Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of shower adjustment and control technology, and in particular, to a shower adjustment and control method, system, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional home shower water temperature control typically involves: 1) setting the temperature of the hot water heated by gas combustion at the gas water heater end (e.g., 42℃, 45℃); and 2) adjusting and controlling the mixing of hot water from the water heater with cold tap water via a rotating manifold at the showerhead end. Generally, after turning on the showerhead, the user needs to adjust the hot and cold water ratio (e.g., hot water on the left, cold water on the right) and water flow rate (e.g., pulling outwards increases the water flow, pushing inwards decreases the water flow) based on their experience and individual needs. This control method often presents three prominent problems in actual user life: 1) The shower water temperature is either too hot or too cold, requiring repeated manual fine-tuning, resulting in a very poor experience; 2) Different users in a household have different preferences for shower water temperature and volume, requiring the water distributor position to be readjusted according to individual needs after each use; 3) When the weather or ambient temperature and humidity change non-seasonally, the temperature and humidity of the bathing environment, the comfortable temperature for the human body, and the tap water supply temperature all change. However, the hot water temperature setting originally set on the gas water heater cannot be automatically adjusted in real time. Users need to manually set it outdoors (e.g., on a small balcony) after noticing the change. At the same time, the rotating water distributor of the shower head also needs to be adjusted once or even multiple times, resulting in a poor bathing experience and potentially causing users (e.g., the elderly, children) to catch a cold or get sick.

[0008] Furthermore, the water flow adjustment coefficient It is obtained from the following formula:

[0009] Furthermore, step S52 is followed by the following step: S53, Obtain the water temperature reading from the hot water supply line at the shower end. Temperature readings of the cold water circuit in the shower area Water temperature measurement values ​​for mixed pipe water circuit ; S54 verifies the water temperature using a water temperature verification formula, as follows: ; S55, judgment Is it 1? If not, then based on the water temperature calibration results The water temperature readings for both the hot and cold water circuits at the shower end were adjusted. The adjusted water temperature readings for the hot and cold water circuits at the shower end are as follows: and and return to step S52, where ; ; This is the water temperature adjustment coefficient; If so, proceed to the next step.

[0010] Furthermore, step S6 specifically includes: S61, set detection time nodes sequentially at equal time intervals, and obtain the water temperature detection values ​​of the mixed pipe water circuit at each detection time node. The water temperature detection value of the mixed pipe water circuit at the k-th time node is expressed as: k is a positive integer; S62, for each time point Calculations are performed to obtain the expected value. : ; in This represents the water temperature reading of the mixed water pipe system at the (k+1)th time node. The time interval between adjacent time nodes; S63, if q consecutive If all values ​​are 1, then the temperature of the mixed water reaches the expected level.

[0011] Furthermore, after step S6, the following steps are also included: S7 receives voice control information from the user and adjusts the shower system.

Finally, the system only dispenses water when the user reaches the desired temperature to avoid repeated adjustments by the user due to insufficient water temperature, which would negatively impact the user experience.

[0015] In addition to the objectives, features, and advantages described above, the present invention has other objectives, features, and advantages. The invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the figures. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The accompanying drawings, which form part of this application, are used to provide a further understanding of the invention. The illustrative embodiments of the invention and their descriptions are used to explain the invention and do not constitute an undue limitation of the invention. In the drawings: Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart of a shower adjustment and control method according to the present invention; Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating step S5 of a shower adjustment and control method according to the present invention; Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating step S6 of a shower adjustment and control method according to the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0017] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

[0018] 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 a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0020] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this invention is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed by this invention.

[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides a shower adjustment and control method, including steps S1, S2, S3, S4, S5, and S6. Typically, step S1 begins after the user enters the shower space and turns on the shower.

[0022] S1, detect and obtain the current ambient temperature. and ambient humidity To determine the current environmental type, temperature and humidity sensors are typically installed at a height of 1.5 meters or more above the floor in the shower area to detect the ambient temperature and humidity. These sensors then transmit the data to the smart home control system.

[0023] Weather throughout the year can typically be categorized based on ambient temperature and humidity, such as the four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter. Further refinement is possible, such as categorizing by spring environment type, summer environment type, autumn environment type, winter environment type, transitional spring / summer environment type, transitional summer / autumn environment type, transitional autumn / winter environment type, and transitional winter / spring environment type. The more detailed the categorization, the more precise the control, allowing for a more suitable showering experience for users based on weather changes.

[0024] S2, identify the user. If identification is successful, obtain the user's shower history settings information, including the environment type and the corresponding user shower settings. The shower settings include the user's preset shower temperature and a reference temperature. and reference humidity Use the user's preset shower temperature as the baseline temperature setting. User shower settings are typically based on the settings from the most recent use within the current environment type. Specifically, the user's preset shower temperature, baseline temperature, and baseline humidity are the shower temperature, ambient temperature, and ambient humidity at the time of the most recent use within the corresponding environment type. For example, in the first environment type, if the user's most recent shower temperature was 40 degrees Celsius, the ambient humidity was 40%, and the temperature was 26 degrees Celsius, then the user's preset shower temperature, baseline temperature, and baseline humidity for the first environment type would be 40 degrees Celsius, 26 degrees Celsius, and 40%, respectively. Therefore, the user shower settings can be updated based on user adjustments to ensure they match user habits. Typically, a user recognition module, which can be a voice system, identifies the user. Additionally, user shower settings may also include the start / stop position. The opening degree of the outlet valve in the mixing pipe. When a user needs to shower, there's no need to manually operate the shower manifold switch; they can control the shower head via voice (e.g., repeating the voice wake-up phrase "Xiaoling, Xiaoling, turn on the shower"), where a voice system installed in the shower area can recognize the user's voice. After recognizing the voice, the system converts it into a command, which is then transmitted through the smart home control system to automatically open the shower manifold handle. The left and right travel positions and the opening degree automatically correspond to the most recent opening position used by the voiceprint user n (i.e., user number n, voiceprint recognition user number n=1,2,3,…,N) (the angle between the center line of the shower manifold handle and the vertical line to the ground at this time) and the opening degree of the outlet valve in the mixing pipe. .

[0025] Of course, in some embodiments, the user identification module can also be a face recognition module to perform face recognition on the user.

[0026] S3, based on the current ambient temperature and ambient humidity and the corresponding reference temperature and reference humidity , for the reference set temperature Optimize and adjust to achieve the optimal shower temperature. By comparing the current ambient temperature and humidity with the reference temperature and humidity, the following can be determined: Optimization is implemented to comprehensively consider individual usage habits and weather changes when adjusting shower temperature, thereby improving the user experience. Furthermore, the categorization of environments ensures minimal differences in temperature and humidity within each type, enabling precise control. Without environment categorization, adjustments would be based on vastly different weather conditions, leading to unstable settings and negatively impacting user experience. For example, if the weather changes abruptly from high to low, the low-temperature shower setting would be based on the user's high-temperature shower settings, resulting in significant discrepancies and making it difficult to achieve a comfortable setting. However, with environment categorization, shower parameter adjustments are based on settings for the same environment type, minimizing differences and allowing for minor adjustments, thus minimizing user discomfort.

[0027] S4 will optimize shower temperature The information is sent to the water heater, triggering the water heater to heat the water flow.

[0028] S5, sequentially verify the water flow rate and water temperature detection values ​​of the shower water circuit.

[0029] S6: Once the temperature of the mixed water reaches the expected level, a temperature compliance notification will be issued.

[0030] This invention provides a shower adjustment and control method that identifies users and reads their shower history settings to obtain their shower habits. This allows for customized shower settings adjustments based on different users, eliminating the need for each user to adjust the settings before each use. Furthermore, the method adjusts settings according to the current ambient temperature. and ambient humidity Determine the current environment type based on the current environment temperature. and ambient humidity and the corresponding reference temperature and reference humidity , for the reference set temperature Optimize and adjust to achieve the optimal shower temperature. The system adaptively adjusts to weather changes to ensure that weather conditions do not affect the user's showering experience and prevent users from having to go outdoors to adjust the shower temperature due to weather changes. It also verifies the water flow and temperature detection values ​​of the shower water circuit to check the detection system and prevent large deviations that could affect the control of shower parameters. Finally, the system only dispenses water when the user reaches the desired temperature to avoid repeated adjustments by the user due to insufficient water temperature, which would negatively impact the user experience.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, the optimized shower temperature It can be obtained through the following formula: ; Where W1 is the weighting adjustment coefficient for temperature and W2 is the weighting adjustment coefficient for humidity, and W1 and W2 can be optimized and determined through experiments. In a specific embodiment of the present invention, W1 is 1.07 and W2 is 1.221.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present invention, step S2 further includes: if identification fails, recording the user information for easy matching in subsequent use; and obtaining the reference temperature corresponding to the current environment type of the system's initial shower setting information based on the system's initial shower setting information. Reference humidity and reference set temperature .

[0033] When a user uses the system for the first time, since there is no historical data to support the settings, a relatively general set value is usually used as the initial shower setting information. The initial shower setting information includes the environment type and the corresponding baseline temperature. Reference temperature and reference humidity This allows for automatic adjustment and control even during initial use. Of course, when a user uses the system for the first time in a certain environment, the initial shower settings will also be needed. Only after the user has used the system once in that environment will the initial shower settings be replaced by the shower temperature, ambient temperature, and ambient humidity settings used during that time, serving as the shower history settings for the next use.

[0034] Initial data can be set based on the usage habits of most people. For example, scientific research shows that the optimal bathing temperature for the human body is between 35℃ and 42℃. In winter, the temperature preference is higher (e.g., 39.5℃ to 42℃), and in summer, the temperature preference is lower (e.g., 35℃ to 39.5℃).

[0035] In some embodiments of the present invention, step S5 includes steps S51 and S52.

[0036] S51, Obtain the water flow rate detection value of the hot water circuit at the shower water end. 1. Water flow rate measurement values ​​of the cold water circuit in the shower. Water flow rate measurement values ​​for mixed pipe water circuits Water flow sensors are installed in the hot water circuit, cold water circuit, and mixing pipe circuit of the shower to detect the corresponding water flow data.

[0037] S52, the water flow rate is verified using the water flow rate verification formula, which is as follows: ; 1 indicates normal, 0 indicates abnormal.

[0038] Based on the water flow verification results The water flow rate of the mixed pipe circuit was adjusted, and the adjusted water flow rate of the mixed pipe circuit is: : ; in The water flow adjustment coefficient is used to verify the water flow of the mixing pipe circuit, thereby improving the accuracy of subsequent control. The most important water flow is the water flow of the mixing pipe circuit, which is related to the water flow of the hot water circuit and the water flow of the cold water circuit at the shower end. The overall verification can be achieved by verifying the water flow of the mixing pipe circuit.

[0039] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, the water flow adjustment coefficient It is obtained from the following formula: ; Based on the data deviation error value, set The value, The value can be obtained through multiple experiments and adjustments; it is an empirical value and can be adjusted according to needs and the actual environment. Of course, it can also be used as... At that time, the adjusted replace Return to step S52 until... The value is 1, thus ensuring the accuracy of the verification result.

[0040] In a further embodiment of the present invention, steps S52 are followed by steps S53 and S54.

[0041] S53, Obtain the water temperature reading from the hot water supply line at the shower end. Temperature readings of the cold water circuit in the shower area Water temperature measurement values ​​for mixed pipe water circuit ; S54 verifies the water temperature using a water temperature verification formula, as follows: ; S55, judgment Is it 1? If not, then based on the water temperature calibration results The water temperature readings for both the hot and cold water circuits at the shower end were adjusted. The adjusted water temperature readings for the hot and cold water circuits at the shower end are as follows: and and return to step S52 until and The values ​​are all 1, so when returning, Will replace , Will replace The verification is performed using a verification formula. Returning to step S52 is primarily to ensure that both water flow and water temperature pass the verification simultaneously, avoiding mutual interference. Since the water temperature in the mixing pipe is typically adjusted based on the temperatures of the hot and cold water circuits, therefore... and Performing calibration and adjustment is beneficial to the accuracy and precision of subsequent temperature control.

[0042] in ; ; This is the water temperature adjustment coefficient; and The numerical value can be expressed by the following formula: ; ; If so, proceed to the next step.

[0043] Specifically, in a specific embodiment of the present invention, ;

[0044] The value can be obtained through multiple experiments and adjustments. It is an empirical value and can be adjusted according to needs and actual environment.

[0045] In a further embodiment of the present invention, step S6 specifically includes: S61, set detection time nodes sequentially at equal time intervals, and obtain the water temperature detection values ​​of the mixed pipe water circuit at each detection time node. The water temperature detection value of the mixed pipe water circuit at the k-th time node is expressed as: k is a positive integer; S62, for each time point Calculations are performed to obtain the expected value. : ; in This represents the water temperature reading of the mixed water pipe system at the (k+1)th time node. The time interval between adjacent time nodes. For example, a set value, such as 0.25 seconds, 0.5 seconds, or 1 second, is used in a specific embodiment of the present invention. Set to 0.5 seconds; S63, if q consecutive If the value of each q is 1, then the temperature of the mixed water reaches the expected value. q is a preset value; in a specific embodiment of the present invention, q is 4, and q consecutive values ​​represent the desired temperature. If all values ​​are 1, it means that the water temperature is within the expected range for several consecutive times, with small temperature fluctuations, making it suitable for hot water to be output for showering. In addition, when the temperature of the mixed water reaches the expected level, a voice module can be used to notify the user that "the water temperature has reached the ideal temperature and you can shower." The previous water flow needs to be discharged or returned through the return pipe. If the shower system has a return pipe, hot water can be output after the temperature is suitable.

[0046] In a further embodiment of the present invention, after step S6, the following step is also included: The S7 receives voice control information from the user to adjust the shower system. It can receive user voice control information via the voice system and send that information to the smart home control system.

[0047] For example, during use, users can use voice commands to control the water temperature and flow rate according to their actual perceived temperature and flow rate requirements (such as "a little higher / lower temperature", "a little more water", "a little less water", etc.), thereby achieving the purpose of water temperature and flow rate regulation. The voice system translates and converts the user's commands based on the voice recognition results. The water temperature regulation method can be based on formula (1), and the water flow rate regulation method can be based on formula (2): (1) in ; (2) in ; The angle between the center line of the current shower head manifold handle and the vertical line to the ground. This is the angle between the center line of the adjusted shower head manifold handle and the vertical line of the ground. This means that the original position is rotated 5 degrees to the left by the built-in motor (i.e., rotated 5 degrees counterclockwise). This indicates that the shower head has been rotated 5 degrees to the right (i.e., 5 degrees clockwise) from its original position using the built-in motor. Typically, the left end of the shower head manifold handle is for "hot water" and the right end is for "cold water". and These represent the leftmost and rightmost angles of the shower head manifold handle, respectively. The adjustment range cannot exceed these two angles. This indicates that the user's voice command to increase the temperature has been received. This indicates that the system has received a voice command from the user to lower the temperature. For example, if the user says "a little higher," the voice system can convert this into a command to raise the temperature and send it to the smart home control system. The smart home control system then controls the motor to rotate according to the command, thereby adjusting the angle of the shower head manifold handle.

[0048] This refers to the current opening degree of the outlet valve in the mixing pipe. The opening degree of the outlet valve of the mixing pipe after adjustment; This indicates that the absolute value of the valve opening has increased by 10% from the original valve opening. This indicates that the absolute value of the valve opening is reduced by 10% from the original valve opening. The system is set so that when the shower head is in use, the maximum valve opening is 100% and the minimum opening is 20% to avoid system malfunctions (such as the water heater shutting off). This indicates that the user's voice command to increase the water flow has been received. This indicates that the system has received a voice command from the user to reduce the water flow. For example, if the user says "more water / some more" at a certain moment, the voice system recognizes the voice command to increase the water flow and sends it to the smart home control system. The smart home control system then controls the opening of the outlet valve of the mixing pipe to increase by 10%.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present invention, a shower adjustment control method further includes the following steps: During the shower, the user measured the water temperature from the showerhead. When the water temperature reading in the mixed-pipe system exceeds the optimal bathing temperature range for the human body (i.e., outside of 35℃ to 42℃), the system automatically triggers a voice reminder, stating: "The current water temperature is..." The temperature is below the minimum comfortable temperature of 35°C. "The water temperature is currently ℃. For your health, please note that the water temperature may be low." or "The current water temperature is..." The temperature is higher than the maximum comfortable temperature of 42℃. "℃, for your health, please note that the water temperature may be high." When the user says, "Xiaoling, Xiaoling, turn off the shower / close the shower," the valve opening on the shower handle will... Automatically adjusted to 0%.

[0050] When the weather or ambient temperature and humidity change seasonally or non-seasonally, this invention effectively solves the problem of "showerhead water temperature being too hot or too cold, requiring repeated manual adjustments, resulting in a poor user experience" by monitoring ambient temperature and humidity and optimizing the settings of various sensors and the set water temperature. Through user recognition and memory, it identifies and remembers the usage habits of different users and the initial settings of the showerhead handle angle and valve opening, effectively solving the problem of "different users in a household having different preferences for showerhead water temperature and volume, requiring readjustment of the water distributor position after each use." Through smart home voice recognition and a smart home central control system, it enables intelligent opening, adjustment, and closing of the showerhead without manual adjustment, freeing up hands (such as for washing hair or other purposes) and improving the user experience. Furthermore, this invention thoughtfully considers the optimal bathing temperature range for the human body in the showerhead water temperature adjustment control logic, protecting the user's bathing health. This invention organically combines a traditional gas water heater, a shower system, and a smart home voice control system. It memorizes different user habits and initial settings, enabling automatic voice control during use, eliminating the need for manual operation and providing great convenience. Furthermore, it considers the ambient temperature and humidity of the space and adjusts the showerhead water temperature accordingly, ensuring a comfortable experience regardless of season or weather changes. Additionally, it optimizes the shower temperature and provides voice prompts during use.

[0051] The present invention also provides a shower control and adjustment system for implementing the above-mentioned shower adjustment and control method, including a detection system, an environment type confirmation module, a user identification module, an optimization adjustment module, an information sending module, a verification module, a prompt information sending module, and a shower system. Typically, the environment type confirmation module, user identification module, optimization adjustment module, information sending module, and verification module are integrated into a smart home central control system for information reception, processing, and transmission.

[0052] The detection system is used to detect and obtain the ambient temperature of the current environment. and ambient humidity The system sends this information to the smart home control system; the environment type confirmation module determines the current environment type; the user identification module identifies the user, reads the user's shower history settings, and sends the shower history settings to the smart home control system. The shower history settings include the environment type, the corresponding user shower settings, and the corresponding reference temperature. and reference humidity The shower settings include a user-preset shower temperature, which is used as the base setting temperature. The optimization and adjustment module is used to adjust the current ambient temperature. and ambient humidity and the corresponding reference temperature and reference humidity , for the reference set temperature Optimize and adjust to achieve the optimal shower temperature. The information sending module is used to optimize shower temperature. The information is sent to the water heater, triggering it to heat the water flow; the verification module verifies the water flow and temperature readings of the shower circuit; the notification module issues a temperature-compliant notification when the mixed water temperature reaches the expected level. Typically, once the mixed water temperature reaches the expected level, the smart home control system sends a command to the notification module, which then issues the temperature-compliant notification; the shower system outputs hot water and mainly includes the shower piping and valves. The valves can be solenoid valves or electric switches, allowing for automatic control by the smart home control system.

[0053] The present invention also provides a storage medium storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the above-described shower adjustment control method.
