Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of smart home technology, specifically relating to a high temperature warning method and a washing device. Background Technology

[0002] With social progress and technological development, the popularity of washing equipment (such as washing machines) is increasing. During operation, when the washing machine is in heating or drying mode, the temperature inside the drum is high, causing the outer surface of the machine to become excessively hot. Users may not be aware of this high temperature, and touching the outer surface, such as the door, can cause burns.

[0003] Currently, to prevent users from getting scalded, a screen has been added to the door of the washing equipment to isolate it from the potential high temperatures.

[0004] However, the heat insulation effect of the window screen is generally poor. When the temperature inside the washing machine drum is too high, the temperature of the outer surface of the washing machine will still be high. When users touch it, they will still be burned, resulting in a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0063] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0064] The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” “fourth,” etc. (if present) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of the invention described herein can be implemented, for example, in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having,” and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.

[0065] In existing technology, during the operation of washing equipment, when in heating or drying mode, the temperature inside the drum is high, causing the outer surface of the entire machine, i.e., the outer casing, to become excessively hot. Users may not be aware of this high surface temperature, and touching the door or cabinet can cause burns. To prevent burns, a heat shield is added to the door to insulate against the potential high temperatures. However, the insulation effect of the heat shield is generally limited. When the temperature inside the drum is too high, the outer surface of the washing equipment remains hot, and users can still be burned upon contact, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0066] Therefore, to address the aforementioned problems, the present invention, when determining whether the washing equipment is in drying or heating mode, selects a suitable high-temperature warning mode based on the user's situation. Specifically, when the user is determined to be non-colorblind, a color-coded warning mode is used; when the user is determined to be colorblind, a voice-based warning mode is used. This effectively provides high-temperature warnings, prevents users from touching the machine, and thus effectively prevents burns, improving user satisfaction and enhancing the user experience.

[0067] The preferred technical solutions of the high-temperature warning method and washing equipment of the present invention are described below with reference to the above-mentioned accompanying drawings.

[0068] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a scenario for the high temperature alert method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, when the washing equipment 101 is in the target operating mode, i.e. the heating mode or the drying mode, it indicates that a high temperature warning is required. Then, depending on the user situation of the washing equipment, the light-emitting device 10 or the voice playback device 20 is controlled to issue a high temperature warning.

[0069] Optionally, the washing device 102 is any device used for washing clothes, such as a washing machine. The washing machine may include a front-loading washing machine or other intelligent washing machines that generate high temperatures on their outer surface.

[0070] Figure 2 Flowchart of the high temperature alert method provided in the embodiments of the present invention Figure 1 The execution entity in this embodiment can be Figure 1 The washing equipment in the context, specifically, can be a processor within the washing equipment; however, this embodiment does not impose any particular limitation. For example... Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0071] S201. When it is determined that the washing equipment is in the target operating mode, obtain the user information corresponding to the washing equipment, wherein the target operating mode includes heating mode and / or drying mode.

[0072] In this embodiment, during the operation of the washing equipment, the working status of the washing equipment, i.e. the operating mode, is obtained, and it is determined whether the operating mode is the target operating mode. When the operating mode is determined to be the target operating mode, it indicates that the temperature of the outer surface of the washing equipment may be too high, and a high temperature warning is required to prevent users from touching the washing equipment and getting burned because they are unaware that the washing equipment is hot. Then, the user information corresponding to the washing equipment is obtained, and the user information is used to issue a high temperature warning to avoid burns to the user.

[0073] The target operating mode is one that causes the temperature of the inner drum of the washing machine to be high, resulting in an excessively high temperature on the outer surface of the washing machine. In other words, when the washing machine is in the target operating mode, the temperature of the inner drum is high, leading to an excessively high temperature on the outer surface of the entire machine. The target operating mode includes heating mode and / or drying mode.

[0074] Optionally, the heating mode is a heated washing mode (i.e., washing clothes with hot water) or a high-temperature disinfection mode, or other modes that require heating, which would result in the inner drum temperature being too high.

[0075] The user information corresponding to the washing equipment can be the information of the user who is pre-bound to the washing equipment, or the user information that has been pre-entered.

[0076] Optionally, the user information includes a user identifier that indicates the type of user, i.e., whether the user is colorblind can be determined through the user identifier.

[0077] S202. Determine the high temperature warning mode based on user information, and issue a high temperature warning according to the high temperature warning mode.

[0078] In this embodiment, after obtaining the user information corresponding to the washing device, that is, after determining the user information of the user who can use the washing device, the user information is used to determine a high temperature warning mode suitable for the user, that is, to determine a mode that can effectively remind the user that the washing device is in a high temperature state. Then, a high temperature warning is given based on the high temperature warning mode to remind the user that the washing device is in a high temperature state and to prevent the user from touching the washing device, that is, touching the door or cabinet of the washing device, thereby effectively avoiding burns to the user.

[0079] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the washing equipment is in the target operating mode, a high temperature warning mode matching the user is determined based on the user information of the user corresponding to the washing equipment. That is, a mode that can successfully warn the user that the temperature of the washing equipment is high is determined, and then a high temperature warning is given according to the high temperature warning mode to warn the user that the temperature of the washing equipment is high, thereby improving the success rate of high temperature warning and effectively preventing the user from being scalded.

[0080] As described above, when the washing equipment is determined to be in the target operating mode, i.e., heating mode or drying mode, it indicates that the outer surface temperature of the washing equipment may be high, requiring a high-temperature warning. Therefore, a suitable high-temperature warning mode is determined based on the user's information, and the warning is issued accordingly. This informs the user that the washing equipment is too hot and warns against touching it to avoid burns. Furthermore, the high-temperature warning is issued using a user-appropriate mode, increasing the success rate of the warning and effectively preventing burns, thereby improving user satisfaction and enhancing the user experience.

[0081] Figure 3 Flowchart of the high temperature alert method provided in the embodiments of the present invention Figure 2 In this embodiment Figure 2 Based on the previous embodiment, when determining the appropriate high-temperature warning mode for a user corresponding to the washing equipment, it can be determined based on the user's user identifier. The process of determining the high-temperature warning mode based on the user identifier will be described below with reference to a specific embodiment. Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:

[0082] S301. When it is determined that the washing equipment is in the target operating mode, the user information corresponding to the washing equipment is obtained, wherein the target operating mode includes heating mode and / or drying mode, and the user information includes user identifier.

[0083] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the washing equipment is in the target operating mode, the presence of a human body within a preset area is detected. If a human body is present within the preset area, the user information corresponding to the washing equipment is obtained. If no human body is present within the preset area, the user information corresponding to the washing equipment is not obtained.

[0084] In this embodiment, to avoid issuing unnecessary prompts, when it is determined that the washing equipment is in the target operating mode, i.e., when a high-temperature warning is required, it is determined whether there is a human body in a preset area, i.e., whether there is a person around the washing equipment. If it is determined that there is a human body in the preset area, i.e., when there is someone around the washing equipment, it indicates that a high-temperature warning is necessary. In this case, the user information corresponding to the washing equipment is obtained and used to issue the high-temperature warning. If it is determined that there is no human body in the preset area, i.e., when there is no one around the washing equipment, it indicates that a high-temperature warning is unnecessary. In this case, the user information corresponding to the washing equipment is not obtained, i.e., no high-temperature warning is issued, and the detection of whether there is a human body around the washing equipment continues.

[0085] Optionally, when determining whether a human body exists within a preset area, a relevant sensor (e.g., a human body sensor) can be used to detect whether a human body exists within the preset area. This preset area is the detection range of the sensor.

[0086] In any embodiment, optionally, when it is determined that the washing device is in heating mode, the temperature of the washing device is acquired. If the temperature is higher than a preset temperature, the user information corresponding to the washing device is acquired.

[0087] In this embodiment, when the washing device is in heating mode, the temperature of the washing device gradually increases. In order to avoid unnecessary prompts and to avoid prolonged high temperature prompts, a high temperature prompt is only issued when the temperature of the washing device is determined to be higher than the preset temperature, indicating that the outer surface temperature of the washing device may be high. That is, the user information corresponding to the washing device is only obtained at this time.

[0088] The temperature of the washing equipment can be either the inner drum temperature or the outer surface temperature. This temperature can be detected by a temperature sensor. For example, when the temperature of the washing equipment is the inner drum temperature, the inner drum temperature is acquired in real time or periodically by a temperature sensor installed on the inner drum. The position of the temperature sensor on the inner drum can be set according to actual conditions, as long as it can collect the temperature inside the drum. Alternatively, when the temperature of the washing equipment is the outer surface temperature, the temperature is acquired in real time or periodically by a temperature sensor installed on the outer surface of the washing equipment. The position of the temperature sensor on the outer surface of the washing equipment can be set according to actual conditions, for example, it can be installed on the door or cabinet.

[0089] Alternatively, when the washing equipment is in drying mode, the user information corresponding to the washing equipment can be directly obtained for high temperature warnings.

[0090] S302. If the user identifier is a non-colorblind user identifier, then the high temperature prompt mode is determined to be the color high temperature prompt mode.

[0091] In this embodiment, after obtaining the user identifier corresponding to the washing device, the high-temperature warning method is determined based on the user identifier, that is, a mode that can effectively remind the user that the washing device is in a high-temperature state is determined. Then, the type of the user identifier is determined, that is, whether the user identifier is a non-colorblind user identifier. When the user identifier is determined to be a non-colorblind user identifier, it indicates that color can be used to provide high-temperature warnings. In order to avoid affecting other people due to voice, the high-temperature warning mode is determined to be a color high-temperature warning mode, so that the high-temperature warning can be provided using the color high-temperature warning mode. For example, the non-colorblind user identifier is 0. When the user identifier is also 0, it indicates that the user identifier is a non-colorblind user identifier.

[0092] Alternatively, when the user identifier is determined to be a non-colorblind user identifier, a voice high-temperature prompt mode can also be used to clearly inform the user that the washing equipment is in a high-temperature state and that touching it is prohibited, thereby preventing burns.

[0093] S303. Provide high temperature warnings based on color-coded high temperature warning modes.

[0094] In this embodiment, after determining that the high temperature warning mode is a color-based high temperature warning mode, a high temperature warning is issued based on this color-based high temperature warning mode.

[0095] In this embodiment, optionally, one implementation of S303 is as follows: The temperature of the washing device is acquired, and a target temperature range to which the temperature belongs is determined. The light-emitting device is then controlled to display a preset color corresponding to the target temperature range.

[0096] In this embodiment, when providing a high-temperature warning based on the color-based high-temperature warning mode, the warning can be given according to the default color. That is, the current temperature of the washing equipment is obtained, and the preset temperature range to which the current temperature of the washing equipment falls is obtained from the preset temperature range. The preset temperature range to which the temperature belongs is taken as the target temperature range, and then the light-emitting device is controlled to display the preset color corresponding to the target temperature range, so as to realize the high-temperature warning through color.

[0097] Taking a specific application scenario as an example, when the temperature of the washing equipment is 50℃, the preset color corresponding to the preset temperature range of 50℃ is white, so the control light-emitting device displays white. When the temperature of the washing equipment is 90℃, the preset color corresponding to the preset temperature range of 90℃ is blue, so the control light-emitting device displays blue.

[0098] In this embodiment, optionally, one implementation of S303 is as follows: The temperature of the washing device is acquired, and a target temperature range to which the temperature belongs is determined. Based on the user identifier, a custom color corresponding to the target temperature range is acquired, and the light-emitting device is controlled to display the custom color.

[0099] In this embodiment, when providing high-temperature alerts based on a color-based high-temperature alert mode, to meet the user's personalized needs, the alert can be provided according to a user-defined color. This involves obtaining the current temperature of the washing machine, identifying the preset temperature range to which the current temperature falls, using this preset temperature range as the target temperature range, and then obtaining the custom color corresponding to the target temperature range. The light-emitting device is then controlled to display the preset color corresponding to the target temperature range, thereby achieving high-temperature alerts through color and meeting the user's personalized needs.

[0100] Taking a specific application scenario as an example, when the washing machine's temperature is 50℃, the custom color corresponding to the preset temperature range of 50℃ is yellow, so the control light-emitting device displays yellow. When the washing machine's temperature is 90℃, the custom color corresponding to the preset temperature range of 90℃ is red, so the control light-emitting device displays red.

[0101] Alternatively, the temperature range can also be customized. When displaying a user-defined color, the system retrieves the current temperature of the washing machine and identifies the custom temperature range to which the current temperature falls. This custom temperature range is then used as the target temperature range, and the corresponding custom color is retrieved.

[0102] In this embodiment, optionally, the light-emitting device includes one or more combinations of the following: a power button for the washing machine, a knob for the washing machine, a display panel for the washing machine, and an inner drum light for the washing machine. The inner drum light can be an indicator light, which is disposed on the inner drum of the washing machine (e.g., ...). Figure 4 As shown, its position on the inner cylinder can be determined according to the actual situation, as long as the user can see the inner cylinder light. For example, the inner cylinder light is located in the upper middle part of the inner cylinder.

[0103] Specifically, when controlling the light-emitting device to display the corresponding color, such as Figure 5 As shown, when the light-emitting device includes a display panel 11, the background color of the display panel 11 is controlled to be the corresponding color; when the light-emitting device includes a knob 12 of the washing device, the color display area on the knob 12 (for example, one or two places around the circumference of the knob and the center of the knob, i.e., the central area) is controlled to display the corresponding color; when the light-emitting device includes a voltage button 13, the color display area on the power button is controlled to display the corresponding color.

[0104] In this embodiment, when the temperature of the washing equipment is different, the light-emitting device is controlled to display different colors. This not only provides a high-temperature warning but also allows the user to visually perceive the set washing temperature, thus improving the user experience.

[0105] S304. If the user identifier is a colorblind user identifier, then the high temperature prompt mode is determined to be the voice high temperature prompt mode.

[0106] In this embodiment, when the user identifier is determined to be a colorblind user identifier, it indicates that color cannot be used for high temperature warning. Therefore, the high temperature warning mode is determined to be a voice high temperature warning mode, so that the high temperature warning can be provided using the voice high temperature warning mode.

[0107] S305. Provide high temperature alerts based on the voice high temperature alert mode.

[0108] In this embodiment, after determining that the high temperature prompt mode is the voice high temperature prompt mode, a high temperature prompt is made based on the voice high temperature prompt mode, that is, the voice playback device is controlled to play a preset high temperature prompt message, such as outputting the voice "The washing equipment is currently at a high temperature, do not touch it".

[0109] Optionally, the voice playback device can be a voice module on the washing equipment, such as a microphone, or an external voice device that communicates with the washing equipment, such as a smart speaker.

[0110] In any embodiment, optionally, when the washing device is a drum washing machine, the water level of the washing device is obtained when a user inputs an open door command. If the water level is higher than a preset water level, an anti-overflow warning mode is determined based on the user information, and a door-closing anti-overflow warning is issued according to the anti-overflow warning mode.

[0111] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the washing equipment is in heating mode or other water mode (e.g., rinsing mode), if a user inputs an opening command, indicating that the door of the washing equipment (i.e., the machine door) needs to be opened, or after detecting the user's opening action, the current water level of the washing equipment is obtained. If the water temperature is greater than the preset water level, it indicates that the current water temperature of the washing equipment is too high. If the door is opened, water will overflow, so the opening operation is not performed, i.e., the door lock is not opened. In order to avoid confusion for the user, an anti-overflow prompt mode is determined according to the user information, i.e., the user identifier, and a door closing anti-overflow prompt is given according to the anti-overflow prompt mode to inform the user that the reason why the door cannot be opened is to prevent water from overflowing from the washing equipment, thereby avoiding the user's confusion about why the door cannot be opened.

[0112] Optionally, the anti-overflow warning modes include color-coded anti-overflow warning mode and voice-based anti-overflow warning mode.

[0113] Optionally, the process of determining the anti-overflow warning mode based on the user identifier is similar to the process of determining the high temperature warning mode based on the user identifier described above. That is, if the user identifier is a colorblind user identifier, the anti-overflow warning mode is determined to be the voice anti-overflow warning mode; if the user identifier is a non-colorblind user identifier, the anti-overflow warning mode is determined to be the color anti-overflow warning mode.

[0114] Correspondingly, the process of providing door closing overflow warnings based on the voice overflow warning mode is similar to the process of providing high-temperature warnings based on the voice high-temperature warning mode, and will not be repeated here. Similarly, the process of providing door closing overflow warnings based on the color overflow warning mode is similar to the process of providing high-temperature warnings based on the color high-temperature warning mode, and will not be repeated here.

[0115] The process of determining the anti-overflow warning mode based on user information is similar to the process of determining the high temperature warning mode based on user information, both of which are determined through user identification, and will not be described in detail here.

[0116] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the washing equipment is in the target operating mode, it is determined whether there is a human body around the washing equipment. If there is a human body, it indicates that it is necessary to issue a high temperature warning to prevent the user from being scalded. In this case, the user information is obtained for use in issuing the high temperature warning. If there is no human body, it indicates that there is no need to issue a high temperature warning. In this case, the user information is not obtained, that is, no high temperature warning is issued, thereby avoiding unnecessary warnings and reducing the waste of resources.

[0117] In this embodiment, it is determined whether the user identifier corresponding to the washing device is a colorblind user identifier. If the user identifier is a colorblind user identifier, it indicates that the user corresponding to the washing device is a colorblind user, and it is suitable to use voice to provide high temperature warnings. In this case, high temperature warnings are provided according to the voice high temperature warning mode. If the user identifier is a non-colorblind user identifier, it indicates that the user corresponding to the washing device is a normal user. In order to avoid the voice from affecting other users, high temperature warnings are provided according to the color high temperature warning mode, thereby achieving effective high temperature warnings and preventing users from being scalded.

[0118] Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the high temperature warning device provided in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below.
