[0055] Figure 3 This is a structural block diagram of the electronic device provided in the embodiments of this application. Detailed Implementation

[0056] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0057] This application provides a method for dispensing chemicals in a touchscreen-enabled multi-channel commercial washing machine. This method can be executed by an electronic device, which can be a server or a terminal device. The server can be a standalone physical server, a server cluster or distributed system composed of multiple physical servers, or a cloud server providing cloud computing services. The terminal device can be a smartphone, tablet computer, desktop computer, etc., but is not limited to these.

[0058] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for dispensing chemicals in a touchscreen multi-channel commercial washing machine, as provided in an embodiment of this application.

[0059] like Figure 1 As shown, the main process of this method is described below (steps S101 to S105):

[0060] Step S101: Obtain the weight and type of the items to be cleaned.

[0061] In this embodiment, a multi-channel commercial washing machine uses one program to control multiple washing machines. Typically, a multi-channel system controls six washing machines. During operation, various occupancy scenarios exist: some channels may be occupied, others may be idle, or all channels may be simultaneously occupied. Regardless of the scenario, each channel (i.e., each washing machine) requires chemical dispensing. This dispensing is carefully calculated based on the item information, including weight and type. Item weight is measured in kilograms, and item types include tablecloths, sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, etc. Items of the same type must be placed in one washing machine for washing.

[0062] Step S102: Generate the expected usage information of the medicine based on the item weight and item type.

[0063] For step S102, the rules for using the medicine liquid are obtained, and the types of medicine liquid that can be used are determined based on the rules for using the medicine liquid and the types of items; the estimated amount of medicine liquid to be used is calculated based on the weight of the items; the dispensing speed is calculated based on the estimated amount of medicine liquid to be used and the types of medicine liquid that can be used; and the estimated usage information of the medicine liquid is generated based on the types of medicine liquid that can be used, the amount of medicine liquid to be used, and the dispensing speed.

[0064] Furthermore, the process involves acquiring images of the stains on the items to be cleaned, determining the stain level based on the stain images and preset stain determination criteria, acquiring historical stain levels with the same stain level, historical cleaning weights corresponding to the historical stain levels, and historical chemical dosages, determining whether the historical cleaning weight matches the item weight, using the historical chemical dosage as the expected chemical dosage if the historical cleaning weight matches the item weight, and acquiring the unit of measurement for the items to be cleaned if the historical cleaning weight does not match the item weight, calculating the chemical dosage for a single unit of measurement based on the historical cleaning weight and historical chemical dosage, and calculating the expected chemical dosage based on the chemical dosage and item weight.

[0065] In this embodiment, the first step is to determine the types of cleaning solutions that can be used on the items to be cleaned, based on the cleaning solution usage rules. There are a total of 13 types of cleaning solutions available. The usage rules include the types of items that can be cleaned with each solution and its corresponding stain cleaning function. The stain cleaning function specifies the types of items that can be cleaned and the level of stain. After determining the type of item to be cleaned, a query is performed in the cleaning solution usage rules. Solutions that can clean the same types of items as the items to be cleaned are considered available. Different types of cleaning solutions have different concentrations; therefore, the application rate needs to be calculated based on the concentration and the expected dosage. Different concentrations dissolve in water at different rates during cleaning, and there are also corresponding requirements for the overall dispensing time. Therefore, all the medicine needs to be dispensed within the specified dispensing time based on the dissolution rate. First, calculate the initial dispensing speed based on the dissolution time and the expected amount of medicine. Then, adjust the initial dispensing speed accordingly based on the dissolution rate. When the initial dispensing speed is slower than the dissolution rate, in order to complete the dispensing operation as quickly as possible, the initial dispensing speed needs to be adjusted based on the dissolution rate to generate a second dispensing speed. The second dispensing speed is used for dispensing. The second dispensing speed is higher than the first dispensing speed. When the initial dispensing speed is faster than the dissolution rate, in order to complete the dispensing operation within the specified dispensing time, the first dispensing speed is used directly.

[0066] Before calculating the dosage, the expected amount of cleaning solution needs to be determined. To improve the calculation speed, historical data is used. First, images of the stain locations on the item to be cleaned are acquired to generate stain images. These images are then compared with preset stain assessment criteria to determine the stain level. The preset stain assessment criteria include stain area level and stain contamination level. The stain area is determined from the stain image, and the stain area level is determined based on this. A larger stain area corresponds to a higher level. The stain image also reveals the stain penetration and degree of contamination. The stain contamination level is determined based on this penetration and degree of contamination, and higher penetration and degree of contamination correspond to a higher level. Both stain area level and stain contamination level determinations use intervals and corresponding levels. After obtaining the stain area level and contamination level, their sum is calculated and used as the stain level of the item to be cleaned.

[0067] After obtaining the stain grade, search for historical stain grades with the same stain grade in the historical data, and obtain the historical cleaning weight and historical chemical solution usage corresponding to the historical stain grade. When the historical cleaning weight matches the item weight, use the historical chemical solution usage corresponding to the historical stain grade as the expected chemical solution usage. When the historical cleaning weight does not match the item weight, calculate the chemical solution usage per unit of measurement based on the historical cleaning weight and historical chemical solution usage. As mentioned above, the unit of measurement is kilograms, and a single unit of measurement is one kilogram. Therefore, the chemical solution usage per unit of measurement is the chemical solution usage for one kilogram of the item to be cleaned. After obtaining the chemical solution usage for one kilogram of the item to be cleaned, the expected chemical solution usage can be calculated based on the item weight.

[0068] Step S103: Obtain the type of stain on the item to be cleaned.

[0069] In this embodiment, the type of stain on the item to be cleaned needs to be input by the user along with the type of item. As mentioned above, the types of items that commercial washing machines can clean mainly include tablecloths, sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, etc., and the corresponding stain types are also mainly the stains that can be produced by the type of item, including oil stains, dust, and blood stains.

[0070] Step S104: Generate item cleaning information based on stain type and expected usage information of cleaning solution.

[0071] For step S104, the target cleaning solution is determined based on the stain type and the available types of cleaning solution; the application time of the target cleaning solution is determined based on the application speed and the weight of the item; and item cleaning information is generated based on the target cleaning solution and the application time.

[0072] Furthermore, the estimated water consumption is determined based on the weight of the item; the water injection speed and estimated water consumption are obtained to calculate the water injection time; the current time is obtained, and the drug administration time for the target drug solution is determined based on the water injection time and the current time.

[0073] In this embodiment, after obtaining the available types of cleaning solutions, further screening is required based on the stain type. A solution suitable for cleaning the current stain type is selected from the available solutions as the target solution. The calculated application rate is the application rate for all available solutions. After determining the target solution, the application rate corresponding to the target solution is used. To prevent the solution from accumulating in one place, it is generally applied when the water filling is almost complete. Ideally, the application should be completed simultaneously with the water filling, allowing the water mixed with the solution to be used directly for cleaning after the water filling is finished.

[0074] Based on routine cleaning methods, the water consumption per kilogram of items is determined. The total estimated water consumption for this cleaning is then calculated based on the item's weight. The water filling time is calculated based on the commercial washing machine's water filling speed and the estimated water consumption. The chemical application time is then calculated based on the current time, water filling time, and chemical application time. For example, if the water filling time is 60 seconds, the current time is 4:35 PM, and the chemical application time is 5 seconds, the water filling will be completed at 4:36 PM. Therefore, the chemical application should begin five seconds before 4:36 PM, meaning the application time is 4:35:46 PM.

[0075] Step S105: Obtain cleaning requirements, and generate a solution distribution plan based on cleaning requirements, expected usage information of cleaning solution, and item cleaning information.

[0076] For step S105, the cleaning requirements include cleaning completion time and cleaning urgency level; the order of chemical solution distribution is determined based on the cleaning completion time and cleaning urgency level; and a chemical solution distribution plan is generated based on the chemical solution distribution order, expected chemical solution usage information, and item cleaning information.

[0077] In this embodiment, both the cleaning completion time and the cleaning level are input by the user via touchscreen when placing the items to be cleaned into the commercial washing machine. After user input, the items to be cleaned and their corresponding channels are marked using the cleaning completion time and the cleaning urgency level. After calculating the chemical dispensing time and the target chemical solution, it is checked whether there are two or more channels with the same dispensing time and target chemical solution. If there are two or more channels with the same dispensing time and target chemical solution, the start time of the corresponding channel, i.e., the corresponding commercial washing machine, is adjusted according to the cleaning completion time and the cleaning level. First, the cleaning completion times are compared. If the cleaning completion times are the same, the channel with the higher cleaning level is prioritized. If the cleaning completion times are different, the channel with the earlier cleaning completion time is prioritized. After the adjustment is completed, a notification is displayed on the touchscreen.

[0078] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate users to know the overall progress in a timely manner, it is necessary to display the execution progress and the medicine distribution plan on the touch screen so that users can know the current situation by touching the screen. Therefore, it is necessary to obtain the execution time of the medicine distribution plan, determine the execution progress of the medicine distribution plan based on the execution time, and display the medicine distribution plan and the execution progress on the touch screen.
