Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of laundry and drying, and in particular to a laundry drying device and a control method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the development of social economy, clothes drying equipment has been widely used, especially in areas with high humidity. The drying function of clothes drying equipment meets people's needs for clothes to be dried quickly. Common laundry drying equipment or clothes drying equipment drying systems generally include electric heating water condensation drying system, electric heating air condensation drying system, and heat pump heating drying system with evaporator condensation combined with condenser heating. Compared with the first two drying systems, the heat pump heating drying system is relatively energy-saving and has a broader market application prospect.
[0003] When the ambient temperature of the existing heat pump clothes drying equipment is relatively low (for example, less than 15°C), more heat is needed to make all the parts of the dryer reach a suitable working state. The temperature rise rate of the whole system is about 40% slower than that at the normal temperature of 23°C, which causes the drying time to be prolonged. Moreover, the temperature inside the drum is also relatively low during operation, and a good drying effect cannot be achieved, which affects the user experience. In addition, the existing heat pump clothes drying equipment will directly shut down after drying. If the user does not take out the clothes in time, the clothes will slowly get cold over time, and the clothes will feel bad when they are taken out. Moreover, if the clothes are not taken out for a long time, it may cause odor or breed bacteria, affecting the health of the user. Summary of the invention
[0004] The problem to be solved by the present invention is that in the prior art, the heat pump clothes drying equipment heats up slowly when the ambient temperature is low, the clothes drying time is long, and after the clothes are dried, the user does not take them out for a long time, which makes it easy for the clothes to have odor or bacteria.
[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a clothes drying device and a control method thereof. An auxiliary heating device is arranged in the heat pump system of the clothes drying device, and the auxiliary heating device is arranged in the gap of the condenser, so that the heat pump system heats up quickly, and the temperature inside the drum is also increased, thereby accelerating the drying speed of the clothes. In addition, the control method provided in the present application performs intermittent heating of the clothes after the clothes are dried, so that the clothes can be kept dry and clean without the user taking out the clothes, thereby preventing the growth of bacteria.
[0006] The present invention discloses a clothes drying device, comprising a clothes drying drum, an air duct and a heat pump system. The heat pump system comprises a compressor, a condenser and an evaporator, and is characterized in that an auxiliary heating device is arranged on the condenser.
[0007] When the ambient temperature is low, more heat is needed to make all the parts of the dryer reach the appropriate working temperature. By setting an auxiliary heating device on the condenser, the passing air can be quickly heated, thereby quickly increasing the temperature of the dryer drum and the gas passing through the heat exchanger surface. The circulating air also heats the parts in the air duct, thereby shortening the heating time of the heat pump system and achieving the purpose of quickly drying clothes. The auxiliary heating device can be set in the middle of the condenser or can be set on the condenser.
[0008] Furthermore, the condenser includes at least two interconnected heat exchange components, there is a gap between adjacent heat exchange components, and an auxiliary heating device is provided in at least one of the gaps.
[0009] There is at least one gap between the condensers. The condensers can be placed in parallel with the evaporators or perpendicular to the evaporators. The auxiliary heating device can be directly arranged in the gap or can be mounted on the heat exchange assembly through the gap.
[0010] Furthermore, the compressor is arranged between the outlet of the evaporator and the inlet of the condenser, the exhaust pipe of the compressor is connected to the condenser through a first pipeline, and the heat pump system also includes a throttling device, the two ends of the throttling device are respectively connected to the outlet of the condenser and the inlet of the evaporator.
[0011] The evaporator is used to absorb heat and vaporize the refrigerant and then send it into the compressor. The compressor converts the vaporized refrigerant into high-pressure and high-temperature gas and sends it into the condenser. The condenser is used to release heat from the high-pressure and high-temperature gas to heat the air passing through its surface. The throttling device is used to convert the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant sent out from the condenser into low-pressure and low-temperature refrigerant and send it into the evaporator, thereby realizing the recycling of the refrigerant.
[0012] Furthermore, a first temperature sensor is provided on the compressor exhaust pipe, and a second temperature sensor is provided at the outlet of the condenser.
[0013] A plurality of temperature sensors are provided in the clothes drying device of the present application for monitoring the ambient temperature in real time so as to perform different operations when the ambient temperature reaches a preset value, thereby saving energy and time.
[0014] Furthermore, the air duct includes an air inlet duct and an air outlet duct, the air outlet of the air inlet duct is connected to the air inlet of the drying drum, the air inlet of the air outlet duct is connected to the air outlet of the drying drum, the other ends of the air inlet duct and the air outlet duct are both connected to the heat pump system, the evaporator is arranged near the air outlet of the air outlet duct, and the condenser is arranged near the entrance of the air inlet duct.
[0015] The air inlet duct is used to convey the hot dry air into the drying drum so as to dry the clothes in the drying drum. During drying, the moisture in the clothes evaporates and turns into water vapor. The air outlet duct is used to discharge the humid hot air containing water vapor after drying the clothes from the drying drum, so as to convey new hot dry air through the air inlet duct to continuously dry the clothes. The air outlet duct conveys the humid hot air into the heat pump system. The heat pump system processes the humid hot air, converts it into dry hot air, and then conveys it into the air inlet duct, so as to realize the air circulation in the clothes drying device described in the present application. When the humid hot gas discharged from the air outlet duct passes through the evaporator, the refrigerant in the evaporator absorbs heat and vaporizes. At this time, the humid hot air is cooled, and the water vapor contained therein is condensed and discharged to become low-temperature dry air. When the low-temperature dry air passes through the condenser, it absorbs the heat released by the refrigerant therein, thereby being quickly heated into dry hot air. The dry hot air is conveyed into the drying drum through the air inlet duct to dry the clothes.
[0016] Furthermore, the clothes drying device also includes a circulation fan, which is arranged in the air inlet duct and is used to send the hot air passing through the heat pump system into the drying drum.
[0017] The circulating fan is used to send hot dry air into the drying drum, thereby promoting the air flow in the system to dry the clothes.
[0018] Furthermore, a third temperature sensor is provided at the air inlet of the air outlet duct.
[0019] The third temperature sensor is also used to monitor the ambient temperature, and is mainly used to detect the time period during which the user has not taken out the clothes after the drying work is completed, so as to perform different operations according to the monitoring results. It should be noted that a humidity sensor is also provided at the air inlet of the air outlet duct, and the humidity sensor is used to monitor the dryness of the clothes, so as to determine whether the drying work is completed.
[0020] Furthermore, the auxiliary heating device is a ceramic PTC heater and / or an electric heating tube.
[0021] At least one auxiliary heating device is arranged in the gap of the condenser. Both the ceramic PTC heater and the electric heating tube have the characteristics of fast heating speed and uniform heating, and can quickly reach the target temperature. When more than two auxiliary heating devices are arranged in the system, the auxiliary heating devices can all be ceramic PTC heaters or all be electric heating tubes, or a mixture of ceramic PTC heaters and electric heating tubes.
[0022] Furthermore, the heat exchange component is one or a combination of a copper-aluminum heat exchanger, a microchannel heat exchanger, an aluminum tube and aluminum fin heat exchanger, and an all-aluminum heat exchanger.
[0023] The heat exchange component can be copper-aluminum + copper-aluminum, copper-aluminum + microchannel, microchannel + microchannel, aluminum tube + aluminum tube, or a combination of the above heat exchangers, and is specifically set according to the model, function and space size of the equipment.
[0024] The present invention also discloses a control method for a clothes drying device, which is used to control the clothes drying device as described above. The control method comprises the following steps:
[0025] S1: Turn on the clothes drying device;
[0026] S2: Detect the ambient temperature t1, and compare the detected ambient temperature t1 with the first preset temperature T1. When t1<T1, execute S3; when t1≥T1, execute S4;
[0027] S3: Turn on the auxiliary heating device, and turn off the auxiliary heating device when it is detected that the ambient temperature reaches a fourth preset temperature T4, wherein T4 ≥ T1;
[0028] S4: Drying clothes;
[0029] S5: Prompt the user after drying is completed;
[0030] S6: after the first preset time M1, if the user takes out the clothes, the machine is turned off and the work ends; if the user does not take out the clothes, S7 is executed;
[0031] S7: If it is detected that the ambient temperature t1 is less than the second preset temperature T2, if yes, the circulating fan and the auxiliary heating device are turned on, otherwise, S6 is executed;
[0032] S8: When the second preset time M2 is run and / or the ambient temperature t1 is detected to be ≥ the third preset temperature T3, wherein T3>T2, the auxiliary heating device and the circulating fan are turned off;
[0033] S9: Determine whether the time from the completion of drying the clothes to the present reaches the preset total time M3. If yes, shut down the machine and end the work; if no, execute S6;
[0034] During the execution of any one of S6 to S9, if the user takes out the clothes, the operation will be terminated immediately and the machine will be turned off.
[0035] The ambient temperature t1 is the temperature in the system pipeline or air duct. Specifically, the ambient temperature t1 is the detection result of any one of the first temperature sensor, the second temperature sensor, and the third temperature sensor. According to the above control method, within the preset time period M3 after the clothes drying device completes the drying work, if the user has not taken out the clothes after the interval M1, and it is detected that the ambient temperature is lower than the second preset temperature T2, the circulating fan and the auxiliary heating device are turned on. Specifically, the circulating fan is turned on first, and then the auxiliary heating device is turned on to heat the clothes. When the operation interval M2 and / or the ambient temperature is detected to be greater than the third preset temperature T3, the circulating fan and the auxiliary heating device are turned off. Then, if it is determined that the time from the end of drying to the current time has not reached the preset total time M3, S6-S9 are executed cyclically to ensure that the clothes are always in a dry environment to prevent bacteria from growing. During the execution of any link from S6 to S9, as long as the user takes out the clothes, the work is immediately ended, making the use of the clothes drying device described in the present application more humane and energy-saving.
[0036] Compared with the prior art, the clothes drying device and the control method thereof described in the present invention have the following advantages: the present invention arranges an auxiliary heating device in the heat pump system of the clothes drying device, and arranges the auxiliary heating device on the condenser, so that the heat pump system heats up quickly, and also increases the temperature inside the drum, thereby accelerating the drying speed of the clothes. In addition, the control method provided in the present application performs intermittent heating of the clothes after the clothes are dried, which can keep the clothes dry and clean without the user taking out the clothes, prevents the growth of bacteria, and plays an important protective role in the health of the user. The present invention has a simple structure, can significantly shorten the drying time of clothes, and is more energy-efficient. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
