Refrigerator and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention provides a refrigerator and a control method thereof. The refrigerator comprises a refrigerator body, a door body connected to the pivoting side of the refrigerator body in a pivoted mode and a switch assembly. The switch assembly comprises a primary coil set located on the refrigerator body, a secondary coil set located on the door body, a prompt assembly and a processor, wherein the primary coil set comprises a first primary coil and a second primary coil, the first primary coil and the second primary coil are the same in structure, and the distances from the first primary coiland the second primary coil to the pivoting side are different; the secondary coil set comprises a first secondary coil and a second secondary coil, the structure of the first secondary coil is the same as that of the second secondary coil, and when the door body is in a closed state, the first secondary coil and the second secondary coil correspond to the first primary coil and the second primary coil respectively; and the processor is in communication connection with the primary coil set, the secondary coil set and the prompt assembly.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a refrigerator, in particular to a refrigerator which instantly reminds the switch state of a door body and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, there are mainly two kinds of door switches commonly used in refrigerators: mechanical type and magnetic control type. The structure of the mechanical switch is simple, but it needs to be attached to the opening and closing control of the door, which cannot be controlled by logic. Moreover, the mechanical switch is prone to problems such as terminal ignition, which poses a safety hazard during the use of the refrigerator. Although the magnetic control switch makes up for the problems such as the terminal ignition of the mechanical switch, it needs the auxiliary support of the magnetic field such as the magnet, and the magnetism of the magnet decays with the increase of the use time. [0003] Moreover, the mechanical and magnetic-controlled methods of pro...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The structure of the mechanical switch is simple, but it needs to be attached to the opening and closing control of the door body, which cannot be controlled by logic, and the mechanical switch is prone to problems such as terminal ignition, which makes the refrigerator a potential safety hazard during use

; Although the magnetic control switch makes up for the problems of the terminal ignition of the mechanical switch, it needs the auxiliary support of the magnetic field such as a magnet, and the magnetism of the magnet decays with the increase of use time

[0003] Moreover, the mechanical and magnetic-controlled methods of prompting the door switch of the refrigerator are as follows: 1 minute after the door is opened, the buzzer sounds, neither of which can realize the instant reminder of the state of the door open and close of the refrigerator, and it is easy to happen that the door of the refrigerator is not closed, and User is not aware of the situation
