[0045] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0046] Example 1

[0047] This embodiment proposes a method for setting a clothing care program. Figure 1 As shown, the clothing care program setting method includes the following steps:

[0048] S1. Obtaining a user program setting process, wherein the program setting process includes customized care, professional care, and one-click care;

[0049] S2, obtaining clothing features to perform clothing recognition, wherein the features include shape, color, buttons, pockets, and logos;

[0050] S3, determine whether the clothes are being cared for the first time? If yes, proceed to step S4; if no, proceed to step S5;

[0051] S4, performing clothing care process according to the program setting process;

[0052] S5, retrieving the most recent clothing care program to perform clothing care process;

[0053] S6. End.

[0054] The clothing care program setting method described in this embodiment, on the one hand, allows the user to perform different program setting processes according to different clothing care effects, and on the other hand, simplifies the care program for the cared clothes, thereby improving the efficiency of clothing care.

[0055] In the method for setting a clothing care program described in this embodiment, steps S1 to S6 are interrelated and inseparable. Through step S1, the user can perform different program setting processes according to different clothing care effects. Through step S2, the clothing can be identified. Through step S3, it is determined whether the clothing is being cared for for the first time, and different clothing care processes are entered, thereby making the control of the clothing care process in different situations more accurate. If the clothing is being cared for for the first time, step S4 is entered, and the clothing care process is performed according to the program setting process; if the clothing is not being cared for for the first time, step S5 is entered, and the most recent care program of the clothing is retrieved to perform the clothing care process, thereby simplifying the care program of the cared-for clothing and improving the efficiency of clothing care.

[0056] The clothing care program setting method described in this embodiment has different requirements for the same clothing care effect for different users, so different program entrances are set for users with different care effects, and then combined with automatic recognition to determine the clothing care program, so as to achieve a relatively ideal care effect.

[0057] Specifically, step S4 includes the following steps:

[0058] S41, obtaining program setting process;

[0059] S42, determining whether the program setting process is customized care, if so, proceeding to step S43; if not, proceeding to step S44;

[0060] S43, formulating a care program based on the user selected program by combining AI recognition of pocket location, clothing color, and wrinkle information;

[0061] S44, determining whether the program setting process is professional care, if so, proceeding to step S45; if not, proceeding to step S46;

[0062] S45. Based on the basic program, the user inputs fabric information and combines AI to identify pocket positions, clothing colors, and wrinkle information to develop a care program;

[0063] S46. Develop a care procedure based on the basic procedure, combining clothing color, pockets, and wrinkle information;

[0064] S47. Carry out clothing care process according to the established care procedures.

[0065] This setting can combine the requirements of different users for clothing care effects with automatic identification of pocket positions, clothing colors, and wrinkle information to formulate a care program, thereby achieving a relatively ideal care effect.

[0066] Specifically, step S4 also includes the following steps:

[0067] S48, storing the clothes and the established nursing procedures in a one-to-one correspondence;

[0068] S49, entering the information stored in the one-to-one correspondence between the clothes and the established care procedures into the procedure database.

[0069] This setting facilitates the direct matching of the formulated care program in the program database to carry out the clothing care process when the clothes that have been cared for are cared for again, thereby simplifying the care program for the clothes that have been cared for and improving the efficiency of clothing care.

[0070] Specifically, in step S2, the characteristics of the clothing are acquired through a camera device.

[0071] This arrangement facilitates accurate identification of clothing by acquiring the outer contour, color, buttons, pockets and LOGO of clothing through a camera device, thereby facilitating accurate identification of whether the clothing is being cared for for the first time.

[0072] More specifically, the imaging device is a camera.

[0073] Specifically, step S5 includes the following steps:

[0074] S51, retrieving the most recent care procedure for the clothing;

[0075] S52, performing a clothing care process according to the clothing care procedure most recently used.

[0076] This arrangement facilitates the clothing care process to be directly carried out according to the clothing care procedure of the most recent clothing care when the clothing is cared for again, thereby simplifying the clothing care procedure and improving the clothing care efficiency.

[0077] Specifically, in step S4, the user-selected program is a program with specific care parameters set according to clothing material.

[0078] More specifically, the clothing material may be cotton, linen, chemical fiber, silk, wool, etc., but is not limited thereto.

[0079] Specifically, in step S4, the basic program refers to a program of universal nursing parameters preset by the system and set after verification by a large amount of experimental data.

[0080] Specifically, the universal care parameters include care steam pressure, care temperature and ironing times.

[0081] Specifically, the care temperature is achieved by controlling the temperature of the ironing plate 101, the steam temperature, and the distance between the ironing plate 101 and the clothes.

[0082] Specifically, the care temperature is adjusted by controlling the temperature of the ironing plate 101, the steam temperature, and the distance between the ironing plate 101 and the clothes.

[0083] This setting makes the adjustment of the care temperature more precise, thereby achieving a relatively ideal care effect.

[0084] Specifically, in step S4, the formulation of a care program refers to formulating an exclusive program that better matches the clothing based on a basic program or a user-selected program in combination with clothing color, pocket position, and wrinkle information recognized by clothing AI.

[0085] This setting makes it easy to formulate an exclusive program that better matches the clothes, thereby achieving a relatively ideal care effect.

[0086] Specifically, the professional care refers to the user inputting customized clothing fabric material according to the fabric information identified on the clothing label, and the system generating the temperature and pressure parameters required for care according to the customized fabric information.

[0087] In the method for setting a clothing care program described in this embodiment, steps S1 to S6 are interrelated and inseparable. Through step S1, the user can perform different program setting processes according to different clothing care effects. Through step S2, the clothing can be identified. Through step S3, it is determined whether the clothing is being cared for for the first time, and different clothing care processes are entered, thereby making the control of the clothing care process in different situations more accurate. If the clothing is being cared for for the first time, step S4 is entered, and the clothing care process is performed according to the program setting process; if the clothing is not being cared for for the first time, step S5 is entered, and the most recent care program of the clothing is retrieved to perform the clothing care process, thereby simplifying the care program of the cared-for clothing and improving the efficiency of clothing care.

[0088] This embodiment also provides a clothing care device, such as Figure 2As shown, the clothing care device includes a care plate assembly 1 and a vertical rail assembly 22. The care plate assembly 1 can be slidably connected to the vertical rail assembly 22, and the care plate assembly 1 can be moved closer to or away from the clothing. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a spray hole 102 is provided on the care plate assembly 1, and the care plate assembly 1 sprays steam or water vapor to the clothes through the spray hole 102. An ironing board 101 and a camera device (not shown) are provided on the care plate assembly 1. The vertical rail assembly 22 is slidably connected to the horizontal rail assembly 23; the care plate assembly 1 is installed on the horizontal rail assembly 23; the horizontal rail assembly 23 can slide up and down along the vertical rail assembly 22 to drive the care plate assembly 1 to perform up and down care on the clothes. Specifically, as Figure 2 As shown, a top plate 24 is disposed above the vertical rail assembly 22 , and a base 21 is disposed below the vertical rail assembly 22 .

[0089] This arrangement makes it easy for the care plate assembly 1 to care for clothes in the up and down directions and to collect clothing information to identify the clothes.

[0090] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the clothing care device further comprises a hanger assembly 3, and the hanger assembly 3 is used to support and hang clothing;

[0091] Specifically, Figure 2 As shown, the clothing care device further includes a drying component 4, and the drying component 4 is used to output high-temperature gas to the clothing to dry the clothing.

[0092] Specifically, in step S2, the outer contour, color, buttons, pockets and LOGO of the clothing are acquired through a camera device.

[0093] Step S2 includes the following steps:

[0094] S21, the horizontal rail assembly 23 moves along the vertical rail assembly 22;

[0095] S22, the camera device is turned on, and the camera device obtains the outer contour, color, buttons, pockets and LOGO of the clothing.

[0096] The clothing care device uses a clothing care program setting method as described in any one of Embodiment 1.

[0097] A lint removal device 5 is installed below the camera device, and the lint removal device 5 removes lint by contacting, squeezing and rubbing with clothes.

[0098] On the one hand, this arrangement can directly remove lint from clothes while the camera device acquires the outer shape, color, buttons, pockets and LOGO of the clothes; on the other hand, when collecting information on clothes from top to bottom, this arrangement can first allow the lint removal device 5 to remove lint by contact, squeezing and friction with the clothes, and then acquire the outer shape, color, buttons, pockets and LOGO of the clothes through the camera device, thereby avoiding the influence of lint on the judgment of the information of the clothes and improving the accuracy of the camera device in acquiring the clothing information.

[0099] The lint removal device 5 is disposed above the injection hole 102 .

[0100] When caring for clothes from top to bottom, this arrangement can first spray steam or water vapor onto the clothes through the spray hole 102, which can eliminate static electricity between the clothes and dander, and then the dander removal device 5 arranged above it can directly and effectively remove the dander for a second time by contacting, squeezing and rubbing with the clothes, thereby greatly improving the dander removal efficiency.

[0101] The clothing care device includes, in addition to the care plate assembly 1, the vertical rail assembly 22, the hanger assembly 3 and the drying assembly 4, other related components such as a shell. Since the specific structures and specific assembly relationships of the related components are all prior art, they will not be elaborated here.

[0102] The advantages of the clothing care device and the above-mentioned clothing care program setting method over the prior art are the same, which will not be repeated here.

[0103] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention shall be subject to the scope defined by the claims.
