Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of clothing processing equipment technology, specifically to a clothing processing device and its drying system. Background Technology

[0002] A washer-dryer combo is a garment processing device that integrates washing and drying functions. During the drying process, air needs to circulate within the machine. Inevitably, lint from the clothes will be carried into the drying air duct during this airflow, therefore, the air in the duct needs to be filtered.

[0003] Taking a heat pump washer-dryer combo as an example, its heat pump module is generally located above the drum. When viewed from the combo machine, its airflow path is a lateral circulation, so the air needs to be filtered before passing through the heat exchanger. Typically, the filter before the heat exchanger is designed as a pull-out type for easy cleaning of lint. However, users have found that lint still floats in the condensate produced during the drying process, indicating that the existing filter is not ideal in intercepting lint.

[0004] Accordingly, there is a need in the field for a new garment processing device and its drying system to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, namely, to resolve the issue of unsatisfactory filtration performance in existing drying systems, a first aspect of the present invention provides a drying system for a garment processing device. The drying system includes an air duct, and the air duct is equipped with a filter assembly, the filter assembly comprising:

[0006] A first filter element is removably disposed within the air duct;

[0007] A second filter element is disposed in the duct in a removable manner relative to the first filter element, and when viewed along the airflow direction in the duct, the second filter element is located upstream of the first filter element.

[0008] The drying assembly for a garment processing device provided by this invention, by setting a first filter component and a second filter component in the air duct, and by placing the second filter component upstream of the first filter component while making the second filter component removable relative to the first filter component, allows the second filter component to be removed from the air duct for cleaning after drying. During the removal of the second filter component, some lint on the second filter component is dislodged by the sealing ring located at the air duct insertion port. This fallen lint is collected by the first filter component located downstream of the second filter component. In this way, a double-layer filtration barrier is formed in the air duct, which can effectively prevent lint from rolling onto the heat exchanger and achieve complete collection of lint. This reduces the possibility of lint accumulation on the heat exchanger, thereby keeping the heat exchanger clean and preventing the generation of odors.

[0009] It should be noted that the filter component can be installed in various locations, such as at the air duct inlet or in the middle of the air duct. When installed in the middle of the air duct, a pull-in / pull-out port can be opened in the middle of the air duct to connect the filter component to the air duct in a pull-in / pull-out manner.

[0010] In addition, the structure in which the first filter component is removably disposed in the air duct can be at least the following types: for example, the first filter component is plugged into the mounting position provided by the air duct and is interference-fitted; the first filter component is plugged into the mounting position and then fixed by snap-fit, and the limiting effect of the snap-fit ​​can be released; the first filter component is plugged into the mounting position and then limited by a limiting member, and the limiting effect of the limiting member can be released; and so on.

[0011] The structure in which the second filter element is disposed within the air duct can be in at least the following forms: for example, the second filter element is only plugged into the air duct; the second filter element is only plugged into the first filter element, and the first filter element is plugged into the air duct; the second filter element is connected to both the air duct and the first filter element; and so on.

[0012] The second filter element can be removable relative to the first filter element in at least the following ways: for example, the first filter element and the second filter element are respectively connected to the air duct and are removable relative to the air duct; the second filter element is connected to the first filter element and is removable relative to the first filter element; and so on.

[0013] Furthermore, the first and second filter components can be either fitted together or placed adjacent to each other. Fitting together allows for a more compact structure and occupies less installation space. Placing them adjacent reduces friction while maintaining filtration efficiency. Alternatively, an intermediary component can be used to achieve this adjacent placement. This intermediary component can be a fixed structure, such as a raised fixing block on one of the filter components; or it can be a movable structure, such as a roller or ball bearing.

[0014] Furthermore, the shape, structure, material, filtration capacity, and other characteristics of the first and second filter components can be completely the same or different, or partially the same. Taking filtration capacity as an example, since the cleaning and replacement frequency of the first filter component is much lower than that of the second filter component, the filtration capacity of the second filter component can be set to be higher than that of the first filter component. Specifically, this could be achieved by the volume of the lint-collecting space formed on the second filter component being larger than the volume of the lint-collecting space formed on the first filter component, or by the density of the filter screen of the second filter component being greater than that of the filter screen of the first filter component; and so on.

[0015] In some feasible embodiments of the drying system of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, an intermediate component is provided between the first filter component and the second filter component.

[0016] By setting an intermediate component between the first filter component and the second filter component, the physical isolation between the first filter component and the second filter component is achieved by means of the intermediate component. In this way, when the second filter component is pulled out relative to the first filter component, the setting of the intermediate component can reduce the friction between the two and reduce the resistance during the extraction process of the second filter component, making it convenient for users to use.

[0017] The middleware is set up to isolate the first filter element from the second filter element, so as to facilitate the removal of the second filter element.

[0018] There are various structural forms of intermediate components. For example, it can be a structure extending from the air duct body, such as a protruding structure formed on the inner wall of the air duct. It can be a structure set on the body of the first filter component and / or the second filter component, such as a protruding structure formed on or fixedly connected to the body of the first filter component and / or the second filter component, or a roller, ball, or other structure movably connected to the body of the first filter component and / or the second filter component.

[0019] In some feasible embodiments of the drying system of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, the second filter element is slidably or slidably connected to the first filter element by means of the intermediate member.

[0020] This provides a specific way to configure the middleware. By using the middleware to achieve a sliding or rolling connection between the first and second filter components, the frictional resistance during their relative movement can be reduced, making the extraction of the second filter component smoother.

[0021] In some feasible embodiments of the drying system of the aforementioned garment processing equipment, the first filter element has a receiving space so that:

[0022] When the second filter element is removed relative to the first filter element, it catches at least a portion of the lint that falls from the second filter element.

[0023] Although the first filter element can collect most of the lint that falls off the second filter element, there is still a possibility that the lint may roll into the gap formed by the connection between the first filter element and the air duct. Thus, after the first filter element is removed, the lint in the gap may still adhere to the heat exchanger. By setting a receiving space on the first filter element, the first filter element can collect the lint that falls off the second filter element from all directions, preventing the lint from accumulating in the gap between the first filter element and the air duct. This maximizes the secondary collection of lint and improves the lint collection effect.

[0024] It should be noted that the receiving space refers to the portion located outside the area where the first filter element performs its filtering function and that can serve as a receiving space. There are various structural forms for the first filter element to form the receiving space. These include plate-like structures or groove-like edging structures, etc., which are located at or formed at the edge of the first filter element and can cover the edge of the second filter element.

[0025] In some feasible embodiments of the drying system of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, the first filter component is equipped with a first baffle, and the first filter component and the first baffle form the receiving space.

[0026] By setting a first baffle, the baffle and the frame of the first filter component together form the receiving space, thereby achieving the purpose of further receiving wire debris.

[0027] When installed, the first baffle extends from the outer edge of the first filter element in the opposite direction of airflow. The first baffle covers at least a portion of the outer edge of the second filter element. For example, the first baffle may be disposed or formed at the end of the first filter element facing the extraction direction, or the first baffle may be disposed or formed at each edge that is in direct contact with the air duct, forming an enclosing shape around the outer edge of the second filter element, etc.

[0028] In addition, the first baffle can be integrally formed with the frame of the first filter component, or it can be connected to the frame of the first filter component by means of bonding, snap-fitting, etc.

[0029] In some feasible implementations of the drying system of the aforementioned clothing processing equipment, the removal of the first filter element is more difficult than the removal of the second filter element.

[0030] Because the second filter element is cleaned more frequently than the first filter element during use, it needs to be inserted and removed far more often than the first filter element. By connecting the first filter element in the duct with a greater difficulty level than the second filter element, daily cleaning of the second filter element is convenient, while preventing the first filter element from being accidentally removed while removing the second filter element. This design is because, to improve lint interception, the second filter element is usually placed adjacent to or flush with the first filter frame to maximize the receiving space. However, this could cause interference between the two filter elements. By differentiating their removal difficulty, the design satisfies the user's daily operation needs while preventing accidental removal, thus improving user convenience.

[0031] It should be noted that removal difficulty refers to the time, effort, procedures, etc., required to remove the first and second filter components from their installation positions. The removal difficulty of the first filter component being greater than that of the second filter component can occur in at least the following situations: Under the same applied force, the time and / or procedures required to remove the first filter component from the duct are greater than those required for the second filter component. Alternatively, within the same timeframe, the force required to remove the first filter component is greater than that required to remove the second filter component. For example, if the first filter component is inserted into the duct with an interference fit, while the second filter component is only inserted into the duct, removing the second filter component is easier than removing the first. Or, the steps required to remove the first filter component are more complex than those required to remove the second filter component. For example, the second filter component must be removed before removing the first filter component, or the second filter component can be directly pulled out of the duct, while the first filter component requires the constraint of the duct to be released before it can be pulled out, and so on.

[0032] In some feasible embodiments of the drying system of the aforementioned clothing processing equipment, the drying system is equipped with a resistance element that increases the difficulty of removing the first filter element from the air duct.

[0033] This provides a specific implementation method for differentiating removal difficulty.

[0034] The structure, arrangement, and location of the resistance element can be at least the following: the resistance element can be a protrusion, a snap-fit, a block, etc. These protrusions, snap-fits, blocks, etc. can be set or formed in the air duct, or set or formed on the first filter element, or set or formed on the second filter element. The second filter element applies force to the first filter element by means of these structures to prevent the first filter element from being pulled out, and there can also be a combination of the above situations, etc.

[0035] For example, the resistance element may be an arc-shaped protrusion formed on the frame of the first filter element and in the air duct, respectively; or, the resistance element may be a buckle and a latch formed on the frame of the first filter element and in the air duct, respectively; or, the resistance element may be a block / baffle formed on the frame of the second filter element, which presses against the frame of the first filter element in the insertion direction of the filter element. In this way, when the first filter element is pulled out, the second filter element needs to be pulled out in advance or together with it due to the obstruction of the second filter element, which increases the force or process required to pull out the first filter element and increases the difficulty of its removal.

[0036] In some feasible embodiments of the drying system of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, the resistance element is disposed on the second filter component or integrally formed with the second filter component.

[0037] This provides a specific implementation method for the resistance component.

[0038] The resistance element can be installed on the second filter component in at least the following ways: the resistance element is connected to the second filter component by means of bonding, snap-fitting, plugging, etc.

[0039] In some feasible embodiments of the drying system of the above-mentioned clothing processing equipment, the first filter element and the second filter element are insertable and removable relative to the air duct, and the second filter element is provided with a second baffle. When viewed in the insertion direction, the second baffle at least covers a portion of the outer edge of the first filter element.

[0040] This provides a specific structure for the resistance element.

[0041] It is understandable that the second baffle can be attached to the second filter component by means of bonding, snap-fitting, or plugging, or it can be integrally formed with the main body of the second filter component.

[0042] For example, the second filter component includes a filter screen and a frame for supporting the filter screen, and the second baffle can be integrally formed with the frame; and so on.

[0043] A second aspect of the present invention also provides a garment processing apparatus, the garment processing apparatus comprising the drying system of the garment processing apparatus described in any of the above technical solutions.

[0044] Those skilled in the art will understand that, since the garment processing equipment is equipped with the drying system described in any of the aforementioned technical solutions, it possesses all the technical effects of the aforementioned drying system, which will not be elaborated upon here.

Detailed Implementation

[0055] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. For example, although the following embodiments are explained in conjunction with a washer-dryer combo, this is not restrictive; the technical solutions of the present invention are also applicable to dryers, garment care machines, etc., and this change in application does not depart from the principles and scope of the present invention.

[0056] Furthermore, to better illustrate the present invention, numerous specific details are set forth in the following detailed embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention can be practiced without certain specific details. In some instances, the heat pump principle, well-known to those skilled in the art, has not been described in detail in order to highlight the main points of the present invention.

[0057] It should be noted that in the description of this invention, the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," "outer," "front," and "rear," etc., indicating directional or positional relationships, are based on the accompanying drawings and the directional or positional relationships shown in actual use. These are merely for ease of description and do not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation; therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this invention. Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0058] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "linking" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention according to the specific circumstances.

[0059] Existing washer-dryer combos have been found to contain lint in the condensate produced during drying, despite inspection revealing no damage to the filter. Further investigation revealed that the problem is not due to insufficient filter mesh density, but rather because: for duct sealing requirements, washer-dryer combos use a rubber or other elastic sealing ring at the filter pull-out opening. When installed, this ring tightly adheres to the filter's outer frame. When the filter is pulled out, the collected lint is easily dislodged by the sealing ring. Since the filter loses its interception function after being removed, the dislodged lint accumulates and adheres to the heat exchanger during the rolling process. Some of this lint is flushed out by the condensate produced by the heat exchanger, resulting in floating lint in the condensate. However, some lint that is not flushed out adheres to the heat exchanger, causing some damage.

[0060] Based on the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a technical solution capable of omnidirectionally intercepting lint. By installing a first filter component and a second filter component in the air duct, and positioning the second filter component upstream of the first filter component while making it removable relative to the first filter component, the second filter component can be removed from the air duct for cleaning after drying. During removal, some lint on the second filter component is dislodged by a sealing ring located at the air duct's insertion / removal port. This fallen lint is collected by the first filter component located downstream of the second filter component. This creates a double-layer filtration barrier within the air duct, effectively preventing lint from rolling onto the heat exchanger and achieving complete lint collection. This reduces the likelihood of lint accumulation on the heat exchanger, keeping it clean and preventing odors.

[0061] The technical solution of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0062] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of the garment processing device in an embodiment of the present invention is shown; Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the structure of the filtering component in an embodiment of the present invention is shown; Figure 3 It shows Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the exploded structure; Figure 4 It shows Figure 2 Top view; Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure of the first filter component is shown; Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the second filter component is shown; Figure 7 It shows Figure 6 A magnified view of a portion of point A in the middle.

[0063] like Figure 1As shown, this embodiment uses a heat pump washer-dryer combo as an example. The drying system of this combo includes an air duct 2, which connects to the internal environment of the drum 6, thus creating an air circulation channel. The air circulation direction is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the diagram, the hot air, heated by the heat exchanger 4, enters the drum 6 through the inlet or right side of the drum 6, flows out through the bottom or left side of the drum 6, and enters the air duct 2. The air containing water vapor in the air duct 2 is filtered by the filter assembly 3, then cooled and condensed by the evaporator. The water vapor in the air condenses and precipitates out. The dehumidified air is then heated again by the condenser and enters the next cycle. The heat exchanger 4 here includes an evaporator and a condenser.

[0064] During air circulation, humid air carries away lint from clothing, thus requiring filtration by the filter assembly 3 provided by this invention. This filter assembly 3 is located upstream of the airflow direction within the air duct 2.

[0065] like Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the filter assembly 3 provided in this embodiment of the invention includes a first filter element 31 and a second filter element 32. In this embodiment, both the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 are disposed on the filter screen insertion / removal port formed on the air duct 2. The first filter element 31 is insertable / removable relative to the air duct 2, and the second filter element 32 is insertable / removable relative to the air duct 2 and the first filter element 31. In the installed state, the first filter element 31 is located between the second filter element 32 and the heat exchanger 4. The airflow direction is as follows. Figure 2 As shown by the black arrows, the air containing lint in the air duct 2 flows sequentially through the second filter element 32 and the first filter element 31. The lint is intercepted by the second filter element 32 and the first filter element 31, and the air is purified.

[0066] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5The first filter element 31 is made into a plate-like structure, including a first frame 311, a support rib, and a first filter screen 312. The support rib is connected to the middle of the first frame 311 and supports the first filter screen 312. Viewed in the insertion / removal direction, a first handle 313 is provided at the end of the first frame 311 facing the insertion direction, allowing the first filter element 31 to be pulled out or inserted into the air duct 2. A first track 3111 is provided on the outer periphery of the first frame 311, extending along its length. A third track (not shown) is provided at the insertion / removal port of the air duct 2, compatible with the first track 3111. Guided by the cooperation of the first track 3111 and the third track, the first filter element 31 can be pulled out or inserted into the air duct 2. The arrangement of the first track 3111 and the third track not only guides the movement of the filter element but also assists in sealing, achieving a sealed connection between the first filter element 31 and the air duct 2. It should be noted that facing the insertion direction is the opposite of the insertion direction.

[0067] Furthermore, a first baffle 314 extends from the windward side (i.e., the side opposite to the airflow direction) of the first frame 311, as shown below. Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the first baffle 314 is only formed on the side of the first frame 311 facing the extraction direction. The first baffle 314 and the rear part of the first frame 311 together form a structure for receiving the lint that falls off the second filter component 32. This is because, during the extraction of the second filter, the lint that falls off may enter the gap formed by the connection between the first frame 311 and the air duct 2. The setting of this receiving space can avoid this phenomenon. The receiving space can collect the lint that falls off and remove the lint from the air duct 2 together with the first filter component 31 when it is removed.

[0068] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7The second filter element 32 is made into a plate-like structure. The second filter element 32 has a different filtration capacity than the first filter element 31, specifically in its ability to hold lint and its filtration capacity. The second filter element 32 includes a second frame 321, supporting ribs, and a second filter screen 322. The mesh density of the first filter screen 312 is greater than that of the second filter screen 322. This is because most of the lint falling off the second filter element 32 is in a clustered state, so even with a larger mesh density, it can still achieve a good interception effect. The supporting ribs are connected to the middle of the second frame 321, providing support for the second filter screen 322. A second handle 323 is provided on the user-facing end of the second frame 321, allowing the second filter element 32 to be pulled out or inserted into the air duct 2. The width of the second frame 321 (viewed along the airflow direction) is greater than the width of the first frame 311 to accommodate more lint.

[0069] To make the relative movement between the second filter element 32 and the first filter element 31 smoother, an intermediate roller 325 is also provided between the second filter element 32 and the first filter element 31 in this embodiment. Specifically, refer to... Figures 5 to 7 As shown, a plurality of rollers 325 are provided on the side of the second frame 321 opposite to the first frame 311. A second track 3112, cooperating with the rollers 325, is provided at corresponding positions on the first frame 311. During the removal of the second filter component 32 relative to the first filter component 31, the rollers 325 on the second frame 321 roll along the second track 3112, which both guides the movement and reduces the friction between the second frame 321 and the first frame 311. It should be noted that... Figure 4 There is a small gap between the first border 311 and the second border 321. Figure 4 The gap is not clearly shown in the text.

[0070] When installed, the outer periphery of the second frame 321 will abut against the surface of the first baffle 314, such as... Figure 2 As shown in the diagram. During the extraction of the second filter, the receiving space formed by the first baffle 314 and the first frame 311 is used to further intercept falling lint.

[0071] To prevent the first filter element 31 from being pulled out when the second filter element 32 is removed, automatic differentiation between the first filter element 31 and the second filter element 32 is achieved as follows: First, the first filter element 31 and the air duct 2 are configured with an interference fit, meaning there is no adjustment margin between the first frame 311 of the installed first filter element 31 and the air duct 2. However, the resistance provided by this interference fit is limited because although the first filter element 31 does not require frequent disassembly and assembly, it does require cleaning and therefore does not need to be tightly fixed. To further increase the differentiation between the two, resistance components are configured in the drying system to increase the difficulty of removing the first filter element 31 from the air duct 2. (Refer to...) Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the resistance element is formed on the second filter member 32, specifically a second baffle 324 integrally formed on and on the second frame 321. Viewed along the airflow direction, the second baffle 324 extends from the second frame 321 in the airflow direction. Viewed along the insertion direction, the second baffle 324 presses against the outer edge of the first frame 311, at least covering a portion of the outer edge of the first filter member 31. During cleaning, the second filter member 32 can be smoothly removed from the air duct 2. Before removing the second filter element 32, the first filter element 31 will experience resistance from both the interference fit and the second filter element 32. Due to the obstruction of the second baffle 324, pulling out the first filter element 31 will also pull out the second filter element 32, requiring nearly twice the force to successfully remove the first filter element 31. This allows the user to easily distinguish between the first and second filter elements 31 and accurately select the filter element to be cleaned, even when the user cannot see the inside of the air duct 2, preventing misoperation. Furthermore, because there is a specific order for removing and inserting the first filter element and the second filter element 32, if the user reverses the order after cleaning, the filter elements will not be properly inserted, reminding the user to operate correctly and ensuring maximum filtration efficiency.

[0072] In addition, the first handle 313 on the first frame 311 has a first snapping direction, and the second handle 323 on the second frame 321 has a second snapping direction. In order to further prevent misoperation, the first snapping direction and the second snapping direction are set in a way that is opposite to each other.

[0073] In addition, to achieve a seal for the air duct 2, a sealing element is provided at the insertion / removal port of the air duct 2. This sealing element can be made of materials such as rubber or silicone. The sealing element can be provided only on the side that contacts the second filter component 32, or it can be provided on the side that contacts the frame of the first filter component 31. The insertion / removal port is parallel to the cross-section of the air duct 2.

[0074] In addition, this embodiment of the invention also provides a heat pump type washer-dryer combo machine, which includes a housing 1, a drum 6, a heat pump module, etc. The heat pump module is disposed inside the housing 1 above the drum 6 and includes a drying air duct 2, a fan 5, a heat exchanger 4, etc., and is equipped with the filter assembly 3 in the aforementioned embodiment.

However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of protection of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after such changes or substitutions will all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
