The directional terms in this application, such as "up, down, left, right, front, back", etc., are all conventional directional cognitions of the nursing machine in the conventional assembly and placement state. Figure 1 coordinate system.

[0034] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with embodiments.

[0035] Example 1

[0036] In order to solve the problem of poor drying effect of the nursing machine in the prior art, this embodiment proposes an intelligent drying nursing machine, as shown in the attached Figure 1-4 As shown, the intelligent drying and nursing machine includes:

[0037] A housing assembly 1 is used to accommodate the entire machine structure. A care cavity 103 is provided inside the housing assembly 1 and can accommodate clothing.

[0038] A vertical rail assembly is provided inside the nursing cavity 103;

[0039] A horizontal rail assembly capable of sliding along the vertical rail assembly;

[0040] The arm assembly 5 is capable of sliding along the front-to-back direction of the rail assembly, and a medium outlet is provided on the arm assembly 5, and the medium outlet is used to output the drying medium to the clothes to be dried;

[0041] The medium output port of the arm assembly 5 can output high-temperature gas or steam of different temperatures and states to the clothes to be dried.

[0042] This embodiment discloses an intelligent drying and care machine, including a shell component 1, a track component and an arm component 5 are arranged in the care cavity 103 inside the shell component 1, and the arm component 5 can slide on the track component in any group or combination of forward and backward, left and right, and up and down directions. A medium output port is provided on the arm component 5, and the medium output port is used to output drying medium to the clothes to be dried. The medium output port of the arm component 5 can output high-temperature gas or steam of different temperatures and states to the clothes to be dried.

[0043] The working method of the intelligent drying and nursing machine described in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0044] S1: Identify clothing characteristics and thickness distribution;

[0045] S2: Develop differentiated drying parameters based on characteristics and thickness distribution;

[0046] S3: The nursing machine adjusts at least one of the drying temperature, the moving drying speed, and the dwell time according to the parameters to perform the drying operation;

[0047] S4: Detect and determine whether drying is done. If so, proceed to S5; if not, return to S3.

[0048] S5: Drying is completed.

[0049] The intelligent drying care machine described in this embodiment understands the specific conditions of each piece of clothing, such as material, thickness, etc., through identification of clothing, including analysis of characteristics and thickness distribution. According to the characteristics and thickness distribution of the clothing, the intelligent drying care machine can formulate differentiated drying parameters, including drying temperature, mobile drying speed, residence time, etc., to achieve personalized drying care. According to the formulated drying parameters, the intelligent drying care machine can automatically adjust parameters such as drying temperature, mobile drying speed, residence time, etc. to achieve precise drying of clothing. During the drying process, the intelligent drying care machine will perform real-time monitoring to detect the drying degree of the clothing. If the preset drying standard has been reached, it will proceed to the next step, otherwise it will continue to adjust the drying parameters.

[0050] The intelligent drying and care machine described in this embodiment is combined with an arm component 5 on the track component that can output drying medium to the clothes to be dried, and cooperates with the drying medium output by the boiler or fan to perform close and efficient drying and care for clothes. A drying program including parameters such as drying temperature, moving drying speed, and residence time is formulated according to the characteristics and thickness distribution of the clothes. Through the flexibility of automation and precise positioning drying, it can avoid over-drying that may occur in traditional drying methods, protect the fabric of clothes, extend the service life of clothes, achieve synchronous drying of clothes, and improve the care effect and user experience.

[0051] The intelligent drying care machine described in this embodiment realizes efficient and personalized drying care for clothes by identifying clothing characteristics, formulating differentiated drying parameters, automatically adjusting drying operations, and detecting the degree of drying in real time, etc., combined with the flexible movement of the arm component 5 and the medium output, thereby improving drying efficiency, protecting clothing fabrics, and enhancing user experience.

[0052] As a preferred example of the present application, in step S1, an image recognition device or infrared device is used to identify clothing features and thickness distribution information. As a preferred example of the present application, the image recognition device or infrared device can be installed inside the intelligent drying and nursing machine, or an external terminal can be used. The scheme for identifying clothing features and thickness distribution information by an image recognition device or infrared device has been described in patents or other prior art disclosed in the early stages of the application and will not be repeated here.

[0053] By using an image recognition device or infrared device to identify clothing characteristics and thickness distribution information, automatic recognition of clothing characteristics and thickness distribution information is achieved, eliminating the need for users to manually input clothing characteristics and thickness information, reducing user operations and improving the automation level of the intelligent drying and nursing machine. At the same time, placing the recognition device inside the intelligent drying and nursing machine can more accurately obtain clothing characteristics and thickness information, avoiding the influence of external environmental factors on the recognition results, and improving the accuracy and reliability of recognition. The use of an external terminal allows users to identify clothing characteristics and thickness information through devices such as mobile phones and tablets. This can increase the flexibility and operability of the device and meet the needs of different users.

[0054] Wherein, step S1 further includes: determining the outer contour of the clothing according to the thickness distribution of the clothing; the outer contour of the clothing at least includes the outer contour in the thickness direction of the clothing.

[0055] As a preferred example of the present application, in step S2, differentiated drying parameters are formulated according to clothing characteristics and thickness distribution, including formulating any one or a combination of parameters such as the drying path of the arm component 5, drying temperature, moving speed, dwell time, and the distance between the arm component 5 and the clothing.

[0056] Preferably, step S2 includes determining the distance between the drying path (or running trajectory) of the arm assembly 5 during the drying process and the outer contour of the clothing based on clothing characteristics (e.g., clothing material) and clothing contours. Determining the optimal drying distance based on clothing characteristics and clothing contours not only prevents overheating and damage to the fabric caused by the arm assembly 5 being too close to the clothing, but also helps shorten drying time and improve drying efficiency, avoiding slow drying speeds caused by excessive distances.

[0057] The differentiated drying parameters defined by this setting can achieve personalized care, improve drying efficiency, avoid over-drying, and enhance user experience, thereby achieving the goal of optimizing the drying effect.

[0058] As a preferred example of the present application, a dryness sensor is provided on the arm assembly 5. In step S4, the dryness sensor is used to detect whether the clothes are dried. As a preferred example of the present application, the dryness sensor is an infrared spectrometer. By providing a dryness sensor on the arm assembly 5, accurate and real-time detection of the drying status of the clothes can be achieved. Once it is detected that the clothes have been dried, it can be immediately fed back to the intelligent drying care machine to trigger the operation of ending the drying, thereby avoiding the problem of over-drying and protecting the quality of the clothes. Through the real-time feedback of the dryness sensor, the user can be promptly notified that the clothes have been dried, thereby improving the user experience and increasing the user-friendliness of the product.

[0059] As a preferred example of the present application, the track assembly includes a horizontal rail assembly and a vertical rail assembly, at least one vertical rail assembly is provided, and a driving device is provided on one side of the height direction of the vertical rail assembly, and the driving device is connected to the horizontal rail assembly through a transmission mechanism, so that it slides up and down on the vertical rail assembly.

[0060] In the example of this embodiment, the transverse rail components are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the vertical rail components, a transverse rail component is arranged on each of the vertical rail components, and a power component is arranged on one side of the transverse rail component.

[0061] By setting the horizontal rail assembly and the vertical rail assembly in a one-to-one correspondence, and setting a horizontal rail assembly on each vertical rail assembly, and setting a power assembly on one side of the horizontal rail assembly, it is possible to achieve smooth sliding, flexible adaptation, space saving and improved ease of use, thereby optimizing the design and performance of the intelligent drying and care machine.

[0062] As a preferred example of the present application, at least one side of the arm assembly 5 is slidably connected to the cross-rail assembly and realizes forward and backward movement under the action of the power assembly. In the example of this embodiment, the arm assembly 5 can be provided with one, two, or more arm assemblies 5 on the same cross-rail assembly, and a piece of clothing is provided on at least one side of the arm assembly 5 in the forward and backward direction.

[0063] The intelligent drying and care machine described in this embodiment has a piece of clothing hung between every two adjacent arm components 5. It can be used to dry multiple pieces of clothing at the same time, and can also be used to dry a single piece of clothing, making the device more integrated, saving internal space, and improving drying efficiency.

[0064] As a preferred example of the present application, two arm assemblies 5 are arranged inside the intelligent drying and care machine. The two arm assemblies 5 slide forward and backward on the horizontal rail assembly, and the horizontal rail assembly slides up and down on the vertical rail assembly. The clothes are hung between the two arm assemblies 5 through a hanging device.

[0065] An image recognition device is installed within the drying and care machine to identify the position and drying status of clothing. Based on the information captured by the image recognition device, the arm assembly 5 automatically executes the drying process according to customized drying parameters. This setting also allows the captured clothing image information to be recorded to form historical data. This allows users to review the results of previous care processes at any time and compare the status of clothing at different time points, thereby better understanding the care of clothing, providing a reference for future care, and providing data support for the establishment of a future personal clothing management ecosystem.

[0066] As a preferred example of the present application, the arm assembly 5 is integrated with a medium output port for outputting high-temperature gas or steam of different temperatures and states for the clothes to be dried. Through this arrangement, the clothes can select high-temperature gas or steam of different temperatures and states through the movable arm assembly 5 as needed at different positions. In the example of this embodiment, the medium output port is divided into a steam medium port and a high-temperature air port on the arm assembly 5 according to function, and a part of the medium output ports can also be shared, and then the high-temperature air port can also be set as a medium output port of different temperatures. As a preferred example of the present application, the medium output port is distributed along the length direction of the arm assembly 5 as a whole, and the medium output port is connected to the steam boiler and / or the fan.

[0067] This setting integrates multiple functionally partitioned media output ports on the arm component 5, and high-temperature gas or steam of different temperatures and states can be selected for care. It has the effects of personalized care, flexible adaptability, versatility and improved care efficiency, and optimizes the care capabilities and usage experience of the smart drying care machine.

[0068] In the intelligent drying and nursing machine described in this embodiment, the arm assembly 5 is driven by the automation module to move in at least one of the up-down, left-right, and front-back directions, thereby being able to move the arm assembly 5 and its medium output port to any area of ​​the clothing and to form an optimal drying distance with the clothing. The medium output by the boiler or fan provides close care for the clothing, thereby achieving the purpose of efficient drying. The flexibility of automation allows for precise positioning of drying based on the real-time drying status of the clothing, thereby avoiding over-drying in traditional drying methods and protecting the fabric of the clothing. Accordingly, the intelligent drying and nursing machine described in this embodiment can dry different areas of the clothing more evenly, without the occurrence of insufficient or excessive drying.

[0069] Example 2

[0070] Since wet clothes to be dried will inevitably stick together and pile up when hung, it is easy to cause a decrease in drying efficiency and affect the uniformity of drying.

[0071] To this end, this embodiment further improves the intelligent drying and care machine based on Example 1.

[0072] As attached Figure 5-11 As shown, the intelligent drying and care machine includes a clamping and flattening component 3, which can slide on the track component in any group or combination of forward and backward, left and right, up and down directions, and is used to clamp and flatten the clothes to be dried in the care cavity 103; the clamping and flattening component 3 and the arm component 5 move independently of each other.

[0073] In this embodiment, while the arm assembly 5 provides a drying function for clothes, an additional clamping and flattening assembly 3 that is independent of the arm assembly 5 is provided to clamp and flatten the clothes, so as to eliminate the adhesion and stacking of fabrics in the clothes, thereby ensuring that the clothes to be dried are dried by the arm assembly 5 while remaining flat, which can effectively improve the drying efficiency and ensure drying uniformity.

[0074] Specifically, during use, the clamping and flattening assembly 3 first moves from top to bottom or bottom to top to clamp and flatten the clothes to be dried in the care cavity 103, ensuring that the clothes can be fully unfolded and kept flat during the drying process. Once the clothes to be dried are clamped and flattened, the arm assembly 5 begins to dry the clothes. In this embodiment, the operation of the clamping and flattening assembly 3 effectively flattens the clothes to be dried, ensuring that the drying effect can be maximized. After the clothes are flattened, the arm assembly 5 dries the clothes, which can be dried more evenly, ensuring the consistency and integrity of the drying effect.

[0075] This embodiment combines the clamping and flattening component 3 and the arm component 5 to ensure that the clothes to be dried are fully unfolded and kept flat, and achieves effects such as drying clothes and removing wrinkles, providing users with an efficient and convenient clothes drying experience.

[0076] Preferably, the clamping and flattening assembly 3 is arranged below the arm assembly 5. This arrangement avoids spatial interference between the clamping and flattening assembly 3 and the arm assembly 5. The entire garment is first flattened by the clamping and flattening assembly 3, and the hem of the garment is finally clamped and tensioned, ensuring that the garment can always be kept in the optimal flattened state during the drying process, thereby improving the drying effect, saving space, and facilitating operation.

[0077] A track assembly is provided within the care cavity 103. The arm assembly 5 and the clamping and flattening assembly 3 each have a corresponding drive device to ensure independent movement. For ease of description, the drive device corresponding to the arm assembly 5 is referred to as the first drive device 8, and the drive device corresponding to the clamping and flattening assembly 3 is referred to as the second drive device 9.

[0078] The arm assembly 5 can slide on the track assembly under the action of the first driving device 8; the clamping and flattening assembly 3 can slide up and down on the track assembly under the action of the second driving device 9.

[0079] As a preferred example of the present application, the track assembly includes a first guide rail assembly 6 and a second guide rail assembly 7. The arm assembly 5 can slide up and down on the first guide rail assembly 6 under the action of the first drive device 8, and the clamping and flattening assembly 3 can slide up and down on the second guide rail assembly 7 under the action of the second drive device 9.

[0080] Through the setting of the guide rail assembly, the arm assembly 5 and the clamping and flattening assembly 3 can slide up and down on the corresponding guide rails, thereby achieving precise positioning of the clothes to be dried, ensuring that the clamping and flattening assembly 3 accurately and stably clamps the clothes, and the arm assembly 5 can provide accurate and stable drying, thereby improving the drying effect. At the same time, the arm assembly 5 and the clamping and flattening assembly 3 can move flexibly in the care cavity 103 to adapt to clothes to be dried of different sizes and shapes, and can achieve precise positioning, flexibility, convenient operation and space saving, thereby improving the overall performance and usage experience of the intelligent drying care machine.

[0081] As a preferred example of the present application, the forward projection position of the clamping and flattening component 3 in the care cavity 103 is always lower than the forward projection position of the arm component 5 in the care cavity 103 .

[0082] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, during the drying process, the clothes are first clamped and flattened, and then dried, thereby avoiding deformation or wrinkles caused by the unevenness of the clothes during the drying process, ensuring the appearance and quality of the clothes, and ensuring that the clothes are fully unfolded and kept flat before drying, thereby improving the drying effect, optimizing the operation process, and providing users with a better clothing care experience.

[0083] As a preferred example of the present application, the first guide rail assembly 6 and the second guide rail assembly 7 are arranged in parallel, or the first guide rail assembly 6 and the second guide rail assembly 7 are arranged in a mutually inclusive manner. For example, the second guide rail assembly 7 is arranged inside the first guide rail assembly 6.

[0084] This setting discloses the setting position status of the first guide rail assembly 6 and the second guide rail assembly 7 in the two track assemblies, which can enhance stability, optimize space utilization, simplify structure and improve operational convenience, thereby ensuring the appearance and quality of clothing.

[0085] As a preferred example of the present application, the clamping and flattening assembly 3 includes at least one flattening plate assembly 31 and a horizontal sliding assembly 32. The flattening plate assembly 31 can slide horizontally on the horizontal sliding assembly 32, such as sliding forward and backward or left and right on a certain horizontal plane.

[0086] Through the above-mentioned setting, the spreading plate assembly 31 can slide horizontally on the horizontal sliding assembly 32, and the sliding direction of the spreading plate assembly 31 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the clamping and flattening assembly 3 on the guide rail assembly, which can increase the multi-dimensional adjustment capability, improve flexibility, improve the care effect, and simplify the operation process.

[0087] Preferably, two spreading plate assemblies 31 are provided on the horizontal sliding assembly 32, and the two spreading plate assemblies 31 are respectively provided on opposite sides of the clothes to be dried. When in use, the spreading plate assemblies 31 are horizontally slid on the horizontal sliding assembly 32 to move closer to or away from the clothes to be dried, thereby clamping the clothes.

[0088] As a preferred example of the present application, the flattening plate assembly 31 includes a flattening motor 301 and a flattening mechanism 302. Under the action of the flattening motor 301, the flattening mechanism 302 can drive the clothes to be dried to be flattened in the up and down directions and / or left and right directions.

[0089] As an example of the present application, the flattening plate assembly 31 includes a central positioning device, which is used to clamp the midline of the clothes to be dried. Two flattening devices are provided on opposite sides of the central positioning device. The two flattening devices can be driven by a flattening drive device and move toward the sides of the flattening plate assembly 31 to flatten the clothes to be dried. The clamping and flattening assembly 3 with a flattening function described in the present application provides a central positioning device at the center of the flattening plate assembly to clamp the midline of the clothes to be dried, ensuring that the clothes maintain midline symmetry during the flattening process. Furthermore, the two flattening devices on the left and right sides of the central positioning device can expand the clothes to the left and right sides of the midline of the clothes to be dried, respectively, so that the two sides of the clothes are evenly spread out, wrinkles are removed, and the entire clothes are flatter.

[0090] The above setting can provide more precise clothing positioning and flattening functions. The setting in which the intermediate positioning device and the flattening device work together can better handle different types of clothing, ensure that they can remain flat during the drying process, and provide better drying effects.

[0091] As a preferred example of the present application, the intermediate positioning device is a strip-shaped elastic device disposed on the side of the flat plate assembly 31 close to the clothing. As a preferred example of the present application, at least one strip-shaped elastic device is disposed on each of the flat plate assemblies 31 on both sides of the clothing. During use, the intermediate positioning device is disposed on the front and rear opposite sides of the clothing, and the clothing is clamped and positioned in the middle position by the protruding strip-shaped elastic structures symmetrically arranged in the front-to-back direction, preventing uneven force from pulling the clothing to one side during the movement of the flattening device, thereby compromising the clothing care effect. Due to the structural limitations of the intermediate positioning device, the intermediate positioning device plays the role of clamping and positioning the clothing, ensuring that the clothing remains in the correct position throughout the entire treatment process.

[0092] As a preferred example of the present application, the flattening device is a continuously arranged belt device, or the flattening device is a symmetrically arranged flattening protrusion, or the two flattening devices are counter-rotating spiral devices. The flattening device using a continuously arranged belt device allows the flattening device to be tightly attached to the clothing and provide a uniform flattening force, which helps to ensure that the clothing does not generate uneven tension during the flattening process, thereby allowing the clothing to be evenly unfolded; the flattening device using a series of symmetrically arranged protrusions can ensure that the clothing is evenly flattened to the left and right sides, helping to prevent the clothing from tilting or being uneven during flattening; the flattening device using a directional spiral device is used to provide symmetrical flattening force, ensuring that the clothing remains even during flattening, and to provide flattening force to the clothing when the clothing is flattened symmetrically to the left and right sides.

[0093] By means of the above-mentioned flattening device, it is ensured that the clothes remain flat and even during the flattening process, so that the arm assembly 5 can dry the clothes more evenly, ensuring the consistency and integrity of the drying effect.

[0094] As a preferred example of the present application, the flattening device is arranged in an inclined shape along the side close to the intermediate positioning device and away from the intermediate positioning device. The length of the flattening device close to the intermediate positioning device and the distance from the clothing is greater than the length of the flattening device away from the intermediate positioning device and the distance from the clothing. The flattening device forms an angle α with the plane where the clothing is located, and the value range of α is 3°~10°.

[0095] This setting controls the direction and strength of the flattening force by tilting the flattening device, thereby applying different flattening forces to different parts as needed to achieve more precise flattening, which helps to provide additional flattening effects in specific areas of the clothes, especially in areas with more stubborn wrinkles, ensuring that the wrinkles in these areas are properly dealt with, thereby improving the drying effect.

[0096] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the flattening plate assembly further includes two sleeve flattening devices capable of clamping and flattening the sleeves. The sleeve flattening devices are located on a side of the flattening device away from the intermediate positioning device and are symmetrically arranged relative to the intermediate positioning device. This arrangement ensures that the sleeves are properly flattened and tensioned throughout the entire processing process, thereby resolving the problem of wrinkles easily forming on the sleeves of clothing.

[0097] By setting up the sleeve flattening device, the clamping and flattening component 3 can process the clothes more comprehensively, including the corresponding clamping and flattening of the main part of the clothes and the sleeves, thereby improving the drying effect and the overall appearance of the clothes, ensuring that the entire clothes with sleeves can be properly flattened and tensioned during the processing process, making the clothes look neater and smoother.

[0098] As a preferred example of the present application, the first driving device 8 drives the arm assembly 5 to move up and down on the first guide rail assembly 6 through the first transmission device, and the second driving device 9 clamps the flattening assembly 3 through the second transmission device to move up and down on the second guide rail assembly 7.
