[0049] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0050] like Figure 1 The figure shows a preferred embodiment of the closing control method of the present invention. The closing control method can be applied to household appliances such as steam ovens that need to close the panel or door panel. The closing control method can greatly reduce the probability of the user being caught during the panel closing process, improve the safety of the user during use, eliminate potential safety hazards, and improve the user experience.

[0051] This closing control method is applied to the opening and closing mechanism, and the opening and closing mechanism executes the closing control method. Figure 2-3 As shown, the opening and closing mechanism is arranged on the mounting plate 1 of the household appliance, and is used to drive the panel 2 to open and close. The mounting plate 1 is usually a plate-like structure arranged on the top of the household appliance. In this embodiment, the mounting plate 1 is arranged horizontally. The panel 2 can be a control panel or other functional panel or door panel, etc., and the present invention is not limited to this. In this embodiment, the panel 2 is a control panel.

[0052] Specifically, the opening and closing mechanism includes a driving mechanism, which is disposed on the mounting plate 1, and a driving end of the driving mechanism is connected to the panel 2, and drives the panel 2 to move linearly back and forth. Figure 3As shown by the arrow in the middle, the panel 2 can be driven by the driving mechanism to move horizontally and linearly back and forth in the left and right directions, and move to the right for opening and move to the left for closing. In this embodiment, the driving mechanism drives the panel 2 to move horizontally and linearly back and forth and open and close relative to the front frame 4. The front frame 4 is vertically arranged with the mounting plate 1, and the front frame 4 is connected to one end of the mounting plate 1, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the front frame 4 is connected to the right end of the mounting plate 1.

[0053] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a driving device 301 and a push-pull member 302. One end of the push-pull member 302 is connected to the driving end of the driving device 301, and the other end is connected to the panel 2. The driving device 301 drives the push-pull member 302 and the panel 2 to move linearly back and forth. The driving device 301 can be a motor, and the purpose of driving the panel 2 to move horizontally and linearly is achieved through the forward and reverse rotation of the motor. At this time, the driving end of the driving device 301 is the output shaft of the motor.

[0054] The push-pull member 302 includes a connecting plate 3022 and two push-pull rods 3021, the two push-pull rods 3021 are arranged at intervals from each other, the connecting plate 3022 is placed between the two push-pull rods 3021, and the two sides of the connecting plate 3022 are respectively connected to the two push-pull rods 3021 to form an integral structure. Specifically, the push-pull member 302 is arranged in a horizontal direction, that is, parallel to the moving direction of the panel 2, the connection between the push-pull member 302 and the panel 2 is close to the edge of the panel 2, and the connection between the two push-pull members 302 and the panel 2 is symmetrical relative to the midline of the panel 2, so as to apply a balanced and stable push-pull force to the panel 2. The two push-pull members 302 and the panel 2 form a frame structure, the connecting plate 3022 is placed in the frame structure, and the connecting plate 3022 is arranged close to the side away from the panel 2, and the area of ​​the frame structure is larger than the area of ​​the connecting plate 3022. Furthermore, the driving device 301 has a certain length, and its length direction is parallel to the setting direction of the push-pull member 302. The driving device 301 is set below the push-pull member 302, and the driving device 301 and the push-pull member 302 have a certain distance in the vertical direction.

[0055] Furthermore, the driving mechanism further includes a slider 303, the slider 303 is connected to the driving end of the driving device 301, and one end of the push-pull member 302 is connected to the slider 303. Specifically, the bottom surface of the slider 303 is connected to the driving end of the driving device 301, and the top surface of the slider 303 is connected to one end of the push-pull member 302. In order to facilitate the structural arrangement, the slider 303 is located between the two push-pull rods 3021, so the top surface of the slider 303 is connected to the connecting plate 3022.

[0056] The shutdown control method of this embodiment includes:

[0057] Step SO1, the driving device is driven at a duty cycle Pn (n=1+i, i is a natural number and its initial value is 0) drives the panel 2 to move in the closing direction;

[0058] In this step, when the panel 2 is closed, the driving device, i.e., the motor, rotates forward, n=1, and the driving device rotates at a duty cycle P 1 Drive panel 2 to move in the closing direction, the closing direction is Figure 3 Left arrow direction.

[0059] Step SO2, recording the running time T of the driving device and the current X corresponding to the current duty cycle;

[0060] The running time T of the driving device is the running time of the motor after the motor starts, and the current X corresponding to the current duty cycle is, in this embodiment, the current X corresponding to the duty cycle P. 1 The corresponding motor current is as follows.

[0061] Step SO3, when T<T n When X≥X n Or X<X n (n=1+i, i is a natural number and the initial value is 0), where T n Indicates the panel off time corresponding to the current duty cycle, X n is the corresponding stall current under the current duty cycle;

[0062] Set P 1 <P 2 <……<P n <P z , the corresponding X 1 <X 2 <……<X n <X z , corresponding to T 1 >T 2 >……>T n >T z ,in,

[0063] P z For motor output 100% duty cycle, X z When the motor output is 100% duty cycle, the current is locked current value, T z The time when the motor outputs 100% duty cycle corresponds to the time when the panel is closed.

[0064] When T<T 1 When , it means that theoretically the closing time has not yet been reached, and the current corresponding to the current duty cycle is judged to be X ≥ X n Or X<X n , at this time n=1, that is, judge X≥X 1 Or X<X 1 , X1 It is the locked-rotor current value corresponding to the current duty cycle.

[0065] Step SO4, if T<T n And X ≥ X n , the panel is clamped by an object, and the driving device drives the panel 2 to move in the opening direction, and i=i+1, and the above steps are repeated;

[0066] In this step, if T<T 1 And X ≥ X 1 , the panel is clamped by an object, which may be the user's finger, etc. The driving device, i.e., the motor, reverses and drives the panel 2 to move in the opening direction. The opening direction is Figure 3 In the direction of the right arrow, the clamped object is released, and i=i+1 is set, and the above steps S01-S04 are repeated.

[0067] Preferably, the driving device drives the panel 2 to move in the opening direction until the panel 2 is fully opened, so as to ensure that the clamped object can be fully released.

[0068] Step SO5, if T<T n And X<X n , then continue to record the running time T of the drive device and the current X corresponding to the current duty cycle;

[0069] In this step, if T<T 1 And X<X 1 , it means that the panel has not clamped any object, and continues to record the running time T of the drive device and the corresponding current X under the current duty cycle.

[0070] Step SO6, when T ≥ T n When X≥X n Or X<X n ;

[0071] When T ≥ T 1 When X≥X 1 Or X<X 1 , X 1 It is the locked-rotor current value corresponding to the current duty cycle.

[0072] Step SO7, if T ≥ T n And X<X n , then the closing is abnormal, the driving device drives the panel 2 to move in the opening direction, let i=i+1, and repeat the above steps;

[0073] In this step, if T ≥ T 1 And X<X 1, it means that the panel is closed abnormally, the driving device, that is, the motor reverses, driving the panel 2 to move in the opening direction, and the opening direction is Figure 3 In the direction of the right arrow, the clamped object is released, and i=i+1 is set, and the above steps S01-S07 are repeated.

[0074] Preferably, the driving device drives the panel 2 to move in the opening direction until the panel 2 is fully opened.

[0075] Step SO8, if T ≥ T n And X ≥ X n , then panel 2 is completely closed.

[0076] In this step, if T ≥ T 1 And X ≥ X 1 , it means that panel 2 has been closed in place, that is, panel 2 is completely closed.

[0077] That is to say,

[0078] Only if the condition ①T<T n When X<X n ; and conditions

[0079] ②T≥T n When X≥Xn, the panel is judged to be closed normally.

[0080] Through the logic control of the above closing control method, the probability of the user being pinched during the panel closing process can be reduced, the safety of the user during use can be improved, potential safety hazards can be eliminated, and the user experience can be improved.

[0081] Furthermore, when the opening and closing mechanism is used for a long time, the system resistance will change, and the system manufacturing also has tolerances, which will lead to different panel movement speeds and inconsistent panel closing strokes, etc. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the T n Make corrections.

[0082] The panel off time T corresponding to the current duty cycle n The value range is [T nmin ,T nmax ], where: T nmin =(KG)×(FZ) / W;

[0083] T nmax =(K+G)×(F+Z) / W;

[0084] in,

[0085] T nmin The motor output P n The minimum value of the panel closing time corresponding to the duty cycle;

[0086] Tnmax The motor output P n The maximum value of the panel closing time corresponding to the duty cycle;

[0087] K is the distance that panel 2 theoretically needs to move when the panel is completely closed;

[0088] G is the absolute value of the tolerance of each component of the system;

[0089] F is the output of the drive device P n The duty cycle is the theoretical force applied by the drive device to the panel 2; Z is the change in the system resistance;

[0090] W is the output of the drive device P n The duty cycle is the power of the driving device.

[0091] The derivation process is as follows:

[0092] Since T=S / V

[0093] And we can know that S=K±G

[0094] From W = Q × V, we know that V = W / Q

[0095] And we know that Q=F±Z

[0096] Then V=W / (F±Z)

[0097] Therefore, T = (K ± G) / [W / (F ± Z)] = (K ± G) × (F ± Z) / W

[0098] Then T nmin =(KG)×(FZ) / W,T nmax =(K+G)×(F+Z) / W.

[0099] in,

[0100] S is the distance the panel actually needs to move when it is closed;

[0101] Q is the output of the drive device P n Duty cycle, corresponds to the actual force applied by the driver to the panel; V is the output P of the driver n The speed at which the panel moves when the duty cycle is set.

[0102] From the above process, we can know that T nmin ≤T n ≤T nmax , so in theory, T n It is feasible as a time judgment condition.

[0103] Taking into account changes in system resistance and system manufacturing tolerances:

[0104] In T<T n When T nmin ≤T n , so in time period T nmin -T n , it is possible that the panel is already in place, that is, X ≥ X n , resulting in an error in judgment, so at this time T n Press T nmin To control, T n Take T nmin , that is, T<T nmin When X<X n ;

[0105] Similarly, when T ≥ T n When T n ≤T nmax , so in time period T n -T nmax , there may be a situation where the panel is not in place, that is, X<X n , resulting in an error in judgment, so at this time T n Press T nmax To control, T n Take T nmax , that is, T ≥ T nmax , X≥Xn.

[0106] In summary, taking into account the changes in system resistance and system manufacturing tolerance, the following conditions are met: ①T<T nmin When X<X n ; and conditions

[0107] ②T≥T nmax When X ≥ X n , the panel judges to be closed normally.

[0108] This embodiment also provides a household appliance, including a housing and a mounting plate 1 arranged on the upper surface of the housing, the mounting plate 1 is provided with an opening and closing mechanism provided in this embodiment, and a panel 2 is also provided on one side of the upper surface of the housing, and the panel 2 is a control panel. In this embodiment, the household appliance is a steam oven, and a water tank is arranged behind the panel 2. When water needs to be filled into the water tank, the panel 2 needs to be opened, and the panel 2 needs to be closed after the water filling is completed. Of course, the steam oven also has other structures and components that existing steam ovens have, and since the present invention does not involve these structures and components, they are not described in detail.
