If foreign objects are mixed into the washing machine, the washing machine or the items put in may be damaged during the washing process; sharp objects are likely to damage the clothes during the rotation process.

[0036] The washing machine only adds detergent according to the amount of laundry, and if the detergent is added at a time, there will be uneven stirring.

[0037] In order to solve the above technical problems, this embodiment discloses a washing machine, which is specifically a drum washing machine, and may also be a pulsator washing machine, and of course may also be a drying machine.

[0038] In this embodiment, a drum washing machine is specifically used for exemplary description. The washing machine includes an outer drum, an inner drum, a door, and a shell, etc., wherein a rib is provided on the inner wall of the inner drum, and clothes are placed in the inner drum for washing, that is, the inner drum is the washing tub of the washing machine. The washing machine also includes a camera, which can take pictures of the inside of the inner drum, that is, can take pictures of the washing tub. The camera is specifically arranged on the shell, specifically at the front end of the washing tub, and at the inner side of the door seal, and is arranged toward the inside of the washing tub, so that it can take pictures of the scene inside the washing tub.

[0039] Regarding the installation position of the camera, it should be noted that although the camera is installed on the housing in this embodiment, this is not a limitation of the present invention. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, in other embodiments, a person skilled in the art may also install the camera on the door and install it toward the inside of the washing tub so that it can also capture the scene inside the washing tub. This does not deviate from the basic principle of the present invention and will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0040] A barrel light is arranged on the shell, and is arranged toward the inside of the washing barrel, so as to illuminate the inside of the washing barrel and improve the brightness inside the washing barrel, so that the scene inside the washing barrel can be clearly obtained when taking pictures.

[0041] Regarding the position of the bucket light, it should be noted that although it is set on the housing in this embodiment, this is not a limitation of the present invention. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, in other embodiments, the bucket light can also be set on the door and set toward the inside of the washing bucket to illuminate the inside of the washing bucket. This does not deviate from the basic principle of the present invention and will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0042] If the washing machine is a pulsator washing machine, the camera and the tub light are both arranged on the top of the shell or the inner side of the top cover.

[0043] The washing machine also includes a control module, which is configured to execute the control method of the washing machine. The washing machine is part of a smart home system, and the operation of the washing machine can be controlled by a mobile phone, tablet, etc. of the smart home system; specifically, the washing machine can be controlled to perform washing, rinsing, dehydration, and self-disinfection, etc. Some operation modes of the washing machine can be operated by the control module of the washing machine itself, or by other devices of the smart home system.

[0044] like Figure 1 As shown, the control method of the washing machine includes the following steps:

[0045] S001. Determine whether there is any foreign object in the washing tub; the foreign object specifically refers to living things (dogs, cats, lizards, hamsters, parrots, birds and other small animals suitable for family breeding), belts, watches, toys, mobile phones, necklaces, etc.

[0046] S002. When there is no foreign matter in the washing tub, add water and detergent into the washing tub in batches.

[0047] S003, washing.

[0048] Among them, "determining whether there is foreign matter in the washing tub" specifically includes the following steps:

[0049] Take a first photo of the washing tub, and then determine whether there is a foreign object in the washing tub based on the taken photo. In order to ensure the accuracy of the result, multiple photos need to be taken during the photo-taking process, specifically no less than five photos. In addition, the washing tub should be rotated during the photo-taking process, so that the clothes in the washing tub are turned over, and pictures from various positions and angles are taken as much as possible, so as to ensure the accuracy of the results in the subsequent image recognition process.

[0050] After taking the photo, the photo can be identified to determine what is in the washing tub; and whether there is a foreign object in the washing tub can be determined based on the type and name of the object. Identifying the object in the photo is a conventional technical means in the field of photographing and identifying objects, and its specific algorithm will not be described in detail in the present invention.

[0051] “Determining whether there is foreign matter in the washing tub according to the photo” specifically includes the following steps:

[0052] Determine whether there is any foreign matter in the content of the photo.

[0053] If there is a foreign object in the content of the photo, it is determined that there is a foreign object in the washing tub, and then the door of the washing machine is automatically opened and an alarm is sounded. If the foreign object is a living thing, opening the door of the washing machine can allow the living thing to come out by itself to avoid being suffocated in the washing tub due to stuffiness. If it is a foreign object such as other dead objects, it is convenient for the user to take it out; it also prevents the user from forcibly washing. The alarm specifically includes: issuing an alarm prompt on a remote smart terminal, which can be a warning sound and a warning light; issuing a warning sound and a warning light on smart home appliances at home, which can be a warning sound on a smart speaker or smart TV, etc., and a warning light on a smart TV or smart light, so that people at home can know that there is a foreign object in the washing tub and deal with it in time.

[0054] If there is no foreign object in the content of the photo, it is determined that there is no foreign object in the washing tub; the washing machine can proceed with the subsequent washing program.

[0055] The control method of the washing machine also includes the following steps:

[0056] Before taking the first photo in the washing tub, it is determined whether to turn on the tub light according to the brightness in the washing tub.

[0057] “Determining whether to turn on the bucket light according to the brightness in the washing bucket” specifically includes the following steps:

[0058] Acquire the brightness in the washing tub; specifically, a brightness sensor may be provided in the washing tub, and the brightness in the washing tub is acquired by the brightness sensor.

[0059] Determine whether the brightness in the washing tub is lower than a preset brightness.

[0060] If the brightness inside the washing tub is lower than the preset brightness, turn on the tub light to illuminate the inside of the washing tub to ensure clarity of the first photo.

[0061] If the brightness inside the washing tub is not lower than the preset brightness, there is no need to turn on the tub light. The brightness inside the washing tub can ensure the clarity of the first photo.

[0062] “Adding water and detergent into the washing tub in batches” specifically includes the following steps:

[0063] According to the preliminary determination result of the material of the clothes in the washing tub and the weight and color of the clothes, the initial input amount of detergent is determined and added. Among them, the initial total input amount of detergent is determined according to the preliminary determination result of the material of the clothes, the weight and the color, and then the initial input amount is half of the initial total input amount; the initial input amount of detergent is determined according to the preliminary determination result of the material and the color in a proportion manner. Specifically, the basic input amount of detergent is determined according to the weight of the clothes, and then the input amount is adjusted according to the color and the preliminary determined material. Specifically, it is increased or decreased on the original basis, but the reduction range does not exceed the first preset value, and the increase range cannot exceed the second preset value, wherein the first preset value is preferably 20% in this embodiment, and it can also be 25%, 15% or 10% in other embodiments, and the second preset value is preferably 80% in this embodiment, and it can also be 70%, 60% or 50% in other embodiments, and it is specifically determined according to ensuring the basic washing cleanliness of the clothes. Among them, the color that is easy to fade will reduce the amount of detergent accordingly, and specifically, other dark clothes other than black will reduce the amount of detergent accordingly. For colors that are not easy to fade, such as black or white, and when the stains are serious, the amount of detergent can be increased accordingly. For materials that are easy to fade, the amount of detergent will be reduced accordingly, such as denim clothes; for materials that are not easy to fade, and when the stains are stubborn or large, the amount of detergent will be increased accordingly. The initial input amount is half of the adjusted input amount, which can ensure that the detergent will not be overdosed in the end, and can also ensure that the clothes are fully soaked with detergent. The initial input amount of detergent is adjusted according to the color first, and then according to the initial material.

[0064] The control method of the washing machine further comprises the following steps:

[0065] A second photo is taken of the contents of the washing tub, and the color of the clothes and the material of the clothes are determined based on the taken photo. In order to ensure the accuracy of the subsequent image recognition results, the washing tub needs to be rotated during the second photo shooting process so that the clothes in the washing tub can be turned over, and then pictures can be taken at various positions and angles, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the subsequent detection results.

[0066] The color of the clothes is determined based on the pictures taken, specifically, because the colors of a single piece of clothing may be inconsistent, and the colors of multiple pieces of clothing may also be inconsistent; therefore, the colors of the clothes in the washing tub are diverse; finally, the color of the clothes is determined based on the color with the largest color area, that is, the color with the largest color area in the washing tub is the final color, so as to determine the initial amount of detergent input.

[0067] The name of each piece of clothing can be determined based on the captured image (specifically, the name of the clothing in the image can be determined based on the image recognition function), the type of each piece of clothing can be determined based on the name of the clothing, and the volume of the clothing can be determined based on the image of each piece of clothing; the volume of all clothing in each type is added together to obtain the total volume. The type with the largest total volume is identified as the type of clothing in the washing tub.

[0068] Each type of clothing has a common material, and each type of clothing is classified according to the common material; the volume of clothing of the same material is added together. The material with the largest total volume is determined as the initial material of the clothing in the washing tub.

[0069] The control method of the washing machine also includes the following steps:

[0070] Before taking a second photo of the washing tub, it is determined whether to turn on the tub light according to the brightness of the washing tub.

[0071] “Determining whether to turn on the bucket light according to the brightness in the washing bucket” specifically includes the following steps:

[0072] Get the brightness inside the wash tub.

[0073] Determine whether the brightness in the washing tub is lower than a preset brightness.

[0074] If the brightness inside the washing tub is lower than the preset brightness, the tub light is turned on to illuminate the inside of the washing tub to ensure clarity of the second photo.

[0075] If the brightness inside the washing tub is not lower than the preset brightness, there is no need to turn on the tub light. The brightness inside the washing tub can ensure the clarity of the second photo.

[0076] The control method of the washing machine further comprises the following steps:

[0077] Before determining the initial amount of detergent to be added, the weight of the clothes is determined; specifically, a weight sensor or a gravimeter or other weight-testing device is provided in the washing machine, and the total weight of the clothes can be obtained after the clothes are placed in the washing tub. In this embodiment, preferably, before taking the second photo, the total weight of the clothes is obtained after confirming that there is no foreign matter in the washing tub.

[0078] Regarding obtaining the total weight of the clothes, it should be noted that although in this embodiment, the total weight of the clothes is obtained before the second photo is taken and after determining that there are no foreign objects in the washing tub. However, this is not a limitation of the present invention. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, in other embodiments, those skilled in the art may also obtain the total weight of the clothes during the second photo, or after the second photo and before determining the initial amount of detergent input. This does not deviate from the basic principles of the present invention and therefore falls within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0079] “Adding water and detergent into the washing bucket in batches” specifically includes the following steps:

[0080] After determining the initial amount of detergent input, water is added to a first preset water level, and the washing tub is rotated for a first preset time. After adding water to the first preset water level, rotating the washing tub can turn over and soak the clothes in the washing tub, and the initially input detergent is completely dissolved in the washing water and soaked into the clothes.

[0081] The first preset water level is half of the initial water level, which can ensure that the clothes can be fully soaked and that the added water does not exceed the total water volume.

[0082] “Adding water and detergent into the washing bucket in batches” specifically includes the following steps:

[0083] After the washing tub rotates for a first preset time, the material and type of the clothes are determined again, the amount of detergent to be added again and the second preset water level are confirmed, and the remaining detergent is added and water is added to the second preset water level.

[0084] The amount of detergent adjusted according to the color is used as the basic amount for this adjustment, the amount of detergent is adjusted according to the material of the clothes, and then the input amount is adjusted according to the material and type. Specifically, it is increased or decreased on the original basis, but the reduction does not exceed the third preset value, and the increase does not exceed the fourth preset value. The third preset value is preferably 20% in this embodiment, and it can also be 25%, 15% or 10% in other embodiments. The fourth preset value is preferably 80% in this embodiment, and it can also be 70%, 60% or 50% in other embodiments, which is specifically determined according to the basic washing cleanliness of the clothes. Among them, the material that is easy to fade will reduce the amount of detergent accordingly, for example, the amount of detergent used for denim clothes will be reduced; the material that is not easy to fade, and the stains are stubborn or large, will increase the amount of detergent accordingly. The type that is easy to clean will reduce the amount of detergent accordingly, and the type that is not easy to clean will increase the amount of detergent accordingly; for example, in summer or when the underwear is thin and easy to clean, the amount of detergent can be reduced; in winter or when the outerwear is thick and not easy to clean, the amount of detergent can be increased.

[0085] The remaining amount of detergent is the final amount of detergent used minus the initial amount. The remaining amount of detergent is adjusted first according to the material and then according to the type.

[0086] “Washing” specifically includes the following steps:

[0087] Washing parameters are determined according to the color, type, weight and material of the clothes, and washing is performed according to the washing parameters.

[0088] The initial washing mode is determined according to the weight, and then adjusted according to the color, material and type. Specifically, for clothes with colors that fade easily, the washing intensity and washing time are reduced, while for clothes with colors that do not fade easily, the washing intensity and washing time can be increased accordingly; for clothes made of materials that are easy to clean, the washing intensity and washing time are reduced, while for clothes made of materials that are not easy to clean, the washing intensity and washing time can be increased accordingly; for clothes of types that fade easily, the washing intensity and washing time are reduced, while for clothes of types that are not easy to clean, the washing intensity and washing time can be increased accordingly.

[0089] The control method of the washing machine in this embodiment is described in detail by connecting to a smart home system and remotely controlling the washing machine. Figure 2 As shown, it specifically includes the following steps:
