[0033] Based on the structure of the above intelligent drying rack, combined with Figure 3 As shown in Figure 3 , an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling an intelligent drying rack, including:

[0034] S01, the intelligent drying rack determines to start an outdoor drying mode or an indoor drying mode according to the light intensity of the area where the intelligent drying rack is located.

[0035] S02, when the intelligent drying rack starts the outdoor drying mode, it controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the ambient humidity.

[0036] S03, when the intelligent drying rack starts the indoor drying mode, it controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the ambient humidity and the ambient wind speed.

[0037] By using the method for controlling an intelligent drying rack provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, the intelligent drying rack can determine the current drying scene according to the light intensity in the area where the intelligent drying rack is located. For example, an indoor drying environment or an outdoor drying environment. And determine to start the outdoor drying mode or the indoor drying mode according to the drying scene. When the drying scene is an outdoor drying scene, the intelligent drying rack starts the outdoor drying mode and controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the environmental humidity. In this way, when in the outdoor drying scene, it is possible to determine whether it will rain outdoors according to the environmental humidity and control the opening and closing of the opening and closing device, which can prevent the clothes from being wet by rain. When the drying scene is an indoor drying scene, the intelligent drying rack starts the indoor drying mode and controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the environmental humidity and the environmental wind speed. In this way, it is possible to determine whether there is rain through the environmental humidity, and determine whether the raindrops will fall into the room according to the wind speed, and control the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to whether the raindrops will fall into the room, thus avoiding the situation that the clothes are wet by rain indoors. The intelligent drying rack starts the corresponding drying mode for drying according to different drying scenes, improving the drying effect of the intelligent drying rack and enhancing the user experience.

[0038] Combined with Figure 4 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for controlling an intelligent drying rack, including:

[0039] S41, the intelligent drying rack determines the current weather type according to the current weather information.

[0040] S42, the intelligent drying rack determines the light threshold value corresponding to the weather type according to the weather type.

[0041] S43, the intelligent drying rack determines to start the outdoor drying mode or the indoor drying mode according to the light intensity and the light threshold value.

[0042] S02, when the intelligent drying rack starts the outdoor drying mode, it controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the environmental humidity.

[0043] S03, when the intelligent drying rack starts the indoor drying mode, it controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the environmental humidity and the environmental wind speed.

[0044] By using the method for controlling an intelligent drying rack provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the intelligent drying rack can determine the current weather type according to the current weather information. For example, cloudy, sunny, rainy, etc. For different weather types, the light intensity indoors and outdoors is different. Therefore, after determining the current weather type, the intelligent drying rack determines the light threshold corresponding to the weather type. The light threshold can represent the critical light intensity between the outdoors and indoors under the current weather type. According to the light intensity and the light threshold, the intelligent drying rack can determine the drying scenario where the intelligent drying rack is currently located. For example, an indoor drying scenario or an outdoor drying scenario. The intelligent drying rack determines to activate the outdoor drying mode or the indoor drying mode according to the drying scenario. In this way, the intelligent drying rack determines the light threshold according to the weather type, improving the accuracy of the judgment of the drying scenario. The intelligent drying rack can accurately activate the corresponding drying mode. The drying effect of the intelligent drying rack is improved, and the user experience is enhanced.

[0045] Optionally, the intelligent drying rack determines the light threshold corresponding to the weather type according to the weather type, including: the intelligent drying rack determines the light intensity corresponding to the weather type according to the first relationship; the intelligent drying rack determines the light intensity corresponding to the weather type as the light threshold.

[0046] In this way, after determining the current weather type, the intelligent drying rack determines the light threshold corresponding to the weather type according to the first relationship. The light threshold can represent the critical light intensity between the outdoors and indoors under the current weather type. The intelligent drying rack determines the drying scenario according to the light threshold, improving the accuracy of the judgment of the drying scenario, and enabling the intelligent drying rack to accurately activate the corresponding drying mode. The drying effect of the intelligent drying rack is improved, and the user experience is enhanced.

[0047] Optionally, the intelligent drying rack determines to activate the outdoor drying mode or the indoor drying mode according to the light intensity and the light threshold, including: the intelligent drying rack detects the light intensity of the area where the intelligent drying rack is located; the intelligent drying rack activates the outdoor drying mode when the light intensity is greater than the light threshold; the intelligent drying rack activates the indoor drying mode when the light intensity is less than or equal to the light threshold.

[0048] In this way, the light threshold can represent the critical light intensity between the outdoors and indoors under the current weather type. The intelligent drying rack detects the light intensity of the area where it is located. When the light intensity is greater than the light threshold, it indicates that it is in an outdoor environment at this time, so the intelligent drying rack activates the outdoor drying mode. When the light intensity is less than or equal to the light threshold, it indicates that it is in an indoor environment at this time, and the indoor drying mode is activated. The intelligent drying rack can accurately activate the corresponding drying mode through the light threshold and the light intensity in the area where it is located. The drying effect of the intelligent drying rack is improved, and the user experience is enhanced.

[0049] Combined Figure 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling an intelligent drying rack, including:

[0050] S01. The intelligent drying rack determines to start an outdoor drying mode or an indoor drying mode according to the light intensity of the area where the intelligent drying rack is located.

[0051] S51. When the intelligent drying rack starts the outdoor drying mode and the environmental humidity is greater than the first humidity threshold for a first duration, the intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing device to close to form a sealed space.

[0052] S03. When the intelligent drying rack starts the indoor drying mode, the intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the environmental humidity and the environmental wind speed.

[0053] By using the method for controlling an intelligent drying rack provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the intelligent drying rack is outdoors, when the environmental humidity is greater than the first humidity threshold for a first duration, it indicates that it is going to rain outdoors at this time. At this time, the intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing device to close to form a sealed space, which can prevent the clothes from being wet by the rain. In this way, in the outdoor drying scenario, when the user is not present, the intelligent drying rack can automatically control the opening and closing device to close to block raindrops before it rains, improving the intelligence of the drying rack and enhancing the user experience.

[0054] Combined Figure 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a method for controlling an intelligent drying rack, including:

[0055] S01. The intelligent drying rack determines to start an outdoor drying mode or an indoor drying mode according to the light intensity of the area where the intelligent drying rack is located.

[0056] S02. When the intelligent drying rack starts the outdoor drying mode, the intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the environmental humidity.

[0057] S61. When the intelligent drying rack starts the indoor drying mode and the environmental humidity is greater than the second humidity threshold for a second duration, the intelligent drying rack detects the environmental wind speed.

[0058] S62. When the environmental wind speed is greater than the wind speed threshold, the intelligent drying rack detects the opening and closing information of the window associated with the intelligent drying rack.

[0059] S63. The intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the opening and closing information of the window.

[0060] Using the method for controlling an intelligent drying rack provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure, since the intelligent drying rack is indoors, when the environmental humidity is greater than the second humidity threshold for a second duration, it indicates that it is going to rain outdoors at this time. At this time, the intelligent drying rack detects the environmental wind speed to determine whether the raindrops outdoors can be blown into the room by the wind and wet the clothes. When the environmental wind speed is greater than the wind speed threshold, it means that the raindrops outdoors can be blown into the room by the wind and wet the clothes. The intelligent drying rack detects the opening and closing information of the window because raindrops cannot fall into the room from a closed window. The intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the opening and closing information of the window. In this way, the intelligent drying rack can control the opening and closing device to perform an unfolding operation corresponding to the opening and closing of the window according to the opening and closing information of the window. Each time, only the corresponding part of the opening and closing device needs to be opened to avoid the clothes from being wet by the rain. Since the opening and closing device is not fully enclosed, the clothes can still contact the outside world, avoiding the appearance of peculiar smell in a sealed space. In this way, in the indoor clothes drying scenario, in the case where the user is not present, the intelligent drying rack can automatically control the opening and closing device to adaptively close to block raindrops according to the opening and closing condition of the window before it rains, improving the intelligence of the drying rack and enhancing the user experience.

[0061] Optionally, the intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing of the opening and closing device according to the opening and closing information of the window, including: the intelligent drying rack determines the position of the window in the open state according to the opening and closing information of the window; the intelligent drying rack controls the opening and closing device to open the shutter corresponding to the position to block the raindrops blown into the room from the open window at the position.

[0062] In this way, the intelligent drying rack determines the position of the window in the open state according to the opening and closing information of the window, and controls the opening and closing device to open the shutter corresponding to the position to block the raindrops blown into the room from the open window at the position. Each time, only the corresponding part of the opening and closing device needs to be opened to avoid the clothes from being wet by the rain, greatly reducing the energy consumption. For example, when the window in the open state is in front of the intelligent drying rack, control the front shutter to open. When the window in the open state is on the left side of the intelligent drying rack, control the left shutter to open. When the window in the open state is on the right side of the intelligent drying rack, control the right shutter to open. In addition, since the opening and closing device does not need to be fully enclosed, the clothes can still contact the outside world and receive sufficient sunlight, avoiding the appearance of peculiar smell in a sealed space. In this way, in the indoor clothes drying scenario, in the case where the user is not present, the intelligent drying rack can automatically control the opening and closing device to adaptively close to block raindrops according to the opening and closing condition of the window before it rains, improving the intelligence of the drying rack and enhancing the user experience.

[0063] Combined with Figure 7 As shown, the embodiments of the present disclosure provide a method for controlling an intelligent drying rack, including:

[0064] S01. The intelligent drying rack determines whether to activate the outdoor drying mode or the indoor drying mode based on the light intensity in the area where the intelligent drying rack is located.

[0065] S02. When the intelligent drying rack activates the outdoor drying mode, it controls the opening and closing device to open or close according to the environmental humidity.

[0066] S03. When the intelligent drying rack activates the indoor drying mode, it controls the opening and closing device to open or close according to the environmental humidity and the environmental wind speed.

[0067] S71. The intelligent drying rack pushes the activation information of the drying mode and the opening and closing information of the opening and closing device.

[0068] S72. When the intelligent drying rack receives a first control instruction carrying the activation of the indoor drying mode or the outdoor drying mode, it activates the mode according to the first control instruction.

[0069] S73. When the intelligent drying rack receives a second control instruction carrying the opening or closing of the opening and closing device, it operates the opening and closing device according to the second control instruction.

[0070] By using the method for controlling an intelligent drying rack provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the intelligent drying rack can push the activation information of the drying mode and the opening and closing information of the opening and closing device to the user through devices such as a mobile terminal associated with the intelligent drying rack. When the user selects to activate the indoor drying mode or the outdoor drying mode, the intelligent drying rack receives the first control instruction to control the activation of the drying mode selected by the user. When the user selects to open or close the opening and closing device, the intelligent drying rack receives the second control instruction to control the opening and closing device to operate in the state selected by the user. In this way, considering the user's selection as a priority can avoid the situation where the clothes are wet or cannot receive sufficient sunlight due to inaccurate judgment, enhance the drying effect, and improve the user experience.
