For example, most cosmetics are hot, cold, damp and sun-proof; therefore, for the preservation of cosmetics, the most suitable temperature is about 15 ℃, the humidity is preferably not higher than 75% RH, and the maximum ultraviolet intensity is preferably lower than 800 lux. For clothes, a proper amount of ultraviolet rays is helpful for sterilization and disinfection (principle of clothes drying), and generation of insect eggs and mold is inhibited, and the humidity is preferably less than 70%.

The container can be a box structure or a drawer structure, the invention is described by the box structure, the invention provides a structural schematic diagram of the container which is a box, as shown in fig. 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9, the box comprises a door 21, the door can rotate and is controlled by a rotating motor, so as to realize the automatic opening and closing of the box.

The colored glass can slide to the light receiving surface along the sliding rails on the two sides. The sliding is controlled by a motor (e.g., a motor drives a slider-crank mechanism). Wherein the box further comprises an inner wall 261 and an outer wall 262 between which a dehumidification module, a humidity control module and a power module are arranged. The sensor module comprises a first sensor module 291 for detecting the environment in the container and a second sensor module 292 for acquiring the weight of the articles in the container, wherein the first sensor module 291 specifically comprises a temperature sensor for acquiring temperature data in the container, a humidity sensor for acquiring humidity data in the container, an ultraviolet sensor for acquiring ultraviolet intensity data in the container, and an ultraviolet sensor for determining whether articles are put into the light sensor by acquiring the change of visible light in the container.

The humidity control module comprises a dehumidifying device 254 for dehumidifying and a humidifying device 251 for humidifying, wherein the illumination intensity control module is a controllable ultraviolet light source.
In the temperature control module, if the temperature is increased, a common heater scheme, such as an electric heater, can be adopted. The temperature is reduced, and a semiconductor refrigeration scheme, such as a semiconductor refrigeration piece, can be adopted.
Wherein the dehumidification device is a high cost and low cost solution.
The high-cost scheme is that a small fan is arranged in a container by utilizing the working principle of a dehumidifier, and a heat exchanger is connected behind the fan; when dehumidification is needed, the fan is used for pumping the humid air into the heat exchanger, the moisture of the air in the heat exchanger is condensed into water drops, and then the dry air is discharged into the box.
The low-cost scheme utilizes a common moisture absorption product in the market, namely a moisture absorption box (or a moisture removal box). The moisture absorption box (the main component is calcium chloride particles) is arranged in the container, and when the container needs to be dehumidified, the contact area between the moisture absorption box and the air in the container is increased; when dehumidification is not required, contact with the inside air is isolated. An implementation is now illustrated: a space is arranged between the inner wall and the outer wall of the container, a small dehumidification box can be placed in the space, and a movable small door is separated from the space and the interior of the container; the wicket slides along a particular track, and the sliding process is controlled by a motor (e.g., a motor drives a slider-crank mechanism). When the small door is closed, the dehumidification box is not contacted with the air inside; the opening degree of the small door determines the contact area of the dehumidification box and the internal air, and the dehumidification efficiency of the container is influenced. The illustration will be supplemented later.
The humidifying module can adopt the existing common humidifying technology, such as ultrasonic humidifying and centrifugal humidifying.
If the illumination intensity control module reduces the illumination intensity, colored glass (such as pink, gray, green, brown, yellow, etc.) can be adopted; the principle is that sunglasses shield ultraviolet rays. When the light receiving surface of the container is covered by the colored glass, part of ultraviolet rays can be blocked by the colored glass, and the intensity of the ultraviolet rays in the container is naturally reduced. An implementation is now illustrated: in this scenario, the light-receiving surface of the container is on the top surface; the top of the container is composed of a plurality of layers of colored glass sheets, each layer of glass sheet can slide along the tracks on two sides of the top surface, the sliding process is controlled by a motor (for example, the motor drives a crank-slider mechanism), and the operation of the motor is controlled by a processor; each layer of glass sheet is lighter in color; the greater the number of layers of colored glass covering the light-receiving surface, the darker the color of the entire light-receiving surface, and therefore the greater the ability to block ultraviolet light. The processor controls the number of layers of colored glass coated on the light-receiving surface to control the internal ultraviolet intensity. The illustration will be supplemented later.
The illumination intensity control module enhances illumination and can adopt a controllable illumination mode. The control principle is the principle of brightness adjustment of the household table lamp, but the light source is an artificial ultraviolet light source.
In still further embodiments, the recognition module 111 includes a voice recognition module, a scan recognition module, a visual recognition module, and a radio frequency recognition module, and the voice recognition module is configured to recognize the type of the article by voice and send the recognition result to the processor; the scanning identification module is used for identifying the type of the article by scanning the bar code on the article and sending the identification result to the processor; the visual identification module is used for identifying the type of the article by acquiring the article image and sending an identification result to the processor; the radio frequency identification module is used for identifying the type of the article by acquiring the radio frequency signal of the article and sending the identification result to the processor;
the voice recognition module, the scanning recognition module, the visual recognition module and the radio frequency recognition module are respectively connected with the processor.
The system further comprises a cloud server used for receiving the article name input by the user and identifying the article type, and the central controller is connected with the cloud server. After the user inputs the name of the article through the central controller, the central controller acquires the type corresponding to the name of the article from the cloud server and stores the acquired type in the central controller.
The present invention also provides a flow chart of a preferred embodiment of a storage method, as shown in fig. 10, wherein the method comprises the steps of:
step S100, after the sensor module detects that an article is put into the container, the type of the article is obtained through the identification module, and the processor sends the identified type of the article to the central controller;
s200, a sensor module acquires environmental data in the container and sends the environmental data to a central controller;
step S300, the central controller acquires a standard environment data range corresponding to the type of the article, judges whether the environment data sent by the sensor module is in the standard environment data range, and if not, the central controller sends a corresponding control signal to the processor;
and S400, pushing a replacement prompt to the intelligent equipment of the user by the processor according to the received corresponding control signal or starting an environment control module according to the received corresponding control signal to control the environment data in the container to be in a standard environment data range corresponding to the type of the article.
In specific implementation, in step S100, when the user puts the same into a container, the information of the article may be automatically identified through image recognition, two-dimensional code scanning or RFID technology, or the user may input the article information through a central controller or other devices. The user can input an article by means of voice, scanning, visual recognition, RFID recognition and manual input.
In step S200, the sensor module in the container reads the analog quantities of the temperature, humidity, and ultraviolet of the storage environment in real time, generates corresponding environment data according to the analog quantities, and immediately transmits the environment data and the ID signal of the container to the central controller through the wireless communication module after the processor generates the environment data.
Step S300, after receiving the numerical value transmitted by the container, the central controller identifies the identity information of the container through the ID signal, analyzes and obtains the label of the article stored in the container, and further obtains the storage standard corresponding to the label; and then, the system compares the received environment value with the storage standard, and specifically, the system respectively judges the size relations of the temperature, the humidity and the ultraviolet intensity of the environment value with the temperature range, the humidity range and the ultraviolet intensity range of the storage standard. And the system can generate corresponding control signals according to specific results of data analysis, and immediately transmit the control signals to a specific container to control the temperature, humidity and light intensity control device arranged in the system.
As shown in fig. 11, some possible cases are listed to illustrate the rules of the system analysis (the minimum humidity and minimum uv intensity criteria are not added in this case):
if the environment value is within the storage criteria range, the storage environment meets the storage criteria, the central controller does no further action, and the system remains to receive and process the data transmitted by the container.
On the contrary, if the environment value does not meet the storage standard, the central controller can generate a corresponding control signal according to the analysis result, and the control signal is sent to a specific container in real time through the wireless communication module after reminding the user; at the same time, the system keeps receiving and processing the data transmitted by the containers, generating corresponding control signals in real time according to the environmental values.
In step S400, after one container receives the control signal sent by the central controller, the processor may prompt the user to place the container in a more suitable environment according to the control signal, or directly control the temperature, humidity, and ultraviolet intensity controller installed inside to optimize the environment. For example, when the system generates control signals of "temperature +" and "ultraviolet-", the system may alert the user (intermittently repeated, such as once every 40 seconds), such as "owner, too cold cheer, through the speaker power amplifier; the host, the light of which is too strong, pushes a reminder to the intelligent device (such as a mobile phone and a computer) of the user; the user can command the central controller to send the generated control signal to the container through the central controller or the intelligent device so as to start the environment control module and optimize the storage environment.
Specifically, step S100 is preceded by the steps of:
and S, storing standard environment data corresponding to the type of the article in a central controller in advance.
In specific implementation, each type of label corresponds to a set of storage standards of temperature, humidity and ultraviolet rays. The system has a set of common labels and storage standards stored locally. These standards can be updated and augmented over time through cloud computing technology. The user can manually/audibly modify and add storage criteria at the central controller's interactive interface, and the system automatically remembers these customized criteria to learn the new storage criteria.
By way of example, some common tags and their storage standards, which are local to the system, are listed in table 1 below, for reference only:

Wherein, step S100 specifically includes the steps of:
step S101, after the sensor module detects that articles are put into the container, the processor sends a signal containing the ID of the container to the central controller;
step S102, the identification module automatically identifies the type of the article or receives article data input by a user to acquire the type of the article, and sends the acquired type of the article to the processor;
and step S103, the processor sends the acquired type of the article and the container ID to the central controller through the wireless communication module.
In specific implementation, when a user puts a same object into a container, the information of the object can be automatically identified through technologies such as image identification, two-dimensional code scanning or RFID, or the user can input the information of the object through a central controller or other equipment.
The system may automatically determine which container the item is placed in a number of ways.
Method example 1 using a weight sensor:
when a sample is put into a container, the high-precision weight sensor senses the weight increase, the processor of the container observes the change of the value of the weight sensor, and a 'article put-in' signal with a container ID is sent to the central controller through the wireless communication module; after receiving the 'article put in' signal, the central controller analyzes the ID of the container, thereby judging which container the article is put in. Similarly, when a sample is removed from a container, the weight sensor reading returns to its original state (the state where no sample is placed in the container), the container sends a "removal of product" signal with the container ID to the central controller, and the system determines from which container the product was removed in the same manner and sends a "stop" signal to the container to terminate its monitoring and control functions for the environment.
Method example 2 using a light sensor:
the principle of this method is different from that of method example 1, and the process is similar to example 1. The method is based on the principle that: when a sample is put in/taken out of a container, the light sensor senses a significant change in light sensation.
The user can input an article by means of voice, scanning, visual recognition, RFID recognition and manual input.
When the voice is used for recording, the user informs the name of the system object by voice. After the name of the article is determined through voice recognition of the system, the type of the article is analyzed by utilizing a cloud computing technology, and a type label is added to the article in the system.
When the Chinese medicine is scanned and recorded, if the medicine is recorded by a user, the Chinese medicine electronic supervision code/two-dimensional code on the medicine package is placed in front of a code scanner of a central controller/container; if other articles are recorded, scanning the commodity bar code/two-dimensional code on the package; the system scans codes, identifies the names of the articles, analyzes the types of the entered articles by utilizing the cloud computing technology, and adds a type label to the articles in the system.
Visual recognition mode: the camera of the central controller/container captures the image of the article, and the system performs visual identification processing on the image to obtain the information of the article. The processing can be carried out locally or in the cloud.
RFID identification: if the stored item has an RFID, the RFID reader of the central controller/container obtains its information by identifying the RFID of the item.
When the user inputs the content in a manual mode, the user can directly select a category label for the input object on an interactive interface of the central controller; the name of the article can also be directly input, and the system analyzes the type of the article and adds a type label to the article by using a cloud computing technology according to the input name of the medicine.
After entering an item, the system stores the item's category label locally and associates the item name with the category label. Along with the more and more types of input objects, the more and more types of labels local to the device are stored, so that the knowledge quantity about the types of the objects is larger and larger, and the subsequent input process of a user is facilitated. It follows that the device has the ability to learn the type of item locally.
Further, step S200 specifically includes the steps of:
step S201, after receiving the type identification data of the article, the central controller sends a starting signal to a processor of a container for storing the article;
step S202, after the processor receives the starting signal, the sensor module is controlled to detect environmental data in the container;
step S203, after the sensor module reads the environmental data in the container once every first preset time, the sensor module transmits the environmental data to the processor, and the processor sends the environmental data to the central controller through the wireless communication module.
In specific implementation, after a user successfully inputs a same article in the system, the system marks the storage of the article and sends a starting signal to a container for storing the article; after the container receives the starting signal, the processor triggers the temperature and humidity sensor and the ultraviolet sensor to start working, and therefore real-time monitoring of the environment is started.
After the monitoring starts, the temperature and humidity in the container and the ultraviolet sensor read the temperature, humidity and ultraviolet analog quantity of the storage environment in real time, and the original analog quantity is expressed by the form of voltage (V). These voltage values are transmitted to the processor by electronic means, and then the processor converts the voltage values into readable values (i.e. in units of ℃,% RH, lux), which are hereinafter referred to as "environment values". After the processor generates the environment value, the environment value and the ID signal of the container are transmitted to the central controller through the wireless communication module in real time.
The generation and transmission process of the environment value is repeated intermittently, for example, every 1 minute; the process can only be terminated by a "stop" signal sent by the central controller.
Furthermore, the central controller may communicate with the smart device of the user; the user can read the environment value in real time through intelligent equipment (mobile phone and computer) to know the storage environment of the goods and the working condition of the container.
In specific implementation, the step S400 of pushing, by the processor, the replacement reminder to the smart device of the user according to the received corresponding control signal specifically includes:
step S401, when the processor pushes the intelligent device of the user to be replaced and reminded according to the received corresponding control signal within a second preset time, the sensor module detects that the environment in the container is not in the standard environment data range, the processor starts the environment control module according to the received corresponding control signal, and the environment data in the container is controlled to be in the standard environment data range corresponding to the type of the article.
In specific implementation, if the user does not operate any device or apparatus within a certain period of time (for example, 5 minutes) and does not move the container to a more suitable environment, the system actively stops the alert, the central control automatically sends an instant control signal to the container, and the processor instructs the temperature control device to increase the temperature inside the container according to the control signal (in this example, "temperature +", and "ultraviolet-") and instructs the light control device to decrease the illumination intensity inside the container.
In summary, the present invention provides an intelligent storage system and a storage method thereof, wherein the system comprises a central controller and a plurality of containers, the containers are internally provided with an identification module, a sensor module, a processor, a wireless communication module and an environment control module, and after the sensor module detects that an article is placed in the container, the identification module identifies the stored article; the sensor module monitors environmental parameters in real time, and the environmental parameters are processed by the processor and are transmitted to the central controller in combination with the container ID and the identification result of the article; the central controller analyzes the environmental parameters of the container, generates an environmental control signal according to the analysis result and forwards the environmental control signal to the environmental control module through the processor; and the environment control module adjusts the environment parameters in the container to a value range of the standard storage environment of the goods according to the environment control signal. The invention can automatically judge the proper storage standard according to different article types, autonomously and comprehensively monitor and analyze the storage environment of the articles, and intelligently control and optimize the storage environment of the articles, thereby providing convenience for the storage of articles which are not suitable for being stored in a refrigerator in family life.
