Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of clothing treatment equipment, and particularly relates to a clothing treatment equipment equipped with a rotatable-out display screen, and more particularly to a control method applied to the above-mentioned clothing treatment equipment. Background Art

[0002] In modern life, washing machines have become essential household appliances. Some families, due to the need for drying clothes after washing, will further purchase a dryer, or there are multiple washing machines in the family to meet the needs of separate washing of adult and children's clothes.

[0003] Currently, clothing treatment equipment such as washing machines and dryers has become essential household appliances in many families. In modern home life, more and more young users pursue the integration of home appliances and furniture; as the main household appliances in people's daily life, the construction of the style of clothing treatment equipment and furniture has become an important topic in the home decoration design of most users.

[0004] At the same time, a display screen needs to be set on the clothing treatment equipment to display information such as the operating parameters of the clothing treatment equipment to the outside; therefore, a display screen generally needs to be installed on the clothing treatment equipment. In order to better facilitate users to observe and operate the display screen, the display screen generally needs to be rotated outwards to form an inclination angle of 25° with the user's eyes.

[0005] However, the existing display screens are generally fixedly installed in the clothing treatment equipment in an embedded manner, and the function of automatically flipping the rotatable display screen outwards cannot be realized; therefore, adding a display screen that can be flipped in and out on the clothing treatment equipment has become a technical problem to be solved.

[0006] In particular, due to the characteristics of the clothing treatment equipment itself, vibration will be generated when the drum rotates around the axis, which is likely to cause excessive vibration stress at the installation location of the added, outwards-flipped display screen, resulting in a malfunction of the flipping structure of the display screen.

[0007] In view of this, the present invention is specifically proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a control method for clothing treatment equipment to achieve the purpose of automatically opening and closing and rotating the rotatable display screen to facilitate user operation; at the same time, another purpose of the present invention is to provide a control method for clothing treatment equipment to achieve the purpose of preventing excessive vibration loss of the outwards-flipped display screen caused by the operation of the equipment.

[0009] To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0010] A control method for a clothing treatment device, the clothing treatment device comprising: a main body, a cylinder rotatable about an axis is installed inside the main body, and a display screen that can be turned outwards is installed on the main body; when the display screen is turned outwards and opened, it is detected whether the rotational speed of the cylinder exceeds a set rotational speed; if so, the display screen stops turning outwards and remains in the inward-turning and closing position; if not, the display screen is turned outwards and opened to the outward-turning and opening position.

[0011] Further, when the display screen is turned outwards and opened, if it is detected that the rotational speed of the cylinder exceeds the set rotational speed, the rotational speed of the cylinder is continuously detected until it is detected that the rotational speed of the cylinder is lower than the set rotational speed, and then the display screen is controlled to be turned outwards and opened to the outward-turning and opening position.

[0012] Further, when the display screen is turned outwards and opened, if it is detected that the rotational speed of the cylinder exceeds the set rotational speed, the display screen stops turning outwards, and the display screen in the position of turning inwards and outwards is activated for the user to operate.

[0013] Further, when the display screen is turned outwards and opened, if it is detected that the rotational speed of the cylinder exceeds the set rotational speed; it is judged whether the detected value of the rotational speed of the cylinder is greater than the safety set rotational speed;

[0014] If so, the display screen stops turning outwards and the display screen is locked and cannot be operated by the user; if not, the display screen stops turning outwards and the display screen is activated for the user to operate.

[0015] Preferably, the safety set rotational speed and the set rotational speed are set values preset by the clothing treatment device system; the safety set rotational speed is greater than the set rotational speed, and the set rotational speed is greater than or equal to the rotational speed value of the cylinder when the clothing treatment device executes the dehydration program; further preferably, the set rotational speed is greater than or equal to 300 r / min; the safety set rotational speed is greater than or equal to 1400 r / min.

[0016] Further, during the operation of the clothing treatment device, the rotational speed of the cylinder is detected; when the detected value of the rotational speed of the cylinder reaches the set rotational speed, it is judged whether the display screen is in the outward-turning position;

[0017] If so, the display screen turns inwards and closes to the inward-turning and closing position; if not, the display screen remains in the inward-turning and closing position.

[0018] Further, during the process that the detected value of the rotational speed of the cylinder reaches the set rotational speed and the display screen turns inwards and closes to the inward-turning and closing position, the clothing treatment device emits a prompt signal; the prompt signal includes at least one of the following: the display screen displays a prompt message, the clothing treatment device emits a prompt sound, and the clothing treatment device pushes a prompt reminder to the user's mobile terminal.

[0019] Further, during the execution of the high drum rotation speed program by the laundry treatment device, the display screen remains in the inwardly flipped and closed position; preferably, the high drum rotation speed program includes a dehydration program; the non-high drum rotation speed programs include a washing program and a rinsing program.

[0020] Further, when the laundry treatment device executes the high drum rotation speed program, it is determined whether the display screen is in the outwardly flipped position; if so, the display screen is flipped inwardly and closed to the inwardly flipped and closed position; if not, the display screen remains in the inwardly flipped and closed position until the high drum rotation speed program ends.

[0021] Further, an outwardly flipped display screen is provided on the front side wall of the laundry treatment device; when the display screen is flipped outwardly, the lower side of the display screen is flipped outwardly around the upper horizontal rotation shaft until the display screen is in the outwardly flipped position at a set inclination angle with the front side of the main body of the laundry treatment device; when the display screen is flipped inwardly, the lower side of the display screen is flipped inwardly around the upper horizontal rotation shaft until the display screen is flush with the front side of the main body of the laundry treatment device at the inwardly flipped position; preferably, the set inclination angle is 60 degrees.

[0022] The present invention also introduces a laundry treatment device applying any one of the above control methods, which includes: a main body, and a main control board is installed on the front side of the main body; a display screen that can be flipped outwardly and opened is installed on the main control board, and the non-outwardly flipped display screen is vertically arranged flush with the front side of the main body.

[0023] The present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0024] Through the above settings, when the drum of the laundry treatment device rotates at a high speed, the display screen is closed, effectively preventing damage and other situations from occurring at the flipping connection shaft due to the vibration generated by the high-speed rotation of the drum after the display screen is flipped outward, thereby greatly improving the operation and installation reliability of the laundry treatment device. <x

Detailed Implementation Manner

[0042] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art can understand that the following embodiments are only used to explain the technical principle of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

[0043] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the terms "set" and "connect" shall be understood in a broad sense. For example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific situations.

[0044]

[0045] As Figures 1 to 15 shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, a control method for a clothing treatment device is introduced. The clothing treatment device includes: a main body, a drum rotatable around an axis is installed in the main body, and a display screen that can be turned outwards is installed on the main body. When the display screen is turned outwards and opened, it is detected whether the rotation speed of the drum exceeds a set rotation speed; if so, the display screen stops turning outwards and remains in the position of turning inwards and closing; if not, the display screen is turned outwards and opened to the position of turning outwards and opening.

[0046] Through the above settings, when the drum of the laundry treatment device rotates at a high speed, the display screen is closed, effectively preventing damage at the flip connection shaft caused by the vibration generated during the high-speed rotation of the drum after the display screen flips outwards, thereby greatly improving the operation and installation reliability of the laundry treatment device.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the display screen flips outwards and opens, if it is detected that the drum rotation speed exceeds the set rotation speed, the drum rotation speed is continuously detected until it is detected that the drum rotation speed is lower than the set rotation speed, and then the display screen is controlled to flip outwards and open to the outward flip open position.

[0048] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the display screen flips outwards and opens, if it is detected that the drum rotation speed exceeds the set rotation speed, the display screen stops flipping outwards, and the display screen in the position of flipping inwards and outwards is activated for the user to operate.

[0049] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the display screen flips outwards and opens, it is detected that the drum rotation speed exceeds the set rotation speed;

[0050] It is judged whether the detected value of the drum rotation speed is greater than the safety set rotation speed;

[0051] If so, the display screen stops flipping outwards and is locked so that the user cannot operate it; if not, the display screen stops flipping outwards and is activated for the user to operate.

[0052] In this embodiment, both the safety set rotation speed and the set rotation speed are preset values of the laundry treatment device system, and different preset values can be set respectively according to different models of the laundry treatment device; however, the following conditions need to be met: the safety set rotation speed is greater than the set rotation speed, the set rotation speed is greater than the set rotation speed value of the drum when the laundry treatment device executes the dehydration program, and the safety set rotation speed is less than or equal to the maximum rotation speed value that the drum can reach during the operation of the laundry treatment device; further preferably, the set rotation speed is greater than or equal to 300 r / min; the safety set rotation speed is greater than or equal to 1400 r / min.

[0053] As Figure 14 shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the specific working process of the laundry treatment device is as follows:

[0054] S101. During the execution of the working program by the laundry treatment device, a command for the display screen to flip outwards is received;

[0055] S102. The drum rotation speed is detected in real time;

[0056] S103. It is judged whether the detected value of the drum rotation speed reaches the set rotation speed; if not, step S104 is executed; if so, step S105 is executed;

[0057] S104. The display screen flips outwards to the outward flip open position;

[0058] S105. The display screen remains in the inwardly flipped and closed position, and step S102 is executed;

[0059] S106. The laundry treatment device ends the working program.

[0060] As Figure 15 shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the specific working process of the laundry treatment device is as follows:

[0061] During the working process of the laundry treatment device, the drum rotation speed is detected;

[0062] When the detected value of the drum rotation speed reaches the set rotation speed, it is judged whether the display screen is in the outwardly flipped position;

[0063] If so, the display screen is flipped inward and closed to the inwardly flipped and closed position;

[0064] If not, the display screen remains in the inwardly flipped and closed position.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present invention, during the process that the detected value of the drum rotation speed reaches the set rotation speed and the display screen is flipped inward and closed to the inwardly flipped and closed position, the laundry treatment device emits a prompt signal; the prompt signal includes one or a combination of the following: the display screen displays a prompt message, the laundry treatment device emits a prompt sound, and the laundry treatment device pushes a prompt reminder to the user's mobile terminal.

[0066] In the embodiment of the present invention, during the process that the laundry treatment device executes the high drum rotation speed program, the display screen remains in the inwardly flipped and closed position; preferably, the high drum rotation speed program includes a dehydration program; the non-high drum rotation speed programs include a washing program and a rinsing program.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present invention, when the laundry treatment device executes the high drum rotation speed program, it is judged whether the display screen is in the outwardly flipped position; if so, the display screen is flipped inward and closed to the inwardly flipped and closed position; if not, the display screen remains in the inwardly flipped and closed position until the high drum rotation speed program ends.

[0068] As Figure 13 shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, a control method of a laundry treatment device is also introduced. The laundry treatment device includes: a main body, a drum rotatable about an axis is provided in the main body, and a display screen that can be flipped outward is installed on the main body; after the laundry treatment device receives a display screen flip-open signal, the display screen is flipped outward and opened for a set duration; after reaching the set duration, the display screen is flipped inward and closed.

[0069] Through the above settings, the effect that the display screen automatically flips outwards to open and flips inwards to close is achieved, greatly simplifying the user's operation and improving the intelligent level of the automatically flipping display screen. At the same time, by automatically flipping the display screen inwards after it flips outwards for a set duration, after the user issues a work program instruction for the clothing treatment device by operating the display screen, the display screen can be automatically flipped inwards to close without a secondary action, reducing the user's operation steps.

[0070] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the power button of the clothing treatment device is started, and / or when the clothing treatment device starts to work, and / or when the user issues a signal for the display screen to flip outwards and open to the clothing treatment device, the clothing treatment device generates a signal for the display screen to flip open, and the display screen flips outwards and opens for a set duration; after reaching the set duration, the display screen flips inwards and closes.

[0071] In an embodiment of the present invention, the user issuing a signal for the display screen to flip outwards and open to the clothing treatment device includes the following. The user touches or presses the display screen, and uses the generated touch signal or press signal to generate a signal for the display screen to flip outwards and open; and / or, the clothing treatment device recognizes that the user issues a set voice or makes a set action to generate a signal for the display screen to flip outwards and open; and / or, the user uses a mobile terminal to issue a signal for the display screen to flip outwards and open to the clothing treatment device.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present invention, after the display screen flips outwards and opens, the work program of the clothing treatment device is selected according to the operation instruction of the user on the operation interface of the display screen; until the set duration is reached after the last operation instruction of the display screen, the display screen flips inwards and closes; preferably, the set duration is 20s.

[0073] In an embodiment of the present invention, an operation interface for flipping inwards is provided on the display screen; after the display screen flips outwards and opens, the user operates the operation interface for flipping inwards on the display screen to generate an operation instruction for the display screen to flip inwards, and the display screen directly flips inwards and closes.

[0074] As Figure 13 shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, after the clothing treatment device receives a display screen flipping scenario start instruction, the clothing treatment device enters the display screen flipping scenario. After the clothing treatment device receives a signal for the display screen to flip open, the display screen flips to an open position outwards and lasts for a set duration; after reaching the set duration, the display screen flips to a closed position inwards; otherwise, the clothing treatment device is in a non-display screen flipping scenario, and regardless of whether the clothing treatment device receives a signal for the display screen to flip open, the display screen is always in a closed position flipping inwards.

[0075] In an embodiment of the present invention, when the display screen of the laundry treatment device is in the outward flipping position, a first operation interface is displayed on the display screen; when the display screen of the laundry treatment device is in the inward flipping position, a second operation interface is displayed on the display screen.

[0076] In an embodiment of the present invention, an outward flipping display screen is provided on the front side wall of the laundry treatment device; when the display screen flips outward, the lower side of the display screen flips outward around the upper horizontal rotation shaft until the display screen reaches the outward flipping position at a set inclination angle with respect to the front side of the main body of the laundry treatment device; when the display screen flips inward, the lower side of the display screen flips inward around the upper horizontal rotation shaft until the display screen reaches the inward flipping position flush with the front side of the main body of the laundry treatment device; preferably, the above set inclination angle is 60 degrees.

[0077] As Figure 13 shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the specific process of the laundry treatment device is as follows,

[0078] Step S1. The laundry treatment device is started;

[0079] The display screen flips outward to the outward flipping position;

[0080] The user operates the outward-flipped display screen to select the working program of the laundry treatment device;

[0081] Step S2. It is detected whether the user has not operated the display screen within a continuous set time; if so, the display screen flips inward to the inward flipping position;

[0082] Step S3. The laundry treatment device starts to work according to the selected program;

[0083] Step S4. During the working process of the laundry treatment device, it is detected whether an outward flipping signal of the display screen is received; if so, the display screen flips outward to the outward flipping position;

[0084] Step S5. It is detected whether the user has not operated the display screen within a continuous set time; if so, the display screen flips inward to the inward flipping position;

[0085] Step S6. The working of the laundry treatment device ends.

[0086] As Figures 1 to 12As shown in the figure, in an embodiment of the present invention, a laundry treatment device is introduced, which includes: a main body 100; a laundry module, a drying module, an ironing module, a rejuvenation module, etc. for treating clothes are installed in the main body 100, and any one or combination of existing laundry treatment modules can be included; that is, the laundry treatment device can be an existing washing machine, a dryer, a washing and drying integrated machine, etc. Preferably, for the convenience of description in an embodiment of the present invention, a drum washing machine is taken as an example of the laundry treatment device to expand the description, but the present invention is not limited to the drum washing machine, and can also be other devices that can treat clothes. In an embodiment of the present invention, the main body 100 has a drum with a horizontal axis or an axis extending obliquely upward at the front side, the drum opening is arranged facing the front side of the main body, a laundry inlet is provided on the front side of the main body 100 opposite to the drum opening, and a machine door 102 for opening and closing the laundry inlet is also installed on the main body 100.

[0087] As Figures 1 to 9 As shown in the figure, in an embodiment of the present invention, a main control board 200 is installed on the upper front part of the main body 100 of the laundry treatment device, and the main control board 200 is in the same vertical plane and flush with the front outer wall of the main body; preferably, the main body 100 includes a housing 101, and the main control board 200 protruding forward is installed on the upper front part of the housing 101; a machine door 102 for outwardly flipping and opening the laundry inlet is installed on the front side of the housing, and the machine door 102 is located below the main control board 200 and covers other parts of the front side of the housing except the main control board 200, so that the closed machine door constitutes the front side wall of the main body 100, and the front side wall of the closed machine door and the front side wall of the main control board are in the same vertical plane and flush, so that the front side of the main body 100 of the laundry treatment device is in the same vertical plane, so as to facilitate the front side outer wall surface of the laundry treatment device to be flush with the front side outer wall surfaces of other external furniture.

[0088] As Figures 1 to 9 As shown in the figure, in an embodiment of the present invention, a main control board structure of a laundry treatment device is introduced, which includes: a main control board 200; a display screen 300, installed in an inner concave installation groove 201 provided on the main control board 200; the display screen 300 is connected to the installation groove 201 through a rotating shaft structure 1, and the display screen 300 can rotate outward around the rotating shaft 11 of the rotating shaft structure 1 to turn out of the installation groove 201, and the outer wall surface of the display screen 300 turned into the installation groove 201 is in the same vertical plane and flush with the outer side wall of the main control board 200. By installing a rotatable display screen on the main control board, the effect that the front side wall of the laundry treatment device is a flat vertical plane under normal conditions is realized, and thus the overall aesthetic coordination degree between the laundry treatment device and the surrounding furniture is significantly improved.

[0089] In an embodiment of the present invention, the display screen 300 may be an LCD, LED screen or the like that only has a display function, or the display screen 300 may be set as a touch screen with a touch function, an integrated screen integrated with a pressing mechanical or electronic key, etc. The outer wall surface of the display screen 300 on the outer side of the outer main control board 200 is a display surface 301, and the function parameters of the clothing treatment device can be displayed. At the same time, the main control board 200 may also be arranged at other positions of the clothing treatment device body 100, for example: on the top surface of the body 100, at other areas on the front side of the body 100, and so on.

[0090] In an embodiment of the present invention, a stop structure 2 is provided on the installation groove 201 to stop the display screen 300 flipped into the installation groove 201, and the outer wall surface of the display screen 300 is kept in a flush vertical position with the outer side wall of the main control board 200. By providing the stop structure 2 on the main control board 200, the stop structure 2 is used to stop and position the display screen 300 when it is turned inward, so as to avoid the display screen 300 turning inward at too large an angle and ensure that the display screen 300 remains in a vertical position after being turned into the installation groove 201.

[0091] In an embodiment of the present invention, the main control board 200 is vertically arranged and has an installation groove 201 that is horizontally recessed backward; the display screen 300 includes a display panel 302 covering the notch of the installation groove 201, and one side of the display panel 302 facing the outside is the display surface 301, and the display surface 301 and the front outer wall surface of the main control board 200 are in the same vertical plane. The display screen 300 further includes other components such as a circuit board 303, and the circuit board 303 is electrically connected to the display panel 302 for supplying power to the display panel, providing display information, etc. Generally, an installation shell 304 is buckled on the rear side of the display panel 302, and the installation shell 304 is fixedly connected to the display panel; the circuit board 303 is installed in the hollow chamber surrounded by the installation shell 304 and the display panel 302.
