Method for controlling pouring of laundry detergent and washing machine

Abstract

A washing machine calculates corresponding first pouring amount of the laundry detergent based on acquired information and displays the first pouring amount of the laundry detergent. The washing machine detects and judges a variable of the first pouring amount of the laundry detergent to form a second pouring amount of the laundry detergent, the washing procedure is started, and the washing machine pours the laundry detergent at a first pouring amount or a second pouring amount of the laundry detergent. The invention further provides a washing machine which includes an automatic pouring device, a computer board and a display screen, wherein the automatic pouring device pours based on the pouring amount of the laundry detergent calculated by the computer board, and the display screen is used for displaying the first pouring amount of the laundry detergent and / or the second pouring amount of the laundry detergent in real time.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to the technical field of washing machines, and specifically relates to a method for controlling pouring of laundry detergent and a washing machine.BACKGROUND[0002]As users' requirement for standards and quality of life gradually improves, multiple models of washing machines available on the market now are provided with an automatic pouring function. However, for the pouring amount of laundry detergent used in each laundry, the pouring amount is often determined by a computer board based on water level or clothes smudginess degree selected by users. Users cannot visually watch the specific pouring amount during each laundry, nor can they set by themselves. Therefore, users often complain that the pouring amount of the laundry detergent defaulted by a washing machine does not satisfy their requirements.[0003]A Chinese invention patent with the application number of 201010221057.6 and the title of Pouring Method of Laundry Detergent i...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a method and washing machine for controlling the amount of laundry detergent poured during a washing cycle. Users can select the default amount or change it based on their needs, and the machine will update the amount displayed for easy judgment. This method allows for precise and individualized laundry detergent usage, improving washing efficiency and solving users' problems of not being able to control the detergent amount.

Problems solved by technology

Users cannot visually watch the specific pouring amount during each laundry, nor can they set by themselves.

Therefore, users often complain that the pouring amount of the laundry detergent defaulted by a washing machine does not satisfy their requirements.

Firstly, in the above patent application, the pouring amount of laundry detergent cannot be displayed, users still cannot visually watch the pouring amount of the laundry detergent and cannot directly judge whether the pouring amount satisfies their requirements. Therefore, users can find out whether the pouring amount of the laundry detergent satisfies their requirements only after the washing machine starts to wash.

Secondly, users can judge whether laundry detergent needs to be added only after the washing machine begins to wash, and the washing procedure needs to be paused, thereby interrupting the washing procedure and influencing the washing efficiency.

Finally, laundry detergent needs to be added by hands by users, thereby being not beneficial for the use experience of users.
