[0015] Preferably, in the control method of the steam equipment, the first duration is less than or equal to 4 seconds.
[0016] Preferably, in the control method for the steam equipment, after the step of determining the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature in each time cycle, the control method further includes:

[0023] The information acquisition unit is used to acquire the current temperature inside the steam boiler in real time during non-first-time startup of the steam boiler;
[0024] A temperature determination unit is used to determine the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature within each time period;

If the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature is greater than or equal to 1, the steam boiler is controlled to stop working for a first duration at the end of the current time cycle. After the steam boiler stops working for the first duration, the steam boiler is controlled to restart. In this way, the operating time can be increased and the user experience improved without affecting the steam efficiency.
[0037] Furthermore, since the first target high temperature will be reached multiple times in a single detection cycle, and the number of times the first target high temperature is reached, i.e. the temperature rise, is related to the water content in the steam boiler. The more water, the slower the temperature rise. If the steam boiler is stopped every time the first target high temperature is reached, the machine will frequently start and stop. By judging the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature in each time cycle, and controlling the steam boiler to stop working for a first time at the end of the current time cycle, the number of power outages can be reduced, and frequent start-ups and shutdowns can be avoided.

[0047] The realization of the objective, functional features and advantages of the present invention will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation
[0048] The technical solution of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other.
[0049] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and drawings of this invention are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.
[0050] In this invention, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not intended to limit this invention.
[0051] This embodiment provides a control method for cleaning equipment, which is applied to cleaning equipment such as sweepers, etc., and will not be listed here. This embodiment does not limit the scope of such equipment.
[0052] The implementation details of the control method for the steam equipment in this embodiment are described below. The following implementation details are provided for ease of understanding only and are not essential for implementing this solution. The steam equipment may be, but is not limited to, a steam floor scrubber.
[0053] This embodiment relates to a control method for a steam equipment, which includes a steam generator. (See also...) Figure 6 and Figure 7 The steam generator includes a steam boiler 1.
[0054] Steam equipment, especially low-power (500W-600W) steam equipment, typically stops steam boiler 1 when it reaches the set maximum temperature. If it detects a drop to the preset low temperature, it restarts the boiler. Because steam boiler 1 has low power, it cannot directly heat up from the preset low temperature; instead, it continues to cool down after starting, resulting in reduced heating and steam efficiency. For example, assuming the maximum temperature is 100℃ and the minimum temperature (not affecting steam efficiency) is 50℃, steam boiler 1 will stop when it reaches 100℃, and then restart when it detects a drop to the minimum temperature of 50℃. However, because the power of steam boiler 1 is low, it cannot raise the temperature immediately. The temperature of steam boiler 1 will continue to drop, for example, to 30°C. At this time, after the heating core 13 of steam boiler 1 heats up, steam boiler 1 will slowly heat from 30°C to 100°C. That is, steam boiler 1 cannot directly heat from the low temperature of 50°C to 100°C, but heats from 30°C to 100°C. Therefore, the steam effect will be poor when the temperature drops from 50°C to 30°C and when it rises from 30°C to 50°C. The reheating time is too long, which affects the steam effect.
[0055] The steam equipment control method provided by this invention solves the above-mentioned problems, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the control method includes:
[0056] Step S100: When the steam boiler 1 is not started for the first time, the current temperature inside the steam boiler 1 is obtained in real time.
[0057] Non-first start of steam boiler 1 refers to the intermittent start-up state of steam boiler 1 during normal operation; first start refers to the initial start-up of steam boiler 1 after receiving the start-up signal from the steam equipment, where it quickly heats up and enters the preheating state. Generally, the complete working process of steam equipment is to first enter the first start-up state after startup, and then enter the non-first start-up state during normal operation.
[0058] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7 In non-initial startup states, the current temperature of the steam boiler 1 is acquired, i.e., the temperature of the steam boiler 1 is collected using a temperature sensor 2. The steam boiler 1 includes a heating element 13 for heating water, an upper shell 11, and a lower shell 12. The upper shell 11 and lower shell 12 form an internal cavity. The heating element 13 is located on the upper shell 11 within the internal cavity, so the temperature sensor 2 can be placed on the surface of the upper shell 11. Preferably, the temperature sensor 2 is placed on the upper shell 11 and close to the heating element 13, so that the temperature sensor 2 detects the temperature of the upper shell 11 and detects the temperature of the steam boiler 1 through heat conduction. In this embodiment, the temperature sensor 2 is an NTC (negative temperature coefficient) thermistor.
[0059] Specifically, temperature sensor 2 measures the temperature of steam boiler 1 in real time and sends the measurement results to the main control unit of the steam equipment.
[0060] Step S200: Determine the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature within each time period;
[0061] It should be understood that the first target high temperature can be preset by the user or stored at the factory, and there is no restriction here. The first target high temperature refers to the upper limit of the highest temperature that the steam boiler 1 can reach during non-first starts.
[0062] It should be noted that the term "reach" in this invention can mean either "equal to" or "greater than". Determining whether the current temperature has reached the target high temperature means determining whether the current temperature is equal to or greater than the target high temperature. Each "time cycle" can be calculated from the time the last control stopped the steam boiler 1, with an interval of two hours constituting one time cycle, or it can be calculated from the time the steam equipment is started; no specific limitation is made here.
[0063] The number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature within each time period, that is, the number of times the current temperature is equal to or greater than the first target high temperature within each time period.
[0064] In addition, in the step of determining the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature within each time period, the time period is less than or equal to 20 seconds.
[0065] Step S300: If the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature more than or equal to 1 time, then control the steam boiler 1 to stop working for a first time period at the end of the current time cycle;
[0066] It should be understood that if the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature more than or equal to 1 time, then at the end of the current time cycle, the steam boiler 1 will be controlled to stop working for a first duration, and the next time cycle will begin. That is, even if the current temperature reaches the preset first target high temperature within the current time cycle, the steam boiler 1 will not be stopped immediately, but will be controlled to stop working for a first duration at the end of the cycle.
[0067] For example, if the first time period is 0s-20s, then even if the first target high temperature is reached between 0s and 20s (e.g., 10s), the steam boiler 1 will not be stopped. It will only respond to the fact that the current temperature has reached the first target high temperature within the time period at the cycle node (i.e., 20s), that is, the steam boiler 1 will be controlled to stop working for the first time.
[0068] Specifically, if the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature more than or equal to 1 time, then in the step of controlling the steam boiler 1 to stop working for a first duration at the end of the current time cycle, the first duration is less than or equal to 4 seconds. If the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature 0 times, then the steam boiler 1 continues heating until the first target high temperature is reached, then the steam boiler 1 is controlled to stop for a first duration, and the time cycle is recalculated to enter the next time cycle.
[0069] Because the first target high temperature will be reached multiple times during a single detection cycle, and the number of times this temperature is reached (i.e., the temperature rise) is related to the water content in the steam boiler 1—the more water, the slower the temperature rise—if the steam boiler 1 is stopped every time the first target high temperature is reached, the machine would frequently start and stop. Therefore, in this invention, a fixed cycle time period is set. When the current temperature exceeds the first target high temperature more than once within a time cycle, the steam boiler 1 is shut down for a first duration at the end of the cycle. This avoids frequent start-ups and shutdowns of the steam boiler 1, thus extending its service life.
[0070] Step S400: After the steam boiler 1 has stopped for a first period of time, control the steam boiler 1 to restart.
[0071] It should be understood that restarting steam boiler 1 after a first period of inactivity (usually ≤4s) can effectively prevent the temperature of steam boiler 1 from directly heating from a value lower than the target low point temperature to the target high point temperature, thus affecting the steam efficiency.
[0072] For example: Assume the highest temperature is 100℃, and the lowest temperature that does not affect the steam effect is 50℃. When steam boiler 1 reaches 100℃, it will stop. After the first stop time (≤4s), the temperature of steam boiler 1 will be 70℃. Even if the temperature cannot be raised immediately due to the low power of steam boiler 1, the temperature of steam boiler 1 will continue to drop from 70℃ to 55℃. At this time, after the heating core 13 of steam boiler 1 heats up, steam boiler 1 will slowly heat from 55℃ to 100℃. That is, steam boiler 1 heats from 55℃ to 100℃, rather than heating from a temperature lower than 50℃ (e.g., 30℃) to 100℃, so there is no impact on the steam effect.
[0073] In other words, compared to the existing technology that uses temperature to determine the restart time of the steam boiler 1 after shutdown, resulting in a reheating temperature lower than the low point temperature, the present invention determines the restart time of the steam boiler 1 by setting a first duration, which can avoid the defects of excessive heating time and reduced steam efficiency during the restart process of the low-power steam boiler 1.
[0074] For low-power steam boilers 1, especially those with a power of 500w-600w, after reaching the preset target high temperature, the steam boiler 1 stops for ≤4s and then restarts. This will not affect the steam effect. In other words, the steam boiler 1 can directly heat up from the preset low temperature or a temperature higher than the low temperature.
[0075] In addition, the control method also includes generating status information of the steam generator based on the current temperature of the steam boiler 1.
[0076] The temperature of the steam boiler 1 is detected by the temperature sensor 2, and the temperature of the steam boiler 1 corresponds to the state of water heating. That is, the overall progress of steam preparation can be displayed by the current temperature of the steam boiler 1.
[0077] This invention acquires the current temperature inside the steam boiler 1 in real time during non-first-time startups, and determines the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature within each time cycle. If the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature is greater than or equal to 1, the steam boiler 1 is controlled to stop working for a first duration at the end of the current time cycle. After the steam boiler 1 stops working for the first duration, the steam boiler 1 is controlled to restart. In this way, the operating time can be increased and the user experience improved without affecting the steam effect.
[0078] like Figure 2 As shown, in a second embodiment of the control method for the steam equipment of the present invention, the control method further includes:
[0079] Step S101: When the steam boiler 1 is started for the first time, the current temperature inside the steam boiler 1 is acquired in real time;
[0080] It should be noted that the temperature inside the steam boiler 1 when it is first started up is the temperature of the steam boiler 1 during dry burning (i.e., the preheating temperature of the steam boiler 1), which is the temperature of the steam boiler 1 before water is introduced; while the current temperature obtained when the steam boiler 1 is not started up for the first time is the temperature of the steam boiler 1 after water is introduced.
[0081] Step S102: Determine whether the current temperature has reached the second target high temperature;
[0082] It should be noted that when steam boiler 1 is started for the first time, the upper limit of the preheating temperature is greater than the upper limit of the normal operating temperature. For example, if the upper limit of the temperature of steam boiler 1 during normal operation is 130-150℃, then the upper limit of the temperature of steam boiler 1 during the initial preheating is 170℃.
[0083] Step S103: When the current temperature reaches the second target high temperature, control the steam boiler 1 to stop working for a first duration; wherein, the first target high temperature is greater than the first target high temperature.
[0084] It should be noted that when steam boiler 1 first reaches the second target high temperature, the control stops steam boiler 1 for a first time. That is, when steam boiler 1 is restarted after the first time, it is not the first time steam boiler 1 is started.
[0085] like Figure 3 As shown, in the third embodiment of the control method for the steam equipment of the present invention, after step S200, it further includes:
[0086] Step S210: If the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature is 0, continue to detect the current temperature;
[0087] It should be noted that a number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature is 0 means that the current temperature has not reached the first target high temperature within the current time period. In this case, the next time period will not be entered, but the current temperature will continue to be detected until the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature at the end of the current time period.
[0088] Step S220: When the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature, control the steam boiler 1 to stop working for a first time period and enter the next time cycle.
[0089] It should be noted that when the number of times the first target high temperature is detected is 0 at the end of the current time cycle, the detection continues until the first target high temperature is reached. Only then is the time cycle considered to have ended, and the steam boiler 1 is controlled to stop working for the first time period and enter the next time cycle.
[0090] It should be understood that, assuming a time cycle of 0-20 seconds, if the current temperature has not reached the target high temperature at the end of the cycle (20 seconds), this means that steam boiler 1 has not yet reached the temperature required to produce steam during this time cycle. Therefore, steam boiler 1 continues heating and continuously assesses the current temperature until the first target high temperature is reached. If the target high temperature is reached at 30 seconds, then steam boiler 1 is stopped, and the next time cycle begins at 30 seconds.
[0091] In this way, the steam boiler 1 in this invention can continue heating if no temperature higher than the first target high point is detected within a time cycle, and extend the current time cycle until the current temperature of the steam boiler 1 exceeds the first target temperature, at which point the steam boiler 1 stops for the first duration and enters the next cycle. Therefore, it can accommodate variations in the number of heating cycles to the first target high point temperature caused by the amount of water in the steam boiler 1, thus adapting to a wider range of application scenarios.
[0092] like Figure 4 As shown, a first embodiment of the control device for a steam equipment of the present invention includes an information acquisition unit 510, a temperature judgment unit 520, a first control unit 530, and a second control unit 540, wherein...
[0093] The information acquisition unit 510 is used to acquire the current temperature inside the steam boiler 1 in real time during non-first start-up of the steam boiler 1;
[0094] It should be understood that the current temperature of the steam boiler 1 is obtained by using a temperature sensor 2 to collect the temperature data of the steam boiler 1. The steam boiler 1 includes a heating core 13 for heating the water inside the steam boiler 1, an upper shell 11, and a lower shell 12. The upper shell 11 and the lower shell 12 enclose an internal cavity. The heating core 13 is located on the upper shell 11 within the internal cavity. Therefore, the temperature sensor 2 can be placed on the surface of the upper shell 11. Preferably, the temperature sensor 2 is placed on the upper shell 11 and close to the heating core 13. In this way, the temperature sensor 2 detects the temperature of the upper shell 11 and detects the temperature of the steam boiler 1 through heat conduction. In this embodiment, the temperature sensor 2 is an NTC (negative temperature coefficient) thermistor. Specifically, the temperature sensor 2 measures the temperature of the steam boiler 1 in real time and sends the measurement result to the steam equipment.
[0095] The temperature judgment unit 520 is used to determine the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature in each time period;
[0096] It should be understood that the first target high temperature can be preset by the user or stored at the factory, and there is no restriction here. The first target high temperature refers to the upper limit of the highest temperature that the steam boiler 1 can reach during non-first starts.
[0097] It should be noted that the term "reach" in this invention can mean either "equal to" or "greater than". Determining whether the current temperature has reached the target high temperature means determining whether the current temperature is equal to or greater than the target high temperature. Each "time cycle" can be calculated from the time the last control stopped the steam boiler 1, with an interval of two hours constituting one time cycle, or it can be calculated from the time the steam equipment is started; no specific limitation is made here.
[0098] The number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature within each time period, that is, the number of times the current temperature is equal to or greater than the first target high temperature within each time period.
[0099] In addition, in the step of determining the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature within each time period, the time period is less than or equal to 20 seconds.
[0100] The first control unit 530 is used to control the steam boiler 1 to stop working for a first duration at the end of the current time period if the number of times the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature is greater than or equal to 1.
[0101] It should be understood that if the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature more than or equal to 1 time, then at the end of the current time cycle, the steam boiler 1 will be controlled to stop working for a first duration, and the next time cycle will begin. That is, even if the current temperature reaches the preset first target high temperature within the current time cycle, the steam boiler 1 will not be stopped immediately, but will be controlled to stop working for a first duration at the end of the cycle.
[0102] For example, if the first time period is 0s-20s, then even if the first target high temperature is reached between 0s and 20s (e.g., 10s), the steam boiler 1 will not be stopped. It will only respond to the fact that the current temperature has reached the first target high temperature within the time period at the cycle node (i.e., 20s), that is, the steam boiler 1 will be controlled to stop working for the first time.
[0103] Specifically, if the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature more than or equal to 1 time, then in the step of controlling the steam boiler 1 to stop working for a first duration at the end of the current time cycle, the first duration is less than or equal to 4 seconds. If the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature 0 times, then the steam boiler 1 continues heating until the first target high temperature is reached, then the steam boiler 1 is controlled to stop for a first duration, and the time cycle is recalculated to enter the next time cycle.
[0104] It should be noted that, since the first target high temperature will be reached multiple times in a single detection cycle, the number of times the first target high temperature is reached, i.e. the temperature rise, is related to the water content in the steam boiler 1. The more water, the slower the temperature rise. If the steam boiler 1 is stopped every time the first target high temperature is reached, it will cause the machine to frequently start and stop.
[0105] The second control unit 540 is used to restart the steam boiler 1 after the steam boiler 1 has stopped for a first period of time (usually ≤4s). This can effectively prevent the temperature of the steam boiler 1 from directly heating from a value lower than the target low point temperature to the target high point temperature, thus affecting the steam effect.
[0106] For example: Assume the highest temperature is 100℃ and the lowest temperature that does not affect the steam effect is 50℃. When the steam boiler 1 reaches 100℃, it will stop. After the first stop time (≤4s), the temperature of the steam boiler 1 will be 70℃. Even if the steam boiler 1 has low power and cannot immediately raise the temperature, the temperature of the steam boiler 1 will continue to decrease, from 70℃ to 55℃. At this time, after the heating core 13 of the steam boiler 1 heats up, the steam boiler 1 will slowly heat from 55℃ to 100℃. That is, the steam boiler 1 heats from 55℃ to 100℃, rather than heating from below 50℃ (e.g., 30℃) to 100℃, so there is no impact on the steam effect.
[0107] For low-power steam boilers 1, especially those with a power of 500w-600w, after reaching the preset target high temperature, the steam boiler 1 stops for ≤4s and then restarts. This will not affect the steam effect. In other words, the steam boiler 1 can directly heat up from the preset low temperature or a temperature higher than the low temperature.
[0108] In addition, the temperature detection unit is also used for:
[0109] The current temperature is continuously monitored until the number of times the first target high temperature is reached is 0.
[0110] When the current temperature reaches the first target high temperature, control the steam boiler 1 to stop working for a first time period and enter the next time cycle.
[0111] Furthermore, the steam equipment involved in this invention, such as... Figure 5 As shown, it includes at least one processor 601; and a memory 602 communicatively connected to at least one processor 601; wherein the memory 602 stores instructions that can be executed by at least one processor 601, and the instructions are executed by at least one processor 601 to enable at least one processor 601 to perform the control method of the steam equipment described in the above embodiments.
[0112] The memory 602 and processor 601 are connected via a bus, which may include any number of interconnecting buses and bridges. The bus connects various circuits of one or more processors 601 and memory 602 together. The bus can also connect various other circuits, such as peripheral devices, voltage regulators, and power management circuits, which are well known in the art and therefore will not be described further herein. A bus interface provides an interface between the bus and the transceiver. The transceiver can be a single element or multiple elements, such as multiple receivers and transmitters, providing a unit for communicating with various other devices over a transmission medium.
