Fig. 11 is a flowchart illustrating a method for controlling a dishwasher in accordance with embodiment 2 of the present invention, and fig. 12 is a flowchart illustrating an example of the method for controlling the dishwasher in accordance with embodiment 2 of the present invention. As shown in fig. 11 and 12, the dishwasher control method according to embodiment 2 of the present invention includes the steps of:

s101: after the sterilized water generating device a enters water, the air pump 5 and the power supply device b are started, and the sterilized water is generated by electrolysis in the sterilized water generating device a.

Specifically, a second pipeline is arranged between the water inlet a11 of the sterilized water generating device a and a water source, and a third pipeline is arranged between the second water inlet of the washing component and the water source.

The inlet water of the sterilizing water generating device a can adopt the following scheme: and switching on the second pipeline to feed water into the sterilized water generating device a and obtain the water quantity in the sterilized water generating device a, and stopping feeding water into the sterilized water generating device a when the water quantity reaches a preset first threshold value. In a specific embodiment, the amount of water in the sterilized water generating apparatus a may be obtained by the flow meter 7, or may be obtained by the liquid level sensor e in the water storage structure a 1.

The dishwasher also comprises an overflow detection device and a drainage device, wherein the overflow detection device and the drainage device are both arranged on the base 2 of the dishwasher, and further, the control method of the dishwasher also comprises the following steps: acquiring a detection signal of the overflow detection device; determining whether the sterilized water generating device a overflows or not according to the detection signal; and when the sterilized water generating device a overflows, starting the drainage device.

Specifically, the switching element is a water pump 4 or an electromagnetic valve. Thereby, the water of the sterilizing water generating device a can be discharged into the washing module by turning on the switching element, and the overflow problem can be solved at the source of the overflow.

Specifically, harmful gas can be generated in the electrolytic process of the sterilized water generating device a, wherein the harmful gas mainly comprises ozone, the ozone generated by the electrolysis of the sterilized water generating device a can be discharged through the fluid discharge part a5 on the sterilized water generating device a, and further, the outlet of the fluid discharge part a5 is close to the power supply device b, so that the ozone generated by the electrolysis of the sterilized water generating device a can be timely decomposed by the high temperature of the power supply device b, and the ozone is prevented from causing harm to human bodies.

As a further embodiment, the dishwasher further includes a fluid driving mechanism provided on the water storage structure a1, and after the air pump 5 and the power supply device b are activated, further includes: activating the fluid drive mechanism. Therefore, the fluid driving mechanism can drive the water in the water storage structure a1, so that the sterilized water generated by the electrode discharge is promoted to be uniformly distributed in the water storage structure a1, and the full progress of the electrolytic reaction is promoted.

After the dishwasher is started, whether the dishwasher water softener 6 is in a salt deficiency state or not needs to be detected firstly, and if the dishwasher reports the salt deficiency state, the washing function or the disinfection function cannot be used. This is because if the hardness of water introduced into the dishwasher is too high, scale may be generated on the surfaces of the washing assembly or the electrodes by using the washing function or the sterilizing function for a long time, thereby causing the discharge efficiency of the electrodes thereof to be deteriorated or even damaged. In order to remove the salt deficiency alarm, a user needs to manually add a proper amount of salt into the water softener 6 to remove the salt deficiency alarm, and the washing function or the disinfection function can be normally used after the salt deficiency alarm is removed.

Specifically, the dishwasher further comprises an air outlet mechanism f1, an air duct, a wind screen f3 and a wind screen driving mechanism f4, wherein the air duct is provided with an air inlet, a first air outlet and a second air outlet f23, the air inlet is connected with the air outlet of the air outlet mechanism f1, the first air outlet is communicated with the inner container 1 of the dishwasher, and the second air outlet f23 is communicated with the air inlet channel; the wind shielding piece f3 is arranged in the induced air pipeline f2 and is suitable for blocking the first wind outlet when in a first wind shielding state or blocking the second wind outlet f23 when in a second wind shielding state; the wind shield driving mechanism f4 is connected with the wind shield f3 and is suitable for driving the wind shield f3 to block the first air outlet or the second air outlet f 23; before starting the air pump 5, the method further comprises: sending a first control signal to the wind deflector driving mechanism f4 to enable the wind deflector driving mechanism f4 to control the wind deflector f3 to be in a first wind deflecting state; after water is fed into the washing assembly and secondary rinsing is carried out by using the washing assembly, the method further comprises the following steps: sending a second control signal to the wind deflector driving mechanism f4 to enable the wind deflector driving mechanism f4 to control the wind deflector f3 to be in a second wind-blocking state; and starting the air pump 5 again to dry the inner container 1.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 12, the drying stage includes the steps of:

draining water from a washing assembly: and after the secondary rinsing stage is finished, the program enters a drying stage, the control main board sends an instruction to the washing pump 14 and the drainage pump 10, the washing pump 14 is powered off to stop working, the drainage pump 10 is powered on to start working, and drainage is carried out.

Starting a drying device: the control main board sends an instruction to the air inlet assembly, a heating wire is arranged in the air inlet assembly and can heat air, and the fan can blow the heated air into the washing assembly for drying; and meanwhile, the main board is controlled to send an instruction to the air exhaust device, the fan is arranged in the air exhaust device, the damp and hot air in the washing assembly can be pumped out, the washing assembly and the tableware continuously run, and the purpose of drying is achieved. And after the drying stage is finished, the whole machine is powered off.

In the dishwasher and the control method, device and storage medium of the dishwasher provided by the embodiment 2 of the invention, when the disinfectant generating device a works, the power supply device b provides high-frequency alternating voltage of about 10KV to the discharge electrode a2, air enters the water storage structure a1 through the air inlet channel, the discharge electrode a2 of the disinfectant generating device a generates glow discharge phenomenon, plasma is generated in a liquid phase environment by utilizing high-voltage discharge, high-energy electrons around an air/liquid interface react with air and water molecules violently during discharge to generate plasmas with strong oxidizing property, such as singlet oxygen atoms, ozonide ion groups, hydrogen peroxide ion groups, hydroxyl groups, nitroso groups and the like and having strong killing capability on bacteria and viruses, and plasma disinfectant water with the bacteria and virus killing capability is generated, and the disinfection effect of the disinfectant water is superior to that of high-temperature disinfection, steam disinfection, ultraviolet disinfection, Traditional disinfection modes such as silver ion disinfection and the like; when the disinfection work is needed, the first pipeline is conducted, the disinfection water generated in the water storage structure a1 flows into the washing assembly, the disinfection water is sprayed onto the tableware through the washing assembly to be disinfected, the disinfection water flows through the washing assembly, the washing assembly and the pipeline of the washing assembly can be disinfected, the all-dimensional disinfection is achieved, and the disinfection effect is good.
