Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of intelligent washing and drying equipment, and in particular to an intelligent washing and drying equipment, an intelligent washing and drying control and management system, and an application terminal. Background Art
[0002] The washer-dryer is mainly used for cleaning and drying items. When the washer-dryer cleans and dries items, the cleaning device in the washer-dryer first cleans all items. When all items are cleaned, the drying device in the washer-dryer dries all items. This independent cleaning and drying method makes the cleaning and drying efficiency of the existing washer-dryer low. At the same time, the washer-dryer will disinfect the items during the cleaning stage or disinfect the items during the drying stage during the cleaning and drying process. This single disinfection method cannot thoroughly disinfect the surface of the items, which results in the existing washer-dryer being only suitable for daily households and cannot meet the hygiene standards of the medical, food industry, hotel and other industries. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent washing and drying device to solve the technical problems raised in the above background technology that the existing washing and drying devices have low efficiency in cleaning, disinfecting and drying items and choose a single method for disinfection; and cannot meet the hygiene standards of industries such as medical care, food industry, and hotels.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: intelligent washing and drying equipment, including a cabinet body, in which a circulating conveying device for carrying items to move within the cabinet is provided. The items are cleaned and disinfected when they move at the lower part of the cabinet body, and are dried and disinfected when they move at the upper part of the cabinet body.
[0005] Through the above technical solution, when the circulating conveying device carries items from the lower part of the cabinet to the upper part of the cabinet, the items are first cleaned and disinfected and then dried and disinfected after entering the upper part of the cabinet, which is equivalent to completing cleaning and drying disinfection of the items in a single cycle in the cabinet. Therefore, the intelligent washing and drying equipment of the present invention is more efficient in cleaning, disinfecting and drying items; at the same time, during the movement of the items in the cabinet, two disinfection methods of disinfection during cleaning and disinfection during drying are adopted. Compared with the single disinfection method adopted in the prior art, the disinfection in this embodiment is more thorough, thereby improving the hygiene standards of the items.
[0006] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the circulating conveying device includes two transmission components relatively installed in the cabinet, a plurality of placement components for placing items are installed between the two transmission components, the transmission components include a transmission belt and an upper transmission train and a lower transmission train, the upper transmission train is adjacent to the top of the cabinet, the lower transmission train is adjacent to the bottom of the cabinet, a transition transmission train is arranged between the upper transmission train and the lower transmission train, the upper transmission train, the lower transmission train and the transition transmission train are all engaged with the transmission belt, the transmission belt carries the placement component from the lower transmission train to the upper transmission train, and moves up and down between the upper transmission train and the transition transmission train, and returns to the lower transmission train.
[0007] Through the above technical solution, when the air temperature of the cabinet rises, the air with higher temperature gathers to the top of the cabinet, thereby forming a high-temperature drying area in the cabinet. By setting a transition transmission train between the upper transmission train and the lower transmission train, the articles move up and down in the vertical direction between the upper transmission train and the lower transmission train. Compared with the prior art in which the conveying device carries articles to move in the washing and drying equipment in a circular route, the circulating conveying device of the present invention carries articles and moves up and down in the process of moving from the front side to the rear side of the intelligent washing and drying equipment, so that the hot air in the high-temperature drying area in the cabinet contacts the articles more evenly, so that the drying effect of the articles in a single cycle in the high-temperature drying area is better.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the cleaning and disinfection device includes a steam component for cleaning and disinfecting objects and an ultraviolet component for disinfecting objects and the air in the cabinet. The ultraviolet component is installed on the front side of the cabinet and is adjacent to the upper transmission column, and the steam component is installed on the rear side of the cabinet and is located between the transition transmission column and the lower transmission column.
[0009] When the placement component moves between the upper transmission train and the transition transmission train, the ultraviolet rays generated by the ultraviolet component directly irradiate the surface of the items on the placement component. At the same time, the ultraviolet component disinfects the air between the upper transmission train and the transition transmission train when it is working, so that the items on the placement component are dried in a relatively sterile environment and the items are disinfected again, so that the surface of the items is fully and thoroughly disinfected.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the circulating purification device includes an adsorption component and an air intake component, the adsorption component and the air intake component are through-connected, the adsorption component and the transition transmission are adjacent and located directly above the steam component, and the air intake component is installed at the bottom of the cabinet; the adsorption component is used to circulate the air in the cabinet and discharge water droplets adsorbed on the surface of the objects to the outside of the cabinet; the air intake component circulates and heats the circulating air.
[0011] Background: Existing washer-dryers typically use electric heating to heat the air outside the smart washer-dryer during drying. The heated air then enters the cabinet, raising the temperature inside. However, as the air is heated, it is in a flowing state, so some unheated air still exists within the heated air. When this unheated air enters the smart washer-dryer, it causes the temperature inside the cabinet to fluctuate.
[0012] 1) Since the adsorption component is located above the steam component, when the steam component is cleaning and disinfecting items, the steam ejected by the steam component cleans the items and then moves toward the adsorption component. When the steam passes through the adsorption component, it is discharged outside the cabinet by the adsorption component, so that the air and steam in the adsorption component are mixed in the adsorption component. The water droplets generated by the exchange during the mixing are collected by the adsorption component, thereby reducing the moisture content of the air in the cabinet, making the air in the cabinet drier, and further accelerating the drying speed of the items; at the same time, the steam and the circulating air are mixed to increase the temperature of the air circulating in the adsorption component. When the circulating air passes through the air intake component and is heated again, the setting makes the heating efficiency in the intelligent washing and drying equipment faster;
[0013] 2) Since the air intake component is installed at the bottom of the cabinet, the air heated by the air intake component moves to the top of the cabinet. At the same time, the adsorption component and the steam component are adjacent, and the steam component and the bottom of the cabinet are adjacent. Therefore, a high-temperature drying area is formed between the adsorption component and the top of the cabinet. Therefore, during the movement of the placement component between the upper transmission column and the transition transmission column, the items on the placement component are always in a high-temperature environment. At the same time, the items enter the high-temperature drying area for drying immediately after being cleaned and disinfected, thereby improving the working efficiency of the intelligent washing and drying equipment.
[0014] 3) The present invention circulates and heats the air in the cabinet through a circulation purification device, without the introduction of fresh air during the air circulation process; this reduces temperature fluctuations in the cabinet, thereby improving the thermostatic properties of the cabinet; and the air in the cabinet is constantly circulating, thereby achieving a more uniform temperature distribution in the cabinet.
[0015] 4) The circulating purification device of the present invention collects water droplets adsorbed on the surface of the articles while circulating the air, so that no watermarks are left on the surface of the articles during the drying process;
[0016] 5) Before the cleaning and disinfection device works, the items in the cabinet are preheated through the circulation purification device to reduce the difference between the temperature of the items and the temperature of the steam sprayed by the cleaning and disinfection device; when the cleaning and disinfection device cleans and disinfects the items, it prevents the items from being damaged during the cleaning and disinfection process; at the same time, it reduces the temperature difference between the items and the steam, slows down the condensation rate of the steam, and reduces the amount of water droplets generated on the surface of the objects.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the adsorption component includes two parallel suction pipes and a collection box installed in the cabinet, the suction pipes and the collection box are connected in a through-connection manner, an adsorption channel for objects to pass through is provided between the two suction pipes, a plurality of suction holes extending toward the adsorption channel are provided on the suction pipes, a negative pressure fan is installed on the top of the collection box, the air suction port of the negative pressure fan is connected in a through-connection manner with the suction pipes, a collection box is installed on the top of the collection box, the collection box cover is provided on the air outlet of the negative pressure fan, an exhaust duct is provided on the collection box, and the exhaust duct is connected to the air intake component through a pipeline.
[0018] When the negative pressure fan is working, the air in the cabinet and the water droplets adsorbed on the surface of the objects are discharged outside the cabinet through the suction tube. The collection box collects the water droplets adsorbed on the surface of the objects to prevent the water droplets from scattering outside the cabinet. The air in the cabinet is discharged from the air outlet of the negative pressure fan and collected in the collection box. The air in the collection box re-enters the cabinet through the exhaust pipe and the air intake assembly.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the steam assembly includes two parallel steam pipes and a steam generator installed in a cabinet. The steam pipes are connected to the steam generator. A cleaning channel is provided between the two steam pipes. The steam pipes are provided with multiple injection holes extending toward the cleaning channel.
[0020] 1) Since the steam ejected from the jet hole can penetrate into the gaps and corners on the surface of the object, the dirt is removed from the surface through physical action, and the surface cleaning effect is more thorough. At the same time, when the steam penetrates into the gaps and corners on the surface of the object, it can disinfect it, and the surface disinfection of the object is more thorough.
[0021] 2) Since the area covered by a unit volume of liquid converted into steam is larger than the area covered by the unit volume; compared with the prior art of directly using liquid for cleaning, the present invention requires less water when using steam to clean and disinfect items, thus saving more water resources.
[0022] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the air intake assembly includes an air duct and an air inlet pipe and an air supply port arranged on the air duct. The air inlet pipe and the air exhaust pipe are connected through, and a heating plate is provided at the air supply port, and the heating plate is fixedly installed on the air duct.
[0023] By installing a heating plate on the air duct, the heating plate heats the air flowing out of the air outlet; therefore, there is no need to set up an additional heating device in the cabinet, making the structure inside the cabinet more compact; compared with the prior art of setting up an independent heating device in the cabinet, the production cost of the present invention is lower.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the placement assembly includes a placement rod and a pin shaft installed on the transmission belt, connecting rods are provided at both ends of the placement rod, and multiple placement positions for placing items are provided between the two connecting rods. A connecting block is provided at the end of each connecting rod, and the connecting block is rotatably connected to the pin shaft.
[0025] Through the setting of the connecting rod, when the item is placed on the placement position, the center of gravity of the placement rod and the center of gravity of the item are both located below the axis of the pin shaft; when the placement component moves with the transmission belt, the placement rod and the item on the placement rod are always in a vertical state, thereby preventing the item from falling from the placement rod.
[0026] The present invention also provides an intelligent washing and drying control and management system, which is applied to the above-mentioned intelligent washing and drying equipment, and includes a main control module. First, corresponding control parameters are set on the main control module; then the main control module controls the start-up of the circulating purification device, the circulating conveying device and the cleaning and disinfection device according to the control parameters, the circulating conveying device carries the items to move in the cabinet, the circulating purification device dries the items circulating in the cabinet, and the cleaning and disinfection device cleans, disinfects and disinfects the items again when drying. Finally, the main control template controls the start-up of the circulating purification device, the circulating conveying device and the stop of the cleaning and disinfection device according to the control parameters and records the disinfection information.
[0027] The main control module controls the circulation purification device, circulation conveying device and cleaning and disinfection device according to the set control parameters to perform automatic control, thereby improving the intelligence of the cabinet.
[0028] The present invention also provides an application terminal that applies the above-mentioned intelligent washing and drying control and management system to input control parameters into the main control module, obtain disinfection information recorded on the main control module, and control the start and stop of the intelligent washing and drying equipment.
[0029] In addition to the technical problems solved by the present invention, the technical features that constitute the technical solutions, and the advantages brought about by the technical features of these technical solutions described above, other technical problems that can be solved by the present invention, other technical features included in the technical solutions, and the advantages brought about by these technical features will be further described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0040] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0041] See also Figure 1-7As shown, the intelligent washing and drying equipment provided in this embodiment is used to wash, dry and disinfect items, including a cabinet 01, a cabinet 01 and an installation room are provided in the cabinet 01, a front cabinet door that can be opened and closed is provided on one side of the cabinet 01, and a normally closed rear cabinet door is provided on the other side of the cabinet 01. The cabinet 01 is formed between the front cabinet door and the rear cabinet door. After the front cabinet door is opened, the items are placed in the cabinet 01. After the front cabinet door is closed, the items are washed, disinfected and dried in the cabinet 01.
[0042] A circulating conveying device 101, a cleaning and disinfecting device 300, and a circulating purification device 200 are provided in the cabinet 01. The circulating conveying device 101 is used to carry items back and forth in the cabinet 01. The cleaning and disinfecting device 300 is used to clean and disinfect the items during the movement and to disinfect the items when drying. The circulating purification device 200 is used to dry the items.
[0043] The circulating conveying device includes two transmission components relatively installed in the cabinet 01, and multiple placement components 103 for placing items are installed between the two transmission components 102. The transmission component 102 includes a transmission belt and an upper transmission train and a lower transmission train. The upper transmission train is adjacent to the top of the cabinet 01, and the lower transmission train is adjacent to the bottom of the cabinet. A transition transmission train is arranged between the upper transmission train and the lower transmission train. The upper transmission train, the lower transmission train and the transition transmission train are all engaged with the transmission belt. The transmission belt carries the placement component 103 from the lower transmission train to the upper transmission train, and then moves up and down between the upper transmission train and the transition transmission train, and finally returns from the upper transmission train to the lower transmission train.
[0044] When the air temperature of the cabinet rises, the air with higher temperature gathers to the top of the cabinet, thereby forming a high-temperature area in the cabinet. By setting a transition transmission column 107 between the upper transmission column 106 and the lower transmission column 108, the items move up and down in the vertical direction between the upper transmission column 106 and the lower transmission column 108. Compared with the prior art in which the conveying device carries the items and moves along a straight line, the circulating conveying device of this embodiment carries the items from the front side to the back side of the intelligent washing and drying equipment along a curve, and the items are always in the high-temperature area, which increases the residence time of the items in the high-temperature area in the cabinet, so the items are dried more efficiently in the intelligent washing and drying equipment.
[0045] See also Figure 2-3As shown, the circulating conveying device 101 also includes a transmission shaft 104 that drives the two transmission components 102 to work synchronously. The two ends of the transmission shaft 104 are respectively connected to the cabinet 01 through bearings for rotation. A driving source 105 that drives the transmission shaft 104 to rotate is fixedly installed on the cabinet 01. The driving source 105 is located in the installation room and is preferably a reduction motor. The upper transmission column 106, the transition transmission column 107, and the lower transmission column 108 all include multiple transmission wheels. The transmission wheel 109 is rotatably mounted on the cabinet 01 via a ball bearing. The transmission wheel in this embodiment is a sprocket. In other embodiments, the transmission wheel can be a synchronous wheel.
[0046] The lower transmission train 108 includes two transmission wheels 109 . The two transmission wheels 109 are located on the same horizontal plane. One of the transmission wheels 109 in the lower transmission train 108 is fixedly mounted on the transmission shaft 104 .
[0047] When in use, after placing an item on the placement component 103, the driving source 105 drives the transmission shaft 104 to rotate when it works, and the transmission shaft 104 drives the transmission wheel 109 on the lower transmission column 108 to rotate to move the transmission belt. When the transmission belt moves, it drives the placement component 103 and the items on the placement component 103 to move in the cabinet 01.
[0048] The outermost drive pulley 109 in the upper drive train 106 and the outermost drive pulley 109 in the lower drive train 108 are both vertically meshed with a first drive belt. The two drive pulleys 109 in the lower drive train 108 are horizontally meshed with a second drive belt. A third drive belt is meshed between vertically adjacent pairs of the drive pulleys 109 in the upper drive train 106 and the drive pulleys 109 in the transition drive train 107. The first, second, and third drive belts together form a complete drive belt 110. The drive pulleys 109 in the upper drive train 106 and the drive pulleys 109 in the lower drive train 108 are respectively meshed with the inner sides of the drive belt 110, while the drive pulleys 109 in the transition drive train 107 are meshed with the outer sides of the drive belt 110. The drive belt in this embodiment is a chain; in other embodiments, the drive belt may be a synchronous belt.
[0049] During use, the operator places an item on the placement assembly 103 on the front side of the circular conveyor device. The item first moves from the lower transmission column 108 to the upper transmission column 106, then moves up and down between the upper transmission column and the transition transmission column, and then moves from the upper transmission column 106 to the lower transmission column 108 to complete a single cycle.
[0050] By setting a transition transmission train 107 between the upper transmission train 106 and the lower transmission train 108, the items move up and down in the vertical direction between the upper transmission train 106 and the lower transmission train 108. Compared with the prior art in which the conveying device carries the items and moves along a straight line, the circulating conveying device of this embodiment carries the items from the front side to the rear side of the intelligent washing and drying equipment along a curve, thereby increasing the residence time of the items in the highest temperature area in the cabinet, so that the items are better dried in the intelligent washing and drying equipment.
[0051] See also Figure 3 As shown, the placement component 103 includes a placement rod 111 and a pin 112 installed on the transmission belt 110, and connecting rods 113 are provided at both ends of the placement rod 111. A plurality of placement positions 114 for placing items are provided between the two connecting rods 113, and a connecting block 115 is provided at the end of each connecting rod 113. The connecting block 115 is provided with a connecting hole adapted to the pin 112, and the placement rod 111 and the pin 112 are rotatably connected through the cooperation of the connecting hole and the pin 112.
[0052] By configuring the connecting rod 113, when an item is placed on the placement position 114, the center of gravity of the placement rod 111 and the item are both located below the axis of the pin 112. As the placement assembly 103 moves along the conveyor belt 110, the placement rod 111 and the item on it remain in a vertical position, thereby preventing the item from falling off the placement rod 111.
[0053] The placement rod 111 and the pin 112 are rotatably connected. Since the pin 112 is fixedly installed on the transmission belt 110, the pin 112 moves synchronously with the transmission belt 110. When the transmission belt 110 passes through the transmission wheel 109, the placement rod 111 and the items on the placement rod 111 are still in a vertical downward state.
[0054] The cleaning and disinfecting device 300 includes a steam assembly for cleaning and disinfecting items, and a UV assembly for disinfecting items and the air inside the cabinet. The UV assembly is mounted on the front side of the cabinet 01, adjacent to the upper transmission train, while the steam assembly is mounted on the rear side of the cabinet 01, between the transition transmission train and the lower transmission train. When the placement assembly 103 moves between the upper and transition transmission trains, the UV light generated by the UV assembly directly impinges on the surface of the items on the placement assembly. Simultaneously, the UV assembly disinfects the air between the upper and transition transmission trains, allowing the items on the placement assembly 103 to move in a relatively sterile environment.
[0055] See also Figure 7As shown, the steam assembly includes two steam pipes 301 located within the cabinet 01 and a steam generator 302 located within the installation chamber. The steam pipes 301 are connected to the steam generator 302 in a continuous manner. The two steam pipes 301 are arranged in parallel, with a cleaning channel 303 disposed between them. The steam pipes 301 are provided with multiple spray holes 304. Steam generated by the steam generator 302 is ejected from the spray holes 304 into the cleaning channel 303 through the steam pipes 301. As items pass through the cleaning channel 303, the steam acts on the surface of the items, cleaning and disinfecting them. Because the steam ejected from the spray holes 304 is high-temperature, it softens and loosens stains on the surface of the items. Furthermore, the steam has a certain initial velocity when it is ejected from the spray holes 304. Once the stains on the surface of the items are softened or loosened, the impact force generated by the steam can remove the stains from the surface. At the same time, steam can penetrate into the gaps and corners on the surface of objects, peeling off dirt from the surface through physical action, making the surface cleaning effect more thorough.
[0056] High-temperature steam has a sterilizing effect and can effectively disinfect the surface of objects. Compared to the existing method of using chemical detergents for disinfection and cleaning, which requires large amounts of water to rinse afterward to reduce chemical residue, this embodiment uses steam cleaning without chemical detergents, which not only improves the hygiene standards of objects but also eliminates the rinsing step and reduces water consumption.
[0057] Since the area covered by a unit volume of liquid converted into steam is larger than the area covered by a unit volume, compared with the prior art of directly using liquid for cleaning, the present embodiment uses steam to clean items, requiring less water and saving more water resources.
[0058] A storage box 305 is also installed in the installation room, and the storage box 305 is connected to the steam generator 302. By placing liquid in the storage box 305, the liquid consumed when the steam generator 302 works can be replenished in time, so that the steam generator 302 can generate steam sustainably.
[0059] The UV lamp assembly includes a UV lamp 305 installed within cabinet 01. UV lamp 305 is mounted on the side wall of cabinet 01 and adjacent to the top of cabinet 01. In other embodiments, UV lamp 305 can be installed elsewhere within cabinet 01, which will not be detailed here. As the circulating conveyor moves items within cabinet 01, UV lamp 305 disinfects the items once more, ensuring a comprehensive surface disinfection and achieving a higher level of hygiene.
[0060] The circulation purification device includes an adsorption component and an air intake component. The adsorption component and the transition transmission are adjacent and located directly above the steam component, and the air intake component is installed at the bottom of the cabinet. The adsorption component is used to circulate the air in the cabinet and discharge the water droplets adsorbed on the surface of the items; the air intake component circulates and heats the circulated air. Since the adsorption component is located above the steam component, when the steam component cleans and disinfects the items, the steam sprayed by the steam component cleans the items and then moves toward the adsorption component. When the steam passes through the adsorption component, it is circulated by the adsorption component, so that the air and steam in the adsorption component are mixed. Heat exchange occurs between the two, and the water droplets generated and the water droplets adsorbed on the surface of the items are collected by the adsorption component, thereby reducing the moisture content of the air in the cabinet, making the air in the cabinet drier, and further accelerating the drying speed of the items. At the same time, the steam and the circulating air are mixed to increase the temperature of the air circulating in the adsorption component. When the circulating air is heated again through the air intake component, the setting makes the heating efficiency in the intelligent washing and drying equipment faster.
[0061] Because the air intake assembly is mounted at the bottom of the cabinet, air heated by the air intake assembly moves toward the top of the cabinet, while the cool air within the cabinet moves toward the bottom. Since the adsorption assembly and the steam assembly are adjacent, and the steam assembly is adjacent to the bottom of the cabinet, the area between the adsorption assembly and the cabinet top is a high-temperature area. Since the upper transmission train is located at the top of the cabinet and the adsorption assembly is located to one side of the transition transmission train, the items on the placement assembly 103 are constantly exposed to high temperatures as it moves between the upper and transition transmission trains.
[0062] See also Figure 4-6 As shown, the adsorption component 201 includes two parallel suction pipes 203 and a collection box 204. The suction pipes 203 are located in the cabinet 01, and the collection box 204 is located in the installation room. A channel 205 for items to pass through is formed between the two suction pipes 203. The two ends of the suction pipes 203 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 206 by welding. The suction pipes 203 are installed in the intelligent washing and drying device through the mounting plate 206. At the same time, a collection chamber 207 is formed in the suction pipes 203 through the setting of the mounting plate 206. A suction head 208 is fixedly installed on the suction pipe 203, and the suction head 208 extends into the channel 205. A plurality of suction holes 209 are provided on the suction head 208. A connecting port 210 connecting the suction holes 209 and the collection chamber 207 is provided on the surface of the suction pipe 203, so that the suction head 208 is connected with the collection chamber 207. A collection pipe 211 connected with the collection chamber 207 is also installed on the suction pipe 203.
[0063] Two connecting pipes 212 are installed on the collecting box 204, and the connecting pipes 212 are connected to the collecting pipe 211 through a pipeline. A negative pressure fan 213 is installed on the top of the collecting box 204. The negative pressure fan 213 is preferably a dust and water suction motor. A connecting hole 214 is provided on the top of the collecting box 204, which is connected to the air suction port of the negative pressure fan 213. The connecting hole 214 is covered with a water retaining baffle, which is fixedly installed on the top of the collecting box 204. The setting of the water retaining baffle can prevent the negative pressure fan 213 from bringing water droplets floating in the air into the negative pressure fan 213 when it is working.
[0064] When the negative pressure fan 213 is working, the air in the cabinet 01 flows along the suction head 208, the collecting pipe 211, the suction pipe 203, and the connecting pipe 212, thereby generating suction at the suction head 208. When an object passes through the suction head 208, the water droplets on the surface of the object enter the collecting chamber 207 through the suction hole 209 and the connecting port 210 in turn under the action of suction. The water droplets are collected into liquid in the collecting chamber 207. The liquid in the collecting chamber 207 flows toward the collecting pipe 211 under the action of negative pressure. The liquid moves through the collecting pipe 211 and the connecting pipe 212 in turn into the collecting box 204, and the liquid is collected in the collecting box 204.
[0065] See also Figure 6 As shown, a collection box 215 is mounted on the top of the collection box 204. The collection box 215 covers the air outlet of the negative pressure fan 213. The collection box 215 is provided with a mounting hole 216 adapted for the negative pressure fan 213. A sealing ring 217 is installed at the mounting hole 216. The sealing ring 217 prevents the air in the collection box 215 from being discharged out of the collection box 215 through the gap between the negative pressure fan 213 and the mounting hole 216. The collection box 215 is provided with an exhaust pipe 218, which is connected to the air intake assembly 202 via a pipe.
[0066] When the negative pressure fan 213 is working, the air drawn away by the negative pressure fan 213 in the intelligent washer-dryer is discharged from the air outlet of the negative pressure fan 213 and collected in the collection box 215. The air in the collection box 215 enters the air intake component 202 from the exhaust pipe 218 and re-enters the cabinet 01 of the intelligent washer-dryer.
[0067] Therefore, during the temperature-raising phase of the intelligent washer-dryer, assuming the initial air temperature in cabinet 01 is T0, negative pressure fan 213 draws air out and returns it through air intake assembly 202. The heating device heats the air to T1, raising the temperature in cabinet 01 to T1. The negative pressure fan then continues to circulate the air, and the heating device heats the air again to T2. This cycle repeats until the target temperature is reached.
[0068] Therefore, no fresh air is involved in the process of multiple circulation heating of the air in cabinet 01. Compared with the heating device in the prior art smart washer-dryer that directly heats the fresh air to the target temperature before delivering it to the smart washer-dryer, the heating efficiency in the smart washer-dryer of this embodiment is faster.
[0069] However, in the constant temperature stage (the smart washer-dryer is in the drying stage), the temperature of the air entering cabinet 01 is slightly different from the temperature inside cabinet 01, and there is no fresh air involved, so the temperature fluctuation inside cabinet 01 is smaller, thereby making the constant temperature of cabinet 01 better.
[0070] See also Figure 1 As shown, when the negative pressure fan 213 in the adsorption component 201 circulates the air of the intelligent washing and drying device, the water droplets adsorbed on the surface of the items are collected into the collection box 204 along with the air, thereby preventing the water droplets from leaving watermarks on the surface of the items during the drying process.
[0071] See also Figure 4 As shown, the air intake assembly 202 includes an air duct 219 mounted at the bottom of the intelligent washer-dryer. The air duct 219 is provided with an air inlet duct 220 and an air outlet 221. The air inlet duct 220 and the exhaust duct 218 are connected by a through-duct. The air outlet 221 is located within the intelligent washer-dryer. A heating element 222 is provided at the air outlet 221. The heating element 222 is preferably a PTC heating element and is fixedly mounted on the air duct 219. After the negative pressure fan 213 in the adsorption assembly 201 draws air from the cabinet 01, the air enters the air duct 219 through the air inlet duct 220. The air in the air duct 219 then enters the cabinet 01 through the air outlet 221. Simultaneously, a heating element 222 is provided at the air outlet 221 to heat the air flowing out of the air outlet 221. Therefore, an additional heating device is not required within the intelligent washer-dryer, making the structure of the intelligent washer-dryer more compact. Compared with the prior art of setting up an independent heating device in the intelligent washing and drying equipment, the production cost of the intelligent washing and drying equipment is lower.
[0072] Therefore, when the present invention is in use, the operator places the items on the placement component, and then the circulating purification device and the circulating conveying device are started. The circulating purification device circulates and heats the air in the cabinet, increases the temperature in the cabinet and preheats the items at the same time. The circulating conveying device carries the items to move in the cabinet, and then the cleaning and disinfection device 300 is started. The circulating conveying device carries the items and first cleans and disinfects the items through the steam component in the cleaning and disinfection device 300, and then circulates the water droplets on the surface of the items through the adsorption component on the circulating purification device. Finally, the circulating conveying device carries the items to be dried above the circulating purification device. Compared with the method of drying and then disinfecting the items or disinfecting and then drying the items in the prior art, the work efficiency of this embodiment is higher. At the same time, during the movement of the items in the cabinet, the items are disinfected twice, namely, disinfected during cleaning and disinfected during drying. Compared with the single disinfection method used in the prior art, the disinfection of this embodiment is more thorough, thereby improving the hygiene standards of the items.
[0073] For example, when this embodiment is applied in the hotel industry, the slippers used in the hotel are processed. The operator places slippers in each placement position on the placement component. First, the circulating conveyor and the circulating purification device 200 are started. The circulating conveyor carries the slippers and moves back and forth in the cabinet 01 of the cabinet 01. At the same time, the circulating purification device 200 heats the cabinet 01, raising the overall temperature of the slippers. Since steam is used for cleaning and disinfection in this embodiment, if the slippers are not preheated, when the steam contacts the slippers, the temperature difference between the steam and the slipper surface is large. The slipper surface will generate thermal stress (local uneven expansion) due to the rapid heating, which may cause the slippers to crack. At the same time, the steam quickly condenses when it contacts the slippers, producing a large amount of liquid water. At this time, the condensed water may form a "water film" on the surface, hindering the subsequent heat transfer of the steam, resulting in incomplete softening of the dirt on the slipper surface, thus affecting the cleaning effect. Therefore, when this embodiment is used, the slippers are preheated by the circulating purification device 200. Narrow the gap between the temperature on the surface of the slippers and the overall temperature of the slippers when the cleaning and disinfection device 300 is working, that is, narrow the gap between the slipper body and the steam. When the steam acts on the slippers, the heat conduction process of the steam is more uniform and the thermal stress is lower, thereby avoiding damage to the slippers during the cleaning and first disinfection process. At the same time, narrowing the temperature difference between the slippers and the steam slows down the condensation rate of the steam and reduces the amount of water droplets produced on the surface of the slippers, so that the steam can continue to contact the dirt on the surface of the slippers in a gaseous form, so that the dirt on the surface of the slippers can be fully and thoroughly cleaned. Then the cleaning and disinfection device 300 is started, and the steam component cleans and disinfects the surface of the slippers. After the cleaning is completed, the slippers pass through the circulating purification device 200 under the action of the circulating conveying device,
[0074] When the water droplets attached to the surface of the slippers pass through the circulation purification device 200, they are discharged into the installation room by the adsorption component inside the circulation purification device 200. When the adsorption component discharges the water droplets on the surface of the slippers, the air inside the cabinet 01 and the water droplets are discharged into the installation room together. The water droplets are collected by the collection box. The air inside the cabinet 01 is heated by the air intake component and then returned to the cabinet 01, raising the temperature inside the cabinet 01, drying the items between the circulation purification device 200 and the cabinet top. At the same time, the ultraviolet lamp 305 performs a secondary disinfection on the slippers. When the cleaning and disinfection device 300 has finished cleaning all the items, the steam generator 302 stops working, the circulation conveyor device continues to move back and forth in the cabinet 01 with the slippers, and the circulation purification device 200 continues to work, stabilizing the temperature inside the cabinet 01 so that the items meet the drying requirements.
[0075] Using the above method, this embodiment can not only clean, disinfect, and dry slippers, but also disinfect and clean other daily necessities such as glasses, towels, and tableware. It can also clean, disinfect, and dry metal products or medical supplies, making the intelligent washing and drying device suitable for various industries.
[0076] This embodiment also provides an intelligent washing and drying control and management system, which is applied to the above-mentioned intelligent washing and drying equipment, and includes a main control module for setting control parameters and recording disinfection information. First, the corresponding control parameters are set to the main control template, and the control parameters include drying temperature, steam temperature, drying time, cleaning time and other parameters. The disinfection information includes other information such as the disinfection time and number of disinfections of the items. The operator sets the corresponding parameters directly on the main control module. Then the main control module controls the start-up of the circulating purification device, the circulating conveying device and the cleaning and disinfection device according to the control parameters. The circulating conveying device carries the items to move in the cabinet. The circulating purification device dries or preheats the circulating items in the cabinet. The cleaning and disinfection device performs cleaning, disinfection and drying on the items and disinfects them again. After the washing and drying of the items is completed, the main control template controls the start-up of the circulating purification device, the circulating conveying device and the cleaning and disinfection device and records the disinfection information.
[0077] The present invention provides an intelligent application terminal that applies the above-mentioned intelligent washing and drying control and management system to input control parameters into the main control module, obtain disinfection information recorded on the main control module, and control the start and stop of the intelligent washing and drying equipment.
