[0058] Drying equipment such as clothes dryers need to be able to accurately judge the dryness of clothes so that they can be dried intactly at the lowest cost. If the dryness is too low, the clothes will be damp, and if the dryness is too high, the clothes will be easily wrinkled. However, existing drying equipment only judges by drying time and drying temperature, and stops drying when the drying time or drying temperature reaches a predetermined condition. It lacks adaptive ability and has a low accuracy in judging the dryness of clothes.

[0059] The present application provides a control method, a control device and a drying device for drying equipment to solve the problem that the existing drying equipment has low accuracy in judging the dryness of clothes. Figure 1-5 Provide explanation.

[0060] The control method of the drying device provided in the embodiment of the present application can be applied to the drying device. Exemplarily, the drying device includes a drying drum and a blowing device. The drying drum is used to accommodate and dry the clothes to be dried. The blowing device can be an axial flow fan or a blower, etc., which can provide a large wind force to blow the clothes in the drying drum to try to blow the clothes up. The drying device is equipped with a ranging sensor, which can be used to detect the height to which the clothes are blown up.

[0061] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flow chart of a control method for a drying device provided in an embodiment of the present application, wherein the control method for the drying device comprises:

[0062] S101: Acquire first weight information of clothing;

[0063] Exemplarily, the drying device has a built-in weight sensor. Before the drying process begins, the clothes can be weighed by the weight sensor to determine first weight information as a basis for subsequent drying judgment. The first weight information is the initial weight of the clothes before drying.

[0064] S102: Determine a height threshold based on the first weight information;

[0065] The height threshold represents the height to which the clothes having the first weight information before drying can be blown up by the blowing device after drying. Optionally, the relationship between the first weight information and the height threshold can be obtained through experiments, or pre-set by a technician based on experience, or can be modified by a user during use, which is not specifically limited in this embodiment.

[0066] S103: Turn on the blowing device and obtain the height information of the clothes being blown up;

[0067] It can be understood that step S103 is executed after the drying drum executes the drying program to dry the clothes. After the drying drum completes the preset drying program, the clothes have been heated and rotated, and most of the moisture in the clothes has been removed. At this time, the blowing device can be turned on, and the height information of the clothes being blown up can be detected by the ranging device. The ranging device can be an ultrasonic sensor, an infrared sensor, a radar ranging device or a laser rangefinder, etc.

[0068] It is understandable that the height information is the height of the clothes from the bottom of the drying drum after being blown up. For example, since the heights of the clothes at different locations may be inconsistent after being blown up, the number of distance measuring devices may be one or more, and the height information may be the lowest height, highest height or average height of the clothes after being blown up, etc., which can be set according to specific needs.

[0069] In an optional embodiment, before step S103, the control method further includes: determining a first drying time of the clothes based on the first weight information; and controlling the drying device to run for the first drying time.

[0070] In this embodiment, after obtaining the first weight information (initial weight) of the clothes, the required first drying time (pre-drying time) is estimated according to the first weight information of the clothes. According to the determined first drying time, the drying device starts to execute the drying program to dry the clothes. The drying method may include heating and rotating the drying drum.

[0071] In this way, the drying equipment first performs a preliminary drying process according to the initial weight of the clothes, and then accurately determines the dryness of the clothes through the blowing device and the distance measuring device, which can better control the drying time, improve the drying efficiency, avoid insufficient drying or excessive drying time, reduce unnecessary energy consumption, and save energy.

[0072] Exemplarily, the material and type of clothing (such as tops, pants or jackets, etc.) can also be taken into consideration in this process. For example, heavier clothing or materials with higher water absorption may require longer drying time.

[0073] In an optional embodiment, after executing the first drying time of the drying program and before step S103, the control method may also include: obtaining second weight information of the clothes after drying; when the second weight information is greater than or equal to the first weight information, controlling the drying equipment to send a drying abnormality warning message; when the second weight information is less than the first weight information, turning on the blowing device and executing step S103.

[0074] In this embodiment, after the first drying time is executed, the drying program is paused, and the drying device weighs the clothes again through the built-in weight sensor or weighing module to obtain the second weight information of the clothes after drying, in order to check the moisture removal of the clothes during the drying process.

[0075] When it is detected that the second weight information is greater than or equal to the first weight information, the moisture content of the surface clothes has not decreased after drying, which may be because there is a problem in the drying process and the pre-drying fails. For example, it may include but is not limited to a heating element failure, the drying drum door is not tightly closed, etc. At this time, the drying device can send a drying abnormality warning message. The warning message can be a sound prompt, a warning message on the display screen, or a notification message sent to the user's mobile terminal (such as a mobile phone), reminding the user to check the drying device or restart the drying program, which is conducive to more effective monitoring of the drying process, timely detection of faults and taking measures.

[0076] When it is detected that the second weight information is less than the first weight information, it indicates that the drying process is running normally and the moisture in the clothes has been partially or basically removed. At this time, step S103 can be executed to detect the dryness of the clothes.

[0077] In other optional implementations, the drying device may also determine whether an abnormality occurs in the drying process based on the degree of change of the second weight information compared to the first weight information (such as a weight difference or a weight change rate), which is not elaborated in this embodiment.

[0078] S104: Determine the drying result of the clothes based on the height information and the height threshold;

[0079] In an optional embodiment, the method for determining the drying result of clothes may include: when the height information is greater than or equal to the height threshold, determining the drying result as dried; when the height information is less than the height threshold, determining the drying result as undried.

[0080] In this embodiment, if the height information is greater than or equal to the height threshold, this indicates that the clothes have reached a sufficient degree of dryness, so the drying device determines the drying result as "dried"; if the height information is less than the height threshold, this indicates that the degree of dryness of the clothes has not reached the expected level, so the device determines the drying result as "undried".

[0081] The above method of judging the dryness of clothes based on height information provides an intuitive and reliable detection standard for drying equipment, which helps to avoid the defects of over-drying or under-drying of drying equipment, effectively protects clothes and improves energy saving effects.

[0082] S105: Based on the drying result, control the operation of the drying equipment.

[0083] In an optional embodiment, step S105 may include: when the drying result is dried, keeping the blowing device turned on, and driving the drying drum to rotate to shake the clothes.

[0084] In this embodiment, when it is determined that the clothes have been dried, the blowing device can continue to be turned on, and the motor of the drying device can drive the drying drum to rotate forward and reverse at a certain speed and a certain rotation-stop ratio, and reciprocate for several times to shake the clothes. For example, the blowing device is turned on, and the motor controls the drying drum to rotate forward and reverse at a speed of 50r / min and a rotation-stop ratio of 3s:2s (rotate for 3s and stop for 2 seconds), and the number of forward and reverse rotations is 10 times.

[0085] Since a blowing device is provided, it can cooperate with the drying drum to shake the clothes after drying, help to separate the clothes better, reduce entanglement, speed up the shaking efficiency, and cooperate with blowing to reduce wrinkles between clothes, make them more fluffy and comfortable, and improve the user experience.

[0086] In an optional embodiment, step S105 may include: when the drying result is not dried, determining the second drying time based on the first weight information and the difference between the height threshold and the height information; turning off the blowing device, and controlling the drying equipment to continue running for the second drying time; turning on the blowing device, and driving the drying drum to rotate to shake the clothes.

[0087] In this embodiment, when it is detected that the clothes are not dried, the second drying time is calculated by an algorithm using the first weight information obtained and the difference between the preset height threshold and the actual height information, and then the blowing device is turned off, and the drying device is continued to be controlled to dry the clothes until the drying time reaches the second drying time, and the clothes are further dried. After the second drying time is over, the blowing device is turned on again, and the drying drum is driven to rotate to shake the clothes loose and improve the fluffiness of the clothes.

[0088] In an optional embodiment, the second drying time is determined based on the first weight information and the difference between the height threshold and the height information, including: determining a time coefficient based on the first weight information; and taking the product of the difference and the time coefficient as the second drying time.

[0089] In this embodiment, the time coefficient reflects the relationship between the weight of the clothes and the required drying time. The heavier the weight, the longer the drying time is usually required. The difference between the height threshold and the height information represents the difference between the actual drying degree of the clothes and the expected drying degree. The second drying time is obtained by multiplying the difference by the time coefficient. The second drying time takes into account the type of clothes and the degree of insufficient drying, and can more accurately reflect the additional drying time required for the clothes.

[0090] Optionally, the corresponding relationship between the first weight information and the time coefficient may be predetermined based on experiments or experience, and the calculation method thereof may be calculated by an algorithm formula or obtained by looking up a table.

[0091] Specifically, taking a clothes dryer as an example, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the specific control process of the clothes dryer may include: after the clothes dryer is started, wet clothes to be dried are put in, and the clothes are weighed to obtain first weight information w in , according to the first weight information w in Get the pre-drying time, that is, the first drying time t pre , distance threshold, that is, height threshold L thand time coefficient k, these three parameters are obtained through experiments. Then the time length t pre After the pre-baking process, weigh again to obtain the second weight information w1. When the second weight information w1 is not less than w in If the weighing result w1 is less than w in When the inner drum of the dryer is controlled to be stationary, the blowing device is started, and the distance measuring device is started after the air volume stabilizes to measure the distance L1 of the clothes being blown, and then the difference between the height threshold and the height information ΔL=L th -L1, when ΔL is not greater than 0, it means that the clothes have reached the drying requirements, and the blowing device is started at this time, and the shaking action is performed at the same time. When ΔL is greater than 0, it means that the clothes have not yet reached the drying requirements, and the drying step needs to be continued. The drying time t is proportional to ΔL, t=k*ΔL. Finally, the blowing device is started, and the process of blowing and shaking begins to make the clothes more fluffy.

[0092] In an optional embodiment, the control method further includes: determining a target air volume of the blowing device based on the first weight information; and controlling the blowing device to operate at the target air volume after the blowing device is turned on.

[0093] It is understandable that in this embodiment, the size of the target air volume F can be determined based on the initial weight of the clothes before drying, that is, the first weight information. The heavier the clothes, the greater the air volume required to blow the clothes up, and a larger air volume is also required during the shaking process. The air volume of the blowing device under different working conditions is adaptively adjusted based on the weight of the clothes, which increases the scope of application of the drying equipment control method of this embodiment.

[0094] In some embodiments, the blowing device of the drying equipment is not turned on during the drying process, that is, the clothes are dried only by the drying module of the drying equipment itself; in other optional embodiments, the blowing device can be turned on appropriately during the drying process to improve the drying efficiency. The specific control method can be designed according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not make specific limitations on this.

[0095] In an optional embodiment, for the same clothes with different moisture contents, the pre-drying time is different, the index for judging whether the drying requirement is met is different, and the coefficient for the continued drying time is also different. It can be understood as: f(w in )=(t pre , L th , k), because the dryness of the clothes is not measured immediately after they are put into the dryer, but after they are pre-dried for a specific period of time, and the dryness judgment results obtained by different Lth are different.

[0096] For example, condition A: 1 shirt, initial water content 200 grams. Condition B: 1 shirt, initial water content 300 grams. If the weight of the shirt is 300 grams, the initial weighing result of A is 500 grams, and the initial weighing result of B is 600 grams. The parameters configured for A are: t preA =20min, L thA =2cm, k A =20; the parameters configured for B are: t preB =30min, L thB =1.5cm, k B =25; then each operates according to the control method of the above-mentioned drying equipment.

[0097] In another optional embodiment, when the weighing results of one piece of clothing and two pieces of clothing are the same, the pre-drying time t pre , distance threshold L th The time coefficient k is the same, but the height information L1 detected later is different, so the process during the second drying is also different.

[0098] For example, condition A: 1 pair of wet pants, initial weight 600g. Condition B: 2 wet shirts, initial weight 600g. The parameters configured for A and B can be: pre =30min, L th =2cm, k=20;

[0099] After pre-drying for 30 minutes, turn on the blower to blow the clothes. If the distance measuring device measures L 1A =1.8cm, L 1B =1.5cm, that is, at this time, the dryness of A is greater than that of B. The time for the secondary drying of A is 20*(2.0-1.8)=4min, and the time for the secondary drying of B is 20*(2.0-1.5)=10min.

[0100] The control method of the drying device provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to the drying device, the drying device includes a drying drum and a blowing device, the blowing device is used to blow air to the clothes in the drying drum to try to blow up the clothes, and the control method includes: obtaining the first weight information of the clothes; determining the height threshold based on the first weight information; turning on the blowing device and obtaining the height information of the clothes being blown up; determining the drying result of the clothes based on the height information and the height threshold; and controlling the operation of the drying device based on the drying result. Based on the principle that under the conditions of the same amount of measured clothes and a certain air volume, the higher the clothes are blown, the drier the clothes are, by setting the blowing device to blow up the dried clothes, and detecting the height of the clothes being blown up to detect the dryness of the clothes, it can more accurately reflect the actual dryness of the clothes and improve the accuracy of the detection of the dryness of the clothes.

[0101] In a second aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a control device for a drying device, which is applied to the drying device. The drying device includes a drying drum and a blowing device, and the blowing device is used to blow air to the clothes in the drying drum to try to blow up the clothes.

[0106] The control module 305 is used to control the operation of the drying equipment based on the drying result.
