Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of smart home technology, and specifically provides a control method for a washing device. Background Art

[0002] Washing machines are common household laundry equipment. According to the washing method, washing machines can be roughly divided into pulsator washing machines and drum washing machines. Taking pulsator washing machines as an example, in order to meet the needs of users, pulsator washing machines are equipped with a weight detection module, which detects the weight of the laundry and determines the water level according to the weight of the laundry, such as the washing water level and the rinsing water level.

[0003] However, the water levels corresponding to different clothing weights are preset and fixed. However, in actual use, different users have different washing habits. Some users may feel that the water level determined according to the weight of the clothing is not appropriate and need to readjust or set the water level. When the user washes the clothing again, he needs to reset the water level according to his needs, which affects the user experience.

[0004] Therefore, the art needs a new control method for washing equipment to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, that is, to solve the problem that the water level of the existing washing equipment is fixed and cannot meet the usage requirements of the users, the present invention provides a control method for a washing equipment, and the control method includes the following steps: obtaining the washing water level recommended by the washing equipment; obtaining the target water level set by the user; comparing the washing water level with the target water level; and selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level recommended by the washing equipment based on the comparison result.

[0006] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned control method, the control method also includes: obtaining the operating status of the washing device when the user sets the target water level; the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level recommended by the washing device based on the comparison result" specifically includes: selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level based on the operating status and the comparison result.

[0007] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned control method, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level based on the operating status and the comparison result" specifically includes: if the washing device has not yet performed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is greater than the target water level, then the washing water level is updated according to the target water level, and the rinsing water level is updated according to the washing water level.

[0008] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned control method, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level based on the operating status and the comparison result" also includes: if the washing device has not yet performed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is lower than the target water level, then the rinsing water level is updated according to the target water level, but the washing water level is not updated.

[0009] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned control method, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level based on the operating status and the comparison result" also includes: if the washing device has completed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is greater than the target water level, then the rinsing water level is updated according to the washing water level, but the washing water level is not updated.

[0010] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned control method, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level based on the operating status and the comparison result" also includes: if the washing device has completed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is less than the target water level, then the washing water level and the rinsing water level are updated according to the target water level, and the intensity of the washing water flow when the washing device performs the washing operation this time is increased.

[0011] In a preferred technical solution of the above control method, the control method further comprises: enabling the washing device to perform a water injection operation according to the updated washing water level and rinsing water level during the current operation.

[0012] In the preferred technical scheme of the above control method, after the current operation of the washing device is completed, the control method further includes: storing the target water level set by the user when the washing device is running this time; counting the number of stored target water levels; and selectively updating the washing water level and rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing device based on the counted number.

[0013] In the preferred technical scheme of the above-mentioned control method, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and the rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing device according to the statistical quantity" specifically includes: judging whether the number of target water levels with the same value within the same weight range reaches a preset number; if the number of target water levels with the same value within the same weight range reaches the preset number, updating the washing water level and the rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing device according to the target water level; and / or if the number of target water levels with the same value within the same weight range does not reach the preset number, not updating the washing water level and the rinsing water level of the washing device.

[0014] In the preferred technical scheme of the above control method, the step of "obtaining the washing water level recommended by the washing device" specifically includes: obtaining the weight of the clothes; determining the preset weight range of the weight according to the weight; and determining the washing water level according to the preset weight range.

[0016] Compared with the technical solution of fixing the water level of the washing machine in the prior art, the present invention selectively updates the washing water level and / or rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine according to the comparison result of the washing water level recommended by the washing machine and the target water level set by the user, so that the washing machine performs the washing operation and rinsing operation of this run according to the updated washing water level and / or rinsing water level to meet the user's usage requirements, and avoids the situation where the washing water level and rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine cannot meet the user's usage requirements. The purpose of providing the washing water level and / or rinsing water level that best meets the user's needs for this operation of the washing machine is achieved, thereby improving the user experience.

[0017] Furthermore, after the current operation of the washing machine is finished, the target water level set by the user during the current operation of the washing machine is stored, the number of stored target water levels is counted, and the washing water level and rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine are selectively updated according to the counted number, thereby avoiding updating the washing water level and rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine when the stored target water level is only a water level set by the user accidentally, and avoiding not updating the washing water level and rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine when the stored target water level is a water level frequently used by the user, and still performing washing and rinsing operations according to the fixed washing water level and rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine, so that when the washing machine is operated again, the water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range can be determined according to the updated washing water level and rinsing water level, without the user resetting it, and the user's usage needs can be met, thereby achieving the purpose of providing the most reasonable washing water level and rinsing water level for the next operation of the washing machine, and further improving the user experience.

[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. For example, although the present invention is described in conjunction with a washing machine, the technical solution of the present invention is not limited thereto, and the control method can obviously also be applied to other washing equipment such as a washer-dryer, and such a change does not deviate from the principle and scope of the present invention.

[0027] It should be noted that, in the description of the present invention, the terms "first", "second" and "third" are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0028] Based on the technical problems raised in the background technology, the present invention provides a control method for a washing machine, which aims to selectively update the washing water level and / or rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine according to the comparison result of the washing water level recommended by the washing machine and the target water level set by the user, so that the washing machine performs the washing operation and rinsing operation of this run according to the updated washing water level and / or rinsing water level to meet the user's usage needs, and avoids the situation where the washing water level and rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine cannot meet the user's usage needs. The purpose of providing the washing water level and / or rinsing water level that best meets the user's needs for this operation of the washing machine is achieved, thereby improving the user experience.

[0029] See first Figure 1 , the control method of the present invention is described. Among them, Figure 1 It is a first flow chart of the control method of the present invention.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the control method of the present invention comprises the following steps:

[0031] S100, obtaining a washing water level recommended by the washing machine;

[0032] S200, obtaining a target water level set by a user;

[0033] S300, comparing the washing water level with the target water level;

[0034] S400: Selectively update the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine according to the comparison result.

[0035] Among them, the target water level set by the user may be because after the washing machine recommends the washing water level, the user feels that the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is too high or too low, and needs to readjust the washing water level and the rinsing water level. Under normal circumstances, in a washing process, in addition to the washing water level, there is also a rinsing water level corresponding to the rinsing stage. Generally, the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is higher than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine to ensure the rinsing effect. If the user feels that the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is too high or too low, the user will also feel that the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is too high or too low accordingly. Therefore, the user sets the target water level, and the user's expected rinsing water level can also be determined based on the target water level. It should be noted that the target water level set by the user and the washing water level recommended by the washing machine are different. Of course, the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine can also be equal to the washing water level recommended by the washing machine in other embodiments. The following takes the example that the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is higher than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine as an example to further explain.

[0036] It should be noted that in the above process, the execution order of step S100 and step S200 is not limited to the order listed above. Step S20 may be executed first and then step S100, or step S100 and step S200 may be executed simultaneously. The present invention does not impose any limitation on this.

[0037] Refer to the following Figure 2 , the control method for obtaining the washing water level recommended by the washing machine of the present invention is described. Figure 2 It is a flow chart of the method for obtaining the washing water level control recommended by the washing machine of the present invention.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, in step S100, the step of "obtaining the washing water level recommended by the washing machine" specifically includes:

[0039] S111, obtaining the weight of the clothes;

[0040] S112, determining the preset weight range of the weight according to the weight;

[0041] S113, determining the washing water level according to a preset weight range.

[0042] Preferably, the washing machine includes a weight sensor, a drive motor, an inner tub and a impeller arranged at the bottom of the inner tub, the weight sensor is used to detect the weight of the clothes, the drive motor drives the impeller to rotate through a clutch, or drives the inner tub to rotate through a clutch and synchronously drives the impeller to rotate, and the rotation speeds of the inner tub and the impeller are the same.

[0043] In step S111, the weight of the clothes can be the weight detected by the washing machine, for example, the weight of the clothes can be obtained by weighing the clothes through a weight sensor; or, after the driving motor rotates to a certain speed and stops rotating, the weight of the clothes can be calculated by reading the number of back electromotive force pulses generated by the driving motor. Of course, the weight of the clothes can also be the weight manually input by the user. No matter which method is adopted, as long as the weight of the clothes can be obtained, it will be fine.

[0044] Preferably, the washing machine includes five preset weight ranges, and the five preset weight ranges correspond to different washing water levels and rinsing water levels, respectively. For example, the first preset weight range is 0kg to 1kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the first water level, and the rinsing water level is the second water level; the second preset weight range is 1kg to 2kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the third water level, and the rinsing water level is the fourth water level; the third preset weight range is 2kg to 3kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the fifth water level, and the rinsing water level is the seventh water level; the fourth preset weight range is 3kg to 4kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the sixth water level, and the rinsing water level is the eighth water level; the fifth preset weight range is 4kg to 5kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the ninth water level, and the rinsing water level is the tenth water level. If there are only nine water levels, the rinsing water level can also be the ninth water level. Of course, the number of preset weight ranges included in the washing machine, the division method of the preset weight ranges, and the corresponding washing water level and rinsing water level are not limited to the situations listed above. The weight range can also be divided into three ranges. For example, the first preset weight range is 0kg~3kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the third water level, and the rinsing water level is the fourth water level; the second preset weight range is 3kg~5kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the fifth water level, and the rinsing water level is the seventh water level; the third preset weight range is 5kg~6kg, and the corresponding washing water level is the eighth water level, and the rinsing water level is the tenth water level. Those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the number of preset weight ranges, the division method of the preset weight ranges, and the corresponding washing water level and rinsing water level according to the rated load and accuracy requirements of the washing machine in actual applications.

[0045] In step S112 and step S113, if the weight of the clothes is 1.5kg, then the weight of the clothes is in the second preset weight range, and accordingly, the corresponding washing water level is the third water level, and the corresponding rinsing water level is the fourth water level; for example, if the weight of the clothes is 2.3kg, then the weight of the clothes is in the third preset weight range, and accordingly, the corresponding washing water level is the fifth water level, and the corresponding rinsing water level is the seventh water level; for example, if the weight of the clothes is 4.8kg, then the weight of the clothes is in the fifth preset weight range, and accordingly, the corresponding washing water level is the ninth water level, and the corresponding rinsing water level is the tenth water level, that is, the preset weight range in which the weight is located can be determined according to the weight of the clothes, and thus the washing water level can be determined according to the preset weight range in which the weight is located.

[0046] Alternatively, in an alternative embodiment, the specific method of obtaining the recommended washing water level of the washing machine may also be: obtaining the washing and care program selected by the user, and determining the washing water level according to the selected washing and care program. For example, if the user selects the home textile program, the recommended washing water level and rinsing water level are both the maximum water level, that is, the tenth water level; if the user selects the standard washing program, the recommended washing water level is the eighth water level, and the recommended rinsing water level is the ninth water level; if the user selects the quick wash program, the recommended washing water level is the fifth water level, and the recommended rinsing water level is the sixth water level, and so on.

[0047] Of course, the method of obtaining the recommended washing water level and rinsing water level of the washing machine is not limited to the two methods listed above. Other methods can also be used to determine the washing water level and rinsing water level, such as obtaining the number of clothes and determining the washing water level and rinsing water level based on the number of clothes. No matter which method is adopted, as long as the washing water level and rinsing water level can be determined, it will be fine.

[0048] Refer to the following Figure 3 , the control method for selectively updating the washing water level recommended by the washing machine or the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine of the present invention is described. Figure 3 is a second flow chart of the control method of the present invention; Figure 4 It is a flow chart of a control method for selectively updating a washing water level and / or a rinsing water level recommended by a washing machine according to an operating state and a comparison result of the present invention.

[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, after executing step S200, the control method of the present invention further includes:

[0050] S210, obtaining the operating state of the washing machine when the user sets the target water level;

[0051] In step S400, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine according to the comparison result" specifically includes:

[0052] S411. Based on the operating status and the comparison result, selectively update the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level.

[0053] The operating status includes a washing water filling state, a washing state, a draining state, a dehydration state, a rinsing water filling state, a rinsing state and other states.

[0054] It should be noted that, in the above process, the execution order of step S210 is not limited to the order listed above, and step S210 may also be executed while step S200 is executed, and the present invention does not impose any limitation on this.

[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, in step S411, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and / or the rinsing water level based on the operating status and the comparison result" specifically includes:

[0056] S421, determining whether the washing machine has performed a water filling operation when the user sets the target water level;

[0057] S422: If the washing machine has not yet performed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is greater than the target water level, the washing water level is updated according to the target water level, and the rinsing water level is updated according to the washing water level;

[0058] S423: If the washing machine has not yet performed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is lower than the target water level, the rinsing water level is updated according to the target water level, but the washing water level is not updated;

[0059] S424: If the washing machine has completed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is greater than the target water level, the rinsing water level is updated according to the washing water level, but the washing water level is not updated;

[0060] S425. If the washing machine has completed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, and the washing water level is lower than the target water level, the washing water level and the rinsing water level are updated according to the target water level, and the intensity of the washing water flow of the washing machine during the washing operation is increased.

[0061] In step S422 and step S423, if the washing machine has not yet performed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, it means that the washing machine has not yet filled water into the washing tub. The washing water level and rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine can basically be adjusted and updated according to the target water level set by the user.

[0062] Furthermore, if the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is greater than the target water level set by the user, for example, the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is the fifth water level, the rinsing water level is the seventh water level, and the target water level set by the user is the fourth water level, which is lower than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, it means that the user feels that the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is too high, and accordingly, the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is also too high, and the washing water level and the rinsing water level need to be lowered. Therefore, the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is updated according to the target water level set by the user, so that the updated washing water level is the fourth water level, which is lower than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, thereby lowering the washing water level; and the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is updated according to the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, so that the updated rinsing water level is the fifth water level, which is lower than the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine, thereby lowering the rinsing water level, thereby meeting the user's usage needs.

[0063] Furthermore, if the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is lower than the target water level set by the user, for example, the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is the sixth water level, the rinsing water level is the eighth water level, and the target water level set by the user is the seventh water level, which is greater than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, it means that the user feels that the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is too low, and accordingly, the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is also inappropriate, and the washing water level and the rinsing water level need to be adjusted. Although the target water level set by the user is greater than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine and is different from the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, for the sake of water conservation, the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is not updated, so that the washing machine continues to inject washing water according to the recommended washing water level (i.e., the sixth water level). However, the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is updated according to the target water level set by the user, so that the updated rinsing water level is the seventh water level, which is greater than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, and can rinse the clothes more cleanly, meeting the user's usage needs.

[0064] In step S424 and step S425, if the washing machine has completed the water filling operation when the user sets the target water level, it means that the washing machine has injected washing water into the washing tub according to the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, and the rinse water level recommended by the washing machine can be adjusted and updated according to the target water level set by the user. However, it is necessary to determine whether to update the washing water level recommended by the washing machine based on the comparison result between the washing water level recommended by the washing machine and the target water level set by the user.

[0065] Furthermore, if the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is greater than the target water level set by the user, for example, the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is the fifth water level, the rinsing water level is the seventh water level, and the target water level set by the user is the fourth water level, which is lower than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, since the washing machine has completed the water filling operation, the user sees the matching situation of the actual water level and the clothes, which means that the user has judged that the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is too high based on the actual water level situation, and accordingly, the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is also too high, and the washing water level and the rinsing water level need to be lowered, but the washing machine has already injected washing water into the washing tub according to the washing water level recommended by the washing machine. In order to avoid waste of water resources, the washing water level recommended by the washing machine will not be updated, but the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine needs to be updated according to the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, so that the updated rinsing water level is the fifth water level, which is lower than the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine, thereby lowering the rinsing water level and meeting the user's usage needs.

[0066] Furthermore, if the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is lower than the target water level set by the user, for example, the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is the sixth water level, the rinsing water level is the eighth water level, and the target water level set by the user is the seventh water level, which is higher than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, since the washing machine has completed the water filling operation, the user sees the matching situation of the actual water level and the clothes, which means that the user has judged that the washing water level recommended by the washing machine is too low based on the actual water level situation. Accordingly, the rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine is also inappropriate and needs to be adjusted. Therefore, the washing water level and the rinsing water level are updated according to the target water level set by the user. The washing water level recommended by the washing machine makes the updated washing water level the seventh water level, which is greater than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, thereby raising the washing water level; since the washing water level is raised, the amount of washing water is increased. In order to save water resources, the rinse water level recommended by the washing machine is updated according to the target water level set by the user, so that the updated rinse water level is the seventh water level, which is equal to the updated washing water level. Compared with the solution in which the rinsing water level is greater than the washing water level, the amount of rinsing water is reduced. Moreover, the updated rinse water level is greater than the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, so the clothes can be rinsed clean, meeting the user's usage needs.

[0067] Furthermore, since the washing machine has completed the water filling operation and the detergent has been added according to the washing water level recommended by the washing machine, if the washing water level is raised according to the target water level set by the user at this time, the concentration of the detergent will be reduced. In order to ensure the washing effect, the intensity of the washing water flow will be increased when the washing machine performs the washing operation this time.

[0068] Preferably, the intensity of the washing water flow can be increased by increasing the rotation speed of the impeller, by increasing the rotation-stop ratio of the impeller, or by increasing the rotation speed of the impeller and increasing the rotation-stop ratio of the impeller. Those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the method of increasing the intensity of the washing water flow.

[0069] It should be noted that in the above process, steps S422 to S425 have no order of precedence and are parallel. They are only related to the judgment result of whether the washing machine has performed the water injection operation when the user sets the target water level and the comparison result between the washing water level recommended by the washing machine and the target water level set by the user. The corresponding steps can be executed according to different judgment results and comparison results.

[0070] Refer to the following Figure 5 , the control method of the present invention is further described. Among them, Figure 5 is the third flow chart of the control method of the present invention.

[0071] like Figure 5 As shown, the control method of the present invention also includes:

[0072] S500: When the washing machine is running this time, water injection operation is performed according to the updated washing water level and rinsing water level.

[0073] The current operation of the washing machine may be a standard washing program, a gentle washing program, a home textile program, a quick wash program, a children's clothing program, or a program for washing wool and down. The above programs may include water filling, washing, draining, dehydration, rinsing, and other operations; or the washing machine has a drying function, and the current operation of the washing machine may also be "one of the above programs and the drying program". Of course, the current operation of the washing machine is not limited to the above-mentioned programs, and may also be other programs such as user-defined programs and self-cleaning programs.

[0074] In step S500, if the washing water level and the rinsing water level are updated, the water filling operation is performed according to the updated washing water level and the rinsing water level; if only the rinsing water level is updated, the water filling operation is performed according to the washing water level recommended by the washing machine and the updated rinsing water level, thereby meeting the user's water level requirements and improving the user experience.

[0075] Next, continue reading Figure 5 , and combined with Figure 6 , the control method of the present invention is further described. Among them, Figure 6 It is a flow chart of a control method for selectively updating the washing water level and the rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine according to the statistical quantity of the present invention.

[0076] like Figure 5 As shown, after the washing machine ends this operation, the control method of the present invention further includes:

[0077] S600, storing the target water level set by the user during the current operation of the washing machine;

[0078] S700, counting the number of stored target water levels;

[0079] S800: Selectively update the washing water level and the rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine according to the counted quantity.

[0080] Among them, the clothes within the same weight range refer to clothes within the same preset weight range, for example, clothes within the third preset weight range of 2kg to 3kg, or clothes within the fifth preset weight range of 4kg to 5kg.

[0081] By adopting the above method, when the washing machine is operated again, the water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range can be determined according to the updated washing water level and rinsing water level, and the user's usage needs can be met without the user resetting it, thereby avoiding updating the washing water level and rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine when the stored target water level is only a water level set by the user accidentally, and avoiding not updating the washing water level and rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine when the stored target water level is a water level frequently used by the user. The washing and rinsing operations are still performed according to the fixed washing water level and rinsing water level recommended by the washing machine, thereby achieving the purpose of providing the most reasonable washing water level and rinsing water level for the washing machine to be operated again, and further improving the user experience.

[0082] like Figure 6 As shown, in step S800, the step of "selectively updating the washing water level and the rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine according to the statistical quantity" specifically includes:

[0083] S811, determining whether the number of target water levels within the same weight range has reached a preset number;

[0084] S812: If the number of clothes with the same target water level in the same weight range reaches a preset number, the washing water level and the rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes in the same weight range in the washing machine are updated according to the target water level;

[0085] S813: If the number of target water levels with the same weight range does not reach a preset number, the washing water level and the rinsing water level of the washing machine are not updated.

[0086] In step S812, if the number of target water levels with the same count within the same weight range reaches a preset number, for example, the preset number is 5, and the number of target water levels with the same count within the same weight range is 6, which reaches the preset number, the user has set the target water level 6 times within the same weight range, which means that the target water level is the water level frequently used by the user, and the user is relatively satisfied with the water level, which can meet the user's usage needs. In order to avoid the user resetting the water level when the washing machine is run again, the washing water level and the rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine are updated according to the target water level, so that when the washing machine is run again, the water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range can be determined according to the updated washing water level and the rinsing water level, without the user resetting it, which can meet the user's usage needs, further improving the user experience.

[0087] In step S813, if the counted number of target water levels with the same target water level within the same weight range does not reach the preset number, for example, the preset number is 5, and the counted number of target water levels with the same target water level within the same weight range is 1, which does not reach the preset number, and the user has only set the target water level once within the same weight range, the target water level may be a water level set by the user accidentally, and is not a water level frequently used by the user. Therefore, the washing water level and the rinsing water level of the washing machine are not updated.

[0088] It should be noted that the preset numbers listed above are only exemplary and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the preset numbers according to information such as accuracy requirements in actual applications, such as 4, 6 or 7. No matter how the preset numbers are adjusted and set, it is sufficient as long as it is possible to determine whether to update the washing water level and rinsing water level corresponding to the clothes within the same weight range in the washing machine.

[0089] It should also be noted that in the above process, step S812 and step S813 have no order of precedence and are parallel. They are only related to the judgment result of whether the number of target water levels within the same weight range reaches a preset number. The corresponding steps can be executed according to different judgment results.
