[0021] After washing clothes in a washing machine, users often forget to take clothes out of the washing tub in time, resulting in clothes being left behind. It is normal for clothes to be left behind in the washing tub for a short period of time. If clothes are left behind for too long, bacteria may grow on the clothes, causing the clothes to produce odor. Washing machines in the prior art usually do not have a special mechanism to remind users when clothes will start to stink. Users need to rely on their sense of smell and experience to judge, which affects the normal use of clothes and leads to a poor user experience.

[0022] Studies have shown that the growth of bacteria is greatly affected by temperature and humidity. The present invention provides a method, device, washing machine and storage medium for preventing clothes from generating odors. The method monitors the temperature and humidity in a washing tub and predicts the time when the clothes retained in the washing tub will generate odors based on the temperature and humidity in the washing tub using a pre-trained odor generation prediction model. The method also reminds the user or sterilizes the clothes based on the remaining time from the current time to the time when the odor is generated. This method can effectively prevent the clothes retained in the washing tub from generating odors, avoid affecting the user's wearing of the clothes due to the generation of odors, and improve the user's experience.

[0023] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention, rather than to limit the present invention. It should also be noted that, for ease of description, only parts related to the present invention, rather than all structures, are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for preventing clothing from generating odors provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The method can be performed by a device for preventing clothing from generating odors provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The device can be implemented in software and / or hardware. In a specific embodiment, the device can be integrated in a washing machine. The following embodiments will be described by taking the device integrated in a washing machine as an example. Figure 1 , the method may specifically include the following steps:

[0025] Step 101, real-time monitoring of the temperature and humidity in the washing tub where the clothes are trapped obtains the current temperature and humidity information of the trapped clothes. This step can be used to predict the time when the trapped clothes will generate odors based on the current temperature and humidity information using the odor generation prediction model.

[0026] Specifically, a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor may be used to respectively monitor the temperature and humidity in the washing tub in real time.

[0027] Specifically, the current retained temperature and humidity information may include real-time monitoring values ​​of the temperature and humidity in the washing tub from the time when the temperature and humidity monitoring is started to the current time.

[0028] Step 102, predict the time when the retained clothing will generate odor using the pre-trained odor generation prediction model according to the current retained temperature and humidity information, and calculate the remaining time from the current moment to the retained clothing generating odor to obtain the remaining odor generation time. This step can predict the time when the retained clothing will generate odor, so as to remind the user or sterilize the clothing, thereby preventing the retained clothing from eventually generating odor.

[0029] Specifically, the process of predicting the time when retained clothing produces odor based on the current retained temperature and humidity information using a pre-trained odor generation prediction model includes: preprocessing the current retained temperature and humidity information and performing feature extraction on the preprocessed temperature and humidity information to obtain current temperature and humidity features, using the current temperature and humidity features as input to the odor generation prediction model, and using the odor generation prediction model to predict and output the time when the retained clothing produces odor.

[0030] Specifically, the process of preprocessing the current retention temperature and humidity information includes removing abnormal values, processing missing values, and performing data standardization on the temperature values ​​and humidity values ​​included in the current retention temperature and humidity information.

[0031] Optionally, the process of predicting the time when the retained clothing will produce odor using a pre-trained odor generation prediction model based on the current retained temperature and humidity information includes: every fifth preset time period, using the odor generation prediction model to predict and update the time when the retained clothing will produce odor.

[0032] Specifically, after each time the time for the odor to be generated by the clothes is completed, the remaining time for the odor to be generated is recalculated.

[0033] Optionally, the odor generation prediction model mentioned above can be a linear regression model with good interpretability and stability.

[0034] Optionally, the training process of the above-mentioned odor generation prediction model may include: sample data collection, sample data preprocessing, sample data feature extraction, sample data training set and test set division, model training, model evaluation and model optimization.

[0035] Specifically, the model training process may include: obtaining the sample time required for multiple sample clothes to produce odor under sample temperature and humidity; extracting features from the sample temperature and humidity to obtain sample temperature and humidity features, using the sample temperature and humidity features as the input of the odor generation training model to be trained, and using the corresponding sample time to guide the output of the odor generation prediction model to be trained, and training the odor generation prediction model to be trained to obtain the odor generation prediction model.

[0036] Step 103, based on the remaining time of the odor generation and the preset time threshold, the user is reminded that the retained clothes generate odor or the retained clothes are sterilized. This step is based on steps 101 and 102. By monitoring the temperature and humidity in the washing tub and predicting the time when the clothes retained in the washing tub will generate odor based on the temperature and humidity in the washing tub, using a pre-trained odor generation prediction model, and reminding the user or sterilizing the clothes based on the remaining time from the current time to the time when the odor is generated, it can effectively prevent the clothes retained in the washing tub from generating odor, avoid the retained clothes from affecting the user's wearing due to the generation of odor, and improve the user's experience.

[0037] Specifically, the reminder of the odor generated by the retained clothing may be issued by the washing machine, or may be issued by a client corresponding to the washing machine.

[0038] Specifically, the reminder of the retained clothing generating odor may include the time when the retained clothing generates the odor.

[0039] Optionally, after the above sterilization process is completed, information corresponding to the sterilization process is sent to the user. The sterilization process information may include information such as the sterilization method and the sterilization time.

[0040] The following further describes the method for preventing clothing from generating odor provided by the embodiments of the present invention. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 1 Step 103 in the method may include the following steps:

[0041] Step 1031, determining whether the remaining time for odor generation is less than the first preset time length, the second preset time length, and / or the third preset time length.

[0042] Specifically, the first preset time length can be set to 4-6 hours, the second preset time length can be set to 2-3 hours, and the third preset time length can be set to 0.5-1 hour.

[0043] Step 1032: if the remaining time for the odor to be generated is less than the first preset time, a weak alarm reminder that the clothes left behind produce odor is issued to the user; if the remaining time for the odor to be generated is less than the second preset time, a strong alarm reminder that the clothes left behind produce odor is issued to the user; if the remaining time for the odor to be generated is less than the third preset time, the clothes left behind are sterilized; the first preset time is greater than the second preset time, and the second preset time is greater than the third preset time.

[0044] Specifically, the weak alarm reminder may be provided by sending information including the remaining time for the odor to remain in the clothes to the corresponding client.

[0045] Specifically, the strong alarm reminder may include a pop-up reminder through a corresponding client and a reminder by controlling the washing machine buzzer to emit an alarm tone.

[0046] Optionally, firstly, it is determined whether the remaining time for the odor to be generated is less than a first preset time, and if not, no processing is performed;

[0047] If it is less than, it is determined whether the remaining time for the odor to be generated is less than the second preset time. If it is not less than, a weak alarm is issued to the user to remind the user that the clothes have odor.

[0048] If it is less than, it is determined whether the remaining time for the odor to be generated is less than the third preset time. If it is not less than, a strong alarm is issued to the user to remind the user that the clothes have odor.

[0049] If it is less than, the retained clothing will be sterilized.

[0050] Optionally, if the remaining time for odor generation is greater than the third preset time and less than the second preset time, it is determined whether the current time is night time. If it is night time, the retained clothing is directly sterilized.

[0051] The embodiments of the present invention can prevent the generation of odor in retained clothing according to the urgency of the remaining time of the odor generation, and take preventive measures including weak reminders, strong reminders and automatic sterilization lamps of different intensities to the user, thereby effectively preventing the generation of odor in clothing and avoiding excessive consumption and waste of resources.

[0052] The following further describes the method for preventing clothing from generating odor provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, the following steps may be included:

[0053] Step 301, determining whether clothes are trapped in the washing tub.

[0054] In an optional specific embodiment of the present invention, the above-mentioned determination of whether clothes are retained in the washing tub includes:

[0055] within a fourth preset time period after the washing machine completes the step of washing the clothes, determining whether the door lock of the washing machine is opened;

[0056] If the door lock of the washing machine is not opened, it is determined that clothes are trapped in the washing tub;

[0057] If the door lock of the washing machine is opened, the washing tub is weighed to obtain the weight of the washing tub. If the weight in the washing tub is greater than the empty tub weight, it is determined that clothes are retained in the washing tub; otherwise, it is determined that clothes are not retained in the washing tub.

[0058] Specifically, when the washing machine completes the washing process, if the door lock is not opened, the clothes must be left in the washing tub, so there is no need to weigh them, which can help save relevant resources. If the door lock is opened, it is possible that all the clothes are taken out, some of the clothes are taken out, or none of the clothes are taken out. At this time, the washing tub needs to be weighed. If there are clothes left, the weight of the washing tub must be greater than the weight of the empty tub.

[0059] Optionally, if the washing machine door lock is opened but the washing program has not been entered, the washing tub is weighed to obtain the weight of the washing tub. If the weight in the washing tub is greater than the weight of the empty tub, it is determined that clothes are retained in the washing tub; otherwise, it is determined that no clothes are retained in the washing tub.

[0060] Step 302: Real-time monitoring of the temperature and humidity in the washing tub where the clothes are retained is performed to obtain current retention temperature and humidity information of the retained clothes.

[0061] Step 303, predicting the time for the retained clothing to generate odor using a pre-trained odor generation prediction model according to the current retained temperature and humidity information, and calculating the remaining time from the current moment to the retained clothing generating odor to obtain the remaining odor generation time.

[0062] Step 304, based on the remaining time of the odor generation and a preset time threshold, a reminder is issued to the user that the retained clothing is generating odor or the retained clothing is sterilized.

[0063] Step 305, restarting the execution to determine whether clothes are trapped in the washing tub, until there are no clothes trapped in the washing tub. This step can ensure that as long as the trapped clothes in the washing tub are not taken out, the method for preventing clothes from generating odor is always executed, thereby effectively ensuring that the clothes will not generate odor.

[0064] The embodiment of the present invention can accurately and practically determine whether there are clothes remaining in the washing tub of the washing machine, thereby timely and effectively performing the method for preventing clothes from generating odor in the embodiment of the present invention on the clothes in the washing tub.

[0065] The following further describes the method for preventing clothing from generating odor provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the following steps may be included:

[0066] Step 401, real-time monitoring of the temperature and humidity in the washing tub where the clothes are retained to obtain current retention temperature and humidity information of the retained clothes.

[0067] Step 402, obtaining material information of the retained clothing.

[0068] Specifically, the material information of the retained clothing may be obtained through a clothing material obtaining device provided in the washing machine, for example, a device capable of identifying the material of clothing based on clothing images.

[0069] Step 403, based on the current retention temperature and humidity information and the material information of the retained clothing, a pre-trained odor generation prediction model is used to predict the time when the retained clothing generates odor, and the remaining time from the current moment to the retention clothing generating odor is calculated to obtain the remaining odor generation time.

[0070] Specifically, clothes made of different materials take different amounts of time to produce odor under the same temperature and humidity conditions. Obtaining and predicting the amount of time that clothes will remain to produce odor based on the material information of the clothes can improve the accuracy of predicting the amount of time that clothes will remain to produce odor.

[0071] Step 404, based on the remaining time of the odor generation and a preset time threshold, a reminder is issued to the user that the retained clothing is generating odor or the retained clothing is sterilized.

[0072] In an optional specific embodiment of the present invention, the process of sterilizing the retained clothing may include: determining a suitable sterilization method according to material information of the retained clothing, and sterilizing the retained clothing using the suitable sterilization method.

[0073] Specifically, the above sterilization methods include high temperature sterilization, pasteurization, ozone sterilization, and silver ion sterilization. Different sterilization treatment methods are applicable to clothes made of different materials, and inappropriate sterilization treatment methods may cause damage to the retained clothes. Therefore, it is necessary to first obtain the material of the retained clothes, and then select the appropriate sterilization method according to the material to sterilize the retained clothes.

[0074] The embodiments of the present invention can improve the accuracy of predicting the time when the retained clothing produces odor according to the material of the retained clothing, and can effectively sterilize the retained clothing according to the material of the retained clothing while avoiding damage to the clothing.

It is helpful to use the odor generation prediction model to predict the time when the retained clothes will generate odor according to the current retention temperature and humidity information.

[0077] The module 502 for obtaining the remaining time for odor generation is used to predict the time for the retained clothing to generate odor using the pre-trained odor generation prediction model according to the current retained temperature and humidity information, and calculate the remaining time from the current moment to the retained clothing generating odor to obtain the remaining time for odor generation. The time when the retained clothing is about to generate odor can be predicted, so as to help remind the user or sterilize the clothing, thereby preventing the retained clothing from eventually generating odor.

[0078] The reminder or sterilization module 503 is used to remind the user that the clothes left behind have odors or sterilize the clothes left behind according to the remaining time of the odor generation and the preset time threshold. It can be combined with modules 501 and 502, and the clothes left behind in the washing tub are predicted to have odors based on the temperature and humidity in the washing tub by using the pre-trained odor generation prediction model, and the remaining time from the current time to the odor generation time, and the user is reminded or the clothes are sterilized, which can effectively prevent the clothes left behind in the washing tub from generating odors, avoid the odors of the clothes left behind affecting the user's wearing, and improve the user's experience.

[0079] Optionally, the above-mentioned reminder or sterilization module 503 can be specifically used to issue a weak alarm reminder to the user that the clothes left behind produce odor if the remaining time of odor generation is less than a first preset time; issue a strong alarm reminder to the user that the clothes left behind produce odor if the remaining time of odor generation is less than a second preset time; and sterilize the clothes left behind if the remaining time of odor generation is less than a third preset time.

[0080] Optionally, the device for preventing clothes from generating odors of the present invention further includes: a retention judgment module for judging whether clothes are retained in the washing tub before real-time monitoring of the temperature and humidity in the washing tub where clothes are retained to obtain current retention temperature and humidity information of the retained clothes.

[0081] Optionally, the above-mentioned retention judgment module can be specifically used to judge whether the door lock of the washing machine is opened within a fourth preset time period after the washing machine completes the step of washing clothes; if the door lock of the washing machine is not opened, it is judged that clothes are retained in the washing tub; if the door lock of the washing machine is opened, the washing tub is weighed to obtain the weight of the washing tub, and if the weight in the washing tub is greater than the weight of the empty tub, it is judged that clothes are retained in the washing tub, otherwise it is judged that clothes are not retained in the washing tub.

[0082] Optionally, the above-mentioned retention judgment module can also be specifically used to, after sterilizing the retained clothes, restart the execution to judge whether clothes are retained in the washing tub until no clothes are retained in the washing tub.

[0083] In an optional specific embodiment of the present invention, the method for preventing clothing from generating odors also includes: a material acquisition module for acquiring material information of retained clothing before predicting the time when retained clothing generates odors using a pre-trained odor generation prediction model based on current retained temperature and humidity information.

[0084] Optionally, the aforementioned odor generation remaining time acquisition module 502 can also be specifically used to predict the time for the retained clothing to generate odor based on the current retained temperature and humidity information and the material information of the retained clothing using a pre-trained odor generation prediction model.

[0085] Optionally, the aforementioned reminder or sterilization module 503 can also be specifically used to determine a suitable sterilization method according to the material information of the retained clothing, and sterilize the retained clothing using the suitable sterilization method.
