Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of household appliance control, and in particular to a control method, device, equipment and medium for a humidifier. Background Art

[0002] The cooling fan is an evaporative cooling humidifier. It works by pumping water from the lower water tank to the upper water distributor to wet the paper / cloth wet curtain downwards, and blowing air negatively through the guide wheel / fan blades to evaporate the moisture in the wet curtain, thereby achieving the effect of air outlet cooling. During the water pumping process, the cooling fan needs to use a water pump to transport the water in the water tank to the water distributor. When the water in the water tank is not enough to completely cover the water pump, air and water will enter the water pump through the suction pipe at the same time, which will not only produce strong noise, but also easily cause damage to the water pump, affecting the user experience. In addition, after the existing cooling fan reports a water shortage prompt, there is still excess residual water in the water tank. Over time, it will cause water pollution and cause the wet curtain to mold and stink. After the cooling fan blows out air, harmful mold will be released into the air, which will not only affect the user's health, but also lead to frequent respiratory diseases.

The embodiments of the present invention provide a control method, device, equipment and medium for a humidifier. The method is applied to the controller of a humidifier, and the humidifier is not limited to a cold fan and other evaporative humidifiers; specifically, the humidifier is composed of key components such as a fan, a water pump, a wet curtain, a water tank, and a water distributor. When the humidifier is working, its working mode is that the water pump pumps water from the water tank to the water distributor, and the guide groove in the water distributor guides the water to the wet curtain, thereby wetting the wet curtain, and then the water in the wet curtain is evaporated by the reverse air discharge of the fan, thereby achieving the effect of air outlet cooling.

[0024] Figure 1 Schematic diagram of a flow chart of a method for controlling a humidifier provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes steps S110-S130.

[0025] S110: If a start signal is detected, the fan and the water pump are controlled to operate according to preset operating parameters.

[0026] In this embodiment, if a start signal is detected, the humidifier is started to humidify the target environment; specifically, the fan and the water pump can be controlled to operate according to preset operating parameters to achieve a humidification effect, and the preset operating parameters include the fan initial output power and the water pump initial output power. The fan operation is controlled according to the fan initial output power, and the water pump operation is controlled according to the water pump initial output power; further, the fan is controlled to operate according to a fan operating gear corresponding to the fan initial output power, and the water pump is controlled to operate according to a water pump operating gear corresponding to the water pump initial output power; wherein, the fan initial output power and the water pump initial output power can be customized according to actual applications.

[0027] S120, after running for a preset time, compare the real-time output power of the water pump with the initial output power of the water pump in the preset operating parameters to obtain a comparison result.

[0028] In this embodiment, the real-time output power of the water pump is detected in real time after running for a preset time; the real-time output power and the initial output power of the water pump in the preset operating parameters are compared to obtain a comparison result to increase or decrease the evaporation amount of the wet curtain according to the comparison result.

[0029] S130: Control the operating power of the water pump and / or the fan according to the comparison result and a preset humidification control strategy.

[0030] In this embodiment, the operating power of the water pump and / or the fan is controlled according to the comparison result and a preset humidification control strategy.

[0031] If the comparison result is that the real-time output power is less than the initial output power of the water pump, it is determined that the water pump is in a mixed rotation state. At this time, the multiple water pump power values ​​periodically collected within the preset time period can be calculated according to the PQD control algorithm in the humidification control strategy to obtain the corresponding dynamic value, and the output power of the fan is controlled according to the dynamic value to accelerate the evaporation of the wet curtain, improve the humidification efficiency of the humidifier, reduce the residual water in the water tank, and prevent bacterial growth; the PQD control algorithm is Q=(T×K) / [(X1+X2) / t1+(X2+X3) / t2+...+(Xn+Xn+1) / tn]; wherein Q is the dynamic value, T is the preset time period, K is the initial output power of the fan, X1, X2...Xn are multiple water pump power values ​​periodically collected within the preset time period, and t1, t2,...tn are the collection times.

[0032] If the comparison result is that the real-time output power is equal to the initial output power of the water pump, it is determined that the water pump is in normal pumping and the water tank is filled with water. At this time, the water pump is controlled to continue working according to the initial output power of the water pump, and the process returns to the step of comparing the real-time output power of the water pump with the initial output power of the water pump in the preset operating parameters to obtain a comparison result.

[0033] If the comparison result is that the real-time output power is greater than the initial output power of the water pump, it is determined that the water pump is in an idling state and the water tank is short of water. At this time, in order to effectively reduce the noise generated when the water pump is working at a low water level, the water pump can be controlled to shut down after running for a first time. The embodiment of the present invention can detect the water tank state of the water tank according to the real-time output power and the initial output power of the water pump; when the water tank state is a critical low water level state, by controlling the operating power and operating time of the water pump, it is ensured that the water pump does not suck in air in the critical low water level state, thereby reducing the noise generated when the water pump is working at a low water level, improving the user experience and the service life of the humidifier.

[0034] In one embodiment, step S130 includes: if the comparison result is that the real-time output power is less than the initial output power of the water pump, then calculating multiple water pump power values ​​periodically collected within a preset time period according to the PQD control algorithm in the humidification control strategy to obtain a corresponding dynamic value; judging whether the dynamic value is greater than 1 to obtain a dynamic value judgment result; if the dynamic value judgment result is yes, controlling the fan to run at the highest gear for a third time and then controlling the water pump to turn off.

[0035] In this embodiment, if the comparison result is that the real-time output power is less than the initial output power of the water pump, it is determined that the water pump is in a mixed rotation state. At this time, the multiple water pump power values ​​X periodically collected within the preset time period T can be calculated according to the PQD control algorithm in the humidification control strategy to obtain the corresponding dynamic value Q. The output power of the fan is controlled according to the dynamic value Q to accelerate the evaporation of the wet curtain, improve the humidification efficiency of the humidifier, reduce the residual water in the water tank, and prevent bacterial growth;

[0036] The PQD control algorithm is Q = (T × K) / [(X1 + X2) / t1 + (X2 + X3) / t2 + ... + (Xn + Xn + 1) / tn];

[0037] Wherein, Q is a dynamic value, T is a preset time period, K is the initial output power of the fan, X1, X2, ..., Xn are multiple water pump power values ​​periodically collected within the preset time period, and t1, t2, ..., tn are collection times;

[0038] Determine whether the dynamic value is greater than 1 and obtain a dynamic value judgment result; if the dynamic value judgment result is yes, control the fan to run at the highest gear for a third time and then control the water pump to turn off; wherein, the third time can be set according to actual applications to ensure that no air is sucked into the water pump when the water level is critically low, thereby reducing the noise generated when the water pump works at a low water level, thereby improving user experience and the service life of the humidifier.

[0039] Furthermore, after controlling the water pump to shut down, the method further includes:

[0040] A corresponding water shortage alarm prompt is issued based on sound and light signals and / or text signals to remind the user to perform water addition operation as soon as possible.

[0041] In one embodiment, the determining whether the dynamic value is greater than 1, after obtaining the dynamic value determination result, further includes: if the dynamic value determination result is no, controlling the fan to run for a second time according to a preset fan power value and then controlling the water pump to shut down.

[0042] In this embodiment, if the dynamic value is not greater than 1, the water pump is controlled to be turned off after the fan is controlled to run for a second time according to the preset fan power value F; wherein, F=1 / 2f, F is the preset fan power value, and f is the power value corresponding to the highest gear of the fan. The second time can be set according to actual application to ensure that no air is sucked into the water pump in the critical low water level state, thereby reducing the noise generated when the water pump works at a low water level, thereby improving the user experience and the service life of the humidifier.

[0043] Furthermore, after controlling the water pump to shut down, the method further includes:

[0044] A corresponding water shortage alarm prompt is issued based on sound and light signals and / or text signals to remind the user to perform water addition operation as soon as possible.

[0045] In one embodiment, before calculating multiple water pump power values ​​periodically collected within a preset time period according to the PQD control algorithm in the humidification control strategy to obtain the corresponding dynamic value, it also includes: within the preset time period, regularly collecting the water pump power value of the water pump according to a preset collection interval.

[0046] In this embodiment, if the comparison result is that the real-time output power is less than the initial output power of the water pump, it is determined that the water pump is in a mixed rotation state. At this time, the multiple water pump power values ​​X periodically collected within the preset time period T can be calculated according to the PQD control algorithm in the humidification control strategy to obtain the corresponding dynamic value Q;

[0047] The PQD control algorithm is Q = (T × K) / [(X1 + X2) / t1 + (X2 + X3) / t2 + ... + (Xn + Xn + 1) / tn];

[0048] Among them, Q is a dynamic value, T is a preset time period, K is the initial output power of the fan, X1, X2...Xn are multiple water pump power values ​​obtained by periodic collection within the preset time period, t1, t2,..., tn are collection times, and the difference between two adjacent collection times is the preset collection interval time, that is, within the preset time period, the water pump power value of the water pump is regularly collected according to the preset collection interval time; for example, when the preset time period T is set to 10 seconds and the preset collection interval time is set to 3 seconds, t1 is 3 seconds, t2 is 6 seconds, X1 is the water pump power value collected at the 0th second within the preset time period T, and X2 is the water pump power value collected at time t1.

[0049] In one embodiment, step S130 includes: if the comparison result is that the real-time output power is equal to the initial output power of the water pump, controlling the operation of the water pump according to the initial output power of the water pump.

[0050] In this embodiment, if the comparison result is that the real-time output power is equal to the initial output power of the water pump, it is determined that the water pump is in normal pumping and the water tank is in a water state. At this time, the water pump is controlled to continue working according to the initial output power of the water pump, and the step of comparing the real-time output power of the water pump with the initial output power of the water pump in the preset operating parameters to obtain the comparison result is returned.

[0051] In one embodiment, step S130 includes: if the comparison result is that the real-time output power is greater than the initial output power of the water pump, controlling the water pump to run for a first time according to the initial output power of the water pump and then controlling the water pump to shut down.

[0052] In this embodiment, if the comparison result is that the real-time output power is greater than the initial output power of the water pump, it is determined that the water pump is in an idling state and the water tank is in a water-deficient state. At this time, in order to effectively reduce the noise generated when the water pump is working at a low water level, the water pump can be controlled to run for a first time according to the initial output power of the water pump and then controlled to shut down; wherein, the first time can be set according to actual applications to reduce residual water in the water tank, prevent bacterial growth, and improve user experience; the embodiment of the present invention can detect the water tank state of the water tank according to the real-time output power and the initial output power of the water pump; when the water tank state is a critical low water level state, by controlling the operating power and operating time of the water pump, it is ensured that no air is sucked into the water pump in the critical low water level state, thereby reducing the noise generated when the water pump is working at a low water level, thereby improving user experience and the service life of the humidifier.

[0053] Furthermore, after controlling the water pump to shut down, the method further includes:

[0054] A corresponding water shortage alarm prompt is issued based on sound and light signals and / or text signals to remind the user to perform water addition operation as soon as possible.

[0055] To sum up, the embodiment of the present invention can control the operating power of the water pump and / or the fan according to the comparison result and the preset humidification control strategy, which can effectively improve the pumping efficiency of the water pump, significantly reduce the residual water in the water tank, prevent bacterial growth, improve user experience, and effectively reduce the noise generated when the water pump works at a low water level.
