本申请涉及自动控制领域,特别涉及一种热水机控制方法和装置、热水机及控制系统。
背景技术
随着人们对生活品质要求的提高,参加体育锻炼已经成了人们在闲暇时间的首选。通常人们在参加体育锻炼后需要洗澡,而热水机的水箱与花洒之间通常会有一定的距离,因此在洗澡前需要先放出水管中的冷水,在水管中的冷水放完后才能放出热水。这就造成了水资源的浪费。
为了能够节约水资源,目前出现了一种具有回水功能的热水机。如图1所示,冷水通过热水机1的进水口11进入热水机1的水箱中进行加热,热水从热水出水口12流出,用户通过调节混水阀2,以便调节热水和通过冷水口21进入的冷水的比例,最终将混合后的温度适当的水通过花洒3流出。其中为了避免用户在洗澡时先出冷水的缺陷,在热水机1的热水出水口12和回水口13之间的管道上设置回水泵4。其中当回水泵4开启时,可将热水出水口12和混水阀2之间管道中的冷水通过回水口13返回到热水机1的水箱中进行加热。从而确保用户在洗澡时能够从花洒直接流出热水,避免了水资源的浪费。
然而,由于用户在结束体育锻炼回到家后才能对回水泵进行操作,由于回水处理还需要一定时间,因此用户在回家后还无法马上洗热水澡,因此降低了用户体验。

应注意到:相似的标号和字母在下面的附图中表示类似项,因此,一旦某一项在一个附图中被定义,则在随后的附图中不需要对其进行进一步讨论。
图2为本申请热水机控制方法一个实施例的示意图。其中,本实施例的方法步骤可由热水机控制装置执行。其中:
步骤201,接收用户可穿戴设备以预定频率发送的上报信息。
其中,用户可穿戴设备可以为智能手环或其它智能设备。应当可以理解,本申请所有实施例中的用户可穿戴设备均可以被其他用户设备(例如非穿戴式的用户设备)所代替,只要所述用户设备能够向热水机发送信息即可。
步骤202,根据上报信息中包括的用户位置信息,判断用户是否即将归来。
步骤203,若用户即将归来,则打开回水泵,以便热水机的出水口输出的水通过回水口返回热水机。
可选地,在接收用户可穿戴设备发送的上报信息后,还可判断当前是否处于指定工作模式,若当前处于指定工作模式,则进一步判断当前时间是否在指定工作模式规定的时间范围内,若当前时间在指定工作模式规定的时间范围内,则执行根据上报信息中包括的用户位置信息判断用户是否即将归来的步骤。
通过设置指定工作模式和时间范围,是为了避免用户在其它场景下因正常活动而导致对热水机的误触发。
基于本申请上述实施例提供的热水机控制方法,通过利用用户可穿戴设备上报的信息确定运动方向和用户位置判断用户是否即将归来,若用户即将归来,则打开回水泵进行回水操作,以便用户回家后就能马上就能洗上热水澡,从而提高了用户体验。
图3为本申请热水机控制方法另一实施例的示意图。其中,本实施例的方法步骤可由热水机控制装置执行。其中:
步骤301,接收用户可穿戴设备以预定频率发送的上报信息。
步骤302,根据上报信息中包括的用户位置信息,判断用户是否即将归来。
步骤303,若用户即将归来,则打开回水泵,以便热水机的出水口输出的水通过回水口返回热水机。
步骤304,对出水口的输出水温进行检测。
步骤305,若出水口的输出水温超过预设温度值,则关闭回水泵。
可选地,可通过获取当天的天气情况,从而根据当天的天气情况设定预设温度值。例如,当天的天气比较热,则可将出水口的输出水温预设值降低。若当天的天气比较热,则可将出水口的输出水温预设值降低。
此外,也可根据上报信息中包括的用户生理指标,对预设温度值进行调整。例如,用户生理指标可包括体温、心率、血压等生理参数。若用户出现身体不适的情况,其生理指标就会发生异常,在这种情况下可提高出水口的输出水温预设值,以便对用户的身体健康提供保 护,从而提高用户体验。
可选地,还可根据用户的使用偏好,对预设温度值进行调整。例如,用户平时洗澡时就偏好较高的水温,则会相应提高出水口的输出水温预设值。若用户平时洗澡时就偏好较低的水温,则会相应降低出水口的输出水温预设值。
图4为本申请热水机控制方法又一实施例的示意图。其中,上述根据上报信息中包括的用户位置信息,判断用户是否即将归来的步骤可包括:
步骤401,根据上报信息中包括的用户位置信息,判断用户是否朝向热水机所处位置移动。
其中,可将当前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离作为第一距离L1,将预定时间间隔(例如10秒)前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离作为第二距离L2。若第一距离L1小于第二距离L2,则判断用户朝向热水机所处位置移动。
用户与热水机所处位置之间的距离在不断减小,由此可确定用户在朝热水机所处位置移动。
步骤402,若用户朝向热水机所处位置移动,则进一步判断当前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离是否小于第一预定距离。
步骤403,若当前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离小于第一预定距离,则判断用户即将归来。
例如,在确定用户在朝热水机所处位置移动,且用户距离热水机所处位置不到10米,就可以确定用户即将归来。
图5为本申请热水机控制方法又一实施例的示意图。其中,上述根据上报信息中包括的用户位置信息,判断用户是否即将归来的步骤还可包括:
步骤501,根据上报信息中包括的用户位置信息,判断用户是否朝向热水机所处位置移动。
步骤502,若用户朝向热水机所处位置移动,判断当前的用户位置信息与热水机所在位置之间距离是否小于第二预定距离。
步骤503,若当前的用户位置信息与热水机所在位置之间距离小于第二预定距离,则在热水机处于未加热状态时启动热水机进行加热。
在该实施例中,为了节省电能,热水机在不使用时处于不加热状态。若判断用户正在回家的路上,且用户离家已不足100米,此时热水机可开始加热,从而在不影响用户洗澡的同时,还能有效节省电能。
步骤504,进一步判断当前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离是否小于第一预定距离。
其中第二预定距离大于第一预定距离。
步骤505,若当前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离小于第一预定距离,则判断用户即将归来。
也就是说,在通常情况下,热水机可处于不加热的状态,若在指定工作模式下及指定时间范围内,检测到用户正在回家的路上,此时用户距家不足100米,则触发热水机开始进行加热,当用户距家不足10米,则触发回水泵进行回水操作,以便用户回到家就可以洗热水澡。
图6为本申请热水机控制装置一个实施例的示意图。如图6所示,热水机控制装置可包括接收模块61、状态识别模块62和回水泵控制模块63,其中:
接收模块61用于接收用户可穿戴设备以预定频率发送的上报信息。

回水泵控制模块63用于根据状态识别模块62的判断结果,若用户即将归来,则打开回水泵,以便热水机的出水口输出的水通过回水口返回热水机。
基于本申请上述实施例提供的热水机控制装置,通过利用用户可穿戴设备上报的信息确定运动方向和用户位置判断用户是否即将归来,若用户即将归来,则打开回水泵进行回水操作,以便用户回家后就能马上就能洗上热水澡,从而提高了用户体验。
图6为本申请热水机控制装置另一实施例的示意图。与图6所示实施例相比,在图7中,热水机控制装置还包括出口水温检测模块64,其中:

其中,状态识别模块62具体将当前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离作为第一距离,将预定时间间隔前的用户位置信息与热水机所处位置之间距离作为第二距离,若第一距离小于第二距离,则判断用户朝向热水机所处位置移动。
