Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a dehydration device and a washing device, and more particularly to a squeezing dehydration device and a washing device. The present invention belongs to the technical field of washing equipment. Background Art

[0002] In real life, the washing and dehydration problems of women's underwear have always attracted people's attention, especially the dehydration problem. Conventional dehydration methods of pulsator and drum washing machines can dehydrate clothes due to the action of inertial force and gravity, but they are very likely to cause deformation of underwear. Or, users adopt the method of wringing by hand, but due to the special shape of the sponge in the underwear, wringing by hand cannot achieve wringing according to its shape, and still cannot protect the underwear. When directly drying, due to the uneven thickness of the sponge in the underwear, the overall drying time of the underwear is relatively long, which does not meet the user's needs. When underwear that has not been effectively dehydrated is dried, due to the fact that there is still too much water in the sponge of the underwear, the weight of the underwear that has not been completely dehydrated is relatively large, so the underwear is deformed due to the action of gravity during drying.

[0003] In summary, there is a lack of a dehydration device that can adapt to the shape of underwear and protect the underwear from deformation. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a fast and efficient squeezing dehydration device, which is mainly used for dehydrating women's underwear. When the support component and the air-inflating part of the squeezing component of the squeezing dehydration device are inflated and expanded, they are adapted to the shape of women's bras, and the air-inflating part made of elastic deformable material squeezes the women's bras placed in the support component for dehydration. This solves the problem that women's bras are prone to deformation during dehydration in ordinary washing equipment. At the same time, the air-inflating part can repeatedly squeeze and dehydrate the women's bras, solving the problem of long dehydration time and low efficiency of women's bras during ordinary drying.

[0005] Specifically:

[0006] The present invention relates to a squeezing dehydration device, which is characterized in that it includes a support component and a squeezing component, wherein:

[0007] The support component is formed with a groove, and the groove is formed with a drainage structure;

[0008] The squeezing component includes an elastic deformable air-inflating part, the inside of the air-inflating part is formed with a cavity, and the cavity is provided with an air inflation component, and the air inflation component can control the inflation or exhaust of the air-inflating part to make the air-inflating part expand or contract;

[0009] When the air-inflating part expands, an extrusion force is applied to the washing object placed in the groove, so that the water in the washing object is extruded and drained away, thereby realizing the dehydration of the washing object.

[0010] Further optionally, the air-inflating part is an elastically deformable sphere, and after the elastically deformable sphere is inflated, its shape is adapted to the shape of the groove.

[0011] Further optionally, the support member has a support surface which forms two grooves adapted to the shape of a women's corset, and correspondingly, there are two air-inflating parts. The air-inflating assembly simultaneously controls the inflation and deflation of the two air-inflating parts.

[0012] Further optionally, when the air-inflating assembly exhausts air, when the air pressure in the cavity of the elastically deformable sphere is less than the external pressure, the elastically deformable sphere can shrink back into the extrusion member.

[0013] Further optionally, the support member includes a support surface and a rigid bracket. The rigid bracket has a rigid support portion adapted to the shape of a women's corset. The support surface is an elastic mesh structure, and the support surface is laid on the rigid bracket and the grooves on the support surface are adapted to the shape of the rigid support portion.

[0014] Further optionally, both the support surface and the rigid bracket have a drainage structure, and the drainage structure is a plurality of water-permeable holes.

[0015] Further optionally, the support member is an integrally formed support body, and the support body is formed with drainage holes.

[0016] Further optionally, the material of the elastically deformable sphere is thickened rubber.

[0017] The present invention also relates to a washing device which has the squeezing dehydration device according to any one of the present invention.

[0018] Further optionally, it is provided with a box body and a cover body hinged together. The support member is arranged in the box body, and the extrusion member is arranged on the inner wall of the cover body. When the cover body rotates towards the box body, the extrusion member acts on the support member.

[0019] Beneficial effects:

[0020] The present invention relates to a squeezing dehydration device. When the support member and the extrusion member of the squeezing dehydration device are inflated, they are both adapted to the shape of a women's corset, and the women's corset placed in the support member is squeezed and dehydrated through the elastically deformable air-inflating part. While efficiently dehydrating the washed women's corset, the original shape of the women's corset is protected, and the problem that the women's corset is easily deformed due to the pulling between clothes and the centrifugal force during the dehydration process by ordinary washing equipment is avoided. The structure and shape of women's underwear are better protected.

[0021] Furthermore, the elastic and deformable air-inflatable part repeatedly squeezes the female corset placed in the support part to accelerate the dehydration efficiency of the female corset. Since the main water storage part of the female corset is a circular arc-shaped sponge body, the grooves formed between the elastic and deformable sphere and the support part during the inflation of the elastic and deformable sphere are all adapted to the circular arc-shaped sponge body of the female corset, and the grooves formed by the support part are provided with drainage structures, which are convenient for the discharge of the washing water after extrusion.

Embodiment 1

[0041] In this embodiment, the structure of a washing device with a washing chamber equipped with a spray washing head and a squeezing dehydration device is specifically described, as well as the washing process of the washing device and the process of dehydrating women's underwear using the squeezing dehydration device of this embodiment.

[0042] As Figure 1 shown, it is a three-dimensional schematic diagram of the washing device in this embodiment. Figure 1 There is one washing chamber provided in the washing device. Figure 1 This is only a three-dimensional schematic diagram of a washing device with one washing chamber equipped with a spray washing method. The washing device in this embodiment can be provided with one or two or more washing chambers with a spray washing method.

[0043] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, a digital display screen A14, a power display light A15 and a pause / start button A16 are set on the top cover A1 of the washing device in this embodiment. The washing process of the washing device is controlled by the pause / start button A16 and is displayed in real time on the digital display screen A14, which is convenient for users to understand the washing process. Before the washing starts, the top cover A1 is in an unlocked state and can be opened to put the laundry into the washing chamber. After the laundry is placed, the washing program is started. Preferably, the top cover A1 is locked and cannot be opened during the washing process.

[0044] The water inlet A11 is Figure 1 、 Figure 2 the water inlet end of the washing device. Tap water enters the water pipe A10 from the water inlet A11. Due to the functions of the three-way valve A9 and the circulation pump A7, the washing water is sprayed out from the spray head A3 and hits the laundry to be washed, for targeted washing of special stains. When the water inflow reaches the preset water volume, the external water inlet stops, and the circulation pump A7 conducts water circulation washing in the cavity of the washing chamber A6. Until the end of this washing step, the used washing water in the cavity of the washing chamber A6 is discharged from the water outlet A12, and one washing ends.

[0045] As Figure 3As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the water circuit structure of the washing device in this embodiment. When there are two washing chambers in the washing device in this embodiment, the water circuit distribution of the washing device is as Figure 2 shown.

[0046] The washing chambers form a first washing chamber B11 and a second washing chamber B10. The washing chambers include a first spray head and a second spray head. The first spray head is arranged in the first washing chamber B11, and the second spray head is arranged in the second washing chamber B10.

[0047] A first washing chamber drain pipe B1 is connected to the bottom of the first washing chamber B11, and a second washing chamber drain pipe B3 is connected to the bottom of the second washing chamber B10. One end of the circulating return pipe B13 is connected to the second washing chamber drain pipe B3 and the first washing chamber drain pipe B1 through a first drainage three-way valve B2.

[0048] The other end of the circulating return pipe B13 is connected to the first washing chamber water inlet pipe B9 and the second washing chamber water inlet pipe B8, and a second water inlet three-way valve B7 is arranged at the intersection of the three. The circulating return pipe B13 is also connected to the main water inlet pipe B14, and a first water inlet three-way valve B6 is arranged at the intersection of the circulating return pipe B13 and the main water inlet pipe B14. A circulating water pump B4 is arranged on the circulating return pipe B13 between the first drainage three-way valve B2 and the first water inlet three-way valve B6. The circulating return pipe B13 is also connected to the main drain pipe B12, and the intersection of the circulating return pipe B13 and the main drain pipe B12 is between the circulating water pump B4 and the first water inlet three-way valve B6. A second drain valve B5 is arranged on the main drain pipe B12, and the second drain valve B5 is used to control the discharge of the washing water in the washing chamber from the washing device.

[0049] Furthermore, the circulating pump B4 is a centrifugal composite pump, which is used to realize the circulating washing of the washing water in the washing chamber.

[0050] Furthermore, the second washing chamber water inlet pipe B8 is communicated with the second spray head. The washing water flows into the second spray head through the second washing chamber water inlet pipe B8, and then is sprayed onto the washing objects in the second washing chamber through the second spray head. The first washing chamber water inlet pipe B9 is communicated with the first spray head. The washing water flows into the first spray head through the first washing chamber water inlet pipe B9, and then is sprayed onto the washing objects in the first washing chamber through the first spray head.

[0051] As Figure 3 shown, during the washing process, first open the first water inlet three-way valve B6 to supply water to the washing device. According to the washing mode, by controlling the second water inlet three-way valve B7, control the tap water to enter the second washing chamber B10 or the first washing chamber B11 from the second washing chamber water inlet pipe B8 or the first washing chamber water inlet pipe B9. When the preset water inlet level is reached in the second washing chamber B10 and / or the first washing chamber B11, control the first water inlet three-way valve B6 to stop supplying water.

[0052] When the washing device is in the mode of washing water circulation washing, the washing water flows through the first washing chamber drain pipe B1 or the second washing chamber drain pipe B3 under the action of gravity. The control pipe of the first drain three-way valve B2 is opened through a specific signal, so that the first washing chamber drain pipe B1 is communicated with the main drain pipe B12 or the second washing chamber drain pipe B3 is communicated with the main drain pipe B12. At this time, the second drain valve B5 is controlled to be in a closed state. At this time, the first water inlet three-way valve B6 is opened to connect the circulating return pipe B13, and at the same time, the circulating water pump B4 is started so that the washing water in the second washing chamber B10 passes through the circulating return pipe B13, and then the washing water flows back to the second washing chamber B10 through the second water inlet three-way valve B7 controlled; or the washing water in the first washing chamber B11 passes through the circulating return pipe B13, and then the washing water flows back to the first washing chamber B11 through the first washing chamber inlet pipe B9 by controlling the second water inlet three-way valve B7.

[0053] According to Figure 3 As shown, the washing water can be separately circulated in the first washing chamber B11 or the second washing chamber B10. Its beneficial effects are as follows: The washing water in each washing chamber can be separately circulated, which can avoid cross-infection of the dirt of the washed items in different washing chambers. Setting two or more washing chambers can wash different types of clothes at the same time. For example, the first washing chamber B11 can be used to wash private upper underwear, such as women's bras, etc., and the second washing chamber B10 can be used to wash private lower underwear, such as panties, etc. The circulation of the washing water in different washing chambers can increase the solubility of the laundry detergent, reduce the washing time of special stains, and achieve the effect of energy saving and time saving.

[0054] According to Figure 4 The structure diagram of the extrusion type dewatering device in this embodiment is shown as follows. As shown in the figure, the extrusion type dewatering device C100 in this embodiment has an extrusion type dewatering device cover plate C130 and an extrusion type dewatering device box body C140. The supporting member C110 is arranged in the extrusion type dewatering device box body C140, and a plurality of water permeable holes are arranged around the box body where the supporting member C110 is arranged. This extrusion type dewatering device is arranged in the washing chamber of this embodiment of the washing device.

[0055] When the extrusion type dewatering device cover plate C130 is opened, the women's bra can be arranged in the groove C111 to play a role in fixing and supporting the women's bra. At this time, the spraying water of the spray head A3 can be sprayed from top to bottom to spray and wash the women's bra.

[0056] Furthermore, the water pressure of the spray head can be adjusted, and different water pressures can be used to clean the women's bra.

[0057] The squeezing component C120 includes an elastically deformable air-blowing part. A cavity is formed inside the air-blowing part, and an air inflation assembly is provided in the cavity. The air inflation assembly can make the air-blowing part expand or contract by controlling the inflation or exhaust of the air-blowing part;

[0058] When the air-blowing part expands, an extrusion force is applied to the laundry placed in the groove, so that the water in the laundry is extruded and drained away, thereby realizing the dehydration of the laundry.

[0059] In this embodiment, the air-blowing parts in the squeezing dehydration device C100 are two elastically deformable spheres C124. The material of the elastically deformable spheres is thickened rubber. The beneficial effect is that the thickened rubber belongs to a flexible elastic material. During the squeezing process, the shape of the expanded spheres can be changed according to the shape of the female bra, so that the shape of the female bra will not be damaged when squeezing the female bra. And the thickened rubber material can prevent the female bra from being scratched by the ornaments of the female bra during the dehydration process, so that it cannot be used.

[0060] In this embodiment, the air inflation assembly in the squeezing component C120 includes a gas generating and exhausting device C121 and an air inflation and exhaust pipe C122 connected thereto. The two elastically deformable spheres are hermetically connected to the air inflation and exhaust pipe orifice C123. When the gas generating and exhausting device C121 inflates the two elastically deformable spheres, the two elastically deformable spheres are in the state of elastic deformable sphere expansion C125. When the gas generating and exhausting device C121 in the air inflation assembly exhausts air, when the air pressure in the cavity of the elastically deformable sphere is less than the external pressure, the elastically deformable sphere can shrink back into the squeezing component, and at this time the elastically deformable sphere is in the state of elastic deformable sphere shrinkage C124.

[0061] In this embodiment, the support component C110 of the squeezing dehydration device C100 has a support surface C112, and the support surface C112 forms two grooves C111 adapted to the shape of the female bra. Two elastically deformable spheres are correspondingly arranged at the positions of the two grooves C111, and the gas generating and exhausting device controls the inflation and exhaust of the two elastically deformable spheres at the same time.

[0062] Further optionally, the support component C110 includes a support surface C112 and a rigid bracket C113. The rigid bracket has a rigid support part adapted to the shape of the female bra. The support surface C112 is an elastic mesh structure. The support surface C112 is laid on the rigid bracket and the grooves on the support surface are adapted to the shape of the rigid support part. Both the support surface and the rigid bracket have a drainage structure, and the drainage structure is a plurality of water permeable holes C114.

[0063] Further optionally, the support component is an integrally formed support body, and the support body is formed with drainage holes.

[0064] The following specifically describes the dehydration working process of the squeezing dehydration device C100 in this embodiment.

[0065] When the washed and undehydrated female bra is placed on the groove C111, the squeezing dehydration device cover plate C130 is tightened with the box body. Control the gas generating and exhausting device C121 to generate gas, and the gas enters the two elastically deformable spheres through the inflating and exhaust pipe C122. The two elastically deformable spheres change from the elastically deformable sphere shrinking state C124 to the elastically deformable sphere expanding state C125. At this time, the elastically deformable spheres in the elastically deformable sphere expanding state C125 squeeze and drain the underwear placed in the groove C111, and the water flows out through the water permeable holes C114 and out of the water permeable holes of the squeezing dehydration device box body C140 into the drainage pipeline of the washing chamber.

[0066] After one squeezing, control the gas generating and exhausting device C121 to discharge part of the gas in the two elastically deformable spheres, and then inflate the two elastically deformable spheres again, so that the elastically deformable spheres squeeze the female bra again. And repeat the above process until the female bra is completely dehydrated.

[0067] When the female bra is completely dehydrated, control the gas generating and exhausting device C121 to discharge the gas in the two elastically deformable spheres until the external pressure is greater than the internal air pressure of the two elastically deformable spheres, so that the elastically deformable spheres shrink back to the inflating and exhaust pipe orifice C123.

[0068] Beneficial effects:

[0069] This embodiment relates to a squeezing dehydration device. When the supporting part and the squeezing part of the squeezing dehydration device are inflated and expanded, they are both adapted to the shape of the female bra, and the elastically deformable air-inflating part is used to squeeze and dehydrate the female bra placed in the supporting part. When efficiently dehydrating the washed female bra, the original shape of the female bra is protected, and the problem that the female bra is easily deformed due to the pulling between clothes and the centrifugal force during the dehydration process of ordinary washing equipment is avoided. The structure and shape of the female underwear are better protected.

[0070] The elastically deformable air-inflating part is used to repeatedly squeeze and dehydrate the female bra placed in the supporting part, which speeds up the dehydration efficiency of the female bra. Also, since the main water storage part of the female bra is a sponge body with an arc shape, the grooves formed by the elastically deformable spheres and the supporting part when the elastically deformable spheres are inflated and expanded are both adapted to the arc-shaped sponge body of the female bra, and the grooves formed by the supporting part have a drainage structure, which is convenient for the discharge of the washing water after squeezing.

[0071] The exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure have been specifically shown and described above. It should be understood that the present disclosure is not limited to the detailed structures, arrangements, or implementation methods described herein; rather, the present disclosure is intended to cover various modifications and equivalent arrangements included within the spirit and scope of the appended claims.
