The invention relates to a portable device (1100) comprising a bottom surface (BS) intended to be in contact with a textile (TXT). The portable device comprises an image sensor (5) for taking an image of a textile, and an illumination system (6) for illuminating a portion of the textile when said image is being taken. The portable device also comprises a control unit (8a) for executing an algorithm stored in the portable device, using the taken image as an input of said algorithm, to obtain a classification of the textile. The image sensor and the control unit are integrated within the portable device. The image sensor has an active surface sensitive to light, which is oriented compared to said bottom surface (BS), with an absolute value of the orientation angle being in the range 15-70 degrees; and/or the illumination system (6) has a light source oriented compared to the said bottom surface (BS), with an absolute value of the orientation angle being in the range 15-70 degrees.

The present disclosure discloses a method for washing clothing by an intelligent clothing washing management device, comprising following steps. The method includes selecting one or more of categories of clothing displayed on a clothing module and displaying a selected clothing model in an area to be washed. The method also includes clicking on a start item, a washing procedure recommendation module analyzing and automatically recommending washing parameters according to the selected clothing model. The method further includes applying the washing parameters displayed and recommended, a processing module receiving washing parameters recommended by the washing procedure recommendation module and controlling a washing device; wherein the washing parameters at least include washing time, washing temperature and rotation speed.

The invention provides an apparatus (8) for cleaning cloth which includes a body (10) with an aperture, a closure, which is engageable with the aperture, a tub (26) with an outer shell and a cylindrical Inner cavity which corresponds with the aperture, a drum (28), which is positioned inside the cylindrical inner cavity (54) and which includes a wall, with an inner surface, an outer surface and a plurality of perforations (62) in the wait, a base (64) and an opposing mouth (66) which registers with the aperture, a drive means (30) which is connected to or engaged with the drum and which allows rotational movement of the drum about an axis, a generator (32) and an electrical power supply (78), inside the body, wherein the power supply is adapted to provide pulsating electrical power to the generator and wherein the generator is actuable to produce pulses of microwave energy at least into part of the drum.

The laundry treating appliance can comprise a wash basket defining a washing chamber, having a clothes mover in the treating chamber to agitate the clothes during a cycle of operation for cleaning. The method can comprise supplying a wash liquid to the treating chamber and rotating the clothes mover within the treating chamber with an electric motor operating at a high duty cycle wash phase and a low duty cycle wash phase.

The present disclosure discloses a method for storing a washing machine identification code in a tag memory, the washing machine identification code being for indicating fabric information, the tag memory including an EPC memory for storing an electronic product code for identifying a tag object and a USER memory for storing user-defined data. The method includes: detecting a storage space remained of the EPC memory of the tag memory; storing the washing machine identification code into the EPC memory if the storage space is enough to store the washing machine identification code; otherwise, storing the washing machine identification code into the USER memory. Meanwhile, different writing priorities are used for different types of fabric attribute information in the storage process, thus ensuring that the electronic tag memory can completely and effectively store the key information of fabric attributes and meeting the requirement of smart washing of the washing machine.

A computer-implemented method for creating a bespoke laundry treatment recipe includes receiving fabric data related to one or more of stain identity, fabric identity, user requirements and user preference; comparing by means of a data processing system said input data with ingredient combination data stored on a non-transitory computer readable storage medium, and formulating one or more laundry treatment recipes, said recipes being bespoke to the user input data; wherein said ingredient combination data comprises: multiple ingredient composition data; multiple combinations of said ingredient compositions; and multiple treatment (e.g. stain) categories related to said ingredient composition combinations.
