Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an information terminal device capable of communicating with a host device, a method of supplying a cooking recipe using the host device, and a method of presenting a cooking procedure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Generally, for example, it is very difficult for a housewife to make a daily meal menu. If the food in the daily meals is the same, you will get bored with the food. Then, the user looks at the cookbook, searches for the food of the day, and cooks the food according to the cooking recipe described in the cookbook.

[0003]

However, the amount of cooking recipes described in a cookbook is limited, and many cookbooks must be purchased in order to obtain many cooking recipes. Therefore, as cookbooks increase,
We had to secure a place to store cookbooks. Further, when the number of cookbooks increases, the amount of cooking recipes also increases. However, it is very difficult to find a cooking recipe of a desired dish from the cooking books.

[0004] One cookbook has an index and a table of contents classified by genre of food and ingredients.
You can't easily find the food or recipe you want. For example, it has been difficult to find foods and cooking recipes from calories, and food cooking recipes from taste. In addition, since cookbooks generally describe ingredients and cooking methods separately, it is necessary to understand cooking recipes before cooking before cooking. It was difficult to confirm the required amount and the like.

[0005] On the other hand, personal computers and the like have become widespread, and devices that support cooking of dishes using the personal computers and the like have been desired. However, in order to store cooking recipes for many dishes on a general-use personal computer, the capacity of the personal computer must be increased. Therefore, for general users,
It was not economically feasible to construct a device that supports cooking of dishes. Also, since personal computers used in ordinary households are sometimes used for other purposes such as word processing and spreadsheets, storing data relating to many cooking recipes in a personal computer is not sufficient in terms of storage capacity. Although it is difficult, when functions such as a word processor and a spreadsheet are deleted, the purpose of use of the personal computer is limited. In addition, dishes and cooking methods of dishes are constantly devised, and each time a recipe is devised, updating a cooking recipe or dish stored in a personal computer is limited in terms of storage capacity, and operation is limited. It was especially difficult for unfamiliar housewives. of course,
It is economically inconvenient to purchase a book that describes each time a dish or cooking method is devised.

[0006] An object of the present invention is to provide an easy and economical support for cooking food without using a cookbook, for example.

[0007]

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention is directed to a host device (for example, a host device 2 shown in FIG. 2) for storing a plurality of cooking recipe data, and the host device. An information terminal device that can freely communicate with the device (for example, the mobile phone 6 and the information terminal device 8 shown in FIG. 2)
, Wherein the cooking recipe data includes data on ingredients used for each of the cooking procedures and data on a cooking method for each of the cooking procedures. The host device receives the distribution request information of the consumer, which includes the information on the cooking search to be performed, based on the received distribution request information,
A search step in which the host device searches for at least one cooking recipe data from the plurality of cooking recipe data; and the host device displays or sounds the searched cooking recipe data on the information terminal device.

[0009] Further, since a plurality of cooking recipe data are stored in the host device, a cooking user can obtain a cooking recipe simply by installing (obtaining) an information terminal device. Therefore, the recipe consumer does not need to prepare a cookbook in order to make a daily meal menu, and does not need to consider the storage location of the cookbook. Furthermore, since it is not necessary to purchase many cookbooks to obtain many cooking recipes, the purchase cost of cookbooks can be reduced. In addition, by simply increasing the cooking recipe data of the host device in accordance with the food or cooking product devised every day, the recipe consumer can easily obtain information on such cooking or cooking recipe.

[0010] Further, for each cooking procedure, the data of the ingredients used in the cooking procedure and the data of the cooking method are displayed or output by voice on the information terminal device.

Then, in the mobile phone 6, the processing unit 60 displays a point screen, a material screen, or a cooking screen based on the display point data 108, the display material data 112, or the cooking method data 110, respectively.

FIG. 17 shows an example of the point screen. As shown in FIG. 17, on the point screen, important points in cooking the food are displayed. FIG.
FIG. 8 shows an example of the material screen. The point screen is linked to a material screen and a preparation screen.

As shown in FIG. 18, on the material screen, the ingredients and seasonings used for cooking the food and the amounts thereof are displayed collectively. The material screen in this example displays the amount of ingredients for four meals and the amount of seasonings. Here, the amounts of ingredients and seasonings other than four servings (for example, one serving, two servings, three servings, five servings, etc.) are respectively linked to the four servings material screen. By instructing the link portion, a request for browsing a material screen other than four servings (for example, in the case of one serving, designation data for one serving) is transmitted from the mobile phone 6 to the host device 2, and the host device From 2, display material data other than four servings is transmitted to the mobile phone 6. Subsequently, the mobile phone 6 displays the amounts of the ingredients other than the four servings and the amounts of the seasonings based on the transmitted display material data other than the four servings. Therefore, even in foods containing ingredients and ingredients that are n times (n is an integer) times one serving and do not become n servings,
The user can grasp the amount of ingredients and ingredients of the serving. In addition,
A point screen and a how-to screen are linked to the material screen.

As shown in FIG. 19, a cooking procedure for the food and a method for making the food are displayed on the cooking screen. That is, cooking is completed using the ingredients and seasonings displayed on the ingredient screen according to the recipe screen.

(12) Flow of Provision of Cooking Recipes by the Present System: Next, an example of the flow of processing of the present system and a method of providing a cooking recipe using the present system will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. explain. In the following description, the case where the user uses the mobile phone 6 will be mainly described, but the same flow will be applied when the information terminal device 8 is used.

When a user accesses the host device 2 via the Internet 4 using the mobile phone 6, if the user has not been registered (hereinafter, this user is referred to as an unregistered user), the above is described. As described above, the user registration processing is performed based on the user registration / deletion program 222 (step S1). That is, when an unregistered user inputs that registration is to be performed via the mobile phone 6, user data is transmitted from the mobile phone 6 to the host device 2 and registration of the user is completed. Become.).

When a user who has been registered (hereinafter referred to as a registered user) accesses or when a user who has not been registered is registered, a user authentication process is performed based on the user authentication program 224. (Step S2). That is, when the user accesses the host device 2 via the Internet 4 using the mobile phone 6, a process of determining whether the user is a registered user or an unregistered user is performed.

When user authentication is performed (the user is determined to be a registered user), the host device 2 transmits search condition designation input data (genre designation input data, calorie data) to the cellular phone 6 owned by the registered user. The designated input data, the taste designated input data, and the foodstuff designated input data) are transmitted to the mobile phone 6. The mobile phone 6 displays a search condition designation input screen (one of the screens shown in FIGS. 8 to 11) based on the search condition designation input data (step S).
3).

When the registered user specifies and inputs search conditions using the mobile phone 6 on the search condition specification input screen (step S4: Yes), search condition specification data (genre specification data, calorie area specification) The mobile phone 6 transmits data, taste designation data, and foodstuff designation data to the host device 2 (step S5). The host device 2 performs a search process (genre search, calorie search, taste search, food search) based on the search condition designation data (step S6). Further, almost simultaneously with the search processing, the host device 2 stores the search condition designation data in association with the user ID of the registered user, and stores the history. That is, the host device 2 executes the user database construction program 236
The above-described user database construction processing is performed based on.

Subsequently, the host device 2 transmits the search result display data to the mobile phone 6, and the mobile phone 6 displays a search result display screen (for example, a screen shown in FIG. 13) (step S7). Then, when the registered user inputs, using the mobile phone 6, that the cooking recipe of the food displayed on the search result screen is to be browsed, and a request for browsing is transmitted from the mobile phone 6 to the host device 2. (Step S8:
Yes), the host device 2 performs a process of transmitting the searched cooking recipe data to the mobile phone 6. That is, the host device 2 browses the searched cooking recipe data (heading data 104, food image data 106, display point data 108, cooking supplement data 110, display material data 112, music data 114). Is transmitted to the mobile phone 6. Then, the mobile phone 6 displays a heading screen (an example is shown in FIG. 14), a point screen (an example is shown in FIG. 17), and a material screen (an example is shown in FIG. 18) based on the transmitted browsing data. ), And how to make it (Fig. 1
9 is shown). Thereby, the present system provides the cooking recipe to the registered user, and the registered user can obtain the cooking recipe (step S9). When these screens are displayed, music based on the music data 114 is output from the mobile phone 6. Then, for example, when the registered user has not transmitted a message to the effect that the search is to be performed again using the mobile phone 6 (step S10: No), this processing ends.

Now, the registered user uses this system,
When a cooking recipe is searched, a usage history is accumulated in the user data of the registered user by the user database construction process. Therefore, the present system performs the above-described irregular search processing based on the use history. For example, after step S9, when the registered user transmits to the host device 2 a message indicating that the search is to be performed again using the mobile phone 6 (step S10:
Yes), the search condition designation input screen is displayed again on the mobile phone 6 (step S3).

When the registered user specifies and inputs search conditions using the mobile phone 6 based on the search condition specification input screen (step S4: Yes), the mobile phone 6 transmits the search condition specification data to the host device 2. (Step S5). Then, the host device 2 executes step S6.
Prior to the processing of (1), the above-described irregularity search processing is randomly performed based on the irregularity search program 238.

Then, the host device 2 transmits the data for displaying the irregular search result to the portable telephone 6, and the portable telephone 6 displays the irregular search result display screen (for example, the screen shown in FIG. 21). As shown in FIG. 21, on the anomaly result display screen,
Regardless of the search condition input in step S4,
A list of dishes searched under different search conditions is displayed. For example, the host device 2 executes the irregular search program 23
The processing of <7> above is automatically performed based on No. 8, and the result of the irregular search processing is transmitted.

[0143] Then, the registered user inputs using the mobile phone 6 a message that the cooking recipe of the dish displayed on the irregular search result screen is to be viewed.
Is transmitted to the host device 2, the host device 2 performs a process of transmitting browsing data of the cooking recipe data searched for irregularly to the mobile phone 6. Then, the mobile phone 6 provides the registered user with the cooking recipe of the cooking recipe data that has been irregularly searched. If the irregular search process is not performed, the process proceeds to step S6. Step S1
In step 5, when the mobile phone 6 transmits to the host device 2 a message that the cooking recipe of the food item searched for by the irregular search is not browsed, the process proceeds to step S6.

As described above, by the above-described processing <7>,
Since the search is automatically performed in consideration of the calorie intake of the registered user, uneven eating of the registered user can be suppressed.
Note that the processing in step S13 is not limited to the above-described processing <7>, but may be processing <1> to <6>. << 1 >>
By performing the processes <3>, it is possible to realize a high-speed search that matches the taste of the registered user. By performing the processing of <4> to <6>, it is possible to suppress the registered user from eating out.

According to the above embodiment, the host device 2 stores a plurality of cooking recipe data. And
The user can use the mobile phone 6 and the information terminal device 8 to search for cooking recipe data of desired food from a plurality of cooking recipe data. Then, the searched cooking recipe data is transmitted to the mobile phone 6 or the information terminal device 8 used by the user, and the mobile phone 6 or the information terminal device 8 presents (provides) the cooking recipe. Therefore, the user can use his or her own mobile phone 6 or information terminal device 8.
By using, a desired cooking recipe can be easily and economically obtained without preparing a cookbook or the like in which the cooking recipe is described.

[0146] Further, the device that stores the cooking recipe data is the host device 2, and the search process is also performed by the host device 2. Therefore, the processes of the information terminal device 8 and the mobile phone 6 are only display, sound output, and data transmission / reception based on the cooking recipe data. Therefore, the present system can be used even with a simple computer such as the mobile phone 6. Further, in the information terminal device 8, since it is not necessary to store all the cooking recipe data, when the information terminal device 8 is a home personal computer, processing such as a word processor can be performed as another processing. The usage of the terminal device 8 can be applied to other than the present system.

(13) Other functions of this system (for special registered users): Special cooking recipe data may be transmitted to registered users who have registered for a certain period of time, such as one year. . The special cooking recipe data is, for example, secret cooking recipe data by a professional cook or cooking recipe data for each registered user. As a method of identifying a registered user who has registered for a certain period or more, the user database storage unit 260
May be determined based on the data relating to the registration date stored in. That is, the processing unit 210 determines whether or not the user is a special user (whether or not a certain period has elapsed since the registration) based on the registration date stored in the user database storage unit 260. Then, in addition to performing processing for transmitting the e-mail to the e-mail address stored in the user database storage unit 260, the processing unit 210 transmits the e-mail together with the normal cooking recipe data distribution (transmission). May be performed. For example, when transmitting an e-mail to an e-mail address, the processing unit 210 may transmit the e-mail at regular intervals (for example, every day).

Further, medical treatment data may be stored as user data, and a search based on the medical treatment data may be performed. For example, in step S1 of FIG. 20, at the time of user registration, the user's health condition may be input and designated as shown in FIG. In this example,
As shown in FIG. 3, "hypertension" and "diabetes" are displayed on the user registration screen, and check boxes are displayed in correspondence with the respective boxes. With this screen, the user can designate and input a hypertension symptom and a diabetes symptom as his or her health condition. Then, when the user designates and inputs the check box with “high blood pressure” or “diabetes”, the user registration / deletion program 222 treats the user ID with recuperation data (that is, data indicating that it is hypertension or diabetes) Are stored in the user database storage unit 260 in association with each other. On the other hand, the high blood pressure flag and the diabetes flag are associated with the cooking recipe ID 100 of each cooking recipe data of the cooking recipe database stored in the cooking recipe storage unit 250. That is, if the hypertension flag of certain cooking recipe data is “○”,
The cooking recipe data is cooking recipe data of a food product for hypertension. When the hypertension flag of certain cooking recipe data is “x”, the cooking recipe data is cooking recipe data of a food item not for high blood pressure. The same applies to the case of the diabetes flag.

Then, for example, the irregular search program 23
8, the following processing is performed randomly. << 9 >> When the medical treatment data of the user data is “hypertension”, the processing unit 210 searches the cooking database for cooking recipe data with the hypertension flag ““ ”. << 10 >> When the medical treatment data of the user data is "diabetes", the processing unit 210 searches the cooking database for cooking recipe data whose diabetes flag is "O". As a result, it is possible to search for cooking recipe data of foods suitable for hypertension or cooking recipe data of foods suitable for diabetes, and the user can use the cooking recipe data to search for cooking recipes from the mobile phone 6 or the information terminal device 8. Can be obtained.

Further, for example, the medical treatment data may be a salt intake restriction or a calorie intake restriction according to age. In this case, the salt of the food is associated with the cooking recipe ID 100 of the cooking recipe data. Then, for example, the irregularity search program 238 searches for cooking recipe data according to the salt intake restriction and the calorie intake restriction.

(14) Other functions of the present system (cooking recipes for each region): As in the case of the Kanto and the Kansai, the cooking recipes must be different for each region so that the seasoning differs between Kanto and Kansai. Is not always desirable. Therefore, a method of transmitting a cooking recipe according to a region may be realized as follows. That is, there are a method of changing the cooking recipe data according to the registered user's location, and a method of changing the cooking recipe data according to the transmission point of the mobile phone or the like.

As an implementation method, first, the host device 2
In advance, cooking recipe data for each region (for example, for each region such as Kanto and Kansai, or for each prefecture or municipalities) may be prepared. deep. In that case, a separate and independent database may be prepared for each region (for example, the cooking recipe database itself in FIG. 5 is prepared for each region), or a database is prepared in which only the ingredients of the dishes are different. (For example, a plurality of display material data 112 of the cooking recipe database in FIG. 5 may be prepared as a separate table for each region.) Alternatively, a host device may be prepared for each region (for example, a host device corresponding to each region may be installed for a recipe consumer in each region such as Kanto and Kansai).

In the case of (1), cooking recipe data corresponding to the location of the location data of the user stored in the user database storage section 260 is used. For example, when the location of the user is Tokyo, cooking recipe data for Kanto is used. In the case of, since the transmission point is determined by a base station or the like that relays information, cooking recipe data corresponding to the location of the base station or the like is used.
For example, a user accessing the host device
In the case of access via a base station in Kojimachi, Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo (although the area is actually smaller), cooking recipe data for Kanto is used.

As described above, by changing the cooking recipe data in accordance with the region, it is possible to provide cooking recipe data that is appropriate for the region and, consequently, seasoned for each user.

(15) Other functions of this system (material change search): In the above-mentioned step S7, all the ingredients of the dish are displayed on the ingredient screen. By changing a part of the displayed ingredients, another dish related to the ingredients of the dish may be searched. As an implementation method, for example, an ingredient search designation screen is linked to each ingredient displayed on the ingredient screen, and cooking recipe data of another dish including the designated ingredient is searched on this screen. You may do it.

For example, if the material screen in step S7 is a screen of "chicken curry and rice", "chicken curry and rice"
The food search designation screen is linked to "Chicken", which is the food ingredient. Then, on the food search designation screen, "pork", "
"Beef" can be specified. For example, if "Pork" is specified, another dish containing "Pork" and other ingredients other than "Chicken" in "Chicken Curry and Rice" is searched. In this case, the data of the ingredients included in “chicken curry rice” is stored in the host device 2. The search result is, for example, “pork curry rice”.
Then, the searched cooking recipe data of another dish is transmitted to the mobile phone 6, and a material screen, a preparation screen, a point screen, or a heading screen is displayed.

As described above, by changing a part of the ingredients, a related cooking recipe is provided to the user, so that it is possible to quickly search for a cooking recipe of a food item that suits the user's purpose. .

(16) Other functions (discount ticket issuance) of this system and examples of its use: Now, the information terminal device 8 installed in a retail store will be described. When the material screen is displayed on the information terminal device 8 and the screen is printed from the printing unit 88, a discount coupon of the material displayed on the material screen is attached to the printed printing paper. Then, for example, when the user purchases the material displayed on the material screen at the retail store together with the discount ticket, the price of the food is discounted. In the case of the mobile phone 6, a material screen may be presented, and a fee may be discounted when the material displayed on the material screen is purchased. Note that a discount ticket may be printed from the printing unit 68 of the mobile phone 6.

(17) Other functions of this system (step display of cooking method): In the above-described method of presenting a cooking recipe, a material screen and a cooking screen are different. However, in this case, it is not known which cooking step (cooking procedure) to use which material and how much. That is, it is necessary to cook after grasping and preparing all the ingredients, and the necessary ingredients and the like are not known at each stage of each cooking step, which is particularly difficult for a beginner to understand. In addition, even if it is one material, there are not a few cases where it is used separately in multiple cooking steps,
In such a case, it is difficult to grasp the amount in each cooking step. Therefore, the following embodiment may be used as a method of presenting a cooking recipe.

That is, the above-mentioned cooking method data 110 is set as cooking procedure data in which a material for each cooking step of the cooking and a cooking method of the cooking step are described. And
By transmitting the cooking procedure data to the mobile phone 6 and the information terminal device 8, necessary materials are displayed in each cooking step together with the cooking method. For example, as a presentation method as one display screen, the cooking method is displayed on the entire screen, and the ingredients are displayed on the lower part of the screen (although the upper part of the screen or another window may be displayed). When the display screen of the mobile phone 6 is small, the cooking method and the material in the cooking step are switched and displayed automatically or by a user's input. By doing so, it is possible to know the necessary materials in each cooking step, which can contribute to convenience in cooking.

If the mobile phone 6 or the information terminal device 8 can output sound, guidance by voice may be provided. That is, for example, the cooking method is displayed on the display screen, but the cooking method may be displayed in such a manner as "add two curries and two teaspoon salt". Further, a sound at the time of cooking in each cooking step may be output. For example, when the cooking step is for sauteing, a sound for sauting is output, and when the cooking step is for cutting food, a sound for cutting food with a kitchen knife is output. Further, the elapsed time after the display screen of each cooking step is displayed may be displayed on the mobile phone 6 or the information terminal device 8.

Further, the notification may be performed in accordance with the cooking time required for each cooking step. That is, for example, an alert message may be displayed, or a notification sound such as a voice may be emitted. In the case of the mobile phone 6, a mode of outputting a telephone ringing tone may be employed. At this time, the display time of the screen displaying the cooking method may be substantially the same as the cooking time required for each cooking step.

The method of presenting the cooking recipe described here is as follows.
This method can be realized as the mobile phone 6 or the information terminal device 8 alone. However, when information is transmitted from the host device 2 to the mobile phone 6 and the like, and the information is displayed and sound output on the mobile phone 6 The host device 2 may transmit the information related to the cooking method and the ingredients for each cooking step, and the mobile phone 6 or the like that receives the information may display and output the sound. In this case, for example, the host device 2 can make a call to the mobile phone 6 at the time of alerting.
