Background
With the development of scientific technology, the automatic additive feeding technology is more and more applied to the working process of the washing machine. Because the inner wall of the additive storage device is soaked in the additive for a long time, a layer of solid additive is formed on the surface of the inner wall of the storage device along with the lapse of time, the solid additive is difficult to clean, and an automatic feeding port is blocked, so that the feeding amount of the additive in the automatic feeding device is more and more inaccurate. In addition, the additive which is already scabbed and agglomerated has strong surface adhesion in a wet environment, and the scabbed and agglomeration phenomena are further aggravated when the additive is added into the storage device in the subsequent use process, so that the additive is prevented from playing a cleaning role, and the water inflow of the clothes treatment device is also seriously influenced. Further, if the additive forming the scabs is brought into the clothes treatment apparatus during the water inlet process, the additive is attached to the clothes and is difficult to dissolve, which affects the clothes treatment effect and contaminates the clothes. In addition, the residual additive can also affect the accuracy of the input amount of the automatic input device. It can be seen that how to clean the additive remaining in the additive storage device to avoid the scabbing phenomenon and how to realize the automatic cleaning of the additive remaining inside the clothes treatment device are very important.
The present invention has been made in view of this situation.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and the following embodiments are used for illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for convenience of description and simplicity of description, but do not indicate or imply that the device or element being referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" are to be construed broadly and may be, for example, fixedly connected, detachably connected, or integrally connected; can be mechanically or electrically connected; may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate. The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in a specific case to those of ordinary skill in the art.
Example one
The cleaning conditions of the cleaning method of the automatic feeding device in the embodiment are as follows: whether an additive exists in a storage unit of the automatic feeding device or not, and if the additive exists in the storage unit, the cleaning condition is not met; if no additive is in the storage unit, the cleaning condition is met; after the additive is added every time, the control system judges whether the additive exists in the storage unit of the automatic adding device or not; and when the judgment result is that the cleaning operation of the automatic putting device can be executed, water is injected into the storage unit through the water inlet on the storage unit, and then the storage unit is cleaned. The completion of the clothes treatment means that the device completes all instructions given by the user at this time.
As shown in fig. 1, the method for cleaning an automatic dispensing device according to this embodiment includes the following steps:
s1, starting a starting program;
s2, judging whether the automatic releasing device is executing releasing; if yes, go to step S3; if not, go to step S4;
s3, judging whether the current throwing of the automatic throwing device is finished; if yes, go to step S5; if not, waiting for the target time, and repeating the step;
s4, judging whether the automatic releasing device is to execute releasing; if yes, wait for a specific time, and execute step S2; if not, waiting for the starting program to be started again;
and S5, starting the automatic feeding device cleaning program.
According to the technical scheme in the embodiment, program operation supervision is carried out when the starting program is started every time, and when the control system judges that the additive feeding program is completed, the automatic feeding device cleaning program is automatically started. The judgment in each step is automatically completed by the control system, and the process does not need manual intervention, so that the operation burden of a user is reduced. And automatic put in device washing procedure and can not hinder the going on of clothing processing procedure, in time clear up storage unit after the additive is put in and can avoid storing the intracavity additive and remain difficult the washing that leads to for a long time. In contrast, in the prior art, the storage unit is cleaned manually, and the user needs to detach the storage unit from the automatic dispensing device when the storage unit needs to be cleaned, and then replace the storage unit after the storage unit is cleaned manually, which is obviously inconvenient.
Still further preferably, the judging method in this embodiment is as follows: control of the marking and cleaning conditions: the number of times of putting operation executed by the automatic putting device/time from the last time of cleaning of the automatic putting device and whether the additive exists in the storage unit of the automatic putting device. That is, the control system judges whether the actual value of the control identifier of the automatic dispensing device is greater than the threshold value, and if the actual value of the control identifier is greater than the threshold value, judges whether the automatic dispensing device meets the cleaning condition; if the number of times of putting operation executed by the automatic putting device/the time for cleaning the automatic putting device last time does not reach a threshold value, the cleaning condition is not met; and if the number of times of the automatic putting device for executing putting operation/the time for cleaning the automatic putting device last time reaches a threshold value, the cleaning condition is met. That is, when the control system starts to determine the cleaning condition, it is first determined whether the control flag reaches the threshold, and when the control flag reaches the threshold, for example, the number of times that the automatic dispensing device performs the dispensing operation reaches a certain number of times, it is then determined whether there is an additive in the storage unit of the automatic dispensing device, and if the determination result is that there is no additive in the storage unit of the automatic dispensing device, the cleaning condition is satisfied. And when the control mark does not reach the threshold value, judging whether the additive exists in the storage unit of the automatic feeding device or not is not carried out, and the cleaning condition is not satisfied necessarily at the moment. In the use of some commercial clothes treatment devices, because the device is frequently used, the additive adhesion phenomenon of the storage unit of the automatic feeding device is not too serious, the automatic feeding device can be prevented from being cleaned after the clothes treatment device is used every time, and the water is saved. The double determination in this embodiment completely solves the above technical problem.
Example two
In the cleaning method of the automatic dispensing device according to the embodiment,
the steps between S3 and S5 further comprise the steps of:
b1, the control system sends out a prompt to prompt a user whether to start a storage unit cleaning program of the automatic putting device; if the user selects yes, go to step S5; if the user selects no, executing step B2;
b2, waiting for the starting program to start again;
therefore, the technical scheme in the embodiment fully considers that whether the user performs manual intervention on cleaning of the automatic putting device or not when the user actually uses the device in design.
Further preferably, the step B1 and the step B2 further include the following steps:
c1, the control system judges whether the clothes treatment is finished; if yes, go to step C2; if not, go to step C3;
c2, executing the step S5;
c3, waiting for a preset time, and executing the step C1;
preferably, the method further comprises the following steps between the steps C1 and C2:
d1, the control system sends out a prompt to prompt the user whether to start a cleaning program of the storage unit of the automatic putting device; if the user selects yes, go to step C2; if the user selects no, executing step B2;
still further preferably, the judgment in each step is completed by a control system; preferably, the system completion comprises system auto-completion and/or user instruction completion.
Through the design, even if the user chooses not to clean the storage unit after the additive is put in, the system can continue to track the process of the clothes treatment, and after all clothes treatment programs specified by the user are finished, the control system prompts the user whether to clean the automatic putting device or not, so that the user can select again.
Further, as shown in fig. 2, in the method for cleaning an automatic dispensing device according to this embodiment, whether the automatic dispensing device satisfies the cleaning condition is determined by determining whether an additive is present in a storage unit of the automatic dispensing device. Further, step S5 in this embodiment includes:
a1, judging whether the additive exists in a storage unit for storing the additive; if yes, go to step A2; if not, executing the step A3;
a2, waiting for the starting program to start again;
a3, controlling the automatic feeding device to spray water into a storage unit for storing additives in the automatic feeding device by the control system; and performing step a 4;
a4, calculating the accumulated time of water spraying by the control system; and performing step a 5;
a5, detecting by a control system in real time, and judging whether the water spraying time reaches a target time or not; if yes, go to step A6; if not, executing the step A4;
a6, finishing the cleaning program of the automatic putting device, and waiting for the starting program to be started again;
through the design, the cleaning effect of the automatic feeding device can be more fully realized. The control of the accumulated flushing time is simple and convenient, and is beneficial to the control of the system. Preferably, in actual use, the user can adjust the target time of cleaning by himself or herself according to needs. The adjustment of the target time for cleaning can be realized by a control panel of the device. Further preferably, the determination in step a1 is automatically performed by the control system, so that the device has a more intelligent control mode. Or in some cases, even if some additive is left in the storage unit and the user wishes to replace another additive, the cleaning procedure of the automatic dispensing device can be manually intervened when the original additive needs to be discarded, and the cleaning operation can be started when the additive is left in the storage unit.
Preferably, the threshold/corresponding preset value/predetermined time/specific time/preset time comprises system preset and/or user self-setting.
