[0026] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0027] In the embodiments of the present invention, words such as "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the embodiments of the present invention should not be interpreted as being more preferred or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a specific way.

[0028] In the following, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of the embodiments of the present utility model, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0029] First, refer to Figure 1 , the embodiment of the utility model provides an anti-interference electric water heater control device, including a main control module, a display module, an input module and a communication module;

[0030] The input module includes a touch key unit, the touch key unit includes a touch key circuit 400 and an anti-interference circuit 500, the anti-interference circuit 500 is used to filter interference information of the touch key circuit 400, the touch key circuit 400 is used to obtain touch information, and the anti-interference circuit 500 includes a plurality of anti-interference capacitors;

[0031] The main control module includes a main control chip and a peripheral circuit of the main control chip. The peripheral circuit includes a thin code switch circuit 100. The thin code switch circuit 100 is used to input the selected model information to the main control chip;

[0032] The display module is used to display the display information sent by the main control chip;

[0033] The communication module includes a WiFi communication circuit, which is used to send the instruction information of the main control chip to the electric water heater, receive feedback information from the electric water heater, and send the feedback information to the main control chip.

[0034] It should be noted that the control method of the main control module adopts the existing control method.

[0035] Specifically, the touch button circuit 400 of the touch button unit can obtain the button touch information when the button is touched. The button touch information is processed by the anti-interference circuit 500 and sent to the main control module. After the main control chip of the main control module receives the button touch information, it generates instruction information, or the main control chip receives the button scanning information obtained by the button unit to generate instruction information. The button touch information is the electrical information obtained after the button is touched, and the instruction information is sent to the WiFi communication circuit, and the instruction information is sent to the electric water heater through the WiFi communication circuit, so as to control the operation of the electric water heater. After the main control chip receives the button touch information, if the button touch information is the button touch information related to the setting parameters, it enters the parameter setting mode to perform the corresponding parameter setting. After the anti-interference circuit 500 processes the button touch information, the anti-interference ability of the button can be improved to avoid the interference of the hand during use, resulting in the button not responding, or the button automatically responding. The command information of the main control chip is sent to the electric water heater through the WiFi communication circuit, and the feedback information of the electric water heater is received, and the feedback information is sent to the main control chip, so as to complete the communication between the main control chip and the electric water heater. Since WiFi communication is not easily affected by obstruction or direction, the control instructions sent by the control device can control the electric water heater, unlike the traditional infrared signal which is easily obstructed, resulting in no response of the electric water heater. The thin code switch circuit 100 inputs the selected model information to the main control chip, and the main control chip selects different electric water heater models. For example, when the thin code switch inputs the first switch information, the main control chip turns off the electric water heater, when the thin code switch inputs the second switch information, the main control chip selects the volume of the electric water heater as 50L, and when the thin code switch inputs the third switch information, the main control chip selects the volume of the electric water heater as 60L. After receiving the feedback data signal of the electric water heater, the main control chip generates corresponding display information and sends the display information to the display module, and the display module displays the display information, which specifically includes the water temperature, water storage volume, air temperature and humidity, date, working status of the electric water heater, etc., which are not limited here.

[0036] In some optional real-time examples, the electric water heater control device is powered by a voltage module, and the voltage conversion unit of the voltage module converts the voltage of the power supply and inputs it into the main control module, touch button unit, communication module and display module respectively.

[0037] In some optional embodiments, the main control chip peripheral circuit further includes an alarm circuit 200, and the alarm circuit 200 is used to sound an alarm after receiving the alarm information of the main control chip.

[0038] Specifically, refer to Figure 2The main control chip uses R7FC908, and the alarm circuit 200 includes a resistor R32, a transistor Q1, resistors R30, R31, and a buzzer BZ1. After the pin 12 of the main control chip R7FC908 outputs the alarm information, it is matched by the resistor R32 and amplified by the transistor Q1, and then input to the buzzer BZ1, and the buzzer BZ1 then sounds an alarm. Specifically, it can be an alarm for the water temperature of the water heater to be too high, a short circuit, etc., and there is no specific limitation.

[0039] In some optional embodiments, the peripheral circuit of the main control chip further includes a reset circuit 300, and the reset circuit 300 is used to generate reset information to the main control chip.

[0040] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 The reset circuit 300 includes a resistor R25 and a capacitor C4. The resistor R25 obtains reset information after matching the input voltage. The capacitor C4 filters the reset information and inputs it into the pin 2 of the main control chip R7FC908. The main control chip R7FC908 resets after receiving the reset information.

[0041] In some optional embodiments, the anti-interference capacitor uses a 6pF capacitor.

[0042] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 , the anti-interference circuit 500 includes capacitors C19-C22 and capacitors C24-C27, and the interference information in the touch information input by the touch key is filtered out by capacitors C19-C22 and C24-C27. By adopting a 6pF capacitor, the anti-interference ability of the key is improved to avoid the key not responding or the key automatically responding due to the interference of the hand during use. Each touch key is increased with a 6PF capacitor, and the sensitivity of the touch key is improved at the same time. When the touch panel is used, the response is slow. When the power supply is unstable and the interference is large, there is an obvious phenomenon of no response to the key. It has been verified by experiments that it is most appropriate to select a 6PF capacitor to filter the interference.

[0043] In some optional embodiments, the touch button circuit 400 includes a chip YS806 and a peripheral circuit of the chip YS806.

[0046] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 The voice playback circuit includes a chip NY5P085AS8. The power supply voltage is input to pin 6 of the chip NY5P085AS8.
