【Specific implementation mode】
The technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention is explained and illustrated with reference to the attached drawing of the embodiment of the present invention, but under It states embodiment to be merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and not all.Based on the implementation example in the implementation mode, those skilled in the art Obtained other embodiment without making creative work, belongs to protection scope of the present invention.
The detection precision of the differential water level sensor of water level of washing machine detection is currently used in addition to by its structure and structure Outer at some manufacturing tolerances influence of component itself, the variation of ambient temperature also results in the electrical ginseng of these components Number generates certain temperature drift, and (variation by the semiconductor device parameter caused by temperature change is to generate the master of null offset phenomenon Reason is wanted, therefore also referred to as null offset is temperature drift, abbreviation temperature drift).But with reference to Fig. 2,3, according to existing ceramic resonator with And the temperature drift TCR curves of polyester capacitance can be seen that the component temperature drift coefficient T CR for constituting level sensor device assembly in a fixation At a temperature of be constant.In addition, constituting hardness, tensile strength, the expansion and contraction of sensor membrane etc. in level sensor device assembly Parameter is also constant under a fixed temperature.There is above-mentioned analysis that can obtain:The frequency of oscillation of water level sensor is with temperature Variation be within controlled range, i.e., under the conditions of fixed temperature, the frequency of oscillation of same height of water level respective sensor is Constant.
However the generation of temperature drift phenomenon so that water level sensor oscillation circuit frequency is inclined under the air pressure that same water level is formed Difference, so as to cause the deviation of water level.Specifically:Why washing machine can be according to stagefrequency (water level sensor oscillation circuit Control water level frequency, below referred to as " stagefrequency "), be because stagefrequency is one-to-one relationship with water level, it is logical Often after washing machine booting, intelligent one water level of setting of user or program, and to be the water level being set change the MCU of washing machine It calculates onto a corresponding preset water level frequency, water level sensor detects current level frequency, and the letter that will be detected in real time Number feed back to MCU, if it is actually detected to stagefrequency reached preset water level frequency, just stop water inlet, at this time washing machine Actual water level be earlier set water level, this case where being ideally certainly.When actually using washing machine, environment The variation of temperature causes stagefrequency that deviation occurs, with reference to Fig. 4, it can be understood from the graph that under the conditions of same temperature, water level frequency Rate declines with the raising of water level, it is assumed that washing machine starts to set a water level before intaking, and with 30 DEG C of conditions of environment temperature The preset water level frequency curve f of lower setting30~h30Water level control is carried out, it is same if actual environment temperature is higher than 30 DEG C Under the conditions of setting water level, actual water level frequency is greater than preset water level frequency f30;When MCU AD Port detectings to actual water level frequency When rate, washing machine has reached preset water level at this time, but since MCU is still according to preset water level frequency curve f30~h30Carry out water Position control, continues plus water, until the AD Port detectings of MCU are to preset water level frequency f30Shi Caihui stops water inlet, and at this moment MCU just writes from memory Recognizing washing machine adds water to preset water level, but actual water level has been more than setting water level, and such case is reacted in user family, actual water level When higher compared with setting water level, not only waste water resource, while in washing machine peak level, since water level is higher, might have Water overflows steel ladle, flows to outside steel ladle, and safety accident occurs.
Similarly, if actual environment temperature is less than 30 DEG C, under the conditions of same setting water level, actual water level frequency is less than pre- If stagefrequency f30, washing machine is used at a temperature of the actual environment, when the AD Port detectings of MCU are to preset water level frequency f30 When, just give tacit consent to washing machine and added water to preset water level, but in fact, at this moment actual water level does not reach setting water in washing machine Position, such case are reacted in user family, when actual water level is relatively low compared with setting water level, influence the wash degree of clothing.
With reference to Fig. 5, washing machine is according to preset water level frequency curve f in the prior art30~h30Water level control is carried out, is being set The water level aberration curve figure actually generated after fixed different water levels, can be seen, five kinds of different water levels of machine set, all by Fig. 4 According to preset water level frequency curve f30~h30It is controlled, actual water level and setting water level deviation reach 10mm or so.
In view of the above-mentioned problems, the preferred embodiment of the present invention overcomes environment temperature to examine water level sensor using following scheme Know the influence of precision:Washing machine is in addition to original MCU (Microcontroller Unit, micro-control unit) and water level sensor Outside, temperature sensor is added;
The program setting stage:Under the conditions of specific environment temperature t, the default of the water level sensor is set by the MCU Water-level frequency curve ft~ht;Obtain actual environment temperature tNIn identical height of water level hNUnder the conditions of water level sensor frequency fN, By the water level sensor frequency fNWith the preset water level frequency f under the conditions of specific environment temperature ttIt is compared, obtains the water Position height hNUnder the conditions of frequency correction coefficients △ fN=fN-ft;The actual environment temperature tN, the height of water level hN, it is described Frequency correction coefficients △ fNIt is pre-stored in the MCU with one-to-one array form;
Service stage:The temperature sensor detects environment temperature, obtains actual environment temperature tN, according to actual environment temperature Spend tNCalling is pre-stored in corresponding frequency correction coefficients △ f in the MCUN, the MCU is according to frequency correction coefficients △ fNTo pre- If stagefrequency ftIt is corrected, the actual water level frequency f after being correctedN=ft+△fN, MCU control washing machine adds water To actual water level frequency fNCorresponding water level.
In simple terms, the scheme of the preferred embodiment of the present invention is exactly to obtain frequency by testing in washing machine production process Rate correction coefficient, washing machine in actual use, preset water level frequency is corrected by the frequency correction coefficients, is obtained To actual water level frequency, MCU controls the actual inflow of washing machine further according to actual water level frequency, can eliminate because of temperature shadow Actual water level deviation caused by the frequency departure that sound generates, and then achieve the purpose that accurately control water level.
According to the above method, washing machine inflow control in invention preferred embodiment shown in Figure 10 is referred in practical application Flow chart processed, controlling Method for inflow include the following steps:
S01 the height of water level of this washing) is set;
S02 currently practical environment temperature t) is obtained by temperature sensorN
S03) if temperature sensor detects currently practical environment temperature tNIt is different from specific environment temperature t, into S04) Step;If temperature sensor detects currently practical environment temperature tNIt is identical as specific environment temperature t, into S06) step;
S04 currently practical environment temperature t) is detected according to temperature sensorNCalling is pre-stored in corresponding frequency school in MCU Positive coefficient △ fN, according to frequency correction coefficients △ fNTo preset water level frequency ftIt is corrected, the actual water level frequency after being corrected Rate fN=ft+△fN
S05) correction terminates, and MCU control washing machines add water to actual water level frequency fNCorresponding water level;
S06) MCU controls washing machine adds water to preset water level frequency ftCorresponding water level.
In S01) in step, height of water level of this washing can intelligently be set by washing machine, can also be by user according to reality Border laundry amounts sets itself;
In S04) in step, before washing machine manufacture, prestored multiple arrays in MCU, in each array, actual environment Temperature tN, height of water level hN, frequency correction coefficients △ fNAll it is one-to-one, so-called one-to-one correspondence, that is, is mended in the present invention The program setting stage of compensation method, by different actual environment temperature tNIn identical height of water level hNUnder the conditions of water level sensor frequency Rate fNWith the preset water level frequency f under the conditions of specific environment temperature ttIt is compared, obtains height of water level hNUnder the conditions of frequency school Positive coefficient △ fN=fN- f, actual environment temperature tNDifference, water level sensor frequency fNAlso respective change is generated, then obtained by Frequency correction coefficients △ fNAlso corresponding variation is generated.
To be best understood from the principle of scheme described in the preferred embodiment of the present invention, explained below with more specific example Explanation:With reference to Fig. 9, the water level detection circuit assemblies constituted using components such as normal water level sensor, crystal oscillators (return by water level detection Road has belonged to existing public technology, other components and its application principle the present embodiment are no longer described in detail), and in existing water level detection The temperature detector circuit 7 being made of components such as above-mentioned temperature sensors 8 is added on the basis of circuit.
The program setting stage:Specific environment temperature t is set as 30 DEG C, the preset water level frequency of water level sensor is set by MCU Rate curve f30~h30;It is for statistical analysis by many experiments test data within the temperature range of -10 DEG C~50 DEG C, it obtains Actual environment temperature tNIn identical height of water level hNUnder the conditions of corresponding water level sensor frequency fNWith the default water under 30 DEG C of environment Bit frequency f30Deviation △ fN=fN-f30, △ fNAs frequency correction coefficients, the actual environment temperature measured in experimentation are real Test the actual environment temperature t measured in the processN, height of water level hN, frequency correction coefficients △ fNIt is pre- with one-to-one array form There are in MCU.
User's service stage:Under laundry apparatus standby state, intelligently one water level of setting, MCU are received for user or program After being instructed to the input, the setting water level of input is passed through into preset water level frequency curve f30~h30It is corresponding to be converted into some Preset water level frequency f30;Temperature sensor detects environment temperature in real time, obtains actual environment temperature tN, according to the actual environment temperature Spend tNCalling is pre-stored in corresponding frequency correction coefficients △ f in MCUN, to preset water level frequency f30It is corrected, obtains actual rings Border temperature tNUnder the conditions of stagefrequency fN=f30+△fN, with reference to the corresponding frequency correction system of multiple temperature ranges shown in Fig. 8 Number △ fNMaster meter can be seen that the present embodiment from the table and propose 14 groups of data, removes temperature sensor open circuit and short circuit Situation, in remaining 12 groups of valid data, actual environment temperature tNWith frequency correction coefficients △ fNIt is one-to-one, such as: The actual environment temperature t that temperature sensor detectsNBe 8 DEG C, according to master meter shown in Fig. 7 can learn 8 DEG C be distributed in [5 DEG C, 10 DEG C) temperature range in, the frequency correction coefficients △ f corresponding to the temperature rangeNFor -0.070KHz, then, through the △ fN Stagefrequency f after correctionN=f30+ (- 0.070KHz), then, MCU control inlet valve and open, until the AD Port detectings of MCU It is f to stagefrequencyN=f30Inlet valve is closed when+(- 0.070KHz), is f since MCU is according to the stagefrequency after correctionN =f30+ (- 0.070KHz) causes this deviation in control water level even if final actual water level is deviated with setting water level The reason of mainly factors such as device foozle, installation error, but these factors are objective reality, compared with prior art and The scheme of speech, the embodiment of the present invention at least compensates for the frequency departure caused by temperature drift effects, eliminates environment temperature pair The influence of water level of washing machine control.The scheme of the embodiment of the present invention and existing high-precision detecting element or detection means are mutually tied It closes, water level control precision can be further increased.
With reference to shown in Fig. 6, the water-level frequency curve figure under four kinds of ambient temperature conditions is given in figure, wherein 50 DEG C, 10 DEG C and -10 DEG C corresponding to water-level frequency curve, be all preset water level frequency curve f under the conditions of 30 DEG C30~h30On the basis of It is corrected and obtains.It may also confirm that by the curve graph:Under the conditions of same temperature, stagefrequency with water level raising And decline;Under the conditions of same height of water level, stagefrequency rises as temperature increases.Side described in embodiment according to the present invention Case, it is assumed that water level 169mm is set under laundry apparatus standby state, environment temperature at this time is 50 DEG C, it will be appreciated from fig. 6 that environment temperature Under the conditions of 50 DEG C of degree, the stagefrequency corresponding to 169mm setting water levels should be 39.12KHz.In actual use, washing machine Before starting water inlet, 169mm water levels are first transformed into preset water level frequency curve f by MCU30~h30Corresponding preset water level frequency f30 =39.04KHz is pre-stored in corresponding frequency in MCU further according to the actual environment temperature 50 C calling that temperature sensor detects Correction coefficient △ fN=0.080KHz (with reference to Fig. 7), obtains the actual water level frequency f under the conditions of actual environment temperature 50 CN= f30+△fN=39.04KHz+0.080KHz=39.12KHz, MCU control washing machine add water to actual water level frequency fN= Water level corresponding to 39.12KHz, certainly last actual water level also can and earlier set water level 169mm there are certain deviation, But this deviation is mainly caused by factors such as device foozle, installation errors, general inevitable, however compared with prior art For, after carrying out frequency correction using present invention method, actual water level and the deviation for setting water level are much smaller, reference Fig. 7, five kinds of different water levels of machine set, all in accordance with according to the water-level frequency curve f after correctionN=ft+△fN~hNIt carries out Water level control, last actual water level and setting water level deviation be only 2mm or so, compared with prior art in 10mm deviations (as scheme 4) 8mm or so, is reduced, it is evident that its water level control precision, which has, to be increased substantially.
The case where environment temperature is 10 DEG C and -10 DEG C, is similarly corrected, different is only frequency according to the method described above Correction coefficient △ fNIt is varied from, its specific correction course is no longer described in detail in the present embodiment.
It is appreciated that:In the embodiment above, -10 DEG C~50 DEG C of temperature range comparison operators described in the program setting stage The long-term range of temperature of most area is closed, is 30 DEG C of only common test temperatures in laboratory by specific environment temperature t, For theoretically, if specific environment temperature t in -10 DEG C~50 DEG C ranges, such as -5 DEG C, 12 DEG C, 16 DEG C, 25 DEG C, 34 DEG C, 43 DEG C, 50 DEG C etc., in user's service stage, effective actual environment temperature tNIt also should be within the scope of -10 DEG C~50 DEG C. But embodiment of the present invention is not limited in the temperature range, and in other embodiments, which can be according to laundry Machine practical service environment situation zooms in or out, such as -20 DEG C~60 DEG C, 0 DEG C~35 DEG C.
