Problems solved by technology

[0006] Although the above-mentioned prior art proposes a technical solution for closing the upper cover of the washing machine, there is still a problem that the control panel of the washing machine takes up a large space, resulting in the ability of the washing machine to accommodate clothes. drop, and the position of the button is not convenient for the user to operate
[0007] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the deficiencies and defects of the prior art, and provide a washing machine and its control method, by setting two functional units, and one of them is set The convenient opening and closing of the top cover of the washing machine is realized after the top cover of the washing machine is opened, avoiding the space limitation caused by the control panel of the conventional washing machine being arranged on the top cover, and the difficulty of finding the off switch after the top cover is opened question

Embodiment 1

[0075] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, a washing machine described in this embodiment includes a tray base 1 and an upper cover 2 matched with the tray base 1; it also includes a first functional unit 3 and a second functional unit 4; the first functional unit 3. It is used to switch the upper cover 2 from the closed state to the open state; the second functional unit 4 is used to switch the upper cover 2 from the open state to the closed state; the first functional unit 3 and at least one of the second functional unit 4 is provided on the upper cover 2; specifically, when the upper cover 2 needs to be opened, after the first functional unit 3 is triggered, the upper cover 2 automatically realizes the transition from the closed state to the open state. State switching, when the upper cover 2 needs to be closed, after the second functional unit 4 is triggered, the upper cover 2 automatically switches from the open state to the closed state, from figure 1 It can be seen...

Embodiment 2

[0077] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment is a further limitation of the first embodiment above. In the washing machine described in this embodiment, the first functional unit 3 and the second functional unit 4 are arranged on the upper cover 2 when the upper cover 2 is closed. The easy-to-handle area in this embodiment, the easy-to-touch position described in this embodiment can be understood as the position that the user can touch when standing on the front of the washing machine, or within the acceptable range of body extension. It should be noted that in the process of facilitating the touch, when the user executes the command, it should be visible to the naked eye or at least be able to accurately judge that the command to be executed can be accurately realized. This sentence can be understood as, for example, the above The cover 2 is provided with function keys. When the function keys have the functions of opening and closing, such as the upper cover...

Embodiment 3

[0079] Such as Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment is a further limitation of the second embodiment above. In the washing machine described in this embodiment, the first functional unit 3 is arranged on the top surface of the upper cover 2; the second functional unit 4 is arranged on the bottom surface of the upper cover 2, specifically, when the upper cover 2 is closed, the top surface of the upper cover 2 is a convenient position for the user to touch, and when the upper cover 2 is opened, The bottom surface of the upper cover 2 faces the user directly. At this time, the bottom surface is a position that is convenient for touching. The top surface described in this application should be understood as the washing machine is placed upright. When the upper cover 2 is closed, the vertically upward side is the top surface, and the vertically The side facing downward is the bottom surface.

Abstract

The invention discloses a washing machine and a control method thereof. The washing machine comprises a tray seat and an upper cover matched with the tray seat and further comprises a first functionalunit and a second functional unit, the first functional unit is used for realizing the switching of the upper cover from a closed state to an open state, and the second functional unit is used for realizing the switching of the upper cover from the open state to the closed state. At least the first functional unit is arranged at the position where the upper cover can conveniently touch, the uppercover can realize the opening and closing of the tray seat around a hinge, and the first functional unit is arranged at the side, away from the hinge, of the top surface of the upper cover. Accordingto the washing machine, at least one of the two functional units which control the opening or closing of the upper cover separately is arranged at a convenient control position of the upper cover ofthe washing machine, and the control comfort of opening and closing the upper cover of the washing machine is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular relates to a washing machine and a control method thereof.
