도 18은 일 실시예에 따른 의류관리기가 선택된 의류관리코스에 대응되는 알고리즘을 선택하기 위한 일 예를 도시한 순서도이다.18 is a flowchart illustrating an example for selecting an algorithm corresponding to a selected clothing management course by a clothing manager according to an embodiment.
도 18을 참조하면, 제어부(200)는 제1 사용자 입력을 수신한 후 제3 사용자 입력을 수신한 것에 기초하여 제1 의류관리코스를 시작하도록 의류관리기(1)를 제어할 수 있다(3000).Referring to FIG. 18 , after receiving the first user input, the controller 200 may control the clothing manager 1 to start the first clothing management course based on the reception of the third user input ( 3000 ). .
제1 의류관리코스에 대해 살균 행정이 추가되어 있지 않은 경우(3100의 아니오), 제어부(200)는 제1 의류관리코스에 대응되는 제1 알고리즘에 기초하여 의류관리행정을 진행하도록 의류관리기(1)의 각 구성(예: 열교환장치(50), 적어도 하나의 팬(52(82)), 자외선 램프(65) 및/또는 스팀발생장치(70))을 제어할 수 있다(3200).When the sterilization process is not added to the first clothes management course (No in 3100), the controller 200 performs the clothes management operation based on the first algorithm corresponding to the first clothes management course (No in 3100). ) (eg, the heat exchange device 50 , at least one fan 52 ( 82 ), the ultraviolet lamp 65 and/or the steam generator 70 ) can be controlled ( 3200 ).
복수의 의류관리코스 각각에 대응되는 의류관리행정의 알고리즘은 메모리(220)에 저장되어 있을 수 있다.The algorithm of the clothing management administration corresponding to each of the plurality of clothing management courses may be stored in the memory 220 .
그러나, 제1 의류관리코스에 살균 행정이 추가된 경우, 추가적인 살균 행정 진행에 따라 기존에 설정되어 있던 의류관리행정의 알고리즘이 변경될 필요성이 있다.However, when the sterilization process is added to the first clothes management course, it is necessary to change the previously set algorithm of the clothes management process according to the additional sterilization process.
이에 따라, 살균 행정이 추가된 경우 복수의 의류관리코스 각각에 대응되는 알고리즘은 메모리(220)에 저장되어 있을 수 있다.Accordingly, when the sterilization process is added, an algorithm corresponding to each of the plurality of clothing management courses may be stored in the memory 220 .
예를 들어, "교복 코스"만을 진행하는 경우 "교복 코스"에 대응되는 행정의 알고리즘과, "교복 코스"에 살균 행정을 추가한 경우 "교복 코스"에 대응되는 행정의 알고리즘은 서로 상이할 수 있다.For example, when only “School Uniform Course” is conducted, the algorithm of administration corresponding to “School Uniform Course” may be different from the algorithm of administration corresponding to “School Uniform Course” when sterilization is added to “School Uniform Course”. have.
또한, 제1 의류관리코스에 대응되는 의류의 종류, 재질 또는 의류관리의 유형에 따라 추가되는 살균 행정의 알고리즘 또한 변경될 필요성이 있다.In addition, the algorithm of the sterilization process added according to the type, material, or type of clothing management corresponding to the first clothing management course also needs to be changed.
이에 따라, 복수의 의류관리코스 각각에 대응되는 살균 행정의 알고리즘은 메모리(220)에 저장되어 있을 수 있다.Accordingly, the algorithm of the sterilization process corresponding to each of the plurality of clothing management courses may be stored in the memory 220 .
예를 들어, "교복 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가된 경우 살균 행정의 알고리즘과, "데님 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가된 경우 살균 행정의 알고리즘은 서로 상이할 수 있다.For example, the algorithm of the sterilization stroke when the sterilization stroke is added to the “school uniform course” and the algorithm of the sterilization stroke when the sterilization stroke is added to the “denim course” may be different from each other.
다양한 실시예에 따라, 제1 의류관리코스에 대해 살균 행정이 추가되어 있는 경우(3100의 예), 제어부(200)는 제1 의류관리코스에 대응되는 제1 알고리즘 대신, 제1 알고리즘과 상이한 제2 알고리즘에 기초하여 의류관리행정을 진행하도록 의류관리기(1)의 각 구성(예: 열교환장치(50), 적어도 하나의 팬(52(82)), 자외선 램프(65) 및/또는 스팀발생장치(70))을 제어할 수 있다(3300).According to various embodiments, when the sterilization process is added to the first clothing management course (Yes in 3100), the controller 200 may control the first algorithm different from the first algorithm instead of the first algorithm corresponding to the first clothing management course. 2 Each component (eg, heat exchange device 50, at least one fan 52 (82)), ultraviolet lamp 65 and/or steam generating device of the clothes manager 1 to proceed with the clothes management operation based on the algorithm (70)) can be controlled (3300).
이 때, 제2 알고리즘은 제1 알고리즘과 매칭되어 메모리(220)에 저장될 수 있다.In this case, the second algorithm may be stored in the memory 220 by matching the first algorithm.
또한, 제1 의류관리코스에 대해 살균 행정이 추가되어 있는 경우(3100의 예), 제어부(200)는 제1 의류관리코스에 대응되는 살균 행정을 진행하도록 의류관리기(1)의 각 구성(예: 열교환장치(50), 적어도 하나의 팬(52(82)), 자외선 램프(65) 및/또는 스팀발생장치(70))을 제어할 수 있다(3350).In addition, when the sterilization process is added to the first clothes management course (Yes in 3100), the controller 200 performs the sterilization process corresponding to the first clothes management course for each component (eg, in the clothes manager 1). : It is possible to control the heat exchange device 50, at least one fan 52 (82), the ultraviolet lamp 65 and/or the steam generator 70) (3350).
도 19는 의류관리코스에 살균 행정이 추가된 경우와 추가되지 않은 경우 각각에 대응되는 코스 사양의 일 예이다.19 is an example of course specifications corresponding to a case in which a sterilization process is added and a case in which the sterilization process is not added to the clothing management course.
도 19를 참조하면, "교복 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가되지 않은 경우의 의류관리행정의 사양(예: 소요 시간, 동작 종류 등)과 "교복 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가된 경우의 의류관리행정의 사양이 서로 상이한 것을 확인할 수 있다.Referring to FIG. 19 , the specifications of the clothing management administration when the sterilization stroke is not added to the “school uniform course” (eg, required time, type of operation, etc.) and the clothing management administration when the sterilization stroke is added to the “school uniform course” It can be seen that the specifications are different from each other.
예를 들어, "교복 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가되지 않은 경우, "교복 코스"에 대응되는 의류관리행정은 2분 동안 가열 행정을 진행하고, 2분 동안 1차 스팀 행정을 진행하고, 5분 동안 2차 스팀 행정을 진행하도록 구성될 수 있으나, "교복 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가된 경우, "교복 코스"에 대응되는 의류관리행정은 2분 동안 가열 행정을 진행하고, 1분 동안 정지한 후 4분 동안 2차 스팀 행정을 진행하도록 구성될 수 있다. 이는, 추가적인 스팀 행정이 살균 행정에 포함되어 있기 때문이다.For example, if the sterilization stroke is not added to the "School Uniform Course", the clothing management cycle corresponding to the "School Uniform Course" is a heating stroke for 2 minutes, a first steam stroke for 2 minutes, and 5 minutes It may be configured to proceed with the second steam stroke during It may be configured to proceed with a second steam stroke for 4 minutes afterward. This is because an additional steam stroke is included in the sterilization stroke.
또 다른 예로, "데님 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가되지 않은 경우, "데님 코스"에 대응되는 의류관리행정은 4분 동안 가열 행정을 진행하고, 3분 동안 2차 스팀 행정을 진행하도록 구성될 수 있으나, "데님 코스"에 살균 행정이 추가된 경우, "데님 코스"에 대응되는 의류관리행정은 4분 동안 가열 행정을 진행하고, 2분 동안 정지한 후 4분 동안 2차 스팀 행정을 진행하도록 구성될 수 있다.As another example, when the sterilization stroke is not added to the "denim course", the garment care stroke corresponding to the "denim course" may be configured to perform a heating stroke for 4 minutes and a secondary steam stroke for 3 minutes. However, if a sterilization cycle is added to the “Denim Course”, the garment care cycle corresponding to the “Denim Course” is to perform a heating cycle for 4 minutes, stop for 2 minutes, and then perform a second steam cycle for 4 minutes. can be configured.
또한, 도 19를 참조하면, "교복 코스"에 추가되는 살균 행정의 사양과, "데님 코스"에 추가되는 살균 행정의 사양 또한 상이한 것을 확인할 수 있다.In addition, referring to FIG. 19 , it can be seen that the specification of the sterilization step added to the “school uniform course” and the specification of the sterilization step added to the “denim course” are also different.
예를 들어, "교복 코스"에 추가된 살균 행정은 1분 동안 가열 행정을 진행하고 8분 동안 스팀 행정을 진행하는 것으로 구성될 수 있으나, "데님 코스"에 추가된 살균 행정은 1,5분 동안 가열 행정을 진행하고 7분 동안 스팀 행정을 진행하는 것으로 구성될 수 있다.For example, a sterilization stroke added to the "School Uniform Course" may consist of a heating stroke for 1 minute and a steam stroke for 8 minutes, whereas a sterilization stroke added to the "Denim Course" is 1,5 minutes. It may consist of performing a heating stroke for a while and a steam stroke for 7 minutes.
본 개시에 따르면, 의류관리코스에 대응되는 의류의 종류, 재질 또는 의류관리의 유형에 따라 추가되는 살균 행정의 사양이 최적으로 설정될 수 있으며, 살균 행정의 추가에 따라 의류관리코스에 대응되는 의류관리행정의 사양도 최적으로 설정될 수 있다.According to the present disclosure, the specification of the sterilization stroke added according to the type, material, or type of clothing corresponding to the clothing management course may be optimally set, and according to the addition of the sterilization operation, the clothing corresponding to the clothing management course The specifications of the management administration can also be optimally set.
