本申请实施例提供的气溶胶生成设备100用于对气溶胶生成基质进行加热以产生气溶胶供用户使用。其中,加热方式可以为对流、传导、辐射或者其组合。气溶胶生成基质的形态可以是液体、凝胶、膏体或固体等。当气溶胶生成基质为固体时,其可以是粉碎状、颗粒化、粉末状、粒状、条状或片状形式的固体。气溶胶产生基质包括但不限于是用于医疗、养生、健康、美容目的的材料,例如,气溶胶生成基质为药液、油类,或者,气溶胶产生基质为植物类材料,例如植物的根、茎、叶、花、芽、种子等。即,本申请的实施例不限制气溶胶生成基质的加热方式、形态、用途。
请参阅图1,本申请提供一种气溶胶生成设备100。气溶胶生成设备100包括支撑组件10、第一激光器21、第二激光器22及控制器30。支撑组件10用于安装气溶胶生成制品200,气溶胶生成制品200内收容有气溶胶生成基质。第一激光器21和第二激光器22的出光侧朝向支撑组件10,即,第一激光器21和第二激光器22的激光光路经过支撑组件10,其中支撑组件10包括支撑座11及支撑侧壁12,支撑侧壁12与支撑座11连接。在气溶胶生成制品200装入气溶胶生成设备100的情况下,支撑座11能够为气溶胶生成制品200提供支撑。支撑侧壁12可以对气溶胶生成制品200起到一定的固定作用,防止气溶胶生成制品200歪倒,支撑侧壁12还可以阻挡激光,保护气溶胶生成设备100的其他不受激光照射。进一步地,支撑侧壁12包括相对的两侧,其中一侧设有透光部122,使第一激光器21和第二激光器22发射的激光能够穿过透光部122进入支撑组件10内;另一侧设有被照射位121,在气溶胶生成制品200未装入气溶胶生成设备100的情况下,第一激光器21和第二激光器22发射的激光透过透光部122将照射到被照射位121。
这样一来,在气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10的情况下,第一激光器21和第二激光器22的激光能够照射到气溶胶生成制品200,使气溶胶生成制品200内的气溶胶生成基质能够吸收激光的能量而受热生成可供用户吸食的气溶胶。控制器30被配置为控制第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22发射激光,例如,控制第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22是否发射激光、发射的激光功率、发射激光的频率、持续发射激光的时长等等,在此不作限制。其中,控制器30可以独立地对第一激光器21或第二激光器22进行控制。
在气溶胶生成设备100的使用过程中,为了将气溶胶生成基质加热至能够产生气溶胶的温度,需要第一激光器21和第二激光器22发射能量较高的激光以使气溶胶生成基质吸收足够的能量,上述的通过激光进行气溶胶生成的过程的前提是气溶胶生成制品200正确安装在支撑组件10上,当其安装状态不正确时,上述的加热过程一般不启动执行。
基于此,为了实现气溶胶生成设备100能够在气溶胶生成制品200正确安装在支撑组件10上的情况下自动执行加热过程,本申请提供了如下的加热控制方法。
请参阅图1与图2,本申请实施方式中的加热控制方法,具体包括如下步骤:
01:在第一模式下,控制第一激光器21间歇性地发射检测激光;
02:获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号,
其中检测反馈信号由第二激光器22受检测激光的反射光照射生成并确定;
03:根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10;
04:在第一预设时长内,根据所述检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品100从未安装于支撑组件10内的状态切换至安装于支撑组件10内的状态,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第二模式,
其中在第二模式下,第一激光器和/或第二激光器被配置为生成加热激光以加热气溶胶生成制品。
气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤01、步骤02、步骤03及步骤04中的加热控制方法。即,控制器30可用于执行:在第一模式下,控制第一激光器21发射检测激光;获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号;根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10;在确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10的情况下,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第二模式。
本申请实施方式中的电子设备,可以实现上述的加热控制方法。具体地,电子设备包括存储器与处理器,其中存储器存储有计算机程序,处理器用于在第一模式下,控制第一激光器21发射检测激光,以及用于获取第二激光器发送的检测反馈信号,以及用于在确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10的情况下,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第二模式。
具体地,为了实现上述的目的,本申请实施方式能够在气溶胶生成设备100的系统上电并进入到识别模式(对应于第一模式)的情况下,将气溶胶生成设备100的各个激光器分作两组用途,其中第一激光器21为一组,用于发射检测激光,第二激光器22则为另一组,用于接收检测激光经由第一激光器21、支撑组件10以及第二激光器22的光路而形成的反射光。第二激光器22接收到上述的反射光能量时,由于光电效应,处于未激发状态的第二激光器22则会产生光电流/光电动势等光电信号(对应于检测反馈信号)。请参阅图3与图4,图3与图4分别示出了气溶胶生成基质正确安装以及未安装的情况。那么基于上述的图示,常识性地,气溶胶生成基质的正确安装与否,会使得气溶胶生成基质不在被照射位与在被照射位时相比检测激光照射的表面以及距离不同,也即直接影响了检测激光的光路,故气溶胶生成基质的正确安装与否会直接改变第二激光器22接收到的反射光,因而进一步影响因光电效应而产生的光电信号,因此反过来可以利用上述的光电信号取值来判断气溶胶生成基质的正确安装与否。当气溶胶生成装置100的控制器30接收到上述的光电信号后,则根据光电信号的自身的属性判断当前气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,并在检测到已经正确安装的情况下,一方面控制气溶胶生成装置100进入正常工作模式(对应于第二模式),另一方面则可以通过语音、屏幕弹窗、振动等方式提醒用户当前气溶胶生成制品200已经正确安装,气溶胶生成装置100进入正常工作模式。
需要注意的是,为了保证根据光电信号来控制模式切换的准确性,无论控制器30基于上述光电信号判定当前气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,若要根据上述的判定结果进一步进行模式切换控制,还需要检测上述的判定结果能够维持的时长,利用上述时长的始末两个时间点处气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10之间的位置关系变化来确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,从而降低出现误识别的概率。例如,在第一预设时长的起始时间点检测到气溶胶生成制品200并未与支撑组件10固定连接,而在第一预设时长的终止时间点检测到气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10固定连接的情况下,即可以确定气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10之间正确安装,控制器30控制气溶胶生成装置100进入正常工作模式,上述第一预设时长可以是0s~3s范围内的任意值。
如此,本申请能够气溶胶生成设备100启动并进入识别模式的情况下,将多组激光器分作检测激光发射与反射光接收两种用途,利用在光电效应中接受反射光的激光器所产生的光电信号来判断当前气溶胶生成制品200是否就位,并进一步地在气溶胶生成制品200就位的情况下控制气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作状态,从而在气溶胶生成制品200插入到气溶胶生成设备100上的正确位置时实现气溶胶生成设备100的自动加热,无需用户额外操作,提高系统的操作便利性与安全性。
请参阅图5,在某些实施方式中,步骤01包括:
011:响应于检测到第一按键信号、第一运动传感器信号以及第一气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,或检测到电路电源50接通,控制气溶胶生成设备100上电;和/或
012:响应于检测到第二按键信号、第二运动传感器信号以及第二气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,或检测到电路电源50接通,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第一模式,
其中第一气体流动传感器以及第二气体流动传感器用于判定用户执行抽吸动作;和/或
013:响应于气溶胶生成设备100上电并进入第一模式,控制第一激光器21周期性地发射检测激光,
其中检测激光的脉冲时长小于预设脉冲时长阈值,检测激光的脉冲功率位于预设功率范围内。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤011、步骤012以及步骤013。即,控制器30可用于执行:响应于检测到第一按键信号、第一运动传感器信号以及第一气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,或检测到电路电源50接通,控制气溶胶生成设备100上电;响应于检测到第二按键信号、第二运动传感器信号以及第二气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,或检测到电路电源50接通,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第一模式;响应于气溶胶生成设备100上电并进入第一模式,控制第一激光器21周期性地发射检测激光。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于响应于检测到第一按键信号、第一运动传感器信号以及第一气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,或检测到电路电源接通,控制气溶胶生成设备100启动,以及用于响应于检测到第二按键信号、第二运动传感器信号以及第二气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,或检测到电路电源50接通,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第一模式,以及用于响应于气溶胶生成设备100上电并进入第一模式,控制第一激光器21周期性地发射检测激光。
具体地,对于气溶胶生成设备100的上电启动以及识别模式的进入,在某些示例中,气溶胶生成设备100上还设置有按键组件,当用户以预设的诸如短按、长按、连续多次等方式的按键方式A按下按键时,控制器30会接收到按键组件发送来的第一按键信号,此时控制器30根据第一按键信号控制气溶胶生成设备100上电。在此基础上,控制器30还可以进一步根据第一按键信号控制气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式。在另一些示例中,于气溶胶生成设备100上电后,当用户以预设的诸如短按、长按、连续多次等方式的按键方式B按下按键时,控制器30会接收到按键组件发送来的第二按键信号,此时控制器30根据第二按键信号控制气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式。
在另一些示例中,气溶胶生成设备100上设置有运动传感器,用于检测气溶胶生成设备100当前在空间的运动状态,在运动传感器检测到气溶胶生成设备100的位置在较短的时间范围内被抬高了一个位于预设范围内的高度的情况下,可以认为此时用户是将气溶胶生成设备100从口袋或其他位置拿到了嘴边,此时运动传感器产生第一运动传感器信号,并将其发送给控制器30。控制器30接收到上述的第一运动传感器信号后,控制溶胶生成设备100上电。在此基础上,控制器30还可以进一步根据第一运动传感器信号控制气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式。此外,在另一些示例中,于气溶胶生成设备100上电后,在运动传感器检测到气溶胶生成设备100在一个较短的时长内维持了自身的当前位置的情况下,运动传感器产生第二运动传感器信号并将其发送给控制器30。控制器30接收到上述的第二运动传感器信号后,控制溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式。
在另一些示例中,气溶胶生成设备100还设置有咪头,用户可以通过咪头执行抽吸动作来吸食气溶胶。在上述的咪头处还设置有气体流动传感器,可以通过对咪头内气体的流速、压强等物理量进行测量,并将其转换为电信号。当气体流动传感器检测到咪头内部的流速增大或压强减小时,可以认为此时用户执行了抽吸动作。此时气体流动传感器产生第一气体流动传感器信号,并将其发送给控制器30。控制器30接收到上述的第一气体流动传感器信号后,控制气溶胶生成设备100上电。在此基础上,控制器30还可以进一步根据第一气体流动传感器信号控制气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式。此外,在另一些示例中,于气溶胶生成设备100上电后,当气体流动传感器再一次检测到咪头内部的流速或压强出现变化时,可以认为此时用户执行或停止了抽吸动作。此时气体流动传感器产生第二气体流动传感器信号,并将其发送给控制器30。控制器30接收到上述的第二气体流动传感器信号后,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式。
在另一些示例中,请参阅图1,气溶胶生成设备100的电源50为干电池或可充电电池。当电源50接入电路时,控制器30检测到气溶胶生成设备100整体电路接通,此时控制器30控制气溶胶生成设备100上电。在此基础上,控制器30还可以进一步控制气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式。
在气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式后,即控制第一激光器21发射检测激光,开启针对气溶胶生成制品200是否正确安装于支撑组件10的检测过程。
而在上述实施方式的基础上,为了能够实现在气溶胶生成制品200正确安装时气溶胶生成设备100能够自动加热,需要持续不断地对气溶胶生成制品200是否正确安装进行检测,这样才能够使控制器30在气溶胶生成制品200正确安装时及时控制气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作模式。因此在某些示例中,当气溶胶生成设备100进入到识别模式后,控制器30会控制第一激光器21周期性地发射检测激光,从而保证随时能够检测到气溶胶生成制品200正确安装,从而从根本上保证了气溶胶生成制品200插入气溶胶生成装置100时气溶胶生成装置100能够自动进入正常工作状态的逻辑基础。另外,为了节约系统能耗,检测激光的脉冲时长以及脉冲功率一般也需要控制。在某些示例中,有关于上述的脉冲时长一般设置有一个预设阈值,该阈值一般位于10μs~1ms的范围内,具体取值可以根据实际情况进行调整,而有关于上述的脉冲功率一般控制在1W~15W的范围内。
比如,请参阅图6,某些示例中,上述的光电信号为反馈电压,第一激光器21件发射检测激光的时段,是自检测激光开始发射,到反射的检测激光反射至第二激光器22产生反馈电压,直至产生的反馈电压消失的总时段,以确保在一次检测激光发射后,第二激光器22能够响应该次发射的检测激光的反射光而产生反馈电压。例如,第一激光器21每间隔T1时间发射一次检测激光,图5的t1时段的反馈电压存续的总时段(检测激光开始发射至第二激光器22接收到反射的检测激光的时间很短,忽略不计),将t1时段作为第一激光器21件发射检测激光的时段。
需要说明的是,图5中步骤011、步骤012、步骤013的顺序仅为流程示意,实际执行时三者的顺序可以根据实际情况进行适应性调整,图5不应被理解为执行顺序的限定。
如此,本申请能够基于按键、设备自身的运动状态、设备上咪头处的气体流动情况、电源50的接入情况等信号参数,控制气溶胶生成设备100的上电以及识别模式的进入,并能够在气溶胶生成设备100进入识别模式的基础上,周期性地控制用作检测激光发射的激光器周期性地发射检测激光,从而实现对气溶胶生成制品200的周期性检测,为气溶胶生成制品200插入气溶胶生成装置100时装置的自动加热提供逻辑基础。
请参阅图7,在某些实施方式中,步骤03包括:
031:在检测反馈信号在第一区间内的情况下,确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10;
032:在检测反馈信号在第二区间内的情况下,确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10,第一区间和第二区间的范围不重叠。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤031、步骤032。即控制器30可用于执行:在检测反馈信号在第一区间内的情况下,确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10;在检测反馈信号在第二区间内的情况下,确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10,第一区间和第二区间的范围不重叠。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于在检测反馈信号在第一区间内的情况下,确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10,以及用于在检测反馈信号在第二区间内的情况下,确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10,第一区间和第二区间的范围不重叠。
具体地,请再次参阅图6,需要预先说明的是,在某些示例中,第二激光器22受反射的检测激光照射时产生光生电动势,控制器30能够检测第二激光器22产生的光生电动势以获取反馈电压,以反馈电压作为检测反馈信号。在其他示例中,还可以采用基于第二激光器22产生的光生电动势获取反馈电流,以反馈电流作为检测反馈信号的方式,在此不作限制。
以检测反馈信号是反馈电压为例,则对应地,第一区间是指第一电压区间,对应图6示意的区间(Vth1,Vth2),第二区间是指第二电压区间,对应图6示意的区间(Vth3,Vth4)。在气溶胶生成制品200安装于气溶胶生成设备100和未安装于气溶胶生成设备100的不同情况下,第二激光器22对应产生的反馈电压值不同,从而能够根据第二激光器22产生的反馈电压确定检测激光是否照射气溶胶生成制品200,以确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10。
如图6所示,第一区间是预先测定的检测激光照射到气溶胶生成制品200后反射至第二激光器22的情况下,在第二激光器22对应可检测到的电压范围区间。若气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10,则在第一激光器21发射检测激光的情况下,检测激光照射到气溶胶生成制品200后反射至第二激光器22,第二激光器22的反馈电压应该在第一区间内。因此,在反馈电压在第一区间内的情况下,能够确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10。
类似地,第二区间是预先测定的检测激光照射到支撑组件10的被照射位121后反射至第二激光器22的情况下,在第二激光器22对应可检测到的电压范围区间。若气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10,在第一激光器21发射检测激光的情况下,检测激光照射到被照射位121后反射至第二激光器22,那么第二激光器22的反馈电压应该在第二区间内。因此,若在第一激光器21发射检测激光的情况下,第二激光器22产生反馈电压,反馈电压不在第一区间内,但反馈电压在第二区间内,则说明检测激光照射到的不是气溶胶生成制品200,而是照射到被照射位121,从而能够确定气溶胶生成制品200未正确安装于支撑组件10。
如图6所示,若在某一时段检测到反馈电压从第一区间(Vth1,Vth2)跳变至第二区间(Vth3,Vth4),也即是气溶胶生成制品200从安装于支撑组件10的状态变为未正确安装于支撑组件10的状态,代表在跳变期间内气溶胶生成制品100从支撑组件10拔出。相反方向类似地,若在某一时段检测到反馈电压从第二区间(Vth3,Vth4)跳变至第一区间(Vth1,Vth2),也即是气溶胶生成制品200从未正确安装于支撑组件10的状态变为安装于支撑组件10的状态,代表在跳变期间内气溶胶生成制品100正确插入到支撑组件10。
在一个实施例中,可以将气溶胶生成制品200插入的动作作为加热启动信号。例如,在反馈电压从第二区间跳变至第一区间的情况下,将首个第一区间的反馈电压信号(例如图6的信号S1)作为控制气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作模式的启动信号。
其中,第一区间和第二区间不重合,为避免出现反馈电压既在第一区间内,又在第二区间内,而无法确定检测激光是照射到了气溶胶生成制品200还是照射到了被照射位121的情况发生,可通过调整气溶胶生成制品200的外壳材料、被照射位121的材料、设置涂层、调整被照射位121与第一激光器21的间距、调整检测激光的功率等方式对反射激光的强度进行调控,以确保第一区间和第二区间不重合。如图6所示,例如,第一区间的范围是(Vth1,Vth2),第二区间的范围是(Vth3,Vth4),那么只要设置为Vth1>Vth4,或Vth3>Vth2,即可使第一区间和第二区间不重合。
如此,本申请还能够基于用作反射光接收的激光器所产生的光电信号所处的范围区间,判断出气溶胶生成制品200是否正确安装于支撑组件10上。
在某些实施方式中,加热控制方法还包括:
在第一模式下、或在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10的情况下,限制第一激光器21和第二激光器22输出激光的能量;
在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10的情况下,延长气溶胶生成装置100的待机时长,并控制气溶胶生成设备100维持第一模式,以控制第一激光器21发射检测激光。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤。即,控制器30可用于:在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10的情况下,限制第一激光器21和第二激光器22输出激光的能量;在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10的情况下,延长气溶胶生成装置100的待机时长,并控制气溶胶生成设备100维持第一模式,以控制第一激光器21发射检测激光。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10的情况下,限制第一激光器21和第二激光器22输出激光的能量,以及用于在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10的情况下,延长气溶胶生成装置100的待机时长,并控制气溶胶生成设备100维持第一模式,以控制第一激光器21发射检测激光。
具体地,在上述实施方式的基础上,在气溶胶生成装置100处于识别模式下、或者事在控制器30根据第二激光器22生成的光电信号确定当前气溶胶生成制品200并未正确安装于支撑组件10的情况下,当前气溶胶生成设备100不应进入正常工作状态。示例性地,为了保证气溶胶生成设备100的使用安全,在气溶胶生成制品200并未正确安装于支撑组件10的情况下,尽可能降低第一激光器21与第二激光器22发出的激光对用户或设备周围的其他物体进行照射时产生的影响,控制器30会对第一激光器21以及第二激光器22输出的激光的能量的最大值进行限制,降低高能激光照射对用户、气溶胶生成设备100以及周围环境造成高温、点燃等安全威胁的概率,从而提高气溶胶生成设备100的使用安全性。
此外,在上述实施方式的基础上,在控制器30根据第二激光器22生成的光电信号确定当前气溶胶生成制品200并未正确安装于支撑组件10的情况下,为了能够进一步维持气溶胶生成设备100根据气溶胶生成基质的正确安装与否实现正常工作模式的自动加热的运行逻辑,在某些示例中,控制器30会在气溶胶生成装置100当前设定的待机时长基础上进一步延长,从而延长气溶胶生成装置100待机上电的时长,从而延长气溶胶生成装置100处于识别模式中的时长,从而维持气溶胶生成设备100能够根据气溶胶生成基质的正确安装与否实现正常工作模式的自动加热的运行逻辑。
如此,本申请能够在气溶胶生成制品200并未正确安装于支撑组件10的情况下,限制各个激光器能够输出的激光的最大能量,避免因激光能量过大而造成支撑组件10或设备以外的其他物体因高温而产生燃烧或其他意外情况,同时还能够延长装置的待机时长,并将装置的运行模式维持在识别模式上,以方便用户随时插入气溶胶生成制品以开始使用装置,提高使用的便利性。
请参阅图8,在某些实施方式中,第二激光器22为半导体激光器,加热控制方法还包括:
001:响应于第二激光器22在未激发状态下受检测激光的反射光照射,生成初始检测反馈信号;
002:根据初始检测反馈信号,经预设电信号处理,确定检测反馈信号。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤。即,控制器30可用于:响应于第二激光器22在未激发状态下受检测激光的反射光照射,生成初始检测反馈信号;根据初始检测反馈信号,经预设电信号处理,确定检测反馈信号。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于响应于第二激光器22在未激发状态下受检测激光的反射光照射,生成初始检测反馈信号,以及用于根据初始检测反馈信号,经预设电信号处理,确定检测反馈信号。
具体地,在上述实施方式的基础上,常识性地,激光器照射产生的光电效应中,生成的光电流或光电动势等光电信号的强度普遍较弱,利用上述光电信号直接进行识别时对识别精度的要求比较高。为了能够降低对光电信号的识别难度,在某些示例中,控制器30在接收到第二激光器22产生的光电信号(对应于初始检测反馈信号)后,利用设置于自身内部的放大电路或其他电信号处理电路对接收到的光电信号进行放大或其他电信号处理(对应于预设电信号处理),从而将上述的接收到的光电信号处理为可以直接进行识别的信号(对应于检测反馈信号),以便于后续通过对处理后的信号进行识别来判定气溶胶生成制品200是否正确安装于支撑组件10。
如此,本申请还能够针对用作反射光接收的激光器基于光电效应生成的光电信号进行电信号处理,得到可以直接用于范围判断的检测反馈信号,从而克服了光电信号过于微弱导致无法精确判断的问题。
在某些实施方式中,加热控制方法还包括:
在气溶胶生成设备100处于第二模式的情况下,响应于检测到第三按键信号或第三气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,驱动第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22发射加热激光加热气溶胶生成制品200。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤。即,控制器30可用于:在气溶胶生成设备100处于第二模式的情况下,响应于检测到第三按键信号或第三气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,驱动第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22发射加热激光加热气溶胶生成制品200。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于在气溶胶生成设备100处于第二模式的情况下,响应于检测到第三按键信号或第三气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,驱动第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22发射加热激光加热气溶胶生成制品200。
具体地,在上述实施方式的基础上,当气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作模式后,为了能够实现用户吸食气溶胶的目的,在某些示例中,若此时用户以预设的诸如短按、长按、连续多次等方式的按键方式C按下按键,控制器30会接收到按键组件发送来的第三按键信号,此时控制器30根据第三按键信号控制气溶胶生成设备100中的第一激光器21以及第二激光器22中的一个或多个开启激光照射,从而实现针对气溶胶生成制品200的加热。
而在另一些示例中,若此时气体流动传感器检测到咪头内部的流速增大或压强减小,可以认为此时用户执行了抽吸动作。此时气体流动传感器产生第三气体流动传感器信号,并将其发送给控制器30。控制器30接收到上述的第三气体流动传感器信号后,控制器30根据第三气体流动传感器信号控制气溶胶生成设备100中的第一激光器21以及第二激光器22中的一个或多个开启激光照射,从而实现针对气溶胶生成制品200的加热。
气溶胶生成制品200中的气溶胶生成基质受到上述激光照射而被加热后即可产生可供用户吸食的气溶胶。
如此,本申请能够在气溶胶生成设备进入正常工作状态的情况下,通过检测用户按键或者用户通过在咪头处做出抽吸动作的方式触发针对气溶胶生成制品的加热,从而实现气溶胶的生成。
请参阅图9,在某些实施方式中,加热控制方法还包括:
0031:在气溶胶生成设备100处于第二模式的情况下,响应于检测到第三按键信号或第三气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,控制第一激光器21发射检测激光;
0032:获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号;
0033:根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10;
0034:在确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10且至少维持第二预设时长的情况下,驱动第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22发射加热激光加热气溶胶生成制品200。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤0031、步骤0032、步骤0033以及步骤0034。即,控制器30可用于:在气溶胶生成设备100处于第二模式的情况下,响应于检测到第三按键信号或第三气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,控制第一激光器21发射检测激光;获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号;根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10;在确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10且至少维持第二预设时长的情况下,驱动第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22发射加热激光加热气溶胶生成制品200。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于在气溶胶生成设备100处于第二模式的情况下,响应于检测到第三按键信号或第三气体流动传感器信号中的至少一个,控制第一激光器21发射检测激光,以及用于获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号,以及用于根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件,以及用于在确定气溶胶生成制品200安装于支撑组件10且至少维持第二预设时长的情况下,驱动第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22发射加热激光加热气溶胶生成制品200。
具体地,在上述实施方式的基础上,当气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作模式后,由于气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10之间是通过插拔的方式固定连接的,那么在使用过程中有可能会出现在控制器30控制气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作模式后,气溶胶生成制品200的位置出现变化,导致气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10之间重新回到没有正确安装的情况,此时若贸然控制激光器进行加热有可能会导致不可预知的后果。
因此,示例性地,为了气溶胶生成设备100的使用安全,当气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作模式后,响应于上述实施方式中用户按键动作或用户抽吸动作,控制器首先利用上述实施方式中的方法,再次确认气溶胶生成制品200是否正确安装于支撑组件10。
比如,在第二预设时长的起始时间点检测到气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10固定连接,而在第二预设时长的终止时间点同样检测到气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10固定连接的情况下,即可以确定气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10之间正确安装,控制器30控制气溶胶生成装置100进入正常工作模式,上述的第二预设时长一般应小于上述实施方式中的第一预设时长,以避免针对气溶胶生成设备100的流畅使用造成负面影响。
在控制器30根据上述方式判定气溶胶生成制品200已经正确安装于支撑组件10的情况下,控制器30进一步控制气溶胶生成设备100中的第一激光器21以及第二激光器22中的一个或多个开启激光照射,从而实现针对气溶胶生成制品200的加热。
气溶胶生成制品200中的气溶胶生成基质受到上述激光照射而被加热后即可产生可供用户吸食的气溶胶。
如此,本申请还能够气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作状态的情况下,通过检测用户按键或者用户通过在咪头处做出抽吸动作的方式触发针对气溶胶生成制品200的加热之前,再重新确认一次气溶胶生成制品200是否已经正确安装,以保证加热过程的可靠性与安全性。
在某些实施方式中,加热控制方法还包括:
响应于第四气体流动传感器信号或运行时长信号,控制第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22停止发射加热激光,以停止加热气溶胶生成制品200,其中第四气体流动传感器信号用于判定用户的抽吸动作停止。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤。即控制器30可用于:响应于第四气体流动传感器信号或运行时长信号,控制第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22停止发射加热激光,以停止加热气溶胶生成制品200,其中第四气体流动传感器信号用于判定用户的抽吸动作停止。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于响应于第四气体流动传感器信号或运行时长信号,控制第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22停止发射加热激光,以停止加热气溶胶生成制品200,其中第四气体流动传感器信号用于判定用户的抽吸动作停止。
具体地,在上述实施方式的基础上,用户使用气溶胶生成设备100吸食气溶胶的过程中,激光器不可能长时间对气溶胶生成制品200进行持续加热,那么为了实现停止加热的控制,在某些示例中,当激光器正在照射加热气溶胶生成制品200时,若此时用户以预设的诸如短按、长按、连续多次等方式的按键方式D按下按键,控制器30会接收到按键组件发送来的第四按键信号,此时控制器30根据第四按键信号控制气溶胶生成设备100中的所有正在进行激光照射的第一激光器21以及第二激光器22停止激光照射,从而实现停止针对气溶胶生成制品200的加热。
而在另一些示例中,若此时气体流动传感器检测到咪头内部的流速减小或压强增大,可以认为此时用户停止了抽吸动作。此时气体流动传感器产生第四气体流动传感器信号,并将其发送给控制器30。控制器30接收到上述的第四气体流动传感器信号后,控制器30根据第四气体流动传感器信号控制气溶胶生成设备100中的所有正在进行激光照射的第一激光器21以及第二激光器22停止激光照射,从而实现停止针对气溶胶生成制品200的加热。
如此,本申请还能够在气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作状态的情况下,通过检测用户按键或者用户通过在咪头处做出抽吸动作的方式触发针对气溶胶生成制品200的加热之前,再重新确认一次气溶胶生成制品200是否已经正确安装,以保证加热过程的可靠性与安全性。
在某些实施方式中,加热控制方法还包括:
响应于气溶胶生成设备100进入所述第二模式,向用户发送预设提示信息,
其中预设提示信息被配置为提示用户所述气溶胶生成设备100进入第二模式。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤。即控制器30可用于:响应于气溶胶生成设备100进入所述第二模式,向用户发送预设提示信息。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于响应于气溶胶生成设备100进入所述第二模式,向用户发送预设提示信息。
具体地,当气溶胶生成装置100的控制器30接收到上述的光电信号后,则根据光电信号的自身的属性判断当前气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,并在检测到已经正确安装的情况下,一方面控制气溶胶生成装置100进入正常工作模式(对应于第二模式),另一方面则可以通过语音、屏幕弹窗、振动等方式提醒用户当前气溶胶生成制品200已经正确安装,气溶胶生成装置100进入正常工作模式。
如此,本申请还能够向用户反馈提示信息,用以提醒用户气溶胶生成设备已经正常进入启动模式。
在某些实施方式中,加热控制方法还包括:
在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10且至少维持预设时长的情况下,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第一模式,并向用户发送第二预设提示信息,
其中第二预设提示信息被配置为提示用户气溶胶生成设备100因气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10而进入第一模式。
在某些实施方式中,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤。即控制器30可用于:在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10且至少维持预设时长的情况下,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第一模式,并向用户发送第二预设提示信息。
在某些实施方式中,处理器还用于在确定气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10且至少维持预设时长的情况下,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第一模式,并向用户发送第二预设提示信息。
具体地,在上述实施方式的基础上,无论是气溶胶生成装置100处于识别模式还是正常工作模式,在控制器30根据上述实施方式中提供的方式检测到当前气溶胶生成制品200未安装于支撑组件10,且上述情况已经维持了一段时间的情况下,为了保证使用安全、并保证气溶胶生成装置100随着气溶胶生成制品200的正确安装而实现正常工作模式的自动加热,示例性地,控制器30在上述情况下将气溶胶生成装置100置为识别模式,并通过语音、屏幕弹窗或振动等方式提示用户当前气溶胶生成制品200未正确安装,气溶胶生成装置100因此进入识别模式,若气溶胶生成装置100当前处于正常工作模式,则还可以提示用户气溶胶生成装置100当前已退出正常工作模式。这样一来,一方面保证气溶胶生成装置100在上述情况下不处于正常工作模式,保证使用安全,同时通过气溶胶生成装置100在上述情况下进入识别模式,保证气溶胶生成设备100能够根据气溶胶生成基质的正确安装与否实现正常工作模式的自动加热的运行逻辑。
如此,本申请还能够在重复确认气溶胶生成制品200过程中检测到气溶胶生成制品200出现未安装到位的情况的基础上,控制气溶胶生成装置100回归到识别模式,并提示用户气溶胶生成制品200安装不到位或者已拔出,并维持下一次气溶胶生成设备100自动加热的逻辑基础。
请参阅图10,本申请实施方式中的一种加热控制方法,具体包括如下步骤:
0001:在第二模式下,控制第一激光器21间歇性地发射检测激光;
0002:获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号,
其中检测反馈信号由第二激光器受检测激光的反射光照射生成并确定;
0003:根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10;
0004:在第三预设时长内,根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品100从安装于支撑组件10内的状态切换至未安装于支撑组件100内的状态,控制气溶胶生成设备100进入第一模式,
其中在第一模式下,第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22被配置为识别气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,且第一模式下,限制第一激光器21和第二激光器22输出激光的能量。
气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30可用于执行上述步骤0001、步骤0002、步骤0003及步骤0004中的加热控制方法。即,控制器30可用于执行:在第二模式下,控制第一激光器21间歇性地发射检测激光;获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号;根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10;在第三预设时长内,根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品100从安装于支撑组件10内的状态切换至未安装于支撑组件100内的状态。
本申请实施方式中的处理器还用于在第二模式下,控制第一激光器21发射检测激光,以及用于获取第二激光器22发送的检测反馈信号,以及用于根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,以及用于在第三预设时长内,根据检测反馈信号确定气溶胶生成制品100从安装于支撑组件10内的状态切换至未安装于支撑组件100内的状态。
具体地,除了上述实施方式中提出的加热控制方法、通过检测气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10之间是否正确安装来控制气溶胶生成设备100进入正常工作模式以外,在另一些实施方式中,在当前气溶胶生成设备100已经处于正常工作模式、第一激光器21和/或第二激光器22对气溶胶生成制品200进行激光照射从而加热气溶胶生成基质以产生气溶胶的情况下,气溶胶生成设备100的控制器30还可以在对气溶胶生成基质进行加热的间隙控制第一激光器21维持检测激光的周期性发射,从而实现对气溶胶生成制品200于支撑组件10之间是否正确安装进行进一步的实时检测。
需要注意的是,为了保证根据光电信号来控制模式切换的准确性,无论控制器30基于上述光电信号判定当前气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,若要根据上述的判定结果进一步进行模式切换控制,还需要检测上述的判定结果能够维持的时长,利用上述时长的始末两个时间点处气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10之间的位置关系变化来确定气溶胶生成制品200是否安装于支撑组件10,从而降低出现误识别的概率。例如,在第三预设时长的起始时间点检测到气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10固定连接,但在第三预设时长的终止时间点检测到气溶胶生成制品200与支撑组件10未固定连接,即可以确定气溶胶生成制品200已经从支撑组件10上被拆下,此时为了保证气溶胶生成设备100的使用安全,控制器30控制气溶胶生成装置100重新进入识别模式,上述第三预设时长可以是0s~3s范围内的任意值。
如此,本申请能够气溶胶生成设备100处于正常工作模式的情况下,将多组激光器分作检测激光发射与反射光接收两种用途,利用在光电效应中接受反射光的激光器所产生的光电信号来判断当前气溶胶生成制品200是否就位,并进一步地在气溶胶生成制品200被拆下的情况下控制气溶胶生成设备100重新进入识别状态,从而在气溶胶生成制品200从气溶胶生成设备100上拆下时实现气溶胶生成设备100的自动停止,无需用户额外操作,提高系统的操作便利性与安全性。
