Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of washing machine clothing handling equipment technology, and in particular to a clothing washing control method, device, equipment and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] Washing machines typically work by using a drive mechanism to generate water flow that tumbles the laundry. During this tumbling process, force is applied to the laundry, causing it to repeatedly wash itself through friction with the inner drum wall, thus achieving the purpose of cleaning.

[0003] Current washing machines typically employ a single and fixed washing method. After water is introduced, the washing machine continuously rotates at high speed, using water flow to constantly tumble and rub the clothes, thus completing the washing process. To improve cleaning efficiency, large rotation angles and high spin speeds are usually used to create a strong water flow that agitates the clothes. However, for delicate garments, such as Hanfu (traditional Han Chinese clothing), existing washing methods can easily cause problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and abrasion. Summary of the Invention

[0020] The method includes:

[0021] After starting the low-tangle washing program, the following steps are included:

[0022] The washing cycle is executed sequentially in the washing phase.

[0023] Each of the washing cycles includes the first washing process and the second washing process.

[0040] The garment washing control method provided in this embodiment can initiate a low-tangle washing program for delicate garments, executing a first washing process in which the washing assembly is controlled to rotate forward and / or reverse at a first rotation angle. The first rotation angle is smaller than the rotation angle of the washing assembly corresponding to the washing stage in other washing programs. That is, during the first washing process, the rotation angle of the washing assembly of the garment handling device is smaller than the rotation angle of the washing assembly corresponding to the washing stage in other washing programs used for washing ordinary garments. This effectively alleviates problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and wear of garments during washing. Therefore, the washing program described in this embodiment can effectively meet the washing needs for less tangling, lower wear, color protection, and anti-snagging during garment washing.

[0046] Figure 4 This is a structural block diagram of a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure. Detailed Implementation

[0047] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this disclosure, the solutions disclosed herein will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.

[0048] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this disclosure, but this disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some, and not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0049] In existing washing processes, to ensure effective cleaning, the washing machine's washing components, such as the pulsator, are typically controlled to rotate rapidly at large angles. The rotation angle of these components can reach, for example, 1800 rpm (Revolutions Per Minute). The rotation angle of the clothes within the washing components ranges from 180 degrees to 360 degrees. This large-angle rotation creates a strong water flow within the tub. The pulsator's rotation, or the simultaneous rotation of the pulsator and inner tub, tumbles the clothes, causing them to repeatedly wash through friction against themselves and the pulsator and tub walls. However, because the pulsator rotates at a large angle and high speed during washing, the centrifugal force of the water flow causes the clothes to rotate rapidly in one direction, easily leading to tangling and tearing damage, especially to delicate fabrics. Therefore, this disclosure provides a method for controlling the washing of clothes.

[0050] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a clothing washing control method provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. This method can be executed by a clothing washing control device provided in this embodiment, which can be implemented using software and / or hardware. The clothing washing control method provided in this embodiment is applicable to both top-loading and front-loading washing machines, and is particularly suitable for top-loading washing machines. Figure 1 As shown, the method is used in a garment handling apparatus having washing components. The garment handling apparatus includes multiple washing programs, each washing program including a washing phase that controls the washing components to rotate forward and / or reverse. The multiple washing programs include at least a low-tangle washing program. The washing phase of the low-tangle washing program includes a first washing process.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the clothing washing control method includes the following steps:

[0052] S110: Receive a low-tangle washing program trigger command, start the low-tangle washing program, and execute the first washing process by controlling the washing components to rotate forward and / or reverse at a first rotation angle.

[0053] The first rotation angle is smaller than the rotation angle at which the washing components rotate clockwise and / or counterclockwise in all other washing programs.

[0054] For delicate garments, embodiments of this disclosure can initiate a low-tangle washing program. In the first washing cycle of the low-tangle washing program, the washing assembly is controlled to rotate clockwise and / or counterclockwise at a first rotation angle, which is smaller than the rotation angle at which the washing assembly rotates clockwise and / or counterclockwise in all other washing programs. Because the low-tangle washing program has the smallest rotation angle of the washing assembly in the first washing cycle, it causes the garment to rotate at the smallest angle, thus achieving better anti-wear and anti-tangle effects than other washing programs.

[0055] It should be noted that the washing components of the clothing handling equipment in this embodiment can be a pulsator, an inner tub, etc. This embodiment can be applied to either a pulsator washing machine or a drum washing machine.

[0056] The garment washing control method provided in this disclosure includes other washing programs in the garment processing equipment, such as wool washing programs, down jacket washing programs, or other specific function washing programs. For delicate garments, a low-tangle washing program is initiated, executing a first washing process in which the washing components are controlled to rotate forward and / or reverse at a first rotation angle. In all washing programs of the garment processing equipment, the first rotation angle of the low-tangle washing program is smaller than the rotation angle of the washing components corresponding to the washing stages in other washing programs. That is, in the first washing process, the rotation angle of the washing components of the garment processing equipment is smaller than the rotation angle of the washing components corresponding to the washing stages in other washing programs used for washing ordinary garments. Therefore, the rotation angle of the garment is smaller, resulting in better anti-wear and anti-tangle effects than other washing programs. This effectively alleviates problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and wear of garments during washing. Therefore, the low-tangle washing program has a smaller first rotation angle than all other programs, achieving better anti-tangle, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and wear effects than other washing programs, making it more suitable for washing garment types, especially Hanfu (traditional Han clothing), which have higher anti-tangle requirements.

[0057] In some embodiments, a low-tangle washing program refers to a type of washing program with low-tangle characteristics, used for washing clothing with high requirements for low tangle. For example, Hanfu has many ropes and knots, and some also have structures such as hot stamping, beading and embroidery decorations, which have high requirements for low tangle during the washing process. Therefore, the Hanfu washing program in the clothing processing equipment can be a low-tangle washing program as described in this disclosure.

[0058] In some embodiments, the low-tangle washing program further includes a second washing process. After initiating the low-tangle washing program, it also includes:

[0059] Perform a second washing process by controlling the washing assembly to rotate forward and / or reverse at a second rotation angle.

[0060] The second rotation angle is smaller than the first rotation angle.

[0061] The technical solution provided in this disclosure, after initiating a low-tangle washing program, can also execute a second washing process where the washing components are controlled to rotate forward and / or reverse at a second rotation angle. The first rotation angle in the first washing process is controlled to be greater than the second rotation angle in the second washing process. This allows for efficient washing in the first washing process, generating a strong washing water flow that ensures both high cleaning efficiency and reduced tangling. In the second washing process, the second rotation angle is smaller, essentially a balanced washing process. This allows for continued stain removal while also helping to smooth and disperse any slight tangling or stacking of clothing that may have occurred after the first washing process, further reducing tangling. Furthermore, in this disclosure, both the first and second rotation angles are smaller than the rotation angles of the washing components in other washing programs. This effectively alleviates problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and wear on clothing during washing compared to other programs. Therefore, it can simultaneously meet the washing needs for stain removal, low tangling, low wear, color protection, and anti-snagging.

[0062] In some embodiments, the start-stop ratio of the first washing process is greater than the start-stop ratio of all other washing programs.

[0063] The technical solution provided in this disclosure defines the rotation-to-stop ratio as the ratio of the continuous rotation time to the continuous pause time of the washing component in the garment processing equipment during the washing process. Specifically, the rotation-to-stop ratio in the first washing process is greater than that in all other washing programs. This allows for small-scale, high-frequency rotation of the washing component, ensuring efficient washing of the clothes. Furthermore, a higher rotation-to-stop ratio in the first washing process indicates a higher water flow intensity generated by the rotation of the washing component. Therefore, a stronger water flow intensity within the washing component results in a stronger rinsing force on the clothes, and consequently, a stronger washing power from the garment processing equipment. This enables efficient washing in the first washing process, ensuring a high cleaning rate for the clothes.

[0064] In some embodiments, the start-stop ratio of the first washing process is greater than or equal to 10.

[0065] The technical solution provided in this disclosure sets the start-stop ratio of the first washing process to be greater than or equal to 10. This ensures that the clothes are not only cleaned and their washing efficiency is guaranteed during the first washing process, but also effectively alleviates problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and wear during washing. Therefore, it can effectively meet the washing needs of clothes for less tangling, less wear, color protection, and anti-snagging.

[0066] In some embodiments, the start-stop ratio of the second washing process is less than that of the first washing process.

[0067] The technical solution provided in this disclosure defines the rotation-to-stop ratio of the second washing process as the ratio of the continuous rotation time to the continuous stop time of the washing component of the garment processing equipment during the second washing process. In this disclosure, when the rotation-to-stop ratio of the second washing process is less than that of the first washing process, the water flow intensity generated by the rotation of the washing component of the garment processing equipment during the second washing process is relatively small. The second washing process is equivalent to a balanced washing process. On the one hand, the second washing process can continue to remove dirt; on the other hand, it helps to flatten and disperse any slightly tangled or piled garments that may have occurred after the first washing process.

[0068] In some embodiments, the range of the first rotation angle is 1000 degrees to 1400 degrees.

[0069] The technical solution provided in this embodiment can control the first rotation angle range to be 1000 degrees to 1400 degrees. During the first washing process, the washing component of the garment processing equipment is controlled to rotate in both forward and reverse directions within the first rotation angle range. This allows for efficient washing, generating a strong water flow. The garments are effectively washed by the strong water flow, ensuring a high cleaning rate. Furthermore, because the first rotation angle range is smaller than the rotation angle of the washing component in other washing programs, compared to the large-angle rotation of the washing component in other programs, the rotation stroke of the washing component in the first washing process provided in this embodiment is smaller. This results in a smaller angle at which the water flow within the washing component rotates the garments, effectively mitigating problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and wear during washing. The washing component can be, for example, a pulsator structure or an inner tub structure, where the inner tub structure rotates to rotate the clothes and water.

[0070] In some embodiments, the range of the second rotation angle is 300 degrees to 500 degrees.

[0071] The technical solution provided in this disclosure allows for controlling the second rotation angle range to be 300 to 500 degrees. During the second washing process, the washing components of the garment processing equipment are controlled to rotate in both forward and reverse directions within the second rotation angle range. Since the second rotation angle range is not only smaller than the rotation angle of the washing components corresponding to the washing stages in other washing programs, but also smaller than the first rotation angle range, the second washing process is equivalent to a balanced washing process. On the one hand, the second washing process can continue to remove dirt; on the other hand, it helps to flatten and disperse slightly tangled or piled garments that may have occurred after the first washing process, further preventing problems such as tangling, deformation, and wrinkles. In particular, it can effectively meet the washing needs of Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) for dirt removal, less tangling, low wear, color protection, and anti-snagging.

[0072] In some embodiments, during the first washing process, the time range for the clothes handling device to continuously rotate forward or in reverse is 1.2s to 1.6s, and / or the time for the clothes handling device to continuously stop rotating is less than or equal to 0.5s.

[0073] The technical solution provided in this disclosure achieves efficient washing in the first washing process, generating a strong washing water flow to ensure a high washing rate for the clothes. Therefore, during the first washing process, the washing component of the clothing handling device rotates continuously in either forward or reverse direction for a period ranging from 1.2s to 1.6s. This satisfies the washing rate requirement while mitigating the problem of clothes tangling during prolonged washing. And / or, the washing component of the clothing handling device remains stationary for a period less than or equal to 0.5s. The shorter the stationary time, the better, as this minimizes the angle of rotation due to inertia and improves washing efficiency, ultimately increasing the washing rate.

[0074] In some embodiments, during the second washing process, the time range for the clothes handling device to continuously rotate forward or in reverse is 0.4s to 0.6s, and / or the time range for the clothes handling device to continuously stop rotating is 0.4s to 0.6s.

[0075] The technical solution provided in this disclosure, since the second washing process is equivalent to a balanced washing process, allows the washing component of the garment handling equipment to rotate continuously in either the forward or reverse direction for a period of 0.4s to 0.6s during the second washing process. This satisfies both the washing efficiency and the effect of leveling and dispersing the garments. Alternatively, during the second washing process, the washing component of the garment handling equipment can be set to stop rotating for a period of 0.4s to 0.6s, which facilitates thorough leveling and dispersion of the garments.

[0076] For example, performing a first washing process by controlling the washing assembly to rotate forward and / or reverse at a first rotation angle includes, for example, performing a cycle washing n1 times according to a first beat by controlling the washing assembly to rotate at a first rotation angle.

[0077] The low-tangle washing program also includes a second washing process, which, after the low-tangle washing program is started, executes a second washing process by controlling the washing assembly to rotate forward and / or reverse at a second rotation angle, such as executing the washing assembly to cycle and wash n2 times according to a second beat, by controlling the washing assembly to rotate at a second rotation angle.

[0078] The turn-to-stop ratio in the first beat is greater than that in the second beat. n1 and n2 are both positive integers.

[0079] A cycle time refers to a combination of the pause time, forward rotation time, pause time, and reverse rotation time of the washing component in a garment processing device. For example, a first cycle time could be a 0.1-second pause, a 1.3-second forward rotation, a 0.1-second pause, and a 1.3-second reverse rotation of the washing component. During the first washing cycle, the washing component can be controlled to cycle through the washing process n1 times at a first rotation angle based on this first cycle time. For example, a second cycle time could be a 0.5-second pause, a 0.5-second forward rotation, a 0.5-second pause, and a 0.5-second reverse rotation of the washing component. During the second washing cycle, the washing component can be controlled to cycle through the washing process n2 times at a second rotation angle based on this second cycle time.

[0080] The forward rotation time, pause time, and reverse rotation time of the washing components of the garment processing equipment in the first and second cycles can be set according to actual washing needs, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0081] The technical solution provided in this disclosure defines the rotation-to-stop ratio of the first cycle as the ratio of the continuous rotation time to the continuous pause time of the washing component of the garment processing equipment during the first washing process. A larger rotation-to-stop ratio in the first cycle indicates a higher water flow intensity generated by the rotation of the washing component during the first washing process. Therefore, the water flow intensity inside the inner tub of the garment processing equipment is greater, resulting in stronger rinsing force on the clothes and consequently stronger washing power. This allows for efficient washing during the first washing process, ensuring a high cleaning rate. The rotation-to-stop ratio of the second cycle is the ratio of the continuous rotation time to the continuous pause time of the washing component of the garment processing equipment during the second washing process. In this disclosure, when the rotation-to-stop ratio of the second cycle is less than that of the first cycle, the water flow intensity generated by the rotation of the washing component during the second washing process is relatively smaller. The second washing process is equivalent to a balanced washing process. On the one hand, the second washing process can continue to remove dirt; on the other hand, it helps to flatten and disperse any slightly tangled or piled clothes that may have occurred after the first washing process.

[0082] In some embodiments, n1 and n2 can be the same or different, for example, n1 can be set to n2, both being 6 times. Specifically, the settings can be configured according to the actual washing needs of the clothes, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0083] In some embodiments, the rotational speed of the washing components in the first washing process and / or the second washing process is in the range of 750 rpm to 800 rpm.

[0084] Generally, the higher the rotation speed of the washing unit in a garment processing device, the greater its rotational speed. When the washing unit rotates, it applies force to the water flow within it. At high speeds, a strong water flow is generated, continuously patting and rubbing the clothes to ensure a high cleaning efficiency. However, excessively high rotation speeds can easily cause problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and abrasion. The technical solution provided in this disclosure sets the rotation speed of the washing unit in the first and / or second washing processes to 750 rpm to 800 rpm. For example, 750 rpm can be set. In the first and / or second washing processes, a strong water flow is generated within the washing unit, ensuring that the clothes are continuously patted and rubbed by the water flow to remove dirt, while also preventing tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and abrasion.

[0085] The technical solution provided in this disclosure involves a washing component of the garment processing equipment that rotates continuously in either forward or reverse direction for a longer period during the first washing process than during the second washing process. This ensures efficient washing in the first process, allowing the garments to be thoroughly agitated and rubbed by a strong water flow, guaranteeing a high cleaning rate. In the second washing process, the washing component of the garment processing equipment remains stationary for a longer period than in the first washing process. Since the second washing process is essentially a balanced washing process, it allows for continued stain removal while also helping to smooth out and disperse any slightly tangled or piled garments that may have occurred after the first washing process. This ensures that during the second washing process, while maintaining thorough agitation, the longer period of stationary rotation also allows for the loosening of slightly tangled or piled garments, preventing problems such as tangling, deformation, and wrinkles.

[0086] The technical solution provided in this embodiment controls the washing component of the garment handling equipment to cycle and wash n1 times at a first rotation angle according to a first cycle during the first washing process. Simultaneously, the water volume injected during the water inlet stage is a first preset high water level, and the rotation speed of the washing component of the garment handling equipment is within the range of 750 rpm to 800 rpm. This parameter design, combined with the small-angle rotation and high water level, increases the resistance to the rotation of the clothes within the washing component. Furthermore, the first rotation angle is smaller than the rotation angle of the washing component corresponding to other washing stages in other washing programs. This allows the rotation angle of the clothes within the washing component during the first washing process to be controlled within the range of 60 degrees to 90 degrees. Rotating the clothes within a range of less than 90 degrees ensures both high washing efficiency and effectively alleviates problems such as tangling.

[0087] The technical solution provided in this embodiment controls the washing component of the garment handling device to cycle and wash n2 times at a second rotation angle according to a second rhythm during the second washing process. Simultaneously, the water volume injected during the water inlet stage is a first preset high water level, and the rotation speed of the washing component of the garment handling device is within the range of 750 rpm to 800 rpm. This parameter design, combined with the small rotation angle and high water level, increases the resistance to the rotation of the clothes within the washing component. Furthermore, the second rotation angle is smaller than the rotation angle of the washing component corresponding to the washing stage in other washing programs, allowing the rotation angle of the clothes within the washing component to be controlled within the range of 20 degrees to 30 degrees during the second washing process. Rotation of the clothes within this angle range helps to flatten and disperse any slight tangling or stacking of clothes that may occur after the first washing process. Moreover, because the water flow within the washing component causes the clothes to rotate at a relatively small angle, it effectively alleviates problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and wear of the clothes during the washing process.

[0088] In some embodiments, the washing phase of a low-tangle washing program includes multiple washing cycles.

[0089] The method includes the following after initiating the low-tangle washing program:

[0090] Multiple washing cycles are executed sequentially during the washing phase.

[0091] Each washing cycle includes a first washing process and a second washing process.

[0092] The laundry washing control method provided in this disclosure can achieve efficient washing in the first washing process, forming a strong washing water flow to ensure the washing rate of clothes. If only the first washing process is performed once in the washing stage, in order to ensure the washing rate of clothes, the washing components must be controlled to rotate continuously for a long time. This will cause clothes to pile up and tangle, and may also cause the washed clothes to be torn and damaged. The technical solution provided in this disclosure provides a second washing process, which is equivalent to a balanced washing process. On the one hand, the second washing process can continue to remove dirt, and on the other hand, it helps to flatten and disperse the slightly tangled and piled clothes that may have occurred after the first washing process. This washing method, which combines the first washing process and the second washing process, can alleviate the problem of clothes tangling and being damaged due to strong washing in the first washing process. At the same time, the washing stage of the low tangling washing program includes multiple washing cycles, which can shorten the washing time of each first washing process. By performing multiple alternating short first washing processes, the washing rate of clothes can be met, effectively alleviating the problems of clothes piling up and tangling, and the problem of washed clothes being torn and damaged.

[0093] In some embodiments, the low-tangle washing program further includes a rinsing phase. After the rinsing phase of the low-tangle washing program is completed, the method further includes:

[0094] Perform the rinsing stage.

[0095] The rinsing stage includes at least one rinsing process in which the washing components rotate forward and / or in reverse at a third rotation angle, wherein the third rotation angle is less than or equal to the second rotation angle.

[0096] In some embodiments, multiple rinsing processes can be set according to actual washing needs, with each rinsing component rotating forward and / or backward at a third rotation angle. The more rinsing processes, the cleaner the clothes are rinsed, and the more detergent and / or washing powder residue can be removed from the clothes. The number of rinsing processes is set according to the actual washing needs of the clothes, and this disclosure is not limited in this respect.

[0097] The technical solution provided in this embodiment controls the washing components of the garment processing equipment to rotate in both directions at a third rotation angle during each rinsing process. The third rotation angle during the rinsing process is less than or equal to the second rotation angle during the second washing process. This ensures that while the garments are tumbled and rinsed, tangling and wear are minimized during the rinsing process. Therefore, the washing program described in this embodiment can simultaneously meet the washing and stain removal needs of garments, as well as the washing requirements for less tangling, less wear, color protection, and anti-snagging.

[0098] In some embodiments, the start-stop ratio of each rinsing process is less than or equal to the start-stop ratio of the second washing process.

[0099] The rotation-to-stop ratio for each rinsing cycle is the ratio of the continuous rotation time to the continuous pause time of the washing components of the garment handling equipment during each rinsing cycle. In this embodiment, the rotation-to-stop ratio for each rinsing cycle is set to be less than or equal to the rotation-to-stop ratio for the second washing cycle. This indicates that the water flow intensity generated by the rotation of the washing components of the garment handling equipment during rinsing is relatively low. This ensures that while the garments are tumbled and rinsed, tangling and wear are minimized. Therefore, the washing program described in this embodiment can simultaneously meet the washing needs for cleaning and stain removal, as well as minimizing tangling, reducing wear, protecting color, and preventing snagging.

[0100] For example, during the rinsing process, the washing components of the garment handling equipment can be controlled to cycle and wash n3 times at a third rotation angle according to a third cycle. Optionally, the third cycle in the rinsing process can be consistent with the second cycle in the second washing process. The forward rotation time, pause time, and reverse rotation time of the washing components of the garment handling equipment in the third cycle can be set according to actual rinsing needs, and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0101] Figure 2 This is a schematic flowchart of another clothing washing control method provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the clothing washing control method includes the following steps:

[0102] Steps: Obtaining the low-tangle washing program trigger command includes:

[0103] S211: Obtain the style and type of laundry items.

[0104] In step S211, the user can selectively trigger the garment processing device to obtain a command to retrieve the style and type of the laundry; or the garment processing device can automatically identify the laundry to obtain the command; or the user can directly input the style and type of the laundry to obtain the corresponding information. For example, the user can directly issue a command to the garment processing device to retrieve the style and type of the laundry through the control panel, or directly select parameters or procedures for the style and type of the laundry. In some embodiments, the user can also issue a command to the garment processing device to retrieve the style and type of the laundry through a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone.

[0105] S212: Determine that the style of the laundry is low-tangle washing mode, and obtain the low-tangle washing program trigger instruction.

[0106] When it is determined that the style of the laundry is a low-tangle washing style, a low-tangle washing program trigger command can be obtained to start the washing program that executes this method.

[0107] S110: After receiving the low-tangle washing program trigger command, start the low-tangle washing program and execute the first washing process by controlling the washing component to rotate forward and / or reverse at the first rotation angle.

[0108] The technical solution provided in this disclosure can accurately determine whether a garment processing device is using a low-tangle washing program by obtaining the type of clothing being washed, and can also obtain the low-tangle washing program trigger command. The method is simple, easy to implement, and conveniently determines whether the garment processing device is using a low-tangle washing program, making the design of the garment processing device more user-friendly. Furthermore, by setting a low-tangle washing program in the garment processing device, users can select the low-tangle washing program based on the characteristics of the clothes being washed, providing users with multiple washing options to meet various user needs. The method is simple and easy to implement.

[0109] To improve washing efficiency, large rotation angles and high-speed, powerful water flow are typically used to agitate the garments. However, for delicate clothing, such as Hanfu (traditional Han Chinese clothing), existing washing methods can easily cause problems such as tangling, deformation, snagging, wrinkling, and abrasion.

[0110] For example, taking Hanfu (traditional Han clothing) as an example, which is prone to tangling, Hanfu is usually made of polyester (polyester fiber). To meet the needs of wearing comfort, Hanfu is often made of cotton, linen, viscose fiber, etc. For example, lightweight summer Hanfu is often made of chiffon, and a few are made of silk. Winter Hanfu is often made of wool. Because the washing and care requirements for ordinary cotton, linen, and synthetic fiber materials are not color bleeding, are easy to wash, have few wrinkles, and have low wear, Hanfu has higher washing and care requirements. Hanfu styles are quite diverse. For example, winter Hanfu is often a wide-sleeved robe, while summer Hanfu is often a loosely structured lightweight chiffon with thin rope ties, and some have gold foil, beading, and embroidery decorations. Therefore, by obtaining the type of clothing to be washed, and determining that the clothing is prone to tangling based on the type of clothing, the garment processing equipment can be determined to use a low-tangling washing program, and then the low-tangling washing program trigger command can be obtained.

[0111] Optionally, the type of garment being washed can be determined by obtaining the label on the garment. This label could be, for example, an RFID tag storing information such as the garment's type. Alternatively, image recognition technology can be used to determine the garment's type. For instance, images of garments requiring a low-tangle washing program can be pre-stored in a memory. Before or after the garment is placed in the washing unit, a photograph is taken of the garment, and the image is compared with the stored images to determine the type of garment in the washing unit.

[0112] For example, Hanfu clothing often features thin, long ropes for tying, and some also have gold foil stamping, beading, and embroidery decorations. Therefore, one can identify whether a garment is prone to tangling by recognizing at least one of the following: ropes, gold foil stamping, embroidery, or beads.

[0113] Therefore, the technical solution provided in this disclosure can accurately determine that the clothing processing equipment is a low-tangle washing program by obtaining the type of clothing to be washed.

[0114] In some embodiments, step S212: determining that the style of the laundry is a low-tangle washing style, and obtaining a low-tangle washing program trigger instruction, including:

[0115] If the style of the clothes to be washed is Hanfu, the clothes are determined to be in the low-tangle washing mode, and the low-tangle washing program trigger command is obtained.

[0116] The washing method provided in this disclosure addresses the issue that Hanfu clothing, for example, often features thin, long cords and knots, and some pieces are decorated with gold foil, beads, and embroidery, making them prone to tangling during washing. Therefore, if the garment being washed is of Hanfu style, it can be determined that the washing process is for low-tangling applications, thus identifying it as easily tangled and allowing the garment processing equipment to be set to a low-tangling washing program. The method is simple and easy to implement.

[0117] By way of example, the laundry washing control method provided in this disclosure includes not only a washing stage and a rinsing stage, but also, for example, a water inlet stage and a spin-drying stage. The laundry washing control method includes a water inlet stage, a washing stage, a rinsing stage, and a spin-drying stage executed sequentially.

[0118] The water intake stage can employ any water intake method known to those skilled in the art, and this disclosure is not limited thereto. The dehydration stage can employ any dehydration method known to those skilled in the art, and this disclosure is not limited thereto.
