TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of washing machines, and particularly relates to a drum washing machine. BACKGROUND
[0002] The drum washing machine comprises a box body, a sleeve set outer drum and an inner drum arranged in the box body, a driving motor for driving the inner drum to rotate; an outer drum opening is formed in the front side of the outer drum, and an inner drum opening matched with the outer drum opening is arranged in the front side of the inner drum, and the outer drum opening is located in front of the inner drum opening; the drum washing machine further comprises an openable and closable door body, and the door body is provided with an observation window which extends into the outer drum opening. The working mode of the drum washing machine is similar to the principle of a rod hammer hitting clothes. During working, the inner drum rotates under the driving of the driving motor. With the rotation of the inner drum, the clothes are repeatedly lifted and dropped in the drum, and finally are washed clean under the joint action of washing powder and water.
[0003] When the existing drum washing machine is dehydrated at high speed, a large amount of water and a small amount of foam splashed out by the soaked clothes will first flow into the outer drum from the inner drum, but the flow of the water and the small amount of foam to the outer drum drain port will be hindered by the rotating air flow, forming a vortex. Due to the inability to be discharged in time, the water and the small amount of foam will be rotated out along the tangent direction between the inner and outer flanges of the drum opening under the action of rotational inertia, splashed onto the observation window, and flowed down along the observation window, causing water splashing phenomenon. On the one hand, it will lead to a decrease in the spin-drying rate, and on the other hand, the water stains and foam left on the observation window will be difficult to clean, and long-term use will cause user complaints. In addition, the gap between the inner and outer flanges of the drum opening is easy to drop long strip tools during installation or use, and it is difficult to take out, which is a difficult-to-ignore hidden danger.
[0004] The current solutions to the water splashing phenomenon to the observation window are as follows: 1. A small amount of rubber pad is filled between the inner and outer drums along the outer drum flange to reduce the gap between the inner and outer drum flanges, thereby reducing the water splashing phenomenon. The increase of the rubber pad will increase the cost, and the rubber has a large deformation amount, poor stability, and is not suitable for larger drum washing machines, such as industrial machines, and has insufficient service life, load bearing weight and stability; 2. The smooth transition radius of the outer drum front flange drum opening in the radial direction is changed, which has little effect on changing the smooth transition radius, and increases the dehydration time, which leads to an increase in the overall washing time, easily causes user complaints, and increases the energy consumption.

[0052] Referring to Figures 1-14 It is an embodiment of the drum washing machine provided by the present application, a drum washing machine 100 comprising: an outer drum 10, an inner drum 20 and a door body 30, the outer drum 10 and the inner drum 20 are arranged in a sleeve, the outer drum 10 has an outer drum body 11 and an outer drum flange 12 arranged at the front end of the outer drum body 11, the inner drum 20 has an inner drum body 21 and an inner drum flange 22 arranged at the front end of the inner drum body 21; the outer drum flange 12 is located in front of the inner drum flange 22, and the outer drum port 121 and the inner drum port 221 are arranged in front and back. The outer drum flange 12 is annular structure, the middle part of the outer drum flange 12 is provided with an outer drum turn-up 122 surrounding the outer drum port 121, the outer drum turn-up 122 extends outward and rearward; the inner drum flange 22 is annular structure, the middle part of the inner drum flange 22 is provided with an inner drum turn-up 222 surrounding the inner drum port 221, the inner drum turn-up 222 extends forward and bends outward. The rear part of the outer drum turn-up 122 is located outside the inner drum turn-up 222, that is, the plane where the rear end of the outer drum turn-up 122 is located is located behind the front end of the inner drum turn-up 222, the outer drum turn-up 122 and the inner drum turn-up 222 have part of overlap in front and back direction, and form a labyrinth structure, so that the water flow moving inward between the outer drum flange 12 and the inner drum flange 22 is blocked by the outer drum turn-up 122 and the inner drum turn-up 222 in the dehydration process, avoiding the water flow from being thrown on the observation window, avoiding the phenomenon of water stringing on the observation window.
[0053] Referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10As shown, the outer cylinder flange 12 has an outer edge 123 connected with the outer cylinder flange 122 and extending outwardly, the first return cavity 126 is formed between the outer cylinder flange 122 and the outer edge 123, and the first outlet 127 is formed between the rear end of the outer cylinder flange 122 and the inner cylinder flange 22. During the dehydration process, the water flowing inwardly between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22 is first blocked by the outer cylinder flange 12, most of which flows into the first return cavity 126, and then flows back between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22. A part of the water flow can flow inwardly from the first outlet 127, and then be blocked by the inner cylinder flange 222 and fall to the inner side of the outer cylinder flange 122 and the first outlet 127. Since the outer cylinder flange 122 extends outwardly and rearwardly, the water flowing to the inner side of the outer cylinder flange 122 will flow back between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22 through the first outlet 127, avoiding the water flow from between the outer cylinder flange 122 and the inner cylinder flange 222.
[0054] Specifically, the size of the outer cylinder flange 122 in the front-rear direction is much larger than the size of the first opening 127, and preferably the ratio of the size of the outer cylinder flange 122 in the front-rear direction to the size of the first opening 127 is 3-7.
[0055] Referring to Figure 9 , Figure 11 and Figure 13 , the inner cylinder flange 22 has an inner edge 223 connected with the inner cylinder flange 222, the inner edge 223 extends radially outwardly along the rear end of the inner cylinder flange 222, and the second return cavity 228 is formed between the inner cylinder flange 222 and the inner edge 223. The second opening 229 is formed between the end of the inner cylinder flange 222 and the inner edge 223, and the plane where the rear end of the outer cylinder flange 122 is located is located on the rear side of the end of the inner cylinder flange 222, or in other words, the plane where the rear end of the outer cylinder flange 122 is located passes through the second opening 229. The water flow radially thrown inwardly from the first opening 127 can all flow into the second return cavity 228; the water flow flowing back from the second return cavity 228 falls to the inner side of the outer cylinder flange 122, and then flows into the first outlet 127; a part of the water flow directly flows into the first outlet 127 and flows back between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22.
[0056] The inner cylinder flange 22 has an inner edge 223 connected with the inner cylinder flange 222, a first inner inclined portion 224 inclined outwardly and rearwardly along the outer side of the inner edge 223, and a parallel surface of the rear end of the outer cylinder flange 122 and parallel to the first inner inclined portion 224 intersecting with the inner cylinder flange 222. The first inner inclined portion 224 is arranged to increase the structural strength of the inner cylinder flange 22, and the rearward extension of the first inner inclined portion 224 increases the distance between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22, reduces the speed of the water flow, and reduces the impact force of the water flow reaching the first outlet 127. The water flow between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22 moves toward the middle, flows outwardly in the radial direction, that is, flows in the tangential direction, and part of the water flow impacts the first inner inclined portion 224 and flows inwardly along the inclined direction of the first inner inclined portion 224. The water flow in the radial direction flows out of the first outlet 127 and into the second return cavity 228, and the water flow flowing inwardly along the inclined direction of the first inner inclined portion 224 impacts the outer side of the inner cylinder flange 222, falls back to the inner side of the outer cylinder flange 122, and then flows into the first outlet 127 without flowing inwardly between the outer cylinder flange 122 and the inner cylinder flange 222. The rear end of the outer cylinder flange 122 is located on the front side of the first inner inclined portion 224.
[0057] The inner cylinder flange 22 further has a second inner inclined portion 225 inclined outwardly and forwardly along the outer side of the first inner inclined portion 224, and an inner extension 226 extending outwardly along the outer side of the second inner inclined portion 225. The second inner inclined portion 225 is arranged to further increase the structural strength of the inner cylinder flange 22, and the volume between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22 is increased, the area inwardly along the second inner inclined portion 225 is increased in the outward-inward direction between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22, the speed of the water flow is reduced, and part of the water flow impacts the first inner inclined portion 224 to further consume energy and then flows inwardly along the second inner inclined portion 225.
[0058] The inner cylinder flange 22 further has a third inner inclined portion 227 extending outwardly and rearwardly from the inner extension 226, and a plurality of grooves 220 are arranged at the circumferential interval between the inner extension 226 and the third inner inclined portion 227. The groove bottom of the groove 220 connects the rear end of the third inner inclined portion 227 and the inner side of the inner extension 226, which is arranged to increase the structural strength of the inner cylinder flange 22. The distance from the outer side of the groove 220 to the outer cylinder flange 12 is greater than the distance from the third inner inclined portion 227 to the outer cylinder flange 12, which is arranged to return the water flow between the outer cylinder flange 12 and the inner cylinder flange 22 to the bottom of the outer cylinder 10.

By arranging the first outer inclined portion 124, the structural strength of the outer drum flange 12 is improved, and the water flow flowing inwardly between the outer drum flange 12 and the inner drum flange 22 is made to flow along the direction of the first outer inclined portion 124, so as to reduce the water flow speed and make most of the water flow impact into the first return cavity 126.
[0060] The outer drum flange 12 has a second outer inclined portion 125 extending outwardly and rearwardly from the outer side of the first outer inclined portion 124, the second outer inclined portion 125 is a slightly inclined inclined surface, and the included angle between the second outer inclined portion 125 and the radial plane is smaller than the included angle between the first outer inclined portion 124 and the radial plane. The included angle between the first outer inclined portion 124 and the radial plane is 40°-50°, and the included angle between the second outer inclined portion 125 and the radial plane is 3°-10°. By arranging the second outer inclined portion 125, the structural strength of the outer drum flange 12 is improved, and the water flow speed flowing inwardly between the outer drum flange 12 and the inner drum flange 22 is reduced. The outer drum flange 12 further has a reinforcing ring 128 located outwardly of the connection between the first outer inclined portion 124 and the second outer inclined portion 125, which is beneficial to increase the structural strength of the outer drum flange 12.
[0061] Referring to Figure 13 As shown, the outer drum flange 122 has a first outer folding portion 1221 rearwardly, a second outer folding portion 1222 connected with the rear end of the first outer folding portion 1221, and an outer extension portion 1223 connected with the second outer folding portion 1223 and extending rearwardly.
