  • Patent number: 12111090
    Abstract: The present application relates to the field of ice making control for a refrigerator. Disclosed is a control method for ice making of a refrigerator, the method comprising: when an ice maker finishes ice making, detecting whether an ice storage box of the ice maker is in an ice-full state; when it is detected that the ice storage box is not in the ice-full state, controlling the ice maker to complete a first instance of ice turning; detecting again whether the ice storage box of the ice maker is in the ice-full state; and when it is detected that the ice storage box is in the ice-full state, controlling the ice maker to make ice again. In this way, the utilization rate of an ice maker can be effectively improved, the ice making amount is improved, the time during which a user waits for ice making is reduced, and the user experience is improved.

  • Patent number: 10712758
    Abstract: Provided are a refrigerator, and a method for correcting temperature measurement errors of an infrared sensor including: verifying that the infrared sensor is running in an operating state; obtaining a measured operating-state value acquired by the infrared sensor sensing the temperature of a preset zone; obtaining a correction constant corresponding to the infrared sensor, the correction constant being obtained by means of a comparison between the value measured by the infrared sensor in a correction state and a standard temperature value; using the correction constant to correct the measured value and thus obtain a corrected temperature value. Using the method, the impact of an absolute error of the infrared sensor on temperature measurement is reduced; thus the accuracy of temperature measurement is improved, such that measured values directly reflect the actual temperature of the items inside a preset zone, and an accurate basis for control is provided for subsequent associated control.
