meanwhile, a water level sensor 3150 is arranged at the accessory of the water pump to detect the water level in the water storage tank 360, and the water pump works only when the water level in the water storage tank 360 reaches a preset water level.
Fig. 4 is a schematic flow chart of a cleaning method for a clothes dryer provided in an embodiment of the present application, which is applied to the clothes dryer described above, and includes at least the following steps.
Step 410: in response to the self-cleaning command, cleaning water is injected into the reservoir.
In order to solve the problem of injecting the cleaning water into the water storage tank, in a specific implementation, a water tray box can be arranged in the clothes dryer, the cleaning water is manually injected into the water tray box by a user, and the cleaning water flows into the water storage tank through a pipeline between the water tray box and the water storage tank; or an external water inlet of the water storage tank is connected with a tap water pipe, and the switch of the tap water pipe is automatically controlled by the clothes dryer so as to inject the cleaning water into the water storage tank.
The dryer may automatically generate cleaning instructions periodically or user triggered to generate cleaning instructions, which the user may trigger through an interactive panel of the dryer. In the scene of manually injecting cleaning water through the water tray box, after a user triggers a cleaning instruction, the clothes dryer can automatically pop out the water tray box and prompt the user to pour the cleaning water into the water tray box, and the water tray box can display the water amount required by one-time or multiple-time cleaning in a scale form, so that the user can conveniently master the water amount of the cleaning water. In a scenario where the dryer automatically controls the injection of the cleaning water, the dryer automatically periodically controls the switching of the tap water pipe to periodically inject the cleaning water.
Step 420: the first port and the second port of the control three-way valve are communicated, and the water pump is controlled to extract the cleaning water in the water storage tank out of the water storage tank and then flow into the water storage tank through the first water pipe and the second water pipe, so that the cleaning water circularly flows to drive the cleaning water to be mixed with the flock deposited in the water storage tank.
In specific implementation, the valve core can be reversed by controlling the actuating mechanism of the three-way valve, so that the flow direction of the cleaning water is changed.
Step 430: and the first port and the third port of the control three-way valve are communicated, and the water pump is controlled to discharge the cleaning water mixed with the flock out of the clothes dryer through the first water pipe and the third water pipe.
The embodiment of the application adds three-way valve and water pipe in the aspect of dryer hardware under the little circumstances of software and hardware cost that the dryer was reformed transform, in the aspect of dryer software control, the different port intercommunication opportunity of control three-way valve for the cistern internal water forms earlier circulation rivers in order to with dander and clean water intensive mixing, the clean water discharge dryer after will mixing with the dander again, the simple high efficiency ground is with the dander discharge dryer in the cistern, reduce dry clothing machine bacterium and breed, improve the cleanliness of dryer.
In some embodiments of the present application, based on the foregoing, before injecting the cleaning water into the water storage tank in response to the self-cleaning instruction, the clothes dryer cleaning method further includes:
and responding to the self-cleaning instruction, controlling the first port and the third port of the three-way valve to be communicated, and controlling the water pump to discharge the condensed water in the water storage tank out of the clothes dryer through the first water pipe and the third water pipe.
