Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of humidifiers, and in particular to a sterilization control method, a storage medium, an electronic device and a humidifying device. Background Art

[0002] As a common household appliance, humidifiers play a positive role in improving living environment and comfort. However, due to the working characteristics of humidifiers, the temperature and humidity inside the humidifiers are often prone to bacterial growth. In this regard, in the prior art, the inside of the humidifier is usually sterilized by UV light irradiation or adding sterilizing agents.

[0003] However, when using UV light for sterilization, it can generally only effectively sterilize the water in the water tank. Even if the over-flow UV method is used for sterilization, there are still problems such as low over-flow efficiency and insufficient one-time sterilization effect. In addition, in order to avoid excessive energy consumption, it is usually necessary to control the UV light to run intermittently, which affects the sterilization effect. When adding a sterilizing agent, such as electrolyzing water hypochlorous acid for sterilization, it may produce a pungent odor, which affects the user experience.

[0004] Accordingly, the art needs a new technical solution to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve at least one of the above problems in the prior art, that is, to solve the problem that the existing humidifier has poor sterilization effect and affects the user experience, the present application provides a sterilization control method for a humidifying device, the humidifying device comprising a humidifying cotton, a water tank and a water supply pipeline, the water supply pipeline is connected to the water tank, the water supply pipeline can supply water to the humidifying cotton, and a heater is provided on the water supply pipeline;

[0006] The sterilization control method comprises:

[0007] Obtaining the current water level of the water tank;

[0008] Based on the current water level, determining the sterilization time required for the humidification device;

[0009] Based on the sterilization time, the operation of the heater is controlled.

[0010] When adopting the above technical solution, high-temperature sterilization can be achieved when water flows through the humidifying cotton, and the excess water on the humidifying cotton will flow back to the water tank. When the required sterilization time is determined by the current water level of the water tank, it can be ensured that during the sterilization process, all water bodies are involved in the high-temperature circulation. At this time, the high-temperature water flow can achieve effective sterilization of the entire water channel and the humidifying cotton as a whole, and while ensuring the sterilization effect, no other odors and harmful substances are generated.

[0011] In the preferred technical solution of the above sterilization control method, the sterilization control method further comprises:

[0012] During the operation of the humidifying device, the heater is controlled to operate intermittently.

[0013] When the above technical solution is adopted, the heater can be turned off when the bacteria content in the water body, pipeline and humidification cotton is low, thereby avoiding energy waste.

[0014] In the preferred technical solution of the above sterilization control method, the humidifying device is provided with a plurality of gears, and the gears are used to characterize the rotation speed of the fan blades, and the controlling of the intermittent operation of the heater further comprises:

[0015] Get gear information;

[0016] Based on the gear information, determining the waiting time of the heater;

[0017] Based on the sterilization time and the waiting time, the heater is controlled to operate intermittently.

[0018] In the preferred technical solution of the above sterilization control method, the gear information includes historical gears, and the step of determining the waiting time of the heater based on the gear information further includes:

[0019] Based on the historical gear position, determining the waiting time of the heater;

[0020] The historical gear position is used to represent the gear position of the heater during its historical operation.

[0021] When the above technical solution is adopted, the time required for bacterial reproduction can be determined by the historical gear position of the humidifier, so that sterilization can be performed again before the bacterial content increases, so that the humidifier maintains a low bacterial content state.

[0022] In the preferred technical solution of the above sterilization control method, the historical gears include multiple ones, and the determination of the waiting time of the heater based on the historical gears further includes:

[0023] The waiting time of the heater is determined based on a highest gear among the plurality of historical gears.

[0024] When the above technical solution is adopted, since the higher the gear, the faster the air passes through the humidification cotton, the faster the bacteria multiply. When the waiting time is determined by the highest gear in the historical gear, the waiting time can be determined according to the most unfavorable situation, so as to ensure that the humidification device continues to maintain a low bacterial content state.

[0025] In the preferred technical solution of the above sterilization control method, the sterilization control method further comprises:

[0026] When the water level in the water tank is lower than a preset water level threshold, the heater is controlled to operate.

[0027] When adopting the above technical solution, since the humidifier needs to automatically shut down when the water level is lower than a certain value to ensure safe operation, and the water in the water tank cannot be completely exhausted before automatic shutdown, it is easy to cause bacterial proliferation after long-term storage. Therefore, when sterilizing the humidifier before it automatically shuts down, it can be ensured that the humidifier is shut down when the bacterial content is extremely low, so as to minimize the impact of bacterial proliferation on the subsequent use of the humidifier.

[0028] In the preferred technical solution of the above sterilization control method, the sterilization control method further comprises:

[0029] When the humidifying device is turned on, the heater is controlled to operate, and the current water level of the water tank is obtained;

[0030] Based on the current water level, determining the sterilization time required for the humidification device;

[0031] After the heater runs for the sterilization time, the heater is controlled to stop running.

[0032] When the above technical solution is adopted, sterilization can be performed immediately when the humidifier is turned on. At this time, on the one hand, the bacteria generated when the humidifier is in a shutdown state can be killed, and on the other hand, the water injected into the humidifier can be sterilized, so as to ensure that the humidifier maintains a low bacterial content during the entire operation process.

[0033] The present application also provides a computer-readable storage medium, in which a plurality of program codes are stored, and the program codes are suitable for being loaded and run by a processor to execute any of the above-mentioned sterilization control methods.

[0034] The present application also provides an electronic device, comprising a processor and a storage device, wherein the storage device is suitable for storing a plurality of program codes, and the program codes are suitable for being loaded and run by the processor to execute any of the above-mentioned sterilization control methods.

[0035] The present application also provides a humidifying device, which includes the above-mentioned electronic device.

[0036] When adopting the above technical solution, high-temperature sterilization can be achieved when water flows through the humidifying cotton, and the excess water on the humidifying cotton will flow back to the water tank. When the required sterilization time is determined by the current water level in the water tank, it can be ensured that during the sterilization process, all water bodies are involved in the high-temperature circulation. At this time, the high-temperature water flow can achieve effective sterilization of the entire water channel and the humidifying cotton as a whole, and while ensuring the sterilization effect of the humidifying device, no other odors and harmful substances are generated.

[0050] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. For example, although the humidifier in the accompanying drawings has air intake from the side and air outlet from the top, this positional relationship is not static, and those skilled in the art can adjust it as needed to adapt to specific application scenarios. For example, the humidifier is set to have air intake on one side and air outlet on the other side.

In addition, in the description of the present application, "multiple" means at least two.

[0052] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0053] As described in the background technology, humidifiers are common household appliances that play a positive role in improving living environment and comfort. However, due to the working characteristics of humidifiers, the temperature and humidity inside the humidifiers are often prone to bacterial growth. In this regard, in the prior art, humidifiers are usually sterilized by UV light irradiation or adding sterilizing agents.

[0054] However, when using UV light for sterilization, it can generally only effectively sterilize the water in the water tank. Even if the over-flow UV method is used for sterilization, there are still problems such as low over-flow efficiency and insufficient one-time sterilization effect. In addition, in order to avoid excessive energy consumption, it is usually necessary to control the UV light to run intermittently, which affects the sterilization effect. When adding a sterilizing agent, such as electrolyzing water hypochlorous acid for sterilization, it may produce a pungent odor, which affects the user experience.

[0055] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 5 , the humidification device of the present application is described. Among them, Figure 1 This is the overall structural diagram of the humidification device of the present application; Figure 2 This is a diagram of the internal structure of the humidification device of the present application; Figure 3This is a diagram of the internal structure of the installation box of this application; Figure 4 A structural diagram of the installation framework for this application; Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the connection between the installation box and the installation frame of the present application.

[0056] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, the humidifying device includes a housing 10 and a water tank 20, a heater 30, a humidifying cotton 40, a mounting frame 50, a water seepage box 60 and a fan blade 70 located inside the housing 10. Among them, an air inlet 11 is provided on the peripheral side of the housing 10, and an air outlet 12 is provided on the top of the housing 10. The water tank 20 is located below the humidifying cotton 40, and a water supply pipeline connected to the water tank 20 is provided in the housing 10, and water can be supplied to the humidifying cotton 40 through the water supply pipeline. The humidifying cotton 40 is arranged on the mounting frame 50, the water seepage box 60 is located above the humidifying cotton 40, and the fan blade 70 is located above the water seepage box 60.

[0057] Combined with reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 An installation box 21 is provided inside the water tank 20, a water inlet 211 is provided at the bottom of the installation box 21, a pump body (not shown in the figure) and a heater 30 are provided inside the installation box 21. In the present embodiment, the heater 30 is configured as a PTC heater, the outlet of the pump body is connected to the inlet of the heater 30, and the outlet of the heater 30 is connected to the water supply pipeline. The pump body can pump the water at the bottom of the installation box 21 to the heater 30, and at this time, the heater 30 needs to be sealed to ensure that the heater 30 can operate normally.

[0058] Combined with reference Figures 2 to 5 The humidifying cotton 40 and the mounting frame 50 are both arranged in a columnar shape, and the humidifying cotton 40 and the mounting frame 50 are both extended in the vertical direction, the humidifying cotton 40 is sleeved on the outside of the mounting frame 50, and the water seepage box 60 is arranged around the outside of the mounting frame 50. The bottom of the water seepage box 60 is provided with a water inlet hole 61 and a plurality of water seepage holes 62, and the bottom of the mounting frame 50 is provided with an opening 51, and the water supply pipeline can pass through the opening 51 and communicate with the water inlet hole 61 on the water seepage box 60.

[0059] In this embodiment, when the humidifying device is in sterilization operation, the fan blades 70 start to rotate, and air enters the housing 10 from the air inlet 11, and then the air is humidified through the humidifying cotton 40, and then the humidified air enters the room through the air outlet 12. At the same time, the pump body first pumps the water in the water tank 20 to the heater 30, and the water flows through the water supply pipeline and the water inlet hole 61 after being heated by the heater 30, and then enters the water seepage box 60, and then the hot water penetrates into the humidifying cotton 40 through the multiple water seepage holes 62, and the humidifying cotton 40 is fully moistened under the action of gravity, and the excess water falls back into the water tank 20, and is repeatedly heated in the reciprocating cycle of the water flow, thereby achieving comprehensive sterilization of the entire waterway and the humidifying cotton 40, and under the premise of ensuring the sterilization effect, no irritating odor and harmful substances are generated, which is conducive to improving the user experience, and because the evaporation of water requires heat, when humidified by hot water during the sterilization process, it is conducive to increasing the humidification amount of the humidifying device.

[0060] It should be explained that the above embodiment only provides a possible specific structure of the humidifying device, but its setting is not necessary. Those skilled in the art can change the specific setting of the humidifying device as needed, as long as it does not hinder the realization of the normal functions of the present application. In an alternative embodiment, the housing 10 can be set to have air intake on one side and air outlet on the other side. In another alternative embodiment, those skilled in the art can change the humidification method of the humidifying cotton, for example, by using a structure such as a nozzle to achieve spraying of the humidifying cotton 40.

[0001] See below Figure 6 The heating control method of the present application is described. Figure 6 This is a flow chart of the main steps of the sterilization control method of an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 6 As shown, in order to solve the problem of poor sterilization effect and poor user experience of the existing humidifier, the sterilization control method in the embodiment of the present application mainly includes the following steps:

[0061] S601, obtaining the current water level of the water tank;

[0062] S602, determining the sterilization time required for the humidification device based on the current water level;

[0063] S603, based on the sterilization time, control the operation of the heater.

[0064] In this embodiment, the sterilization time required for the current water level can be determined by testing. For example, a certain amount of clean water is injected into the water tank, and then the humidification device and the heater are controlled to operate. During the operation of the heater, the bacteria content in the water tank is sampled and tested at regular intervals. When the bacteria content is lower than the threshold, sterilization is considered to be completed, and the time from the time when the heater is turned on during the test to the time when the bacteria content is lower than the threshold is used as the sterilization time required for the humidification device, and the initial water level in the water tank during the test is used as the current water level of the water tank. In addition, when the user uses the humidification device, the humidification device can intelligently determine whether sterilization is currently required and turn on the heater, or turn on the heater when the user manually turns on the sterilization mode, and determine the sterilization time by the current water level, and turn off the heater after the heater is turned on for the sterilization time.

[0065] When adopting the above technical solution, high-temperature sterilization can be achieved when water flows through the humidifying cotton, and the excess water on the humidifying cotton will flow back to the water tank. When the required sterilization time is determined by the current water level in the water tank, it can be ensured that during the sterilization process, all water bodies are involved in the high-temperature circulation. At this time, the high-temperature water flow can achieve effective sterilization of the entire water channel and the humidifying cotton as a whole, and while ensuring the sterilization effect, no other odors and harmful substances are generated.

[0066] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the sterilization control method further includes:

[0067] During the operation of the humidifying device, the heater is controlled to operate intermittently.

[0068] In this embodiment, after the heater runs for a long period of time for sterilization, the bacterial content in the entire water channel and the humidification cotton is low. At this time, the heater can be turned off. After the humidification device continues to run for a certain period of time, the bacteria multiply and cause the bacterial content in the water body to increase. At this time, the heater can be turned on again for sterilization, thereby ensuring the sterilization effect while avoiding energy waste.

[0069] It should be explained that the above-mentioned intelligent control method of intermittent operation of the heater is not necessary. In an alternative implementation, when the user turns on the sterilization mode, the heater turns on and automatically turns off after running the sterilization time, and then sterilizes again when the user turns on the sterilization mode next time. At this time, the waiting time of the heater is not a fixed value.

[0070] See below Figure 7 , Figure 7 The present invention is a flowchart of the steps of controlling the intermittent operation of a heater according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0071] like Figure 7As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the humidifying device is provided with a plurality of gears, and the gears are used to characterize the rotation speed of the fan blades. The intermittent operation of the heater can be controlled by the following steps:

[0072] S701, obtaining gear information;

[0073] S702, determining the waiting time of the heater based on the gear information;

[0074] S703, based on the sterilization time and the waiting time, control the heater to operate intermittently.

[0075] Further, in this embodiment, the gear information includes historical gears, and step S702 "determining the waiting time of the heater based on the gear information" further includes:

[0076] Based on the historical gear position, determine the waiting time of the heater;

[0077] The historical gear is used to represent the gear of the heater during its historical operation.

[0078] It should be explained that wet humidifying cotton will breed bacteria when placed naturally. When the humidifying device is running, while the air passes through the humidifying cotton to take away moisture, the bacteria in the air will also remain on the humidifying cotton. The faster the air flow rate, the faster the bacteria on the humidifying cotton will multiply. The waiting time of the heater can be determined through experiments. For example, a certain amount of tap water or sterile water is added to the water tank. Under normal circumstances, there are bacteria in the tap water, but the bacterial content is usually lower than the threshold. The humidifying device is controlled to start and start running at a certain gear, and the bacterial content in the water tank is sampled and tested at regular intervals. When the bacterial content is higher than the threshold, it is determined that sterilization is required. At this time, the time between the time when the humidifying device is turned on and the time when the bacteria is higher than the threshold is used as the waiting time of the heater, and then the heater is controlled to run intermittently according to the sterilization time and the waiting time.

[0079] Further, in some embodiments, the historical gears include multiple ones, and the above-mentioned determination of the waiting time of the heater based on the historical gears further includes:

[0080] The waiting time of the heater is determined based on a highest gear position among a plurality of historical gear positions.

[0081] In this embodiment, during the operation of the heater, the user may manually switch the gear, or the humidifier may intelligently adjust the gear to maintain a constant indoor temperature. Since the faster the air flow rate, the faster the bacteria on the humidification cotton multiply, the maximum gear in the sterilization process can be regarded as a historical gear. In other words, the waiting time is considered based on the most unfavorable situation, so as to try to ensure that the humidifier is continuously in a state of low bacteria content.

[0082] It should be explained that the above method of determining the waiting time is not mandatory. In an alternative embodiment, the waiting time can also be set to a fixed value. In another alternative embodiment, when a gear switch occurs during the sterilization process, the waiting time can be determined according to the gear with a longer proportion, or according to the last gear or the first gear.

[0083] In some embodiments, the sterilization control method further comprises:

[0084] When the water level in the water tank is lower than the preset water level threshold, the heater is controlled to operate.

[0085] In this embodiment, since the humidifier needs to automatically shut down when the water level is lower than a certain value to ensure safe operation, and the water in the water tank cannot be completely exhausted before the automatic shutdown, it is easy to cause bacterial proliferation after long-term storage. Therefore, when sterilizing before the humidifier automatically shuts down, it can be ensured that the humidifier is shut down when the bacteria content is extremely low, so as to minimize the impact of bacterial proliferation on the subsequent use of the humidifier. However, this setting is not necessary. In an alternative embodiment, for some humidifiers that can realize automatic water addition, the setting for controlling the operation of the heater at low water level can be omitted. In another alternative embodiment, when the humidifier is set to shut down at a certain time, sterilization can be performed within a period of time before the shutdown time.

[0086] In some embodiments, the sterilization control method further comprises:

[0087] Control the heater to run when the humidifier is turned on, and get the current water level of the water tank;

[0088] Based on the current water level, determine the sterilization time required for the humidification device;

[0089] After the heater runs for the sterilization time, the heater is controlled to stop running.

[0090] In this embodiment, the heater can be turned on immediately when the humidifier is turned on, and the heater can be turned off after the sterilization time. At this time, on the one hand, the bacteria generated when the humidifier is in the shutdown state can be killed, and on the other hand, the water injected into the humidifier can be sterilized, so as to try to ensure that the humidifier maintains a low bacterial content during the entire operation process. However, this setting is not necessary. For example, when sterilization is only performed when the user turns on the sterilization mode, the setting of sterilization at startup can be omitted. However, considering the user experience, sterilization immediately at startup is a better choice.

[0091] See below Figure 8 , Figure 8 The present invention is a flowchart of the steps of controlling the intermittent operation of a heater according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0092] like Figure 8 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the sterilization control method includes the following steps:

[0093] S801, obtain the current water level of the water tank, and then execute S802;

[0094] S802, based on the current water level, determine the sterilization time required for the humidification device, and then execute S803;

[0095] S803, controlling the sterilization time of the heater, and then executing S804;

[0096] S804, obtaining historical gear positions;

[0097] S805, determining the waiting time of the heater based on the historical gear position;

[0098] S806, controlling the heater off waiting time, and then returning to execute S801.

[0099] In this embodiment, when the humidifier is sterilizing, the sterilization time is first determined based on the current water level. After the heater runs for the sterilization time, it indicates that the sterilization is completed. At this time, the heater is turned off, and the waiting time is determined based on the historical gear position of the humidifier during the sterilization process. After the heater is turned off for the waiting time, it indicates that the humidifier needs to be sterilized again. At this time, the sterilization time continues to be determined based on the current water level.

[0100] It should be explained that the order of the above steps is not fixed, and those skilled in the art can change the order of the steps or delete some steps as needed, as long as it does not affect the purpose of this application. In an alternative implementation, the gear position can be recorded during the operation of the heater, and if there is a gear change, the highest gear position is recorded as the historical gear position.

[0101] It is understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention implements all or part of the processes in the method of the above embodiment, and can also be completed by instructing the relevant hardware through a computer program, and the above computer program can be stored in a computer-readable storage medium, and when the computer program is executed by the processor, the steps of each of the above method embodiments can be implemented.
