[0059] Figure 5 This is a second flowchart of a washing control method for a washing machine provided in an embodiment of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0060] 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 a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0061] To gain a more complete understanding of this application and its beneficial effects, the following description will be provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In the following description, the same reference numerals denote the same parts.

[0062] This application provides a washing machine, which may be a front-loading washing machine or a top-loading washing machine, and may be a single-tub washing machine or a multi-tub washing machine.

[0063] For example, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a washing machine 1000 provided in an embodiment of this application. The washing machine 1000 includes a camera device 100, a display panel 200, and a controller 300.

[0064] The camera device 100 is used to photograph the clothes placed inside the drum of the washing machine 1000. The camera device 100 includes, for example, a camera and a memory. The camera captures images of the clothes, and the memory stores the captured images. The camera is, for example, embedded in the door of the washing machine 1000 and is sealed to prevent water from entering the camera. In some embodiments, the camera's shooting angle is adjustable.

[0065] The controller 300 is connected to the camera device 100. The controller 300 is used to acquire images of each garment to be washed; determine garment information based on the images, including the number of garments, the color of each garment, and the material of each garment; determine washing parameters based on the garment information and a preset parameter library, including washing time, number of rinses, detergent dosage, and washing water temperature, and the preset parameter library includes the correspondence between garment information and washing parameters; and control the washing of the garments according to the washing parameters. The washing machine 1000 may also include a storage module for storing the preset parameter library, which the controller 300 can call.

[0066] In some embodiments, the washing machine 1000 may further include a clothing detection device for detecting whether clothing has been placed in the drum. If the controller 300 determines that clothing has been placed in the washing machine drum, it controls the camera device 100 to turn on, thereby taking pictures of the clothing. The clothing detection device may be, for example, a weight sensor, a photosensor, etc.

[0067] In other embodiments, the camera device 100 also functions as a clothing insertion detection device to detect whether clothing has been inserted into the drum. For example, if the camera device 100 detects movement of an object in the frame, it takes a picture of the frame after a preset time and sends a signal to the controller 300. Upon receiving the signal, the controller 300 acquires the image captured by the camera device and confirms the clothing information within the image. The washing machine 1000 may include, for example, a door opening detector. When the controller 300 determines that the washing machine door is open, it controls the camera device 100 to turn on and detect whether clothing has been inserted into the drum.

[0068] The washing machine 1000 can also learn the user's washing habits, such as the time of day the user usually washes clothes and the frequency of washing. Furthermore, the washing machine 1000 adjusts the detection frequency of the clothes loading monitoring device based on the user's washing habits. For example, if the washing machine 1000 learns that the user usually washes clothes between 8 and 10 pm, it increases the detection frequency of the clothes loading monitoring device during that time period and decreases the detection frequency during other times.

[0069] The controller 300 is also connected to the display panel 200. When the controller 300 confirms clothing information based on the acquired clothing image, the controller 300, for example, controls the display panel 200 to display the clothing information. For an example, please refer to [link to example]. Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a first schematic diagram of a display panel 200 provided in an embodiment of this application. The display panel 200 displays, but is not limited to, the number of garments, the color of the garments, and the material of the garments.

[0070] In practical applications, users can, for example, change or confirm clothing information by touching the display panel 200. This could involve changing the material from cotton to wool, or reducing the number of garments from 5 to 4. In some embodiments, the washing machine 1000 may also include a voice control module, allowing users to control the washing machine through voice communication, such as changing or confirming clothing information. After the user confirms or changes the clothing information, the controller automatically matches appropriate washing parameters based on the confirmed or changed information. If the user does not change or confirm the clothing information within a preset time after the display panel 200 displays it, the controller automatically starts matching washing parameters based on the clothing information. This preset time is, for example, 1 minute.

[0071] After the controller 300 obtains the washing parameters, the display panel 200 displays those washing parameters, for example. See the example below. Figure 3 , Figure 3This is a second schematic diagram of the display panel 200 provided in an embodiment of this application. The display panel 200 displays, but is not limited to, the appropriate washing time, number of rinses, washing concentration, and washing water temperature for washing the garment.

[0072] In practical applications, users can change or confirm the first washing parameters by touching the display panel 200. For example, they can change the washing time from 40 minutes to 50 minutes, the number of washes from 2 to 3, or the washing water temperature from 20℃ to 25℃. Users can also change or confirm the first washing parameters via voice. After the user confirms the washing parameters, the controller 300 starts controlling the washing machine 1000 to wash the clothes according to the confirmed or changed washing parameters. Similarly, if the user does not change or confirm the washing parameters within a preset time after the display panel 200 displays them, the controller 300 automatically starts washing the clothes according to the washing parameters. This preset time is, for example, one minute.

[0073] In some embodiments, before the washing machine 1000 starts washing clothes, the user can also schedule the start time of washing clothes by touching the display panel 200 or by voice control. For example, the user can schedule the washing to start at a specific time, such as 6:00 a.m. tomorrow; or schedule the washing to start after a certain period of time, such as 8 hours from now.

[0074] In some embodiments, the washing machine 1000 further includes a communication module, through which the washing machine 1000 can establish a connection with a mobile terminal. When the washing machine 1000 is connected to the mobile terminal, the controller 300 can send clothing information and washing parameters to the mobile terminal through the communication module. After receiving the clothing information and washing parameters, the mobile terminal displays the clothing information and washing parameters on its screen. The user can modify or confirm the clothing information and washing parameters through the mobile terminal, causing the mobile terminal to send a modification command or confirmation command to the washing machine 1000. After receiving the modification command or confirmation command, the controller 300 can control the washing machine 1000 to wash clothes with the washing parameters according to the confirmation command, or modify the washing parameters according to the modification command and control the washing machine 1000 to wash clothes according to the modified washing parameters.

[0075] If, after a preset time has elapsed since the clothing information and washing parameters have been displayed on the display panel 200 and / or the mobile terminal, the user neither confirms nor changes the clothing information and washing parameters via the mobile terminal nor via the display panel 200, then the controller 300 controls the washing machine 1000 to match the washing parameters according to the clothing information and to wash the clothes with those washing parameters. The mobile terminal may be, for example, a mobile phone, tablet computer, or remote control.

[0076] The washing machine 1000 provided in this application embodiment captures an image of the clothes to be washed and confirms the clothing information based on the image. It then matches washing parameters with a preset parameter library based on the clothing information, eliminating the need for the user to manually select washing parameters, thus improving the intelligence level of the washing machine 1000. Furthermore, users can also modify clothing information and washing parameters via a mobile terminal or the washing machine's display panel, meeting various user needs and enhancing the user experience.

[0077] Based on the washing machine 1000 described above, this application also provides a washing control method for the washing machine. For an example, please refer to [link to example]. Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a first flowchart of a washing control method for a washing machine provided in an embodiment of this application. The washing control method is executed by a controller 300 and includes the following steps s101-s104:

[0078] Step s101: Obtain an image of each garment to be washed;

[0079] For example, when the laundry is finished being loaded, the user sends a confirmation command to the controller 300 via the display panel 200, the smart voice module, or a mobile terminal. Upon receiving this confirmation command, the controller 300 acquires images of the laundry to be washed, captured by a camera device. Multiple images may be displayed, each showing one or more items of clothing to be washed. By analyzing each image, the controller can identify each item of clothing to be washed.

[0080] Step s102: Determine clothing information based on the image. Clothing information includes the number of garments, the color of each garment, and the material of each garment.

[0081] The controller 300, for example, determines the number of garments, the color of each garment, and the material of each garment by recognizing the color, texture features, and shape of the garments.

[0082] Step s103: Determine the washing parameters based on the clothing information and the preset parameter library. The washing parameters include washing time, number of rinses, detergent dosage and washing water temperature. The preset parameter library includes the correspondence between clothing information and washing parameters.

[0083] In some embodiments, the preset parameter library includes a first correspondence between the number of garments and the washing time, for example, the number of garments and the washing time are positively correlated. Determining the washing parameters based on the garment information and the preset parameter library further includes the following steps s1031-s1034:

[0084] Step s1031: Match the number of garments with the first correspondence to obtain the corresponding first washing time;

[0085] For example, when there are 5 pieces of clothing to be washed, the first wash duration is 35 minutes.

[0086] Step s1032: Perform a first processing on the first washing time according to the color of each garment to obtain a second washing time;

[0087] In some embodiments, the first processing of the first washing time according to the color of each garment includes the following steps s11-s13:

[0088] Step s11: Calculate the color of each garment according to the color processing algorithm to obtain color parameters;

[0089] For example, the RBG value of each garment color is obtained from the image, and the lightness / darkness parameter of each garment color is calculated according to the formula g=R×0.299+G×0.587+B×0.114. Then, the average of the lightness / darkness parameters of all garments is taken as the above color parameter.

[0090] Step s12: Obtain the first adjustment parameter based on the color parameters;

[0091] The preset parameter library also includes, for example, the correspondence between color parameters and adjustment parameters. For instance, the first adjustment parameter is obtained by matching the color parameters with the correspondence. For example, when the color depth parameter is 0, the adjustment parameter is 0.8; when the color depth parameter is 255, the adjustment parameter is 1.2.

[0092] Step s13: Multiply the first washing time by the first adjustment parameter to obtain the second washing time.

[0093] For example, if the first wash duration is 35 minutes and the first adjustment parameter is 0.8, the second wash duration will be 28 minutes.

[0094] Step s1033: The second washing time is processed according to the material of each garment to obtain the third washing time;

[0095] In some embodiments, the preset parameter library also includes the correspondence between each material and material parameters; the second washing time is processed according to the material of each garment, for example including steps s14-s16:

[0096] Step s14: Obtain the material parameters based on the material of each garment and the correspondence between each material and the material parameters mentioned above;

[0097] Step s15: Obtain the second adjustment parameter based on the material parameters;

[0098] Step s16: Multiply the second washing time by the second adjustment parameter to obtain the third washing time.

[0099] Step s1034: Use the third washing duration as the washing duration in the washing parameters.

[0100] In some embodiments, the preset parameter library includes a second correspondence between the number of garments and the number of rinses. Determining washing parameters based on garment information and the preset parameter library includes steps s1035-s1038:

[0101] Step s1035: Match the number of garments with the second correspondence to obtain the corresponding number of first rinses;

[0102] For example, when there are 1-5 pieces of clothing, the number of rinses is 2; when there are 5-10 pieces of clothing, the number of rinses is 3.

[0103] Step s1036: Perform a third treatment on the first rinsing cycle according to the color of each garment to obtain the second rinsing cycle;

[0104] The third treatment is performed on the first rinse cycle based on the color of each garment, similar to the first treatment performed on the first washing time based on the color of each garment, and will not be repeated here.

[0105] Step s1037: Perform a fourth treatment on the second rinsing cycle according to the material of each garment to obtain the third rinsing cycle;

[0106] The fourth treatment, which involves adjusting the second rinsing cycle based on the material of each garment, is similar to the second treatment of adjusting the second washing time based on the material of each garment, and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0107] Step s1038: Use the third rinsing number as the rinsing number in the washing parameters.

[0108] In some embodiments, the preset parameter library includes a third correspondence between the number of garments and the amount of detergent used. Determining washing parameters based on garment information and the preset parameter library includes steps s1039-s10312:

[0109] Step s1039: Match the number of garments with the third correspondence to obtain the corresponding first detergent dosage;

[0110] For example, if there are 5 pieces of clothing, the amount of detergent used is 15 grams.

[0111] Step s10310: Perform a fifth treatment on the first detergent dosage according to the color of each garment to obtain the second detergent dosage;

[0112] The fifth treatment, which adjusts the amount of detergent used based on the color of each garment, is similar to the first treatment, which adjusts the washing time based on the color of each garment, and will not be elaborated upon here.

[0113] Step s10311: According to the material of each garment, the second detergent dosage is processed in the sixth step to obtain the third detergent dosage;

[0114] The sixth treatment, which adjusts the amount of detergent used according to the material of each garment, is similar to the second treatment, which adjusts the washing time according to the material of each garment as described above, and will not be repeated here.

[0115] Step s10312: Use the third detergent dosage as the detergent dosage in the washing parameters.

[0116] In some embodiments, the preset parameter library includes a fourth correspondence between the material of each garment and the washing water temperature. Determining the washing parameters based on the garment information and the preset parameter library includes steps s10313-s10316:

[0117] Step s10313: Match the material of each garment with the fourth correspondence to obtain the corresponding first washing water temperature;

[0118] For example, the washing water temperature for cotton clothing is 45℃, and the washing water temperature for sweaters is 35℃. If the clothes to be washed include two cotton garments and two sweaters, then the first washing water temperature is 40℃.

[0119] Step s10314: Perform a seventh treatment on the first washing water temperature according to the color of each garment to obtain the second washing water temperature;

[0120] The seventh process of adjusting the first washing water temperature according to the color of each garment is similar to the first process of adjusting the first washing time according to the color of each garment, and will not be repeated here.

[0121] Step s10315: Perform an eighth treatment on the second washing water temperature according to the number of garments to obtain the third washing water temperature;

[0122] For example, the more pieces of clothing there are, the lower the washing water temperature should be.

[0123] Step s10316: Use the third washing water temperature as the washing water temperature in the washing parameters.

[0124] Step s104: Control the washing of clothes according to the washing parameters.

[0125] In some embodiments, controlling the washing of clothes according to washing parameters includes steps s1041-s1043:

[0126] Step s1041: Control and display washing parameters;

[0127] Step s1042: Receive confirmation or modification instructions for washing parameters from external sources;

[0128] Step s1043: Wash the clothes with the washing parameters according to the confirmation instruction or change the washing parameters according to the change instruction and wash the clothes with the changed washing parameters.

[0129] In some embodiments, after the washing parameters are displayed, the system further includes:

[0130] Start timing; if the preset time is reached and no confirmation or change instruction is received, then control the washing of the clothes according to the washing parameters. The preset time is, for example, 1 minute.

[0131] For further details, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a second flowchart of a washing control method for a washing machine provided in an embodiment of this application. The washing control method for the washing machine includes steps s201-s20.

[0132] Step s201: Turn on the camera device;

[0133] In some embodiments, the washing machine includes a door opening detector for detecting whether the washing machine door is open. The door opening detector is connected to a controller. When the door opening detector detects that the washing machine door is open, it sends a signal to the controller. Upon receiving the signal, if the camera device is not turned on at this time, the controller controls the camera device to turn on.

[0134] Step s202: Determine if any clothing has been put in;

[0135] In some embodiments, the washing machine includes a clothing insertion detector for continuously detecting whether clothing has been inserted into the washing machine. The clothing insertion detector is, for example, a weight sensor. The controller, for example, activates the camera device only after detecting that clothing has been inserted into the washing machine.

[0136] In other embodiments, the camera device is also used to detect whether clothes are inside the washing machine.

[0137] If clothes are put into the washing machine, the camera will take pictures of the clothes to obtain an image of the clothes to be washed. If the clothes to be washed are put in multiple times, the camera will take a picture of each piece of clothing that is put into the washing machine.

[0138] Step s203: Obtain an image of the clothing;

[0139] The acquired images may be multiple, including images of the clothing being put in each time.

[0140] Step s204: Determine whether the clothing delivery has ended;

[0141] In some embodiments, if the user confirms that no more clothes will be added, the user sends a clothes loading end signal to the controller via the washing machine's display panel, smart voice, or mobile terminal, so that the controller begins to execute the following step s205.

[0142] In other embodiments, if the washing machine door is closed and no opening is detected after a preset time, the controller begins to execute the following step s205.

[0143] Step s205: Extract visible features from the surface of the clothing, such as the color, texture, and shape of the clothing;

[0144] Step s206: Determine clothing information based on the extracted features. Clothing information includes the number of garments, the material of each garment, and the color of each garment.

[0145] Step s207: Reconfirm clothing information;

[0146] For example, the controller controls the washing machine's display panel to show clothing information determined based on extracted features, allowing the user to confirm the clothing information again.

[0147] The user can issue a confirmation command to the controller through interaction with the display panel, or change the clothing information and then issue a confirmation command, so that the controller will start executing the following step s208. If the user does not issue a confirmation command within a preset time, the controller will automatically start executing the following step s208.

[0148] Step s208: Determine washing parameters based on clothing information and the preset parameter library;

[0149] Washing parameters include washing time, number of rinses, detergent dosage, and washing water temperature. The preset parameter library includes the correspondence between clothing information and washing parameters.

[0150] In some embodiments, the washing machine can upload images of the washed clothes to the cloud, thereby recording the clothes historically washed by the washing machine and establishing an image set and washing records of the clothes. Before determining the washing parameters based on the clothes information and a preset parameter library, the following steps are included:

[0151] Determine whether the clothes put into the washing machine include new clothes based on the image;

[0152] If the washing machine is loaded with new clothes, the washing parameters will be determined based on the new clothes, the clothes information, and the preset parameter library.

[0153] The parameters for adjusting new clothes include washing time, washing water temperature, and detergent dosage.

[0154] In some embodiments, determining whether the clothes put into the washing machine include new clothes based on the image includes:

[0155] Upload the image of the clothing to the cloud;

[0156] Receive comparison results from the cloud based on the comparison between the image and its own stored historical clothing images;

[0157] The comparison results will determine whether the clothing includes new clothing.

[0158] Step s209: Confirm the washing parameters again;

[0159] For example, the controller controls the washing machine's display panel to show washing parameters determined based on clothing information and a preset parameter library, so that the user can confirm the washing parameters.

[0160] The user can issue a confirmation command to the controller by interacting with the display panel, or change the washing parameters and then issue a confirmation command, so that the controller will start executing the following step s208. If the user does not issue a confirmation command within a preset time, the controller will automatically start executing the following step s208.

[0161] Step s210: Control the washing of clothes to begin with the washing parameters confirmed again.

[0162] In practical applications, after the user puts the clothes into the washing machine and confirms that the clothes are in, the washing machine automatically matches the appropriate washing parameters based on the image of the clothes and washes them according to those parameters, without requiring the user to manually select the washing parameters.
