[0043] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention introduces a dispensing box structure, which includes a water filling box 100. Water flowing from the water inlet pipe of the clothing processing device flows into the water filling box 100. The water flowing through the water filling box 100 is injected into the tub of the clothing processing device through the water outlet, soaking and washing the load contained in the tub. At the same time, the water filling box 100 is equipped with an outwardly retractable drawer portion 200, and the drawer portion 200 is mounted on the dispensing box 300. The dispensing box 300 has at least one dispensing chamber 3 for dispensing additives such as washing powder, detergent, fragrance enhancer, and disinfectant. At least a portion of the water flowing through the water filling box 100 flows through the dispensing chamber 3, flushing the additives in the dispensing chamber 3 into the tub of the clothing processing device along with the water flow, thereby treating the load in the tub.
[0044] In the embodiments of the present invention, the clothing processing device can be any existing device for taking care of clothing, such as a washing machine, a dryer, or a washer-dryer. For ease of description, the embodiments of the present invention are described using a pulsator washing machine as an example. The pulsator washing machine has a control panel mounted on the upper portion of its housing. An outer tub with a top opening is mounted within the housing. An inner tub driven by a motor is mounted within the outer tub. The inner tub may also include a stirring component, such as a pulsator, that can rotate independently or in conjunction with the inner tub. The water filling box 100 is mounted on the control panel of the pulsator washing machine. A clothing loading port is located in the middle of the control panel, corresponding to the opening. The front end of the water filling box 100 is connected to the clothing loading port. The water outlet of the water filling box 100 faces downward, allowing water flowing out of the water filling box 100 to be directly sprayed into the inner tub through the opening, thereby achieving the purpose of filling the tub with water through the water filling box 100.
[0045] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the water filling box 100 includes a shell 1, the interior of the shell 1 is hollow to form a water filling chamber 2 for the water flow of the clothing processing device to flow through; a water outlet is provided at the bottom of the shell 1, and a water inlet is provided at the top of the shell 1, so that the water flow of the clothing processing device flows from top to bottom through the water filling chamber 2 and then flows into the barrel of the clothing processing device.
[0046] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the shell 1 of the water filling box 100 is a shell structure with an opening only at the front end, so that the opening can allow the delivery box 300 to be inserted into the water filling box 100 from front to back, or the water filling box 100 to be pulled out from back to front; the shell 1 of the water filling box 100 can be composed of two parts that are buckled together, and the shell body 15 is set to a structure with an open upper end. The top of the shell body 15 is buckled and installed with an upper cover 16, and the upper cover 16 is set to cover the upper end opening of the shell body 15, so that the shell 1 of the water filling box 100 is surrounded by a chamber structure with an opening only at the front end for the water inlet flow of the clothing processing equipment to flow through.
[0047] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the delivery box structure includes: a water filling box 100, a drawer portion 200 installed in the water filling box 100 and capable of being pulled outward, a delivery box 300 installed via a lifting structure is provided on the drawer portion 200, and when the drawer portion 200 is pulled out of the water filling box 100, the lifting structure drives the delivery box 300 to rise, and when the drawer portion 200 is pushed into the water filling box 100, the lifting structure drives the delivery box 300 to descend for storage.
[0048] Through the above-mentioned arrangement, the lifting structure drives the delivery box to rise when the water filling box is pulled out of the drawer, and the lifting structure drives the delivery box to descend and be stored when the water filling box is pushed into the drawer, so as to achieve the effect of automatic lifting after the delivery box is pulled out, thereby achieving significant technical progress in making it easier for users to inject additives into the delivery box, improving the intelligence of the delivery box structure, and increasing the user's interactive experience with the clothing delivery device.
[0049] At the same time, through the above settings, the delivery box is automatically lifted to a certain height after being pulled out, so that the top of the delivery box is higher than the water filling box, avoiding the situation where the user is blocked by the water filling box when injecting additives into the delivery box and causing overflow, thereby improving the convenience of injecting additives into the delivery box.
[0050] In an embodiment of the present invention, the lifting structure can adopt any existing structure, and it is only necessary to realize that the delivery box 300 is automatically lifted upward when the drawer part 200 is pulled out, and automatically lowered when the drawer part 200 is pushed inward; for example: a pressure rod structure, a screw structure, a connecting rod structure, etc.
[0051] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the lifting structure specifically adopts the following structure:
[0052] The lifting structure includes a connecting rod 4, the two ends of which are hinged to the delivery box 300 and the drawer part 200 respectively; a slide 5 extending along the pulling direction of the drawer part 200 is provided on the side wall of the water filling box 100, and a sliding plug-in column 9 corresponding to the insertion into the slide 5 is provided on the connecting rod 4, and the withdrawal end of the slide 5 is set higher than the pushing end.
[0053] The slide 5 extends in a "z" shape so that the two ends of the slide 5 are respectively at different height planes, thereby achieving the purpose of the delivery box 300 being limited by the slide 5 and rising and falling synchronously with the pulling and pulling movement of the drawer 200; in an embodiment of the present invention, the slide 5 is divided into three parts along the pulling-out direction of the drawer 200, namely, a push-in section 17, an intermediate section 18 and a pull-out section 19. The push-in section 17 and the pull-out section 19 both extend in a horizontal direction, and the push-in section 17 is lower than the pull-out section 19. The intermediate section 18 extends in an inclined direction, and its two ends are respectively connected to one end of the push-in section 17 and the pull-out section 19 close to the intermediate section 18. The other ends of the push-in section 17 and the pull-out section 19 away from the intermediate section 18 are respectively sealed to form the push-in end and the pull-out end of the slide 5.
[0054] Through the above arrangement, the drawer can be pulled out and pushed in under the guidance of the slide and the sliding plug-in column. Furthermore, because the withdrawal end of the slide is higher than the insertion end, when the drawer is withdrawn, the sliding plug-in column of the connecting rod is lifted upward by the slide's limit, driving the connecting rod to rotate upward, thereby achieving the effect of automatically lifting the delivery box. Thus, the lifting structure composed of the connecting rod and the slide described in the present invention can simultaneously achieve the effects of guiding the drawer's withdrawal and pulling and automatically lifting and lowering the delivery box.
[0055] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the sliding plug-in column 9 and the hinge shafts at both ends of the connecting rod 4 are arranged in an interlaced manner and the axes are set parallel to each other, so that when the sliding plug-in column 9 of the connecting rod 4 is guided by the sliding and moves up and down, it can drive the non-coaxial connecting rod 4 to rotate around the end hinged to the drawer part 200, thereby achieving the effect of synchronously lifting and moving the other end of the connecting rod and the delivery box 300 hinged to the end; at the same time, since the delivery box 300 is connected to the connecting rod 4 in the form of a hinge, the delivery box 300 automatically maintains a horizontal state under the action of gravity, thereby ensuring that the delivery cavity 3 provided in the delivery box 300 can form a stable chamber structure for delivering additives.
[0056] Preferably, in the embodiment of the present invention, the sliding plug-in column 9 is arranged near the end where the connecting rod 4 is hinged to the drawer portion 200, so that after the sliding plug-in column 9 of the connecting rod 4 is driven by the slide 5 to move up and down, it can push the suspended end of the connecting rod 4, especially the delivery box 300 hinged to the suspended end, to rise as much as possible, thereby achieving the effect of increasing the lifting height of the delivery box 300.
[0057] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the front and rear sides of the delivery box 300 are hinged to the drawer portion 200 via the second connecting rod 12 and the first connecting rod 11, respectively, so that the opposite sides of the delivery box 300 are hinged to the drawer portion 200 via different connecting rods 4, respectively. The delivery box 300, the first connecting rod 11, the drawer portion 200, and the second connecting rod 12 together form a four-link structure connected end to end, so that the opposite sides of the delivery box 300 can be supported by the connecting rod 4, so that the delivery box 300 can be stably raised and lowered.
[0058] Preferably, in the embodiment of the present invention, the sliding plug-in column 9 is arranged on the first connecting rod 11 connected to the rear side of the delivery box 300, so that the sliding plug-in column 9 is hidden as much as possible; at the same time, the overlapping range of the sliding plug-in column 9 and the water filling box 100 during the pulling and drawing process of the drawer part 200 can be maximized to ensure that the sliding plug-in column 9 can be correspondingly plugged into the slide 5 and the delivery box 300 can be lifted and lowered accordingly.
[0059] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the lifting structure also includes a support rod 6, one end of the support rod 6 is hinged to the delivery box 300, and the other end is correspondingly inserted into the limiting slide 8 provided on the drawer part 200. After the drawer part 200 pulls out the water filling box 100 and rises, the sliding end of the support rod 6 moves in the withdrawal direction to make the support rod 6 vertical; after the drawer part 200 pushes the water filling box 100 and descends for storage, the sliding end of the support rod 6 moves in the pushing direction to make the support rod 6 inclined or horizontal.
[0060] By connecting the delivery box to the drawer part via a support rod and a slide structure, the support rod can support the multi-link structure composed of the delivery box, the connecting rod and the drawer part to open or store and fold, so that the delivery box can remain relatively stable in the raised or lowered position.
[0061] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in this embodiment of the present invention, a compressed torsion spring 7 is installed at the hinge between the support rod 6 and the delivery box 300. The torsion spring 7 applies a force to the support rod 6 toward a vertical position. By adding a torsion spring, the support rod can push the delivery box upward under the action of the spring's torque, effectively ensuring that the delivery box is lifted when the drawer is withdrawn, preventing the slide from getting stuck and improving the smoothness of the drawer's withdrawal process.
[0062] Preferably, the support rod 6 is hinged to the front side of the delivery box 300, so that the support rod 6 and the sliding plug column 9 act on the front and rear opposite sides of the delivery box 300 respectively, applying an upward lifting force to the delivery box 300 to improve the stability of the lifting process.
[0063] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the limiting slide 8 is arranged on the lower side wall of the drawer part 200, and is composed of a notch that is opened through the lower side wall and extends along the pulling direction of the drawer part 200; the lower end of the support rod 6 is correspondingly inserted into the limiting slide 8, and the insertion end is provided with a limiting cone 10 below the limiting slide 8, and the diameter of the limiting cone 10 is larger than the radial width of the limiting slide 8 in the left and right directions.
[0064] Preferably, Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in an embodiment of the present invention, the lower end of the support rod 6 is provided with a radially narrowed connecting portion 20, and the end of the connecting portion 20 is connected to the center of the limiting cone 10; the radial dimension of the connecting portion 20 is less than or equal to the radial width of the limiting slide 8, and the extended length of the connecting portion 20 is greater than the upper and lower heights of the limiting slide 8; the lower end of the support rod 6 is connected to the center of the limiting cone 10.
[0065] Further preferably, in order to ensure transmission stability, as Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the connecting portion 20 is extended obliquely relative to the support rod 6 toward the rear side of the water filling box 100, so that the connecting portion 20 is arranged obliquely with the main body of the support rod 6, so that part of the limiting circular platform 10 can abut against the lower side of the water filling box 100, improving transmission stability. At the same time, in order to reduce the folded height of the support rod 6 after storage, an expansion portion is provided at the end of the limiting slide 8 where the drawer portion 200 is pushed in, which radially expands the width to the left and right sides, so that part of the limiting circular platform 10 can be stored above the water filling box 100.
[0066] like Figures 1 to 10 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, slides 5 are respectively provided on the left and right side walls of the water filling box 100, and the slides 5 on both sides are symmetrically arranged relative to the front and rear axes of the water filling box; the connecting rod 4 protrudes to the left and right sides respectively and is provided with sliding plug-in columns 9 inserted into the corresponding side slides 5, and the two sliding plug-in columns 9 are coaxially arranged.
[0067] like Figures 1 to 10As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the delivery box 300 includes a horizontally arranged support portion 13, and the support portion 13 is provided with a plurality of delivery cavities 3 arranged at intervals on the left and right; the left and right sides of the drawer portion 200 are respectively provided with upwardly extending limiting side walls 14, and the top surface of the limiting side wall 14 is a curved surface that gradually descends along the pushing direction of the drawer portion 200; the left and right sides of the support portion 13 are respectively arranged above the corresponding side limiting side walls 14, and the support portion 13 and the top surface of the limiting side wall 14 are limited, so that the limiting side wall 14 of the drawer portion 200 provides support for the delivery box 300, so that no matter whether the drawer portion 200 is pulled out or pushed in, the delivery box 300 in the ascending state or the descending storage state can be supported by the limiting side wall 14 and stably maintained in the corresponding position.
[0068] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Although the present invention has been disclosed as above with preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technician familiar with this patent can make some changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments using the above technical content without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
