[0064] With the promotion of the concepts of the Internet of Things and smart homes, the intelligence of furniture equipment can bring more convenience to life. The current washing machine is no longer just a tool for washing clothes. In addition to the washing function, the washing machine also has many other functions, such as lighting, sterilization, drying, air drying, voice control, etc., and has gradually become an indispensable household appliance in the lives of users. In the prior art, users usually place the clothes to be washed in a dirty clothes basket. Since there are many types of clothes and clothes of different types may not be suitable for washing together, users purchase multiple dirty clothes baskets and place different types of clothes in different dirty clothes baskets for distinction. When there are enough clothes to be washed in the dirty clothes basket, the user is prompted to wash the clothes to be washed, or when the user is relatively free, the clothes to be washed in the dirty clothes basket are actively placed in the washing machine for washing. However, in the prior art, by placing clothes of different types of clothes to be washed in multiple dirty clothes baskets, it is impossible to achieve automatic washing of the clothes to be washed in the dirty clothes basket, and the risk of color cross-talk of the clothes to be washed is not considered, resulting in poor user experience.

[0065] The inventive concept of the washing machine control method, device and washing machine provided in the embodiments of the present application is that by setting multiple storage areas in the washing machine, each area stores clothes of different types to be washed, and by controlling the washing machine to wash the clothes to be washed in the storage area according to the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area, the color information of the clothes, and the washing conditions corresponding to each storage area, not only the automatic washing of the clothes to be washed by the washing machine is realized, but also by considering the color information of the clothes to be washed, the risk of color mixing of the clothes to be washed can be reduced, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0066] The following is an introduction to exemplary application scenarios of the embodiments of the present application.

[0067] The washing machine control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be executed by the washing machine control device provided in the embodiment of the present application. The washing machine control device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be integrated in the washing machine, or the washing machine control device can be the washing machine itself. In a possible implementation, Figure 1 is an exemplary application scenario architecture diagram provided by an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the architecture mainly includes: a washing machine 11 and a server 12. The washing machine 11 is provided with a plurality of storage areas 13, and the storage areas 13 are used to place the clothes to be washed. Each storage area may be provided with a label, and the label is used to identify the type of clothes to be washed stored in the storage area. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the number, position, shape, size, etc. of the storage areas. Figure 1In the example, only three storage areas 13 are provided in the washing machine, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. A gravity sensor may be provided in the storage area 13 of the washing machine to obtain the weight value of the clothes to be washed in the storage area 13. The storage area 13 may also be provided with an image sensor or a recognition device to obtain the color information of the clothes to be washed, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto. The washing machine 11 may communicate data with the server 12, for example, the washing machine 11 may perform data calculations through the server 12, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0068] Figure 2 1 is a flow chart of a washing machine control method provided by an embodiment of the present application. The method can be executed by a washing machine control device, and the device can be implemented by software and / or hardware. The washing machine control method is described below with a washing machine as the execution subject. Figure 2 As shown, the method in the embodiment of the present application may include:

[0069] Step S101: Detecting the weight value of the laundry to be washed in each storage area of ​​the washing machine and the laundry color information of the laundry to be washed.

[0070] The washing machine includes multiple storage areas, each of which can be used to store clothes of different types to be washed. For example, the storage area can include a children's clothing storage area, an underwear storage area, a coat storage area, a socks storage area, etc. The embodiment of the present application is only taken as an example and is not limited to this. For example, other areas can also be included or the storage areas can be classified in other classification methods. In addition, each storage area can also include a corresponding identification. The identification of the storage area can be used to identify the type of clothes to be washed stored in the storage area. For example, the identification of the children's clothing storage area is "children's clothing", etc. The embodiment of the present application is only taken as an example and is not limited to this.

[0071] A gravity sensor may be included in each storage area. In the embodiment of the present application, the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area of ​​the washing machine is detected. The detection value of the gravity sensor in the storage area can be obtained by the washing machine to obtain the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area. The embodiment of the present application only takes this as an example.

[0072] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific implementation method of detecting the color information of the clothes to be washed in each storage area of ​​the washing machine. In one possible implementation, a camera can be set in the washing machine, and the camera is used to obtain the image of the clothes to be washed in each storage area, so that the image processing module in the washing machine processes the image taken by the camera to obtain the color information of the clothes to be washed in each storage area. In another possible implementation, the color information of the clothes to be washed in each storage area can be obtained by identifying the label of the clothes to be washed and reading the color information of the clothes to be washed in the label of the clothes to be washed. The embodiment of the present application is only taken as an example and is not limited to this.

[0073] Step S102: According to the weight value of the laundry to be washed in each storage area and the laundry color information of the laundry to be washed, the washing machine is controlled to wash the laundry to be washed in the storage area.

[0074] After detecting the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area of ​​the washing machine and the clothes color information of the clothes to be washed, the embodiment of the present application controls the washing machine to wash the clothes to be washed in the storage area according to the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area and the clothes color information of the clothes to be washed. For example, a preset condition can be set by the washing machine. For example, when the weight value of the clothes to be washed meets the preset weight condition and the color of the clothes to be washed meets the preset color combination condition, it is judged that the preset condition is met, otherwise it is not satisfied. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific implementation method of controlling the washing machine to wash the clothes to be washed in the storage area. For example, the washing machine can be used to judge whether the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area and the clothes color information meet the preset conditions. If the preset conditions are met, the washing machine is controlled to wash the clothes to be washed in the storage area. For another example, the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area, the clothes color information, the washing conditions and other information can be sent to a server that communicates data with the washing machine, so that the server can judge whether the clothes to be washed in each storage area meet the preset conditions, so as to control the washing machine to wash the clothes to be washed in the storage area.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present application, the washing machine is controlled to wash the clothes to be washed in the storage area according to the weight value of the clothes to be washed in each storage area and the color information of the clothes. This not only realizes the automatic washing of the clothes to be washed by the washing machine, but also reduces the risk of color mixing of the clothes to be washed by considering the color information of the clothes to be washed, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0076] On the basis of the above embodiments, in the user's home, there may be no one to dry the clothes at home during certain time periods because the user needs to go to work, or some family members are resting. In order to solve the problem that the user cannot dry the washed clothes in time or may disturb the user, in a possible implementation manner, the washing machine control method provided in the embodiment of the present application may also include: determining the working time period of the washing machine; controlling the washing machine to wash the first clothes to be washed, including: controlling the washing machine to wash the first clothes to be washed during the working time period.

[0077] For example, the working time period for washing can be set after 6 pm on weekdays and between 8 am and 10 pm on weekends to avoid time periods when no one is at home. By controlling the washing machine to work during the working time period, the problem that the user cannot hang the washed clothes in time after the washing machine has finished washing can be avoided, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0078] On the basis of the above embodiment, for clothes of different types to be washed, the user may have different replacement frequencies for clothes, and priorities may be set for different storage areas to achieve washing of clothes of different types to be washed in each storage area in sequence according to user needs. In a possible implementation, the washing machine control method provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes:

[0079] Determine the priority of each storage area; if within a preset time period, there are multiple storage areas that simultaneously meet their corresponding washing conditions, then use the priority corresponding to each storage area in the multiple storage areas to control the washing machine to wash the clothes to be washed in the multiple storage areas.

[0080] like Figure 1 As shown, when the number of storage areas is 3, the 3 storage areas can be sorted to determine the priority of each storage area, and when there are multiple storage areas within a preset time period and their corresponding washing conditions are met, the clothes to be washed in the storage areas with higher priorities are washed first. This embodiment of the present application only takes this as an example.

[0081] exist Figure 2 Based on the illustrated embodiment, in a possible implementation, each storage area includes respective washing conditions, and the washing conditions include weight conditions and color mixing conditions. The weight condition may be a preset weight threshold, and the color mixing condition may be a preset color mixing risk. Figure 3 1 is a flow chart of a washing machine control method provided by another embodiment of the present application. The method can be executed by a washing machine control device, and the device can be implemented by software and / or hardware. The washing machine control method is described below with a washing machine as the execution subject. Figure 3As shown, step S102 in the embodiment of the present application, i.e., controlling the washing machine to wash the laundry in the storage area according to the weight value of the laundry in each storage area and the laundry color information of the laundry, may include:

[0082] Step S201: determining a target washing condition corresponding to a target storage area, wherein the target washing condition includes a first preset weight threshold and a preset risk of color crosstalk of the target storage area.

[0083] Step S202: determining the color transfer risk of the first laundry to be washed according to the laundry color information of the first laundry to be washed.

[0084] Step S203: If the weight value of the first laundry to be washed reaches a first preset threshold value and the risk of color cross-talk is lower than a preset risk of color cross-talk, the washing machine is controlled to wash the first laundry to be washed.

[0085] Wherein, the target storage area is any one of the storage areas, and the first laundry to be washed is the laundry to be washed in the target storage area. Since the types of laundry to be washed stored in different storage areas are different, the frequency of changing and washing of the laundry to be washed in different storage areas, as well as the size and size of the laundry to be washed, may also be different. By setting the corresponding washing conditions for each storage area, the laundry to be washed of different types of laundry can be washed to enhance the user experience. Wherein, the washing conditions include but are not limited to the weight condition and the color-crossing condition, wherein the weight condition is used to limit the weight of the laundry to be washed by the washing machine, and the color-crossing condition is used to reduce the risk of color-crossing of the laundry to be washed. The washing conditions may also include other conditions, such as the placement time. For example, if the laundry to be washed in the storage area exceeds the preset time, although the weight of the laundry to be washed in the storage area may not meet the weight condition, the laundry to be washed in the storage area may be washed to prevent the laundry from being placed in the storage area for too long, resulting in more bacteria breeding in the laundry to be washed and causing sanitation problems. The embodiment of the present application is only taken as an example and is not limited thereto.

[0086] For the weight condition in the washing condition, for ease of understanding, for example, the weight of children's clothes and underwear is relatively light, and the weight condition in the washing condition corresponding to the storage area of ​​children's clothes and the storage area of ​​underwear can be set relatively small, while the weight of adult clothes is relatively heavy, and the weight condition in the washing condition corresponding to the storage area of ​​adult clothes can be set relatively large. This embodiment of the present application is only taken as an example.

[0087] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific implementation method of determining the target washing conditions corresponding to the target storage area. In one possible implementation, determining the target washing conditions corresponding to the target storage area includes: determining the clothing type of the first clothing to be washed; using the clothing type and the first corresponding relationship to determine the target washing conditions corresponding to the target storage area, the first corresponding relationship being the corresponding relationship between the clothing type, the first preset weight threshold, and the preset risk of cross-coloring. In the embodiment of the present application, the target washing conditions of the target area are determined by the clothing type and the first corresponding relationship, so that the storage areas for storing different types of clothing are set with corresponding washing conditions, thereby improving the intelligence of automatic washing of clothing to be washed. In another possible implementation, the washing conditions of each storage area can be pre-set, and the washing conditions corresponding to the storage area can be determined by the identification of the storage area. The embodiment of the present application takes this as an example only and is not limited to this.

[0088] The embodiment of the present application does not limit the specific implementation method of determining the risk of color cross-talk of the first laundry to be washed according to the clothing color information of the first laundry to be washed. For example, the color that is easy to cross-talk and the color that is easily affected by color cross-talk can be determined through the clothing color information of the first laundry to be washed. When there are both clothes with easy to cross-talk colors and clothes with easy to be affected by color cross-talk in the first laundry to be washed, it is determined that the risk of color cross-talk of the first laundry to be washed is high. For another example, the color system of the first laundry to be washed can be determined through the clothing color information of the first laundry to be washed. If the first laundry to be washed belongs to the same color system, it is determined that the risk of color cross-talk of the first laundry to be washed is low. If the first laundry to be washed belongs to different color systems, it is determined that the risk of color cross-talk of the first laundry to be washed is high. The embodiment of the present application takes this as an example only and is not limited thereto.

[0089] The preset color cross-linking risk may be a color cross-linking risk level or a color cross-linking risk score, which may be specifically set according to the evaluation method of the color cross-linking risk, and the embodiment of the present application does not limit this. When the weight value of the first laundry to be washed reaches the first preset threshold value and the color cross-linking risk is lower than the preset color cross-linking risk, the washing machine is controlled to wash the first laundry to be washed. This can not only avoid the waste of resources caused by too few laundry to be washed, but also reduce the color cross-linking risk of the laundry to be washed.

[0090] In order to further improve the washing effect of the washing machine on the clothes to be washed, in a possible implementation, controlling the washing machine to wash the first clothes to be washed may also include: determining a target washing program to be executed for the first clothes to be washed according to the clothing type of the first clothes to be washed and / or the clothing material of the first clothes to be washed; and washing the first clothes to be washed using the target washing program.

[0091] In order to meet the washing needs of users, the washing machine may include multiple washing modes, such as a cotton and linen washing program, a down jacket washing program, a normal washing program, a wool washing program, etc., suitable for washing different clothes. For example, if the type of clothing is a coat and the material of the clothing is wool, the wool washing program may be selected to wash the clothing to be washed. In the embodiment of the present application, by considering the type of clothing or the material of the clothing to be washed, the washing program of the clothing to be washed is selected, thereby further improving the washing effect of the washing machine on the clothing to be washed.

[0092] exist Figure 2 or Figure 3 Based on the embodiment shown, in a possible implementation manner, according to the weight value of the laundry to be washed in each storage area and the laundry color information of the laundry to be washed, controlling the washing machine to wash the laundry to be washed in the storage area includes:

[0093] Determine a target washing condition corresponding to a target storage area, the target washing condition comprising a first preset weight threshold and a preset color cross-talk risk of the target storage area, and the target storage area is any one of the storage areas; send clothing color information of a first piece of clothing to be washed to a server, so that the server determines the color cross-talk risk of the first piece of clothing to be washed according to the clothing color information of the first piece of clothing to be washed, and send a washing instruction to the washing machine when the weight value of the first piece of clothing to be washed reaches a first preset threshold and the color cross-talk risk is lower than the preset color cross-talk risk, the washing instruction is used to instruct the washing machine to wash the first piece of clothing to be washed, wherein the first piece of clothing to be washed is the clothing to be washed in the target storage area; control the washing machine to wash the first piece of clothing to be washed.
