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.

It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," and the like in the description and claims of the present invention and in the drawings described above are used for distinguishing between similar elements and not necessarily for describing a particular sequential or chronological order. It is to be understood that the data so used is interchangeable under appropriate circumstances such that the embodiments of the invention described herein are capable of operation in sequences other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements expressly listed, but may include other steps or elements not expressly listed or inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

Example 1

In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided an accessory management method, it being noted that the steps illustrated in the flowchart of the drawings may be performed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and that while a logical order is illustrated in the flowchart, in some cases the steps illustrated or described may be performed in an order different than here.

Fig. 1 is a flow chart of an accessory management method according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:

step S102, detecting the type of the currently installed accessory on the cooking appliance.

And step S104, determining a first function corresponding to the currently installed accessory based on the type of the currently installed accessory.

The cooking appliance may be an electric pressure cooker, an electric rice cooker, an air fryer, a food processor, and other devices having multiple functions. In order to realize multiple functions, the cooking utensil can be configured with a plurality of accessories, and the accessory here can be the pot cover of different grade type, toast basket, stirring leaf etc. moreover, different functions can be realized to different accessories, for example, pressure cooking can be realized to the pressure cooker lid, toasts the pot cover and can realize toasting the culinary art, and the stirring leaf can realize eating material stirring etc.. In the embodiment of the present invention, a cooking appliance is configured with a plurality of different types of pot lids as an example.

Because different types of pot covers can realize different functions, in order to ensure that the cooking appliance can realize different functions, the functions corresponding to all accessories are required to be stored in a memory of the cooking appliance in advance, and when the corresponding functions are required to be used, the corresponding control programs are required to be called from the memory.

The cooking appliance is often shipped only with the standard fitting, and the standard fitting is often a fixed one of the plurality of fittings. After the user purchases the cooking utensil, the user can use the function corresponding to the standard accessory, and the function corresponding to other accessories can be used after the user purchases the corresponding accessory, at the moment, only the function corresponding to the standard accessory is activated, and the functions corresponding to other accessories are not activated. For example, for a multifunctional cooking appliance, a plurality of accessories such as a pressure cover, a baking cover, a glass cover and the like can be generally configured, but the factory standard accessory is the pressure cover, that is, a user only allows the function corresponding to the pressure cover to be used under the default condition, and the function corresponding to the baking cover or the glass cover is not allowed to be used. In order to avoid the user from using the corresponding function of the baking cover or the glass cover, the corresponding function of the pressure cover can be activated, and the corresponding function of the baking cover or the glass cover is ensured to be in an inactivated state.

Step S106, activating a first function to enable a control program corresponding to the currently installed accessory to be called by the controller of the cooking appliance.

In an alternative embodiment, in order to avoid the problem that the user needs to select the function to be used from the functions of all the accessories, when the cooking appliance is shipped from the factory, only the function setting corresponding to the standard accessory can be activated, and the functions corresponding to the other accessories are kept in the inactivated state. Thus, the user can only select the function corresponding to the standard accessory, but cannot select the function corresponding to the other accessory. When the user wants to execute the functions corresponding to other accessories, the user can purchase the corresponding accessories and install the accessories on the cooking appliance, at this time, the type of the accessories installed on the cooking appliance can be detected, the functions corresponding to the accessories can be activated for the convenience of the user to use the functions corresponding to the accessories, and the functions corresponding to the accessories are provided for the user to select.

In the embodiment of the invention, the first function corresponding to the currently installed accessory is activated, so that a user can select the first function to perform cooking operation, and the controller calls the control program corresponding to the currently installed accessory to perform cooking operation.

Optionally, in the above embodiment of the present invention, in step S106, after the first function is activated, the first function is displayed in the operation interface, wherein the activated function in the cooking appliance is displayed in the operation interface, and the inactivated function is in a hidden state.

Since the number of functions stored in the cooking appliance is large, for example, the functions corresponding to the pressure cooker cover may include different recipes (such as cooking, cooking soup, stewing pork ribs, stewing pork trotters, etc.), cooking pressure, cooking time, etc., and if the functions corresponding to all the accessories are displayed on the operation interface, redundancy of the operation interface may be caused.

The operation interface may be an interface provided on the cooking appliance and provided for a user to perform an operation, and the interface may be displayed on a liquid crystal touch screen, an LED screen, or a TFT (Thin Film Transistor) screen installed outside the cooking appliance, where for the liquid crystal touch screen, the user may directly select a function on the touch screen through a touch operation; for LED screens and TFT screens, the user may select a function by a mechanical key or a touch key.

In an optional embodiment, in order to facilitate the user to select the function to be used and avoid the tedious operation interface, only the activated function may be displayed in the operation interface, and the inactivated function may be hidden, so that the user may only view the activated function and select the function to be used for cooking, thereby achieving the effect of avoiding the tedious operation interface.

Optionally, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the method further includes: determining a second function of a plurality of functions currently displayed in the operation interface; and controlling the second function to be in a hidden state.

The plurality of functions may be functions that have been displayed in the operation interface before the user installs the accessory. When the user uses the accessory except the standard accessory for the first time, the plurality of functions can be functions corresponding to the standard accessory; when the user uses the standard accessory again, the plurality of functions described above may be all functions that have been activated before the standard accessory was used here.

If a new accessory is added to the operation interface after different accessories are installed each time, after a user uses the accessories of different types for multiple times, functions displayed in the operation interface are more and more, and the problem of redundancy of the operation interface still exists. In an alternative embodiment, in order to ensure that the operation interface can display the first function corresponding to the currently installed accessory and avoid the operation interface from being redundant, part of the functions (i.e., the second functions) displayed in the operation interface may be hidden.

Optionally, in the foregoing embodiment of the present invention, determining a second function of the plurality of functions currently displayed in the operation interface includes: obtaining the scoring values of a plurality of functions; sorting the plurality of functions according to the score values of the plurality of functions; and determining that the function with the preset number which is ranked last in the sequenced functions is the second function.

The score value may be an initial score set for different functions before the cooking appliance leaves a factory, and the higher the score value is, the higher the ranking of the function is, the higher the use probability of the user is; it is also possible to determine the score value of each function based on information such as the frequency of use, the number of times of use, the last time of use, etc. of the user after each use by the user.

The preset number may be the number of functions to be hidden determined by experiments, the number of functions to be hidden set according to the user display requirement, or the same number as the number of the first functions.

In an alternative embodiment, the plurality of functions displayed on the operation interface may be sorted in order of the scores, and a preset number of functions that are sorted later may be hidden, that is, a function with a lower score among the plurality of functions may be hidden. Through the scheme, different score values are set aiming at different functions in advance, so that the function needing to be hidden is determined based on the score values, the complexity of an operation interface is avoided, meanwhile, a user can be ensured to view the function with the higher score value, and the use by the user is facilitated.

Alternatively, in the above embodiment of the present invention, the step S102 of detecting the type of the currently installed accessory on the cooking appliance includes: acquiring an output signal of a detection circuit, wherein the detection circuit is connected with a currently installed accessory; the type of currently installed accessory is determined based on the output signal.

The detection circuit may be a circuit structure that is set inside the cooking appliance before the cooking appliance leaves a factory, and different accessories may be detected by the circuit structure and different output signals may be output.

In an alternative embodiment, after the user mounts the accessory on the cooking appliance, the detection circuit is connected with the currently mounted accessory, the accessory is detected by the detection circuit, and a corresponding output signal is output, so that what type of accessory the currently mounted accessory is can be determined according to the received output signal, and further, whether the currently mounted accessory is a new accessory can be determined. The type of the currently installed accessory can be accurately judged through the detection circuit, and the purpose of improving the detection accuracy of the new accessory is achieved.

Optionally, in the above embodiment of the present invention, after the step S102 of detecting the type of the currently installed accessory on the cooking appliance, the method further includes: judging whether the type of the currently installed accessory is matched with a target type, wherein the function corresponding to the target type is activated; if the type of the currently installed accessory fails to match the target type, the first function is activated and the type of the currently installed accessory is added to the target type.

It should be noted that, when the same type of accessory is used for multiple times, the function corresponding to the accessory is already activated, and in order to avoid repeated activation, in an optional embodiment, the types of the accessories corresponding to all the activated functions may be stored as target types, and then whether to activate the first function corresponding to the accessory is determined by judging whether the type of the currently installed accessory is matched with the target type, so that the effects of simplifying the activation process and increasing the response speed are achieved.

A preferred embodiment of the invention will be described in detail below with reference to fig. 2, taking the example of a cooking appliance equipped with a plurality of different types of lids. As shown in fig. 2, the method comprises the steps of:

step S21, detecting whether a pot cover is covered on the cooking utensil at present, if yes, entering step S22, otherwise, ending the whole process;

step S22, judging whether the pot cover connected with the detection circuit is a new pot cover, if the pot cover connected with the detection circuit is determined to be the new pot cover, entering step S23, otherwise ending the whole flow;

step S23, activating the function corresponding to the new pot cover;

step S24, adding the corresponding function of the new pot cover into the menu sequence and displaying the function in the operation interface;

step S25, hiding the function with lower scoring value in the old functions;

and step S26, updating the display menu and the NFC module data.

Optionally, whether the pot cover is a new pot cover may be determined by determining whether the pot cover accessed to the detection circuit is a pot cover corresponding to an activated function, wherein if the pot cover accessed to the detection circuit is a pot cover corresponding to an activated function, it is determined that the pot cover is not a new pot cover, otherwise, it is determined that the pot cover is a new pot cover.

Through the steps, the functions of all accessories can be stored in the cooking appliance when the cooking appliance leaves a factory, after the user purchases other accessories, when the user accesses the accessories into the cooking appliance, the related functions of the accessories can be activated and correspondingly displayed, and therefore the situation that the operation interface is complicated, the operation steps are complicated, and the user experience is influenced is avoided.
