Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of dishwashers, and in particular to a control method and device for a dishwasher. Background Art

[0002] The emergence of dishwashers has greatly reduced the burden of kitchen labor for people, but in actual use, due to the different number of dishes, the washing effect under the same washing mode is different. When there are too few dishes, it is easy to waste resources, and when there are too many dishes, the cleaning effect is not ideal.

[0003] In traditional solutions, the number of tableware is mainly determined based on its weight. However, the weight of different tableware styles varies greatly. For example, the weight of plastic tableware of the same volume is significantly less than that of metal tableware of the same volume, resulting in a large error in the judgment of the number of tableware. In order to solve this problem, a solution has also emerged that uses a camera to identify the number of tableware in the dishwasher to determine the washing parameters. However, when there are many tableware, installing a camera can only capture images at a fixed angle, making it difficult to accurately identify obscured tableware, resulting in inaccurate detection results that affect the washing effect; installing multiple cameras can enhance the image recognition effect, but the overall cost is high. Summary of the invention

[0004] The embodiments of the present application provide a method and device for controlling a dishwasher, which can solve the technical problem of how to more conveniently identify the number of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher.

[0005] In the first aspect, the embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling a dishwasher, including: obtaining the water pressure difference between the static water pressure and the operating water pressure in the dishwasher; determining the number level of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher according to the water pressure difference; determining the washing parameters of the dishwasher according to the number level; and controlling the dishwasher to perform washing according to the washing parameters. The number of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher can be quickly inferred from the water pressure difference, so that the washing parameters can be adjusted accordingly to ensure the washing effect of dishes of different numbers and levels.

[0006] In one embodiment, determining the quantity level of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher according to the water pressure difference includes: determining the water pressure level corresponding to the water pressure difference according to the water pressure difference; and determining the quantity level according to the water pressure level.

[0007] In one embodiment, the washing parameters include at least one of the washing water volume, detergent dosage, washing time, or drying time.

Reducing the values ​​of the washing parameters when the number of dishes is small can save resources such as water and electricity while ensuring the washing effect.

[0009] In one embodiment, when the quantity level is the second level, at least one of the following operations is performed: increasing the amount of washing water, increasing the amount of detergent, extending the washing time, or extending the drying time. The number of dishes to be washed corresponding to the second level is greater than the number of dishes to be washed corresponding to the standard level. The washing effect of the dishwasher can be ensured by adjusting the value of the washing parameter to match the tableware quantity level.

[0010] In one embodiment, the above-mentioned controlling the dishwasher to perform washing according to the washing parameters includes: determining a washing mode of the dishwasher according to the washing parameters, the washing mode being a small amount mode, a standard mode or a large amount mode; and controlling the dishwasher to perform washing according to the washing mode. Differentiating between different washing modes can facilitate users to select corresponding washing programs.

[0011] In one embodiment, the method further includes: when the water pressure level is an abnormal water pressure level, determining that the dishwasher is in an abnormal state.

[0012] In one embodiment, the method further includes: issuing an alarm during and / or after the operation of the dishwasher, the alarm being used to remind the user that the dishwasher is in an abnormal state. The alarm reminder in the abnormal state can facilitate the user to grasp the operating state of the dishwasher in real time.

[0013] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a dishwasher device, which has the function of implementing the method in the first aspect or any possible implementation thereof.

[0017] The control unit is used to control the dishwasher to perform washing work according to washing parameters.

[0018] In a third aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a dishwasher device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, the method of any one of the implementation modes of the first aspect or the second aspect is implemented.

[0019] In a fourth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a computer-readable storage medium. The computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program, and when the computer program is executed by a processor, the method of the implementation manner of the first aspect is implemented.

[0020] In a fifth aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a computer program product. When the computer program product is run on a dishwasher device, the dishwasher device executes the method of the implementation manner of the first aspect above.

[0030] In order to illustrate the technical solution of the present application, specific embodiments are provided below.

[0031] The dishwasher can select different washing modes when it is running, and then control the washing process of the dishwasher according to the washing mode, so as to wash the dishes placed therein. Depending on the number of dishes, the washing mode adopted should also be different.

[0032] In traditional solutions, dishwashers often use quality inspection, that is, the weight of tableware to determine the number of plates, but the weight of tableware of different materials is not consistent, so the detection accuracy of this detection method is poor. Another solution is to determine the number of tableware through image recognition, but this solution requires the installation of a high-temperature resistant camera, and the image processing calculation method is difficult and the implementation process is complicated. It has high requirements on the hardware of the dishwasher itself, resulting in a high overall cost of the dishwasher, which is not conducive to application.

[0033] In response to the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a method for controlling a dishwasher, which mainly calculates the water pressure difference when the dishwasher is stationary and when it is running to reversely infer the number of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher, thereby determining the washing parameters of the dishwasher, and then controlling the washing process through the washing parameters.

[0034] Combine the following Figure 1 To explain the specific process. Figure 1 The figure is a flow chart of a control method of a dishwasher. Figure 1 As shown,

[0035] S1, obtaining the water pressure difference between the static water pressure and the operating water pressure in the dishwasher.

[0036] Static water pressure refers to the water pressure value detected when the dishwasher is in a static state after a certain period of time after the dishwasher has been filled with water. It is expressed in Pa. 静止 To express.

[0037] The operating water pressure refers to the water pressure value detected when the dishwasher is in a stable state after a period of time after the washing process starts, expressed in Pa. 运行 To express.

[0038] The water pressure difference refers to the difference between the static water pressure and the operating water pressure, expressed as ΔPa, that is, ΔPa=Pa static-Pa operating.

[0039] The above water pressure value can be detected by a water level / water pressure sensor installed inside the dishwasher. Generally, the higher the water level inside the dishwasher, the greater the detected water pressure value; the greater the height difference of the water level before and after operation, the greater the water pressure difference value obtained.

[0040] The water level / water pressure sensor can be installed on the side wall of the dishwasher cavity, or on the bottom of the dishwasher cavity. There can be one or more water level / water pressure sensors. The number and installation position of the water level / water pressure sensors can be set according to actual conditions and are not limited here.

[0041] In one example, the static water pressure is the water pressure value measured after the dishwasher has been stationary for 3 seconds after the water has been completely filled.

[0042] In one example, the operating water pressure is a water pressure value measured after the dishwasher washes for 30 seconds.

[0043] S2, determining the quantity level of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher according to the water pressure difference.

[0044] During the washing process, since there are various dishes in the inner tank of the dishwasher, the water sprayed on the surface of the dishes is blocked when it flows back, which causes the water pressure in the inner cavity of the dishwasher to become low. Generally, the more dishes there are, the slower the water returns, the less water there is in the inner cavity of the dishwasher, and the lower the detected water pressure. Therefore, as long as the water pressure difference between static and running is obtained, the number of dishes to be washed can be calculated.

[0045] In one example, as the number of dishes to be washed increases, the water pressure values ​​detected in the dishwasher can be represented by the following Table 1.

[0046] As shown in Table 1, assuming that the amount of water taken in by the dishwasher during a dishwashing process is 4L,

[0047] The static water pressure detected after 3 seconds of stillness is 1.13 kpa;

[0048] After 30 seconds of washing, the water pressure detected was 0.93 kpa.

[0049] The operating water pressure detected after washing the three sets of tableware for 30 seconds was 0.89 kpa;

[0050] After washing 8 sets of tableware for 30 seconds, the operating water pressure was detected to be 0.83 kpa;

[0051] The operating water pressure detected after washing 12 sets of tableware for 30 seconds was 0.73 kpa.

[0052] Table 1

[0053]

[0054] In combination with Table 1, the quantity level of dishes to be washed corresponding to the water pressure difference can be expressed by Table 2.

[0055] Table 2

[0056] Water pressure difference ΔPa Number of tableware Quantity level 0.20kpa~0.23kpa 0~3 sets First level 0.23kpa~0.29kpa 3~8 sets Standard Grade 0.29kpa~0.39kpa 8~12 sets Second level

[0057] As shown in Table 2, when the water pressure difference is in the range of 0.20 kpa to 0.23 kpa, the corresponding quantity level is the first level, and the number of tableware is 0 to 3 sets;

[0058] When the water pressure difference is within the range of 0.23kpa to 0.29kpa, the corresponding quantity level is the standard level, and the number of tableware is 3 to 8 sets;

[0059] When the water pressure difference is within the range of 0.29 kpa to 0.39 kpa, the corresponding quantity level is the second level, and the number of tableware is 8 to 12 sets.

[0060] The number of tableware sets corresponding to the above standard levels can be set according to actual conditions. This is just an example and not a limitation.

[0061] S3, determining washing parameters of the dishwasher according to the quantity level.

[0062] Washing parameters can be understood as various control factors for the washing program set inside the dishwasher, usually including one or more of the amount of washing water, amount of detergent, washing time, and drying time. This is just an example and is not limited. Other control factors related to the washing process can be selected as washing parameters according to actual conditions.

[0063] Because the same washing parameters cannot meet the washing needs of all quantities and levels of tableware, the washing parameters should be adjusted accordingly according to the different quantities and levels of tableware during washing to ensure the washing effect.

[0064] Table 3

[0065] Number of tableware Quantity level Washing parameters 0~3 sets First level reduce 3~8 sets Standard Grade No change 8~12 sets Second level Increase

[0066] As shown in Table 3, assuming that 3 to 8 sets of tableware are the standard level, the method for adjusting the washing parameters is as follows:

[0067] When the quantity level is the first level, the value of the washing parameter is reduced;

[0068] When the quantity level is the standard level, the values ​​of the washing parameters are not changed;

[0069] When the quantity level is the second level, the numerical value of the washing parameter is increased.

[0070] The quantity level used as the standard here can be set according to actual conditions. This is just an example and not a limitation.

[0071] S4, controlling the dishwasher to perform washing according to the washing parameters.

[0072] After the values ​​of the washing parameters are adjusted, the controller of the dishwasher runs the washing program according to the adjusted washing parameters, thereby ensuring the washing effect of tableware of different numbers and grades.

[0073] In addition, the above-mentioned quantity level can be determined by water pressure level in addition to being determined by water pressure difference.

[0074] Figure 2 Can be seen as Figure 1 A specific example of the method described in step S2. Figure 2 It is a flow chart of another method for controlling a dishwasher provided in one embodiment of the present application.

[0075] like Figure 2 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0076] S21, determining a corresponding water pressure level according to the water pressure difference.

[0077] The current water pressure level inside the dishwasher is determined based on the calculated water pressure difference. Different ranges of water pressure difference correspond to different water pressure levels. As shown in Table 4,

[0078] Table 4

[0079] Water pressure difference ΔPa Water pressure level 0.20kpa~0.23kpa Level I 0.23kpa~0.29kpa Level II 0.29kpa~0.39kpa Level III

[0080] When the water pressure difference is within the range of 0.20kpa to 0.23kpa, the water pressure level is I;

[0081] When the water pressure difference is within the range of 0.23kpa to 0.29kpa, the water pressure level is II;

[0082] When the water pressure difference is within the range of 0.29kpa to 0.39kpa, the water pressure level is III.

[0083] The water pressure level can be evaluated from low to high according to the numerical range of the water pressure difference, and can also be rated from high to low. This is just an example and is not limited.

[0084] S22, determining the quantity level of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher according to the water pressure level.

[0085] Combining the above content with Table 5, we can intuitively see the relationship between the water pressure level and the number of dishes to be washed.

[0086] Table 5

[0087] Water pressure level Quantity level Level I First level Level II Standard Grade Level III Second level

[0088] As shown in Table 5,

[0089] The number of dishes to be washed corresponding to water pressure level I is the first level;

[0090] The number of dishes to be washed corresponding to water pressure level II is the standard level;

[0091] The quantity level of dishes to be washed corresponding to water pressure level III is the second level.

[0092] Once you know the quantity and level of dishes to be washed, you can adjust the washing parameters accordingly.

[0093] Figure 3 A schematic flow chart of another method for controlling a dishwasher provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 Can be seen as Figure 1 A specific example of the method described in step S3 in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0094] S31, when the quantity level is the first level, performing at least one of the following operations: reducing the amount of washing water, reducing the amount of detergent, shortening the washing time, or shortening the drying time.

[0095] The number of dishes to be washed corresponding to the first level is less than the number of dishes to be washed corresponding to the standard level. At this time, the number of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher is small. Accordingly, the values ​​of the washing parameters should be reduced, that is, the amount of washing water, the amount of detergent, the washing time, and the drying time should be shortened.

[0096] Combined with the contents of Table 1, taking the number of 3 sets of tableware to be washed as an example, the number of tableware is relatively small at this time. Compared with the initial water volume of 4.0L during rinsing, the amount of washing water can be reduced to 3.0L, the amount of detergent used is reduced to half the capacity of the dispenser tank, the washing time is shortened to 60min, and the drying time is shortened to 30min.

[0097] The washing parameters here are just examples. There is no limit on the values ​​of the washing parameters at the first level and they can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0098] S32: When the quantity level is the standard level, the washing parameters are not changed.

[0099] At this time, the quantity of dishes meets the requirements of the washing state, and there is no need to change the values ​​of the washing parameters, and washing can be carried out directly.

[0100] Combined with the contents of Table 1, taking the number of dishes to be washed as 8 sets as an example, the initial setting of the washing water volume is 3.5L, the detergent usage is the capacity of a dispenser tank, the washing time is 70min, and the drying time is 45min.

[0101] The washing parameters here are just examples. There is no limit on the values ​​of the washing parameters under the standard level and they can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0102] S33, when the quantity level is the second level, performing at least one of the following operations: increasing the amount of washing water, increasing the amount of detergent, extending the washing time, or extending the drying time.

[0103] The number of dishes to be washed corresponding to the second level is greater than the number of dishes to be washed corresponding to the standard level. At this time, the number of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher is large. Accordingly, the values ​​of the washing parameters should be increased, that is, the amount of washing water, the amount of detergent, the washing time, and the drying time should be extended.

[0104] Combined with the contents of Table 1, taking the case where the number of dishes to be washed is 12 sets as an example, the number of dishes is relatively large at this time, 4L of water is required for rinsing, the amount of detergent used is the capacity of two feeding tanks, the washing time is 100min, and the drying time is 60min.

[0105] The values ​​of the washing parameters here are just examples and can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0106] After determining the washing parameters, the washing mode of the dishwasher can be obtained, and the washing mode can also be used to control the dishwasher to perform washing work.

[0107] Figure 4 A schematic flow chart of another method for controlling a dishwasher provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 Can be seen as Figure 1 A specific example of the method described in step S4 in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0108] S41, determining a washing mode of the dishwasher according to the washing parameters.

[0109] As shown in Table 6, the washing mode is classified into a small amount mode, a standard mode or a large amount mode.

[0110] When the value of the washing parameter decreases, the washing mode is determined to be a small amount mode;

[0111] When the value of the washing parameter remains unchanged, the washing mode is determined to be the standard mode;

[0112] When the value of the washing parameter increases, it is determined that the washing mode is the multi-volume mode.

[0113] Table 6

[0114] Washing parameters Washing mode reduce Small amount of mode No change Standard Mode Increase Multi-volume mode

[0115] S42, controlling the dishwasher to perform washing according to the washing mode.

[0116] When washing dishes, users can select the corresponding washing mode to set the dishwashing process.

[0117] Figure 5 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of another method for controlling a dishwasher provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0118] S5, when the water pressure level is an abnormal water pressure level, it is determined that the dishwasher is in an abnormal state.

[0119] The abnormal water pressure level refers to the level corresponding to the abnormal water pressure state, which can also be understood as the level corresponding to the water pressure being in a state other than the static state and the running state.

[0120] An abnormal state is a state in which the water pressure in the dishwasher is outside of a static state and / or an operating state.

[0121] There are two types of abnormal conditions: one is that the spray arm of the dishwasher cannot move normally, and the other is that the spray arm of the dishwasher cannot spray water normally.

[0122] The water pressure value can be detected to determine whether the dishwasher is in an abnormal state. As shown in Table 7,

[0123] When the water pressure difference is 0kpa~0.08kpa, the water pressure abnormality level is abnormality level I, indicating that the spray arm cannot spray water normally.

[0124] When the water pressure difference is within the range of 0.08kpa to 0.20kpa, the water pressure abnormality level is abnormality level II, indicating that the spray arm cannot rotate normally;

[0125] Table 7

[0126] Water pressure difference ΔPa Abnormal water pressure level Abnormal status 0kpa~0.08kpa Abnormal Level I The spray arm does not spray water properly 0.08kpa~0.20kpa Abnormal Level II The spray arm cannot rotate normally

[0127] S6, issuing a warning during and / or after the operation of the dishwasher.

[0128] This warning is used to remind the user that the dishwasher is in an abnormal state. The user can check the status of the dishwasher after receiving the warning. However, this warning does not necessarily stop the operation process of the dishwasher. The user can choose whether to stop the dishwashing process according to the actual situation.

[0129] Based on the above content and the following Table 8, we can know the relationship between the water pressure difference and the quantity level, washing parameters, washing mode and abnormal state:

[0130] When the water pressure difference is 0kpa~0.08kpa, the spray arm cannot spray water normally;

[0131] When the water pressure difference is 0.08kpa~0.20kpa, the spray arm cannot rotate normally;

[0132] When the water pressure difference is 0.20 kpa to 0.23 kpa, the number of dishes to be washed is at the first level, the value of the washing parameter is reduced, and the washing mode is a small amount mode;

[0133] When the water pressure difference is 0.23kpa to 0.29kpa, the number of dishes to be washed is at the standard level, the value of the washing parameter remains unchanged, and the washing mode is the standard mode;

[0134] When the water pressure difference is between 0.29 kpa and 0.39 kpa, the quantity level of the dishes to be washed is the second level, the value of the washing parameter increases, and the washing mode is the multi-quantity mode.

[0135] Table 8

[0136]

[0137] The above method for determining the quantity level and washing parameters can be combined with the following Figure 6 To express. Figure 6 It is a schematic diagram of the stages of a method for controlling a dishwasher provided in one embodiment of the present application.

[0138] like Figure 6 As shown, the method can be divided into five stages: A, B, C, D, and E.

[0139] The AB phase corresponds to the content of obtaining the static water pressure and operating water pressure in the dishwasher in step S1. Figure 6 It can be seen intuitively that the water level during operation is lower than that during stillness. The water level / water pressure sensor can detect the water pressure value at this time.

[0140] In the BC stage, corresponding to the content of obtaining the water pressure difference between the static water pressure and the operating water pressure in step S1, the water pressure difference can be calculated through the difference in water levels before and after and the detection of the water level / water pressure sensor.

[0141] The CD stage corresponds to the content of determining the number and level of dishes to be washed in the dishwasher according to the water pressure difference in step S2. Figure 6 As shown, at this time, the number of dishes to be washed is one set, and the corresponding quantity level is the first level.

[0142] In the DE stage, the washing parameters of the dishwasher are determined according to the quantity level in step S3. When the quantity level is the first level, the value of the washing parameter should be reduced, and the corresponding washing mode is the small amount mode.

[0143] The dishwasher can then perform washing work according to the determined washing parameters.

[0144] The above mainly introduces a control method for a dishwasher according to an embodiment of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
