技术领域
本申请涉及电器智能控制技术领域,尤其涉及加热控制方法、装置及制冰机。
背景技术
制冰机(英文名:ice maker或ice machine)是一种将水通过蒸发器由制冰系统制冰剂冷却后生成冰的制冰机械设备,采用制冰系统,以水为载体,在通电状态下通过某一设备后制造出冰。根据蒸发器的原理和生产方式的不同,生成的冰块形状也不同;一般以冰形状将制冰机分为颗粒冰机、片冰机、板冰机、管冰机、壳冰机等等。
在一次制冰工作状态结束后,制冰机的进水管中残留的水,容易因制冰结束后的冷温或低室温影响,凝结成冰。使得制冰机在开始下一次制冰工作状态时,无法通过进水管获得足量的水,以供制冰使用,影响制冰机的正常制冰。现有技术中,只要制冰机处于开机状态下,进水管加热器就一直处于加热工作状态,或按照固定时间的开停比进行加热,以防止制冰机的进水管中残留的水凝结成冰,进而影响制冰机的正常制冰。
因此,现有技术中制冰机的进水管加热控制技术存在能耗高的问题。

附图说明
为了更清楚地说明本申请实施例或现有技术中的术方案,下面将对实施例或现有技术描述中所需要使用的附图作一简单地介绍,显而易见地,下面描述中的附图是本申请的一些实施例,对于本领域普通技术人员来讲,在不付出创造性劳动的前提下,还可以根据这些附图获得其他的附图。
图1是本申请实施例提供的加热控制方法的整体流程示意图;
图2是本申请实施例提供的加热控制装置的整体结构示意图;
图3是本申请实施例提供的另一加热控制方法的整体流程示意图;
图4是本申请实施例提供的电子设备实体结构示意图。
具体实施方式
为使本申请实施例的目的、技术方案和优点更加清楚,下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图,对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行清楚、完整地描述,显然,所描述的实施例是本申请一部分实施例,而不是全部的实施例。基于本申请中的实施例,本领域普通技术人员在没有作出创造性劳动前提下所获得的所有其他实施例,都属于本申请保护的范围。
如图1,示出本申请实施例,一种加热控制方法的整体流程示意图,包括:
S1,确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水为目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;
S2,对进水管持续加热第一预设时长;控制进水阀保持关闭,直至对进水管的加热结束;其中,需保证对进水管持续加热第一预设时长后,进水管内不存在冰或即使存在冰,也能够保证水顺利进入制冰机的蓄水槽中。
其中,为了节省能耗,与现有技术中制冰机进水管加热控制技术不同,本申请实施例中,并非当制冰机处于开机状态下,进水管加热器就一直处于加热工作状态,或按照固定时间的开停比进行加热。通常来说,制冰机在两种情况下会导致刚开机时,首次制冰工作状态进入前进水管内的水冰冻,造成进水管堵塞,水无法进入制冰机,影响制冰机进行正常制冰。一种情况为因上一次或上几次制冰工作状态结束后,冷温的影响,会导致进水管内的水冰冻;另一种情况为因外部室温过低,会导致进水管内的水冰冻。通常,在制冰机开机后,并不是即刻进入制冰工作状态,如果在制冰机开机之后,立马对进水管进行加热除冰,会造成电能的损耗,同时进水管内的水在下次进入制冰工作状态之前,有可能会再次冰冻,更加加剧了电能的损耗。
因此,进一步,本申请实施例在制冰机开机后,并不在第一时间对进水管进行加热,而是当接收到进入制冰工作状态的指令后,首先确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水为目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;控 制加热器对进水管进行持续第一预设时长的加热。其中,所述加热器为现有技术中任何种类的,为进水管进行加热的装置,现有技术中的进水管加热器通常为环绕在进水管周围的加热电阻丝。本申请实施例能够通过至少以下两种方式确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态:确认制冰机的压缩机正在工作,或通过制冰机的控制芯片确认制冰机正在执行制冰程序。其中,所述第一预设时长为预先设定,根据进水管内管径的大小和加热器的加热功率预先计算或测量;需保证对进水管持续加热第一预设时长后,进水管内不存在冰或即使存在冰,也能够保证水顺利进入制冰机的蓄水槽中。
又进一步,在对进水管持续加热,且持续加热时长没有达到第一预设时长的同时,需要控制进水阀保持关闭,以保证进水管内的水能够加速对进水管内冰的融化,以起到节省能耗的有益效果。
本申请具体实施例提供一种加热控制方法,所述加热控制方法,确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水为目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;对进水管持续加热第一预设时长;控制进水阀保持关闭,直至对进水管的加热结束。以解决现有技术中制冰机的进水管加热控制技术存在能耗高的问题,起到对制冰机的进水管进行精准且低能耗加热控制的有益效果。
在本申请上述具体实施例的基础上,提供一种加热控制方法,还包括:
S1’,确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水不是目标制冰机开机后的首次进水,且当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻的时长达到第二预设时长;
S2’,对进水管持续加热第一预设时长;控制进水阀保持关闭,直至对进水管的加热结束。
需要说明的是,与上一实施例相类似,本申请实施例在结束上一次制冰工作状态之后,同样并不在第一时间对进水管进行加热,而是当接收到进入制冰工作状态的指令后,首先确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水不是目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;再确认,当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻的时长达到第二预设时长。在上次制冰工作状态结束后,需要间隔一定时长进水管部位才有可能产生冰,所以需要再确认,当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻的时长达到第二预设时长后,控制加热器对进水管持续加热第一预设时长。
进一步,第二预设时长为根据实验计算获得,或根据目标制冰机的机械构造及制冰功率计算获得,也就是要保证目标制冰机在结束一次制冰工作状态之后,进水管在间隔第二预设时长后可能出现结冰。
同样,在对进水管持续加热,且持续加热时长没有达到第一预设时长的同时,需要控制进水阀保持关闭,以保证进水管内的水能够加速对进水管内冰的融化,以起到节省能耗的有益效果。
本申请具体实施例提供一种加热控制方法,所述加热控制方法,确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水不是目标制冰机开机后的首次进水,且当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻的时长达到第二预设时长;对进水管持续加热第一预设时长;控制进水阀保持关闭,直至对进水管的加热结束。以解决现有技术中制冰机的进水管加热控制技术存在能耗高的问题,起到对制冰机的进水管进行精准且低能耗加热控制的有益效果。
在本申请任一上述具体实施例的基础上,提供一种加热控制方法,还包括:
确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水不是目标制冰机开机后的首次进水,且当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻的时长未达到第二预设时长;
控制进水阀保持打开,直至目标制冰机完成当前次进水。
需要说明的是,与上述实施例类似,本申请实施例在结束上一次制冰工作状态之后,并不在第一时间对进水管进行加热,而是当接收到进入制冰工作状态的指令后,首先确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水不是目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;再确认,当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻的时长达到第二预设时长。在上次制冰工作状态结束后,需要间隔一定时长进水管部位才有可能产生冰,所以需要再确认,当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻的时长达到第二预设时长后,控制加热器对进水管持续加热第一预设时长。
但是,如果当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长未达到第二预设时长,则意味着进水管内此刻内并不存在冰,也就是无需对进水管进行加热。
还进一步,此时,控制进水阀保持打开,直至目标制冰机完成当前次 进水,以起到节省能耗的有益效果。
本申请具体实施例提供一种加热控制方法,所述加热控制方法,确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水不是目标制冰机开机后的首次进水,且当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长未达到第二预设时长;控制进水阀保持打开,直至目标制冰机完成当前次进水。以解决现有技术中制冰机的进水管加热控制技术存在能耗高的问题,起到对制冰机的进水管进行精准且低能耗加热控制的有益效果。
在本申请任一上述具体实施例的基础上,提供一种加热控制方法,还包括:制冰工作状态结束后,不对进水管进行加热,直至当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长达到第二预设时长。
需要说明的是,与上一实施例相类似,本申请实施例在结束上一次制冰工作状态之后,并不在第一时间对进水管进行加热。在上次制冰工作状态结束后,需要间隔一定时长进水管部位才有可能产生冰,所以需要再确认,当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长达到第二预设时长后,控制加热器对进水管进行持续预设时长的加热。
进一步,第二预设时长为根据实验计算获得,或根据目标制冰机的机械构造及制冰功率计算获得,需要保证目标制冰机在结束一次制冰工作状态之后,进水管在间隔第二预设时长后可能出现结冰。
又进一步,在对进水管持续加热,且持续加热时长没有达到预设时长的同时,需要控制进水阀保持关闭,以保证进水管内的水能够加速对进水管内冰的融化,以起到节省能耗的有益效果。
本申请具体实施例提供一种加热控制方法,所述加热控制方法,在制冰工作状态结束后,不对进水管进行加热,直至当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长达到第二预设时长。以解决现有技术中制冰机的进水管加热控制技术存在能耗高的问题,起到对制冰机的进水管进行精准且低能耗加热控制的有益效果。
在本申请任一上述具体实施例的基础上,提供一种加热控制方法,还包括:制冰工作状态结束后,不对进水管进行加热,直至当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长达到第二预设时长,基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热。
需要说明的是,与上一实施例相类似,本申请实施例在结束上一次制冰工作状态之后,并不在第一时间对进水管进行加热。在上次制冰工作状态结束后,需要间隔一定时长进水管部位才有可能产生冰,所以需要再确认,当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长达到第二预设时长后,控制加热器基于预设时间开停比,对进水管进行持续预设时长的加热。
本申请具体实施例提供一种加热控制方法,所述加热控制方法,在制冰工作状态结束后,并不第一时间对进水管进行加热,直至当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长达到第二预设时长,基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热。以解决现有技术中制冰机的进水管加热控制技术存在能耗高的问题,起到对制冰机的进水管进行精准且低能耗加热控制的有益效果。
在本申请任一上述具体实施例的基础上,提供一种加热控制方法,还包括:
确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水不是目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;
基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热。
其中,一个制冰工作状态的循环过程中,一般会进行多次进水,且多次进水时间连续或间隔很短。因此,该实施例中,因为第一次进水前对进水管持续加热第一预设时长,且在制冰工作状态下,一直有常温的水流在进水管中流动,因此,并不需要一直对进水管进行加热,基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热,在保证进水管内不结冰的前提下,更能节省能耗。
在本申请任一上述具体实施例的基础上,提供一种加热控制方法,基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热,进一步包括:
基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热,直至达到第三预设时长,或开始进入新的制冰工作状态。
需要说明的是,通常来说,基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热开始时,进水管内刚刚产生了冰。因此保持一致对进水管进行加热,会导致能耗过高。因此,该实施例中,一种方案为:当基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热,达到第三预设时长时,就停止对进水管进行加热。
同时,基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热开始时,进水管内刚刚产生了冰,因此认为对进水管稍加加热即可除冰,而是当接收到制冰请求时,为了第一时间开始进入制冰工作状态,该实施例中,另一种方案为:当基于预设时间开停比对进水管进行加热,开始进入新的制冰工作状态,就停止对进水管进行加热。
如图2,在本申请任一上述具体实施例的基础上,提供一种加热控制装置,包括控制模块A01、加热器A02和进水阀A03:
控制模块A01,被配置为确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水为目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;控制加热器A02对进水管持续加热第一预设时长;控制进水阀A03保持关闭,直至对进水管的加热结束;其中,需保证对进水管持续加热第一预设时长后,进水管内不存在冰或即使存在冰,也能够保证水顺利进入制冰机的蓄水槽中。

因此,进一步,本申请实施例在制冰机开机后,控制模块A01并不在第一时间控制加热器A02对进水管进行加热,而是当接收到进入制冰工作状态的指令后,控制模块A01首先确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水为目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;控制模块A01控制加热器A02对进水管持续加热第一预设时长。其中,所述加热器A02为现有技术中任何种类的,能够为进水管进行加热的装置,现有技术中的进水管加热器A02通常为环绕在进水管周围的加热电阻丝。其中,所述第一预设时长为预先 设定,根据进水管内管径的大小和加热器A02的加热功率预先计算或测量;需保证对进水管持续加热第一预设时长后,进水管内不存在冰或即使存在冰,也能够保证水顺利进入制冰机的蓄水槽中。
又进一步,控制模块A01控制加热器A02在对进水管持续加热,且持续加热时长没有达到第一预设时长的同时,需要控制进水阀A03保持关闭,以保证进水管内的水能够加速对进水管内冰的融化,以起到节省能耗的有益效果。

进一步,第二预设时长为根据实验计算获得,或根据目标制冰机的机 械构造及制冰功率计算获得,需要保证目标制冰机在结束一次制冰工作状态之后,进水管在间隔第二预设时长后可能出现结冰。
但是,如果当前时刻距离上次制冰工作状态结束时刻,的间隔时长达到第二预设时长,则意味着进水管内此刻内并不存在冰,也就是控制模块A01无需控制加热器A02对进水管进行加热。
又进一步,此时,控制模块A01控制进水阀A03保持打开,直至目标制冰机完成当前次进水,以起到节省能耗的有益效果。

此外,上述的存储器403中的逻辑指令可以通过软件功能单元的形式实现并作为独立的产品销售或使用时,可以存储在一个计算机可读取存储介质中。基于这样的理解,本申请的技术方案本质上或者说对现有技术做出贡献的部分或者该技术方案的部分可以以软件产品的形式体现出来,该计算机软件产品存储在一个存储介质中,包括若干指令用以使得一台计算机设备(可以是个人计算机,服务器,或者网络设备等)执行本申请各个实施例所述方法的全部或部分步骤。而前述的存储介质包括:U盘、移动硬盘、只读存储器(ROM,Read-Only Memory)、随机存取存储器(RAM,Random Access Memory)、磁碟或者光盘等各种可以存储程序代码的介质。
本申请实施例还提供一种非暂态计算机可读存储介质,其上存储有计算机程序,该计算机程序被处理器执行时实现以执行上述各实施例提供的方法,例如包括:确认制冰机处于制冰工作状态,且当前次进水为目标制冰机开机后的首次进水;对进水管持续加热第一预设时长;控制进水阀保持关闭,直至对进水管的加热结束;其中,需保证对进水管持续加热第一预设时长后,进水管内不存在冰或即使存在冰,也能够保证水顺利进入制冰机的蓄水槽中。
以上所描述的装置实施例仅仅是示意性的,其中所述作为分离部件说明的单元可以是或者也可以不是物理上分开的,作为单元显示的部件可以是或者也可以不是物理单元,即可以位于一个地方,或者也可以分布到多个网络单元上。可以根据实际的需要选择其中的部分或者全部模块来实现本实施例方案的目的。本领域普通技术人员在不付出创造性的劳动的情况下,即可以理解并实施。
通过以上的实施方式的描述,本领域的技术人员可以清楚地了解到各实施方式可借助软件加必需的通用硬件平台的方式来实现,当然也可以通过硬件。基于这样的理解,上述技术方案本质上或者说对现有技术做出贡献的部分可以以软件产品的形式体现出来,该计算机软件产品可以存储在计算机可读存储介质中,如ROM/RAM、磁碟、光盘等,包括若干指令用以使得一台计算机设备(可以是个人计算机,服务器,或者网络设备等)执行各个实施例或者实施例的某些部分所述的方法。
最后应说明的是:以上实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案,而非对其限制;尽管参照前述实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方案的精神和范围。
