[0045] In some cases, the current way of removing odors from refrigerators is to detect odors in the refrigerated area through sensors and automatically activate the deodorization function when an odor is detected, or to monitor the odor in the refrigerator 24 hours a day through gas sensing technology. However, this does not take into account the user experience, that is, the user cannot smell the food when opening the door to take it out, and cannot judge the status of the food by smell and experience.
[0046] Based on the above situation, the embodiments of the present application propose a refrigerator control method, a controller, a refrigerator and a storage medium, aiming to solve the odor pollution problem during the ripening process while improving the user experience.
[0047] The following is a further description of various embodiments of the refrigerator of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0048] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a refrigerator provided by an embodiment of the present application; Figure 2 It is a structural schematic diagram of a refrigerator provided in another embodiment of the present application.
[0049] In one embodiment, the refrigerator is provided with an odor treatment module 120 and a fan 110. The odor treatment module includes an adsorption layer 122, which is used to adsorb the odor emitted by the food. The odor treatment module 120 also includes a catalytic layer 121, which is located on one side of the adsorption layer 122.
[0050] It should be noted that the catalytic layer 121 loads catalysts, such as two or more of Pt, Ti, Mn, Cu, Fe, Au, Ag, etc., on a substrate such as a ceramic honeycomb, and plasma, photocatalysis and other technologies can be superimposed; the adsorption layer 122 loads adsorption materials, such as molecular sieves, activated carbon, etc. on a substrate such as a ceramic honeycomb; the adsorption layer is designed with heating wires or silk-screened heating slurry on the front or one side or both sides.
[0051] It should be noted that the catalytic layer 121 and the adsorption layer 122 can be two pieces arranged front and back, or the catalytic layer 121 and the adsorption layer 122 can be distributed in front and back layers of the same carrier.
[0052] In one embodiment, the odor treatment module 120 is installed in the ripening space, and an odor sensor is also provided in the ripening space. The odor concentration value of the ripening space can be detected by the odor sensor, so as to control the operation state of the fan according to the odor concentration value.
[0053] like Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 It is a structural schematic diagram of a refrigerator provided in another embodiment of the present application.
[0054] In one embodiment, the odor treatment module 120 is further provided with a heating module 123, which may be a heating wire, a heating rod, or other structural forms; the heating module 123 may be provided on the surface of the adsorption layer 122, or may be embedded inside the adsorption layer.
[0055] like Figure 4 and Figure 2 As shown, Figure 4 is a structural schematic diagram of a refrigerator provided by another embodiment of the present application; Figure 5 It is a structural schematic diagram of a refrigerator provided in another embodiment of the present application.
[0056] In one embodiment, the odor treatment module 120 is installed in the maturation space 130, and an odor sensor is also provided in the maturation space 130. The odor sensor can detect the odor concentration value of the maturation space, so as to control the operation state of the fan according to the odor concentration value.
[0057] In one embodiment, the odor treatment module 120 is installed in the ripening space 130, and the fan 110 is installed inside the air duct 140, and the air after adsorption catalysis flows into the air duct.
[0058] In one embodiment, the odor treatment module 120 is installed in the maturation space 130, and the fan 110 is installed inside the maturation space 130, and the air after adsorption catalysis flows to the maturation space in turn.
[0059] Based on the hardware structure of the refrigerator in each of the above embodiments, various embodiments of the refrigerator control method of the present application are respectively proposed below.
[0060] like Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 It is a flowchart of a refrigerator control method provided by an embodiment of the present application; the refrigerator control method may include but is not limited to step S610 and step S620.
[0061] Step S610, obtaining the maturity of the food;
[0062] Step S620: When the maturity of the food indicates that the food is in a mature and edible stage, upon receiving an instruction to open the ripening space, the fan is controlled to rotate in a first direction to allow air to flow through the adsorption layer and release the odor adsorbed by the adsorption layer.
[0063] In one embodiment, when a spectral imaging module is provided in the compartment of the refrigerator, the image information and spectral information of the food are obtained through the spectral imaging module; since the image information and spectral information of different types of food are different, the type of food is determined according to the image information, and the maturity of the food is determined according to the spectral information, thereby improving the accuracy of judging the type of food and the maturity of the food. When the maturity of the food indicates that the food is in a mature and edible stage, upon receiving an opening instruction for the ripening space, the controller of the refrigerator controls the fan to rotate in a first direction so that air flows through the adsorption layer and releases the odor adsorbed by the adsorption layer. This solves the problem of odor pollution during the ripening process while improving the user experience.
[0064] It should be noted that during the ripening process, the respiration rate, cell membrane permeability, cell wall composition, starch content, and hydrolytic enzyme activity such as amylase and polygalacturonase will change, and these changes will eventually manifest as the hardness of fruits and vegetables. The hardness of a fruit refers to the ability of the flesh to resist pressure. The stronger the pressure resistance, the greater the hardness of the fruit. Generally, as the maturity of the fruit increases, the hardness will gradually decrease. Therefore, the maturity of fruits and vegetables can be judged based on the hardness of the fruit.
[0065] It should be noted that the method for detecting the maturity of food ingredients can be to detect the maturity of food ingredients through a spectral imaging sensor, or to detect the maturity of food ingredients based on smell, weight, or shape of food ingredients. The specific method of detecting the maturity of food ingredients is not specifically limited in the embodiments of the present application.
[0066] In one embodiment, if the ripening space is a storage drawer, the opening instruction corresponds to a drawer opening instruction.
[0067] In one embodiment, if the ripening space is a refrigerator, the opening instruction corresponds to an opening instruction of a refrigerator door, specifically, an opening instruction of a refrigerator door corresponding to the refrigerator.
[0068] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, a refrigerator door switch sensor corresponding to the cold storage compartment can be added at the position of the refrigerator door. When the maturity of the food indicates that the food is in a mature and edible stage, when the refrigerator door switch sensor detects that the refrigerator door is in an open state, the control system of the refrigerator generates an opening command, and the automatic detection program receives the opening command.
[0069] In addition, it can be understood that the type of the refrigerator door switch sensor can be a mechanical switch, a reed switch, a capacitive sensor, an inductive sensor, an ultrasonic sensor, or other types of refrigerator door switch sensors. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific type of the refrigerator door switch sensor.
[0070] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, a control panel can be installed at the position of the refrigerator door, and the user can choose to send an open command through the control panel. When the user chooses to send an open command, the controller of the refrigerator receives the open command.
[0071] In one embodiment, the odor processing module is further provided with a heating module, and the method further comprises:
[0072] After receiving the opening instruction of the ripening space, the heating module is started to heat the adsorption layer to release the odor adsorbed by the adsorption layer.
[0073] It should be noted that the heating module can be a heating wire, a heating rod, or other structural forms; the heating module can be arranged on the surface of the adsorption layer, or embedded in the adsorption layer. The embodiment of the present application does not make specific restrictions on the structural form and the location of the heating module.
[0074] Specifically, when the user opens the door of the ripening space, the system will start the heating module, which increases the temperature of the adsorption layer, thereby accelerating the release of odor molecules. Through heating, the odor molecules adsorbed on the internal materials of the refrigerator are released into the air. These odor molecules can then be processed by the refrigerator's deodorization system to keep the interior of the refrigerator clean and fresh.
[0075] In one embodiment, the odor processing module also includes a catalytic layer, which is located on one side of the adsorption layer; after obtaining the maturity of the food, when the maturity of the food indicates that the food is overripe and inedible, the heating module is started to heat the adsorption layer, and the fan is controlled to rotate in a second direction so that the air flows through the adsorption layer and the catalytic layer in sequence, wherein the second direction is opposite to the first direction.
[0076] It should be noted that when the maturity of the food indicates that the food is overripe and inedible, starting the heating module to heat the adsorption layer and controlling the fan to rotate forward can completely catalyze and remove the odor of the adsorption layer. When the user opens the door of the ripening space in the inedible stage, the odor will no longer be released.
[0077] In one embodiment, when the maturity of the food indicates that the food is in an overripe and inedible stage, upon receiving an instruction to open the ripening space, the fan is controlled to rotate in a first direction or the fan is controlled to stop rotating.
[0078] In one embodiment, when the maturity of the food reaches the overripe and inedible stage, the control logic will trigger the corresponding control instructions. According to the instructions of the control logic, the fan is controlled to rotate in a first direction or stop rotating to adjust the environment of the ripening space to prevent the food from further maturing. A user interface can also be provided to allow the user to set a threshold for the maturity of the food and view real-time data on the maturity of the food.
[0079] like Figure 7 As shown, Figure 7 It is a flowchart of a refrigerator control method provided by another embodiment of the present application; the refrigerator control method may include but is not limited to step S710 and step S720.
[0080] Step S710, determining that the ripening space is in a closed state, and detecting the odor concentration value of the ripening space through an odor sensor;
[0081] Step S720: Control the operating state of the fan according to the odor concentration value.
[0082] It should be noted that an odor sensor is installed inside the ripening space, and when the door or other entrances and exits of the ripening space are in a completely closed state, the odor sensor starts working. This state can be determined by a door magnetic switch, infrared detector or other position sensing device to ensure that the odor detection result is not subject to external interference. The odor sensor is used to detect the odor concentration value in the ripening space in real time and send the value to the control system. The control system controls the operating state of the fan according to the odor concentration value, including the rotation of the fan and the stop of the fan. Through the linkage control of the odor sensor and the fan, the odor concentration of the ripening environment can be effectively adjusted to avoid the odor being too strong or too weak to affect the ripening effect, and at the same time avoid frequent fan operation leading to excessive energy consumption.
[0083] In one embodiment, controlling the operating state of the fan according to the odor concentration value includes at least one of the following:
[0084] When the odor concentration value is greater than or equal to a preset threshold concentration, the fan is controlled to rotate in a second direction so that the air flows through the adsorption layer and the catalytic layer in sequence;
[0085] When the odor concentration value is lower than the preset threshold concentration, the fan is controlled to stop rotating.
[0086] In one embodiment, when it is detected that the odor concentration value collected by the odor sensor is greater than or equal to a preset threshold concentration, the fan is controlled to rotate in a predetermined second direction. The rotation direction of the fan ensures that the air flows through the adsorption layer and the catalytic layer in sequence, thereby effectively removing the odor components in the air and ensuring that the environmental odor is maintained within a reasonable range. When the odor concentration value is lower than the preset threshold concentration, the fan stops rotating, and no further air processing is performed at this time, saving energy consumption. The preset threshold can be adjusted according to different application scenarios to meet different odor control requirements and ensure the efficient operation of the air treatment system.
[0087] In one embodiment, when the odor concentration value approaches or just reaches the preset threshold concentration, the rotation speed of the fan will gradually increase to accelerate the air flow and allow the odor components to quickly enter the treatment layer; when the odor concentration is much higher than the threshold, the fan can enter the high-speed mode to further enhance the air treatment efficiency. At the same time, the temperature sensor or humidity sensor can be combined to comprehensively judge the impact of environmental factors on odor diffusion, and then adjust the operating state of the fan. For example, when the odor diffusion is accelerated in a high temperature environment, the system can automatically increase the speed of the fan to remove the odor molecules in the air more quickly.
[0088] In one embodiment, after obtaining the maturity of the food, if the maturity of the food indicates that the food is in a mature and edible stage, a first reminder message is pushed to the user, wherein the first reminder message is used to remind the user to eat the food;
[0089] When the maturity of the food indicates that the food is in an overripe and inedible stage, a second reminder message is pushed to the user, wherein the second reminder message is used to remind the user to stop eating the food.
[0090] Specifically, when it is detected that the maturity of the food material indicates that the food material is in a mature and suitable stage for consumption, the system automatically generates and pushes a first reminder message to the user's device. The first reminder message is used to notify the user that the current food material has reached the best edible state, thereby reminding the user to consume it in time to avoid missing the best tasting time. The reminder message can be delivered in a variety of ways, including but not limited to mobile application push notifications, SMS reminders, voice assistant broadcasts, or smart device displays. When it is detected that the maturity of the food material indicates that the food material is in an overripe and inedible stage, the system will generate and push a second reminder message, prompting the user that the food material may have exceeded the edible stage, and it is recommended to stop eating or take necessary treatment measures (such as discarding or using it for other non-edible purposes). The second reminder message may include a specific description of the state of the food material, and may be accompanied by further treatment suggestions to ensure that the user avoids eating expired or spoiled food material.
[0091] It should be noted that users can view the storage status and maturity of ingredients in real time through the refrigerator's touch screen or APP, as well as remotely adjust the refrigerator's settings. The system records the storage data of ingredients and the adjustment history of environmental parameters, providing a basis for subsequent data analysis and system optimization.
[0092] In one embodiment, regarding the above-mentioned first reminder message and second reminder message, the system can select a fixed time or a user-defined time to use the refrigerator controller to voice remind the user to eat ingredients, remind the user to eat ingredients within a preset time, or suggest the user not to eat ingredients. The system can also use text or other methods to remind the user to eat ingredients, remind the user to eat ingredients within a preset time, or suggest the user not to eat ingredients on the panel screen set in the refrigerator. The system can also remind the user to eat ingredients, remind the user to eat ingredients within a preset time, or suggest the user not to eat ingredients by sending text messages or other methods on the APP. The embodiment of the present application does not specifically limit the method of sending the first reminder message and the second reminder message.
[0093] In one embodiment, when the fan rotates in a first direction, the airflow direction of the air flowing through the adsorption layer points to the open position of the ripening space.
[0094] It can be understood that by rotating the fan in the first direction so that the airflow direction of the air flowing through the adsorption layer is directed to the open position of the maturation space, the user can quickly smell the odor of the maturation space when the user opens the maturation space, so that the user can quickly judge the state of the maturation space.
[0095] like Figure 8 As shown, Figure 8 It is a logic diagram of a refrigerator control method provided by an embodiment of the present application, which may include but is not limited to steps S8001 to S8004.
[0096] Step S8001: The value of the odor sensor is greater than or equal to the threshold;
[0097] Step S8002, the fan rotates in a second direction;
[0098] Step S8003: the value of the odor sensor is less than the threshold;
[0099] Step S8004: The fan stops rotating.
[0100] In one embodiment, when the value of the odor sensor in the ripening space is greater than or equal to a threshold value, the fan rotates in a second direction, the odor is adsorbed through the adsorption layer, and the unabsorbed odor is catalyzed through the catalytic layer; when the value of the odor sensor is less than the threshold value, the fan stops rotating and no odor removal is performed.
[0101] like Fig. 9 As shown, Fig. 9 It is a logic diagram of a refrigerator control method provided by another embodiment of the present application, which may include but is not limited to steps S9001 to S9006.
[0102] Step S9001, characterizing the food as mature and edible according to the food maturity;
[0103] Step S9002: Indicating that the food is overripe and inedible based on the food maturity level;
[0104] Step S9003: The user opens the maturation space;
[0105] Step S9004, the fan rotates in a first direction to start the heating wire;
[0106] Step S9005: The user opens the maturation space;
[0107] Step S9006: the fan rotates in a second direction or stops rotating.
[0108] In one embodiment, when the maturity of the food is detected and the food is ripe and edible, the user is reminded to eat it. When the user opens the ripening space, the fan rotates in the first direction and the heating wire is activated, so that the adsorbed odor is blown out instantly for the user to perceive. If the user does not eat it in time, it is intelligently adjusted to the storage mode. When the user opens the ripening space during the edible time period, the fan rotates in the second direction and heats to release the odor; when the maturity of the food is detected and the food is overripe and inedible, the heating wire is turned on, and the fan rotates in the second direction or stops rotating to completely catalyze and remove the odor of the adsorption layer. When the user opens the door of the ripening space in the inedible stage, the odor will no longer be released.
[0109] In one embodiment, the fan is installed inside the air duct. When the maturity of the food is detected and the food is characterized as overripe and inedible, the heating wire is turned on, and the fan rotates in the second direction or stops rotating to completely catalyze and remove the odor of the adsorption layer. When the user opens the door of the ripening space in the inedible stage, the odor will no longer be released.
[0110] In one embodiment, the fan is installed inside the ripening space. When the maturity of the food is detected and the food is characterized as overripe and inedible, the heating wire is turned on and the fan stops rotating, completely catalyzing and removing the odor of the adsorption layer. When the user opens the door of the ripening space during the inedible stage, the odor will no longer be released.
