[0049] To better understand the technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this specification, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this specification will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be understood that the embodiments of this specification and the specific features in the embodiments are detailed descriptions of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this specification, rather than limitations on the technical solutions of this specification. In the absence of conflict, the embodiments of this specification and the technical features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0050] In this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, without necessarily requiring or implying any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element. The term "two or more" includes two or more cases.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 This application proposes a cooking device 100, which can be a small kitchen appliance such as a rice cooker or a stir-fry machine, and can perform processes such as stir-frying and soup making.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 2 The cooking device 100 includes a pot body 20, a base assembly 50, a stirring assembly 10, and a top cover 60. The base assembly 50 includes a base 90, the pot body 20 is installed inside the base 90, and a cooking cavity 21 is formed inside the pot body 20. The top cover 60 is used to open or close the opening of the cooking cavity 21. The stirring assembly 10 is installed on the base 90 and is used to stir the ingredients in the cooking cavity 21, thereby realizing processes such as stir-frying and soup making.

[0053] However, in related technologies, the stirring assembly 10 includes a drive component 2 and a stirring component 1. The drive component 2 can only rotate the stirring component 1, but it is difficult to raise and lower the stirring component 1, that is, it is difficult to achieve three-dimensional stirring cooking. When stir-frying food, the bottom and top of the food are difficult to mix, resulting in uneven heating and coloring of the food. It is understandable that three-dimensional stirring refers to a stirring method in which stirring can be achieved at different heights.

[0054] In response, this application proposes a stirring assembly 10.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 3 The stirring assembly 10 includes: a stirring element 1, a driving element 2, and a driven element 3.

[0056] The stirring element 1 is sleeved on the output shaft 21 of the driving element 2. The output shaft 21 of the driving element 2 is used to drive the stirring element 1 to rotate. The stirring element 1 is adapted to move along the axial direction of the output shaft 21. The driven element 3 is threadedly engaged with the output shaft 21 and is adapted to move along the axial direction of the output shaft 21 when the output shaft 21 rotates. The driven element 3 is configured to drive the stirring element 1 to move along the axial direction of the output shaft 21.

[0057] Therefore, the rotation of the stirring component 1 can be achieved by a single drive component 2, and the stirring component 1 can be moved axially on the output shaft 21, thereby realizing three-dimensional stirring cooking. This improves the mixing effect and rapid and even heating effect of the ingredients when stir-frying them, and makes the top and bottom of the ingredients more evenly colored. It also helps to simplify the structure of the stirring component 10.

[0058] For example, the stirring component 1 can be a stirring rod or a stirring blade, and the driving component 2 can be a driving motor 22. The stirring component 1 is sleeved on the output shaft 21 of the driving motor 22, and the output shaft 21 of the driving motor is used to drive the stirring component 1 to rotate synchronously, so as to realize the stirring component 1 to stir the food.

[0059] The driven member 3 is threadedly engaged with the output shaft 21. For example, the driven member 3 can be sleeved on the output shaft 21, or the output shaft 21 can be a hollow shaft, with the hollow shaft sleeved on the driven member 3, so as to realize the threaded engagement between the driven member 3 and the output shaft 21. Since the output shaft 21 can rotate, when the driven member 3 and the output shaft 21 are in a limiting engagement in the circumferential direction of the output shaft 21, the output shaft 21 and the driven member 3 form a ball screw engagement, so that the driven member 3 converts the circumferential rotation of the output shaft 21 into linear motion, that is, the driven member 3 is suitable for moving along the axial direction of the output shaft 21 when the output shaft 21 rotates.

[0060] In this way, the movement of the driven member 3 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21 does not require a separate drive structure. The movement of the driven member 3 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21 can be achieved by the rotation of the output shaft 21 through the threaded engagement between the driven member 3 and the output shaft 21.

[0061] The agitator 1 is adapted to move axially along the output shaft 21. The follower 3 is configured to drive the agitator 1 to move axially along the output shaft 21. For example, the agitator 1 and the follower 3 are connected at one end in the axial direction of the output shaft 21. In this way, when the follower 3 moves axially along the output shaft 21, the follower 3 will drive the agitator 1 to move axially along the output shaft 21, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the agitator 1.

[0062] In this way, the rotation of the stirring component 1 can be achieved by a single drive component 2, and the stirring component 1 can be moved axially on the output shaft 21, thereby realizing three-dimensional stirring cooking. This improves the mixing effect and rapid and even heating effect of the ingredients when stir-frying, and makes the top and bottom of the ingredients more evenly colored. It also helps to simplify the structure of the stirring component 10.

[0063] According to the embodiment of this application, when the output shaft 21 of the driving member 2 of the stirring assembly 10 rotates, it can drive the stirring member 1 to rotate. And by setting a follower 3 connected to the stirring member 1, the stirring member 1 is driven to move relative to the output shaft 21 when the follower 3 moves along the axial direction of the output shaft 21. In this way, the rotation of the stirring member 1 can be realized by a single driving member 2, and the movement of the stirring member 1 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21 can be realized at the same time, thereby realizing three-dimensional stirring cooking. In this way, when stir-frying food, the mixing effect and rapid and even heating effect of the food are improved, and the coloring of the top and bottom of the food is more uniform. At the same time, it is beneficial to simplify the structure of the stirring assembly 10.

[0064] In some embodiments, the follower 3 is sleeved on the output shaft 21.

[0065] For example, the driven member 3 may include a nut with an internal thread 32, and the outer peripheral wall of the output shaft 21 with an external thread 212. The driven member 3 is sleeved on the output shaft 21 so that the internal thread 32 and the external thread 212 are threadedly engaged. This reduces the difficulty of setting the external thread 212 and the driven member 3, and allows the driven member 3 to move axially on the output shaft 21 without a separate drive structure. The movement of the driven member 3 on the output shaft 21 is achieved by the threaded engagement between the driven member 3 and the output shaft 21, using the rotation of the output shaft 21. In this way, the rotation of the stirring member 1 can be achieved using a single drive member 2, and the movement of the stirring member 1 on the output shaft 21 can be achieved simultaneously, thereby realizing three-dimensional stirring cooking. This improves the mixing effect and rapid and even heating effect of the ingredients when stir-frying, and makes the top and bottom of the ingredients more evenly colored. It also simplifies the structure of the stirring assembly 10.

[0066] In some embodiments, one of the follower 3 and the agitator 1 is provided with a mating groove 31, and the other is provided with a mating protrusion 11. The mating protrusion 11 and the mating groove 31 are in upper axial engagement with each other on the output shaft 21, and the mating protrusion 11 and the mating groove 31 are in rotatable engagement in the circumferential direction of the output shaft 21.

[0067] For example, the agitator 1 is provided with a mating groove 31, and the driven member 3 is provided with a mating protrusion 11, or please refer to Figure 4 The agitator 1 is provided with a mating protrusion 11, and refers to Figure 5 The driven member 3 is provided with a mating groove 31, and the mating protrusion 11 is inserted into the mating groove 31.

[0068] It is understandable that when the output shaft 21 rotates, the stirring element 1 rotates synchronously with the output shaft 21, while the driven element 3 does not rotate synchronously with the output shaft 21 and moves along the thread along the axial direction of the output shaft 21. At the same time, the driven element 3 is used to drive the stirring element 1 to move along the axial direction of the output shaft 21. Therefore, by setting the mating groove 31 and the mating protrusion 11, a weak connection is achieved between the driven element 3 and the stirring element 1. In this way, while ensuring that the stirring element 1 can rotate relative to the driven element 3, the driven element 3 can drive the stirring element 1 to move along the axial direction of the output shaft 21.

[0069] In some embodiments, the mating protrusion 11 is arranged around the circumference of the output shaft 21, and the mating groove 31 is adapted to the mating protrusion 11. This increases the contact area between the mating protrusion 11 and the mating groove 31, thereby increasing the connection stability between the agitator 1 and the follower 3 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21 while ensuring that the agitator 1 can rotate relative to the follower 3.

[0070] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 6 The output shaft 21 includes a sliding section 211, which is inserted into the mating hole 12 of the stirring member 1 (e.g., Figure 7 The mixing element 1 has a mating hole 12) and slides with the mixing element 1. The cross-sectional structure of the sliding section 211 is polygonal, and the shape of the mating hole 12 is adapted to the shape of the sliding section 211.

[0071] Thus, the connection between the stirring element 1 and the output shaft 21 is achieved by inserting the sliding section 211 into the mating hole 12. Furthermore, by setting the cross-sectional structure of the sliding section 211 to be polygonal, and adapting the shape of the mating hole 12 to the shape of the sliding section 211, the stirring element 1 and the output shaft 21 can be limited in the circumferential direction of the output shaft 21. This ensures that the output shaft 21 can drive the stirring element 1 to rotate synchronously when the output shaft 21 rotates, thereby avoiding relative rotation between the stirring element 1 and the output shaft 21.

[0072] The polygons mentioned above can be triangles, quadrilaterals, pentagons, or hexagons, etc., and are not limited here.

[0073] In some embodiments, the sliding segment 211 is a cylindrical structure, and a rib extending axially along the output shaft 21 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the cylindrical structure. The inner wall of the mating hole 12 may be provided with a groove that mates with the rib. The rib is inserted into the groove so that the shape of the sliding segment 211 is adapted to the shape of the mating hole 12.

[0074] Alternatively, the sliding section 211 may be a cylindrical structure, and the inner wall of the mating hole 12 may be provided with a rib extending along the axial direction of the output shaft 21. A groove that mates with the rib is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the cylindrical structure. The rib is inserted into the groove so that the shape of the sliding section 211 matches the shape of the mating hole 12.

[0075] In this way, the stirring element 1 and the output shaft 21 can be limited in the circumferential direction of the output shaft 21, so that when the output shaft 21 rotates, it can be ensured that the output shaft 21 can drive the stirring element 1 to rotate synchronously, and the relative rotation between the stirring element 1 and the output shaft 21 is avoided.

[0076] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The stirring assembly 10 also includes a blade holder 4, which is connected to the follower 3 and engages with the follower 3 in the circumferential upper limit of the output shaft 21.

[0077] For example Figure 7 As shown, the tool holder 4 is provided with a polygonal hole 41, and the sliding section 211 of the output shaft 21 can pass through the polygonal hole 41 and be in upper limit engagement with the polygonal hole 41 in the circumferential direction of the output shaft 21 and in upper sliding engagement with the output shaft 21 in the axial direction.

[0078] Therefore, by setting the tool holder 4, the follower 3 can be limited in the circumferential direction of the output shaft 21 by the tool holder 4, so as to prevent the follower 3 from rotating synchronously with the output shaft 21. Furthermore, since the follower 3 is threadedly engaged with the output shaft 21, the follower 3 can move along the axial direction of the output shaft 21 when the output shaft 21 rotates.

[0079] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3 The driving component 2 includes: a drive motor 22, a connecting part 23, and an output shaft 21.

[0080] The connecting part 23 is connected to the rotating shaft 221 of the drive motor 22, and the output shaft 21 is connected to the connecting part 23.

[0081] Therefore, by providing the connecting part 23, a power connection can be achieved between the rotating shaft 221 and the output shaft 21 of the drive motor 22. For example, when the axial dimension of the rotating shaft 221 of the drive motor 22 is small, the axial dimension of the rotating shaft 221 can be extended through the connecting part 23 and the output shaft 21 to achieve a fit with the stirring member 1 and the driven member 3.

[0082] In some implementations, the connecting part 23 can be a coupling connected between the rotating shaft 221 and the output shaft 21, so that the output shaft 21 and the rotating shaft 221 can rotate synchronously, thereby providing driving force for the rotation of the stirring element 1 and the lifting and lowering of the stirring element 1 driven by the driven element 3.

[0083] This application also proposes a control method for a stirring assembly, which is applied to the stirring assembly 10 in any of the above embodiments. Please refer to... Figure 8 The control methods for the stirring components include:

[0084] S10: In response to the stirring command, control the operation of drive unit 2;

[0085] It is understood that the drive unit 2 can control the output shaft 21 to rotate after receiving the stirring command. The rotation direction of the output shaft 21 can be clockwise or counterclockwise, and is not limited here.

[0086] S20: Obtain the axial position information of the driven member 3 on the output shaft 21;

[0087] It is understandable that the axial position information refers to the position of the follower 3 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21. Since the follower 3 is connected to the agitator 1, the position of the follower 3 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21 is positively correlated with the position of the agitator 1 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21.

[0088] S30: Control the output direction of drive component 2 based on axial position information.

[0089] It is understandable that the output direction of the drive unit 2 refers to the rotation direction of the output shaft 21 of the drive unit 2 being opposite to the current rotation direction of the output shaft 21. When the output shaft 21 rotates, the driven member 3 drives the stirring member 1 to move along the axial direction of the output shaft 21, thereby changing the position of the driven member 3 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21. Therefore, the output direction of the drive unit 2 is controlled according to the axial position information of the driven member 3 so that the stirring member 1 can rotate in the opposite direction while lifting and lowering to meet the usage requirements of the stirring assembly 10.

[0090] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 9 The steps for obtaining the axial position information of the driven member 3 on the output shaft 21 include:

[0091] S21: Obtain the rotation information of the output shaft 21 and the rotation duration corresponding to the rotation information. The rotation information includes rotation speed information and rotation direction information.

[0092] S22: Determine the axial position information based on the rotation information and rotation duration.

[0093] Therefore, the axial position information can be determined based on the rotation speed information, rotation direction information, and rotation duration corresponding to the rotation information of the output shaft 21, thereby reducing the difficulty of determining the axial position information.

[0094] In some implementations, at least one of the rotation speed, rotation direction, and rotation duration can be set to a predetermined value, which makes it easier to reduce the difficulty of determining the axial position information.

[0095] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 10 Obtaining the axial position information of the driven member 3 on the output shaft 21 includes:

[0096] S23: Obtain the load information of driver 2;

[0097] It can be understood that the drive unit 2 outputs current to control the rotation of the output shaft 21. Therefore, the load information of the drive unit 2 is the output current information of the drive unit 2. Since the stirring unit 1 rotates synchronously with the output shaft 21, the rotation speed of the stirring unit 1 is positively correlated with the output current of the drive unit 2. Thus, the load information of the drive unit 2 can be determined by obtaining the rotational resistance of the stirring unit 1.

[0098] S24: Determine the axial position information based on the load information.

[0099] For example, when the agitator 1 is stirring a liquid, the axial position of the agitator 1 on the output shaft 21 differs depending on whether it is below the liquid surface or above it. Furthermore, the resistance experienced by the agitator 1 differs; generally, the resistance experienced by the agitator 1 below the liquid surface is greater than that experienced by it above the liquid surface. Therefore, to maintain the same rotational speed, the drive unit 2 needs to output different currents. Thus, the axial position information can be determined based on the load information.

[0100] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 11 The steps for controlling the output direction of drive unit 2 based on axial position information include:

[0101] S31: When the driven member 3 is in the first reversing position on the output shaft 21, the output direction of the drive member 2 is switched. The first reversing position is located between the two ends of the thread on the output shaft 21.

[0102] It is understandable that the first reversing position is located between the two ends of the thread of the output shaft 21, and the first reversing position can be located at both ends of the thread of the output shaft 21. In this way, the output direction of the drive member 2 can be controlled when the driven member 3 moves to the first reversing position, so that the stirring member 1 can rotate in the opposite direction while lifting and lowering to meet the usage requirements of the stirring assembly 10. At the same time, it can prevent the driven member 3 from disengaging from the threaded engagement with the output shaft 21.

[0103] S32: When the driven member 3 is in the second reversing position on the output shaft 21, the output direction of the drive member 2 is switched. The second reversing position is different from the first reversing position and is located between the two ends of the thread on the output shaft 21.

[0104] In this way, the output direction of the drive unit 2 can be controlled when the driven member 3 moves to the second reversing position, so that the stirring member 1 can rotate in the opposite direction while moving up and down to meet the usage requirements of the stirring assembly 10. At the same time, it can prevent the driven member 3 from disengaging from the threaded engagement with the output shaft 21.

[0105] This application also proposes a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that, when executed, implements the control method of the stirring assembly of any of the above embodiments.

[0106] This application also proposes a control device 200.

[0107] Please refer to Figure 12 The control device 200 includes a memory 201 and a processor 202. The memory 201 stores a computer program, and the processor 202 executes the computer program. When executing the computer program, the processor 202 implements the control method of the stirring assembly as described in any of the above embodiments.

[0108] Since the control device 200 described in this embodiment is the equipment used to implement the control method of the stirring component in the embodiments of this application, those skilled in the art can understand the specific implementation and various variations of the control device 200 in this embodiment based on the method described in the embodiments of this application. Therefore, how the control device 200 implements the method in the embodiments of this application will not be described in detail here. Any equipment used by those skilled in the art to implement the method in the embodiments of this application falls within the scope of protection of this application.

[0109] In some embodiments, the cooking device 100 proposed in this application includes: a stirring assembly 10 of any of the above embodiments; and / or a control device 200 of the above embodiments.

[0110] In the implementation of the cooking device 100 including the stirring assembly 10 of any of the above embodiments, when the output shaft 21 of the driving member 2 of the stirring assembly 10 rotates, it can drive the stirring member 1 to rotate. And by setting a follower 3 connected to the stirring member 1, the stirring member 1 is driven to move relative to the output shaft 21 when the follower 3 moves along the axial direction of the output shaft 21. In this way, the rotation of the stirring member 1 can be realized by a single driving member 2, and the movement of the stirring member 1 in the axial direction of the output shaft 21 can be realized at the same time, thereby realizing three-dimensional stirring cooking. This improves the mixing effect and rapid and even heating effect of the ingredients when stir-frying them, and makes the top and bottom of the ingredients more evenly colored. At the same time, it helps to simplify the structure of the stirring assembly 10.

[0111] When the cooking equipment 100 includes the stirring assembly 10 and the control device 200 of any of the above embodiments, the control device 200 can control the stirring assembly 10 according to the control method of the stirring assembly described in the above embodiments, thereby meeting the usage requirements of the cooking equipment 100.

[0112] For example, when the control device 200 controls the stirring assembly 10 to work using the control method described above, the specific control method can be referred to... Figure 13 After placing the ingredients into the cooking chamber 21, the cooking device 100 is first selected with a cooking setting, such as a simmering setting. Different settings represent different rotation speeds of the output shaft 21 of the drive unit 2. Heating then begins. Next, the drive motor 22 inputs current to start stirring and timing. At this time, the output shaft 21 rotates, causing the stirring unit 1 to rotate and the driven unit 3 to drive the stirring unit 1 to rise or fall axially on the output shaft 21. Then, it is determined whether the stirring time has reached t1. If the stirring time has not reached t1, the timing continues. If the stirring time reaches t1, it means that the driven unit 3 has reached its maximum stroke on the thread of the output shaft 21. At this time, the drive motor 22 inputs reverse current to control the output shaft 21 to reverse. The operation ends when the stirring time reaches t2, where t2 is greater than t1.

[0113] Or you can refer to Figure 14 After placing the ingredients into the cooking chamber 21, the cooking device 100 is first selected with a cooking setting such as boiling. Different settings represent different rotation speeds of the output shaft 21 of the drive component 2. Then, heating begins, and when the heating time is t, the drive motor 22 is controlled to input current to start stirring and output load feedback current. At this time, the output shaft 21 rotates, causing the stirring component 1 to rotate, and the driven component 3 causes the stirring component 1 to rise or fall axially on the output shaft 21. The load feedback current refers to the current required for the stirring component 1 to maintain the current speed while stirring the ingredients at different heights. For example, when the stirring component 1 reaches the top of the ingredients or liquid or when the stirring component 1 is lowered to the bottom of the cooking pot, the load on the stirring component 1 changes due to the different relative positions of the stirring component 1 and the ingredients, which in turn causes a change in the current magnitude.

[0114] Then, the magnitude of the load feedback current is determined. If the magnitude of the load feedback current is between I1 and I2, stirring continues. If the magnitude of the load feedback current is not between I1 and I2, the drive motor 22 inputs a reverse current to control the output shaft 21 to reverse, thereby controlling the stirring component 1 to reverse and output feedback current. The work ends when the stirring time reaches t2, where t2 is greater than t.
