Problems solved by technology

[0002] In order to control the work of the water heater, the existing water heater usually sets a manual button on the control panel, and the water heater is usually installed in the bathroom, the surrounding environment is relatively humid, and there is usually water vapor on the panel. When the user manually touches the button, it is very difficult. It may cause electric shock due to moisture on the control panel; or after a long time of use, the aging control panel may also cause electric leakage; in summary, the work of manually directly touching the button to control the water heater poses a certain threat to the personal safety of the user

Embodiment approach 1

[0020] This embodiment provides a somatosensory control device for a water heater, which consists of figure 1 It can be seen that the control device is composed of a human body motion sensor 1, a human body motion sensor processor 2 and a water heater controller 3 connected in sequence, wherein the human body motion sensor processor 2 pre-stores a preset distance directly in front of the human body motion sensor 1. Multiple speckle images of each control gesture at each set distance within the range; 1~5 speckle images of each control gesture are stored at a distance of 1cm, so within the range of 50~80cm, 31~153 speckle images of each control gesture can be stored. After storing the speckle image of the control gesture, the human body motion sensor 1 captures the speckle image of the user gesture that appears within the range of 50-80cm, and sends the captured speckle image of the user gesture to the human body motion sensor processor 2. Then the human body motion sensing pr...

Embodiment approach 2

[0024] This embodiment is a further improvement of Embodiment 1. The main improvement is that in this embodiment, the human body motion sensing processor 2 converts the speckle image of the user's gesture into a work instruction through a coding protocol and sends it to the water heater using a communication protocol. For the controller 3, there are no boot codes and end codes in the encoding of the encoding protocol. Generally, the initial state of the human body motion sensing processor 2 is set to a high level, and when it receives a low level, it begins to capture the user For the speckle image of the gesture, when it does not receive a low level for more than 0.5 milliseconds, the capture of the speckle image of the user gesture ends. Generally, a logic "0" is represented by a low level of 0.15 milliseconds, and a logic "1" is represented by a low level of 0.3 milliseconds. In this embodiment, the length of the code is 2 bits. For example, logic 00 is used to represent th...

Embodiment approach 3

[0030]This embodiment is roughly the same as Embodiment 2, the main difference is: in this embodiment, each control command in the encoding protocol sends 1 bit, which is interpreted as an integer, and the number 1 is used to represent the switch of the water heater, and the corresponding binary code is 00000001; The number 2 means the water temperature of the water heater is increased, and the corresponding binary code is 00000010; the number 3 is used to indicate the water temperature of the water heater is lowered, and the corresponding binary code is 00000011; the number 4 is used to indicate the mode switching of the water heater, and the corresponding binary code is 00000100. In addition, in this embodiment, the human body motion sensing processor 2 and the water heater controller 3 use three of the TTL (Transistor-Transistor Logic: transistor-transistor logic circuit) serial ports, which are respectively: the RX receiving data pin and the TX sending data pin. pin and GND...

Abstract

The invention relates to the field of water heaters and discloses a somatosensory control device of a water heater. The somatosensory control device consists of a human body action sensor, a human body action sensing processor and a water heater controller which are connected in sequence, wherein a plurality of speckle images of each control gesture at each set distance position within a preset distance range in front of the human body action sensor are pre-stored in the human body action sensing processor. The human body action sensor catches the speckle images of gestures of a user and sends the speckle images to the human body action sensing processor. When the speckle images of the gestures of the user correspond to speckle images of a certain preset control gesture, the human body action sensing processor processes the speckle images of the gestures of the user into corresponding water heater working instructions. The water heater controller controls an operating state of the water heater according to the working instructions. Compared with the prior art, the operating state of the water heater can be accurately controlled, the body of the user is not directly in contact with a control panel of the water heater, and electric shock danger caused by direct contact is avoided.
