[0002] When a washing machine (such as a dishwasher) is working, the dishes to be washed are usually placed in the inner tank of the washing machine, and the dirt on the dishes to be washed is removed by spraying. However, when the dishes to be washed are placed for a long time, the dirt on the dishes to be washed will gradually solidify and is not easy to be removed.

[0003] The prior art usually achieves the purpose of removing dirt from the dishes to be washed by increasing the spraying intensity. However, increasing the spraying intensity means that the water pressure from the water inlet pipe to the water outlet in the inner tank of the washing device needs to be further increased. Excessive water pressure may cause the water inlet pipe to rupture. In other words, the prior art will be limited by the water pressure when increasing the spraying intensity, and thus the stubborn dirt on the dishes to be washed cannot be completely removed, reducing the washing success rate and washing quality of the washing device.

[0056] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a washing method applied to a washing device provided in an embodiment of the present application. In the embodiment of the present application, the washing method applied to the washing device is performed by the washing device. The washing device may be a dishwasher.

[0057] like Figure 1 As shown, a washing method applied to a washing device provided in an embodiment of the present application may include S101 to S102, which are described in detail as follows:

[0058] In S101, water is fed into the inner tank of the washing device based on a preset water inflow volume.

[0059] In the embodiment of the present application, when the washing device detects a washing request, water can be supplied to the inner tank of the washing device based on a preset water inflow volume, wherein the preset water inflow volume can be set according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0060] It should be noted that the washing device detecting a washing request may be: detecting a preset operation for the washing device. The preset operation may be determined according to actual needs and is not limited here. For example, the preset operation may be clicking a preset control, that is, if the washing device detects that the user clicks a preset control on the washing device, it is considered that a preset operation for the washing device is detected, that is, a washing request is detected.

[0061] In actual applications, the greater the water intake, the more small bubbles (i.e., cavitation bubbles) are generated by the water in the inner tank under the action of ultrasound, which results in more shock waves when the cavitation bubbles burst, which in turn causes the dirt layer on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank to be peeled off, dispersed, emulsified, and fallen off faster under the action of a large number of shock waves. Therefore, in one implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the preset water intake can be determined according to the amount of oil stains on the dishes to be washed, and the more oil stains on the dishes, the greater the preset water intake.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, when the washing device performs the above-mentioned water intake operation, it is also necessary to detect in real time whether the preset water intake volume has been completely taken in.

[0063] In some possible embodiments, when the washing device is filling water into the inner tank of the washing device, in order to determine that the amount of water in the inner tank of the washing device is the preset amount of water inflow, a water level detection device may be configured in the inner tank of the washing device. Therefore, the washing device may detect whether the amount of water in the inner tank of the washing device has reached the preset amount of water inflow through the water level detection device.

[0064] In S102, when it is detected that the preset water intake has been completed, a flushing operation is performed on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank by an ultrasonic generating device located inside the inner tank of the washing device; the flushing operation includes a first preset number of pre-flushing operations and a second preset number of actual flushing operations; the pre-flushing operation includes intermittently turning on the ultrasonic generating device; the actual flushing operation includes spraying the dishes to be washed.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, when the washing machine detects that the preset water intake is complete, it indicates that the washing machine can start to rinse the dishes to be washed in the inner tank. Therefore, the washing machine can rinse the dishes to be washed by the ultrasonic generator located inside the inner tank of the washing machine. The dishes to be washed can be bowls, chopsticks, knives and forks, and plates, etc., which are not limited here.

[0066] As an example and not limitation, the ultrasonic generating device may be an ultrasonic generator.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present application, the flushing operation includes a first preset number of pre-flushing operations and a second preset number of actual flushing operations. The pre-flushing operation includes intermittently turning on the ultrasonic generator, and the actual flushing operation includes performing a spraying operation on the dishes to be washed. The first preset number of times and the second preset number of times can be set according to actual needs and are not limited here.

[0068] It is understandable that when the washing machine performs a flushing operation on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank, it needs to first perform a pre-flushing operation and then perform an actual flushing operation.

[0069] It should be noted that since the ultrasonic generator can continuously generate ultrasonic waves when it is turned on, the water in the inner tank will generate a large number of cavitation bubbles under the action of the ultrasonic waves.

[0070] In some possible embodiments, the first preset number may be one or more times, that is, the first preset number is greater than or equal to 1. The second preset number may be one or more times, that is, the second preset number is greater than or equal to 1.

[0071] Based on this, in one embodiment of the present application, when the first preset number is equal to 1 (ie, once) and the second preset number is equal to 1 (ie, once), the washing device can specifically be operated as follows: Figure 2 S201 to S203 shown perform a rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank, as described in detail as follows:

[0072] In S201, when it is detected that the preset water intake is complete, the ultrasonic generating device is kept in an on state within the first preset time.

[0073] In S202, the ultrasonic generating device is turned off within the second preset time.

[0074] In this embodiment, when the washing machine detects that the preset water intake has been completed, the washing machine can perform a pre-rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed through the ultrasonic generator. Since the execution time of the preset rinse operation includes a first preset time and a second preset time, when the washing machine detects that the preset water intake has been completed, the ultrasonic generator can be kept in an on state for the first preset time, and then turned off for the second preset time.

[0075] It should be noted that the first preset time and the second preset time can be set according to actual needs and are not limited here.

[0076] As an example but not a limitation, when the ultrasonic generating device is in the on state, the water in the inner tank will generate a large number of cavitation bubbles under the action of ultrasonic waves, which are used to peel off the dirt on the tableware to be washed. Therefore, the first preset time can be set according to the amount of oil stains on the tableware to be washed. The greater the amount of oil stains on the tableware, the longer the first preset time, and the smaller the amount of oil stains on the tableware, the shorter the first preset time.

[0077] When the ultrasonic generating device is in the off state, the grease on the dishes to be washed will soften. Therefore, the second preset time can be set according to the coagulation degree of the grease on the dishes to be washed. The higher the coagulation degree, the longer the second preset time, and the lower the coagulation degree, the shorter the second preset time.

[0078] It should be noted that, when the washing machine detects that the current moment reaches the end moment of the second preset time, it indicates that the pre-rinsing operation of the dishes to be washed has been completed.

[0079] In S203, if it is detected that the pre-rinsing operation has been completed, a spraying operation is performed on the dishes to be washed in the actual rinsing operation.

[0080] In this embodiment, when the washing machine detects that the pre-rinsing operation has been completed, it indicates that the actual rinsing operation can be performed on the dishes to be washed. Therefore, the washing machine can perform a spraying operation on the dishes to be washed in the actual rinsing operation to rinse the oil stains on the dishes to be washed.

[0081] It should be noted that when the washing device detects that the pre-rinsing operation has been completed, it means that the washing device does not need to continue using the ultrasonic generating device. Therefore, at this time, the washing device can keep the ultrasonic generating device in the turned-off state after detecting that the pre-rinsing operation has been completed.

[0082] In another embodiment of the present application, when the first preset number of times is greater than 1 (ie, multiple times) and the second preset number of times is equal to 1 (ie, once), the washing device can specifically perform the following steps: Figure 3 S301-S302 shown perform a rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank, as described in detail as follows:

[0083] In S301, when it is detected that the preset water intake is complete, the first preset number of pre-flushing operations are performed; the pre-flushing operation includes keeping the ultrasonic generating device in an on state during the first preset time and turning off the ultrasonic generating device during the second preset time.

[0084] In S302, if it is detected that the first preset number of pre-rinsing operations have been completed, a spraying operation is performed on the dishes to be washed in the actual rinsing operation.

[0085] In this embodiment, when the washing machine detects that the preset water intake has been completed, the washing machine can perform a pre-rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed for a first preset number of times through the ultrasonic generator. Since the execution time of the preset rinse operation includes the first preset time and the second preset time, when the washing machine detects that the preset water intake has been completed, the ultrasonic generator can be kept in an on state for the first preset time, and then turned off for the second preset time to complete a pre-rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed. Afterwards, the washing machine can continue to keep the ultrasonic generator in an on state for the first preset time, and turn off the ultrasonic generator for the second preset time, until the washing machine performs the pre-rinsing operation a number of times equal to the first preset number of times.

[0086] It should be noted that, when the washing machine detects that the number of times the washing machine performs the pre-rinsing operation is equal to the first preset number, it indicates that the washing machine has completed the pre-rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed.

[0087] In another embodiment of the present application, when the first preset number of times is greater than 1 (i.e., multiple times), the second preset number of times is greater than 1 (i.e., multiple times), and the first preset number of times is equal to the second preset number of times, the washing device can be specifically operated as follows: Figure 4 S401 to S404 shown perform a rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank, as described in detail as follows:

[0088] In S401, when it is detected that the preset water intake amount is complete, the ultrasonic generating device is kept in an on state within the first preset time.

[0089] In S402, the ultrasonic generating device is turned off within the second preset time.

[0090] In S403, if it is detected that the pre-rinsing operation has been completed, a spraying operation is performed on the dishes to be washed in the actual rinsing operation, and the actual number of rinses of the washing device is recorded.

[0091] In S404, if it is detected that the actual flushing number is less than the first preset number, the process returns to executing the step of keeping the ultrasonic generating device in the on state within the first preset time and subsequent steps until the actual flushing number is greater than or equal to the first preset number.

[0092] In this embodiment, the washing machine can perform an actual rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed each time after completing the pre-rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed. That is, each time the washing machine detects that the current moment has reached the end moment of the second preset time, it indicates that the pre-rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed has been completed. At this time, the washing machine can perform an actual rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed, that is, perform a spraying operation on the dishes to be washed, thereby completing a complete rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed.

[0093] After the washing machine performs the above-mentioned pre-rinsing operation and actual rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed, the washing machine can record the actual number of times the dishes to be washed are rinsed by the washing machine at this time, and compare the actual number of times of rinsing with the first preset number or the second preset number.

[0094] It is understandable that, since the first preset number is equal to the second preset number, the preset number compared with the actual flushing number can be the first preset number or the second preset number, and there is no limitation here.

[0095] The following description will be made by taking the comparison of the actual flushing times with the first preset times as an example.

[0096] In one embodiment of the present application, when the washing device detects that the actual number of rinses is greater than or equal to the first preset number, it indicates that the washing device has completed all rinse operations on the dishes to be washed. Therefore, at this time, the washing device can stop the rinse operation on the dishes to be washed and output a prompt message to indicate that the dishes to be washed have been cleaned.

[0097] In another embodiment of the present application, when the washing device detects that the actual number of rinses is less than the first preset number, it means that the washing device has not completed all rinse operations on the dishes to be washed. Therefore, the washing device needs to continue to execute steps S401 to S403 until the actual number of rinses is greater than or equal to the first preset number.

[0098] As can be seen from the above, the washing method applied to a washing device provided by the embodiment of the present application performs a water supply operation to the inner tank of the washing device based on a preset water supply amount; when it is detected that the preset water supply amount has been completed, the ultrasonic generator located inside the inner tank of the washing device performs a rinsing operation on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank; the rinsing operation includes a pre-rinsing operation of a first preset number of times and an actual rinsing operation of a second preset number of times; the pre-rinsing operation includes intermittently turning on the ultrasonic generator; the actual rinsing operation includes performing a spraying operation on the dishes to be washed. In actual applications, since the ultrasonic generator can generate ultrasonic waves, and a large number of small bubbles (i.e., cavitation bubbles) can be generated when the ultrasonic waves act on the water of the preset water supply amount in the inner tank, and a strong shock wave is generated when the cavitation bubbles burst, a part of the dirt layer on the dishes to be washed in the inner tank is peeled off, dispersed, emulsified, and fallen off under the action of the shock wave. Therefore, the washing method applied to the washing device provided by the embodiment of the present application can remove stubborn dirt on the dishes to be washed by the ultrasonic waves generated by the ultrasonic generator, thereby improving the washing success rate and washing quality of the washing device.

[0099] See also Figure 5 , Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a washing method for washing equipment provided by another embodiment of the present application. Figure 1 Correspondingly, the washing method for washing equipment provided in this embodiment may further include S501 to S502 before S102. Accordingly, step S102 may specifically include S503, which is described in detail as follows:

[0100] In S501, the tableware image of the tableware to be washed is obtained, and the number of tableware and the amount of oil stains on the tableware are determined.

[0101] In this embodiment, in order to obtain an accurate amount of grease on the tableware to be washed, the washing device needs to obtain a tableware image of the tableware to be washed before performing a rinsing operation on the tableware to be washed.

[0102] In one implementation of this embodiment, the washing machine can obtain the tableware image of the tableware to be washed in the inner pot in advance through a shooting device and store it. When the washing machine needs to determine the number of tableware and the amount of grease on the tableware, the tableware image is obtained. The shooting device can be a camera.

[0103] In this embodiment, after acquiring the tableware image, the washing machine can import the tableware image into a preset oil stain amount detection model to obtain the tableware oil stain amount corresponding to the tableware image. The preset oil stain amount detection model is used to detect the oil stain amount in the tableware image. The preset oil stain amount detection model can be a deep learning model, which takes the tableware image as input and takes the tableware oil stain amount corresponding to the tableware image as output.

[0104] The washing machine can also import the above-mentioned tableware image into a preset target detection model to obtain the target recognition result corresponding to the tableware image, and count the number of target objects to obtain the number of tableware corresponding to the tableware image. Among them, the preset target detection model is used to detect the target object in the tableware image and identify the type of the target object. The preset target detection model can be an existing target detection model based on a convolutional neural network. The target recognition result is used to describe the type of target object contained in the above-mentioned tableware image. The type of the target object can be various tableware (such as bowls and chopsticks, knives and forks, and plates, etc.).

[0105] In S502, a target dosage of the detergent is determined according to the number of tableware and the amount of oil stains on the tableware.

[0106] In this embodiment, the washing machine can import the number of tableware and the amount of oil stains on the tableware into a preset dosage formula to calculate the target dosage of the detergent.

[0107] In one embodiment of the present application, the preset dosage formula is specifically:

[0108] D = ω1O + ω2C;

[0109] Wherein, D represents the target dosage of detergent, O represents the amount of oil stains on tableware, C represents the number of tableware, ω1 represents the weight coefficient corresponding to the amount of oil stains on tableware, and ω2 represents the weight coefficient corresponding to the number of tableware.

[0110] It should be noted that the above-mentioned cleaning agent can be an ultrasonic chemical cleaning agent.

[0111] In S503, when the ultrasonic wave generating device is in an on state during the pre-rinsing operation, a cleaning agent matching the target dosage is added to the inner pot.

[0112] In this embodiment, after determining the target dosage of the detergent, the washing device can release the detergent matching the target dosage into the inner tank when the ultrasonic generating device is in the turned-on state during the pre-rinsing operation, so that the detergent and the cavitation bubbles generated by the water in the inner tank under the action of the ultrasonic wave are combined, and at the same time act on the stubborn dirt on the tableware to be washed, thereby improving the cleaning rate of the tableware to be washed.

[0113] From the above, it can be seen that the washing method provided in this embodiment is applied to a washing device, which obtains a tableware image of the tableware to be washed, and determines the number of tableware and the amount of oil stains on the tableware; determines the target dosage of the detergent according to the number of tableware and the amount of oil stains on the tableware, and finally, when the ultrasonic generating device is in an on state in the pre-rinsing operation in the rinsing operation of the tableware to be washed, the detergent matching the target dosage is added to the inner tank, so that when the washing device peels off the stubborn dirt on the tableware to be washed by the generated cavitation bubbles, the stubborn dirt on the tableware to be washed can be further cleaned by the added detergent, thereby accelerating the cleaning speed and further improving the washing success rate and washing quality of the washing device.

[0114] See also Figure 6 , Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a flowchart of a washing method for washing equipment provided in another embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 Corresponding to the embodiment, the washing method applied to the washing equipment provided in this embodiment may further include S601 to S604 after S502, which are described in detail as follows:

[0115] In S601, a first flushing factor is obtained according to the number of tableware and the amount of oil stains on the tableware.

[0116] In this embodiment, the first flushing factor can be calculated according to the following formula:

[0118] Wherein, L1 represents the first flushing factor, O represents the amount of grease on the tableware to be washed, and C represents the number of tableware to be washed.

[0119] In S602, a second flushing factor is obtained according to the target dose.

[0120] In S603, a third flushing factor is obtained according to the preset water inflow.

[0121] In S604, the first flushing factor, the second flushing factor, and the third flushing factor are introduced into a preset conversion formula to calculate the first preset number of times.

[0122] In this embodiment, the preset conversion formula is specifically:

[0123]

[0124] Among them, n1 represents the first preset number of times, H represents the preset water inlet, A represents the number of cavitation bubbles generated by the reference water inlet under the action of ultrasound, L1 represents the first flushing factor, L2 represents the second flushing factor, L3 represents the third flushing factor, ω1, ω2 and ω3 represent preset coefficients.

[0125] From the above, it can be seen that the washing method provided in this embodiment is applied to a washing device, which obtains a first flushing factor according to the number of tableware and the amount of oil stains on the tableware; obtains a second flushing factor according to a target dosage; obtains a third flushing factor according to a preset water intake; and imports the first flushing factor, the second flushing factor and the third flushing factor into a preset conversion formula, so as to accurately calculate the first preset number of pre-rinsing operations performed by the washing device, which not only improves the working efficiency of the washing device, but also avoids excessive use of the ultrasonic generating device and extends the service life of the ultrasonic generating device.
