information is generated when at least one of the plurality of sub-signal strengths is within a corresponding first strength range, and the duration of another sub-signal strength less than a corresponding preset strength threshold is greater than or equal to a target duration. The target duration can be set according to a previously configured method, which will not be elaborated upon here.
