优选的,所述的智能终端与洗衣机建立用于智能终端接收洗衣机状态信息的第一信道和用于洗衣机接收智能终端发送控制指令的第二信道,当洗衣机和智能终端分别成功联网,第一信道处于连通状态,状态指示设备的指示状态对应为状态d,当所述激活装置处于触发状态则第二信道处于连通状态,状态指示设备的指示状态对应为状态e,所述激活装置处于冻结状态则第二信道处于关闭状态指示设备的指示状态对应为状态d;
优选的,所述智能终端包括多个,分别通过第一信道与洗衣机网络连接,此时状态指示设备的指示状态对应为状态d,当任一智能终端与洗衣机之间的第二信道连通时,则洗衣机控制其他智能终端与洗衣机之间的第二信道均处于关闭状态,此时状态指示设备的指示状态对应为状态e。
另一方面,本发明中所述的授权状态还包括状态F:洗衣机插上了WiFi模块,并且洗衣机成功连接到了路由器和服务器也通过服务器连接到了智能终端开通了所述的第一信道,此时智能终端可实施查看洗衣机的工作状态,但是洗衣机与智能终端之间的第二信道处于关闭状态,此时洗衣机的指示灯可对应一种指示状态。
本实施例中,所述的洗衣机为滚筒洗衣机,智能终端远程控制洗衣机包括以下步骤:
S1、智能终端远程申请控制洗衣机,此时指示灯可显示状态X,表示有智能终端正在申请远程控制该洗衣机;
S2、检测洗衣机门体开关的状态,判断门体是否开启,若判断结果为是,则禁止智能终端控制该洗衣机,此时指示灯显示状态d,若判断结果为否,则洗衣机授权该智能终端远程控制该洗衣机,此时指示灯显示状态e,表示,洗衣机授权智能终端远程网络控制洗衣机成功,智能终端正在远程控制中;
S3、洗涤过程结束,洗衣机禁止智能终端继续远程控制洗衣机。
在本实施例中,在步骤S2中,洗衣机的门体开关状态可由用户自己检测,也可以通过洗衣机上设置有门体开关机构,洗衣机可实现自动开启关闭该门体开关结构。当通过用户自己检查洗衣机门体开关时,当发现门体为开启状态则可以自己关闭门体,然后触发激活装置从而授权智能终端控制洗衣机,而当用户检查该门体为关闭状态时,也触发激活装置从而授权智能终端远程控制洗衣机。另一方面,洗衣机上可以设置门体开关检测机构,用于判断门体是否处于关闭状态,当检测到门体为关闭状态则也可自动激发激活装置,从而使得智能终端可自动获取洗衣机的授权,从而提高了洗衣机的自动化水平。
