Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of helmet care technology, specifically to a helmet care device and care method. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, cycling has become an increasingly popular sport, and helmets, as essential safety equipment for cycling, play a crucial role in the riding experience due to their comfort and durability. However, due to the diversity of cycling environments, helmets often encounter stones, branches, and other debris, resulting in scratches and damage to the surface. Furthermore, prolonged wear can lead to dirt buildup due to friction, thus affecting the user experience. Therefore, regular helmet care is necessary.
[0003] Currently, there are some existing technologies for helmet care, such as patent publication number CN212962525U. Its main technical means is to insert a protrusion into the helmet's inner cavity, allowing the output end of the care module to deeply care for the helmet's inner cavity. The protrusion is equipped with an air outlet for blowing hot air and a disinfection lamp to care for the helmet's inner cavity. Analysis reveals the following drawbacks of this technical solution: First, it can only care for the helmet's inner cavity, and stains on the helmet's outer surface cannot be cleaned; second, the care lacks a payment unit, making self-service care extremely limited. Therefore, this invention provides a helmet care device and method that can provide comprehensive care for both the helmet's inner cavity and outer surface, enabling self-service care. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a helmet care device and method to solve the technical problem of not being able to provide comprehensive care for the inner cavity and outer surface of the helmet and to achieve self-service care.
[0005] The objective of this invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A helmet care device, comprising:
[0007] The device is equipped with a nursing compartment, a touch screen display, a voice interaction unit, and a payment unit.
[0008] The clamping assembly consists of two symmetrically arranged clamping assemblies, both of which are movably installed inside the nursing chamber. The nursing chamber contains a rotating assembly for driving the clamping assemblies to rotate. The clamping assemblies are connected to a flipping assembly located inside the nursing chamber. When the rotating assembly drives the clamping assemblies to rotate, the flipping assembly drives the helmet to flip back and forth through the clamping assemblies.
[0009] A disinfection unit is installed in the machine body, and its output end is connected to the bottom plate of the nursing chamber. A through hole is provided on the bottom plate of the nursing chamber at the connection position with the output end of the disinfection unit.
[0010] The atomizing unit is installed on the body and its output end is connected to the bottom plate of the nursing chamber. A through hole is provided on the bottom plate of the nursing chamber at the connection position with the output end of the atomizing unit.
[0011] A drying unit is installed in the machine body, and its output end is connected to the bottom plate of the nursing chamber. A through hole is provided on the bottom plate of the nursing chamber at the connection point with the output end of the drying unit; and

[0015] A positioning frame is slidably installed inside the nursing compartment, and a clamping ring is installed on it. The positioning frame is driven to perform linear motion by a drive source, and the mounting end of the drive source is connected to the output end of the rotating component.
[0016] As a further aspect of the present invention: the atomizing unit includes:
[0017] The atomizing delivery port is connected to a high-temperature atomizer and aligned with a through-hole on the bottom plate of the treatment chamber. The high-temperature atomizer is connected to a Y-shaped atomizing tube. Upon initial touch of the touchscreen display, the high-temperature atomizer activates and heats up, subsequently opening the treatment chamber door.
[0018] The outlet of the Y-shaped atomizing pipe is connected to the high-temperature atomizer via the atomizing electromagnetic pump. One inlet of the Y-shaped atomizing pipe is connected to the atomizing liquid solenoid valve, and the other inlet is connected to the cleaning water solenoid valve. Flow meter sensors are installed on both inlets.
[0019] As a further aspect of the present invention: the high-temperature atomizer is connected to the driving source; when the high-temperature atomizer is started, the driving source is started synchronously, so that the two clamping rings expand outward to the clamping position.
[0020] As a further aspect of the present invention: the rotating assembly includes a drive gear and a gear ring meshing with it. The drive gear is rotatably installed inside the nursing compartment and is driven to rotate by an output source. The gear ring is rotatably installed inside the nursing compartment and located outside the helmet placement position. The drive source is fixedly installed on the gear ring, and the output source is connected to the disinfection unit. When the disinfection unit is turned on to perform disinfection, the output source starts and drives the drive gear to rotate.
[0021] As a further aspect of the present invention: the number of the flipping components is two, and the two flipping components are respectively connected to two clamping components, the flipping components comprising:
[0022] A rack is slidably mounted on a positioning frame and connected to the positioning frame via an elastic element. A sphere is fixedly provided at the top and bottom of the rack, and the two spheres are symmetrically arranged.
[0023] A number of wedge-shaped blocks are fixed on the inner wall of the nursing chamber, and the positions of the wedge-shaped blocks interfere with the movement path of the sphere; when the sphere at the top of the rack rotates to contact the wedge-shaped block, the sphere continues to rotate and descends along the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block; when the sphere at the bottom of the rack rotates to contact the wedge-shaped block, the sphere continues to rotate and rises along the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block; and
[0024] A transmission gear is rotatably mounted on a positioning frame and meshes with a rack. The transmission gear is connected to a pulley via a belt.
[0025] As a further aspect of the invention: when the ball at the top of the rack of one clamping assembly contacts a wedge block, the ball at the bottom of the rack of another clamping assembly contacts another wedge block.
[0026] A helmet care method, applied to a helmet care device as described above, the method comprising the following steps:
[0027] Step S1: Touch and light up the touch screen for the first time. At this time, the atomizing unit starts heating the atomizer, and at the same time, the clamping end of the clamping component moves to the clamping position.
[0028] Step S2: Tap the touchscreen display or select the cleaning type and payment type via voice interaction unit;
[0029] Step S3: Complete the payment through the payment unit;
[0030] Step S4: After payment is completed, the door of the nursing pod will open;
[0031] Step S5: Place the helmet between the two clamping components inside the care chamber, and clamp the two sides of the outer surface of the helmet with the two clamping components, and then close the door of the care chamber;
[0032] Step S6: The door lock inspection module on the nursing compartment performs three door lock checks. If the result of the three consecutive checks is "locked", it is determined that the door of the nursing compartment is locked.
[0033] Step S7: After the door of the nursing compartment is locked, the disinfection unit is opened to disinfect the helmet. At the same time, the rotating component is started to drive the clamping component to rotate. During the rotation of the clamping component, the flipping component drives the helmet to flip back and forth through the clamping component.
[0034] Step S8: After the disinfection process is completed, the atomization heating inspection module performs a heating inspection on the atomizer. If the inspection result is that the heating is not completed, wait 60 seconds and check again. If the inspection result is that the heating is not completed, the door of the nursing chamber will be opened and the payment unit will perform a refund operation.
[0035] Step S9: If the heating check or re-check indicates that heating is complete, the atomization unit will perform atomization processing.
[0036] Step S10: After the atomization process is completed, the drying unit performs the drying process;
[0037] Step S11: After the drying process is completed, the negative ion purification unit is turned on to perform negative ion purification.
[0038] Step S12: After the negative ion purification process is completed, the rotating component drives the clamping component to the clamping position and then stops the machine;
[0039] Step S13: The door of the nursing compartment is opened;
[0040] Step S14: Remove the treated helmet and then close the door of the treatment chamber;
[0041] Step S15: After the touch screen remains untouched for 3 consecutive minutes, the clamping end of the clamping component moves to its initial position, and the device begins its self-cleaning process.
[0042] Step S16: After self-cleaning is completed and the touch screen remains untouched for 5 consecutive minutes, the atomizer heating stops and the device enters standby mode.
[0043] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0044] (1) In this invention, after selecting the cleaning type and payment type by clicking the touch screen or by using the voice interaction unit, the user completes the payment through the payment unit. Then, the door of the care chamber opens, and the helmet is placed between the two clamping components inside the care chamber. The two clamping components clamp the two sides of the outer surface of the helmet. There is a gap between the bottom of the clamped helmet and the bottom plate of the care chamber. Then, the door of the care chamber is closed. After the door of the care chamber is locked, the disinfection unit is turned on to disinfect the helmet. At the same time, the rotating component is started to drive the clamping components to rotate. During the rotation of the clamping components, the flipping component drives the helmet to flip back and forth through the clamping components. After the disinfection is completed, the atomizing unit performs atomization treatment. After the atomization treatment is completed, the drying unit performs drying treatment. After the drying treatment is completed, the negative ion purification unit is turned on to perform negative ion purification treatment. After the negative ion purification treatment is completed, the rotating component stops, and then the door of the care chamber opens. The user takes out the cleaned helmet and then closes the door of the care chamber. In this way, the inner cavity and outer surface of the helmet can be thoroughly cleaned and cared for, avoiding the existence of care dead corners, and self-service vending can be realized, which enhances the practicality of the device.
[0045] (2) In this invention, by turning on the atomizer heating in advance, the atomizer is in a completed state when the customer completes payment and places the helmet. The atomizing electromagnetic pump can be started to atomize. This method can minimize the time loss caused by the atomizer heating, speed up the completion of helmet care, thereby improving the user experience. It can also avoid the energy consumption caused by the high temperature atomizer keeping the atomizer heating working state when there is no order demand.
[0046] (3) In this invention, the helmet can be continuously reciprocated during rotation, and the helmet can be rotated clockwise and counterclockwise to ensure that the outer surface of the helmet can be evenly cared for. Attached Figure Description

[0057] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0058] Please see Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention is a helmet care device, comprising:
[0059] The machine body 1 is equipped with a nursing compartment 2, a touch screen display 3, a voice interaction unit 4, and a payment unit 5;
[0060] Clamping assembly 6, two clamping assemblies 6 are symmetrically arranged and movably installed in nursing chamber 2. A rotating assembly 7 for driving the clamping assembly 6 to rotate is installed in nursing chamber 2. The clamping assembly 6 is connected to a flipping assembly 8 set in nursing chamber 2. When the rotating assembly 7 drives the clamping assembly 6 to rotate, the flipping assembly 8 drives the helmet to flip back and forth through the clamping assembly 6.
[0061] The disinfection unit 9 is installed on the body 1, and its output end is connected to the bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2. The bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2 is provided with a through hole at the connection position between the output end of the disinfection unit 9 and the body 1.
[0062] Atomizing unit 10 is disposed on the body 1, and its output end is connected to the bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2. A through hole is provided on the bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2 at the connection position with the output end of the atomizing unit 10.
[0063] A drying unit 11 is disposed on the machine body 1, and its output end is connected to the bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2. A through hole is provided on the bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2 at the connection point with the output end of the drying unit 11; and
[0064] The negative ion purification unit 12 is installed on the body 1, and its output end is connected to the bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2. The bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2 is provided with a through hole at the connection position between the output end of the negative ion purification unit 12 and the bottom plate of the nursing chamber 2.
[0065] In one embodiment, the payment unit 5 includes a card payment module 501 and a cash payment module 502; the disinfection unit 9 is an ultraviolet disinfection lamp, but other structural components with disinfection functions can also be used, which will not be described in detail here; the drying unit 11 includes an axial flow fan and an infrared heating tube connected to it, but other structural components with drying functions can also be used, which will not be described in detail here; the touch screen 3, voice interaction unit 4, payment unit 5, disinfection unit 9, drying unit 11, and negative ion purification unit 12 are all connected to the controller. The above structures are all prior art, and this application does not improve them. Therefore, it is not necessary to disclose their specific mechanical and circuit structures, and this does not affect the integrity of this application.
[0066] In practical application, after selecting the cleaning type and payment type by clicking the touch screen 3 or through the voice interaction unit 4, payment is completed through the payment unit 5. Then, the door of the care chamber 2 opens, and the helmet is placed between the two clamping components 6 inside the care chamber 2. The two clamping components 6 clamp the two sides of the helmet's outer surface, leaving a gap between the bottom of the clamped helmet and the bottom plate of the care chamber 2. The door of the care chamber 2 is then closed and locked. After this, the disinfection unit 9 is activated to disinfect the helmet. Simultaneously, the rotating component 7 is activated to rotate the clamping components 6. During the rotation of the clamping components 6… The flipping component 8 drives the helmet to flip back and forth via the clamping component 6. After disinfection, the atomizing unit 10 performs atomization. After atomization, the drying unit 11 performs drying. After drying, the negative ion purification unit 12 is activated for negative ion purification. After negative ion purification, the rotating component 7 stops, and then the door of the care chamber 2 opens. The user takes out the treated helmet and then closes the door of the care chamber 2. In this way, both the inner cavity and outer surface of the helmet can be thoroughly cleaned and cared for, avoiding any blind spots in the care process. It also enables self-service vending, enhancing the practicality of the device.
[0067] like Figures 2-5As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the clamping assembly 6 includes:
[0068] Clamping rings 601, two clamping rings 601 are connected by a rotating wheel 602, the rotating wheel 602 abuts against the outer surface of the helmet, the central axis of the rotating wheel 602 is a straight axis, and the two ends of the central axis of the rotating wheel 602 are respectively rotatably connected to the central axes of the two clamping rings 601, the central axis of the rotating wheel 602 is connected to the output end of the flipping assembly 8; and
[0069] The positioning frame 603 is slidably installed in the nursing chamber 2, and the clamping ring 601 is installed on it. The positioning frame 603 is driven to perform linear motion by the drive source 604, and the mounting end of the drive source 604 is connected to the output end of the rotating component 7.
[0070] In one embodiment, the outer surface of the clamping ring 601 is provided with protective sponge, and the central axis of the clamping ring 601 is an arc-shaped axis. One end of the central axis of the clamping ring 601 is rotatably connected to the rotating wheel 602, and the other end is fixedly connected to the positioning frame 603. The driving source 604 can be a hydraulic cylinder, a pneumatic cylinder, or other components that can achieve linear motion. This embodiment does not impose specific limitations on these components.
[0071] In practical application, the drive source 604 drives the clamping ring 601 to translate in order to clamp the outer surface of the helmet. The output end of the rotating component 7 drives the two clamping components 6 to rotate synchronously as a whole. When the rotating component 7 drives the clamping components 6 to rotate, the flipping component 8 drives the helmet to flip back and forth through the clamping components 6. Thus, the helmet can be rotated and flipped back and forth during the cleaning process, which can expand the cleaning area of the helmet and ensure that there are no dead corners on the helmet.
[0072] like Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the atomizing unit 10 includes:
[0073] Atomizing delivery port 1001 is connected to a high-temperature atomizer 1002 and aligned with a through hole on the bottom plate of the care chamber 2. The high-temperature atomizer 1002 is connected to a Y-shaped atomizing tube. When the touch screen 3 is touched for the first time, the high-temperature atomizer 1002 starts heating, and then the door of the care chamber 2 opens.
[0074] The atomizing electromagnetic pump 1003 is used. The outlet of the Y-shaped atomizing pipe is connected to the high-temperature atomizer 1002 through the atomizing electromagnetic pump 1003. One inlet of the Y-shaped atomizing pipe is connected to the atomizing liquid solenoid valve, and the other inlet is connected to the cleaning water solenoid valve. Both inlets are equipped with flow meter sensors.
[0075] In one embodiment, the high-temperature atomizer 1002, atomizing electromagnetic pump 1003, atomizing liquid solenoid valve, cleaning water solenoid valve, and flow meter sensor are all prior art. This application does not improve them. Therefore, it is not necessary to disclose their specific mechanical and circuit structures, and this does not affect the integrity of this application.
[0076] In practical application, when the touch screen 3 is touched for the first time, the device detects potential purchase demand, and the high-temperature atomizer 1002 is activated to heat the atomizer for 100 seconds. By activating the atomizer heating in advance, and after the customer completes payment and places the helmet, the disinfection unit 9 performs disinfection for another 90 seconds, the atomizer is ready. The atomizing electromagnetic pump 1003 can then be activated to perform atomization. This method can minimize the time loss caused by atomizer heating, speed up the helmet care process, improve the user experience, and avoid energy consumption caused by the high-temperature atomizer 1002 continuously maintaining a heating state when there is no order demand. During atomization, the inlet connecting the Y-shaped atomization pipe to the atomizing liquid solenoid valve is open, and the other inlet is closed. The atomizing liquid solenoid valve and its corresponding flow meter sensor are activated to start atomization. When the device starts self-cleaning, the inlet connecting the Y-shaped atomization pipe to the cleaning water solenoid valve is open, and the other inlet is closed. The cleaning water solenoid valve and its corresponding flow meter sensor are activated to clean the atomizing liquid pipe.
[0077] like Figures 2-5 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the high-temperature atomizer 1002 is connected to the driving source 604; when the high-temperature atomizer 1002 is started, the driving source 604 is started synchronously, so that the two clamping rings 601 are expanded to the clamping position.
[0078] In practical application, in this embodiment, while the high-temperature atomizer 1002 is activated to heat the atomizer, the drive source 604 is activated to move the clamping ring 601 to the clamping position (e.g., Figure 3 (as shown in the state) When a helmet is placed between the two clamping rings 601, the outer surface of the helmet can be clamped by the two clamping rings 601; when the device starts the self-cleaning state, the two clamping rings 601 are in contact, and the disinfection unit 9 can disinfect the clamping rings 601 to ensure the cleanliness of the nursing chamber 2.
[0079] like Figures 2-4As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rotating component 7 includes a drive gear 701 and a gear ring 702 meshing with it. The drive gear 701 is rotatably mounted in the nursing chamber 2 and is driven to rotate by an output source. The gear ring 702 is rotatably mounted in the nursing chamber 2 and is located outside the helmet placement position. The drive source 604 is fixedly mounted on the gear ring 702 and the output source is connected to the disinfection unit 9. When the disinfection unit 9 is turned on to perform disinfection, the output source starts and drives the drive gear 701 to rotate.
[0080] In one embodiment, the output source can be a motor assembly, a gear assembly or a pulley assembly driven by a motor, as long as it can make the drive gear 701 rotate. This embodiment does not impose any specific limitations.
[0081] In practical applications, after the drive source 604 is started, it can drive the drive gear 701 to rotate, and the gear ring 702 will be driven to rotate, so that the two clamping components 6 can be rotated synchronously as a whole.
[0082] like Figures 2-8 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the number of the flipping components 8 is two, and the two flipping components 8 are respectively connected to the two clamping components 6. The flipping component 8 includes:
[0083] A rack 801 is slidably mounted on a positioning frame 603 and is connected to the positioning frame 603 via an elastic element 802. A ball 803 is fixedly provided at the top and bottom of the rack 801, and the two balls 803 are symmetrically arranged.
[0084] A number of wedge-shaped blocks 804 are fixed on the inner wall of the nursing chamber 2, and the position of the wedge-shaped blocks 804 interferes with the movement path of the ball 803; when the ball 803 at the top of the rack 801 rotates to contact the wedge-shaped block 804, the ball 803 continues to rotate and descends along the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block 804; when the ball 803 at the bottom of the rack 801 rotates to contact the wedge-shaped block 804, the ball 803 continues to rotate and rises along the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block 804; and
[0085] The transmission gear 805 is rotatably mounted on the positioning frame 603 and meshes with the rack 801. The transmission gear 805 is connected to the pulley 602 via the belt 806.
[0086] In one embodiment, the elastic element 802 can be a spring, or other elastic components such as silicone pillars or spring sheets can be used instead. No specific limitation is made in this embodiment.
[0087] In practical applications, this embodiment uses... Figure 4Taking the direction shown as an example, when the wedge block 804 is arranged in this manner, the gear ring 702 rotates counterclockwise. When assembling each structure, the orientation of the wedge block 804 and the direction of the output end of the output source are set according to actual needs to avoid the wedge block 804 blocking the rotation path of the clamping assembly 6. During the process of the gear ring 702 rotating and driving the two clamping assemblies 6 to rotate, when the ball 803 at the top of the rack 801 rotates to contact the wedge block 804, as the ball 803 continues to rotate, it descends along the inclined surface of the wedge block 804, and the rack 801 descends synchronously. Figure 8 As shown, when the corresponding transmission gear 805 rotates clockwise, it drives the rotating wheel 602 to rotate clockwise synchronously via the belt 806. The helmet, which is in contact with the rotating wheel 602, can then rotate counterclockwise. During this process, the elastic element 802 deforms. When the ball 803 rotates away from the wedge block 804, the elastic element 802 drives the rack 801 to reset, and the transmission gear 805 reverses direction, simultaneously driving the rotating wheel 602 to reverse direction, thus resetting the helmet. When the ball 803 at the bottom of the rack 801 rotates to contact the wedge block 804, the ball 803 continues to rotate and rises along the inclined surface of the wedge block 804. Similarly, the rack 801 rises synchronously, and the transmission gear 805 rotates counterclockwise, driving the rotating wheel 602 to rotate counterclockwise, causing the helmet to rotate clockwise and then reset. In this way, the helmet can continuously reciprocate during rotation, and the helmet can rotate clockwise and counterclockwise, ensuring that the outer surface of the helmet can be evenly treated.
[0088] like Figure 4 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the ball 803 at the top of the rack 801 of one clamping assembly 6 contacts a wedge block 804, the ball 803 at the bottom of the rack 801 of the other clamping assembly 6 contacts another wedge block 804.
[0089] In practical application, the wedge block 804 contacts either the ball 803 at the top or bottom of the rack 801. By setting the height of the wedge block 804, it can be achieved that the wedge block 804 contacts only one side of the ball 803. The wedge block 804 contacting the ball 803 at the top of the rack 801 and the wedge block 804 contacting the ball 803 at the bottom of the rack 801 have different orientations, specifically as follows: Figure 4 As shown; several wedge-shaped blocks 804 with different orientations, combined with the above method, can enable the two clamping components 6 to flip the helmet together on both sides of the helmet.
[0090] Please see Figures 1-8 As shown, the present invention is a helmet care method, which is applied to the helmet care device described in the above embodiments, and the method includes the following steps:
[0091] Step S1: Touch and light up the touch screen 3 for the first time. At this time, the atomizing unit 10 starts the atomizer heating and the clamping end of the clamping component 6 moves to the clamping position.
[0092] Step S2: Tap the touch screen 3 or select the cleaning type and payment type via the voice interaction unit 4;
[0093] Step S3: Complete the payment through payment unit 5;
[0094] Step S4: After payment is completed, the door of nursing compartment 2 will open;
[0095] Step S5: Place the helmet between the two clamping components 6 inside the nursing compartment 2, and clamp the two sides of the outer surface of the helmet by the two clamping components 6, and then close the door of the nursing compartment 2.
[0096] Step S6: The door lock inspection module on nursing compartment 2 performs three door lock checks. If the result of the three consecutive checks is locked, it is determined that the door of nursing compartment 2 is locked.
[0097] Step S7: After the door of the nursing compartment 2 is locked, the disinfection unit 9 is opened to disinfect the helmet. At the same time, the rotating component 7 is activated to drive the clamping component 6 to rotate. During the rotation of the clamping component 6, the flipping component 8 drives the helmet to flip back and forth through the clamping component 6.
[0098] Step S8: After the disinfection process is completed, the atomization heating inspection module performs a heating inspection on the atomizer. If the inspection result is that the heating is not completed, wait 60 seconds and check again. If the result of the second inspection is that the heating is not completed, the door of the nursing chamber 2 will be opened, and the payment unit 5 will perform a refund operation.
[0099] Step S9: If the heating check or re-check shows that heating has been completed, the atomizing unit 10 performs atomization processing.
[0100] Step S10: After the atomization process is completed, the drying unit 11 performs the drying process;
[0101] Step S11: After the drying process is completed, the negative ion purification unit 12 is turned on to perform negative ion purification.
[0102] Step S12: After the negative ion purification process is completed, the rotating component 7 drives the clamping component 6 to the clamping position and then stops the machine;
[0103] Step S13: The door of nursing compartment 2 is opened;
[0104] Step S14: Remove the treated helmet, then close the door of treatment chamber 2;
[0105] Step S15: After the touch screen 3 has been untouched for 3 consecutive minutes, the clamping end of the clamping component 6 moves to the initial position, and the device begins its self-cleaning state.
[0106] Step S16: After self-cleaning is completed and the touch screen 3 remains untouched for 5 consecutive minutes, the atomizer heating stops and the device enters standby mode.
[0107] In one embodiment, both the door lock inspection module and the atomizing heating inspection module are existing technologies. This application does not improve them. Therefore, it is not necessary to disclose their specific mechanical and circuit structures, and this does not affect the integrity of this application.
[0108] In practical application, the rotating component 7 is connected to the encoder and can stop after rotating a full number of revolutions at the controller output. When the rotating component 7 stops, the clamping component 6 is located at the starting position of the rotation, i.e., the clamping position of the helmet. When the clamping end of the clamping component 6 is in the initial position, the two clamping ends are in contact and within the disinfection range of the disinfection unit 9. After the device starts the self-cleaning state, the disinfection unit 9 is turned on to disinfect the nursing chamber 2, and at the same time, it can disinfect and clean the clamping end of the clamping component 6. At this time, the inlet connected to the cleaning water solenoid valve of the Y-shaped atomizing pipe is opened, and the other inlet is closed. The cleaning water solenoid valve and its corresponding flow meter sensor are turned on to clean the atomizing liquid pipe. After the device enters the standby state, the disinfection unit 9, atomizing unit 10, drying unit 11 and negative ion purification unit 12 are all turned off.
[0109] Working principle of the invention: The above embodiments of the invention provide a helmet care device and method. After selecting the cleaning type and payment type by clicking the touch screen 3 or through the voice interaction unit 4, payment is completed through the payment unit 5. Subsequently, the door of the care chamber 2 opens, and the helmet is placed between the two clamping components 6 inside the care chamber 2. The two clamping components 6 clamp the two sides of the outer surface of the helmet. There is a gap between the bottom of the clamped helmet and the bottom plate of the care chamber 2. Then, the door of the care chamber 2 is closed. After the door of the care chamber 2 is locked, the disinfection unit 9 is activated to disinfect the helmet. At the same time, the rotating component 7 is activated to drive the clamping components 6 to rotate. During the rotation of the clamping component 6, the flipping component 8 drives the helmet to flip back and forth through the clamping component 6. After the disinfection process is completed, the atomizing unit 10 performs atomization treatment. After the atomization treatment is completed, the drying unit 11 performs drying treatment. After the drying treatment is completed, the negative ion purification unit 12 is turned on to perform negative ion purification treatment. After the negative ion purification treatment is completed, the rotating component 7 stops, and then the door of the care chamber 2 opens. The user takes out the treated helmet and then closes the door of the care chamber 2. In this way, the inner cavity and outer surface of the helmet can be thoroughly cleaned and cared for, avoiding any blind spots in the care, and enabling self-service vending, which enhances the practicality of the device.
[0110] The foregoing has provided a detailed description of one embodiment of the present invention, but this description is merely a preferred embodiment and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. All equivalent variations and modifications made within the scope of the claims of this invention should still fall within the patent coverage of this invention.
