AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing refrigerators are inefficient in terms of energy consumption and temperature control, especially when the door is opened and closed or large objects are placed, the temperature changes significantly, and they fail to effectively utilize the predicted temperature of the storage compartment for constant temperature control.

Method used

By combining thermoelectric elements and cooling circulation devices, intelligent temperature control of the storage compartment is achieved through sensors and processors. The cooling circulation and thermoelectric element drive are optimized using temperature prediction models. Combined with door opening and closing times and sensor data, the cooling strategy is dynamically adjusted to reduce temperature fluctuations.

Benefits of technology

It improves the refrigerator's energy efficiency, reduces temperature changes when the door is opened and closed and when large objects are placed, and achieves more precise temperature control and energy-saving effects.
