充电装置、加热式非燃烧系统、充电方法及充电控制系统和计算机可读存储介质 技术领域
本公开涉及一种用于电子烟具设备的充电装置、尤其是充电烟盒，还涉及包括可充电电源的烟具设备和所述充电装置尤其是充电烟盒的加热式非燃烧系统、以及用充电烟盒为烟具设备充电的方法。本公开还涉及一种烟具设备充电控制系统和一种计算机可读存储介质。
背景技术
随着现代社会中人对身体健康的关注度上升，人们逐渐意识到了通过将发烟制品燃烧以供用户吸食这一传统抽烟方式对身体的危害，因此产生了加热式非燃烧烟具设备。现有的加热式非燃烧烟具设备可通过例如插入式电加热的烘烤方式来加热发烟制品以产生烟雾来供用户吸食。
这种电子烟一般包括两个部分：烟具设备(又称烟杆)和充电烟盒。充电烟盒用于对烟具设备进行充电。
已知在现有的加热式非燃烧系统中，一般由烟杆电子电路控制烟盒主电源为烟杆次电源充电。为此，烟杆电子电路布置成例如保存相关信息如用户所进行的抽吸次数、抽吸之间的时间量以及已经给加热元件通电的时间量并且进行相应计算，以适时发送信号通知用户须将烟杆送回到烟盒充电。为此，一方面，例如可能需要在烟杆中设置附加器件如抽吸传感器以获取相关信息，还需要专门设置以进行相应计算。例如在烟杆中增加专门的电源管理器件。这不仅挤占烟杆中本来狭小的内部空间，而且也使其电子电路设计复杂化，从而不利于烟杆在重量方面的轻质化。在当前竞争日益激烈的电子烟市场上，这显然是不利的。再者，在产品同质化的市场现状下，也需要寻找吸引用户的新的竞争点，例如在烟杆外观方面。

下面将结合附图详细说明本公开的特定实施例。
参见图1，本公开涉及一种加热式非燃烧系统，其包括如下两个部分：烟具设备和充电烟盒3。其中，烟具设备特别是一种加热式非燃烧烟具设备，这里尤其涉及电加热式非燃烧烟杆，出于简便起见，下面将采用以附图标记4表示的术语“烟杆”进行相关描述，这种烟杆呈大致传统香烟尺寸大小；充电烟盒用于对烟具设备进行充电。充电烟盒的盖体1(参见图2)打开后，烟杆4可放入充电烟盒内或者从充电烟盒取出。
图1中简单示出一种加热式非燃烧系统实施例的内部，其中相关元件不是按比例绘制并且出于图示简单清楚的原因，省去了与本公开方案不相关的元器件。如图2中可看到的烟盒盖体1和可能的用于存储发烟制品的腔体21在图1中均未示出。
从图1中可看到根据本公开一实施例的加热式非燃烧系统的充电烟盒3的主要结构。烟盒3包括主体2。所述主体2包括：控制器单元23、接口24、电源25；控制器单元23与接口24、电源25电连接；这里的电连接是指能够进行数据信号或者电力传输。
接口24可用于外部有线连接，例如利用电缆给烟盒电源25充电。接口24也可用于外部无线如蓝牙连接。无论有线还是无线连接，该接口需要时也可用于与外部计算机或手 机连接用以单向或双向交互数据，例如从外部下载更新软件、向外传输有关烟盒和/或电杆的相关信息。
烟盒电源25例如可以是可充电的电池，例如锂离子电池、磷酸锂铁电池、锂锰电池、镍镉电池或镍金属氢化物电池。烟盒电源的功率容量优选地是3-6瓦特。烟盒电池25配置成容纳足够充电量以能对烟杆电池再充电多次才需对自身进行充电。
所述主体2中设置有以标号22表示的腔室，用以接纳插入其中的烟杆，在靠近腔室22的底部设置有接触结构28，接触结构28电连接到控制器单元23，用以与插入其中的烟杆4通过烟杆的相应的接触结构27进行通信接触和充电接触。这里图1中仅示出一对接触结构28和相应的一对接触结构27，但这并非限制性的。其数量可以根据实际需要设置，例如可以设置四个或五个接触结构28和相对应的四个或五个接触结构27。接触结构可以为圆形触点或者弹性片，当然合适的其它形式也是可考虑的。出于简单考虑，后面以术语“触点”来指代所述接触结构，而这显然并非限制性的。
需要时，主体2上还可以包括按键26，该按键26也与控制器单元23电连接，用于向控制器单元23输入控制信号，实现对充电烟盒的控制。
另外可以考虑在烟盒主体上设置一个或多个指示器，用以根据需要指示烟盒电池中余下的电量、和/或指示烟杆的充电状态如例如已充满电。
另外从图1中可看到已插入到腔室22中的一个烟杆4，该烟杆4主要包括：发热器件45、控制器单元43、为可充电电池的电源44、如上所述的一对接触结构如电触点27。该对接触结构27、发热器件45和电池44连接到控制器单元43。发热器件45设置在烟杆的用于接纳发烟制品的腔体底部，当插入有发烟制品时发热器件与发烟制品接触，以在开启烟杆而从电池44向发热器件45供电时加热发烟制品到足以产生气雾的操作温度。
充电烟盒的触点28和烟杆的触点27配置成使得烟杆4插入到腔室22中时，烟杆4通过其触点27与烟盒触点28相应接触。可以考虑设置例如通过磁性、真空式的吸合装置、或通过烟盒顶盖以确保对应触点27、28的适当接触。但这并非本公开的目的所在，因而不予以详述。
发热器件45又称加热器，可以采用任何适当形式，例如图示的发热片。其也可呈加热时穿过发烟制品中心的加热针或棒的形式。可替代地，发热器件可采用具有不同导电部分的壳体或基板或电阻金属板的形式。可替换地，发热器件可以是圆盘加热器或圆盘加热器与加热针或棒的组合，也可以包括加热线或丝，例如Ni-Cr(镍-铬)、铂、金、银、钨或合金线或加热板。可选而非必要地，加热器元件可以沉积在刚性载体材料中或上。另外可 以根据需要设置一个或更多个发热器件，发热器件可被适当地布置以便最有效地加热发烟制品。下文中作为示例说明和简单起见，采用术语“发热器件”。
可充电电池44例如为可充电锂离子电池，或者镍金属氢化物电池、镍镉电池或锂基电池，其功率容量优选在1瓦特至3瓦特之间。
烟杆电池44需给发热器件45提供足够电能，以将形成气雾的基体升高至操作温度，并且在发烟模式期间将发烟制品的形成气雾的基体保持在操作温度持续一预定的时间段(例如5分钟-20分钟之间，优选至少6分钟)或者持续进行预定次数的抽吸如5-20次抽吸。
为此，在充电模式下所述烟杆电池44由烟盒电池25充电，以使烟杆电池具有足够电量来在发烟模式中将气雾形成基体的温度维持在基本操作温度，因为如果没有达到最佳温度，则会减少在烟杆操作期间产生的气雾的量并降低其品质，导致不令人满意的用户体验。例如，相比于将基体加热到最佳温度，当发热器件将气雾形成基体加热到较低的温度时可以产生不同比例的挥发性元素，这可以改变气雾的香味。为了传递更佳且一致的用户体验，烟杆4优选可以在其电池处于完全充好电的状态时操作，以能够将气雾形成基体加热到最佳温度。
当烟杆4插入烟盒腔室22中时，发烟制品可以保持在烟杆腔体中，也可以从其中取出。
如上所述的烟盒和烟杆的控制器单元23、43可设置用以接收相关信息并变换所接收的信息以生成输出。所述控制器单元可包括任意类型的计算装置、计算机、计算电路或者任意类型的处理器或能够执行存储在存储器中的一系列指令的处理电路。该控制器单元可包括多个处理器和/或多核中央处理单元(CPU)并且可包括任意类型的处理器，诸如微处理器、数字信号处理器、微控制器等。该控制器单元还可包括存储器以存储数据和/或算法以执行一系列指令。
而术语“存储器”可包括提供(例如，存储和/或传送)以由诸如处理器、计算机或数字处理设备的机器可读格式的信息的机构。例如，存储器可包括只读存储器(ROM)、随机存取存储器(RAM)、磁盘存储介质、光学存储介质、闪存设备或任意其他易失性或非易失性存储设备。包含在其上的代码或指令可由载波信号、红外信号、数字信号和其他相似的信号表示。
在下文中，将在控制器单元23、43包括微控制器(MCU)的情况下使用术语“微控制器”进行示例性说明。但提醒的是，这并非限制性的。
另外如图2所示，在一些实施方式中，主体2除用于接纳烟杆的腔室22外还可以包 括用于存放发烟制品的腔体21；腔体21和腔室22沿主体2横向排列。
如前面提到过的，已知在现有加热式非燃烧系统中，一般由烟杆电子电路、这里由其微控制器43控制烟盒电源这里是电池25为烟杆电源这里是可充电电池44充电，从而导致烟杆内部空间狭小，布置内部各元器件的可用空间狭窄，也不利于烟杆外观设计，其显得比较单一。
相对于此，本公开提出将给烟杆电池充电的相关电源电路都设置在充电烟盒中，也就是说由充电烟盒的电子电路、而非烟杆电子电路来控制给烟杆电池充电，从而使得烟杆内部布置和外观设计会更加灵活多样。
在现有技术中，由于烟杆电子电路控制由烟盒给烟杆电池的充电，因而烟杆插入烟盒中的专用腔室中时即开始或通过按压开始烟盒给烟杆电池充电。
与之相反地，根据本公开，当烟杆插入烟盒腔室中时并不会自动地或通过按压即刻开始这种充电，因为充电烟盒首先需要侦测插入其腔室22中的烟杆4的电池电量，根据检测结果决定是否为烟杆充电。这种电量侦测也无需在烟盒中设置专门的电源管理芯片，而是可由烟盒微控制器(以下简称烟盒MCU)来实现。
下面参照图3-4来详细说明本公开提出的一种示例性方案，在该示例中，烟杆和烟盒各相应具有五个圆形触点：VDD、SDA、SCL、RESET、GND；其中：VDD为电源触点、GND为接地触点、SDA为数据触点，SCL为通讯时钟触点，RESET为复位触点(如图4示意性表示的)。这里通过前述五个触点实现烟杆和烟盒之间的充电传输和数据通信。
图3中简单地示出了根据本公开提出的技术方案的如下几个主要步骤：
-步骤100：将烟杆插入烟盒中，使得烟杆触点和烟盒相应触点相接触，从而烟杆的电源触点接入烟盒MCU中；
-步骤200：烟盒MCU检测烟杆电池电量；根据电量检测结果，烟盒MCU控制是否开启由其电池为烟杆电池充电：
步骤300：如果烟杆电池满电，则烟盒MCU控制不开启为其充电；
反之烟盒MCU控制烟盒电池为烟杆电池充电，这包括如下步骤：
步骤400：烟盒MCU向烟杆发送将要为烟杆电池充电的指令；
步骤500：烟杆MCU接收到烟盒要为其充电的指令后进行相关充电准备，继而反馈给烟盒MCU；
步骤600：烟盒MCU接收到烟杆MCU的上述反馈信息后就开启对烟杆充电。
现在进一步参照图4来进行详细说明。
图4中清楚地示出了充电烟盒的如下几个主要内部器件：烟盒电池、烟盒MCU、充电电源管理电路。图4中也同样示出了与充电烟盒交互作用的烟杆的如下两个器件：电杆电池与烟杆MCU。从该图中可看到烟盒与烟杆通过前述VDD、SDA、SCL、RESET、GND五个触点相连通。
如图所示，在烟盒内部，烟盒的充电电源管理电路与烟盒电池之间各自的接地端GND相连(即烟盒电池负极与该充电电源管理电路的相应接地引脚相连)；烟盒电池正极连接到充电电源管理电路电源端为充电电源管理电路供电，如它们之间的VDD线所示。当烟杆插入并且烟盒微控制器控制开启进行烟杆电池充电时，电能则从烟盒电池经由VDD线到电源管理电路、再经VDD触点、继而经该触点与烟杆电池之间的VDD线供给到烟杆电池正极，由此实现对烟杆电池的充电。充电电源管理电路的作用是管理给烟杆电池充电的过程，也就是控制电压电流输出的过程：首先是恒流，然后是恒压。充电电源管理电路可在充电过程中基于烟盒MCU的控制例如通过控制电压输出、电流或这两者来控制烟盒电池向烟杆的供电量。
从图4中还可看到，烟盒MCU和烟杆MCU在其各自对应的引脚处通过烟盒与烟杆的相应SDA、SCL、RESET、GND触点借助SDA线、SCL线、RESET线和GND线相连通。另外，烟杆电池的负极(即图4中所示的烟杆电池左侧GND所示)、烟杆MCU的GND引脚通过GND触点与烟盒MCU的GND引脚进行接地连接。而烟杆MCU的VDD引脚表示其连接到烟杆电池正极以由烟杆电池给该微控制器供电。
与现有技术不同的是，根据本公开，烟盒MCU还配置成可检测插入烟盒专门腔室22中的烟杆4的电池44的电量。具体地，将烟盒MCU的一个引脚、这里是烟盒MCU左侧最上端的引脚配置成为MCU检测脚，该MCU检测脚通过第一分压电阻R7连接到VDD触点与充电电源管理电路之间的导线上，另外第一分压电阻R7经过与MCU检测脚的接点后还与第二分压电阻R8相串联。如图所示，清楚的是，第一分压电阻R7的一端通过VDD触点连接到烟杆电池的正极，而其另一端通过第二分压电阻R8接地，第一分压电阻R7的另一端还连接至烟盒MCU的MCU检测脚。这里第一和第二分压电阻R7、R8设置用于为MCU检测脚检测烟杆电池电量提供分压信号。另外，图4中示出第一和第二分压电阻R7和R8的阻值是10K。实际上，第一和第二分压电阻R7和R8的阻值可以是相同的，也可以不同。一般它们的阻值根据具体应用情况选择为10K以上，以便降低静态功耗。
另外如图4所示，烟盒MCU还与充电电源管理电路相连，以控制电源电路输出。
下面将进一步说明烟盒MCU控制为烟杆电池充电的过程。
如前所述，当烟杆4插入烟盒腔室22内时，相应前述五个触点相接合，经VDD触点产生的电信号传递给烟盒微控制器，从而开启由MCU检测脚对烟杆电池44的电量进行检测。
而关于MCU检测脚，这里需要指出的是：
-已知烟杆电池电量与烟杆电池电压成正比例关系。例如：烟杆电池为3.3V以上时，可以确定烟杆的电池电量大于80％，已知的是烟杆电池电压大约为4.2伏；
-MCU检测脚的电压会跟随电池电压的变化而线性变化，其关系式如下：
MCU检测脚的电压＝烟杆电池电压x(R8/R7+R8)1)
其中R7、R8分别表示第一和第二分压电阻R7、R8各自的阻值，而其阻值通常是已知的；
-烟盒MCU可以通过内置或外置的A/D转换器直接检测MCU检测脚的电压；
-由此根据检测到的MCU检测脚电压，则可以推断出烟杆电池是否需要充电；
-烟盒与烟杆之间的通信过程由SDA、SCL这两个触点进行。
更具体地，当烟杆插入烟盒时，烟杆MCU通过其相应引脚利用SDA、SCL线经由SDA、SCL触点向烟盒MCU发送插入了烟杆的数据，从而启动利用烟盒MCU的MCU检测脚对烟杆电池电量的检测。
确切地，烟盒MCU通过内置或外置的A/D转换器直接检测出MCU检测脚处输入的电压，然后通过上述关系式1)计算得出烟杆电池电压，继而根据查表法查询事先存储在烟盒MCU中的表(烟杆的电池电量与烟杆电池电压之间成正比例关系)而获得烟杆电池电量。
于是烟盒MCU根据所获得的烟杆电池电量结果来进行相关控制：如果烟杆电池满电则控制不开启烟盒的电源电路为烟杆电池充电；反之，则烟盒MCU向烟杆MCU发出将为其充电的指令，烟杆MCU于是通过其相应引脚利用SDA、SCL线经由SDA、SCL触点从烟盒MCU接收该指令以便其控制进行充电前准备工作。所谓烟杆相关的充电前准备工作是指：烟杆MCU控制停止烟杆电池给发热器件供电加热，而且也不再响应其它动作，比如使用者通过按键发送的相关指令如选择和/或改变发烟模式等。这是因为考虑到如果再充电时烟杆仍在工作的话，会损害缩短烟杆的使用寿命。这里要指出的是，所谓“满电”并非意指烟杆电池电量必然100％，实际上，当烟杆电池电 量例如达到80％-100％之间时，则可认为烟杆电池满电。事实上可以根据具体情况设定对应满电的适合的预设值。
烟杆MCU继而经由SDA、SCL触点向烟盒MCU传输其已准备妥当可以进行充电的反馈信息，于是烟盒MCU控制作为电源电路的烟盒电池给烟杆电池输出充电，如图4中的烟盒电池到电源管理电路、VDD触点、再到烟盒电池的VDD线路所示的。显然这里，SDA和SCL都是双向线路。
而在上述过程中，RESET触点保持高电平。当其变为低电平时，烟杆MCU会复位。
如上所述可清楚的是，A/D转换器直接测量MCU检测脚处的电压，而通过上述公式1)计算得出烟杆电池电压、继而查表获得烟杆电池电量，这都是在烟盒MCU内部实现的。并且在得到烟杆电池电量以后，烟盒MCU决定是否开启对烟杆电池充电。
根据本公开的这种控制方式显然不同于现有技术中由烟杆电子电路控制烟盒电池为电杆电池充电的方式。
这里需要指出的是，尽管以上实施方式是基于烟杆和烟盒上对应五个圆形触点的情况进行说明的，但本公开并不局限于此。事实上，烟杆和烟盒上各自具有至少两个触点即可：在单对触点的情况下，可采用频分复用或时分复用的方式由一个触点用于电力传输和数据通讯传输，而另一触点接地；另外，四个触点也是可以的，其中两个用于充电，两个用于数据通讯。换言之，可以根据实际情况设置适合的触点数量及其形状。这里仅作为例子给出，并不是限制性的。
可替换地，也可以配置成烟盒上的接触结构呈弹性元件如弹性按钮的形式。当烟杆4被推压插入专用腔室22而通过所述弹性元件触发其与烟盒主体内的控制器单元连通，从而由该控制器单元执行检测其电量、继而控制烟盒内置电池对烟杆充电。
另外，烟盒MCU还可以配置成在充电模式中对充电电流进行侦测，以在烟杆电池充满电后控制停止继续给烟杆充电。例如，烟盒MCU也可以配置成在充电过程中例如通过电流采样电阻来检测充电电流，当检测到的充电电流小于预设电流阈值时则判定烟杆充满电。或者可以通过前述MCU检测脚获得烟杆电池的电压，并将其与预设的电压阈值相比较，若烟杆电压超过该预设电压阈值时，则确定烟杆已被充满电了。在判定烟杆满电后，烟盒MCU控制停止继续给烟杆充电，使得烟盒电源电路进入超低待机模式而停止生成充电电流，使电子烟盒的待机电流小于10微安，从而显著降 低充电烟盒的待机功耗，减少对烟盒本身的充电次数，而可延长烟盒本身的内置电池的使用寿命，提升用户体验。由此，也无需一充满电就要求使用者将充满电的电杆从烟盒取出。换言之，这种设置也可实现对烟盒电池和烟杆电池两者的保护。
在烟盒电池本身也是可充电电池的情况下，利用如上所述类似的设计，烟盒MCU配置成也能检测烟盒电池本身的电量，例如通过专门检测脚检测烟盒电池的电压信号，根据查表法计算出电池电量，以便确定和控制对烟盒电池的充电，和/或以便通过例如前述指示器指示烟盒电池本身的电量信息。
另外，烟盒MCU与充电电源管理电路通信，以在充电过程中通过控制电压、电流或这二者来控制供应给烟杆的电量。
烟盒MCU和烟杆MCU例如均是可编程的。
从上述公开可清楚看出，利用本公开提供的方案，可以实现由电子烟盒微控制器实现对烟杆电池充电的控制，从而释出烟杆内部更多自由空间，有利于增加其内部和外部设计的灵活多样性。另外这种控制方式也有利于对烟盒、烟杆本身电池的保护，延长其使用寿命。
本公开可以包括在此隐含或明确公开的任何特征或特征组合或其概括，不局限于上述罗列的任何限定的范围。在此所述的有关任何元件、特征和/或结构布置可以以任何适合的方式组合。
以上公开的特定实施例仅是示例性的，对于受益于本文的教导的本领域技术人员来说显然的是，可以以不同但等同的方式修改和实施本公开。例如，可以按不同的顺序执行上述方法步骤。此外，除了以下权利要求中所述的之外，并不限制本文示出的构造或设计的细节。因此显然的是，可对以上公开的具体实施例进行改变和修改，并且所有这些变型都被认为是落入本公开的范围和精神之内。因此，本文寻求的保护在所附的权利要求中列出。
