Method and device for controlling water dispenser

The invention discloses a method and device for controlling a water dispenser. The method comprises the steps that the weight of residual drinking water in the water dispenser is obtained every continuous preset time periods, and the preset time periods are in one-to-one correspondence with the weights; calculating the change condition of the weight based on a preset algorithm to obtain a corresponding water drinking probability in a preset time period; determining a preset time period of the current time as a target time period; based on the target time period, determining the water drinking probability of the target object at the current time; controlling the working state of the water dispenser according to the water drinking probability. The technical problem that the working state of the water dispenser cannot be controlled according to the actual water drinking demand of a user due to the fact that the method for controlling the water dispenser in the related technology is single and fixed is solved. 本申
