Problems solved by technology

The drying system will inevitably inhale clothes dander and thread ends due to drying clothes for a long time, resulting in poor drying effect
And dander, thread ends, etc. are accumulated and blocked in the entire air duct system, and the long-term cycle baking will cause peculiar smell in the air duct, which will affect the user's washing and use, and even cause unit failure in severe cases.
The cleaning of the drying system mainly depends on the user or after-sales personnel to carry out manual cleaning from time to time, which is time-consuming and laborious
[0003] Patent No. CN201410218989.3 discloses a filter structure for flushing and automatic cleaning, which requires an additional water inlet and an electric cleaning device to increase structural complexity, operating time and cost; patent No. CN201811296515.5 The patent discloses a transposition device for interchanging filter screens, but it is equipped with a complicated driving device and occupies a large space, so it cannot realize the lightweight of the shell; there are also some technical solutions for judging whether the filter screen needs to be cleaned The method is the drying time, but this judgment method is an indirect judgment

Embodiment 1

[0049] This embodiment provides a filter device for a drying air duct of a washing machine. Such as figure 1 and figure 2 As shown, the washing machine to which the filter device of the present invention is applied includes a housing part and a drying air duct, wherein the housing part includes a door body 11 and a side plate 9, and the drying air duct includes a condensation end 2, a heating end 3 and a barrel Body 1, a fan system is arranged in the drying air duct. The circulation process of the airflow in the drying air duct is as follows: driven by the work of the fan system, the air in the drying air duct passes through the heating end 3 and is heated to form high-temperature air. The high-temperature air flows through the wet load in the cylinder body 1 and then cools down to become a sub-high temperature The high-humidity air then flows out from the air outlet on the cylinder 1, and then enters the condensing end 2. The sub-high temperature and high-humidity air exch...

Embodiment 2

[0058] This embodiment provides a method for judging the clogging degree of the filtering device, which is used to judge the clogging degree of the filtering device provided in Embodiment 1 of the present application.

[0059] The method specifically includes: before the drying program runs, respectively detecting the static pressure values ​​of the air inlet side of the first filter 4 and the air outlet of the condensing end 2, and judging the clogging degree of the filter device according to the change of the static pressure value, And give feedback to the user, prompting the user to clean or replace the filter device. If the first filter 4 is clogged due to dirt, the flow of the airflow caused by the first is not smooth, which will inevitably cause pressure changes. Generally, the pressure loss between the front and back of the filter, such as the filter screen, is small, and high-precision static pressure testing equipment is needed to ensure Testing the accuracy under low...

Embodiment 3

[0064] This embodiment provides a method for cleaning a filter device used in a drying air duct of a washing machine. Such as Figure 9 As shown, it includes the following steps: using the method for judging the clogging degree of the filter device provided in Example 2 to judge the clogging degree of the filter device; if the user is reminded to clean the filter device, the filter device is cleaned after the drying procedure . Specifically, the method for cleaning the filter device is to remove the first filter 4 and manually clean the first filter 4, if the filter device has a second filter 7, then simultaneously The second filter 7 is removed and the second filter 7 is manually cleaned. In the case where the corresponding position on the side plate 9 is reserved for the disassembly of the first filter 4, the second filter 7 and the hose 8, according to the system prompts, the filter can be manually removed from the side of the unit for maintenance. Flushing, its efficien...

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical filed of washing devices, in particular to a filter device used in a drying air duct of a washing machine, a method for judging the blocking degree of the filterdevice and a cleaning method of the filter device, and further relates to the washing machine comprising the filter device. The filter device comprises a first filter, a first static pressure measurement device and a second static pressure measurement device, wherein the first filter is arranged at an air inlet of a condensation end; the first static pressure measurement device is used for detecting a static pressure value of the air inlet of the condensation end, and the pressure measurement point is located on the air inlet side of the first filter; the second static pressure measurement device is used for detecting a static pressure value of an air outlet of the condensation end. By detecting the static pressure value of the air inlet side of the first filter and the static pressure value of the air outlet of the condensation end, whether the filter device in the drying air duct of the washing and drying integrated machine needs to be cleaned or not is judged, the process and the time for the system to judge whether the filter device needs to be cleaned or not are simplified and shortened respectively, and moreover, the method is more precise. Compared with the method that thesystem automatically cleans the filter device, the quantity of water consumed in the system running process is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the technical field of washing equipment, in particular, to a filter device for the drying air duct of a washing machine, a method for judging the clogging degree of the filter device, a cleaning method for the filter device, and a washing machine including the filter device . Background technique [0002] At present, most of the condensing phase change ends of the electric heating, washing and drying integrated drying duct are rear-mounted, and there is no good dander filtering solution for the time being, and some businesses do not use filtering directly. Because the drying system dries clothes for a long time, it will inevitably inhale clothes dander and thread ends, resulting in poor drying effect. In addition, dander, lint, etc. are accumulated and blocked in the entire air duct system, and the long-term cycle of baking will cause peculiar smell in the air duct, which will affect the user's washing and use, and ...
