It can be understood that, when the laundry treating apparatus is in the remote control mode, if any one of the foregoing

steps

209, 211 to 214 occurs, the laundry treating apparatus exits the remote control mode, so as to reduce safety accidents caused by the situation of the operator at the laundry treating apparatus end, which is not clear to the remote controller, and to improve the safety of the remote control.

In some embodiments, the control method further comprises:

It is understood that, after the laundry treating apparatus exits the remote control mode, the laundry treating apparatus may be further controlled to enter the remote control mode based on the switch of the remote communication module. For example, the user may press the Remote key for 3 seconds, generating an instruction authorizing the Remote control mode, and the laundry treating apparatus may start the Remote control mode based on the authorized instruction.

In some embodiments, the control method further comprises:

Here, the starting-up instruction may be understood as an instruction for remotely starting up the operation of the clothing processing apparatus, and the starting-up time may be understood as a time when the clothing processing apparatus receives the starting-up instruction or a time corresponding to a timestamp carried in the starting-up instruction.

It can be understood that based on the control method, the clothes treatment device can be started by one key based on the remotely sent starting instruction, so that intelligent washing of the clothes treatment device in a remote control mode is realized, and complicated operation set by a user can be omitted.

It is understood that the laundry treating apparatus stores in advance operation data of the operation program, for example, the identification of the operation program and the start time, which have been most recently operated, for a set number of times. For example, the identifier of each running program may be generated based on the code for the set various running programs. For example, the set running program includes: the first mode of standard washing, the second mode of quick washing, the third mode of children washing, the fourth mode of cotton and linen washing and the like can assign unique identification to the running programs of all modes, so that the identification corresponds to the codes of the corresponding prestored running programs one by one.

It should be noted that, the historical operating data may only keep the identifiers and the starting times of the operating programs that have been operated for a set number of times recently, which may reduce the storage space occupied by the historical operating data, and may also enable the historical operating data to reflect the recent usage habits of the user.

Illustratively, the set number can be reasonably set based on requirements, so that the historical operating data can reflect the recent use habits of users, the data volume is reasonable, and the data storage volume and the subsequent matching operating volume are reduced. In addition, in the use process of the clothes treatment equipment, the use habits of the user often change along with seasonal changes, so that in the embodiment of the application, the historical operation data only keep the operation data which is recently operated for a set number of times, the accuracy of intelligently determining the current operation program of the clothes treatment equipment is improved, and the current actual washing requirement of the user can be met.

In some embodiments, determining the running program in the historical running data, which matches the boot-up time, based on comparing the boot-up time with the pre-stored historical running data includes:

Illustratively, determining the running program in the historical running data, which matches the boot-up time, based on the absolute value includes:

if the absolute value is less than or equal to the set duration, determining that the target starting time is matched with the starting time, and taking the running program of the target starting time as the matched running program;

For example, the set time period may be determined based on analysis of big data of the laundry treatment apparatus obtained by the network, for example, the set time period may be reasonably determined based on analysis of the age, the region, the usage scene, and the like of the user based on the big data. In an application example, the set time length may be 15 minutes, that is, if the target starting time closest to the starting time falls within 15 minutes before and after the starting time, it is determined that the running program at the target starting time is a matching running program.

It can be understood that, if the historical operating data does not satisfy the operating program matched with the boot time, based on the frequency of use of the operating program in the historical operating data, the operating program with the largest frequency of use is selected as the matched operating program. Therefore, on the premise of selecting the matched running program based on the starting time, the running program with the largest use frequency is selected as the current running program based on the use frequency of the running programs in the historical running data, so that the current actual washing requirement of a user is met as much as possible, and the operation of the user is saved.

It can be understood that the control method of the embodiment of the application effectively improves the intelligent degree of the clothes treatment equipment, and for older users, because the users may be difficult to set relevant parameters such as washing in a remote control mode, the trouble of setting a washing program for the older users can be saved based on the control method of the embodiment of the application.

Exemplarily, the control method further comprises:

and updating the historical operating data based on the identification of the current operating program and the starting time.

It is understood that, after the laundry treating apparatus is started based on the matched operation program, the laundry treating apparatus may update the historical operation data based on the identification of the current operation program and the starting time, i.e. the identification of the current operation program and the starting time are added to the historical operation data as the last usage record. Alternatively, the oldest usage record in the historical operating data may be removed such that the historical operating data only retains the identification and start time of the most recently operated operating programs a set number of times.

In some embodiments, the control method further comprises:

pre-storing the corresponding relation between the program code and the identification of each running program;

the controlling the laundry treating apparatus to operate based on the matched operation program includes:

calling the corresponding running program based on the identifier of the matched running program;

controlling the laundry treating apparatus to operate based on the called operation program.

It can be understood that the clothes treatment equipment stores the corresponding relation between the program code and the identification of each operation program in advance, so that historical operation data only need to record the identification and the starting time of the historical operation program, and control parameters of the historical operation program do not need to be recorded, and therefore the storage space occupied by the historical operation data can be reduced, and the data occupation amount and the processing amount are reduced.

The present application will be described in further detail with reference to the following application examples.

As shown in fig. 3, in the present application embodiment, the control method of the laundry treatment apparatus includes:

step 301, obtaining a boot time.

For example, in the remote control mode, the laundry processing device determines a corresponding starting time based on the remote control terminal device sending a starting instruction to the laundry processing device.

In step 302, historical operating data, such as 15 consecutive runs, is obtained.

Illustratively, the laundry treating apparatus stores operation data of 15 times of the latest operation in advance, for example:

quick washing for 15 minutes; 08;

quickly washing for 15 minutes; 08;

quick washing for 15 minutes; 09;

quickly washing for 45 minutes; 09;

quick washing for 15 minutes; 08;

cotton and hemp; 08;

quickly washing for 45 minutes; 08;

quick washing for 15 minutes; 08;

mixing; 09;

quickly washing for 45 minutes; 11, operating;

quick washing for 15 minutes; 12, 15 operation.

For example, the historical operating data may include identification of the operating program and the starting time, so that the memory space occupied by the historical operating data may be reduced.

Step 303, judging whether an operating program matched with the starting-up time exists, if not, executing step 304; if yes, go to step 305.

Illustratively, the determining whether there is an operating program matching the boot time includes:

selecting a target starting time closest to the starting time from the starting times of the 15-time running programs which are run recently;

and if the absolute value is less than or equal to 15 minutes, determining that the target starting time is matched with the starting time, and taking the running program of the target starting time as the matched running program.

For example, if the starting time of the laundry treatment apparatus is 8. If the starting time of the laundry processing apparatus is 17.

And step 304, determining a matched running program based on the use frequency.

Illustratively, determining a matching operating program based on frequency of use includes:

counting the use times of the same running programs in the running programs which are run recently and are set in number;

and taking the running program with the maximum use times as the matched running program.

For example, in the 15-time operation data of the last operation, if the number of usage times of the quick wash score 15 is the largest, the quick wash score 15 is regarded as the matched operation program, and step 305 is executed.

And 305, controlling the operation of the clothes treatment equipment based on the matched operation program.

For example, the clothes treatment device may control the operation of the clothes treatment device based on the matched operation program in the remote control mode, and thus, the operation may be started by one key based on a power-on instruction sent by the remote control terminal device.

And step 306, updating the historical operating data based on the identification and the starting time of the current operating program.

For example, after the laundry treating apparatus is started based on the matched operation program, the laundry treating apparatus may update the historical operation data based on the identification of the current operation program and the starting time, i.e., add the identification of the current operation program and the starting time to the historical operation data as the last usage record. Alternatively, the oldest usage record in the historical operating data may be removed, so that the historical operating data only retains the identification and start time of the most recently operated operating program for a set number of times.

It is understood that, in the remote control mode, if the aforementioned target event occurs in the clothes treating apparatus, the remote control mode is exited, and the detailed description thereof is omitted.
