It is understood that the controller may continuously perform the steps S11 to S13 when the freezing compartment is in the non-defrosting state, so as to realize the cycle control of defrosting the refrigerator.
Compared with the prior art, the embodiment of the invention provides a refrigerator, which is characterized in that when a freezing chamber of the refrigerator is in a non-defrosting state, state parameters of the refrigerator in a current refrigerating cycle are obtained in real time, wherein the state parameters comprise accumulated opening times of a door body of the freezing chamber and running time of the whole refrigerator, whether the accumulated opening times are larger than a preset door opening time threshold value is judged, if yes, estimated defrosting interval time and a defrosting interval compensation value are obtained, the estimated defrosting interval time is compensated according to the defrosting interval compensation value to obtain current defrosting interval time, if not, the estimated defrosting interval time is obtained as the current defrosting interval time, whether the running time of the whole refrigerator reaches the current defrosting interval time is judged, if yes, a defrosting device of the refrigerator is controlled to perform defrosting operation, and controlling the defrosting device to stop defrosting operation until a preset defrosting stop condition is met. According to the refrigerator and the defrosting control method thereof provided by the embodiment of the invention, the defrosting interval time can be adjusted according to the condition that a user opens the door body of the freezing chamber, and the defrosting interval time is correspondingly prolonged when the door opening times of the user are excessive, so that the refrigerator is controlled to delay defrosting, the accuracy of defrosting control of the refrigerator is improved, the problem that the temperature in the frosted freezing chamber is too high due to the fact that defrosting is controlled according to the original defrosting interval time when the door opening times of the user are excessive can be effectively solved, the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator is improved, the use experience of the user is improved, and unnecessary energy consumption is reduced.
For example, the refrigerator is a single-system three-door refrigerator, and referring to a structural schematic diagram of the refrigerator shown in fig. 2, the refrigerator 1 is composed of a refrigerating chamber 11, a wild vegetable chamber 12 and a freezing chamber 13, and a variable temperature drawer is arranged in the refrigerating chamber 11 to realize independent temperature control. And under the more condition of user's number of times of opening the door, because the time of opening the door of refrigerator 1 is longer, will lead to changing the interval of frost and reduce, and in the in-process of freezing 13 frost, the heat of heater can transmit to in the freezing chamber through the wind gap, lead to food softening in the freezing chamber 13, heater operating time is about 30min when changing the frost at every turn, later shut down and drip 10min, high frequency is again pulled warm to the trip point 90min, totally about 130min, if the user opens the door during this period, can obviously feel the temperature of freezing chamber higher, bring the not good experience of refrigeration effect for the user.
It is worth explaining that the defrosting interval time of the refrigerator can be reasonably adjusted according to different using conditions of the refrigerator by a user, so that the accuracy of defrosting control of the refrigerator and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator are improved, the using experience of the user is improved, and unnecessary energy consumption is reduced.
As one optional implementation, the mode of acquiring the state parameter of the refrigerator in the current refrigeration cycle specifically includes:
when a user performs door opening and closing operations, the door opening and closing detection device can transmit detected signals of door opening and closing actions to the main control board of the refrigerator, and the main control board can record state parameters of the freezing chamber in the current refrigeration cycle.
It is worth explaining that the actual use state of the refrigerator is judged by obtaining the state parameters of the refrigerator in the current refrigeration cycle, the defrosting interval time of the freezing chamber can be reasonably adjusted, and the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator is effectively improved.
As one optional embodiment, the door switch detection device is further configured to detect a time length of each opening of the door body; the state parameters further include the time length of each opening of the door body;
the estimated defrosting interval time is equal to a difference obtained by subtracting a product of a first preset defrosting time multiple and the cumulative time of N times of opening of the door body from a preset fixed defrosting period; and N is the accumulated opening times.
Illustratively, the predicted interval between defrost time X1The expression of (a) is:
X1=Y-b1tn
wherein Y is the preset fixed frost period, b1For the first preset defrosting time multiple, when the accumulated opening times is greater than a preset door opening time threshold value, tnThe accumulated time length of the previous n times of opening of the door body is n, the n is the threshold value of the opening times, and when the accumulated opening times is smaller than the preset threshold value of the opening times, t isnAnd the accumulated door opening time of the door body is obtained.
As one optional embodiment, the first preset defrosting time multiple b1Is 120.
It is worth to be noted that when the accumulated opening times is smaller than the preset opening time threshold, it indicates that the opening times of the user is small, the normal defrosting operation can be performed for freezing, and at this time, the accumulated time of opening the door is accumulated at a speed 120 times.
As one optional embodiment, the door switch detection device is further configured to detect a time length of each opening of the door body; the current state parameter further includes the time length of each opening of the door body;
the defrosting interval compensation value is equal to the product of the accumulated time length of the door body after m times of opening and a second preset defrosting time multiple;
wherein m is N-N, and N is the cumulative number of openings.
Illustratively, the defrosting interval compensation value X2The expression of (a) is:
X2=b2tm
wherein, tmThe cumulative duration of the last m openings, b2And the second preset defrosting time multiple is obtained.
As an alternative embodiment, the second preset defrosting time multiple b2Equal to 60.
It is worth to be noted that when the accumulated opening times is greater than the preset threshold of the opening times, it indicates that the opening times of the user are more, and if the accumulated time of defrosting when the door is opened is continuously accumulated at a speed 120 times, the actual defrosting interval of the freezing chamber is smaller, so that frequent defrosting of the freezing chamber is performed. Therefore, the defrosting accumulation time is set to be accumulated at a speed of 60 times when the door is opened, so that the defrosting period is prolonged, and the defrosting frequency of the freezing chamber is reduced.
It should be noted that the numerical values of the first preset defrosting time multiple and the second preset defrosting time multiple may be adjusted according to actual situations, and in this embodiment, only an exemplary description is given, but it should be ensured that the numerical value of the second preset defrosting time multiple is smaller than the numerical value of the first preset defrosting time multiple.
It should be noted that, when the accumulated opening times is greater than the preset threshold of the opening times, it may be determined that the opening times of the user is relatively large in this state, and in this case, if the time interval of the defrosting of the freezing chamber is still calculated according to the first preset defrosting time multiple, the actual defrosting interval of the refrigerator is very short, which results in frequent defrosting of the refrigerator. Therefore, in order to delay the defrosting period of the freezing chamber, the part of the accumulated door opening time after exceeding the preset door opening time threshold is calculated at the defrosting speed which is less than the multiple of the first preset defrosting time, so that the actual defrosting interval is increased, the frequent defrosting time of the freezing chamber is reduced, and the refrigerating effect of the refrigerator is effectively improved.
Illustratively, the preset threshold of the number of door openings is 10.
For example, when the accumulated opening times is greater than a preset threshold of opening times, the expression for judging whether the running time of the whole machine reaches the current defrosting interval time is specifically as follows:
X≥X1+X2
transforming the above expression as follows:
X≥Y-b1tn+b2tm
wherein, X is the running time of the whole machine.
When the accumulated opening times is smaller than a preset door opening time threshold, the expression for judging whether the running time of the whole machine reaches the current defrosting interval time is specifically as follows:
X≥X1
transforming the above expression as follows:
X≥Y-b1tn
it should be noted that, when the accumulated opening times is greater than the preset threshold of opening times, t isnThe accumulated time length of the previous n times of opening of the door body is n, n is the threshold value of the opening times, and t is tn+tmWhen the accumulated opening times is smaller than the preset opening time threshold, the accumulated opening time of the door body is t-tn
It should be noted that the preset defrosting stop condition may be set according to an actual requirement of the freezer compartment of the refrigerator or an experimental result, and is not limited herein.
It is worth mentioning that after the defrosting device is controlled to stop defrosting operation and the freezing chamber is controlled to recover refrigeration under the condition that the preset defrosting stop condition is met, or the running time of the whole machine does not reach the current defrosting interval time, the controller returns to the step of obtaining the state parameters of the freezing chamber in the current refrigeration cycle, so that the circulating defrosting work of the freezing chamber of the refrigerator is realized, the defrosting interval time can be adjusted according to the condition that a user opens a door body of the freezing chamber, the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator is improved, and the user experience is improved.
For the refrigerator provided in this embodiment, in conjunction with the flowchart shown in fig. 3, the work flow of the controller in the refrigerator is specifically as follows:
when a user performs door opening and closing operations, the door opening and closing detection device can transmit detected signals of door opening and closing actions to the main control board of the refrigerator, and the main control board can record state parameters of the freezing chamber in the current refrigeration cycle. The state parameters comprise the accumulated opening times N of the door body, the running time X of the whole machine and the time length of opening the door body each time;
if the accumulated opening times N of the door body is greater than a preset door opening time threshold value and the running time of the whole machine reaches the current defrosting interval time, the formula (t-t) is metn)60+X+120tnIf the refrigerating chamber is not less than Y, controlling the refrigerating chamber to stop refrigerating and controlling the defrosting device to execute defrosting operation until a preset defrosting stop condition is met, controlling the defrosting device to stop defrosting operation and controlling the refrigerating chamber to recover refrigerating, and returning to the step of acquiring the state parameters of the refrigerating chamber in the current refrigerating cycle;
if the accumulated opening times N of the door body is smaller than a preset door opening time threshold value 10, and the running time of the whole machine reaches the current defrosting interval time, namely the formula X +120t is satisfied and is not less than Y, controlling the freezing chamber to stop refrigerating and controlling the defrosting device to execute defrosting operation, controlling the defrosting device to stop defrosting operation and controlling the freezing chamber to recover refrigerating until a preset defrosting stop condition is satisfied, and returning to the step of acquiring the state parameters of the freezing chamber in the current refrigerating cycle;
and if the running time of the whole machine does not reach the current defrosting interval time, adding one to the accumulated opening times, continuously detecting the door opening condition of the user, and repeating the steps until defrosting is stopped.
Note that N is shown in FIG. 3iThat is, the accumulated opening times N is described above, in order to more intuitively explain that the freezing chamber can automatically determine whether the defrosting operation needs to be performed on the freezing chamber according to the acquired parameters, the accumulated opening times is increased by one each time the circulation operation is not completed, so as to automatically determine the next defrosting operation according to the state parameters. In addition, after the freezing chamber of the refrigerator finishes defrosting work, the acquired numerical values of the state parameters are cleared and resetAnd recording the new record so as to carry out defrosting work in the next refrigerating cycle.
Referring to fig. 4, a schematic flow chart of another defrosting control method for a refrigerator according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.
The defrosting control method for the refrigerator provided by the embodiment comprises the following steps of S41-S43:
s41, when the freezing chamber of the refrigerator is in a non-defrosting state, acquiring the state parameters of the refrigerator in the current refrigeration cycle in real time; the state parameters comprise the running time of the whole machine and the accumulated opening times of a door body of the freezing chamber;
