[0082] It should be explained here that the constant mode refers to that the light-emitting part 21 continuously emits light with balanced brightness, the breathing mode refers to that the light-emitting part 21 emits dynamic light, the light dynamically cycles between full brightness and half brightness, the galloping mode refers to that the light-emitting part 21 emits a dynamic light that gradually brightens and then darkens, and the light dynamically cycles between dark, full brightness, half brightness, and off, and the flashing mode refers to that the light-emitting part 21 emits dynamic cycle light that is off, bright, and off.

[0083] In different light-emitting modes, the frequency of the dynamic cycle light is different, so that the user can distinguish different light-emitting modes and further distinguish the operation information of the corresponding clothes processing device 1 after observing the light signal.

[0084] In some embodiments of the present application, the state information includes a standby state, an operation state, and an error state, and the light-emitting part 21 has different light-emitting modes or emits different light-emitting colors when the clothes processing device 1 is in different states, so as to facilitate the user to distinguish the light-emitting information to judge the current state of the clothes processing device 1 and obtain the corresponding operation information of the clothes processing device 1, and further facilitate the next operation.

[0085] In some examples, when the clothes processing device 1 is in the standby state, the light-emitting information is in the constant mode, when the clothes processing device 1 is in the operation state, the light-emitting information is in the breathing mode, and when the clothes processing device 1 is in the error state, the light-emitting information is in the flashing mode. In this way, the user can obtain the state of the clothes processing device 1 by distinguishing different light-emitting information, and further facilitate the user to perform the next operation on the clothes processing device 1.

[0086] When the light emitting part 21 is in different light emitting modes, the light emitting part 21 can emit light rays of the same color or different colors, that is, the user can distinguish the current state of the clothes processing device 1 through different light emitting modes or through different light emitting modes and light ray colors.

[0087] For example, when the light emitting part 21 is in different light emitting modes, the light emitting part 21 emits light rays of the same color, and in the constant light mode, the light emitting part 21 emits warm orange light rays. In the breathing mode, the light emitting part 21 emits dynamic warm color-changing light rays, and the warm yellow light rays are dynamically cycled between full brightness and half brightness.

[0088] Further, the panel assembly 100 further comprises a second panel 30 fixed to the face frame 15, the second panel 30 being a control panel 10 of the clothes processing device 1, and the second panel 30 is provided with a display area 31 and an operation part 32. When the clothes processing device 1 is in different working states, the color of the number displayed at the display area 31 is different, and in the current state, if the clothes processing device 1 has an error, for example, the problem of being unable to fill water occurs, the light emitting part 21 is in the flickering mode, at this time, the light emitting part 21 emits light rays of the same color as the number at the display area 31, so as to facilitate the user to distinguish the working state of the clothes processing device 1 when the clothes processing device 1 has an error, and at the same time, the display harmony is improved.

[0089] In some examples, when the light emitting part 21 is in different light emitting modes, the light emitting part 21 emits light rays of the same color, for example, when the clothes processing device 1 is in the standby state, the light emitting part 21 emits green light rays, when the clothes processing device 1 is in the running state, the light emitting part 21 emits blue light rays, and when the clothes processing device 1 is in the error state, the light emitting part 21 emits red light rays. In this way, the user can distinguish the state of the clothes processing device 1 through different colors of light rays, and then facilitate the user to perform the next operation on the clothes processing device 1.

[0090] Of course, the clothes processing device 1 can also include other states, for example, when the clothes processing device 1 is in the offline state, the light emitting part 21 emits light emitting information in the galloping mode, and / or the light emitting part 21 emits orange or white light rays, which will not be described in detail here.

[0091] In some embodiments of the utility model, the state information includes a detergent liquid shortage, a filter screen to be cleaned, and a door body to be closed. When the clothes processing device 1 needs to transmit different information to the user, the light emitting part 21 is in different modes or emits different light emitting colors, so as to facilitate the user to distinguish the operation to be performed on the clothes processing device 1 through the light emitting information, and facilitate the user to timely add a detergent, clean or replace a filter screen, and close a door body through the light emitting information.
