The present application can complete the water level detection and implement the water replenishing action without introducing a new component, and the following explains how to implement the automatic water replenishing of the dishwasher with reference to fig. 2.
Referring to fig. 2, the automatic water replenishing system of the dishwasher may include: a variable frequency washing pump 30, a current detector 10, a variable frequency drive 40, a flow meter 50, a water inlet valve 60 and a water inlet controller 20. The variable frequency driver 10, the current detector 10 and the water inlet controller 20 may be integrated on the same circuit board, or may be integrated on different circuit boards. The variable frequency drive 30 and the current detector 10 are respectively connected to the variable frequency washing pump 30, the current detector 10 is used for detecting the working current of the variable frequency washing pump 30, and the variable frequency drive 40 is used for generating an SPWM (Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation) signal to enable the variable frequency washing pump to act. The water inlet controller 60 is connected to the flow meter 50 and the water inlet valve 50, the flow meter 50 converts water amount information into pulse signals to feed back the pulse signals to the water inlet controller 20, and the water inlet controller 60 is used for controlling the working state of the water inlet valve 60. The combination of the variable frequency washing pump 30, the current detector 10 and the variable frequency drive 40 is equivalent to constituting a water level detection sensor for transmitting a water level signal to the water inlet controller 20.
Specifically, when the dishwasher washes dishes, the current detector 10 detects the working current of the variable frequency washing pump 30, the water inlet controller 20 determines the water level of the liner of the dishwasher according to the working current detected by the current detector 10, and controls the water inlet valve 60 to be opened when the water level of the liner is low, so that the dishwasher automatically supplies water; when the water amount flowing through the flow meter 50 reaches a preset value, the flow meter 50 converts the water amount into pulses to be fed back to the water inlet controller 20, the water inlet controller 20 controls the water inlet valve 60 to be closed, and the automatic water replenishing process of the dishwasher is completed.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart of an automatic water replenishing method of a dishwasher according to an embodiment of the present invention.
In one embodiment of the invention, the dishwasher mainly refers to a variable frequency dishwasher, the variable frequency dishwasher can adjust the rotating speed of washing of a variable frequency washing pump by adjusting voltage, and can also select proper washing water flow, time and rotating speed according to the degree of the soiling of tableware. Because the direct drive motor is used in the variable frequency dishwasher, the use of transmission parts such as a transmission belt and the like is avoided, the noise of the variable frequency washing pump is greatly reduced, and the failure rate is lower. In addition, in the whole washing and drying process, the rotating speed of the variable-frequency washing pump can be controlled by the variable-frequency technology, so that energy and power are saved.
As shown in fig. 1, an automatic water replenishing method of a dishwasher according to an embodiment of the present invention may include the steps of:
s1, obtaining the working current of a variable frequency washing pump in the dish washing machine.
In one embodiment of the invention, a current detector is arranged in the dishwasher and used for detecting the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump; or the working voltage of the variable-frequency washing pump is detected according to a voltage detector arranged in the dish-washing machine, and then the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump can be further obtained according to the relation between the current and the voltage.
When the dishwasher performs a washing operation, the variable frequency drive in the dishwasher controls the variable frequency washing pump to perform a washing operation according to the washing signal. The working current of the variable-frequency washing pump is not constant, and the working current is related to the quantity of the washed tableware and the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher, so that the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher can be determined according to the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump.
And S2, determining the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine according to the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump.
In the working process of the variable-frequency washing pump, the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump is detected in real time through a current detector in the dish washing machine, and the detected working current is fed back to the water inlet controller. The water inlet controller determines the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher according to the detected working current in a period of time.
According to one embodiment of the invention, the determining of the water level of the liner of the dishwasher according to the working current of the variable frequency washing pump can comprise: determining an average current value, a maximum current value and a minimum current value according to the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump within a first preset time; and determining the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher according to the average current value, the maximum current value and the minimum current value. The first preset time may be calibrated according to a time condition, for example, the first preset time may be 5s.
Further, according to an embodiment of the present invention, determining the water level of the tub of the dishwasher according to the average current value Ia, the maximum current value Imax, and the minimum current value Imin may include: and when the average current value Ia is smaller than a first preset current threshold value I1, the maximum current value Imax is smaller than a second preset current threshold value I2, and the minimum current value Imin is smaller than a third preset current threshold value I3, determining that the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher is smaller than the preset water level. The first preset current threshold, the second preset current threshold, the third preset current threshold and the preset water level may be calibrated according to actual conditions, for example, the preset water level may be a value within a range of [1.0l,2.5l ], and a specific selected value may be combined with the capacity of the dishwasher.
Specifically, when the dishwasher performs washing operation, the magnitude of the real-time working current of the variable frequency washing pump is closely related to the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher. Under the general condition, the higher the water level of an inner container of the dish washing machine is, the larger the load of the dish washing machine is, and the larger the real-time working current of the variable-frequency washing pump is; along with the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine becomes lower, the load of the dish washing machine also becomes smaller, and the real-time working current of the variable-frequency washing pump is also reduced. Therefore, the water level of the inner container of the dish washer can be obtained according to the real-time working current of the variable-frequency washing pump.
Specifically, during the washing operation of the inverter washing pump, the real-time working current of the inverter washing pump is not in a stable state, and there may be abnormal fluctuation of the working current. In order to eliminate the influence caused by abnormal fluctuation of the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump and prevent the condition of error judgment when the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine is detected, the working current values of all the variable-frequency washing pumps in a period of time (first preset time, such as 5 s) can be obtained, the working current values are calculated, the average current value Ia (the ratio of the sum of all the collected working currents to the number of all the collected working currents) of the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump in a period of time (first preset time), the maximum current value Imax and the minimum current value Imin (the maximum current value and the minimum current value can be obtained through corresponding functions) can be obtained through calculation, and then the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine can be comprehensively judged according to the average current value Ia (the working current), the maximum current value and the minimum current value (the maximum current value) of the working current.
When Ia (average current value), imax (maximum current value) and Imin (minimum current value) of the real-time working current of the variable-frequency washing pump simultaneously meet the condition that (1) Ia (average current value) is smaller than I1 (first preset current threshold value); (2) Imax (maximum current value) is smaller than I2 (second preset current threshold); (3) Imin (minimum current value) is less than I3 (third preset current threshold), can judge that the inner bag water level of dish washer is low excessively, is less than preset water level promptly, needs to carry out the moisturizing to the inner bag of dish washer this moment.
And S3, controlling a water inlet valve of the dish washing machine to open when the dish washing machine needs to replenish water according to the water level of the inner container.
Particularly, when judging that dish washer inner bag water level is lower (being less than preset water level), when needing to carry out the moisturizing, can control dish washer's water intaking valve and open for during water flows into the inner bag, realize the automatic water supply of dish washer. After water is supplemented, the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine rises, and the tableware washed in the dish washing machine is immersed in a higher water level for washing, so that a better washing effect is realized.
Therefore, by the automatic water replenishing method, the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine can be determined according to the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump, when the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine is low and water is required to be replenished, the water inlet valve can be controlled to be opened, the automatic water replenishing of the dish washing machine is realized, the reliability of water level detection is improved, the dish washing machine can be prevented from being mistakenly triggered to replenish water, new components are not required to be added in the dish washing machine when the water level is detected and the automatic water replenishing is realized, the automatic water replenishing of the dish washing machine can be realized only by upgrading software, the production and test period is not required to be prolonged, and the production cost is saved.
The following describes in detail how the inlet valve of the dishwasher is controlled in the above-described embodiment of the present invention.
According to one embodiment of the present invention, a time is started after controlling a feed valve of the dishwasher to be opened, and the feed valve is controlled to be closed when the time reaches a second preset time. The second preset time is calibrated according to actual conditions, and for example, the second preset time can be set according to relevant parameters of the dishwasher (such as the volume of the inner container of the dishwasher).
In other words, when the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher is judged to be low and water needs to be supplemented, the water inlet valve is controlled to be opened, water flows into the inner container of the dishwasher through the water inlet valve, and timing is started at the moment. Along with the accumulation of time, water is continuously supplemented into the inner container of the dish washing machine, and the water level in the inner container of the dish washing machine continuously rises along with the time. When the water replenishing time reaches the second preset time, the tableware can be immersed again by the water level in the inner container of the dish washer, the water inlet valve of the dish washer is controlled to be closed, and the water replenishing is stopped.
In an embodiment of the invention, when the opening degree of the water inlet valve can be adjusted, the second preset time is set not only in relation to the capacity of the inner container, but also in relation to the opening degree of the water inlet valve, and under the condition that the capacity of the inner container is determined, the larger the opening degree of the water inlet valve is, the shorter the second preset time is, the smaller the opening degree of the water inlet valve is, and the larger the second preset time is.
According to another embodiment of the present invention, after controlling the water inlet valve of the dishwasher to be opened, the amount of the supplementary water is also acquired, and when the amount of the supplementary water reaches a preset value, the water inlet valve is controlled to be closed. The preset value can be calibrated according to actual conditions, for example, the preset value can be set according to relevant parameters of the dishwasher, for example, the preset value can be a value in a range of [0.2L,1L ].
In other words, when the water inlet valve of the dishwasher is controlled to replenish water to the dishwasher liner, the amount of water flowing into the dishwasher liner is counted, for example, the flow rate of water flowing into the dishwasher liner can be obtained through the flow meter. When the water quantity flowing into the inner container of the dish washing machine, namely the water supplementing quantity, reaches the water supplementing preset value, the water inlet valve can be controlled to be closed, water supplementing to the inner container of the dish washing machine is stopped, the water level in the inner container is prevented from being too high, the washing effect is prevented from being influenced, and the energy consumption is prevented from being increased.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the automatic water replenishing method of the dishwasher may further include: and acquiring the opening times of the water inlet valve, and forbidding the dishwasher to automatically replenish water when the opening times reach the preset times. The preset times can be set according to actual conditions, for example, can be set according to specific parameters of the dishwasher, and for example, the preset times can be 4-20 times.
In particular, during the dishwashing process of the dishwasher, the water level of the inner tub of the dishwasher may be detected to be lower more than once as water is sprayed and evaporated, i.e. water needs to be replenished for many times. In the working process of the dishwasher, the water level of the inner container is uninterruptedly detected, and when the water level of the inner container is insufficient, the water inlet valve is opened to supplement water; after the water is supplemented, the dishwasher continues to work, the water level is continuously detected, water is supplemented when the water level is insufficient, the operation is repeated, and the water is supplemented to the inner container of the dishwasher until the water supplementing times reach certain times (preset times). When the water replenishing times reach certain times (preset times), the dishwasher works for a long time, tableware in the dishwasher is cleaned, and the washing operation of the dishwasher is stopped to avoid resource waste.
In order to protect the components in the dishwasher from being damaged, in one embodiment of the present invention, a heating device of the dishwasher is also controlled to stop heating operation while controlling a water inlet valve of the dishwasher to be opened.
That is, when the water level of the inner tub of the dishwasher is low and water needs to be replenished, the heating device of the dishwasher may be exposed to the water, and if the heating device of the dishwasher is still in a heating state at this time, the heating device may be dried, thereby causing damage to the heating device. Therefore, when the water inlet valve is controlled to be opened, the heating device can be controlled to stop heating at the moment, so that dry burning of the heating device is avoided, and the service life of the heating device is prolonged.
In conclusion, according to the automatic water replenishing method of the dish washing machine, the water level of the inner container of the dish washing machine can be determined according to the working current of the variable-frequency washing pump, the reliability of water level detection is improved, meanwhile, the dish washing machine can be effectively prevented from mistakenly triggering water replenishing, and tableware can be washed in a high water level through the automatic water replenishing of the dish washing machine, so that a good washing effect is realized.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the water inlet controller 20 is also used to control the heating device of the dishwasher to stop the heating operation when controlling the inlet valve of the dishwasher to be opened.
Specifically, when the water level of the inner container of the dishwasher is low and water needs to be supplemented, the heating device of the dishwasher may be exposed from the water surface, and if the heating device of the dishwasher is still in a heating state at the moment, the heating device may be dried, thereby causing damage to the heating device. Therefore, when the water inlet valve is controlled to be opened, the heating device can be controlled to stop heating at the moment, so that dry burning of the heating device is avoided, and the service life of the heating device is prolonged.
