[0028] Figure 1 A first flowchart of the laundry equipment control method provided in the present application is shown in FIG. 1. The method of the present application can be applied to the control scene of intelligent electrical appliances, and can be executed by the control device of the laundry equipment provided in the present application. The device can be realized in the form of software and / or hardware. In a specific embodiment, the device can be integrated in the laundry equipment. The following embodiments will be described by taking the device integrated in the laundry equipment as an example. Referring to FIG. 1, the method can specifically include the following steps: Figure 1
[0029] S101, when a touch operation of a user is sensed through the touch strip, sending an operation type corresponding to the touch operation to a controller.
[0030] The operation type includes single click, double click, and swipe. The touch strip is a strip-shaped touch screen that can receive a touch operation of a user. The touch strip has a particularly small area and only supports simple operations such as double click, single click, and left-right swipe, and therefore has a very low cost. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of a touch strip in a washing machine provided in the present application is shown in FIG. 1. As shown in FIG. 1, the washing machine includes a control knob, a non-touch screen, and a touch strip, and the touch strip is below the non-touch screen. Figure 2
[0031] When a user touches the touch strip, the touch strip can sense the touch operation of the user, determine an operation type of the touch operation according to the touch operation, and send the operation type to the controller. For example, when the user taps any position of the touch strip once, the touch strip can sense the touch operation of the user, and determine that the operation type is single click according to the time length of the touch operation of the user. When the user taps any position of the touch strip twice in succession, the touch strip can determine that the operation type is double click according to the time length of the touch operation of the user and the time interval between the two touch operations. When the user swipes the touch strip leftward or rightward, the touch strip can determine that the operation type is swipe according to the distance of the swipe operation of the user.
[0032] S102, determining a touch instruction corresponding to the operation type through the controller.
[0033] The touch instruction is determined by the controller and is an instruction for controlling the non-touch screen or the washing machine. In an optional embodiment, the controller pre-stores touch instructions corresponding to various operation types. When the controller receives the operation type of the touch operation of the user, the operation instruction can be matched with the pre-stored touch instructions corresponding to various operation types, so as to determine the touch instruction corresponding to the operation type.
[0034] In the present embodiment, optionally, when the operation type is single click, the touch instruction is determined to be selection of a current program; the current program is one of programs displayed on the non-touch screen and to be operated; when the operation type is double click, the touch instruction is determined to be execution of the current program; and when the operation type is swipe, the touch instruction is determined to be switching of the current program.
[0035] S103, determining a current operation content of the user based on the touch instruction, and displaying the current operation content of the user on the non-touch screen.
[0036] The operation content is determined by the controller according to the touch instruction and is content that needs to be displayed on the non-touch screen. In an optional embodiment, when the touch instruction is to select a current program, the non-touch screen is controlled to display program information of the current program; and when the touch instruction is to switch the current program, the non-touch screen is controlled to switch a page displaying the current program to a page displaying a next / previous program of the current program.
[0037] In S104, when the current operation content is target operation content of the user, the washing device is controlled to process the clothes according to the target operation content.
[0038] The target operation content is operation content selected by the user through the touch strip and is used to instruct the washing device to start working. In the embodiment, when the touch instruction is to execute a current program, the current operation content of the user is determined as the target operation content.
[0039] For example, when the user needs to use the washing device to rinse clothes, the user can start the washing device by long-pressing the touch strip, and the non-touch display screen displays an initialization page for starting the washing device to the user. The initialization page displays various programs of the washing device, such as a standard washing program, a rinsing program, a large item washing program, and a mixed washing program. The standard washing program is selected by default, and the user can select other programs by sliding left or right. Assuming that the user selects the rinsing program by sliding left, after selecting the rinsing program, the user can make the non-touch screen display program information of the rinsing program, such as rinsing time, drum speed, and water temperature, to the user by single-clicking the touch strip. If the user confirms the rinsing program, the user can double-click the touch strip. After receiving the double-clicking of the touch strip by the user, the controller can determine that the touch instruction is to execute the current program. Further, the controller can determine the current operation content of the user as the target operation content, and control the washing device to start rinsing the clothes.
[0040] In the embodiment, when the touch strip senses the touch operation of the user, the operation type corresponding to the touch operation is sent to the controller. The operation type includes single-clicking, double-clicking, or sliding. The controller determines the touch instruction corresponding to the operation type. The current operation content of the user is determined based on the touch instruction, and the current operation content of the user is displayed on the non-touch screen. When the current operation content is target operation content of the user, the washing device is controlled to process the clothes according to the target operation content. The technical solution of the embodiment can sense the operation of the user through the touch strip and display the operation of the user through the non-touch screen. The user can control the washing device to process the clothes through the touch strip simply and conveniently, the cost is low, and the user experience is improved.
[0041] Figure 3 A second flowchart of the washing device control method provided in the application is shown in FIG. 2. The specific method can be as follows. Figure 3As shown, the method can include the following steps:
[0042] S301, when a touch operation of a user is sensed through the touch bar, sending an operation type corresponding to the touch operation to a controller.
[0043] The operation type includes single click, double click, or sliding.
[0044] S302, determining a touch instruction corresponding to the operation type by the controller.
[0045] In an optional embodiment, the controller pre-stores touch instructions corresponding to respective operation types. When the controller receives an operation type of a touch operation of a user, the operation instruction can be matched with the pre-stored touch instructions corresponding to respective operation types, so as to determine the touch instruction corresponding to the operation type. In the embodiment of the present scheme, optionally, when the operation type is single click, the touch instruction is determined to be selection of a current program; when the operation type is double click, the touch instruction is determined to be execution of the current program; and when the operation type is sliding, the touch instruction is determined to be switching of the current program.
[0046] The current program is one to-be-operated program in programs not displayed by the touch screen. When the touch instruction is selection of the current program, it indicates that the user needs to select the current program and view program information of the current program. When the touch instruction is switching of the current program, it indicates that the user needs to view a previous program or a next program of the current program. In the embodiment of the present scheme, optionally, the operation type further includes long press, and when the operation type is long press, the current running state of the laundry device is adjusted by the controller.
[0047] The running state of the laundry device includes shutdown, standby, running, and adjustment. Specifically, when a duration of touch or press of the touch bar by the user exceeds a first preset duration and does not exceed a second preset duration, the operation type is determined to be long press according to the touch operation of the user. When the operation type is long press, it indicates that the user needs to adjust the current running state of the laundry device.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present scheme, optionally, the current running state of the laundry device is adjusted by the controller, including: when the current working state of the laundry device is the shutdown state, the current working state of the laundry device is adjusted to the standby state; when the current working state of the laundry device is the running state, the working state of the laundry device is adjusted to the pause state; and when the current working state of the laundry device is the standby state, the working state of the laundry device is adjusted to the shutdown state.
[0049] The standby state is a state in which the laundry device is turned on but does not run any program. The running state is a state in which the laundry device is running a program. For example, when the laundry device is in a power-on but power-off state, the controller of the laundry device is in a normal working state. When the user long-presses any position of the touch strip, the controller can determine, through the touch operation of the user, that the operation type is long-pressing, and further, the controller can adjust the laundry device from the power-off state to the standby state.
[0050] For example, when the laundry device is washing clothes for the user, if the touch strip receives the touch operation of the user and the operation type is long-pressing, the controller can control the laundry device to pause the washing. When the laundry device is in a power-on state but does not run any program, that is, the laundry device is in a standby state, if the touch strip receives the touch operation of the user and the operation type is long-pressing, the controller can control the laundry device to power off.
[0051] In the above steps, the touch instruction corresponding to the touch operation can be accurately determined by the controller, which lays a foundation for the laundry device to provide services that meet the user's needs according to the touch instruction, and further improves the user experience.
[0052] S303, acquire the current display page of the non-touch screen.
[0053] The current display page is a page that the non-touch screen is currently displaying for the user. For example, when the laundry device is washing clothes, the non-touch screen can display a page showing information of the washing clothes, such as washing progress and washing time. When the laundry device is in a standby state and the user selects a washing program, the current display page of the non-touch screen can display various parameters in the washing program, such as washing agent addition amount and washing water temperature.
[0054] In an optional embodiment, when the controller determines the touch instruction corresponding to the operation type, the controller can acquire the current display page of the non-touch screen, so as to determine whether the non-touch screen can adjust the current display page according to the touch instruction of the user.
[0055] S304, match the touch instruction with all touch instructions corresponding to the current display page of the non-touch screen that are determined in advance, to obtain a matching result.
[0056] In an optional embodiment, the controller stores various touch instructions corresponding to various display pages of the non-touch screen. When the controller determines the touch instruction corresponding to the operation type, the controller can match the touch instruction with all touch instructions corresponding to the current display page, and obtain a matching result.
[0057] For example, the laundry device is in a standby state, and the current display page of the non-touch screen is displaying programs that the laundry device can support, such as washing, rinsing, and standard washing. The controller can determine, according to the current display page, that the corresponding touch instruction is switching the current program or selecting the current program. Then, when the touch instruction of the user is to execute the current program, it can be determined that the matching result is a matching failure. When the touch instruction of the user is to switch the current program or select the current program, it is determined that the matching result is a matching success.
[0058] S305, when the matching result is a matching success, determining the current operation content of the user based on the touch instruction, and displaying the current operation content of the user on the non-touch screen.
[0059] The operation content is determined by the controller according to the touch instruction, and needs to be displayed as content on the non-touch screen. In the embodiment of the present application, when the touch instruction is to select the current program, the non-touch screen displays the program information of the current program. When the touch instruction is to switch the current program, the non-touch screen switches the page displaying the current program to the page displaying the next / previous program of the current program.
[0060] The program information includes selection parameters corresponding to the program, subprogram items, and the like. When the touch instruction is to select the current program, it indicates that the user needs to view the program information of the program, and the non-touch screen can display the program information of the current program. When the touch instruction is to switch the current program, it indicates that the user needs to view the next program or the previous program of the current program, and the controller can control the non-touch screen to switch the page displaying the current program to the page displaying the next program or the previous program of the current program.
[0061] For example, the laundry device is in a standby state, and the non-touch screen displays programs supported by the laundry device, such as standard washing, rinsing, dehydration, mixed washing, and mite removal. The current display page is a display page of standard washing, and when the user slides the touch bar to the left, the controller can determine that the touch instruction is to switch the current program, and determine, according to the sliding direction of the user sliding the touch bar, that the user needs to view the next program of the current program, and then the controller can control the non-touch screen to switch the current display page to a page displaying the rinsing program.
[0062] In the above steps, the laundry device can display the current operation content of the user on the non-touch screen according to the matching result of the touch instruction, visualize the touch operation of the user, avoid the situation of the user accidentally touching the touch bar, and improve the user experience.
[0063] S306, when the current operation content is the target operation content of the user, controlling the laundry device to process the clothes according to the target operation content.
[0064] In this embodiment, when a touch operation of a user is sensed through the touch bar, an operation type corresponding to the touch operation is sent to the controller. The operation type includes single click, double click, or sliding. The controller determines a touch instruction corresponding to the operation type. The current display page of the non-touch screen is obtained. The touch instruction is matched with all touch instructions corresponding to the current display page of the non-touch screen to obtain a matching result. When the matching result is a matching success, the current operation content of the user is determined based on the touch instruction, and the current operation content of the user is displayed on the non-touch screen. When the current operation content is target operation content of the user, the washing equipment is controlled to process clothes according to the target operation content. The technical solution of this embodiment can sense the operation of the user through the touch bar, and display the operation of the user through the non-touch screen. The user can simply and conveniently control the washing equipment to process clothes through the touch bar, and the cost is low, and the user experience is improved.
