Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of refrigerators, and in particular to a refrigerator controlled with reference to weather and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In the smart home appliance sector, smart refrigerators, as key devices in daily household life, not only perform basic cooling functions but also integrate a variety of intelligent features to meet users' needs for efficient food preservation and energy conservation. Advances in weather forecasting technology have enabled more accurate and timely access to environmental information, while the proliferation of IoT technology has facilitated data interconnection and sharing between devices. These developments have collectively driven the evolution of smart refrigerators towards greater intelligence, requiring them to dynamically optimize internal parameters based on external environmental information to enhance food preservation and user experience.

[0003] A common approach in related technologies is to use built-in temperature and humidity sensors to detect environmental parameters and, in conjunction with a microprocessor, adjust the internal temperature and humidity. Furthermore, networking modules are used to obtain external information such as time and date to enhance the device's interactive functionality. These measures provide users with a basic intelligent experience, such as displaying real-time data or news content.

[0004] However, the above solution has significant shortcomings in information acquisition: over-reliance on built-in sensors limits information accuracy. Damage or inaccuracy can directly impact the control effectiveness. Furthermore, sensors can only capture the current environmental state and cannot predict future changes. This makes it difficult to achieve optimal refrigeration and freshness control in environments with drastic temperature or humidity fluctuations. These issues urgently need to be addressed to improve the device's adaptability in dynamic environments. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present application provides a refrigerator controlled with reference to weather and a control method thereof, so as to solve the problem of poor adaptability of refrigerators in dynamic environments.

[0006] A first aspect of the present application provides a refrigerator controlled by reference to weather, comprising:

[0007] An internet communication module is configured to connect to an Internet meteorological data source and obtain weather forecast information for a target area for a specified period of time in the future;

[0008] an information processing module, communicatively connected to the network communication module, configured to parse the temperature, humidity, and meteorological event data in the weather forecast information and generate refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the parsing results;

[0009] an environmental adjustment actuator, connected to the information processing module, and configured to dynamically adjust the refrigerator compartment temperature setting value, the freezer compartment temperature setting value, and the humidity parameter inside the cabinet in response to the refrigerator parameter control instruction;

[0010] The multimodal output interface is connected to the information processing module and is configured to synchronously convert the parsed weather forecast information into at least two output forms: voice signals, mobile terminal graphic and text push data, and local display screen image data.

[0011] The refrigerator obtains future weather forecast information for the target area through the Internet, analyzes temperature, humidity and meteorological event data and generates control instructions, dynamically adjusts the temperature of the refrigerator and freezer compartments and the humidity parameters of the cabinet, and converts weather information into multiple output forms such as voice, text and images, thereby alleviating the refrigerator's lack of adaptability in dynamic environments, improving the timeliness of environmental parameter adjustment and the convenience of user information acquisition.

[0012] Optionally, the networking communication module includes a WIFI chipset and a data verification unit, wherein the WIFI chipset is connected to the central meteorological server via the TCP / IP protocol, and the data verification unit performs integrity verification on the received weather forecast information and filters invalid data packets to ensure that the data input into the information processing module meets a preset reliability threshold.

[0013] The networking communication module connects to the central meteorological server through the WIFI chipset based on the TCP / IP protocol, and uses the data verification unit to perform integrity verification and invalid data packet filtering on the received weather forecast information, thereby improving the data reliability of the input information processing module and reducing the possibility of control deviation due to data errors or omissions.

[0014] Optionally, the information processing module includes a program decision engine, which inputs the 24-hour temperature change curve, humidity percentage and precipitation probability data in the weather forecast information into a pre-trained classification model to output a corresponding refrigeration program code, and the program code includes a dehumidification mode for a high-humidity environment, an energy-saving refrigeration mode for a high-temperature environment, and a constant temperature preservation mode for a low-temperature environment.

[0015] The information processing module inputs the temperature change curve, humidity and precipitation probability data in the weather forecast into the pre-trained classification model through the program decision engine, and outputs the corresponding refrigeration program code, including the dehumidification mode for high-humidity environment, the energy-saving refrigeration mode for high-temperature environment and the constant temperature preservation mode for low-temperature environment, thereby optimizing the refrigerator operation strategy, improving the adaptability to different meteorological conditions, and enhancing energy efficiency and preservation effects.

[0016] Optionally, the environmental conditioning actuator is composed of a temperature control subsystem and a humidity control subsystem. The temperature control subsystem adjusts the compressor power and the damper opening to achieve temperature control with an accuracy of ±0.5 degrees Celsius; the humidity control subsystem maintains the humidity in the box within a preset range of 45%-65% through the coordinated operation of a semiconductor dehumidification component and a misting humidification component.

[0017] The environmental conditioning actuator adjusts the compressor power and damper opening through the temperature control subsystem to achieve temperature control with an accuracy of ±0.5 degrees Celsius. At the same time, the humidity control subsystem cooperates with the semiconductor dehumidification component and the atomization humidification component to maintain the humidity in the box within the preset range of 45%-65%, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature and humidity regulation and improving the stability of the food storage environment.

[0018] Optionally, the multimodal output interface integrates a speech synthesis chip, a Bluetooth transmission module and an HDMI driving circuit. The speech synthesis chip converts weather warning information in text format into an analog sound wave signal. The Bluetooth transmission module pushes a JSON data packet containing a temperature trend chart to the bound mobile terminal. The HDMI driving circuit generates a dynamic weather cloud map interface suitable for touch screen display.

[0019] The multimodal output interface converts weather warning information into analog sound wave signals through an integrated speech synthesis chip, uses a Bluetooth transmission module to push a JSON data packet containing a temperature trend chart to a mobile terminal, and uses an HDMI driver circuit to generate a dynamic weather cloud map interface adapted to the touch screen, thereby expanding the information output method and improving the user's convenience in obtaining weather data and the interactive experience.

[0020] Optionally, the program decision engine has a built-in priority arbitration mechanism. When a high temperature warning and a high humidity warning are detected at the same time, the high humidity environment dehumidification mode is started first and the execution of the high temperature refrigeration instruction is delayed until the humidity in the cabinet drops below the safety threshold. The priority arbitration mechanism triggers mode switching by real-time monitoring of the humidity sensor feedback data.

[0021] The program decision engine uses a built-in priority arbitration mechanism to prioritize the dehumidification mode and suspend the high-temperature refrigeration command when high temperature warning and high humidity warning are detected at the same time. It dynamically triggers mode switching based on the feedback data from the humidity sensor, thereby optimizing the operating logic, reducing temperature and humidity adjustment conflicts, and improving the coordination and reliability of refrigerator operation under extreme weather conditions.

[0022] A second aspect of the present application provides a refrigerator control method based on weather control, which is applied to the refrigerator based on weather control described in the first aspect. The method comprises:

[0023] Establish a connection between the network communication module and the Internet meteorological data source, and obtain weather forecast information for the target area in the future specified period;

[0024] transmitting the weather forecast information to an information processing module;

[0025] The information processing module analyzes the temperature, humidity and meteorological event data in the weather forecast information and generates refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the analysis results;

[0026] transmitting the refrigerator parameter control instruction to the environment adjustment actuator;

[0027] The environmental adjustment actuator dynamically adjusts the refrigerator compartment temperature setting value, the freezer compartment temperature setting value and the humidity parameter inside the cabinet in response to the refrigerator parameter control instruction;

[0028] The multimodal output interface synchronously converts the parsed weather forecast information into at least two output forms: voice signal, mobile terminal graphic push data and local display screen image data.

[0029] The control method obtains weather forecast information for the target area through the Internet and analyzes temperature, humidity and meteorological event data to generate refrigerator parameter control instructions to dynamically adjust the temperature of the refrigerator and freezer compartments and the humidity parameters of the cabinet. At the same time, the weather information is converted into multiple output forms, thereby enhancing the refrigerator's adaptability to dynamic environments, optimizing the timeliness of storage environment adjustment, and improving the user's convenience in obtaining weather information.

[0030] Optionally, the step of the information processing module parsing the temperature, humidity and meteorological event data in the weather forecast information and generating refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the parsing results includes:

[0031] The program decision engine in the information processing module inputs the 24-hour temperature change curve, humidity percentage and precipitation probability data in the weather forecast information into a pre-trained classification model to output a corresponding cooling program code;

[0032] The program code includes a high humidity environment dehumidification mode, a high temperature environment energy-saving refrigeration mode and a low temperature environment constant temperature preservation mode.

[0033] The temperature change curve, humidity and precipitation probability data in the weather forecast are input into the pre-trained classification model through the program decision engine, and refrigeration program codes suitable for different environmental conditions are output, including high-humidity dehumidification mode, high-temperature energy-saving refrigeration mode and low-temperature constant temperature preservation mode, thereby optimizing the refrigerator operating parameter configuration, improving the response accuracy to meteorological changes, and enhancing energy efficiency management and food preservation effects.

[0034] Optionally, the step of generating refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the analysis results further includes:

[0035] When it is detected that the probability of precipitation in the next three hours is greater than 70% and the relative humidity is continuously higher than 65%, the humidity control weight coefficient is increased to the highest level to generate a forced dehumidification instruction; the forced dehumidification instruction is used to lower the temperature set point of the cold storage room by 2 degrees Celsius to 3 degrees Celsius, and at the same time extend the operation time of the dehumidification module by at least 40 minutes to cope with the sudden change in humidity.

[0036] When a high probability of precipitation and continued high humidity are detected within the next three hours, a forced dehumidification instruction is generated by increasing the humidity control weight coefficient, adjusting the temperature setting value of the refrigerator compartment and extending the operating time of the dehumidification module, thereby enhancing the ability to respond to sudden high-humidity environments, improving the humidity regulation effect inside the box, and maintaining the stability of the food storage environment.

[0037] Optionally, the method further includes: an early warning enhancement mechanism;

[0038] If the weather forecast includes a red alert for heavy rain, frost, or high temperatures, the regular output process is immediately interrupted and a multimodal alert of the highest priority is generated;

[0039] The voice broadcast of the highest priority multimodal alarm uses a loop prompt at 3 times the normal volume, the mobile terminal program pushes a full-screen flashing warning icon, the display screen switches to a red background warning interface and highlights the protection recommendation text.

[0040] When a red alert for heavy rain, frost or high temperature is detected, the early warning enhancement mechanism immediately triggers the highest priority multimodal alarm. By increasing the voice broadcast volume, pushing a full-screen flashing warning icon, and switching the red background warning interface to display protection suggestions, it improves the communication effect of extreme weather warnings, enhances users' perception of sudden meteorological risks, and promotes the timely adoption of protective measures.

[0041] It can be seen from the above technical solution that the present application provides a refrigerator and a control method for reference to weather control, the refrigerator comprising: an Internet communication module, configured to connect to an Internet meteorological data source and obtain weather forecast information for a specified period in the future for a target area; an information processing module, communicatively connected to the Internet communication module, configured to parse the temperature, humidity and meteorological event data in the weather forecast information, and generate refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the analysis results; an environmental adjustment actuator, connected to the information processing module, configured to dynamically adjust the refrigerator compartment temperature setting value, the freezer compartment temperature setting value and the humidity parameters in the cabinet in response to the refrigerator parameter control instructions; a multimodal output interface, connected to the information processing module, configured to synchronously convert the parsed weather forecast information into at least two output forms of voice signals, mobile terminal graphic push data and local display screen image data, so as to solve the problem of poor adaptability of the refrigerator in a dynamic environment.

Unless otherwise specified, these terms should be understood according to their ordinary and usual meanings.

[0047] The terms "comprise," "comprises," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover but not exclude inclusion; for example, a product or device comprising a list of components is not necessarily limited to all the components expressly listed but may include other components not expressly listed or inherent to such product or device.

[0048] The term "module" refers to any known or later developed hardware, software, firmware, artificial intelligence, fuzzy logic, or combination of hardware and / or software code that is capable of performing the functionality associated with that element.

[0049] In the smart home appliance sector, smart refrigerators, as key devices in daily household life, not only perform basic cooling functions but also integrate a variety of intelligent features to meet users' needs for efficient food preservation and energy conservation. Advances in weather forecasting technology have enabled more accurate and timely access to environmental information, while the proliferation of IoT technology has facilitated data interconnection and sharing between devices. These developments have collectively driven the evolution of smart refrigerators towards greater intelligence, requiring them to dynamically optimize internal parameters based on external environmental information to enhance food preservation and user experience.

[0050] In related embodiments, a common approach is to use built-in temperature and humidity sensors to detect environmental parameters and, in conjunction with a microprocessor, adjust internal temperature and humidity. Furthermore, networking modules are used to obtain external information such as time and date to enhance the device's interactive functionality. These measures provide users with a basic intelligent experience, such as displaying real-time data or news content.

[0051] However, the above solution has significant shortcomings in information acquisition: over-reliance on built-in sensors limits information accuracy. Damage or inaccuracy can directly impact the control effectiveness. Furthermore, sensors can only capture the current environmental state and cannot predict future changes. This makes it difficult to achieve optimal refrigeration and freshness control in environments with drastic temperature or humidity fluctuations. These issues urgently need to be addressed to improve the device's adaptability in dynamic environments.

[0052] To solve the problem of poor adaptability of refrigerators in dynamic environments, see Figure 1-Figure 2 Some embodiments of the present application provide a refrigerator controlled by reference to weather, including:

[0053] The network communication module is configured to connect to the Internet meteorological data source and obtain weather forecast information for the target area in the future specified period of time.

[0054] It should be understood that the networking communication module may optionally be a WIFI module for interacting with the network and performing digital information processing. Obtaining local weather forecast information through the WIFI module is more direct and comprehensive than obtaining weather forecast information through sensors, with a wider time range, thereby improving the intelligent adjustment effect of the smart refrigerator.

[0055] The information processing module is communicatively connected to the network communication module and is configured to parse the temperature, humidity and meteorological event data in the weather forecast information and generate refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the parsing results.

[0056] It should be understood that the information processing module can independently determine the appropriate program for the user based on the weather forecast for a certain period of time, and can select the refrigerator's refrigeration and freezing temperatures, adjust the refrigerator's humidity, etc. based on the weather forecast information. This personalized adjustment based on weather conditions is more flexible than adjustments based on preset algorithms and rules, and can better meet user needs.

[0057] an environmental adjustment actuator, connected to the information processing module, and configured to dynamically adjust the refrigerator compartment temperature setting value, the freezer compartment temperature setting value, and the humidity parameter inside the cabinet in response to the refrigerator parameter control instruction;

[0058] The multimodal output interface is connected to the information processing module and is configured to synchronously convert the parsed weather forecast information into at least two output forms: voice signals, mobile terminal graphic and text push data, and local display screen image data.

[0059] It should be understood that the multimodal output interface simultaneously converts the parsed weather forecast information into voice signals, mobile terminal image and text push data, and local display screen image data. Compared to displaying text or image information solely on the display screen, this provides a more diverse output method to meet the needs of different users. The mobile terminal can optionally use a mobile phone application to display the weather. The refrigerator also includes a voice broadcast module to broadcast the weather information converted into voice signals.

[0060] The refrigerator obtains future weather forecast information for the target area through the Internet, analyzes temperature, humidity and meteorological event data and generates control instructions, dynamically adjusts the temperature of the refrigerator and freezer compartments and the humidity parameters of the cabinet, and converts weather information into multiple output forms such as voice, text and images, thereby alleviating the refrigerator's lack of adaptability in dynamic environments, improving the timeliness of environmental parameter adjustment and the convenience of user information acquisition.

[0061] In the embodiments of the present application, the refrigerator is generally provided with a refrigerator compartment and a freezer compartment. The main function of the refrigerator compartment is to preserve food. It is usually located in the upper half of the refrigerator and its design temperature is generally above 0 degrees Celsius, usually between 2 degrees Celsius and 8 degrees Celsius. This temperature range is sufficient to slow the growth rate of bacteria in food, thereby extending the shelf life of the food while maintaining the freshness and taste of the food. The refrigerator compartment can be used to store various perishable foods such as vegetables, fruits, dairy products, cooked meats, and leftovers. The main function of the freezer compartment is to freeze and store food for a long time. It is usually located in the lower half of the refrigerator and its design temperature is far below 0 degrees Celsius, generally below -18 degrees Celsius. At this extremely low temperature, the moisture in the food will freeze quickly, effectively preventing the growth of bacteria and allowing the food to be stored for a long time without spoiling. The freezer compartment can be used to store meat, fish, ice cream, quick-frozen foods, etc. for a long time.

[0062] In some embodiments, the networking communication module includes a WIFI chipset and a data verification unit, wherein the WIFI chipset is connected to the central meteorological server via the TCP / IP protocol, and the data verification unit performs integrity verification on the received weather forecast information and filters invalid data packets to ensure that the data input into the information processing module meets a preset reliability threshold.

[0063] It should be understood that TCP / IP is the core communication protocol suite of the Internet, which regulates data transmission and communication between network devices. It is composed of multiple protocols that ensure that data can be transmitted reliably and orderly across the global network.

[0064] The networking communication module connects to the central meteorological server through the WIFI chipset based on the TCP / IP protocol, and uses the data verification unit to perform integrity verification and invalid data packet filtering on the received weather forecast information, thereby improving the data reliability of the input information processing module and reducing the possibility of control deviation due to data errors or omissions.

[0065] In some embodiments, the information processing module includes a program decision engine, which inputs the 24-hour temperature change curve, humidity percentage and precipitation probability data in the weather forecast information into a pre-trained classification model to output corresponding refrigeration program code, and the program code includes a high-humidity environment dehumidification mode, a high-temperature environment energy-saving refrigeration mode and a low-temperature environment constant temperature preservation mode.

[0066] The information processing module inputs the temperature change curve, humidity and precipitation probability data in the weather forecast into the pre-trained classification model through the program decision engine, and outputs the corresponding refrigeration program code, including the dehumidification mode for high-humidity environment, the energy-saving refrigeration mode for high-temperature environment and the constant temperature preservation mode for low-temperature environment, thereby optimizing the refrigerator operation strategy, improving the adaptability to different meteorological conditions, and enhancing energy efficiency and preservation effects.

[0067] In some embodiments, the environmental conditioning actuator is composed of a temperature control subsystem and a humidity control subsystem. The temperature control subsystem adjusts the compressor power and the damper opening to achieve temperature control with an accuracy of ±0.5 degrees Celsius; the humidity control subsystem maintains the humidity in the box within a preset range of 45%-65% through the coordinated operation of a semiconductor dehumidification component and a misting humidification component.

At the same time, the humidity control subsystem cooperates with the semiconductor dehumidification component and the atomization humidification component to maintain the humidity in the box within the preset range of 45%-65%, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature and humidity regulation and improving the stability of the food storage environment.

[0069] In some embodiments, the multimodal output interface integrates a speech synthesis chip, a Bluetooth transmission module and an HDMI driving circuit. The speech synthesis chip converts weather warning information in text format into an analog sound wave signal. The Bluetooth transmission module pushes a JSON data packet containing a temperature trend chart to the bound mobile terminal. The HDMI driving circuit generates a dynamic weather cloud map interface suitable for touch screen display.

[0070] It should be understood that the HDMI driver circuit refers to the electronic circuit module used to drive the transmission of HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) signals. It is mainly responsible for converting digital video and audio data into electrical signals that comply with the HDMI standard and transmitting them to display devices (such as monitors and TVs) via cables. Its core task is to ensure the integrity and stability of high-speed, high-bandwidth signals.

[0071] The multimodal output interface converts weather warning information into analog sound wave signals through an integrated speech synthesis chip, uses a Bluetooth transmission module to push a JSON data packet containing a temperature trend chart to a mobile terminal, and uses an HDMI driver circuit to generate a dynamic weather cloud map interface adapted to the touch screen, thereby expanding the information output method and improving the user's convenience in obtaining weather data and the interactive experience.

[0072] In some embodiments, the program decision engine has a built-in priority arbitration mechanism. When a high temperature warning and a high humidity warning are detected at the same time, the high humidity environment dehumidification mode is started first and the execution of the high temperature refrigeration instruction is delayed until the humidity in the cabinet drops below the safety threshold. The priority arbitration mechanism triggers mode switching by real-time monitoring of the humidity sensor feedback data.

[0073] The program decision engine uses a built-in priority arbitration mechanism to prioritize the dehumidification mode and suspend the high-temperature refrigeration command when high temperature warning and high humidity warning are detected at the same time. It dynamically triggers mode switching based on the feedback data from the humidity sensor, thereby optimizing the operating logic, reducing temperature and humidity adjustment conflicts, and improving the coordination and reliability of refrigerator operation under extreme weather conditions.

[0074] See also Figure 1 Some embodiments of the present application further provide a method for controlling a refrigerator with reference to weather control, which is applied to the refrigerator with reference to weather control described in the above embodiments, and the method includes:

[0075] S100: Establishing a connection between the network communication module and an Internet meteorological data source, and obtaining weather forecast information for a target area in a specified future period.

[0076] For example, the network communication module obtains the weather forecast information of city A within 24 hours of the day, including temperature, humidity, rainfall probability, etc., by connecting to the Internet meteorological data source.

[0078] S300: The information processing module analyzes the temperature, humidity and meteorological event data in the weather forecast information, and generates refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the analysis results.

[0079] It should be understood that the information processing module can select refrigerator refrigeration and freezing temperatures appropriate for the user and adjust the refrigerator's humidity based on the weather forecast. For example, if the humidity is expected to be greater than 60% within the next 24 hours, the information processing module may determine that the appropriate program for the user is to lower the refrigerator's humidity to maintain food freshness.

[0080] S400: Transmitting the refrigerator parameter control instruction to the environment adjustment actuator.

[0083] It should be understood that the parsed weather forecast information can be converted into weather text, mobile terminal graphics, or voice signals at a fixed time every day. For example, the weather forecast information for the next 24 hours can be displayed on a mobile phone application and converted into a voice signal output through a voice broadcast function.

[0084] The control method obtains weather forecast information for the target area through the Internet and analyzes temperature, humidity and meteorological event data to generate refrigerator parameter control instructions to dynamically adjust the temperature of the refrigerator and freezer compartments and the humidity parameters of the cabinet. At the same time, the weather information is converted into multiple output forms, thereby enhancing the refrigerator's adaptability to dynamic environments, optimizing the timeliness of storage environment adjustment, and improving the user's convenience in obtaining weather information.

[0085] In some embodiments, the information processing module analyzes the temperature, humidity, and meteorological event data in the weather forecast information, and generates refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the analysis results, including:

[0089] In some embodiments, the step of generating refrigerator parameter control instructions based on the analysis results further includes:

[0090] When it is detected that the probability of precipitation in the next three hours is greater than 70% and the relative humidity is continuously higher than 65%, the humidity control weight coefficient is increased to the highest level to generate a forced dehumidification instruction; the forced dehumidification instruction is used to lower the temperature set point of the cold storage room by 2 degrees Celsius to 3 degrees Celsius, and at the same time extend the operation time of the dehumidification module by at least 40 minutes to cope with the sudden change in humidity.

[0091] When a high probability of precipitation and continued high humidity are detected within the next three hours, a forced dehumidification instruction is generated by increasing the humidity control weight coefficient, adjusting the temperature setting value of the refrigerator compartment and extending the operating time of the dehumidification module, thereby enhancing the ability to respond to sudden high-humidity environments, improving the humidity regulation effect inside the box, and maintaining the stability of the food storage environment.

[0092] In some embodiments, the method further comprises: an early warning enhancement mechanism;

[0093] If the weather forecast includes a red alert for heavy rain, frost, or high temperatures, the regular output process is immediately interrupted and a multimodal alert of the highest priority is generated;

[0094] The voice broadcast of the highest priority multimodal alarm uses a loop prompt at 3 times the normal volume, the mobile terminal program pushes a full-screen flashing warning icon, the display screen switches to a red background warning interface and highlights the protection recommendation text.

[0095] When a red alert for heavy rain, frost or high temperature is detected, the early warning enhancement mechanism immediately triggers the highest priority multimodal alarm. By increasing the voice broadcast volume, pushing a full-screen flashing warning icon, and switching the red background warning interface to display protection suggestions, it improves the communication effect of extreme weather warnings, enhances users' perception of sudden meteorological risks, and promotes the timely adoption of protective measures.
