Description

Consumables output control method, device, terminal equipment and readable storage medium Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of personal care equipment, and in particular to a method, apparatus, terminal device, and readable storage medium for controlling the output of consumables. Background Art

[0002] For existing personal care devices with automatic consumable delivery, if too much consumables are dispensed, it can easily lead to waste and even adversely affect the user's health. For example, with an electric toothbrush, if too much toothpaste is dispensed, it can not only lead to waste but also cause the user to overuse the toothpaste, leading to oral health problems and even accidental ingestion of the fluoride in the toothpaste, which can cause skeletal fluorosis and dental fluorosis. Therefore, precise control of the amount of consumables dispensed is necessary to guide users in brushing their teeth in a correct and healthy way.

[0003] However, since there is residual air in the consumables during filling, and there is a possibility of air accumulation in the consumable pipelines when the personal care equipment is used for the first time or after cleaning, the amount of consumables pushed out by the personal care equipment each time may deviate greatly, and the amount of consumables pushed out cannot be accurately controlled.

[0059] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field based on the embodiments of the present disclosure without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0060] The terms "first," "second," and the like in the specification and claims of this disclosure are used to distinguish similar objects and are not intended to describe a particular order or precedence. It should be understood that such terms are interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of this disclosure can be implemented in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the term "and / or" in the specification and claims refers to at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the connected objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0061] The consumables output control method provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is described in detail below with reference to Figures 1 to 11 through specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0062] As shown in FIG1 , the consumables output control method of the embodiment of the present disclosure includes the following steps:

[0063] Step 101: obtaining a current value of the consumable transfer pump at a preset time interval during a consumable transfer cycle of the consumable transfer pump of the smart terminal;

[0064] Step 102: determining the operating state of the consumable material transfer pump during the consumable material output cycle according to the current value;

[0065] Step 103 : When it is determined that the running state in the consumables output cycle is in an idle state, the running time of the consumables output cycle is adjusted.

[0066] Optionally, the preset time may be set to be as short as possible, for example, the preset time is 1 second.

[0067] It should be noted that the smart terminal may be a smart toothbrush, a beauty instrument, or a skin care instrument, and the consumables may be toothpaste or skin care products; the smart terminal includes a consumable bottle (e.g., a toothpaste bottle), a consumable transfer pump, a consumable transfer channel, and a consumable output end (e.g., a toothbrush head or a skin care product output end); the two interfaces of the consumable transfer pump are respectively connected to the consumable bottle and the consumable transfer channel;

[0068] The consumables are transferred from the consumable bottle to the consumable output end through the consumable transfer channel by the consumable transfer pump.

[0069] As shown in Figure 2, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the consumable transfer pump is a fluid pump, which is driven by a motor, and the operation of the motor and the fluid pump is controlled by a controller (Microcontroller Unit, MCU) and a control circuit to output the consumables from the consumable bottle to the consumable output end.

[0070] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the current value of the consumable transfer pump is collected by a control circuit, and a circuit diagram of the control circuit is shown in FIG3 :

[0071] The control circuit is connected in series to the circuit of the consumables transfer pump through the first resistor R7 to perform voltage division;

[0072] The current value of the consumable transfer pump is collected through the second resistor R8 or the capacitor C8, and the collected current value is sent to the controller so that the controller can obtain the current value of the consumable transfer pump in real time. The controller controls the operating parameters of the consumable transfer pump according to the current value, such as the speed, gear ratio and operating time of the consumable transfer pump.

[0073] Optionally, the consumables transfer pump is one of an air pump, a peristaltic pump, a gear pump, a screw pump and a rotor pump.

[0074] The consumables output control method of the embodiment of the present disclosure can determine the operating status of the consumables transfer pump by collecting the current value consumed by the consumables transfer pump, and thus adjust the operating time of the consumables transfer pump when it is determined that the consumables transfer pump is in an unloaded operating state. The operating time of the consumables transfer pump can be extended in the presence of bubbles during the transmission of consumables, thereby ensuring the stability of the consumables output. The embodiment of the present disclosure solves the problem of personal care equipment being unable to maintain consistency and stability in the consumables output due to bubbles in the consumables filling process or air in the consumables pipeline.

[0075] Optionally, determining the operating state of the consumable transfer pump during the consumable output cycle according to the current value includes:

[0076] When the current value is less than a first preset threshold, determining that the operating state of the consumable material transfer pump is no-load;

[0077] When the current value is greater than or equal to a first preset threshold value and less than a second preset threshold value, determining that the operating state of the consumable material transfer pump is a load;

[0078] When the current value is greater than or equal to a third preset threshold, determining that the operating state of the consumable material transfer pump is stuck;

[0079] The first preset threshold is smaller than the second preset threshold, and the second preset threshold is smaller than the third preset threshold.

[0080] Optionally, the operating state of the consumable material transfer pump is determined by the current value of the consumable material transfer pump;

[0081] Specifically, the operating status of the consumable material transfer pump is determined by detecting the current value of the consumable material transfer pump.

[0082] It should be noted that during the operation of the consumables transfer pump, if it is in a normal load situation, the current of the consumables transfer pump is within a relatively stable range;

[0083] During the operation of the consumables transfer pump, if there is no load, the current of the consumables transfer pump becomes smaller;

[0084] During the operation of the consumable transfer pump, if it gets stuck, the impedance of the consumable transfer pump will decrease sharply and the current will increase rapidly. However, since the hardware resistor R7 is connected in series inside the circuit, the current can be clamped in a relatively safe range.

[0085] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, during the operation of the consumable transfer pump, if the current value of the consumable transfer pump is less than the first preset threshold value, it is determined that the consumable transfer pump is in an unloaded state;

[0086] If the current value of the consumable transfer pump is less than the first preset threshold, it is determined that the consumable transfer pump is in an unloaded state (that is, the consumable currently being transferred contains bubbles);

[0087] If the current value of the consumable transfer pump is greater than or equal to a first preset threshold value and less than a second preset threshold value, it is determined that the consumable transfer pump is in a load state (i.e., there are no bubbles in the consumables currently being transferred);

[0088] If the current value of the consumable material transfer pump is greater than or equal to a third preset threshold, it is determined that the consumable material transfer pump is in a stuck state;

[0089] The first preset threshold may be 200 mA, the second preset threshold may be 300 mA, and the third preset threshold may be 500 mA.

[0090] Optionally, when it is determined that the running state exists in an idle state during the consumables output cycle, adjusting the running time of the consumables output cycle includes:

[0091] Determining the duration of time that the consumable transfer pump is in an unloaded state;

[0092] The running time of the consumable material output cycle is adjusted according to the duration.

[0093] The consumables output control method of the disclosed embodiment can determine the time occupied by the transmission bubbles in the current consumables output cycle by detecting the duration that the consumables transfer pump is in an no-load state, thereby extending the running time of the consumables output cycle, compensating for the time occupied by the transmission bubbles, and ensuring the consistency and stability of the consumables transfer amount in each consumables transfer cycle.

[0094] Optionally, adjusting the running time of the consumable output cycle according to the duration includes:

[0095] Determining a first moment when the consumable material transfer pump enters an idle state and a second moment when the consumable material transfer pump exits the idle state;

[0096] Determining a first duration, where the first duration is the duration required for the consumable to be transferred from the consumable transfer pump input end to the consumable output end of the smart terminal;

[0097] Determining a third time at the start of the consumables output cycle and a fourth time at the end of the consumables output cycle;

[0098] Determining a compensation duration for the consumables output cycle according to the first moment, the second moment, the third moment, the fourth moment, and the first duration;

[0099] The running time of the consumables output cycle is adjusted according to the compensation time.

[0100] It should be noted that the first duration is determined by pre-measurement;

[0101] Among them, the first duration is the time required for the consumables to travel from the input end of the consumable transfer pump (i.e., the connection between the consumable transfer pump and the consumable bottle) to the consumable output end of the smart terminal (such as a smart toothbrush head or a skin care product output head).

[0102] It should be noted that the consumables output cycle is a pre-set duration, and the consumables transmitted in each consumables output cycle are the consumables usage that can only be terminated at one time;

[0103] Among them, first, determine the amount of consumables required each time;

[0104] Then, the consumables output cycle is determined according to the amount of the consumables and the flow rate of the consumables transmitted by the smart terminal.

[0105] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the flow rate of the consumables transmitted by the smart terminal can be measured through testing (for example, when the entire cavity is filled with consumables, the consumables are fixedly pushed out for 10S and the consumables are weighed. For example, if the weight is 5g, then the flow rate of the consumables is 0.5g / s), and then the time required for the consumables to be pushed out (i.e., the consumables output cycle) can be calculated based on the actual demand for the consumables.

[0106] The consumables output control method of the embodiment of the present disclosure determines the first moment when the consumables transfer pump enters the no-load state and the second moment when the consumables transfer pump ends the no-load state, the third moment when the consumables output cycle starts and the fourth moment when it ends; and based on the first time length measured in advance, determines the compensation time length required for the consumables output cycle, thereby ensuring the consistency of the amount of consumables transferred in each consumables output cycle.

[0107] Optionally, determining the compensation duration for the consumable output cycle according to the first moment, the second moment, the third moment, the fourth moment, and the first duration includes:

[0108] Determine a fifth moment, where the fifth moment is a moment after the first moment by the first duration;

[0109] Determine a sixth moment, where the sixth moment is a moment after the second moment by the first duration;

[0110] The compensation duration for the consumables output cycle is determined according to the first moment, the second moment, the third moment, the fourth moment, the first duration, the fifth moment, and the sixth moment.

[0111] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the consumable transfer pump being in an unloaded state can be understood as the presence of bubbles in the consumable being transferred;

[0112] The first moment can be understood as the moment when the bubble enters the consumable transfer pump, and the second moment can be understood as the moment when the bubble pump is at the consumable transfer pump;

[0113] The fifth moment is the moment of the first duration after the first moment, that is, the fifth moment can be understood as the moment when the bubbles begin to reach the output end of the smart terminal, and the sixth moment can be understood as the moment when the bubbles are completely discharged from the smart terminal.

[0114] As shown in FIG4 , in one embodiment of the present disclosure, the smart terminal is a smart toothbrush, and the consumable material transfer pump is a toothpaste transfer pump 1;

[0115] The first moment when the consumable transfer pump enters the no-load state is the moment t1 when bubbles begin to enter the input end 11 of the consumable transfer pump, and the second moment when the consumable transfer pump ends the no-load state is the moment t2 when bubbles are discharged from the output end 12 of the consumable transfer pump;

[0116] The first duration is the time Δt required for the consumables to be transferred from the input end 11 of the consumables transfer pump to the consumables output end 2;

[0117] The third moment is t3, and the fourth moment is t4;

[0118] The fifth moment is the moment when the bubble is transmitted to the consumable output end 2 t5=t1+Δt;

[0119] The sixth moment is the moment t6 = t2 + Δt when the bubbles are completely discharged from the consumable output end 2 .

[0120] Optionally, as shown in FIG5 , determining the compensation duration for the consumable output cycle according to the first moment, the second moment, the third moment, the fourth moment, the first duration, the fifth moment, and the sixth moment includes:

[0121] When the fifth moment is later than the fourth moment, the compensation duration is 0.

[0122] It should be noted that the current values ​​are collected within the consumables output cycle, that is, the first moment and the second moment are both within the consumables output cycle;

[0123] The fifth moment t5 is later than the fourth moment t4. It can be understood that there are bubbles in the consumable output cycle T, but after the consumable output cycle T ends, the bubbles are still in the consumable transmission channel and have not reached the consumable output end of the smart terminal. Therefore, there is no need to compensate for the running time of the consumable output cycle.

[0124] The consumables output control method of the disclosed embodiment can determine, based on the sequential relationship between the fifth moment and the fourth moment, whether bubbles present within the consumables output cycle reach the consumables output end of the smart terminal before the end of the consumables output cycle, thereby determining the compensation duration for the consumables output cycle. The disclosed solution can calculate the actual consumables transmission time within the consumables output cycle, thereby determining whether a sufficient amount of consumables has been transmitted within the consumables output cycle, thereby ensuring the consistency and stability of the consumables transmission amount by the smart terminal.

[0125] Optionally, determining the compensation duration for the consumable output cycle according to the first moment, the second moment, the third moment, the fourth moment, the first duration, the fifth moment, and the sixth moment includes:

[0126] In the case that the fifth moment is earlier than the fourth moment and the sixth moment is later than or equal to the fourth moment, the compensation duration is the duration from the fifth moment to the fourth moment.

[0127] It should be noted that, as shown in FIG6 , the fifth moment t5 is earlier than the fourth moment t4, and the sixth moment t6 is later than the fourth moment t4. This can be understood as follows: bubbles exist within the consumable output cycle T and the bubbles reach the consumable output end of the smart terminal before the end of the consumable output cycle T. At the same time, the bubbles are not completely discharged from the consumable output end of the smart terminal at the end of the consumable output cycle T. Therefore, it is only necessary to compensate the consumable output cycle for the duration from the fifth moment t5 to the fourth moment t4 (the transmission duration of the bubble discharge portion);

[0128] At the same time, as shown in Figure 7, the fifth moment t5 is earlier than the fourth moment t4, and the sixth moment t6 is equal to the fourth moment t4. It can be understood that there are bubbles in the consumable output cycle T and the bubbles reach the consumable output end of the smart terminal before the end of the consumable output cycle. At the same time, at the end of the consumable output cycle T, the bubbles are just completely discharged from the consumable output end of the smart terminal. At this time, the time length from the fifth moment t5 to the fourth moment t4 is the time length from the fifth moment t5 to the sixth moment t6, which is equal to the time length from the first moment t1 to the second moment t2.

[0129] The consumables output control method of the disclosed embodiment can determine, based on the sequential relationship between the fifth moment and the fourth moment, whether bubbles existing within the consumables output cycle have reached the consumables output terminal of the smart terminal before the end of the consumables output cycle. Based on the sequential relationship between the sixth moment and the fourth moment, it can determine whether the bubbles have been completely discharged from the consumables output terminal of the smart terminal at the end of the consumables output cycle, thereby determining the compensation duration for the consumables output cycle. The disclosed solution can calculate the actual consumables transmission time within the consumables output cycle, thereby determining whether a sufficient amount of consumables has been transmitted within the consumables output cycle, thereby ensuring the consistency and stability of the consumables transmission amount by the smart terminal.

[0130] The determining, based on the first moment, the second moment, the third moment, the fourth moment, the first duration, the fifth moment, and the sixth moment, of the compensation duration for the consumables output cycle includes:

[0131] In the case that the fourth moment is later than the sixth moment, the compensation duration is the duration between the first moment and the second moment.

[0132] It should be noted that, as shown in Figure 8, the fourth moment t4 is later than the sixth moment t6. It can be understood that before the end of the consumable output cycle T, the bubble is completely discharged from the consumable output end of the smart terminal, so the compensation time is the transmission time of the entire bubble.

[0133] The consumables output control method of the disclosed embodiment can determine whether bubbles are completely discharged from the consumables output port of the smart terminal at the end of the consumables output cycle by using the sequence relationship between the sixth moment and the fourth moment, thereby determining the compensation duration for the consumables output cycle. The disclosed solution can calculate the actual consumables transmission time within the consumables output cycle, thereby determining whether a sufficient amount of consumables has been transmitted within the consumables output cycle, thereby ensuring the consistency and stability of the consumables transmission amount by the smart terminal.

[0134] Optionally, the method further includes:

[0135] When the running state of the consumable material transfer pump is stuck during the consumable material output cycle, switching the rotation direction of the consumable material transfer pump;

[0136] After controlling the consumable material transfer pump to run in reverse for a preset time, the running direction of the consumable material transfer pump is switched to forward running;

[0137] The consumables output cycle is compensated for the preset duration.

[0138] As shown in Figure 3, when it is determined that the operating status of the consumable transfer pump is stuck, the controller MCU enters the reverse push mode, that is, by controlling the level jump of the pins PUMPA and PUMPB, the power supply pins P+ and P- of the consumable transfer pump are also reversed, thereby realizing the reverse rotation of the consumable transfer pump, which will cause the impurities that are stuck in the consumable transfer pump to be pushed out of the consumable transfer pump, so that the consumable transfer pump returns to normal operation.

[0139] Optionally, the preset duration is shorter than the consumables output cycle.

[0140] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when the controller MCU detects that the current exceeds the third threshold, it starts recording the current time T_on;

[0141] At this time, the MCU will enter the protection reverse push mode and reverse the levels of PUMPA and PUMPB. At this time, the levels of the consumable transfer pump power supply pins P+ and P- will also be reversed, and the consumable transfer pump can run in reverse for a period of time (for example, 10 seconds). In this way, the impurities that cause the consumable transfer pump to be stuck can be pushed out of the machine, allowing the consumable transfer pump to resume normal operation;

[0142] The MCU will continuously record the current. If the jammed state of the consumable transfer pump is released, the current will drop to a safe range, and T_on will be reset to zero. However, if the pump body remains stuck until the jamming time exceeds the threshold (jam duration = current time T_now - T_on. If the jam duration > the set threshold, the jam state cannot be automatically released).

[0143] The consumables output control method of the disclosed embodiment can determine that the consumables transfer pump is in a stuck state by measuring that the current of the consumables transfer pump is greater than the third preset threshold value; by controlling the running direction of the consumables transfer pump, impurities that cause the consumables transfer pump to be stuck can be discharged from the consumables transfer pump, thereby restoring the normal operation of the consumables transfer pump.

[0144] As shown in FIG9 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a consumables output control device 900 , comprising:

[0145] An acquisition module 901 is configured to acquire a current value of the consumable transfer pump of the smart terminal at a preset time interval during a consumable output cycle of the consumable transfer pump;

[0146] A determination module 902 is configured to determine an operating state of the consumable material transfer pump during the consumable material output cycle according to the current value;

[0147] The adjustment module 903 is configured to adjust the running time of the consumable output cycle when it is determined that the running state is in an idle state.

[0148] The consumables output control device of the embodiment of the present disclosure can determine the operating status of the consumables transfer pump by collecting the current value consumed by the consumables transfer pump, and thus adjust the operating time of the consumables transfer pump when it is determined that the consumables transfer pump is in an unloaded operating state. The operating time of the consumables transfer pump can be extended in the presence of bubbles during the transmission of consumables, thereby ensuring the stability of the consumables output. The embodiment of the present disclosure solves the problem of personal care equipment being unable to maintain consistency and stability in the consumables output due to bubbles in the consumables filling process or air in the consumables pipeline.

[0149] As shown in FIG10 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a consumables output control device, comprising: a current sampling device, a consumables transfer pump, and the consumables output control device as described above;

[0150] Wherein, the current sampling device is connected to the consumables transmission pump and the consumables output control device;

[0151] The current sampling device is used to collect the current value consumed by the consumable material transfer pump during operation, and send the current value to the consumable material output control device.

[0152] Optionally, the diameter of the output end of the consumable transfer pump ranges from 0.6 mm to 2.8 mm.

[0153] Optionally, the diameter of the output end of the consumable transfer pump is smaller than or equal to the diameter of the input end of the consumable transfer pump; and the diameter of the output end of the consumable transfer pump is smaller than the diameter of the consumable bottle output port.

[0154] The consumable output control device of the embodiment of the present disclosure sets the diameter of the output end of the consumable transfer pump to 0.6mm-2.8mm, so that a larger pressure area can be formed at the output end when the consumable passes through the output end, thereby facilitating the current sampling device to measure the current value consumed during the operation of the consumable transfer pump, thereby improving the accuracy of the current sampling device in current collection.
