[0044] Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Detailed Implementation

[0045] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this disclosure, the solutions disclosed herein will be further described below. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.

[0046] Numerous specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this disclosure, but this disclosure may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; obviously, the embodiments in the specification are only some, and not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0047] The display control method, display control device, and equipment for clothing processing equipment provided in this disclosure will be described exemplarily below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0048] In some embodiments, such as Figure 1 The diagram shown is a flowchart illustrating a display control method for a garment handling device provided in this disclosure. (Refer to...) Figure 1 The garment processing equipment includes a display area; the display control method includes the following steps:

[0049] S110. Determine the working mode of the garment processing equipment.

[0050] The garment processing equipment includes all garment processing equipment with at least two functions that are known to those skilled in the art, such as washer-dryer combos, but is not limited thereto.

[0051] The working modes of the garment processing equipment include at least one of the following: a first functional mode, a second functional mode, a standby mode, and an alarm mode.

[0052] S120, based on the working mode, controls the display area to display the corresponding target color.

[0053] In this step, based on the working mode determined in the previous step, the display area is controlled to display the corresponding target color. Different working modes correspond to different target colors.

[0054] For example, the target color corresponding to the first functional mode is a cool color, such as blue; the target color corresponding to the second functional mode is a warm color, such as orange; the target color corresponding to the standby mode is a combination of cool and warm colors; and the target color corresponding to the alarm mode is red.

[0055] In this embodiment, the garment processing device includes a display panel with a display area, and the display area uses multiple light-emitting elements (e.g., LEDs) as a backlight.

[0056] For example, the display area uses light-emitting elements of three colors: red (R), green (G), and blue (B) as the backlight; a constant current driving method can be used to achieve full-color display by controlling the brightness duty cycle of the light-emitting elements of different colors.

[0057] For example, the display area uses red, green, and blue (RGB) light-emitting elements as a backlight; the controller of the garment processing equipment drives the light-emitting elements through the IIC protocol and controls the current of the three pins of each light-emitting element. The adjustable range of the current level of each pin is 0-255, which is the same as the RGB color adjustment range. Therefore, various colors can be adjusted by setting the RGB current value of each light-emitting element.

[0058] The display control method for a garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes: determining the operating mode of the garment processing device; and controlling the display area to display a corresponding target color based on the operating mode. Thus, by controlling the display area to display a corresponding target color according to the operating mode of the garment processing device, different target colors correspond to different operating modes. Users can intuitively and easily observe the operating mode of the garment processing device through the displayed color, greatly improving the user experience of the human-computer interaction of the garment processing device and enhancing its aesthetic appearance.

[0059] In some embodiments, the operating mode of the garment processing device includes a first functional mode; "based on the operating mode, controlling the display area to display the corresponding target color" includes the following steps:

[0060] Based on the first functional mode, the control display area displays the first target color.

[0061] In response to user operation, the working mode of the clothing processing equipment can be determined to be the first functional mode.

[0062] For example, a user can activate the first function via a knob (or button) on the display panel or an application on a smart terminal (e.g., a mobile phone). In response to the user's operation, the operating mode of the garment processing device can be determined to be the first function mode, at which time the control display area displays the first target color. When the user observes the display area displaying the first target color, they can determine that the garment processing device is currently in the first function mode.

[0063] In some embodiments, the operating mode of the garment processing device further includes a second functional mode;

[0064] "Controlling the display area to show the corresponding target color based on the working mode" includes the following steps:

[0065] Based on the second functional mode, the control display area displays a second target color, which is different from the first target color.

[0066] In response to user operation, the working mode of the clothing processing equipment can be determined to be the first functional mode.

[0067] For example, a user can activate the second function via a knob (or button) on the display panel or an application on a smart terminal (e.g., a mobile phone). In response to the user's operation, the operating mode of the garment processing device can be determined to be the second function mode, at which time the control display area displays the second target color. If the user observes that the display area displays the first target color, they can determine that the garment processing device is currently in the first function mode.

[0068] For example, the first functional mode includes one of a cleaning function mode and a drying function mode, and the second functional mode includes the other of a cleaning function mode and a drying function mode. When the working mode of the garment processing device is determined to be the cleaning function mode, the control display area displays a cool color; when the working mode of the garment processing device is determined to be the drying function mode, the control display area displays a warm color. Users can intuitively and easily observe whether the working mode of the garment processing device is the cleaning function mode or the drying function mode through the display color of the display area, which greatly improves the user experience of the human-computer interaction of the garment processing device and enhances the aesthetic appearance of the garment processing device.

[0069] In some embodiments, the operating mode of the garment processing device also includes an alarm mode;

[0070] "Controlling the display area to show the corresponding target color based on the working mode" includes the following steps:

[0071] Based on the alarm mode as the working mode, the control display area displays the color of the third target.

[0072] The system can determine whether the garment processing equipment is malfunctioning based on its target parameters. When a malfunction occurs, the equipment's operating mode is set to alarm mode. Target parameters include the electrical and / or physical parameters of the garment processing equipment, such as the voltage and current of the motor and fan, and physical parameters such as water level, water pressure, or temperature. When the garment processing equipment is in a normal state (i.e., without malfunction), the target parameters are within a preset range; when the equipment is in an abnormal state (i.e., with a malfunction), the target parameters will exceed the preset range, for example, by exceeding the upper limit or falling below the lower limit.

[0073] In this embodiment, when the working mode of the clothing processing equipment is determined to be alarm mode, it indicates that the clothing processing equipment is in an abnormal state. The control display area displays the third target color to remind the user that the clothing processing equipment has malfunctioned.

[0074] For example, such as Figure 2 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of the display area in alarm mode provided in an embodiment of this application, wherein the filled stripes represent the third target color. (Refer to...) Figure 2 In alarm mode, the entire display area displays the color of the third target. The color of the third target is different from the color of the first target, and it is also different from the color of the second target.

[0075] In some embodiments, setting the third target color to a striking color, such as red, makes it easier to attract the user's attention.

[0076] In some embodiments, "controlling the display area to display a third target color" includes the following steps:

[0077] The control display area shows the color of the third target and flashes.

[0078] In this embodiment, when the working mode of the clothing processing equipment is determined to be alarm mode, the control display area displays the third target color, and at the same time controls the display area to flash to remind the user that the clothing processing equipment has malfunctioned.

[0079] In some embodiments, the operating mode of the garment processing device also includes a standby mode;

[0080] "Based on the working mode, control the display area to show the corresponding target color" includes:

[0081] The operating mode is standby mode, and the control display area is always on.

[0082] In this embodiment, when the target parameter is within the preset range, it indicates that the clothing processing equipment is fault-free. At this time, no function activation command is received, the clothing processing equipment is in standby mode, and the control display area is always lit.

[0083] For example, such as Figure 3 The diagram shown is a schematic representation of a display area in standby mode according to an embodiment of this application, wherein different filled stripes represent different target colors. (Refer to...) Figure 3 In standby mode, the display area (left half) corresponding to the first function mode displays the first target color, and the display area (right half) corresponding to the second function mode displays the second target color. The first target color and the second target color are different, and all display areas are always on.

[0084] In some embodiments, the first functional mode includes at least two first program modes; the display area includes a first functional display area, the first functional display area includes at least two first program labels, the first program labels corresponding to the first program modes;

[0085] "Controlling the display area to show the corresponding target color based on the working mode" includes the following steps:

[0086] Based on the working mode being the first program mode, the first function display area is controlled to display the first target color, and the corresponding first program label within the first function display area is illuminated.

[0087] In this embodiment, the garment processing device has a first function (e.g., a cleaning function), the first function includes multiple garment processing programs (i.e., first programs), and correspondingly, the working mode of the garment processing device includes a first function mode, the first function mode includes at least two first program modes.

[0088] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown, the display area includes a function display area 1, which includes a first function display area 11. The first function display area 11 includes a first program label, which is located within the first function display area 11. The first program label corresponds one-to-one with the first program mode.

[0089] When a user selects to activate a specific program within the first function, the garment processing device receives the instruction to activate that program. At this point, the garment processing device is determined to operate in the first program mode. Figure 4 As shown, the first function display area 11 and the first program label within the first function display area 11 display the first target color. The brightness of the first program label corresponding to the first program is greater than the brightness of the first function display area 11, so that the user can intuitively and easily identify the first program that is running.

[0090] It should be noted that in this embodiment, three indicators—hue, lightness, and saturation—are used to characterize color. Hue is the most accurate standard for distinguishing different colors; lightness characterizes the brightness of a color—the higher the lightness, the brighter the color appears to the human eye; saturation characterizes the depth of a color—the higher the saturation, the deeper the color. In this embodiment, the first target color, the second target color, and the third target color have different hues. In the first program mode, both the first function display area 11 and the corresponding first program label display the first target color, meaning they display the same hue, but their lightness differs.

[0091] In some embodiments, the operating mode of the garment processing device further includes a second functional mode, which includes at least two second program modes; the display area further includes a second functional display area, which includes at least two second program labels, which correspond to the second program modes.

[0092] Based on the working mode, the control display area displays the corresponding target color, including:

[0093] Based on the working mode being the second program mode, the second function display area is controlled to display the second target color, and the corresponding second program label within the second function display area is illuminated;

[0094] The second target color is different from the first target color.

[0095] In this embodiment, the clothing processing device also has a second function (e.g., a drying function). The second function includes multiple clothing processing programs (i.e., second programs). Correspondingly, the working mode of the clothing processing device includes a second function mode, and the second function mode includes at least two second program modes.

[0096] For example, such as Figure 5 As shown, the function display area 1 also includes a second function display area 12, which includes a second program label located within the second function display area 12. The second program label corresponds one-to-one with the second program mode.

[0097] When a user selects to activate a second program within the second function, the garment processing device receives the instruction to activate that second program. At this point, the garment processing device is determined to operate in the second program mode. Figure 5 As shown, the second function display area 12 and the second program label within the second function display area 12 display the second target color. The brightness of the second program label corresponding to the second program is greater than the brightness of the second function display area 12, so that the user can intuitively and easily identify the running second program.

[0098] It should be noted that in the second program mode, the second function display area 12 and the corresponding second program label both display the second target color, that is, the two display colors belong to the same hue, but there is a difference in their brightness.

[0099] In some embodiments, the display area further includes a selection display area;

[0100] "Based on the working mode, controlling the display area to show the corresponding target color" also includes the following steps:

[0101] Based on the working mode being the first program mode, the control selects the display area to display the first target color;

[0102] as well as,

[0103] Based on the working mode being the second program mode, the control selects the display area to display the second target color.

[0104] For example, such as Figure 4-5 As shown, when the working mode is determined to be the first program mode, both the first function display area 11 and the selection display area 2 display the first target color, and simultaneously illuminate the first program label corresponding to the first program mode, making the brightness of the first program label greater than the brightness of the first function display area 11. When the working mode is determined to be the second program mode, both the second function display area 12 and the selection display area 2 display the second target color, and simultaneously illuminate the second program label corresponding to the second program mode, making the brightness of the second program label greater than the brightness of the second function display area 12.

[0105] It should be noted that, Figure 4-5 The illustration only shows the selection display area 2 as being annular and located between the first function display area 11 and the second function display area 12, and does not constitute a limitation on the display control method provided in the embodiments of this disclosure. In other embodiments, the shape and position of the selection display area 2 can be set as needed, and are not limited thereto.

[0106] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4-5 As shown, the selection display area 2 includes an indicator area 21 and a selection indicator 22, with the selection indicator 21 located within the indicator area 22; the display control method further includes the following steps:

[0107] The color saturation of the control indicator area is not equal to the color saturation of the selected icon.

[0108] In this embodiment, color saturation is used to characterize the lightness or darkness of a color. The color saturation of the indicator area 21 is not equal to the color saturation of the selected icon 22, that is, there is a difference in color depth between the indicator area 21 and the selected icon 22. For example, the color of the indicator area 21 is lighter, and the color of the selected icon is darker; or the color of the indicator area 21 is darker, and the color of the selected icon is lighter. As another example, if the target color is blue, the indicator area 21 displays light blue, and the selected icon 22 displays dark blue; or the indicator area 21 displays dark blue, and the selected icon 22 displays light blue.

[0109] In the first program mode, the position of the selected identifier 22 in the indicator area 21 matches the position of the first program label. For example, as shown... Figure 4 As shown, when a user selects a specific program within the first function, this program corresponds to the topmost program label within the first function display area 11. At this time, both the first function display area 11 and its topmost program label display the first target color, and the brightness of the program label is greater than the brightness of the first function display area 11. Correspondingly, the selection indicator 21 is positioned in the upper area of ​​the indicator area 22, close to the location of the program label. If the user selects a program that corresponds to a program label in another location within the first function display area 11, the position of the selection indicator 21 in the indicator area 22 is adjusted downwards accordingly.

[0110] In the second program mode, the position of the selected identifier 22 in the indicator area 21 matches the position of the second program label. For example, as shown... Figure 5 As shown, when a user selects a second program within the second function, this second program corresponds to the topmost second program label within the second function display area 12. At this time, both the second function display area 12 and its topmost second program label display the second target color, and the brightness of the second program label is greater than the brightness of the second function display area 12. Correspondingly, the selection indicator 21 is positioned in the upper area of ​​the indicator area 22, close to the position of the second program label. If the second program selected by the user corresponds to a first program label in another location within the second function display area 12, the position of the selection indicator 21 in the indicator area 22 is adjusted downwards accordingly.

[0111] For example, such as Figure 4-5As shown, the first function display area 11 is located to the left of the selection display area 2, and the second function display area 12 is located to the right of the selection display area 2. The indicator area 21 includes two partitions. When the user selects to start the first program, i.e., in the first program mode, the first function display area 11, the corresponding first program label, the indicator area 21, and the selection indicator 22 display the first target color. The selection indicator 22 is located in the partition of the indicator area 21 closest to the first function display area 11. The brightness of the first program label corresponding to the first program mode is greater than the brightness of the first function display area 11, and the color saturation of the selection indicator 22 is greater than the color saturation of the indicator area 21. When the user selects to start the second program, i.e., in the second program mode, the second function display area 12, the corresponding second program label, the indicator area 21, and the selection indicator 22 display the second target color. The selection indicator 22 is located in the partition of the indicator area 21 closest to the second function display area 12. The brightness of the second program label corresponding to the second program mode is greater than the brightness of the second function display area 12, and the color saturation of the selection indicator 22 is greater than the color saturation of the indicator area 21.

[0112] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, when the working mode of the garment processing device is standby mode, the first function display area 11 and the partition of the indicator area 21 near the first function display area 11 display the first target color, and the partition of the second function display area 12 and the partition of the indicator area 21 near the second function display area 12 display the second target color. The first program label, the second program label and the selection mark 22 are not displayed.

[0113] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the clothing processing equipment is in alarm mode, the first function display area 11, the second function partition 12 and the indicator area 21 all display the third target color, and the first program label, the second program label and the selection mark 22 are not displayed.

[0114] For example, such as Figure 6 The image shows another display control method for a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of this application. (Refer to...) Figure 6 The display control method includes the following steps:

[0115] S601, Power on.

[0116] In this step, the garment processing equipment is turned on and connected to the power supply.

[0117] S602. Is the garment processing equipment in normal condition?

[0118] In this step, the target parameters are obtained, and the clothing processing equipment is judged to be normal based on the target parameters. If the clothing processing equipment is in an abnormal state, that is, the judgment result is "no", then S603 is executed; if the clothing processing equipment is in a normal state, that is, the judgment result is "yes", then S604 is executed.

[0119] S603, Red alarm flashing.

[0120] At this time, the clothing processing equipment is in alarm mode, and the display area shows red and flashes. In this embodiment, the third target color is red.

[0121] S604, Display standby mode.

[0122] When the garment processing equipment is in normal working condition and not being operated, its operating mode is standby mode, such as... Figure 3 As shown, the first function display area 11 and the indicator area 21 display the first target color in the partitions on the side of the first function display area 11, and the second function display area 12 and the indicator area 21 display the second target color in the partitions on the side of the second function display area 12. The first program label, the second program label and the selection mark 22 are not displayed.

[0123] S605. Select the knob to choose the cleaning program.

[0124] In this step, in response to the user's operation, it is determined whether the user chooses to start the cleaning program. If the determination result is "yes", then S606 is executed; if the determination result is "no", then S607 is executed.

[0125] S606, Display Clean Cool Color Mode.

[0126] In this embodiment, the first function is a cleaning function, the first program is a cleaning program, the first program mode is a cleaning program mode, the first function display area is a cleaning function display area, and the first target color is a cool color. Combined with... Figure 4 The cleaning function display area, the corresponding cleaning program label, the indicator area 21, and the selection mark 22 are all displayed in cool colors. The brightness of the cleaning program label is greater than the brightness of the cleaning function display area. The selection mark 22 is located in the partition of the indicator area 21 that is closer to the cleaning function display area, and the color depth of the selection mark 22 is greater than the color depth of the indicator area 21.

[0127] S607. Select the knob to select the drying program.
