[0045] As the pace of life accelerates, the frequency of use of washing machines, dryers and other washing equipment is gradually increasing, and users are paying more and more attention to the intelligence and automation of washing equipment. After the user takes out the clothes from the washing machine after washing, there is a possibility that the user forgets to close the drum door. The long-term opening of the drum door of the washing machine will not only cause dust accumulation in the inner drum of the washing machine, but also may hinder the user's walking. In addition, the existing technical solution for controlling the closing of the drum door of the washing machine requires the user to perform simple manual operations to control the washing machine to close the drum door, which is not smart enough.

[0046] To this end, the present invention provides a control method for a washing device, which includes: detecting whether there are any clothes left in the washing device after the washing device has finished washing and a first preset time has passed; if not, controlling the drum door of the washing device to close. The present invention first detects whether there are any clothes left in the washing device, and then controls the drum door of the washing device to close according to the detection result, thereby realizing the function of controlling the drum door of the washing device to automatically close without manual operation by the user, and avoiding the problem of dust accumulation in the inner barrel of the washing device due to the user forgetting to close the drum door and the problem of the open drum door hindering the user from walking, thereby improving the user's use experience.

[0047] See attached Figure 1 , Figure 1 It is a flow chart of main steps of a method for controlling a washing device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, the control method of the washing device in the embodiment of the present invention mainly includes the following steps S100 to S200 after the washing of the washing device is completed and a first preset time has passed.

[0049] Step S100: Detect whether there are any clothes remaining in the washing device.

[0050] In this embodiment, the inner barrel information of the washing device is obtained, and then whether there are any clothes remaining in the washing device is detected based on the inner barrel information of the washing device.

[0051] Step S200: If not, control the drum door of the washing device to close.

[0052] In this embodiment, when it is detected that there is no clothing remaining in the washing device, the drum door of the washing device is controlled to close.

[0053] Based on the above steps S100 to S200, after the washing device finishes washing and the first preset time has passed, it is first detected whether there are any clothes remaining in the washing device, and then the drum door of the washing device is controlled to be closed according to the detection result, thereby realizing the function of controlling the automatic closing of the drum door of the washing device without manual operation by the user, avoiding the problem of dust accumulation in the inner drum of the washing device due to the user forgetting to close the drum door and the open drum door hindering the user from walking, thereby improving the user experience.

[0054] The above steps S100 and S200 are further explained below.

[0055] With respect to step S100, in one embodiment, the detecting whether there is any clothing residue in the washing device includes:

[0056] Acquire status information and inner barrel information of the washing device, wherein the status information includes the opening status of the barrel door;

[0057] When the drum door of the washing machine is in an open state, it is determined whether there are any clothes remaining in the washing machine based on the inner drum information.

[0058] Specifically, when detecting whether there are clothes left in the washing device in this embodiment, the state information and inner drum information of the washing device are first obtained, and when the washing device is in the drum door open state, whether there are clothes left in the washing device is determined based on the inner drum information. Before determining whether there are clothes left, it is determined that the washing device is in the drum door open state, which avoids repeatedly executing the drum door closing process when the washing device is already in the drum door closed state.

[0059] In one embodiment, the inner barrel information includes at least one of inner barrel load label information, inner barrel load weight information, and inner barrel load image information;

[0060] The determining whether there is any clothing residue in the washing device based on the inner barrel information includes:

[0061] Determining whether the inner barrel load label information is obtained, and if so, determining that there are clothes remaining in the washing device; and / or

[0062] Determining whether the inner barrel load weight information is greater than a preset weight threshold, and if so, determining that there are clothes remaining in the washing device; and / or

[0063] It is determined whether the recognition result of the inner barrel load image information includes clothes. If so, it is determined that there are clothes remaining in the washing device.

[0064] Specifically, the inner drum information includes at least one of inner drum load label information, inner drum load weight information and inner drum load image information. One or more judgment methods can be used to judge whether there are residual clothes in the washing device based on the inner drum information. For example, it can be judged whether the inner drum load label information is obtained. When it is judged that the inner drum load label information is obtained, it is determined that there are residual clothes in the washing device.

[0065] It is understandable that the inner barrel load tag information can be obtained by installing an RFID reader on the washing device, but this is not limited to this. In some specific embodiments, when the RFID reader obtains the inner barrel load tag information, it is determined that there are residual clothes in the washing device.

[0066] In this embodiment, it is also possible to determine whether there are any clothes remaining in the washing device by judging whether the inner drum load weight information is greater than the preset weight threshold. When the inner drum load weight information is greater than the preset weight threshold, it is determined that there are still residual clothes in the current washing device. When the inner drum load weight information is less than the preset weight threshold, it is determined that there are no residual clothes in the current washing device.

[0067] It is understandable that the inner barrel load weight information can be collected by a weighing sensor in the washing device.

[0068] In this embodiment, it is also possible to determine whether there are any clothes remaining in the washing device by identifying the inner drum load image information. Specifically, the inner drum load image information is first obtained, and then the inner drum load image information is identified according to a pre-trained neural network model to obtain identification information. When the identification information contains clothes, it is determined that there are still clothes remaining in the washing device. When the identification information does not contain clothes, it is determined that there are no clothes remaining in the current washing device.

[0069] Using multiple schemes to detect whether there are clothes residues in the washing machine can more accurately obtain the residual situation of clothes in the washing machine, and avoid the problem of recognition errors caused by using only one method for recognition or recognition failure caused by failure to obtain information.

[0070] The above is the description of step S100 , and the following is a further description of step S200 .

[0071] With respect to step S200, in one embodiment, before controlling the drum door of the washing device to close, the method further includes:

[0072] A preset reminder message is sent to remind the user that the drum door of the washing device is not closed, wherein the preset reminder message includes at least one of a sound reminder, a light reminder or a mobile terminal reminder.

[0073] Specifically, before controlling the drum door of the washing device to close, the user is reminded that the drum door of the washing device is not closed and will be controlled to close. The reminder information can be a sound reminder, a light reminder, or a reminder message sent to a mobile terminal pre-set by the user that can communicate with the washing device. Sending the reminder information can enable the user to understand the status of the washing device in real time and enhance the user's experience.

[0074] In one embodiment, after controlling the second preset time after the drum door of the washing device is closed, the method further includes:

[0075] Acquiring humidity information in the washing device;

[0076] determining whether there is residual water vapor in the washing device based on the humidity information;

[0077] If so, the drum door of the washing device is controlled to open.

[0078] Specifically, after the drum door of the washing device is controlled to be closed and a second preset time has passed, the humidity information in the washing device is detected. The humidity information can be collected by a humidity sensor of the washing device. When the collected humidity information exceeds a preset humidity threshold, it is determined that there is residual water vapor in the washing device and the drum door needs to be opened for ventilation, and the drum door of the washing device is controlled to be opened. In some embodiments, the humidity information can also be detected by a color change indicator. The color of the color change indicator changes according to the water vapor content. The color change of the color change indicator is identified by an image recognition device, thereby obtaining the humidity information in the washing device.

[0079] After a preset period of time has passed since the drum door of the washing device was controlled to be closed, the humidity information inside the washing device is detected, and then it is determined whether the drum door needs to be opened for ventilation based on the humidity information. This can avoid problems such as odor and bacterial growth caused by moisture in the drum after the drum door is closed.

[0080] In one embodiment, the determining whether water vapor remains in the washing device based on the humidity information includes:

[0081] Determining whether the humidity information is greater than a preset humidity threshold;

[0082] If so, it is determined that there is residual water vapor in the washing device.

[0083] In one embodiment, before controlling the drum door of the washing device to close or open, the method further includes:

[0084] Acquire image information within a preset range of the drum door of the washing device;

[0085] Identify the image information to obtain detection information within the preset range;

[0086] When the detection information does not include a human body, the drum door of the washing device is controlled to be closed or opened.

[0087] Specifically, before controlling the drum door of the washing device to close or open, image information of a preset range of the drum door of the washing device is collected, and the image information is recognized using a pre-trained neural network model to determine whether the recognized information contains a human body. When it is determined that a human body is not contained, the drum door of the washing device is controlled to close or open; when it is determined that a human body is contained, the drum door of the washing device is controlled to maintain a current state, and after a third preset time period, image information within a preset range of the drum door of the washing device is obtained again, and then it is determined whether to control the drum door of the washing device to close or open based on the newly obtained image information.

[0088] Before controlling the closing or opening of the drum door of the washing equipment, it is determined whether a human body can be detected within the moving range of the drum door. The drum door is controlled to close or open only when a human body is not contained. This can prevent the drum door from pinching the user during the closing process or bumping the user during the opening process.

[0089] See attached Figure 2 , Figure 2 It is a schematic diagram of detailed steps of a control method for a washing device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0090] like Figure 2 As shown, the control method of the washing device in this embodiment specifically includes the following steps:

[0091] Step S01: The washing device is started, and the washing program ends and a first preset time has passed.

[0092] Step S02: Obtain the door opening status information and inner drum information of the washing device.

[0093] Specifically, when the drum door of the washing device is in an open state, the inner tub information is obtained, wherein the inner tub information includes at least one of inner tub load label information, inner tub load weight information and inner tub load image information.

[0094] Step S03: Detect whether there are any clothes remaining in the washing device based on the inner barrel information.

[0095] Step S031: Determine whether the inner barrel load label information is obtained. If so, return to step S02; if not, execute step S04. When the washing device obtains the inner barrel load label information, it is determined that there are still residual clothes in the washing device, and then return to re-acquire the drum door opening state information and inner barrel information of the washing device; when the washing device does not obtain the inner barrel load label information, it is determined that there are no residual clothes in the washing device, and execute step S04.

[0096] Step S032: Determine whether the inner barrel load weight information is greater than a preset weight threshold. If so, return to step S02; if not, execute step S04. When the inner barrel load weight information collected by the washing device is greater than the preset weight threshold, it is determined that there are still residual clothes in the washing device, and then return to re-acquire the drum door opening state information and inner barrel information of the washing device; when the inner barrel load weight information of the washing device is less than the preset weight threshold, it is determined that there are no residual clothes in the washing device, and execute step S04.

[0097] Step S033: Determine whether the recognition result of the inner barrel load image information contains clothes. If so, return to step S02; if not, execute step S04. When the recognition result of the inner barrel load image information collected by the washing device contains clothes, it is determined that there are residual clothes in the washing device, and then return to re-acquire the drum door opening state information and inner barrel information of the washing device; when the recognition result of the inner barrel load image information of the washing device does not contain clothes, it is determined that there are no residual clothes in the washing device, and execute step S04.

[0098] Step S04: Sending a preset reminder message.

[0099] In this embodiment, the preset reminder information includes at least one of a sound reminder, a light reminder or a mobile terminal reminder.

[0100] Step S05: Determine whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device does not include a human body. If so, execute step S06; if not, wait for a third preset time and re-determine whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device does not include a human body.

[0101] It can be understood that before controlling the drum door of the washing device to close, it is determined whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device contains no human body. If not, step S06 is executed; if yes, after waiting for the third preset time, it is determined again whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device contains no human body.

[0102] Step S06: Control the drum door of the washing device to close.

[0103] Step S07: After a second preset time period has passed, the humidity information in the washing device is obtained. After the drum door of the washing device is controlled to be closed and the second preset time period has passed, the humidity information of the washing device is collected.

[0104] Step S08: Determine whether the humidity information is greater than a preset humidity threshold. If so, execute step S09; if not, return to step S06. When the humidity information is greater than the preset humidity threshold, it is determined that there is water vapor in the washing device, and the drum door of the washing device needs to be opened to allow the water vapor to evaporate; when the humidity information is less than the preset humidity threshold, return to step S06 and continue to keep the drum door of the washing device closed.

[0105] Step S09: Determine whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device does not contain a human body. If so, execute step S10; if not, wait for a fourth preset time and re-determine whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device does not contain a human body. It can be understood that before controlling the drum door of the washing device to open, determine whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device does not contain a human body. If not, execute step S10; if yes, wait for a fourth preset time and re-determine whether the preset range of the drum door of the washing device does not contain a human body.

[0106] Step S10: Control the drum door of the washing equipment to open.
