Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of integrated washer-dryers, and in particular relates to an integrated washer-dryer and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Traditional washing machines only have a washing function, and users can only use them to wash clothes. After washing, the clothes contain a lot of water. Although the washing machine has a spin-drying function, the spin-drying function of the washing machine cannot completely remove the water from the clothes. After the spin-drying, the clothes are still wet and need to be air-dried. Users cannot wear them directly, which affects their use. Although a clothes dryer can quickly dry clothes, placing a washing machine and a clothes dryer at the same time in the user's home takes up a lot of space and is inconvenient.

[0003] To provide convenience for users, all-in-one washer-dryers have emerged. These machines have both washing and drying functions, allowing users to dry their clothes in the machine after washing them. However, after placing clothes in the drum, users must first select whether to wash or dry the clothes on the control panel, and then select the washing or drying program. This is cumbersome and inconvenient.

[0004] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

For example, they may refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; and direct or indirect connections through an intermediary. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0035] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention introduces a control method for a washer-dryer, which obtains the weight and / or humidity of the clothes to be processed; determines the type of the clothes to be processed based on the weight and / or humidity of the clothes to be processed, and the types of the clothes to be processed include clothes to be washed and clothes to be dried; if the type of the clothes to be processed is clothes to be washed, sets the washing program that the washer-dryer needs to execute; if the type of the clothes to be processed is clothes to be dried, sets the drying program that the washer-dryer needs to execute.

[0036] When using a washer-dryer, a user places the laundry to be processed into the drum of the washer-dryer. The washer-dryer then detects the weight and / or humidity of the laundry and determines the type of laundry based on the weight and / or humidity. For example, a user places laundry to be washed into the drum of the washer-dryer, and the washer-dryer detects the weight and / or humidity of the laundry in the drum. Based on the detected weight and / or humidity, the washer-dryer determines that the laundry is laundry to be washed, and then automatically sets the washing program that the washer-dryer needs to execute.

[0037] Alternatively, the user puts the clothes to be dried into the drum of the washer-dryer, and the washer-dryer detects the weight and / or humidity of the clothes in the drum. Based on the detected weight and / or humidity of the clothes, it determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be dried, and then the washer-dryer automatically sets the drying program that the washer-dryer needs to execute.

[0038] The present invention determines the type of clothes to be processed by obtaining the weight and / or humidity of the clothes to be processed, and automatically sets the washing program or drying program to be executed by the washer-dryer. The user does not need to manually select washing or drying clothes, which reduces the number of user operations and is more convenient for users to use.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present invention, the weight and humidity of the clothes to be processed are obtained. If it is determined that the weight of the clothes to be processed is greater than a preset weight threshold and the humidity of the clothes to be processed is greater than a preset humidity threshold, the type of the clothes to be processed is determined to be clothes to be dried; if it is determined that the weight of the clothes to be processed is lower than the preset weight threshold, or the humidity threshold of the clothes to be processed is lower than the preset humidity threshold, the clothes to be processed are determined to be clothes to be washed.

[0040] When using a washer-dryer, a user places the laundry to be processed into the drum of the washer-dryer. The washer-dryer then detects the weight and humidity of the laundry and determines the type of laundry to be processed based on the weight and humidity. For example, a user places laundry to be dried into the drum of the washer-dryer. The washer-dryer then detects the weight and humidity of the laundry in the drum. If the detected weight of the laundry is greater than a preset weight threshold and the detected humidity of the laundry is greater than a preset humidity threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the laundry is to be dried and automatically sets the drying program to be executed.

[0041] Alternatively, the user places the laundry to be washed into the drum of the washer-dryer, which then detects the weight and humidity of the laundry in the drum. If the detected laundry weight is lower than a preset weight threshold and the detected laundry humidity is higher than a preset humidity threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the laundry to be processed is laundry to be washed. If the detected laundry weight is higher than a preset weight threshold and the detected laundry humidity is lower than a preset humidity threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the laundry to be processed is laundry to be washed. If the detected laundry weight is lower than a preset weight threshold and the detected laundry humidity is lower than a preset humidity threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the laundry to be processed is laundry to be washed. After detecting that the laundry to be processed is laundry to be washed, the washer-dryer automatically sets the washing program that the washer-dryer needs to execute.

[0042] Users can freely adjust the preset weight threshold and preset humidity threshold according to actual conditions to enhance the accuracy of the judgment results on the type of clothes to be processed.

[0043] The present invention obtains the weight and humidity of the clothes to be processed, determines the type of the clothes to be processed according to the weight and humidity of the clothes to be processed, and automatically sets the washing program or drying program that the washer-dryer needs to execute. The user does not need to manually select washing or drying clothes, thereby reducing the number of user operations and making it more convenient for users to use.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present invention, the humidity of the clothes to be processed is obtained. If it is determined that the humidity of the clothes to be processed is greater than a preset humidity threshold, the type of the clothes to be processed is determined to be drying clothes; if it is determined that the humidity of the clothes to be processed is lower than the preset humidity threshold, the type of the clothes to be processed is determined to be washing clothes.

[0045] When using a washer-dryer, the user places the laundry to be processed into the drum. The washer-dryer then detects the humidity of the laundry and determines the type of laundry to be processed based on the humidity. For example, a user places laundry to be dried into the drum. The washer-dryer detects the humidity of the laundry inside the drum. If the humidity is greater than a preset threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the laundry is to be dried and automatically sets the drying cycle to be executed.

[0046] Alternatively, the user puts the clothes to be washed into the drum of the washer-dryer, and the washer-dryer detects the humidity of the clothes in the drum. If the detected humidity of the clothes is lower than the preset humidity threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be washed, and the washer-dryer automatically sets the washing program that the washer-dryer needs to execute.

[0047] Users can freely adjust the preset humidity threshold according to actual conditions to enhance the accuracy of the judgment results on the type of clothing to be processed.

[0048] The present invention detects the humidity of the clothes to be processed and determines the type of the clothes to be processed according to the humidity. The washer-dryer automatically sets the washing program or drying program that the washer-dryer needs to execute. The user does not need to manually select washing or drying clothes, which reduces the number of user operations and is more convenient for users.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present invention, the weight of the clothes to be processed is obtained. If it is determined that the weight of the clothes to be processed is greater than a preset weight threshold, the type of the clothes to be processed is determined to be drying clothes; if it is determined that the weight of the clothes to be processed is lower than the preset weight threshold, the type of the clothes to be processed is determined to be washing clothes.

[0050] When using a washer-dryer, the user places the laundry to be processed into the drum of the washer-dryer. The washer-dryer then detects the weight of the laundry and determines the type of laundry to be processed based on the weight. For example, a user places laundry to be dried into the drum of the washer-dryer and the washer-dryer detects the weight of the laundry inside the drum. If the detected weight is greater than a preset weight threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the laundry is to be dried and automatically sets the drying cycle to be executed.

[0051] Alternatively, the user puts the clothes to be washed into the drum of the washer-dryer, and the washer-dryer detects the weight of the clothes in the drum. If the detected weight of the clothes is lower than the preset weight threshold, the washer-dryer determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be washed, and the washer-dryer automatically sets the washing program that the washer-dryer needs to execute.

[0052] Users can freely adjust the preset weight threshold according to actual conditions to enhance the accuracy of the judgment results on the type of clothing to be processed.

[0053] The present invention detects the weight of the clothes to be processed and determines the type of the clothes to be processed according to the weight of the clothes to be processed. The washer-dryer automatically sets the washing program or drying program that the washer-dryer needs to execute. The user does not need to manually select washing or drying clothes, which reduces the number of user operations and is more convenient for users to use.

[0054] In the embodiment of the present invention, if it is determined that the type of clothes to be processed is clothes to be washed, a washing program menu is displayed; if it is determined that the type of clothes to be processed is clothes to be dried, a drying program menu is displayed.

[0055] When using a washer-dryer, a user places the laundry to be processed into the drum of the washer-dryer, which then automatically determines whether the laundry is to be washed or dried. If the washer-dryer determines that the laundry is to be washed, a washing program menu is displayed on the control panel of the washer-dryer, allowing the user to select a washing program. If the washer-dryer determines that the laundry is to be dried, a drying program menu is displayed on the control panel of the washer-dryer, allowing the user to select a drying program.

[0056] The present invention automatically displays a program menu corresponding to the type of clothes to be processed after the washer-dryer determines the type of clothes to be processed, eliminating the need for users to manually switch program menus, reducing user operation steps and facilitating user use.

[0057] In an embodiment of the present invention, if the type of the clothes to be processed is determined to be clothes to be washed, the determination result of the type of clothes to be processed is sent to the user for confirmation. After receiving information from the user confirming that the determination result of the type of clothes to be processed is correct, the washing program is automatically called; after receiving information from the user confirming that the determination result of the type of clothes to be processed is incorrect, the drying program menu is displayed.

[0058] If it is determined that the type of clothes to be processed is clothes to be dried, the determination result of the type of clothes to be processed is sent to the user for confirmation. After receiving the information that the user confirms that the determination result of the type of clothes to be processed is correct, the drying program is automatically called; after receiving the information that the user confirms that the determination result of the type of clothes to be processed is incorrect, the washing program menu is displayed.

[0059] When a user uses a washer-dryer, the user puts the clothes to be processed into the drum of the washer-dryer. The washer-dryer automatically determines whether the clothes to be processed are clothes to be washed or clothes to be dried, and sends the judgment result of the type of clothes to be processed to the user for confirmation.

[0060] For example, if the clothes to be processed that the user puts into the drum are clothes to be washed, the washer-dryer obtains the weight and humidity of the clothes to be processed. If the washer-dryer determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be washed, and the user confirms that the judgment result of the type of clothes to be processed is correct, the washer-dryer automatically calls the washing program and starts washing the clothes; if the washer-dryer determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be dried, and the user confirms that the judgment result of the type of clothes to be processed is wrong, it means that the type of clothes to be processed put into the drum by the user is clothes to be washed, and the washer-dryer displays a washing program menu and allows the user to select a washing program.

[0061] Alternatively, the clothes that the user puts into the drum are clothes to be dried. After the washer-dryer obtains the weight and humidity of the clothes to be processed, if the washer-dryer determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be washed, the user confirms that the judgment result of the type of clothes to be processed is wrong, which means that the clothes to be processed should be clothes to be dried. The washer-dryer first displays the drying program menu and allows the user to select the drying program; if the washer-dryer determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be dried, the user confirms that the judgment result of the type of clothes to be processed is correct, the washer-dryer automatically calls the drying program and starts drying the clothes.

[0062] After determining the type of clothes to be processed, the present invention sends the determination result of the type of clothes to be processed to the user for confirmation, allowing the user to confirm whether the determination result of the washer-dryer is accurate, thereby avoiding the washer-dryer from making an error in determining the type of clothes to be processed.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present invention, after determining the type of the clothes to be processed, the material information of the clothes to be processed is obtained, and a washing program or a drying program that matches the material of the clothes to be processed is called.

[0064] When using a washer-dryer, a user places the laundry into the drum. The machine automatically determines whether the laundry is to be washed or dried. After determining the type of laundry, the machine obtains information about the material of the laundry. For example, if the laundry placed in the drum is made of cotton or linen, the machine will first determine that the laundry is to be washed. It then detects the material of the laundry and automatically activates the cotton and linen wash program, which is suitable for washing cotton and linen laundry.

[0065] Alternatively, the clothes to be processed that the user puts into the drum are polyester clothes that need to be dried. The washer-dryer first determines that the clothes to be processed are clothes to be dried, and then the washer-dryer detects the material of the clothes to be processed, and obtains that the clothes to be processed are polyester clothes. Then the washer-dryer automatically calls the polyester drying program, which is suitable for drying polyester clothes.

[0066] The washer-dryer can also intelligently select the washing or drying program based on the material information of the clothes and combined with multiple parameters such as user usage habits and weather.

[0067] The present invention automatically determines the type of clothes to be processed and detects the material of the clothes to be processed, and automatically calls the washing program or drying program that matches the material of the clothes to be processed. When using the washer-dryer, the user only needs to put the clothes to be processed into the washer-dryer without performing other operations. The washer-dryer automatically selects the washing program or drying program, which simplifies the user's operation and makes it convenient for the user to use.

[0068] An embodiment of the present invention introduces a washer-dryer that adopts the control method described in any of the above embodiments, including a clothing processing unit, a clothing weight acquisition unit, a clothing humidity acquisition unit, and a control panel.
