Detailed Implementation

[0015] As smart homes become increasingly prevalent in daily life, laundry equipment such as washing machines has also become an important part of lifestyle. During the use of laundry equipment, vibrations are generated during operation. If the vibrations are excessive, the equipment may shift, which can damage the equipment itself, disrupt the installation environment, and even create safety hazards.

[0016] The reason for this is that the drums in garment processing equipment are mostly roller structures, which are rotatable via a drive unit. The drive unit, as the driving source for the drum, drives the drum to rotate synchronously when it is in operation, thereby completing the preset garment processing program. However, if the drive unit rotates too fast, it will cause vibration in the garment processing equipment. The drive unit also needs a certain rotational speed to complete the garment processing program required by the equipment.

[0017] While vibrations caused by the drive components at normal rotation speeds are acceptable for garment processing equipment, excessively high drive speeds can lead to several issues. Firstly, the excessive rotation of the drum can cause it to shift, potentially resulting in collisions with the equipment's casing and other components during prolonged use, causing damage. Secondly, it could cause the garment processing equipment to displace. If the equipment is of a certain height, a fall from its installation location could damage not only the equipment itself but also the surrounding environment, potentially creating safety hazards.

[0018] Based on the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides a garment processing device and its control method, which aims to at least partially solve the technical problems of equipment displacement due to vibration, damage to the equipment itself and the installation environment, and the resulting safety hazards.

[0019] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the design concept of this application is: during equipment operation, the displacement of the equipment is acquired, and the rotation speed of the drive component is controlled according to the acquired equipment displacement to adjust the rotation speed of the cylinder, thereby adjusting the current displacement of the equipment, so as to improve the displacement phenomenon caused by vibration, protect the equipment body and the installation environment of the equipment, and improve safety.

Figure 3 for Figure 2 A structural diagram from another perspective. For example... Figure 2 as well as Figure 3As shown, the garment processing device 10 also includes a body 100, which is mounted on the base 200 and built into the housing 400. The body 100 includes a drum 101 and a drive unit 102. The drum 101 is used to hold garments, and a loading port 104 is provided on the front side of the drum 101.

An openable door 105 is also provided on the front side of the body 100 to open and close the loading port 104. The drive unit 102 is located on the rear side of the drum 101 to drive the inner drum of the drum 101 to rotate and execute the programs required by the garment processing device, such as a spin-drying program or a washing program. It is understood that the door 105 may also be coupled to the housing 400 instead of the body 100, and this application does not limit this.

The central axes of the two or more drum bodies 101 are arranged side by side or intersecting. When the garment handling device includes two drum bodies 101, the two drum bodies 101 are respectively defined as the first drum body 1011 and the second drum body 1012. In another embodiment, only one drum body 101 may be provided, and this drum body 101 is also equipped with a drive member 102 to drive the drum body 101 to rotate and execute the washing program required by the garment handling device.

[0024] Combination Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 Two adjacent cylinders 101 can be connected by a connecting mechanism 106 to form a whole, thereby reducing the vibration of the cylinders 101 to a certain extent. In one embodiment, the connecting mechanism 106 can reuse the drying module that performs the drying process, or it can be other types of connecting mechanisms, such as a block structure connected between two adjacent cylinders 101, etc. This application does not limit this.

[0025] Combination Figure 2 as well as Figure 3 The base 200 of the garment processing equipment serves as the carrier for the garment processing equipment. The main body 100 is assembled on the top of the base 200. At least part of the bottom surface of the base 200 is a flat structure to facilitate the placement of the garment processing equipment in the usage environment.

[0026] Combination Figure 2 as well as Figure 3According to one embodiment of this application, a counterweight 500 may also be provided on the top of the base 200. The counterweight 500 may be extended on the top of the base 200 to increase the weight of the base 200 and the entire device, thereby improving the vibration displacement of the device.

[0027] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a garment processing device according to another embodiment. Figure 5 for Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of the garment processing equipment. (Combined with...) Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 In another embodiment, the garment processing device differs from the garment processing device in the above embodiment in that: in this embodiment, multiple cylinders 101 are stacked from top to bottom, adjacent cylinders 101 are rigidly connected, and the lower cylinder 101 is rigidly connected to the base 200.

[0028] According to one embodiment of this application, the base 200 and the cylinder 101 of the garment processing equipment are rigidly connected. When the equipment vibrates and shifts, the base 200 and the body 100 vibrate synchronously. Now, by way of the appendix... Figure 6 - Appendix Figure 9 The specific details of the rigid connection between the base 200 and the cylinder 101 of the body 100 are further described.

[0029] Figure 6 for Figure 2 A structural diagram of the base in the diagram. Figure 7 for Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the organism's structure. Combined with... Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 In one embodiment, a support member 201 is provided at the top of the base 200, and a connector 107 is provided at the bottom of the cylinder 101. The connector 107 and the support member 201 are rigidly connected in a detachable manner by screws or other components to achieve a rigid connection between the base 200 and the cylinder 101. In another embodiment, the connector 107 and the support member 201 can also be integrally formed, or the connector 107 and the support member 201 can be fixedly connected by welding or other methods to achieve a rigid connection between the connector 107 and the support member 201.

[0030] Combination Figure 6 as well as Figure 7In one embodiment, multiple support members 201 are spaced apart on the top of the base 200, and multiple connectors 107 are spaced apart on the bottom of the cylinder 101. Each connector 107 corresponds to one support member 201, and the connector 107 is rigidly connected to the corresponding support member 201. This allows the support member 201 to support and fix the corresponding connector 107, thus fixing the cylinder 101 and the base 200 together. Consequently, the machine body 100 and the base 200 are rigidly fixedly connected, and the machine body 100 and the base 200 vibrate synchronously. In another embodiment, two or more connectors 107 correspond to the same support member 201, and each connector 107 is rigidly connected to the corresponding support member 201. This allows one support member 201 to support multiple connectors 107, also fixing the cylinder 101 and the base 200 together, and the machine body 100 and the base 200 vibrate synchronously.

[0031] Combination Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 If there are two or more cylinders 101 spaced apart, two rows of support members 201 are respectively arranged on both sides of the base 200 along its length, and a row of support members 201 is also arranged in the middle of the base 200. Each body 100 has two rows of connectors 107 at its bottom. Each row of support members 201 includes at least two support members 201. The number of support members 201 in each row can be the same or different. The connectors 107 and the corresponding support members 201 are rigidly connected to ensure that the body 100, including the cylinder 101, can be stably assembled onto the base 200. If there is only one cylinder 101, two rows of support members 201 are respectively arranged on both sides of the base 200 along its length, and are rigidly connected to the connectors 107 located at the bottom of the cylinder 101, so that the body 100, including the cylinder 101, can be stably assembled onto the base 200.

[0032] Combination Figure 6 In one embodiment, the support member 201 can be a square structure or a columnar structure, and the support member 201 can be integrally formed on the top of the base 200 to ensure the connection strength between the support member 201 and the base 200. In another embodiment, the support member 201 can also be fixedly connected to the top of the base 200 by means of screws or other components or by welding.

[0033] Combination Figure 7In one embodiment, the connector 107 can also be a square or columnar structure. The tops of the connectors 107 located in the same column can be connected by a connecting part 108. The connector 107 and the connecting part 108 can be integrally formed. The periphery of the cylinder 101 can be connected to the top surface of the connecting part 108 by screws or other components or integrally formed. In another embodiment, the periphery of the cylinder 101 can also be directly connected to the tops of two connectors 107 located in the same column.

[0034] Figure 8 This is an assembly diagram of the support component and the connecting component. Figure 9 for Figure 8 A schematic diagram of the explosion. Combined with... Figure 8 as well as Figure 9 According to one embodiment of this application, the top of the support member 201 is provided with a support recess 202, and the bottom of the connector 107 is fitted into the support recess 202 and supported by the bottom of the support recess 202. The bottom of the support recess 202 and the bottom of the connector 107 are rigidly connected by screws or other components, so that the support member 201 and the connector 107 are rigidly connected. In order to prevent rotation between the connector 107 and the support recess 202, the cross-sections of the support protrusion 203 and the connection recess 1071 can be non-circular, such as oval or square structures.

[0035] Combination Figure 8 as well as Figure 9 In one embodiment, at least a portion of the periphery of the supporting protrusion 203 and the sidewall of the supporting recess have a gap. The periphery of the supporting protrusion 203 and the sidewall of the supporting recess are connected by a supporting rib 204. The supporting protrusion 203 is located at the center of the supporting recess 202, that is, the supporting protrusion 203 and the supporting recess 202 are coaxially arranged. The supporting rib 204 is arranged in a cross shape between the supporting protrusion 203 and the supporting recess 202. The supporting rib 204 can be integrally formed with the supporting protrusion 203 and the supporting member 201 to ensure the supporting strength of the supporting rib 204. The top of the supporting rib 204 is lower than the top of the supporting protrusion 203. The bottom of the connector 107 can be supported by the supporting rib 204 to reduce the depth of the connecting recess 1071 at the bottom of the connector 107 and improve the strength of the connector 107. In another embodiment, the supporting rib 204 may not be provided between the periphery of the supporting protrusion 203 and the sidewall of the supporting recess, and the bottom of the connector 107 may abut against the bottom of the supporting recess 202 so that the connector 107 can be directly supported by the bottom of the supporting recess 202.

[0036] Figure 10 This is a structural schematic diagram of the first shock absorber. (Combined with...) Figure 10According to one embodiment of this application, in order to reduce displacement and noise caused by vibration during the operation of the garment processing equipment, a first shock absorber 600 may be provided between the support member 201 and the connector 107. The first shock absorber 600 has a certain elasticity, for example, it may be made of soft rubber, to accommodate the slight deformation caused by vibration between the cylinder 101 and the base 200, so as to reduce the vibration amplitude and reduce the noise generated when the two touch.

[0037] Combination Figure 10 The first shock absorber 600 includes a first pad 601, which is disposed on the periphery of the support protrusion 203 and abuts against the bottom of the connector 107, so that the support rib 204 is in elastic contact with the bottom of the connector 107, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the bottom of the connector 107 and the support rib 204 to a certain extent and reducing noise.

[0038] Combination Figure 10 The first shock absorber 600 also includes a second pad 602, which is wrapped around the periphery of the first pad 601. The second pad 602 is disposed between the side wall of the support recess 202 and the periphery of the bottom of the connector 107, so that the side wall of the support recess 202 and the periphery of the bottom of the connector 107 make elastic contact, thereby reducing the vibration amplitude of the bottom of the connector 107 and the support rib 204 and reducing noise.

[0039] Figure 11 for Figure 6 A structural diagram from another perspective. Combined with... Figure 11 At least a portion of the bottom surface of the base 200 is provided with a second shock absorber 700, at least a portion of which is elastic and may be made of soft rubber, to prevent the equipment from moving in the installation position to a certain extent, reduce the vibration amplitude of the equipment, and reduce noise.

[0040] Combination Figure 11 In one embodiment, a connecting frame 205 is provided on the bottom surface of the base 200. The second shock absorber 700 is embedded in the connecting frame 205 and connected to the bottom of the base 200 by screws or other components. At least a portion of the second shock absorber 700 protrudes from the connecting frame 205 to elastically contact the mounting position. In another embodiment, the second shock absorber 700 may also be bonded to the bottom surface of the base 200; or, the second shock absorber 700 may be bonded to the bottom surface of the base 200 and then fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the base 200 with screws, to further improve the reliability of the assembly of the second shock absorber 700 on the bottom surface of the base 200.

[0041] Combination Figure 11In one embodiment, the second damping member 700 is at least connected to the periphery of the bottom surface of the base 200 to ensure that the bottom of the base 200 has sufficient elastic contact with the mounting position, thereby ensuring the technical effect of reducing the vibration amplitude and noise of the equipment. In another embodiment, the second damping member 700 may also be provided in the middle of the bottom surface of the base 200, or the second damping member 700 may be provided in both the middle and periphery of the bottom surface of the base 200.

[0042] Combination Figure 11 In one embodiment, the second damping member 700 may include a plurality of spaced-apart individual structures 702. For example, the second damping member 700 may include two or more individual structures 702. The individual structures 702 may be in a straight line or a U-shape. When the individual structures 702 are in a straight line, two or more individual structures 702 are spaced apart along the length or width direction of the base 200 at the bottom of the base 200, ensuring that individual structures 702 are arranged on both sides of the bottom of the base 200 in the length direction and / or width direction. When the individual structures 702 are in a U-shape, two individual structures 702 are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the bottom of the base 200 in the length or width direction, with the openings of the two individual structures 702 facing each other. In another embodiment, the second damping member 700 may also be an integral structure. For example, the second damping member 700 may be a ring-shaped structure that matches the shape of the base 200 and is arranged around the bottom periphery of the base 200.

[0043] According to one embodiment of this application, when the second shock absorber 700 includes two individual structures 702, the two individual structures 702 are arranged along the length direction of the base 200 at the bottom of the base 200. Compared with the technical solution where the two individual structures 702 are arranged along the width direction of the base 200 at the bottom of the base 200, the second shock absorber 700 has a larger contact area with the installation position, which can better reduce the vibration amplitude and noise of the equipment.

[0044] Figure 12 This is a structural schematic diagram of the second damping component. (Combined with...) Figure 12 According to one embodiment of this application, at least a portion of the bottom surface of the second shock absorber 700 is provided with an elastic protrusion 701. The elastic protrusion 701 can be arranged in a grid shape, which can make the base 200 elastically contact the installation position, and can also increase the friction between the base 200 and the installation position, further preventing the equipment from being displaced due to vibration at the installation position and reducing the vibration amplitude of the equipment.

[0045] The garment processing equipment provided in this application improves the vibration amplitude and noise of the equipment by using a first shock absorber 600 and / or a second shock absorber 700 at the bottom of the base 200, which are arranged between the body 100 and the base 200. For some small garment processing equipment, some mechanical shock absorbers, such as traditional hanging springs and damping shock absorbers, can be eliminated to reduce the manufacturing cost of the equipment to a certain extent, which is very practical.

[0046] Since the body 100 of the garment processing equipment is rigidly connected to the base 200, in one embodiment, the motion sensor 300 for acquiring the current displacement of the garment processing equipment can be mounted on the base 200, that is, the displacement of the equipment is acquired by detecting the displacement of the base 200. In another embodiment, the motion sensor 300 can also be mounted on the body 100, for example: the motion sensor 300 is mounted on the cylinder 101 of the body 100, or the motion sensor 300 is mounted on the connecting mechanism 106 between two adjacent cylinders 101, that is, the displacement of the equipment is acquired by detecting the displacement of the body 100.

[0047] In one embodiment, the motion sensor 300 may be arranged on the top of the base 200 and positioned on the rear side of a certain cylinder 101 (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown). In another embodiment, the motion sensor 300 may also be arranged between adjacent cylinders 101, or on the front side of one of the cylinders 101.

[0048] Figure 13 This is the logic control diagram for the garment processing equipment. (Combined with...) Figure 13 During equipment operation, motion sensor 300 is coupled to processor 103. Motion sensor 300 can detect the coordinate information of the equipment (including horizontal and vertical coordinates) in real time and transmit the coordinate information to processor 103. Processor 103 receives and processes the acquired coordinate information of the equipment to obtain the displacement of the equipment. It then compares the displacement with the preset displacement stored in processor 103. Based on the comparison result, it controls the rotation speed of the drive component 102 that drives the cylinder 101 to adjust the rotation speed of the cylinder 101, thereby adjusting the displacement of the equipment to avoid displacement of the equipment due to vibration, so as to protect the equipment body and the installation environment in which the equipment is located and improve safety.

[0049] In one embodiment, the motion sensor 300 can be an optical mouse sensor, which is arranged on the top of the base 200 and connected to the processor 103 disposed in the body 100 via a wire, so as to transmit the current displacement of the device acquired by the optical mouse sensor to the processor 103 in real time. In another embodiment, the motion sensor 300 can also be a gyroscope sensor, or other sensors capable of acquiring the current displacement of the device, without limitation.

[0050] In one embodiment, when only the first cylinder 1011 of the device is running, during the operation of the device, the processor 103 controls the rotation speed of the drive unit 102 that drives the first cylinder 1011 to rotate according to the current displacement of the device, so as to adjust the rotation speed of the first cylinder 1011 in the running state, and then adjust the current displacement of the device to avoid the device from shifting due to vibration, so as to protect the device body and the installation environment where the device is located and improve safety.

[0051] In the second embodiment, when the first cylinder 1011 and the second cylinder 1012 of the equipment operate asynchronously, if the equipment displacement exceeds a preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the cylinder with the higher rotational speed of the first cylinder 1011 and the second cylinder 1012 to slow down or stop operating. This adjusts the current displacement of the equipment, preventing displacement due to vibration, thus protecting the equipment itself and its installation environment and improving safety. It should be noted that asynchronous operation of the first cylinder 1011 and the second cylinder 1012 means that the first cylinder 1011 operates before the second cylinder 1012, and the second cylinder 1012 starts while the first cylinder 1011 is operating.

[0052] In the third embodiment, when the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 of the device operate synchronously, if the device displacement exceeds a preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 to slow down or stop operating, in order to adjust the current displacement of the device and prevent the device from shifting due to vibration, thereby protecting the device body and the installation environment where the device is located and improving safety. It should be noted that synchronous operation of the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 means that the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 start up simultaneously and have the same operating program, which can be a washing program or a spin-drying program, etc., and is not limited thereto.

[0053] In the third embodiment, the garment processing device further includes: a processor 103 determining whether the first tubing 1011 and the second tubing 1012 have stopped operating; and when the first tubing 1011 and the second tubing 1012 have stopped operating, the processor 103 controls the first tubing 1011 to rotate to asynchronous operation with the second tubing 1012 according to the operating program executed by the first tubing 1011 and the second tubing 1012, wherein the operating program sets the rotation speed of the first tubing 1011 to be greater than the rotation speed of the second tubing 1012 to avoid displacement of the device due to vibration, thereby protecting the device body and the installation environment in which the device is located and improving safety.

[0054] Furthermore, according to one embodiment of this application, the method for setting the preset speed of the garment processing device's drum is as follows: when the device displacement is greater than a preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the drive unit 102 to drive the first drum 1011 to decelerate; when the device displacement is not greater than the preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the drive unit 102 to drive the first drum 1011 to accelerate; and when the number of times the first drum 1011 continuously accelerates and decelerates reaches a preset value, the processor 103 uses the rotational speed of the first drum 1011 as the preset speed.

[0055] For details on the control of the garment processing equipment described above, please refer to the following description, which will not be repeated here.

[0056] Based on the above-mentioned garment processing equipment, this application also provides a control method for the garment processing equipment to improve the displacement phenomenon caused by vibration, protect the equipment itself and the installation environment in which the equipment is located, and improve safety.

[0057] Figure 14 This is a process control diagram of a garment handling device according to one or more embodiments of this application. (In conjunction with...) Figure 14 The control method for the garment processing equipment includes: The motion sensor 300 acquires the device displacement and sends the device displacement to the processor 103; The processor 103 determines whether the device displacement is greater than the preset displacement of the clothing processing device; When the device displacement is not greater than the preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the first cylinder 1011 to run at the preset speed as the upper limit; and When the equipment displacement is greater than the preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the first cylinder 1011 to slow down or stop running until the equipment displacement is no greater than the preset displacement.

[0058] The control method provided in this application involves a motion sensor 300 detecting the displacement of the equipment during operation and sending the detected displacement to a processor 103. The processor 103 controls the rotation speed of the drive component 102 based on the equipment displacement to control the rotation speed of the cylinder 101, thereby adjusting the equipment displacement. This helps to prevent the equipment from shifting due to vibration to a certain extent, thus protecting the equipment body and the installation environment and improving safety.

[0059] According to one embodiment of this application, acquiring the device displacement of the garment processing device by the motion sensor 300 and sending the device displacement to the processor 103 specifically includes: the motion sensor 300 detecting the current coordinate information (including horizontal and vertical coordinates) of the device in real time; the processor 103 receiving the current coordinate information (including horizontal and vertical coordinates) of the device acquired by the motion sensor 300 in real time; and the processor 103 processing the acquired current coordinate information of the device to obtain the device displacement, wherein the device displacement includes the current coordinate information (including horizontal and vertical coordinates) of the device.

[0060] According to one embodiment of this application, determining whether the device displacement is greater than the preset displacement of the clothing processing device by the processor 103 specifically includes: the processor 103 stores the preset displacement of the clothing processing device, which can be the preset coordinate information of the device (including horizontal coordinate and vertical coordinate); the processor 103 compares the preset coordinate information of the clothing processing device with the current coordinate information of the device; if at least one of the current horizontal coordinate and vertical coordinate of the device is greater than the set horizontal coordinate and vertical coordinate of the device, then it is determined that the current displacement of the device is greater than the preset displacement of the device; only when the current horizontal coordinate of the device is less than or equal to the set horizontal coordinate of the device, and the current vertical coordinate of the device is less than or equal to the set vertical coordinate of the device, is it determined that the current displacement of the device is less than or equal to the preset displacement of the device.

[0061] According to one embodiment of this application, when the device displacement is not greater than a preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the first cylinder 1011 to run at a preset speed as the upper limit. Specifically, if it is determined that the device displacement is less than or equal to the device's preset displacement, it means that the device has not exceeded the set displacement, and then the drive member 102 that controls the rotation of the cylinder 101 continues to run at a preset speed as the upper limit.

[0062] According to one embodiment of this application, when the device displacement is greater than a preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the first cylinder 1011 to slow down or stop running until the device displacement is no greater than the preset displacement. Specifically, this includes: if it is determined that the current displacement of the device is greater than the preset displacement, it means that the device has exceeded or is about to exceed the preset displacement, and the rotation speed of the first cylinder 1011 needs to be reduced; if it is determined that the device displacement is still greater than the preset displacement during the deceleration process of the first cylinder 1011, the drive unit 102 is controlled to continue to reduce the rotation speed until it stops running, so as to avoid the device from shifting due to vibration, protect the device itself and the installation environment where the device is located, and improve safety; if it is determined that the current displacement of the device is less than the preset displacement during the deceleration process of the drive unit 102, the drive unit 102 is controlled to continue running at a preset speed as the upper limit.

[0063] According to one embodiment of this application, the setting of the preset speed specifically includes: when the device displacement is greater than the preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the drive unit 102 to drive the first cylinder 1011 to decelerate; when the device displacement is not greater than the preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the drive unit 102 to drive the first cylinder 1011 to accelerate; and when the number of consecutive acceleration and deceleration of the first cylinder 1011 reaches a preset value, the processor 103 uses the rotational speed of the first cylinder 1011 as the preset speed. As described above, the deceleration and acceleration of the first cylinder 1011 are controlled continuously and intermittently. For example, in the first cycle, the first cylinder 1011 is controlled to decelerate, recorded as the first control count; in the second cycle, the first cylinder 1011 is controlled to accelerate, recorded as the second control count; in the third cycle, the first cylinder 1011 is controlled to decelerate, recorded as the third control count, and so on, until the control count reaches a set value. The rotational speed of the first cylinder 1011 is the preset speed. Therefore, this preset speed is an instantaneous speed to adapt to the operating program of the equipment. It should be noted that the set value can be 5, 7, 10, etc., and is set accordingly according to different operating programs to adapt to the operating program of the equipment.

[0064] The control method for the garment processing equipment provided in this application is applicable to the working condition where the garment processing equipment includes only one drum 101, and also applicable to the working condition where the garment processing equipment includes two or more drums 101. In the working condition where the garment processing equipment includes two or more drums 101, there are three scenarios: only one drum 101 starts, two or more drums 101 start asynchronously, and two or more drums 101 start synchronously. The specific control methods for these three scenarios are further described below.

[0065] When the garment processing equipment includes two or more cylinders 101, and only one cylinder 101 is in operation, since the other cylinders 101 are fixed relative to the base 200, it is consistent with the condition where the garment processing equipment includes only one cylinder 101. Therefore, the above control method can be used to control the garment processing equipment with two or more cylinders 101, but only one cylinder 101 is in operation. The specific control method will not be elaborated.

[0066] In the case where the garment processing equipment includes two or more drums 101, the two or more drums 101 include at least a first drum 1011 and a second drum 1012. The first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 operate asynchronously, that is, while the first drum 1011 is running, the second drum 1012 starts, and both the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 are running for the same period of time thereafter. In this case, when the equipment displacement is greater than a preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 with the higher rotation speed to slow down or stop running. The reason is as follows: If the equipment displacement is determined to be greater than the preset displacement, it indicates that the equipment has exceeded or is about to exceed the preset displacement. Therefore, the rotational speed of cylinder 101 needs to be reduced. Since cylinder 101 with a higher rotational speed is more prone to vibration and displacement, the drive component 102 of the cylinder 101 with the higher rotational speed needs to be controlled to reduce its speed, thus slowing down the cylinder 101 and preventing it from exceeding the preset displacement. During the speed reduction process, the change in the rotational speed of cylinder 101 may cause another cylinder 101 to have a higher rotational speed. Therefore, during the speed reduction process, the control may switch to reducing the rotational speed of the drive component 102 of the other cylinder 101 with the higher rotational speed. If, during the speed reduction process of drive component 102, the current equipment displacement is still determined to be greater than the preset displacement, drive component 102 is controlled to continue reducing its speed until it stops operating. Correspondingly, cylinder 101 also continues to reduce its speed until it stops operating, to prevent equipment displacement due to vibration, protecting the equipment itself and its installation environment, and improving safety. If, during the speed reduction process of drive component 102, the current equipment displacement is determined to be less than the preset displacement, drive component 102 is controlled to continue operating at the preset speed as the upper limit.

[0067] In the case of two or more drums 101 in the garment processing equipment, the two or more drums 101 include at least a first drum 1011 and a second drum 1012. The first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 start synchronously and have the same washing or spin-drying program. In this case, in the control method, when the equipment displacement is greater than a preset displacement, the processor 103 controls the drive unit 102 to drive the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 to reduce speed or stop operation. The reason is that if it is determined that the equipment displacement is greater than the preset displacement, it means that the equipment has exceeded or is about to exceed the preset displacement, and it is necessary to reduce the speed of the drive unit 102. If two or more drums 101 are in the same operating program, the two or more drums 101 have the same speed. In order to avoid vibration displacement of the equipment, it is necessary to control the two or more drums 101 to reduce their speed simultaneously. If, during the process of reducing the speed of the drive component 102, it is determined that the current displacement of the equipment is still greater than the preset displacement of the equipment, the drive component 102 is controlled to continue reducing the speed until it stops running, so as to avoid the equipment from shifting due to vibration, protect the equipment itself and the installation environment where the equipment is located, and improve safety; if, during the process of reducing the speed of the drive component 102, it is determined that the current displacement of the equipment is less than the preset displacement of the equipment, the drive component 102 is controlled to continue running at the preset speed as the upper limit.

[0068] When two or more drums 101 of the garment processing equipment are operating simultaneously, the control method further includes: The processor 103 determines whether the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 have stopped operating. When the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012 have stopped operating, the processor 103 controls the first drum 1011 to rotate asynchronously with the second drum 1012 according to the operating program executed by the first drum 1011 and the second drum 1012. The operating program sets the rotational speed of the first drum 1011 to be greater than the rotational speed of the second drum 1012. This is because if the equipment is still running a program related to the drum 101, such as a spin-drying or washing program, and it needs to restart the drum 101, the rotational speed of the drum 101 affects the vibration and displacement of the equipment. Therefore, the drum 101 with the higher rotational speed needs to be started first. If the higher rotational speed drum 101 does not cause a current displacement greater than the preset displacement during its operation, then the lower rotational speed drum 101 is started to avoid displacement due to vibration. When two or more cylinders 101 operate sequentially, an asynchronous operation of the two cylinders 101 is formed. Therefore, the operation of the garment processing equipment can be controlled according to the control method under the asynchronous operation of the two cylinders 101 to avoid the equipment from shifting due to vibration. This will not be elaborated here.

[0069] Based on the control method of the above-described garment processing equipment, this application also provides a storage medium storing a computer program thereon, which, when executed by the processor 103, implements the control method of the garment processing equipment as described above.

[0070] To achieve the aforementioned technical effects, the garment processing equipment provided in this application includes a body 100, a base 200, and a motion sensor 300. The body 100 is mounted on the base 200. The body 100 includes a cylinder 101, a drive unit 102, and a processor 103. The processor 103 is electrically connected to the drive unit 102. The processor 103 sends instructions to the drive unit 102, which drives the cylinder 101 to rotate at a preset speed to complete a preset garment processing program. The motion sensor 300 is connected to the processor 103 and the drive unit 102. The motion sensor 300 detects the displacement of the garment processing equipment. The processor 103 controls the rotation speed of the drive unit 102 based on the displacement of the garment processing equipment to adjust the corresponding rotation speed of the cylinder 101, thereby adjusting the equipment displacement. This helps to prevent the equipment from shifting due to vibration to a certain extent, thus protecting the equipment itself and its installation environment and improving safety.
