[0040] First, those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely for explaining the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make adjustments as needed to adapt to specific application scenarios. For example, although the intelligent wardrobe linkage control method of the present invention is described in conjunction with an intelligent washing machine, this is not limiting; other devices with clothing sorting and processing needs can be configured with the intelligent wardrobe linkage control method of the present invention, such as dryers.
[0041] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.
[0042] First, the terms used in this invention will be explained:
[0043] 1) Smart home appliances refer to home appliances formed by introducing microprocessor, sensor technology and network communication technology into home appliances. They have the characteristics of intelligent control, intelligent sensing and intelligent application. The operation of smart home appliances often relies on the application and processing of modern technologies such as the Internet of Things, the Internet and electronic chips. For example, smart home appliances can be connected to electronic devices to enable users to remotely control and manage smart home appliances.
[0044] 2) Terminal devices refer to electronic devices with wireless connectivity. Terminal devices can communicate with the smart home appliances described above by connecting to the internet, or directly via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or other methods. In some embodiments, terminal devices may be mobile devices, computers, or in-vehicle devices built into a hovercraft, or any combination thereof. Mobile devices may include, for example, mobile phones, smart home devices, wearable devices, smart mobile devices, virtual reality devices, or any combination thereof. Wearable devices may include, for example, smartwatches, smart bracelets, pedometers, etc.
[0045] 3) "Multiple" refers to two or more, and other quantifiers are similar. "And / or" describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, A and / or B can represent: A alone, A and B simultaneously, or B alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects have an "or" relationship.
[0046] 4) “Correspondence” can refer to an association or binding relationship. A and B correspond to each other, which means that there is an association or binding relationship between A and B.
[0047] The application scenarios of the embodiments of the present invention are explained below:
[0048] When users use the smart wardrobe, they hang their clothes inside. The smart wardrobe uses intelligent control technology to identify, manage, and process the clothes, such as heating and drying them. Figure 1 This is an application scenario diagram of a smart wardrobe provided in an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, during wardrobe use, such as during seasonal changes, users need to completely change the clothes in the wardrobe and wash and store the removed garments. Simultaneously, due to the large number of clothes in the wardrobe, when washing the removed clothes, factors such as material and fabric need to be considered, and clothes of the same type should be washed separately to avoid damage caused by mixing different types of clothes. In this application scenario, users need to sort and remove the clothes according to their type and quantity in the smart wardrobe, and then select the corresponding washing program through the smart washing machine. Because of the large number and variety of clothes in the wardrobe, the washing machine needs to perform multiple wash cycles to complete the washing of all the clothes. Therefore, when choosing a washing program, users need to comprehensively consider factors such as the type, quantity, and material of the clothes to determine the most suitable and optimal program. This undoubtedly consumes a lot of time for users, and may lead to problems such as increased washing cycles and decreased washing effect due to insufficient consideration and inaccurate selection of washing programs and parameters.
[0049] The technical solution of the present invention and how the technical solution of the present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems are described in detail below with specific embodiments. These specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described again in some embodiments. The embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0050] Figure 2 This is a flowchart illustrating a smart wardrobe linkage control method according to an embodiment of the present invention. The method is applied to a smart wardrobe, which is communicatively connected to a smart washing machine. Figure 2As shown, the intelligent wardrobe linkage control method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0051] Step S101: Obtain target clothing information, which is used to characterize the type of target clothing.
[0052] For example, target clothing refers to clothing hung inside a smart wardrobe that needs to be washed by a smart washing machine. Target clothing information is information used to characterize different aspects of the target clothing, such as its shape, color, material, and style. Based on these characteristics, the target clothing is classified, thereby representing its type. In other words, target clothing information is descriptive information about the type of target clothing, enabling differentiation and identification between different types of target clothing. For example, target clothing can be classified based on color information, or based on material information, and so on. Furthermore, target clothing of the same type can be washed using the same method; specifically, for example, target clothing of the same type can be washed using the same washing machine program.
[0053] Furthermore, for example, there are multiple ways to obtain target clothing information. For instance, the target clothing information can be obtained by capturing images through an image acquisition unit set in the smart wardrobe; or by obtaining target clothing information through radio frequency identification (RFID) tags set at different hanging positions in the smart wardrobe or RFID tags on the clothing; or by obtaining clothing data sent by a terminal device communicating with the smart wardrobe. No specific restrictions are imposed here, and the settings can be made according to specific needs.
[0054] Step S102: Based on the target garment information, generate washing program information. The washing program information is used to characterize the steps for washing the target garment.
[0055] For example, the washing program information can be information representing the washing programs of the washing machine, corresponding to multiple washing programs, such as different clothing washing programs that can be executed on a smart washing machine, such as sweater wash, quick wash, heavy-duty wash, and dryer. It should be noted that the washing program information generated by the smart wardrobe must correspond to a washing program that the smart washing machine communicating with it can run. Therefore, the smart wardrobe needs to pre-determine all executable washing programs of the smart washing machine. For example, the smart wardrobe can obtain the identification information of the smart washing machine to determine its model, and then retrieve all executable washing programs for that model of smart washing machine from the storage medium pre-stored within the smart wardrobe or from a cloud server. This process will not be elaborated upon here.
[0056] For example, the clothing type represented by the target clothing information corresponds to a specific laundry program. Based on a preset matching algorithm or matching model, the mapping relationship between clothing type and laundry program can be determined. The target clothing information may include multiple clothing type information entries, each corresponding to a specific clothing type and a corresponding laundry program.
[0057] Furthermore, the laundry program information represents the steps involved in washing the target garments. For example, the laundry program information includes identifiers for multiple laundry programs, as well as the execution order and parameters of each program. Based on the laundry program information, multiple sequentially executed laundry programs can be determined, where each program corresponds to one or more pieces of the same type of target garment.
[0058] Step S103: Send the washing program information to the smart washing machine so that the smart washing machine can wash the target clothes.
[0059] Furthermore, there are several ways to send washing program information to the smart washing machine. In one possible implementation, the smart washing machine and the smart wardrobe are on the same local area network (LAN). The smart wardrobe forwards the washing program information to the smart washing machine through terminal devices or network devices within this LAN. Alternatively, the smart washing machine and the smart wardrobe are each connected to a cloud server. The smart wardrobe sends the washing program information to the cloud server, which then forwards it to the smart washing machine. In another possible implementation, the smart washing machine and the smart wardrobe communicate and transmit data directly via short-range transmission technologies such as Bluetooth, infrared, or wired connections, enabling the smart wardrobe to send washing program information to the smart washing machine. Other methods for sending washing program information to the smart washing machine will not be elaborated upon here.
[0060] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the washing of target clothing based on laundry program information, provided by an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 3 As shown, after receiving the washing program information, the smart washing machine executes each washing program sequentially based on the multiple washing programs represented by the washing program information, as well as the execution sequence and parameters between each washing program. During the execution of each washing program, one or more target garments belonging to the same category can be washed. Once all washing programs corresponding to the washing program information have been executed, all target garments are cleaned and sorted. It should be noted that, depending on the level of automation of the smart washing machine, the loading and unloading of target garments before and after each washing program can be achieved through other automated devices, or the user can manually load and unload the garments. The implementation method can be determined according to specific needs.
[0061] In this embodiment, target clothing information is acquired, which characterizes the type of target clothing. Based on this information, washing program information is generated, which characterizes the steps involved in washing the target clothing. The washing program information is then sent to the smart washing machine, enabling it to wash the target clothing. Since the smart wardrobe automatically generates washing program information matching the target clothing type after determining its type based on the target clothing information, and directly sends this information to the smart washing machine connected to it, the smart washing machine can directly wash this type of clothing without requiring manual clothing sorting and program settings. This improves the efficiency of clothing sorting and washing, as well as the accuracy of washing program selection, thereby enhancing the washing effect.
[0062] Figure 4 A flowchart of a smart wardrobe linkage control method provided in another embodiment of the present invention is shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the intelligent wardrobe linkage control method provided in this embodiment is... Figure 2 Based on the smart wardrobe linkage control method provided in the illustrated embodiment, step S102 is further refined, and a step of classifying clothes by the smart wardrobe is added. Therefore, the smart wardrobe linkage control method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0063] Step S201: Obtain target clothing information, which includes clothing material information and / or clothing style information.
[0064] Step S202: Determine the clothing characteristics of the target clothing based on the clothing material information and / or clothing style information.
[0065] For example, the target clothing information includes clothing material information and / or clothing style information. The clothing material information and / or clothing style information can be obtained by image acquisition through an image acquisition unit set in the smart wardrobe, or by RFID tags set in the smart wardrobe or on the clothing, or by instructions and data sent by the user through a terminal device. This implementation process has been described in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.
[0066] Step S203: Based on the characteristics of each target garment, determine the washing sequence information of each target garment, wherein the washing sequence information represents the order in which each target garment is washed.
[0067] Specifically, when there are multiple types of clothing in the target garment, a certain order needs to be followed to achieve better cleaning results. More specifically, colored garments, such as red clothes, may experience color bleeding during a smart washing machine wash. Washing light-colored garments, such as white clothes, after washing red clothes may cause staining of the light-colored garments. Similarly, wool fabrics may shed after washing, which can affect subsequent washes and reduce cleaning effectiveness. Furthermore, washing outerwear before underwear can lead to hygiene issues for underwear due to its close contact with the skin.
[0068] Therefore, based on the above reasons, the washing order is determined according to the characteristics of the target garments, such as color, material, and style, so that garments washed earlier in the washing order do not affect garments washed later in the washing order. For example, a method for determining the washing order information of each target garment includes: placing underwear worn close to the skin first, then placing colored garments that may fade later, and placing dark-colored garments made of materials that easily shed lint last. Of course, the above method is only exemplary; the method for determining the washing order information of each target garment can be implemented through a preset timing model. This timing model can be implemented based on user settings, downloaded from the cloud, or trained through self-learning, etc., which will not be elaborated further here.
[0069] In this embodiment, by determining the washing sequence information of each target garment and determining the washing program information based on the sequence information, the intelligent washing machine can execute the washing program in a certain order during the washing operation of multiple types of target garments, thereby preventing the problem of garment contamination caused by multiple washing operations and improving the garment washing effect.
[0070] Step S204: Generate washing program information based on washing sequence information.
[0071] Optionally, the washing program information indicates multiple washing sub-programs, which control the smart washing machine to wash a portion of the target garments. The target garment information includes the weight information of each target garment, such as... Figure 5 As shown, step S204 includes two specific implementation steps: S2041 and S2042.
[0072] Step S2041: Obtain the capacity information of the smart washing machine. The capacity information is used to characterize the maximum load capacity of the smart washing machine.
[0073] Specifically, the maximum load capacity is a general parameter of a washing machine, representing the weight of dry clothes the machine can handle, such as 8 kg or 10 kg. A smart wardrobe can obtain the capacity information of a smart washing machine in various ways, such as by acquiring the washing machine's identification information to determine its model, and then obtaining the corresponding capacity information from a cloud server or locally. This process will not be elaborated upon here.
[0074] Step S2042: Determine the clothing identifier set based on the capacity information and the weight information corresponding to each target clothing item; the clothing identifier set includes multiple target clothing identifiers, and the difference between the sum of the dry weights of the target clothing items corresponding to each target clothing identifier in the clothing identifier set and the maximum clothing carrying capacity is less than the vacancy threshold.
[0075] The target clothing information includes the weight information of each target garment. For example, this weight information can be obtained by a sensor unit installed in the smart wardrobe. More specifically, for example, a pressure sensor is installed on the clothes rack in the smart wardrobe, and the weight information of the clothes hanging on the rack is obtained through this pressure sensor.
[0076] Furthermore, since washing machines have a limited maximum load capacity, when there are too many items of a certain type, the smart washing machine needs to wash them multiple times. The set of target garment identifiers corresponding to the target garments in each wash is called the garment identifier set. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a process for determining a clothing identifier set based on capacity information and the weight information of the target clothing, as provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 6 As shown, for example, the number of target garments is 20, and the total dry weight of the 20 target garments is 15.5 kg. The maximum garment capacity of the smart washing machine is 8 kg. In this case, the smart wardrobe accumulates and adjusts the weight information of each target garment sequentially until the difference between the total dry weight of a group of target garments and the maximum garment capacity is less than 0.3 kg. 0.3 kg is the preset empty threshold. Then, the same process is performed on the remaining garments to determine another group of target garments, ensuring that the total dry weight of the other group of target garments is also less than the empty threshold, until all target garments are grouped. Each group of target garments corresponds to a garment identifier set, which includes multiple target garment identifiers.
[0077] For example, such as Figure 6As shown, based on the above process, two clothing identifier sets were determined, namely clothing identifier set A and clothing identifier set B. Clothing identifier set A includes 12 target clothing identifiers, and the total dry weight of the clothing corresponding to each target clothing identifier is 7.8 kg. Clothing identifier set B includes 8 target clothing identifiers, and the total dry weight of the clothing corresponding to each target clothing identifier is 7.7 kg. The difference between the total dry weight of the clothing corresponding to each target clothing identifier in clothing identifier set A and the maximum clothing load capacity, as well as the difference between the total dry weight of the clothing corresponding to each target clothing identifier in clothing identifier set B and the maximum clothing load capacity, are both less than the vacancy threshold of 0.3 kg.
[0078] Step S2043: Generate a laundry subroutine based on the clothing identifier set, and generate laundry program information based on multiple laundry subroutines.
[0079] The laundry program information includes multiple laundry sub-program information, which is used to characterize the steps for washing target garments with the same garment characteristics.
[0080] Furthermore, a washing subroutine corresponding to the clothing identifier set is generated. This washing subroutine is used to wash the target clothing corresponding to the clothing identifier set, thereby maximizing the use of the washing machine's washing capacity, avoiding the waste of washing capacity caused by insufficient clothing in the smart washing machine, which would lead to increased washing time, and improving washing efficiency.
[0081] Step S205: Based on the washing sequence information, the washing subroutine information is sent to the smart washing machine in sequence so that the smart washing machine can wash target clothes with the same clothing characteristics in sequence.
[0082] For example, after determining the washing sequence information, the washing sub-program information is sent to the smart washing machine sequentially based on the completion status of the washing of the target clothes. Compared to sending the washing program information containing all washing sub-program information to the smart washing machine at once, the steps in this embodiment can realize batch processing and intermittent processing of clothes. For example, after completing a washing sub-program, if the user feels that the washing effect is not good and needs to continue washing, or to add a clothes drying and aromatherapy treatment environment, the user can operate the smart washing machine to continue washing, drying, aromatherapy, etc., after the washing sub-program is completed. Then, the operation can be performed on the smart wardrobe side, and the smart wardrobe will send the next washing sub-program information to the smart washing machine without affecting the execution of subsequent washing sub-programs. This improves the flexibility and freedom of use and enhances the washing effect of clothes.
[0083] Optionally, the smart wardrobe includes a clothing display unit, and after step S203, it further includes:
[0084] Step S206: Based on the clothing identifier set, control the clothing display unit to display the target clothing corresponding to the target clothing identifier.
[0085] For example, the clothing display unit is a functional unit for displaying the target clothing corresponding to the target clothing label. More specifically, the clothing display unit may include a mechanical drive structure that can move the target clothing corresponding to the target clothing label to a preset position in the smart wardrobe, so that the user can identify and conveniently take it out, thereby achieving the purpose of sorting and sending out clothing. This eliminates the need for the user to manually sort and filter clothing. According to the instructions of the clothing display unit, the user can directly take out the target clothing of the same type that needs to be sent to the smart washing machine for washing.
[0086] Optionally, before step S201, the method further includes:
[0087] Step S200: Receive the user's linked washing instruction, which is used to identify the target garment; based on the linked washing instruction, display the washing program information corresponding to the target garment.
[0088] Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a smart wardrobe linkage control device provided in one embodiment of the present invention. It is applied to a smart wardrobe, which is communicatively connected to a smart washing machine. Figure 7 As shown, the intelligent wardrobe linkage control device 3 provided in this embodiment includes:
[0089] The acquisition module 31 is used to acquire target clothing information, which is used to characterize the type of target clothing.
[0090] The generation module 32 is used to generate washing program information based on the target clothing information. The washing program information is used to characterize the steps for processing the target clothing.
[0091] The transceiver module 33 is used to send washing program information to the smart washing machine so that the smart washing machine can process the target clothes.
[0092] In one possible implementation, the target garment information includes garment material information and / or garment style information; the generation module 32 is specifically used to: determine the garment characteristics of the target garment based on the garment material information and / or garment style information; determine the washing sequence information of each target garment based on the garment characteristics of each target garment, wherein the washing sequence information represents the order in which each target garment is washed; and generate washing program information based on the washing sequence information.
[0093] In one possible implementation, the washing program information includes multiple washing sub-program information.
