Any embodiment described in this application as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments. The following description is given to enable any person skilled in the art to make and use the invention. In the following description, details are listed for the purpose of explanation. It should be understood that one of ordinary skill in the art will recognize that the invention can be practiced without these specific details. In other instances, well-known structures and processes are not described in detail to avoid obscuring the description of the invention with unnecessary detail. Therefore, the present invention is not intended to be limited to the embodiments shown, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and features disclosed herein.

[0045] The embodiments of the present application provide a clothes drying device and a control method, device, and computer-readable storage medium thereof, which are described in detail below.

[0046] A clothes dryer is a common household clothing processing device used to dry wet loads such as clothing. In an embodiment, the clothes dryer may be a clothes dryer or a washer-dryer. The clothes dryer includes a clothes dryer drum, which is used to place the wet load to be dried. The clothes dryer includes a heating and drying component, such as a heat pump drying component, which is used to circulate, heat, and dehumidify the air in the clothes dryer drum under the action of a fan to dry the wet load. The heating and drying component is not the focus of improvement in this application and will not be described in detail here.

[0047] like Figure 1As shown, for noise reduction, a noise reduction sheet 01 is provided on the inner wall surface of the clothes drying drum 02. Covering the inside of the clothes drying drum with the noise reduction sheet can effectively reduce the irregular noise caused by collisions and scrapes between metal parts and the drum wall. However, the surface of the noise reduction sheet and the gap between the sheet and the drum are prone to accumulation of lint from clothes. Long-term use may lead to health hazards and increased maintenance costs, or require manual cleaning by the user. In the embodiment, the noise reduction sheet is a noise reduction magnetic sheet. The arrangement of the noise reduction sheet and the clothes drying drum adopts the structure of the prior art and will not be described in detail here.

[0048] To this end, embodiments of the present application provide a control method for a clothes drying appliance to address the technical issue of lint accumulation on the surface of a noise reduction sheet and in the gap between the sheet and the dryer, creating a hygienic hazard. This control method is implemented in a controller for the clothes drying appliance; that is, the controller is configured to execute the steps of the control method for a clothes drying appliance provided in embodiments of the present application. The controller is signal-connected to the drive assembly of the fan and the dryer, and is configured to issue drive signals to the fan and drive assembly to control their operation.

[0049] like Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a specific flow chart of a control method for a clothes drying device according to an embodiment of the present application; the control method includes:

[0050] S100, obtaining drying process parameters;

[0051] S200, if the drying process parameters trigger the preset conditions, the fan of the drying equipment is controlled to increase the speed and / or the drying drum is controlled to operate according to the motion strategy corresponding to the preset conditions, so as to remove the lint on the gap between the drying drum and the noise reduction plate; wherein, the fan is used to drive the airflow in the drying drum and the heating and drying component to circulate heat exchange.

[0052] In the technical solution of the present application, when the drying device performs a drying operation, it obtains drying process parameters. When the drying process parameters trigger preset conditions, the fan speed of the drying device is controlled to increase and / or the drying drum is controlled to operate according to a motion strategy corresponding to the preset conditions, so as to adjust the operating parameters of the drying device, remove the lint on the gap between the drying drum and the noise reduction plate while maintaining the noise reduction effect, and reduce the accumulation rate of the lint in the gap between the drying drum and the noise reduction plate.

[0053] The purpose of increasing the fan speed of the clothes drying device is to increase wind force, using the strong wind to remove some of the lint that has accumulated in the gap between the clothes drying drum and the noise reduction sheet. Furthermore, controlling the clothes drying drum to operate according to a motion strategy corresponding to the preset conditions is intended to adjust the operating state of the clothes drying drum, break the original accumulation of lint, and make it easier for the wind to remove it. In some embodiments, when the clothes drying drum operates in a preset drying mode, it rotates in forward direction. To break the accumulation of lint, when the drying process parameters trigger the preset conditions, the clothes drying drum can switch from forward rotation to alternating forward and reverse rotation, alternating forward rotation and stop rotation, alternating stop rotation and reverse rotation, reverse rotation, stop rotation, and alternating forward rotation, stop rotation, and reverse rotation.

[0054] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, the preset condition includes a first preset condition; the first preset condition includes: the humidity within the clothes drying drum is less than a humidity threshold and the drying device is running for a longer time in the preset drying mode than a first preset time. In this embodiment, the drying process parameters include the humidity within the clothes drying drum and the time it is running in the preset drying mode. During the preset drying mode, a determination is made in real time or on a preset cycle basis whether the humidity within the clothes drying drum is less than the humidity threshold and the drying device is running for a longer time in the preset drying mode than a first preset time; when this condition is met, the drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition. When the humidity in the dryer drum is less than the humidity threshold, the drum is relatively dry, and the lint is in a flying state due to the dryness, that is, the lint is easily blown away by the wind. In addition, the operation time of the dryer in the preset drying mode is longer than the first preset time because, during the drying process, in the initial drying stage, the moisture in the load has not yet evaporated into the drum, resulting in the humidity in the dryer drum being less than the humidity threshold. This is because there is no lint accumulation between the dryer drum and the noise reduction plate, and thus there is no need to enter the lint removal mode. Therefore, the first preset condition set in the embodiment of the application requires that the humidity in the dryer drum be less than the humidity threshold and that the dryer run in the preset drying mode for longer than the first preset time. The first preset time is at least longer than the duration of the dryer's initial drying stage, so that the humidity in the dryer drum rises above the humidity threshold. In other words, the humidity in the dryer drum must drop from above the humidity threshold to below the humidity threshold before the first preset condition is triggered. The first preset time is set based on the performance parameters of the dryer and the load characteristics.

[0055] like Figure 3 As shown, if the drying process parameter triggers a preset condition, controlling the fan of the drying device to increase the speed and / or controlling the drying drum to operate according to the motion strategy corresponding to the preset condition includes:

[0056] S210, if the drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition, the speed of the fan is controlled to be a first speed and the drying drum is controlled to perform at least two of forward rotation, stop rotation and reverse rotation according to a preset rhythm; wherein, the first speed is greater than the second speed, and the second speed is the operating speed of the fan when the drying equipment performs a preset drying mode.

[0057] In this embodiment, when the drying process parameter triggers the first preset condition, the lint is in a flying state due to drying, and at this time the fan speed is increased from the second speed in the preset drying mode to the first speed to improve the wind effect; and the drying drum is controlled to perform at least two of forward rotation, stop rotation and reverse rotation according to the preset beat; at this time, if Figure 6 As shown, the clothes drying equipment is in strong wind cleaning mode, which improves the lint removal effect by increasing the airflow intensity through the fan and combining the alternating steering and emergency stop mechanism of the clothes drying drum.

[0058] In an embodiment, the clothes drying drum may execute multiple cycles, such as 6 cycles, by rotating forward for 5 seconds, stopping for 2 seconds, and reversing for 3 seconds. For another example, the clothes drying drum may execute multiple cycles, such as 4 cycles, by rotating forward for 5 seconds, stopping for 2 seconds. For another example, the clothes drying drum may execute multiple cycles, such as 5 cycles, by rotating forward for 5 seconds, stopping for 0.5 seconds, and reversing for 5 seconds. For another example, the clothes drying drum may execute multiple cycles, such as 8 cycles, by reversing for 10 seconds and stopping for 2 seconds. The above is only a specific implementation process, in which the clothes drying drum executes at least two of forward rotation, stop rotation, and reversal according to a preset beat, and is specifically set according to the load characteristics in the clothes drying equipment (for example, a load that is prone to generating lint).

[0059] In the above embodiment, the first rotation speed and the second rotation speed are not specifically limited. The first rotation speed is different in different drying modes and different models. The second rotation speed is different in different drying modes and different models.

[0060] As an optional implementation manner of the above embodiment, after controlling the speed of the fan to be the first speed and controlling the drying drum to perform at least two of forward rotation, stop rotation, and reverse rotation according to a preset beat, the control method includes:

[0061] Determining whether the clothes drying device triggers a shutdown condition;

[0062] If not, controlling the clothes drying device to continue to execute the preset drying mode, and determining whether the updated drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition; if so, controlling the speed of the fan to be the first speed and controlling the clothes drying drum to execute at least two of forward rotation, stop rotation, and reverse rotation according to a preset beat; if not, controlling the clothes drying device to continue to execute the preset drying mode;

[0063] If so, the clothes drying device is controlled to operate in an operation mode corresponding to the shutdown condition or to stop operating.

[0064] In an embodiment, after the clothes dryer completes the strong-air cleaning mode, it is determined whether the clothes dryer is in a shutdown condition. This is primarily because, while the clothes dryer is in the strong-air cleaning mode, the humidity within the dryer drum is less than a humidity threshold, and the dryer has been operating in a preset drying mode for longer than a first preset time, indicating that the load is almost dried. If so, the clothes dryer is controlled to operate in the operating mode corresponding to the shutdown condition or to shut down. If not, the clothes dryer is controlled to continue operating in the preset drying mode and determine whether the updated drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition. In this case, if the clothes dryer continues in the preset drying mode, a certain amount of lint will still be generated. By determining whether the updated drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition, it is determined whether the strong-air cleaning mode needs to be further executed. If not, the clothes dryer is controlled to continue operating in the preset drying mode.

[0065] In an embodiment, the shutdown condition may be: the accumulated running time reaches the fifth running time (ie, the real-time drying progress reaches the preset drying progress); the load humidity is lower than the preset humidity.

[0066] Reference Figure 5 As shown, after the clothes drying device completes the strong wind cleaning mode, it is determined whether the drying process parameters of the clothes drying device trigger the shutdown condition. If so, the clothes drying device is controlled to execute the final cleaning mode corresponding to the shutdown condition. If not, it continues to dry according to the preset drying mode, and determines whether the drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition and the shutdown condition. If any one of them is triggered, the clothes drying device is controlled to execute the mode corresponding to the triggered condition.

[0067] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, the preset condition includes a second preset condition, and the second preset condition includes a shutdown condition of the clothes drying device. Figure 4 As shown, if the drying process parameter triggers a preset condition, controlling the fan of the drying device to increase the speed and / or controlling the drying drum to operate according to the motion strategy corresponding to the preset condition includes:

[0068] S220, if the drying process parameters trigger the shutdown condition, the speed of the fan is controlled to be a third speed and the drying drum is controlled to continuously reverse for a second preset time; wherein, the third speed is greater than the second speed, and the second speed is the operating speed of the fan when the drying equipment executes a preset drying mode.

[0069] In this embodiment, when the drying process parameters trigger the shutdown condition, indicating that the load meets the drying requirements, in order to further clean the lint, the fan speed is increased from the second speed to the third speed and the drying drum is continuously reversed for the second preset time to perform a final cleaning of the lint and perform deep purification.

[0070] The second preset time length is set differently in different drying modes and different models. For example, in some embodiments, the second preset time length can be 30 seconds, 1 minute, etc. The third speed is set differently in different drying modes and different models.

[0071] As an optional implementation manner of the above embodiment, the preset condition includes a third preset condition, and the third preset condition includes that the operation time of the drying device in the preset drying mode reaches a third preset time.

[0072] like Figure 5 As shown, if the drying process parameter triggers a preset condition, controlling the fan of the drying device to increase the speed and / or controlling the drying drum to operate according to the motion strategy corresponding to the preset condition includes:

[0073] S231, if the drying process parameter does not trigger the first preset condition, determine whether the drying process parameter triggers the third preset condition;

[0074] S232: If yes, control the fan speed to a fourth speed and control the drying drum to continuously reverse for a fourth preset time period; wherein the fourth speed is greater than the second speed, and the second speed is the operating speed of the fan when the clothes drying device is in a preset drying mode;

[0075] If not, the clothes drying device is controlled to continue to operate in the preset drying mode.

[0076] In an embodiment, when the clothes drying device is operating in a preset drying mode and the drying process parameters do not trigger the first preset condition, a determination is made as to whether the operating time in the preset drying mode has reached a third preset time. Because lint can accumulate in the gap between the drying drum and the noise reduction plate during operation of the clothes drying device, when the operating time in the preset drying mode reaches the third preset time, the fan speed is increased from the second speed to a fourth speed, and the clothes drying drum is controlled to continuously reverse for the fourth preset time to prevent lint from accumulating in the gap between the drying drum and the noise reduction plate. This causes the clothes drying device to enter a preventative cleaning mode.

[0077] In some embodiments, the third preset duration is set to be greater than the first preset duration. That is, during operation, it may take longer for the humidity in the drying drum to fall below the humidity threshold due to a heavy load or high humidity. Therefore, after running for a longer third preset duration, the drying device performs a preventive cleaning mode to prevent lint accumulation, which facilitates the drying device to perform a strong air cleaning mode to blow away the lint when the drying process parameters reach the first preset condition.

[0078] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, after controlling the speed of the fan to a fourth speed and controlling the drying drum to continuously reverse for a fourth preset time, the control method includes:

[0079] Determining whether the clothes drying device triggers a shutdown condition;

[0080] If not, controlling the clothes drying device to continue to execute the preset drying mode, and determining whether the clothes drying device triggers a shutdown condition, and determining whether the drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition and the third preset condition;

[0081] If so, the clothes drying device is controlled to operate in an operation mode corresponding to the shutdown condition or to stop operating.

[0082] Combine Figure 6 As shown, in an embodiment, after executing the preventive cleaning mode, it is determined whether the drying device triggers a shutdown condition. If the shutdown condition is triggered, the drying device is controlled to operate in an operating mode corresponding to the shutdown condition or to stop operating; if not, the drying device is controlled to continue to execute the preset drying mode, and it is determined whether the drying device triggers the shutdown condition, and whether the drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition and the third preset condition, so as to execute the corresponding cleaning mode according to the conditions triggered by the drying parameters.

[0083] As an optional implementation of the above embodiment, controlling the clothes drying device to continue to execute the preset drying mode and determining whether the updated drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition includes:

[0084] The running time is reset to zero, and the re-timed running time of the clothes drying device is obtained.

[0085] In an embodiment, after executing a strong wind cleaning mode or a preventive cleaning mode, the running time is reset to zero to prevent the drying device from entering the strong wind cleaning mode or the preventive cleaning mode all the time. Instead, after entering the strong wind cleaning mode or the preventive cleaning mode each time, the drying device enters the drying mode to continue drying. At this time, when the drying device enters the strong wind cleaning mode or the preventive cleaning mode, the re-timed running time of the drying device is obtained to re-judge whether the drying process parameters trigger the first preset condition or the second preset condition.

[0086] In some embodiments, the third preset time period is set to be greater than the first preset time period. This is mainly because the clothes drying device needs to enter the strong wind cleaning mode; if the third preset time period is less than the first preset time period, the clothes drying device will enter the preventive cleaning mode instead of the strong wind cleaning mode if the re-timed operation time period is less than the third preset time period.

[0087] In some embodiments, the third speed is greater than the first speed, greater than the fourth speed, and greater than the second speed. In some embodiments, the first speed is greater than the third speed, greater than the fourth speed, and greater than the second speed. This is primarily due to the fact that in preventative cleaning mode, the wind speed should not be increased significantly to account for heat exchange with the drying component.

[0088] Combine Figure 6 As shown, in the specific implementation process of a control method for a clothes drying device provided in the embodiment of the present application:

[0089] Start drying, and the clothes drying equipment will operate according to the preset drying mode;

[0090] Determining whether the humidity in the clothes drying drum is less than the humidity and whether the running time is greater than a first preset time;

[0091] When all the conditions are met at the same time, the clothes drying equipment is controlled to enter the strong wind cleaning mode;

[0092] If not, determining whether the running time is greater than a third preset time;

[0093] If so, the clothes drying device is controlled to enter a preventive cleaning mode;

[0094] If not, the clothes drying device is controlled to continue in the preset drying mode;

[0095] When the clothes drying device is running in the preset drying mode, after running in the strong wind cleaning mode, and after running in the preventive cleaning mode, it is also necessary to determine whether the clothes drying device triggers a shutdown condition;

[0096] If not, the clothes drying device continues in the preset drying mode, and determines whether the humidity in the clothes drying drum is less than the humidity and whether the running time is greater than the first preset time and whether the running time is greater than the third preset time and whether the clothes drying device triggers the shutdown condition;

[0097] If so, the clothes drying device enters the final cleaning mode and then ends the drying.

[0098] Based on the above embodiments, the control method of the drying equipment proposed in the embodiments of the present application is a multimodal control method based on humidity-timing collaborative triggering: the humidity in the drum is monitored in real time by the original humidity sensor of the drying equipment, the fan speed and the dryer drum movement strategy are dynamically adjusted in combination with the operating time, and conventional drying and final cleaning are performed in stages. The characteristics of lint flying easily in the drying stage and the inertial flushing effect of emergency stop are utilized to achieve effective cleaning of lint and prevention of lint accumulation in gaps without adding new hardware, and the additional energy consumption is low, while maintaining the noise reduction effect of the noise reduction sheet.
