In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0045] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "setting", and "connection" 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 direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal connection of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0046] In order to solve the problem that a shoe care system is prone to inadequate local care, the present embodiment discloses a shoe care system, which includes a care device 1, a cloud 2 and a client 3.
[0047] The nursing device 1 is specifically a smart shoe cabinet or a shoe washing machine. The nursing device 1 comprises a device body 13, a nursing module 11, an image acquisition module 12, a communication module and a control module.
[0048] The interior of the device body 13 can accommodate shoes and can take care of the shoes.
[0049] The care module 11 can take care of the shoes inside the device body 13. The care operations specifically include but are not limited to: cleaning the surface of the shoes or wiping the shoes, disinfection, deodorization, mildew prevention and moisture removal, etc. In one embodiment, disinfection and deodorization are performed by delivering ozone to the shoes inside the device body 13; the shoes are dried by delivering hot air or by a heating element, thereby achieving mildew prevention and moisture removal. Of course, the present invention does not impose any restrictions on the specific implementation of the care operation. The care module 11 can obviously also achieve the functions of cleaning the surface of the shoes, disinfection, deodorization, mildew prevention and moisture removal, etc. in other ways. These changes obviously do not deviate from the basic principles of the present invention and belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
[0050] Furthermore, the care module 11 can perform overall care for the shoes inside the device body 13, and can also perform regional care for the shoes. In other words, the care module 11 can perform care for a designated area on the shoes. Specifically, the care module 11 can move to a designated area of the shoes to perform care for the designated area. Specifically, the care module 11 implements the cleaning operation through a cleaning unit. In one embodiment, the care module 11 includes a cleaning unit, and a cleaning unit can clean different areas of the shoes by moving to different positions; in another embodiment, the care module 11 includes multiple cleaning units, each of which cleans a specific area of the shoes.
[0051] Furthermore, the care device 1 can obtain the care status of the shoes.
[0052] In one embodiment, the image acquisition module 12 of the care device 1 can acquire an image of the shoe, and the care status of the shoe can be acquired based on the image. Specifically, the image can show whether the surface of the shoe is clean or other care status.
[0053] In another embodiment, the cloud 2 can obtain the care area and care intensity recorded by the care module 11, analyze the care situation of the shoes according to the care area and care intensity, and generate virtual shoes according to the care situation, and the care situation of the shoes is shown on the virtual shoes. Alternatively, the care module 11 can perform care on different areas of the shoes with different intensities, and the care module 11 can also record the care area and the care time and care intensity of each of the care areas. For cleaning operations, the care module 11 can record the areas cleaned by the cleaning unit, as well as the cleaning intensity and cleaning time for each area. By comprehensively analyzing the care area, care time and care intensity, the care situation of the shoes can be obtained. In other words, when there are areas on the shoes that have not been cared for or areas with low care intensity, it means that the care is not in place.
[0054] The communication module can transmit information with other parts of the shoe care system. In this embodiment, the communication module is a WiFi module. Of course, the present invention does not impose any restrictions on the specific structure of the communication module. The communication module can obviously also be a Bluetooth module, a Zigbee module, a LoRa module, a Cellular module, a Z-Wave module, etc., as long as the communication module can achieve the effect of transmitting information. These changes obviously do not deviate from the basic principles of the present invention and belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
[0055] The care module 11, the image acquisition module 12, and the communication module are all electrically connected to the control module. The control module is configured as a control method for the shoe care system, which will be described in detail later.
[0056] The cloud 2 can transmit information with the nursing device 1 through the communication module. The cloud 2 can also generate virtual shoes according to the shoe care conditions obtained from the nursing device 1.
[0057] In one embodiment, the cloud 2 can receive the shoe image acquired by the image acquisition module 12, and can also generate virtual shoes according to the shoe care conditions shown on the image. The virtual shoe is specifically a shoe graphic that can be displayed on the screen. The virtual shoe is similar or identical in shape to the actual shoe in the care device, and the virtual shoe can show the care conditions of the corresponding area of the actual shoe. This method of generating a virtual object based on an image is the same as the virtual object generation method in the prior art, and its specific method is not repeated here. Further, the care conditions of the shoe are shown on the virtual shoe. In one embodiment, the virtual shoe can show the position where the surface of the actual shoe is not cleaned, or other positions where care is not in place. Specifically, the virtual shoe can identify the position where care is not in place on the actual shoe according to the shoe image acquired by the image acquisition module 12, and mark the corresponding position of the virtual shoe with a special color. Among them, the method of identifying the position where care is not in place according to the image is the same as the image recognition method in the prior art, and its specific method is not repeated here. Of course, the present invention does not impose any limitation on the specific manner in which the virtual shoes display the shoe care conditions. Obviously, the shoe care conditions may also be displayed in other ways, for example, directly displaying the image of the actual shoe on the virtual shoe. These changes obviously do not deviate from the basic principles of the present invention and fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0058] In summary, the cloud 2 can generate virtual shoes by any of the above three methods, and display the care status on the virtual shoes. The cloud 2 can also generate virtual shoes by combining the above three methods, or generate three virtual shoes at the same time, and the user can switch to display the three virtual shoes. It can be understood by those skilled in the art that the present invention does not impose any limitation on the specific method of generating virtual shoes, and other methods can obviously be used as long as the care effect of the shoes can be displayed on the virtual shoes.
[0059] The client 3 is specifically a portable device or an APP. The client 3 can display the virtual shoes generated by the cloud 2. The user can view the virtual shoes through the client 3, and determine the enhanced care area according to the shoe care situation shown by the virtual shoes. In other words, the user identifies the area where care is not in place based on the virtual shoes, and selects the area where care is not in place for enhanced care. The client 3 can also transmit the enhanced care area selected by the user to the nursing device 1, so that the nursing device 1 performs care on the enhanced care area. Specifically, after receiving the enhanced care area selected by the user, the client 3 sends the enhanced care area to the cloud 2, and the cloud 2 sends the enhanced care area to the nursing device 1, and the nursing device 1 performs care operations on the enhanced care area of the shoes.
[0060] Reference Figure 1 The control method adopted by the above-mentioned shoe care system includes the following steps:
[0061] S1: Obtaining the care status of the shoe. Specifically, the care device 1 obtains the care status of the shoe. Then S2 is executed.

[0063] S3: Acquire the virtual shoes, and determine the enhanced care area of the shoes that needs to be cared for again according to the care situation of the virtual shoes. Specifically, the user views the virtual shoes through the client 3, and the virtual shoes show the care situation of the shoes. The user determines the enhanced care area of the shoes according to the care situation of the virtual shoes. Then execute S4.
[0064] S4: performing care on the enhanced care area. Specifically, the care device 1 performs care on the enhanced care area. After obtaining the enhanced care area selected by the user, the care device 1 performs care on the enhanced care area of the shoe.
[0065] The control method of the shoe care system enables the user to obtain the shoe care status through the virtual shoe, and select the enhanced care area according to the actual shoe care status, so that the care device 1 can perform care on the enhanced care area, thereby solving the problem of inadequate care and improving the care effect and user experience. In addition, the step of generating the virtual shoe according to the shoe care status by the cloud 2 can solve the problem that it is inconvenient for the user to observe the care status when the shoe is in the device body 13, and can also enable the user to view the shoe care status without limiting the distance, making the shoe care system more convenient.
