[0050] Example 1

[0051] This utility model embodiment provides a tubular assembly for a garment care device 1, combined with... Figures 1-5 As shown, it includes:

[0052] Outer cylinder 10; inner cylinder 20;

[0053] At least one triaxial sensing device 30 is disposed in the inner cylinder 20;

[0054] A power supply device 40 is provided, one end of which is electrically connected to the triaxial sensing device 30 to maintain power supply to the triaxial sensing device 30 during the rotation of the inner drum 20. In some embodiments, the power supply device 40 adopts the device for powering the inside of a drum washing machine as described in the invention patent application number 2024102367589, to power the triaxial sensing device 30. In other embodiments, the power supply device 40 can also be configured as a battery, which is connected to the triaxial sensing device 30 to directly power it. The triaxial sensing device 30 transmits signals via Bluetooth or wireless signals. The battery can be installed on the inner drum 20 and positioned close to the triaxial sensing device 30 so that it rotates with the inner drum 20 along with the triaxial sensor device 30.

[0055] During the washing process, the triaxial sensing device 30 rotates with the inner drum 20 to obtain motion feedback of the inner drum 20 through the sensing function of the triaxial sensing device 30.

[0056] This embodiment, by arranging a three-axis sensor 30 on the inner drum 20, can identify the actual operating status of the inner drum 20 with high precision and convenience, including but not limited to position, speed, number of rotations, and motion rhythm, effectively improving the accuracy and reliability of monitoring, helping the washing machine to perform more precise control, optimizing the washing effect of clothes, and enhancing the user experience.

[0057] The triaxial sensing device 30 incorporates triaxial sensors, including a triaxial accelerometer, a triaxial gyroscope, and a triaxial magnetometer. These three types of sensors can be decomposed into data in the X, Y, and Z directions in a spatial coordinate system. The triaxial accelerometer can sense acceleration in any direction, obtaining the result by measuring the force on the component along a certain axis, which is expressed as the magnitude and direction of the axial acceleration (X, Y, Z). The triaxial gyroscope determines the current motion state of the component (forward, backward, left, right, up, down) by measuring its own rotational motion (angular velocity). The triaxial magnetometer provides data on the magnetic fields experienced by the component along the X, Y, and Z axes, and calculates the current orientation of the component based on the relevant data.

[0058] Depending on the different triaxial sensors (triaxial accelerometer, triaxial gyroscope, and triaxial magnetometer) built into the triaxial sensing device 30, in some embodiments, it can be a triaxial sensor; in some embodiments, it can be a six-axis sensor composed of a combination of a triaxial accelerometer and a triaxial gyroscope to measure the angular rate and acceleration of the component in three-dimensional space, providing more comprehensive motion data; in still other embodiments, it can be a nine-axis sensor composed of a combination of a triaxial accelerometer, a triaxial gyroscope, and a triaxial magnetometer, which can not only provide data on acceleration and rotation, but also locate the orientation through the magnetometer; meeting the high-precision measurement needs of different application scenarios.

[0059] Specifically, in this embodiment, the speed and / or acceleration of the inner cylinder 20 are sensed by the triaxial sensing device 30 to determine the rotation amplitude and / or vibration amount of the inner cylinder 20.

[0060] Furthermore, the triaxial sensing device 30 is disposed on the inner cylinder sidewall 201 of the inner cylinder 20; wherein, the triaxial sensing device 30 can be configured as follows: Figure 3 As shown in (a), it is installed on the inner wall of the inner cylinder, or it can be installed as shown in (a). Figure 3 (b) is provided on the outer wall of the inner cylinder.

[0061] In some embodiments, a triaxial sensing device 30 is provided on the inner cylinder sidewall 201; in other preferred embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, the inner cylinder sidewall 201 is provided with multiple triaxial sensing devices 30 for comprehensive monitoring, which can more accurately obtain the actual operating status of the inner cylinder 20 and reduce the impact of a single sensor failure on the entire monitoring system.

[0062] Furthermore, multiple triaxial sensing devices 30 are evenly distributed on the inner cylinder sidewall 201, effectively optimizing the monitoring range of the triaxial sensing devices 30, improving the monitoring capability of the entire monitoring system, and enhancing the accuracy and reliability of the detection data.

[0063] Furthermore, the triaxial sensing device 30 is detachably installed on the inner cylinder sidewall 201; on the one hand, the simple and convenient installation method can facilitate future replacement, maintenance and upgrades; on the other hand, the detachable triaxial sensing device 30 can be quickly adjusted according to different application scenarios to meet specific monitoring needs.

[0064] It should be understood that the triaxial sensing device 30 can be placed at the location to be detected according to actual monitoring needs, including but not limited to the inner cylinder 20, tripod 50, lifting rib 21, and other locations that need to be detected.

[0065] In some embodiments, the triaxial sensing device 30 may be disposed close to the opening of the inner cylinder 20; in some preferred embodiments, due to the front end side of the inner cylinder 20 (e.g. Figure 2 The vibration at the opening of the inner cylinder 20 shown is greater than that at the rear end of the inner cylinder 20 (e.g., at the opening of the inner cylinder 20). Figure 2 The vibration at the bottom 202 of the inner cylinder 20 is large. In order to minimize the impact of the vibration of the inner cylinder 20 on the triaxial sensing device 30, the triaxial sensing device 30 is set close to the bottom 202 of the inner cylinder 20.

[0068] outer cylinder 10;

[0069] Inner cylinder 20, wherein the inner cylinder 20 is provided with at least one lifting rib 21;

[0070] At least one triaxial sensing device 30 is disposed within the lifting rib 21;

[0071] A power supply device 40 is provided, one end of which is electrically connected to the triaxial sensing device 30 to maintain power supply to the triaxial sensing device 30 during the rotation of the inner drum 20. In some embodiments, the power supply device 40 adopts the device for powering the inside of a drum washing machine as described in the invention patent application number 2024102367589, to power the triaxial sensing device 30. In other embodiments, the power supply device 40 can also be configured as a battery, which is connected to the triaxial sensing device 30 to directly power it. The triaxial sensing device 30 transmits signals via Bluetooth or wireless signals. The battery can be installed on the inner drum 20 and positioned close to the triaxial sensing device 30 so that it rotates with the inner drum 20 along with the triaxial sensor device 30.

[0072] During the washing process, the triaxial sensing device 30 rotates with the inner drum 20 to obtain motion feedback of the inner drum 20 through the sensing function of the triaxial sensing device 30.

[0073] Specifically, in this embodiment, the speed and / or acceleration of the inner cylinder 20 are sensed by the triaxial sensing device 30 to determine the rotation amplitude and / or vibration amount of the inner cylinder 20.

[0074] In this embodiment, by arranging a triaxial sensor 30 within the lifting ribs 21 of the inner drum 20, the actual operating state of the inner drum 20 can be identified with high precision and convenience, including but not limited to position, speed, number of rotations, and rhythm of motion. This effectively improves the accuracy and reliability of monitoring, helps the washing machine to perform more precise control, optimizes the washing effect of clothes, and enhances the user experience. On the other hand, it makes reasonable use of the internal space of the lifting ribs 21, optimizes the overall structure, and avoids the arrangement of the triaxial sensor 30 affecting the washing capacity of the inner drum.

For example, the lifting ribs 21 can be assembled with the inner cylinder side wall 201 by means of snap-fit ​​or threaded connection, which is simple and convenient to install and provides convenience for the replacement, maintenance and upgrading of the triaxial sensing device 30 in the future.

[0076] In some embodiments, the triaxial sensing device 30 is integrated with the lifting rib 21. Specifically, the lifting rib 21 and the triaxial sensing device 30 are combined to form a modular structure, and the user can disassemble the triaxial sensing device 30 by removing the lifting rib 21 from the inner cylinder 20.

[0077] In some preferred embodiments, the triaxial sensing device 30 and the lifting rib 21 are detachably installed; specifically, the triaxial sensing device 30 can be installed on the lifting rib 21 by means of a snap or thread connection, and the triaxial sensing device 30 can be directly removed from the lifting rib 21 for replacement and maintenance or when the lifting rib 21 is removed from the inner cylinder 20, which is simple and convenient to operate.

[0078] In some embodiments, the triaxial sensing device 30 may be disposed at one end of the lifting rib 21 near the opening 203 of the inner cylinder 20; in some preferred embodiments, since the vibration at the front end of the inner cylinder 20 is greater than the vibration at the rear end of the inner cylinder 20, in order to minimize the impact of the vibration of the inner cylinder 20 on the triaxial sensing device 30, such as Figure 2 As shown, the triaxial sensing device 30 is disposed at one end of the lifting rib 21 near the bottom 202 of the inner cylinder 20.

[0079] The specific installation location of the triaxial sensing device 30 is determined according to actual needs; for example, Figure 5 As shown, the lifting rib 21 has an installation area 211, which is used to install the triaxial sensing device 30; during installation, the triaxial sensing device 30 moves along... Figure 5 The arrow shown is inserted vertically into the installation area 311 of the lifting rib 21; in this embodiment, there are two installation areas 211, which are respectively located at both ends of the lifting rib 21.
