Brush washing machine

Abstract

Traditional washing machines have many shortcomings. Whether they are turbine or drum type, they have poor decontamination ability, long washing time, and large water consumption. Moreover, clothes get tangled after washing, which causes great inconvenience to the drying work. The patented brush-rubbing washing machine of the present invention changes the traditional turbine and drum types into brush-rubbing type. It is characterized in that a number of clothes clips are vertically installed on the clothes clip gauge of the drum, and a number of brushes are vertically installed on the brush chassis. Every two brushes wrap a clothes clip. When the motor is turned on to make the drum and the brush chassis rotate in reverse, the brush will rub against the clothes clip to complete the rubbing and brushing of the washed items; when the drum and the brush chassis rotate in the same direction and at the same speed, the brush will run synchronously with the clothes clip to complete the drying of the washed items. The clothes clip used in this patent can be used as a hanging clip for changing clothes, or it can be fixed on the drum chassis to drag the washed items and the brush to rub against each other, and it can also be directly taken out and dried on the concave channel steel on the balcony wall.

Description

[0001] Technical field: The invention relates to multiple fields, such as daily household laundry, laundry in the laundry room, etc. Technical background:

[0002] Washing clothes is an indispensable part of our daily life. Washing machines have liberated humans from traditional manual laundry, allowing people to use the saved laundry time for other work.

[0003] Traditional washing machines are mainly divided into two categories: turbine type and drum type, but both types have many shortcomings, as follows;

[0004] 1. Poor decontamination ability

[0005] Turbine washing machine uses the water flow generated by the turbine to rinse clothes, and drum washing machine uses the tumbling of the drum to wash clothes. Neither of them has the function of specifically cleaning the contaminated parts of clothes. Unlike manual washing, people can specifically scrub and wash the contaminated parts.

[0006] 2. Washing takes a long time and consumes a lot of water

[0007] Because traditional washing machines have poor rinsing and washing cleaning capabilities, the laundry process can only be completed through repeated cycles, which results in a long laundry time and a large amount of water consumption.

[0008] 3. Clothes are seriously entangled with each other

[0009] Whether rinsing or tumbling, it will eventually lead to serious entanglement between clothes, which causes great inconvenience to the drying work, and also makes the originally relatively flat clothes wrinkled. People still have to wash many expensive clothes by hand.

[0010] 4. The design of traditional washing machines does not take into account the convenience of drying clothes. The disconnection between the two designs brings a lot of trouble to drying clothes. There are also a variety of drying tools, including hangers, trouser racks, sock racks, and clothes drying racks, which give people a messy look.

[0011] The patented brush-rubbing washing machine of this invention changes the traditional turbine and drum types into brush-rubbing washing machines, which can specifically clean the contaminated areas, thereby enhancing the decontamination ability and saving washing time and water. The "clothes and pants clip" designed in reverse from the convenience of drying work can be used for drying, and can also be used to pull the washed items to make circular motions in the drum when washing. Then, a "brush" component is added to clamp the washed items in it for smooth brushing, thus solving the "entanglement" problem of traditional washing methods and bringing great convenience to drying work. Summary of the invention:

[0012] This patent has five major advantages:

[0013] 1. Strong decontamination ability

[0014] This patent adopts rubbing brush washing method. The contaminated area can be spread flat in the "brush", and then the relative movement between the "clothes clip" and the "brush" is used to produce "counter-rubbing", which greatly improves the decontamination ability.

[0015] 2. Fast washing speed and less water consumption

[0016] This patent uses "clothes clips" and "brush" to isolate the clothes to be cleaned from each other and place them in the drum, without blocking or entanglement. With the continuous rotation of the drum, the brushing work of the "brush" is repeated and comprehensive, with extremely fast cleaning speed and minimal water consumption.

[0017] 3. High controllability

[0018] According to different cleaning targets, this patent can perform high-speed cleaning and slow cleaning by controlling the different speeds of the motor. Especially for precious clothes, the lowest speed gear can be used for slow and gentle rubbing.

[0019] 4. Convenient drying

[0020] This patent uses "clothes clips" to clamp the laundry and bring it into the drum of the washing machine, spreading it evenly between the "brushes". During the entire washing process, each piece of laundry is pulled by its own "clothes clip" and rubbed and brushed around its own circular trajectory. The clothes that have been rubbed and brushed will be flatter than before washing. After washing, you only need to take the "clothes clip" out of the drum of the washing machine and hang it out directly.

[0021] 5. Unify the "clothes and pants clips" to make them beautiful and neat

[0022] The "clothes and pants clip" designed in conjunction with the patent can be used to pull the wash items in the drum of the washing machine and rub them against the "brush", and can also be used for drying clothes, pants, towels, socks, etc.

[0023] The patent structure of this invention

[0024] The present invention is divided into three major parts: "washing machine box", "drum A", "brush chassis B" ( Figure 1 , 2 、3)

[0025] The "washing machine body" includes the "water tank", "motor", "control panel", "inlet and outlet valves", etc. The structure of this part is no different from that of a traditional drum washing machine and will not be discussed in detail in this proposal.

[0026] The cylindrical structure of "drum A" is placed horizontally on its side in the "water tank", and the side adopts a large-pitch grille structure to facilitate the entry and exit of the washing objects. The "clothes and pants clip D" is vertically fixed to the "drum shaft" through the "concave channel steel K" welded on it at the bottom to make it parallel to the "drum shaft". It is connected to the "motor" through the "drum shaft". With the start of the "motor", the "drum A" can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around the "drum shaft". When the "drum A" rotates, the "clothes and pants clip D" will pull the washing objects around the center of the circle to make a circular motion and form a "clothes and pants clip gauge E".

[0027] The "brush chassis B" is also placed in the "water tank" and is placed parallel to the "drum chassis C" at the open end of the "drum A". The center of the two circles overlap and the radius of the circle is equal. It is connected to the "motor" through the "brush shaft". As the "motor" is started, the "brush chassis B" can rotate clockwise or counterclockwise around the "brush shaft". At the appropriate position of the "brush chassis B", a number of long strips of "brushes F" are fixedly installed vertically to it for clamping and rubbing the cleaning objects. The "brush F" is in a horizontal position. When the "brush chassis B" rotates, it will make a circular motion around the "brush shaft". The position arrangement of the two "brushes F" can just make their circular orbit surround the "clothes clamp gauge E" inside and outside.

[0028] "Clothes Clip D" Figure 4 ) is made of hard material and consists of four parts: "yin rod G", "yang rod H", "nut I" and "circular wedge J". "Yin rod G" and "yang rod H" are made of a cylinder cut horizontally, and a rectangular column parallel to the "yin rod G" is cut out in the "yin rod G" to form a groove. A rectangular thin sheet parallel to the "yang rod H" is cut out at the horizontal section below the center of the circle, and then the rectangular column cut out from the "yin rod G" is glued to the "yang rod H" to form a convex groove. The "yin rod G" and "yang rod H" are coupled to each other through convex and concave, but the cylinder after coupling is thinner than before cutting, and the missing space is used to clamp the cleaning object and the "concave channel steel K" on the "drum chassis C" so that it can pull the cleaning object to rotate with the "drum A".

[0029] In order to fasten the "yin rod G" and "yang rod H" of the "clothes and pants clip D", this design has made treatments on both the left and right ends; a disc is cut longitudinally on the left end, and several small cylinders with the same radius are dug out longitudinally on the upper radius line to form several small circular holes, and then the disc is glued in situ to the left end of the "yang rod H". Then a small cylinder dug out is glued to the appropriate position on the longitudinal radius line of the circular section of the left end of the "yin rod G", so that it can be inserted into any of the small circular holes on the left end of the "yang rod". The spacing between the "yin rod G" and "yang rod H" is different due to the insertion of different small circular holes. The "nut I" and "circular wedge J" on the right end can not only fasten the "yin rod G" and "yang rod H", but also firmly fasten the "clothes and pants clip D" to the "concave channel steel K". The inner radius of the "nut I" is slightly larger than the outer radius of the cylinder before it is cut, so that it can be freely slid left and right on it. The "circular wedge J" is formed by evenly dividing a cone whose bottom area is slightly smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the cylinder before the "female rod G" and "male rod H" are cut, and an intermittent thread is engraved on the conical surface for the "nut I" to screw in. They are symmetrically glued to the rightmost ends of the "female rod G" and "male rod H". When the "nut I" is screwed in to the right along the "circular wedge J", it will press the "female rod G" and "male rod H" closer to each other, and the notch on the rightmost circular section of the "clothes clip D" will firmly clamp the "concave channel steel K" on the "drum chassis C". Description of the drawings:

[0030] Figure 1 This is the front view of the coupling of "clothes clip D" and "brush F"

[0031] This patent divides the "drum chassis C" into several concentric circles of different sizes according to different radii, and each concentric circle is the running track of the corresponding "clothes and pants clip D" "clothes and pants clip gauge E". As the "drum chassis C" continues to rotate, the "clothes and pants clip D" will pull the washing objects to make circular motion along the "clothes and pants clip gauge E". Multiple pairs of "clothes and pants clips D" do not cross each other. The "clothes and pants clip gauge E" near the center of the circle has a smaller circumference. The "clothes and pants clip D" is suitable for hanging and clamping small washing objects such as shorts and socks. Similarly, the "clothes and pants clip A" at the outermost concentric circle is suitable for hanging and clamping large washing objects such as tops and trousers.

[0032] The "brush F" is a number of long strips of brushes with hair on both sides installed vertically on the "brush chassis B". The horizontal projection of its running track on the "drum chassis C" just surrounds each "clothes and pants clip E" inside and outside. Each "clothes and pants clip D" is clamped on both sides of the "brush F" when doing circular motion, so that the cleaning objects pulled by the "clothes and pants clip D" can be rubbed and brushed. In addition to the brushing function, the "brush F" also has the function of suspending larger pieces of cleaning objects. Considering the larger size of tops and trousers, this patent considers installing a number of "brushes F" at intervals on the two vertical diameter lines of the outer concentric circle for larger pieces of cleaning objects to be wound around them. However, the "clothes and pants clips D" on the inner concentric circle do not need this consideration because they hang and clamp small pieces of cleaning objects.

[0033] Figure 2 This is the side view of the coupling between "clothes clip D" and "brush F"

[0034] The "brush F" can also be fixed on the "brush chassis B" using the "clothes clip D" for easy loading and unloading. When washing large items such as cotton-padded jackets, the "brush F" on one side can be removed or the distance between the two "brushes F" can be adjusted. The depth of each "brush F" and the "roller A" is equal to ensure that the items laid flat on the "clothes clip D" can be fully cleaned.

[0035] If you need to wash items such as bed sheets and quilt covers, you don't need the "clothes clip D". The "brush F" evenly distributed in the "drum A" will play the role of the "convex groove" in the drum of a traditional drum washing machine. As the "drum A" rotates continuously, the washing items will be rolled and washed inside.

[0036] Figure 3 This is the perspective view of the coupling of "clothes clip D" and "brush F"

[0037] "Drum A" and "brush chassis B" are the two core components of this patent. Although they have the same radius, overlapping rotation axes, and are in the same "water tank", there is no intersection between the two. The "brush chassis B" extends the "brush F" vertically fixed on it into the "drum A" and clamps the corresponding "clothes clip D" on both sides of the "clothes clip gauge E".

[0038] During the cleaning stage, the "motor" is turned on to make the two rotate in opposite directions, then the "brush F" and the "clothes clip D" will rub against each other to complete the rubbing of the cleaned objects.

[0039] During the spin-drying stage, turn on the "motor" so that both rotate in the same direction and at the same speed, then the "brush F" will operate synchronously with the "clothes clip D" to complete the spin-drying of the washed items.

[0040] The rubbing force for different cleaning objects can be controlled by the different speeds of the "motor". When cleaning expensive objects such as plush, you can use the lowest speed to rub the brush gently.

[0041] The steering and speed control of the "motor" can be completed through the "control panel", and this technology is not described in this solution.

[0042] Figure 4 This is the cross-sectional view of "clothes clip D"

[0043] When the "clothes clip D" is in a loose state, the "nut I" can slide freely on it, the "female rod G" and the "male rod H" can also make relative translational motion through the "concave" and "convex" parts, the small cylinder on the "female rod G" can be inserted into any small round hole on the "male rod H", and the gap between the "female rod G" and the "male rod H" is used to clamp cleaning objects of different thicknesses.

[0044] First move the "female rod G" to the right and spread the cleaned material flat on the "convex groove" of the "male rod H", then restore the "female rod G" to its original position, press it tightly and insert the small cylinder on the "female rod G" into the small round hole on the "male rod H", finally slide the "nut I" to the far right end and tighten it lightly.

[0045] There is a progressive thread on the conical surface of the right end "circular wedge J", and the thread radius increases to the right. As the "nut I" is tightened to the right, the gap between the "female rod G" and the "male rod H" is gradually squeezed. The cleaning object is tightened at the gap through four right-angle turns to ensure that it will not fall off when it rotates at high speed in the "drum A".

[0046] The gap of the "clothes and pants clip D" at the end of the "circular wedge J" is coupled with the "concave channel steel K". No matter whether the "motor" rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, the "concave" structure always has one side that can block the relative movement between the "clothes and pants clip D" and the "drum disc C" when the "motor" speed changes. Similarly, the closed side of the "concave channel steel K" will block the centrifugal tendency of the "clothes and pants clip D" during operation. The three-sided blocking design will make the "clothes and pants clip D" firmly stuck on the "drum chassis C" and remain motionless as the "drum A" rotates at high speed.

[0047] Figure 5 , 6 7 is a schematic diagram of the use of "clothes and pants clip D"

[0048] It is important to explain the clipping method of the jacket. Since the collar of the jacket is narrower than the shoulder, the wide part is easily folded and tangled when the jacket is pulled by the "jacket clip D" for washing. This patent design has an inverted T-shaped "lining hanger". When using the "jacket clip D", first place the "lining hanger" under the armpits of the jacket, then use the "female rod G" and "male rod H" to clamp the collar and the end of the T, and then buckle the jacket.

[0049] Figure 8 , 9 It is a diagram of clothes drying

[0050] This patented design is equipped with drying tools. Figure 8 The tool can be placed indoors as a clothes drying rack, and outdoors as a clothes drying rack. It can be placed flexibly according to needs. Fig. 9 The tool is just a simple "concave channel K" that can be fixed in place on an outdoor wall or indoor laundry room wall. Specific implementation method:

[0051] 1. Changing clothes

[0052] Clip the changed clothes directly with "clothes clip D", with the end of "round chisel J" facing outwards and the other end directly inserted into the Figure 8 Waiting for cleaning in the "clamp hole" of the clothes drying rack.

[0053] 2. Laundry

[0054] Take down the "clothes clip D" from the clothes drying rack, and fix the "clothes clip D" on the "concave channel steel K" of the "drum chassis C" from short to long according to the length of the laundry to be clamped. The "clothes clip D" for small laundry is clamped at the nearest center of the circle, and the "clothes clip D" for larger laundry is clamped one by one at the outer circle. In order to prevent the large laundry from getting entangled, after the "clothes clip D" is stuck, manually turn the "drum A" one circle, so that the laundry pulled on it is clamped in the four symmetrically arranged "brushes F". Finally, turn on the "motor" and wash according to the program.

[0055] 3. Drying clothes

[0056] First, move the empty clothes drying rack to the sun outside, then pull the laundry in the washing machine together with the "clothes clip A" from the outside to the inside, and directly insert them into the "clip hole" of the clothes drying rack. In case of strong wind or rain, you can also use the "round wedge J" to clip the "concave channel steel K" under the eaves of the outer wall.

[0057] 4. Hanging

[0058] After the washed items are dried, the entire clothes drying rack can be moved indoors to the bedroom to hang them up, waiting for the next time you change clothes.
