  • First, reference is made to FIG. 1, which is a flowchart showing main steps of the method for controlling a smart clothing treatment system. As shown in FIG. 1, the smart clothing treatment system of the present disclosure includes a washing machine, a clothing dryer and a cloud server, in which the washing machine and the clothing dryer can be communicatively connected with the cloud server respectively to realize data transmission. The method for controlling the smart clothing treatment system includes:
    • Step S1: uploading washing parameter information of the washing machine to the cloud server by the washing machine;
    • Step S2: screening out care parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server;
    • Step S3: issuing the screened-out care parameter information to the clothing dryer by the cloud server; and
    • Step S4: running the clothing dryer based on the issued care parameter information.
  • In step S1, the "washing parameter information" of the washing machine is all the information relevant to the current washing program of the washing machine, including execution subject information of the current washing program, parameters involved in the current washing program, progress stage of the current washing program, etc. Specifically, the execution subject is representative information that can distinguish the current washing machine from other clothing washing apparatuses or household appliances, such as model information, set name and installation location of the washing machine, etc. The progress stage of the current washing program is any information that can reflect a progress status of the current washing program, such as the name of current stage (such as wait-to-wash, washing-in-progress, wait-to-rinse, rinsing-in-progress, spin-drying, program completed, etc.), remaining running time, overall running time and already-run time, etc. As an example, the parameters involved in the current washing program may include at least one or more of main operating parameters such as washing mode, washing intensity, clothing weight, heating temperature, the number of rinsing times, and spinning speed. Of course, the types of information contained in the washing parameter information are not limited to the above three types. When the specific type, application scene and the like of the clothing washing apparatus change, those skilled in the art can increase or decrease the types of information contained in the washing parameter information according to the actual running requirements.
  • In step S2, the "care parameter information" is a combination of main care parameters of the clothing drying program of the clothing dryer, including any one or more of drying parameters such as drying intensity, drying temperature, drying mode, drying time, etc. It should be noted that although the above care parameter information is described in connection with the combination of main care parameters, in fact, when the type of the clothing care apparatus changes, the number of parameters contained in the care parameter information can be changed according to the specific type of the clothing care apparatus. For example, if only one main operating parameter is involved in the clothing care program of the clothing care apparatus, the care parameter information may also include only one care parameter.
  • In the above step, the combination of parameters of any washing program out of multiple washing programs of the washing machine can be associated with the combination of parameters of the corresponding drying program, in which the drying program and the washing program associated with each other correspond to matching basic clothing. For example, when the washing parameter information contains silk material washing mode information, the parameters in the associated drying program are the parameters corresponding to low-intensity drying requirements. On this basis, the user can also add other drying parameters according to the actual running requirements of the current associated scene (such as the associated scene related to silk clothing), such as sterilization mode, disinfection duration, aromatherapy duration, etc., so as to complete the setting of one associated scene between the washing parameter information of the washing machine and the care parameter information of the clothing dryer. In the presence of at least one of the above associated scenes, as long as the washing parameter information uploaded by the washing machine is the corresponding washing parameter information in the saved associated scene, the cloud server can automatically trigger the associated scenario, and issue the care parameter information associated with the current washing program of the washing machine to the clothing dryer, so that the clothing dryer can run directly based on the care parameter information issued by the cloud server and dry the clothing. When multiple associated scenes are provided between the same group of washing machine and clothing dryer, the change of the current washing program of the washing machine can automatically trigger the change of the drying program of the clothing dryer, which greatly improves the convenience for the user in use, and reduces the program generating and processing time of the clothing dryer, so that the data processing speed of the clothing dryer before drying the clothing is faster and the clothing dryer is more responsive.
  • Further, step S2 specifically includes:
    • screening out preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server; and
    • taking care parameter information associated with the screened-out preset washing parameter information as the screened-out care parameter information by the cloud server.
  • In the above step, at least one coordinate mapping of preset washing parameter information and care parameter information is saved in a database of the cloud server. When the cloud server receives the washing parameter information corresponding to the current washing program uploaded by the washing machine, the cloud server can search and screen in all the coordinate mappings according to the received washing parameter information, so as to screen out preset parameter information that is the same as or corresponding to the washing parameter information. For example, when the washing parameter information includes a combination of parameters such as the washing duration being 15 minutes and the number of rinsing times being 3, if the preset parameter information is the same as the washing parameter information, then the preset parameter information is also a combination of parameters such as the washing duration being 15 minutes and the number of rinsing times being 3. If the preset parameter information corresponds to the washing parameter information, then the preset parameter information may be the corresponding conditions of various parameters such as the washing duration being 10-20 minutes and the number of rinsing times being more than 2. In this case, since each preset parameter information is associated with one care parameter information, when the preset parameter information matching the washing parameter information is screened out, the care parameter information associated with the preset parameter information is the care parameter information that the cloud server wants to screen out.
  • Further, the above step of "screening out preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server" specifically includes:
    • acquiring washing completion information of the washing machine by the cloud server; and
    • if the washing completion information is acquired, then screening out preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server.
  • In the above step, the "washing completion information" is information indicating that the washing machine has completed all the washing processes, and the running of the washing program is completed. After the washing machine uploads the washing parameter information to the cloud server, the cloud server will acquire the washing completion information of the washing machine, so as to determine the timing of screening out the care parameter information as being after completion of clothing washing and before the care operation needs to be started.
  • In a possible embodiment, the way that the cloud server acquires the washing completion information of the washing machine is to issue inquiry information to the washing machine, and the washing machine can return the washing completion information to the cloud server under the condition that the inquiry information is received and the washing is completed.
  • In another possible embodiment, the way that the cloud server acquires the washing completion information of the washing machine is to search for the washing completion information in the washing parameter information uploaded by the washing machine. Specifically, the washing parameter information uploaded by the washing machine directly contains the washing completion information, and the cloud server can acquire the washing completion information by searching in the washing parameter information. For example, the washing machine uploads the washing parameter information in real time, and the uploaded washing parameter information contains the remaining running duration. When the cloud server obtains the washing completion information indicating a remaining running duration of 0 by searching, the screening operation on the care parameter information will begin.
  • More specifically, the above step of "screening out preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server" further includes:
    • in a case where the washing completion information is received, acquiring standby state information of the clothing dryer by the cloud server; and
    • screening out preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server only if the standby state information is acquired within a preset time.
  • In the above step, the "standby state information" is information indicating that the clothing dryer is in a standby, operable state. When the cloud server acquires the standby state information, it indicates that the clothing dryer is an executable object of the issued drying program. If it is determined that the executable object exists and the drying program needs to be issued, the cloud server starts to screen out the care parameter information, so as to determine the specific drying parameters of the clothing dryer that needs to perform the drying work. In addition, the above preset time can be flexibly set according to actual running requirements, and the preset time can be zero or any duration longer than zero. When the preset time is not zero, the cloud server can start screening out the care parameter information as long as the standby state information is acquired before the preset time expires.
  • In addition, the control method of the present disclosure further includes:
    not screening out the preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server, if the standby state information cannot be acquired within the preset time.
  • In the above step, if the cloud server cannot acquire the standby state information, it means that the clothing dryer is in a non-standby state (such as a power-off state, a running state, etc.); even if the drying program is issued, there is no executable object, so the cloud server does not need to screen out the care parameter information at this time.
  • In addition, the smart clothing treatment system of the present disclosure also includes a mobile terminal, and before step S1, the control method of the present disclosure further includes:
    • sending the coordinate mapping of the preset washing parameter information and the care parameter information to the cloud server by the mobile terminal; and
    • storing the coordinate mapping of the preset washing parameter information and the care parameter information in the cloud server.
  • In the above step, the user can edit the coordinate mapping of the preset washing parameter information and the care parameter information through the mobile terminal, so as to add, delete or change the coordinate mapping stored in the cloud server according to the actual coordinate requirements of different users.
  • Moreover, in addition to setting the coordinate mapping stored in the cloud server through the mobile terminal, it is also possible to establish a personal account in the cloud server through the mobile terminal, so that the user can establish, change or delete the coordination of the clothing washing apparatus and the clothing care apparatus under his/her personal account, which makes it convenient to quickly set and look up the coordinate mapping information of the household appliances under the personal account.
  • It can be understood by those skilled in the art that in any of the above control methods, the number of the clothing washing apparatuses and the number of the clothing care apparatuses are each not limited to one, and a plurality of clothing washing apparatuses or clothing care apparatuses may be of the same type, or may be of different types, as long as the various execution subjects can be distinguished from each other when establishing the coordinate mapping relationship.
  • In addition to the conventional one-to-one association between the washing machine and the clothing dryer, in a possible embodiment, the number of the washing machines is plural, and the number of the clothing dryers is one. In this case, a mapping relationship can be established between each of the washing programs of the plurality of washing machines and the drying program of the clothing dryer. When any of the washing machines is washing the clothing, recommendation of the corresponding care parameter information can be triggered through the uploaded washing parameter information.
  • In another possible embodiment, the number of the washing machines is one, and the number of the clothing dryers is plural. In this case, a mapping relationship can be established between each washing program of the washing machine and the drying programs of the plurality of clothing dryers. When any washing machine is washing the clothing and recommendation of the corresponding care parameter information is triggered, the care parameter information can be recommended to any one or more clothing dryers in the standby state, so that the user can distribute the washed clothing to a plurality of clothing dryers for drying at the same time.
  • In yet another possible embodiment, the number of the washing machines is plural, and the number of the clothing dryers is plural. In this case, for the same washing machine, a mapping relationship can be established between each washing program thereof and the drying programs of the plurality of clothing dryers. When any one or more washing machines is washing the clothing and recommendation of the corresponding care parameter information is triggered, the corresponding care parameter information can be recommended to any one or more clothing dryers in the standby state based on the washing parameter information of different washing machines, so that the user can not only distribute the clothing to a plurality of washing machines for washing, but also can distribute the washed clothing to a plurality of clothing dryers for drying at the same time, which realizes batch treatment of the clothing at the same time and improves the overall treatment efficiency of all the clothing.
  • The preferred embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below in connection with a situation in which the number of the washing machines and the number of the clothing dryers each is one.
  • Reference is again made to FIG. 2, which is a flowchart showing detailed steps of the preferred embodiment of the method for controlling a smart clothing treatment system. As shown in FIG. 2, the detailed steps of the preferred embodiment of the control method include:
    • Step S100: uploading the washing parameter information to the cloud server by the washing machine;
    • Step S101: acquiring the washing completion information of the washing machine by the cloud server;
    • Step S102: judging whether the cloud server has acquired the washing completion information;
    • if the cloud server has acquired the washing completion information, then executing step S103; otherwise, returning to step S102;
    • Step S103: acquiring the standby state information of the clothing dryer by the cloud server;
    • Step S104: judging whether the cloud server has acquired the standby state information within the preset time;
    • if the cloud server has not acquired the standby state information within the preset time, then executing step S105; and if the cloud server has acquired the standby state information within the preset time, then executing step S106;
    • Step S105: not screening out the preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server, and ending the program;
    • Step S106: screening out the preset washing parameter information that matches the washing parameter information by the cloud server;
    • Step S107: taking the care parameter information associated with the screened-out preset washing parameter information as the screened-out care parameter information by the cloud server;
    • Step S108: issuing the screened-out care parameter information to the clothing dryer by the cloud server; and
    • Step S109: running the clothing dryer based on the care parameter information.
  • In summary, the method for controlling a smart clothing treatment system of the present disclosure can automatically recommend the care parameter information of the clothing dryer according to the washing parameter information of the washing machine, so that the clothing dryer can run directly based on the recommended care parameter information. The control method of the present disclosure can be applied to a combination of coordinate household appliances with different types of operating parameters, such as the washing machine and the clothing dryer, so that multiple household appliances with large differences in the operating parameters can run coordinatively based on the specific matching scene, thus improving the coordinate flexibility and intelligence degree of the entire coordinate system.
