Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to a drying component of a clothing processing device and a clothing processing device. Background Art
[0002] The drying components of general drum washing machines and integrated dryers mainly include an upper shell, a lower shell, an impeller, a motor for driving the impeller, and a sealing ring for sealing the motor and the shell. The motor is generally arranged on the upper shell, the sealing ring is arranged between the motor and the upper shell, and the impeller is placed in the air duct surrounded by the upper and lower shells and connected to the motor. In the prior art, a sink extending into the air duct is usually arranged on the upper shell, and the motor is supported by the sink. As a part of the upper shell, the sink needs to occupy space in the air duct, which restricts the design size of the impeller and affects the air volume of the impeller. Under the condition of the same motor output power, the impeller with a smaller size will obviously have a smaller air volume than the impeller with a larger size. In other words, under the condition of the same air output, the impeller with a smaller size requires a larger motor power and a higher cost.

[0004] The shortcomings of the prior art are: since the fan, i.e., the motor and the impeller, need to be taken out from the fan mounting opening, the size of the fan mounting opening needs to be larger than the size of the impeller, and in order to connect and fix the fan relative to the fan mounting portion, the lateral size of the motor needs to be designed to be larger. At the same time, in order to ensure the fixation of the fan mounting portion and the motor, the fan mounting portion needs to reserve space for the installation of the motor, so that the lateral size of the first shell also needs to be expanded, resulting in a large overall space occupied by the fan duct in the washing machine. Summary of the invention
[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the utility model provides a drying component of a clothes processing device and a clothes processing device, which reduce the volume occupied by the drying component.
[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:
[0007] The drying component of a clothing processing device comprises an upper shell, a lower shell, a motor and a centrifugal impeller. The upper shell and the lower shell form a drying air duct. The centrifugal impeller is arranged in the drying air duct. A mounting hole is provided on the upper shell corresponding to the centrifugal impeller.

A mounting portion for connecting to the upper shell is provided on the outer side of the motor body. The projection of the mounting portion in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller is within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller.
[0008] In the drying assembly of the above-mentioned clothing processing device, the mounting portion includes a supporting boss and a connecting portion. The supporting boss is arranged to protrude relative to the motor body, and the connecting portion is located on the outside of the supporting boss. After one end of the motor body extends into the drying air duct, one side of the supporting boss abuts against the upper shell and the connecting portion is connected to the upper shell.
[0009] In the drying assembly of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, a sealing member is installed between the mounting portion and the upper shell around the mounting hole, and the projection of the sealing member in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller is located within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller.

[0016] A clothes processing device comprises the drying assembly of the clothes processing device mentioned above.
[0017] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the projection of the mounting portion of the utility model in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller is located within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller, and the mounting hole corresponds to the inner side of the mounting portion. Therefore, the projection of the mounting hole in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller is also located within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller. The wall surface of the upper shell corresponding to the impeller end face does not need to be expanded in size to provide an installation position for the connection of the mounting portion. The gap between the side wall of the drying air duct and the impeller can be reduced to a smaller size, thereby reducing the overall volume of the drying component, and the volume of the motor and the mounting portion can be reduced, saving the material cost of the shell and the cost of the motor.
[0019] The part of the motor body located in the drying air duct is directly exposed in the drying air duct. Compared with the method of using a shell to set a sink to support and wrap the motor body in the prior art, the shell saves some materials, and the thickness of the saved part of the shell can be used to expand the impeller size. The centrifugal impeller discharges air laterally, and the inner side of the blades in the centrifugal impeller can be closer to the motor body while meeting the safety distance, thereby expanding the lateral area of the blades, that is, expanding the blast area of the centrifugal impeller, and increasing the air volume of the centrifugal impeller. Since the blast area of the centrifugal impeller is increased, the power of the motor can be reduced under the same air volume, saving the cost of the motor.
[0020] In addition, since the projection of the mounting portion in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller is within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller, the volume of the motor is reduced, further providing space for the blades of the centrifugal impeller to expand inwardly of the centrifugal impeller, so that the blades of the centrifugal impeller can expand inwardly of the centrifugal impeller, thereby increasing the air volume of the centrifugal impeller.
[0021] The centrifugal impeller is directly assembled with the motor, with small cumulative tolerance, which improves production stability.
[0022] Furthermore, the mounting portion includes a supporting boss and a connecting portion, wherein the supporting boss is arranged to protrude relative to the motor body, and the connecting portion is located on the outside of the supporting boss, and after one end of the motor body extends into the drying air duct, one side of the supporting boss abuts against the upper shell, and the connecting portion is connected to the upper shell. The motor and the upper shell are supported by the supporting boss, and the motor body and the upper shell are fixed by the connection between the connecting portion and the upper shell, and the connection between the motor body and the upper shell is stable.
[0023] Furthermore, a seal is installed between the mounting portion and the upper shell around the mounting hole, and the projection of the seal in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller is within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller. The seal achieves reliable sealing between the mounting portion and the upper shell; the projection of the seal in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller is also within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller, and the size of the seal is small, which can reduce the cost of the seal. At the same time, since the length required for the seal to seal is reduced, it is easier to maintain the seal.
[0024] Furthermore, the mounting portion is located above the horizontal plane where the highest upper edge of the centrifugal impeller is located. The mounting portion does not intrude into the axial height position of the centrifugal impeller, thereby ensuring the axial height of the centrifugal impeller, especially the outer end thereof, and increasing the air volume as much as possible without increasing the lateral size of the centrifugal impeller.
[0025] Furthermore, at least one of the mounting portion and the upper housing is provided with a sealing portion, and the sealing member is provided on the sealing portion. The sealing member can be reliably provided through the sealing portion to ensure the sealing performance between the motor and the centrifugal impeller.
[0026] Furthermore, the sealing part is a groove structure for accommodating the sealing member or a protrusion structure for pressing the sealing member. The sealing member is designed as a groove structure for accommodating the sealing member or a protrusion structure for pressing the sealing member. The groove structure can accommodate and position the sealing member, and the protrusion structure can press the sealing member to achieve reliable compression of the sealing member and ensure the sealing effect of the sealing member.
[0027] Furthermore, the upper shell is provided with a thickened ring around the mounting hole, and the sealing member is arranged inside the thickened ring, so as to ensure the support effect of the upper shell, especially the mounting hole, on the motor and improve the strength of the mounting hole.
[0028] Furthermore, the centrifugal impeller includes a wheel portion connected to the motor shaft and blades arranged on the periphery of the wheel portion, and a windshield is sealed and connected to the side of the blade facing the motor body to separate the motor and the blade. The windshield can effectively separate the motor and the blade, reduce the impact of wind force on the operation of the motor, and prevent dust or debris from accumulating on the motor part due to the wind force generated by the blade.
[0029] Furthermore, the windshield includes a first windshield section that is spaced apart from the side of the motor body, and the seal is arranged close to or overlapped with the surface where the first windshield section is located. The first windshield section is opposite to the side of the motor body and is located close to the side of the motor body, so the position of the seal is also close to the side of the motor body, the structural integration is good, the size of the seal can be designed to be smaller, and the cost is saved.
[0030] The laundry processing device comprises the drying assembly of the laundry processing device. As the drying assembly is provided, the laundry processing device has all the technical effects of the drying assembly.

[0045] The following is an explanation and description of the technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiment of the utility model, but the following embodiment is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, not all. Based on the embodiment in the implementation mode, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are all within the protection scope of the utility model.

In addition, if the terms "first", "second", and "third" appear, they are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0047] Reference Figures 1 to 3A drying assembly of a clothing processing device proposed in one embodiment of the utility model comprises an upper shell 1, a lower shell 2, a motor 3 and a centrifugal impeller 4. The upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 form a drying air duct. The centrifugal impeller 4 is arranged in the drying air duct. A mounting hole 101 is provided on the upper shell 1 corresponding to the centrifugal impeller 4. The motor body 300 is mounted on the upper shell 1 and extends into the drying air duct through the mounting hole 101. The centrifugal impeller 4 is connected to the motor shaft 301. The part of the motor body 300 extending into the drying air duct is exposed in the drying air duct. A mounting portion 302 for connecting to the upper shell 1 is provided on the outer side of the motor body 300. The projection of the mounting portion 302 in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller 4 is located within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller 4.
[0048] The drying air duct enclosed by the upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 in this embodiment includes an air inlet 11, an impeller chamber 10 and an air outlet channel 12. The upper shell 1 and the lower shell 2 are combined to form a volute-shaped impeller chamber 10. The upper shell 1 is provided with a first arm 100 extending outward from the impeller chamber 10, and the lower shell 2 is provided with a second arm 200 extending outward from the impeller chamber 10. An air outlet channel 12 extending to one side of the centrifugal impeller 4 is formed between the first arm 100 and the second arm 200. The motor 3 is arranged on the upper shell 1, and the air inlet 11 is located on the lower shell 2 and corresponds to the centrifugal impeller 4 coaxially. When the motor 3 drives the centrifugal impeller 4 to rotate, the air inlet 11 enters the centrifugal impeller 4 along the axial direction, and then the airflow is centrifuged to flow out radially of the centrifugal impeller 4, and flows out from the air outlet channel 12 after being guided by the volute wall surface of the impeller chamber 10. A heating pipe 8 is arranged in the air outlet channel 12, and the heating pipe 8 heats the airflow. When the motor 3 rotates and drives the centrifugal impeller 4 to rotate, the centrifugal impeller 4 accelerates the axial airflow and transports it to the side of the air outlet channel 12. The heating tube 8 provides heat energy in the drying air channel to heat the airflow, and then the airflow flows out of the air outlet channel 12 to dry the clothes.
[0049] The motor body 300 refers to the overall structure formed by the motor 3 housing, the motor 3 stator and the motor 3 rotor. In this embodiment, "the part of the motor body 300 extending into the drying air duct is exposed in the drying air duct" means that the part of the motor body located in the drying air duct is directly opposite to the side of the impeller facing the motor in the impeller cavity, and there is no obstruction between the motor body and the impeller, eliminating the occupation of the inner space of the impeller by the obstruction part.
[0050] In the prior art, a barrel-shaped sinker is provided at the position of the mounting hole 101 of the upper shell 1 to cover and support the motor 3. The sinker has a certain thickness. In order to avoid the sinker, a larger gap needs to be provided on the inner circumference of the centrifugal impeller 4 to avoid it. In order to ensure the wind force of the centrifugal impeller 4, the height or lateral dimension of the centrifugal impeller 4 needs to be increased, resulting in an increase in the space occupied by the drying component. However, the motor body 300 of the present application is directly exposed to the drying air duct, so that the support part is omitted, and the inner circumference of the centrifugal impeller 4 can be closer to the motor body 300. While ensuring the same air volume, compared with the prior art, the lateral dimension or height dimension of the centrifugal impeller 4 can be reduced, thereby reducing the space occupied by the drying component, which helps to save the material cost of the drying component.
[0051] The projection of the mounting portion 302 of the utility model in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller 4 is located within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller 4, and the mounting hole 101 corresponds to the inner side of the mounting portion 302, so the projection of the mounting hole 101 in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller 4 is also located within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller 4, and the wall surface of the upper shell 1 corresponding to the end surface of the centrifugal impeller 4, that is, the transverse wall surface, does not need to expand the transverse dimension to provide a mounting position for the connection of the mounting portion 302, and the gap between the side wall of the impeller cavity and the centrifugal impeller 4 can be reduced to a smaller size, so that the overall volume of the drying component is reduced, and the volume of the motor 3 and the mounting portion 302 can be reduced, saving the material cost of the upper shell and the lower shell and the cost of the motor. When the volume of the motor 3 is reduced, the space formed by this part can be used for further expansion of the inner side of the centrifugal impeller 4, expanding the blast area of the centrifugal impeller 4, and the blast area of the centrifugal impeller 4 here refers to the radial area of the centrifugal impeller 4 where the blades 402 in the centrifugal impeller 4 correspond to the blades 402, thereby expanding the air volume.
[0052] As a drying component of a clothing processing device proposed in one of the embodiments of the utility model, the centrifugal impeller 4 includes a wheel portion 401 connected to the motor shaft 301 and blades 402 arranged on the periphery of the wheel portion 401. The motor shaft 301 extends into the wheel portion 401 to form a fastening connection to drive the wheel portion 401 to rotate. When the motor 3 is running, the wheel portion 401 of the centrifugal impeller 4 with the motor shaft 301 extending into the wheel portion 401 will rotate due to the motor shaft 301 of the motor 3. At this time, the blades 402 arranged on the periphery of the wheel portion 401 will accelerate the axial airflow in the wheel portion 401 and transport it to the side of the air outlet channel 12. At the same time, in order to prevent the wind force generated by the blades 402 from affecting the motor 3, a wind shield is sealedly connected to the side of the blades 402 facing the motor 3. The wind shield can effectively separate the motor 3 and the blades 402, reduce the influence of the wind force on the operation of the motor 3, and the wind shield can prevent dust or debris from accumulating on the motor 3 due to the wind force generated by the blades 402.
[0053] The centrifugal impeller 4 is built with a mounting groove for accommodating the motor body 300 located in the inner part of the drying air duct, and a windshield is arranged along the surface of the mounting inner groove. The windshield includes a second windshield section 602 opposite to the end face of the motor body 300 and a first windshield section 601 opposite to the side face of the motor body 300. The first windshield section 601 and the second windshield section 602 are also provided with a transition section 603 connecting the two. The outer end of the first windshield section 601 is provided with a fourth windshield section 604, and the fourth windshield section 604 is arranged opposite to the wall surface of the upper shell 1 around the mounting hole 101. The blade 402 is arranged on the fourth windshield section 604, and the end of the blade 402 away from the fourth windshield section is fixedly connected with an annular plate to fix the blade 402. There is a smooth transition between the first windshield section 601 and the fourth windshield section 604, a smooth transition between the second windshield section 602 and the transition section 603, and a smooth transition between the first windshield section 601 and the transition section 603. By cooperating with the wall surface around the mounting hole 101 through the fourth windshield section 604, there will be no scratches or collisions at sharp angles. In this embodiment, the sealing ring 5 is overlapped with the surface where the first windshield section 601 is located; since the first windshield section 601 is opposite to the side of the motor 3 and is close to the side of the motor 3, the position of the sealing ring 5 is also close to the side of the motor 3, the structural integration is good, the size of the sealing ring 5 can be designed to be smaller, and the cost is saved; of course, in other embodiments, the sealing ring 5 can be set at a position close to the surface where the first windshield section 601 is located. The second windshield section 602 is assembled with the motor shaft 301 by bolt compression, and two clamping plates are set on the motor shaft 301 to complete the clamping of the second windshield section.
[0054] As a drying assembly of a clothing processing device proposed in one of the embodiments of the present utility model, the mounting portion 302 and the upper housing 1 are provided with a sealing portion 7, wherein the sealing portion 7 of the upper housing 1 is a groove structure 71 that is recessed inwardly and surrounds the mounting hole 101, and the groove structure 71 is located on the side of the upper housing 1 that is away from the centrifugal impeller 4, and is recessed toward the side where the centrifugal impeller 4 is located. The sealing portion 7 of the mounting portion 302 is a convex ring structure 72 that surrounds the mounting hole 101 and cooperates with the groove structure 71. When the user assembles the motor 3 and the upper housing 1, the sealing ring 5 is first placed in the groove structure 71, and then the connecting portion 304 is fixedly connected to the upper housing 1 by means of bolts. At this time, the motor body 300 partially extends into the drying air duct, and the convex ring structure 72 and the groove structure 71 are pressed and matched to achieve clamping of the sealing ring 5, so that the sealing ring 5 has a good sealing effect.
[0055] As a simple replacement for the above technical solution, the sealing portion 7 is a groove arranged on the relative wall surfaces of the mounting portion 302 and the upper shell 1. When the motor 3 is fixedly connected to the upper shell 1, the sealing ring 5 is accommodated and compressed by the groove, so that the sealing ring 5 is fixed at the connection between the upper shell 1 and the motor 3 to achieve a sealing effect.
[0056] As a simple replacement for the above technical solution, the groove is located on any one of the opposite walls of the mounting portion 302 and the upper shell 1, and the other wall is a plane or a convex structure.
[0057] As a drying assembly of a clothes processing device proposed in one embodiment of the present invention, a seal is installed between the mounting portion 302 and the upper shell 1 around the mounting hole 101. The projection of the seal in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller 4 is located within the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller 4. The mounting portion 302 includes a supporting boss 303 and a connecting portion 304, the supporting boss 303 is convexly arranged relative to the motor body 300, and the connecting portion 304 is located on the outside of the supporting boss 303. After one end of the motor body 300 extends into the drying air duct, one side of the supporting boss 303 abuts against the upper shell 1 and the connecting portion 304 is connected to the upper shell 1. In this embodiment, the connection part 304 is three bosses arranged in a cylindrical array around the motor shaft 301, and the upper shell 1 is provided with a boss 305 that is plugged into the boss, and the boss is provided with a blind hole that matches the boss 305. When the bolt connects the boss 305, the bolt and the boss 305 clamp the boss, and the support shoulder 303 cooperates with the upper shell 1 to press the seal, so as to achieve relative fixation of the motor body 300 and the upper shell 1. In this embodiment, the sealing part 7 on the mounting part 302 corresponds to the side of the supporting shoulder 303. When the supporting shoulder 303 and the upper shell 1 are connected, the seal between the mounting part 302 and the upper shell 1 is pressed at the same time.
[0058] Furthermore, the mounting portion is located above the horizontal plane where the highest upper edge of the centrifugal impeller is located. Figure 2 As shown, the horizontal plane A corresponding to the dotted line A is the horizontal plane where the highest upper edge of the centrifugal impeller is located. The mounting portion and the seal under the mounting portion are both located above the horizontal plane A, which can avoid the sealing portion 7 and the mounting portion occupying the space in the axial direction of the impeller, further expanding the swept area of the centrifugal impeller.
[0059] In this embodiment, the projection of the connecting portion 304 in the axial direction of the centrifugal impeller 4 is located inside the axial projection range of the centrifugal impeller 4, so that the connecting portion 304 is closer to the motor shaft 301 than the outer periphery of the centrifugal impeller 4, and the lateral dimension of the motor 3 is designed to be smaller, thereby reducing the cost of the motor 3; of course, in other embodiments, the number of connecting portions 304 may also be two, four, etc.
[0060] In order to improve the strength of the mounting hole 101 and ensure the supporting effect of the upper shell 1 on the motor 3, the upper shell 1 is provided with a thickening ring 102 around the mounting hole 101, and the thickening ring 102 is located above the centrifugal impeller 4, and the seal and the sealing part 7 are both arranged in the thickening ring 102; the thickening ring 102 is used to ensure the supporting effect of the upper shell 1, especially the mounting hole 101, on the motor 3, thereby improving the strength of the mounting hole 101; the seal serves as a buffer component attached to the contact position between the motor 3 and the mounting hole 101, which can avoid the direct effect of the motor 3 on the edge of the mounting hole 101, thereby further extending the service life of the mounting hole 101.
[0061] As a simple replacement for the above technical solution, the motor 3 is fixed to the upper shell 1 in the form of a snap connection. A snap-fitting protrusion protruding outward is provided on the supporting shoulder of the motor 3, and a snap-fitting groove is provided on the upper shell 1. Through the cooperation between the snap-fitting protrusion and the snap-fitting groove, a fixed connection between the upper shell 1 and the motor 3 is achieved.
[0062] A clothing processing device includes the drying component of the above-mentioned clothing processing device. Since the drying component of any of the above-mentioned technical solutions is set, the clothing processing device drives the centrifugal impeller 4 to rotate through the motor 3 in the drying component, and continuously delivers airflow to the place where the clothes are placed inside the clothing processing device. During this period, due to the action of the heating pipe 8 inside the drying component, the airflow delivered to the place where the clothes are placed will be heated in the drying channel, so that the place where the clothes are placed is filled with recyclable hot air, thereby drying the clothes.
[0063] The above are only specific embodiments of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention includes but is not limited to the contents described in the drawings and the above specific embodiments.
