Description

一种衣物处理设备及其控制方法、控制系统 技术领域
本发明属于衣物处理设备领域,具体地说,涉及一种衣物处理设备及其控制方法、控制系统,和与衣物处理设备配合的添加剂投放设备及其投放控制方法、推荐洗护程序的方法,以及智能终端及其推荐洗护程序的方法。
背景技术
随着自动化技术的发展,衣物处理设备等家电变得越来越智能。例如,有的洗衣机可以进行洗涤剂的自动投放;有的洗衣机还可以在洗涤衣物之前向用户推荐洗涤程序等等。
目前,洗衣机向用户推荐洗护程序时通常都是依据衣物类型、衣物量等参数,按照预先设定的标准向用户推荐相应的洗护参数,例如,加热温度、洗涤时间、漂洗时间、电机转停比以及洗护添加剂的投放量等。但是,这些推荐的参数中往往忽略了洗护添加剂与洗护程序之间的关联性。
洗护添加剂在衣物洗护过程中起着重要的作用,随着化工技术的发展,洗护添加剂的种类越来越多,衣物洗护对添加剂的投放要求也越来越高。由于洗护添加剂的类型、成分不同,例如普通型、浓缩型、超浓缩型或者中性型、酸性型、碱性型等,因此,不同类型的洗护添加剂允许的洗护程序也不尽相同。如果在洗护程序中仅关注洗护添加剂的投放量而忽略洗护添加剂本身的类型或成分等参数对洗护程序的影响,那么不仅会导致衣物的洗护效果不理想,严重时还会破坏衣物材质,减少衣物使用寿命。
为了让普通的洗衣机也能拥有自动投放洗涤剂的功能,申请号为201922110159.X的中国专利提供了一种外置于洗衣机的通用洗涤剂自动投放装置,包括投放设备主体、电路检测器和投放管路,投放管路的一端与投放设备主体相连,另一端连接在水龙头与洗衣机进水管之间;所述电路检测器内设置有检测洗衣机运行状态信息的功率检测模块,电路检测器的输入端与洗衣机电连接,电路检测器的输出端与投放设备主体电连接;电路检测器上设置有插脚和插孔,可以方便的直接与家用电源座和洗衣机相连;通过电路检测器实现对洗衣机电流、电压和功率的检测,结合流量检测器的进水状态和进水量信息,进而实现普通洗衣机的自动投放功能。
上述方案中的通用洗涤剂自动投放装置仅能基于洗衣机的工作状态实现洗涤剂的自动投放,功能单一,使用灵活性差。
然而,随着化工技术的发展,用于护理衣物的洗护添加剂的类型、成分的种类也在不断增多。例如普通型、浓缩型、超浓缩型或者中性型、酸性型、碱性型等,不同类型的洗护添加剂允许的洗护程序也不尽相同。如果在洗护程序中仅关注洗护添加剂的投放量而忽略洗护添加剂本身的类型或成分等参数对洗护程序的影响,那么不仅会导致衣物的洗护效果不理想,严重时还会破坏衣物材质,减少衣物使用寿命。
例如申请号为201710030780.8的发明专利公开了一种外置洗涤剂投放装置、其控制方法及洗衣机,涉及家用电器技术领域。该外置洗涤剂投放装置包括洗涤剂盒、进水管路、投放管路和外置电路板,进水管路的两端分别与自来水接头和洗衣机进水阀连接,洗涤剂盒通过投放管路与进水管路相连通,投放管路上安装有投放机构,用于向进水管路中投放洗涤剂
上述申请公开的外置洗涤剂投放装置,在洗涤剂盒的状态参数信息不符合预设条件的情况下却仍正常投放,导致因添加剂的类型、品牌、粘稠度、浓度、质量等状态参数信息的不同,造成投放装置投放精度相差太大、投放口堵塞,不仅会影响衣物的洗护效果,而且也会对洗涤负载或添加剂投放设备带来不同程度的损伤的问题,影响用户的使用体验。
有鉴于此,特提出本发明。

如图1至图5所示,本发明提供一种衣物处理设备控制方法及控制系统,其中如图1和图2所示,本发明衣物处理设备控制方法包括以下步骤:
获取洗护添加剂的信息;
调取洗护程序,所述洗护程序允许投放至少一种所述洗护添加剂;
将所述洗护程序和对应的允许投放的洗护添加剂投放信息相关联。
具体的,不同的洗护添加剂其成分以及用途各不相同,用户通常会根据家庭的需求购买相应类型的洗护添加剂;另外,随着化工技术的发展,适用于护理衣物的洗护添加剂的类型会越来越多,采用洗护添加剂护理衣物的要求也越来越高,不同的洗护程序也需要不同类型的洗护添加剂,本发明通过获取与洗护添加剂匹配的洗护程序,能够更好地洗护衣物。
优选的,所述洗护添加剂的类型包括主洗剂和助洗剂,主洗剂包括各类型的洗涤剂;助洗剂从功能上划分包括软化剂、漂白剂、消毒剂、增香剂等。
不论是主洗剂还是助洗剂从酸碱性角度划分包括酸性洗护添加剂、中性洗护添加剂以及碱性洗护添加剂。
洗护程序包括主洗程序和附加程序可供调取。
其中,主洗程序包括混合洗、棉织物洗、麻织物洗、丝绸织物洗、羊毛织物洗、涤纶织物洗以及羽绒服等针对不同织物材质的洗护程序;还可包括漂洗、脱水以及洗漂等针对不同进程的洗护程序。
附加程序包括消毒、杀菌、蒸汽、自清洁等实现不同功能的程序。
各洗护程序均与加热温度、转速、转停比、运行时间等衣物处理设备的控制参数有关。
不同类型、成分、酸碱度的洗护添加剂其适用于护理衣物的洗护程序不尽相同。
例如,对于棉织物而言,其耐碱性强,但是不耐酸,而对于丝绸织物而言,其忌用碱水洗,适用于中性洗护添加剂。如果获取洗护添加剂的信息后发现所有的洗护添加剂均为碱性洗护添加剂,那么对应的针对棉织物的“棉织物洗”为允许进行的洗护程序,而对应的针对丝绸的“丝绸织物洗”为不被允许进行的洗护程序。
允许进行的针对棉织物的“棉织物洗”洗护程序与洗护添加剂的信息相关联,当运行上述的“棉织物洗”洗护程序时即会按照程序预设的程序按时按量投放所述洗护添加剂。
也就是说,此时调取的洗护程序中不会出现对丝绸织物进行洗护的洗护程序,“丝绸织物洗”不会被推荐给用户。如果用户想对丝绸织物进行护理,则应更换适用于丝绸织物的洗护添加剂,例如丝毛洗涤剂,这样使洗护添加剂与洗护程序关联起来,大大提升了衣物处理设备对衣物的护理效果,也能够避免由于用户对洗护添加剂的不了解而导致对衣物造成损伤。
在本发明的一些实施例中,获取洗护添加剂的信息为在增加新的洗护添加剂或更换新的洗护添加剂后执行的步骤。即,在增加新的洗护添加剂或更换新的洗护添加剂后需要重新获取洗护添加剂的信息,而在并未增加新的洗护添加剂或更换新的洗护添加剂的情况下则采用最近一次获取的洗护添加剂的信息调取洗护程序。
详细的,对于具有自动投放功能的投放装置而言,其具有储存洗护添加剂的储存容器,当储存容器内的洗护添加剂未用完时,洗护添加剂的信息一般不会改变,同样在原储存容器中补充同类洗护添加剂时,洗护添加剂的信息也不会改变,但是,若将储存容器取出再放入时,由于不确定是否更换洗护添加剂的类型,因此应该执行获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤。该储存容器为一次性可更换的容器,也可为能够补液的 重复使用的容器。
可以理解的是,对于不具有自动投放功能的投放装置而言,上述实施方式同样可行。例如,可由用户决定何时增加新的洗护添加剂或更新的洗护添加剂。如果用户未更新洗护添加剂的信息,则采用最近一次获取的洗护添加剂的信息调取洗护程序。
具体的方案中,将洗护程序与洗护添加剂的投放信息关联存储,用于在启动洗护程序时,直接调取该洗护程序对应的洗护添加剂投放信息;每次新存储的洗护添加剂与洗护程序关联信息将上次存储的信息更新。
在本发明的另外一些实施例中,所述获取洗护添加剂的信息还可以为在衣物处理设备开机时执行的步骤。
详细的,对于本实施例中每次开机时均执行获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤而言,则不需要对洗护添加剂的信息进行储存,每次开机即获取洗护添加剂的信息,然后再调取与其适配的洗护程序。
另外,在本实施例中,衣物处理设备每次开机时均执行获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤,对于一些特殊情况也具有现实意义。例如,对于公共使用的衣物处理设备而言,洗护添加剂需要用户自带,不同的用户携带的洗护添加剂不同。那么衣物处理设备开机时会获取用户自带的洗护添加剂的信息,并调取一个或多个与用户自带的洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序,如果至少有一个洗护程序适用于用户本次需护理的衣物则可进行下一步的操作,进行洗护。如果调取的所有洗护程序均与用户本次需护理的衣物不匹配,那么用户发现衣物处理设备未提供可供选择的洗护程序时则应更换洗护添加剂。
上述方案中可采用如下实施方式获取洗护添加剂的信息:
可选的实施方式为,通过检测洗护添加剂成分获取洗护添加剂的类型。详细的,设置能够检测洗护添加剂成分的添加剂成分检测单元,例如微型光谱仪或探针等。可以理解的是,添加剂成分检测单元可设置在衣物处理设备本机上,还可以设置在与衣物处理设备本机相对独立的添加剂投放模块上。
还可选的实施方式为,通过识别洗护添加剂的容器标签信息获取洗护添加剂的类型。例如,用户购买的洗护添加剂的容器上通常设有容器标签,容器标签内嵌设有内装洗护添加剂的相关信息,例如,用途、酸碱度、用量等。容器标签可为二维码、条形码等,通过扫描容器标签信息获取内装洗护添加剂的相关信息;也可为RFID电子标签等,通过电子识别器识别获取内装洗护添加剂的相关信息。
还可选的实施方式为,接收用户输入的信息获取洗护添加剂的类型。详细的,用户可阅读洗护添加剂的容器标签上标注的信息后手动输入或选择该信息,以便调取与该洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序供用户选择。
上述可选的实施方式可结合实施,也可单独实施。
在本发明的一些实施例中,所述调取洗护程序的步骤包括:
接收移动终端600或云端发送的与洗护添加剂的信息相匹配允许投放的洗护程序。
详细的,对于现有的衣物处理设备而言,其电脑板中并没有内嵌足够多的、能够基于各种类型洗护添加剂调取与其相适配的洗护程序,但是,现有的衣物处理设备一般具有可跟移动终端600或云端无线通信 的通信模块。因此,当移动终端600或云端基于获取到的洗护添加剂的信息并调取允许投放至少一种所述洗护添加剂的洗护程序后,可将洗护程序通过通信模块传输至现有衣物处理设备的电脑板500,以便电脑板根据该接收的洗护程序执行洗护进程。
在本发明的一些实施例中,每一洗护程序对应关联至少一组洗护添加剂的投放信息,衣物处理设备对应洗护程序具有默认关联的洗护添加剂投放信息。
优选的,用户能够修改/选择该洗护程序允许的其它洗护添加剂的投放信息,或者,衣物处理设备根据负载量、和/或负载材质、和/或脏污度、和/或进水量、和/或水质、和/或水温调取该洗护程序允许的其它洗护添加剂的投放信息。
进一步的方案中,所述洗护添加剂的投放信息包括洗护添加剂的类型、洗护添加剂的储存位置及洗护添加剂的投放时序。
所述洗护程序按照对应关联的洗护添加剂的类型、洗护添加剂的储存位置及洗护添加剂的投放时序控制洗护添加剂适时投放。
详细的,假设有n种不同的洗护添加剂X1、X2、X3、……XN,而针对该n种不同的洗护添加剂则对应匹配有可选择的m种不同的洗护程序Y1、Y2、Y3、……YM。其中,洗护程序Y1中的运行参数允许投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN,那么洗护程序Y1中就关联有洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息。例如,洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN在洗护程序Y1运行时的投放量、投放时序以及洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的储存位置是默认关联,当用户选择洗护程序Y1进行洗护时,则按照默认关联关系投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN。
可选的,当洗护程序Y1中的运行参数允许投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN时,洗护程序Y1中就关联有洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息,但是,用户可对洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息进行修改。例如投放量以及投放时序可由用户修改,用户还可以取消洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN中的其中一种或两种洗护添加剂的投放信息。
衣物处理设备或用户可基于负载量、和/或负载材质、和/或脏污度、和/或进水量、和/或水质、和/或水温进行上述修改。
修改完成后,当用户选定洗护程序Y1时,按照修改后的投放信息执行。
上述方案中,根据洗护程序与获取的洗护添加剂信息的关系,将洗护程序划分为可选择的洗护程序和禁止选择的洗护程序。
其中,可选择的洗护程序为与至少一所述洗护添加剂有关联的程序,禁止选择的洗护程序为与任一所述洗护添加剂均没有关联的程序。
可选择的洗护程序能够供用户选择进行衣物洗护处理,而禁止选择的洗护程序则不可供用户选择进行衣物洗护处理。如果用户选择了禁止选择的洗护程序,衣物处理设备则不会启动并且发出警报信息。在上述方案中,当所有的洗护添加剂均为碱性洗护添加剂,那么对应的针对棉织物的“棉织物洗”即为可选择的洗护程序,而对应的针对丝绸的“丝绸织物洗”即为禁止选择的洗护程序。也就是说,此时“丝绸织物洗”禁止被用户选择。
具体的,如图2所示,本发明的衣物处理设备控制方法包括如下步骤,
S1、接收洗护程序的启动指令;
S2、调取与该洗护程序对应关联的洗护添加剂的投放信息;
S3、执行洗护。
在步骤S1前进行如下步骤:
S01,获取洗护添加剂的信息;
S02,调取洗护程序,所述洗护程序允许投放至少一种所述洗护添加剂;
S03,确定洗护程序。
详细的,当增加新的洗护添加剂或更新洗护添加剂或开机时,获取所有洗护添加剂的信息,调取允许投放至少一种所述洗护添加剂的洗护程序供用户选择,当用户/衣物处理设备选择确定的洗护程序后,衣物处理设备的电脑板500接收洗护程序的启动指令,然后电脑板控制衣物处理设备执行确定的洗护程序,在执行过程中调取与该洗护程序对应关联的洗护添加剂的投放信息。
上述方案中,在衣物处理设备的洗护程序运行前将洗护程序与洗护添加剂的信息相关联,避免出现不适于洗护添加剂的洗护程序运行导致衣物的洗护效果不理想、损伤衣物的问题。
如图3所示,本发明的衣物处理设备控制系统,包括获取单元100和处理单元200。
其中,获取单元100用于获取洗护添加剂的类型。所述获取单元100包括洗护添加剂成分检测单元和/或电子识别单元和/或信息输入单元。
详细的,添加剂成分检测单元可以是微型光谱仪或探针等。可以理解的是,添加剂成分检测单元可设置在衣物处理设备本机上,还可以设置在与衣物处理设备本机相对独立的添加剂投放模块上。
电子识别单元可以带扫描功能,或者带电子识别功能等,能够通过识别获取洗护添加剂的容器标签信息获取所述洗护添加剂的信息。
信息输入单元可以具有选择功能或者输入功能,由用户阅读洗护添加剂的容器标签上标注的信息后手动输入或选择该洗护添加剂信息以传送给处理单元200。
处理单元200与所述获取单元100连接,用于接收所述获取单元100获取到的洗护添加剂的信息,根据所述洗护添加剂的信息调取并关联允许投放该洗护添加剂的洗护程序。
可选的实施方式中,处理单元200接收来自获取单元100的洗护添加剂的信息后,从预设的洗护程序中调取允许投放所述洗护添加剂的洗护程序并将调取的洗护程序与所述洗护添加剂的信息进行关联。
通常,预设的洗护程序中包括多个能够与洗护添加剂相适配的洗护程序供用户选择,用户根据待护理的衣物信息从多个洗护程序中选择一确定的洗护程序,当衣物处理设备运行该确定的洗护程序时,调取与该洗护程序对应关联的洗护添加剂的投放信息。预设的洗护程序可以预设在衣物处理设备中,也可以预设在与衣物处理设备本机相对独立的添加剂投放模块中。
上述方案中,通过设置能够根据所述洗护添加剂的信息调取并关联允许投放该洗护添加剂的洗护程序的处理单元200,保障洗护程序与洗护添加剂的适配性,避免不适于洗护添加剂的洗护程序运行,损伤衣物。
还可选的实施方式中,如图4所示,衣物处理设备控制系统还包括服务器300,服务器300与所述处理单元200连接,所述服务器300内存储有与所述洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序信息供所述处理单元200调取。
上述方案中,处理单元200可通过无线通讯的方式与服务器300连接,从服务器300上调取与所述洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序信息。服务器300内存储有大量与所述洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序信息供所述处理单元200调取。服务器300中存储的洗护程序信息能够实时更新,能够克服由于洗护添加剂的类型或成分等的增加无洗护程序与之相匹配的问题。
进一步的方案中,衣物处理设备控制系统还包括洗护添加剂投放模块400,洗护添加剂投放模块400设有若干用于储存不同类型洗护添加剂的储存腔室。
所述洗护添加剂投放模块400与所述处理单元200连接,所述处理单元200接收所述洗护添加剂的信息时还接收该洗护添加剂在洗护添加剂投放模块400的储存位置。
可选的方案中,所述洗护添加剂投放模块400与衣物处理设备为相互独立的两套设备,或者,所述洗护添加剂投放模块400安装在衣物处理设备内部或外部。
上述方案中,获取单元100和处理单元200均可设置在所述洗护添加剂投放模块400上,或者,获取单元100设置在所述洗护添加剂投放模块400上,处理单元200设置在衣物处理设备上。
对于上述的洗护添加剂投放模块400,还可以包括投放模块主体。投放模块主体上设置有所述储存腔室、投放水路和泵。投放水路具有进水口、进料口、和出液口。
投放水路的进料口通过泵与所述储存腔室连通,用于使洗护添加剂从储存腔室吸取至投放水路内。投放水路的进水口与用户家中的水源连通,用于水进入投放水路中冲洗、稀释洗护添加剂。投放水路的出液口与衣物处理设备的洗涤筒的入水口连接,用于将混合有洗护添加剂和水的溶液导入洗涤筒内护理衣物。所述储存腔室可以为单独的容器,每个储存腔室盛放一种洗护添加剂,可以为一次性容器或多次补液的容器。
若所述洗护添加剂投放模块与衣物处理设备为相互独立的两套设备,投放水路的出液口优选与衣物处理设备的进水口连通。
本发明中,当处理单元200调取到能够与洗护添加剂相适配的可选择的洗护程序后将由用户进行选择或者由衣物处理设备根据负载各类参数和/或进水各类参数等自动选择,选择的洗护程序最终发送至衣物处理设备的电脑板500,由衣物处理设备的电脑板500控制衣物处理设备执行洗护进程。当然,在执行洗护进程的过程中应调取与该洗护程序对应关联的洗护添加剂的投放信息控制洗护添加剂投放模块400进行洗护添加剂的投放。
还可以的,如图5所示,本发明的衣物处理设备控制系统包括移动终端600和控制单元700。
移动终端600用于获取洗护添加剂的信息,并根据所述洗护添加剂的信息匹配可选择的洗护程序。
控制单元700与所述移动终端600通信连接,用于接收所述移动终端600发送的与所述洗护添加剂相匹配可选择的洗护程序信息。
上述方案中,获取洗护添加剂的信息以及根据洗护添加剂的信息匹配可选择的洗护程序的步骤均在移动终端600上完成。本发明利用移动终端600根据所述洗护添加剂的信息调取并关联允许投放该洗护添加剂的洗护程序,还能够在现有的衣物处理设备上运行新增的、与更多不同种类洗护添加剂适配的洗护程序。
详细的,移动终端600上设有用于远程控制衣物处理设备的APP,APP内嵌设有用于获取洗护添加剂的信息的接口以及用于匹配可选择的洗护程序的接口。
当用户点击获取洗护添加剂的信息的接口时,APP会自动跳转至扫描页面,用户将移动终端600的扫描器对准洗护添加剂的容器标签进行扫描,即可获得该洗护添加剂的信息。
还可以的,当用户点击获取洗护添加剂的信息的接口时,APP会自动跳转至可供用户自行输入洗护添加剂的信息的页面,用户按照页面的要求逐项填写或选择,最终获取该洗护添加剂的信息。
再或者,与衣物处理设备本机相对独立的添加剂投放模块获取洗护添加剂的信息,将该信息发送给移动终端600上的APP。
当获取到洗护添加剂的信息的步骤完成后,APP会自动跳转至匹配可选择的洗护程序页面,APP经过一系列的算法后在该页面会显示与洗护添加剂相匹配的可选择的洗护程序以及与洗护添加剂不匹配的禁止选择的洗护程序。
或者,获取到洗护添加剂的信息的步骤完成的节点由用户决定,当用户将全部洗护添加剂或部分洗护添加剂的信息输入完成后,点击用户匹配可选择的洗护程序的接口,APP经过一系列的算法后会在页面中显示与洗护添加剂相匹配的可选择的洗护程序以及与洗护添加剂不匹配的禁止选择的洗护程序。
上述可选择的洗护程序以及禁止选择的洗护程序可由移动终端600发送衣物处理设备端的控制单元700后由用户在选择确定的洗护程序,也可以由用户在移动终端600的APP上由用户选择确定的洗护程序后,再将选择确定的洗护程序发送至衣物处理设备端的控制单元700,衣物处理设备端的控制单元700接收所述移动终端600发送的与所述洗护添加剂相匹配可选择的洗护程序信息后执行该洗护程序。
上述方案中,控制单元700与移动终端600之间可采用wifi、蓝牙、红外、射频等通信连接方式进行连接。

本发明还提供一种衣物处理设备,采用如上所述的控制方法,和/或,具有如上所述的衣物处理设备控制系统。
实施例二
如图6至图9所示,本发明提供一种衣物处理设备及其控制方法,其中,控制方法包括以下步骤:启动衣物处理设备1;确定与添加剂投放设备3连接;接收添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序信息;获取启动执行该洗护程序的指令。
具体的,上述方案中的添加剂投放设备3为与衣物处理设备1相互独立的具有自动投放洗护添加剂功能的投放设备。添加剂投放设备3能够与衣物处理设备1连接,而且,添加剂投放设备3里可预存有洗护程序信息或者从外部调取洗护程序信息。当衣物处理设备1启动时,即可接收由添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序信息,并在获取启动执行该洗护程序的指令时按照该洗护程序护理衣物。
添加剂投放设备3与衣物处理设备1可以通过232或者485等有线通讯方式进行连接,实现信息的实时交互,还可通过无线通信的方式直接进行连接。
上述方案中,对于现有的部分不具有自动投放洗护添加剂功能的衣物处理设备1而言,本发明的衣物处理设备控制方法能够使其利用添加剂投放设备3实现具有自动投放洗护添加剂的功能,扩展了洗护添加剂的投放种类;而且本发明的衣物处理设备1能够接收来自添加剂投放设备3发送的功能各异的洗护程序信息,这极大地扩展了现有衣物处理设备的功能,让很多用户在不用更换衣物处理设备的情况下也能享受到自动投放带来的便捷,提升用户的使用体验。
在本发明的一些实施例中,如图8所示,上述衣物处理设备1确定与添加剂投放设备3连接的步骤包括,衣物处理设备1接收添加剂投放设备3发送的识别信号;确认识别信号,完成衣物处理设备1与添加剂投放设备3的通信连接。
例如,可通过添加剂投放设备3的型号进行识别,当有多个添加剂投放设备3的型号一致时还可通过添加剂投放设备3的地址进行识别。不同的添加剂投放设备3会有它不同的地址,利用地址的前缀或后缀识别。添加剂投放设备3的地址可从购买时附带的产品说明书中获得。
上述方案中,每个添加剂投放设备3具有相应的识别信号,因此,不同的添加剂投放设备3发送的识别信号也不同,这样使得衣物处理设备1与添加剂投放设备3之间的连接能够一一对应,避免衣物处理设备与本不应连接的添加剂投放设备连接,造成控制的混乱。
在本发明的另外一些实施例中,如图9所示,所述衣物处理设备1确定与添加剂投放设备3连接的步骤包括,衣物处理设备1确定与智能终端2通信连接;所述智能终端2与添加剂投放设备3通信连接。
在某些特殊情况下,衣物处理设备1自身具有的与外部设备通讯连接的方式有可能与添加剂投放设备3自身具有的与外部设备通讯连接的方式不同。例如,衣物处理设备1具有wifi模块,可通过wifi与智能终端2等通讯连接,而添加剂投放设备3具有蓝牙模块,可通过蓝牙与智能终端2等通讯连接。但是衣物处理模块的wifi模块显然不能与添加剂投放设备3的蓝牙模块通信连接。因此,本发明通过利用智能终端2作为通讯枢纽,使衣物处理设备1与添加剂投放设备3之间实现通讯连接,可扩大衣物处理设备1以及添加剂投放设备3的应用范围。
在本发明的一些实施例中,所述的洗护程序信息包括添加剂投放设备3上的洗护添加剂投放信息和与信息匹配的衣物处理设备1控制参数;所述的洗护添加剂投放信息包括洗护添加剂类型信息、洗护添加剂在添加剂投放设备3上的位置信息及洗护添加剂投放时序信息。
详细的,由添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序信息应包含有洗护添加剂类型信息、洗护添加剂在添加剂投放设备3上的位置信息以及洗护添加剂投放时序信息,还包括与上述信息相匹配的能够在衣物处理设备1上运行的衣物处理设备1控制参数。
具体的,不同类型的洗护添加剂其成分以及用途各不相同,用户通常会根据家庭的需求购买相应类型的洗护添加剂;另外,随着化工技术的发展,适用于护理衣物的洗护添加剂的类型会越来越多,采用洗护添加剂护理衣物的要求也越来越高,不同的洗护程序也需要不同类型的洗护添加剂,本发明通过向衣物处理设备1发送与洗护添加剂匹配的洗护程序,能够更好地洗护衣物。
优选的,所述洗护添加剂的类型包括主洗剂和助洗剂,主洗剂包括各类型的洗涤剂;助洗剂从功能上划分包括软化剂、漂白剂、消毒剂、增香剂等。
不论是主洗剂还是助洗剂从酸碱性角度划分包括酸性洗护添加剂、中性洗护添加剂以及碱性洗护添加剂。
衣物处理设备1控制参数包括主洗程序和附加程序中的控制参数。
其中,主洗程序包括混合洗、棉织物洗、麻织物洗、丝绸织物洗、羊毛织物洗、涤纶织物洗以及羽绒服等针对不同织物材质的洗护程序;还可包括漂洗、脱水以及洗漂等针对不同进程的洗护程序。
附加程序包括消毒、杀菌、蒸汽、自清洁等实现不同功能的程序。
各洗护程序均与加热温度、转速、转停比、运行时间等衣物处理设备1的控制参数有关。
不同类型、成分、酸碱度的洗护添加剂其适用于护理衣物的洗护程序不尽相同。
例如,对于棉织物而言,其耐碱性强,但是不耐酸,而对于丝绸织物而言,其忌用碱水洗,适用于中性洗护添加剂。如果添加剂投放设备3中储存的所有的洗护添加剂均为碱性洗护添加剂,那么对应的针对棉织物的“棉织物洗”为允许进行的洗护程序,而对应的针对丝绸的“丝绸织物洗”为不被允许进行的洗护程序。
允许进行的针对棉织物的“棉织物洗”洗护程序信息即为包括有洗护添加剂类型信息、洗护添加剂在添加剂投放设备3上的位置信息以及洗护添加剂投放时序信息,还有与上述信息相匹配的能够在衣物处理设备1上运行的衣物处理设备控制参数。
换言之,此时添加剂投放设备3向衣物处理设备1发送的洗护程序信息中不会出现对丝绸织物进行洗护的洗护程序,“丝绸织物洗”不会被推荐给用户。如果用户想对丝绸织物或者羊毛类织物进行护理,则应更换适用于丝绸织物的洗护添加剂,例如丝毛洗涤剂,这样使洗护添加剂与洗护程序关联起来,大大提升了衣物处理设备1对衣物的护理效果,也能够避免由于用户对洗护添加剂的不了解而导致对衣物造成损伤。
进一步的方案中,衣物处理设备1接收添加剂投放设备3发送的匹配洗护添加剂投放信息所有洗护程 序。
上述方案中,添加剂投放设备3根据洗护添加剂的类型匹配的允许投放洗护添加剂的洗护程序会全部发送至衣物处理设备1,由用户决定采用哪一种洗护程序护理衣物,或者,衣物处理设备1根据负载量、和/或负载材质、和/或脏污度、和/或进水量、和/或水质、和/或水温匹配接收的所有洗护程序中的一种洗护程序。
还可以的,对于衣物处理设备1接收的添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序,还可在衣物处理设备1上修改。
具体的,假设有n种不同的洗护添加剂X1、X2、X3、……XN,而针对该n种不同的洗护添加剂则对应匹配有可选择的m种不同的洗护程序Y1、Y2、Y3、……YM。其中,洗护程序Y1中的运行参数允许投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN,那么洗护程序Y1中就关联有洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息。例如,洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN在洗护程序Y1运行时的投放量、投放时序以及洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的储存位置是默认关联,当用户选择洗护程序Y1进行洗护时,则按照默认关联关系投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN。
可选的,当洗护程序Y1中的运行参数允许投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN时,洗护程序Y1中就关联有洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息,但是,用户可对洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息进行修改。例如投放量以及投放时序可由用户修改,用户还可以取消洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN中的其中一种或两种洗护添加剂的投放信息。
可选的,衣物处理设备1或用户可基于负载量、和/或负载材质、和/或脏污度、和/或进水量、和/或水质、和/或水温进行上述修改。
修改完成后,当用户选定洗护程序Y1时,按照修改后的投放信息执行。
进一步的方案中,所述添加剂投放设备3从所述衣物处理设备1或智能终端2或添加剂投放设备3的数据库中获取衣物处理设备控制参数。
上述方案中,添加剂投放设备3获取衣物处理设备控制参数的途径多样,进一步扩展衣物处理设备1的功能。
在本发明的一些实施例中,衣物处理设备1接收添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序信息后,还包括确认待执行的洗护程序,并将该确认待执行的洗护程序反馈给添加剂投放设备3,用于添加剂投放设备3根据该反馈的洗护程序投放洗护添加剂;衣物处理设备1接收添加剂投放设备3发送的启动指令。
详细的,如前所述,添加剂投放设备3可能向衣物处理设备1发送至少一条与洗护添加剂信息相匹配的洗护程序信息,然而,衣物处理设备1接收到这些洗护程序信息后,还应由用户确认选用哪一种洗护程序护理衣物。这就存在一种可能,那就是添加剂投放设备3向衣物处理设备1发送的洗护程序信息并不能满足用户的衣物护理需求。
因此,当衣物处理设备1接收添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序信息后,还应向添加剂投放设备3反馈,确认有或没有洗护程序将被执行。
当确认有洗护程序将被执行时,衣物处理设备1接收添加剂投放设备3发送的启动指令,执行确认的洗护程序。
上述方案中,如图6所示,本发明的控制方法具体包括以下步骤:
S1,启动衣物处理设备1;
S101,确定与添加剂投放设备3连接;
S102,接收添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序信息;
S103,确认待执行的洗护程序;
S104,将该确认待执行的洗护程序反馈给添加剂投放设备3;
S105,接收添加剂投放设备3发送的启动指令;
S106,执行洗护。
上述方案能够使现有衣物处理设备1满足用户精细化护理衣物的需求。
在本发明的另外一些实施例中,洗护添加剂投放设备3向衣物处理设备1发送的所述洗护程序信息即包括有控制衣物处理设备1启动该洗护程序的指令。
上述方案中,如图7所示,本发明的控制方法具体包括以下步骤:
S2,启动衣物处理设备1;
S201,确定与添加剂投放设备3连接;
S202,接收添加剂投放设备3发送的洗护程序信息;
S203,执行洗护。
上述方案可简化衣物处理设备1的控制方法,减少添加剂投放设备3和衣物处理设备1的逻辑运算,提高设备响应速度,提升用户使用体验,还能够能够使衣物处理设备1与洗护添加剂投放设备3配合使用的过程中仍然保留一键启动的功能。
在本发明的一些实施例中,衣物处理设备1启动洗护程序后还包括,检测衣物处理设备1中增加洗护程序中未包含的程序信息,该程序信息包括需要添加剂投放设备3执行的指令;将该增加的程序信息反馈给添加剂投放设备3。
详细的,衣物处理设备1启动洗护程序后,用户还可中途增加额外的程序信息,例如,增加漂洗次数或加热等。而其中漂洗程序的进水过程是需要添加剂投放设备3配合的,但是,该漂洗程序在进水时是不需要投放洗护添加剂的。
因此,本发明的衣物处理设备1在运行过程中如果检测到用户增加了原洗护程序中未包含的程序信息,而增加的程序信息还需要添加剂投放设备3配合才能执行时,应将该增加的程序信息反馈至添加剂投放设备3,使添加剂投放设备3知晓本次进水为额外新增的漂洗程序,不必控制洗护添加剂自动投放,避免由于用户操作而引起的控制逻辑混乱。
本发明的衣物处理设备1可采用上述的控制方法,能够使衣物处理设备1利用添加剂投放设备3实现具有自动投放洗护添加剂的功能,而且本发明的衣物处理设备1能够接收来自添加剂投放设备3发送的功能各异的洗护程序信息,这极大地扩展了现有衣物处理设备1的功能,让很多用户在不用更换衣物处理设 备的情况下也能享受到自动投放添加剂带来的便捷,提升用户的使用体验。
实施例三
如图10和图11所示,本发明提供一种添加剂投放设备及其推荐洗护程序的方法。其中,如图10所示,推荐洗护程序的方法包括:
获取洗护添加剂的信息;生成与所述洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序;将该洗护程序传送给衣物处理设备1。
本发明的添加剂投放设备3包括若干投放单元102,投放单元102上设置有安装槽,安装槽用于安装储存有洗护添加剂的储液盒,用于抽取洗护添加剂的泵和用于投放洗护添加剂的投放水路。储液盒具有储存洗护添加剂的储存腔室。投放水路具有进水口、进料口、和出液口。泵优选为计量泵。
投放水路的进料口通过泵与所述储存腔室连通,用于使洗护添加剂从储存腔室吸取至投放水路内。投放水路的进水口与用户家中的水源连通,用于水进入投放水路中冲洗、稀释洗护添加剂。投放水路的出液口与衣物处理设备1的洗涤筒的入水口连通,用于将混合有洗护添加剂和水的溶液导入洗涤筒内护理衣物。所述储液盒可以为可更换的一次性容器或多次补液的容器,每个储液盒中储存一种洗护添加剂。
若所述洗护添加剂投放设备3与衣物处理设备1为相互独立的两套设备,投放水路的出液口优选与衣物处理设备1的进水口连通。
具体的,不同的洗护添加剂其成分以及用途各不相同,用户通常会根据家庭的需求购买相应类型的洗护添加剂。而且,随着化工技术的发展,适用于护理衣物的洗护添加剂的类型会越来越多。
可选的,所述洗护添加剂的类型包括主洗剂和助洗剂,主洗剂包括各类型的洗涤剂;助洗剂从功能上划分包括软化剂、漂白剂、消毒剂、增香剂等。
不论是主洗剂还是助洗剂从酸碱性角度划分洗护添加剂又包括酸性洗护添加剂、中性洗护添加剂以及碱性洗护添加剂。
生成的与洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序可以包括主洗程序和附加程序。
其中,主洗程序包括混合洗、棉织物洗、麻织物洗、丝绸织物洗、羊毛织物洗、涤纶织物洗以及羽绒服等针对不同织物材质的洗护程序;还可包括漂洗、脱水以及洗漂等针对不同进程的洗护程序。
附加程序包括消毒、杀菌、蒸汽、自清洁等实现不同功能的程序。
各洗护程序均与加热温度、转速、转停比、运行时间等衣物处理设备1的控制参数有关。
不同类型、成分、酸碱度的洗护添加剂其适用于护理衣物的洗护程序不尽相同。
例如,对于棉织物而言,其耐碱性强,但是不耐酸,而对于丝绸织物而言,其忌用碱水洗,适用于中性洗护添加剂。如果获取洗护添加剂的信息后发现所有的洗护添加剂均为碱性洗护添加剂,那么生成的与洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序中可以包括针对棉织物的“棉织物洗”或者针对麻织物的“麻织物洗”等程序,但是不会生成针对丝绸的“丝绸织物洗”。
换言之,此时生成的洗护程序中没有可选择的洗护程序供用户选择对丝绸织物进行洗护。如果用户想对丝绸织物或者羊毛类织物进行护理,则应更换适用于丝绸织物的洗护添加剂,例如丝毛洗涤剂,这样使 洗护添加剂与洗护程序关联起来,大大提升了洗护添加剂对衣物的护理效果。
进一步的方案中,生成与所述洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序时还应与洗护添加剂的信息相关联,当运行上述生成的洗护程序时就会适时按量投放所述洗护添加剂。
在本发明的一些实施例中,获取洗护添加剂的信息为在增加新的洗护添加剂或更换新的洗护添加剂后执行的步骤。
详细的,对于本发明的具有自动投放功能的添加剂投放设备3而言,其安装有储存洗护添加剂的储液盒,当储液盒内的洗护添加剂未用完时,洗护添加剂的信息一般不会改变,同样在储液盒中补充同类洗护添加剂时,洗护添加剂的信息也不会改变;但是,若将储放盒取出再放入安装槽时,由于不确定是否更换洗护添加剂的类型,因此会再次执行获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤。
即,在增加新的洗护添加剂或更换新的洗护添加剂后获取洗护添加剂的信息,而在并未增加新的洗护添加剂或更换新的洗护添加剂的情况下则采用最近一次获取的洗护添加剂的信息调取洗护程序。
进一步的方案中,将生成的与洗护添加剂匹配的洗护程序存储,用于在添加剂投放设备3与衣物处理设备1连接时,直接将该洗护程序传送给衣物处理设备1;当获取新的洗护添加剂信息,生成新的洗护程序时将存储的洗护程序更新。
上述方案中,当更换洗护添加剂或增加新的洗护添加剂后,添加剂投放设备3重新获取洗护添加剂的信息,生成新的洗护程序,并将重新生成的洗护程序储存,在更新后的洗护添加剂未用完或者未更换前即可随时调用已储存的洗护程序,简化添加剂投放设备3的处理过程,提高设备的响应速度,提升用户使用体验。
在本发明的另外一些实施例中,所述获取洗护添加剂的信息还可以在添加剂投放设备3开机时执行的步骤。
详细的,对于本实施例中每次添加剂投放设备3开机时均执行获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤而言,则不需要对洗护添加剂的信息进行储存,每次开机即获取洗护添加剂的信息,然后再调取与其适配的洗护程序。
另外,在本实施例中,添加剂投放设备3每次开机时均执行获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤,对于一些特殊情况也具有现实意义。例如,对于公共使用的衣物处理设备1而言,洗护添加剂需要用户自带,不同的用户携带的洗护添加剂不同。那么衣物处理设备1或添加剂投放设备3开机时会获取用户自带的洗护添加剂的信息,并生成一个或多个与用户自带的洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序传送给衣物处理设备1,如果至少有一个洗护程序适用于用户本次需护理的衣物则可进行下一步的操作,进行洗护。如果生成的所有洗护程序均与用户本次需护理的衣物不匹配,那么用户发现衣物处理设备1未提供可供选择的洗护程序时则应更换洗护添加剂。
上述方案中可采用如下实施方式获取洗护添加剂的信息:
可选的实施方式为,通过检测洗护添加剂成分获取洗护添加剂的类型。详细的,设置能够检测洗护添加剂成分的添加剂成分检测单元,例如微型光谱仪或探针等。
还可选的实施方式为,通过识别洗护添加剂的容器标签信息获取洗护添加剂的类型。例如,用户购买 的洗护添加剂的容器上通常设有容器标签,容器标签内嵌设有内装洗护添加剂的相关信息,例如,用途、酸碱度、用量等。容器标签可为二维码、条形码等;也可为RFID电子标签等,通过识别解析标签信息获取内装洗护添加剂的相关信息。
还可选的实施方式为,衣物处理设备1接收用户输入的信息获取洗护添加剂的类型。详细的,用户可阅读洗护添加剂的容器标签上标注的信息后手动输入或选择该信息,以便生成与该洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序供用户选择。
上述可选的实施方式可结合实施,也可单独实施。
此外,可以理解的是,上述获取洗护添加剂的信息还可在衣物处理设备1本机上实施,然后将信息传输给添加剂投放设备3,添加剂投放设备3基于该接收的洗护添加剂的信息生成洗护程序。对于已售的衣物处理设备1,如果衣物处理设备1上已经设置有能够获取洗护添加剂的信息的获取单元100,那么用户在选购添加剂投放设备3时即可选用不设置获取单元100的添加剂投放设备3,节省成本。如果衣物处理设备1上没有设置所述获取单元100,那么用户在选购添加剂投放设备3时就需要选用设置有所述获取单元100的添加剂投放设备3,以使添加剂投放设备3能够实现推荐洗护程序的功能。
当获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤是在添加剂投放设备3上实施时,所述获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤还包括,获取洗护添加剂的储存位置。
具体的,通过在对应位置检测洗护添加剂成分获取洗护添加剂的类型和储存位置;和/或,通过在对应位置识别洗护添加剂的容器标签信息获取洗护添加剂的类型和储存位置;和/或,添加剂投放设备3接收用户输入的信息获取洗护添加剂的类型和储存位置。
在本发明的一些实施例中,所述生成与所述洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序的步骤包括:调取添加剂投放设备3存储的与洗护添加剂的信息相匹配的洗护程序,或者,接收移动终端或云端传送的与洗护添加剂的信息相匹配的洗护程序,或者,对应洗护添加剂的信息编辑生成的洗护程序。优选的,洗护程序包括主洗程序和附加程序。
详细的,本发明的添加剂投放设备3还可预先存储有一定量的洗护添加剂的信息以及与这些洗护添加剂的信息相匹配的洗护程序。
当获取到洗护添加剂的信息后,从本机存储数据库中调取与获取到的洗护添加剂的信息相匹配的洗护程序,并发送给衣物处理设备1。
还可以的,添加剂投放设备3中并没有存储洗护添加剂的信息与洗护程序的关联信息。此时,当获取到洗护添加剂的信息后,添加剂投放设备3通过无线传输的方式与移动终端或云端连接,调取存储在移动终端或云端的洗护添加剂的信息与洗护程序的关联信息,生成与所述洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序。
上述方案中,添加剂投放设备3与移动终端或云端之间可采用wifi、蓝牙、红外、射频等无线通讯方式进行连接。
还可以的,处理单元200设有可接收编辑内容的接口,当获取到洗护添加剂的信息后,可对应洗护添加剂的信息编辑生成新的洗护程序。
在本发明的一些实施例中,与所述洗护添加剂对应匹配至少一洗护程序,添加剂投放设备3对应洗护 添加剂具有默认洗护程序。
详细的,如前所述,洗护程序的类别众多,对于洗护添加剂而言,必然至少有一洗护程序与之对应匹配,那么对于添加剂投放设备3而言,对应洗护添加剂可具有默认洗护程序。
进一步的方案中,在添加剂投放设备3上修改/选择所述洗护添加剂对应的洗护程序,将确定的洗护程序传送给衣物处理设备1。
上述方案可减少添加剂投放设备3在生成与所述洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序时的处理时间,加快响应速度,提升用户使用体验。
具体的,假设有n种不同的洗护添加剂X1、X2、X3、……XN,而针对该n种不同的洗护添加剂则对应匹配有可选择的m种不同的洗护程序Y1、Y2、Y3、……YM。其中,洗护程序Y1中的运行参数允许投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN,那么洗护程序Y1中就默认关联有洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息。例如,洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN在洗护程序Y1运行时的投放量、投放时序以及洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的储存位置是默认关联,当用户选择洗护程序Y1进行洗护时,则按照默认关联关系投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN。
可选的,当洗护程序Y1中的运行参数允许投放洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN时,洗护程序Y1中就关联有洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息,但是,用户可对洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN的投放信息进行修改。例如投放量以及投放时序可由用户修改,用户还可以取消洗护添加剂X1、X2、XN中的其中一种或两种洗护添加剂的投放信息。
修改完成后,当用户选定洗护程序Y1时,按照修改后的投放信息执行。
在本发明的一些实施例中,所述洗护程序包括衣物处理设备1的程序参数及洗护添加剂的投放信息,洗护添加剂的投放信息包括洗护添加剂的类型、洗护添加剂的储存位置及洗护添加剂的投放时序。
优选的,所述衣物处理设备1的程序参数包括控制参数和/或负载参数和/或进水参数。
其中,衣物处理设备1的控制参数包括转速、转停比、加热温度等至少一种参数,负载参数包括负载量、负载材质等至少一种参数,进水参数包括进水量、水温、进水硬度等至少一种参数。
优选的方案中,所述程序参数由衣物处理设备1传送给添加剂投放设备3。
如图11所示,本发明的添加剂投放设备3包括获取单元100、处理单元200和通讯单元104。
其中,获取单元100用于获取洗护添加剂的类型,所述获取单元100包括洗护添加剂成分检测单元和/或电子识别单元和/或信息输入单元。
详细的,添加剂成分检测器可以是微型光谱仪或探针等。
电子识别单元可以带扫描功能,或者带芯片识别功能等,能够通过获取洗护添加剂的容器标签信息获取所述洗护添加剂的信息。
信息输入单元可以具有选择功能或者输入功能,由用户阅读洗护添加剂的容器标签上标注的信息后手动输入或选择该洗护添加剂信息以传送给处理单元200。
处理单元200与所述获取单元100连接,接收所述获取单元100获取到的所述洗护添加剂的信息,根据所述洗护添加剂的信息生成匹配该洗护添加剂的洗护程序。
可选的实施方式中,处理单元200接收来自获取单元100的洗护添加剂的信息后,从处理单元200自身预先写入的洗护程序中调取允许投放所述洗护添加剂的洗护程序并将调取的洗护程序与所述洗护添加剂的信息进行关联。
通常,处理单元200中预先写入的洗护程序中包括多个能够与洗护添加剂相适配的洗护程序供用户选择,用户根据待护理的衣物信息从多个洗护程序中选择一确定的洗护程序,然后再通过通讯单元104将该确定的洗护程序发送给衣物处理设备1。当衣物处理设备1运行该确定的洗护程序时,调取与该洗护程序对应关联的洗护添加剂的投放信息。
或者,处理单元200将多个能够与洗护添加剂相适配的洗护程序都发送给衣物处理设备1供用户选择,当用户从多个洗护程序中选择一确定的洗护程序,衣物处理设备1运行该确定的洗护程序时,调取与该洗护程序对应关联的洗护添加剂的投放信息。
上述方案中,处理单元200根据所述洗护添加剂的信息调取并关联允许投放该洗护添加剂的洗护程序,保障洗护程序与洗护添加剂的适配性,避免不适于洗护添加剂的洗护程序运行,损坏衣物。
还可选的实施方式中,添加剂投放设备3还包括服务器300,服务器300与所述处理单元200连接,所述服务器300内存储有与所述洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序信息供所述处理单元200调取。
上述方案中,服务器300还可以为网络服务器,处理单元200可通过无线通讯的方式与服务器300连接,从服务器300上调取与所述洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序信息。服务器300内存储有大量与所述洗护添加剂相匹配的洗护程序信息供所述处理单元200调取。服务器300中存储的洗护程序信息能够实时更新,能够克服由于洗护添加剂的类型或成分等的增加无洗护程序与之相匹配的问题。
在本发明的一些实施例中,添加剂投放设备3还包括控制单元700,控制单元700与所述投放单元102连接,用于按照洗护程序控制允许投放的洗护添加剂的自动投放。本发明添加剂投放设备3,使得衣物处理设备1获得了自动投放洗护添加剂的功能,扩展了洗护添加剂的投放种类,提升了对衣物的护理效果。
优选的,本发明所述洗护添加剂投放设备3与衣物处理设备1为相互独立的两套设备。但是,上述洗护添加剂投放设备3也可为衣物处理设备1的一部分,安装在衣物处理设备1内部或外部,本领域技术人员能够根据上述方案适当调整以实现本发明的目的。
实施例四
如图9、图12至图14所示,本发明提供一种智能终端推荐洗护程序的方法以及用于实施推荐洗护程序的方法的智能终端。
其中,如图12所示,智能终端推荐洗护程序的方法包括:确认智能终端2与衣物处理设备1和添加剂投放设备3通信连接;获取洗护添加剂信息;生成包含洗护添加剂投放信息的洗护程序;将所述洗护程序传输给衣物处理设备1。
具体的,如图9所示,智能终端2与衣物处理设备1和添加剂投放设备3可采用wifi、蓝牙、红外、射频等无线通讯的连接方式连接。
当智能终端2分别与衣物处理设备1和添加剂投放设备3确认已通讯连接后,那么智能终端2与衣物处理设备1和添加剂投放设备3之间即可进行数据传输。
当智能终端2获取洗护添加剂的信息并生成包含洗护添加剂投放信息的洗护程序后,将所述的洗护程序传输给衣物处理设备1,衣物处理设备1按照洗护程序护理衣物。
可选的,智能终端2上安装有用户操作的APP,在APP中能够操作获取并显示洗护添加剂的信息,还能够通过APP控制衣物处理设备1和/或添加剂投放设备3。
上述方案中尤其适用于扩展已售衣物处理设备的功能。对于目前大部分的已售衣物处理设备而言,其不具有能够基于洗护添加剂信息生成洗护程序的功能,也不具有能够自动投放洗护添加剂的功能,但是却具有能够跟智能终端通信的功能。
即使现有衣物处理设备具备能够自动投放洗护添加剂的功能,但是由于其投放洗护添加剂的种类、投放时序及洗护程序已被固化,无法自动投放市场上新增加的、具有不同功能的洗护添加剂,也不能对不同材质的衣物进行精细的护理。
当本发明智能终端2基于洗护添加剂的信息生成包含洗护添加剂投放信息的洗护程序时,将洗护程序传输给衣物处理设备1,那么衣物处理设备1就能够按照智能终端2生成的洗护程序运行,同时按照洗护添加剂投放信息控制添加剂投放设备3投放洗护添加剂,这极大地扩展了现有衣物处理设备的功能,让很多用户在不用更换衣物处理设备的情况下也能享受到自动投放带来的便捷。
上述方案中可采用如下实施方式获取洗护添加剂的信息:
可选的实施方式为,通过检测洗护添加剂成分获取洗护添加剂的类型。详细的,设置能够检测洗护添加剂成分的添加剂成分检测器,例如微型光谱仪或探针等。
还可选的实施方式为,通过识别洗护添加剂的容器标签信息获取洗护添加剂的类型。例如,用户购买的洗护添加剂的容器上通常设有容器标签,容器标签内嵌设有内装洗护添加剂的相关信息,例如,用途、酸碱度、用量等。容器标签可为二维码、条形码;也可为RFID电子标签等,通过识别解析标签信息获取内装洗护添加剂的相关信息。
还可选的实施方式为,智能终端2接收用户输入的信息获取洗护添加剂的类型。详细的,用户可阅读洗护添加剂的容器标签上标注的信息后手动输入或选择该信息,以便生成包含洗护添加剂投放信息的洗护程序供用户选择。
上述可选的实施方式可结合实施,也可单独实施。
此外,可以理解的是,上述获取洗护添加剂的信息可在智能终端2上实施,也可以在衣物处理设备1上实施,还可以在添加剂投放设备3上实施,若所述获取单元设置在衣物处理设备1或添加剂投放设备3上,获取单元获取的洗护添加剂的信息后传送给智能终端2,使智能终端2基于洗护添加剂的信息生成洗护程序。
所述获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤还包括,获取洗护添加剂的储存位置。根据洗护添加剂的投放时序,控制对应该储存位置的洗护添加剂投放。
具体的,当获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤是在衣物处理设备1和/或添加剂投放设备3上实施时,通过在对应位置检测洗护添加剂成分获取洗护添加剂的类型和储存位置;和/或,通过在对应位置读取洗护添加剂的容器标签信息获取洗护添加剂的类型和储存位置;和/或,衣物处理设备1和/或添加剂投放设备 3接收用户输入的信息获取洗护添加剂的类型和储存位置。最后,衣物处理设备1和/或添加剂投放设备3获取的洗护添加剂信息传送给智能终端2。
当获取洗护添加剂的信息的步骤是在智能终端2上实施时,智能终端2的APP上设有与衣物处理设备1和/或添加剂投放设备3中洗护添加剂储存位置一一对应的虚拟位置,先确定一虚拟位置,对应在该虚拟位置通过读取或输入的方式获取一洗护添加剂的类型信息,此时智能终端2获取该洗护添加剂的类型与储存位置。洗护添加剂可以设置在衣物处理设备1和/或添加剂投放设备3中,由衣物处理设备1和/或添加剂投放设备3对应投放。
添加剂投放设备3包括若干投放单元,投放单元上设置有安装槽,安装槽用于安装储存有洗护添加剂的储液盒,用于抽取洗护添加剂的泵和用于投放洗护添加剂的投放水路。储液盒具有储存洗护添加剂的储存腔室。投放水路具有进水口、进料口、和出液口。泵优选为计量泵。
投放水路的进料口通过泵与所述储存腔室连通,用于使洗护添加剂从储存腔室吸取至投放水路内。投放水路的进水口与用户家中的水源连通,用于水进入投放水路中冲洗、稀释洗护添加剂。投放水路的出液口与衣物处理设备1的洗涤筒的入水口连通,用于将混合有洗护添加剂和水的溶液导入洗涤筒内护理衣物。所述储液盒可以为可更换的一次性容器或多次补液的容器,每个储液盒中储存一种洗护添加剂。
若所述添加剂投放设备3与衣物处理设备1为相互独立的两套设备,投放水路的出液口优选与衣物处理设备1的进水口连通。
在本发明的一些实施例中,如图13所示,所述生成包含洗护添加剂投放信息的洗护程序的步骤包括,获取洗护添加剂的投放信息,包括洗护添加剂的类型、洗护添加剂的储存位置及洗护添加剂的投放时序;调取与洗护添加剂的投放信息相匹配的洗护程序。
详细的,不同的洗护添加剂其成分以及用途各不相同,用户通常会根据家庭的需求购买相应类型的洗护添加剂。而且,随着化工技术的发展,适用于护理衣物的洗护添加剂的类型会越来越多。
优选的,所述洗护添加剂的类型包括主洗剂和助洗剂,主洗剂包括各类型的洗涤剂;助洗剂从功能上划分包括软化剂、漂白剂、消毒剂、增香剂等。
不论是主洗剂还是助洗剂从酸碱性角度划分包括酸性洗护添加剂、中性洗护添加剂以及碱性洗护添加剂。
洗护程序包括主洗程序和附加程序可供调取。
其中,主洗程序包括混合洗、棉织物洗、麻织物洗、丝绸织物洗、羊毛织物洗、涤纶织物洗以及羽绒服等针对不同织物材质的洗护程序;还可包括漂洗、脱水以及洗漂等针对不同进程的洗护程序。
附加程序包括消毒、杀菌、蒸汽、自清洁等实现不同功能的程序。
各洗护程序均与加热温度、转速、转停比、运行时间等衣物处理设备1的控制参数有关。
不同类型、成分、酸碱度的洗护添加剂其适用于护理衣物的洗护程序不尽相同。
例如,对于棉织物而言,其耐碱性强,但是不耐酸,而对于丝绸织物而言,其忌用碱水洗,适用于中性洗护添加剂。如果获取洗护添加剂的信息后发现所有的洗护添加剂均为碱性洗护添加剂,那么生成的与 洗护添加剂对应匹配的洗护程序中可以包括针对棉织物的“棉织物洗”或者针对麻织物的“麻织物洗”等程序,但是不会生成针对丝绸的“丝绸织物洗”。
换言之,此时生成的洗护程序中没有可选择的洗护程序供用户选择对丝绸织物进行洗护。如果用户想对丝绸织物或者羊毛类织物进行护理,则应更换适用于丝绸织物的洗护添加剂,例如丝毛洗涤剂,这样使洗护添加剂与洗护程序关联起来,大大提升了洗护添加剂对衣物的护理效果。
进一步的方案中,所述调取的洗护程序为多组,根据获取衣物处理设备1的程序参数选择对应匹配的洗护程序,衣物处理设备1的程序参数至少包括衣物处理设备1控制参数和/或负载参数和/或进水参数。
详细的,如前所述,洗护程序的类别众多,对于洗护添加剂而言,必然至少有一洗护程序与之对应匹配,那么在调取的众多洗护程序中还可根据获取衣物处理设备1的程序参数选择对应匹配的洗护程序,衣物处理设备1的程序参数至少包括衣物处理设备1控制参数和/或负载参数和/或进水参数。
其中,衣物处理设备1的控制参数包括转速、转停比、加热温度等至少一种参数,负载参数包括负载量、负载材质等至少一种参数,进水参数包括进水量、水温、进水硬度等至少一种参数。
在本发明的一些实施例中,如图14所示,所述生成包含洗护添加剂投放信息的洗护程序的步骤包括,获取洗护添加剂的投放信息,包括洗护添加剂的类型、洗护添加剂的储存位置及洗护添加剂的投放时序;获取衣物处理设备1的程序参数,包括衣物处理设备1控制参数和/或负载参数和/或进水参数;根据衣物处理设备1程序参数和洗护添加剂的投放信息,生成所述的洗护程序。
当智能终端2获取洗护添加剂的投放信息和衣物处理设备1的程序参数后,结合二者生成洗护程序。
上述方案中,所述洗护添加剂的储存位置包括在衣物处理设备1的添加剂投放设备3中储存的位置和/或在外置的添加剂投放设备3中储存的位置,智能终端2根据洗护添加剂的类型可选择地从衣物处理设备1的添加剂投放设备3和/或外置的添加剂投放设备3中调取洗护添加剂的位置。
详细的,在推荐洗护程序时还应结合洗护添加剂的储存位置,以便在推荐的洗护程序中也包含有洗护添加剂的储存位置信息,衣物处理设备1在按照洗护程序运行时即可按照洗护添加剂不同的储存位置在不同时序投放洗护添加剂。

实施例五
如图15至图21所示,本实施例提供了一种添加剂投放设备的投放控制方法,所述添加剂投放设备包括存储有添加剂的储液模块101和用于投放添加剂的投放模块103;如图15所示,所述添加剂投放设备的控制单元可根据获取到的储液模块101的状态参数信息,来控制投放模块103锁定或解锁。
本实施例提供的添加剂投放设备的控制单元可以根据获取到的储液模块101的状态参数信息,来控制投放模块103是否解锁,使得投放模块103能够做出准确的动作,以保护洗护负载和添加剂投放设备免受因储液模块的状态参数信息不符合预设条件而带来的损伤。
进一步地,所述状态参数信息包括储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息,所述储液模块101包括内部存储有添加剂的添加剂盒,所述添加剂盒上设置有内部存储有添加剂盒添加剂的参数信息的识别芯片,所述添加剂投放设备还包括通过识别所述识别芯片获得所述添加剂盒添加剂的参数信息的识别模块105,所述识别模块105可将识别到的储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息反馈至控制单元。
本实施例中所述的储液模块101为墨盒式的一次性的添加剂盒,所述添加剂盒上设置有存储有添加剂盒添加剂的参数信息的识别芯片,所述识别芯片与添加剂的信息一一对应。所述识别模块不限于芯片记录添加剂盒中添加剂的信息,读写器获取相关信息,识别模块也可以理解为识别系统,识别系统也可包含添加剂传感器、与传感器相连接的信息接收装置和/或发送装置,该识别系统可将识别的信息与投放模块103进行实时传输和交互。
所述添加剂的参数信息包括但不限于储液模块101内添加剂的类型、品牌、浓度、粘稠度、成分质量、规格容量、生产时间、保质期等添加剂的参数信息。所述添加剂包括但不限于洗涤剂、柔顺剂、消毒剂等其他类型的衣物洗护添加剂。
具体地,所述添加剂的参数信息包括储液模块101内添加剂的品牌信息,控制单元若判断到储液模块101的品牌是非指定品牌的,则控制投放模块103锁定;控制单元若判断到储液模块101的品牌是指定品牌的,则控制投放模块103解锁。
本实施例提供的添加剂投放设备通过判断所述储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息是否为指定的品牌的,来控制投放模块103是否锁定,避免出现由于用户自行将添加剂盒更换为其他品牌的,而添加剂投放设备未能识别出来,造成因为不同品牌的添加剂盒内添加剂浓度、粘稠度、质量等不同,导致的添加剂投放设备的投放精度相差太大或者投放口堵塞等问题,保证衣物的清洁效果的同时,延长了添加剂投放设备的使用寿命。
优选地,所述投放模块103的控制单元判断到储液模块101的品牌是非指定品牌的,在控制投放模块103锁定的同时,还会向用户发出提示信息。所述添加剂投放设备可以通过语音或者灯光闪烁等方式,向用户发出储液模块101的品牌非指定品牌请及时更换所述储液模块101的信息,让用户能够及时更换储液 模块101,避免由于储液模块101的品牌是非指定品牌的,影响添加剂投放设备投放进程。
在另一种实施方式中,如图16所示,所述添加剂的参数信息还包括储液模块101内添加剂的类型信息,控制单元若判断到储液模块101内添加剂的类型非预设类型,则控制所述投放模块103锁定;控制单元若判断到储液模块101内添加剂的品牌是指定品牌的,且所述添加剂的类型也是预设类型的,则控制所述投放模块103解锁。
进一步地,所述添加剂投放设备内设置有专门用于放置某种类型添加剂盒的放置腔107,例如:所述添加剂投放设备内设置有指定放置洗涤剂的洗涤剂放置腔107,当检测到所述洗涤剂放置腔107内放置了添加剂盒时,所述识别模块105会通过识别所述添加剂盒上的识别芯片,进而来获得添加剂盒内添加剂的类型信息,若判断到添加剂盒内的添加剂所述添加剂的品牌是指定品牌,且类型是洗涤剂,则控制所述投放模块103解锁;若判断到所述添加剂盒内的添加剂不是洗涤剂,则控制所述投放模块103锁定。
通过上述设计,有效地避免了用户误把柔顺剂当成洗涤剂、或者误把洗涤剂当成柔顺剂、或者误把消毒剂当成洗涤剂等其他误投放的现象发生,不仅会影响衣物的清洁效果,严重还会对衣物造成不同程度的损伤,影响用户的使用体验。
在另一种实施方式中,所述状态参数信息还包括储液模块101的位置参数信息,所述添加剂投放设备上设置有用于放置所述储液模块101的放置腔107,所述添加剂投放设备内设置有用于检测储液模块101位置的位置检测模块,所述位置检测模块可以设置在放置腔107内,或者放置腔107外壁,或者储液模块101的其他位置,或者也可以设置在投放模块103上,所述位置检测模块为压力传感器或者红外传感器等。
如图16所示,所述位置检测模块若检测到放置腔107内的储液模块101被取出,则向控制反馈储液模块101被取出的反馈信号,控制单元则控制投放模块103锁定,在每次将储液模块101取出时,所述控制单元均会控制投放模块103锁定,避免出现空投放的现象,不仅影响洗涤效果,还会缩短添加剂投放设备的使用寿命。
当所述位置检测模块若检测到所述放置腔107内重新放置有储液模块101,控制单元则控制识别模块105重新识别储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息:
若所述识别模块105识别到所述储液模块101的品牌为指定的品牌,所述控制单元则控制所述投放模块103解锁;若所述识别模块105未识别到储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息,或者识别到储液模块101的品牌是非指定品牌的,控制单元则控制所述投放模块103保持锁定状态。
通过上述设计方案,一方面避免了添加剂投放设备空投放的现象,保证了添加剂投放设备的安全运行,另一方面也避免了由于用户自行更换其他品牌的储液模块101,造成因为不同品牌的添加剂浓度、粘稠度、储液模块101型号尺寸等不同,导致添加剂投放设备的投放精度相差太大或者投放口堵塞等其它不可控的问题,影响用户的使用体验。
在另一种实施方式中,所述添加剂投放设备具有多个用于放置储液模块101的放置腔107,所述储液模块101也为多个一一放置于指定的放置腔107内,所述投放模块103包括与多个所述储液模块101一一对应设置的多个投放泵,多个所述投放泵与多个所述储液模块101一一对应连通,用于单独抽吸投放不同储液模块101内的添加剂。
在一种方案中,若识别模块105识别到其中任一放置腔107内的储液模块101的类型/品牌并非预设的类型/品牌时,则控制所述投放模块103锁定。当识别模块105识别到其中一个放置腔107内的储液模块101的类型是非预设类型的,或者是非预设的品牌的,则控制所有的投放泵锁定,向用户发出提示信息,例如某某放置腔107的储液模块101不是预设类型的或者不是预设品牌,请及时更换的提示信息。
通过上述设计,能够有效地保证了添加剂投放设备的整个投放工作能够顺利地进行,避免出现在投放的过程中由于哪个放置腔107内的添加剂不对,无法正常继续投放,投放中断,影响整个投放进程的现象发生。
或者,在另一种方案中,若识别模块105识别到其中一个或多个放置腔107内的储液模块101的类型/品牌并非预设的类型/品牌时,则控制相应的放置腔107所对应的投放泵锁定,并向用户发出提示信息,及时提示用户更换储液模块101。在其中一个或多个放置腔107内的添加剂不对时,由于该添加剂可能在本次投放中是不会被使用到的,因此,控制其他放置腔107的投放泵可正常投放,有效地避免了由于其中一个添加剂类型/品牌非预设类型/品牌而影响到其他添加剂的正常投放的现象,提升用户的使用体验。
进一步地,所述位置检测模块若检测到所述放置腔107内重新放置有储液模块101,且检测到储液模块101未放置在放置腔107内预设的标准位置,即所述添加剂盒的位置放置的不标准,可能放反了或者放歪了等。
所述控制单元则向投放模块103发出暂停投放指令,并向用户发出提示信息,所述位置检测模块在设定的时间内持续检测储液模块101的位置参数信息,若检测到储液模块101放置的位置已调整至预设的标准位置,则控制投放模块103解锁。
通过上述设计,有效地避免由于用户将添加剂盒的位置放置的不标准,而造成投放模块103无法正常抽吸添加剂盒内的添加剂而造成添加剂投放设备无法正常投放的现象。
在另一种实施方式中,所述添加剂的参数信息还包括储液模块101内添加剂的余量信息,所述添加剂投放设备上设置有用于检测储液模块101内添加剂余量的余量检测模块。所述余量检测模块可以为设置在添加剂盒内的液位传感器,或者探针式传感器,或者如图22和图23所示,所述余量检测模块为设置在添加剂投放设备的投放管路上的流量传感器,通过获得添加剂的输出流量信息来推断储液模块101内添加剂的余量信息。
或者,在另一种方案中,所述余量检测模块为设置在添加剂投放设备上用于计量投放模块103累计抽吸次数的的计数器,优选地,所述投放模块103采用定频泵抽吸储液模块101的添加剂,通过判断计数器计量到的定频泵抽吸的动作次数,即可推断出储液模块101内添加剂的余量信息。
或者,在另一种方案中,所述余量检测模块也可以为设置在添加剂投放设备上用于计量投放模块103累计工作时间的计时器,所述投放模块103同样采用定频泵抽吸储液模块101的添加剂,通过判断计数器计量到的定频泵的累计工作时间,即可推断出储液模块101内添加剂的余量信息。在投放的过程中,若所述余量检测模块检测到储液模块101内添加剂已用尽,控制单元则控制投放模块103锁定,并向用户发出报警提示,提示用户及时更换储液模块101,避免出现储液模块101为空,而用户却不知道添加剂投放设备却仍继续执行投放指令,出现空投放的现象。
在另一种实施方式中,所述添加剂的参数信息还包括储液模块101内添加剂的浓度信息,所述控制单元还可以根据识别模块105识别到的不同放置腔107内储液模块101的添加剂的浓度信息,来控制储液模块101内添加剂的投放量。
通过上述设计有效地避免了因更换添加剂盒后添加剂的浓度信息不同而造成添加剂的投放量不能满足实际所需,不能够实现精准投放,影响衣物的清洁效果。
例如,若检测到新更换的添加剂盒内添加剂的浓度要大于原添加剂盒内添加剂的浓度,则在投放时可控制相应的减少添加剂投放量,保证衣物的清洁效果的同时,避免浪费的现象。若检测到新更换的添加剂盒内添加剂的浓度要小于原添加剂盒内添加剂的浓度,则在投放时可控制相应的增加添加剂的投放量,实现精准投放,确保衣物的清洁效果。
在另一种实施方式中,所述添加剂投放设备具有多个用于放置储液模块101的放置腔107,多个储液模块101随机放置于不同的放置腔107内,即不限制每个放置腔107内放置的添加剂盒的类型,每个放置腔107内放置的添加剂盒的类型不固定。
所述添加剂的参数信息包括储液模块101的品牌信息和类型信息,所述控制单元根据识别模块105反馈的储液模块101的品牌信息来控制投放模块103是否解锁,并根据识别模块105反馈的不同放置腔107内添加剂的类型信息,来控制不同放置腔107内添加剂的投放时序。当识别模块105识别到新更换的添加剂盒的添加剂的类型与原添加剂盒内的添加剂的类型不同,则调整添加剂盒的投放时序,确保能够实现准确投放,避免出现误投的现象。
本实施方式还提供了一种上述任一所述的投放控制方法的添加剂投放设备,所述添加剂投放设备安装在衣物处理设备外部;或者,所述添加剂投放设备与衣物处理设备为相互独立的两套设备;所述衣物处理设备与自来水接头之间连接有进水管路,所述添加剂投放设备设置在所述进水管路上。
本实例中添加剂投放设备为外置的添加剂投放设备,所述添加剂投放设备设置在自来水接头和衣物处理设备的进水阀之间连接的进水管路上,所述添加剂投放设备的投放管路与进水管路连通。所述投放管路两端分别连通添加剂盒与进水管路,投放管路上设置投放模块103,如投放泵或者文丘里管,用于向进水管路中投放衣物添加剂。
使用时,将进水管路的进水端与自来水接头连接,进水管路的出水端连接至衣物处理设备的进水阀。衣物处理设备进水时,衣物处理设备的进水阀打开,自来水接头的出水经过进水管路,投放模块103将添加剂盒中的衣物添加剂投放至进水管路中,使添加剂随着进水管路中的自来水一同进入衣物处理设备中。
由于外置添加剂投放设备的添加剂盒本身造价不高,作为商家而言,如果只是一次性销售完本产品没有附加值的话,利润太低,如果能让用户持续回购指定的品牌的添加剂盒,提升自身收益的同时,还能够解决由于用户自行更换其他品牌的添加剂盒或者添加其他品牌的添加剂,造成投放设备的投放精度相差太大或者投放口堵塞的问题,又提高了用户的使用体验,是一个双赢的结果。
本实施例中,所述添加剂投放设备与衣物处理设备分别具有独立的控制系统,且所述添加剂投放设备设置在自来水接头和衣物处理设备的进水阀之间的进水管路上,所述的衣物处理设备包括但不限于波轮洗衣机、滚筒洗衣机和洗干一体机。
在一种方案中,所述添加剂投放设备可以安装在衣物处理设备外部,即所述添加剂投放设备安装在衣物处理设备上,且位于衣物处理设备的外部,例如所述添加剂投放设备可以固定安装在衣物处理设备机壳的外侧壁上。
或者,在另一种方案中,所述添加剂投放设备与衣物处理设备为相互独立的两套设备,添加剂投放设备与衣物处理设备之间无装配连接关系,为两套相互独立的设备,这样所述添加剂投放设备设置的位置相对不受限制,只要能够实现所述添加剂投放设备与洗衣机和自来水接头之间的进水管路连通,可随着进水管路的进水向洗衣机内投放添加剂即可。
实施例六
本实施例是对实施例五中添加剂盒上的识别芯片的具体结构、识别原理以及设置方式,以及对如何解决用户在不更换添加剂盒的情况私自添加其他品牌的添加剂的问题进行详细介绍。
如图15至图21所示,本实施中提供的添加剂投放设备的投放控制方法,所述添加剂投放设备的储液模块101为一次性的添加剂盒或者一次性的添加剂袋,如一次性的洗涤剂盒/柔顺剂盒/消毒剂盒或者一次性的洗涤剂袋/柔顺剂袋/消毒剂袋。实施例五中所述的识别芯片为设置在添加剂盒或者添加剂袋上的电子标签,所述电子标签中可以写入包括添加剂的类型、品牌、浓度、粘稠度、成分质量、规格容量、生产时间、保质期等添加剂的参数信息等相关添加剂的参数信息。
优选地,如图20和图21所示,本实施例中所述的储液模块101为墨盒式的添加剂盒,所述电子标签为贴在储液模块101外壁/内壁的NFC/RFID标签106。所述添加剂投放设备还包括用于分析读取所述NFC/RFID标签106的识别模块105,所述识别模块105可通过识别所述NFC/RFID标签106来获得储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息,并反馈至添加剂投放设备的控制单元,所述控制单元为与投放模块103连接的主控板,所述主控板可根据接收到的反馈信息来控制添加剂投放设备的投放模块103锁定或解锁。在检测到储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息不符合预设的需求时,所述主控板则控制所述投放模块103锁定,禁止投放模块103向衣物处理设备内投放添加剂。
本实施例中,所述投放模块103可以为投放泵或者文丘里管,所述添加剂投放设备的主控板可控制打开/关闭投放泵或文丘里管。例如,在一种方案中,所述主控板与投放泵或者文丘里管之间可以设置控制开关,所述主控板在判断到储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息不符合预设的需求时,则控制所述控制开关断开,使得所述投放泵或者文丘里管处于锁定状态,不能够投放添加剂;在判断到储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息符合预设的需求,则控制所述控制开关接通,使得所述投放泵或者文丘里管处于解锁状态,可以正常执行投放指令。
或者在另一种方案中,也可以在投放泵或者文丘里管上设置自锁机构,所述主控板在判断到储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息不符合预设的需求时,则控制所述自锁机构将所述投放泵或者文丘里管锁定,使得所述投放模块103处于锁定状态,不能够投放添加剂;在判断到储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息符合预设的需求时,则控制所述自锁机构将投放泵或者文丘里管解锁,使得所述投放泵或者文丘里管可以正常执行投放指令。
进一步地,如图20所示,所述识别模块105包括NFC/RFID模块以及与NFC/RFID模块连接的NFC/RFID 天线,所述NFC/RFID模块可通过所述NFC/RFID天线与所述NFC/RFID标签106进行通信识别,所述NFC/RFID模块内具可通信识别所述NFC/RFID标签106的NFC读写器//RFID读写器。
如图17所示,在位置检测模块检测到有更换储液模块101时,所述NFC/RFID模块若未识别到新更换的储液模块101上有NFC/RFID标签106,或者识别到储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息是非指定的品牌的,则控制所述添加剂投放设备的投放模块103锁定。避免由于用户自行将储液模块101更换为其他品牌的储液模块101,而添加剂投放设备未能识别出来,造成因为不同品牌的添加剂浓度、粘稠度、储液模块101型号尺寸等不同,导致的添加剂投放设备的投放精度相差太大或者投放口堵塞等其它不可控的问题,影响用户的使用体验,或者缩短添加剂投放设备的使用寿命。
进一步地,所述添加剂投放设备的主控板在控制所述投放模块103锁定的同时还会向用户发出提示信息,提示用户及时更换所述储液模块101,例如可以通过语音或者灯光闪烁等方式向用户发出提示信息。待所述NFC/RFID模块识别到储液模块101上的NFC/RFID标签106为指定的品牌的时,所述主控板则会控制所述投放模块103解锁。
进一步地,在所述位置检测模块若检测到所述放置腔107内重新放置有储液模块101时,则控制所述识别模块105重新识别储液模块101上的电子标签:
若所述识别模块105识别到所述储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息为指定的品牌,所述主控板则控制所述投放模块103解锁,控制所述投放模块103正常执行投放指令;
若所述识别模块105未识别到NFC/RFID标签106的信息,或者识别到的储液模块101上NFC/RFID标签106的添加剂的参数信息是非指定的品牌,所述主控板则控制所述投放模块103保持锁定状态。
通过上述设计方案,一方面避免了添加剂投放设备空投放的现象,保证了添加剂投放设备的安全运行,另一方面也避免了由于用户自行更换其他品牌的储液模块101,造成因为不同品牌的添加剂浓度、粘稠度、储液模块101型号尺寸等不同,导致添加剂投放设备的投放精度相差太大或者投放口堵塞等其它不可控的问题,影响用户的使用体验。
进一步地,所述添加剂投放设备还包括与所述主控板通讯连接的服务器,所述服务器可以为云端服务器或者也可以设置在添加剂投放设备内的服务器或者也可以为衣物处理设备的服务器。
所述NFC/RFID标签106具有唯一性,不同储液模块101上的NFC/RFID标签106可以通过识别模块105一对多读取和写入数据,所述服务器内存储有所有使用过的储液模块101上的NFC/RFID标签106的历史数据信息,即所述识别模块105每次识别后的NFC/RFID标签106的数据信息都会上传至服务器进行存储。
如图18所示,在所述位置检测模块检测到更换储液模块101时,所述识别模块105会重新识别储液模块101上的NFC/RFID标签106信息,并且所述识别模块105会将读取到的新更换的储液模块101上的NFC/RFID标签106的数据信息传输至服务器与历史数据信息进行匹配判断;
若判断到当前储液模块101上的NFC/RFID标签106的数据信息与历史数据信息相匹配,则推断出该储液模块101为之前使用过的,则控制投放模块103保持锁定状态;若判断到当前储液模块101上的NFC/RFID标签106的数据信息与历史数据信息不匹配,且判断到所述储液模块101的添加剂的参数信息为指定的品牌,则控制所述投放模块103解锁。
在上述方案中,通过增设的与历史数据信息进行匹配的步骤,避免了用户在不更换储液模块101的情况下,私自将储液模块101拿出自行添加了非指定品牌的添加剂后,又重新放回使用,而添加剂投放设备未能识别出来,造成因为不同品牌的添加剂浓度、粘稠度等不同,导致的添加剂投放设备的投放精度相差太大或者投放口堵塞等问题。
进一步地,如图19所示,所述识别模块105在检测到更换的储液模块101为指定的品牌时,所述主控板则会在服务器内重新给投放模块103设定一个极限投放次数N0;在投放的过程中,若判断到所述投放模块103投放的次数已达到极限投放次数N0,则控制所述投放模块103锁定,并向用户发出添加剂已用尽,需换储液模块101的提示信息。
通过采用上述方案,在保证储液模块101内的添加剂能够被充分使用的同时,避免因用户中途随意添加不同品牌的添加剂,造成投放精度相差太大、堵塞投放口等问题,并且在锁定的同时还会向用户发出添加剂已用尽,需换储液模块101的提示信息,让用户能够及时更换储液模块101,避免影响后续的投放进程。
进一步地,本实施例中所述投放模块103为定量投放的活塞泵,所述极限投放次数N0为允许所述活塞泵抽吸新的储液模块101内的添加剂的极限抽吸动作次数;
在识别模块105识别到更换的储液模块101为指定的品牌后,所述主控板则会重新给所述活塞泵设定一个极限抽吸动作次数;
所述主控板在未接收到更换储液模块101的反馈信号的情况下,则控制所述活塞泵只允许动作N0次,其中N0可根据储液模块101的容量M、单次定量投放量m1确定,N0=M/m1。
当储液模块101插入到添加剂投放设备的放置腔107内时,添加剂投放设备会自动识别此储液模块101,并将此信息反馈给主控板,主控板处理信息并发送信号给控制添加剂投放的活塞泵,允许活塞泵动作且只允许动作N0次,在保证了精准投放的同时,又能够有效防止用户在不更换储液模块101的情况下,私自将储液模块101打开并更换添加别的品牌的添加剂的现象发生。
进一步地,所述NFC/RFID标签106内还存储有储液模块101内添加剂的类别和/或浓度信息;
所述储液模块101包括多个添加剂盒,所述添加剂投放设备内设置有多个用于放置所述添加剂盒的放置腔107,每个添加剂盒上均设置有NFC/RFID标签106。
所述添加剂投放设备的主控板还可根据识别模块105反馈的不同放置腔107内添加剂的类型,来控制不同放置腔107内添加剂的投放时序。所述主控板通过识别模块105识别新更换的添加剂盒上的NFC/RFID标签106,获得新更换的添加剂盒内添加剂的类型,并判断到新更换的添加剂的类型与原储液模块101内的添加剂的类型不同,则调整不同放置腔107内添加剂盒的投放时序,确保能够实现准确投放,避免出现误投的现象。
所述主控板通过识别模块105识别新更换的添加剂盒上的NFC/RFID标签106,获得新更换的添加剂盒内添加剂的浓度,所述添加剂投放设备的主控板根据储液模块101的添加剂的浓度信息,来控制添加剂的投放量。
如图20和图21所示,所述添加剂投放设备还包括集成在主控板上与所述识别模块105相互通信连接 的MCU模块,在所述添加剂投放设备上的添加剂盒放置腔107的周围安装有所述NFC/RFID天线,所述NFC/RFID天线可以覆盖到所有添加剂盒的放置区域,各个添加剂盒上分别贴有NFC/RFID标签106,当某一添加剂盒放置到放置腔107内时,NFC/RFID天线自动识别添加剂盒上的NFC/RFID标签106,并将识别信息通过NFC/RFID模块上传给MCU模块,MCU模块将信息进行处理,与信息库进行比对,判断此NFC/RFID标签106为洗涤剂还是柔顺剂还是消毒剂等,并由MCU模块控制此添加剂何时进行投放。
本实施例中提供的添加剂投放设备支持盲插功能,可以智能识别每个放置腔107内放置的是什么种类添加剂。例如:添加剂投放设备设置有三个放置腔107,分别是1号槽位、2号槽位、3号槽位,添加剂盒上所贴NFC/RFID标签106上记录的信息有种类、型号、液位、寿命、浓度、品牌、厂家等等。
例如当柔顺剂盒插入到2号槽位时,NFC/RFID模块通过NFC/RFID天线检测到2号槽位的NFC/RFID标签106,并将读取到的信息传输给MCU模块进行处理,MCU模块将2号槽位定义为柔顺剂槽位,当添加剂投放设备需要投放柔顺剂时,则控制2号槽位的投放泵(切换阀或者活塞泵)开始动作。如果此柔顺剂盒插入到1号槽位时,MCU模块便将1号槽位定义为柔顺剂槽位。无论添加剂盒安插到哪个安装槽都能进行智能识别与投放,当然,如果此添加剂盒为假冒伪劣产品,没有NFC/RFID标签,就没法被NFC/RFID天线识别,则控制投放泵锁定,不能进行使用,有效地杜绝了仿品入侵。
用户如果想知道目前几个添加剂盒的使用情况,只需将手机靠近此区域,所述添加剂投放设备内设置有另一与手机进行点对点通信的NFC/RFID天线和NFC/RFID模块,通过NFC/RFID模块与MCU模块进行信息交互,将读取的添加剂盒的种类、型号、液位、寿命、浓度、品牌、厂家等信息上传到手机APP上,用户可以轻松获取添加剂盒的所有信息,实现可视化管理。例如,当用户看到新放入的添加剂盒的品牌不是指定品牌的,也可以直接自行更换添加剂盒,无需通过添加剂投放设备提示来获知。
本实施例提供的添加剂投放设备不限于用户可以通过添加剂投放设备上的操作界面、手机APP界面来自定义不同放置腔107中所放置的添加剂类型,是选择一种还是选择多种。
实施例七
本实施例主要针对实施例五中的余量检测模块进行详细介绍,本实施例通过添加剂投放设备输出的添加剂的流量信息,来推断出添加剂投放设备内添加剂的余量参数信息。
具体地,所述余量检测模块为设置在储液模块101的出液口或投放管路上设置有流量检测机构,优选地,为了不影响储液模块101的结构,将所述流量检测机构设置在投放管路上,设置在投放管路上相比于设置在储液模块101的出液口,更便于流量检测机构的拆卸安装。或者在另一种方案中所述流量检测机构也可以设置在添加剂投放设备与衣物处理设备的进水阀之间的进水管路上。
如图21至图23所示,所述添加剂投放设备的控制单元根据流量检测机构检测到的储液模块101输出的添加剂的流量信息,推断出储液模块101内添加剂的余量信息。优选地,所述流量检测机构为设置在投放管路上的流量计,在投放模块103的工作模式以及外界水压分别恒定的情况下,可根据获取到的流量计的输出转速推断出储液模块101内的添加剂的余量信息。
更优选地,本实施例中采用的流量计为叶轮流量计,添加剂盒内的添加剂在流经所述流量计时,叶轮在流体的作用下会进行旋转,流速越大转动的越快,通过检测流量计叶轮的输出转速即推断出添加剂盒内 添加剂的余量信息。
在上述方案中,当所述投放模块103采用投放泵进行抽吸时,需在保证在投放泵的工作功率以及外界水压恒定的情况下,通过检测流量计叶轮的输出转速即推断出添加剂盒内添加剂的余量信息。当所述投放模块103采用文丘里管进行抽吸时,需在保证文丘里管内的压力、流体流速以及外界水压恒定的情况下,通过检测流量计叶轮的输出转速即推断出添加剂盒内添加剂的余量信息。
在投放模块103的工作模式以及外界水压分别恒定的情况下,空气或者水等粘度较小的流体吸入到投放泵或者文丘里管时流速较快,相应的流量计的转速较大;当粘度较高的液体添加剂吸入到投放泵或者文丘里管中时流速较慢,相应的流量计的转速较小
由于液体添加剂在吸取的过程中相比于吸取空气流速相对较慢,通过对比流量计的输出转速即可判断添加剂是否吸取完毕,添加剂盒内是否存在大量空气,从而在流量计的输出转速较大时,则可推断出添加剂的余量较少,进而提醒用户及时更换新的添加剂盒。
具体地,在投放的过程中,在投放模块103的工作模式和外界水压分别恒定的情况下,可实时检测或者每间隔一定时间检测一次流量计的输出转速,若检测到流量计的输出转速大于设定转速,则可推断出添加剂的余量不足,提示用户。当检测到流量计的输出转速大于设定转速时,则表示添加剂盒内的空置空间较大,推断出添加剂盒内的添加剂余量较少,及时提醒用户,让用户有更充足的时间准备更换添加剂盒。
进一步地,所述添加剂投放设备的服务器内存储有不同剩余量的洗涤剂所对应流量计的转速范围的余量匹配表,通过判断流量计的转速所在的转速范围,即可推断出添加剂盒内添加剂的余量。
在一种方案中,如图23所示,在投放的过程中,保证投放模块103的工作模式和水压分别恒定,当检测到流量计的输出转速N大于设定转速N1,则推断出添加剂的余量不足提示用户,并比对输出转速N与余量匹配表,推断出添加剂的剩余量;
并判断所述剩余量是否大于等于待投放量,若判断所述剩余量大于或等于本次投放的待投放量,则可以控制投放模块103正常投放,并提示用户更换添加剂盒,保证剩余添加剂的量能足够完成本次投放,既不影响洗衣机的洗衣进程,确保了洗衣机的工作效率,又能够及时提示用户更换添加剂盒,避免在下次投放时出现添加剂不足的现象。
上述方案中,在流量计的输出转速N大于设定转速N1,即添加剂的剩余量小于设定值时,就开始判断剩余量是否足够完成本次投放量,确保在不同投放量需求的情况下,添加剂盒内均能够有足够的添加剂,避免出现添加剂余量不够本次投放的现象。
若判断所述剩余量小于本次投放的待投放量,则并向用户发出报警提示,向用户发出紧急添加信号,让用户能够及时更换添加剂盒,避免出现添加剂盒内添加剂的剩余量不够完成本次投放影响洗涤效果的现象。
优选地,在判断到剩余量小于本次投放的待投放量,在向用户发出报警提示的同时,控制投放模块103锁定,暂停投放,待用户更换添加剂盒,则控制投放模块103恢复正常工作,继续执行投放指令。通过采用上述方案,避免出现添加剂盒为空置状态,但添加剂投放设备仍在执行投放指令,造成投放量不足、空置投放的现象。
若判断到添加剂盒内添加剂的剩余量刚好等于本次投放的待投放量,则控制投放模块103正常工作,并且提示用户更换添加剂盒,用户可以在洗衣进程中或者在洗衣结束后更换添加剂盒,既不影响洗衣进程,也避免了出现添加剂盒内添加剂为空的现象。
在另一种情况中,如图22所示,设定流量计的转速为N2时添加剂盒为空置状态,在投放的过程中,若检测到流量计的输出转速N大于设定转速N2,其中N2>N1,则推断出添加剂已用尽,添加剂盒为空置状态,则控制投放模块103锁定,暂停投放,并向用户发出报警提示,提示用户更换新的添加剂盒。
在位置检测模块检测到用户更换了新的添加剂盒,设定流量计的转速为N0时添加剂盒为满载状态,且判断到流量计的输出转速大于设定转速N0时,则推断出添加剂盒内添加剂为满载状态,则控制投放模块103解锁,恢复正常投放。或者在判断到流量计的输出转速大于设定转速N3时,则控制制投放模块103解锁,恢复正常投放,其中N2>N1>N3>N0,所述N0、N1、N2、N3均为经过大量实验得出的理论数据。
本实施方式提供的添加剂投放设备的检测方法,在保证投放模块103的工作模式和外界水压分别恒定的情况下,通过获取投放管路上设置的流量计的输出转速,即可推断出储液模块101内添加剂的剩余量,当推断出添加剂的余量不足时,能够及时提示用户更换添加剂盒,避免出现用户因为不知道洗涤剂剩余量的情况下仍然进行洗衣服,最终造成衣服洗不干净的现象,该检测方法简单高效,且无需改变添加剂盒的结构,更便于生产制造,成本更低,用户的使用体验更好。
需要说明的是本发明中实施例中所述添加剂的参数信息包括添加剂自身属性参数信息、使用信息、品牌信息等。其中,所述添加剂自身属性参数信息包括洗涤剂的类别、浓度、成分、粘稠度等属性参数信息;所述洗涤剂的使用信息包括使用要求、使用剂量、容量、生产日期及使用期限以及使用注意事项等使用信息;所述洗涤剂的品牌信息包括成产厂家、成产品牌、厂家售后信息、厂家服务信息等品牌信息。
以上所述仅是本发明的较佳实施例而已,并非对本发明作任何形式上的限制,虽然本发明已以较佳实施例揭露如上,然而并非用以限定本发明,任何熟悉本专利的技术人员在不脱离本发明技术方案范围内,当可利用上述提示的技术内容作出些许更动或修饰为等同变化的等效实施例,但凡是未脱离本发明技术方案的内容,依据本发明的技术实质对以上实施例所作的任何简单修改、等同变化与修饰,均仍属于本发明方案的范围内。
