Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of atomization, and particularly to a non-combustion heating device and its control method.
Background Art
[0002] Currently, existing HNB (Heat Not Burning, non-combustion heating device) requires preheating for a certain period of time (usually 5 seconds or more) before use. Furthermore, continuous heating is also required throughout the puff process to keep the aerosol-forming matrix (e.g., tobacco) in a set high-temperature state and ensure a rapid response to the next puff process. Based on this, the general usage method of the current HNB is as follows. After the user inserts the tobacco, heating is started, and the user waits for the preheating to complete before taking a puff. Also, between each puff interval, it is necessary to maintain the tobacco at a relatively high temperature by heating. Therefore, in this method, the user cannot take a puff until the preheating is completed, resulting in a long waiting time and a poor customer experience. Furthermore, after each puff, the heating process cannot be stopped immediately, and continuous heating and heat preservation still continue, resulting in a large power loss.

[Effects of the Invention]
[0015] By implementing the technical solution of the present invention, the heating assembly is located on the outer periphery of the aerosol-forming matrix and is offset from the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix. Further, each time the puff ends, the heating assembly and / or the aerosol-forming matrix are controlled to rotate about the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix, causing a new displacement in the circumferential direction of the aerosol-forming matrix for both. In this way, when the user takes the next puff, the heating assembly only heats a part of the area of the aerosol-forming matrix, so that the temperature of the aerosol-forming matrix in this area can be quickly raised to a puffable temperature, thereby atomizing and generating an aerosol. Further, since the heating assembly heats different areas of the aerosol-forming matrix each time a puff is taken, the aerosol-forming matrix is heated separately by segment in the circumferential direction. Based on this, the non-combustion heating device can detect in real time whether a puff operation has occurred after startup. Further, when a puff operation occurs, the heating assembly is controlled to heat and maintained at a predetermined target temperature. Therefore, when the user uses the non-combustion heating device, preheating of the aerosol-forming matrix is not required, so it is preheated without waiting, improving the user experience while reducing the power loss of the non-combustion heating device.

[Figure 2] It is a schematic diagram of the positions of the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix in the non-combustion heating device according to the present invention. [Figure 3] It is a schematic diagram for determining whether a puff operation has occurred based on the air pressure detection signal according to the present invention.
Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
[0017] Hereinafter, while referring to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0018] FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a first embodiment of a control method for a non-combustion heating device according to the present invention. First, the non-combustion heating device includes a heating assembly for heating an aerosol-forming matrix. The aerosol-forming matrix is, for example, cylindrical with a central axis. The heating assembly can have various forms such as a heating sheet, a heating needle, a heating rod, a heating wire, or a heating wire, or may be a combination of two or more different forms of heating devices described above.
[0019] As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in this embodiment, the heating assembly 100 is located on the outer periphery of the aerosol-forming matrix 200 and is offset from the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix 200. Further, the control method includes the following steps. Step S10: After startup, detect in real time whether a puff operation has occurred. In this step, the non-combustion heating device can be started by detecting a user's interaction operation (for example, long pressing a button, input by a microphone), or can also be automatically started when it detects that the aerosol-forming matrix has been inserted into the device. After startup, without preheating the aerosol-forming matrix, detect in real time whether a puff operation has occurred, that is, the user can wait for the puff operation to be performed.
[0020] Step S20: When detecting the occurrence of a puff operation, control the heating assembly to start heating and maintain it at a predetermined target temperature, so that the heating assembly heats the corresponding area of the aerosol-forming matrix. In this step, when the user performs a puff, i.e., when the occurrence of a puffing action is detected, the heating assembly is started and maintained at a predetermined target temperature. Furthermore, as shown in Figure 2, since the heating assembly 100 is located on the outer periphery of the aerosol-forming matrix 200 and offset from the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix 200, compared to existing central heating methods (where the heating assembly is inserted into the aerosol-forming matrix at least partially) and ambient heating methods (where the heating assembly is covered on the outer periphery of the aerosol-forming matrix), when the heating assembly is activated, only the region of the aerosol-forming matrix close to the heating assembly is heated. This allows the aerosol-forming matrix in this region to be rapidly heated up to a puffable temperature, thereby atomizing and generating an aerosol for the user to puff.
[0021] Furthermore, when controlling the heating assembly, a temperature measurement module can be installed to detect the temperature of the heating assembly in real time. Combined with a predetermined target temperature, this can be combined with a PID algorithm to control the heating assembly's temperature, thereby maintaining it at the target temperature. For example, if the heating assembly exceeds the target temperature, heating can be stopped or the power reduced. If the heating assembly falls below the target temperature, heating can be started or the power increased. In other words, each puff by the user is controlled as an independent puff process. The temperature measurement module may be mounted on the outer wall of the heating assembly and can be a thermistor or a temperature-measuring film. Since controlling the temperature of the heating assembly controls the temperature of the aerosol-forming matrix, it should be understood that while the temperatures of the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix are positively correlated, they are not necessarily identical. That is, in some embodiments, the temperature of the heating assembly can indicate the temperature of the aerosol-forming matrix.
[0022] The target temperature may be a single temperature range, for example, 230°C to 260°C. That is, when the user puffs, the normal operating temperature of the heating assembly is a single temperature range. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the target temperature may be a single specific temperature value. That is, when the user puffs, the temperature of the heating assembly is maintained at a constant value, for example, always at 250°C.
[0023] Step S30: When a stoppage of the puffing operation is detected, the heating assembly and / or the aerosol forming matrix are controlled to rotate about the central axis of the aerosol forming matrix, thereby causing a corresponding displacement of the heating assembly and the aerosol forming matrix in the circumferential direction of the aerosol forming matrix.
[0024] In this step, when the user stops puffing, i.e., when the cessation of the puffing operation is detected, the system controls the rotation of at least one of the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix, and after creating a new displacement in the circumferential direction of the aerosol-forming matrix in both, it waits for the user's next puff.
[0025] In the technical solution of this embodiment, the heating assembly is located on the outer periphery of the aerosol-forming matrix and offset from the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix. Furthermore, after each puff, the heating assembly and / or the aerosol-forming matrix are controlled to rotate around the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix, causing a new displacement of both in the circumferential direction of the aerosol-forming matrix. Thus, when the user puffs again, the heating assembly heats only a portion of the region of the aerosol-forming matrix, rapidly raising the temperature of that region of the aerosol-forming matrix to a puffable temperature, thereby enabling atomization and generation of aerosols. Moreover, since the heating assembly heats different regions of the aerosol-forming matrix with each puff, the aerosol-forming matrix is heated segment by segment in the circumferential direction. Based on this, the non-combustion heating device can detect in real time whether or not a puff operation has occurred after startup, and further, if a puff operation occurs, it controls the heating assembly to heat and maintain it at a predetermined target temperature. Therefore, when a user uses the non-combustion heating device, preheating of the aerosol-forming matrix is unnecessary, allowing for immediate preheating and improving the user experience, while also reducing power loss in the non-combustion heating device.
[0026] Furthermore, in one selectable embodiment, step S30 includes the following: When a stoppage of the puffing operation is detected, the heating of the heating assembly is stopped, or the heating assembly is controlled to heat and maintain at a predetermined second temperature lower than the target temperature, and the heating assembly and / or the aerosol forming matrix are controlled to rotate around the central axis of the aerosol forming matrix, thereby causing a displacement in the heating assembly and the aerosol forming matrix corresponding to the circumferential direction of the aerosol forming matrix.
[0027] In one embodiment, when the cessation of the puffing operation is detected, heating of the heating assembly is immediately stopped, and consequently, heating of the aerosol-forming matrix is also stopped. In this way, the user can quickly stop the heating process after each puff, and reheating is not performed until the next puffing operation is detected, thus reliably realizing the "puff and stop" function. Furthermore, since it is not necessary to continue heating and maintaining the temperature between two puffs, power loss in the non-combustion heating device is further reduced.
[0028] In another embodiment, when the cessation of the puffing operation is detected, the heating assembly is controlled to heat and maintain a predetermined second temperature lower than the target temperature, thereby reducing power loss in the non-combustion heating device.
[0029] Furthermore, in one selectable embodiment, step S20, in which the heating assembly heats the corresponding region of the aerosol-forming matrix, includes the step in which the heating assembly heats the corresponding region of the aerosol-forming matrix using a microwave radiation heating method. In this embodiment, since the aerosol-forming matrix is heated using a microwave radiation method, the microwave frequency is high and the radiated energy is high, so the heating assembly can be instantly heated up and the aerosol-forming matrix can be rapidly heated, thereby rapidly generating steam.
[0030] Furthermore, the implementation methods for controlling the heating assembly and / or the aerosol-forming matrix to rotate around the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix in step S30 include the following multiple methods: 1. When the aerosol-forming matrix is fixedly installed, the heating assembly is controlled to rotate by a predetermined angle in a predetermined first rotational direction around the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix. In this implementation, the aerosol-forming matrix remains fixed, and only the heating assembly is controlled to rotate by a predetermined angle in a predetermined first rotational direction around the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix. For example, the heating assembly can be rotated using a stepping motor. The first rotational direction may be clockwise or counterclockwise, but once the first rotational direction is determined, it should be understood that the rotation is performed in the same direction each time. The predetermined angle for each rotation may be set to be the same or to be different. In a specific application example, when the predetermined angle for each rotation is set to be the same, the total number of puffs that can be performed is determined in advance based on the size and composition of the aerosol-forming matrix, and then the predetermined angle Φ for each rotation is calculated using the following formula: Φ = 360° / N, where N is the total number of puffs that can be performed. For example, if N is 12, the predetermined angle for each rotation is 30°. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible to set the predetermined angles of each rotation so that they are not exactly the same.
[0031] 2. When the heating assembly is fixedly installed, the aerosol-forming matrix is controlled to rotate by a predetermined angle in a predetermined second rotational direction around its central axis. In this implementation, the heating assembly remains fixed, and only the aerosol-forming matrix is controlled to rotate by a predetermined angle in a predetermined second rotational direction around its central axis. For example, the rotation of the aerosol-forming matrix can be controlled by a stepping motor. The second rotational direction may be clockwise or counterclockwise, but once the second rotational direction is determined, it should be understood that the rotation is performed in the same direction each time. The predetermined angle for each rotation may be set to be the same or to be different. In a specific application example, when the predetermined angle for each rotation is set to be the same, the total number of puffs that can be performed is determined in advance based on the size and composition of the aerosol-forming matrix, and then the predetermined angle Φ for each rotation is calculated using the following formula: Φ = 360° / N, where N is the total number of puffs that can be performed. For example, if N is 12, the predetermined angle for each rotation will be 30°. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible to set the predetermined angle for each rotation to not be exactly the same.
[0032] 3. The heating assembly is controlled to rotate by a first angle in a predetermined first rotational direction about the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix, and the aerosol-forming matrix is controlled to rotate by a second angle in a predetermined second rotational direction about its central axis. In this implementation, the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix are controlled to rotate simultaneously. For example, the heating assembly is controlled by a first stepping motor, and the aerosol-forming matrix is controlled by a second stepping motor. In specific application examples, the first rotational direction and the second rotational direction in this implementation may be different. For example, one of the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix rotates clockwise about the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix, and the other rotates counterclockwise about the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix, so that the sum of the first angle and the second angle is equal to the predetermined angle in the above embodiment. Of course, in other application examples, the first rotational direction and the second rotational direction may be the same. For example, both the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix rotate clockwise around the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix, and thus the difference between the first and second angles is equal to the predetermined angle in the above embodiment. Furthermore, the predetermined angle corresponding to each rotation may be set to be the same or to be different. In a specific application example, when the predetermined angle for each rotation is set to be the same, the total number of puffs that can be performed is determined in advance based on the size and composition of the aerosol-forming matrix, and then the predetermined angle Φ for each rotation is calculated using the following formula: Φ = 360° / N, where N is the total number of puffs that can be performed. For example, if N is 12, the predetermined angle for each rotation will be 30°. Of course, in other embodiments, it is also possible to set the predetermined angles corresponding to each rotation to not be exactly the same.
[0033] Furthermore, in one selectable embodiment, after step S30, A step of recording the current number of rotations and determining whether the current number of rotations has reached a predetermined number, The further step includes outputting information indicating the end of puffing when a predetermined number of puffing cycles have been reached.
[0034] In this embodiment, a predetermined number of puffs can be set in advance based on the total number of puffs possible. The initial number of rotations is set to 0, and 1 is added to the number of rotations each time a rotation is performed. When the predetermined number of rotations is reached, the user is prompted to complete the puff, and this prompt can be output in the form of, for example, sound, vibration, or LED flashing. In a specific application example, if the predetermined number of rotations is 12, the user is prompted to complete the puff after taking 12 puffs, i.e., after the heating assembly and / or aerosol forming matrix have been controlled and rotated 12 times. At this time, even if the user performs further interactive actions, heating of the heating assembly will not start until the user replaces the aerosol forming matrix with a new one, and a new control process will start once it has been replaced.
[0035] Furthermore, in one selectable embodiment, step S30 involves stopping the heating of the heating assembly and controlling the heating assembly and / or the aerosol-forming matrix to rotate around the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix, The steps include stopping the heating of the heating assembly, A step of waiting for a predetermined time (0-150ms), The step includes controlling the heating assembly and / or the aerosol-forming matrix so that they rotate about the central axis of the aerosol-forming matrix.
[0036] In this embodiment, when the user finishes puffing, the heating of the heating assembly can be stopped immediately. At this time, since both the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix are at relatively high temperatures, the rotation function can be activated after waiting for a certain period of time for the temperatures of the heating assembly and the aerosol-forming matrix to drop slightly.
[0037] Furthermore, in one selectable embodiment, the step of detecting in real time whether or not a puffing action occurred in step S10 is: This includes acquiring an airflow detection signal in real time from an airflow sensor installed in the airflow passage, and determining whether or not a puffing action has occurred based on the airflow detection signal.
[0038] In this embodiment, an airflow sensor can be installed in the airflow passage of the non-combustion heating device. This airflow sensor can be a pressure sensor, such as a pressure microphone or a pressure MEMS. After the non-combustion heating device is started, an airflow detection signal is acquired from the airflow sensor in real time, and it is determined whether or not a puffing operation has occurred based on the airflow detection signal. In some other embodiments, the occurrence of a puffing operation can be detected by methods such as heat capacity detection or photosensitive detection.
[0039] Furthermore, the step of determining whether or not a puffing action has occurred based on the airflow detection signal is: The steps include determining whether the airflow detection signal exceeds a threshold, If the aforementioned airflow detection signal exceeds a threshold, the step of determining that a puffing operation has occurred, The method includes the step of determining that the puffing operation has stopped if the airflow detection signal does not exceed a threshold.
[0040] In a specific embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, the airflow sensor is a pressure difference sensor; that is, the output airflow detection signal is a pressure difference signal between the air pressure in the airflow passage and standard atmospheric pressure. A threshold value of standard atmospheric pressure or a pressure value close to standard atmospheric pressure is set, and the threshold value is shown by curve L1. When the user puffs, the detected pressure difference signal exceeds the threshold, and it can be determined that the puff operation has occurred at this time. When the user stops puffing, the detected pressure difference signal falls below the threshold, and it can be determined that the puff operation has stopped at this time. Furthermore, for each puff operation, when the pressure difference signal begins to exceed the threshold, a jump interrupt signal (rising edge trigger) is output to the processor. When the pressure difference signal begins to fall below the threshold, a jump interrupt signal (falling edge trigger) is output to the processor.
[0041] In other embodiments, two different thresholds can be set for the start and stop of puffing. For example, considering the trend of the differential pressure signal, it can be determined that puffing has occurred if the detected differential pressure signal exceeds the first threshold. It can be determined that puffing has stopped if the detected differential pressure signal falls below the second threshold. Furthermore, the user can customize the second threshold; for example, by setting it to a higher value than the first threshold, the heating process can be terminated earlier, further reducing losses.
[0042] The present invention also provides a non-combustion heating device comprising a processor, a memory storing a computer program, and a heating assembly for heating an aerosol-forming matrix, wherein the heating assembly is located on the outer periphery of the aerosol-forming matrix, and the processor implements the steps of the control method for the non-combustion heating device by executing the computer program.
[0043] The processor of the present invention provides computational and control capabilities and supports the operation of the entire non-combustion heating device. In the embodiments of this application, the processor may be a central processing unit (CPU), or it may be another general-purpose processor, a digital signal processor (DSP), an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), other programmable logic devices, discrete gates, transistor logic devices, discrete hardware components, etc. Here, the general-purpose processor may be a microprocessor, or any conventional processor, etc.
