Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of clothing processing equipment, and more particularly to a control method for clothing processing equipment and clothing processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] As people's living standards improve, their demands for laundry equipment such as washing machines are also increasing. Different weights of clothing require different amounts of water, washing time, and detergent. Users hope that washing machines and other laundry equipment can match appropriate washing parameters based on the weight of the clothes to achieve better cleaning results and save energy.

[0003] In related technologies, the load is weighed and its weight is obtained before processing the clothes, and the relevant processing parameters are determined based on the load weight. However, for clothes with a certain moisture content, such as sweaty or soaked clothes in summer, it is impossible to accurately characterize the dry weight of the load, and therefore impossible to accurately determine the processing parameters. This results in poor washing performance and wasted power consumption of the clothing processing equipment. Summary of the Invention

[0020] Optionally, the step of introducing a preset amount of water into the outer drum of the garment processing device through the water inlet, so that the water enters the inner drum through the through hole of the inner drum, includes:

[0021] A second preset water volume is introduced into the outer drum of the garment processing device through the water inlet, so that the water volume after the water level in the inner drum reaches the preset water level reaches the first water volume.

[0022] The first water volume is positively correlated with the load weight before water intake.

[0023] Optionally, determining the load water absorption parameters based on the load's absorption capacity of the preset influent volume includes:

[0024] Determine the water absorption time when the water level in the inner cylinder drops to the preset water level and the first water volume, and determine the load water absorption parameters.

[0025] Optionally, determining the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption parameters includes:

[0026] The initial moisture content of the load corresponding to the load water absorption parameter is determined based on the second calibration relationship between the load water absorption parameter and the initial moisture content of the load.

[0027] Optionally, after the preset water volume is introduced into the outer drum of the garment processing device through the water inlet, the process includes:

Therefore, by determining the load water absorption parameters based on the load's absorption rate of the preset water intake, and then determining the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption parameters, and finally determining the garment processing operation parameters based on the initial moisture content of the load, the accuracy of the set garment processing operation parameters is improved. This avoids interference from the weight of water contained in the load before performing the garment processing operation, which could lead to inaccurate garment processing operation parameter settings affecting the washing effect. This improves the washing effect on clothes and saves energy consumption of the garment processing device. Attached Figure Description

[0043] 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.

[0044] 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.

[0045] In related technologies, the load is weighed and its weight is obtained before processing the clothes, and the relevant processing parameters are determined based on the load weight. However, for clothes with a certain moisture content, such as sweaty or soaked clothes in summer, it is impossible to accurately characterize the dry weight of the load, and therefore impossible to accurately determine the processing parameters. This results in poor washing performance and wasted power consumption of the clothing processing equipment.

[0046] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a control method for a garment processing device provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure. This control method can be applied to application scenarios requiring the determination of the dryness or wetness of garments. The method can be executed by a control device for the garment processing device provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, which can be implemented using software and / or hardware. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps:

[0047] S101. Introduce a preset water flow rate into the garment processing equipment.

[0048] For example, before performing clothing treatment operations, such as before washing clothes, a preset amount of water can be supplied to the inner or outer drum of the clothing treatment device to allow the load in the clothing treatment device to absorb water.

[0049] S102. Determine the load water absorption parameters based on the load's absorption capacity of the preset inlet water volume.

[0050] Specifically, during the process of introducing a preset amount of water into the garment processing equipment, the load located in the inner drum of the garment processing equipment will absorb water. The water absorption parameters of the load are determined based on the degree to which the load absorbs the preset amount of water. For example, the degree to which the load absorbs the preset amount of water can be used to determine the water absorption rate of the load, or to determine the water absorption speed of the load.

[0051] S103. Determine the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption parameters.

[0052] Specifically, since the initial moisture content of the load is different, the degree to which the load absorbs the preset amount of water is different. For example, for loads of the same weight and material, the water absorption rate of the load in a dry state is different from that of the load in a wet state. Therefore, the initial moisture content of the load can be determined based on the load water absorption parameters.

[0053] For example, the correspondence between load water absorption parameters and initial load moisture content can be determined based on historical data or experience. Once the load water absorption parameters are determined, the initial load moisture content can be determined by looking up a table or other means.

[0054] S104. Control the garment processing operation parameters according to the initial moisture content of the load.

[0055] Specifically, the initial moisture content of the load determines whether the load fed into the garment processing equipment is dry or wet, and the dry load weight is determined based on the initial moisture content. Different dry load weights correspond to different garment processing operation parameters, such as the amount of water and detergent added to the garment processing equipment during the washing operation. Therefore, controlling the garment processing operation parameters based on the initial moisture content of the load can improve the accuracy of the set garment processing operation parameters, avoid interference from the weight of water contained in the load before the garment processing operation, and prevent inaccurate garment processing operation parameter settings that affect the washing effect. This improves the washing effect on clothes and saves energy consumption of the garment processing equipment.

[0056] This embodiment of the present disclosure determines the load water absorption parameters based on the load's absorption rate of a preset amount of water, and then determines the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption parameters. Based on the initial moisture content of the load, the garment processing operation parameters are determined, which improves the accuracy of the set garment processing operation parameters and avoids the interference of the weight of water contained in the load before performing the garment processing operation on the determination of the garment processing operation parameters, thus avoiding the problem of inaccurate garment processing operation parameter settings affecting the washing effect. This improves the washing effect on the clothes and saves energy consumption of the garment processing equipment.

[0057] Optionally, a preset water intake volume is introduced into the garment processing equipment, including: based on the load weight before water intake being greater than or equal to a preset load, the preset water intake volume is introduced into the inner drum of the garment processing equipment through a spray device.

[0058] Specifically, based on the load weight before water intake being greater than or equal to the preset load amount, for example, when the load weight is greater than half of the inner drum capacity, water is introduced into the inner drum of the clothing processing equipment through a spray device until the preset water intake amount is reached.

[0059] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating a water ingress scenario for a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. Figure 2 As shown, the load is placed in the inner drum 1 of the garment processing equipment. The spray device 3 is located, for example, above the door seal of the garment processing equipment. When water enters the inner drum 1 of the garment processing equipment through the spray device 3, the water is sprayed from the top of the inner drum 1 onto the load. For example, if the weight of the load is greater than half the capacity of the inner drum 1, the load is more likely to come into contact with the water and thus absorb water. The water sprayed into the inner drum comes into direct contact with the load, accelerating the water absorption efficiency.

[0060] Optionally, introducing a preset water volume into the inner drum of the garment processing equipment via a spray device includes: introducing a first preset water volume into the inner drum of the garment processing equipment via a spray device; wherein the first preset water volume is positively correlated with the load weight before water introduction.

[0061] For example, a large load type is determined based on the load weight before water intake being greater than or equal to a preset load amount. Since users will put loads of various materials into the clothing processing equipment for washing together when washing clothes, the determined large load type corresponds to a mixed material load.

[0062] Based on experience or historical data, the relationship between the mixed material of the load corresponding to the large load type and the first preset water intake can be stored in advance. For example, if the mixed material of the load is determined to be N by the load weight before water intake, the calibrated water absorption parameter can be determined by looking up a table, for example, n. If the load weight before water intake is, for example, W kg, then the first preset water intake can be set to, for example, n1W liters, where n1 is associated with n.

[0063] Optionally, the load water absorption parameters are determined based on the load's absorption capacity of the preset water intake, including: determining the load water absorption parameters based on the difference in load weight before and after water intake, and the preset water intake.

[0064] For example, before water is introduced into the inner drum of the garment processing equipment, the load weight is obtained, for example, W kg. After the water is introduced into the inner drum of the garment processing equipment to a preset water volume n1W liters, the load weight is obtained again, and the weight of the load after water absorption is obtained, for example, W1 kg. Based on the difference in load weight before and after water introduction, and the preset water volume, the load water absorption parameter is determined, that is, the water absorption rate is (W1-W) / n1W.

[0065] Optionally, determining the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption parameters includes: determining the initial moisture content of the load corresponding to the load water absorption parameters based on a first calibration relationship between the load water absorption parameters and the initial moisture content of the load.

[0066] For example, based on the load weight before water intake being greater than or equal to a preset load amount, such as determining the load to be a large load type, a first calibration relationship between the load water absorption parameters and the initial moisture content of the large load type can be determined based on historical data or empirical values ​​from when large load types are introduced into the garment processing equipment, and this first calibration relationship corresponding to the large load type is stored in the garment processing equipment. Once the load water absorption parameters are determined, the initial moisture content of the load can be determined by looking up a table containing the first calibration relationship of the large load type. For example, based on experience or historical data, the water absorption parameters corresponding to general load types corresponding to large loads, as well as different calibrated water absorption parameters corresponding to different initial moisture contents, can be pre-stored. Based on the actually measured water absorption parameters, the corresponding initial moisture content can be determined by looking up a table or other methods.

[0067] Optionally, a preset water intake volume is introduced into the garment processing equipment, including: based on the load weight before water intake being less than a preset load, the preset water intake volume is introduced into the outer drum of the garment processing equipment through the water inlet, so that the water enters the inner drum through the through hole of the inner drum.

[0068] Specifically, when the load weight is less than or equal to the preset load, for example, when the load weight is less than or equal to half of the inner drum capacity, the load is mainly piled up at the bottom of the garment processing equipment because the load weight is small. It is appropriate to use the general method of water inlet between the inner and outer drums. Water enters the inner drum from the bottom and begins to soak the clothes. Generally, the direct water inlet speed is greater than the spray water inlet speed. Direct water inlet is more efficient under small load conditions.

[0069] Therefore, refer to Figure 2As shown in the embodiment of this disclosure, water is introduced into the outer cylinder 2 of the clothing processing device through the water inlet 4 until a preset water volume is reached. As the water level gradually rises, the water in the outer cylinder 2 of the clothing processing device enters the inner cylinder 1 of the clothing processing device through the through hole. The load located at the bottom of the inner cylinder 1 of the clothing processing device then comes into contact with the water and absorbs it. This improves the water intake efficiency and the accuracy of the obtained load water absorption parameters.

[0070] Optionally, a preset water volume is introduced into the outer drum of the garment processing device through the water inlet so that the water enters the inner drum through the through hole of the inner drum. This includes: introducing a second preset water volume into the outer drum of the garment processing device through the water inlet so that the water volume after the water level in the inner drum reaches the preset water level reaches the first water volume; wherein the first water volume is positively correlated with the load weight before water intake.

[0071] For example, if the load weight before water intake is less than the preset load amount, it is determined to be a small load type. Even if the load weight put into the clothing processing equipment is small, the materials of each part of each load are different. Therefore, the small load type also corresponds to a load of mixed materials.

[0072] Based on experience or historical data, the relationship between the mixed material of the load corresponding to the small load type and the second preset water intake can be stored in advance. For example, if the mixed material of the load is determined to be M by the load weight before water intake, the calibrated water absorption parameter, such as m, can be determined by looking up a table. If the load weight before water intake is, for example, Y kg, the second preset water intake can be determined by looking up a table, such as (Z+m1Y) liters, so that the water intake after the inner cylinder water level reaches the preset water level reaches the first water volume m1Y liters. m1 is related to m, and the water volume when the water level reaches the preset water level is Z liters.

[0073] Reference Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the preset water inlet volume introduced into the outer drum 2 of the clothing processing device through the water inlet 4 is set to a second preset water volume (Z+m1Y) liters. As the water level gradually rises, the water in the outer drum 2 of the clothing processing device rises from the bottom B of the outer drum to the bottom A of the inner drum, and enters the inner drum 1 of the clothing processing device through the through hole, so that the water inlet volume after the water level in the inner drum reaches the preset water level C reaches the first water volume m1Y liters. Figure 2 The example shows a preset water level C above the bottom A of the inner drum. This allows the load at the bottom of the inner drum 1 of the garment processing equipment to come into contact with water and absorb water, improving the accuracy of the obtained load water absorption parameters.

[0074] Optionally, the load water absorption parameters are determined based on the degree of absorption of the preset water volume by the load, including: determining the water absorption time when the water level in the inner cylinder drops to the preset water level and the first water volume, and determining the load water absorption parameters.

[0075] Specifically, the load water absorption parameter can be, for example, the load water absorption rate. As the load continuously absorbs water, the water level in the inner drum of the garment processing equipment will continuously decrease until it reaches the preset water level. The amount of water absorbed by the load is the first water volume m1Y liters. The time it takes for the water level in the inner drum of the garment processing equipment to drop from the first water volume to the preset water level is the load water absorption time, for example, t seconds. Then the load water absorption rate is m1Y / t.

[0076] For example, the preset water level can be the water level at the bottom of the inner cylinder, or it can be the water level above the bottom of the inner cylinder.

[0077] Optionally, determining the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption parameters includes: determining the initial moisture content of the load corresponding to the load water absorption parameters based on a second calibration relationship between the load water absorption parameters and the initial moisture content of the load.

[0078] For example, if the load weight before water intake is less than a preset load, such as determining that the load is a small load type, a second calibration relationship between the load water absorption parameters and the initial moisture content of the small load type can be determined based on historical data or empirical values ​​from when small load types are introduced into the garment processing equipment. This second calibration relationship corresponding to the small load type is then stored in the garment processing equipment. Once the load water absorption parameters are determined, the initial moisture content of the load can be determined by looking up a table containing the second calibration relationship for small load types. For example, based on experience or historical data, the water absorption parameters corresponding to general load types for small loads, as well as different calibrated water absorption parameters corresponding to different initial moisture contents, can be pre-stored. Based on the actually measured water absorption parameters, the corresponding initial moisture content can be determined by looking up a table.

[0079] Optionally, after a preset amount of water is introduced into the outer drum of the garment processing device through the water inlet, the process includes: controlling the inner drum of the garment processing device to rotate until the water level in the inner drum drops to the preset water level.

[0080] Specifically, in order to ensure that the load can fully absorb water, after the preset amount of water is introduced into the outer drum of the garment processing equipment through the water inlet, the inner drum of the garment processing equipment is controlled to rotate, so that the load is relatively dispersed, avoiding the problem of the load piling up in one place and causing some loads to be unable to absorb water. This ensures that the load can fully contact the water in the inner drum of the garment processing equipment until the water level in the inner drum of the garment processing equipment drops to the preset water level.

[0081] Optionally, the garment processing operation parameters are controlled based on the initial moisture content of the load, including: determining the dry load weight based on the initial moisture content of the load; and controlling the water intake and / or detergent input in the garment processing operation parameters based on the dry load weight and the initial moisture content of the load.

[0082] For example, when the initial moisture content of the load is, for example, 0%, it means that the load does not contain water and is a dry load. The weight of the load before water is added is the dry load weight. The amount of water added in the laundry treatment operation parameters is determined based on the dry load weight, and / or the amount of detergent added in the laundry treatment operation parameters is determined based on the dry load weight.

[0083] If the initial moisture content of the load is, for example, a%, and a≠0, it indicates that the load contains water and is a wet load. The weight of the water in the load is determined based on the initial moisture content. The difference between the weight of the load before water intake and the weight of the water in the load is the dry load weight. The detergent dosage in the laundry treatment operating parameters is determined using the dry load weight. The theoretical water intake in the laundry treatment operating parameters is then determined using the dry load weight. The difference between the theoretical water intake and the weight of the water in the load is the actual water intake that should be fed into the laundry treatment equipment.

[0084] For example, garment processing equipment can pre-store the correspondence between dry load weight and water intake. Once the dry load weight is determined, the water intake can be determined by looking up a table or other methods. Similarly, garment processing equipment can pre-store the correspondence between dry load weight and detergent dosage. Once the dry load weight is determined, the detergent dosage can be determined by looking up a table or other methods.

[0085] Figure 3 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a control method for a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the control method for the garment processing equipment includes:

[0086] S301, Obtain the load weight.

[0087] S302. Determine whether the load weight is greater than the preset load amount; if yes, proceed to step 303; if no, proceed to step 306.

[0088] S303, Water is introduced into the inner drum of the garment processing equipment through a spray device at a preset water volume.

[0089] S304. Based on the difference in load weight before and after water intake, and the preset water intake volume, determine the load water absorption rate.

[0090] S305. Determine the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption rate.

[0091] S306. A second preset water volume is introduced into the outer drum of the clothing processing equipment through the water inlet, so that the water volume after the water level in the inner drum reaches the preset water level reaches the first water volume.

[0092] S307. Control the rotation of the inner drum of the garment processing equipment until the water level in the inner drum drops to the preset water level.

[0093] S308. Determine that the water level in the inner cylinder has dropped to the preset water level, and determine the load water absorption rate based on the load water absorption time and the first water volume.

[0094] S309. Determine the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption rate.

[0095] S310. Determine the dry load weight based on the initial moisture content of the load.

[0096] S311. Based on the dry load weight and the initial moisture content of the load, control the water intake and / or detergent input in the garment processing operation parameters.

[0097] Optionally, the garment processing equipment includes an impeller assembly and a Hall sensor; the impeller assembly is located in the water inlet path; the Hall sensor is used to acquire the rotational speed of the impeller assembly and determine the water inlet volume of the garment processing equipment based on the rotational speed of the impeller assembly; the preset water inlet volume for the inner drum of the garment processing equipment includes: controlling the preset water inlet volume for the inner drum of the garment processing equipment through the Hall sensor.

[0098] The conventional method for detecting water intake is to determine the water intake by controlling the opening and closing time of the inlet valve and a fixed water intake rate. However, different water pressures result in different water intake rates and inaccurate water intake, which in turn leads to inaccurate load water absorption parameters.

[0099] To address the aforementioned issues, the garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes an impeller assembly and a Hall sensor. Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of an impeller device and a Hall sensor provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. The impeller device is located on the water inlet path; for example, the water inlet 8 of the impeller device is connected to a water tap, and the water outlet 9 of the impeller device is connected to the water inlet valve of a laundry treatment device. Water enters the impeller device through the drain pipe 63 and impacts the blades 61 in the impeller device, converting the kinetic energy of the water flow into the kinetic energy of the blades 61, causing the blades 61 to rotate. The rotation of the blades 61 drives the shaft 62 to rotate, and the shaft 62 cuts the magnetic field lines in the generator, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. The electrical energy can be stored in a battery and output to power the subsequent operation of the Hall sensor 7. The Hall sensor 7 is installed near the blade device 6 to detect the number of rotations of the shaft 62. The Hall sensor 7 may also include a processor for processing the signal output by the Hall sensor 7 to obtain the rotational speed of the blades 61. The amount of water entering the garment processing equipment is related to the rotation speed of the blade 61. The amount of water can be obtained by detecting the rotation speed of the blade 61. For example, the amount of water is equal to the product of the rotation speed and the water inlet coefficient. The water inlet coefficient can be obtained in advance and is not limited here.

[0100] The control method for the clothing processing equipment provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure determines the load water absorption parameters based on the load's absorption degree of a preset amount of water, determines the initial moisture content of the load based on the load water absorption parameters, and determines the clothing processing operation parameters based on the initial moisture content of the load. This improves the accuracy of the set clothing processing operation parameters, avoids interference from the weight of water contained in the load before performing the clothing processing operation on the determination of the clothing processing operation parameters, and prevents the problem of inaccurate clothing processing operation parameter settings affecting the washing effect. This improves the washing effect on clothes and saves energy consumption of the clothing processing equipment.
