Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of energy-saving of refrigerator equipment, and in particular to an energy-saving control system of refrigerator equipment. Background Art
[0002] In commercial operations, refrigerator equipment such as beverage refrigerators in convenience stores are indispensable facilities. However, traditional refrigerator equipment has many energy waste problems during operation. For example, during the night business hours, if no one buys beverages, the refrigerator's lighting system still maintains full power operation, which not only consumes a lot of electricity, but also has a certain impact on the internal temperature of the refrigerator, increasing the burden on the refrigeration system. At the same time, the temperature control method of the refrigerator is relatively fixed, and it cannot be flexibly and intelligently adjusted according to actual needs, resulting in long-term high-load operation of the refrigeration system, further exacerbating energy waste. In addition, the lack of effective real-time monitoring and networking functions makes it impossible to grasp the operating status of the refrigerator in time, and it is difficult to achieve accurate automatic energy-saving control. Therefore, it is of great practical significance to develop a refrigerator equipment control system that can effectively save energy. Summary of the invention

[0052] Figure 1 This is a functional module diagram of an energy-saving control system for refrigerator equipment.
[0053] Figure 2 The present invention is a flowchart of the operation of the lighting module of an energy-saving control system for refrigerator equipment.
[0054] Figure 3 This is an operation flow chart of a refrigerator interconnection configuration optimization module of a refrigerator equipment energy-saving control system. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0055] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0056] Example 1
[0057] A convenience store has installed five beverage refrigerators, each with a capacity of 100 liters and an average power of 300 watts. These refrigerators are mainly used to store beverages and other goods, and are open from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. every day. During business hours, the refrigerators are used more frequently, especially between 2 p.m. and 8 p.m., which is the peak time for customers to buy beverages.
[0058] Lighting energy-saving module configuration: Install a light sensor on the front panel of the refrigerator to detect the external light intensity, install a human infrared sensor on the front panel of the refrigerator to detect whether a person is approaching, and install a switch sensor on the door of the refrigerator to detect whether the door is open. Set the light intensity threshold to 500lux. When the external light intensity exceeds 500lux, turn off the refrigerator lighting; when it is lower than 500lux, adjust the lighting mode to low-brightness mode; set the preset distance of human infrared detection to 1 meter. When the lighting system is in the off state and detects human movement signals within 1 meter, adjust the lighting mode to low-brightness mode. When the person leaves the refrigerator within 1 meter, the lighting will be turned off after 10 seconds; when the door is opened, adjust the lighting mode to high-brightness mode until the door is closed.
[0059] Refrigeration energy-saving module configuration:
[0060] A visual sensor is installed inside the refrigerator to monitor the storage volume in real time. A temperature sensor is installed at the inlet of the refrigerator to monitor the initial temperature of the items placed therein. The first preset volume value of the storage volume is set to 30 liters, and the second preset volume value is 80 liters. The refrigeration power is set to three gears: the first refrigeration power is 300 watts, the second refrigeration power is 250 watts, and the third refrigeration power is 200 watts. The first preset number of door opening times is set to 10 times / hour, the first preset frequency of taking things is set to 15 times / hour, the second preset number of times is 3 times / hour, and the second preset frequency is 5 times / hour. The internal clock sets the business hours from 8 am to 10 pm. The refrigeration power is automatically adjusted according to peak and trough periods during business hours; the third refrigeration power is maintained during non-business hours.
[0061] Monitoring and networking module configuration:
[0062] A camera is installed inside the refrigerator to collect real-time data inside the refrigerator, and the data inside the refrigerator is transmitted to the convenience store manager via the Internet. Reasonable placement rules are set: items must not be located within a second preset distance from the air outlet, the volume of items placed on each layer of the refrigerator must not exceed the preset volume upper limit of that layer, and the volume of items on the upper layer must not exceed the volume of items on the lower layer. In this embodiment, the second preset distance is 10 cm, and the preset volume upper limit is 80% of the volume of this layer.
[0063] Lighting energy saving module operation:
[0064] When the external light intensity is high, if the light sensor detects that the light intensity exceeds 500 lux, the refrigerator lighting is turned off. When a person approaches the refrigerator within 1 meter, the human infrared sensor detects the human movement signal and adjusts the lighting mode to low-brightness mode. If the person does not perform subsequent operations on the refrigerator, the lighting will be turned off after the person leaves the refrigerator within 1 meter. When the person opens the refrigerator door, the door switch sensor detects that the door is open and adjusts the lighting mode to high-brightness mode until the door is closed. If the external light intensity is less than 500 lux and the door is not opened, the refrigerator lighting system remains in low-brightness mode.
[0065] Refrigeration energy saving module operation:
[0066] During business hours, the visual sensor monitors the storage volume in the cabinet in real time. When the storage volume is less than 30 liters, the refrigeration system automatically adjusts to the third refrigeration power (200 watts); when the storage volume is greater than 80 liters, the refrigeration system adjusts to the first refrigeration power (300 watts). When an item is placed, the temperature sensor detects the initial temperature of the item placed; if the temperature of the item placed is higher than the current refrigerator temperature, the refrigeration power is increased by one gear; if the temperature of the item placed is lower than the current refrigerator temperature, the refrigeration power is reduced by one gear. The big data analysis unit collects and analyzes the usage data of the refrigerator to identify peak and valley periods. During peak hours (2 pm to 8 pm), the refrigeration power is increased by one gear; during valley hours (8 am to 10 am and 9 pm to 10 pm), the refrigeration power is reduced by one gear. The time control unit automatically adjusts the refrigeration power during business hours according to the internal clock setting; the third refrigeration power is maintained during non-business hours.
[0067] Monitoring and networking module operation:
[0068] A high-definition camera is installed inside the refrigerator to capture images and videos inside the refrigerator in real time. The camera captures photos or video clips inside the refrigerator every 5 minutes. At the same time, the temperature, humidity, lighting status and other data inside the refrigerator are collected through sensors. The collected images, videos and sensor data are transmitted to the cloud server through the Internet. The server stores and backs up the data and provides a data interface for users to access. Users can view the operating status of the refrigerator in real time through mobile applications, computer clients or web pages. The system determines whether the placement of items inside the refrigerator meets the preset placement rules based on the results of computer vision technology analysis, and issues reminders to the user accordingly. In this embodiment, the second preset distance is 10 cm, and the preset volume upper limit is 80% of the volume of this layer, so as to ensure the cooling effect and achieve energy saving. The built-in clock module records the current time in real time to determine whether it is business hours. The business hours are from 8 am to 10 pm, and the non-business hours are from 10 pm to 8 am the next day. In this embodiment, during business hours, if it is detected that an object is 5 cm away from the air outlet, which is less than the second preset distance, the system will send a prompt message to the user through a fixed display screen or a mobile phone application to remind the user to adjust the placement of the items. An example of the prompt message content is: "It is detected that an item on a layer of the refrigerator is blocking the air outlet. Please adjust it in time to ensure the refrigeration effect and energy-saving operation". When the second preset time is 30 minutes away from non-business hours, the system will remind the user to place the items on the lower layer in order to reduce the refrigeration power during non-business hours. An example of the prompt message content is: "There are 30 minutes left before non-business hours. Please place the items on the lower layer to optimize the energy-saving effect". After receiving the prompt message, the user can adjust the placement of the items according to the prompt. The system will monitor the adjusted placement status in real time to ensure that it complies with the preset placement rules. If the user does not respond to the prompt in time, the system will repeat the reminder until the user responds.
[0069] Example 2
[0070] Three beverage refrigerators are installed in a convenience store. The refrigerator interconnection configuration optimization module collects data from the three refrigerators, including the volume and average power of each refrigerator, and uses the system's preset dynamic programming algorithm to calculate the minimum power consumption and the refrigerator number that needs to be selected when the minimum power consumption is reached. Number of refrigerators: Count the total number of refrigerators in the convenience store, which is 3 in this embodiment; refrigerator volume: The maximum volume is 100 liters, 200 liters, and 300 liters respectively; the average power consumption is 50 watts, 100 watts, and 150 watts respectively; total volume of items: Count the total volume of items in all refrigerators, which is 400 liters. The current total volume is 400 liters, and the refrigerators are numbered from 1 to 3. At this time, the dp two-dimensional table is calculated as:
[0071]
[0072] Starting from dp[t][N], i.e. dp[3]
[400] , the goal is to find which refrigerators are selected so that the total volume is 400 liters and the power consumption is minimized, starting from i=3 and j=400,
[0073] 3rd Freezer:
[0074] Currently i=3, j=400,
[0075] Check dp[3]
[400] = 200,
[0076] Check dp[2]
[400] = ∞, indicating that the third freezer is selected.
[0077] Update j = j-s3 = 400-300 = 100, and add freezer number 3 to the selection list;
[0078] Second Freezer:
[0079] Currently i=2, j=100,
[0080] Check dp[2]
[100] = 50,
[0081] Check dp[1]
[100] = 50, which means the second freezer is not selected and j remains unchanged;
[0082] First Freezer:
[0083] Currently i=1,j=100,
[0084] Check dp[1]
[100] = 50,
[0085] Check dp[0]
[100] = ∞, indicating that the first refrigerator is selected, and add refrigerator number 1 to the selection list;
[0086] Generate a table of minimum power consumption and cabinet combination number configurations:
[0087] Minimum power consumption Selected refrigerator combination number 200W No. 1, No. 3

It should be pointed out that, for a person skilled in the art, several modifications, improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
