[0022] Figures 5 to 8 for Figure 4 A partial enlarged view of . DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0024] See Figure 1A high-frequency pressure acquisition module comprises a power module, a control module, and an acquisition module. The power module connects to an external power supply and steps down the voltage of the external power supply to output internal power. The control module is connected to the output terminal of the power module, which supplies power to the control module. The acquisition module comprises a sensor, an acquisition component, and a state switching component, all connected in sequence. The acquisition component is connected to the power module and the control module, respectively, and the state switching component is connected to the control module. The acquisition component transmits the sensor acquisition signal to the control module, which controls the switching of the state switching component based on the received acquisition signal. The acquisition component controls the acquisition frequency based on the switching of the state switching component. This allows the acquisition circuit to trigger the control module to control the switching of the state switching component, thereby controlling the acquisition frequency, based on the sensor acquisition signal. This eliminates the need for the acquisition circuit to maintain high-frequency acquisition for extended periods, saving energy. Furthermore, when acquisition is truly needed, high-frequency acquisition can be performed to ensure information integrity. In this embodiment, the low-frequency acquisition frequency is 7Hz-15Hz, and the high-frequency acquisition frequency is 70Hz-100Hz. More preferably, the low frequency of the acquisition frequency is 10 Hz, and the high frequency of the acquisition frequency is 80 Hz.

[0025] participate Figure 2 The power module includes a voltage drop chip U811, which adjusts the external 5V power supply to 3.3V before outputting it.

[0026] See Figure 3 The acquisition module includes an acquisition chip U807. The clock pin PD_SCK and data pin DOUT of the acquisition chip U807 are connected to the control module. The digital input pin RATE of the acquisition chip U807 is connected to the state switching component. The acquisition chip U807 changes the acquisition frequency according to the opening and closing of the state switching component.

[0027] The state switching component includes a transistor Q104. The base of the NPN transistor Q104 is connected to the control module, the collector is connected to the output end of the power module through the resistor R849, and the emitter is grounded; the collector of the NPN transistor Q104 and the common end of the resistor R849 are also connected to the digital input pin RATE of the acquisition chip U807.

[0028] The control module's control signal SW_CTL controls the switching state of transistor Q104. When SW_CTL outputs a high level, Q104 is turned on, the 15pin of the acquisition chip U807 is grounded and at a low level, and the acquisition chip U807 is in a low-frequency data acquisition state. When SW_CTL outputs a low level, transistor Q104 is turned off, the 15pin of the acquisition chip U807 is at a high level, and U807 switches to a high-frequency data acquisition state.

[0029] The sensor's power supply is connected to the 3.3V output of the power module via a switch Q804. The base of the switch Q804 is connected to the BASE pin of the data acquisition chip U807. In this embodiment, the data acquisition chip U807 uses the HX711. The switch Q804 is a PNP transistor. The base of the switch Q804 is connected to the BASE pin of the data acquisition chip U807, the emitter is connected to the output of the power module, and the collector is connected to the power supply of the sensor.

[0030] The sensor of this embodiment adopts a four-wire pressure sensor. The positive electrode of the power supply is connected to the AVDD pin of the acquisition chip through the inductor FB703, the negative electrode of the power supply is grounded, and the signal line is connected to the input pins INNA and INPA of the acquisition chip.

[0031] See Figure 4 In conjunction with Figure 1 The acquisition module also includes a system-on-chip (SOC) chip, which is connected to the control module's data transceiver pins (RXD and TXD). The SOC chip receives data from the control module and derives pattern data. The SOC chip can then perform in-depth analysis based on this data, identifying key information such as the user's eating patterns, eating times, and food intake. Machine learning algorithms can gradually optimize the analysis model and improve its accuracy.

[0032] The acquisition module also includes a wireless transmission module, which is connected to the output end of the power module and the SOC chip respectively. The wireless transmission module is used to transmit the mode data transmitted by the SOC chip to the terminal platform, such as the user's mobile phone APP, so that the user can understand the user's habits more intuitively.

[0033] This embodiment also provides a sampling container, including the above-mentioned high-frequency pressure acquisition module. The pressure sensor is arranged at the bottom of the sampling container. When no user is eating, the acquisition chip performs low-frequency acquisition, and the data transmitted by the pressure sensor does not change significantly. When the data transmitted by the pressure sensor increases significantly or fluctuates significantly, it is judged as eating, and the control module controls the acquisition chip to enter the high-frequency acquisition state through the state switching component.

[0034] The sampling container of this embodiment also includes an infrared sensor, which is arranged on the side wall or the mouth of the sampling container. When it detects that a user is approaching, the position signal of the user is sent to the acquisition chip, and then to the control module. The control module inputs a high level to the state switching component, thereby controlling the acquisition chip to enter the high-frequency acquisition state.

[0035] The foregoing description shows and describes preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the form disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. Rather, the present invention can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments and can be modified within the scope of the present invention through the above teachings or techniques or knowledge in the relevant field.
