Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more apparent, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention belongs; the terms used in the specification are only for the purpose of describing particular embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention, for example, the terms "length", "width", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "rear", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc. indicate orientations or positions based on the orientation or position shown in the drawings, are merely for convenience of description, and are not to be construed as limiting the present technical solution.

The meaning of "plurality" is two or more unless specifically limited otherwise.
Furthermore, reference herein to "an embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearances of the phrase in various places in the specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment, nor are separate or alternative embodiments mutually exclusive of other embodiments. It is explicitly and implicitly understood by one skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
Referring to fig. 1, a flow chart of a method for controlling an aerosol-generating device according to an embodiment of the invention is shown. The method comprises the following steps:
s110, detecting whether the aerosol generating device is in a suction state.
As an example, the detecting whether the aerosol-generating device is in a puff state comprises: the aerosol-generating device comprises a microphone assembly for monitoring whether a puff takes place in the aerosol-generating device and for counting puffs and counting time when there is a puff.
Alternatively, the suction and/or blowing action of the user may be detected by integrating an airflow sensor/pneumatic switch or the like in the head of the aerosol-generating device and outputting different electrical signals depending on the suction and/or blowing action.
It should be noted that the sensor for converting the blowing and/or inhaling actions into the electrical signals may also be implemented by other sensors, in this embodiment, only an air flow sensor/pneumatic switch is illustrated, and those skilled in the art may also modify the above-mentioned hardware during the design process based on actual requirements.
Alternatively, it is possible to count the number of puffs taken by the user by integrating a counting function in the head of the aerosol-generating device. The counting function may be implemented by a counter, which counts when receiving a high level, and increments a cell number and updates the reference number on the basis of the reference number each time a high level signal is received, where the cell number may be 1, and the reference number may be set to 0. Wherein a high level is sent to the counter when a pumping action by the user is detected. It should be noted that the counting function can also be realized by writing a counting program into the microphone or other manners, the counting function is not limited in the implementation of the invention, and a technician can change the design according to the actual situation; meanwhile, the unit value and the reference number are not limited herein, and a technician may change the setting according to actual conditions.
Alternatively, timing may be initiated upon receipt of a first high level by integrating a timing function in the head of the aerosol-generating device, wherein the high level is sent when a user's sucking action is detected; and/or for starting timing when the aerosol-generating device is normally nebulized; and/or starting timing when the aerosol generating device stops working, wherein the timing function can be realized by adopting a timer, or can be realized by writing a timing program into a microphone and the like.
S120, detecting a child lock open state of the aerosol-generating device in response to the aerosol-generating device being in a puff state.
As an example, the detecting a child lock open state of the aerosol-generating device in response to the aerosol-generating device being in a puff state comprises: when a user is detected as producing a puff on the aerosol-generating device, it is first detected whether the aerosol-generating device is in a child-lock open state.
Alternatively, it may be directly obtained whether the aerosol-generating device is in the child-lock open state by reading the control state of a controller of the aerosol-generating device.
Alternatively, it may be determined whether the aerosol-generating device is currently in a child-lock on state by detecting whether a user's puff does cause a nebulization operation of the aerosol-generating device, the user's normal puff being unable to initiate the nebulization operation of the aerosol-generating device when the aerosol-generating device is in the child-lock on state.
S130, in response to the fact that the aerosol generating device is in a child lock opening state, judging whether the number of suction openings of the aerosol generating device in a first preset time is larger than a first threshold value.
As an example, the determining whether the number of puffs of the aerosol-generating device within a first preset time is greater than a first threshold in response to the aerosol-generating device being in a child-lock open state comprises: when the aerosol-generating device is in a child-lock open state, it is counted whether the number of puffs of the aerosol-generating device by a user within a certain period of time meets a preset condition.
Alternatively, the first preset time may be set to 2s and the first threshold may be set to 3, that is, when the aerosol generating device is in the child lock on state, after a user's smoking action on the aerosol generating device is detected, the timer is started to count by sending a high level to the timer integrated at the microphone, and the counter is started to count by sending a high level to the counter integrated at the microphone, and whether the user has smoked within 2s for 3 times is determined based on the counted values of the timer and the counter.
It should be noted that the specific values of the first preset time and the first threshold are not limited herein, and those skilled in the art can autonomously select different first preset times and first thresholds in the design process.
S140, in response to the fact that the number of the suction openings of the aerosol generating device in a first preset time is larger than a first threshold value, enabling the aerosol generating device to be in a child-lock closed state.
As an example, said causing the aerosol-generating device to be in a child-lock off state in response to the number of puffs of the aerosol-generating device within a first preset time being greater than a first threshold comprises: when the number of puffs of the aerosol-generating device within a first preset time is greater than a first threshold value, the aerosol-generating device is automatically unlocked, i.e. brought into a child-lock off state. When the aerosol-generating device is in a child-lock off state, the aerosol-generating device may be normally nebulized upon detection of a user's puff on the aerosol-generating device.
Optionally, for example, when the aerosol generating device is in a child lock off state, after detecting a suction action of the user on the aerosol generating device, counting whether the suction action of the user satisfies continuous suction for 3 times within a time period of 2s, and if so, unlocking the aerosol generating device, and closing the child lock to normally atomize the aerosol generating device.
Alternatively, when the aerosol-generating device changes from an open child-lock state to a closed child-lock state, the user may be prompted as to the child-lock state that the current aerosol-generating device is in. Specifically, the prompt can be performed in modes of LED, motor vibration, voice broadcast, characters, pictures and the like. This may enable a user to confirm in time the current operating state of the aerosol-generating device.
S150, in response to the fact that the aerosol generating device is in a child lock closed state, whether single atomization time of the aerosol generating device is larger than a second time threshold value is judged.
As an example, the determining whether the aerosol-generating device single nebulization time is greater than a second time threshold in response to the aerosol-generating device being in a child-lock off state comprises: when the aerosol generating device is in a child lock closing state, the user sucks the aerosol generating device to enable the aerosol generating device to be normally atomized, timing is started when the aerosol generating device is normally atomized, and whether the single atomization time of the aerosol generating device is larger than a second time threshold value or not is judged.
Alternatively, the single nebulization time may be understood as the duration of a single output of the aerosol-generating device, for example, when a user inhales on the aerosol-generating device, if the duration of a single inhalation of the user is too long, the user may be unable to inhale too much, which is detrimental to the health of the user, and therefore, the duration of a single output of the aerosol-generating device may be controlled to help the user inhale reasonably. Wherein the second time threshold may be set to 3-30s, preferably 10s here.
S160, in response to the aerosol-generating device single-time nebulization time being greater than a second time threshold, the aerosol-generating device stops nebulization.
As an example, the aerosol-generating device ceasing nebulization in response to the aerosol-generating device single nebulization time being greater than a second time threshold comprises: controlling the aerosol-generating device to turn off when the single nebulization time of the aerosol-generating device is greater than a second time threshold.
Optionally, taking the second time threshold as 10s as an example, when it is detected that the single-puff duration of the user is greater than 10s, the aerosol-generating device is controlled to be in the off state.
This may provide a good boost for a reasonable puff by the user by controlling the switching off of the aerosol-generating device based on the duration of a single puff by the user.
According to the method, the child lock is integrated on the microphone of the aerosol generating device to achieve the function of preventing children from inhaling the aerosol generating device, the original technical design is kept under the condition that the cost is not increased and the complex structural part is not increased, the child lock function is added, children are prevented from misusing, and the manufacturing cost is greatly reduced. And the user can be effectively assisted to reasonably suck by setting the overtime protection function.
Referring to fig. 2, a flow chart of a method of controlling an aerosol-generating device according to a further embodiment of the invention is shown.
Steps S210 to S260 are the same as steps S110 to S160, and are not described herein.
Before step S250, the method further includes:
s270, responding to the fact that the aerosol generating device is in a child lock closing state, and detecting an under-voltage state and a load short-circuit state of a battery of the aerosol generating device.
As an example, when a user is inhaling an aerosol-generating device, if the current aerosol-generating device is in a child-lock off state, the user may use the aerosol-generating device normally and will continue to detect an under-voltage condition and a load short circuit condition of the battery of the aerosol-generating device.
Optionally, the battery under-voltage means that the battery voltage is too low to affect normal operation, and the reason may be that the battery is used for a long time, which causes more power consumption of the memory and voltage drop. The load short circuit means that most links are invalid due to the fact that internal parts of the load are in trouble, and finally the whole load is broken down to be short circuit. Therefore, the normal operation of the aerosol generating device can be effectively ensured on one hand by detecting the battery under-voltage state and the load short-circuit state in the process of normally using the aerosol generating device, and on the other hand, the condition of accidents in the process of using the aerosol generating device can be prevented, so that the safety of users is further ensured.
S280, when the battery and the load are in a normal working state, the aerosol generating device atomizes normally.
And S290, when the battery and the load are in an abnormal working state, the aerosol generating device carries out fault prompting and cannot atomize normally.
As an example, the aerosol-generating device nebulizes normally when the battery and load are in normal operating conditions; the aerosol-generating device provides a fault indication when the battery and load are in abnormal operating conditions. Wherein, the mode of carrying out the trouble suggestion can be for modes such as LED, motor vibration, voice broadcast, characters, picture. Therefore, the user can timely master the working condition of the aerosol generating device, so that the user can conveniently carry out operations such as replacement or maintenance on the aerosol generating device based on the prompt, and the experience of the user is further improved.
Referring to figure 3, a flow chart of a method of controlling an aerosol-generating device according to another embodiment of the invention is shown.
Steps S310 to S390 are the same as those of steps S210 to S290, and are not described herein again.
Further included after step S360 is:
and S3100, starting timing when the aerosol generating device stops atomizing.
As an example, the starting timing when the aerosol-generating device stops nebulization comprises: the aerosol-generating device stops nebulizing when the user stops smoking during the aerosol-generating device outputting aerosol, or when the user's single puff duration is greater than a second time threshold. When the aerosol-generating device stops nebulization, timing is started with a timing function integrated in the microphone.
S3110, judging whether the time after the aerosol generating device stops atomizing is larger than a third time threshold value.
As an example, the determining whether the time after the aerosol-generating device stops nebulization is greater than a third time threshold may comprise determining whether the time duration is greater than the third time threshold based on a time duration counted by a timing function integrated in the microphone, wherein the third time threshold may be set to 20s.
Optionally, when the smoking is stopped or 10 seconds of smoking time is counted for outputting the smoke once in the process of outputting the smoke by the aerosol generating device, the child lock opening time is calculated according to the preset time, wherein the preset time is the third time threshold 20s.
It should be noted that, the third time threshold is not limited herein, and a person skilled in the art may configure the third time threshold with different times during the design process based on actual requirements.
S3120, when the time is greater than a third time threshold, placing the aerosol-generating device in a child-lock open state.
As an example, the causing the aerosol-generating device to be in a child-lock open state when the time is greater than a third time threshold comprises: when the time is greater than a third time threshold, placing the aerosol-generating device in a standby state.
Optionally, when the accumulated time period for starting timing after the aerosol generating device stops atomizing is greater than the third time threshold, the aerosol generating device is in a standby state and the child lock function is turned on.
Optionally, the mode of unlocking the child lock function may also be: on the basis of a counter integrated on the microphone, the counter starts counting when receiving a high level, and increases a unit value and updates the reference number each time the high level is received, that is, on the basis of the reference number, wherein the unit value may be 1, and the reference number may be set to 0. The aerosol-generating device is timed based on a timer integrated on the microphone, and the child-lock function is activated when the number of puffs reaches a preset threshold value within a predetermined period of time. Specifically, the number of times of suction within 3s may be 5. It should be noted that the preset time and the preset threshold are not limited herein.
And S3130, stopping timing when the time is smaller than a third threshold value.
As an example, when the time is less than a third threshold, stopping timing includes: stopping timing when the aerosol-generating device is detected to be in a puff state within a third time threshold period; re-timing when the aerosol-generating device is detected to be in a non-aspirating state.
Optionally, in the process of outputting smoke by the aerosol generating device, when the user stops smoking or the timing of the smoking time of 10 seconds is completed, the child lock opening time is calculated according to the preset time, if there is no smoking action before the timing is completed, the child lock is automatically opened, if there is a smoking action before the timing is completed, the timing is stopped, and after the smoking is completed, the timing is started according to the preset time again. Specifically, if the smoking action of the user on the aerosol generating device is not detected within the accumulated time of 20s after the aerosol generating device stops outputting smoke, the child lock function is automatically started. If the suction action of the user is detected within 20s, the timing is stopped, and the timing is restarted after the suction action of the user is completed.
According to the method, timing is started after pumping is stopped and overtime protection is carried out, and when the timing is finished, the standby mode is automatically started and the child lock function is started, so that the utilization rate of electric quantity can be greatly improved.
Referring to fig. 4, a circuit diagram of a microphone of an aerosol-generating device according to another embodiment of the invention is shown.
As an example, the microphone circuit is simple and is implemented by an SOT23-6 packaged IC, and the pins are respectively connected with 1 pin LED indicator, 1 pin load heating element, 1 pin air pressure microphone, 1 pin battery cell anode, 1 pin charging anode, and the remaining pin is a common terminal GND with the first 5 functions.
