[0034] Furthermore, when the adjustment unit adjusts and controls the exhaust fan according to the humidity change data, it includes:

[0035] The adjustment unit collects second humidity data after the exhaust fan is turned on, and the adjustment unit establishes a humidity data graph based on the second humidity data according to the distribution positions of the humidity sensors;

[0036] In the humidity data graph, a second humidity data is arbitrarily determined as a center point (x0, y0), and a neighborhood range is determined with the center point as the center of a circle and r as the neighborhood radius;

[0037] Calculate the neighborhood average humidity according to the second humidity data of each coordinate point within the neighborhood range, and when the difference between the second humidity data of the center point and the neighborhood average humidity is greater than a humidity difference threshold, determine that the coordinates of the center point are defective coordinate points;

[0053] Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the accompanying drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided in order to enable a more thorough understanding of the present disclosure and to fully convey the scope of the present disclosure to those skilled in the art. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features described in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0054] With the improvement of living standards and the advancement of technology, the concept of smart home has gradually gained popularity, especially in home and commercial environments, the demand for heated and dried towels has continued to increase. In humid places such as bathrooms and toilets, the use of dry and warm towels has become an important element to improve the quality of life. Although robotics has made significant progress in various fields, including home cleaning, smart assistants, etc., the level of intelligence is still insufficient in the market segment specifically for towel heating and drying.

[0055] For example, traditional towel heating robots often use a fixed heating method and cannot adjust the heating power in real time according to the humidity changes of the towels, resulting in low heating efficiency and uneven drying. This means that some towels may not be completely dried due to uneven heating, which brings inconvenience to users and may even cause bacteria to grow, thus affecting health. Many existing towel heating robots lack intelligent control systems and cannot automatically sense changes in humidity in the environment. Especially in environments with high humidity, this leads to time waste and energy consumption during use. In addition, current towel heating products fail to achieve effective linkage control with other home appliances. For example, whether the exhaust fan is turned on or off, and the adjustment of indoor humidity, etc. require manual operation by the user. This limitation of lack of collaborative work not only reduces the convenience of home life, but may also lead to an increase in overall energy consumption. Therefore, it is necessary to design a towel heating method with furniture linkage control function to solve the problems existing in the current technology.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1As shown, a towel heating device with furniture linkage control function includes: a housing 110, a heating barrel 120, a wifi module 130, a mechanical arm 140, a mobile module 150 and a control module 160. The heating barrel 120 is arranged in the housing 110 for heating towels. The wifi module 130 is used to connect the device to be controlled through the Internet of Things. The device to be controlled includes an exhaust fan and a humidity sensor, and a plurality of humidity sensors are provided. An infrared spectrum sensor is provided on the mechanical arm 140. The control module 160 is respectively connected to the wifi module 130, the heating barrel 120, the mobile module 150 and the mechanical arm 140, and the control module 160 includes a collection unit, a judgment unit, a processing unit and an adjustment unit.

[0057] The collection unit is configured to collect data of the range to be inspected, and determine the duration of a single inspection according to the data of the range to be inspected.

[0058] The judgment unit is configured to collect a reflectivity curve of the infrared spectrum sensor, judge the dryness or wetness of the towel according to the reflectivity curve, and control the robot arm 140 to put the wet towel into the heating barrel 120 .

[0059] The processing unit is configured to determine the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel 120 according to the number of wet towels in the heating barrel 120, the water content and the historical processing data.

[0060] The adjustment unit is configured to collect humidity data from all humidity sensors after the processing unit determines the operating power, and determine whether to turn on the exhaust fan based on the humidity data. When it is determined to turn on the exhaust fan, the adjustment unit is also configured to collect humidity change data and adjust and control the exhaust fan based on the humidity change data.

[0061] Specifically, the housing 110 provides overall structural support, protects internal components, and has aesthetic and safety functions. The heating barrel 120 is used to heat the wet towel to ensure uniform heat distribution and improve heating efficiency. The wifi module 130 connects the device to be controlled (such as an exhaust fan and a humidity sensor) through the Internet of Things to achieve linkage control. The robotic arm 140 is equipped with an infrared spectrum sensor, which is responsible for identifying the dry and wet state of the towel, and can automatically put the wet towel into the heating barrel 120, reducing the manual operation of the user. The mobile module 150 is set at the bottom of the device to achieve free movement of the device, and a sensing unit can also be set to assist the towel heating robot in identifying the environment and route. The sensing unit includes a camera and a distance sensor. The control module 160 is the core of the device, which includes a collection unit, a judgment unit, a processing unit and an adjustment unit, and is responsible for monitoring and controlling the overall system. The collection unit is responsible for collecting data of the inspection range in real time, including the number of wet towels, environmental humidity and other information to determine the duration of the inspection. The judgment unit obtains the reflectivity curve of the towel through the infrared spectrum sensor to determine the dry and wet state of the towel. It ensures that the robotic arm 140 can accurately identify the wet towel and process it. The processing unit intelligently determines the operating power of the hot air blower based on the number of wet towels, water content, and historical data in the heating barrel 120. The dynamic adjustment mechanism improves heating efficiency and reduces energy waste. After obtaining data from the humidity sensor, the adjustment unit determines whether the exhaust fan needs to be turned on to promote drying, and adjusts the working state of the exhaust fan in real time according to humidity changes, thereby ensuring the comfort and drying efficiency of the indoor environment.

[0062] It is understandable that by integrating intelligent control and automated management functions, the towel heating process is fully optimized. The humidity status of the towel is sensed in real time, and the heating and ventilation settings are automatically adjusted, which improves the heating efficiency and avoids the problem of uneven drying. The Internet of Things technology is used to achieve linkage with other home appliances, allowing users to manage remotely, reducing the trouble of manual operation and improving the overall convenience of use. This embodiment improves the energy efficiency of the equipment, reduces energy consumption, and effectively reduces the risk of bacterial growth.

[0063] In some embodiments of the present application, when the collection unit determines the duration of a single inspection according to the data of the range to be inspected, it includes:

[0064]

[0065] Among them, T represents the duration of a single inspection, A represents the area to be inspected, V represents the moving speed of the mobile module, C represents the single detection duration of the infrared spectrum sensor, S represents the moving speed of the mobile module in the detection state, and k represents the degree coefficient of the number of items in the range to be inspected.

[0066] It is understandable that the degree coefficient of the number of items in the range to be inspected indicates the number of items in the range to be inspected. The more items there are, the greater the degree coefficient of the number of items in the range to be inspected. The value of the degree coefficient of the number of items in the range to be inspected is 1-5. By dynamically calculating the duration of a single inspection, the inspection strategy can be intelligently adjusted according to the actual area of ​​the range to be inspected, the number of items, sensor performance and other conditions. The real-time monitoring capability of the towel status is improved, the errors caused by human operation are reduced, the inspection time is shortened, and the overall workflow is optimized. The intelligent inspection method enhances the convenience of use and user experience of the towel heating device.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present application, when the judgment unit judges the dry or wet state of the towel according to the reflectivity curve, it includes: the judgment unit obtains a reflectivity value according to the reflectivity curve, compares the reflectivity value with a reflectivity threshold, and judges the dry or wet state of the towel according to the comparison result.

[0068] Specifically, when the reflectivity value is greater than the reflectivity threshold, the judgment unit determines that the towel is a dry towel. When the reflectivity value is less than or equal to the reflectivity threshold, the judgment unit determines that the towel is a wet towel, determines the moisture content of the towel according to the reflectivity value, and transmits the moisture content to the processing unit.

[0069] It is understandable that reflectivity refers to the ability of an object's surface to reflect light. Wet towels and dry towels show significant differences in reflectivity. Wet towels have lower reflectivity because moisture absorbs part of the light. Dry towels, on the other hand, have higher reflectivity and can reflect light more effectively. Therefore, by detecting the reflectivity value and comparing it with a preset reflectivity threshold, the wet and dry states of the towel can be effectively distinguished. By judging the wet and dry states of the towel, the foundation is laid for the subsequent processing and heating process. The judgment method using the reflectivity curve not only improves the accuracy of humidity identification, but also can quickly monitor the moisture content of the towel to ensure that the towel is optimally treated during the heating process. Through automated judgment, there is no need to manually check the state of the towel, which improves the convenience and safety of use. In addition, this embodiment is conducive to reducing energy consumption and avoiding waste of resources caused by incorrect judgment of the wet and dry states.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, when the processing unit determines the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel 120 according to the number of wet towels, the water content and the historical processing data in the heating barrel 120, it includes: the processing unit uses the maximum water content in the water content transmitted by the judgment unit as the water content in the heating barrel 120. The processing unit records the number of wet towels and the water content as the current task parameters, and records the historical number of wet towels and the historical water content in the historical processing data as the historical task parameters, and the historical processing data also includes the historical operating power corresponding to the historical task parameters. The processing unit calculates the similarity between the current task parameters and each historical task parameter.

[0071] Specifically, when there is data in the historical task parameters whose similarity with the current task parameters is greater than the similarity threshold, the processing unit uses the historical operating power corresponding to the historical task parameters as the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel 120. When the similarity between each historical task parameter and the current task parameter is less than or equal to the similarity threshold, the processing unit uses the historical operating power corresponding to the historical task parameter corresponding to the historical task parameter with the maximum similarity as the initial power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel 120, and adjusts the initial power according to the historical operating powers corresponding to the remaining historical task parameters, and finally obtains the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel 120.

[0072] It can be understood that the working principle of the processing unit is to use the similarity between the current state of the wet towel and the historical data to infer the optimal heating power. By analyzing the number and water content of the wet towels in the historical data, the power of the hot air blower required in the past is inferred, so as to quickly make more reasonable adjustments. The processing unit regards the maximum water content transmitted by the judgment unit as the current water content in the heating barrel 120, and records it as the current task parameter in combination with the number of wet towels. The processing unit extracts the number and water content of the wet towels from the historical processing data, and stores them together with the corresponding historical operating power as historical task parameters. If there is data with a similarity greater than the set similarity threshold, the corresponding historical operating power will be selected as the operating power of the hot air blower. If the similarity of all historical task parameters is less than or equal to the similarity threshold, the initial power is determined according to the historical task parameter corresponding to the maximum similarity value, and it is adjusted to calculate the final operating power. By combining real-time data with historical data, a more accurate adjustment basis is provided for the operating power of the hot air blower. Through similarity analysis, not only can different heating needs be flexibly responded to, but also unnecessary energy consumption can be avoided. This makes the hot air blower run more efficiently and can quickly adapt and optimize the drying process under different humidity and quantity conditions, improving the heating effect and energy efficiency.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present application, when the processing unit adjusts the initial power according to the historical operating power corresponding to the remaining historical task parameters, and finally obtains the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel 120, it includes: the processing unit forms the data whose water content in the remaining historical task parameters is greater than the water content in the current task parameters into an increase set. The processing unit forms the data whose water content in the remaining historical task parameters is less than the water content in the current task parameters into a decrease set. The processing unit adjusts the initial power according to the increase set and the decrease set, and finally obtains the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel 120.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present application, when the processing unit adjusts the initial power according to the increase set and the decrease set, it includes:

[0075]

[0076] Among them, G represents the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel, N1 represents the number of historical operating powers in the increase set, G1j is the jth historical operating power in the increase set, G0 represents the initial power, N2 represents the number of historical operating powers in the decrease set, and G2q is the qth historical operating power in the decrease set.

[0077] It is understandable that the processing unit uses the increase and decrease sets to achieve detailed adjustment of the initial power. The increase set contains historical data with a moisture content higher than the current task parameters, while the decrease set contains historical data with a moisture content lower than the current task parameters. This ensures that the adjustment of the heating power can be based on historical experience, thereby achieving more accurate heating control. By dynamically adjusting the initial power and making full use of the statistical characteristics of historical data, the operating power of the hot air blower can more accurately reflect the actual moisture content of the current wet towel. The mechanism of flexibly adjusting the power according to actual conditions improves the drying efficiency and effectively reduces energy consumption. At the same time, this embodiment can automatically adapt to the use requirements under different conditions, thereby improving the intelligence level and scope of application of the equipment.

[0078] In some embodiments of the present application, when the adjustment unit determines whether to turn on the exhaust fan based on the humidity data, it includes: the adjustment unit obtains the humidity mean based on all the humidity data, compares the humidity mean with the humidity threshold, and determines whether to turn on the exhaust fan based on the comparison result.

[0079] Specifically, when the humidity mean value is greater than the humidity threshold, the adjustment unit determines to turn on the exhaust fan. When the humidity mean value is less than or equal to the humidity threshold, the adjustment unit determines not to turn on the exhaust fan.

[0080] It is understandable that the adjustment unit determines whether the exhaust fan needs to be turned on by calculating the average humidity of all humidity sensors and comparing it with the preset humidity threshold. It realizes real-time response to environmental changes to ensure that the humidity is maintained within the ideal range. By real-time monitoring and dynamic adjustment of humidity, the environment of the heating robot is always in the best condition. By intelligently turning on the exhaust fan, the ambient humidity can be effectively reduced, the drying speed of the towel can be increased, and the bacterial growth and odor caused by excessive humidity can be prevented. Automated humidity management improves the drying effect and reduces dependence on manual intervention by the user, realizing smart home linkage control.

[0081] In some embodiments of the present application, when the adjustment unit adjusts and controls the exhaust fan according to the humidity change data, it includes:

[0082] The adjustment unit collects the second humidity data after the exhaust fan is turned on, and the adjustment unit establishes a humidity data graph based on the second humidity data according to the distribution positions of the humidity sensors.

[0083] In the humidity data graph, a second humidity data is randomly determined as the center point (x0, y0), and the neighborhood range is determined with the center point as the center of the circle and r as the neighborhood radius.

[0084] The neighborhood average humidity is calculated based on the second humidity data of each coordinate point within the neighborhood range. When the difference between the second humidity data of the center point and the neighborhood average humidity is greater than the humidity difference threshold, the coordinates of the center point are determined to be defective coordinate points.

[0085] The defect coordinate center is obtained according to all defect coordinate points, and the adjustment unit aligns the air inlet of the exhaust fan with the defect coordinate center.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present application, the neighborhood average humidity is calculated by the following formula:

[0087]

[0088] Among them, D avg represents the average intensity of the neighborhood, k represents the neighborhood radius, (x0, y0) represents the coordinates of the center point, and D(i, j) represents the second humidity data at point (i, j) on the humidity data graph.

[0089] It is understandable that the adjustment unit collects the second humidity data after turning on the exhaust fan, constructs a humidity data graph, and analyzes the graph to determine the uniformity of the humidity distribution. If it is found that the humidity in a certain area is significantly higher than the average level, the area will be ventilated in a focused manner to improve the overall humidity management effect. By analyzing the humidity data graph, accurate identification and rapid response to humidity problem areas are achieved. By locating the defect coordinates and adjusting the air inlet of the exhaust fan, the uniform distribution of humidity can be improved and the phenomenon of excessive local humidity can be reduced. This embodiment not only improves the drying efficiency of towels, but also enhances the intelligent management capabilities of the overall equipment.

[0090] In the above embodiment, an intelligent towel heating robot is constructed through a shell, a heating barrel, a WiFi module, a mechanical arm, a mobile module and a control module, which improves the heating and drying efficiency. The intelligent control and automated management functions can collect and analyze the dry and wet status of the towel in real time, and automatically adjust the operating power of the hot air blower in the heating barrel through infrared spectrum sensors and humidity sensors to ensure that the towel achieves the best drying effect in the shortest time. In addition, the WiFi module realizes linkage control with other household appliances, and can also remotely monitor and manage the heating status of the towel through the Internet of Things technology, avoiding the inconvenience and energy waste caused by manual adjustment. Fully automatic and intelligent not only improves the user experience, reduces the risk of bacterial growth, but also helps save energy.

[0091] In another preferred embodiment based on the above embodiment, refer to Figure 2As shown, this embodiment provides a towel heating method with furniture linkage control function, which is applied to a towel heating device with furniture linkage control function, including:

[0092] S100: Collect data of the range to be inspected, and determine the duration of a single inspection according to the data of the range to be inspected;
