Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the invention, as detailed in the appended claims.

Example one

Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a refrigerator energy saving control method according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the method including:

step S1, collecting the running state of the refrigerator in a preset time period;

step S2, judging the current energy-saving level of the refrigerator according to the running state;

and step S3, displaying the energy saving level.

It should be noted that the technical solution provided by this embodiment is applicable to refrigerators. The preset time period is set according to the user requirements, or set according to experimental data, or set according to historical experience values. For example, every 2 minutes.

The operating state includes at least one of:

In a specific practice, the judging the current energy saving level of the refrigerator according to the running state includes:

Preferably, the scoring for each operating state separately comprises:

referring to table one, the higher the temperature set in the cold room, the higher the corresponding score.

Temperature (unit:. degree. C.)	2	3	4	5	6	7	8
								Score value	6	8	10	12	14	16	18

Table one referring to table two, the higher the temperature set for the freezer compartment, the higher the corresponding score.

Referring to table three, the higher the compressor speed, the lower the corresponding score.

Rotational speed	S1	S2	S3	S4	S5	S6	S7	S8
									Score value	18	16	14	12	10	8	6	4

Watch III

In table three, S1 indicates that the rotation speed is first gear, and the corresponding rotation speed is lowest; s2 indicates that the rotational speed is in second gear, and the corresponding rotational speeds are sequentially increased. When the temperature of the refrigerating chamber or the freezing chamber is adjusted to be low, the rotating speed of the fan is increased, the rotating speed of the compressor is increased, the power consumption is increased, and the corresponding score is reduced.

See table four, the higher the turnover beam energization rate, the lower the corresponding score.

Rate of current flow	10％	20％	30％	40％	50％	60％	70％	80％	90％	100％
											Score value	20	18	16	14	12	10	8	6	4	2

Watch four

It can be understood that the reason why the energizing rate of the flip beam is high is that the temperature and humidity are high, and in order to prevent the generation of condensation, the power consumption is increased when the energizing rate is increased, and the corresponding score is lowered.

See table five, the higher the freezing fan speed, the lower the corresponding score.

Watch five

Looking up a table six, when the on-off state of the heater is on, scores are correspondingly given;

Switch with a switch body	Is opened	Close off
			Score value	0	10

Watch six

It can be understood that when the refrigerator is defrosted, the heater is turned on, the power is large, the power consumption is increased, and the corresponding energy-saving score is 0; when the refrigerator is not defrosted, the heater is turned off, the power consumption of the refrigerator is reduced, and the corresponding energy-saving score is 10.

In a specific practice, the displaying the energy saving level includes:

In a specific practice, the energy-saving indicator can directly reuse an ECO display icon of an existing refrigerator.

Referring to fig. 2, the energy-saving mark is located on the display panel of the refrigerator and corresponds to four energy-saving levels, the numerical values of 1-4 are sequentially increased clockwise, and the higher the numerical value is, the higher the corresponding energy-saving level is.

In specific practice, after the system is started, the user turns on the energy-saving identifier, and the energy-saving identifier corresponding to the lowest energy-saving level is turned on by default. And then, the system carries out energy-saving grade evaluation again according to the current running state of the refrigerator, and lights corresponding energy-saving marks according to the evaluation result.
