Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of laundry equipment technology, and in particular to a garment processing device and its washing control method, apparatus, and storage medium. Background Technology

[0002] As people's demand for garment cleaning functions and the cleanliness of their clothes increases, washing machines with stain removal functions have appeared on the market. However, the stain removal effect of washing machines with stain removal functions currently on the market is relatively poor. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The technical problem solved by this invention is that existing washing machines have poor stain removal performance.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention provides a washing control method for a garment processing device, comprising: responding to a stain removal washing start command to begin a washing program, the washing program including: a water injection stage, wherein a corresponding amount of detergent and an optimal water ratio are injected into the washing tub of the garment processing device according to the amount of garments to be washed, to obtain washing water in the washing tub, wherein the optimal water ratio is determined based on a preset optimal detergent concentration and the amount of detergent injected.

[0005] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the embodiments of the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0006] The optimal water volume is determined based on the amount of detergent injected and the preset optimal detergent concentration. In this way, regardless of the amount of clothes to be washed, the washing water obtained after diluting the injected detergent with the optimal water volume matches the optimal concentration of the detergent. Therefore, when washing clothes, the optimal stain removal performance of the detergent can be fully utilized, and the stain removal effect can be improved.

[0007] Optionally, the washing program further includes a main wash stage, in which the drum of the washing tub rotates at a preset speed and rhythm to perform a washing operation on the clothes to be washed. During the washing operation, this includes circulating the washing water in the washing tub and / or heating the washing water to a target temperature. Circulating the washing water in the washing tub refers to drawing washing water from the washing tub and spraying the drawn water back onto the clothes to be washed. By circulating the washing water, the optimally concentrated detergent can more fully penetrate the stains on the clothes to be washed, allowing the stains to be dissolved more effectively by the detergent, thus improving the stain removal effect. Heating the washing water allows the detergent to act on the stains at a more suitable temperature, enabling the detergent to exert a better stain removal effect.

[0008] Optionally, when circulating the washing water in the washing tub, at least during the stage where the extracted washing water is sprayed back onto the clothes to be washed in the washing tub, the drum rotates at a first rotation speed, which is greater than or equal to 60 revolutions per minute and less than or equal to 300 revolutions per minute. Typically, when the drum rotates at a speed greater than or equal to 60 revolutions per minute, the clothes to be washed adhere to the drum wall under centrifugal force. The washing water absorbed by the clothes is thrown out of the clothes under centrifugal force. At this time, the detergent sprayed back into the drum is sprayed towards the drum wall under centrifugal force, thus being evenly sprayed onto the clothes to be washed and absorbed again. This process is repeated, achieving multiple absorption and expulsion of the optimal concentration of detergent from the clothes, further improving the uniformity and thoroughness of the detergent's penetration of stains on the clothes and enhancing the stain removal effect.

[0009] Optionally, the first rotational speed is greater than or equal to 100 rpm and less than or equal to 180 rpm. At a higher rotational speed, the washing water absorbed by the clothes to be washed is more easily spun out, which can improve the efficiency of washing water being spun out of the clothes to be washed, and thus increase the number of times washing water is spun out and absorbed per unit time, so as to further improve the uniformity and fullness of the detergent in the washing water in wetting the stains on the clothes, and improve the stain removal effect.

[0010] Optionally, the step of circulating the washing water in the washing tub is performed when the liquid level in the washing tub is greater than or equal to a preset first liquid level. This ensures that the washing water in the drum meets the requirements for wetting the clothes and, for devices with heating functions, prevents them from drying out, thus ensuring the normal operation of the clothing processing equipment.

[0011] Optionally, during the process of drawing washing water from the washing tub, the liquid level in the washing tub must meet the following condition: the liquid level in the washing tub must be greater than or equal to a second liquid level, and the second liquid level must be greater than or equal to the first liquid level. That is, during the washing water circulation operation, the liquid level in the washing tub must always be greater than or equal to the second liquid level to meet the immersion requirements of the clothes during the washing water circulation process and to prevent insufficient washing water in the drum, which would prevent the clothes from coming into contact with the washing water.

[0012] Optionally, the washing control method further includes: monitoring the liquid level in the washing tub when drawing washing water from the washing tub; and stopping the circulation operation of the washing water in the washing tub when the liquid level in the washing tub is lower than the second liquid level. Stopping the circulation operation of the washing water in the washing tub when the liquid level in the washing tub is lower than the second liquid level ensures the normal operation of the clothing processing equipment.

[0013] Optionally, heating the washing water to the target temperature includes: heating the washing water in stages according to a preset temperature gradient, from low to high; maintaining the temperature corresponding to each temperature gradient for a certain period of time until the washing water reaches the target temperature. The temperatures corresponding to each temperature gradient are determined based on preset removal temperatures for various stain types. Because the temperature corresponding to each stain type is maintained for a corresponding duration, the detergent can act on the stains at a more suitable temperature, resulting in better removal of each stain type. This allows for the removal of multiple stain types in a single wash, improving the overall stain removal effect.

[0014] Optionally, the target temperature is greater than or equal to 40 degrees Celsius, and the washing time after heating the washing water to the target temperature and maintaining the target temperature while performing the washing operation is greater than or equal to 18 minutes. This allows the detergent to fully exert its activity within an optimal temperature range to effectively decompose stains and improve stain removal efficiency.

[0015] Optionally, the washing water in the washing tub may be circulated before and / or after heating the washing water to the target temperature.

[0016] Optionally, if the washing water in the washing tub is circulated both before and after heating the washing water to the target temperature, the duration of the washing water circulation operation performed before heating the washing water to the target temperature is less than the duration of the washing water circulation operation performed after heating the washing water to the target temperature.

[0017] Optionally, the washing program further includes a spin-drying stage, wherein the spin-drying stage follows the main washing stage, and during the spin-drying stage, the drum of the washing tub accelerates to a second rotation speed and operates at the second rotation speed for a preset time, wherein the main washing stage follows the water injection stage.

[0018] Optionally, the second rotation speed is less than or equal to 1000 revolutions per minute. In this way, while achieving the desired spin-drying effect on the clothes, wear and tear on the clothes can be reduced, thus protecting them.

[0019] Optionally, the preset time for operation at the second rotation speed is less than or equal to 3 minutes. While maintaining a good dehydration effect, shortening the dehydration time to less than or equal to 3 minutes can reduce wear and tear on clothing at high rotation speeds and protect the garments.

[0020] Optionally, the preset time for operation at the second rotation speed is less than or equal to 1 minute. This further shortens the total washing time while still meeting the dehydration requirements.

[0021] Optionally, injecting a corresponding amount of detergent into the washing tub of the laundry treatment device according to the amount of laundry to be washed includes: if the weight of the laundry to be washed is less than or equal to a set weight, injecting a first fixed amount of detergent; or, if the weight of the laundry to be washed in the washing tub is greater than the set weight, obtaining a detergent injection adjustment coefficient, adjusting the first fixed amount of detergent using the injection adjustment coefficient to obtain a second fixed amount of detergent, and injecting the second fixed amount of detergent, wherein the second fixed amount of detergent is more than the first fixed amount of detergent. Thus, even when the weight of the laundry to be washed is small, the optimal water volume determined based on the first fixed amount of detergent and the preset optimal detergent concentration can not only meet the requirements for wetting, circulating heating, or maintaining the temperature of the washing water for a certain period of time, but also ensure that the resulting washing water matches the optimal concentration of detergent, thus ensuring stain removal effectiveness.

[0022] Optionally, the total washing time of the washing program is less than or equal to 60 minutes. Because the detergent is diluted with the optimal amount of water to obtain wash water that matches the optimal concentration of the detergent, the detergent's optimal stain-removing performance can be fully utilized. Therefore, the stain-removing time can be greatly shortened, such as reducing the duration of the main wash stage, and eliminating the need for soaking. This significantly reduces the total washing time, improving stain-removing efficiency and enhancing the user experience while maintaining a superior stain-removing effect.

[0023] This application also provides a washing control device for a garment processing equipment, comprising: an execution unit for starting a washing program in response to a stain removal washing start command, the washing program comprising: a water injection stage, wherein a corresponding amount of detergent and an optimal water ratio are injected into the washing tub of the garment processing equipment according to the amount of garments to be washed, the optimal water ratio being determined based on a preset optimal detergent concentration and the amount of detergent injected.

[0024] This application also provides a computer-readable storage medium having a computer program stored thereon, wherein the computer program, when executed by a processor, performs the steps of any of the washing control methods described above.

[0025] This application also provides a garment processing device, including a memory and a processor, wherein the memory stores a computer program that can run on the processor, and the processor executes the steps of any of the washing control methods described above when running the computer program.

[0026] This application also provides a computer program product, including a computer program / instructions that, when executed by a processor, implement the steps of any of the washing control methods described above. Attached Figure Description

[0027] Figure 1This is a flowchart of a washing control method for a clothing processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention;

[0028] Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a washing control method for another garment processing device in an embodiment of the present invention. Detailed Implementation

[0029] As mentioned above, current washing machines have relatively poor stain removal performance. Research has found that current stain removal functions are primarily designed based on the type of clothing and stain, which may prevent the detergent from reaching its full potential, resulting in poor stain removal. Furthermore, current washing programs for removing specific stains can only be configured for one type of stain, offering little personal choice for users and resulting in ineffective stain removal. These programs typically take over an hour, with most requiring two to three hours. This excessively long washing time consumes a significant amount of time for users to process their clothes, while also reducing stain removal efficiency.

[0030] To address the aforementioned issue of poor stain removal performance, this application determines the optimal water volume based on the amount of detergent injected and a preset optimal detergent concentration. Thus, regardless of the quantity of laundry, the wash water obtained after diluting the injected detergent with the optimal water volume matches the optimal concentration of the detergent. Therefore, when washing the laundry, the optimal stain removal performance of the detergent can be fully utilized, improving the stain removal effect.

[0031] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] The garment processing equipment involved in this application can be a washing machine with a single washing function, a washer-dryer combo (also known as a washer-dryer combo), or other garment processing equipment with a washing function. The garment processing equipment includes a washing tub (also known as a processing tub, processing chamber, etc.) for holding clothes and washing water, a detergent dispenser, a drive unit, a drainage device, a water supply device, and a controller. The washing tub may include a coaxial outer drum and a roller, with the roller located inside the outer drum and rotating relative to the outer drum under the drive of the drive unit. The drainage device is used to drain the water in the washing tub to the outside of the garment processing equipment. The control device is used to control the coordinated operation of the various components in the garment processing equipment during the washing process. For example, the control device can control the automatic addition of detergent, automatic water intake, heating of washing water, and control the drive unit to drive the roller to rotate according to a set program for washing, rinsing, or spin-drying.

[0033] This application provides a washing control method for a garment processing device, referring to... Figure 1The washing control method includes the following steps:

[0034] Step 11: In response to the stain removal washing start command, start the washing program; the washing program includes: water injection stage, injecting the appropriate amount of detergent and the optimal ratio of water into the washing tub of the clothing treatment equipment according to the amount of clothes to be washed, to obtain washing water in the washing tub, wherein the optimal ratio of water is determined according to the preset optimal detergent concentration and the amount of detergent injected.

[0035] By adopting the above scheme, the optimal water ratio is determined based on the amount of detergent injected and the preset optimal detergent concentration. In this way, no matter how much laundry is to be washed, the washing water obtained after the injected detergent is diluted with the optimal water ratio matches the optimal concentration of the detergent. Therefore, when washing laundry, the optimal stain removal performance of the detergent can be fully utilized, and the stain removal effect can be improved.

[0036] In practice, various methods can be used to trigger the generation of the stain removal washing start command. For example, the garment processing equipment may have a program selection knob; rotating the knob to the stain removal program triggers the generation of the stain removal washing start command. Alternatively, the garment processing equipment may have a program selection button; this button can be either a physical button or a virtual button. Another example is the garment processing equipment equipped with a voice acquisition and recognition module. This module collects user voice data and performs voice recognition; when a stain removal washing start command is recognized, it triggers the generation of the command. The stain removal washing start command can be "Start stain removal program," "Stain removal washing," or other predefined commands, as long as the predefined command has a corresponding relationship with the stain removal program. It is understood that other methods can also be used to trigger the generation of the stain removal washing start command; these will not be listed here.

[0037] After detecting the generation of the stain removal washing start command, step 11 can be executed.

[0038] In practice, detergent can be dispensed using the detergent dispensing function of the laundry processing equipment. For example, if the laundry processing equipment has an automatic detergent dispensing function, when configuring the automatic detergent dispensing function program, the appropriate amount of detergent is injected into the washing tub of the laundry processing equipment according to the amount of laundry to be washed.

[0039] The quantity of laundry to be washed can be expressed as the weight of the laundry. A weight measuring device with a weight measurement function can be installed at the bottom of the laundry handling equipment. This weight measuring device can be a pressure sensor, a gravity sensor, etc. For example, a pressure sensor can sense the pressure changes in the washing tub when it is empty and after the laundry is added, and then estimate the weight of the laundry in the washing tub based on the pressure change. Similarly, a gravity sensor can sense the weight changes in the washing tub when it is empty and after the laundry is added, and then estimate the weight of the laundry in the washing tub based on the weight change.

[0040] In some embodiments, if the weight of the clothes to be washed is less than or equal to a set weight, a first amount of detergent is injected.

[0041] The initial amount of detergent can be determined based on the minimum water intake requirement of the garment processing equipment. This minimum water intake can be determined based on one or more of the following: the garment's wetting requirements, the need for circulating heating, and the time required to maintain the washing water temperature. Thus, even when the weight of the garments to be washed is small, the optimal water volume determined based on the initial amount of detergent and a preset optimal detergent concentration not only meets the wetting requirements, circulating heating requirements, or the time required to maintain the washing water temperature, but also ensures that the resulting washing water matches the optimal detergent concentration, guaranteeing effective stain removal.

[0042] As a non-limiting embodiment, the weight can be set to 3 kg.

[0043] In other embodiments, if the weight of the clothes to be washed in the washing tub is greater than the set weight, a detergent injection adjustment coefficient is obtained. This adjustment coefficient is then used to adjust the first amount of detergent to obtain a second amount of detergent, which is then injected in greater quantities than the first amount. When the weight of the clothes to be washed is large, the injection adjustment coefficient allows for a second amount of detergent that better matches the actual weight of the clothes, as well as an optimal water ratio, ensuring the normal operation of the garment processing equipment and achieving superior stain removal.

[0044] The relationship between the injection adjustment factor and the weight of the laundry can be pre-configured and stored in the memory of the laundry processing equipment or in the cloud. When the relationship between the injection adjustment factor and the weight of the laundry is stored in the cloud, the laundry processing equipment can communicate with the cloud to obtain the relationship between the injection adjustment factor and the weight of the laundry from the cloud.

[0045] The relationship between the injection adjustment coefficient and the weight of the laundry can be linear or nonlinear. This relationship can be determined through multiple experimental data sets or based on large-scale data analysis.

[0046] In practice, the washing procedure further includes a main wash stage, which follows the water filling stage. The main wash stage primarily involves washing the clothes to remove stains.

[0047] In some embodiments, during the main wash phase, the drum of the washing tub rotates at a preset speed and rhythm to perform a washing operation on the clothes to be washed. This washing operation includes circulating the washing water within the washing tub and / or heating the washing water to a target temperature. Circulating the washing water within the washing tub refers to drawing washing water from the washing tub and spraying the drawn water back onto the clothes to be washed in the washing tub.

[0048] In practice, the garment processing equipment can be equipped with a water pump (such as a circulating pump) and a spraying device. The water pump removes the washing water from the washing tub, and the spraying device then sprays the extracted water back onto the clothes to be washed in the tub. By circulating the washing water, the optimal concentration of detergent can more thoroughly penetrate the stains on the clothes, allowing the stains to be dissolved more effectively and improving the stain removal effect.

[0049] In some embodiments, when the washing water in the washing tub is circulated, at least during the stage of spraying the extracted washing water back onto the clothes to be washed in the washing tub, the rotation speed of the drum is greater than or equal to a first rotation speed, which is greater than or equal to 60 revolutions per minute and less than or equal to 300 revolutions per minute. Typically, when the drum rotation speed is greater than or equal to 60 revolutions per minute, the clothes to be washed adhere to the drum wall under centrifugal force. The washing water absorbed by the clothes is thrown out of the clothes under centrifugal force. At this time, the detergent sprayed back into the drum is sprayed towards the drum wall under centrifugal force, thus being evenly sprayed onto the clothes to be washed and reabsorbed. This process is repeated, achieving multiple absorption and re-exposure of the optimal concentration of detergent by the clothes, further improving the uniformity and thoroughness of the detergent's penetration of stains on the clothes and enhancing the stain removal effect.

[0050] Furthermore, the first rotational speed is greater than or equal to 100 rpm and less than or equal to 180 rpm. At a higher rotational speed, the washing water absorbed by the clothes to be washed is more easily spun out, which can improve the efficiency of washing water being spun out of the clothes to be washed, and thus increase the number of times washing water is spun out and absorbed per unit time, so as to further improve the uniformity and fullness of the detergent in the washing water in wetting the stains on the clothes, and improve the stain removal effect.

[0051] The washing tub's drum rotates at a preset speed and rhythm to perform the washing operation on the clothes to be washed. This can be done by the drum rotating intermittently at a first rotational speed, or by alternating between a first rotational speed and a speed lower than the first rotational speed. The drum can rotate continuously or intermittently in the forward direction, continuously or intermittently in the reverse direction, or intermittently alternating between forward and reverse rotation. The preset speed and rhythm of the drum's rotation can be configured according to the specific stages of the washing process.

[0052] It should be noted that when performing the washing water circulation operation, the drum speed can be set to the first rotation speed. This combination of washing water circulation and high-speed drum rotation ensures optimal stain removal. It is understandable that during the washing water circulation operation, the drum can also rotate at a lower speed than the first rotation speed.

[0053] In practice, the liquid level in the washing tub is detected at least when the washing water in the washing tub is circulated.

[0054] In some implementations, the liquid level in the washing tub can be checked at the start or after water filling.

[0055] The step of circulating the washing water in the washing tub is performed when the liquid level in the washing tub is greater than or equal to a preset first liquid level. The first liquid level is configured based on the safe liquid level height of the garment processing equipment, and is greater than or equal to the safe liquid level height. The safe liquid level height refers to the minimum liquid level required for the garment processing equipment to operate normally. This minimum liquid level height must at least ensure that the washing water in the drum adequately wets the garments, and for equipment with a heating function, it must prevent dry burning. Correspondingly, when the liquid level in the washing tub is less than the first liquid level height, the washing water circulation operation is not initiated.

[0056] In some embodiments, during the process of drawing washing water from the washing tub, the liquid level in the washing tub meets the following condition: the liquid level in the washing tub is greater than or equal to a second liquid level, and the second liquid level is greater than or equal to the first liquid level. That is, during the washing water circulation operation, the liquid level in the washing tub is always greater than or equal to the second liquid level to meet the immersion requirements of the clothes during the washing water circulation process and to prevent insufficient washing water in the drum from preventing the clothes from coming into contact with the washing water.

[0057] In some non-limiting embodiments, the first liquid level height is equal to the second liquid level height.

[0058] In some non-limiting embodiments, when drawing wash water from the washing tub, the liquid level in the washing tub is monitored; when the liquid level in the washing tub is lower than the second liquid level, the circulation operation of the wash water in the washing tub is stopped. Normally, after the clothes to be washed are fully soaked, the clothes will absorb a corresponding amount of wash water, which will cause the water in the washing tub (i.e., the water outside the clothes) to decrease, for example, the water in the washing tub may decrease to below the second liquid level. During the clothes processing, malfunctions may also occur, such as water injection failures or leaks, causing the liquid level in the washing tub to be lower than the second liquid level. When the liquid level in the washing tub is lower than the second liquid level, stopping the circulation operation of the wash water in the washing tub ensures the normal operation of the clothes processing equipment.

[0059] In some other non-limiting embodiments, when drawing washing water from the washing tub, the liquid level in the washing tub is monitored; if the liquid level in the washing tub is always greater than or equal to the second liquid level, but the duration of water circulation is equal to the set first duration, then the circulation operation of the washing water in the washing tub is stopped.

[0060] In some embodiments, heating the washing water to the target temperature can be done by directly heating it to the target temperature.

[0061] In other embodiments, the washing water can be heated to the target temperature step by step according to a preset temperature gradient, from low to high. Specifically, the washing water is heated in stages according to a preset temperature gradient, from low to high. After reaching the temperature corresponding to each temperature gradient, it is maintained for a certain period of time until the washing water temperature reaches the target temperature. The temperatures corresponding to each temperature gradient are determined based on preset removal temperatures for various stain types. Because the temperature corresponding to each stain type is maintained for a corresponding duration, the detergent can act on the stains at a more suitable temperature, resulting in better removal of each stain type. Multiple stain types can be removed in a single wash, improving the overall stain removal effect.

[0062] In practice, the specific duration of temperature maintenance for each temperature gradient can be the same or different. The optimal maintenance duration for various stain types at the optimal removal temperature can be used as the specific duration of temperature maintenance for that temperature gradient. Alternatively, the temperature and corresponding maintenance duration for each temperature gradient can be determined based on the temperature range of activity and the temperature range at which the substances in the detergent used to remove various types of stains lose their activity.

[0063] In some non-limiting embodiments, stain types may include water-soluble stains, oil stains, organic stains, and bacterial stains. For example, water-soluble stains may be caused by anthocyanins, such as those from strawberries or cherries, and the temperature gradient corresponding to these water-soluble stains can be less than or equal to 30 degrees Celsius. Oil stains may be caused by edible oil, butter, lipstick, cosmetics, etc., and the temperature gradient corresponding to these oil stains can be between 40 and 60 degrees Celsius. Organic stains mainly include stains caused by two types of substances: iron pigments and proteins, such as blood stains and milk stains, and the temperature gradient corresponding to these organic stains can be less than or equal to 30 degrees Celsius. Bacterial stains may be caused by mold, and the temperature gradient corresponding to these bacterial stains can be greater than or equal to 60 degrees Celsius.

[0064] Understandably, depending on the criteria used to classify stains, there can be other ways to classify stains, and the temperature gradients configured under different classification methods can correspond to different temperatures.

[0065] The target temperature is greater than or equal to 40 degrees Celsius, and the washing time, after heating the washing water to the target temperature and maintaining the target temperature while performing the washing operation, is greater than or equal to 18 minutes. This allows the detergent to fully exert its activity within an optimal temperature range, effectively breaking down stains and improving stain removal efficiency.

[0066] Before and / or after heating the washing water to the target temperature, the washing water in the washing tub is circulated.

[0067] In some embodiments, the washing water is not circulated while it is being heated to the target temperature. That is, the heating and circulation times of the washing water do not overlap.

[0068] During the process of heating the washing water to the target temperature, the drum may not rotate, or the drum may rotate at a low speed. For example, rotating at a low speed may mean operating at a speed lower than a first rotational speed.

[0069] If the washing water in the washing tub is circulated both before and after heating the washing water to the target temperature, the duration of the washing water circulation operation performed before heating the washing water to the target temperature is less than the duration of the washing water circulation operation performed after heating the washing water to the target temperature.

[0070] In some embodiments, the duration of the washing water circulation operation performed before heating the washing water to the target temperature can be 2 to 3 minutes.

[0071] In some embodiments, the duration of the washing water circulation operation performed after heating the washing water to the target temperature is greater than or equal to 18 minutes. For example, the duration of the washing water circulation operation performed after heating the washing water to the target temperature is 20 minutes.

[0072] The washing program further includes a spin-drying stage, wherein the spin-drying stage follows the main washing stage, and during the spin-drying stage, the drum of the washing tub accelerates to a second rotation speed and operates at the second rotation speed for a preset time, wherein the main washing stage follows the water injection stage.

[0073] In some embodiments, the second rotational speed is less than or equal to 1000 revolutions per minute. This allows for the efficient dehydration of the clothes while minimizing wear and tear on the garments, thus protecting them.

[0074] In some embodiments, the preset time for operation at the second rotation speed is less than or equal to 3 minutes. While maintaining good dehydration performance, shortening the dehydration time to less than or equal to 3 minutes can reduce wear and tear on clothing at high rotation speeds and protect the garments.

[0075] In some non-limiting embodiments, the preset time for operation at the second rotational speed is 1 minute.

[0076] It should be noted that the washing program may also include a rinsing stage, which follows the main wash stage. During the rinsing stage, clean water is added to the washing tub, or a certain amount of fabric softener is added simultaneously, to wash away any residual detergent from the clothes. A spin-drying stage can be configured before and after the rinsing stage. The rinsing stage can consist of one rinse or multiple rinses.

[0077] The total washing time of the washing program is less than or equal to 60 minutes. Because the detergent is diluted with the optimal amount of water to obtain wash water that matches the optimal concentration of the detergent, the detergent's optimal stain-removing performance can be fully utilized. Therefore, the stain-removing time can be greatly shortened, such as reducing the duration of the main wash stage, and soaking is unnecessary. This significantly reduces the total washing time, improving stain-removing efficiency and enhancing the user experience while maintaining a superior stain-removing effect.

[0078] To facilitate a better understanding and implementation of this application by those skilled in the art, a specific solution of this application is described below with reference to a typical application scenario. The washing control method of the garment processing equipment may specifically include the following steps:

[0079] Step 201: Select the stain removal program.

[0080] Step 202, program activation.

[0081] Step 203: Inject a measured amount of detergent.

[0082] Step 204: Inject the optimal water volume that best matches the amount of detergent.

[0083] Steps 203 and 204 can be executed synchronously or asynchronously, or step 204 can be executed first and step 203 can be executed during the execution of step 204.

[0084] Step 205: Perform a washing water circulation operation to allow the detergent to be sprayed deep into the clothes.

[0085] Step 206: The drum rotates at high speed to evenly distribute the clothes to be washed, allowing the detergent to work fully.

[0086] Steps 205 and 206 are optional and can be configured to be executed as needed. Steps 205 and 206 can be executed separately, meaning their execution times do not overlap; or, step 206 can be executed during the execution of step 205, meaning their execution times can at least partially overlap.

[0087] Step 207: Turn on the heating of the washing water.

[0088] Step 208: Heat to the optimal target temperature and maintain the heating effect to keep the target temperature maintained for a certain period of time.

[0089] Step 209: Perform the washing water circulation operation.

[0090] Step 210: The drum rotates at high speed to evenly distribute the clothes to be washed, allowing the detergent to work fully.

[0091] Steps 209 and 210 can be executed separately, meaning the execution times of the two steps do not overlap; or, step 210 can also be executed during the execution of step 209, meaning the execution times of the two steps can at least partially overlap.

[0092] Step 211: Run the program normally until it ends.

[0093] In steps 206 and 210, the high-speed rotation of the drum means that the drum rotates at a first speed, which is greater than or equal to 60 revolutions per minute and less than or equal to 300 revolutions per minute.

[0094] It should be noted that the specific implementation schemes of steps 201 to 211 above are described in the above embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0095] This application also provides a washing control device for a garment processing equipment. The garment processing equipment includes: an execution unit for starting a washing program in response to a stain removal washing start command. The washing program includes: a water injection stage, injecting a corresponding amount of detergent and an optimal water ratio into the washing tub of the garment processing equipment according to the amount of clothes to be washed. The optimal water ratio is determined based on a preset optimal detergent concentration and the amount of detergent injected.
