DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with embodiments, but is not limited to the contents of the description.
[0027] As shown in Figures 1 to 3 , the present application discloses a flow channel plate, comprising: a plate body 1, the plate body 1 is provided with a washing water supply channel 2 and a spraying water supply channel 3; the plate body 1 is further provided with a bypass flow channel 4, the washing water supply channel 2 and the spraying water supply channel 3 are communicated through the bypass flow channel 4; the bypass flow channel 4 has a first state of communicating the washing water supply channel 2 and the spraying water supply channel 3 and a second state of disconnecting the washing water supply channel 2 and the spraying water supply channel 3. The washing liquid in the washing water supply channel 2 for washing clothes is introduced into the spraying water supply channel 3 by the bypass flow channel 4, so that the washing liquid sprays and washes the glass observation window, which can effectively clean stubborn stains on the glass bowl, and the residual washing liquid and treated water stains and stains are removed by supplying clean water through the spraying water supply channel 3, thereby ensuring the cleaning of the glass observation window and improving the user experience. Moreover, the spraying structure communicated with the spraying water supply channel 3 can increase the mixing degree of water and washing liquid, avoiding damage to clothes caused by uneven distribution of washing liquid.
[0028] As an embodiment, the flow channel plate further comprises an on-off mechanism, the on-off mechanism is arranged in the bypass flow channel 4, and when the bypass flow channel 4 is in the first state, the on-off mechanism is in a disconnected state; when the bypass flow channel 4 is in the second state, the on-off mechanism is in a connected state. The on-off mechanism can be switched according to the preset degree of the washing machine, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the washing machine.
[0029] As another embodiment, the flow channel plate further comprises a check structure arranged in the bypass flow channel 4, and the check structure is capable of preventing the liquid in the spray water supply channel 3 from flowing to the washing water supply channel 2 so as to make the bypass flow channel 4 in the second state. When there is water flow in the washing water supply channel 2, the water flow can flow to the spray water supply channel 3 through the check structure, at this time, the bypass flow channel 4 is in the first state, and when there is water flow in the spray water supply channel 3, the water flow cannot flow to the washing water supply channel 2 under the action of the check structure, thereby avoiding the water supply from the spray water supply channel 3 to the inside of the washing machine and affecting the washing and dehydration effect of the washing machine.
