[0050] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0051] 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.

[0052] The application scenarios of the embodiments of this application are explained below:

[0053] Figure 1 An application scenario diagram of the method for determining the washing method provided in the embodiments of this application is shown, such as... Figure 1 As shown, when a user takes clothes out of the wardrobe 110 and wears them, and then eats food taken out of the refrigerator 130, if stains are generated at this time, the user needs to select the washing mode of the washing machine 120 and wash the food.

[0054] In existing technologies, users can manually select the washing method and perform the washing process.

[0055] However, the existing methods for determining washing methods have two problems. First, when users have little knowledge about washing clothes, they cannot accurately select the washing method corresponding to the clothes or stains, resulting in poor washing results. Second, the process of users manually selecting the method is cumbersome and inefficient.

[0056] To address the aforementioned issues, the main concept of the washing method for determining the washing mode provided in this application is as follows: In scenarios where clothes are taken out of the wardrobe and worn, and food is taken out of the refrigerator and consumed, the wardrobe and refrigerator respectively send the clothing information and stain information to the washing machine, enabling the washing machine to automatically determine the washing mode without requiring manual selection by the user. Furthermore, the recommended washing mode matches the clothing information and stain information, providing the user with a more intelligent washing experience.

[0057] Figure 2This is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining a washing mode according to an embodiment of this application. This method is applied to a washing machine, and can also be applied to third-party devices, such as smart speakers. After determining the washing mode, the third-party device sends the washing mode to the washing machine. Figure 2 As shown, the method for determining this washing method includes the following steps:

[0058] Step S201: Receive clothing information of the target clothing sent by the wardrobe; the target clothing is clothing that the user takes out of the wardrobe and wears.

[0059] Among them, the wardrobe is a smart wardrobe set up in the bedroom or dressing room. There can be one or more wardrobes. When there are multiple wardrobes, each wardrobe needs to send clothing information for its own target clothing.

[0060] The target clothing refers to the clothing that the user takes out of the wardrobe and wears. When the wardrobe determines that the user is wearing a certain piece of clothing, it can obtain the corresponding clothing information, which includes at least one of the following: clothing color, clothing material, and clothing type.

[0061] Specifically, the wardrobe can have an input module and a data storage module, allowing users to store clothing information in the data storage module through the input module.

[0062] Furthermore, the wardrobe may also include an identification module. When a user places clothes in the wardrobe, the identification module (such as an RFID reader) identifies the graphic code (such as a barcode and QR code) of the clothes, obtains the clothing information, and sends the clothing information to the data storage module for storage.

[0063] Specifically, it's necessary to determine that the target clothing is clothing that the user took out of the wardrobe and is wearing, so that the washing method can be determined based on the clothing information sent by the wardrobe. Once it's confirmed that the user is wearing the target clothing, the clothing information of the target clothing can be obtained. One implementation method is to obtain an image of the target clothing and query the database for clothing information corresponding to the clothing in the image.

[0064] Furthermore, the wardrobe can send clothing information to third-party devices or washing machines. The wardrobe can include communication modules, such as wireless communication modules like Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, or wired communication modules. Similarly, the third-party devices or washing machines can also include communication modules, thereby establishing a connection between the wardrobe and the washing machine or third-party device, and thus sending clothing information to the washing machine or third-party device.

[0065] Step S202: Receive stain information sent by the refrigerator corresponding to the target food; the target food is a preset type of food taken out by the user from the refrigerator.

[0066] Among them, the refrigerator is a smart refrigerator installed in the kitchen or living room, and there is no limit to the number of refrigerators.

[0067] When it is determined that a user has removed food from the refrigerator, and that the food is a preset type, the corresponding stain information should be obtained. The preset type of food can be ready-to-eat food. Ready-to-eat food refers to food that can be eaten directly after opening the packaging without any additional processing, such as ice cream, jam, fruit, fried food, and beverages such as alcohol, coffee, tea, and cola. The stain information includes the names of various stains, such as oil stains, fruit stains, wine stains, coffee stains, and tea stains.

[0068] Specifically, the refrigerator can have an input module and a data storage module, allowing users to store stain information corresponding to food items in the data storage module via the input module.

[0069] Furthermore, the refrigerator can also be equipped with a recognition module. When a user places food inside the refrigerator, it can scan the food's graphic code to obtain food information and automatically generate stain information corresponding to that information. For example, if the recognized food is fried, the corresponding stain information will be oil stain.

[0070] In addition, it is necessary to determine whether the user has taken out a preset type of food from the refrigerator so that the washing method can be determined based on the stain information sent by the refrigerator.

[0071] In addition, like wardrobes, refrigerators also need to have a communication module. The specific implementation method is the same as that of wardrobes, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0072] Step S203: Within a preset time for retrieving the target food, when a user's instruction to wash the target clothing is received, a washing method is generated based on the clothing information and stain information.

[0073] Here, the preset time refers to the time it takes for the user to take the target food out of the refrigerator and finish eating it.

[0074] Different preset times can be set according to different user habits. For example, if users usually take food out of the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature before eating, a longer preset time, such as 3 hours, can be set; if users usually take food out of the refrigerator and eat it directly, a shorter preset time, such as half an hour, can be set.

[0075] Alternatively, different preset times can be set depending on the type of food the user is taking out. For example, if the target food is an easily melted food such as ice cream, a shorter preset time can be set; if the target food is a non-easily melted food such as fruit, a longer preset time can be set.

[0076] The trigger condition for generating a washing mode is as follows: First, a user's instruction to wash clothes is received, such as recognizing that the user has opened the washing machine door, or detecting a voice command from the user indicating that they need to wash clothes. Then, the relationship between the time it takes to remove the food and the preset time is determined. If the time it takes to remove the food is less than the preset time, it means that the user may have eaten the target food and caused stains on the target clothing. At this point, a washing mode can be generated based on the clothing information and stain information, and the target clothing can be washed according to the washing mode.

[0077] In addition, to further ensure that the generated washing method matches the clothing information and stain information, a prompt message can be generated before starting the washing machine. The prompt message is used to remind the user that the washing method is based on the clothing information of the target garment and the stain information of the food being removed.

[0078] When generating washing methods based on clothing and stain information, different washing methods can be generated due to differences in clothing and / or stain information. Even within the same washing method, washing parameters will change depending on the clothing or stain information.

[0079] Optionally, receive clothing information of the target clothing sent by the wardrobe, including:

[0080] The wardrobe receives clothing information of the target clothing sent by the first sending device; the clothing information is the clothing information sent by the wardrobe after receiving the user's instruction to take out the target clothing and determining through the camera device that the user is wearing the target clothing.

[0081] In addition, a first sending module needs to be set up on the wardrobe, which sends clothing information through the communication module.

[0082] The trigger condition for sending clothing information is: confirming that the user is wearing the target clothing. One possible approach is to receive a user's instruction to retrieve the target clothing. At this point, the wardrobe can indicate the storage location of the target clothing to the user, or transport the target clothing to the user and activate the camera to capture an image of the clothing the user is ultimately wearing. If the clothing being worn is the target clothing, then the clothing information of the target clothing can be sent to the washing machine or a third-party device.

[0083] By determining the target clothing worn by the user, and then sending the clothing information of the target clothing, the determined washing method corresponds to the clothing actually washed by the user.

[0084] Optionally, receive stain information sent by the refrigerator corresponding to the target food, including:

[0085] The refrigerator receives stain information corresponding to the target food through a second transmitting device; the stain information is sent by the refrigerator after determining that the user's action type is to take out the target food; the action type is determined based on the image of the user's action process on the target food.

[0086] In addition, a second transmitting device needs to be installed on the refrigerator, which transmits stain information through a communication module.

[0087] The trigger condition for sending stain information is determining that the user has removed the target food item. One possible approach is to use a camera device to capture multiple images of the user during the period from opening to closing the refrigerator door. Based on these images, the user's actions regarding the target food item are determined. If the user does not have the target food item in their hand when opening the refrigerator door, but does have it when closing it, then the user's action type can be determined as removing the target food item. After confirming that the user has removed the target food item, the corresponding stain information is sent to the washing machine or a third-party device.

[0088] By determining when the user takes out the target food item, and then sending the stain information corresponding to the target food item, the determined washing method corresponds to the stain on the user's actual clothes being washed.

[0089] In this embodiment of the invention, the wardrobe sends information about the user's clothing and the refrigerator sends information about stains corresponding to the food the user is consuming to the washing machine or a third-party device. When the washing machine or third-party device determines that the user needs to do laundry within a preset time, it can automatically generate a washing method based on the clothing and stain information. Through the linkage between the refrigerator, wardrobe, and washing machine, a high degree of matching between the washing method and the clothing and stain information is achieved, resulting in better washing performance. Furthermore, the user does not need to manually select a washing method, making the operation simple and convenient, thus improving the user experience. The wardrobe's ability to determine when the user takes out and puts on clothing, and the refrigerator's ability to determine when the user takes out the target food, further ensures the relationship between the user's washed clothing and stains and the target clothing and food, improving the accuracy of the recommended washing method.

[0090] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of a method for determining a washing method according to another embodiment of this application. This embodiment is... Figure 2 Based on the illustrated embodiment, step S203 is further refined. For example... Figure 3 As shown, the method for determining the washing method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0091] Step S301: Receive clothing information of the target clothing sent by the wardrobe.

[0092] Step S302: Receive stain information corresponding to the target food sent by the refrigerator.

[0093] The specific implementation methods of steps S301 and S302 are the same as those of steps S201 and S202 in the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0094] Step S303: Determine the stain type based on the stain information; the stain type includes regular stains and non-regular stains.

[0095] After identifying the stain information, the stains can be categorized into regular stains and unregular stains. Regular stains are those that can be cleaned using standard washing methods; these are easily cleanable stains. Examples include wine stains, coffee stains, and tea stains. Unregular stains are those that cannot be cleaned using standard washing methods alone. Examples include oil stains and fruit stains.

[0096] The names and types of stains are not specifically defined here.

[0097] Step S304: Generate a washing method based on the type of stain.

[0098] After determining the type of stain, the washing method can be further determined. Different types of stains require different washing methods to achieve better washing results.

[0099] Optionally, the washing method includes: a regular washing method and / or an intensive washing method; the washing method is generated according to the type of stain, including:

[0100] When the identified stain type is a regular stain, the washing method is determined to be a regular washing method; and / or,

[0101] When the identified stain type is an unconventional stain, the washing method is determined to be to first wash the target garment using an intensive washing method and then using a regular washing method.

[0102] When the identified stain type is a regular stain, it is relatively easy to clean and can be cleaned using a regular washing method. A regular washing method refers to washing directly with a regular detergent under defined washing parameters.

[0103] The washing parameters can be determined using the clothing information.

[0104] Specifically, determine the washing machine's spin speed and washing temperature based on the material of the clothes. For example, when the clothes are made of silk, wool, or similar materials, set a lower spin speed, such as 600 rpm or 800 rpm. When the clothes are made of materials other than those mentioned above, set a higher spin speed, such as 1000 rpm or 1200 rpm, so that the clothes can be dried in a shorter time.

[0105] In addition, the washing temperature can be adjusted again according to the color of the clothes. When the washing temperature determined by the color of the clothes is lower than the washing temperature determined by the material of the clothes, the washing temperature determined by the color of the clothes will be used as the final washing temperature to prevent clothes that are prone to fading from fading from fading at higher water temperatures.

[0106] You can also determine whether sterilization and disinfection are necessary based on the type of clothing. For example, sterilization and disinfection can be performed on baby clothes or elderly people's clothes.

[0107] The washing time can also be determined based on the garment's wearing time, which is the time difference between when the washing machine determines that the user is wearing the target garment and when the user puts the target garment into the washing machine. If the garment's wearing time is longer, the washing time will be increased; if the garment's wearing time is shorter, the washing time will be decreased.

[0108] When clothing has unusual stains, a combination of intensive and regular washing methods can be used.

[0109] For unusual stains, regular washing methods and detergents cannot completely remove them. Therefore, an intensive wash cycle can be used to treat the stains first. An intensive wash cycle involves soaking and washing the garment with a pre-set detergent. This pre-set detergent is an ingredient that can dissolve unusual stains and can be liquid, powder, paste, or solid.

[0110] Different preset detergents can be set for different types of unconventional stains. For example, for oil stains, the corresponding detergents are warm salt water, flour paste, or dish soap; for fruit stains, the corresponding preset detergents are salt water or 5% ammonia.

[0111] After using the intensive washing method, you still need to wash the clothes using the regular washing method to remove other stains such as dust and sweat.

[0112] For unconventional stains, using both intensive and regular washing methods can improve the stain removal rate.

[0113] Furthermore, you can set the washing time for both the enhanced washing mode and the regular washing mode.

[0114] Optionally, the method further includes: obtaining the degree of difficulty in cleaning unconventional stains; determining a first duration of intensive washing and a second duration of conventional washing based on the degree of difficulty in cleaning; performing intensive washing with a preset detergent during the first duration; and performing washing with a conventional detergent during the second duration.

[0115] When using an intensive washing method followed by a regular washing method, the first duration of the intensive washing method and the second duration of the regular washing method can be further determined. Specifically, this can be determined based on the difficulty of cleaning the unconventional stains, which can be determined empirically. For example, if the washing time for the intensive washing method is T1 and the washing time for the regular washing method is T2, and the oil stain is considered difficult to clean, a longer first duration (greater than T1) and a shorter second duration (less than T2) should be set. Conversely, for fruit stains, which are considered relatively easy to clean, a shorter first duration (less than T1) can be set, while maintaining the second duration at T2.

[0116] By setting the washing times for the enhanced washing mode and the regular washing mode, energy can be saved while ensuring that clothes are cleaned.

[0117] In this embodiment, after a user takes clothes out of the wardrobe and puts them on, and then takes food out of the refrigerator and eats it, the system automatically sends the clothing information and the corresponding stain information for the food to the washing machine via the wardrobe and refrigerator, respectively. The washing machine then automatically generates a washing mode based on the acquired clothing and stain information, achieving automatic selection of the washing mode without requiring manual selection by the user. This has the advantages of convenient and accurate operation, and the automatically generated washing mode corresponds to the clothing and stain information, ensuring proper cleaning and protection of the clothes. Furthermore, it can generate corresponding washing modes based on stain type and set the washing time for intensive washing and regular washing modes, ensuring that clothes are cleaned effectively while reducing energy consumption.

The aforementioned program can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium. When executed, the program performs the steps of the above-described method embodiments; and the aforementioned storage medium includes various media capable of storing program code, such as ROM, RAM, magnetic disks, or optical disks.
