[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0032] With the development of society, smart stoves are increasingly penetrating into the lives of ordinary people, and the safety of smart stoves has also become a focus of attention. At present, in order to maintain the safety of stoves, the existing stove anti-dry burning system mainly connects to the cloud server through a mobile terminal to control the smart stove. When the mobile terminal controls the smart stove, it is necessary for the mobile terminal to maintain a connection with the cloud server for a long time. For example, in the case of network disconnection, the smart stove cannot be controlled in a timely and reliable manner. Therefore, when this cloud forwarding controls the smart stove, the external network has a greater impact on the timeliness and reliability of the smart stove control.

[0033] Moreover, the existing anti-dry-burning system of stoves can only detect a certain temperature range and is not very accurate. The temperature sensor is greatly affected by the material of the pot. For example, a clay pot can easily trigger the anti-dry-burning system, interrupting the user's normal cooking process and resulting in a poor user experience.

[0034] In addition, the existing stove anti-dry burning system has no function of reminding users in advance or early warning. It only automatically turns off the fire when the temperature reaches the threshold. At this time, the food in the pot has been burnt or even the pot has been burned, which poses a safety hazard. Moreover, this system only focuses on the automatic control function of the smart stove and has no automatic management function for other smart devices.

[0035] To facilitate understanding of this embodiment, a control system of an intelligent cooking device disclosed in an embodiment of the utility model is first introduced in detail.

[0036] See also Figure 1 As shown, the utility model provides a control system of an intelligent cooking device according to an embodiment, comprising: an intelligent cooking device 10 , a range hood 11 and a mobile terminal 12 .

[0037] The mobile terminal 12 is connected to the range hood 11 via a hotspot, and is used to send a control command to the range hood 11 when receiving a control command sent by a user.

[0038] The range hood 11 is wirelessly connected to the intelligent cooking device 10 and is used to control the intelligent cooking device 10 according to the control command when receiving the control command sent by the mobile terminal 12.

[0039] In actual application, the mobile terminal 12 is connected to the range hood 11 via a hotspot, and the range hood 11 is connected to the smart cooking device 10 via wireless communication technologies such as Bluetooth, WiFi, and 4G, so that a local area network system with the range hood as a router can be established.

[0040] Specifically, as an implementable method, the hotspot and Bluetooth of the range hood 11 can be turned on, the range hood 11 can be used as a router as a communication hub, the smart cooking device 10 can be connected to the range hood 11 via Bluetooth, and the mobile terminal 12 can be connected to the range hood 11 via the hotspot; based on this connection relationship, the range hood 11, the smart cooking device 10, and the mobile terminal 12 can form a local area network system, and the range hood 11 can control and manage the devices in the local area network. Under normal circumstances, that is, when the range hood 11 is normally connected to the mobile terminal 12, the mobile terminal 12 can directly interact with the range hood 11 after receiving the control command sent by the user, and the range hood 11 controls the smart cooking device; in some scenarios, when a person goes out or leaves, the range hood 11 will automatically take over the control of the smart cooking device and shut down some smart cooking devices with hidden dangers. Controlling the smart cooking device through the range hood 11 can realize communication within the local area network without forwarding through the cloud. The reliability of communication within the local area network is higher than that of forwarding through the cloud, and it does not rely on the influence of the external network. Even if the network is disconnected, the range hood can be controlled, ensuring that the range hood can control some devices in time.

[0041] See also Figure 2 As shown, in a possible implementation, the intelligent cooking device 10 may be an intelligent cooker 100 .

[0042] See also Figure 3 As shown, in a possible implementation, the intelligent cooking device 10 may also be an intelligent stove 101.

[0043] See also Figure 4 As shown, in a possible implementation, the above-mentioned smart cooking device 10 can be a smart pot 100 and a smart stove 101, that is, the range hood 11 can control multiple smart cooking devices 10.

[0044] It should be noted that, according to different usage requirements, the above-mentioned intelligent cooking device 10 includes but is not limited to intelligent pots, intelligent stoves, etc.

[0045] See also Figure 5 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the mobile terminal 12 may be a mobile phone 120 .

[0046] See also Figure 6 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the mobile terminal 12 may also be a tablet computer 121 .

[0047] The control system of the above-mentioned intelligent cooking device includes: intelligent cooking device, range hood and mobile terminal; the mobile terminal is wirelessly connected to the range hood, and when receiving the control command sent by the user, the control command is sent to the range hood; the range hood is connected to the intelligent cooking device via Bluetooth, and when receiving the control command sent by the mobile terminal, the intelligent cooking device is controlled according to the control command. The control system connects the intelligent cooking device and the mobile terminal to the range hood through simple network distribution and networking operations, and a local area network can be formed around the range hood. The communication within the local area network is more reliable than cloud forwarding and does not rely on external network influences. Even if the network is disconnected or the user is out, the range hood can centrally control the intelligent cooking device, ensuring the timeliness and reliability of control, avoiding accidents, improving the safety of kitchen appliances, and enhancing the user's product experience.

[0048] For further information, see Figure 7 As shown, the mobile terminal 12 is also used to send the control command to the range hood 11 through the preset cloud server 13 when receiving the control command sent by the user;

[0049] The range hood 11 is also used to automatically control the intelligent cooking device 10 when no control command is received from the cloud server 13 within a preset time period.

[0050] In actual application, the range hood 11 is provided with a display screen 111 for receiving a WiFi password input by a user so that the cloud server 13 can communicate with the range hood 11 .

[0051] Specifically, the user can enter the WiFi password on the display screen 111 to connect to the cloud server 13, so that the display screen 111 and the cloud server 13 can communicate over the network, and then turn on the hotspot and Bluetooth of the range hood 11. Then the user can operate the smart cooking device 10 to turn on the Bluetooth of the smart cooking device 10 (such as an open flame stir-fry pan, a smart stove, etc.), and then the range hood 11 can be connected to the smart cooking device 10 with Bluetooth turned on via Bluetooth.

[0052] Similarly, after turning on the hotspot and Bluetooth of the range hood 11, the hotspot account and password of the range hood 11 can also be entered on the mobile terminal 12 (such as the mobile phone 120) so that the display screen 111 can be connected to the mobile terminal 12 via the hotspot.

[0053] In actual application, the range hood 11 is connected to the cloud server 13 via WiFi, realizing a range hood central control screen system that can control and manage the devices in the local area network. Under normal circumstances, the range hood can control the device and display the status of the device. In some scenarios, when people go out or leave, the range hood will automatically take over the control of the device and shut down some devices with hidden dangers.

[0054] The mobile terminal 12 may be installed with a range hood manager APP; the cloud server 13, the smart cooking device 10, the range hood 11, and the range hood manager APP in the mobile terminal 12 may work together to ensure the safety of the smart cooking device 10.

[0055] Specifically, in certain scenarios, such as when the user is out or the network is disconnected, the mobile terminal 12 can establish a communication connection with the cloud server 13 to achieve network communication, and then the network cloud server 13 can ensure communication between the range hood 11 and the mobile terminal 12. When the user opens the range hood manager APP, the range hood 11 can send a notification message to the range hood manager App, and the user can also reply to the message to the range hood 11 on the range hood manager App.

[0056] When the user goes out or the network is disconnected, the range hood 11 can remind the user through the cloud server whether to turn off the smart cooking device 10. If no response is received from the user for a period of time, the range hood 11 can automatically manage the smart cooking device 10 in the local area network.

[0057] For example, once a user opens the range hood manager App and leaves, he or she may receive a reminder message from the range hood. The user can decide on the App whether to reply to the range hood message. If the range hood 11 does not receive a response from the user for a period of time, it may automatically control the smart cooking device 10 in the management local area network.

[0058] When the user goes online again, the App can also receive relevant information about the automatic control management process of the range hood 11, and the user can also choose whether to cancel the automatic control function of the range hood on the App.

[0059] In actual application, the range hood 11 is also used to obtain status information of the intelligent cooking device 10 and send the status information to the mobile terminal 12.

[0060] Specifically, the display screen 111 serves as a central control system, which can check the working status of the devices in the local area network and can also control the devices in the local area network to work or stop.

[0061] Based on the above-mentioned embodiment of the control system of the intelligent cooking device, the embodiment of the utility model also provides a range hood butler system, see Figure 8 As shown, it includes: a smart home appliance 14 and a control system of any of the above items.

[0062] In actual application, the smart home appliance 14 and the range hood 11 in the control system are connected through a hotspot to realize network communication between the range hood 11 and the smart home appliance 14. Specifically, after turning on the hotspot and Bluetooth of the range hood 11, the user can operate the smart home appliance 14 to input the hotspot account and password of the range hood 11 on the smart home appliance 14, so that the display screen 111 can be connected to the smart home appliance 14 through the hotspot.

[0063] For further information, see Fig. 9 As shown, in a possible implementation, the smart home appliance 14 may be a smart dishwasher 140, a smart disinfection cabinet 141 and / or a smart all-in-one machine 142; that is, the smart home appliance 14 may be one or more of the smart dishwasher 140, the smart disinfection cabinet 141 and the smart all-in-one machine 142. The range hood butler system can not only realize the automatic control and management function of smart cooking equipment, but also realize the automatic control and management function of smart home appliances such as smart dishwashers, smart disinfection cabinets, and smart all-in-one machines.

[0064] It should be noted that, according to different usage requirements, the above-mentioned smart home appliances 14 include but are not limited to smart dishwashers, smart disinfection cabinets, and smart all-in-one machines.
