Those skilled in the art can make adjustments as needed in order to adapt to specific application occasions. For example, although the description is exemplified by the active extruding part and the extruded part being both fan-shaped plates, the present application can obviously use other similar means, such as one of the active extruding part and the extruded part being a cuboid or both the active extruding part and the extruded part being cuboids, as long as the active extruding part and the extruded part can effectively extrude the washing load.
[0035] It should be noted that in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used for description purposes, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0036] In addition, it should also be noted that in the description of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connecting", "connecting", "providing" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or it can be integrally connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, etc. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0037] For example, Figures 1-7, 10-11, to solve the problem of poor stability of the connection between the components in the existing small washing equipment, large vibration and noise during operation, which easily affects the user experience and the service life of the equipment, the present application provides a kind of washing equipment, next to the first embodiment of the present application is described.
[0038] As Figure 1 shown, the washing equipment includes washing assembly 1, water tank 3 and base 2, washing assembly 1 and water tank 3 are arranged on the base 2, washing assembly 1 includes washing part 11 and shell 12 arranged outside the washing part 11, the water inlet of the washing barrel 111 is communicated with the drain port of the water tank 3 (not shown in the figure).

As Figures 4-5 shown, the bottom of the water tank 3 is provided with water tank drain port 31, and the water tank drain port 31 is provided with sealing joint 32, the sealing joint 32 has elasticity (such as setting spring, etc.), when the water tank 3 is not installed, the sealing joint 32 will seal the water tank drain port 31 under the action of elastic force, at this time, the water tank 3 can be carried alone to add water, without moving the whole machine. Shell 12 is provided with shell water inlet 121, shell water inlet 121 is provided with lifting column 122, shell water inlet 121 is communicated with the water inlet of the washing barrel 111 (not shown in the figure). When the water tank 3 is communicated with the washing barrel 111, the lifting column 122 lifts the sealing joint 32, and the water tank drain port 31 is unsealed. Make the water tank drain port 31 and shell water inlet 121 communicate.
[0039] As Figure 3 , 6-7、10-11, the washing part 11 includes a washing tub 111, a driving part 112 arranged outside the washing tub 111, and a main extrusion part 113 and a passive extrusion part 114 arranged inside the washing tub 111. The main extrusion part 113 is drivingly connected with the output end of the driving part 112, so that the main extrusion part 113 can approach or move away from the passive extrusion part 114 with the rotation of the output end of the driving part 112. The passive extrusion part 114 is fixedly arranged inside the washing tub 111. The passive extrusion part 114 is provided with a second water passage 1141, and the washing water flowing into the second water passage 1141 can flush the washing load after flowing out of the second water passage 1141. The passive extrusion part 114 includes a first side surface 1144 and a second side surface 1145, and the second water passage 1141 includes a forward passage 1142, and the water inlet of the forward passage 1142 at the first side surface 1144 is higher than that at the second side surface 1145; the second water passage 1141 includes a reverse passage 1143, and the water inlet of the reverse passage 1143 at the first side surface 1144 is lower than that at the second side surface 1145. The forward passage 1142 and the reverse passage 1143 are both provided with a plurality of passages, and the forward passages 1142 at the same height are parallel to each other, and the reverse passages 1143 at the same height are parallel to each other. In order to improve the extrusion effect, the main extrusion part 113 and the passive extrusion part 114 can both adopt a fan-shaped plate. The main extrusion part 113 is provided with a first water passage 1131. A shaft body 115 is further arranged between the driving part 112 and the main extrusion part 113, the output end of the driving part 112 is drivingly connected with one end of the shaft body 115, and the other end of the shaft body 115 enters the washing tub 111 and is drivingly connected with the main extrusion part 113.
[0040] As shown in Figure 3 The washing part 11 further includes a concave plate 1122, which is arranged outside the driving part 112 and is fixedly connected with the washing tub 111. The concave plate 1122 can adopt a U-shaped plate.
[0041] The above arrangement has the advantages that in the embodiment, the washing device is arranged by arranging a concave plate outside the driving part and fixedly connecting the concave plate with the washing tub, so that the driving part and the washing tub are stably connected as a whole, and the vibration and noise generated during the operation are small, which improves the user experience and the service life of the device.
[0042] In the embodiment, the washing device also adopts the extrusion washing mode, which can achieve good washing effect and avoid the winding of the washing load (such as clothes, etc.) during the extrusion washing process.
[0043] In this embodiment, the area surrounded by the third side surface 1132 of the active squeezing part 113, the second side surface 1145 of the passive squeezing part 114 and the washing tub 111 when the active squeezing part 113 is turned clockwise is referred to as the right washing cavity; correspondingly, the area surrounded by the fourth side surface 1133 of the active squeezing part 113, the first side surface 1144 of the passive squeezing part 114 and the washing tub 111 when the active squeezing part 113 is turned counterclockwise is referred to as the left washing cavity. The washing load is divided into two parts and placed in the right washing cavity and the left washing cavity of the washing tub 111 respectively, under the action of the driving part 112, the third side surface 1132 and the fourth side surface 1133 of the active squeezing part 113 respectively squeeze the second side surface 1145 and the first side surface 1144 of the passive squeezing part 114 to squeeze the washing load.
[0044] When the active squeezing part 113 is turned clockwise, the distance between the third side surface 1132 of the active squeezing part 113 and the second side surface 1145 of the passive squeezing part 114 is constantly shortened, the water level of the washing water in the right washing cavity of the washing tub 111 is temporarily increased by a small amount, and the washing load in the right washing cavity of the washing tub 111 is squeezed by the third side surface 1132 of the active squeezing part 113 and the second side surface 1145 of the passive squeezing part 114. At the same time, part of the washing water in the right washing cavity passes through the passive squeezing part 114, most of the passing washing water passes through the reverse channel 1143 on the second side surface 1145 of the passive squeezing part 114, and is sprayed from the first side surface 1144 of the passive squeezing part 114 under the action of gravity, and impacts the washing load in the left washing cavity of the washing tub 111, so that the washing load in the left washing cavity is washed and translated or tumbled, etc., so that the washing load in the left washing cavity which was previously squeezed into a group by the active squeezing part 113 is dispersed and moves away from the passive squeezing part 114 without gathering around the passive squeezing part 114.
[0045] When the active squeezing section 113 rotates counterclockwise, the distance between the fourth side 1133 of the active squeezing section 113 and the first side 1144 of the squeezed section 114 shortens. This allows the washing water to pass through the forward channel 1142 on the first side 1144 of the squeezed section 114 and be ejected from the second side 1145 of the squeezed section 114. The washing load in the left washing chamber can move with the active squeezing section 113, thus maintaining the washing effect. During each squeezing wash, the washing load is in a different position, allowing different parts of the washing load to be washed. However, if the washing load in the left washing chamber could only remain concentrated near the squeezed section 114, the squeezing effect between the fourth side 1133 of the active squeezing section 113 and the first side 1144 of the squeezed section 114 would be significantly weakened. Therefore, this embodiment avoids the situation where only the parts of the washing load initially squeezed by the active squeezing section 113 and the squeezed section 114 are excessively and repeatedly squeezed and washed, while other parts receive insufficient squeezing and washing due to minimal positional changes in the washing load.
[0046] Furthermore, this embodiment also provides a first water passage 1131 on the active squeezing part 113, so that during the rotation of the active squeezing part 113 and the squeezing process with the squeezed part 114, a portion of the water can pass through the first water passage 1131, which can improve the washing effect on clothes and prevent the washing water level from rising too high and overflowing.
[0047] The second embodiment of the washing device of the present invention will now be described.
[0048] like Figures 8-9 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that, in this embodiment, the squeezed part 114 is not fixed inside the washing tub 111, but the squeezed part 114 is slidably sleeved with the output end of the drive part 112 so that the squeezed part 114 does not rotate with the rotation of the output end of the drive part 112.
[0049] The advantage of the above-mentioned arrangement is that, in this embodiment, in addition to the advantages obtained by setting the second water passage 1141 mentioned in the first embodiment, since the squeezed part 114 is not fixed, a new technical effect is further generated.
[0050] As the driving part 112 drives, the active squeezing part 113 rotates inside the washing barrel 111, while the passive squeezing part 114 does not rotate with the active squeezing part 113. Thus, for example, when the active squeezing part 113 rotates clockwise to squeeze the laundry together with the passive squeezing part 114, the passive squeezing part 114 also rotates clockwise under the action of force and moves away from the active squeezing part 113, and the passive squeezing part 114 can also squeeze the laundry placed in the other washing cavity while rotating, and the squeezed laundry can be freely unfolded, and the active squeezing part 113 rotates counterclockwise until it squeezes the washing load together with the passive squeezing part 114 again. In the same size washing area, as the active squeezing part 113 rotates clockwise to exert force on the passive squeezing part 114 to make the passive squeezing part 114 rotate clockwise by a certain angle, compared with the structure that the passive squeezing part 114 is fixed, when the active squeezing part 113 rotates counterclockwise until it rotates by an angle to squeeze the passive squeezing part 114 again, the rotating angle is reduced, thereby reducing the rotating angle of the active squeezing part 113 when rotating counterclockwise, thus improving the washing efficiency and reducing the energy consumption. As the active squeezing part 113 continuously rotates back and forth, a good washing effect can be achieved.
[0051] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the principles of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application. Those skilled in the art can adjust the above structure without departing from the principles of the present application, so that the present application can be applied to more specific application scenarios.
[0052] For example, in an alternative embodiment, the output end of the driving part 112 can also be directly drivingly connected with the active squeezing part 113, which can be that the output end of the driving part 112 enters the washing barrel 111 and is directly drivingly connected with the active squeezing part 113 (not shown in the figure), or the active squeezing part 113 extends out of the washing barrel 111 and is directly drivingly connected with the driving part 112 (not shown in the figure), and various connection modes. The driving part 112 can also be a motor and a speed reducer cooperating driving part. Similarly, the active squeezing part 113 can approach or move away from the passive squeezing part 114 with the rotation of the output end of the driving part 112, which does not deviate from the principles of the present application, and thus falls within the protection scope of the present application.
[0053] For example, in another alternative embodiment, the first water passage 1131 can not be provided on the active squeezing part 113 (not shown in the figure).
[0054] For example, in another alternative embodiment, either the active squeezing part or the passive squeezing part can be a cuboid, or both the active squeezing part and the passive squeezing part can be cuboids (not shown in the figure), which can also achieve a certain squeezing effect.
[0055] For example, in another alternative embodiment, the forward channels 1142 can not all be parallel, and the reverse channels 1143 can not all be parallel, depending on the actual situation. The height of each forward channel 1142 and each reverse channel 1143 can also be adjusted.
[0056] For example, in another alternative embodiment, the connection between the shaft 115 and the active extrusion portion 113 can be that the shaft 115 is a spline, and a groove matching the spline is provided in the active extrusion portion 113, with the spline being arranged in the groove. The connection between the shaft 115 and the active extrusion portion 113 can also be that the shaft 115 and the active extrusion portion 113 are in interference fit or are connected by bolts (not shown in the figure), etc.
[0057] For example, in another alternative embodiment, a filter screen (not shown in the figure) can be provided in the first water passage 1131 and the second water passage 1141 to avoid the blockage of the water passages by various impurities during the washing process, thereby affecting the washing efficiency.
[0058] For example, in another alternative embodiment, the active extrusion portion 113 and the extruded portion 114 can also be composed of two parts made of materials with different hardness, i.e., the active extrusion portion 113 and the extruded portion 114 are each composed of a hard extrusion portion on one side and a soft extrusion portion on the other side (not shown in the figure). During the extrusion process, the active extrusion portion 113 changes from a certain speed to zero, while the extruded portion 114 changes from zero speed to a certain speed and then to zero, so that the extrusion effect of the active extrusion portion 113 and the extruded portion 114 made of materials with different hardness on the clothes is also different. Through different combinations, four kinds of washing cavities can be realized, i.e., a hard active extrusion portion and a hard extruded portion, a hard active extrusion portion and a soft extruded portion, a soft active extrusion portion and a hard extruded portion, and a soft active extrusion portion and a soft extruded portion. Different materials of clothes can be placed in the corresponding washing cavities for washing. The clothes of different materials can be placed in the washing cavities for washing, which does not deviate from the principle of the present application and thus falls within the protection scope of the present application.
[0059] For example, in another alternative embodiment, only the active extrusion portion 113 can be detachably connected, and before washing and after washing a batch of washing loads, the dirty condition of the washing loads to be washed next can be determined to judge which active extrusion portion 113 to use, such as an extrusion portion with different material hardness, etc. Correspondingly, the active extrusion portion 113 and the extruded portion 114 can also be detachably connected. In addition, only the extruded portion 114 can be detachably connected, which does not deviate from the principle of the present application and thus falls within the protection scope of the present application.
[0060] In summary, the washing equipment of the present application can obtain good washing effect through reciprocating extrusion washing. The driving part and the washing barrel are stably connected as a whole by setting a concave plate outside the driving part and fixedly connecting the concave plate with the washing barrel, and the vibration and noise generated during the working process are small, which improves the use experience of the user and the service life of the equipment.
[0061] So far, the technical solutions of the present application have been described in combination with the preferred embodiments shown in the drawings, but those skilled in the art can easily understand that the protection scope of the present application is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or replacements to the related technical features without departing from the principles of the present application, and the technical solutions after the changes or replacements will fall within the protection scope of the present application.
