It should be understood that a person of ordinary skill in the art can recognize that the present application can be implemented without using these specific details.

Therefore, the present application is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is consistent with the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed in the present application.

[0049] The present application provides an ice making control method, which is applied to a refrigerator, which may be a single-door, double-door, side-by-side, French, cross-door, or other type of refrigerator. Figure 1 , Figure 1The flowchart of the ice making control method provided in the embodiment of the present application. The refrigerator includes an ice making device, the ice making device includes an ice making tray, and the ice making control method includes the following steps S101-S104:

[0050] Step S101: when it is detected that the water filling of the ice-making device is completed, the first timing is started;

[0051] It should be noted that the ice-making device needs to go through the water injection stage, the freezing stage and the ice separation stage. In the water injection stage, the ice-making device evenly distributes water to each ice-making grid of the ice tray through its water injection component, and needs to ensure that the water level in each ice-making grid is consistent; in the freezing stage, the refrigerator transfers the cold energy generated by the refrigeration system to the ice tray, so that the water temperature in the ice tray gradually decreases and begins to freeze until it is completely frozen to form ice cubes; in the ice separation stage, the ice-making device will separate the ice cubes from the ice grid through the demoulding component, and rotate the ice tray to make the ice cubes fall into the ice storage box.

[0052] The ice-making device is, for example, equipped with a timer, and when receiving a signal to stop water injection, the timer starts a first timing.

[0053] Step S102: when the first timing duration reaches the first target duration, obtaining the water temperature in the ice tray;

[0054] In some extreme situations, such as when the ambient temperature is too low or the refrigeration system delivers too much cold, causing the temperature of the ice tray to drop suddenly, it is easy for the temperature detection device to mistakenly detect that the water temperature in the ice tray has reached the preset temperature, thereby mistakenly triggering the ice-leaving operation of the ice-making device; if the ice-leaving operation is performed when the water in the ice tray has not yet completely frozen, the water will enter the ice storage box and freeze the stored ice cubes together, making it difficult for the ice-making device to produce ice, and may also cause damage to the ice-discharging component. However, if the water temperature in the ice tray is detected after the first target delay time, the stage where the temperature of the ice tray is unstable can be skipped, avoiding the temperature detection device from mistakenly triggering the ice-leaving operation of the ice-making device, thereby ensuring the quality of ice making.

[0055] Step S103: If the water temperature is lower than the preset temperature threshold, the second timing starts;

[0056] It should be noted that the preset temperature threshold is set by the designer according to actual needs. When the water temperature is lower than the preset temperature threshold, it can be considered that the water in the current ice tray has frozen to form ice cubes.

[0057] The first timing and the second timing may be executed by the same timer, or may be executed by corresponding timers respectively.

[0058] Step S104: when the second timing duration reaches the second target duration, the ice-making tray is controlled to separate from the ice.

[0059] The ice tray includes a plurality of ice grids. Usually, the temperature detection device only detects the temperature of individual ice grids and determines whether they are completely frozen to form ice cubes according to the measured temperature. Under ideal normal conditions, the water injection assembly distributes water evenly to each ice grid through a distributor to ensure that the water level in each ice grid is consistent, so that the water in multiple ice grids can be frozen to form ice cubes at almost the same time. Therefore, the state of other ice grids can be inferred based on the state of one ice grid. However, in actual situations, there are often reasons such as uneven refrigeration or uneven distribution of water injection, which lead to inconsistent time for ice cubes in each ice grid to be completely frozen. Therefore, when the temperature detection device detects that the water temperature is lower than the preset temperature threshold, there may be unfrozen water in the ice tray. At this time, directly starting to leave the ice is also likely to cause the problem of ice cubes in the ice storage box freezing together. Therefore, if the ice tray is controlled to leave the ice after the second target time is delayed, the unfrozen water can continue to be refrigerated to freeze it, avoiding the problem of water being directly pushed into the ice storage box.

[0060] The ice-making control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can avoid false triggering of the ice-leaving operation of the ice-making device by delaying the start of water temperature detection after the ice-making device is filled with water, and delaying the execution of the ice-leaving operation after the water temperature reaches a preset temperature threshold, and ice-leaving is performed only after the water in the ice tray is completely frozen. In this way, unfrozen water can be prevented from entering the ice storage box, causing the stored ice to freeze together and causing difficulty in ice discharging or even damage to the ice-discharging component. The ice-making control method of the present application can ensure the quality of ice cubes in the ice-making device and reduce the risk of abnormal ice making.

[0061] With the diversification of storage needs for refrigerators, some refrigerators on the market may have functions such as quick cooling storage, deep freezing storage, and energy-saving storage in addition to the commonly used refrigerated storage and frozen storage. Different functions correspond to different optional functional modes. Users can configure the refrigerator with corresponding storage functions by selecting the corresponding functional mode based on the needs of the usage scenario. For example, when the refrigerator is configured with the quick cooling mode, it will operate at the maximum refrigeration capacity to quickly reduce the internal temperature. The quick cooling mode is suitable for users who need to quickly cool food; when the refrigerator is configured with the deep freezing mode, the temperature of the freezer will be reduced to an extremely low temperature, usually below -18°C. The deep freezing mode is suitable for users who need to quickly freeze food; when the refrigerator is configured with the energy-saving mode, it will reduce energy consumption by reducing the operating time and intensity of the refrigeration system. The energy-saving mode is suitable for users who need to save energy.

[0062] It is understandable that when the refrigerator is in different functional modes, the corresponding refrigeration system's refrigeration efficiency, refrigeration time and other data are different, which will have different effects on the ice-making rate of the ice-making device. For example, when the refrigerator is in the quick cooling mode, the ice-making rate of the ice-making device may be increased; when the refrigerator is in the energy-saving mode, the ice-making rate of the ice-making device may be reduced. In addition, the refrigerator may also have multiple ice-making modes, and the ice-making device also corresponds to different refrigeration rates in different ice-making modes.

[0063] The present application provides an implementation method, which can improve the ice making efficiency of the ice making device while ensuring the quality of ice cubes in the ice making device and reducing the risk of abnormal ice making. Exemplarily, before starting the first timing, the ice making control method further includes:

[0064] Obtain the ice-making mode and function mode of the current refrigerator, wherein the ice-making mode is a mode for ice-making, and the function mode is a mode for storage function;

[0065] The first target duration and the second target duration are determined according to the current ice-making mode and function mode of the refrigerator.

[0066] Exemplarily, the ice-making mode of the refrigerator includes at least one of a first ice-making mode, a second ice-making mode and a third ice-making mode, and the ice-making efficiency of the first ice-making mode, the second ice-making mode and the third ice-making mode increases successively; the functional mode of the refrigerator includes at least one of an intelligent mode, an energy-saving mode and a deep-freeze mode.

[0067] For example, the refrigerator is also equipped with a display control device, which is used to receive user instructions and display the current status of the refrigerator. Optionally, the display control device displays several ice-making modes and several functional modes configured for the refrigerator to the user, and the user can select the required ice-making mode and functional mode by interacting with the display control device. Alternatively, the refrigerator can intelligently adjust the ice-making mode and functional mode according to the current actual environmental parameters and internal parameters. For example, the refrigerator can intelligently adjust the ice-making mode and functional mode according to the actual environmental temperature and humidity, storage room temperature and humidity, and parameters of stored food.

[0068] By determining the first target duration and the second target duration according to the current ice-making mode and function mode of the refrigerator, it is possible to realize intelligent selection of the temperature measurement waiting time and ice-leaving delay time of the ice-making device. For example, when the current ice-making mode and function mode of the refrigerator correspond to a higher ice-making rate, a relatively short delay time is determined as the first target duration and / or the second target duration; when the current ice-making mode and function mode of the refrigerator correspond to a lower ice-making rate, a relatively longer delay time is determined as the first target duration and / or the second target duration. In this way, it is possible to avoid the temperature measurement waiting time and / or ice-leaving delay time of the ice-making device being too long, which affects the ice-making efficiency of the ice-making device.

[0069] Regarding how to determine the first target duration and the second target duration, the present application provides an implementation mode, wherein determining the first target duration and the second target duration according to the current ice-making mode and function mode of the refrigerator includes:

[0070] Acquire a mapping relationship collection, the mapping relationship collection including at least one mapping relationship, each mapping relationship including a mapping relationship between a preset ice-making mode and a first preset duration and a second preset duration;

[0071] According to the mapping relationship, determining a first preset time length and a second preset time length corresponding to the ice-making mode of the current refrigerator;

[0072] The first preset time length and / or the second preset time length are adjusted according to the current functional mode of the refrigerator to obtain the first target time length and the second target time length.

[0073] The mapping relationship collection includes, for example, a first set, a second set, and a third set, and also includes a correspondence between elements in the first set and elements in the second set, and a correspondence between elements in the first set and elements in the third set, wherein the elements in the first set are multiple preset ice-making modes, the elements in the second set are multiple first preset durations, and the elements in the third set are multiple second preset durations. The mapping relationship collection is established by a designer according to actual test results, and is pre-entered into the memory of the refrigerator.

[0074] Exemplarily, the ice-making mode of the refrigerator includes the first ice-making mode and the second ice-making mode, and the ice-making efficiency of the refrigerator in the second ice-making mode is higher than the ice-making efficiency in the first ice-making mode; and according to the mapping relationship, determining the first preset time length and the second preset time length corresponding to the ice-making mode of the current refrigerator includes:

[0075] When the ice-making mode of the current refrigerator is the first ice-making mode, the corresponding first preset time length is the first time length value and the second preset time length is the second time length value;

[0076] When the ice-making mode of the current refrigerator is the second ice-making mode, the corresponding first preset time length is the third time length value and the second preset time length is the fourth time length value;

[0077] The third duration value is smaller than the first duration value, and / or the fourth duration value is smaller than the second duration value.

[0078] The first ice-making mode is, for example, a normal ice-making mode of the ice-making device, and the second ice-making mode is, for example, a fast ice-making mode of the ice-making device; in the fast ice-making mode, the refrigerator will increase the refrigeration intensity of the refrigeration compartment, and by improving the refrigeration efficiency of the refrigeration device, the water in the ice tray freezes into ice cubes faster. It is understandable that when the refrigerator is in the second ice-making mode, the ice-making rate of the ice-making device is higher, and the ice-making efficiency of the ice-making device can be improved and the ice-making cycle can be shortened by selecting the first preset time and / or the second preset time with a smaller time value, that is, reducing the temperature measurement waiting time and / or ice separation delay time of the ice-making device.

[0079] Preferably, the sum of the first duration value and the second duration value is greater than the sum of the third duration value and the fourth duration value, that is, the third duration value is less than the first duration value, and / or the fourth duration value is less than the second duration value, indicating that there can be the following three implementation methods: the first is that the third duration value is less than the first duration value, and the fourth duration value is equal to the second duration; the second is that the fourth duration value is less than the second duration, and the third duration value is equal to the first duration value; the third is that the third duration value is less than the first duration value, and the fourth duration value is less than the second duration.

[0080] Exemplarily, the function mode of the refrigerator includes a quick cooling mode and a deep cooling mode, and adjusting the first preset time length and / or the second preset time length according to the current function mode of the refrigerator includes:

[0081] If the function mode of the refrigerator is the quick cooling mode, the first preset time length is reduced to obtain a fifth time length value, and the time length value of the first target time length is determined as the fifth time length value, and / or the second preset time length is reduced to obtain a sixth time length value, and the time length value of the second target time length is determined as the sixth time length value;

[0082] If the function mode of the refrigerator is the deep freezing mode, the first preset time length is reduced to obtain a seventh time length value, and the time length value of the first target time length is determined as the seventh time length value, and / or the second preset time length is reduced to obtain an eighth time length value, and the time length value of the second target time length is determined as the eighth time length value;

[0083] Among them, the seventh duration value is smaller than the fifth duration value, and the eighth duration value is smaller than the sixth duration value.

[0084] It is understandable that when the refrigerator is in the quick cooling or deep freezing function mode, the refrigerator will increase the refrigeration intensity to quickly cool down the freezer compartment, which will also increase the refrigeration intensity in the ice-making device. Therefore, by determining the time value after the first preset time value is reduced as the first target time value, and / or determining the time value after the second preset time value is reduced as the second target time value, the temperature measurement waiting time and / or ice separation delay time of the ice-making device can be further reduced to improve the ice-making efficiency of the ice-making device and shorten the ice-making cycle. In addition, in the deep freezing mode, the refrigerator needs to keep the freezer compartment at an extremely low temperature for a long time, so that the impact on the ice-making device is more obvious. Therefore, the first preset time value can be adjusted to a relatively lower first target time value, and / or the second preset time value can be adjusted to a relatively lower second target time value.

[0085] Among them, reducing the first preset duration to obtain the fifth duration value may be to subtract the preset fixed duration value from the duration value of the first preset duration to obtain the fifth duration value, or to multiply the duration value of the first preset duration by a preset coefficient to obtain the fifth duration value, or other calculation methods may be used. Similarly, the second preset duration to obtain the sixth duration value, reducing the second preset duration to obtain the eighth duration value, and reducing the first preset duration to obtain the seventh duration value may also be calculated using the aforementioned calculation methods, which are not specifically limited here.

[0086] Optionally, the function mode of the refrigerator also includes an intelligent mode. When the function mode of the refrigerator is the intelligent mode, the first preset duration and the second preset duration are not adjusted, that is, the first preset duration is determined as the first target duration, and the second preset duration is determined as the second target duration. In some other embodiments, the function mode of the refrigerator also includes an energy-saving mode. Adjusting the first preset duration and / or the second preset duration according to the current function mode of the refrigerator also includes: if the function mode of the refrigerator is the energy-saving mode, increasing the first preset duration to obtain a ninth duration value, and determining the duration value of the first target duration as the ninth duration value, and / or increasing the second preset duration to obtain a tenth duration value, and determining the duration value of the second target duration as the tenth duration value.

[0087] Wherein, increasing the first preset duration to obtain the ninth duration value may be to add the duration value of the first preset duration to the preset fixed duration value to obtain the ninth duration value, or to multiply the duration value of the first preset duration by a preset coefficient to obtain the ninth duration value, or other calculation methods may be used. As for increasing the second preset duration to obtain the tenth duration value, the aforementioned calculation method may also be used.

[0088] Regarding how to determine the first target duration and the second target duration, the present application also provides another implementation mode, wherein determining the first target duration and the second target duration according to the current ice-making mode and function mode of the refrigerator includes:

[0089] Obtain a mapping relationship table, the mapping relationship table including at least one mapping relationship, each mapping relationship including a mapping relationship between a preset ice-making mode, a preset function mode, a first preset duration, and a second preset duration;

[0090] Determine, according to at least one mapping relationship in the mapping relationship table, a first preset time length and a second preset time length corresponding to the ice making mode and the function mode of the current refrigerator;

[0091] The first preset duration is determined as the first target duration, and the second preset duration is determined as the second target duration.

[0092] It can be understood that based on the mapping relationship table, the first target duration and the second target duration are directly determined according to the current ice-making mode and function mode. For the mapping relationship table, for example, it includes the first set, the second set and the third set, and also includes the correspondence between the elements in the first set and the elements in the second set, and the correspondence between the elements in the first set and the elements in the third set. The elements in the first set are multiple combinations of several preset ice-making modes and several preset function modes, such as the combination of fast ice-making mode and intelligent mode, the combination of ordinary ice-making mode and deep freezing mode, etc.; the elements in the second set are multiple first preset durations; the elements in the third set are multiple second preset durations. The mapping relationship table is established by the designer according to the actual test experimental results, for example, and is pre-entered into the memory of the refrigerator.

[0093] The ice-making control method provided in the embodiment of the present application can avoid false triggering of the ice-leaving operation of the ice-making device by delaying the start of water temperature detection after the ice-making device is filled with water, and delaying the execution of the ice-leaving operation after the water temperature reaches a preset temperature threshold, and ice-leaving is performed only after the water in the ice tray is completely frozen. In this way, unfrozen water can be prevented from entering the ice storage box, causing the stored ice to freeze together and causing difficulty in ice discharging or even damage to the ice-discharging component. The ice-making control method of the present application can ensure the quality of ice cubes in the ice-making device and reduce the risk of abnormal ice making.

[0094] The present application also provides an ice making control device, which is applied to a refrigerator. The refrigerator includes an ice making device, and the ice making device includes an ice making tray. For example, see Figure 2 , Figure 2 The ice making control device 200 includes a first timing module 210 , an acquisition module 220 , a second timing module 230 and a control module 240 .

[0095] Among them, the first timing module 210 is used to start the first timing when the ice-making device is filled with water; the acquisition module 220 is used to obtain the temperature of the ice-making tray when the first timing duration reaches the first target duration; the second timing module 230 is used to start the second timing when the temperature of the ice-making tray is lower than the preset temperature threshold; the control module 240 is used to control the ice-making tray to separate from the ice when the second timing duration reaches the second target duration.

[0096] The ice-making control device 200 provided in the embodiment of the present application can avoid false triggering of the ice-leaving operation of the ice-making device by delaying the start of water temperature detection after the ice-making device is filled with water, and delaying the execution of the ice-leaving operation after the water temperature reaches a preset temperature threshold, and ice-leaving is performed only after the water in the ice tray is completely frozen. In this way, unfrozen water can be prevented from entering the ice storage box, causing the stored ice to freeze together and causing difficulty in ice discharging or even damage to the ice-discharging component.
