[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of washing equipment, and in particular, relates to a washing equipment and a self-cleaning control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, the application of washing equipment has become very popular. With the long-term use of washing equipment, some stains will adhere to the space between the inner barrel and the outer barrel. During the washing process, due to the lack of strong water flow, deposited dirt will form on the outer wall of the inner barrel and the inner wall of the outer barrel. Since the inside of the washing equipment is humid, the dirt breeds bacteria in a humid environment, becoming a hotbed for bacteria to multiply in large numbers, thus causing secondary contamination of the laundry when the user washes it next time.

[0003] At present, the way to remove dirt in washing equipment includes using barrel cleaners. The barrel cleaners are added to the washing equipment and washed in a laundry mode. In this way, during the washing process, due to different types of barrel cleaners and different amounts of barrel cleaners added, the same washing method is used, and the degree of cleanliness of the barrel cleaning varies, resulting in a technical problem of incomplete cleaning. The soaking time in the laundry mode is short, and the soaking time and soaking process are difficult to adapt to barrel cleaning, resulting in incomplete cleaning.

[0010] According to the self-cleaning control method for a washing machine as described above, during the rinsing process, the foam height is monitored and the number of rinses is determined according to the foam height.

[0011] According to the self-cleaning control method for the washing machine as described above, when the foam height exceeds the set height, an additional rinse is performed, otherwise, the rinsing process is terminated after the current rinse is performed.

[0012] The self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment as described above obtains the interval time and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time between the current self-cleaning and the last self-cleaning, and determines the soaking water level, soaking parameters, first soaking time and second soaking time according to the interval time and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time and the type of barrel detergent.

[0013] In the self-cleaning control method for washing equipment as described above, the soaking parameter includes the start / stop time, or the soaking parameter includes the start / stop time and the soaking temperature.

[0029] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "plurality" means two or more.

[0030] A washing device and a self-cleaning control method thereof, which comprises the steps of obtaining a barrel detergent type; determining a soaking water level, soaking parameters, a first soaking time, and a second soaking time according to the barrel detergent type; supplying water to the soaking water level; a first soaking stage: soaking for a first soaking time according to the soaking parameters; a second soaking stage: monitoring the foam height, determining an interval time according to the foam height, and rotating the washing barrel at a set angle at intervals; soaking for a second soaking time; performing a washing process; performing a rinsing process; and ending self-cleaning. The washing device and the self-cleaning control method thereof can adapt to various barrel detergents, and determine different soaking water levels, soaking parameters, and soaking times according to different detergent types to ensure a soaking effect. At the same time, during the soaking process, the rotation interval of the washing barrel is determined according to the foam height to improve the soaking effect while ensuring foam safety, so as to facilitate later washing and rinsing and ensure a self-cleaning effect.

[0031] The washing equipment may be a washing machine, a washer-dryer, a shoe washing machine with an inner washing drum and an outer washing drum, etc.

[0032] The following is an explanation of the self-cleaning control method of washing equipment using a washing machine as an example: Gets the drum cleaner type.

[0033] Drum cleaner types generally include block (granular), powder, and liquid.

[0034] In some embodiments, the washing machine is provided with an input module, and the method for obtaining the type of tub detergent may be to input the detergent type through the input module.

[0035] In some embodiments, the washing machine is provided with an identification module, and the method for obtaining the type of tub detergent may be to identify the detergent type through the identification module.

[0036] The soaking water level, soaking parameters, first soaking time and second soaking time are determined according to the type of tub cleaner.

[0037] The soaking water level refers to the water level during the soaking stage.

[0038] Soaking parameters refer to the relevant parameters of washing equipment control during the soaking stage.

[0039] In some embodiments, the soak parameters include a start / stop time.

[0040] In some embodiments, the soak parameters include spin / stop time and soak temperature.

[0041] The first soaking time refers to the soaking time in the first soaking stage.

[0042] The second soaking time refers to the soaking time of the second soaking stage.

[0043] The types of drum cleaners are classified by dissolution rate. In some embodiments, the types of drum cleaners include block (granular), powder, and liquid.

[0044] Among them, the soaking water level is negatively correlated with the dissolution rate, the first soaking time is negatively correlated with the dissolution rate, the second soaking time is negatively correlated with the dissolution rate, the turn / stop time is negatively correlated with the dissolution rate, and the soaking temperature is negatively correlated with the dissolution rate.

[0045] In some embodiments, the corresponding values ​​or value ranges of the tub cleaning agent type and the soaking water level, the first soaking time, the second soaking time, the start / stop time, and the soaking temperature are determined by preliminary experiments, as shown in the following table: Bucket Cleaner Type Immersion water level (cm) Soaking temperature T(℃) First soaking time (min) First soaking time start / stop (s / s) Second soaking time (h) Block H1 T1 t11 t1z / t1t t21 Powder H2 T2 t12 t2z / t2t t22 liquid H3 T3 t13 t3z / t3t t23 Among them, H1>H2>H3.

[0046] T1>T2>T3.

[0047] t11>t12>t13.

[0048] t1z>t2z>t3z; t1t>t2t>t3t.

[0049] t21>t22>t23.

[0050] Fill with water to the immersion level.

[0051] The water level height is detected by the water level detection module, and the water intake is stopped after the water intake reaches the soaking water level.

[0052] First soaking stage: soak for the first soaking time according to the soaking parameters.

[0053] In some embodiments, there is no heating function or the heating function is not used, and the washing tub can be rotated by controlling the start / stop (s / s) according to the first soaking time.

[0054] In some embodiments, a heating function is used to control the washing device to heat to a soaking temperature, and the washing tub is controlled to rotate according to a first soaking time start / stop (s / s).

[0055] Whether to use the heating function can be determined according to whether the heating function is available or according to user selection.

[0056] Second soaking stage: monitor the foam height, determine the interval time according to the foam height, and rotate the washing tub to a set angle at each interval time. Soaking continues for the second soaking time in the second soaking stage.

[0057] The foam height is detected by the foam monitoring module. The interval time is the interval time between two rotations of the washing tub.

[0058] In some embodiments, the rotation setting angle is 30°-90°.

[0059] Among them, the interval time is positively correlated with the foam height. That is, the higher the foam height, the longer the interval time, and the lower the foam height, the shorter the interval time.

[0060] The more foam there is, the better the soaking effect will be. However, excessive rotation should be avoided to avoid the risk of overflow due to increased foam. Some of the foam can be eliminated by extending the interval time.

[0061] The length of the interval time can reflect the frequency of soaking and rotation. The more frequent the soaking and rotation, the greater the probability that the stains on the washing tub will fall off easily.

[0062] The immersion stage of the self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment is divided into two immersion stages. In the first immersion stage, the equipment is immersed according to a certain rotation / stop time. At this time, a large amount of foam is easily generated. In order to avoid foam overflow, the foam height is monitored in the second immersion stage, and the rotation interval time is dynamically determined according to the foam height to improve the immersion effect while avoiding foam problems, which is beneficial to the subsequent washing and rinsing and improves the self-cleaning effect.

[0063] After soaking is complete, the washing process is performed.

[0064] During the washing process, a conventional strong or low water level, high speed washing method is performed with a speed of 40-90rpm, a washing temperature of 20-60°C, and a time of 10-60min.

[0065] After washing is completed, a rinsing process is performed.

[0066] Rinse is finished and self-cleaning is finished.

[0067] like Figure 1 As shown, the self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment includes the following steps: S1. Start.

[0068] S2. Get the type of barrel cleaner.

[0069] Specifically, the type of the tub cleaner is input through the input module, or the type of the tub cleaner is identified through the identification module.

[0070] S3. Determine the soaking water level, soaking parameters, first soaking time and second soaking time according to the type of tub cleaner.

[0071] S4. Stop adding water after the water reaches the soaking level.

[0072] S5, first soaking stage: soaking according to soaking parameters.

[0073] Specifically, the washing tub is controlled to rotate according to the first soaking time start / stop (s / s).

[0074] In a washing device with a heating function, the washing device is controlled to be heated to a soaking temperature, and the washing tub is controlled to rotate according to a first soaking time start / stop (s / s).

[0075] S6. Determine whether the first soaking time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S7; otherwise, proceed to step S5.

[0076] S7, second soaking stage: monitor the foam height, determine the interval time according to the foam height, and rotate the washing tub to a set angle at each interval time.

[0077] S8. Determine whether the second soaking time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S9; otherwise, proceed to step S7.

[0078] S9, washing process.

[0079] S10: Rinsing process.

[0080] S11. End.

[0081] In the second soaking stage, in order to prevent the foam from overflowing, when the foam height exceeds the set upper limit of the height, the washing tub is controlled to stop rotating. When the foam height is lower than the set upper limit of the height, the rotation of the washing tub is resumed.

[0082] In order to improve the soaking effect, when the foam height is lower than the set height lower limit, the interval time for the washing tub to rotate the set angle is the set interval time.

[0083] Among them, the interval time is set shorter than other interval times to increase the rotation frequency and improve the soaking effect. At the same time, the rotation process can promote the removal of stains.

[0084] The self-cleaning control method of a washing device can improve the self-cleaning effect and prevent foam overflow.

[0085] like Figure 2 As shown, the self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment includes the following steps: S1. Start.

[0086] S2. Get the type of barrel cleaner.

[0087] Specifically, the type of the tub cleaner is input through the input module, or the type of the tub cleaner is identified through the identification module.

[0088] S3. Determine the soaking water level, soaking parameters, first soaking time and second soaking time according to the type of tub cleaner.

[0089] S4. Stop adding water after the water reaches the soaking level.

[0090] S5, first soaking stage: soaking according to soaking parameters.

[0091] Specifically, the washing tub is controlled to rotate according to the first soaking time start / stop (s / s).

[0092] In a washing device with a heating function, the washing device is controlled to be heated to a soaking temperature, and the washing tub is controlled to rotate according to a first soaking time start / stop (s / s).

[0093] S6. Determine whether the first soaking time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S7; otherwise, proceed to step S5.

[0094] S7, second immersion stage: monitoring the foam height.

[0095] S8, determine whether the foam height exceeds the set height upper limit, if so, go to step S9, otherwise, go to step S10.

[0096] S9, control the washing tub to stop rotating. Go to step S13.

[0097] S10, determine whether the foam height is lower than the set height lower limit, if so, go to step S11, otherwise, go to step S12.

[0098] S11, the interval time of the washing tub rotating the set angle is the set interval time. Enter step S13.

[0099] S12, determining the interval time according to the height of the foam, and rotating the washing tub by a set angle at each interval time. Then proceeding to step S13.

[0100] S13, determine whether the second soaking time has been reached, if so, proceed to step S14, otherwise, proceed to step S7.

[0101] S14: washing process.

[0102] S15: Rinsing process.

[0103] S16, end.

[0104] In order to ensure a clean rinse during the rinsing stage, the foam height is monitored during the rinsing process and the number of rinses is determined based on the foam height.

[0105] When the foam height exceeds the set height, an additional rinse is performed, otherwise, the rinsing process ends after the current rinse is completed.

[0106] The self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment can ensure clean rinsing.

[0107] like Figure 3 As shown, the self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment includes the following steps: S1. Start.

[0108] S2. Get the type of barrel cleaner.

[0109] Specifically, the type of the tub cleaner is input through the input module, or the type of the tub cleaner is identified through the identification module.

[0110] S3. Determine the soaking water level, soaking parameters, first soaking time and second soaking time according to the type of tub cleaner.

[0111] S4. Stop adding water after the water reaches the soaking level.

[0112] S5, first soaking stage: soaking according to soaking parameters.

[0113] Specifically, the washing tub is controlled to rotate according to the first soaking time start / stop (s / s).

[0114] In a washing device with a heating function, the washing device is controlled to be heated to a soaking temperature, and the washing tub is controlled to rotate according to a first soaking time start / stop (s / s).

[0115] S6. Determine whether the first soaking time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S7; otherwise, proceed to step S5.

[0116] S7, second soaking stage: monitor the foam height, determine the interval time according to the foam height, and rotate the washing tub to a set angle at each interval time.

[0117] S8. Determine whether the second soaking time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S9; otherwise, proceed to step S7.

[0118] S9, washing process.

[0119] S10: During the rinsing process, the foam height is detected.

[0120] S11, determine whether the foam height exceeds the set height, if so, go to step S12, otherwise, go to step S13.

[0121] S12, after the current rinsing is finished, rinse again.

[0122] S13, the rinsing process ends after this rinsing.

[0123] S14, end.

[0124] In some embodiments, since the self-cleaning interval, the number of washes and the washing time between two self-cleanings are important factors affecting the accumulated amount of stains, the interval between the first self-cleaning and the last self-cleaning and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time are used as control parameters for the soaking water level, soaking parameters, the first soaking time and the second soaking time.

[0125] Specifically, the interval time between this self-cleaning and the last self-cleaning and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time are obtained, and the soaking water level, soaking parameters, first soaking time and second soaking time are determined according to the interval time / or the number of washes and / or the washing time and the type of barrel detergent.

[0126] The soaking water level, soaking parameters, the first soaking time and the second soaking time are positively correlated with the interval time between the current self-cleaning and the last self-cleaning and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time.

[0127] The self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment can perform self-cleaning more accurately according to the stain situation.

[0128] like Figure 4 As shown, the self-cleaning control method of the washing equipment includes the following steps: S1. Start.

[0129] S2. Obtain the type of tub detergent, the interval between the current self-cleaning and the last self-cleaning, and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time.

[0130] Specifically, the type of the tub cleaner is input through the input module, or the type of the tub cleaner is identified through the identification module.

[0131] The counting / time module counts the interval time between the current self-cleaning and the last self-cleaning and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time.

[0132] S3. Determine the soaking water level, soaking parameters, first soaking time and second soaking time according to the interval time between the current self-cleaning and the last self-cleaning and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time and the type of tub detergent.

[0137] S6. Determine whether the first soaking time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S7; otherwise, proceed to step S5.

[0138] S7, second soaking stage: monitor the foam height, determine the interval time according to the foam height, and rotate the washing tub to a set angle at each interval time.

[0139] S8. Determine whether the second soaking time has been reached. If so, proceed to step S9; otherwise, proceed to step S7.

[0140] S9, washing process.

[0141] S10: Rinsing process.

[0142] S11. End.

[0143] This embodiment also proposes a washing device, which performs self-cleaning according to the above-mentioned self-cleaning control method.

[0144] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, the washing device comprises a washing tub, and the washing tub comprises an inner washing tub and an outer washing tub. A driving mechanism drives the inner washing tub to rotate.

[0145] In some embodiments, the washing machine is provided with an input module, and the method for obtaining the type of tub detergent may be to input the detergent type through the input module.

[0146] In some embodiments, the washing machine is provided with an identification module, and the method for obtaining the type of tub detergent may be to identify the detergent type through the identification module.

[0147] Drum cleaner types generally include block (granular), powder, and liquid.

[0148] The control module determines a soaking water level, a soaking parameter, a first soaking time, and a second soaking time according to the type of tub detergent.

[0149] The soaking water level refers to the water level during the soaking stage.

[0150] Soaking parameters refer to the relevant parameters of washing equipment control during the soaking stage.

[0151] In some embodiments, the soak parameters include a start / stop time.

[0157] In some embodiments, the corresponding values ​​or value ranges of the tub cleaning agent type and the soaking water level, the first soaking time, the second soaking time, the start / stop time, and the soaking temperature are determined by preliminary experiments and stored in the storage module. For example, the contents stored in the storage module are shown in the following table: Bucket Cleaner Type Immersion water level (cm) Soaking temperature T(℃) First soaking time (min) First soaking time start / stop (s / s) Second soaking time (h) Block H1 T1 t11 t1z / t1t t21 Powder H2 T2 t12 t2z / t2t t22 liquid H3 T3 t13 t3z / t3t t23 Among them, H1>H2>H3.

[0162] The water level detection module is used to detect the water level height and send it to the control module. After the water enters to the soaking level, the water intake is stopped.

[0163] The timing module is used for timing the first soaking time and the second soaking time.

[0164] In the washing device with a heating module, the washing device includes a temperature detection module, which detects the temperature and sends it to the control module. After the control module determines that the detected temperature reaches the soaking temperature, the heating module is controlled to stop heating.

[0165] The foam height detection module detects the foam height and sends it to the control module.

[0166] The control module determines the interval between two rotations of the washing tub according to the foam height during the soaking stage, and controls the washing tub to rotate at a set angle at each interval.

[0167] In some embodiments, the rotation setting angle is 30°-90°.

[0168] Among them, the interval time is positively correlated with the foam height. That is, the higher the foam height, the longer the interval time, and the lower the foam height, the shorter the interval time.

[0169] The more foam there is, the better the soaking effect will be. However, excessive rotation should be avoided to avoid the risk of overflow due to increased foam. Some of the foam can be eliminated by extending the interval time.

[0170] The length of the interval time can reflect the frequency of soaking and rotation. The more frequent the soaking and rotation, the greater the probability that the stains on the washing tub will fall off easily.

[0171] The washing equipment can improve the self-cleaning effect and prevent foam overflow.

[0172] The control module monitors the foam height during the rinsing process and determines the number of rinses according to the foam height. When the foam height exceeds the set height, an additional rinse is performed, otherwise, the rinsing process ends after the current rinse is performed.

[0173] Washing equipment can ensure clean rinsing.

[0174] The timing / counting module is used to time or count the interval time between the current self-cleaning and the previous self-cleaning and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time.

[0175] The control module determines the soaking water level, soaking parameters, the first soaking time and the second soaking time according to the interval time and / or the number of washes and / or the washing time and the type of the tub detergent.

[0176] Washing machines can clean themselves more precisely based on the stains.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it is still possible for a person skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or to replace some of the technical features therein by equivalents.
