Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of water heater control, in particular to a control method for linkage of a water heater and a temperature adjusting device.

Background

When bathing in cold winter, a user uses warm water for bathing, and the temperature in the bathroom is far higher than the temperature outside the bathroom (bedroom or living room); when bathing in hot summer, a user uses cold water to bath, and the temperature outside the bathroom is higher than the temperature inside the bathroom. Namely, the temperature difference exists inside and outside the bathroom no matter in winter or summer. The existence of the temperature difference can cause the user to have obvious somatosensory feeling when the user comes out of the bathroom and enters a bedroom or a living room, and the comfort level of the user is reduced. Moreover, the temperature difference is too large, and the physical health of the user is even affected.

In order to solve the above problems, users generally start the air conditioner in the bedroom or the living room before bathing, so that the temperature in the bedroom or the living room meets the requirements of the users. On one hand, the mode needs manual operation in advance by a user to control the on-off of the air conditioner, and is troublesome; on the other hand, when the air conditioner is controlled to regulate the temperature, the user is required to refer to the current temperature in the bathroom, the temperature of the bedroom or the living room is difficult to regulate and control accurately, and the condition that the regulated temperature of the bedroom or the living room is too high or too low and cannot meet the requirement of the user still exists.

Disclosure of Invention

The invention aims to provide a control method for linkage of a water heater and a temperature adjusting device, and aims to solve the problems that the existing air conditioner is controlled before bathing, the operation is complicated, and the temperature requirement required by a user is not easy to achieve.

In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:

a water heater and temperature adjusting device linkage control method is characterized in that after a water heater detects that a user has finished bathing, the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of a bathroom is detected, and a temperature adjusting device outside the bathroom is controlled to adjust the temperature outside the bathroom so as to enable the temperature difference to be reduced below a preset value.

Preferably, when the difference between the temperature inside the bathroom and the temperature outside the bathroom is greater than the preset value, the temperature adjusting device is controlled to increase the temperature outside the bathroom.

Preferably, when the difference between the temperature outside the bathroom and the temperature inside the bathroom is greater than the preset value, the temperature adjusting device is controlled to lower the temperature outside the bathroom.

Preferably, when the absolute value of the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the bathroom is less than or equal to the preset value, the temperature adjusting device is controlled to stop temperature adjustment.

Preferably, the cloud platform controls a temperature adjusting device outside the bathroom to adjust the temperature according to the temperature difference.

Preferably, when the absolute value of the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the bathroom is smaller than or equal to a preset value, the cloud platform controls the water heater to give a prompt that the water heater can go out of the bathroom to a user, or the cloud platform controls the temperature adjusting device to give a prompt that the water heater can go out of the bathroom to the user.

Preferably, the cloud platform receives the temperature inside the bathroom transmitted by the water heater and the temperature outside the bathroom transmitted by the temperature adjustment device, and calculates the temperature difference.

Preferably, the cloud platform receives the temperature in the bathroom transmitted by the water heater, transmits the temperature in the bathroom to the temperature adjustment device, and the temperature adjustment device calculates a temperature difference according to the detected temperature outside the bathroom and the received temperature in the bathroom, and transmits the temperature difference to the cloud platform.

Preferably, the cloud platform receives the temperature outside the bathroom sent by the temperature adjustment device, sends the temperature outside the bathroom to the water heater, and the water heater calculates a temperature difference according to the detected temperature inside the bathroom and the received temperature outside the bathroom, and sends the temperature difference to the cloud platform.

Preferably, the temperature inside the bathroom is detected by a temperature detection module of the water heater, and the temperature outside the bathroom is detected by a temperature detection module of the temperature adjustment device.

Preferably, the temperature adjusting device is an air conditioner, an electric heater or a warm air blower.

The invention has the beneficial effects that:

through the control method, after bathing of a user is finished, the cloud platform can obtain the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the bathroom, through the temperature difference, the cloud platform controls the temperature adjusting device outside the bathroom to be started, and adjusts the temperature outside the bathroom, so that the temperature outside the bathroom is the same as or slightly different from the temperature inside the bathroom, accurate adjustment of the temperature outside the bathroom is achieved, and further when the user comes out of the bathroom and enters a bedroom or a living room outside the bathroom, obvious somatosensory feeling is avoided, the comfort level of the user is improved, and the problem of body health caused by the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the bathroom is avoided.

Furthermore, the temperature outside the bathroom is adjusted by starting the temperature adjusting device through the cloud platform, a user does not need to manually start the temperature adjusting device in advance, manual operation of the user is omitted, and energy waste caused by starting the temperature adjusting device before bathing can be avoided. And the use of cloud platform, its self calculation is fast, can effectively reduce water heater and temperature regulation apparatus's inside calculation.

When the absolute value of the temperature difference between the inside and the outside of the bathroom is less than or equal to the preset value, the invention gives a prompt that the user can go out of the bathroom, ensures that the temperature of a bedroom or a living room meets the requirements of the user when the user goes out of the bathroom, and does not have obvious somatosensory feeling.
