Description

Control method, control apparatus, clothes treating apparatus, and storage medium

[0001] The present disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202410951775.0, filed on July 15, 2024, entitled "Control method of clothes treating apparatus and clothes treating apparatus", Chinese Patent Application No. 202510108273.6, filed on January 23, 2025, entitled "Control method of clothes treating apparatus and clothes treating apparatus", the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in their entirety. TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of clothes treating, and in particular, to a control method, a control apparatus, a clothes treating apparatus, and a storage medium. BACKGROUND

[0003] The clothes treating apparatus, such as a clothes dryer or a washer-dryer with a drying function, can heat the wet clothes after washing to remove moisture and achieve drying of the clothes.

[0004] In the related art, in the drying process of the load such as clothes, the clothes made of special materials such as wool materials need to be dried in a wall-hugging manner, and only a timed drying manner can be used to determine the drying of the clothes. In addition, when the load in the clothes treating cavity meets the small load condition, only the timed drying manner can be used to determine the drying of the clothes. In order to ensure the drying of the clothes, the above-mentioned timed drying manner usually sets a long drying time, which easily leads to over-drying of the clothes, thereby increasing power consumption and reducing user experience.

[0005] In the related art, the clothes treating apparatus usually has a detection device, and the detection data of the detection device is used to determine the drying degree of the clothes. However, due to the difference in the weight and material of the load, when the load amount is small, the load will move regularly with the clothes treating cavity at a certain speed, and the detection device cannot contact the load, which leads to low accuracy of the detection device in determining the drying degree of the load. SUMMARY

[0006] (I) Technical problem to be solved

[0007] The technical problem to be solved by the present disclosure is to avoid the problem that in the related art, the clothes are dried in a timed drying manner with a long drying time to ensure that the clothes can be dried, which easily leads to over-drying of the clothes, increases power consumption, and reduces user experience. The problem that the detection device cannot contact the load due to the movement track of the load, which leads to low accuracy of the detection device in determining the drying degree of the load.

[0008] (II) Technical solutions

[0009] To solve the above technical problems, the present disclosure provides a control method, a control device, a clothes processing device, and a storage medium. The control method determines that a to-be-executed drying program is a preset drying program, and determines a drying state of a load based on detection data of a drying parameter detection device. The clothes processing device includes the drying parameter detection device, which is arranged on an inner wall of a clothes processing cavity. The clothes processing device includes a conventional drying program and a preset drying program. During execution of the preset drying program by the clothes processing device, the drying parameter detection device arranged on the inner wall of the clothes processing cavity is easy to contact the clothes, so that the drying parameter detection device can be used to detect a drying parameter of the clothes, and it is determined whether the load is dried according to the drying parameter of the clothes. When it is determined that the load is dried, the drying program can be ended, so that accurate drying judgment of the load such as clothes is realized, and the problems of over-drying of the clothes, increased power consumption, and reduced user experience caused by setting a relatively long drying time for drying the clothes in a time-drying manner in the related art are avoided. Based on the detection data of the detection device within a first time reaching a first preset condition, the rotational speed of the clothes processing cavity is adjusted. Based on the detection data of the detection device within a second time not reaching the first preset condition, the preset drying program is executed. The upper limit of the load amount suitable for processing corresponding to the preset drying program is lower than the upper limit of the load amount suitable for processing corresponding to the conventional drying program. Thus, by adjusting the rotational speed of the clothes processing cavity when the detection data of the detection device within the first time reaches the first preset condition, and executing the preset drying program when the detection data of the detection device within the second time does not reach the first preset condition, the problem that the detection device cannot contact the load due to the movement track of the load, the accuracy of the drying degree judgment of the load by the detection device is low, and even the load is misjudged as empty is avoided, and the accuracy of the drying degree judgment of the load by the detection device is improved.

[0067] (III) Advantages

[0068] The above technical solutions provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure have the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0069] The control method of the laundry treating apparatus provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure comprises: determining that a drying program to be executed is a preset drying program, and determining a drying state of a load based on detection data of a drying parameter detection device. The laundry treating apparatus comprises the drying parameter detection device, which is arranged on an inner wall of a laundry treating cavity. The laundry treating apparatus comprises a conventional drying program and a preset drying program. During execution of the preset drying program by the laundry treating apparatus, the drying parameter detection device arranged on the inner wall of the laundry treating cavity is easy to contact the laundry, so that the drying parameter of the laundry can be detected by the drying parameter detection device, and it is determined whether the load is dried according to the drying parameter of the laundry. When it is determined that the load is dried, the drying program can be ended, so that accurate drying judgment of the load such as laundry is realized, and the problem that the laundry is over-dried, power consumption is increased, and user experience is reduced due to the long drying time of the laundry set in the related art by using the timing drying method is avoided.

[0070] The present disclosure provides a control method of a laundry treating apparatus and the laundry treating apparatus. The laundry treating apparatus comprises a detection device arranged in a laundry treating cavity. The laundry treating apparatus comprises a conventional drying program and a preset drying program. The control method comprises: adjusting a rotating speed of the laundry treating cavity based on detection data of the detection device reaching a first preset condition within a first time; executing the preset drying program based on the detection data of the detection device not reaching the first preset condition within a second time. The upper limit of the load amount suitable for processing corresponding to the preset drying program is lower than the upper limit of the load amount suitable for processing corresponding to the conventional drying program. Thus, by adjusting the rotating speed of the laundry treating cavity when the detection data of the detection device reaches the first preset condition within the first time, and executing the preset drying program when the detection data of the detection device does not reach the first preset condition within the second time, the problem that the detection device cannot contact the load due to the movement track of the load, the accuracy of the detection device in judging the drying degree of the load is low, and even the load is misjudged as empty is avoided, and the accuracy of the detection device in judging the drying degree of the load is improved.

[0084] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions, and superiorities of the embodiments of the disclosure clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the disclosure will be described below clearly and completely. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part but not all of the embodiments of the disclosure. Based on the embodiments in the disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the disclosure.

[0085] In the related art, the drying parameter detection device is arranged on the front support of the clothes processing equipment, and the front support is located at the front side of the clothes processing cavity, so that the drying parameter detection device is relatively far away from the load in the clothes processing cavity. For example, when the clothes are subjected to wall-hugging drying, the drying parameter detection device basically cannot touch the load, so when the clothes are subjected to wall-hugging drying, the clothes cannot be judged by using the drying parameter detection device to detect the drying parameter, and only timed drying can be used. Among them, wall-hugging drying can reduce the friction and mechanical force of clothes of special materials such as wool materials during the drying process. Therefore, for clothes of special materials such as wool materials, wall-hugging drying is beneficial to protect clothes of wool materials.

[0086] For another example, when the load in the clothes processing cavity is too small, the probability of the clothes being turned over to contact the drying parameter detection device during the clothes drying process is relatively small, so when the load in the clothes processing cavity is too small, the clothes are judged by using the drying parameter detection device to detect the drying parameter, there is a high probability of misjudgment, and accurate drying cannot be performed, and only timed drying can be used.

[0087] When the clothes are dried by using the above-mentioned timed drying method, a relatively long drying time is usually set to ensure that the clothes in the clothes processing cavity can be dried, which is easy to cause over-drying of the clothes, thereby increasing power consumption and reducing user experience.

[0088] In view of the above technical problems in the related art, the control method of the clothes processing equipment provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure. The control method of the clothes processing equipment provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure, during the execution of the preset drying program of the clothes processing equipment, the drying parameter detection device arranged on the inner wall of the clothes processing cavity is easy to contact the clothes, so that the drying parameter of the clothes can be detected by using the drying parameter detection device, and whether the load is dried is determined according to the drying parameter of the clothes, and the drying program can be ended when it is determined that the load is dried, thereby realizing accurate drying of the load such as clothes, and avoiding the problem that in the related art, a relatively long drying time is set for drying the clothes by using the timed drying method to ensure that the clothes can be dried, which is easy to cause over-drying of the clothes, increase power consumption and reduce user experience.

[0089] The control method of the clothes processing equipment, the control device of the clothes processing equipment, the computer readable storage medium, and the clothes processing equipment provided in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0090] Figure 1 is a flowchart illustrating a control method for a garment processing device according to an embodiment of this disclosure. This method is applicable to application scenarios requiring garment drying within the garment processing device. This method can be executed by a control device for the garment processing device provided in this embodiment of the disclosure, which can be implemented using software and / or hardware. As shown in Figure 1, the control method for the garment processing device includes the following steps:

[0091] S101. Determine that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program, and determine the drying status of the load based on the detection data of the drying parameter detection device.

[0092] The garment processing equipment includes a drying parameter detection device, which is installed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber. The garment processing equipment includes a conventional drying program and a preset drying program. During the drying process of the garment processing equipment, the drying parameter detection device installed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber can easily come into contact with the garment, thereby detecting the drying parameters of the garment and determining the drying status of the load based on the drying parameters of the garment.

[0093] The standard drying program is the basic drying program of the garment processing equipment, such as a drying program that does not require special settings based on the material, function, or load of the garment. The preset drying program is a drying program set according to specific material, load, or function requirements. For example, the preset drying program may include the wall-mounted drying program or the low-load drying program described below.

[0094] Specifically, during the clothes drying process, when it is determined that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program, a drying parameter detection device installed on the inner wall of the clothes processing chamber can be used to detect the clothes drying parameters. The drying status of the load is then determined based on the detected drying parameters; that is, the drying status of the load is determined based on the detection data from the drying parameter detection device. When it is determined that the load is dry, the drying program can be terminated. Therefore, this embodiment of the present disclosure can obtain detection data through the drying parameter detection device and determine whether the load is dry based on the detection data. When it is determined that the load is dry, the drying program can be terminated, thereby achieving accurate determination of the dryness of loads such as clothes.

[0095] In related technologies, the drying parameter detection device is located on the front support of the garment processing equipment. This front support is situated at the front of the garment processing chamber, resulting in a relatively large distance between the detection device and the load inside the chamber. When garments are dried against the wall, the detection device essentially cannot reach the load. Furthermore, when the load inside the chamber is too low, the probability of the garments flipping over and coming into contact with the detection device during the drying process is low. In these situations, it is impossible to determine the dryness of the garments using the drying parameter detection device; only timed drying can be used. When using timed drying, a longer drying time is typically set to ensure the garments in the chamber are thoroughly dried, which can easily lead to over-drying, increasing power consumption and reducing the user experience.

[0096] Compared to related technologies, the embodiments of this disclosure, by setting the drying parameter detection device on the inner wall of the clothing processing chamber, when it is determined that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program, the drying parameter detection device can touch the load and obtain detection data. Based on the detection data of the drying parameter detection device, the drying status of the load is determined, and the drying program ends when it is determined that the load is dry. This achieves accurate judgment of the dryness of the clothes, which avoids the problems in related technologies where clothes are dried by timed drying, usually with a long drying time to ensure that the clothes are dried, which can easily lead to over-drying of clothes, increase power consumption, and reduce the user experience.

[0097] The drying parameter detection device can be, for example, a conductivity detection device. Exemplarily, FIG2 is a schematic diagram of the physical structure of a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in FIG2, the garment processing device includes a garment processing cylinder 1, lifting ribs 2, and a conductivity detection device (not shown in FIG2). The garment processing cylinder 1 has a garment processing cavity 1a, and the lifting ribs 2 are disposed within the garment processing cavity 1a; at least a portion of the conductivity detection device is disposed on the outer surface of the lifting ribs 2. The lifting ribs 2 include an extension 22 connected to the rear end of the main body 23.

[0098] Specifically, the conductivity detection device can detect the conductivity of the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 1a. The clothing processing equipment can determine the degree of drying of the clothing based on the conductivity detected by the device. The principle of the conductivity detection device is as follows: the load within the clothing processing chamber 1a contacts the two electrodes of the conductivity detection device, causing the conductivity detection circuit to conduct. Loads with different levels of moisture have different resistance values; that is, the moisture level of the load is related to the conductivity. The degree of drying is determined based on the conductivity. Specifically, the greater the moisture level of the load, the greater the detected conductivity. Therefore, by placing the conductivity detection device on the outer surface of the lifting rib, the device can contact the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 1a, thereby sensing the degree of drying of the clothing at close range and determining the drying status of the load based on the detection data.

[0099] In some embodiments, the drying parameter detection device may also be configured as a humidity detection device, such as a humidity sensor, which determines the degree of drying of the clothes by detecting the humidity value of the load, such as clothing. In other embodiments, other technical means well known to those skilled in the art may be used to obtain characterizing values ​​that can determine the degree of drying of the clothes, and this disclosure does not limit these methods.

[0100] The control method for a garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes: determining that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program, and determining the drying status of the load based on the detection data of a drying parameter detection device. The garment processing device includes a drying parameter detection device disposed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber. During the execution of the preset drying program, the drying parameter detection device disposed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber easily comes into contact with the garments, thereby detecting the drying parameters of the garments. Based on the drying parameters, it is determined whether the load is dry. When it is determined that the load is dry, the drying program can be terminated, thereby achieving accurate determination of the dryness of the load, such as garments. This avoids the problems in related technologies where timed drying methods are used to set long drying times to ensure the garments are dry, which can easily lead to over-drying, increased power consumption, and reduced user experience.

[0101] In some embodiments, determining that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program includes:

[0102] Based on the drying speed reaching the wall-adhering speed of the drying program to be executed, the drying program to be executed is determined to be the preset drying program.

[0103] Specifically, by detecting the drying speed of the drying program, when the drying speed reaches the wall-mounted speed, the load such as clothes can be dried in a wall-mounted drying manner. At this time, it can be determined that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program. For example, the wall-mounted speed is 60-80 rpm. When the drying speed is detected to reach 60-80 rpm, the load can be dried in a wall-mounted manner.

[0104] Therefore, when the drying speed of the drying program to be executed reaches the wall-attaching speed, it can be determined that the current drying program to be executed is the preset drying program.

[0105] In some embodiments, determining the drying state of the load based on the detection data from the drying parameter detection device includes:

[0106] Based on the current drying speed reaching the wall-adhering speed, obtain the detection data from the drying parameter detection device;

[0107] Once the detection data meets the drying criteria and the number of drying cycles reaches the first preset number, the load drying process is considered complete.

[0108] The dryness condition is used to determine whether the clothes are dry based on the detection data of the drying parameter detection device. The first preset number of times is used to determine whether the load has finished drying based on the number of dryness judgments. The first preset number of times can be set according to the requirements of the control method of the clothes processing equipment provided in this disclosure.

[0109] Specifically, by acquiring the drying speed parameters during the drying process, when the drying speed reaches the wall-mounted speed, the drying program to be executed can be determined to be the preset drying program. At this time, detection data characterizing the degree of drying of the clothes can be acquired through the drying parameter detection device. When it is determined that the detection data meets the dryness judgment conditions, one dryness judgment can be recorded until the first preset number of dryness judgments is reached, at which point the load drying can be determined to be over.

[0110] Therefore, by setting the drying conditions and the first preset number of times, the drying of the load is determined to be over when the first preset number of drying times is reached, which helps to improve the accuracy of drying the load.

[0111] For example, as described above, the drying parameter detection device can be configured as a conductivity detection device, such as a conductivity sensor. During the wall-mounted drying process, the conductivity is obtained when the conductivity detection device comes into contact with the load. The conductivity is related to the moisture level of the load; a higher conductivity indicates more damp clothing. Based on this, a conductivity threshold is set, which corresponds to the conductivity obtained when the conductivity detection device comes into contact with the load after the clothing has dried.

[0112] Therefore, during the wall-mounted drying process of clothes, the conductivity can be obtained when the conductivity detection device comes into contact with the load. The obtained conductivity is compared with the conductivity threshold. When the obtained conductivity is less than or equal to the conductivity threshold, it can be determined that the drying condition is met, and the number of drying tests is recorded. When the obtained conductivity is greater than the conductivity threshold, it can be determined that the drying condition is not met.

[0113] In some embodiments, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes:

[0114] Based on the fact that the detection data did not meet the judgment criteria, the load in the garment processing chamber was determined to be turned over at the time when the garment processing chamber was reversed.

[0115] The detection data from the drying parameter detection device is obtained again to determine whether the drying conditions have been met.

[0116] Specifically, based on the data from the drying parameter detection device mentioned earlier, when it is determined that the drying conditions have not been met, and the drying time has reached the load reversal time in the garment processing chamber, the garment processing chamber is controlled to reverse. By controlling the reversal of the garment processing chamber, the load in the garment processing chamber can be flipped, thereby changing the contact position between the drying parameter detection device and the load.

[0117] After the load in the garment processing chamber is flipped, i.e., the contact position between the drying parameter detection device and the load changes, the detection data from the drying parameter detection device is acquired again to determine whether the drying condition has been met. Therefore, by controlling the rotation of the garment processing chamber, the drying parameter detection device can acquire detection data from different positions of the load, thereby improving the accuracy of garment drying determination.

[0118] For example, based on the detection data from the drying parameter detection device, it is determined that the drying condition has not been met, and the drying time has reached the load flipping time in the clothing processing chamber, for example, 10 minutes. At this point, the clothing processing chamber is controlled to first stop rotating, for example, for 3-5 seconds, and then controlled to reverse rotation, for example, for 20-30 seconds, thereby flipping the load in the clothing processing chamber. After the clothing processing chamber reverses rotation, it is first stopped rotating, for example, for 3-5 seconds, and then controlled to rotate forward to continue drying the clothes. While the clothing processing chamber is rotating forward to dry the clothes, the detection data from the drying parameter detection device is acquired again to determine whether the drying condition has been met.

[0119] Specifically, after the load in the garment processing chamber is flipped, the garment processing chamber is controlled to rotate forward to continue drying the clothes. While the garment processing chamber is drying clothes in the forward direction, the drying time needs to be recorded again. When it is determined again based on the detection data that the drying condition has not been met and the newly recorded drying time reaches the time for flipping the load in the garment processing chamber, the garment processing chamber is controlled to rotate in reverse to flip the load in the garment processing chamber.

[0120] In some embodiments, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes:

[0121] If the number of dry-processing cycles has not reached the first preset number, control the garment processing chamber to reverse.

[0122] The detection data from the drying parameter detection device is obtained again to determine whether the drying conditions have been met.

[0123] Specifically, based on the data from the drying parameter detection device, as described above, if the drying condition is deemed met and the number of drying cycles has not reached the first preset number, the garment processing chamber is reversed. Reversing the garment processing chamber flips the load within it, changing the contact position between the drying parameter detection device and the load. After the load in the garment processing chamber is flipped, the detection data from the drying parameter detection device is acquired again to determine if the drying condition has been met.

[0124] Therefore, by controlling the reverse rotation of the garment processing chamber, the load in the garment processing chamber can be flipped, and the drying parameter detection device can obtain detection data at different positions of the load to improve the accuracy of garment drying judgment.

[0125] In some embodiments, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes:

[0126] The drying process ends when the maximum drying time is reached.

[0127] Specifically, a maximum drying time can be set for the preset drying program. When the maximum drying time is reached, the drying process can be considered complete. Therefore, if an error is detected in the drying process based on the number of drying attempts mentioned above, the drying program can be terminated when the maximum drying time is reached, avoiding the problem of continuously checking for dryness.

[0128] For example, the maximum drying time is set to 3 hours. In conjunction with the above, when the drying condition is determined to be met based on the detection data of the drying parameter detection device, and it is determined that the number of drying tests has not reached the first preset number, but the drying time has reached 3 hours, it can be determined that the load drying is over, that is, the drying program is stopped.

[0129] In some embodiments, determining that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program includes:

[0130] Based on the fact that the load of the drying program to be executed meets the low load condition, the drying program to be executed is determined to be the preset drying program.

[0131] The low-load condition is used to determine whether the load in the garment processing chamber meets the low-load condition. When the load in the garment processing chamber meets the low-load condition, the drying program to be executed can be determined to be the preset drying program.

[0132] In some implementations, the preset drying program can also be the system default drying program. When the drying program selected by the user matches the system default drying program, the drying program to be executed can be determined to be the preset drying program.

[0133] In some embodiments, satisfying the low-load condition based on the load of the drying process to be executed includes:

[0134] Once the test data confirms that the preset drying level has been reached, perform the shaking and scattering operation.

[0135] Based on the fact that the detection data did not meet the drying criteria, and the number of times the drying criteria were not met within the preset time was less than the second preset number, it was determined that the load of the drying program to be executed met the low load condition.

[0136] The preset drying level data refers to the detection data used to determine whether the clothes are at a preset drying level. For example, the preset drying level corresponds to a lower level of moisture in the clothes. Specifically, during the clothes drying process, detection data is acquired through a drying parameter detection device. When the detection data determines that the load of the clothes has reached the preset drying level, the clothes processing chamber is controlled to perform a shaking operation.

[0137] For example, during the shaking operation, the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber is controlled to vary between 30 and 60 rpm, and the drying cycle of the garment processing chamber is also controlled to vary. For example, the first cycle involves controlling the garment processing chamber to rotate clockwise for 2 minutes and stop for 1 minute, then counterclockwise for 2 minutes and stop for 1 minute; the second cycle involves controlling the garment processing chamber to rotate clockwise for 1 minute and stop for 30 seconds, then counterclockwise for 1 minute and stop for 30 seconds. The drying cycle of the garment processing chamber is controlled to vary between the first and second cycles.

[0138] Specifically, during the shaking and scattering operation, when the load in the clothing processing chamber meets the high load condition, the drying parameter detection device is more likely to come into contact with the clothing, thus detecting that the clothing is damp more often; when the load in the clothing processing chamber meets the low load condition, the drying parameter detection device is less likely to come into contact with the clothing, thus detecting that the clothing is damp less often.

[0139] Based on this, a second preset number of times can be set. During the shaking operation, if the clothes are determined not to be dry according to the detection data of the drying parameter detection device (i.e., the clothes are in a damp state), and the number of times the clothes are not dry within the preset time is less than the second preset number of times, it is determined that the load of the drying program to be executed meets the small load condition. If the number of times the clothes are not dry within the preset time is greater than or equal to the second preset number of times, it is determined that the load of the drying program to be executed meets the large load condition.

[0140] The judgment conditions can be understood with reference to the above text and will not be repeated here. The second preset number of times can be set according to the requirements of the control method of the clothing processing equipment provided in this embodiment of the present disclosure, and this embodiment of the present disclosure does not specifically limit it.

[0141] In some implementations, during the shaking operation, detection data can be acquired at set intervals, which helps reduce power consumption. It should be noted that, due to the probability of contact between the drying parameter detection device and the clothes, there may be instances where no detection data is acquired at set intervals, resulting in an empty drum detection.

[0142] In some embodiments, determining the drying state of the load based on the detection data from the drying parameter detection device includes:

[0143] Reduce the single continuous rotation time and / or rotation speed of the garment processing chamber, and acquire the detection data from the drying parameter detection device;

[0144] Once the detection data meets the drying criteria and the number of drying cycles reaches the third preset number, the load drying process is considered complete.

[0145] Reducing the single continuous rotation time of the garment processing chamber increases the number of reversals within the chamber. Increasing the number of reversals increases the probability of garments moving in different directions within the chamber, thus increasing the likelihood of the garments contacting the drying parameter detection device. Furthermore, reducing the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber improves the uniformity of drying. Therefore, when the load of the drying program to be executed meets the low-load condition, the single continuous rotation time and / or rotational speed of the garment processing chamber can be reduced.

[0146] Specifically, during the process of reducing the single continuous rotation time and / or speed of the garment processing chamber, the detection data of the drying parameter detection device is obtained. Based on the detection data, it is determined that the drying condition has been met, and the number of drying tests is recorded. When the number of drying tests reaches the third preset number, the load drying is determined to be over, which helps to improve the accuracy of garment drying.

[0147] The third preset number of times can be set according to the requirements of the control method of the clothing processing equipment provided in the embodiments of this disclosure.

[0148] In some embodiments, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes:

[0149] Based on the fact that the detection data does not meet the drying conditions, and the number of times the drying conditions are not met within the preset time is greater than or equal to the second preset number, it is determined that the load of the drying program to be executed meets the large load condition.

[0150] The garment handling equipment is controlled to perform drying operations according to the first drying cycle and / or the first rotation speed.

[0151] Specifically, as mentioned above, during the shaking operation, if the clothes do not meet the dryness criteria based on the detection data of the drying parameter detection device, and the number of times the dryness criteria are not met within the preset time is greater than or equal to the second preset number, it can be considered that the probability of the drying parameter detection device contacting the clothes is relatively high, and it can be determined that the load of the drying program to be executed meets the high load condition.

[0152] Specifically, after determining that the load of the drying program to be executed meets the high load condition, the garment handling equipment is controlled to perform the drying operation according to the first drying cycle and / or the first rotation speed. In the first drying cycle, the single continuous rotation time of the garment handling chamber is greater than the single continuous rotation time of the garment handling chamber under the low load condition; the first rotation speed is greater than the rotation speed of the garment handling chamber under the low load condition.

[0174] Based on the same inventive concept, this disclosure also provides a control device for a garment processing apparatus. The garment processing apparatus includes a drying parameter detection device disposed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber. This control device is used to execute the steps of the control method for any of the garment processing apparatuses provided in the above embodiments, achieving the corresponding beneficial effects.

[0175] Figure 5 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a control device for a garment processing equipment provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in Figure 5, the control device for the garment processing equipment includes: a determining module 51, used to determine that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program, and to determine the drying status of the load based on the detection data of the drying parameter detection device.

[0176] The control device for the garment processing equipment provided in the above embodiments can execute the control methods for the garment processing equipment provided in the above embodiments, and has the same or corresponding beneficial effects, which will not be described in detail here.

[0177] In related technologies, garment processing equipment is usually equipped with a detection device to determine the dryness of the garments based on the detection data. However, due to differences in the weight and material of the load, for example, when the load is small, the load will move regularly with the garment processing chamber at a certain speed, making it impossible for the detection device to contact the load. This results in low accuracy of the detection device in determining the dryness of the load.

[0178] Figure 6 is a flowchart illustrating a control method for a garment processing device according to an embodiment of this disclosure. This control method can be applied to application scenarios requiring the determination of the dryness of garments. The method can be executed by a control device for the garment processing device provided in this embodiment, which can be implemented using software and / or hardware. As shown in Figure 6, the method includes the following steps:

[0179] S1101. Based on the detection data of the detection device reaching the first preset condition within the first time, adjust the rotation speed of the clothing processing chamber.

[0180] In related technologies, the detection device is located on the front support of the garment processing equipment, which is situated at the front of the garment processing chamber. This results in a relatively large distance between the detection device and the load inside the garment processing chamber. For example, when garments are being dried against the wall, the detection device is essentially unable to reach the load. Therefore, when garments are being dried against the wall, it is impossible to use the detection device to detect drying parameters to determine the dryness of the garments.

[0181] To address this issue, this embodiment of the invention places a detection device within the garment processing chamber of the garment processing equipment. During the drying process, the detection device positioned within the processing chamber easily comes into contact with the garments, allowing it to detect drying parameters and determine the drying status of the load. This is particularly beneficial when the load being dried is small, as the detection device within the processing chamber can more easily contact the load, leading to a more accurate assessment of its dryness.

[0182] The detection device may be, for example, a conductivity detection device, such as a conductivity sensor. For example, Figure 7 is a schematic diagram of the physical structure of a garment processing device according to an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in Figure 7, the garment processing device includes a garment processing cylinder 1, lifting ribs 2, and a conductivity detection device (not shown in Figure 7). The garment processing cylinder 1 has a garment processing cavity 1a, and the lifting ribs 2 are disposed within the garment processing cavity 1a. Two lifting ribs 2 are shown exemplarily in Figure 2. The specific number of lifting ribs 2 can be selected according to the actual design of the garment processing device, and this embodiment of the disclosure does not limit this. At least a portion of the conductivity detection device is disposed on the outer surface of the lifting ribs 2.

[0183] Specifically, the conductivity detection device can detect the conductivity of the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 1a. The clothing processing equipment can determine the degree of drying of the clothing based on the conductivity detected by the device. The principle of the conductivity detection device is as follows: the load within the clothing processing chamber 1a contacts the two electrodes of the conductivity detection device, causing the conductivity detection circuit to conduct. Loads with different levels of moisture have different resistance values; that is, the moisture level of the load is related to the conductivity. The degree of drying is determined based on the conductivity. Specifically, the greater the moisture level of the load, the greater the detected conductivity. Therefore, by placing the conductivity detection device on the outer surface of the lifting rib, the device can contact the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 1a, thereby sensing the degree of drying of the clothing at close range and determining the drying status of the load based on the detection data.

[0184] For example, the garment processing equipment also includes a wireless power receiving module 3 disposed in the garment processing chamber 1a, which can power the conductivity detection device. The wireless power receiving module receives electrical energy wirelessly, thus eliminating the need for a conductive wire connection to an external power source and preventing interference with the conductive wire during the rotation of the garment processing chamber 1a. The wireless power receiving module 3 can provide power to the conductivity detection device, maintaining the energy required for its operation.

[0185] The garment processing equipment includes a housing 5 and a wireless power transmission module 4. The garment processing chamber 1a is located inside the housing 5, and the wireless power transmission module 4 can be mounted on the housing 5. The wireless power transmission module 4 and the wireless power receiving module 3 transmit electrical energy without contact, meaning that the wireless power transmission module 4 and the wireless power receiving module 3 can transmit electrical energy without being connected by wires.

[0186] For example, the above-mentioned garment processing device further includes a support shaft 6, which connects the garment processing cylinder 1 and the housing 5 to drive the garment processing cylinder 1 to rotate around its own rotation axis. The wireless power transmitting module 4 includes a transmitting coil, and the wireless power receiving module 3 includes a receiving coil. Both the transmitting and receiving coils are arranged around the transmission shaft 6. Energy can be transferred between the transmitting and receiving coils via a magnetic field. For example, the transmitting coil can generate a changing magnetic field, and the receiving coil can generate a current through electromagnetic induction, thereby achieving energy transfer.

[0187] In this embodiment, even when the clothing processing drum 1 is rotating, the wireless power transmitting module 4 and the wireless power receiving module 3 can still provide high-power electrical energy to electrical devices such as the conductivity detection device to meet their power needs.

[0188] In some embodiments, the detection device may also be a humidity detection device, such as a humidity sensor, which determines the degree of drying of the clothing by detecting the humidity value of the load, such as clothing. In other embodiments, other technical means well known to those skilled in the art may be used to obtain characterizing values ​​that can determine the degree of drying of the clothing, and this disclosure does not limit these methods.

[0189] Although placing the detection device on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber can improve the accuracy of judging the dryness of the load, if the load is too small during the drying process, some of the load will fall along a fixed trajectory as the garment processing chamber rotates, making it impossible for the detection device to touch this part of the load, thus greatly reducing the accuracy of judging the dryness of the load.

[0190] To address this issue, embodiments of this disclosure control the rotation of the garment processing chamber. The rotational speed of the garment processing chamber can be, for example, the speed corresponding to a conventional drying process. Detection data from a detection device within a first time period is acquired, and the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber is adjusted based on the detection data from the detection device within the first time period meeting a first preset condition.

[0191] For example, within the first time period T1, if the detection data of the detection device is less than a preset drying parameter, such as a conductivity value DG, and the detection data of the detection device is such as a conductivity value Da1, where Da1 can be the maximum value within the first time period T1, that is, if Da1 is less than DG within the first time period T1, it indicates that the load in the garment processing chamber is already dry, or that at the current rotation speed of the garment processing chamber, the movement trajectory of the load prevents the detection device from contacting the load. In this case, the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber should be adjusted to change the movement trajectory of the load when there is a load in the garment processing chamber, so that the detection device can contact the load.

[0192] It should be noted that the specific values ​​of the preset drying parameters can be set according to the actual usage requirements of the clothing processing equipment, and this embodiment does not limit this.

[0193] S1102. Based on the fact that the detection data of the detection device in the second time period does not meet the first preset condition, the preset drying program is executed.

[0194] The maximum load capacity that the preset drying program is suitable for handling is lower than the maximum load capacity that the conventional drying program is suitable for handling.

[0195] Garment handling equipment may include, for example, a standard drying program and preset drying programs. A standard drying program is the basic drying program of the garment handling equipment, which does not require special settings based on the material, function, or load of the garment. Preset drying programs are designed for specific materials, loads, or functions. For example, the maximum load capacity that a standard drying program can handle is 6 kg, 8 kg, 10 kg, or 12 kg, while the maximum load capacity that a preset drying program can handle is 2 kg, 3 kg, or 4 kg.

[0196] For example, after adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber, the detection data of the detection device is obtained in the second time period. For example, if the detection data of the detection device is greater than or equal to the preset drying parameters in the second time period T2, the preset drying program is executed.

[0197] For example, the preset drying parameters are, for example, the conductivity value DG, and the detection data of the detection device are, for example, the conductivity value Da2. The conductivity value Da2 can be the maximum value within the second time T2. That is, when Da2 is greater than or equal to DG within the second time T2, or when at least one conductivity value Da2 is greater than or equal to the conductivity value DG in the detection data of the detection device within the second time T2, it is determined that there is a humid load in the clothing processing chamber. When the clothing processing chamber rotates at the speed corresponding to the conventional drying program, the detection device does not come into contact with the load, indicating that the load in the clothing processing chamber is less than the load corresponding to the conventional drying program. The load in the clothing processing chamber is, for example, a small load such as socks, scarves, or baby clothes, and then the preset drying program is executed.

[0198] In this embodiment, the preset drying program is, for example, a low-load drying program. The drying parameters such as rotation speed and drying time of the preset drying program may differ from those of a conventional drying program. The drying parameters of the preset drying program can be set according to the usage of the garment processing equipment, and this embodiment does not limit this setting.

[0199] Clothing processing equipment may include, for example, dryers, washer-dryer combos, etc., but this disclosure does not limit the scope of the embodiments.

[0200] This embodiment of the present disclosure adjusts the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber when the detection data of the detection device reaches the first preset condition in the first time period, and executes a preset drying program when the detection data of the detection device does not reach the first preset condition in the second time period. This avoids the problem that the detection device cannot contact the load due to the movement trajectory of the load, which would result in low accuracy of the detection device in judging the dryness of the load, or even misjudgment as an empty load. This improves the accuracy of the detection device in judging the dryness of the load.

[0201] Optionally, adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber based on the detection data of the detection device reaching a first preset condition within a first time period includes: adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber based on the detection data of the detection device reaching the first preset condition within the period from the start of drying to the first time point.

[0202] For example, the detection device can perform data detection from the start of drying to a first time point. The start time point is, for example, the initial time point when the user clicks the drying button to start the rotation of the clothing processing chamber. The first time point is a time point in the early stage of the entire drying process, such as within 10 seconds, 30 seconds, or 60 seconds after the start of drying. Thus, by performing data detection in the early stage of drying, and based on the detection data within the first time point meeting a first preset condition, the device can determine whether the clothing processing chamber is in an empty load state or whether the movement trajectory of the load at the current rotation speed of the clothing processing chamber prevents the detection device from contacting the load, thereby adjusting the drying program in a timely manner to ensure the drying effect.

[0203] Optionally, if the detection data of the detection device in the second time period does not meet the first preset condition, a preset drying program is executed, including: if the detection data of the detection device in the period from the first time node to the second time node does not meet the first preset condition, a preset drying program is executed.

[0204] For example, the detection device can perform data detection between a first time point and a second time point, both of which are time points in the early stage of the entire drying process. Thus, by performing data detection in the early stage of drying and based on the fact that the detection data in the second time point does not meet a first preset condition, it is possible to determine whether the garment processing chamber is in an empty-load state in the early stage of drying, thereby enabling timely adjustment of the drying program to ensure the drying effect.

[0205] In some embodiments, the drying start time is t0, the first time node is t1, and the second time node is t2. During the time period from t0 to t1, the detection device performs data detection. Based on the detection data meeting the first preset condition, the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber is adjusted. During the time period from t1 to t2, the detection device performs data detection. Based on the detection data not meeting the first preset condition, a preset drying program is executed.

[0206] Optionally, adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber based on the detection data of the detection device reaching the first preset condition within a first time period includes: controlling the garment processing chamber to increase to a first rotation speed after stopping, based on the detection data of the detection device reaching the first preset condition within a first time period; wherein, the first rotation speed is less than the load-on-wall rotation speed; and the second time period is at least a portion of the time period during which the garment processing chamber increases to the first rotation speed after stopping.

[0207] For example, when the detection data from the detection device within the first time period reaches the first preset condition, it indicates that the load inside the garment processing chamber is dry, or that at the current rotational speed of the garment processing chamber, the load's trajectory is, for example, a regular falling motion, causing the detection device to be unable to contact the load. The garment processing chamber is then controlled to stop rotating, for example, the motor is controlled to stop rotating. After the garment processing chamber stops rotating, the rotational speed is increased to the first speed. For example, since the motor drives the garment processing chamber to rotate, the motor can be controlled to increase from the lowest rotational speed to the rotational speed corresponding to the first speed of the garment processing chamber. The first speed should be less than the load's wall-hugging speed to avoid the problem of the load moving along a fixed trajectory and being unable to contact the detection device.

[0208] In addition, the second time is set to at least a portion of the time period after the clothes processing chamber stops rotating and then increases to the first rotation speed. For example, a preset drying program can be executed if the detection data of the drying parameters during the entire time period after the clothes processing chamber stops rotating and then increases to the first rotation speed does not meet the first preset condition; or a preset drying program can be executed if the detection data of the drying parameters during a portion of the time period after the clothes processing chamber stops rotating and then increases to the first rotation speed does not meet the first preset condition. This embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0209] Therefore, by controlling the rotation of the garment processing chamber to increase to a first rotation speed after it stops, and the first rotation speed being less than the rotation speed at which the load adheres to the wall, the load with a small load capacity is prevented from moving along a fixed trajectory. During at least a portion of the time period after the garment processing chamber stops and the rotation speed is increased to the first rotation speed, the movement trajectory of the load can change, allowing the detection device to come into contact with the load, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection device in judging the dryness of the load.

[0210] Optionally, adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber based on the detection data of the detection device reaching the first preset condition within a first time period includes: adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber to a second rotation speed based on the detection data of the detection device reaching the first preset condition within a first time period; wherein the second rotation speed is different from the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber within the first time period; the second time period is at least a portion of the time period during which the garment processing chamber adjusts from the current rotation speed to the second rotation speed, or the second time period is at least a portion of the time period during which the garment processing chamber maintains the second rotation speed.

[0211] For example, if the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber in the first time period is, for example, the rotation speed corresponding to a conventional drying program, it indicates that the load in the garment processing chamber is already dry, or that at the current rotation speed of the garment processing chamber, the trajectory of the load is, for example, a regular falling motion, causing the detection device to be unable to contact the load. At this time, the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber is adjusted to a second rotation speed, which is different from the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber in the first time period. The trajectory of the load in the second time period is different from the trajectory of the load in the first time period, enabling the load to contact the detection device and improving the accuracy of the detection device in detecting the dryness of the load.

[0212] In some embodiments, the second time is set to at least a portion of the time period during which the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber is adjusted from the first time period to the second rotation speed. For example, a preset drying program can be executed if the detection data of the drying parameters during the entire time period during which the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber is adjusted from the first time period to the second rotation speed does not meet the first preset condition; or a preset drying program can be executed if the detection data of the drying parameters during a portion of the time period during which the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber is adjusted from the first time period to the second rotation speed does not meet the first preset condition. This embodiment of the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0213] In other embodiments, the second time period is, for example, at least a portion of the time during which the garment processing chamber maintains the second rotational speed. For instance, the garment processing chamber is controlled to continuously rotate at the second rotational speed, and a preset drying program is executed if the detection data from the detection device does not meet a first preset condition during the entire time period in which the garment processing chamber rotates at the second rotational speed. Alternatively, the preset drying program can be executed if the detection data of the drying parameters during the portion of the time period in which the garment processing chamber maintains the second rotational speed does not meet the first preset condition. Because the second rotational speed is different from the first rotational speed, controlling the garment processing chamber to continuously rotate at the second rotational speed can also make the movement trajectory of the load within the garment processing chamber different from the movement trajectory of the load during the first time period, allowing the detection device to contact the load and improving the accuracy of the detection device in detecting the dryness of the load.

[0214] Optionally, adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber to a second rotation speed based on the detection data of the detection device reaching a first preset condition within a first time period includes: reducing the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber to a second rotation speed based on the detection data of the detection device reaching the first preset condition within a first time period; wherein the second rotation speed is less than the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber within a first time period.

[0215] For example, if the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber in the first time period is, for example, the rotational speed corresponding to a conventional drying program, it indicates that the load in the garment processing chamber is already dry, or that at the current rotational speed of the garment processing chamber, the trajectory of the load is, for example, a regular falling motion, causing the load to be unable to contact the detection device. From the motion characteristics of the load, it is known that the higher the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber, the greater the probability of the load rotating against the wall, and the easier it is for the load to make a regular falling motion, making it even less likely to contact the detection device. Therefore, reducing the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber to a second rotational speed, which is lower than the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber in the first time period, makes the trajectory of the load different from that in the first time period, reducing the probability of the load making a regular falling motion, making it easier for the load to contact the detection device, and improving the accuracy of the detection device in detecting the dryness of the load.

[0216] Optionally, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes: determining to execute a conventional drying program based on the detection data of the detection device within a first time period not meeting a first preset condition.

[0217] Specifically, if the detection data from the detection device in the first time does not meet the first preset condition, it indicates that the load in the garment processing chamber is a humid load, and then the regular drying program can be executed.

[0218] For example, within the first time T1, the detection data of the detection device is, for example, the conductivity value Da1. The conductivity value Da1 can be the maximum value within the first time T1. The preset drying parameter is, for example, the conductivity value DG. That is, when Da1 is greater than or equal to DG within the first time T1, or when at least one conductivity value Da1 is greater than or equal to the conductivity value DG in the detection data of the detection device within the first time T1, a conventional drying procedure is executed.

[0219] Optionally, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes: determining the no-load state based on the detection data of the detection device reaching a first preset condition in a second time period.

[0220] Specifically, if the detection data of the detection device in the second time period reaches the first preset condition, it means that even if the rotation speed of the clothing processing chamber is adjusted, the detection device does not come into contact with the load. Therefore, it is determined that there is no load in the clothing processing chamber, which is an empty load state.

[0221] For example, during the second time T2, the detection data of the detection device is, for example, the conductivity value Da2. The conductivity value Da2 can be the maximum value during the second time T2. The preset drying parameter is, for example, the conductivity value DG. That is, during the second time T2, when Da2 is less than DG, it is determined that there is no load in the clothing processing chamber and it is in an empty load state.

[0222] Optionally, after determining that the state is no load, the method may also include: generating a no load notification message, and / or controlling the garment processing equipment to stop within a preset time.

[0223] Specifically, after determining the no-load state, to ensure users are promptly informed of the drying status, a no-load prompt message can be generated, thereby improving the user experience. For example, the display component on the garment processing equipment can be controlled to emit light, such as flashing or continuous light, to indicate that there is no load in the garment processing chamber; the display component can also display an image, which may include the no-load prompt text and other informative content; alternatively, the sound prompt component on the garment processing equipment can be controlled to emit an audible prompt to indicate that there is no load in the garment processing chamber.

[0224] After determining that the garment processing equipment is in an unloaded state, it can be controlled to shut down within a preset time. The preset time can be 0 minutes, in which case the equipment will stop immediately upon determining that it is in an unloaded state, thus improving its efficiency. Alternatively, the preset time can be T3 minutes, where T3 is not equal to 0, meaning that after determining that it is in an unloaded state, the equipment will be shut down after a certain period of time. This reduces the power consumption of the garment processing equipment and avoids the waste of power caused by the equipment continuing to run in an unloaded state.

[0225] Figure 8 is a schematic flowchart illustrating a control method for a garment processing device according to an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in Figure 8, the control method for the garment processing device includes:

[0230] S1305, Control the garment processing chamber to stop rotating.

[0231] S1306, Control the garment processing chamber to rise to the first rotation speed.

[0232] S1307. Obtain the detection data of the detection device in the second time period.

[0235] S1310, Perform the standard drying procedure.

[0236] S1311. Generate an empty load notification message and / or control the garment processing equipment to stop within a preset time.

[0237] The control method for the garment processing equipment provided in this embodiment adjusts the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber when the detection data of the detection device reaches the first preset condition in the first time period, and executes a preset drying program when the detection data of the detection device does not reach the first preset condition in the second time period. This avoids the problem that the detection device cannot contact the load due to the movement trajectory of the load, resulting in low accuracy of the detection device in judging the dryness of the load, or even misjudging it as an empty load. This improves the accuracy of the detection device in judging the dryness of the load.

Industrial applicability

[0251] The control method for a garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes: determining that the drying program to be executed is a preset drying program, and determining the drying status of the load based on the detection data of a drying parameter detection device. The garment processing device includes a drying parameter detection device disposed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber. The garment processing device includes a conventional drying program and a preset drying program. During the execution of the preset drying program, the drying parameter detection device disposed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber easily comes into contact with the garments, thereby detecting the drying parameters of the garments. Based on the drying parameters, it is determined whether the load is dry. When it is determined that the load is dry, the drying program can be terminated, thereby achieving accurate dryness judgment for loads such as garments. This avoids the problems in related technologies where timed drying methods are used to set long drying times to ensure the garments are dried, which can easily lead to over-drying, increased power consumption, and reduced user experience. This disclosure provides a control method for a garment processing device and the garment processing device itself. The garment processing device includes a detection device disposed within a garment processing chamber. The garment processing device includes a conventional drying program and a preset drying program. The control method includes: adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber based on the detection data of the detection device within a first time period reaching a first preset condition; and executing the preset drying program based on the detection data of the detection device within a second time period not reaching the first preset condition. The preset drying program corresponds to a lower upper limit for the load it is suitable for processing than the upper limit for the load it is suitable for processing in the conventional drying program. Therefore, by adjusting the rotation speed of the garment processing chamber when the detection data of the detection device reaches the first preset condition within the first time period, and executing the preset drying program when the detection data of the detection device within the second time period does not reach the first preset condition, the problem of the detection device failing to contact the load due to the load's movement trajectory, resulting in low accuracy in judging the dryness of the load, or even misjudging it as an empty load, is avoided. This improves the accuracy of the detection device in judging the dryness of the load.
