It should be noted that, in the implementation process, the control unit 200 and the input unit 100 may be integrated with the vacuum packaging apparatus 300, or may be installed as separate components at different positions of the refrigerator.
In the specific implementation process, the vacuum sealing device 300 provided in the embodiment of the present invention may be installed at a position as shown in fig. 2, and the vacuum sealing device 300 may be disposed on a refrigerating door 401 of a refrigerator, or may be disposed on a freezing door 402, and since the refrigerating door 401 is located at the upper side, it is usually preferably disposed on the refrigerating door 401 in order to meet the use habit of a user.
As shown in fig. 3, the vacuum packaging apparatus of the refrigerator includes a first portion 11 and a second portion 12 as an embodiment. A control panel 4011 is provided on a refrigerator door 4012 of the refrigerator door 401, and may be a display panel for user convenience.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 4, the vacuum packaging apparatus 300 may include: the vacuum device comprises a lower vacuum cavity 312 fixed on the door body and an upper vacuum cavity 311 moving up and down under the action of a driving device, wherein the upper vacuum cavity 311 is butted with the lower vacuum cavity 312 to form a vacuum-pumping area 310, and the vacuum-pumping area 310 is communicated with a vacuum pump 320. The vacuum packaging apparatus 300 further includes a plastic packaging part 330, and the plastic packaging part 330 is used for heating and plastic packaging the storage bag.
As a possible implementation manner, as shown in fig. 4, the upper vacuum chamber 311 may be located on an upper support 313, the lower vacuum chamber 312 may be located on a lower support 314, after the upper vacuum chamber 311 moves to the lower vacuum chamber 312, the upper vacuum chamber 311 and the lower vacuum chamber 312 are sealed in a butt joint manner to form a vacuum pumping region 310, and the control unit 200 may control the upper support 313 to automatically lift and lower, so as to lock and unlock the upper vacuum chamber 311 and the lower vacuum chamber 312, thereby implementing automatic vacuum packaging and improving the intelligence of the refrigerator. The vacuum-pumping region 310 may be connected to the vacuum pump 320 through a pipe 360, so that the vacuum pump 320 can vacuum the vacuum-pumping region 310.
In order to improve the sealing performance of the vacuum-pumping region 310, a first sealing groove 315 is disposed on the outer periphery of the upper vacuum chamber 311, a second sealing groove 316 is disposed on the outer periphery of the lower vacuum chamber 312, a sealing ring 317 is disposed in the first sealing groove 315 and the second sealing groove 316, and the two sealing rings 317 disposed in the first sealing groove 315 and the second sealing groove 316 seal the vacuum-pumping region 310 inside, thereby realizing reliable sealing of the vacuum-pumping region 310.
In addition, a packaging area 331 is arranged outside the vacuuming area 310, a heat insulation pad 332 and a plastic package portion 330 are arranged in the packaging area 331, the heat insulation pad 332 and the plastic package portion 330 are arranged in opposition to each other, specifically, the plastic package portion 330 is arranged in a groove on the lower surface of the upper support 313, the heat insulation pad 332 is arranged in a groove on the upper surface of the lower support 314, and when the driving device drives the upper support 313 to move to the vacuuming area 310 which forms a seal with the lower support 314, the heat insulation pad 332 in the packaging area 331 abuts against the plastic package portion 330. After the control unit 200 controls the vacuum pump 320 to perform vacuum pumping, the plastic package part 330 of the package area 331 can perform plastic package on the storage bag rapidly, and after the plastic package part 330 operates for a set time, the driving device drives the upper support 313 to move upwards, so that a user can draw out the storage bag to perform plastic package on the storage bag.
As shown in fig. 5, the vacuum packaging apparatus 300 may further include a pressure sensing device 340 and a pressure relief device 350. The vacuum pump 320 and the pressure sensing device 340 are connected to the evacuated region 310 via a line 360. The vacuum pump 320 is used for vacuumizing the vacuumized area 310, the pressure sensing device 340 is used for determining whether the pressure value in the vacuumized area 310 meets a preset condition, and after determining that the preset condition is met, the vacuum pump 320 stops vacuumizing. The vacuum pump 320 is used for pumping vacuum to the vacuumized area 310 under the control of the control unit 200, and the pressure sensing device 340 is used for sensing the pressure value in the vacuumized area 310 in real time and sending a pressure instruction to the control unit 200 when the pressure value in the vacuumized area 310 reaches a preset condition, so that the control unit 200 controls the vacuum pump 320 to stop working according to the pressure instruction.
The vacuum pump 320, the vacuum-pumping region 310, the pressure-sensing device 340, and the like are connected by a pipeline 360 made of silica gel or other materials, and the joints are required to be sealed. The vacuum pump 320 is used to provide negative pressure within the system. The pressure sensing device 340 is connected to the vacuum-pumping region 310 through a three-way valve, and indicates the pressure value in the vacuum-pumping region 310 in real time. When the pressure value in the vacuuming area 310 reaches the preset condition, the pressure sensing device 340 transmits the data to the control unit 200, and after the control unit 200 determines that the data is the preset condition, the control unit gives a command to the vacuum pump 320 to stop the vacuum pump 320, and then the sealing procedure is performed.
The pressure relief device 350 is used to relieve pressure in the evacuated region 310 and open the evacuated region 310. The pressure relief device 350 is connected to the pressure sensing device 340 and the evacuated region 310 by a tee. During the vacuum pumping operation, the pressure relief device 350 maintains the sealing state of the pipe 360 and the vacuum region 310. When the evacuation and sealing are finished or the user selects "after the program is stopped", the control unit 200 sends a signal to the pressure relief device 350, and the pressure relief device 350 opens the sealing valve of the pipeline 360, so that the external atmosphere enters the evacuation area 310 through the pipeline 360, and the pressure is released.
The plastic sealing part 330 may include a heating wire and a pressing rubber strip, which are respectively located at the outer sides of the upper vacuum chamber 311 and the lower vacuum chamber 312. And when the pressure value in the vacuumizing area 310 is determined to meet the preset condition, the heating wires and the pressing rubber strips perform hot-melt sealing on the storage bag.
Based on the structure of the refrigerator, fig. 6 shows a process of automatic vacuum-pumping plastic package, which specifically includes:
step 601, the input unit receives a vacuum packaging instruction issued by a user.
The input unit can receive a vacuum packaging instruction issued by a user, wherein the vacuum packaging instruction can be issued by the user through a control key on the refrigerator or a man-machine interaction device, or can be issued through a terminal device provided with an application program related to the refrigerator.
In step 602, the control unit controls the driving device to start, so that the upper vacuum chamber descends towards the lower vacuum chamber in the first stage and descends in the second stage respectively to clamp the storage bag in the refrigerator.
The process of controlling the driving device to drive the upper vacuum chamber to move towards the lower vacuum chamber by the control unit can be divided into two stages. Specifically, the process shown in fig. 7 includes:
in step 701, the upper vacuum chamber is lowered at a first speed for a first period.
The upper vacuum chamber moves to the lower vacuum chamber at a first speed under the driving of the driving device, which is a process that the upper vacuum chamber descends rapidly.
Step 702 is executed to determine whether the upper vacuum chamber is lowered to a first predetermined distance, if yes, the process proceeds to step 703, and if not, the process proceeds to step 701.
After the upper vacuum chamber moves to the first preset distance, the second stage of descending can be carried out.
In step 703, the upper vacuum chamber is lowered at a second speed for a second stage.
The upper vacuum chamber moves to the lower vacuum chamber at a second speed under the driving of the driving device, which is a slow descending stage to ensure the sealing performance of the upper vacuum chamber and the lower vacuum chamber.
Step 704, determine whether the upper vacuum chamber is lowered to a second predetermined distance, if yes, proceed to step 705, otherwise proceed to step 703.
After the upper vacuum chamber moves to the second preset distance, the upper vacuum chamber does not need to descend any more.
Step 705, the upper vacuum chamber stops descending, the pressure of the lower vacuum chamber is maintained, and the vacuum pumping stage is entered.
And after the upper vacuum cavity stops descending, the driving device stops driving, but keeps the output not closed, and keeps the downward pressure of the upper vacuum cavity, so that the vacuum pumping stage is started for vacuum pumping.
It should be noted that the first speed is greater than the second speed, the first preset distance, the second preset distance, the first speed and the second speed may be set empirically, and the first preset distance and the second preset distance may be implemented by controlling a preset number of steps of the electric motor.
In a specific implementation process, in combination with the structure shown in fig. 4, the driving device may drive the upper support to move in a direction approaching the lower support at a higher speed, so that the sealing ring in the first sealing groove on the upper support contacts the sealing ring in the second sealing groove on the lower support, and then move to the lower support at a lower speed until the sealing ring has a set deformation amount, and then stop. Specifically, the vacuum pump can be quickly lowered in the initial stage, and the vacuum pump is started after the upper sealing ring and the lower sealing ring are contacted; the vacuumizing packaging efficiency is improved; and the upper support moves downwards with low rotating speed and large acting force until the sealing ring has set deformation and stops, so that the sealing performance of the vacuum-pumping area can be improved, and the hidden danger that the vacuum-pumping area is too slow in vacuum-pumping or cannot be vacuumized due to air leakage is avoided.
The flow shown in fig. 7 may be a flow in which the upper vacuum chamber is lowered.
And 603, controlling a vacuum pump to start to vacuumize the vacuumized area by the control unit, and controlling the plastic packaging part to heat and package the storage bag when the pressure value of the vacuumized area meets the preset condition.
The preset condition can be one or any combination of the following conditions: the pressure value reaches a first pressure value; and the vacuumizing time reaches the preset vacuumizing time. In addition, an abnormal detection condition is set, and the abnormal detection condition can be that the pressure value reaches the second pressure value and the pressure value changes less than the third pressure value after the preset time. Wherein the first pressure value is greater than the second pressure value; the second pressure value is greater than the third pressure value. The first pressure value, the second pressure value, the third pressure value, the preset vacuumizing time and the preset time can be set according to experience.
Specifically, the vacuum pumping device 300 may be configured to stop the vacuum pumping of the vacuum pumping area when it is determined that the pressure value in the vacuum pumping area reaches the first pressure value or the vacuum pumping time reaches the preset vacuum pumping time. In addition, the vacuum-pumping device 300 can also determine that the pressure value in the vacuum-pumping area reaches the second pressure value and the pressure value in the preset time is changed to be smaller than the third pressure value in the vacuum-pumping process, determine that the vacuum-pumping is abnormal, stop the vacuum-pumping of the vacuum-pumping area, release the pressure of the vacuum-pumping area, and open the vacuum-pumping area.
After the upper vacuum chamber contacts with the lower vacuum chamber to clamp the storage bag, the control unit may execute a vacuum-pumping and plastic-sealing process, as shown in fig. 8, specifically, the process includes:
step 801, the vacuum packaging device determines whether the pressure value in the vacuuming area reaches a first pressure value, if so, step 806 is executed, otherwise, step 802 is executed.
The pressure sensing device in the vacuum packaging device can determine whether the pressure value in the vacuumizing area reaches a first pressure value or not, and after the pressure value in the vacuumizing area reaches the first pressure value, a pressure instruction is sent to the control unit, and the control unit controls the vacuum pump to stop vacuumizing.
In step 802, the control unit determines whether the vacuum pumping time reaches a preset vacuum pumping time, if so, the process goes to step 806, otherwise, the process goes to step 803.
The control unit may determine whether the evacuation time reaches a preset evacuation time, and control the vacuum pump to stop evacuation when it is determined that the preset evacuation time is reached.
In step 803, the vacuum packaging apparatus determines whether the pressure value in the vacuuming area reaches the second pressure value, if so, step 804 is performed, otherwise, step 801 is performed.
Step 804, the vacuum packaging device determines that the change of the pressure value in the vacuum-pumping area is smaller than a third pressure value after the preset time, if so, the step 805 is executed, otherwise, the step 801 is executed.
When the pressure value in the vacuumizing area reaches the second pressure value and the pressure value in the vacuumizing area changes to be smaller than the third pressure value after the preset time through the pressure sensing device, the vacuum packaging device determines that the vacuumizing process is abnormal, for example, the sealing of the pressing strip is poor, or foreign matters enter, the sealing is folded, the bag is broken and the like, and the vacuumizing needs to be finished in advance. At this time, an abnormal instruction may be issued to the control unit, and the control unit may control the vacuum pump to stop vacuum pumping.
Step 805, stopping vacuumizing, decompressing the vacuumizing area, and opening the vacuumizing area.
After the vacuum packaging device determines that the vacuumizing is abnormal, an abnormal instruction is sent to the control unit, and the control unit can control the vacuum pump to stop vacuumizing and control a pressure relief device in the vacuum packaging device to relieve pressure in a vacuumizing area.
And 806, stopping vacuumizing, and sealing and heating.
And step 807, delaying the first time to enter the air leakage stage after the heating operation of the seal reaches the set time.
After the control unit controls the plastic packaging part to heat and package the storage bag for the heating time, the air leakage stage can be started after the first time delay. The set time and the first time may be set empirically.
And after the control unit controls the plastic packaging part to heat and package the storage bag for a set time, the control unit controls the driving device to start, so that the upper vacuum cavity rises to the initial position at a third speed. This process may be referred to as a deflation process, and in particular, it can be seen that the process shown in fig. 9 includes:
and step 901, controlling the air leakage device to perform air leakage operation by the control unit.
And the control unit controls the air leakage device to open the valve to perform pipeline air leakage.
And step 902, the control unit determines whether the air leakage exceeds the air leakage time, if so, the step 903 is executed, and otherwise, the step 901 is executed. The deflation time may be set empirically.
In step 903, the control unit controls the driving device to start, so that the upper vacuum cavity rises.
The control unit can control the driving device to start, and drives the upper vacuum cavity to move upwards at a third speed to be separated from the lower vacuum cavity, so that the vacuum cavity is opened. Note that the third speed is higher than the second speed. The third speed may be set empirically.
In step 904, it is determined whether the upper vacuum chamber has risen to the predetermined number of steps, and if so, the process is terminated, otherwise, the process proceeds to step 903.
The control unit can judge whether the ascending of the upper vacuum cavity reaches the set step number, and is also equivalent to determining whether the upper vacuum cavity ascends to the initial position.
It should be noted that the above-mentioned flow of automatic vacuum-pumping and plastic-sealing shown in fig. 6 can be completed by one-key operation through a control key on the refrigerator. As shown in fig. 10, a user can implement the control panel of the refrigerator by using a "vacuum pumping and plastic packaging" key, and when the user clicks the "vacuum pumping and plastic packaging" key, which is equivalent to issuing a vacuum packaging instruction, the input unit can receive the vacuum packaging instruction issued by the user and send the vacuum packaging instruction to the control unit, so as to implement the flow of automatic vacuum pumping and plastic packaging as shown in fig. 6.
Optionally, the input unit may further receive a sealing instruction issued by a user, and the control unit controls the driving device to start after the input unit receives the sealing instruction issued by the user, so that the upper vacuum chamber descends towards the lower vacuum chamber in the first stage and descends in the second stage respectively to clamp the storage bag in the refrigerator, and controls the plastic sealing part to heat and plastically seal the storage bag.
The sealing instruction issued by the user can be implemented by a "sealing" button on the control panel of the refrigerator shown in fig. 10, and when the user clicks the "sealing" button, which is equivalent to issuing a sealing instruction, the input unit can receive the sealing instruction issued by the user and send the sealing instruction to the control unit, so as to implement the flow of descending the upper vacuum cavity shown in fig. 7 and the plastic packaging flow in the vacuum pumping plastic packaging flow shown in fig. 8.

Optionally, the input unit may further receive a manual vacuum pumping instruction issued by a user, the control unit determines whether the upper vacuum chamber and the lower vacuum chamber clamp the storage bag after the input unit receives the manual vacuum pumping instruction issued by the user, if so, controls the vacuum pump to start to pump the vacuum pumping area, and controls the vacuum pump to stop pumping the vacuum pumping area after the vacuum pump is started for a set time or after the input unit does not receive the manual vacuum pumping instruction; if not, the driving device is controlled to be started, the upper vacuum cavity is enabled to descend towards the lower vacuum cavity in the first stage and descend in the second stage respectively to clamp the storage bag in the refrigerator, then the vacuum pump is controlled to be started to vacuumize the vacuumized area, and the vacuum pump is controlled to stop vacuuming the vacuumized area after the vacuum pump is started for a set time or the input unit cannot receive a manual vacuumizing instruction. The starting set time of the vacuum pump can be set according to experience, for example, several seconds or dozens of seconds, and in the process of vacuumizing, a user needs to judge the vacuum degree of a vacuumizing area by himself.
The manual vacuum instruction issued by the user can be realized by a "manual vacuum" button on a control panel of the refrigerator shown in fig. 10, when the user clicks the "manual vacuum" button, the manual vacuum instruction is issued, and the input unit can receive the manual vacuum instruction issued by the user and send the manual vacuum instruction to the control unit, so as to realize a manual vacuum-pumping process. The user can click "manual evacuation" button by oneself according to the vacuum in the storing bag at the concrete implementation in-process and carry out the evacuation. For example, a "manual pump" button may be configured to automatically pump a few seconds at a time and then pump again until the user believes that the pump is complete. Or the user can press the manual vacuumizing key all the time, the manual vacuumizing key is vacuumized all the time when being pressed all the time, and the vacuumizing is stopped when the user stops pressing the manual vacuumizing key, so that the manual vacuumizing operation of the user is realized. Of course, before the control unit performs the manual vacuum pumping, it is necessary to determine whether the upper vacuum chamber and the lower vacuum chamber clamp the bag, and if not, it is necessary to perform the process of descending the upper vacuum chamber as shown in fig. 7.
Furthermore, after the control unit executes the manual vacuumizing instruction, the control unit can also receive a sealing instruction issued by a user, and then controls the plastic packaging part to heat and package the storage bag. Equivalently, after the user manually vacuumizes, the user can click a 'seal' button on the control panel shown in fig. 10, equivalently, a seal instruction is issued, the input unit can receive the seal instruction issued by the user and send the seal instruction to the control unit, and because the upper vacuum chamber and the lower vacuum chamber clamp the storage bag in the manual vacuuming process, the control unit only executes the plastic package flow in the vacuumizing plastic package flow shown in fig. 8, and the flow of descending the upper vacuum chamber shown in fig. 7 is not required to be executed.
In addition, the input unit can also receive a stop instruction issued by a user, the control unit controls the vacuum pump to stop vacuumizing the vacuumizing area or controls the plastic packaging part to stop heating and plastic packaging after determining that the input unit receives the stop instruction issued by the user, and controls the driving device to start, so that the upper vacuum cavity rises to the initial position at a third speed.
The stop instruction issued by the user can be implemented by a "stop" button on the control panel of the refrigerator shown in fig. 10, and when the user clicks the "stop" button, which is equivalent to issuing the stop instruction, the input unit can receive the stop instruction issued by the user and send the stop instruction to the control unit, so as to implement the air-bleeding process shown in fig. 9. When the user thinks that the vacuumizing packaging device determines that the vacuumizing is abnormal at the moment in the process of vacuumizing, the user realizes the process of ending the vacuumizing in advance by clicking the stop button. The specific steps have been described in detail in the above embodiments, and are not described herein again.
