For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0056] Reference Figures 1 to 14 , a specific preferred implementation manner of the utility model is described.

[0057] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the washer-dryer of the present invention includes a housing 1, a drum module 2 (also referred to as an outer drum or a washing drum) and a drying system arranged in the housing 1. The drying system can supply hot air to the drum module 2 to dry the clothes.

[0058] Preferably, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the drying system of the utility model includes a drying air duct, a heat pump module and a fan 32. The drum module is provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The two ends of the drying air duct are respectively connected to the air inlet and the air outlet. The heat pump module includes an evaporator and a condenser installed in the drying air duct. The evaporator is located upstream of the condenser. Under the action of the fan 32, the airflow can circulate in the drying air duct and the drum module, and exchange heat with the evaporator and the condenser when flowing through the evaporator and the condenser.

[0059] Preferably, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the drying air duct of the utility model includes a first drying air duct 31 and a second drying air duct 33. The first drying air duct 31, the fan 32 and the second drying air duct 33 are connected in sequence. The evaporator 34 is arranged in the first drying air duct 31, and the condenser 35 is arranged in the second drying air duct 33. The first drying air duct 31 is connected to the air outlet on the drum module 2, and the second drying air duct 33 is connected to the air inlet on the drum module 2.

[0060] In the present embodiment, the hot and humid air in the drum module 2 circulates under the action of the fan 32, enters the first drying air duct 31, the second drying air duct 33, and the air inlet into the drum module 2 in sequence through the air outlet on the drum module 2, and under the action of the evaporator 34, the moisture in the hot and humid air is condensed and separated from the airflow, and under the action of the condenser 35, the temperature of the air is increased to supply hot air to the drum module 2, thereby drying the clothes in the drum module 2, and then drying the clothes.

[0061] It should be noted that the drying air duct of the present invention is not limited to the two-stage structure described above. Those skilled in the art can also set the drying air duct as a whole-stage structure in actual application. In this case, the fan can be installed on the air outlet or the air inlet, and then the fan is connected to the air inlet or the air outlet through the drying air duct. Of course, the present invention preferably sets the drying air duct as the first drying air duct and the second drying air duct described above, and the fan is set between the first drying air duct and the second drying air duct.

[0062] In addition, it should be noted that those skilled in the art may also replace the heat pump module with an electric heating device, etc. Such flexible adjustments and changes do not deviate from the principle and scope of the present utility model and should be limited within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0063] Preferably, if Figure 1 As shown, the first drying air duct 31 , the fan 32 and the second drying air duct 33 are all arranged above the drum module 2 .

[0064] Preferably, the heat pump module of the present invention further includes a compressor (not shown in the figure), which is arranged below the cylinder module 2 .

[0065] Exemplarily, the compressor is vertically arranged at the lower left of the barrel module 2. Of course, the compressor can also be horizontally arranged as long as it can be installed in the lower space between the barrel module 2 and the box body 1. The compressor, evaporator 34 and condenser 35 are connected to each other to form a refrigerant circulation loop. The refrigerant exchanges heat with the hot and humid air flowing through the evaporator 34, which can condense the moisture in the hot and humid air and separate it from the airflow. The refrigerant exchanges heat with the air flowing through the condenser 35, which can increase the temperature of the air, thereby supplying hot air to the barrel module 2.

[0066] Preferably, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the first drying air duct 31 includes a return air duct 311 and a first heat exchange air duct 312 which are connected. The return air duct 311 and the first heat exchange air duct 312 are arranged at the upper rear of the barrel module 2, that is, close to the rear end of the barrel module 2. The evaporator 34 is arranged in the first heat exchange air duct 312. The air outlet is arranged at the upper rear of the barrel module 2, that is, the air outlet is also arranged close to the rear end of the barrel module 2, so as to facilitate the return air duct 311 to be connected with the air outlet. The first heat exchange air duct 312 extends in the horizontal direction, and the extension direction of the first heat exchange air duct 312 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the barrel module 2.

[0067] The return air duct 311 and the first heat exchange air duct 312 are preferably configured to be detachably fixedly connected.

[0068] Furthermore, if Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the second drying air duct 33 includes a second heat exchange air duct 331 and an air outlet air duct 332 that are connected. The air outlet air duct 332 and the second heat exchange air duct 331 are arranged at the upper left or upper right of the barrel module 2. The condenser 35 is arranged in the second heat exchange air duct 331. The air inlet is arranged at the upper front of the barrel module 2, that is, the air inlet is arranged close to the front end of the barrel module 2, and the air outlet air duct 332 is connected to the air inlet. The second heat exchange air duct 331 also extends in the horizontal direction, and the extension direction of the second heat exchange air duct 331 is parallel to the axial direction of the barrel module 2, that is, the extension direction of the second heat exchange air duct 331 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the first heat exchange air duct 312, and the two heat exchange air ducts are arranged in an approximately L shape.

[0069] The second heat exchange air duct 331 and the air outlet air duct 332 are preferably configured to be detachably fixedly connected.

[0070] This embodiment is aimed at the structural characteristics of the space above the drum module 2 in the box body 1. Specifically, taking a drum-type washer-dryer as an example, a clothes treatment agent delivery box generally needs to be set in the front space of the upper left, and accordingly, there is a certain amount of free space in the upper back and upper right. Therefore, the washer-dryer of this embodiment sets the first drying air duct 31 in the upper back space, the second drying air duct 33 in the upper right, and the fan 32 between the first drying air duct 31 and the second drying air duct 33, located at the upper right corner, according to the characteristics of the internal space of the box body 1. From the perspective of the overall layout, the first drying air duct 31, the fan 32, and the second drying air duct 33 are vertically distributed as a whole, which can maximize the use of free space and ensure that the height of the whole washer-dryer remains unchanged.

[0071] It should be noted that the front end of the drum module 2 has a clothing access port, and those skilled in the art may use the clothing access port as an air inlet, even if the air outlet duct 332 is connected to the clothing access port. Alternatively, a separate air port may be opened above the front end of the drum module 2 as an air inlet. Such adjustments and changes to the specific setting form of the air inlet do not deviate from the principle and scope of the present utility model, and should be limited within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0072] Furthermore, in order to improve the heat exchange efficiency as much as possible within a limited space and ensure the drying effect, it is necessary to increase the heat exchange body of the evaporator 34 and the condenser 35 as much as possible. Therefore, the first heat exchange duct 312 and the second heat exchange duct 331 have an external contour adapted to the space in which they are located, so that the heat exchange body of the evaporator 34 accommodated in the first heat exchange duct 312 and the heat exchange body of the condenser 35 accommodated in the second heat exchange duct 331 can be increased as much as possible.

[0073] Specifically, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the first heat exchange air duct 312 is arranged at the upper rear of the barrel module 2, approximately at the middle position of the barrel module 2, and because the barrel module 2 is a cylindrical structure, it is approximately in a plane at the middle position of the cylindrical structure, so the first heat exchange air duct 312 is approximately a rectangular structure, that is, the first heat exchange air duct 312 is approximately flat, and the cross section is approximately rectangular. Accordingly, the heat exchange body of the evaporator 34 inside it is arranged in a regular rectangular shape. The second heat exchange air duct 331 is arranged at the upper right of the barrel module 2. In order to adapt to the cylindrical structure of the barrel module 2 and make full use of this part of the space, the second heat exchange air duct 331 is set to a non-rectangular structure, that is, in this part of the space, the second heat exchange air duct 331 is set to a "7"-shaped structure, that is, a structure that is wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, and the surface of the second heat exchange air duct 331 close to the barrel module 2 is set to an inner concave arc surface, and the inner concave arc surface is coaxial with the barrel module 2. Accordingly, the heat exchange body of the condenser 35 inside it is also arranged in a "7"-shaped structure.

[0074] It should be noted that the shapes of the first heat exchange duct 312 and the second heat exchange duct 331 described above and the arrangement shapes of the heat exchange bodies corresponding to the evaporators 34 and condensers 35 respectively arranged therein are only exemplary. Those skilled in the art may also make arrangements in other shapes according to actual conditions. As long as the space between the box body 1 and the barrel module 2 can be fully utilized, the bottom contour of the first heat exchange duct 312 and the second heat exchange duct 331 can match the barrel wall contour of the barrel module 2, and the heat exchange body inside the heat exchange duct can maximize the heat exchange efficiency, the present invention does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0075] Furthermore, the fan 32 is arranged at the upper right corner. In order to make full use of this part of the space, the fan 32 is arranged vertically, and the central axis of the air intake port of the fan 32 (that is, the axis of the impeller of the fan 32) extends horizontally along the transverse direction of the box body 1, that is, perpendicular to the axial direction of the barrel module 2, and the central axis of the air outlet of the fan 32 (the central axis of the air outlet of the fan 32 is perpendicular to the axis of the impeller of the fan 32) extends horizontally along the longitudinal direction of the box body 1, that is, parallel to the axial direction of the barrel module 2. In other words, the extension direction of the central axis of the air intake port of the fan 32 is The extension direction is the same as that of the first heat exchange air duct 312, the extension direction of the central axis of the exhaust port of the fan 32 is the same as that of the second heat exchange air duct 331, the first drying air duct 31 is connected with the air intake port of the fan 32, and the second drying air duct 33 is connected with the exhaust port of the fan 32. In this way, the first drying air duct 31 and the second drying air duct 33 are relatively vertically distributed with the fan 32 as the center, which can maximize the use of the free space between the box body 1 and the drum module 2, so as to further ensure that the overall height size of the washer-dryer remains unchanged.

[0076] In addition, the return air duct 311 and the outlet air duct 332 are also arranged in a manner that can fully utilize the space between the box body 1 and the cylinder module 2. Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the return air duct 311 and the outlet air duct 332 are both configured as bent structures, and the surface close to the barrel module 2 is configured as an inner concave arc surface, which is compatible with the barrel wall surface of the barrel module 2. Among them, the return air duct 311 and the outlet air duct 332 are preferably made of flexible materials, such as rubber tubes.

[0077] Furthermore, the return air duct 311, the first heat exchange air duct 312, the fan 32, the second heat exchange air duct 331 and the air outlet duct 332 are all spaced apart from the barrel wall of the barrel module 2 to ensure a safe distance from the barrel module 2, thereby ensuring their respective normal operation.

[0078] Preferably, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first drying air duct 31 of the utility model further includes a first connecting air duct 313, a first end of the first connecting air duct 313 is connected to the first heat exchange air duct 312, and a second end of the first connecting air duct 313 is connected to the air suction port of the fan 32. The caliber of the first connecting air duct 313 gradually narrows from the first end of the first connecting air duct 313 to the second end of the first connecting air duct 313, so that the air can be gathered to the air suction port of the fan 32.

[0079] The extension direction of the first connecting air duct 313 is consistent with the extension direction of the first heat exchange air duct 312. It should be noted that the first connecting air duct 313 and the first heat exchange air duct 312 can be fixedly connected, or can also be integrally arranged.

[0080] Preferably, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second drying air duct 33 of the utility model further includes a second connecting air duct 333, a first end of the second connecting air duct 333 is connected to the exhaust port of the fan 32, and a second end of the second connecting air duct 333 is connected to the second heat exchange air duct 331. The caliber of the second connecting air duct 333 gradually widens from the first end of the second connecting air duct 333 to the second end of the second connecting air duct 333, so that the air flowing out of the exhaust port of the fan 32 can diffuse into the second heat exchange air duct 331.

[0081] The extension direction of the second connecting air duct 333 is consistent with the extension direction of the second heat exchange air duct 331. It should be noted that the second connecting air duct 333 and the second heat exchange air duct 331 can be fixedly connected, or can also be integrally arranged.

[0082] Furthermore, if Figure 3As shown, the drying system of the present invention further includes a flow guiding structure 3331 disposed in the second drying air duct 33 , and the flow guiding structure 3331 is located upstream of the condenser 35 .

[0083] Exemplarily, the guide structure 3331 is arranged in the second connecting air duct 333. The guide structure 3331 has a guiding effect on the air, so that the air flowing out through the exhaust port of the fan 32 can be evenly diffused into the second heat exchange air duct 331, so that the air can flow evenly through the condenser 35, avoiding the air from gathering in a certain area of ​​the condenser 35, realizing uniform heat exchange, and ensuring heat exchange efficiency.

[0084] Preferably, if Figure 3 As shown, the flow guiding structure 3331 is configured as a plate-like structure.

[0085] The guide structure 3331 extends from the air inlet end of the second connecting air duct 333 to the windward end surface of the condenser 35 .

[0086] It should be noted that each flow guiding structure 3331 may be a curved plate-like structure or a straight plate-like structure.

[0087] Preferably, if Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of guide structures 3331 are provided in the second connecting air duct 333. The plurality of guide structures 3331 are spaced apart along a flow direction perpendicular to the airflow. The plurality of guide structures 3331 divide the interior of the second connecting air duct 333 into a plurality of guide channels. The airflow flowing out through the exhaust port of the fan 32 can flow through the heat exchange body of the condenser 35 through each guide channel respectively to perform uniform heat exchange.

[0088] For example, Figure 3 As shown, there are two guide structures 3331 , and the two guide structures 3331 divide the interior of the second connecting air duct 333 into three guide channels.

[0089] Preferably, if Figure 3 As shown, the first drying air duct 31 of the utility model is provided with a fresh air inlet 3122 , and the fresh air inlet 3122 is located between the evaporator 34 and the fan 32 .

[0090] By setting a fresh air inlet 3122 on the first drying air duct 31, external dry fresh air can be introduced during the drying process, which is beneficial to improving the drying efficiency. In addition, by setting the fresh air inlet 3122 between the evaporator 34 and the fan 32, more fresh air can be introduced, and the temperature of the incoming fresh air will not be affected by the temperature of the evaporator 34, which is more beneficial to improving the drying efficiency.

[0091] For example, Figure 3As shown, the fresh air inlet 3122 is disposed on the first connecting air duct 313. Of course, those skilled in the art may also dispose the fresh air inlet 3122 on the first heat exchange air duct 312.

Fresh air continuously enters from the fresh air inlet 3122, and part of the airflow will be discharged from the fresh air outlet 3321 to avoid the danger of excessive air pressure in the drum module 2. In addition, by setting the fresh air outlet 3321 downstream of the condenser 35, wind resistance can be reduced and assembly is facilitated.

[0121] When the filter device 4 needs to be cleaned, the user can directly pull out the bracket of the filter device 4 and the second filter screen and the third filter screen on the bracket from the second plug interface 11. After cleaning, the bracket of the filter device 4 and the second filter screen and the third filter screen on the bracket are passed through the second plug interface 11 and the first plug interface 3121 in turn and extended into the drying air duct.

[0125] The second filter and the third filter are used to filter the air flow in the first drying air duct 31 and intercept impurities such as lint carried by the air flow. By arranging plug interfaces on the box body 1 and the first drying air duct 31, when the second filter and the third filter need to be cleaned, the second filter and the third filter can be pulled out from the first drying air duct 31 and the box body 1. In addition, by arranging the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42 to be detachably connected, after the first bracket 41 is pulled out, the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42 are disassembled, and then the second bracket 42 is pulled out, the required disassembly space can be reduced, which is convenient for users to disassemble and also convenient for cleaning the filter on the second bracket 42.

The extension direction of the filter device 4 is parallel to the axis of the drum module 2. In this way, the user can pull out the second filter and the third filter from the front side of the washer-dryer, which is more convenient.

[0127] Preferably, if Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the filtering device 4 of the utility model also includes a locking pin 44, which is installed on the first bracket 41. The locking pin 44 is provided with a first locking structure 441, and the second bracket 42 is provided with a second locking structure 4221. When the locking pin 44 is in the locked position, the first locking structure 441 cooperates with the second locking structure 4221 to lock the second bracket 42 with the first bracket 41. When the locking pin 44 is in the unlocked position, the first locking structure 441 is separated from the second locking structure 4221 so as to disassemble and separate the second bracket 42 from the first bracket 41.

[0128] Exemplarily, a vertically extending accommodating cavity (not shown in the figure) is provided on the first bracket 41, and the top of the accommodating cavity is open. The locking pin 44 is installed in the accommodating cavity and can move up and down in the vertical direction to switch between the locked position and the unlocked position. The first locking structure 441 includes two locking hooks, and the two locking hooks are spaced apart in the vertical direction. The second locking structure 4221 includes two locking holes arranged at the end of the second bracket 42, and the locking holes are adapted to the locking hooks.

Under the action of the reset spring, the two locking hooks are respectively inserted into the corresponding locking holes to lock the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42. When the two brackets need to be disassembled, the locking pin 44 is pressed downward to separate the locking hook from the locking hole, so that the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42 can be disassembled.

[0129] It should be noted that the first locking structure 441 and the second locking structure 4221 are not limited to the structure of the lock hook and the lock hole described above. For example, they can also be set as two opposite lock hooks, etc. Such adjustments and changes to the specific structural forms of the first locking structure 441 and the second locking structure 4221 do not deviate from the principle and scope of the present utility model, and should be limited within the protection scope of the present utility model.

The second filter and the third filter are arranged in sequence along the flow direction of the airflow. The airflow first flows through the second filter for coarse filtration, and then flows through the third filter for fine filtration, so the filtering effect is better. In addition, by pivotally connecting the third filter frame 421 with the second filter frame 422, it is convenient to clean the third filter and the second filter.

[0132] For example, Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the second locking structure 4221 is arranged at the first end of the second filter frame 422, and the end face of the first bracket 41 close to the second bracket 42 has a socket (not shown in the figure), the first end of the second filter frame 422 passes through the socket and extends into the first bracket 41, and the second end of the third filter frame 421 does not pass through the socket, and the second end of the third filter frame 421 is located on the outside of the first bracket 41, that is, the length of the third filter frame 421 is less than the length of the second filter frame 422.

[0135] By making the cylindrical structure 4211 on the third filter frame 421 fit with the arc surface 4223 on the second filter frame 422, it is more conducive to blocking impurities such as wire scraps and improving the filtering effect.

[0136] Exemplarily, the first connecting structure 4212 is a connecting shaft, a connecting shaft is respectively set at the top and bottom ends of the cylindrical structure 4211, and the second connecting structure 4222 is a connecting hole. The two connecting shafts are respectively located in the corresponding connecting holes and can rotate in the connecting holes, thereby realizing the pivot connection between the third filter frame 421 and the second filter frame 422.

[0137] It should be noted that, in practical applications, those skilled in the art may also set the first connection structure 4212 as a connection hole, and correspondingly set the second connection structure 4222 as a connection shaft.

[0141] By providing the strip-shaped convex rib 4213 on the third filter frame 421 to fit with the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 4224 on the second filter frame 422, it is more conducive to blocking impurities such as wire scraps, and further improves the filtering effect.

Alternatively, the first bracket 41 and the second bracket 42 may be completely canceled. In this case, the filter may be directly fixed in the drying duct, etc. These sub-preferred implementations are also within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0146] By setting up a flushing device, each filter can be flushed regularly to avoid the situation where wire scraps are not cleaned in time. In addition, it can also reduce the number of times users disassemble and clean the filter, thereby improving the user experience.

[0147] Preferably, if Figures 11 to 14 As shown, the flushing device of the present invention comprises a first flushing mechanism and a second flushing mechanism. The first flushing mechanism can flush the first filter screen 46, and the second flushing mechanism can flush the third filter screen and / or the second filter screen.

[0148] By providing two flushing mechanisms, it is convenient to independently control the amount of wire scraps on each filter screen.

For example, a person skilled in the art may set the flushing filter channel as an integral long channel extending along the length direction of the water spray chamber, or may set the flushing filter channel to include multiple columnar channels, and so on.

[0156] In addition, it should be noted that, in actual applications, technicians in this field can configure the second flushing mechanism to spray water only toward the third filter, or only toward the second filter, or both toward the third filter and the second filter.

[0157] Preferably, if Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the flushing filter channel includes a first flushing filter channel 53 and a second flushing filter channel 54, and the water spray chamber includes a first water spray chamber 51 and a second water spray chamber 52 separated from each other.

The top end of the second flushing filter channel 54 is connected to the second water spray chamber 52, and the bottom end of the second flushing filter channel 54 faces the second filter.

[0158] That is to say, the first water spraying chamber 51 and the second water spraying chamber 52 are not connected, so that the first flushing filter channel 53 and the second flushing filter channel 54 can spray water separately.

[0159] Exemplarily, a partition structure 58 is provided in the water spray chamber, and the partition structure 58 divides the water spray chamber into a first water spray chamber 51 and a second water spray chamber 52. The first water spray chamber 51 and the second water spray chamber 52 are distributed along the width direction of the water spray chamber.

In addition, a water source may be respectively configured for the first water spray chamber 51 and the second water spray chamber 52, or the same water source may be used and an independent water pump may be respectively configured, etc. Such flexible adjustments and changes do not deviate from the principle and scope of the utility model and should be limited within the protection scope of the utility model.

[0161] In addition, it should be noted that in order to make it easier to see the structure inside the water spray chamber, Figures 11 to 13 The cover body on the top of the water spray chamber is not shown. In addition, the first drying air duct 31 is composed of an upper part and a lower part, and the second flushing mechanism is arranged in the upper part. Figures 11 to 13Only the upper part of the first drying air duct 31 is shown.

[0168] Preferably, if Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the cross-sectional area of ​​the flushing filter channel gradually decreases in the direction away from its top end.

[0169] That is to say, the cross-sectional area of ​​the flushing filter channel gradually decreases from the top end to the bottom end of the flushing filter channel, so that the injection speed of the water flow can be increased, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the second flushing mechanism.

[0170] It should be noted that, when the flushing filter channel includes the first flushing filter channel 53 and the second flushing filter channel 54, only the cross-sectional area of ​​the first flushing filter channel 53 can be gradually reduced in the direction away from its top, or only the cross-sectional area of ​​the second flushing filter channel 54 can be gradually reduced in the direction away from its top, or both the cross-sectional area of ​​the first flushing filter channel 53 and the cross-sectional area of ​​the second flushing filter channel 54 can be gradually reduced in the direction away from their top.

[0172] Exemplarily, the third filter and / or the second filter are vertically arranged, and the filter surface is also vertical. The angle between the extension line of the flushing filter channel and the filter surface is the angle between the extension line of the flushing filter channel and the vertical plane. By limiting this angle, the cleaning area of ​​the second flushing mechanism can be guaranteed. The smaller the angle, the larger the cleaning area of ​​the second flushing mechanism.

[0173] For example, those skilled in the art can set the angle between the extension line of the flushing filter channel and the filter surface of the filter device to 1°, 2°, 3°, 4°, 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9° or 10°. Further preferably, the angle between the extension line of the flushing filter channel and the vertical plane is not greater than 5°.

[0174] It should be noted that, when the flushing filter channel includes the first flushing filter channel 53 and the second flushing filter channel 54, the angle between the first flushing filter channel 53 and the filtering surface of the filtering device along the extension line can be no greater than 10°, or the angle between the second flushing filter channel 54 and the filtering surface of the filtering device along the extension line can be no greater than 10°, or the angle between the first flushing filter channel 53 and the second flushing filter channel 54 and the filtering surface of the filtering device along the extension line can be no greater than 10°.

[0175] Preferably, if Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the second flushing mechanism also includes a flushing evaporator channel 55 arranged on the drying air duct, the top end of the flushing evaporator channel 55 is connected to the water spray chamber, and the bottom end of the flushing evaporator channel 55 faces the windward surface of the evaporator 34.

[0176] The top end of the flushing evaporator channel 55 is connected to the first water spray chamber 51 .

[0177] Preferably, if Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the angle between the extended line of the flushing evaporator channel 55 and the windward surface of the evaporator is not greater than 10°.

[0178] Exemplarily, the windward surface of the evaporator is vertically arranged, and the angle between the extension line of the flushing evaporator channel 55 and the windward surface is the angle between the extension line of the flushing evaporator channel 55 and the vertical plane. By limiting this angle, the cleaning area of ​​the second flushing mechanism can be guaranteed. The smaller the angle, the larger the cleaning area of ​​the second flushing mechanism.

[0179] For example, those skilled in the art can set the angle between the extension line of the flushing evaporator channel 55 and the windward surface of the evaporator to 1°, 2°, 3°, 4°, 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9° or 10°. Further preferably, the angle between the extension line of the flushing evaporator channel 55 and the vertical plane is not greater than 5°.

[0180] Preferably, if Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the flushing evaporator channel 55 is cylindrical and there are multiple of them, and the multiple flushing evaporator channels 55 are distributed at intervals along the length direction of the water spray chamber.

[0181] That is, a plurality of flushing evaporator channels 55 are spaced apart and distributed along the length direction of the first water spraying chamber 51 , and the flushing evaporator channels 55 are columnar.

[0182] The cross section of the flushing evaporator channel 55 may be circular, square, rectangular, elliptical, or the like.

[0183] Preferably, if Figures 11 to 13 As shown, the cross-sectional area of ​​the flushing evaporator channel 55 gradually decreases in a direction away from the top end thereof.

[0184] That is to say, the cross-sectional area of ​​the flushing evaporator channel 55 gradually decreases from the top end to the bottom end of the flushing evaporator channel 55, so that the injection speed of the water flow can be increased, thereby improving the cleaning effect of the second flushing mechanism.
