In this case, Appliance Output (W) may be an output of the cooking device, Heating Time may be a heating time, and Temp of Point may correspond to a set position of the product to be cooked. For example, Temp of Point 1 is the lower part of the product to be cooked (frozen dumplings), Temp of Point 2 is the center of the product to be cooked (frozen dumplings), and Temp of Point 3 is the upper part of the product to be cooked (frozen dumplings), respectively. It may be a predicted temperature according to the heating time.

The recipe providing apparatus may store information on the cooking device, information on the product to be cooked, and predictive heating information on the combination of the cooking device and the product to be cooked.

When a recipe request matching the predicted heating information stored in the recipe providing device occurs, the recipe providing device may selectively output information on a heating time suitable for a cooking purpose from the stored predicted heating information.

For example, the recipe providing apparatus may provide a heating time corresponding to the combination of the cooking apparatus (Appliance ID) and the product to be cooked (Product ID) to the cooking apparatus or the user terminal from the stored predicted heating information.

If there is no information corresponding to the combination of the cooking device and the product to be cooked in the predicted heating information stored in the recipe providing device, machine learning (multivariate regression) is performed based on the stored predicted heating information to generate the predicted heating information And, the generated predicted heating information may be provided to the cooking apparatus or the user terminal. In this case, the predicted heating information generated through machine learning may be stored in the recipe providing device.

<Recipe correction according to the use of cooking equipment>

According to an embodiment, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe based on the number of times the cooking apparatus is used. For example, with continuous use of a microwave oven, the output may decrease. The recipe providing apparatus may increase the cooking time of a recipe in consideration of a decrease in output due to continuous use.

For example, the recipe providing apparatus converts an output decrease rate according to the expiration date of the cooking apparatus, calculates the output of the cooking apparatus according to the output decrease rate, and performs <recipe correction according to the output of the cooking apparatus> based on the calculated output In the process, the corrected recipe (eg, changing the heating (cooking) time) may be provided to the cooking apparatus or the user terminal.

<Recipe correction according to the internal volume of the cooking device>

According to an embodiment, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe based on the internal volume of the cooking apparatus. For example, when the internal volume of the oven is reduced, there is a need to reduce the output of the oven. The recipe providing apparatus may adjust the cooking conditions of the recipe in consideration of the internal volume of the cooking apparatus.

<Recipe correction according to the internal configuration of the cooking device>

According to an embodiment, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe based on whether a specific configuration is included in the cooking apparatus.

For example, when the cooking apparatus does not include a turntable, the uniformity of heating is reduced, so that it is necessary to extend the cooking time. The recipe providing apparatus may increase the cooking time of a recipe when the cooking apparatus does not include a turntable.

Also, when the cooking apparatus does not have an inverter, the recipe providing apparatus according to an embodiment may correct the recipe by converting the output control of the cooking apparatus in units of time.

As shown in Table 5, when the cooking device does not have an inverter, the recipe providing device may provide the duty cycle and on time of the cooking device to the cooking device or the user terminal in order to control the output of the cooking device. have.

If the cooking device is provided with a recipe having an on time of 46(s) at a duty cycle of 60(s), it operates (ON) for 46 seconds every 60 seconds and does not operate for 14 seconds. (OFF) can be.

<Recipe correction by simultaneous use of complex heat sources - Improvement of uniformity >

According to an embodiment, the recipe providing apparatus may adjust the recipe to use a plurality of heating means simultaneously to shorten the cooking time and uniformly heat the inside and the outside of the product. For example, when a bulky and thick frozen hamburger steak is heated with a single heat source, the cooking time is lengthened in order to increase the temperature of the internal product, and the surface temperature is excessively increased or dried. Accordingly, by heating the product using a heat source that is easy for internal heating and a heat source that is easy for external heating at the same time in combination, not only the cooking time can be shortened but also the product can be uniformly heated, thereby improving the cooking quality. The recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe to cook using a microwave capable of heating the inside of the product and steam capable of heating the surface of the product at the same time, and may reduce the cooking time.

If the cooking device (main heat source: microwave) has an additional heat source (grill or hot air, etc.) can be performed.

The recipe providing apparatus may store information about the cooking apparatus including microwaves and various heat sources.

The recipe providing device includes variables of a cooking device including a complex heat source, for example, food shape and composition of the product to be cooked, dielectric constant, magnetic permeability, specific heat, thermal conductivity, density, electrical conductivity, latent heat of phase change, microwave output, micro It is possible to predict the heating of the cooked product by comprehensively considering the wave control method, the grill output, the hot air heating output, the characteristics of the circulation fan, and the 3D internal structure of the cooking device.

Heating prediction may be performed to correspond to any combination of the settable number of outputs of microwaves and the number of outputs of additional configurable heat sources (grills or hot air). For example, if the settable number of microwave outputs is 4 (700W, 450W, 300W, 100W), and the settable additional heat source output number is 3 (1500W, 1000W, 500W), the heating prediction is 4*3= Heating predictions for 12 heat source combinations may proceed.

For each heating prediction result, a heating prediction system for each heat source combination is generated through machine learning (Multi-variate linear regression) of the temperature distribution (Temp of Point) for each location of the product to be cooked, and the generated heating prediction system uses the recipe It may be stored in the providing device, and the recipe providing device may correct the recipe by selecting a result suitable for the cooking purpose from the stored heating prediction system, and may provide the corrected recipe to the cooking device or the user terminal.

On the other hand, when the main heat source of the cooking device is a grill or hot air, not a microwave, the recipe providing device may correct the recipe by using the stored data on the grill or hot air oven. At this time, the data includes the three-dimensional (3D) structure of the cooking zone of the cooking device, the material of the structure, the output of the grill, the output of the heat source that generates the hot air, and the fan characteristic (Fan Curve) of the internal fan structure that outputs the hot air. may include

The recipe providing apparatus may correct the recipe by referring to the average temperature, the minimum temperature, and the maximum temperature of the temperature distribution (Temp of Point) for each position of the cooked product with respect to the microwave-based cooking apparatus described above.

At this time, in the case of a grill or hot air oven, because heated air collides with the food surface and heat is transferred to the inside of the product, heating prediction is made by considering variables such as specific heat, thermal conductivity, and latent heat of phase change according to moisture content of the food to be heated. can proceed. Heating prediction data for a grill or hot air may be expressed in the form of a temperature distribution for each location according to a heating time similar to Table 5, and may be stored in the recipe providing device.

<Recipe correction by using sequence of complex heat source - texture improvement>

In another embodiment, the recipe may be adjusted to use a plurality of heating means in sequence so that the inside and outside of the product are uniformly heated and the outside has a crispy texture. When cooking fried-type frozen food, it is required to raise the internal temperature sufficiently to be edible, but cook it crisply so that the external surface is not dry or soggy. Therefore, after using a heat source that is easy for internal heating of the product and secondarily applying a heat source that can cook the external surface in a sequence to heat the product, not only uniform heating of the product but also the texture of the surface can be crispy. Therefore, it may be possible to improve the cooking quality. For example, when only microwaves, which are a single heat source, are used to cook frozen chicken, excessive cooking time is required to increase the internal temperature, and it may be difficult to implement a crispy surface texture of chicken. Accordingly, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe so that after heating for a predetermined time with microwaves in order to shorten the cooking time and effectively increase the internal product temperature, the recipe may be heated for a predetermined time by hot wire or convection for a crispy surface texture.

<Recipe correction according to cooking purpose>

The recipe providing apparatus according to an embodiment may be capable of correcting a recipe according to a cooking purpose, and may also be capable of correcting a recipe according to a combination of a set cooking purpose.

For example, if the purpose of cooking is that the internal temperature should be as uniform as possible, the minimum/maximum temperature should be above/below a specific temperature, if the average cooking temperature should be above a specific temperature and the cooking time should be short, the product surface should be well This may include a case in which the surface temperature must be less than a certain temperature because of burning, a case in which the internal temperature of the product must be within a certain range even if the surface temperature of the product is increased.

If the internal temperature of the product needs to be as uniform as possible, the C.V. The value may be calculated, and the cooking time range according to each combination may be limited according to the target temperature range of the heated product. At this time, C.V. is a value obtained by dividing the standard deviation by the average. The smaller the value, the smaller the deviation from the average temperature, so that the temperature distribution for each product location can be uniform.

When the minimum/highest temperature should be above/below a specific temperature, the recipe may be corrected by selecting a time period in which the lowest temperature is within the range based on the heating prediction result.

If the average cooking temperature should be above a certain temperature and the cooking time should be short, calculate the average cooking time for each hour for each individual combination of heating prediction results, and limit the time area in which the calculated average cooking temperature is included in the target range to create a recipe. can be corrected

If the surface temperature must be below a certain temperature because the product surface burns easily, limit the surface temperature according to the product characteristics, and in the temperature distribution for each location among the heating prediction results, near the surface (for example, near the surface according to the Temp of Point) Recipe correction can be performed by classifying the results of each heat source combination according to time, and calculating a time range for each heat source combination that meets the target temperature condition among the classified results.

Even if the surface temperature of the product is raised, if the internal temperature of the product must be within a certain range, the surface temperature is limited according to the product characteristics, and the result near the surface of the product (near the surface according to the Temp of Point) among the heating prediction results is calculated for each heat source. Recipe can be calibrated by calculating each combination over time, and calculating the range that matches the calculated result to the target temperature condition.

Combinations for each purpose may be combinable with logical operators (and, or, nor, xnor).

A table for the comprehensive heating prediction result for the recipe correction described above can be shown in Table 6.

<Recipe correction to improve cooking quality - texture and flavor, etc.>

According to an embodiment, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe in consideration of the texture or flavor of the food. The recipe providing device may change the recipe according to the user's selection (eg, selecting a crispy texture or selecting a moist texture), or depending on the type of product to be cooked (eg, steak prefers a juicy texture). can also be changed. For example, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe to heat using a microwave in the first half of cooking for a crispy texture, and heat using a hot wire or convection in the second half of cooking.

As another example, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe to heat using a microwave in the first half of cooking for a moist texture and heat using steam in the second half of cooking.

As another example, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe to heat the first half of cooking using a hot wire or convection to a high temperature for a juicy texture, and heat it using infrared or microwave in the second half of cooking.

<Recipe Calibration to Improve Cooking Quality - Temperature Control>

If the cooking time and temperature variation are minimized, the loss of flavor of the food due to heat can be minimized. The recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe to minimize the cooking time and temperature deviation by appropriately utilizing microwaves, infrared rays, grills, and convection. Specifically, a low-temperature section in which taste loss easily occurs and a high-temperature section in which taste loss does not occur relatively may be defined, and the critical temperature value may be defined as a first threshold value. Recipe correction according to the present invention cooks using the MW heat source and infrared heat source simultaneously or in sequence so that the internal product temperature of the food quickly reaches the first threshold to minimize taste loss, and cooks using the first threshold (taste loss does not occur easily) ), it can be cooked using a heat source with a relatively low rate of temperature rise, such as a grill or convection, so that the temperature deviation of the product is not severe. In the case of the first threshold, it may be variously determined depending on the type, shape, and composition of the food, but in general, it may be determined between 40 ℃ and 60 ℃, and a person skilled in the art can determine a reasonable first threshold for each food/product/composition. can be derived and converted into DB.

<Recipe correction to improve cooking quality - Flavor reaction induction>

By intentionally raising the cooking temperature by 20-30 degrees compared to the basic recipe, the recipe can be changed so that the flavor reaction of food such as caramelization reaction and Maillard reaction occurs. A person skilled in the art will be able to create a DB by deriving reasonable temperature rise conditions and cooking time so that the intended flavor reaction for each food/product/composition can occur.

<Recipe correction according to user feedback>

According to an embodiment, the recipe providing apparatus may change the recipe based on the user's feedback. For example, the recipe providing apparatus may maintain the current recipe change algorithm when positive feedback is received from the user. The recipe providing apparatus may modify the recipe change algorithm when negative feedback is received from the user. The recipe providing device may receive feedback through the cooking device. The cooking apparatus may provide a user interface for receiving feedback from a user. The user interface may be configured to receive comments associated with the cooking mode.

For example, when a crispy mode is selected while cooking a cooking target product, the cooking apparatus may output a user interface for requesting an increase or decrease in a crispy texture after cooking. As another example, when a soft mode is selected when cooking a cooking target product, a user interface for requesting an increase or decrease in a soft texture after cooking may be output. When feedback is received through the user interface, the recipe providing apparatus may modify the recipe change criteria. For example, when an increase in the crispy texture is requested by the user, the recipe providing apparatus may increase the cooking time or temperature by convection for the crispy texture. You can modify the recipe change algorithm. As another example, if feedback that the soft texture is insufficient is received from the user, the recipe providing apparatus may modify the recipe changing algorithm to increase the amount of steam. As another example, the recipe providing apparatus may allow the user to directly modify the recipe change algorithm (eg, modify the heating means, heating time, heating temperature, etc.).

According to an embodiment, the recipe providing apparatus may recommend a product to the user based on the recipe providing history. For example, the recipe providing apparatus may recommend a user's preferred product and a product related to the preferred product based on the recipe providing history.

Although not shown in FIG. 7 , when it is necessary to slowly heat the cooking target product 730 according to the characteristics of the cooking target product 730 , the cooking target product 730 is placed in the central region 720 with a slow heating rate. You can even guide them to let them go.

8 illustrates an exemplary method of guiding a heating position in a cooking apparatus according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 8 , the cooking apparatus according to an embodiment may include a turn table 800 therein. The heating rate of the central region 810 in the turntable 800 may be high according to the characteristics of the cooking apparatus. The cooking apparatus may guide the user to place the cooking target product 820 in the central region 810 having a high heating rate. The cooking apparatus may guide the central area 810 according to previously stored information, or may guide the central area 810 according to information received from the recipe providing apparatus. The cooking apparatus, for example, may operate a light to illuminate the central area 810, and may output voice guidance or text guidance. The user may position the cooking target product 820 in the central area 810 according to the guide of the cooking apparatus.

The cooking apparatus may guide the turntable central area 810 using lighting using an output device 550 (shown in FIG. 5), may provide voice guidance using a speaker, and provide text guidance or cooking using a display. A location where the target product 820 is to be placed may be displayed.

The calculation of the position of the cooking target product of the cooking apparatus shown in FIGS. 7 and 8 and the provision of a guide will be described in more detail as follows.

The recipe providing device includes information stored in the recipe providing device (eg, a server) (information about the cooking device and the cooking target product) and the cooking device and the cooking target product for which a user requests to provide a cooking guide (eg, a recipe). Based on the information on the combination of can provide

The recipe providing device calculates heating prediction by synthesizing physicochemical properties, shape and configuration according to the heating body (eg, the product to be cooked), the type of heat source, the shape of the cooking space inside the cooking device, and the output and control method of the cooking device. can be done

Position transformation for heating prediction may be classified as follows according to the characteristics of the cooking device.

When a turntable is present, the cooking target product may be arranged in units of a reference distance based on the distance from the rotation center of the turntable to the maximum radius of the turntable. For example, when the maximum radius of the turntable is 150 mm and the maximum radius of the cooking target product is 50 mm, the cooking target product may be positioned every 15 mm (a reference distance unit) from the center of the turntable. In more detail, the distance from the center of the turntable to the center of the cooking target product may be 0 mm. In this case, it is a case where the center of the product to be cooked is located at the rotation center of the turntable. In addition, the cooking target product may be positioned on the turntable such that the distance from the center of the turntable to the center of the cooking target product is 15mm, 30mm, 45mm, 60mm, 75mm, or 90mm. The reference unit distance may be varied in consideration of the reference distance unit recognizable by the user.

When the cooking target product (eg, the heating body) is not in an axially symmetrical shape (non-circular, various free shapes, etc.), the rotational degree of the cooking target product may be considered as a variable and positioned in units of 90 degrees.

When the cooking target product has an axially symmetrical shape, even if the cooking target product is arbitrarily rotated in a state where the distance from the rotation center of the turntable is set, since all the cooking target products have the same shape, one can be assumed. That is, when the cooking target product has a square shape, even if it rotates, it can be assumed that all products have the same shape. When the product to be cooked has a rectangular shape, it can be assumed that 90 degree rotation, 270 degree rotation, and 0 degree rotation and 180 degree rotation are the same shape. When the product to be cooked is in a free form, it may be assumed that there are four degrees of 0 degrees, 90 degrees, 180 degrees, and 270 degrees.

When predictive heating is performed, predictive heating results for one, two, and four rotation cases may all be generated according to the shape of the product to be cooked.

When a turntable or an auxiliary device for artificially moving the cooking target product does not exist, the positional distance of the cooking target product forward/rearward/left and right from the center of the cooking space of the cooking device may be determined as a preset reference distance (25 mm). For example, if the inside of the cooking space is 300mm*200mm and the size of the product to be cooked is 100mm*50mm, the center of the product to be cooked is (-100mm, -75mm), (-100, -50), (-100, - 25), (-100, 0), (-100, 25), (-100, 50), (-100, 75), (-75, -75), (-75, -50), (-75 , -25), (-75, 0), (-75, 25), (-75, 50), (-75, 75), (-50, -75) to (100, 0), (100, 25), (100, 50), and (100, 75). Therefore, when predictive heating is performed, if a turntable or an auxiliary device for moving the cooking target product does not exist in the cooking device, all items that place the cooking target product in the cooking space at reference intervals according to the internal volume of the cooking space and the size of the cooking target product It is possible to generate predictive heating results for any combination of positions.

When the cooking apparatus is provided with a height adjustment guide and a ferrite plate, predictive heating may be performed by adding a combination of a height increase to a combination of positions and rotations for the presence or absence of a turntable.

For example, if the cooking unit is an oven, if 3 cases are provided: a base height (eg floor) and a 50 mm height guide, a 100 mm height guide, add the 3 cases to the forward/left/rotate combination described above. Thus, it is possible to assume a position to proceed with the predictive heating, and proceed with the predictive heating.

When the cooking apparatus uses a microwave, it is possible to predict the intensity and distribution of an electromagnetic field for an empty cooking space of the cooking apparatus, thereby limiting the combination of positions of the cooking target product according to the cooking purpose. For example, in the case of a microwave-based cooking device, the electromagnetic field strength and distribution during idling are predicted for each distance from the middle hand while taking into account the radius of the product to be cooked. Predictive heating considering only the before/after turning radius around the strongest point can be performed. More specifically, when the diameter of the product to be cooked is 50 mm and the turntable diameter is 150 mm, the intensity and distribution of the electromagnetic field are predicted by dividing the turntable into 6 equal parts, and the 5th place among the 6 divided areas is the place where the strength of the electromagnetic field meets the cooking purpose If it is a zone, predictive heating can be performed only for the 4th, 5th, and 6th zones.

As described above, the heating prediction result at the calculated position may be implemented in Table 7 in the following table format. In this case, the form of the heating prediction result may have a formula other than a table, a regression formula, a three-dimensional array, various image formats, and the like.

The recipe providing apparatus may provide a recipe to the cooking apparatus by selecting a result value matching the cooking purpose from among the heating prediction result values at the calculated position.

Referring to FIG. 9 , it may be required to secure a sufficient cooking temperature according to the type of the product to be cooked. A preheating time may be required to secure a sufficient cooking temperature inside the cooking apparatus. The recipe providing apparatus may include the preheating step in the recipe when a preheating time is required due to the characteristics of the cooking target product and the characteristics of the cooking apparatus. For example, when a cooking temperature of 200°C is required, the cooking apparatus completes preheating to 200°C according to the recipe (T1), and then outputs a notification indicating the completion of preheating to induce the user to input the product to be cooked. can
