TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of clothes treatment, and particularly provides a control method of a clothes care device and the clothes care device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The clothes care cabinet, also known as a clothes care cabinet or an intelligent clothes care machine, is a modern household appliance designed to maintain, wrinkle, sterilize, deodorize and dry clothes through advanced technical means, so as to prolong the service life of clothes and keep them in the best condition. With the continuous improvement of living standards and the awakening of consumers' forward consciousness, clothes care cabinets are gradually entering people's lives.

[0003] The existing clothes care cabinet generally puts wet clothes into the care chamber of the care cabinet and dries the clothes by blowing hot air onto the wet clothes. However, during the drying process, the water in the wet clothes is mostly collected at the bottom of the clothes under the action of gravity, resulting in that the upper part of the clothes is dried while the bottom part is not dried, which causes poor drying uniformity of the clothes, low efficiency and seriously affects the user's experience.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need in the art for a new technical solution to solve the above problems. SUMMARY

[0021] The number of air outlets is multiple, and multiple air outlets are arranged in a row in a vertical direction, and the step of "controlling the air outlet to deliver hot air towards the wet position on the clothes" specifically comprises:

[0022] In addition to the air outlet corresponding to the wet position, the remaining air outlets are closed.

[0023] In the preferred technical solutions of the above control method, the angle of the air outlet is adjustable, and during the execution of the draining mode, the control method further comprises:

[0024] Make the air outlet blow downwardly.

[0025] In the preferred technical solutions of the above control method, the number of air outlets is multiple, and multiple air outlets are arranged in a row in a vertical direction, and during the execution of the draining mode, the control method further comprises:

[0032] S220: operating the fan of the drying device at the maximum rotating speed.

[0033] In the preferred technical solution of the control method, the number of air outlets is two and they are located on both sides of the clothes hanging member.

[0034] In the second aspect, the present application further provides a clothes care device comprising a controller configured to execute the above-mentioned control method of the clothes care device.

[0035] Those skilled in the art will understand that the technical solution of the present invention provides a control method for a garment care device. The garment care device includes a care chamber, a drying device, an air outlet component installed in the care chamber, and a garment hanging component. The air outlet component has an air outlet connected to the drying device. The drying device can deliver hot air to the garments on the garment hanging component through the air outlet. The garment care device has a draining mode and a drying mode. The control method includes: S100: executing the draining mode; S200: executing the drying mode after the draining mode ends; wherein, when executing the draining mode, the drying device is operated; when executing the drying mode, the drying device is operated, and the air outlet is controlled to deliver hot air towards the damp areas of the garments. By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention can direct airflow towards the damp areas of the garments, thereby improving the uniformity and efficiency of garment drying. Specifically, before executing the drying mode, a draining mode is first executed to remove most of the moisture from the clothes, thereby shortening the subsequent drying time and reducing the risk of damage to the clothes that may be caused by direct high-temperature drying. When executing the drying mode, by detecting the damp areas on the clothes and controlling the direction of the air outlet, it is ensured that the hot air can be accurately blown to and dried these damp areas, achieving efficient and precise care for the clothes. This not only shortens the drying time of the clothes but also reduces the risk of damage to the clothes due to improper drying, thereby improving the overall user satisfaction.

[0036] Furthermore, before executing the step of "controlling the air outlet to deliver hot air towards the damp areas on the clothing," the control method of the present invention further includes: S230: acquiring the humidity value M in the care room; S240: when the humidity value M drops to a first set humidity value M1, acquiring the damp areas. With this setting, after the humidity in the care room drops to the first set humidity value M1, meaning the clothing has already undergone preliminary draining and drying, the remaining damp areas on the clothing can be more accurately identified for targeted drying. This further achieves efficient and precise care for the clothing, improves drying efficiency, reduces energy waste, and protects the clothing from overheating damage.

[0037] Furthermore, the air outlet component of the present invention can move horizontally relative to the clothes hanging component. In the draining mode, the horizontal distance between the air outlet and the clothes is L1; in the drying mode, the air outlet is moved to a horizontal distance of L2 from the clothes; wherein L1 < L2. This arrangement helps to accelerate the draining process of the clothes during the draining stage and reduces the direct impact of hot air on the clothes and increases the coverage of hot air during the drying stage, further improving the uniformity of clothes drying.

[0038] Furthermore, before executing the step "moving the air outlet to a horizontal distance L2 between it and the clothing," the control method of this invention further includes: S230: acquiring the humidity value M in the care room; S240: when the humidity value M decreases to a first set humidity value M1, acquiring the current weight W of the clothing; S250: acquiring the specific value of L2 based on the current weight W. This setting makes the control method of the clothing care equipment more intelligent and precise. By monitoring the humidity changes and weight changes of the clothing in the care room in real time, and dynamically adjusting the air outlet position L2 based on this information, efficient drying of the clothing can be further achieved.

[0052] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. For example, although the following embodiments are described in conjunction with a garment care cabinet, the control method and garment care equipment provided by the present invention are equally applicable to other products that need to solve the problems of uneven drying and poor drying efficiency.

[0053] It should be noted that, in the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, for example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0054] Based on the problems of uneven drying and low efficiency in existing garment care cabinets pointed out in the background art, this invention provides a control method and garment care equipment, which aims to effectively solve the problems of uneven drying and low drying efficiency by adjusting the position of the air outlet according to the dampness of the garment to achieve directional airflow to the damp area of ​​the garment.

[0055] First refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5 ,in, Figure 1 This is a front view of the garment care device of the present invention. Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating the control method of the present invention.

[0056] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the present invention provides a garment care device and a control method for the garment care device. The garment care device includes a care chamber 1, a drying device 2, an air outlet component 3 installed in the care chamber 1, and a garment hanging component 4. The air outlet component 3 has an air outlet 31, which is connected to the drying device 2. The drying device 2 can deliver hot air to the garments on the garment hanging component 4 through the air outlet 31. The garment care device has a draining mode and a drying mode. The control method includes:

[0057] S100: Execute the draining mode;

[0058] S200: After the draining mode ends, the drying mode will be executed;

[0059] In the process of executing the draining mode, the drying device 2 is operated; in the process of executing the drying mode, the drying device 2 is operated, and the air outlet 31 is controlled to deliver hot air towards the damp area on the clothing.

[0060] When clothing needs care, it is hung on the hanging component 4 in the care room 1. The drying device 2 is activated, and the hot air generated by the drying device 2 is blown onto the surface of the clothing through the air outlet 31 on the air outlet component 3, evaporating and carrying away the moisture in the clothing, thus drying it. The control method of this invention first executes a draining mode to remove most of the moisture from the clothing, shortening the subsequent drying time and reducing potential damage to the clothing caused by direct high-temperature drying. After the initial draining, the drying mode is executed to dry the clothing. However, due to uneven moisture distribution in the clothing during the drying process, different areas of the clothing have varying levels of dryness and humidity, resulting in damp areas. This invention addresses this by controlling the air outlet 31 to direct hot air towards the damp areas of the clothing during the drying mode, thus ensuring that the hot air is precisely directed to and dries these damp areas, accelerating the drying rate and achieving efficient and precise care for the clothing. This not only shortens the drying time but also reduces the risk of damage to clothing caused by improper drying, improving overall user satisfaction.

[0061] Preferably, such as Figure 6 As shown, the step of "operating the drying device 2" during the execution of the draining mode in this invention specifically includes:

[0062] S110: Operate the heating element 21 of the drying device 2;

[0063] S120: Make the fan 22 of the drying device 2 rotate at its maximum speed.

[0064] By operating the heating element 21 of the drying device 2, a warm airflow can be generated, which helps the moisture on the surface of the clothes to evaporate quickly and improves the draining efficiency. By rotating the fan 22 of the drying device 2 at its maximum speed, a strong airflow can be generated in the care chamber 1. The hot air can effectively penetrate the clothing fibers and quickly remove the moisture inside and on the surface of the clothes. The setting of the maximum speed ensures the strength and coverage of the airflow, thereby further accelerating the draining process. In addition, this high-speed airflow also helps to prevent the clothes from sticking together during the draining process and maintain the fluffiness and shape of the clothes.

[0065] For example, the draining mode of the present invention is executed for a preset time, such as 3 minutes, 4 minutes, 5 minutes, etc. After the draining mode reaches the preset time, the drying mode is executed. Of course, in other embodiments, the draining mode time can be determined according to the type of clothing, humidity or other factors. The present invention does not specifically limit the execution time of the draining mode.

[0066] Preferably, the angle of the air outlet 31 in this invention is adjustable, and the control method further includes the following during the execution of the draining mode:

[0067] Tilt the air outlet 31 downwards to blow air.

[0068] By tilting the air outlet 31 downwards, the downward-sloping air outlet 31 imparts a downward component to the airflow, which helps to accelerate the removal of water droplets from clothing. When water droplets are impacted by the downward airflow, they are more likely to overcome surface tension, separate from the clothing, and drip off. In addition, the downward-sloping air outlet 31 helps to direct moisture to the underside or edges of the clothing, reducing water residue on the surface of the clothing. It also helps to reduce the direct impact of the airflow on the surface of the clothing, lowering the risk of deformation or damage to the clothing due to excessive wind force.

[0069] For example, in this invention, the angle between the air outlet 31 and the horizontal direction is between 30° and 60°.

[0070] Within this angle range, the airflow direction of the air outlet 31 is neither completely vertical nor completely horizontal, but somewhere in between. This tilted airflow direction helps guide the airflow to the underside and interior of the garment, thereby removing moisture more effectively. It utilizes gravity to help water droplets fall off while ensuring that the airflow penetrates deep into the garment fibers, making the draining process more efficient.

[0071] Preferably, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple air outlets 31, which are arranged in a vertical row. During the execution of the drainage mode, the control method also includes:

[0072] The multiple air vents 31 are arranged to circulate air in a top-to-bottom order.

[0073] The sequential airflow ensures that all parts of the garment receive even airflow, effectively treating both the top and bottom. Furthermore, the top-to-bottom airflow helps to peel away moisture from the garment layer by layer, removing surface moisture first and then gradually penetrating the interior, improving overall drainage efficiency. In addition, the sequential airflow can also direct moisture flow to the lower part or edges of the garment, reducing water residue on the surface and preventing the removed moisture from flowing back inside the garment.

[0074] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, the garment care device of the present invention includes a controller 5, which is configured to perform the drying control method of the garment care device described above.

[0075] For example, such as Figure 3As shown, each of the multiple air outlets 31 in this invention is equipped with a cover 311, which is electrically connected to the controller 5. The controller 5 can control the opening and closing of the cover 311. Thus, by controlling the opening of the cover 311 sequentially from top to bottom through the controller 5, multiple air outlets 31 can be circulated and discharged in a row from top to bottom. The structure is relatively simple and easy to implement.

[0076] Furthermore, the present invention controls the multiple air outlets 31 to circulate air in a top-to-bottom order with a time interval of 2s to 4s, thereby achieving a better drainage effect. Further, the time interval for the multiple air outlets 31 to circulate air in a top-to-bottom order can also be other values, such as 1, 5, 6, etc. The specific time interval can be set according to the actual situation, and the present invention does not impose a specific limitation on it.

[0077] Preferably, such as Figure 6 As shown, the step of "operating the drying device 2" during the execution of the drying mode in this invention specifically includes:

[0078] S210: Operate the heating element 21 of the drying device 2;

[0079] S220: Make the fan 22 of the drying device 2 rotate at its maximum speed.

[0080] The heating element 21 of the drying device 2 operates, generating heat. This heat is transferred into the care chamber 1 through the air outlet 31, raising the temperature inside the care chamber 1. The high-temperature environment helps accelerate the evaporation of moisture from the clothes, thus achieving the drying purpose. The fan 22 is set to operate at maximum speed. The high-speed rotating fan 22 generates a powerful airflow that circulates within the care chamber 1. This not only helps to evenly distribute the heat generated by the heating element 21 throughout the entire care chamber 1, but also quickly removes water vapor from the surface of the clothes. This efficient airflow significantly improves drying efficiency, shortens drying time, and helps clothes better regain their original softness and fluffiness, enhancing the care effect on the clothes.

[0081] For example, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the drying device 2 of this invention includes a heating element 21 and a fan 22. Both the heating element 21 and the fan 22 are installed at the bottom of the garment care device. An air inlet 11 is provided at the bottom of the care chamber 1, and an air outlet 31 is connected to the air inlet 11 through a pipe 12. The heating element 21 can heat the air, and the hot air, under the action of the fan 22, flows sequentially through the air inlet 11, the pipe 12, and the air outlet 31 and is blown onto the garment.

[0082] It should be noted that the heating element 21 in this invention can be an electric heating wire, a PCT heating element, a heat pump heating element, etc. This invention does not limit the specific method of heating element 21.

[0083] Preferably, such as Figure 6 As shown, before executing the step "controlling the air outlet 31 to deliver hot air towards the damp area on the clothing", the control method further includes:

[0084] S230: Obtain the humidity value M in nursing room 1;

[0085] S240: When the humidity value M drops to the first set humidity value M1, obtain the humid location.

[0086] After the humidity in the nursing room 1 is reduced to the first set humidity value M1, the clothes have undergone preliminary draining and drying. At this time, the remaining damp areas on the clothes can be more accurately identified so as to carry out targeted drying, thereby further achieving efficient and precise care for the clothes, improving drying efficiency and reducing energy waste, while protecting the clothes from overheating damage.

[0087] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the nursing room 1 of the present invention is equipped with a temperature and humidity sensor 13 and an infrared imaging sensor 14. The temperature and humidity sensor 13 can detect the humidity value M in the nursing room 1 in real time, thereby accurately reflecting the humidity status in the nursing room 1, so that when the humidity value M drops to the first set humidity value M1, the damp location can be obtained in time. The infrared imaging sensor 14 can identify the remaining damp location on the clothing, thereby accurately locating the area on the clothing that still contains moisture.

[0088] Preferably, such as Figure 6 As shown, the angle of the air outlet 31 is adjustable. The specific steps of "controlling the air outlet 31 to deliver hot air towards the damp area on the clothing" include:

[0089] Adjust the angle of the air outlet 31 so that it faces the humid area; or

[0090] There are multiple air outlets 31, arranged in a vertical row. The step of "controlling the air outlets 31 to deliver hot air towards the damp areas of the clothing" specifically includes:

[0091] Except for the air outlet 31 corresponding to the damp location, close the other air outlets 31.

[0092] By adjusting the angle of the air outlet 31 so that it faces the damp area, the air outlet 31 can be directly aimed at the damp part of the clothing, allowing hot air to act directly and efficiently on that area, accelerating moisture evaporation. Alternatively, all air outlets 31 except the one corresponding to the damp area can be closed. This allows for precise hot air delivery based on the height of the damp area, improving drying efficiency. Furthermore, closing all air outlets except the one corresponding to the damp area ensures that the hot air is concentrated and efficiently applied to the damp area, avoiding heat waste and unnecessary energy consumption.

[0093] Preferably, the air outlet component 3 can move horizontally relative to the clothes hanging component 4. When the draining mode is executed, the horizontal distance between the air outlet 31 and the clothes is L1. When the drying mode is executed, the air outlet 31 is moved to a horizontal distance of L2 between it and the clothes. Wherein, L1 < L2.

[0094] In draining mode, the air outlet component 3 is moved to a horizontal distance L1 from the clothes. Since L1 is relatively small, the air outlet 31 is closer to the clothes, which helps to form a strong airflow on the surface of the clothes, promoting the rapid evaporation and flow of moisture on the clothes and accelerating the draining process. When entering drying mode, the air outlet component 3 moves horizontally, adjusting the horizontal distance between the air outlet 31 and the clothes to L2. Since L2 is greater than L1, the distance between the air outlet 31 and the clothes increases, thereby reducing the direct impact of hot air on the clothes, reducing the risk of damage to the clothes due to overheating. In addition, the hot air can cover the surface of the clothes more evenly, thereby further improving drying efficiency.

[0095] For example, in the draining mode, the horizontal distance L1 between the air outlet 31 and the clothing is a fixed value, specifically 2-5 cm. This ensures that the air outlet 31 is close to the clothing, accelerating the draining of water from the clothing and improving the draining efficiency. Furthermore, in other embodiments, the value of L1 can also be 6 cm, 7 cm, or other values; the specific value is not specifically limited by this invention.

[0096] Furthermore, such as Figure 4As shown, the bottom of the air outlet component 3 of the present invention is provided with a pulley 32, which is connected to a drive mechanism (not shown in the figure). The bottom of the care chamber 1 is provided with a slide rail 15, and the pulley 32 is engaged in the slide rail 15 and rolls in contact with the slide rail 15. Thus, by engaging the pulley 32 in the slide rail 15, it can be ensured that the air outlet component 3 will not tip over, and the horizontal distance between the multiple air outlets 31 and the clothes is basically the same, so that the hot air blown out by the multiple air outlets 31 can be evenly blown onto the clothes. Furthermore, since the pulley 32 is in rolling contact with the slide rail 15, the drive mechanism can drive the pulley 32 to move on the slide rail 15, thereby adjusting the horizontal distance between the air outlet component 3 and the clothes hanging component 4, so that the air outlet component 3 can dry the clothes in different working positions.

[0097] It should be noted that the aforementioned drive mechanism can be hydraulically driven, pneumatically driven, electric motor driven, etc. The present invention does not specifically limit the type of drive mechanism.

[0098] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a distance sensor 33 is installed on the air outlet component 3 in this invention. The controller 5 can adjust the horizontal distance between the air outlet component 3 and the clothing according to the distance sensor 33, thereby accurately adjusting the horizontal distance between the air outlet component 3 and the clothing.

[0099] Preferably, such as Figure 6 As shown, before executing the step "moving the air outlet 31 to a horizontal distance of L2 between it and the clothing", the control method further includes:

[0100] S230: Obtain the humidity value M in nursing room 1;

[0101] S240: When the humidity value M drops to the first set humidity value M1, obtain the current weight W of the clothing;

[0102] S250: Obtain the specific value of L2 based on the current weight W.

[0103] The specific value of L2 is determined based on the current weight W, thereby dynamically adjusting the horizontal distance L2 between the air outlet 31 and the clothes to further improve drying efficiency and effect. When the clothes are heavy and the humidity is high, the air outlet 31 may need to be set closer to remove moisture more quickly; while when the clothes are nearing the end of drying, the distance can be appropriately increased to avoid over-drying or damaging the clothes. This allows for more precise dynamic adjustment of drying parameters based on the humidity in the care room 1 and the actual drying status of the clothes (current weight W), resulting in a more efficient, energy-saving, and safe drying process.

[0104] For example, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a gravity sensor 41 is provided on the clothes hanging component 4 of the present invention. The weight of the clothes in the clothes hanging component 4 can be determined in real time by the gravity sensor 41, so as to more accurately adjust the horizontal distance between the air outlet 31 and the clothes.

[0105] It should be noted that the current weight W and L2 in this invention are mapped. For example, when 0 < W ≤ 500g, L2 = 5cm; when 500g < W ≤ 1000g, L2 = 8cm; when 1000g < W ≤ 1500g, L2 = 10cm; when 1500g < W ≤ 2000g, L2 = 13cm; and when 2000g < W, L2 = 15cm. Furthermore, in other embodiments, the mapping relationship between the current weight W and L2 is specifically set according to the type of clothing to be dried. This invention does not specifically limit the specific mapping relationship between the current weight W and L2.

[0106] Preferably, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are two air outlet components 3, which are located on both sides of the clothes hanging component 4.

[0107] By setting air outlet components 3 on both sides of the hanging component 4, the clothes can be heated and dried simultaneously on both sides during the care of the clothes, which further improves the drying efficiency of the clothes and ensures the uniformity of the drying of the clothes as a whole, effectively improving the care effect of the clothes.

[0108] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, the drying control method for garment care equipment also includes:

[0109] When the humidity in the nursing room 1 is detected to be lower than the second set humidity M2, the drying mode is stopped.

[0110] Exemplarily, the controller 5 can control the operation of the drying device 2 based on the humidity detected by the temperature and humidity sensor 13 within the nursing room 1. Specifically, in this invention, when the temperature and humidity sensor 13 detects that the humidity within the nursing room is below 30%, i.e., below the second preset humidity M2, the drying device 2 is controlled to stop. Thus, the residual heat within the nursing room 1 can be used to further dry the clothes, fully utilizing the heat generated by the drying device 2 and saving energy. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the preset humidity value can also be other values ​​such as 25%, 20%, 15%, etc., and this invention does not specifically limit this value.

However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of protection of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after such changes or substitutions will all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
