Embodiment 1

[0030] like figure 1 and image 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a control method for a water heater, wherein the water heater includes a water storage area and a heating area 1 , and the water storage area communicates with the heating area 1 . The control method of the water heater specifically includes:

[0031] S1. Obtain the water outlet time required for the water storage area to flow out a preset amount of hot water;

[0032] The water storage area stores hot water reaching a preset water temperature, and the preset water temperature is the temperature of the hot water expected by the user. When the user is using the hot water, the hot water flows out of the water storage area. At this time, the length of the user's water discharge from the start of the use of the hot water to the end of the use is detected, and the total amount of hot water used by the user in this process is a preset amount.

[0033] S2. Obtain the heating time required b...

Embodiment 2

[0062] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a control device for a water heater, the water heater includes a water storage area and a heating area 1, and the water storage area communicates with the heating area 1; the control device for the water heater includes:

[0063] The first obtaining module is used to obtain the water outlet time required for the preset amount of hot water to flow out of the water storage area; for details, please refer to the step S1 part of the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here;

[0064] The second obtaining module is used to obtain the heating time required by the heating zone to heat the preset amount of cold water to the temperature of the hot water; for details, please refer to the step S2 part of the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here. ;

[0065] The adjustment module is used to adjust the heating power of the heating zone 1 according to the water outlet duration and the heating duration; wherei...

Embodiment 3

[0068]An embodiment of the present invention also provides a water heater, the water heater including the electronic device may include a processor and a memory, wherein the processor and the memory may be connected by a bus or in other ways, taking the connection by a bus as an example.

[0069] The processor may be a central processing unit (Central Processing Unit, CPU). The processor may also be other general-purpose processors, digital signal processors (Digital Signal Processor, DSP), application specific integrated circuit (Application Specific Integrated Circuit, ASIC), Field-Programmable Gate Array (Field-Programmable Gate Array, FPGA) or other Chips such as programmable logic devices, discrete gate or transistor logic devices, discrete hardware components, or a combination of the above types of chips.

[0070] As a non-transitory computer-readable storage medium, the memory can be used to store non-transitory software programs, non-transitory computer-executable prog...

Abstract

The invention discloses a control method and a control device of a water heater and the water heater. The water heater comprises a water storage area and a heating area, wherein the water storage area communicates with the heating area; the control method of the water heater comprises the steps of obtaining the water outlet duration needed by the water storage area to flow out a preset amount of hot water; obtaining the heating duration needed by the heating area for heating the preset amount of cold water to the temperature of the hot water; and adjusting the heating power of the heating area according to the water outlet duration and the heating duration. In this way, the heating power of the heating area can be adjusted in real time according to different water using conditions of users, and it can be guaranteed that hot water is stably provided for the users. Meanwhile, the heating area can be prevented from being heated at the fixed heating power all the time, and the service life of a heating assembly in the water heater is prolonged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to a water heater control method, a control device and a water heater. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, many smart appliances have entered people's lives, and water heaters are one of the daily use of people. Since the existing water heater has only one inner tank, when the user uses hot water through the water heater, as the hot water in the inner tank of the water heater decreases, the cold water will be continuously injected into the inner tank of the water heater, so that the overall temperature of the water in the inner tank of the water heater is increased. becomes lower, so that the water heater cannot stably provide users with hot water, and the user experience is poor. [0003] In the prior art, some electric water heaters include at least two sub-container units, and a plurality of sub-container units are arrang...
