Referring to FIG. 3 to FIG. 5 , the laundry care machine provided by the embodiment of the present application includes a cabinet 100 and a heat pump system 200 , the cabinet 100 includes a housing 110 , an inner tank 120 and an equipment compartment 130 , and the inner tank 120 and the equipment compartment 130 is located within housing 110 .

The equipment compartment 130 includes a plurality of mutually isolated sub-equipment compartments, and the heat pump system 200 includes a compressor 210, a condensing assembly 220 and an evaporation assembly 230, and the compressor 210, the condensing assembly 220 and the evaporation assembly 230 are located in different sub-equipment compartments respectively. , the condensing assembly 220 and the evaporating assembly 230 are both communicated with the compressor 210, the condensing assembly 220 is communicated with the evaporating assembly 230, and the sub-equipment compartment corresponding to the evaporating assembly 230 has an evaporative air inlet 231 and an evaporative air outlet 232 arranged at intervals, and the evaporative air inlet 231 and the evaporation air outlet 232 are both communicated with the inner tank 110, the sub-equipment warehouse corresponding to the condensation assembly 220 has a condensation air inlet 221 and a condensation air outlet 222 arranged at intervals, and the condensation air inlet 221 and the condensation air outlet 222 are both connected to the outer side of the housing 100. Connected.

In one embodiment, the main structure of the clothes care machine is mainly composed of a casing 110 , an inner tank 120 and an equipment compartment 130 and other parts. The housing 110 is used to support the inner tank 120 and the equipment compartment 130, the inner tank 120 is used to hang clothes, and the equipment compartment 130 can accommodate the heat pump system 200. In order to facilitate hanging clothes and save airborne, the inner tank 120 can be located in the equipment compartment 130 above. One side wall of the cabinet body 100 is provided with an openable and closable cabinet door, so as to be convenient for taking and placing clothes in the inner tank 120 .

The clothes are dried by the heat pump system 200 . In one embodiment, the heat pump system 200 may include a compressor 210, a condensing assembly 220, and an evaporating assembly 230. Both the condensing assembly 220 and the evaporating assembly 230 communicate with the compressor 210 through pipes, and the condensing assembly 220 communicates with the evaporating assembly 230 through pipes. After the clothes in the inner tank 120 are ironed with steam at about 100° C., a low-temperature damp-heat gas (30° C.-50° C.) is formed inside the inner tank 120 , and the humid-heat gas is condensed on the heat pump system 200 . The gas is thus discharged into the inner tank 120 to dry the clothes in the inner tank 120 at a low temperature.

In an embodiment, the specific process of condensation of the hot and humid gas on the heat pump system 200 is as follows: under the driving of the compressor 210, the refrigerant in the vapor state flows in the pipeline, from the compressor 210 to the condensing component 220, The refrigerant is simultaneously subjected to the high pressure of the compressor 210, and the refrigerant changes from a vapor state to a liquid state and releases heat. The heat exchange is performed through the condensing assembly 220, and the condensing assembly 220 generates heat. The refrigerant in liquid state flows into the evaporating assembly 230, and the refrigerant in liquid state evaporates in the evaporating assembly 230. The process of changing from liquid to gas is an endothermic process, and the temperature of the evaporating assembly 230 decreases, resulting in a lower temperature around the evaporating assembly 230. When the hot and humid gas passes through the evaporation component 230, the water vapor contained in the gas will condense into water to form dry gas, and the dry gas will be discharged into the inner tank 120 to dry the clothes in the inner tank 120 at low temperature (wherein, The flow direction of the gas in the evaporation assembly 230 is the direction of the solid arrow in FIG. 4 ).

The hot and humid gas enters the sub-equipment compartment corresponding to the evaporation component 230 through the evaporation air inlet 231 , and the dried low-temperature gas enters the inner tank 110 through the evaporation air outlet 232 . The sub-equipment compartment corresponding to the condensing assembly 220 has a condensing air inlet 221 and a condensing air outlet 222 arranged at intervals. The low-temperature gas around the clothes care machine passes through, and the condensing air inlet 221 enters the sub-equipment compartment corresponding to the condensing assembly 220 and takes away the condensing assembly 220. The heat in the corresponding sub-equipment compartment is discharged out of the casing 100 through the condensation air outlet 222, thereby cooling the condensation component 220 (wherein, the flow direction of the gas in the condensation component 220 is the direction of the dotted arrow in FIG. 4).

The clothes in the gallbladder 120 are cared for, and the folds of the clothes are activated, stretched and smoothed through the penetration of water vapor.

S102 , starting the heat pump system 200 of the clothes care machine to pump the gas in the equipment compartment 130 into the inner tank 120 .

After the boiler 600 stops running, the biaxial driving member 300 and the compressor 210 start to operate successively. The biaxial driving member 300 drives the first wind wheel 234 and the second wind wheel 224 to rotate synchronously. 701 enters the first accommodating cavity of the first sub-equipment chamber 131, passes through the evaporator 233 in the first accommodating cavity and condenses on the surface of the evaporator 233, and the dried gas after the moisture is separated out passes through the first wind wheel 234, The heater 500 (when the temperature of the inner tank 120 is greater than or equal to the preset value, the heater 500 is not activated, and the dried gas after the moisture is separated out is then blown into the inner tank 120 through the first wind wheel 234 ) after heating and heating, the air outlet is released from the evaporation outlet. 232 is blown into the inner tank 120, thus, reciprocating circulation, gradually condenses the moisture in the inner tank 120 into water, which is discharged into the waste water tank 810 by the second water pump 820, and the heat generated by the condenser 223 is absorbed by the second water pump 820. The cold air sucked in by the wind wheel 224 from the condensation air inlet 221 is continuously taken away, and is blown out of the casing 110 through the condensation air outlet 222 .

S103. Detect the temperature of the gas in the inner tank 120 of the clothing care machine.

S104 , when the temperature is lower than the preset value, control the heater 500 of the clothes care machine to turn on, so as to heat the gas entering the inner tank 120 .

S105 , when the temperature of the gas in the inner tank 120 is greater than or equal to a preset value, control the heater 500 to turn off.

It should be noted that, S104 and S105 are concurrent steps, and there is no sequence, and S105 may be performed first, and then S104 may be performed.

The temperature control method of the clothing care machine provided by the embodiment of the present application can effectively compensate the temperature in the inner tank 120 by detecting the temperature of the gas in the inner tank 120 of the clothing care machine, so it can be used for clothes of different materials. The corresponding temperature adjustment can effectively reduce the damage caused by high-end fabric care and drying.

Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present application, but not to limit them; although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that: The technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments can still be modified, or some or all of the technical features thereof can be equivalently replaced; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application. scope.
