Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of clothing processing equipment, and more specifically, to a control method for clothing processing equipment, electronic equipment, and clothing processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] As a common household appliance, clothes dryers are mainly used for drying clothes. With the improvement of living standards, people are increasingly inclined to add fragrance to their clothes while drying them to obtain a better user experience.

[0003] To ensure the fragrance on clothes lasts and is evenly distributed, existing dryers with fragrance-enhancing functions typically continue to enhance the fragrance throughout the drying process. However, prolonged fragrance enhancement can lead to an overpowering scent on the clothes. Additionally, the binding of fragrance molecules with the clothes takes time, and prolonged fragrance enhancement can affect the adhesion of the fragrance, causing it to evaporate prematurely and fail to be retained for long. Furthermore, prolonged fragrance enhancement also wastes fragrance molecules and energy. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a control method, electronic device, and clothing processing equipment to solve the problem that existing dryers with fragrance-enhancing functions in the related art typically continuously enhance the fragrance of clothes throughout the drying process, resulting in excessive fragrance and wasting fragrance molecules and energy.

[0018] In some embodiments, when the weight M1 is within the same preset range, the higher the fragrance of the clothes after drying, the longer the first running time, the second running time, and the third running time.

[0019] When the fragrance level of the clothes is the same after drying, the larger the preset range to which the weight M1 belongs, the longer the first running time, the second running time, and the third running time will be.

[0020] In some embodiments, during the pre-fragrant stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage, the opening of the fragrance outlet is controlled according to the weight M1 and / or according to the fragrance intensity of the garment after drying.

[0021] In some embodiments, when the weight M1 is within the same preset range, the higher the fragrance intensity of the clothes after drying, the larger the opening of the fragrance outlet.

[0022] When the degree of fragrance on the clothes is the same after drying, the larger the preset range to which the weight M1 belongs, the larger the opening of the fragrance outlet.

[0023] In some embodiments, the fragrance-enhancing device has multiple fragrance-enhancing programs; selecting different fragrance-enhancing programs indicates that the degree of fragrance of the clothes after drying is different.

[0024] When the weight M1 is within the same preset range, the area of ​​the opening of the fragrance outlet satisfies: X = N1 / N*X2, where N is the total number of fragrance enhancement programs, N1 is the sequence number of the selected fragrance enhancement program, the larger the sequence number of the fragrance enhancement program used, the stronger the fragrance of the clothes after drying, X is the area of ​​the opening of the fragrance outlet, X2 is the area of ​​the fragrance outlet, N≤N1, X1≤X.

[0025] In some embodiments, the step of controlling the aroma-enhancing device (1) to open the aroma outlet to perform a second operating time aroma-enhancing stage during the drying process, after the pre-aroma stage, includes:

[0026] During the drying stage and after the pre-fragrance stage, after the temperature of the airflow used for drying in the garment processing equipment exceeds a first preset temperature value and remains at that temperature for a first time period, the fragrance-enhancing device is controlled to perform a fragrance-adding stage for a second operating time.

[0027] In some embodiments, during the fragrance application stage, the airflow velocity of the garment processing equipment used for drying is increased.

[0028] According to a second aspect of the present application, an electronic device is provided, including a memory and a controller, wherein the memory is used to store a computer program; and the controller is used to execute the computer program to implement the steps of the control method for the clothing processing device described in any one of the above-described embodiments.

[0029] According to a third aspect of the present application, a garment processing device is provided, the garment processing device having a drying function, the garment processing device having a drying system, a fragrance-enhancing device being provided on the drying airflow path of the drying system, the fragrance-enhancing device having a fragrance outlet that can be opened when the fragrance-enhancing device is running, the garment processing device being used to execute the control method of the garment processing device described in any one of the above, or further including the electronic equipment described above.

[0030] In some embodiments, the flavoring device includes:

[0031] The first fitting is used to store the aromatherapy product, and the aroma outlet is located on the first fitting.

[0032] The second fitting is slidably sleeved on the outer periphery of the first fitting, for closing the fragrance outlet; and

[0033] A driving component is used to drive the first mating component to extend out of the second mating component in order to adjust the opening of the fragrance outlet.

[0034] In some embodiments, the first mating component is a rod body, the rod body having a receiving space for storing aromatherapy products, and the rod wall having through holes for communicating with the receiving space, and multiple through holes being provided at intervals in the circumferential and axial directions of the rod body.

[0037] The solution provided by this invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0038] Through the above technical solution, when the control method of this application is applied to a dryer with a fragrance-enhancing function, during the drying process, the fragrance-enhancing device will enhance the fragrance of the clothes in three stages: a pre-fragrance stage, a fragrance-addition stage, and a fragrance replenishment stage. This ensures that the fragrance level on the clothes is appropriate while avoiding excessive fragrance due to prolonged fragrance enhancement, thus reducing the waste of fragrance molecules and energy. Simultaneously, the binding of fragrance molecules with the clothes requires a certain amount of time. This application, by enhancing the fragrance of the clothes in stages, allows sufficient time for the fragrance molecules to bind with the clothes, making it less likely for the fragrance molecules to evaporate from the clothes. This ensures both the even distribution of fragrance on the clothes and prevents the fragrance from evaporating too quickly after drying and fragrance enhancement, thus guaranteeing the user experience. During the fragrance-addition stage... The higher temperature airflow promotes the evaporation of aroma molecules from the aroma outlet in the aroma-enhancing device 1, making it easier for the inner drum to be filled with aroma molecules. The aroma molecules will be more easily and evenly distributed on the clothes and combine with them. At the same time, during the stabilization stage, the moisture in the clothes will gradually decrease during drying, and the aroma molecules will be more likely to come into direct contact with the clothes. This ensures that the aroma of the clothes is not too strong, while also making it difficult for the aroma molecules to evaporate from the clothes.

[0048] Furthermore, the terms “comprising” and “having”, and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units that are explicitly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not explicitly listed or that are inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0049] Clothes dryers, as a common household appliance, are mainly used for drying clothes. With the improvement of living standards, people are increasingly inclined to add fragrance to their clothes while drying for a better user experience. To ensure the fragrance lasts and is evenly distributed on the clothes, existing dryers with fragrance-enhancing functions usually continuously add fragrance throughout the drying process. However, prolonged fragrance enhancement can lead to an overpowering scent on the clothes. Furthermore, the binding of fragrance molecules with the clothes takes time, and prolonged enhancement can affect the adhesion of the fragrance, causing it to evaporate prematurely and not last. Additionally, prolonged enhancement also wastes fragrance molecules and energy.

[0050] According to the first aspect of the embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a control method for a garment processing device is provided. The garment processing device has a drying function and is equipped with a fragrance-enhancing device 1. The fragrance-enhancing device 1 has a fragrance outlet that can be opened when the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is running. The control method includes:

[0051] Step S100: During the process of controlling the garment processing equipment to execute the drying program, the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance addition stage, and the fragrance replenishment stage are executed sequentially according to time sequence; wherein, during the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance addition stage, and the fragrance replenishment stage, the fragrance enhancement device 1 is controlled to open the fragrance outlet; wherein, during the fragrance addition stage, the temperature in the inner drum of the garment processing equipment is higher than the temperature in the inner drum during the pre-fragrance stage and the fragrance replenishment stage.

[0052] Through the above technical solution, when the control method of this application is applied to a dryer with a fragrance-enhancing function, during the drying process, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 will enhance the fragrance of the clothes in three stages: a pre-fragrance stage, a fragrance-addition stage, and a fragrance replenishment stage. This ensures that the fragrance level on the clothes is appropriate while avoiding excessive fragrance due to prolonged fragrance enhancement, thus reducing the waste of fragrance molecules and energy. Simultaneously, the combination of fragrance molecules and clothes requires a certain amount of time. This application, by enhancing the fragrance of clothes in stages, allows sufficient time for the fragrance molecules to combine with the clothes, making it less likely for the fragrance molecules to evaporate from the clothes. This ensures both the even distribution of fragrance on the clothes and prevents the fragrance from evaporating too quickly after drying and fragrance enhancement, thus guaranteeing the user experience. During the fragrance-addition stage... The higher temperature airflow promotes the evaporation of aroma molecules from the aroma outlet in the aroma-enhancing device 1, making it easier for the inner drum to be filled with aroma molecules. The aroma molecules will be more easily and evenly distributed on the clothes and combine with them. At the same time, during the stabilization stage, the moisture in the clothes will gradually decrease during drying, and the aroma molecules will be more likely to come into direct contact with the clothes. This ensures that the aroma of the clothes is not too strong, while also making it difficult for the aroma molecules to evaporate from the clothes.

[0053] Taking the control method of this application in a clothes dryer as an example, the control method may further include:

[0054] In step S200: At the beginning of the drying stage, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is controlled to open its fragrance outlet to perform a pre-fragrance stage for the first operating time. It should be noted that the drying stage generally has two phases: an initial phase and a stable phase. These two phases are usually determined by the temperature of the airflow used for drying. The initial phase of the drying stage is the period from the start of the drying stage until the airflow temperature remains stable. In the initial phase, the heating efficiency of the heating element gradually increases until it stabilizes, and thus the temperature of the airflow used for drying clothes also gradually increases until it stabilizes. At the beginning of the drying stage, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is controlled to open its fragrance outlet to perform a pre-fragrance stage for the first operating time. Opening the fragrance outlet allows fragrance molecules to enter the inner drum and come into contact with the clothes. During the pre-fragrance stage, because the temperature of the airflow used for drying clothes is relatively low and the moisture content of the clothes is high, the fragrance molecules released from the fragrance outlet will combine with water, making it easier for the fragrance molecules to adhere to the clothes. This ensures that the fragrance of the clothes is not too strong while preventing the fragrance molecules from evaporating from the clothes.

[0055] And / or, in step S300: during the drying stage, and after the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is controlled to open the fragrance outlet to perform the fragrance-addition stage for the second running time; as mentioned above, the fragrance-addition stage is performed after the start stage, that is, the fragrance-addition stage is in the aforementioned stable stage. The period from the end of the start stage until the temperature of the airflow begins to drop is the stable stage of the drying stage. At this time, the heating efficiency of the heating element is stable, and the temperature of the airflow used for drying clothes will remain stable within a set range. At this time, the drying efficiency of the clothes is the highest. The higher temperature airflow will promote the evaporation of fragrance molecules from the fragrance outlet in the fragrance-enhancing device 1, making it easier for the inner cylinder to be filled with fragrance molecules. The fragrance molecules will be more easily and evenly distributed on the clothes and combined with the clothes. At the same time, in the stable stage, the moisture of the clothes will gradually decrease during drying, and the fragrance molecules will be more likely to come into direct contact with the clothes. While ensuring that the fragrance of the clothes is not too strong, the fragrance molecules are not easy to evaporate from the clothes.

[0056] And / or, in step S400: after the drying stage is performed, the clothing handling equipment is controlled to perform the cooling stage; the cooling stage is performed after the drying stage is completed. At this time, the heating element is turned off and the fan continues to run. The airflow generated by the fan will carry away the heat attached to the dried clothes, so that the temperature of the clothes is lowered, making it easier for the user to take the clothes out of the inner drum.

[0057] And / or, in step S500: During the cooling stage, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is controlled to open the fragrance outlet to perform the fragrance replenishment stage of the third operating time. During the fragrance replenishment stage, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 opens the fragrance outlet, allowing fragrance molecules to enter the inner drum and come into contact with the clothing. During the pre-fragrance stage and the fragrance-adding stage, the fragrance molecules already attached to the clothing are easily volatilized due to the contact between the clothing and the high-temperature airflow. During the fragrance replenishment stage, the volatilized fragrance molecules on the clothing can be replenished to ensure the quantity of fragrance molecules attached to the clothing. Through the fragrance replenishment stage, the fragrance of the clothing is not too strong, while the fragrance molecules are not easily volatilized from the clothing.

[0058] The control method may also include: obtaining the weight M1 of the clothes to be dried. By obtaining the weight M1, the clothing processing equipment can dynamically adjust the fragrance enhancement strategy according to the weight of the clothes, ensuring that the fragrance enhancement effect better meets user needs. For example, when the total amount of clothes is large, more fragrance molecules are needed to ensure uniform fragrance intensity on each garment; conversely, when the total amount of clothes is small, only a small number of fragrance molecules are needed to ensure uniform fragrance intensity on each garment. Allowing the fragrance enhancement stage to be based on the weight M1 of the clothes to be dried can reduce unnecessary resource consumption and improve the user experience.

[0059] In some embodiments, step 200 may include step S201: obtaining the weight M1 of the clothes to be dried; at the beginning of the drying stage, controlling the fragrance-enhancing device 1 to open the fragrance outlet to perform a pre-fragrance stage for a first operating time based on the weight M1 of the clothes to be dried and the fragrance intensity of the dried clothes; step 300 may include step S301: during the drying stage, and after performing the pre-fragrance stage, controlling the fragrance-enhancing device 1 to open the fragrance outlet to perform a fragrance-adding stage for a second operating time based on the weight M1 and the fragrance intensity of the dried clothes; step 500 may include step S501: during the cooling stage, controlling the fragrance-enhancing device 1 to open the fragrance outlet to perform a fragrance-replenishing stage for a third operating time based on the weight M1 and the fragrance intensity of the dried clothes. By adjusting the running time of the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage according to the weight M1 of the garment and the fragrance intensity after drying, the distribution and duration of the fragrance can be more precisely controlled. This ensures that the fragrance of the garment is not too strong while preventing fragrance molecules from evaporating from the garment. Furthermore, this adjustment method ensures that the fragrance intensity of the garment after drying meets the user's expectations, improving the user experience. Simultaneously, adjusting the fragrance-adding time according to the weight and fragrance intensity of the garment reduces unnecessary waste of fragrance molecules and improves the efficiency of the fragrance-adding process.

[0060] In step S301, in some embodiments, when the weight M1 falls within the same preset range, the higher the aroma intensity of the dried clothing, the longer the first, second, and third running times. When the weight M1 falls within the same preset range, the aroma intensity of the dried clothing is positively correlated with the running times of the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage. A higher aroma intensity indicates more aroma molecules are needed during the fragrance-enhancing process, thus requiring longer running times for the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage to ensure sufficient aroma molecules can bind with the clothing during the fragrance-enhancing process. When the aroma intensity of the dried clothing is the same, the larger the preset range to which the weight M1 falls, the longer the first, second, and third running times. When the fragrance intensity of dried garments is the same, there is a positive correlation between the weight M1 and the running time of the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage. The more garments there are, the higher the weight M1, and the more fragrance molecules are needed during the fragrance-adding process. Therefore, it is necessary to increase the running time of the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage to ensure that enough fragrance molecules can bind with the garments during the fragrance-adding process. By adjusting the running time of the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage according to the garment weight M1 and the fragrance intensity of the dried garments, the distribution and duration of the fragrance can be more precisely controlled. This ensures that the fragrance of the garments is not too strong while preventing fragrance molecules from evaporating from the garments. Furthermore, this adjustment method ensures that the fragrance intensity of the dried garments meets the user's expectations, improving the user experience. At the same time, adjusting the fragrance-adding time according to the garment weight and fragrance intensity can reduce unnecessary waste of fragrance molecules and improve the efficiency of the fragrance-adding process.

[0061] The aforementioned weight M1 falls within a preset range, which can be adapted to the garment processing equipment. Multiple preset ranges can be set for weight M1. The larger the preset range of weight M1, the more and heavier the garments. In order to ensure the fragrance of the garments, more fragrance molecules will be required after drying.

[0062] Taking a washing machine with drying and fragrance-enhancing functions as an example, different washing machines can carry different weights of clothes. When the washing machine is smaller, it can carry a smaller weight of clothes, so the number of preset ranges is less and the value of the preset range is also smaller. When the washing machine is larger, it can carry a larger weight of clothes, so the number of preset ranges is more and the value of the preset range is also larger. This allows the control method in this application to control the fragrance level of the clothes more precisely.

[0063] It should be noted that when adjusting the running time of the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage, the running time of each stage must be adjusted simultaneously. That is, the first, second, and third running times must be adjusted concurrently. This ensures that the fragrance-enhancing effect on the clothing is increased in all three stages. Generally, when the drying and cooling stages of the clothing treatment equipment are sufficiently long, the running times of the pre-fragrance stage, the fragrance-adding stage, and the fragrance-replenishing stage—that is, the first, second, and third running times—can be the same, for example, all 5 minutes. This ensures the fragrance-enhancing effect on the clothing in all three stages while preventing any stage from being too short, thus failing to achieve the desired fragrance enhancement effect.

[0064] The control method described in this application, during the pre-fragranting, fragrance-adding, and fragrance-replenishing stages, can further control the opening of the fragrance outlet based on the weight M1 and / or the fragrance intensity of the dried garments. Controlling the opening of the fragrance outlet controls the rate at which fragrance molecules evaporate from the fragrance-enhancing device 1, and further, adjusts the fragrance-enhancing effect of the device 1. By controlling the opening of the fragrance outlet based on the garment weight M1 and / or the fragrance intensity of the dried garments, the release amount of fragrance molecules in the fragrance-enhancing device 1 can be more precisely controlled. This ensures that garments of different weights and with different fragrance intensities achieve the desired fragrance intensity after drying. It also improves the versatility of the control method in this application. Whenever a user dries garments of different weights or has different fragrance requirements, the control method of this application can adjust the fragrance-enhancing effect of the fragrance-enhancing device 1 based on the garment weight M1 and / or the fragrance intensity of the dried garments. This ensures that the fragrance intensity of the garments meets the user's needs and guarantees a positive user experience.

[0065] Within a preset range, when the weight M1 is within the same range, the higher the aroma intensity of the dried clothing, the larger the opening of the fragrance outlet can be. Similarly, when the aroma intensity of the dried clothing is the same, the wider the preset range of weight M1, the larger the opening of the fragrance outlet can be. Controlling the opening of the fragrance outlet controls the rate at which aroma molecules evaporate from the fragrance-enhancing device 1. A larger opening indicates that aroma molecules evaporate more easily from the device and bind to the clothing. Higher aroma intensity after drying means more aroma molecules need to bind to the clothing. Heavier clothing requires more aroma molecules to bind evenly to ensure uniform fragrance distribution. By adjusting the opening of the fragrance outlet based on the clothing weight M1 and aroma intensity, the release of aroma molecules can be better matched to the actual needs of the clothing, improving the even distribution of aroma. Simultaneously, adjusting the opening helps reduce aroma molecule waste, improving the efficiency of the fragrance-enhancing process. This ensures that the needs of clothing of different weights and aroma intensities are met, enhancing the user experience.

[0066] Specifically, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 has multiple fragrance-enhancing programs. Selecting different programs results in varying degrees of fragrance intensity for the dried clothes. When the weight M1 falls within the same preset range, the area of ​​the fragrance outlet opening satisfies: X = N1 / N*X2, where N is the total number of fragrance-enhancing programs, N1 is the sequence number of the selected program (the higher the program number, the stronger the fragrance intensity of the dried clothes), X is the area of ​​the fragrance outlet opening, X2 is the area of ​​the fragrance outlet opening, N≤N1, and X1≤X. For example, when there are five fragrance-enhancing programs, the fragrance intensity of the dried clothes increases sequentially from the first to the fifth program. When the user selects the third program, the selected program number is 3, and the area of ​​the fragrance outlet opening is three-fifths the area of ​​the fragrance outlet. Thus, the higher the program number selected by the user, the larger the opening of the fragrance outlet, and the stronger the fragrance intensity of the dried clothes. Meanwhile, the opening of the fragrance outlet increases evenly according to the fragrance enhancement program, further ensuring the user experience and avoiding the problem that adjacent fragrance enhancement programs will cause too large a difference in the fragrance intensity of the clothes after drying, making it difficult for users to adjust precisely and affecting the user experience.

[0067] It should be noted that the area of ​​the fragrance outlet and the area of ​​its opening can refer to the actual area of ​​the fragrance outlet and the actual area of ​​its opening, or it can refer to the projected area of ​​the fragrance outlet and its opening on the same projection plane. The selection of the above areas can be made according to the structural adaptability of the fragrance-enhancing device 1. When the structure of the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is relatively complex and the shape of the fragrance outlet is relatively complex, it will be difficult to calculate the actual area of ​​the fragrance outlet. In this case, the projected area of ​​the fragrance outlet on a projection plane can be calculated to facilitate the calculation of the area of ​​the fragrance outlet and the area of ​​its opening.

[0068] In the drying process, after the pre-fragrance stage, controlling the fragrance-enhancing device 1 to open the fragrance outlet to execute the fragrance-adding stage for the second running time may include: after the pre-fragrance stage in the drying stage, when the temperature of the airflow used for drying in the garment processing equipment exceeds the first preset temperature value and remains at that temperature for a first time period, controlling the fragrance-enhancing device 1 to execute the fragrance-adding stage for the second running time. When the temperature of the airflow used for drying in the garment processing equipment exceeds the first preset temperature value and remains at that temperature for a first time period, it indicates that the airflow temperature has remained stable within a certain preset range during the drying process, and the airflow temperature is sufficiently suitable. This indicates that the drying stage has entered a stable stage, at which point the drying efficiency for the garments is highest. The higher temperature airflow promotes the evaporation of fragrance molecules from the fragrance outlet in the fragrance-enhancing device 1, facilitating the filling of the inner drum with fragrance molecules. The fragrance molecules are more easily and evenly distributed onto the garments and bind to them. Simultaneously, in the stable stage, the moisture content of the garments gradually decreases during drying, and the fragrance molecules are more likely to come into direct contact with the garments. This ensures that the fragrance of the garments is not too strong while preventing the fragrance molecules from easily evaporating from the garments. It can ensure that the aroma is released under suitable temperature conditions, improve the adhesion of the aroma, help prolong the duration of the aroma, and reduce unnecessary energy consumption.

[0069] During the fragrance addition stage, the airflow velocity of the garment processing equipment used for drying can be increased. Increasing the airflow velocity is based on the existing drying airflow velocity, thus ensuring effective drying while accelerating the airflow and further promoting the volatilization of fragrance molecules. For example, when no fragrance is added, the gas velocity is Am / s during the stable drying stage. During the fragrance addition stage, the airflow velocity can be increased from Am / s; for instance, it can become B m / s, where A < B.

[0070] According to a second aspect of the embodiments of this application, an electronic device is provided, including a memory and a controller. The memory is used to store a computer program; the controller is used to execute the steps of the computer program to implement the control method of the garment processing device according to any of the above embodiments. The electronic device has all the beneficial effects of the above-described control method of the garment processing device, which will not be elaborated here.

[0071] According to a third aspect of the embodiments of this application, a garment processing device is provided, such as... Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the garment processing equipment has a drying function and is equipped with a drying system. A fragrance-enhancing device 1 is provided on the drying airflow path of the drying system. The fragrance-enhancing device 1 has a fragrance outlet that can be opened when the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is running. The garment processing equipment is used to execute the control method of the garment processing equipment in any of the above embodiments, or may also include the above-mentioned electronic equipment. The garment processing equipment has all the beneficial effects of the above-mentioned control method of the garment processing equipment, which will not be repeated here.

[0072] In some embodiments, the fragrance-enhancing device 1 may include a first fitting member 11, a second fitting member 12, and a driving member 13: the first fitting member 11 is used to store the fragrance product, and the fragrance outlet is located on the first fitting member 11; the second fitting member 12 is slidably fitted onto the outer periphery of the first fitting member 11 to close the fragrance outlet; and the driving member 13 is used to drive the first fitting member 11 to extend out of the second fitting member 12 to adjust the opening of the fragrance outlet. By using the fragrance-enhancing device 1 composed of the first fitting member 11, the second fitting member 12, and the driving member 13, the length of the first fitting member 11 extending out of the second fitting member 12 can be adjusted, allowing the opening of the fragrance outlet to be precisely adjusted. Furthermore, when the fragrance product needs to be replaced, the first fitting member 11 can be directly removed from the second fitting member 12, and the fragrance product inside the first fitting member 11 can be replaced, making the fragrance-enhancing device 1 more convenient to use.

[0073] The first fitting component 11 can be a rod body, with a space inside the rod for storing fragrance products. Through holes 14 are formed on the rod wall to communicate with this space. Multiple through holes 14 are spaced apart circumferentially and axially along the rod body. The even distribution of these through holes 14 ensures their uniformity. These through holes 14 together form the fragrance outlet. The number of through holes 14 extending beyond the second fitting component 12 by adjusting the length of the first fitting component 11 can be adjusted, and this number determines the opening of the fragrance outlet. In other words, adjusting the length of the first fitting component 11 extending beyond the second fitting component 12 adjusts the opening of the fragrance outlet. Simultaneously, the uniform distribution of the through holes 14 facilitates the diffusion of fragrance molecules, resulting in more even diffusion and improved contact efficiency between the fragrance molecules and the clothing.

[0074] In some embodiments, the second mating member 12 can be a sleeve, and the driving member 13 can be a telescopic rod. The inner wall of the sleeve has a first protrusion 15 extending toward the outer wall of the rod, and the outer wall of the rod has a second protrusion 16 extending toward the inner wall of the sleeve. The fragrance-enhancing device 1 also includes an elastic member 17, which is sleeved on the rod and connected to the first protrusion 15 and the second protrusion 16 respectively. The first protrusion 15 and the second protrusion 16 can control the maximum distance the rod extends from the sleeve, and also prevent the fragrance-enhancing device 1 from separating from the sleeve during use, thus avoiding the problem of fragrance molecules continuously evaporating from the fragrance-enhancing device 1. Simultaneously, the elastic member 17, sleeved on the rod and connected to the first protrusion 15 and the second protrusion 16 respectively, makes the rod more stable during movement. Furthermore, the elastic member 17 can also prevent the fragrance-enhancing device 1 from separating from the sleeve during use. Meanwhile, when the driving component 13 fails, the elastic component 17 can assist the rod body in resetting. The elastic force of the elastic component 17 will drive the rod body to move, causing the fragrance-enhancing device 1 to close the fragrance outlet.

[0075] In some embodiments, the garment processing equipment may also be equipped with a filter device 2 for filtering lint from the drying airflow path of the drying system, and the fragrance-enhancing device 1 can be connected to the filter device 2. Generally, to save energy, the drying airflow circulates within the garment processing equipment. Simultaneously, the garment processing equipment typically has a filter device 2 for filtering lint from the drying airflow path. The filter device 2 needs to be detachably installed within the garment processing equipment to ensure that users can clean it. When the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is connected to the filter device 2, the fragrance product on the fragrance-enhancing device 1 can be directly replaced while the user is cleaning the filter device 2, making the fragrance-enhancing device 1 more convenient to use. Furthermore, since the drying airflow circulates within the garment processing equipment, even when the fragrance-enhancing device 1 is connected to the filter device 2, the airflow emitted by the fragrance-enhancing device 1 will still enter the inner drum with the airflow, further saving energy while maintaining the fragrance level of the garments.

[0076] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this application, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this application.
