The treated dry air is then discharged outside the machine, and this cycle continues to reduce indoor humidity.

[0054] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present invention described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0055] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the invention.

[0056] It should be noted that relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used merely to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such a process, method, article, or apparatus. Without further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising one..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus that includes said element.

[0057] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0058] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This diagram illustrates an exemplary structural block diagram of a dehumidifier 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention. The dehumidifier 10 can be placed in an area to be dehumidified, performing dehumidification operations to reduce the humidity in that area, thereby improving user comfort. It should be noted that the working principle of the dehumidifier 10 is to condense moisture in the air and then collect the condensed moisture to reduce the moisture content in the air, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the humidity in a designated area.

[0059] The dehumidifier 10 includes a body 11 and a water tank 12. The body 11 has a receiving cavity 13, and the water tank 12 is detachably fitted to the body 11 and located within the receiving cavity 13. The body 11 draws in air from a designated area and condenses the moisture in the air while drawing it in. The condensed moisture is then collected in the water tank 12. A drive assembly (not shown) may be installed inside the body 11, allowing the water tank 12 to move in or out of the receiving cavity 13. When the water tank 12 is in the receiving cavity 13, it collects the moisture generated by the body 11. When the water tank 12 is out of the receiving cavity 13, the water in the tank can be emptied to facilitate moisture collection for the next dehumidification cycle.

[0060] Furthermore, the water tank 12 may also be provided with a water tank cover (not shown in the figure). When the water level in the water tank 12 reaches a preset height, the drive component can drive the water tank cover to rotate and pop open, and further drive the water tank to move out of the receiving cavity 13 for automatic drainage. The dehumidifier may also be provided with a power component (not shown in the figure) at the bottom of the body 11. The power component can drive the dehumidifier to move.

[0061] Please see Figure 2 , Figure 2 An exemplary structural block diagram of an electronic device 100 provided in an embodiment of the present invention is shown, such as... Figure 2 As shown, the electronic device 100 includes a memory 101, a processor 102, and a communication interface 103. The memory 101, processor 102, and communication interface 103 are electrically connected to each other directly or indirectly to realize data transmission or interaction. For example, these components can be electrically connected to each other through one or more communication buses or signal lines.

[0062] The memory 101 can be used to store software programs and modules. The processor 102 executes various functional applications and data processing by executing the software programs and modules stored in the memory 101. The communication interface 103 can be used to communicate with other node devices for signaling or data.

[0063] The memory 101 may be, but is not limited to, random access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), programmable read-only memory (PROM), erasable programmable read-only memory (EPROM), electrically erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM), etc.

[0064] The processor 102 can be an integrated circuit chip with signal processing capabilities. The processor 102 can be a general-purpose processor, including a central processing unit (CPU), a network processor (NP), etc.; it can also be a digital signal processor (DSP), an application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC), a field-programmable gate array (FPGA), or other programmable logic devices, discrete gate or transistor logic devices, or discrete hardware components.

[0065] In this embodiment of the invention, the electronic device 100 can be a smart terminal such as a smartphone, tablet computer, PC, or smart wearable device. The electronic device 100 can communicate with the dehumidifier 10 wirelessly.

[0066] Furthermore, in order to achieve data communication with the dehumidifier 10, necessary firmware, such as applications, can be installed on the electronic device 100. Based on this, the dehumidifier 10 can also include a corresponding control unit to control the dehumidifier 10 to perform corresponding actions during the interaction with the electronic device 100.

[0067] The following description uses electronic device 100 as the executing entity to illustrate a drainage control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 , Figure 3 A flowchart illustrating a drainage control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0068] like Figure 3 As shown, the above-described drainage control method is applied to electronic device 100, and the method may include the following steps:

[0069] S210: If the connection with the target dehumidifier is successful, obtain the current map information of the target dehumidifier's current working area and display the current map information on the map display interface.

[0070] S220: Determine the target map information based on the current map information, and determine the drainage area based on the target map information.

[0071] S230, send the target map information of the identified drainage area to the target dehumidifier, so that the target dehumidifier can move to the drainage area to drain water when the water level in the water tank meets the preset conditions.

[0072] The above steps enable the acquisition of current map information of the current working area, the determination of target map information based on the current map information, and the determination of drainage area based on the target map information, so that the target dehumidifier can automatically drain water according to the target map information.

[0073] Step S210 involves obtaining and displaying the current map information of the target dehumidifier's current working area. After the user turns on the dehumidifier, they can connect to it via Bluetooth on an electronic device (e.g., a mobile phone). If the electronic device successfully connects to the target dehumidifier, it can obtain the current map information of the current working area sent by the target dehumidifier.

[0074] Furthermore, the aforementioned current map information can be realized based on the working map formed by scanning the current working area using the position sensor set on the target dehumidifier, or it can be realized based on the regional environmental map of the current working area uploaded by the user to the target dehumidifier through an electronic device, with the target dehumidifier drawing the working map according to the regional environmental map.

[0075] For example, if the user's current work area is indoors, the above area environment map can be an indoor floor plan.

[0076] After obtaining the current map information of the target dehumidifier's current working area and displaying the current map information on the map display interface, step S220 is executed to determine the target map information based on the current map information and to determine the drainage area based on the target map information.

[0077] In this embodiment of the invention, the process of determining the target map information based on the current map information can be achieved by the user judging the current map information displayed on the electronic device, and the electronic device ultimately determining the target map information based on the judgment result.

[0078] For example, if a user determines that the currently displayed map information is inaccurate, they can perform corresponding operations on the map display interface (e.g., click the rescan button on the map display interface) and define the inaccurate scanning range. After obtaining the scanning range information, the electronic device will send a command to the target dehumidifier, so that the target dehumidifier can rescan according to the scanning range information and send the current map information of the current working area obtained after the rescan to the electronic device, so that the user can continue to judge the accuracy of the map information until the user approves the displayed current map information. After the user performs the corresponding operation (e.g., click the accurate button on the map display interface), the electronic device will determine the current map information as the target map information.

[0079] For example, if a user determines that the currently displayed map information is inaccurate, they can perform corresponding operations on the map display interface (e.g., clicking the edit button on the map display interface) to make modifications. The electronic device will then obtain the modified current map information for the user to continue judging the accuracy of the map information until the user approves the displayed current map information. After the user performs the corresponding operation (e.g., clicking the accurate button on the map display interface), the electronic device will determine the current map information as the target map information.

[0080] For example, if a user determines that the currently displayed map information is accurate, they can perform the corresponding operation on the map display interface (for example, by clicking the accurate button on the map display interface), and the electronic device will then identify the current map information as the target map information.

[0081] Furthermore, after determining the target map information (i.e., after determining the working map of the target dehumidifier), it is also necessary to further determine the location of the drainage area in the working map. This can be achieved based on the user's operation on the displayed target map information (e.g., selecting a certain area on the displayed target map information).

[0082] In this embodiment of the invention, after determining the target map information based on the current map information and determining the drainage area based on the target map information, step S230 is continued to be executed, and the target map information of the determined drainage area is sent to the target dehumidifier so that the target dehumidifier moves to the drainage area to drain water when the water level in the water tank meets the preset conditions.

[0083] Specifically, based on the preceding text Figure 1 The dehumidifier 10 shown can be moved to the drainage area by a power component, and then the water tank cover is rotated and popped open by a drive component, further driving the water tank 12 to move out of the receiving cavity 13 for automatic drainage. The dehumidifier 10 can also be designed with a water pipe at the bottom, which is connected to the water tank. The water pipe is driven by the drive component to extend for automatic drainage. The above steps realize automatic drainage under the premise that the dehumidifier is accurately positioned in the drainage area.

[0084] The drainage control method, dehumidifier, and storage medium provided in this invention allow the user to operate a corresponding electronic device, enabling the electronic device to obtain the current map information of the target dehumidifier's current working area. Based on the current map information, the target map information is determined, and based on the target map information, the drainage area is determined. This enables the electronic device and the dehumidifier to interact in order to determine the working area and drainage location of the dehumidifier. Under the premise that the dehumidifier accurately locates the drainage area, the dehumidifier can automatically drain water, avoiding collisions during the movement of the dehumidifier.

[0085] Optionally, the process of determining the target map information based on the current map information includes the following steps:

[0086] exist Figure 3 Based on this, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 The second schematic diagram of a drainage control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown. The step S220, which determines the target map information based on the current map information, includes at least one of the following implementation methods:

[0087] S221, in response to the first operation performed on the map display interface, determines the current map information as the target map information.

[0088] S222, in response to the second operation performed on the map display interface, determines the scanning range information based on the current map information, sends an instruction containing the scanning range information to the target dehumidifier, obtains the current map information of the current working area resent by the target dehumidifier according to the scanning range information and displays it on the map display interface, and in response to the first operation performed on the map display interface, determines the current map information as the target map information.

[0089] S223, in response to the third operation performed on the map display interface, obtains the modified current map information and displays it on the map display interface; in response to the first operation performed on the map display interface, determines the current map information as the target map information.

[0090] The above steps realize the process of determining the target map information based on the current map information.

[0091] For example, if the electronic device is set to a mobile phone, the above process can be described as follows:

[0092] For example, when a user views the current map information displayed on a mobile phone, if they determine that the currently displayed map information is accurate, they can perform corresponding operations on the map display interface (for example, clicking the accurate button on the map display interface, which is the first operation performed on the map display interface), and the electronic device will then identify the current map information as the target map information.

[0093] For example, when a user views the current map information displayed on a mobile phone, if they determine that the displayed map information is inaccurate, they can perform corresponding operations on the map display interface (for example, clicking the rescan button on the map display interface, which is the second operation performed on the map display interface), and define the inaccurate scanning area. After the electronic device obtains the scanning area information, it will send a command to the target dehumidifier, so that the target dehumidifier can rescan according to the scanning area information, and send the current map information of the current working area obtained after the rescan to the electronic device, so that the user can continue to judge the accuracy of the map information until the user approves the displayed current map information. After the user performs the corresponding operation (for example, clicking the accurate button on the map display interface, which is the first operation performed on the map display interface), the electronic device will determine the current map information as the target map information.

[0094] For example, when a user views the current map information displayed on a mobile phone, if they determine that the displayed map information is inaccurate, they can perform corresponding operations on the map display interface (for example, clicking the edit button on the map display interface, which is the third operation performed on the map display interface) to make their own modifications. The electronic device will then obtain the modified current map information for the user to continue judging the accuracy of the map information until the user approves the displayed current map information. After the user performs the corresponding operation (for example, clicking the accurate button on the map display interface, which is the first operation performed on the map display interface), the electronic device will determine the current map information as the target map information.

[0095] In this embodiment of the invention, the above-mentioned method of having the dehumidifier rescan by having the user define the scanning range of the current map information, or having the user actively modify the map based on the current map information, can reduce the time required for the user to assist in drawing the target map when there is no corresponding regional environment map for the current working area (for example, if the current working area is indoors, the regional environment map can be a floor plan), making it more convenient and efficient.

[0096] Furthermore, through the above methods, users can view the current map information displayed on the map display interface at any time, which helps the target dehumidifier always have an accurate target working map, ensuring the accuracy of the target working map and reducing the probability of collisions during the operation of the target dehumidifier.

[0097] Alternatively, the process of determining the drainage area based on the target map information can be achieved through the following steps:

[0098] exist Figure 4 Based on this, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a schematic flowchart of a drainage control method according to an embodiment of the present invention. Step S220, which involves determining the drainage area based on target map information, includes:

[0099] S224, in response to the fourth operation performed on the map display interface, obtains the location information of the drainage area in the current map information to determine the drainage area.

[0100] The above steps realize the process of determining the drainage area based on the target map information.

[0101] For example, if the electronic device mentioned above is a mobile phone, the process can be described as follows:

[0102] For example, after the user has determined the target map information through the corresponding operation (e.g., clicking the accurate button on the map display interface, i.e., the first operation performed on the map display interface), the user can select the drainage area on the displayed target map information so that the electronic device can obtain the location information of the drainage area in the current map information.

[0103] In this embodiment of the invention, the drainage control method can also be applied to a dehumidifier. The following description uses a dehumidifier 10 as the executing entity to illustrate a drainage control method provided in this embodiment of the invention. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 6 , Figure 6 The fourth schematic flowchart of a drainage control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0104] like Figure 6 As shown, the above-described drainage control method is applied to dehumidifier 10, which includes a water tank 12. The method may include the following steps:

[0105] S240, in response to the dehumidifier being turned on, if the dehumidifier is successfully connected to the designated electronic device, determine whether the area environment map sent by the electronic device has been obtained.

[0106] S250, if so, draw a map of the current work area based on the regional environment map to obtain the current map information.

[0107] S260, If not, scan to generate a map of the current working area to obtain current map information.

[0108] S270, the current map information is sent to the electronic device so that the electronic device can determine the target map information based on the current map information and determine the drainage area based on the target map information.

[0109] S280, Obtain target map information for the drainage area sent by the electronic device.

[0110] S290: Obtain the water level in the water tank. If the water level in the water tank meets the preset conditions, move to the drainage area to drain the water.

[0111] The above steps enable the dehumidifier to obtain the current map information and send it to the electronic device, obtain the target map information of the drainage area based on the current map information sent by the electronic device, and automatically drain the water according to the target map information.

[0112] It should be noted that since the dehumidifiers mentioned above can have a built-in positioning system, the process of obtaining current map information can be achieved by drawing a map using an area environment map sent by an electronic device, or by scanning the current working area using a position sensor in the positioning system to generate a map.

[0113] Furthermore, in this embodiment of the invention, the dehumidifier can obtain the water level of the water tank through a water level monitoring device installed in the water tank. When the water level of the water tank meets a preset condition (for example, if the water level of the water tank is greater than two-thirds of the height of the water tank), the control unit of the dehumidifier can control the dehumidifier to move to the drainage area to drain water.

[0114] Optionally, sending the current map information to the electronic device so that the electronic device can determine the target map information based on the current map information and determine the drainage area based on the target map information can be achieved through the following steps:

[0115] exist Figure 6 Based on this, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 The fifth step of the flowchart of a drainage control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is shown. Step S270, which involves sending the current map information to an electronic device so that the electronic device can determine the target map information based on the current map information and determine the drainage area based on the target map information, includes at least one of the following implementation methods:

[0116] S271, the current map information is sent to the electronic device so that the electronic device can obtain the current map information. In response to the first operation, the current map information is determined as the target map information. In response to the fourth operation, the location information of the drainage area in the current map information is obtained to determine the drainage area.

[0117] S272, the current map information is sent to the electronic device so that the electronic device can obtain the current map information. In response to the second operation, the scanning range information is determined based on the current map information, and an instruction containing the scanning range information is sent to the dehumidifier so as to obtain the current map information of the current working area resent by the dehumidifier according to the scanning range information. In response to the first operation, the current map information is determined as the target map information. In response to the fourth operation, the drainage area location information in the current map information is obtained so as to determine the drainage area.

[0118] S273, the current map information is sent to the electronic device so that the electronic device can obtain the current map information. In response to the third operation, the modified current map information is obtained. In response to the first operation, the current map information is determined as the target map information. In response to the fourth operation, the location information of the drainage area in the current map information is obtained to determine the drainage area.

[0119] The above steps realize the process of sending the current map information to the electronic device, so that the electronic device can determine the target map information based on the current map information, and determine the drainage area based on the target map information.

[0120] It should be noted that in the above steps, the electronic device obtains the current map information and determines the target map information based on the current map information. The process of determining the drainage area based on the target map information is similar to the process in the previous text where the electronic device determines the target map information and drainage area based on the user's corresponding operation, and will not be repeated here.

[0121] Optionally, during operation, the dehumidifier can also record the distribution of obstacles in the current working area and send obstacle information from the current map to an electronic device, so that the user can view the location of all obstacles in the current working area through the electronic device. ， Based on this, the above process can be achieved through the following steps:

[0122] exist Figure 6 Based on this, please refer to Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is shown as a sixth schematic flowchart of a drainage control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The drainage control method further includes:

[0123] S300: Obtain obstacle information from the current map.

[0124] S301 performs obstacle avoidance and mobile dehumidification within the current work area based on obstacle information.

[0125] S302, send obstacle information to the electronic device so that the electronic device can display the location of all obstacles in the current working area based on the obstacle information.

[0126] The above steps enable the dehumidifier to acquire obstacle information from the current map and send it to the electronic device, so that the electronic device can display the location of all obstacles in the current working area based on the obstacle information.

[0127] It should be noted that while the electronic device displays the location of all obstacles in the current working area based on obstacle information, the user can also judge whether the obstacle information is accurate based on the displayed results. If it is inaccurate, the user can modify the current map information until it is determined that the current map information is accurate, so that the dehumidifier can perform drainage and dehumidification operations under the premise of accurate positioning based on the determined target map information.

[0128] Furthermore, if the current working area is the user's living space, the user may rearrange the room, causing changes to the distribution of obstacles. Based on this, the dehumidifier can acquire obstacle information from the current map during operation—that is, obtain the real-time obstacle distribution of the working area—and send it to electronic devices for the user to view and modify, further contributing to maintaining the accuracy of the final target map information acquired by the dehumidifier.

[0129] Optionally, the process of moving the water tank to the drainage area to drain water, provided that the water level in the tank meets preset conditions, can be achieved through the following steps:

[0130] exist Figure 6 Based on this, please refer to Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is illustrated in the seventh flowchart of a drainage control method provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The dehumidifier also includes a water level monitoring device. Step S290 involves acquiring the water level in the water tank and, if the water level in the water tank meets preset conditions, moving to the drainage area to drain the water. This step includes:

[0131] S291, the water level of the water tank is obtained through the water level monitoring device, and if the water level of the water tank is greater than the first preset value, the tank is moved to the drainage area to drain the water.

[0132] The above steps enable the process of obtaining the water level in the water tank and, when the water level in the water tank meets the preset conditions, moving it to the drainage area to drain the water.

[0133] For example, if the water level in the tank is greater than two-thirds of the tank's height, the dehumidifier will move to the drainage area to drain the water.

[0134] Optionally, if the dehumidifier's water tank level has not reached the value required for automatic drainage, but the water level is gradually rising, it is necessary to promptly remind the user. Based on this, the above process can be achieved through the following steps:

[0135] exist Figure 9 Based on this, please refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is illustrated in the eighth schematic flowchart of a drainage control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The drainage control method further includes:

[0136] S310: When the water level in the water tank is greater than the second preset value, a prompt instruction is sent to the electronic device so that the electronic device displays a prompt message according to the prompt instruction.

[0137] The above steps realize the process of sending prompt instructions to electronic devices based on the water level in the water tank.

[0138] It should be noted that if the water level in the tank is higher than the second preset value (for example, if the water level in the tank is greater than half the height of the tank), a prompt command can be sent to the electronic device, which will display a high water level warning message. The user can then shake the dehumidifier against the wall to prevent condensate from overflowing.

[0139] Based on the same inventive concept, embodiments of the present invention also provide a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein the computer program, when executed by processor 102, implements the drainage control method provided in the above embodiments.

[0140] The steps executed by the aforementioned computer program during runtime will not be described in detail here, but can be found in the explanation of the drainage control method above.
