Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to a clothing processing device. Background Art

[0002] When a washing machine or other clothes processing equipment is working, the working drum rotates at a certain speed inside the drum, causing part of the liquid inside the drum to be thrown to the top inside the drum and outside the working drum. Under the action of gravity, a large amount of water will fall from the gap between the working drum and the door seal, and the gap between the drum and the door seal.

[0003] In the related art, the gap between the door seal and the working cylinder cannot meet the water flow requirements, and the door cover of the door seal extends into the interior of the cylinder, seriously affecting the water flow. In addition, due to the minimum gap standard between the working cylinder and the door seal, the water flow is relatively small and cannot cause a strong visual impact of water flow. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0005] To this end, the present invention provides a clothes treating device.

[0006] The present invention provides a clothing processing device, comprising: a main body; a cylinder, arranged in the main body, and having an open end; a working cylinder, at least partially arranged in the cylinder and located on one side of the open end; a door seal, arranged on the main body, and having a door cover, at least partially of which is located on the other side of the open end and forms a gap between the door cover and the open end.

[0007] The clothes processing device provided by the present invention comprises a main body, a drum, a working drum and a door seal. The drum is arranged inside the main body and used as a front drum of the clothes processing device; the working drum is rotatably arranged inside the drum, the working drum is located inside the open end of the drum, and at least part of it is located inside the drum; the door seal is arranged on the main body and can ensure the sealing of the working chamber during the operation of the clothes processing device to prevent clothes or liquids in the working chamber from overflowing.

[0008] In particular, the door seal has a door cover disposed toward one side of the cylinder. The present invention optimizes the position of the door cover to ensure that at least part of the door cover is located outside the opening end, so that there is a certain gap between at least part of the door cover located outside the opening end and the opening end of the working cylinder. In this way, during the operation of the clothing treatment device, the door seal will not block the flow of the liquid descending from the cylinder and the working cylinder, ensuring that the liquid can flow from the gap, thereby ensuring the amount of liquid falling from the cylinder, thereby ensuring the tumbling effect of the liquid in the cylinder, which improves the washing effect of the clothes on the one hand, and improves the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid on the other hand.

[0009] Therefore, the clothing processing setting proposed in the present invention arranges at least part of the door cover on the outside of the opening end of the cylinder, so that there is a certain gap between at least part of the door cover located outside the opening end and the opening end of the working cylinder, thereby ensuring the amount of liquid falling from the inside of the cylinder, which improves the cleaning effect on the clothes on the one hand, and improves the visual effect of the churning impact of the liquid on the other hand.

[0010] The clothes processing device according to the above technical solution of the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:

[0011] In the above technical solution, the working cylinder has a working chamber; the gap is at least connected to the top of the working chamber.

[0012] In this technical solution, the working cylinder has a working chamber, and the working chamber is also used to place the clothes to be processed. In addition, the gap is at least connected to the opening of the working chamber and the top of the cylinder body, so that the upper liquid in the cylinder body and the upper liquid outside the working cylinder can flow down directly through the gap.

[0013] Specifically, during the operation of the clothing processing device, the working cylinder rotates at a certain speed, and due to the existence of centrifugal force, part of the liquid in the working cylinder is thrown to the top inside the cylinder and outside the working cylinder. In the related art, the door cover of the door seal directly extends into the interior of the cylinder, so that the door seal blocks the falling of this part of the liquid. The door of the present invention sets at least part of the cover on the outside of the open end of the cylinder, ensuring that there is a certain gap between at least part of the door cover located outside the open end and the open end of the working cylinder, ensuring that the door seal will not affect the falling of this part of the liquid, and can further add a flow path for the liquid on the basis of the original flow path of the liquid, thereby ensuring the amount of falling liquid, improving the cleaning effect on the clothes, and improving the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid.

[0014] In any of the above technical solutions, part of the door cover is located on the other side of the opening end and forms a gap with the opening end.

[0015] In this technical solution, part of the door cover is located outside the opening end and forms the above-mentioned gap with the opening end. That is, it is only necessary to ensure that a local area of ​​the door cover is located outside the opening end so that a gap is formed between the local area of ​​the door cover and the opening end of the cylinder, thereby preventing the door seal in the local area from affecting the drop of liquid.

[0016] In any of the above technical solutions, the working cylinder is transversely arranged on the main body and can rotate relative to the main body; in the height direction of the main body, the part of the door cover forming a gap with the open end is higher than the rotation axis of the working cylinder.

[0017] In this technical solution, the working cylinder is arranged transversely on the main body and can rotate relative to the main body to process clothes, and the rotating shaft of the working cylinder extends transversely. When a gap is formed between a local area of ​​the door cover and the open end of the cylinder body, it is ensured that the above-mentioned gap is formed between the part of the door cover that is higher than the rotation axis of the working cylinder and the open end. In other words, it is ensured that a gap is formed between the part of the door cover that is at a higher position and the open end. In this way, it is ensured that the gap is connected to the top of the working chamber, and it is ensured that the liquid thrown to the top can smoothly fall into the working chamber, and it is ensured that the part of the door cover that is at a higher position will not affect the falling of the liquid.

[0018] In any of the above technical solutions, the entire door cover is located on the other side of the opening end and forms a gap between the door cover and the opening end.

[0019] In this technical solution, the entire door cover is located outside the opening end, and the above-mentioned gap is formed between the door cover and the opening end. That is, it is necessary to ensure that the entire area of ​​the door cover is located outside the opening end, so that a gap is formed between the entire area of ​​the door cover and the opening end of the cylinder, thereby preventing the door seal from affecting the drop of liquid at any position.

[0020] In any of the above technical solutions, the door seal has a bending portion, which is bent toward one side of the opening end; and the door cover is formed on a wall surface of the bending portion facing the opening end.

[0021] In this technical solution, the door seal has a bent portion. The bent portion is bent toward one side of the opening end, and the door cover is the wall surface of the bent portion facing the opening end. In particular, since the bent portion is bent toward one side of the opening end, the bent portion is most likely to block the liquid from falling. This is because the wall surface of the bent portion facing the opening end is located outside the opening end, thereby ensuring that the bent portion does not affect the liquid from falling, and ensuring the amount of liquid falling.

[0022] In any of the above technical solutions, the bent portion is a folded edge, and the folded edge is formed on the peripheral edge of the door seal.

[0023] In this technical solution, the bent portion is a folded edge, wherein the folded edge is formed on the peripheral edge of the door seal and extends toward one side of the opening end. Thus, the door cover is the wall surface with the folded edge facing the opening end.

[0024] In any of the above technical solutions, a space is formed between the cylinder and the working cylinder; the gap communicates with the space and the working chamber.

[0025] In this technical solution, there is a certain distance between the cylinder and the working cylinder, and a space is formed between the cylinder and the working cylinder. During the operation of the clothing processing device, part of the liquid separated from the working cylinder due to centrifugal force will enter the space between the cylinder and the working cylinder. Therefore, the present invention sets a gap to communicate with the above space and the working chamber to ensure that the folded edge of the door seal will not affect the drop of the liquid in the space.

[0026] In addition, the gap can be further used for liquid to fall on the basis of the original flow path, providing an additional flow path for the falling liquid to further increase the amount of falling liquid.

[0027] In any of the above technical solutions, in the height direction of the main body, the space is at least partially located at the top outside the working cavity.

[0028] In this technical solution, during the operation of the laundry treatment device, part of the liquid separated from the working cylinder due to centrifugal force will enter the space between the cylinder body and the working cylinder, and at least part of it will be located above the outside of the working cylinder. Therefore, in the height direction of the body, the design space is at least partly located at the top of the working chamber, so that the liquid in this part of the space can directly flow back to the inside of the working chamber under the action of gravity, and it can be ensured that the folded edge of the door seal will not affect the drop of the liquid in this part of the space.

[0029] In any of the above technical solutions, a flow port is provided on the door seal, and the flow port is connected to the space and the working chamber.

[0030] In this technical solution, a flow hole is provided on the door seal. The flow hole runs through the door seal and communicates between the space and the working chamber. In this way, the flow interface of the liquid in the space can be further increased, the falling channel of the liquid in the space can be improved, the amount of falling liquid can be guaranteed, the washing effect on the clothes can be improved, and the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid can be improved.

[0031] In any of the above technical solutions, the flow port is at least connected to the top outside the working chamber.

[0032] In this technical solution, the flow port is at least connected to the top of the working chamber, and is connected to the partial space above the working chamber and the top outside the working chamber. In this way, the liquid in the partial space can directly flow through the flow port under the action of gravity and return to the inside of the working chamber, and it can be ensured that the folded edge of the door seal will not affect the drop of the liquid in the partial space.

[0033] In any of the above technical solutions, the clothing processing device further includes: a driving device, which is arranged on the main body and connected to the working cylinder; and a door body, which is arranged on the main body and can be used to open or close the opening end.

[0034] In this technical solution, the clothing processing device further includes a driving device. The driving device is arranged inside the body and connected to the working cylinder. The driving device can drive the working cylinder to rotate when it is running, thereby processing the clothes to be processed in the working cylinder. In addition, the clothing processing device further includes a door body. The door body is rotatably arranged on the body and can be used to close the open end of the cylinder.

[0035] In any of the above technical solutions, the clothing processing device further includes a transparent portion, which is arranged on the door body.

[0036] In this technical solution, a transparent part is provided on the door body, and the liquid falling from the inside of the main body can directly impact the transparent part, so that the user can observe the strong visual impact of the water flow through the transparent part, thereby improving the visual effect.

[0037] In any of the above technical solutions, the transparent part is a door glass, and the door glass protrudes toward one side of the working cavity.

[0038] In this technical solution, the door glass on the door body defines the transparent portion to simplify the structure of the door body. In addition, the door glass protrudes toward one side of the working cavity and is located below the top space. In this way, the liquid in the top space will directly fall onto the door glass, thereby forming a visual effect of liquid agitation and enhancing the visual effect of liquid tumbling and impact.

[0039] In any of the above technical solutions, the driving device and the door are on opposite sides of the working cylinder.

[0040] In this technical solution, the driving device and the door seal are located on opposite sides of the working cylinder. The driving device is arranged inside the main body and is located on the driving side of the cylinder; the door seal is arranged on the other side of the main body and is used in conjunction with the door body to ensure the sealing of the working chamber.

[0041] In this technical solution, the clothes processing device further comprises a door body, wherein the door body is rotatably arranged on the main body and can be used to close the open end of the drum.

[0042] In addition, a transparent part is provided on the door body, and the liquid falling from the inside of the main body can directly impact the transparent part, so that the user can observe the strong visual impact of the water flow through the transparent part, thereby enhancing the visual effect.

[0055] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0056] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0057] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 8 The laundry processing apparatus provided according to some embodiments of the present invention will be described. Figure 4 The arrow in the middle indicates the general flow direction of the liquid, but the liquid does not flow only along Figure 4 Flow as indicated by the arrows.

[0058] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a clothes processing device, including: a main body (not shown in the figure), a drum 200, a working drum 300 and a door seal 400.

[0059] Among them, Figure 4 As shown, the drum 200 is arranged inside the main body and used as the front drum of the clothing processing device; the working drum 300 is rotatably arranged inside the drum 200, the working drum 300 is located on the inner side of the opening end 202 of the drum 200, and is at least partially located inside the drum 200; the door seal 400 is arranged on the main body, and can ensure the sealing of the working chamber 302 during the operation of the clothing processing device to prevent the clothing or liquid in the working chamber 302 from overflowing.

[0060] In particular, if Figure 4 As shown, the door seal 400 has a door cover 402 disposed toward one side of the cylinder 200. The present invention optimizes the position of the door cover 402 to ensure that at least part of the door cover 402 is located outside the opening end 202, so that there is a certain gap 700 between at least part of the door cover 402 located outside the opening end 202 and the opening end 202 of the working cylinder 300. In this way, during the operation of the clothing processing device, the door seal 400 will not block the flow of the descending liquid of the cylinder 200 and the working cylinder 300, ensuring that the part of the liquid can flow from the gap 700, thereby ensuring the amount of liquid falling from the inside of the cylinder 200, thereby ensuring the tumbling effect of the liquid in the cylinder 200, which improves the washing effect on the clothes on the one hand, and improves the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid on the other hand.

[0061] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, during the operation of the laundry treatment device, the working cylinder 300 rotates at a certain speed, so that part of the liquid in the cylinder 200 is thrown to the upper part inside the cylinder 200 and the upper part outside the working cylinder 300. In this embodiment, at least part of the door cover 402 is arranged outside the opening end 202 of the cylinder 200, ensuring that there is a certain gap 700 between at least part of the door cover 402 located outside the opening end 202 and the opening end 202 of the working cylinder 300, ensuring the amount of falling liquid, improving the washing effect on the clothes, and improving the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid.

[0062] Therefore, the clothing processing setting proposed in this embodiment arranges at least a part of the door cover 402 on the outside of the opening end 202 of the cylinder 200, so that there is a certain gap 700 between at least a part of the door cover 402 located on the outside of the opening end 202 and the opening end 202 of the working cylinder 300, thereby ensuring the amount of liquid falling from the inside of the cylinder 200, which improves the cleaning effect on the clothes on the one hand, and improves the visual effect of the churning impact of the liquid on the other hand.

[0063] The second embodiment of the present invention provides a clothes processing device, which further comprises:

[0064] like Figure 1 As shown, the working cylinder 300 has a working chamber 302, and the working chamber 302 is also used to place the clothes to be processed. In addition, the gap 700 is at least connected to the opening of the working chamber 302 and the top of the cylinder 200, so that the liquid located above the cylinder 200 and above the working cylinder 300 can flow down directly through the gap 700.

[0065] Specifically, Figure 1 As shown, during the operation of the clothing treatment device, the working cylinder 300 rotates at a certain speed, and due to the existence of centrifugal force, part of the liquid in the cylinder 200 is thrown to the upper part inside the cylinder 200 and the upper part outside the working cylinder 300. In the related art, the door cover of the door seal directly extends into the interior of the cylinder, so that the door seal blocks the falling of this part of the liquid. In this embodiment, at least part of the door cover 402 is arranged on the outside of the opening end 202 of the cylinder 200, ensuring that there is a certain gap 700 between at least part of the door cover 402 located on the outside of the opening end 202 and the opening end 202 of the working cylinder 300, ensuring that the door seal 400 will not affect the falling of this part of the liquid, and can further add a flow path for the liquid on the basis of the original flow path of the liquid, ensuring the amount of liquid falling, improving the cleaning effect on the clothes, and improving the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid.

[0066] In addition, the clothing processing device proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the clothing processing device of Embodiment 1, which can increase the amount of liquid falling inside the drum 200, improve the cleaning effect on the clothes, and enhance the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0067] The third embodiment of the present invention provides a clothes processing device, which is based on the first embodiment and further comprises:

[0068] like Figure 4 As shown, part of the door cover 402 is located outside the opening end 202, and the above-mentioned gap 700 is formed between the door cover 402 and the opening end 202. That is, it is only necessary to ensure that a local area of ​​the door cover 402 is located outside the opening end 202, so that a gap 700 is formed between the local area of ​​the door cover 402 and the opening end 202 of the cylinder 200, thereby preventing the door seal 400 in the local area from affecting the falling of the liquid.

[0069] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1As shown, the working cylinder 300 is disposed transversely on the main body and can rotate relative to the main body to process clothes, and the rotating shaft of the working cylinder 300 extends transversely. When a gap 700 is formed between a local area of ​​the door cover 402 and the open end 202 of the cylinder body 200, it is ensured that the above-mentioned gap 700 is formed between the part of the door cover 402 that is higher than the rotation axis of the working cylinder 300 and the open end 202. That is, it is ensured that a gap 700 is formed between the higher part of the door cover 402 and the open end 202. In this way, it is ensured that the gap 700 is connected to the top of the working chamber 302, and it is ensured that the liquid thrown to the top can smoothly fall into the working chamber 302, and it is ensured that the higher part of the door cover 402 will not affect the falling of the liquid.

[0070] In addition, the clothing processing device proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the clothing processing device of Embodiment 1, which can increase the amount of liquid falling inside the drum 200, improve the cleaning effect on the clothes, and enhance the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0071] The fourth embodiment of the present invention provides a clothes processing device, which is based on the first embodiment and further comprises:

[0072] like Figure 4 As shown, the entire door cover 402 is located outside the opening end 202, and the above-mentioned gap 700 is formed between the door cover 402 and the opening end 202. That is, it is necessary to ensure that the entire area of ​​the door cover 402 is located outside the opening end 202, so that the gap 700 is formed between the entire area of ​​the door cover 402 and the opening end 202 of the cylinder 200, thereby preventing the door seal 400 from affecting the drop of liquid at any position.

[0073] In addition, the clothing processing device proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the clothing processing device of Embodiment 1, which can increase the amount of liquid falling inside the drum 200, improve the cleaning effect on the clothes, and enhance the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0074] A fifth embodiment of the present invention provides a clothes processing device, which is based on the first embodiment and further comprises:

[0075] like Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the door seal 400 has a bent portion 404. The bent portion 404 is bent toward the side of the opening end 202, and the door cover 402 is the wall of the bent portion 404 facing the opening end 202. In particular, since the bent portion 404 is bent toward the side of the opening end 202, the bent portion 404 is most likely to block the liquid from falling. Because the wall of the bent portion 404 facing the opening end 202 is ensured to be located outside the opening end 202, it is ensured that the bent portion 404 will not affect the liquid from falling, and the amount of liquid falling is ensured.

[0076] In this embodiment, further, Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the bent portion 404 is a folded edge. The folded edge is formed on the peripheral edge of the door seal 400 and extends toward the side of the opening end 202. In this way, the door cover 402 is a wall surface with the folded edge facing the opening end 202.

[0077] In addition, the clothing processing device proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the clothing processing device of Embodiment 1, which can increase the amount of liquid falling inside the drum 200, improve the cleaning effect on the clothes, and enhance the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0078] The sixth embodiment of the present invention provides a clothes processing device, which is based on the first embodiment and further comprises:

[0079] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, there is a certain distance between the cylinder 200 and the working cylinder 300, and a space 500 is formed between the cylinder 200 and the working cylinder 300. During the operation of the laundry processing device, part of the liquid separated from the working cylinder 300 due to centrifugal force will enter the space 500 between the cylinder 200 and the working cylinder 300. Therefore, the present invention sets a gap 700 to communicate with the above-mentioned space 500 and the working chamber 302, ensuring that the folded edge of the door seal 400 will not affect the drop of the liquid in the space 500.

[0080] In addition, the gap 700 can be further used for the liquid to fall on the basis of the original flow path, providing an additional flow path for the falling liquid to further increase the amount of falling liquid.

[0081] In this embodiment, further, during the operation of the laundry processing device, part of the liquid separated from the working cylinder 300 due to centrifugal force will enter the space 500 between the cylinder body 200 and the working cylinder 300, and at least part of it is located above the outside of the working cylinder 300. Therefore, in the height direction of the body, the space 500 is designed to be at least partly located at the top outside the working chamber 302, so that the liquid in the part of the space 500 can directly flow back to the inside of the working chamber 302 under the action of gravity, and it can be ensured that the folded edge of the door seal 400 will not affect the drop of the liquid in the part of the space 500.

[0082] In this embodiment, further, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the door seal 400 is provided with a flow port 406. The flow port 406 runs through the door seal 400 and communicates between the space 500 and the working chamber 302. In this way, the flow interface of the liquid in the space 500 can be further increased, the falling channel of the liquid in the space 500 can be improved, the amount of falling liquid can be guaranteed, the washing effect on the clothes can be improved, and the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid can be improved.

[0083] In this embodiment, further, the flow port 406 is at least connected to the top of the working chamber 302, and is connected to the partial space 500 located above the working chamber 302 and the top of the working chamber 302. In this way, the liquid in the partial space 500 can directly flow through the flow port 406 under the action of gravity and return to the inside of the working chamber 302, and it can be ensured that the folded edge of the door seal 400 will not affect the drop of the liquid in the partial space 500.

[0084] In addition, the clothing processing device proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the clothing processing device of Embodiment 1, which can increase the amount of liquid falling inside the drum 200, improve the cleaning effect on the clothes, and enhance the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0085] The seventh embodiment of the present invention provides a clothes processing device, which is based on the first embodiment and further comprises:

[0086] like Figure 1 As shown, the clothes processing device further includes a driving device 600. The driving device 600 is arranged inside the body and connected to the working cylinder 300. The driving device 600 can drive the working cylinder 300 to rotate, thereby processing the clothes to be processed in the working cylinder 300.

[0087] In this embodiment, the laundry processing device further includes a door body. The door body is rotatably disposed on the main body and can be used to close the open end 202 of the drum 200. In addition, a transparent portion is disposed on the door body, and the liquid falling from the inside of the main body can directly impact the transparent portion, so that the user can observe a strong visual impact of the water flow through the transparent portion, thereby improving the visual effect.

[0088] Specifically, the door glass on the door body defines the transparent portion to simplify the structure of the door body. In addition, the door glass protrudes toward the working cavity 302 and is located below the top space 500. In this way, the liquid in the top space 500 will directly fall onto the door glass, thereby forming a visual effect of liquid agitation and enhancing the visual effect of liquid tumbling and impact.

[0089] In addition, the driving device 600 and the door seal 400 are located on opposite sides of the working cylinder 300. The driving device 600 is arranged inside the main body and is located on the driving side of the cylinder 200; the door seal 400 is arranged on the other side of the main body and is used in conjunction with the door body to ensure the sealing of the working chamber 302.

[0090] In addition, the clothing processing device proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the clothing processing device of Embodiment 1, which can increase the amount of liquid falling inside the drum 200, improve the cleaning effect on the clothes, and enhance the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0091] In a specific embodiment, the clothing processing device proposed in the present invention may be a washing machine, a dryer, a washer-dryer, etc.

[0092] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first specific embodiment of the present invention proposes a clothing processing device, including a main body, a cylinder 200, a working cylinder 300 and a door seal 400. The cylinder 200 is arranged inside the main body, the working cylinder 300 is rotatably arranged inside the cylinder 200, the working cylinder 300 is located on the inner side of the open end 202 of the cylinder 200, and is at least partially located inside the cylinder 200; the door seal 400 is arranged on the main body. The working cylinder 300 has a working chamber 302, and the working chamber 302 is also used to place the clothes to be processed. In addition, as Figure 4 As shown, the gap 700 is at least connected to the opening of the working chamber 302 and the top of the cylinder 200 , so that the liquid located in the direction of the working chamber 302 can directly flow down through the gap 700 .

[0093] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1As shown, the working cylinder 300 is disposed transversely on the main body and can rotate relative to the main body to process clothes, and the rotating shaft of the working cylinder 300 extends transversely. When a gap 700 is formed between a local area of ​​the door cover 402 and the open end 202 of the cylinder 200, it is ensured that the part of the door cover 402 that is higher than the rotation axis of the working cylinder 300 forms the above-mentioned gap 700 with the open end 202. Specifically, the entire door cover 402 is located outside the open end 202, and the above-mentioned gap 700 is formed between the open end 202. That is, it is necessary to ensure that the entire area of ​​the door cover 402 is located outside the open end 202, so that the gap 700 is formed between the entire area of ​​the door cover 402 and the open end 202 of the cylinder 200, and thus the door seal 400 can be prevented from affecting the falling of liquid at any position.

[0094] In this embodiment, further, Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the door seal 400 has a bent portion 404, and the door cover 402 is the wall of the bent portion 404 facing the opening end 202. It is ensured that the wall of the bent portion 404 facing the opening end 202 is located outside the opening end 202, thereby ensuring that the bent portion 404 does not affect the drop of the liquid, thereby ensuring the amount of liquid dropped. Specifically, the bent portion 404 is a folded edge, and the folded edge is formed on the peripheral side edge of the door seal 400.

[0095] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, there is a space 500 between the cylinder 200 and the working cylinder 300, and the gap 700 is connected with the above space 500 and the working chamber 302, so as to ensure that the folded edge of the door seal 400 does not affect the drop of the liquid in the space 500. Specifically, in the height direction of the body, the space 500 is designed to be at least partially located at the top of the working chamber 302, so that the liquid in the space 500 can directly flow back to the inside of the working chamber 302 under the action of gravity.

[0096] In this embodiment, further, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the door seal 400 is provided with a flow port 406. The flow port 406 can further increase the flow interface of the liquid in the space 500, improve the falling channel of the liquid in the space 500, ensure the amount of falling liquid, improve the washing effect on the clothes, and improve the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid. Specifically, the flow port 406 is at least connected to the top of the working chamber 302, and is connected to the part of the space 500 located above the working chamber 302 and the top of the working chamber 302.

[0097] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1As shown, the laundry processing apparatus further comprises a driving device 600 , which can drive the working drum 300 to rotate, thereby processing the laundry to be processed in the working drum 300 .

[0098] In this embodiment, further, the clothing processing device also includes a door body. A transparent portion is provided on the door body, and the liquid falling inside the body can directly impact the transparent portion, so that the user can observe a strong visual impact of the water flow through the transparent portion, thereby enhancing the visual effect. Specifically, the door glass on the door body defines the above-mentioned transparent portion to simplify the structure of the door body. In addition, the door glass protrudes toward one side of the working cavity 302 and is located below the space 500 at the top.

[0099] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the second specific embodiment of the present invention proposes a clothing processing device, including a main body, a cylinder 200, a working cylinder 300 and a door seal 400. The cylinder 200 is arranged inside the main body, the working cylinder 300 is rotatably arranged inside the cylinder 200, the working cylinder 300 is located on the inner side of the open end 202 of the cylinder 200, and is at least partially located inside the cylinder 200; the door seal 400 is arranged on the main body. The working cylinder 300 has a working chamber 302, and the working chamber 302 is also used to place the clothes to be processed. In addition, as Figure 4 As shown, the gap 700 is at least connected to the top of the working chamber 302 , so that the liquid located in the direction of the working chamber 302 can directly flow down through the gap 700 .

[0100] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1 As shown, the working cylinder 300 is disposed transversely on the body and can rotate relative to the body to process the clothes, and the rotating shaft of the working cylinder 300 extends transversely. Figure 4 As shown, the entire door cover 402 is located outside the opening end 202, and the above-mentioned gap 700 is formed between the door cover 402 and the opening end 202. That is, it is necessary to ensure that the entire area of ​​the door cover 402 is located outside the opening end 202, so that the gap 700 is formed between the entire area of ​​the door cover 402 and the opening end 202 of the cylinder 200, thereby preventing the door seal 400 from affecting the drop of liquid at any position.

[0101] In this embodiment, further, Figure 4 As shown, the door seal 400 has a bent portion 404, and the door cover 402 is the wall of the bent portion 404 facing the opening end 202. It is ensured that the wall of the bent portion 404 facing the opening end 202 is located outside the opening end 202, thereby ensuring that the bent portion 404 does not affect the drop of the liquid, thereby ensuring the amount of liquid dropped. Specifically, as Figure 4 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the bent portion 404 is a folded edge, and the folded edge is formed at the peripheral edge of the door seal 400 .

[0102] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, there is a space 500 between the cylinder 200 and the working cylinder 300, and the gap 700 is connected to the above space 500 and the working chamber 302, ensuring that the folded edge of the door seal 400 does not affect the drop of the liquid in the space 500. Specifically, in the height direction of the body, the space 500 is designed to be at least partially located at the top of the working chamber 302, so that the liquid in this part of the space 500 can directly flow back to the inside of the working chamber 302 under the action of gravity.

[0103] In this embodiment, further, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the door seal 400 is provided with a flow port 406. The flow port 406 can further increase the flow interface of the liquid in the space 500, improve the falling channel of the liquid in the space 500, ensure the amount of falling liquid, improve the washing effect on the clothes, and improve the visual effect of the tumbling impact of the liquid. Specifically, the flow port 406 is at least connected to the top of the working chamber 302, and is connected to the part of the space 500 located above the working chamber 302 and the top of the working chamber 302.

[0104] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1 As shown, the laundry processing apparatus further comprises a driving device 600 , which can drive the working drum 300 to rotate, thereby processing the laundry to be processed in the working drum 300 .

[0105] In this embodiment, further, the clothing processing device also includes a door body. A transparent portion is provided on the door body, and the liquid falling inside the body can directly impact the transparent portion, so that the user can observe a strong visual impact of the water flow through the transparent portion, thereby enhancing the visual effect. Specifically, the door glass on the door body defines the above-mentioned transparent portion to simplify the structure of the door body. In addition, the door glass protrudes toward one side of the working cavity 302 and is located below the space 500 at the top.

[0106] In a specific embodiment, the existing washing machine has a gap between the door seal and the working drum that cannot meet the water flow requirement, and the door cover of the door seal extends into the drum, which seriously affects the water flow.

[0107] Specifically, when the working cylinder rotates at a certain speed, due to the centrifugal force, a certain amount of water fills the space between the cylinder and the working cylinder. Under the action of gravity, a large amount of liquid in the upper space will fall from the gap between the working cylinder and the door seal, and the gap between the cylinder and the door seal. In the related art, due to the minimum gap standard between the working cylinder and the door seal, the water flow is relatively small, which cannot cause a strong visual impact of the water flow.

[0108] Therefore, if Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the present invention improves the setting position of the door seal 400, so that part of the door cover 402 is located on the other side of the opening end 202 and a gap 700 is formed between the door cover 402 and the opening end 202, or the entire door cover 402 is located on the other side of the opening end 202 and a gap 700 is formed between the door cover 402 and the opening end 202.

[0109] In addition, if Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the present invention is provided with a flow port 406 on the door seal 400 to increase the water flow falling interface and increase the falling centrifugal water flow rate, which can greatly increase the amount of falling liquid and thus significantly improve the visual effect.

[0110] Specifically, the clothing processing device proposed in the present invention may be a washing machine, a dryer, a washer-dryer, etc.
