Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of clothing processing equipment, and in particular to a control method of clothing processing equipment and clothing processing equipment. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of science and technology, clothes processing equipment such as dryers and integrated washing and drying machines have become common household appliances in people's lives. Take the dryer as an example. The dryer can dry clothes during operation. However, during the drying process, the lint of the clothes is easy to fall off. If there are too many lint, it is easy to block the fan and heating tube and other components, making the drying effect unsatisfactory or causing machine failure.

[0003] Therefore, a lint filter is generally provided in the clothes dryer to filter the hot air to prevent the lint from being discharged with the hot air. As time goes by, more and more lint will accumulate on the lint filter, which needs to be cleaned regularly. However, since users cannot accurately judge when the lint filter needs to be cleaned, the lint filter cannot be cleaned in time, which affects the smooth circulation of hot air and further affects the drying effect of the clothes dryer.

[0004] Accordingly, the art needs a new technical solution to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve at least one of the above problems in the prior art, that is, to solve the problem that the lint filter in the existing clothing processing device cannot be cleaned in time, thereby affecting the clothing processing effect of the clothing processing device, the present application provides a control method for the clothing processing device, the clothing processing device includes a lint collector, a driving mechanism, a magnetic element and a magnetic sensitive element; one of the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element is arranged below or at the bottom of the lint collector, and the other of the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element is arranged to be connected to the output end of the driving mechanism, and can enter and exit the lint collector under the drive of the driving mechanism; the control method includes:

[0006] After the laundry processing program of the laundry processing device is finished, controlling the driving mechanism to drive the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element to enter the lint collector;

[0009] According to the comparison result, the user is selectively reminded to clean the lint collector.

[0010] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned laundry processing device, the step of "selectively reminding the user to clean the lint collector according to the comparison result" further includes:

[0011] When the real-time current is greater than or equal to the preset current, the driving mechanism is controlled to drive the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element to extend to the wire scrap collector;

[0012] When the real-time current is less than the preset current, the user is reminded to clean the wire scrap collector.

[0013] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned laundry processing device, after the step of "when the real-time current is less than the preset current, reminding the user to clean the lint collector", it also includes:

[0014] The driving mechanism is controlled to drive the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element to extend to the wire scrap collector.

[0015] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, before the step of "detecting the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element", the following steps are also included:

[0016] Get the running time of the driving mechanism;

[0017] Compare the running time with the preset time;

[0018] When the running time is greater than or equal to the preset time, the driving mechanism is controlled to stop working.

[0019] The present application also provides a clothes processing device, the clothes processing device comprising a lint collector, a driving mechanism, a magnetic element and a magnetic sensitive element; one of the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element is arranged below or at the bottom of the lint collector, and the other of the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element is arranged to be connected to the output end of the driving mechanism, and can enter and exit the lint collector under the drive of the driving mechanism;

[0020] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the driving mechanism includes a stepping motor and a rope body;

[0021] The output end of the stepper motor is connected to the first end of the rope body, the second end of the rope body is connected to the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element, and the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element is configured so that when the stepper motor drives the rope body to be reeled or released, the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element can be brought closer to or farther away from each other.

[0022] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothing processing device, the stepper motor is arranged on the outer top surface of the lint collector; the top surface of the lint collector is provided with a hole through which the rope body and / or the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element connected to the second end of the rope body can pass; or

[0023] The stepping motor is arranged in the wire scrap collector.

[0024] In a preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothing processing device, the clothing processing device further comprises a device body, and the lint collector, the driving mechanism, the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element are all arranged in the device body.

[0025] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, the driving mechanism is a telescopic mechanism, the output end of the telescopic mechanism is connected to the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element, and the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element is configured to be able to make the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element approach or move away from each other under the drive of the telescopic mechanism.

[0026] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the magnetic sensitive element is a magnetic sensitive resistor; and / or

[0027] The magnetic element is a magnetic ball.

[0028] It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the control method of the clothing processing device of the present application controls the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element to enter the lint collector after the clothing processing program is finished, shortening the distance between the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element. In the process of shortening the distance between the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element, the magnetic flux of the magnetic sensitive element will change, thereby forming an electric current in the magnetic sensitive element. When there are relatively few lint chips in the lint collector, the current caused by the lack of lint chips is relatively large, and when there are relatively many lint chips in the lint collector, the current that cannot be caused or caused is relatively small due to the obstruction of the lint chips. Therefore, by comparing the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element with the preset current, the user is selectively reminded to clean the lint collector, so that the lint collector can be cleaned in time to ensure the cleanliness of the lint collector, so as to avoid affecting the smooth circulation of hot air, thereby affecting the processing effect of the clothing processing device.

[0029] Furthermore, by reminding the user to clean the lint collector when the real-time current is less than the preset current, lint and other debris on the lint collector can be effectively removed, air flow can be ensured, and the processing effect of the clothing processing equipment can be improved. Timely cleaning of the lint collector can also prevent equipment failure and reduce the maintenance cost of the clothing processing equipment.

[0030] Furthermore, when the real-time current is less than the preset current, after reminding the user to clean the lint collector, the magnetic element or magnetic sensitive element is controlled to extend out of the lint collector, thereby facilitating the collection of lint during the operation of the clothing processing device.

[0031] Furthermore, before detecting the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element, by obtaining the running time of the driving mechanism and comparing the running time with the preset time, when the running time is greater than or equal to the preset time, the driving mechanism is controlled to stop working, thereby avoiding affecting the accuracy of the current of the magnetic sensitive element due to insufficient running time of the driving mechanism.

[0032] It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the clothing processing device of the present application can drive the magnetic-sensitive element or the magnetic element to enter and exit the lint collector through the driving mechanism, so that the magnetic element can approach or move away from the magnetic-sensitive element. In the process of the magnetic element approaching the magnetic-sensitive element, the magnetic flux of the magnetic-sensitive element is changed, thereby forming an electric current in the magnetic-sensitive element. When there are relatively few lint chips in the lint collector, the current caused by the lack of lint chips is relatively large, and when there are relatively many lint chips in the lint collector, the magnetic element cannot cause or causes a relatively small current due to the obstruction of the lint chips. Therefore, by comparing the real-time current of the magnetic-sensitive element with the preset current, it can be determined whether the lint collector needs to be cleaned, so that the lint collector can be cleaned in time to ensure the cleanliness of the lint collector, so as to avoid affecting the smooth circulation of hot air, thereby affecting the processing effect of the clothing processing device.

[0033] Furthermore, by connecting the first end of the rope to the output end of the driving mechanism and the second end to the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element, the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element can approach or move away from each other when the driving mechanism drives the rope to wind or release, thereby causing a change in the current of the magnetic sensitive element, and then the amount of wire scraps in the wire scrap collector can be judged.

[0034] Furthermore, by moving the outer top surface of the lint collector or the inner top surface of the lint collector, the driving mechanism can drive the magnetic sensitive element or the magnetic element so that the magnetic sensitive element and the magnetic element are close to or away from each other, thereby causing a change in the current of the magnetic sensitive element, and then the amount of lint in the lint collector can be judged. In addition, the practicability of the clothing processing equipment can be improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0041] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. For example, although the present embodiment is introduced in conjunction with a clothes dryer, this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Without departing from the principles of the present application, those skilled in the art may apply the present application to other types of clothing processing equipment. For example, a washing and drying machine, etc.

[0042] It should be noted that, in the description of the present application, terms such as "upper", "lower", "inner", "bottom", "end" and the like indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings. This is merely for the convenience of description and does not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0043] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "disposed", "connected" and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection, a direct connection, or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal connection of two elements. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0044] First refer to Figure 1 , the clothes processing device of the present application is described. Among them, Figure 1 This is a cross-sectional view of the wire dust collector of the present application in different states, wherein Figure 1 a and Figure 1 b is a cross-sectional view of the wire dust collector when detecting wire dust inside the wire dust collector. Figure 1 a is the cross-sectional view of the wire dust collector when there is little wire dust. Figure 1 b is the cross-sectional view of the wire dust collector when there are many wire dusts. Figure 1 c is a cross-sectional view of the wire chip collector when the wire chips in the wire chip collector are not detected.

[0045] In order to solve the problem that the lint filter in the existing clothing processing equipment cannot be cleaned in time, thereby affecting the clothing processing effect of the clothing processing equipment, the clothing processing equipment of the present application includes a lint collector 1, a driving mechanism, a magnetic element and a magnetic sensitive element. The driving mechanism is located above or at the bottom of the lint collector 1; one of the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element is configured to be connected to the output end of the driving mechanism, and enters and exits the lint collector 1 under the drive of the driving mechanism.

[0046] After the clothing processing program is finished, the present application controls the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element to enter the lint collector 1, shortening the distance between the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element. In the process of shortening the distance between the magnetic element and the magnetic sensitive element, the magnetic flux of the magnetic sensitive element will change, thereby forming an electric current in the magnetic sensitive element. When there are relatively few lint chips in the lint collector 1, the current caused by the lack of lint chips is relatively large, and when there are relatively many lint chips in the lint collector 1, the current caused by the lack of lint chips is relatively small due to the obstruction of the lint chips. Therefore, by comparing the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element with the preset current, it can be determined whether the lint collector 1 needs to be cleaned, so that the lint collector 1 can be cleaned in time to ensure the cleanliness of the lint collector 1, so as to avoid affecting the smooth circulation of hot air, thereby affecting the processing effect of the clothing processing equipment.

[0047] See below for further reference Figure 1 , a preferred embodiment of the clothes dryer of the present application is introduced. Those skilled in the art will understand that the embodiments described below are only used to illustrate the principles of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. On the premise that the clothes dryer at least includes a lint collector 1, a driving mechanism, a magnetic element, and a magnetic sensitive element, those skilled in the art can adjust the following settings so that the present application can be applied to more specific application scenarios.

[0048] Combination Figure 1The clothes dryer includes an equipment body, a lint collector 1, a driving mechanism, a magnetic ball 3, a magnetoresistor 4 and a reminder component. Among them, the lint collector 1, the driving mechanism, the magnetic ball 3, the magnetoresistor 4 are all arranged in the equipment body, and the reminder component is arranged on the equipment body. The driving mechanism includes a stepper motor and a rope body 2, the output end of the stepper motor is connected to the first end of the rope body 2, and the second end of the rope body 2 is connected to the magnetic ball 3. The stepper motor is arranged on the outer top surface of the lint collector 1, and the magnetoresistor 4 is arranged on the lower bottom surface of the lint collector 1, so that when the stepper motor reels or releases the rope body 2, the magnetic ball 3 can enter and exit the lint collector 1. When the lint in the lint collector 1 is not detected, the rope body 2 is wound around the output end of the stepper motor, and the magnetic ball 3 is located above the lint collector 1 with the rope body 2 (such as Figure 1 c). When detecting the wire scraps in the wire scrap collector 1, when the amount of wire scraps in the wire scrap collector 1 is small, the stepper motor releases the rope body 2, so that the magnetic ball 3 can descend, so that the distance between the magnetic ball 3 and the magnetic sensitive resistor 4 becomes smaller (as shown in FIG. Figure 1 a), since the amount of wire scraps in the wire scrap collector 1 is small, the distance between the magnetic ball 3 and the magnetic sensitive resistor 4 is small. When the amount of wire scraps in the wire scrap collector 1 is large, the magnetic ball 3 is blocked by the wire scraps, so that the distance between the magnetic ball 3 and the magnetic sensitive resistor 4 is large (as shown in FIG. Figure 1 b).

[0049] Of course, the specific setting of the stepper motor in this application is not fixed, and those skilled in the art can adjust it as needed. For example, the stepper motor can be set on the inner top surface of the online chip collector 1, or set inside the device body. In addition, the setting position of the magnetoresistor 4 in this application is not fixed, and those skilled in the art can adjust it according to the setting needs. For example, the magnetoresistor 4 can also be set inside the device body, as long as the magnetoresistor 4 is located directly below the magnetic ball 3. In addition, the specific setting positions of the magnetoresistor 4 and the magnetic ball 3 in this application are not fixed, and those skilled in the art can adjust it according to the situation. For example, the stepper motor can be connected to the magnetoresistor 4 through a rope body, and the magnetic ball 3 is set on the lower bottom surface of the online chip collector 1.

[0050] In addition, the specific setting form of the driving mechanism is not fixed in this application, and those skilled in the art can adjust it according to the setting needs. For example, the driving mechanism is a telescopic mechanism, and the output end of the telescopic mechanism is connected to the magnetic ball 3, so that the output end of the telescopic mechanism can drive the magnetic ball 3 in and out of the wire dust collector 1 during the reciprocating motion. Alternatively, the driving mechanism is a telescopic mechanism, and the output end of the telescopic mechanism is connected to the magnetic sensitive resistor 4, so that the output end of the telescopic mechanism can drive the magnetic sensitive resistor 4 in and out of the wire dust collector 1 during the reciprocating motion.

[0051] It should be noted that the present application has no restrictions on the reminder component, as long as it can remind the user to clean the lint collector 1. For example, the reminder component can be a horn, a speaker, a flashing light, or a reminder message transmitter, etc. The flashing light can remind the user in the form of a reminder light, the horn and the speaker can remind the user in the form of a reminder sound, and the reminder message transmitter can remind the user by sending a reminder message to the user terminal.

[0052] It should also be noted that the present application has no restrictions on the stepper motor, as long as it has the function of forward and reverse rotation. For example, the stepper motor can be a three-phase stepper motor.

[0053] See also Figure 1 The wire scrap collector 1 includes a body with a cavity, and a hole is opened on the top of the body for the rope body 2 and the magnetic ball 3 to pass through. When the rope body 2 is driven by the stepper motor, it can be wound around the output end of the stepper motor, so that the magnetic ball 3 moves upward, or the rope body 2 wound around the output end of the stepper motor can be released under the drive of the stepper motor, so that the magnetic ball 3 moves downward.

[0054] It should be noted that when the stepper motor is arranged inside the wire dust collector 1, the top surface of the wire dust collector 1 may not have a hole through which the rope 2 or the magnetic ball 3 can pass. When the stepper motor is arranged inside the device body, the top surface of the wire dust collector 1 may have a hole through which the rope 2 or the magnetic ball 3 can pass.

[0055] It should also be noted that a rotating shaft can be set at the output end of the stepper motor so that the rotating shaft can rotate under the drive of the stepper motor, and the first end of the rope body 2 can be connected to the rotating shaft so that the rope body 2 can be reeled or released on the rotating shaft under the drive of the driving motor.

[0056] Combination Figure 2 The control method of the clothes dryer of the present application is introduced. Figure 2 This is a flow chart of the control method of the clothes dryer of the present application.

[0057] The present application provides a control method for a clothes dryer, wherein the clothes dryer is the clothes dryer in any of the above embodiments, and the control method for the clothes dryer includes:

[0058] S101, after the laundry processing program of the laundry processing device is finished, the driving mechanism is controlled to drive the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element into the lint collector 1. For example, the laundry processing device is a clothes dryer, the laundry processing program is a clothes drying program, and a telescopic mechanism can be further configured in the magnetic element, through which the magnetic element can be controlled to approach or move away from the magnetic sensitive element.

[0059] S102, detecting the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element. For example, by configuring an ammeter, the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element can be detected.

[0060] S103, comparing the magnitude of the real-time current with the preset current. For example, after detecting the real-time current of the magnetic sensor, the magnitude of the real-time current with the preset current is determined by comparing whether the difference between the real-time current and the preset current is greater than 0, or whether the ratio between the real-time current and the preset current is greater than 1.

[0061] S104, according to the comparison result, remind the user to clean the lint collector 1. For example, after the magnitude of the real-time current and the preset current is obtained, the user can be reminded to clean the lint collector 1 by means of a prompt sound.

[0062] In the present application, the driving mechanism can drive the magnetic sensitive element or the magnetic element to enter and exit the lint collector 1, so that the magnetic element can approach or move away from the magnetic sensitive element. In the process of the magnetic element approaching the magnetic sensitive element, the magnetic flux of the magnetic sensitive element changes, thereby forming an electric current in the magnetic sensitive element. When there are relatively few lint chips in the lint collector 1, the current caused by the lack of lint chips is relatively large, and when there are relatively many lint chips in the lint collector 1, the magnetic element cannot cause or causes a relatively small current due to the obstruction of the lint chips. Therefore, by comparing the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element with the preset current, the user is selectively reminded to clean the lint collector 1, so that the lint collector 1 can be cleaned in time to ensure the cleanliness of the lint collector 1, so as to avoid affecting the smooth circulation of hot air, thereby affecting the processing effect of the clothing processing equipment.

[0063] The preferred implementation of the control method of the clothing processing device of the present application is introduced below.

[0064] In one embodiment, before the step of “detecting the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element”, the step further includes:

[0065] Get the running time of the driving mechanism;

[0066] Compare the running time with the preset time;

[0067] When the running time is greater than or equal to the preset time, the driving mechanism is controlled to stop working.

[0068] For example, the driving mechanism is a stepper motor and a rope 2, the preset time is 2s, the magnetic element is a magnetic ball 3, and the magnetic sensitive element is a magnetoresistor 4. After obtaining the stepping time of the stepper motor, the stepping time is compared with the preset time. When the stepping time is greater than or equal to 2s, it means that the rope 2 is completely released. At this time, there is no problem of low current of the magnetoresistor 4 due to the large distance between the magnetoresistor 4 and the magnetic ball 3 caused by the incomplete release of the rope 2, so that the current of the magnetoresistor 4 can be made more accurate. At this time, the stepper motor is controlled to stop working, and the rope 2 on the magnetic ball 3 is no longer released. It should be noted that the forward and reverse directions of the stepper motor are set at intervals, and the stepping time in the two directions is the same to achieve the winding or release of the rope.

[0069] In one embodiment, the step of “selectively reminding the user to clean the lint collector 1 according to the comparison result” further includes:

[0070] When the real-time current is greater than or equal to the preset current, the control driving mechanism drives the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element to extend to the wire scrap collector 1;

[0001] When the real-time current is less than the preset current, the user is reminded to clean the wire dust collector 1. For example, the driving mechanism is a stepper motor and a rope body 2, the magnetic element is a magnetic ball 3, the magnetic sensitive element is a magnetoresistor 4, and the preset current is 10mA. When the real-time current is greater than or equal to 10mA, it means that there is no obstruction of wire dust, the distance between the magnetic ball 3 and the magnetoresistor 4 is relatively small, and there are few wire dusts in the wire dust collector 1, so there is no need to clean the wire dust collector 1, so the stepper motor is controlled to reel in the rope body 2, so that the magnetic ball 3 rises and moves away from the magnetoresistor 4. When the real-time current is less than 10mA, it means that there are more wire dusts in the wire dust collector 1. Even if the rope body 2 is completely released, the distance between the magnetic ball 3 and the magnetoresistor 4 is relatively large due to the obstruction of the wire dust, and the wire dust collector 1 needs to be cleaned, so the user is reminded to clean the wire dust collector 1.

[0071] In one embodiment, after the step of “when the real-time current is less than the preset current, reminding the user to clean the wire scrap collector 1”, the following steps are further included:

[0072] The control driving mechanism drives the magnetic element or the magnetic sensitive element to extend to the wire scrap collector 1 .

[0073] For example, the driving mechanism is a stepper motor and a rope body 2, the magnetic element is a magnetic ball 3, the magnetic sensitive element is a magnetoresistor 4, and the preset current is 10mA. When the real-time current is less than 10mA, after reminding the user to clean the lint collector 1, the stepper motor is controlled to reel in the rope body 2, so that the magnetic ball 3 rises, thereby facilitating the user to clean the lint collector 1.

[0074] In one embodiment, the step of “reminding the user to clean the lint collector 1” specifically includes:

[0075] The user is prompted to clean the lint collector 1 by means of a prompt sound, a prompt light or a reminder message sent to the user terminal.

[0076] When it is necessary to remind the user to clean the lint in the lint collector 1, the user can be reminded by emitting a reminder sound, a reminder light, or sending a reminder message to the user terminal.

[0077] Combine the following Figure 3 , a possible operation process of the clothes dryer of the present application is briefly described. Among them, Figure 3 A logic diagram of a possible implementation of the control method for a clothes dryer of the present application.

[0078] like Figure 3 As shown, in one possible operation process:

[0079] S201, after the drying program of the clothes dryer is finished, the stepper motor is controlled to release the rope body 2, so that the magnetic ball 3 descends, and then S202 is executed.

[0080] S202, obtaining the running time of the stepper motor, and then executing S203.

[0081] S203, determine whether the running time is greater than or equal to the preset time. If yes, execute S204; if not, execute S202.

[0082] S204, control the stepper motor to stop working, and then execute S205.

[0083] S205, detecting the real-time current of the magnetic sensitive element, and then executing S206.

[0084] S206, determine whether the real-time current is less than the preset current. If yes, execute S207; otherwise, execute S208.

[0085] S207, controlling the reminder information transmitter to send a reminder information to the user terminal to remind the user to clean the lint collector 1, and then executing S208.
