Detailed Description
Preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are merely for explaining the technical principles of the present invention, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. For example, although the present application has been described in connection with a washing machine, the technical solution of the present invention is not limited thereto, and the water replenishment control method may obviously be applied to other washing apparatuses such as a washing and drying machine, without departing from the principle and scope of the present invention.
Based on the technical problems in the background art, the invention provides a water replenishing control method for a washing machine, which aims to judge whether the washing machine executes water replenishing operation according to an acquired voice control instruction, so that the aim of controlling the washing machine to execute water replenishing operation in a voice mode is fulfilled.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, fig. 1 is a flowchart of a water replenishment control method of the present invention; fig. 2 is a flow chart of a water replenishment control method according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the water replenishment control method of the present invention comprises the steps of:
s1, acquiring the height of a user;
s2, acquiring an operation stage of the washing machine;
s3, selectively acquiring a voice control instruction of a user according to the height and the operation stage;
s4, judging whether the washing machine is enabled to execute water supplementing operation or not according to the acquired voice control instruction.
The operation stage of the washing machine comprises a water injection stage, a washing stage, a rinsing stage, a draining stage, a spin-drying stage, a water supplementing stage and other stages.
Preferably, during the operation of the washing machine, the situation that the laundry cannot be completely submerged even if the washing machine is filled with the washing water of the preset water level threshold is likely to occur that the amount of the washing water actually injected is low or the preset water level threshold is set to be low, and therefore, during the operation of the washing machine, the steps S1 and S2 are performed, that is, the height of the user and the operation stage of the washing machine are obtained. And in the state that the washing machine is in a stop state or a standby state, the washing machine does not need to execute water replenishing operation, so that the height of a user and the operation stage of the washing machine do not need to be acquired.
It should be further noted that, in the process of obtaining the height of the user and the operation stage of the washing machine, the height of the user may be obtained first, and then the operation stage of the washing machine may be obtained; or firstly acquiring the operation stage of the washing machine and then acquiring the height of a user; the height of the user and the operation stage of the washing machine can be obtained at the same time, and a person skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the height of the user and the obtaining sequence of the operation stage of the washing machine in practical application, without departing from the principle and scope of the invention.
In a preferred embodiment, before the step S1 of "obtaining the height of the user", the water replenishment control method further includes:
s01, acquiring the distance between a user and the washing machine;
s02, judging whether the distance is smaller than a preset distance threshold value;
s03, if the distance is smaller than a preset distance threshold, judging whether to execute the operation of acquiring the height of the user according to the stay time of the user in the preset distance threshold;
s04, if the distance is greater than or equal to a preset distance threshold value, not executing the operation of acquiring the height of the user.
In step S03, if the distance is smaller than the preset distance threshold, it indicates that the user is already within the range of the preset distance threshold, and in order to accurately determine whether to obtain the height of the user, the residence time of the user within the preset distance threshold is further obtained, and whether to execute the operation of obtaining the height of the user is accurately determined according to the residence time.
In step S04, if the distance is greater than or equal to the preset distance threshold, which means that the user is outside the range of the preset distance threshold, it may be considered that the user does not operate the washing machine in a voice manner, and the operation of acquiring the height of the user is not performed.
In the above process, by setting the preset distance threshold, a conclusion can be primarily given whether to execute the operation of acquiring the height of the user. The preset distance threshold is a maximum distance that can determine that the user wants to operate the washing machine, or a maximum distance that the user can operate the washing machine in a voice manner, and of course, the preset distance threshold is not limited to the above-listed distances, and a person skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set according to actual situations, so long as the demarcation point determined by the preset distance threshold can meet the requirement of determining whether the user wants to operate the washing machine.
Preferably, in step S03, the step of "determining whether to perform the operation of acquiring the height of the user according to the residence time of the user within the preset distance threshold" specifically includes:
s031, acquiring the residence time of a user in a preset distance threshold;
s032, judging whether the residence time is greater than a preset time threshold;
s033, if the residence time is greater than a preset time threshold, executing the operation of acquiring the height of the user;
s034, if the residence time is less than or equal to a preset time threshold, not executing the operation of acquiring the height of the user.
In step S033, if the stay time is greater than the preset time threshold, the user may consider that the user is about to operate the washing machine in a voice manner, and in order to avoid the situation that the child operates the washing machine by mistake, an operation of obtaining the height of the user is performed, so as to determine whether the user has permission to operate the washing machine through the height of the user.
In step S034, if the stay time is less than or equal to the preset time threshold, which indicates that the user is passing through the washing machine and is not to operate the washing machine in a voice manner, the operation of acquiring the height of the user is not performed.
In the above process, by setting the preset time threshold, it can be further concluded whether to execute the operation of obtaining the height of the user. The preset time threshold is the shortest residence time capable of judging that the user wants to operate the washing machine, and can be experimental time obtained by a person skilled in the art according to experiments under specific working conditions, and of course, the preset time threshold is not limited to the above-listed time, and can be flexibly adjusted and set according to practical situations by the person skilled in the art, as long as the demarcation point determined by the preset time threshold is met, and the requirement of judging whether the user wants to operate the washing machine can be met.
Alternatively, in the above process, step S1 of "obtaining the height of the user" may be performed first, and whether the user has authority to operate the washing machine may be determined by the height of the user; secondly, when the user has authority to operate the washing machine, steps S01 to S04 are performed to judge whether the user wants to operate the washing machine through the distance between the user and the washing machine; again, when the distance is less than the preset distance threshold, steps S031 to S034 are performed to further judge whether the user is to operate the washing machine by the user' S stay time within the preset distance threshold. It should be further noted that the execution sequence and combination of steps S01 to S04, steps S031 to 034 and step S1 are not limited to the above-listed sequence and combination, and those skilled in the art may flexibly adjust and set the execution sequence and combination of steps S01 to S04, steps S031 to 034 and step S1 as required, which does not deviate from the scope and the scope of the present invention.
In a preferred embodiment, in step S3, the step of selectively acquiring the voice control command of the user according to the height and the operation stage specifically includes:
s31, judging whether the height is larger than a preset height threshold value or not;
s32, judging whether the operation stage of the washing machine is a washing stage or a rinsing stage;
s33, if the height is larger than a preset height threshold value and the washing machine is in a washing stage or a rinsing stage, acquiring a voice control instruction;
s34, if the height is smaller than or equal to a preset height threshold value or the washing machine is in a non-washing stage or a rinsing stage, the voice control instruction is not acquired.
In step S33, if the height is greater than the preset height threshold, it indicates that the height of the user is higher, and the user can be considered to be teenagers, adults or elderly people, and the user can be considered to have authority to operate the washing machine because the teenagers, adults or elderly people can well operate the washing machine; and the washing machine is in a washing stage or a rinsing stage, at this time, the washing machine has completed the water injection operation, if the amount of the washing water actually injected is low, or the preset water amount threshold value is low, even if the washing machine injects the washing water with the preset water amount threshold value, the situation that the clothes cannot be completely submerged is required to be supplemented with a certain amount of washing water to meet the requirement of washing the clothes cleanly, and in order to facilitate the user to operate the washing machine in a voice manner to execute the water supplementing operation, the voice control instruction of the user is obtained.
In step S34, if the height is less than or equal to the preset height threshold, it indicates that the user is short, and the user can be considered to be an infant or a child, and because the infant or the child is not allowed to operate the washing machine, the user can be considered to have no authority to operate the washing machine, and the operation of acquiring the operation stage of the washing machine is not performed, so that the infant or the child is prevented from being injured due to misoperation of the washing machine, and the use safety of the washing machine is improved; or when the operation stage of the washing machine is not the washing stage or the rinsing stage, for example, the washing machine is in the water injection stage, the water discharge stage, the spin-drying stage, the water replenishment stage and other stages, the washing machine is not executing the water injection operation to determine whether the injected washing water quantity can meet the requirement of cleaning the clothes, or the washing machine is executing the water discharge or spin-drying operation, and the voice control instruction is not acquired without executing the water replenishment operation.
In the process, a conclusion of judging whether the user has authority to operate the washing machine is given through setting the preset height threshold value. Through repeated experiments, observation, analysis and comparison of the inventor, the preset height threshold value is determined to be the minimum height for judging that the user has no authority to operate the washing machine. In practical applications, the actual value of the preset height threshold is not limited to the values listed above, and may be obtained by a person skilled in the art according to experiments or experience.
Preferably, in step S33, the step of acquiring the voice control command "if the height is greater than the preset height threshold and the washing machine is in the washing stage or rinsing stage" specifically includes:
s331, sending prompt information to a user to prompt the user whether the washing machine is in a washing stage or a rinsing stage or not, and performing water supplementing operation;
s332, after the prompt information is sent to the user, a voice control instruction is acquired.
Preferably, the washing machine can send prompt information in the form of voice, words, pictures, light and the like so as to prompt a user whether the washing machine is in a washing stage or a rinsing stage or not to need water replenishing operation.
Of course, step S331 may not be executed, and step S332 may be executed directly to obtain the voice control command when the washing machine is in the washing stage or the rinsing stage.
In a preferred embodiment, in step S4, the step of determining whether to make the washing machine perform the water replenishment operation according to the acquired voice control command specifically includes:
s41, judging whether the content of the acquired voice control instruction contains information related to specific water supplementing amount;
s42, if the content of the acquired voice control instruction contains information related to specific water supplementing amount, the washing machine executes water supplementing operation according to the voice control instruction;
s43, if the content of the acquired voice control instruction does not contain information related to specific water supplementing amount, judging whether the water is supplemented to a preset water level threshold value according to a comparison result of the current water level of the washing machine and the preset water level threshold value;
wherein the information related to the specific water replenishment amount includes at least one of a specific water replenishment time, a water replenishment amount, and a water replenishment shift position.
In step S42, if the content of the obtained voice control command contains information related to a specific water replenishment amount, for example, 1min for water replenishment, 3L for water replenishment, 5 steps for water replenishment, etc., which indicates that the voice control command is a specific control command, the washing machine can accurately perform the water replenishment operation according to the voice control command, and the washing machine is caused to perform the water replenishment operation according to the voice control command. Of course, the specific water replenishment time, water replenishment amount and water replenishment shift position are not limited to the above-listed time, water amount and shift position, and can be flexibly adjusted and set by those skilled in the art according to the use requirement of time.
In step S43, if the content of the obtained voice control instruction does not include information related to a specific water replenishment amount, for example, the content of the voice control instruction includes only information such as water replenishment or water replenishment, and does not include information related to a specific water replenishment amount, which indicates that the voice control instruction is a fuzzy control instruction, the washing machine cannot determine how to perform the water replenishment operation according to the voice control instruction, for example, how long, how much water to replenish, or how much water to replenish to several gears, etc., so as to accurately determine how to perform the water replenishment operation, whether to replenish the water to the preset water level threshold is determined according to a comparison result of the current water level and the preset water level threshold of the washing machine, thereby enabling the washing machine to accurately perform the water replenishment operation, improving the accuracy of the water replenishment amount, not only meeting the water replenishment requirement, but also avoiding the waste of water resources, and further improving the use experience of users.
Preferably, in step S43, the step of determining whether to replenish water to the preset water level threshold according to the comparison result of the current water level of the washing machine and the preset water level threshold specifically includes:
s431, acquiring the current water level of the washing machine;
s432, judging whether the current water level is lower than a preset water level threshold value;
s433, if the current water level is lower than a preset water level threshold, the washing machine is supplemented with water to the preset water level threshold;
s434, if the current water level is higher than or equal to the preset water level threshold, selectively enabling the washing machine to execute the water replenishing operation according to the judging result of whether the laundry amount to be washed is matched with the current water level.
In step S433, if the current water level is lower than the preset water level threshold, it indicates that the actual injection amount of the washing water is lower, the preset water level threshold is not reached, the washing water amount is insufficient, and it is difficult to clean the laundry, and the washing machine is made to replenish water to the preset water level threshold to increase the washing water amount, thereby ensuring the laundry to be cleaned.
In step S434, if the current water level is higher than or equal to the preset water level threshold, although the washing water of the preset water level threshold is injected, the washing machine may not completely submerge the laundry even if the washing machine injects the washing water of the preset water level threshold due to the fact that the preset water level threshold set by the user is low, and thus the laundry cannot be cleaned, the washing machine is selectively made to perform the water replenishing operation according to the determination result of whether the laundry amount to be cleaned matches the current water level.
In the above process, the preset water level threshold may be a water level threshold determined by a user according to a material, weight, volume, etc. of the laundry to be washed; the water level threshold value recommended by the washing machine can also be used; or the water level threshold value of the washing program selected by the user, and the person skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the preset water level threshold value.
Preferably, in step S434, the step of selectively causing the washing machine to perform the water replenishment operation according to the determination result of whether the laundry amount matches the current water level specifically includes:
s4341, judging whether the laundry amount to be washed is matched with the current water level;
s4342, if the laundry amount to be washed is matched with the current water level, the washing machine is not made to perform the water replenishing operation;
s4343, if the laundry amount to be cleaned is not matched with the current water level, acquiring a voice control instruction of the user again;
s4344, enabling the washing machine to execute water supplementing operation according to the acquired voice control instruction;
the re-acquired voice control instruction contains information related to specific water supplementing quantity; the laundry amount matching with the current water level means that the washing water of the current water level can completely submerge all the laundry to be washed.
In step S4341, the washing machine includes an image recognition module for recognizing a relationship between the laundry amount to be washed and the current water level through image recognition, and when the current water level does not submerge all the laundry to be washed (i.e., the current water level is located below the highest level of the laundry to be washed), the laundry amount to be washed is considered to be not matched with the current water level; when the current water level floods all the laundry to be washed (i.e., the current water level is above the highest level of the laundry to be washed or on the same level as the highest level of the laundry to be washed), the laundry amount to be washed can be considered to match the current water level.
In step S4342, if the laundry amount matches the current water level, it is indicated that the washing water of the current water level can completely submerge all the laundry, so that all the laundry can be completely washed, and the washing water amount is sufficient, so that the washing machine does not perform the water replenishment operation.
In step S4343, if the laundry amount is not matched with the current water level, it is indicated that the washing water at the current water level cannot completely submerge all the laundry, and cannot completely wash all the laundry, and the washing water is insufficient, the voice control command of the user is acquired again, and the washing machine is enabled to perform the water replenishing operation according to the acquired voice control command.
Preferably, in step S4343, the step of "acquiring the voice control command of the user again if the laundry amount does not match the current water level" specifically includes:
s43431, sending consultation information to a user so as to consult the water supplementing quantity of the washing machine of the user;
s43432, after the consultation information is sent to the user, the voice control instruction of the user is acquired again.
Preferably, the washing machine can send the consultation information in the form of voice, words, pictures, lights, etc. to consult the water replenishment amount of the washing machine for the user.
In a preferred embodiment, the washing machine includes a water valve; the water replenishing control method further comprises the following steps:
s51, judging whether a water valve is opened or not in the process of washing and executing water replenishing operation;
s52, selectively sending prompt information according to a judging result of whether the water valve is opened.
Preferably, in step S52, the step of selectively sending the prompt message according to the determination result of whether the water valve is opened specifically includes:
s521, if the water valve is opened, no prompt message is sent;
and S522, if the water valve is not opened, a prompt message for opening the water valve is sent to a user.
In step S521, if the water valve is opened, indicating that the washing machine can normally feed water, no prompt message needs to be sent.
In step S522, if the water valve is not opened, indicating that the washing machine cannot normally feed water, a prompt message for opening the water valve is sent to the user, so that the user can open the water valve in time, and the washing machine can normally perform water replenishing operation.
Preferably, the washing machine transmits prompt information to the user in the form of voice, words, pictures, lights, and the like.
Referring now to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a flow chart of a water replenishment control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
