Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of household appliance technology, and more particularly to an electric kettle. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the touch control button layout of touch-sensitive electric kettles mainly includes the following two layout methods: Firstly, most products place the touch controls on the side of the kettle. During use, after placing the kettle back on the base while holding the handle, users need to rotate the kettle 90° to operate the controls if they wish to start the kettle or perform related settings. This design is not only cumbersome but can also cause wear and tear on the connecting parts between the kettle and the base due to frequent rotation, affecting the kettle's lifespan.

[0003] Secondly, some products have improved ease of use by placing the touch controls at the top of the handle. However, because the space at the top of the handle is occupied by the touch controls, the lid opening mechanism must be designed at the top of the lid. In actual use, when the user opens the lid, the hot steam that rushes out of the kettle can easily hit the user's hands or face, posing a risk of burns and also reducing the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] This application aims to at least solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, this application proposes an electric kettle that aims to solve the problem of inconvenient operation caused by the layout of the touch buttons on the electric kettle.

[0005] An embodiment of this application provides an electric kettle, comprising: The kettle body includes a kettle body and a kettle lid, wherein the kettle lid is rotatably mounted on the kettle body; The handle structure includes a handle and a touch display module. The handle is installed on the side wall of the kettle body and has a touch display area. The touch display module includes a main controller and a touch component and a display component electrically connected to the main controller. The touch component and the display component are disposed in the touch display area.

[0006] Furthermore, the handle structure includes an anti-mistouch detection module, which is electrically connected to the main controller. The anti-mistouch detection module is used to obtain the current state of the handle, and the main controller is used to determine whether to respond to the touch component being triggered based on the current state of the handle.

[0007] Furthermore, the accidental touch prevention detection module includes an accidental touch prevention controller and at least one sensor. The accidental touch prevention controller is electrically connected to the main controller and the sensor, respectively. The sensor is installed on at least one of the inner and outer sides of the handle. The sensor is used to detect the capacitance or pressure value at its location. The accidental touch prevention controller is used to determine the current state of the handle based on the detection result of the sensor.

[0008] Furthermore, a sensor is provided on both the inner and outer sides of the handle; or, at least one of the inner and outer sides of the handle is provided with multiple sensors.

[0009] Furthermore, the sensing element includes a metal sensing sheet or a sensing spring.

[0010] Furthermore, the handle structure includes a lid-opening mechanism, which is mounted on the handle and is used to control the opening or closing of the lid.

[0011] Furthermore, the opening mechanism includes an opening switch, which is mounted on the upper part of the handle.

[0012] Furthermore, the handle includes a bottom shell and an outer shell, the outer shell being detachably mounted on the bottom shell, the bottom shell and the outer shell enclosing an installation space, wherein the touch display module and the anti-mistouch detection module are disposed within the installation space.

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0020] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of this application discloses an electric kettle, including a kettle body and a handle structure.

[0021] Specifically, the kettle body includes a kettle body 110 and a kettle lid 120, with the kettle lid 120 rotatably mounted on the kettle body 110; the handle structure includes a handle and a touch display module 220, wherein the handle is mounted on the side wall of the kettle body 110, and the handle is provided with a touch display area; the touch display module 220 includes a main controller 221 and a touch component 223 and a display component 222 electrically connected to the main controller 221, with the touch component 223 and the display component 222 disposed in the touch display area.

[0022] In the electric kettle provided in this application, the touch display module 220 is mounted on the handle. When the electric kettle is placed on the base, the direction of the handle is the same as the direction of the touch display module 220. Thus, the touch display module 220 can be directly facing the user without rotating the electric kettle, making it convenient for the user to operate the touch display module 220. This improves the ease of operation, avoids wear and tear on the connecting parts caused by frequent rotation of the kettle body, and extends the service life of the electric kettle.

[0023] Furthermore, the anti-mistouch detection module is electrically connected to the main controller. The anti-mistouch detection module is used to obtain the current state of the controller, and the main controller is used to determine whether to respond to the touch component being triggered based on the current state of the controller.

[0024] The current state of the controller includes a held state and a non-held state. When the controller is in a held state, the main controller 221 determines, based on the current state of the controller, that it will not respond to the operation triggered by the touch component 223. In other words, even if the user accidentally touches the touch component 223, the main controller 221 will not execute the corresponding program or action of the touch component 223. When the anti-accidental touch detection module 230 determines that the current state of the controller is a non-held state and the touch component 223 is triggered, the main controller 221 will normally execute the program or action triggered by the touch component 223.

[0025] In the embodiments of this application, after the touch display module 220 is placed in the touch display area of ​​the handle, it is easy for the touch display module 220 to be accidentally triggered when the user holds the handle. Therefore, the above embodiments, by setting an anti-accidental touch detection module 230 on the handle, can reduce the situation of accidental operation caused by the user accidentally triggering the touch display module 220 when holding the handle. In other words, by arranging the touch display module 220 on the handle, the embodiments of this application solve the problem of inconvenience caused by the unreasonable layout of the touch buttons on the electric kettle, and also avoid the problem of accidental triggering caused by the touch display module 220 being placed on the handle by setting the anti-accidental touch detection module 230, which helps to improve the user experience.

[0026] It is worth noting that the main controller 221 can be an MCU (microcontroller unit), a CPU (central processing unit), or other controllers, without any limitation here.

[0027] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The accidental touch detection module 230 includes an accidental touch controller 231 and at least one sensor 232. The accidental touch controller 231 is electrically connected to the main controller 221 and the sensor 232. The sensor 232 is installed on at least one of the inner side 213 and the outer side 214 of the handle. The sensor 232 is used to detect the capacitance or pressure value at its location. The accidental touch controller 231 is used to determine the current state of the handle based on the detection result of the sensor 232. Specifically, when any sensor 232 detects the capacitance or pressure value at its location, the accidental touch controller 231 compares the capacitance or pressure value obtained by the sensor 232 with a preset capacitance or pressure threshold. When the difference between the two is greater than or equal to the trigger threshold, it means that the user is in contact with the inner side 213 and / or the outer side 214 of the handle, that is, the user is holding the handle and the handle is in a held state. When the difference between the two is less than the trigger threshold, it means that the handle is in a non-held state.

[0028] In the above embodiments, the sensor 232 can be disposed inside the handle, or it can be directly disposed on the inner side 213 and / or the outer side 214 of the handle.

[0029] It is worth understanding that the inner side 213 of the handle is the side of the handle closest to the body 110; the side of the handle directly opposite the inner side 213 is the front side 215 of the handle; and the outer side 214 is the side located between the inner side 213 and the front side 215, as... Figure 1 As shown.

[0030] In some embodiments of this application, a sensor 232 is provided on both the inner side 213 and the outer side 214 of the handle. The sensor 232 is positioned where the user's hand grips the handle. When the user grips the handle, the sensor 232 can detect the state of the handle in a timely manner.

[0031] In other embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, at least one of the inner surface 213 and the outer surface 214 of the handle is provided with a plurality of sensors 232. For example, both the inner surface 213 and the outer surface 214 of the handle are provided with a plurality of sensors 232. Therefore, when a user's hand comes into contact with any one of the sensors 232 on the inner surface 213 and the outer surface 214 of the handle, it can be detected by the sensor 232. This increases the area of ​​the anti-mistouch detection area of ​​the touch display module 220, which helps to reduce the probability of the touch component 223 being accidentally triggered.

[0032] It is understandable that the positions of each sensor 232 can be set according to the grip area on the handle to ensure that the sensor 232 can detect whether the user is gripping the handle.

[0033] In some embodiments of this application, the sensing element 232 includes a metal sensing sheet or a sensing spring. The metal sensing sheet or sensing spring is electrically connected to the anti-mistouch controller 231. The metal sensing sheet or sensing spring performs capacitance or pressure detection at its location and transmits the detection data to the anti-mistouch controller 231. After processing by the anti-mistouch controller 231, the current state of the handle is identified, and the current state of the handle is transmitted to the main controller 221 to prevent the main controller 221 from mistakenly responding to programs or instructions triggered by the touch component 223.

[0034] In the embodiments of this application, the anti-accidental touch controller 231 may be an MCU (microcontroller), a CPU (central processing unit), etc.

[0035] In some embodiments of this application, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The handle structure includes a lid-opening mechanism 240, which is installed inside the handle and is used to control the opening or closing of the kettle lid 120. In this embodiment, by installing the lid-opening mechanism 240 on the handle, when opening the kettle lid 120, it is possible to prevent the user from being scalded by the steam in the electric kettle, thus improving the safety of use.

[0036] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The lid opening mechanism 240 includes a lid opening switch 241, which is located on the upper part of the handle to facilitate opening the lid.

[0037] In one possible application scenario, please continue to see Figure 1 and Figure 2The lid-opening mechanism 240 includes a lid-opening switch 241 and an opening / closing structure 242. The lid-opening switch 241 is mounted on the upper part of the handle, and the opening / closing structure 242 is disposed between the lid-opening switch 241 and the lid 120. The lid-opening switch 241 controls the opening / closing structure 242 to drive the lid 120 to rotate. Thus, the lid 120 can be opened by controlling the lid-opening switch 241. In this embodiment, the lid-opening switch 241 is located on the upper part of the handle. When the user opens the lid 120 using the lid-opening switch 241, the hot air inside the kettle body 110 will not rush to the back of the lid 120, thereby reducing the risk of the user being burned by the hot air inside the kettle body 110.

[0038] The rotation axis of the lid 120 is perpendicular to the plane where the handle is located, and the rotation axis of the lid 120 and the water outlet of the pot body 110 are respectively located on both sides of the pot body 110.

[0039] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The top of the handle is equipped with an independent mechanical lid-opening switch 241. The opening and closing structure 242 includes a stainless steel linkage rod. The lid-opening switch 241 is connected to the locking mechanism of the lid 120 through the stainless steel linkage rod. When the lid-opening switch 241 is pressed, the stainless steel linkage rod transmits pressure downward, unlocking the locking mechanism of the lid 120. The lid 120 slowly springs up to a safe angle (e.g., about 15°) under the action of the built-in spring. In this way, the lid-opening operation can be completed entirely on the handle, avoiding direct contact between the user and the hot top of the lid 120.

[0040] In some embodiments of this application, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The handle includes a base shell 211 and an outer shell 212. The outer shell 212 is detachably mounted on the base shell 211. The base shell 211 and the outer shell 212 enclose an installation space 216, in which the touch display module and the anti-mistouch detection module 230 are disposed. Specifically, the outer shell 212 is provided with a clearance hole 2121 for the cover opening switch 241 to pass through, so that the cover opening switch 241 passes through the outer shell 212 and extends to the outside, thereby facilitating the user to press the cover opening switch 241.

[0041] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 A scale 250 is provided on the bottom shell 211, which is set with scale information to display the volume information of the pot body 110.

[0042] In some embodiments of this application, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The touch display module includes a main control PCBA, which is equipped with a main controller, touch components and display components; and / or, the accidental touch detection module includes an accidental touch prevention PCBA, which is equipped with an accidental touch prevention controller.

[0043] See Figure 3 In one embodiment of this application, the control steps for the electric kettle include: S110, Obtain the current state of the handle, including the gripped state and the non-gripped state; S120, the current state is determined to be the gripped state, and the main controller 221 does not respond to the touch component 223 being triggered; S130, the current state is determined to be a non-grip state, and the main controller 221 responds to the touch component 223 being triggered.

[0044] In this embodiment, when the handle is in a gripped state, the inner side 213 and the outer side 214 of the handle will come into contact with the user's hand. At this time, the capacitance value or pressure value of at least one of the inner side 213 and the outer side 214 of the handle can be detected, and the detection result can be compared with a preset threshold to confirm whether the user's hand is in contact with the handle, thereby confirming the current state of the handle.

[0045] In one possible implementation, when the anti-mistouch controller 231 determines that the handle is in a gripped state, the anti-mistouch controller 231 sends a low-level shielding signal to the main controller 221. At this time, the input signal of the touch component 223 in the handle is shielded, that is, the main controller 221 does not respond to the instruction that the touch component 223 is triggered.

[0046] Furthermore, the step of obtaining the current state of the controller includes: Obtain the capacitance or pressure value of at least one of the inner surface 213 and the outer surface 214 of the handle; When the capacitance value is greater than or equal to the preset capacitance threshold, or the pressure value is greater than or equal to the preset pressure threshold, the current state is determined to be the gripped state. When the capacitance value is less than the preset capacitance threshold, or the pressure value is less than the preset pressure threshold, the current state is determined to be a non-grip state.

[0047] Furthermore, the anti-mistouch detection module 230 includes multiple sensors 232, and the step of acquiring the current state of the controller includes: The capacitance or pressure value corresponding to each sensor 232 is obtained, and the stable capacitance or pressure value is obtained through digital filtering. The difference between the calculated stable capacitance value or stable pressure value and the dynamic threshold capacitance value or pressure difference; The system determines whether the capacitance difference or pressure difference reaches the trigger threshold. Specifically, when the capacitance difference is greater than or equal to the trigger threshold, the handle's current state is determined to be in a gripped state; when the capacitance difference is less than the trigger threshold, the handle's current state is determined to be in a non-gripped state. Similarly, when the pressure difference is greater than or equal to the trigger threshold, the handle's current state is determined to be in a gripped state; when the pressure difference is less than the trigger threshold, the handle's current state is determined to be in a non-gripped state.

[0048] Thus, in this embodiment, by simultaneously detecting the capacitance or pressure values ​​at different locations in the handle using multiple sensors 232, multiple detection points can be detected to determine the current state of the handle, thereby increasing the anti-accidental touch recognition area and helping to improve the accuracy of detection.

[0049] The electric kettle of this application embodiment is described in detail below with a specific example. It should be noted that the following embodiment is merely an exemplary description and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of this application.

[0050] See Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the electric kettle in this embodiment includes a kettle body and a handle structure. The kettle body includes a kettle body 110 and a kettle lid 120; the handle structure includes a handle, a touch display module 220, and an anti-mistouch detection module 230. The handle has a touch display area. The touch display module 220 is integrated into a main control PCBA, which integrates a main controller 221, a touch component 223, and a display component 222. The main controller 221 is specifically a main MCU. The touch display area is divided into a touch recognition area and a display area. The touch component 223 is located in the touch recognition area, and the display component 222 is located in the display area. The anti-mistouch detection module 230 is integrated into an anti-mistouch PCBA, which integrates an anti-mistouch controller 231. The main controller 221 and the anti-mistouch controller 231 are connected via a circuit bus (such as an I²C / SPI interface). The handle includes a bottom shell 211 and an outer shell 212. The bottom shell 211 is directly connected to the side wall of the kettle body 110, and the outer shell 212 is mounted on the bottom shell 211. The inner side 213 and outer side 214 of the bottom shell 211 are provided with anti-accidental touch detection areas. Each anti-accidental touch detection area is provided with one or more metal sensing plates or sensing springs. Each metal sensing plate or sensing spring is electrically connected to the anti-accidental touch controller 231. In this embodiment, the anti-accidental touch controller 231 is specifically an anti-accidental touch MCU. By performing capacitance detection through the metal sensing plates or sensing springs and processing by the anti-accidental touch MCU, the current state of the handle can be determined. That is, the anti-accidental touch MCU can determine whether the current state of the handle is a held state or a non-held state through calculation, and transmit the identified current state of the handle to the main MCU so that the main MCU responds to the touch command only when the handle is in a non-held state and the touch component 223 in the touch display module 220 is triggered.

[0051] It is worth understanding that in some other embodiments, the touch display module 220 and the anti-mistouch detection module 230 can be integrated on the same circuit board.

[0052] In this embodiment, see Figure 4 The anti-accidental touch control is implemented based on multi-touch point fusion and dynamic threshold algorithm, specifically including: The current state recognition algorithm for the controller: The following steps are executed via the MCU to prevent accidental touches: 1) Real-time acquisition of capacitance values ​​(ΔC1, ΔC2, ... ΔCn) of multiple metal sensing plates on the inner side 213 and outer side 214 of the bottom shell 211 or real-time acquisition of pressure signals (F1, F2, ... Fn) of multiple sensing springs, and obtaining stable values ​​through digital filtering.

[0053] 2) Accurately determine the change in contact value through dynamic thresholds to identify whether there is human contact at the contact point.

[0054] 3) Determine the current state of the handle as "held state" or "not held state" through the preset model.

[0055] When the anti-accidental touch MCU determines that the current state of the handle is "being held", the anti-accidental touch MCU sends a low-level shielding signal to the main MCU. At this time, the input signal of the touch display module 220 is shielded.

[0056] In the above embodiment, the specific steps for determining whether the handle is in a gripped state are as follows: When the user lifts the electric kettle, multiple metal induction plates or induction springs on the outer side 214 and inner side 213 of the bottom shell 211 of the handle are triggered synchronously due to the contact of the palm. The anti-accidental touch MCU determines that the current state of the handle is "gripped state" by calculating the capacitance difference (or superimposing the pressure signal) and sends a shielding command to the main MCU to temporarily disable the main MCU from responding to the operation signal triggered by the touch display module 220.

[0057] When the handle is in a non-grip state and the touch display module 220 is triggered (such as adjusting the temperature, starting the heating function, etc.), the anti-accidental touch MCU transmits a "non-grip state" signal to the main MCU, and the main MCU receives and executes the touch command triggered by the touch display module 220.

[0058] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, a lid-opening mechanism 240 is provided at the top of the handle. One end of the lid-opening mechanism 240 is a lid-opening switch 241 with a mechanical button-like design at the top of the handle, and the other end is connected to the opening and closing structure 242 of the kettle lid 120. When the lid-opening switch 241 is pressed, the lid-opening mechanism 240 drives the kettle lid 120 to open, so that the lid-opening operation does not need to be performed at the top of the kettle lid 120, thereby avoiding the user being scalded by the hot steam gushing from the kettle.

[0059] In this embodiment, an independent mechanical lid-opening switch 241 is provided at the top of the handle. The opening and closing structure 242 includes a stainless steel linkage rod. The lid-opening switch 241 is connected to the locking mechanism of the lid 120 through the stainless steel linkage rod. When the lid-opening switch 241 is pressed, the stainless steel linkage rod transmits pressure downward, unlocking the locking mechanism of the lid 120. The lid 120 slowly springs up to a safe angle (e.g., about 15°) under the action of the built-in spring. In this way, the lid-opening operation can be completed entirely on the handle, avoiding direct contact between the user and the hot top of the lid 120.
