In this embodiment, the sensing component 21 is an area outside the touch screen 5 for the user to touch and convert the touch action into a corresponding command.
In this embodiment, a control method applied to any one of the above washing machines is also described, where when a user touches any position of a touch screen of the washing machine, the washing machine controls the vibration unit to work under a set working condition according to a distance between the touch position and the vibration unit, drives the touch screen to generate corresponding vibration, and transmits vibration information to the user through touch.
In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the areas of the touch screen at different distances from the vibration unit can receive vibrations with the same amplitude and/or vibration frequency, the following manner may be adopted:
dividing the touch screen into a plurality of areas according to the distance from the vibration unit, wherein each area corresponds to different preset working parameters one by one, and when a user touches the corresponding area, the vibration unit works according to the corresponding different preset working parameters to drive the touch screen to vibrate with the same amplitude and/or vibration frequency. When the user triggers different instruction information, the vibration unit invokes corresponding set working parameters after combining the instruction information and the touch area, so that any area of the touch screen of the user can receive feedback vibration with the same amplitude and/or vibration frequency, and the user can accurately judge the currently executed washing program of the washing machine according to the feedback vibration.
As shown in fig. 6 to 8, in this embodiment, the touch screen is divided into a first area, a second area, a third area and a fourth area, the distance between the first area and the vibration unit is smaller than the distance between the second area and the vibration unit, the distance between the second area and the vibration unit is smaller than the distance between the third area and the vibration unit, and the distance between the third area and the vibration unit is smaller than the distance between the fourth area and the vibration unit. The vibration unit vibration amplitude corresponding to the first region of the user touch is smaller than the vibration unit vibration amplitude corresponding to the second region of the user touch, the vibration unit vibration amplitude corresponding to the second region of the user touch is smaller than the vibration unit vibration amplitude corresponding to the third region of the user touch, and the vibration unit vibration amplitude corresponding to the third region of the user touch is smaller than the vibration unit vibration amplitude corresponding to the fourth region of the user touch. The vibration frequency of the vibration unit corresponding to the first user touch area is smaller than that of the vibration unit corresponding to the first user touch area, and the vibration frequency of the vibration unit corresponding to the first user touch area is smaller than that of the vibration unit corresponding to the first user touch area. Therefore, when the user touches different areas of the touch screen from near to far, the vibration unit outputs different corresponding amplitudes and/or vibration frequencies from small to large, and the contact area of the user and the touch screen generates the same feedback vibration, so that the accuracy of the user to acquire the current state of the washing machine according to the feedback vibration is ensured.
Meanwhile, in this embodiment, in order to match corresponding different vibration feedback when the user touches different areas of the touch screen, so as to prompt the user of the current touch area touched, the following manner may be adopted:
the vibration unit works according to the preset working parameters when a user touches the corresponding area, and drives the touch screen to generate vibration with corresponding amplitude and/or vibration frequency. Therefore, the user can know the current touch area only according to the feedback vibration information, so that the interactivity of the washing machine is improved.
As shown in fig. 6 to 8, in this embodiment, the touch screen is divided into a first area, a second area, a third area and a fourth area, the distance between the first area and the vibration unit is smaller than the distance between the second area and the vibration unit, the distance between the second area and the vibration unit is smaller than the distance between the third area and the vibration unit, and the distance between the third area and the vibration unit is smaller than the distance between the fourth area and the vibration unit. The vibration unit corresponding to the first area drives the vibration amplitude generated by the touch screen to be larger than the vibration amplitude generated by the second area, the vibration unit corresponding to the second area drives the vibration amplitude generated by the touch screen to be larger than the vibration amplitude generated by the third area, and the vibration unit corresponding to the third area drives the vibration amplitude generated by the touch screen to be larger than the vibration amplitude generated by the fourth area. The vibration frequency generated by the vibration unit corresponding to the first area driving the touch screen is larger than the vibration frequency generated by the vibration unit corresponding to the second area driving the touch screen, the vibration frequency generated by the vibration unit corresponding to the second area driving the touch screen is larger than the vibration frequency generated by the vibration unit corresponding to the third area driving the touch screen, and the vibration frequency generated by the vibration unit corresponding to the third area driving the touch screen is larger than the vibration frequency generated by the vibration unit corresponding to the fourth area driving the touch screen.
In this embodiment, the user touches the touch screen, detects the distance between the position of the touch screen and the vibration unit, and invokes the corresponding preset working parameter according to the detected value, so that the vibration unit works according to the invoked preset working parameter to drive the touch screen to generate vibration with corresponding amplitude and/or vibration frequency. Preferably, the distance detection value of the user touch screen position and the vibration unit and the amplitude generated by the corresponding touch screen are in linear change; the distance detection value between the position of the touch control screen and the vibration unit of the user and the vibration frequency generated by the corresponding touch control screen are in linear change. Further preferably, as the distance detection value between the position where the user touches the touch screen and the vibration unit increases, the amplitude generated by the corresponding touch screen gradually decreases, and the vibration frequency generated by the corresponding touch screen gradually increases.
