Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Fig. 1 is a logical block diagram of an aerosol-generating device according to a first embodiment of the present invention, and first illustrates that the aerosol-generating device includes a receiving chamber (not shown) for receiving an aerosol-generating substrate 40, and a heating element 30 for heating the aerosol-generating substrate 40, for example, the heating element 30 may be embedded in the aerosol-generating substrate 40. The heating element 30 is an alloy having a specific Curie point, and its magnetic induction value decreases with an increase in temperature at or below the specific Curie point (for example, 420 ℃ C.), and is in a nearly linear relationship. The material of the heating element 30 may be, for example, iron-nickel-chromium alloy.
With reference to fig. 1, the aerosol-generating device of this embodiment further includes a control module 11, a resonance module 12, and a heating module 13, and the heating module 13 includes a heating coil L2, the heating coil L2 is sleeved on the accommodating cavity; the resonance module 12 includes a detection coil L1, at least a part of which is in the magnetic field of the heat-generating body 30, of which detection coil L1. In this embodiment, the detection coil L1 and the heating coil L2 are both spiral spring coils, and the detection coil L1 and the heating coil L2 are both sleeved on the accommodating cavity, and may be coaxially nested, for example, and the heating coil L2 may be preferably disposed outside the detection coil L1.
The control module 11 is respectively connected with the resonance module 12 and the heating module 13, and the control module 11 is used for controlling the heating module 12 to generate an alternating current on the heating coil L2 so as to electromagnetically heat the heating body 30 in the accommodating cavity; and for controlling the operation of the resonator module 12 in a resonant state such that substantially no inductive heating occurs during sensing, and such that substantially little current flows during actual operation, and for determining the resonant frequency of the resonator module 12 from the voltage signal from the sensing coil L1, and for determining a corresponding sensing result from the resonant frequency, including for example the temperature of the heating element, whether a suction action has taken place, or whether an insertion action of the aerosol-generating substrate has taken place.
In this embodiment, the temperature of the heating element 30 may change during normal operation of the aerosol generating device, for example, the temperature of the heating period and the non-heating period in one control cycle may be different; the temperature at which the pumping operation occurs is different from the temperature at which the pumping operation does not occur, and the change in the temperature of the heating element 30 causes a change in the magnetic induction value thereof. In the aerosol-generating device, the magnetic induction value of the heating element 30 is different between the case where the aerosol-generating substrate is inserted and the case where the aerosol-generating substrate is not inserted. Thus, when the magnetic induction value of the heating element 30 changes, at least a part of the detection coil L1 is in the magnetic field of the heating element 30, so that the resonant frequency of the resonant module 12 changes, that is, the frequency of the voltage on the detection coil L1 changes, so that the frequency characteristic can be used as the representation of the corresponding detection result of the aerosol generating device, and the control module 11 can determine the corresponding detection result according to the resonant frequency. In this detection mode, since a temperature sensor is not required, the problem of limitation in the structural design of the aerosol generating device is solved, and since the detection coil L1 is not required to be electrically connected to the heating element, the problem of difficulty in cleaning due to the electrical connection is also solved. In addition, the flexible design of the heating module can be realized through the separation of the resonance module and the heating module.
In addition, in other embodiments, other heating methods, such as a direct heating method, may be used to heat the heating element 30.

In this embodiment, since the heating element 30 is a flat rectangular parallelepiped and the detection coil is also a spiral-type flat coil, and in practical use, after the aerosol-generating substrate is inserted and removed, the heating element 30 may be rotated about its vertical axis, that is, the projected shape on the horizontal plane may be changed, and further, the flat surface of the heating element 30 may be just perpendicular or nearly perpendicular to the flat surface of one spiral-type flat coil. In order to avoid such a situation, in this embodiment, a plurality of spiral type flat coils connected in series are provided on the periphery of the heating element 30, and it is possible to ensure that the spiral type flat coils fall into a sufficient portion of the magnetic field of the heating element 30 regardless of how the heating element rotates around its vertical axis, thereby improving the detection accuracy. It should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the number of spiral pancake coils, and in other embodiments, the number of spiral pancake coils can be two, three, etc. Of course, in other embodiments, if the heating element is a cylinder or a rectangular parallelepiped with a square cross section, only one spiral type flat coil may be provided.

Fig. 4 is a circuit diagram of a first embodiment of a heating module in an aerosol-generating device of the present invention, the heating module of this embodiment comprising: the third switch tube Q3, the fourth switch tube Q4, the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3, and in this embodiment, the third switch tube Q3 and the fourth switch tube Q4 are MOS tubes. The source of the third switching tube Q3 is connected to the drain of the fourth switching tube Q4, the drain of the third switching tube Q3 is connected to the output terminal (VCC1) of the power supply, the source of the fourth switching tube Q4 is grounded, the gate of the third switching tube Q3 is connected to the second output terminal (PWM-H) of the control module, the gate of the fourth switching tube Q4 is connected to the third output terminal (PWM-L) of the control module, the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3 are connected in series between the output terminal of the power supply and the ground, the first end of the heating coil L2 is connected to the source of the third switching tube Q3, and the second end of the heating coil L2 is connected to the connection point of the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3.
With reference to fig. 3 and 4, the third switching tube Q3, the fourth switching tube Q4, the heating coil L2, the second capacitor C2 and the third capacitor C3 constitute a controllable heating module, and when the heating element needs to be heated and controlled, the main control unit in the control module controls the third switching tube Q3 and the fourth switching tube Q4 to be alternately conducted through PWM-H, PWM-L, so that alternating current can be generated on the heating coil L2, and thus controllable heating of the heating element is realized.
The detection coil L1, the first capacitor C1 and the auxiliary circuit form a resonance module, and the operational amplifier U1B and the auxiliary circuit form a conversion unit. When corresponding detection is needed, the main control unit in the control module controls the conduction of the fifth switching tube Q5 through VCC2_ EN, at this time, VCC2 is high level, the detection coil L1 resonates with the first capacitor C1, a voltage signal of waveform oscillation is generated on the detection coil L1, and the voltage signal is sent to the operational amplifier U1B. The operational amplifier U1B changes the voltage signal that this waveform is oscillated into the pulse signal that can carry out frequency measurement, simultaneously, realizes the level matching through resistance R7, R9, then transmits output signal Fre to control module's main control unit, and the main control unit obtains the current resonant frequency's of resonance module characteristic through frequency measurement, then carries out corresponding detection through resonant frequency's characteristic change, and, the multiple detection can be realized to the characteristic change that utilizes resonant frequency:
in an optional embodiment, the detection of the temperature of the heating element is realized by using the characteristic change of the resonant frequency, and specifically, the control module is used for controlling the heating module to generate an alternating current according to the temperature of the heating element in the heating time interval of each cycle when the power of the heating element is controlled; and controlling the resonance module to work in a resonance state in the non-heating time period of each cycle, and determining the temperature of the heating body according to the resonance frequency of the resonance module. In this embodiment, under the control of the control module, an alternating current of a specific time period (Tm) is applied to the heating coil, and the heating element performs induction heating. The heating element has obvious magnetic temperature characteristics under a specific temperature condition (for example, between 150 and 420 ℃). Then, the control module controls the resonance module to work in another specific time period (Tn), Tm and Tn are two time periods which are not overlapped, and the frequency characteristic change of the resonance module can feed back the change of the temperature of the heating body, so the control module can obtain the peak frequency characteristic of the resonance module by detecting the voltage on the detection coil, then determine the change of the temperature of the heating body according to the change of the frequency characteristic, and adjust the sympathetic current on the heating coil according to the change of the temperature of the heating body. Moreover, the heating mode is an induction heating mode, so that the heating mode has higher conversion power, meanwhile, the resonance module works in a resonance state, obvious induction heating is hardly generated, and the working current is very small during actual work.
In an alternative embodiment, the detection of the puff is achieved by a characteristic change in the resonant frequency, and in particular, the detection of the puff may be achieved by a significant jump in the resonant frequency characteristic, since a significant temperature change occurs in the heat generating body when a puff stream is flowing through the aerosol-generating substrate, thereby enabling the number of puffs to be metered.
In an alternative embodiment, the insertion detection of the aerosol-generating substrate is achieved by using a characteristic change in the resonant frequency, and in particular, the operating current of the resonant module is small, and the control module can wake up to detect the change in the operating frequency of the resonant module by timing the VCC2_ EN signal when the aerosol-generating device is in a standby state, so as to achieve the insertion detection of the aerosol-generating substrate.
In summary, in connection with figure 5, during the time period 0 to t1, when no aerosol-generating substrate is added, the detected resonance frequency is f 0; at time t1, with the addition of aerosol-generating substrate, the detected resonant frequency drops to f 1; in the period from t1 to t2, as the preheating is started, the detected resonant frequency gradually rises to f2, wherein f2 is the frequency corresponding to the preset temperature point, and the detected resonant frequency is maintained at the frequency point by controlling the heating; in the period from t3 to t4, since the user has performed one suction, at this time, the heater temperature falls, the detected resonance frequency falls from f2 to f3, and then the resonance frequency rises to f2 by heating control. Similarly, in the period from t5 to t6, as the user performs another suction, the detected resonant frequency is decreased from f2 to f4, and then the resonant frequency is increased to f2 by the heating control. Furthermore, the amplitude of the frequency decrease may be different for different depths of suction, for example, since f4 is less than f3, the depth of suction for the second suction is greater than the depth of suction for the first suction.
