[0027] Figure 1This is a flow chart of the water supply equipment determination method provided by the present invention. This embodiment can be applied to situations where users are helped to select appropriate water supply equipment based on their water needs. The method can be executed by a water supply equipment determination device, which can be implemented in the form of hardware and / or software and can be configured in an electronic device. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0028] S101. Obtaining the water demand of the current user within a target period and the whole-house water system information, wherein the whole-house water system information includes at least one candidate water supply device, and each candidate water supply device corresponds to a flow interval.

[0029] The water demand refers to the user's demand for water. A whole-house water system is a system that can be used in a home and processes tap water for household use. For example, a whole-house water system may include water-using equipment (such as faucets, showers, bathtubs, etc.), water treatment equipment (such as pre-filters, pipeline machines, etc.), and water supply equipment (such as central water purifiers, central water softeners, under-sink water purifiers, etc.).

[0030] Specifically, before the user needs water, the water supply equipment determination device will obtain the water demand of the current user in the target period and match the whole-house water system information. For example, the user inputs the need for water on the electronic device, and the water supply equipment determination device will compare the water demand in different periods pre-entered by the user with the target period to obtain the water demand of the current user in the target period. At the same time, when the current user is determined, the whole-house water system information that matches the current user can be obtained based on the information of the current user. Among them, the water demand of each user in different periods and the corresponding whole-house water system information can be input by the user before the user's initial use, or can be input by the user in the mobile terminal, and the input content is saved to the cloud system for storage.

[0031] For example, the acquired whole-house water system information includes at least one candidate water supply device, and each candidate water supply device corresponds to its detailed information, such as device name, device flow range, device function, etc. For example, the kitchen water purifier corresponds to the device flow range [Fc min , Fc max ], whose function is to clean the water used in the kitchen.

[0032] In this embodiment, the water demand of the current user in the target period and the whole-house water system information are obtained to clarify the water demand of the current user in the target period and the information of the candidate water supply equipment in the whole-house water system information, thereby providing information support for the subsequent determination of the water supply equipment based on the water demand and the candidate water supply equipment information.

[0033] S102: Determine the estimated water consumption of the current user within the target period based on the water demand.

[0034] The estimated water consumption is the estimated water flow value.

[0035] Specifically, after obtaining the water demand of the current user within the target period, the estimated water consumption of the current user within the target period can be determined based on the water demand. For example, in one implementation, the user can directly input the water demand of the target period on the mobile terminal, and the water supply equipment determination device can calculate the estimated water consumption of the current user within the target period based on the water demand of the target period input by the user. In another implementation, before the first use, the user can input the water demand of the entire period on the mobile terminal, that is, customize the water demand of the entire period; thereafter, when the user needs water during the target period, the water demand corresponding to the target period can be searched based on the water demand pre-set by the user during the first use, and the estimated water consumption can be determined based on the water demand.

[0036] For example, the estimated water consumption can be calculated as follows:

[0037] Assume that there are four types of water-using equipment: ordinary faucets, ordinary showerheads, high-end showerheads, and ordinary bathtubs. The corresponding custom names and water quotas for each type are shown in Table 1.

[0038] Table 1 Information table of candidate water supply equipment

[0039] Water equipment Custom name Water quota (L / min) Ordinary faucet ptlt 5 Ordinary shower head PTHs 8 High-end shower head gdhs 12 Ordinary bathtub ptyg 15

[0040] Among them, the custom name of ordinary faucet is ptlt, and the water quota is 5L / min; the custom name of ordinary shower is pths, and the water quota is 8L / min; the custom name of high-end shower is gdhs, and the water quota is 12L / min; the custom name of ordinary bathtub is ptyg, and the water quota is 15L / min;

[0041] If the user's water demand during the target period is a, b, and c ordinary faucets, then the estimated water consumption W can be calculated as follows:

[0042] W=(a×5+b×12+c×15)×T / 1000

[0043] Where T is the length of a target cycle.

[0044] In this embodiment, the estimated water consumption within the target period is determined based on the water quota of each water-using device and the water demand of the current user within the target period, so that the most suitable water supply device can be determined later based on the calculated estimated water consumption.

[0045] S103. Determine a target water supply device from the candidate water supply devices based on the estimated water consumption, wherein the estimated water consumption is within a flow range corresponding to the target water supply device.

[0046] The target water supply equipment is the water supply equipment that can eventually be provided to users.

[0047] Specifically, after the estimated water consumption is calculated, the target water supply equipment can be determined from the candidate water supply equipment. For example, assuming that the estimated water consumption is W, the candidate water supply equipment includes equipment 1, and the flow range of equipment 1 is [F1 min , F1 max ]; Device 2, the flow range of device 2 is [F2 min , F2 max ]; Equipment 3, the flow range of equipment 3 is [F3 min , F3 max ]. Compare the estimated water consumption W with the flow interval of device 1, the flow interval of device 2 and the flow interval of device 3. Assume F1 min ≤W≤F1 max , F2 min ≤F2 max ≤W,W≤F3 min ≤F3 max , it can be determined that device 1 is the target water supply device.

[0048] In this embodiment, the target water supply equipment is determined based on the estimated water consumption and the flow range corresponding to each candidate water supply equipment, so that the user can determine the target water supply equipment suitable for this water use according to the current needs, and quickly and accurately recommend the appropriate target water supply equipment to the user to meet the user's usage needs and enhance the user's usage experience.

[0049] The water supply equipment determination method provided by an embodiment of the present invention obtains the current user's water demand and overall water system information within a target period; based on the water demand, determines the current user's estimated water consumption within the target period; and, based on the estimated water consumption, determines a target water supply equipment from candidate water supply equipment. This technical solution, on the one hand, obtains the current user's water demand and overall water system information within the target period to clarify the current user's water demand within the target period, and combines this with the candidate water supply equipment information in the overall water system information, providing information support for subsequent determination of a water supply equipment based on the water demand and the candidate water supply equipment information. On the other hand, the estimated water consumption within the target period is determined based on the water quota of each water-using equipment and the current user's water demand within the target period, facilitating the subsequent determination of the most suitable water supply equipment based on the calculated estimated water consumption. Finally, the target water supply equipment is determined based on the estimated water consumption and the flow range corresponding to each candidate water supply equipment, allowing the user to determine the target water supply equipment suitable for the current water use based on their current demand. This allows for quick and accurate recommendation of the appropriate target water supply equipment to the user, meeting their needs and enhancing their user experience.

[0050] Figure 2 This is another flow chart of the method for determining water supply equipment provided by the present invention. Based on the above embodiment and other optional embodiments, this embodiment describes in detail the steps before obtaining the water demand of the current user in the target period and the water system information of the whole house, the step of obtaining the water demand of the current user in the target period and the water system information of the whole house, the step of determining the estimated water consumption of the current user in the target period, and the step of determining the target water supply equipment from the candidate water supply equipment based on the estimated water consumption. Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0051] S201. The receiving device determines request information.

[0052] The device determines that the request information includes identification information and water usage information, the identification information corresponds to at least one user, the at least one user includes the current user, and the water usage information includes the water demand of each user in each cycle.

[0053] Specifically, before obtaining the water demand of the current user in the target period and the whole-house water system information, device confirmation request information can be received.

[0054] For example, before the user uses the device for the first time, the user can send identification information and water use information to the water supply equipment determination device via a mobile terminal. The identification information includes the household corresponding to the current whole-house water system and information about its family members, that is, at least one user information. The water use information includes the water demand of each user in each cycle, and the water use demand may include water flow, water use equipment, water use function, etc. After the user sends the device determination request information containing identification information and water use information to the water supply equipment determination device via a mobile terminal, the water supply equipment determination device can save the information to the memory in the device, or upload it to the cloud server, so that when the user triggers the identification information subsequently, the user's water demand can be determined based on the saved information.

[0055] At this time, if the user initiates equipment determination request information, the water supply equipment determination device can receive the equipment determination request information.

[0056] S202: Determine the water system information of the entire house according to the identification information.

[0057] Among them, the identification information corresponds one-to-one to the water system information of the whole house.

[0058] Specifically, since the identification information includes the household corresponding to the current whole-house water system and its family member information, that is, at least one user information, the whole-house water system information can be determined based on the identification information.

[0059] For example, after receiving the device determination request, the water supply device determination device can determine the whole-house water system information corresponding to the current user who initiated the device determination request based on the identification information in the device determination request. Specifically, based on the identification information in the device determination request, the water supply device determination device can query the memory within the water supply device determination device or the cloud server for the whole-house water system information corresponding to the current user.

[0060] S203: Determine water demand from water usage information according to the cycle identifier of the target cycle triggered by the current user.

[0061] The cycle identifier is identification information of the cycle, and different cycles have different cycle identifiers.

[0062] Specifically, when the current user triggers the cycle identifier in the target cycle, the water supply equipment determination device will find the cycle corresponding to the cycle identifier of the target cycle in the water demand within each cycle in the water use information to determine the water demand corresponding to the cycle. For example, as shown in Table 2.

[0063] Table 2 Water use information list

[0064] cycle Water demand 8:00-9:00 Requirement A 9:00-11:00 Requirement B 14:00-16:00 Requirement C 18:00-20:00 Demand D

[0065] The water use information list shows different water demands in different periods. For example, in the period of 8:00-9:00, the water demand is demand A; in the period of 9:00-11:00, the water demand is demand B; in the period of 14:00-16:00, the water demand is demand C; in the period of 18:00-20:00, the water demand is demand D.

[0066] Assuming that the target period triggered by the user is marked as 10:00, the water demand in the corresponding period of 9:00-11:00 can be determined as demand B from the water use information.

[0067] It is worth noting that the display form of water usage information and the time of different cycles are only illustrative examples. In actual situations, there are no restrictions on the display form of water usage information and the time of different cycles, and they can be set according to user needs.

[0068] In this embodiment, the request information is determined by receiving the device, the whole-house water use system information corresponding to the current user is determined according to the identification information, and the water use demand is determined from the water use information according to the cycle identification of the target cycle triggered by the current user, so as to quickly obtain the whole-house water use system information corresponding to the current user and the water use demand of the current user in the target cycle, and provide basic information for the subsequent rapid determination of the target water supply equipment of the current user in the target cycle.

[0069] S204: Determine the target total water consumption amount based on the duration of the target period, the number of water consumption points of each type of water-using equipment and its corresponding water consumption quota.

[0070] The whole-house water system information also includes at least one type of water-using equipment. The water demand includes the number of water points used by each type of water-using equipment. Each type of water-using equipment corresponds to a water quota. The target period duration is the duration of the target period. The water points are the number of times each type of water-using equipment is used during the target period. The water quota is the rated water consumption of the water-using equipment.

[0071] Specifically, after determining the water use system information of the entire house based on the identification information and the cycle identification of the target cycle triggered by the current user, and determining the water use demand from the water use information, the total target water use amount can be determined based on the duration of the target cycle, the number of water use points of each type of water-using equipment and its corresponding water use quota.

[0072] For example, as shown in Tables 1 and 2, assuming the target period is 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM, i.e., the target period lasts 60 minutes. Based on the current user's water demand, it can be determined that two standard showerheads and one standard bathtub are used during the target period. The standard showerhead has two water points, corresponding to a water quota of 8 L / min, and the standard bathtub has one water point, corresponding to a water quota of 15 L / min. Therefore, based on the target period duration, the number of water points for each type of water-using equipment, and its corresponding water quota, the target total water consumption Q = 60 × (2 × 8 + 1 × 15) = 1860 L can be determined.

[0073] S205. Determine the target total water consumption based on the number of water use points, water use duration, and corresponding water use quota for each type of water-using equipment.

[0074] Among them, water usage time refers to the usage time of each type of water-using equipment.

[0075] Specifically, in addition to calculating the target total water consumption according to the method of S204, the target total water consumption may also be determined based on the number of water use points, water use duration, and corresponding water use quotas for each type of water-using equipment.

[0076] For example, assume that within the target period, based on the current user's water needs, the number of water points for using a high-end shower is 1, the water usage duration is 5 minutes, and the corresponding water quota is 12 L / min; the number of water points for using a standard faucet is 2, the water usage duration is 30 minutes, and the corresponding water quota is 5 L / min; the number of water points for using a standard bathtub is 1, the water usage duration is 60 minutes, and the corresponding water quota is 15 L / min. Therefore, based on the number of water points, water usage duration, and corresponding water quota for each type of water-using equipment, the target total water consumption is determined as Q = 1 × 12 × 5 + 2 × 5 × 30 + 1 × 15 × 60 = 1260 (L).

[0077] It is worth noting that S204 and S205 are two parallel steps. In actual application, when the user has not set the water usage time for each type of water-using equipment, S204 is executed; when the user has pre-set the water usage time for each type of water-using equipment, or the user enters the water usage time for each type of water-using equipment when using it, S205 is executed.

[0078] S206: Determine the estimated water consumption of the current user within the target period based on the target total water consumption.

[0079] Specifically, after the total water consumption target is calculated in S204 or S205, the estimated water consumption of the current user in the target period can be determined based on the total water consumption target. For example, estimated water consumption W = total water consumption target / 1000.

[0080] In this embodiment, the target total water consumption is calculated to determine the estimated water consumption of the current user within the target period, so that the most suitable water supply equipment can be determined later based on the calculated estimated water consumption.

[0081] S207: Determine an intermediate water supply device based on the estimated water consumption and the flow range corresponding to each candidate water supply device.

[0082] Among them, one water supply device corresponds to one or more water supply types; the water demand also includes the water type of the current user.

[0083] Specifically, each candidate water supply equipment has a corresponding flow interval. Therefore, according to the flow interval corresponding to each candidate water supply equipment, a candidate water supply equipment with an estimated water consumption within the flow interval corresponding to the candidate water supply equipment can be determined as an intermediate water supply equipment.

[0084] For example, it is assumed that the flow interval corresponding to the candidate water supply equipment 4 is [F4 min , F4 max ], the flow range corresponding to candidate water supply equipment 5 is [F5 min , F5 max ], the flow range corresponding to candidate water supply equipment 6 is [F6 min , F6 max Compare the estimated water consumption with the flow interval corresponding to each candidate water supply device and obtain: F4 min ≤W≤F4 max , F5 min ≤F5 max ≤W,F6 min ≤W≤F6 max Therefore, the candidate water supply equipment 4 and the candidate water supply equipment 6 can be used as intermediate water supply equipment.

[0085] In this embodiment, the intermediate water supply equipment is determined based on the estimated water consumption and the flow range corresponding to each candidate water supply equipment, thereby achieving rapid and accurate determination of the intermediate water supply equipment suitable for the current water demand.

[0086] S208. Determine whether the water supply type of the intermediate water supply device matches the water use type of the current user; if so, execute S209; if not, execute S210.

[0087] The water supply type refers to the type of water supply function of each water supply device, and the water use type refers to the type of water required by the user.

[0088] Specifically, the water supply type of each water supply device and the water type required by each user can be set in advance. Exemplarily, according to the water supply type of the water supply device. For example, the water supply type of the central water purifier is set to fresh water, the water supply type of the central water softener is softened water, and the water supply type of the kitchen water purifier is strontium-rich mineral water, zinc-rich mineral water or other types. According to the water needs of different users, the water type of each user is set. For example, the water type corresponding to the elderly is set to at least one of fresh water and strontium-rich mineral water; the water type corresponding to infants is set to at least one of fresh water and zinc-rich mineral water; and the water type corresponding to adults is set to fresh water.

[0089] After obtaining the intermediate water supply equipment, you can judge whether the water supply type of the intermediate water supply equipment matches the water usage type of the current user based on the water supply type of the intermediate water supply equipment. If it matches, the matching intermediate water supply equipment will be determined as the target water supply equipment; if it does not match, you can choose to send equipment confirmation feedback information to the user terminal of the current user.

[0090] S209: Determine the intermediate water supply equipment as the target water supply equipment.

[0091] Specifically, if the water supply type of the intermediate water supply equipment matches the water use type of the current user, the intermediate water supply equipment can be determined as the target water supply equipment. Exemplarily, in one implementation, it is assumed that the intermediate water supply equipment includes a central water purifier, a central water softener, and an under-sink water purifier. The water supply type of the central water purifier is fresh water, the water supply type of the central water softener is softened water, and the water supply type of the under-sink water purifier is strontium-rich mineral water and zinc-rich mineral water. The current user is an elderly person, and his water use type is strontium-rich mineral water. Therefore, the under-sink water purifier can be determined as the target water supply equipment. In another implementation, the current user is an adult, and his water use type is fresh water and softened water. Therefore, the central water purifier and the central water softener can be determined as the target water supply equipment.

[0092] S210: Send device confirmation feedback information to the user terminal of the current user.

[0093] The device determines that the feedback information includes the target water supply equipment.

[0094] Specifically, if the water supply type of the intermediate water supply equipment does not match the water use type of the current user, or the water supply type of the intermediate water supply equipment matches the water use type of the current user, and the matching intermediate water supply equipment is determined as the target water supply equipment, the device determination feedback information can be sent to the user terminal of the current user.

[0095] For example, in one implementation, if the water supply type of the intermediate water supply device does not match the current user's water usage type, device confirmation feedback information may be sent to the current user's user terminal; in this case, the device confirmation feedback information may include the intermediate water supply device information, the water supply type of the intermediate water supply device, and the result of the failed match. In another implementation, if the water supply type of the intermediate water supply device matches the current user's water usage type, after the matched intermediate water supply device is determined as the target water supply device, device confirmation feedback information may be sent to the current user's user terminal; in this case, the device confirmation feedback information may include the determined target water supply device, the water supply type of the target water supply device, and the result of the successful match.

[0096] In this embodiment, after determining the intermediate water supply device by estimating the water consumption and the flow interval corresponding to each candidate water supply device, the intermediate water supply device can also be matched with the current user's water use type based on the water supply type of the intermediate water supply device; when the match is successful, the successfully matched intermediate water supply device is determined as the target water supply device, and device determination feedback information containing the target water supply device is sent to the user terminal of the current user, so that the user can determine the target water supply device suitable for this water use based on the current demand, and quickly and accurately recommend the appropriate target water supply device to the user to meet the user's usage needs and improve the user's user experience. At the same time, if the match fails, device determination feedback information containing the intermediate water supply device and the failed match can be sent to the user terminal of the current user, so that the user can quickly understand that there is currently no water supply device corresponding to the user's water use type, and the user is provided with optional intermediate water supply devices, so that the user can choose to continue using water according to the recommended intermediate water supply device, or not use water within the target period.

[0097] The water supply equipment determination method provided by the embodiment of the present invention determines the water system information of the whole house according to the identification information after receiving the equipment determination request information; determines the water demand from the water use information according to the period identification of the target period triggered by the current user; selects to determine the total water target amount according to the duration of the target period, the number of water use points of each type of water use equipment and its corresponding water use quota, or selects to determine the total water target amount according to the number of water use points, water use duration and its corresponding water use quota of each type of water use equipment; after determining the total water target amount, the estimated water consumption of the current user in the target period can be determined according to the total water target amount, and the intermediate water supply equipment is determined according to the estimated water consumption and the flow interval corresponding to each candidate water supply equipment; after determining the intermediate water supply equipment, it is judged whether the water supply type of the intermediate water supply equipment matches the water use type of the current user; when matching, the intermediate water supply equipment is determined as the target water supply equipment, and equipment determination feedback information containing the target water supply equipment is sent to the user terminal of the current user; when not matching, the equipment determination feedback information containing the intermediate water supply equipment and the matching failure is sent to the user terminal of the current user. In the above technical solution, on the one hand, the request information is determined by the receiving device, the whole-house water system information corresponding to the current user is determined according to the identification information, and the water demand is determined from the water use information according to the period identification of the target period triggered by the current user, so as to quickly obtain the whole-house water system information corresponding to the current user and the water demand of the current user in the target period, and provide basic information for the subsequent rapid determination of the target water supply equipment of the current user in the target period. On the other hand, by calculating the total target water consumption, the estimated water consumption of the current user in the target period is determined, so that the most suitable water supply equipment can be determined later based on the estimated water consumption obtained by calculation. On the other hand, the intermediate water supply equipment is determined based on the estimated water consumption and the flow interval corresponding to each candidate water supply equipment, so as to quickly and accurately determine the intermediate water supply equipment suitable for this water demand. Finally, after determining the intermediate water supply equipment by estimating the water consumption and the flow interval corresponding to each candidate water supply equipment, the water supply type of the intermediate water supply equipment can be matched with the water use type of the current user; when the match is successful, the successfully matched intermediate water supply equipment is determined as the target water supply equipment, and equipment determination feedback information containing the target water supply equipment is sent to the user terminal of the current user, so that the user can determine the target water supply equipment suitable for this water use according to the current demand, and quickly and accurately recommend the appropriate target water supply equipment to the user to meet the user's usage needs and improve the user's user experience. At the same time, if the match fails, the user terminal of the current user can be sent a feedback information containing the intermediate water supply equipment and the equipment determination of the failed match, so that the user can quickly understand that there is no water supply equipment corresponding to the water use type required by the user, and provide the user with optional intermediate water supply equipment, so that the user can choose to continue using water according to the recommended intermediate water supply equipment, or not use water within the target period.
