Washing machine

Abstract

The invention discloses a washing machine. The washing machine comprises a machine body, an outer barrel, a drainage pipe, a three-way changeover valve, an outer drainage pipe and a water circulation pipe. The three-way changeover valve comprises a valve body, a valve element, a magnetic part and an excitation part. The valve body is provided with a water inlet, a first water outlet and a second water outlet, and the water inlet is connected with the drainage pipe. The valve element is driven by magnetic force generated between the excitation part and the magnetic part to be movably arranged in the valve body between a first position and a second position, the water inlet is only communicated with the second water outlet when the valve element is located at the first position, and the water inlet is only communicated with the first water outlet when the valve element is located at the second position. One end of the outer drainage pipe is communicated with the first water outlet, and the other end of the outer drainage pipe extends out of the machine body. One end of the water circulation pipe is communicated with the second water outlet, and the other end of the water circulation pipe is communicated with a cavity so that the interior of the outer barrel can be washed. The washing machine is simple in structure, and drainage and water circulation can be switched without additionally arranging a pump.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to a washing machine. Background technique

[0002] With the development of washing machine technology, people have higher and higher requirements for washing machines, and the washing performance of clothes is also becoming more and more demanding. And the water between the inner and outer barrels of the washing machine often cannot be effectively utilized. The washing machine in the related art adds a separate pump, which is specially used to pump the water between the inner and outer tubs to the top of the tub, and then sprays it back into the inner tub. Through the circulation of water, on the one hand, the dissolution rate of the detergent is increased. On the other hand, the utilization rate of the water in the barrel is increased, so as to save water and improve the cleaning performance. However, adding a pump body means an increase in cost, a waste of space and a compli...
