[0053] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0054] The terms "first," "second," and the like in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or precedence. It should be understood that the terms used in this manner are interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of this application can be implemented in an order other than that illustrated or described herein, and that the objects distinguished by "first," "second," and the like are generally of the same type, and do not limit the number of objects; for example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, the term "and / or" in the specification and claims refers to at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the objects connected are in an "or" relationship.

[0055] The control method of the storage device, the control device of the storage device, the storage device and the readable storage medium provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments and their application scenarios in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0056] The control method of the storage device may be applied to a terminal, and may be specifically executed by hardware or software in the terminal.

[0057] The control method of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be executed by the storage device or a functional module or functional entity in the storage device that can implement the control method of the storage device. The control of the storage device mentioned in the embodiment of the present application includes but is not limited to wine cabinets, storage cabinets, and vending cabinets. The control method of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application is explained below using the storage device as an example of the execution subject.

[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, the control method of the storage device includes: step 110, step 120 and step 130.

[0059] The storage device comprises a temperature regulating device, which is used to regulate the temperature inside the storage device.

[0060] In some embodiments, the temperature regulating device may include: a heating device and a refrigeration device, etc.

[0061] Step 110: Obtain the ambient temperature of the storage device;

[0062] In this step, the storage equipment is a device for storing wine, beverages or other food ingredients. For example, the storage equipment may include: a wine cabinet, a beverage cabinet, a storage cabinet, and a vending cabinet, etc.

[0063] Ambient temperature is the actual temperature around the area where the storage equipment is located.

[0064] During actual implementation, a first temperature sensor may be provided in the storage device or in the environment where the storage device is located to collect the ambient temperature of the storage device.

[0065] For example, a first temperature sensor is provided in a room where storage equipment is placed to collect the ambient temperature in the room.

[0066] In other embodiments, the ambient temperature may also be determined based on weather forecast data of the area where the storage device is located, which is not limited in this application.

[0067] Step 120: When the ambient temperature is within the target range, obtain the temperature of the target compartment in the storage device;

[0068] In this step, the storage device may include one or more compartments.

[0069] Each compartment is used to store objects.

[0070] In some embodiments, each compartment may be an independent closed space.

[0071] The target compartment may be any one or more compartments.

[0072] The compartment temperature is the actual temperature inside the target compartment.

[0073] In the actual implementation process, a second temperature sensor can be set in each compartment to collect the compartment temperature in the corresponding compartment.

[0074] It is understandable that, when there are multiple compartments, the compartment temperatures in different compartments may be the same or may be different.

[0075] The target range can be a preset temperature range or can be user-defined.

[0076] The target range may include a first range and a second range.

[0077] The maximum value of the first range is smaller than the minimum value of the second range, that is, the temperatures included in the second range are higher than the temperatures included in the first range as a whole.

[0078] For example, the first range may be set to 20° C. and below, and the second range may be set to 35° C. and above, etc., which is not limited in this application.

[0079] During actual implementation, whether the storage device needs to be temperature-adjusted can be determined based on the relationship between the ambient temperature and the first range and the second range, and if it is determined that temperature adjustment is required, the type of adjustment required can be determined.

[0080] When it is determined that the ambient temperature is within the target range, a second temperature sensor disposed in the storage device may be controlled to be turned on to collect temperature data.

[0081] In some embodiments, when the target range is the first range, the temperature adjustment device may be a heating device.

[0082] When the target range is the second range, the temperature adjustment device may be a refrigeration device.

[0083] In this embodiment, when the target range is the first range, when the ambient temperature is within the target range, it can be approximately considered that the current ambient temperature of the storage device is low. In this case, the storage device may need to be heated, and the temperature adjustment device is determined to be a heating device.

[0084] When the target range is the second range, when the ambient temperature is within the target range, it can be approximately considered that the current ambient temperature of the storage device is high. In this case, the storage device may need to be cooled, and the temperature adjustment device is determined to be a refrigeration device.

[0085] In some embodiments, when the ambient temperature is not within the target range, it can be considered that the current temperature is relatively suitable, and there is no need to control the second temperature sensor disposed in the storage device to be turned on.

[0086] Step 130: Adjust the on / off state of the temperature regulating device based on the compartment temperature and the target temperature corresponding to the target compartment.

[0087] In this step, the target temperature is the set temperature of the target compartment.

[0088] The target temperature may be set by the user, such as by setting a gear value corresponding to the target compartment; or may be determined based on the type of storage object such as wine or beverage stored in the target compartment.

[0089] Taking wine as an example, for semi-sweet and sweet red wine, the appropriate storage temperature is 14-16°C;

[0090] For dry red wine, the appropriate storage temperature is 16-22℃;

[0091] For dry white wine, the appropriate storage temperature is 8-10℃;

[0092] For semi-dry white wine, the appropriate storage temperature is 8-12℃;

[0093] For semi-sweet and sweet white wines, the appropriate storage temperature is 10-12°C;

[0094] For brandy, the suitable storage temperature is below 15°C.

[0095] The temperature regulating device is used to regulate the temperature of the target compartment, including heating or cooling the target compartment.

[0096] For example, when the target range is the first range and the compartment temperature is lower than the target temperature, the heating device is controlled to be turned on to heat the target compartment.

[0097] When the target range is the second range and the compartment temperature is higher than the target temperature, the refrigeration device is controlled to be turned on to cool the target compartment.

[0098] During the research and development process, the inventor discovered that in the related technology, there is also a method of setting a temperature sensor in the wine cabinet to control the temperature adjustment device based on the temperature in the wine cabinet to adjust the temperature. However, this method requires the temperature sensor set in the wine cabinet to remain in a working state for a long time, which not only consumes energy, but also affects the service life of the sensor, thereby affecting the temperature adjustment effect of the wine cabinet.

[0099] In the present application, by adjusting the opening and closing states of the temperature regulating device through the compartment temperature and the target temperature corresponding to the target compartment, the temperature of the target compartment can be effectively controlled to maintain it within a temperature range suitable for the stored wine. The invention is suitable for any environment, especially for harsh environments (such as winter, basement or low outdoor temperature), to avoid the occurrence of frozen wine, improve the storage effect, improve the taste of the wine and the shelf life; and significantly reduce the environmental requirements for the placement of storage equipment such as wine cabinets.

[0100] In addition, by first obtaining the external ambient temperature and then controlling the sensor used to collect the temperature inside the wine cabinet to turn on when the external ambient temperature is within the set range, the working time of the temperature sensor installed in the wine cabinet can be reduced, the energy consumption of the wine cabinet can be reduced, the service life of the temperature sensor can be extended, and the temperature regulation effect of the wine cabinet can be further improved.

[0101] According to the control method of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application, by collecting the compartment temperature in the target compartment of the storage device when the external ambient temperature is within a set range, the temperature is controlled by adjusting the open and closed state of the temperature adjustment device based on the compartment temperature and the target temperature corresponding to the target compartment. The temperature of the target compartment can be effectively controlled to maintain it within the appropriate temperature range required by the stored object, thereby improving the taste and shelf life of the stored object; in addition, it can also reduce the energy consumption of the storage device, extend its service life, and further improve the user experience.

[0102] In some embodiments, step 130 may include:

[0103] Based on the target temperature, determining a target regulation threshold;

[0104] Based on the compartment temperature and the target adjustment threshold, the opening and closing state of the temperature adjustment device is adjusted.

[0105] In this embodiment, the target adjustment threshold is a critical value that triggers the start of temperature adjustment.

[0106] The target throttling threshold value has a different value than the target temperature.

[0107] The target adjustment threshold may be a value that is relatively close to the target temperature.

[0108] In the actual implementation process, the target adjustment threshold can be determined based on the set temperature first, and then the temperature control can be performed based on the size of the compartment temperature and the target adjustment threshold. For example, for the heating device, when the compartment temperature is less than the target adjustment threshold, the heating device is controlled to be turned on; for the cooling device, when the compartment temperature is greater than the target adjustment threshold, the cooling device is controlled to be turned on.

[0109] In some embodiments, the correspondence between the target temperature and the target adjustment threshold can be preset to determine the target adjustment threshold based on the target temperature; alternatively, the target adjustment threshold can be customized by the user, which is not limited in this application.

[0110] In some embodiments, the temperature adjustment device may include a heating device, and the target adjustment threshold includes a first threshold and a second threshold; adjusting the on / off state of the temperature adjustment device based on the compartment temperature and the target adjustment threshold includes:

[0111] When the compartment temperature is lower than the first threshold, the heating device is controlled to turn on;

[0112] Reacquiring the compartment temperature within the target compartment;

[0113] When the newly acquired compartment temperature is greater than the second threshold, the heating device is controlled to be turned off.

[0114] In this embodiment, the first threshold value is a critical value for triggering the heating device to turn on.

[0115] The second threshold is a critical value that triggers the heating device to be turned off after the heating device is turned on.

[0116] The first threshold is smaller than the second threshold.

[0117] The first threshold is not greater than the target temperature, and the second threshold is not less than the target temperature.

[0118] The first threshold value may be a value slightly lower than the target temperature, and the second threshold value may be a value slightly higher than the target temperature.

[0119] The first threshold and the second threshold may be user-defined.

[0120] For example, taking a wine cabinet as an example, when the ambient temperature is less than 20°C, the compartment temperature of the target compartment is obtained, and the target temperature corresponding to the target compartment is obtained. For example, if the target temperature is 8°C, the compartment temperature of the target compartment is 5°C. The first threshold value is determined to be 6°C according to the target temperature. If the compartment temperature of 5°C is lower than the first threshold value of 6°C, the heating device is controlled to turn on to heat the target compartment to increase the temperature of the target compartment;

[0121] The second temperature sensor continues to collect the actual compartment temperature in the target compartment.

[0122] During the heating process, the compartment temperature gradually increases. When the current compartment temperature is not greater than the second threshold value of 9° C., the heating device is controlled to remain in the on state.

[0123] When the current compartment temperature is greater than the second threshold of 9°C, the heating device is controlled to be turned off and the heating of the target compartment is stopped, so that the temperature in the target compartment can be maintained at around 8°C for a long time, effectively preventing the wine from freezing and achieving the best preservation effect.

[0124] According to the control method of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application, the target adjustment threshold is determined by the target temperature, and the target adjustment threshold is used as the critical value for triggering the start of temperature adjustment. The temperature of the target compartment can be adjusted in a timely manner so that it can be stably maintained near the target temperature, reducing the hysteresis of the temperature adjustment, achieving precise temperature control, and further improving the storage effect of the storage device.

[0125] In some embodiments, determining the target adjustment threshold based on the target temperature may include:

[0126] Obtain a target adjustment threshold corresponding to the target temperature from the target comparison table.

[0127] In this embodiment, the target comparison table is a preset table used to characterize the corresponding relationship between the target temperature and the target adjustment threshold.

[0128] Table 1 illustrates a target comparison table between a gear position (ie, target temperature) and a target adjustment threshold.

[0129] Table 1

[0130] Setting the gear 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 Heating device turned on (first threshold) 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 Heating device off (second threshold) 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21

[0131] In some embodiments, a target lookup table may be determined based on experiments so that the actual temperature in the target compartment can always be maintained within the optimal temperature range.

[0132] In some embodiments, determining the target adjustment threshold based on the target temperature may include:

[0133] The target temperature is processed based on a target formula to determine a target adjustment threshold.

[0134] In this embodiment, the target formula is a quantitative relationship between the target temperature and the target adjustment threshold.

[0135] The target formula can be user-defined, or it can be calculated by a pre-trained network model through historical data. Of course, it can also be obtained through other methods, which is not limited in this application.

[0136] For example, the correlation between the set temperature and the adjustment threshold can be obtained in advance to construct a target formula based on the correlation, so that in the subsequent application process, the target adjustment threshold corresponding to the target temperature can be directly calculated based on the target formula, which is simple and convenient.

[0137] The following describes the specific implementation of this embodiment by taking a heating device as an example.

[0138] In some embodiments, the temperature adjustment device includes a heating device, the target adjustment threshold includes a first threshold and a second threshold, and processing the target temperature based on the target formula to determine the target adjustment threshold may include:

[0139] The first threshold is determined based on the following formula:

[0140] T1 = T0 - a;

[0141] Wherein, T1 is the first threshold; T0 is the target temperature; a is a parameter, 0<a<T0;

[0142] The second threshold is determined based on the following formula:

[0143] T2=T0+b;

[0144] Wherein, T2 is the second threshold; T0 is the target temperature; b is a parameter, 0<b<T0.

[0145] In this embodiment, the values ​​of a and b may be user-defined or determined from historical test data.

[0146] For example, the value of a can be set to 2, 2.5, or other values.

[0147] The value of b can be set to 1, 1.5 or other values.

[0148] In the actual implementation process, for any set temperature, the corresponding target adjustment threshold can be calculated by the formula T1 = T0-a and T2 = T0+b

[0149] Taking a=2 and b=1 as an example, when the target temperature is 5°C, it can be calculated that the first threshold corresponding to 5°C is 3°C, and the first threshold corresponding to 5°C is 6°C; when the target temperature is 20°C, it can be calculated that the first threshold corresponding to 20°C is 18°C, and the first threshold corresponding to 20°C is 21°C.

[0150] According to the control method of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application, by establishing a quantitative relationship between the target temperature and the target adjustment threshold, the target adjustment threshold corresponding to any target temperature can be calculated. The calculation efficiency is high, the calculation results are accurate, and precise temperature control of the storage device can be achieved, which is universal.

[0151] In some embodiments, when the temperature regulating device includes a refrigeration device, after step 110, the method may further include:

[0152] When the ambient temperature is within the second range, obtaining a compartment temperature in a target compartment of the storage device;

[0153] determining a third threshold and a fourth threshold based on the target temperature;

[0154] When the compartment temperature is greater than a third threshold, the refrigeration device is controlled to turn on;

[0155] Reacquiring the compartment temperature within the target compartment;

[0156] When the newly acquired compartment temperature is less than the fourth threshold, the refrigeration device is controlled to be turned off.

[0157] In this embodiment, the third threshold is greater than the fourth threshold.

[0158] The method for determining the third threshold and the fourth threshold is similar to the method for determining the first threshold and the second threshold, and is not described in detail in this application.

[0159] In some embodiments, after step 110, the method may further include:

[0160] In the event that the ambient temperature is not within the target range, the thermostat is controlled to remain closed.

[0161] In this embodiment, the ambient temperature not being within the target range may include: the ambient temperature not being within the first range; or the ambient temperature not being within the second range; or the ambient temperature not being within the first range and not being within the second range.

[0162] For example, when the ambient temperature is not within the first range, such as when the ambient temperature is greater than 20° C., the heating device can be controlled to be in the off state regardless of other conditions.

[0163] According to the control method of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application, by controlling the temperature adjustment device to remain in a closed state when the ambient temperature is not within the target range, the energy consumption of the storage device can be further reduced and the user experience can be improved.

[0164] The control method of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be executed by the control device of the storage device. In the embodiment of the present application, the control device of the storage device executing the control method of the storage device is used as an example to illustrate the control device of the storage device provided in the embodiment of the present application.

[0165] An embodiment of the present application also provides a control device for a storage device.

[0166] The storage device includes a temperature regulating device.
