Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of home appliance control, for example, to a method and device for controlling a washing device to open a door and a washing device. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the washing device entering thousands of households, users control the washing device through the operation of the control panel. Taking a washing machine as an example, when the user needs to put clothes into the washing machine during the washing process, the user needs to interrupt or close the running program of the washing machine to pause the running process of the washing machine, but this process usually interrupts the running of the washing program by pressing the control panel of the washing machine or selecting the remote control device, and then puts the clothes to be washed after stopping the washing program. It can be seen that the existing control method is committed to the control of home appliances through the hand operation of the user.

[0003] However, when the user needs to put clothes into the washing machine during the washing process, the user must first put the clothes in the hand aside, then interrupt the running of the washing program by pressing the control panel of the washing machine or selecting the remote control device, and manually open the washing window and put the clothes to be washed after the washing program is interrupted. This control method is very cumbersome and time-consuming, and cannot meet the user's convenient control demand for the washing device. SUMMARY

[0004] To provide a general summary, the following is a simplified outline of some aspects of the disclosed embodiments.

[0007] In some embodiments, the presence of the user in the projection area of the operation interface is determined in the following manner: obtaining the amount of change in the environmental parameter of the projection area; and determining that the user is present in the projection area of the first operation interface when the amount of change in the environmental parameter is not less than a preset value.

[0008] In some embodiments, the presence of the user in the projection area of the operation interface is determined in the following manner: obtaining the length of time the user stays in the projection area, and determining that the user is present in the projection area of the first operation interface when the length of time the user stays reaches a first preset length of time.

[0009] In some embodiments, if the user is present in the projection area of the first operation interface, the target washing device is controlled to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface, including obtaining the water level in the washing space of the target washing device if the user is present in the projection area of the first operation interface; and if the water level is not higher than a preset safety height, the target washing device is controlled to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface.

[0010] In some embodiments, after the door of the target washing device is controlled to open, the method further comprises: when the weight of the main body of the target washing device increases, projecting a second operation interface to the ground by the target washing device, the second operation interface being configured to be associated with a second operation instruction for controlling the target washing device to start a washing program; when the target washing device receives a door closing signal, closing the door body of the target washing device; and controlling the target washing device to execute the second operation instruction associated with the second operation interface.

[0011] In some embodiments, the target washing device is provided with a timing module, and after the target washing device executes the second operation instruction, the method further comprises: projecting a third operation interface to the ground by the target washing device, the third operation interface being used to display the remaining washing time of the target washing device.

[0012] In some embodiments, the target washing device is provided with a distance detection module, and the method further comprises: obtaining the distance between the eyes of the user and the third operation interface collected by the distance detection module; and adjusting the information displayed in the third operation interface according to the distance.

[0013] In some embodiments, the device comprises: a projection module configured to project, by the target washing appliance, a first operation interface to the ground when the target washing appliance is running a washing program and it is sensed that a user has an intention to open the door, the first operation interface being configured to be associated with a first operation instruction for controlling the target washing appliance to interrupt the running washing program; a first operation instruction control module configured to control the target washing appliance to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface if a user is present in a projection area of the first operation interface; and an open door control module configured to generate an open door control instruction for opening a door body of the target washing appliance and control the target washing appliance to open the door after the target washing appliance executes the first operation instruction.

[0014] In some embodiments, the device comprises: a processor and a memory storing program instructions, the processor being configured to execute the aforementioned method of controlling a washing appliance to open a door when executing the program instructions.

[0015] In some embodiments, the washing appliance comprises the aforementioned device of controlling a washing appliance to open a door.

[0016] The method, device and washing appliance provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure can achieve the following technical effects: by projecting a first operation interface to the ground when the target washing appliance is running a washing program and it is sensed that a user has an intention to open the door, the user can operate the first operation interface projected to the ground when needing to put clothes into the washing process. Specifically, by judging whether a user is present in a projection area of the first operation interface, it can be determined whether the user currently wants to control the washing program to stop. When needing to control the washing program to stop, an operation instruction corresponding thereto is obtained, and then after executing the control instruction to stop, an open door control instruction for opening a door body of the washing appliance is generated to control the washing appliance to open the door. This solution can solve the problem that the user cannot control the washing appliance when the user's hands are not convenient to use the operation panel, and provides a more convenient control mode for the user to control the washing appliance.

[0028] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of a method for controlling a washing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, in combination with Figure 1 As shown in the figure, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for controlling a washing apparatus to open a door, comprising:

[0029] S11, when the target washing apparatus is running a washing program and senses a user's intention to open the door, the target washing apparatus projects a first operation interface to the ground, the first operation interface is configured to associate a first operation instruction, the first operation instruction is used to control the target washing apparatus to stop the running washing program.

[0030] S12, if a user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface, controlling the target washing equipment to execute a first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface.

[0031] S13, after the target washing equipment executes the first operation instruction, generating an open-door control instruction for opening a door body of the target washing equipment, and performing open-door control on the target washing equipment.

[0032] In step 11, when the target washing equipment is running a washing program and senses that the user has an open-door intention, the target washing equipment projects a first operation interface to the ground.

[0033] In this scheme, the target washing equipment can be a household appliance with a washing function, such as a washing machine, a dishwasher, etc. The washing program can be a cleaning program configured for the washing equipment, such as a heavy washing, a soft washing, etc. In an example, a sound collection module can be configured on the target washing equipment, and the user sends an open-door request through voice. When the target washing equipment receives the open-door request of the user, it is determined that the user has an open-door intention during the washing process.

[0034] In step 12, if a user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface, controlling the target washing equipment to execute a first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface.

[0035] In this scheme, after the target washing equipment projects the first operation interface, the first operation interface is associated with a first operation instruction, and the first operation instruction is used to control the target washing equipment to stop the running washing program. Then, whether the user currently needs to stop the running washing program can be determined by sensing whether a user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface. In this way, the current control purpose of the user can be more accurately determined, so that the target washing equipment obtains accurate control instructions.

[0036] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, whether a user controls the target washing equipment can be determined by sensing whether a user exists in the projection area. For example, whether a user exists in the projection area can be sensed by infrared sensing technology or ultrasonic reflection technology.

[0037] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the positions of the sensing area and the projection area can be pre-set according to actual conditions. The specific positions of the sensing area and the projection area can be the same or different.

[0038] In step 13, after the target washing equipment executes the first operation instruction, an open-door control instruction for opening a door body of the target washing equipment is generated, and open-door control is performed on the target washing equipment.

[0039] The method for controlling the opening of the washing device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure facilitates the opening control of the washing device when the user's hands are inconvenient to control the remote controller or the control panel.

[0040] Optionally, to determine that the user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface, the method comprises:

[0041] S21, obtaining the environmental parameter change amount of the projection area.

[0042] S22, when the environmental parameter change amount is not less than a preset value, determining that the user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface.

[0043] Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a method for determining that the user exists in the projection area provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, in combination with Figure 2 As shown in the step S21, the environmental parameter change amount of the projection area is obtained by collecting the initial environmental parameter and the current environmental parameter of the projection area. The environmental parameter comprises the light brightness value and / or the ultrasonic reflection value. In the step S22, when the change amount of the environmental parameter reaches the preset value, it is determined that the user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface.

[0044] Determining that the user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface at least includes the following three cases: the light brightness value change amount in the projection area exceeds the first preset value, the ultrasonic reflection value change amount in the projection area exceeds the second preset value, and the light brightness value change amount and the ultrasonic reflection value change amount in the projection area both exceed the respective preset values. When any of the foregoing three cases occurs, it is determined that the user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface. By determining that the user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface through the environmental parameter change amount, when it is determined that the user exists in the projection area, the target washing device can be accurately controlled to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface, thereby avoiding the repeated execution of the first operation instruction and affecting the user's use.

[0045] Optionally, to prevent the determination that the user exists in the first operation interface when the user passes through the projection area without the operation purpose, causing the device to be misoperated, in an optimized scheme, the user's stay duration in the projection area can also be combined to determine that the user exists in the first operation interface. That is, when it is determined that the user is located in the projection area, the user's stay duration in the projection area can be obtained, and when the stay duration reaches the first preset duration, it is determined that the user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface.

[0046] This scheme can ensure the accuracy of the user operation intention recognition, avoid the operation events that are not intended by the user, effectively prevent the device from being misoperated due to misrecognition, avoid frequent operation instruction recognition, and help save device processing resources.

[0047] Optionally, in order to prevent water in the target washing equipment from leaking out of the opening after the door body of the target washing equipment is opened, in the present scheme, if a user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface, the water level in the washing space of the target washing equipment is obtained; if the water level is not higher than the preset safety height, the target washing equipment is controlled to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface.

[0048] In the present scheme, if a user exists in the projection area of the first operation interface, the water level in the washing space of the target washing equipment is obtained. Specifically, when the water level is not higher than the preset safety height, the target washing equipment is controlled to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface. The safety water level can be preset according to the height dimension of the washing equipment. With this scheme, it is prevented that water in the target washing equipment leaks out of the opening when the target washing equipment is opened.

[0049] In addition, if the obtained water level in the target washing equipment is higher than the preset safety height, the target washing equipment can be controlled to continue running the current washing program. The target washing equipment can also be controlled to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface, but after the target washing equipment executes the first operation instruction, no open-door control instruction is generated, so as to prevent the target washing equipment from opening the door body when the water level is higher than the safety water level. In an optimized scheme, after the target washing equipment is controlled to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface, a drainage instruction can be generated to drain the water level in the target washing equipment to be lower than the safety water level, and then the open-door control of the target washing equipment is performed.

[0050] Optionally, in order to make the target washing equipment continue to run the washing program after the target washing equipment is put into clothes, in the present scheme, when the weight of the main body of the target washing equipment increases, the target washing equipment projects a second operation interface to the ground, the second operation interface is configured to be associated with a second operation instruction, and the second operation instruction is used to control the target washing equipment to start the washing program; when the target washing equipment receives a door closing signal, the door body of the target washing equipment is closed; and the target washing equipment is controlled to execute the second operation instruction associated with the second operation interface.

[0051] In the present scheme, taking a washing machine as an example, when a user adds clothes to be washed into the washing machine, the weight of the main body of the washing machine increases. That is, by detecting whether the weight of the main body of the washing machine increases, it can be determined whether the user has a demand to control the washing machine, and whether to trigger the projection of the second operation interface of the washing machine. In the present example, when the weight of the main body of the washing machine increases, it can be determined that the user has a demand to control the washing machine, and the second operation interface can be projected to the ground, so as to facilitate further operation of the user.

[0052] In actual application, the operation interface can be projected to the ground on one side of the target washing equipment main body, and the user can perform operation control based on the unique projected interface; or, in order to facilitate user operation, the operation interface can be projected to the ground on multiple sides of the target washing equipment main body, and the user can perform operation control on any projected interface according to his own use demand.

[0053] Further, in the present scheme, after the target washing equipment projects the second operation interface to the ground, it is determined whether the target washing equipment receives a door closing signal, and the door body of the target washing equipment is closed after receiving the door closing signal. Thus, after closing the door body of the target washing equipment, the target washing equipment is controlled to execute the second operation instruction associated with the second operation interface, so that the target washing equipment starts the washing program after closing the target door body and continues to wash the clothes in the target washing equipment.

[0054] Alternatively, in order to enable the user to obtain the remaining washing time of the target washing equipment, in the present scheme, the target washing equipment is configured with a timing module, and after the target washing equipment executes the second operation instruction, the target washing equipment projects a third operation interface to the ground, and the third operation interface is used to display the remaining washing time of the target washing equipment.

[0055] In the present scheme, a timing module can be configured on the target washing equipment, and then after the target washing equipment executes the second operation instruction, a third interface displaying the remaining washing time of the target washing equipment is projected to the ground. In the present scheme, the target washing equipment can be configured with a projection module and a sensing module on multiple sides, and the third operation interface can be projected to the ground on one side or multiple sides as needed. In one example, when the user approaches the target washing equipment, the third operation interface can be projected to the ground on all sides of the target washing equipment. As a preferred scheme, in order to save electric energy, when the user is sensed to appear in the sensing area, the corresponding projection module can be controlled to project the third operation interface to the ground on the corresponding side. For example, when the sensing module on the left side of the target washing equipment senses that the user approaches the target washing equipment, the projection module on the left side of the target washing equipment can be controlled to project the third operation interface to the ground on the left side of the target washing equipment. With this scheme, the user can obtain the remaining washing time of the target washing equipment regardless of the direction from which he approaches the target washing equipment, facilitating user use.

[0056] Alternatively, in order to enable the user to more clearly obtain the display content of the third operation interface, in the present scheme, the target washing equipment is configured with a distance detection module, which can obtain the distance between the user's eyes and the third operation interface collected by the distance detection module; and adjust the information displayed in the third operation interface according to the distance.

[0057] In the scheme, the distance between the user and the third operation interface is collected by the distance detection module. The distance between the target user's eyes and the third operation interface can be directly detected, or the height of the target user can be detected, and the distance between the user's eyes and the third operation interface can be obtained according to a system preset reference table (the system preset reference table is a reference table of the height of the user and the distance between the user's eyes and the third operation interface). The display information of the operation interface is adjusted according to the distance between the user's eyes and the operation interface. In this way, more personalized interface display services can be provided for the user, and the operation experience of the user is improved. The convenience requirement of the user for washing control is met. The adjustment of the information displayed on the operation interface can be reflected in the adjustment of the icons and / or text displayed on the interface, for example, the adjustment of the font size, the adjustment of the icon size, the adjustment of the display brightness, the adjustment of the display color, etc. The present embodiment does not make specific limitation on this.

[0058] In actual application, when the target washing equipment is a washing machine, and the washing machine is running a washing program and senses that the user wants to control the washing machine to open the door, the washing machine projects a first operation interface to the ground. At this time, the first operation interface is used to associate a first operation instruction for controlling the target washing equipment to stop the washing program. After it is determined that the user is present in the projection area of the first operation interface, it is judged whether the water level in the washing machine is higher than a safe water level. When the water level is not higher than the safe water level, a door opening control instruction for opening the washing machine is generated, so that the washing equipment is controlled to open the door body according to the door opening control instruction. After the user puts the laundry to be washed into the washing machine, when it is sensed that the weight of the washing machine main body increases, a second operation interface for starting the washing program is projected to the ground. When a door closing signal is received, the door body of the washing machine is closed, and the washing machine is controlled to continue to execute the washing program. At this time, the washing machine projects a third operation interface to the ground, which displays the remaining washing time. The distance between the user's eyes and the third operation interface is obtained, and the display information of the third operation interface is adjusted according to the corresponding distance, so that the user can obtain the remaining washing time of the washing machine.

[0059] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of a device for controlling the opening of a washing equipment provided by the present embodiment, which is combined with Figure 3As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure provides a device for controlling the opening of a washing device, which comprises a projection module 31, a first operation instruction control module 32 and an opening control module 33.

The first operation instruction control module 32 is configured to control the target washing device to execute the first operation instruction associated with the first operation interface if there is a user in the projection area of the first operation interface. The opening control module 33 is configured to generate an opening control instruction for opening the door body of the target washing device after the target washing device executes the first operation instruction, and to control the opening of the target washing device.

[0060] By using the device for controlling the opening of a washing device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first operation interface can be projected to the ground when the target washing device is running a washing program and it is sensed that a user has an intention to open the door. Thus, the user can operate the first operation interface projected to the ground when he / she needs to put clothes in the washing process. Specifically, by judging whether there is a user in the projection area of the first operation interface, it can be determined whether the user currently wants to control the washing program to stop. When the stopping control is needed, the operation instruction corresponding thereto is obtained, and then after the stopping control instruction is executed, the opening control instruction for opening the door body of the washing device is generated to control the opening of the washing device. Thus, the problem that the user cannot control the washing device when his / her hands are not convenient to use the operation panel can be solved, and a more convenient control mode of the washing device is provided for the user.
