In practical application, a user can trigger the operation of the keys on the display interface to enable the food processor to enter different working modes. In this embodiment, the working mode of the food processor can be determined to be the drainage mode or the cleaning mode by monitoring the triggering condition of the keys on the operation display interface, that is, the identification of the working mode of the food processor can be realized by the triggering mode or the triggering number of the keys on the operation display interface, so that the user experience is improved.
In one example, the preset key being activated may include: at least two keys are activated. In the embodiment, the food processor can enter a drainage mode or a cleaning mode through a combined key mode, and a user can select different working modes according to own requirements.
In one example, the preset key being activated includes: the preset key is triggered, and the triggering duration is longer than a first preset duration. In the embodiment, the food processor can enter the drainage mode or the cleaning mode by pressing the key for a long time, and a user can select different working modes according to the requirement.
In an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the drain mode may include a tank drain mode in which the tank is evacuated to drain the water in the tank to the blender cup through the drain port and a blender cup drain mode. The mixing cup drainage mode is to drain only the mixing cup and drain water in the mixing cup through the drainage port. In the embodiment, when the food processor enters the drainage mode by triggering the keys on the operation display interface, the food processor enters the water tank drainage mode or the stirring cup drainage mode by triggering different keys or triggering the keys with different triggering durations.
In an example embodiment of the invention, the method of draining water from a water tank of a food processor may further comprise:
displaying the drainage state of the water tank on an operation display interface, wherein the drainage state of the water tank comprises the following steps: a tank is draining, a tank is draining is complete, or a tank is draining is malfunctioning.
In the embodiment, in the process of evacuating water from the water tank, the drainage state of the water tank can be displayed through the operation display interface, so that a user can know the drainage condition in real time, and the user experience is improved.
In one example, after the user selects the drainage mode through the keys on the operation display interface, the operation display interface D can display that intelligent drainage is in progress, the electric control system E can detect the position of the residual water cup S and the liquid level height of the residual water cup S first, and if the residual water cup S is not placed in place, the operation display interface D can prompt the user to place the residual water cup S in place; if the water level of the residual water cup S is too high, the operation display interface D can prompt a user to remove the liquid in the residual water cup S firstly; if the residual water cup S is placed in place and the water level is normal, the electric control system E firstly controls the rotary valve R to rotate the water outlet to the position of the residual water cup S, then the water pump P is started to pump the liquid in the water tank W into the stirring cup J, and because the rotary valve R drives the water outlet to rotate to the position of the residual water cup S at the moment, the water in the stirring cup J can flow into the residual water cup S all the time, and the intelligent drainage work is carried out all the time.
In one example, in the intelligent drainage process, if the electronic control system E detects that the residual water cup S is moved, the user is prompted to return the residual water cup S through the operation display interface D, the water pump is turned off, and the rotary valve R is rotated to the closed position. If the electric control system E detects that the liquid level of the residual water cup S is too high, the user can be prompted to empty the liquid in the residual water cup S through the operation display interface D, and after the fault is removed, intelligent drainage work can be continued.
In one example, in the intelligent drainage process, water in the water tank W is continuously reduced, the water pump P is empty when the water pump P is reduced to a certain degree, when the electric control system E detects that the current of the water pump is too low and detects that the water level of the water tank is lower than the minimum value, the electric control system E determines that the liquid in the water tank is completely pumped at the moment, closes the water pump and closes the rotary valve, prompts the intelligent pumping completion on the operation display interface, and then automatically enters the standby interface.
In an example, when the drainage mode is divided into the tank drainage mode and the mixing cup drainage mode, the user may select to drain the liquid in the mixing cup to the slurry receiving cup M or to the remaining cup S in the mixing cup drainage mode. After the user selects the option of discharging to the slurry receiving cup M, the operation display interface D can display that the intelligent stirring cup drains water in progress, the electric control system E firstly detects the position of the slurry receiving cup M and the liquid level height of the slurry receiving cup M, if the slurry receiving cup M is not in place, the operation display interface D can prompt the user to place the slurry receiving cup M in place, and meanwhile, the rotary valve is rotated to the closed position to prevent liquid from flowing down. If the liquid level of the pulp receiving cup M is too high, the operation display interface D can prompt a user to remove the liquid in the pulp receiving cup M firstly, and meanwhile, the rotary valve is rotated to a closed position to prevent the liquid from overflowing. If no fault occurs, the electric control system E controls the rotary valve R to rotate to the position of the slurry receiving cup W, so that the liquid flows into the slurry receiving cup M through the water outlet and the water outlet. During the drainage of the intelligent stirring cup, when the slurry receiving cup is out of order or the high water level detection is effective in the working process, the system can prompt. When the preset drainage time of the electric control system E is up, the electric control system E can control the rotary valve R to rotate to a closed position, meanwhile, the display work on the operation display interface D is completed, and the system returns to a standby state.
In an exemplary embodiment of the invention, the water tank is fixedly mounted to the base of the food processor. The water tank water emptying method of the embodiment can be applied to a food processor with the water tank and the base integrated, when the water tank is fixed on the base and cannot be separated from the base, the water in the water tank can be evacuated by the water tank water emptying method shown in the embodiment, and the situation that the liquid in the water tank can be emptied only by manually inverting the base of the food processor when the water tank and the base cannot be separated in the prior art is avoided.
