A leveling device for household appliances and a washing machine with the same

Abstract

The invention provides a leveling device for household appliances and a washing machine with the leveling device. The leveling device includes a hydraulic foot, and the hydraulic foot includes: a fixed part; a movable adjustment part, which is sleeved outside the fixed part and can be relative to its axial movement; there is an accommodating chamber for containing hydraulic medium between the fixed part and the movable regulating part; as the pressure changes, the hydraulic medium drives the movable regulating part to move axially along the outer sheath Leveling. In the leveling device of the present invention, when the hydraulic foot is fixed on the bottom plate of the household appliance, the movable adjustment part that can move up and down is sleeved outside the fixed part, so that the lateral size of the movable adjustment part can be increased, and the activity can be effectively increased. The contact area between the adjustment part and the support surface improves the support stability of the leveling device for the household appliances.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of support and leveling of household appliances, in particular to a leveling device for household appliances and a washing machine with the leveling device. Background technique [0002] Household appliances are generally equipped with a leveling device at the bottom of the shell. When placing the household appliance, the leveling device can be adjusted to make it reach a stable placement state. After leveling and placing, the leveling device can support the household appliance to keep it Stablize. [0003] Taking the washing machine as an example, the existing washing machines are generally equipped with bolt feet at the bottom of the shell or the whole machine. The bolt feet include screw rods, nut washers and rubber pads. The nut washers can be rotated up and down on the screw rods, and the screw rods can also be Rotate up and down in the screw hole of the bottom plate of the shell, and adjust the height...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0004] Although the feet of the above-mentioned washing machine realize the leveling of the washing machine, the user needs to manually adjust it. If the washing machine has a large weight or the installation space is small, the user's operation is inconvenient

In addition, the vibration of the washing machine during the long-term working process also has an effect on the leveling feet, which can easily lead to the failure of its support and cause the washing machine to be placed unevenly.

[0005] For example, the existing 8KG drum washing machine is generally about 80Kg, which is relatively heavy, and it is extremely inconvenient for consumers to adjust. Even if the adjustment is completed, the washing machine cannot be adjusted to the best state. The washing machine is accelerated from 0r / min to about 1600r / min when washing. During drying and dehydration, once the washing machine is not level or there is a problem with weak legs, it will cause great vibration, which greatly affects the comfort of consumers

[0006] Also, the vibration caused by the unevenness of the washing machine may loosen the foot screws, causing the foot bracket to move vertically, this instability may change the level of the washing machine, resulting in stronger vibration

This vicious cycle makes the washing machine use for a long time, the noise will become louder, and it will also cause some damage to the washing machine itself, shortening the service life.

[0007] Therefore, the leveling of the existing washing machine requires manual adjustment, which is time-consuming, laborious and has poor precision.
