Detailed Description
The present invention is described in detail below by way of specific, but not limiting, examples, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more readily understood by those of ordinary skill in the art.
As shown in fig. 1, in the embodiment of the present invention, the electronic cigarette 1 includes a processor, and a power key and an indication module electrically connected to the processor, and the processor receives an instruction sent by the power key and controls the indication module and an execution element (such as an atomizer, a heating element, and the like). In this embodiment, the indication module is 4 LED (Light Emitting Diode) display lamps 2 (other types of display lamps or other display devices may be selected), and the display lamps 2 can only display predetermined colors, for example, four colors of green, yellow, orange and red are sequentially displayed from the 4 display lamps. In other embodiments, display lights that can display multiple colors may also be used. In the above description, only the indication module 4 includes 4 LED display lamps 2 as an example, in practical implementation, the indication module 4 may further include more or fewer display lamps, and the display lamps may be LED lamps or other types of lamps, which is not limited herein. The following examples are given by way of example only, and the number of LED display lamps 2 is not limited to 4 in actual practice. In addition, in this embodiment, the indication module 4 may be located on any side wall of the electronic cigarette, for example, the bottom of the electronic cigarette, and the like, which is not limited thereto.
As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present invention provides an electronic cigarette parameter setting method, which may be used in the electronic cigarette shown in fig. 1, and the method includes:
in the parameter setting mode, when a parameter switching signal is received, the indicating module alternately displays different indicating signals, wherein the different indicating signals correspond to different output parameters;
and when the parameter determination condition is met, determining the output parameter corresponding to the current indication signal as the target output parameter.
The parameter setting mode may be entered after the electronic cigarette receives an operation signal (e.g., pressing a key) triggered manually and used for setting the output parameter, or may be entered automatically after the electronic cigarette is turned on. Alternatively, the output parameter may include one or more of output temperature, output power, and output voltage, and the operation signal for setting the output parameter may be a number of consecutive presses of the power key. For example, two sets of output temperature, three sets of output power, and four sets of output voltage are provided.
In the parameter setting mode, when receiving a parameter switching signal, the indicating module alternately displays different indicating signals, optionally, the parameter switching signal may be a power key being pressed, and the indicating signal is a lighting color and/or a lighting number. For example, the lighting colors are green, yellow, orange, red, and the number of lighting is 1 to 4. When receiving the parameter switching signal, the indication module alternately displays different indication signals, which may be set as: the lighting color is alternately displayed and/or the number of lights is increased or decreased every time a parameter switching signal is received. For example, each time the power key is pressed, the lighting colors can be sequentially changed by green, yellow, orange and red, and the number of lighting can be increased by 1 (or 1 if the current number is 4). Of course, when entering the parameter setting mode, the indication signal may display default values, such as 3 lights, which are orange in color.
Alternatively, different indication signals correspond to different output parameters, and may be set according to the following correspondence table.

Alternatively, the parameter determination condition may be that an acknowledgement signal is received (e.g., two power keys are pressed), or that no operation is performed within a preset time period (e.g., 5 seconds).
In this embodiment, the method may further include: and when a pumping end signal is detected, entering a heat preservation mode according to the preset temperature, and keeping the temperature at the preset temperature. The pumping is finished, and the pumping is continued subsequently, not shut down. Alternatively, the end-of-suction signal may be a long press of the power key for 2 to 4 seconds, or a detection of no airflow.
Optionally, the heat preservation process includes:
in the heat preservation mode, when a heat preservation time switching signal is received, the indicating module alternately displays different indicating signals, wherein the different indicating signals correspond to different heat preservation times;
and when the time determination condition is met, determining the heat preservation time corresponding to the current indication signal as the target heat preservation time.
Optionally, in the insulation mode, when receiving an operation signal (such as a key signal, a voice control signal, a touch signal, a tap signal, or a gesture signal) for setting insulation time, the apparatus may also enter the insulation time setting mode automatically (such as no trigger signal is received within 2S), and prepare to receive an insulation time switching signal. Alternatively, the operation signal for setting the warm-keeping time may be to continuously press two power keys, and the warm-keeping time switching signal may be to press one power key.
Alternatively, the indicator signal may be a lighting color and/or a number of lights. When receiving the heat preservation time switching signal, the indication module displays different indication signals by turns, and can be set as follows: and when the temperature keeping time switching signal is received, the lighting colors are alternately displayed, and/or the number of the lighting is increased or decreased.
Optionally, the different indication signals correspond to different heat preservation times, wherein the number of the lighted lamps can be set to be equal to the number of the lighted lamps in the number of heat preservation minutes, that is, one lamp is lighted for heat preservation for one minute, two lamps are lighted for heat preservation for two minutes, three lamps are lighted for heat preservation for three minutes, and four lamps are lighted for heat preservation for four minutes. The light can be set to green, yellow, orange and red, which are respectively kept warm for one, two, three and four minutes.
Alternatively, the time determination condition may be that an acknowledgement signal is received (e.g. two power keys are pressed), or that no operation is performed within a preset time period (e.g. 5 seconds).
In this embodiment, the method may further include: the current electric quantity is indicated through the indicating module, and different indicating signals correspond to different current electric quantities.
Optionally, the indicating, by the indicating module, the current electric quantity includes: the current amount of power is indicated by lighting colors and/or the number of lights, each lighting color and/or the number of lights indicating a current amount of power. Optionally, the current electric quantity may be obtained first, a range in which the obtained electric quantity is located is determined, and the current electric quantity is indicated by lighting colors and/or lighting numbers according to the determined range. For example, green, yellow, orange and red can respectively correspond to 75-100%, 50-75%, 25-50% and 0-25% of the current electric quantity, and the number of the lighting lamps from 1 to 4 respectively corresponds to 0-25%, 25-50%, 50-75% and 75-100%.
