Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a method, a device and related components for coordinated operation of household appliances based on sound. Background Art

[0002] As the pace of modern life accelerates, people's requirements for the comfort of their living environment are increasing. As an important part of improving the quality of life, household appliances play an indispensable role in people's daily lives. However, household appliances often make certain noises during operation, which affects the user's life experience to a certain extent. Especially when these devices work at night, if they suddenly make abnormal sounds or the noise level is too high, it will seriously affect the user's sleep quality. Good sleep is essential for maintaining human health, and continuous or sudden noise interference will not only interrupt the sleep cycle, leading to shallow sleep or even insomnia, but may also cause a series of health problems related to lack of sleep, such as cardiovascular disease, decreased immune system function, and increased mental stress.

[0003] At present, during the operation of household appliances, the decibel value of their operating noise may gradually change due to factors such as wear of mechanical parts, consumption of lubricating oil and changes in ambient temperature. Traditional household appliance control systems often adjust based on preset noise decibel values ​​and are unable to detect and adapt to such decibel value changes caused by long-term operation of the equipment in real time. This results in the program being unable to make timely adjustments when the actual noise decibel value of the household appliance exceeds the preset range, thereby failing to effectively reduce the noise interference with the user's sleep. Summary of the invention

[0027] See also Figure 1 This embodiment provides a method for coordinating operation of home appliances based on sound, including:

[0028] S101: collecting decibel values ​​of each device through a sound collection module and sending the decibel values ​​of each device to a logic processing module through a communication module;

[0029] Among them, each device is equipped with a sound collection module, which can be mobile or built-in. When the device is not built-in, a mobile sound collection module can be used to pick up sounds movably; the sound collection module can collect sounds and analyze the decibel value of the collected sounds; in addition, the sound collection module sets special sound trigger strategies. For example, when the fan hits other objects during the rotation process, affecting the rotation of the fan, a clicking sound will be made.

[0030] In this embodiment, each device is provided with a communication module, which may be a wifi module or a bluetooth module. If a direct connection with a server is required, it must be a wifi module. Direct communication between devices can be via bluetooth to ensure that communication and linkage can be maintained even when the devices cannot be connected to the Internet, so as to meet the collaboration between devices.

[0031] In this embodiment, the logic processing module can be independent of the device, or there can be a unified logic processing module. The unified logic processing module needs to process the data of all devices. The logic processing module mainly performs the following contents:

[0032] (1) Establishing a connection with the server module based on the sound collected by the sound collection module;

[0033] (2) Compare the decibel value collected by the sound collection module with the corresponding threshold;

[0034] (3) When an abnormality is detected in the air conditioner or household appliance, the abnormality detection and verification device can be activated. According to the inspection results, the preset control logic is called. For example, when the fan rotor is blocked and makes an abnormal sound, the logic processing module will adjust the rotor angle through the control module. For example, if the original rotation angle is 120 degrees and it is blocked at 90 degrees, the logic processing module will adjust the rotation range angle from 120 to 85 degrees, and so on.

[0035] (4) When the air volume of the air conditioner increases, the decibel value of the sound exceeds the threshold. At this time, the logic processing module can reduce the sound by adjusting the temperature and lowering the wind speed through the control module.

[0036] (5) According to the device threshold and the corresponding device relationship, adjust the air volume or turn the device on and off appropriately. For example, if the fan noise is loud but the air conditioner sound is normal, you can turn off the fan and adjust the air conditioner wind speed.

[0037] In this embodiment, each device includes: an air conditioner and a fan, wherein at least one of each of the air conditioner and the fan is provided.

[0038] Choose a suitable location indoors to install at least one air conditioner, ensuring that it can effectively cover the entire room or designated area. Then choose an air conditioner with intelligent control function, support Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection, and be able to access the smart home system to achieve remote control and intelligent scheduling. At the same time, according to factors such as room size, occupancy density, and outside temperature, reasonably set the air conditioner's cooling / heating capacity and temperature range.

[0039] Set up at least one fan in different locations in the room to ensure even air circulation and avoid local overheating or overcooling. Then choose a fan with multiple wind speeds, oscillation function and intelligent control, which also supports Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection and can be integrated into the smart home system. And optimize the position and angle of the fan according to the room layout and personnel activity area to maximize its cooling effect.

[0040] S102: acquiring the decibel threshold of each device through the server module and sending the decibel threshold of each device to the logic processing module through the communication module;

[0041] The server module stores the information of each device, including the decibel threshold corresponding to the wind speed level of each device, and records the threshold changes of each device. For example, in June 2024, the wind speed threshold of level 3 is 40dB, and in August 2024, the wind speed threshold of level 3 is 41dB, as shown in Table 1:

[0042] equipment Windshield Threshold Update time Air Conditioner A Low wind speed 38dB 2024.6.24 Air Conditioner A Medium and low wind speed 39dB 2024.6.24 … … … … Home Appliances 1 1st gear 37dB 2024.6.28 Home Appliances 1 3rd gear 40dB 2024.6.28 Home Appliances 1 3rd gear 41dB 2024.8.28

[0043] In this embodiment, due to the aging or dirtiness of the device during operation, the sound collected by the device may be different from the threshold value stored in the server. Therefore, the following steps are also included:

[0044] The decibel threshold of each device in the server module is updated according to a predetermined period. For example, the decibel threshold of each device in the server module can be updated according to an update period of once every six months.

[0045] Regularly updating the decibel thresholds ensures that the data stored in the server module is up to date and reflects the current status of the equipment. This helps avoid making decisions based on outdated data, thereby improving the accuracy and effectiveness of decisions. By regularly updating the decibel thresholds, changes in equipment performance or potential signs of failure can be discovered in a timely manner. This helps take preventive measures before problems occur and reduce the impact of equipment failures on production or operations.

[0046] In some embodiments, the service life of the device is divided into different stages according to its expected service life. Specifically, according to the expected service life of the device, its service life is divided into an initial use period, a middle use period, and a final use period; when the device is in the initial use period, the decibel threshold of each device in the server module is updated according to a first predetermined period; when the device is in the middle use period, the decibel threshold of each device in the server module is updated according to a second predetermined period; when the device is in the final use period, the decibel threshold of each device in the server module is updated according to a third predetermined period; wherein the first predetermined period is greater than the second predetermined period and greater than the third predetermined period.

[0047] In the early stages of equipment use, the equipment is usually relatively new and has stable performance, so a longer update cycle (first scheduled period) can reduce unnecessary update operations, thereby saving manpower and computing resources. As the equipment enters the middle and late stages of use, gradually shortening the update cycle (second and third scheduled periods) can more accurately monitor the equipment status and ensure that problems are discovered in a timely manner. At the same time, as the equipment is used for a longer time, its performance may gradually decline and the failure rate will increase accordingly. By setting different update frequencies at different stages, the equipment status can be more accurately predicted and monitored, so that preventive measures can be taken before a failure occurs, reducing downtime and maintenance costs caused by equipment failure.

[0048] S103: Determine, by the logic processing module, whether the decibel value of each device exceeds the corresponding decibel threshold;

[0049] If it is detected that the decibel value of a device exceeds the corresponding decibel threshold, step S104 is executed; if it is not detected that the decibel value of any device exceeds the corresponding decibel threshold, step S105 is executed.

[0050] In some embodiments, a timer task is set in the logic processing module to periodically call the update_thresholds method to obtain the latest decibel threshold.

[0051] By setting a scheduled task, the decibel threshold update can be completed automatically without manual intervention. This not only improves work efficiency, but also reduces potential problems caused by human negligence or forgetfulness. In addition, regularly calling the update_thresholds method can ensure that the decibel threshold data stored in the server module is up to date and reflects the current status of the device. This helps to provide accurate data support when needed and provides a strong basis for decision-making.

[0052] S104: When it is detected that the decibel value of a device exceeds the corresponding decibel threshold, the decibel value of the device is reduced through the control module and other devices are coordinated to intervene through the control module to maintain environmental comfort.

[0053] Among them, the control module is mainly used to control the equipment temperature, set the equipment speed, set the equipment windshield, control the equipment power on and off, and set the equipment rotation angle.

[0054] In some embodiments, when it is detected that the decibel value of a device exceeds a corresponding threshold, reducing the decibel value of the device through the control module and coordinating other devices to intervene through the control module include:

[0055] When it is detected that the decibel value of the air conditioner exceeds the corresponding threshold, the wind speed and temperature of the air conditioner are reduced through the control module.

[0056] For example, the current decibel value of the air conditioner is 40dB, and the current threshold of the air conditioner is 38dB. When it is detected that the decibel value of the air conditioner exceeds the corresponding threshold, the wind speed of the air conditioner is reduced through the control module to reduce the environmental noise. At the same time, in order to maintain the environmental comfort, the temperature needs to be lowered.

[0057] Once the decibel level of a device is detected to exceed the threshold, the system can immediately respond through the control module and take measures to reduce the decibel level. This immediate response helps to quickly resolve the problem and prevent noise pollution from causing discomfort to employees, customers or residents.

[0058] In some embodiments, when it is detected that the decibel value of a device exceeds a corresponding threshold, reducing the decibel value of the device through the control module and coordinating other devices to intervene through the control module include:

[0059] When it is detected that the decibel value of the fan exceeds the corresponding threshold, the frequency of the fan is obtained through the sound collection module;

[0060] The logic processing module determines whether the fan makes abnormal noise according to the frequency of the fan;

[0061] If the fan makes an abnormal sound, the control module turns off the fan, lowers the temperature of the air conditioner and / or increases the wind speed of the air conditioner;

[0062] If the fan does not make abnormal noise, lower the fan gear through the control module.

[0063] Once the fan is detected to be making abnormal noise, the system can immediately shut down the fan through the control module to prevent the fault from further deteriorating. At the same time, by adjusting the temperature and / or wind speed of the air conditioner, the system can maintain the comfort of the indoor environment and prevent users from feeling uncomfortable due to fan failure. For fans that are not making abnormal noise, the system reduces the noise by lowering its gear. This operation not only reduces noise pollution, but also ensures the normal operation of the equipment, achieving a balance between performance and noise. In addition, abnormal fan noise may be a precursor to equipment failure. By shutting down the abnormal noise fan in time, the system can prevent further damage to the equipment, extend the service life of the equipment, and reduce downtime and maintenance costs caused by equipment failure.

[0064] S105: If it is not detected that the decibel value of any device exceeds the corresponding decibel threshold, no operation is performed.

[0065] This embodiment monitors the decibel value of each device in real time. When it is detected that the noise of a device exceeds the preset threshold, the system will automatically reduce the volume of the device and coordinate other devices to make corresponding adjustments. This method can not only effectively control the environmental noise level, but also optimize the user experience while ensuring comfort.

[0066] In some embodiments, the decibel threshold of each device is obtained through the server module and the decibel threshold of each device is sent to the logic processing module through the communication module, including: obtaining the gear position set for each device; according to the gear position set for each device, the decibel threshold of each device corresponding to the gear position is obtained through the server module, and the decibel threshold of each device is sent to the logic processing module through the communication module;

[0067] Determining whether the decibel value of each device exceeds the corresponding decibel threshold through the logic processing module includes: determining whether the decibel value of each device exceeds the decibel threshold of the corresponding gear through the logic processing module;

[0068] When it is detected that the decibel value of a device exceeds the corresponding decibel threshold, the decibel value of the device is reduced through the control module and other devices are coordinated to intervene through the control module to maintain the comfort of the environment, including: when it is detected that the decibel value of a device exceeds the decibel threshold of the corresponding gear, the operating parameters of the device are adjusted through the control module to reduce the decibel value of the device.

[0069] The decibel thresholds of each device at different gears are obtained through the server module, which ensures the accuracy of decibel management. Different devices generate different noise levels when running at different gears. Therefore, obtaining these specific decibel thresholds is the basis for achieving accurate management. When the decibel value of a device is detected to exceed the decibel threshold of the corresponding gear, the control module can automatically adjust the operating parameters of the device to reduce its decibel value. This automatic adjustment mechanism avoids the tediousness of manual intervention and improves efficiency.

[0070] In some embodiments, it also includes:

[0071] Get the user's sensitivity to sound;

[0072] If the user is sensitive to sound, each device is regulated with priority given to reducing the sound;

[0073] If the user's sensitivity to sound is average, each device will be regulated with reducing energy consumption as a priority.

[0074] Specifically, users set their own sound sensitivity (for example, "sensitive" or "normal") through an application or interface. These settings are stored in a database and associated with the user account. The sound collection module continuously monitors the sounds in the environment and calculates the decibel values ​​of each device. The logic processing module receives this data and compares it with the preset threshold. The logic processing module obtains the sound sensitivity of the current user from the database. For sensitive users, if the decibel value of a device is detected to exceed the threshold, the logic processing module first tries to reduce the sound of the device. If it is an abnormal sound from the fan, turn off the fan and adjust the air conditioning temperature and wind speed. If it is not an abnormal sound, lower the fan gear. For ordinary users, if the decibel value of a device is detected to exceed the threshold, the logic processing module gives priority to energy-saving measures. For example, if the fan sound is slightly louder but still within an acceptable range, you can choose not to lower the fan gear, but adjust other devices to keep the overall energy consumption to a minimum.

[0075] For example, device 1 is a fan. When it runs at the 1st wind speed, the decibel value of the sound is 15, which is equivalent to the low wind speed of the air conditioner in the space. When the air conditioner runs at the low wind speed, the noise is 18, and the noise is 16 at the silent wind speed. If the user is sensitive to sound, when the same effect can be achieved, turn on the 1st wind speed of the fan and set the air conditioner to the silent wind speed. If the user is sensitive to sound at a normal level, turn off the fan and set the air conditioner to the low wind speed to save energy.

[0076] By understanding the user's sensitivity to sound, the system can provide personalized control solutions. This customized service can better meet the actual needs of users and improve their satisfaction and comfort. According to the user's sensitivity, the system can intelligently select the control strategy. For users who are sensitive to sound, the system takes reducing sound as the primary goal to ensure the quietness of the indoor environment; while for users with low sound sensitivity, the system focuses more on reducing energy consumption and achieving effective use of energy.

[0077] In some embodiments, when the decibel value is detected to exceed the threshold, the first level warning is triggered, and only logs and preliminary diagnosis (such as obtaining fan frequency) are performed. If the decibel value continues to rise or the abnormal sound is confirmed, the second level warning is triggered and more direct intervention measures are taken (such as lowering the fan gear or turning off the fan). If the problem is still not solved, the third level warning is triggered, which may involve system shutdown or notification of maintenance personnel.

[0078] Through real-time monitoring and dynamic adjustment, the environment is always ensured to be within the comfortable range set by the user. By optimizing the equipment operation strategy, unnecessary energy consumption is reduced to achieve energy conservation and emission reduction. Through the multi-level early warning mechanism, potential faults can be discovered and handled in time to avoid serious problems.

[0079] In some embodiments, noise sensors are installed at key locations (such as central areas indoors, near equipment, etc.) to monitor noise levels in real time. Reasonable noise thresholds are set for different time periods or different scenarios based on user needs and comfort standards. When the noise sensor detects that the decibel value exceeds the set threshold, the early warning mechanism is triggered and an alarm message is sent to the central control system. If the fan makes an abnormal sound, turn off the fan immediately, start the backup fan (if any) or adjust the operation of other equipment to maintain indoor comfort. If the fan does not make an abnormal sound but the noise exceeds the standard, try to reduce the speed of the fan or adjust its operating mode (such as from high speed to low speed, from continuous operation to intermittent operation).

[0080] If the air conditioner is running too loudly, adjust the fan speed to reduce its noise output.

[0081] If the humidifier is running too loudly, you can temporarily turn it off or reduce its operating intensity.

[0082] If the air purifier makes too loud noise, you can adjust the working mode of the air purifier, such as lowering the wind speed or switching to silent mode.

[0083] In some embodiments, priority ranking is set: the priority of the noise reduction strategy is set according to the source and impact of the device noise.

[0084] Specifically, the first priority is fans and air conditioners. Since these two types of equipment are noisy and have a significant impact on the indoor environment, they should be the primary targets of noise reduction strategies. When it is detected that their noise exceeds the standard, measures should be taken immediately to reduce the noise, such as adjusting the fan speed, shutting down or replacing the fan with abnormal noise, adjusting the air conditioner wind speed, etc.

[0085] Second priority: air purifiers. Although air purifiers are relatively quiet, their importance in improving indoor air quality cannot be ignored. When it is detected that the noise exceeds the standard, measures should also be taken to reduce the noise, such as adjusting the working mode of the air purifier, reducing its operating power, etc.

[0086] Third priority: humidifiers. Humidifiers usually produce less noise and have a relatively limited impact on the indoor environment. However, if they are operated for a long time and the noise exceeds the standard, it will still have a certain impact on the user's comfort. Therefore, humidifiers should be considered as a secondary target in the noise reduction strategy. When it is detected that its noise exceeds the standard, you can try to adjust its working mode or operating power to reduce the noise.

[0087] By identifying the noise sources and impact levels of different devices and setting the priority of noise reduction strategies accordingly, we can ensure that the noise issues that have the greatest impact on user comfort are resolved first. For example, fans and air conditioners are noisy devices, and improving their noise reduction effects will directly improve the overall user experience. This targeted noise reduction strategy makes noise reduction work more efficient and more effective.

[0088] It should be noted that although the priority is set, it does not mean that the noise reduction strategy is fixed. In actual applications, the noise reduction strategy can be flexibly adjusted based on factors such as user feedback, environmental changes, and device performance. For example, in a specific time period or under a specific environment, it may be necessary to increase the noise reduction priority of a humidifier; in other cases, more attention may be paid to the noise reduction effect of fans and air conditioners. This flexibility and adjustability makes the noise reduction strategy more adaptable to different scenarios and needs.

[0089] In some embodiments, at night or in an environment that needs to be kept extremely quiet, the noise reduction priority of a humidifier and an air purifier may need to be increased; whereas during high temperature periods in summer, the noise reduction priority of fans and air conditioners may be more important.

[0090] In certain environments, such as at night or in environments that require a high level of quietness, users are often more sensitive to noise. Raising the noise reduction priority of humidifiers and air purifiers can significantly reduce the noise generated by these devices during operation, thereby providing a quieter and more comfortable indoor environment and optimizing the user experience. Similarly, during the hot summer months, users rely more on fans and air conditioners, and the operating noise of these devices may also cause greater interference to users. Therefore, raising the noise reduction priority of fans and air conditioners can effectively reduce noise and improve user comfort in high temperature environments.
