Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of washing machines, in particular to a device and a method for washing clothes by kneading. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, there are two kinds of conventional clothes washing devices on the market, namely, drum washing machines and pulsator washing machines. During washing, clothes and the like rotate in the drum, fall and hit, and rub. The clothes and the like are subjected to mechanical forces such as centrifugal force and friction force, so that stains are removed. When the clothes and the like rotate in the drum of the washing machine, they will entangle and knot, which will cause wrinkles and abrasion of the clothes. High-end clothes such as cashmere sweaters and silk fabrics will be irreversibly deformed and damaged by the strong centrifugal force during dehydration in the traditional washing machine. Therefore, the traditional washing machine cannot effectively wash high-end clothes such as cashmere sweaters and silk fabrics.

[0003] In addition, a pneumatic pressing type washing machine developed for high-end cashmere sweaters and silk fabrics has appeared on the market. The washing machine uses bionic double air bags to alternately and repeatedly press, and the air bags intelligently adjust the pressing force according to the thickness of the clothes. During the compression and expansion of the clothes, water fully penetrates the fibers of the clothes and carries away the stains in the clothes.

[0004] However, the bionic air bags of the washing machine can only press at a fixed angle during work, and the pressing coverage area of the air bags is small, so there is a certain washing blind area. The pneumatic pump repeatedly charges and discharges air during work, producing low-frequency noise that interferes with life. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a washing machine that can change the above situation. SUMMARY

[0043] The preferred embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the description is merely descriptive, exemplary, and should not be interpreted as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.

[0044] It should be noted that similar reference numerals refer to similar items throughout the drawings, and once an item is defined in one drawing, it can not be further defined and explained in subsequent drawings.

[0045] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the product of the present application is usually placed, and are merely for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present application.

[0046] The steps of the laundry method of the present application are shown as Figure 1 The laundry machine 100 used in the laundry method has a washing cavity 20 for accommodating laundry to be washed, and a flexible lifting platform 70 is arranged at the bottom of the cavity. The flexible lifting platform 70 is wrapped with a lower flexible protective cover 71. The lower flexible protective cover 71 not only protects the lifting structure, but also protects the laundry from being worn by the hard lifting structure.

[0047] The upper portion of the washing chamber 20 is equipped with an upper cover assembly 30 that can be opened and closed. When the upper cover assembly 30 is closed, the laundry machine can be started, preventing detergent from splashing during the wash process. The upper cover assembly 30 includes an upper cover 31, a mechanical kneading mechanism 32, and an upper kneading protective cover 33. The upper kneading protective cover 33 wraps around the mechanical kneading mechanism 10. The upper kneading protective cover 33 prevents hard components from abrading the laundry being washed and also protects the mechanical kneading mechanism 32.

[0048] The specific washing process is as follows: (1) Before placing the laundry into the washing machine 100, the laundry is folded into a shape similar in size to the washing chamber 20 so that the laundry can fit in properly. The folded laundry is then neatly placed into the washing chamber 20 of the washing machine, and laundry liquid is poured into the laundry liquid box, and the upper cover assembly 30 of the washing machine is closed.

[0049] 2) Select a wash program, and the washing machine will automatically add the appropriate amount of water according to the water level set in the program; the flexible lifting platform 70 rises, lifting and pressurizing the clothes. When the set squeezing force is reached and this squeezing force is maintained, the mechanical multi-soft pressure mechanism 10 of the upper cover assembly 30 is activated to perform soft pressure washing on the clothes to be washed; this soft pressure process is based on the squeezing force formed in the washing chamber 20, rather than relying on the kneading component to rub the clothes.

[0050] During washing, the clothes receive only periodic gentle pressure. As the clothes compress and expand, the water flow fully penetrates the clothing fibers, removing any dirt. The rotation prevents the clothes from becoming tangled or wrinkled. After the set wash time is reached, the drain mechanism T in the washing chamber 20 opens to drain water.

[0051] It should be noted that the squeezing force exerted by the rising flexible lifting platform 70 on the clothes depends on the material of the clothes.

[0052] 3) The flexible lifting platform 70 continues to lift and pressurize the laundry, squeezing out moisture. Simultaneously, the mechanical multi-kneading mechanism cooperates, and after a set time, the drain mechanism T closes. This squeeze dehydration prevents irreversible deformation of clothing fibers caused by centrifugal force.

[0053] 4) The flexible lifting platform 70 descends to the washing state, and the water inlet mechanism G of the washing machine opens to let water in. After reaching the set water level, the water inlet mechanism G closes, and the mechanical multi-soft pressure mechanism 10 starts to enter the rinsing stage. The number of rinses is carried out according to the program setting, and the program can be adjusted according to the number, weight, and volume of clothes.

[0054] 5) After the completion of the rinse, the drainage mechanism is opened, the lower cover of the flexible lifting platform 70 continues to lift the pressure, at the same time, the mechanical multi-kneading and pressing mechanism cooperates with the movement to squeeze and drain the water in the clothes. Of course, this place also uses squeezing dehydration, not the traditional centrifugal spin-drying.

[0055] 6) When the time set by the washing machine system arrives, the washing is completed.

[0056] It is further preferred that the laundry to be washed does not exceed the height limit of the clothes, and the washing liquid is poured into the washing liquid box, which does not exceed the maximum amount of washing liquid, the washing liquid box is closed, and the upper cover assembly 30 of the washing machine is closed. The upper cover assembly 30 is locked under the locking mechanism to avoid accidental opening and cause unnecessary safety hazards.

[0057] When the time set by the washing machine system arrives, the washing is completed, and the washing machine will give a prompt sound of the completion of the washing.

[0058] It is further preferred that the laundry to be washed does not exceed the height limit of the clothes, and the washing liquid is poured into the washing liquid box, which does not exceed the maximum amount of washing liquid, the washing liquid box is closed, and the upper cover assembly 30 of the washing machine is closed. The upper cover assembly 30 is locked under the locking mechanism to avoid accidental opening and cause unnecessary safety hazards. Figures 3 to 7

[0059] The top of the washing cavity 20 is provided with a cover plate assembly 30 for opening and closing the washing cavity. A sealing mechanism and a locking mechanism are arranged between the cover plate assembly 30 and the shell 101.

[0060] The sealing mechanism can be an elastic rubber ring arranged on the bottom surface of the upper cover to prevent the washing liquid from splashing during the washing process. Or to prevent external foreign matter from entering the cavity and wearing out the internal components. And the locking mechanism can prevent the cover plate from being accidentally opened, thereby avoiding unnecessary safety hazards.

[0061] The bottom of the washing cavity 20 is provided with a flexible lifting platform 70, and the flexible lifting platform 70 is externally provided with a lower flexible protective cover 71, which serves as the bottom of the washing cavity 20. The lifting movement of the flexible lifting platform 70 can adjust the height of the bottom of the washing cavity 20, thereby changing the depth and liquid level height of the washing cavity 20, and then matching the number and volume of different laundry to be washed.

[0062] ​The cover plate assembly 30 comprises a cover plate 31, a kneading assembly 32 inside the cover plate 31, and an upper flexible protective cover 33 covering the outside of the kneading assembly 32. The upper flexible protective cover 33 is connected to the inside of the cover plate 31, and the kneading assembly 32 is the mechanical kneading mechanism 32 described above. The kneading assembly 32 is wrapped or covered by the upper flexible protective cover 33 to avoid direct contact between the hard kneading assembly 32 and the clothes, or cause unnecessary wear and tear, or even breakage. During the process of the kneading assembly 32 kneading the clothes, the upper flexible protective cover 33 will follow the alternating swing of the kneading assembly 32 and fluctuate to make the upper flexible protective cover 33 swing synchronously with the kneading assembly 32, or the upper flexible protective cover 33 always runs in close contact with the kneading assembly 32.

[0063] The kneading assembly 32 comprises a motor 01, a connecting rod mechanism 02, and two independent kneading rollers 03. The motor 01 drives the two kneading rollers 03 to swing and rotate alternately within a certain range through the connecting rod mechanism 02. The two kneading rollers 03 press the clothes inside the washing cavity through the upper flexible protective cover 33 at multiple angles. When the kneading rollers 03 press the flexible protective cover, they will generate pressure in the cavity, which will be more stable and lasting in cooperation with the lower flexible protective cover 71 at the bottom, thereby forming a stable and effective pressing and decontamination effect on the clothes in the cavity.

[0064] Of course, the kneading rollers 03 can also perform the work mode of rubbing and washing the clothes through the flexible cover surface, thereby further deepening the work mode of the washing device 100.

[0065] The outer side of the cover plate 31 is fixedly connected with an opening cover support 40. The external power drives the opening cover support 40 to open and close the cover plate assembly 30. One end of the opening cover support 40 is connected with the outer side of the cover plate 31, and the other end of the opening cover support 40 is connected with the external power. The external power drives the connecting rod mechanism 02 to achieve the purpose of opening and closing the cover plate 31.

[0066] It should be noted that the connection between the cover plate 31 and the shell surrounding the washing cavity 20 can be a side shaft connection or a hinge structure, that is, the cover plate 31 can rotate upward and downward around the connection point to achieve the opening and closing effect. Alternatively, the cover plate 31 can be fixedly connected with the opening cover support 40, and the external power can drive the opening cover support 40 to be lifted upward, thereby lifting the cover plate 31 upward to make it suspended above the washing cavity 20, thereby achieving the purpose of opening the washing cavity 20.

[0067] Preferably, the opening cover support 40 comprises a plurality of shaft-connected support rods to achieve the purpose of flexible arm, thereby opening or closing the cover plate 31.

[0068] Preferably, the kneading rollers 03 are two, and two pairs of link mechanisms 02 respectively drive the respective kneading rollers 03; or one pair of link mechanisms 02 drives two kneading rollers 03. After the motor is started, the two kneading rollers 03 are synchronously or asynchronously driven to move by the link mechanisms 02.

[0069] The washing cavity 20 is provided with a liquid level sensor F, the shell 101 is provided with a water supply mechanism G and a drainage mechanism T which communicate with the washing cavity 20, and the controller R increases or decreases the liquid in the washing cavity 20 through the drainage mechanism T or the water supply mechanism G according to the washing progress and the liquid level data collected by the liquid level sensor F.

[0070] Further, the flexible lifting platform 70 comprises a telescopic part 73 and a lifting platform 72, the lifting platform 72 is arranged on the upper part of the telescopic part 73, and the lower flexible protective cover 71 is arranged on the upper side of the lifting platform 72. The telescopic part 73 is a mechanical telescopic part or an inflatable telescopic part.

[0071] In actual work, when the flexible lifting platform 70 rises, the containing depth of the washing cavity 20 becomes shallow, and the liquid level height becomes shallow, so as to meet the application condition of less amount of clothes. When the flexible lifting platform 70 descends, the containing depth of the washing cavity 20 becomes deep, and the liquid level height becomes deep, so as to meet the application condition of more amount of clothes.

[0072] The lower flexible protective cover 71 is wrapped outside the flexible lifting platform 70 to form a flexible lower working surface which contacts clothes. The upper flexible protective cover 33 is wrapped outside the kneading assembly 32 to form an upper pressure control surface; the upper and lower pressure control surfaces are relatively coupled and uncoupled to extrude the clothes to be washed. It should be noted that the extrusion here focuses more on the control of the internal pressure of the washing cavity 20, rather than the extrusion when the clothes are physically contacted.

[0073] Of course, the contact extrusion is not intentionally excluded by the present application, and the laundry equipment can also be set in the contact extrusion mode. The extrusion here is intended to highlight the technical key points of the present application, which are developed around the technical core of “the clothes are periodically subjected to flexible pressure, and the water flow fully penetrates the fibers of the clothes in the compression and expansion process of the clothes, and carries away the stains in the clothes”. This technical means can produce the technical effect that the clothes will not be entangled and wrinkled due to rotation.

[0074] The laundry method and laundry equipment provided by the present application are described in detail above, and specific examples are applied in this paper to explain the principles and implementation modes of the present application. The above description of the embodiments is only used to help understand the present application and the core idea. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary skilled persons in the technical field, some improvements and modifications can be made to the present application without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and modifications also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present application.
