请参阅图1,图1是本发明电子雾化装置的结构示意图,该电子雾化装置包括可拆卸连接的主体1和雾化器2,雾化器2表面设有标识,主体1用于安装、控制雾化器2,雾化器2用于对原料进行雾化处理,两者之间可拆卸,从而使雾化器2可更换。
请参阅图2,图2是本发明雾化器控制系统第一实施例的示意图,雾化器控制系统应用于电子雾化装置,电子雾化装置包括可拆卸连接的主体1和雾化器2,可以理解地,本实施例的雾化器控制系统设置于主体1内,用于对雾化器2进行识别、控制。
其中,雾化器控制系统包括光传感器10、雾化器安装识别单元30以及与光传感器10和雾化器安装识别单元30连接的控制单元20,其中,光传感器10用于接收、解读雾化器2上的标识影像,以得到标识信息;控制单元20用于在雾化器2与主体1电连接时,启动光传感器10接收、解读雾化器2上的标识影像,并读取光传感器的标识信息,根据标识信息生成相应的控制指令,以控制雾化器2的工作。雾化器安装识别单元30用于识别雾化器2是否已安装连接到主体,具体的,识别方式为识别主体1和雾化器2是否形成电连接,若识别主体1和雾化器2形成电连接,则识别雾化器2存在,若识别主体1和雾化器2之间未形成电连接,则识别雾化器2不存在。
本实施例中控制单元20还用于将读取的标识信息与预设条件匹配,确定电子雾化装置是否符合工作条件。控制单元20的预设工作条件至少包括设置有与雾化器2的标识信息相匹配的工作模式、标识信息与主体1的型号或参数相匹配、标识信息与主体1的身份信息相匹配其中的一种,如果获取的标识信息与预设工作条件匹配,则确定具备使用雾化器2的工作条件,电子雾化装置可以正常启动使用。否则,判定不具备雾化器2的使用条件,电子雾化装置无法正常使用。
在本实施例中,电子雾化装置的主体1用于安装雾化器2,雾化器2内设有雾化元件和待雾化基质例如烟油,对待雾化基质进行雾化处理。雾化器2安装于主体1上时,光传感器10采集雾化器2的标识图形,以得到标识信息,具体的,标识图形可以为雾化器2的标签,也可以为 设于雾化器2表面的图案、文字、符号、条形码或二维码等,标识图形的设置方式可以为喷绘、镭雕或印刷,标识图形包含了雾化器2的相关产品信息及身份识别信息,如雾化器2的生产日期、型号、规格、使用方式、类别等信息。
具体的,以条形码或二维码为例,光传感器10采集到雾化器2上的条形码/二维码图形后,对条形码/二维码进行识别解码,以得到相关产品信息,然后将该产品信息发送给控制单元20,控制单元20根据相关产品信息控制雾化器2的工作,其中的控制方式至少包括是否启动雾化器2、雾化器2的工作方式以及雾化器2停止工作。
区别于现有技术,本实施例的雾化器控制系统在雾化器2表面设置图形标识,当识别出雾化器存在时,启动光传感器识别图形标识得到标识信息,通过图形识别方式区分雾化器类别,识别雾化器类别后控制雾化器的工作,相比现有技术中通过电子感应识别的方式,本实施例通过图形识别以较低的成本实现雾化器的识别。
参阅图3,图3是本发明雾化器控制系统第二实施例的示意图,本实施例雾化器控制系统包括控制单元20以及与控制单元20连接的光传感器10、雾化器安装识别单元30和存储单元40。
其中,光传感器10用于识别雾化器2上的标识图形,以得到标识信息;控制单元20用于在雾化器2与主体电连接时,控制光传感器10采集雾化器2的标识信息,并根据标识信息生成相应的控制指令,以控制雾化器2的工作。
其中,雾化器安装识别单元30连接控制单元20,用于识别雾化器2是否存在,具体识别方式为,识别主体1和雾化器2是否形成电连接。具体的,雾化器安装识别单元30包括电阻识别电路,用于识别雾化器2与主体1是否形成电连接。当电阻识别电路识别到雾化器2与主体1形成电连接时,反馈信息至控制单元20。雾化器2内设有发热体电阻,当雾化器2安装于主体1上时,发热体电阻与电阻识别电路连通,此时即可识别雾化器2与主体1已经形成电连接,之后控制单元20启动光传感器10采集雾化器2的标识信息。
其中,存储单元40用于储存雾化器2的属性参数,属性参数至少包括规格型号、生产流水号、发热体规格型号及寿命信息中至少一种;当标识信息与属性参数相匹配时,控制单元20输出控制信号,启动电子雾化装置,当标识信息与属性参数不匹配时,电子雾化装置不启动,从而保障主体1与雾化器2的对应,只有当雾化器2与主体1匹配时才可以使用,使雾化器2的使用更加合理,避免产生安全隐患,同时达到防伪的效果。
可选的,在另一实施例中的存储单元40内还存储有与属性参数对应的控制参数,控制单元20还用于采用与标识信息相匹配的控制参数,控制雾化器2工作。控制参数可以为雾化器2的工作参数或工作模式信息,例如雾化器2的工作电压、电流、温度等,控制参数可以包含一种雾化器2的工作参数信息,也可以包含多种雾化器2的工作参数信息,控制不同雾化器2在预设的工作参数下进行工作,达到最优的使用效果。
可选的,在另一实施例中,控制参数包括温度控制曲线,控制单元20还用于采用与标识信息相匹配的温度控制曲线,控制雾化器2的加热温度。温度控制曲线含有雾化器2加热的最低温度、最高温度以及温度变化曲线,控制单元20依据雾化器2的标识信息采用相应的温度控制方式,合理的使用雾化器2,保障雾化器2在恰当的工作模式下运行,使用户可以获得最优的使用体验。
温度控制曲线具体可以是“温度-时间变化曲线”,以确定在随着时间的变化,对雾化器2进行不同程度的加热。如图7所示,图7是本申请提供的温度-时间变化曲线的示意图。
例如,可以根据预设的温度-时间变化曲线,并利用PID(Proportion Integral Differential,比例、积分、微分)算法来控制雾化器的加热温度。其中,该“温度-时间”曲线是指对烟草的加热曲线。
下面通过一具体的场景对本实施例进行说明。
用户在使用电子烟具进行吸烟时,先将主体1和雾化器2连接,可选的,打开设置在主体1上的开关按钮,此时,电子雾化装置开始工作。
主体1获取标识图形的标识信息,得到该雾化器2中发热体的阻值 和温度的对应关系,并开始计时。然后通过获取发热体当前的阻值,并基于发热体参数得到其当前温度,最后通过“温度-时间”曲线来控制发热体的电压。
可以理解的,通常为了使气雾基质(如烟草)加热获取更好的口感,在不同时间段所要求的加热温度是不一样的。在一可选的实施例中,如图5所示,其中横坐标表示时间,纵坐标表示温度。
在T0-T1时间段,对发热体加热,使其温度从常温W0升至温度W1;
在T1-T2时间段,使发热体的温度保持在W1;
在T2-T3时间段,降低发热体的温度,使其温度从W1下降至温度W2;
在T3-T4时间段,使发热体的温度保持在W2;
在T4之后,降低发热体的温度,使其温度从W2下降直至到常温。
其中,在一具体的实施例中,T1的取值可以是5-10s,T2的取值可以是12-18s,W1的取值可以是320-360℃,W2的取值可以是300-340℃。
在一可选的实施例中,T1=7s,T2=15s,W1=340℃,W2=320℃,那么,假设本实施例中的发热体在温度下降1℃时,其电阻对应减少2.28mΩ,那么从温度W1下降至W2,即温度下降20℃,其阻值需要下调20*2.28mΩ。
本实施例中的属性参数还包括抽吸时间和/或抽吸次数,控制单元20还用于在抽吸时间和/或抽吸次数不满足寿命信息的要求时,控制雾化器2停止工作,并提醒更换雾化器2。控制单元20记录雾化器2累计的工作时间或者抽吸次数,进行寿命管理。当雾化器2累计的工作时间或者抽吸次数超过标识信息中的寿命数据时,控制单元20发出控制指令,控制雾化器2停止工作,同时提醒用户更换雾化器2。当交替使用多个雾化器2时,控制单元20分别记录不同雾化器2的使用数据,分别对不同的雾化器2进行寿命管理,从而有效管理雾化器2的使用情况,优化用户体验。
本实施例中的控制单元20还用于在雾化器2每次使用完之后,对 抽吸时间和/或抽吸次数进行更新,当雾化器2下次使用时在更新后的数据上继续记录。
为便于实施本发明标签识别控制系统的雾化器的识别,在使用传感器进行雾化器2的标识识别时,本发明还提供一种电子雾化装置的实施例,请参阅图8至图12,该实施例的电子雾化装置包括可拆卸连接的主体1和雾化器2,主体1内设有光传感器3和控制电路8,雾化器2上设有标识图形21,光传感器3用于在主体1和雾化器2电连接时对标识图形21进行识别以得到标识信息;主体1内形成长条形腔体11,在雾化器2与主体1电连接时,光传感器3和标识图形21分别位于腔体11的两端,腔体11用于供光传感器3识别标识图形21时形成光路100,腔体11的设置可以避免光的散开,使光传感器3能更好识别标识图形21;控制电路8与光传感器3电连接,用于根据光传感器3的识别结果对雾化器2进行操作控制。主体1用于承载控制电路8,与雾化器2连接,雾化器2内设有雾化元件和待雾化材料,用于对待雾化材料进行雾化处理。雾化器2上设有标识图形21,标识图形21可以为雾化器2的标签,也可以为设于雾化器2表面的图案、文字、符号、条形码或二维码等,标识图形21的设置方式可以为喷绘、镭雕或印刷。上述标签、图案、文字、符号、条形码或二维码等包含了雾化器2的相关产品信息及身份识别信息,如雾化器2的生产日期、型号、规格、使用方式、类别等信息。光传感器3用于对标识图形21进行识别,从而区分不同种类、型号的雾化器2,避免雾化器2与主体1之间不匹配的问题。主体1内形成有腔体11,光传感器3和标识图形21分别位于腔体11的两端,形成光路100,利用主体1的内部空间保证光传感器3的焦距,不需要变焦控制,从而降低识别算法复杂度及传感器机构复杂度。
本发明的光传感器3对雾化器2的标识图形21进行识别后,将识别的信息传递至控制电路8,控制电路8将识别信息与预设信息进行对比,若两者匹配则启动雾化器2,若不匹配则不启动雾化器2,只有与主体1对应的雾化器2才能运行,从而将不同的雾化器2进行区分和识别。
本实施例中的主体1内设有相邻的电池安装腔12和雾化器安装腔13;雾化器2容纳于雾化器安装腔13内,且当雾化器2安装于雾化器安装腔13内时,标识图形21朝向腔体11的开口方向;光传感器3设于腔体11中与开口相对的底部,用于发射光线至标识图形21,并接收标识图形21反射的光线,从而识别标识图形21。标识图形21设于雾化器2侧部或底部的外表面,当雾化器2固定于雾化器安装腔13内时,标识图形21的位置与腔体11对应,以便腔体11内的光传感器3可以识别到标识图形21。同时标识图形21和光传感器3分别设于腔体11的两端部,标识图形21和光传感器3之间形成一定距离。腔体11内形成光传感器3发射的光线扩散的光路100,保证光传感器3的焦距,不需要变焦控制,通过简单结构实现雾化器2的识别。
本实施例中的电池安装腔12内设有电池4和电池支架5,腔体11由电池支架5的内壁围合形成。电池安装腔12用于容纳电池4,电池4为电子雾化装置供电。电池支架5用于支撑电池4,避免电池4晃动,同时电池支架5还形成腔体11,用于安装放置光传感器3,在主体1内部形成光路100。
本实施例中的雾化器安装腔13内设有联接部6,用于联接和固定雾化器2;联接部6朝向腔体11的一侧开设有窗口,标识图形21透过窗口正对腔体11的开口端。窗口在联接部6上的设置位置与标识图形21在雾化器2上的位置相对应,雾化器2固定于联接部6上时,标识图形21与窗口均正对腔体11的开口端,保证光传感器3可以识别到标识图形21。
本实施例中的腔体11为从电池安装腔12或雾化器安装腔13内分隔形成的空间,根据不同的需求和电子雾化装置的形状进行设置。当腔体11设于电池安装腔12内时,如图4所示,雾化器2的长度方向与主体1的长度方向相同,如图6所示,标识图形21设于雾化器2的底部,与设于主体1下部的光传感器3的位置对应。当腔体11设于雾化器安装腔13内时,如图5所示,雾化器2的长度方向与主体1的长度方向垂直,标识图形21设于雾化器2的侧部,与设于主体1一侧的光传感 器3对应。标识图形21的位置设置多样化,设于雾化器2的侧部或底部均可,从而也使电子雾化装置的外部形状可以多样化,雾化器2在主体1内的设置方式更加灵活。
本实施例中的主体1内还设有红外识别镜片7,红外识别镜片7覆盖于腔体11的开口上,且标识图形21和光传感器3分别位于红外识别镜片7的两侧。红外识别镜片7用于允许位于一侧的光传感器3发出的光线透过,投射至另一侧的标识图形21上。红外识别镜片7可以设置于雾化器安装腔13或电池安装腔12内,覆盖于腔体11的开口处,联接部6贴合于红外识别镜片7的上部。在红外识别镜片7与腔体11形成的封闭空间内,光传感器3发出的光线形成镜头视场通道,光线从光传感器3发出,扩散到红外识别镜片7上,利用主体1固有的内部空间保证焦距,不需要变焦控制。
本实施例中的光传感器3包括红外识别镜头31和发射灯32,发射灯32投射的光线透过红外识别镜片7朝向标识图形21,红外识别镜头31接收标识图形21表面的反射光。发射灯32位于红外识别镜头31的侧部,用于向标识图形21投射灯光,红外识别镜头31用于接收标识图形21的反射光,识别、解读标识图形21内的信息,并通知控制电路8读取识别信息。
上述电子雾化装置的实施例使传感器采用固定焦距,简化传感器设计,为保证识别图像时焦距正确,采用结构限制传感器镜头与标签图像之间的距离,便于使用传感器进行雾化器2的标识识别。
本发明还提供一种电子雾化装置的控制方法,请参阅图4至图6,图4至图6为电子雾化装置的控制方法的流程图,控制方法应用于电子雾化装置,电子雾化装置包括可拆卸连接的主体和雾化器,雾化器表面设有标识,控制方法包括:
步骤1:主控单元判断雾化器是否已安装连接。
步骤11:判断雾化器是否已安装连接的方式为识别主体和雾化器是否形成电连接,主控单元可以通过发热体电阻识别电路识别雾化器是否与主体安装连接。如果主体和雾化器形成电连接,则判断为已安装;否 则,判断为未安装。步骤2:若雾化器已安装连接,主控单元启动光传感器识别雾化器上的标识,获取雾化器标识信息。
步骤21:启动光传感器识别雾化器上的标识的步骤具体包括:

步骤41:主控单元生成相应的控制指令具体为若符合电子雾化装置工作条件时,根据获取的雾化器标识信息,生成相应控制指令,启动对应的工作模式,解锁电子雾化装置以对应的工作模式正常工作。
步骤42:控制雾化器的工作具体为当标识信息与存储的属性参数相匹配时,获取与属性参数相匹配的控制参数;
利用属性参数和控制参数,控制雾化器的工作。
以下将对上述步骤做具体说明。在本发明控制方法中,首先识别雾化器2是否已安装连接。具体的判断方法为判断主体和雾化器是否形成了电连接,具体的,若识别主体1和雾化器2形成电连接,则识别雾化器2已安装连接,若识别主体1和雾化器2之间未形成电连接,则识别雾化器2未安装连接。主体1和雾化器2是否形成电连接取决于雾化器 2是否安装在主体1上的预设位置,若雾化器2安装在主体1上的预设位置上,则识别主体1和雾化器2形成了电连接,控制雾化器2启动,若雾化器2未安装在主体1上的预设位置上时,则识别主体1和雾化器2之间未形成电连接,不启动雾化器2。识别方法为通过设置电阻识别电路检测雾化器2中的发热体电阻,当发热体电阻与电阻识别电路连通时,即识别雾化器2已经安装在主体1上的预设位置。
当判断雾化器2已安装连接时,进入步骤2,主控单元启动光传感器识别雾化器2上的标识,得到标识上附加的标识信息,采集方式可以为光传感器识别,雾化器2的标识可以为标签、设于雾化器2表面的图案、文字、符号、条形码或二维码等,标识的设置方式可以为喷绘、镭雕或印刷。标识信息包含了雾化器2的相关产品信息及身份识别信息,如雾化器2的生产日期、型号、规格、使用方式、类别等信息。根据雾化器2的标识信息控制电子雾化装置的操作;具体的,采集到雾化器2的识别信息之后读取识别信息,将获取的雾化器2的标识信息与预设条件匹配,判断是否符合电子雾化装置工作条件,即判断电子雾化装置是否具备雾化器2的工作条件,若具备则解锁电子雾化装置以正常工作,否则则不启动雾化器2。根据识别信息生成与识别信息相对应的控制指令,启动相对应的工作模式,例如对不同类型的雾化器2采取不同的运行方式,对雾化器2进行相应的控制,从而有效识别不同的雾化器2,区分不同型号、规格的雾化器2,对不同的雾化器2采用不同的运行方式。
其中,识别雾化器2上的标识的的方法为:发射光到雾化器上的标识;接收标识的反射光,形成光信号;根据光信号解读雾化器上的标识信息。具体的,光传感器接收到主控单元的指示启动后,接收标识的反射光,解读识别标识信息,并通知主控单元读取解读信息,主控单元从光传感器获取雾化器标识信息。
主控单元根据雾化器2的标识信息控制电子雾化装置的操作;具体的,主控单元获取到雾化器标识信息后,与预设的运行条件匹配,从而判断是否具备电子雾化装置的工作条件,具体为根据获取的雾化器标识 信息,启动对应的工作模式。主控单元内存储有与主体相对应和适配的雾化器工作模式,当雾化器与主体相匹配时,即启动相应的工作模式,使雾化器按照预设的模式运行,预设的工作模式至少包括工作电压、电流、温度等工作参数。主控单元控制雾化器进行工作为依据获取的雾化器标识信息生成控制指令,本实施例中的根据标识信息生成相应的控制指令,以控制雾化器2的工作包括:当标识信息与存储的属性参数相匹配时,获取与属性参数相匹配的控制参数;利用属性参数和控制参数,控制雾化器2的工作。属性参数至少包括规格型号、生产流水号、发热体规格型号及寿命信息中至少一种,控制参数包含雾化器2的工作电压、电流、温度等工作参数。本发明的控制方法通过识别标识信息是否与属性参数相匹配,从而判断是否启动雾化器2,当标识信息与预设的属性参数匹配时则启动雾化器2,当标识信息与预设的属性参数不匹配时则不启动雾化器2,实现雾化器2的识别。当雾化器2启动后,通过控制参数对雾化器2进行控制,使雾化器2在预设的工作模式或工作参数下运行,达到最优的使用效果。
本实施例中的控制方法还包括,启动雾化器2工作后存储雾化器2的使用数据,当雾化器2的使用数据与属性参数不匹配时,终止雾化器2的运行。雾化器2的使用数据包括抽吸时间和/或抽吸次数,属性参数中包含有雾化器2的寿命信息,当雾化器2的使用数据超过寿命信息时,发出指令停止雾化器2的工作,并提示用户更换雾化器2。当然,如果有多个雾化器2在一个主体1上使用时,则分别记录多个雾化器2的使用数据,对多个雾化器2均进行寿命管理。
使用本发明的雾化器2控制系统及电子雾化装置的控制方法,通过在雾化器表面设置图形标识,通过图形识别方式区分雾化器类别,以较低的成本实现雾化器的识别。
以上仅为本发明的实施方式,并非因此限制本发明的专利范围,凡是利用本发明说明书及附图内容所作的等效结构或等效流程变换,或直接或间接运用在其他相关的技术领域,均同理包括在本发明的专利保护范围内。
