[0041] The care box of existing clothing care machines is usually equipped with transparent glass so that users can observe the internal state of the care box through the transparent glass. However, during the care process, the temperature inside the transparent glass is higher than that outside, causing the water vapor inside the transparent glass to condense on the inner surface of the transparent glass to form water mist, which affects the user's observation.

[0042] In view of this, an embodiment of the present invention provides a clothing care machine, whose door body includes a door panel and a door glass, and a light-transmitting space is formed between the door panel and the door glass. The gas in the light-transmitting space is heated by a hot air component to avoid condensation on the door panel and the door glass to form water mist that affects observation, and a lighting lamp is provided to enhance the light during observation, so that the user can observe the status inside the care box more clearly.

[0043] The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and are not to be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0044] First refer to Figure 1 ,in, Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the structure of the clothing care machine provided by the embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the clothing care machine provided by an embodiment of the present invention includes: a control circuit board 2, a hot air component 5, a care box 7, a door body 1 hinged on the care box 7, and at least one lighting lamp 3. The door body 1 and the care box 7 form a care space 70, and the lighting lamp 3 is installed in the care space 70.

[0045] Specifically, the nursing box 7 includes an external casing 71 and an inner liner 72 located inside the casing 71. The casing 71 is used to protect the inner liner 72. The inner liner 72 forms a storage space for storing clothes. A hanger 721 for hanging clothes is provided on the top of the inner liner 72. Optionally, the casing 71 and the inner liner 72 are a shell structure with an open front side, and the front side opening is used to install the door body 1.

[0046] The door body 1 is hinged to the casing 71. For example, the door body 1 is connected to the casing 71 by a hinge so that the door body 1 can rotate relative to the casing 71 to move the door body 1 away from the inner liner 72, thereby opening the nursing box 7; or to move the door body 1 close to the inner liner 72 and form an enclosed nursing space 70 with the inner liner 72.

[0047] The clothing care machine provided in this embodiment may further include a steam generator, which may be installed at the bottom of the care box 7 for generating steam. Furthermore, the steam outlet of the steam generator is connected to the inner tank 72 via a pipe, so as to allow the steam generated by the steam generator to pass into the inner tank 72 for clothing care.

[0048] The structure and function of the door body 1 provided by the embodiment of the present invention are described in detail below. Figure 2 and Figure 3 ,in, Figure 2 An exploded view of a door body provided by an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 3 for Figure 2 Schematic diagram of the enlarged P.

[0049] Combine Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in some implementations, the door body 1 includes: a control switch, a door panel 10, and a door glass 14 mounted on the door panel 10; a light-transmitting plate 121 is provided on the door panel 10, and a light-transmitting space is formed between the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14. That is, light emitted by the lighting lamp 3 can enter the light-transmitting space through the light-transmitting plate and then pass through the light-transmitting space to the door glass 14, allowing the user to observe the status of the clothes in the care space 70. The air outlet of the hot air component 5 is connected to the light-transmitting space, so that the hot air component 5 can heat the light-transmitting space, thereby heating the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14, and preventing condensation on the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14 to produce water mist that affects observation; the control circuit board 2 is electrically connected to the lighting lamp 3, the control switch, and the hot air component 5 respectively. When the control switch is turned on, the control circuit board 2 controls the lighting lamp 3 to turn on and controls the hot air component 5 to heat the gas in the light-transmitting space.

[0050] Specifically, door body 1 includes a door panel 10 and a door glass 14. The shape of door panel 10 matches the shape of the front opening of inner liner 72 to ensure the airtightness of the clothing care space and prevent steam from leaking out and affecting the care effect and efficiency. Door glass 14 is installed on the outside of door panel 10 to improve the aesthetics of door body 1.

[0051] Optionally, refer to Figure 2 The door panel 10 includes a door frame 11 and an inner panel 12. The inner panel 12 is installed on the inner side of the door frame 11, and the door glass 14 is installed on the outer side of the door frame 11, so that there is a gap between the inner panel 12 and the door glass 14, and the space between the light-transmitting plate 121 provided on the inner panel 12 and the door glass 14 is the light-transmitting space. By limiting the light-transmitting space in this way, it can be avoided that the observation space is too large, resulting in excessive exposure of the nursing space and affecting the aesthetics. It can be understood that the "outside" mentioned here refers to the side away from the nursing space 70, and the "inside" refers to the side close to the nursing space 70. Of course, the door frame 11 is also used to be hinged with the nursing box 7, so that the door body 1 can be opened or closed relative to the nursing box 7.

[0052] Exemplarily, the door frame 11 includes a top frame 113 and a bottom frame 114 spaced apart from each other, as well as a first side frame 115 and a second side frame 116. The first side frame 115 and the second side frame 116 are respectively arranged on both sides of the top frame 113 and the bottom frame 114. In this way, the top frame 113, the first side frame 115, the bottom frame 114 and the second side frame 116 are sequentially connected to form a rectangular door frame 11. Optionally, a shielding plate 118 is further provided at the bottom of the door frame 11. The shielding plate 118 is used to shield structures such as a steam generator installed at the bottom of the nursing box 7.

[0053] The inner panel 12 may be sealed and mounted on the inner side of the door frame 11 . For example, a sealing gasket may be provided between the inner panel 12 and the door frame 11 , and the inner panel 12 and the door frame 11 may be fixedly connected by screws.

[0054] At this time, a light-transmitting plate 121 is provided on the inner plate 12, and the light-transmitting plate 121 can be provided in various forms. In one example, the inner plate 12 and the light-transmitting plate 121 are the same plate; that is, the inner plate 12 is a whole plate structure that can transmit light. For example, the inner plate 12 is a light-transmitting plastic plate, such as a polycarbonate (PC for short) plate, a polyethersulfone resin (PES for short) plate, etc.; for another example, the inner plate 12 is a light-transmitting glass plate with good light transmittance, which improves the clarity of user observation. In another example, referring to Figure 2 The inner panel 12 is provided with a mounting opening 122, on which a light-transmitting plate 121 is mounted. Light-transmitting plate 121 may be made of a polycarbonate (PC) board, a polyethersulfone (PES) board, or the like. Alternatively, a light-transmitting glass plate may be mounted on the mounting opening 122. This light-transmitting glass plate is light-transmitting plate 121. Installing a light-transmitting glass plate on the mounting opening 122 not only improves light transmittance, but also reduces costs by limiting the installation to a portion of the inner panel 12. Furthermore, the structure within the nursing box 7 can be shielded.

[0055] There are various ways to attach the door glass 14 to the exterior of the door frame 11. For example, the door glass 14 can be bonded to the exterior of the door frame 11, which does not affect the aesthetics of the door body 1. Alternatively, the door glass 14 can be clipped onto the exterior of the door frame 11, providing a stable and reliable connection. Alternatively, the door glass 14 can cover the entire exterior of the door frame 11, further enhancing the aesthetics of the nursing cabinet.

[0056] Optionally, the door glass 14 includes an observation area 141 and a shielded area 144. The observation area 141 is opposite the light-transmitting plate 121, and the space between the observation area 141 and the light-transmitting plate 121 is a light-transmitting space. Light from the lighting lamp 3 installed in the care space 70 can be emitted outside the observation area 141 through the light-transmitting plate 121 and the light-transmitting space, allowing the user to observe the clothing care status in the care space 70 through the observation area 141, the light-transmitting space, and the light-transmitting plate 121. The observation area 141 can be any shape, for example, a rectangular area, a circular area, etc.

[0057] Except for the observation area 141, other positions of the door glass 14 can be the blocking area 144. A shading film is provided on the inner side of the door glass in the blocking area 144. The shading film can be an ink film layer, a paint film layer, etc. In this way, the structure of the care box 7 outside the observation area 141 can be blocked to improve the aesthetics of the clothing care machine.

[0058] This embodiment does not limit the glass type of the door glass 14. The door glass 14 can be transparent glass or translucent glass. Optionally, the door glass 14 is translucent glass. When the lighting lamp 3 is turned off, since there is no other light source in the inner tank 72, no light is emitted from the inside of the nursing box. The observation area 141 of the door glass 14 seen by the user is dark, which is integrated with the shielding area 144 of the door glass 14, thereby improving the aesthetics of the door body 1. Optionally, the door glass 14 is dimming glass, and the dimming glass is electrically connected to the control circuit board 2. When it is necessary to observe the internal state of the nursing box, the control circuit board 2 controls the dimmable glass to become transparent when the control switch is turned on; after the observation is completed, the control circuit board 2 controls the dimmable glass to become non-transparent, thereby improving the aesthetics of the appearance of the door body 1.

[0059] In addition, the door glass 14 is also provided with a display area 142, which is of course located in the obstruction area 144. The relative position of the display area 142 and the observation area 141 can be various. For example, the display area 142 can be set above or below the observation area 141; or, the display area 142 can be set to the left or right side of the observation area 141. Specifically, a touch film 1421 is adhered to the inner side of the door glass in the display area 142, and the touch film 1421 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 2. In other words, the door body 1 of this embodiment is provided with a display operation screen for controlling the operating status of the clothing care machine, and the glass cover of the display operation screen is part of the door glass 14. The user inputs control instructions for the clothing care machine by touching the display area 142. For example, the user can select different care modes by touching different positions; for another example, the user can turn the clothing care machine on and off through different touch operations, such as single-clicking or double-clicking. This embodiment utilizes a touch screen film 1421 attached to the display area 142 of the door glass 14, which is electrically connected to the control circuit board 2. This allows for input of control commands for the clothing care machine, resulting in simple and convenient operation. Furthermore, the structure is simple and does not affect the aesthetics of the care box. The "inner side of the door glass" referred to herein refers to the side of the door glass 14 facing the care space 70.

[0060] In a possible embodiment, a plurality of observation areas 141 are provided on the door glass 14, and the plurality of observation areas 141 are spaced apart along the height direction of the door glass 14. For example, two observation areas 141 are spaced apart along the height direction of the door glass 14, and the user can observe the status of the upper part of the clothing through the upper observation area 141 and the status of the lower part of the clothing through the lower observation area 141. This embodiment increases the observation area by providing a plurality of observation areas 141, while providing a plurality of observation positions to improve the comprehensiveness of the user's observation of the clothing care status, and provides observation positions at a plurality of height positions to accommodate users of different heights, which is conducive to improving the user experience. The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the number, arrangement and shape of the observation areas 141, and those skilled in the art can set them according to actual conditions.

[0061] The clothing care machine of this embodiment is provided with a hot air component 5, and the air outlet of the hot air component 5 is connected to the light-transmitting space. The hot air component 5 introduces hot air into the light-transmitting space through the air outlet to heat the gas in the light-transmitting space, thereby heating the door glass 14 and the door panel to prevent the formation of water mist on the door glass 14 and the door panel from affecting observation. There are many installation positions for the hot air component 5. For example, a mounting seat is provided on the inner side of the door panel 10 to install the hot air component 5; for another example, the hot air component 5 can also be installed at the bottom of the care space 70 and connected to the light-transmitting space through a pipe to reduce the weight of the door body 1. The installation position of the hot air component 5 is not limited here.

[0062] It should be noted that the air outlet of the hot air assembly 5 can be set on a structure that encloses the light-transmitting space, or the air outlet of the hot air assembly 5 can be set on its own housing, and the air outlet is connected to the light-transmitting space through a duct. In the embodiment of the present invention, the air outlet of the hot air assembly 5 is a plurality of air outlet holes 1312 evenly distributed at the bottom of the inner ring frame 131 of the light guide frame 13.

[0063] At least one lighting lamp 3 is provided in the nursing space 70 to increase the brightness of the light in the nursing space 70 and facilitate the user to observe the clothing care status in the nursing space 70. The lighting lamp 3 can be an existing lamp, such as an incandescent lamp, an LED lamp, etc. The installation position of the lighting lamp 3 can be various. For example, the lighting lamp 3 is installed on the inner side of the door panel 10; for another example, the lighting lamp 3 is installed on the inner liner 72 of the nursing box 7. Figure 1 In an optional embodiment, the lighting lamp 3 is installed on the top of the inner liner 72 of the care box 7. The light of the lighting lamp 3 is emitted from the top to the bottom of the inner liner 72, which can completely cover the clothes hung on the hanger 721. The user can observe and understand the care status of the clothes more clearly.

[0064] In some embodiments, a plurality of lighting lamps 3 are provided in the nursing space 70, and the illumination direction of the lighting lamps 3 is toward the nursing clothes in the nursing space 70. In this way, the brightness of the light in the nursing space can be increased. The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the number and installation position of the lighting lamps 3. The illumination direction of each lighting lamp 3 is toward the nursing clothes so that the user can clearly observe the nursing status of the clothes. It should also be understood that when the control switch is turned on, the control circuit board 2 can control all the lighting lamps 3 to turn on, or the control circuit board 2 can control only some of the lighting lamps 3 to turn on. Those skilled in the art can make settings according to actual conditions.

[0065] The control switch is used to control the on and off of the lighting lamp 3. It can be a mechanical switch, such as a push switch, a toggle switch, etc., which is convenient for user operation; the control switch can also be an electronic switch, such as a touch switch, a sensor-type switch, etc., which can be set inside the door body 1 to avoid affecting the aesthetics of the clothing care machine.

[0066] The control circuit board 2 of this embodiment is electrically connected to the control switch, the lighting lamp 3, and the hot air component 5 respectively. The specific working process is as follows: when the user operates the control switch to turn it on, the control switch sends an opening signal to the control circuit board 2; the control circuit board 2 controls the lighting lamp 3 to turn on according to the opening signal, increases the brightness inside the nursing box 7, and allows the user to observe the clothing care status in the nursing box 7 through the door glass 14 and the light-transmitting plate 121; and controls the hot air component 5 to turn on to heat the gas in the light-transmitting space, and then heat the door glass 14 and the light-transmitting plate 121 to prevent hot steam from condensing on the door glass 14 and the light-transmitting plate 121 to form water mist and block the observation line of sight. The control circuit board 2 of the present invention serves as a control device, which may include a processing chip, a control circuit, a storage chip, etc., and the present invention is not limited here. The control circuit board 2 can be installed on the door body 1, and the control circuit board 2 can also be installed on the nursing box 7, which is not limited here.

[0067] In summary, the clothing care machine provided by the embodiment of the present invention includes a control circuit board 2, a hot air component 5, a care box 7, a door body 1 hinged to the care box 7, and at least one lighting lamp 3, wherein the door body 1 includes a control switch, a door panel 10, and a door glass 14 installed on the door panel 10; a light-transmitting plate 121 is provided on the door panel 10, and a light-transmitting space is formed between the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14, and the light-transmitting space is connected to the air outlet of the hot air component 5; the lighting lamp 3 is installed in the care space 70 formed by the care box 7 and the door body 1; the control circuit board 2 is electrically connected to the lighting lamp 3, the control switch, and the hot air component 5 respectively When the control switch is turned on, the control circuit board 2 controls the lighting 3 to turn on to increase the brightness inside the nursing box 7; it also controls the hot air component 5 to turn on to heat the gas in the light-transmitting space, thereby heating the door glass 14 and the light-transmitting plate 121, preventing the hot steam from condensing on the door glass 14 and the light-transmitting plate 121 to form water mist and obstruct the observation line of sight. In this way, the user can observe the care status of the clothes in the nursing space 70 through the door glass 14, the light-transmitting space, and the light-transmitting plate 121. This is simple and convenient operation, without opening the door, and can understand the care status of the clothes without affecting the care process, which is conducive to improving the care effect and efficiency. In addition, the user can observe the status of the interior of the nursing box 7 through the door glass 14, preventing foreign objects such as children and pets from accidentally entering the nursing box 7 and causing safety accidents.

[0068] Continue to refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 as well as Figure 7 ,in, Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of a partial structure of a door body provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The lighting lamp 3 radiates light within the space between the door glass 14 and the inner panel 12. To allow light from the lighting lamp 3 to pass through the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14, the door body 1 of this embodiment further includes a light guide frame 13 mounted between the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14. The light-transmitting plate 121, light guide frame 13, and door glass 14 form a light-transmitting space. The light guide frame 13 is provided with an installation space 1301 for mounting the hot air assembly 5, and a through hole is provided in the light guide frame 13 to connect the installation space 1301 with the light-transmitting space.

[0069] Specifically, a light guide frame 13 is disposed between the light-transmitting plate 121 and the observation area 141 of the door glass 14 to guide and restrict light. This allows light from the light-transmitting plate 121 to exit the observation area 141 only within the light-transmitting space defined by the light guide frame 13. This ensures that light exits only from the observation area 141, preventing it from irradiating other areas between the inner panel 12 and the door glass 14 and affecting the appearance. The light guide frame 13 can be circular, elliptical, or polygonal, such as a rectangular or hexagonal frame. It can be made of plastic, metal, or the like.

[0070] The light guide frame 13 can be clamped between the inner plate 12 and the door glass 14 , or the light guide frame 13 can be adhered to the door glass 14 by means of a double-sided adhesive tape 143 , and the connection method is simple and reliable.

[0071] The light guide frame 13 is provided with a mounting space 1301 for the hot air assembly 5. This means that the hot air assembly 5 is mounted on the light guide frame 13, eliminating the need for a separate mounting structure for the hot air assembly 5. This simplifies the structure of the clothing care machine. For example, the hot air assembly 5 can be bonded to the light guide frame 13; in another example, the hot air assembly 5 can be fixed to the light guide frame 13 with screws. Furthermore, a through hole is provided in the light guide frame 13, connecting the mounting space with the light-transmitting space. This allows the hot air assembly 5 to heat the light-transmitting space, eliminating the need for a separate ventilation duct and further simplifying the structure of the clothing care machine.

[0072] It is understood that the light guide frame 13 is a frame structure made of an opaque material, and the hot air assembly 5 is installed in the installation space 1301. The user cannot see the hot air assembly 5 through the door glass 14, which would affect the aesthetics of the clothing care machine. In addition, the light guide frame 13 is adhered to the shielding area 144 of the door glass 14 with double-sided tape 143. In other words, the user cannot see the light guide frame 13 through the door glass 14, further improving the aesthetics of the door body 1.

[0073] In this embodiment, a light guide frame 13 is provided between the light-transmitting plate 121 and the observation area 141 of the door glass 14. This not only facilitates guiding the light from the lighting lamp 3, but also limits the size of the light-transmitting space, facilitating the hot air assembly 5 to quickly heat the gas in the light-transmitting space, thereby heating the light-transmitting area 121 and the door glass 14 and preventing the formation of mist on the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14. The light guide frame 13 also provides a mounting structure for the hot air assembly 5, eliminating the need for a separate mounting structure for the hot air assembly 5 and simplifying the structure of the clothing care machine.

[0074] Based on the above embodiments, Figures 4 to 7 ,in, Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the gas flow in the light guide frame provided by an embodiment of the present invention; Figure 5 for Figure 4 A magnified schematic diagram of the middle Q; Figure 6 for Figure 4 The enlarged schematic diagram of M in the figure is shown in Figure 2. Figure 8 This is a structural diagram of a light guide frame provided by an embodiment of the present invention.

[0075] like Figures 4 to 8As shown, the light guide frame 13 includes an inner ring frame 131, an outer ring frame 132 sleeved on the outside of the inner ring frame 131, and a front plate 133 installed on the front sides of the inner ring frame 131 and the outer ring frame 132. An annular cavity 130 is formed between the inner ring frame 131 and the outer ring frame 132; the bottom of the annular cavity 130 forms an installation space 1301, and the side and top of the annular cavity 130 form an air duct 1302; the top of the inner ring frame 131 is provided with an air inlet hole 1311 connecting the light-transmitting space and the air duct 1302, and the bottom of the inner ring frame 131 is provided with an air outlet hole 1312 connecting the light-transmitting space and the installation space 1301.

[0076] Optionally, the light guide frame 13 may be a rectangular frame, with both its inner and outer ring frames 131 and 132 being rectangular, separated by a gap, forming an annular cavity 130 between the inner and outer ring frames 131 and 132. A front panel 133 is also provided in front of the inner and outer ring frames 131 and 132. "Front" herein refers to the side facing the door glass 14. The front panel 133 is bonded to the door glass 14 with double-sided tape 143. Specifically, the front panel 133 is bonded to a shielded area 144 of the door glass 14 with double-sided tape 143 to prevent exposure of the light guide frame 13 and the resulting deterioration of the aesthetics of the door body 1. In this case, the viewing area 141 of the door glass 14 is located within the inner ring frame 131. Optionally, the shape and size of the inner ring frame 131 match those of the viewing area 141, thereby preventing exposure of the light guide frame 13 while providing a maximum viewing area 141 for user convenience. Furthermore, the inner ring frame 131 and the outer ring frame 132 are connected into one piece via the front plate 133 , which is beneficial to improving the structural strength and stability of the light guide frame 13 .

[0077] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 7 The hot air assembly 5 is installed in the installation space 1301. An air inlet hole 1311 is provided at the top of the inner ring frame 131, and an air outlet hole 1312 is provided at the bottom of the inner ring frame 131. This allows the air heated by the hot air assembly 5 to pass through the air duct 1302 and enter the light-transmitting space through the air inlet hole 1311. The temperature of the hot air gradually decreases from top to bottom, and the mass of the cold air is higher, tending to move downward. This allows the cooler air to enter the installation space 1301 through the air outlet hole 1312. The air in the installation space 1301 is heated by the hot air assembly 5 and then discharged into the air duct 1302. This forms a gas circulation, thereby heating the air in the light-transmitting space, and further heating the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14, thereby preventing the formation of water mist.

[0078] It is understood that when the annular cavity 130 is a rectangular cavity, the bottom of the rectangular cavity forms the installation space 1301, and the lateral part and the top of the rectangular cavity in the height direction form the air passage 1302. Figure 5 , there are multiple air inlet holes 1311 set on the top of the inner ring frame 131, and the multiple air inlet holes 1311 are evenly distributed on the top surface of the inner ring frame 131 to improve the uniformity of hot air entering. Figure 6 There are multiple air outlet holes 1312 set at the bottom of the inner ring frame 131, and the multiple air outlet holes 1312 are evenly distributed on the bottom surface of the inner ring frame 131, so that the wind in the light-transmitting space can fully enter the installation space.

[0079] In this embodiment, the inner ring frame 131 and the outer ring frame 132 of the light guide frame 13 define an installation space 1301 and an air duct 1302 to limit the circulation channel of hot air; and an air inlet hole 1311 is provided at the top of the inner ring frame 131 and an air outlet hole 1312 is provided at the bottom, so that the hot air flows from top to bottom, which is beneficial to improving the heating efficiency.

[0080] In some examples, a hot air assembly 5 is provided in the installation space 1301. This is beneficial to simplifying the structure of the clothing care machine, saving costs, and reducing the weight of the door body 1.

[0081] In other examples, two hot air components 5 are provided in the installation space 1301 to improve the heating efficiency. The two hot air components 5 are spaced apart at both ends of the installation space 1301. Two hot air components 5 are spaced apart in the left and right directions of the installation space 1301. Figure 6 , two partitions 136 are set in the installation space 1301, so that the two hot air components 5 can work independently, which is conducive to further improving the heating efficiency. Figure 4 The hot air from the two hot air components 5 flows from the left and right sides of the rectangular cavity to the top and enters the light-transmitting space through the air inlet hole 1311, and then the hot air flows from the upper end to the lower end of the light-transmitting space to achieve heating. The gas enters the installation space 1301 from the air outlet hole 1312 at the bottom of the rectangular cavity, so that the two hot air components 5 heat the light-transmitting space together.

[0082] The following combination Figure 7 The specific structure and function of the hot air assembly 7 are described below. In one specific implementation, the hot air assembly 5 includes a heater 51 and a fan 52. The inlet of the fan 52 is connected to the air outlet hole 1312, the outlet of the fan 52 is connected to the inlet of the heater 51, and the outlet of the heater 51 is connected to the air duct. The heater 51 and the fan 52 are respectively electrically connected to the control circuit board 2.

[0083] like Figure 7As shown, the heater 51 is used to heat the gas, and may include a heating element 511 and a cover body, wherein the heating element 511 is located in the cover body. The heating element 511 is used to generate heat, and the heating element 511 may be a PTC heating component, or a heating resistance wire. The cover body is used to fix the heating element 511 and isolate the heat. The cover body may include a front cover body 512 and a rear cover body 513, and the front cover body 512 and the rear cover body 513 are fixedly connected to form a storage space for accommodating the heating element 511. The front cover body 512 and the rear cover body 513 may be made of high-temperature resistant materials, such as PA+GF, PBT+GF, PET+GF, PPS+GF, etc.

[0084] An outlet grille 514 is provided at the end of the cover away from the fan 52 to uniformly distribute the airflow, allowing the hot air to be evenly discharged into the airflow duct 1302. Furthermore, the outlet grille 514 can isolate impurities, preventing them from entering the airflow duct 1302. The fan 52 can be an existing fan, such as a DC fan, which accelerates gas circulation and improves heating efficiency.

[0085] In this embodiment, the heater 51 and the fan 52 are electrically connected to the control circuit board 2 respectively, that is, the control circuit board 2 can independently control the heater 51 and the fan 52, so that the control circuit board 2 can control the working status of the heater 51 and the fan 52 respectively according to actual conditions, which is conducive to saving energy and improving heating efficiency.

[0086] To precisely control the operating state of the heater 51, it is necessary to detect the gas temperature within the air duct 1302. To this end, in this embodiment, a first temperature sensor 9 is installed within the air duct 1302 and is electrically connected to the control circuit board 2. When the control circuit board 2 detects that the temperature detected by the first temperature sensor 9 is greater than a first preset value, it controls the heater 51 to stop heating.

[0087] Reference Figure 7 , the first temperature sensor 9 can be fixed in the air duct 1302 by screws to detect the gas temperature in the air duct 1302. When the gas temperature in the air duct 1302 exceeds the first preset value, it means that the gas temperature in the air duct 1302 is high and has not been discharged into the light-transmitting space in time. At this time, in order to save energy and reduce user costs, the control circuit board 2 controls the heater 51 to stop heating when receiving the temperature detected by the first temperature sensor 9 is greater than the first preset value. This can also prevent the heater 51 from overheating and being damaged. If the temperature of the light-transmitting space does not reach the preset temperature at this time, the control circuit board 2 can also control the speed of the fan 52 to increase and increase the flow rate of the gas.

[0088] When two hot air assemblies 5 are installed in the installation space, a temperature sensor is installed in the air duct 1302 on the left and right sides respectively to detect the gas temperature in the air duct 1302 on the left and right sides respectively, thereby controlling the heaters 51 of the two hot air assemblies 5 respectively.

[0089] In one possible embodiment, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The clothing care machine of this embodiment also includes a second temperature sensor 8, and the temperature sensing element of the second temperature sensor 8 is attached to the door glass 14; the control circuit board 2 is electrically connected to the second temperature sensor 8. When the control circuit board 2 controls the lighting lamp 3 to turn on and receives the temperature detected by the second temperature sensor 8 is less than the second preset value, the control circuit board 2 controls the hot air component 5 to turn on.

[0090] Specifically, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 Two limiting plates 134 are spaced apart at the top of the annular cavity 130 along the left and right directions, and an installation interval 1303 for installing the second temperature sensor 8 is formed between the two limiting plates 134, which facilitates the installation of the second temperature sensor 8. Figure 5 A sixth connecting hole 135 is provided on the portion of the front plate 133 between the two limiting plates 134. A fifth connecting hole 81 is provided on the mounting base of the second temperature sensor 8. The third screw 82 is threadedly engaged with the fifth connecting hole 81 and the sixth connecting hole 1331, respectively, thereby securing the second temperature sensor 8 to the front plate 133. To ensure that the temperature sensing element of the second temperature sensor 8 is in contact with the door glass 14, a through hole 137 is provided on the portion of the front plate 133 between the two limiting plates 134, with this through hole 137 facing the temperature sensing element.

[0091] In this embodiment, by mounting the second temperature sensor 8 on the light guide frame 13, there is no need for an additional mounting base for the second temperature sensor 8, which helps simplify the structure of the door body 1. Furthermore, this allows the temperature sensing element of the second temperature sensor 8 to be in close contact with the door glass 14, which helps improve the accuracy of the temperature detection of the door glass 14.

[0092] In this embodiment, the second temperature sensor 8 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 2. The second temperature sensor 8 is used to detect the temperature of the door glass 14 and transmit the detected temperature of the door glass 14 to the control circuit board 2, which then compares the current temperature of the door glass 14 with a second preset value. When the control circuit board 2 turns on the lighting 3, and the temperature detected by the second temperature sensor 8 is less than the second preset value, the control circuit board 2 indicates that the temperature within the light-transmitting space is low, and the control circuit board 2 controls the hot air assembly 5 to turn on. At this time, the control circuit board 2 controls the heater 51 and the fan 52 to turn on simultaneously.

[0093] It should be noted here that the second preset value is smaller than the first preset value. For example, the second preset value may be 60°C, and the first preset value may be 80°C.

[0094] When the temperature of the door glass 14 detected by the second temperature sensor 8 is higher than a preset temperature, or when the lighting lamp 3 is off, the control circuit board 2 controls the hot air component 5 to be turned off.

[0095] In this embodiment, a second temperature sensor 8 is provided to detect the temperature of the door glass 14, and the temperature of the door glass 14 is monitored in real time, so that the control circuit board 2 is heated according to the real-time temperature controller of the door glass 14. This is not only beneficial to saving energy, but also can improve the accuracy of temperature control on the door glass 14, improve the clarity of observing the inside of the nursing box, and avoid the low temperature of the door glass 14 causing water mist to affect observation.

[0096] Continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In one possible implementation, the control switch is a vibration sensor 4 , and a vibration sensing head of the vibration sensor 4 is in contact with the door glass 14 .

[0097] Specifically, when the user knocks on the door glass 14, the vibration sensing head of the vibration sensor 4 senses the vibration signal and converts the vibration signal into an electrical signal. The vibration signal is then sent to the control circuit board 2. The processing chip of the control circuit board 2 processes the vibration signal. When it determines that the vibration amount of the vibration signal is greater than or equal to the vibration threshold, the control circuit board 2 controls the lighting 3 to turn on to illuminate the interior of the nursing box. At the same time, the control circuit board 2 controls the hot air component 5 to turn on, so that the user can observe the care status of the clothes inside the nursing space 70 through the door glass 14 and the transparent plate 121. The vibration sensor 4 can be a capacitive vibration sensor, a capacitive vibration sensor, etc. The embodiment of the present invention does not limit the type of vibration sensor 4.

[0098] There are various ways to attach the vibration sensor 4 to the door glass 14. For example, the vibration sensor 4 can be attached to the door glass 14 using double-sided tape, silicone, or the like, so that the vibration sensing head of the vibration sensor 4 is in contact with the door glass 14. Another example is that the vibration sensor 4 can be pressed against the door glass 14 using a spring, so that the vibration sensing head of the vibration sensor 4 is in contact with the door glass 14. The contact between the vibration sensor 4 and the door glass 14 allows the vibration sensor 4 to sensitively sense the user's tapping vibrations, ensuring that it can stably and accurately sense the user's tapping vibrations.

[0099] In this way, the user can turn on the light 3 by knocking on the door glass 14, and control the door glass 14 to be converted into a transparent state. The user can observe the clothing care status inside the care box 7 through the door glass 14. The operation is simple and convenient, and there is no need to worry about the danger of electric shock caused by water on the user's hands. It is safer and more reliable.

[0100] Continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, the door body further includes a mounting bracket 6 , which is bonded to the side of the touch film 1421 away from the door glass 14 , and a control circuit board 2 is mounted on the side of the mounting bracket 6 away from the touch film 1421 .

[0101] The mounting bracket 6 is used to mount the control circuit board 2. Specifically, a second connection hole 61 is provided on the mounting bracket 6, and a first connection hole 21 is provided on the control circuit board 2. The first screw 22 is threadedly connected to the first connection hole 21 and the second connection hole 61, respectively, to mount the control circuit board 2 on the mounting bracket 6. Optionally, the mounting bracket 6 and the control circuit board 2 are connected by multiple first screws 22. For example, four second connection holes 61 are provided on the mounting bracket 6, and four first connection holes 21 are provided on the control circuit board 2, and the four first connection holes 21 are distributed in a rectangular pattern. The four first screws 22 are threadedly connected to the first connection holes 21 and the second connection holes 61, respectively, to further improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the control circuit board 2 and the mounting bracket 6.

[0102] The mounting bracket 6 is bonded to the touch film 1421 , wherein both sides of the touch film 1421 are respectively provided with adhesive, and its two side surfaces are respectively bonded to the door glass 14 and the mounting bracket 6 , that is, the mounting bracket 6 is bonded to the door glass 14 through the touch film 1421 .

[0103] Continue to refer to Figure 3 The mounting bracket 6 is provided with multiple partitions 66. The control circuit board 2 is provided with an LED lamp bead corresponding to each partition 66. The display area 142 is silk-screened with operation buttons corresponding to each partition 66, such as care mode, switch, temperature, time, etc. The user activates the LED lamp bead by touching the touch film 1421, and then controls the operating status of the clothing care machine by touching different operation buttons. Optionally, the mounting bracket 6 is also provided with a digital tube light-transmitting frame 68. The control circuit board 2 is provided with a digital tube corresponding to the digital tube light-transmitting frame 68 for displaying time, temperature, etc.

[0104] In one possible implementation, the display area 142 is silk-screened with a control switch logo, and the control switch is integrated into the touch film 1421. In other words, the control switch for controlling the lighting 3 is integrated into the touch film 1421. The user controls the lighting 3 by operating the touch film 1421, eliminating the need for an additional control switch, thereby simplifying the door structure.

[0105] In another possible implementation, the control switch is provided independently of the touch film 1421 , which helps to simplify the control procedure of the touch film 1421 .

[0106] Optionally, the vibration sensor 4 is installed on the mounting support 6, and there is no need to set up an additional mounting structure for the vibration sensor 4, which is beneficial to simplifying the structure of the door body 1. The vibration sensor 4 is installed on the mounting support 6, and is close to the door glass 14, which is beneficial to sensing the vibration of the door glass 14 and improving the sensitivity of the switch.

[0107] Continue to refer to Figure 5 The mounting support 6 is provided with a mounting hole 62 for accommodating the vibration sensor 4; the clothing care machine of this embodiment also includes a pressing plate 64, which is fixedly connected to the mounting support 6, and an elastic member 65 is provided between the pressing plate 64 and the vibration sensor 4 to press the vibration sensor 4 against the door glass 1.

[0108] The mounting hole 62 on the mounting support 6 is a through hole for accommodating the vibration sensor 4 , and the vibration sensor 4 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 2 via a cable.

[0109] The pressure plate 64 is provided with a third connection hole 641, and the mounting support 6 is provided with a fourth connection hole 63. The second screws 67 are threadedly connected to the third connection hole 641 and the fourth connection hole 63, respectively, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the pressure plate 64 and the mounting support 6. Optionally, to improve the reliability of the pressure plate 4 pressing the elastic member 65 and the vibration sensor 4, a third connection hole 641 is provided at each end of the pressure plate 4, that is, the pressure plate 64 is fixedly connected to the mounting support 6 via two second screws 67.

[0110] The elastic member 65 can be a spring, a rubber column, etc., and is located between the pressure plate 64 and the vibration sensor 4. The elastic member 65 is used to continuously press the vibration sensor 4 against the door glass 1 so that the vibration sensor 4 can sensitively sense the vibration of the door glass 14, thereby controlling the on and off of the lighting lamp 3.

[0111] This embodiment uses the vibration sensor 4 as a control switch to control the on and off of the lighting lamp 3, which has a simple structure and low cost. In addition, the vibration sensor 4 is located on the inner side of the door glass 1 and will not affect the aesthetic appearance of the door body.

[0112] In the present invention, the lighting lamp 3 can be installed in various positions.

[0113] For example, at least one lighting lamp 3 is provided on the inner side of the door panel 10, and the lighting lamp 3 is directed toward the care clothes in the care space 70. Specifically, the lighting lamp 3 can be installed on the inner side of the inner plate 12 of the door panel 10, and the lighting lamp 3 emits light toward the care clothes. This is equivalent to adding light inward from the direction of observation of the user, and without being blocked by clothes, the lighting effect is better, which is conducive to improving the clarity of observation.

[0114] For example, at least one lighting lamp 3 is installed on the inner side of the door panel 10, and at least one lighting lamp 3 is installed on the nursing box 7. All lighting lamps 3 are directed toward the nursing clothes in the nursing space 70. In other words, by installing lighting lamps 3 on the inner side of the door panel 10 and on the nursing box 7, light is emitted from multiple locations within the nursing space 70 toward the nursing clothes, further increasing the brightness of the nursing space 70 and, in turn, the clarity of the nursing clothes observed by the user. Furthermore, the user can selectively activate the lighting lamps 3 on the door panel 10 and the nursing box 7 according to actual needs, increasing user flexibility.

[0115] It is understood that the lighting lamps 3 provided on the inner side of the door panel 10 can be mounted on the inner panel 12, which facilitates installation and avoids light obstruction. The lighting lamps 3 provided on the nursing box 7 can be located on the top, rear, or side of the nursing box 7, etc., and this is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention. In addition, the number of lighting lamps 3 provided on the door panel 10 and the nursing box 7 can be set according to the actual situation such as the size of the nursing space 70 and the brightness of the lighting lamps 3, and this is not limited here.

[0116] In one specific implementation, at least one lighting lamp 3 is provided on the inner side of the door panel 10, irradiating the clothing within the care space 70. Furthermore, a plurality of observation areas 141 are provided at intervals along the height of the door glass 14. This arrangement allows the user to observe the status of clothing at different locations through the observation areas 141 at different positions, improving the user's comprehensive observation of the clothing's care status and enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, by providing the lighting lamp 3 on the door panel 10, the user can clearly observe the clothing's status from different heights, further enhancing the user experience.

[0117] Furthermore, a corresponding lighting fixture 3 is provided for each observation area 141. That is, when multiple observation areas 141 are provided on the door glass 14, multiple lighting fixtures 3 are provided on the door panel 10, with each lighting fixture 3 corresponding to each observation area 141. This arrangement not only improves the brightness within the nursing space 70 and enhances the user's ability to observe the status of the nursing garments, but also enables the user to clearly observe the status of the nursing garments from different viewing positions. Furthermore, the user can selectively turn on the lighting fixture 3 corresponding to a particular observation area 141, which not only improves the clarity of the garments viewed through that observation area 141 but also avoids turning on lighting fixtures 3 in other locations, thereby saving energy and reducing operating costs.

[0118] Exemplarily, an observation area 141 is provided at the upper and lower ends of the door glass 14, and a lighting lamp 3 is provided corresponding to each of the two observation areas 141. This arrangement allows the user to clearly observe the different care states of the clothes through the upper and lower observation areas 141. For example, the relatively static care state of the upper part of the clothes can be observed through the upper observation area 141, and the shaking state of the lower part of the clothes can be observed through the lower observation area 141.

[0119] The working principle of the clothing care machine provided by the embodiment of the present invention is described in detail below:

[0120] When the clothing care machine is in operation, a user taps on door glass 14. Vibration sensor 4 detects a vibration signal and transmits it to control circuit board 2. The processing chip in control circuit board 2 processes the vibration signal. If it determines that the vibration level is greater than or equal to a threshold, control circuit board 2 controls light 3 to turn on, illuminating the interior of care box 7. This allows the user to observe the care status of the clothing inside through observation area 141 of door glass 14. The control circuit board 2 is programmed to turn light 3 off after a preset time, eliminating the need for manual user operation.

[0121] While the control circuit board 2 turns on the lighting 3, it also determines the temperature of the door glass 14 as detected by the second temperature sensor 8. If the temperature of the door glass 14 is lower than a second preset value, the control circuit board 2 controls the hot air assembly 5 to heat the door glass 14, thereby increasing the temperature and preventing condensation from forming mist on the door panel and door glass 14, which would otherwise obstruct vision. When the temperature of the door glass 14 is greater than or equal to the second preset value, the control circuit board 2 sends a control signal to the hot air assembly 5 to turn it off.

[0122] In summary, the clothing care machine provided by the embodiment of the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0123] 1. Use the vibration sensor 4 as a control switch to control the opening and closing of the lighting lamp 3, realize visualization inside the care box 7, and help users observe the status of clothing care; reduce the opening and closing actions of the clothing care machine, reduce energy loss, and improve care effects and efficiency.

[0124] 2. A light-transmitting space is formed between the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 14, and a hot air component 5 is provided to heat the gas in the light-transmitting space to avoid the formation of water mist on the light-transmitting plate 121 and the door glass 5 to affect observation, and a lighting lamp 3 is provided to enhance the light during observation, so that the user can observe the status inside the nursing box 7 more clearly.

[0125] 3. The door structure of the present invention is simple, easy to produce and assemble, safe, reliable and low in cost.
