Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of household appliance technology, and more particularly to a garment care machine. Background Technology

[0002] A garment care machine is a device that removes odors, wrinkles, or moisture from clothes by applying steam or hot air. It can automatically iron and quickly dry clothes that are hanging freely, preventing new wrinkles from forming. It is time-saving, labor-saving, convenient, and quick, and therefore has become common in ordinary households.

[0003] like Figure 1 As shown, the existing garment care machine includes a housing 1', which contains garment care chambers 11' arranged vertically and an equipment mounting chamber 12'. A clothes hanger 13' is installed on the top of the garment care chamber 11', on which garments to be cared for are hung. The equipment mounting chamber 12' is used to install a heat pump system 2'. An air outlet 121' communicating with the garment care chamber 11' is installed on the top of the equipment mounting chamber 12', and a circulating fan 14' is installed at the air outlet 121'. An air inlet 122' communicating with the garment care chamber 11' is installed at the bottom of the equipment mounting chamber 12'. During operation, the dry, hot air generated by the heat pump system 2' is driven by the circulating fan 14' and enters the garment care chamber 11' through the air outlet 121' to dry the garments. After heat exchange between the dry, hot air and the garments, the resulting low-temperature, humid air then circulates back into the heat pump system 2' through the air inlet 122'.

[0004] However, existing garment care machines only have one garment care chamber 11', which cannot provide separate care for baby clothes and intimate apparel, making them easily contaminated by other clothes and resulting in a poor user experience.

[0041] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and not intended to limit it. Furthermore, it should be noted that, for ease of description, the accompanying drawings show only the parts relevant to the present invention, and not all of the structures.

[0042] In the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention based on the specific circumstances.

[0043] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature.

[0044] In the description of this embodiment, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," and "right," etc., refer to the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are used only for ease of description and simplification of operation, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on the present invention. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used only for descriptive distinction and have no special meaning.

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment provides a garment care machine, which includes a housing 1 and a drying system. The housing 1 has an installation cavity 4 and at least two care chambers inside, each capable of holding garments to be cared for. The drying system is located within the installation cavity 4 and dries the garments within each care chamber. By providing at least two care chambers within the housing 1, different types of garments can be stored and cared for separately, preventing contamination of baby clothes or intimate apparel by other garments. The drying system dries the garments in each care chamber, keeping them dry and improving the user experience.

[0046] In this embodiment, there are two nursing chambers: a first nursing chamber 2 and a second nursing chamber 3. The first nursing chamber 2 has a first air inlet 21 at its bottom and a first air outlet 22 at its top. The second nursing chamber 3 has a second air inlet 31 at its bottom and a second air outlet 32 ​​at its top. Both the first and second air inlets 21 and 31 are connected to the outlet of the equipment mounting cavity 4. The drying system provides hot, dry air to both the first and second nursing chambers 2 and 3. In this embodiment, the drying system is specifically a heat pump system 5, which is energy-efficient and has a fast drying rate. By setting the number of nursing chambers to two, one chamber can be used to hold clothing requiring special care, such as maternity and infant clothing, as well as intimate apparel, while the other can hold outerwear, trousers, etc. Of course, in other embodiments, the number of nursing chambers can be adjusted according to actual needs to suit user requirements.

[0047] In existing technologies, such as Figure 1 As shown, both the air outlet 121' and the air inlet 122' are located at the bottom of the garment care chamber 11'. The dry and hot air coming out of the air outlet 121' mainly relies on the driving action of the circulating fan 14' and the principle that hot air will move upward. It passes through the garment to be cared for, reaches the top of the garment care chamber 11', then returns downward, and finally re-enters the heat pump system 2' through the air inlet 122'. Therefore, existing garment care machines typically have the following problems: 1) The dry, hot air coming out of the air outlet 121' will cross and mix with the humid, hot air returning after passing through the clothes, resulting in lower dryness of the upward-moving air and affecting drying efficiency; some dry, hot air will also be discharged before it has a chance to exchange heat with the clothes, resulting in energy waste and slower drying speed; 2) When there are many clothes hanging in the garment care chamber 11', the upward movement path of the dry, hot air entering the garment care chamber 11' through the air outlet 121' will be greatly obstructed, causing a lot of hot air to turn around and reverse at the bottom of the clothes and be discharged directly through the air inlet 122'. This will cause the bottom of the clothes in the garment care chamber 11' to dry quickly, while the upper part of the clothes will dry more slowly due to poor air circulation and less dry, hot air passing through, resulting in slow and uneven drying of the upper part of the clothes.

[0048] To address the aforementioned issues, the garment care machine also includes a circulating fan 6, which is located at the top inner interior of the housing 1. The first air outlet 22 and the second air outlet 32 ​​are both connected to the inlet of the circulating fan 6, and the outlet of the circulating fan 6 is connected to the inlet of the equipment mounting cavity 4. By placing the circulating fan 6 at the top inner interior of the housing 1, and ensuring that the first air outlet 22 and the second air outlet 32 ​​are both connected to the inlet of the circulating fan 6, a negative pressure is created at the top of the two care chambers. Under the influence of this air pressure difference, the hot, dry air entering the first care chamber 2 and the second care chamber 3 continuously rises, thereby achieving rapid and uniform drying of the garments to be cared for in both care chambers.

[0049] In this embodiment, the first care chamber 2 is located above the second care chamber 3. This arrangement saves floor space and improves space utilization of the garment care machine.

[0050] However, the vertical arrangement of the first care chamber 2 and the second care chamber 3 presents a problem: because the second air inlet 31 of the second care chamber 3 is close to the outlet of the equipment installation chamber 4, a large portion of the hot dry air coming out of the outlet of the equipment installation chamber 4 will enter the second care chamber 3. This causes the clothes to be dried in the second care chamber 3 to be dried preferentially, and after drying, a large amount of hot dry air will still enter the second care chamber 3. This not only prevents the clothes to be dried in the first care chamber 2 from being fully dried, but also wastes energy.

[0051] To address the aforementioned issues, in this embodiment, a first flap is provided on the first care chamber 2, which can selectively block the first air inlet 21; a second flap is provided on the second care chamber 3, which can selectively block the second air inlet 31. When clothing to be cared for is placed in either the first care chamber 2 or the second care chamber 3, the corresponding flap can be used to block the air inlet on the care chamber without clothing, allowing all the hot, dry air exiting from the outlet of the equipment mounting chamber 4 to enter the care chamber containing the clothing, thus improving drying efficiency. When clothing to be cared for is placed in both the first care chamber 2 and the second care chamber 3, the clothing in the lower second care chamber 3 will be dried preferentially. In this case, the second flap can be used to block the second air inlet 31, allowing all the hot, dry air exiting from the outlet of the equipment mounting chamber 4 to enter the first care chamber 2, thus avoiding energy waste.

[0052] Furthermore, a first electric cylinder can be installed on the first nursing chamber 2, with its output end connected to a first lever to drive the lever to slide on the first nursing chamber 2, thereby opening or blocking the first air inlet 21. Similarly, a second electric cylinder can be installed on the second nursing chamber 3, with its output end connected to a second lever to drive the lever to slide on the second nursing chamber 3, thereby opening or blocking the second air inlet 31. By installing the first and second electric cylinders, the automatic opening and blocking of the first air inlet 21 and the second air inlet 31 can be achieved, making operation more convenient.

[0053] Preferably, a humidity sensor is provided at the second air outlet 32. The humidity sensor is used to detect the current humidity of the air coming out of the second air outlet 32. When the current humidity reaches a preset value, the control system of the garment care machine controls the second electric cylinder to drive the second paddle to move, so as to block the second air inlet 31.

[0054] Furthermore, a first air inlet duct is formed between the outlet of the equipment mounting cavity 4 and the second air inlet 31, and a second air inlet duct 24 is formed between the outlet of the equipment mounting cavity 4 and the first air inlet 21. An auxiliary air inlet 23 is also provided at the top of the first care cavity 2, and the auxiliary air inlet 23 can communicate with the second air inlet duct 24. By providing the auxiliary air inlet 23, the dry, hot air exiting the outlet of the equipment mounting cavity 4 can enter the first care cavity 2 not only through the first air inlet 21 but also through the auxiliary air inlet 23, allowing the dry, hot air entering the first care cavity 2 to dry the clothes to be cared for from both top and bottom directions, further improving drying efficiency.

[0055] Furthermore, both the first care chamber 2 and the second care chamber 3 are equipped with clothes hangers for hanging clothes to be dried. By providing clothes hangers, the clothes can be hung flat within their respective care chambers, allowing for faster, more even, and more thorough drying. Optionally, the clothes hanger in the first care chamber 2 has multiple through holes connected to the auxiliary air inlet 23. These through holes are spaced apart along the length of the hanger's rod, further improving the drying efficiency of the clothes hanging on it.

[0056] Furthermore, a first adjusting element 25 is provided inside the second air inlet duct 24, which is used to adjust the air intake volume in the second air inlet duct 24. When only the second care chamber 3 contains clothing to be cared for, the control system can control the first adjusting element 25 to close the second air inlet duct 24, so that all the dry and hot air coming out of the outlet of the equipment mounting chamber 4 enters the second care chamber 3 through the first air inlet duct, thereby achieving rapid drying of the clothing to be cared for in the second care chamber 3.

[0057] Furthermore, the garment care machine also includes a disinfection module 7, which is disposed in the first air inlet duct and / or the second air inlet duct 24. By setting the disinfection module 7, the garments to be cared for in the first care chamber 2 and the second care chamber 3 can be disinfected and sterilized. Specifically, the disinfection module 7 includes a carrier box 71 and a steam generator 72. The carrier box 71 holds aromatherapy blocks or essential oils, and the top of the carrier box 71 has multiple through holes. The steam generator 72 is used to accelerate the evaporation of the aromatherapy blocks or essential oils. The evaporated disinfectant gas can mix with the dry, hot air in the first or second air inlet duct 24 and then enter the corresponding care chamber to disinfect the garments to be cared for in the corresponding care chamber. The disinfected garments will also have a certain fragrance, which can enhance the user experience.

[0058] Optionally, the carrier box 71 is detachably installed inside the housing 1, and the user can replace the aromatherapy block or aromatherapy essential oil inside the carrier box 71 according to their own preferences.

[0059] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the housing 1 includes an inner shell 12 and an outer shell 11. The first care chamber 2, the second care chamber 3, and the equipment mounting chamber 4 are all located inside the inner shell 12. A third air outlet is provided at the top of the inner shell 12, which is connected to both the first air outlet 22 and the second air outlet 32. A third air inlet is provided at the bottom of the inner shell 12, which is connected to the inlet of the equipment mounting chamber 4. The outer shell 11 is fitted over the inner shell 12, and there is a gap between the inner shell 12 and the outer shell 11. A circulating fan 6 is disposed in this gap and located at the third air outlet. The circulating fan 6 divides the gap to form a first air outlet duct 13 and a second air outlet duct 14. In this way, the inner shell 12 can separate the air inlet path and the air outlet path, avoiding the mixing of the dry hot air from the heat pump system 5 with the humid hot air after drying the clothes, thereby ensuring the drying efficiency of the clothes to be dried in the two care chambers.

[0060] Furthermore, since the first nursing chamber 2 and the second nursing chamber 3 are arranged vertically, the first air outlet duct 13 and the second air outlet duct 14 are relatively long. The hot and humid air exiting from the first air outlet 22 of the first nursing chamber 2 and the second air outlet 32 ​​of the second nursing chamber 3 can achieve preliminary cooling and temperature reduction after passing through the relatively long first air outlet duct 13 and second air outlet duct 14, thus improving the dehumidification efficiency of the hot and humid air to a certain extent. Optionally, the inner shell 12 is made of sheet metal, which has good heat dissipation performance, further improving the cooling and dehumidification effect on the hot and humid air passing through the first air outlet duct 13 and second air outlet duct 14.

[0061] The following is combined with Figure 2 A detailed introduction to the specific structure and drying principle of heat pump system 5, such as... Figure 2As shown, the heat pump system 5 includes a compressor 51, a condenser 52, a throttle valve 53, and an evaporator 54. The condenser 52, the evaporator 54, and any of the care chambers are sequentially connected to form a circulating air duct. The compressor 51, the condenser 52, the throttle valve 53, and the evaporator 54 are sequentially connected to form a refrigeration circuit. The air flow process is as follows: after passing through the condenser 52, the air becomes dry and hot air. The dry and hot air flows out from the outlet of the equipment installation chamber 4 and enters the first care chamber 2 or the second care chamber 3. After exchanging heat with the clothes to be cared for, it becomes humid and hot air. After being initially cooled by the first air outlet duct 13 and the second air outlet duct 14, the humid and hot air passes through the inlet of the equipment installation chamber 4 and is dehumidified by the evaporator 54. Then, it is reheated by the condenser 52, and the cycle repeats. The refrigerant flow process is as follows: the high-temperature and high-pressure refrigerant gas from the compressor 51 enters the condenser 52. Under the action of the condenser 52, it transfers heat to the air and condenses into a high-temperature and high-pressure liquid. After being throttled by the expansion valve 53, it enters the evaporator 54, absorbs the heat from the humid and hot air coming out of the care chamber, and becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant gas. It is then drawn into the compressor 51 and compressed. This cycle repeats, thereby achieving the drying effect on the clothes to be cared for in each care chamber.

[0062] Furthermore, a condensate collection tank 16 is provided at the inner bottom of the outer casing 11. After the humid and hot air passes through the first air outlet duct 13 and the second air outlet duct 14, condensate will form. Condensate will also form after the humid and hot air is dehumidified by the evaporator 54. The condensate can drip into the condensate collection tank 16, thus collecting the condensate. Optionally, the condensate collection tank 16 is detachably connected to the outer casing 11. When the amount of condensate in the condensate collection tank 16 exceeds a certain level, the user can remove the condensate collection tank 16 from the outer casing 11 to empty the condensate inside.

[0063] In this embodiment, the condensate collection tank 16 can be connected to the inlet of the steam generator 72 through a connecting pipe to replenish the steam generator 72 and also to reuse the condensate to avoid waste.

[0064] Furthermore, the heat pump system 5 also includes an adjustment switch 57. The condenser 52 and the evaporator 54 are connected through a first ventilation duct 55, and the condenser 52 and the first air outlet duct 13 are connected through a second ventilation duct 56. The adjustment switch 57 is configured to selectively open either the first ventilation duct 55 or the second ventilation duct 56. When the garment care machine is first started, the air temperature inside the cabinet 1 is low. At this time, the adjustment switch 57 can be used to close the first ventilation duct 55 and open the second ventilation duct 56, so that the humid and hot air coming out of each care chamber does not pass through the evaporator 54 for dehumidification, thereby increasing the temperature rise rate of the air inside the cabinet 1. When the air circulating inside the cabinet 1 reaches the preset temperature, the adjustment switch 57 is used to open the first ventilation duct 55 and close the second ventilation duct 56, so that the humid and hot air coming out of each care chamber passes through the evaporator 54 again before entering the condenser 52, thereby achieving rapid drying of the garments to be cared for in each care chamber.

[0065] Furthermore, a second adjusting element 15 is provided inside the second air outlet duct 14, which is used to adjust the air volume in the second air outlet duct 14. When the garment care machine is first started, the second adjusting element 15 can be used to close the second air outlet duct 14, so that the hot and humid air coming out of each care chamber does not pass through the second air outlet duct 14, but only through the first air outlet duct 13 before entering the condenser 52, thus preventing the hot and humid air coming out of each care chamber from being cooled after passing through the second air outlet duct 14.

[0066] It should be noted that the first adjusting member 25, the second adjusting member 15, and the adjusting switch 57 have the same structure. They are all adjusting plates that are rotatably set in their respective air ducts. The first adjusting member 25, the second adjusting member 15, and the adjusting switch 57 are all electrically connected to the control system of the foreign object care machine. The control system controls the first adjusting member 25, the second adjusting member 15, and the adjusting switch 57 to open or close the corresponding air ducts to adjust the air volume of the corresponding air ducts.

[0067] Furthermore, the garment care machine also includes an auxiliary heating component 8, which is located at the outlet of the equipment mounting cavity 4. By providing the auxiliary heating component 8, the dry, hot air exiting the equipment mounting cavity 4 can be further heated, allowing for rapid heating of the air circulating inside the housing 1 when the garment care machine is first started, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the garments to be cared for in each care cavity. In this embodiment, the auxiliary heating component 8 is a spirally arranged heating wire, allowing the air circulating inside the housing 1 to fully contact the heating wire, resulting in high heating efficiency and low manufacturing cost.

[0068] The following is a brief description of the operation procedure for this garment care machine:

[0069] (1) When the user starts the garment care machine and selects the quick drying mode, the heat pump system 5 and the auxiliary heating component 8 start working simultaneously, and the air in the cabinet 1 starts to heat up from room temperature. At this time, the air temperature in each air duct of the garment care machine is still relatively low, and the cabinet 1 has a large space and a lot of air. The air in the drying circulation air duct heats up slowly, so the control system controls the regulating switch 57 to close the first ventilation duct 55 and open the second ventilation duct 56. At the same time, the second regulating component 15 closes the second air outlet duct 14. The air coming out of each care chamber passes through the first air outlet duct 13 and then directly enters the condenser 52 through the second ventilation duct 56 to heat up. It then passes through the auxiliary heating component 8 for a second heating. It does not pass through the evaporator 54 for dehumidification and cooling in the middle. This allows the drying air in each air duct of the garment care machine to heat up quickly. When the air temperature in each air duct reaches the preset temperature, the control system controls the regulating switch 57 to open the first ventilation duct 55 and close the second ventilation duct 56. The air coming out of each care chamber passes through the first air outlet duct 13, enters the evaporator 54 for dehumidification and cooling, and condenses the water. Then it passes through the condenser 52 and the auxiliary heating component 8 to start the rapid drying of the clothes to be cared for in each care chamber.

[0070] (2) When the outlet temperature of the condenser 52 or the exhaust temperature of the compressor 51 reaches the control temperature, it indicates that the heat pump system 5 has reached or is about to reach its maximum load. At this time, the second regulating component 15 of the control system opens the second air outlet duct 14. The hot and humid air coming out of the outlet of the circulating fan 6 will be divided into two paths, entering the first air outlet duct 13 and the second air outlet duct 14 respectively. During the process of the hot and humid air passing through the first air outlet duct 13 and the second air outlet duct 14, some of the heat will be dissipated, achieving preliminary cooling and condensation of some moisture. Then, it will enter the evaporator 54 for further cooling and dehydration. This allows the hot and humid air coming out of the outlet of the circulating fan 6 to be cooled more fully and effectively, and moisture will be condensed. At this time, during the entire drying process, the heat pump system 5 and the auxiliary heating component 8 are both operating at full power, greatly improving the drying speed, accelerating the drying speed, and shortening the drying time.
