Abstract

Disclosed is an authorization control method of convenient food and a digital menu. A database stores digital menu information, convenient food specification information, digital menu instantiation information and convenient food product information. The convenient food product information and digital menu instantiation information in the database are processed so as to generate convenient food product information unit and digital menu instantiation information unit. By creating the convenient food product information and the digital menu instantiation information, the invention can manage the usage authorization of the convenient food specification information and the digital menu information, while simultaneously associating the convenient food product information and the digital menu instantiation information, thus increasing the convenience in using convenient food.

Claims (25)

1. An authorization control method of convenient food and a digital menu, comprising the following steps:

(1) establishing a database on a local server which stores digital menu information, convenient food specification information corresponding to the digital menu information, one or more digital menu instantiation information generated according to the digital menu information, and one or more convenient food product information generated according to the convenient food specification information;

(2) processing the convenient food product information and the digital menu instantiation information, respectively, on a local server so as to generate a convenient food product information unit and a digital menu instantiation information unit, respectively;

(3) presetting on a local server corresponding digital menu instantiation information in the convenient food product information unit and/or presetting corresponding convenient food product information in the digital menu instantiation information unit;

(4) validating on a local server information in the convenient food product information unit, and granting usage authorization of digital menu instantiation information corresponding to the convenient food product information after the information is validated as being legitimate, wherein the digital menu instantiation information comprises a sequence of executable commands to be executed by a smart cooking appliance to prepare a convenience food product for consumption; and

(5) resolving and running the digital menu instantiation information on a smart cooking appliance and completing automatic cooking of a convenient food product by the smart cooking appliance;

wherein automatic cooking of a convenient food product by the smart cooking appliance is an automatic process without user input.

2. The authorization control method according to claim 1 , wherein processing the information comprises digitally processing the convenient food product information and the digital menu instantiation information, respectively, so as to generate convenient food product recognition information and digital menu instantiation recognition information, respectively.

3. The authorization control method according to claim 2 , wherein the digital menu instantiation recognition information corresponding to the convenient food product information is built in the convenient food product information unit, and/or the convenient food product recognition information corresponding to the digital menu instantiation information is built in the digital menu instantiation information unit.

4. The authorization control method according to claim 2 , wherein before step (3), the method further comprises: processing each convenient food specification information and each digital menu information in the database, respectively, so as to generate a convenient food specification information unit and a digital menu information unit, respectively; wherein processing the information comprises digitally processing the convenient food specification information and the digital menu information, respectively, so as to generate convenient food specification recognition information and digital menu recognition information, respectively.

5. The authorization control method according to claim 4 , wherein each of the convenient food specification recognition information, the convenient food product recognition information, the digital menu recognition information and the digital menu instantiation recognition information are character code or graphic code depicted in machine language.

6. The authorization control method according to claim 4 , wherein the convenient food specification information corresponds to and associates with the convenient food product information, the convenient food specification information corresponds to and associates with the digital menu information, and the digital menu information corresponds to and associates with the digital menu instantiation information.

7. The authorization control method according to claim 6 , wherein:

the associated and corresponding relationship between the convenient food specification information and the convenient food product information is a relationship in which one convenient food specification information corresponds to one or more convenient food product information; the associated and corresponding relationship is realized by embedding each of the convenient food product recognition information generated based on the convenient food specification information into the convenient food specification information unit and/or embedding the convenient food specification recognition information into each of the convenient food product information unit;

the associated and corresponding relationship between the convenient food specification information and the digital menu information is realized by embedding the digital menu recognition information corresponding to the convenient food specification information into the convenient food specification information unit and/or embedding the convenient food specification recognition information corresponding to the digital menu information into the digital menu information unit; and

the associated and corresponding relationship between the digital menu information and the digital menu instantiation information is a relationship in which one digital menu information corresponds one or more digital menu instantiation information; this associated and corresponding relationship is realized by embedding each of the digital menu instantiation recognition information generated based on the digital menu information into the digital menu information unit and/or embedding the digital menu recognition information into each of the digital menu instantiation information unit.

8. The authorization control method according to claim 1 , wherein validating comprises the following process:

obtaining the convenient food product information;

verifying the legitimacy of the convenient food product information;

calling out the convenient food product information unit corresponding to the convenient food product information via the convenient food product information after the convenient food product information is verified legitimate;

obtaining use authorization of the digital menu instantiation information corresponding to the convenient food product information via the convenient food product information unit.

9. The authorization control method according to claim 8 , wherein the convenient food product information is convenient food product recognition information, and the digital menu instantiation information is digital menu instantiation recognition information.

10. The authorization control method according to claim 9 , wherein the convenient food product information or the digital menu instantiation information is a character code or graphic code depicted in encrypted machine language.

11. The authorization control method according to claim 1 , wherein the use authorization of the digital menu instantiation information comprises partial or entire limitations on the times of downloading/using, the scope of downloading/using and the term of downloading/using the digital menu instantiation information.

12. The authorization control method according to claim 1 , wherein the digital menu instantiation information and the convenient food product information are generated automatically or generated upon a user's request.
