The fourth preset temperature can be preferably minus 2.5 degrees Celsius, and the fourth preset frequency can be preferably 2000 revolutions per minute.

[0052] When the temperature of the cold storage liquid is less than or equal to the fourth preset temperature, it means that the temperature of the cold storage liquid has reached the target temperature and no longer needs to be cooled. At this time, the refrigeration device is controlled to be in a shutdown state, that is, the operating frequency of the refrigeration equipment is controlled to be zero, thereby achieving the purpose of energy saving and consumption reduction.

Through the rotation of the stirring blade 202, the stirring blade 202 can be driven by the stirring motor 201 to stir the cold storage liquid, thereby improving the uniformity of cold storage, and improving the heat exchange efficiency between the cold storage liquid in the cold storage box 200 and the drinking water in the drinking water pipeline 203, and can avoid the risk of freezing due to local overcooling of the drinking water pipeline 203.

[0057] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, after controlling the refrigeration device to be in a shutdown state, the method further includes:

[0058] S201, obtaining the current temperature of the cold storage liquid.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the refrigeration device is controlled to be in a shutdown state, the current temperature of the cold storage liquid can also be obtained in real time through the temperature sensor.

[0060] S202: When the current temperature of the cold storage liquid is greater than a third preset temperature, the refrigeration device is controlled to be in an operating state.

[0061] Specifically, in this embodiment, the current temperature of the cold storage liquid is obtained in real time through the temperature sensor. When the current temperature of the cold storage liquid is greater than the third preset temperature, the refrigeration device is controlled to be in an operating state, thereby improving the refrigeration efficiency on the basis of energy saving and consumption reduction.

[0062] It should be noted that when the temperature of the cold storage liquid is greater than the third preset temperature and less than or equal to the second preset temperature, the operating frequency of the refrigeration device is determined to be the third preset frequency, so that the refrigeration equipment can be controlled to operate at the third preset frequency. Among them, the third preset temperature can be preferably 1 degree Celsius, and the third preset frequency can be preferably 2800 revolutions per minute. When the temperature of the cold storage liquid is greater than the fourth preset temperature and less than or equal to the third preset temperature, the operating frequency of the refrigeration device is determined to be the fourth preset frequency, so that the refrigeration equipment can be controlled to operate at the fourth preset frequency. Among them, the fourth preset temperature can be preferably minus 2.5 degrees Celsius, and the fourth preset frequency can be preferably 2000 revolutions per minute.

[0063] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the control method of the drinking water equipment further includes:

[0064] S301, obtaining the duration of the cooling function of the drinking water device.

[0065] Specifically, in this embodiment, after the drinking water device turns on the cooling function, the timer starts to obtain the duration of the drinking water device turning on the cooling function. In addition, the present invention may not specifically limit the method of obtaining the duration of the drinking water device turning on the cooling function.

[0066] S302: When the duration is greater than a preset duration, the refrigeration device is controlled to be in an operating state.

[0067] Specifically, in this embodiment, the refrigeration device includes a compressor. After obtaining the length of time that the refrigeration function of the drinking water equipment is turned on, when the length of time is greater than a preset length of time, the refrigeration device is controlled to be in an operating state, thereby avoiding abnormal jitter or starting difficulty that may be caused by sudden start-up of the compressor in the refrigeration device, and helping to increase the service life of the refrigeration device.

[0068] Furthermore, in some embodiments of the present invention, the refrigeration device includes a compressor, a condenser and an evaporator, wherein the evaporator is arranged in a cold storage box, and the compressor and the condenser are arranged outside the cold storage box.

The compressor 101 can compress the low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. After the compressor 101 sends the high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant to the condenser 102, the gaseous refrigerant in the condenser 102 is gradually cooled and liquefied into a liquid refrigerant through heat exchange with the outside air. After the liquid refrigerant is reduced in pressure by a throttling device, it enters the evaporator 103. In the evaporator 103, the refrigerant quickly evaporates into a gaseous state. In this process, a large amount of heat needs to be absorbed, so that the temperature of the cold storage liquid in the cold storage box 200 is gradually reduced, thereby achieving the purpose of cold storage.

[0070] Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3As shown, the compressor 101 can be preferably a variable frequency compressor 101, the condenser 102 can be preferably a microchannel condenser 102, and a heat sink 104 is also provided below the microchannel condenser 102, wherein the heat sink 104 can be preferably an axial flow fan, and the axial flow fan generates airflow through rotating blades to quickly cool and liquefy the gaseous refrigerant in the microchannel condenser 102, and the outer shell of the cold storage box 200 is also filled with thermal insulation foam 105, thereby improving the thermal insulation performance of the cold storage box 200 and achieving the purpose of energy saving and consumption reduction. In addition, the thermal insulation foam 105 can also be replaced by materials such as rock wool board or glass wool board. A water level detection device 106 is also provided in the cold storage box 200, wherein the water level detection device 106 can be preferably a float, and then the water level of the cold storage liquid in the cold storage box 200 can be detected by the water level detection device 106, and it is ensured that the refrigeration liquid is always maintained at an appropriate level to ensure the refrigeration efficiency, and in addition, it can prevent damage to related equipment and improve the safety of the drinking water equipment 1000.

[0071] In summary, according to the control method of the drinking water equipment in the embodiment of the present invention, when the refrigeration device is in operation, the temperature of the cold storage liquid in the cold storage tank is obtained, and the operating frequency of the refrigeration device is determined according to the temperature of the cold storage liquid, so as to control the refrigeration device according to the operating frequency.
