Problems solved by technology

This requires the user to operate near the refrigerator, and frequent opening and closing of the refrigerator door will adversely affect the storage of food, which brings great inconvenience to the user.
[0004] Based on the above problems, in the prior art, there are also various technical means using weight sensors to measure the weight of objects in the refrigerator, detecting the storage status of specific storage locations, and arranging cameras to obtain the usage of the refrigerator space. However, some of these solutions detect The results are inaccurate, and some can only detect special foods, which cannot accurately reflect the actual use of the refrigerator volume

Embodiment Construction

[0023] figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention. The refrigerator may generally include: a box body and a detection assembly 100 .

[0024] In the refrigerator in this embodiment, the box body defines a storage compartment 400, and the box body includes a horizontally arranged top wall, a bottom wall, and vertically arranged side walls. Generally speaking, the vertically arranged side walls include three vertical side walls, which are respectively used as the left side wall, the right side wall and the rear wall. The walls are all arranged vertically, and the door body is arranged opposite to the rear wall.

[0025] The detection assembly 100 can be selectively arranged on one side of the top wall of the storage compartment or the side wall of the storage compartment.

[0026] For example the detection assembly 100 may be arranged on the rear wall. If the storage compartment 400 of the refrigerator is ...

Abstract

A refrigerator comprises a refrigerator body, a detection assembly (100), and a capacity calculation device (200). The refrigerator body defines a storage compartment (400), and the capacity of the storage compartment (400) is less than or equal to a preset threshold. The detection assembly (100) is disposed in the storage compartment (400), and at least comprises a light-sensitive component (130) that is configured to detect the visible light intensity and the infrared light intensity in the position where the detection assembly (100) is located. The capacity calculation device (200) is connected to the detection assembly (100), and is configured to acquire the visible light intensity and the infrared light intensity and calculate the used capacity of the storage compartment (400) according to the visible light intensity and the infrared light intensity. In the refrigerator, the detection assembly (100) is disposed in the storage compartment (400) the available capacity of which is less than or equal to the preset threshold; the used capacity of the storage compartment (400) of the refrigerator is detected by means of an optical principle, the detection result is precise, and a door body of the refrigerator does not need to be opened, thereby improving the use experience of a user, and keeping a good food storage environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of refrigerator control, in particular to a refrigerator. Background technique [0002] The intelligence of refrigerators is a direction of refrigerator development, and it is also the focus of research and development of many refrigerator manufacturers. With the improvement of living standards, people's requirements for refrigerators are not only limited to the basic food storage and preservation functions, but also have higher and higher requirements for intelligent operations that can facilitate people's lives and improve the quality of life. [0003] As a household appliance for storing food, users need to know the usage of the internal space of the refrigerator to determine the storage capacity of the food. In the prior art, people usually estimate the usable volume of the refrigerator by opening the refrigerator door to observe. This requires the user to operate near the refrigerator, and frequent opening and c...
