The existing technology has heat pump dryers, but heavy clothes and clothes made of special materials are not suitable for heat pump dryers. Some electric clothes dryers have drying functions, but the drying effect is far from that of natural drying, and the power consumption is high, making it difficult to expand their application. Summary of the invention

[0015] Furthermore, an ozone generator is provided at the air outlet; and an ozone reducer is provided inside the air duct.

[0016] Optionally, the inner guide plate is coaxially assembled with at least one of the fans.

[0023] Furthermore, when the heating mode and / or the blowing mode is started, the remaining drying time is periodically predicted based on the intensity of infrared light emitted or reflected by the clothes to be dried; when the remaining drying time is less than the remaining timing duration of the current drying time, the remaining timing duration is replaced by the remaining drying time; when the remaining drying time is greater than the remaining timing duration of the current drying time, the intensity of the heating mode and / or the blowing mode is adjusted so that the remaining drying time predicted in the next cycle is not greater than the remaining timing duration of the current drying time.

[0033] The embodiments of the present application are described below in conjunction with the drawings in the present application. It should be understood that the implementation methods described below in conjunction with the drawings are exemplary descriptions for explaining the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application and do not constitute a limitation on the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.

[0034] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that, unless expressly stated, the "said" and "the" used herein may also include plural forms. It should be further understood that the term "including" used in the specification of the present application refers to the presence of the features, integers, steps, operations and / or components, but does not exclude the implementation of other features, information, data, steps, operations, elements, components and / or combinations thereof supported by the technical field. The term "and / or" used herein refers to at least one of the items defined by the term, for example, "A and / or B" may be implemented as "A", or as "B", or as "A and B".

[0035] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the implementation methods of the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] refer to Figures 1 to 4 The sunlight-drying device of the present application comprises a base plate 1, an outer guide plate 2, an inner guide plate 3, an adapter plate 4, a lighting assembly 5 and a fan 6. Specifically:

[0037] The base plate 1 serves as a mounting surface for other components on one hand, and is convenient for assembly into an integrated structure and installation on the main machine on the other hand. In this embodiment, the lateral dimension of the base plate 1 matches the lateral dimension of the side of the main machine facing the drying object, so as to make use of the two side edges of the main machine; the longitudinal dimension of the base plate 1 is based on the longitudinal length of the fan 6. If the assembly space allows for the coaxial installation of more than one fan 6, the longitudinal dimension of the base plate 1 can be configured according to the side-by-side length of multiple fans 6. In this embodiment, the base plate 1 is configured with a flange 11 on the longitudinal edge to facilitate the installation of the outer guide plate 2, and the base plate 1 body is provided with a plurality of through holes for assembling other components as a positioning structure.

[0038] The outer guide plate 2 is connected to the longitudinal edge of the base plate 1 . Specifically, the upper edge of the outer guide plate 2 can be bolted to the flange 11 of the longitudinal edge of the base plate 1 . In this embodiment, the outer guide plate 2 includes a first segment 21 and a second segment 22 connected to each other.

[0039] The installation position of the first segment 21 falls outside the vertical projection area of ​​the substrate 1, the uppermost edge of the first segment 21 is bolted to the flange 11 of the longitudinal edge of the substrate 1, and the first segment 21 is provided with an air guide 211. After the first segment 21 is installed with the host through the substrate 1, the air guide 211 should be avoided from being blocked. A possible implementation method is that the substrate 1 is installed at the edge of the host and the first segment 21 exceeds the edge of the host. In this case, the air guide 211 can be set on each surface of the first segment 21; or, the substrate 1 is installed at the edge of the host, the first segment 21 still falls within the vertical projection plane of the host, but the vertical distance between the first segment 21 and the host is large enough so that the air guide 211 facing the host can be ventilated. In this case, the air guide 211 can be set on each surface of the first segment 21; or, the substrate 1 is installed at the edge of the host, the first segment 21 falls within the vertical projection plane of the host, the vertical distance between the first segment 21 and the host is small, and there is no air guide 211 in the area close to the host. The body of the first segment 21 is provided with a fence, mesh, shutter or slot structure to form an air guide 211. The air guide 211 is provided on multiple surfaces to increase the air flow and wind speed.

[0040] The second segment 22 and the end of the first segment 21 extend integrally to within the vertical projection area of ​​the substrate 1, and a light guide port 221 is provided in the second segment 22. Furthermore, a lighting assembly 5 is provided on the inner side of the second segment 22, and the light waves emitted by the lighting assembly 5 pass through the light guide port 221 and gather under the substrate 1. Preferably, the light guide port 221 of the second segment 22 is arranged along the longitudinal direction of the substrate 1, and correspondingly, the lighting assembly 5 includes a lamp wick 51 capable of emitting multiple wavelengths: near infrared, UVA, UVB, UVC and far infrared, which respectively correspond to the components of sunlight. In the solar radiation reaching the ground, infrared has the most energy, accounting for about 50-70%, followed by visible light, accounting for about 46-30%, and ultraviolet light is the least, accounting for only 4-0.1%. Visible light has no significant effect on the drying of clothes. The light emitted by the illumination component 5 is outside the visible light range, but has a positive effect on drying. For example, near infrared and far infrared rays can heat the clothes to be dried, promote the evaporation of moisture on the surface of the clothes, and various ultraviolet rays can sterilize and deodorize, preventing the clothes from producing odor. The light guide port 221 of the second segment 22 can be realized as a through hole facing the wick 51, or in the form of a fence, mesh or slot. Furthermore, at least one lateral side of the second segment 22 is also set as a curved surface 222, and the surface of the curved surface 222 is coated with a reflective material, which can play a role in properly gathering light and improving the lighting effect.

[0041] The inner guide plate 3 is connected to the bottom of the base plate 1 and is generally parallel to the outer guide plate 2. A cavity is formed between the inner guide plate 3, the base plate 1 and the outer guide plate 2. The cavity is used to assemble the fan 6. The fan 6 and the inner wall of the inner guide plate 3 form an air duct 7. Further, a gap is provided between the lower edge of the inner guide plate 3 and the edge of the second segment 22, which is used as an air outlet 31 of the air duct 7. Preferably, the inner guide plate 3 has an air guide curved surface 32 that conforms to fluid mechanics. The outer side surface of the inner guide plate 3 is provided with a plurality of stiffening ribs 33 to assist in forming the air guide curved surface 32. A protective layer 34 is also provided on the outer side of the air guide curved surface 32. The inner guide plate 3 is also provided with a sealing structure 35 perpendicular to the axis of the fan 6 at the position corresponding to the installation of the fan 6, which is used to fix the rotating shaft 61 of the fan 6.

[0042] When the fan 6 rotates, the air in the air duct 7 is blown out from the air outlet 31, thereby forming a negative pressure in the air duct 7. The external air can enter the air duct 7 through the air guide port 211 due to the negative pressure in the air duct 7. Further, a functional module is arranged on the air duct 7 to realize the processing of the air flowing through the air duct 7.

[0043] In one embodiment, an ozone generator 71 is provided at the air outlet 31, which has an electrode gap. The ozone generator 71 uses the oxygen (O2) in the air duct 7 and guides the oxygen to the ionization chamber, which is usually an electrode gap. In this space, an ionization source (such as an ultraviolet lamp or a corona discharger) provides sufficient energy to decompose the oxygen molecules into single oxygen atoms (O) and oxygen molecules (O2, but the ionization process here should be understood as the oxygen molecules being decomposed into free oxygen atoms O and the remaining oxygen molecules O2). The free oxygen atoms (O) generated during the ionization process combine with the undecomposed oxygen molecules (O2) to form ozone molecules (O3). This process can be expressed by a chemical equation: O+O2→O3. The generated ozone is released into the air, and the ozone is transported to the area to be treated with the guidance of the fan 6. In this embodiment, the drying objects hung or placed below the air outlet 31 are treated with ozone.

[0044] Furthermore, an ozone reducer 72 is also provided inside the air duct 7. Ozone is an unstable chemical component and will decompose naturally, but ozone has strong oxidizing properties, and the concentration, range and time of ozone action need to be controlled. Therefore, the remaining ozone after processing the drying objects needs to be removed to avoid adverse effects on the human body, items or equipment that are not resistant to strong oxidation. One possible implementation method is to contact ozone with a strong reducing agent to achieve ozone consumption. Removing ozone by chemical means has the advantage of low power consumption. Another method is to reduce the ozone concentration in the air by adsorption. Removing ozone by physical means also has the advantage of low power consumption. In this embodiment, the ozone reducer 72 is arranged at a position of the air duct 7 near the air guide port 211, and can be fixed to the inner wall of the first segment 21. The ozone reducer 72 includes a filter made of aluminum-zinc alloy and a reduction layer containing manganese dioxide. After the aluminum-zinc alloy reacts with ozone, an oxide layer will be formed on the surface. The aluminum-zinc alloy is equivalent to the adsorption medium of ozone. The oxide layer formed is equivalent to the protective layer 34 on the surface of the filter. Manganese dioxide is a metal oxide with strong reducing properties, which can promote the reduction of ozone to oxygen. When the air enters the air duct 7 through the air guide port 211, it first contacts the ozone reducer 72. The ozone reducer 72 will reduce the ozone or other oxidizing substances in the air to achieve harmlessness. When the reduced air flows through the air outlet 31, the air contacts the ozone generator 71, so that the oxygen is converted into ozone, and the newly generated ozone is transported to the bottom of the air outlet 31. The ozone generator 71 can be started on demand and is only enabled during the time period when ozone disinfection is required.

[0045] The fan 6 can not only deliver ozone, but also deliver temperature. When the far-infrared lamp and the near-infrared lamp are started, the air near the wick 51 can be heated. The fan 6 can guide the heated air near the air outlet 31 to the bottom to heat the air below. The strong wind formed by the fan 6 can also shake the drying objects, which can not only accelerate the air circulation on the surface of the drying objects, promote the exchange of ozone and heat, but also properly fluff the drying objects.

[0046] Furthermore, the illumination assembly 5 is installed through an adapter plate 4, which is connected to the position where the second segment 22 and the inner guide plate 3 overlap. In this embodiment, the adapter plate 4 is fixedly connected to the inner guide plate 3, which can be connected by bolts. The adapter plate 4 is detachably connected to the second segment 22, which can be reversibly connected to each other by respectively setting snap-on structures on both. A space for the illumination assembly 5 to be installed is formed between the connecting plate and the second segment 22, so that the light waves of the illumination assembly 5 can pass through the second segment 22 to irradiate the objects to be dried below. The aforementioned snap-on structure can be a card slot 41 configured on the lower surface of the adapter plate 4, and a card strip 223 configured on the upper surface of the second segment 22. The card strip 223 can be embedded in the card slot 41 by deformation to achieve fixation, and the card strip 223 can also be deformed and withdrawn from the card slot 41 under the pulling of external force to achieve separation. On the one hand, this connection method can ensure the stability of the assembly of the illumination component 5 and prevent the installation position of the illumination component 5 from being easily loosened. On the other hand, it can facilitate the replacement of the illumination component 5. The aforementioned wick 51 that can emit various wavelengths is a consumable material. It will be worn out after being used for a certain period of time and needs to be replaced. The assembly structure shown in this embodiment only needs to separate the second segment 22 from the adapter plate 4 to expose the illumination component 5 for replacement, or the entire outer guide plate 2 can be removed and the outer guide plate 2 can be cleaned to reduce dust and dirt adhering to the surface of the outer guide plate 2.

[0047] The sunlight-simulating drying device of the present application can form multiple working modes through the cooperation of various functional modules:

[0048] Disinfection mode, starting the working mode of at least one of the ultraviolet lamp 51 (generating UVA ultraviolet rays, UVB ultraviolet rays, UVC ultraviolet rays) and the ozone generator 71 in the illumination assembly 5;

[0049] Heating mode, starting the working mode of at least one of the far-infrared lamp wick 51 and the near-infrared lamp wick 51 in the illumination assembly 5;

[0050] Blowing mode, starts the working mode of the fan 6.

[0051] Based on the sunlight-simulating drying device and the electric clothes drying machine using the device of the present application, the present application also provides a sunlight-simulating drying control method, comprising the following steps:

[0052] Set the drying time;

[0053] The disinfection mode is started at the beginning and end of the timing respectively in the drying time;

[0054] The heating mode and the blowing mode are activated during the entire drying time.

[0055] The drying time refers to the time required to use the simulated sunlight drying device of the present application to assist in drying clothes, and does not refer to the total time the clothes are on the clothes drying machine. To further achieve the simulated sunlight drying effect, the drying time is set to no more than 8 hours, which can both simulate the sun exposure time and control power consumption. The built-in timing module is used to set the timing start time, timing initial time, end time, and timing final time of the drying time, so as to confirm the start nodes of the aforementioned working modes.

[0056] In this embodiment, the start time of the drying time can be set manually, or after the clothes drying machine feels the load, the start time of the timer can be set to 20 to 30 minutes after the start time of the timer, and the end time of the timer can be set to 20 to 30 minutes before the end time of the timer. Setting the start time and the end time of the timer is equivalent to setting the working time of the disinfection mode. According to common knowledge, 30 mg / m 3 The concentration of ozone can kill more than 90% of natural bacteria after 15 minutes of action. Combined with the actual situation of the application scenario of this application, the action time of ozone can be appropriately extended, and the working time of the disinfection mode can be adjusted according to the use environment of the clothes dryer and the power of the ozone generator 71.

[0057] Furthermore, the coordination between the heating mode and the blowing mode can affect the drying time. It is possible that when the heating mode and / or the blowing mode are started, the remaining drying time is predicted periodically according to the intensity of the infrared light emitted or reflected by the drying objects. The intensity of the infrared light emitted or reflected by the surface of the drying objects has a certain correlation with the humidity of the drying objects. The moisture content of the drying objects can be measured based on this, and the remaining drying time can be predicted in combination with the efficiency of the current heating mode and / or the blowing mode. When the remaining drying time obtained by prediction is less than the remaining timing time of the current drying time, the remaining timing time is replaced by the remaining drying time, which is conducive to shortening the total drying time; when the remaining drying time obtained by prediction is greater than the remaining timing time of the current drying time, the intensity of the heating mode and / or the blowing mode is adjusted so that the remaining drying time predicted in the next cycle is not greater than the remaining timing time of the current drying time, so as to ensure that the total drying time does not exceed the drying time. The heating mode can be adjusted by controlling the number of far-infrared lamps 51 and near-infrared lamps 51, or by coordinating the blowing mode; the blowing mode can be controlled by adjusting the speed of the fan 6. Through the control in the above manner, power consumption can be saved as much as possible, and it is also avoided that the drying objects are heated and blown for a long time, which has an adverse effect on the drying objects.

[0058] The sunlight-simulating drying device of the present application is preferably used in conjunction with an electric clothes drying machine. In other implementations, it can also be installed in a washing machine, a dryer, or other equipment with a clothes drying function. When the sunlight-simulating drying device of the present application is installed in a washing machine or a dryer, the specific structures of the outer guide plate 2, the inner guide plate 3, and the fan 6 used can be reasonably adjusted without affecting the essence of the invention of the present application.

[0059] The electric clothes drying machine applicable to the embodiments of the present application includes a main unit and a drying component, and the main unit is used to control the extension and contraction of the drying component. The drying component is functionally differentiated according to the main drying objects, including a main drying rack, a telescopic quilt drying rod, and an electric telescopic rack. In addition to executing the extension and contraction of the drying component, the main unit will also be configured with module functions related to clothes drying, and the imitation sunlight drying device of the present application is one of them. A possible implementation method is that the square sunlight drying device of the present application is mounted on the lower surface of the main unit, directly facing the drying component, and when it needs to be activated, the drying time starts timing.

[0060] In summary, the present application provides a device for simulating sunlight drying, which includes: a substrate; an outer guide plate connected to the longitudinal edge of the substrate, an air guide port is provided in the first segment outside the vertical projection area of ​​the substrate, and a light guide port is provided in the second segment within the vertical projection area of ​​the substrate; an inner guide plate connected to the bottom of the substrate, and a gap is provided between the lower edge of the inner guide plate and the edge of the second segment, which is used as an air outlet; an adapter plate connected to the position where the second segment overlaps with the inner guide plate; an illumination component, including a multi-wavelength lamp wick, connected to the adapter plate and facing the light guide port; a fan, mounted on the inner side of the inner guide plate, and forming an air duct with the inner wall of the inner guide plate. Further, the present application also provides a control method for simulating sunlight drying, including the following steps: setting the drying time; setting the initial timing and the final timing in the drying time to start the disinfection mode respectively; starting the heating mode and the blowing mode during the entire drying time. The sunlight-drying device of the present application is equipped with a lighting component including multi-wavelength wicks, which can configure wicks that have a positive effect on the drying effect according to the composition of sunlight, and the lighting component has a large layout area, so that the lighting area is large, the light is uniform, and the lighting effect is close to natural conditions.
