Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to shared washing machine technology, and particularly to a shared washing device and its control method, system, computer device, and medium. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the shared economy, shared washing devices are widely used in public places such as business parks, campuses, and apartment buildings to provide shared laundry services.

[0003] Existing shared washing machines are configured with washing programs. After the user puts the clothes to be washed into the washing machine, they make a payment according to the prompts. After successful payment, the washing machine executes the washing program. The problem is that the existing washing programs are relatively simple. Generally, after selecting the washing mode, the washing machine defaults to full-load washing, unable to identify the weight or material of the clothes to be washed, resulting in the inability to adjust the washing water volume, easily causing water resource waste or the clothes not being rinsed clean; the existing shared washing machines determine the charging amount according to the washing mode selected by the user, and the charging standard cannot be adjusted. Even when washing a small amount of clothes, the full washing fee needs to be paid, increasing the user's consumption cost and resulting in low equipment utilization rate.

[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It can be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than limiting the present invention. Additionally, it should be noted that for the sake of convenience of description, only the parts related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, rather than all the structures.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] Figure 1 It is a flowchart of a control method for a shared washing device provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. Typically, the washing device includes a washing machine.

[0029] As Figure 1 shown, the control method of the shared washing device includes the following steps:

[0030] Step S1: Obtain the initial washing program set by the user and the prepayment corresponding to the initial washing program.

[0031] Among them, the initial washing programs set by the user include a quick wash program, a water-saving washing program, a standard washing program, and a variety of optional clothing material washing programs. Typically, the clothing material washing programs include a wool washing program, a home textile washing program, a down washing program, a shirt washing program, etc.

[0032] Optionally, obtaining the prepayment corresponding to the initial washing program includes: establishing a prepayment database according to the association between the standard washing program and the prepayment amount; matching the initial washing program with the standard washing program in the prepayment database to determine the prepayment.

[0033] Among them, each standard washing program in the prepayment database corresponds to a prepayment amount, and each standard washing program corresponds to a set of initial washing parameters. That is to say, there is a one-to-one mapping correspondence between the standard washing program, the initial washing parameters, and the prepayment amount.

[0034] In this embodiment, the washing programs, washing parameters, and charging amounts generated during the use of multiple shared washing devices in different regions can be obtained, and a prepayment database can be established through big data processing.

[0035] Specifically, when matching the initial washing program with the standard washing program in the prepayment database, the prepayment corresponding to the initial washing program can be the charging amount calculated based on the maximum washing duration, maximum rinsing times, and longest dehydration time in the full-load washing state of the historical data corresponding to the initial washing program.

[0036] Step S2: Complete the initial cost payment according to the prepayment.

[0037] In this embodiment, the prepayment obtained in step S1 can be sent to the mobile client or the display terminal of the shared washing device, and the user scans the code through the mobile client or the display terminal of the shared washing device to complete the mobile payment.

[0038] Step S3: Obtain the clothing information of the clothes to be washed in the inner cylinder of the washing machine. The clothing information includes one or more combinations of clothing weight, clothing height, and clothing material.

[0039] Exemplarily, a camera can be used to collect images of the clothes in the inner drum of the washing machine, and image analysis technology can be used to obtain the height and material of the clothes to be washed. The height of the clothes is the distance from the highest point of all the clothes to the bottom surface of the inner drum of the washing machine after stirring the clothes in the inner drum of the washing machine.

[0040] Exemplarily, a height detection unit can be used to detect the height of the clothes put into the inner drum of the washing machine, and a weighing unit arranged at the bottom of the inner drum of the washing machine can be used to detect the weight of the clothes put into the inner drum of the washing machine. Typically, the height detection unit can be a distance sensor, and the weighing unit can be a weighing sensor.

[0041] Step S4: Determine the actual washing parameters according to the initial washing program and the clothing information. The actual washing parameters include the water inlet volume of the washing water, the detergent addition amount, the washing duration, the number of rinses, and the dehydration duration.

[0042] Among them, the initial washing parameters are included in the initial washing program set by the user. The initial washing parameters include the initial water inlet volume of the washing water, the initial detergent addition amount, the initial washing duration, the initial number of rinses, and the initial dehydration duration. The initial washing parameters can be adjusted according to the water inlet volume of the washing water, the detergent addition amount, the washing duration, the number of rinses, and the dehydration duration determined according to the clothing information to obtain the actual washing parameters.

[0043] Optionally, determining the actual washing parameters according to the initial washing program and the clothing information includes the following steps: establishing a washing database according to the association between the standard washing program and the washing parameters; determining whether the initial washing program is an intelligent washing mode; if the initial washing program is an intelligent washing mode, determining the actual washing parameters according to the clothing information; if the initial washing program is not an intelligent washing mode, matching the initial washing program with the standard washing programs in the washing database to determine the actual washing parameters.

[0044] Among them, each standard washing program in the washing database corresponds to a set of washing parameters.

[0045] Specifically, if the initial washing program is not an intelligent washing mode, the clothing information is not obtained, and the system controls the laundry and charges according to the initial washing parameters; if the initial washing program is an intelligent washing mode, the clothing information is obtained; the water inlet volume of the washing water, the detergent addition amount, the washing duration, the number of rinses, and the dehydration duration are determined according to one or more of the clothing weight, clothing height, and clothing material, and this set of parameters is used as the actual washing parameters.

[0046] Step S5: Control the shared washing device to perform the water inlet and laundry operations according to the actual washing parameters until the laundry is finished.

[0047] Among them, the laundry operation includes multiple steps such as washing, rinsing, and dehydration. After the dehydration program is completed, the user is notified that the laundry is finished.

[0048] Step S6: Determine the actual laundry cost according to the actual washing parameters, and the actual laundry cost is lower than the prepaid cost.

[0049] In this embodiment, the actual laundry cost calculation can be performed after detecting that the user takes out the clothes. If the user needs to perform auxiliary washing operations such as drying or mite removal before taking out the clothes, an instruction can be input after the dehydration program ends. At this time, the cost of the auxiliary washing operation needs to be added to the actual laundry cost, thereby simplifying the operation.

[0050] Step S7: Determine the cost difference according to the prepaid cost and the actual laundry cost, and refund the fee according to the cost difference.

[0051] In this embodiment, after the user puts in the clothes to be washed and sets the initial washing program, the prepaid cost can be immediately obtained. After the user completes the payment, the shared washing device recalculates the billing cost according to the actually put-in clothes to be washed to obtain the actual laundry cost. After the laundry is finished, the user retrieves the clothes, and the system determines the cost difference according to the prepaid cost and the actual laundry cost, and returns the cost difference to the payment account bound to the mobile payment.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present invention, the control method of the shared washing device performs prepayment through the prepaid cost corresponding to the initial washing program, determines the actual washing parameters by detecting the clothing information, performs the laundry operation according to the actual washing parameters, calculates the actual laundry cost according to the actual washing parameters, and refunds the fee according to the difference between the prepayment and the actual laundry cost after the laundry is finished, solving the problems of unreasonable charging mode of the shared washing machine and inability to change the washing parameters during the washing process, achieving the purpose of performing washing and billing according to the information of the clothes to be washed, being beneficial to optimizing the billing mode, saving the waiting time for payment, optimizing the washing parameter settings, improving the washing effect, avoiding waste of fees and resources, and enhancing the user experience.

[0053] Figure 2 It is a flowchart of another control method of the shared washing device provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

[0054] Optionally, as Figure 2 shown, determining the actual laundry cost according to the actual washing parameters includes the following steps:

[0055] Step S201: Determine the actual water cost, actual detergent cost, and actual electricity cost according to the actual washing parameters.

[0056] Among them, the actual washing parameters include the water inlet volume of the washing water, the number of washing times, the water inlet volume of the rinsing, the number of rinsing times, the detergent addition amount, the detergent addition type, the washing duration, the number of rinsing times, and the dehydration duration.

[0057] Specifically, the actual water consumption cost can be calculated according to the water inlet volume of the washing water, the number of washing times, the water inlet volume of the rinsing, the number of rinsing times, and the unit price of the water fee per unit time; the actual detergent cost can be determined according to the detergent addition amount and the detergent addition type; the actual electricity consumption cost can be calculated according to the washing duration, the number of rinsing times, the dehydration duration, and the unit price of the electricity fee per unit time.

[0058] Step S202: Determine the actual laundry cost according to the actual water consumption cost, the actual detergent cost, and the actual electricity consumption cost.

[0059] Among them, the actual laundry cost is the sum of the actual water consumption cost, the actual detergent cost, and the actual electricity consumption cost.

[0060] Figure 3 It is a flowchart of another control method for a shared washing device provided in the first embodiment of the present invention.

[0061] Optionally, as Figure 3 shown, when performing the washing operation, the control method of the shared washing device further includes the following steps:

[0062] Step S301: Execute the detergent detection program to obtain the detergent detection result.

[0063] Step S302: Determine whether it is necessary to increase the number of rinsing times or increase the washing duration.

[0064] If so, execute Step S303; otherwise, continue to execute Step S301.

[0065] Step S303: Update the actual washing parameters according to the increased number of rinsing times or the increased washing duration.

[0066] Step S304: Determine the actual laundry cost according to the updated actual washing parameters, and continue to perform the laundry operation according to the updated actual washing parameters.

[0067] Specifically, the detergent can be detected through foam detection technology by detecting the foam height in the inner drum of the washing device. If the foam height is greater than the preset height threshold, it is determined that the number of rinsing times needs to be increased or the washing duration needs to be extended. If the number of rinsing times is increased by a first increment, the data of the number of rinsing times in the actual washing parameters is increased by the first increment to obtain the updated number of rinsing times; if the washing duration is increased by a second increment, the data of the washing duration in the actual washing parameters is increased by the second increment to obtain the updated washing duration. Then, continue to perform the laundry operation according to the updated actual washing parameters, such as extending the washing time or increasing the number of rinsing times. After the laundry is finished, determine the actual laundry cost according to the updated actual washing parameters.

[0068] Figure 4 It is a flowchart of another control method for a shared washing device provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

[0069] Optionally, as Figure 4 shown, after the dehydration is completed, the control method of the shared washing device further includes:

[0070] Step S401: Determine whether to select to execute an auxiliary washing program, where the auxiliary washing program includes at least one of a drying program, a sterilization program, or a mite removal program.

[0071] If so, execute Step S402; otherwise, return to execute Step S401.

[0072] In this embodiment, the user can input an operation instruction for the auxiliary washing program at the place where the clothes to be washed are put in or after the dehydration is completed. If the operation instruction for the auxiliary washing program is received, it is determined that the auxiliary washing program needs to be executed.

[0073] Step S402: Determine the auxiliary washing parameters according to the clothing information.

[0074] Among them, the auxiliary washing parameters include the drying duration, drying temperature, sterilization heating temperature, sterilization duration, mite removal temperature, and mite removal duration.

[0075] Step S403: Control the shared washing device to perform the auxiliary washing operation according to the auxiliary washing parameters until the auxiliary washing is completed.

[0076] Step S404: Determine the actual laundry cost according to the actual washing parameters and the auxiliary washing parameters.

[0077] Specifically, calculate the additional water cost and additional electricity cost required for performing the auxiliary washing operation according to the auxiliary washing parameters, and determine the actual laundry cost based on the sum of the laundry cost, additional water cost, and additional electricity cost obtained in Step S202, which is beneficial to expanding the application scenarios of the shared washing device and improving the user experience.

[0078] Optionally, the control method of the shared washing device further includes: reserving the shared washing device through a mobile client.

[0079] Figure 5 It is a flowchart of another control method of the shared washing device provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention.

[0080] As Figure 5 shown, reserving the shared washing device through a mobile client includes the following steps:

[0081] Step S501: Send a washing request to the server through the mobile client.

[0082] Step S502: Obtain the recommended information of the shared washing device that meets the washing request through the server, and send the recommended information to the mobile client.

[0083] Step S503: View the recommended information through the mobile client, and send a locking instruction to the selected target shared washing device.

[0084] Specifically, the mobile client is configured with a preset software program. Typically, this software program can implement a map display mode. When it is necessary to reserve a shared washing device, a communication connection is established among the mobile client, the server, and the shared washing device. The user sends a washing request through the mobile client. The server obtains the shared washing devices in the idle state near the location of the mobile client, and sends the recommended information of the above-mentioned shared washing devices in the idle state to the mobile client. The user can view and reserve through the software program. The reservation instruction sent by the user is sent to the shared washing device through the server to lock the device, which is convenient for realizing remote reservation and viewing, improving the use convenience, and enhancing the user experience.

[0085] In this embodiment, the mobile client can be one or a combination of a smart phone, a tablet computer, and a notebook computer.
