As an example, referring to fig. 2, the heating circuit 130 includes:
a first capacitor 131, a second capacitor 132, an electromagnetic heating element 133 and a first switch 134.
Wherein, the first switch 134 is connected in parallel with the first capacitor 131; a first end of the second capacitor 132 is connected with a first end of the first capacitor 131, and a second end of the second capacitor 132 is connected with a first end of the electromagnetic heating element 133; the first end of the second capacitor 132 is further connected to the power module 110; a second terminal of the electromagnetic heating element 133 is connected to a second terminal of the first capacitor 131 and ground, respectively.
The detection circuit 140 is connected in parallel with the electromagnetic heating element 133, and the detection circuit 140 is used for detecting an electric signal of the electromagnetic heating element 133.
In this embodiment, the first switch 134 is a MOS transistor, and may be implemented as another type of switch. The control module 120 is connected to the enable end of the MOS transistor, and the control module 120 can control the MOS transistor to be turned on or off, so as to control the electromagnetic heating element 133.
Specifically, when the MOS transistor is controlled to be turned on by the control module 120, the current output by the power module 110 and the alternating current on the electromagnetic heating element 133 and the second capacitor 132 flow through the first switch 134, the voltage across the first capacitor 131 is 0, when the MOS transistor is controlled to be turned off by the control module 120, the current output by the power module 110 and the alternating current on the electromagnetic heating element 133 and the second capacitor 132 charge the first capacitor 131 in a first-to-first manner, the first capacitor 131 starts to discharge as the alternating current enters a negative half cycle until the instantaneous absolute value of the alternating current is greater than the current output by the power module 110, and after the first capacitor 131 finishes discharging, the voltage across the first capacitor 131 is 0, that is, the voltage across the MOS transistor is 0. Then entering the next period, the MOS tube is conducted.
The heating circuit 130 belongs to class E, and in a period, the MOS transistor is turned on, the voltage on the MOS transistor is 0, and the current is not 0; the MOS tube is disconnected, the voltage on the MOS tube is not 0, and the current is 0, so that the MOS tube does not consume electric energy. Under the working state, the electromagnetic heating element 133 and the second capacitor 132 are always in the resonance state, the alternating-current voltage at the two ends of the electromagnetic heating element 133 is converted into a direct-current voltage signal suitable for being collected by the control module 120 through the detection circuit 140, and the control module 120 performs sampling through the detection circuit 140 to obtain the direct-current voltage signal of the electromagnetic heating element 133.

Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a graph illustrating the electric signal and the envelope acquired during the test process of the circuit shown in fig. 2. In fig. 3, the abscissa represents time, and the ordinate represents voltage (in a specific implementation, current), wherein each envelope represents a detected voltage or current waveform, and then a maximum value of each envelope is used to form a corresponding electrical signal (a direct current signal), where the electrical signal is a voltage signal. Fig. 3 shows that at the curie temperature point, the voltage signal has a inflection point (the time when the left trough is located), and the control module 120 determines the inflection point, which indicates that the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point. It is concluded that the voltage value at this point corresponds to the curie temperature of the electromagnetic heating element 1312. When the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature, the control module 120 controls the magnitude of the voltage signal applied to the two ends of the electromagnetic heating element 133 by controlling the on-time (duty ratio) of the MOS transistor, and simultaneously tests the temperature of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 through a temperature measuring instrument to find a corresponding curve of the temperature and the voltage. Finally, the control module 120 controls the temperature of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 by controlling the magnitude of the voltage signal applied across the electromagnetic heating element 133 according to the temperature/voltage curve.
Because alternating current signals are larger than direct current signals, the anti-interference capability is strong. Therefore, the present embodiment obtains more accurate data by detecting the ac signal of the electromagnetic heating element 137 compared with the dc signal in the detection circuit in the prior art, and at the same time, directly detecting the electromagnetic heating element 137 can avoid the influence caused by other devices or wires, and the detection result is reliable.
As an example, referring to fig. 4, the heating circuit 130 includes:
a third capacitor 135, a fourth capacitor 136, an electromagnetic heating element 137, a second switch 138 and a first resistor 139.
The second switch 138 is connected in parallel with the third capacitor 135; a first end of the fourth capacitor 136 is connected with a first end of the third capacitor 135, and a second end of the fourth capacitor 136 is connected with a first end of the electromagnetic heating element 137; the first end of the fourth capacitor 136 is further connected to the power module 110; a second terminal of the electromagnetic heating element 137 is connected to a second terminal of the third capacitor 135 and ground via a first resistor 139, respectively.
And a detection circuit 140 connected in parallel with the first resistor 139, wherein the detection circuit 140 is used for detecting the electric signal of the first resistor 139.
The control module 120 is further configured to obtain an electrical signal of the electromagnetic heating element 137 according to the electrical signal of the first resistor 139.
In this embodiment, the second switch 138 is a MOS transistor, and may be implemented by other types of switches. The control module 120 is connected to the enable end of the MOS transistor, and the control module 120 can control the MOS transistor to be turned on or off, so as to control the electromagnetic heating element 137.
Specifically, when the MOS transistor is controlled to be turned on by the control module 120, the current output by the power module 110 and the alternating current on the electromagnetic heating element 137 and the fourth capacitor 136 flow through the second switch 138, the voltage at two ends of the third capacitor 135 is 0, when the MOS transistor is controlled to be turned off by the control module 120, the current output by the power module 110 and the alternating current on the electromagnetic heating element 137 and the fourth capacitor 136 charge the third capacitor 135 in a first-order manner, the third capacitor 135 starts to discharge as the alternating current enters a negative half cycle until the instantaneous absolute value of the alternating current value is greater than the current output by the power module 110, and after the discharge of the third capacitor 135 is completed, the voltage at two ends of the third capacitor 135 is 0, that is, the voltage at two ends of the MOS transistor is 0. And then entering the next period, and conducting the MOS tube.
The heating circuit 130 belongs to class E, and in a period, the MOS transistor is turned on, the voltage on the MOS transistor is 0, and the current is not 0; the MOS tube is disconnected, the voltage on the MOS tube is not 0, and the current is 0, so that the MOS tube does not consume electric energy. In the working state, the electromagnetic heating element 137 and the fourth capacitor 136 are always in the resonance state.
Since the first resistor 139 is connected in series with the electromagnetic heating element 137 in the same circuit, the current passing through the electromagnetic heating element 137 is the same as the current passing through the first resistor 139. In this embodiment, the alternating current of the first resistor 139 is converted into an alternating voltage, the alternating voltage is converted into a direct voltage signal suitable for being collected by the control module 120 through the detection circuit 140, the control module 120 performs sampling through the detection circuit 140, and the control module 120 can perform conversion to obtain the direct voltage signal of the electromagnetic heating element 137.
In the using process, the control module 120 determines whether the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point according to the sampled voltage signal, and when the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point, the equivalent inductance and the equivalent resistance of the electromagnetic heating element 137 are significantly changed, and the voltage across the corresponding electromagnetic heating element 137 is significantly changed.
Referring to fig. 5, fig. 5 is a graph illustrating the electrical signal and envelope acquired during the test of the circuit shown in fig. 4. In fig. 5, the abscissa is time, and the ordinate is voltage (in an implementation, current may be collected), where each envelope is a detected voltage waveform, and then a maximum value of each envelope is used to form a corresponding electrical signal (dc signal), where the electrical signal is a voltage signal. Fig. 5 shows that at the curie temperature point, a voltage signal may have an inflection point (the time of the left trough may be low according to the variation trend, for example, the detected electrical signal first decreases and then increases, and at this time, it is considered that a discontinuity point/inflection point occurs), and the control module 120 determines the inflection point, which indicates that the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point. It is concluded that the voltage value at this time corresponds to the curie temperature of electromagnetic heating element 1312. When the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature, the control module 120 controls the magnitude of the voltage signal applied to the two ends of the electromagnetic heating element 137 by controlling the on-time (duty ratio) of the MOS transistor, and simultaneously tests the temperature of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 through a temperature measuring instrument to find a corresponding curve of the temperature and the voltage. Finally, the control module 120 controls the temperature of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 by controlling the magnitude of the voltage signal applied across the electromagnetic heating element 137 according to the temperature/voltage curve.
According to the above description, the present embodiment is different from the previous embodiment in that: the present embodiment indirectly obtains the voltage of the electromagnetic heating element 137 by detecting the voltage of the resistance connected in series with the electromagnetic heating element 137. The others are substantially the same.

The third switch 1313 is connected in parallel with the sixth capacitor 1311 and then connected in series with the electromagnetic heating element 1312; a first end of the fifth capacitor 1310 is connected to one end of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 far from the sixth capacitor 1311, and a second end of the fifth capacitor 1310 is respectively connected to one end of the sixth capacitor 1311 far from the electromagnetic heating element 1312 and ground.
And a detection circuit 140 for detecting an electrical signal of the electromagnetic heating element 1312.
The third switch 1313 may be a MOS transistor. When the control module 120 controls the third switch 1313 to be turned on, the dc current of the power module 110 and the ac current of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 and the fifth capacitor 1310 flow through the third switch 1313, the voltage across the sixth capacitor 1311 is 0, when the mcu controls the third switch 1313 to be turned off, the dc current of the power module 110 and the ac current of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 and the fifth capacitor 1310 charge the sixth capacitor 1311 first, and the sixth capacitor 1311 starts to discharge as the ac current enters a negative half cycle until the instantaneous value of the ac current is greater than the dc current of the power module 110, and when the sixth capacitor 1311 finishes discharging, the voltage across the sixth capacitor 1311 is 0, that is, the voltage across the third switch 1313 is 0. Then, the next period is entered, and the third switch 1313 is turned on.
The heating circuit 130 belongs to inverse class E, in one period, the third switch 1313 is turned on, the voltage on the third switch 1313 is 0, and the current is not 0; the third switch 1313 is turned off, the voltage across the third switch 1313 is not 0, and the current is 0, so no power is consumed across the third switch 1313. When the electromagnetic heating element 1312 and the fifth capacitor 1310 are always in a resonance state in an operating state, after the alternating voltage across the electromagnetic heating element 1312 passes through the detection power 140, the control module 120 may detect to obtain the alternating voltage across the electromagnetic heating element 1312 (in a specific implementation, the detection may also be performed by detecting a current).
Then, the control module 120 determines whether the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point according to the sampled voltage signal, and when the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point, the equivalent inductance and the equivalent resistance of the coil of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 may change significantly, and the voltage across the electromagnetic heating element 1312 may change significantly (the time when the left trough is located).
As shown in fig. 7, it is shown that an inflection point (abrupt change point) occurs in the voltage signal at the curie temperature point, and the control module 120 determines the inflection point, which indicates that the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point. It is concluded that the voltage value at this time corresponds to the curie temperature of electromagnetic heating element 1312. After the electromagnetic heating element 1312 reaches the curie temperature point, the control module 120 controls the magnitude of the voltage signal applied to the two ends of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 by controlling the on-time (duty ratio) of the third switch 1313, and simultaneously tests the temperature of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 through a temperature measuring instrument to find a corresponding curve of the temperature and the voltage. Finally, the control module 120 controls the temperature of the electromagnetic heating element 1312 by controlling the magnitude of the voltage signal applied across the electromagnetic heating element 1312 according to the temperature/voltage curve.
