Abstract
Description
Technical Field

[0002] A refrigerator is a refrigeration device that maintains a constant low temperature and can extend the shelf life of food. High-temperature air flows through the evaporator, the air temperature drops, and cold air blows into the refrigerator. The refrigerator lowers the temperature of the refrigerator through gas circulation. Among them, the refrigerator's cold storage room is mostly used to store fresh vegetables and fruits, which plays a role in preserving freshness. Controlling the temperature of the cold storage room can meet the needs of most fresh-keeping ingredients.
[0003] At present, the control of the existing refrigerator refrigeration system is based on the temperature in the refrigerator compartment, and the difference between the set temperatures is combined to adjust the compressor to control the refrigeration system. When a high-temperature object is placed in the refrigerator compartment, the temperature in the compartment will change due to the placement of the high-temperature object. However, the sensor at the return air outlet of the compartment will not immediately detect the change in the temperature in the compartment, but will respond to the temperature change in the compartment with a lag, so that the temperature increase caused by the placement of the object in the refrigerator compartment cannot be predicted in time, and the operation of the refrigeration system cannot be controlled in time and accurately.

[0048] In this embodiment, a refrigerator refrigeration control method is provided. Figure 2 is a flow chart of the refrigerator refrigeration control method of this embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps:
[0049] Step S201, obtaining a first total cooling capacity required by each compartment, wherein the first total cooling capacity is the sum of cooling capacities required by all objects in each compartment.
[0050] Specifically, the refrigerator has a single compartment and multiple compartments, wherein both single compartment and multiple compartment refrigerators are suitable for the solution of this embodiment, and this embodiment takes the multiple compartment refrigerator as an example for explanation. In order to accurately control the operation of the compressor and the fan to prevent the situation of excess or insufficient refrigeration capacity, this embodiment controls the first speed of the compressor and the first speed of the fan by accurately detecting the refrigeration capacity required for refrigerating the objects in each compartment. Among them, each compartment is first separately configured with an image recognition device for identifying the objects put in or taken out. First, when each object is put into the refrigerator, each object is first identified by the image recognition device, and the refrigeration capacity required for each object to reach the preset refrigeration temperature is determined according to the recognition result, and the refrigeration capacity required for refrigerating all the stored objects is added to obtain the refrigeration capacity required for each compartment. When an object is taken out, the taken out object is identified by the image recognition device, and the refrigeration capacity required for refrigerating the object is calculated. On the basis of the refrigeration capacity required for the original object in the compartment, the refrigeration capacity required for the taken out object is deducted, and then the calculated refrigeration capacity of each compartment is added to obtain the first total refrigeration capacity.
[0051] Step S202: determining a first speed of the compressor and a first speed of the fan according to a first total cooling capacity and a preset cooling time.
[0052] Specifically, first, the compressor speed and the fan speed are tested for cooling capacity by a cooling capacity tester, and the cooling capacity obtained by different compressor speeds and fan speeds within a unit time (for example, within 1 minute) is counted, so as to obtain a speed and cooling capacity matching table. The higher the speed, the higher the cooling capacity generated. After the first total cooling capacity is calculated, the cooling capacity within a unit time is obtained according to the set cooling time, and according to the cooling capacity required within the unit time, the corresponding compressor speed and fan speed on the speed and cooling capacity matching table are matched to obtain the first compressor speed N1 and the first fan speed V1.
[0053] Step S203: Detect the temperature of each compartment, and calculate the temperature difference between the temperature of each compartment and a preset temperature threshold to obtain the second total cooling capacity required by each compartment.
[0054] Specifically, in order to better control the energy consumption of the equipment, the temperature of the compartment is detected. When an object is placed in or taken out of the refrigerator, the temperature of the compartment is detected by a temperature sensor in the compartment, and the temperature difference between the detected temperature of the compartment and a preset temperature threshold is calculated. The refrigeration capacity required for refrigeration of the compartment is determined according to the temperature difference. If objects are taken out or placed in multiple compartments, the refrigeration capacity required for refrigeration of the multiple compartments is counted according to the temperature difference to obtain the second total refrigeration capacity.
[0055] Step S204: determining a second speed of the compressor and a second speed of the fan according to the second total cooling capacity and the preset cooling time.
[0056] The required cooling capacity per unit time is calculated based on the second total cooling capacity and the preset cooling time. The corresponding compressor speed and fan speed are matched according to the required cooling capacity per unit time and the speed and cooling capacity matching table obtained from the above test to obtain the second compression speed N2 and the second fan speed V2.
[0057] Step S205, compare the first speed of the compressor and the second speed of the compressor, and use the smaller compressor speed as the compressor target speed; compare the first speed of the fan and the second speed of the fan, and use the smaller fan speed as the fan target speed; perform cooling according to the compressor target speed and the fan target speed.
[0058] Specifically, the first compressor speed N1 and the second compressor speed N2 detected by the two methods are compared, and based on the consideration of energy saving, the smaller compressor speed is selected as the target compressor speed; the first fan speed V1 and the second fan speed V2 detected by the two methods are compared, and similarly, the smaller fan speed is selected as the target fan speed; the compressor is controlled to run at the target compressor speed for a preset time for cooling, and the fan is controlled to run at the target fan speed for a preset time for cooling.
[0059] Through the above steps S201 to S205, a first total cooling capacity required by each compartment is obtained, wherein the first total cooling capacity is the sum of the cooling capacities required by all objects in each compartment; a first speed of the compressor and a first speed of the fan are determined according to the first total cooling capacity and a preset cooling time; the temperature of each compartment is detected, and a temperature difference between the temperature of each compartment and a preset temperature threshold is calculated to obtain a second total cooling capacity required by each compartment; a second speed of the compressor and a second speed of the fan are determined according to the second total cooling capacity and the preset cooling time; the first speed of the compressor and the second speed of the compressor are compared, and the smaller compressor speed is used as the compressor target speed; the first speed of the fan and the second speed of the fan are compared, and the smaller fan speed is used as the fan target speed; and cooling is performed according to the compressor target speed and the fan target speed. Compared with the prior art in which the rotation speeds of the compressor and the fan are adjusted by only detecting the temperature of the compartment by a temperature sensor, when the present embodiment detects that an object in any compartment in the refrigerator has changed, the refrigeration capacity required by the object in the refrigerator is recalculated, and the first rotation speed of the compressor and the first rotation speed of the fan are matched according to the calculated new refrigeration capacity demand, and then the temperature difference between the compartment temperature and the preset temperature is calculated to obtain the second rotation speed of the compressor and the second rotation speed of the fan, and the first rotation speed of the compressor and the second rotation speed of the compressor, the first rotation speed of the fan and the second rotation speed of the fan are comprehensively compared to obtain the optimal speed, and the refrigeration operation is controlled by the optimal speed, thereby improving the accuracy of the refrigerator refrigeration control, improving the refrigeration effect and reducing energy waste.
[0060] In some embodiments, obtaining a first total cooling capacity required by each compartment includes:
[0061] When a new object is detected in one of the rooms, the new cooling capacity required for cooling the new object is calculated, and the new cooling capacity is added to the cooling capacity required for the original objects in each room to obtain the new total cooling capacity;
[0062] When it is detected that an object is taken out of one of the chambers, the refrigeration capacity required for cooling the taken out object is calculated, and the refrigeration capacity required for cooling the taken out object is deducted from the refrigeration capacity required for the original objects in each chamber to obtain a new total refrigeration capacity.
[0063] Specifically, since the objects in the refrigerator may change at any time, being taken out or having new objects put in will affect the refrigeration capacity required in each compartment. When the objects in the compartment change, the first total refrigeration capacity required for each compartment needs to be re-counted, wherein, when it is detected that a new object is stored in one of the compartments, the temperature of the new object is relatively high, which will affect the temperature of the entire compartment. When the new object is put in, the new object is first identified in the image recognition device, and the refrigeration capacity required for refrigerating the new object is calculated by the image recognition device. In this way, when a new object is stored, the refrigeration capacity calculated for the new object is automatically added to the refrigeration capacity calculated in the original compartments to obtain a new first total refrigeration capacity. Similarly, when an object is taken out, the object is identified in the image recognition device, and the refrigeration capacity required for refrigerating the taken out object is calculated by the image recognition device, and the refrigeration capacity of the taken out object is deducted from the refrigeration capacity calculated in the original compartments to obtain a new first total refrigeration capacity.
[0064] In another embodiment, when it is detected that a new object is stored in one of the chambers, calculating the new refrigeration capacity required for cooling the new object includes: obtaining the heat of the new object according to the mass of the new object, and calculating the new refrigeration capacity required for cooling the new object according to the heat of the new object;
[0065] When it is detected that an object is taken out of one of the chambers, the refrigeration capacity required for cooling the taken out object is calculated, including: obtaining the heat of the taken out object according to the mass of the taken out object, and calculating the refrigeration capacity required for cooling the taken out object according to the heat of the taken out object.
[0066] Specifically, the image recognition device is used to detect whether a new object is stored in the compartment or an old object is taken out. When an object is stored in or taken out, the image recognition device is used to detect the mass of the object, and at the same time, the temperature of the object and the temperature of the refrigerator compartment where the object is located are detected. The heat calculation formula is used to calculate the heat consumed to cool the object to the preset refrigeration temperature of the compartment, wherein the heat calculation formula is as follows:
[0067]
[0068] Where c is the specific heat capacity of the object, q m is the mass of the object, t2 is the temperature of the object, and t1 is the preset refrigeration temperature of the compartment;
[0069] The calculated amount of heat consumed by the object for cooling is the cooling capacity of the object. If a new object is taken out, the calculated cooling capacity is deducted from the total cooling capacity required for cooling all objects in the original compartments. If a new object is stored, the calculated cooling capacity is added to the total cooling capacity required for cooling all objects in the original compartments, thereby obtaining a new first total cooling capacity after the change. The first compressor speed and the first fan speed are determined based on the new first total cooling capacity. At the same time, the temperature difference is recalculated through the temperature sensor to obtain a new second compressor speed and second fan speed. Finally, based on energy saving considerations, a smaller compressor speed and fan speed are selected to cool the refrigerator compartments.
[0070] In some of these embodiments, Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the image recognition device in this embodiment, which detects whether an object is stored or taken out of the chamber through the image recognition device, wherein, Figure 3 As shown, the image recognition device 30 includes a camera 31, an infrared sensor 32, a storage table 33 with a pressure sensor, and a control board 34; the specific heat capacity of the object is obtained by the camera 31, the temperature value of the object is detected by the infrared sensor 32, the mass of the object is obtained by the storage table 33, and the cooling capacity required in each compartment is summarized by the control board 34.
[0071] Specifically, the image recognition device detects whether an object is stored or taken out of the compartment. The image recognition device 30 is mainly composed of a camera 31, an infrared sensor 32, a storage table 33 with a pressure sensor, and a control board 34; wherein the camera 31 is used to obtain the specific heat capacity of the object; the infrared sensor 32 is used to detect the temperature value of the object; the storage table 33 is used to obtain the mass of the object; and the control board 34 is used to summarize the refrigeration required in each compartment. When the user stores the object to be refrigerated in the refrigerator, he only needs to place the object on the storage table 33 with a pressure sensor. The system will calculate the mass of the substance according to the pressure change on the storage table 33. The camera 31 will autonomously identify the type of the object and search for the specific heat capacity of the object entered into the system in advance. The infrared sensor 32 detects the temperature of the object. The control board 34 calculates the heat of the object according to the data obtained by the detection of each component, and then obtains the refrigeration required for refrigerating the object.
[0072] In another embodiment, determining a first compressor speed and a first fan speed according to a first total cooling capacity and a preset cooling time includes:
[0073] According to the first total cooling capacity and the preset cooling time, the first cooling capacity required per unit time is obtained, and the preset speed gradient table is matched according to the first cooling capacity required per unit time to determine the first speed of the compressor and the first speed of the fan, wherein the preset speed gradient table is obtained by testing in advance. When the first cooling capacity per unit time does not match the corresponding compressor speed and fan speed in the preset speed gradient table, it also includes:
[0074] According to the preset speed gradient table, the first speed of the compressor and the first speed of the fan are calculated by linear interpolation method.
[0075] When the calculated first speed of the compressor is greater than the rated threshold of the compressor, the rated threshold of the compressor is used as the first speed of the compressor; when the calculated first speed of the fan is greater than the rated threshold of the fan, the rated threshold of the fan is used as the first speed of the fan.
[0076] Specifically, first, the compressor speed and the fan speed are tested for cooling capacity by a cooling capacity tester, the compressor speed and the fan speed are set according to a certain gradient ratio, and the cooling capacity obtained by different compressor speeds and fan speeds within a unit time (for example, within 1 minute) is counted, thereby obtaining a speed gradient table. The higher the speed, the higher the cooling capacity generated. After the first total cooling capacity is calculated, the first cooling capacity required within the unit time is obtained according to the set cooling time. According to the first cooling capacity required within the unit time, the corresponding compressor speed and fan speed on the speed gradient table are matched to obtain the first compressor speed N1 and the first fan speed V1.
[0077] In addition, when the first cooling capacity per unit time is not matched to the corresponding compressor speed and fan speed in the preset speed gradient table, the first compressor speed and the first fan speed are calculated using the linear interpolation method based on the data collected in the preset speed gradient table. For example, the compressor speed corresponding to the cooling capacity Q1 is N1, and the compressor speed corresponding to the cooling capacity Q2 is N2. Then for any cooling capacity Q between Q1 and Q2, the corresponding compressor speed N can be calculated using the following linear interpolation formula:
[0078] N=N1+(Q-Q1)×(N2-N1) / (Q2-Q1);
[0079] Similarly, the fan speed can also be calculated using a similar linear interpolation formula.
[0080] In addition, the rated threshold of the compressor and fan refers to the maximum safe operating speed determined when the equipment is designed and manufactured. This threshold is usually determined by the manufacturer based on factors such as the material, structure, and durability of the equipment, and is clearly marked in the technical specifications of the equipment. In the refrigeration system, the speed of the compressor and fan needs to be dynamically adjusted according to the refrigeration demand. However, in order to ensure the safety of the equipment and extend its service life, it is necessary to ensure that the speed does not exceed the rated threshold. Exceeding the rated speed may cause overheating, mechanical failure, or even damage to the equipment. If the calculated first speed of the compressor exceeds its rated threshold, the control system will automatically adjust the speed of the compressor to the rated threshold. Even if the refrigeration demand is higher, the compressor will run at the maximum safe speed and use the maximum safe speed of the compressor as the first speed of the compressor. Similarly, if the calculated speed of the fan exceeds its rated threshold, the control system will also limit the speed of the fan to the maximum safe speed and use the maximum safe speed of the fan as the first speed of the fan.
[0081] This embodiment also provides a refrigerator refrigeration control method. Figure 4 is a flow chart of another refrigerator refrigeration control method of this embodiment. Figure 4 As shown, the process includes the following steps:
[0082] Step S401, determine whether an object is deposited or taken out, if a new object is deposited, execute step S402, if an object is taken out, execute step S408;
[0083] Step S402, calculating the new cooling capacity required for cooling the new object, and adding the new cooling capacity to the cooling capacity required for the original objects in each compartment to obtain a first total cooling capacity;
[0084] Step S403, determining a first speed of the compressor and a first speed of the fan according to the first total cooling capacity and the preset cooling time;
[0085] Step S404, detecting the temperature of each compartment, and calculating the temperature difference between the temperature of each compartment and a preset temperature threshold, to obtain the second total cooling capacity required by each compartment;
[0086] Step S405, determining a second speed of the compressor and a second speed of the fan according to the second total cooling capacity and the preset cooling time;
[0087] Step S406, comparing the first compressor speed and the second compressor speed, and using the smaller compressor speed as the compressor target speed; comparing the first fan speed and the second fan speed, and using the smaller fan speed as the fan target speed;
[0088] Step S407, performing cooling according to the target speed of the compressor and the target speed of the fan; after the cooling is completed, returning to step S401.
[0089] Step S408, calculating the refrigeration capacity required for cooling the removed object, and deducting the refrigeration capacity required for cooling the removed object from the refrigeration capacity required for the original objects in each compartment to obtain a first total refrigeration capacity, and returning to step S403.
[0090] Through the above steps S401 to S408, compared with the prior art in which the rotation speeds of the compressor and the fan are adjusted by only detecting the temperature of the compartment by the temperature sensor, when the present embodiment detects that the object in any compartment in the refrigerator has changed, the refrigeration capacity required by the object in the refrigerator is recalculated, and the first rotation speed of the compressor and the first rotation speed of the fan are matched according to the calculated new refrigeration capacity demand, and then the temperature difference between the compartment temperature and the preset temperature is calculated to obtain the second rotation speed of the compressor and the second rotation speed of the fan, and the first rotation speed of the compressor and the second rotation speed of the compressor, the first rotation speed of the fan and the second rotation speed of the fan are comprehensively compared to obtain the optimal speed, and the refrigeration operation is controlled by the optimal speed, thereby improving the accuracy of the refrigerator refrigeration control, improving the refrigeration effect and reducing energy waste.
