Detergent dispensing control method, washing machine, and system
Abstract
A detergent dispensing control method comprises the steps of: S1: obtaining a current clothes load through a clothes weight detection device; detecting ingredients of a detergent through a detergent ingredient detection device, and obtaining detergent detection data; S2: analyzing the detergent detection data, and obtaining a detergent category corresponding to the detergent detection data; S3: according to the detergent category and the clothes load, recommending a detergent dispensing amount; and S4: controlling a detergent dispensing device to dispense the detergent by the washing machine. According to the present disclosure, the detergent ingredient detection device is used for identifying the detergent, clothes to be washed are automatically weighed, the most proper detergent dispensing amount is recommended according to an identification result and the clothes load, and the detergent dispensing device is controlled for dispensing the detergent.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modified1 . A detergent dispensing control method comprising:

2 . The detergent dispensing control method according to claim 1 , wherein step S1 also comprises scanning clothes fabric components through a clothes material identification device to obtain clothes identification data;
step S2 also comprises analyzing the clothes identification data to obtain clothes component information corresponding to the clothes identification data; and step S3 also comprises recommending the detergent dispensing amount according to the detergent category, the clothes component information and the clothes load.
3 . The detergent dispensing control method according to claim 1 , wherein the detergent detection data corresponds to the detergent category, and a corresponding relationship between the detergent detection data and the detergent category is stored in the washing machine and/or a cloud; and
the detergent category and the clothes load correspond to the detergent dispensing amount, and corresponding relationships between the detergent category, the clothes load and the detergent dispensing amount are stored in the washing machine and/or the cloud.
4 . The detergent dispensing control method according to claim 2 , wherein the clothes identification data corresponds to the clothes component information, and a corresponding relationship between the clothes identification data and the clothes component information is stored in the washing machine and/or the cloud; and
the clothes component information, the detergent category and the clothes load correspond to the detergent dispensing amount, and corresponding relationships between the clothes component information, the detergent category, the clothes load and the detergent dispensing amount are stored in the washing machine and/or the cloud.
5 . The detergent dispensing control method according to claim 1 , wherein in step S3, the washing machine recommends the detergent dispensing amount according to an offline data table stored in the washing machine; or
the cloud recommends the detergent dispensing amount according to big data.
6 . The detergent dispensing control method according to claim 1 , wherein the detergent ingredient detection device is a micro spectrum analyzer.
7 . A washing machine, in which the method of claim 1 is carried out, wherein the washing machine comprises:
a detergent ingredient detection device for detecting ingredients of a detergent and obtaining detergent detection data;
a clothes weight detection device for automatically weighing clothes put into the washing machine and obtaining the clothes load;
a controller for receiving the signal of the clothes load and the signal of detergent ingredient detection, recommending the detergent dispensing amount according to signals received and controlling a detergent dispensing device to dispense the detergent; and
the detergent dispensing device for dispensing detergent according to the dispensing amount indicated by the controller.
8 . The washing machine according to claim 7 , further comprises:
a clothes material identification device for detecting the clothes fabric components to obtain clothes identification data.
9 . The washing machine according to claim 7 , wherein the detergent ingredient detection device is installed in a detergent box of the washing machine and is in integral arrangement with the detergent box; and
a probe of the detergent ingredient detection device is in contact with the detergent, and a power connector of the detergent ingredient detection device is connected with a main power supply of the washing machine.
10 . A system, in which the method of claim 1 is carried out, wherein the system comprises:
the washing machine for obtaining the detergent detection data, the clothes identification data and the clothes load and uploading the detergent detection data, the clothes identification data and the clothes load to a cloud server to be analyzed; and
the cloud server for recommending the detergent dispensing amount after receiving and analyzing the data information uploaded by the washing machine, and sending the detergent dispensing amount to the washing machine to dispense the detergent.
11 . The detergent dispensing control method according to claim 2 , wherein the detergent detection data corresponds to the detergent category, and a corresponding relationship between the detergent detection data and the detergent category is stored in the washing machine and/or a cloud; and
the detergent category and the clothes load correspond to the detergent dispensing amount, and corresponding relationships between the detergent category, the clothes load and the detergent dispensing amount are stored in the washing machine and/or the cloud.
12 . The detergent dispensing control method according to claim 2 , wherein in step S3, the washing machine recommends the detergent dispensing amount according to an offline data table stored in the washing machine; or
the cloud recommends the detergent dispensing amount according to big data.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
