[0053] When the above technical solution is adopted, the present invention adjusts the air flow of the aromatherapy device by controlling the angle of the baffle, which is conducive to adjusting the volatilization speed of the aromatherapy. The larger the opening angle of the baffle, the greater the air flow, the greater the volatilization speed and amount of the aromatherapy.

[0054] Preferably, 10°≤α1<30°, 30°≤α2<50°, 50°≤α3≤70°, where α1 is the first angle, α2 is the second angle, and α3 is the third angle. For example, α1 is 20°, α2 is 40°, and α3 is 60°.

[0055] In this preferred embodiment, the method for controlling a clothing care machine provided by the present invention further includes: controlling the operation of a heating element according to the aroma enhancement level to maintain the temperature within the aromatherapy chamber within a target temperature range. Controlling the operation of the heating element according to the aroma enhancement level can maintain the volatilization rate of the aroma within an appropriate range. When the temperature within the aromatherapy chamber is higher than the target temperature, the heating element stops operating. When the temperature within the aromatherapy chamber is lower than the target temperature, the heating element starts heating again. This facilitates achieving rapid aroma enhancement in a short period of time, improves aroma enhancement efficiency, and prevents overly strong aroma.

[0056] In this preferred embodiment, the step of "controlling the operation of the heating element according to the fragrance enhancement gear so that the temperature in the aromatherapy room is maintained within the target temperature range" specifically includes: when the fragrance enhancement gear is the light fragrance gear, the target temperature is the first temperature. When the fragrance enhancement gear is the moderate fragrance gear, the target temperature is the second temperature. When the fragrance enhancement gear is the strong fragrance gear, the target temperature is the third temperature. Among them, the first temperature, the second temperature and the third temperature increase in sequence. In this way, the volatilization rate of the aromatherapy can be kept within an appropriate range, the effect of rapid fragrance enhancement in a short time can be achieved, the fragrance enhancement efficiency can be improved, and the fragrance can be avoided from being too strong.

[0057] Preferably, 40°≤t1<60°, 60°≤t2<75°, 75°≤t3≤90°, wherein t1 is a first angle, t2 is a second angle, and t3 is a third angle. For example, t1 is 50°, t2 is 70°, and t3 is 80°.

[0058] Figure 7 This is another step flow chart of the method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, combined with Figure 7 As shown, in this preferred embodiment, there are multiple aroma chambers and baffles, and the multiple aroma chambers can be independent of each other or interconnected. Before determining the fragrance enhancement gear of the clothing care machine, the control method also includes:

[0059] S30: Determine the aromatherapy mode of the aromatherapy device. The aromatherapy mode of the aromatherapy device can be selected by the user through a display screen of the clothing care machine or a mobile phone software, or can be a preset aromatherapy mode of the clothing care machine.

[0060] S40, according to the aromatherapy mode, controlling the damper of the corresponding aromatherapy chamber to open so that the corresponding aromatherapy chamber is connected to the air supply duct.

[0061] By adopting the above technical solution, the method for controlling a clothing care machine provided by the present invention can release multiple single-type aromas by making the aroma chambers of the aroma device independent of each other, and can release multiple mixed aromas by connecting multiple aroma chambers. In this way, the present invention can provide multiple fragrance enhancement methods, such as single-type aromas and mixed aromas, to meet users' personalized aromatherapy needs and enhance their user experience.

[0062] In this preferred embodiment, the step of "controlling the opening of the corresponding aroma chamber's damper according to the aromatherapy mode" specifically includes: if the aromatherapy mode includes a single type of aromatherapy, controlling the opening of the damper of the first target aromatherapy chamber corresponding to the single type of aromatherapy. If the aromatherapy mode includes multiple types of aromatherapy, controlling the opening of the dampers of multiple second target aromatherapy chambers corresponding to the multiple types of aromatherapy. When employing the above technical solution, the control method of the clothing care machine provided by the present invention can provide multiple fragrance enhancement methods, such as single-type fragrance and mixed fragrance, to meet the user's personalized aromatherapy needs and enhance the user experience.

[0063] For example, if the currently selected aromatherapy mode is apple fragrance, the first target aromatherapy chamber corresponding to the apple fragrance is controlled to release apple fragrance into the air supply duct. Alternatively, if the currently selected aromatherapy mode is flower fragrance, the first target aromatherapy chamber corresponding to the flower fragrance is controlled to release flower fragrance into the air supply duct.

[0064] For example, if the currently selected aromatherapy mode is a mixed aroma of apple and peach, the two second target aromatherapy chambers corresponding to the apple and peach aromas will be controlled to release the mixed aroma into the air supply duct. Alternatively, if the currently selected aromatherapy mode is a mixed aroma of apple, peach, and pineapple, the three second target aromatherapy chambers corresponding to the apple, peach, and pineapple aromas will be controlled to release the mixed aroma into the air supply duct. The first target aromatherapy chamber and the second target aromatherapy chamber are the aforementioned aromatherapy chambers.

[0065] In this preferred embodiment, the step of "opening the baffle of the first target aroma chamber" specifically includes controlling the baffle of the first target aroma chamber to rotate to open the air outlet of the first target aroma chamber. By opening the air outlet of the first target aroma chamber, the first target aroma chamber is connected to the air supply duct 101, releasing the fragrance in the first target aroma chamber.

[0066] In this preferred embodiment, while the baffle of the first target aroma chamber is opened, the method further includes: controlling the heating element in the first target aroma chamber to heat up, thereby accelerating the release of aroma from the first target aroma chamber and increasing the concentration and speed of the aroma.

[0068] By controlling the connection of multiple second-target aroma chambers, the aroma in the multiple second-target aroma chambers is easily mixed. Heating the heating elements in the multiple second-target aroma chambers helps accelerate the volatilization of the aroma and the mixing of the gas. When the above technical solution is adopted, the multiple second-target aroma chambers are first connected, and then the heating elements are used to accelerate the volatilization of the aroma, which helps to evenly mix the aroma in the aromatherapy box. When the temperature in the second-target aroma chamber is greater than or equal to the preset temperature, controlling the multiple second-target aroma chambers to connect with the air supply duct can ensure the concentration of the aroma and the aroma enhancement effect.

[0069] In this preferred embodiment, the step of "controlling the connection between the plurality of second target aroma chambers" specifically includes controlling the opening of through holes between adjacent second target aroma chambers to connect the plurality of second target aroma chambers.
