[0002] Clothing processing equipment typically uses a timed drying control method to execute the clothing drying process.

[0003] This invention aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in related technologies. Therefore, the first objective of this invention is to propose a clothing drying control method that, during the clothing drying process, re-predicts the drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial and current moisture contents, and then adjusts the remaining drying time accordingly, thereby ensuring the drying effect and improving the user experience.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, a first aspect of the present invention provides a clothing drying control method, the method comprising: responding to a clothing drying command, acquiring the initial moisture content of the clothing to be dried, and performing clothing drying treatment according to a first target drying time; when the running time of the clothing drying treatment reaches a second target drying time, acquiring the current moisture content of the clothing to be dried, wherein the second target drying time is less than the first target drying time; adjusting the remaining drying time according to the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content, and continuing to perform clothing drying treatment according to the adjusted remaining drying time.

[0008] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the clothing drying control method, in response to a clothing drying command, acquires the initial moisture content of the clothing to be dried, executes clothing drying treatment according to a first target drying time, and acquires the current moisture content of the clothing to be dried when the running time of the clothing drying treatment reaches a second target drying time, wherein the second target drying time is less than the first target drying time. Then, based on the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content, the remaining drying time is adjusted, and the clothing drying treatment continues to be executed according to the adjusted remaining drying time. Thus, this method adjusts the remaining drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content, ensuring the clothing drying effect.

[0009] In addition, the clothing drying control method according to the above embodiments of the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:

[0010] According to one embodiment of the present invention, adjusting the remaining drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content includes: obtaining the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; determining a moisture content difference threshold based on the initial weight and a second target drying time; and adjusting the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold.

[0011] According to one embodiment of the present invention, determining a moisture content difference threshold based on an initial weight and a second target drying time includes: determining a weighing level based on the initial weight and a preset mapping relationship; and determining the moisture content difference threshold based on the weighing level and the second target drying time.

[0012] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the remaining drying time is adjusted based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold, including: when the moisture content deviation is less than or equal to the moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time is positively compensated to increase the remaining drying time; when the moisture content deviation is greater than the moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time remains unchanged.

[0013] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the moisture content difference threshold includes a first moisture content difference threshold and a second moisture content difference threshold, wherein the first moisture content difference threshold is less than the second moisture content difference threshold. Based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time is adjusted, including: when the moisture content deviation is less than the first moisture content difference threshold, positive compensation is performed on the remaining drying time to increase the remaining drying time; when the moisture content deviation is greater than the second moisture content difference threshold, reverse compensation is performed on the remaining drying time to shorten the remaining drying time; when the moisture content deviation is greater than or equal to the first moisture content difference and less than or equal to the second moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time remains unchanged.

[0014] According to one embodiment of the present invention, adjusting the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold further includes: obtaining the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; determining a compensation time based on the initial weight, the moisture content difference, and the moisture content difference threshold; and adjusting the remaining drying time based on the compensation time.

[0018] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a clothes drying control device acquires the initial moisture content of the clothes to be dried in response to a clothes drying command via an acquisition module. The control module executes the clothes drying process according to a first target drying time. When the drying process reaches a second target drying time, the current moisture content of the clothes to be dried is acquired, where the second target drying time is less than the first target drying time. The control module adjusts the remaining drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial and current moisture contents, and continues the clothes drying process according to the adjusted remaining drying time. Therefore, this device re-predicts the drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial and current moisture contents during the clothes drying process, thereby adjusting the remaining drying time, ensuring the clothes drying effect and improving the user experience.

[0019] To achieve the above objectives, a third aspect of the present invention provides a clothing processing device, comprising: a memory, a processor, and a clothing drying control program stored in the memory and executable on the processor.

[0025] Figure 2 A flowchart of a clothes drying control method according to an embodiment of the present invention;

[0026] Figure 3 This is a block diagram of a clothes drying control device according to an embodiment of the present invention;

[0027] Figure 4 This is a block diagram of a garment processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0028] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0029] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, outlines the clothing drying control method, clothing drying control device, clothing processing equipment, and computer-readable storage medium proposed in embodiments of the present invention.

[0030] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a clothing drying control method according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, the clothes drying control method of this invention may include:

[0032] S1, in response to the clothes drying command, obtains the initial moisture content of the clothes to be dried, and performs clothes drying treatment according to the first target drying time;

[0033] S2, determine that the running time of the clothes drying process has reached the second target drying time, and obtain the current moisture content of the clothes to be dried, wherein the second target drying time is less than the first target drying time;

[0034] S3, adjust the remaining drying time according to the difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content, and continue to perform the clothing drying process according to the adjusted remaining drying time.

[0035] Specifically, after the user places the clothes to be dried into the dryer drum, selects the drying mode, and presses the start button, the dryer confirms receipt of the clothes drying instruction, obtains the initial moisture content of the clothes to be dried through a humidity sensor, and then performs the clothes drying process according to the first target drying time. The first target drying time can be determined based on the drying mode selected by the user, or it can be determined based on parameters such as the initial moisture content and initial weight of the clothes to be dried; there is no limitation on this.

[0036] After the dryer has completed its second target drying time, the current moisture content of the clothes to be dried is obtained again via a humidity sensor. The difference between the initial and current moisture content is calculated, and the drying time is re-predicted based on this difference. The remaining drying time is then adjusted, and the dryer continues drying the clothes according to the adjusted remaining drying time. Adjustments to the remaining drying time can include increasing, decreasing, or keeping it constant.

[0037] For example, if the moisture content difference is too large, the dryer is considered to be drying the clothes well, and the remaining drying time can be shortened to reduce energy consumption while maintaining drying effect. Conversely, if the moisture content difference is too small, the dryer is considered to be drying the clothes poorly, and the remaining drying time can be increased to ensure drying effect. Whether the moisture content difference is too large or too small can be determined by comparing it to a preset moisture content threshold. Alternatively, the ratio between the moisture content difference and the initial moisture content can be obtained. This ratio determines the actual degree of dryness of the clothes, and comparing the actual degree of dryness with the target degree of dryness further assesses the drying effect and allows for adjustments to the remaining drying time. No restrictions are placed on this approach.

[0038] Furthermore, regarding the adjustment of the remaining drying time, corresponding time adjustment parameters can be preset based on preset conditions. When the moisture content difference meets the preset conditions, the remaining drying time is adjusted using the corresponding time adjustment parameters. For example, if the moisture content difference exceeds the first preset threshold, the corresponding time adjustment parameter is to shorten it by 5 minutes; if the moisture content difference is less than the second preset threshold, the corresponding time adjustment parameter is to increase it by 5 minutes.

[0039] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the clothes drying control method further includes: obtaining the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; and determining a first target drying time based on the initial weight.

[0040] Specifically, at the beginning of the drying process, the dryer uses a weighing sensor to obtain the initial weight of the clothes to be dried and determines the first target drying time based on the initial weight of the clothes. This makes the first target drying time closer to the actual required drying time, avoiding situations where a small amount of clothes to be dried takes the same amount of time as a large amount of clothes, resulting in wasted resources due to a small amount of clothes to be dried, or poor drying effect due to a large amount of clothes to be dried. This solves the problem of excessively long drying time for a small amount of clothes or poor drying effect for a large amount of clothes.

[0041] It should be noted that, in addition to the above-mentioned technical solution of obtaining the initial weight of the clothes to be dried using a weighing sensor, the initial weight of the clothes to be dried can also be determined based on the motor's operating parameters, such as motor current and electromotive force (EMF). Taking the motor's EMF as an example, after receiving the drying command, the motor is first controlled to reverse at least once, and the EMF of the motor at different stages during each reversal is acquired. Data processing is performed on these multiple motor EMFs, such as error judgment and averaging, to calculate the target EMF. Then, based on a preset table or formula relating the target EMF to the weight of the clothes, the weight of the clothes is determined according to the target EMF.

[0042] The dryer performs the drying process according to the first target drying time determined above. When the drying process reaches the second target drying time, it determines whether the clothes to be dried have achieved the target drying effect based on the difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content. Then, it adjusts the remaining drying time based on the moisture content difference to improve the drying adaptability. At the same time, it can also avoid drying errors caused by inaccurate initial weight and ensure the drying effect.

[0043] According to one embodiment of the present invention, determining a first target drying time based on an initial weight includes: determining a weighing level based on the initial weight and a preset mapping relationship; and determining a first target drying time based on the weighing level, wherein different weighing levels correspond to different first target drying times.

[0044] Specifically, the preset mapping relationship between the initial weight, weighing level, and the first target drying time can be shown in Table 1.

[0045] Table 1

[0046]

[0047]

[0048] Specifically, when the weighing weight is less than or equal to 500g, it corresponds to weighing level 1, and the first target drying time for weighing level 1 is 30 minutes; when the weighing weight is greater than 500g and less than or equal to 2kg, it corresponds to weighing level 2, and the first target drying time for weighing level 2 is 60 minutes; when the weighing weight is greater than 2kg and less than or equal to 4kg, it corresponds to weighing level 3, and the first target drying time for weighing level 3 is 90 minutes, and so on, divided into six weighing levels.

[0049] During the drying control process, the machine first responds to the drying command and obtains the initial weight of the clothes to be dried. Based on the obtained initial weight, it looks up Table 1 to obtain the corresponding first target drying time. For example, when the initial weight of the clothes to be dried is determined to be 3kg, the weighing level can be set to level 3, the first target drying time can be set to 90min, and the dryer will perform the clothes drying operation according to 90min.

[0050] According to one embodiment of the present invention, adjusting the remaining drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content includes: obtaining the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; determining a moisture content difference threshold based on the initial weight and a second target drying time; and adjusting the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold.

[0051] Specifically, upon receiving a drying instruction, the dryer acquires the initial weight of the clothes to be dried, for example, using a weighing sensor. The second target drying time can be determined based on the first target drying time, for example, the second target drying time being half of the first target drying time. Then, a moisture content difference threshold is determined based on the initial weight and the second target drying time.

[0052] When the dryer reaches the second target drying time, the difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content is obtained, and the difference is compared with the moisture content difference threshold. The remaining drying time is then adjusted based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold.

[0053] The moisture content difference threshold can be one or more, without restriction. For example, if there is only one moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time remains unchanged when the moisture content difference is greater than or equal to the threshold; when the moisture content difference is less than the threshold, the remaining drying time is increased by a preset time. If there are multiple moisture content difference thresholds, intervals can be divided based on these thresholds, with different intervals corresponding to different time adjustment parameters. The remaining drying time can then be adjusted according to the time adjustment parameter corresponding to the interval in which the moisture content difference falls.

[0054] According to one embodiment of the present invention, determining a moisture content difference threshold based on an initial weight and a second target drying time includes: determining a weighing level based on the initial weight and a preset mapping relationship; and determining the moisture content difference threshold based on the weighing level and the second target drying time.

[0055] Specifically, the preset mapping relationship between initial weight, weighing range, and moisture content difference threshold can be shown in Table 2.

[0056] Table 2

[0057] Level 1 W≤500g △H1 Level 2 500g < W ≤ 2kg △H2 Level 3 2kg<W≤4kg △H3 Level 4 4kg<W≤6kg △H4 Level 5 6kg<W≤8kg △H5 Level 6 8kg<W≤10kg △H6

[0058] Referring to Table 2, the corresponding weighing level is determined by looking up the initial weight of the clothes to be dried. Assuming the second target drying time is half the first target drying time, the moisture content difference threshold is ΔH1 when the weighing level is level 1. Based on the relationship between the moisture content difference between the initial and current moisture contents and the moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time is adjusted to modify the first target drying time determined based on the initial weight, thereby improving the drying effect.

[0059] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the remaining drying time is adjusted based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold, including: when the moisture content difference is less than or equal to the moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time is positively compensated to increase the remaining drying time; when the moisture content difference is greater than the moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time remains unchanged.

[0060] Specifically, if the moisture content difference is less than or equal to the moisture content difference threshold, the drying effect is considered poor, and the remaining drying time is extended to ensure the drying effect; if the moisture content difference is greater than the moisture content difference threshold, the drying effect is considered to meet the target drying effect, and the drying operation is performed according to the remaining drying time.

[0061] In addition, a preset mapping relationship can be established between the weighing level, the weighing weight, the first target drying time, the moisture content difference threshold, and the remaining drying time, as shown in Table 3.

[0062] Table 3

[0063]

[0064] Taking a second target drying time that is half of the first target drying time as an example, assuming the initial weight of the clothes to be dried is 3kg, the weighing level is determined to be level 3, the first target drying time is 90 minutes, the moisture content difference threshold is ΔH3, and the second target drying time is half of the first target drying time, which is 45 minutes. After the clothes processing equipment has been running for 45 minutes, it is determined whether the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content is greater than ΔH3. If the moisture content difference is greater than ΔH3, then Time1 (45 minutes) corresponding to level 3 in Table 3 is used as the remaining drying time, that is, the remaining drying time remains unchanged. If the moisture content difference is less than or equal to ΔH3, then Time2 (60 minutes) corresponding to level 3 in Table 3 is used as the remaining drying time, that is, the remaining drying time is increased by 15 minutes to ensure the drying effect.

[0065] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the moisture content difference threshold includes a first moisture content difference threshold and a second moisture content difference threshold, wherein the first moisture content difference threshold is less than the second moisture content difference threshold. Based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time is adjusted, including: when the moisture content difference is less than the first moisture content difference threshold, positive compensation is performed on the remaining drying time to increase the remaining drying time; when the moisture content difference is greater than the second moisture content difference threshold, reverse compensation is performed on the remaining drying time to shorten the remaining drying time; when the moisture content difference is greater than or equal to the first moisture content difference and less than or equal to the second moisture content difference threshold, the remaining drying time remains unchanged.

[0066] Specifically, with the initial weight of the clothes to be dried being 3kg, the weighing level is set to level 3, the first target drying time is 90min, and the moisture content difference thresholds include the first moisture content difference threshold △H31 and the second moisture content difference threshold △H32, where △H31 < △H32, and the second target drying time is half of the first target drying time, which is 45min.

[0067] After the garment processing equipment has been running for 45 minutes, the relationship between the difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content and ΔH31 and ΔH32 is determined. If the difference is less than ΔH31, the drying effect is considered poor, and the remaining drying time is increased by 10 minutes, i.e., the drying operation continues for 55 minutes. If the difference is greater than ΔH32, the drying effect is considered good, and the remaining drying time is shortened by 5 minutes, i.e., the drying operation continues for 40 minutes. If the difference is greater than or equal to ΔH31 and less than or equal to ΔH32, the drying effect is considered to have reached the target drying effect, and the drying operation continues for the remaining 45 minutes.

[0068] According to one embodiment of the present invention, adjusting the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold further includes: obtaining the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; determining a compensation time based on the initial weight, the moisture content difference, and the moisture content difference threshold; and adjusting the remaining drying time based on the compensation time.

[0069] Specifically, in addition to adjusting the remaining drying time with a fixed compensation time as described above, a specific compensation time can also be determined based on the initial weight, the difference in moisture content, and the threshold of the difference in moisture content. The remaining drying time can then be adjusted using this specific compensation time to achieve a better drying effect.

[0070] Assuming an initial weight of 500g, and taking the corresponding moisture content difference threshold and ΔH1 as an example, when the moisture content difference is greater than ΔH1, the difference between the moisture content difference and ΔH1 is further determined, and a specific positive compensation time is determined based on this difference for the drying operation. It is understandable that the larger the difference, the longer the required compensation time. Specifically, a preset relationship between the moisture content difference and the corresponding moisture content threshold and the compensation time can be set in advance. For example, when the difference between the moisture content difference and ΔH1 is less than or equal to 5%, the compensation time is 5 minutes; when the difference is greater than 5% but less than 10%, the compensation time is 8 minutes; and so on. Multiple compensation times can be set, and in actual application, the specific compensation time is determined based on this relationship.

[0071] In addition to the above method of determining the specific compensation time based on the difference between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold determined according to the initial weight, the deviation between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold can also be determined based on the ratio between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold determined according to the initial weight, so as to determine the specific compensation time. This is not limited here.

[0072] As a specific embodiment of this application, such as Figure 2 As shown, the clothes drying control method may include the following steps:

[0073] S201, Receive clothes drying instruction and obtain the initial moisture content H1 of the clothes to be dried.

[0074] S202, Obtain the initial weight of the clothes to be dried.

[0075] S203, determine the weighing level based on the initial weight and the preset mapping relationship.

[0076] S204, determine the first target drying time T1, the second target drying time T2, and the moisture content difference threshold △H based on the weighing gear.

[0077] S205, perform garment drying treatment according to the first target drying time T1.

[0078] S206, determine whether the running time t of the clothes drying process has reached the second target drying time T2. If yes, proceed to step S207; if no, proceed to step S205.

[0079] S207, obtain the current moisture content H2 of the clothes to be dried.

[0080] S208, determine whether the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content H1 and the current moisture content H2 is greater than the moisture content difference threshold ΔH. If yes, proceed to step S209; otherwise, proceed to step S211.

[0081] S209, keep the remaining drying time unchanged.

[0082] S210, continue the clothes drying process according to the adjusted remaining drying time.

[0083] S211, increase the remaining drying time by Δt. Execute step S210.

[0084] In summary, the clothing drying control method according to embodiments of the present invention, in response to a clothing drying command, obtains the initial moisture content of the clothing to be dried, executes clothing drying treatment according to a first target drying time, and when the running time of the clothing drying treatment reaches a second target drying time, obtains the current moisture content of the clothing to be dried, wherein the second target drying time is less than the first target drying time. Then, based on the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content, the remaining drying time is adjusted, and the clothing drying treatment continues to be executed according to the adjusted remaining drying time. Therefore, this method, during the clothing drying process, re-predicts the drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial and current moisture contents, and adjusts the remaining drying time accordingly, ensuring the clothing drying effect and improving the user experience.

[0085] Corresponding to the above embodiments, the present invention also proposes a clothing drying control device.

[0086] like Figure 3 As shown, the clothes drying control device of this embodiment may include: an acquisition module 10 and a control module 20.

[0087] The acquisition module 10 is used to acquire the initial moisture content of the clothes to be dried in response to the clothes drying command; the control module 20 is used to perform clothes drying treatment according to the first target drying time; the acquisition module 10 is also used to acquire the current moisture content of the clothes to be dried when the running time of the clothes drying treatment reaches the second target drying time, wherein the second target drying time is less than the first target drying time; the control module 20 is also used to adjust the remaining drying time according to the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content, and continue to perform clothes drying treatment according to the adjusted remaining drying time.

[0088] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the control module 20 adjusts the remaining drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial moisture content and the current moisture content, specifically for: obtaining the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; determining a moisture content difference threshold based on the initial weight and a second target drying time; and adjusting the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold.

[0089] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the control module 20 determines the moisture content difference threshold based on the initial weight and the second target drying time, specifically for: determining the weighing level based on the initial weight and the preset mapping relationship; and determining the moisture content difference threshold based on the weighing level and the second target drying time.

[0090] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the control module 20 adjusts the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold. Specifically, it is used to: positively compensate the remaining drying time to increase the remaining drying time when the moisture content deviation is less than or equal to the moisture content difference threshold; and keep the remaining drying time unchanged when the moisture content deviation is greater than the moisture content difference threshold.

[0091] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the moisture content difference threshold includes a first moisture content difference threshold and a second moisture content difference threshold. The first moisture content difference threshold is less than the second moisture content difference threshold. The control module 20 adjusts the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold. Specifically, it is used to: positively compensate the remaining drying time to increase the remaining drying time when the moisture content deviation is less than the first moisture content difference threshold; negatively compensate the remaining drying time to shorten the remaining drying time when the moisture content deviation is greater than or equal to the first moisture content difference and less than or equal to the second moisture content difference threshold; and keep the remaining drying time unchanged when the moisture content deviation is greater than or equal to the first moisture content difference and less than or equal to the second moisture content difference threshold.

[0092] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the control module 20 adjusts the remaining drying time based on the relationship between the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold, and is also used to: obtain the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; determine the compensation time according to the initial weight, the moisture content difference and the moisture content difference threshold; and adjust the remaining drying time according to the compensation time.

[0093] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the control module 20 is further configured to: obtain the initial weight of the clothes to be dried; and determine a first target drying time based on the initial weight.

[0094] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the control module 20 determines a first target drying time based on the initial weight, specifically for: determining a weighing level based on the initial weight and a preset mapping relationship; and determining a first target drying time based on the weighing level, wherein different weighing levels correspond to different first target drying times.

[0095] It should be noted that for details not disclosed in the clothing drying control device of the present invention, please refer to the details disclosed in the clothing drying control method of the above embodiments of the present invention, which will not be repeated here.

[0096] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a clothes drying control device acquires the initial moisture content of the clothes to be dried via a first acquisition module in response to a clothes drying command. A control module then executes the clothes drying process according to a first target drying time. When the clothes drying process reaches a second target drying time, a second acquisition module acquires the current moisture content of the clothes to be dried. If the second target drying time is less than the first target drying time, the control module adjusts the remaining drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial and current moisture contents, and continues the clothes drying process according to the adjusted remaining drying time. Therefore, this device re-predicts the drying time based on the moisture content difference between the initial and current moisture contents during the clothes drying process, thereby adjusting the remaining drying time, ensuring the clothes drying effect and improving the user experience.

[0097] Corresponding to the above embodiments, the present invention also proposes a garment processing device.

[0098] like Figure 4 As shown, the clothing processing device 100 of this embodiment includes: a memory 110, a processor 120, and a clothing drying control program stored in the memory 110 and executable on the processor 120.
