Best mode for carrying out the invention
[036] Clothes treatment equipment capable of drying clothes is classified into two categories based on the airflow methods to provide high temperature air (eg hot air) to the clothes: a type treatment equipment exhaust and circulation treatment equipment (eg condensation type).
[037] In the circulation treatment equipment, the air in an accommodation space having clothes received within it is circulated and the moisture removed (eg dehumidified) from the exhausted air of the accommodation space and the dehumidified air is then heated. The heated air is fed back to the accommodation space.
[038] In extractor type treatment equipment, heated air is supplied to the accommodation space and the air discharged from the accommodation space is discharged outside the clothing treatment equipment without being recirculated.
[039] It may be desirable to remove foreign substances such as lint from the exhausted air from the accommodation space provided in conventional laundry treatment equipment having a drying function. In the case of circulation treatment equipment, after dehumidifying the exhausted air in the accommodation space, the circulation treatment equipment heats the air using a heat exchange device and feeds the heated air into the ventilation space. accommodation. If foreign substances are not removed before the air is heated, foreign substances may accumulate in the heat exchange device. Therefore, the efficiency of the heat exchange of the laundry treatment equipment may be reduced.
[040] In the case of extractor type laundry treatment equipment, if the air is discharged from the accommodation space without being filtered, lint or dust contained in the discharged air can be supplied to an internal space equipped with laundry treatment equipment.
[041] Therefore, it may be beneficial to filter the air discharged from an accommodation space from a clothing treatment equipment capable of drying clothes. Consequently, a filter is provided in a laundry treatment equipment to filter foreign substances from the exhaust air of the accommodation space. A mechanism may be provided in the laundry equipment that allows the filter to be cleaned automatically, thereby reducing the need for the user to check the condition of the filter before or after the laundry equipment is used.
[042] Figure 1 illustrates an example of clothing treatment equipment that is an objective of a control method in accordance with the present disclosure. Referring to FIG. 1, a structure of the laundry equipment is described. The laundry equipment includes a filter set configured to filter foreign substances and a foreign substance removal unit configured to remove remaining foreign substances in the filter set.
[043] A laundry treatment equipment 100 in accordance with the present disclosure includes a cabinet 1 configured to define an exterior appearance of the aforementioned and an accommodation space 2 provided in the cabinet to accommodate the clothing within the said.
[044] In the case of a laundry treatment equipment having only the drying function, the accommodation space 2 may be provided as a drum 21 configured to form a predetermined space capable of receiving drying objects within the said. The drum may be cylindrical in shape with an open front and an open rear.
[045] A front support piece 25 is provided on a front portion of the drum to support the open front and a rear support piece 27 is provided on a rear portion of the drum to support the open rear of the drum.
[046] The front support piece 25 has an opening 251 for loading or unloading clothes inside or outside the drum. Opening 251 is opened and closed by a door 3 rotationally coupled to the cabinet.
[047] Door 3 may include a glass of door 31 extended towards opening 251. The glass of door 31 may allow a user to observe the interior of the drum while the laundry equipment is operated and another possibility is that clothing moved to the door during drum rotation can be guided towards the inside of the drum.
[048] The rear support part 27 includes a supply port 271 configured to allow external air to pass into the drum and the supply port 271 is connected to a supply duct 43 which will be described later.
[049] The drum 21 supported by both the front support piece and the rear support piece can be rotated by a drum motor 213 and a belt 215. A lifter 211 can be provided on an inner circumferential surface of the drum 21 to shake objects drying efficiently and smoothly.
[050] The laundry treatment equipment may also include a duct 4 and an air supply unit 5 to supply air (unheated air) or heated air to the clothes received in the drum.
[051] The duct may consist of a discharge duct 41 configured to remove the internal air from the drum, which is the accommodation space, and a supply duct 43 configured to supply external air to the drum 21. The discharge duct 41 includes a suction hole 411 to allow the exhaust air to pass through the drum 21 and the supply duct 43 is connected to the supply port 271 of the rear support piece, in communication with the discharge duct. Because of this, the air that has passed through the air supply unit 5 can be supplied to the drum.
[052] In the case of circulation treatment equipment, discharge duct 41 and supply duct 43 may be connected to each other only to form a single path. The air supply unit 5 may include a fan 55, a condensing piece configured to dehumidify the air moving along the duct 4 and a heating piece configured to heat the dehumidified air.
[053] The fan 55 can be rotated by the drum motor 213, as an air circulation device configured to suck the internal air from the drum into the discharge duct 41.
[054] Once the fan 55 is rotated, the internal air in the duct 4 can move to the drum 21. When the internal air in the duct is sucked into the drum, the internal air in the drum can be exhausted through the hole suction pipe 411 to be removed into the discharge duct 41.
[055] The air drawn into the discharge duct can be conveyed to the supply duct 43 by means of an air supply unit 5 and can then be dehumidified and heated in this process, so that the clothes loaded in the drum 21 can be dried.
[056] In the meantime, foreign substances such as lint may be generated while the clothes are dried in the circulation type treatment equipment and foreign substances discharged from the clothes are circulated along the duct 4. Because of this, if the substances foreign particles are not filtered out of the exhausted air in the drum, foreign substances may stick to a surface of the heat exchange device including the condensing part and the heating part. This could result in deteriorating drying efficiency of the laundry equipment.
[057] As a result, the clothing treatment equipment, as per the present disclosure, also includes a filter set 6 configured to filter foreign substances from the air that circulates along the duct 4, not only to prevent drying efficiency from being impaired, but also to prevent a flow rate from decreasing because of foreign substances.
[058] The laundry treatment equipment may also include a foreign substance compression piece 7 configured to compress and store foreign substances filtered by the filter assembly 6.
[059] The filter set 6 can be detachably supplied in the suction hole 411 of the discharge duct 41. In this case, the user will be able to attach or uncouple the filter set 6 to the or the treatment equipment after open door 3.
[060] Here, the foreign substance compression part 7 can be provided in the filter set 6 or it can be detachable in relation to the filter set 6.
[061] When the foreign matter compression piece 7 is located in the filter assembly 6, the filter assembly 6 may have a structure shown in figure 2. When the foreign substance compression piece is detachable from the filter assembly, the filter set may have a structure shown in figure 3.
[062] By extension, when the foreign matter compression part is detachable from the filter assembly, the foreign substance compression part 7 and filter assembly 6 may be located inside the discharge duct 41 as shown in FIG. 1 or the foreign substance compression part may be separable by means of an inlet 15 provided on the front surface of the cabinet 1 as shown in FIG. 4.
[063] In the latter case, the foreign substance compression part 7 may be provided outside the discharge duct 41, in communication with a lower portion of the filter assembly. In the previous case, the user will be able to open door 3 and will be able to decouple the filter assembly 7 from the discharge duct 41. After that, the user will be able to separate the foreign substance compression part 7 from the filter assembly and the foreign substances stored in the compression piece of foreign substance may be removed.
[064] This implementation presents the filter set and the foreign substance compression part described above provided in the circulation type laundry treatment equipment having the drying function. However, the filter assembly and foreign substance compression part described above may be applicable to the laundry treatment equipment having washing and drying functions or the exhaust type laundry treatment equipment having only drying function.
[065] In other words, the filter set 6 and the foreign substance compression piece 7 described above can be applied to the exhaust treatment equipment (which is used to dry clothes).
[066] The exhaust treatment equipment heats the outside air and supplies the heated space to the accommodation space (eg drum 21) and the exhaust treatment equipment takes the air out of the accommodation space 21 out of the garment treatment equipment.
[067] As a result, in the case of exhaust treatment equipment, the discharge duct 41 and supply duct 43 are separated from each other. The air supply unit 5 is supplied in the supply duct 43.
[068] Figure 5 illustrates the circulation treatment equipment capable of washing and drying clothes.
[069] A 23 bowl is provided in the cabinet. The bowl 23 can be configured to hold the drum 21 and washing water inside it. Because of this, the accommodation space 2 is an element including the bowl 23 and the drum 21.
[070] An opening for tub 231 is provided in the tub for loading and unloading clothes in the accommodation space. An opening of the drum 217 is provided on the drum to communicate with the opening of the bowl 231.
[071] Depending on this structure, a supply hose 18 configured to supply wash water to the tub and a drain hose 19 configured to drain the wash water retained in the tub may also be provided. The supply hose 18 may be in communication with the tank via a detergent box 17.
[072] Bowl 23 and cabinet 1 may be sealed together by means of a joint 233. Discharge duct 41 may be in communication with a front surface of bowl 23 and supply pipe 4 3 may be in communication with a rear surface of the bowl 23.
[073] Agui, supply duct 43 could be located to supply air through the front surface of the tank, different from the figure. 5.
[074] The filter set 6 is detachably provided in a suction hole 411 of the discharge duct 41.
[075] Drum motor 213, configured to rotate drum 21, can rotate fan 55 and drum 21 simultaneously as shown in figure 1, or it can rotate only drum as shown in figure 5.
[076] In the previous case, a control pulley can be provided on the drum motor and a controlled pulley connected to the control pulley by means of a belt can be provided on a rear surface of the bowl. Here, the driven pulley is fixed to a rear surface of the drum by means of an axle.
[077] Although not shown in the drawings, the supply duct and the discharge duct are separated in the case of an exhaust-type laundry treatment equipment with washing and drying functions. Detailed description of the exhaust treatment equipment will not be repeated.
[078] As follows, the structure of the filter assembly 6 will be described with reference to FIG. two.
[079] The filter set 6 may include a housing 61 detachably provided in the suction hole 411 of the discharge duct, an inflow surface 63 provided in communication with the air inlet 411 to draw air into the housing 61, a filter unit 65 configured to filter foreign substances such as lint brought into the housing, and a foreign substance removal unit 67 configured to take the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit to the foreign substance compression part 7.
[080] The housing 61 includes a first housing 611 and a second housing 613 detachable from each other. The first housing 611 and the second housing 613 are coupled to each other by means of a hinge 615. The inflow surface 63 can be provided in the first housing 611 or the second housing 613. Figure 2 illustrates the inflow surface 63 provided in the first 611 housing.
[081] The shape of the inflow surface 63 may correspond to the shape of the suction hole 411 provided in the discharge duct and the inflow surface may include a plurality of inflow holes 631 to guide the air drawn through the suction hole 411 into housing 61.
[082] Housing 61 may also include a handle 619 configured to enable the discharge duct and housing to be decoupled smoothly.
[083] Filter unit 65 is configured to remove foreign substances from the exhausted air in the accommodation space and to supply air to duct 4 thereafter. The filter unit 65 may be provided on at least one surface of the housing 61.
[084] For example, filter unit 65 may be provided in a mesh form to remove foreign substances from the air brought into the housing 61 and to allow air having foreign substances to be removed from the said to move along. of duct 4.
[085] In addition, filter set 6 may be a pair of filters provided at the two opposite ends of the inflow surface 63 to increase filtering capacity (eg, maximize the amount of air passing through the filter set).
[086] That is, the filter unit may be formed by a first filter 651 provided in the first housing 611 and a second filter 653 provided in the second housing 613.
[087] The foreign substance removal unit 67 may be rotationally supplied in housing 61 to take the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit 65 to a predetermined portion (eg, a storage space, such as the part compression of foreign substance 7) inside the housing to compress them.
[088] For this, the foreign substance removal unit may include a brush 671 provided in contact with the filter unit 65, a brush structure 673 for attaching the brush to said and a brush axis 675 configured to transmit an energy received from a brush motor (eg motor 69, see FIGS. 1, 4 and 5) for brush frame 673.
[089] Brush axis 675 may be inserted into brush frame 673, passing filter unit 65 and may include gear driven by brush 679 located outside the housing.
[090] The gear driven by brush 679 can be rotated by engaging with a gear drive for brush 693 (see FIGS. 1 and 4) provided on brush motor 69. Brush motor 69 may be located outside the discharge duct 41 and the brush drive gear 693 may be located inside the discharge duct 41 and engage with a shaft 691 (see figure 1) of the brush motor.
[091] As a result, when the user inserts the filter assembly 6 into the suction hole 411 of the discharge duct 41, the brush drive gear and the brush driven gear can engage.
[092] Figure 1 shows the energy transmission structure including only the brush drive gear and the brush driven gear. A connecting gear for connecting the brush drive gear and the brush driven gear to each other can also be provided in the discharge duct 41.
[093] The connecting gear can be used because the rotational force must be transmitted to the foreign substance removal unit if the brush motor is located in such a way as to make the direct connection between the brush drive gear and the driven gear difficult by the brush.
[094] In addition, figure 1 shows that the brush drive gear and the brush driven gear are provided along a straight line. Alternatively, the brush drive gear and the brush driven gear can be spaced a predetermined distance from the direction of insertion of the filter set by a predetermined range of angles.
[095] For example, axis 691 of brush motor 69 and brush axis 675 cannot be located in a straight line.
[096] The filter set 6 is inserted into the discharge duct 41 through the suction hole 411. On this occasion, if the gear driven by brush 679 and the gear driven by brush 693 are located in a straight line, the teeth of the 693 brush drive gear may fail to engage the teeth of the 679 brush driven gear precisely.
[097] If the filter assembly is inserted into the discharge duct even with the teeth of the brush drive gear not precisely engaged with the teeth of the brush driven gear, the teeth may be damaged and the structure described above can reduce this problem.
[098] The foreign substance removal unit is rotated reciprocally along clockwise / counterclockwise within a predetermined range of angles. As a result, brush 671 takes the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit 65 to a storage space 7 located in the housing, being rotated reciprocally within the housing.
[099] When brush 671 is rotated reciprocally within the predetermined range of angles, the foreign matter remaining in filter unit 65 may be compressed in the storage space 7 provided in the housing.
[0100] For example, when the angle range of the reciprocal rotational movement of brush 671 is programmed to be overlaid by a storage area in storage space 7, the brush may not only take the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit to the storage space, but also compress them into storage space 7.
[0101] Figure 3 illustrates a detachable structure of the storage space 7 of the filter assembly 6. In this case, a communication hole 617 in communication with the storage space 7 and a coupling / uncoupling part 619 having the storage space 7 coupled to said can also be provided in housing 61 of the filter assembly.
[0102] Here, the storage space 7 also includes a connection part 712 which mates with the coupling / uncoupling part 619 and a storage part 713 provided under the connection part 712 for storing foreign substances within said.
[0103] The connection piece 712 includes an opening 711 in communication with the communication hole 617.
[0104] The 671 reciprocal rotation angle range of the brush is programmed to be overlapped by a rotational brush area and a storage part storage area.
[0105] Figure 6 illustrates an exemplary control method for the laundry equipment described above. Here, the laundry treatment equipment having the above structure is an example for carrying out this control method which will be described below. An objective of the control method as per the present disclosure cannot be limited to the clothing treatment equipment including all the components described above.
[0106] For example, the object of control of the present disclosure could be any clothing treatment equipment, such clothing treatment equipment with the accommodation space configured to receive clothing within the said, the air supply unit configured to supply air (heated air or unheated air) to the accommodation space, the filter unit configured to filter foreign substances from the exhausted air of the accommodation space and the foreign substance removal unit configured to remove the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit.
[0107] Here, the foreign substance removal unit may have the structure that allows the foreign substance removal unit to remove foreign substances from the filter unit by rotating reciprocally along the inside of the housing instead of the housing structure. rotation relative to the filter unit.
[0108] The control method for the laundry treatment equipment as per the present disclosure includes a start step of the S10 cycle configured to start a drying cycle and a cleaning step of the S13 filter unit performed at least once before the drying cycle is ended.
[0109] The drying cycle is a cycle for drying clothes stored in the accommodation space using air supplied to the accommodation space 2. The cleaning step of the filter unit includes removing the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit 65 using the foreign substance removal unit 67.
[0110] The drying cycle can be configured to supply air to the accommodation space and rotate drum 21 at the same time.
[0111] The cleaning step of the filter unit S13 is provided between a start time (eg, a specified instance or a point in time) and a time to close the drying cycle. This is because it is desirable to remove the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit whenever the laundry treatment equipment 100 is put into operation, to improve the drying efficiency of the laundry treatment equipment and to reduce the inconvenience that the user has to remove foreign substances whenever the laundry treatment equipment is used.
[0112] In addition, the cleaning step of the filter unit S13 can be provided to start a predetermined time before the drying cycle ends. For this, the control method according to the present disclosure may also include a step of determining the closing time Sll configured to determine a closing time of the drying cycle after the start step of the cycle S10.
[0113] In this case, the control method according to the present disclosure periodically identifies whether a present moment is a predetermined moment before a closing moment of the drying cycle S12 and it performs the cleaning step of the filter unit S13 when the present moment reaches a pre-configured point.
[0114] After that, the filter unit cleaning step may end S14 when the drying cycle is finished.
[0115] Here, the cleaning step of the filter unit can end before the step of closing the drying cycle or after the step of closing the drying cycle based on a pre-configured period of time (eg, one amount of time) of the filter unit cleaning step.
[0116] If the filter unit cleaning step ends before the drying cycle ends, the time between the filter unit closing time and the drying cycle closing time can be configured as the cleaning period. time leaving only a small amount of foreign substances. If so, it is unnecessary to clean the filter unit when the laundry equipment is used the next time (eg when the next drying cycle starts).
[0117] In addition, the control method as per this disclosure identifies whether a previous drying cycle (eg, a drying cycle is carried out before the present drying cycle) ends abnormally P1 and it may also include a first cleaning step of filter unit P2 based on the result of the identification step.
[0118] The "Abnormal termination (closure) of the previous drying cycle" may occur when the previous drying cycle ends without performing the filter unit cleaning step (S13, referred to as "second filter unit cleaning step" "for convenience of explanation).
[0119] That is, the second cleaning step of the filter unit S13 is not carried out while the drying cycle is forced to end by user selection or is not carried out when the drying cycle ends for other reasons, for example, lack energy and the like.
[0120] To identify whether the previous drying cycle ends abnormally or not Pl, a control unit provided in the laundry equipment stores records of implementation of the second cleaning step of the filter unit S13 whenever a second cleaning step cleaning of the filter unit is terminated.
[0121] In this case, the step to identify whether the previous drying cycle ended abnormally or not P1 checks the implementation records of the second cleaning step of a filter unit stored in the control unit, when the power is inserted treatment equipment.
[0122] If two or more time performances of the second filter unit cleaning step are configured in the drying cycle, the identification step P1 can identify whether all the second filter unit cleaning steps configured in the previous drying cycle are implemented.
[0123] In this case, the first cleaning step of the filter unit P2 cannot be performed when all the second cleaning steps of the filter unit configured in the previous drying cycle are implemented.
[0124] The control method according to the present disclosure can start the cleaning step of the filter unit S13 at a point in time from a point in the predetermined time after the drying cycle starts, not at the point in time of the point at the predetermined time before the drying cycle ends.
[0125] In this case, the control method according to the present disclosure requires a step to identify if a predetermined period of time passes after the start of the drying cycle instead of determining the closing time of the drying cycle Sll and the identification of the present moment S12.
[0126] Figure 7 illustrates another implementation of the control method in accordance with this disclosure. This implementation shows that at least two of the cleaning steps of the filter unit are implemented between the start and end of the drying cycle.
[0127] For example, the control method according to this implementation may include a step of starting the drying cycle S20, a step of determining a closing moment of the drying cycle S21, a step to identify if a period of time predetermined time passes after the start of the drying cycle S22, a first step of cleaning the filter unit S23, a step to identify if a present moment is a start of cleaning located at a predetermined time before the closing time of the drying cycle S24, and a second cleaning step of the filter unit S25 for cleaning the filter unit when the present moment is the moment of cleaning start. After the second cleaning step of the filter unit S25, the cleaning step of the filter unit may end S26 when the drying cycle is finished.
[0128] Characteristics and effects of the steps may be similar to the characteristics and effects of the steps described above according to the implementation above in reference to FIG. 6 and detailed description of it will be repeated.
[0129] Furthermore, although not shown in FIG. 7, a step may also be provided to identify whether a previous drying cycle has ended abnormally or not and the cleaning step of the filter unit carried out based on the result of the identification step, before the step of starting the drying cycle. drying S20.
[0130] According to figure 8, the starting time of the cleaning step of the filter unit is determined by a drying level of the clothes received in the accommodation space.
[0131] The control method for the laundry treatment equipment as per this implementation has a one-step feature to identify whether drying the clothes accommodated in the accommodation space is a predetermined drying or above S31, which is carried out after a step of starting the drying cycle S30.
[0132] When the drying (or drying level) of the clothes is a reference drying (or drying level) or above, the cleaning step of the filter unit S32 starts. After the cleaning step of the filter unit S32, the cleaning step of the filter unit may end S33 and the drying cycle may end S34.
[0133] Furthermore, the drying of the clothes accommodated in the accommodation space can be measured by a drying measurement unit provided in the laundry treatment equipment 100.
[0134] The drying measurement unit may be a humidity measurement device (S, see figure 1) configured to measure the humidity of the exhaust air of the accommodation space.
[0135] Figure 12 is a graph of the change in humidity in relation to the air exhausted from the accommodation space during the drying cycle (eg, a graph of the actual values converted from the humidity of the air exhausted from the accommodation space by the measuring device. humidity).
[0136] A heat exchange rate is relatively low at an early stage of the drying cycle, even when heated air is supplied to accommodation space 2 by the air supply unit 5. As a result, there may be a small change in the humidity of the exhausted air of the accommodation space (period "A").
[0137] As the clothes are damp in the initial period of the drying cycle, it is not easy to exchange heat between the heated air and the clothes, even when the heated air is brought into the accommodation space continuously.
[0138] However, a humidity value of the exhaust air of the accommodation space increases while the drying cycle is carried out and the increasing humidity value changes dramatically when the drying cycle reaches a specific moment C.
[0139] Here, the air exhausted outside the accommodation space after the heated heat with the clothes may include foreign substances such as lint. The amount of foreign substances exhausted from the accommodation space may increase as the drying of the clothes increases.
[0140] As a result, fewer foreign substances are discharged outside the accommodation space in period "A" and more foreign substances are discarded in period "B" where the heat exchange between clothes and heated air is actively carried out.
[0141] An implementation shown in figure 8 has a main feature that drying efficiency is reduced from deterioration by cleaning the filter unit in the period when many foreign substances are discharged from the accommodation space.
[0142] A step of comparing a drying level of clothes with a reference drying level S31 may be provided. In the step of comparing the drying level of the clothes with the reference drying level (S31), humidity data (eg current values corresponding to humidity) measured from the exhausted air of the accommodation space by the humidity measuring device (S ) and the measured humidity data are compared with the reference humidity data by the control unit. Alternatively, a rate of change in humidity for the exhaust air of the accommodation space can be compared with the reference rate of change in humidity.
[0143] In the previous case, the reference humidity data can be stored in the control unit as the type of data that can be directly compared with the humidity data measured by the humidity measuring device. The control unit compares the reference humidity data with the measured humidity data and it can determine whether the cleaning time of the filter unit is achieved based on the result of the comparison.
[0144] The reference humidity data can be configured to be the moisture data measured at a time when a water content rate found in the clothing (eg, water weight / (clothing weight + weight of water)) is 30% to 40%.
[0145] The reference humidity data can be configured to be the humidity data measured at a time when 50% of the drying time period has passed.
[0146] These indices correspond to point "C" shown in figure 12.
[0147] When the cleaning time of the filter unit is determined based on the result of the comparison between the rate of change of humidity and the reference rate of change of humidity, it is normal for data on a rate of change of humidity to be drastically changing at point "C" in the drying cycle, as identified in figure 12.
[0148] That is, the control unit receives humidity data measured by the humidity measuring device and computes the rate of change of humidity per unit time. After that, the control unit compared the calculated rate of change with the reference rate of change and it determines the cleaning time of the filter unit based on the result of the comparison (eg, it is normal for the rate of change of humidity in period "A" it is close to "zero" and the rate of change of humidity is a positive value (+) for a period of time predetermined in point "C").
[0149] The step of determining an S31 drying for clothes accommodated in the accommodation space can be performed based on the result of the comparison between a water content rate found in the clothes and a water content reference rate.
[0150] For example, a measuring device configured to measure the rate of water content found in clothing is provided in the clothing treatment equipment 100 and the measuring device measures the rate of water content found in clothing within the space of accommodation periodically. The measured water content rate is compared to the water content reference rate (approximately 30% to 40%) and the step of determining a drying can be carried out based on the result of the comparison.
[0151] The measuring device for measuring the rate of water content may be an electrode sensor provided in the accommodation space.
[0152] That is, when a pair of electrodes provided on the electrode sensor is configured to come into contact with the clothing during drum rotation, the control unit can compare the actual values or voltage values perceived by the pair of electrodes with a pre-configured reference value according to the water content rate. Then the control unit can determine the rate of the water content contained in the clothes.
[0153] Alternatively, the drying identification step for clothes accommodated in accommodation space S31 can be performed by identifying whether the exhaust air temperature of the accommodation space is a reference temperature or above.
[0154] The drying level increases as the drying cycle closes. When the drying level is rising, the air supplied by the air supply unit is exhausted to the discharge duct with little heat exchange with the clothes inside the accommodation space. Because of this, the drying of the clothes can be determined by measuring the temperature of the exhausted air in the accommodation space.
[0155] As a result, if a temperature measurement unit to measure the exhaust air temperature of the accommodation space is provided in the laundry equipment and the control unit provided to compare the data measured by the temperature measurement unit with a reference value, the step of determining a drying can be carried out using the temperature measurement unit.
[0156] Figure 9 illustrates an exemplary control method for setting the performance time of the cleaning step of the filter unit S13, S25 and S32 described above based on at least one of the number of clothes loaded in the accommodation space (ex .: amount of laundry), type of laundry (eg laundry type), a desired drying set in the drying cycle and a desired drying time set in the drying cycle.
[0157] For example, the cleaning step of the filter unit S46 as per this implementation is performed before the moment of closing the drying cycle and the performance time period of the cleaning step of the filter unit as this implementation is programmed S44 based on at least one of the laundry amount, laundry type, desired drying set in the drying cycle and the desired drying time set in the drying cycle.
[0158] Firstly, the performance time characteristic of the cleaning step of the filter unit programmed based on the amount of laundry will be described. This characteristic is considering that the amount of foreign substances exhausted from the accommodation space during the drying cycle may increase while the amount of clothing received in the accommodation space is increasing.
[0159] For this, the control method according to this implementation also includes a step for determining the amount of laundry S42 and a setting step for the performance time period S44 for the cleaning step of the filter unit S46, which are provided before carrying out the cleaning step of the filter unit S46.
[0160] When a laundry detection device supplied in the laundry treatment equipment transmits laundry quantity data to the control unit, the laundry quantity determination step S42 compares the laundry quantity data transmitted with a reference value and determines the amount of clothes stored in the accommodation space or a level of amount of clothes (eg, data for a period with the highest value and the lowest value for the amount of laundry data).
[0161] The laundry detection device can be of various types, for example, a laundry detection device in the accommodation space based on the rotating load of the drum motor 213, a device that comes into contact with contact with the clothes accommodated in the accommodation space to determine the amount of clothes based on the frequency of contact with the clothes, and the like.
[0162] The setting step of the performance time period S44 of the cleaning step of the filter unit may select a performance time period corresponding to the amount of laundry measured by the control unit from a period data table. performance time based on the amount of clothing.
[0163] In this case, the performance time data table may be a data table where the performance time periods for corresponding amounts of laundry are stored. Experimental data having longer periods of performance time if the amount of clothing is increasing and short periods of performance time if the amount of clothing is decreasing.
[0164] When the performance time of the filter unit cleaning step is programmed based on the amount of laundry, the control method according to this implementation determines whether the cleaning time of the filter unit is reached S45.
[0165] The step for determining whether the present moment is the cleaning time of the filter unit S45 can be carried out by a determination whether the present moment is the predetermined moment before the moment of closing the drying cycle, if the moment present is the predetermined time after the start of the drying cycle or if the drying level is the reference drying level or above.
[0166] When the present moment is determined to be the cleaning time of the filter unit, the control unit operates the foreign substance removal unit for the performance time period configured in the performance time period configuration step S44, and the foreign matter removal unit removes the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit S46.
[0167] Also, the amount of foreign substances exhausted from the accommodation space may be differentiated based on drying conditions such as type of laundry (a type of laundry), a desired drying time and a drying time (a desired drying time) , in addition to the amount of clothes.
[0168] For example, clothing may include a variety of types of clothing including cotton clothing, synthetic fabric clothing, clothing sensitive to heat-sensitive fabric such as lingerie, wool clothing and functional clothing such as sports.
[0169] The amount of foreign substances, such as lint, exhausted during the drying cycle can be differentiated based on the materials of the clothes. According to the results of the experiments, it has been proven that the greatest amount of foreign substances can be exhausted from cotton clothes.
[0170] The desired drying is a dry state of the clothes when the drying cycle ends and can be one of the elements used to determine the amount of foreign substances exhausted from the accommodation space during the drying cycle.
[0171] Various levels of desired drying can be programmed by a manufacturer of laundry equipment, for example, strong, normal and weak, for ironing and the like. Here, when the desired drying level is for ironing, drying has a predetermined amount of water (or moisture) remaining in the ironing after the drying cycle is over.
[0172] When the desired drying is "strong", the rate of water content found in the clothes may be the lowest at the end of the drying cycle. When the desired drying is the "pass" level, the water content rate may be the highest at the end of the drying cycle.
[0173] As described above, the amount of foreign substances exhausted from the accommodation space increases as it passes after the drying cycle. This indicates that the amount of foreign substances increases while the rate of water content is decreasing.
[0174] Because of this, if the desired drying is considered in the time period of the performance of the cleaning step of the filter unit after the desired drying set in the drying cycle is determined, is it expected that the efficiency of sθCcicjθiπ rπθlhoi θ,
[0175] The drying time period configured in the drying cycle (eg, the desired drying time period) may be one of the elements used to determine the amount of foreign substances exhausted from the accommodation space. If the desired drying time period set in the drying cycle is long, the time to exhaust foreign substances can be relatively long.
[0176] Because of this, if the filter unit cleaning step performance time period is programmed based on the type of laundry loaded in the accommodation space, desired drying set in the drying cycle and desired drying time period , drying efficiency is expected to be improved.
[0177] To consider at least one type of laundry, desired drying and desired drying time in the performance period of the filter unit cleaning step, the control method as per this implementation also includes a programming step of drying state S43 to identify a drying state (eg type of laundry, desired drying and / or the desired drying time period)
[0178] In the drying state programming step 843, the user will be able to directly program the drying state by means of a programming piece provided in the laundry treatment equipment.
[0179] That is, the drying state programming step S43 may include a laundry type programming step, a desired drying programming step and a desired drying time programming step, which are performed before of the configuration step of the performance time period S44.
[0180] Here, in case you consider some of the types of laundry, desired drying and desired drying time period in the performance time period of the cleaning step of the dθ filter unit, a step to program a corresponding drying state can be provided before the drying state programming step S43.
[0181] In addition, the drying state programming step S43 receives the drying conditions of a drying progress selected by the user before the drying cycle start step S41.
[0182] The drying progress is a state of implementation of the drying cycle. The temperature of the air that will be supplied to the accommodation space during the drying cycle, the amount of air and the conditions for closing the drying cycle are stored in the drying progress. The user will be able to select the drying progress displayed on a display unit 11 to implement the drying cycle.
[0183] In addition, information on the amount of laundry that is desired from a corresponding progress, information on the type of laundry (eg information on desired laundry), information on a desired drying of the laundry, can be stored in the drying progress information corresponding information and information on a desired drying time period of the corresponding progress.
[0184] As a result, the control method according to this implementation also includes a step of selecting the drying progress S41 provided before the start step of cycle S42. The drying state programming step S43 sets the desired laundry, desired drying and the desired drying time period, which are stored in the drying progress selected in the drying progress selection step, such as drying conditions.
[0185] Once the drying conditions are configured in the steps described above, the performance period of the filter unit cleaning step is programmed based on the drying conditions S44. When the filter unit cleaning time comes S45 after this, the filter unit is cleaned S46 and S48 for the time period S47 configured in the configuration step of the performance time period S44. As soon as the filter cleaning ends S48, the drying cycle can end S49.
[0186] Here, the step of setting the performance time performed based on the amount of laundry as described above is explained separately from the step of setting the performance time performed based on the drying state. However, this implementation may show that the configuration step of the performance time period S44 is carried out after the laundry quantity determination step S42 and the drying state programming step S43 have been carried out (the data configuration step , S42 + S43.
[0187] If at least two or more quantities of laundry, laundry types, desired drying and desired drying time period are considered in the performance time period of the filter unit cleaning step, the setting period of the filter unit performance time S44 can configure the sum of the values gained from the multiplication of each reference time period configured in the corresponding state by each weight configured under the corresponding conditions, such as the cleaning time period of the filter unit.
[0188] To apply this feature, a storage device or the control unit provided in the laundry equipment may include a plurality of data from the reference time period (for example, 10, 20 and 30 sec., See figure 13) configured based on laundry quantities (A1, A2 and A3, see figure 13), a plurality of reference time period data (for example, 10, 30 and 50 sec.) Configured based on laundry types classified based on the amount of lint generated (Bl, B2 and B3), a plurality of reference time period data (for example, 10, 15 and 20 sec.) configured based on the desired drying levels (Cl, C2 and C3) and a plurality of reference time period data (for example, 5, 10 and 15 see.) configured based on the desired drying time periods (Dl, D2 and D3)
[0189] In addition, the control unit or storage device may include a laundry quantity weight (w), a laundry type weight (x), a drying level weight (y) and a weight of drying time period (z) which are configured based on the point at which the amount of laundry, the type of laundry, the desired drying and the desired drying time period affect a number of foreign substances exhausted from the accommodation space.
[0190] In the case of setting the performance time period of the cleaning step of the filter unit based on the amount of laundry and the type of laundry, the setting time of the performance time period S44 configures the cleaning time period cleaning as the sum of a value obtained from multiplying the reference time period data configured based on the amount of laundry by the weight of laundry quantity and a value obtained from multiplying the reference time period data configured based on the type of clothing by the weight of the type of clothing.
[0191] In the case of setting the performance time period of the cleaning step of the filter unit S46 based on all laundry quantities, type of laundry, desired drying and desired drying time period, the setting step of the performance time period S44 configures the performance time period of the filter unit cleaning step as the sum of a value obtained by multiplying the reference time period data configured based on the amount of laundry by the weight of the amount of laundry laundry, a value obtained from multiplying the reference time period data configured based on the type of laundry by the weight of the type of laundry, a value from multiplying the reference time period data configured based on the desired drying time by the weight of the laundry. drying and a value obtained from multiplying the reference time period data configured based on the desired drying time period by the weight of the drying time period .
[0192] Figure 10 shows a feature that before the start of the drying cycle S52, the control method described above identifies whether cleaning of the filter unit is required or not S51, although foreign substances from the filter unit are always removed that the laundry equipment 100 is put into operation.
[0193] For example, a control method for the laundry equipment according to this implementation includes a step of detecting a quantity of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit S50, before the start step of the drying cycle S52.
[0194] The amount of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit 65 may be determined by a variety of devices and the devices may include an air quantity sensing device, an optical sensor or a temperature sensing device provided in the air conditioning equipment. laundry treatment 100.
[0195] If foreign substances remain in the filter unit, an amount of air passing through duct 4 will decrease. Because of this, the detection step of a quantity of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit S50 will be able to compare an amount of air measured by the air quantity detection device with a pre-configured reference quantity S51, before the start step. drying cycle S52.
[0196] Here, in the case of detecting the foreign substance S50 detection step by using the air quantity detection device, it is unnecessary to supply the heated air, different from the drying cycle. Because of this, the air supply unit can be controlled to supply unheated air in the step of detecting the amount of foreign substances.
[0197] If the amount of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit is large, the amount of transmitted light will be small. Because of this, a voltage value (or a current value) received by a light-receiving part is compared to a reference value and an amount of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit can then be expected. Here, the filter unit is located between the light-receiving part and a light-emitting part in contrast to the light-receiving part.
[0198] If the amount of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit is large, it may be difficult to circulate the air inside the duct and the pressure or temperature inside the duct may rise. Because of this, when a pressure or temperature measured by the pressure sensing device or temperature sensing device supplied in the duct is compared to the reference pressure or the reference temperature, then a quantity of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit may be determined.
[0199] When the quantity of foreign substances measured by the devices described above is less than a reference value which is a quantity of foreign substances requiring cleaning of the filter unit (or a reference value or less), the drying cycle begins S52. However, when the measured quantity of foreign substances is the reference value or greater (or greater than the reference value), the control method as per this implementation performs the first cleaning step of the S61 filter unit and the starting step drying cycle S52 is carried out after the first cleaning step of the filter unit S62 is closed.
[0200] The step of detecting the amount of foreign substance S50 and the first step of cleaning the filter unit S61 of the control method as per this implementation may reduce the deterioration of drying efficiency.
[0201] Once the drying cycle starts, a laundry determination step S53a, a drying state programming step S53b and a setting step for the performance time period of the second cleaning step of the washing unit filter S54 to configure a time period of the performance of a second cleaning time of a filter unit S56 can be performed. The detailed description of each step is given above and the detailed description is not repeated.
[0202] After that, the control method according to this implementation determines whether the present moment is a second moment of cleaning the filter unit S55 and it performs the second step of cleaning the filter unit S56 for a period of time S57 configured by configuration step of the performance time period of the second cleaning step of the filter unit S54, to finish cleaning the filter unit S58 and the drying cycle S59.
[0203] Figure 11 illustrates an exemplary method of controlling clothing treatment equipment in accordance with another implementation of the present disclosure. According to this implementation, the laundry equipment is controlled differently based on an automatic mode (hereinafter, an automatic mode) and a manual mode (hereinafter, a manual mode).
[0204] Automatic mode is a control mode configured to sequentially carry out a cleaning step for the filter unit and a drying cycle. Manual mode is a control mode configured only to clean the filter unit.
[0205] This implementation includes a step to identify which item in manual mode S90 and automatic mode S80 is selected S70.
[0206] When the manual mode is selected, the control method as per this implementation detects a quantity of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit S91 and compares the measured quantity of foreign substances with a pre-configured reference quantity value S92.
[0207] The step to detect a quantity of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit and to compare the measured quantity with the reference value is identical to the description mentioned in figure 10, and the detailed description of that is not repeated.
[0208] When the quantity of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit is the pre-configured reference value or greater, the control method as per this implementation performs a cleaning step of the filter unit S93 for the control of the removal unit foreign substance to remove the remaining foreign substances in the filter unit. As a result, according to this implementation, the user can only clean the filter unit at any time, regardless of the drying cycle.
[0209] In addition, if the user wishes to carry out the drying cycle after cleaning the filter unit, manual mode S90 may include a step to identify the performance of the drying cycle S94 to identify whether the drying cycle is carried out.
[0210] When the quantity of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit is less than the reference value, manual mode S90 performs a notification step S95 to display on the display piece 11 provided in the laundry equipment that the step of cleaning of the filter unit does not need to be performed. Thereafter, the step of identifying the completion of the drying cycle S94 can be carried out.
[0211] When the automatic mode is selected in the identification step of the S70 mode selection, the control method as per this implementation performs a first step of cleaning the filter unit S83 before the start of the drying cycle S72.
[0212] The first cleaning step of the filter unit S83 can be performed by identifying whether the previous drying cycle ends abnormally S81 as shown in figure 11, or if the amount of foreign substances remaining in the filter unit is a value of reference or greater as shown in figure 10.
[0213] After that, the control method according to this implementation may carry out a step of selecting the drying progress S71, a step of starting the drying cycle S72, a step of determining the amount of laundry S73a, a step of programming the drying state S73b and a setting step of the performance time period of the second cleaning step of the filter unit S74.
[0214] When a start time for the second cleaning step of the filter unit arrives (eg, a time located in a predetermined period of time after the drying cycle starts, a moment located in a predetermined time period -determined before the drying cycle ends and / or a localized moment when the drying level is a reference drying level or higher) S75, the control method as per this implementation performs the second cleaning step of the filter unit S76 and S78 for predetermined performance time period S77 and it completes drying cycle S79 after this.
[0215] It will be apparent to those with experience in the technique that various modifications and variations can be made in this disclosure without departing from the essence or scope of the disclosure. Thus, it is intended that the present disclosure includes the modifications and variations of this disclosure as long as they fall within the scope of the attached claims and their equivalents.
