[0002] With the continuous upgrading of consumption levels and the constant advancement of technology, fully automatic intelligent washing machines have become increasingly popular among users. Compared with the first-generation twin-tub washing machines, fully automatic intelligent washing machines not only free up manpower but also provide users with a high-quality laundry experience through intelligent control modes.
[0003] However, even with their high level of intelligence, current fully automatic smart washing machines may still encounter some new problems during use. For example, there is a wide variety of detergents available, and different types may require different amounts. Current smart washing machines cannot automatically adjust the amount of detergent used. If too much detergent is used, there may be insufficient rinsing cycles, resulting in a low rinsing rate. This can leave detergent residue on clothes after the wash cycle, reducing the quality of the wash and affecting the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The first processing module is used to determine the optimal number of rinsing cycles based on the current pH and a preset pH range. The optimal number of rinsing cycles is the number of rinsing cycles required to make the current pH of the rinsing water neutral.
[0030] The second processing module is used to control the washing program to rinse the clothes according to the optimal number of rinses, and when the current pH value is obtained again after the rinsing process is completed and is neutral, to perform the next washing process after the rinsing process until the washing program is completed.

[0055] This application provides a laundry control method, apparatus, equipment, medium, and program product. After the laundry program enters the preset rinsing cycle, the current pH of the rinsing water in the washing tub is acquired through a preset sensor. Then, based on the current pH and a preset pH range, the optimal number of rinsing cycles is determined. The optimal number of rinsing cycles is the number of cycles required to achieve a neutral pH in the rinsing water. Finally, the laundry program is controlled to rinse the clothes according to the optimal number of rinsing cycles. When the current pH is re-acquired after the rinsing cycle and is neutral, the next laundry cycle begins until the laundry program is complete. By determining the optimal number of rinsing cycles based on the current pH and preset pH range of the rinsing water, and completing the laundry program according to the optimal number of rinsing cycles, a rinsing effect with a neutral pH in the rinsing water can be achieved.

[0063] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort, including but not limited to combinations of multiple embodiments, are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0064] The terms “first,” “second,” “third,” “fourth,” etc. (if present) in the specification, claims, and accompanying drawings of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a particular order or sequence. It should be understood that such data can be interchanged where appropriate so that the embodiments of this application described herein can be implemented, for example, in orders other than those illustrated or described herein. Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having,” and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion; for example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that comprises a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units not explicitly listed or inherent to such processes, methods, products, or apparatus.
[0065] Even though current fully automatic smart washing machines have a high level of intelligence, some new problems may still arise during use. For example, there is a wide variety of detergents available, and different types may require different amounts. Current smart washing machines cannot automatically adjust the amount of detergent used. If too much detergent is used, there may be insufficient rinsing cycles, resulting in a low rinsing rate. This can leave detergent residue on clothes after the wash cycle, reducing the quality of the wash and affecting the user experience.
[0066] To address the aforementioned problems in the existing technology, this application provides a laundry control method, apparatus, equipment, medium, and program product. The inventive concept of the laundry control method provided in this application lies in the fact that although detergents come in a wide variety of types, when added to the washing water, they turn the originally neutral washing water into alkaline water. Therefore, the optimal number of rinses can be determined during the rinsing process by detecting the current pH of the rinsing water. Since the optimal number of rinses is the number of rinses required to achieve a neutral pH in the rinsing water, the rinsing effect is based on the current pH of the rinsing water being neutral. This allows the rinsing process to adapt to the detergent dosage, achieving a good rinsing effect, avoiding excessively low rinsing rates, improving laundry quality, and enhancing the user experience.
[0067] The following describes exemplary application scenarios of the embodiments of this application.
[0068] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating an application scenario provided by an embodiment of this application. For example... Figure 1As shown, server 11 and washing machine 12 can communicate to exchange information. The processor in server 11 is configured to execute corresponding computer programs to control various functions of washing machine 12. Server 11 can also be a server cluster, which is not limited in this embodiment. In this exemplary application scenario, the electronic device corresponding to the washing control device provided in this embodiment can be server 11. By executing the washing control method provided in this embodiment, the optimal number of rinses is determined by detecting the current pH of the rinsing water during the rinsing stage. The optimal number of rinses is the number of rinses required to make the current pH of the rinsing water neutral, thereby achieving adaptive control of detergent dosage, achieving good rinsing effect, avoiding excessively low rinsing rate, improving washing quality, and enhancing user experience.
[0069] In addition, the embodiments of this application do not limit the type of washing machine 12. The washing machine 12 can be a top-loading washing machine, a front-loading washing machine, or other types of washing machines.
[0070] It should be noted that the above application scenarios are merely illustrative, and the laundry control method provided in this application includes, but is not limited to, the above application scenarios.
[0071] The technical solution of this application and how the technical solution of this application solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of this application will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0072] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a laundry control method provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 As shown in the embodiments of this application, the laundry control method includes:
[0073] S101: After the washing program enters the preset time of the rinsing process, the current pH level of the rinsing water in the washing tub is obtained through a preset sensor.
[0074] After a certain period of time (the preset time) during the rinsing cycle of the washing program, a built-in preset sensor, such as a pH sensor, detects the current pH of the rinsing water in the washing tub to obtain the current pH level of the rinsing water. The location and number of preset sensors within the washing tub can be set according to actual conditions, and this application embodiment does not limit this.
[0075] In addition, the preset duration can be set according to the duration of the rinsing process. For example, the time corresponding to the preset duration after entering the rinsing process can be the time when the washing program has entered the rinsing process but the rinsing process has not yet ended or is close to ending. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0076] S102: Determine the optimal number of rinses based on the current pH level and the preset pH range.
[0077] The optimal number of rinses is the number of rinses required to achieve a neutral pH in the rinse water.
[0078] After obtaining the current pH level of the rinsing water in the washing tub, the optimal number of rinses is determined by combining it with a pre-set pH range. This optimal number of rinses refers to the number of rinses required to detect a neutral pH level using a pH sensor. The pre-set pH range can be set based on empirical values.
[0079] The current pH level is neutral, meaning the rinse water has a pH of 7 or close to 7. The degree of closeness to 7 can be adjusted based on actual conditions, and this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.
[0080] In one possible design, step S102 could be implemented as follows: Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating another laundry control method provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 As shown, this implementation includes:
[0081] S1021: Compare the current pH with each preset threshold in the preset pH range to obtain the corresponding comparison result.
[0082] Specifically, the preset pH range can be divided according to preset thresholds. For example, each preset threshold includes a first preset threshold and a second preset threshold, thus dividing the preset pH range into three levels. For instance, the first level is less than or equal to the first preset threshold, the second level is greater than the first preset threshold but less than or equal to the second preset threshold, and the third level is greater than the second preset threshold. The specific values of the first and second preset thresholds can be set according to the pH of the water source used in the washing program. For example, the first preset threshold can be set to the pH of the water source or close to it, while the second preset threshold can be set to a value greater than the pH of the water source.
[0083] Typically, the water source for washing is tap water. Assuming the pH of tap water is 7, the first preset threshold value can be set to be close to 7, such as 7±0.5, 7±0.4, etc. The degree to which the first preset threshold value is close to 7 can be set according to the actual situation. Furthermore, since detergent dissolves in neutral water and is alkaline, the second preset threshold value can be set to be close to values that characterize alkalinity, such as 8.5±0.5, 8.5±0.4, 9±0.5, 9±0.4, etc. The degree to which the second preset threshold value is close to 8.5 or 9 can be set according to the actual situation, and this application does not limit this aspect.
[0084] As can be seen from the above description, the value of the first preset threshold can be set to be less than the value of the second preset threshold.
[0085] The current pH level is compared with each preset threshold within the preset pH range to obtain a comparison result. For example, the comparison result can be specifically which of the three levels the current pH level falls into after dividing the preset pH range using the preset thresholds.
[0086] S1022: Generate the optimal number of rinses based on the comparison results.
[0087] For example, after obtaining the comparison results, the optimal number of rinses can be generated based on the comparison results when the current pH level is at different levels.
[0088] Specifically, the current pH level is compared with each preset threshold. If the current pH level is less than or equal to the first preset threshold, that is, the current pH level is in the first level, then the optimal number of rinses is determined to be the first number of rinses.
[0089] Specifically, if the first preset threshold is set to the pH of the water source used for washing (assuming the default pH is neutral), and the current pH is less than or equal to the first preset threshold, it indicates that the current pH of the rinsing water is close to neutral, and the current rinsing process has achieved a good rinsing effect. Therefore, the first rinsing count can be set to 1, meaning the number of rinsing cycles required for the current pH of the rinsing water to be neutral is the current rinsing count. After the current rinsing process is completed, subsequent washing procedures, such as spin-drying, can then be performed.
[0090] If the current pH level is greater than the first preset threshold and less than or equal to the second preset threshold, then the optimal number of rinses is determined to be the second number of rinses. That is, if the current pH level is at the second level, it means that the rinse water is still alkaline and the current rinsing process has not yet achieved a good rinsing effect. Therefore, the second number of rinses can be set to 2 times, 3 times, etc., so that rinsing continues after the current rinsing process ends, in order to ensure a good rinsing effect.
[0091] It's understandable that the second rinse cycle is longer than the first.
[0092] If the current pH level is greater than the second preset threshold, the optimal number of rinses is determined to be the third number of rinses. That is, the current pH level is at the third level, and the current pH level of the rinse water is still far from neutral. More rinses are needed to achieve a good rinsing effect. Therefore, the third number of rinses can be set to a number greater than the second number of rinses. The specific value of the third number of rinses can be set according to the actual working conditions and the specific value of the second number of rinses. This application does not limit this.
[0093] The laundry control method provided in this application sets a preset pH range, compares the current pH with each preset threshold in the preset pH range, and generates the specific number of rinses corresponding to the final rinse number based on the comparison result. The number of rinses required when the current pH of the rinse water is neutral is determined as the optimal number of rinses in the rinsing process, thereby achieving self-adaptation of the rinsing process to the amount of detergent used, and ensuring a good rinsing effect.
[0094] S103: Control the washing program to rinse the clothes according to the optimal number of rinses, and when the current pH value is obtained again after the rinsing process is completed and is neutral, proceed to the next washing process after the rinsing process until the washing program is completed.
[0095] After obtaining the optimal number of rinses, for example, the default number of rinses in the washing program is updated to the optimal number of rinses to control the washing program to rinse the clothes according to the optimal number of rinses. After the rinsing process is completed, the current pH value is re-acquired. When the re-acquired current pH value is neutral, it indicates that the rinsing effect is thorough. At this time, the next washing process after the rinsing process is entered to complete the washing program.
[0096] The laundry control method provided in this application first obtains the current pH of the rinsing water in the washing tub through a preset sensor after the laundry program has entered the preset rinsing cycle for a preset time. Then, based on the current pH and a preset pH range, the optimal number of rinsing cycles is determined. The optimal number of rinsing cycles is the number of rinsing cycles required to achieve a neutral pH in the rinsing water. Finally, the laundry program is controlled to rinse the clothes according to the optimal number of rinsing cycles. When the current pH is re-obtained after the rinsing cycle ends and is neutral, the rinsing cycle ends, and the next laundry cycle begins to complete the laundry program. By determining the optimal number of rinsing cycles based on the current pH and preset pH range of the rinsing water, and then rinsing the clothes according to the optimal number of rinsing cycles, a rinsing effect with a neutral pH in the rinsing water is achieved. This enables adaptive control of detergent dosage, avoids excessively low rinsing rates, improves laundry quality, and enhances the user experience.
[0097] Figure 4This is a schematic flowchart illustrating another laundry control method provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 As shown, the embodiments of this application include:
[0098] S201: After the washing program enters the preset time of the rinsing process, the current pH level of the rinsing water in the washing tub is obtained through a preset sensor.
[0099] S202: Determine the optimal number of rinses based on the current pH level and the preset pH range.
[0100] The optimal number of rinses is the number of rinses required to achieve a neutral pH in the rinse water.
[0101] The implementation method, principle, and technical effect of steps S201 to S202 are as follows: Figure 2 The implementation methods, principles and technical effects of steps S101 to S102 in the illustrated embodiment are similar. For details, please refer to the foregoing detailed description, which will not be repeated here.
[0102] S203: Obtain the number of rinses completed in the rinsing process.
[0103] S204: Generate a prompt message based on the number of rinsing cycles completed and the optimal number of rinsing cycles.
[0104] S205: Send a prompt message to the user terminal so that the user can determine whether to perform the rinsing process according to the optimal number of rinsing cycles based on the prompt message.
[0105] Once the optimal number of rinses is determined, the number of rinses completed in the current rinsing process of the laundry program is obtained, and a prompt message is generated to remind the user based on the last number of rinses. This allows the user to decide whether to continue the rinsing process according to the optimal number of rinses, thereby increasing the user's autonomy in the laundry control process.
[0106] For example, if the number of rinses completed exceeds the preset maximum number of rinses, and the optimal number of rinses determined based on the current pH level is greater than zero, it indicates that the current rinsing process has reached the preset maximum number of rinses, but the current pH level in the rinse water is not yet neutral, and detergent may still be attached to the clothes. Therefore, the current rinsing effect has not achieved the preset effect. A prompt message can be generated and sent to the user terminal, allowing the user to choose whether to continue the rinsing process according to the optimal number of rinses. It is understood that the user terminal is the corresponding terminal that is bound and authenticated to the washing machine executing the washing control method.
[0107] Optionally, the prompt information includes the operating status of a preset sensor, which indicates whether the sensor has detected any abnormalities. The prompt information also includes current washing status data, which includes at least the current pH level, the number of rinses completed, and other relevant parameters that characterize the current washing situation. This allows the user to determine whether to continue the rinsing process according to the optimal number of rinses based on the prompt information.
[0108] For example, if the working status of the preset sensor in the prompt message is abnormal, it indicates that the current pH of the rinse water detected by the preset sensor may be incorrect, which will cause the determined optimal number of rinses to be abnormal. At this time, the user can choose not to follow the optimal number of rinses for the rinsing process. The user can issue a termination command through the user terminal to end the rinsing process, and thus execute step S206.
[0109] S206: If not, terminate the rinsing process according to the termination command issued by the user terminal.
[0110] When the preset sensor in the prompt message indicates normal operation, even if the number of rinses completed exceeds the maximum number of rinses and the optimal number of rinses is also greater than zero, additional rinses may be needed due to the clothes being washed or other reasons. Therefore, the user can decide whether to proceed with the rinsing process according to the determined optimal number of rinses after receiving the current washing status data from the prompt message. For example, if the user decides to proceed with the rinsing process according to the determined optimal number of rinses, the user can issue a confirmation command through the user terminal, i.e., execute step S206.
[0111] S207: If so, control the washing program to rinse the clothes according to the optimal number of rinses based on the confirmation command issued by the user terminal.
[0112] S208: When the current pH value is obtained again after the rinsing process is completed and is neutral, proceed to the next washing process after the rinsing process until the washing program is completed.
[0113] The specific implementation method, principle, and technical effects of step S208 are as follows: Figure 2 The specific implementation, principle, and technical effect of step S103 in the illustrated embodiment are similar. For details, please refer to the foregoing detailed description, which will not be repeated here.
[0114] The laundry control method provided in this application, before controlling the laundry program to rinse clothes according to the optimal number of rinses, obtains the number of rinsing cycles already completed in the rinsing process. Based on the completed rinsing cycles and the optimal number of rinsing cycles, a prompt message is generated and sent to the user terminal, allowing the user to choose whether to perform the rinsing process according to the optimal number of rinsing cycles. This not only prevents erroneous control due to abnormal operation of preset sensors causing rinsing according to the optimal number of rinsing cycles, but also introduces user autonomy. This allows the laundry control method provided in this application to achieve adaptive detergent dosage to avoid excessively low rinsing rates, improve laundry quality and enhance the user experience, while also improving the intelligent interaction between the washing machine and the user.
