Referring to fig. 1 to 11, a smart socket 10 for a household appliance 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described, wherein the smart socket 10 is mainly applied to the household appliance 200 to which a power supply circuit 201 and a water supply waterway 202 are simultaneously connected, and whether a municipal tap water pipe 500 supplies tap water to the water supply waterway 202 is controlled by the linkage between the smart socket 10 and the waterway control element 300. That is, the present invention is directed to solving the problem of the on/off of the external water path for supplying water to the home appliance 200.
Specifically, the supply circuit 201 of the household appliance 200 is connected with the mains supply through the smart socket 10, generally, this smart socket 10 is provided with a zero line input end and a zero line output end connected with the mains supply, a live line input end and a live line output end, a ground line input end and a ground line output end, wherein the household appliance 200 has the supply circuit 201 provided with a power line connector, the power line connector is suitable for being connected with the live line output end, the zero line output end and the ground line output end, the live line input end, the zero line input end and the ground line input end are respectively connected with the live line circuit 501, the zero line circuit 502 and the ground line circuit 503 of the. That is, after the smart socket 10 is connected to the power connector of the home appliance 200, power may be supplied to the home appliance 200. It should be noted that the smart socket 10 may be directly installed on the wall, or a common socket may be further disposed between the smart socket 10 and the electric wire of the utility power, the common socket is embedded in the wall, and the smart socket 10 is further inserted into the common socket, so that the universality of the smart socket 10 may be increased, and different installation requirements may be met.
The water supply path 202 of the home appliance 200 is connected to a municipal tap water pipe 500, and at least one path control member 300 performing turning on or off the municipal tap water pipe 500 to supply water to the water supply path 202 is provided between the municipal tap water pipe 500 and the water supply path 202. It should be noted that the water supply path 202 and the municipal tap water 500 may be directly connected or indirectly connected, for example, a mechanical valve may be provided between the water supply path 202 and the municipal tap water 500, and the mechanical valve may be a faucet through which the municipal tap water 500 is mechanically opened or closed to the water supply path 202.
In this embodiment, the smart socket 10 includes a main control module 12, a load control module 11, and a waterway control interface. The load control module 11 is in communication connection with the main control module 12, and the load control module 11 controls the on/off of the power supply of the household appliance 200 according to the control instruction sent by the main control module 12. That is, the smart socket 10 may turn on or off the power supply circuit 201 according to the power demand of the home appliance 200. For example, in the case that the main control module 12 sends a power-off command to the load control module 11, the load control module 11 may cut off a power line connected to the smart socket 10, thereby stopping power supply to the home appliance 200. For another example, in the case that the main control module 12 sends the power-off command to the load control module 11, the load control module 11 may cut off the live line and/or the neutral line connected to the smart socket 10, respectively, so as to stop supplying power to the household appliance 200.
The waterway control interface 1d is electrically connected to the main control module 12 and the waterway control element 300, respectively. That is, the intelligent socket 10 is provided with a waterway control interface, so that the waterway control element 300 can be linked with the intelligent socket 10, and the main control module 12 in the intelligent socket 10 determines whether the waterway control element 300 performs to turn on the waterway and turn off the waterway according to the use state of the household appliance 200.
Taking a washing machine as an example to explain the linkage relationship between the waterway control element 300 and the smart socket 10, in a washing cycle of the washing machine, when the washing machine enters a cleaning stage or a rinsing stage, the main control module 12 controls the waterway control element 300 to conduct a waterway, so that the municipal tap water pipe 500 sends water to the water supply waterway 202, and when the water amount in the washing cylinder reaches a preset value and the washing machine does not feed water any more, the main control module 12 controls the waterway control element 300 to disconnect the waterway; when the washing machine enters the dehydration stage, the main control module 12 controls the waterway control unit 300 to perform disconnection of the waterway, that is, the municipal tap water pipe 500 is disconnected from the water supply waterway 202.

For example, when a user starts to use the electric water heater and water inside the pipeline starts to flow, the main control module 12 may send an instruction to enable the intelligent socket 10 to cut off the high-voltage commercial power connected to the electric water heater, so that the user does not have a risk of electric shock during use, and when the user stops water flowing after use, the instruction is sent out again to enable the intelligent socket 10 to connect with a power supply on the electric water heater to start heating water.
That is, the main control module 12 in the smart socket 10 can precisely control the operation of the waterway control member 300 according to the use state of the home appliance 200, thereby controlling whether the municipal tap water pipe 500 supplies water to the water supply waterway 202.
As will be appreciated by those skilled in the art, as shown in fig. 1-12, the smart socket 10 further includes a power module 15, and the power module 15 supplies power to the main control module 12, the load control module 11, the first wireless communication module, and the power detection module. The power module 15 may include an AC-DC switching power supply circuit, a resistance-capacitance voltage-reducing circuit, and the like, and converts the commercial power of the AC high voltage into low-voltage direct current required by each functional module in the smart jack 10 through the power module 15, so as to supply power to each functional module in the smart jack 10, thereby ensuring that each functional module in the smart jack 10 normally and stably operates.
In short, according to the smart socket 10 for the household appliance 200 of the embodiment of the present invention, not only the on/off of the household appliance 200 can be controlled by the load control module 11, but also whether the municipal tap water pipe 500 supplies water to the water supply water channel 202 can be controlled by the linkage between the main control module 12 and the water channel control element 300, and meanwhile, the linkage control of the elements of the household appliance such as water and electricity is realized, so that the safety problem that the water supply water channel 202 of the household appliance 200 and the municipal tap water pipe 500 are in a conducting state for a long time and the power supply circuit and the high voltage commercial power are in a conducting state for a long time can be avoided.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the waterway control member 300 is a water pump and/or a water valve. That is, only a water valve may be provided between the municipal tap water pipe 500 and the water supply waterway 202, and the water valve may be an electromagnetic valve or an electrically operated valve. Or only a water pump can be arranged between the municipal tap water pipe 500 and the water supply waterway 202, the on-off between the water supply waterway 202 and the municipal tap water pipe 500 can be controlled by the water pump, and the water pressure can be increased by the water pump. Or a water valve and a water pump are arranged between the municipal tap water pipe 500 and the water supply waterway 202 at the same time, and the on-off between the water supply waterway 202 and the municipal tap water pipe 500 is controlled by the water valve and the water pump at the same time.
In other embodiments of the present invention, the waterway control member 300 may also include both a mechanical valve and an electrically controlled valve, such that the waterway may be manually disconnected in an emergency.

In other words, the waterway information of the water supply waterway 202 is collected by the waterway information collecting module 400, and the waterway information may reflect the use state of the household appliance 200, for example, the water pressure, flow rate and flow rate in the water supply waterway 202 may not change when the household appliance 200 is not in the working state; under the condition that the household appliance 200 is in a working state, the water pressure, the flow rate and the flow rate in the water supply waterway 202 will change dynamically, and under different working modes, the water pressure, the flow rate and the flow rate in the water supply waterway 202 will be different, so that under the condition that the waterway information in the water supply waterway 202 acquired by the waterway information acquisition module 400 is not in a normal range, the intelligent socket 10 sends out a warning signal to remind a user, or disconnects the waterway and/or the power supply between the water supply waterway 202 and the municipal tap water pipe 500, thereby avoiding safety accidents of the household appliance 200.
In some optional embodiments of the present invention, the waterway information collecting module 400 is a flow sensor, which can collect whether the water flow in the water supply waterway 202 is within a preset range for a certain period of time, and in case the water flow in the water supply waterway 202 exceeds the preset range, the smart socket 10 sends out an alarm signal and/or disconnects the waterway between the water supply waterway 202 and the municipal tap water pipe 500. For example, in the case that the household appliance 200 is a washing machine, if the water flow rate of the water supply path 202 exceeds a preset range in a washing cycle of the washing machine, the main control module 12 of the smart socket 10 may alarm for water cut-off and/or power cut-off in time. In addition, whether the water inlet of the washing machine is normal or not can be judged by combining the flow rate and the current working mode, so that whether the water supply waterway 202 has the water seepage problem or not is comprehensively judged, and a user is timely reminded to check the waterway. For example, during the washing or rinsing stage of the washing machine, the water inflow amount is about several liters to several tens of liters, if the water inflow amount measured by the flow sensor at a time reaches several hundreds of liters, water leakage may occur, and the main control module 12 of the smart socket 10 may timely send out an alarm of water cut-off and/or power cut-off.

Taking the household appliance 200 as an example of a washing machine, the municipal tap water pipe 500 and the water supply waterway 202 are in a conducting state, the water pressure in the water supply waterway 202 is F, the municipal tap water pipe 500 and the water supply waterway 202 are in a closing state, the water pressure in the water supply waterway 202 is F, and F is smaller than F, if the washing machine is in a working state, and the water pressure in the water supply waterway 202 is continuously lower, the main control module 12 of the smart socket 10 can timely send out an alarm of water cut-off and/or power cut-off. In addition, in order to improve the judgment accuracy, whether the water seepage problem occurs in the water channel can be comprehensively judged by combining the flow, the flow speed and other relevant information.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the smart socket 10 further comprises: the power detection module 14 is configured to monitor a voltage and/or a current and/or a power and/or an electric quantity loaded by the household appliance 200 in real time, and transmit the detected information to the main control module 12. That is, the electric energy detection module 14 obtains the relevant electric power parameters of the household appliance 200 in real time and transmits the electric power parameters to the main control module 12 in real time, the main control module 12 performs analysis and judgment according to the relevant electric power parameter information to obtain the use state of the household appliance 200, and the main control module 12 determines whether the waterway control element performs to turn on the waterway or to turn off the waterway and the load control module 11 to cut off the power supply according to the use state of the household appliance 200.
