Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, but not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

Please refer to FIG. 1 , which is a schematic flowchart of a method for controlling water output from a water dispenser according to an embodiment of the present invention. The embodiment of the present invention provides a water outlet control method of a water dispenser, including:

S1. In the open waiting state, detect whether an open command sent by the server is received;

S2. When receiving the opening instruction sent by the server, switch the current state of the water dispenser to the operation waiting state, and set the waiting time as the first time threshold;

S3, in the operation waiting state, detect whether the water outlet control signal input by the user is received within the waiting time;

S4, when the water outlet control signal input by the user is not received within the waiting time, switch the current state of the water dispenser to the open waiting state;

S5. When receiving the water outlet instruction input by the user within the waiting time, switch the current state of the water dispenser to the working state, and control the water dispenser to output drinking water.

In this embodiment, when the user needs to use the water dispenser to drink drinking water, the user logs in to the server and sends an opening instruction through the server to switch the current state of the water dispenser to the operation waiting state; in the operation waiting state, the user can input the water outlet Control signal to control the drinking water dispenser to output drinking water; when in the operating state, if the user does not input the water outlet control signal within the first time threshold, it is determined that drinking water is not required for the user, so the current state of the water dispenser is switched. To turn on the waiting state, so that other users can send turn-on commands through the server to obtain drinking water from the water dispenser. Therefore, the user only needs to input the water outlet control signal within the first time threshold after sending the opening instruction through the server, that is, drinking water can be obtained from the water dispenser; and when the user sends the opening instruction through the server within the first time threshold If the water outlet control signal is not input, the water intake operation cannot be completed, and the drinking water cannot be obtained. The current state of the water dispenser will also be switched back to the open waiting state, so that other users can send the opening command through the server to obtain drinking water.

It should be understood that the method of logging in to the server by the user can be, but not limited to, the method of scanning the QR code on the water dispenser through the mobile terminal to log in to the server; the method of inputting the water outlet control signal by the user can be, but not limited to, by pressing or touching the switch on the water dispenser. The method of inputting the water outlet control signal.

It should be noted that the drinking water includes boiled water and warm boiled water, the user can select the output drinking water type by logging into the server, and the water dispenser outputs the corresponding type of drinking water according to the drinking water type information input by the user.

In an optional embodiment, the method further includes:

S6. In the working state, determine whether the total amount of water output from the water dispenser reaches the water volume threshold when the latest switch to the open waiting state to the current moment;

S7. When the total water output of the water dispenser reaches the water volume threshold at the current moment when it is switched to the on-waiting state last time, the current state of the water dispenser is switched to the on-waiting state, and the water dispenser is controlled to stop outputting drinking water.

In this embodiment, the total amount of water output by the user in a single use is limited and set as the water amount threshold. When the total amount of drinking water output by the user for a single use of the water dispenser reaches the water amount threshold, the water dispenser will no longer output drinking water, and will drink water. The current state of the machine is switched to the on-waiting state, so that other users can send on commands through the server to obtain drinking water.

In an optional embodiment, the method further includes:

S8. Detect whether a stop water control signal input by the user is received when the total water output of the water dispenser does not reach the water volume threshold at the current moment when it is switched to the open waiting state last time;

S9. When receiving the stop water control signal input by the user, switch the current working state of the water dispenser to the operation waiting state, and set the waiting time as the second time threshold.

This embodiment provides an interruption service for the user. When the total water output of the water dispenser does not reach the water volume threshold, if the user needs to suspend the output of drinking water, the user can input a stop water output control signal to make the water dispenser suspend the output of drinking water. At this time, the drinking water The current working state of the water dispenser is switched to the operation waiting state, and the waiting time is set as the second time threshold. Similarly, if the user inputs the water outlet control signal within the second time threshold, the current state of the water dispenser is switched to the working state, and continues Output drinking water until the total water output of the water dispenser does not reach the water volume threshold, the current state of the water dispenser switches to the open waiting state, and stops outputting drinking water; if the user does not input the water output control signal within the second time threshold, it is determined that It is no longer necessary to provide drinking water to the user, and the current state of the water dispenser is switched to an on-waiting state. It can be seen that this embodiment provides an interruption service for the user, so that the user can enjoy drinking water in stages, which is more user-friendly, and at the same time limits the time threshold for interruption of the service, so as to prevent a single user from occupying the water dispenser for a long time.

It should be understood that, the method for the user to input the stop water control signal may be, but not limited to, the method for inputting the stop water control signal by pressing or touching a switch on the water dispenser.

In an optional implementation manner, the second time threshold is smaller than the first time threshold. Based on life experience, the inventor finds that the interruption time for users to obtain drinking water is short, so the second time threshold is set to be smaller than the first time threshold to shorten the waiting time for the next user.
