Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of equipment control technology, specifically providing a shared washing equipment and its operation control method and apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Shared laundry equipment, such as shared washing machines, often faces problems in practical applications, such as rough handling by users or lack of reporting for repairs when malfunctions occur. This increases wear and tear on the equipment, reducing its lifespan and hindering its promotion and application. If each shared device were assigned a dedicated maintenance person for monitoring and maintenance, it would obviously increase maintenance costs, which would also be detrimental to the promotion and application of shared laundry equipment.

[0003] Accordingly, there is a need in the field for a new operation control scheme for shared laundry equipment to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects, the present invention is proposed to provide a shared laundry equipment and its operation control method and apparatus that solve or at least partially solve the technical problem of how to reduce the wear and tear of shared laundry equipment at low cost and extend the equipment life of shared laundry equipment.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an operation control method for a shared laundry facility, the method comprising:

[0006] Before controlling the operation of the shared laundry equipment, identify the identity information of the user currently using the shared laundry equipment, and obtain the current user's account incentive value based on the identity information;

[0007] Identify the current user's device operation behavior;

[0008] Update the current user's account incentive value based on the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the device operation behavior;

[0009] If the updated account incentive value is greater than or equal to the first threshold, then the shared laundry equipment is controlled to operate; otherwise, the shared laundry equipment is not controlled to operate.

[0010] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned operation control method for shared laundry equipment, the equipment operation behavior includes preset harmful behaviors that are detrimental to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment and beneficial behaviors that are beneficial to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment, wherein the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the harmful behavior is less than zero, and the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the beneficial behavior is greater than zero.

[0011] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned operation control method for shared laundry equipment, the step of "otherwise, not controlling the operation of the shared laundry equipment" specifically includes:

[0012] Determine whether harmful behavior has been identified;

[0013] If the harmful behavior is detected, a prompt message for correcting the behavior is output, wherein the prompt message includes at least the behavioral information of the harmful behavior and the corrective measures for the harmful behavior;

[0014] Detect whether the harmful behavior has been corrected;

[0015] If the behavior is corrected, the shared laundry equipment will be controlled to operate and the current user's account incentive value will be updated again based on the absolute value of the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the harmful behavior.

[0016] If the issue is not rectified, the operation of the shared laundry equipment will not be controlled.

[0017] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned operation control method for shared laundry equipment, the step of "otherwise, not controlling the operation of the shared laundry equipment" specifically includes:

[0018] Determine whether harmful behavior has been identified;

[0019] If no beneficial action is identified, a prompt message for performing a beneficial action is output, wherein the prompt message includes at least the action information of the currently executable beneficial action;

[0020] Detect whether the beneficial behavior has been performed;

[0021] If executed, the shared laundry equipment will be controlled to operate and the current user's account incentive value will be updated based on the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the beneficial behavior.

[0022] If not executed, the operation of the shared washing equipment will not be controlled.

[0023] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned operation control method for shared laundry equipment, the method further includes:

[0024] Identify the user's device operation behavior after the shared laundry equipment starts running, and update the user's account incentive value again after the shared laundry equipment finishes running, based on the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the device operation behavior;

[0025] The updated account incentive value is sent to a preset terminal device, and it is determined whether the account incentive value is greater than or equal to a second threshold, wherein the second threshold is greater than the first threshold.

[0026] If the account incentive value is greater than or equal to the second threshold, a prompt message is sent to the terminal device to redeem account value using the account incentive value.

[0027] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned operation control method for shared laundry equipment, the method further includes:

[0028] If the account incentive value is less than the second threshold, then the behavior information of beneficial behavior and the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the beneficial behavior, as well as the behavior information of harmful behavior and the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the harmful behavior, are sent to the preset terminal device, wherein the second threshold is greater than the first threshold.

[0029] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned operation control method for shared laundry equipment, the step of "identifying the current user's equipment operation behavior" specifically includes:

[0030] Images of the internal and / or external spaces of the shared laundry equipment are acquired using an image acquisition device. Behavior detection is performed on the images to obtain the current user's equipment operation behavior when using the shared laundry equipment.

[0031] In one technical solution of the above-mentioned operation control method for shared laundry equipment, the identity information is the current user's mobile phone number, facial information, or fingerprint information.

[0032] In a second aspect, an operation control device for a shared laundry equipment is provided. The control device includes a processor and a storage device, wherein the storage device is adapted to store multiple program codes, which are adapted to be loaded and run by the processor to execute the operation control method for the shared laundry equipment described in any of the above-described technical solutions.

[0033] In a third aspect, a shared laundry equipment is provided, the equipment including the shared laundry equipment operation control device described in the above-mentioned shared laundry equipment operation control device technical solution.

[0034] The above-described technical solutions of the present invention have at least one or more of the following beneficial effects:

[0035] In implementing the technical solution of the present invention, the operation control method of the shared laundry equipment can identify the identity information of the user currently using the shared laundry equipment before controlling the operation of the shared laundry equipment, and obtain the account incentive value of the current user based on the identity information; identify the current user's equipment operation behavior, and update the current user's account incentive value according to the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the equipment operation behavior; if the updated account incentive value is greater than or equal to a first threshold, then control the operation of the shared laundry equipment; otherwise, do not control the operation of the shared laundry equipment.

[0036] Different operating behaviors can lead to varying degrees of equipment wear and tear on shared laundry equipment. Therefore, different incentive adjustment values ​​can be set for different operating behaviors. For example, operating behaviors can include preset harmful behaviors that are detrimental to the maintenance of shared laundry equipment and beneficial behaviors that are beneficial to the maintenance of shared laundry equipment. The incentive adjustment value for harmful behaviors is less than zero, while the incentive adjustment value for beneficial behaviors is greater than zero.

[0037] Based on the above implementation method, the user's account incentive value is updated according to the incentive value corresponding to the user's equipment operation behavior when using the shared laundry equipment. If the account incentive value is greater than or equal to a first threshold, it indicates that the user's equipment operation behavior causes relatively little damage to the shared laundry equipment. Therefore, the operation of the shared laundry equipment can be controlled to meet the user's washing needs. If the account incentive value is less than the first threshold, it indicates that the user's equipment operation behavior causes relatively large damage to the shared laundry equipment. In order to reduce equipment damage and extend equipment life, the operation of the shared laundry equipment will not be controlled. By updating the user's account incentive value through equipment operation behavior and controlling whether to run the shared laundry equipment based on the account incentive value, users can be guided to perform more equipment operation behaviors that generate less equipment damage when using the shared laundry equipment, thereby extending the equipment life of the shared laundry equipment.

[0042] Figure 4 This is a schematic flowchart of the main steps of the operation control method for a shared washing device according to another embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0043] Some embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0044] In the description of this invention, a "processor" can include hardware, software, or a combination of both. A module can include hardware circuitry, various suitable sensors, communication ports, memory, and may also include software components, such as program code, or a combination of software and hardware. A processor can be a central processing unit, microprocessor, image processor, digital signal processor, or any other suitable processor. The processor has data and / or signal processing capabilities. The processor can be implemented in software, in hardware, or a combination of both.

[0045] See appendix Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating the main steps of an operation control method for a shared washing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the operation control method of the shared washing equipment in this embodiment of the invention mainly includes the following steps S101 to S107.

[0046] Step S101: Before controlling the operation of the shared laundry equipment, identify the identity information of the user currently using the shared laundry equipment.

[0047] Shared laundry equipment refers to laundry equipment provided for use by different users. This equipment includes, but is not limited to, washing machines and washer-dryer combos.

[0048] User identification information refers to information that uniquely identifies the user currently using the shared laundry equipment. In some implementations, this identification information may be the user's mobile phone number, facial information, or fingerprint information. In these implementations, the shared laundry equipment may include an information entry device, through which the user can enter their mobile phone number, facial information, or fingerprint information before using the shared laundry equipment. The information entry device includes, but is not limited to, an input keyboard, a touch screen, a facial image acquisition device, and a fingerprint acquisition device.

[0049] Step S102: Obtain the current user's account incentive value based on the identity information.

[0050] Each user has an account, and each account stores an account incentive value. This incentive value is dynamically updated based on the user's operational behavior while using the shared laundry equipment. The size of the incentive value represents the user's contribution to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment. A higher incentive value indicates a greater contribution to maintenance and less wear and tear on the equipment due to the user's actions. Conversely, a lower incentive value indicates a smaller contribution and greater wear and tear on the equipment due to the user's actions.

[0051] In some implementations, device operation behaviors may include preset harmful behaviors that are detrimental to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment and beneficial behaviors that are beneficial to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment. The incentive value adjustment for harmful behaviors is less than zero, and the incentive value adjustment for beneficial behaviors is greater than zero. When a user's device operation behavior is beneficial, because the incentive value adjustment for beneficial behaviors is greater than zero, the user's account incentive value will increase after being updated according to the incentive value adjustment for beneficial behaviors, indicating an increase in the user's contribution to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment. When a user's device operation behavior is harmful, because the incentive value adjustment for harmful behaviors is less than zero, the user's account incentive value will decrease after being updated according to the incentive value adjustment for harmful behaviors, indicating a decrease in the user's contribution to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment.

[0052] It should be noted that those skilled in the art can adjust the incentive values ​​for different equipment operation behaviors based on factors such as the importance of maintaining the shared washing equipment, and this invention does not impose specific limitations on these adjustments.

[0053] Step S103: Identify the current user's device operation behavior.

[0054] Shared laundry equipment can be equipped with various identification devices to identify the current user's equipment operation behavior.

[0055] In some implementations, the identification device can be a weighing device that detects the weight of the clothes to be washed in the shared laundry equipment. If the weight is greater than or equal to a threshold, the identified equipment operation behavior is determined to be overloaded; if the weight is less than the threshold, the identified equipment operation behavior is determined to be non-overloaded. Overloaded use is a harmful behavior, and its corresponding incentive value adjustment is less than zero; non-overloaded use is a beneficial behavior, and its corresponding incentive value adjustment is greater than zero.

[0056] In some implementations, the recognition device can be an image acquisition device. This device acquires images of the interior and / or exterior of the shared laundry equipment, performs behavior detection on the images, and obtains the user's operational behavior while using the shared laundry equipment. In these implementations, model training methods from the field of machine learning can be used to train a behavior recognition model using image samples containing different operational behaviors. This behavior recognition model is then used to identify the operational behavior in the acquired images. For example, if an image sample includes the interior space of the shared laundry equipment and contains shoes, then the operational behavior represented by the image sample is washing shoes. The behavior recognition model trained on the image sample can then identify whether the behavior of washing shoes exists based on the image of the interior space of the shared laundry equipment. Since shared laundry equipment is provided for use by different users, washing shoes would increase the dirtiness of the shared laundry equipment and affect the health of other users. Therefore, washing shoes is also a harmful behavior, and its corresponding incentive value adjustment is less than zero.

[0057] It should be noted that although the embodiments of the present invention only provide the above-mentioned weighing device and image acquisition device as two specific identification devices, those skilled in the art will understand that, without departing from the technical principles of the present invention, they can use other types of identification devices, as long as the desired equipment operation behavior can be identified through these identification devices. The technical solutions after modifying or replacing the above-mentioned identification devices still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0058] Step S104: Update the current user's account incentive value according to the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the device operation behavior.

[0059] Specifically, the incentive value adjustment corresponding to the device operation behavior is added to the current user's account incentive value to obtain the updated account incentive value.

[0060] In some implementations, a cloud server can be used to store the incentive value adjustment amounts corresponding to different device operation behaviors. After a device operation behavior is identified, it is sent to the cloud server, and the incentive value adjustment amounts are received from the cloud server. The current user's account incentive value is then updated based on the received incentive value adjustment amounts. In other implementations, a cloud server can also be used to store the incentive value adjustment amounts corresponding to different device operation behaviors. After a device operation behavior is identified, it is sent to the cloud server, which updates the current user's account incentive value based on the incentive value adjustment amounts corresponding to these device operation behaviors. Then, the updated account incentive value is received from the cloud server.

[0061] Step S105: Determine whether the updated account incentive value is greater than or equal to the first threshold; if yes, proceed to step S106; if no, proceed to step S107.

[0062] Step S106: Control the operation of the shared washing equipment.

[0063] Step S107: Do not control the operation of the shared washing equipment.

[0064] When the updated account incentive value is greater than or equal to the first threshold, it indicates that the current user has made a significant contribution to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment, and their use of the shared laundry equipment can be permitted; therefore, the operation of the shared laundry equipment will be controlled. When the updated account incentive value is less than the first threshold, it indicates that the current user has made a relatively small contribution to the maintenance of the shared laundry equipment, and their use of the shared laundry equipment can be prohibited; therefore, the operation of the shared laundry equipment will not be controlled.

[0065] Based on the methods described in steps S101 to S107 above, users can be guided to perform more equipment operation behaviors that result in lower equipment wear and tear when using shared laundry equipment, thus contributing more to the maintenance of shared laundry equipment and extending its lifespan. Therefore, even without assigning dedicated maintenance personnel to monitor and maintain each shared device, it is possible to maintain shared laundry equipment at low cost and extend its lifespan.

[0066] The following provides further explanation of steps S106 and S107.

[0067] See appendix Figure 2 In one embodiment of step S106 above, after determining that the updated account incentive value is greater than the first threshold, it can be further determined whether the updated account incentive value is less than the second threshold (the second threshold is greater than the first threshold). Based on the determination result, relevant prompt information (including but not limited to voice and text information) regarding the account incentive value can be selectively sent to preset terminal devices (including but not limited to the user's mobile phone, tablet, smartwatch, and human-computer interaction device of shared washing equipment, etc.) so that the user can be informed of the account incentive value in a timely manner. Specifically, relevant prompt information regarding the account incentive value can be sent to preset terminal devices through the following steps S108 to S110 so that the user can be informed of the account incentive value in a timely manner.

[0068] Step S108: Determine whether the updated account incentive value is less than the second threshold.

[0069] If the value is less than the second threshold, proceed to step S109; if the value is greater than or equal to the second threshold, proceed to step S110.

[0070] Step S109: Send the behavior information of beneficial behaviors and the corresponding incentive value adjustment amount to the terminal device, as well as the behavior information of harmful behaviors and the corresponding incentive value adjustment amount.

[0071] While an updated account incentive value greater than the first threshold allows users to use shared laundry facilities smoothly, an account incentive value less than the second threshold indicates that the account incentive value is still relatively low. By sending this information to the terminal device, users can be guided to perform more beneficial behaviors and fewer harmful behaviors, thereby continuously increasing the account incentive value and ensuring smooth use of shared laundry facilities in the future.

[0072] Step S110: Send a prompt message to the terminal device to redeem account bonus value using account incentive value.

[0073] Account value-added services can include physical items and virtual items. Physical items can be things like laundry detergent, while virtual items can be the number of times you can use the shared laundry facilities for free.

[0074] If the account incentive value is greater than or equal to the second threshold, it indicates that the account incentive value is relatively high. By sending this information to the terminal device, users can be guided to perform more beneficial behaviors and fewer harmful behaviors, so that the account incentive value continues to increase, ensuring that they can use the shared laundry equipment smoothly in the future.

[0075] Furthermore, in some implementations, users can also proactively query their account incentive value through their terminal device and redeem it for account bonuses. Simultaneously, they can also proactively query information on beneficial behaviors and the corresponding incentive value adjustments, as well as information on harmful behaviors and the corresponding incentive value adjustments.

[0076] The above is a detailed explanation of step S105. Step S107 will be explained below.

[0077] See appendix Figure 3 In one embodiment of step S107 above, after determining in step S106 that the shared washing equipment should not be controlled, it can be further determined whether there is any harmful behavior in the equipment operation behavior identified in step S103. If harmful behavior exists, the user can be prompted to correct the harmful behavior, and then the operation of the shared washing equipment can be selectively controlled based on the correction result. Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, step S107 further includes the following steps S1071 to S1076.

[0078] Step S1071: Determine whether harmful behavior has been identified.

[0079] If identified, proceed to step S1072; if not identified, proceed to step S1076.

[0080] Step S1072: Output a prompt message indicating the correct behavior.

[0081] The warning message should include at least information about the harmful behavior and corrective measures for that behavior. The behavioral information refers to details that identify the specific type of harmful behavior and its content. The corrective measures describe how to correct the corresponding harmful behavior. For example, if the harmful behavior is overloading, the corrective measure could be "reduce the amount of laundry to be washed." If the harmful behavior is washing shoes, the corrective measure could be "remove the shoes."

[0082] Step S1073: Detect whether the harmful behavior has been corrected.

[0083] If the error is corrected, proceed to step S1074; if the error is not corrected, proceed to step S1076.

[0084] Step S1074: Control the operation of the shared washing equipment.

[0085] Step S1075: Update the current user's account incentive value based on the absolute value of the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the harmful behavior.

[0086] Since the incentive value adjustment for harmful behavior is less than zero, the current user's account incentive value has already been updated once in step S104 based on the incentive value adjustment for harmful behavior, meaning a certain value has been subtracted from the current user's account incentive value. Now that the harmful behavior has been corrected, the absolute value of the incentive value adjustment for the harmful behavior can be added back to the current user's account incentive value. For example, if the current user's account incentive value was 100 before step S104, and step S103 detected overloading as a harmful behavior with an incentive value adjustment of -10, then after updating the current user's account incentive value in step S104, the account incentive value becomes 90. If the overloading is corrected at this point, then after updating the current user's account incentive value again, the account incentive value becomes 100.

[0087] Step S1076: Do not control the operation of the shared washing equipment.

[0088] The methods described in steps S1071 to S1076 can not only meet the needs of users in using shared laundry equipment as much as possible, but also guide users to correct harmful behaviors, perform more equipment operation behaviors that generate less equipment damage, make more contributions to the maintenance of shared laundry equipment, and extend the equipment life of shared laundry equipment.

[0089] Further, please refer to the appendix. Figure 4In another embodiment of step S107 above, after no harmful behavior is identified through step S1071, the user can be prompted to perform beneficial behavior, and then the operation of the shared washing equipment can be selectively controlled based on the performance result. For example... Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, in addition to including the aforementioned steps S1071 to S1076, step S1077 may also include the following steps S1077 to S1080 after no harmful behavior is identified through step S1071.

[0090] Step S1077: Output a prompt message indicating that beneficial actions should be performed.

[0091] The prompt information should include at least the behavioral information of the currently executable beneficial behavior, where behavioral information refers to the content that can indicate what kind of behavior is beneficial and what its content is.

[0092] Step S1078: Detect whether the beneficial behavior has been performed.

[0093] If executed, proceed to step S1079; if not executed, proceed to step S1076.

[0094] Step S1079: Control the operation of the shared washing equipment.

[0095] Step S1080: Update the current user's account incentive value according to the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the beneficial behavior, that is, add the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the beneficial behavior to the current user's account incentive value.

[0096] The method described in steps S1077 to S1080 can not only meet the needs of users in using shared laundry equipment as much as possible, but also guide users to perform beneficial behaviors, perform more equipment operation behaviors that generate less equipment wear and tear, make more contributions to the maintenance of shared laundry equipment, and extend the equipment life of shared laundry equipment.

[0097] In practical applications, some shared laundry equipment has a cleaning function. Activating this function after washing clothes helps maintain the equipment. Furthermore, shared laundry equipment may malfunction during operation; reporting malfunctions helps maintain the equipment. Therefore, user actions after the shared laundry equipment starts operating are crucial for its maintenance, reflecting the user's contribution. In another embodiment of the shared laundry equipment operation control method according to the present invention, in addition to steps S101 to S110, the method can also update the user's account incentive value after the shared laundry equipment has finished operating, based on the user's actions after the equipment started operating.

[0098] Specifically, in this embodiment, the device operation behavior of the current user after the shared laundry equipment starts running can be identified. After the shared laundry equipment finishes running, the user's account incentive value is updated again based on the incentive value adjustment amount corresponding to the device operation behavior. Furthermore, the updated account incentive value is sent to a preset terminal device, and it is determined whether the account incentive value is greater than or equal to a second threshold. If the account incentive value is greater than or equal to the second threshold, a prompt message is simultaneously sent to the terminal device to redeem account bonus value using the account incentive value.

[0099] Through the above embodiments, users can be further guided to perform beneficial behaviors, perform more equipment operation behaviors that generate less equipment wear and tear, make greater contributions to the maintenance of shared laundry equipment, and extend the equipment life of shared laundry equipment.

[0100] It should be noted that although the steps in the above embodiments are described in a specific order, those skilled in the art will understand that in order to achieve the effects of the present invention, different steps do not necessarily have to be executed in such an order. They can be executed simultaneously (in parallel) or in other orders, and these variations are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

The computer program can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium, and when executed by a processor, it can implement the steps of the various method embodiments described above.
