6 : The smoking set according to claim 5 , wherein:
the controller is further configured to: after the cover covers the cavity, within a second preset time, stop controlling the driving apparatus to drive the cover to move relative to the cavity, so as to open the cavity.
7 : The smoking set according to claim 2 , wherein:
the first detection apparatus is further configured to output a cigarette pull-out signal, if it is detected that the cigarette is pulled out from the cavity after the heater completes heating; and the controller is further configured to acquire the cigarette pull-out signal, and control, according to the cigarette pull-out signal, the driving apparatus to drive the cover to move relative to the cavity, so as to cover the cavity.
8 : The smoking set according to claim 2 , wherein the second detection apparatus comprises a contact piece, a conductive column and a first detection circuit;
both the contact piece and the conductive column are provided upstream of the cavity, and the controller is electrically connected to the conductive column and the contact piece by using the first detection circuit; when the cigarette inserted into the cavity is not in place, the contact piece is not in contact with the conductive column, such that an open circuit through which no current passes is formed between the first detection circuit, the contact piece and the conductive column; and when the cigarette inserted into the cavity is in place, the contact piece is in contact with the conductive column, such that a close circuit through which a current passes is formed between the first detection circuit, the contact piece and the conductive column.
9 : The smoking set according to claim 1 , wherein the first detection apparatus comprises a first elastic sheet, a second elastic sheet and a second detection circuit;
one end of the first elastic sheet and one end of the second elastic sheet form a through hole for insertion or removal of the cigarette, and the controller is electrically connected to the first elastic sheet and the second elastic sheet by using the second detection circuit; when the cigarette is not inserted into the through hole, the end of the first elastic sheet and the end of the second elastic sheet are in contact with each other, such that a close circuit through which a current passes is formed between the second detection circuit, the first elastic sheet and the second elastic sheet; and when the cigarette is inserted into the through hole, the end of the first elastic sheet and the end of the second elastic sheet are not in contact with each other, such that an open circuit through which no current passes is formed between the second detection circuit, the first elastic sheet and the second elastic sheet.
10 : The smoking set according to claim 1 , wherein the driving apparatus comprises a rotary electromagnet, and the rotary electromagnet drives the cover to move along the lateral direction of the smoking set.
11 : A control method for the smoking set according to claim 1 , comprising:
acquiring a cigarette insertion signal output by a first detection apparatus; and controlling, according to the cigarette insertion signal, a driving apparatus to drive a cover to move relative to a cavity, so as to open the cavity such that the cigarette can be inserted into the cavity.
12 : The method according to claim 11 , further comprising:
acquiring a cigarette insertion fulfillment signal output by a second detection apparatus; and controlling a heater to start heating according to the cigarette insertion fulfillment signal.
