[0028] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the scheme of the present invention, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0030] Figure 1 This is a flow chart of a control method for a laundry appliance provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The method can be executed by a control device of the laundry appliance. The control device of the laundry appliance can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software. The control device of the laundry appliance can be configured in the laundry appliance. The laundry appliance can be, for example, a washing machine. Figure 1 As shown, the method may specifically include the following steps:

[0031] S101, obtaining the total processing time of the laundry and basic characteristic information of the laundry.

[0032] Among them, the total clothing processing time can be understood as the clothing processing time set by the user; the basic feature information can be understood as the clothing features of the laundry that can be directly obtained.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, the user can input the total clothing processing time on a terminal device bound to the laundry device, or the user can directly input the total clothing processing time on the display screen of the laundry device; after the user inputs the total clothing processing time, the total clothing processing time and basic characteristic information of the laundry to be washed are obtained.

[0034] S102: Determine the time allocation ratio of each processing stage based on the basic characteristic information of the laundry.

[0035] Among them, each processing stage may include a washing stage, a rinsing stage and a dehydration stage.

[0036] In an optional implementation, derived characteristic information of the laundry can be determined based on the basic characteristic information, and then the time allocation ratio of each processing stage can be determined according to the derived characteristic information. The derived characteristic information can be understood as the laundry characteristic information of the laundry determined based on the basic characteristic information.

[0037] For example, basic feature information may include clothing material and stain type of the laundry to be washed, and derived feature information may include moisture content and stain removal difficulty of the laundry to be washed. The moisture content of the laundry to be washed may be determined based on the clothing material of the laundry to be washed, and the stain removal difficulty of the laundry to be washed may be determined based on the stain type of the laundry to be washed. Then, the moisture content and stain removal difficulty of the laundry to be washed are determined as the derived feature information of the laundry to be washed, and the time distribution ratio of the washing stage, the rinsing stage and the dehydration stage is determined according to the moisture content and stain removal difficulty of the laundry.

[0038] S103, determining the processing time of each processing stage according to the total clothing processing time and the time distribution ratio.

[0039] In an optional implementation, the total clothing processing time may be calculated in turn according to the proportion value in the time distribution ratio to calculate the processing time of each processing stage.

[0040] For example, the total clothing processing time is 60 minutes, and the time allocation ratio is 1:2:3, and the ratio values ​​in the time allocation ratio are the time ratios corresponding to the washing stage, the rinsing stage and the dehydration stage respectively; taking the washing stage as an example, according to the time allocation ratio, it can be seen that the total clothing processing time is divided into six equal parts, among which the processing time of the washing stage is one sixth of the total clothing processing time, then the processing time of the washing stage is 10 minutes, and accordingly, the processing time of the rinsing stage is 20 minutes, and the processing time of the dehydration stage is 30 minutes.

[0041] S104, determining control parameters of each processing stage according to the basic feature information.

[0042] The basic characteristic information may also include the weight of the laundry to be washed; the control parameters may be understood as the washing parameters of the laundry device in each processing stage.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the control parameter information can be queried according to the material and / or weight of the clothes to obtain the control parameters of each processing stage, and the control parameter information includes the control parameters of each processing stage corresponding to each material and / or weight of the clothes. The control parameter includes at least one of the washing water temperature, the rinsing water volume, the number of rinsing cycles and the spin speed.

[0044] For example, the basic characteristic information is the weight of the clothes. According to the weight of the clothes, the control parameter information can be queried to obtain the washing water temperature in the washing stage, the rinsing water intake and the number of rinses in the rinsing stage, and the dehydration speed in the dehydration stage.

[0045] S105, processing the laundry according to the control parameters and processing time of each processing stage.

[0046] In this embodiment, when the user is in a hurry to go out, the user can set the total clothing processing time and the basic characteristic information of the laundry according to his or her own time requirements. The user does not need to passively accept the default total clothing processing time, but can independently select the total clothing processing time. The user is given the option of setting the total clothing processing time, and then the time allocation ratio of each processing stage is determined based on the basic characteristic information. According to the total clothing processing time and the time allocation ratio, the processing time of each processing stage within the total clothing processing time is automatically determined, and the control parameters of each processing stage are determined according to the basic characteristic information, so as to achieve the total clothing processing time set by the user. The control parameters and processing time of the processing stage complete the processing of the laundry and meet the time needs of the user. Since it is necessary to determine the control parameters (for example, washing water temperature, number of rinsing times) suitable for each processing stage of the laundry based on the basic feature information, and then process the laundry based on the control parameters and processing time of each processing stage, it is possible to maximize the laundry processing effect of the laundry on the basis of meeting the time needs of the user, increase the intelligence and convenience of the laundry device, solve the problem that the user needs to wait for the laundry device to complete the processing of the laundry, resulting in the failure to meet the time needs of the user, and bring the user a better experience of using the laundry device.

[0047] Figure 2 Another flow chart of the control method of the laundry device provided by the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the method may include the following steps:

[0048] S201, obtaining the total processing time of the laundry and basic characteristic information of the laundry.

[0049] S202, determining a preset total laundry processing time for the laundry according to the weight of the laundry.

[0050] The preset total laundry processing time may be understood as a preset total laundry processing time corresponding to the laundry weight.

[0051] S203, determining whether the total laundry processing time exceeds the preset total laundry processing time. When the total laundry processing time exceeds the preset total laundry processing time, execute S204; when the total laundry processing time does not exceed the preset total laundry processing time, execute S206.

[0052] The preset total laundry processing time may be understood as the preset processing time of each processing stage corresponding to the preset total laundry processing time.

[0053] In an optional embodiment, in order to reduce the operating time of the laundry device and reduce power consumption to a certain extent when the user requires the laundry device to complete the clothing processing process of the laundry in a short time, if the preset total clothing processing time is less than the total clothing processing time, the shorter preset total clothing processing time can be determined as the total clothing processing time, thereby reducing the user's waiting time, saving time costs for the user, solving the problem that the user needs to wait for the laundry device to complete the processing of the laundry, resulting in the inability to meet the user's time requirements, reducing power consumption, and saving energy and reducing emissions.

[0054] S204, generating time prompt information so that the user can determine whether to change the total clothing processing time according to the time prompt information. If it is determined to change the total clothing processing time, execute S205; if it is determined not to change the total clothing processing time, execute S206.

[0055] S205: Determine the preset processing time of each processing stage corresponding to the preset total clothing processing time as the processing time of each processing stage.

[0056] In some embodiments, before the preset processing time of each processing stage corresponding to the preset total clothing processing time is determined as the processing time of each processing stage, it also includes: generating time prompt information so that the user determines whether to change the total clothing processing time according to the time prompt information; when determining to change the total clothing processing time, triggering the execution of the step of determining the preset processing time of each processing stage corresponding to the preset total clothing processing time as the processing time of each processing stage. In this way, the user can have more choices in the total clothing processing time, mainly based on user needs, solves the problem that the user needs to wait for the laundry device to complete the processing of the laundry, resulting in the inability to meet the user's time needs, increases the intelligence of the laundry device, and brings the user a better laundry device usage experience.

[0057] After executing S205, execute S209.

[0058] S206: Determine derived characteristic information of the laundry based on the basic characteristic information.

[0059] S207: Determine the duration allocation ratio of each processing stage according to the derived feature information.

[0060] In an optional implementation, the duration information is queried to obtain the duration allocation ratio of each treatment stage according to the moisture content and the decontamination difficulty. The duration information includes the duration allocation ratio of each treatment stage corresponding to each moisture content and decontamination difficulty, and the duration information can be in a table form.

[0061] For example, Table 1 is a duration information table provided in this embodiment.

[0062] Table 1 Duration information table

[0063] Difficulty of decontamination Moisture content Washing stage: Rinse stage: Dehydration stage easy Low 70:20:10 easy middle 60:25:15 easy high 50:30:20 middle Low 80:15:5 middle middle 70:20:10 middle high 60:25:15 Disaster Low 90:5:5 Disaster middle 80:15:5 Disaster high 70:20:10

[0064] It can be seen from Table 1 that when the decontamination difficulty is easy and the moisture content is low, the time distribution ratio of each treatment stage can be obtained by querying Table 1 based on the moisture content and the decontamination difficulty as 70:20:10.

[0065] S208, determining the processing time of each processing stage according to the total clothing processing time and the time allocation ratio.

[0066] For example, assuming that the total clothing processing time is 50 minutes, the processing time of the washing stage is 35 minutes, the processing time of the rinsing stage is 10 minutes, and the processing time of the dehydration stage is 5 minutes according to the time distribution ratio of each processing stage obtained in S205.

[0067] Optionally, after determining the processing time of each processing stage according to the total processing time of the clothes and the time allocation ratio, the time confirmation information can also be generated according to the total processing time of the clothes and the processing time of each processing stage, so that the user can confirm whether to modify the processing time of each processing stage according to the time confirmation information; if it is determined to modify the processing time of each processing stage, a processing time modification interface is generated, and the processing time modification interface is displayed to the user. The user can modify the processing time of each processing stage in the time modification interface to obtain the target processing time of each processing stage, and process the laundry according to the control parameters and target processing time of each processing stage. In this way, the user's needs can be given priority, and the user can adjust the processing time of each processing stage according to the needs, giving the user greater choice in the processing time of each processing stage, increasing the intelligence of the laundry equipment, solving the problem that the user needs to wait for the laundry equipment to complete the processing of the laundry, resulting in the inability to meet the user's time needs, and bringing the user a better experience of using the laundry equipment. Among them, the target processing time of each processing stage can be understood as the processing time of each processing stage modified by the user.

[0068] For example, assuming that the total processing time of the laundry is 50 minutes, and the user believes that it is difficult to remove dirt from the laundry, and needs to increase the processing time of the washing stage to better remove dirt from the laundry, time confirmation information can be generated according to the total processing time of the laundry and the processing time of each processing stage obtained in the above S208, so that the user can confirm whether to modify the processing time of each processing stage according to the time confirmation information; if it is determined to modify the processing time of each processing stage, a processing time modification interface is generated and displayed to the user. In the time modification interface, the user can modify the processing time of the washing stage from 35 minutes to 40 minutes, and modify the processing time of the rinsing stage from 10 minutes to 5 minutes, and obtain the target processing time of each processing stage (the processing time of the washing stage is 40 minutes, the processing time of the rinsing stage is 5 minutes, and the processing time of the dehydration stage is 5 minutes), and process the laundry according to the control parameters of each processing stage and the target processing time, so as to improve the laundry processing effect of the laundry machine.

[0069] S209, querying control parameter information to obtain control parameters of each processing stage according to the material and / or weight of the clothes.

[0070] The control parameter information may be in a table format.

[0071] For example, Table 2 is a control parameter information table provided by this embodiment. As can be seen from Table 2, when the material of the clothing is pure cotton and the weight of the clothing is 5, the washing water temperature can be queried in Table 2 to obtain T1, W1, 2, and S1, based on the material and weight of the clothing.

[0072] Table 2 Control parameter information table

[0073] Clothing material Clothing weight Washing water temperature Rinse water intake Rinse times Dehydration speed Cotton 5 T1 W1 2 S1 Cotton and Linen 6 T2 W2 1 S2

[0074] S210, processing the laundry according to the control parameters and processing time of each processing stage.

[0075] In this embodiment, when the user is in a hurry to go out, the user can set the total clothing processing time and the basic characteristic information of the laundry according to his or her own time requirements. The user does not need to passively accept the default total clothing processing time, but can independently select the total clothing processing time. The user is given the option of setting the total clothing processing time, and then the time allocation ratio of each processing stage is determined based on the basic characteristic information. According to the total clothing processing time and the time allocation ratio, the processing time of each processing stage within the total clothing processing time is automatically determined, and the control parameters of each processing stage are determined according to the basic characteristic information, so as to achieve the total clothing processing time set by the user. The control parameters and processing time of the processing stage complete the processing of the laundry and meet the time needs of the user. Since it is necessary to determine the control parameters (for example, washing water temperature, number of rinsing times) suitable for each processing stage of the laundry based on the basic feature information, and then process the laundry based on the control parameters and processing time of each processing stage, it is possible to maximize the laundry processing effect of the laundry on the basis of meeting the time needs of the user, increase the intelligence and convenience of the laundry device, solve the problem that the user needs to wait for the laundry device to complete the processing of the laundry, resulting in the failure to meet the time needs of the user, and bring the user a better experience of using the laundry device.
