Heating inhaler and controlling method thereof
The present disclosure relates to a heating inhaler and a controlling method thereof. The method includes: the sensing element detecting a suction action, and if the sensing element detects the suction action within a first predetermined time period, the control circuit board controlling the power source to supply power to the atomizer for a second predetermined time period then stop supplying, wherein the indicating element displays a first state within the second predetermined time period until the power source stops supplying power to the atomizer, then the indicating element displays a second state. If the sensing element detects no suction action within the first predetermined time period, the control circuit board controlling the power source to stop supplying the electric power to the atomizer, and the indicating element displaying the second state.
1. A method of controlling a heating inhaler, wherein the heating inhaler comprises a power source configured to supply power to the heating inhaler, an atomizer detachably connected to the power source, a sensing element, an indicating element, and a control circuit board; the power source, the atomizer, the sensing element, and the indicating element are electrically coupled to the control circuit board when the atomizer is assembled to the power source; the method comprises: step S 101 : detecting, by the sensing element, a suction action, performing step S 102 upon detecting the suction action within a first predetermined time period; otherwise, performing step S 103 ;
step S 102 : controlling, by the control circuit board, the power source to supply power to the atomizer for a second predetermined time period, and then to stop supplying power to the atomizer, wherein the indicating element displays a first state within the second predetermined time period until the power source stops supplying power to the atomizer, then the indicating element displays a second state; and
step S 103 : controlling, by the control circuit board, the power source to stop supplying power to the atomizer, and displaying, by the indicating element, the second state; further comprising step S 203 : determining, by the control circuit board, a time interval between a time at which the atomizer is electrically coupled to the power source and the time at which the sensing element detects a suction acution in a previous time is greater than a third predetermined time period, performing the step S 101 upon determining that the time interval is greater than the third predetermined time period; otherwise, controlling, by the control circuit board, the power source to stop supplying a power to the atomizer, and the indicating element displaying a third state;
wherein the first predetermined time period ranges from 10 minutes to 20 minutes, the second predtermined time period ranges from 1.5 seconds to 2.5 seconds, and the third predetermined time period ranges from 25 minutes to 35 minutes.
2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indicating element comprises a state indicator lamp, the first state, the second state, and the third state indicate three operation states of the state indicator lamp, respectively.
3. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the second state indicates that the state indicator lamp is in an off state.
4. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the second state indicates that the state indicator lamp changes an emitting color thereof.
5. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indicating element flashes and switches between different states when an output voltage of the power source is less than 3.75 V.
6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the indicating element comprises a display screen.
