[0057] In the description of the present application, it should be noted that unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "connecting", "connecting" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0058] The present application will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments.

[0059] Example One

[0060] As Figures 1-2 shown, the present embodiment provides a disc seat structure of a washing machine, comprising:

[0061] a disc seat body 1;

[0062] a liquid storage box 3 fixedly arranged in the disc seat body 1, used for storing a laundry treatment agent;

[0063] The water box 2 is arranged in the drawer body 1 in a pullable manner, and includes a liquid collecting cavity 201 for receiving a laundry treatment agent;

[0064] The liquid collecting cavity 201 is in communication with the liquid storage box 3 through a liquid guide structure, and is used to guide the laundry treatment agent received in the liquid collecting cavity 201 to the liquid storage box 3 for storage.

[0065] In the above scheme, when a user wants to add a laundry treatment agent to the liquid storage box 3, the water box 2 can be pulled out, the laundry treatment agent is directly poured into the liquid collecting cavity 201 of the water box 2, and then is transferred to the liquid storage box 3 through the liquid collecting cavity 201 of the water box 2 for storage, so that the laundry treatment agent is conveniently and quickly added. When the detergent is added, the water box 2 can be pulled out, and the liquid storage box 3 is not moved, so that the load of the drawer water box 2 is reduced, and the phenomenon that the drawer is easily deformed and damaged due to the large load in the process of frequent pulling of the existing washing machine liquid storage box 3 or water box 2 is effectively avoided. After the addition of the laundry treatment agent is completed, the water box 2 is directly pushed into the drawer body 1, and the appearance structure of the drawer is not damaged, so that the overall appearance of the drawer is ensured.

[0066] Since the weight of the laundry treatment agent is entirely borne by the liquid storage box 3, the liquid storage box 3 is relatively heavy, and therefore, the liquid storage box 3 is designed to be fixedly arranged and cannot move with the pulling of the drawer-type water box 2, which breaks the traditional washing machine in which the liquid storage box 3 is arranged to be pullable or is arranged to be pulled with the water box 2, and effectively avoids the phenomenon that the drawer-type liquid storage box 3 or water box 2 is deformed and damaged due to the large load for a long time, and prolongs the service life of the entire automatic feeding module.

[0067] Further, the liquid guide structure includes a liquid guide hose 31 connected between the liquid collecting cavity 201 and the liquid storage box 3 in a stretchable manner. The liquid guide hose 31 is an elastic hose with certain contraction performance, and is a rubber stretch hose or a stretchable chemical composite hose, which can be stretched or contracted with the pulling of the water box 2, so as to realize the connection between the immovable liquid storage box 3 and the movable liquid collecting cavity 201.

[0068] Preferably, the liquid guide hose 31 is a rubber stretch hose, and the rubber stretch hose has good stretch performance and low cost.

[0069] Further, in the embodiment, the liquid outlet of the liquid collecting cavity 201 is arranged to be higher than the liquid inlet of the liquid storage box 3; through the design that the liquid outlet of the liquid collecting cavity 201 is arranged to be higher than the liquid inlet of the liquid storage box 3, the laundry treatment agent in the liquid collecting cavity 201 can naturally flow into the liquid storage box 3 under the action of gravity, and the phenomenon of backflow does not occur.

[0070] Preferably, the liquid collecting cavity 201 comprises a bottom wall and a side wall connected to the periphery of the bottom wall, and the liquid outlet is located at the bottom wall or the bottom of the side wall of the liquid collecting cavity 201. Through the above design, the laundry treatment agent received in the liquid collecting cavity 201 can be completely discharged, and the laundry treatment agent in the liquid collecting cavity 201 cannot be discharged into the liquid storage box 3 due to the high position of the liquid outlet, and is accumulated in the liquid collecting cavity 201, causing waste of the laundry treatment agent.

[0071] Further, the liquid collecting cavity 201 in the present application is a chamber structure with an open top, which can be formed in the water box 2 by injection molding. The liquid collecting cavity 201 adopts a chamber structure with an open top, and the top opening is relatively large, which facilitates the user to add the laundry treatment agent.

[0072] Further, as shown in the drawings, Figure 1 The water box 2 further comprises a dispensing cavity 202, which is in communication with the liquid outlet of the liquid storage box 3 through a dispensing structure, and is used to suck the laundry treatment agent in the liquid storage box 3 into the dispensing cavity 202.

[0073] In the above scheme, the dispensing structure can be a dispensing pump 4 or a Venturi tube, etc. During dispensing, the laundry treatment agent is sucked from the liquid storage box 3 into the dispensing cavity 202 of the water box 2 through the dispensing structure for dispensing, which can realize quantitative and multiple automatic dispensing.

[0074] The water box provided in the present application not only comprises a dispensing cavity but also comprises a liquid collecting cavity, which can not only realize the dispensing of the laundry treatment agent but also can be used as a transfer cavity to receive and guide the laundry treatment agent to the liquid storage box, so that one thing has multiple uses, the function of the water box is enriched, and there is no need to additionally set a liquid collecting structure for receiving the laundry treatment agent, thereby simplifying the structure of the washing machine.

[0075] The dispensing cavity 202 in the present application is in communication with the water source and the washing tub of the washing machine, respectively, and the laundry treatment agent in the liquid storage box 3 is sucked into the dispensing cavity 202 through the dispensing structure. The laundry treatment agent sucked into the dispensing cavity 202 can be dispensed into the washing tub along with the water of the washing machine, thereby realizing the automatic dispensing of the laundry treatment agent.

[0076] Preferably, the dispensing cavity 202 and the liquid collecting cavity 201 are independently arranged, for example, two cavities can be separated by a partition plate in the water box 2 to form the liquid collecting cavity 201 and the dispensing cavity 202, and the liquid collecting cavity 201 and the dispensing cavity 202 can be independent of each other and not in communication with each other, so as to avoid the laundry treatment agent injected into the liquid collecting cavity 201 from entering the dispensing cavity 202 to cause misdispensing, or the washing water in the dispensing cavity 202 from entering the liquid collecting cavity 201 to contaminate the laundry treatment agent.

[0077] Further, as shown in the drawings, Figure 1 andFigure 2 As shown in the drawings, in the present application, the dispensing structure comprises:

[0078] The dispensing hose 41 is telescopically connected between the liquid outlet of the liquid storage box 3 and the liquid inlet of the dispensing cavity 202.

[0079] The dispensing pump 4 is arranged on the dispensing hose 41 and used to suck the laundry treatment agent in the liquid storage box 3 into the dispensing cavity 202 through the dispensing hose 41 for dispensing.

[0080] In the above scheme, the dispensing hose 41 is an elastic hose with certain telescopic performance, which is a rubber telescopic hose or a telescopic chemical composite hose and can be stretched or contracted with the pulling of the water box 2 to realize the connection between the immovable liquid storage box 3 and the movable dispensing cavity 202.

[0081] Preferably, the dispensing hose 41 is a rubber telescopic hose, which has good telescopic performance and low cost.

[0082] In the present application, the liquid collecting cavity 201 of the water box 2 and the liquid inlet of the liquid storage box 3 and the liquid outlet of the liquid storage box 3 and the dispensing cavity 202 are connected through the telescopic elastic hose, which has simple connection mode, low cost and easy use and promotion.

[0083] In the present embodiment, the dispensing pump 4 is connected with the control unit of the washing machine, and when the laundry treatment program is executed, the control unit controls the dispensing pump 4 to act according to the washing requirement, so as to suck the laundry treatment agent in the liquid storage box 3 into the dispensing cavity 202 of the water box 2 to realize automatic dispensing.

[0084] In the present embodiment, the laundry treatment agent includes liquid laundry treatment agents such as detergent, softener, fragrance enhancer and softening agent. Since the demand of detergent is large, preferably, the liquid storage box 3 is used to store the detergent.

[0085] As to other liquid laundry treatment agents such as softener, fragrance enhancer and softening agent, they can be directly poured into the dispensing cavity 202 for single dispensing; or, storage cavities for separately storing small amount of softener, fragrance enhancer and softening agent are formed in the water box 2 to realize multiple dispensing.

[0086] Further, as shown in the drawings, Figure 1 and Figure 2 the middle of the disc seat body 1 is provided with a laundry dispensing opening 101; the water box 2 is telescopically arranged at the rear side of the disc seat body 1, in the state that the water box 2 is pulled out, the liquid collecting cavity 201 is used to receive the detergent; in the state that the water box 2 is pushed back, the outer side wall of the water box 2 constitutes part of the side wall of the laundry dispensing opening 101.

[0087] Preferably, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, the clothes feeding port 101 is designed as a non-circular shape, and the disc seat body 1 is in a ring shape structure, and the clothes feeding port 101 is formed by the inner ring edge of the disc seat body 1 being bent downward and extending.

[0088] Specifically, as Figure 2 shown, the clothes feeding port 101 includes a flat back side wall 101a near the back side of the disc seat body 1 and an arc-shaped side wall connected at both ends of the flat back side wall 101a, forming a "D" shape structure. The flat back side wall 101a is provided with an opening for pulling out the water box 2, and the water box 2 can be pulled out through the opening. When the water box 2 is pushed back into the disc seat, the outer side wall of the water box 2 blocks the opening to form part of the flat back side wall 101a.

[0089] In the above scheme, the clothes feeding port 101 is designed in the above "D" shape structure, which is more suitable for the special structure of the drawer type water box 2 and the liquid storage box 3 in this application. Thus, the outer side wall of the water box 2 is designed as a flat structure, which reduces the processing difficulty of the water box 2 and facilitates use and promotion compared with the circular or oval shape of the clothes feeding port 101.

[0090] Further, in this application, the disc seat body 1 has a lower opening ring-shaped accommodating groove for accommodating the water box 2 and the liquid storage box 3 and the like. The liquid storage box 3 can be fixedly arranged at the back side of the disc seat body 1, or fixedly arranged at the left side or right side of the disc seat body 1.

[0091] Preferably, the liquid storage box 3 is in a long strip box shape structure, arranged at the left side or right side of the disc seat body 1 along the front-rear direction of the disc seat body 1. Through the above design, it can not only avoid the crowding between the liquid storage box arranged at the back side of the disc seat and the water box, which limits the volume of the liquid storage box and affects the storage capacity, but also fully utilizes the space on both sides of the disc seat body, improving the space utilization rate of the disc seat body.

[0092] In another embodiment, the liquid collecting cavity 201 and the feeding cavity 202 are integrally arranged, and only one liquid collecting cavity 201 is provided without a separate feeding cavity 202. The liquid collecting cavity 201 is used for receiving the clothes treatment agent and also as a feeding cavity for feeding the clothes treatment agent, and no additional separate feeding cavity is provided. A bidirectional pump is arranged between the liquid collecting cavity 201 and the liquid storage box 3 to realize the pumping in and out of the clothes treatment agent and bidirectional pumping, simplifying the structure.

[0093] Example Two

[0094] In combination with Figure 1 , Figure 2As shown, the present embodiment is a variant of the above-mentioned embodiment one. In the present embodiment, the delivery cavity 202 and the liquid collecting cavity 201 are designed to be in communication with each other, mainly to solve the problem that the laundry treatment agent poured by the user into the water box 2 adheres to the inner wall of the liquid collecting cavity 201, which is difficult to clean and causes waste of the laundry treatment agent and affects the cleaning and sanitation of the washing machine.

[0095] In the present embodiment, the delivery cavity 202 and the liquid collecting cavity 201 are in communication with each other, and the cleaning water in the delivery cavity 202 can enter the liquid collecting cavity 201 to clean the liquid collecting cavity 201, so as to avoid the problem that the laundry treatment agent adheres to the side wall of the liquid collecting cavity 201, which is difficult to clean and affects the cleaning and sanitation.

[0096] Specifically, the delivery cavity 202 and the liquid collecting cavity 201 are formed by arranging a partition plate in the water box 2, a first communication opening is arranged on the partition plate between the delivery cavity 202 and the liquid collecting cavity 201, and a first valve body that can be opened and closed is arranged at the first communication opening. The first valve body seals the first communication opening in the normal state to avoid the liquid in the liquid collecting cavity 201 and the delivery cavity 202 from flowing into each other.

[0097] Further, a second communication opening that is in communication with the washing tub is arranged on the liquid collecting cavity 201, and a second valve body that can be opened and closed is arranged at the second communication opening. The second valve body seals the second communication opening in the normal state to avoid the laundry treatment agent from overflowing into the washing tub through the second communication opening when the user adds the laundry treatment agent into the liquid collecting cavity 201.

[0098] Further, a third valve body that can be opened and closed is arranged at the liquid outlet of the liquid collecting cavity 201. The third valve body is in the open state in the normal state to realize the communication between the liquid collecting cavity 201 and the liquid storage box 3, so as to facilitate the user to add the laundry treatment agent at any time, and the liquid outlet is closed when the liquid collecting cavity 201 is cleaned.

[0099] When the liquid collecting cavity 201 is cleaned periodically, the third valve body at the liquid outlet of the liquid collecting cavity 201 is closed first to avoid the cleaning water in the liquid collecting cavity 201 from entering the liquid storage box 3 through the liquid outlet and contaminating the laundry treatment agent in the liquid storage box 3. Then, the first valve body at the first communication opening is opened, the cleaning water enters the liquid collecting cavity 201 through the delivery cavity 202 and the first communication opening to clean the liquid collecting cavity 201. At the same time, the second valve body at the second communication opening is opened, so that the flushing water can be discharged to the washing tub through the second communication opening, which realizes the full recovery and utilization of the residual laundry treatment agent in the liquid collecting cavity 201 and avoids waste.

[0100] Example Three

[0101] In combination Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, the embodiment is based on Embodiment One, and the liquid guiding structure and the dropping structure in Embodiment One are further optimized and defined.

[0102] Specifically, in the embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the liquid guiding structure comprises:

[0103] a first sealing valve 2011, which automatically seals the liquid outlet of the liquid collecting cavity 201 when the water box body is pushed into the disc seat (see Figure 4 );

[0104] a first liquid guiding plug-in unit 2012, which is fixedly arranged in the disc seat body 1, one end of which is connected with the liquid inlet of the liquid storage box 3, and the other end of which pushes open the first sealing valve 2011 when the water box 2 is pulled out, thereby guiding the liquid storage box 3 and the liquid collecting cavity 201 (see Figure 3 )。

[0105] In the above scheme, the first liquid guiding plug-in unit 2012 has a liquid guiding channel and a plug-in part which can plug in and push open the first sealing valve 2011, and when the plug-in part pushes open the first sealing valve 2011, the liquid storage box 3 and the liquid collecting cavity 201 can be guided.

[0106] Specifically, the side wall of the liquid collecting cavity 201 near the liquid storage box 3 is provided with a liquid outlet, and an L-shaped communication pipe is fixedly arranged at the liquid outlet, one end of the L-shaped communication pipe is connected with the liquid outlet of the liquid storage box 3, and the other end of the L-shaped communication pipe extends towards the pulling direction of the water box 2 and is internally provided with the first sealing valve 2011.

[0107] In an embodiment, the first sealing valve 2011 can be a sealing valve composed of a spring, a valve core and the like. The first liquid guiding plug-in unit 2012 comprises an L-shaped plug-in pipe which is fixedly arranged, one end of the L-shaped plug-in pipe is connected with the liquid storage box 3, and the other end of the L-shaped plug-in pipe extends towards the pushing direction of the water box 2 and corresponds to the position of the communication pipe, the outer diameter of the plug-in pipe is smaller than the inner diameter of the communication pipe, when the water box 2 is pulled out, the plug-in pipe extends into and pushes open the first sealing valve 2011 in the communication pipe, thereby guiding the liquid storage box 3 and the liquid collecting cavity 201.

[0108] As shown in Figure 3 , when the water box 2 is pulled out, the first liquid guiding plug-in unit 2012 pushes open the first sealing valve 2011 of the liquid collecting cavity 201, thereby guiding the liquid storage box 3 and the liquid collecting cavity 201, and the clothes treatment agent poured by the user into the liquid collecting cavity 201 enters the liquid storage box 3 through the liquid outlet on the side of the liquid collecting cavity 201, the communication pipe and the liquid guiding channel in the first liquid guiding plug-in unit 2012.

[0109] Further, in the embodiment, the water box 2 comprises:

[0110] a water box seat fixedly arranged in the disc seat body 1;

[0111] a water box body arranged in the water box seat in a pullable manner, the first liquid guide plug-in unit 2012 comprising a liquid guide plug-in pipe fixedly arranged on the water box seat, the liquid guide plug-in pipe being an L-shaped plug-in pipe.

[0112] When the water box body is pushed into the water box seat, the plug-in part at the end of the liquid guide plug-in pipe pushes open the first sealing valve 2011, and the liquid collection cavity 201 is communicated with the liquid storage box 3.

[0113] Preferably, the liquid guide structure further comprises the liquid guide hose 31 in Embodiment One, which is connected between the liquid outlet end of the liquid guide plug-in pipe and the liquid inlet of the liquid storage box 3.

[0114] Of course, the liquid guide plug-in pipe and the liquid storage box 3 can also be connected without a hose, preferably, the liquid guide plug-in pipe and the liquid storage box 3 are connected through the liquid guide hose 31, and since the space in the disc seat body 1 is limited, using a hose is more convenient for the arrangement of the water box 2 and the liquid storage box 3.

[0115] In the embodiment, the dispensing structure also adopts a plug-in structure to realize the communication between the dispensing cavity 202 and the liquid storage box 3.

[0116] Specifically, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the dispensing structure comprises:

[0117] a second sealing valve 2021, which automatically seals the liquid inlet of the dispensing cavity 202 when the water box body is pulled out of the disc seat (see Figure 3 );

[0118] a second liquid guide plug-in unit 2022 fixedly arranged in the disc seat body 1, one end of which is connected with the liquid outlet of the liquid storage box 3, and the other end thereof pushes open the second sealing valve 2021 when the water box 2 is pushed into the disc seat to realize the communication between the liquid storage box 3 and the dispensing cavity 202 (see Figure 4 ).

[0119] In the above scheme, the second liquid guide plug-in unit 2022 has a liquid guide channel and a plug-in part capable of pushing open the second sealing valve 2021, the plug-in part can push open the second sealing valve 2021 and extend into the dispensing cavity 202, thereby realizing the communication between the liquid storage box 3 and the dispensing cavity 202.

[0120] In one implementation of the above scheme, the second sealing valve 2021 is a valve piece structure sealingly arranged at the liquid inlet of the dispensing cavity 202, and a deformable slit is arranged at the center position of the valve piece structure.

[0121] Specifically, the valve piece structure is made of elastic material, preferably, the valve piece structure is a rubber piece with a slit in the middle.

[0122] Preferably, the slit can be a cross-shaped slit.

[0123] Of course, in the present embodiment, the second sealing valve 2021 is not limited to the valve piece structure, but can also adopt other relatively complex one-way sealing valve structures, such as a one-way valve composed of a valve core and a spring. For cost considerations, preferably, the second sealing valve 2021 in the present embodiment adopts a rubber valve piece structure.

[0124] When the water box 2 is pulled out, the second sealing valve 2021 is out of contact with the second liquid guide plug-in unit 2022, and the valve piece structure can close the slit under the action of its own elasticity to form a self-sealing. When the water box 2 is pushed into the disc seat, the second liquid guide plug-in unit 2022 opens the slit to conduct the liquid storage box 3 and the dispensing cavity 202, and the laundry treatment agent in the liquid storage box 3 can be sucked into the dispensing cavity 202 through the dispensing pump 4 for dispensing.

[0125] In the present embodiment, by adopting the above structure, when the water box 2 is pulled out, the liquid collection cavity 201 and the liquid storage box 3 are automatically conducted, and the dispensing cavity 202 and the liquid storage box 3 are automatically blocked and closed, which facilitates the replenishment of laundry treatment agent into the liquid storage box 3. When the water box 2 is pushed into the disc seat, the liquid collection cavity 201 and the liquid storage box 3 are automatically blocked and closed, and the dispensing cavity 202 and the liquid storage box 3 are automatically conducted, which realizes the purpose of automatic dispensing and has a higher degree of automation.
