[0038] Embodiment 1

[0039] The present invention provides a mini drying washing machine, as shown in Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 . It includes a washing machine body 1, and the washing machine body 1 includes a laundry component 100 and a water tank 200; the laundry component 100 is used for clothing treatment; the water tank 200 is used to inject washing water and provide washing water for the laundry component 100. In addition, the water tank 200 also functions as a counterweight to reduce the shaking degree of the washing machine body 1 during operation; the water tank 200 is provided with a cavity 230 for accommodating washing water; wherein,

[0040] The water tank 200 is disposed on one side of the laundry assembly 100 where the first air outlet 121 is provided; the first air outlet 121 is communicated with the cavity 230. After the drying is started, the humid and hot air in the air duct of the laundry assembly 100 is introduced into the cavity 230, and the air cooled by the inner wall of the cavity 230 and / or the contained washing water is discharged outside the washing machine body 1. When the washing machine body 1 starts the drying program, the heating element in the laundry assembly 100 heats the cold air to form hot air, which is introduced into the inner cylinder 130 under the action of the blower. The hot air absorbs the moisture in the washed clothes to form humid and hot air and then is discharged from the inner cylinder 130. For a conventional large washing machine, the washing machine cools the humid and hot air through a condenser provided inside to form condensed water for discharge, or the air after being condensed by the condenser is heated by the heating element to form hot air for recycling. For a mini washing machine, due to its small overall size and small internal space, it is difficult to accommodate a condenser with a large size, so the humid and hot air discharged from the inner cylinder 130 during the drying process is directly discharged into the external environment by a direct discharge method. On the one hand, this will cause an increase in the humidity and temperature of the environment where the mini washing machine is located, affecting the user experience and the service life of the mini washing machine; on the other hand, the discharged humid and hot air is easy to condense and form beads on the outer wall of the mini washing machine, resulting in poor visual and user experience, and increasing the labor cost for the user to clean the surface of the mini washing machine. By first introducing the humid and hot air generated during the drying of the inner cylinder 130 into the water tank 200, cooling by contacting the inner wall of the water tank 200 and / or exchanging heat energy with the cold air in the cavity 230 and / or exchanging heat energy with the washing water in the cavity 230, part of the humid and hot air is cooled to form condensed water and flows into the washing water, and part of the air is discharged to the external environment through the assembly place of the cover 210 and the box body 220 of the water tank 200 after the temperature is reduced to a certain extent, reducing the influence of the air discharged during the drying of the washing machine body 1 on the humidity of the external environment.

[0041] In one embodiment, the laundry assembly 100 is fixedly connected to the water tank 200. Further, the housing of the washing machine body 1 respectively forms the outer shell 120 of the laundry assembly 100 and the box body 220 of the water tank 200. When adding washing water is needed, move the entire washing machine body 1 to the waterway setting place, or place the washing machine body 1 in a place provided with a waterway, and align the waterway water outlet with the opening position of the water tank 200. In another embodiment, the laundry assembly 100 is detachably connected to the water tank 200. Since the washing machine body 1 is small in size and the water tank 200 is detachably connected to the laundry assembly 100, when adding washing water is needed, the water tank 200 can be removed for adding water, and the washing machine body 1 can be placed arbitrarily in a convenient place for the user. When the waterway is provided at the position where the washing machine body 1 is placed, the water outlet of the waterway can be aligned with the opening of the water tank 200. When adding washing water is needed, just open the cover 210; when the waterway is not provided at the position where the washing machine body 1 is placed, when adding washing water is needed, just remove the water tank 200.

[0042] In one embodiment, the water tank 200 includes a cover body 210 and a box body 220 provided with an opening, which jointly clamp to form the cavity 230. The cover body 210 is exposed, and the opening is opened or closed by the movement of the cover body 210; the box body 220 and the cover body 210 jointly clamp to form a cavity 230 for accommodating washing water; that is, washing water is supplemented into the cavity 230 through the opening. The cover body 210 is provided to prevent dust from accumulating in the cavity 230 and contaminating the washing water.

[0043] Furthermore, an inner concave handle 211 is formed on the outer surface of the cover body 210 for the user to hold, so as to facilitate opening the cover body 210.

[0044] In one embodiment, the water tank 200 is in a long and narrow shape, which can meet the demand for the amount of water in the inner cylinder 130 while reducing the cross-sectional size of the water tank 200 and shortening the front-to-back distance of the washing machine body 1. When the washing machine body 1 is in use, usually the door body 110 at the opening of the inner cylinder 130 faces the user, shortening the front-to-back distance of the washing machine body 1, reducing the requirement for the front-to-back distance of the placement position of the washing machine body 1, and providing an applicable site for the washing machine body 1.

[0045] In one embodiment, the first air outlet 121 is provided on the back of the outer shell 120 of the laundry assembly 100, that is, the water tank 200 is located on the back of the laundry assembly 100, which improves the symmetry of the front structure of the washing machine body 1 and enhances the aesthetics; in addition, after the hot and humid air discharged from the inner cylinder 130 is cooled to a certain extent by the inner wall of the water tank 200 or the cold air or the washing water contained therein, it overflows from the gap at the assembly place of the cover body 210 and the box body 220 of the water tank 200. Since the cooling of the hot and humid air in the cavity 230 by the water tank 200 is natural cooling, the discharged air still has a certain humidity at this time. The air with a certain humidity discharged from the washing machine body 1 spreads from the back of the washing machine body 1. If some condensation forms water droplets, they exist on the back of the washing machine body 1, which does not affect the aesthetics, and the amount of these water droplets is small and they evaporate quickly naturally, having little impact on the humidity of the environment where the washing machine body 1 is located.

[0046] In one embodiment, the outer shell 120 of the laundry assembly 100 is provided with a first air inlet 122; the first air inlet 122 is communicated with the cavity 230 to introduce part of the air in the cavity 230 into the inner cylinder 130 of the laundry assembly 100 to compensate for the internal pressure of the inner cylinder 130. During the drying process, since the hot and humid air in the inner cylinder 130 is continuously discharged, the amount of air in the inner cylinder 130 becomes less and the pressure is lower than the outside, forming a state similar to a vacuum. By providing the first air inlet 122 communicated with the cavity 230 on the outer shell 120, the air in the cavity 230 is introduced into the inner cylinder 130 to supplement the air in the inner cylinder 130 to compensate for the reduction of the internal pressure of the inner cylinder 130.

[0047] Further, the box body 220 of the water tank 200 is provided with a second air inlet 221 and a second air outlet 222, which are respectively communicated with the first air outlet 121 and the first air inlet 122; a baffle is arranged on the inner wall of the cavity 230, and is located between the second air inlet 221 and the second air outlet 222. Since the first air outlet 121 passes the humid and hot air into the cavity 230 through the second air inlet 221, in order to reduce the increase in the humidity inside the inner cylinder 130 caused by the humid and hot air passing through the second air outlet 222 and the first air inlet 122 in sequence and then entering the inner cylinder 130 through the corresponding air ducts. A baffle is arranged between the second air inlet 221 and the second air outlet 222 to prevent the humid and hot air introduced from the second air inlet 221 from flowing towards the second air outlet 222.

[0048] Further, in one embodiment, the number of the baffles is at least two; two adjacent baffles are arranged in a staggered manner and are respectively distributed near the top end and the bottom end of the cavity 230 to form a curved air flow channel. The humid and hot air discharged from the inner cylinder 130 enters the cavity 230. In addition to exchanging heat by contacting the inner wall of the cavity 230 and the washing water stored in the cavity 230 to achieve cooling, when the humid and hot air flows in the cavity 230, part of the humid and hot air enters the air flow channel, contacts the baffle and exchanges heat with the baffle, so as to accelerate the cooling effect of the water tank 200 on the humid and hot air discharged from the inner cylinder 130. In addition, the arrangement of a plurality of baffles can preferably separate the second air inlet 221 and the second air outlet 222 to prevent the humid and hot air in the cavity 230 from entering the inner cylinder 130 again through the second air inlet 221. Specifically, as Figure 4 shown, Figure 4 FIG. is a schematic diagram of the distribution relationship of a plurality of baffles on the first side wall 223 of the water tank 200 provided with the second air inlet 221 and the second air outlet 222 in one embodiment. The baffle can be arranged on the first side wall 223, and the other side wall of the baffle can abut against the inner surface of the water tank 200 opposite to the first side wall 223 (not shown in the figure). The number of the baffles is five, including three first baffles 261 and two second baffles 262. The first baffle 261 is arranged near the top of the cavity 230, and the second baffle 262 is arranged near the bottom of the cavity 230. Since in one embodiment, the water tank 200 is in a long and narrow shape and the cavity 230 is in a curved shape, the width of the first baffle 261 is smaller than the width of the second baffle 262. In addition, in one embodiment, a handle 211 is formed by the concave of the cover body 210 of the water tank 200, and the space at the top of the cavity 230 is small. The shape of the first baffle 261 is in a bent shape (not shown in the figure) to make way for the convex structure on the inner surface of the handle 211.

[0049] Further, the washing machine body 1 further includes:

[0050] A first pipe for connecting the first air outlet 121 and the second air inlet 221;

[0051] A second pipe for connecting the second air outlet 222 and the first air inlet 122. The first air outlet 121 and the second air inlet 221 are connected through a sealed first pipe, and the second air outlet 222 and the first air inlet 122 are connected through a sealed second pipe, so as to prevent air from overflowing at the assembly joints between the first air outlet 121 and the second air inlet 221 or between the second air outlet 222 and the first air inlet 122 during the flow between the laundry assembly 100 and the water tank 200, resulting in dampness at the assembly gap between the laundry assembly 100 and the water tank 200. Further, when the laundry assembly 100 and the water tank 200 are detachably connected, the first pipe and the second pipe are arranged on the laundry assembly 100. When fixing the water tank 200, the first pipe and the second pipe are respectively inserted into the corresponding second air inlet 221 and second air outlet 222. Further, sealing rings are arranged at the second air inlet 221 and the second air outlet 222 to respectively seal the assembly joints between the first pipe and the second air inlet 221 and between the second pipe and the second air outlet 222.

[0052] In one embodiment, the water tank 200 is provided with a third air outlet; part of the air cooled in the cavity 230 is discharged through the third air outlet, and part is discharged through the assembly joint between the cover body 210 and the box body 220. When there is a large amount of hot and humid air generated during the drying process of the washing machine body 1, and the assembly gap between the box body 220 and the cover body 210 is small and the exhaust speed is low, if the air in the cavity 230 is not discharged in time, it will cause the internal pressure of the cavity 230 to be too high and prone to danger. By providing the third air outlet, the air inside the cavity 230 is discharged in time. On the one hand, the use safety of the washing machine body 1 is improved, and on the other hand, the air content inside the cavity 230 is reduced to prevent the hot and humid air from contacting the air that has been cooled, so as not to affect the condensation effect of the water tank 200 on the hot and humid air.

[0053] In one embodiment, the washing machine body 1 is used to wash small-sized items such as inner clothes and socks. The inner drum can be used to handle 0.5 - 1.5 Kg of dry clothes. The cavity 230 of the water tank 200 can accommodate at least the water volume for one washing and two rinses. After accommodating the required capacity of water, the water level in the cavity 230 is below the assembly gap between the cover body 210 and the box body 220 to avoid the washing water from overflowing outside the washing machine body 1; the water level in the cavity 230 is also below the second air inlet 221 and the second air outlet 222 to prevent the water in the water tank 200 from flowing into the inside of the washing machine assembly 100. Further, the capacity of the water tank 200 is 2 - 10 L. Preferably, the capacity of the water tank 200 is 3 - 6 L.

[0054] In one embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, a boss 123 is formed by extending the bottom of the outer shell 120 of the laundry component 100 towards the water tank 200, and the drainage pipe of the washing machine body 1 is placed in the groove at the bottom of the boss 123. Placing the drainage pipe in the groove at the bottom of the boss 123 improves the aesthetics, and the drainage pipe does not occupy the internal space of the laundry component 100, facilitating the arrangement and layout of the internal structure of the laundry component 100 and being conducive to the miniaturized design of the washing machine body 1. In addition, by placing the water tank 200 on the boss 123, the self-weight of the water tank 200 exerts a downward force on the boss 123, thereby forming a counterweight module for the laundry component 100 to balance the washing machine body 1.

[0055] In one embodiment, the water tank 200 can also be connected to an automatic water filling device. Then, the washing machine body 1 needs to be placed in a site with a water circuit, and the automatic water filling device can keep the remaining amount of washing water in the water tank 200 constant to avoid the phenomenon of insufficient water supply.

[0056] In another embodiment, the water tank 200 is filled with water manually. The washing machine body 1 can be placed at any convenient location for the user. A water level sensor is provided in the cavity 230 to sense the change in the water level at the position where the water level sensor is located. By providing a water level sensor in the water tank to sense the change in the water level at the corresponding position in the cavity, it indicates the remaining amount of washing water in the water tank to the user, so as to avoid the situation where the water storage in the water tank is insufficient to supply the water required for the current operation mode of the washing machine body, resulting in the laundry component running empty, causing waste of electric energy and equipment depreciation.

[0057] Furthermore, in one embodiment, one water level sensor is arranged at the bottom of the cavity 230 to sense whether there is water or no water in the cavity 230.

[0058] Further, in an embodiment, at least one of the water level sensors is disposed on the sidewall of the cavity 230 to sense the water level condition at the height corresponding to the respective water level sensor. Further, at least two of the water level sensors disposed on the sidewall of the cavity 230 have different heights to respectively indicate the water volumes corresponding to at least two different water usage modes of the laundry assembly 100. Specifically, the washing machine body 1 usually has conventional washing, rinsing, and quick washing modes, and different modes require different amounts of water. According to the different laundry treatment modes of the washing machine body 1 that require water, the corresponding water level sensors are respectively matched to clarify the water holding capacity of the water tank 200 according to the water consumption of the corresponding laundry treatment mode. When the washing machine body 1 has three laundry treatment modes of conventional washing, rinsing, and quick washing that require different amounts of water, the number of water level sensors disposed on the sidewall of the cavity 230 is three, which are arranged longitudinally staggered. The three water level sensors can be disposed on the same sidewall or divided into two groups and disposed on both sidewalls respectively, as long as they can respectively sense the water level heights required for the three laundry treatment modes. It should be understood that when the washing machine body 1 has four, five or more laundry treatment modes with different water consumption, the corresponding number of water level sensors can be longitudinally arranged according to customer needs.

[0059] In an embodiment, the water level sensor includes a water level probe or an infrared liquid level sensor. When the water level sensor is a water level probe, when the water level in the cavity 230 is not lower than the height where the water level probe is located, the water level probe contacts the water and the circuit is turned on, sending a feedback signal of the presence of water to the control board; when the water level in the cavity 230 is lower than the height where the water level probe is located, the circuit is turned off when the water level probe does not contact the water, and the control board has no signal feedback from the water level probe. When the water level sensor is an infrared liquid level sensor, when the water level in the cavity 230 is not lower than the height where the infrared liquid level sensor is located, when the infrared liquid level sensor contacts the water, the light emitted by the emitting end of the infrared liquid level sensor is refracted, and the receiving end of the infrared liquid level sensor cannot receive light or receives a small amount of light, then the control board has no signal feedback from the infrared liquid level sensor; when the water level in the cavity 230 is lower than the height where the infrared liquid level sensor is located, the infrared liquid level sensor does not contact the water, and the light emitted by its emitting end will be reflected from its lens structure to the receiving end of the infrared liquid level sensor, and the receiving end receives the light information and sends a feedback of the absence of water at the position where the infrared liquid level sensor is located to the control board.

[0060] Specifically, in an embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the infrared liquid level sensor 240 is disposed at the bottom of the cavity 230, and the water level probe is disposed on the sidewall of the cavity 230. When the washing machine body 1 has three laundry treatment modes of conventional washing, rinsing, and quick washing that require different amounts of water, the first water level probe 251, the second water level probe 252, and the third water level probe 253 are longitudinally distributed from top to bottom on the sidewall of the cavity 230 to respectively sense the water consumption corresponding to rinsing, conventional washing, and quick washing.

[0061] Further, in one embodiment, the water tank 200 is fixedly connected to the laundry assembly 100. After the wire harness of the water level sensor in the water tank 200 passes through the box body 220 and the outer shell 120 in sequence, it is electrically connected to the control board in the outer shell 120, so as to send the water level change information sensed by the water level sensor to the control board, and the control board controls the indicating assembly to prompt the user to add water in time.

[0062] In another embodiment, the water tank 200 is detachably connected to the laundry assembly 100. After the water tank 200 enters the water path of the laundry assembly 100, the water tank 200 and the laundry assembly 100 are electrically connected through an electrical connector (not shown in the figure), so that the water level sensor is electrically connected to the control board in the outer shell 120, realizing signal transmission between the water level sensor and the control board, and sending the water level change information sensed by the water level sensor to the control board. The detachable connection between the water tank 200 and the laundry assembly 100 enables the washing machine body not to be restricted by the presence or absence of a water path at the application site, and can be placed at any position according to the user's usage habit. Moreover, the water tank 200 is convenient to disassemble, lighter than the washing machine body 1, convenient to add water, has multiple application scenarios, and is convenient for users to use. The electrical connector is an electrical plug-in connector, including a matching male terminal and female terminal. The two terminals are respectively arranged on the box body 220 of the water tank 200 and the outer shell 120 of the laundry assembly 100. The terminal arranged on the box body 220 of the water tank 200 is electrically connected to the water level sensor at a corresponding position in the water tank 200, and the terminal arranged on the outer shell 120 of the laundry assembly 100 is electrically connected to the control board inside it. When the male terminal and the female terminal are docked, the circuit connection between the water tank 200 and the laundry assembly 100 is turned on. When the water tank 200 is detached from the laundry assembly 100, the electrical connection between the box body 220 and the control board in the laundry assembly 100 is disconnected; when the water tank 200 is fixed to one side of the laundry assembly 100 after adding water, the electrical connection between the box body 220 and the control board in the laundry assembly 100 is turned on, further enabling the water level sensor to be docked with the control board. When the water level condition sensed by the water level sensor changes, the water level condition change information is transmitted to the control board, and the control board then controls the relevant indicating assembly to send water level indication information to the user, so that the user can know the current water level condition. Further, the current water level condition includes whether there is water or no water at the position where the corresponding water level sensor is located.

[0063] Further, the electrical connector includes a female terminal connector embedded in the box body 220 and a male terminal connector protruding from the outer shell 120 of the laundry assembly 100. The male terminal connector is provided with a plurality of metal probes, and the female terminal connector is provided with a plurality of jacks. After the plurality of metal probes of the male terminal connector are inserted relative to the corresponding jacks, when the male terminal connector is inserted into the female terminal connector, the water tank 200 is electrically connected to the laundry assembly 100, so that the control board is electrically connected to the water level sensor, and the control board can receive the water level condition change information sent by the water level sensor. The female terminal connector in the form of a jack is arranged on the box body 220, which is convenient for the placement of the water tank 200 after the water tank 200 is detached from one side of the laundry assembly 100.

[0064] Further, a water level sensor is arranged at the bottom of the cavity 230 to sense the presence or absence of water in the cavity 230. One connector of the electrical connector corresponding to the water level sensor is arranged at the bottom of the box body 220. In order to facilitate the placement of the water tank 200, the female terminal connector (not shown in the figure) arranged on the box body 220 is embedded in the bottom wall of the box body 220, so that the arrangement of the electrical connector connector does not affect the placement of the water tank 200. The male terminal connector (not shown in the figure) of the box body 220 that matches the female terminal connector electrically connected to the water level sensor arranged at the bottom of the cavity 230 is arranged on the boss 123, so that the water level sensor arranged at the bottom of the cavity 230 is electrically connected to the control board in the laundry assembly 100.

[0065] Further, at least two water level sensors arranged on the side wall of the cavity 230 have different heights to respectively indicate the water volumes corresponding to at least two different water usage modes of the laundry assembly 100, and each water level sensor corresponds to and matches an electrical connector.

[0066] In one embodiment, the laundry assembly 100 is provided with an indication assembly for indicating the water level change in the cavity 230. Further, the indication assembly includes a flashing light indication assembly or a sound indication assembly; the indication assembly includes different indication states for respectively indicating the water level changes corresponding to the corresponding water level sensors. Further, the number of water level sensors is at least two. When the indication assembly is a flashing light indication assembly, the flashing light indication assembly can distinguish and indicate the water level changes sensed by different water level sensors by different flashing frequencies, different color lights flashing, or gradually changing color lights flashing. When the indication assembly is a sound indication assembly, the sound indication assembly can distinguish and indicate the water level changes sensed by different water level sensors by the number of warning sounds or different pronunciations of the warning sounds.

[0067] In one embodiment, as Figure 1As shown, the washing machine body 1 further includes a plurality of transport bolts 600, which are inserted from the outer shell 120 of the washing assembly 100 to limit the outer drum; that is, when assembling the washing machine body 1, the plurality of transport bolts 600 are installed so that the outer drum is fixed relative to the outer shell 120. During transportation, the outer drum moves synchronously with the outer drum, so that the outer drum and the inner drum 130 do not shake in the outer shell 120, thereby avoiding collision and damage, and reducing the impact of the bumps during transportation on the spring damping structure in the washing assembly 100. In one embodiment, the water tank 200 is detachably mounted on one side of the washing assembly 100, and the transport bolts 600 are arranged on a surface of the washing assembly 100 facing the water tank 200; the transport bolts 600 are removed to allow the water tank 200 to be detachably mounted on one side of the washing assembly 100. Specifically, the outer shell 120 is provided with a first mounting hole, and the outer drum is provided with a corresponding second mounting hole. The transport bolts pass through the first mounting hole and the second mounting hole in sequence to fix the outer shell 120 and the outer drum. The water tank 200 is detachably connected to the washing assembly 100. When the washing machine body 1 is placed on a site without water access, when the water tank 200 needs to be filled with water, the water tank 200 can be removed for filling. There is no need to carry the washing machine body 1, and there is no need to fill water in an additional container and then add water to the water tank 200. The washing machine body 1 can be placed at any location according to the user's usage habits, with many application scenarios and convenient use. During the transportation of the washing machine body 1, the washing assembly 100 and the water tank 200 are transported in a separated state. When the user uses the washing machine body 1, the water tank 200 needs to be installed on one side of the washing machine assembly 100. Since the transportation bolts 600 are arranged on a surface of the washing machine assembly 100 facing the water tank 200, the transportation bolts 600 need to be removed before installing the water tank 200, otherwise the transportation bolts 600 will affect the installation of the water tank 200. That is, through the installation method of the detachable water tank 200, the limitation of the installation position of the transportation bolts 600 and the limitation of the setting of the transportation bolts 600 are combined to play a fool-proof role in indicating that the transportation bolts 600 should be removed before using the washing machine body 1.

[0068] In one embodiment, the outer end of the transport bolt 600 is flush with the outer surface of the washing component 100. When the user needs to install the water tank 200, the transport bolt 600 on the outer surface of the washing component 100 can be seen to remind the user of the existence of the transport bolt 600 and to remove the transport bolt 600 in time.

[0069] In another embodiment, the outer end of the transport bolt 600 protrudes from the outer surface of the washing assembly 100. When the user needs to install the water tank 200, if the transport bolt 600 is not removed in time, the end of the transport bolt 600 protruding from the outer surface of the washing assembly 100 will interfere with the installation of the water tank 200, and the water tank 200 cannot be installed, so that the user must remove the transport bolt 600 to install the water tank 200.

[0070] In one embodiment, the transport bolt 600 sequentially extends into the housing 120, the frame of the laundry assembly 100, and the corresponding mounting holes on the outer tub to achieve fixation. Specifically, the frame of the laundry assembly 100 is provided with a third mounting hole. After the transport bolt 600 sequentially passes through the first mounting hole of the housing 120, the third mounting hole of the frame, and the second mounting hole of the outer tub, the housing 120, the frame, and the outer tub are fixed. The transport bolt 600 is fixed through the frame of the laundry assembly 100 to reduce the extrusion of the transport bolt 600 on the housing 120 under the gravity of the outer tub during transportation, and reduce the requirement for the structural strength of the housing 120 by the washing machine body 1.

[0071] In one embodiment, the number of the transport bolts 600 is at least three. At least three transport bolts 600 are used to fix at least two parts of the outer tub to form a stable fixing effect.

[0072] In one embodiment, the washing machine body 1 is provided with a detection device (not shown in the figure) for detecting whether the water tank 200 is installed in place; the detection device is electrically connected to the control board in the laundry assembly 100. When the detection device detects that the water tank 200 is installed in place, the control board issues an unlocking washing program. By detecting the installation position of the current water tank 200 relative to the laundry assembly 100 through the detection device, if the water tank 200 is not installed in place, the control board issues an instruction that the washing machine body 1 cannot operate, so as to prevent the overall imbalance of the washing machine body 1 when the water tank 200 is not installed in place, and further prevent certain dangers from occurring when the washing machine body 1 is operated.

[0073] Further, the detection device includes an electromagnetic inductor disposed within the laundry assembly 100 and a magnetic member disposed within the water tank 200; the electromagnetic inductor and the magnetic member are in corresponding positions; through the electromagnetic induction between the electromagnetic inductor and the magnetic member, it is detected whether the water tank 200 is installed in place. Specifically, when installing the water tank 200, as the distance between the water tank 200 and the laundry assembly 100 decreases, the distance between the magnetic member on the water tank 200 and the electromagnetic inductor within the laundry assembly 100 also decreases synchronously, and then the magnetic field sensed by the electromagnetic inductor becomes larger and larger; when the water tank 200 is installed in place, the position of the magnetic member relative to the electromagnetic inductor is the correct installation position. At this time, the magnetic field sensed by the electromagnetic inductor is a preset target value, and the information obtained by the control board is the information that the magnetic field sensed by the electromagnetic inductor is the preset target value, and then an instruction to unlock the washing program and run the washing machine body 1 can be issued. When the user starts a related program of the washing machine body 1, the washing machine body 1 operates normally. Otherwise, when the information obtained by the control board is that the magnetic field sensed by the electromagnetic inductor is not equal to the preset target value, the control board issues an instruction that the washing machine body 1 cannot be run. When the user starts a related program of the washing machine body 1, the washing machine body 1 cannot be started, so as to prevent danger caused by the washing machine body 1 operating in an overall unbalanced state due to the water tank 200 not being installed in place, and ensure the safety of using the washing machine body 1 while facilitating the filling of water in the water tank 200.

[0074] In one embodiment, the number of the detection devices is at least two; the matching results of at least two assembly positions are used to detect whether the water tank 200 is installed in place, so as to improve the assembly accuracy of the water tank 200 and reduce the assembly difficulty of the water tank 200.

[0075] In one embodiment, the water tank 200 and the laundry assembly 100 are detachably connected. The outer surface of the water tank 200 facing the laundry assembly 100 is provided with a buckle structure for buckling the magnetic member, so that the installation of the magnetic member is convenient. As the number of times of loading and unloading the water tank 200 increases, the magnetism of the magnetic member decreases. By installing the magnetic member through the buckle structure, it is convenient to replace the magnetic member to ensure the normal operation of the detection device. Further, the outer surface of the water tank 200 facing the laundry assembly 100 is recessed to form a second recessed portion, and the buckle structure is disposed within the second recessed portion. When the magnetic member is buckled within the buckle structure, the outer surfaces of the magnetic member and the buckle structure facing the laundry assembly 100 are located within the second recessed portion, so as to prevent the installation of the magnetic member from interfering with the assembly of the water tank 200 and the laundry assembly 100. Further, in one embodiment, after the water tank 200 is connected to the laundry assembly 100, the outer surface of the water tank 200 facing the laundry assembly 100 abuts against the outer surface of the laundry assembly 100, so as to improve the neatness and aesthetics of the housing of the laundry assembly 100.

[0076] In one embodiment, the electromagnetic inductor is disposed on the inner wall of the housing 120 of the laundry assembly 100 near the water tank 200. To improve the neatness of the outer surface of the housing 120, the electromagnetic inductor is hidden in the housing 120, and the installation is convenient. First, the electromagnetic inductor is installed on the inner wall of the housing 120 near the water tank 200, and then the housing 120 is installed outside the frame of the washing machine body 1.

[0077] Further, the electromagnetic inductor is disposed close to the boss 123. The internal space of the housing 120 of the laundry assembly 100 is used to accommodate essential laundry components such as the drum assembly, the mechanical drive assembly, and the pipes. The essential components are arranged compactly in the space near the top of the housing 120; since the washing machine body 1 is a mini washing machine with a small overall size, the internal space of the housing 120 is small, and the free space near the top of the housing 120 is small. By disposing the electromagnetic inductor close to the boss 123, that is, the electromagnetic inductor is disposed close to the bottom of the inner wall of the housing 120 facing the water tank 200, the installation of the drum assembly, the mechanical drive assembly, and the pipes is avoided from being interfered.

[0078] In one embodiment, the laundry assembly 100 is provided with an alarm that gives a prompt when the detection device detects that the water tank 200 is not installed in place. When the water tank 200 is not installed in place and the user turns on the washing machine body 1, the non-operation instruction issued by the control board causes the washing machine body 1 not to start. To prevent the user from being unable to timely find that the washing machine body 1 has not started, resulting in the laundry to be washed not being cleaned for a long time and affecting the replacement of the user's clothes, by setting an alarm, the user is prompted that the water tank 200 is not installed in place, so as to timely adjust the installation of the water tank 200 and thus timely process the laundry to be washed.

[0079] Further, the alarm includes a light alarm and / or a sound alarm. Specifically, the alarm form of the light alarm includes but is not limited to flashing light alarm or constant light alarm. A light window is provided on the housing 120 of the laundry assembly 100, and a light strip is correspondingly provided in the light window to implement the light alarm mode. The sound alarm can be provided with a speaker on the housing 120 to implement the sound alarm mode. In addition, the light alarm mode and the sound alarm mode can also be used in combination to improve the warning intensity.

[0080] Further, the laundry component 100 is provided with an iron component; the iron component corresponds to the magnetic component in position to guide the installation of the water tank 200. When the water tank 200 is installed, as the distance between the water tank 200 and the laundry component 100 approaches, the magnetic component on the water tank 200 attracts the iron component on the laundry component 100 to assist in the installation of the water tank 200. The magnetic component cooperates with the electromagnetic inductor to achieve the installation positioning of the water tank 200; the magnetic component cooperates with the iron component to assist in the installation of the water tank 200, and then the water tank 200 is fixed to the laundry component 100 through a corresponding connection structure to reduce the assembly difficulty of the water tank 200.

[0081] In an embodiment, during the drying process of the washing machine body 1, the humid and hot air generated by the inner drum 130 is discharged through the first air outlet 121 of the drying air duct. A humidity sensor is provided near the first air outlet 121 of the drying air duct to collect the humidity at the position and transmit it to the control board in the laundry component 100; when the threshold value of the humidity reaches the preset stop threshold value for drying, the control board issues a stop instruction to configure the drying component in the laundry component 100 to terminate drying. Specifically, as the execution time of the drying program passes, the water content of the clothes in the inner drum 130 decreases, and thus the humidity of the air entering the drying air duct from the inner drum 130 decreases. When the dryness of the clothes in the inner drum 130 reaches the requirement, the humidity near the first air outlet 121 of the drying air duct decreases to a certain value. By using the humidity sensor to collect the humidity at its position in real time, when the humidity decreases to the drying stop threshold value, it indicates that the dryness of the clothes in the inner drum 130 reaches the requirement, and thus the drying operation can be stopped. For a mini washing machine, using a humidity sensor near the first air outlet 121 of the drying air duct to judge dryness replaces the traditional solution of separately setting a temperature sensor at the air inlet and air outlet of the inner drum 130, which is convenient to install and occupies less space.

[0082] Further, a lint collector (not shown in the figure) is provided at the first air outlet 121. When the clothes in the inner drum 130 are processed, substances, lint such as hair and silk on the clothes are usually washed out. If directly discharged into the water tank 200, it will pollute the water tank 200. By providing a lint collector at the first air outlet 121 to collect the lint discharged from the inner drum 130, the lint collector can be cleaned regularly to reduce the pollution of the water tank 200 caused by the discharge of the humid and hot air from the inner drum 130.

[0083] Further, a lint filter (not shown in the figure) is provided at the air inlet of the drying air duct. When the washing machine body 1 executes the drying program, fresh air from the outside is introduced through the air inlet, and the heating device 1822 heats the fresh air to form hot air for drying the wet clothes in the inner tub 130. Since there are sundries such as flying dust or hair in the external environment, the sundries in the external environment are easily sucked in during the process of the drying air duct sucking in fresh air. Therefore, a lint filter is provided at the air inlet of the drying air duct to filter the incoming fresh air, so as to prevent the drying air duct from sucking in sundries and causing pollution to the drying air duct and even the inner tub. In addition, in this embodiment, due to the setting of the air inlet, the fresh air in the inner tub 130 is replenished in time, so the housing 120 of the laundry assembly 100 does not need to be provided with a first air inlet 122, and the box body 220 does not need to be provided with a second air outlet 222 to replenish fresh air to the inner tub 130 through the water tank 200.

[0084] In one embodiment, a damper (not shown in the figure) is provided at the first air outlet 121; the damper is closed when the drying stops to prevent the water vapor in the cavity 230 from entering the drying air duct. When the drying stops, the fan of the drying assembly stops running, and the air in the drying air duct and the cavity 230 will exchange. Since the cavity 230 is used to store water, the stored water causes the cavity 230 to have a certain humidity. In order to prevent the water vapor in the cavity 230 from entering the inner tub 130 through the drying air duct and causing the easily dried clothes in the inner tub 130 to get damp, a damper is provided. When the drying stops, the damper is closed to disconnect the drying air duct from the cavity 230.

[0085] In one embodiment, as Figure 6 、 Figure 7 shown, the washing machine body 1 further includes a frame body 160 for supporting the internal components of the washing machine body 1. The frame body 160 includes a frame 161 and a door frame 162 fixed to the front of the frame 161; the water tank 200 is disposed inside the frame body 160 or detachably disposed on one side of the housing 120 covering the outside of the frame body 160; wherein,

[0086] The frame 161 supports the barrel assembly of the washing machine body 1. The barrel assembly is used to process the clothes to be washed. The barrel assembly includes an inner tub, an outer tub, and a front tub. The inner tub is used to place the clothes to be washed. The outer tub, the front tub, and the outer wall of the inner tub together form a temporary water storage space during the washing process of the washing machine body 1 to inject washing water mixed with a washing medium or clean water for rinsing into the inner tub.

[0087] The door frame 162 is provided with a notch 1621 for opening the entrance of the inner tub 130 of the washing machine body 1, forming a storage opening for the cylindrical component of the washing machine body 1; the door frame 162 is provided with a panel structure for fixing the door body of the washing machine body 1, and the housing wrapped around the frame body 161 and the panel structure together form the outer finish of the washing machine body 1. When installing the outer finish of the washing machine body 1, directly install the door body of the outer finish on the door frame 162. Without installing additional fixing parts on the frame body 160 to fix the door body, the door body with a certain weight can be firmly fixed, saving the space occupied by the fixing parts, which is beneficial to the miniaturized design of the washing machine body 1. According to the market demand for the appearance of the outer finish of the washing machine body 1, the panel structure of the corresponding door frame 162 can be designed accordingly.

[0088] In one embodiment, the door frame 162 has a plate-like structure to form a panel structure for fixing the door body, and the panel structure is provided with a fixing structure for installing the door body. Further, the fixing structure is an installation hole (not marked in the figure), that is, the panel structure of the door frame 162 is provided with installation holes, and the door body of the washing machine body 1 is fixed to the door frame 162 through the cooperation of fasteners and the installation holes.

[0089] In one embodiment, the frame body 160 is a plastic part or a sheet metal part. Specifically, when the frame body 160 is a plastic part, it is light and low in cost, and the frame body 160 can be integrally formed or formed by step-by-step injection molding. When the frame body 160 is a sheet metal part, the connection between the vertical rods and the horizontal rods of the frame body 161 can be connected by fasteners; it can also be integrally formed into a connecting rod including a horizontal rod and a vertical rod, and adjacent connecting rods are then connected by fasteners; similarly, the connection between the frame body 161 and the door frame 162 can be connected by fasteners, and the door frame 162 and the two vertical rods can be integrally formed into an integral structure.

[0090] In one embodiment, as Figure 6 、 Figure 10 shown, the frame body 161 has a cuboid structure, including a first vertical rod 1611 and a second vertical rod 1612 on the front, and a third vertical rod 1613 and a fourth vertical rod 1614 on the back. The four vertical rods are all vertically arranged, and the tops of the four vertical rods are sequentially connected by four horizontal rods, and the bottoms of the four vertical rods are sequentially connected by another four horizontal rods to form the frame body 161. The six faces of the frame body 161 all have supporting forces, improving the supporting strength of the frame body 160, and meeting the requirement that the frame body 161 is small in size while having sufficient supporting strength to support the internal cylindrical component and the driving component.

[0091] In one embodiment, the two vertical rods on the front surface of the frame body 161 extend away from the frame body 161 to form two connecting portions for connecting the two sides of the door frame 162 respectively. Specifically, in one embodiment, the frame body 161 has a cuboid structure, and the two vertical rods on the front surface of the frame body 161 are both straight rods, namely the first vertical rod 1611 and the second vertical rod 1612. The first vertical rod 1611 and the second vertical rod 1612 extend away from the frame body 161 respectively to form a first connecting portion 16111 and a second connecting portion 16121 respectively. The first connecting portion 16111 and the second connecting portion 16121 are respectively used to connect the two sides of the door frame 162 to fix the door frame 162 on the frame body 161. The opening of the door frame 162 communicates with the entrance of the inner cylinder 130, and the outer end of the inner cylinder 130 extends out of the frame body 161 from the space between the first vertical rod 1611 and the second vertical rod 1612 to approach the notch 1621. That is, a partial part of the outer end where the entrance of the inner cylinder 130 is located is located in the space formed by the clamping of the first connecting portion 16111, the second connecting portion 16121 and the door frame 162. Furthermore, on the premise that the frame body 160 meets the space for accommodating the inner cylinder 130, it is beneficial to the miniaturized design of the frame body 161.

[0092] Further, as Figure 10 shown, the frame body 161 includes an integrally formed base 1615 to improve the support strength of the bottom of the frame body 161. Specifically, the base 1615 includes a bottom plate 16151 and four vertical plates. The middle of the bottom plate 16151 is hollowed out. The four vertical plates are respectively used to form a structure surrounding the first vertical rod 1611, the second vertical rod 1612, the third vertical rod 1613 and the fourth vertical rod 1614, and fix the base 1615 to the first vertical rod 1611, the second vertical rod 1612, the third vertical rod 1613 and the fourth vertical rod 1614. Through the setting of the base 1615, the support strength of the bottom of the frame body 161 is improved.

[0093] Furthermore, the connecting portion is disposed near the top end of the frame body 161. Specifically, generally, the cylindrical component of the washing machine body 1 is disposed near the top end of the frame body 160, and the space between the bottom of the cylindrical component and the bottom of the frame body 160 is used to accommodate components such as water pipes and suspension rods. Thus, the connecting portion is disposed near the top end of the frame body 161 so that the notch 1621 of the door frame 162 connected to the connecting portion can face the entrance of the inner cylinder 130. To specifically illustrate the structure of the front vertical rod of the frame body 161, taking the frame body 161 as a cuboid structure as an example, specifically, the structure of the first vertical rod 1611 of the frame body 161 is illustrated. The first connecting portion 16111 formed by the first vertical rod 1611 protrudes outward from the bottom support rod 16112 of the first vertical rod 1611. The structure of the second vertical rod 1612 is symmetrical to the structure of the first vertical rod 1611, and the structure of the second vertical rod 1612 will not be elaborated herein. As the front decorative panel of the washing machine body 1 needs to decorate the entire front structure of the frame body 160, in one embodiment, the door body can be used as the front decorative panel. The door body has an irregular structure and is mounted against the front of the frame body 160. The bottom of the front of the frame body 161 is provided with an installation structure (such as an installation hole) for the door body. In another embodiment, the front decorative surface of the washing machine body 1 includes a door body and an auxiliary panel. The door body is used to decorate the door frame 162, and the auxiliary panel is located below the door body. The auxiliary panel is used to jointly form a front decorative surface structure with the door body and jointly abut against the front of the frame body 160. Preferably, in order to improve the neatness and aesthetics of the surface of the washing machine body 1, the front decorative surface structure of the washing machine body 1 is an integral panel structure, that is, the door body.

[0094] Furthermore, as Figures 6 to 10 shown, the connecting portion abuts against the back of the door frame 162. The back of the door frame 162 abuts against the connecting portion, improving the support firmness of the two connecting portions for the door frame 162. Specifically, in one embodiment, the two connecting portions and the door frame 162 are integrally formed to form an integral structure. In another embodiment, the door frame 162 is fixed to the two connecting portions respectively through fasteners, and the back of the door frame 162 is abutted against the connecting portion. On the one hand, the support firmness of the two connecting portions for the door frame 162 is improved; on the other hand, the door frame 162 covers the assembly gap between the door frame 162 and the connecting portion, improving the front neatness of the frame body 160 to improve the front aesthetics.

[0095] Further, since the door frame 162 is a thin plate structure with a small thickness, in order to improve the support strength of the joint part on the door frame 162, the joint part is bent to form an abutting part for abutting against the back surface of the door frame 162. The abutting part abuts against the back surface of the door frame 162, increasing the contact area between the joint part and the back surface of the door frame 162, thereby improving the support strength of the joint part on the door frame 162. In addition, after the door body of the washing machine body is fixed to the outer surface of the door frame 162, the assembly part of the door frame 162 and the joint part needs to bear the gravity of the door frame 162 and the door body at the same time. By increasing the contact area between the joint part and the door frame 162, the probability of deformation due to stress at the assembly part of the door frame 162 and the joint part is reduced. Specifically, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 shown, in one embodiment, the frame body 161 has a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the first joint part 16111 and the second joint part 16121 are respectively bent to form a first abutting part 161111 and a second abutting part 161211 to respectively abut against the edges of the back surface of the door frame 162 near both sides. Further, in one embodiment, the door frame 162 is fixed to the first abutting part 161111 and the second abutting part 161211 respectively through fasteners. Then, corresponding mounting holes are provided at the corresponding parts of the first abutting part 161111, the second abutting part 161211, and the door frame 162 for fixing through fasteners (such as bolts and nuts). The settings of the first abutting part 161111 and the second abutting part 161211 increase the contact area between the joint part and the back surface of the door frame 162, thereby facilitating the fixing of the fasteners and reducing the assembly difficulty.

[0096] Further, in one embodiment, as Figure 8 shown, the frame body 161 has a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the first joint part 16111 and the second joint part 16121 are respectively bent to form a first abutting part 161111 and a second abutting part 161211 to respectively abut against the edges of the back surface of the door frame 162 near both sides. The mounting holes of the door frame 162 are provided at the parts corresponding to the corresponding abutting parts. By the corresponding abutting parts of the abutted door frame 162 and the frame body 161, the thickness of the plate member of the frame body 160 for supporting the door body panel is increased, and the mounting firmness of the door body panel is improved.

[0097] In one embodiment, as Figure 9As shown, the notch 1621 is folded outward to form a clamping portion 16211 for clamping one end of the door seal 170 of the washing machine body 1. Specifically, the outer end of the door seal 170 (i.e., the end away from the inner tub 130) is clamped on the clamping portion 16211, and the inner end of the door seal 170 (i.e., the end close to the inner tub 130) is clamped on the front tub 150 of the washing machine body 1 and seals the assembly gap between the front tub 150 and the outer tub 140 of the washing machine body 1, so that the notch 1621, the front tub 150, and the outer tub 140 jointly form a sealed space. The installation structure of the door seal 170 is jointly formed by the clamping portion 16211 and the front tub 150, and there is no need to set up an additional fixing structure to install the door seal 170, so as to save the occupancy rate of the space inside the frame body 170 by the installation of the door seal.

[0098] Furthermore, as Figure 6 shown, the door frame 162 is recessed to form a first recessed portion 1622; the notch 1621 is arranged on the first recessed portion 1622, so that after the clamping portion 16211 clamps one end of the door seal 170, the front surface of the door seal 170 slightly protrudes from the door frame 162. By arranging the notch 1621 on the first recessed portion 1622, after the clamping portion 16211 of the notch 1621 clamps the outer end of the door seal 170, the door seal 170 will not protrude too much outside the door frame 162, so as not to affect the overall visual effect after the door body is installed, and at the same time, it can also avoid affecting the closing of the door body due to the excessive protrusion of the door seal 170. When the door body of the washing machine body 1 is installed on the door frame 162, when the door body on the door body is closed, the concave door glass on the door body presses against the outer surface of the door seal 170 protruding from the door frame 162, exerting an inward acting force on the door seal 170, and the door seal 170 generates elastic deformation, so as to form a sealed space among the door body, the door seal 170, the front tub 150, and the outer tub 140.

[0099] In an embodiment, the door frame 162 is inclined downward along the direction away from the frame body to make the notch 1621 face the inclined inner tub;

[0100] Or, the door frame 162 is vertically arranged so that the notch 1621 faces the horizontally arranged inner tub. Specifically, according to the user's needs, the inner tub 130 in the washing machine body 1 can be inclined with its inlet facing upward, or the inner tub 130 can be horizontally arranged. As Figure 1As shown, when the inner tub 130 is inclined, in order to facilitate the user to put the laundry to be washed through the notch 1621, the notch 1621 needs to cooperate with the inclination of the inner tub 130. Then, the door frame 162 is inclined downward from top to bottom in a direction away from the frame body, so that the notch 1621 faces the inner tub; at this time, the surface of the connecting portion connected to the door frame 162 away from the outer tub 140 is inclined downward from top to bottom in a direction away from the outer tub 140 to match the installation of the inclined door frame 162. When the inner tub 130 is horizontally arranged, the notch 1621 is vertically arranged, that is, the door frame 162 is vertically arranged to facilitate the user to put the laundry to be washed.

[0101] In one embodiment, the drying assembly provided in the washing machine body 1 for performing drying is fixed on the frame body 160 of the washing machine body 1. Specifically, the frame body 160 of the washing machine body 1 is used to support the housing structure and internal components of the washing machine body 1. Fixing the drying assembly on the frame body 160 replaces the traditional fixing on the cylinder assembly inside the washing machine body 1, reduces the space occupied by the drying assembly inside the washing machine body 1, and is beneficial to the miniaturized design of the washing machine body 1.

[0102] Compared with the prior art, for the mini drying washing machine provided by the present invention, the humid and hot air generated in the inner tub during the drying program first enters the water tank. After cooling, part of the humid and hot air is cooled to form condensed water and flows into the washing water in the water tank, and part of the humid and hot air is discharged outside the washing machine body after the temperature is reduced, reducing the influence of the air discharged during the drying process of the washing machine body on the humidity of the surrounding environment, improving the user experience, and reducing the probability of water droplets hanging on the surface of the washing machine body.

[0103] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and it is not intended to limit the present invention in any form; any ordinary technician in the industry can smoothly implement the present invention according to the instructions in the attached drawings and the above; however, any equivalent changes such as slight modifications, decorations and evolutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention by using the technical content disclosed above are all equivalent embodiments of the present invention; at the same time, any equivalent changes, modifications and evolutions made to the above embodiments based on the essential technology of the present invention still fall within the protection scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
