[0003] Traditional temperature control methods transfer heat from the chip to the device casing or heat sink fins using air cooling, liquid cooling, or phase-change heat sinks, relying on closed-loop fan speed regulation to maintain thermal balance and ensure the chip junction temperature does not exceed a safe threshold. This method has certain shortcomings; the entire temperature control focuses solely on chip safety, leading to higher risks for actual users (e.g., users may suffer burns from heat sink vents due to the focus solely on chip safety). In other words, this temperature control method is less effective due to the higher risks associated with actual user operation.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0021] To better understand the technical solution of this application, a detailed description will be provided below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.

[0022] Common temperature control methods typically employ air cooling, liquid cooling, or semiconductor cooling, allowing users to manually or automatically set performance modes (such as high-performance mode, balanced mode, etc.) to control temperature by altering the heating effect. However, under certain high-load operating scenarios, temperature control devices may operate in high-temperature ranges. If a user accidentally touches critical areas of the device (such as heat dissipation vents, hot spots on the metal casing, etc.) in this state, it can easily lead to burns or discomfort. Therefore, current temperature control methods focus solely on chip safety, resulting in inadequate safety in actual use.

[0023] Therefore, based on the shortcomings of the above temperature control methods, this application proposes a temperature control method. The solution of this application embodiment is: to combine user detection data collected by a user detector with the original temperature sensing data for temperature control, thereby avoiding the problem that the entire temperature control process focuses solely on chip safety, leading to a higher risk for actual users. This temperature control method combines the original temperature sensing data with user detection data, taking into account the user's usage scenarios to ensure user safety and improve the effectiveness of temperature control. Furthermore, when considering user usage scenarios, user location data and user contact data are combined for verification to ensure the accuracy of the determination of user usage scenarios, thereby further improving the effectiveness of temperature control.

[0024] It should be noted that the executing entity in this embodiment can be a computing server with data processing, network communication, and program execution functions, such as a high-performance computing chip, a graphics processing unit, and an AI (Artificial Intelligence) accelerator, etc. The following description uses a temperature control device to be controlled as an example to illustrate this embodiment and the subsequent embodiments.

[0025] Based on this, embodiments of this application provide a temperature control method, referring to... Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart of the first embodiment of the temperature control method of this application.

[0026] Reference Figure 1This application provides a temperature control method applied to a temperature control device, the temperature control device including a user detector, and the temperature control method including: Step S10: In response to the temperature sensing data, acquire user detection data collected by the user detector, wherein the user detection data includes user location data and user contact data; For example, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the temperature control device of this application. The temperature control device consists of a user detector 10, a temperature controller 20, a heat dissipation control module 30, and a performance detection module 40. The performance detection module 40 sends the current operating status (temperature, performance mode) of the temperature control device to the temperature controller 20. It can directly use the temperature in the operating state as temperature sensing data, or it can use the performance mode in the operating state to deduce the temperature sensing data. The temperature sensing data refers to the temperature values ​​sensed at the chip and heat dissipation locations within the temperature control device. The user detector 10 collects the user's contact signal and distance signal and transmits them to the temperature controller 20 as the basis for temperature control. Finally, the temperature controller 20 outputs control commands to the heat dissipation control module 30 based on the results of multiple condition judgments (including at least the user detection data and the current temperature sensing data of the temperature control device). Finally, the heat dissipation control module 30 performs operations such as fan acceleration, power limiting, or heat source suppression according to actual heat dissipation needs to achieve temperature control of the temperature control device. Furthermore, the temperature controller 20, as the core control unit, is used to execute logical judgments and control strategies. It can be a microcontroller, an embedded controller, or an internal control unit of a SoC (System on Chip) to achieve multi-sensor data fusion and decision control. The performance detection module 40 is used to identify the operating status of the temperature control device, including the performance level (high performance / balanced) and the core temperature range, which can be achieved by reading the internal temperature sensor of the chip and the system performance status register. The heat dissipation control module 30 is used to adjust the heat dissipation capacity of the temperature control device, including fan speed control, liquid cooling flow rate adjustment, or power limiting control. It can be specifically implemented as a PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) fan control circuit, a power management module, or a dynamic voltage and frequency adjustment module, etc.

[0027] In this embodiment, the main triggering condition for executing the entire temperature control process is the acquisition of user detection data collected by the user detector in response to temperature sensing data. This user detection data includes user location data and user contact data. For example, the temperature sensing data mainly consists of a second temperature value of the chip inside the temperature control device and a first temperature value of the heat dissipation location. Subsequent temperature control is then performed based on these two temperature values. The advantage of selecting two temperature values ​​for judgment is that it ensures the effectiveness of the temperature control device for user use while simultaneously cooling the chip normally. For instance, if the second temperature value is greater than the chip's high-temperature threshold or the first temperature value is greater than the first high-temperature threshold, the subsequent detection process will be executed to ensure chip safety and improve user safety. The chip's high-temperature threshold refers to the temperature threshold at which the chip needs to be cooled, and the first high-temperature threshold is the temperature threshold for the heat dissipation location defined based on user perception. For example, the triggering condition for the entire user detection is adaptively triggered based on the temperature sensing data to ensure normal use of the temperature control device while further enhancing user safety protection.

[0028] For example, user location data refers to the distance between the user and the temperature control device, generally the closest distance or the distance to a normally touchable or operable area on the temperature control device. This avoids misjudging the user as approaching and serves as the initial signal indicating that the user is about to make contact. For example, the distance A between the user and the operating interface. User contact data refers to the distance S between the user and the heat dissipation location. Combining user location data and user contact data allows for accurate judgment of user behavior, ensuring the accuracy of the overall temperature control.

[0029] Step S20: When the location value in the user location data is less than the user safe location threshold, a temperature control command is determined based on the user contact data and temperature sensing data, so as to perform temperature control on the temperature control device based on the temperature control command.

[0030] In this embodiment, the judgment of user behavior is mainly divided into an initial judgment, which mainly judges the position value in the user location data. Then, when the position value in the user location data is less than the user's safe position threshold, it can be determined that the user is operating the temperature control device or has approached it. Further judgment is then made based on user contact data and temperature sensing data to determine the temperature control command for the entire temperature control device. The user's safe position threshold refers to a user-defined safe distance value. For example, if the distance from the operating area is A, it can be determined that the user is likely to touch the temperature control device. Therefore, it is necessary to determine the temperature control command based on the user contact data and temperature sensing data, and then specifically control the temperature of the temperature control device to ensure user safety. For example, at this time, the temperature control command mainly controls the temperature of the heat dissipation area. That is, the target location for heat dissipation is changed to the heat dissipation location to avoid burns caused by accidental contact with the heat dissipation location, thereby ensuring the temperature control effect.

[0031] In one embodiment, user contact data includes a first distance value between the user and the heat dissipation location of the temperature control device, and temperature sensing data includes a first temperature value of the heat dissipation location. The step of determining a temperature control command based on the user contact data and the temperature sensing data includes: Step S21: When the first distance value is greater than the preset heat dissipation influence threshold and the first temperature value is greater than the first high temperature threshold, the temperature control command is determined to be the start heat dissipation control command for heat dissipation control of the heat dissipation location. Step S22: When the first distance value is greater than the preset heat dissipation impact threshold and the first temperature value is less than or equal to the first high temperature threshold, or when the first distance value is less than or equal to the preset heat dissipation impact threshold, the temperature control command is determined to be a stop heat dissipation control command.

[0032] In this embodiment, the user contact data includes a first distance value between the user and the heat dissipation location of the temperature control device, and the temperature sensing data includes a first temperature value of the heat dissipation location. Since the location value in the user location data indicates that the user may continue to contact the heat dissipation location, cooling of the heat dissipation location needs to begin. At this time, pre-cooling control is performed based on the distance value between the user and the heat dissipation location and the temperature value of the heat dissipation location itself. The heat dissipation location is the location where the temperature control device exchanges heat with the external environment; it can be a heat vent or a heat sink. The first distance value refers to the distance between the user and the heat dissipation location, which can be measured by a position sensor installed at the heat dissipation location. The first temperature value refers to the temperature value of the heat dissipation location, which can be measured by a temperature sensor installed at the heat dissipation location. Furthermore, when the first distance value is greater than a preset heat dissipation impact threshold and the first temperature value is greater than a first high temperature threshold, the temperature control command is determined to be a start heat dissipation control command for the heat dissipation location. That is, at this time, the user has not yet shown a tendency to contact the heat dissipation location (the first distance value is greater than the preset heat dissipation impact threshold), so when the first temperature value is greater than the first high temperature threshold, heat dissipation control of the heat dissipation location will begin. The preset heat dissipation impact threshold refers to the location where heat dissipation will not affect the user's senses. For example, if the distance of the maximum hot air during heat dissipation is A, then A can be set as the preset heat dissipation impact threshold. The first high temperature threshold refers to the temperature value that will affect the user's perception. Therefore, heat dissipation control can be performed in advance based on location and temperature values ​​to ensure the safety of subsequent contact. Furthermore, heat dissipation is performed considering the user's position to ensure that heat dissipation will not affect the user's actual use or cause harm. In another embodiment, when the first distance value is greater than the preset heat dissipation impact threshold and the first temperature value is less than or equal to the first high temperature threshold (i.e., the temperature is not high at this time, and heat dissipation is not required), or when the first distance value is less than or equal to the preset heat dissipation impact threshold (i.e., although the temperature is high at this time, the user is about to approach the heat dissipation location; if heat dissipation continues, the user will have the equivalent feeling of being directly blown by the air conditioner's outdoor unit, so heat dissipation is stopped at this time to ensure the user's contact experience), the temperature control command is determined to be a stop heat dissipation control command. The entire control process performs heat dissipation in advance at different locations and temperatures to ensure the effectiveness of subsequent temperature control and the safety of use.

[0033] In this embodiment, a temperature control method is provided, applied to a temperature control device including a user detector. The user detector acquires user detection data in response to temperature sensing data, wherein the user detection data includes user location data and user contact data. When the location value in the user location data is less than a user safe location threshold, a temperature control command is determined based on the user contact data and the temperature sensing data. Temperature control is then applied to the temperature control device based on this command. This temperature control method combines the original temperature sensing data with the user detection data acquired by the user detector for temperature control, avoiding the problem of the entire temperature control process focusing solely on chip safety, which could lead to higher risks for actual users. In other words, this temperature control method combines the original temperature sensing data with user detection data to control temperature, taking into account user usage scenarios to ensure user safety and improve the effectiveness of temperature control. Furthermore, by combining user location data and user contact data for verification when considering user usage scenarios, the accuracy of the user usage scenario determination is ensured, further improving the effectiveness of temperature control.

[0034] Furthermore, based on the first embodiment of this application described above, a second embodiment of the temperature control method of this application is proposed. In this embodiment, after the step of determining the temperature control command based on user contact data and temperature sensing data, the method includes: Step S23: When the temperature control command is a stop heat dissipation control command, stop heat dissipation control is performed on the heat dissipation location and the chip of the temperature control device according to the stop heat dissipation control command. Step S24: When the temperature control command is a start heat dissipation control command, start heat dissipation control is performed on the heat dissipation location according to the start heat dissipation control command. The start heat dissipation control command includes at least one of adjusting the heat source distribution of the chip, reducing the power output of the chip, and increasing the physical cooling rate.

[0035] In this embodiment, the heat dissipation control of the temperature control device is mainly divided into stop heat dissipation control and start heat dissipation control. When the temperature control command is a stop heat dissipation control command, the heat dissipation control of the heat dissipation location and the chip of the temperature control device is stopped according to the stop heat dissipation control command. That is, at this time, the cooling of the heat dissipation location and the chip is stopped to avoid the risk of burns when the user touches the heat dissipation location. For example, the opening of the heat dissipation location is directly closed to avoid burns to the user from high temperature. The stop heat dissipation control command is an instruction to stop controlling the heat dissipation location and the chip to dissipate heat and cool down. In another embodiment, when the temperature control command is a start heat dissipation control command, the heat dissipation location is started according to the start heat dissipation control command. The start heat dissipation control command includes at least one of adjusting the heat source distribution of the chip, reducing the power output of the chip, and increasing the physical cooling rate. That is, at this time, the temperature of the heat dissipation location is reduced by adjusting the heat source distribution of the chip to reduce the overall heat source output of the chip. Similarly, reducing the power output of the chip also reduces the temperature of the heat dissipation location by reducing the output temperature of the chip. Increasing the physical cooling rate refers to increasing the cooling effect by increasing the fan speed. Of course, other heat dissipation control methods for the heat dissipation location can also be used, which will not be described in detail here.

[0036] In another embodiment, after the step of determining the temperature control command based on user contact data and temperature sensing data, the method includes: Step S26: When the temperature control command is a stop heat dissipation control command and the operating temperature of the chip in the temperature control device is greater than the chip high temperature threshold, the chip is cooled according to a preset special cooling command. The preset special cooling command includes at least one of reducing the chip's power output and changing the heat dissipation output position.

[0037] In this embodiment, after issuing a stop heat dissipation control command, assuming the user is fully in contact with the heat dissipation location or remains within the preset heat dissipation impact threshold, if the operating temperature of the chip in the temperature control device is found to be less than or equal to the chip's high-temperature threshold, the stop heat dissipation control command can continue to be used to control the heat dissipation location and the chip. Conversely, if it is determined that the operating temperature of the chip in the temperature control device is greater than the chip's high-temperature threshold, then the chip needs to be cooled to ensure the overall safety of the temperature control device. This can be achieved by using a preset special cooling command, which includes at least one of reducing the chip's power output and changing the heat dissipation output location. Reducing the chip's power output means reducing the temperature rise by decreasing the chip's output. However, if the temperature control device is a high-power demand device (e.g., an electric drill), reducing the chip's power output is not feasible. In this case, heat dissipation control can be achieved by changing the heat dissipation output location. For example, if the temperature control device has three heat dissipation locations D1-D3, and the control command for the D1 heat dissipation location is a stop heat dissipation control command, and it is found that the chip is overheating and needs to be cooled, then the D2 and / or D3 heat dissipation locations will be used to ensure normal chip cooling.

[0038] In another embodiment, after the step of acquiring user detection data collected by the user detector in response to temperature sensing data, the method includes: Step S11: When the first temperature value is greater than the second high temperature threshold, the pre-control instruction is determined to be the start heat dissipation control instruction for pre-heat dissipation control of the heat dissipation location, wherein the pre-control instruction is used to pre-heat dissipation control of the heat dissipation location, and the second high temperature threshold is greater than the first high temperature threshold.

[0039] In this embodiment, another scenario involves preemptively cooling the heat dissipation location when the temperature is too high. This means that cooling is initiated beforehand to ensure the safety of subsequent user contact. For example, when a first temperature value is determined to be greater than a second high-temperature threshold, a pre-control instruction is defined as a start-up heat dissipation control instruction for pre-heat dissipation control of the heat dissipation location. This pre-control instruction can be used to pre-heat dissipation control of the heat dissipation location, and can be at least one of adjusting the heat source distribution of the chip, reducing the chip's power output, and increasing the physical cooling rate, or other control methods. The second high-temperature threshold is greater than the first high-temperature threshold, ensuring that cooling can be completed before subsequent contact when the temperature is too high, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the overall temperature control.

[0040] In another implementation, refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3This is a schematic diagram of the overall flow of the temperature control method of this application. When the device is started or enters the operating state, it first enters the temperature monitoring stage. The performance detection module acquires the current operating parameters of the device in real time, including the core temperature and performance level, and processes these parameters into temperature values, sending them to the temperature controller. When the device is detected to have entered a high-temperature operating range, the temperature controller can initiate forced cooling control and simultaneously enter a risk assessment stage to determine if there is a risk of contact with the user. Cooling control can also prevent burns or disruption to chip operation from subsequent contact. During the risk assessment stage, the temperature controller determines the distance between the user and the high-temperature area or the outermost position of the temperature control device. If the user distance is greater than a preset safe distance, it is considered that there is no contact risk, and the current operating state can continue without intervention. Of course, if the temperature at the heat dissipation location is still too high, the heat dissipation location can be cooled first to ensure the safety of subsequent contact. Conversely, if the user distance is detected to be less than the safe distance, the next step, contact intent recognition, is initiated. During the contact intent recognition process, if a user actively touches the device (e.g., a normal operation button or grip area), it is determined as an "active behavior," and the system allows the current state to be maintained to ensure user experience. If no active contact behavior is detected, it is determined as a "potential accidental touch risk." In this case, the temperature controller immediately sends control commands to the thermal control module, including but not limited to: reducing processor power output; increasing fan speed; adjusting heat source distribution; or performing localized cooling. Alternatively, during the contact behavior judgment process, thermal control can be implemented for situations where contact is imminent (above a preset thermal impact threshold), and thermal control can be stopped for situations where contact is about to occur (below or equal to a preset thermal impact threshold), awaiting contact. Through these measures, the temperature of hot spots on the device drops rapidly, thereby avoiding the risk of burns when the user touches the device.

[0041] Furthermore, based on the first and / or second embodiments of this application described above, a third embodiment of the temperature control method of this application is proposed. In this embodiment, the user detector includes a distance detector for detecting the distance value between the user and the operating position of the temperature control device, and a contact detector for detecting the contact state between the user and the heat dissipation position of the temperature control device. The step of acquiring user detection data collected by the user detector in response to temperature sensing data includes: Step a: In response to temperature sensing data, acquire user location data collected by the distance detector and user contact data collected by the contact detector.

[0042] In this embodiment, the user detector includes a distance detector for detecting the distance between the user and the operating position of the temperature control device, and a contact detector for detecting the contact state between the user and the heat dissipation position of the temperature control device. (Refer to...) Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is another schematic diagram of the temperature control device of this application. Distance detector 11 is installed on the outer casing of the temperature control device or in the user's operating area to identify whether the user actively contacts the device. It can be a capacitive touch sensor, pressure sensor, or conductive detection structure to identify user contact behavior. Alternatively, it can be placed on the outermost side to determine if the user is about to contact the temperature control device. Contact detector 12 is installed near the hot spot area of ​​the device (such as the air outlet or heat sink area) to detect the distance between the user and the high-temperature area. It can be an infrared ranging sensor, time-of-flight sensor, or ultrasonic ranging module to obtain distance information between the user and the heat dissipation location of the device, enabling timely heat dissipation protection. It is worth noting that the design positions of the distance detector and contact detector are not limited here. The main purpose is to use the distance detector to detect when the user approaches the temperature detection device. Then, when the user is detected to have touched the temperature detection device, the system will continue to detect whether there is a risk of contact, ensuring that cooling control has been completed by the time the user touches the temperature control device, thus ensuring the effectiveness of the overall temperature control.

[0043] In one embodiment, the temperature sensing data includes a second temperature value of a chip within the temperature control device, and the temperature control method further includes: Step b: When the second temperature value is greater than the chip's high temperature threshold, the chip is cooled based on a preset normal cooling command. The preset normal cooling command includes at least one of reducing the chip's power output, increasing the physical cooling rate, adjusting the chip's heat source distribution, and performing local cooling control on the chip.

[0044] In this embodiment, when the second temperature value is found to be greater than the chip's high-temperature threshold, the chip is cooled based on a preset normal cooling command. This preset normal cooling command includes at least one of the following: reducing the chip's power output, increasing the physical cooling rate, adjusting the chip's heat source distribution, and performing localized cooling control on the chip. This cools the chip to ensure its normal operation. Furthermore, localized cooling can be performed, such as controlling only a specific part of the chip, to efficiently protect the chip individually and thus extend the lifespan of the temperature control device.

[0045] It should be noted that the above examples are only for understanding this application and do not constitute a limitation on the temperature control method of this application. Any simple modifications based on this technical concept are within the protection scope of this application.

[0046] This application also provides a temperature control device, which includes a temperature controller and a user detector, wherein the temperature controller is connected to the user detector, as shown in the reference. Figure 5 The temperature controller includes: The data acquisition module is used to acquire user detection data collected by the user detector in response to temperature sensing data. The user detection data includes user location data and user contact data. The temperature control module is used to determine a temperature control command based on user contact data and temperature sensing data when the location value in the user location data is less than the user's safe location threshold, so as to control the temperature of the temperature control device based on the temperature control command.
