Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of drinking water ice makers, and in particular to a control method, system, intelligent terminal and storage medium for a drinking water ice maker. Background Art

[0002] In the related art, there are usually three options on a drinking water ice maker: cold water, hot water, and ice output. When a person uses the drinking water ice maker, they can press the cold water button, hot water button, or ice output button to receive water according to their actual needs. When a person needs to use warm water, they generally receive a part of hot water and a part of cold water and mix them before use.

[0003] In view of the above related art, when a person needs to use warm water, they need to press two buttons, first receive water of one temperature, then receive water of another temperature, and mix the two to obtain warm water. This makes the use of the drinking water ice maker inconvenient and there is room for improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to improve the convenience of using a drinking water ice maker, the present application provides a control method, system, intelligent terminal and storage medium for a drinking water ice maker.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a control method for a drinking water ice maker, adopting the following technical solution:

[0006] A control method for a drinking water ice maker includes:

[0007] Obtaining a warm water use trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker;

[0008] Obtaining warm water parameters of a preset warm water tank based on the warm water use trigger signal;

[0009] Judging whether the warm water parameters meet the requirements of preset warm water use parameters;

[0010] If they meet the requirements, controlling a preset warm water discharge device to discharge the warm water in the warm water tank for personnel to use, and continuing to obtain warm water parameters for cyclic judgment;

[0011] If they do not meet the requirements, controlling a preset warm water mixing device to pump water from a preset hot water tank and a preset cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, and continuing to obtain warm water parameters for cyclic judgment;

[0012] Obtaining a warm water shutdown trigger signal;

[0013] Controlling the warm water discharge device and the warm water mixing device to close according to the warm water shutdown trigger signal.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when a warm water usage trigger signal is detected and it is determined that the warm water parameters meet the requirements of the warm water usage parameters, the warm water discharging device is controlled to discharge warm water for personnel to use. When the warm water parameters do not meet the requirements of the warm water usage parameters, the warm water mixing device is controlled to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, so that there is no need for personnel to repeatedly receive and mix water to obtain warm water, thereby improving the convenience of using the drinking and ice-making machine.

[0015] Optionally, the step of controlling the preset warm water mixing device to pump the water in the preset hot water tank and the preset cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water includes:

[0016] Obtain the hot water temperature value of the hot water tank and the cold water temperature value of the cold water tank in real time;

[0017] Judge whether the hot water temperature value meets the requirements of the preset warm water temperature value;

[0018] If it meets, determine the water volume ratio value according to the preset full hot water ratio value;

[0019] If it does not meet, analyze the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value to determine the water volume ratio value;

[0020] Analyze the water volume ratio value and the preset water inlet parameter value to determine the actual water inlet parameter;

[0021] Control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water according to the actual water inlet parameter.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is determined that the hot water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the water temperature in the hot water tank just meets the required temperature of the warm water. Therefore, determine the full hot water ratio as the water volume ratio value; when the water temperature in the hot water tank exceeds the temperature value, cold water is needed for cooling. Therefore, analyze the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value to determine the water volume ratio value, determine the actual water inlet parameter according to the water volume ratio value and the water inlet parameter value, and thus control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, thereby improving the accuracy of supplementing warm water.

[0023] Optionally, the step of analyzing the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value to determine the water volume ratio value includes:

[0024] Analyze the hot water temperature value and the warm water temperature value to determine the hot water change temperature value;

[0025] Analyze the cold water temperature value and the warm water temperature value to determine the cold water change temperature value;

[0026] Analyze the temperature change values of hot water and cold water to determine the water volume ratio value of hot water and cold water.

[0027] By adopting the above technical solution, according to the ratio between the temperature change value of hot water and the temperature change value of cold water being equal to the inverse ratio between the water volume of hot water and the water volume of cold water, calculate the water volume ratio value, thereby improving the accuracy of determining the water volume ratio value.

[0028] Optionally, after determining the water volume ratio value, it further includes a step of correcting the water volume ratio value. The specific steps include:

[0029] Obtain the existing warm water temperature value of the warm water tank;

[0030] Judge whether the existing warm water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value;

[0031] If it meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value, do not correct the water volume ratio value;

[0032] If it does not meet the requirements of the warm water temperature value, then judge whether the water volume ratio value meets the requirements of the full hot water ratio value;

[0033] If it meets the requirements of the full hot water ratio value, do not correct the water volume ratio value;

[0034] If it does not meet the requirements of the full hot water ratio value, then correct the water volume ratio value according to the preset remaining warm water correction method.

[0035] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is determined that the existing warm water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value, or when the existing warm water temperature value does not meet the requirements of the warm water temperature value and the water volume ratio value meets the requirements of the full hot water ratio value, then there is no need to correct the water volume ratio value; when it does not meet the requirements of the full hot water ratio value, then correct the water volume ratio value according to the remaining warm water correction method, so as to ensure that the temperature in the warm water tank after entering water according to the water volume ratio value is kept as close as possible to the required temperature value, thereby improving the accuracy of the water volume ratio value.

[0036] Optionally, the steps of correcting the water volume ratio value according to the preset remaining warm water correction method include:

[0037] Obtain the existing warm water weight value of the warm water tank;

[0038] Analyze the existing warm water weight value, the existing warm water temperature value, the hot water temperature value and the warm water temperature value to determine the previous mixed hot water volume value;

[0039] Analyze the previous mixed hot water volume value and the water inlet parameter value to determine the previous hot water inlet time;

[0040] Associate the full hot water ratio value and the previous hot water inlet time to generate the previous water volume ratio value;

[0041] Obtain a stable water volume ratio value;

[0042] Associate the previous water volume ratio value with the stable water volume ratio value to generate a water volume ratio value.

[0043] By adopting the above technical solution, according to the existing warm water weight value, existing warm water temperature value, hot water temperature value, and warm water temperature value, determine the previous mixed hot water volume value for raising the temperature of the remaining water in the warm water tank to the required temperature when hot water enters the warm water tank. Then, calculate the previous hot water inlet time based on the previous mixed hot water volume value and the inlet water parameter value. Thus, associate the full hot water ratio value with the previous hot water inlet time to obtain the previous water volume ratio value for raising the temperature of the remaining water in the warm water tank to the required temperature, and after associating it with the stable water volume ratio value, obtain the water volume ratio value, thereby improving the accuracy of the water volume ratio value.

[0044] Optionally, the steps of controlling the warm water mixing device to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water according to the actual inlet water parameters include:

[0045] Judge whether the actual inlet water parameter is a preset single inlet water parameter or a preset mixed inlet water parameter;

[0046] If it is a single inlet water parameter, obtain the first remaining water temperature value of the warm water tank;

[0047] Judge whether the first remaining water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value;

[0048] If it meets the requirements, control the warm water mixing device to pump water from the hot water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water with the actual inlet water parameter;

[0049] If it does not meet the requirements, control the preset drainage device to drain all the water in the warm water tank, and then control the warm water mixing device to pump water from the hot water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water with the actual inlet water parameter;

[0050] If it is a mixed inlet water parameter, control the warm water mixing device to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water according to the preset stirring inlet method.

[0051] By adopting the above technical solution, when the actual inlet water parameter is a single inlet water parameter and it is determined that the first remaining warm water value does not meet the requirements of the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the temperature value of the hot water is just within the range of the warm water temperature value but the temperature of the warm water is relatively low. At this time, pumping in hot water cannot raise the temperature of the remaining water in a short time. Therefore, after draining the water in the warm water tank, control the warm water mixing device to pump water from the hot water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water with the actual inlet water parameter; when the actual inlet water parameter is a mixed inlet water parameter, control the warm water mixing device to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank according to the stirring inlet method, thereby improving the accuracy of supplementing warm water.

[0052] Optionally, the steps of controlling the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water according to a preset stirring and water inlet method include:

[0053] Obtain the second remaining water temperature value of the warm water tank, and control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water with actual water inlet parameters;

[0054] Judge whether the second remaining water temperature value meets the requirement of the warm water temperature value;

[0055] If it meets the requirement, continue to control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water with actual water inlet parameters;

[0056] If it does not meet the requirement, control the preset stirring device to stir to make the water in the warm water tank mix evenly, and obtain the stirring time;

[0057] Judge whether the stirring time meets the requirement of the actual water inlet parameters;

[0058] If it does not meet the requirement, continue to control the stirring device to stir, and continue to obtain the stirring time for cyclic judgment;

[0059] If it meets the requirement, control the stirring device to stop.

[0060] By adopting the above technical solution, when the second remaining water temperature value does not meet the requirement of the warm water temperature value, it indicates that it is necessary to first pump in hot water to mix with the remaining warm water to increase the warm water temperature. At this time, control the stirring device to stir to make the hot water mix evenly with the temperature, and control the stirring device to stop when the stirring time meets the requirement of the actual water inlet parameters, thereby improving the accuracy of supplementing warm water.

[0061] Optionally, the steps of obtaining the warm water use trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker include:

[0062] Obtain the start trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker;

[0063] Based on the start trigger signal, obtain the key trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker;

[0064] Analyze the key trigger signal to determine that the key trigger signal is a preset hot water key signal or a preset cold water key signal or a preset warm water key signal or a preset ice making key signal;

[0065] If it is a hot water key signal, control the drinking water ice maker to make hot water according to the key trigger signal;

[0066] If it is a cold water key signal, control the drinking water ice maker to make cold water according to the key trigger signal;

[0067] If it is a warm water button signal, output a warm water usage trigger signal;

[0068] If it is an ice-making button signal, control the ice-making of the drinking water ice maker according to the button trigger signal.

[0069] By adopting the above technical solution, after detecting the start trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker, the button trigger signal is detected, and it is analyzed whether the button trigger signal is a hot water button signal, a cold water button signal, a warm water button signal or an ice-making button signal, so as to control the operation of the drinking water ice maker according to the specific case, thereby improving the convenience of using the drinking water ice maker.

[0070] Optionally, it further includes an energy-saving step, and the specific steps include:

[0071] Obtain the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker;

[0072] Judge whether the ambient brightness value meets the requirements of the preset standby brightness value;

[0073] If not, control the drinking water ice maker to work normally according to the preset normal working signal, and continue to obtain the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker for cyclic judgment;

[0074] If it meets the requirements, control the drinking water ice maker to standby, and continue to obtain the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker for cyclic judgment.

[0075] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is determined that the ambient brightness value meets the requirements of the standby brightness value, it indicates that the environment where the drinking water ice maker is located is in a dark state, so the drinking water ice maker is controlled to standby, thereby saving energy.

[0076] In a second aspect, the present application provides a control system for a drinking water ice maker, adopting the following technical solution:

[0077] A control system for a drinking water ice maker, including:

[0078] An acquisition module, configured to acquire a warm water usage trigger signal, warm water parameters and a warm water off trigger signal;

[0079] A memory, configured to store a program of a control method for a drinking water ice maker as described in any one of the above;

[0080] A processor, the program in the memory can be loaded and executed by the processor and implement a control method for a drinking water ice maker as described in any one of the above.

[0081] By adopting the above technical solution, the control processor loads and executes a program of a drinking water ice maker control method stored in the memory, enabling the acquisition module to acquire a series of data related to the control of the drinking water ice maker. Thus, when a warm water use trigger signal is detected and it is determined that the warm water parameters meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water discharge device is controlled to discharge warm water for personnel to use. When the warm water parameters do not meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water mixing device is controlled to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, eliminating the need for personnel to repeatedly draw and mix water to obtain warm water, thereby improving the convenience of using the drinking water ice maker.

[0082] In a third aspect, the present application provides an intelligent terminal, adopting the following technical solution:

[0083] An intelligent terminal includes a memory and a processor, and a computer program capable of being loaded and executed by the processor, which is a drinking water ice maker control method as described in any one of the above.

[0084] By adopting the above technical solution, by operating the intelligent terminal, the processor loads and executes a computer program of a drinking water ice maker control method stored in the memory. Thus, when a warm water use trigger signal is detected and it is determined that the warm water parameters meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water discharge device is controlled to discharge warm water for personnel to use. When the warm water parameters do not meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water mixing device is controlled to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, eliminating the need for personnel to repeatedly draw and mix water to obtain warm water, thereby improving the convenience of using the drinking water ice maker.

[0085] In a fourth aspect, the present application provides a computer storage medium capable of storing a corresponding program, featuring facilitating the improvement of the convenience of using the drinking water ice maker, adopting the following technical solution:

[0086] A computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program capable of being loaded and executed by the processor, which is any one of the above drinking water ice maker control methods.

[0087] By adopting the above technical solution, a computer program of a drinking water ice maker control method is stored in the computer-readable storage medium, enabling the processor to load and execute the computer program in the storage medium. Thus, when a warm water use trigger signal is detected and it is determined that the warm water parameters meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water discharge device is controlled to discharge warm water for personnel to use. When the warm water parameters do not meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water mixing device is controlled to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, eliminating the need for personnel to repeatedly draw and mix water to obtain warm water, thereby improving the convenience of using the drinking water ice maker.

[0088] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0089] When a warm water use trigger signal is detected and it is determined that the warm water parameters meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water discharge device is controlled to discharge warm water for personnel to use. When the warm water parameters do not meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, the warm water mixing device is controlled to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, eliminating the need for personnel to repeat the process of receiving and mixing water to obtain warm water, thereby improving the convenience of using the drinking ice maker;

[0090] When it is determined that the hot water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the water temperature in the hot water tank just meets the required temperature of the warm water. Therefore, the full hot water ratio is determined as the water volume ratio value. When the water temperature in the hot water tank exceeds the temperature value, cold water is required for cooling. Therefore, after analyzing the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value, the water volume ratio value is determined, and the actual water inlet parameters are determined based on the water volume ratio value and the water inlet parameter value. Then, the warm water mixing device is controlled according to the actual water inlet parameters to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, thereby improving the accuracy of supplementing warm water;

[0091] By determining the pre-mixed hot water volume value for raising the temperature of the remaining water in the warm water tank to the required temperature when the hot water enters the warm water tank based on the existing warm water weight value, the existing warm water temperature value, the hot water temperature value, and the warm water temperature value, and then calculating the pre-hot water inlet time based on the pre-mixed hot water volume value and the water inlet parameter value, the pre-water volume ratio value for raising the temperature of the remaining water in the warm water tank to the required temperature is obtained by correlating the full hot water ratio value and the pre-hot water inlet time, and the water volume ratio value is obtained after correlating with the stable water volume ratio value, thereby improving the accuracy of the water volume ratio value.

[0101] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the following further describes the present application in detail with reference to the attached Figures 1 - 9 drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0102] The embodiment of the present application discloses a control method for a drinking water ice maker, specifically discloses a processing terminal, a warm water discharging device and a warm water mixing device. The processing terminal is respectively connected to the warm water discharging device and the warm water mixing device through data wires to realize data interaction and control. When the processing terminal receives a warm water use trigger signal, the processing terminal issues an instruction to control relevant sensors to detect the warm water parameters of the warm water tank. When the processing terminal determines that the warm water parameters meet the requirements of the warm water use parameters, it controls the warm water discharging device to discharge the warm water in the warm water tank for personnel to use. When they do not meet the requirements, it controls the warm water mixing device to pump water from the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, so as to ensure sufficient warm water, without the need for personnel to repeat receiving water and mixing cold and hot water by themselves, thereby improving the convenience of using the drinking water ice maker.

[0103] Referring to Figure 1 , the embodiment of the present application discloses a control method for a drinking water ice maker, including the following steps:

[0104] Step S100: Obtain a warm water use trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker.

[0105] Among them, the warm water use trigger signal refers to the trigger signal when personnel need to use warm water. The specific obtaining method refers to Figure 8 the steps.

[0106] Step S101: Obtain the warm water parameters of the preset warm water tank based on the warm water usage trigger signal.

[0107] Among them, when the processing terminal receives the warm water usage trigger signal, the processing terminal responds to the warm water usage trigger signal, thereby detecting the warm water parameters of the warm water tank, providing data support for subsequent determination of whether warm water can be released.

[0108] The warm water tank refers to a water tank used to store warm water. The warm water parameters refer to the water volume and water temperature of the existing warm water in the warm water tank, which are detected by the temperature sensor and the force-sensitive sensor installed on the warm water tank.

[0109] Step S102: Determine whether the warm water parameters meet the requirements of the preset warm water usage parameters.

[0110] Among them, the warm water usage parameters refer to the warm water temperature and water volume in the water tank when warm water is normally released, and the specific values are determined by the operator according to the actual situation. The requirements for the warm water usage parameters mean that the warm water temperature is equal to the temperature corresponding to the warm water usage parameters, and the warm water volume is not less than the water volume corresponding to the warm water usage parameters.

[0111] The processing terminal determines whether the temperature corresponding to the warm water parameters is equal to the temperature corresponding to the warm water usage parameters, and whether the water volume corresponding to the warm water parameters is not less than the water volume corresponding to the warm water usage parameters, so as to determine whether the existing warm water in the warm water tank can be directly released for use.

[0112] Step S1021: If it meets the requirements, control the preset warm water discharging device to discharge the warm water in the warm water tank for personnel to use, and continue to obtain the warm water parameters for cyclic judgment.

[0113] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the temperature corresponding to the warm water parameters is equal to the temperature corresponding to the warm water usage parameters, and the water volume corresponding to the warm water parameters is not less than the water volume corresponding to the warm water usage parameters, it indicates that the water temperature and water volume in the warm water tank can meet the normal usage requirements of personnel at this time. Therefore, control the warm water discharging device to discharge the warm water in the warm water tank for personnel to use, and continue to detect the warm water parameters, so as to continuously monitor the situation of the warm water in the warm water tank.

[0114] The warm water discharging device refers to a valve installed on the warm water outlet pipe, which is used to control the opening and closing of the warm water outlet pipe, thereby controlling the outflow of warm water.

[0115] Step S1022: If it does not meet the requirements, control the preset warm water mixing device to pump the water in the preset hot water tank and the preset cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water, and continue to obtain the warm water parameters for cyclic judgment.

[0116] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the temperature corresponding to the warm water parameter is lower than the temperature corresponding to the warm water usage parameter, or the water volume corresponding to the warm water parameter is less than the water volume corresponding to the warm water usage parameter, it indicates that the water temperature or water volume in the warm water tank at this time cannot meet the normal usage requirements of personnel. Therefore, the warm water mixing device is controlled to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing and then supplement the warm water. For the specific method, refer to Figure 2 the steps of

[0117] The hot water tank refers to the water tank in the drinking water and ice making machine that stores hot water, and the cold water tank refers to the water tank in the drinking water and ice making machine that stores cold water. The warm water mixing device refers to the device that pumps the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank, including two water pumps and water pipes corresponding to connect the warm water tank, the hot water tank and the cold water tank.

[0118] Step S103: Obtain the warm water shutdown trigger signal.

[0119] Among them, the warm water shutdown trigger signal refers to the signal to stop releasing warm water, which is activated by the person touching the warm water button again to activate the warm water shutdown trigger signal stored in the processing terminal.

[0120] Step S104: Control the warm water discharging device and the warm water mixing device to close according to the warm water shutdown trigger signal.

[0121] Among them, when the processing terminal receives the warm water shutdown trigger signal, the processing terminal responds to the warm water shutdown trigger signal, thereby controlling the warm water discharging device and the warm water mixing device to close. On the one hand, it prevents the warm water from flowing out continuously, and on the other hand, it does not supplement too much warm water to avoid the decrease of the warm water temperature.

[0122] Refer to Figure 2 , the steps of controlling the preset warm water mixing device to pump the water in the preset hot water tank and the preset cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement the warm water include:

[0123] Step S200: Obtain the hot water temperature value of the hot water tank and the cold water temperature value of the cold water tank in real time.

[0124] Among them, the hot water temperature value refers to the temperature value of the hot water in the hot water tank, which is detected by the temperature sensor installed on the hot water tank and sent to the processing terminal. The cold water temperature value refers to the temperature value of the cold water in the cold water tank, which is detected by the temperature sensor installed on the cold water tank and sent to the processing terminal.

[0125] Step S201: Judge whether the hot water temperature value meets the requirements of the preset warm water temperature value.

[0126] Among them, the warm water temperature value refers to the temperature value of the warm water that can be used, and the specific value is determined by the operator according to the actual situation. The requirement of the warm water temperature value means being equal to the warm water temperature value.

[0127] The processing terminal determines whether the hot water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, so as to determine whether it is only necessary to pump the hot water into the warm water tank.

[0128] Step S2011: If it meets the condition, determine the water volume ratio value according to the preset full hot water ratio value.

[0129] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the hot water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the water temperature in the hot water tank just meets the temperature requirement for the user to use warm water. Therefore, the full hot water ratio value is determined as the water volume ratio value.

[0130] The full hot water ratio value refers to the ratio value of only using hot water. The water volume ratio value refers to the pumping ratio value of hot water and cold water. In this step, the water volume ratio value is directly defined as the full hot water ratio value by the processing terminal.

[0131] Step S2012: If it does not meet the condition, analyze the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value to determine the water volume ratio value.

[0132] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the hot water temperature value is not equal to the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the temperature value of the hot water must be higher than the warm water temperature value. Therefore, cold water needs to be mixed in to reduce the temperature value of the hot water. After analyzing the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value, the water volume ratio value is determined. The specific method refers to Figure 3 the steps.

[0133] The water volume ratio value in this step is defined in the same way as the water volume ratio value in step S2011. However, the water volume ratio value in this step is determined by the processing terminal after analyzing the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value. The specific analysis method refers to Figure 3 the steps.

[0134] Step S202: Analyze the water volume ratio value and the preset water inlet parameter value to determine the actual water inlet parameter.

[0135] Among them, the water inlet parameter value refers to the flow rate of pumping water into the warm water tank, and the specific value is determined by the operator according to the actual situation. The actual water inlet parameter refers to the hot water pumping flow rate and the cold water pumping flow rate allocated according to the water inlet parameter value, which is obtained by the processing terminal allocating the water inlet parameter value according to the water volume ratio value. For example, if the water volume ratio value is 1:1, the water inlet parameter value is evenly divided.

[0136] Step S203: Control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water according to the actual water inlet parameter.

[0137] Among them, after the processing terminal determines the actual water inlet parameters, the processing terminal controls the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank according to the hot water pumping flow rate and the cold water pumping flow rate corresponding to the actual water inlet parameters, so as to supplement warm water in the warm water tank according to the usage temperature of the warm water. For the specific method, refer to Figure 6 Steps.

[0138] Refer to Figure 3 , the steps of analyzing the hot water temperature value and the cold water temperature value to determine the water volume ratio value include:

[0139] Step S300: Analyze the hot water temperature value and the warm water temperature value to determine the hot water change temperature value.

[0140] Among them, the hot water change temperature value refers to the temperature value that the hot water temperature value needs to change to be reduced to the warm water temperature value, and is obtained by the processing terminal calculating the difference between the hot water temperature value and the warm water temperature value.

[0141] Step S301: Analyze the cold water temperature value and the warm water temperature value to determine the cold water change temperature value.

[0142] Among them, the cold water change temperature value refers to the temperature value that the cold water temperature value needs to change to be increased to the warm water temperature value, and is obtained by the processing terminal calculating the difference between the warm water temperature value and the cold water temperature value.

[0143] Step S302: Analyze the hot water change temperature value and the cold water change temperature value to determine the water volume ratio value of the hot water and the cold water.

[0144] Among them, the water volume ratio value in this step is the same as the water volume ratio value in step S2012, and the processing terminal calculates the inverse ratio between the hot water change temperature value and the cold water change temperature value according to the heat balance principle to obtain the water volume ratio value.

[0145] Refer to Figure 4 , after determining the water volume ratio value, it also includes the steps of correcting the water volume ratio value. The specific steps include:

[0146] Step S400: Obtain the existing warm water temperature value of the warm water tank.

[0147] Among them, the existing warm water temperature value refers to the water temperature in the warm water tank before supplementing warm water, and is detected by the temperature sensor installed on the warm water tank and sent to the processing terminal.

[0148] Step S401: Judge whether the existing warm water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value.

[0149] Among them, the requirements for the warm water temperature value in this step are the same as those for the warm water temperature value in step S201, and will not be elaborated here.

[0150] The processing terminal determines whether the existing warm water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, so as to determine whether the temperature of the existing warm water needs to be considered when pumping water into the warm water tank.

[0151] Step S4011: If the requirements for the warm water temperature value are met, the water volume ratio value is not corrected.

[0152] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the existing warm water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the warm water temperature in the warm water tank is the temperature that can be directly used. When pumping water into the warm water tank, the existing water temperature will not affect the mixing temperature of hot water and cold water. Therefore, the water volume ratio value is not corrected.

[0153] Step S4012: If the requirements for the warm water temperature value are not met, it is judged whether the water volume ratio value meets the requirements for the all-hot water ratio value.

[0154] Among them, the requirement for the all-hot water ratio value means being consistent with the all-hot water ratio value.

[0155] If the processing terminal determines that the existing warm water temperature value is not equal to the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the warm water temperature in the warm water tank is lower than the warm water temperature for use. When pumping water into the warm water tank, the existing water temperature will affect the mixing temperature of hot water and cold water. Therefore, it is judged whether the water volume ratio value is consistent with the all-hot water ratio value to determine whether the influence of the existing water temperature needs to be considered.

[0156] Step S40121: If the requirements for the all-hot water ratio value are met, the water volume ratio value is not corrected.

[0157] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the water volume ratio value is consistent with the all-hot water ratio value, it indicates that only hot water is pumped in, and the temperature of the hot water is equal to the temperature of the warm water for use. At this time, the existing water temperature is low, and changing the ratio value cannot improve the formation efficiency of the warm water. Therefore, the water volume ratio value is not corrected.

[0158] Step S40122: If the requirements for the all-hot water ratio value are not met, the water volume ratio value is corrected according to the preset remaining warm water correction method.

[0159] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the water volume ratio value is inconsistent with the all-hot water ratio value, it indicates that both hot water and cold water are pumped in. At this time, the temperature of the hot water is higher than the temperature of the warm water for use. Although the existing water temperature is low at this time, the higher-temperature hot water mixed with the existing warm water can increase the temperature of the existing warm water. Therefore, the water volume ratio value is corrected according to the remaining warm water correction method. The specific method refers to Figure 5 the steps, so as to quickly increase the temperature of the remaining warm water to the temperature for use by increasing the hot water ratio.

[0160] The remaining warm water correction method refers to a method of correcting the water volume ratio value by combining the influence of the remaining warm water temperature and weight, which is stored in the processing terminal by the operator.

[0161] Refer to Figure 5 , the steps of correcting the water volume ratio value according to the preset remaining warm water correction method include:

[0162] Step S500: Obtain the existing warm water weight value of the warm water tank.

[0163] Among them, the existing warm water weight value refers to the weight of the remaining warm water in the warm water tank before adding warm water, which is detected by the force-sensitive sensor installed on the warm water tank and sent to the processing terminal to obtain.

[0164] Step S501: Analyze the existing warm water weight value, the existing warm water temperature value, the hot water temperature value and the warm water temperature value to determine the previous mixed hot water volume value.

[0165] Among them, the previous mixed hot water volume value refers to the weight of hot water that needs to be added to raise the temperature of the remaining warm water to the use temperature. The processing terminal calculates the ratio of the change value from the existing warm water temperature value to the warm water temperature value and the change value from the hot water temperature value to the warm water temperature value according to the heat balance principle, and then calculates the product between the existing warm water weight value and the ratio to obtain the previous mixed hot water volume value.

[0166] Step S502: Analyze the previous mixed hot water volume value and the water inlet parameter value to determine the previous hot water inlet time.

[0167] Among them, the previous hot water inlet time refers to the time required for the hot water to raise the temperature of the remaining warm water to the use temperature, which is obtained by the processing terminal calculating the quotient of the previous mixed hot water volume value and the flow rate corresponding to the water inlet parameter value.

[0168] Step S503: Associate the full hot water ratio value and the previous hot water inlet time to generate the previous water volume ratio value.

[0169] Among them, the previous water volume ratio value refers to the ratio value for raising the temperature of the remaining warm water to the use temperature, which is obtained by the processing terminal storing the full hot water ratio value and the previous hot water inlet time in the same data packet.

[0170] Step S504: Obtain the stable water volume ratio value.

[0171] Among them, the stable water volume ratio value refers to the pumping ratio value after raising the temperature of the remaining warm water to the use temperature, that is, the ratio value before correction.

[0172] Step S505: Associate the previous water volume ratio value and the stable water volume ratio value to generate the water volume ratio value.

[0173] Among them, the water volume ratio value in this step is formed by the processing terminal storing the previous water volume ratio value and the stable water volume ratio value in the same data packet in sequence, so that the hot water first enters the warm water tank within a certain period of time to raise the temperature of the remaining warm water to the usage temperature, and then hot water and cold water are pumped in according to a certain ratio to mix and obtain warm water at the same temperature for supplementation.

[0174] Refer to Figure 6 , the steps of controlling the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement warm water according to the actual water inlet parameters include:

[0175] Step S600: Determine whether the actual water inlet parameter is a preset separate water inlet parameter or a preset mixed water inlet parameter.

[0176] Among them, the separate water inlet parameter means that only hot water enters the warm water tank, and the mixed water inlet parameter means that both hot water and cold water enter the warm water tank, which are stored in the processing terminal by the operator.

[0177] The processing terminal determines whether the actual water inlet parameter is a separate water inlet parameter or a mixed water inlet parameter, so as to determine how to pump water into the warm water tank to supplement warm water specifically.

[0178] Step S601: If it is a separate water inlet parameter, obtain the first remaining water temperature value of the warm water tank.

[0179] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the actual water inlet parameter is a separate water inlet parameter, it means that the warm water mixing device only pumps hot water into the warm water tank. At this time, the first remaining water temperature value of the warm water tank is detected to provide data support for subsequent specific hot water pumping control.

[0180] The first remaining water temperature value refers to the temperature value of the remaining warm water in the warm water tank before hot water is pumped in, which is detected by the temperature sensor installed on the warm water tank and sent to the processing terminal.

[0181] Step S6011: Determine whether the first remaining water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value.

[0182] Among them, the requirements for the warm water temperature value in this step are the same as those for the greenhouse temperature value in step S201, which will not be elaborated here.

[0183] The processing terminal determines whether the first remaining water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, so as to determine whether hot water can be directly pumped into the warm water tank.

[0184] Step S60111: If it meets the requirements, control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water according to the actual water inlet parameter.

[0185] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the first remaining water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the warm water temperature in the warm water tank will not affect the pumped hot water. Therefore, the warm water mixing device is controlled to pump the water in the hot water tank into the warm water tank to supplement the warm water at the flow rate corresponding to the actual water inlet parameters.

[0186] Step S60112: If not, control the preset drainage device to drain all the water in the warm water tank, and then control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank into the warm water tank to supplement the warm water at the actual water inlet parameters.

[0187] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the first remaining water temperature value is not equal to the warm water temperature value, it indicates that the temperature of the remaining warm water in the warm water tank is relatively low, which will cause the temperature of the pumped hot water to drop and not meet the temperature requirements for use. Therefore, control the drainage device to drain all the water in the warm water tank to prevent the remaining warm water from affecting the hot water temperature value, and then control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank into the warm water tank to supplement the warm water at the flow rate corresponding to the actual water inlet parameters.

[0188] The drainage device refers to the device used to drain the remaining warm water in the warm water tank, including a water pump and a pipeline. The water pump pumps out and drains the warm water in the warm water tank through the pipeline.

[0189] Step S602: If it is a mixed water inlet parameter, control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement the warm water according to the preset stirring water inlet method.

[0190] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the actual water inlet parameter is a mixed water inlet parameter, it indicates that both hot water and cold water will enter the warm water tank. Therefore, control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement the warm water according to the stirring water inlet method. The specific method refers to Figure 7 the steps.

[0191] The stirring water inlet method refers to the method in which the warm water mixing device stirs the hot water and the remaining warm water when pumping in the hot water to make the hot water and the warm water mix evenly, which is stored in the processing terminal by the operator.

[0192] Refer to Figure 7 , the steps of controlling the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank for mixing to supplement the warm water according to the preset stirring water inlet method include:

[0193] Step S700: Obtain the second remaining water temperature value of the warm water tank, and control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank to supplement the warm water at the actual water inlet parameters.

[0194] Among them, before pumping water, first detect the second remaining water temperature value of the warm water tank, and then control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water at the hot water flow rate and cold water flow rate corresponding to the actual water inlet parameters.

[0195] The second remaining water temperature value is the same as the first remaining water temperature value in step S601, which will not be elaborated here.

[0196] Step S701: Determine whether the second remaining water temperature value meets the requirements of the warm water temperature value.

[0197] Among them, the requirements for the warm water temperature value in this step are the same as the requirements for the greenhouse temperature value in step S201, which will not be elaborated here.

[0198] The processing terminal determines whether the second remaining water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, so as to determine whether the warm water mixing device will pump hot water and cold water at the same time or will first pump hot water to increase the temperature of the remaining warm water.

[0199] Step S7011: If it meets the requirements, continue to control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water at the actual water inlet parameters.

[0200] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the second remaining water temperature value is equal to the warm water temperature value, it means that the warm water mixing device will pump hot water and cold water at the same time. Therefore, continue to control the warm water mixing device to pump the water in the hot water tank and the cold water tank into the warm water tank to supplement warm water at the hot water flow rate and cold water flow rate corresponding to the actual water inlet parameters.

[0201] Step S7012: If it does not meet the requirements, control the preset stirring device to stir to make the water in the warm water tank mix evenly, and obtain the stirring time.

[0202] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the second remaining water temperature value is not equal to the warm water temperature value, it means that the warm water mixing device will first pump hot water to increase the temperature of the remaining warm water. At this time, control the stirring device to stir, so that the hot water entering the warm water tank is mixed evenly with the warm water, accelerating the efficiency of temperature increase, and detecting the stirring time to provide data support for controlling the stirring device to stop later.

[0203] The stirring device refers to a device installed in the warm water tank for evenly mixing hot water and warm water, which can be formed by a motor driving a stirring paddle. The stirring time refers to the time when the stirring device stirs, which is obtained by timing with a timer.

[0204] Step S702: Determine whether the stirring time meets the requirements of the actual water inlet parameters.

[0205] Among them, the requirement for the actual water inlet parameters refers to the previous hot water inlet time in the actual water inlet parameters. The processing terminal determines whether the stirring time is equal to the previous hot water inlet time in the actual water inlet parameters, so as to determine whether the time for separately pumping in hot water is completed.

[0206] Step S7021: If not met, continue to control the stirring device to stir and continue to obtain the stirring time for cyclic judgment.

[0207] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the stirring time is not equal to the previous hot water inlet time in the actual water inlet parameters, it indicates that the time for separately pumping in hot water has not been completed. Therefore, continue to control the stirring device to stir and continue to detect the stirring time, so as to continuously monitor the change of the time for separately pumping in hot water.

[0208] Step S7022: If met, control the stirring device to stop.

[0209] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the stirring time is equal to the previous hot water inlet time in the actual water inlet parameters, it indicates that the time for separately pumping in hot water has been completed, and subsequent hot water and cold water are pumped in simultaneously, and there is no need to stir anymore. Therefore, control the stirring device to stop.

[0210] Refer to Figure 8 , the steps for obtaining the warm water use trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker include:

[0211] Step S800: Obtain the start trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker.

[0212] Among them, the start trigger signal refers to the signal for the drinking water ice maker to be powered on and started. After the drinking water ice maker is powered on, the buzzer sounds once, and all indicator lights light up for 1 second and then go out, entering the standby state. After the operator presses the power button, the buzzer sounds once and the power light stays on. At this time, the drinking water ice maker starts and activates the start trigger signal.

[0213] Step S801: Obtain the key trigger signal of the drinking water ice maker based on the start trigger signal.

[0214] Among them, the key trigger signal refers to the signal that the processing terminal of the drinking water ice maker receives the signal of the person pressing the key, which is obtained by the processing terminal detecting the signal of the person pressing the key in real time after receiving the start trigger signal.

[0215] Step S802: Analyze the key trigger signal to determine that the key trigger signal is a preset hot water key signal or a preset cold water key signal or a preset warm water key signal or a preset ice making key signal.

[0216] Among them, the hot water button signal refers to the signal triggered when the hot water button is pressed, the cold water button signal refers to the signal triggered when the cold water button is pressed, the warm water button signal refers to the signal triggered when the warm water button is pressed, and the ice-making button signal refers to the signal triggered when the ice-making button is pressed. All of them are stored in the processing terminal by the operator.

[0217] The processing terminal receives and compares the button trigger signal with the hot water button signal, cold water button signal, warm water button signal, and ice-making button signal respectively, so as to provide data support for determining how the drinking water ice maker works subsequently.

[0218] Step S8021: If it is a hot water button signal, control the drinking water ice maker to make hot water according to the button trigger signal.

[0219] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the button trigger signal is a hot water button signal, it indicates that the operator presses the hot water button. Therefore, control the drinking water ice maker to make hot water according to the button trigger signal. The specific method is: press the hot water button once, the drinking water ice maker starts to make hot water, press the hot water button again, the drinking water ice maker starts to discharge hot water, and stop discharging hot water after 60 seconds of water discharge or when the hot water button is pressed again.

[0220] Step S8022: If it is a cold water button signal, control the drinking water ice maker to make cold water according to the button trigger signal.

[0221] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the button trigger signal is a cold water button signal, it indicates that the operator presses the cold water button. Therefore, control the drinking water ice maker to make cold water according to the button trigger signal. The specific method is: press the cold water button once, the drinking water ice maker starts to make cold water, press the cold water button again, the drinking water ice maker starts to discharge cold water, and stop discharging cold water after 60 seconds of water discharge or when the cold water button is pressed again.

[0222] Step S8023: If it is a warm water button signal, output a warm water use trigger signal.

[0223] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the button trigger signal is a cold water button signal, it indicates that the operator presses the warm water button. Therefore, output a warm water use trigger signal.

[0224] Step S8024: If it is an ice-making button signal, control the drinking water ice maker to make ice according to the button trigger signal.

[0225] Among them, if the processing terminal determines that the button trigger signal is an ice-making button signal, it indicates that the operator presses the ice-making button. Therefore, control the drinking water ice maker to make ice according to the button trigger signal. The specific method is: press the ice-making button once, the drinking water ice maker starts to make ice, long press the ice-making button again, start to discharge ice, and stop discharging ice when leaving the ice-making button.

[0226] Refer toFigure 9 , further including an energy-saving step, and the specific steps include:

[0227] Step S900: Obtain the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker.

[0228] Wherein, the ambient brightness value refers to the brightness of the environment where the drinking water ice maker is located, which is detected by a photosensitive sensor and sent to the processing terminal to obtain.

[0229] Step S901: Determine whether the ambient brightness value meets the requirements of a preset standby brightness value.

[0230] Wherein, the standby brightness value refers to the brightness value when the drinking water ice maker is in the standby state, and the specific value is determined by the operator according to the actual situation. The requirement of the standby brightness value means not greater than the standby brightness value.

[0231] The processing terminal determines whether the ambient brightness value is not greater than the standby brightness value, so as to determine whether there are still people moving in the environment where the drinking water ice maker is located.

[0232] Step S9011: If not, control the drinking water ice maker to work normally according to the preset normal working signal, and continue to obtain the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker for cyclic judgment.

[0233] Wherein, if the processing terminal determines that the ambient brightness value is greater than the standby brightness value, it indicates that there are still people moving in the environment where the drinking water ice maker is located. Therefore, control the drinking water ice maker to work normally according to the normal working signal, detect the key signal, and continue to detect the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker, so as to continuously monitor the change of the personnel activity in the environment where the drinking water ice maker is located.

[0234] Step S9012: If it meets the requirements, control the drinking water ice maker to standby, and continue to obtain the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker for cyclic judgment.

[0235] Wherein, if the processing terminal determines that the ambient brightness value is not greater than the standby brightness value, it indicates that there are no people moving in the environment where the drinking water ice maker is located. Therefore, control the drinking water ice maker to standby, so as to save energy, and continue to detect the ambient brightness value of the drinking water ice maker, so as to continuously monitor the change of the personnel activity in the environment where the drinking water ice maker is located.
