[0023] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0024] With the development of refrigeration equipment, taking refrigerators as an example, a demonstration mode has evolved for refrigerators sold in stores. However, in current technology, entering demonstration mode requires a complex combination of buttons, and different refrigerator models have various button combinations, making it complicated and cumbersome to enter and exit demonstration mode in the store. If a refrigerator remains in demonstration mode after being sold from the store to the customer's home, it will fail to cool, leading to a higher rate of customer complaints.

[0025] Before introducing the control method of the refrigeration equipment of this application, it is necessary to first introduce the structure of the refrigeration equipment. The refrigeration equipment in this embodiment includes refrigeration components, a Bluetooth module, and a controller. These parts work together to ensure that the internal environment of the refrigeration equipment maintains a constant low temperature.

[0026] The refrigeration assembly is the core of a refrigeration system, responsible for generating cold air and controlling the internal temperature. A typical refrigeration assembly consists of components such as a compressor, condenser, expansion valve, and evaporator. The compressor increases the pressure and temperature of the refrigerant gas by compressing it, thus propelling the refrigerant through the system. The condenser cools the high-temperature gas discharged from the compressor into a liquid state, while the expansion valve reduces the pressure of the high-pressure liquid refrigerant to a low-pressure gaseous state, allowing it to absorb heat in the evaporator. The evaporator, located in the refrigeration chamber of the refrigeration system, is the heat-absorbing component, lowering the temperature using the cold air within the chamber.

[0027] The controller is the command center of the refrigeration equipment, responsible for controlling the operation and temperature settings of each component. The controller can control the compressor's start / stop and operating time based on the set temperature to ensure the internal temperature of the refrigeration equipment remains stable within the set range. In demonstration mode, the controller prevents the compressor from operating; that is, in demonstration mode, the controller prevents the refrigeration components from working. The Bluetooth module is used for communication with external terminals via Bluetooth.

[0028] To address the aforementioned problems, this application first proposes a control method for refrigeration equipment. Please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating the first embodiment of the control method for the refrigeration equipment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the control method for the refrigeration equipment in this embodiment specifically includes steps S101 to S103:

[0029] Step S101: After powering on the cooling device, obtain the flag information of the demonstration mode of the cooling device and detect the Bluetooth beacon signal.

[0030] In this embodiment, when the cooling device is powered on again after a power outage, the controller of the cooling device can read the flag information stored in the memory before the power outage and detect the presence of Bluetooth beacon signals in the external environment via the Bluetooth module to determine whether the cooling device is in a preset environment. In this embodiment, the preset environment can be a retail store, and Bluetooth beacons are set up in the store. The cooling device can determine whether it is in the retail store by detecting the Bluetooth beacon signals.

[0031] Step S102: In response to the flag information being in the enabled mode and a Bluetooth beacon signal being received, the cooling device is controlled to operate in demonstration mode.

[0032] If the controller of the refrigeration equipment obtains the flag information indicating that it is in the enabled mode and the Bluetooth module of the refrigeration equipment can detect and receive the Bluetooth beacon signal, then the controller of the refrigeration equipment can determine that the refrigeration equipment is in the store and that its working mode before the power failure was the demonstration mode. At this time, the controller of the refrigeration equipment will control the refrigeration equipment to work in the demonstration mode.

[0033] Step S103: In response to the absence of a Bluetooth beacon signal or the flag information being in the off mode, the cooling device is controlled to operate in normal working mode.

[0034] If the controller of the refrigeration equipment obtains the flag information as the off mode, then regardless of whether the Bluetooth module of the refrigeration equipment can detect and receive the Bluetooth beacon signal, the controller of the refrigeration equipment will control the refrigeration equipment to work in normal working mode.

[0035] If the controller of the refrigeration equipment obtains the flag information indicating that it is in the enabled mode, but the Bluetooth module of the refrigeration equipment fails to detect and receive the Bluetooth beacon signal, it can be determined that the refrigeration equipment has been sold and is not in the store. Therefore, the controller of the refrigeration equipment will also control the refrigeration equipment to work in the normal working mode.

[0036] Unlike existing technologies, the control method of this application includes: after the cooling device is powered on, acquiring the demonstration mode flag information of the cooling device and detecting the Bluetooth beacon signal; in response to the flag information being in an enabled mode and the Bluetooth beacon signal being received, controlling the cooling device to operate in demonstration mode; in response to the absence of a Bluetooth beacon signal or the flag information being in a disabled mode, controlling the cooling device to operate in normal operating mode. Through the above method, this application can determine whether the cooling device is in a preset environment via the Bluetooth beacon signal, thereby intelligently and accurately controlling the operating mode of the cooling device, reducing the probability of the cooling device failing to exit demonstration mode when leaving the preset environment, and thus reducing the after-sales complaint rate of the cooling device.

[0037] Optionally, based on the above embodiments, when the cooling device is powered on and in normal working mode, it is controlled to enter demonstration mode in response to the flag information being in the on mode and a Bluetooth beacon signal being received; and it is controlled to maintain normal working mode in response to the absence of a Bluetooth beacon signal or the flag information being in the off mode.

[0038] In this embodiment, the flag information of the refrigeration device can be set via a terminal. If the refrigeration device is in normal operating mode after power-on and the flag information is set to "on" via the terminal, the controller of the refrigeration device can read the flag information from the memory before power failure and detect the presence of Bluetooth beacon signals in the external environment via the Bluetooth module to determine if it is in the sales area. If the flag information is "on" and the Bluetooth module of the refrigeration device receives a Bluetooth beacon signal, the controller can switch the refrigeration device from normal operating mode to demonstration mode. If the Bluetooth module does not receive a Bluetooth beacon signal or the flag information is "off," the controller does not need to adjust the operating mode of the refrigeration device and can maintain the normal operating mode.

[0039] Optionally, based on the above embodiments, when the cooling device is powered on and in demonstration mode, in response to the flag information being in the on mode and a Bluetooth beacon signal being received, the cooling device is controlled to maintain the demonstration mode; in response to the absence of a Bluetooth beacon signal or the flag information being in the off mode, the cooling device is controlled to exit the demonstration mode.

[0040] In this embodiment, if the refrigeration device is in demonstration mode after power-on, the controller can read the flag information stored in the memory before power loss and detect the presence of Bluetooth beacon signals in the external environment via the Bluetooth module to determine if it is in the sales area. If the flag information is in the enabled mode and the Bluetooth module of the refrigeration device receives a Bluetooth beacon signal, the controller does not need to adjust the operating mode of the refrigeration device and can maintain the demonstration mode. If the Bluetooth module does not receive a Bluetooth beacon signal or the flag information is in the disabled mode, the controller can switch the refrigeration device from demonstration mode to normal operating mode.

[0041] Optionally, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating the second embodiment of the control method for the refrigeration equipment of this application. Figure 2 As shown, the control method for the refrigeration equipment in this embodiment specifically includes steps S201 to S205:

[0042] Step S201: After powering on the refrigeration equipment, obtain the flag information of the demonstration mode of the refrigeration equipment.

[0043] In this embodiment, when the refrigeration equipment is powered on again after a power outage, the controller of the refrigeration equipment can read the flag information in the memory before the power outage.

[0044] Step S202: Determine whether the Bluetooth beacon that generates the Bluetooth beacon signal is externally placed in the cooling device.

[0045] After the controller of the refrigeration equipment obtains the flag information, the controller needs to determine whether the Bluetooth beacon that generates the Bluetooth beacon signal is externally placed in the refrigeration equipment.

[0046] If the Bluetooth beacon that generates the Bluetooth beacon signal is externally placed in the cooling device, proceed to step S303.

[0047] Step S203: Detect Bluetooth beacon signals.

[0048] If the Bluetooth beacon that generates the Bluetooth beacon signal is placed externally in the cooling device, it means that the Bluetooth beacon is set outside the cooling device. In this case, the cooling device needs to detect the Bluetooth beacon signal through the Bluetooth module.

[0049] Step S204: In response to the flag information being in the enabled mode and a Bluetooth beacon signal being received, the cooling device is controlled to operate in demonstration mode.

[0050] Step S204 is the same as step S102, and will not be repeated here.

[0051] Step S205: In response to the absence of a Bluetooth beacon signal or the flag information being in off mode, the cooling device is controlled to operate in normal working mode.

[0052] Step S205 is the same as step S103, and will not be repeated here.

[0053] Optionally, based on Figure 2 For an example, please refer to the following: Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating the third embodiment of the control method for the refrigeration equipment of this application. Figure 3 As shown, the control method for the refrigeration equipment in this embodiment further includes steps S301 to S303:

[0054] Step S301: In response to the Bluetooth beacon that generates the Bluetooth beacon signal being built into the cooling device, the number of other cooling devices around the cooling device is obtained to determine whether the cooling device is in a preset environment.

[0055] As mentioned earlier, when the cooling device is powered on again after a power outage, the controller of the cooling device can read the flag information in the memory before the power outage. After obtaining the flag information, the controller of the cooling device needs to determine whether the Bluetooth beacon that generates the Bluetooth beacon signal is externally placed in the cooling device.

[0056] If the Bluetooth beacon is placed externally in a cooling device, then as Figure 2The process continues with steps S203 to S205; if the Bluetooth beacon is built into some refrigeration equipment in the store, the controller of the refrigeration equipment with the built-in Bluetooth beacon needs to determine whether the refrigeration equipment itself is in a preset environment based on the number of other refrigeration equipment around it. The specific determination method is described below and will not be described in detail here.

[0057] Step S302: In response to the flag information being in the open mode and the refrigeration device being in the preset environment, the refrigeration device is controlled to work in the demonstration mode.

[0058] When the Bluetooth beacon is built into the cooling device, if the controller of the cooling device obtains the flag information and the cooling device is in the enabled mode, and the controller of the cooling device determines that the cooling device itself is still in the preset environment based on the number of other cooling devices around the cooling device, then the cooling device is controlled to work in the demonstration mode.

[0059] Step S303: In response to the refrigeration equipment being outside the preset environment or the flag information being in the off mode, the refrigeration equipment is controlled to work in the normal operation demonstration mode.

[0060] When the Bluetooth beacon is built into the refrigeration device itself, the controller of the refrigeration device obtains the flag information and determines that the refrigeration device is outside the store, i.e., in the user's home, based on the number of other refrigeration devices around it. In this case, the controller controls the refrigeration device to work in normal working mode.

[0061] Optionally, a method for determining whether a refrigeration device is in a preset environment based on the number of other refrigeration devices around it is as follows: Figure 4 As shown, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 yes Figure 3 A flowchart illustrating an embodiment of step S301. Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment can be achieved through, as follows Figure 4 The method shown implements step S301, specifically including steps S401 to S403:

[0062] Step S401: Obtain the number of other refrigeration devices around the refrigeration device.

[0063] The controller of the refrigeration equipment can communicate with the outside world via Bluetooth module to obtain the number of other refrigeration equipment in the vicinity.

[0064] Step S402: In response to the fact that the number of other refrigeration devices in the vicinity is greater than a preset number threshold, it is determined that the refrigeration device is in a preset environment.

[0065] When the controller of the refrigeration equipment detects that the number of other refrigeration equipment in the vicinity exceeds a preset threshold, it determines that the refrigeration equipment is in a preset environment.

[0066] Step S403: In response to the number of other refrigeration devices in the vicinity being less than or equal to a preset number threshold, it is determined that the refrigeration device is outside the preset environment.

[0067] When the controller of the refrigeration equipment detects that the number of other refrigeration equipment in its vicinity is less than or equal to a preset threshold, it determines that the refrigeration equipment is in a preset environment.

[0068] In this embodiment, the refrigeration equipment is a refrigerator, and the preset environment is a store. When the refrigerator has a built-in Bluetooth beacon, the refrigerator's controller can obtain the number of other refrigerators in the vicinity through the Bluetooth module and determine whether the number is greater than a preset number threshold. If it is greater than the preset number threshold, it is determined that the refrigerator is still in the store. If it is less than or equal to the preset number threshold, it is determined that the refrigerator has been sold and is outside the store.

[0069] In this way, when a cooling device with a built-in Bluetooth beacon exists, this embodiment can determine the environment of the cooling device with the built-in Bluetooth beacon by obtaining the number of other cooling devices around it, thereby intelligently and accurately controlling the working mode of the cooling device with the built-in Bluetooth beacon.

[0070] Optionally, based on the above embodiments, in this embodiment, the method for obtaining the flag information of the demonstration mode is as follows: Figure 5 As shown, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 yes Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating an embodiment of step S101. Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment can be achieved through, as follows Figure 5 The method shown implements the method of obtaining the demonstration mode flag information in step S101, specifically including steps S501 to S502:

[0071] Step S501: Read the status information of the refrigeration equipment before power failure.

[0072] In this embodiment, the controller of the refrigeration equipment includes a memory for storing the status information of the refrigeration equipment. When the refrigeration equipment is powered on again, the controller of the refrigeration equipment can read the status information in the memory of the refrigeration equipment.

[0073] Step S502: Obtain flag information based on status information.

[0074] After the controller of the refrigeration equipment obtains the status information of the refrigeration equipment in the memory, it can parse the status information to obtain the flag bit information. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the refrigeration equipment can also communicate via a terminal. During the power-on process of the refrigeration equipment, the terminal device can send control commands to the refrigeration equipment to change the flag bit information of the refrigeration equipment. In response to the control command to enable demonstration mode, the controller sets the flag bit information to the aforementioned enabled mode; in response to the control command to exit demonstration mode, the controller sets the flag bit information to the aforementioned disabled mode.

[0075] Optionally, in all the above embodiments, the cooling device is configured to forward Bluetooth beacon signals. That is, the Bluetooth module of the cooling device is configured to forward Bluetooth beacon signals. When a single Bluetooth beacon cannot cover the entire preset environment, the Bluetooth module of the cooling device can be set as a forwarding terminal for the Bluetooth beacon signal to increase the coverage area of ​​the Bluetooth beacon signal.

[0076] Optionally, this application further proposes a refrigeration device; please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a structural schematic diagram of the first embodiment of the refrigeration equipment of this application. Figure 6 As shown, the refrigeration device 100 in this embodiment includes a controller 30, a Bluetooth module 20 and a refrigeration component 10 connected to the controller 30, and the controller 30 controls the Bluetooth module 20 and the refrigeration component 10 to work based on the refrigeration device control method described above.

[0077] As mentioned above, the refrigeration component 10 in this embodiment is the core of the refrigeration device 100, responsible for generating cold air and controlling the internal temperature of the refrigeration device 100. In this embodiment, the Bluetooth module 20 is used not only for communication with external terminals via Bluetooth, but also for detecting Bluetooth beacon signals when the refrigeration device 100 is in demonstration mode. The controller 30 can control the compressor's start / stop and operating time according to the set temperature to ensure the internal temperature of the refrigeration device 100 remains stable within the set range. Furthermore, as mentioned above, when the flag information is in the on mode and a Bluetooth beacon signal is received, it determines that the refrigeration device 100 is in a preset environment and controls the refrigeration device 100 to operate in demonstration mode; when no Bluetooth beacon signal is received or the flag information is in the off mode, it controls the refrigeration device 100 to operate in normal operating mode.

[0078] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a structural schematic diagram of the second embodiment of the refrigeration equipment of this application. Figure 7As shown, the refrigeration device 100 in this embodiment may further include a cooling assembly 40 and a defrosting assembly 50. The cooling assembly 40 and defrosting assembly 50 are also connected to the controller 30. The cooling assembly 40 is responsible for transferring heat from the refrigeration chamber to the outside to maintain a low-temperature environment inside the refrigeration device. It typically consists of components such as a fan, evaporator, and drain pipe. The fan circulates air within the refrigeration chamber to transfer heat to the evaporator. The defrosting assembly 50 is used to remove frost from the surface of the refrigeration chamber, completing the defrosting process through heating wires or electric heating elements.

[0079] In other embodiments, taking a refrigerator as an example, the refrigeration device 100 may also include lighting components and ventilation components (not shown). The lighting components and ventilation components provide light sources inside the refrigerator and ensure air circulation to prevent food from developing odors and excessive moisture. In demonstration mode, the refrigeration device 100 can control the lighting components and ventilation components to operate, demonstrating the functions of the refrigeration device 100, and control the refrigeration components 10, 40, and 50, etc., to stop working, thereby reducing the power consumption of the refrigeration device 100 in demonstration mode. After the controller 30 controls the refrigeration device 100 to exit the demonstration mode, the controller 30 needs to control all components of the refrigeration device 100 to operate normally.

[0080] Optionally, this application further proposes a computer-readable storage medium. See also... Figure 8 , Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the computer-readable storage medium of this application.
