Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of clothing processing, and specifically provides a clothing processing device. Background Art

[0002] Clothes processing equipment is a device that can wash, dry, sterilize and / or deodorize clothes. With the continuous improvement of production level and the continuous growth of user demand, users have higher and higher requirements for clothes processing equipment.

[0003] In the prior art, taking a washing machine as an example, clothes are generally washed by water washing, and the water washing process is accompanied by mechanical rotation, so that the stains on the clothes are washed clean. However, the limitation of this washing method is that if a large amount of water is injected into the washing drum at the beginning, the stains on the surface of the clothes will directly enter the lining of the clothes when the detergent is not completely dissolved. Therefore, in the subsequent washing process, more time, water, detergent and mechanical action are required to clean the clothes, resulting in poor washing effect. Existing clothing processing equipment often adds other functions to the washing machine, such as adding a drying function to become a washing and drying machine, etc. This improvement does not have a significant improvement on the washing effect of the washing machine, and the current washing machine still cannot achieve deep processing for clothes made of special materials. For example, clothes made of cashmere, wool and other materials are easily damaged by traditional water washing, which has caused great limitations on the scope of application of the washing machine.

[0004] Therefore, the art needs a new clothes processing device to solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, that is, to solve the problems that the existing clothing processing equipment with washing function has poor washing effect and very limited clothing application range, the present invention provides a clothing processing equipment, which includes a clothing processing drum, a water supply valve, a dispensing device, a water containing component and an atomizing generator, the dispensing device includes a water delivery channel, the water supply valve is connected to the water inlet end of the water delivery channel, the water outlet end of the water delivery channel is connected to the atomizing generator through the water containing component, the outlet of the atomizing generator is arranged toward the inner cavity of the clothing processing drum, and a one-way check structure is arranged on the water delivery channel and / or the water containing component, and the one-way check structure is arranged to be isolated from the atmosphere when the water supply valve is opened and to be connected to the atmosphere when the water supply valve is closed.

[0006] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the one-way check structure is arranged close to the water inlet end of the water delivery channel.

[0007] In a preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing apparatus, the water supply valve is arranged on the outside of the dispensing device.

[0008] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the setting position of the one-way check structure and the setting position of the outlet of the atomization generator are at different height positions.

[0009] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the setting position of the one-way check structure is higher than the setting position of the outlet of the atomizing generator.

[0010] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the outlet of the atomizing generator is arranged obliquely.

[0011] In the preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothing processing device, the one-way check structure is a one-way check valve.

[0012] In a preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the clothes processing device is a drum washing machine, and the clothes processing drum is a drum of the drum washing machine.

[0013] In a preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing device, the drum washing machine further includes a window pad connected to the drum, and the atomization generator is arranged on the window pad.

[0014] In a preferred technical solution of the above-mentioned clothes processing apparatus, the atomization generator is arranged on the outer drum of the drum.

[0015] It can be understood by those skilled in the art that in the preferred technical solution of the present invention, by providing a one-way check structure on the water delivery channel and / or the water containing member, when the water supply valve is opened, the water delivery channel and the water containing member can be filled with water, and then when the water supply valve is closed, the one-way check structure is connected to the atmosphere so that the water in the water containing member is sprayed out from the atomizing generator, and the water is converted into small-particle atomized water droplets under the atomization action of the atomizing generator, so as to achieve atomized air care treatment for the clothes. Specifically, before washing with water, the clothes can be first wetted by atomized water droplets, so that the stains on the surface of the clothes are first removed, and the stains on the surface of the clothes are prevented from entering the lining of the clothes, so that in the subsequent washing process, the clothes can be cleaned with less time, water, detergent and mechanical action, thereby improving the washing effect of the clothes and making the clothes processing equipment more energy-efficient. In addition, this atomized air washing method can be used to process clothes made of special materials such as cashmere and wool. Not only can it make the surface of clothes made of this material smoother and softer, it can also quickly remove stains on clothes without damaging the fiber structure of clothes, thereby increasing the applicability of clothes for clothing processing equipment and improving user experience.

[0016] Furthermore, by placing the one-way check structure and the outlet of the atomizer at different heights, a certain liquid level difference is formed, thereby facilitating the water in the water-containing component to be smoothly sprayed out from the outlet of the atomizer generator, thereby making it easier to perform atomized air washing of clothes and improving the user experience.

[0019] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention.

This is only for the convenience of description and does not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, it cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0021] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "set", "install", "connect", and "connect" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0022] Based on the problems pointed out in the background technology that the existing clothing processing equipment with washing function has poor washing effect and very limited scope of application of clothes, the present invention provides a clothing processing equipment, which aims to improve the washing effect of the clothing processing equipment with washing function on clothes, and improve the scope of application of clothes, meet the usage needs of users, and thus enhance the user experience.

[0023] Specifically, Figure 1As shown, the clothing treatment device of the present invention includes a clothing treatment drum, a water supply valve 1, a delivery device 2, a water containing member and an atomizer 3, wherein the delivery device 2 includes a water delivery channel 21, the water supply valve 1 is connected to the water inlet end of the water delivery channel 21, the water outlet end of the water delivery channel 21 is connected to the atomizer 3 through the water containing member, the outlet of the atomizer 3 is arranged toward the inner cavity of the clothing treatment drum, and a one-way check structure is arranged on the water delivery channel 21 and / or the water containing member, and the one-way check structure is arranged to be isolated from the atmosphere when the water supply valve 1 is opened and to be connected to the atmosphere when the water supply valve 1 is closed. Among them, the water containing member can be a water tank, a water box, or a water containing tank on the clothing treatment device, and those skilled in the art can flexibly set the specific structure of the water containing member in practical applications, as long as water can be stored and contained by the water containing member. The atomizer 3 can be an ultrasonic atomizer or a compression atomizer. Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the specific structure of the atomizer 3 in practical applications, as long as the atomizer 3 can convert the water in the water-containing component into atomized water droplets when the one-way check structure is connected to the atmosphere to perform atomized air washing on the clothes. In addition, the one-way check structure can adopt a one-way check valve 7, for example, the one-way check valve 7 in Patent No. 201721853840.8. The principle of the one-way check valve 7 belongs to the prior art and will not be described here one by one. Of course, in the present invention, other one-way check structures can also be used. For example, the one-way check structure includes a cylinder, a moving block arranged in the cylinder, and a spring connected between the cylinder and the moving block. The moving block divides the internal chamber of the cylinder into two parts. The top of the cylinder is provided with an air inlet, the bottom of the cylinder is provided with a water inlet, and the middle of the cylinder is provided with an outlet. The spring allows the moving block to be at the top extreme position, the middle position, and the bottom position of the cylinder. The spring moves between the upper limit position and the lower limit position. When the spring is in the natural state, the spring keeps the moving block at the lower limit position. At this time, the air inlet is connected to the outlet, and the water inlet is isolated from the outlet by the moving block, thereby realizing the one-way check structure connected to the atmosphere. When water flows in from the water inlet, the water pressure overcomes the action of the spring to move the moving block to the upper limit position, so that the water inlet is connected to the outlet, and the air inlet is isolated from the outlet by the moving block, thereby realizing the one-way check structure to allow water to pass and be isolated from the atmosphere. It should be noted that the top and bottom mentioned above are relative to the cylinder body, and the specific setting direction and specific setting position of the one-way check structure do not constitute a limitation. Alternatively, the one-way check structure can also be a blocking structure. Specifically, an opening is set at the highest point of the water delivery channel 21 and / or the water-containing component, and a blocking is set on the opening. When water enters the water supply valve 1, the opening is closed by blocking. When the water supply valve 1 is closed, the blocking is removed and the opening is connected to the atmosphere, thereby realizing that the water in the water-containing component is sprayed out from the outlet of the atomizer generator 3.Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the specific structure of the one-way check structure in practical applications, as long as the one-way check structure can be used to isolate the water supply valve 1 from the atmosphere when it is opened and connect it to the atmosphere when it is closed. Furthermore, a one-way check structure can be provided only on the water supply channel 21. Under this structure, if the one-way check structure is connected to the atmosphere, the water in the water supply channel 21 and the water containing component will flow into the interior of the clothing treatment drum through the atomizing generator 3. Of course, one-way check structures can also be provided on the water supply channel 21 and the water containing component respectively, so that when the one-way check structure is connected to the atmosphere, the water in the water supply channel 21 and the water containing component will flow into the interior of the clothing treatment drum through the atomizing generator 3. Alternatively, a one-way check structure can be provided only on the water containing component. In this case, when the one-way check structure is connected to the atmosphere, at least the water in the water containing component can flow into the interior of the clothing treatment drum through the atomizing generator 3. Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the setting position and distribution method of the one-way check structure in actual applications, as long as at least the water in the water containing component can flow into the interior of the clothing treatment drum through the atomizing generator 3 to realize the atomized air washing of the clothing.

[0024] It should be noted that the one-way check structure adopted in the present invention can enable the atomizer generator 3 to smoothly generate atomized water droplets. This is because when the water supply valve 1 is always open, it is difficult for the atomizer generator 3 to form atomized water droplets under the action of water pressure. Therefore, the water supply valve 1 can be opened to store water in the water delivery channel 21 and the water containing component, and then the water supply valve 1 is closed. At this time, through the principle of atmospheric communication, at least the water in the water containing component is sprayed from the atomizer generator 3 onto the clothes in the form of atomized water droplets, thereby ensuring that the atomizer generator 3 can perform atomized air washing on the clothes.

[0025] In addition, it should be noted that the clothing processing device of the present invention can be a drum washing machine, a pulsator washing machine, a washer-dryer, a clothing care machine, etc. Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the application objects of the technical solution of the present invention. The adjustment and change of such application objects do not deviate from the principles of the present invention and should be limited to the protection scope of the present invention. The technical solution of the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with a drum washing machine.

[0026] Specifically, Figure 2As shown, the drum washing machine of the present invention includes a housing, a drum 4 arranged in the housing, and a window pad 5 connected between the outer drum of the drum 4 and the housing. The atomizer 3 is preferably arranged on the window pad 5 and the outlet of the atomizer 3 is obliquely arranged toward the inner cavity of the drum 4 (of course, other arrangement directions are also possible). Alternatively, the atomizer 3 can also be arranged on the outer drum of the drum 4, as long as atomized water droplets can be sprayed to the clothes in the inner drum of the drum 4 to perform atomized air washing. In addition, the drum washing machine also includes a dispensing device 2 arranged on the housing, the dispensing device 2 includes a clothing treatment agent dispensing chamber and a water box arranged on the top of the clothing treatment agent dispensing chamber, a water delivery channel 21 is formed in the water box, a water inlet end of the water delivery channel 21 is connected to a water supply valve 1 arranged on the outside of the dispensing device 2, a water outlet end of the water delivery channel 21 is connected to a water tank 6 through a pipeline, the water tank 6 is connected to an atomization generator 3 through a pipeline, the water tank 6 has the function of storing water, a one-way check valve 7 is arranged on the water delivery channel 21, for example, the one-way check valve 7 can be arranged close to the water inlet end of the water delivery channel 21, of course, the one-way check valve 7 can also be arranged at other positions of the water delivery channel 21, and those skilled in the art can flexibly set the setting position of the one-way check valve 7 on the water delivery channel 21 in actual applications, and such adjustment and change of the setting position of the one-way check valve 7 does not constitute a limitation to the present invention and should be limited within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0027] Preferably, the setting position of the one-way check valve 7 and the setting position of the outlet of the atomizer 3 are at different height positions, that is, when the one-way check valve 7 is connected to the atmosphere, a certain liquid level difference can be formed between the one-way check valve 7 and the outlet of the atomizer 3, so that the water stored in the water delivery channel 21 and the water tank 6 can be more easily sprayed onto the clothes in the form of atomized water droplets through the atomizer 3. Since the setting position of the dispensing device 2 is generally higher than the setting position of the drum 4 in the drum washing machine, it is more preferred to set the setting position of the one-way check valve 7 higher than the setting position of the outlet of the atomizer generator 3, so as to fully utilize the original structure of the drum washing machine.

[0028] So far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principle of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after these changes or substitutions will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
