In detail, the cold water temperature detecting unit 17 may be disposed at an end of the cold water pipe 101 connected to the water heater 100 away from the water heater 100, and the cold water pipe 101 is preferably exposed to the outside. In addition, the cold water temperature detection unit 17 can be used to replace the aforementioned inlet water temperature detection unit 13, or the cold water temperature detection unit 17 is disposed on an end of the cold water pipe 101 connected to the water heater 100 away from the water heater 100, and the aforementioned The inlet water temperature detection unit 13 is disposed at an end or inside of the cold water pipe 101 connected to the water heater 100 near the water heater 100. Due to the high temperature in summer, the cold water temperature in the cold water pipe 101 will be higher, and the cold winter temperature will cause the cold water temperature in the cold water pipe 101 to be lower. Through the cold water temperature detection unit 17, the cold water pipe can be detected Cold water temperature in road 101.
紀錄單元18用於根據冷水溫度訊號，紀錄進入熱水器100的冷水溫，並產生紀錄資訊。紀錄單元18可為一以資料儲存載體型態呈現的紀錄單元18。 The recording unit 18 is configured to record the cold water temperature entering the water heater 100 according to the cold water temperature signal and generate record information. The recording unit 18 may be a recording unit 18 presented in the form of a data storage carrier.
統計單元19用於根據紀錄資料，統計一預定時間周期內熱水 器100的冷水溫，並產生統計資訊。在本實施例中，預定時間周期可為三日或一周，或由使用者設定時間周期。統計單元19可為一以軟體型態或模組型態呈現的統計單元。 The counting unit 19 is used for counting hot water in a predetermined time period based on the recorded data The cold water temperature of the device 100 and generates statistical information.

The statistical unit 19 may be a statistical unit presented in a software type or a module type.
條件判斷單元21用於根據統計資訊，判斷在預定時間周期內熱水器100的冷水溫的變化是否滿足季節性調溫條件。並且，控制單元16用於當條件判斷單元21判斷出有滿足季節性調溫條件時，調整加熱單元11的輸出功率，以自動調節熱水器100的出水溫。條件判斷單元21可為一以軟體型態或模組型態呈現的條件判斷單元。 The condition judging unit 21 is configured to judge whether a change in the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 satisfies a seasonal temperature adjustment condition in a predetermined time period according to statistical information. In addition, the control unit 16 is configured to adjust the output power of the heating unit 11 when the condition judging unit 21 determines that the seasonal temperature adjustment condition is satisfied, so as to automatically adjust the water temperature of the water heater 100. The condition judging unit 21 may be a condition judging unit presented in a software type or a module type.
進一步來說，在本實施例中，統計單元19可用於統計出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的高低，以產生前述統計資訊。並且，為了達到判斷出目前的季節以根據季節的變化來自動調節出水溫，季節性調溫條件係為統計出的熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化大於等於一夏季冷水溫預設值或小於等於一冬季冷水溫預設值，並且由於夏季氣溫高，使得夏季冷水溫預設值會大於冬季冷水溫預設值。因此，當條件判斷單元21判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化大於等於夏季冷水溫預設值(例如25℃)，即判斷有滿足季節性調溫條件其中一條件，而當條件判斷單元21判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化小於等於冬季冷水溫預設值(例如13℃)，即判斷有滿足季節性調溫條件其中另一條件。 Further, in this embodiment, the statistics unit 19 may be configured to calculate the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined period of time, to generate the aforementioned statistical information. In addition, in order to determine that the current season is to automatically adjust the water temperature according to the change of the season, the seasonal temperature adjustment condition is a statistical change of the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined period of time. The preset cold water temperature in summer is equal to or less than a preset cold water temperature in winter, and because the summer temperature is high, the preset cold water temperature in summer will be greater than the preset cold water temperature in winter. Therefore, when the condition judging unit 21 judges that the change in the average cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined period of time is greater than or equal to a preset cold water temperature in summer (for example, 25 ° C.), it is determined that the seasonal temperature adjustment conditions are satisfied. A condition, and when the condition judging unit 21 determines that the change in the average cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is less than or equal to a preset cold water temperature in winter (for example, 13 ° C.), it is determined that the seasonal temperature adjustment is satisfied Condition is the other condition.
並且，當條件判斷單元21判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化大於等於夏季冷水溫預設值時，控制單元16據此調整加熱單元118的輸出功率，以自動調節熱水器100的出水溫為一夏季熱水溫(例如30℃)，並進行恆溫控 制，使熱水器100的出水溫的溫度值與夏季熱水溫的溫度值保持一致(如圖3所示)。而當條件判斷單元21判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化小於等於冬季冷水溫預設值時，控制單元16據此調整加熱單元118的輸出功率，以自動調節熱水器100的出水溫為一冬季熱水溫(例如45℃)，並進行恆溫控制，使熱水器100的出水溫的溫度值與冬季熱水溫的溫度值保持一致(如圖4所示)。並且，如圖3、4所示，由於夏季的冷水溫及體感溫度較高，使得本實施例的夏季熱水溫的溫度值會遠小於冬季熱水溫的溫度值，且會接近於夏季冷水溫的溫度值，可避免在夏季洗澡時造成渾身發燙、中暑昏倒的情形。 In addition, when the condition determining unit 21 determines that the change in the average cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined period of time is greater than or equal to a preset value of the summer cold water temperature, the control unit 16 adjusts the output power of the heating unit 118 accordingly to The water temperature of the water heater 100 is automatically adjusted to a summer hot water temperature (for example, 30 ° C), and the temperature is controlled by a constant temperature. Control so that the temperature value of the outlet temperature of the water heater 100 is consistent with the temperature value of the hot water temperature in summer (as shown in FIG. 3). When the condition judging unit 21 determines that the change in the average cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is less than or equal to a preset cold water temperature in winter, the control unit 16 adjusts the output power of the heating unit 118 accordingly to automatically Adjust the outlet water temperature of the water heater 100 to a winter hot water temperature (for example, 45 ° C.), and perform constant temperature control to make the temperature value of the outlet water temperature of the water heater 100 consistent with the winter hot water temperature (as shown in FIG. 4). Moreover, as shown in Figs. 3 and 4, the cold water temperature and the body sensation temperature in summer are relatively high, so that the temperature value of the hot water temperature in summer in this embodiment will be much lower than the temperature value of the hot water temperature in winter, and will be close to that in summer. The temperature of the cold water temperature can avoid the situation of getting hot and fainting from heat stroke when bathing in summer.
在一實施例中，統計單元19可用於統計出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫中位值(又稱中位數)的高低，以產生前述統計資訊。季節性調溫條件則為統計出的熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫中位值的變化大於等於一夏季冷水溫預設值或小於等於一冬季冷水溫預設值。藉由統計單元19還可用於統計出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫中位值，可避免受到極端值的影響。 In one embodiment, the statistics unit 19 may be configured to calculate the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined period of time, to generate the aforementioned statistical information. The seasonal temperature adjustment condition is that the change in the median value of the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is greater than or equal to a preset value of a summer cold water temperature or less than or equal to a preset value of a winter cold water temperature. The statistics unit 19 can also be used to calculate the median value of the cold water temperature of the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period, so as to avoid the influence of extreme values.

於步驟S111中，根據統計資訊，利用條件判斷單元21，判斷預定時間周期內熱水器的冷水溫的變化是否滿足季節性調溫條件。若判斷出有滿足季節性調溫條件時，進入步驟S113。若判斷出未滿足季節性調溫條件時，跳至步驟S115。 In step S111, based on the statistical information, the condition determination unit 21 is used to determine whether the change in the cold water temperature of the water heater within a predetermined time period satisfies the seasonal temperature adjustment condition. If it is determined that the seasonal temperature adjustment condition is satisfied, the process proceeds to step S113. If it is determined that the seasonal temperature adjustment condition is not satisfied, skip to step S115.
在本實施例中，季節性調溫條件可以為熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化大於等於一夏季冷水溫預設值或小於等於一冬季冷水溫預設值。 In this embodiment, the seasonal temperature adjustment condition may be that the change in the average cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined period of time is greater than or equal to a preset value of a summer cold water temperature or less than or equal to a preset value of a winter cold water temperature.
因此，若判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化大於等於夏季冷水溫預設值，即滿足季節性調溫條件其中一條件，而於步驟S113中，自動調節熱水器100的出水溫為一夏季熱水溫。 Therefore, if it is determined that the change in the average value of the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is greater than or equal to a preset value of the summer cold water temperature, one of the conditions of seasonal temperature adjustment conditions is satisfied, and in step S113, it is automatically adjusted The water temperature of the water heater 100 is a hot water temperature in summer.
另外，若判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫平均值的變化小於等於冬季冷水溫預設值時，亦滿足季節性 調溫條件其中另一條件，而於步驟S113中，自動調節熱水器100的出水溫為一冬季熱水溫。 In addition, if it is determined that the change in the average cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is less than or equal to a preset cold water temperature in winter, the seasonality is also satisfied. The temperature adjustment condition is another condition, and in step S113, the outlet water temperature of the water heater 100 is automatically adjusted to a winter hot water temperature.
在其他實施例中，季節性調溫條件可以為熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的中位值的變化大於等於一夏季冷水溫預設值或小於等於一冬季冷水溫預設值。 In other embodiments, the seasonal temperature adjustment condition may be that the change in the median value of the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is greater than or equal to a summer cold water temperature preset value or less than or equal to a winter cold water temperature preset value.
因此，若判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫中位值的變化大於等於夏季冷水溫預設值，即滿足季節性調溫條件其中一條件，而於步驟S113中，自動調節熱水器100的出水溫為一夏季熱水溫。 Therefore, if it is determined that the change in the median value of the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is greater than or equal to a preset value of the summer cold water temperature, one of the conditions for seasonal temperature adjustment is satisfied, and in step S113, the The outlet temperature of the water heater 100 is adjusted to a hot water temperature in summer.
另外，若判斷出熱水器100的冷水溫在預定時間周期內的冷水溫中位值的變化小於等於冬季冷水溫預設值時，亦滿足季節性調溫條件其中另一條件，而於步驟S113中，自動調節熱水器100的出水溫為一冬季熱水溫。 In addition, if it is determined that the change in the median value of the cold water temperature of the water heater 100 within a predetermined time period is less than or equal to a preset value of the cold water temperature in winter, another condition of seasonal temperature adjustment conditions is also satisfied, and in step S113 The water temperature of the water heater 100 is automatically adjusted to a winter hot water temperature.
在其他實施例中，季節性調溫條件其中又一條件還可以為熱水器100的設定溫度值大於最高設定溫度保護值(例如50℃)。因此，若判斷出熱水器100的設定溫度值大於最高設定溫度保護值時，而於步驟S113中，自動調節熱水器100的出水溫為夏季或冬季的熱水溫，藉此避免燙傷。 In other embodiments, another condition of the seasonal temperature adjustment condition may be that the set temperature value of the water heater 100 is greater than the highest set temperature protection value (for example, 50 ° C.). Therefore, if it is determined that the set temperature value of the water heater 100 is greater than the highest set temperature protection value, in step S113, the outlet temperature of the water heater 100 is automatically adjusted to the hot water temperature in summer or winter, thereby avoiding burns.
於步驟S115中，對熱水器100的出水溫進行恆溫控制。詳細來說，若於步驟113中，熱水器100的出水溫已自動調節為夏季熱水溫，則於步驟S115中，使熱水器100的出水溫的溫度值與夏季熱水溫的溫度值保持相一致。反之，若於步驟113中，熱水器100的出水溫已自動調節為冬季熱水溫，則於步驟S115中，使熱水器100的出水溫的溫度值與冬季熱水溫的溫度值保持相一致。 In step S115, the temperature of the outlet water of the water heater 100 is controlled by a constant temperature. In detail, if the outlet water temperature of the water heater 100 has been automatically adjusted to the summer hot water temperature in step 113, in step S115, the temperature value of the outlet water temperature of the water heater 100 and the summer hot water temperature are kept consistent. . Conversely, if the outlet water temperature of the water heater 100 has been automatically adjusted to the winter hot water temperature in step 113, in step S115, the temperature value of the outlet water temperature of the water heater 100 and the winter hot water temperature are kept consistent.
於步驟S117中，利用進水量偵測單元，偵測進入熱水器100的水量，以判斷是否關閉水源。在實務上，當使用者關閉水龍頭 或蓮蓬頭時，熱水器100即停止運作。因此，若步驟S117的判斷結果為是時，即表示熱水器100停止運作，熱水器100進入待機狀態。 In step S117, the amount of water entering the water heater 100 is detected by using the water inflow detection unit to determine whether the water source is turned off. In practice, when the user turns off the tap When the shower head is turned on, the water heater 100 stops operating. Therefore, if the determination result of step S117 is YES, it means that the water heater 100 is stopped and the water heater 100 enters a standby state.
綜合以上所述，本發明提供的熱水器及季節性自動調溫方法，可透過偵測冷水溫並統計一段時間中冷水溫變化的趨勢來判斷出目前的季節是夏季或冬季，並依據目前的季節是夏季或冬季來自動調節出水溫。藉此，當夏季來臨時，可自動調節出水溫為夏季熱水溫，可避免在夏季洗澡時覺得熱水溫太熱而造成渾身發燙、中暑昏倒的情形，而當冬季來臨時，可自動調節出水溫為冬季熱水溫，可避免在冬季洗澡時覺得熱水溫不夠而造成渾身發抖的情形。消費者再也不用因季節的變換而覺得出水溫太熱或太冷而需要再去手動設定出水溫到適合溫度的動作，從而解決一個長期困擾消費者的問題。 To sum up, the water heater and the seasonal automatic temperature adjustment method provided by the present invention can determine whether the current season is summer or winter by detecting the cold water temperature and counting the trend of the cold water temperature change over a period of time, and based on the current season It is automatically adjusted in summer or winter. With this, when summer comes, the water temperature can be automatically adjusted to the hot water temperature in summer, which can avoid feeling hot when the bath is too hot in the summer, causing the body to become hot and faint from heat stroke.
