But also can consider such example, wherein, the cylinder drive motor rotated for making cylinder 120 and the fan motor for making draft fan 160 rotate are formed by independent motor respectively, thus have two motors.

Fig. 4 is the simplified perspective view of the aromatic substance module illustrated as Types Below: wherein, and the cylinder liquid storage box in dryer is inserted in drawer.With reference to this figure, drawer 112 can be arranged on the back side of drawer lid 110, and drawer 112 can move in the mode pushing/pull out together with drawer lid 110, and liquid storage box 113 can be contained in inside drawer 112.Liquid storage box 113 can be the container of inner hollow, the fragrance solutions injected with the hand-hole 114 stored by being formed at the upper surface place of liquid storage box 113.On the other hand, liquid storage box 113 is combined with jet pump 115 by check-valves (not shown) etc., therefore, be stored in liquid in liquid storage box 113 can by pump 115 with high-pressure injection while, move along connecting hose 116.In addition, connecting hose 116 can be connected to the nozzle 118 at the top place being arranged on suction channel 130, and suction channel 130 is fixed to the rear surface supporting member for rotatably idler pulley 120.By this structure, the fragrance solutions be stored in liquid storage box 113 is ejected into the inner side of cylinder 120 with spray pattern by suction channel 130.In this embodiment, although consider nozzle to be arranged on example in suction channel 130, need not be confined to this, nozzle 118 also can be arranged on the rear surface place of cylinder, fragrance solutions to be directly injected to the inside of cylinder.

The electrode sensor (not shown) for identifying the kind of liquid be stored in liquid storage box can be provided with in the inside of liquid storage box 113 or connecting hose 116.This electrode sensor can comprise pair of electrodes, and the pressure drop level caused for the resistance of the liquid between measuring due to electrode, allows user area to divide the type of liquid thus.

On the other hand, with reference to Fig. 4, can only install a liquid storage box on this dryer, therefore user should change liquid storage box and optionally sprays fragrance solutions or water simultaneously.But, also can consider the example simultaneously installing two liquid storage boxes, and water and fragrance solutions can be stored in each liquid storage box respectively.

Injection timing and the emitted dose of fragrance solutions can be changed based on each oven dry process.The oven dry process provided in this dryer can be roughly divided into general oven dry process and fragrance solutions sprays process, and this generally dries process for drying the wet clothes of ordinary meaning, and this fragrance solutions sprays process for improving the state of non-wet clothes.

Described general oven dry process can comprise hot-air supplying step and fragrance solutions injecting step, in this hot-air supplying step, the hot-air back of the body be under high temperature is supplied to the inside of cylinder to perform oven dry, in this fragrance solutions injecting step, dry and under the state suspending hot-air supply fragrance solutions be ejected into the inside of cylinder completing, dry wet clothes thus and tart up.Here, should change based on kinds of laundry for the time supplying hot-air in described hot-air supplying step, therefore this general oven dry process can comprise the multiple processes based on various clothing.When general oven dry process, can by the step of the injection fragrance solutions after user optionally complete oven dry.In other words, the timing only desired by user just can spray fragrance solutions, for this reason, described control panel can be provided with and can determine whether to spray fragrance solutions and the device selecting flavor strength.To be described this after a while.

Fragrance solutions sprays process can except drying function, for strengthening the process of the function improving clothing state, to perform such as deodorizing except tarting up, smoothing wrinkle, the function such as softening.More particularly, fragrance solutions process of spraying can comprise fragrance increases process, this fragrance increases process and is used for, by supplying hot-air then spray fragrance solutions to tart up within the period short compared with general oven dry process, such as in 5-10 minute, performing deodorizing, destatic and softening operation.Now, after completing oven dry, fragrance solutions can be sprayed 10 seconds with the amount of about 10cc, and the hot-air supplied before spraying fragrance solutions can make clothing soften and raise the surface temperature of clothing, allowing aromatic substance to be more efficiently coated on clothing thus.In addition, the stink infiltrated in clothing can be discharged due to hot-air, thus effectively removes this stink.

In addition, fragrance solutions process of spraying can comprise perfuming new process again, this perfuming again new process is used for spraying fragrance solutions while supply hot-air reaches 15-20 minute, then after supply hot-air, again sprays fragrance solutions before cooling.Can from supply hot-air count pass by after 4 minutes, be injected in supply hot-air with the amount of 30cc while the fragrance solutions that sprays a minute.Evaporate by hot-air containing the moisture of fragrance solutions sprayed to some extent, and the steam of evaporation can with contact with clothing with remove fold, stink and electrostatic on clothing and by prevent clothing over-drying come softening laundry.During this process, flavor component may be discharged to the hot-air be also then continuously fed outside cylinder and water down together with hot-air, and therefore fragrance may not be increased on clothing.After completing hot-air supply, the fragrance solutions 10 seconds of about 10cc can be sprayed again, think that clothing tarts up.

In addition, described fragrance solutions process of spraying also can comprise again new process, and this multiple new process is used for only while supply hot-air reaches 15-20 minute, spraying fragrance solutions.This multiple new process only can spray fragrance solutions while supply hot-air, and from perfuming again new process, only removing fragrance thus increases function.But during this multiple new process, the amount of the fragrance solutions sprayed can be set as about 50cc, this amount is greater than the amount of perfuming new process again, to strengthen the effect brought due to steam supply.

On the other hand, though store in described liquid storage box be water time, also can apply this multiple new process.In other words, drums inside can be ejected water to during drying course, to perform aforementioned smoothing wrinkle, destatic and to soften operation.Thus, when dryer being only provided with a liquid storage box, fragrance solutions or water can be sprayed based on the kind of liquid stored in this liquid storage box, to perform again new process.When dryer being provided with two liquid storage boxes, can injection water to perform again new process.Here, consider that fragrance solutions is relative to more expensive water, when dryer being only provided with a liquid storage box and store in this liquid storage box be fragrance solutions when, new process can not be carried out again, or produce buzzer and change above-mentioned liquid storage box to point out user with the liquid storage box storing water.

Here, the injection of aromatic substance will be described in detail.

Aromatic substance injection method roughly can be divided into (1) pre-treatment step, (2) perfuming treatment step, and (3) post-processing step.

Below, this aromatic substance method briefly will be described.

(1) pre-treatment step is so a kind of process: namely, expanding and answering new, being immersed in well in clothing to allow aromatic substance for making clothing.According to the present invention, relate in cylinder aromatic substance being supplied to dryer and spray aromatic substance after drying the clothing having completed washing and dehydration in this dryer, but need not be confined to this, and aromatic substance supply process according to the present invention also can have been deposited the clothing of long period in user's taking-up and carry out before using this clothing in wardrobe.The clothing having deposited the long period in wardrobe may wrinkling and crumple during storage, or the stink of wardrobe may immerse in clothing, and therefore, the process that can be provided for supplying aromatic substance removes this stink.In addition, if first made clothing stand pre-treatment step before supply aromatic substance, then clothing can be made to expand, allow aromatic substance to deposit well in perfuming treatment step subsequently thus.

(2) perfuming treatment step is so a kind of process: namely, carries out pumping and be ejected in cylinder by nozzle by this fragrance solutions to the fragrance solutions be stored in aforementioned fragrance thing supplying module, allows aromatic substance to immerse in clothing thus.In aforementioned fragrance thing supplying module, describe such example, wherein: utilize the pump in storage bin or apotheca, with predetermined pressure, then fragrance solutions pressurization be also ejected in cylinder by nozzle.But, according to embodiment, the feed path for supplying aromatic substance can be opened and fragrance solutions is not pumped into described pump with the internal feed aromatic substance to cylinder, or, the evaporation element of separation can be adopted, this evaporation element can be configured for fragrance solutions being evaporated and aromatic substance being supplied to the inside of cylinder, thus accelerates the evaporation of this aromatic substance.In this case, described evaporation element can be arranged on various position, such as, be arranged on forward support, rear support place, or be arranged on for introducing in the pipeline of aromatic substance.

(3) post-processing step can perform as making the aromatic substance be ejected in cylinder be evenly distributed on clothing and drying clothes equably, and this post-processing step can comprise cooling procedure, drying course and cooling procedure again.Described cooling procedure is arranged for and makes the aromatic substance being ejected into drums inside be easy to shift between clothing, described drying course can be arranged for the aromatic substance of drying and being ejected in cylinder, and described cooling procedure is again arranged for the temperature reducing drums inside, thus user is allowed finally to take out clothing.But, in new cycle period again, initial spray aromatic substance time can not provide cooling, described below.

Hereinafter, (1) pre-treatment step will be described in detail, (2) perfuming treatment step, and (3) post-processing step.

(1) pre-treatment step

The basic skills of pre-treatment step first makes cylinder rolling (cylinder being rotated at a predetermined velocity by drive unit), and can perform this rolling in a uni-directional or bi-directional manner.By this rolling, the clothing be contained in cylinder may stand rising-falling process while rotating together with cylinder, and clothing can be made to expand and can shake off and remove the foreign matter that can be attached on clothing, thus clothing can be in pure and fresh state.

In addition, preferably, during this pre-treatment step, perform the time that rolling spends can be longer than the time consumed in perfuming treatment step, and experimentally, the suitable rolling time can be about 4 minutes to 5 minutes.

In addition, during this rolling, can supply air in cylinder, this realizes by running the draft fan be arranged in dryer.During this rolling process, if air is recycled to by draft fan in cylinder, then can remove the stink remained between clothing, and while making air pass clothing, the infiltration of aromatic substance material can be promoted further.

In addition, in this case, the air be supplied in cylinder can be the hot-air heated by heater, and when supplying hot-air, can the structure of softening laundry further, improves freshness effect further thus.When supplying hot-air, just before entering perfuming treatment step, the process reducing temperature in cylinder may be necessarily required, this is because: when aromatic substance being ejected on clothing under the state that the temperature of the temperature in cylinder or clothing is higher, there is not deposition due to aromatic substance but evaporate immediately, so reduce the intensity of the aromatic substance be deposited on clothing.

As mentioned above, in the step of spraying aromatic substance, the temperature in cylinder should be confirmed, now, the temperature that this temperature can measure based on the specified point in cylinder or the temperature that the clothing place of rolling measures in cylinder, or can based on the temperature of the air of discharging from the cylinder of dryer.

Although the intensity of the aromatic substance that the clothing taken out from cylinder deposits subjectively is felt by user, experimentally known, the flavor strength level that user feels is stronger, and the temperature in cylinder is lower.In the typical drying course of dryer, can to be carried out before take out clothing from cylinder after completing oven dry by the process reducing clothing temperature for supplying the cooling procedure not adding hot-air, therefore, the consumer taking out this clothing can not feel hot.In addition, when the temperature based on drum outlet place considers the temperature of the clothing that user takes out, find that the flavor strength that the flavor strength that consumer feels under about 47 degree is felt under about 30 degree than consumer is much weak.

With reference to Fig. 5, show above description with curve map.The trunnion axis of this curve map represents bowl temperature when being ejected in cylinder by aromatic substance, and its vertical axes represents the size of flavor strength.In the present embodiment, the temperature based on drum outlet place measures said temperature.But, need not be confined to this, also another part place in cylinder can measure the temperature of cylinder, and, can be contrasted by temperature that this another part place at cylinder is measured and flavor strength now, draw the temperature of cylinder with curve map.But, when another part place measuring tempeature of cylinder, may be slightly different from the curve map in Fig. 5 in concrete numerical value, but the general shape of described curve map is identical.

According to the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 5, have been found that: the temperature when spraying aromatic substance in cylinder is about less than 40 degree time, and user can feel fragrance from clothing, but time at lower than the temperature of about 20 degree, flavor strength may be crossed strong and cause bad sensation to user.Thus, the optimum temperature for perfuming process can between about 40 degree to 20 degree.Here, user may want process clothes at short notice, therefore when considering this point, when the temperature in cylinder is between about 35 degree and 25 degree, can carry out controlling in reasonable time, have suitable flavor strength.More preferably, when controlling the temperature of cylinder for about 30 degree when spraying aromatic substance, optimum can be obtained in time and flavor strength.Here, the temperature in cylinder is the temperature based on drum outlet place, but the temperature that also can be used in temperature that another place in cylinder measures instead of above-mentioned exit is used as the temperature of cylinder.But, when using the temperature at another some place of cylinder, may be slightly different from the temperature at drum outlet place, and, experimentally, there is the difference of about 3 degree therebetween.

Can according to the requirement of user, determine the flavor strength felt by user when aromatic substance is deposited on clothing in every way.Select button can be provided with on the control panel of dryer, the intensity selecting desired by him or she to allow user, and the controller of dryer can carry out controlling to make the inside of cylinder to have different temperatures, thus controls flavor strength accordingly with the button that user selects.Such as, user first can select the process that can perform perfuming process operation, then by the flavor strength regulon of flavor strength can be selected to set flavor strength desired by him or she, and when the control button of dryer is pressed, controller can detect user-selected flavor strength (such as, high, medium and low) and the temperature come according to selected flavor strength in index drum.For this reason, when user is " height " by the intensity that flavor strength regulon is selected, controller can read the temperature value of temperature sensor (referring to the temperature sensor at drum outlet place here), and when the temperature at drum outlet place is 25 degree, aromatic substance jet pump or switch valve is made to run one period of presetting, with by aromatic substance injection of material or be evaporated in cylinder, aromatic substance is allowed to immerse in clothing thus.In a similar fashion, when the intensity that user is selected by flavor strength regulon for " in " or " low ", described controller can when the temperature at drum outlet place is 30 or 35 degree, make operation aromatic substance jet pump or switch valve run one default period, allow aromatic substance to immerse in clothing thus.

In this case, replace temperature value, can set and control this operation the cool time (for supplying the time of the air do not heated by heater) corresponding with flavor strength.In addition, flavor strength can be controlled by the injecting time changing aromatic substance, will be described in detail this in following perfuming treatment step.

(2) perfuming treatment step

The feature of perfuming treatment step is: the internal spray aromatic substance from aromatic substance supplying module to cylinder making cylinder rolling while reaches one period of specifying.In addition, be ejected into the mass flow of emitted dose by sprayed fragrance solutions of the aromatic substance of drums inside, the running time of described pump or the opening time of switch valve to determine, further, the flavor strength that the emitted dose of aromatic substance can be selected according to user is determined.In other words, when user is " height " by the intensity that flavor strength regulon is selected, this running time can be made longer to carrying out control the running time etc. of described pump, therefore, it is possible to spray more substantial aromatic substance, controlling emitted dose thus.Hereinafter, the several embodiments according to perfuming treatment step of the present invention will be described.

1) the first embodiment

In a first embodiment, use description to aromatic substance is ejected into the continuous injection in the various methods in cylinder and interrupted injection.

Continuous injection in the present embodiment is by aromatic substance from aromatic substance supplying module continuous injection to the situation in cylinder, and interrupted injection is pump by repeating to open and close aromatic substance supplying module or switch valve and carries out off and on, situation about aromatic substance being ejected in cylinder.Continuous injection and interrupted injection are distinguished by laundry amounts, the laundry amounts of namely putting into cylinder.When the controller of dryer to detect the laundry amounts putting into cylinder and judges that this laundry amounts is less, can continuous injection be carried out, and when controller judges that this laundry amounts is larger, can interrupted injection be carried out.

More specifically, the process of process aromatic substance can comprise the following two kinds situation: namely, the situation that user selects perfuming process to operate, and user selects the situation comprising the general drying operation of aromatic substance course of injection.Process when user selects perfuming process to operate can comprise: select perfuming process operation; Dryer controller is allowed to detect laundry amounts; When the laundry amounts detected in this laundry amount sensing step is larger, perform interrupted injection; And, when the laundry amounts detected in this laundry amount sensing step is less, perform continuous injection.In the case, can based on the laundry amounts detected, repeat opening and closing operation reach one period of scheduled time while aromatic substance is ejected in cylinder.

In addition, user selects process when comprising the general drying operation of aromatic substance course of injection to comprise: select drying operation; Controller is allowed to detect laundry amounts; For the drying operation step of drying clothes; And for aromatic substance being ejected into the aromatic substance injecting step in cylinder.In this aromatic substance injecting step, when the laundry amounts that controller detects is larger, can interrupted injection be carried out, and when the laundry amounts that controller detects is less, can continuous injection be carried out.In interrupted injection, can based on the laundry amounts detected, repeating opening and closing operation reach one period of scheduled time while spray aromatic substance.In addition, the flavor strength can selected based on laundry amounts or user or consider that both determine to spray the time of aromatic substance (continuous injection or interrupted injection).

When laundry amounts is larger, aromatic substance can be sprayed with intermittent mode, because when laundry amounts is little, the aromatic substance that sprays can easily and equably be deposited on clothing, but when laundry amounts large, possibly cannot carry out aromatic substance deposition equably by continuous injection.Thus, when laundry amounts is large, aromatic substance can be ejected in cylinder from aromatic substance supplying module and reaches one period of scheduled time, then can make cylinder rolling and clothing entanglement is untied again, afterwards, again spray, allow aromatic substance to be effectively deposited on clothing thus.By this process, aromatic substance can uniform deposition on clothing, thus improve the uniformity of aromatic substance.

Experimentally, preferably, continuous injection can be carried out when laundry amounts is 1kg-2kg, and interrupted injection can be carried out when laundry amounts is greater than 3kg.In addition, preferably, when interrupted injection, interval duration, the time that namely described pump cuts out can be clothing in cylinder performs circling behavior and spends time (namely clothing raises along cylinder and also then falls thus tangle or untie the spent time) along with the rotation of cylinder, and this time can be preferably 5 seconds.In addition, the time that the pump of aromatic substance supplying module is opened during this interrupted injection can be preferably set to the opening time last opening time being equaled or before being longer than.Such as, when laundry amounts is 3kg, when user have selected " in " flavor strength time, the time that the pump of aromatic substance supplying module is opened during this interrupted injection process can carry out as follows: open 15 seconds, close 5 seconds, open 15 seconds, close 5 seconds and open 20 seconds.

2) the second embodiment

In a second embodiment, do not relate to the oven dry process performed after washing process and dehydration, but relate to the situation of at short notice clothing used or deposit being carried out to perfuming process.Hereinafter, it can be described as " modification (touch-upcourse) ".In this case, the detection of laundry amounts need not be carried out in an individual manner, and aromatic substance injection can have continuous injection process.

Modification according to this embodiment can comprise: select a modification; Cooling step; And aromatic substance injecting step.In the case, cooling step can perform just before aromatic substance injecting step, and can in aromatic substance injecting step continuous injection aromatic substance.

In addition, according to another embodiment of this modification, it can comprise the step allowing user to select flavor strength.In the case, this modification can comprise: select a modification; Select flavor strength; Cooling step; And aromatic substance injecting step.In addition, in the case, the flavor strength can selected based on user regulate the amount of sprayed aromatic substance, and, also can utilize the pump of aromatic substance supplying module or control the amount of sprayed aromatic substance the running time of valve.

3) the 3rd embodiment

3rd embodiment relates on the clothes that to be ejected into by aromatic substance in cylinder to remove the fold of clothing, to perform the process of deodorizing etc.Hereinafter, this process can be described as " multiple new process ".This process can be performed to the clothing completing washing process and dehydration, or can align and to use or the clothing deposited performs this process.

Multiple new process according to this embodiment can comprise: select a multiple new process; First aromatic substance injecting step; Cooling step; And the second aromatic substance injecting step.In the case, aromatic substance injecting step is undertaken by the continuous injection process for continuous injection aromatic substance.In addition, in the first aromatic substance injecting step, spray aromatic substance institute's time spent can be set as longer than spraying aromatic substance institute's time spent in the second aromatic substance injecting step, thus to clothing smoothing wrinkle, and realize deodorizing effect by spraying more substantial aromatic substance compared with the first aromatic substance injecting step.This multiple new process can also comprise the baking step for supplying hot-air between the first aromatic substance injecting step and the second aromatic substance injecting step, with drying clothes, thus, the drying clothes when immersing the aromatic substance having and to be ejected into during the first aromatic substance injecting step in cylinder in clothing.

In addition, according to another embodiment of this multiple new process, user can select flavor strength.In the case, this multiple new process can comprise: select a multiple new process; Select flavor strength; First aromatic substance injecting step; Cooling step; And the second aromatic substance injecting step.When user have selected flavor strength, can by regulating the amount of sprayed aromatic substance to spray aromatic substance based on selected flavor strength.Also can utilize the pump of aromatic substance supplying module or control the amount of sprayed aromatic substance the running time of valve.

In above-mentioned perfuming treatment step, during the process of spraying aromatic substance, the draft fan of dryer can be made while drum rotating to run to supply air to the inside of cylinder continuously, or, during the process of spraying aromatic substance, while drum rotating, the draft fan of dryer can be closed, not supply air in cylinder.

3) post-processing step

Post-processing step is the process for performing cooling procedure, and this cooling procedure supplies air in cylinder by making draft fan run under heater closed condition.This post-processing step provided for being made aromatic components shift by lucky cooling step after injection aromatic substance and be fixed on clothing, and can not evaporate from clothing.

In addition, this post-processing step also can comprise drying course, and the moisture that this drying course may remain in clothing for the aromatic substance removed owing to spraying during aromatic substance injecting step also provides comfort level.During this drying course, the heater of dryer can run, hot-air to be supplied to the inside of cylinder.In addition, this post-processing step also can be included in the cooling procedure performed after drying course, makes the user of taking-up clothing can not feel boiling hot thus.In the case, the temperature of this cooling procedure can be higher than the temperature for the cooling procedure of spraying aromatic substance during aromatic substance injecting step.If this post-processing step carried out immediately after injection aromatic substance performs too of a specified duration, then aromatic substance potential evaporation is fallen, and therefore, this post-processing step should be shorter than the pre-treatment step before aromatic substance injecting step.

On the other hand, user's amount of fragrance solutions of spraying during can regulating each process according to his or she judgement.In other words, the value that user can set by increasing or be reduced to each process further regulates flavor strength.The selection of this process and the adjustment of flavor strength can be undertaken by aforementioned control panel 108.

Fig. 6 is the view of the example that control panel 108 is shown, the left side of this control panel 108 is provided with power knob 10, and the right side of control panel 108 is provided with process selection knob 30.In the following description, the element identical with the button shown in Fig. 1 is represented by identical Reference numeral, and will omit its repeated description.

On the other hand, operation/pause button 14 can be provided with on the right side of knob 30, and the right side of this operation/pause button 14 can be provided with aridity button 16, the temperature control burtons 18 of the hot air temperature that supplies when being used to indicate oven dry, for setting the volume of buzzer to inform the buzzer setting button 22 of the various situation of user and the Item selector buttons 24 etc. for setting various option.The aridity the Show Button 16a for showing the state just set can be provided with on the top of aridity button 16, wherein aridity the Show Button 16a can comprise multiple LED element, further, no matter when press this aridity button 16, the element with respective horizontal in these LED element is luminous.This description is also applicable to the temperature indicating device 18a at the top place being arranged on temperature control burtons 18.

Flavor strength can be provided with on the right side of temperature control burtons 18 and regulate button 40.Flavor strength regulates button 40 to be configured to: no matter when user presses this flavor strength regulates button 40, all regulates flavor strength with four grades, and by flavor strength display unit 40a, the flavor strength of setting can be showed user.In addition, can be provided with on the top of flavor strength display unit 40a and recharge lamp 40b for prompting " fragrance solutions not enough " in liquid storage box.Even if when the liquid storage box for storing fragrance solutions is not arranged in dryer and fragrance solutions is not enough, recharging lamp 40b also can be luminous.Certainly, also can be provided with for pointing out that whether be provided with liquid storage box in this dryer, independent lamp.

On the other hand, when being identified the liquid that stores in described liquid storage box by electrode sensor and then user has made the selection utilizing the liquid identified to realize, the lamp for carrying out this prompting can be provided with within it.Such as, when be seated in liquid storage box be water time, if user have selected the process comprising fragrance solutions course of injection, then this lamp can be opened to inform that the selection of user is wrong.

Here, only when the process selected by knob 30 will spray fragrance solutions, just can activate flavor strength and regulate button 40, but when pressing other button, not run this function.Thus, the misoperation regulating button 40 and generation owing to unnecessarily pressing flavor strength can be prevented, and after have selected process, flavor strength can be regulated successively, improve ease of use thus.

For this reason, the bottom of button 40 can be regulated to be provided with LED element (not shown) in flavor strength, during to regulate button 40 to activate in flavor strength, allow user visually to notice it.The Reference numeral 24a as drying time setting button of OptionButton 24 can be set as only in one section of Preset Time by drying time setting button 24a setting, performing drying operation.

Now, the operation of previous embodiment is described with reference to Fig. 7.First, if user have selected the process that he or she expects by rotating knob 30, whether the process selected by the controller then comprised in this dryer confirms is that fragrance increases permission process, namely after drying course, whether include the process of spraying fragrance solutions, and, when selected process is fragrance increase permission process, activates flavor strength and regulate button 40.If user presses flavor strength and regulates button 40 in the state setting fragrance increase forbidding process (i.e. multiple new process), then can export buzzer to inform that this is a wrong choice, and, input when there is no button within one default period or described operation/pause button is pressed time, selected circulation can be performed.

Subsequently, if selected process is fragrance increase permission process, then controller confirms whether this process is special perfuming process.In other words, the general oven dry process of this process may correspond to can select in user the process that whether tarts up, and perfuming again new process be basic demand, therefore it may correspond in special perfuming process.Thus, when selected process is special perfuming process, if user does not input occurrence, then flavor strength is set to " normally " level, and is therefore turned on the lamp corresponding to " normally " level of being somebody's turn to do by flavor strength display unit 40a.Then, if user presses flavor strength and regulates button 40, then perform this circulation by changing flavor strength to display based on this, and, button 40 or described operation/pause button is regulated to be pressed if do not press flavor strength within one default period, then the circulation selected by performing.If selected process is the general oven dry process can selecting whether to tart up, then the lamp be arranged in flavor strength display unit 40a is closed, and makes user recognize thus and should regulate flavor strength.

In this step, if what does not all select or presses operation/pause button user, then can perform the circulation that the general oven dry process that increases step with British plain spirits is corresponding, if and press flavor strength regulate button 40, the flavor strength display unit 40a then corresponding to the flavor strength changed based on this can open, further, if do not have button to input within a period of time of presetting, then selected circulation can be performed.

On the other hand, when flavor strength can be selected during this process to regulate button, namely, when flavor strength regulates button 40 to be activated, flavor strength regulates the LED element of button 40 to open or close, and make user recognize thus can by spraying fragrance solutions to tart up and can regulating flavor strength during drying course.It is also by making alternatively to show.In other words, adjacent with knob 30 for informing that the independent LED of " spraying aromatic substance during drying course " can be arranged to, to open it or to close, and, each process can be respectively in addition and be provided with LED, then, differently can construct form or the shape of illuminated form or color or LED arrangement, separate with other process area fragrance to be increased process.

Except using the method for LED, also can consider to change the process print color adjacent with knob 30, print the bar of different colours or export the method for specific sound.In the case, only can export sound when fragrance increases process, or process can be increased for fragrance or other process exports different sound.

Then, user can press flavor strength and regulate button 40, and to input the information relevant to the flavor strength desired by him or she, and controller can spray the fragrance solutions of the amount corresponding with inputted flavor strength information after completing drying course.In addition, permission user can be provided with on described control panel and directly select the load of clothes relevant to spraying fragrance solutions and the button of type.

On the other hand, previous embodiment can change to another kind of form.In other words, when general oven dry process in these processes, user can select whether to spray aromatic substance, and can be provided with the device for realizing this point on described control panel, and it regulates button to realize by flavor strength.Fig. 8 illustrates that flavor strength regulates the view of the modified example of button, and wherein flavor strength regulates the selection of button 40' can be made up of four grades, and does not perform fragrance increase when " British plain spirits " of the lowest class.In the case, can activate " British plain spirits ", only just can select when have selected the general oven dry process in each process on flavor strength adjustment button 40'.In other words, process can be selected to be divided into: special fragrance increases process, fragrance increase can select process and fragrance increases forbidding process.When fragrance increases forbidding process, flavor strength can be made to regulate button inactive, and when fragrance increase can select process, " British plain spirits " grade can be selected and flavor strength can be activated to regulate button, but when special fragrance increases process, " British plain spirits " grade can not be selected.

Aforementioned process has been shown in Fig. 9.If user opens the power supply of dryer, and enter a process (C) by knob 30, then controller confirms entered process in step sl.When forbidding fragrance by confirming this process (C) (step S2) and increasing, selected process can be performed with complete operation.But when have selected fragrance and increasing permission process, controller is confirmed whether that requesting fragrance increases process (step S3) again.

When requesting fragrance and increasing process, that is, when special fragrance increases process, can step S4 be continued to, thus forbidding " British plain spirits ", do not allow thus to select " British plain spirits ".When fragrance increase can select process, step S5 can be continued to the flavor strength allowing user to select desired by him or she, then, perform selected process (S6) based on presupposed information.

Figure 10 is the view of the another embodiment that control panel 108 is shown.The element identical with the button shown in Fig. 6 is represented by identical Reference numeral, and will omit its repeated description.In each project of peripheral part office being arranged in process selection knob 30, Reference numeral 30c is that aforementioned fragrance increases process, and Reference numeral 30d is perfuming new process again, and Reference numeral 30e corresponds to multiple new process.In addition, drying time setting button 26 can be provided with on the right side of temperature control burtons 18, and the drying time display unit 26a for showing set drying time can be provided with on the top of drying time setting button 26.In addition, the buzzer setting button 24b for regulating buzzer can be provided with in OptionButton 24 side.

Compared with Fig. 6, the fragrance that can also be increased in statement on knob 30 in the embodiment shown in fig. 10 further increases process, selects various types of more oven dry processes intuitively to allow user.Here, when have selected general oven dry process, " British plain spirits " grade can be activated, thus allow user in several step as the previous embodiment of Fig. 8 executive process selection and set of options.

Figure 11 is the view of the another embodiment that control panel 108 is shown.The element identical with the button shown in Fig. 6 or Figure 10 in Figure 11 is represented by identical Reference numeral, and will omit its repeated description.In each project of peripheral part office being arranged in process selection knob 30, Reference numeral 30f can be set to for selecting perfuming new process and any one in multiple new process again, and Reference numeral 30g may correspond in aforementioned fragrance increase process.Here, when user have selected the project corresponding to Reference numeral 30f by rotating knob 30, button 40 is regulated to determine final selected process by flavor strength.

In other words, if regulate this flavor strength to regulate button 40 and set " very strong ", any one in " by force " and " normally " that show flavor strength, then can select perfuming new process again, and if flavor strength regulates button 40 to be adjusted to " British plain spirits ", then can select again new process.Result, the quantity being arranged in the project around knob 30 can be less than the quantity that reality can select process, therefore arrangement around this knob can be simplified to strengthen visuality, be convenient to the selection of this knob thus, and, the option that can be set by the user in each step can be activated, to point out user the project that should select for each step, be convenient to its operation thus.
