Abstract:
A method and device for estimating drying time, and a clothes dryer, the method comprising the following steps: during drying, acquiring in real time, by means of an infrared sensor, the temperature of clothes to be dried; according to the temperature of the clothes to be dried which is acquired in real time and/or weight data which is detected by a weighing sensor, acquiring the load volume of the clothes to be dried; according to the temperature of the clothes to be dried which is acquired in real time and/or humidity data which is detected by a humidity sensor, acquiring the moisture content of the clothes to be dried; and according to the load volume and the moisture content of the clothes to be dried, estimating drying time for the clothes to be dried. By means of the temperature during heating of clothes to be dried, the method and device for estimating drying time, as well as the clothes dryer, may acquire the load volume and the moisture content of the clothes to be dried, and then accurately estimate drying time for the clothes to be dried, thus raising the degree of intelligence of the clothes dryer, and improving usage experience for users.
