Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of washing machine vibration dampers, and in particular relates to a washing machine vibration damper base structure. Background Art

[0002] A washing machine is a cleaning appliance that uses electrical energy to generate mechanical action to wash clothes. It can wash, rinse and dehydrate clothes, etc. It is a must-have electrical appliance in modern families. In the internal structure of the washing machine, a vibration absorber is often provided to reduce the vibration of the outer drum.

[0003] In the prior art, the shock absorber is installed on the shock absorber base, wherein the shock absorber base is fixed to the bottom support plate of the washing machine by a connection method of multiple screws. Before installing the screws, the operator needs to align the hole position of the shock absorber with the through hole on the bottom support plate to ensure that the two are on the same straight line, and then pass the threaded part of the screw through the through hole on the bottom support plate, and use an electric screwdriver to twist the screw into the hole position of the shock absorber base. This process requires accurate positioning and has certain operating difficulties for the operator. If the alignment is incorrect, there is a risk of the screw being deviated, causing the screw to slip and damage the shock absorber base or the bottom support plate. In addition, multiple repeated installation actions are required to install a shock absorber base in place, and the operation is cumbersome. Utility Model Content

[0012] As a preferred solution of the utility model, the shock absorber base is provided with a through hole for the shock absorber pin to pass through, and the through holes are provided with two holes and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the installation cavity.

[0013] The washing machine damper base structure provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:

[0014] During installation, first pass the rotating buckle through the buckle hole, and after rotating the rotating buckle to a preset angle, the rotating buckle can be against the bottom surface of the bottom support plate. At this time, the rotating buckle and the buckle hole are in a locked state, that is, the shock absorber base and the bottom support plate are in a locked state, thereby realizing the limit position in the Z-axis direction between the shock absorber base and the bottom support plate, and the setting of the rotating buckle can reduce the assembly difficulty and reduce the assembly time; at the same time, the limiting structure can also ensure the limit position in the X-axis and Y-axis directions between the shock absorber base and the bottom support plate, thereby preventing the rotating buckle from rotating and causing the shock absorber base to separate from the bottom support plate; the use of the utility model reduces the cumbersome installation process, saves installation time, and reduces production costs.

[0023] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0024] In the description of the present utility model, it should be understood that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "front", "back", "top", "bottom" and the like indicate positions or positional relationships based on the positions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present utility model. It should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are used in the present utility model to describe various information, but such information should not be limited to these terms, which are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the present utility model, the "first" information may also be referred to as the "second" information, and similarly, the "second" information may also be referred to as the "first" information.

[0025] like Figure 1 to Figure 2 As shown, a preferred embodiment of the utility model provides a structure of a vibration damper base 1 for a washing machine, which includes a vibration damper base 1 and a bottom support plate 2, a rotary lock 3 is fixedly provided at the bottom of the vibration damper base 1, a lock hole 4 is provided on the bottom support plate 2 for the rotary lock 3 to pass through, the rotary lock 3 can be abutted against the bottom surface of the bottom support plate 2 after rotating to a preset angle, and a limiting structure 5 is provided between the vibration damper base 1 and the bottom support plate 2.

[0026] During installation, first pass the rotating buckle through the buckle hole, and after rotating the rotating lock buckle 3 to a preset angle, the rotating lock buckle 3 can be against the bottom surface of the bottom support plate 2. At this time, the rotating lock buckle 3 and the lock buckle hole 4 are in a locked state, that is, the shock absorber base 1 and the bottom support plate 2 are in a locked state, thereby realizing the limit in the Z-axis direction between the shock absorber base 1 and the bottom support plate 2, and the setting of the rotating buckle can reduce the assembly difficulty and reduce the assembly time; at the same time, the limiting structure 5 can also ensure the limit in the X-axis and Y-axis directions between the shock absorber base 1 and the bottom support plate 2, thereby preventing the rotating buckle from rotating and causing the shock absorber base 1 to separate from the bottom support plate 2; the use of the utility model reduces the cumbersome installation process, saves installation time, and reduces production costs.

[0027] For example, Figures 3 to 5As shown, the limiting structure 5 includes a limiting buckle 501 provided on the shock absorber base 1 and a limiting hole 502 provided on the bottom support plate 2. It is understandable that, in specific use, the limiting buckle 501 can also be provided on the bottom support plate 2, and the limiting buckle 501 can also be provided on the shock absorber base 1.

[0028] Exemplarily, there are four limit buckles 501, and the four limit buckles 501 are arranged in a square. Therefore, when the shock absorber base 1 is installed, the four limit buckles 501 are all located in the limit holes 502. When the shock absorber base 1 is rotated, the limit buckles 501 rotate a certain angle to the adjacent limit holes 502, which ensures the connection between the shock absorber base 1 and the bottom support plate 2 and can also provide certain installation feedback, which is convenient for use.

[0029] Exemplarily, in order to facilitate installation, the rotary lock buckle 3 is provided with an installation hole 6 into which an installation tool can be inserted.

[0030] Exemplarily, the bottom support plate 2 is provided with an avoidance groove 7 for the vibration damper base 1 to rotate. Thus, it is possible to avoid collision between the vibration damper base 1 and the bottom support plate 2 during the rotation process, thereby extending the service life of the device.

[0031] It should also be noted that the shock absorber base 1 is provided with a mounting cavity 8 for mounting the shock absorber; the shock absorber base 1 is provided with a through hole 9 for the shock absorber pin to pass through, and two through holes 9 are provided and are respectively located on the left and right sides of the mounting cavity 8.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0033] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
