[0052] Embodiment 1
[0053] Reference Figure 1 , this embodiment provides a cooking device, including: a main unit 1, a feeding device 2, and a feeding pipeline. Among them, reference Figure 2 , Figures 4 to 8 , the main unit 1 includes a supporting member, a pot body member, and a weighing sensor 3. In an embodiment of the present application, reference Figures 6 to 8 , the supporting member includes the feet 15 of the main unit 1, and the entire structure of the main unit 1 can be supported on the tabletop through the feet 15.
[0054] The pot body member includes the housing 11 of the main unit 1, and the housing 11 can be used to cover the outer surface of the main unit 1, thereby improving the aesthetic appearance of the cooking device. As Figure 4 shown, the pot body member further includes a supporting portion 14, and the supporting portion 14 is the bracket structure inside the main unit 1 and can be used to install various components of the main unit 1. A pot body 12 is arranged on the supporting portion 14. It can be understood that the pot body 12 is the main structure for cooking. As Figure 4 shown, a heating module 120 is arranged below the pot body 12, and the heating module 120 can be used to heat the pot body 12, and the user needs to put food ingredients into the pot body 12 for cooking.
[0055] The pot body component further includes a lid assembly 13. Specifically, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the lid assembly 13 includes a turning arm 131, a lid body 130 disposed on the turning arm 131, and a feeding port 133 disposed on the turning arm 131 and / or the lid body 130. The feeding port 133 extends from the turning arm 131 to penetrate through the lid body 130. Referring to Figure 9 , the turning arm 131 is hinged to the support portion 14 through a rotating shaft 132, and drives the lid body 130 to move to cover or separate from the pot body 12 during the rotation relative to the support portion 14. The user can add ingredients into the pot body 12 when the lid body 130 rotates to separate from the pot body 12; the cooking device can perform cooking when the lid body 130 covers the pot body 12, and the lid body 130 can prevent splashing during the cooking process. In addition, when the lid body 130 is covered, the feeding port 133 is located directly above the pot body 12, so that seasonings can be automatically added into the pot body 12 through the feeding port 133, improving the user experience. The feeding port 133 can be a component installed on the lid body 130 or the turning arm 131, or a component installed on both the turning arm 131 and the lid body 130. As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the feeding port 133 is installed on both the turning arm 131 and the lid body 130, and the feeding port 133 extends from the turning arm 131 to penetrate through the lid body 130, so as to be able to put seasonings into the pot body 12.
[0056] As Figure 5 shown, the weighing sensor 3 has a fixed end 302 and a force-receiving end 301. The fixed end 302 is connected to the support member, and the force-receiving end 301 is connected to the pot body component. In an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 5 , the support member may include a lower support frame 32, and the pot body component may include an upper support frame 31. The lower support frame 32 can be fixedly connected to one side of the fixed end 302 below the weighing sensor 3 through a gasket, so as to fix the support member on the fixed end 302 of the weighing sensor 3; the upper support frame 31 can be fixedly connected to one side of the force-receiving end 301 above the weighing sensor 3 through a gasket, so as to fix the pot body component on the force-receiving end 301 of the weighing sensor 3. The weighing sensor 3 adopted in the present application is a cantilever weighing sensor, which has a small volume and high weighing accuracy, and the weighing sensor 3 occupies a small internal space of the main machine 1, so that enough space can be left for arranging other structures.
[0057] The load cell 3 is used to weigh the weight of the pot body component. Specifically, the load cell 3 can be supported on the support component and deformed under the pressure of the upper pot body component. According to the degree of deformation of the load cell 3, the control unit in the main machine can obtain the current weight of the pot body component. As described above, the pot body component includes the pot body 12. When adding ingredients into the pot body 12, the load cell 3 can sense the change in the total weight of the pot body component, and thus the weight of the ingredients can be measured.
[0058] It should be noted that there should be no rigid connection or unstable connection between the pot body component and the support component, that is, there should be no force transmission between the upper support frame 31 and the lower support frame 32. Otherwise, force interference or cancellation will occur, resulting in inaccurate measurement by the load cell 3 and making it difficult to perform accurate weighing. There is an assembly gap between the pot body component and the support component, so as to ensure that the pot body component is completely supported on the load cell 3, and further ensure the accuracy of weighing. It can be understood that when an external force is applied to the pot body component, it will affect the accuracy of weighing; while when an external force is applied to the support component, it will not affect the weighing.
[0059] In an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 4 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8 and Figure 14 , two load cells 3 can be provided, and the two load cells 3 are spaced apart in the first direction. As Figure 14 shown, the first direction can be the extending direction of the turning arm 131 when the cover body 130 is closed. Or as Figure 4 shown, the first direction is the arrangement direction of the main machine 1 and the feeding device 2. The two load cells 3 are arranged along the first direction, so that one of the load cells 3 or the lower support frame 32 connected to the load cell 3 can be arranged close to the feeding device 2, which is convenient for the assembly of the feeding device 2 and the lower support frame 32, and the vibration generated by the feeding device 2 will not be transmitted to the pot body component to interfere with the accuracy of the load cell 3 weighing the pot body component. The other load cell 3 is spaced apart in the first direction, especially at both ends of the main machine 1 or the pot body component, so as to support the weight of the entire pot body component. The two load cells 3 can be connected together through the sensor connection line 33 to jointly perform weighing. The two lower support frames 32 of the two load cells 3 can be respectively installed on the two front feet 15 and the two rear feet 15 of the main machine 1, and the two load cells 3 can be respectively located between the two front feet 15 and between the two rear feet 15; the pot body component can be stably supported on the two load cells 3.
[0060] In addition, referring to Figure 15, a second direction that forms an angle with the first direction in the horizontal plane is defined. Preferably, the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. The width of the main body 1 in the second direction is less than the width in the first direction. Preferably, the main body 1 can have a minimum width in the second direction. Specifically, the length of the main body 1 in the first direction can be approximately 400 mm, and the dimension in the second direction can be approximately 300 mm. The fixed ends 302 and the force-receiving ends 301 of the two load cells 3 arranged at intervals in the first direction extend in the second direction, so that the lower support frame 32 and the upper support frame 31 respectively fixed to the fixed ends 302 and the force-receiving ends 301 also extend in the second direction. In this way, the lengths of the lower support frame 32 and the upper support frame 31 are shortened as much as possible, the processing difficulty is reduced, and the processing cost is reduced.
[0061] Moreover, in order to make the weighing more accurate, in an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 5 the view direction, the installation directions of the two load cells 3 are opposite, that is, one upper support frame 31 contacts the left side of one load cell 3, and the other upper support frame 31 contacts the right side of the other load cell 3. When under pressure, one load cell 3 deforms counterclockwise, and the other load cell 3 deforms clockwise, and the overall force is more balanced, avoiding bias.
[0062] Referring to Figure 14 , a control module 6 is provided on the support portion 14. The control module 6 can be used to control the cooking device to perform cooking work. For example: referring to Figure 15 , the control module may include a controller 61. The controller 61 can be connected to the heating module 120 to control the heating module 120 to heat the pot body 12. As Figure 14 shown, the control module 6 is located below the pot body 12 and between the two load cells 3. The control module 6 is located between the two load cells 3, thus realizing the rational use of the internal space of the main body 1, and making the center of gravity of the main body 1 centered, and the whole is more stable. Such a layout has the advantages of saving space and low cost. Moreover, compared with the scheme of a single load cell 3, setting two load cells 3 improves the weighing accuracy. The two load cells 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the bottom of the main body 1, avoiding the problem of unilateral suspension and shaking, resulting in inaccurate measurement. The present application does not specifically limit the number and arrangement mode of the load cells 3. One, three, four or more load cells 3 can also be provided.
[0063] Referring to Figure 1, the pot body component of the cooking device includes an input component 18, and the input component 18 can specifically be structures such as a touch screen, buttons, and knobs; the input component 18 sends a feeding instruction under pressure to determine the target feeding weight of the target condiment. The input component 18, the pot body 14, and the feeding device 2 can be arranged in sequence in the first direction. Among them, the side where the input component 18 is located can face the user, and the side where the feeding device 2 is located can be away from the user. It can be understood that during the user's use of the cooking device, it is necessary to frequently control through the input component 18, but during the cooking process, the user basically does not need to replenish the condiments into the feeding device 2. Therefore, the input component 18 is arranged on the front side close to the user, and the feeding device 2 is arranged on the rear side away from the user, which further optimizes and rationalizes the structure of the cooking device and improves the user experience.
[0064] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the feeding device 2 is used to supply materials to the pot body component. The feeding device 2 includes a condiment storage device and a power mechanism. The condiment in the condiment storage device flows to the pot body component through the feeding pipeline under the driving action of the power mechanism. Specifically, the condiment storage device can be a condiment bottle 21, and the power mechanism can be a peristaltic pump 23. The feeding device 2 includes a box shell 24 and at least one condiment bottle 21 arranged inside the box shell 24. The output port of the condiment bottle 21 can be communicated with one end of the feeding pipe 22 inside the box shell 24. When feeding is required, under the action of the peristaltic pump 23, the other end of the feeding pipe 22 can transport the condiment stored in the condiment bottle 21 to the outside of the feeding device 2.
[0065] As Figure 3 shown, the feeding device 2 can have multiple condiment bottles 21. For example, the feeding device 2 in this embodiment includes five condiment bottles, and the five condiment bottles can be respectively used to store different condiments, such as respectively used to store: cooking oil, salt water, sugar water, soy sauce, and vinegar. The specific quantity and content of the condiment bottle 21 in this application are not limited. It should be noted that in this application, the pipeline pumping method is used to transport the condiments. Therefore, the condiments stored in the condiment bottle 21 are preferably in a liquid state to facilitate feeding.
[0066] The main machine 1 determines the weight of the material supplied by the feeding device 2 based on the weight of the pot body component weighed by the weighing sensor 3, and sends a signal to stop feeding to the feeding device 2 based on the weight of the material supplied by the feeding device 2. That is to say, the weight of the material supplied by the feeding device 2 is configured to be determined by the weight of the pot body component weighed by the weighing sensor 3. Specifically, the main machine 1 can send a feeding signal to the feeding device 2, so that the feeding device 2 starts to feed the main machine 1; the condiment can be conveyed to the feeding port 133 of the main machine 1 and enter the pot body 12 through the feeding port 133; the weighing sensor 3 in the main machine 1 can calculate and determine the weight of the supplied material according to the change value of the weight of the pot body component. When the main machine 1 knows that the feeding weight reaches the target weight, it can send a signal to stop feeding to the feeding device 2, thereby realizing the precise control of the feeding weight.
[0067] Since the addition amount of the condiment is usually only a few grams, and a slight deviation in the addition amount of the condiment may cause a great difference in the taste of the finished dish, it is necessary to ensure that each weighing is accurate enough, so as to ensure that the calculated feeding weight is accurate enough.
[0068] The feeding device 2 can feed the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline. Since the feeding port 133 is located on the cover body 130, that is, on the pot body component, if the feeding device 2 is directly connected to the feeding port 133, during the feeding process of the feeding device 2, the vibration of the peristaltic pump 23 and the pulling force of the feeding pipeline during the feeding process will cause external forces on the pot body component, resulting in inaccurate weighing and difficult control of the addition amount of the condiment. To solve this problem, the feeding device 2 is in clearance fit with the pot body component, so as to avoid the vibration of the peristaltic pump 23 and the pulling force of the feeding pipeline from being transmitted to the pot body component, thus ensuring the accuracy of weighing.
[0069] Functional components are provided on the main machine 1, and the pot body 12 and the functional components can be arranged in the first direction. The functional components can include at least one of the first connection part, the input component 18, and a part of the feeding pipeline. That is to say, the first connection part, the input component 18, and a part of the feeding pipeline can all be arranged in the first direction with the pot body 12. In an embodiment of the present application, a first connection part is provided on the main machine 1. Specifically, the first connection part belongs to the functional components, and the pot body 12 and the first connection part can be arranged in the first direction, thereby further optimizing the specific layout of the cooking equipment main machine 1. Among them, the pot body 12 is located on the front side close to the user, and the first connection part is located on the rear side far from the user, so as to facilitate the user to add ingredients into the pot body 12; the first connection part is used to assemble the feeding device 2. As described above, during the cooking process, the user basically does not need to supplement the condiment into the feeding device 2, so the first connection part can be arranged at the rear side position far from the user. A second connection part is provided on the feeding device 2, and the feeding device 2 is connected to the main machine 1 through the first connection part and the second connection part.
[0070] In an embodiment of the present application, the first connecting portion is provided on the support member. It can be understood that when the feeding device 2 feeds materials to the main machine 1, the peristaltic pump 23 will vibrate. In order to prevent the vibration from being transmitted to the pot body member of the main machine 1 through the second connecting portion and the first connecting portion, thereby causing problems such as inaccurate weighing, there is a predetermined gap between the first connecting portion and the pot body member of the present application. The predetermined gap enables the vibration of the feeding device 2 not to be further transmitted to the pot body member after being transmitted to the first connecting portion, thus ensuring the accuracy of weighing.
[0071] Specifically, referring to Figures 2 to 4 , one of the first connecting portion is the male plug 20 and the female socket 10, and the second connecting portion is the other of the male plug 20 and the female socket 10. The male plug 20 is detachably inserted into the female socket 10. In this embodiment, the first connecting portion is the female socket 10 provided on the support member, and the second connecting portion is the male plug 20 provided on the feeding device 2. The male plug 20 protrudes from the outer shell 24 of the material box and has a shape adapted to the female socket 10. A quick-insert interface 201 is provided on the male plug 20, and the quick-insert interface 201 can communicate with the output port of the feeding pipe 22 inside the feeding device 2, so as to feed materials outward through the quick-insert interface 201.
[0072] A quick-insert joint 54 is provided on the female socket 10. When the male plug 20 is inserted into the female socket 10, a rigid connection is formed between the feeding device 2 and the support member of the main machine 1. The quick-insert joint 54 can extend into the quick-insert interface 201, and the seasoning can flow from the quick-insert interface 201 into the quick-insert joint 54. The quick-insert joint 54 can be a part of the feeding pipeline, and the feeding pipeline is connected to the feeding device 2 through the quick-insert joint 54. The seasoning enters the main machine 1 through the quick-insert joint 54 and is continuously conveyed to the feeding port 133 through the feeding pipeline inside the main machine 1 for feeding.
[0073] In the present application, the male plug 20 is detachably inserted into the female socket 10, forming a rigid connection between the feeding device 2 and the support member of the main machine 1. The feeding device 2 can be directly connected to the support member of the main machine 1 for feeding, without the need to additionally provide a flexible feeding pipe between the feeding device 2 and the main machine 1, thus simplifying the accessories of the cooking equipment and reducing the cost. The feeding device 2 is connected to the support member of the main machine 1, thereby avoiding interference with weighing.
[0074] One end of the feeding pipeline of the present application extends to communicate with the feeding device 2 through the first connecting part and the second connecting part, and the other end extends to communicate with the pot body member. Specifically, since the first connecting part is arranged on the supporting member, the feeding pipeline can be partially fixed on the supporting member. One end of it extends from the supporting member through the first connecting part and the second connecting part to communicate with the feeding device 2, and the other end extends from the supporting member to communicate with the pot body member. It should be noted that the feeding pipeline may not be a complete pipeline, but a feeding path formed by sequentially connecting several joints and several pipelines. The feeding pipeline of the present application connects the feeding device 2 to the supporting member of the main machine 1, so that the vibration of the feeding device 2 during the feeding process and the pulling force of the feeding pipeline during the feeding process can only be transmitted to the supporting member, and will not affect the pot body member, thus ensuring the accuracy of weighing seasonings.
[0075] The present application provides a cooking device in which the static weighing of the main machine 1 and the feeding weighing share the same weighing sensor 3. Specifically, the weighing sensor 3 in the main machine 1 can weigh the weight of the pot body member, so as to weigh the food materials in the pot, thereby realizing the static weighing function of the main machine 1. The feeding device 2 can feed materials to the pot body member through the feeding pipeline. Specifically, the feeding device 2 is connected to the main machine 1 through the first connecting part and the second connecting part; since the feeding pipeline is partially fixed on the supporting member, and there is a predetermined gap between the first connecting part arranged on the supporting member and the pot body member, the feeding pipeline will only apply force to the supporting member of the main machine during the feeding process and will not apply force to the pot body member. In this way, the feeding process will not affect the weighing, and the weight of the fed materials can be determined by the weight of the pot body member weighed by the weighing sensor 3. The present application realizes the functions of static weighing of the main machine 1 and seasoning weighing by using the weighing sensor 3 in the main machine 1 at the same time, reduces the cost, and the user does not need to weigh the seasonings separately, improving the user experience.
[0076] In an embodiment of the present application, a plurality of quick-insert interfaces 201 may be provided on the male plug 20, and a plurality of quick-insert connectors 54 may be provided on the female socket 10. For example, five quick-insert interfaces 201 are provided on the male plug 20 of this embodiment, and five quick-insert connectors 54 are provided on the female socket 10, and the five quick-insert connectors 54 are respectively adapted to the five quick-insert interfaces 201. As described above, the feeding device 2 of this embodiment includes five seasoning bottles 21, and different seasonings are stored in each seasoning bottle 21. In order to ensure that there is no flavor mixing during feeding and to ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of the feeding pipe 22, a separate feeding pipe 22 may be provided for each seasoning bottle 21; the five quick-insert interfaces 201 can be respectively communicated with the five feeding pipes 22, so as to feed five kinds of seasonings into the five quick-insert connectors 54 respectively. The present application does not limit the specific number of the quick-insert interfaces 201 and the quick-insert connectors 54, as long as the number and position of the quick-insert interfaces 201 and the quick-insert connectors 54 match each other.
[0077] In an embodiment of the present application, the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion jointly have a degree of freedom to move within a predetermined gap. Specifically, the male plug 20 and the female socket 10 plugged together can jointly move within the range of the predetermined gap, so that the male plug 20 and the female socket 10 plugged together jointly form an integral structure independent of the pot body member, and the interaction occurring inside the integral structure will not be transmitted to the pot body member, but can be separated by the predetermined gap. As Figure 7 shown, the first connecting portion includes a connecting portion body and a carrier seat 19. The connecting portion body is installed on the carrier seat 19 and is docked with the second connecting portion. The first connecting portion in this embodiment is the female socket 10. The female socket 10 includes a female plug body 100 and a carrier seat 19. The female plug body 100 is connected to the bottom feet 15 through the carrier seat 19. The carrier seat 19 and the pot body member are separately arranged. Specifically, the predetermined gap can be arranged between the carrier seat 19 and the pot body assembly. Further, the predetermined gap is arranged between the carrier seat 19 and the housing 11, thereby avoiding the vibration of the feeding device 2 being transmitted to the pot body member through the female plug body 100 and the carrier seat 19 and avoiding affecting the weighing.
[0078] In an embodiment of the present application, there is a degree of freedom of movement between the connecting portion body and the carrier seat 19. Further, the connecting portion body and the second connecting portion plugged thereon jointly have a degree of freedom of movement relative to the carrier seat 19, wherein the movement range is within the predetermined gap. As described above, when the first connecting portion is the female socket 10 and the second connecting portion is the male plug 20, the male plug 20 can be fixedly arranged on the feeding device 2, and the female plug body 100 can have a certain degree of freedom of movement relative to the carrier seat 19; it is also possible to make both the male plug 20 and the female plug body 100 have a certain degree of freedom of movement. Similarly, it can be known that when the first connecting portion is the male plug 20 and the second connecting portion is the female socket 10, it is also possible to make the male plug 20 and / or the female socket 10 have a certain degree of freedom of movement. The movement range of the female plug body 100 relative to the carrier seat 19 does not exceed the range limited by the predetermined gap, so that the acting force generated during its movement can be blocked by the predetermined gap and will not be transmitted to the pot body member and will not affect the weighing.
[0079] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the connecting portion body is installed on the carrier seat 19 through a limiting component, and has a degree of freedom of movement in the height direction under the limitation of the limiting component. Refer to Figure 13 , the limiting component can be a screw 104 with a gasket. The female plug body 100 can be installed on the carrier seat 19 through the screw 104. Installation holes can be provided on the carrier seat 19, and the diameter of the installation holes is slightly larger than that of the screw. As Figure 13As shown, there is a certain movement gap 105 between the screw 104 and the through hole, whereby the female plug body 100 can move up and down relative to the carrier base 19. Among them, the movement gap 105 is within the predetermined gap. It can be understood that during the production process, there may be a certain height deviation between the quick-insert interface 201 of the male plug 20 and the quick-insert joint 54 of the female plug body 100. If the two are plugged together in this situation, the host 1 will be stressed in the height direction, which is not conducive to accurate weighing. For this reason, the female plug body 100 with a certain movement space is provided in this embodiment. When the quick-insert interface 201 and the quick-insert joint 54 cannot be accurately docked in height, the height position of the female plug body 100 can be slightly adjusted through the movement gap 105, thereby avoiding the deviation caused by production, and the host 1 will not be subjected to external force in the height direction, ensuring the accuracy of weighing.
[0080] In an embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 7 and Figure 12 , the pot body component includes a housing 11 provided on the support portion 14 and a bottom plate 16 located at the bottom of the support portion 14. An opening 111 for cooperating with the first connection portion is provided on the side wall of the housing 11. There is a first gap 101 between the side wall of the first connection portion and the inner wall of the opening 111, and there is a second gap 102 between the bottom of the first connection portion and the bottom plate 16. The first gap 101 communicates with the second gap 102. During the process of the user using the cooking device, after unplugging and plugging the feeding device 2, it is easy for seasonings or oil and water to remain at the female socket 10. As described above, since there must be a gap between the female socket 10 belonging to the support member and the housing 11 belonging to the pot body component, the liquid remaining at the female socket 10 is likely to flow into the gap during the downward flow, resulting in contamination inside the host 1 and making it difficult for the user to clean it. For this reason, in this embodiment, the female socket 10 is provided at the lower position of the host 1, and there is a second gap 102 between the female socket 10 and the bottom plate 16, that is, a second gap 102 is formed between the bottom of the female socket 10 and the bottom of the bottom plate 16. The second gap 102 communicates with the first gap 101. The remaining liquid will not flow into the host 1 through the gap during the downward flow, but will flow all the way down to the bottom of the female socket 10 or the bottom of the bottom plate 16 until it drips onto the tabletop, facilitating the user to clean.
[0081] The above describes the specific structure and connection method of part of the feeding pipeline between the host 1 and the feeding device 2. Next, the specific structure and connection method of part of the feeding pipeline inside the host 1 will be specifically described.
[0082] In existing cooking devices with an automatic feeding function, the feeding device 2 and the main body 1 are usually connected by a hose. To simplify the layout of the feeding pipeline in the main body, the hose is usually connected to the turning arm 131 of the main body 1. The hose can bend as the turning arm 131 rotates. In this way, only the feeding pipeline needs to be arranged on the turning arm 131, and no feeding pipeline needs to be arranged in the main body 1 below the turning arm 131, nor does it need to consider the arrangement of the feeding pipeline at the rotating shaft 132.
[0083] In this application, the feeding device 2 and the main body 1 are directly plugged in. The first connecting part, the second connecting part, and the feeding device 2 cannot rotate as the turning arm 131 rotates. Therefore, the opening 111 is located on the housing 11, and the feeding pipeline needs to extend from the first connecting part through the rotating shaft 132 and the turning arm 131 to the feeding port 133.
[0084] In an embodiment of this application, referring to Figure 4 , Figures 9 to 11 , the feeding pipeline includes a first joint assembly 53 connected to the support part 14 and adjacent to the turning arm 131, and also includes a first feeding pipe 51 located between the first joint assembly 53 and the feeding port 133. The feeding pipeline further includes a second feeding pipe 52 located between the first joint assembly 53 and the first connecting part. One end of the second feeding pipe 52 is connected to the first joint assembly 53, and the other end extends towards the first connecting part to be connected to a corresponding pipe joint provided on the first connecting part, that is, connected to the quick - plug joint 54 on the female socket 10. The seasoning from the feeding device 2 enters the main body 1 through the quick - plug joint 54, and then flows to the feeding port 133 through the second feeding pipe 52, the first joint assembly 53, and the first feeding pipe 51 in sequence, thereby realizing feeding.
[0085] One end of the second feeding pipe 52 is connected to the support member (the end communicating with the quick - plug joint 54), and the other end is connected to the pot body member (the end communicating with the first joint assembly 53). It should be noted that during the process of transporting the seasoning, the vibration of the feeding device 2 basically will not be conducted upward to the first joint assembly 53 through the flexible second feeding pipe 52, and the pot body member will not be affected by the pulling force of the pipeline inside the main body 1. It can be seen that the feeding pipeline of this application can simultaneously realize automatic feeding and weighing the seasoning through the weighing sensor 3 inside the main body 1.
[0086] In an embodiment of this application, referring to Figure 11, the feeding pipeline further includes a second joint assembly 55, and the second joint assembly 55 can be arranged at the upstream position of the feeding port 133. One end of the first feeding pipe 51 is communicated with the first joint assembly 53, and the other end is communicated with the second joint assembly 55, so as to convey the seasoning to the feeding port 133 through the second joint assembly 55. In this embodiment, a separate feeding pipeline is provided for each seasoning, but finally all will converge to the same feeding port 133. Therefore, the second joint assembly 55 with multiple input ends and one output end can be set in this application, so as to converge the ends of multiple feeding pipelines together.
[0087] In an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 10 shown, a sleeve 17 can be arranged on the supporting part 14, and the sleeve 17 can be sleeved at the connection position of the first joint assembly 53 and the first feeding pipe 51. The sleeve 17 strengthens the fixing effect on the first feeding pipe 51. In addition, during the rotation of the rotating shaft 132, the first feeding pipe 51 will deform accordingly, and thus certain alternating stress will be generated. The fixing of the sleeve 17 can effectively prevent the first joint assembly 53 from being damaged and prolong the service life of the first joint assembly 53.
[0088] In an embodiment of the present application, the position of the first joint assembly 53 for connecting with the second feeding pipe 52 is arranged below the rotating shaft 132. It can be understood that during the rotation of the rotating shaft 132 driving the turning arm 131 and the cover body 130, some feeding pipelines in the main machine 1 will deform and shift with the rotation, which may have a certain impact on weighing. In this application, the input joint of the first joint assembly 53 (that is, the joint for connecting with the second feeding pipe 52) is arranged below the rotating shaft 132, so as to ensure that the second feeding pipe 52 is completely located below the rotating shaft 132. The mutual spatial position of the first joint assembly 53 and the quick-connect joint 54 will not be affected by the rotation of the turning arm 131, so that the shape of the second feeding pipe 52 is fixed, and the stress of the second feeding pipe 52 on the weighing sensor 3 always remains stable, avoiding the impact on weighing.
[0089] For the first feeding pipe 51 connected to the output joint above the first joint assembly 53, the rotation of the rotating shaft 132 will inevitably drive the first feeding pipe 51 to move. Since the first feeding pipe 51 belongs to the pot body component, the movement of the first feeding pipe 51 is the movement inside the pot body component and will not apply an external force to the pot body component, so it basically will not affect weighing. However, if the first feeding pipe 51 deforms excessively during the following rotation, or in the case of multiple first feeding pipes 51, the multiple first feeding pipes 51 may squeeze each other during the movement, which will cause the feeding process to be unsmooth. Based on this, the installation position of the first feeding pipe 51 needs to be designed.
[0090] In an embodiment of the present application, the first feeding pipe 51 includes a first pipe section extending along the length direction of the turning arm 131, a second pipe section extending along the axial direction of the first joint assembly 53, and a third pipe section connecting the first pipe section and the second pipe section and being bent. The length direction of the turning arm 131 is the horizontal direction, the axial extension direction of the first joint assembly 53 is the vertical direction, and the third pipe section can connect the first pipe section extending along the horizontal direction and the second pipe section extending along the vertical direction. As Figure 10 shown, the third pipe section is bent in an approximately right-angled shape.
[0091] Referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the third pipe section is located at a position corresponding to the rotating shaft 132 in the height direction (i.e., a position substantially flush with the height of the rotating shaft 132), or is located at a position higher than the rotating shaft 132. That is to say, the third pipe section of the first feeding pipe 51 is not lower than the height of the rotation axis. This ensures that the first feeding pipe 51 has sufficient movement space and deformation space during the rotation following the turning arm 131.
[0092] In an embodiment of the present application, at least two first feeding pipes 51 are provided, and the first joint assembly 53 at least includes a set of first pipe joints and second pipe joints arranged in sequence in the direction away from the feeding port 133. Among them, the first pipe joint and the second pipe joint are arranged in the direction away from the support member in sequence, and the corresponding first feeding pipes 51 provided on the first pipe joint and the second pipe joint extend toward the feeding port 133 through the corresponding third pipe sections. Further, at least two sets of first pipe joints and second pipe joints are provided, and at least two sets of first pipe joints and second pipe joints are arranged at intervals in the rotation axis direction of the turning arm 131.
[0093] As described above, since this embodiment is provided with five seasoning bottles 21, five quick-insert interfaces 201, and five quick-insert joints 54, correspondingly, the second feeding pipe 52, the pipe joints on the first joint assembly 53, the first feeding pipe 51, and the pipe joints on the second joint assembly 55 can also be provided with five. The present application does not limit the specific number of the second feeding pipe 52, the pipe joints on the first joint assembly 53, the first feeding pipe 51, and the pipe joints on the second joint assembly 55, as long as they are matched with each other.
[0094] Referring to Figure 10 and Figure 11, the five first feeding pipes 51 can be divided into two groups arranged at intervals in the direction of the rotation axis of the turning arm 131, one group includes two pipe joints, and the other group includes three pipe joints; multiple pipe joints in the same group are arranged at intervals in the direction away from the feeding port 133 and are successively away from the support member, that is to say, the farther away from the feeding port 133, the higher the position of the pipe joint, and there is a height difference between multiple pipe joints in the same group.
[0095] It can be understood that the rotation radii of the first feeding pipes 51 connected to different pipe joints are different when the rotating shaft 132 rotates. Specifically, the first feeding pipe 51 connected to the pipe joint farthest from the feeding port 133 has the largest rotation radius when the rotating shaft 132 rotates; the first feeding pipe 51 connected to the pipe joint closest to the feeding port 133 has the smallest rotation radius when the rotating shaft 132 rotates. In order to keep the deformation degrees of multiple first feeding pipes 51 basically consistent during rotation, avoid excessive deformation and mutual extrusion, in this application, multiple pipe joints on the first joint assembly 53 are set to different heights, and a height difference is formed between each pipe joint, so as to leave enough deformation space for the five first feeding pipes 51.
[0096] In addition, by setting multiple pipe joints on the first joint assembly 53 to different heights, the distances from each pipe joint to the second joint assembly 55 are adjusted to be the same, so that multiple first feeding pipes 51 have the same length. This makes the cooking equipment in this application easier to produce, and the lengths of multiple first feeding pipes 51 are exactly the same, which is convenient for the staff to assemble.
[0097] The specific structure and connection method of the feeding pipeline are described above. Next, the circuit connection method of the cooking equipment will be introduced in detail. It should be noted that the cooking equipment needs to plug the plug into an external socket for power supply. Since the control module 6 is part of the pot body component, the power cord in the prior art cooking equipment is usually also set as part of the pot body component. When the user pulls the power cord, and after plugging the plug into an external fixed facility, the weighing sensor 3 will be interfered by external forces, resulting in inaccurate weighing.
[0098] In an embodiment of this application, refer to Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 14, a control module 6 is provided on the support part 14. The main body 1 of the cooking device includes a circuit assembly, and part of the circuit assembly extends outside the main body 1 and is connected to an external power supply. The circuit assembly may include various circuits such as a power cord 41 and a material box connection line 42. During the use of the cooking device by the user, it is easy to touch or involve the circuit assembly, thereby interfering with the accuracy of the weighing sensor 3 and resulting in a large feeding error. To solve the above problems, the circuit assembly is provided with a fixing position on the support member, and the circuit assembly is fixed on the support member through the fixing position, thereby preventing the circuit assembly from transmitting vibration to the pot body member. Specifically, the circuit assembly may extend from the fixing position to the support part 14 and be connected to the control module 6. Since the first connecting part is provided on the support member, the fixing position may be provided on the first connecting part; as described above, there is a predetermined gap sufficient to eliminate vibration between the first connecting part and the pot body member, so setting the fixing position on the first connecting part enables the vibration of the circuit assembly to be transmitted only to the first connecting part and will not continue to be transmitted inward to the pot body member, avoiding affecting the weighing. Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, the fixing position may also be provided on other structures of the support member.
[0099] The circuit assembly may include a power cord 41, and the power cord 41 can extend outside the main body 1 for connecting to an external power supply. As Figure 8 and Figure 14 shown, a first fixing position 411 may be fixedly provided on the foot 15, and the position of the power cord 41 adjacent to the power plug 40 can be fixed on the support member through the first fixing position 411. Since the power plug 40 and part of the power cord are outside the housing 11 and can be touched by the user, vibrations are caused. The vibrations will be offset at the first fixing position 411, thereby preventing the vibrations from being transmitted to the pot body member.
[0100] The other end of the power cord 41 extends from the first fixing position 411 to the support part 14 and can be fixed on the support part 14 through the first mounting position 412. In this way, at least two points of the power cord 41 are respectively fixed on the support member and the pot body member, so that the power cord 41 will not transmit external vibrations to the pot body member nor apply an external force to the pot body member, and the cooking device will not affect weighing when connected to an external power supply.
[0101] The circuit assembly may further include a material box connection line 42, and the material box connection line 42 is used to realize the communication and power supply of the main body 1 to the feeding device 2. In a specific embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3, a first power connection part 103 is provided on the female socket 10, and a second power connection part 202 is provided on the male plug 20. One of the first power connection part 103 and the second power connection part 202 can be a power connection head protruding outwards, and the other can be a power connection hole adapted to the former. When the male plug 20 is plugged into the female socket 10, the first power connection part 103 and the second power connection part 202 are connected together, thereby realizing the circuit connection and communication connection between the feeding device 2 and the host 1.
[0102] The first power connection part 103 can be located above the quick-connect joint 54. Correspondingly, the second power connection part 202 can also be located above the quick-connect interface 201. It can be understood that there may be seasoning residues at the quick-connect joint 54 and the quick-connect interface 201, and the residual seasonings may flow down or drip. By respectively arranging the first power connection part 103 and the second power connection part 202 above the quick-connect joint 54 and the quick-connect interface 201, it can effectively prevent the seasonings from dripping onto the first power connection part 103 and the second power connection part 202, thereby preventing pollution and avoiding poor contact or short circuit during power connection.
[0103] One end of the material box connection line 42 is connected to the inside of the first power connection part 103. As Figure 14 shown, a second fixing position 421 can be fixedly provided on the support member, and one end adjacent to the first power connection part 103 can be fixed on the support member through the second fixing position 421. The other end of the material box connection line 42 extends from the second fixing position 421 to the support part 14 and can be fixed on the support part 14 through the second installation position 422. In this way, at least two points of the material box connection line 42 are respectively fixed on the support member and the pot body member, so that the material box connection line 42 does not apply an external force to the pot body member, and the cooking device will not affect weighing when connecting the feeding device 2.
[0104] Furthermore, the first fixing position 411 and the first installation position 412, and the second fixing position 421 and the second installation position 422 can have a relatively long distance in the direction of the top view of the host 1. This can make the line assembly between the support member and the pot body member as long as possible, thereby improving the flexibility of the line assembly; in addition, the relatively long line assembly can, to a certain extent, avoid the influence of processing deviation on the weighing consistency.
[0105] In an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 14 and Figure 15 , the control module 6 includes a controller 61 and a fan 62. As described above, the controller 61 can be used to control the heating module 120 to heat the pot body 12. Since the controller 61 is in direct contact with the heating module 120, its temperature is likely to overheat, so it is necessary to dissipate heat from the controller 61. As Figure 15As shown, a second direction perpendicular to the first direction in the horizontal plane is defined, and the fan 62 and the controller 61 are spaced apart in the second direction. Referring to Figure 15 the airflow arrow markings in, the airflow formed by the fan 62 blows at least partially towards the controller 61 in the second direction, thereby realizing air-cooled heat dissipation for the controller 61.
[0106] As described above, referring to Figure 15 , the control module 6 can be located between the two weighing sensors 3, that is to say, both the controller 61 and the fan 62 are located between the two weighing sensors 3. During the operation of the fan 62, it is easy to cause the overall shaking of the host 1, which may in turn affect the accuracy of the weighing sensors 3 and result in a large feeding error. Therefore, in this application, the fan 62 is arranged between the two weighing sensors 3, so that the center of gravity of the fan 62 is centered, improving the stability of the host 1. In this way, when the fan 62 is working, the host 1 basically does not shake, so it will not affect the weighing sensors 3.
[0107] Specifically, as Figure 15 shown, an air inlet 161 is provided on the bottom plate 16, and as Figure 2 shown, an air outlet 112 is provided at the bottom side position of the housing 11. An air duct extending in the second direction is provided between the air inlet 161 and the air outlet 112. The controller 61 and the fan 62 are located in the air duct, and the fan 62 is inclinedly arranged on the bottom plate 16. The inclinedly arranged fan 62 can have a larger size, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. Since the air inlet 161 in this embodiment is provided on the bottom plate, it is necessary to cooperate with the air duct and the fan 62 to turn the airflow so that it blows towards the controller 61 in the second direction. The inclinedly arranged fan 62 includes an air inlet side inclined downward and an air outlet side opposite thereto. The air inlet 161 is provided at a position corresponding to the air inlet side on the bottom plate 16, and the air outlet 112 is provided at the bottom position of the housing 11 facing the air outlet side. The airflow enters the interior of the host 1 from the air inlet 161, and the air volume is larger due to the bottom air inlet; under the action of the fan 62, the airflow blows out from the air outlet side along the inclined direction of the fan 62 and turns in the air duct to blow towards the controller 61 in the second direction, so as to blow out the heat of the controller 61 from the air outlet 112, thereby realizing the heat dissipation effect.
[0108] Embodiment 2
[0109] This embodiment provides a host 1, including: a support member, a pot body member, and a weighing sensor 3. The weighing sensor 3 has a fixed end 302 and a force-receiving end 301. The fixed end 302 is connected to the support member, and the force-receiving end 301 is connected to the pot body member. The weighing sensor 3 is used to weigh the weight of the pot body member. A first connection portion is provided on the host 1, and the first connection portion is used to connect the host 1 to other devices. The host 1 further includes a feeding pipeline, and the feeding pipeline extends from the first connection portion to communicate with the pot body member.
[0110] The main unit 1 provided in this embodiment is exactly the same as the main unit 1 in the cooking device provided in the first embodiment, and its specific structure and working principle will not be elaborated here. The other device connected to the main unit 1 can be the feeding device 2 in the cooking device of the first embodiment. A second connecting portion can be provided on the feeding device 2, so as to be connected to the main unit 1 through the second connecting portion and the first connecting portion to feed the main unit 1.
[0111] The main unit 1 provided in this embodiment realizes that the static weighing of the main unit 1 and the feeding weighing share the same weighing sensor 3. It can weigh the ingredients in the pot and also determine the weight of the feed by weighing the weight of the pot components measured by the weighing sensor 3. This application realizes the functions of static weighing of the main unit 1 and seasoning weighing by using the weighing sensor 3 in the main unit 1, reduces the weighing cost, ensures the accuracy of weighing at the same time, and users do not need to weigh the seasonings separately, improving the user experience.
[0112] Embodiment III
[0113] This embodiment provides a feeding method, which can be applied to the cooking device provided in the first embodiment and the main unit 1 provided in the second embodiment. When feeding, if the pot body 12 is exactly in the state of heating and boiling, at this time, due to the evaporation and loss of water vapor, the weight of the pot components detected by the weighing sensor 3 will gradually decrease, resulting in an excessive actual feeding amount. It can be understood that an error of a few grams of seasonings will have a great impact on the taste of the dish. The method provided in this embodiment aims to solve the above problems, so as to achieve accurate feeding.
[0114] Reference Figure 16 , the feeding method provided in this application includes:
[0115] S102: Initial stage: Determine the target feeding weight of the target seasoning; when the cooking device meets the preset conditions, obtain the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval; control the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the main unit 1 through the feeding pipeline.
[0116] Specifically, the user can manually input the type of the target seasoning (or input the index information of the seasoning bottle 21), as well as the target feeding weight of the target seasoning; or, the control unit can also determine the target seasoning and the target feeding weight according to the recipe information pre-entered in advance.
[0117] In an embodiment of this application, after determining the target feeding weight of the target seasoning in the initial stage, it further includes:
[0118] Obtain the temperature of the inner pot 12 of the host 1. Specifically, an NTC can be set at a position adjacent to the pot 12, and the NTC can detect the temperature of the pot 12 in real time. After determining the target feeding weight of the target seasoning, the control unit can obtain the temperature of the inner pot 12 of the host 1 through the NTC.
[0119] When the temperature is greater than the preset temperature threshold, it is determined that the cooking device meets the preset conditions. In a specific embodiment of the present application, the preset temperature threshold can be 100 °C. When the temperature of the pot 12 obtained by the NTC is greater than 100 °C, it indicates that the inside of the pot 12 is in a boiling state. At this time, it is determined that the cooking device meets the preset conditions, and it is necessary to compensate for the weight lost due to the evaporation of water vapor, so as to avoid the problem of excessive feeding amount.
[0120] When the temperature is less than or equal to the preset threshold, control the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the host 1 through the feeding pipeline until the feeding amount reaches the target feeding weight. Specifically, when the temperature of the pot 12 obtained by the NTC does not reach 100 °C, it indicates that the inside of the pot 12 is in a non-boiling state. At this time, the cooking device does not meet the preset conditions, and there is no need to compensate for the weight lost due to the evaporation of water vapor, so the conventional feeding procedure can be directly executed.
[0121] When the cooking device meets the preset conditions, it is necessary to compensate for the weight lost due to the evaporation of water vapor. Therefore, feeding is not immediately performed, but the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval is first obtained through calculation. The unit evaporation weight information can be information such as the evaporation speed, rate, or grams evaporated per second.
[0122] In a specific embodiment of the present application, in the initial stage, obtaining the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval includes:
[0123] Obtain the first weight value and the second weight value based on the first preset time interval, and determine the unit evaporation weight information according to the first preset time interval, the first weight value, and the second weight value. Specifically, the weighing sensor 3 first obtains the current first weight value. After the first preset time interval, the current second weight value is obtained again. Due to the continuous evaporation effect, the second weight value is less than the first weight value. The unit evaporation weight information can be calculated according to the first preset time interval, the first weight value, and the second weight value. For example: when the first weight value is 500 grams, the second weight value is 496 grams, and the first preset time interval is 2 seconds, the unit evaporation weight information at this time is: (500 - 496) / 2 = 2 grams / second, that is, 2 grams of water vapor will evaporate per second, and this part of the evaporated weight needs to be compensated during the subsequent feeding process.
[0124] After obtaining the unit evaporation weight information, the feeding program can be started. Before starting to convey the target seasoning, the steps of the weighing stage need to be executed first.
[0125] S104: Weighing stage: Obtain the initial weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3. Specifically, the initial weight value can be the reading of the weighing sensor 3 when about to start adding the seasoning. Subsequently, during the feeding process, it is necessary to obtain the weight value increment based on the initial weight value, so as to calculate the fed weight. After obtaining the initial weight and starting to feed, the steps of the calculation stage can be executed.
[0126] S106: Calculation stage: When the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, obtain the current weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3, and calculate the fed weight based on the initial weight value, the current weight value, and the unit evaporation weight information. Specifically, after starting to feed, the feeding device 2 will continuously convey the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline until the feeding is completed. When the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, a current weight value can be obtained once. At this time, the feeding duration can be re-counted, and when the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold again, the current weight value can be obtained again. For example, the preset duration threshold can be 0.5 seconds, and the current weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3 can be obtained every 0.5 seconds. The preset duration threshold should not be set too long, otherwise real-time monitoring of the current weight cannot be achieved.
[0127] Calculate the fed weight based on the initial weight value, the current weight value, and the unit evaporation weight information. Specifically, the current weight value can be subtracted from the initial weight value and then added with the unit evaporation weight within the preset time to calculate the fed weight. For example: Referring to Table 1, the weight value weighed at 0 seconds is the initial weight value of 160 grams; the preset duration threshold is 0.5 seconds, and the weight value weighed at 0.5 seconds is the first current weight value of 159.5 grams; the unit evaporation weight is 2 grams / second, and the cumulative evaporation weight within 0.5 seconds is 1 gram; based on the above information, the fed weight can be calculated as 159.5 - 160 + 1 = 0.5 grams.
[0128] Table 1: Execution example table of the method in Example 3
[0129]
[0130]
[0131] Note: The unit evaporation weight in the example is 2 g / s, and the target feeding weight is 2 g.
[0132] After calculating the fed weight, the loop stage can be executed.
[0133] S108: Cycle stage: Determine the current feeding strategy based on the added weight and the target added weight; when the current feeding strategy is continuous feeding, control the feeding device 2 to deliver the target seasoning to the main engine 1 through the feeding pipeline, and continue to execute the calculation stage until the current feeding strategy is to stop feeding. Specifically, by comparing the added weight with the target added weight, it can be determined whether the feeding is completed. If the added weight calculated in step S106 is greater than or equal to the target added weight, the current feeding strategy is determined to be stop feeding; if the added weight calculated in step S106 is less than the target added weight, the current feeding strategy is determined to be continuous feeding. For example: Referring to Table 1, the added weight at 0.5 seconds is 0.5 grams, which is less than the target added weight (2g), so the current feeding strategy is determined to be continuous feeding.
[0134] During the feeding process, a certain amount of water vapor is generated, and the weight of the water vapor cannot be weighed by the weighing sensor 3, so it is necessary to compensate this part of the evaporated weight to the added weight to prevent over-feeding. For example: Referring to Table 1, the feeding strategy at 0.5 seconds is continuous feeding, so steps S106-S108 are executed in a loop; at 1 second, the feeding duration of this round reaches the preset duration threshold (0.5 seconds) again, and the weight value obtained by weighing at 1 second is the second current weight value of 159 grams; the unit evaporation weight is 2 grams / second, and the cumulative evaporation weight within 1 second is 2 grams; based on the above information, it can be calculated that the added weight is 159-160+2=1 gram; the added weight at 1 second is less than the target feeding weight (2 grams), so it is determined that the current feeding strategy is continuous feeding, and steps S106-S108 need to be executed in a loop again.
[0135] By analogy, the added weight (1.5 grams) at 1.5 seconds is still less than the target added weight, so step S106 is executed again. At 2 seconds, the fourth current weight value is 158 grams, and the cumulative evaporation weight within 2 seconds is 4 grams; the added weight at this time is 158-160+4=2 grams; the added weight at 2 seconds is equal to the target added weight, so the current feeding strategy is determined to stop feeding. At this point, step S108 is executed, and there is no need to cycle again, and this feeding operation ends.
[0136] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the feeding method further comprises:
[0137] In the circulation stage, when the current feeding strategy is to stop feeding, the feeding device 2 is controlled to stop feeding to the host 1. At this time, the weight of the added material is greater than or equal to the target feeding weight, indicating that the amount of material added is sufficient, so the feeding needs to be stopped immediately to prevent adding too much seasoning.
[0138] In an embodiment of the present application, during the cycling phase, when the current feeding strategy is continuous feeding, the feeding device 2 is controlled to convey the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline, and the weighing phase and the calculation phase are continued until the current feeding strategy is stop feeding. Specifically, in this embodiment, the initial weight value can be re-weighed once in each cycle. In the calculation phase of each cycle, the latest current weight value is subtracted from the initial weight value obtained in this cycle, so as to more accurately measure the weight of the added material in this cycle.
[0139] Embodiment 4
[0140] This embodiment provides a feeding method, which can be applied to the cooking device provided in Embodiment 1 and the main machine 1 provided in Embodiment 2. As Figure 1 shown, the pot body component of the cooking device includes an input component 18. The input component 18 can specifically be structures such as a touch screen, buttons, and knobs; the input component 18 sends a feeding instruction under pressure to determine the target feeding weight of the target seasoning. When the user operates the input component 18, pressure is applied to the pot body component, which usually causes the weighing sensor 3 to still be in an unstable state for 1-2 seconds after pressing. To ensure the accuracy of weighing, feeding should start after the weighing sensor 3 returns to stability.
[0141] The method provided in this embodiment aims to solve the above problems, so as to achieve precise feeding.
[0142] Refer to Figure 17 , the feeding method of the present application includes:
[0143] S202: When receiving a feeding instruction, obtain multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within a second preset time interval, and determine the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the second preset time interval according to the multiple weight values.
[0144] Specifically, the weight value fluctuation information includes at least one statistic such as the extreme difference, variance, and standard deviation. By obtaining multiple weight values within the second preset time interval, it can be known whether the weighing sensor 3 has returned to stability. It can be understood that when the weight value fluctuation information of multiple weight values, such as the extreme difference, is too large, it means that the current fluctuation is still significant and the weighing sensor 3 has not returned to stability.
[0145] Taking the weight value fluctuation information as the extreme difference as an example: the second preset time interval can be 0.5 seconds, and the control unit can read the weight value of the weighing sensor 3 every 40 milliseconds, so as to generate 12-13 readings; the control unit can obtain the maximum value and the minimum value among these readings, and obtain the extreme difference information by taking the difference. Since the unstable state of the weighing sensor 3 is usually only about 1-2 seconds, the second preset time interval should not be too long, and the second preset time interval can be between 0.1-1 second.
[0146] S204: When the weight value fluctuation information is greater than or equal to a preset weight value fluctuation threshold, obtain multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within a second preset time interval, determine the extreme value difference information corresponding to the second preset time interval based on the multiple weight values, and count the number of loop executions.
[0147] Specifically, when the weight value fluctuation information is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, it means that the weighing sensor 3 in this round is still in an unstable state and cannot perform the weighing work normally. Therefore, it is necessary to loop the previous step, that is, obtain the weight value fluctuation information within the second preset time interval again. Taking the weight value fluctuation information as the extreme value difference as an example: the preset extreme value difference threshold can be 1 gram. When the extreme value difference information is greater than or equal to 1 gram, it can be considered that the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state and the previous step needs to be looped.
[0148] In an embodiment of the present application, when the weight value fluctuation information is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, reduce the heating power. Specifically, as described above, when the weight value fluctuation information is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, it means that the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state, and the weighing error at this time is very large. Therefore, the target seasoning cannot be conveyed to the host 1. During the cooking process, the heating module 120 will continuously heat the pot body 12. During the waiting process for adding materials, the heating power can be appropriately reduced to ensure the cooking quality of the dish.
[0149] S206: When the weight value fluctuation information is less than the preset weight value fluctuation threshold or the number of loop executions is greater than the preset number threshold, control the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the host 1 through the feeding pipeline.
[0150] Specifically, still taking the weight value fluctuation information as the extreme value difference and the preset extreme value difference threshold as 1 gram as an example, when the extreme value difference information is less than 1 gram, it can be considered that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to a stable state and can perform the weighing work normally. Or, when the number of loop executions reaches the preset number threshold, taking the second preset time interval as 0.5 seconds as an example, the preset number threshold can be set to 6 times at this time. When the number of loop executions reaches 6 times, it means that 3 seconds have passed. As described above, the weighing sensor 3 is usually still in an unstable state within 1 - 2 seconds after pressing is completed. It can be considered that 3 seconds are enough for the weighing sensor 3 to return to a stable state and can perform the weighing work normally. The preset number threshold can be set according to the second preset time interval, and the product of the two needs to be at least greater than 2 seconds.
[0151] When it is ensured that the load cell 3 has returned to stability and can perform weighing work normally, the current weight can be obtained as the initial weight value, and then the feeding device 2 is controlled to convey the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline. During the feeding process, it is necessary to obtain the weight increment based on the initial weight value, so as to calculate the feeding weight. When the feeding weight reaches the target feeding weight input by the user through the input component 18, the feeding device 2 can be controlled to stop conveying the target seasoning.
[0152] Embodiment 5
[0153] This embodiment provides a feeding method, which can be applied to the cooking device in Embodiment 1. The solution provided in this embodiment, like that in Embodiment 2, aims to solve the problem of excessive feeding amount caused by the evaporation and loss of water vapor.
[0154] Reference Figure 18 , the feeding method provided in this application includes:
[0155] S302: Determine the target feeding weight of the target seasoning. Specifically, the user can manually input the type of the target seasoning (or input the index information of the seasoning bottle 21), as well as the target feeding weight of the target seasoning; or, the control unit can also determine the target seasoning and the target feeding weight according to the recipe information pre-entered.
[0156] In an implementation manner of this application, after determining the target feeding weight of the target seasoning, it further includes:
[0157] Obtain the temperature of the inner pot 12 of the main machine 1. Specifically, an NTC can be set at a position adjacent to the inner pot 12, and the NTC can detect the temperature of the inner pot 12 in real time. After the control unit determines the target feeding weight of the target seasoning, it can obtain the temperature of the inner pot 12 of the main machine 1 through the NTC.
[0158] When the temperature is greater than the preset temperature threshold, it is determined that the cooking device meets the preset conditions. In a specific implementation manner of this application, the preset temperature threshold can be 100 °C. When the temperature of the inner pot 12 obtained by the NTC is greater than 100 °C, it indicates that the inner pot 12 is in a boiling state. At this time, it is determined that the cooking device meets the preset conditions, and the weight of the evaporated and lost water vapor needs to be compensated to avoid the problem of excessive feeding amount.
[0159] When the temperature is less than or equal to the preset threshold, the feeding device 2 is controlled to convey the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline until the feeding amount reaches the target feeding weight. Specifically, when the temperature of the inner pot 12 obtained by the NTC does not reach 100 °C, it indicates that the inner pot 12 is in a non-boiling state. At this time, the cooking device does not meet the preset conditions, and there is no need to compensate for the weight of the evaporated and lost water vapor, so the conventional feeding procedure can be directly executed.
[0160] S304: When the cooking device meets the preset conditions, obtain the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval. As described above, when the cooking device meets the preset conditions, it is necessary to compensate for the weight lost due to the evaporation of water vapor. Therefore, feeding is not immediately carried out, but the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval is first obtained through calculation. The unit evaporation weight information can be information such as the evaporation speed, rate, or grams evaporated per second.
[0161] In a specific embodiment of the present application, obtaining the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval includes:
[0162] Obtain a first weight value and a second weight value based on the first preset time interval, and determine the unit evaporation weight information according to the first preset time interval, the first weight value, and the second weight value. Specifically, the weighing sensor 3 first obtains the current first weight value. After the first preset time interval, the current second weight value is obtained again. Due to the continuous evaporation effect, the second weight value is less than the first weight value.
[0163] S306: Obtain the initial weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3, and control the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the main body 1 through the feeding pipeline. Specifically, after calculating the unit evaporation weight information, the feeding program can be started. First, it is necessary to obtain the initial weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3. During the subsequent feeding process, it is necessary to obtain the weight value increment based on the initial weight value, so as to calculate the feeding weight.
[0164] S308: When the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, obtain the current weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3, and determine the current feeding strategy based on the initial weight value, the current weight value, and the target feeding weight. Specifically, after starting the feeding, the feeding device 2 will continuously convey the target seasoning to the main body 1 through the feeding pipeline until the feeding is completed. When the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, the current weight value can be obtained once. At this time, the feeding duration can be re-counted, and when the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold again, the current weight value can be obtained again. For example, the preset duration threshold can be 0.5 seconds, and the current weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3 can be obtained every 0.5 seconds. The preset duration threshold should not be set too long, otherwise real-time monitoring of the current weight cannot be achieved.
[0165] Based on the initial weight value, the current weight value, and the target feeding weight, the current feeding strategy can be determined. Specifically, the feeding weight can be obtained by subtracting the initial weight value from the current weight value. By comparing the feeding weight with the target feeding weight, it can be determined whether the feeding is completed. If the difference between the current weight value and the initial weight value is greater than the target feeding weight, the current feeding strategy is determined to be stop feeding; if the difference between the current weight value and the initial weight value is less than or equal to the target feeding weight, the current feeding strategy is determined to be continuous feeding.
[0166] S310: When the current feeding strategy is continuous feeding, update the target feeding weight based on the unit evaporation weight information, and continue to execute the operation of obtaining the current weight value measured by the weighing sensor 3 when the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, and determining the current feeding strategy according to the initial weight value, the current weight value, and the updated target feeding weight.
[0167] Specifically, during this round of feeding, part of the water vapor is generated, and the weight of the water vapor cannot be measured by the weighing sensor 3. Therefore, this part of the evaporated weight needs to be subtracted from the target feeding weight to update the target feeding weight to prevent overfeeding. For example: when 1 gram of water vapor evaporates per second, that is, the unit evaporation weight information is 1 gram / second, the evaporated weight of this round can be calculated according to the feeding time of this round (i.e., the preset duration threshold); for example, when the preset duration threshold is 0.5 seconds, the evaporated weight of this round is 0.5 grams, and the target weight needs to be updated to: the original target weight - 0.5 grams.
[0168] Then, feeding can continue, and steps S308 - S310 are executed in a loop until the difference between the current weight value and the initial weight value is greater than the target feeding weight after the last update.
[0169] In a specific embodiment of the present application, the feeding method further includes:
[0170] When the current feeding strategy is stop feeding, control the feeding device 2 to stop feeding the host 1. At this time, the difference between the current weight value and the initial weight value is greater than the target feeding weight, indicating that the feeding amount is sufficient, so the feeding needs to be stopped immediately to prevent adding too much seasoning.
[0171] In an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 1As shown, the pot body component of the cooking device includes an input component 18, and the input component 18 can specifically be structures such as a touch screen, buttons, knobs, etc.; the input component is configured to send a feeding instruction under pressure to determine the target feeding weight of the target condiment. When the user operates the input component 18, pressure will be applied to the pot body component, which usually causes the weighing sensor 3 to still be in an unstable state for 1 - 2 seconds after the pressing is completed. To ensure the accuracy of weighing, it is necessary to start feeding after the weighing sensor 3 returns to stability.
[0172] Between step S302 and S304, the feeding method of the present application further includes:
[0173] When receiving the feeding instruction, obtain multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within a second preset time interval, and determine the extreme value difference information corresponding to the second preset time interval according to the multiple weight values.
[0174] For example: the second preset time interval can be 0.5 seconds, and the control unit can read the weight value of the weighing sensor 3 every 40 milliseconds, thus generating 12 - 13 readings; the control unit can obtain the maximum and minimum values among these readings and obtain the extreme value difference information by taking the difference. Since the unstable state of the weighing sensor 3 is usually only about 1 - 2 seconds, the second preset time interval should not be too long, and the second preset time interval can be between 0.1 - 1 second.
[0175] When the extreme value difference information is greater than or equal to a preset extreme value difference threshold, perform the operation of obtaining multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within the second preset time interval, and determining the extreme value difference information corresponding to the second preset time interval, and count the number of loop executions.
[0176] Specifically, the extreme value difference information being greater than or equal to the preset extreme value difference threshold means that the weighing sensor 3 in this round is still in an unstable state and cannot perform the weighing work normally. Therefore, it is necessary to loop the previous step, that is, obtain the extreme value difference information within the second preset time interval again. For example: the preset extreme value difference threshold can be 1 gram. When the extreme value difference information is greater than or equal to 1 gram, it can be considered that the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state and the previous step needs to be looped.
[0177] When the extreme value difference information is less than the preset extreme value difference threshold, or the number of loop executions is greater than the preset number threshold, determine whether the cooking device meets the preset conditions.
[0178] Specifically, still taking the preset extreme value difference threshold as 1 gram as an example, when the extreme value difference information is less than 1 gram, it can be considered that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to a stable state and can perform weighing work normally. Or, when the number of loop executions reaches the preset number threshold, taking the second preset time interval as 0.5 seconds as an example, the preset number threshold can be set to 6 times at this time. When the number of loop executions reaches 6 times, it means that 3 seconds have passed. As described above, the weighing sensor 3 is usually still in an unstable state within 1 - 2 seconds after being pressed. It can be considered that 3 seconds are sufficient for the weighing sensor 3 to return to stability and perform weighing work normally. The preset number threshold can be set according to the second preset time interval, and the product of the two needs to be at least greater than 2 seconds.
[0179] On the premise of ensuring that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to stability and can perform weighing work normally, the temperature of the pot body 12 can be measured to determine whether the cooking device meets the preset conditions. If the preset conditions are met, step S304 is continued to be executed.
[0180] Embodiment Six
[0181] This embodiment provides a feeding method, which can be applied to the cooking device provided in Embodiment One and the host 1 provided in Embodiment Two. When feeding is about to be performed, if the liquid in the pot body 12 is exactly in a boiling state, the boiling and tumbling liquid will cause the weight value measured by the weighing sensor 3 to fluctuate continuously; and after the user presses the input component 18, the weighing sensor 3 will also fluctuate for a period of time. To ensure the accuracy of weighing, it is necessary to exclude the interference of boiling jitter and pressure fluctuation, and start feeding after the weighing sensor 3 returns to stability.
[0182] Reference Figure 19 , the feeding method of the present application includes:
[0183] S402: When receiving a feeding instruction, obtain multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within a preset time interval, and determine the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the preset time interval according to the multiple weight values.
[0184] Specifically, the weight value fluctuation information includes at least one statistic such as extreme value difference, variance, and standard deviation. By obtaining multiple weight values within a preset time interval, it can be known whether the weighing sensor 3 has returned to stability. It can be understood that when the weight value fluctuation information of multiple weight values is too large, for example, the extreme value difference is too large, it means that the current fluctuation is still significant and the weighing sensor 3 has not returned to stability.
[0185] Taking the extreme difference of the weight value fluctuation information as an example: The preset time interval can be 0.5 seconds, and the control unit can read the weight value of the weighing sensor 3 every 40 milliseconds, thus generating 12 - 13 readings; the control unit can obtain the maximum and minimum values among these readings, and obtain the extreme difference information by taking the difference. The preset time interval should not be too long, and the second preset time interval can be between 0.1 - 1 second.
[0186] S404: When the extreme difference information of the weight value fluctuation is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, perform the operation of obtaining multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within the preset time interval again, and determining the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the preset time interval according to the multiple weight values.
[0187] Specifically, the weight value fluctuation information being greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold means that the weighing sensor 3 in this round is still in an unstable state and cannot perform the weighing work normally. Therefore, it is necessary to loop back to the previous step, that is, obtain the weight value fluctuation information within the preset time interval again. Taking the extreme difference of the weight value fluctuation information as an example: The preset extreme difference threshold can be 1 gram. When the extreme difference is greater than or equal to 1 gram, it can be considered that the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state and it is necessary to loop back to the previous step.
[0188] In an embodiment of the present application, the feeding method further includes: reducing the heating power when the weight value fluctuation information is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold. Specifically, the liquid boiling and heating in the pot body 12 causes the weighing fluctuation of the weighing sensor 3. Therefore, when the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state, it is necessary to control the heating module 120 to reduce the heating power, thereby reducing the temperature of the pot body 12, eliminating the boiling state in the pot, and thus avoiding the influence of boiling on weighing.
[0189] Furthermore, the feeding method further includes: stopping heating when the extreme difference information of the weight value fluctuation is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold. As described above, when the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state, simply reducing the heating power may not be able to stop the boiling quickly. Therefore, the heating module 120 can be directly controlled to stop heating, so as to quickly cool down. After the boiling stops, the influence of boiling will be eliminated. At this time, feeding can be carried out to achieve accurate weighing of the supplied material. After feeding is completed, the heating module 120 can be controlled to resume heating, so as to continue cooking.
[0190] S406: When the weight value fluctuation information is less than the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, control the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the host 1 through the feeding pipeline.
[0191] Specifically, still taking the weight value fluctuation information as the extreme difference and the preset extreme difference threshold as 1 gram as an example, when the extreme difference information is less than 1 gram, it can be considered that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to a stable state and can perform weighing work normally. When it is ensured that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to stability and can perform weighing work normally, the current weight can be obtained as the initial weight value, and then the feeding device 2 can be controlled to convey the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline. During the feeding process, it is necessary to obtain the weight value increment based on the initial weight value, so as to calculate the feeding weight. When the feeding weight reaches the target feeding weight input by the user through the input component 18, the feeding device 2 can be controlled to stop conveying the target seasoning.
[0192] In an embodiment of the present application, after the operation of obtaining multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within a preset time interval again and determining the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the preset time interval according to the multiple weight values, it further includes: counting the number of loop executions.
[0193] The feeding method further includes: controlling the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline when the extreme difference information of the weight value fluctuation is less than the preset extreme difference threshold of the weight value fluctuation, or when the number of loop executions is greater than the preset number threshold.
[0194] Specifically, in the case of fluctuations caused by pressing the input component 18, for example: when it is detected that the inside of the pot body 12 is not boiling, it is only necessary to eliminate the weighing fluctuations caused by pressing. When the number of loop executions reaches the preset number threshold, taking the preset time interval as 0.5 seconds as an example, the preset number threshold can be set to 6 times at this time. When the number of loop executions reaches 6 times, it means that 3 seconds have passed. The weighing sensor 3 is usually still in an unstable state for 1 - 2 seconds after pressing, and it can be considered that 3 seconds are enough for the weighing sensor 3 to return to stability and perform weighing work normally. The preset number threshold can be set according to the preset time interval, and the product of the two needs to be at least greater than 2 seconds.

[0198] In an embodiment of the present application, with reference to Figure 4 as shown in, a feeding port 133 is provided on the turning arm 131 and / or the cover body 130, and the feeding port 133 extends from the turning arm 131 to penetrate through the cover body 130. When the cover body 130 is closed, the feeding port 133 is located directly above the pot body 12, so that seasonings can be automatically added to the pot body 12 through the feeding port 133, improving the user experience. The feeding port 133 can be a component installed on the cover body 130 or the turning arm 131, or a component installed on both the turning arm 131 and the cover body 130. As Figure 4 shown in, the feeding port 133 in this embodiment is installed on both the turning arm 131 and the cover body 130 at the same time, and the feeding port 133 extends from the turning arm 131 to penetrate through the cover body 130, so as to be able to put seasonings into the pot body 12.
[0199] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in, the feeding device 2 is used to supply materials to the host 1. The feeding device 2 includes a seasoning storage device and a power mechanism. The seasonings in the seasoning storage device flow to the pot body 12 through the feeding pipeline under the driving action of the power mechanism. Further, the seasonings in the seasoning storage device flow through the turning arm 131 and the feeding port 133 and then flow to the pot body 12 under the driving action of the power mechanism. Specifically, the seasoning storage device can be a seasoning bottle 21, and the power mechanism can be a peristaltic pump 23. The feeding device 2 includes a material box housing 24 and at least one seasoning bottle 21 arranged inside the material box housing 24. The output port of the seasoning bottle 21 can be communicated with one end of the feeding pipe 22 inside the material box housing 24. When feeding is required, under the action of the peristaltic pump 23, the other end of the feeding pipe 22 can transport the seasonings stored in the seasoning bottle 21 to the outside of the feeding device 2.
[0200] As Figure 3As shown, the feeding device 2 may have multiple seasoning bottles 21. For example, the feeding device 2 in this embodiment includes five seasoning bottles, and the five seasoning bottles can be respectively used to store different seasonings, such as used to store: edible oil, brine, sugar water, soy sauce, and vinegar. This application does not limit the specific quantity and content of the seasoning bottles 21. It should be noted that this application uses a pipeline pumping method to transport seasonings. Therefore, the seasonings stored in the seasoning bottles 21 are preferably in a liquid state to facilitate feeding.
[0201] Reference Figures 1 to 3 , a first connection part is provided on the base body, and a second connection part is provided on the feeding device 2. The feeding device 2 is connected to the host 1 through the first connection part and the second connection part. The first end of the feeding pipeline is connected to the host 1 by the first connection part, and the second end is connected to the feeding device 2 by the second connection part. The first connection part and the second connection part are plugged and connected so that the first end and the second end passed by the feeding pipeline are communicated. It should be noted that the feeding pipeline may not be a complete pipeline, but a feeding path formed by sequentially connecting several connectors and several pipelines.
[0202] Specifically, one of the first connection part and the second connection part is a male plug 20, and the other is a female socket 10. The male plug 20 is detachably plugged on the female socket 10. In this embodiment, the first connection part is the female socket 10 provided on the base body, and the second connection part is the male plug 20 provided on the feeding device 2. The male plug 20 protrudes from the outer shell 24 of the material box and has a shape adapted to the female socket 10.
[0203] One of the first connection part and the second connection part is provided with a quick-connect joint 54, and the other is provided with a quick-connect interface 201. The quick-connect joint 54 is detachably plugged on the quick-connect interface 201. Specifically, in this embodiment, the male plug 20 is provided with the quick-connect interface 201, and the quick-connect interface 201 can be communicated with the output port of the feeding pipe 22 inside the feeding device 2, so as to feed materials outward from the quick-connect interface 201. The female socket 10 is provided with the quick-connect joint 54. When the male plug 20 is plugged on the female socket 10, a rigid connection is formed between the feeding device 2 and the base body of the host 1. The quick-connect joint 54 can extend into the quick-connect interface 201, and the seasoning can flow from the quick-connect interface 201 into the quick-connect joint 54. The quick-connect joint 54 can be a part of the feeding pipeline, and the feeding pipeline is connected to the feeding device 2 through the quick-connect joint 54. The seasoning enters the host 1 through the quick-connect joint 54 and is continuously transported to the feeding port 133 through the feeding pipeline inside the host 1 for feeding.
[0204] The present application provides a cooking device in which a main unit 1 is pluggably connected to a feeding device 2. Specifically, a first connecting portion on the main unit 1 and a second connecting portion on the feeding device 2 can be directly plugged together to form a rigid connection structure. There is no longer a need to connect the main unit 1 and the feeding device 2 by a flexible feeding pipe, thereby simplifying the accessories of the cooking device and reducing the cost of the cooking device. Further, the first connecting portion is provided on the base of the main unit 1 rather than on the turning arm 131, so that the feeding device 2 and the turning arm 131 are independent of each other, avoiding interference between the turning arm 131 and the feeding device 2. When the feeding device 2 is plugged on the main unit 1, the turning arm 131 can still rotate relative to the base to perform operations such as opening and closing the lid, and the user does not need to frequently plug and unplug the feeding device 2, thereby improving the user experience.
[0205] In an embodiment of the present application, a plurality of quick-insert interfaces 201 may be provided on the male plug 20, and a plurality of quick-insert connectors 54 may be provided on the female socket 10. For example, five quick-insert interfaces 201 are provided on the male plug 20 of this embodiment, and five quick-insert connectors 54 are provided on the female socket 10, and the five quick-insert connectors 54 are respectively adapted to the five quick-insert interfaces 201. As described above, the feeding device 2 of this embodiment includes five seasoning bottles 21, and each seasoning bottle 21 stores different seasonings. In order to ensure that there is no flavor mixing during feeding and to ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of the feeding pipe 22, a separate feeding pipe 22 may be provided for each seasoning bottle 21; the five quick-insert interfaces 201 can be respectively communicated with the five feeding pipes 22 to respectively feed the five seasonings into the five quick-insert connectors 54. The present application does not limit the specific number of the quick-insert interfaces 201 and the quick-insert connectors 54, as long as the number and position of the quick-insert interfaces 201 and the quick-insert connectors 54 match each other.
[0206] In an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a first power connection portion 103 is provided on the female socket 10, and a second power connection portion 202 is provided on the male plug 20. One of the first power connection portion 103 and the second power connection portion 202 may be a protruding power connection head, and the other may be a power connection hole adapted to the former. When the male plug 20 is plugged into the female socket 10, the first power connection portion 103 and the second power connection portion 202 are connected together, thereby realizing the electrical connection and communication connection between the feeding device 2 and the main unit 1.
[0207] The first power connection part 103 is located above one of the quick-connect plug 54 and the quick-connect interface 201, and the second power connection part is located above the other. In this embodiment, the first power connection part 103 can be located above the quick-connect plug 54, and correspondingly, the second power connection part 202 can also be located above the quick-connect interface 201. It can be understood that there may be seasoning residues at the quick-connect plug 54 and the quick-connect interface 201, and the residual seasoning may flow downward or drip. By respectively arranging the first power connection part 103 and the second power connection part 202 above the quick-connect plug 54 and the quick-connect interface 201, it can effectively prevent the seasoning from dripping onto the first power connection part 103 and the second power connection part 202, thereby achieving prevention of contamination and also avoiding poor contact or short circuit during power connection.
[0208] In an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 7 shown, the first connection part includes a connection part body and a carrier seat 19. Among them, the carrier seat 19 is connected to the base body, the connection part body is installed on the carrier seat 19, and is docked with the second connection part. The first connection part of this embodiment is a female socket 10. The female socket 10 includes a female plug body 100 and a carrier seat 19. The female plug body 100 is connected to the base body through the carrier seat 19. There is a degree of freedom of movement between the connection part body and the carrier seat 19. When the first connection part is the female socket 10 and the second connection part is the male plug 20, the male plug 20 can be fixedly arranged on the feeding device 2, and the female plug body 100 has a certain degree of freedom of movement relative to the carrier seat 19; it is also possible to make both the male plug 20 and the female plug body 100 have a certain degree of freedom of movement. Similarly, when the first connection part is the male plug 20 and the second connection part is the female socket 10, it is also possible to make the male plug 20 and / or the female socket 10 have a certain degree of freedom of movement.
[0209] Specifically, the connection part body is installed on the carrier seat 19 through a limiting component, and has a degree of freedom of movement in the height direction under the limitation of the limiting component. Referring to Figure 13 , the limiting component can be a screw 104 with a gasket. The female plug body 100 can be installed on the carrier seat 19 through the screw 104. The carrier seat 19 can be provided with an installation hole, and the diameter of the installation hole is slightly larger than that of the screw. As Figure 13As shown, there is a certain clearance 105 between the screw 104 and the through hole, whereby the female plug body 100 can move up and down relative to the carrier base 19. It can be understood that during the production process, there may be a certain height deviation between the quick-insert interface 201 of the male plug 20 and the quick-insert joint 54 of the female plug body 100, resulting in the inability to smoothly plug them together. For this reason, in this embodiment, the female plug body 100 with a certain movement space is provided. When the quick-insert interface 201 and the quick-insert joint 54 cannot be accurately docked in height, the height position of the female plug body 100 can be slightly adjusted through the clearance 105, thereby avoiding the deviation caused by production and improving the flexibility.
[0210] In one embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 7 and Figure 12 , the base body includes a housing 11 and a bottom plate 16. An opening 111 for cooperating with the first connecting portion is provided on the side wall of the housing 11. There is a first clearance 101 between the side wall of the first connecting portion and the inner wall of the opening 111, and a second clearance 102 between the bottom of the first connecting portion and the bottom plate 16. The first clearance 101 communicates with the second clearance 102. During the process of the user using the cooking device, after unplugging and plugging the feeding device 2, it is easy for seasonings or oil and water to remain in the female socket 10. The liquid remaining in the female socket 10 is likely to flow into the clearance between the female socket 10 and the housing 11 during the downward flow, resulting in pollution inside the main unit 1 and making it difficult for the user to clean it. For this reason, in this embodiment, the female socket 10 is arranged at the lower position of the main unit 1, and there is a second clearance 102 between the female socket 10 and the bottom plate 16, that is, a second clearance 102 is formed between the bottom of the female socket 10 and the bottom of the bottom plate 16. The second clearance 102 communicates with the first clearance 101. The remaining liquid will not flow into the main unit 1 through the clearance during the downward flow, but will flow all the way down to the bottom of the female socket 10 or the bottom of the bottom plate 16 until it drips onto the tabletop, facilitating the user to clean.
[0211] The specific structure and connection method of a part of the feeding pipeline between the main unit 1 and the feeding device 2 are described above. Next, the specific structure and connection method of a part of the feeding pipeline inside the main unit 1 will be specifically described.
[0212] In existing cooking devices with an automatic feeding function, the feeding device 2 and the main unit 1 are usually connected by a hose. To simplify the layout of the feeding pipeline in the main unit, the hose is usually connected to the turning arm 131 of the main unit 1. The hose can bend as the turning arm 131 rotates. In this way, only the feeding pipeline needs to be arranged on the turning arm 131, and no feeding pipeline needs to be arranged in the main unit 1 below the turning arm 131, nor does it need to consider the arrangement of the feeding pipeline at the rotating shaft 132. In this application, the feeding device 2 and the main unit 1 are directly plugged in. The first connecting part, the second connecting part, and the feeding device 2 cannot rotate as the turning arm 131 rotates. The feeding device 2 is directly plugged into the base body. The feeding pipeline needs to extend from the first connecting part through the rotating shaft 132 and the turning arm 131 to the feeding port 133. It can be seen that the pipeline inside the main unit 1 needs to be redesigned.
[0213] In an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 4 , Figures 9 to 11 , the feeding pipeline includes a first joint assembly 53 connected to the base body and adjacent to the turning arm 131, and further includes a first feeding pipe 51 located between the first joint assembly 53 and the feeding port 133. The feeding pipeline further includes a second feeding pipe 52 located between the first joint assembly 53 and the first connecting part. One end of the second feeding pipe 52 is connected to the first joint assembly 53, and the other end extends towards the first connecting part to be connected to a corresponding pipe joint provided on the first connecting part, that is, connected to the quick-connect joint 54 on the female socket 10. The seasoning from the feeding device 2 enters the main unit 1 through the quick-connect joint 54, and then flows through the second feeding pipe 52, the first joint assembly 53, and the first feeding pipe 51 in sequence to reach the feeding port 133, thereby realizing feeding.
[0214] In an embodiment of the present application, referring to Figure 11 , the feeding pipeline further includes a second joint assembly 55. The second joint assembly 55 can be arranged at an upstream position of the feeding port 133. One end of the first feeding pipe 51 is communicated with the first joint assembly 53, and the other end is communicated with the second joint assembly 55, so as to convey the seasoning to the feeding port 133 through the second joint assembly 55. In this embodiment, a separate feeding pipeline is set for each seasoning, but finally all will converge to the same feeding port 133. Therefore, the present application can set a second joint assembly 55 with multiple input ends and one output end, so as to converge the ends of multiple feeding pipelines together.
[0215] In an embodiment of the present application, as Figure 10As shown, a sleeve 17 may be provided on the base body, and the sleeve 17 may be sleeved on the connection position between the first joint assembly 53 and the first feeding pipe 51. The sleeve 17 strengthens the fixing effect on the first feeding pipe 51. In addition, during the rotation of the rotating shaft 132, the first feeding pipe 51 will deform accordingly, and thus certain alternating stresses will be generated. The fixation of the sleeve 17 can effectively prevent the first joint assembly 53 from being damaged and extend the service life of the first joint assembly 53.
[0216] In an embodiment of the present application, the position where the first joint assembly 53 is used to connect with the second feeding pipe 52 is set at a position lower than the rotating shaft 132. It can be understood that during the rotation of the rotating shaft 132 driving the turning arm 131 and the cover body 130, some feeding pipelines in the main machine 1 will deform and shift as they rotate. In the present application, the input joint of the first joint assembly 53 (that is, the joint used to connect with the second feeding pipe 52) is set at a position lower than the rotating shaft 132, so as to ensure that the second feeding pipe 52 is completely located below the rotating shaft 132. The mutual spatial position between the first joint assembly 53 and the quick-connect joint 54 will not be affected by the rotation of the turning arm 131, so that the shape of the second feeding pipe 52 is fixed.
[0217] For the first feeding pipe 51 connected to the output joint above the first joint assembly 53, the rotation of the rotating shaft 132 will inevitably drive the first feeding pipe 51 to move. If the first feeding pipe 51 deforms excessively during the following rotation, or in the case of multiple first feeding pipes 51, the multiple first feeding pipes 51 may squeeze each other during the movement, which will cause the feeding process to be unsmooth. Based on this, the installation position of the first feeding pipe 51 needs to be designed.
[0218] In an embodiment of the present application, the first feeding pipe 51 includes a first pipe section extending along the length direction of the turning arm 131, a second pipe section extending along the axial direction of the first joint assembly 53, and a third pipe section connecting the first pipe section and the second pipe section and being bent. The length direction of the turning arm 131 is the horizontal direction, and the axial extension direction of the first joint assembly 53 is the vertical direction. The third pipe section can connect the first pipe section extending along the horizontal direction and the second pipe section extending along the vertical direction. As Figure 10 shown, the third pipe section is bent in an approximately right angle. Referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the third pipe section is located at a position corresponding to the rotating shaft 132 in the height direction (that is, at a position basically flush with the height of the rotating shaft 132), or at a position higher than the rotating shaft 132. That is to say, the third pipe section of the first feeding pipe 51 is not lower than the height of the rotation axis. This ensures that the first feeding pipe 51 has sufficient movement space and deformation space during the following rotation of the turning arm 131.
[0219] As described above, since this embodiment is provided with five seasoning bottles 21, five quick-insert interfaces 201, and five quick-insert connectors 54, correspondingly, the second feeding pipe 52, the pipe connectors on the first joint assembly 53, the first feeding pipe 51, and the pipe connectors of the second joint assembly 55 can also be provided with five. The present application does not limit the specific number of the second feeding pipe 52, the pipe connectors on the first joint assembly 53, the first feeding pipe 51, and the pipe connectors of the second joint assembly 55, as long as they are mutually matched.
[0220] It can be understood that the rotation radii of the first feeding pipes 51 connected to different pipe connectors are different when the rotating shaft 132 rotates. Specifically, the first feeding pipe 51 connected to the pipe connector farthest from the feeding port 133 has the largest rotation radius when the rotating shaft 132 rotates; the first feeding pipe 51 connected to the pipe connector closest to the feeding port 133 has the smallest rotation radius when the rotating shaft 132 rotates. In order to keep the deformation degrees of the multiple first feeding pipes 51 basically consistent during rotation, and avoid excessive deformation and mutual extrusion, the present application sets the multiple pipe connectors on the first joint assembly 53 at different heights, forming a height difference between the pipe connectors, so as to leave enough deformation space for the five first feeding pipes 51.
[0221] In addition, by setting the multiple pipe connectors on the first joint assembly 53 at different heights, the distances from each pipe connector to the second joint assembly 55 are adjusted to be the same, so that the multiple first feeding pipes 51 have the same length. This makes the cooking equipment in the present application easier to produce, and the lengths of the multiple first feeding pipes 51 are exactly the same, which is convenient for the staff to assemble.
[0222] Application Scenario 1
[0223] In a household scenario, a user uses a cooking device to cook dishes. The user can add ingredients into the pot body 12 when the cover body 130 rotates away from the pot body 12. The weighing sensor 3 can sense the change in the total weight of the pot body components, and thus the weight of the ingredients can be weighed. The cooking device can cook when the cover body 130 is closed to the pot body 12, and the cover body 130 can prevent splashing during the cooking process.
[0224] During the cooking process, the user needs to add seasonings into the pot body 12. First, the feeding device 2 needs to be installed on the main body 1. Specifically, the user plugs the male plug 20 of the feeding device 2 into the female socket 10 on the supporting member of the main body 1, so that the seasonings in the feeding device 2 can be transported to the feeding port 133 of the main body 1. Then the user can input the seasonings to be added and the target weight, and the peristaltic pump 23 in the feeding device 2 starts to work and pumps the seasonings out of the seasoning bottle 21.
[0225] Specifically, the seasoning passes through the feeding pipe 22, quick-connect interface 201, quick-connect joint 54, second feeding pipe 52, first joint assembly 53, first feeding pipe 51, second joint assembly 55, and feeding port 133 in sequence. Among them, the quick-connect joint 54 is arranged on the female socket 10, and there is a predetermined gap between the bearing seat 19 of the female socket 10 and the housing 11, so that the vibration generated during feeding by the feeding device 2 will not be transmitted to the pot body component. The seasoning is first transported from the feeding device 2 to the support component of the main machine 1 and then to the pot body component. Therefore, the feeding device 2 will not interfere with weighing, ensuring the accuracy of each weighing, and further ensuring that the calculated feeding weight is accurate enough.
[0226] The female socket 10 includes a female plug body 100 and a bearing seat 19. There is a degree of freedom of movement between the female plug body 100 and the bearing seat 19, and the movement range of the female plug body 100 relative to the bearing seat 19 does not exceed the range limited by the predetermined gap, so that the force generated during its movement can be blocked by the predetermined gap and will not be transmitted to the pot body component or affect weighing. When the quick-connect interface 201 and the quick-connect joint 54 cannot be accurately docked in height, the height position of the female plug body 100 can be slightly adjusted through the movement gap 105 provided between the female plug body 100 and the bearing seat 19, thus avoiding the deviation caused by production. The main machine 1 will not be subjected to external force in the height direction, ensuring the accuracy of weighing.
[0227] This application realizes the functions of static weighing of the main machine 1 and weighing of the seasoning simultaneously by using the weighing sensor 3 in the main machine 1, reducing the cost. Users do not need to weigh the seasoning separately, improving the user experience. The weighing sensor 3 in the main machine 1 can weigh the weight of the pot body component, thereby weighing the ingredients in the pot, thus realizing the static weighing function of the main machine 1. The feeding device 2 can supply materials to the pot body component through the feeding pipeline. The feeding device 2 is connected to the main machine 1 through the first connection part and the second connection part; since part of the feeding pipeline is fixed on the support component and there is a predetermined gap between the first connection part arranged on the support component and the pot body component, the feeding pipeline will only apply force to the support component of the main machine during feeding and will not apply force to the pot body component. In this way, the feeding process will not affect weighing, and the feeding weight can be determined by the weight of the pot body component weighed by the weighing sensor 3.
[0228] The input component 18, the pot body 12, and the feeding device 2 of the main machine 1 are arranged in sequence in the first direction. It can be understood that during the user's use of the cooking device, it is necessary to frequently control through the input component 18, but during the cooking process, the user basically does not need to replenish the seasoning into the feeding device 2. Therefore, the input component 18 is arranged on the front side close to the user, and the feeding device 2 is arranged on the rear side far from the user, making the structure of the cooking device further optimized and rationalized, improving the user experience.
[0229] Two load cells 3 may be provided. The two load cells 3 are arranged at intervals in the first direction, so that one of the load cells 3 or the lower support frame 32 connected to the load cell 3 is arranged close to the feeding device 2, which facilitates the assembly of the feeding device 2 and the lower support frame 32. The vibration generated by the feeding device 2 will not be transmitted to the pot body member, interfering with the accuracy of the load cell 3 in weighing the pot body member. In addition, the two load cells 3 can jointly support the weight of the entire pot body member, improving the stability.
[0230] The fixed ends 302 and the force-receiving ends 301 of the two load cells 3 arranged at intervals in the first direction extend in the second direction, so that the lower support frame 32 and the upper support frame 31 respectively fixed to the fixed ends 302 and the force-receiving ends 301 also extend in the second direction. In this way, the lengths of the lower support frame 32 and the upper support frame 31 are shortened as much as possible, reducing the processing difficulty and the processing cost.
[0231] A controller 61 and a fan 62 may be provided between the two load cells 3. The fan 62 and the controller 61 are arranged at intervals in the second direction. The airflow formed by the fan 62 blows at least partially towards the controller 61 in the second direction, thereby realizing air-cooled heat dissipation of the controller 61. In this application, the fan 62 is arranged between the two load cells 3, so that the center of gravity of the fan 62 is centered, improving the stability of the main unit 1. In this way, when the fan 62 is working, the main unit 1 hardly shakes, so it will not affect the load cell 3.
[0232] The main unit 1 includes a circuit assembly. The circuit assembly may include various circuits such as a power cord 41 and a material box connection line 42. The circuit assembly is provided with a fixing position on the support member, and the circuit assembly is fixed to the support member through the fixing position, thereby preventing the circuit assembly from transmitting vibration to the pot body member. Even if the user touches or pulls the circuit assembly during the use of the cooking device, the accuracy of the load cell 3 will not be disturbed.
[0233] Application Scenario 2
[0234] The user wants to add 10 grams of soy sauce into the pot body 12, and the cooking device will execute the following feeding method:
[0235] S102: Initial stage: Determine the target feeding weight of the target condiment; when the cooking device meets the preset conditions, obtain the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval; control the feeding device to convey the target condiment to the main unit through the feeding pipeline. Specifically, the user manually inputs the condiment bottle index information of soy sauce and sets the target feeding weight to 10 grams.
[0236] After determining the target feeding weight of the target condiment, the control unit obtains the temperature of the inner pot 12 of the main machine 1 through the NTC. At this time, the temperature of the inner pot 12 obtained by the NTC is greater than 100 °C, indicating that the inner pot 12 is in a boiling state. Therefore, it is determined that the cooking device meets the preset conditions and it is necessary to compensate for the weight lost due to the evaporation of water vapor, so as to avoid the problem of excessive feeding amount.
[0237] Obtain the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval, including:
[0238] Obtain the first weight value and the second weight value based on the first preset time interval, and determine the unit evaporation weight information according to the first preset time interval, the first weight value and the second weight value. The first weight value is 500 grams, the second weight value is 498 grams, and the first preset time interval is 2 seconds. At this time, the unit evaporation weight information is 1 gram / second, and 1 gram of water vapor will evaporate per second. Subsequently, this part of the evaporated weight needs to be compensated during the feeding process.
[0239] After calculating the unit evaporation weight information, the feeding program can be started. Before starting to convey the target condiment, the steps of the weighing stage need to be executed first.
[0240] S104: Weighing stage: Obtain the initial weight value weighed by the weighing sensor 3, and control the feeding device 2 to convey the target condiment to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline. The initial weight value is 496 grams, and the feeding device 2 starts to convey soy sauce to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline.
[0241] S106: Calculation stage: When the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, obtain the current weight value weighed by the weighing sensor, and calculate the fed weight based on the initial weight value, the current weight value and the unit evaporation weight information. Specifically, the preset duration threshold is 0.5 seconds. The current weight value obtained 0.5 seconds after starting the feeding is 500 grams, and the evaporation weight within 0.5 seconds is 0.5 grams. It can be calculated that: the fed weight is 500 - 496 + 0.5 = 4.5 grams.
[0242] S108: Determine the current feeding strategy according to the fed weight and the target feeding weight; when the current feeding strategy is continuous feeding, control the feeding device to convey the target condiment to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline, and continue to execute the calculation stage until the current feeding strategy is stop feeding. By comparing the fed weight with the target feeding weight, it is possible to determine whether the feeding is completed. Since the fed weight of 4.5 grams is less than the target feeding weight of 10 grams, it is determined that the current feeding strategy is continuous feeding.
[0243] The feeding device 2 continuously conveys the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline, and repeatedly executes steps S106 - S108 until the weight of the added material calculated in step S106 in a certain instance is greater than or equal to the target feeding weight, then the feeding device 2 can be controlled to stop conveying the target seasoning.
[0244] Application scenario three
[0245] The user wants to add 10 grams of soy sauce into the pot body 12 and sends a feeding instruction by pressing the input component 18 on the pot body component. When the user operates the input component 18, pressure will be exerted on the pot body component, which usually causes the weighing sensor 3 to remain unstable for 1 - 2 seconds after the pressing is completed. To ensure the accuracy of weighing, feeding should start after the weighing sensor 3 returns to stability.
[0246] The cooking device will execute the following feeding method:
[0247] S202: When receiving the feeding instruction, obtain multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within the second preset time interval, and determine the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the second preset time interval based on the multiple weight values.
[0248] The second preset time interval is 0.5 seconds, and the control unit reads the weight value of the weighing sensor 3 every 40 milliseconds, thus generating 12 - 13 readings. The weight value fluctuation information can be the extreme difference. The control unit can obtain the maximum and minimum values among these readings and obtain the extreme difference by taking the difference.
[0249] S204: When the weight value fluctuation information is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, perform the operation of obtaining multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within the second preset time interval and determining the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the second preset time interval based on the multiple weight values, and count the number of loop executions.
[0250] As described above, the weight value fluctuation information is the extreme difference, and the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, that is, the preset extreme difference threshold, is 1 gram. The extreme difference obtained in the first round of measurement is greater than or equal to 1 gram. At this time, the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state, and the previous step needs to be looped.
[0251] S206: When the weight value fluctuation information is less than the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, or the number of loop executions is greater than the preset number threshold, control the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the main machine 1 through the feeding pipeline.
[0252] In one case: When the number of loop executions reaches 3 times, that is, at 1.5 seconds after the pressing, the weight value fluctuation information, that is, the extreme difference, is less than 1 gram. At this time, the weight value fluctuation information is less than the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, so it is considered that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to the stable state and normal weighing work can be carried out.
[0253] In another case: the preset number threshold is set to 6 times. When the number of loop executions reaches 6 times, it means that 3 seconds have passed. Therefore, it is considered that the load cell 3 has returned to a stable state and can perform weighing work normally.
[0254] After ensuring that the load cell 3 has returned to stability and can perform weighing work normally, the current weight can be obtained as the initial weight value. Then, the feeding device 2 is controlled to convey soy sauce to the main body 1 through the feeding pipeline. During the feeding process, it is necessary to obtain the weight increment based on the initial weight value, so as to calculate the feeding weight. When the feeding weight reaches the target feeding weight (i.e., 10 grams) input by the user through the input component 18, the feeding device 2 can be controlled to stop conveying the target condiment.
[0255] Application scenario four
[0256] The user wants to add 10 grams of soy sauce into the pot body 12, and the cooking device will execute the following feeding method:
[0257] S302: Determine the target feeding weight of the target condiment. Specifically, the user manually inputs the index information of the soy sauce condiment bottle and sets the target feeding weight to 10 grams.
[0258] After determining the target feeding weight of the target condiment, the control unit obtains the temperature of the pot body 12 in the main body 1 through the NTC. At this time, the temperature of the pot body 12 obtained by the NTC is greater than 100 °C, indicating that the pot body 12 is in a boiling state. Therefore, it is determined that the cooking device meets the preset conditions and it is necessary to compensate for the weight lost due to the evaporation of water vapor, so as to avoid the problem of excessive feeding amount.
[0259] S304: When the cooking device meets the preset conditions, obtain the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval. Specifically, obtaining the unit evaporation weight information within the first preset time interval includes:
[0260] Obtain the first weight value and the second weight value based on the first preset time interval, and determine the unit evaporation weight information according to the first preset time interval, the first weight value and the second weight value. The first weight value is 500 grams, the second weight value is 498 grams, and the first preset time interval is 2 seconds. At this time, the unit evaporation weight information is 1 gram / second, and 1 gram of water vapor will evaporate per second. Subsequently, this part of the evaporated weight needs to be compensated during the feeding process.
[0261] S306: Obtain the initial weight value weighed by the load cell 3, and control the feeding device 2 to convey the target condiment to the main body 1 through the feeding pipeline. The initial weight value is 496 grams, and the feeding device 2 conveys soy sauce to the main body 1 through the feeding pipeline.
[0262] S308: When the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, obtain the current weight value measured by the weighing sensor 3, and determine the current feeding strategy based on the initial weight value, the current weight value, and the target feeding weight. Specifically, the preset duration threshold is 0.5 seconds, and the current weight value obtained 0.5 seconds after the start of feeding is 500 grams. The difference between the current weight value and the initial weight value is 4 grams, and the target feeding weight is 10 grams. Since the difference between the previous weight value and the initial weight value is less than the target feeding weight, the current feeding strategy is determined to be continuous feeding.
[0263] S310: When the current feeding strategy is continuous feeding, update the target feeding weight based on the unit evaporation weight information, and continue to execute the operation of obtaining the current weight value measured by the weighing sensor 3 when the feeding duration reaches the preset duration threshold, and determining the current feeding strategy according to the initial weight value, the current weight value, and the updated target feeding weight. As described above, the current weight value obtained in the first round is 500 grams, and the evaporation weight within the preset duration threshold of 0.5 seconds is 0.5 grams. The target weight needs to be updated to 9.5 grams.
[0264] The feeding device 2 continuously transports the target seasoning to the host 1 through the feeding pipeline, and repeatedly executes steps S308 - S110 until the difference between the current weight value calculated in step S308 in a certain instance and the initial weight value is greater than the target feeding weight after the last update, then the feeding device 2 can be controlled to stop transporting the target seasoning.
[0265] Application Scenario Five
[0266] The user wants to add 10 grams of soy sauce into the pot body 12. At this time, the pot body 12 is in a boiling state, which causes the weighing sensor 3 to be in an unstable state. To ensure the accuracy of weighing, feeding should start after the weighing sensor 3 returns to stability.
[0267] The cooking device will execute the following feeding method:
[0268] S402: When receiving a feeding instruction, obtain multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within a preset time interval, and determine the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the preset time interval according to the multiple weight values.
[0269] The second preset time interval is 0.5 seconds. The control unit reads the weight value of the weighing sensor 3 every 40 milliseconds, thereby generating 12 - 13 readings. The weight value fluctuation information can be the extreme value difference. The control unit can obtain the maximum and minimum values among these readings and obtain the extreme value difference by taking the difference.
[0270] S404: When the extreme difference information of the weight value fluctuations is greater than or equal to a preset weight value fluctuation threshold, the operation of obtaining multiple weight values of the weighing sensor 3 within a preset time interval and determining the weight value fluctuation information corresponding to the preset time interval based on the multiple weight values is performed again.
[0271] As described above, the weight value fluctuation information is the extreme difference, and the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, i.e., the preset extreme difference threshold, is 1 g. The extreme difference obtained in the first round of measurement is greater than or equal to 1 g. At this time, the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state, and the previous step needs to be looped.
[0272] In an embodiment of the present application, the feeding method further includes: reducing the heating power when the weight value fluctuation information is greater than or equal to the preset weight value fluctuation threshold. When the weighing sensor 3 is still in an unstable state, it is necessary to control the heating module 120 to reduce the heating power, thereby reducing the temperature of the pot body 12 and eliminating the boiling state in the pot, so as to avoid the influence of boiling on weighing.
[0273] S406: When the weight value fluctuation information is less than the preset weight value fluctuation threshold, control the feeding device 2 to convey the target seasoning to the host 1 through the feeding pipeline.
[0274] After a certain cycle, the weight value fluctuation information, i.e., the extreme difference, is less than 1 g. At this time, the weight value fluctuation information is less than the preset weight value fluctuation threshold. Therefore, it is considered that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to a stable state and can perform the weighing work normally.
[0275] When it is ensured that the weighing sensor 3 has returned to stability and can perform the weighing work normally, the current weight can be obtained as the initial weight value, and then the feeding device 2 is controlled to convey soy sauce to the host 1 through the feeding pipeline. During the feeding process, it is necessary to obtain the weight value increment based on the initial weight value, so as to calculate the feeding weight. When the feeding weight reaches the target feeding weight (i.e., 10 g), the feeding device 2 can be controlled to stop conveying the target seasoning.
[0276] After the feeding is completed, the heating module 120 can be controlled to restore the normal heating power, so as to continue cooking.
[0277] Application Scenario Six
[0278] In a household scenario, a user uses a cooking device to cook. The host 1 of the cooking device includes a base body and a turning arm 131. The turning arm 131 is hinged to the base body through a rotating shaft 132, so that the cover body 130 can cover or leave the pot body 12. The user can add ingredients into the pot body 12 when the cover body 130 rotates away from the pot body 12; the cooking device can cook when the cover body 130 covers the pot body 12, and the cover body 130 can prevent splashing during the cooking process.
[0279] During the cooking process, the user needs to add seasonings into the pot body 12. First, the feeding device 2 needs to be installed on the main machine 1. Specifically, a female socket 10 is provided on the base body of the main machine 1, and a male plug 20 is provided on the feeding device 2. The user plugs the male plug 20 into the female socket 10, so that the seasonings in the feeding device 2 can be transported to the feeding port 133 of the main machine 1. Then the user can input the seasonings to be added and the target weight, and the peristaltic pump 23 in the feeding device 2 starts to work and pumps the seasonings out of the seasoning bottle 21.
[0280] Driven by the peristaltic pump 23, the seasonings in the seasoning bottle 21 flow through the feeding pipe, the turning arm 131, and the feeding port 133 and then flow into the pot body 12 through the feeding pipe 22, the quick-connect interface 201, the quick-connect joint 54, the second feeding pipe 52, the first joint assembly 53, the first feeding pipe 51, the second joint assembly 55, and the feeding port 133 in sequence, so as to enter the interior of the pot body 12.
[0281] The present application provides a cooking device in which the main machine 1 and the feeding device 2 are plugged and connected. Specifically, the first connecting portion on the main machine 1 and the second connecting portion on the feeding device 2 can be directly plugged together to form a rigid connection structure. There is no longer a need to connect the main machine 1 and the feeding device 2 with a flexible feeding pipe, thus simplifying the accessories of the cooking device and reducing the cost of the cooking device. Further, the first connecting portion is provided on the base body of the main machine 1 instead of the turning arm 131, so that the feeding device 2 and the turning arm 131 are independent of each other, avoiding interference between the turning arm 131 and the feeding device 2. When the feeding device 2 is plugged on the main machine 1, the turning arm 131 can still rotate relative to the base body to perform operations such as opening and closing the lid, and the user does not need to frequently plug and unplug the feeding device 2, thus improving the user experience.
