[0035] Preferably, as Figure 1 shown, the box body assembly 1 includes a box body 11 and a support mechanism 12 arranged on the box body 11. The lint cleaning member 3 is arranged on the support mechanism 12, and the lint collection member 4 is detachably connected to the support mechanism 12, such as connection methods such as snap connection, threaded connection, or magnetic attraction connection.

[0036] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the support mechanism 12 includes a first support member 121 and a second support member 122 connected to each other. The first support member 121 is connected to the box body 11, and a covering structure is formed on the second support member 122. The lint collection member 4 is arranged in the covering structure and the lint cleaning member 3 is arranged on the second support member 122.

[0037] Preferably, a first connection hole 123 is provided on the first support member 121, and a second connection hole 124 horizontally corresponding to the first connection hole 123 is provided on the second support member 122. One end of a first connection screw passes through the first connection hole 123 and the second connection hole 124 to fasten and connect the first support member 121 and the second support member 122 in a threaded manner, making the connection between the first support member 121 and the second support member 122 more firm.

[0038] Further, a third connection hole 125 is also provided on the first support member 121 (as Figure 5 shown), and a fourth connection hole 111 horizontally corresponding to the third connection hole 125 is provided on the front panel of the box body 11 (as Figure 1 shown). One end of a second connection screw passes through the third connection hole 125 and the fourth connection hole 111 to fasten and connect the first support member 121 and the front panel of the box body 11 in a threaded manner, making the connection between the first support member 121 and the front panel of the box body 11 more firm.

[0039] Of course, the connection manners between the first support member 121 and the second support member 122, and between the first support member 121 and the front panel of the box body 11 are not limited to the threaded connection listed above. The first support member 121 and the second support member 122, and the first support member 121 and the front panel of the box body 11 can also be connected by snap connection, magnetic attraction connection or adhesive connection, etc. No matter what connection manner is adopted, as long as the first support member 121 and the second support member 122, and the first support member 121 and the front panel of the box body 11 can be firmly connected.

[0040] Preferably, as Figure 5 shown, the second support member 122 includes a connected guard plate 1221 and a guard box 1222. The guard plate 1221 is connected to the box body 11 through the first support member 121. The wire debris cleaning member 3 is arranged on the guard box 1222. The guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 together form a covering structure capable of accommodating the wire debris collection member 4, protecting the wire debris collection member 4, avoiding collision between the wire debris collection member 4 and other members, avoiding damage to the wire debris collection member 4, and extending the service life of the wire debris collection member 4; it can also make the wire debris collection member 4 firmly installed on the support mechanism 12, improving the stability and firmness of the connection between the wire debris collection member 4 and the support mechanism 12. Although in this embodiment, the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 are connected to each other, those skilled in the art can think that the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 can also be integrally formed, and the integrally formed structure is convenient for mold processing and production.

[0041] To improve the connection stability between the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222, as Figure 5As shown in the figure, the guard plate 1221 is provided with a fifth connection hole (not shown in the figure), and the guard box 1222 is provided with a sixth connection hole 12221 corresponding perpendicularly to the fifth connection hole. One end of the third connection screw passes through the fifth connection hole and the sixth connection hole 12221 to fasten and connect the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 in a threaded manner, making the connection between the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 more firm. Of course, the connection method between the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 is not limited to the threaded connection listed above, and can also be connection methods such as snap connection, magnetic attraction connection or adhesive connection.

[0042] To facilitate the installation and positioning of the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222, as Figure 5 shown, the guard box 1222 is provided with a first positioning groove 12222, and the guard plate 1221 is provided with a positioning rib 12211. During the installation of the guard box 1222, first snap the positioning rib 12211 into the first positioning groove 12222. The guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 are positioned with each other through the first positioning groove 12222 and the positioning rib 12211, and then the guard plate 1221 and the guard box 1222 are fastened and connected in a threaded manner through the third connection screw, improving the assembly progress of the guard box 1222 and facilitating the installation operation of the guard box 1222.

[0043] To facilitate the installation and positioning of the wire debris collection member 4 and the guard box 1222, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the wire debris collection member 4 is provided with a second positioning groove 41 that cooperates with the first positioning groove 12222. During the installation of the wire debris collection member 4, insert the wire debris collection member 4 into the guard box 1222. The wire debris collection member 4 and the guard box 1222 are positioned with each other through the second positioning groove 41 and the first positioning groove 12222, limiting the longitudinal displacement of the wire debris collection member 4.

[0044] Of course, the positioning structure is not limited to the first positioning groove 12222, the second positioning groove 41 and the positioning rib 12211 listed above. It is also possible to provide a first positioning hole on the guard box 1222, a second positioning hole on the wire debris collection member 4, and a positioning post on the guard plate 1221 that cooperates with the first positioning hole and the second positioning hole. The positioning post passes through the first positioning hole and the second positioning hole at one time to achieve the mutual positioning of the guard plate 1221, the guard box 1222 and the wire debris collection member 4.

[0045] In order to improve the stability of the connection between the lint collection member 4 and the guard plate 1221, a first clamping member is provided on the guard plate 1221, and a second clamping structure is provided on the lint collection member 4. The lint collection member 4 and the guard plate 1221 are clamped and matched with each other through the first clamping structure and the second clamping structure, so that the connection between the lint collection member 4 and the guard plate 1221 is more stable and firm. Of course, the setting position of the first clamping member is not limited to the position exemplified above, and the first clamping member can also be provided on the guard box 1222 or the first support member 121. No matter how the setting position of the first clamping member is adjusted, as long as the lint collection member 4 can be clamped and connected with the support mechanism 12.

[0046] Preferably, as Figure 2 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, the first clamping structure includes a claw formed on the guard plate 1221, and the second clamping structure includes a rib formed on the lint collection member 4, and the claw and the rib are clamped with each other. Of course, the first clamping structure and the second clamping member can also adopt a structure in which a claw and a hook are matched, or a structure in which a clamping block and a clamping groove are matched. Those skilled in the art can flexibly set the structural forms of the first clamping structure and the second clamping member in actual applications.

[0047] Furthermore, the claw includes a first claw 12212 and a second claw 12213. The first claw 12212 and the second claw 12213 are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the guard plate 1221, and the first claw 12212 is located above the second claw 12213; the rib includes a first rib 42 opposite to the first claw 12212 and a second rib 43 opposite to the second claw 12213. The first claw 12212 and the first rib 42 are clamped with each other, and the second claw 12213 and the second rib 43 are clamped with each other. Under the joint action of the two claws and the two ribs, the stability and firmness of the connection between the lint collection member 4 and the second support member 122 are improved. It should be further noted that the number of claws and ribs is not limited to the two listed above, and those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust and set the number of claws and ribs in actual applications.

[0048] Furthermore, as Figure 2 and Figure 5 shown, a convex structure 44 is formed on the lint collection member 4. The convex structure 44 is located between the first rib 42 and the second rib 43, and the convex structure 44 is clamped between the first claw 12212 and the second claw 12213. The convex structure 44 and the first claw 12212 cooperate to limit the upward displacement of the lint collection member 4, and the convex structure 44 and the second claw 12213 cooperate to limit the downward displacement of the lint collection member 4, thereby further limiting the longitudinal displacement of the lint collection member 4.

[0049] Further, the convex structure 44 includes a first convex rib 441, a second convex rib 442, a third convex rib 443, and a fourth convex rib 444. The first convex rib 441 is located below the first rib 42, and the fourth convex rib 444 is located above the second rib 43. The first end of the first convex rib 441 is connected to the first end of the second convex rib 442 and the fourth convex rib 444, and the second end of the first convex rib 441 is connected to the second end of the third convex rib 443 and the fourth convex rib 444. Of course, the convex structure 44 may also include only one convex rib, two convex ribs, or any number of convex ribs. No matter how many convex ribs the convex structure 44 includes, as long as the convex ribs are arranged between the first rib 42 and the second rib 43, the lint collection member 4 and the guard plate 1221 can be positioned relative to each other.

[0050] In the above structure, the holding structure formed on the lint collection member 4 can be a handle, a groove, a convex structure, etc. During the installation and disassembly of the lint collection member 4, the user can hold the holding structure and apply force in the direction close to or away from the guard box 1222 to snap the lint collection member 4 onto the guard box 1222 or remove it from the guard box 1222. The whole operation is simple, convenient, and fast, thus improving the user experience.

[0051] To simplify the structure of the lint collection member 4, the above convex structure 44 can be used as the holding structure. That is to say, the above convex structure 44 can not only be used to position the lint collection member 4 and the guard plate 1221 relative to each other, but also be used as the holding structure to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the lint collection member 4.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, as Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 7 shown, the lint cleaning member 3 includes a connecting shaft 31 and a scraper 32 connected to each other. The connecting shaft 31 is clamped on the guard box 1222, and the scraper 32 is disposed close to or in contact with the annular filter member 5. The scraper 32 cleans the lint on the annular filter member 5 along the direction opposite to the rotation direction of the drying drum 2. During the process of cleaning the lint in the reverse direction, the scraper 32 can scrape off all the lint on the annular filter member 5, making the cleaning more thorough, avoiding lint remaining on the annular filter member 5, and all the scraped-off lint falls into the lint collection member 4, achieving the purpose of cleaning and collecting lint.

[0053] Preferably, as Figure 5 shown, the guard box 1222 is provided with a shaft hole 12223, and the connecting shaft 31 is inserted into the shaft hole 12223. After adjusting the position of the scraper 32, the connecting shaft 31 cannot drive the scraper 32 to rotate, so that the scraper 32 can always clean the lint on the annular filter member 5 at the best angle, and can clean the lint on the annular filter member 5 more thoroughly.

[0054] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the annular filter component 5 includes an annular filter bracket 51 and multiple arc-shaped filter nets 52 (for example, two, three, four, five or any number), the annular filter bracket 51 is connected to the clothes dryer 2, and the multiple arc-shaped filter nets 52 are detachably connected to the annular filter bracket 51, which simplifies the disassembly and assembly process of the arc-shaped filter nets 52 and provides convenience for users to install and disassemble the arc-shaped filter nets 52. Users can only disassemble and replace damaged arc-shaped filter nets 52 according to the usage of the arc-shaped filter nets 52, without replacing the entire filter net, thereby reducing costs and improving user experience.

[0055] Preferably, multiple arc-shaped filter nets 52 are arranged in sequence along the circumference of the annular filter bracket 51, thereby increasing the filtering area of ​​the annular filter component 5. Since the annular filter bracket 51 is connected to the dryer drum 2 and can rotate driven by the dryer drum 2, the multiple arc-shaped filter nets 52 can be driven to rotate. During the rotation process, the multiple arc-shaped filter nets 52 can continuously and evenly filter the lint, thereby improving the lint filtering effect, avoiding the influence of the air outlet effect of the front-loading drum dryer due to the clogging of the filter net, and improving the drying effect of the front-loading drum dryer.

[0056] Preferably, if Figure 8 As shown, an annular accommodating groove 511 is formed on the annular filter bracket 51, and a plurality of snap-fit ​​blocks 512 (for example, two, three, four, five or any number) are provided on the annular filter bracket 51, and the annular filter screen is snap-fitted into the annular accommodating groove 511 through the plurality of snap-fit ​​blocks 512. Of course, the snap-fitting member may also adopt structures such as claws, hooks, and slots, and those skilled in the art may flexibly set the structural form of the snap-fitting member in actual applications.

[0057] It should be further explained that a plurality of first air outlets (not shown in the figure) are arranged at the lower portion of the first support member 121, a plurality of second air outlets 12214 are arranged at the lower portion of the second support member 122, an air duct 112 is arranged at the inner lower portion of the box body 11, and an outlet 1121 of the air duct 112 is arranged on the front panel of the box body 11. During the drying process, the hot air entering the drying drum 2 flows through the rotating arc filter 52 through the second air outlet 12214 for filtration, and the filtered hot air enters the air duct 112 through the first air outlet for discharge; at the same time, the scraper 32 cleans the lint on the arc filter 52 in a direction opposite to the rotation direction of the drying drum 2, thereby avoiding clogging of the arc filter 52, allowing the arc filter 52 to filter continuously and evenly, and also avoiding the air outlet effect of the front-loading drum dryer being affected by clogging of the filter, thereby improving the filtering and drying effects of the front-loading drum dryer; moreover, all the cleaned lint falls into the lint collecting component 4, thereby achieving the purpose of cleaning and collecting lint.

[0058] So far, the technical solution of the present invention has 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.
