以下請同時參照圖1~圖3。顯示模組118耦接到控制晶片115。控制晶片115可透過顯示模組118以顯示智慧電鍋100的狀態或是烹調結果。舉例來說，假設第一按鍵117_1對應到智慧電鍋100的保溫功能。因此，使用者可透過按壓第一按鍵117_1或是透過外部行動裝置900的APP 910點選保溫設定以使智慧電鍋100執行保溫功能時。於此情況下，控制晶片115除了可經由通信模組119的發送器119_2而將智慧電鍋100的狀態透過輸出 信號OUT傳送到外部行動裝置900並將智慧電鍋100的目前狀態(亦即為「保溫」狀態)顯示在狀態顯示區域912之外，控制晶片115還可透過顯示模組118顯示「保溫」，以讓使用者確認或得知智慧電鍋100的目前狀態為保溫狀態。如此一來，可提高智慧電鍋100使用上的方便性。Please refer to Figure 1 to Figure 3 below. Display module 118 is coupled to control wafer 115. The control chip 115 can pass through the display module 118 to display the state of the smart pot 100 or the cooking result. For example, assume that the first button 117_1 corresponds to the heat preservation function of the smart pot 100. Therefore, the user can click the first button 117_1 or the APP 910 of the external mobile device 900 to select the insulation setting to enable the smart pot 100 to perform the heat preservation function. In this case, the control chip 115 can pass the state of the smart pot 100 through the transmitter 119_2 of the communication module 119. The signal OUT is transmitted to the external mobile device 900 and the current state of the smart pot 100 (ie, the "insulated" state) is displayed outside the status display area 912, and the control chip 115 can also display "insulation" through the display module 118. In order for the user to confirm or know that the current state of the smart pot 100 is in a warm state. In this way, the convenience of using the smart electric pot 100 can be improved.
加熱器114_1、114_2配置在智慧電鍋100內側的底部以對智慧電鍋100的內部進行加熱。其中加熱器114_1、114_2可分別為不同功率的加熱器，例如400瓦與300瓦，但本新型創作不限於此。電源管理電路113包括繼電器113_1與蜂鳴器113_2。繼電器113_1耦接在控制晶片115與加熱器114_1、114_2之間。溫度感測器116耦接到控制晶片115，且配置在智慧電鍋100內側的底部以感測智慧電鍋100內部的溫度，從而產生溫度感測信號TS。控制晶片115根據控制信號CS(或選擇信號SS)與溫度感測信號TS以產生開關信號LS，且繼電器113_1根據開關信號LS以控制加熱器114_1、114_2的啟閉，從而使智慧電鍋100的內部的溫度維持在一設定值。蜂鳴器(buzzer)113_2可在智慧電鍋100開始加熱或結束加熱時發出提示音以提示使用者。其中，溫度感測器116可例如是熱敏電阻，而繼電器113_1可例如是電磁式繼電器或是固態式繼電器，但本新型創作並不限於此。除此之外，本新型創作亦不限制加熱器的數目，加熱器的數目端視實際應用/設計需求而定。The heaters 114_1 and 114_2 are disposed at the bottom inside the smart pot 100 to heat the inside of the smart pot 100. The heaters 114_1, 114_2 may be heaters of different powers, for example, 400 watts and 300 watts, but the novel creation is not limited thereto. The power management circuit 113 includes a relay 113_1 and a buzzer 113_2. The relay 113_1 is coupled between the control wafer 115 and the heaters 114_1, 114_2. The temperature sensor 116 is coupled to the control wafer 115 and disposed at the bottom inside the smart pot 100 to sense the temperature inside the smart pot 100, thereby generating a temperature sensing signal TS. The control chip 115 generates a switching signal LS according to the control signal CS (or the selection signal SS) and the temperature sensing signal TS, and the relay 113_1 controls the opening and closing of the heaters 114_1, 114_2 according to the switching signal LS, thereby making the smart electric pot 100 The internal temperature is maintained at a set value. The buzzer 113_2 can emit a beep to prompt the user when the smart electric kettle 100 starts heating or ends heating. The temperature sensor 116 can be, for example, a thermistor, and the relay 113_1 can be, for example, an electromagnetic relay or a solid state relay, but the novel creation is not limited thereto. In addition, the novel creation does not limit the number of heaters, and the number of heaters depends on the actual application/design requirements.
舉例來說，當使用者使用智慧電鍋100以對食材進行加 熱烹煮時，控制晶片115可透過繼電器113_1來啟動加熱器114_1、114_2，並透過溫度感測信號TS以感測智慧電鍋100的內部的溫度。當溫度感測信號TS指示智慧電鍋100的內部的溫度小於或等於一設定溫度時(例如100℃)，控制晶片115可持續保持加熱器114_1、114_2的加熱狀態。直到溫度感測信號TS指示智慧電鍋100的內部的溫度大於設定溫度時(例如100℃)或是持續在設定溫度(例如100℃)達一設定時間(例如10分鐘)時，代表此加熱烹煮程序已經完成。此時，控制晶片115可透過繼電器113_1來停止加熱器114_1、114_2的加熱運作，或是讓智慧電鍋100進入保溫狀態。For example, when the user uses the smart electric pot 100 to add the ingredients During hot cooking, the control wafer 115 can activate the heaters 114_1, 114_2 through the relay 113_1 and pass the temperature sensing signal TS to sense the temperature of the interior of the smart pot 100. When the temperature sensing signal TS indicates that the temperature inside the smart pot 100 is less than or equal to a set temperature (for example, 100 ° C), the control wafer 115 can continuously maintain the heating state of the heaters 114_1, 114_2. When the temperature sensing signal TS indicates that the temperature inside the smart pot 100 is greater than the set temperature (for example, 100 ° C) or continues to be at the set temperature (for example, 100 ° C) for a set time (for example, 10 minutes), it represents the heating The cooking process has been completed. At this time, the control wafer 115 can stop the heating operation of the heaters 114_1, 114_2 through the relay 113_1, or let the smart electric pot 100 enter the heat preservation state.
在本新型創作的上述實施例中，使用者可透過外部行動裝置900的APP 910或是透過按鍵模組117來對智慧電鍋100進行操控，然而本新型創作並不限於此。在本新型創作的一實施例中，使用者還可透過外部行動裝置900的APP 910以自雲端資料庫下載食譜，並將下載的食譜透過外部行動裝置900的APP 910傳送給智慧電鍋100。如此一來，智慧電鍋100中的控制晶片115可根據所接收到的食譜執行一自動化烹調流程以完成此食譜的料理。以下將進行詳細的說明。In the above-mentioned embodiment of the present invention, the user can control the smart electric pot 100 through the APP 910 of the external mobile device 900 or through the button module 117. However, the novel creation is not limited thereto. In an embodiment of the present invention, the user can download the recipe from the cloud database through the APP 910 of the external mobile device 900, and transmit the downloaded recipe to the smart electric kettle 100 through the APP 910 of the external mobile device 900. In this way, the control wafer 115 in the smart pot 100 can perform an automated cooking process according to the received recipe to complete the cooking of the recipe. A detailed description will be given below.
如圖2所示，儲存模組115_1耦接到控制晶片115且用以儲存複數個預設指令CMD_1~CMD_n。其中，預設指令CMD_1~CMD_n分別對應到智慧電鍋100的上述多種烹調功能，例如開始功能、保溫功能、至少一預約功能、至少一加熱模式功 能或是取消功能等等。換句話說，預設指令CMD_1~CMD_n可分別為開始指令、保溫指令、至少一預約指令、至少一加熱模式指令或是取消指令等等。As shown in FIG. 2, the storage module 115_1 is coupled to the control chip 115 and configured to store a plurality of preset commands CMD_1~CMD_n. The preset commands CMD_1~CMD_n respectively correspond to the plurality of cooking functions of the smart electric kettle 100, such as a start function, a heat preservation function, at least one reservation function, and at least one heating mode function. Can or cancel the function and so on. In other words, the preset commands CMD_1~CMD_n may be a start command, a warm hold command, at least one reservation command, at least one heating mode command or a cancel command, and the like, respectively.
當使用者透過外部行動裝置900的APP 910將食譜傳送給智慧電鍋100並指示智慧電鍋100開始此食譜的烹調時，控制晶片115可根據與上述食譜相關聯的控制信號CS以讀取儲存模組115_1中的預設指令CMD_1~CMD_n的至少一者(例如預設指令CMD_1~CMD_3)。接著，控制晶片可依序地執行所讀取的預設指令(例如預設指令CMD_1~CMD_3)以控制智慧電鍋100進行上述食譜的烹調。When the user transmits the recipe to the smart pot 100 through the APP 910 of the external mobile device 900 and instructs the smart pot 100 to start cooking of the recipe, the control wafer 115 can read and store according to the control signal CS associated with the recipe described above. At least one of the preset commands CMD_1~CMD_n in the module 115_1 (for example, preset commands CMD_1~CMD_3). Then, the control wafer can sequentially execute the read preset instructions (for example, preset instructions CMD_1~CMD_3) to control the smart pot 100 to perform cooking of the above recipe.
舉例來說，假設A食譜的烹調步驟是：(1)浸泡10分鐘、(2)大火加熱煮沸、(3)煮沸後小火持續蒸煮30分鐘、(4)保溫，且預設指令CMD_1~CMD_4分別為開始指令、大火加熱模式指令、小火加熱模式指令及保溫指令。For example, suppose the cooking steps of the A recipe are: (1) soak for 10 minutes, (2) heat to boil, (3) boil for 30 minutes after boiling, (4) heat preservation, and preset instructions CMD_1~CMD_4 They are start command, fire heating mode command, small fire heating mode command and heat preservation command.
當智慧電鍋100開始A食譜的烹調時，控制晶片115可根據控制信號CS以讀取儲存模組115_1中的預設指令CMD_1~CMD_4。接著，控制晶片115執行預設指令CMD_1(即開始指令)以啟動智慧電鍋，並開始計時。待計時時間達到10分之後，控制晶片115接著執行CMD_2(即大火加熱模式指令)以控制智慧電鍋100進入大火加熱模式，此時，控制晶片115可透過繼電器113_1來將加熱器114_1、114_2全部開啟以使智慧電鍋100內的食材快速加熱至沸騰(即100℃)。當控制晶片115透過溫度感 測信號TS而判斷智慧電鍋100內的食材已加熱至沸騰時(即100℃)時，控制晶片115執行CMD_3(即小火加熱模式指令)，從而透過繼電器113_1以關閉部份的加熱器(例如關閉加熱器114_1且持續開啟加熱器114_2)，並開始計時。待計時時間達到30分之後，控制晶片115接著執行CMD_4(即保溫指令)以控制智慧電鍋100進入保溫模式。此時控制晶片115可透過繼電器113_1以關閉或開啟加熱器114_1、114_2，從而使智慧電鍋100內部的溫度保持在保溫模式的設定溫度(例如60℃)。When the smart pot 100 starts the cooking of the A recipe, the control chip 115 can read the preset commands CMD_1~CMD_4 in the storage module 115_1 according to the control signal CS. Next, the control wafer 115 executes a preset command CMD_1 (ie, a start command) to activate the smart pot and start timing. After the time count reaches 10 minutes, the control wafer 115 then executes CMD_2 (ie, the fire heating mode command) to control the smart electric pot 100 to enter the large fire heating mode. At this time, the control wafer 115 can pass the relay 113_1 to the heaters 114_1, 114_2. Turn on to quickly heat the ingredients in the smart pot 100 to boiling (ie, 100 ° C). When the control wafer 115 passes through the temperature sense When the signal TS is measured and it is judged that the food in the smart electric pot 100 has been heated to boiling (ie, 100 ° C), the control wafer 115 executes CMD_3 (ie, a small fire heating mode command), thereby passing through the relay 113_1 to turn off part of the heater ( For example, the heater 114_1 is turned off and the heater 114_2 is continuously turned on, and timing is started. After the time to reach 30 minutes, the control wafer 115 then executes CMD_4 (ie, the warm-up command) to control the smart pot 100 to enter the keep-alive mode. At this time, the control wafer 115 can pass through the relay 113_1 to turn off or turn on the heaters 114_1, 114_2, so that the temperature inside the smart pot 100 is maintained at the set temperature of the heat retention mode (for example, 60 ° C).

Flash memory...etc. However, this new creation is not limited to this. In addition, the storage module 115_1 may also be a memory circuit built into the control chip 115. Alternatively, the control wafer 115 can be implemented using a micro-processor, an ASIC or a programmable logic gate array (FPGA).
綜上所述，本新型創作實施例中的智慧電鍋包括了通信模組，可讓使用者透過行動裝置的APP來進行遠端操控。除此之外，使用者還可透過行動裝置的APP以自雲端資料庫下載食譜，並將下載的食譜透過行動裝置的APP傳送給智慧電鍋。如此一來，智慧電鍋可根據所接收到的食譜執行一自動化烹調流程以完成此食譜的料理。因此可提升智慧電鍋使用上的靈活性與便利性。In summary, the smart electric cooker in the novel creation embodiment includes a communication module, which allows the user to perform remote control through the APP of the mobile device.
