The execution subject of the method can be Figure 1The processor 102 in the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes a determination phase and a processing phase. In the determination phase, the processor 102 determines whether the washing water can be used by the second washing tub according to the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of a washing machine, such as a duplex washing machine, and the laundry information of the laundry to be washed in the second washing tub. In the processing phase, when the washing water can be used by the second washing tub, the processor 102 discharges the washing water to the second washing tub, thereby solving the problem that the existing washing machine stores water in a water storage container and has a low washing water saving rate.

[0052] The technical solution of the present application is described below by taking several embodiments as examples, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments.

[0053] Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a water-saving laundry method provided in an embodiment of the present application. The execution subject of this embodiment may be Figure 1 The specific execution subject of the processor 102 can be determined according to the actual application scenario. Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, a washing machine is taken as a duplex washing machine as an example, wherein the duplex washing machine may include a first washing tub and a second washing tub. The size, position and other information of the two washing tubs may be determined according to actual conditions. For example, the two washing tubs are of equal size and are arranged in upper and lower positions. The embodiment of the present application does not impose any special restrictions on this. The water-saving washing method provided in the embodiment of the present application includes the following steps:

[0054] S201: obtaining the water quality of washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine, and obtaining clothing information of the clothes to be washed in the second washing tub of the duplex washing machine, wherein the clothing information includes at least one of the color of the clothes and the material of the clothes.

[0055] Among them, the above-mentioned duplex washing machine can be determined according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present application do not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0056] Optionally, the above water quality includes turbidity.

[0057] After obtaining the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine, the processor may further:

[0058] Determine whether the turbidity is lower than a preset threshold;

[0059] If the turbidity is lower than the preset threshold, the step of obtaining the laundry information of the laundry to be washed in the second washing tub of the duplex washing machine is performed.

[0060] Among them, the above-mentioned preset threshold value can be determined according to actual conditions, for example, according to the average turbidity value of a large amount of repeatedly used washing water, and the embodiment of the present application does not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0061] Here, after obtaining the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine, the processor first determines whether the turbidity is lower than a preset threshold value. If it is lower, it means that the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub is good and may be reused. In order to further determine whether it can be reused, the processor further obtains the clothing information of the clothes to be washed in the second washing tub of the duplex washing machine, thereby determining whether the washing water can be used by the second washing tub based on the water quality and clothing information. Among them, the processor improves the accuracy of the subsequent processing results by judging whether the turbidity is lower than the preset threshold value and executing the subsequent steps only when it is lower, and can reduce some operations (for example, not executing the subsequent steps when the turbidity is higher than the preset threshold value), which is suitable for practical applications.

[0062] In addition, the processor can also obtain the clothing information of the washed clothes in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine, and the clothing information includes at least one of the clothing color and clothing material. If the clothing information includes the clothing color, the processor can determine whether the clothing color is a preset color, and if so, stop the operation, otherwise, execute the above step of obtaining the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine. Among them, the above preset color can be determined according to actual conditions, such as dark colors such as black. Similarly, if the clothing information includes the clothing material, the processor can determine whether the clothing material is a preset material, and if so, stop the operation, otherwise, execute the above step of obtaining the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine.

[0064] Exemplarily, the processor can preset the correspondence between the reference water quality and the laundry, that is, preset the relationship between different water qualities and their corresponding laundry. The specific setting can be based on actual conditions. For example, taking the reference water quality including turbidity as an example, if the reference turbidity is 5%, the laundry is light-colored, cotton, etc. The embodiment of the present application does not impose any special restrictions on this.

[0065] In some feasible embodiments, determining whether the washing water can be used by the second washing tub according to the water quality and the clothing information may include:

[0066] Obtaining the correspondence between preset reference water quality and washing clothes;

[0067] According to the above correspondence, determine the laundry corresponding to the above water quality;

[0068] According to the laundry information and the laundry information of the laundry corresponding to the water quality, it is determined whether the washing water can be used by the second washing tub.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present application, after obtaining the correspondence between the reference water quality and the laundry, the processor can determine the laundry corresponding to the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine according to the correspondence, thereby determining whether the washing water can be used by the second washing tub based on the laundry information of the laundry to be washed in the second washing tub of the duplex washing machine and the laundry information of the laundry corresponding to the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine. For example, if the laundry information of the laundry corresponding to the water quality of the washing water used in the first washing tub of the duplex washing machine contains the laundry information of the laundry to be washed in the second washing tub of the duplex washing machine, it is determined that the washing water can be used by the second washing tub, otherwise, it is determined that the washing water cannot be used by the second washing tub.

[0070] S203: If the washing water can be used by the second washing tub, the washing water is discharged to the second washing tub.

[0071] Here, before draining the washing water into the second washing tub, the method may further include:

[0072] generating a prompt for whether to reuse water, and displaying the prompt on a display screen of the duplex washing machine;

[0074] In an embodiment of the present application, if the above-mentioned washing water can be used by the second washing tub, the processor can generate a prompt on whether to reuse the water and display the above-mentioned prompt on the display screen of the above-mentioned duplex washing machine, so as to remind the user whether to reuse the water. If information confirming reuse of water is obtained, for example, information confirming reuse of water input by the user is received, the above-mentioned washing water is discharged to the second washing tub to meet the actual application needs.

[0075] Here, the first washing tub may be an upper tub of a duplex washing machine, and the second washing tub may be a lower tub of a duplex washing machine, which may be determined according to actual conditions, and the embodiment of the present application does not impose any particular limitation on this.

[0076] In addition, if the washing water cannot be used by the second washing tub, the washing water is excluded from the duplex washing machine.
