Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular provides a program updating method for a clothing processing device. Background Art

[0002] With the advancement of science and technology, the level of automation in human life is getting higher and higher, and daily housework is gradually replaced by machines. As a commonly used household appliance in daily life, clothing processing equipment has brought great convenience to people's lives. Clothing processing equipment mainly includes washing equipment, drying equipment and washing and drying equipment. According to the washing method, washing equipment can be roughly divided into pulsator washing machines and drum washing machines.

[0003] Take washing machines as an example. In order to meet the diverse needs of different users, washing machines have set up more and more programs, such as washing programs, spin-drying programs, rinsing programs and test programs, among which the test programs include shopping mall demonstration programs, production inspection programs and computer board inspection programs, etc. The above test programs are almost never used in actual use, but a large number of test programs occupy the memory of the washing machine chip, which reduces the running speed of the chip. In addition, for washing machines with touch keys, users may touch more than two touch keys at the same time during the use of the washing machine, thereby triggering a test program, resulting in the user not selecting the target program, which greatly affects the user's experience.

[0004] Therefore, the art needs a new program updating method for a clothes treating device to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, that is, to solve the problem that the existing clothing processing equipment includes multiple test programs, which not only occupies the memory of the chip of the clothing processing equipment but also is easily triggered by mistake, the present invention provides a program update method for clothing processing equipment, wherein a program is stored on the clothing processing equipment, and the program includes multiple test programs; the program update method includes the following steps: determining whether the clothing processing equipment and the mobile terminal are bound; and based on the determination result of whether the clothing processing equipment and the mobile terminal are bound, selectively updating the program of the clothing processing equipment to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs.

[0006] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned program updating method, the step of "selectively updating the program of the clothing processing device to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs based on the judgment result of whether the clothing processing device and the mobile terminal are bound" specifically includes: if the clothing processing device and the mobile terminal are bound, updating the program of the clothing processing device to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs.

[0007] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned program updating method, the step of "selectively updating the program of the clothing processing device to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs based on the judgment result of whether the clothing processing device and the mobile terminal are bound" also includes: if the clothing processing device and the mobile terminal are not bound, the clothing processing device is not updated.

[0008] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned program updating method, the step of "causing the clothing processing device to perform a program update to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs" specifically includes: obtaining the current location of the clothing processing device; determining whether the current location is within the preset location range; if the current location is within the preset location range, causing the clothing processing device to perform a program update to remove part of the multiple test programs.

[0009] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned program updating method, the step of "causing the clothing processing equipment to update the program to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs" also includes: if the current location is not within the preset location range, then causing the clothing processing equipment to update the program to remove all the multiple test programs.

[0010] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned program updating method, the step of "obtaining the current location of the clothing processing device" specifically includes: obtaining the current geographical location information of the clothing processing device; and determining the current location according to the current geographical location information.

[0011] In the preferred technical solution of the above program updating method, the preset place is a display place.

[0012] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned program updating method, the program also includes at least one clothing processing program; the step of "causing the clothing processing device to update the program to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs" specifically includes: determining whether the clothing processing device has run a complete clothing processing program; if the clothing processing device has already run a complete clothing processing program, causing the clothing processing device to update the program to remove all the multiple test programs.

[0013] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned program updating method, the step of "causing the clothing processing device to update the program to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs" also includes: if the clothing processing device does not run a complete clothing processing program, then causing the clothing processing device to update the program to remove part of the multiple test programs.

[0014] In the preferred technical solution of the above program updating method, when it is determined that the clothing processing device and the mobile terminal are bound, the program updating method further includes: sending a prompt message to prompt the user to update the program of the clothing processing device.

[0015] Those skilled in the art can understand that in the preferred technical solution of the program update method of the present invention, it is determined whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound; based on the result of the determination of whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, the washing machine is selectively program updated to remove at least a portion of the multiple test programs. Compared with the technical solution in the prior art that the washing machine includes multiple test programs under any circumstances, in the process of determining whether to perform a program update to remove at least a portion of the multiple test programs, if the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, it means that the washing machine has been shipped out of the factory and entered a display location or a use location, and it can be considered that the washing machine has passed the inspection and does not need to be inspected again, then the washing machine is program updated to remove at least a portion of the multiple test programs, such as removing at least a portion of the test programs such as the shopping mall demonstration program, the production inspection program, and the computer board inspection program of the washing machine; if the washing machine and the mobile terminal are not bound, it means that the washing machine has not been shipped out of the factory. , or has not yet entered the display place or the use place, and it is impossible to determine whether the washing machine has passed the inspection and whether it needs to be inspected again, the washing machine will not be updated with the program to retain all the test programs of the washing machine. After it is detected that the washing machine is bound to the mobile terminal, the program will be updated again, thereby achieving the purpose of selectively updating the washing machine to remove at least part of the multiple test programs based on the judgment result of whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, avoiding a large number of test programs from occupying the memory of the chip of the washing machine, improving the running speed of the chip, and reducing the probability of the test program being triggered by mistake, so that the user can effectively select the target program, thereby improving the user experience.

[0016] Furthermore, it is determined based on the current location to remove part or all of the test programs. For example, if the washing machine is in a display location (shopping mall, supermarket, exhibition hall, etc.), it can be considered that the washing machine has passed the inspection and does not need to be inspected again. However, it is necessary to demonstrate the various functions of the washing machine to customers. In this case, the washing machine is program updated to remove test programs such as the production inspection program and the computer board inspection program of the washing machine, while retaining the shopping mall demonstration program. This reduces the storage capacity of the chip, increases the running speed of the chip, and reduces the probability of the test program being triggered by mistake, so that the user can effectively select the target program. If the washing machine is not in a display location but in a use location (home, single apartment, hospital, hotel, school, training center, etc.), it can be considered that the washing machine has been put into actual use and does not need to be inspected again. Moreover, it is not necessary to demonstrate the various functions of the washing machine to customers. In this case, the washing machine is program updated to remove all test programs such as the shopping mall demonstration program, production inspection program, and computer board inspection program of the washing machine. This minimizes the storage capacity of the chip, increases the running speed of the chip, and completely avoids the test program from being triggered by mistake, so that the user can effectively select the target program, further improving the user experience.

[0017] The program updating method of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with a washing machine, wherein:

[0018] Figure 1 is a flow chart of a program updating method of the present invention;

[0019] Figure 2 The present invention is a flowchart of a program updating method according to an embodiment of the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. For example, although the present application is described in conjunction with a washing machine and a washing program, the technical solution of the present invention is not limited thereto, and the program update method can obviously also be applied to other clothing processing equipment and clothing processing programs such as a dryer, a washer-dryer, and a shoe washer, and such a change does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention.

[0021] Based on the technical problems raised in the background technology, the present invention provides a program update method for a washing machine, which aims to selectively update the program of the washing machine to remove at least a part of the test program of the washing machine according to the judgment result of whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, thereby avoiding a large number of test programs occupying the memory of the chip of the washing machine, improving the running speed of the chip, reducing the probability of the test program being triggered by mistake, and thus improving the user experience.

[0022] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a flow chart of a program updating method of the present invention; Figure 2 1 is a flow chart of a program updating method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The washing machine stores a program, which includes a plurality of test programs; Figure 1 As shown, the program updating method of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0023] S1. Determine whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound;

[0024] S2. According to the result of determining whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, selectively update the program of the washing machine to remove at least a portion of the multiple test programs.

[0025] Preferably, the washing machine further comprises a communication module, and the communication module may be one of a Bluetooth module, a ZigBee module, a WIFI module or an NFC module. In step S1, the washing machine is bound to the mobile terminal via the communication module.

[0026] Preferably, the mobile terminal includes a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook, etc., and an APP is provided on the mobile terminal, and the washing machine is bound to the APP on the mobile terminal through the communication module. Binding refers to a one-to-one association between the washing machine and the mobile terminal.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, in step S2, the step of "selectively updating the program of the washing machine to remove at least a part of the multiple test programs according to the result of determining whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound" specifically includes:

[0028] S21, if the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, causing the washing machine to perform a program update to remove at least a portion of the multiple test programs;

[0029] S22: If the washing machine and the mobile terminal are not bound, the washing machine is prevented from performing a program update.

[0030] In step S21, if the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, it means that the washing machine has left the factory and entered the display place or the use place. It can be considered that the washing machine has passed the inspection and does not need to be inspected again. The washing machine is then program updated to remove at least part of the multiple test programs, such as removing at least part of the test programs such as the shopping mall demonstration program, production inspection program, and computer board inspection program of the washing machine, so as to reduce the storage capacity of the chip, increase the running speed of the chip, and reduce the probability of the test program being triggered by mistake, so that the user can effectively select the target program and improve the user experience.

[0031] In step S22, if the washing machine and the mobile terminal are not bound, it means that the washing machine has not yet left the factory, or has not yet entered the display place or the use place, and it is impossible to determine whether the washing machine has passed the inspection and whether it needs to be inspected again. In this case, the washing machine will not perform program update to retain all the test programs of the washing machine. When it is detected that the washing machine is bound to the mobile terminal, the program will be updated.

[0032] It should be noted that the multiple test programs are not limited to the above-mentioned shopping mall demonstration program, production inspection program, and computer board inspection program, etc., and may also include other test programs, such as memory performance test program, power on / off test program, and restart test program, etc. Those skilled in the art may flexibly adjust and set the programs included in the test program. The following further describes the shopping mall demonstration program, production inspection program, and computer board inspection program as examples.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment, in step S21, the step of "causing the washing machine to perform a program update to remove at least a portion of the multiple test programs" specifically includes:

[0034] S211, obtaining the current location of the washing machine;

[0035] S212, determining whether the current location is within the preset location range;

[0036] S213, if the current location is within the preset location range, causing the washing machine to update the program to remove part of the multiple test programs;

[0037] S214: If the current location is not within the preset location range, the washing machine is made to update the program to remove all the multiple test programs.

[0038] Among them, the preset place is a display place, and the display place includes places such as shopping malls, supermarkets, and exhibition halls. Of course, the display place is not limited to the places listed above, and may also include places such as trade fairs and hypermarkets. Those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the types of places included in the display place, as long as the place is used to display the washing machine, it belongs to the scope of the display place. By setting the preset place range, a conclusion is given as to whether the washing machine is to be updated to remove part or all of the test programs of the washing machine. In addition, the preset place can also be a place of use, and the place of use includes places such as homes, single apartments, hospitals, hotels, schools, and training centers. Accordingly, in step S213, if the current place is within the preset place range, the washing machine is to be updated to remove all multiple test programs; in step S214, if the current place is not within the preset place range, the washing machine is to be updated to remove part of the multiple test programs.

[0039] In step S213, if the current location is within the range of the preset locations, it means that the current location is within the range of the display locations listed above, and it can be considered that the washing machine has passed the inspection and does not need to be inspected again. However, if it is necessary to demonstrate the various functions of the washing machine to the customers, the washing machine program is updated to remove test programs such as the production inspection program and the computer board inspection program, and only the shopping mall demonstration program is retained, thereby reducing the storage capacity of the chip, increasing the running speed of the chip, and reducing the probability of the test program being triggered by mistake, so that the user can effectively select the target program and improve the user experience.

[0040] In step S214, if the current location is not within the range of the preset locations, it means that the current location is not within the range of the display locations listed above, and since the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, it can be considered that the current location is within the range of the usage locations listed above, indicating that the washing machine has been put into actual use and does not need to be inspected again, and there is no need to demonstrate the various functions of the washing machine to the customer. The washing machine is then program updated to remove all test programs such as the shopping mall demonstration program, production inspection program, and computer board inspection program of the washing machine, thereby minimizing the chip storage capacity, increasing the chip operating speed, and completely avoiding the test program from being triggered by mistake, ensuring that the user can effectively select the target program, and improving the user experience.

[0041] Preferably, in step S211, the step of "obtaining the current location of the washing machine" specifically includes:

[0042] S2111, obtaining the current geographical location information of the washing machine;

[0043] S2112. Determine the current location based on the current geographical location information.

[0044] In order to accurately determine the current geographical location information of the washing machine, the washing machine also includes a GPS positioning module. In step S2111, the current geographical location information of the washing machine can be obtained through the GPS positioning module, so that the current geographical location of the washing machine can be accurately determined. According to the current geographical location, the current location of the washing machine can be accurately determined, providing accurate data for the washing machine to determine whether to remove part or all of the test program. Of course, the positioning module is not limited to the GPS positioning module listed above, and can also be other positioning modules, such as a positioning module of a mobile terminal that is connected to the washing machine for communication. The geographical location of the mobile terminal is located by the positioning module of the mobile terminal at the same geographical location as the washing machine, and the acquired geographical location is sent to the washing machine through the mobile phone, so that the geographical location of the washing machine can be determined. No matter what kind of positioning module is used, as long as the current geographical location information of the washing machine can be obtained, it can be used.

[0045] Alternatively, in step S211, the step of “obtaining the current location of the washing machine” specifically includes:

[0046] S2113, obtaining the location of the input;

[0047] S2114. Determine the input location as the current location.

[0048] Specifically, when the washing machine reaches a new location and cannot obtain the geographic location information of the location, in order to enable the washing machine to determine to remove part or all of the test program based on the current location, the user can input the location, and the washing machine can determine the location entered by the user as the current location.

[0049] It can be seen from the above two implementations that the current location of the washing machine can be the location determined by the current geographical location information obtained by the GPS positioning module, or it can be the location input by the user, and the method of obtaining the current location can be flexibly selected and set.

[0050] In an alternative embodiment, the program further includes at least one laundry processing program, such as three, four or five laundry processing programs; in step S21, the step of "causing the washing machine to perform a program update to remove at least a portion of the multiple test programs" specifically includes:

[0051] S215, determining whether the washing machine has run a complete washing program;

[0052] S216: If the washing machine has run a complete washing program, update the program of the washing machine to remove all the multiple test programs;

[0053] S217: If the washing machine does not run a complete washing program, the washing machine is made to update the program to remove some of the multiple test programs.

[0054] In step S216, if the washing machine has run a complete washing program, it means that the washing machine has been put into actual use. Since the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, it can be considered that the washing machine is in the use location listed above and there is no need to inspect the washing machine again, and there is no need to demonstrate the various functions of the washing machine to the customer. In this case, the washing machine is program updated to remove all test programs such as the shopping mall demonstration program, production inspection program and computer board inspection program of the washing machine, thereby minimizing the storage capacity of the chip, increasing the operating speed of the chip, and completely avoiding the test program from being triggered by mistake, so that the user can effectively select the target program and improve the user experience.

[0055] In step S217, if the washing machine has not run a complete washing program, it means that the washing machine has not been put into actual use. Since the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, it can be considered that the washing machine is in the display location listed above, and the various functions of the washing machine need to be demonstrated to customers. The washing machine is then program updated to remove test programs such as the production inspection program and the computer board inspection program of the washing machine, and only retain the shopping mall demonstration program, thereby reducing the storage capacity of the chip, increasing the operating speed of the chip, and reducing the probability of the test program being falsely triggered, so that the user can effectively select the target program and improve the user experience.

[0056] It should be further explained that the above-mentioned use places have the conditions for the washing machine to run a complete washing program, such as power supply, water filling and drainage, and the washing machine can run a complete washing program; while the above-mentioned display places usually only have power supply conditions, but not water filling and drainage conditions. Only in places with power supply, water filling and drainage conditions can the washing machine run a complete washing program, so the display places do not have the conditions for the washing machine to run a complete washing program. In addition, since no test program is required in the use place, but the mall demonstration program is required in the display place to demonstrate the various functions of the washing machine to customers, it can be judged whether the washing machine should be updated to remove all or part of the test program of the washing machine by whether the washing machine has run a complete washing program.

[0057] In a preferred embodiment, when it is determined that the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, the program update method further includes:

[0058] S201. Send a prompt message to prompt the user to update the program of the washing machine.

[0059] Preferably, the prompt information can be sent through a mobile terminal or a washing machine, and those skilled in the art can flexibly select and set the sender of the prompt information.

[0060] Preferably, the mobile terminal or the washing machine sends prompt information in the form of voice, text, picture, light, etc. to prompt the user to update the program of the washing machine.

[0061] It should be further explained that step S201 can be executed before step S2111, or can be executed simultaneously with step S2111. Those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the execution order of steps S201 and S2111 in actual applications, and such changes do not deviate from the principles and scope of the present invention.

[0062] In addition, the program also includes a one-key recovery program, which is used to restore the washing machine's program to the program before the update. For example, when the washing machine is returned to the factory for repair, a test program needs to be used. At this time, the washing machine can execute the one-key recovery program to restore all the test programs that have been removed from the washing machine, so that maintenance personnel can test the washing machine.

[0063] Refer to the following Figure 2 , Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a program updating method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the complete process of the program updating method of the washing machine of the present invention can be:

[0064] S1. Determine whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound;

[0065] S201, if the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound, sending a prompt message to prompt the user to update the program of the washing machine;

[0066] S2111, obtaining the current geographical location information of the washing machine;

[0067] S2112, determining the current location according to the current geographical location information;

[0068] S212, determining whether the current location is within the preset location range;

[0069] S213, if the current location is within the preset location range, causing the washing machine to update the program to remove part of the multiple test programs;

[0070] S214, if the current location is not within the preset location range, causing the washing machine to update the program to remove all the multiple test programs;

[0071] S22: If the washing machine and the mobile terminal are not bound, the washing machine is prevented from performing a program update.

[0072] It should be pointed out that the above embodiment is only a preferred implementation of the present invention, which is only used to illustrate the principle of the method of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. In practical applications, those skilled in the art can allocate the above functions to different steps as needed, that is, decompose or combine the steps in the embodiment of the present invention. For example, the steps of the above embodiment can be combined into one step, or further divided into multiple sub-steps to complete all or part of the functions described above. The names of the steps involved in the embodiments of the present invention are only for distinguishing the steps and are not regarded as limitations of the present invention.

[0073] In addition, although not shown in the figure, the present invention also provides a washing machine, which includes a body, a chip arranged on the body, a detection module, a positioning module, a communication module and a control module; wherein the chip stores a washing program and multiple test programs; the detection module is used to detect whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound; the positioning is used to determine the current geographical location of the washing machine; the washing machine is bound to the mobile terminal through the communication module; the control module is configured to execute the above-mentioned program update method according to the detection result of whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound detected by the detection module. It should be noted that the detection method of whether the washing machine and the mobile terminal are bound should not constitute a limitation to the present invention.

[0074] Preferably, the communication module may be one of a Bluetooth module, a ZigBee module, a WIFI module or an NFC module.

[0075] Preferably, the positioning module is a GPS positioning module, or a positioning module of a mobile terminal that is communicatively connected to the washing machine. The geographical location of the mobile terminal is located by the positioning module of the mobile terminal that is at the same geographical location as the washing machine, and the acquired geographical location is then sent to the washing machine by the mobile terminal, thereby determining the geographical location of the washing machine. No matter which positioning module is used, as long as the current geographical location information of the washing machine can be obtained, it will suffice.

[0076] Preferably, the mobile terminal includes a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone, a tablet computer, a notebook, etc., and an APP is provided on the mobile terminal, and the washing machine is bound to the APP on the mobile terminal through the communication module. Binding refers to a one-to-one association between the washing machine and the mobile terminal.

[0077] Preferably, the control module can be the control module of the washing machine itself, or an additional control module or other mobile terminal, which will not be described in detail here. In physical form, the control module can be any type of controller, such as a programmable controller, a combinational logic controller, etc.

[0078] So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
