背景技术
日常生活中，超声雾化器可以使用于加湿、加香、杀菌、装饰、医疗雾化、电子烟等多领域。其中，谐振频率对于超声雾化器是至关重要的一个参数，但随温度、环境、元件的老化、外界施加作用力等各种因素变化，都会导致超声雾化器中超声雾化片的谐振频率发生漂移。而谐振频率的漂移，就会导致超声雾化片的工作效率降低，甚至会损坏超声雾化片。从而，为了使系统具有较大的输出功率，通常需要使超声雾化片工作在谐振频率下。
在现有技术中，为了确定超声雾化片的谐振频率，通常采用相位检测的手段，即采集超声雾化片的电压与电流，比较两者之间的相位关系，并不断调整驱动频率，以使两者相位差为0，从而确定超声雾化片的谐振频率。

具体实施方式
为使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚，下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图，对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述，显然，所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例，而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例，本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例，都属于本申请保护的范围。
请参照图1，图1为本申请实施例提供的超声雾化器的结构示意图。如图1所示，该超声雾化器100包括用于储存腔11、超声雾化片12、控制电路13与电源14。
其中，储存腔11用于存储雾化基质，该雾化基质根据不同的使用场景可包括不同的物质，例如在电子烟雾化领域，可包含尼古丁和/或芳香剂和/或气溶胶生成物质(例如，甘油)；又如在医疗雾化领域，可包括具有疾病治疗或者有利于健康的药物和/或生理盐水等溶剂。
超声雾化片12与储存腔11流体连通，可以是超声雾化片12直接设置在储存腔11，也可以是超声雾化片12所在的雾化腔与储存腔11直接贯通，也可以是超声雾化片12与储存腔11之间通过介质进行液体传输。超声雾化片12用于产生振荡以雾化该雾化基质，即通过振动将传递至超声雾化片12上或者附近的雾化基质雾化成气溶胶。具体地，超声雾化片12在使用中通过高频振动(优选 振动频率为1.7MHz～4.0MHz，超过人的听觉范围属于超声频段)将雾化基质打散而产生微粒自然悬浮的气溶胶。
控制电路13与超声雾化片12电性连接，控制电路13用于根据电源14为超声雾化片12提供驱动电压与驱动电流。在一实施方式中，控制电路13可以设置于印刷电路板(PCB)上。
电源14用于供电。在一实施方式中，电源14为电池。其中，电池可以为锂离子电池、锂金属电池、铅酸电池、镍镉电池、镍氢电池、锂硫电池、锂空气电池或者钠离子电池等，在此不做限定。从规模而言，本申请实施例中的电池可以为电芯单体，也可以是为由多个电芯单体串联和/或并联组成的电池模组等等，在此不做限定。当然，在其他的实施例中，电池也可以包括更多或更少的元件，或者具有不同的元件配置，本申请实施例对此不作限制。
在一实施例中，超声雾化器100还包括液体传递介质15、出气通道16。其中，液体传递元件15用于在储存腔11与超声雾化片12之间传递雾化基质。出气通道16用于将由雾化基质所产生的可吸入蒸汽或气溶胶输出，以供用户抽吸。
超声雾化器100可以为一体式的，也可以为组装式的。在一实施方式中，当超声雾化器100为组装式时，超声雾化器100还包括电源机构与超声雾化器，其中，超声雾化器包括第一壳体17，电源机构包括第二壳体18。
在一实施例中，第一壳体17与第二壳体18之间可拆卸连接，例如第一壳体17与第二壳体18可以通过卡扣结构或磁吸结构等实现可拆卸连接。第一壳体17与第二壳体18共同起到收容及保护其他元器件的作用。其中，储存腔11、超声雾化片12、液体传递元件15与出气通道16均设置于第一壳体17内，且控制电路13与电源14均设置于第二壳体18内。
第一壳体17与第二壳体18以功能性关系可拆卸地对齐。可以利用各种机构将第二壳体18连接到第一壳体17，从而产生螺纹接合、压入配合接合、过盈配合、磁性接合等等。在一些实施方式中，当第一壳体17与第二壳体18处于组装配置时，超声雾化器100可基本上是棒状、扁筒状、杆状或者柱状形状等。
第一壳体17与第二壳体18可由任何适合的结构上完好的材料形成。在一些示例中，第一壳体17与第二壳体18可由诸如不锈钢、铝之类的金属或合金形成。其它适合的材料包括各种塑料(例如，聚碳酸酯)、金属电镀塑料 (metal-plating over plastic)、陶瓷等等。
需要说明的是，如图1所示的超声雾化器100的硬件结构仅是一个示例，并且，超声雾化器100可以具有比图中所示出的更多的或者更少的部件，可以组合两个或更多的部件，或者可以具有不同的部件配置，图中所示出的各种部件可以在包括一个或多个信号处理和/或专用集成电路在内的硬件、软件、或硬件和软件的组合中实现。例如，如图2所示，可将超声雾化片12设于储存腔11中，则可以简化结构。
同时，可以理解的是，图1或图2所示的超声雾化器100可应用于多种不同的场合，并起到不同的作用，本申请实施例对此不做具体限制。例如，在一实施例中，超声雾化器100应用于医学领域，此时，超声雾化器100可以为医用雾化器，该医用雾化器可实现通过对加入其内部的药液进行雾化，并使患者吸入，以达到辅助治疗的效果。又如，在另一实施例中，超声雾化器100还可以作为一种电子产品，比如电子烟，电子烟为通过雾化等手段，将尼古丁溶液等变成气雾后，供用户吸食的一种电子产品。
请参照图3，图3示出了控制电路13与电源14连接的结构示意图。如图3所示，控制电路13包括控制器131、驱动支路132与阻抗支路133。其中，驱动支路132分别与电源14及控制器131连接；阻抗支路133连接于驱动支路132及超声雾化片12之间，阻抗支路133包括与超声雾化片12并联连接的第一电容C1。
具体地，驱动支路132用于响应于控制器131输出的第一脉冲信号而产生驱动电压，驱动电压用于驱动超声雾化片12。阻抗支路133用于使阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合阻抗与驱动支路132的阻抗相匹配，以减少阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合的无功功率部分。控制器131用于获取超声雾化片12的第一电压，并根据第一电压确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在相关技术中，获取超声雾化片12的谐振频率通常采样两种方式。第一种方式为通过采集电源14的输出电流确定谐振频率的方式，具体为，由于超声雾化片12工作在谐振频率下时其阻抗最小，电源14的输出电流最大，所以可通过多个频率驱动超声雾化片，并采集各频率对应的输出电流，所采集到的输出电流中的最大值对应的频率即为谐振频率。
然而，对于本申请而言，由于存在于超声雾化片并联连接的第一电容C1，则第一电容C1所在的支路会产生电流的分流，继而导致所采集到的输出电流中的最大值不再与谐振频率对应，即输出电流中的最大值对应的频率不为谐振频率。因此，通过采集电源14的输出电流确定谐振频率的方式不适用于本申请实施例中的超声雾化器100。
第二种方式为采用相位检测的手段，即采集超声雾化片12的电压与电流，比较两者之间的相位关系，并不断调整驱动频率，以使两者相位差为0，从而确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。然而，该种方式的成本较高，电路也较为复杂，实现难度较高。不利于成本节约及小型化，实用性较差。
而对于本申请而言，则采用一种更加简单的电路结构实现对超声雾化片12的谐振频率的检测。具体为，在保持电源14输出的电压不变时，若超声雾化片12工作在谐振频率点处，超声雾化片12的阻抗最小，则此时超声雾化片12两端的电压也最小。同时，由于第一电容C1是与超声雾化片12并联，所以第一电容C1不会对超声雾化片12两端的电压造成影响。综上，通过获取超声雾化片12的第一电压，就能够确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。并且，所采用的电路结构较为简单，从而有利于降低成本并实现小型化，实用性较强。
在一实施方式中，控制器131还具体用于：在第一时刻之后，获取第一电压，并根据第一电压确定超声雾化片的谐振频率。其中，第一时刻晚于超声雾化片启动的时刻。
在超声雾化片12启动之后，超声雾化片12两端的电压会从最大电压逐渐降低至稳定状态，当超声雾化片12处于稳定状态时，超声雾化片12两端的电压在一个范围内上下波动，则应该在超声雾化片12处于稳定状态时，才获取第一电压，才能够进一步确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。其中，超声雾化片12启动的时刻与第一时刻之间的时长，即超声雾化片12两端的电压会从最大电压降低至稳定状态的时长可根据实际应用情况进行设置，本申请实施对此不作具体限制。比如，在一实施例中，超声雾化片12启动的时刻与第一时刻之间的时长为[10μs，100μs]中的任一时长。并且，为了保持检测结果的稳定性与准确性，可将该时长设置为较大值，例如100μs。
在一实施例中，如图4所示，控制电路13还包括第一转换支路134。第一 转换支路134连接于超声雾化片12及控制器131之间。
其中，第一转换支路134用于将第一电压的波形转化为在预设范围内波动的第一波形。控制器131还用于根据第一波形对应的第二电压，确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。预设范围可根据实际应用情况进行设置，本申请实施例对此不作具体限制。
在该实施例中，第一电压的波形为变化速度较快的波形，若要直接对该波形进行采样，需要采样速度与精度较高的控制器131，该种控制器的成本较高。而在将第一电压的波形转化为在预设范围内波动的第一波形之后，对于采用速度与精度的要求则能够较大程度的降低，从而能够选择使用采样速度与精度较低的控制器131，既可实现对第一波形的采样，又能够节省成本。
请一并参照图4与图5，在一实施例中，第一转换支路包括储能子支路1341。储能子支路1341连接于超声雾化片12及控制器131之间。
其中，储能子支路1341用于响应于第一电压而储能。若在第一时长内，储能子支路1341储能而获得的电压的最大变化值小于预设变化阈值，则将储能子支路1341储能而获得的电压的波形作为第一波形。
在第一电压的驱动下，储能子支路1341上的电荷不断累积。当在第一时长内，由电荷的累积而获得的电压的最大变化值(即第一时长内的最大值与最小值之间的差值)保持小于预设变化阈值，则将此时电荷的累积而获得的电压的波形作为第一波形。此时，可认为电荷保持为稳定的状态，即第一波形为稳定的信号。
其中，预设变化阈值可根据实际应用情况进行设置，本申请实施例对此不作具体限制。例如，在一实施例中，预设变化阈值可设置为0.2v，此时，若由电荷的累积而获得的电压一直保持在[1v,1.1v]的这个范围内，并且保持的时长大于或等于第一时长，则由于电荷的累积而获得的电压的最大变化值为1.1-1＝0.1v，小于0.2v，此时可认为由电荷的累积而获得的电压为稳定的电压，则可获得第一波形。
其中，第一时长可根据实际应用情况进行设置，本申请实施例对此不作具体限制。例如，在一实施方式中，第一时长设置为(0,10ms]中的任一时长，比如10ms。若在10ms内，由电荷的累积而获得的电压的最大变化值能够保持小于 预设变化阈值，则由电荷的累积而获得的电压在10ms内的波动幅度较小。此时，可认为由电荷的累积而获得的第一波形为稳定的波形，则第一波形对应的第二电压为稳定的电压。通过设置该第一时长，能够更为准确的确定第一波形为较为稳定的波形，从而减少误判的几率。
又如，在另一实施方式中，第一时长设置为大于或等于5个采样周期的时长，且每个采样周期为(0,100μs]之间的任一时长。其中，采样周期即每次采样由电荷的累积而获得的电压的周期。若对由电荷的累积而获得的电压连续采样5次以上，所采样到的由电荷的累积而获得的电压的最大变化值均小于预设变化阈值，则可确定第一波形为较为稳定的波形。
比如，在一实施方式中，预设变化阈值设置为0.2v，第一时长设置为等于5个采样周期的时长，且第一次采样到的电压为0.4v，第二次采样到的电压为0.5v，第三次采样到的电压为0.5v，第四次采样到的电压为0.4v，第五次采样到的电压为0.5v。则在该实施例中，电压的最大变化值为0.5-0.4＝0.1v＜0.2v。此时，可将当前的由电荷的累积而获得的电压的波形作为第一波形，第一波形对应的第二电压可以为0.5v。
在该实施例中，通过多次采样的方式，能够避免电压可能因环境的干扰等所出现的波动而导致的采样错误，同样也能够减少误判的几率。此外，通过设置采样周期在(0,100μs]之间的任一时长，则可提高能够采样到电压的几率。
继而，由于第一电压与第一波形对应的第二电压存在对应关系，则通过获取到第二电压，即可确定驱动电压的大小。
同时，在该实施例中，无论第一电压为快速变化的量(即频率较高的信号)，亦或是缓慢变化的量(即频率较低的信号)，均能够实现电荷累积的过程。从而，该方法可适用于各种不同频率的信号，即可适用于各种不同的应用场景，实用性较强。此外，由于储能子支路1341储能而获得的电压为电荷累积后所得到的变量，则该变量对控制器的处理要求较低。而随着采样频率的降低，控制器的价格也降低，则此时可选用采样频率较低的控制器，以在满足对第一波形的采样需求的同时达到节省成本的目的。
进一步地，在一实施例中，控制器131具体用于：输出N个驱动频率驱动超声雾化片，N为≥2的整数。获取N个驱动频率中的M个驱动频率作用下的第 一波形，以获取到M个第一波形，2≤M≤N。获取第一波形对应的第二电压。根据第二电压中的最小值所对应的频率，确定超声雾化片的谐振频率。
其中，由于当超声雾化片12工作在谐振频率处时，超声雾化片12两端的第一电压为最小电压，所以若随着驱动频率的增大，所检测到的第一电压呈现增大的趋势，则后续的驱动频率可以无需再采集第一电压，即无需再采集第一波形，以提高工作效率。亦即，可能只需在N个驱动频率中的M个驱动频率下采集第一波形，也可能需在多个驱动频率中的所有驱动频率下采集第一波形。
继而，每一个第一波形可确定一个第二电压，M个第一波形总共可确定M个第二电压。获取到M个第二电压中的最小值，该最小值对应的频率即为超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
请参照图6，图6中示例性示出了谐振频率为2.94MHz的超声雾化片12在不同驱动频率作用下，所采样到的第一电压与第一波形。其中，曲线V11为驱动频率为2.92MHz时的第一电压；曲线L11为驱动频率为2.92MHz时的第一波形；曲线V12为驱动频率为2.94MHz时的第一电压；曲线L12为驱动频率为2.94MHz时的第一波形；曲线V13为驱动频率为2.96MHz时的第一电压；曲线L13为驱动频率为2.96MHz时的第一波形。
如图6所示，当驱动频率为2.92MHz时，第一波形的变化范围为[840mv，842mv]，预设变化阈值为2mv，则第一波形对应的第二电压可以为841mv；当驱动频率为2.94MHz时，第一波形的变化范围为[733mv，735mv]，预设变化阈值为2mv，则第一波形对应的第二电压可以为734mv；当驱动频率为2.96MHz时，第一波形的变化范围为[1.36v，1.38v]，预设变化阈值为2mv，则第一波形对应的第二电压可以为1.37v。可见，当驱动频率为2.94MHz，恰好为谐振频率时，第一波形对应的第二电压最小，且反之亦成立，因此，若获取到M个驱动频率下的M个第二电压中的最小值，则该最小值对应的频率即为超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在一实施例中，请返回参照图5，第一转换支路134还包括第一预处理子支路1342、整流子支路1343、限压与限流子支路1344。其中，第一预处理子支路1342与超声雾化片12连接，整流子支路1343与第一预处理子支路1342连接，限压与限流子支路1344分别与整流子支路1343、储能子支路1341及控制器131 连接。
具体地，第一预处理子支路1342的第一端与超声雾化片12的第一端连接，第一预处理子支路1342的第二端与整流子支路1343的第一端连接，整流子支路1343的第二端分别与储能子支路1341的第一端及限压与限流子支路1344的第一端连接，限压与限流子支路1344的第二端与控制器131连接。
其中，第一预处理子支路1342被配置为对超声雾化片12的第一电压进行分压与滤波，并输出第一子电压。整流子支路1343被配置为对第一子电压进行整流，以使储能子支路1341响应于第一子电压而储能，并输出第一检测电压。限压与限流子支路1344被配置为对第一检测电压进行限压与限流后输出在预设范围内波动的第一波形至控制器131，以使控制器131根据第一波形对应的第二电压确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在该实施例中，在超声雾化片12的工作过程中，为了确定第一电压的大小，首先，采用第一预处理子支路1342对第一电压进行分压以及滤波处理。其中，通过分压处理，则能够对第一驱动信号进行幅值缩小，以减小输入至控制器131的电压，有利于对控制器131起到保护作用。通过滤波处理，则用以滤除可能出现的高压脉冲信号，以对后续的电子元件，例如控制器131等起到保护作用。
接着，第一预处理子支路1342输出第一子电压，第一子电压被整流子支路1343进行整流，以将第一子电压整流成能够为储能子支路1341充电的信号。
继而，储能子支路1341基于整流后的第一子电压而储能，储能子支路1341的电压逐渐升高，直至储能子支路1341的电压保持为较为稳定的状态，例如，储能子支路1341的电压在处于预设电压范围内，即可认为储能子支路1341的电压保持为较为稳定的状态。此时，储能子支路1341的电压记为第一检测电压，并将第一检测电压传输至限压与限流子支路1344。其中，即使第一电压为快速变化的量(即频率较高的信号)，储能子支路1341能够根据第一子电压进行多个累积，得到一个能反映第一子电压的幅值与频率的变量，再输入至控制器131。可见，控制器131所接收到的信号并非为快速变化的量，而是累积得到的变量，则对控制器131的处理要求不高。换言之，即使选择采样频率较低的控制器131，也能够满足对第一检测电压的采样需求。而随着采样频率的降低，控制器131的价格也降低，从而通过选择采样频率较低的控制器131，能够达到节省成本的 目的。
限压与限流子支路1344在接收到第一检测电压后，对第一检测电压进行限压，以避免其电压上升幅度过大，并对第一检测电压进行限流，以防止过大的电流流入至控制器131，能够对控制器131起到保护作用。继而，限压与限流子支路1344还输出第一波形至控制器131。控制器131在接收到第一波形后，即可根据第一波形对应的第二电压确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在一实施例中，第一预处理子支路1342包括第三电容C3、第三电阻R3与第四电阻R4。其中，第三电阻R3的第一端与超声雾化片12的第一端连接，第三电阻R3的第二端分别与第三电容C3的第一端、第四电阻R4的第一端及整流子支路1343连接，第三电容C3的第二端及第四电阻R4的第二端接地GND。
在该实施例中，第三电阻R3与第四电阻R4的组合用于起到分压的作用，第三电容C3用于起到滤波的作用。
在一实施例中，整流子支路1343包括第一二极管D1。其中，第一二极管D1的阳极与第一预处理子支路1342中第三电阻R3与第四电阻R4之间的连接点连接，第一二极管D1的阴极分别与储能子支路1341及限压与限流子支路1344连接。
在该实施例中，由于第一二极管D1的单向导电性，所以第一二极管D1仅允许大于0的信号，相当于滤除掉了第一预处理子支路1342输出的第一驱动子信号的负半部分，只留下正半部分。同时，第一二极管D1还能够有效防止第一二极管D1的阴极所连接的电路的电压倒流回至第一二极管D1的阳极所连接的电路，能够对第一二极管D1的阳极所连接的电路(例如超声雾化片12)起到保护作用。
在一实施例中，储能子支路1341包括第十六电容C16。其中，第十六电容C16的第一端通过整流子支路1343及第一预处理子支路1342后，分别与第一升压支路142中第一电感L1的第二端、第一开关支路141中第一开关Q1的第三端及超声雾化片12连接，第十六电容C16的第二端接地GND。
具体地，整流子支路1343输出的第一子电压能够对第十六电容C16进行充电。当第十六电容C16两端的电压为一较为稳定的电压时，例如，第十六电容C16两端的电压处于预设电压范围内，此时，将第十六电容C16两端的电压记为 第一检测电压。可见，第十六电容C16能够在第一子电压的驱动下进行电荷的累积，得到一个能反映第一子电压的幅值与频率的变量，再输入至控制器131。因此，控制器131所接收到的信号并非为快速变化的量，而是累积得到的变量。换言之，对控制器131的处理要求不高，即使选择采样频率较低的控制器131，也能够满足对第一检测电压的采样需求，则可通过选择采样频率较低的控制器131，以达到节省成本的目的。
在一实施方式中，第十六电容C16的电容值小于或等于100nF。通过选择小于或等于100nF的第十六电容C16，可实现在以较快的速度生成稳定的第一检测电压的同时，能够降低第一电容C1因被击穿而损坏的风险，有利于提高超声雾化器100工作的稳定性。
在一实施例中，限压与限流子支路1344包括第六电阻R6与第七电阻R7。第六电阻R6的第一端分别与第七电阻R7的第一端、整流子支路1343及储能子支路1341连接，第六电阻R6的第二端接地GND，第七电阻R7的第二端与控制器131连接。
在该实施例中，第六电阻R6用于提供一较小的负载，以对第一检测电压进行限压，从而避免其电压上升幅度过大。第七电阻R7用于对第一检测电压进行限流，以防止过大的电流流入至控制器131，能够对控制器131起到保护作用。
在一实施例中，控制电路13还包括电压放大支路135。其中，电压放大支路135连接于储能子支路1341及控制器之131间。
具体地，电压放大支路135用于对储能子支路1341储能而获得的电压进行放大，并输出第二波形至控制器131。控制器131还用于根据第二波形对应的第三电压确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在该实施例中，通过设置电压放大支路135，有助于获取更明显的波形以更加准确的确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在一实施例中，电压放大支路135包括第一电阻R1、第二电阻R2、第四电容C4、第五电容C5与第一放大器U1。其中，各元件器之间的连接关系可参照图5所示，这里不再赘述。
具体地，第一放大器U1能够将储能子支路1341储能而获得的电压放大一定的倍数，该倍数由第一放大器U1的性能决定，以此加大了不同电压值的区分 度，有利于提高确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率的精度。
在另一些实施例中，请参照图7，控制电路13还包括第二转换支路136。其中，第二转换支路136连接于超声雾化片12及控制器131之间。
具体地，第二转换支路136用于将第一电压的波形转化为具有间隔电压信号的第三波形，并将第三波形输出至控制器131，其中，电压信号包括上升沿或下降沿。控制器131还用于根据第三波形中电压信号对应的第四电压，确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
其中，在未出现电压信号时，第三波形保持不变。并且，只有在每次达到预设定的电压位置时，才出现电压信号。例如，预设定的位置为第一电压的峰值，也就是在第一电压达到峰值时，第三波形出现一次电压信号。从而，根据电压信号对应的第四电压，就能够确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。其中，第一电压的峰值可由控制器131根据第一电压的波形直接获取，也可以由电路结构确定。以下提供一种实现峰值获取的电路结构的实施例。
在一些实施例中，如图8所示，第二转换支路136包括峰值获取子支路1361。其中，峰值获取子支路1361连接于超声雾化片12及控制器131之间。
具体地，峰值获取子支路1361用于获取第一电压的波形中的峰值，以输出第三波形。其中，在每次获取到峰值时，第三波形产生一次电压信号。
进一步地，在一实施例中，控制器131具体用于：输出N个驱动频率驱动超声雾化片，N为≥2的整数。获取N个驱动频率中的M个驱动频率作用下的第三波形，以获取到M个第三波形。获取第三波形对应的第四电压。根据第四电压中的最小值所对应的频率，确定超声雾化片的谐振频率。
在实际应用中，若超声雾化片12工作在谐振频率点处，超声雾化片12的阻抗最小，则超声雾化片12两端的电压也最小，由于超声雾化片12两端的电压通常为正弦波，则超声雾化片12两端的电压中的峰值也最小。因此，通过确定超声雾化片12两端的电压中的峰值，也能够确定超声雾化片12的谐振频率。另外，由于当超声雾化片12工作在谐振频率处时，超声雾化片12两端的第一电压为最小电压，则此时第一电压的峰值也最小，从而若随着驱动频率的增大，所检测到的第一电压的峰值呈现增大的趋势，则后续的驱动频率可以无需再采集第一电压的峰值，即无需再采集第三波形，以提高工作效率。
继而，每一个第三波形可确定一个第四电压，M个第三波形总共可确定M个第四电压。获取到M个第四电压中的最小值，该最小值对应的频率即为超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
请返回参照图6，在实际应用中，当驱动频率为2.92MHz时，第一电压的峰值为29.18mv；当驱动频率为2.94MHz时，第一电压的峰值为26.67mv；当驱动频率为2.96MHz时，第一电压的峰值为44.92mv。可将，当驱动频率为2.94MHz，恰好为谐振频率时，第一电压的峰值最小，且反之亦成立。因此，若获取到M个驱动频率下的M个第四电压(即第一电压的峰值)中的最小值，则该最小值对应的频率即为超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在一实施例中，峰值获取子支路1361包括第六电容C6、第七电容C7、第八电容C8、第九电容C9、第十电容C10、第十一电容C11、第二二极管D2、第三二极管D3、第七电阻R7、第八电阻R8、第九电阻R9、第十电阻R10、第二放大器U2与第三放大器U3。其中，各元器件之间的连接关系可参照图8所示，这里不再赘述。
在该实施例中，第九电容C9被第一电压充电，并充电至第九电容C9上的电压与第一电压中的峰值相等并保持。继而，当第一电压的峰值未来到时，第三放大器U3反相输入端的电压保持小于第三放大器U3同相输入端的电压。只有在第一电压的峰值达到时，第三放大器U3反相输入端的电压保持等于第三放大器U3同相输入端的电压，第三放大器U3输出的电压即为第一电压的峰值(即对应第三波形中的电压信号)。
在一实施例中，第二转换支路136还包括第二预处理子支路1362。第二预处理子支路1362连接于超声雾化片12与峰值获取子支路1361之间。
第二预处理子支路1362用于对第一电压进行整流、分压与滤波。
在一些实施方式中，第二预处理子支路1362包括第四二极管D4、稳压二极管DW1、第十一电阻R11、第十二电阻R12与第十二电容C12。其中，各元器件之间的连接关系可参照图8所示，这里不再赘述。
在该实施方式中，第四二极管D4用于进行整流，第十一电阻R11、第十二电阻R12用于进行分压，第十二电容C12用于进行滤波，稳压二极管DW1用于将输入至第三放大器U3同相输入端的电压进行钳位。
请参照图9，图9中示例性示出了另一实施例提供的控制电路13的结构示意图。如图9所示，控制电路13包括驱动器131、驱动支路132与阻抗支路133。其中，驱动支路132包括电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322、电容子支路1323与谐振子支路1324。
其中，电源子支路1321与电源14连接。开关子支路1322分别与控制器131及电源子支路1321连接。电容子支路1323与开关子支路1322连接。谐振子支路1324分别与电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322及阻抗支路133连接。阻抗支路133还与超声雾化片12连接。
具体地，电源子支路1321用于根据电源14产生直流电源。开关子支路1322用于响应于第一脉冲信号而导通与断开，以根据直流电源产生脉冲电压。电容子支路1323用于实现开关子支路1322的软开通与软关断。谐振子支路1324用于响应于开关子支路1322的导通与断开而谐振，以根据脉冲电压输出驱动电压，以驱动超声雾化片12。阻抗支路用于使阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合阻抗与驱动支路132的阻抗相匹配。控制器131用于获取超声雾化片12的电压，并根据超声雾化片12的电压确定超声雾化片的谐振频率。
在该实施例中，在超声雾化片12需要被驱动时，首先，电源14在经过电源子支路1321后转换为直流电源输出，同时，控制器131输出第一脉冲信号，以控制开关子支路1322在导通与断开之间不断循环切换，从而将电源子支路1321所输出的直流电源转换为交流电源，即脉冲电压。继而，谐振子支路1324在发生谐振后，能够将所接收到的脉冲电压进行升压，并使用升压后的驱动电压驱动超声雾化片12。其中，由于谐振子支路1324实现了谐振，则谐振子支路1324实质上呈现纯电阻性，可减少谐振子支路1324无功功率的部分，即减少了功率损耗，从而提高了超声雾化器100的工作效率。并且，在该种情况下，谐振子支路1324的阻抗最小，电流最大，可输出较大的驱动电压以驱动超声雾化片12稳定运行。
此外，超声雾化片12可等效为一容性负载，而在谐振子支路1324发生谐振之后，电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322和谐振子支路1324的组合为纯阻性输出，若将二者(即容性负载与纯阻性输出)之间直接进行能量传输，则会有较大的无功功率产生，进而导致驱动超声雾化片12的效率大幅度降低。
因此，在此实施例中，还通过设置阻抗支路133，以实现阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合的阻抗与电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322和谐振子支路1324的组合的阻抗相匹配。从而，可减少阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合的无功功率的部分，以减少功率的损耗，超声雾化片12能够获得较高的驱动能量，提高了驱动超声雾化片12的效率，也提高了超声雾化器100的工作效率。
具体地，在一实施方式中，阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合的阻抗(Zh)包括阻抗实部(Rh)与阻抗虚部(j*Xh)，在阻抗实部与电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322和谐振子支路1324的组合的阻抗(Z0)相等、且阻抗虚部为小于第一预设阈值时，阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合的阻抗与电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322和谐振子支路1324的组合的阻抗相匹配。其中，第一预设阈值可根据实际应用情况进行设置，本申请实施例对此不作具体限制。
其中，Zh＝Rh+j*Xh。且，由于电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322和谐振子支路1324的组合的阻抗为纯电阻性，则Z0＝R0，其中，R0表示开关子支路1322和谐振子支路1324的组合的电阻。从而，若要满足阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合的阻抗与电源子支路1321、开关子支路1322和谐振子支路1324的组合的阻抗相匹配，所需满足的条件为：Rh＝R0，且j*Xh＝0。此时，超声雾化片12的工作效率较高。
在一实施例中，如图10所示，电源子支路1321包括第一电感L1。其中，第一电感L1的第一端与电源14连接，第一电感L1的第二端分别与开关子支路1322及谐振子支路1324连接。
具体地，第一电感L1为高频扼流圈，高频扼流圈只对高频交变电流有较大的阻碍作用，对低频交变电流的阻碍作用很小，对直流的阻碍作用更小，因此可以用来“通直流，阻交流，通低频，阻高频”。从而，第一电感L1可允许直流通过以为后续电路提供能量，即实现根据电源14输出直流电源的过程。另外，第一电感L1还可用于防止高频短路。
图4还示例性示出了开关子支路1322的一种结构，如图4所示，开关子支路1322包括开关管Q1。其中，开关管Q1的第一端与控制器131连接，开关管Q1的第二端接地GND，开关管Q1的第三端分别与电源子支路1321及谐振子支路1324连接。
其中，在该实施例中，以开关管Q1为N型金属氧化物半导体场效应晶体管(即NMOS管)为例。具体地，NMOS管的栅极为开关管Q1的第一端，NMOS管的源极为开关管Q1的第二端，NMOS管的漏极为开关管Q1的第三端。
除此之外，在其他实施例中，开关管Q1也可以P型金属氧化物半导体场效应晶体管或信号继电器，开关管Q1还可以是三极管、绝缘栅双极晶体管、集成栅极换向晶闸管、栅极可关断晶闸管、结栅场效应晶体管、MOS控制晶闸管、氮化镓基功率器件、碳化硅基功率器件、可控硅中的至少一种。
在一实施例中，开关子支路1322还包括串联连接的第十三电阻R13与第十四电阻R14。其中，第十三电阻R13与第十四电阻R14串联连接组成的电路的第一端与控制器131连接，第十三电阻R13与第十四电阻R14串联连接组成的电路的第二端接地GND，第十三电阻R13与第十四电阻R14之间的连接点与开关管Q1的第一端连接。
在该实施例中，第十三电阻R13与第十四电阻R14用于对控制器131输出的第一脉冲信号的电压进行分压，以获得开关管Q1的第一端的电压。当第十四电阻R14上的分压大于开关管Q1的导通电压时，开关管Q1导通，反之，开关管Q1断开。
在一实施例中，电容子支路1323包括第十四电容C14，第十四电容C14的第一端与开关管Q1的第三端连接，第十四电容C14的第二端接地GND。
具体地，第十四电容C14用于在开关管Q1断开，且流过谐振子支路1324的电流小于第一电流阈值时充电，以及用于在开关管Q1断开，且流过谐振子支路1324的电流大于或等于第一电流阈值时与谐振子支路1324进行谐振而放电。其中，在第十四电容C14放电至第二电流阈值时，开关管Q1导通。
可以理解的是，第一电流阈值和第二电流阈值的设置均与第一电容C1以及谐振子支路1324的参数相关。换言之，在不同的应用场景中，选择不同的第十四电容C14与谐振子支路1324，可获得不同的第一电流阈值与第二电流阈值，本申请实施例对此不作具体限制。
在该实施例中，当开关管Q1断开瞬间，开关管Q1的第二端与第三端之间的电压不会突然上升，而是先维持第一电容C1两端的电压。直至开关管Q1的第二端与第三端之间的电流降到为零之后，开关管Q1的第二端与第三端之间的 电压再开始上升。从而，实现了开关管Q1的软关断。
与此同时，流过谐振子支路1324的电流小于第一电流阈值，第十四电容C14被充电。接着，谐振子支路1324的电流逐渐增大，直至大于或等于第一电流阈值时，谐振子支路1324的电流大于第一电感L1上的电流，第十四电容C14与谐振子支路1324进行谐振而放电。继而，在第十四电容C14放电至第二电流阈值时，开关管Q1导通。可见，通过选择合适的第十四电容C14与谐振子支路1324，以使第二电流阈值为零，则可实现开关管Q1的零电压导通，亦即，实现了开关管Q1的软开通。
在该实施例中，通过设置第十四电容C14与谐振子支路1324，可实现开关管Q1的软开关过程(包括软开通与软关断)，即保持开关管Q1在导通与断开时，电压与电流的乘积始终为零。从而，开关管Q1的开关损耗也接近为零，开关管Q1的开关效率较高，进而也提高超声雾化器100的工作效率。
图4还示例性示出了谐振子支路1324的一种结构，如图4所示，谐振子支路1324包括第十三电容C2与第二电感L2。其中，第十三电容C2的第一端分别与电源子支路1321(即第一电感L1的第二端)及开关子支路1322(即开关管Q1的第三端)连接，第十三电容C2的第二端与第二电感L2的第一端连接，第二电感L2的第二端与阻抗支路133连接。
在该实施例中，当第十三电容C2与第二电感L2形成串联谐振时，第十三电容C2与第二电感L2组成的电路呈纯电阻性，此时阻抗最小，电流最大，在第十三电容C2与第二电感L2上会产生比输入至谐振子支路1324的脉冲电压大N倍的高电压，其中，N大于1。其中，该高电压即用于驱动超声雾化片12的驱动电压。继而，超声雾化片12可获得较充足的驱动能量，有利于保持超声雾化片12的稳定运行。
在一实施例中，如图4所示，阻抗支路133包括第十五电容C15、第三电感L3与第四电感L4。其中，第三电感L3的第一端分别与第十五电容C15的第一端及第四电感L4的第二端连接，第四电感L4的第一端与谐振子支路1324连接，第三电感L3的第二端与超声雾化片12连接，第十五电容C15的第二端接地GND。
需要说明的是，图10仅示例性示出了阻抗支路133的一种结构，而在其他的实施例中，阻抗支路133也可以为其他的结构，本申请实施例对此不作具体 限制，只需能够实现阻抗支路133和超声雾化片12的组合的阻抗与驱动支路133的阻抗相匹配即可。例如，在一实施方式中，阻抗支路133可以只包括第十五电容C15。此时，第十五电容C15的第一端分别与谐振子支路1324及超声雾化片12连接，第十五电容C15的第二端接地GND。
同时，图7所示的驱动支路132可以与图9所示的驱动路132具有相同的结构。当然，在其他的实施例中，图7所示的驱动支路132还可以为半桥电路的结构或全桥电路的结构等结构，只要在驱动支路132与超声雾化片12之间需要设置对应的阻抗支路133，就能够通过本申请实施例所提供的方案获取超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
请参照图11，图11为本申请实施例提供的基于超声雾化器的谐振频率确定方法的流程图。其中，在一些实施方式中，超声雾化器的具体结构可通过如图1-图5、图6-图10所示的结构实现，具体实现过程在上述实施例已进行详细描述，这里不再赘述。
如图11所示，该基于超声雾化器的谐振频率确定方法包括如下步骤：
步骤1101：输出N个驱动频率驱动超声雾化器中超声雾化片。
步骤1102：获取N个驱动频率中的M个驱动频率作用下超声雾化片的电压对应的检测信号，以获取到M个检测信号。
步骤1103：根据M个检测信号对应的电压中的最小值所对应的频率，确定超声雾化片的谐振频率。
其中，N为≥2的整数，2≤M≤N。
检测信号为与超声雾化片的电压相关的信号，例如超声雾化片的电压的峰值。从而，M个驱动频率的每一个驱动频率下可确定一个检测信号，M个驱动频率总共可确定M个检测信号。由于当超声雾化片12工作在谐振频率处时，超声雾化片12阻抗最小，则在该种情况下与超声雾化片的电压相关的信号也应为最小，即检测信号应为最小。从而，获取到M个检测信号中的最小值，该最小值对应的频率即为超声雾化片12的谐振频率。
在一实施例中，如图12所示，步骤1102中获取N个驱动频率中的M个驱动频率作用下超声雾化片的电压对应的检测信号的过程包括如下步骤：
步骤1201：根据超声雾化片的电压，执行电荷的累积操作。
步骤1202：若在第一时长内，由电荷的累积而获得的电压的最大变化值小于预设变化阈值，则将第一时长内由电荷的累积而获得的电压波形作为检测信号。
具体地，在超声雾化片的电压的驱动下，电荷不断累积。当在第一时长内，由电荷的累积而获得的电压的最大变化值(即第一时长内的最大值与最小值之间的差值)保持小于预设变化阈值，则将此时电荷的累积而获得的电压的波形作为检测信号。此时，可认为电荷保持为稳定的状态，即检测信号为稳定的信号。
在另一实施例中，如图13所示，步骤1102中获取N个驱动频率中的M个驱动频率作用下超声雾化片的电压对应的检测信号的过程包括如下步骤：
步骤1301：根据超声雾化片的电压，执行电荷的累积操作，直至由电荷的累积而获得的电压与超声雾化片的电压的最大值相等，并将由电荷的累积而获得的电压记为基准电压。
步骤1302：在超声雾化片的电压等于基准电压时输出电压信号，其中，电压信号为检测信号。
在该实施例中，基准电压即为超声雾化片的电压的最大值(即峰值)。只有在超声雾化片的电压等于基准电压时输出电压信号，则该电压信号也为超声雾化片的电压的最大值。亦即，实现了获取超声雾化片的电压的峰值的过程，并将该峰值对应的信号作为检测信号，基于该检测信号即可确定超声雾化片的谐振频率。
应理解，方法实施例中对超声雾化器的具体控制以及产生的有益效果，可以参考上述超声雾化器的实施例中的相应描述，为了简洁，这里不再赘述。
最后应说明的是：以上实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案，而非对其限制；在本申请的思路下，以上实施例或者不同实施例中的技术特征之间也可以进行组合，步骤可以以任意顺序实现，并存在如上所述的本申请的不同方面的许多其它变化，为了简明，它们没有在细节中提供；尽管参照前述实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明，本领域的普通技术人员应当理解：其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改，或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换；而这些修改或者替换，并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方 案的范围。
