The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood in specific cases to those skilled in the art.
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the present invention provides an additive dispensing device and a method for recommending a wash care program thereof. As shown in fig. 1, the method for recommending a washing program includes:
acquiring information of the washing and protecting additive; generating a washing and protecting program correspondingly matched with the washing and protecting additive; the wash course is transferred to the laundry treating apparatus 200.
The additive feeding device 100 comprises a plurality of feeding units 102, wherein the feeding units 102 are provided with mounting grooves, the mounting grooves are used for mounting a liquid storage box for storing washing and protecting additives, a pump for pumping the washing and protecting additives and a water feeding and discharging water channel for feeding the washing and protecting additives. The reservoir box has a storage chamber for storing a rinse aid. The water throwing-discharging road is provided with a water inlet, a feed inlet and a liquid outlet. The pump is preferably a metering pump.
And the feed inlet of the water throwing-off water channel is communicated with the storage chamber through a pump and is used for sucking the washing and protecting additive from the storage chamber into the water throwing-off water channel. The water inlet of the water throwing-releasing road is communicated with a water source at home of a user and is used for flushing and diluting the washing and protecting additive when water enters the water throwing-releasing road. The outlet of the feeding water passage is communicated with the inlet of the washing drum of the laundry treating apparatus 200 for introducing the solution mixed with the laundry additive and water into the washing drum for treating the laundry. The liquid storage boxes can be replaceable disposable containers or containers for multiple liquid supplement, and one washing and protecting additive is stored in each liquid storage box.
If the laundry additive feeding device 100 and the laundry treating device 200 are two independent devices, the liquid outlet of the feeding water channel is preferably communicated with the water inlet of the laundry treating device 200.
Specifically, different washing and caring additives have different components and purposes, and users usually buy corresponding types of washing and caring additives according to the needs of families. Moreover, with the development of chemical technology, there are more and more types of laundry additives suitable for the care of laundry.
Optionally, the types of the wash-care additive include a main wash and a builder, and the main wash includes various types of detergents; builders include functionally classified softeners, bleaches, disinfectants, odorants, and the like.
Both the main and builder classes of wash additives from the acid to alkaline point of view and include acidic wash additives, neutral wash additives and alkaline wash additives.
The resulting wash programs that correspond to the wash additives may include a main wash program and an additional wash program.
The main washing program comprises a mixed washing program, a cotton fabric washing program, a linen fabric washing program, a silk fabric washing program, a wool fabric washing program, a polyester fabric washing program, a down jacket washing program and the like aiming at different fabric materials; and washing and protecting programs aiming at different processes, such as rinsing, dewatering, washing and rinsing, can also be included.
The additional programs include disinfection, sterilization, steam, self-cleaning, etc. to achieve different functions.
Each of the washing and caring programs is related to control parameters of the laundry treating apparatus 200, such as heating temperature, rotation speed, rotation/stop ratio, and operation time.
Different types, components and pH value of the washing and protecting additives are different from washing and protecting programs suitable for nursing clothes.
For example, for cotton fabrics, it is strongly alkali resistant but not acid resistant, while for silk fabrics, it is wash-free with alkaline water, suitable for neutral wash-care additives. If all the washing and protecting additives are found to be alkaline washing and protecting additives after the information of the washing and protecting additives is acquired, the generated washing and protecting programs correspondingly matched with the washing and protecting additives can comprise programs such as 'cotton fabric washing' for cotton fabrics or 'linen fabric washing' for linen fabrics, but 'silk fabric washing' for silk cannot be generated.
In other words, no selectable wash-and-care program is available in the generated wash-and-care program for the user to select to wash and care the silk fabric. If a user wants to care silk fabrics or wool fabrics, the washing and protecting additive suitable for silk fabrics, such as silk and wool detergent, should be replaced, so that the washing and protecting additive is associated with the washing and protecting program, and the care effect of the washing and protecting additive on clothes is greatly improved.
In a further scheme, the washing and protecting program correspondingly matched with the washing and protecting additive is generated and is associated with the information of the washing and protecting additive, and the washing and protecting additive is timely and quantitatively put in when the generated washing and protecting program is operated.
In some embodiments of the invention, obtaining information about the wash additive is a step performed after adding a new wash additive or replacing a new wash additive.
In detail, for the additive dispensing device 100 with an automatic dispensing function of the present invention, a liquid storage box for storing the washing and caring additive is installed, when the washing and caring additive in the liquid storage box is not used up, the information of the washing and caring additive will not be changed, and when the same kind of washing and caring additive is replenished in the liquid storage box, the information of the washing and caring additive will not be changed; however, when the storage box is taken out and put into the mounting groove, since it is not determined whether the type of the detergent additive is replaced, the step of acquiring the information of the detergent additive is performed again.
That is, the information of the detergent additive is obtained after adding or replacing a new detergent additive, and the information of the detergent additive obtained last time is used to call the detergent program without adding or replacing a new detergent additive.
In a further aspect, the generated wash programs matched with the wash additives are stored, and are used for directly transmitting the wash programs to the laundry treating apparatus 200 when the additive dispensing apparatus 100 is connected with the laundry treating apparatus 200; and when new washing and protecting additive information is acquired and a new washing and protecting program is generated, the stored washing and protecting program is updated.
In the above scheme, after the detergent additive is replaced or a new detergent additive is added, the additive feeding device 100 re-acquires the information of the detergent additive, generates a new detergent program, and stores the re-generated detergent program, and the stored detergent program can be called at any time before the updated detergent additive is not used up or replaced, so that the processing process of the additive feeding device 100 is simplified, the response speed of the device is increased, and the user experience is improved.
In other embodiments of the present invention, the step of obtaining information about the wash-care additive may be performed when the additive delivery device 100 is powered on.
In detail, for the step of acquiring the information of the detergent additive performed each time the additive dispensing device 100 is turned on in this embodiment, the information of the detergent additive does not need to be stored, and the information of the detergent additive is acquired each time the device is turned on, and then the detergent program adapted to the information of the detergent additive is called.
In addition, in the embodiment, the step of acquiring the information of the laundry additive is performed every time the additive dispensing device 100 is powered on, which is also of practical significance for some special cases. For example, for a publicly used laundry treatment apparatus 200, laundry additives are needed to be carried by the user, and laundry additives carried by different users are different. Then the laundry treating apparatus 200 or the additive dispensing apparatus 100 may obtain the information of the laundry additives carried by the user when being powered on, generate one or more washing programs matched with the laundry additives carried by the user and transmit the one or more washing programs to the laundry treating apparatus 200, and if at least one washing program is suitable for the clothes to be cared by the user, the next operation may be performed to perform washing. If all the generated wash programs do not match the user's laundry to be cared for this time, the user should replace the wash additives if the user finds that the laundry treating apparatus 200 does not provide an alternative wash program.
The information of the washing and protecting additive can be obtained by adopting the following implementation mode in the scheme:
alternatively, the type of wash-care additive is determined by detecting the wash-care additive composition. In detail, an additive component detecting unit capable of detecting a wash-care additive component, such as a micro spectrometer or a probe, is provided.
In a further alternative embodiment, the type of laundry additive is determined by identifying container label information for the laundry additive. For example, a container label is usually provided on a container of a detergent additive purchased by a user, and the container label is embedded with relevant information of the detergent additive contained therein, such as usage, pH value, dosage and the like. The container label can be a two-dimensional code, a bar code, and the like; the washing care additive can also be an RFID electronic tag and the like, and the related information of the washing care additive in the washing care additive can be obtained by identifying and analyzing the tag information.
In a further alternative embodiment, the laundry treating apparatus 200 receives the information input by the user to acquire the type of the laundry additive. In particular, a user may manually input or select information labeled on a container label of a laundry additive to generate a laundry program matching the laundry additive for selection by the user.
The above alternative embodiments may be implemented in combination or separately.
Furthermore, it is understood that the above-mentioned acquiring of the information of the laundry additive may also be implemented on the laundry treating device 200 itself, and then the information is transmitted to the additive dispensing device 100, and the additive dispensing device 100 generates the laundry program based on the received information of the laundry additive. For the sold clothes treatment apparatus 200, if the acquisition unit 101 capable of acquiring the information of the laundry additive is already provided on the clothes treatment apparatus 200, the user can select the additive dispensing apparatus 100 without the acquisition unit 101 when purchasing the additive dispensing apparatus 100, thereby saving the cost. If the laundry treating apparatus 200 is not provided with the acquiring unit 101, the user needs to select the additive dispensing apparatus 100 provided with the acquiring unit 101 when purchasing the additive dispensing apparatus 100, so that the additive dispensing apparatus 100 can implement the function of recommending the washing program.
When the step of obtaining information about the laundry additive is performed at the additive dispensing device 100, the step of obtaining information about the laundry additive further comprises obtaining a storage location for the laundry additive.
Specifically, the type and storage position of the washing and protecting additive are obtained by detecting the components of the washing and protecting additive at the corresponding position; and/or, acquiring the type and storage position of the washing and protecting additive by identifying the container label information of the washing and protecting additive at the corresponding position; and/or, the additive delivery device 100 receives user input to obtain the type and storage location of the laundry additive.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the step of generating a wash program corresponding to the wash additive comprises: the washing and protecting program which is stored by the additive feeding device 100 and is matched with the information of the washing and protecting additive is called, or the washing and protecting program which is transmitted by the mobile terminal or the cloud and is matched with the information of the washing and protecting additive is received, or the washing and protecting program which is generated by editing the information of the corresponding washing and protecting additive is received. Preferably, the wash-and-care program comprises a main wash program and an additional program.
In detail, the additive dispensing device 100 of the present invention may further pre-store information of a certain amount of wash additives and wash programs matched with the information of the wash additives.
After the information of the laundry care additive is acquired, the laundry care program matched with the acquired information of the laundry care additive is called from the local storage database and sent to the laundry treatment device 200.
It is also possible that the additive delivery device 100 does not have information relating to the wash additive and the wash program stored therein. At this time, after the information of the washing and protecting additive is acquired, the additive feeding device 100 is connected with the mobile terminal or the cloud terminal in a wireless transmission manner, retrieves the information of the washing and protecting additive stored in the mobile terminal or the cloud terminal and the associated information of the washing and protecting program, and generates the washing and protecting program correspondingly matched with the washing and protecting additive.
In the above scheme, the additive feeding device 100 and the mobile terminal or the cloud end can be connected in wireless communication modes such as wifi, bluetooth, infrared and radio frequency.
The processing unit 105 may further include an interface capable of receiving the editing content, and when the information of the laundry care additive is obtained, a new laundry care program may be generated by editing the information of the laundry care additive.
In some embodiments of the present invention, at least one wash-care program is matched to the additive package, and the additive dispensing device 100 has a default wash-care program corresponding to the additive package.
In particular, as previously mentioned, there are numerous types of wash-care programs, and for a wash-care additive, there must be at least one wash-care program that is correspondingly matched to the wash-care additive, and for the additive delivery device 100, the corresponding wash-care additive may have a default wash-care program.
In a further embodiment, the laundry care program corresponding to the laundry care additive is modified/selected on the additive dispensing device 100, and the determined laundry care program is transmitted to the laundry treatment device 200.
By the aid of the scheme, processing time of the additive feeding device 100 in generating the washing and protecting program correspondingly matched with the washing and protecting additive can be shortened, response speed is increased, and use experience of a user is improved.
Specifically, n different washing and protecting additives X1, X2, X3 and … … XN are assumed, and m different washing and protecting programs Y1, Y2, Y3 and … … YM are correspondingly matched for the n different washing and protecting additives. The operation parameters in the wash program Y1 allow the wash additives X1, X2, XN to be dosed, and the wash program Y1 is associated with dosing information of the wash additives X1, X2, XN by default. For example, the amounts and timing of the laundry additives X1, X2, and XN put in when the laundry program Y1 is running and the storage locations of the laundry additives X1, X2, and XN are associated by default, and when the user selects the laundry program Y1 to perform the laundry, the laundry additives X1, X2, and XN are put in the associated relationship by default.
Optionally, when the operating parameters in the wash program Y1 allow the wash additives X1, X2, and XN to be dosed, the dosing information of the wash additives X1, X2, and XN is associated with the wash program Y1, but the user may modify the dosing information of the wash additives X1, X2, and XN. For example, the amount and timing of the dosing can be modified by the user, and the user can also cancel the dosing information for one or two of the wash additives X1, X2, XN.
After the modification is completed, when the user selects the wash program Y1, the execution is performed according to the modified delivery information.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the laundry program includes program parameters of the laundry treating apparatus 200 and laundry additive adding information, and the laundry additive adding information includes a type of the laundry additive, a storage location of the laundry additive, and a laundry additive adding timing.
Preferably, the program parameters of the laundry treating apparatus 200 include control parameters and/or load parameters and/or water intake parameters.
Wherein, the control parameters of the clothes processing device 200 include at least one of rotation speed, rotation/stop ratio, heating temperature, etc., the load parameters include at least one of load amount, load material, etc., and the water inlet parameters include at least one of water inlet amount, water temperature, water inlet hardness, etc.
Preferably, the program parameters are transmitted by the laundry treating device 200 to the additive delivery device 100.
As shown in fig. 2, the additive delivery device 100 of the present invention comprises an acquisition unit 101, a processing unit 105 and a communication unit 104.
The obtaining unit 101 is used for obtaining the type of the detergent additive, and the obtaining unit 101 comprises a detergent additive component detecting unit and/or an electronic identification unit and/or an information input unit.
In detail, the additive composition detector may be a micro spectrometer or a probe, etc.
The electronic identification unit can have a scanning function, or a chip identification function, and the like, and can acquire the information of the washing and caring additive by acquiring the container label information of the washing and caring additive.
The information input unit may have a selection function or an input function, and the wash additive information is manually input or selected by a user after reading the information marked on the container label of the wash additive to be transmitted to the processing unit 105.
The processing unit 105 is connected with the obtaining unit 101, receives the information of the washing and caring additive obtained by the obtaining unit 101, and generates a washing and caring program matched with the washing and caring additive according to the information of the washing and caring additive.
In an alternative embodiment, after receiving the information of the laundry care additive from the obtaining unit 101, the processing unit 105 invokes a laundry care program allowing to put in the laundry care additive from the laundry care programs written in advance by the processing unit 105 itself, and associates the invoked laundry care program with the information of the laundry care additive.
Generally, the pre-written wash programs in the processing unit 105 include a plurality of wash programs capable of matching with the wash additives for the user to select, and the user selects a specific wash program from the plurality of wash programs according to the information of the laundry to be treated, and then sends the specific wash program to the laundry treating apparatus 200 through the communication unit 104. When the laundry treating apparatus 200 operates the determined wash program, the laundry additive feeding information corresponding to the wash program is retrieved.
