[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," "contact," and "communication" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; they can refer to mechanical connections or electrical connections; they can refer to direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0022] After being washed and dried in a washer-dryer, fabrics are placed in the wardrobe. However, in humid weather, the fabrics stored in the wardrobe can become damp and even develop mold. Currently, for most users, the washing machine and wardrobe are placed far apart, making it inconvenient to carry the washed and dried fabrics to the bedroom wardrobe.

[0023] Based on this, the following embodiments are proposed.

[0024] Example 1: like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides a wardrobe-style fabric processing device, which includes a housing 1 and a fabric processing device 2. The housing 1 is shaped like a wardrobe, and inside the housing 1 are a fabric processing area and a fabric placement area. The fabric processing area is used for washing and drying heavily soiled fabrics, while the fabric placement area is used to place clean fabrics. The fabric processing device 2 is disposed in the fabric processing area, which has a drying module and a fabric processing drum. The drying air output end of the drying module is connected to both the fabric processing drum and the fabric placement area. The fabric processing device 2 can be a drum washer-dryer.

[0025] In this embodiment, the wardrobe-style fabric processing device combines the storage function of a wardrobe with the function of a fabric processing device 2. The fabric processing device 2 in this embodiment is a twin-drum washer-dryer. The two fabric processing drums of the twin-drum washer-dryer are arranged vertically along the height of the fabric processing area. The control panel 3 and detergent dispenser 4 of the twin-drum washer-dryer are located between the two fabric processing drums. When the user needs to clean soiled fabrics, they place the soiled fabrics into the fabric processing device 2 located in the fabric processing area, add fabric processing agent to the detergent dispenser 4, select the washing mode of the fabric processing device 2 via the control panel 3, and then close the door of the fabric processing device 2. The fabric processing device 2 then begins to run the washing program and washes and dries the soiled fabrics. After being cleaned by the fabric processing device 2, the soiled fabrics become clean. After removing the clean fabrics, the user can then place them in the fabric storage area located next to the fabric processing area, eliminating the need to move the fabrics to a distant storage location, making fabric storage more convenient. The fabric storage area functions as a wardrobe, allowing users to hang outerwear or other heavy clothing, fold light fabrics such as underwear and socks, and place clean shoes and socks there.

[0026] The drying module's drying air output is designed to connect to both the fabric processing cylinder and the fabric placement area. A humidity sensor is also installed in the fabric placement area to continuously acquire humidity parameters of the air within the area. This humidity sensor feeds back the acquired humidity parameters to the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment, allowing the equipment to assess the humidity level in the fabric placement area. Based on this assessment, the equipment can then control the drying air output of the drying module to supply drying air to the fabric placement area, thereby drying the fabric and preventing the effects of damp weather and mold on the fabric.

[0027] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, the housing of the fabric processing device 2 has a group of vents communicating with the fabric placement area, the group of vents including a first opening 201 and a second opening 202. The drying air output end of the drying module is connected to the first port 201 to introduce drying air into the fabric placement area, and the second port 202 is connected to the return air end of the drying module.

[0028] In this embodiment, the fabric placement area is connected to the return air end of the drying module inside the fabric processing device 2 through the second port 202 on the housing of the fabric processing device 2. When the fabric is being dried inside the fabric processing device 2, the wardrobe-type fabric processing device sets the airflow path and disconnects the first port 201 and the second port 202 that are connected to the fabric placement area. This allows the drying airflow inside the fabric processing device 2 to either circulate inside the fabric processing cylinder in the drying mode or be directly discharged to the outside of the housing 1 in the fresh air mode, so that the fabric is dried inside the fabric processing device 2.

[0029] When clean fabrics are stored in the fabric storage area, if the external humidity of the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment increases and a damp environment is created, the humidity in the fabric storage area will inevitably increase as well. This will greatly increase the risk of the fabrics in the storage area becoming moldy and smelly. Similarly, when users store shoes and socks that have been washed with water or soaked by rain in the fabric storage area, the humidity in the fabric storage area will also increase, causing the shoes and socks to become moldy and smelly. A humidity sensor continuously acquires the humidity parameters of the air in the fabric placement area and feeds the acquired humidity parameters back to the wardrobe-type fabric processing equipment. When the wardrobe-type fabric processing equipment determines that the humidity in the fabric placement area exceeds a preset threshold, the equipment sets the airflow path. The fabric processing equipment 2 opens the first port 201 and the second port 202 connected to the fabric placement area, allowing the high-temperature drying airflow output by the drying module in the fabric processing equipment 2 to enter the fabric placement area through the first port 201. The high-temperature drying airflow can absorb the moisture in the fabric placement area and form a high-temperature humid airflow. The high-temperature humid airflow can flow into the return air end of the drying module from the second port 202 for cooling and condensation to form a low-temperature drying airflow. After multiple cycles of the drying airflow, the moisture in the fabric placement area will decrease, thus drying the clothes, shoes, socks, and other fabrics placed in the fabric placement area.

[0030] By placing the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area within the same housing 1, the washing and drying functions of the fabric processing device 2 are combined with the wardrobe. This allows users to immediately place clean fabrics from the fabric processing area into the fabric placement area, eliminating the need for users to carry fabrics back and forth between the fabric processing device and the wardrobe multiple times. This saves users physical effort and time during the washing and drying process, improving the convenience of fabric processing. At the same time, this wardrobe-style fabric processing device can also adjust the humidity in the fabric placement area, keeping clothes, shoes, socks, and other fabrics in the placement area always dry, making them convenient for users to access at any time. This not only provides convenience for users but also extends the lifespan of the fabrics.

[0031] Optionally, such as Figure 1As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, the fabric placement area is located outside the housing of the fabric processing device 2, and the first sidewall 203 of the housing of the fabric processing device 2 and the outer shell 1 together form the fabric placement area.

[0032] In this embodiment, the side of the housing of the fabric processing device 2 closest to the fabric placement area is a first sidewall 203. The first sidewall 203 and the outer shell 1 together enclose the fabric placement area. The fabric placement area and the fabric processing area are separated only by the first sidewall 203. The first opening 201 and the second opening 202 of the fabric processing device 2 are both located on the first sidewall 203. High-temperature dry airflow or fresh airflow only needs to pass through the first opening 201 to enter the fabric placement area, while high-temperature humid airflow or fresh humid airflow in the fabric placement area only needs to pass through the second opening 202 to remove moisture from the fabric placement area.

[0033] By using one side of the housing of the fabric processing device 2 as a partition to separate the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area, the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area do not need to be connected by pipes. This shortens the flow path of the drying airflow between the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area, improves the drying efficiency of the fabric placement area, and reduces the number of parts used, thus simplifying the overall structure of the wardrobe-style fabric processing device.

[0034] Alternatively, in one implementation of this embodiment, The housing of the fabric processing device 2 has a first port 201 that communicates with the fabric placement area. The drying air output end of the drying module is connected to the first port 201 to introduce drying air into the fabric placement area. The housing of the fabric processing device 2 has a second opening 202 that communicates with the fabric placement area. The second opening 202 is connected to the exhaust port of the fabric processing device. Alternatively, the outer shell 1 has a second opening 202 on the side wall corresponding to the fabric placement area. The second opening 202 is connected to the outside of the outer shell 1. The first opening 201 and the second opening 202 constitute a ventilation opening group.

[0035] In this embodiment, when the wardrobe-style fabric processing device determines that the humidity in the fabric placement area exceeds a preset threshold within the device, the device adjusts the airflow path. The fabric processing device 2 opens the first port 201 and the second port 202, which communicate with the fabric placement area. This allows the high-temperature drying airflow from the drying module within the device 2 to enter the fabric placement area through the first port 201. The high-temperature drying airflow absorbs moisture from the fabric placement area and forms a high-temperature humid airflow. When the outer casing 1 has a second port 202 on its side wall corresponding to the fabric placement area, the second... The opening 202 is connected to the outside of the outer shell 1. High-temperature and humid airflow can be directly discharged from the second opening 202 to the external space of the outer shell 1. When the housing of the fabric processing device 2 has a second opening 202 that is connected to the fabric placement area, and the second opening 202 is connected to the exhaust port of the fabric processing device, high-temperature and humid airflow can be discharged from the second opening 202 to the exhaust port of the fabric processing device itself. Both of the above dehumidification methods can make the moisture in the fabric placement area gradually decrease, thereby making the clothes, shoes and socks and other fabrics placed in the fabric placement area dry.

[0036] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, partitions 101 are spaced apart in the fabric placement area, and the partitions 101 divide the fabric placement area into multiple independent fabric storage chambers 102. Multiple ventilation vent groups are provided, and the multiple ventilation vent groups are connected to the multiple fabric storage chambers 102 in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0037] In this embodiment, the number of partitions 101 is at least two. The fabric placement area, by having at least two partitions 101 spaced apart within it, forms at least three fabric storage chambers 102. This design facilitates the user's classification and storage of fabrics, further improving the convenience of storing and retrieving clean fabrics. All three fabric storage chambers 102 within the fabric placement area can be connected to the drying module of the fabric processing device 2 via the first and second openings 201, allowing the drying airflow to pass through each fabric storage chamber 102 and independently dry each chamber. This ensures that all fabrics stored in each chamber are thoroughly dried, guaranteeing that all fabrics in the fabric placement area are adequately dried while preventing cross-contamination of odors.

[0038] By setting up partitions 101 to divide the fabric storage area into multiple fabric storage chambers 102, it is possible to ensure that all fabrics stored in the fabric storage area can be fully dried, and it can also improve the convenience for users when storing and retrieving clean fabrics.

[0039] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, the plurality of fabric storage chambers 102 include a first storage chamber 1021, a second storage chamber 1022, and a third storage chamber 1023. The first storage chamber 1021, the second storage chamber 1022, and the third storage chamber 1023 are all located within the outer casing 1 and arranged sequentially along the vertical direction within the outer casing 1. The first storage chamber 1021 is configured to hold outerwear, the second storage chamber 1022 is configured to hold underwear, and the third storage chamber 1023 is configured to hold shoes and socks.

[0040] In this embodiment, when the fabric storage area has three fabric storage chambers 102, the three fabric storage chambers 102 can be divided into a first storage chamber 1021, a second storage chamber 1022, and a third storage chamber 1023. The first storage chamber 1021, the second storage chamber 1022, and the third storage chamber 1023 are respectively used to store outerwear, underwear, and shoes and socks. The interior of the fabric storage area can be configured into different shapes according to the user's actual needs. In this embodiment, the interior of the fabric storage area is a cuboid space extending vertically. The width and depth of the first storage chamber 1021, the second storage chamber 1022, and the third storage chamber 1023 are all the same, while the heights of the first storage chamber 1021, the second storage chamber 1022, and the third storage chamber 1023 can be set to different heights according to their different fabric storage requirements. For example, hanging outerwear usually requires the highest vertical height, while neatly stacked underwear usually requires a lower vertical height than outerwear, and flat-laid shoes and socks usually require a lower vertical height than underwear. That is, the height of the first storage chamber 1021 is greater than the height of the second storage chamber 1022, and the height of the second storage chamber 1022 is greater than the height of the third storage chamber 1023.

[0041] Since some users' homes have limited space to place the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment, making it impossible to install it, a customized approach can be adopted based on the user's home space. This involves measuring the dimensions of the user's balcony or installation location and then modifying the structure and dimensions of the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment accordingly.

[0042] By using the first storage chamber 1021, the second storage chamber 1022, and the third storage chamber 1023 to store outerwear, underwear, and shoes and socks respectively, and by setting the height of the first storage chamber 1021 to be greater than the height of the second storage chamber 1022, and the height of the second storage chamber 1022 to be greater than the height of the third storage chamber 1023, different types of fabrics can be properly and appropriately stored in the fabric storage area. This not only makes full and reasonable use of the space in the fabric storage area, but also reduces the ironing operation when users take out clean fabrics, further improving the convenience for users when storing and taking out clean fabrics.

[0043] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, the ventilation port group includes a first ventilation port group, a second ventilation port group, and a third ventilation port group. The first ventilation port group includes a first opening A2011 and a second opening A2021, both of which are connected to the first storage chamber 1021. The second ventilation port group includes a first opening B2012 and a second opening B2022, both of which are connected to the second storage chamber 1022. The third ventilation port group includes a first opening C2013 and a second opening C2023, both of which are connected to the third storage chamber 1023.

[0044] In this embodiment, the three fabric storage chambers 102 in the fabric placement area can all be connected to the drying module of the fabric processing equipment 2 through their corresponding first port 201 and second port 202, thereby establishing multiple independent airflow paths between the fabric placement area and the fabric processing equipment 2, so that the drying airflow can flow through each fabric storage chamber 102 independently and circulate independently with the fabric processing equipment 2.

[0045] This design allows the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment to dry the fabrics stored in each fabric storage chamber 102 individually, avoiding the repeated drying of fabrics in other chambers while drying one chamber, thus reducing the operating energy consumption of the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment.

[0046] This design also ensures that the first storage chamber 1021, the second storage chamber 1022, and the third storage chamber 1023 are independent of each other. The drying airflow cannot circulate between the storage chambers. When the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment dries at least two of the storage chambers simultaneously, the odor from the fabrics stored in each chamber will not be carried by the drying airflow to other storage chambers. This reduces the risk of odor mixing between the storage chambers and enhances the storage effect of the fabric placement area on the fabrics inside. For example, when a user places hand-washed shoes or shoes that have been wet from rain into the third storage chamber 1023, the user can control the drying function of the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment via the control panel 3, ensuring that the equipment only dries the third storage chamber 1023. This not only dries the shoes but also prevents odors generated during shoe drying from entering the first and second storage chambers 1021 and contaminating other fabrics.

[0047] By connecting multiple sets of second ports 202 and first ports 201 to multiple storage chambers, it is possible to avoid repeated drying of fabrics in a dry state, thereby reducing the operating energy consumption of the wardrobe-type fabric processing equipment. It is also possible to reduce the risk of cross-contamination of odors between storage chambers and enhance the storage effect of the fabric placement area on the fabrics inside.

[0048] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, a clothes rack 1024 is provided at the top of the first storage chamber 1021.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first storage chamber 1021 is used to store outerwear. The hanging rod 1024 can be fixedly connected to the top of the first storage chamber 1021 with screws, which can make the maximum use of the height space in the first storage chamber 1021. When hanging outerwear, the outerwear can be fully stretched out, thereby reducing the need for users to iron the outerwear when taking it out.

[0050] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and 3 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, the fabric processing equipment 2 is a twin-drum washer-dryer.

[0051] In daily life, most families wash adult clothes and children's clothes separately, and some even buy separate fabric processing equipment for adults and children. In this embodiment, the fabric processing device 2 in the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment provides families with the option to wash adult clothes and children's clothes separately at the same time. The fabric processing device 2 is a twin-drum washer-dryer. The two fabric processing drums of the twin-drum washer-dryer are set up vertically along the height of the fabric processing area. This can make full use of the vertical space of the fabric processing area, reduce the floor space occupied by the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment, and make the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment adaptable to the washing needs of different families.

[0052] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and 4 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, the outer shell 1 is provided with a first door 205 and a second door 103. The first door 205 is used to open and close the fabric processing area, and the second door 103 is used to open and close the fabric placement area. The first door 205 is provided with a glass bowl 2051 corresponding to the inlet of the twin-drum washer-dryer.

[0053] In this embodiment, the outer shell 1 of the wardrobe-type fabric processing equipment is provided with a first door 205 and a second door 103, which are used to open and close the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area respectively, so that both the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area can be kept closed, so as to ensure that the fabric processing equipment 2 can realize the washing and drying function and reduce the total amount of dust and humid air entering the fabric placement area, so that the fabric can be kept dry and clean for a long time.

[0054] The pivot of the first door 205 is located on the side of the fabric handling device 2 away from the fabric placement area, and the second door 103 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the outer casing 1 away from the fabric handling area, thereby forming a double-door structure between the first door 205 and the second door 103. During the process of the user removing clean fabric from the fabric handling device 2 and storing it in the fabric placement area, the double-door structure ensures that the second door 103 does not obstruct the user's movement.

[0055] In this embodiment, the first door 205 is directly used as the door of the fabric processing equipment, and also as one of the doors of the outer shell 1, which simplifies the overall structure of the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment, saves materials and reduces the overall production cost of the equipment.

[0056] In one embodiment, preferably, a control panel 3 and a detergent dispenser 4 are provided on the twin-drum washer-dryer between the two fabric handling drums, and the two fabric handling drums are configured to share the control panel 3 and the detergent dispenser 4.

[0057] When the fabric processing device 2 is a twin-drum washer-dryer, the control panel 3 and detergent dispenser 4 of the fabric processing device 2 are located between the upper and lower garment processing drums. The first door 205 is divided into an upper door and a lower door, which can be opened and closed independently for the upper and lower garment processing drums, respectively. When the user uses only one garment processing drum, it is not necessary to open and close the doors corresponding to the other garment processing drums at the same time. When both the upper and lower doors are closed on the fabric processing area, the first door 205 formed by the upper and lower doors can completely cover the surface of the fabric processing area.

[0058] By setting a first door 205 and a second door 103 forming a double-door structure in front of the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area respectively, the fabric processing equipment 2 can be guaranteed to realize the washing and drying functions, and the total amount of dust and humid air entering the fabric placement area can be reduced, so that the fabric can be kept dry and clean for a long time. It can also avoid the doors from obstructing the user's movement.

[0059] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and 2 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, a storage groove 204 is provided on the lower side of the glass bowl 2051.

[0060] In this embodiment, a storage slot 204 is provided below the glass bowl of the first door 205. The storage slot 204 is used to temporarily place dirty fabrics to be washed. When the fabric processing equipment 2 is a double drum washer-dryer, there are two glass bowls distributed vertically on the first door 205. The storage slot 204 can be provided below both glass bowls, or the storage slot 204 can be provided only below the lower glass bowl.

[0061] When a user has a large number of soiled fabrics to process, the garment processing drum cannot clean all the soiled fabrics in a single wash and dry cycle. The user can first bring all the soiled fabrics to the wardrobe-style garment processing equipment, open the first door 205, and put some of the soiled fabrics into the garment processing drum. After this part of the fabrics is processed into clean fabrics, the user can take out this part of the clean fabrics and directly organize and store them in the adjacent fabric placement area. The remaining soiled fabrics in the storage tank 204 can then be put into the garment processing drum to start washing again. This allows the user to take out and put in the fabrics with just one opening of the door.

[0062] In one embodiment, the shape of the storage slot 204 can be designed so that it can not only provide space for users to store dirty clothes, but also be used to store detergents and other items purchased by users, thereby providing users with the possibility of storing a variety of items and further improving the convenience of users during use.

[0063] By providing a storage slot 204 below the glass bowl of the first door 205, users can operate the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment without having to travel back and forth between the pile of dirty fabrics, the fabric processing equipment, and the wardrobe. This saves users physical strength, reduces their labor intensity, and saves time, thereby further improving the convenience of users in handling dirty fabrics.

[0064] Optionally, such as Figure 1 and 4 As shown, in one implementation of this embodiment, both the first door body 205 and the second door body 103 are provided with door handles 104.

[0065] In this embodiment, door handles 104 are respectively provided on the first door body 205 and the second door body 103. The door handles 104 protrude from the first door body 205 and the second door body 103. Each door handle 104 is fixedly connected to the first door body 205 and the second door body 103 by screws. The door handles 104 facilitate the user to perform the operation of opening and closing the door, thereby improving the user experience.

[0066] In one embodiment, door handles 104 are formed on the first door body 205 and the second door body 103, respectively. The door handles 104 have a recessed structure that extends from the outer surface of the door body to the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area, respectively, so that the door handles 104 do not protrude from the surface of the first door body 205 and the second door body 103, thereby reducing the volume of the wardrobe-type fabric processing equipment and preventing users from accidentally bumping into the door handles 104 when passing by the wardrobe-type fabric processing equipment.

[0067] In summary, the ingenious design of wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment lies in: Firstly, by placing the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area within the same housing, and connecting the drying air output of the drying module to both the fabric processing drum and the fabric placement area, the washer-dryer's washing and drying functions are combined with a wardrobe. This allows users to immediately place clean fabrics from the fabric processing area into the fabric placement area, eliminating the need for multiple trips between the fabric processing equipment and the wardrobe. This saves users time and effort during the washing and drying process, improving the convenience of fabric processing. Furthermore, this wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment can adjust the humidity within the fabric placement area, ensuring that clothes, shoes, and socks are always dry for easy access, providing convenience and extending the lifespan of the fabrics.

[0068] Secondly, by using one side of the washer-dryer's casing as a separator to divide the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area, no connecting pipes are needed between them. This shortens the airflow path between the two areas, improving drying efficiency in the placement area, and also reduces the number of components used, simplifying the overall structure of the washer-dryer as a fabric processing device. Third, by using the first storage chamber, the second storage chamber, and the third storage chamber to store outerwear, underwear, and shoes and socks respectively, and by setting the height of the first storage chamber to be greater than that of the second storage chamber, and the height of the second storage chamber to be greater than that of the third storage chamber, different types of fabrics can be properly and appropriately stored in the fabric storage area. This not only makes full and reasonable use of the space in the fabric storage area, but also reduces the ironing operation when users take out clean fabrics, further improving the convenience for users when storing and taking out clean fabrics.

[0069] Fourth, by connecting multiple sets of second and first ports to multiple storage chambers, it is possible to avoid repeated drying of fabrics in a dry state, thereby reducing the operating energy consumption of the wardrobe-type fabric processing equipment. It is also possible to reduce the risk of cross-contamination of odors between storage chambers and enhance the storage effect of the fabric placement area on the fabrics inside.

[0070] Fifth, by setting a first door and a second door forming a double-door structure in front of the fabric processing area and the fabric placement area respectively, the washer-dryer can ensure that it can perform washing and drying functions, reduce the total amount of dust and humid air entering the fabric placement area, keep the fabric dry and clean for a long time, and also avoid the doors from obstructing the user's movement.

[0071] Sixth, by setting up a storage slot under the glass bowl of the first door, users only need to operate the wardrobe-style fabric processing equipment, without having to go back and forth between the pile of dirty fabrics, the fabric processing equipment and the wardrobe multiple times. This saves users' physical strength, reduces their labor intensity and saves time, thereby further improving the convenience of users in handling dirty fabrics.

[0072] Seventh, by setting the second vent in the ventilation group at different positions, the internal circulation return air or direct exhaust air can be achieved for the fabric placement area, and a variety of drying air circulation modes can be selected according to different needs.

[0073] It can be further understood that in this disclosure, "many" refers to two or more, and other quantifiers are similar. "And / or" describes the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist; for example, A and / or B can represent: A alone, A and B simultaneously, and B alone. The character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects are in an "or" relationship. The singular forms "a," "the," and "the" are also intended to include the plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0074] It is further understood that the terms "first," "second," etc., are used to describe various types of information, but this information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from one another, and do not indicate a specific order or degree of importance. In fact, the expressions "first," "second," etc., are completely interchangeable. For example, without departing from the scope of this disclosure, first information can also be referred to as second information, and similarly, second information can also be referred to as first information.
