[0048] Now, various exemplary embodiments of the present application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that: Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangements, numerical expressions, and numerical values of the components and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present application.

[0049] At the same time, it should be understood that, for the sake of convenience of description, the dimensions of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship.

[0050] The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative in nature and is not intended as any limitation to the present application, its application, or use.

[0052] It should be noted that like reference numerals and letters denote like items in the following figures, and thus, once an item is defined in one figure, further discussion thereof is not required in subsequent figures.

[0053] In addition, the technical solutions between various embodiments of the present application may be combined with each other, but it must be based on the fact that those of ordinary skill in the art can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions results in contradictions or cannot be implemented, it should be considered that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present application.

[0054] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back...) in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement conditions between components in a specific posture (as shown in the figures). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0055] The following Figures 1-3 will describe a method for operating a washing machine according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. It should be noted that the following application scenarios are only shown for the convenience of understanding the spirit and principle of the present application, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited in this regard. On the contrary, the embodiments of the present application can be applied to any applicable scenario.

[0056] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of an exemplary system architecture 100 of a method for operating a washing machine or the operation of a washing machine to which the embodiments of the present application can be applied is shown.

[0057] As Figure 1 shown, the system architecture 100 may correspond to the field of shared washing machines, which includes one or more of washing machines 101, 102, 103, a network 104, and a server 105. The network 104 is used to provide a medium for communication links between the washing machines 101, 102, 103 and the server 105. The network 104 may include various connection types, such as wired, wireless communication links, or fiber optic cables, etc.

[0058] It should be understood that Figure 1The numbers of washing machines, networks, and servers in this application are merely illustrative. According to actual implementation requirements, there can be any number of washing machines, networks, and servers. For example, server 105 can be a server cluster composed of multiple servers, etc.

[0059] Users can use washing machines 101, 102, and 103 to interact with server 105 through network 104 to receive or send messages, collect images, etc. Washing machines 101, 102, and 103 can include various electronic devices with display screens and camera acquisition devices.

[0060] The washing machines 101, 102, and 103 in this application can be washing machines that provide various services. For example, users can achieve the following through washing machine 103 (which can also be washing machine 101 or 102): obtain an early end instruction sent by a target terminal; determine that the water level of the washing machine is lower than a preset water level line, and unlock the door lock of the washing machine; determine that the dehydration condition is met, and start the dehydration function of the washing machine during the period when the dehydration condition is met.

[0061] It should be noted here that the operation method of the washing machine provided by the embodiments of this application can be executed by one or more of washing machines 101, 102, and 103, and / or server 105. Correspondingly, the operation device of the washing machine provided by the embodiments of this application is generally set in the corresponding washing machine, and / or in server 105, but this application is not limited thereto.

[0062] Furthermore, this application also proposes an operation method, device, target terminal, and medium for a washing machine.

[0063] Figure 2 Schematically shows a flowchart of an operation method of a washing machine according to an embodiment of this application. As Figure 2 shown, this method is applied to a washing machine and includes:

[0064] S101, obtain an early end instruction sent by a target terminal.

[0065] Among them, a shared washing machine refers to a shared service provided by an enterprise in commercial areas, campuses, etc., which is a new form of the sharing economy. Among them, for a shared washing machine, users can bring their own detergents, put the clothes to be washed into the washing machine, and then, according to the instructions of the application on the terminal, select the service content they need for washing. After paying, pressing the start instruction can indicate the washing machine to start washing the clothes.

[0066] Furthermore, the main principle of shared washing machines is that the client connects to the server through a communication module and sends commands to the main control module to control the operation of the washing machine. However, when using a shared washing machine, if users want to end the current program early, the clothes may have high moisture content, which affects the user's experience of picking up clothes.

[0067] S102: Determine if the water level of the washing machine is lower than a preset water level, and unlock the door of the washing machine.

[0068] Furthermore, since washing machines are usually equipped with a door lock, the purpose is to prevent users from opening the lid of the washing machine while the washing machine is running, thereby avoiding the safety hazard caused by users opening the lid of the washing machine without authorization during the washing process.

[0069] In addition, in order to avoid the problem that the washing water in the washing machine flows out directly when the user opens the door lock directly after generating the early end instruction. Figure 3 As shown, the present application can first obtain the current water level inside the washing machine and compare the water level with a preset water level line. The door lock of the washing machine will be released only when the water level line is lower than a certain level.

[0070] It should be noted that the present application does not make any specific limitation on the preset water level line, for example, it can be 1 cm, 5 cm, etc.

[0071] Furthermore, this application does not limit the method for unlocking the washing machine door. For example, the washing machine may unlock the door after automatically detecting that the water level is lower than a preset water level. Alternatively, after the server determines that the water level is lower than the preset water level, it may send a door unlock command to the washing machine, so that the washing machine begins to unlock the door after receiving the command.

[0072] S103, determining that a dehydration condition is met, and starting a dehydration function of the washing machine when the dehydration condition is met.

[0073] Furthermore, in this application, after the door lock is released, two situations may occur: one is that the user directly opens the door cover of the washing machine and takes out clothes after finding that the door lock is released. The other situation is that the user takes out clothes before reaching the washing machine.

[0074] For the second case, the present application can determine that the dehydration conditions may be met at present, and start the dehydration function of the washing machine after determining that the dehydration conditions are met, so as to ensure that when the user takes out the clothes, the problem of excessive water content in the clothes causing inconvenience to the user is avoided.

[0075] It should be noted that the present application does not specifically limit the dehydration conditions. For example, it can be determined that the current dehydration conditions are met when it is detected that there is no user within a certain range around the current washing machine. It can also be determined that the current dehydration conditions are met when it is detected that the time between the current time and the time when the early end instruction is received is shorter than a preset time period, and so on.

[0076] In addition, during the process of starting the dehydration function of the washing machine in the present application, the dehydration function of the washing machine will only be continuously started during the period when the dehydration conditions are met. It can be understood that, for example, if it is found that the current time point does not meet the dehydration conditions during the dehydration process, the dehydration function needs to be immediately stopped.

[0077] In the present application, after receiving the early end instruction sent by the target terminal, it is determined that the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line, the door lock of the washing machine is released, and it is determined that the dehydration conditions are met, and the dehydration function of the washing machine is started during the period when the dehydration conditions are met. By applying the technical solution of the present application, after receiving the early end operation instruction issued by the user, the water level height of the current washing machine can be automatically detected, and the door lock of the washing machine can only be opened when it is determined that the water level height is low, and the dehydration function is started when no user is detected near the washing machine. Thus, the purpose of ending the operation of the washing machine in advance is achieved.

[0078] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner of the present application, after S102 (releasing the door lock of the washing machine), the following steps may be included:

[0079] Determine that the water level height of the washing machine is not lower than the preset water level line;

[0080] Start the drainage function of the washing machine until it is determined that the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line.

[0081] Furthermore, after comparing the current water level height inside the washing machine with the preset water level line in the present application, if it is detected that the water level height of the washing machine is greater than or equal to the preset water level line, it is determined that there is too much washing water inside the current washing machine. Therefore, in order to avoid the drawback that the washing water inside the washing machine directly flows out when the user directly opens the door lock after generating the early end instruction. The present application can start the drainage function of the washing machine until it is determined that the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line, and then stop the drainage function of the washing machine.

[0082] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner of the present application, after S101 (receiving the early end instruction sent by the target terminal), the following steps may be included:

[0083] Determine that the door lock of the washing machine has not been opened within the first preset time period, and use the short-range communication technology to detect whether there is a first user within the preset range of the washing machine; <X

[0084] It is determined that the first user is not detected within a preset range of the washing machine, and it is determined that the dehydration condition is met.

[0085] Furthermore, the present application can detect that the door lock of the washing machine has not been opened by the user within a period of time after the washing machine has been contacted with the door lock, and thus determine that the user may not have reached the washing machine at this time. Therefore, the present application can use short-range communication technology to detect whether there is a user within the surrounding area of the washing machine. This is also to avoid the safety hazard caused by the user opening the washing machine cover without authorization during the dehydration process.

[0086] Furthermore, near-field communication technology can be a short-range wireless communication technology used between various communication terminals in sensing and control applications. Furthermore, near-field communication technology is a relatively low-speed, two-way wireless network technology suitable for use between a range of electronic components and devices with a short transmission range and low data transmission rate. It has advantages such as low complexity and short distance, as well as low cost and low power consumption. It primarily relies on wireless networks for transmission, enabling wireless connections at close range, and is a wireless network communication technology. For example, near-field communication technologies may include Bluetooth, ZigBee, Wi-Fi, and LoRa.

[0087] The present application does not specifically limit the first user, and may be, for example, a user using the target terminal, or any other user. Furthermore, the present application does not limit the first preset time period, and may be, for example, 1 minute, 5 minutes, etc.

[0088] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner of the present application, in S103 (starting the dehydration function of the washing machine during the period when the dehydration condition is met), the following steps may be included:

[0089] During the dehydration process of the washing machine, the near field communication technology is used to detect whether a second user is within a preset range of the washing machine;

[0090] If it is detected that there is a second user within the preset range of the washing machine, the power of the dehydration function is reduced in units of the first frequency.

[0091] In one embodiment, the present application uses NFC technology to detect whether a user is within the vicinity of the washing machine when the door lock is not opened for a period of time. In another embodiment, the present application also uses NFC technology or other means to detect whether a user is within the vicinity of the washing machine when the washing machine's spin function is activated.

[0092] It is understandable that if a user is detected to be approaching during the operation of the machine, in order to avoid accidental injury when the user opens the machine cover. In the embodiments of the present application, it is necessary to gradually reduce the dehydration speed of the washing machine until it reaches zero.

[0093] Furthermore, the present application does not limit the first frequency. For example, it can be 1 revolution / s or 10 revolutions / s, etc. Similarly, the present application does not limit the second user. For example, it can be the user using the target terminal or any other user.

[0094] Optionally, when the present application detects that there is a second user within the preset range of the washing machine and reduces the power of the dehydration function in units of the first frequency, it may include the following steps:

[0095] Determine that a second user is detected within the preset range of the washing machine, and obtain the biometric parameter of the second user. The biometric parameter corresponds to at least one of the facial feature parameter, iris feature parameter, and fingerprint feature parameter;

[0096] If it is determined that the second user is the target user based on the biometric parameter, reduce the power of the dehydration function in units of the first frequency. The target user is the user who generates the early end instruction using the target terminal.

[0097] Furthermore, after the present application determines that a second user is detected within the preset range of the washing machine, it can first determine whether the second user is the target user using the target terminal. It is understandable that, for example, for a second user who is not the target user using the target terminal, they will not open the washing machine. Therefore, in order to further determine whether the second user is the target user using the target terminal, the present application can further obtain the biometric parameter corresponding to the second user, so as to determine whether it is the target user based on the biometric parameter of this user in the subsequent process.

[0098] Even further, the present application can use the built-in biometric information collection device of the smart device (such as a washing machine or a mobile phone) to verify by collecting the biometric information of the user. It can be one of the facial feature information, iris feature information, and fingerprint feature information of the second user. For example, a camera and / or a fingerprint sensor and other collection devices can be used to collect the biometric information of the target user (that is, at least one of the facial feature information, iris feature information, and fingerprint feature information), and after collecting the corresponding information, send the biometric information to the preset biometric information database and perform one-to-one matching using the preset neural network model. Then determine whether the second user is the target user.

[0099] Among them, the present application does not specifically limit the neural network model. In one way, it can be a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). A convolutional neural network is a type of feedforward neural network that contains convolutional calculations and has a deep structure, and is one of the representative algorithms of deep learning. Further, the convolutional neural network has the ability of feature learning and can perform translation-invariant classification on the input information according to its hierarchical structure.

[0100] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner of the present application, when it is determined that there is a second user within the preset range of the washing machine, reducing the power of the dehydration function in units of the first frequency includes:

[0101] Determine that there is a short-range communication signal sent by a target terminal within the preset range of the washing machine, determine that there is a second user detected within the preset range of the washing machine, and reduce the power of the dehydration function in units of the first frequency.

[0102] In one way, during the process of determining whether there is a user within the surrounding range of the washing machine, it can also be determined by whether the washing machine detects a communication signal sent by the user's mobile phone. It can be understood that when the target user uses the target terminal to operate the washing machine, the target terminal will continuously send short-range communication signals (such as Bluetooth information, infrared signals, etc.).

[0103] Further, after the washing machine receives this signal, it can be determined that the user is approaching the washing machine. Further, in order to avoid the situation of accidental injury when the user opens the lid. In the embodiments of the present application, it is necessary to gradually reduce the dehydration speed of the washing machine until it reaches zero.

[0104] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner of the present application, before S103 (determine that the dehydration condition is met, and start the dehydration function of the washing machine during the period when the dehydration condition is met), the following steps may be included:

[0105] Obtain the attribute information of the object to be washed in the washing machine;

[0106] After determining that the object to be washed is an object that can be dehydrated according to the attribute information, determine that the dehydration condition is met, and start the dehydration function of the washing machine during the period when the dehydration condition is met.

[0107] Further, for some laundry items, the dehydration function is not allowed, such as wool products. In response to this, the present application can, before starting the dehydration function of the washing machine, first obtain the attribute information of the object to be washed in the washing machine and determine whether it is an object to be washed that is allowed to be dehydrated based on this information. It can be understood that only after determining that the object to be washed is an object that can be dehydrated can the dehydration function of the washing machine be started during the period when the dehydration conditions are met.

[0108] Optionally, in a possible implementation manner of the present application, after S101 (obtaining the early end instruction sent by the target terminal), the following steps may be included:

[0109] Detect the time point when the start running instruction sent by the target terminal is received;

[0110] When it is determined that the current time point does not exceed a preset time period from the time point, detect whether the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line.

[0111] Further, before detecting the water level height of the washing machine, the present application can also first determine the current washing machine and the start working time. It can be understood that if the washing machine has been working for a long time, it can be considered that the washing machine has exited the washing and rinsing stage, and thus there is no need to detect again whether the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line.

[0112] Furthermore, as Figure 4 shown, it is a flowchart of the washing machine operation method proposed by the present application. Taking the field of shared washing machines as an example, when a user needs to end the operation program of a shared washing machine in some special situations. At this time, the user operates the early end function of the client, and the client sends the requirement to the main control of the washing machine. The main control judges the water level in the tub and the set water level. If the water level in the tub is higher than the set water level, the drain valve is opened. When it is determined that the water has been drained to the specified water level, the door lock is released (to facilitate the user to take out the clothes).

[0113] In addition, if the water level in the tub of the washing machine is lower than the set water level, there is no drainage directly, and the door lock is released. At this time, if the user opens the door to take the clothes, a door open alarm will sound, and the drainage process will be delayed for 30s, and then the current operation process will end, and the prototype will remain idle; if the user does not open the door, the simple dehydration will continue (the short-time dehydration is to make the clothes taken out by the user not contain too much water). During this process, if the user opens the door, it is considered that the user takes the clothes in advance, so the current operation program is ended in advance, and the shared washing machine is kept in an idle state.

[0114] In this application, after receiving the early termination instruction sent by the target terminal, if it is determined that the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line, the door lock of the washing machine is released, and if it is determined that the dehydration condition is met, the dehydration function of the washing machine is started during the period when the dehydration condition is met. By applying the technical solution of this application, after receiving the early termination operation instruction issued by the user, the current water level height of the washing machine can be automatically detected, and the door lock of the washing machine is opened only when it is determined that the water level height is low, and the dehydration function is turned on when no user is detected near the washing machine. Thus, the purpose of early termination of the operation of the washing machine is achieved.

[0115] In another embodiment of this application, as Figure 5 shown, this application also provides an operating device for a washing machine. Among them, the device includes an acquisition module 201, a determination module 202, and a start module 203. Among them,

[0116] The acquisition module 201 is configured to acquire the early termination instruction sent by the target terminal;

[0117] The determination module 202 is configured to determine that the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line and release the door lock of the washing machine;

[0118] The start module 203 is configured to determine that the dehydration condition is met and start the dehydration function of the washing machine during the period when the dehydration condition is met.

[0119] In this application, after receiving the early termination instruction sent by the target terminal, if it is determined that the water level height of the washing machine is lower than the preset water level line, the door lock of the washing machine is released, and if it is determined that the dehydration condition is met, the dehydration function of the washing machine is started during the period when the dehydration condition is met. By applying the technical solution of this application, after receiving the early termination operation instruction issued by the user, the current water level height of the washing machine can be automatically detected, and the door lock of the washing machine is opened only when it is determined that the water level height is low, and the dehydration function is turned on when no user is detected near the washing machine. Thus, the purpose of early termination of the operation of the washing machine is achieved.

[0120] In another embodiment of this application, the acquisition module 201 further includes:

[0121] The acquisition module 201 is configured to determine that the water level height of the washing machine is not lower than the preset water level line;
