if the current load is within the first preset load proportion range, prompting the user that the clothes adding instruction is that middle-amount clothes or multiple-amount clothes can be added;
if the current load is within the second preset load proportion range, prompting the user that the clothes adding instruction indicates that a small amount of clothes or a medium amount of clothes can be added;
if the current load is within the third preset load ratio range, prompting the user that a small amount of clothes can be added according to a clothes adding instruction;
and if the current load exceeds the upper limit of the third preset load proportion range, prompting that the clothes cannot be added midway.
As shown in fig. 2, is a logic for comparing a weight M of clothes according to a washing weight with a maximum washing capacity M of the washing machine. Preferably: the first preset load occupation ratio range is composed of 0-woven-fabric m-woven fabric (M/10), and when the 0-woven-fabric m-woven fabric (M/10), a user is prompted to add a 'less' load or a 'medium' load or a 'more' load halfway; second preset load occupation ratio ranges are M/10-M-type yarn-woven fabrics (M/3), and when the M/10-M-type yarn-woven fabrics (M/3), users are prompted to add 'few' load or 'medium' load halfway; a third preset load occupation range is formed by the number of the M/3-woven-cloth M-woven-cloth, and when the number of the M/3-woven-cloth M-woven-cloth is smaller than the number of the M/3-woven-cloth M-woven-cloth, a user is prompted to add less load midway; and when M exceeds M, prompting the user that clothes cannot be added halfway.
In some alternative ways, selecting the corresponding dressing judgment way according to the washing stage comprises:
and when the washing machine is in a rinsing stage, selecting the clothes adding judgment mode to judge whether midway clothes adding can be performed or not by combining the turbidity value, the current water level and the current rotating speed of the clothes treatment barrel.
Accordingly, the washing machine controlling the water level and the rotation speed of the laundry treating tub to satisfy the dressing permission condition and prompting that the dressing can be midway includes:
judging whether the turbidity value exceeds a preset turbidity value or not, and judging whether the clothes can be added midway or not according to a clothes adding judgment mode when the washing machine is in a main washing water inlet stage when the turbidity value exceeds the preset turbidity value; when the turbidity value does not exceed the preset turbidity value, judging whether the current water level of the clothes processing barrel exceeds the preset door lock opening water level, wherein:
if the current water level exceeds the preset door lock opening water level, draining all or part of water in the clothes treatment barrel, then temporarily storing the water so that the water level in the clothes treatment barrel is lower than the preset door lock opening water level, and after the clothes treatment barrel is decelerated, prompting a user that a small amount of clothes can be added or the clothes cannot be added midway; if the current water level does not exceed the preset door lock opening water level, the clothes adding indication of the user is prompted to be that a small amount of clothes can be added or the clothes cannot be added midway after the clothes treating barrel is decelerated.
In some optional modes, selecting the corresponding clothes adding judgment mode according to the washing stage comprises the following steps: when the washing machine is in the dewatering stage, the clothes adding judgment mode is that the default washing machine can not add clothes halfway.
Example 2
As shown in fig. 3, in the present embodiment, there is provided a washing machine including a controller configured to implement any one of the control methods of embodiment 1 to perform a mid-course laundry adding operation in a washing course.
Preferably, the washing machine further comprises:
a housing formed with an accommodation chamber;
a laundry treating tub disposed within the accommodating chamber;
a water tank for temporarily storing water discharged from the inside of the laundry treating tub during a midway laundry adding process, wherein: the water tank is arranged above the clothes treatment barrel and is provided with a water inlet channel and a water return channel which are respectively communicated with the clothes treatment barrel.
Preferably, the washing machine further comprises: and a detergent box for putting detergent into the laundry treatment tub. Wherein the detergent box is provided with a water return port communicated with the water return channel so as to lead the water in the water tank to flow back into the clothes treatment barrel through the detergent box.
In the clothes adding process of the washing machine in the embodiment, water in the clothes treatment barrel enters the water inlet channel (the water channel 1 in the figure) through the shunt valve and enters the water tank for temporary storage through the water inlet channel, and when clothes are added, the water feeding valve on the water return channel is opened, and the water returns to the clothes treatment barrel through the detergent box. The mode saves pipelines, reduces the change to the internal structure of the washing machine and further reduces the cost.
In the embodiment, the washing machine realizes the function of adding clothes in the middle through a logic control program under the condition that the structure of the door body is not changed.
When a user has clothes adding requirements in the main washing water inlet and rinsing stages, the user can click the option of 'midway clothes adding', the water level sensor firstly judges the water level, and if the water level is higher than the door opening water level at the moment, a water discharging program is operated. The partition valve of the drain pump opens the water inlet channel and delivers water to the dedicated water tank under the action of the drain pump. And when the water level sensor judges that the water level is lower than the door opening water level, closing the drainage pump to wait for the user to add clothes. After the user adds clothes, the user clicks start/pause, the water supply valve is switched from off to on, water in the water tank flows into the inner barrel from the detergent box, and the washing program is continuously operated.
It should be noted that the capacity of the dedicated water tank is obtained by the lowest door opening level, which is the level that can be reached when the load is at the highest level. In addition, a prompt module for adding clothes halfway can be optimized, an option of 'adding clothes halfway' is added in the conventional mode selection, when the mode is used, three displays of 'less', 'middle' and 'more' can be displayed on the display panel, a small amount of clothes can be added, a middle amount of clothes can be added and a large amount of clothes can be added correspondingly, when the logic judgment prompts that the user puts in clothes of corresponding levels, the corresponding load levels can flash and/or send corresponding voice prompts, and the user can be intuitively made to understand the put levels.
Based on the control method in embodiment 1, a specific operation process of the washing machine is also provided in this embodiment. When a user puts forward a requirement of adding clothes halfway, the drum washing machine firstly judges that the washing machine is in a washing process state, if the washing process of the washing machine is at or before washing weighing, the rotating speed of the washing machine is reduced to 50rpm or below, the door lock is opened, and the display module prompts the user to add clothes halfway, and weighing, water inlet, washing, rinsing and dewatering are carried out again.
When the washing flow of the washing machine is in a main washing water inlet stage, whether the current water level SW is smaller than a preset door lock opening water level SW1 or not is judged, if SW is larger than SW1, a drainage pump is opened to discharge water to a special water tank, after clothes are added halfway, the water can be pumped back into a cylinder, and then washing weighing data M and the maximum washing capacity M of the washing machine are compared. If SW < SW1, the inner drum of the washing machine is reduced to 50rpm or below; then it is performed whether the washing stage remaining time Tx is greater than half the total washing stage time T. If Tx is greater than T/2, the clothes weight M obtained by washing weighing is compared with the maximum washing capacity M of the washing machine, and then the user is prompted to put in the level of the load. If Tx < T/2, the user is directly prompted to deliver only "few" levels of load without comparing the values of M and M.
As shown in fig. 2, is a logic for comparing a weight M of clothes according to a washing weight with a maximum washing capacity M of the washing machine. When 0-m-n/10, users are prompted to add "little" load or "medium" load or "much" load halfway; when the M/10-woven fabric-M-woven fabric is woven fabric-M/3, prompting a user to add a 'less' load or a 'medium' load in the middle; when the M/3-woven fabric (M) woven fabric (M), prompting a user to add less load in the midway; otherwise, the user is prompted that the clothes cannot be added halfway.
When the washing machine stage enters the rinsing stage, when a user has a requirement for adding clothes halfway, the turbidity value is judged before the door lock is opened, besides the water level and the washing time, the voltage value at the moment is judged by the turbidity sensor to be compared with the clear water voltage, and the reference voltage U1 (general) and U2 (dirtier) with 2 grades of pollution turbidity of the turbidity sensor are set. When U0> U2, the water level and the washing time are judged immediately to determine the load level of the clothes put in by the user. When U0< U2, the current main washing solution is in a dirty state, and the rotating speed is reduced to 50rpm or below, so that the user is prompted to throw the 'less' load or no load.
In the rinsing stage and after the rinsing stage, if the user has a demand for clothes halfway, the "rinsing dehydration" program is directly run. If the user has the requirement of adding clothes in the middle of the dehydration stage, the 'single dehydration' program is directly operated.
"Low" load for prompt drops indicates: the clothes with the weight below M/10 can be roughly smaller clothes such as socks, towels and the like.
