In operation 431, the processor 260 may replace the cooking appliance identified in the recipe information with a cooking appliance by using the cooking appliance information, and may include the replaced cooking appliance in the content information of the task. For example, the processor 260 cooks cooking utensils used in an induction or range including a pot, a fry pan/skillet, a bowl, and a sauce pan (saut?, sauce pan) as a cooking device. It can be replaced with 'induction or range (eg gas range)'. As another example, the processor 260 may replace a cooking utensil used in a microwave oven including a microwave-safe bowl with a cooking device 'microwave'. As another example, the processor 260 converts cooking utensils used in an oven including a roasting pan, a baking pan/dish, and a casserole dish into a cooking appliance 'oven'. can be substituted

In operation 432, the processor 260 may replace the temperature information identified in the recipe information with the level of the cooking device by using the specification information of the cooking device. For example, when the cooking appliance is induction, the processor 260 sets low heat to 1 to 3 levels (eg, 2 levels) of induction and medium heat to 4 levels of induction in the temperature information of the recipe information. to 6 levels (eg 5 levels), high heat to 7 to 9 levels of induction (eg 8 levels), medium low heat to 2 to 5 levels of induction (eg 3 or 4 levels) ), slowly boiling (simmer) can be replaced with 2 levels of induction, and medium high heat with 5 to 8 levels (eg 6 or 7 levels) of induction.

4C shows alternative device information according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 4C , according to an embodiment, the processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) determines whether the cooking appliance extracted from each recipe information is a device placed in the house based on the held device information, and determines whether the corresponding cooking appliance is When not disposed in the home, the cooking device according to each cooking process of the recipe information may be substituted (or replaced) with another cooking device disposed in the home based on the replacement device information. For example, the processor 260 replaces induction with a range or microwave, replaces a range with an induction, replaces an oven with an induction or microwave, or replaces a microwave with an induction based on the alternative device information as shown in FIG. 4C. Alternatively, it can be replaced with an oven.

Hereinafter, a method of arranging a plurality of tasks will be described with reference to FIGS. 5A to 5E.

5A illustrates a method of arranging a plurality of tasks in parallel according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 5A , a processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may list all of a plurality of tasks extracted from recipe information in parallel. For example, the processor 260 may extract first to seventh tasks (task 01 to task 07) from recipe information of a dish. Referring to FIG. 5A , the first task (task 01) may include temperature information '375F' and order information 'preheat' as content information. The second task (task 02) includes temperature information 'high heat', ingredient information 'rice and water', cookware information 'sauce pan', cooking time information '10 minutes' can include The third task (task 03) includes temperature information 'medium low heat' or 'simmer', ingredient information 'rice', cookware information 'sauce pan', Cooking time information '20 to 25 minutes' may be included. The fourth task (task 04) may include temperature information 'medium heat', ingredient information 'onion', cookware information 'pot', and cooking time information '5 minutes'. The fifth task (task 05) may include ingredient information 'sauce', cookware information 'skillet', and cooking time information '1 minute'. The sixth task (task 06) includes cooking device information 'preheated oven', temperature information '375F baking', material information 'green bell pepper 1/2 in rice + onion + sauce', cooking appliance information 'baking dish', cooking time May include the information '45 minutes'. The seventh task (task 07) may include temperature information '375F', ingredient information 'rice + onion + sauce in 1/2 green bell pepper', and cooking time information '20 to 25 minutes'.

5B illustrates a method of sequentially arranging tasks based on a cooking appliance according to an exemplary embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 5B , according to an embodiment, a processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may determine a cooking appliance capable of processing a plurality of tasks in units of cooking zones. For example, the processor 260 may determine the number of cookers of the cooking appliance from specification information of the cooking appliance, and allocate a plurality of tasks to each cooker of the cooking appliance. For example, the processor 260 may confirm that an oven has 2 burners and an induction cooker has 3 burners, based on the held device information.

According to an embodiment, the processor 260 may infer cooking device information based on other content information for a task in which content information does not include cooking device information among a plurality of tasks. For example, the processor 260 may determine a cooking appliance that processes the first task (task01) and the second task (task02) as an oven based on the temperature information '375F'. For another example, if the content information of the task includes only cooking appliance information without cooking appliance information, the processor 260 may use the cooking appliance information to perform the second task (task02), the third task (task03), and the fourth task. A cooking appliance that processes (task04) and the fifth task (task05) may be determined to be induction. As another example, the processor 260 may determine time information (eg, duration information) of the first task task01 by using specification information of the cooking appliance. Since the first task is an oven preheating process, the time information of the first task (task01) may be determined based on the time required for the domestic oven to be preheated to a temperature of 375F.

According to an embodiment, the processor 260 may allocate each task to a cooking area of a cooking appliance that can process each task so as not to exceed the number of cooking areas of each cooking appliance. If the oven has 2 burners and the induction cooker has 3 burners, the processor 260 may arrange 5 of the total 7 tasks in parallel and arrange the remaining 2 after the 5 tasks. For example, in operation 521, the processor 260 determines that the sixth task (task06) is a task to be performed after the first task (task01) from the temperature information 'preheated oven', and executes the sixth task (task06). It can be placed after the first task (task01). For another example, in operation 522, the processor 260 determines that the second task (task02), the third task (task03), the fourth task (task04), and the fifth task (task05) use the same cooking appliance. One of, for example, one of the second task (task02), the third task (task03), and the fourth task (task04) to be processed before the fifth task (task05), which is extracted last and is likely to be processed later. For example, It can be placed after the fourth task (task04) using the same cooking utensils.

5C illustrates a method of sequentially arranging tasks based on cooking ingredients according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 5C , according to an embodiment, a processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may sequentially list tasks having the same material. For example, in operation 531, the processor 260 assigns a fifth task (task05) extracted later from among the second task (task02) and the fifth task (task05) having the same cooking material as 'rice' to the first task (task01). ) can be placed after. For another example, in operation 532, the processor 260 selects the second extracted later among the sixth task (task06) and the seventh task (task07) in which the ingredients are ''rice + onion + sauce in 1/2 of green bell pepper''. The 7th task (task07) can be placed after the 6th task (task06).

5D illustrates a method of sequentially arranging tasks according to a specified condition according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 5D , according to an embodiment, the processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may reduce the number of parallel tasks performed at one point in time when a specified condition is satisfied. The specified condition may be, for example, that expected end times of a plurality of tasks before and after reducing the number of parallel tasks are the same. For example, in operation 541 of FIG. 5C , the first task (task01), the second task (task02), the fourth task (task04), and the fifth task (task05) are arranged in parallel, and the second task (task02) A third task (task03) may be arranged behind the. When the end times of the first task (task01), the second task (task02), and the third task (task03) are earlier than or equal to the end times of the fourth task (task04) and the fifth task (task05), respectively, The processor 260 may arrange the fifth task task05 after the fourth task task04.

5E shows time/sequence information according to recipe information according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 5E , the processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may check the order of the plurality of tasks further based on at least one of time information and order information. For example, the processor 260 may determine that the first task (task01) including the temperature information 'preheating' is ahead of the second task (task02) including the preheated oven (see 421 of FIG. 5B). . For another example, the processor 260 may determine the order of tasks based on information before or after the time information 'when'. As another example, the processor 260 may determine previous information 'after repeating' as the previous task, and determine subsequent information as the next task. As another example, the processor 260 may check (or determine) the order of tasks based on information indicating an order before and after 'bake' (eg, bake after preheating).

5A to 5E, when the processing order of the plurality of tasks is determined, the processor 260 determines the start time and end time of the plurality of tasks according to the cooking end time, and sets the plurality of tasks to correspond to the determined start time and end time. You can determine the timeline of tasks.

6A illustrates a method of inserting or replacing a task according to a cooking end time according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 6A , a first cooking process including first to third tasks (task03) and a second cooking process including fourth to sixth tasks (task06) may be arranged in parallel. The end time of the first cooking process may precede the end time of the second cooking process. The first cooking process and the second cooking process may be, for example, cooking processes for different dishes.

In operation 611, when the end time input through the input device (eg, 210 in FIG. 2 ) corresponds to the end time of the second cooking process, the processor (eg, 260 in FIG. 2 ) performs a task after the third task (task03). A seventh task (task07) may be added to align the end time of the first cooking process with the end time of the second cooking process and the end time of the first cooking process. The seventh task (task07) is a task for keeping cooked food warm, and may include, for example, a pause task in the case of induction and a keep warm task in the case of an oven.

In operation 612, if the end time input through the input device 210 lags behind the end times of the first cooking process and the second cooking process, the processor 260 executes a seventh task task07 after the third task task03. ) is added, and the 8th task (task08) is added after the 6th task (task06) so that the end times of the first and second cooking processes may be matched to the input end time of the second cooking process.

In operation 613, if the end time input through the input device 210 corresponds to the end time of the first cooking process and precedes the end time of the second cooking process, the processor 260 executes the sixth task task06. As the seventh task (task07) having a shorter cooking time than the 6 task (task06) is replaced, the end times of the first and second cooking processes may be matched to the third cooking end time. For example, the processor 260 may re-search recipe information having a relatively short cooking time from the memory 250 and extract a seventh task task07 based on the re-searched recipe information.

6B illustrates a method for adjusting intervals between a plurality of tasks according to an exemplary embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 6B , a processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may add a designated break time before or after each task between one task and another task. For example, in operation 621, the processor 260 may add a break time (eg, N seconds) between one task and the other task when a preparation time is required to start another task after completion of one task. . For another example, in operation 622, the processor 260 may add a break time before the start of the task when a preparation time is required before the start of the task.

7 shows a timeline bar according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 7 , the timeline bar may include, for example, a UI screen including timeline bars for each cooker of each cooking device. The timeline bar includes the processing target 710 of each task, the execution time of each task 721 and 725, the input of each task (eg cooking ingredients) 730, and the cooking device settings 741 and 645 according to each task. At least one of the cooking end time 750 may be included. The processing target 710 of each task may include, for example, the name of each cooking appliance and information capable of distinguishing the cooker of each cooking appliance. The information capable of identifying the crater may include, for example, at least one of a picture indicating a location of the crater, a crater number, or a crater name. The execution times 721 and 725 of each task may include, for example, a start time 721 and a duration (eg, 725) of each task. The cooking device settings 741 and 745 according to each task may include at least one of level information (eg, level) 741 of the cooking device and mode information 745 of the cooking device. The cooking end time 750 may be, for example, a time set through an input device (eg, 210 of FIG. 2 ) or a time determined according to execution times of a plurality of tasks.

8 illustrates UI screens of timeline information according to an embodiment. In the case of FIG. 8 , an example of a case where cooking devices used for at least one dish are an induction cooker and an oven, the induction cooker and the oven have one cooker, or only one cooker of the induction cooker and the oven are used. 8 shows an example in which cooking ingredients are omitted on the timeline bar for convenience of explanation.

In operation 811, the processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may display a timeline bar (timeline information) representing a timeline of a plurality of tasks on a display (eg, 240 of FIG. 2 ). The timeline bar may include a first timeline bar for tasks assigned to induction and a second timeline bar for tasks assigned to an oven. The first tine line bar is, for example, a second task (t72) set to level 8 of induction and driven for about 8 minutes, and a third task (t73) set to level 5 and driven for 1 hour and 50 minutes (t73) can include The second timeline bar may include, for example, a first task t71 of preheating the oven at 400 degrees for about 50 minutes and a fourth task t74 of baking at a temperature of 400 degrees for 1 hour and 40 minutes. .

In operation 812, the processor 260 may display a timeline bar on the display 240 so that tasks that have been completed, tasks to be performed next, and tasks to be executed thereafter can be distinguished. For example, the processor 260 displays completed tasks in a first color (eg, black), displays a starting point of a task to be performed next in a second color (eg, red), and displays tasks to be executed thereafter in a second color (eg, red). A timeline bar displayed in a third color (eg, gray) may be output to the display 240 .

In operation 813, the processor 260 may reflect the changed information to the timeline bar when a change occurs in at least a part (eg, setting of a cooking appliance) of content information of the cooking task among a plurality of tasks. For example, the processor 260 may confirm that the induction level is changed from 8 to 2 while performing the second task task02. The processor 260 may receive information about the level change of the induction from the induction using the communication circuit 220 .

In operation 814, the processor 260 increases the execution time of the fourth task (task04) when the end time of the first cooking process using induction becomes longer according to the induction setting change, so that the first cooking process and the second cooking process are End time can be met.

According to the above-described embodiment, when the setting of the cooking appliance is changed during cooking, a plurality of cooking processes may be simultaneously completed by changing and setting a timeline or task according to the change in the setting of the cooking appliance.

9 illustrates a method of changing cooking appliance settings when a cooking end time is extended during cooking according to an embodiment. In FIG. 9 , an oven is a single column, and task 4 is a task that follows task 1, but a timeline bar in which task 1 and task 4 are separated is illustrated as an example.

In operation 910, the processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may check that the cooking end time has been advanced by 8 minutes from 18:58 to 18:50 through the input device 210 while cooking, for example, while task 1 is being performed.

In operation 920, the processor 260 may change the setting of the cooking appliance to shorten the cooking time when the cooking end time is advanced. For example, the processor 260 may advance the completion time of task 1 by 8 minutes and advance the start time of task 4 by 8 minutes by changing the setting value of the cooking appliance of task 1 to the intensive mode.

In operation 920, the processor 260 may adjust the processing order of tasks so that tasks starting at one point in time do not overlap. For example, in operation 910, since the start time of task 4 may be delayed as the user simultaneously completes task 1 and task 2 (eg, turning off the cooking appliance), the processor 260, in operation 920, The completion time of task 2 can be advanced by increasing the intensity of induction cooker 1 so that the completion of task 2 does not affect the start of task 4.

10 illustrates a method of changing a task when a cooking end time is set during cooking according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 10 , in a timeline bar for parallel cooking of a plurality of dishes (cooking 1 to cooking 3) in screen 1010, end times of the plurality of dishes may be different from each other.

In screen 1020, the processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may check through the input device 210 that the cooking end time for a plurality of dishes cooked in parallel is set to 19:35.

In screen 1030, if the cooking end time of 19:35 is set, the processor 260 may change at least one task to match the end times of a plurality of dishes. For example, the processor 260 may change at least part of the contents of the last task of at least one dish (eg, setting of a cooking appliance) that is completed prior to a set cooking end time among dishes 1 to 3. For another example, the processor 260 may add a task for keeping warm after the last task of the at least one dish.

11 is a flowchart of a recipe information filtering method according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 11 , in operation 1110, the processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may check whether a dish name is input through the input device 210 . The dish name may be, for example, the name of a dish to be cooked.

In operation 1120, the processor 260 may determine whether there is a setting for at least one of allergy ingredient/food information or user's propensity information. The allergy component information or allergy food information may be, for example, information on ingredients or foods that may cause allergies when a user consumes them. The user's disposition information may include, for example, vegetarianism or gluten sensitivity.

If there is a setting for at least one of allergy ingredient/food information or user's propensity information, in operation 1030, the processor 260 may filter and select recipe information based on the at least one setting in addition to the dish name. For example, when there is set allergy ingredient or food information, the processor 260 may select recipe information excluding recipe information included in the set allergy ingredient or food from recipe information corresponding to a dish name. For another example, when the user's inclination is vegetarian, the processor 260 may select recipe information composed of vegetarian food from among recipe information corresponding to a dish name.

If there is no setting for at least one of allergy ingredient/food information or user's propensity information, in operation 1040, the processor 260 may select one of the recipe information corresponding to the dish name. For example, the processor 260 may select one recipe information with a high frequency of use from among recipe information corresponding to a dish name. For another example, the processor 260 may select recipe information suitable for a set cooking end time from among recipe information corresponding to a dish name.

12 is a flowchart of a smart cooking preparation method before cooking according to an embodiment.

Referring to FIG. 12 , in operation 1210, a processor (eg, 260 of FIG. 2 ) may detect a task for a cooking process from recipe information. The task may include, for example, a task of using a cooking appliance in a cooking process. For example, if at least two pieces of designated information are included in concatenated sentences of recipe information, for example, one sentence or one paragraph, the processor 260 may detect it as one task. The processor 260 may determine content information of the detected task using designated information.

In operation 1220, the processor 260 may check whether content information of the plurality of tasks is sufficient to perform the plurality of tasks using the cooking appliance. For example, the processor 260 may determine that the content information of the corresponding task is sufficient if it is possible to check the cooking device, setting of the cooking device, cooking time, cooking material, and cooking temperature from the content information of each task.

In operation 1230, if content information of the plurality of tasks is sufficient to perform the plurality of tasks using the cooking appliance, the processor 260 may configure a timeline for the plurality of tasks.

In operation 1240, the processor 260 may check whether a cooking end time is newly input. For example, the processor 260 may check whether a cooking end time different from the cooking end time of the configured timeline is input through the input device 210 . According to various embodiments, the processor 260 checks, in operation 1240, whether other settings, such as a time interval between tasks, are changed through the input device 210, and if the other settings are changed, further considers the changed other settings. The timeline can be reconstructed.

In operation 1250, if the cooking end time is not newly input, the processor 260 may transmit setting value information of the cooking device to the cooking device.

In operation 1220, if it is confirmed that the content information of the plurality of tasks is insufficient, the processor 260 may supplement the content information of the task using other information. For example, the processor 260 may change a cooking appliance not owned in the home among cooking appliances included in a plurality of tasks based on the owned device information to another cooking appliance owned in the home. For another example, if the cooking time or cooking equipment is not included in each cooking process of the recipe information, the processor 260 may infer from ingredient, recipe, or other recipe information and include it in the content information of each task.

In operation 1340, the processor 260 may determine whether the changed processing time of one task affects the processing time (eg, start time) of another task.

In operation 1350, if the changed processing time of one task affects the processing time (eg, start time) of another task, the processor 260 may reconfigure the timeline. For example, the processor 260 may reconstruct the timeline by reflecting the changed processing time of one task and another task. The reconstructed timeline may have a different cooking end time from the previous timeline. In operation 1350, when the cooking end time is set to be fixed, the processor 260 advances the increased cooking end time by reducing the cooking time of one subsequent task, or ends the reduced cooking end by adding another task after one task. You can slow down time.

At operation 1360, the processor 260 may output the reconstructed timeline to a display.
