[0049] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "contacted", 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 or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0050] In the related technology of washing machines, ultraviolet sterilization is generally used to sterilize clothes. This method of sterilizing clothes is less targeted and can only achieve a local sterilization effect on the clothes. The sterilization treatment is not sufficient.

[0051] Based on this, the following embodiments are proposed.

[0052] Embodiment 1:

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a method for treating clothes, comprising:

[0054] Get clothing material information;

[0055] According to the clothing material information, the clothing is sterilized using a preset clothing sterilization mode corresponding to the clothing material information, and the preset clothing sterilization mode is executed by the optical signal sterilization element;

[0056] There are multiple preset clothing sterilization modes, and the multiple preset clothing sterilization modes correspond to multiple sterilization radiation amounts.

[0057] In this embodiment, the method for obtaining clothing material information can be manual input, or other methods can be used to detect clothing materials through certain detection equipment and detection means, thereby obtaining clothing material information. According to the clothing material information, the preset clothing sterilization mode corresponding to the clothing material information is used to sterilize the clothing, and the preset clothing sterilization mode is executed by the light signal sterilization component; there are multiple preset clothing sterilization modes, and multiple preset clothing sterilization modes correspond to multiple sterilization radiation amounts. That is, in this clothing processing method, the clothing material information is used to select preset clothing sterilization modes with different sterilization radiation amounts for different clothing materials to sterilize the clothing. Because different clothing materials have different characteristics such as different thickness, porosity, degree of contamination, etc., selecting a preset clothing sterilization mode with a suitable sterilization radiation amount for different clothing materials can sterilize the clothing more fully and specifically, thereby improving the cleanliness of the clothing.

[0058] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment,

[0059] Obtaining clothing material information includes: obtaining a parameter value characterizing the clothing material and determining a preset target range in which the parameter value lies, wherein the parameter value is determined based on a light signal collected by an optical signal detection component during a clothing material detection stage, and determining the clothing material information based on a correspondence between the preset target range in which the parameter value lies and the clothing material.

[0060] In this embodiment, the parameter value is determined based on the optical signal collected by the optical signal detection component during the clothing material detection stage. The optical signal detection component is composed of an emitter and a receiver. The emitter is controlled to emit an optical signal to the clothing. The optical signal illuminates the clothing, and a portion of the optical signal is blocked and reflected by the clothing. The reflected optical signal is received by the receiver of the optical signal detection component. A portion of the optical signal penetrates the clothing, and the rest is absorbed by the clothing. Clothes of different materials have different reflective abilities to optical signals. By utilizing the difference in reflective abilities of clothes of different materials to optical signals, the clothing material information can be determined based on the correspondence between the preset target interval of the parameter value and the clothing material. This method of identifying clothing materials is not only highly accurate, but also the structure of the optical signal detection component is relatively simple, and is suitable for use in the washing drum of a washing machine.

[0061] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment,

[0062] The amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode is determined based on the light signal strength of the light signal sterilization component and the working time of the light signal sterilization component. The greater the light signal strength of the light signal sterilization component, the greater the amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode; and the longer the working time of the light signal sterilization component, the greater the amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode.

[0063] In this embodiment, the amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode is determined according to the light signal strength of the light signal sterilization element and the working time of the light signal sterilization element. The greater the light signal strength of the light signal sterilization element, the greater the amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode; the smaller the light signal strength of the light signal sterilization element, the smaller the amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode; the longer the working time of the light signal sterilization element, the greater the amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode; the shorter the working time of the light signal sterilization element, the smaller the amount of sterilizing radiation of the preset clothing sterilization mode;

[0064] More specifically, the sterilization radiation amount of the preset clothing sterilization mode is jointly determined by the light signal intensity of the light signal sterilization component and the working time of the light signal sterilization component. In the preset clothing sterilization mode with a larger sterilization radiation amount, the light signal intensity of the light signal sterilization component is stronger, and the working time of the light signal sterilization component is longer. In the preset clothing sterilization mode with a smaller sterilization radiation amount, the light signal intensity of the light signal sterilization component is smaller, and the working time of the light signal sterilization component is shorter. For example, for clothing materials with a smaller thickness, a larger porosity, and not easily contaminated with dirt, a preset clothing sterilization mode with a smaller sterilization radiation amount can be selected to sterilize them, and the sterilization of the clothing can be completed in a shorter time, which can achieve a better sterilization effect and save time and electricity. For clothing materials with a smaller thickness, a smaller porosity, and easy to be contaminated with dirt, a preset clothing sterilization mode with a larger sterilization radiation amount can be selected to sterilize them, ensuring the adequacy of sterilization and achieving a better sterilization effect.

[0065] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown,

[0066] The clothing material information includes the first type of material information,

[0067] The first category of material information includes multiple first material information with porosity from small to large, and the multiple first material information with porosity from small to large respectively corresponds to multiple preset clothing sterilization modes with sterilization radiation amount from large to small, or the first category of material information includes first material information with a single porosity, and the first material information with a single porosity corresponds to a preset clothing sterilization mode with a single sterilization radiation amount.

[0068] Among them, the first material information with multiple porosities from small to large includes a first porosity material, a second porosity material, and a third porosity material, and the preset clothing sterilization modes with multiple sterilization radiation amounts from large to small include a first preset clothing sterilization mode, a second preset clothing sterilization mode, and a third preset clothing sterilization mode, wherein,

[0069] The first porosity material corresponds to the first preset clothing sterilization mode, the second porosity material corresponds to the second preset clothing sterilization mode, and the third porosity material corresponds to the third preset clothing sterilization mode;

[0070] The porosity of the first porosity material is less than the porosity of the second porosity material and less than the porosity of the third porosity material. The sterilizing radiation amount of the first preset clothing sterilization mode is greater than the sterilizing radiation amount of the second preset clothing sterilization mode and greater than the sterilizing radiation amount of the third preset clothing sterilization mode.

[0071] The first porosity material is wool material, the second porosity material is cotton and linen material, and the third porosity material is silk material.

[0072] In this embodiment, the porosity of wool material is less than the porosity of cotton and linen material and less than the porosity of silk material. For the first type of material information, the clothing sterilization mode with the corresponding sterilization radiation amount can be directly selected according to the porosity of the clothing material. In this way, the porosity can be directly matched with the clothing sterilization mode selection, providing convenience for selecting different clothing sterilization modes for different clothing materials.

[0073] For woolen clothing, its porosity is relatively the smallest. Other factors of the clothing material, such as its relatively large thickness, easy to be dirty, and relatively large degree of dirt, are consistent with the sterilization mode of the sterilization radiation corresponding to the porosity. The sterilization radiation of the first preset clothing sterilization mode, that is, the preset clothing sterilization mode with the maximum sterilization radiation, is selected to sterilize it. Wool clothing can be fully sterilized to achieve better sterilization effect. Similarly, for cotton, linen and silk clothing, its porosity is consistent with the sterilization mode of the sterilization radiation corresponding to other factors of the clothing material. Therefore, for the first type of material information, the porosity is directly matched with the clothing sterilization mode arranged according to the size of the sterilization radiation, which is not only convenient but also relatively accurate.

[0074] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown,

[0075] The clothing material information includes second-category material information, the second-category material information includes multiple second material information, and the multiple second material information respectively correspond to preset clothing sterilization modes of multiple sterilization radiation amounts, or the second-category material information includes a single second material information, and the second material information corresponds to a preset clothing sterilization mode of a single sterilization radiation amount.

[0076] The single second material information includes a fourth porosity material, and the fourth porosity material is a chemical fiber material.

[0077] In this embodiment, for the second type of material information, it is necessary to consider various material-related characteristics such as porosity, thickness, and degree of stickiness and dirtiness to select a clothing sterilization mode with a corresponding amount of sterilization radiation, so as to be suitable for fully sterilizing this type of material and achieve a good sterilization effect.

[0078] For example, chemical fiber clothing has the largest porosity. For other factors of clothing materials, such as relatively small thickness but easy to get dirty and relatively large degree of dirt, clothing materials have multiple characteristics, and the corresponding sterilization modes of sterilization radiation are inconsistent. Therefore, for the second type of material information, it is necessary to separately match the appropriate clothing sterilization mode of sterilization radiation.

[0079] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 1 As shown,

[0080] The optical signal strength of the optical signal sterilization component is determined according to the power supply voltage of the optical signal sterilization component. The greater the power supply voltage of the optical signal sterilization component, the stronger the optical signal strength of the optical signal sterilization component.

[0081] For the first type of material information, wool material, the power supply voltage range of the optical signal sterilization component is 3v~4.5v, and the working time of the optical signal sterilization component is t1; for cotton and linen materials, the power supply voltage range of the optical signal sterilization component is 0.5v~1.5v, and the working time of the optical signal sterilization component is t2; for silk material, the power supply voltage range of the optical signal sterilization component is 0.5v~1.0v, and the working time of the optical signal sterilization component is t3. For the second type of material information, chemical fiber material, the power supply voltage range of the optical signal sterilization component is 1.5v~3v, and the working time of the optical signal sterilization component is t4. In the clothing sterilization mode corresponding to cotton and linen materials, the actual power supply voltage of the optical signal sterilization component is greater than the actual power supply voltage corresponding to silk materials. In terms of time, t4>t1>t3>t2, among which t1>t3>t2, combined with the corresponding power supply voltage, it can ensure that the sterilization radiation for wool materials is the largest, the sterilization radiation for cotton and linen materials is the second, and the sterilization radiation for silk materials is the smallest.

[0082] The above selection of the power supply voltage of the optical signal sterilization element and the working time of the optical signal sterilization element constitutes a preset clothing sterilization mode of the corresponding sterilization radiation amount. A variety of preset clothing sterilization modes can meet the full sterilization requirements of the corresponding clothing materials.

[0083] Those skilled in the art can understand that, according to the above-mentioned classification of different types of materials and the selection of different preset clothing sterilization modes corresponding to different materials, corresponding preset clothing sterilization modes can be made for more different clothing materials to meet the full sterilization requirements of the corresponding clothing materials.

[0084] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown,

[0085] The number of light signal sterilization components is m, m≥1, and each light signal sterilization component includes a sterilization emitter;

[0086] The preset clothing sterilization mode is executed by the light signal sterilization element, including: controlling the sterilization emitters in the m light signal sterilization elements to emit sterilization light to the clothing in the clothing processing device;

[0087] The number of optical signal detection elements is n, n≥1, and the n optical signal detection elements are sequentially distributed along the circumference of the clothing processing drum in the clothing processing device, and each optical signal detection element includes a detection emitter and a detection receiver;

[0088] Acquiring clothing material information includes: controlling the detection emitter of any one of n optical signal detection elements to emit an optical signal to the clothing in the clothing processing device, and controlling the detection receiver of any one of the optical signal detection elements to receive the optical signal reflected by the clothing in the clothing processing device.

[0089] Specifically, when n=2 and m=1,

[0090] The two optical signal detection components include a first optical signal detection component and a second optical signal detection component, the first optical signal detection component includes a first detection emitter 201 and a first detection receiver 301, and the second optical signal detection component includes a second detection emitter 202 and a second detection receiver 302;

[0091] Acquiring clothing material information includes: controlling the first detection emitter 201 and the second detection emitter 202 to emit light signals to the clothing in the clothing processing device, controlling the first detection receiver 301 to receive the light signal emitted by the first detection emitter 201 reflected by the clothing in the clothing processing device, and controlling the second detection receiver 302 to receive the light signal emitted by the second detection emitter 202 reflected by the clothing in the clothing processing device;

[0092] A light signal sterilization element includes a first light signal sterilization element, and the first light signal sterilization element includes a first sterilization emitter 203;

[0093] The preset clothing sterilization mode is executed by the light signal sterilization element and includes: controlling the first sterilization emitter 203 to emit sterilization light to the clothing in the clothing processing device.

[0094] In this embodiment, the first sterilization emitter 203 in the optical signal sterilization element is controlled to emit sterilization light to the clothes, thereby achieving sterilization of the clothes. During the sterilization process, the driving motor in the washing machine can be controlled to drive the washing tub to rotate, so that the clothes are continuously turned over in the washing tub, thereby more comprehensively sterilizing the clothes in the washing tub.

[0095] In the process of obtaining clothing material information, the first detection emitter 201 and the second detection emitter 202 are controlled to emit light signals to the clothing in the clothing processing device, the first detection receiver 301 is controlled to receive the light signal emitted by the first detection emitter 201 reflected by the clothing in the clothing processing device, and the second detection receiver 302 is controlled to receive the light signal emitted by the second detection emitter 202 reflected by the clothing in the clothing processing device, wherein the light signal emitted by the emitter will pass through the clothing in the clothing processing drum, wherein a part of the light signal is blocked and reflected by the clothing and received by the corresponding receiver, a part of the light signal is absorbed by the clothing, and another part of the light signal penetrates the clothing, and clothing of different materials has different reflection capabilities for light signals. By utilizing the difference in the reflection capabilities of clothing of different materials for light signals, the clothing material information can be determined according to the corresponding relationship between the preset target interval of the parameter value and the clothing material. This method of identifying clothing materials is not only highly accurate, but also the structure of the light signal detection part is relatively simple, and is suitable for being set in the washing drum of a washing machine.

[0096] Embodiment 2

[0097] like Figure 2 As shown, a clothes processing device is provided, comprising:

[0098] n optical signal detection elements, each optical signal detection element comprises a detection emitter and a detection receiver, n≥1;

[0099] m light signal sterilization components, each light signal sterilization component includes a sterilization emitter, m ≥ 1;

[0100] n optical signal detection elements are arranged at intervals inside a clothes processing drum of a clothes processing device;

[0101] The n optical signal detection elements are configured such that: a detection emitter of any optical signal detection element among the n optical signal detection elements emits an optical signal to the clothes in the clothes processing drum of the clothes processing device, and a detection receiver of any optical signal detection element receives an optical signal reflected by the clothes in the clothes processing drum of the clothes processing device;

[0102] The m light signal sterilizing elements are configured such that the sterilizing emitters in the m light signal sterilizing elements emit sterilizing light toward the clothes in the clothes treating device.

[0103] The clothing processing device is a washing machine, and the washing tub of the washing machine is equipped with three lifting ribs, one of which is equipped with a light signal sterilization component, and the other two are equipped with light signal detection components. The detection emitter and detection receiver in the light signal detection component are laid flat on the lifting ribs.

[0104] By controlling the first sterilization emitter 203 in the optical signal sterilization element to emit sterilization light to the clothes, the clothes can be sterilized. During the sterilization process, the driving motor in the washing machine can be controlled to drive the washing tub to rotate, so that the clothes are continuously turned over in the washing tub, thereby more comprehensively sterilizing the clothes in the washing tub.

[0105] In the process of obtaining clothing material information, the first detection emitter 201 and the second detection emitter 202 are controlled to emit light signals to the clothing in the clothing processing device, the first detection receiver 301 is controlled to receive the light signal emitted by the first detection emitter 201 reflected by the clothing in the clothing processing device, and the second detection receiver 302 is controlled to receive the light signal emitted by the second detection emitter 202 reflected by the clothing in the clothing processing device, wherein the light signal emitted by the emitter will pass through the clothing in the clothing processing drum, wherein a part of the light signal is blocked and reflected by the clothing and received by the corresponding receiver, a part of the light signal is absorbed by the clothing, and another part of the light signal penetrates the clothing, and clothing of different materials has different reflection capabilities for light signals. By utilizing the difference in the reflection capabilities of clothing of different materials for light signals, the clothing material information can be determined according to the corresponding relationship between the preset target interval of the parameter value and the clothing material. This method of identifying clothing materials is not only highly accurate, but also the structure of the light signal detection part is relatively simple, and is suitable for being set in the washing drum of a washing machine.

[0106] It should be noted that, in an embodiment of the present application, diffuse reflection may be generated after the light signal contacts the clothing, and then the diffuse reflection parameter value may be obtained.

[0107] Specifically, the diffuse reflection parameter value may be a parameter value of the reflected light signal itself after diffuse reflection occurs, such as the wavelength and light intensity of the reflected light signal, or may be a parameter value obtained by calculating the parameter value of the reflected light signal itself, such as substituting the wavelength and / or light intensity of the reflected light signal into a preset calculation formula to obtain the diffuse reflection parameter value. In general, as long as different clothing materials can correspond to different diffuse reflection parameter values, it will be fine.

[0108] In an embodiment, the preset calculation formula for calculating the diffuse reflection parameter value may be a formula including the wavelength and light intensity of the reflected light signal, for example, the diffuse reflection parameter value a = (wavelength λ-absorbed wavelength △E) / wavelength λ*φluminous flux*power factor (light intensity related).

[0109] In the embodiment, in order to determine the material of the clothing, a diffuse reflection standard value interval is preset, and different diffuse reflection standard value intervals correspond to different clothing materials, that is, there is a corresponding relationship between the diffuse reflection standard value interval and the clothing material.

[0110] Specifically, the diffuse reflection standard value interval is a numerical interval composed of diffuse reflection standard values. It should be noted that the diffuse reflection standard value and the diffuse reflection parameter value are of the same type or are obtained using the same algorithm. The difference is that the diffuse reflection standard value is a parameter value obtained by performing a diffuse reflection experiment on the clothing when the clothing material is known, while the diffuse reflection parameter value is a parameter value obtained by performing diffuse reflection on the clothing when the clothing material is actually identified. For ease of understanding, for example, during testing, the wavelength and light intensity of the reflected light signal after diffuse reflection are calculated using formula A to obtain the diffuse reflection standard value. After multiple tests on clothing of material a, a numerical interval P1 can be divided according to all the obtained diffuse reflection standard values. When actually identifying the clothing material, the wavelength and light intensity of the reflected light signal after diffuse reflection are also calculated using formula A to obtain the diffuse reflection parameter value. Since the calculation process of the diffuse reflection parameter value is the same as that of the diffuse reflection standard value, the clothing material of the clothing can be determined according to the diffuse reflection parameter value.

[0111] The correspondence between the diffuse reflection standard value interval and the clothing material is: each type of clothing material corresponds to a diffuse reflection standard value interval, and different types of clothing materials correspond to different diffuse reflection standard value intervals. For example, material a corresponds to the diffuse reflection standard value interval P1, which is the correspondence. So that when the diffuse reflection parameter value is within P1, it can be determined that the clothing material of the clothing is a. Preferably, the correspondence obtained by testing with an ultraviolet sensor and using the formula includes: the material tested at 100-130 is cotton, the material tested at 135-155 is linen, the material corresponding to 190-230 is wool, the material corresponding to 165-189 is silk, the material corresponding to 290-330 is polyester fiber, and the material corresponding to 335-390 is chemical fiber.

[0112] Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, as Figure 1 , 2 As shown,

[0118] Embodiment 3

[0119] This embodiment provides an electronic device, the electronic device comprising:

[0120] Memory, which stores computer instructions;

[0121] A processor is used to call and execute computer instructions to implement the clothing processing method in embodiment one, or to call and execute computer instructions to control the clothing processing device in embodiment two and implement the clothing processing method in embodiment one.

[0122] The electronic device can obtain clothing material information, and according to the clothing material information, use a preset clothing sterilization mode corresponding to the clothing material information to sterilize the clothing, the preset clothing sterilization mode is executed by an optical signal sterilization component, and the clothing material information is used to select preset clothing sterilization modes with different sterilization radiation amounts for different clothing materials to sterilize the clothing. Because different clothing materials have different characteristics such as different thicknesses, porosities, and degrees of contamination, selecting a preset clothing sterilization mode with a suitable sterilization radiation amount for different clothing materials can sterilize the clothing more fully and specifically, thereby improving the cleanliness of the clothing.

[0123] Embodiment 4

[0124] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a clothing processing device, which uses the clothing processing method in the first embodiment, or includes the electronic device in the third embodiment.

[0125] The clothing processing device is a washing machine, which obtains clothing material information and, based on the clothing material information, uses a preset clothing sterilization mode corresponding to the clothing material information to sterilize the clothing. The preset clothing sterilization mode is executed by an optical signal sterilization component, and uses the clothing material information to select preset clothing sterilization modes with different sterilization radiation amounts for different clothing materials to sterilize the clothing. Because different clothing materials have different characteristics such as different thicknesses, porosities, and degrees of contamination, selecting preset clothing sterilization modes with appropriate sterilization radiation amounts for different clothing materials can sterilize the clothing more fully and specifically, thereby improving the cleanliness of the clothing.

[0126] In summary, the ingenious idea of ​​the clothing treatment method is:

[0127] First, by utilizing the clothing material information, preset clothing sterilization modes with different sterilization radiation amounts are selected for different clothing materials to sterilize the clothing. Different clothing materials have different characteristics such as different thickness, porosity, degree of contamination, etc. Selecting a preset clothing sterilization mode with appropriate sterilization radiation amounts for different clothing materials can sterilize the clothing more fully and specifically, thereby improving the cleanliness of the clothing.

[0128] Second, the amount of sterilization radiation in the preset clothing sterilization mode is determined by the light signal intensity of the light signal sterilization component and the working time of the light signal sterilization component. For clothing materials with small thickness, large porosity, and not easy to be stained with dirt, the preset clothing sterilization mode with a small amount of sterilization radiation can be used to sterilize them. The sterilization of the clothing can be completed in a shorter time, which can achieve a better sterilization effect and save time and electricity. For clothing materials with small thickness, small porosity, and easy to be stained with dirt, the preset clothing sterilization mode with a large amount of sterilization radiation can be used to sterilize them, ensuring the adequacy of sterilization and achieving a better sterilization effect.

[0129] Third, the clothing materials are classified. One type is matched directly with the clothing sterilization mode arranged according to the size of the sterilization radiation through porosity, which is not only convenient but also relatively accurate. The other type needs to consider a variety of material-related characteristics such as porosity, thickness, and degree of stickiness and dirtiness to select the corresponding clothing sterilization mode of sterilization radiation, so as to fully sterilize various clothing materials and achieve the best sterilization effect.

[0130] It is further understood that in the present disclosure, "plurality" refers to two or more than two, and other quantifiers are similar thereto. "And / or" describes the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that three relationships may exist. For example, A and / or B may represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship. The singular forms "a", "the" and "the" are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.

[0131] It is further understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are used to describe various information, but such information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other, and do not indicate a specific order or degree of importance. In fact, the expressions "first", "second", etc. can be used interchangeably. For example, without departing from the scope of the present disclosure, the first information can also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information can also be referred to as the first information.

[0132] It is further understood that, although the operations are described in a specific order in the drawings in the embodiments of the present disclosure, it should not be understood as requiring the operations to be performed in the specific order shown or in a serial order, or requiring the execution of all the operations shown to obtain the desired results. In certain environments, multitasking and parallel processing may be advantageous.
