DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0053] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0054] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0055] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood broadly. For example, they may refer to fixed, detachable, or integral connections; mechanical or electrical connections; and direct or indirect connections through an intermediary. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific circumstances.
[0056] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.
[0057] The present invention provides an inner barrel assembly 100 for a washing machine, wherein the washing machine may be a pulsator washing machine, a washer-dryer, or the like.
[0058] The following is a detailed explanation using a pulsator washing machine as an example. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the washing machine includes an inner barrel assembly, an outer barrel, an outer shell and other components. The outer barrel is arranged in the outer shell. The inner barrel assembly includes an inner barrel 110, and the inner barrel 110 is arranged in the outer barrel. In some embodiments, the inner barrel 110 is a washing barrel for holding laundry, and the outer barrel is a water barrel for holding washing water. A plurality of water holes are provided on the side wall of the inner barrel 110 for allowing washing water to flow between the inner barrel 110 and the outer barrel; in other embodiments, the inner barrel 110 is designed to be a hole-free inner barrel 110, that is, water holes are no longer designed on the side wall of the inner barrel 110, so that the inner barrel 110 also has the function of holding washing water.
[0059] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the inner barrel assembly 100 of the washing machine includes an inner barrel 110 and an inner barrel cover 120. The inner barrel 110 has an inner barrel opening 111. The inner barrel cover 120 is an openable or closable cover provided on the inner barrel opening 111. A rotatable water-diverting member 130 is installed on the inner barrel cover 120. The water-diverting member 130 is configured to rotate driven by water flow.
[0060] In this embodiment, an inner barrel cover 120 that can be opened or closed is provided on the inner barrel mouth 111. The inner barrel cover 120 forms a relatively closed space for the inner barrel 110, thereby avoiding splashing of washing water, dirt, etc. during the washing process, which is beneficial to improving the cleanliness of the product.
[0061] Among them, those skilled in the art can arrange the inner tub cover 120 to be snap-fitted, plugged and / or threadedly connected to the inner tub 110, or can also arrange the inner tub cover 120 to be embedded in the inner tub 110 and form a tight fit with the inner tub 110. This effectively avoids the situation where the water-repelling member 130 hinders the opening and closing of the inner tub cover 120, making the opening and closing operations more convenient and improving the user experience of the product.
[0062] In this embodiment, a water repellent 130 is provided on the inner cover. The water repellent 130 rotates under the driving force of the water flow. On the one hand, when washing lightweight clothes that easily float on the water, such as down jackets and gauze, the water repellent 130 can be used to press the laundry under the water surface, so that the clothes can fully contact the washing water for comprehensive and thorough cleaning. On the other hand, the water flow drives the water repellent 130 to rotate. The rotation of the water repellent 130 further stirs the laundry, so that the laundry and the washing water / inner wall of the inner tub 110 have sufficient friction, thereby increasing the agitation of the upper layer of laundry, improving the washing efficiency and cleaning ratio, and the water repellent 130 plays a certain blocking role to prevent the laundry from tangling.
[0063] In addition, in this embodiment, the water-dispelling member 130 is driven to rotate by the water flow, so that the stirring and water-dispelling of the water-dispelling member 130 are gentle, thereby avoiding the water-dispelling member 130 from damaging the laundry and facilitating energy conservation and emission reduction.
[0064] For example, Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the water diverter 130 is a pulsator, or as shown in 10, Figure 11 、 Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the water-displacing member 130 includes at least one water-displacing arm.
[0065] Since washing machines are often configured with multiple water levels, to ensure that the water repellent 130 can contact the wash water, the water repellent 130 needs to be movable relative to the inner tub cover 120 to move closer to or further away from the inner tub cover 120. For example, the inner tub cover 120 includes an inner tub cover body and a push-pull portion. The push-pull portion is disposed on the inner tub cover 120 and is movable relative to the inner tub cover 120. The water repellent 130 is mounted on the push-pull portion. The push-pull portion extends or retracts relative to the inner tub cover 120 to drive the water repellent 130 closer to or further away from the inner tub cover 120.
[0066] Specifically, the aforementioned functions can be implemented through the following implementations.
[0067] Implementation Method 1
[0068] like Figure 2 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner barrel cover 120 is provided with a telescopic rod 140 that can be extended or retracted, and the water-diverting member 130 is rotatably installed on the telescopic rod 140. The telescopic rod 140 extends or retracts relative to the inner barrel cover 120 to drive the water-diverting member 130 to move closer to or away from the inner barrel cover 120.
[0069] In this embodiment, the telescopic rod 140 is formed as a push-pull portion, and the water diverter 130 is rotatably mounted on the telescopic rod 140. The telescopic rod 140 extends or retracts relative to the inner tub cover 120, which can drive the water diverter 130 to move closer to or away from the inner tub cover 120. That is, the water diverter 130 can rise or fall in the inner tub 110, so that the extension length of the telescopic rod 140 can be set according to different water levels, ensuring that the water diverter 130 can at least contact the water surface, avoiding the situation where the water diverter 130 accidentally contacts the washing water or the washing items due to the low water level of the washing water, thereby ensuring the effectiveness of the water diverter 130 in diverting water.
[0070] In some embodiments, the telescopic rod 140 and the inner tub cover 120 are detachably connected.
[0071] For example, the telescopic rod 140 and the inner tub cover 120 are connected by means of a snap connection, a plug connection, and / or a threaded connection, etc. This allows the telescopic rod 140 to be detached from the inner tub cover 120, thereby achieving the detachability of the water-repelling member 130, thereby achieving the replaceability of the telescopic rod 140 and the water-repelling member 130.
[0072] In some embodiments, the water-repelling member 130 and the telescopic rod 140 are detachably connected.
[0073] For example, the water-repelling member 130 and the telescopic rod 140 are connected by means of a snap connection, a plug connection and / or a threaded connection, etc. This allows the water-repelling member 130 to be detached from the telescopic rod 140, thereby achieving the detachability and replaceability of the water-repelling member 130.
[0074] Implementation Method 2
[0075] A telescopic drive mechanism is provided on the inner tub cover 120 , and the telescopic drive mechanism has a telescopic drive end, on which the water-diverting member 130 is rotatably mounted. The telescopic movement of the telescopic drive end drives the water-diverting member 130 to move closer to or away from the inner tub cover 120 .
[0076] In this embodiment, the telescopic drive end of the telescopic drive mechanism is formed as a push-pull portion, and a water diverter 130 is rotatably mounted on the telescopic drive mechanism. The telescopic drive mechanism extends or retracts relative to the inner tub cover 120, which can drive the water diverter 130 toward or away from the inner tub cover 120. That is, the water diverter 130 can be raised or lowered within the inner tub 110, thereby driving the water diverter 130 according to different water levels, ensuring that the water diverter 130 can at least contact the water surface, avoiding the situation where the water diverter 130 accidentally contacts the washing water, i.e., the washing items, due to the low washing water level. This ensures the effectiveness of the water diverter 130 in diverting water. In addition, this embodiment realizes automated control and improves the accuracy of the drive.
[0077] For example, a controller of a washing machine is connected to a telescopic drive mechanism. The controller determines and generates working position information of the water diverter 130 based on the water level information obtained in the washing program or the water level information detected by the detection device. The telescopic drive mechanism drives the water diverter 130 to the corresponding working position according to the received working position information, thereby realizing automatic control and improving the driving accuracy.
[0078] For example, the telescopic driving mechanism is an electric push rod, an electric hydraulic push rod, etc., which are not listed here one by one.
[0079] Implementation Method 3
[0080] A telescopic drive mechanism is provided on the inner barrel cover 120 , which includes a drive member and a transmission member. The water-diverting member 130 is rotatably mounted on the transmission member. The drive member drives the transmission member to reciprocate, and the reciprocating motion of the transmission member drives the water-diverting member 130 to move closer to or away from the inner barrel cover 120 .
[0081] In this embodiment, the transmission member is formed as a push-pull part. For example, the driving member is electric and the transmission member is a rack and pinion mechanism, a worm gear mechanism, etc., which are not listed here one by one. Similarly, this embodiment realizes automatic control and improves the driving accuracy.
[0082] It is worth noting that the pushing portion may also be a combination of the above embodiments, or those skilled in the art may also configure the pushing portion to have other structural forms according to specific needs.
[0083] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner barrel assembly 100 of the washing machine also includes an elastic member 150, which connects the inner barrel cover 120 and the water-deflecting member 130, wherein the water-deflecting member 130 rotates in a first direction so that the elastic member 150 is deformed, and the elastic member 150 restores the deformation so that the water-deflecting member 130 rotates in a direction opposite to the first direction.
[0084] In this embodiment, the elastic force of the elastic member 150 drives the water deflector 130 in the reverse direction, so that the water deflector 130 further stirs the laundry in the reverse direction, so that the laundry and the washing water / inner wall of the inner tub 110 have more sufficient friction, thereby increasing the agitation of the upper layer of laundry, improving the washing efficiency and the cleaning ratio, and the water deflector 130 further prevents the laundry from tangling.
[0085] In a specific embodiment, the inner barrel cover 120 includes an inner barrel cover body and a push-pull part, wherein the two ends of the elastic member 150 are connected to the push-pull part and the water-diverting member 130, or the elastic member 150 is set as a torsion spring, which is sleeved on the push-pull part, and one end is connected to the push-pull part, and the other end is connected to the water-diverting member 130, which is simple to install and reliable in connection.
[0086] Alternatively, the inner barrel cover 120 can also be designed to include an inner barrel cover body and a push-pull part, wherein the elastic member 150 is a torsion spring, which is sleeved on the push-pull part, and one end of the torsion spring is connected to the push-pull part, and the other end is connected to the inner barrel cover body. In this way, the push-pull part can move up and down relative to the inner barrel cover body, and can also rotate relative to the inner barrel cover body.
[0087] For example, the elastic member 150 is a spring and / or a rubber member.
[0088] In some embodiments, as Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the water repellent 130 is provided with a filtering device 160 for filtering and collecting lint.
[0089] In this embodiment, the water-repelling member 130 is equipped with a filter device 160 for filtering and collecting lint. The filter device 160 is configured to allow wash water to pass through and intercept lint into the filter device 160. By integrating the filter device 160 with the water-repelling member 130, the water-repelling member 130 can both agitate the laundry and filter the lint, enriching the functionality of the water-repelling member 130. Compared to solutions in which the filter device 160 is located within the inner tub 110, the water-repelling member 130 in this embodiment provides a larger installation space, making the installation of the filter device 160 more flexible and adaptable. The filter device 160 can be increased in size and specifications as needed, increasing the contact area between the filter device 160 and the wash water, thereby improving filtration efficiency and enhancing the filtration effect. Furthermore, since lint often floats on water, placing the filter device 160 on the water-repelling member 130 facilitates its collection, further improving filtration efficiency and enhancing the filtration effect.
[0090] Of course, it is understandable that the inner drum cover 120 of this embodiment can be added to the existing washing machine, so that the filtering device 160 of the existing washing machine and the filtering device 160 of the inner drum cover 120 of this embodiment can filter at the same time, thereby further improving the filtering efficiency and enhancing the filtering effect. In addition, this embodiment only requires adding the inner drum cover 120 to the existing washing machine without modifying the structure of the existing washing machine, which is more conducive to product promotion.
[0091] Specifically, the aforementioned functions can be implemented through the following implementations.
[0092] Implementation Method 1
[0093] The water diverter 130 has a filter collecting chamber 161 . A water inlet 163 and a water outlet communicating with the filter collecting chamber 161 are provided on the water diverter 130 . The filter device 160 is detachably disposed in the filter collecting chamber 161 .
[0094] For example, the water-diverting member 130 is set as a impeller, which includes a impeller body. A plurality of radially extending water-diverting ribs 112 are arranged at intervals along the circumference on the lower surface of the impeller body. A groove with an opening at one end is formed between adjacent water-diverting ribs 112. A part of the opening is formed as a water inlet 163, and another part of the opening is formed as a water outlet. The filter device 160 is detachably arranged at a position corresponding to the water outlet in the groove.
[0095] Preferably, the filter device 160 is a filter screen or a filter cover, and the filter screen or the filter cover is detachably mounted on the water outlet.
[0096] Furthermore, a stopper is provided at the water inlet 163, and is configured to allow washing water to flow from the water inlet 163 into the filter collection chamber 161 and to prevent the washing water from flowing out of the water inlet 163 in the opposite direction, so that the lint is blocked by the stopper in the filter collection chamber 161. For example, the stopper is a rubber member or a silicone member.
[0097] Implementation Method 2
[0098] The water-repelling member 130 has a receiving cavity, and the filter device 160 has a filter box that is detachably installed in the receiving cavity.
[0099] For example, the water-diverting member 130 is set as a pulsator, which includes a pulsator body. A plurality of radially extending water-diverting ribs 112 are arranged at intervals along the circumference on the lower surface of the pulsator body. A groove with an opening at one end is formed between adjacent water-diverting ribs 112. The groove defines an accommodating cavity, and the filter box is detachably installed in the accommodating cavity.
[0100] As an alternative, Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, the filter device 160 may also be designed to be installed on the pushing portion. For example, the filter device 160 is sleeved on the telescopic rod 140 , and the filter device 160 is located above the water-repelling member 130 .
[0101] Implementation Method 3
[0102] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, the water diverter 130 has a filter collection chamber 161 , and is provided with a water inlet 163 and a plurality of filter holes 162 communicating with the filter collection chamber 161 .
[0103] For example, the water-diverting member 130 is set as a pulsator, which includes a pulsator body, and a plurality of radially extending water-diverting ribs 112 are arranged at intervals along the circumference on the lower surface of the pulsator body, wherein the filter holes 162 are arranged on the water-diverting ribs 112, and / or the filter holes 162 are arranged in the area between adjacent water-diverting ribs 112.
[0104] It is worth noting that the filter device 160 can also be a combination of the above embodiments, or those skilled in the art can also configure the filter device 160 to have other structural forms according to specific needs.
[0105] In some embodiments, the inner tub cover 120 is provided with a water inlet 121 for the water inlet pipe of the washing machine to pass through. This effectively avoids the situation where the inner tub cover 120 blocks the water inlet, and there is no need to modify the water inlet of the existing washing machine, which is conducive to the promotion and application of the product.
[0106] Further, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the inner tub cover 120 is provided with a plurality of water permeable openings 121. Some of these openings 121 are spaced apart along the circumference of the inner tub cover 120, and / or some are spaced apart along the radial direction of the inner tub cover 120. This ensures that water discharged from the water inlet pipe can be discharged into the inner tub 110 through the water permeable openings 121 regardless of how the inner tub 110 rotates. This allows the water to be more evenly distributed over the laundry, fulfilling the water dispersion and spraying functions of the inner tub cover 120.
[0107] Furthermore, the water diverter 130 is located below the inner tub cover 120 and spaced apart from the inner tub cover 120, so that a water-flowing gap is formed between the water diverter 130 and the inner tub cover 120. This avoids the water diverter 130 from blocking the incoming water, reduces the water inlet resistance, and improves the water inlet efficiency.
[0108] Furthermore, if Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the inner barrel cover 120 includes an upper cover 122 and a lower cover 123. The upper cover 122 and the lower cover 123 together define a water inlet cavity 125 having a water inlet channel 124. The water inlet channel 124 is suitable for communicating with the water inlet pipe. The lower cover 123 is provided with a water permeable port 121, and the water inlet channel 124 is provided with a clothing treatment agent dispensing device 126.
[0109] In this embodiment, during the water intake process, when the incoming water passes through the water inlet channel 124 and enters the inner barrel 110 along the water permeable port 121, the incoming water passes through the clothing treatment agent dispensing device 126 and dissolves the clothing treatment agent in the clothing treatment agent dispensing device 126 to form washing water. This is conducive to the clothing treatment agent being fully dissolved in the water and sprayed more evenly onto the laundry, thereby improving the cleaning ratio.
[0110] At the same time, the clothing treatment agent dispensing device 126 is flushed with water, thereby achieving self-cleaning of the clothing treatment agent dispensing device 126 .
[0111] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the inner tub 110 is integrally formed with a water-diverting rib 112. On the one hand, the water-diverting rib 112 is used to divert the washing water, increase the turbulence of the washing water, and improve the cleaning ratio. On the other hand, it is convenient for the user to clean the inner tub 110, avoiding the accumulation of dirt and improving the cleanliness and hygiene of the product.
[0112] Of course, those skilled in the art may also design the bottom of the inner barrel 110 to be hollow, and the impeller to be rotatably disposed in the bottom of the inner barrel 110 .
[0113] The present invention further provides a washing machine, comprising: a washing machine inner barrel assembly 100 as described in any of the above embodiments.
[0114] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention in any form. Although the present invention has been disclosed as above in terms of preferred embodiments, they are not intended to limit the present invention. Any technician familiar with this patent can make slight changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments using the above technical content without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the solution of the present invention.
