Filter and washing machine linkage control method

By installing a filter with linkage control on the outside of the washing machine, and using sensors to detect data and control the smart socket to cut off power, the problems of limited applicability and inability to automatically stop the machine in existing technologies are solved. This achieves linkage control between the filter and the washing machine, improving the filtration effect and protection capabilities of the equipment.

AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The filters in existing washing machines are usually fixed to the machine, which limits their applicability and prevents the machine from automatically stopping when the filter is full of impurities, leading to sewer blockage.

Method used

A method for linking a filter and a washing machine is designed. By installing a filter on the outside of the washing machine and equipping it with a microprocessor, sensor module, data storage and analysis module, and alarm module, the filter uses sensors to detect data inside the filter. If the data exceeds a preset value, the smart socket is powered off, and the washing machine's drainage mechanism is shut off, thus achieving linkage control between the filter and the washing machine.

Benefits of technology

The filter has been made more versatile and can be used with various models of washing machines. It also automatically stops the machine when the filter is full to protect the equipment and prevent sewer blockage.
