[0031] Figure 1 A flow chart of a control method for a washing machine provided in one embodiment of the present application is shown. For ease of explanation, only the portion related to this embodiment is shown, which is described in detail as follows:
[0032] A method for controlling a washing machine may include the following steps:
[0033] In step S102, after the rinsing stage of the washing device is completed, the washing device is controlled to spray clean the glass bowl.
[0034] After the washing equipment is controlled to complete the rinsing stage, in the drainage stage, the spray valve of the glass bowl in the washing equipment is controlled to open to spray and clean the glass bowl.
[0035] In this embodiment, after the washing machine is controlled to complete the rinsing phase, the washing machine is controlled to enter the drainage phase for drainage. During the drainage phase, the spraying device in the washing machine can be controlled to spray the glass bowl. The spray valve in the spraying device can be controlled to open to spray the glass bowl.
[0036] In step S104, a first cleanliness parameter after the spray cleaning is determined, where the first cleanliness parameter is a parameter used to represent the cleanliness of the glass bowl.
[0037] In this embodiment, after the glass bowl is spray cleaned, a first cleanliness parameter may be determined, wherein the first cleanliness parameter represents the cleanliness of the glass bowl after the spray cleaning and before the dehydration stage.
[0038] In step S106 , during the dehydration stage or after the dehydration stage, a second cleanliness parameter is obtained, where the second cleanliness parameter is a parameter used to represent the cleanliness of the glass bowl.
[0039] In this embodiment, the washing machine is controlled to enter the dehydration stage. During the dehydration stage, the influence of the detergent may cause the cleanliness of the glass bowl to change. For example, the foam in the detergent may adhere to the glass bowl. Therefore, during the dehydration process or after the dehydration stage, the cleanliness of the glass bowl needs to be retested.
[0040] In step S108, it is determined whether the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements based on the second cleaning parameter and the first cleaning parameter.
[0041] In this embodiment, whether the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements can be determined based on the second cleaning parameter and the first cleaning parameter.
[0042] Specifically, if the absolute value of the difference between the second cleaning parameter and the above-mentioned first cleaning parameter is greater than or equal to a predetermined difference threshold, it is determined that the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the requirements. In this case, it is necessary to control the washing equipment to return to the washing stage for washing, and repeat the above steps until the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements.
[0043] If the above-mentioned difference threshold is less than the difference threshold, it is determined that the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements. In this case, the washing machine can be controlled to continue dehydration, or the whole washing process is terminated.
[0044] The above-mentioned technical solution of the present application sprays the glass bowl for cleaning before the dehydration stage, thus avoiding the situation in the related art where the glass bowl is sprayed after the dehydration stage, which easily wets the dehydrated clothes. In addition, after the spraying of the glass bowl is completed, the glass bowl is continuously monitored during the dehydration stage to determine the changes in the parameters related to the cleanliness of the glass bowl, and whether the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements is determined based on the above-mentioned second cleaning parameter and the above-mentioned first cleaning parameter. By setting the cleanliness parameter of the glass bowl to quantitatively indicate the cleanliness of the glass bowl, the manual subjective determination of whether the glass bowl is clean in the related art is avoided. The above-mentioned cleanliness parameter greatly improves the accuracy of judging whether the glass bowl is clean. It lays a good foundation for the subsequent related control steps.
[0045] In some embodiments, the parameter representing the cleanliness of the glass bowl is obtained in the following manner:
[0046] One method is to obtain a first image of the glass bowl through a camera, and obtain the parameters representing the cleanliness of the glass bowl by performing feature extraction on the first image.
[0047] In this embodiment, after the spray cleaning of the glass bowl is completed, the lamp can be controlled to illuminate, and the illumination can be used to activate a camera to capture the glass bowl area, thereby obtaining a first image of the glass bowl. Feature extraction is performed on the first image to obtain the parameters representing the cleanliness of the glass bowl.
[0048] In this embodiment, the total number of pixels in the first image is determined, the number of pixels corresponding to each grayscale level is determined, and the relative frequency of each grayscale level is determined based on the total number of pixels and the number of pixels corresponding to each grayscale level. A grayscale histogram of the first image is generated, with grayscale level represented on the horizontal axis and frequency represented on the vertical axis.
[0049] An average grayscale value of the grayscale histogram of the first image is determined, and the average grayscale value is used as the average brightness of the first image.
[0050] A third image of the glass bowl during the dehydration process is determined, and the average brightness value of the third image is determined using the same method as above.
[0051] The average brightness value of the third image is compared with the average brightness value of the first image. If the difference between the average brightness values of the third image and the average brightness values of the first image is greater than a predetermined average brightness difference threshold, it is determined that the glass bowl has been contaminated during the dehydration process and its cleanliness has deteriorated. If the difference between the average brightness values of the third image and the average brightness values of the first image is less than or equal to the predetermined average brightness difference threshold, it is determined that the glass bowl has not been contaminated during the dehydration process and its cleanliness meets the requirements.
[0052] Another way is to obtain the brightness of the glass bowl through a light sensor receiver as the parameter representing the cleanliness of the glass bowl, and the light sensor receiver is used to receive the reflected light of the glass bowl from the reference light source.
[0053] In this embodiment, after the above-mentioned spray cleaning of the glass bowl is completed, the lamp can be controlled to start lighting, and a light source is provided to the above-mentioned glass bowl through lighting. The reflected light generated by the glass bowl will be received by the light sensing receiver, and the light rod receiver calculates the brightness of the glass bowl.
[0054] In some embodiments, before acquiring the first image of the glass bowl through a camera, the method may further include the following steps:
[0055] A second image of the glass bowl is obtained through the camera, and features are extracted from the second image to determine whether the ambient brightness meets the requirements.
[0056] In this embodiment, a grayscale histogram of the second image can be created, and the average grayscale value of the grayscale histogram of the second image can be determined. This average grayscale value can be used as a parameter representing the ambient brightness. If the average grayscale value of the second image is less than a predetermined grayscale value threshold, it is determined that the ambient brightness of the second image is insufficient and requires fill light processing. A light source for improving the ambient brightness can be activated to capture the first image of the glass bowl via the camera.
[0057] In this embodiment, a backup light source may be pre-set, and is used to start the backup light source in the case where the ambient brightness is found to be insufficient, so as to improve the ambient brightness.
[0058] In some embodiments, determining whether the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements based on the second cleaning parameter and the first cleaning parameter includes:
[0059] If the difference between the second cleaning parameter and the first cleaning parameter is within a set range, the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirement; otherwise, the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the requirement.
[0060] In this embodiment, the absolute value of the difference between the second cleaning parameter and the first cleaning parameter can be determined to determine whether the absolute value of the difference is less than a cleaning parameter difference threshold. If the absolute value is less than the cleaning parameter difference threshold, it is determined that the difference between the second cleaning parameter and the first cleaning parameter is within a set range. The cleaning parameter difference threshold can be flexibly set.
[0061] In some embodiments, the above method may further include the following steps:
[0062] In one embodiment, if the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the requirements, the rinsing stage is re-executed.
[0063] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the cleanliness of the above-mentioned glass bowl does not meet the requirements, it means that the washing solvent is relatively contaminated and has a relatively large impact on the pollution of the glass bowl. By controlling the washing equipment to return to the rinsing stage, the washing solvent can be cleaned and the foam, water stains and other contaminants in the washing solvent can be removed. In addition, the contaminants on the surface of the glass bowl can be removed, thereby improving the cleanliness of the glass bowl.
[0064] In another embodiment, if after the dehydration stage, it is determined that the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements, the washing is terminated.
[0065] In this embodiment, it is determined that the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements, which means that the glass bowl has been cleaned and the detergent is also in a clean state. No further cleaning work is required and the entire washing work can be ended.
[0066] In some embodiments, during the dehydration stage, the second cleanliness parameter is periodically acquired until it is determined that the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the requirement, or until the dehydration stage ends.
[0067] In this embodiment, during the dehydration phase, contaminants such as foam from the detergent may adhere to the glass bowl, affecting its cleanliness. Therefore, continuous testing of the glass bowl is necessary. In this embodiment, periodic testing of the glass bowl can be employed to determine a second cleanliness parameter. Based on this second cleanliness parameter, it is determined whether the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the required level. If the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the required level, the washing machine is controlled to return to the washing phase. If the cleanliness of the glass bowl is determined to meet the required level, this testing process can continue throughout the dehydration phase until the dehydration process is complete.
[0068] Second, see Appendix Figure 2 As shown, the present application proposes a control device 2 for a washing device, comprising:

[0077] In some embodiments, the judgment module 23 is configured to determine that if the difference between the second cleaning parameter and the first cleaning parameter is within a set range, the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirement; otherwise, the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the requirement.
[0078] In some embodiments, a second control module is further included, which is configured to re-execute the rinsing stage if the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the requirements; or, if it is determined that the cleanliness of the glass bowl meets the requirements after the dehydration stage, the washing is terminated.
[0079] In some embodiments, the parameter determination module 22 is configured to periodically obtain the second cleanliness parameter during the dehydration stage until it is determined that the cleanliness of the glass bowl does not meet the requirement, or until the dehydration stage ends.
