[0045] In some embodiments, the universal intelligent dishwasher control module further includes a wireless communication module 6 , and the processor 4 is connected to the user terminal via the wireless communication module 6 .

[0046] Among them, user terminals can be mobile phones, tablet computers and smart wearable devices.

[0047] This embodiment integrates the wireless communication module 6 to give the control module the ability to be remotely controlled. Users can remotely start or pause the washing program, and even adjust the settings during the washing process, through a smartphone or other wireless device, regardless of time and location. This wireless connection function also allows the control module to receive software updates and continuously optimize the washing algorithm and user experience. In addition, the wireless communication module 6 can also send the status information and usage data of the dishwasher to the cloud, provide users with usage reports, and help users better understand and maintain the dishwasher.

[0048] In some embodiments, the universal intelligent dishwasher control module further includes a power management module 7, the processor 4 is connected to the power management module 7, and the power management module 7 is connected to the power input terminal of the dishwasher.

[0049] This embodiment optimizes the energy efficiency of the dishwasher by integrating the power management module 7. The power management module 7 can monitor and adjust the power consumption of the dishwasher to achieve reasonable allocation and use of energy. For example, during peak hours of the power grid, the power management module 7 can automatically adjust the working state of the dishwasher to reduce energy consumption, while during periods with lower electricity prices, more intensive washing tasks can be performed. In addition, the power management module 7 can also automatically enter the sleep mode when the dishwasher is not in use, reducing standby power consumption and extending the service life of the dishwasher.

[0050] In some embodiments, the standardized input interface 31 includes at least one of a temperature sensor interface, a water level sensor interface, a detergent concentration sensor interface, and a humidity sensor interface.

[0051] This embodiment integrates various types of sensor interfaces through the standardized input interface 31, so that the control module can receive and process signals from different sensors. These sensors may include one or more of a temperature sensor, a water level sensor, a detergent concentration, and a humidity sensor, which provide the control module with comprehensive washing environment data. Based on these data, the control module can intelligently adjust the washing program to adapt to different washing needs and conditions. This multi-sensor integrated design not only improves the washing efficiency, but also ensures the safety and reliability of the washing process.

[0052] In some embodiments, the standardized output interface 32 includes at least one of a water pump control interface, a heater control interface, a water spray control interface, and a fan control interface.

[0053] This embodiment integrates multiple actuator control interfaces through the standardized output interface 32, so that the processor 4 can accurately control the actuators of the dishwasher, such as the water pump, heater, water spray system and fan. This diverse actuator control capability enables the dishwasher to automatically adjust the water flow, temperature and air flow according to the needs of the washing program, thereby achieving a more efficient and energy-saving washing process. In addition, this control capability also improves the adaptability of the dishwasher, enabling it to handle various types of tableware and washing tasks.

[0054] For example, processor 4, as the brain of the universal intelligent dishwasher control module, can realize precise control of the dishwasher washing process. First, processor 4 intelligently determines whether to start the heater to adjust the water temperature to the optimal washing temperature through the real-time water temperature data received by the temperature sensor. If the water temperature is too low, processor 4 will send instructions to the heater to gradually increase the water temperature until the preset washing temperature is reached.

[0055] At the same time, the data provided by the water level sensor enables the processor 4 to monitor and control the operation of the water pump to ensure that the water level in the dishwasher is appropriate, neither overflowing nor insufficient, and to provide sufficient water for washing. When the processor 4 receives a signal that the water level reaches a preset value, it will start the water pump to circulate the water during the washing process.

[0056] The data from the detergent concentration sensor helps the processor 4 understand whether the current detergent concentration is appropriate. If the detergent concentration is insufficient, the processor 4 will remind the user to add detergent through the user interaction module, or automatically adjust the amount of detergent in some advanced models.

[0057] After the data from the humidity sensor is fed back to the processor 4, it can determine the dryness inside the dishwasher. At the end of the washing cycle, if the humidity is too high, the processor 4 will start the fan to speed up air circulation and help the dishes dry quickly.

[0058] In addition, the processor 4 will intelligently control the switch and intensity of the water spray system according to the different stages of washing to ensure that the detergent can be effectively sprayed on the dishes to achieve deep cleaning. During the entire washing process, the processor 4 receives signals from various sensors in real time and dynamically adjusts the working status of each actuator to achieve an efficient, energy-saving and user-friendly washing experience.

[0059] In some embodiments, the standardized output interface 32 also includes an alarm control interface.

[0060] This embodiment improves the safety and user experience of the dishwasher by adding an alarm control interface to the standardized output interface 32. When the dishwasher detects an abnormal situation, such as water leakage, overheating, or detergent leakage, the alarm control interface can automatically trigger the alarm, emit an audible and visual warning, and remind the user to take measures. This real-time safety monitoring and warning mechanism not only protects the safety of the user, but also reduces the risk of malfunction of the dishwasher.

[0061] For example, when the water level sensor detects that the water level inside the dishwasher rises abnormally, the alarm control interface will immediately activate the alarm, sound a warning, and prompt the user to check the dishwasher's drainage system.

[0062] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the universal intelligent dishwasher control module further includes a housing 8 , in which the first universal I / O port 1 , the second universal I / O port 2 and the processor 4 are located.

[0063] This embodiment provides physical protection and compact design by integrating all key components of the control module into a housing 8. This housing 8 design not only protects the internal components from dust, moisture and other potential damage, but also improves the overall stability and durability of the module. In addition, the compact design of the housing 8 makes the control module easy to install and integrate into various dishwasher models, simplifying the production and maintenance process.

[0064] For example, on a dishwasher production line, workers can quickly fix the housing 8 of the control module to the appropriate position of the dishwasher and connect all necessary sensors and actuators through standardized interfaces to achieve rapid assembly and deployment.

[0065] In some embodiments, the connector 3 may be disposed inside or outside the housing 8 , and the housing of the connector itself may provide support and protection for the standardized input interface 31 and the standardized output interface 32 .

[0066] In some embodiments, the housing 8 is formed with heat dissipation holes 81 .

[0067] In this embodiment, heat dissipation holes 81 are formed on the housing 8 to improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the control module. These heat dissipation holes 81 allow air to circulate and help dissipate the heat generated by the processor 4 and other electronic components during operation. A good heat dissipation design not only ensures the stability of the control module during long-term operation, but also extends its service life and reduces the risk of performance degradation or damage due to overheating.

[0068] For example, after the dishwasher has been running for a long time, the processor 4 of the control module may generate a lot of heat. The heat dissipation holes 81 allow the heat to be dissipated through air circulation, preventing the processor 4 from overheating and ensuring the continuous and stable operation of the control module.

[0069] This embodiment proposes a universal intelligent dishwasher control module, which aims to solve the problems of traditional dishwasher control modules, such as strong specialization, poor compatibility, and difficult upgrade and maintenance, through highly integrated and intelligent design. The control module adopts standardized input and output interfaces, is compatible with a variety of sensors and actuators, and realizes precise control and management of the dishwasher washing process.

[0070] First, the control module monitors the key parameters of the washing process in real time through the integration of various sensors such as temperature sensors, water level sensors, detergent concentration sensors and humidity sensors. These sensors provide comprehensive data support for the processor 4, enabling it to intelligently adjust the washing strategy according to actual washing needs. For example, the processor 4 can control the switch and power of the heater according to the data of the water temperature sensor to maintain the optimal washing temperature; according to the data of the water level sensor, control the start and stop of the water pump to ensure the appropriate amount of water supply; according to the data of the detergent concentration sensor, remind the user to add detergent or automatically adjust the amount of detergent; according to the data of the humidity sensor, control the operation of the fan to accelerate the drying process of the dishes.

[0071] Secondly, the control module accurately controls the working status of key actuators such as water pumps, heaters, water spray systems and fans through standardized output interfaces. These actuators work together according to the instructions of processor 4 to achieve an efficient and energy-saving washing process. For example, the water pump is responsible for providing stable water pressure and flow, the heater ensures that the washing water temperature is appropriate, the water spray system sprays the detergent evenly on the dishes, and the fan accelerates air circulation after washing to help the dishes dry quickly.

[0072] In addition, the control module also integrates the user interaction module and the wireless communication module 6, providing convenient user operation and remote control capabilities. Users can intuitively set the washing program and parameters through the touch screen and monitor the washing status and progress in real time; through the wireless communication module 6, users can also remotely start or pause the washing program, adjust the settings, and even receive software updates and usage reports.

[0073] The control module also uses a power management module 7 and a heat dissipation design to ensure stable operation and long-term durability of the module. The power management module 7 optimizes energy efficiency and reduces energy consumption; the heat dissipation design improves heat dissipation efficiency and prevents overheating through heat dissipation holes 81 on the housing 8.

[0074] Finally, the modular design of the control module and the integrated housing 8 simplify the production and maintenance process and improve the versatility and adaptability of the product. This design not only reduces the manufacturer's R&D and production costs, but also speeds up the product's launch, meeting the market's expectations for smart home appliances.

[0075] To sum up, this technical solution realizes the intelligent upgrade of dishwashers through an innovative universal intelligent control module, provides an efficient, energy-saving, safe, convenient and personalized washing experience, promotes the development of smart home technology, and meets the needs of modern families for smart home appliances.
