The random number generator in the present invention can be generated in response to the user pressing a key, for example, a random number is generated every time the user presses a key.

Preferably, the random number generator is a sensor, which is used to sense an external signal and convert the sensed signal into an electrical signal. The external signal can be at least one of a pressure signal, an acoustic signal, an optical signal, an electrical signal or an airflow signal. One or a combination thereof, the random number is obtained by using the numerical value of a physical quantity generated by a user's random action sensed by the sensor as a source of the random number. At this moment, the sensor and the random number generator are combined into one, that is, the sensor itself is the random number generator.

Alternatively, the electronic cigarette indicator light control system further includes a sensor that exists independently of the random number generator, and the sensor transmits the electrical signal to the random number generator, and the random number generator receives the sensor based on The electrical signal is used to generate a natural number at random and send the number to the main control chip for calculation.

The number of the electronic cigarette indicator lights is a natural number M, the main control chip divides the natural number randomly generated by the random number generator by M to get the remainder, and controls the indicator lights according to the following rules: when the remainder is 1 to M-1, The remainder is how many indicator lights are on, and when the remainder is 0, all M indicator lights are on. For example, the number of the electronic cigarette indicator lights is six, and the main control chip divides the natural number randomly generated by the random number generator by six to get the remainder, and controls the indicator lights according to the following rules: when the remainder is 1 to 5, The remainder is how many indicator lights are on, and when the remainder is 0, all six indicator lights are on.

The above-mentioned technical features of the present invention can be freely combined under the condition of no contradiction.

The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

The control system provided by the present invention makes the quantity or color of the indicator lights random, and because of its unpredictability and uncontrollability, the randomness will increase the playfulness and interest of the consumers, and bring joy to the consumers who use it. Bring new fun, effectively improve the consumer experience.

Real life is full of cases where randomness is used to decide things. The most common types are odd-even guessing or ratio guessing in various chess games, dice throwing in various multiplayer board games, and various decision entertainments. Hammer-scissors-cloth games, lottery lottery lottery numbers, random ordering in restaurants, lottery, etc., are full of randomness and fun, and the present invention can be used.

In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, based on the signal value measured by the sensor, for example, the vibration pressure value generated when the user taps the table with the electronic cigarette appliance, the airflow pressure difference value generated by the user's puffing action, the user coughing at the electronic cigarette appliance Generated decibel values, etc., to generate a random number, and then control the on-off or color of the indicator light, which greatly improves user participation and fun.

Description of drawings

Figure 1 is a schematic framework of a control system for an electronic cigarette indicator light based on a random number generator.

FIG. 2 is a schematic circuit diagram of Embodiment 1.

Reference signs: 1 - sensor, 2 - random number generator, 3 - main control chip, 4 - indicator light, 5 - indicator light drive.

Detailed ways

The content of the present invention will be further described below through specific embodiments.

Example 1

This embodiment is equivalent to installing an "electronic dice" on the electronic cigarette.

As shown in Figure 2, a control system of an electronic cigarette indicator light based on a random number generator, the control system includes: a sensor 1, a random number generator 2, a main control chip 3, and an LED indicator light 4;

The sensor is a vibration sensor 1 .

When the shock sensor 1 is subjected to vibration or knocking, the signal can be converted into an electrical signal and transmitted to the random number generator 2 . The content of the signal transmission is not limited. It can simply control whether the random number generator is started or not in the ON/OFF mode, and one will be randomly generated when it is started; it can also pass the specific detected vibration pressure value to the random number generator. The generator randomly generates a natural number based on the vibration pressure value through operation with specific rules or non-specific rules.

After receiving the electrical signal, the random number generator 2 generates a random natural number m, and transmits m to the main control chip.

The main control chip performs an operation on m, and the operation method is to divide it by 6 to find the remainder, and obtain the remainder n.

The number of LED lights is 6. When the remainder is 1 to 5, several indicator lights are on, and when the remainder is 0, all six indicator lights are on.

Of course, the sensor 1 can also be omitted, and the random number generator is activated purely by the user pressing a certain key.

The corresponding principle frame diagram and circuit diagram of the control system are shown in Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 , of course, this is only exemplary, and other equivalent methods are completely possible.

Example 2

This embodiment is equivalent to installing an electronic version of the "hammer-scissors-cloth" generator on the electronic cigarette.

As shown in Figure 2, a control system for an electronic cigarette indicator light based on a random number generator, the control system includes: a sensor 1, a random number generator 2, a main control chip 3, and an indicator light 4;

The sensor is an acceleration sensor 1 .

When the user shakes the e-cigarette and stops suddenly (this action simulates the action when the user makes a gesture, which is very in line with the user's habits), the sensor converts the acceleration signal at the time of the sudden stop into an electrical signal and transmits it to the random number generator 2 .

After receiving the electrical signal, the random number generator 2 generates a random natural number m, and transmits m to the main control chip.

The main control chip performs an operation on m, and the operation method is to divide it by 3 to obtain the remainder, and obtain the remainder n.

The number of LED lights is 3. When the remainder is 1, 1 indicator light is on, when the remainder is 2, 2 indicator lights are on, and when the remainder is 0, all 3 indicator lights are on. Users can pre-arrange 1 One light on represents a hammer, two lights on represent scissors, and three lights on represent a step, which determines the winner or loser. This agreement can be set by the user.

The specific implementation above is only an example to illustrate the present invention, but it is not intended to limit the present invention in any way. In fact, based on the creativity of the present invention, technicians can also set more playing methods and corresponding random number generation schemes and indicator light control schemes. Therefore, the actual protection scope of the present invention should be based on the highly abstract summary in the claims.
