Those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or replacements to related technical features without departing from the principles of the present application, and the technical solutions after the changes or replacements will fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0053] In the prior art, in student dormitories, company dormitories and other places where many people live together, each washing machine may need to be used by multiple users. When a user washes clothes through the washing machine, the user can generally pay through a small program or a preset APP (Application, application program), and after the payment is completed, the corresponding washing time will be popped up, and the user can take out the washed clothes in time according to the washing time so as to be used by other users. However, when the user switches the small program or the preset APP to the background, the user cannot directly obtain the remaining washing time, thereby causing the user to be unable to accurately understand the washing progress of the clothes, and affecting the timeliness of the user taking the clothes.

[0054] Based on the above problems, the present application determines the remaining washing time in real time through a block chain, and then displays it on a terminal device when a preset condition is reached, thereby achieving the technical effects that the user can accurately understand the washing progress of the clothes, and the timeliness of the user taking the clothes is improved.

[0055] Figure 1 The architecture schematic diagram of the application system provided for the embodiments of the present application is as follows: Figure 1As shown, the washing machine comprises a washing machine body 101, a blockchain module 102 and a terminal device 103 disposed on the washing machine body 101, the washing machine body 101 is configured to receive washing parameter information and determine an initial washing time according to the washing parameter information, the blockchain module 102 is configured to upload the initial washing time to a blockchain, and determine a remaining washing time in real time according to the initial washing time, and when the remaining washing time is not greater than a preset time threshold, send a remaining time prompt to the terminal device 103 through the blockchain module.

[0056] The technical solutions of the present application will be described in detail below with specific examples. The following specific examples can be combined with each other, and some examples may not be described in detail for the same or similar concepts or processes.

[0057] Figure 2 The flowchart of the washing reminder method provided in the embodiment of the present application can be executed by the washing machine body 101, specifically, by the processor disposed on the washing machine body 101. As shown in the figure, Figure 2 The method of the present embodiment can include:

[0058] S201: receiving washing parameter information and determining an initial washing time according to the washing parameter information.

[0059] In this embodiment, before the user washes clothes through the washing machine, the washing parameter information can be set first, and correspondingly, the washing machine can receive the washing parameter information, and then determine the initial washing time according to the washing parameter information.

[0060] Further, the washing parameter information can include a washing mode, and the initial washing time can be determined according to the washing parameter information, which can specifically include:

[0061] According to the pre-stored time length and washing mode corresponding table, the initial washing time corresponding to the washing mode is obtained.

[0062] Specifically, there can be many washing modes, and different washing modes can correspond to different washing times. For example, the washing mode can include fast washing mode, regular mode, and large item mode, etc., the washing time corresponding to the fast washing mode can be 25 minutes, the washing time corresponding to the regular mode can be 45 minutes, and the washing time corresponding to the large item mode can be 50 minutes. After determining the washing mode, the initial washing time corresponding to the washing mode can be obtained.

[0063] S202: uploading the initial washing time to the blockchain through the deployed blockchain module, and starting the corresponding washing machine to wash clothes according to the initial washing time.

[0064] In the embodiment, the blockchain module is arranged on the upper part of the washing machine. Through the blockchain module, data can be uploaded to the blockchain, and data can also be obtained from the blockchain.

[0065] Further, the blockchain module can be a module of blockchain + Internet of Things technology, that is, a No. 1 physical chain, which can ensure the authenticity, accuracy and security of data collection and transmission between devices. Specifically, the No. 1 physical chain module can be directly implanted in the washing machine to ensure the authenticity and accuracy of the data through source credible data collection. Secondly, by means of the blockchain technology, the washing machine can upload and encrypt the data such as the selected washing time of the user and the position of the washing machine in real time, so as to ensure the authenticity and security of the transmission and storage. Thirdly, the blockchain technology has the functions of information traceability and data tamper resistance, so that each user can accurately understand the specific data of all washing machines in real time. For example, the remaining washing time of the washing machine on each floor can be accurately understood in real time.

[0066] In addition, after the initial washing time is uploaded to the blockchain, the corresponding washing machine can be started to wash clothes according to the initial washing time. Further, there can be multiple initial washing times in the blockchain, and each initial washing time can carry a washing machine identifier, and the corresponding washing machine can be started according to the washing machine identifier.

[0067] S203: Real-time determination of the remaining washing time based on the initial washing time, and when the remaining washing time is not greater than a preset time threshold, sending a first remaining time prompt to the terminal device through the blockchain module, so that the terminal device displays the remaining time in real time according to the first remaining time prompt.

[0068] In the embodiment, after the initial washing time is determined, the remaining washing time can be determined in real time according to the initial washing time, and a remaining washing time can also be determined every preset time interval. For example, the preset time interval can be any value within 0-2 minutes.

[0069] Further, the remaining washing time is determined in real time based on the initial washing time, and when the remaining washing time is not greater than a preset time threshold, a first remaining time prompt is sent to the terminal device through the blockchain module, so that the terminal device displays the remaining time in real time according to the first remaining time prompt.

[0070] The remaining washing time is determined in real time based on the initial washing time, and the remaining washing time is uploaded to the blockchain in real time through the blockchain module. When the remaining washing time is not greater than a preset time threshold, a first remaining time prompt is sent to the terminal device through the blockchain module, so that the terminal device displays the remaining time in real time according to the first remaining time prompt.

[0071] In order to ensure the authenticity of the data stored on the blockchain, the remaining washing time determined in real time based on the initial washing time can be uploaded to the blockchain in real time through the blockchain module, and the remaining washing time is judged. When the remaining washing time is not greater than the preset time threshold, the first remaining time prompt is sent to the terminal device through the blockchain module, and the first remaining time prompt can be displayed on the terminal device in real time, reminding the user to collect the clothes in time. For example, the time threshold can be any value within 5-10 minutes.

[0072] Figure 3 The application schematic diagram of the remaining time prompt provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown in Figure 3 In this embodiment, the remaining time threshold is 5 minutes, and when the remaining time is less than or equal to 5 minutes, the terminal device can display a prompt that the remaining time is XX:XX. For example, in this embodiment, when the remaining time is 4 minutes and 29 seconds, the terminal device can display a prompt that the remaining time is 04:29.

[0073] After the above scheme is adopted, after receiving the washing parameter information, the initial washing time is determined according to the washing parameter information, and then the initial washing time is uploaded to the blockchain through the deployed blockchain module, and the corresponding washing machine is started according to the initial washing time to wash the clothes. The remaining washing time can also be determined in real time according to the initial washing time, and when the remaining washing time is not greater than the preset time threshold, the first remaining time prompt is sent to the terminal device through the blockchain module, so that the terminal device displays the remaining time in real time according to the first remaining time prompt. Through the blockchain module, data uploading and acquisition are realized, and through the way of displaying the remaining time on the terminal device in real time, the user can accurately understand the washing progress of the clothes, and the timeliness of the user collecting the clothes is improved.

[0074] Based on the method Figure 2 of the present application, some specific embodiments of the method are provided, which will be described below.

[0075] In another embodiment, after S203, it can also include:

[0076] The first distance determined by the positioning device and the terminal device is obtained, and the first distance is uploaded to the blockchain through the blockchain module.

[0077] If the first distance is not greater than the preset distance threshold, the pre-stored media information is obtained from the blockchain through the blockchain module, and the corresponding action is performed according to the media information.

[0078] If the first distance is greater than the distance threshold, a second remaining duration prompt is sent to the terminal device, wherein the first remaining duration prompt and the second remaining duration prompt are of different prompt types.

[0079] In this embodiment, after the first remaining duration prompt is sent, in order to further improve the timeliness of the user collecting the clothes, the first distance of the terminal device corresponding to the user, i.e., the distance between the user and the washing machine, can be determined by the positioning device deployed on the washing machine body, and then the first distance is uploaded to the blockchain through the blockchain module. After the distance between the user and the washing machine is determined, it can be determined whether the user is within the preset range of the washing machine according to the distance.

[0080] Further, the distance threshold can be used to determine whether the user is within the preset range of the washing machine, wherein the distance threshold can be any value within 0-2 meters.

[0081] In addition, if the first distance is less than or equal to the preset distance threshold, it indicates that the user may be waiting to collect the clothes near the washing machine, and in order to further attract the user, relevant media information can be executed to attract the user. The media information can be pre-stored in the blockchain or obtained in real time. Specifically, the media information can be a small game, audio or video, etc.

[0082] If the first distance is less than the preset distance threshold, it indicates that the user is not waiting to collect the clothes near the washing machine, and in order to timely remind the user to collect the clothes, a second remaining duration prompt can be sent to the terminal device. The second remaining duration prompt can be of the same type as the first remaining duration prompt, or of a different type from the first remaining duration prompt. In order to improve the success rate of the duration prompt, the second remaining duration prompt can be of a different type from the first remaining duration prompt. For example, the type of the first remaining duration prompt can be a text prompt type, and the type of the second remaining duration prompt can be a voice prompt type.

[0083] For example, if the media information is a small game, a user reminder function can be set on the washing machine with a blockchain module. The system actively reminds the user who is washing 5 minutes in advance. After the user clicks to go and wait, the system pops up a treasure hunt game that requires the user to reach the washing machine. When the user reaches the washing machine being washed, the system determines whether the user has arrived by reading the user's location information. If so, the system unlocks the game interface. The user can open the camera to play AR treasure hunt, align the washing machine by rotating the phone, and open the virtual treasure chest. When the bomb enters the treasure chest, the accumulated gold coins in the treasure chest will be emptied. When the user obtains a certain amount of gold coins, they can exchange coupons, vouchers, and other gifts through the background. By setting the early warning function, the user can reach the designated washing machine within 5 minutes after the clothes are washed. After the user clicks the corresponding operation, they can complete the corresponding game to obtain rewards, thereby motivating users to reach the washing machine in advance. After the clothes are washed, the user can take out the clothes in time, so that the next user can obtain an idle or soon-to-be idle washing machine through the terminal device, solving the problem of users being unable to actively obtain washing time, affecting the timeliness of clothes removal, and further affecting the washing process of other users.

[0084] Figure 4 The flowchart of the laundry reminder method provided for another embodiment of the present application. The method of this embodiment can be executed by a terminal device. As shown in Figure 4 The method of this embodiment can include:

[0085] S401: receiving a first remaining time prompt sent by a washing machine, wherein the first remaining time prompt is determined by the washing machine when the remaining washing time determined according to the initial washing time is not greater than a preset time threshold.

[0086] In this embodiment, when the washing machine determines that the remaining washing time is not greater than the preset time threshold, the terminal device can be sent a first remaining time prompt. Further, the remaining washing time determined by the washing machine can be obtained in real time from the blockchain by the blockchain module deployed on the washing machine.

[0087] S402: displaying the remaining time in real time according to the first remaining time prompt.

[0088] In this embodiment, after the terminal device receives the first remaining time prompt, the remaining time can be displayed in real time according to the first remaining time prompt. The remaining time can be displayed according to a preset style, or the remaining time can be displayed according to a custom configuration style according to the actual scene.

[0089] In addition, in another embodiment, a plurality of washing machines are provided, each of the washing machines carries a washing machine identifier, and before receiving the first remaining time prompt sent by the washing machine, the method further comprises:

[0090] Based on the washing machine identifier, the number of reservations of the corresponding washing machine is obtained.

[0091] Based on the number of reservations of each washing machine, the remaining washing time of each washing machine is determined.

[0092] Based on the remaining washing time of each washing machine, a target washing machine is determined.

[0093] In this embodiment, since each washing machine may need to be used by multiple users in a public place, before a user washes clothes through a washing machine, the number of reservations of the corresponding washing machine is determined based on the washing machine identifier, and then the remaining washing time of the washing machine corresponding to the number of reservations is determined. For example, the washing time of each reservation is 45 minutes, if washing machine A has 3 reservations, the remaining washing time is 135 minutes, that is, if a user reserves washing machine A, the user needs to wait for 135 minutes. In order to improve the efficiency of washing clothes as much as possible and reduce the reservation time of the user, the remaining washing time of each washing machine is determined, and then the washing machine with the shortest remaining washing time is selected as the target washing machine.

[0094] In addition, after the washing machine with the shortest washing time is determined, the user can be actively reminded, and after the user's affirmative reply is obtained, the washing machine is determined as the target washing machine.

[0095] In addition, the washing machine with the least number of reservations can also be determined as the target washing machine, or a target washing machine can be determined by comprehensively considering the number of reservations and the washing mode selected by each reservation user.

[0096] In addition, in determining the target washing machine, the floor can also be considered, which reduces the activity range of the user and improves the efficiency of the user to collect clothes.
