[0035] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0036] The disclosure below provides many different embodiments or examples for implementing different configurations of the present invention. To simplify the disclosure of the present invention, the components and configurations of specific examples are described below. Of course, these are merely examples and are not intended to limit the present invention. In addition, the present invention may repeat reference numerals and / or letters in different examples. Such repetition is for the purpose of simplicity and clarity and does not in itself indicate the relationship between the various embodiments and / or configurations discussed.

[0037] The present application provides a clothing care method, which is applied to a washing machine and is used to remove wrinkles from clothing. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0038] Step 101: When the washing machine enters the dehumidification stage in the care and drying stage, a first angle of the baffle is determined according to a preset clothing material.

[0039] Among them, the care and drying stage is located after the steam ironing stage. The care and drying stage is used to remove wrinkles from clothes. The angle of the baffle is related to the wind speed and air volume at the air outlet.

[0040] The laundry process is as follows: wet clothes drying stage - steam ironing stage - drying and care stage. The wet clothes drying stage is considered the drying process, while the steam ironing stage and the drying and care stage are considered the care process. Generally speaking, multiple pieces of clothing can be washed during the drying process, while only one piece of clothing can be washed during the care process.

[0041] The wet clothes drying stage refers to the drying of clothes in the inner drum after washing. The clothes after drying usually have larger wrinkles and require subsequent wrinkle removal.

[0042] During the steam ironing phase, the water in the steam water box is heated, generating steam that enters the drum. The steam penetrates the clothes, removing odors and wrinkles. The steam also removes bacteria, dust, mites, and bacteria. During this phase, the steam time and air volume of the air outlet vary depending on the type of clothing.

[0043] The drying process is divided into two stages: dehumidification and wrinkle removal. During the dehumidification stage, a fan and heat source are used to create high-temperature, low-humidity air, which is blown into the inner drum, raising the temperature of the clothes and evaporating moisture from them. This evaporated moisture is then expelled from the machine. During the wrinkle removal stage, the fan's continuous airflow causes the clothes to be tossed around by the lifting ribs, which, in conjunction with the drying temperature, smooth out wrinkles and restore them to a flat state.

[0044] In an embodiment of the present application, the washing machine is provided with an adjustable baffle, the angle of which is correlated with the wind speed and volume at the air outlet. Preferably, the baffle is provided between the air inlet duct and the fan. This allows the baffle to be adjusted to adjust not only the air volume but also the air speed at the air outlet, while maintaining a constant air volume from the fan.

[0045] Figure 2 The diagram is a schematic diagram of the air duct structure. It can be seen that the air enters from the air inlet 1, is heated by the heater 7, enters the air inlet duct 2 and the fan 3, and is blown into the inner cylinder from the air outlet 4. In the embodiment of the present application, an angle-adjustable baffle 5 is provided between the air inlet duct 2 and the fan 3. One end of the baffle 5 is connected to the rotating shaft 6. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the baffle position, as shown in Figure 3 As shown, the rotating shaft 6 is arranged on the inner walls on both sides between the air inlet duct 2 and the fan 3, and the baffle is used to control different air volumes and wind speeds at the air outlet under different rotation angles.

[0046] Figure 4 Schematic diagrams of baffles at various angles show that the baffles can rotate between vertical and horizontal directions. When the baffle is in the horizontal direction, it allows the maximum amount of air to pass through. When the baffle is in the vertical direction, it blocks all air from passing through. In this embodiment of the application, the vertical baffle angle is set to 0°. As the baffle angle increases, the air volume at the air outlet also increases. When the fan blows out the same amount of air, the wind speed at the air outlet decreases. Of course, other directions can also be set to 0°.

[0047] Figure 5 This is an enlarged schematic diagram of the baffle and the rotating shaft.

[0048] Step 102: Dehumidify the clothes according to the air outlet corresponding to the first angle.

[0049] After determining the first angle, the washing machine determines the air volume corresponding to the first angle and dehumidifies the clothes. In this case, the dehumidification is performed on the clothes that have been wetted by the steam. The time and air volume required for dehumidification vary depending on the material of the clothes.

[0050] Step 103: After detecting that the humidity of the clothes reaches the first humidity threshold, enter the wrinkle removal stage in the care and drying stage.

[0051] During the wrinkle removal stage, the clothes are in a scattered state in the inner drum.

[0052] When the washing machine detects that the humidity of the clothes has reached a first humidity threshold, the dehumidification phase of the care and drying stage has concluded, and the dewrinkle phase of the care and drying stage can begin. During the dewrinkle phase, the clothes are lifted up by lifting ribs in the inner drum and thrown in a tossing motion. Because the tossing motion in the prior art uses only a fixed air volume, the clothes are easily tangled and wrinkled during the tossing motion, resulting in poor dewrinkle removal.

[0053] Step 104: In the wrinkle removal stage, the angle of the baffle is adjusted according to the current throwing state of the clothes, so that the throwing state of the clothes reaches the preset throwing state.

[0054] During the wrinkle removal stage, the washing machine adjusts the angle of the baffle according to the current throwing state of the clothes, thereby adjusting the air volume and speed of the air outlet. This can adjust the throwing height and throwing speed of the clothes, so that the throwing state of the clothes reaches the preset throwing state. The preset throwing state means that the clothes can be stretched as much as possible to reduce wrinkles on the clothes.

[0055] Throwing is to allow the clothes to be driven by the lifting ribs from the bottom of the drum to the range of 120° to 180°. Generally, clothes will not roll together in the range of 0° to 90°, but clothes are easy to roll together in the range of 90° to 180°. This application adjusts the angle of the baffle to form a hollow throwing state for the clothes in the center of the inner drum, ensuring that the clothes can be stretched as much as possible, which is conducive to eliminating wrinkles and reducing the drying time.

[0056] In this application, by adjusting the baffle angle, different air volumes and wind speeds can be formed at the air outlet. The baffle angle is adjusted in real time according to the current throwing state of the clothes, thereby adjusting the air volume and wind speed at the air outlet, realizing the change of the throwing state of the clothes, making it reach the preset throwing state, reducing clothing wrinkles, and improving the wrinkle removal effect of clothes.

[0057] As an optional embodiment, after entering the wrinkle removal stage in the care and drying stage, the method also includes: in the wrinkle removal stage, adjusting the angle of the baffle according to the material of the clothes, the weight of the clothes, the current humidity of the clothes and the current throwing state of the clothes, wherein the weight of the clothes is obtained when the washing machine enters the dehumidification stage.

[0058] During the wrinkle removal phase, the baffle angle can be adjusted based not only on the current spreading state, but also on the clothing material, weight, and current humidity. These factors all affect the spreading trajectory. Therefore, this application comprehensively considers these factors, improving the accuracy of baffle angle adjustment and ultimately creating a more optimal spreading trajectory and enhancing the wrinkle removal effect.

[0059] Preferably, the present application allows adjustment not only of the baffle angle but also of the fan's on-off ratio. The fan's on-off ratio is adjusted based on the same criteria as the baffle angle, namely, the clothing material, clothing weight, current clothing humidity, and current dispensing state. Adjusting the baffle angle and fan's on-off ratio in the present application can achieve a more optimal dispensing trajectory, further reducing clothing wrinkles.

[0060] As an optional embodiment, the dehumidification stage in the care and drying stage of the washing machine includes: when the washing machine is in the steam ironing stage, determining the second angle of the baffle according to the material of the clothes, wherein the air outlet corresponding to the second angle is used to deliver the corresponding volume of steam into the inner drum; after detecting that the humidity of the clothes reaches the second humidity threshold, entering the dehumidification stage in the care and drying stage, wherein the second humidity threshold is greater than the first humidity threshold.

[0061] When the washing machine is in the steam ironing stage, the second angle of the baffle is also determined according to the material of the clothes. Different clothing materials have different water absorption rates. For example, wool, cotton and other materials absorb more water, while silk, chemical fiber and other materials absorb less water. Therefore, different air volumes are required for blowing. Different air volumes will bring different volumes of steam.

[0062] When the clothes absorb water and reach the second humidity threshold, they enter the dehumidification stage in the care and drying stage. Since the second humidity threshold is the humidity threshold after the clothes absorb steam, and the first humidity threshold is the humidity threshold after the clothes absorb steam and are dehumidified, the second humidity threshold is greater than the first humidity threshold.

[0063] Table 1 shows the baffle angles at each stage of the nursing process.

[0064]

[0065] Table 1

[0066] Before the steam ironing phase begins, the user selects the material of the garment to be treated, thus entering the appropriate care program mode for that material. As shown in Table 1, during the steam ironing phase, different materials correspond to different baffle angles, resulting in varying air volume and speed. During the dehumidification phase, different materials correspond to different baffle angles, resulting in varying air volume and speed. During the wrinkle removal phase, different baffle angles are set based on the garment material, weight, current humidity, and current spreading status, and these angles change in real time.

[0067] As an optional embodiment, before the washing machine is in the steam ironing stage, the method also includes: when the washing machine is in the first drying stage of the wet clothes drying stage, determining the third angle of the baffle according to the material of the clothes, wherein the first drying stage is used to increase the temperature of the inner drum according to the air outlet corresponding to the third angle; after the running time of the first drying stage reaches the set time, entering the second drying stage, and adjusting the baffle from the third angle to the fourth angle in the second drying stage, wherein the second drying stage is used to dehumidify the clothes after washing according to the air outlet corresponding to the fourth angle, the fourth angle is smaller than the third angle, and the angle of the baffle is proportional to the air volume and inversely proportional to the wind speed; after the running time of the second drying stage reaches the preset time, entering the third drying stage, and adjusting the angle of the baffle in the third drying stage so that the throwing state of the clothes reaches the set throwing state.

[0068] The wet laundry drying process consists of the first, second, and third drying stages. The first stage involves rotating the baffle to a third angle based on the laundry material, thereby controlling the airflow speed and volume. This is primarily intended to rapidly heat the drum to the dehumidification temperature. After washing, different materials contain varying amounts of water, leading to different heating rates and time to reach dehumidification temperature. Therefore, the baffle angles must be adjusted for each material to quickly reach the dehumidification temperature and increase the heating rate.

[0069] The second drying stage is used to blow air so that the clothes in the drum can fully absorb heat, reach a higher dehumidification state, and accelerate the drying efficiency of the load in the barrel. Since the clothes are currently wet and the external temperature is different from the internal temperature, targeted local blowing is required to increase the wind speed, which requires reducing the air volume. Then the rotation angle of the baffle is reduced to the fourth angle relative to the third angle in the first stage.

[0070] In the third drying stage, the clothes are thrown by the lifting ribs. The angle of the baffle is adjusted based on the current state of the clothes to achieve the set state of the clothes. Preferably, the angle of the baffle can be adjusted based on the current state of the clothes, the material of the clothes, and the current humidity of the clothes, to improve the superiority of the clothes throwing trajectory and reduce clothes wrinkles.

[0071] Table 2 shows the baffle angles at various stages of the drying process.

[0072]

[0073] Table 2

[0074] At the beginning of the drying process, the user selects the material of the garment to be treated, thus entering the appropriate drying program mode. As shown in Table 2, in the first drying stage, different materials correspond to different baffle angles, resulting in varying air volume and speed. In the second drying stage, the baffle angle is reduced, resulting in lower air volume and higher speed. In the third drying stage, different baffle angles are set based on the garment material, the current humidity level, and the current spreading state, and these angles change in real time.

[0075] Based on the same technical concept, the present application provides a clothing care device, such as Figure 6 As shown, the device includes:
