Touch device for refrigerator and refrigerator with same

Abstract

The invention provides a touch device for a refrigerator. The touch device comprises a base plate, a touch sensing module, a display module arranged on the base plate, an infrared sensing device arranged on the refrigerator, and a controller, wherein the touch sensing module comprises a plurality of touch sensing subzones which are arranged on the base plate and distributed at intervals along the longitudinal direction; the display module comprises a plurality of display subzones respectively corresponding to the touch sensing subzones; each display subzone is provided with a plurality of display units; the controller is respectively connected with the touch sensing module, the display module and the infrared sensing device; when the infrared sensing device senses that a user is close to the refrigerator, the infrared sensing device triggers at least a part of the display subzones of each display subzone to be started; and when the user touches the touch sensing module, the infrared sensing device triggers all the display units in the corresponding display subzone to be started. The touch device provided by the invention has the advantages that the device is started through induction andis simple to operate, and the user experience is enhanced. The invention also provides a refrigerator with the touch device.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of refrigeration equipment, in particular to a touch control device for a refrigerator and a refrigerator with the touch control device. Background technique [0002] As a kind of refrigeration equipment that maintains a constant low temperature, refrigerators are constantly developing towards multi-function and intelligence with the advancement of science and technology. Existing refrigerators can not only complete the refrigeration and fresh-keeping function, but also support user settings. The user can complete the personalized setting of the refrigerator by selecting the temperature, mode, etc. of the refrigerator. For example, many refrigerators currently have touch screens. However, the current common display and control, that is, the touch screen mostly has a static display effect and the display and control method is relatively simple. In addition, the correspondence between the various functions o...

And when there is no operation, the display control, that is, the operation area of ​​the touch screen can also be seen, which contrasts with the overall appearance of the refrigerator and affects the appearance of the refrigerator

Furthermore, the icons representing different function buttons on the touch screen are poor in schematic, difficult for users to understand, and bring certain difficulties to users when performing interface operations, and the temperature zone control is also very simple. For example, when the user needs to set the current time When the room cooling temperature is adjusted to a temperature with a large temperature difference compared with the current cooling temperature, the user needs to press the cooling adjustment contact many times continuously to make the temperature reach the user's desired value. Not only is the operation mode single, but the operation process is exactly the same, which is cumbersome. also lead to reduced operating efficiency
