In addition, those skilled in the art can combine and combine different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of different embodiments or examples, unless they are contradictory.

[0049] After the ice maker is powered on for the first time, or when the user turns the ice-making function from off to on via the display panel, it must first find its correct initial position. It then uses this initial position as a reference to perform a series of actions, such as ice detection and ice turning. This process of finding the correct initial position is called ice maker initialization. However, existing ice makers have low initialization positioning accuracy.

[0050] The present invention provides an ice maker and its control method, control device and storage medium to solve the problem of low initialization positioning accuracy of existing ice makers. Figure 1-7 Provide explanation.

[0051] The control method of the ice maker provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the ice maker, which includes an ice turning rod and an ice detection rod. The ice turning rod is used to control the rotation of the ice maker, the ice detection rod is used to detect whether the ice maker is full of ice during the ice making process, and the ice scraping rod is used to remove the ice from the ice maker after it is full of ice. For example, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for controlling an ice maker according to an embodiment of the present application.

[0052] refer to Figure 1 As shown, the control method of the ice maker may include:

[0053] S101: In response to a preset signal, controlling the ice maker to perform a preset action;

[0054] S102: Acquire an ice turning signal corresponding to the ice turning rod and an ice detection signal corresponding to the ice detection rod;

[0055] S103: Initializing the positioning of the ice maker based on the ice turning signal and / or the ice detection signal.

[0056] In this embodiment, after receiving a specific preset signal, the ice maker activates its internal control program, and the control system issues instructions to drive the ice maker's rotating components to begin the predetermined rotational motion. During the rotation process, the ice maker uses sensors to accurately capture the ice-turning signal generated by the ice-turning rod and the ice-detection signal generated by the ice-detection rod. The ice-turning signal and ice-detection signal respectively reflect the position and status information of the ice maker during the ice-turning and ice-detection processes, and the signals exhibit high and low level fluctuations. The ice maker control system analyzes and processes the acquired ice-turning and ice-detection signals to determine the ice maker's exact position. By determining the high and low level fluctuations of the signals, the ice maker gradually adjusts its position until it reaches the preset initial position, providing a stable foundation for subsequent ice-making operations.

[0057] Through precise analysis of ice turning signals and ice detection signals, high-precision positioning of the ice maker can be achieved, avoiding uneven ice making and inefficiency caused by position errors, reducing mechanical wear and failure risks caused by position errors, improving the overall reliability and stability of the system, and providing strong guarantees for the efficient and stable operation of the ice maker.

[0058] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the overall control process of the ice maker is as follows Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the position status diagram of the ice maker after initialization is completed is as follows Figure 5 As shown in the figure. After initialization, the ice maker will first perform an ice detection. If the ice maker is not full of ice, it will start the ice separation process, using ice scrapers to remove ice cubes. After this process is complete, water will be added. When the temperature and time reach the target, the ice detection will be repeated. If the ice maker is full of ice after the detection, it will enter the full ice state. After a period of time after the full ice state, the ice detection will be repeated, and this cycle will continue.

[0059] In an alternative embodiment, reference Figure 4 As shown, before controlling the ice maker to perform a preset action, the control method further includes: obtaining temperature information of the ice maker; when the temperature information is greater than a preset temperature, executing the step of controlling the ice maker to perform a preset action; when the temperature information is less than or equal to the preset temperature, turning on the heater of the ice maker for heating until the temperature information is greater than the preset temperature.

[0060] Understandably, the ice maker must first determine the temperature because its previous state is uncertain. If the user turns off the ice maker while it's filling, and then turns it back on again some time later, the water in the ice tray may freeze due to the low temperature, preventing the ice maker from rotating properly due to the ice.

[0061] In this embodiment, after the ice maker is started, it first obtains the current temperature information through the built-in temperature sensor to determine whether there is any ice inside the ice maker. If the temperature sensor reading is above a preset temperature (e.g., 2°C, 3°C, or 4°C), it indicates that the water inside the ice maker has not frozen into ice cubes and the ice maker can rotate normally. If the temperature of the ice maker is below the preset temperature, it indicates that there may be ice inside the ice maker. At this time, the ice maker's heater is started to heat the interior until the temperature sensor reading reaches above the preset temperature. During the heating process, the temperature information is continuously monitored to ensure the heating effect. Once the temperature reaches above the preset temperature, the heating is stopped and the ice maker is controlled to rotate. At this point, even if there is ice in the ice tray, it will melt due to the heating and will not block the rotation of the ice maker, ensuring that the ice maker can rotate normally and reach the correct position.

[0062] Through temperature judgment and heating treatment, the ice maker is effectively prevented from being unable to rotate normally due to ice obstruction, avoiding damage to the ice maker components caused by forced rotation under ice obstruction, ensuring that the ice maker can smoothly reach the correct initialization position and perform subsequent ice-making operations.

[0063] In an optional embodiment, controlling the ice maker to perform a preset action includes: controlling the ice maker to rotate in a first direction, where the first direction is the same as the rotation direction of the ice maker when it is releasing ice.

[0064] After receiving the control command, the ice maker begins rotating in a first direction. This first direction is the same as the direction the ice maker rotates during the ice-removing process—that is, the reverse direction. This reverse rotation ensures that the ice scrapers can smoothly scrape ice from the ice tray without getting stuck due to ice. During the initialization process, the ice maker is explicitly prohibited from rotating forward. If the ice maker rotates forward, the ice scrapers may rotate below the horizontal position. If there is still ice in the ice tray, the ice scrapers can easily get stuck, causing initialization failure or damage to the ice maker.

[0065] By controlling the ice maker to rotate only in the first direction (the ice-away direction), the ice scraper claws are effectively prevented from being stuck by ice cubes below the water level, thereby enhancing the stability of the ice maker during the initialization process.

[0066] Figure 3This is the timing diagram of the ice maker in the empty ice and full ice states. The filled part in the figure represents a high level, and the blank part represents a low level. The position of the ice scraper claw of the ice maker at a preset angle (for example, 270°) is defined as the initial position of the ice maker. The working principle of the ice maker is a stepper motor, which can reverse and forward. When the ice maker leaves the ice, it is reversed, and the corresponding timing diagram is an angle increase. During the rotation of the ice maker, the ice turning rod and the ice detection rod will move at the same time. When the ice maker is empty ice or full ice, the ice turning rod corresponds to the ice turning signal and the ice detection rod corresponds to the ice detection signal. The ice turning signal and the ice detection signal can be collected by the Hall sensor, and the timing diagram of the corresponding level change as the ice maker rotates is shown as follows. Figure 3 As shown, the ice maker ultimately determines the rotation position through the ice turning signal and the ice detection signal.

[0067] In an optional embodiment, the ice maker is initialized and positioned based on the ice turning signal and / or ice detection signal, including: when the ice turning signal is at a first level (e.g., a low level), the angle of the ice maker is Figure 3 The position corresponding to the arrow on the left side of the figure controls the ice maker to rotate in the second direction (the second direction is opposite to the rotation direction of the ice maker when separating ice, that is, the second direction is opposite to the first direction); when the ice-turning signal switches to the second level (for example, a high level), the ice maker is controlled to stop rotating, and the position of the ice maker at this time is used as the initial position (that is, the position corresponding to 270° in the figure).

[0068] Optionally, the first level is one of a high level and a low level, and the second level is the other of the high level and the low level.

[0069] In an optional embodiment, the ice maker is initialized and positioned based on the ice turning signal and / or the ice detection signal, including: when the ice turning signal and the ice detection signal are both at the second level, the angle of the ice maker is Figure 3 The position corresponding to the arrow on the right side of the control unit controls the ice maker to rotate in the second direction, which is opposite to the rotation direction of the ice maker when it is separating ice; when it is detected that the ice-turning signal switches to the first level, the ice maker is controlled to continue rotating; when it is detected that the ice-turning signal switches to the second level, the ice maker is controlled to stop rotating, and the position of the ice maker at this time is used as the initial position (i.e., the position corresponding to 270° in the figure).

[0070] In an optional embodiment, the control method further includes: within a preset period of time or after the ice maker rotates one circle, if it is detected that the ice detection signal is always at the first level, it indicates that the ice maker is full of ice, and the ice maker is controlled to stop rotating.

[0071] After stopping rotation, the ice maker can be controlled to rotate in a second direction (opposite to the first direction), and based on the change of the ice turning signal, the initial position of the ice maker is determined when the ice turning signal just switches to the second level in the above embodiment.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, before responding to the preset signal, the control method further includes: generating a preset signal after detecting that the ice maker is powered on, or after detecting that the ice making function of the ice maker is turned on.

[0073] For example, whether to generate a preset signal can be determined by real-time monitoring of the ice maker's power status or by monitoring whether the ice maker's ice making function is enabled. If the ice maker is detected to be powered on or the ice making function is enabled, a preset signal is generated. This ensures that the initialization process is automatically triggered when the ice maker is powered on or the ice making function is enabled, eliminating the need for manual intervention and improving the automation level of the ice maker.
