[0026] This application provides a clothing processing demonstration device, which refers to a clothing processing device for imitation products. Please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The clothing processing demonstration equipment includes a cabinet 10 and a display device 30.

[0027] The housing 10 is designed to mimic the shape of the outer shell of a garment processing device. In other words, from an external perspective, the outline of the housing 10 is the same as or similar to the outer shell of a finished garment processing device.

[0028] In this embodiment of the application, the garment processing equipment refers to the garment processing equipment for finished products, which is equipment that can perform functions such as garment washing and care.

[0029] It should be noted that the material of the casing 10 is not limited; it can be plastic or metal.

[0030] In some embodiments, the housing 10 can utilize the outer shell of an existing garment processing device. This eliminates the need for a separate mold for manufacturing the housing 10.

[0031] The display device 30 has a display area 30a, which refers to the part of the display device 30 used for display. For example, the display device 30 includes a screen, and the area on the screen that can be imaged is the display area 30a.

[0032] The clothing processing demonstration device also includes a circuit board assembly, which is signal-connected to the display device to enable the display area 30a to display one or more preset media files.

[0033] In this application, signal connection refers to the existence of signal interaction. The two components can interact directly or indirectly through other components. For example, in some embodiments, signal connection is achieved through circuitry. In other embodiments, signal connection can be achieved through wireless communication technologies, such as Bluetooth, WiFi (Wireless Fidelity), NFC (Near Field Communication), Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), Infrared Communication (IRC), etc., and no limitation is imposed here.

[0034] In this embodiment, the circuit board assembly can enable the display area 30a to play media files without receiving operation instructions from the operator.

[0035] These media files can be pre-stored files embedded in the circuit board assembly, or they can be downloaded from the cloud when the circuit board assembly is connected to the network.

[0036] Among them, at least one media file is used to display at least one of the functions, principles, advantages, and operating parameters of the garment processing equipment (finished garment processing equipment).

[0037] For example, when displaying media files, the advantages of blue oxygen color protection wash, wool wash, steam care, and 6D airflow drying can be introduced below.

[0038] Blue Oxygen Color Protection Wash: Natural blue oxygen factor makes white clothes whiter and colored clothes more vibrant. Prevents color bleeding when washing with other clothes. Deeply cleans and removes stains from fibers. Deeply sterilizes with a sterilization rate of 99.99%. Antibacterial effect in the inner drum for 7 days for long-lasting cleanliness.

[0039] Wool Wash: Low temperature and low speed, wool will not deform, five water flow, special wool wash, protects delicate wool fibers, penetrates deep into the fibers, removes stains without worry, authoritative wool blue label certification, specializing in wool washing and care problems.

[0040] Steam care: Equipped with a professional full frequency conversion system, it operates quietly at 45 decibels, without disturbing family members. It can quickly dry all the family's clothes in 59 minutes, and stops drying as soon as the clothes are dry. It effectively filters out hair and lint, smooths out clothes, and eliminates wrinkles. It also features UV sterilization and mite removal.

[0041] 6D Airflow Drying: Inspired by rotors, powerful airflow, innovative dual-channel design, all-around airflow, quickly dries surface moisture, 5 times the wind pressure, powerful air delivery, penetrates fibers for thorough drying, dual-channel switching, rhythmic airflow, biomimetic human beating, making down fluffier.

[0042] The garment processing demonstration device of this application embodiment is designed for easy display in venues such as exhibitions and retail stores. The exterior of the housing 10 is identical or similar to the exterior of the garment processing equipment. Furthermore, since it does not require the inclusion of components such as the cylindrical assembly, the garment processing demonstration device is relatively lightweight, easy to transport, and cost-effective. In addition, relevant information about the garment processing equipment can be actively and automatically displayed through the display area 30a, allowing visitors to intuitively understand the equipment's information. This facilitates demonstrations to visitors and reduces the workload of sales staff.

[0043] The display format of media files is not limited. For example, in some implementations, media files include at least one of presentation videos, presentation images, and presentation text.

[0044] Specifically, in embodiments where the media file includes a demonstration video, the demonstration video can display the principles, functions, duration, advantages, etc. of the clothing processing procedure, providing a better visual experience and a more intuitive viewing experience.

[0045] In embodiments where the media file includes presentation images, the presentation images can be switched and played one by one.

[0046] In embodiments where the media file includes presentation text, parameters, duration, etc., may be displayed.

[0047] Understandably, the display device 30 may use at least one of the following: demonstration video, demonstration image, or demonstration text, to display at least one of the functions, principles, advantages, and operating parameters of the garment processing equipment.

[0048] For example, the aforementioned one or more media files include at least one clothing processing media file corresponding to a clothing processing mode. The aforementioned clothing processing media file refers to visual information about clothing processing modes (such as washing, drying, and spin-drying) displayed according to certain rules. Such visual information can be used to demonstrate to viewers the functions of clothing processing equipment, the principles of clothing processing, and the advantages of clothing processing equipment.

[0049] Each garment processing mode has a corresponding garment processing media file, and the same garment processing mode can correspond to one or more garment processing media files.

[0050] Different clothing processing modes require different clothing processing media files.

[0051] Garment processing mode refers to the main washing and care program of the garment processing equipment. For example, garment processing modes include blue oxygen color protection wash, wool wash, steam care, 6D airflow drying, etc.

[0052] In one embodiment, the display device 30 uses a display screen, such as an LCD (liquid crystal display) or an OLED (organic light-emitting diode).

[0053] In some embodiments, one or more of the aforementioned media files include screen saver media files. For example, when the device is powered on or when an external power source is connected, the circuit board assembly may cause the display area 30a to display the screen saver media files.

[0054] "Powering on" refers to the entire garment processing demonstration device being powered on (not simply being connected to an external power source). For example, the garment processing demonstration device includes a power switch, which can be a button or a knob. The garment processing demonstration device is connected to an external power source (such as AC mains power) by plugging it into a socket. Powering on is achieved by operating the power switch. In other words, when the power switch is operated, the entire device powers on, and the display area 30a begins displaying the media saver file.

[0055] The clothing processing demonstration device being connected to an external power source means that it obtains power from an external power source. In other words, in some embodiments, when plugged into a socket, the display device 30 displays the media saver file regardless of whether the power switch is operated.

[0056] Understandably, before the garment processing demonstration device is powered on or before the device is connected to an external power source, the display area 30a is in a black screen state. After the device is powered on or connected to an external power source, the display area 30a displays the display saver media file, which can also be used to remind the user that the garment processing demonstration device is currently connected to an external power source.

[0057] In some embodiments, there are multiple media files, which are displayed sequentially or randomly in the display area. Sequential display can involve cyclically displaying a portion of the multiple media files or cyclically displaying all the media files.

[0058] In some implementations, the garment handling demonstration device also includes a speaker, which is signal-connected to a circuit board assembly. The circuit board assembly is used to control the speaker to play audio adapted to the current media file.

[0059] In this embodiment, visitors can hear corresponding audio while viewing the content displayed on the display device 30, further enhancing their experience.

[0060] The audio can be stored in the circuit board assembly or in the cloud.

[0061] It should be noted that the position of the display device 30 relative to the housing 10 is not limited. For example, it can be inside the housing 10 or outside the housing 10, as long as it can be seen by visitors.

[0062] Specifically, in some embodiments, the housing 10 includes a front panel 12, a rear panel, two side panels 11, and a top panel 14. The housing 10 may or may not have a bottom panel.

[0063] Two side panels 11 are arranged at intervals along the left-right direction of the housing 10. The front, back, and rear panels are arranged at intervals along the front-rear direction. The top panel 14 connects the top of the front panel 12, the top of the rear panel, and the top of the two side panels 11.

[0064] In some embodiments, the display area 30a of the display device 30 is located on the front surface of the front panel 12. For example, the display device 30 can be a flexible screen that is attached to the front surface of the front panel 12 for aesthetic purposes. In this embodiment, the front panel 12 does not need to have an opening for the display area 30a.

[0065] In some embodiments, the front panel 12 has an opening 10a through which the display area 30a is displayed. In this embodiment, the display device 30 may be located in the opening 10a or inside the housing 10.

[0066] The shape of the opening 10a is not limited, but the edge of the opening 10a is at least partially curved. For example, the opening 10a can be circular, semi-circular, or other shapes.

[0067] The opening 10a can be a blind hole (i.e., the opening 10a does not penetrate the front panel 12) or a through hole (i.e., the opening 10a penetrates the front panel 12).

[0068] In some embodiments, the opening 10a may simulate the shape of the garment loading / unloading opening of a garment processing device for finished products.

[0069] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 The garment handling demonstration device includes a door 20, which is rotatably connected to the housing 10 to open or close the opening 10a.

[0070] In other embodiments, since actual washing and care of the clothes is not required, please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The opening 10a is exposed to the external environment of the garment processing demonstration device. In other words, the opening 10a is always exposed to the external environment, and there are no structural components to block the outside of the opening 10a, i.e., there is no door to block it (i.e., the garment processing demonstration device does not have a door at the opening 10a for opening or closing). As a result, the garment processing demonstration device has no door in appearance, which makes the structure of the garment processing demonstration device simpler, lighter, and easier to transport, and can further reduce costs.

[0071] In other embodiments, the garment handling demonstration device includes a cover that covers the opening 10a, and the portion covering the opening 10a is at least partially translucent. The cover prevents users or other structures from directly touching the display area 30a, thus protecting the display area 30a. Furthermore, the cover allows light transmission in the area to be displayed, enabling viewers to view the content displayed in the display area 30a through the cover. It should be noted that the cover is not a door; that is, the garment handling demonstration device does not have a door at the opening 10a for opening or closing. Of course, when the cover covers the edge of the opening 10a, it also prevents the edge of the opening 10a from scratching people.

[0072] The part of the cover located outside the display area 30a can be light-transmitting; of course, it can also be light-shielded by means of coating, screen printing, etc.

[0073] For example, the cover is in the form of a plate or a film, and is stacked on the front surface of the front panel 12. The outline shape of the cover can be made into any desired shape.

[0074] In some embodiments, the covering portion can be a flexible membrane or a rigid plate. A flexible membrane refers to a membrane that can be bent, with a thickness of 0.1 mm to 1 mm, or other thicknesses. The flexible membrane can be PVC (polyvinyl chloride) film, PE (polyethylene) film, TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) film, EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer) film, etc.

[0075] Rigid panels refer to rigid structures, such as glass panels and rigid plastic panels.

[0076] In some embodiments, the projection of the opening 10a onto the plane containing the display area 30a of the display device 30 does not exceed the projection of the display area 30a. In this embodiment, the display area 30a can completely overlap with the opening 10a, that is, the outline of the display area 30a coincides with the outline of the opening 10a. Of course, the display area 30a and the opening 10a can also partially overlap, with the other part not overlapping, that is, in the projection onto the plane containing the display area 30a, part of the projection of the display area 30a is within the range of the opening 10a, and part of the projection is outside the range of the opening 10a.

[0077] In this embodiment, the opening 10a can be fully displayed, making full use of the size of the opening 10a, resulting in a large display area and better display effect.

[0078] In some embodiments, the display device 30 includes a screen, which is circular or rectangular. Circular or rectangular screens are standard shapes, and their manufacturing processes are relatively mature and simple, which can effectively reduce costs.

[0079] In the description of this application, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., refer to specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment or example, which are included in at least one embodiment or example of the embodiments of this application. In this application, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. Furthermore, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine different embodiments or examples described in this application, as well as features of different embodiments or examples.

[0080] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this application and are not intended to limit the scope of this application.
