Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of steam supplying method that is used to supply steam to the fabric locker room and a kind of treatment facility is provided; In said treatment facility, improve the precision of steam treatment on the one hand, and reduced the danger that the fabric in the steam treatment is damaged or produces negative interaction on the other hand.
Can find out; When be incorporated into steam treatment facility as the locker room of drying machine in the time; The possibility condensation of at least a portion steam also forms drop; Wherein formed drop produces the low temperature drop in the cold-zone of the landline that leads to fabric, and perhaps the condensate liquid in high temperature steam supply district possibly produce the high temperature drop.Under two kinds of situation, pending fabric possibly produce adverse influence to fabric or to fabric treating efficient with contacting of steam drop.Owing to compare with the zone that textiles only contacts with vapours, in the inhomogeneities of the position of droplet impact fabric or textiles temperature and/or wetness, so it is significantly different to produce the steam treatment effect.For example, drip hot-spot, the bleach effect of contact, be added to the different efficient of the additive in the equipment for steam treatment and like that owing to possibly produce the inhomogeneous wetting different elasticity of fabric, fabric and hydrothermal solution, and possibly form fold.For fear of forming drop, the inventor proposes two kinds of solutions, and said two kinds of solutions are compatible fully each other, and preferably can mutually combine.According to first method and at the beginning steam supply before the locker room, the best start condition is provided, when beginning steam supply, significantly reduce the possibility that forms drop with box lunch.According to another kind of method or solution, directly or indirectly monitor the treatment conditions in the locker room, and make the property adjustment of steam supply parameter adaptation in case generation is dripped in solution stopping according to the interior condition of monitoring.
According to one aspect of the present invention, a kind of steam supplying method is provided, wherein steam is fed in the fabric locker room of treatment facility.Treatment facility is for example to provide functional drying machine of renovation (refreshment) or washing machine or any other to have the treatment facility of locker room, air, and preferably dry air passes above-mentioned locker room and ventilates.Steam supplying method can be for example as the wrinkle resistant cycle during renovation cycle, the drying process, the perhaps subprogram enforcement in the wrinkle resistant stage after the clothing of dry-storage in the locker room.Preferably, steam directly is fed in the locker room.This means that steam jet is to carry out in the position that the internal volume from the spray site to the locker room has a direct and contactless route.Available but be not preferably, steam can for example be fed in the locker room through steam is injected in the air guide path that is connected to the locker room indirectly.
In order to prepare to begin steam supply in the locker room, blow air or dry air pass the locker room until reaching predetermined temperature and/or humidity.If for example be that the drying thing installs in the locker room; Then do not need air (especially dry air) drying clothes, and replace clothing temperature, pass the locker room through or pass locker room circulation air, and the element that contacts with the air of circulation or injection heat to predetermined temperature.Because condensation mainly be by steam with pass locker room's flow air and contact or mix and cause that air themperature is the most relevant parameter in this case certainly.Preferably, the predetermined a little higher than common environment temperature of temperature, for example about 35,40 or 50 ℃.If the clothing or the fabric that install to the locker room are for example wetting or moisturize after above-mentioned washing process, then to store the humidity of room air and/or the humidity of clothing and be set to predetermined humidity level, for example residual or relative humidity is 3%, 5% or 10%.Preferably, the two passes through predrying process setting predetermined temperature and the humidity of being scheduled to, because the vapor condensation behavior is depended on air themperature and depended on (having existed) air humidity.
The air that passes locker room's ventilation can heat or cool off or neither heat and also do not cool off (making the air draught with environment temperature or internal temperature).Air heat is implemented through starting heater.Cooling through start as the cooling device of condenser (such as used in condenser formula dried-air drier) implement and/or the cold surrounding air that treatment facility is outside be drawn in the treatment facility-part forms the air that ventilates at least.
After the beginning steam supply arrives the stage of locker room, steam supply is continued, wherein set the temperature of steam flow and/or steam according at least one procedure parameter.This means that in this embodiment steam supply is not to continue with predetermined flow and/or temperature, but according to the current operating process parameter regulation flow and/or the temperature that after beginning steam supply process, possibly change.For example, air humidity changes in the locker room after beginning steam supply, and the change speed of air humidity depends on the amount of the clothing that is contained in the locker room or fabric and/or is stored in fabric type wherein simultaneously.If active procedure parameter change for example, then steam flow and/or temperature correspondingly accommodation it is reacted, even so that also keep avoiding during steam supply, forming the effect of drop in the time cycle at longer steam supply.The steam supply cycle for example keeps and to surpass 1 minute, 2 minutes, or in 3-7 minute scope.

In order to control and to optimize that steam supply is in cylinder in the steam supply stage with during preparing the steam supply stage, subelement 56 receives and handles the signal of first and second temperature sensors and humidity sensor 30.Searching among the memory 56a on being connected to subelement 56; Deposit the optimization pattern like this; So that, calculate the best steam flow rate and the temperature that are used for steam is fed to from additive injector 32 cylinder 6 through using corresponding signal from sensor 30,41 and 44.In an illustrated embodiment, " calculating " meaning is meant from searching the memory 56a of store look-up tables and retrieves.Here temperature and steam flow rate are regulated through control signal is offered CPU50 from subelement 56, and above-mentioned control signal is transferred to pump 40 and heating element heater 42.Therefore, steam flow rate depends on heating power that heating element heater 42 is sent and basically by the pump rate of pump 40 pumps water to heating element heater 42.Correspondingly, vapor (steam) temperature is the function of heating power and the rate of flow of fluid that produced by pump 40.
Fig. 3 illustrates the typical time condition of the temperature in the additive injector 32 that is detected by first temperature sensor 41.Steam supply then begins the heating of heating element heater 42 at the t=0 place through the corresponding control signal from CPU50 (subelement 56) if desired.Along with beginning heating, the begin rising of temperature as being detected with first temperature sensor 41.At time t aThe place reach threshold temperature value T1, and driving pump 40 is so that deliver to heating element heater 42 with water pump.Injector begins to produce steam, wherein at time t aTemperature value T2 above steam flow rate that comes out from additive injector 32 afterwards and vapor (steam) temperature (from temperature T 1) increase to and reach.At this moment, equal upper limit T when temperature T 2 MaxThe time, cut off heating element heater 42, so that the temperature in the additive injector 32 descends as detecting with first temperature sensor 41.Temperature drops to lower temperature T3, and said temperature T 3 is positioned at lowest temperature T MinThe time, start heating element heater 42 once more, and temperature rises to T once more MaxThrough this two steps control, as long as need steam supply and need only temperature limit T in addition Max, T MinDo not change (face as follows), then temperature cycle property ground is at lower limit T MinWith upper limit T MaxBetween the swing.Through this control, obtaining average steam flow only has minimum deviation with average vapor (steam) temperature around mean value.
According to exemplary embodiment of the present invention, threshold value T1 and lower limit and upper limit T Min, T MaxItself does not fix, but one, two or all three values all depend on the treatment conditions that process clothes is used.With adapting to these (one, two or three) temperature according to procedure parameter adjustment, the flow rate of liquid that produced by pump 40 of accommodation when being ejected into cylinder 6 with convenient steam jet 38, is avoided in cylinder or nozzle 36 places formation drop like this.This means in this exemplary embodiment; Be stored in the dew point condition and search among the memory 56a; Wherein according to air themperature that is detected (second temperature sensor 44) and humidity (humidity sensor 30), the best pumping flow velocity (pump 40) of adjusting and control additive injector 32 (first temperature sensor 41) and heating power or temperature are (like temperature limit T Min, T Max), so that the best vapor (steam) temperature of the final steam of realizing coming out from nozzle 36 and steam flow rate-avoid forming drop.
In another aspect of this invention, the initial conditions that are used for from additive injector 32 steam supplies to cylinder are selected like this, form so that just reach the inhibition drop from beginning.According to first method; This can carry out; Because before the beginning steam supply; For example through cylinder 6 air are heated to predetermined temperature, and simultaneously through with clothing dry in advance (if moist) to predetermined beginning humidity (this humidity can through the humidity and air humidity detection of clothing), realize the predetermined condition in the cylinder.These predetermined conditions one reach, and just begin steam supply.According to second method (perhaps in addition); Be used to begin the threshold temperature T1 of accommodating fluid according to selecting in the cylinder to heating element heater 42 when precondition (air themperature and/or humidity), and at the controlling value T according to selected upper and lower two points of the initial conditions in the cylinder 6 (temperature and/or humidity) MaxAnd T MinThis means with which kind of method and all significantly reduced the danger that forms drop in the incipient stage of steam supply.
Should be noted that the exemplary operation according to drying machine 2, air passes the mobile of cylinder 6 to be stopped, because fan 12 separates through freewheel 10 and reverse motor rotation.In this case, the steam 38 that is sprayed through nozzle 36 does not blow out from cylinder 6, is arranged in the clothing place that cylinder rotates and reaches maximum steam efficiency but be rotated in through counter-drum.
Certainly, the operating condition of additive injector 32 also is optimized, to avoid in supply line 34 or at nozzle 36 places or in the inner cold inwall place condensation of cylinder 6.Above-mentioned condensation preheats air and thereby preheats clothing and preheat the cylinder material in addition and avoid with heater 21 through above-mentioned.Even during the steam supply stage, keep air circulation, also can select steam parameter (temperature/flow velocity), to avoid at the disadvantageous condensing rate of condenser or heater 21 places.If for example selected discharged air pattern is perhaps passed cylinder 6 and sucked or blow hot and humid surrounding air, the steam generation parameter that then adopts according to treatment conditions also will be considered the deviation of same process.
