If tap water is used to wash clothes for a long time, the clothes will fade and become hard, and lose their original gloss, especially some clothes with brighter colors will fade more seriously. Therefore, an embodiment of the present invention provides a washing and care control method for a clothing processing device to solve the technical problem of clothing fading, thereby improving the user experience.

This washing and care control method can be carried out in the washing stage by adjusting the ratio of tap water and soft water to make the hardness value of the washing water meet the requirements of the clothing material. It can also be carried out in the rinsing stage by adjusting the ratio of tap water and soft water by adding water to make the hardness value of the rinsing water meet the requirements of the clothing material.

The specific implementation mode of the present invention is described in detail below with reference to the embodiments:

Example 1

Embodiment 1 of the present invention takes the washing stage as an example and provides an example of a washing and care control method for a clothing processing device.

As shown in Figure 1, the washing care control method includes: obtaining the turbidity value of the washing water and comparing it with a preset turbidity value. If the turbidity value of the washing water is greater than or equal to the preset turbidity value, detecting the current hardness value of the washing water and obtaining the type of clothing material, and determining whether to adjust the hardness of the washing water based on the current hardness value of the washing water and the type of clothing material.

Furthermore, if it is determined to adjust the hardness of the washing water, the reference ratio of tap water and soft water for the washing water is further determined according to the current hardness value of the washing water and the type of clothing material. If we only add tap water during the washing stage, it means we need to determine whether to add soft water and how much to add.

There are many ways to detect the turbidity value of washing water, such as turbidity sensors and image sensors. For example, during the washing process, the turbidity of washing water is detected by a turbidity sensor, or by an infrared detection device, to obtain the color depth of the washing water, thereby judging the color fastness of the laundry. First, turn on the turbidity sensor, detect the turbidity value of the washing water in the drum as A, and record the preset turbidity value as x. If A≥x, it is considered that the laundry being washed is dark clothing, and soft water needs to be added during the washing process, which can slow down the visual fading of the laundry due to the precipitation of calcium and magnesium ions in hard water on the laundry. Then, turn on the water hardness sensor, detect the hardness value of the washing water as B, and record the preset hardness value as S1. By judging the size of B and S1, and combining the material of the laundry (wool, silk or regular), the ratio of tap water and soft water in the washing water is determined. Optionally, in an implementation of the present embodiment, as shown in FIG2 , the washing and care control method further includes: if the turbidity value A of the washing water is less than the preset turbidity value x, it is considered that the clothes being washed are light-colored clothes, and the current washing water can be directly used for washing.

Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, determining a reference ratio of tap water and soft water for mixing the washing water according to the current hardness value of the washing water and the type of clothing material includes:

comparing the current hardness value of the washing water with a preset hardness value;

Further determining the type of clothing material according to the comparison result;

Determining a reference ratio of tap water to soft water for washing water according to the type of clothing material;

Among them, under the condition of the same hardness of washing water, when the clothes to be washed and cared for are of the first category of material, the benchmark ratio is the first benchmark ratio, and when the clothes to be washed and cared for are of the second category of material, the benchmark ratio is the second benchmark ratio; the first category of material is wool and silk clothes, and the second category of material is non-wool and non-silk clothes; the higher the hardness of washing water, the smaller the benchmark ratio of tap water and soft water in the washing water for each category of material.

Specifically, according to the current hardness value of the washing water and the type of material of the clothes, determining the reference ratio of tap water and soft water for mixing the washing water includes:

When the hardness value of the washing water is equal to the preset hardness value,

If the laundry is made of the first type of material, the ratio of the tap water to the soft water is the first reference ratio; if the laundry is made of the second type of material, the ratio of the tap water to the soft water is the second reference ratio;

When the hardness value of the washing water is less than the preset hardness value,

If the laundry is made of the first type of material, the ratio of the tap water to the soft water is an increase of the first compensation value by the proportion of the tap water in the first reference ratio; if the laundry is made of the second type of material, the ratio of the tap water to the soft water is an increase of the second compensation value by the proportion of the tap water in the second reference ratio;

When the hardness value of the washing water is greater than the preset hardness value,

If the laundry is made of the first type of material, the ratio of the tap water to the soft water is to reduce the proportion of the tap water in the first reference ratio by a first compensation value; if the laundry is made of the second type of material, the ratio of the tap water to the soft water is to reduce the proportion of the tap water in the second reference ratio by a second compensation value;

The first compensation value is smaller than the second compensation value.

Optionally, the first compensation value is 10% and the second compensation value is 20%.

Optionally, in one implementation of this embodiment, according to the current hardness value B of the washing water and the preset hardness value S1, the ratio of tap water to soft water in the washing water is adjusted based on the reference ratio, wherein, when the washing and care clothes belong to the first type of material (for example, wool and silk materials), the reference ratio is the first reference ratio, and when the washing and care clothes belong to the second type of material (for example, conventional materials), the reference ratio is the second reference ratio. In this way, different ratios are used for clothes of different materials, which can reduce the phenomenon of color deterioration and hardening of wool and silk clothes after multiple washings.

Optionally, in one implementation of the present embodiment, when the current hardness value B of the first type of washing water is equal to the preset hardness value S1, the ratio of tap water to soft water satisfies the reference ratio; when B is less than S1, the proportion of tap water in the reference ratio is increased; when B is greater than S1, the proportion of tap water in the reference ratio is reduced.

Optionally, in one implementation of this embodiment, the washing and care control method includes: when increasing the proportion of tap water in the benchmark ratio and decreasing the proportion of tap water in the benchmark ratio, the adjustment range of the proportion of tap water when the washed and cared clothes belong to the first category of material is smaller than the adjustment range of the proportion of tap water when the washed and cared clothes belong to the second category of material.

Optionally, in an implementation of the present embodiment, when the current hardness value B of the washing water is equal to the preset hardness value S1, if the laundry is made of the first type of material, the ratio of tap water to soft water is a first reference ratio (for example, T1: T2), and if the laundry is made of the second type of material, the ratio of tap water to soft water is a second reference ratio (for example, T3: T4); when B is less than S1, it is necessary to increase the proportion of tap water in the reference ratio, and if the laundry is made of the first type of material, the ratio of tap water to soft water is 1.1T1: T2, and if the laundry is made of the second type of material, the ratio of tap water to soft water is 1.2T3: T4; when B is greater than S1, it is necessary to reduce the proportion of tap water in the reference ratio, and if the laundry is made of the first type of material, the ratio of tap water to soft water is 0.9T1: T2, and if the laundry is made of the second type of material, the ratio of tap water to soft water is 0.8T3: T4.

Optionally, in an implementation of this embodiment, the hardness of tap water is greater than that of soft water, and a water softening device is provided in the water supply pipeline of the soft water, and the water softening device is provided with an ion resin for softening the tap water to obtain soft water.
