According to the defrosting method of the conventional refrigerator, a defrosting temperature sensing bag is arranged at the upper part of an evaporator, defrosting is carried out by a method of naturally rising hot air, the defrosting time is too long due to the fact that the hot air rises slowly, defrosting energy consumption is increased, the temperature of an evaporation cavity is too high, and power consumption is increased in a defrosting recovery period. When defrosting is carried out at the lower part of the defrosting process of the evaporator, the local temperature of the upper part is still below zero due to the fact that frost exists on the upper part of the evaporator, when the temperature of the upper part of the evaporator reaches the defrosting temperature, the unit basically reaches a defrosting exit condition, at the moment, the residual ice in the air duct still cannot reach the defrosting temperature, the residual ice in the air duct cannot be melted, and the refrigerating performance of the unit is affected.
The invention provides a refrigerator defrosting control method. The refrigerator is provided with a first defrosting heater and a second defrosting heater; the first defrosting heater is arranged in the middle or at the upper part of the evaporator; the second defrosting heater is arranged at the lower part of the evaporator. The first defrosting heater may be disposed at a middle position of the evaporator, or may be disposed at an upper portion of the evaporator, and the second defrosting heater may be disposed directly below the evaporator.
Fig. 2 is a schematic view of a defrosting heater installation position according to the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the first defrosting heater 1 is disposed at the middle of the evaporator 6; the second defrosting heater 2 is arranged at the lower part of the evaporator 6. The upper part of the evaporator 6 is provided with a first defrosting bulb 3 for detecting a first temperature t1 at the upper part of the evaporator, for example, the first defrosting bulb 3 is arranged on an upper pipeline of the evaporator and detects the air temperature at the position of the upper pipeline of the evaporator; and a second defrosting thermal bulb 4 is arranged at the air duct opening 7 of the evaporation cavity and is used for detecting a second temperature t2 at the air duct opening 7 of the evaporation cavity. The air duct opening 7 is an air duct inlet for blowing air in the evaporation cavity into the refrigeration cavity.
Preferably, a turbulent fan 5 is arranged in the evaporation cavity, specifically, the turbulent fan 5 is arranged below the second defrosting heater, so that the temperature in the evaporation cavity is disturbed during defrosting, and the defrosting process is accelerated.
Fig. 1 is a method schematic diagram of an embodiment of a refrigerator defrosting control method provided by the invention.
As shown in fig. 1, according to an embodiment of the present invention, the refrigerator control method includes at least step S110 and step S120.
And step S110, when the refrigerator meets defrosting conditions, controlling the first defrosting heater and the second defrosting heater to work so as to defrost.
Specifically, whether the refrigerator unit meets a defrosting condition or not is judged, when the defrosting condition is met, the compressor is controlled to stop, the first defrosting heater 1 and the second defrosting heater 2 are electrified to work, and the refrigerator unit starts defrosting. And if the defrosting condition is not met, the unit continues to operate according to the set logic.
Preferably, when the working time of the first defrosting heater and the working time of the second defrosting heater reach a first preset time, the turbulent flow fan is controlled to operate. Namely, when the working time T1 of the first defrosting heater is more than or equal to Ta (the first preset time), the operation of the turbulent flow fan is controlled, the temperature in the evaporation cavity is disturbed, and the defrosting process is accelerated. The first preset time may be specifically a time required for the lower temperature of the evaporator to reach a preset temperature (for example, 0 ℃) when the first defrosting heater and the second defrosting heater work, and may be obtained through an experiment, for example, 10 minutes.
When the defrosting heater starts to work, the generated heat is directly absorbed by a frost layer, the temperature of the evaporation cavity is still very low, after the defrosting heater works for a certain time (namely the first preset time Ta), the temperature of the lower part of the evaporation cavity reaches above 0 ℃, the temperature of the upper part of the evaporation cavity is still below 0 ℃, and at the moment, the turbulent fan operates to blow air above 0 ℃ at the lower part of the evaporation cavity to the upper part, so that defrosting of the evaporator is accelerated.
And step S120, controlling whether the first defrosting heater and/or the second defrosting heater are turned off or not according to the working time of the first defrosting heater and/or the second defrosting heater, the first temperature of the upper part of the evaporator and/or the second temperature of the air channel opening.
Specifically, whether the working time of the second defrosting heater reaches a second preset time or not is judged; when the second preset time is reached, controlling the second defrosting heater to be turned off; and controlling whether the first defrosting heater is closed or not according to the first temperature at the upper part of the evaporator and the second temperature at the air duct opening.
For example, whether the working time T2 of the second defrosting heater meets T2 ≧ Tb (second preset time) is judged, and when T2 ≧ Tb is met, the second defrosting heater is controlled to be turned off. Preferably, the second preset time is longer than the first preset time, for example, the first preset time is 10 minutes, and the second preset time is 15 minutes.
When defrosting is carried out for a certain time (second preset time), the frost layer at the lower part of the evaporator is completely removed, the temperature at the lower part of the evaporator rises violently if a defrosting heater (a second defrosting heater) at the lower part of the evaporator works continuously, the defrosting heater at the lower part of the evaporator works to have little influence on the defrosting at the upper part of the evaporator, the defrosting heater at the lower part of the evaporator is turned off, the defrosting requirement can be completely met only by the defrosting heater (the second defrosting heater) at the middle part of the evaporator, and electric energy is saved.
And after the second defrosting heater is controlled to be turned off, controlling whether the second defrosting heater is turned off or not according to the first temperature at the upper part of the evaporator and the second temperature at the air duct opening. Specifically, whether a first temperature at the upper part of the evaporator is greater than or equal to a first preset temperature and whether a second temperature at the air duct opening is greater than or equal to a second preset temperature is judged; if the first temperature is greater than or equal to a first preset temperature and the second temperature is greater than or equal to a second preset temperature, controlling whether the first defrosting heater is turned off or not according to whether the duration time of the second temperature greater than or equal to the second preset temperature reaches a third preset time or not; and if the duration time reaches a third preset time, controlling the first defrosting heater to be turned off.
And judging whether the first temperature of the upper part of the evaporator is more than or equal to a first preset temperature, namely judging whether the frost layer on the evaporator is completely removed, and judging whether the second temperature at the air duct opening is more than or equal to a second preset temperature, namely judging whether the residual ice in the air duct is completely removed. The first preset temperature and the second preset temperature can be obtained through experiments, namely, the temperature reached by the upper part of the evaporator when the frost layer on the evaporator is completely removed and the temperature reached by the air duct opening when the residual ice in the air duct is completely removed are tested through experiments.
For example, whether the first temperature t1 at the upper part of the evaporator meets t1 ≧ ta (first preset temperature) and whether the second temperature t2 at the air duct opening meets t2 ≧ tb (second preset temperature) is judged, preferably, whether t1 ≧ ta is judged first, and if t1 ≧ ta is met, whether t2 ≧ tb is judged; if the time meeting t1 is more than or equal to ta and t2 is more than or equal to tb, whether the time meeting t2 is more than or equal to tb reaches Tc (third preset time) is continuously judged, and if the time meeting t2 is more than or equal to tb reaches Tc, the first defrosting heater is controlled to be closed, namely the power is cut off and the work is stopped.
And after the first defrosting heater is controlled to be turned off, the turbulent flow fan is controlled to be turned off, and the refrigerator unit exits from the defrosting logic.
In order to clearly illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, the following describes an execution flow of the refrigerator control method provided by the present invention with a specific embodiment.

As shown in fig. 3, the unit is powered on and the compressor operates according to the set logic based on the compartment temperature. And judging that the unit reaches a defrosting entry condition, if the unit reaches the defrosting entry condition, stopping the compressor, powering on the first defrosting heater 1 and the second defrosting heater 2, starting defrosting of the unit, and if the unit does not reach the defrosting condition, continuing to operate according to set logic. The temperature T1 and T2 of the first defrosting bulb 3 and the second defrosting bulb 4 are monitored in real time, and the working time T1 and T2 of the first defrosting heater 1 and the second defrosting heater 2 are calculated in real time. And judging whether the working time T1 of the defrosting heater meets the condition that T1 is more than or equal to Ta (Ta can take 10 minutes), if the condition is met, electrifying the turbulent flow fan to operate, and if the condition is not met, returning to the logic operation. And judging whether the working time T2 of the second defrosting heater 2 meets T2 which is not less than Tb (Tb can take 15 minutes), if the condition is met, closing the second defrosting heater 2, and if the condition is not met, returning to continuously judging whether T2 which is not less than Tb is met. After the second defrosting heater 2 is turned off, whether the first temperature t1 detected by the first defrosting bulb meets t1 is not less than ta (ta can be 8 ℃) is judged, if the conditions are met, whether the second temperature t2 detected by the second defrosting bulb meets t2 is not less than tb (tb can be 3 ℃) is judged, and the next logic is operated. And if not, returning to the logic operation. And judging whether the second temperature T2 detected by the second defrosting thermal bulb meets the condition that whether the time T2 is more than or equal to tb is more than or equal to Tc (T5 is a preset time value, and can take 3 minutes here) or not, if so, stopping working when the first defrosting heater is powered off, closing the turbulent fan, exiting the defrosting logic, and if not, returning to the logic until the unit is powered off.

Preferably, the second preset time is longer than the first preset time, for example, the first preset time is 10 minutes, and the second preset time is 15 minutes.
When defrosting is carried out for a certain time (second preset time), the frost layer at the lower part of the evaporator is completely removed, the temperature at the lower part of the evaporator rises violently if a defrosting heater (a second defrosting heater) at the lower part of the evaporator works continuously, the defrosting heater at the lower part of the evaporator works to have little influence on the defrosting at the upper part of the evaporator, the defrosting heater at the lower part of the evaporator is turned off, the defrosting requirement can be completely met only by the defrosting heater (the second defrosting heater) at the middle part of the evaporator, and electric energy is saved.
After the second control unit 120 controls the second defrosting heater to be turned off, whether the second defrosting heater is turned off is controlled according to the first temperature at the upper part of the evaporator and the second temperature at the air duct opening. Specifically, whether a first temperature at the upper part of the evaporator is greater than or equal to a first preset temperature and whether a second temperature at the air duct opening is greater than or equal to a second preset temperature is judged; if the first temperature is greater than or equal to a first preset temperature and the second temperature is greater than or equal to a second preset temperature, controlling whether the first defrosting heater is turned off or not according to whether the duration time of the second temperature greater than or equal to the second preset temperature reaches a third preset time or not; and if the duration time reaches a third preset time, controlling the first defrosting heater to be turned off.
And judging whether the first temperature of the upper part of the evaporator is more than or equal to a first preset temperature, namely judging whether the frost layer on the evaporator is completely removed, and judging whether the second temperature at the air duct opening is more than or equal to a second preset temperature, namely judging whether the residual ice in the air duct is completely removed. The first preset temperature and the second preset temperature can be obtained through experiments, namely, the temperature reached by the upper part of the evaporator when the frost layer on the evaporator is completely removed and the temperature reached by the air duct opening when the residual ice in the air duct is completely removed are tested through experiments.
For example, whether the first temperature t1 at the upper part of the evaporator meets t1 ≧ ta (first preset temperature) and whether the second temperature t2 at the air duct opening meets t2 ≧ tb (second preset temperature) is judged, preferably, whether t1 ≧ ta is judged first, and if t1 ≧ ta is met, whether t2 ≧ tb is judged; if the time meeting t1 is more than or equal to ta and t2 is more than or equal to tb, whether the time meeting t2 is more than or equal to tb reaches Tc (third preset time) is continuously judged, and if the time meeting t2 is more than or equal to tb reaches Tc, the first defrosting heater is controlled to be closed, namely the power is cut off and the work is stopped.
After the second control unit 120 controls the first defrosting heater to be turned off, the turbulent fan is controlled to be turned off, and the refrigerator unit exits the defrosting logic.
