A buffer box is provided between the delivery chamber 12 and the outer barrel cover, for being communicated with the delivery chamber 12 and the outer barrel cover respectively. A protrusion extending towards an interior of the buffer box is provided on a sidewall of the buffer box, and the protrusion is inclined from a top of the buffer box to the water hole at a bottom of the buffer box to form a basin shape. The protrusion is used to buffer the flow rate of water and release the pressure, water evenly flows into the gap the inner barrel and the outer barrel through the water hole at the bottom of the buffer box to prevent from splashing. As shown in Figures 1, 3 and 5, in an embodiment of the present invention, an outer periphery of the annular guide member 2 is connected to the inner periphery of the input port 121, and an inner periphery of the annular guide member 2 forms a guide port 21. The guide port is in a conical shape that gradually narrows towards the interior of the delivery chamber 12. In the embodiment of the present invention, the outer periphery of the annular guide member 2 is connected with the inner periphery of the input port 121, and the inner periphery of the annular guide member 2 forms a guide port 21 for guiding the flow into the delivery chamber 12. The guide port 21 is a conical shape that gradually narrows towards the interior of the delivery chamber 12. The gradual narrowing of the guide port 21 can accelerate the flow of detergent into the delivery chamber 12. Specifically, the annular sidewall of the delivery chamber 12 includes an upper annular sidewall 123 extending vertically and a lower annular sidewall 124 gradually narrowing downward. The inner periphery of a top of the upper annular sidewall 123 forms the input port 121, the inner periphery of a bottom of the lower annular sidewall 124 forms a delivery port 125, and a top of the lower annular sidewall 124 is provided with a water inlet 126. The lower annular sidewall 124 has a smooth curved surface, which gradually bends towards the interior of the delivery chamber 12 from top to bottom. Further, the delivery chamber 12 is in the shape of a right triangle, and the upper annular sidewall 123 and the lower annular sidewall 124 of the delivery chamber 12 both have a first rightangle sidewall 1232, a second right-angle sidewall 1233 and an inclined sidewall 1234. The control console base 1 is in the shape of a square, and the two first right-angle sidewalls 1232 and second right-angle sidewalls are configured to be extended along the comer of the control console base 1 and the inclined sidewalls 1234 are configured to be extended along the outer periphery of the laundry feeding opening 11, and the three sidewall are connected in the circumferential direction to form the upper annular sidewall 123 or the lower annular sidewall 124. Specifically, the axial cross-section of the annular guide member 2 is in a right-angle triangle shape, and the guide port 21 has a guide inlet 211 and a guide outlet 121 respectively arranged on an upper end and a lower end of the annular guide member 2. The guide inlet 211 and the guide outlet 212 are connected with three connecting walls 213 being continuous along the circumferential direction, and two adjacent connecting walls 213 are connected by a transition wall 214 in an arc shape. The transition wall 214 in an arc shape is recessed into the delivery chamber 12, thereby the detergent is prevented from retaining at the arc-shaped transition wall and accelerated to feed into the delivery chamber 12. A process of feeding detergent is as follows: the detergent flows to the guide outlet 212 along the connecting wall 213 through the guide inlet 211, flows into the delivery chamber 12 from the guide outlet 212 and flows towards the delivery port 125 along the lower annular sidewall, and flows into the outer barrel cover. Water is fed into the delivery chamber 12 through the water inlet 126 to flush the detergent remaining in the delivery chamber 12 into the outer barrel cover. Furthermore, there is an overlapping portion between the guide outlet 212 and the lower annular sidewall 124 and the delivery port 125. The size of the guide outlet 212 is configured to be large enough to cover part of the delivery port 125 and the lower annular sidewall 124, so that the detergent flows into the delivery chamber 12 and enters the delivery port 125 along the lower 8 annular sidewall 124. The lower annular sidewall 124 is used for taking a buffering effect on the detergent to prevent the detergent from splashing. As shown in figure 3, in the embodiment of the present invention, the upper end surface of the annular guide member 2 is bent downward to form a flange 23.

The upper surface of the annular guide member 2 is flush with the upper surface of the control console base 1. In the embodiment of the present invention, the connection between the annular guide member 2 and the delivery chamber 12 is as follows. The flange 23 is formed on the upper surface of the annular guide member 2, the support protrusion 122 is provided on the inner periphery of the upper annular sidewall 123 of the delivery chamber 12, and the lower surface of the flange 23 abuts against the upper surface of the support protrusion 122. As shown in figures 3, 4 and 6, the annular guide member 2 is connected with the inner periphery of the upper annular sidewall 123 by means of a plug-in structure 3. Specifically, the plug-in structure 3 includes a plug-in rod 31 and a plug-in groove 32. The inner periphery of the upper annular sidewall 123 is provided with the plug-in groove 32, and an opening of the plug-in groove 32 faces the interior of the delivery chamber 12. The outer periphery of the annular guide member 2 is provided with the plug-in rod 31 protruding outward. The flange 23 provides a space for the plug-in rod 31, at least part of the plug-in rod 31 passes through the flange 23, and the part of the plug-in rod 31 extending out the flange 23 is inserted in the plug-in groove 32. The plug-in groove 32 is provided on the upper annular sidewall 123 above the supporting protrusion 122. The annular guide member 2 is embedded in the delivery chamber 12 through the input port 121, so that the annular guide member 2 is hidden in the delivery chamber 12, and a height difference between the guide outlet 212 and the delivery chamber 12 is reduced, thereby reducing splashing when the detergent is delivered. In addition, the annular guide member 2 can be made of a metal sheet, and the upper surface of the annular guide member 2 is flush with the upper surface of the control console base 1, so the delivery port 121 is protected and decorated. As shown in figures 4 and 6, in the embodiment of the present invention, an annular guide plate 22 is arranged on an outer periphery of an outlet end of the guide port 21 and extended vertically in the delivery chamber 12, and the annular guide plate 22 is coaxially arranged with the guide port 21. In the embodiment of the present invention, the guide port 21 is a conical shape that gradually narrows toward the interior of the delivery chamber 12, so that the detergent has a relatively high 9 speed at the guide outlet 212. In order to prevent the detergent from splashing toward the periphery of the guide outlet 212, the annular guide plate 22 is provided at an outer periphery of the guide outlet 212. The annular guide plate 22 is extended vertically in the delivery chamber 12, and takes a blocking and guiding effect on the detergent.
