Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of smart home technology, and in particular to a control system, a control method, and related equipment for a smart clothes drying machine. Background Art

[0002] With the development of smart home devices, smart clothes drying machines have become an indispensable part of people's daily lives. To speed up drying, people often activate the drying function (such as hot air drying or cold air drying) on these machines. However, the open drying area of these clothes results in very low drying efficiency and easily causes wrinkles in clothes, affecting their aesthetics. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The embodiments of the present disclosure provide a control system, control method and related equipment for an intelligent clothes drying machine, which are used to dynamically adjust the vibration parameters of the vibration module to adapt to different drying states, improve the drying efficiency, and effectively solve the problem of clothes wrinkles caused by drying, thereby maintaining the aesthetics of the clothes.

[0004] According to one aspect of an embodiment of the present disclosure, a control system for an intelligent clothes drying machine is provided, which is applied to the intelligent clothes drying machine. The intelligent clothes drying machine includes a main unit and a clothes drying rod assembly. The control system includes: A main control module, built into the host; a clothes drying module, arranged on the host and in communication with the main control module, for performing clothes drying operations under the control of the main control module; The vibration module is arranged on the clothes drying rod assembly and is in communication with the main control module. It is used to perform a vibration operation using corresponding vibration parameters under the control of the main control module based on the drying state of the clothes during the drying operation, so as to vibrate the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly.

[0005] Compared to the prior art, the control system of the smart clothes drying machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a vibration module. The vibration module can be arranged on the clothes drying rod assembly and is in communication with the main control module of the smart clothes drying machine host. Under the control of the main control module, the vibration module is used to assist the clothes drying module in drying clothes. On the basis of the original clothes drying module's clothes drying, the mechanical vibration accelerates water migration and evaporation, improves the clothes drying efficiency, and meets the user's demand for quick clothes drying. Specifically, the vibration operation can be adapted to the drying state of the clothes drying operation, using corresponding vibration parameters to vibrate the clothes hanging on the clothes drying rod assembly, improve the clothes drying efficiency, and solve the problem of clothes wrinkling caused by the clothes drying operation. Different vibration parameters can be used for vibration operation to adapt to different clothes drying states, which is conducive to reducing the resources consumed by implementing the clothes vibration function.

[0006] In a feasible embodiment, the control system further includes a detection module communicatively connected to the main control module; The detection module is used to collect first information related to the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly and transmit it to the main control module; The main control module is configured to determine a clothes drying state based on the first information, and control the clothes drying module and / or the vibration module to operate based on the clothes drying state.

[0007] The control system provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure also includes a detection module that is communicatively connected to the main control module. The detection module can collect first information related to the clothes and transmit it to the main control module, so that the main control module can determine the current drying status based on the first information, and then control the drying module and the vibration module to operate based on the drying status, which is conducive to improving the effectiveness of the operation of each functional module, thereby improving the efficiency of drying clothes.

[0008] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration module includes a plurality of first vibrators capable of operating in different vibration modes and / or a plurality of second vibrators operating in one vibration mode; The vibration modes include a first vibration mode and a second vibration mode; different vibration modes correspond to different vibration parameters; the vibration parameters include vibration frequency and amplitude; the vibration frequency of the first vibration mode is lower than the vibration frequency of the second vibration mode.

[0009] In one example, the control system can employ a first vibrator with dynamically adjustable vibration parameters, such as an adjustable vibrator. In another example, the control system can include at least two second vibrators with different fixed vibration parameters, such as fixed vibrators. This allows for dynamic vibration operations tailored to different drying requirements, improving drying efficiency and conserving resources. For example, this can avoid the resource-intensive effects of continued high-frequency vibration even when clothes are nearly dry.

[0010] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration module is specifically used to: When the clothes drying module is started, the first vibration operation is synchronously started in the first vibration mode; If the first information indicates that the migration of liquid water from the clothes has ended, stopping the first vibration operation and starting a second vibration operation in a second vibration mode; When the first information indicates that the clothes drying is completed, the second vibration operation is stopped.

[0011] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, while the drying module is started to perform the drying operation, the vibration module can be started to perform the first vibration operation in the first vibration mode, which is beneficial to increasing the speed of liquid water migration and accelerating moisture migration; then, when the first information collected by the detection module indicates that the liquid water migration of the current clothes is completed, the vibration module can stop the first vibration operation and start the second vibration operation in the second vibration mode, which can be understood as adjusting the vibration parameters adopted by the vibration module. At this time, the vibration frequency of the vibration module can be increased to destroy the continuity of the water film and increase the evaporation rate of water; finally, when the first information collected by the detection module indicates that the clothes are dried, the vibration module can stop the second vibration operation, thereby realizing the auxiliary drying operation through the vibration operation, improving the overall clothing drying efficiency, and avoiding the problem of clothing wrinkles caused by the drying operation, which can effectively protect the neatness and aesthetics of the clothes.

[0012] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration mode further includes a third vibration mode, and the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the third vibration mode covers the operating range of the first vibration mode and the second vibration mode; The vibration module is further specifically used for: When the first vibration operation and / or the second vibration operation is performed, a third vibration operation is synchronously performed in a third vibration mode.

[0013] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the vibration module in the control system also includes a third vibration mode, and the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the third vibration mode covers the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the first vibration mode and the second vibration mode. Specifically, when performing the first vibration operation and / or the second vibration operation, the vibration module can be synchronously started to perform the third vibration operation in the third vibration mode. It can be understood that the first vibration mode and the second vibration mode are the relativity of low-frequency vibration and high-frequency vibration, and the third vibration mode can be understood as a resonance mode, which can convert the bound water on the clothes into free water, increase the diffusion coefficient of water, and accelerate water migration and evaporation.

[0014] In a feasible embodiment, the detection module includes a humidity detection unit and / or a weight detection unit; The humidity detection unit is used to detect the air humidity in the clothes hanging area; The weight detection unit is used to detect the weight of the clothes; The main control module is further used for at least one of the following: Obtaining the air humidity in the first information, and determining that the migration of liquid water from the clothing has ended if a change in the air humidity within a first preset time period is less than a first preset threshold; obtaining the weight of the clothing in the first information, and determining that the migration of liquid water from the clothing has ended if a change in the weight of the clothing within a second preset time period is less than a second preset threshold; The weight of the clothes in the first information is obtained, and a drying ratio threshold is determined based on the current clothes weight and the initial clothes weight. If the drying ratio threshold is greater than a third preset threshold, it is determined that the clothes drying is completed.

[0015] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the detection module employed in the control system may include a humidity detection unit and / or a weight detection unit. Based on this, the air humidity in the laundry hanging area and the laundry weight can be collected. When the air humidity in the first information is obtained, the change in air humidity within a first preset time period can be considered to determine whether the liquid water in the laundry has completed migration. For example, if the air humidity is less than a first preset threshold value within this time period, the liquid water migration can be determined to have completed. When the laundry weight in the first information is obtained, the change in laundry weight within a second preset time period can be considered to determine whether the liquid water in the laundry has completed migration. If the change in laundry weight within this time period is less than a second preset threshold value, the liquid water migration can be determined to have completed migration. In addition, a drying ratio threshold can be determined based on the current laundry weight and the initial laundry weight. If the drying ratio threshold is greater than a third preset threshold value, the laundry drying can be determined to have completed. It is understood that the drying state includes two types: the completion of liquid water migration and the completion of laundry drying. Different drying states have different drying requirements. Determining the drying state based on the first information and determining the vibration parameters to be used by the vibration module can help improve laundry drying efficiency and reduce resource consumption.

[0016] In a feasible embodiment, the drying rod assembly includes a first drying rod and a second drying rod, the first drying rod is connected to the main unit, and the ends of the two first drying rods arranged in parallel are connected by end caps; the second drying rod is connected to the first drying rod by a movable rod; The vibration module includes at least one of the following: A first vibration unit is arranged inside the first drying rod, the end cover and / or the second drying rod; The second vibration unit is detachably connected to the drying rod assembly.

[0017] In one example, the vibration module can be arranged inside the rod assembly to improve the effectiveness of the first vibration unit in transmitting vibration energy through the rod assembly, reduce the energy loss caused by mechanical transmission, and help maintain the cleanliness of the smart clothes dryer and increase the service life of the first vibration unit; in another example, the vibration module can be detachably connected to the rod assembly, which can improve the convenience of adding a vibration function to the original smart clothes dryer and reduce the complexity of operation.

[0018] According to another aspect of the embodiments of the present disclosure, a control method for an intelligent clothes drying machine is provided, which is applied to the control system of the intelligent clothes drying machine provided in the above embodiments, and the method includes: In response to a clothes drying instruction, instructing the clothes drying module to perform a clothes drying operation; Based on the drying state during the clothes drying operation, the vibration module is instructed to perform a vibration operation using corresponding vibration parameters, so that the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly vibrate.

[0019] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, based on the provision of hardware that supports the implementation of the vibration function, when the corresponding clothing drying instruction instructs the drying module to perform a drying operation, the vibration module can be synchronously instructed to use corresponding vibration parameters to perform a vibration operation based on the drying state of the drying operation. This allows the drying module to simultaneously dehydrate the clothes by combining vibration, assisting in drying, improving the efficiency of clothing drying, and effectively solving the problem of clothing wrinkles caused by the operation of the drying module, ensuring the neatness and aesthetics of the clothes. Among them, adapting to different drying states and instructing the vibration module to use different vibration parameters for vibration operations is conducive to improving the efficiency of the vibration module operation and reducing the required resource consumption.

[0020] In a feasible embodiment, the instructing the vibration module to perform the vibration operation using corresponding vibration parameters based on the drying state of the clothes during the drying operation includes: Acquiring first information related to the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly through a detection module; determining the clothes drying state based on the first information; Based on the clothes drying state, the vibration module is instructed to perform a vibration operation.

[0021] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, it is possible to further obtain first information related to the clothes through the detection module, determine the drying status through the first information, improve the accuracy of the judgment of the drying status, and thus improve the accuracy of the vibration operation based on the drying status indication vibration module to improve the drying efficiency.

[0022] In a feasible embodiment, determining the clothes drying state based on the first information includes at least one of the following: Obtaining the air humidity in the first information, and determining that the migration of liquid water from the clothing has ended if a change in the air humidity within a first preset time period is less than a first preset threshold; obtaining the weight of the clothing in the first information, and determining that the migration of liquid water from the clothing has ended if a change in the weight of the clothing within a second preset time period is less than a second preset threshold; The weight of the clothes in the first information is obtained, and a drying ratio threshold is determined based on the current clothes weight and the initial clothes weight. If the drying ratio threshold is greater than a third preset threshold, it is determined that the clothes drying is completed.

[0023] In the disclosed embodiment, the drying state can be determined by detecting the air humidity and clothing weight detected by the detection module. In one example, the migration state of liquid water in clothing can be determined by comparing the change in air humidity and clothing weight over a set time period with a preset threshold. In another example, the drying state of clothing can be determined by determining a drying ratio threshold based on the current clothing weight and the initial clothing weight. If the drying ratio threshold is greater than a third preset threshold, indicating that most of the moisture has been removed and the clothing is nearing a completely dry state, it can be determined that the clothing drying is complete. Determining the drying state by collecting the first information helps improve the accuracy and effectiveness of the vibration operation performed by the vibration module based on the drying state indication, thereby improving drying efficiency and reducing the resources consumed by the vibration module.

[0024] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration module includes a plurality of first vibrators capable of operating in different vibration modes and / or a plurality of second vibrators operating in one vibration mode; The vibration modes include a first vibration mode and a second vibration mode; different vibration modes correspond to different vibration parameters; the vibration parameters include vibration frequency and amplitude; the vibration frequency of the first vibration mode is lower than the vibration frequency of the second vibration mode.

[0025] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to enable the vibration module to operate in different vibration modes, an adjustable vibrator is provided, such as a vibrator with adjustable vibration parameters; a fixed vibrator is also provided, such as a vibrator with fixed vibration parameters. By arranging fixed vibrators with different fixed vibration parameters, the vibration module can adapt to different drying needs and operate with corresponding vibration parameters.

[0026] In a feasible embodiment, the drying state includes the completion of liquid water migration from the clothes and the completion of drying the clothes; The instructing the vibration module to perform a vibration operation based on the clothes drying state includes: instructing the vibration module to perform a first vibration operation in a first vibration mode; If the first information indicates that the migration of liquid water in the clothes has ended, instructing to stop the first vibration operation and instructing the vibration module to perform a second vibration operation in the second vibration mode; If the first information indicates that the clothes drying is finished, the second vibration operation is instructed to stop.

[0027] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, while instructing the drying module to start the drying operation, the vibration module can be instructed to start the first vibration operation in the first vibration mode, which is beneficial to increasing the speed of liquid water migration and accelerating moisture migration; then, when the first information collected by the detection module indicates that the liquid water migration of the current clothes is completed, the first vibration operation of the vibration module can be stopped, and the vibration module can be instructed to perform the second vibration operation in the second vibration mode, which can be understood as adjusting the vibration parameters adopted by the vibration module. At this time, the vibration frequency of the vibration module can be increased to destroy the continuity of the water film and increase the evaporation rate of water; finally, when the first information collected by the detection module indicates that the clothes are dried, the second vibration operation of the vibration module can be stopped, so as to achieve the purpose of assisting the drying operation through the vibration operation, improve the overall clothing drying efficiency, avoid the problem of clothing wrinkles caused by the drying operation, and effectively protect the neatness and aesthetics of the clothes.

[0028] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration mode further includes a third vibration mode, and the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the third vibration mode covers the operating range of the first vibration mode and the second vibration mode; The method further comprises: When the first vibration operation and / or the second vibration operation is instructed to be performed, the vibration module is synchronously instructed to perform a third vibration operation in a third vibration mode.

[0029] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the vibration module can also operate in a third vibration mode, and the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the third vibration mode covers the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the first vibration mode and the second vibration mode. Specifically, when performing the first vibration operation and / or the second vibration operation, the vibration module can synchronously instruct the vibration module to perform the third vibration operation in the third vibration mode. It can be understood that the first vibration mode and the second vibration mode are the relativity of low-frequency vibration and high-frequency vibration, and the third vibration mode can be understood as a resonance mode, which can realize the conversion of bound water on the clothes into free water, increase the diffusion coefficient of water, and accelerate water migration and evaporation.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The following describes embodiments of the present disclosure in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the embodiments described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings are exemplary descriptions for explaining the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure and do not constitute a limitation on the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0038] Those skilled in the art will understand that, unless otherwise stated, the singular forms "a," "an," "said," and "the" used herein may also include the plural forms. It should be further understood that the terms "including" and "comprising" used in the embodiments of the present disclosure mean that the corresponding features can be implemented as the features, information, data, steps, operations, elements, and / or components presented, but do not exclude implementation as other features, information, data, steps, operations, elements, components, and / or combinations thereof supported by the present technical field.

The term "and / or" used herein indicates at least one of the items defined by the term, for example, "A and / or B" or "A, B" indicates implementation as "A," or implementation as "B," or implementation as "A and B."

[0039] The term "based on" used in various embodiments of the present disclosure can be interpreted as meaning that the premise, condition, or information on which the basis is based is not exclusive, but at least one or a portion of it. This means that there is at least one clear basis, and other possible bases are not excluded.

[0040] The following describes several exemplary embodiments to illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present disclosure and the technical effects produced by the technical solutions of the present disclosure. It should be noted that the following embodiments can refer to, draw on, or combine with each other, and the same terms, similar features, and similar implementation steps in different embodiments will not be repeated.

[0041] The control system of the intelligent clothes drying machine provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure is described in detail below.

[0042] Specifically, the smart clothes drying machine includes a main unit and a clothes drying rod assembly. The control system applied to the smart clothes drying machine includes a main control module, a clothes drying module and a vibration module which can be adapted to be arranged on the components of the smart clothes drying machine, such as Figure 1 shown.

[0043] The main control module can be built into the main unit and integrates various hardware and software functions to achieve intelligent control of the clothes drying machine. Optionally, the main control module includes a microprocessor (MCU), a sensor interface (for connecting to various sensors), a motor drive circuit (for controlling the lifting motor), and a wireless communication unit (for connecting to external devices and functional modules installed on the clothes drying rod assembly).

[0044] The drying module can be installed on the main unit and communicate with the main control module, allowing it to dry clothes under the control of the main control module. Optionally, the drying module can include a dryer or air dryer to dry or air dry clothes. In one example, the drying module can be installed at the bottom of the main unit and discharge air toward one side of the drying rod assembly.

[0045] Among them, the vibration module can be arranged on the drying rod assembly and communicated with the main control module, and is used to perform vibration operations using corresponding vibration parameters under the control of the main control module based on the drying state of the clothes during the drying operation, so as to vibrate the clothes hanging on the drying rod assembly.

[0046] The disclosed embodiments can implement a vibration-assisted clothes drying function. Based on the drying process, mechanical vibrations accelerate moisture migration and evaporation, improving clothing drying efficiency. This helps meet users' demands for quick clothes drying and resolves the problem of wrinkles in clothes caused by the drying process, maintaining the neatness and aesthetics of clothes. Furthermore, the vibration parameters used by the vibration module can be adjusted based on the real-time drying status during the drying process, allowing the vibration module to vibrate in different vibration modes, thereby improving the effectiveness of clothes drying through vibration and reducing the resources consumed by the vibration process.

[0047] In a possible embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the control system may further include a detection module connected to the main control module. The detection module may be arranged on the clothes drying rod assembly, and is used to collect first information related to the clothes hanging on the clothes drying rod assembly and transmit it to the main control module.

[0048] Optionally, the detection module may include a humidity detection unit, which can be used to collect the air humidity related to the clothes hanging on the clothes drying rod assembly. Exemplarily, the humidity detection unit is a device for measuring the water vapor content in the air, which can be obtained by arranging a humidity sensor. In order to accurately collect air humidity information, considering that during the drying process of clothes, when water evaporates, the water vapor will diffuse upward. Based on this, the humidity collection unit can be arranged above the clothes drying rod assembly to capture the humidity changes more timely; in addition, the humidity collection unit can also be arranged below the clothes drying rod assembly, such as the end cover of the clothes drying rod assembly, the bottom of the first clothes drying rod, and the bottom of the second clothes drying rod, at a position closer to the clothes, to collect the air humidity close to the clothes hanging area. The air humidity can include various parameters related to the water vapor content in the air, such as relative humidity, absolute humidity, etc.

[0049] Optionally, the detection module may include a weight detection unit, which may be used to collect the weight of the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly. The weight of the clothes may refer to the real-time weight of the clothes, the weight change rate, etc. The weight information may also be transmitted to the main control module for processing and storage.

[0050] Optionally, the main control module may be configured to determine a drying state based on the received first information, and control the drying module and / or the vibration module to operate based on the drying state. The first information may include at least one of air humidity or laundry weight.

[0051] In one example, when the main control module obtains the air humidity in the first information, it can determine whether the change value of the air humidity within the first preset time period is less than the first preset threshold value. If so, it indicates that the rising speed of the air humidity has slowed down or tended to be stable. When the air humidity change is in a very small fluctuation range for a long time, it can be determined that the migration of liquid water is completed (it can be understood that it is only understood as a drying state of the embodiment of the present disclosure, and does not limit the current liquid water in the clothes to be completely migrated).

[0052] In another example, when the main control module obtains the weight of the clothes in the first information, it can determine whether the change value of the weight of the clothes within the second time period is less than the second preset threshold. If so, it indicates that the decrease in the weight of the clothes within a period of time is very small, and the change value is lower than the set threshold, and it can be determined that the migration of liquid water has ended.

[0053] In another example, when the main control module obtains the weight of the clothes in the first information, it can determine the drying ratio threshold based on the current clothes weight and the initial clothes weight. The calculation of the drying ratio threshold ΔW is shown in the following formula (1): ΔW=(W0-W1) / W0×100% In formula (1), W0 is the initial weight of the clothes, which can be the weight of the clothes detected in real time when clothes are hung on the clothes drying rod assembly; W1 is the current weight of the clothes, which can be the weight of the clothes detected in real time during the drying process.

[0054] If the drying ratio threshold is greater than the third preset threshold, such as greater than 95%, it indicates that most of the moisture on the clothes has been removed and the clothes are close to being completely dry, and it is determined that the clothes drying is complete.

[0055] Optionally, the main control module is further connected to an external device, such as a mobile terminal or other smart home device, via a wireless communication unit. The main control module can receive second information sent by the external device and determine the drying status based on the second information, or directly control the operation of the drying module and / or the vibration module based on the second information. In one example, if the second information is input by a mobile terminal, it can be an operation instruction triggered by the user via the mobile terminal, such as activating the vibration module to operate at specific vibration parameters for 30 minutes. The main control module can then directly control the operation of the vibration module based on the second information. In another example, if the second information is input by another home device, for example, a smart window closes upon detecting heavy rain and simultaneously sends second information to the main control module of a smart clothes drying machine. This second information can be information indicating that the window is closed. The main control module of the smart clothes drying machine can then determine the drying status based on the second information (e.g., in a relatively confined space, drying efficiency is improved by using the drying module). This further improves the adaptability of the determined drying status to the environment, improves the accuracy and effectiveness of controlling the operation of the drying module and the vibration module, and thereby improves the drying efficiency of clothes.

[0056] In one feasible embodiment, the vibration module includes a first vibrator and / or a second vibrator. The first vibrator is a vibrator that can operate in different vibration modes, such as an adjustable vibrator, and its vibration parameters can be adjusted to achieve different vibration modes. The second vibrator is a vibrator that operates in one vibration mode, such as a fixed vibrator, and its vibration parameters are fixed and cannot be adjusted. Based on this, the control system can be adapted to the needs of drying clothes by deploying multiple second vibrators operating in different vibration modes, and controlling the vibration module to perform vibration operations using corresponding vibration parameters.

[0057] Optionally, the vibration modes may include a first vibration mode and a second vibration mode, each of which has different vibration parameters, which may include vibration frequency and amplitude. To better meet the needs of drying clothes, the vibration frequency of the first vibration mode may be set to be lower than the vibration frequency of the second vibration mode. In other words, the first vibration mode is a low-frequency vibration mode relative to the second vibration mode, and the second vibration mode is a high-frequency vibration mode relative to the first vibration mode.

[0058] In one example, the low-frequency vibration mode may have a vibration frequency of 50 Hz and an amplitude of 0.5 mm to accelerate the migration of liquid water and increase the migration speed of liquid water. The high-frequency vibration mode may have a vibration frequency of 80 Hz and an amplitude of 0.5 mm to disrupt the continuity of the water film and increase the evaporation rate.

[0059] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration module can be specifically used to perform the following operations: Operation 1: When the clothes drying module is started, the first vibration operation is started synchronously in the first vibration mode.

[0060] Operation 2: When the first information indicates that the migration of liquid water from the clothes has ended, the first vibration operation is stopped, and the second vibration operation is started in the second vibration mode.

[0061] Operation 3: When the first information indicates that the clothes drying is completed, stop the second vibration operation.

[0062] For example, during the drying process, when the drying module is controlled to perform the drying operation, the vibration module may first perform a first vibration operation in a low-frequency vibration mode, subjecting the clothes to low-frequency vibrations to accelerate the migration of liquid water. When the liquid water migration is complete, the first vibration operation may be stopped, and a second vibration operation may be performed in a high-frequency vibration mode, subjecting the clothes to high-frequency vibrations to disrupt the continuity of the water film and accelerate water evaporation. Subsequently, when it is determined that the clothes are completely dried, the second vibration operation is stopped.

[0063] Optionally, the vibration mode also includes a third vibration mode, where the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the third vibration mode covers the operating range of the first and second vibration modes. Relative to the first and second vibration modes, the third vibration mode can be considered a resonant mode, operating synchronously with the low-frequency and high-frequency vibration modes to accelerate water migration and evaporation.

[0064] For example, the low-frequency vibration mode may adopt a vibration frequency of 50 Hz and an amplitude of 0.5 mm; the high-frequency vibration mode may adopt a vibration frequency of 80 Hz and an amplitude of 0.5 mm; the resonance mode has a vibration frequency in the range of 20-200 Hz and an amplitude range of 0.3-1.2 mm.

[0065] Optionally, the vibration module may also be configured to synchronously start a third vibration operation in a third vibration mode while performing the first vibration operation and / or the second vibration operation.

[0066] For example, while performing the first vibration operation or the second vibration operation, the vibration module can also use other vibrators to perform a third vibration operation in a third vibration mode, applying vibration to the clothes in the range of 20-200 Hz, triggering a capillary resonance effect, converting bound water into free water, enhancing the water diffusion system, and further accelerating water migration and evaporation.

[0067] In a feasible embodiment, the clothes drying rod assembly of the intelligent clothes drying machine may include a first clothes drying rod and a second clothes drying rod, the first clothes drying rod is connected to the main unit, and the ends of the two first clothes drying rods arranged in parallel are connected by end caps, and the second clothes drying rod is connected to the first clothes drying rod by a movable rod. Based on this structure, optionally, the vibration module may include a first vibration unit, which is arranged inside the first clothes drying rod, the end cap and / or the second clothes drying rod, that is, the vibration module may include several first vibration units arranged at different positions of the clothes drying rod assembly. Arranging the first vibration unit inside the various components of the clothes drying rod assembly can maintain the integrity of the clothes drying rod assembly and increase the service life of the vibration module. Optionally, the vibration module may also include a second vibration unit that is detachably connected to the clothes drying rod assembly. The detachable connection between the clothes drying rod assembly and the second vibration unit can realize a convenient and simple addition of a vibration function to the original clothes drying machine.

[0068] Optionally, the first vibration unit and the second vibration unit may include a first vibrator and / or a second vibrator. The positional relationship and layout structure of the various components will be described in detail in the subsequent introduction of the embodiment of the intelligent clothes drying machine.

[0069] Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a control method for an intelligent clothes drying machine. This method can be applied to the control system of the intelligent clothes drying machine described in the above embodiment and executed by a main control module.

[0070] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, the control method of the intelligent clothes drying machine includes S101 to S102: S101 : In response to a clothes drying instruction, instruct a clothes drying module to perform a clothes drying operation.

[0071] S102: Based on the drying state of the clothes in the drying operation, instruct the vibration module to use corresponding vibration parameters to perform a vibration operation, so as to vibrate the clothes hung on the drying rod assembly.

[0072] Optionally, the clothes drying instruction can be triggered by the smart clothes drying machine or by the user through an external device. The instruction is used to instruct the functional modules of the smart clothes drying machine to speed up the clothes drying efficiency. Among them, the functional modules related to clothes drying include the clothes drying module and the vibration module.

[0073] Optionally, when responding to a clothes drying instruction, the main control module instructs the clothes drying module to perform a clothes drying operation. Based on the drying status of the clothes drying operation, the main control module instructs the vibration module to perform a vibration operation using corresponding vibration parameters to vibrate the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly. For example, during the clothes drying operation, the clothes drying module blows air toward the clothes. For example, if the clothes drying module is a dryer, hot air can be blown toward the clothes to achieve hot air drying. Accordingly, the vibration module can be activated to mechanically vibrate the clothes, accelerating the migration and evaporation of moisture from the clothes, assisting the clothes drying module in drying the clothes and improving the drying efficiency of the clothes.

[0074] Optionally, the vibration module can use different vibration modes for vibration operations in different drying states. For example, in the early stages of the drying process, to accelerate the migration of liquid water, the vibration module can be instructed to operate in a low-frequency vibration mode; in the middle stages of the drying process, to destroy the continuity of the water film and accelerate water evaporation, the vibration module can be instructed to operate in a high-frequency vibration mode. The low-frequency vibration mode and the high-frequency vibration mode are relative, and the specific vibration parameters used can be determined according to actual conditions, which is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

[0075] In a feasible embodiment, in S102, based on the drying state of the clothes during the drying operation, the vibration module is instructed to perform the vibration operation using corresponding vibration parameters, including steps A1 to A3: Step A1: Acquire first information related to the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly through a detection module.

[0076] Optionally, the detection module may periodically acquire the first information when detecting that clothes are hung on the clothes drying rod assembly, or may acquire the first information at a specific time under the control of the main control module.

[0077] For example, the first information may be air humidity information, such as air humidity collected by a humidity sensor in a clothes hanging area. The first information may also be clothing weight information, such as clothing weight collected by a weighing sensor on a clothes hanging rod assembly (which may include the weight of at least some components of the clothes hanging rod assembly).

[0078] Step A2: Determine the clothes drying state based on the first information.

[0079] Optionally, after acquiring the first information, the main control module may determine the drying state of the clothes using a preset algorithm. Exemplarily, a pre-trained artificial intelligence network is used to process the first information and output a classification result related to the drying state of the clothes to determine the current drying state of the clothes.

[0080] Optionally, determining the clothes drying state based on the first information in step A2 includes at least one of the following steps A21 to A23: Step A21: Acquire the air humidity in the first information. If the change in the air humidity within the first preset time period is less than a first preset threshold, determine that the migration of liquid water in the clothing is complete.

[0081] Step A22: Obtain the weight of the clothes in the first information. If the change in the weight of the clothes within the second preset time period is less than a second preset threshold, it is determined that the migration of liquid water in the clothes is completed.

[0082] Step A23: Obtain the weight of the clothes in the first information, determine a drying ratio threshold based on the current clothes weight and the initial clothes weight, and if the drying ratio threshold is greater than a third preset threshold, determine that the clothes drying is completed.

[0083] Optionally, regarding the specific content of determining the drying state, the relevant description of the above embodiment can be referred to, and the embodiment of the present disclosure will not be repeated here.

[0084] Step A3: Based on the clothes drying status, instruct the vibration module to perform a vibration operation.

[0085] Optionally, the main control module instructs the vibration module to use corresponding vibration parameters for vibration operation according to the drying status, so that the vibration module can use corresponding vibration modes for vibration operation under different drying requirements, thereby improving the efficiency of the vibration module operation.

[0086] In a feasible embodiment, step A3 instructs the vibration module to perform a vibration operation based on the clothes drying state, including steps A31 to A33: Step A31 : instructing the vibration module to perform a first vibration operation in a first vibration mode.

[0087] Step A32: If the first information indicates that the migration of liquid water from the clothes is complete, the first vibration operation is stopped and the vibration module is instructed to perform a second vibration operation in a second vibration mode.

[0088] Step A33: If the first information indicates that the clothes drying is finished, then instruct to stop the second vibration operation.

[0089] For example, during the drying process, when the drying module is controlled to perform the drying operation, the vibration module can first perform a first vibration operation in a low-frequency vibration mode, subjecting the clothes to low-frequency vibrations and accelerating the migration of liquid water. When the liquid water migration is complete, the vibration module can be instructed to stop the first vibration operation and perform a second vibration operation in a high-frequency vibration mode, subjecting the clothes to high-frequency vibrations, thereby breaking the continuity of the water film and accelerating water evaporation. Subsequently, when it is determined that the clothes are drying, the vibration module can be instructed to stop the second vibration operation.

[0090] Optionally, the vibration mode also includes a third vibration mode, and the operating range of the vibration frequency and amplitude of the third vibration mode covers the operating range of the first vibration mode and the second vibration mode. On this basis, the method provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure also includes step A34: when the first vibration operation and / or the second vibration operation is instructed to be performed, synchronously instructing the vibration module to perform the third vibration operation in the third vibration mode.

[0091] For example, while the vibration module is performing the first vibration operation or the second vibration operation, the vibration module can also use other vibrators to perform the third vibration operation in the third vibration mode, apply vibration to the clothes, induce capillary resonance effect, convert bound water into free water, enhance the water diffusion system, and further accelerate water migration and evaporation.

[0092] Optionally, if the vibration module employs multiple first vibrators, then when the first vibration operation (or second vibration operation) and the third vibration operation are performed simultaneously, different first vibrators may be used. If the vibration module employs multiple second vibrators, then when the first vibration operation (or second vibration operation) and the third vibration operation are performed simultaneously, the second vibrators using corresponding vibration parameters may be synchronously controlled to perform the operation.

[0093] In one example, a drying rod assembly includes a first drying rod (e.g., a clothes drying rod) and a second drying rod (e.g., a quilt drying rod). The second drying rod can be movably connected to the first drying rod via a movable rod. A first vibrator and / or a second vibrator operating in a low-frequency vibration mode are disposed on the first drying rod, a first vibrator and / or a second vibrator operating in a high-frequency vibration mode are disposed on the second drying rod, and a first vibrator and / or a second vibrator operating in a resonance mode are disposed on the movable rod. Based on this arrangement, assuming that the clothes drying module uses a dryer to perform drying operations, during the drying process, the main control module can control the vibration module to initially operate in a low-frequency vibration mode. After the liquid water has substantially migrated, the main control module can control the vibration module to cease operation in the low-frequency vibration mode and initiate operation in the high-frequency vibration mode. Finally, when it is determined that the clothes are nearly dry, the main control module can control the vibration module to cease operation in a resonance mode throughout the vibration process, thereby inducing a capillary resonance effect, converting bound water in the clothes into free water, and accelerating water migration and evaporation.

[0094] Based on the same inventive concept, an embodiment of the present disclosure also provides an intelligent clothes drying machine.

[0095] In one embodiment, the smart clothes drying machine includes a host 200 and a clothes drying device 100 .

[0096] Specifically, if Figure 4As shown, the clothes drying device 100 provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure includes a clothes drying rod assembly 10 and a vibration module 20.

[0097] Wherein, a first power supply module 13 is provided on the drying rod assembly 10 .

[0098] Optionally, the first power module 13 has a charging and discharging function, can be charged by an external power source, and can also supply power to the functional modules arranged on the drying rod assembly 10. The first power module 13 can be arranged inside the end cover 12, or inside the rod body 11.

[0099] The vibration module 20 includes at least one of a first vibration unit 21 and a second vibration unit 22 .

[0100] The first vibration unit 21 is disposed within the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 and is connected to the first power module 13. Optionally, the first vibration unit 21 and the first power module 13 may be connected by a wire, with the first power module 13 supplying power to the first vibration unit 21. Placing the first vibration unit 21 within the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 can improve the effectiveness of the first vibration unit 21 in transmitting vibration energy through the clothes-drying rod assembly 10, reducing energy loss due to mechanical transmission. Furthermore, locating the first vibration unit 21 within the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 helps maintain the neatness of the clothes-drying device 100 and increases the service life of the first vibration unit 21.

[0101] The second vibration unit 22 is detachably connected to the clothes drying rod assembly 10 and includes a built-in power supply assembly or is connected to an external power source via external wires. Optionally, to enhance the convenience of adding a vibration function to the existing clothes drying device 100 and reduce operational complexity, the second vibration unit 22 provided in the disclosed embodiment can be detachably connected to the clothes drying rod assembly 10 as an independent component. This means that the second vibration unit 22 can be conveniently installed on the clothes drying rod assembly 10 via a detachable connection without having to modify the existing structure of the clothes drying device 100. Furthermore, to address the power supply issue for the second vibration unit 22, it can include a built-in power supply assembly or be connected to an external power source via external wires, such as to the mains electricity or to the second power module 203 located within the main unit 200 of the clothes drying device 100.

[0102] In the clothes drying device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure, a vibration module 20 is arranged to provide a hardware basis for realizing the function of vibration dehydration of clothes. When the vibration module 20 is operating, the vibration energy generated can be transmitted to the clothes hanging on the clothes drying rod assembly 10, which is beneficial to improving the drying efficiency of clothes, solving the problem of clothes wrinkles caused by drying, and can effectively ensure the neatness and aesthetics of clothes.

[0103] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration module 20 may include a first vibrator and / or a second vibrator.

[0104] The first vibrator is an adjustable vibrator equipped with a frequency modulation structure. The frequency modulation structure can output different vibration parameters, thereby driving the first vibrator to vibrate in different vibration modes. For example, to meet the needs of drying clothes, the first vibrator can use a lower vibration mode in the early stage of the clothing drying process to accelerate the migration of liquid water on the clothes, and a higher vibration mode in the middle of the clothing drying process to break up the continuity of the water film and improve evaporation efficiency.

[0105] Among them, the second vibrator is a fixed vibrator, which vibrates in a corresponding vibration mode using fixed vibration parameters. In order to achieve multiple vibration modes, at least two of the several second vibrators included in the vibration module 20 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure use different vibration parameters. For example, the second vibrator A uses a vibration frequency of 50 Hz, and the second vibrator B uses a vibration frequency of 80 Hz. Several second vibrators A and several second vibrators B can be arranged on the clothes drying device 100 at the same time. Relatively speaking, the vibration mode of the second vibrator A is low-frequency vibration, and the vibration mode of the second vibrator B is high-frequency vibration. Based on this, it is possible to realize the adaptive use of second vibrators with different vibration modes to provide vibration functions based on the needs of drying clothes.

[0106] It is understood that the first vibration unit 21 and the second vibration unit 22 are described by their arrangement positions, while the first vibrator and the second vibrator are described by the physical parameters of the vibrators themselves. In one example, the first vibration unit 21 and the second vibration unit 22 may each include a first vibrator and / or a second vibrator.

[0107] In a feasible embodiment, the drying rod assembly 10 includes a rod body 11, and the rod body 11 may include a first drying rod 111 and a second drying rod 112. The ends of the two parallel first drying rods 111 are connected by an end cap 12, and the second drying rod 112 is connected to the end cap 12 by a movable rod 113. Figure 6 On this basis, when the second airing rod 112 is stacked with the first airing rod 111, the movable rod 113 is stored inside the end cover 12, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 In one example, the first airing rod 111 may be a clothes-drying rod, on which a plurality of mounting components for hanging clothes are arranged, and the second airing rod 112 may be a quilt-drying rod, which is a long, smooth rod. It can be understood that Figure 4 and Figure 5 Two different types of clothes drying devices 100 are shown. However, it should be noted that the clothes drying device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is universal and applicable to any type of clothes drying device 100.

[0108] Optionally, the first power module 13 may be disposed inside the end cover 12 or inside the rod body 11 .

[0109] Optionally, the first vibration unit 21 can be arranged at least one of the end cover 12, the movable rod 113, the first drying rod 111, and the second drying rod 112. In order to solve the power supply problem, when the first vibration unit 21 and the first power module 13 are not arranged on the same component, they can be connected to the first power module 13 through a retractable wire. Exemplarily, the first power module 13 is arranged on the end cover 12, and the first vibration unit 21 is arranged on the first drying rod 111; or, when the first drying rod 111 is a retractable drying rod, the first power module 13 is arranged on the fixed rod of the first drying rod 111, and the first vibration unit 21 is arranged on the retractable rod of the first drying rod 111 (located at both ends of the fixed rod and can be retracted along the length direction); other layout situations can be referred to accordingly, and the embodiments of the present disclosure will not be given one by one here. On the basis of this layout structure, the first power module 13 and the first vibration unit 21 can be connected through a retractable wire. The retractable wire can be a spring-type wire, a slide-type retractable wire, a reel-type retractable wire, a magnetic retractable wire, etc., which has functions such as retraction and reset, and can provide support for the retraction and flexible position change of the first drying rod 111, the second drying rod 112 and the movable rod 113.

[0110] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the retractable electric wire is also hidden inside the clothes drying rod assembly 10, which helps to improve the neatness and aesthetics of the clothes drying device 100 while ensuring the stability of power supply.

[0111] In one example, the first vibration unit 21 may include a first vibrator, which may be disposed in the middle of the first drying rod 111 and / or the second drying rod 112. Figure 4 The first vibrator disposed in the middle of the first drying rod 111 and / or the second drying rod 112 can provide relatively uniform vibration energy for the clothes hung on the drying rod assembly 10, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the clothes.

[0112] In one example, the first vibration unit 21 may include a plurality of second vibrators operating with first vibration parameters and a plurality of second vibrators operating with second vibration parameters. The second vibrators may be symmetrically arranged along the length of the first drying rod 111 and / or the second drying rod 112 based on the fixed vibration parameters. For example, the second vibrators A using the first vibration parameters and the second vibrators B using the second vibration parameters may be arranged along the length of the first drying rod 111 and / or the second drying rod 112 in an interval arrangement of BAB, that is, with the position of A as the center line of symmetry and the second vibrators arranged outwardly on both sides.

[0113] In one example, the first vibration unit 21 may include a second vibrator that operates with a third vibration parameter, and the second vibrator may be arranged inside the movable rod 113. Optionally, compared with the vibration energy transmitted to the clothes by the first drying rod 111 and the second drying rod 112, due to the particularity of the arrangement position of the movable rod 113, the vibration energy transmitted to the clothes is different. In order to balance the required energy consumption and the drying efficiency brought by the vibration, the embodiment of the present disclosure adopts the arrangement of the second vibration parameter with a fixed vibration parameter in the movable rod 113. On the one hand, when the second drying rod 112 is stacked on the first drying rod 111, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the state shown, the movable rod 113 is stored in the end cover 12, and the vibration energy generated by the second vibrator is transmitted to the first drying rod 111 and the second drying rod 112 through the end cover 12, providing vibration energy in the vertical direction of the clothes hanging; on the other hand, when the second drying rod 112 is lowered, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 In the state shown, the movable rod 113 provides vibration energy in the horizontal direction of the clothes hanging to dry (at this time, the movable rod 113 is in a position perpendicular to the first and second drying rods 111, 112, and the vibration energy of the vibrator disposed therein in the vertical direction is weakened, while the vibration energy in the horizontal direction transmitted by the movable rod 113 to the first and second drying rods 111, 112, and thus to the clothes is relatively stronger, highlighting the provision of vibration energy in the horizontal direction), thereby improving the drying efficiency of the clothes. On the other hand, because the vibration energy transmitted to the clothes by the movable rod 113 is lower than the vibration energy transmitted to the clothes by the first or second drying rods 111, 112, and the vibrator disposed in the movable rod 113 is used to perform a vibration operation in a resonance mode, the second vibrator using the third vibration parameter is disposed in the movable rod 113, and the deployment cost of the vibration module 20 can be reduced while maintaining the effectiveness of the vibration operation.

[0114] Optionally, the vibrator arranged in the movable rod 113 may also be a second vibrator with other fixed vibration parameters, or a first vibrator, which can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0115] In a feasible embodiment, the vibration parameters may include vibration frequency and amplitude. Based on the above-mentioned layout structure, the embodiment of the present disclosure sets the vibration frequency in the first vibration parameter to be lower than the vibration frequency of the second vibration parameter, and the value range of the vibration frequency and amplitude in the third vibration parameter covers the vibration frequency and amplitude in the first vibration parameter and the second vibration parameter.

[0116] The first vibration parameter may be a vibration frequency of 50 Hz and an amplitude of 0.5 mm.

[0117] The second vibration parameter may be a vibration frequency of 80 Hz and an amplitude of 0.5 mm.

[0118] The third vibration parameter may be a vibration frequency in the range of 20-200 Hz and an amplitude in the range of 0.3-1.2 mm.

[0119] Optionally, the first vibrator can be adjusted to the above three vibration parameters through a frequency modulation structure to perform vibration operations.

[0120] Under the above vibration parameters, the vibration mode corresponding to the first vibration parameter can be called a low-frequency vibration mode, the vibration mode corresponding to the second vibration parameter can be called a high-frequency vibration mode, and the vibration mode corresponding to the third vibration parameter can be called a resonance mode. Different vibration modes of the vibrator can adapt to different drying requirements and perform different vibration operations at different stages of clothing drying. It should be noted that the above vibration parameters are only examples and can be adjusted according to actual conditions. The embodiments of the present disclosure are not limited to this.

[0121] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the vibrators arranged at different positions operate with different vibration parameters, which is conducive to adapting to the needs of drying clothes, generating different vibration energies at different positions, and improving the efficiency of drying clothes.

[0122] In a feasible embodiment, the first drying rod 111 and the second drying rod 112 include a main rod 114 and telescopic rods 115 nested at both ends of the main rod 114. Figure 5 and Figure 6 On this basis, when the first vibration unit 21 is arranged inside the main rod 114, it does not interfere with the telescopic rod 115. For example, Figure 7 As shown, taking the main rod 114 of the second drying rod 112 as an example, the cross-sectional structure of the first vibration unit 21 arranged inside the main rod 114 is as follows: Figure 7 As shown in the left figure, accordingly, the part of the telescopic rod 115 nested inside the main rod 114 is provided with an avoidance structure 115a, and its cross-sectional structure is as follows Figure 7 As shown in the right figure, on this basis, it can be ensured that the first vibration unit 21 and the telescopic rod 115 do not interfere with each other.

[0123] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to adapt to the telescopic function of the first drying rod 111 and the second drying rod 112 and avoid conflicts between the physical structures arranged for the telescopic function and the vibration function, when the first vibration unit 21 is located inside the main rod 114, the first vibration unit 21 and the telescopic rod 115 do not interfere with each other, which is conducive to improving the feasibility of arranging vibrators in the telescopic drying rods to achieve clothing vibration, and effectively avoids the interference of the structural basis for the newly added vibration function on the original basis in the clothes drying device 100.

[0124] In one feasible embodiment, the second vibration unit 22 includes a housing and a first vibrator or a second vibrator disposed within the housing. A detachable structure for connecting to the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 is disposed on the exterior of the housing. Alternatively, the detachable structure may include a threaded connection, a snap-on connection, a quick-release clamp, or the like.

[0125] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, in order to improve the convenience of detachable connection between the first vibrator and / or the second vibrator and the clothes-drying rod assembly 10, a shell for accommodating the first vibrator and / or the second vibrator is provided, and a detachable structure for connecting to the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 is arranged on the outside of the shell, so that when the user uses the vibration function, the second vibration unit 22 can be conveniently and simply installed on the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 through the shell, avoiding the problem that the addition of the vibration function requires the disassembly of the clothes-drying rod assembly 10, thereby improving the feasibility of the arrangement of the vibration function of the clothes. In one example, the shell can form a cavity for accommodating the first vibrator and / or the second vibrator, and the first vibrator and / or the second vibrator can be fixed in the cavity. In another example, the shell can also be a non-cavity structure, but a component for quickly fixing the vibrator, such as a clamp that matches the shape of the vibrator, one side of the clamp is connected to the vibrator, and the other side is connected to the clothes-drying rod assembly 10. Exemplarily, the structure of the detachable connection between the second vibration unit 22 and the end cover 12 in the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 is as follows: Figure 4 shown.

[0126] In a feasible embodiment, the clothes drying device 100 may further include a detection module 30, which collects information related to the clothes hung for drying, and uses the information to assist the vibration module 20 in performing the vibration operation to improve the vibration efficiency.

[0127] Optionally, the detection module 30 may include a humidity detection unit 31, which can be used to collect air humidity information related to the clothes hung on the clothes-drying rod assembly 10. Exemplarily, the humidity detection unit 31 is a device for measuring the water vapor content in the air and can be obtained by deploying a humidity sensor. To accurately collect air humidity information, considering that water vapor will diffuse upward as the clothes dry, the humidity collection unit can be deployed above the clothes-drying rod assembly 10 to more promptly capture humidity changes. Alternatively, the humidity collection unit can be deployed below the clothes-drying rod assembly 10, such as at the bottom of the end cap 12, the first clothes-drying rod 111, or the second clothes-drying rod 112, closer to the clothes, to collect air humidity information close to the clothes-drying area. The air humidity information can include various parameters related to the water vapor content in the air, such as relative humidity and absolute humidity.

[0128] Optionally, the detection module 30 may include a weight detection unit 32, which can be used to collect weight information related to the clothes hung on the clothes-drying rod assembly 10. Exemplarily, the weight detection unit 32 can be a device for measuring the weight of an object, such as a load cell. The weight detection unit 32 can be located at the two end supports of the rod body 11 (e.g., near the end caps 12) to directly measure the total weight of the entire rod body 11 and the clothes hung on it. It can also be located on the mounting assembly of the first clothes-drying rod 111 to measure the weight of each piece of clothes hung on it. It can also be located on the second clothes-drying rod 112 to measure the weight of individual clothes hung on the second clothes-drying rod 112. The clothing weight information can include the real-time weight of the clothes, the rate of weight change, and the like. The clothing weight information can also be transmitted to the main control module 201 of the smart clothes-drying machine for processing and storage.

[0129] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, a smart clothes drying machine is provided, whose frame structure is as follows: Figure 8 Specifically, the smart clothes drying machine may include a host 200 and a clothes drying device 100 connected to the host 200.

[0130] The host 200 includes a main control module 201 and a second power module 203. The vibration module 20 in the clothes drying device 100 is wirelessly connected to the main control module 201. Under the control of the main control module 201, the vibration module 20 is configured to vibrate the clothes hung on the clothes drying rod assembly 10, thereby causing them to vibrate. Optionally, the main control module 201 is configured to receive signals, process data, and issue control instructions to various functional modules. The main control module 201 may include a main control chip and a communication unit (e.g., a component supporting wired and wireless communication). The second power module 203 is connected to the mains electricity to power the host 200 and can also supply power to the first power module 13 in the clothes drying rod assembly 10 (e.g., when the first clothes drying rod 111 is raised, the location of the first power module 13 in the clothes drying rod assembly 10 contacts the location of the second power module 203 in the host 200, thereby charging the second power module 203).

[0131] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the provided smart clothes drying machine is compared with the clothes drying machines in the prior art. Through the arrangement of the vibration module 20, a clothing vibration function is added to accelerate the migration and evaporation of moisture on the clothes, which can effectively improve the efficiency of clothing drying, avoid the problem of clothing wrinkles caused by drying or air-drying the clothes, and ensure the neatness and aesthetics of the clothes.

[0132] In a feasible embodiment, the intelligent clothes drying machine further includes a clothes drying module 202 disposed on the host 200 . The clothes drying module 202 is connected to the main control module 201 and is used to perform clothes drying operations under the control of the main control module 201 .
