Definitions
- the present invention relates to an on-line system including a garment processing apparatus capable of detecting or calculating contamination and wrinkles of clothes.
- the clothing processing apparatus is a concept including a clothing apparatus for refreshing clothes, a washing machine for washing clothes, and a dryer for drying clothes.
- a typical example of the clothing device is the brand name “Trom Styler”.
- a user prefferably selects a suitable course or option among courses or options provided by the clothing processing apparatus by directly determining the material or contamination level of the clothing when using such a clothing processing apparatus. For example, when the material of the garment is a material that is vulnerable to temperature or friction, the user selects a course and an option with relatively low temperature and low driving force among the courses and options provided by the garment processing apparatus.
- the clothing processing device provides an optimal course or option to prevent contamination of clothing while preventing damage to clothing. Even though, there was a limit that the user could not utilize it.
- a washing machine has appeared that recognizes the material of clothing and determines a course suitable for it.
- the washing machine does not directly detect the material of the garment, but a condition is required that the user directly inputs an identification body providing material information of the garment into the washing machine. That is, when the user does not input the identification object, or when the user misunderstands the material of the actual clothing and inputs another identification object, there is a limitation that a suitable course or option is still not recommended.
- such a washing machine has a limitation in that it is not possible to recommend a course or option suitable for the degree of contamination or wrinkles of clothing.
- Korean Patent Publication No. 10-2016-0039872 a washing machine that can grasp the fiber type of clothing through an optical sensor and the degree of contamination through a turbidity sensor has also appeared.
- Such a washing machine can determine the type of clothing and recommend it by directly determining the course and options corresponding to the type of clothing, and increase or decrease the number of washing or rinsing by directly grasping the degree of contamination in the rinsing water. In this way, even if the user does not accurately recognize the material or the degree of contamination of the clothing or the course or option corresponding thereto, the user can determine and recommend the optimal course or option recommended by the clothing processing apparatus. There was.
- such a washing machine has a limitation in that it is not possible to acquire additional information in addition to the material of the clothing with an optical sensor.
