[0051] The above drawings illustrate specific embodiments of the present application, which will be described in more detail below. These drawings and the textual description are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but rather to illustrate the concepts of the present application to those skilled in the art by reference to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0052] Exemplary embodiments will be described in detail herein, with examples illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, identical numerals in different figures represent identical or similar elements, unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the present application. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present application, as detailed in the appended claims.
[0053] Washing machines are commonly used smart home appliances, and their functions are becoming more and more numerous. The derived washer-dryer combination is a new type of intelligent washing machine that integrates multiple functions such as washing, spinning, and drying, and is also widely used by users. Currently, when users have laundry needs, they use the washer-dryer combination by selecting a washing machine or a washing machine control device that provides a washing and drying program with fixed parameters. The program includes washing parameters and drying parameters. The washing parameters are used to wash the clothes, and the drying parameters are used to dry the washed clothes. Washing and drying are completed continuously and automatically. The washing and drying program does not set different washing and drying parameters for different clothing materials. The washing parameters are the washing parameters, and the drying parameters are the drying parameters. The drying parameters of the washing and drying program may not be suitable for all clothing materials. There may be a situation where the clothes are dry but the drying function continues to run for the duration set by the drying parameters, resulting in a waste of resources.
[0054] To address the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the present application provides an intelligent laundry method and a control device for a washing machine. The control device of the washing machine obtains a target wash-dry program selected by a user and modifies the parameters of the target wash-dry program according to the value range of each parameter of the target wash-dry program operated by the user, including washing parameters and drying parameters, so that the user can set reasonable wash-dry program parameters according to actual conditions, and the user washes and dries clothes using the modified target wash-dry program. The user inputs the laundry results into the control device of the washing machine, and the control device compares a first result obtained by washing and drying the target wash-dry program with a second result obtained by washing and drying the modified target wash-dry program. When the second result is better than the first result, the parameters of the modified target wash-dry program are sent to a server. The technician can then optimize the wash-dry program algorithm based on the parameters reported by the control device, so that the wash-dry program can achieve the optimal solution for cleaning, drying, and minimizing energy consumption based on the drying temperature, drying time, and clothing material, thereby providing the user with the optimal wash-dry program, saving resources and user time, and giving the user a better laundry experience.
[0055] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an application scenario applicable to this application. Figure 1As shown, information is exchanged between the washing machine control device 101, washing machine 102, and server 103 via the Internet. The processor in server 103 is configured to execute corresponding computer programs to implement corresponding control operations for various functions of washing machine 102 and washing machine control device 101. Server 103 may also be a server cluster, which is not limited in this embodiment. It is understood that the number of washing machine control device 101, washing machine 102, and server 103 can be multiple, which is not shown in the figure.
[0056] In addition, the embodiment of the present application does not limit the type of washing machine 102. Washing machine 102 can be a direct-discharge washer-dryer, a condensing washer-dryer, or any other type of washing machine. The embodiment of the present application does not limit the type of washing machine control device 101. Washing machine control device 101 can be an electronic device such as a mobile phone, tablet computer, or desktop computer installed with a washing machine app. The washing machine control device 101 can display and select the washing and drying program through the app installed on the washing machine control device 101.
[0057] The following specific embodiments describe in detail the technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present application will be described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0058] refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flow chart of a smart laundry method provided in Example 1 of the present application. The method can be executed by a control device of a washing machine, and the method includes the following steps.
[0059] Step 201: Obtain a target wash-and-dry program selected by a user, where parameters of the target wash-and-dry program include washing parameters and drying parameters.
[0060] When a user selects a wash-and-dry program through the washing machine's operating panel or the washing machine's control device, the washing machine's control device will obtain the user's selected target wash-and-dry program parameters, including washing parameters and drying parameters. Washing parameters include, but are not limited to, washing time, water consumption, water temperature, and drum speed; drying parameters include, but are not limited to, drying temperature, drying time, clothing material, and sterilization.
[0061] For example, a user opens a wash-and-dry program selection interface through an app installed on the washing machine's control device. The selection interface displays multiple available wash-and-dry programs, and the user can select a target wash-and-dry program according to their needs. For example, if a user selects a children's clothing wash program as the target wash-and-dry program, the user can directly use the children's clothing wash program for washing and drying, or view the parameters of the children's clothing wash program, which include washing parameters and drying parameters. For example, the washing parameters of the children's clothing wash program include: washing time of 0.5 hours, water consumption of 40L, water temperature of 50 degrees Celsius, and drum speed of 1000 rpm. The drying parameters of the children's clothing wash program include: drying temperature of 70 degrees Celsius, drying time of 1.5 hours, drying clothes made of pure cotton, and sterilization required.
[0062] Step 202: Modify the parameters of the target wash-dry program according to the user operation.
[0063] The user can operate within the value range of each parameter of the displayed target wash-and-dry program according to actual needs, and the control device of the washing machine can receive the user's selection operation of the parameter value within the modification range of each parameter.
[0064] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the parameter modification page for the wash-dry program, such as Figure 3 As shown, the modification page displays a washing parameter modification area 301, a drying parameter modification area 302 and a washing effect input area 303.
[0065] After selecting a target wash-and-dry program on the washing machine or the washing machine's control device, the user can modify the parameters of the target wash-and-dry program by clicking on the drying parameter modification control 301 and the washing parameter modification control 302 on the operation page displayed by the washing machine's control device 30. Optionally, the user can modify only one or more of the drying parameters, or only one or more of the washing parameters, or the user can modify both the drying parameters and the washing parameters.
[0066] For example, after the user clicks the drying parameter modification control 301, he / she can modify one or more of the drying temperature, drying time, drying clothing material and sterilization options; after clicking the washing parameter modification control 302, he / she can modify one or more of the washing time, water consumption, water temperature and drum speed.
[0067] After the user washes and dries clothes using the modified parameters of the target wash-and-dry program, the user can click the modified parameter control 304 and the unmodified parameter control 305 in the washing effect input area 303 to enter the washing effect before and after the parameter modification, respectively. The washing effect includes information such as the degree of cleanliness, degree of dryness, and whether the drying temperature damages the clothing material. The modified parameter control 304 is used for the user to enter the washing effect after washing and drying clothes using the modified parameters of the target wash-and-dry program, and the unmodified parameter control 305 is used for the user to enter the washing effect after washing clothes using the unmodified parameters of the target wash-and-dry program.
[0068] For example, when the user selects the children's clothing washing program on the operation panel of the washing machine or the control device of the washing machine, the user can operate within the value range of each parameter of the displayed children's clothing washing program according to actual needs. Among the washing parameters of the children's clothing washing program, the washing time range is 0.2 hours to 2 hours, the water consumption range is 20L to 60L, the water temperature range is 30 degrees Celsius to 60 degrees Celsius, and the drum speed is 800 rpm to 1200 rpm. Among the drying parameters of the children's clothing washing program, the drying temperature range is 30 degrees Celsius to 90 degrees Celsius, the drying time range is 0.5 hours to 4 hours, the drying clothing material can be selected from wool, pure cotton, denim, polyester, silk, etc., and the sterilization parameters can be selected to require sterilization or not.
[0069] For example, if a user washes and dries children's denim, they select wash parameters of 0.5 hours, 30L of water, 30°C water temperature, and 800 rpm. They also select drying parameters of 50°C, 1 hour, denim as the dryer, and sterilization as required. The washing machine's control device then modifies the parameters for the desired wash-and-dry cycle based on the user's settings.
[0070] Optionally, before this step, the control device of the washing machine displays the parameters of the target wash-dry program and prompt information, and the prompt information is used to prompt the user whether to adjust the parameters of the target wash-dry program. If the control device of the washing machine receives a confirmation instruction input by the user to confirm the adjustment of the parameters of the target wash-dry program, the control device of the washing machine will modify the parameters of the target wash-dry program according to the user operation. If the control device of the washing machine receives a negative instruction input by the user not to adjust the parameters of the target wash-dry program, the parameters of the target wash-dry program will not be adjusted.
[0071] Step 203: Wash and dry the clothes using the modified parameters of the target wash-and-dry program.
[0072] After the control device of the washing machine modifies the parameters of the target wash-and-dry program according to the user's operation, the user can use the modified parameters of the target wash-and-dry program to wash and dry clothes.
[0073] Step 204: Compare a first result obtained by washing and drying using the parameters of the target wash-and-dry program before modification with a second result obtained by washing and drying using the modified parameters.
[0074] The first result and the second result both include one or more of the following results: total washing and drying time, water consumption or washing effect, the washing effect is input by the user, and the total washing and drying time is the sum of the washing time and the drying time.
[0075] After the user washes and dries clothes using the parameters of the target wash-and-dry program before modification, the user can input the washing effect into the control device of the washing machine, and the control device of the washing machine will obtain the total washing and drying time and water consumption parameters originally set for the target wash-and-dry program to obtain the first result.
[0076] After washing and drying clothes using the modified parameters of the target wash-and-dry program, the user can input the washing effect in the washing control device, and the control device of the washing machine will obtain the total washing and drying time and water consumption parameters of the target wash-and-dry program modified by the user to obtain a second result.
[0077] The washing effect includes the degree of cleanliness, the degree of dryness and the degree of damage to the clothing material caused by the drying temperature. Among them, the degree of cleanliness can be selected in the range of 0-100%, the degree of dryness can be selected in the range of 0-100%, and the degree of damage to the clothing material caused by the drying temperature can be selected in the range of 0-20%.
[0078] As a possible implementation, the user may not input the washing result. The washing machine control device may then compare the obtained first result with the second result. The first result and the second result both include one or more of the following results: total washing and drying time, and water consumption. This embodiment does not limit whether the user inputs the washing result.
[0079] Step 205: Display the comparison result between the first result and the second result.
[0080] When the comparison result displayed by the control device of the washing machine is that the second result is better than the first result, optionally, the control device of the washing machine sends the modified parameters of the target wash-dry program to the server.
[0081] As a possible implementation manner, when the second result is not better than the first result, the control device of the washing machine will not send the modified parameters of the target wash-dry program to the server.
[0082] For example, a user enters a first result and a second result for laundry results, both of which include a laundry duration and a laundry result. The first result indicates a total laundry duration of 0.5 hours plus 1.5 hours of drying time, or 2 hours, with a laundry result of 80% cleanliness, 90% thoroughness, and 10% damage to the fabric caused by the drying temperature. The second result indicates a total laundry duration of 0.5 hours plus 1 hour of drying time, or 1.5 hours, with a laundry result of 80% cleanliness, 95% thoroughness, and 5% damage to the fabric caused by the drying temperature. The second result's total laundry duration is longer than the first result, saving the user time. Furthermore, the second result's thoroughness and damage to the fabric caused by the drying temperature are also longer than the first result. Therefore, the second result is deemed to be superior to the first result, and the washing machine's control device will send the modified parameters of the target wash-and-dry program to the server.
[0083] In this embodiment, the control device of the washing machine obtains the target dry-cleaning program selected by the user, modifies the parameters of the target wash-drying program according to the user's operation, and uses the modified parameters of the target wash-drying program to wash and dry clothes. The user can flexibly modify the washing parameters or drying parameters, which saves the user's time and brings the user a better laundry experience. In addition, the first result obtained by washing and drying the parameters of the target wash-drying program before modification is compared with the second result obtained by washing and drying the parameters after modification. When the second result is better than the first result, the parameters of the modified target wash-drying program are sent to the server. The technicians can then optimize the wash-drying program algorithm based on the parameters reported by the control device of the washing machine, so that the wash-drying program can achieve the optimal solution of washing, drying, and consuming the least energy according to the drying temperature, time, and material of the clothes, thereby providing the user with the optimal wash-drying program and saving resources.
[0084] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a signaling flow chart of a smart laundry method provided in Example 2 of the present application. Based on Example 1, this embodiment describes in detail the interaction process between devices, and this embodiment is explained by taking the example of a user having used the target wash-and-dry program to wash and dry clothes.

[0085] Step 401: The control device of the washing machine obtains the target wash-dry program selected by the user.
[0086] The parameters of the target wash-dry program include washing parameters and drying parameters.
[0087] Step 402: The control device of the washing machine modifies the parameters of the target wash-dry program according to the user operation.
[0088] Step 403: The control device of the washing machine sends an instruction to the washing machine.
[0089] The server sends the target wash-dry program with modified parameters to the washing machine.
[0090] Step 404: The washing machine uses the modified target wash-and-dry program to wash and dry the clothes.
[0091] Step 405: The control device of the washing machine obtains a first result of washing and drying the clothes using the target wash-and-dry program.
[0092] Step 406: The control device of the washing machine obtains a second result of washing and drying the clothes using the modified target wash-and-dry program.
[0093] It is understandable that there is no specific order in which step 405 and step 406 are executed.
[0094] Step 407: The control device of the washing machine compares the first result and the second result and displays them.
[0095] Step 408: The control device of the washing machine determines whether the second result is better than the first result.
[0096] When the second result is better than the first result, step 409 is executed.
[0097] Step 409: The control device of the washing machine sends the modified parameters of the target wash-dry program to the server.
[0098] Step 410: The server optimizes the target washer-dryer program algorithm.
