Description

Control methods, identification methods and equipment for garment processing equipment

[0001] This disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411149252.0, filed on August 20, 2024, entitled "Control Method and Clothing Processing Equipment",; Chinese Patent Application No. 202411582106.7, filed on November 7, 2024, entitled "Clothing Processing Equipment and Method for Identifying Operating Status Thereof", and Chinese Patent Application No. 202411060757.X, filed on August 2, 2024, entitled "Clothing Processing Equipment and Control Method Thereof, Storage Medium", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field

[0002] This disclosure relates to the field of clothing processing technology, and in particular to control methods, identification methods and equipment for clothing processing equipment. Background Technology

[0003] In the process of handling clothes, drum-type garment processing equipment uses lifting ribs to lift the clothes to a high point before they fall naturally, achieving the purpose of cleaning or shaking out the clothes. In certain scenarios, determining the actual position of the lifting ribs is important; for example, the lighting effect is better when the lights mounted on the lifting ribs are at their highest point. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a solution that can accurately determine the position of the lifting ribs.

[0004] In related technologies, clothing handling equipment, such as washing machines, includes a main control board (host computer) and a control board (slave computer) installed on the clothing handling chamber. After the clothing handling equipment is turned on, the host computer needs to send the status of the clothing handling equipment, such as standby or running status, to the slave computer so that the slave computer can perform the corresponding function according to the status of the clothing handling equipment.

[0005] However, when the host computer does not send the status of the clothing processing device to the slave computer, the slave computer cannot obtain the status of the clothing processing device, affecting its functionality. Therefore, how to obtain the status of the clothing processing device when the host computer does not send it to the slave computer becomes an urgent problem to be solved.

[0006] In related technologies, dryers only display the drying time during operation, which makes it impossible for users to intuitively obtain information about the load in the clothing processing equipment, such as the drying progress of the clothes, thus affecting the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0007] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0008] The technical problem this disclosure aims to solve is how to accurately determine the position of the lifting ribs, providing a basis for performing related actions based on the position of the lifting ribs. It avoids the problem in related technologies where the upper computer fails to send the status of the clothing processing device to the lower computer, affecting the functionality of the lower computer, and reduces the cumbersome interaction between the upper and lower computers in the clothing processing device. It also solves the problem in related technologies where the dryer only displays the drying time during operation, making it impossible for users to intuitively obtain information about the load in the clothing processing device, such as the drying progress of the clothes, thus affecting the user experience.

[0009] (II) Technical Solution

[0010] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this disclosure provides a control method, identification method, device, and storage medium for a garment processing device. It can accurately determine the position of the lifting rib using a low-cost acceleration sensor fixed to the rib, providing a basis for actions based on the rib's position and improving the user experience of the garment processing device. Acceleration data can be acquired through a control board (lower-level machine) on the garment processing chamber, thereby determining the state of the garment processing device based on this data. This avoids the problem in related technologies where the upper-level machine fails to send the garment processing device's state information, affecting the lower-level machine's functionality. Furthermore, this disclosure eliminates the need for the upper-level machine to send the garment processing device's state information to the lower-level machine, reducing the complexity of interaction between the upper and lower-level machines. This disclosure also allows for targeted control of the lighting device's display parameters based on the garment processing device's operating state, enabling the lighting device to be used as a functional device. When the clothing processing equipment is in the drying stage, the drying stage of the load can be determined based on the drying status parameters of the load. The display parameters of the lighting device are controlled according to the drying stage, and the lighting device is used as a representation device to display the drying progress of the load. This allows users to intuitively obtain the drying progress of the clothes by obtaining the display parameters of the lighting device, which helps to improve the user experience.

[0011] A first aspect is a control method for a garment processing device, wherein the garment processing device includes at least a garment processing chamber, a lifting rib, and an acceleration sensor, the lifting rib being fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber, the acceleration sensor being fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber, and the garment processing chamber rotating about a rotation axis; the method includes:

[0012] Obtain the acceleration detected by the accelerometer;

[0013] The position of the lifting rib is determined based on the acceleration.

[0014] Secondly, this disclosure also provides a method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device, the garment processing device including a garment processing chamber and an acceleration sensor, the acceleration sensor being located on the garment processing chamber; the operating status identification method includes:

[0015] Acquire the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer;

[0016] Based on the acceleration data, the state of the clothing processing equipment is determined.

[0017] Thirdly, this disclosure also provides a control method for a garment processing device, wherein a lighting device is installed inside the garment processing chamber of the garment processing device, and the lighting device is powered wirelessly; the control method includes:

[0018] The display parameters of the lighting device are controlled based on the operating status of the clothing processing equipment.

[0019] Fourthly, this disclosure also provides a garment processing device, including: a memory and a processor, wherein the processor executes the steps of the control method for the garment processing device as described in any one of the first aspects, the operating status identification method for the garment processing device as described in any one of the second aspects, and the control method for the garment processing device as described in any one of the third aspects by calling a program or instruction stored in the memory.

[0020] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0021] The technical solutions provided in this disclosure have the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0022] The garment processing device provided in this embodiment includes at least a garment processing chamber, a lifting rib, and an acceleration sensor. The lifting rib is fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber, and the acceleration sensor is also fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber. The garment processing chamber rotates around a rotation axis. The control method includes: acquiring the acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor; and determining the position of the lifting rib based on the acceleration. Based on the above solution, this application can accurately determine the position of the lifting rib using a low-cost acceleration sensor fixed to the lifting rib, providing a basis for related actions based on the position of the lifting rib, and improving the user experience of the garment processing device.

[0023] The method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes: acquiring acceleration data detected by the accelerometer; and determining the status of the garment processing device based on the acceleration data. Thus, acceleration data can be acquired through a control board (lower-level machine) mounted on the garment processing cavity, and the status of the garment processing device can be determined based on this data. In other words, the status of the garment processing device can be determined through the lower-level machine within the garment processing device, thereby avoiding the problem in related technologies where the upper-level machine fails to send the status of the garment processing device to the lower-level machine, affecting the functionality of the lower-level machine. Furthermore, this disclosure eliminates the need for the upper-level machine to send the status of the garment processing device to the lower-level machine, which helps reduce the complexity of interaction between the upper-level and lower-level machines in the garment processing device.

[0024] The control method for a garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes: controlling the display parameters of a lighting device based on the operating state of the garment processing device. Thus, by controlling the display parameters of the lighting device in a targeted manner according to the operating state of the garment processing device, the lighting device can be used as a device for different functions. Specifically, when the garment processing device is in the drying stage, the drying stage of the load can be determined based on the drying status parameters of the load. The display parameters of the lighting device are then controlled according to the drying stage, making the lighting device a representation device for displaying the drying progress of the load. This allows users to intuitively obtain the drying progress of the garments by obtaining the display parameters of the lighting device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0040] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this disclosure will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. Based on the embodiments of this disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.

[0041] Figure 1 is a schematic flowchart of a control method for a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 is a schematic structural diagram of a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of this application. The garment processing device includes at least a garment processing chamber, lifting ribs, and an acceleration sensor. The lifting ribs are fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber, and the acceleration sensor is fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber. The garment processing chamber rotates around a rotation axis. The control method includes:

[0042] S101. Obtain the acceleration detected by the accelerometer.

[0043] S102. Determine the position of the lifting rib based on acceleration.

[0044] As shown in Figure 2, the clothing processing device in this embodiment can be a drum-type clothing processing device, such as a drum washing machine, a drum dryer, etc. Lifting ribs 202 are fixed on the inner wall of its clothing processing chamber 201 to lift the clothing to a high point, allowing the clothing to fall freely, achieving the purpose of beating, shaking, etc.

[0045] During the rotation of the garment processing chamber 201 around the rotation axis, the acceleration detected by the accelerometer 203 varies depending on its position. For example, when the accelerometer 203 is at the highest point of the garment processing chamber, its acceleration in the vertical direction may be 0, while its acceleration in the horizontal direction may be g (where g is the acceleration due to gravity). In some embodiments, the accelerometer 203 is fixed to the lifting rib 202, so the actual position of the accelerometer 203 is the position of the lifting rib 202. Therefore, this embodiment can determine the position of the lifting rib based on the acceleration detected by the accelerometer. After determining the position of the accelerometer, more control actions can be implemented based on its position. For example, some functional components, also fixed to the lifting rib, may need to function at specific positions. This embodiment can control the operation of the corresponding functional components after determining that the lifting rib has reached the corresponding position, which is beneficial to improving the user experience of the garment processing equipment.

[0046] In some embodiments, the location of the accelerometer on the inner wall is different from the location of the lifting rib.

[0047] Determining the position of the lifting rib based on acceleration includes: determining the position of the lifting rib based on the positional relationship between the acceleration sensor and the lifting rib, as well as the acceleration.

[0048] In some other cases, the positions of the accelerometer and the lifting rib may differ. Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of another garment processing device structure provided in an embodiment of this application. As shown in Figure 3, for example, the included angle between the location of the lifting rib 202, the axis O1 of the garment processing chamber rotation shaft, and the location of the accelerometer 203 is 45°. The position of the lifting rib can also be determined when this included angle is known. For example, if the accelerometer is determined to be located in a specific position, the position of the lifting rib can be determined based on this included angle.

[0049] In some embodiments, acquiring the acceleration detected by the accelerometer includes: acquiring the acceleration detected by the accelerometer that is perpendicular to the rotation axis and parallel to the horizontal plane and / or the acceleration that is perpendicular to the rotation axis and perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0050] Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the relationship between acceleration and the position of the lifting rib provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 4 shows the curves for the X-axis and Z-axis, which are perpendicular to each other. In the mn rectangular coordinate system corresponding to the X-axis and Z-axis, the m-axis represents the phase, and the n-axis represents the magnitude of acceleration. Curve L1 is the acceleration curve for the Z-axis, and curve L2 is the acceleration curve for the X-axis. The X-axis, Z-axis, and Y-axis (not shown) are mutually perpendicular, and the Y-axis coincides with the extension direction of the rotation axis. From the curves shown in Figure 4, it can be understood that the accelerations of the X-axis and Z-axis are different when the position of the acceleration sensor 203 is different. Specifically, the acceleration of the X-axis is perpendicular to the rotation axis and parallel to the horizontal plane, and the acceleration of the Z-axis is perpendicular to the rotation axis and perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0051] Based on the characteristics of the aforementioned curves, in this embodiment of the application, at least one of the X-axis and Z-axis accelerations can (in some cases) determine the position of the accelerometer 203 according to the magnitude of the acceleration. For example, when the Z-axis acceleration is 0g and the X-axis acceleration is 1g, the position of the accelerometer 203 at the highest point in the garment processing chamber can be determined. Alternatively, when the X-axis acceleration is -1g and the Z-axis acceleration is 0g, the position of the accelerometer 203 at the lowest point in the garment processing chamber can be determined.

[0052] In summary, the embodiments of this application can determine the position of the acceleration sensor based on acceleration perpendicular to the rotation axis and parallel to the horizontal plane and / or acceleration perpendicular to the rotation axis and perpendicular to the horizontal plane, that is, to determine the position of the lifting rib.

[0053] In some embodiments, before acquiring the acceleration detected by the accelerometer, the process includes: determining the end of the drying stage.

[0054] Specifically, after the drying stage ends, the garment handling chamber gradually decelerates and eventually stops rotating. Once the garment handling chamber has completely stopped rotating, the drying process of the garment handling equipment is complete, and the user can open the garment handling chamber to remove the garments. At this point, raising the lifting ribs to a specific position might make it easier for the user to retrieve the garments. Therefore, the acceleration of the accelerometer in the garment handling chamber can be obtained after the drying stage ends. The acceleration detected by the accelerometer at the last moment after the garment handling chamber stops rotating can reflect the position of the accelerometer after the garment handling chamber stops rotating. Based on the above solution, the embodiments of this application can accurately determine the position of the accelerometer, and thus determine the position of the lifting ribs, without requiring any special operation of the garment handling equipment other than obtaining the acceleration through the accelerometer.

[0055] In some embodiments, the method further includes: determining that the position of the lifting rib has reached the target position and ending the drying process.

[0056] Specifically, once the lifting ribs have reached the target position, the drying program can be completely stopped, prompting the user to remove the clothes. At this point, the user experience is better.

[0057] In some embodiments, the method further includes: determining that the position of the lifting rib is not at the target position, controlling the rotation speed of the clothing processing chamber to be less than or equal to a rotation speed threshold, and returning to perform the acquisition of acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor.

[0058] Specifically, the process in the above embodiment can be understood as follows: after the drying stage ends and the garment processing chamber naturally stops rotating, the position of the lifting ribs is determined. The lifting ribs may stop at the target position, in which case no additional operation is required on the garment processing chamber. However, if the lifting ribs are not at the target position, the garment processing chamber can be restarted to continue rotating, stopping the lifting ribs at the target position again. During this process, the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber can be controlled to be less than or equal to a rotational speed threshold. Specifically, the inventors discovered through research that the vibration generated during the rotation of the garment processing chamber can produce stray signal interference to the acceleration detected by the accelerometer. Generally speaking, the higher the rotational speed of the garment processing chamber, the greater the vibration generated, and the greater the interference to the acceleration detected by the accelerometer.

[0059] Therefore, in this embodiment, during the process of controlling the clothing processing chamber to rotate again, the rotational speed of the clothing processing chamber can be controlled to be less than or equal to a rotational speed threshold. The rotational speed threshold can be a preset value, the purpose of which is to ensure that the clothing processing chamber can rotate with minimal vibration, avoiding excessive stray signals interfering with the detected acceleration. Specifically, the rotational speed threshold can be 20 rpm. In some scenarios, it may also be other values. When the rotational speed of the clothing processing chamber is less than or equal to this threshold, it will not fail to rotate due to excessively low speed, nor will it generate excessive stray signals. Thus, this embodiment can accurately determine the acceleration and stop the clothing processing chamber at the target position.

[0060] In some embodiments, the method further includes: determining the braking position based on the current rotational speed of the garment processing chamber.

[0061] Once the lifting rib reaches the braking position, the motor is controlled to stop, allowing the lifting rib to slide to the target position and stop rotating in the clothing processing chamber.

[0062] Specifically, the inventors discovered through research that the garment processing chamber will still experience a certain amount of natural sliding after it stops rotating. If the amount of natural sliding is large, it is possible that the garment processing chamber will exceed the ideal target position due to the natural sliding effect after it stops rotating, resulting in poor performance of the functional components. Therefore, in this embodiment, the braking position can be determined based on the current rotation speed of the garment processing chamber. When the lifting rib reaches the braking position, the motor is controlled to stop running, and the position of the lifting rib after the garment processing chamber stops sliding is the target position.

[0063] Based on the above solution, the embodiments of this application can eliminate the influence of the garment processing chamber naturally sliding during the stopping rotation process, so that the garment processing chamber can stop more accurately at the target position.

[0064] In some embodiments, the garment processing device further includes at least one functional component fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber; the method further includes: controlling the functional component to perform a preset operation based on the lifting rib reaching the target position.

[0065] Specifically, the inner wall of current garment processing equipment is also equipped with specific functional components. These functional components are defined as any components fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber that can perform functions, such as providing utility for processing garments or for user use.

[0066] Different functional components may function at different locations. For example, some functional components may function when located at the highest point in the garment processing cavity, while others may function when located at the lowest point. In this embodiment, when the lifting rib reaches the corresponding target position (which is actually the functional component reaching the target position), the corresponding functional component is controlled to perform a preset operation, thereby maximizing its functionality. Under the above solution, this embodiment allows the lifting rib to reach the target position, which enables the functional component to perform its function more effectively, and then controls the functional component to perform the preset operation. Therefore, the functional components can achieve better functional effectiveness.

[0067] In some embodiments, the functional components include a lighting device and / or a spraying device; controlling the functional components to perform preset operations based on the lifting rib reaching the target position includes: controlling the lighting device to perform a lighting operation based on the lifting rib reaching the target position, and / or controlling the spraying device to perform a spraying operation;

[0068] The target position is a position where the lowest point of the clothing processing chamber is greater than a first preset distance, so that the clothing inside the clothing processing chamber is shaken and falls off.

[0069] Specifically, the main function of the lighting device is to provide illumination when the user opens the clothing processing chamber to retrieve clothing after the chamber stops rotating. Therefore, the target position can be the highest point within the clothing processing chamber, with the distance between the target position and the lowest point equal to the diameter of the chamber. Alternatively, the distance between the target position and the highest point can be greater than three-quarters of the chamber's diameter, meaning the lighting device is positioned vertically above the clothing processing chamber. In this case, the target position is greater than the first preset distance from the lowest point, the clothing is at the bottom of the chamber, and the lighting device provides good illumination for the clothing inside. Conversely, if the lighting device is located at, for example, the lowest point of the chamber, the clothing is generally at the bottom as well. This would obscure the lighting device, preventing it from providing illumination and making it difficult to see inside the chamber in low-light conditions, thus affecting the user experience.

[0070] The main function of spray equipment is to spray high-temperature water mist onto clothes after they have reached a certain drying stage, achieving a similar effect to ironing. For optimal spraying, the equipment needs to be positioned high, with the clothes at the bottom of the garment processing chamber. Conversely, if the clothes cover the spray equipment, the spraying will be ineffective.

[0071] Therefore, in the case of the above-mentioned lighting equipment and / or spraying equipment, and other similar functional components that need to be located at a higher position to function, the embodiments of this application can determine that the lifting rib has reached the target position and control the clothing processing chamber to stop rotating, so that the lighting equipment and / or spraying equipment can achieve better performance.

[0072] More specifically, referring to Figure 4 and its corresponding embodiment, for example, the target position is the highest point in the garment processing chamber, with an X-axis acceleration of 1g and a Z-axis acceleration of 0g. Therefore, the garment processing chamber can be controlled to stop rotating when the X-axis acceleration is determined to be 1g and the Z-axis acceleration to be 0g. Alternatively, considering that the detected acceleration value of the garment processing chamber during rotation may not be absolutely precise, the target position of the lifting rib can be determined in the form of a numerical range. For example, if the target position is the highest point in the garment processing chamber, the lifting rib can be determined to be at the target position when the X-axis acceleration is determined to be (1±a)g and the Z-axis acceleration to be (0±a)g. This avoids the influence of accuracy errors.

[0073] In the scenarios described above for lighting equipment and / or spraying equipment, the rotational speed of the garment handling chamber can be controlled to be less than or equal to a rotational speed threshold, such as less than 20 rpm, before acquiring the acceleration. This not only reduces the interference with the accuracy of the acquired acceleration caused by excessively high rotational speed, but also makes it easier for the garment handling chamber to stop at the target position.

[0074] In some embodiments, the functional component includes a humidity sensing device; controlling the functional component to perform a preset operation based on the lifting rib reaching the target position includes: controlling the humidity sensing device to sense the humidity information of the clothing based on the lifting rib reaching the target position.

[0075] The target position is a distance less than or equal to the lowest point of the garment processing chamber, so that the garment inside the garment processing chamber is cut out of the lifting rib.

[0076] Specifically, for humidity sensing devices, it is generally not necessary to stop the clothing processing chamber when detecting the humidity of clothing; detection can be performed while the clothing processing chamber is rotating.

[0077] Humidity sensing devices typically require contact with clothing to accurately detect its humidity. Therefore, the target location can be the lowest point within the clothing handling chamber. In terms of location range, this could be, for example, a distance between the target location and the lowest point of the clothing handling chamber that is less than one-quarter of the chamber's diameter. When both the clothing and the lifting ribs are located below the clothing handling chamber, and the clothing is secured to the lifting ribs, the humidity sensing device can detect the clothing's humidity information relatively accurately.

[0078] Similarly, referring to Figure 4 again, for example, if the target position is the lowest point in the clothing processing chamber, its corresponding X-axis acceleration is -1g and Z-axis acceleration is 0g. Therefore, the humidity sensing device can be controlled to sense the humidity information of the clothing when the X-axis acceleration is -1g and the Z-axis acceleration is 0g. Alternatively, considering that the detected acceleration value during the rotation of the clothing processing chamber will not be absolutely accurate, the position of the lifting rib can also be determined in the form of a numerical range. For example, if the target position is the lowest point in the clothing processing chamber, the position of the lifting rib can be determined when the X-axis acceleration is (-1±a)g and the Z-axis acceleration is (0±a)g. This avoids the influence of accuracy errors.

This method is applicable to application scenarios requiring the identification of the operating status of garment processing equipment. This method can be executed by the garment processing equipment operating status identification device provided in this embodiment of the disclosure, which can be implemented using software and / or hardware. As shown in Figure 5, the method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device includes the following steps:

[0080] Figure 5 is a flowchart illustrating a method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device according to an embodiment of this disclosure. This method is applicable to application scenarios requiring the identification of the operating status of garment processing equipment. This method can be executed by the garment processing equipment operating status identification device provided in this embodiment of the disclosure, which can be implemented using software and / or hardware. As shown in Figure 5, the method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device includes the following steps:

[0081] S1101. Acquire acceleration data detected by the accelerometer.

[0082] The garment handling equipment can be, for example, a dryer, a dry-clean combo, or other equipment. The garment handling equipment includes a garment handling chamber and an accelerometer, with the accelerometer located on the garment handling chamber.

[0083] For example, the garment processing equipment is equipped with a wireless power transmission module, which includes a transmitting coil and a receiving coil. When the garment processing equipment is powered off, the wireless power transmission module is not turned on; when the garment processing equipment is powered on, the main control board of the garment processing equipment controls the relay to simultaneously turn on the wireless power transmission module to power the accelerometer, at which point the accelerometer begins to work.

[0084] For example, a lifting rib is provided inside the garment processing cavity, and an acceleration sensor can be placed on the lifting rib. In other embodiments, the acceleration sensor can also be installed in other places inside or outside the garment processing cavity, as long as the acceleration data detected by the acceleration sensor changes accordingly when the garment processing cavity rotates.

[0085] Specifically, this step involves acquiring acceleration data detected by an accelerometer to prepare for subsequent steps.

[0086] S1102. Determine the status of the clothing processing equipment based on acceleration data.

[0087] Specifically, in this step, the state of the clothing processing equipment is determined by analyzing the acceleration data obtained in S1101.

[0088] In related technologies, after a clothing handling device, such as a dryer, is turned on, the dryer's main control board (host computer) needs to send the status of the clothing handling device, such as standby or running status, to the control board (slave computer) installed on the clothing handling chamber. However, when the host computer fails to send the status of the clothing handling device to the slave computer, the slave computer cannot obtain the status of the clothing handling device, affecting the functionality of the slave computer.

[0089] Compared to related technologies, the embodiments of this disclosure acquire acceleration data detected by an accelerometer and determine the state of the garment processing equipment based on this acceleration data. Therefore, in this embodiment, after the garment processing equipment is powered on, the main control board (host computer) of the garment processing equipment does not need to send the state of the garment processing equipment to the control board (slave computer) installed on the garment processing cavity. The slave computer can determine the state of the garment processing equipment based on the acquired acceleration data, thereby avoiding the problem in related technologies where the host computer's failure to send the state of the garment processing equipment to the slave computer affects the functionality of the slave computer.

[0090] In addition, the embodiments disclosed herein do not require the host computer of the clothing processing device to send the status of the clothing processing device to the slave computer, which helps to reduce the complexity of interaction between the host computer and the slave computer in the clothing processing device.

[0091] The method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes: acquiring acceleration data detected by the accelerometer; and determining the status of the garment processing device based on the acceleration data. Thus, acceleration data can be acquired through a control board (lower-level machine) mounted on the garment processing cavity, and the status of the garment processing device can be determined based on this data. In other words, the status of the garment processing device can be determined through the lower-level machine within the garment processing device, thereby avoiding the problem in related technologies where the upper-level machine fails to send the status of the garment processing device to the lower-level machine, affecting the functionality of the lower-level machine. Furthermore, this disclosure eliminates the need for the upper-level machine to send the status of the garment processing device to the lower-level machine, which helps reduce the complexity of interaction between the upper-level and lower-level machines in the garment processing device.

[0092] In some embodiments, acquiring acceleration data detected by an accelerometer includes: acquiring acceleration data in a first direction and / or acceleration data in a second direction detected by the accelerometer; wherein the first direction and the second direction are both perpendicular to the rotation axis of the garment processing cavity, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0093] Specifically, Figure 6 is a schematic diagram illustrating the working principle of a garment processing device provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in Figure 6, the garment processing device may include a garment processing chamber 201, a lifting rib 202, and an acceleration sensor 203. The lifting rib 202 is fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber 201, and the acceleration sensor 203 fixes the lifting rib 202. The garment processing chamber rotates around a rotation axis. Exemplarily, the first direction is shown in the direction of the X-axis, and the second direction is shown in the direction of the Z-axis.

[0094] The clothing processing device in this embodiment can be a drum-type clothing processing device, such as a drum washing machine, a drum dryer, etc. During the rotation of the clothing processing chamber 201 around the rotation axis, the acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor 203 varies depending on its location.

[0095] For example, as shown in Figure 4, the acceleration curves in the first direction (X-axis) and the acceleration curves in the second direction (Z-axis) are illustrated respectively.

[0096] In this system, the X-axis and Z-axis are perpendicular to each other. In the mn rectangular coordinate system corresponding to the X-axis and Z-axis, the m-axis represents the phase, and the n-axis represents the magnitude of the acceleration. Curve L1 is the acceleration curve of the Z-axis, and curve L2 is the acceleration curve of the X-axis. The X-axis, Z-axis, and Y-axis (not shown) are mutually perpendicular, and the Y-axis coincides with the extension direction of the rotation axis. As can be understood from the curves shown in Figure 4, the accelerations of the X-axis and Z-axis are different when the location of the accelerometer 203 is different.

[0097] Thus, acceleration data in the first direction and / or the second direction detected by the accelerometer are obtained, that is, acceleration data in the two axes (X-axis and Z-axis) detected by the accelerometer are obtained.

[0098] Optionally, since the Y-axis coincides with the rotation axis of the garment processing chamber, the acceleration data in the Y-axis direction will not change when the garment processing chamber rotates. Based on this, embodiments of this disclosure acquire acceleration data in the first direction and / or acceleration data in the second direction, and determine the state of the garment processing device based on the variable acceleration data.

[0099] For example, as shown in Figures 6 and 4, when the garment processing chamber rotates one revolution, the acceleration change data in the acceleration curve L2 in the first direction (X-axis) is one cycle, and the acceleration change data in the acceleration curve L1 in the second direction (Z-axis) is one cycle.

[0100] For example, as shown in FIG4, when the accelerometer 203 is located at the highest point in the clothing processing cavity 201, the acceleration in the first direction (X-axis) is 1g (g is the acceleration due to gravity), which is the maximum value in one cycle of acceleration data change; when the accelerometer 203 is located at the lowest point in the clothing processing cavity, the acceleration in the first direction (X-axis) is -1g, which is the minimum value in one cycle of acceleration data change.

[0101] In some embodiments, determining the state of the clothing processing device based on acceleration data includes: determining that the clothing processing device has entered a standby state based on the fact that the difference in acceleration data detected by the acceleration sensor within a first preset time period is less than a first threshold.

[0102] Specifically, the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period is acquired. The acceleration data includes acceleration data in a first direction and / or acceleration data in a second direction detected by the accelerometer.

[0103] If the difference in acceleration data in the first direction is less than the first threshold within a first preset time, that is, the acceleration data in the first direction fluctuates within a small range within a first preset time, it is considered that the clothing processing chamber is not rotating, and the clothing processing equipment can be determined to have entered the standby state.

[0104] If the difference in acceleration data in the second direction is less than the first threshold within a first preset time, that is, the acceleration data in the second direction fluctuates within a small range within a first preset time, it is considered that the clothing processing chamber is not rotating, and the clothing processing equipment can be determined to enter the standby state.

[0105] In some embodiments, determining that the clothing processing device enters a standby state based on the difference in acceleration data changes detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period being less than a first threshold includes: determining that the clothing processing device enters a standby state based on the difference between the maximum and minimum values ​​of acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period being less than a first threshold.

[0106] Specifically, acceleration data in a first direction detected by the accelerometer can be acquired within a first preset time period. The acceleration data in the first direction may include a maximum value A. 1max and minimum value A 1min Obtain the maximum value A from the acceleration data in the first direction. 1max and minimum value A 1min The difference is (A) 1max -A 1min If (A) 1max -A 1minIf the value is less than the first threshold, it is considered that the clothing processing chamber is not rotating, and the clothing processing equipment can be determined to be in standby mode.

[0107] Similarly, acceleration data in the second direction detected by the accelerometer can be acquired within a first preset time period. The acceleration data in the second direction may include a maximum value A. 2max and minimum value A 2min Obtain the maximum value A from the acceleration data in the second direction. 2max and minimum value A 2min The difference is (A) 2max -A 2min If (A) 2max -A 2min If the value is less than the first threshold, it is considered that the clothing processing chamber is not rotating, and the clothing processing equipment can be determined to be in standby mode.

[0108] The first threshold can be set according to the requirements of the clothing processing equipment operation status identification method provided in the embodiments of this disclosure, and is not specifically limited here.

[0109] In some embodiments, the method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device further includes: determining that the garment processing device has entered an operating state based on the fact that the difference in acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period is greater than or equal to a first threshold.

[0110] Specifically, the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period is acquired. The acceleration data includes acceleration data in a first direction and / or acceleration data in a second direction detected by the accelerometer.

[0111] If the difference in acceleration data in the first direction is detected to be greater than or equal to the first threshold within a first preset time, that is, if the acceleration data in the first direction fluctuates within a large range within a first preset time, it can be considered that the clothing processing chamber has rotated, and the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state.

[0112] Similarly, if the difference in acceleration data in the second direction is detected to be greater than or equal to the first threshold within the first preset time, that is, if the acceleration data in the second direction fluctuates within a large range within the first preset time, it is considered that the clothing processing chamber has rotated, and the clothing processing equipment can be determined to have entered the operating state.

[0113] In some embodiments, determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state based on the difference in acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period being greater than or equal to a first threshold includes: determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state based on the difference between the maximum and minimum values ​​of acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period being greater than or equal to a first threshold.

[0114] Specifically, acceleration data in a first direction detected by the accelerometer can be acquired within a first preset time period. The acceleration data in the first direction may include a maximum value A. 1max and minimum value A 1min Obtain the maximum value A from the acceleration data in the first direction. 1max and minimum value A 1min The difference is (A) 1max -A 1min If (A) 1max -A 1min If the value is greater than or equal to the first threshold, it is considered that the clothing processing chamber has rotated, and the clothing processing equipment can be determined to have entered the operating state.

[0115] Similarly, acceleration data in the second direction detected by the accelerometer can be acquired within a first preset time period. The acceleration data in the second direction may include a maximum value A. 2max and minimum value A 2min Obtain the maximum value A from the acceleration data in the second direction. 2max and minimum value A 2min The difference is (A) 2max -A 2min If (A) 2max -A 2min If the value is greater than or equal to the first threshold, it is considered that the clothing processing chamber has rotated, and the clothing processing equipment can be determined to have entered the operating state.

[0116] In some embodiments, after the difference in acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period is greater than or equal to a first threshold, the method for identifying the operating status of the garment processing device further includes: determining that the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a second preset time period is greater than a second threshold, and the minimum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time period is less than a third threshold; wherein, the second preset time period is the time required for the garment processing chamber to rotate one revolution.

[0117] Specifically, due to some special circumstances, such as, but not limited to, the user manually rotating the clothing processing chamber, the difference in acceleration data detected by the acceleration sensor within a first preset time period may be greater than or equal to the first threshold, which may lead to a misjudgment that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state.

[0118] To optimize the situation where misjudgments occur due to special circumstances in determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state, this embodiment of the present disclosure, after determining that the difference in acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period is greater than or equal to a first threshold, acquires acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a second preset time period. If the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time period is greater than a second threshold, and the minimum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time period is less than a third threshold, the clothing processing equipment is determined to have entered the operating state. This helps to optimize the situation where misjudgments occur due to special circumstances in determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state.

[0119] The second preset time is the duration of one rotation of the garment processing chamber. When the garment processing chamber rotates one revolution, the accelerometer sensor, which rotates with the chamber, also rotates one revolution. During one revolution of the accelerometer sensor, the detected acceleration value completes one cycle (as shown in Figure 3). Within one acceleration data cycle, the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer sensor in the first or second direction will necessarily have a fixed maximum value (e.g., 1g) and a minimum value (e.g., -1g).

[0120] Based on this, a second threshold close to the maximum value and a third threshold close to the minimum value are set. If the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time is greater than the second threshold and the minimum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time is less than the third threshold, it can be determined that the clothing processing chamber has rotated, thereby determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state. This is beneficial for optimizing the situation where misjudgment occurs in determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state due to special circumstances.

[0121] For example, referring to Figure 4, the maximum and minimum values ​​of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer in the first direction are obtained within a second preset time period. The maximum value (e.g., 1g) can be detected when the accelerometer passes the highest point of its position during the rotation of the clothing processing chamber, and the minimum value (e.g., -1g) can be detected when the accelerometer passes the lowest point of its position during the rotation of the clothing processing chamber.

[0122] In some embodiments, determining that the clothing processing device has entered a standby state includes: determining that the clothing processing device has entered an operating state based on the fact that the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within N consecutive second preset time periods is greater than a second threshold, and the minimum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time period is less than a third threshold; wherein, N is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0123] Specifically, as mentioned above, when there is, for example but not limited to, when the user manually rotates the clothing processing chamber, the rotation speed of the clothing processing chamber is relatively slow. During the second preset time, the clothing processing chamber may rotate half a revolution, as shown in Figure 4. For example, during the second preset time, the clothing processing chamber rotates from the highest point of the location of the accelerometer to the lowest point of the location of the accelerometer. At this time, the accelerometer can detect the maximum value (e.g., 1g) and the minimum value (e.g., -1g) in the first direction, which may lead to a misjudgment of whether the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state.

[0124] Based on this, the embodiments of this disclosure determine that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state based on the fact that the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a second preset time period is greater than a second threshold and the minimum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time period is less than a third threshold, thereby further improving the accuracy of determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state.

[0125] For example, N can be set to 3. Assuming the garment processing equipment enters the operating state, since the second preset time is the time it takes for the garment processing chamber to rotate once, the accelerometer rotates once in each second preset time, and the detected acceleration value is exactly one cycle. Thus, in three consecutive second preset time periods, the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer is greater than the second threshold, and the minimum value is less than the third threshold.

[0126] However, assuming that the user manually rotates the clothing processing chamber for three consecutive second preset time periods, the rotation speed of the clothing processing chamber is relatively slow, and the rotation speed of the clothing processing chamber by the user's hand is uneven. It cannot be guaranteed that the accelerometer will rotate one revolution in each second preset time period. Therefore, it is impossible to obtain the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer that is greater than the second threshold and the minimum value that is less than the third threshold in all three consecutive second preset time periods.

[0127] Therefore, in this embodiment of the present disclosure, if the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a second preset time period is greater than a second threshold and the minimum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within the second preset time period is less than a third threshold, it can be determined that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state, thereby improving the accuracy of determining that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state.

[0128] In some embodiments, a conductivity sensor is also provided on the garment processing chamber; after determining that the garment processing equipment has entered the operating state, the method for identifying the operating state of the garment processing equipment further includes: acquiring the detection data of the conductivity sensor;

[0129] The drying status of clothes is determined based on the detection data of the conductivity sensor.

[0130] Specifically, after confirming that the garment processing equipment has entered the operating state, the conductivity sensor can be activated. The conductivity sensor collects data on the load in the garment processing chamber, such as the humidity and conductivity of the garments, and thus determines the drying status of the garments based on the conductivity data. Once it is determined that the garments are dry, the result is uploaded to the main control board (host computer) of the garment processing equipment, which can then control the garment drying process to terminate.

[0131] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 7 exemplarily illustrates a detailed flowchart of a method for identifying the operating status of a garment processing device provided by an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in Figure 7, the method includes the following steps:

[0132] S401, Begin.

[0138] S407. Confirm that the garment processing equipment is in operation.

[0139] S408. It is determined that there are special circumstances with the garment processing equipment.

[0140] Based on the same inventive concept, this disclosure also provides an operating status identification device for a garment processing device. The garment processing device includes a garment processing chamber and an acceleration sensor, the acceleration sensor being located on the garment processing chamber. This operating status identification device for the garment processing device is used to execute the steps of any of the operating status identification methods for garment processing devices provided in the above embodiments, achieving the corresponding beneficial effects.

[0141] Figure 8 is a schematic diagram of the operating status identification device for a garment processing equipment provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in Figure 8, the operating status identification device for the garment processing equipment includes: an acquisition module 51, used to acquire acceleration data detected by the acceleration sensor; and a determination module 52, used to determine the status of the garment processing equipment based on the acceleration data.

[0142] In some embodiments, the acquisition module 51 is used for:

[0143] Acquire acceleration data in a first direction and / or acceleration data in a second direction detected by the accelerometer;

[0144] Wherein, both the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to the rotation axis of the clothing processing cavity, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0145] In some embodiments, the determining module 52 is configured to:

[0148] If the difference between the maximum and minimum acceleration data detected by the acceleration sensor within a first preset time period is less than a first threshold, the clothing processing equipment is determined to enter a standby state.

[0149] In some embodiments, the determining module 52 is configured to:

[0150] If the difference in acceleration data detected by the acceleration sensor within a first preset time period is greater than or equal to a first threshold, it is determined that the clothing processing equipment has entered the operating state.

[0151] In some embodiments, the determining module 52 is configured to:

[0152] If the difference between the maximum and minimum acceleration data detected by the acceleration sensor within a first preset time period is greater than or equal to a first threshold, the clothing processing equipment is determined to enter the operating state.

[0153] In some embodiments, the determining module 52 is configured to:

[0154] After the difference in acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a first preset time period is greater than or equal to a first threshold, it is determined that the maximum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a second preset time period is greater than a second threshold, and the minimum value of the acceleration data detected by the accelerometer within a second preset time period is less than a third threshold.

[0155] The second preset time is the time required for the clothing processing chamber to rotate once.

[0158] Where N is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0159] In some embodiments, the acquisition module 51 is used to acquire detection data from the conductivity sensor;

[0160] The determination module 52 is used to determine the drying status of the clothes based on the detection data of the conductivity sensor.

[0161] The operating status identification device for the clothing processing equipment provided in the above embodiments can perform the operating status identification of the clothing processing equipment provided in the above embodiments, and has the same or corresponding beneficial effects, which will not be described in detail here.

[0162] Based on the above embodiments, this disclosure also provides a clothing processing device. The clothing processing device can be, for example, a dryer, etc., and this disclosure does not limit the scope of the device. Figure 9 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a clothing processing device provided in this disclosure. As shown in Figure 9, the clothing processing device includes a clothing processing chamber 201, a control board 12 located on the clothing processing chamber 201, and an acceleration sensor 203. The control board 12 is communicatively connected to the acceleration sensor 203.

[0163] The control board 12 is used to execute the steps of the operation status identification method of the clothing processing equipment as described in the above embodiments, and therefore has the beneficial effects of the above embodiments, which will not be repeated here.

[0164] In other embodiments, the garment processing device may also include a control panel, a drive motor, and other structural and functional components known to those skilled in the art, which are not described in detail or limited herein.

[0165] Figure 10 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 the control device of the garment processing device provided in this embodiment of the disclosure, which can be implemented using software and / or hardware. As shown in Figure 10, the control of the garment processing device includes the following steps:

[0166] S2101. Based on the operating status of the clothing processing equipment, control the display parameters of the lighting device.

[0167] The garment processing equipment can be, for example, a dryer, a dry-clean-dry combo, or other equipment. A lighting device is installed inside the garment processing chamber of the garment processing equipment, and the lighting device can be powered wirelessly. For example, the garment processing equipment is equipped with a wireless function component that wirelessly powers the lighting device.

[0168] Specifically, this step involves acquiring the operating status of the garment processing equipment and controlling the corresponding display parameters of the lighting device based on that status. These display parameters may include at least one of color gamut, color temperature, luminous intensity, and display frequency.

[0169] Therefore, the display parameters of the lighting device can be controlled in a targeted manner according to the operating status of the clothing processing equipment, so that the lighting device can be used as a different functional device.

[0170] For example, when the clothing processing equipment is in the standby stage as described below, the light of the control light device is displayed with a first display parameter that has a larger light intensity, and the light device is used as a lighting device, as detailed below.

[0171] For example, when the clothing processing equipment is in the drying operation stage as described below, the second display parameter corresponding to the lighting device is controlled according to the drying status parameters of the load. The lighting device can be used as a characterization device to display the drying progress of the load, as detailed below.

[0172] The control method for a garment processing device provided in this disclosure includes: controlling the display parameters of a lighting device based on the operating state of the garment processing device. Thus, by controlling the display parameters of the lighting device in a targeted manner according to the operating state of the garment processing device, the lighting device can be used as a device for different functions. Specifically, when the garment processing device is in the drying stage, the drying stage of the load can be determined based on the drying status parameters of the load. The display parameters of the lighting device are then controlled accordingly for each drying stage, making the lighting device a representation device for displaying the drying progress of the load. This allows users to intuitively obtain the drying progress of the garments by obtaining the display parameters of the lighting device, thereby improving the user experience.

[0173] In some embodiments, controlling the display parameters of the lighting device based on the operating status of the garment processing equipment includes:

[0174] Once the garment processing equipment is determined to be in standby mode, the lighting device is controlled to display the first display parameter to illuminate the garment processing chamber.

[0175] Specifically, when a user starts using the garment processing equipment to dry a load such as clothes, the garment processing equipment needs to be turned on. At this time, the garment processing equipment is in standby mode, and the light from the controllable lighting device can be displayed according to a first display parameter. The first display parameter includes at least light intensity; the light intensity of the lighting device when the garment processing equipment is in standby mode is greater than the light intensity when the garment processing equipment is in drying operation mode.

[0176] For example, when the garment processing equipment is in standby mode, the light from the lighting device can be selected to display a brighter color, such as, but not limited to, white light, so as to illuminate the garment processing cavity with the white light emitted by the lighting device, that is, to use the lighting device as a lighting device.

[0177] In related technologies, the lighting device is placed on the front support of the garment processing equipment. When the lighting device is used as an illumination device, it can easily cause insufficient light in the garment processing cavity, which causes inconvenience to users when placing clothes into the garment processing cavity. Compared with related technologies, the embodiments of this disclosure can place the lighting device inside the garment processing cavity, for example, on the lifting rib inside the garment processing cavity. When the lighting device is used as an illumination device, it is beneficial to ensure sufficient light in the garment processing cavity.

[0178] Therefore, in this embodiment, when the garment processing equipment is determined to be in standby mode, the light of the lighting device is controlled to display a first display parameter with higher light intensity, thereby enabling the lighting device to serve as a lighting device for the garment processing chamber and improving the user experience.

[0179] In some embodiments, controlling the display parameters of the lighting device based on the operating status of the garment processing equipment includes:

[0180] Since the garment processing equipment is in the drying operation stage, the lighting device is controlled to display the second display parameter according to the drying status parameters of the load.

[0181] Specifically, when a user selects a drying program to dry clothes, the clothing processing equipment can enter the drying operation phase. During the drying operation phase, the drying status parameters of the load in the clothing processing chamber can be acquired, and based on the drying status parameters of the load, the lighting device is controlled to display the second display parameters.

[0182] Different drying status parameters of the load correspond to different degrees of drying. Therefore, the drying process can be divided into multiple drying stages with varying degrees of drying based on these parameters. For each drying stage, a different secondary display parameter can be displayed by controlling the lighting device. By setting a one-to-one correspondence between the drying stage and the secondary display parameter, the lighting device can be controlled to display the corresponding secondary display parameter based on the current drying stage of the clothing. This allows users to intuitively understand the drying progress of the clothing by accessing the secondary display parameters of the lighting device.

[0183] Therefore, when it is determined that the clothing processing equipment is in the drying operation stage, the light device can be used as a characterizing device to display the drying progress of the load. By obtaining the second display parameter displayed by the light device, the drying progress of the clothing can be obtained intuitively.

[0184] In some embodiments, based on the clothing handling equipment being in the drying operation phase, the lighting device is controlled to display a second display parameter according to the drying status parameters of the load, including:

[0185] Based on the fact that the garment processing equipment is in the drying operation stage, the second display parameter of the lighting device is controlled according to the load humidity information.

[0186] The second display parameter may include at least one of color gamut, color temperature, light intensity, and display frequency. Specifically, when the clothing processing equipment is in the drying operation phase, the moisture level of the clothes decreases as the drying process continues. Based on this, load humidity information can be obtained, and the corresponding second display parameter of the lighting device can be controlled according to the obtained load humidity information, so that the user can intuitively obtain the current drying progress of the clothes in the clothing processing equipment by obtaining the corresponding second display parameter.

[0187] In some embodiments, controlling the second display parameter of the lighting device based on the load humidity information includes:

[0188] Determine the humidity range to which the load humidity belongs, and control the lighting device to operate according to the second display parameter corresponding to the humidity range to which the load humidity belongs.

[0189] Specifically, humidity ranges can be defined according to their levels, and each humidity range corresponds one-to-one with a second display parameter. Once the load humidity is obtained, the corresponding humidity range can be determined. After determining the humidity range, the corresponding second display parameter is controlled to operate, allowing the user to intuitively determine the current drying progress of the clothes.

[0190] For example, during the clothes drying process, the drying operation stage can be divided into multiple humidity ranges based on the load humidity, such as a first humidity range, a second humidity range, a third humidity range, a fourth humidity range, and a fifth humidity range. The humidity values ​​corresponding to the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth humidity ranges decrease sequentially.

[0191] Specifically, when the humidity load in the garment processing equipment is within a first humidity range, the lighting device can be controlled to operate according to the corresponding second display parameters, for example, controlling the lighting device to display a first color; when the humidity load in the garment processing equipment is within a second humidity range, the lighting device can be controlled to operate according to the corresponding second display parameters, for example, controlling the lighting device to display a second color; when the humidity load in the garment processing equipment is within a third humidity range, the lighting device can be controlled to operate according to the corresponding second display parameters, for example, controlling the lighting device to display a third color; when the humidity load in the garment processing equipment is within a fourth humidity range, the lighting device can be controlled to operate according to the corresponding second display parameters, for example, controlling the lighting device to display a fourth color; and when the humidity load in the garment processing equipment is within a fifth humidity range, the lighting device can be controlled to operate according to the corresponding second display parameters, for example, controlling the lighting device to display a fifth color. The first, second, third, fourth, and fifth colors are all different.

[0192] To save power consumption of the lighting device, when the garment processing equipment is in the drying stage, the lighting device can be controlled to operate in a breathing light mode. For example, the lighting device can be controlled to operate according to a preset breathing brightness frequency to achieve a gradual change in the light from bright to dim. For example, in conjunction with the above, the first, second, third, fourth, and fifth colors displayed by the lighting device can all operate according to the preset breathing brightness frequency.

[0193] For example, when the drying process has just begun and the load, such as the humidity of the clothes, is high, the lights in the lighting device can be controlled to display a cool color, such as blue, which can be used to remind the user that the clothes are damp.

[0194] Therefore, based on the second display parameter corresponding to the lighting device, the specific drying stage of the clothing processing equipment can be determined, and the drying progress of the clothing can be judged. In other words, the drying progress of the clothing during the drying operation stage can be intuitively obtained through the second display parameter of the lighting device.

[0195] The garment processing equipment includes a drying parameter detection device, which is disposed on the inner wall of the garment processing chamber. The drying parameter detection device may be, for example, a conductivity detection device. Exemplarily, FIG11 is a schematic diagram of the physical structure of a garment processing equipment provided in an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in FIG11, the garment processing equipment includes a garment processing tank 1, a lifting rib 202, and a conductivity detection device (not shown in FIG11). The garment processing tank 1 has a garment processing chamber 201, and the lifting rib 202 is disposed within the garment processing chamber 201; at least a portion of the conductivity detection device is disposed on the outer surface of the lifting rib 202. The lifting rib 202 includes an extension 22 connected to the rear end of the main body 23.

[0196] Specifically, the conductivity detection device can detect the conductivity of the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 201. The clothing processing equipment can determine the humidity value of the clothing based on the conductivity detected by the conductivity detection device. The principle of the conductivity detection device is as follows: the load within the clothing processing chamber 201 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, meaning that the moisture level of the load is related to the conductivity. The humidity value of the clothing 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 conductivity detection device can contact the load, such as clothing, within the clothing processing chamber 201, thereby sensing the humidity value of the clothing at close range and determining the humidity value of the load based on the detection data from the conductivity detection device.

[0197] In some embodiments, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes:

[0198] Since the garment processing equipment is in the replenishment drying stage, the lighting control device displays the light using a third display parameter.

[0199] The third display parameter is different from the second display parameter.

[0200] Specifically, since the third display parameter differs from the second display parameter, it helps the user distinguish whether the garment processing equipment is in the drying operation stage or the re-drying stage. For example, when the garment processing equipment is in the re-drying stage, the lighting device can be controlled to emit a warm-toned (red) light to remind the user that the clothes are about to dry.

[0201] In some implementations, different light display color temperature parameters correspond to different hues, thus allowing the light display device to be controlled to display different hues by adjusting the light display color temperature parameters. For example, a cool hue (blue light) is displayed when the clothes are damp, and a warm hue (red light) is displayed when the clothes are about to dry.

[0202] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the clothing processing equipment is in the drying operation stage, the humidity information of the load, such as the clothing, is obtained. Based on the humidity information of the clothing, the color temperature parameter of the light display device is adjusted to control the corresponding hue of the light display device.

[0203] The color temperature parameter of the lighting display can have a corresponding relationship with the humidity range. Specifically, the humidity range is positively correlated with the corresponding color temperature parameter of the lighting display. Optionally, the higher the humidity value of the humidity range, the higher the corresponding color temperature parameter of the lighting display; the lower the humidity value of the humidity range, the lower the corresponding color temperature parameter of the lighting display.

[0204] Since there is a correspondence between the color temperature parameter of the light display and the color tone of the display, and a correspondence between the humidity range and the drying stage, controlling the light device to work according to the color temperature parameter of the light display corresponding to the humidity range of the load humidity is equivalent to controlling the light device to display different light tones for different drying stages.

[0205] Specifically, this embodiment obtains the load humidity and then determines the humidity range to which the load humidity belongs. The humidity range corresponds to the color temperature parameter of the lighting display. Therefore, by obtaining the load humidity, the color temperature parameter of the lighting display can be determined, and by adjusting the color temperature parameter, the lighting device can control the displayed light hue.

[0206] For example, at the beginning of the drying process, when the load, such as the humidity of the clothes, is high, the color temperature parameter of the light display is increased, thereby controlling the light in the lighting device to display a cool color tone, such as blue. The cool color tone can be used to remind the user that the clothes are damp. When the clothes are about to dry, when the load, such as the humidity of the clothes, is low, the color temperature parameter of the light display is decreased, thereby controlling the light in the lighting device to display a warm color tone, such as red. The warm color tone can be used to remind the user that the clothes are about to dry.

[0207] Therefore, the lighting device operates according to the color temperature parameters of the light display corresponding to the humidity range of the load humidity. By adjusting the color temperature parameters of the light display device, when the clothes are relatively damp, the light in the lighting device can be controlled to be closer to a cool tone, and when the clothes are about to dry, the light in the lighting device can be controlled to be closer to a warm tone, thereby improving the user's intuitive experience during the clothes drying process.

[0208] In some embodiments, controlling the display parameters of the lighting device based on the operating status of the garment processing equipment includes:

[0209] Once the garment processing equipment is determined to be in the end-of-operation phase, the lighting control device displays the information using the fourth display parameter to indicate the end of the drying process.

[0210] Specifically, when the drying load of the garment processing equipment, such as the clothes, is finished, the user needs to remove the clothes. At this time, it can be determined that the garment processing equipment is in the end stage of operation. The fourth display parameter of the control lighting device is used to indicate the end of drying information to remind the user to remove the clothes in time.

[0211] The fourth display parameter differs from the display parameters of the lighting device when the garment processing equipment is in standby or drying operation. This allows users to easily distinguish whether the garment processing equipment is currently in the end-of-operation, standby, or drying operation phase by obtaining the corresponding display parameters of the lighting device.

[0212] In some embodiments, the control method for the garment processing equipment further includes:

[0213] Once the lighting device has rotated to the target position, control the lighting device to start.

[0214] Among them, the distance between the target position and the lowest position of the clothing processing chamber is greater than the preset distance.

[0215] Specifically, the lighting device can be installed on the lifting ribs of the garment processing chamber, and the lighting device rotates as the garment processing chamber rotates. When the lighting device rotates to the lowest position of the garment processing chamber, the garments inside the chamber cover the lighting device. If the lighting device is controlled to display according to the display parameters at this time, i.e., the lighting device is activated, the display effect of the lighting device will be affected.

[0216] Based on this, this embodiment obtains the rotational position of the lighting device and controls its activation once the device has rotated to the target position. The distance between the target position and the lowest point of the clothing processing chamber is greater than a preset distance, ensuring that when the lighting device rotates to the target position, the clothing inside the processing chamber falls to the lowest point. This mitigates the issue of clothing covering the lighting device when it is activated, thus improving the display effect of the lighting device.

[0217] Based on the above embodiments, Figure 12 exemplarily illustrates a specific flowchart of a control method for a garment processing device provided by an embodiment of this disclosure. As shown in Figure 12, the method includes the following steps:

Industrial applicability

[0238] The garment processing device disclosed herein includes at least a garment processing chamber, a lifting rib, and an acceleration sensor. The lifting rib is fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber, and the acceleration sensor is fixed to the inner wall of the garment processing chamber, which rotates around a rotation axis. The control method includes: acquiring the acceleration detected by the acceleration sensor; and determining the position of the lifting rib based on the acceleration. Based on the above scheme, this application can accurately determine the position of the lifting rib using a low-cost acceleration sensor fixed to the lifting rib, providing a basis for related actions based on the position of the lifting rib, which is beneficial to improving the user experience of the garment processing device. The acceleration data can be acquired through the control board (lower-level machine) set on the garment processing chamber, thereby determining the state of the garment processing device based on the acceleration data. That is, the state of the garment processing device can be determined through the lower-level machine in the garment processing device, thus avoiding the problem in related technologies where the upper-level machine does not send the state of the garment processing device to the lower-level machine, which affects the function of the lower-level machine. In addition, the embodiments of this disclosure do not require the upper-level machine of the garment processing device to send the state of the garment processing device to the lower-level machine, which helps to reduce the complexity of interaction between the upper-level machine and the lower-level machine in the garment processing device.

Specifically, when the garment processing equipment is in the drying stage, the drying stage of the load can be determined based on the drying status parameters. The display parameters of the lighting device are then controlled accordingly, making the lighting device a representation of the drying progress. This allows users to intuitively understand the drying progress of the garments by accessing the display parameters of the lighting device, thus improving the user experience.
