Description

Technical Field

[0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of clothing treatment, and more particularly, to a clothing treatment device. Background Art

[0002] Heat pump dryers have greatly improved people's quality of life, enabling clothes to be worn immediately after drying, and having energy-saving characteristics at the same time. However, the combination of a simple drum washing machine and a heat pump dryer takes up a large amount of space. Heat pump washing and drying integrated machines that introduce a heat pump system into the washing machine have gradually gained favor among consumers. However, the structure of the washing machine itself is complex, and it is inconvenient to assemble when installing the heat pump system into the washing machine, with low assembly efficiency, which affects the production output of the heat pump washing and drying integrated machine. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Embodiments of the present invention aim to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] To this end, one aspect of the embodiments of the present invention provides a clothing treatment device.

[0005] In view of this, according to one aspect of the embodiments of the present invention, there is provided a clothing treatment device, including a housing, a barrel assembly, a air supply assembly, and a connecting member. Among them, the barrel assembly is located inside the housing, and the barrel assembly forms a cavity; the air supply assembly includes a circulation channel, and both the air inlet and the air outlet of the circulation channel are connected to the barrel assembly; the connecting member is connected to both the housing and the air supply assembly at the same time, and the connecting member is located on the side of the air supply assembly away from the barrel assembly.

[0006] The clothes processing device provided by the embodiment of the present invention has a housing forming its overall framework, which can accommodate other structures. A barrel assembly inside the housing forms a cavity for accommodating clothes to be processed. The air supply assembly includes a circulation channel communicating with the barrel assembly to introduce the wet and cold air in the barrel assembly into the circulation channel, and after dehumidification and temperature rise, it is sent back into the barrel assembly, enabling clothes drying. By providing a connecting member connected to the air supply assembly, the air supply assembly can be carried and moved by holding the connecting member. Specifically, the connecting member can be connected to the circulation channel. At the same time, since the connecting member is specifically connected to the side of the air supply assembly facing away from the barrel assembly, that is, facing outwards, the connecting member can always be exposed within the visual range and operation range of the assembly personnel, and can also always be exposed within the operation range of the automated assembly equipment, that is, the position of the air supply assembly can be adjusted through the connecting member during the entire assembly process, facilitating operation. In addition, the connecting member is also connected to the housing. After the position of the air supply assembly is adjusted, the connecting member can be directly fixedly connected to the housing, thereby realizing the fixed connection between the air supply assembly and the housing, and completing the assembly of the air supply assembly. The clothes processing device provided by the embodiment of the present invention can directly complete the handling and assembly of the air supply assembly by setting the connecting member, which helps to greatly improve the assembly efficiency of the air supply assembly and the housing, and increase the output of the clothes processing device.

[0007] Specifically, the barrel assembly includes a stationary outer barrel and an inner barrel capable of rotating relative to the outer barrel. The outer barrel is used for storing water, and the inner barrel is used for accommodating clothes. The inner barrel and the outer barrel are in communication to allow washing water to enter the inner barrel. The inner barrel rotates according to a certain law, enabling the clothes to come into full contact with the washing water and realizing the washing of the clothes. After washing is completed, the inner barrel rotates, causing some of the water on the clothes to be thrown out under the action of centrifugal force, realizing the dehydration of the clothes. By adding an air supply assembly with dehumidification and temperature rise functions, a clothes drying processing mode can be added to the clothes processing device, making the clothes processing device function as a washing and drying integrated machine.

[0008] In addition, the clothes processing device provided by the above technical solution of the present invention also has the following additional technical features:

[0009] In a possible design, the connecting member includes a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion. At least a part of the first connecting portion fits on the surface of the air supply assembly, and the first connecting portion extends towards the housing; the second connecting portions are located at both ends of the first connecting portion, and the second connecting portions are connected to the housing.

[0010] In this design, it is specifically defined that the connecting member includes a first connecting portion that at least partially fits on the surface of the air supply assembly, and a second connecting portion for connecting to the housing. The second connecting portion is specifically two, respectively located at both ends of the first connecting portion to reliably connect the first connecting portion to the housing. Since there is no gap between the first connecting portion and the air supply assembly, the space occupied in the thickness direction of the first connecting portion can be reduced, which helps to achieve a compact layout. For the case where the air supply assembly and the connecting member are located at the top of the barrel assembly, the overall height of the laundry treating apparatus can be specifically reduced. In addition, the contact area between the first connecting portion and the air supply assembly can be increased, the reliability of their connection can be improved, and the risk of the air supply assembly falling off from the connecting member can be reduced. On the one hand, this can reduce the risk of damage to the air supply assembly and injury to the assembler during the assembly process, and helps to improve the assembly efficiency. On the other hand, it can ensure the reliable connection between the air supply assembly and the housing during the subsequent use of the laundry treating apparatus, and guarantee the use reliability of the product.

[0011] In addition, the first connecting portion also protrudes from the air supply assembly and extends towards the housing. Since there is often a gap between both ends of the air supply assembly and the housing, by making the first connecting portion extend towards the housing, on the one hand, the connection between the connecting member and the housing can be ensured, and on the other hand, both ends of the first connecting portion can protrude from the air supply assembly, which can be held by the assembler or an automated assembly device during assembly, and can facilitate the overall handling and movement of the air supply assembly during the assembly process, making assembly convenient.

[0012] It can be understood that at least a part of the first connecting portion fits on the surface of the air supply assembly. Here, the at least a part can be a part along the extending direction of the first connecting portion or a part along the extending width direction of the first connecting portion.

[0013] In a possible design, the first connecting portion has a flanging that bends in a direction away from the air supply assembly.

[0014] In this design, the first connecting portion is provided with a flanging, specifically the first flanging. Since both ends of the first connecting portion are connected to the second connecting portion, the first flanging is specifically located at the side of the first connecting portion that is not connected to the second connecting portion, that is, at the two long sides of the first connecting portion, which is exactly the position that is likely to come into contact with the hand of the assembler or an automated assembly device during the assembly process. By providing the first flanging at these positions and specifically bending in a direction away from the air supply assembly, on the one hand, it can prevent the straight edge from scratching the hand of the assembler, and on the other hand, it can increase the contact area between the first connecting portion and the hand of the assembler, reduce the pressure on the contact surface, facilitate the assembler to hold, and thus improve the assembly efficiency. Further, the side of the second connecting portion that is not connected to the first connecting portion has a second flanging that bends in a direction away from the air supply assembly.

[0015] In a possible design, at least a part of the connecting member is recessed away from the air supply assembly.

[0016] In this design, since the air supply assembly as a whole has a certain weight, and the connecting member serves as a gripping structure during the assembly process, it will bear the gravity of the air supply assembly during the handling of the air supply assembly. By making at least part of the structure of the connecting member recessed away from the air supply assembly, the overall structural strength of the connecting member can be increased in terms of shape, the load-bearing capacity of the connecting member can be improved, and the risk of the connecting member being damaged during the assembly process and thus causing the air supply assembly to fall off can be reduced.

[0017] In a possible design, the first connecting portion is recessed away from the air supply assembly.

[0018] In this design, it is specifically defined that the first connecting portion of the connecting member is recessed. Since the first connecting portion is directly connected to the air supply assembly and is also the part held during the assembly process, the structural strength requirements for the first connecting portion are relatively high. By making the first connecting portion form a recess, the load-bearing capacity of the first connecting portion can be improved, and recesses may not be formed in other parts, thus simplifying the structure of the connecting member while meeting the load-bearing requirements, which helps to reduce the production difficulty of the connecting member and improve the production efficiency.

[0019] In a possible design, the second connecting portion extends from the end connected to the first connecting portion towards the barrel assembly and bends towards or away from the first connecting portion.

[0020] In this design, by designing the second connecting portion as a bent structure, on the one hand, it can ensure that there is a certain contact area between the second connecting portion and the housing, which helps to improve the connection reliability between the connecting member and the housing, and further improve the connection reliability between the air supply assembly and the housing. On the other hand, it can increase the structural strength at the connection between the second connecting portion and the first connecting portion, reduce the risk of fracture at the connection between the second connecting portion and the first connecting portion, and help to improve the connection reliability of the connecting member.

[0021] Specifically, when the second connecting portion bends away from the first connecting portion, the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion form a Z-shaped structure, and the second connecting portion is exposed and within the visual field and operation range of the assembler, which can be conveniently connected to the housing and helps to improve the assembly efficiency. When the second connecting portion bends towards the first connecting portion, the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion form a C-shaped structure, which is also an implementation manner of the present invention.

[0022] In a possible design, the number of connecting members is at least two, and at least two connecting members are arranged in parallel at intervals.

[0023] In this design, it is specifically defined that there are at least two connecting members arranged side by side at intervals, which can not only share the weight of the air supply component, reduce the risk of damage to the connecting members, but also increase the number of connecting parts with the housing, helping to improve the connection reliability between the connecting members and the housing, and further improving the connection reliability between the air supply component and the housing.

[0024] In a possible design, the projection of the extension center line of the connecting member in the horizontal plane intersects with the projection of the central axis of the barrel assembly in the horizontal plane.

[0025] In this design, the extension direction of the connecting member is specifically defined. The barrel assembly has a clothing inlet connected to its cavity for the user to put clothes into the cavity through the clothing inlet. The central axis of the barrel assembly specifically passes through the clothing inlet, and the space on the side where the clothing inlet of the barrel assembly is located is narrow. Therefore, the air supply component and the connecting member need to be arranged on the surrounding side surfaces of the barrel assembly avoiding the clothing inlet, and for the convenience of layout, the air supply component as a whole needs to extend approximately along the circumferential direction of the barrel assembly. By making the connecting member extend in a direction intersecting with the projection of the central axis of the barrel assembly in the horizontal plane, that is, making the connecting member not extend in the direction of the projection of the central axis of the barrel assembly in the horizontal plane in the horizontal plane, on the one hand, it can make the extension direction of the connecting member match the extension direction of the air supply component, helping to increase the connection reliability between the connecting member and the air supply component and reducing the risk of the air supply component falling off from the connecting member. On the other hand, the clothing inlet is located at the front panel of the housing. Making the connecting member not extend along the central axis direction of the barrel assembly can prevent the connecting member from interfering with the panel, helping to reduce the risk of damage to the panel and ensuring the appearance beauty of the clothing treatment device.

[0026] Specifically, the clothing treatment device is a drum - type washing and drying all - in - one machine, the clothing inlet is located at the front panel of the housing, and a control panel is provided above the clothing inlet. The housing also includes two support beams, which are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the front panel. The connecting member extends in the left - right direction, and its two ends are respectively connected to a support beam, and the connecting member forms a cross beam.

[0027] In a possible design, the air supply component further includes an evaporator and a condenser. The evaporator is located in the circulation channel; the condenser is located in the circulation channel and is connected to the evaporator.

[0028] In this design, it is specifically defined that the air supply component further includes an evaporator and a condenser located in the circulation channel. By arranging both heat exchangers in the circulation channel instead of introducing the air flow in the circulation channel into the space where the evaporator and the condenser are located, it can not only fully increase the heat exchange area between the air flow and the evaporator and the condenser, reduce the cold quantity dissipation of the evaporator and the heat quantity dissipation of the condenser, improve the heat exchange efficiency, optimize the dehumidification and temperature - rising effect, and shorten the time required to dry clothes, but also simplify the product structure, reduce the production cost, and improve the production efficiency.

[0029] Specifically, both the evaporator and the condenser have heat exchange tubes through which the refrigerant passes. When the air flow passes over the surface of the heat exchange tubes, heat can be exchanged with the refrigerant inside the tubes. The evaporator is located upstream of the condenser. The wet cold air entering the circulation channel from the barrel assembly first contacts the evaporator. The refrigerant in the evaporator evaporates and absorbs heat, taking away the heat of the wet cold air, causing the water vapor in the wet cold air to cool and condense into a liquid state, and then being discharged, which can reduce the humidity of the wet cold air and achieve dehumidification. The dehumidified dry cold air then contacts the downstream condenser. The refrigerant in the condenser condenses and releases heat, transferring heat to the dry cold air, causing the dry cold air to warm up and obtaining warm and dry air. These warm and dry air return to the barrel assembly again, which can promote the evaporation of moisture on the clothes, accelerate the drying of the clothes, and at the same time increase the air humidity in the barrel assembly. By repeating this cycle, the drying of the clothes can be achieved.

[0030] Furthermore, the air supply assembly further includes a filter element disposed upstream of the evaporator to reduce the risk of debris such as lint in the air flow entering the circulation channel adhering to the evaporator and the condenser, which helps to ensure reliable heat exchange between the evaporator and the condenser and improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0031] In a possible design, the air supply assembly further includes a base, a cover, and an air inlet pipe. Both the evaporator and the condenser are connected to the base; the cover is provided on the base, and the cover and the base enclose a receiving cavity; one end of the air inlet pipe forms an air inlet, and the other end of the air inlet pipe is connected to the receiving cavity. The air inlet pipe, the base, and the cover enclose a circulation channel.

[0032] In this design, the air supply assembly further includes a complete air inlet pipe connected to the barrel assembly, forming a partial channel of the circulation channel, which can not only be reliably assembled with the barrel assembly but also reliably introduce the air in the barrel assembly into the circulation channel. The air supply assembly also includes a base and a cover that enclose a receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity is connected to the air inlet pipe, which can also form a partial channel of the circulation channel. By splitting this partial channel into two parts, the base and the cover, it is convenient to first assemble the evaporator and the condenser onto the base and then cover the cover, making it easy to assemble the evaporator and the condenser. In addition, during subsequent maintenance, the evaporator and the condenser can also be conveniently repaired and replaced by disassembling the cover, which improves the operational convenience of subsequent maintenance and helps to extend the service life of the product. Specifically, the base and the air inlet pipe can be set as an integral structure, which helps to improve the reliability of their connection, enhances the assembly convenience, and reduces the risk of air leakage from the connection between the two, thereby reducing the risk of wet air eroding and damaging other electrical components inside the housing and helping to extend the service life of the product. The base and the cover can be connected by detachable fasteners such as screws and buckles, which not only ensures the reliability of the connection but also facilitates subsequent disassembly to achieve the maintenance of the evaporator and the condenser.

[0033] Specifically, at least part of the air inlet pipe is a corrugated pipe, which helps to improve the vibration resistance of the air supply component.

[0034] In a possible design, the connecting piece is connected to the cover body.

[0035] In this design, the cover is set away from the barrel assembly and exposed to the outside, which can provide a reliable installation space for the connector. In addition, the base is used to install the evaporator and condenser, and its structure is more complicated than that of the cover. By connecting the connector to the cover with a simpler structure, a structure connected to the connector, such as a screw hole, can be processed on the cover, so that the structural complexity of the base and the cover is more balanced, the difficulty of molding the base is reduced, and the yield rate is improved. Furthermore, compared with the air inlet pipe, the cover has a flat structure and a large surface area, which can increase the contact area with the connector, help improve the reliability of the connection with the connector, and reduce the risk of the air supply assembly falling off the connector.

[0036] In a possible design, the clothing processing device also includes: a compressor, which is located on the side of the barrel assembly away from the air supply assembly, the air inlet of the compressor is connected to the outlet of the evaporator, and the exhaust port of the compressor is connected to the inlet of the condenser.

[0037] In this design, the clothing treatment device also includes a compressor connected to the evaporator and the condenser, which can provide power for the circulation of the refrigerant, ensure the reliable operation of the evaporator and the condenser, and ensure the drying effect of the clothing treatment device. By arranging the larger compressor and the air supply component separately, the space inside the shell can be reasonably utilized for layout. While maintaining the original height of the whole machine or only slightly increasing the height of the whole machine, a heat pump system is introduced into the clothing treatment device to form a heat pump washer-dryer, which helps to improve the market competitiveness of the product.

[0038] Specifically, the air supply assembly is arranged in the top space of the shell, and the compressor is arranged in the bottom space of the shell. For example, the compressor is connected to the bottom plate of the shell, so that the compressor and the air supply assembly are arranged separately, which helps to reduce the space occupied by the top of the shell and control the height of the whole clothing processing device. In this case, the compressor and the bottom plate (specifically the base beam) are installed on the base of the clothing processing device as a large assembly, and the air supply assembly and the connecting piece are installed on the shell as a large assembly. The two large assemblies are connected through a pipe assembly to transfer refrigerant, which is convenient for maintenance and installation.

[0039] Further, the air supply component further includes a throttling device, such as a capillary tube, disposed between the outlet of the condenser and the inlet of the evaporator, forming a refrigerant circulation path of compressor → condenser → throttling device → evaporator → compressor, thereby constituting a heat pump system. Specifically, the refrigerant is compressed into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant in the compressor. The high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant is discharged from the compressor through the exhaust port of the compressor and then enters the condenser to condense and release heat. The high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant gradually turns into a high-pressure liquid refrigerant. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows out of the condenser and enters the throttling device for throttling to reduce the temperature and pressure. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant turns into a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixed refrigerant. Then, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flows out of the throttling device and enters the evaporator to absorb heat from the surrounding environment and continuously evaporate, turning into a low-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The low-pressure gaseous refrigerant flows out of the evaporator and then re-enters the compressor through the inlet of the compressor for compression, and so on in a cycle.

[0040] In a possible design, the air supply component further includes: a blower, the inlet of the blower is communicated with the outlet, the outlet of the blower is communicated with the barrel assembly, and the blower is connected to the connecting member.

[0041] In this design, the air supply component further includes a blower communicated between the circulation channel and the barrel assembly. That is to say, the outlet of the circulation channel is communicated with the barrel assembly through the air duct inside the blower. The outlet of the blower is specifically communicated with the gasket at the laundry inlet of the barrel assembly, which can reduce the structural damage to the outer barrel of the barrel assembly. By providing the blower, it can provide power for the circulation of the air flow and can plan the air flow direction. In the case where the air supply component includes the aforementioned evaporator and condenser, it can guide the air flow to pass through the evaporator first and then through the condenser, ensuring that the temperature of the air returning to the barrel assembly is relatively high to ensure the laundry drying effect. By specifically arranging the blower at the outlet, a negative pressure can be formed at the outlet, and the pressure difference is used to guide the air flow to flow from the inlet to the outlet, ensuring the stability and reliability of the air flow direction. Specifically, the blower includes a blower housing and an impeller located inside the blower housing, and further includes a motor for driving the impeller to rotate. The inlet and outlet of the blower are specifically the inlet and outlet of the blower housing.

[0042] In addition, the blower is relatively heavy. By connecting the blower to the connecting member, the connection reliability between the blower and the connecting member can be ensured, the risk of the blower falling off can be reduced, and the assembly efficiency can be improved.

[0043] Specifically, the connecting member is connected to both the blower and the circulation passage. During assembly, the circulation passage and the blower can be first connected to form a air supply assembly, then both the blower and the circulation passage are connected to the connecting member, and then the assembled integral structure is placed in position by means of the connecting member. Finally, the connecting member is connected to the housing to complete the assembly of the air supply assembly. Specifically, since the extension length of the circulation passage is relatively large, two screws can be used to connect the connecting member to the cover body forming the circulation passage, and one screw can be used to connect the connecting member to the blower. It can be understood that in order to achieve a compact layout, the blower may be arranged adjacent to the wall surface of the housing. Therefore, the part of the connecting member protruding from the blower may be relatively short and not convenient to hold. At this time, the assembler can hold the part of the connecting member protruding from the circulation passage of the air supply assembly with one hand and support the blower with the other hand to carry the air supply assembly.

[0044] Specifically, the laundry treatment device is a drum - type washing and drying integrated machine, and the air supply assembly is located at the top of the tub assembly, specifically behind the control panel. When viewed from the direction of the front panel facing the laundry treatment device, the blower is arranged on the right side of the circulation passage, the detergent box is arranged on the left side of the circulation passage, and the filter element is inserted into the circulation passage through the gap between the detergent box and the circulation passage. The control panel is correspondingly provided with an assembly opening for the detergent box and an insertion opening for the filter element. The detergent box is connected to the circulation passage and is installed together with the air supply assembly, which can not only achieve a reasonable layout but also help improve the assembly efficiency.

Detailed implementation manners

[0056] In order to be able to more clearly understand the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific implementation manners. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0057] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0058] The following refers to Figures 1 to 7 to describe a laundry treatment device provided according to some embodiments of the present invention.

[0059] As Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown in the figure, an embodiment of one aspect of the present invention provides a laundry treatment device, which includes a housing 100, a tub assembly 200, a air supply assembly 300, and a connecting member 400. Among them, the tub assembly 200 is located inside the housing 100, and the tub assembly 200 forms a cavity; the air supply assembly 300 includes a circulation channel 310, and both the air inlet and the air outlet of the circulation channel 310 are connected to the tub assembly 200; the connecting member 400 is connected to both the housing 100 and the air supply assembly 300, and the connecting member 400 is located on the side of the air supply assembly 300 away from the tub assembly 200.

[0060] For the laundry treatment device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the housing 100 forms its overall framework and can accommodate other structures. The tub assembly 200 inside the housing 100 forms a cavity, which can be used to accommodate the laundry to be processed. The air supply assembly 300 includes a circulation channel 310 connected to the tub assembly 200 to introduce the wet and cold air in the tub assembly 200 into the circulation channel 310. After dehumidification and temperature increase, the air is sent back into the tub assembly 200 again, and the drying of the laundry can be realized. By providing the connecting member 400 connected to the air supply assembly 300, the handling and movement of the air supply assembly 300 can be realized by holding the connecting member 400. Specifically, the connecting member 400 can be connected to the circulation channel 310. At the same time, since the connecting member 400 is specifically connected to the side of the air supply assembly 300 away from the tub assembly 200, that is, arranged outward, the connecting member 400 can always be exposed within the visual field and the operating range of the assembly personnel, and the connecting member 400 can also always be exposed within the operating range of the automated assembly equipment. That is, during the entire assembly process, the position of the air supply assembly 300 can be adjusted through the connecting member 400, which is convenient for operation. In addition, the connecting member 400 is also connected to the housing 100. After the position of the air supply assembly 300 is adjusted, the connecting member 400 can be directly fixedly connected to the housing 100, and the fixed connection between the air supply assembly 300 and the housing 100 can be realized, thus completing the assembly of the air supply assembly 300. For the laundry treatment device provided by the embodiment of the present invention, by providing the connecting member 400, the handling and assembly of the air supply assembly 300 can be directly completed by using the connecting member 400, which helps to greatly improve the assembly efficiency of the air supply assembly 300 and the housing 100 and improve the output of the laundry treatment device.

[0061] Specifically, the tub assembly 200 includes a stationary outer tub and an inner tub that can rotate relative to the outer tub. The outer tub is used for storing water, and the inner tub is used for accommodating the laundry. The inner tub and the outer tub are connected to each other to allow the washing water to enter the inner tub. The inner tub rotates according to a certain rule, which can make the laundry fully contact with the washing water and realize the washing of the laundry. After the washing is completed, the inner tub rotates, and part of the water on the laundry can be thrown out under the action of centrifugal force to realize the dehydration of the laundry. By adding an air supply assembly 300 with the functions of dehumidification and temperature increase, a drying treatment mode for the laundry can be added to the laundry treatment device, and the laundry treatment device can be used as a washing and drying integrated machine.

[0062] As Figure 2 and Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, the connecting member 400 includes a first connecting portion 410 and a second connecting portion 420. At least a part of the first connecting portion 410 is attached to the surface of the air supply assembly 300, and the first connecting portion 410 extends toward the housing 100; the second connecting portions 420 are located at both ends of the first connecting portion 410, and the second connecting portions 420 are connected to the housing 100.

[0063] In this embodiment, it is specifically defined that the connecting member 400 includes a first connecting portion 410 that is at least partially attached to the surface of the air supply assembly 300, and a second connecting portion 420 for connecting to the housing 100. The second connecting portions 420 are specifically two and are respectively located at both ends of the first connecting portion 410 to reliably connect the first connecting portion 410 to the housing 100. Since there is no gap between the first connecting portion 410 and the air supply assembly 300, the space occupied in the thickness direction of the first connecting portion 410 can be reduced, which helps to achieve a compact layout. For the case where the air supply assembly 300 and the connecting member 400 are located at the top of the barrel assembly 200, the overall height of the laundry treatment device can be specifically reduced. In addition, the contact area between the first connecting portion 410 and the air supply assembly 300 can be increased, the reliability of their connection can be improved, and the risk of the air supply assembly 300 falling off the connecting member 400 can be reduced. On the one hand, this can reduce the risk of damage to the air supply assembly 300 and injury to the assembly personnel during the assembly process, which helps to improve the assembly efficiency. On the other hand, it can ensure the reliable connection between the air supply assembly 300 and the housing 100 during the subsequent use of the laundry treatment device, ensuring the reliability of product use.

[0064] In addition, the first connecting portion 410 also protrudes from the air supply assembly 300 and extends toward the housing 100. Since there is often a gap between both ends of the air supply assembly 300 and the housing 100, by making the first connecting portion 410 extend toward the housing 100, on the one hand, the connection between the connecting member 400 and the housing 100 can be ensured, and on the other hand, both ends of the first connecting portion 410 can protrude from the air supply assembly 300, which can be held by the assembly personnel or automated assembly equipment during assembly, and can facilitate the overall handling and movement of the air supply assembly 300 during the assembly process, facilitating assembly.

[0065] It can be understood that at least a part of the first connecting portion 410 is attached to the surface of the air supply assembly 300, and this at least a part can be either a part along the extending direction of the first connecting portion 410 or a part along the extending width direction of the first connecting portion 410.

[0066] In some embodiments, the first connecting portion 410 has a flanging that bends in a direction away from the air supply assembly 300.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first connecting portion 410 is provided with a flange, specifically a first flange 412. Since both ends of the first connecting portion 410 are connected to the second connecting portion 420, the first flange 412 is specifically located at the side of the first connecting portion 410 that is not connected to the second connecting portion 420, that is, as Figure 7 shown, it is located at the two long sides of the first connecting portion 410, which is exactly the position that is likely to come into contact with the hands of the assembler or the automated assembly equipment during the assembly process. By providing the first flange 412 at these positions and specifically bending it in a direction away from the air supply assembly 300, on the one hand, it can prevent the straight edge from scratching the hands of the assembler, and on the other hand, it can increase the contact area between the first connecting portion 410 and the hands of the assembler, reduce the pressure on the contact surface, facilitate the assembler's grasping, and thus improve the assembly efficiency. Further, the side of the second connecting portion 420 that is not connected to the first connecting portion 410 has a second flange 422 that is bent in a direction away from the air supply assembly 300.

[0068] In some embodiments, at least a part of the connecting member 400 is recessed in a direction away from the air supply assembly 300.

[0069] In this embodiment, since the air supply assembly 300 as a whole has a certain weight, the connecting member 400, as the holding structure during the assembly process, will bear the gravity of the air supply assembly 300 during the process of carrying the air supply assembly 300. By making at least part of the structure of the connecting member 400 recessed in a direction away from the air supply assembly 300, the overall structural strength of the connecting member 400 can be increased in terms of shape, the load-bearing capacity of the connecting member 400 can be improved, and the risk of the connecting member 400 being damaged during the assembly process and thus causing the air supply assembly 300 to fall off can be reduced.

[0070] As Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown, in some embodiments, the first connecting portion 410 is recessed in a direction away from the air supply assembly 300.

[0071] In this embodiment, it is specifically defined that the first connecting portion 410 of the connecting member 400 is recessed. Since the first connecting portion 410 is directly connected to the air supply assembly 300 and is also the part held during the assembly process, the structural strength requirements for the first connecting portion 410 are relatively high. By making the first connecting portion 410 form a recess, the load-bearing capacity of the first connecting portion 410 can be improved, and the other parts do not need to form a recess, so as to simplify the structure of the connecting member 400 while meeting the load-bearing requirements, which helps to reduce the production difficulty of the connecting member 400 and improve the production efficiency.

[0072] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, the second connecting portion 420 extends from the end connected to the first connecting portion 410 towards the barrel assembly 200 and is bent towards or away from the first connecting portion 410.

[0073] In this embodiment, by designing the second connecting portion 420 as a bent structure, on the one hand, it can ensure that there is a certain contact area between the second connecting portion 420 and the housing 100, which helps to improve the connection reliability between the connecting member 400 and the housing 100, and further improves the connection reliability between the air supply assembly 300 and the housing 100. On the other hand, it can increase the structural strength at the connection between the second connecting portion 420 and the first connecting portion 410, reduce the risk of fracture at the connection between the second connecting portion 420 and the first connecting portion 410, and help to improve the connection reliability of the connecting member 400.

[0074] Specifically, as Figure 6 shown, when the second connecting portion 420 is bent away from the first connecting portion 410, the first connecting portion 410 and the second connecting portion 420 form a Z-shaped structure, and the second connecting portion 420 is exposed and within the visual range and operation range of the assembler, so that it can be conveniently connected to the housing 100, which helps to improve the assembly efficiency. When the second connecting portion 420 is bent towards the first connecting portion 410, the first connecting portion 410 and the second connecting portion 420 form a C-shaped structure, which is also an implementation manner of the present invention.

[0075] As Figure 2 and Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, the number of the connecting members 400 is at least two, and at least two connecting members 400 are arranged in parallel at intervals.

[0076] In this embodiment, it is specifically defined that there are at least two connecting members 400 arranged in parallel at intervals, which can not only share the weight of the air supply assembly 300, reduce the risk of damage to the connecting members 400, but also increase the number of connection parts with the housing 100, which helps to improve the connection reliability between the connecting members 400 and the housing 100, and further improves the connection reliability between the air supply assembly 300 and the housing 100.

[0077] As Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the projection of the extension center line of the connecting member 400 in the horizontal plane intersects with the projection of the central axis of the barrel assembly 200 in the horizontal plane.

[0078] In this embodiment, the extending direction of the connecting member 400 is specifically defined. The tub assembly 200 has a laundry inlet 202 communicating with its cavity, through which a user can put clothes into the cavity. The central axis of the tub assembly 200 specifically passes through the laundry inlet 202, and the space on one side where the laundry inlet 202 of the tub assembly 200 is located is narrow. Therefore, the air supply assembly 300 and the connecting member 400 need to be arranged on the circumferential side surfaces of the tub assembly 200 avoiding the laundry inlet 202. And for the convenience of layout, the air supply assembly 300 needs to extend approximately along the circumferential direction of the tub assembly 200. By making the connecting member 400 extend in a direction intersecting with the projection of the central axis of the tub assembly 200 in the horizontal plane, that is, making the connecting member 400 not extend along the projection direction of the central axis of the tub assembly 200 in the horizontal plane, on the one hand, the extending direction of the connecting member 400 can be matched with the extending direction of the air supply assembly 300, which helps to increase the connection reliability between the connecting member 400 and the air supply assembly 300 and reduce the risk of the air supply assembly 300 falling off from the connecting member 400. On the other hand, the laundry inlet 202 is located at the front panel of the housing 100. Making the connecting member 400 not extend along the central axis direction of the tub assembly 200 can prevent the connecting member 400 from interfering with the panel, which helps to reduce the risk of damage to the panel and ensures the aesthetic appearance of the laundry treatment device.

[0079] Specifically, as Figure 1 shown, the laundry treatment device is a drum type washing and drying integrated machine. The laundry inlet 202 is located at the front panel 110 of the housing 100, and a control panel 120 is provided above the laundry inlet 202. As Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown, the housing 100 further includes two support beams 130, which are respectively connected to the left and right sides of the front panel 110. The connecting member 400 extends in the left-right direction, and its two ends are respectively connected to a support beam 130. The connecting member 400 forms a cross beam.

[0080] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, the air supply assembly 300 further includes an evaporator 320 and a condenser 330. The evaporator 320 is located in the circulation channel 310; the condenser 330 is located in the circulation channel 310 and communicates with the evaporator 320.

[0081] In this embodiment, it is specifically defined that the air supply assembly 300 further includes an evaporator 320 and a condenser 330 located in the circulation channel 310. By arranging both heat exchangers in the circulation channel 310 instead of introducing the air flow in the circulation channel 310 into the space where the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330 are located, it is possible to fully increase the heat exchange area between the air flow and the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330, reduce the cold quantity dissipation of the evaporator 320 and the heat dissipation of the condenser 330, improve the heat exchange efficiency, optimize the dehumidification and temperature increase effect, shorten the time required to dry clothes, and at the same time simplify the product structure, reduce the production cost, and improve the production efficiency.

[0082] Specifically, both the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330 have heat exchange tubes through which the refrigerant passes. When the air flow passes over the surface of the heat exchange tubes, heat can be exchanged with the refrigerant inside the heat exchange tubes. The evaporator 320 is located upstream of the condenser 330. The wet and cold air entering the circulation channel 310 from the barrel assembly 200 first contacts the evaporator 320. The refrigerant in the evaporator 320 evaporates and absorbs heat, taking away the heat of the wet and cold air, causing the water vapor in the wet and cold air to cool and condense into a liquid state, and then discharging it, which can reduce the humidity of the wet and cold air and achieve dehumidification. The dehumidified dry and cold air then contacts the downstream condenser 330. The refrigerant in the condenser 330 condenses and releases heat, transferring heat to the dry and cold air, causing the dry and cold air to warm up, obtaining warm and dry air. These warm and dry air returns to the barrel assembly 200 again, which can promote the evaporation of moisture on the clothes, accelerate the drying of the clothes, and at the same time increase the air humidity in the barrel assembly 200. Repeating this cycle can achieve the drying of clothes.

[0083] Furthermore, as Figure 3 shown, the air supply assembly 300 further includes a filter element 340 provided upstream of the evaporator 320 to reduce the risk of impurities such as fluff mixed in the air flow entering the circulation channel 310 adhering to the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330, which helps to ensure the reliable heat exchange of the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330 and improve the heat exchange efficiency.

[0084] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, the air supply assembly 300 further includes a base 312, a cover 314 and an air inlet pipe 316. Both the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330 are connected to the base 312; the cover 314 is covered on the base 312, and the cover 314 and the base 312 enclose an accommodation cavity; one end of the air inlet pipe 316 forms an air inlet, and the other end of the air inlet pipe 316 is communicated with the accommodation cavity. The air inlet pipe 316, the base 312 and the cover 314 enclose the circulation channel 310.

[0085] In this embodiment, the air supply assembly 300 further includes a complete air inlet pipe 316 connected to the barrel assembly 200, forming a partial channel of the circulation channel 310, which can be reliably assembled with the barrel assembly 200 and can reliably introduce the air in the barrel assembly 200 into the circulation channel 310. The air supply assembly 300 also includes a base 312 and a cover 314 that surround a receiving cavity, and the receiving cavity is connected to the air inlet pipe 316, which can also form a partial channel of the circulation channel 310. By splitting this part of the channel into two parts, the base 312 and the cover 314, the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330 can be easily assembled on the base 312 first, and then the cover 314 is covered, so that the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330 are easy to assemble. In addition, during subsequent maintenance, the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330 can be easily repaired and replaced by removing the cover 314, which improves the convenience of subsequent maintenance and helps to extend the service life of the product. Specifically, the base 312 and the air inlet duct 316 can be set as an integrated structure, which helps to improve the reliability of the connection between the two, improves the convenience of assembly, and reduces the risk of air leakage from the connection between the two, thereby reducing the risk of humid air erosion and damage to other electrical components in the housing 100, which helps to extend the service life of the product. The base 312 and the cover 314 can be connected by detachable fasteners such as screws and buckles, which not only ensures the reliability of the connection, but also facilitates subsequent disassembly to achieve maintenance of the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330.

[0086] Specifically, Figure 6 As shown, at least a portion of the air inlet pipe 316 is a corrugated pipe, which helps to improve the vibration resistance of the air supply assembly 300.

[0087] like Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the connector 400 is connected to the cover 314 .

[0088] In this embodiment, the cover 314 is disposed away from the barrel assembly 200 and exposed to the outside, which can provide a reliable installation space for the connector 400. In addition, the base 312 is used to install the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330, and has a more complex structure relative to the cover 314. By connecting the connector 400 to the cover 314 with a simpler structure, a structure connected to the connector 400, such as a screw hole, can be processed on the cover 314, so that the structural complexity of the base 312 and the cover 314 is more balanced, the molding difficulty of the base 312 is reduced, and the yield rate is improved. Furthermore, relative to the air inlet pipe 316, the cover 314 has a flat structure and a large surface area, which can increase the contact area with the connector 400, help improve the connection reliability with the connector 400, and reduce the risk of the air supply assembly 300 falling off the connector 400.

[0089] like Figure 4As shown, in some embodiments, the laundry treating apparatus further includes: a compressor 500, located on a side of the tub assembly 200 away from the air supply assembly 300. An air inlet of the compressor 500 is communicated with an outlet of the evaporator 320, and an air outlet of the compressor 500 is communicated with an inlet of the condenser 330.

[0090] In this embodiment, the laundry treating apparatus further includes a compressor 500 communicated with the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330, specifically as Figure 4 shown, connected through a pipeline assembly 600, which can provide power for the circulation of the refrigerant, ensure the reliable operation of the evaporator 320 and the condenser 330, and guarantee the drying effect of the laundry treating apparatus. By separately arranging the relatively large compressor 500 from the air supply assembly 300, the space inside the housing 100 can be reasonably utilized for layout. When maintaining the original overall height of the machine or only slightly increasing the overall height of the machine, a heat pump system is introduced into the laundry treating apparatus to form a heat pump washing and drying integrated machine, which helps to improve the market competitiveness of the product.

[0091] Specifically, the air supply assembly 300 is arranged in the top space of the housing 100, and the compressor 500 is arranged in the bottom space of the housing 100. For example, the compressor 500 is connected to the bottom plate 140 of the housing 100, so that the compressor 500 and the air supply assembly 300 are separately arranged, which helps to reduce the occupation of the top space of the housing 100 and control the overall height of the laundry treating apparatus. At this time, the compressor 500 and the bottom plate 140 (specifically the base cross beam) are installed on the base of the laundry treating apparatus as a large assembly, and the air supply assembly 300 and the connecting member 400 are installed on the housing 100 as a large assembly. The two large assemblies are connected through the pipeline assembly 600 to transfer the refrigerant, which is convenient for maintenance and installation.

[0092] Further, the air supply assembly 300 further includes a throttling device disposed between the outlet of the condenser 330 and the inlet of the evaporator 320, such as a capillary tube, to form a refrigerant circulation path of compressor 500 → condenser 330 → throttling device → evaporator 320 → compressor 500, constituting a heat pump system. Specifically, the refrigerant is compressed into a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant in the compressor 500. The high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant is discharged from the compressor 500 via the exhaust port of the compressor 500 and then enters the condenser 330 for condensation and heat release. The high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant gradually turns into a high-pressure liquid refrigerant. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant flows out of the condenser 330 and enters the throttling device for throttling to reduce the temperature and pressure. The high-pressure liquid refrigerant turns into a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixed refrigerant. Then, the low-temperature and low-pressure refrigerant flows out of the throttling device and enters the evaporator 320 to absorb heat from the surrounding environment and continuously evaporate, turning into a low-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The low-pressure gaseous refrigerant flows out of the evaporator 320 and then re-enters the compressor 500 via the intake port of the compressor 500 for compression, and so on in a cycle.

[0093] As Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, the air supply assembly 300 further includes: a fan 350. The inlet and the outlet of the fan 350 are in communication. The outlet of the fan 350 is in communication with the barrel assembly 200. The fan 350 is connected to the connecting member 400.

[0094] In this embodiment, the air supply assembly 300 further further includes a fan 350 connected between the circulation channel 310 and the barrel assembly 200. That is to say, the outlet of the circulation channel 310 is in communication with the barrel assembly 200 via the air duct inside the fan 350. As Figure 5 shown, the outlet of the fan 350 is specifically in communication with the gasket 204 at the laundry inlet 202 of the barrel assembly 200, which can reduce the structural damage to the outer barrel of the barrel assembly 200. By providing the fan 350, power can be provided for the circulation of the air flow, and the air flow direction can be planned. In the case where the air supply assembly 300 includes the aforementioned evaporator 320 and condenser 330, the air flow can be guided to pass through the evaporator 320 first and then through the condenser 330 to ensure that the air temperature returning to the barrel assembly 200 is relatively high to ensure the clothing drying effect. By specifically disposing the fan 350 at the outlet, a negative pressure can be formed at the outlet, and the air flow can be guided to flow from the inlet to the outlet by using the pressure difference to ensure the stability and reliability of the air flow direction. Specifically, the fan 350 includes a fan housing and an impeller located inside the fan housing, and further includes a motor for driving the impeller to rotate. The inlet and the outlet of the fan 350 are specifically the inlet and the outlet of the fan housing.

[0095] In addition, the fan 350 is relatively heavy. By connecting the fan 350 to the connecting member 400, the connection reliability between the fan 350 and the connecting member 400 can be ensured, the risk of the fan 350 falling off can be reduced, and the assembly efficiency can be improved.

[0096] Specifically, as Figure 2 and Figure 6 shown, the connecting member 400 is connected to both the fan 350 and the circulation channel 310 at the same time. During assembly, the circulation channel 310 and the fan 350 can be first connected to form the air supply assembly 300, and then both the fan 350 and the circulation channel 310 are connected to the connecting member 400. Then, with the help of the connecting member 400, the connected overall structure is placed in place, and finally the connecting member 400 is connected to the housing 100 to complete the assembly of the air supply assembly 300. Specifically, since the extension length of the circulation channel 310 is relatively large, two screws can be used to connect the connecting member 400 to the cover body 314 that constitutes the circulation channel 310, and one screw can be used to connect the connecting member 400 to the fan 350. It can be understood that in order to achieve a compact layout, the fan 350 may be arranged adjacent to the wall surface of the housing 100. Therefore, the part of the connecting member 400 protruding from the fan 350 may be relatively short and not convenient to hold. At this time, the assembler can hold the part of the connecting member 400 protruding from the circulation channel 310 of the air supply assembly 300 with one hand and support the fan 350 with the other hand to carry the air supply assembly 300.

[0097] Specifically, as Figures 1 to 4 shown, the laundry treatment device is a drum - type washing and drying integrated machine, and the air supply assembly 300 is located at the top of the tub assembly 200, specifically behind the control panel 120. Looking from the direction of the front panel 110 facing the laundry treatment device, the fan 350 is arranged on the right side of the circulation channel 310, and the detergent box 700 is arranged on the left side of the circulation channel 310. The filter element 340 is inserted into the circulation channel 310 through the gap between the detergent box 700 and the circulation channel 310. The control panel 120 is correspondingly provided with an assembly opening 122 for the detergent box 700 and an insertion opening 124 for the filter element 340. The detergent box 700 is connected to the circulation channel 310 and is installed together with the air supply assembly 300, which can not only achieve a reasonable layout but also help improve the assembly efficiency.
