Background
A refrigerator, which is a common consumer product, uses a compressor to drive a refrigerant to circulate through a pipeline, and cools air in each storage space to keep food fresh or frozen.
The refrigerator is generally divided into a refrigerating chamber and a freezing chamber in structure, each chamber is provided with an air inlet, an air return opening, a fan and an evaporator chamber, the air inlet and the air outlet are respectively communicated with the evaporator chamber, an evaporator is arranged in the evaporator chamber, and each evaporator is communicated with a compressor. The compressor compresses the refrigerant into high-pressure gas, the high-pressure gas passes through the evaporator to exchange heat with air in the evaporator chamber, the refrigerant is gasified to absorb heat, the temperature of the air in the evaporator chamber is reduced, cold air is formed, air convection is driven by the fan, and the cold air generated by the evaporator is conveyed to the corresponding compartment. The air door is arranged on the pipeline of the compressor and the refrigerating chamber evaporator and can be driven to be opened or closed by the air door motor according to a control signal so as to control the temperature of the refrigerating chamber.
In the refrigerator with the structure, when the temperature of one sensor of the refrigerating chamber or the freezing chamber is higher than a set target temperature, the control panel sends a signal to drive the compressor to work, and the evaporator continuously absorbs ambient heat and cools ambient air; the fan is also started to operate, cool air is continuously delivered to each compartment, and hot air in each compartment is delivered to the evaporator chamber through the circulating air duct to be cooled, so that cool air circulation is formed between the evaporator chamber and the refrigerating chamber or the freezing chamber, and the temperature of each compartment is continuously reduced. When the temperature of the refrigerating chamber is reduced to the target temperature, the air door motor drives the air door to be closed, and other chambers are continuously refrigerated; when the freezer temperature also drops to the target temperature, the compressor and fan are stopped and no further cooling is performed. By doing so, the temperature of each compartment of the refrigerator is maintained within the temperature range set by the user.
However, the current refrigerator cannot monitor the operation state of the damper motor, once the damper motor fails, the refrigerator is abnormally cooled and cannot normally work, and further cannot give a clear indication of the failure state of the damper motor, so that a user can only initiatively contact with after-sales repair, and the refrigerator is repaired according to experience after sales, thereby causing low maintenance efficiency, high maintenance cost and poor user experience.

In addition, the technical features involved in the embodiments of the present invention described below may be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, the refrigerator 100 includes a refrigerator main body 10, a damper motor 20, a heater 30, and a controller 40, and the controller 40 is connected to the refrigerator main body 10, the damper motor 20, and the heater 30, respectively.
The refrigerator main body 10 includes a refrigerating chamber 11, a freezing chamber 12, a temperature measuring device and a refrigerating device (not shown), and the temperature measuring device and the refrigerating device are disposed inside the refrigerator main body 10. The refrigerating chamber 11 and the freezing chamber 12 are used to receive items, such as food, respectively. The refrigerating device is a core component for refrigerating the refrigerator, and is used for refrigerating the refrigerating chamber and the freezing chamber. Specifically, refrigerating plant includes compressor, walk-in evaporimeter, freezer evaporimeter and two fans, and each evaporimeter all is located the evaporimeter room that corresponds, and the fan is installed respectively in evaporimeter room one side, walk-in evaporimeter room and walk-in intercommunication, freezer evaporimeter room and freezer intercommunication, walk-in evaporimeter and freezer evaporimeter respectively with the compressor intercommunication, wherein, be provided with the air door on the pipeline of compressor and walk-in evaporimeter, the air door can be opened or close by air door motor drive according to control signal to whether the control refrigerant flows in the walk-in evaporimeter.
Specifically, for refrigerating the refrigerating chamber, the refrigerant is compressed into a high-pressure gas state by the compressor, and then passes through the refrigerating chamber evaporator to exchange heat with air in the refrigerating chamber evaporator chamber, the refrigerant is gasified to absorb heat, so that the temperature of the air in the refrigerating chamber evaporator chamber is reduced, namely cold air is formed, and then the fan blows and convects to convey the cold air to the refrigerating chamber. To the refrigeration of freezer, through the compressor compresses into high-pressure gaseous with the refrigerator, passes through the freezer evaporimeter again, with the air in the freezer evaporimeter room carries out the heat exchange, and refrigerant gasification heat absorption makes the air temperature in the freezer evaporimeter room reduces, forms cold air promptly, and the rethread fan blast convection carries cold air extremely the freezer.
For the temperature control of the refrigerating chamber, the opening and closing degree of the damper is controlled by the damper motor 20, and the temperature of the refrigerating chamber 11 can be controlled. Specifically, the air door is installed in a rectangular frame, the rectangular frame is installed on a pipeline between the compressor and the refrigerating chamber evaporator, the air door motor 20 drives the air door to swing through a set of gear reduction transmission mechanism, and the opening degree of the air door is controlled through positive and negative rotation and pulse step number of the air door motor, so that the flow of refrigerant entering the refrigerating chamber evaporator is controlled, and the temperature of the refrigerating chamber 11 of the refrigerator is further controlled.
The heater 30 is used for heating the damper motor 20, so as to prevent the damper motor 20 from being stuck due to icing. It is understood that the heater 30 may be a heating wire, and of course, in some embodiments, the heater 30 may be integrated with the damper motor.
The temperature measuring device is used for detecting the temperature of the refrigerating chamber 11, and it can be understood that the temperature measuring device can be a temperature sensor. When the temperature in the refrigerating chamber 11 measured by the temperature measuring device is higher than a predetermined target temperature, the controller 40 controls the damper motor to be turned on to open the damper, thereby cooling the air in the refrigerating chamber 11 and lowering the temperature of the refrigerating chamber 11 to the target temperature. When the temperature in the refrigerating chamber 11 measured by the temperature measuring device is lower than the target temperature, the controller 40 controls the damper motor 20 to close, so that the damper is closed, thereby stopping cooling the air in the refrigerating chamber 11 and keeping the temperature of the refrigerating chamber 11 at the target temperature.
As can be seen from the above, the normal operation of the damper motor 20 determines the temperature in the refrigerating chamber 11, and if the damper motor 20 fails, the refrigerator 100 may be abnormally cooled and may not normally operate. In this embodiment, the controller 40 may detect the state of the damper motor 20 in real time through the temperature of the refrigerating compartment detected by the temperature measuring device. And, when the air door motor 20 is stuck due to freezing, the air door motor can be heated by the heater 30, so as to eliminate the problem of freezing and sticking.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 3, the controller 40 includes at least one processor 41 (one processor is illustrated in fig. 2) and a memory 42 communicatively coupled via a system bus or otherwise.
The processor 41 is configured to provide computing and control capabilities to control the refrigerator 100 to perform corresponding tasks, for example, to control the refrigerator 100 to perform any one of the methods for detecting the state of the refrigerator damper motor according to the embodiments of the present invention described below.
The memory 42, which is a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, can be used to store non-transitory software programs, non-transitory computer executable programs, and modules, such as program instructions/modules corresponding to the method for detecting the state of the damper motor of a refrigerator in the embodiment of the present invention. The processor 41 may implement the method of detecting the state of the refrigerator damper motor in any of the method embodiments described below by executing non-transitory software programs, instructions, and modules stored in the memory 42. In particular, the memory 42 may include high speed random access memory, and may also include non-transitory memory, such as at least one magnetic disk storage device, flash memory device, or other non-transitory solid state storage device. In some embodiments, memory 42 may also include memory located remotely from the processor, which may be connected to the processor via a network. Examples of such networks include, but are not limited to, the internet, intranets, local area networks, mobile communication networks, and combinations thereof.
It should be noted that the structure of the refrigerator 100 is only for exemplary illustration, and in an exemplary application, the method for detecting the state of the damper motor of the refrigerator provided by the following embodiments of the invention may be further extended to other suitable refrigerators, not limited to the refrigerator shown in fig. 1, for example, to a refrigerator including a temperature changing chamber.
Referring to fig. 4, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for detecting a state of a motor of a refrigerator door, as shown in fig. 4, the method S20 includes, but is not limited to, the following steps:
s23: and acquiring a temperature sequence of the refrigerating chamber in a preset time period of the same refrigerating cycle.
S24: and determining the state of the air door motor according to the variation trend of the temperature in the temperature sequence, wherein the state comprises a fault state or a working state, the fault state comprises an opening fault or a closing fault, and the working state comprises normal opening or normal closing.
As can be seen from the control of the refrigerating operation of the refrigerating chamber, the refrigerating operation of the refrigerating chamber is intermittent, the refrigerating chamber is refrigerated when the temperature in the refrigerating chamber is higher than the target temperature, and the refrigerating operation is stopped when the temperature in the refrigerating chamber is lower than the target temperature, that is, the temperature of the refrigerating chamber is maintained at the target temperature. The refrigerating chamber is in a continuous refrigerating state, or the refrigerating chamber is in a continuous non-refrigerating state.
The temperature sequence may be obtained during a preset time period when the refrigerating compartment is in a certain continuous refrigerating state, for example, when the refrigerating compartment is in a refrigerating state during a preset time period T, temperatures are collected every 1 minute for 1 minute to 3 minutes of the preset time period T to obtain a temperature sequence [ T1, T2, T3], or temperatures are collected every 1 minute for 2 minutes to 4 minutes of the preset time period T to obtain a temperature sequence, or temperatures are collected every 2 minutes or 0.5 minutes for the preset time period T to obtain a temperature sequence [ T1, T2.
Similarly, the temperature sequence may be obtained during a preset time period when the refrigerating compartment is in a certain continuous non-refrigerating state, for example, when the refrigerating compartment is in a non-refrigerating state during a preset time period P, the temperature sequence [ P1, P2, P3] is obtained by collecting the temperature every 1 minute from 1 minute to 3 minutes of the preset time period P, or the temperature sequence [ P1, p2..
The variation trend of the temperature sequence can reflect the refrigeration condition of the refrigerating chamber, and the refrigeration condition is controlled by the air door motor. Thus, the state of the damper motor can be determined to be one of a normal open, an open failure, a normal close, and a close failure according to the trend of the temperature sequence.
In this embodiment, the temperature sequence of the refrigeration chamber within the preset time period of the same refrigeration cycle is obtained, and according to the variation trend of the temperature sequence, the state of the air door motor can be determined to be one of the normal opening fault, the normal closing fault and the closing fault.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, the temperature sequence includes a first temperature sequence, and the step S23 includes:
s231: the method comprises the steps of obtaining a first temperature sequence of a refrigerating chamber in a first preset time period, wherein the refrigerating chamber is in a refrigerating state in the first preset time period.
The first temperature sequence is a temperature sequence obtained within the first preset time period when the refrigerating chamber is in a refrigerating state. Since the refrigerating chamber is in a refrigerating state in the first preset time period, the first temperature sequence can reflect the operation state of the damper motor when the refrigerating chamber is in the refrigerating state.
That is, in this embodiment, it is determined that the state of the damper motor when the refrigerating compartment is in the cooling state is the normal open or the open failure, by the trend of the first temperature sequence.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 6, the step S24 includes:
step S241: and if the temperature in the first temperature sequence is in gradient decreasing, determining that the state of the air door motor is normally opened, otherwise, determining that the state of the air door motor is in an opening fault.
For example, if t1> t2> t3 in the first temperature sequence [ t1, t2, t3] indicates that cold air is continuously input into the refrigerating chamber, the damper motor is normally opened, and the damper is normally opened. If t1< t2< t3, t1< t2, t2> t3, t1> t2 and t2< t3 in the first temperature sequence [ t1, t2 and t3], the cold air input in the refrigerating chamber is blocked, and therefore, the opening fault of the air door motor can be determined, and the air door is not normally opened.
In this embodiment, whether the damper motor is normally open or has an open fault may be determined by whether the temperatures in the first temperature sequence are decreasing in gradient.
It is understood that in other embodiments, the functional relationship of the temperatures in the first temperature sequence can be set according to the refrigeration characteristics of the refrigeration device to determine whether the state of the damper motor is normal opening or opening failure. For example, when the cold air output of the refrigeration device converges after monotonically increasing, the temperature in the first temperature sequence monotonically decreases and then converges.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 5, the temperature sequence further includes a second temperature sequence, and the step S23 further includes:
s232: and acquiring a second temperature sequence of the refrigerating chamber in a second preset time period, wherein the refrigerating chamber is in an uncooled state in the second preset time period.
The second temperature sequence is a temperature sequence obtained within the second preset time period when the refrigerating chamber is in an uncooled state. Since the refrigerating chamber is in the non-refrigeration state in the second preset time period, the variation trend of the second temperature sequence can reflect the operation state of the damper motor when the refrigerating chamber is in the non-refrigeration state.
That is, in this embodiment, it is determined that the state of the damper motor when the refrigerating compartment is in the non-cooling state is the normal closing or the closing failure, by the trend of the second temperature sequence.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 6, the step S24 further includes:
s242: and if the temperature in the second temperature sequence is increased in a gradient mode, determining that the state of the air door motor is normally closed, otherwise, determining that the state of the air door motor is a closed fault.
For example, if p1< p2< p3 in the second temperature sequence [ p1, p2, p3] indicates that there is no cold air input in the refrigerating chamber, and the cold air in the refrigerating chamber is continuously emitted, for example, the food in the refrigerating chamber is heat-exchanged with the outside air and there is no cold air input, resulting in an increase in temperature in the refrigerating chamber. At the moment, the state of the air door motor is normally closed, so that the air door is normally closed. If the p1> p2> p3, p1> p2, p2< p3, or p1< p2, p2> p3 in the second temperature sequence [ p1, p2, p3], the cold air input in the refrigerating chamber is indicated, so that the condition that the fan is not normally closed and a closing fault occurs can be determined, and the air door is not normally closed.
In this embodiment, whether the damper motor is normally closed or has a closed fault may be determined by whether the temperatures in the second temperature sequence are decreasing in gradient.
It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the temperature function of the second temperature sequence may be set based on the closed position of the damper to determine whether the damper motor is normally closed or has a closed fault. For example, when the damper is slowly closed at a constant speed, the temperature in the second temperature sequence is increased at a monotonous constant speed.
In some embodiments, the refrigerator includes a heater, and referring to fig. 7, the method further includes:
s25: when detecting for the first time the state of air door motor is fault state, control the refrigerating plant stop work of refrigerator, and control the heater is right air door motor heating third is preset for a long time.
In daily use, the refrigerator is always in an operating state, so that a cooling state and a non-cooling state are alternately performed for the refrigerating chamber to maintain the temperature of the refrigerating chamber as a target temperature. That is, the collection of the temperature sequence and the detection of the air door motor are continuously carried out, so that the effect of real-time monitoring is achieved.
It can be understood that, since the damper motor is close to the refrigerating chamber evaporator, i.e., is always in a low temperature environment, the damper motor is easily frozen, and thus, the frozen damper motor may also have the above-mentioned fault condition. In this case, if the user performs after-sales repair without knowing that the problem is merely freezing, user time and repair costs are wasted. In order to solve the problem of freezing and blocking, in the embodiment, when the state of the air door motor is detected for the first time and is in a fault state, the refrigerating device of the refrigerator is controlled to stop working, namely the refrigerator stops refrigerating, and the heater is controlled to heat the air door motor for a third preset time so as to eliminate the problem of freezing and blocking. The first detection that the state of the air door motor is the fault state means that the air door motor is firstly detected in a certain refrigeration cycle that the state of the air door motor is the fault state.
In this embodiment, the fault state may be an open fault or a closed fault. For example, detect for the first time the state of air door motor is for opening the trouble, then the air door motor probably appears freezing the card problem of dying, and leads to the state of air door motor for opening the trouble, and the air door can not normally be opened, in order to get rid of the freezing card problem of dying, control the heater is right air door motor heating third is predetermine for a long time, for example, heats 5 minutes to get rid of the freezing of air door motor, on the one hand, can make open the trouble automatic recovery, make the air door motor normally opens, on the other hand is of value to the accuracy that improves follow-up detection.
For another example, when detecting for the first time the state of air door motor is closed trouble, then the air door motor probably appears freezing the card problem of dying, and leads to the state of air door motor for closed trouble, and the air door can not normally be closed, and in order to get rid of freezing the card and die, control the heater is right air door motor heating third is predetermineeing for a long time, for example, heats 5 minutes to get rid of the icing of air door motor, on the one hand, can make closed trouble self-repairing makes the air door motor normally closes, and on the other hand is of value to the accuracy that improves follow-up detection.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 7, the method further comprises:
s26: and detecting the state of the air door motor again, if the state of the air door motor is still in a fault state, determining that the fault state is a destructive fault, and otherwise, determining that the fault state is an accidental fault.
And the step of detecting the state of the air door motor again refers to the step of continuously detecting the air door motor for many times after the air door motor is heated when the fault state is detected in a certain refrigeration cycle. And if the state of the air door motor is still a fault state, determining that the fault state is a destructive fault, otherwise, determining that the fault state is an accidental fault. For the destructive fault, the air door motor cannot be repaired after being heated, and for the accidental fault, the air door motor can be automatically repaired after being heated, namely, the accidental fault is the freezing and blocking problem. For example, when the refrigerating chamber is in a refrigerating state, the state of the damper motor is detected as an opening fault for the first time, the refrigerating device is controlled to stop working, the damper motor is heated for 5 minutes, the damper motor is detected after heating, if the detection result of the second detection or the third detection is the fault state, the first detected fault state is a destructive fault, and if the detection result of the second detection or the third detection is normal opening, the first detected fault state is an accidental fault and is repaired by heating.
In some embodiments, referring to fig. 7, the method further comprises:
s27: and prompting the destructive fault.
Work as the air door motor breaks down, can not be through when heating is restoreed, then right the suggestion is made to the destructiveness trouble to make things convenient for the user to know the air door motor and break down, and in time the maintenance, can also improve maintenance efficiency. It is understood that the prompt may be a voice prompt, a display pattern or a text prompt, etc.
In order to improve the accuracy of the detection, in some embodiments, referring to fig. 8, before the step of obtaining the temperature sequence of the refrigerator compartment within the preset time period, the method further includes:
s21: and (4) confirming whether the working state of the refrigerating device is normal working, and if so, executing step S22.
