[0049] The hair debris collected by the filter element in the clothing treatment device will continue to accumulate, and the operation mode of the clothing treatment device cannot automatically remove the hair debris attached to the filter element, so the user is required to take out the filter element and clean it regularly. Since the filter element is arranged inside the clothing treatment device, the process of the user taking out the filter element is time-consuming and laborious, which increases the difficulty of the user's operation, reduces the washing efficiency, and further reduces the user's use experience
[0050] Based on the above background, the following embodiments are proposed:
[0051] Embodiment 1:
[0052] like Figure 1-7 As shown, this embodiment provides a hair removal control method for a clothes processing device, wherein a filter assembly 130 is rotatably arranged in a flow channel 100 of the clothes processing device, and the filter assembly 130 is constructed as a spherical shell; the control method includes: a cleaning mode;
[0053] The cleaning mode includes: controlling a first water flow to flow in the flow channel 100 along a first direction toward the filter assembly 130 to impact the filter assembly 130 , so as to rotate the filter assembly 130 .
[0054] In this embodiment, if Figure 1-7 As shown, the depilatory control method is used in a clothing processing device, and a filter assembly 130 capable of rotating by force is provided in the flow channel 100 of the clothing processing device. In the cleaning mode of the depilatory control method, when the first water flow flows through the filter assembly 130, a first water flow impact is generated on the filter assembly 130, and the rotation of the filter assembly 130 in the flow channel 100 can also accelerate the circulation of the first water flow, and the first water flow passing through the filter assembly 130 can directly flush and take away the depilatory attached to the filter assembly 130, and the depilatory can be deposits such as ash, fiber and tiny impurities. The first water flow can be household tap water from the faucet, or it can be washing water that is recycled after washing in the inner drum of the clothing processing device.
[0055] The dander removal control method controls the first water flow to flow through the filter component 130 so that the filter component can rotate under the impact force of the first water flow. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter component 130 is more conducive to throwing out dander and other impurities attached to the filter component 130 and peeling off the surface of the filter component 130, thereby realizing automatic cleaning of the filter component 130, thereby greatly reducing the maintenance frequency of the user's regular manual cleaning of the filter component 130, simplifying the maintenance process, saving usage time, and ensuring that the clothing processing equipment can operate stably for a long time, and can not only clean the dander in the clothing processing equipment in time, but also will not cause damage to the fan of the clothing processing equipment, thereby significantly improving the overall performance of the washing and drying machine, and improving the user experience and energy efficiency of the clothing processing equipment, and reducing operating costs.
[0056] The filter component 130 is constructed as a spherical shell, which can rotate when impacted by water flow. The water flow contacts half of the shell surface of the filter component 130 of the spherical shell, and the flow area is large. The rotation of the filter component 130 will generate rotation in the flow channel 110, which can enhance the fluidity of the fluid, thereby effectively enhancing the fluidity of the water flow, with a large flow rate and high filtration efficiency. During the rotation process, the filter component 130 can not only filter the water flow, but also remove impurities such as hair on its surface under the action of centrifugal force, thereby avoiding blockage of the main flow surface. At the same time, it has a backwashing effect on the hair and other impurities attached to the surface of the filter component 130 facing away from the water flow, thereby effectively removing the hair and other impurities on the side facing away from the water flow.
[0057] This dandruff removal control method reflects the focus on environmental protection, intelligence and user experience in modern home appliance design, and greatly improves the comfort and convenience of home life.
[0058] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 2-7 As shown, the control method further includes: a hair removal mode, the hair removal mode being executed before the cleaning mode;
[0059] The hair removal mode includes: controlling the airflow in the flow channel 100 to flow toward the filter assembly 130 along the second direction to impact the filter assembly 130, so as to rotate the filter assembly 130;
[0060] Wherein, the airflow is drying air generated when the clothes processing equipment is in operation.
[0061] In this embodiment, after the airflow is controlled to flow through the filter assembly 130 in the flow channel 100, the first water flow flows through the filter assembly 130 in the flow channel 100. When the airflow, that is, the drying airflow of the clothes processing equipment flows through the filter assembly 130, an unbalanced force is generated on the surface of the filter assembly 130, thereby pushing the filter assembly 130 to rotate in the flow channel 100. The filter assembly 130 covers the flow surface of the flow channel 100. When the airflow flows through the filter assembly 130, the hair debris carried by the airflow will be captured and collected by the filter assembly 130, and a vortex can be formed by the rotation of the filter assembly 130, thereby accelerating the flow rate of the airflow and enhancing the passability of the airflow. At the same time, the filter assembly 130 in the rotating state Under the action of centrifugal force, most of the hair debris captured by the filter component 130 will fall directly off the surface of the filter component 130 or adhere to the surrounding side of the filter component, thereby continuously providing a more unobstructed main flow surface for the filter component 130. After the clothes processing equipment is finished drying, the first water flow is controlled to flow through the filter component 130, and the filter component can be rotated under the impact force of the first water flow. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter component 130 is more conducive to throwing out the hair debris and other impurities attached to the filter component 130 and peeling off the surface of the filter component 130, thereby realizing automatic cleaning of the filter component 130, thereby greatly reducing the maintenance frequency of users' regular manual cleaning of the filter component 130, simplifying the maintenance process, and saving usage time.
[0062] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 1-6 As shown, the first direction and the second direction are opposite.
[0063] Preferably, the first direction is a direction from top to bottom in the flow channel 100 , and the second direction is a direction from bottom to top in the flow channel 100 .
[0064] In this embodiment, Figure 1-6As shown, in the depilatory control method, controlling the first water flow or air flow to flow through the filter assembly 130 in the flow channel 100 specifically includes controlling the air flow to flow through the filter assembly 130 from bottom to top in the flow channel 100 and controlling the first water flow to flow through the filter assembly 130 from top to bottom in the flow channel 100. When the air flow flows through the filter assembly 130 from bottom to top, the air flow first contacts the lower surface of the filter assembly 130 and pushes the filter assembly 130 to rotate. When the filter assembly 130 rotates, it captures and collects depilatory material carried in the air flow within the flow surface of the flow channel 100, so that the depilatory material is adsorbed on the lower surface of the filter assembly 130. When the first water flow flows through the filter assembly 130 from top to bottom, the first water flow pushes the filter assembly 130 to rotate and soaks the depilatory material attached to the filter assembly 130. After being soaked, the depilatory material attached to the filter assembly 130 increases. Weight, under the action of the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter component 130, the scouring force of the first water flow and gravity, the hair debris can be peeled off from the surface of the filter component 130, and the first water flow will be discharged from the bottom of the flow channel 100 after passing through the filter component 130 due to gravity. Therefore, the hair debris will leave the filter component 130 together with the first water flow and flow to the drainage area below the flow channel 100. When the drainage system inside the clothing processing equipment is started, the hair debris captured and collected by the filter element will be completely discharged from the clothing processing equipment together with the washing waste water.
[0065] By controlling the airflow to flow from bottom to top through the filter assembly 130 in the flow channel 100 and controlling the first water flow to flow from top to bottom through the filter assembly 130 in the flow channel 100, the circulation efficiency of the airflow and the first water flow in the flow channel 100 can be increased, so that the filter assembly 130 will not cause resistance to air flow when rotating with the airflow, and the hair debris attached to the filter assembly 130 can leave the filter assembly 130 together with the first water flow under the action of the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter assembly 130 and gravity and flow to the drainage area below the flow channel 100. When the drainage system inside the clothing processing equipment is started, the hair debris captured and collected by the filter element will be completely discharged out of the clothing processing equipment together with the washing waste water, without the need for the user to intervene through manual operation, thereby realizing efficient automatic cleaning of the filter element.
[0066] The filter assembly 130 is arranged between the water inlet and the air inlet of the flow channel 100. When the airflow passes through the filter assembly 130 from bottom to top, it can push the filter assembly 130 so that the filter assembly 130 can rotate in the flow channel 110. The airflow contacts half of the shell surface of the filter assembly of the spherical shell, and the contact area is large. The rotation of the filter assembly 130 can also generate a rotating airflow in the flow channel 110, which can enhance the fluidity of the fluid, thereby effectively enhancing the fluidity of the airflow. The flow rate is large and the filtration efficiency is high. During the rotation process, the filter assembly 130 can not only filter the airflow, but also remove impurities such as hair on its surface under the action of centrifugal force, thereby avoiding blockage of the main flow surface. The same water flow can impact the filter assembly 130 from top to bottom under the action of gravity, causing it to rotate. The water flow contacts half of the shell surface of the filter assembly of the spherical shell, and the flow area is large. The rotation of the filter assembly will also generate a rotating water flow in the flow channel, which can enhance the fluidity of the fluid, thereby effectively enhancing the fluidity of the water flow, with a large flow rate and a high filtration efficiency. During the rotation process, the filter assembly 130 can not only filter the water flow, but also remove impurities such as hair on its surface under the action of centrifugal force, thereby avoiding blockage of the main flow surface. At the same time, it can backwash impurities such as hair attached to the surface of the filter assembly 130 facing away from the water flow.
[0067] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 3-7 As shown,
[0068] The control method further includes: a flushing mode, wherein the flushing mode is performed simultaneously with the cleaning mode or the flushing mode is performed after the cleaning mode;
[0069] The flushing mode includes: controlling the second water flow to flow in the flow channel 100 along the third direction toward the filter assembly 130 to impact the filter assembly 130, so that the filter assembly 130 rotates;
[0070] The minimum angle formed between the third direction and the central axis of the flow channel 100 is β, wherein 15°≤β≤60°.
[0071] In this embodiment, the second water flow may be a high-pressure water flow. In the cleaning mode, the filter assembly 130 is flushed with the second water flow at the same time, and the flushing direction is the third direction, such as Figure 4As shown, the minimum angle with the central axis of the flow channel 100 is between 15° and 60°, which makes it easier for the filter assembly 130 to rotate under the impact, thereby improving the self-cleaning effect of the filter assembly 130. When the clothes processing device is operated in the washing mode, the first water flow flows in from the water inlet of the flow channel 100. The first water flow can directly impact the upper surface of the filter assembly 130 installed in the water inlet area through precise guidance, so that the filter assembly 130 can start to rotate under the impetus of the water flow, and at the same time, the hair debris attached to the upper surface of the filter assembly 130 is washed away, so that it is peeled off from the upper surface of the filter assembly 130 and flows to the bottom of the flow channel 100. During the rotation of the filter assembly 130, the hair debris attached to the filter assembly 130 leaves the filter assembly 130 together with the first water flow under the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter assembly 130 and the action of gravity and flows to the area to be discharged below the flow channel 100.
[0072] By setting the first water flow as the water inlet when the laundry processing device starts the washing program, the hair debris attached to the upper and lower surfaces of the filter component 130 can be cleaned simultaneously to prevent the hair debris from accumulating inside the laundry processing device, thereby keeping the flow channel 100 unobstructed and clean.
[0073] Preferably, the impact force of the second water flow on the filter assembly 130 is greater than the impact force of the first water flow on the filter assembly 130. The impact force of the second water flow on the filter assembly 130 is set to be greater than the impact force of the first water flow on the filter assembly 130. When the filter assembly 130 is in a normal working state, the impact force of the second water flow on the filter assembly 130 can accelerate the rotation of the filter assembly 130, increase the centrifugal force generated by the filter assembly 130, so that the filter assembly 130 can clean the hair attached to its surface more quickly and more comprehensively. When there are too many hairs attached to the surface of the filter assembly 130, under the action of rotation resistance such as gravity and relative friction and when the impact force of the first water flow on the filter assembly 130 is insufficient, the rotation speed of the filter assembly 130 will decrease, and the centrifugal force generated by its rotation will also decrease accordingly, and at this time, the filter assembly 130 cannot quickly peel the hairs from its surface. By making the impact force of the second water flow on the filter assembly 130 greater than the impact force of the first water flow on the filter assembly 130, the impact force of the second water flow on the filter assembly 130 and the impact force of the first water flow on the filter assembly 130 can overcome the rotational resistance of the filter assembly 130, so that the filter assembly 130 can resume rapid rotation, and the debris attached to the filter assembly 130 can leave the filter assembly 130 together with the first water flow under the action of the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter assembly 130 and gravity, and flow to the discharge area below the flow channel 100.
[0074] Preferably, the flow rate of the second water flow can be set to be greater than the flow rate of the first water flow, the flow rate of the second water flow can be set to be greater than the flow rate of the first water flow, or the flow rate and flow rate of the second water flow can be set to be greater than the flow rate and flow rate of the first water flow at the same time, so as to overcome the rotational resistance of the filter assembly 130.
[0075] By setting the impact force of the second water flow on the filter component 130 to be greater than the impact force of the first water flow on the filter component 130, the filter component 130 can clean the hair debris attached to its surface more quickly and comprehensively. It can also enable the filter component 130 to increase the centrifugal force to make the excess hair debris detach from the surface of the filter component 130 and be discharged when faced with the adsorption of excessive hair debris, thereby significantly improving the automatic cleaning efficiency of the clothing processing equipment and the overall performance of the clothing processing equipment.
[0076] Embodiment 2:
[0077] like Figure 3-7 As shown, this embodiment provides a filter assembly 130, and the filter assembly 130 is applied to the hair removal control method of any implementation method in the above-mentioned embodiment 1.
[0078] In this embodiment, Figure 3-7 As shown, since the filter component 130 includes the dander removal control method implemented in any of the above-mentioned embodiments, the filter component 130 has all the beneficial effects of the dander removal control method implemented in any of the above-mentioned embodiments.
[0079] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the filtering component 130 includes:
[0080] At least two filter elements, the at least two filter elements include a first filter element 132 and a second filter element 136, the first filter element 132 is constructed as a shell with a first filter hole 134, the second filter element 136 is constructed as a shell with a second filter hole 138, the second filter element 136 is located on the inner side of the first filter element 132 and forms a double-layer spherical shell filtering structure with the first filter element 132, and the aperture of the second filter hole 138 is smaller than the aperture of the first filter hole 134.
[0081] In this embodiment, if Figure 3-6As shown, the filter assembly 130 includes at least two filter elements, including a first filter element 132 and a second filter element 136. The first filter element 132 is constructed as a shell having a first filter hole 134. When water or air flows through the filter assembly 130, it will first contact the shell, and then flow into the shell through the first filter hole 134 on the shell. The first filter element 132 can effectively capture and collect larger hair debris in the water or air flow. The larger hair debris is usually common hair, paper scraps and other larger particles. These larger hair debris are often common in the home environment. If they directly enter the interior of the clothing processing device without being processed, they may not only disrupt the normal operation of the clothing processing device, but also may affect the final clothing washing and drying effects. The second filter element 136 is constructed as a shell with a second filter hole 138. The second filter element 136 is located inside the first filter element 132. The first filter element 132 can cover the second filter element 136. The aperture of the second filter hole 138 is smaller than that of the first filter hole 134, and can intercept small hair in the air. Small hair is usually fine pollutants such as dust and particles that are difficult to detect. These small hairs are easy to be ignored due to their small size. However, for the long-term operation of the clothing processing device, the accumulation of small hairs may also cause the flow channel 100 to be blocked, affecting the operating efficiency of the fan, thereby increasing the energy consumption and shortening the life of the clothing processing device. When the water flow or air flow flows through the first filter element 132, it will flow to the second filter element 136, so that the small hair in the water flow or air flow is captured and collected by the second filter element 136, and the water flow or air flow after multiple filtrations flows into the inner drum.
[0082] Preferably, the first filter element 132 may be made of stainless steel, and the second filter element 136 may be made of nylon or other polyester materials.
[0083] By making the first filter 132 cover the second filter 136, and making the aperture of the second filter hole 138 smaller than the aperture of the first filter hole 134, the water flow or air flow first flows through the first filter 132 and then flows through the second filter 136, so that the larger hair and smaller hair in the water flow or air flow can be captured and collected respectively. It can reduce the possibility of hair, paper scraps and other larger particles entering the interior of the clothing processing device, avoid the performance degradation and potential safety hazards caused by the fan overload, and form a high-efficiency interception of fine pollutants such as dust and particles, thereby preventing them from further damaging the interior of the washing and drying machine, and also create a cleaner and healthier laundry environment for users. The filter assembly 130 with double-layer filtering protection is arranged in the flow channel 100, so that the clothing processing device can provide high-quality washing and drying services more stably, maximize the service life of the clothing processing device, and also provide strong support for modern families pursuing a healthy and environmentally friendly lifestyle.
[0084] Preferably, Figure 3-6 As shown, by configuring the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 as spherical shells, the resistance generated by the filter elements in the flow channel 100 can be reduced, allowing water and air to flow through the filter assembly 130 at a faster flow rate, thereby taking into account both the flow performance and the filtering performance of the flow channel 100.
[0085] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the distance between the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 is smaller than the aperture of the first filter hole 134 .
[0086] In this embodiment, if Figure 6 , 7 As shown, by setting the distance between the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 to be smaller than the aperture of the first filter hole 134, larger debris can be collected on the surface of the first filter element 132, thereby reducing the risk of larger debris entering the gap between the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 and blocking the second filter hole 138 through accumulation, thereby maintaining the filtering effect of the second filter element 136.
[0087] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the outer wall of the second filter element 136 is in contact with the inner wall of the first filter element 132 .
[0088] In this embodiment, if Figure 3-4 As shown, by abutting the outer wall of the second filter element 136 against the inner wall of the first filter element 132, there is no gap between the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136, thereby preventing larger and smaller hair debris from remaining between the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 to breed bacteria and other pollutants, thereby improving the cleanliness of the water flow and air flow flowing into the inner cylinder, thereby further improving the cleanliness of the flow channel 100.
[0089] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the distance between the first filter element 132 and the flow channel 100 is greater than the aperture of the first filter hole 134 .
[0090] In this embodiment, since the filter element can rotate in the flow channel 100, there is a certain gap between the first filter element 132 and the flow channel 100. The distance of this gap is set to be larger than the aperture of the first filter hole 134, so that when larger and smaller hair debris leave the surface of the filter assembly 130 under the action of water flow and gravity, they can be discharged downward from the gap between the first filter element 132 and the flow channel 100.
[0091] By setting the distance between the first filter element 132 and the flow channel 100 to be larger than the aperture of the first filter element 132 , larger and smaller hair debris can be easily removed from the surface of the filter assembly 130 and discharged downward, thereby achieving automatic cleaning of the filter assembly 130 .
[0092] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 3-7 As shown, the filter assembly 130 also includes:
[0093] The support portion 120 includes:
[0094] A connecting rod 122, the connecting rod 122 is disposed in the flow channel 100;
[0095] The shaft assembly 124 has one end connected to the connecting rod 122 and the other end rotatably connected to the first filter element 132 and / or the second filter element 136 .
[0096] In this embodiment, if Figure 2-6 As shown, the filter assembly 130 also includes a support portion 120, and the support portion 120 includes a connecting rod 122 and an axis assembly 124. The connecting rod 122 is arranged on the inner wall of the flow channel 100, and is used to lift or support the filter assembly 130. The axis assembly 124 is used to connect the filter assembly 130 to the connecting rod 122. One end of the axis assembly 124 is connected to the connecting rod 122, and the other end of the axis assembly 124 is rotatably connected to the first filter element 132, so that the first filter element 132 can rotate relative to the connecting rod 122.
[0097] Preferably, when the outer wall of the second filter element 136 is abutted against the inner wall of the first filter element 132, the first filter element 132 can drive the second filter element 136 to rotate, and when there is a gap between the second filter element 136 and the first filter element 132, the second filter element 136 is also rotatably connected to the other end of the shaft assembly 124, so that the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 can rotate independently relative to the connecting rod 122.
[0098] By providing the connecting rod 122 and the shaft assembly 124, the movement range of the filter assembly 130 can be limited, so that the filter assembly 130 remains within the correct range when rotating in the flow channel 100, reducing the risk of the filter assembly 130 moving along the axis of the flow channel 100, thereby allowing the filter assembly 130 to operate stably for a long time.
[0099] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 4-7 As shown, the shaft assembly 124 includes:
[0100] A rotating shaft 126, one end of which is connected to the connecting rod 122, and the other end of which is rotatably connected to the first filter element 132 and / or the second filter element 136;
[0101] The bearing 128 is disposed between the rotating shaft 126 and the connecting rod 122 .
[0102] In this embodiment, if Figure 4-7 As shown, the shaft assembly 124 includes a rotating shaft 126 and a bearing 128. One end of the rotating shaft 126 is connected to the connecting rod 122, and the other end of the rotating shaft 126 is rotatably connected to the first filter element 132, so that the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 are connected to the connecting rod 122. When water or air flows through the filter assembly 130, the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 can rotate around the rotating shaft 126. The bearing 128 is arranged between the rotating shaft 126 and the connecting rod 122, so that the bearing 128 is sleeved on one end of the rotating shaft 126 and the connecting rod 122 that are rotatably connected, and the outer peripheral surface of the bearing 128 is in contact with the connecting rod 122, so that the bearing 128 is located between the rotating shaft 126 and the connecting rod 122, thereby reducing the friction between the connecting rod 122 and the rotating shaft 126.
[0103] The other end of the rotating shaft 126 can also be rotatably connected to the second filter element 136, and the second filter element 136 can also be rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 126. A bearing 128 is also sleeved on the end of the rotating shaft 126 that is rotatably connected to the second filter element 136, and the outer peripheral surface of the bearing 128 is in contact with the second filter element 136, so that the bearing 128 is located between the rotating shaft 126 and the second filter element 136, which can further reduce the friction between the filter assembly 130 and the rotating shaft 126, and further increase the centrifugal force generated by the filter assembly 130 during rotation, thereby further improving the self-cleaning efficiency of the filter assembly 130.
[0104] The other end of the rotating shaft 126 can also be rotatably connected to the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136 at the same time. A bearing 128 is provided at one end of the rotating shaft 126 rotatably connected to the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136, and the outer peripheral surface of the bearing 128 is in contact with the first filter element 132 and the second filter element 136, so as to further reduce the friction between the filter assembly 130 and the rotating shaft 126, further increase the centrifugal force generated by the filter assembly 130 during rotation, and thus further improve the self-cleaning efficiency of the filter assembly 130.
[0105] Preferably, the bearing 128 can also be sleeved on one end of the rotating shaft 126 and the first filter element 132 that are rotatably connected, and the outer peripheral surface of the bearing 128 can be abutted against the first filter element 132, so that the bearing 128 is located between the rotating shaft 126 and the first filter element 132, thereby reducing the friction between the filter assembly 130 and the rotating shaft 126, increasing the centrifugal force generated by the filter assembly 130 during rotation, and thereby improving the self-cleaning efficiency of the filter assembly 130.
[0106] By providing a rotating shaft 126 and a bearing 128, and connecting one end of the rotating shaft 126 to the connecting rod 122 and the other end to the first filter element 132 and / or the second filter element 136 for rotation, the friction between the filter assembly 130, the rotating shaft 126 and the connecting rod 122 can be reduced, and the centrifugal force generated by the filter assembly 130 during rotation can be increased, thereby improving the self-cleaning efficiency of the filter assembly 130.
[0107] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 4 , Figure 6 , 7 As shown, the housing is arranged such that its central axis coincides with the central axis of the flow channel 100 .
[0108] In this embodiment, the central axis of the shell is set to coincide with the central axis of the flow channel 100, so that the direction of the centrifugal force generated by the filter assembly 130 is perpendicular to the inner wall of the flow channel 100, and the projection of the filter assembly 130 along the central axis of the shell is also completely located within the flow surface of the flow channel 100.
[0109] Preferably, the central axis of the shell and the central axis of the flow channel 100 can be set at a certain angle, and the angle is greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees. In the drying mode, the high-speed airflow generated by the fan provides additional power for the rotation of the filter assembly 130. The high-temperature and high-speed gas passes through the flow channel 100, driving the filter assembly 130 to rotate rapidly. By setting the central axis of the shell and the central axis of the flow channel 100 at a certain angle, the rotation of the filter assembly 130 can be accelerated, thereby increasing the centrifugal force to further accelerate the removal of hair debris. This process also ensures the permeability of gas flow, avoids the airflow obstruction caused by hair debris blocking the flow channel 100, and reduces the risk of overload that the fan may face due to limited gas flow.
[0110] By setting the central axis of the shell to coincide with the central axis of the flow channel 100, when water flows through the filter assembly 130, the filter assembly 130 begins to rotate and generates centrifugal force, causing larger and smaller hair debris attached to the filter assembly 130 to move toward the edge of the filter assembly 130. Finally, the larger and smaller hair debris will leave the filter assembly 130 with the water flow and fall directly into the lower discharge channel, thereby reducing the possibility of larger and smaller hair debris contacting the inner wall of the flow channel 100, reducing the risk of larger and smaller hair debris adhering to the inner body of the flow channel 100 and blocking the air duct, further avoiding the risk of overload of the fan due to excessive load, and also greatly reducing the maintenance frequency of users' regular cleaning of the air duct, thereby improving the user experience and the energy efficiency of the clothing processing equipment.
[0111] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 4 As shown, the filter assembly 130 includes:
[0112] The minimum angle formed by the outlet end of the high-pressure water pipe 140 and the central axis of the flow channel 100 is β, wherein β=60 degrees.
[0113] In this embodiment, in order to further improve the cleaning effect of the filter assembly 130, the filter assembly 130 also includes a high-pressure water pipe 140, which is a special high-pressure water spraying pipe specially added above the filter assembly 130. The high-pressure water pipe 140 can increase the water outlet pressure by reducing the pipe diameter, and its impact force on the filter assembly 130 is greater than the impact force of the water inlet on the filter assembly 130. The minimum angle formed by the outlet end of the high-pressure water pipe 140 and the central axis of the flow channel 100 is β, and the minimum angle β is set to 60 degrees, so that the water flow sprayed by the high-pressure water pipe 140 can flush the filter assembly 130 at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal direction. At this angle, the impact point of the sprayed water flow is located on the upper surface of the filter assembly 130 at the middle position between the bearing 128 and the inner wall of the flow channel 100. At this time, the water flow has a greater impact force on the filter assembly 130 in the radial direction, so the filter assembly 130 can reach a faster rotation speed, thereby generating a greater centrifugal force.
[0114] Preferably, when water starts to enter the laundry treatment device, the high-pressure water pipe 140 is also started simultaneously.
[0115] By adding a high-pressure water pipe 140 above the filter assembly 130 and making the water flow ejected from the high-pressure water pipe 140 flush the filter assembly 130 at an angle of 30 degrees to the horizontal direction, the water flow can more effectively push the filter assembly 130 to rotate, providing additional power for the filter assembly 130 to achieve automatic cleaning, and by increasing the impact force of the water flow, the filter assembly 130 generates a greater centrifugal force, making it more thorough when removing hair debris. This design not only improves the cleaning efficiency, but also ensures the effective rotation of the filter ball, avoiding the decrease in cleaning ability when the water pressure is insufficient.

Since the electronic device includes the hair dandruff removal control method of any implementation in the above embodiment 1, the electronic device has all the beneficial effects of the hair dandruff removal control method of any implementation in the above embodiment 1.
[0121] Embodiment 4:
[0122] This embodiment provides a clothing processing device, which is controlled by a dandruff removal control method as in any implementation of the above-mentioned embodiment one, or a filter component 130 as in any implementation of the above-mentioned embodiment two, or an electronic device as in the above-mentioned embodiment three. Since the clothing processing device includes a dandruff removal control method as in any implementation of the above-mentioned embodiment one, or a filter component 130 as in any implementation of the above-mentioned embodiment two, or an electronic device as in the above-mentioned embodiment three, the clothing processing device has all the beneficial effects of a dandruff removal control method as in any implementation of the above-mentioned embodiment one, or a filter component 130 as in any implementation of the above-mentioned embodiment two, or an electronic device as in the above-mentioned embodiment three.
[0123] In summary, the ingenious idea of the dandruff removal control method is:
[0124] First, by controlling the first water flow to flow through the filter assembly, the filter assembly can be rotated under the impact of the first water flow, and the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter assembly is more conducive to throwing out impurities such as hair scraps attached to the filter assembly and peeling off the surface of the filter assembly, thereby realizing automatic cleaning of the filter assembly, thereby greatly reducing the maintenance frequency of users manually cleaning the filter assembly regularly, simplifying the maintenance process, saving usage time, and ensuring that the clothing processing equipment can operate stably for a long time, which can not only clean the hair scraps in the clothing processing equipment in time, but also will not cause damage to the fan of the clothing processing equipment, significantly improving the overall performance of the washing and drying machine, and improving the user experience and energy efficiency of the clothing processing equipment, and reducing the operating cost;
[0125] The filter component is constructed as a spherical shell, which can rotate when impacted by water flow. The water flow contacts half of the shell surface of the filter component of the spherical shell, and the flow area is large. The rotation of the filter component will produce rotation in the flow channel, which can enhance the fluidity of the fluid, thereby effectively enhancing the fluidity of the water flow, with a large flow rate and high filtration efficiency. During the rotation process, the filter component can not only filter the water flow, but also remove impurities such as hair on its surface under the action of centrifugal force, thereby avoiding blockage of the main flow surface. At the same time, it has a backwashing effect on the hair and other impurities attached to the surface of the filter component facing away from the water flow, thereby effectively removing the hair and other impurities on the side facing away from the water flow.
[0126] Second, the hair removal control method includes controlling the airflow or water flow to circulate in the flow channel and flow through the filter component, so that when the airflow or water flow flows through the filter component, it can push the filter component to rotate in the flow channel, and the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter component can be used to peel off the hair and other impurities attached to the filter component from the surface of the filter component, thereby realizing automatic cleaning of the filter component, thereby greatly reducing the maintenance frequency of users manually cleaning the filter component on a regular basis, simplifying the maintenance process, saving usage time, and ensuring that the clothing processing equipment can operate stably for a long time, which can not only clean the hair in the clothing processing equipment in time, but also will not cause damage to the fan of the clothing processing equipment, significantly improving the overall performance of the washing and drying machine, and improving the user experience and energy efficiency of the clothing processing equipment, and reducing operating costs.
[0127] Third, by controlling the airflow to flow through the filter assembly from bottom to top in the flow channel and controlling the water flow to flow through the filter assembly from top to bottom in the flow channel, the circulation efficiency of the airflow and water flow in the flow channel can be increased, so that the filter assembly will not cause resistance to air flow when rotating with the airflow, and the hair debris attached to the filter assembly can leave the filter assembly together with the water flow under the action of the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the filter assembly and gravity and flow to the drainage area below the flow channel. When the drainage system inside the clothing processing equipment is started, the hair debris captured and collected by the filter element will be completely discharged from the clothing processing equipment together with the washing waste water, without the need for the user to intervene through manual operation, thereby realizing efficient automatic cleaning of the filter element.
[0128] Fourth, by setting the first water flow as the water inlet when the laundry processing device starts the washing program, the hair debris attached to the upper and lower surfaces of the filter component can be cleaned at the same time, preventing the hair debris from accumulating inside the laundry processing device, thereby keeping the flow channel unobstructed and clean.
[0129] Fifth, by setting the impact force of the second water flow on the filter component to be greater than the impact force of the first water flow on the filter component, the filter component can clean the hair debris attached to its surface more quickly and comprehensively. It can also enable the filter component to increase the centrifugal force to make the excess hair debris detach from the surface of the filter component and be discharged when faced with the adsorption of excessive hair debris, thereby significantly improving the automatic cleaning efficiency of the clothing processing equipment and the overall performance of the clothing processing equipment.
