Embodiment 1

[0036] like Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the water heater includes a display, a main control panel, and a temperature sensor. The display includes buttons for enabling / disabling the automatic shutdown mode, sending signals such as modifying parameters to the control unit, a display screen for displaying the working status of the water heater, a display signal interface and a Micro Control Unit (MCU). The display signal interface is used for receiving the temperature sensing signal from the main control board and sending the temperature sensing signal to the micro-processing unit, and for receiving the instruction of the micro-processing unit and sending the instruction to the main control board. The micro-processing unit MCU is used to receive the temperature sensing signal, compare the temperature sensing signal with the preset parameters, and send instructions to the display screen and / or the display signal interface according to the comparison result; it is used to recei...

Embodiment 2

[0044] This preferred embodiment provides a water heater, the basic structure of which is the same as that of the first preferred embodiment.

[0045] The water heater is not limited to having buttons, a display screen, a display signal interface, a control unit, a power supply, a temperature sensor interface and a main control signal interface, and the control unit is not limited to a microprocessor unit.

[0046] The water heater includes a temperature sensor, a main control panel and a display. Among them, the temperature sensor is used to measure the temperature of the water in the water heater, and send the temperature sensing signal to the main control board; the main control board is used to connect the temperature sensor and send the temperature sensing signal to the display, and to supply power to the display The display is used to control the state of the water heater according to the temperature sensing signal and display the corresponding state information, to comm...

Embodiment 3

[0055] This preferred embodiment provides a water heater, the structure of which is the same as that of preferred embodiment 1 or 2.

[0056] The control method of the water heater in this preferred embodiment is that the water heater is automatically turned off after the water is heated to the set temperature and the set heating times are reached in the automatic shutdown mode.

Abstract

The invention discloses a water heater control method with an automatic shutdown function and a water heater and aims to overcome the defect that energy is wasted if an existing water heater is forgot to be shut down. The method includes: under a automatic shutdown mode, the water heater is automatically shut down when water is heated to set temperature and set heating times are reached. The water heater comprises a display, a master control panel and a temperature sensor. The display comprises a button, a display screen, a display signal interface and a control unit. The master control panel comprises a power supply, a temperature sensor interface and a master control signal interface. By the control method, energy waste caused by the fact the water heater is forgot to be shut down is avoided, one-button shutdown is basically achieved, and good user experience is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a water heater control method with automatic shutdown function and a water heater using the control method. Background technique [0002] To avoid wasting energy, in most cases water heaters are turned on, heated before they need to be used, and turned off after use or when heating is complete. But it often happens that you forget to turn off the water heater after use. When the temperature drops from the set bath temperature to a certain value, the water heater will automatically start the heating pipe for heating, and the water heater will continue to circulate and heat. So if you forget to turn off the water heater, it will lead to a waste of energy. [0003] In addition, after the water heater is heated or used, the user needs to manually shut down or unplug the power plug to stop the heating of the water heater. This cumbersome operation makes the user experience bad. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0004] An object of th...
