Description

Clothes cabinet and control method thereof

Technical Field

The invention relates to the technical field of furniture, in particular to a clothes cabinet and a control method thereof.

Background

Tinea pedis is a foot dermatosis caused by pathogenic fungi, and has infectivity. Tinea pedis is widely prevalent throughout the world, and is more prevalent in tropical and subtropical regions. In China, the incidence of tinea pedis is also quite high. There is no sebaceous gland between foot and toe of human, so there is no fatty acid for inhibiting skin filamentous fungi, and physiological defense function is poor, while skin sweat glands of these parts are abundant, sweating is more, and air circulation is poor, local moisture and warmth are good for growth of filamentous fungi. In addition, the skin stratum corneum of the sole part is thicker, and keratin in the stratum corneum is rich nutrient substances of fungi and is beneficial to the growth of the fungi.

Women are susceptible to athlete's foot during pregnancy due to endocrine changes that cause the skin to have a reduced ability to resist fungal infections. Obese people are susceptible to tinea pedis due to damp interphalangeal toes and sweat impregnation. The foot skin is injured to destroy the defense function of the skin, and is also one of the factors inducing tinea pedis. Diabetic patients are susceptible to athlete's foot because of substance metabolism disorder caused by insulin deficiency, and resistance decline caused by increase in skin sugar content. The abuse of antibiotics, the long-term use of corticosteroids, immunosuppressants, etc. causes the dysbiosis of the skin normal flora and also increases the susceptibility of tinea pedis. The onset of tinea pedis is also associated with lifestyle habits. Some people do not pay attention to the conditions of foot cleaning and sanitation and shoes and socks and provide good breeding places for fungi.

Examples of the fungi causing foot odor include dictyophyte, trichophyton rubrum, and the like. These fungi produce an unpleasant malodor after the breakdown of skin metabolites. In addition, these fungi may cause skin diseases in other parts of the body, such as tinea manuum, tinea capitis, etc. Because the sole center has more sweat glands than other parts. Each square centimeter of the sole center has about 620 sweat glands, and the same area of other parts of the body is only 143-339. When people have more activities, hot weather, mental stress and spicy hot food, a large amount of sweat can be secreted, so that the incidence rate of tinea pedis is relatively higher. The humidity and pH value in the shoe after sweating provide a proper growing environment for fungi, and the cuticle of the skin necrosis provides enough nutrition for the fungi, so that the fungi can propagate and decompose cutin in large quantity and generate unpleasant odor by mixing urea and lactic acid in sweat.

The cause of foot odor is caused by the combined action of the following reasons:

1. humid environment: the sole of a foot is an environment of profuse perspiration. Each square centimeter of the sole has more than 600 sweat glands, which are 2-4 times more than other parts of the body. A total of about twenty-five million sweat glands can secrete nearly 500 ml of sweat a day. Sweat contains water, salt, lactic acid and urea. When the moisture content is high, the method is very favorable for the mass breeding and propagation of microorganisms.

2. Closed space: when the shoes are tightly worn and the ventilation and air permeability are not good, besides the increase of moisture, the PH value of the skin surface changes, the original PH value is increased to about PH7 from 4.4, and carbon dioxide gas is released, so that the environment is most suitable for the growth of certain fungi on the soles of the feet.

3. And (3) propagation of microorganisms: due to the additive action of the

factors

1 and 2, the foot skin microorganisms grow, and the microorganisms can decompose keratin of the skin and urea and lactic acid components in the foot sweat to form various metabolites with smells, such as:

(1) brevibacterium casei (Brevi Bacterium) decomposes Methionine (Methionine) which is a component of keratin to form methyl mercaptan, and the odor of this metabolite is very similar to that of cheese fermentation.

(2) The fatty components of sebum are broken down by staphylococcus aureus and short chain fatty acids are formed.

(3) The urea in the sweat is decomposed into ammonia by bacteria.

These several tastes are mixed and tightly packed in the airtight sock, and an unpleasant smell of feet is formed.

The tinea pedis and foot odor beset the life of people in a large range for a long time, and the repeated attack of the tinea pedis and foot odor is treated repeatedly. The existing treatment is directed at the feet, but no measures are taken for the shoes which provide the environment for the tinea pedis and the foot odor, and the tinea pedis and the foot odor are repeatedly attacked and difficult to be radically treated by the microorganisms and the humid environment in the shoes.

At present, the method for treating shoes mainly comprises sun drying or natural drying. The sun drying depends on natural conditions, the time consumption is long, the microorganism killing is not thorough, the odor removal is not thorough, and certain damage is caused to the shoes when the sunlight is strong. Natural drying depends on natural conditions, and has long time, poor drying effect, poor microbial killing effect and poor odor removing effect. If the environmental humidity is high, the sterilization requirement cannot be met.

Although the prior art shows a treatment method for killing microorganisms by using ultraviolet rays, the method has poor effect. The reasons are mainly that: fungi causing beriberi such as trichophyton rubrum and the like are resistant to ultraviolet rays. In addition, ultraviolet rays cannot be irradiated to the inside of the shoe due to the limitation in the structure of the product.

s100: the controller acquires the state of the door opening and closing sensor and judges whether the current door panel is in a closed state or not;

if the door plate is in an open state, the controller controls the electromagnetic valve to enable the first space to be communicated with the outside atmosphere, and the controller cuts off the power supplies of the vacuum pump and the heating equipment and waits for the first space to be communicated with the outside atmosphere; if a certain preset threshold time (which may be set as required, for example, 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes, etc.) is waited, if the controller has not received the door panel closing signal, an alarm signal (for example, an acoustic and/or optical alarm signal) is sent until the door panel closing signal is received;

s200: if the controller receives a door panel closing signal, the current door panel is judged to be in a closing state, the controller controls the vacuum pump and the heating equipment to be opened, the electromagnetic valve is controlled to enable the air suction port of the vacuum pump to be communicated with the first space, the vacuum pump starts to work at the moment, air pumped out of the first space is cleaned by the air cleaner and then exhausted to the outside atmosphere from the air exhaust port of the vacuum pump, and the air exhaust port of the vacuum pump can be indoors or additionally connected with a pipeline to the outside;

in the embodiment that the clothes cabinet is provided with the fan, the fan and the heating device are arranged to be opened and closed simultaneously, namely when the controller receives a door plate closing signal and controls the heating device to be opened, the fan is controlled to be opened simultaneously;

s300: the controller acquires detection data of the vacuum degree sensor and the temperature sensor so as to continuously monitor the vacuum degree and the temperature of the first space;

s400: if the detection data of the vacuum degree sensor is larger than a first preset vacuum degree threshold value, the controller controls the vacuum pump to be closed, controls the electromagnetic valve to enable an air suction port of the vacuum pump to be not communicated with the first space, and keeps the vacuum state of the first space;

after the controller controls the vacuum pump to be turned off, the vacuum degree of the first space may be reduced along with the time, so that the controller continues to monitor the vacuum degree of the first space, if the vacuum degree of the first space is lower than a second preset vacuum degree threshold value, the controller controls the vacuum pump to be turned on, the electromagnetic valve is controlled to enable the air suction port of the vacuum pump to be communicated with the first space, the vacuum pump starts to work again, when the vacuum degree reaches a first preset vacuum degree threshold value again, the vacuum pump is turned off, numerical values of the first preset vacuum degree threshold value and the second preset vacuum degree threshold value can be set according to needs, and the first preset vacuum degree threshold value is larger than the second preset vacuum degree threshold value;

in addition, when the vacuum pump is started to work, if the controller monitors that the working time of the vacuum pump reaches a preset threshold time (the threshold time can be set according to needs, such as 10 minutes, 15 minutes, 20 minutes and the like), but the vacuum degree in the first space does not reach a first preset vacuum degree threshold, the controller closes the vacuum pump and sends an alarm signal (such as an acoustic and/or optical alarm signal) to indicate that the seal, the electromagnetic valve, the vacuum pump or the pipeline of the first space has faults;

s500: if the detection data of the temperature sensor is larger than a first preset temperature threshold value, the controller controls the heating equipment to be turned off, and in the embodiment with the fan, the controller simultaneously controls the fan to be turned off;

after the controller controls the heating device to be turned off, the temperature of the first space may be reduced as time passes. Therefore, the controller continuously monitors the temperature in the first space, when the temperature in the first space is smaller than a second preset temperature threshold, the controller controls the heating device to be turned on again and can turn on the fan at the same time, and when the temperature in the first space is larger than the first preset temperature threshold, the controller controls the heating device to be turned off and can turn off the fan at the same time. The values of the first preset temperature threshold and the second preset temperature threshold can be set according to needs, and the first preset temperature value is larger than the second preset temperature value.

And then returns to step S100 to continue the operation.

In any case, when the controller detects that the door panel is opened and is in an open state, the controller immediately turns off the vacuum pump and the heating device and stops the operation of the vacuum pump and the heating device. The controller can also continuously acquire the detection data of the vacuum degree sensor and the temperature sensor (which can also comprise a humidity sensor) and display the detection data through the display screen.

In another embodiment, the gas cleaner may not be provided, and the vacuum pump may exhaust the gas in the first space to the outside atmosphere directly after pumping out the gas, which also falls within the protection scope of the present invention.

In a further alternative embodiment, the control unit may be omitted, and instead of a solenoid valve between the first space and the suction opening of the vacuum pump, a manual control valve may be provided, i.e. a manual operation is used to dry the clothes cabinet and kill the microorganisms. In particular, the manually operated method may comprise the steps of: opening the door panel 51, putting the laundry into the first space, and then manually closing the door panel 51; the control valve is manually opened so that the first space is in communication with the suction port of the vacuum pump 61 while the first space is not in communication with the outside atmosphere, at which time the vacuum pump 61 draws gas in the first space into the atmosphere, and at the same time the heating device 31 is manually opened to start heating the first space. In the embodiment with fan 4, fan 4 is turned on manually at the same time. The reading of the vacuum sensor 63 is observed manually, the control valve is closed manually if a preset vacuum threshold is reached, the vacuum pump 61 is closed, the data of the temperature sensor 64 are observed manually, the heating device 31 is closed manually if a preset temperature threshold is reached, and in the embodiment with fan 4, the fan 4 is closed manually at the same time. After the vacuum pump 61 and the heating device 31 are turned off, if the vacuum degree is observed to be too small or the temperature is observed to be too low, the vacuum pump 61 and the heating device 31 may be manually turned on again, and the fan 4 may be manually turned on at the same time to cyclically heat and evacuate the first space. If the clothes are to be taken out, the vacuum pump 61 and the heating device 31 are first turned off, the control valve is manually operated so that the external atmosphere enters the first space, and after the internal and external pressures of the first space are equalized, the door panel 51 is opened, and the clothes can be taken out. In other alternative embodiments, a partially automatic control and a partially manual control, i.e., a semi-automatic control, are also included in the scope of the present invention.

In yet another alternative embodiment, the control valve may be a one-way valve, which only allows air to flow from the first space to the outside atmosphere, and the one-way valve is simpler and less expensive than the other embodiments.

By adopting the control method of the clothes cabinet, the first space is vacuumized and heated through the circulating process of the steps S200-S500, microorganisms are killed in a vacuum environment, and moisture contained in shoes can be quickly evaporated and pumped away by the vacuum pump under the vacuum condition, so that the aim of drying is fulfilled. The peculiar smell emitted by the shoes is pumped out by the vacuum pump, cleaned by the gas cleaner and removed, and then discharged to the outside, thereby realizing the deodorization function of the shoes.

The foregoing is a more detailed description of the invention in connection with specific preferred embodiments and it is not intended that the invention be limited to these specific details. For those skilled in the art to which the invention pertains, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention, and all shall be considered as belonging to the protection scope of the invention.
