DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

The technical proposals in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present application.

The terms “first” and “second” are only used for descriptive purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of technical features.

In the drawings, elements with like structures have the same reference signs.

Referring to FIG. 1, in this embodiment, the method for controlling the heating of multi-taste and multi-pin heating wires is used for controlling the heating of the heating wire in an atomizing core structure. The atomizing core structure in this embodiment includes a mounting base, an oil-guiding cotton, a first electrode 11, a second electrode 12, a third electrode 13, and a plurality of heating wires. The mounting base is hollow, and the oil-guiding cotton is wrapped around the mounting base for fixing, and the heating wire mesh structure is arranged in a ring structure, and it is closely fitted to an inside of the oil-guiding cotton. The first electrode 11 and the third electrode 13 are disposed close to each other, and the second electrode 12 is disposed on the other side, and is electrically connected to the first electrode 11 and the third electrode 13 respectively. Raw oil is adsorbed on the oil-guiding cotton. A plurality of heating wires are evenly arranged in the heating wire mesh structure, and two ends of a part of the heating wires are connected with the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 12 respectively, and two ends of the other part of the heating wires are respectively connected with the second electrode 12 and the third electrode 13 respectively. By dividing into two parts, the atomizing core structure can have at least two operating states in the same operating mode or in different operating modes. The heating wire in the corresponding operating state is heated up and atomizes the raw oil, so as to meet the temperature requirements of different tastes, improving the taste and effect of use.

The cross-sectional area of at least one of the heating wires 14a is different from that of the other heating wires 14a, and the heat generated by the heating wires 14a is adjusted by changing the cross-sectional area of the heating wires, so as to improve the compatibility of use. Referring to FIG. 2, the length of at least one of the heating wires 14b is different from that of the other heating wires 14b, and the heat generated by the heating wires 14b is adjusted by changing the length of the heating wires, so as to improve the compatibility of use. These two methods can improve the atomization effect of the liquid, slow down the carbonization phenomenon, and increase the service life of the heating wires.

In this embodiment, referring to FIG. 3, the method for controlling the heating of multi-taste and multi-pin heating wires includes the following steps:

In step S110: an atomizing core structure including heating wires is provided, all operating states of atomizing core structure under different operating modes are obtained, at least one of the heating wires operates under a same operating state, and the atomizing core structure has at least two operating states in the same operating mode;

In step S120: a current service life of the heating wires is determined based on an operating time of the heating wires; and

In step S130: based on the current service life of the heating wires and a current operating mode of the atomizing core structure, a current operating state of the heating wires in the current operating mode is determined, so that current service lives of all of the heating wires are similar.

The method for controlling the heating of multi-taste and multi-pin heating wires in the present embodiment will be described in detail below.

Referring to FIG. 4, in step S110, the atomizing core structure includes at least two heating wires, all operating states of the atomizing core structure under different operating modes are obtained, at least one of the heating wires is in operation under the same operating state. Different operating modes indicate that the flow rates in the atomizing core structure are different, and a change in the flow rate will lead to a change in the temperature in the flue of the atomizing core structure, so that the temperature cannot reach the optimum temperature for atomizing the raw liquid, thus resulting in a poor taste.

In order to solve this problem, a corresponding operating state is set for a corresponding operating mode, and a corresponding heating wire generates heat under each operating state, so as to ensure that the temperature in the flue can be kept at the optimal temperature under different flow rates, so as to improve the effect of atomization and the taste. In the same operating mode, the atomizing core structure has at least two operating states. This helps to balance the current service lives of all heating wires and extend the duration of a corresponding operating mode, while ensuring the taste.

In step S111, a preset current service life of each heating wire and a stored function for calculating the current service life of the heating wires based on the operating time of the heating wires are obtained, for updating the current service life of each heating wire.

In step S120, the operating temperature of the atomizing core structure is obtained, and the current service life of the heating wires is determined based on the operating time of the heating wires and the operating temperature.

The current service life of each heating wire is preset and the function for calculating the current service life of the heating wire based on the operating time of the heating wire is stored in the atomizing core structure. When in use, the atomizing core structure can directly calculate the current service life of the heating wire in operation from the operating time of the heating wire through the function and the preset current service life of the heating wire, and the calculated current service life of the heating wire overwrites the current service life of the heating wire before the calculation. Updating in real-time facilitates controlling the current service life of the heating wire, so that the current service lives of all heating wires are similar.

Obviously, the required temperature is different in different operating modes, and the different temperature also affects the service life of the heating wires. The function between the temperature and the loss of the service life of the heating wire may be stored, and the loss of the service life of the heating wire can be calculated according to the temperature in different operating modes. Then, the current service life of the heating wire is determined according to the operating time of the heating wire and the operating temperature of the atomizing core structure. Therefore, the current service life of the heating wire is more reliable while ensuring the taste.

Referring to FIG. 5, in step S130, the current operating state of the atomizing core structure in the current operating mode is determined based on the current service life of the heating wire and the operating mode of the atomizing core structure, so that the current service lives of all the heating wires are similar.

The general method for determining the current operating state of the atomizing core structure in the current operating mode is: all operating states in the current operating mode are obtained, each operating state corresponds to at least one heating wire, the current service life of the heating wire in each operating state is obtained, and the operating state corresponding to the heating wire with the largest current service life is selected as the current operating state in the current operating mode.

The selection of the current operating state of the atomizing core structure in the current operating mode is described in detail below.

In step S131, when each operating state corresponds to one heating wire, the current service life of the heating wire in the operating state is updated in real-time based on the current service life and the operating time of the heating wire. In the plurality of operating states in the current operating mode, each operating state individually corresponds to one heating wire. When in use, the current service life of the heating wire in the current operating state in the current operating mode is updated in real-time according to the current service life, the temperature, and the operating time of its own, and is compared with the current service lives of the heating wires in the other operating states.

When the current service life of the heating wire in the current operating state is smaller than a largest current service life of the heating wires in the other operating states in the current operating mode, and the difference between the two current service lives exceeds a preset first threshold, the operating state corresponding to the heating wire with the largest current service life amongst the heating wires in the other operating states in the current operating mode is selected as the current operating state. When the current service life of the heating wire in the current operating state is detected to reduce to a certain level and exceeds the preset first threshold, the current operating state in the current operating mode of the atomizing core structure is switched, and the operating state corresponding to the heating wire with the largest current service life amongst the heating wires in the other operating states in the current operating mode is selected as the current operating state. The current service lives of all heating wires are similar while ensuring the taste.

In step S132, when at least one operating state corresponds to two or more heating wires, a corresponding average current service life is obtained based on the current service lives of all of the heating wires in each operating state, and the operating state corresponding to the heating wires with the largest average current service life amongst all of the heating wires in each operating state is taken as the current operating state.

One operating state may correspond to one heating wire, two heating wires, or a plurality of heating wires. When there are at least two operating states in the current operating mode, if these operating states include more than two heating wires, the respective average current service life of each operating state is calculated, these average current service lives are compared with each other, and the operating state corresponding to the heating wires with the largest average current service life is selected, so as to use this operating state as the current operating state; if an operating state includes only one heating wire, then the current service life of the heating wire is taken as the average current service life of this operating state.

In order to improve the accuracy of determination and ensure that the current service life of all the heating wires is similar, step S133 and step S134 further analyze the conditions of the heating wires in various operating states in the current operating mode.

In step S133, based on the average current service life of all of the heating wires in each operating state, the heating wires with the largest average current service life and the heating wires with the smallest current service life are determined, and the first difference is calculated; when the first difference is greater than a preset second threshold, the operating state corresponding to the heating wires with the largest average current service life is taken as the current operating state.

When the calculated first difference is greater than the preset second threshold, it means that in the current operating mode, the average current service lives of the heating wires in the plurality of operating states are significantly different. In order to balance the service lives of the heating wires, the operating state corresponding to the heating wires with the largest average current service life is taken as the current operating state, so that the current service lives of all heating wires are similar.

In step S134, when the first difference is less than or equal to the second threshold, a second difference is calculated based on the heating wire with the smallest current service life in the largest average current service life and the heating wire with the smallest current service life in the smallest average current service life, and when the second difference is greater than a preset third threshold, the operating state corresponding to the heating wires with the largest average current service life in the other operating states is taken as the current operating state of the atomizing core structure in the current operating mode; returning to step S133 when the second difference is less than or equal to the second threshold.

The above manner of determining the current operating state is based on calculating the first difference between the largest average current service life and the smallest average current service life in the average current service lives of each operating state, and the first difference less than or equal to the preset second threshold means that in the current operating mode, the difference in the average current service lives of the heating wires in the several operating states is small, and the current service life of the heating wire in each operating state cannot be demonstrated. Therefore, the second difference is calculated based on the smallest current service life in the largest average current service life and the smallest current service life in the smallest average current service life.

The second difference greater than the preset third threshold indicates that the current service lives of the plurality of heating wires in the largest average current service life are significantly different. Since the second difference is less than or equal to the preset second threshold and greater than the preset third threshold, it can be understood that the smallest current service life of the heating wire in the largest average current service life is less than the smallest current service life of the heating wire in the smallest average current service life. Therefore, in order to ensure that the current service lives of the heating wires are similar, the operating state corresponding to the heating wires with the largest average current service life in the other operating states is selected as the current operating state. When the heating wire in the current operating state is in use, the corresponding current service life will also be updated in real-time, and the second difference will also change accordingly. When the second difference is less than or equal to the second threshold, return to step S133, and then the current operating state is determined according to the conditions in step S133.

Referring to step S131, if the current service life of heating wire A1 is 50%, the current service life of heating wire B1 is 45%, and the first threshold is 10%, then the difference between the current service lives of heating wire A1 and the heating wire B1 is 5%, which is less than 10%, thus the first operating state corresponding to the heating wire A1 is selected as the current operating state. When the heating wire A1 is in use, the current service life is also decreasing.

The current service life of the heating wire A3 is 80%, the current service life of the heating wire B3 is 40%, the current service life of the heating wire C3 is 60%, the current service life of the heating wire D3 is 50%, and the first threshold is 10%, the second threshold is 8%.
