[0026] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures, are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] Figure 1 1 is a flow chart of a washing machine control method provided by Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to the case where the laundry processing program of the washing machine is adjusted when adding clothes midway. The method can be executed by a washing machine control device, which can be implemented by software and / or hardware, and the device can be integrated in the washing machine, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method specifically includes:

[0029] Step 110: When it is detected that clothes are added to the washing machine, the current clothes processing program of the washing machine is obtained.

[0030] Among them, adding clothes midway means opening the drum cover of the washing machine again to add clothes after the washing machine starts the clothes processing program. Washing machines can have different types or different washing methods, such as pulsator washing machines, tumble washing machines; or semi-automatic washing machines, fully automatic washing machines, etc.

[0031] There may be various ways to detect whether a washing machine adds clothes midway. For example, for a smart washing machine (such as a fully automatic washing machine), it may be determined whether to add clothes midway based on the user's operating commands to the washing machine. For example, when the user issues an instruction to add clothes midway in the washing machine or a smart terminal connected to the washing machine, it may be determined that the washing machine adds clothes midway.

[0032] For another example, for various types of washing machines, it is possible to detect whether the drum cover of the washing machine is opened; if the drum cover of the washing machine is opened, it is possible to further detect the weight inside the washing machine before and after the drum cover is opened; if the weight changes, it is determined that the washing machine has added clothes midway; otherwise, it is determined that the washing machine has not added clothes midway. The weight change value can be used as the weight of clothes added midway. Among them, for a rolling washing machine, when the drum cover of the washing machine is opened, it may be necessary to perform a drainage operation, and the weight inside the washing machine after drainage can be determined as the weight before the drum cover of the washing machine is opened; the weight after the drum cover of the washing machine is closed is the weight after the drum cover of the washing machine is opened, which can ensure the accuracy of the determination of clothes added midway and the accuracy of the determination of the weight of clothes added midway.

[0033] The clothes treatment program may include a washing program, a rinsing program, and a dehydration and spin-drying program. The washing program may be a program for washing clothes by adding laundry detergent, and may include operations such as water injection, adding laundry detergent, and washing. The rinsing program may be a program for washing clothes by adding laundry softener, and may include operations such as water injection, adding laundry softener, and washing. The dehydration and spin-drying program may be a program for draining and spinning clothes after the washing program or the rinsing program.

[0034] In this embodiment, the execution order of the laundry processing program may be a washing program, a rinsing program, and a spin-drying program, or may be a washing program, a spin-drying program, a rinsing program, and a spin-drying program. There may be multiple ways to obtain the current laundry processing program, for example, it may be determined according to the current execution time of the washing machine, or it may be determined according to the program switching of the laundry processing program.

[0035] Exemplarily, if the clothing treatment program is a washing program, it can be determined that the current clothing treatment program is a washing program; if the clothing treatment program is a dehydration and spin-drying program after the washing program and before the rinsing program, it can be determined that the current clothing treatment program is a rinsing program; if the clothing treatment program includes multiple rinsing programs, and the clothing treatment program is a dehydration and spin-drying program between the multiple rinsing programs, it can be determined that the current clothing treatment program is a rinsing program; if the clothing treatment program is a dehydration and spin-drying program after the last rinsing program, it can be determined that the current clothing treatment program is a dehydration and spin-drying program.

[0036] Step 120: If the current laundry processing program is a rinsing program, a pre-wash program is executed.

[0037] Among them, when the current laundry processing program is the rinsing program, the laundry before adding the laundry in the washing machine has been washed, and if the washing machine continues the rinsing program, the laundry added in the middle may not be washed clean. In order to ensure that the laundry added in the middle of the washing machine can also be washed clean, the laundry processing program of the washing machine needs to be adjusted.

[0038] The pre-wash program can be a program for pre-washing clothes. In an embodiment of the present invention, the pre-wash program can be executed when the current clothing processing program is a rinsing program. This can facilitate pre-determining the turbidity of the clothes in the washing machine, and then determine parameters such as the time required to wash the clothes or the washing intensity, so as to facilitate washing the clothes cleanly.

[0039] In one implementation of the embodiments of the present invention, optionally, a pre-wash program is performed, including: determining the pre-wash time according to the weight of clothes added during the process, and processing the pre-wash time for the clothes after refilling the washing machine with water.

[0040] The weight of adding clothes midway can be input by the user in the washing machine or the smart terminal when the user issues the instruction to add clothes midway; or, it can be determined by the washing machine based on the attribute information for adding clothes midway; or, it can be determined based on the weight difference before and after the drum cover of the washing machine is opened.

[0041] There may be a mapping relationship between the weight of clothes added during the process and the pre-wash time. For example, the greater the weight of clothes added during the process, the longer the pre-wash time. The weight of clothes added during the process may be divided into weight levels in advance, and different pre-wash times may be determined according to different weight levels. For example, when the weight of clothes added during the process is less than 0.5 kg, the pre-wash time may be determined to be 5 minutes; when the weight of clothes added during the process is greater than or equal to 0.5 kg and less than 1 kg, the pre-wash time may be determined to be 8 minutes; when the weight of clothes added during the process is greater than or equal to 1 kg, the pre-wash time may be determined to be 10 minutes.

[0042] Exemplarily, executing the pre-wash program may be draining the water in the washing machine, spinning it, and then refilling it with water, and treating the clothes in the washing machine, and the treatment time is the pre-wash time. Alternatively, executing the pre-wash program may be draining the water in the washing machine and then refilling it with water, and treating the clothes for the pre-wash time. Among them, refilling water may be determined based on the weight of clothes added midway and the weight of clothes before the clothes are added midway. For example, the total weight of clothes in the washing machine may be determined based on the weight of clothes added midway and the weight of clothes before the clothes are added midway; the amount of water required for pre-washing may be determined based on the total weight of clothes. The greater the total weight of clothes, the greater the amount of water required for pre-washing. The determination method may be determined by conducting experiments in advance. For the same total weight of clothes, the amount of water required for pre-washing of different types of washing machines may be the same or different. For example, for the same total weight of clothes, the amount of water required for pre-washing of a pulsator washing machine may be greater than the amount of water required for pre-washing of a drum washing machine.

[0043] In another exemplary embodiment, executing the pre-washing procedure may be to refill the washing machine with water and process the clothes in the washing machine, and the processing time is the pre-washing time. The refilling of water may be determined according to the weight of clothes added during the process. For example, when the weight of clothes added during the process exceeds the preset weight, the washing machine may be refilled with water; when the weight of clothes added during the process does not exceed the preset weight, the amount of water refilled into the washing machine may be 0. The preset weight may be 0.5 kg. When the weight of clothes added during the process exceeds 0.5 kg, the amount of water refilled may be determined according to the excess weight value. For example, when the weight of clothes added during the process is 1.0 kg, which exceeds the preset weight by 0.5 kg, the amount of water refilled may be determined to be 3 liters for a pulsator washing machine. On the basis of maintaining the current amount of water in the washing machine, 3 liters of water may be refilled into the washing machine for pre-washing. The method of determining the amount of water refilled according to the excess weight value may also be determined by conducting a test in advance. For the same excess weight value, the amount of water refilled determined by different types of washing machines may be the same or different.

[0044] Step 130: Detect the turbidity of the water in the washing machine tub.

[0045] Turbidity refers to the degree of turbidity of the water in the washing machine, and the turbidity can be detected by a turbidity meter, a turbidity detector, or a turbidity sensor, etc. When the turbidity of the water in the washing machine drum is detected, the turbidity of the pre-washing process of the washing machine can be detected after the pre-washing process is completed.

[0046] Step 140: Add laundry detergent according to the turbidity, and execute a washing program to process the laundry.

[0047] Among them, turbidity represents the degree of dirtiness of the clothes in the washing machine. The greater the turbidity, the dirtier the clothes, and the smaller the turbidity, the cleaner the clothes. The laundry detergent can be a detergent for washing clothes, such as laundry detergent, washing powder or soapy water. There can be a mapping relationship between turbidity and laundry detergent, and the mapping relationship can be different for different types or brands of laundry detergents. For example, for the same turbidity, the amount of laundry detergent required may be more than the amount of washing powder. The amount of laundry detergent added can be determined according to the type and brand of laundry detergent set by the user in the washing machine or the intelligent terminal, and the corresponding relationship between the type and brand of laundry detergent and turbidity. The mapping relationship between turbidity and laundry detergent can be obtained by experimenting with different types and brands of laundry detergent. When the type and brand of laundry detergent set by the user are not included in the database of the washing machine, the washing machine can send a request to the control end of the washing machine through the network to obtain the mapping relationship between laundry detergent and turbidity.

[0048] In one implementation of an embodiment of the present invention, optionally, adding laundry detergent according to turbidity includes: determining an amount of laundry detergent to be added corresponding to the turbidity, and adding the added amount of laundry detergent; wherein, the higher the turbidity, the greater the amount of laundry detergent to be added.

[0049] Among them, determining the amount of laundry detergent to be added corresponding to the turbidity may be to first determine the type and brand of the laundry detergent, and then determine the amount of laundry detergent to be added based on the mapping relationship between the type and brand of the laundry detergent and the turbidity. The higher the turbidity, the greater the amount of laundry detergent to be added. However, for the same turbidity, the amount of laundry detergent to be added may be different. The process of adding laundry detergent may be a process automatically performed by the washing machine, or may be a process of determining the amount of laundry detergent to be added and prompting the user to add it.

[0050] After adding laundry detergent according to the turbidity, the laundry can be washed. Specifically, the water consumption, washing intensity and execution time of the washing program can be determined according to the total weight of the laundry. The washing program is performed according to the determined water consumption, washing intensity and execution time to wash the laundry clean. After the washing program, a dehydration and drying program, one or more rinsing programs can be performed, and a dehydration and drying program can be performed after each rinsing program. It can ensure that the laundry is washed clean, and when the washing machine enters the rinsing program, the laundry can also be washed clean. At the same time, determining the amount of laundry detergent added according to the turbidity can avoid the waste of laundry detergent and save resources.

[0051] In one implementation of an embodiment of the present invention, optionally, executing a washing program to process clothes includes: re-determining the execution time and water consumption of the washing program according to the turbidity and the weight of clothes added during the process; and executing the washing program to wash clothes according to the execution time and water consumption of the washing program.

[0052] Among them, the heavier the weight of the clothes added midway, the more water the washing program consumes. The greater the turbidity, the longer the execution time of the washing program. According to the above positive correlation, the relationship between turbidity, the weight of clothes added midway and the execution time of the washing program, as well as the relationship between turbidity, the weight of clothes added midway and the water consumption of the washing program can be established. Specifically, the turbidity level of turbidity can be divided into slight turbidity, moderate turbidity and severe turbidity. The weight of clothes added midway can also be divided into different weight levels, for example, it can be divided into less than 0.5 kg, greater than or equal to 0.5 kg and less than 1 kg, greater than or equal to 1 kg and less than 2 kg, and greater than or equal to 2 kg, etc. The execution time and water consumption of the washing program can be determined according to different turbidity levels and weight levels.

[0053] For example, when the turbidity is slightly dirty and the weight of the clothes added midway is less than 0.5 kg, the execution time and water consumption of the washing program before the clothes are added midway can be used to wash the clothes after the clothes are added midway.

[0054] As another example, when the turbidity is slightly dirty and the weight of the clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 0.5 kg, a certain amount of water intake can be added as the re-determined water intake based on the water consumption when the washing machine performs the washing program before the clothes are added midway, and the time required for the water intake can be added as the re-determined execution time based on the execution time of the washing program before the clothes are added midway, so as to wash the clothes after the clothes are added midway.

[0055] As another example, when the turbidity is moderately dirty and the weight of the clothes added midway is less than 0.5 kg, the water consumption of the washing machine during the washing program before the clothes are added midway can be used. A certain amount of time can be added to the execution time of the washing program before the clothes are added midway as the re-determined execution time to wash the clothes after the clothes are added midway.

[0056] The technical solution of this embodiment is to obtain the current clothing processing program of the washing machine when it is detected that clothes are added midway; if the current clothing processing program is a rinsing program, execute the pre-wash program; detect the turbidity of water in the washing machine barrel; add clothing detergent according to the turbidity, and execute the washing program to process the clothes, which solves the problem that clothes cannot be added midway or clothes are not washed cleanly when the washing machine executes the rinsing program, and realizes that clothes can be added midway when the clothing processing program is the rinsing program, and it can be ensured that the clothes are washed cleanly when clothes are added midway, and the amount of clothing detergent added can be accurately determined, thereby saving resources and improving the user experience.

[0057] Embodiment 2

[0058] Figure 2 1 is a flow chart of a washing machine control method provided by Embodiment 2 of the present invention. This embodiment is a further refinement of the above technical solution. The technical solution in this embodiment can be combined with various optional solutions in one or more of the above embodiments. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0059] Step 210: When it is detected that clothes are added to the washing machine, the current clothes processing program of the washing machine is obtained.

[0060] Step 220: If the current washing program is a washing program, obtain the remaining execution time of the washing program, and determine whether the remaining execution time is greater than or equal to the washing time required for adding clothes in the middle; if so, execute step 230; if not, execute step 240.

[0061] Among them, the remaining execution time refers to how much time is left in the current washing program of the washing machine to enter the dehydration and drying program after the washing program. When the washing machine performs a clothing processing program, the corresponding duration can be determined for each link in the clothing processing program, for example, the washing program is 30 minutes, the dehydration and drying program is 2 minutes, the rinsing program is 15 minutes, and the dehydration and drying program is 2 minutes. The remaining execution time of the washing program can be determined based on the current running time of the washing machine. For example, if the washing machine runs for 10 minutes, it can be determined that the remaining execution time of the washing program is 30-10=20 minutes.

[0062] The washing time required for adding clothes midway refers to the time required to clean the clothes added midway and the clothes before adding clothes midway in the washing machine. The washing time required for adding clothes midway can be determined in a variety of ways. For example, the weight of the clothes added midway can be obtained, and the washing time required for adding clothes midway can be determined based on the mapping relationship between the preset weight of the clothes added midway and the washing time required for adding clothes midway. Exemplarily, when the weight of the clothes added midway is 0.5 kg, the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 15 minutes; when the weight of the clothes is 1 kg, the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 20 minutes. For another example, the washing time required for adding clothes midway can be determined by the weight of the clothes added midway and the turbidity.

[0063] In order to accurately determine the washing time required for adding clothes midway and ensure that the clothes added midway can be washed clean, in one implementation of the present invention, optionally, it is determined whether the remaining execution time is greater than or equal to the washing time required for adding clothes midway, including: obtaining the weight of the clothes added midway; executing a pre-wash program and detecting the turbidity of water in the washing machine barrel; determining the washing time required for adding clothes midway according to the turbidity and the weight of the clothes added midway, and determining whether the remaining execution time is greater than or equal to the washing time required for adding clothes midway.

[0064] Among them, the method for obtaining the weight of clothes added midway can be any of the methods for obtaining the weight of clothes added midway in the above embodiments. The pre-wash program can also be the same or similar to the pre-wash program in the above embodiments. In one implementation of the embodiment of the present invention, optionally, executing the pre-wash program includes: determining the pre-wash time according to the weight of clothes added midway, and processing the pre-wash time for the clothes after refilling the washing machine with water. The turbidity can be determined by a turbidity meter, a turbidity detector or a turbidity sensor. The turbidity detection can be performed after the pre-wash is completed.

[0065] In order to accurately determine the washing time required for adding clothes during the journey and ensure that the clothes added during the journey can be washed cleanly, the washing time required for adding clothes during the journey can be determined based on the turbidity and the weight of the clothes added during the journey. The greater the turbidity, the longer the washing time required for adding clothes during the journey; the greater the weight of the clothes added during the journey, the longer the washing time required for adding clothes during the journey. The turbidity and the weight of the clothes added during the journey can be mapped to the washing time required for adding clothes during the journey.

[0066] For example, when the turbidity is slightly turbid, when the weight of clothes added midway is less than 0.5 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 12 minutes; for another example, when the turbidity is slightly turbid, when the weight of clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 0.5 kg and less than 1 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 15 minutes; for another example, when the turbidity is slightly turbid, when the weight of clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 1 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 20 minutes.

[0067] As another example, when the turbidity is moderate turbidity, when the weight of clothes added midway is less than 0.5 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 18 minutes; for another example, when the turbidity is moderate turbidity, when the weight of clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 0.5 kg and less than 1 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 22 minutes; for another example, when the turbidity is moderate turbidity, when the weight of clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 1 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 26 minutes.

[0068] As another example, when the turbidity is severe, when the weight of clothes added midway is less than 0.5 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 22 minutes; for another example, when the turbidity is severe, when the weight of clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 0.5 kg and less than 1 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 25 minutes; for another example, when the turbidity is severe, when the weight of clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 1 kg, it can be determined that the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 30 minutes.

[0069] Step 230: Continue to execute the current washing program.

[0070] If the remaining execution time is greater than or equal to the washing time required for adding clothes during the process, the clothes added during the process can be washed clean under the current washing process. The current washing process can be continued, and after the washing process, a dehydration and spin-drying process can be performed, one or more rinsing processes can be performed, and after the rinsing process, a dehydration and spin-drying process can be performed to complete the laundry processing and ensure that the clothes can be washed and rinsed clean.

[0071] It should be noted that continuing the current washing program may be to wash clothes according to the remaining execution time and washing intensity of the current washing program. The amount of water and laundry detergent in the washing program may be adjusted. For example, laundry detergent may be added according to turbidity, and the amount of water may be determined according to the weight of clothes added during the process to continue the current washing program.

[0072] For example, when the turbidity is mild turbidity, the amount of a certain laundry detergent added may be 15 ml. When the weight of clothes added midway is less than 0.5 kg, the amount of water used may remain unchanged. For another example, when the turbidity is moderate turbidity, the amount of a certain laundry detergent added may be 20 ml. When the turbidity is severe turbidity, the amount of a certain laundry detergent added may be 25 ml. For a pulsator washing machine, when the weight of clothes added midway is greater than or equal to 0.5 kg, the quotient of the weight of clothes added midway to 0.5 may be determined, and the amount of water used may be increased by 3 times the quotient. For example, if the weight of clothes added midway is 1.2 kg and the quotient is 2, the amount of water used may be increased by 6 liters.

[0073] Step 240: Re-determine the execution time and / or washing intensity of the washing program, and continue to execute the washing program according to the execution time and / or washing intensity.

[0074] Among them, if the remaining execution time is less than the washing time required for adding clothes midway, then under the current washing program, the clothes added midway may not be washed clean. The execution time and / or washing intensity of the washing program can be re-determined. For example, the washing time required for adding clothes midway is used as the execution time for re-determining the washing program, and the washing intensity of the current washing program is used as the washing intensity for re-determining the washing program; or, the remaining execution time is used as the execution time for re-determining the washing program, and the washing intensity of the washing program is re-determined based on the washing time required for adding clothes midway and the remaining execution time. For example, the washing intensity can be determined based on the ratio of the washing time required for adding clothes midway to the remaining execution time. Exemplarily, when the ratio is greater than 1 and less than or equal to 1.5, the washing intensity can be increased by one level; when the ratio is greater than 1.5 and less than or equal to 2.5, the washing intensity can be increased by two levels; when the ratio is greater than 2.5, the washing intensity can be adjusted and the execution time can be adjusted, such as increasing the washing intensity by two levels, and adding a certain duration based on the remaining execution time.

[0075] It should be noted that when the washing program is continued according to the execution time and / or washing intensity, the amount of water and the laundry detergent may also be adjusted. The laundry detergent may also be added according to the turbidity, and the amount of water intake may be determined according to the weight of the clothes added during the process, which will not be described in detail here.

[0076] Step 250: determine the execution time and water consumption of the rinsing program, and execute the rinsing program to treat the clothes according to the execution time and water consumption of the rinsing program.

[0077] Among them, after the washing program, a dehydration and spin-drying program can be performed, and a rinsing program can be performed. When performing the rinsing program, it is necessary to determine the execution time and water consumption of the rinsing program. The execution time of the rinsing program can be determined based on the washing time required for adding clothes midway, such as the washing time required for adding clothes midway is 22 minutes, and the execution time of the rinsing program can be 11 minutes; or, the execution time of the rinsing program can be determined based on the turbidity and the total weight of the clothes in the washing machine, such as the turbidity is light turbidity, and the total weight of the clothes is 3 kilograms, it can be determined that the execution time of the rinsing program is 8 minutes; or, the execution time of the rinsing program can be a fixed value, such as 10 minutes. The water consumption of the rinsing program can be the same or similar to that of the washing program. The rinsing program can be a washing operation of the clothes according to the determined execution time and water consumption of the rinsing program.

[0078] Step 260 , determine whether the turbidity of the water in the current barrel is greater than a preset turbidity value; if so, execute step 270 ; if not, execute step 280 .

[0079] Among them, turbidity includes not only light turbidity, moderate turbidity and severe turbidity, but also slight turbidity. Slight turbidity can be cleaner than light turbidity. The preset turbidity value can be the critical value between slight turbidity and light turbidity. For example, slight turbidity means that the turbidity is less than 0.15, light turbidity means that the turbidity is greater than or equal to 0.15 and less than 0.25; moderate turbidity means that the turbidity is greater than or equal to 0.25 and less than 0.5; severe turbidity means that the turbidity is greater than or equal to 0.5. The preset turbidity value can be 0.15. The turbidity of the water in the washing machine drum can be detected after the rinsing program to determine whether the turbidity is greater than 0.15.

[0080] Step 270 , execute the rinsing procedure and return to step 260 .

[0081] Among them, if the turbidity is greater than the preset turbidity value after executing the rinsing program, it means that the current clothes are not clean, and the rinsing program can continue. The execution time of the water consumption when performing the rinsing program again can be consistent with the user volume and execution time when the rinsing program is performed for the first time, or it can be adjusted. For example, when the turbidity is light turbidity, the execution time can be shortened by one-fifth, and the water consumption can be reduced by one-tenth. For another example, when the turbidity is moderate turbidity, the execution time and water consumption can be kept unchanged. For another example, when the turbidity is heavy turbidity, the execution time can be increased by one-fifth, and the water consumption can be increased by one-tenth. The execution time and water consumption of each rinsing program can be dynamically adjusted according to the turbidity to ensure that the clothes are washed clean and save resources.

[0082] The rinsing procedure may be performed once or multiple times, and the specific number of times may be determined according to the turbidity.
