[0044] Such as Figures 1 to 6As shown in the figure, in the embodiment of the present invention, a water injection box structure of a washing machine and a washing machine are introduced. The water injection box structure includes a water injection box 100 fixedly installed on the washing machine. The incoming water flow from the washing machine water inlet pipe flows into the water injection box 100, and the water flowing through the water injection box 100 is injected into the barrel of the washing machine through the water outlet, so as to wet and wash the load placed in the barrel. At the same time, a pull-out dosing box 200 is installed on the water injection box 100. The dosing box 200 has a dosing cavity 20 for the dosing of additives such as washing powder, detergent, flavor enhancer, disinfectant, etc. At least a part of the washing machine incoming water flow flowing through the water injection box 100 flows through the dosing cavity 20, and the additives to be added in the dosing cavity 20 are flushed into the washing machine barrel along with the water flow to process the load in the barrel. As Figure 5 As shown in the figure, a plurality of dosing cavities 20 can be provided on the dosing box 200, and each dosing cavity is used for the dosing of different types of additives. A plurality of water injection cavities 3 are provided on the water injection box 100, and each water injection cavity 3 is opened opposite to each dosing cavity 20. Each water injection cavity 3 is respectively provided with a water injection port 4 communicating with the corresponding dosing cavity 20. Preferably, each water injection cavity 3 also respectively has a water inlet 5, and each water inlet 5 is controllably connected and disconnected with the washing machine water inlet pipe.
[0045] In the embodiment of the present invention, the washing machine is preferably a pulsator washing machine. The upper part of the shell of the pulsator washing machine is provided with a control panel base. An outer barrel with a barrel opening at the top is installed inside the shell. An inner barrel that can be driven to rotate by a motor is installed inside the outer barrel. A pulsator that can rotate independently and can rotate together with the inner barrel can also be installed in the inner barrel. The water injection box 100 is installed on the control panel base of the pulsator washing machine. A clothing dosing port corresponding to the barrel opening is provided in the middle of the control panel base. The front end of the water injection box 100 is correspondingly communicated with the clothing dosing port. The water outlet of the water injection box 100 faces downward, so that the water flow flowing out of the water outlet of the water injection box 100 can be directly sprayed into the inner barrel through the barrel opening of the inner barrel, thereby realizing the purpose of the washing machine to fill water into the barrel through the water injection box 100.
[0046] As Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, in the embodiment of the present invention, the water injection box 100 includes a housing 1. The inside of the housing 1 is hollow to form a chamber for the washing machine incoming water flow to flow through. The bottom of the housing 1 is provided with a water outlet, and the washing machine incoming water flow flowing into the housing 1 flows out through the water outlet and flows into the washing machine barrel.
[0047] In the embodiment of the present invention, the housing 1 of the water injection box can be a housing structure with an opening only at the front end, so that the opening can allow the dosing box 200 to be inserted into the water injection box 100 from front to back or pulled out of the water injection box 100 from back to front.
[0048] As Figures 1 to 5As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the top of the water injection box 100 of the washing machine is composed of an upper cover 2. An injection cavity 3 is provided inside the upper cover 2. An inlet 5 is provided on the injection cavity 3, and the inlet 5 is connected to the washing machine water inlet pipe to introduce the washing machine inlet water flow into the injection cavity 3. Generally, the inlet 5 of the injection cavity 3 is arranged on one side of the water injection box 100; the inlet 5 includes a joint exposed on one side of the water injection box 100, and the joint is connected to the inside of the injection cavity 3 through a waterway integrally arranged on the housing 1 and / or the upper cover 2 of the water injection box 100. At the same time, a water injection port 4 is provided at the bottom of the injection cavity 3 and opens downward. The water injection port 4 is connected to a placement cavity 20 provided on the placement box 200, so that the water injection port 4 can flow the inlet water flow introduced into the injection cavity 3 into the placement cavity 20 of the placement box 200, and use the inlet water flow to wash the additives in the placement cavity 20 to achieve the purpose of adding the additives together with the inlet water flow.
[0049] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the injection cavity 3 is on the upper cover 2 above the placement box 200, so that when the placement box 200 is pulled and displaced, it does not interfere with the injection cavity 3, and at the same time, the water flow flowing out of the injection cavity 3 from the water injection port 4 can directly flow into the placement cavity 20 provided on the placement box 200 under the action of gravity. In the embodiment of the present invention, a downwardly concave groove-shaped structure is provided on the upper cover 2 of the placement box 200, and a cover body 21 is buckled on the open top of the groove-shaped structure, so that the upper cover 2 and the cover body 21 jointly enclose the injection cavity 3.
[0050] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, a water injection port 4 for injecting water into the placement box 200 is provided at the bottom of the injection cavity 3; a diversion port 6 that is directly connected to the hollow cavity of the water injection box 100 without passing through the placement box 200 is also provided in the injection cavity 3.
[0051] In the present invention, by providing a diversion port 6 on the injection cavity 3, the inlet water flow flowing through the placement cavity can be diverted from the diversion port 6; furthermore, by providing the diversion port 6, the injection cavity 3 can be connected to the outside through the diversion port 6, so that the air pressure in the injection cavity 3 is kept consistent with the inner cavity of the water injection box 100 to achieve the purpose of correspondingly adjusting the air pressure in the injection cavity 3; at the same time, by providing a special diversion port 6 on the injection cavity 3, the overflow water flow can be diverted to avoid the occurrence of the situation where the water flow overflows from the top of the water injection box 100 to the periphery when the water inlet flow rate of the water injection box 100 is too fast, thereby preventing the occurrence of the situation of water mixing between different cavities.
[0052] As Figures 1 to 4 and Figure 6As shown in the figure, in the embodiment of the present invention, a water baffle 7 for adjusting the opening degree of the water injection port 4 according to the change of the water pressure in the water injection cavity 3 is provided on the water injection box 100. In the present invention, by arranging a movable water baffle 7 at the water injection port 4 and using the impact of the water pressure in the water injection cavity 3 to adjust the position of the water baffle 7, the purpose of correspondingly adjusting the opening degree of the water injection port 4 according to the change of the water pressure in the water injection cavity 3 is realized, and thus a remarkable technical progress of regulating the water pressure and stabilizing the flow of the incoming water flow of the water injection box 100 is achieved.
[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, the water baffle 7 includes a water blocking part 71 movably installed at the water injection port 4. An opening 72 opposite to the water injection port 4 is provided on the water blocking part 71. During the movement of the water blocking part 71, the water injection port 4 is blocked or opened, thereby realizing the adjustment of the opening degree of the water injection port 4.
[0054] As Figure 3 shown, when there is no water flow in the water injection cavity 3 or the water pressure is relatively small, the water baffle 7 is in an initial state. The opening 72 on the water baffle 7 completely overlaps with the water injection port 4, and the water injection port 4 is not blocked by the water baffle 7. At this time, the opening degree of the water injection port 4 is the largest;
[0055] As Figure 4 shown, when the water pressure in the water injection cavity 3 is relatively large, the water baffle 7 is impacted by the flowing water in the water injection cavity 3 and moves toward the side of the water inlet 5 away from the water injection cavity 3, so that the opening 72 on the water baffle 7 only partially overlaps with the water injection port 4, and a part of the water injection port 4 is blocked by the water baffle 7. At this time, the opening degree of the water injection port 4 becomes smaller.
[0056] Through the above settings, when the water pressure in the water injection cavity 3 changes, the water baffle 7 moves, so that the opening degree of the water injection port 3 can automatically increase or decrease accordingly, and the use effect of automatically stabilizing and regulating the water injection flow rate of the water injection box structure can be achieved.
[0057] As Figures 1 to 4 and Figure 6 shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the water blocking part 71 is a flat plate structure provided on the bottom wall of the water injection cavity 3. An opening 72 having the same shape and size as the water injection port 4 is provided in the middle of the water blocking part 71. The outer peripheral part of the water blocking part 71 is a solid that can correspondingly block the water injection port 4. The water blocking part 71 is movably installed in the water injection cavity 3 along the direction parallel to the bottom wall of the water injection cavity 3. During the movement of the water blocking part 71, the area of the overlapping region between the opening 72 and the water injection port 4 changes accordingly, so as to achieve the purpose of correspondingly adjusting the opening degree of the water injection port 4.
[0058] In the embodiment of the present invention, the water injection port 4 is a rectangular opening with a width of 2L in the left - right direction of the water injection box 100, and the opening on the water blocking part 71 is also a rectangular opening of the same shape. At the same time, the water blocking plate 71 can only move relatively in the left - right direction of the water injection box 100, so as to use the left and right sides of the opening 72 of the water blocking plate 71 to partially or completely block the water injection port 4, and further achieve the purpose of correspondingly adjusting the opening degree of the water injection port 4.
[0059] In the embodiment of the present invention, the water inlet 5 of the water injection cavity 3 is arranged on the left side of the water injection port 4. When the water blocking plate 7 is impacted by the water flow flowing from the water inlet 5 to the water injection port 4, the water blocking plate 7 will bear the impact force of the water flow and move to the right side of the water injection port 4, so that the left side of the water blocking plate 7 correspondingly blocks the water injection port 4. In the embodiment of the present invention, the water blocking part 71 of the water blocking plate 7 is a rectangular plate structure, and an opening 72 is provided in the middle of the rectangular water blocking part 71. The width of the left part of the opening 72 is not less than L, so as to achieve the automatic adjustment purpose that the opening degree of the water injection port 4 is smaller when the water inlet pressure is larger and the opening degree of the water injection port 4 is larger when the water inlet pressure is smaller, and further achieve the remarkable technical progress of stabilizing the water flow flowing into the water injection box 100.
[0060] In the embodiment of the present invention, the water blocking plate 7 includes a water blocking rib 73 arranged opposite to the water inlet 5 of the water injection cavity 4, so that the water blocking rib 73 can bear the impact of the water flow flowing from the water inlet to the water injection port 4 in the water injection cavity 3, and drive the water blocking plate 7 to move in the left - right direction by using the impact force of the water flow.
[0061] In the embodiment of the present invention, the water blocking rib 73 is located on the side of the water blocking part 71 far from the water inlet 5; that is, when the water inlet 5 of the water injection cavity 4 is arranged on the left side of the water blocking plate 7, a water blocking rib 73 extending vertically upward from bottom to top is arranged on the right side of the water blocking plate 7; preferably, the water blocking rib 73 extends vertically upward, and the upper end of the water blocking rib 73 is in limit contact with the top wall of the water injection cavity 3 to ensure that the water blocking rib 73 cannot move up and down.
[0062] At the same time, in the embodiment of the present invention, in order to further ensure that the water blocking plate 7 can only move in the left - right direction of the water injection box 100, the following settings can be made:
[0063] A limiting groove extending in the left - right direction and recessed downward is provided on the bottom wall of the water injection cavity 3. The water injection port 4 is arranged on the bottom wall of the limiting groove. The water blocking plate 7 is installed in the limiting groove. The width of the water blocking plate 7 in the front - back direction of the water injection cavity 3 is equal to the width of the limiting groove, so that the front and back sides of the water blocking plate 7 are respectively limited by the inner walls of the limiting groove, and further ensure that the water blocking plate 7 is guided by the limiting groove and can only move in the left - right direction of the water injection box 100 (not marked in the drawings).
[0064] Such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, an elastic structure 74 is connected to the side of the retaining rib 73 away from the water inlet 5. The two ends of the elastic structure 74 are respectively connected to the retaining rib 73 and the inner wall of the water injection cavity 3, so as to utilize the elastic structure 74 to provide an elastic acting force on the water retaining plate 7, driving the water retaining plate 7 to reset to the initial position where the opening 72 completely coincides with the water injection port 4. Furthermore, it is ensured that after the impact acting force of the incoming water flow in the water injection cavity 3 on the water retaining plate 7 is cancelled or reduced, the water retaining plate 7 can be reset to the position where the opening degree of the water injection port 4 is the largest or increased under the action of the elastic structure 74, thereby achieving the purpose of using the water retaining plate 7 to adjust its position corresponding to the incoming water pressure.
[0065] In the embodiment of the present invention, the elastic structure 74 can be any existing structure, but it is necessary to ensure that it can provide an elastic driving force for the water retaining plate 7 along the left-right direction of the water injection box 100. For example, the following settings are made:
[0066] In the embodiment of the present invention, the elastic structure 74 is a telescopic rod, and the telescopic direction of the telescopic rod is the same as the connection direction of the water inlet 5 and the water injection port 4; the telescopic rod includes a sleeve and a plug rod along the connection direction of the water inlet 5 and the water injection port 4. The fixed end of the sleeve is installed on the retaining rib of the water retaining plate 7, the fixed end of the plug rod is provided on the inner wall of the water injection cavity 3, and the suspended end of the plug rod is coaxially inserted into the suspended end of the sleeve. A coaxially arranged spring is provided inside the sleeve, and the two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the suspended end of the plug rod and the fixed end of the sleeve. Thus, an elastic acting force for adjusting the opening degree direction of the water injection port 4 is exerted on the water retaining plate 7 by the spring. (Not marked in the drawings)
[0067] As Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, a diversion port 6 is further provided in the water injection cavity 3. The diversion port 6 is located in the part of the water injection cavity 3 downstream of the water injection port 4, so as to divert the incoming water in the water injection cavity 3 from the diversion port 6 when the opening degree of the water injection port 4 decreases and the water pressure at the water inlet 5 is too high, avoiding the occurrence of the situation that the water pressure in the water injection cavity 3 is too high and overflows outward from all around.
[0068] In the embodiment of the present invention, the cross-sectional area ratio of the diversion port 6 to the water injection port 4 is 4:6, so that the aperture of the diversion port 6 is smaller than that of the water injection port 4. While enabling the incoming water in the water injection cavity 3 to be diverted through the diversion port 6, the smaller-aperture water injection port 4 can also avoid the situation that the water pressure in the water injection cavity 3 is too low and most of the incoming water in the water injection cavity 3 flows out through the diversion port 6. In the embodiment of the present invention, the diversion port 6 can be one or multiple. When the diversion port 6 is multiple, the ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of each diversion port 6 to the cross-sectional area of the water injection port 4 is 4:6.
[0069] Further preferably, in order to further avoid the situation that when the water inlet pressure is too small, the water entering the water injection chamber 3 is diverted from the diversion port 6 and the water pressure at the water injection port 4 cannot reach the set water pressure, the following settings are made: the bottom wall of the water injection chamber 3 from the water injection port 4 to the diversion port 6 is an upwardly inclined plane, and the inclination angle of the inclined plane is greater than or equal to 0.5 degrees, so as to use a relatively high setting of the diversion port 6 to prevent the water entering the water injection chamber 3 from flowing towards the diversion port 6, thereby guiding the water flow in the water injection chamber 3 to converge at the water injection port 4 and increasing the water pressure at the water injection port 4.
[0070] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, the water injection chamber 3 is divided into a first part 31 and a second part 32 extending in different directions. One end of the first part 31 is connected to one end of the second part 32, and a water injection port 4 is provided at the connection. The other end of the first part 31 is provided with a water inlet 5, and the other end of the second part 32 is provided with a diversion port 6.
[0071] Preferably, in the embodiment of the present invention, the extending directions of the first part 31 and the second part 32 are perpendicular to each other. The first part 31 extends along the left-right direction of the water injection box 100, and the second part 32 extends along the front-back direction of the water injection box 100. The left end of the first part 31 is provided on the left side of the water injection box 100 and is connected to the water inlet 5, and the rear end of the second part 32 is provided on the rear side of the water injection box 100 and is provided with the diversion port 6.
[0072] Preferably, in the embodiment of the present invention, the bottom wall of the first part 31 of the water injection chamber 3 is lower than the bottom wall height of the second part 32, and the height of the water injection port 4 is lower than the height of other parts in the water injection chamber 3, so as to guide the water flow in the water injection chamber 3 to converge into the first part 31 as much as possible and ensure that the water entering the water injection chamber 3 can flow out from the water injection port 4.
[0073] In the embodiment of the present invention, the extending direction of the retaining rib 72 provided on the water retaining plate 7 is parallel to the extending direction of the second part 32 of the water injection chamber 3, so that part of the water flow blocked by the retaining rib 73 of the water retaining plate 72 is diverted into the second part 32 and diverted from the diversion port 6, thereby achieving the effect of correspondingly adjusting the water pressure in the water injection chamber 3.
[0074] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention.
