Technical Field

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

[0002] In existing laundry processing equipment such as washing machines, the rotating washing drum and the fixed part all use wireless communication to achieve data communication and power supply. However, the cost of wireless communication is high and the reliability is poor. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] To this end, a first aspect of the present invention provides a barrel assembly.

[0005] A second aspect of the present invention provides a clothes treating apparatus.

[0006] A first aspect of the present invention provides a barrel assembly, comprising: a barrel housing portion, in which a washing barrel is arranged; a first electrical connection device, which is arranged on the barrel housing portion, and the first electrical connection device comprises: an elastic mounting member, which is connected to the barrel housing portion; a first electrical connection member, which is arranged on the elastic mounting member; a transmission device, which is connected to the washing barrel and can drive the washing barrel to rotate; a second electrical connection device, which is arranged on the transmission device and abuts against the elastic mounting member, and the second electrical connection device comprises a second electrical connection member, and the first electrical connection member is in contact with the second electrical connection member.

[0007] The barrel assembly proposed by the present invention includes a barrel housing, a first electrical connection device, a transmission device and a second electrical connection device. Among them, a washing barrel is arranged in the barrel housing, and the washing barrel can be used to place the clothes to be processed, and the washing barrel rotates compared with the barrel housing during the working process; the first electrical connection device is arranged on the barrel housing; the transmission device is connected to the washing barrel, and can drive the washing barrel to rotate under the drive of the driving device to process the clothes in the washing barrel; the second electrical connection device is arranged on the transmission device and rotates with the transmission device; the second electrical connection device cooperates with the first electrical connection device, thereby realizing the smooth signal transmission and stable power supply between the fixed barrel housing and the rotating washing barrel, and at the same time, the cost of the barrel assembly can be greatly reduced through wired transmission.

[0008] Specifically, the first electrical connection device includes an elastic mounting member and a first electrical connection member used in conjunction with each other; the elastic mounting member is arranged on the barrel portion, and the first electrical connection member is arranged on the elastic mounting member and can rotate relative to the elastic mounting member, and the elastic mounting member itself has a certain elasticity; the second electrical connection device includes a second electrical connection member. After the barrel assembly is assembled, the second electrical connection device abuts against the elastic mounting member of the first electrical connection device, so that the second electrical connection member contacts the first electrical connection member, thereby realizing signal transmission and power supply.

[0009] In addition, due to the elasticity of the elastic mounting part itself, during the assembly of the barrel assembly, the elastic mounting part will apply a certain pre-tightening force to the first electrical connector, and the pre-tightening force will separate the first electrical connector from the second electrical connector, thereby facilitating the assembly of the second electrical connector and the transmission device. Moreover, after the assembly of the barrel assembly is completed, the second electrical connector abuts against the elastic mounting part of the first electrical connector, so that the first electrical connector contacts the second electrical connector under the action of the elastic mounting part, which ensures that even when the second electrical connector rotates with the transmission device, the first electrical connector and the second electrical connector can always be in contact, thereby ensuring the reliability of signal transmission and the reliability of power supply.

[0010] Therefore, the cylinder assembly proposed in the present invention adopts a wired connection method to ensure signal transmission and power supply; and, compared with the wireless connection method adopted in the related art, the cost of the cylinder assembly can be greatly reduced.

[0011] The barrel assembly according to the above technical solution of the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:

[0012] In the above technical solution, the elastic mounting member includes: a fixing frame, which is arranged on the cylindrical portion; a mounting frame, which is rotatably connected to the fixing frame, and the first electrical connector is arranged on the mounting frame; an elastic member, which abuts against the fixing frame and the mounting frame; wherein the second electrical connector abuts against the mounting frame, and the first electrical connector abuts against the second electrical connector under the action of the mounting frame.

[0013] In this technical solution, the elastic mounting member includes a fixing frame, a mounting frame and an elastic member used in conjunction with each other. The fixing frame is mounted on the cylindrical mounting portion, the mounting frame is rotatably mounted on the fixing frame, and both ends of the elastic member are respectively in contact with the fixing frame and the mounting frame; the first electrical connector is arranged on the mounting frame, and the elastic member can apply a pre-tightening force to one end of the mounting frame provided with the first electrical connector, so as to facilitate the assembly of the second electrical connector device and the transmission device.

[0014] Specifically, during the assembly of the cylinder assembly, the second electrical connection device will abut against the mounting frame and squeeze the mounting frame so that the mounting frame rotates relative to the fixed frame; the rotation of the mounting frame will drive the first electrical connection member to move toward the second electrical connection member and ensure contact and electrical conduction between the first electrical connection member and the second electrical connection member; and in the process of the second electrical connection device squeezing the mounting frame, the elastic member applies a pre-tightening force to one end of the mounting frame where the first electrical connection member is provided. Due to the existence of the pre-tightening force, a certain distance is ensured between the first electrical connection member and the second electrical connection member to facilitate assembly by the staff.

[0015] In any of the above technical solutions, the mounting frame includes a first end and a second end opposite to each other; the first electrical connector is located at the first end, and the elastic member abuts between the second end and the fixing frame; the second electrical connector abuts the second end so that the first electrical connector abuts the second electrical connector.

[0017] Thus, during the assembly of the barrel assembly, the second electrical connection device squeezes the second end of the mounting frame to rotate the mounting frame, so that the first electrical connection member moves along with the first end toward the second electrical connection member until the first electrical connection member contacts the second electrical connection member. During the process of the second electrical connection device squeezing the second end of the fixing frame, the first end of the mounting frame continuously approaches the second electrical connection member to ensure that the first electrical connection member contacts the second electrical connection member stably.

[0018] In any of the above technical solutions, an assembly slope is formed on the second end; the second electrical connection device moves toward the barrel portion to continuously press the assembly slope, thereby causing the mounting frame to gradually rotate.

[0019] In this technical solution, an assembly slope is formed on the second end, and the second end abuts against the second electrical connection device through the above-mentioned assembly slope to ensure that the mounting frame gradually rotates.

[0020] In particular, due to the existence of the assembly slope, the moving distance of the second electrical connection device is positively correlated with the rotation distance of the mounting bracket. Therefore, by controlling the moving distance of the second electrical connection device, the rotation angle of the mounting bracket can be guaranteed, that is, the contact degree between the first electrical connection member and the second electrical connection member is guaranteed, which, on the one hand, avoids excessive contact between the first electrical connection member and the second electrical connection member to affect the rotation of the washing tub, and on the other hand, ensures the contact degree between the first electrical connection member and the second electrical connection member, and also ensures the compression degree of the elastic member.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0061] 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.

[0062] 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.

[0063] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 12 The barrel assembly and the laundry processing apparatus provided according to some embodiments of the present invention are described.

[0064] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a barrel assembly, including a barrel housing 100 , a first electrical connection device 200 , a transmission device 300 and a second electrical connection device 400 .

[0065] Among them, Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a washing drum (not shown in the figure) is provided in the barrel-containing part 100, and the washing drum can be used to place clothes to be processed, and the washing drum rotates compared with the barrel-containing part 100 during the working process; the first electrical connection device 200 is provided on the barrel-containing part 100; the transmission device 300 is connected to the washing drum, and can drive the washing drum to rotate under the drive of the driving device to process the clothes in the washing drum; the second electrical connection device 400 is provided on the transmission device 300, and rotates with the transmission device 300; the second electrical connection device 400 cooperates with the first electrical connection device 200, thereby realizing smooth signal transmission and smooth power supply between the fixed barrel-containing part 100 and the rotating washing drum, and at the same time, the cost of the barrel assembly can be greatly reduced through wired transmission.

[0066] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the first electrical connection device 200 includes an elastic mounting member 202 and a first electrical connection member 204 used in conjunction with each other; the elastic mounting member 202 is arranged on the barrel portion 100, and the first electrical connection member 204 is arranged on the elastic mounting member 202 and can rotate compared with the elastic mounting member 202. In addition, the elastic mounting member 202 itself has a certain elasticity; the second electrical connection device 400 includes a second electrical connection member 402. After the barrel assembly is assembled, the second electrical connection device 400 abuts against the elastic mounting member 202 of the first electrical connection device 200, so that the second electrical connection member 402 contacts the first electrical connection member 204, thereby realizing signal transmission and power supply.

[0067] In addition, due to the elasticity of the elastic mounting member 202 itself, during the assembly of the barrel assembly, the elastic mounting member 202 will apply a certain pre-tightening force to the first electrical connector 204, and the pre-tightening force will separate the first electrical connector 204 from the second electrical connector 402, thereby facilitating the assembly of the second electrical connector 400 and the transmission device 300. Moreover, after the assembly of the barrel assembly is completed, since the second electrical connector 400 abuts against the mounting bracket 208 of the first electrical connector 200, the first electrical connector 204 contacts the second electrical connector 402 under the action of the mounting bracket 208, ensuring that even when the second electrical connector 402 rotates with the transmission device 300, the first electrical connector 204 and the second electrical connector 402 can always be in contact, thereby ensuring the reliability of signal transmission and the reliability of power supply.

[0068] Therefore, the cylinder assembly proposed in this embodiment adopts a wired connection method to ensure signal transmission and power supply; and, compared with the wireless connection method adopted in the related art, the cost of the cylinder assembly can be greatly reduced.

[0069] The second embodiment of the present invention provides a barrel assembly, which is further based on the first embodiment:

[0070] like Figure 4 As shown, the elastic mounting member 202 includes a fixing frame 206, a mounting frame 208 and an elastic member 210 used in conjunction with each other. The fixing frame 206 is mounted on the barrel-mounted portion 100, the mounting frame 208 is rotatably mounted on the fixing frame 206, and the two ends of the elastic member 210 are respectively in contact with the fixing frame 206 and the mounting frame 208; the first electrical connector 204 is arranged on the mounting frame 208, and the mounting frame 208 rotates relative to the fixing frame 206 to make the first electrical connector 204 move toward the second electrical connector 402 and contact the second electrical connector 402, and the elastic member 210 can apply a pre-tightening force to one end of the mounting frame 208 provided with the first electrical connector 204, so as to facilitate the assembly of the second electrical connection device 400 and the transmission device 300.

[0071] Specifically, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, during the assembly process of the cylinder assembly, the second electrical connection device 400 will abut against the mounting frame 208 and squeeze the mounting frame 208 so that the mounting frame 208 rotates compared to the fixed frame 206; the rotation of the mounting frame 208 will drive the first electrical connection member 204 to move toward the second electrical connection member 402, and ensure the contact and electrical conduction between the first electrical connection member 204 and the second electrical connection member 402; and in the process of the second electrical connection device 400 squeezing the mounting frame 208, the elastic member 210 applies a pre-tightening force to the mounting frame 208 at one end of the first electrical connection member 204. Due to the existence of the pre-tightening force, a certain distance is ensured between the first electrical connection member 204 and the second electrical connection member 402 to facilitate assembly by the staff.

[0072] In this embodiment, further, Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the mounting frame 208 includes a first end 212 and a second end 214. The elastic member 210 is abutted between the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208 and the fixing frame 206, the first electrical connector 204 is disposed at the first end 212 of the mounting frame 208, and the second electrical connector 400 can abut against the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208.

[0073] In this way, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, during the assembly of the barrel assembly, the second electrical connector 400 squeezes the second end 214 of the mounting bracket 208 to rotate the mounting bracket 208, so that the first electrical connector 204 moves toward the second electrical connector 402 along with the first end 212 until the first electrical connector 204 contacts the second electrical connector 402.

[0074] In addition, before the second electrical connection device 400 squeezes the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208, the first end 212 of the mounting frame 208 is away from the second electrical connection member 402 under the action of the elastic member 210, so as to facilitate the assembly of the staff. That is, during the assembly process of the second electrical connection device 400, the elastic member 210 abuts between the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208 and the fixing frame 206, and ensures that the first end 212 of the mounting frame 208 is away from the second electrical connection member 402, so as to facilitate the assembly of the staff; and after the second electrical connection device 400 is assembled, the second electrical connection device 400 squeezes the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208 to overcome the pre-tightening force of the elastic member 210, and the second electrical connection device 400 makes the first end 212 of the mounting frame 208 close to the second electrical connection member 402, so as to ensure that the first electrical connection member 204 is in contact with the second electrical connection member 402 after the assembly is completed.

[0075] In this embodiment, further, Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, an assembly slope 216 is formed on the second end 214, and the second end 214 abuts against the second electrical connection device 400 through the above-mentioned assembly slope 216 to ensure that the mounting frame 208 gradually rotates. Specifically, in the process of assembling the transmission device 300 and the second electrical connection device 400, the second electrical connection device 400 continuously moves toward the side of the barrel portion 100, and contacts the assembly slope 216 in a certain process, and gradually squeezes the assembly slope 216; in the process of the second electrical connection device 400 squeezing the assembly slope 216, the mounting frame 208 gradually rotates until the first electrical connector 204 contacts the second electrical connector 402.

[0076] In particular, due to the presence of the assembly slope 216, the moving distance of the second electrical connection device 400 is positively correlated with the rotation distance of the mounting bracket 208. Therefore, by controlling the moving distance of the second electrical connection device 400, the rotation angle of the mounting bracket 208 can be guaranteed, that is, the contact degree between the first electrical connection member 204 and the second electrical connection member 402 is guaranteed, on the one hand, the first electrical connection member 204 and the second electrical connection member 402 are prevented from excessively contacting and affecting the rotation of the washing tub, and on the other hand, the contact degree between the first electrical connection member 204 and the second electrical connection member 402 is guaranteed, and the degree of compression of the elastic member 210 is also guaranteed.

[0077] In this embodiment, further, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the elastic member 210 can be a coil spring, and ensure that the two ends of the coil spring are respectively abutted against the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208 and the fixing frame 206, thereby providing a pre-tightening force for the first electrical connector 204 through the coil spring. In addition, the elastic mounting member 202 also includes a rotating shaft 218, which is connected to the fixing frame 206 and the mounting frame 208 to ensure that the mounting frame 208 can rotate relative to the fixing frame 206; in addition, the coil spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft 218, so that the rotating shaft 218 plays a certain role in limiting and fixing the coil spring.

[0078] In a specific embodiment, before assembling the transmission device 300 and the second electrical connection device 400, the coil spring is in a squeezed state between the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208 and the fixing frame 206 and has a certain pre-tightening force, and at this time, the coil spring can separate the first electrical connection member 204 from the second electrical connection member 402. During the process of assembling the transmission device 300 and the second electrical connection device 400, the second electrical connection device 400 continuously moves toward the side of the barrel portion 100 and contacts the assembly inclined surface 216 in a certain process; the coil spring will be twisted due to squeezing during the movement of the second electrical connection device 400, so that the distance between the first electrical connection member 204 and the second electrical connection member 402 is gradually reduced, so that after the transmission device 300 and the second electrical connection device 400 are assembled, the first electrical connection member 204 contacts the second electrical connection member 402.

[0079] In this embodiment, further, Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the fixing frame 206 is provided with a first assembly portion 220. Figure 2 As shown, the bottom of the cylindrical portion 100 is provided with a second assembly portion 102, and the first assembly portion 220 is adapted to the second assembly portion 102.

[0094] In addition, the clothing processing device further includes a balancing device (not shown in the figure) and a control device (not shown in the figure). The balancing device is arranged on the washing drum and can change the gravity distribution of the washing drum, thereby solving the eccentricity problem of the washing drum during rotation; the control device is connected to the second electrical connector 402, and the balancing device is connected to the first electrical connector 204, so that the signal transmission and power supply between the control device and the balancing device are ensured, so that the control device controls the balancing device to work, adjusts the gravity distribution of the washing drum, ensures that the washing drum rotates smoothly during operation, and avoids shaking of the washing drum due to the eccentricity problem during rotation.

[0098] In a specific embodiment, the clothing processing device may be a washing machine, a dryer, a washer-dryer, etc.

[0099] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the first specific embodiment of the present invention proposes a barrel assembly, including a barrel housing 100, a first electrical connection device 200, a transmission device 300 and a second electrical connection device 400. A washing barrel is arranged in the barrel housing 100, and the washing barrel can be used to place the clothes to be processed.

[0100] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the first electrical connection device 200 includes an elastic mounting member 202 and a first electrical connection member 204 used in conjunction with each other; the elastic mounting member 202 is arranged on the barrel-mounted portion 100, and the first electrical connection member 204 is arranged on the elastic mounting member 202 and can rotate compared to the elastic mounting member 202. In addition, the elastic mounting member 202 itself has a certain elasticity; the second electrical connection device 400 includes a second electrical connection member 402.

[0101] During the assembly of the cylinder assembly, the elastic mounting member 202 applies a certain pre-tightening force to the first electrical connector 204 , which separates the first electrical connector 204 from the second electrical connector 402 , thereby facilitating the assembly of the second electrical connector 400 and the transmission device 300 .

[0102] Furthermore, after the cylinder assembly is assembled, since the second electrical connecting device 400 abuts against the elastic mounting member 202 of the first electrical connecting device 200, the first electrical connecting member 204 contacts the second electrical connecting member 402 under the action of the elastic mounting member 202, thereby ensuring that even when the second electrical connecting member 402 rotates with the transmission device 300, the first electrical connecting member 204 and the second electrical connecting member 402 can always be in contact, thereby ensuring the reliability of signal transmission and the reliability of power supply.

[0103] In this embodiment, further, Figure 4As shown, the elastic mounting member 202 includes a fixed frame 206, a mounting frame 208 and an elastic member 210 used in conjunction.

[0105] Specifically, Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the elastic member 210 can be a coil spring, and ensure that the two ends of the coil spring are respectively abutted against the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208 and the fixing frame 206, thereby providing a pre-tightening force for the first electrical connector 204 through the coil spring. The elastic mounting member 202 also includes a rotating shaft 218, which is connected to the fixing frame 206 and the mounting frame 208, and the coil spring is sleeved on the rotating shaft 218.

The specific forms of the first assembly portion 220 and the second assembly portion 102 are not limited here, as long as the fixing frame 206 can be installed on the barrel portion 100.

[0107] In this embodiment, further, Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the second electrical connection device 400 includes a connecting frame 404 and a second electrical connection member 402. After the barrel assembly is assembled, the connecting frame 404 abuts against the assembly inclined surface 216 of the second end 214 of the mounting frame 208, thereby driving the mounting frame 208 to rotate relative to the fixing frame 206; the second electrical connection member 402 is arranged on the connecting frame 404 and contacts the second electrical connection member 402 to ensure signal transmission and power supply.

[0108] In this embodiment, further, Fig.10 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the transmission device 300 includes a pulley 302 and a main shaft.

Specifically, the connecting frame 404 is a connecting ring, and the connecting ring is connected to the pulley 302. The center of the connecting ring, the center of the pulley 302 and the center of the main shaft are concentrically arranged. In addition, the interior of the main shaft is hollow, and the barrel assembly also includes a transmission line. The transmission line is arranged inside the main shaft, and the end of the transmission line is led out of the outside of the main shaft and connected to the second electrical connector 402 of the second electrical connection device 400.

[0109] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1 As shown, the first electrical connection device 200 , the transmission device 300 and the second electrical connection device 400 are arranged at the bottom of the barrel portion 100 . When the barrel assembly is assembled, the first electrical connection device 200 and the second electrical connection device 400 are located between the transmission device 300 and the barrel portion 100 .

[0112] Furthermore, the balancing device includes a balancing ring, a weight block and a driving member. The balancing ring is arranged on the washing drum, and can be sleeved on the washing drum; the weight block is arranged inside the balancing ring, and the weight block can move inside the balancing ring to adjust the gravity distribution of the washing drum; the driving member is connected to the first electrical connector 204, and then connected to the driving device through the cooperation of the first electrical connector 204 and the second electrical connector 402. The driving member can drive the weight block under the control of the control device to adjust the distribution of the weight block in the balancing ring to solve the problem of eccentricity of the washing drum.

[0113] In a specific embodiment, in the related art, the washing tub has a balancing device with an active balancing function, and a gravity block is arranged inside the balancing ring of the balancing device, and the gravity block can be driven by a driving member, thereby achieving the purpose of actively adjusting the eccentricity in the washing tub. The current solution is to power and communicate with the driving member inside the balancing ring by wireless transmission, but due to the high cost of wireless charging and poor structural reliability, the solution is now optimized to wired charging.

[0114] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the present invention proposes a barrel assembly, which can realize power supply and communication of the balancing device by wired transmission. The barrel assembly includes a barrel housing 100, a first electrical connection device 200, a transmission device 300 and a second electrical connection device 400.

[0115] In a specific embodiment, Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the first electrical connection device 200 includes a first electrical connection member 204, a fixing frame 206, a mounting frame 208, an elastic member 210, a rotating shaft 218, etc. Among them, the matching hole of the elastic member 210 is aligned with the mounting hole on the fixing frame 206 and the through hole on the mounting frame 208, and then the rotating shaft 218 is sequentially passed through the above-mentioned holes to complete the installation of the first electrical connection device 200. After the first electrical connection device 200 is assembled, the first electrical connection device 200 is installed on the barrel-mounted portion 100 by matching the first assembly portion 220 on the fixing frame 206 with the second assembly portion 102 on the barrel-mounted portion 100. The first electrical connection member 204 on the first electrical connection device 200 is respectively connected to four power supply and signal transmission lines fixed on the barrel-mounted portion 100. Specifically, the elastic member 210 can be a torsion spring, and the first electrical connection member 204 can be a brush wire.

[0116] In a specific embodiment, Figure 8 , Fig. 9 , Fig.10 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, the transmission device 300 includes a pulley 302, and the second electrical connection device 400 includes a second electrical connection member 402 and a connecting frame 404. Among them, the second electrical connection member 402 is made of a metal conductive material and is fixed on the connecting frame 404. The connecting frame 404 is matched with a connecting hole 406 on the pulley 302 on the pulley 302 through a fastener 408 such as a screw, so that the connecting frame 404 is fixed on the pulley 302. After the transmission device 300 is assembled, the main shaft matching hole on the pulley 302 is matched with the corresponding position of the main shaft, and bolts are used to fasten, and the pulley 302 and the main shaft are installed as a whole, and the pulley 302 and the main shaft are relatively stationary. The second electrical connection member 402 on the connecting frame 404 is respectively connected to the power supply and signal transmission lines coming out of the center hole of the main shaft. Specifically, the second electrical connection member 402 can be a conductive ring.

[0117] In a specific embodiment, Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first electrical connection device 200 includes an elastic member 210. When the transmission device 300 and the second electrical connection device 400 are not installed on the barrel portion 100, under the action of the elastic member 210, the first electrical connection member 204 on the mounting frame 208 remains away from the second electrical connection member 402. During the installation of the transmission device 300, the corresponding position on the connecting frame 404 on the transmission device 300 contacts the assembly bevel 216 on the mounting frame 208. During the installation of the transmission device 300, the second end 214 of the connecting frame 404 close to the assembly bevel 216 will be pushed by the transmission device 300 in a direction away from the center of the transmission device 300; at the same time, the first electrical connection member 204 arranged at the first end 212 of the mounting frame 208 will approach the center position of the transmission device 300. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, after the transmission device 300 is installed in place, the first electrical connector 204 will contact the second electrical connector 402 on the transmission device 300 to complete the connection. In particular, the elastic member 210 provides pre-pressure for the first electrical connector 204 and the second electrical connector 402 to contact, preventing the first electrical connector 204 from not contacting the second electrical connector 402 due to vibration or wear during operation.

[0118] Therefore, the barrel assembly proposed in the present invention realizes stable power supply and signal transmission between the fixed part (barrel housing 100) and the rotating part (washing barrel) through wired transmission of the first electrical connector 204 in contact with the second electrical connector 402, which can greatly reduce the cost of the barrel assembly.

[0119] In addition, after the assembly of the cylinder assembly is completed, the second electrical connection device 400 squeezes the second end 214 of the fixing frame 206, and the mounting frame 208 rotates so that the first electrical connection member 204 arranged at the first end 212 moves toward the second electrical connection member 402; during the rotation of the mounting frame 208, the elastic member 210 can provide a pre-tightening force for the first end 212, so that there is a certain distance between the first electrical connection member 204 and the second electrical connection member 402, so as to facilitate the assembly of the entire cylinder assembly.

[0120] In a specific embodiment, during the use of a washing machine or other clothing processing device, the washing drum may become eccentric due to the uneven distribution of clothing in the washing drum. Therefore, the clothing processing device proposed in the present invention is provided with a balancing device on the washing drum; the balancing device includes a balancing ring, a gravity block, and a driving member. One or more balancing rings may be provided, and are arranged on the washing drum to ensure that the balancing ring extends along the circumference of the washing drum, the gravity block and the driving member are arranged inside the balancing ring, and the driving member can be used to drive the gravity block to move in the balancing ring, thereby adjusting the distribution of the gravity block in the circumference of the washing drum to solve the eccentricity problem of the washing drum.

[0121] In addition, the second electrical connection member 402 of the second electrical connection device 400 is connected to the driving member of the balancing device through a transmission line coming out of the center hole of the main shaft, and the first electrical connection member 204 of the first electrical connection device 200 is electrically connected to the control device of the clothing processing equipment, thereby ensuring the electrical connection between the control device and the driving member.

[0122] Furthermore, a detection device may be provided on the washing drum, and the detection device may be used to detect the eccentricity of the washing drum; the control device is electrically connected to the detection device, and may control the operation of the balancing device according to the detection result to be detected by the detection device, so that the driving member drives the gravity block to move in the balancing ring to adjust the circumferential gravity distribution of the washing drum, thereby achieving the effect of correcting the eccentricity.

[0123] By wired contact between the first electrical connector 204 and the second electrical connector 402, stable power supply and signal transmission between the fixed part (drum housing 100) and the rotating part (washing drum) can be achieved, which can greatly reduce the cost of the drum assembly.

[0124] And, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the elastic member 210 applies a certain pre-tightening force to the first electrical connector 204 to ensure that the first electrical connector 204 is always in contact with the second electrical connector 402, that is, even when the second electrical connector 402 rotates with the transmission device 300, the first electrical connector 204 and the second electrical connector 402 can always be in contact, thereby ensuring the reliability of signal transmission and the reliability of power supply.
