An embodiment of the application provides a self-cleaning method of cooking equipment. Wherein the cooking apparatus has an air convection cooking function. The cooking device can be an air fryer, a pressure air fryer, an air fryer oven, a microwave oven and the like with air convection cooking function. The cooking apparatus includes a wind source assembly for causing air within the cooking apparatus to flow to form an air stream, and a heating assembly. The heating device is used for heating the airflow in the cooking device.

The self-cleaning method of the cooking device comprises the following steps:

s11: the air source assembly of the cooking apparatus is controlled to operate at a first rotational speed such that air within the cooking apparatus forms an air flow.

When cleaning a cooking apparatus, it is necessary to form a flowing air flow inside the cooking apparatus. The air source assembly of the cooking equipment is controlled to work at a first rotating speed, and the air source assembly drives air to flow so that air in the cooking equipment forms air flow.

In some embodiments, the cooking apparatus is provided with an air outlet and an opening adjustment mechanism. The step of controlling the air source assembly of the cooking apparatus to operate at the first rotational speed further comprises: and controlling the opening adjusting mechanism to adjust the opening of the air outlet to a first opening value.

S12: and controlling the heating component of the cooking equipment to heat the air flow in the cooking equipment so that grease in the cooking equipment is gasified into oil smoke under the action of the heated air flow.

When cleaning the cooking apparatus, it is necessary to heat and gasify the grease remaining in the cooking apparatus. And controlling the heating component of the cooking equipment to heat the air flow in the cooking equipment so that grease in the cooking equipment is gasified into oil smoke under the action of the heated air flow.

The air in the cooking equipment is driven to flow through the air source component to form air flow, the heating component heats the air flow, heat is transferred to all positions of the cooking equipment through the air flow, the oil attached to the cooking equipment is effectively heated, and after the air flow temperature in the cooking equipment reaches the temperature condition that the oil generates oil smoke, the oil can be gasified into oil smoke and is separated from the original attached surface. The flow of the airflow can accelerate the lampblack to separate from the original attachment surface.

It should be noted that there is no strict precedence restriction in the operation of the wind source assembly and the heating assembly. The air source assembly can start working before the heating assembly, namely the air source assembly works at a first rotation speed so that air in the cooking equipment forms air flow; the heating assembly of the cooking apparatus is then controlled to heat the air flow within the cooking apparatus. Alternatively, the wind source assembly and the heating assembly may be operated simultaneously, and the heating assembly is activated while the wind source assembly is operated. Or the heating component can be started to be preheated to a preset temperature, the wind source component is operated at a first rotating speed to form air flow, and at the moment, when the heating component is independently started to be heated to the preset temperature, the local temperature is not excessively high, so that parts are not damaged.

In some embodiments, the step of controlling a heating assembly of the cooking apparatus to heat an air flow within the cooking apparatus comprises:

s121: the heating assembly is controlled to generate heat with the first heating power so that the temperature of the air flow in the cooking equipment reaches the first temperature.

Since the internal environment of the cooking apparatus is at a low temperature at the initial stage of heating of the heating assembly, most of the heat generated by heating of the heating assembly is absorbed by the parts, so that the temperature of the air flow rises slowly. In order to accelerate the lifting airflow to the first temperature, the heating component can be controlled to generate heat with the first heating power, so that the temperature of the airflow and the temperature of the internal parts of the cooking appliance are continuously increased until the temperature of the airflow in the cooking device reaches the first temperature. This stage is a rapid warming stage.

Specifically, the heating assembly includes a first heating element and a second heating element. The step of controlling the heating assembly to generate heat at the first heating power includes controlling the first heating element and the second heating element in the heating assembly to generate heat simultaneously. Wherein the cooking apparatus has a heat conduction cooking function, wherein the first heating member is for generating heat under the heat conduction cooking function, and the second heating member is for generating heat under the air convection cooking function.

S122: the heating assembly is controlled to generate heat at a second heating power that is less than the first heating power, such that an air flow temperature within the cooking apparatus reaches a second temperature from the first temperature, wherein the second temperature is greater than the first temperature.

During the process of the air flow reaching the first temperature, the temperature of the heating assembly and other components inside the cooking device are raised to a certain degree. The temperature of the heating component and the part of the part contacted with the heating component is higher than the air flow temperature, the air flow temperature cannot be absorbed by the part of the part, and the energy output by the heating component is required to be relatively small when the air flow temperature rises, so that the heating component can be controlled to generate heat at a second heating power which is smaller than the first heating power at the moment, and the air flow temperature in the cooking equipment can reach the second temperature from the first temperature. Wherein the second temperature is greater than the first temperature. This stage is a steady temperature rise stage. When the temperature of the air flow reaches and continues to the second temperature, the stage is a high-temperature cleaning stage.

In addition, the heating component works with higher first heating power, the current is relatively larger, the influence on the temperature rise of the electric device is large, and the electric device is not suitable for being prolonged for a long time, so after the air flow temperature reaches the first temperature, the heating component is controlled to heat with second heating power smaller than the first heating power, the air flow temperature rising requirement can be met, the electric device is protected, and the service life of the electric device is prolonged.

Specifically, the heating assembly includes a first heating element and a second heating element. The step of controlling the heating assembly to generate heat at a second heating power that is less than the first heating power includes controlling the second heating member in the heating assembly to generate heat alone such that the second heating power is less than the first heating power. Wherein the cooking apparatus has a heat conduction cooking function, wherein the first heating member is for generating heat under the heat conduction cooking function, and the second heating member is for generating heat under the air convection cooking function. Controlling the second heating element to generate heat can improve the air flow temperature and promote efficiency.

Of course, in other embodiments, the heating assembly may further include a heating element, where the heating power of the heating element is adjusted to reach the first heating power and the second heating power respectively; or, the heating assembly may also include more than three heating elements, and the working states of the heating elements are adjusted, so as to respectively achieve the first heating power and the second heating power.

In some embodiments, since the air flow temperature is also relatively low during the heating of the air flow by the heating assembly such that the air flow temperature reaches the first temperature, and the air flow temperature is relatively high during the period of time when the heating assembly heats the air flow such that the air flow temperature reaches the second temperature from the first temperature, in order to match the air flow temperature, the local overheating is prevented, so that the temperature inside the cooking apparatus is uniformly raised, and the step of controlling the air source assembly of the cooking apparatus to operate at the first rotational speed includes: the first rotational speed in a period from the first temperature to the second temperature is set to be greater than the first rotational speed before the first temperature is reached.

In this embodiment, the temperature sensor detects that the temperature of the air flow reaches the first temperature, so as to adjust the heating power of the heating component. In other embodiments, the heating power of the heating component can be adjusted according to time, and the heating power of the heating component can be adjusted when the air flow temperature reaches the first temperature after the air flow is heated for a preset time under the condition that the heating conditions are basically the same.

S13: the air source assembly of the cooking apparatus is controlled to operate at a second rotational speed greater than the first rotational speed so that the cooking fumes exit the cooking apparatus with the airflow.

After the grease in the cooking equipment is gasified into the oil smoke under the action of the heated air flow, the oil smoke needs to be carried out of the cooking equipment. The air source assembly of the cooking apparatus is controlled to operate at a second rotational speed such that the cooking fumes exit the cooking apparatus with the airflow. Wherein the second rotational speed is greater than the first rotational speed.

The main function of the wind source component working at the first rotation speed is to drive air to flow, so that the air in the cooking equipment flows fully to form air flow. After the follow-up heating assembly carries out heating work, the air current that flows can drive heat transfer for the inside even and abundant heating of cooking equipment, so first rotational speed can be lower relatively, and the fluid velocity in the cooking equipment can be slower relatively, in order to guarantee the inside even and abundant heating of cooking equipment, reduces the heat dissipation simultaneously, accelerates the inside heating rate of cooking equipment.

When the temperature of the air flow in the cooking equipment reaches the temperature condition that oil and grease generate oil fume, the oil and grease can be gasified into the oil fume and separate from the original attaching surface, at the moment, the air source assembly can work at a relatively high second rotating speed, and the air flow speed is increased, so that the oil fume is quickly brought out of the cooking equipment from the air outlet of the cooking equipment. The self-cleaning method of the cooking equipment does not need to wash the cooking equipment, does not need to detach and clean the parts of the cooking equipment, is suitable for cleaning the cooking equipment with an air convection cooking function, and is beneficial to cleaning the cooking equipment which cannot be washed and detached. The self-cleaning method of the cooking equipment is convenient and simple, saves user operation and improves user experience.

Further, the step of controlling the wind source assembly of the cooking apparatus to operate at a second rotational speed greater than the first rotational speed comprises: the air source assembly of the cooking apparatus is controlled to operate at a second rotational speed greater than the first rotational speed, while the second heating member is controlled to maintain an air flow temperature within the cooking apparatus at a temperature not less than a second temperature, wherein the second temperature is greater than a maximum temperature allowed by the convection cooking function.

When the air source component of the cooking equipment works at the second rotating speed, so that the oil smoke is discharged out of the cooking equipment along with the air flow, the second heating piece continuously works, the air flow temperature in the cooking equipment is kept at not less than the second temperature, the oil is ensured to be gasified into the oil smoke continuously under the action of the air flow, and the oil and impurities remained in the cooking equipment are thoroughly cleaned. The second temperature is higher than the highest temperature allowed by the air convection cooking function, so that grease and impurities can be thoroughly and quickly heated into lampblack.

In some embodiments, the cooking apparatus is provided with an air outlet and an opening adjustment mechanism. The step of controlling the wind source assembly of the cooking apparatus to operate at a second rotational speed greater than the first rotational speed further comprises: and controlling the opening adjusting mechanism to adjust the opening of the air outlet to a second opening value larger than the first opening value. The air outlet opening is adjusted to a second opening value larger than the first opening value, so that the air flow speed can be improved by matching with the work of the air source assembly.

S14: and controlling the heating assembly to stop heating in response to the cleaning end condition, and controlling the wind source assembly of the cooking apparatus to operate at a third rotation speed which is less than or equal to the first rotation speed.

And responding to the cleaning end condition, cleaning residual grease in the cooking equipment, discharging the residual grease out of the cooking equipment along with the air flow, controlling the heating component to stop heating, and keeping the temperature in the cooking equipment higher without generating heat, wherein the air flow is required to dissipate heat, and the air source component of the cooking equipment can be controlled to work at a third rotating speed which is less than or equal to the first rotating speed so as to reduce the temperature in the cooking equipment. This stage is the exhaust cooling stage.

Wherein the cleaning end condition may be a time condition, and in response to the cleaning end condition, the residual grease in the cooking apparatus is cleaned and discharged out of the cooking apparatus with the air flow. Specifically, the cleaning end condition may be that the wind source assembly is operated at the second rotational speed for a first period of time; alternatively, the cleaning end condition may be that the temperature of the air flow within the cooking apparatus reaches the second temperature for a first period of time, or the like.

And controlling the wind source assembly to stop working in response to the working exiting condition of the wind source assembly. Specifically, the wind-source-assembly-operation-exit condition may be that the wind-source assembly is operated at the third rotational speed for the second period of time. At this point, the system may prompt the self-cleaning to end.

To sum up, this application makes the interior air of cooking equipment form the air current through setting up the wind regime subassembly to set up heating element heating air current, make the oil in the cooking equipment gasify into the oil smoke under the effect of the air current after the heating, further drive oil smoke discharge cooking equipment through the wind regime subassembly, realize the cleanness to cooking equipment.
