[0038] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

In the description of the embodiments of the present application, unless otherwise specified, " / " means or, for example, A / B can mean A or B; "and / or" in this article is only a description of the association relationship of the associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B can mean: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, in order to facilitate the clear description of the technical solution of the embodiments of the present application, in the embodiments of the present application, the words "first", "second" and the like are used to distinguish between the same items or similar items with basically the same functions and effects. Those skilled in the art can understand that the words "first", "second" and the like do not limit the quantity and execution order, and the words "first", "second" and the like do not limit them to be necessarily different.

[0040] In addition, the terms "comprises," "comprising," and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or apparatus that includes a series of steps or elements is not necessarily limited to those steps or elements explicitly listed, but may include other steps or elements not explicitly listed or inherent to such process, method, product, or apparatus.

[0041] In the related art, when steam care is performed on clothes using steam generated by heating water entering the bottom of the outer drum, the water at the bottom of the drum heats up quickly, while the temperature rise rate of the drum wall cannot keep up with the temperature rise rate of the water at the bottom of the drum, resulting in a large temperature difference between the water temperature at the bottom of the drum and the inner wall of the drum. The steam generated at the bottom of the drum is easily condensed into condensed water on the inner wall of the drum, thereby wetting the clothes, causing uneven humidification of the steam on the clothes and reducing the steam care effect.

[0042] In order to solve the above technical problems, this embodiment proposes a steam care method for a clothes processing device, wherein the clothes processing device includes a first steam care mode, and the first steam care mode includes:

[0043] Controlling water inflow into the outer cylinder, when the water level in the outer cylinder is at the heating water level, controlling the heating device at the bottom of the outer cylinder to heat the water to generate steam, the heating water level is higher than the heating device and not higher than the lowest position of the inner cylinder;

[0044] The water temperature and the wall temperature of the inner tube are obtained, and the heating rhythm of the heating device is controlled according to the water temperature and the wall temperature.

[0045] In the process of using the water in the outer drum to heat the steam to perform steam care on the clothes in this embodiment, the water temperature and the temperature of the inner drum wall are monitored to control the heating rhythm of the heating device, so that the heating rate of the inner wall of the inner drum matches the heating rate of the water at the bottom of the drum, thereby reducing the temperature difference between the inner wall of the inner drum and the steam, reducing the generation of condensed water on the inner wall of the inner drum, improving the uniformity of steam humidification of clothes, and improving the steam care effect.

[0046] Furthermore, the first steam care mode also includes:

[0047] Obtain the moisture content of the clothes, and determine the target speed of the inner drum according to the moisture content of the clothes;

[0048] Control the inner drum to rotate at the target speed.

[0049] This embodiment controls the target speed of the inner drum according to the moisture content of the clothes, so that the clothes can be thrown and stretched under different moisture contents, which is conducive to better absorption of steam, smoothing wrinkles, and further improving the steam care effect on the clothes.

[0050] The technical solution of this embodiment is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following implementation modes and examples can be combined with each other if there is no conflict.

[0051] First, a brief introduction is given to the implementation subject of the steam care method of this embodiment.

[0052] The steam care method of this embodiment is applied to a clothing treatment device, which may be a washing machine, a washer-dryer or a clothes dryer with a steam care function. The structure of the clothing treatment device may be a drum type or a pulsator type. The following describes the structure of the clothing treatment device by taking a drum washing machine as an example:

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, the clothing processing device includes a housing 1, an outer cylinder, an inner cylinder 3 and a heating device 4. The housing 1 includes a front panel 11, and the front panel 11 is provided with a display panel 12. The display panel 12 can display the clothing operation status and clothing operation parameters. The outer cylinder is arranged in the housing 1, and the inner cylinder 3 is rotatably arranged in the outer cylinder. The cylinder wall of the inner cylinder 3 is provided with a plurality of flow holes, and air or water flow can flow between the inner cylinder 3 and the outer cylinder through the flow holes. The inner wall surface of the inner cylinder 3 is provided with lifting ribs 31, and the inner cylinder 3 is rotated to realize the rubbing, stirring and beating of the clothing. The heating device 4 is arranged between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder 3, and is located at the bottom of the outer cylinder. In a preferred embodiment, a concave cavity 21 is formed at the bottom of the outer cylinder, and the heating device 4 is arranged in the concave cavity 21. Exemplarily, the heating device 4 is an electric heating tube.

[0054] Furthermore, the side wall of the inner tube is also provided with a first temperature sensor and a second temperature sensor. The first temperature sensor is used to detect the water temperature in the outer tube, and the second temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature of the inner tube wall, so as to control the heating rhythm of the heating device according to the water temperature and the inner tube inner wall temperature.

[0055] Furthermore, the clothing processing device also includes a temperature sensor, and the humidity sensor is used to detect the humidity of the clothing in the inner drum, so as to control the rotation speed of the inner drum according to the humidity of the clothing.

[0056] Furthermore, the clothing processing device also includes a steam generating device 5, and the steam outlet of the steam generating device 5 is connected to the inner drum 3 through a steam delivery pipeline 6. When performing steam care on the clothes, it can be determined according to the user's selection or the clothing material recognized by the clothing processing device whether to use the steam generated by the heating device 4 to heat the water in the outer drum to perform steam care on the clothes, or to directly use the steam generated by the steam generating device 5 to perform steam care on the clothes.

[0057] The steam care method of this embodiment is introduced in detail below.

[0058] According to an exemplary embodiment of the present application, this embodiment proposes a steam care method for a clothes treatment device, wherein the clothes treatment device includes a first steam care mode, wherein the first steam care mode is a mode for performing steam care on clothes by using steam generated by heating water at the bottom of the outer drum. Figure 2 As shown in the flowchart, the first steam care mode includes the following steps:

[0059] S21, controlling water to flow into the outer cylinder, and when the water level in the outer cylinder is at the heating water level, controlling the heating device disposed at the bottom of the outer cylinder to heat the water to generate steam, and the heating water level is higher than the heating device and not higher than the lowest position of the inner cylinder.

[0060] In this embodiment, since the steam generated by water evaporation flows from bottom to top in a natural state, in the first steam care mode, water is introduced into the outer drum and the water in the outer drum is heated to generate steam. During the process of steam flowing from bottom to top, the steam first enters the inner drum from the bottom of the outer drum through the flow holes of the inner drum, and then flows through the clothes in the inner drum to the upper part of the outer drum, thereby realizing all-round care of the clothes by steam. The heating device is arranged at the bottom of the outer drum, and directly heats the water to generate steam when the water level in the outer drum is at the heating water level.

[0061] The heating water level is higher than the heating device and not higher than the lowest position of the inner cylinder to avoid dry burning of the heating device and reduce safety hazards. The first water level is a water temperature range. When the heating device continues to heat the water and the water level is lower than the minimum value of the heating water level, water needs to be added to the outer cylinder to the maximum value of the heating water level.

[0062] It should be noted that in the first steam care mode, in the present embodiment, when water is supplied to the outer drum, in order to prevent water from flowing through the inner drum into the bottom of the outer drum and wetting the clothes in the inner drum, a water inlet pipe can be connected at the lower part of the outer drum near the bottom of the outer drum to directly supply water to the bottom of the outer drum, and the water will not enter the inner drum.

[0063] The temperature at which the heating device heats water to generate steam can be lower than the boiling point of water or higher than the boiling point of water, and can be determined according to the material of the clothing. For example, for clothing materials that are not suitable for steam care with high-temperature steam, such as silk, the heating device can be controlled to heat the water to a temperature below the boiling point to generate low-temperature steam; for clothing materials that are suitable for steam care with high-temperature steam, such as cotton, the heating device can be controlled to heat the water to the boiling point of water to generate high-temperature steam.

[0064] S22, obtaining the water temperature and the wall temperature of the inner tube, and controlling the heating rhythm of the heating device according to the water temperature and the wall temperature.

[0065] In this embodiment, the water temperature and the wall temperature of the inner drum are obtained in real time or periodically by a temperature sensor, and then the temperature difference between the water temperature and the inner wall of the inner drum is determined, so that the heating rhythm of the heating device is regulated to match the heating rate of the inner wall of the inner drum with the heating rate of the water, thereby reducing the generation of condensed water on the inner wall of the inner drum and ensuring the uniformity of moisture absorption of the clothes.

[0066] In an optional implementation, the clothing processing equipment has multiple condensation temperature differences corresponding to multiple water temperature intervals, and controls the heating rhythm of the heating device according to the water temperature and the drum wall temperature, including: determining the water temperature interval in which the water temperature is located, and determining the condensation temperature difference of the water temperature according to the water temperature interval; determining a first temperature difference between the water temperature and the drum wall temperature, and controlling the heating rhythm of the heating device according to the size of the first temperature difference and the condensation temperature difference of the water temperature.

[0067] For example, refer to Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the temperature rise curve of the water temperature T1 and the inner drum wall temperature T2 in the steam care method of this embodiment is shown. Figure 5 It can be seen that the wall temperature T2 of the inner cylinder is in a state of continuous heating, while the water temperature is heated in stages. During the heating process, there will be a temperature difference between T2 and T1. The temperature gradient demarcation point N1 is set. In the process of heating the normal temperature water to N1, the first condensation temperature difference K1 is set. When the difference between T1 and T2 is greater than K1, the water vapor will condense into condensed water. In the process of heating the water temperature from N1 to boiling to produce high-temperature steam, the second condensation temperature difference K2 is set. When the difference between T1 and T2 is greater than K2, the water vapor will condense into condensed water, where K2 is less than K1. For example, 50℃≤N1≤65℃, 5℃<K1<10℃, and 1℃<K1<5℃.

[0068] It should be noted that in Figure 5 In the example, only two different water temperature ranges are divided by N1, and different condensing temperature differences (K1 and K2) are used to define the two water temperature ranges. In actual applications, multiple water temperature ranges can be set, and multiple water temperature ranges correspond to different condensing temperature differences. And in Figure 5 In the process of heating the water at the bottom of the outer cylinder, the heating device only stopped heating twice. In actual application, the heating will be stopped for many times to ensure continuous heating without exceeding the condensation temperature difference.

[0069] In an optional implementation, the higher the water temperature, the smaller the condensation temperature difference corresponding to the water temperature range. This is because the condensation temperature difference of water vapor is different under different temperatures and humidity conditions. When the temperature is low, the water vapor evaporated from the bottom of the cylinder in the air is small and the humidity is low, so the temperature difference required for the water vapor to condense and liquefy is larger; when the temperature is high, the amount of water vapor evaporated from the bottom of the cylinder in the air is large enough and the humidity is high, so only a relatively small temperature difference is required to condense and liquefy the water vapor.

[0070] In an optional implementation, the heating rhythm of the heating device is controlled according to the size of the temperature difference and the condensing temperature difference, including: when the first temperature difference is less than or equal to the condensing temperature difference, the heating device is controlled to start heating; when the first temperature difference is greater than the condensing temperature difference, the heating device is controlled to stop heating, at which time the temperature of the inner cylinder wall will still rise, which will reduce the first temperature difference between the water temperature and the cylinder wall temperature. When the first temperature difference is reduced, heating is restarted, so that the difference between the two temperatures does not exceed the condensing temperature difference while the temperature rises, which greatly reduces the generation of condensed water.

[0071] In an optional implementation, referring to Figure 3 As shown in the flowchart, the first steam care mode also includes the following steps:

[0072] S31, obtaining the moisture content of the clothes, and determining the target speed of the inner drum according to the moisture content of the clothes;

[0073] S32, controlling the inner drum to rotate at a target speed.

[0074] In this embodiment, during the steam care process for clothes, the clothes in the inner drum will rotate with the inner drum. By monitoring the moisture content of the clothes and coordinating different inner drum rotation speeds, the clothes can be thrown and stretched at different inner drum rotation speeds. In each rotation cycle of the inner drum, the clothes can be driven by the lifting ribs from the bottom of the drum to the range of 120° to 180° for throwing and stretching, and the load will not be rolled together in the range of 0° to 90°. At least most of the clothes can be thrown and drawn in a parabolic state, thereby achieving the effect of removing wrinkles.

[0075] In an optional implementation, determining the target speed of the inner drum according to the moisture content of the clothes includes: determining the target speed of the inner drum corresponding to the current moisture content of the clothes according to the corresponding relationship between the moisture content of the clothes and the target speed of the inner drum; wherein, the larger the moisture content, the lower the target speed of the inner drum corresponding to the moisture content interval. This is because the weight of clothes will be different if the moisture content is different, and clothes of different weights require different speeds to achieve a better throwing state. Therefore, the heavier the weight of the clothes, the lower the speed of the inner drum can be used to achieve the throwing state of the clothes, and the lighter the weight of the clothes, the higher the speed of the inner drum is required to put the clothes in the throwing state.

[0076] The following table shows the optimal inner drum speed under different water content conditions according to a specific example.

[0077] Moisture content status Optimum speed / rpm When too dry 58-60 10％ 55-57 20％ 52-54 30％ 49-51 40％ 45-47

[0078] During the test phase, the inner drum speed under different moisture content states can be determined in the following manner: starting from the state where the clothes are too dry, the inner drum speed is adjusted during the inner drum rotation process, and the state of the clothes moving in the drum is determined by obtaining the image of the clothes in the inner drum. The speed range when the clothes in the inner drum are in a better state of being scattered is the target speed range under the current moisture content state, and the speed range is, for example, 58-60 speeds. After that, the moisture content of the clothes increases by 10% each time until it increases to 40%. Under each moisture content state, the inner drum speed is adjusted to observe the state of the clothes moving in the drum until a speed range with a better state of being scattered is adjusted, so as to determine the optimal speed range under each moisture content state.

[0079] The first steam care mode of this embodiment can perform steam care on any clothing, and can be directly executed when the user selects the steam care program. Alternatively, the washing machine includes multiple steam care modes, and the steam care mode to be executed can be determined according to the specific situation.

[0080] In one example, the first steam care mode is executed according to the steam care mode instruction selected by the user. For example, the control terminal of the laundry processing device has a control button for the first steam care mode, and the first steam care mode is executed after the user issues the control instruction for the first steam care mode through the control button.

[0081] In another example, referring to Figure 4 As shown in the flowchart, the steam care method also includes the following steps:

[0082] S41. Before entering the steam care, the material of the clothing is also determined;

[0083] S42: When the clothing material is the target clothing material, executing the first steam care mode.

[0084] In this embodiment, the clothing material can be input by the user through the control terminal, or detected and identified by the material detection device of the clothing treatment equipment. After the clothing material is determined, the clothing material is compared with the target clothing material stored in the controller. The target clothing material is a clothing material that is difficult to absorb steam, such as polyester, nylon, coated fabrics, etc. When the clothing material belongs to the target clothing material, the first steam care mode is automatically executed.

[0085] In other achievable embodiments, the clothing treatment device further includes a second steam care mode, which is a mode for performing steam care using steam generated by a steam generating device provided in the clothing treatment device. When steam care is required for clothing, the second steam care mode can be executed according to the steam care mode instruction selected by the user. Alternatively, when the clothing material is a material that easily absorbs steam, the second steam care mode is automatically executed.

[0086] In the above-mentioned embodiments of the present application, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant description of other embodiments. The steps shown in the relevant flow chart can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although the logical order is shown in the flow chart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that here. In other words, the order of steps described in the foregoing embodiments is only an example, and it is also within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the present application to reasonably adjust the order of steps based on the content of the embodiments of the present application.

[0087] In a specific implementation of the embodiment of the present application, combined with Figure 6 The steam care method includes the following treatment processes:

[0088] First, start by turning on the machine, select the clothing care program you need to use, put in the clothes, and start the machine. At this time, the water inlet valve lets some water into the outer drum. The amount of water is not lower than the liquid level of the heating device, nor higher than the height between the inner and outer drums. Turn on the heating device to heat the water in the outer drum. During the heating process, the temperature sensor monitors the water temperature T1 and the wall temperature T2 of the inner drum in real time. There will be a temperature difference between T1 and T2. When the water temperature is heated from room temperature to N1, T1 and T2 are gradually heated up without exceeding the first condensation temperature difference K1. Exemplarily, N1≤65℃, K1<10℃.

[0089] When the temperature difference between the water temperature T1 and the drum wall temperature T2 reaches the first condensation temperature difference K1, the drum bottom heating device is turned off and the water heating is stopped. At this time, the drum wall temperature T2 will still rise, which will reduce the temperature difference between T1 and T2. After the temperature difference is reduced, heating will be restarted, so that the difference between the water temperature T1 and the drum wall temperature T2 will not exceed the condensation temperature difference while the temperature is rising, which greatly reduces the generation of condensed water. After the water temperature T1 exceeds N1, similarly, T1 and T2 are gradually heated without exceeding the second condensation temperature difference K2. Finally, a large amount of steam is generated in the drum and the generation of condensed water is greatly reduced. At the same time, the inner drum will adapt the appropriate speed according to the moisture content of the clothes, so that the clothing load is always in a better throwing state. Then the steam care ends and the drying stage begins. Then the entire steam care process ends and the machine is turned off.

[0090] The embodiment of the present application also provides a computer-readable storage medium on which program instructions are stored. When the program instructions are executed by one or more processors, the one or more processors are used to implement the steam care method proposed above.

[0092] Specifically, Figure 7 As shown, the control device includes a processor 100, at least one communication bus 200, a user interface 300, at least one external communication interface 400 and a memory 500.
