[0040] Currently, garment processing devices typically include a heat pump system, which comprises a compressor, evaporator, and condenser. However, the structural layout of the compressor, evaporator, and condenser in most existing garment processing devices is not optimal, resulting in a large device size and impacting the drying efficiency.

[0041] Figure 1 This is a partial structural diagram of the internal structure of a clothing processing device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure inside the middle box 1 with the top plate removed. Figure 3 yes Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the internal structure of the box 1. Figure 4 yes Figure 3 A structural diagram from another perspective.

[0042] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the clothing processing device provided in this embodiment of the invention mainly includes a box 1, a cylinder 2, a base 3, and a heat pump system.

[0043] The housing 1 typically adopts a rectangular hollow structure, forming the outer shell of the garment handling device. The external shape of the housing 1 can be designed as needed and is not limited here. The internal space of the housing 1 provides installation space for components such as the drum 2, the base 3, and the heat pump system. It should be noted that the garment handling device can be a dryer, a washer-dryer combo, or other garment handling devices.

[0044] The front surface of the box 1 is provided with a clothing loading port (not shown in the figure), which connects to the internal space of the box 1. The front side of the box 1 is provided with a door (not shown in the figure), which is used to open and close the clothing loading port on the front side of the box 1, thereby opening and closing the space inside.

[0045] In some embodiments, the door and the body 1 can be connected by a hinge, and the door can rotate around the axis of the hinge to open and close the door and open and close the clothing loading port.

[0046] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cylindrical body 2 is located inside the box body 1, and a clothing processing chamber 20 is formed inside the cylindrical body 2. A cylinder opening is formed on the front end face of the cylindrical body 2, which is directly opposite the clothing loading port and the box door of the box body 1. After the box door is opened, the clothes can be placed into the clothing processing chamber 20 inside the cylindrical body 2 through the clothing loading port on the front side of the box body 1 and the cylinder opening of the cylindrical body 2 in sequence for drying.

[0047] In some embodiments, the drum 2 is rotatably disposed within the housing 1. During the drying process of clothes in the clothes processing chamber 20, the drum 2 can drive the clothes in the clothes processing chamber 20 to rotate, thereby improving the drying uniformity and drying efficiency of the clothes.

[0048] In some embodiments, the drum 2 includes an outer drum (not shown) and an inner drum (not shown). The outer drum is fixedly installed inside the housing 1, and the inner drum is rotatably disposed inside the outer drum, with the garment processing chamber 20 formed inside the inner drum. This allows the inner drum to rotate the garments relative to the outer drum, improving the uniformity and efficiency of garment drying.

[0049] In some embodiments, the outer drum is configured as a bucket for containing washing water, meaning the internal space of the outer drum can hold washing liquids such as water, detergent, and fabric softener. A washing chamber is formed within the inner drum, which holds the clothes to be washed. When the inner drum rotates relative to the outer drum, it can perform the washing function on the clothes in the washing chamber within the inner drum. It should be noted that the washing chamber can also be used as a garment handling chamber 20, such as in a washer-dryer combo.

[0050] In some embodiments, the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder are arranged coaxially inside and outside, and the front end of the outer cylinder and the front end of the inner cylinder are provided with openings arranged opposite to each other, and the front end opening of the outer cylinder and the front end opening of the inner cylinder are combined to form the cylinder opening of the cylinder 2.

[0051] In some embodiments, a drive device (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the housing 1. The drive device is located outside the cylinder 2, and its output end is connected to the cylinder 2 in a driving connection, or extends into the outer cylinder and is connected to the inner cylinder in a driving connection. Therefore, the drive device can drive the cylinder 2 to rotate, or drive the inner cylinder to rotate relative to the outer cylinder.

[0052] Please see Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the front and rear ends of the cylinder 2 are respectively provided with an air inlet 21 and an air return outlet 22. The air inlet 21 connects to the front end of the clothing processing chamber 20, and the air return outlet 22 connects to the rear end of the clothing processing chamber 20. Drying air can enter the clothing processing chamber 20 through the air inlet 21 to dry the clothes inside the clothing processing chamber 20. During the drying process, the drying air can remove moisture from the clothes, thereby forming hot and humid air. The hot and humid air can be discharged from the clothing processing chamber 20 through the air return outlet 22, thereby realizing the clothing drying function.

[0053] In some embodiments, the air inlet 21 is located on the outer wall of the front end of the outer cylinder, and the air return outlet 22 is located on the outer wall of the rear end of the outer cylinder.

[0054] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the air inlet 21 may also be located on the outer wall of the rear end of the outer cylinder, thereby connecting to the rear end of the clothing processing chamber 20. Meanwhile, the air return outlet 22 may be located on the outer wall of the front end of the outer cylinder, thereby connecting to the front end of the clothing processing chamber 20.

[0055] Figure 5 yes Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the structure of the middle base 3. Figure 6 yes Figure 5 A schematic diagram of the structure with the top cover 35 removed. Figure 7 yes Figure 6 A structural diagram of some of the components.

[0056] Please see Figures 2 to 7 As shown, the base 3 is located inside the housing 1 and above the top of the cylinder 2. The base 3 is used to provide installation space for the heat pump system.

[0057] The heat pump system mainly includes a compressor 41, a condenser 42, and an evaporator 43. The outlet of the compressor 41 is connected to the inlet of the condenser 42, the outlet of the condenser 42 is connected to the inlet of the evaporator 43, and the outlet of the evaporator 43 is connected to the inlet of the compressor 41, thus forming a circulation channel for refrigerant flow within the compressor 41, condenser 42, and evaporator 43. After being compressed by the compressor 41, the refrigerant enters the condenser 42, causing the condenser 42 to heat up, thereby heating the surrounding air. The refrigerant in the condenser 42 flows into the evaporator 43, allowing the evaporator 43 to absorb heat, thereby condensing and cooling the surrounding air.

[0058] Please see Figures 2 to 7 As shown, the base 3 has two chambers 31. The condenser 42 and evaporator 43 of the heat pump system are both located in the two chambers 31. The condenser 42 and evaporator 43 are arranged adjacent to each other, and there is a gap between the condenser 42 and evaporator 43 to avoid direct contact between the condenser 42 and evaporator 43.

[0059] An air inlet 311 and an air outlet 312 are respectively formed on opposite sides of the two chambers 31. The air inlet 311 is located on the side wall of the two chambers 31 near the evaporator 43, and the air outlet 312 is located on the side wall of the two chambers 31 near the condenser 42. The air outlet 312 of the two chambers 31 is connected to the air inlet 21 of the cylinder 2 via a fan 5, and the return air inlet 22 of the cylinder 2 is connected to the air inlet 311 of the two chambers 31 via a return air duct 6. Therefore, the air in the clothing processing chamber 20 can communicate and flow with the air in the two chambers 31, thus forming an airflow circulation within the two chambers 31 and the clothing processing chamber 20.

[0060] Specifically, the humid and hot air in the clothing processing chamber 20 can sequentially enter the interior of the two chambers 31 through the return air inlet 22, the return air duct 6, and the air inlet 311 of the two chambers 31, and come into contact with the evaporator 43 in the two chambers 31. The evaporator 43 condenses and dehumidifies the humid and hot air, removing moisture from the air and lowering the temperature of the air, thus forming dry and cold air. The dry and cold air then flows towards the condenser 42 and the air outlet 312 of the two chambers 31, comes into contact with the condenser 42 in the two chambers 31, and heats the dry and cold air to form dry and hot air. This hot air is then sequentially introduced into the clothing processing chamber 20 through the air outlet 312 of the two chambers 31, the fan 5, and the air inlet 21 to dry the clothes. The hot and humid air generated by drying clothes in the clothes processing chamber 20 enters the two chambers 31 through the return air vent 22, return air duct 6, and air inlet 311. This cycle repeats until the program stops or the clothes in the clothes processing chamber 20 are dried, thus achieving the clothes drying function.

[0061] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the return air duct 6 is made of shock-absorbing and heat-insulating materials, such as rubber. The use of shock-absorbing materials in the return air duct 6 prevents vibrations generated by the cylinder 2 from being transmitted upwards to the base 3, and subsequently to the heat pump system on the base 3. The use of heat-insulating materials in the return air duct 6 prevents excessively high internal air temperatures from being transmitted through the return air duct 6 to surrounding electrical components or heat-sensitive devices, thus preventing damage.

[0062] In some embodiments, the return air duct 6 can be connected by a corrugated pipe or by connecting a corrugated pipe to other pipes.

[0063] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the fan 5 provides airflow so that air from the two chambers 31 can enter the garment processing chamber 20. The suction end of the fan 5 is directly connected to the air outlet 312 of the two chambers 31, and the air outlet of the fan 5 is connected to the air inlet 21 of the cylinder 2. Therefore, when the fan 5 is turned on, under the action of the airflow, air from the two chambers 31 can enter the fan 5 through the air outlet 312, and then enter the garment processing chamber 20 through the air inlet 21. Air from the garment processing chamber 20 can then enter the return air duct 6 through the return air inlet 22, and return to the two chambers 31 through the air inlet 311, thereby achieving air circulation between the two chambers 31 and the garment processing chamber 20.

[0064] Please see Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, a first pipe connector 319 is formed on the outer side of the air outlet 312, and the air outlet 312 is formed inside the first pipe connector 319. The first pipe connector 319 protrudes from the outer side wall of the base 3 and is used to connect with the air inlet end of the fan 5.

[0065] In some embodiments, the outer end face of the first pipe connector 319 is arranged at an angle, such that the outer port of the first pipe connector 319 faces upward and toward the side away from the cylinder 2. When the air inlet end of the fan 5 is connected to the first pipe connector 319, the air inlet end of the fan 5 can be arranged at an angle, so that the fan 5 as a whole can face the cylinder 2 at an angle, and the fan 5 can be located at intervals on one side of the top area of ​​the cylinder 2, so as to make full use of the space above the cylinder 2, and maintain a certain gap between the fan 5 and the inner wall of the housing 1 and the outer wall of the cylinder 2.

[0066] Please see Figures 2 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the heat pump system further includes a first connecting pipe 44 and a second connecting pipe 45. One end of the first connecting pipe 44 is connected to the outlet of the compressor 41, and the other end of the first connecting pipe 44 extends into the two chambers 31 and is connected to the inlet of the condenser 42, thereby allowing the refrigerant in the compressor 41 to enter the condenser 42 through the first connecting pipe 44. One end of the second connecting pipe 45 is connected to the inlet of the compressor 41, and the other end of the second connecting pipe 45 extends into the two chambers 31 and is connected to the outlet of the evaporator 43, thereby allowing the refrigerant in the evaporator 43 to return to the compressor 41 for recompression through the second connecting pipe 45.

[0067] In some embodiments, the compressor 41 is located in the bottom region of the housing 1. The first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 are arranged in parallel and extend upward from the bottom region of the housing 1 to the top region of the housing 1, respectively. The first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 are arranged around the outer periphery of the cylinder 2 to prevent the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 from contacting the cylinder 2. The bottom ends of the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 are respectively connected to the compressor 41, and the top ends of the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 extend into the two chambers 31, respectively.

[0068] In some embodiments, the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 are arranged in parallel and do not intersect each other.

[0069] In some embodiments, both the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 can be made of copper tubing. Copper tubing has good ductility, which facilitates bending of the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45, making installation easier. It should be noted that in other embodiments, the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 can also be made of other materials.

[0070] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the heat pump system further includes a dryer filter 46 and a throttling device 47, which are disposed between the outlet of the condenser 42 and the inlet of the evaporator 43. Specifically, the outlet of the condenser 42 is connected to one end of the dryer filter 46 via a pipe, the other end of the dryer filter 46 is connected to one end of the throttling device 47, and the other end of the throttling device 47 is connected to the inlet of the evaporator 43. Therefore, the refrigerant in the condenser 42 can be dried and filtered by the dryer filter 46, and then throttled and depressurized by the throttling device 47 before entering the evaporator 43 to evaporate and absorb heat, thereby achieving condensation and dehumidification of the surrounding air by the evaporator 43.

[0071] In some embodiments, the condenser 42 and evaporator 43 are arranged side-by-side inside the two chambers 31. The inlets and outlets of the condenser 42 and evaporator 43 are located at the same end, with the inlet and outlet ends of the condenser 42 and evaporator 43 located at the first end of the two chambers 31, and the other ends of the condenser 42 and evaporator 43 located at the second end of the two chambers 31. Therefore, the dryer filter 46 and the throttle valve 47 can be arranged close to the ends of the condenser 42 and evaporator 43, and at the first end of the two chambers 31. Furthermore, the tips of the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45 can extend parallel into the first end of the two chambers 31, connecting to the ends of the condenser 42 and evaporator 43 respectively, facilitating the piping arrangement and installation of the first connecting pipe 44 and the second connecting pipe 45.

[0073] Please see Figures 5 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a condensation groove 313 is provided on the bottom surface of the two chambers 31, and the condensation groove 313 is located directly below the evaporator 43. There is a gap between the bottom of the evaporator 43 and the bottom surface of the condensation groove 313. Therefore, when air enters the two chambers 31 through the air inlet 311 and comes into contact with the evaporator 43 and condenses, the moisture in the air can form condensate on the surface of the evaporator 43. The condensate can drip into the condensation groove 313 below the evaporator 43 under the action of gravity, and then be collected through the condensation groove 313 for easy discharge to the outside of the base 3.

[0074] Please see Figures 8 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a drain outlet 314 is provided on the bottom surface of the condensation tank 313. The drain outlet 314 is connected to the outside of the base 3 and is used to drain the water in the condensation tank 313 to the outside of the base 3.

[0075] In some embodiments, the outlet 314 is located at one end of the condensation tank 313, the outlet 314 is located at the lowest point of the condensation tank 313, and a slope surface 315 is formed near the outlet 314 in the condensation tank 313. The slope surface 315 is used to guide the water in the condensation tank 313 into the outlet 314, and then the water is discharged to the outside of the base 3 through the outlet 314.

[0076] Please see Figures 5 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the outlet 314 and the ramp 315 are located at the first end of the two chambers 31, while the dryer filter 46 and the throttle 47 are both located in the upper space of the ramp 315 and the outlet 314, thereby improving the space utilization efficiency inside the two chambers 31.

[0077] Please see Figures 2 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a drain pipe 32 is externally connected to the base 3. One end of the drain pipe 32 is connected to the outlet 314, and the other end is connected to the inside of the cylinder 2. Therefore, the condensate in the condensation tank 313 can be discharged into the inside of the cylinder 2 through the outlet 314 and the drain pipe 32 without the need for an additional drainage pump, and can be discharged to the outside of the box 1 through the drain outlet inside the cylinder 2.

[0078] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the other end of the discharge pipe 32 can also be directly connected to the outside of the housing 1, thereby directly discharging the condensate in the condensation tank 313 to the outside of the housing 1.

[0079] Please see Figures 7 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a raised rib 316 is provided on the surface of the condensation tank 313, and the bottom of the evaporator 43 can be supported on the raised rib 316, thereby maintaining a sufficient distance between the bottom surface of the evaporator 43 and the bottom surface of the condensation tank 313.

[0080] In some embodiments, the ribs 316 are elongated, and their extending direction is consistent with that of the condensation tank 313. Multiple ribs 316 are provided, and they are arranged at intervals. Therefore, when condensate from the surface of the evaporator 43 drips into the condensation tank 313, the condensate in the condensation tank 313 can flow along the gaps between the ribs 316 towards the outlet 314.

[0081] In some embodiments, a separating rib 317 is provided on the bottom surface of the two chambers 31, and the separating rib 317 is located at the bottom of the space between the evaporator 43 and the condenser 42. A condensation tank 313 is formed on the side of the separating rib 317 away from the condenser 42. The separating rib 317 can prevent condensate in the condensation tank 313 from flowing into the area where the condenser 42 is located.

[0082] Please see Figures 5 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a guide air duct 33 is formed on the base 3. The guide air duct 33 is located on the side of the two chambers 31 closest to the air inlet 311, that is, on the side of the two chambers 31 furthest from the air outlet 312. The first end of the guide air duct 33 is directly connected to the air inlet 311, and the second end of the guide air duct 33 is connected to the return air duct 6, and then connected to the return air outlet 22 through the return air duct 6. Therefore, the humid and hot air in the clothing processing chamber 20 can be introduced into the guide air duct 33 through the return air duct 6, and then smoothly introduced into the two chambers 31 through the guide air duct 33 and the air inlet 311.

[0083] In some embodiments, the width of the air duct 33 gradually widens from its second end toward its first end. That is, the end of the air duct 33 near the air inlet 311 has a wide opening, allowing air in the return air duct 6 to diffuse within the air duct 33. Simultaneously, the air inlet 311 of the air duct 33 is elongated, with one side of the evaporator 43 directly opposite the air inlet 311. The elongated air inlet 311 connects directly to the first end of the air duct 33, increasing the contact area between the humid air and the evaporator 43, improving the air condensation efficiency, and thus improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat pump system.

[0084] In some embodiments, a second pipe connector 34 is provided at one end of the air duct 33 away from the air inlet 311, one end of the return air pipe 6 is detachably connected to the second pipe connector 34, and the other end of the return air pipe 6 is detachably connected to the return air inlet 22, thereby connecting the air duct 33 and the return air pipe 6, so that the air in the clothing processing chamber 20 can enter the air duct 33 through the return air pipe 6 and enter the two chambers 31 through the air duct 33.

[0085] Please see Figures 2 to 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a top cover 35 is provided on the top surface of the base 3. The top cover 35 is used to cover the top of the base 3, thereby closing the top openings of the two chambers 31 and the air guide duct 33. Specifically, the two chambers 31 and the air guide duct 33 are respectively formed by recessed downward extensions from the top surface of the base 3. When the top cover 35 is placed on the top surface of the base 3, the top cover 35 can simultaneously close the top openings of the two chambers 31 and the air guide duct 33.

[0086] Please see Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the peripheral edge of the base 3 is fixed to the inner wall of the box 1, thereby fixing the base 3 into the box 1, so that the bottom of the base 3 is suspended in the air and is spaced above the top of the cylinder 2.

[0087] Figure 11 yes Figure 10 A structural diagram from another perspective. Figure 12 yes Figure 11 The front view.

[0088] Please see Figures 2 to 12 As shown, in some embodiments, a support rib 11 protrudes from the top side wall of the housing 1. The support rib 11 extends in a long strip and is arranged horizontally. At the same time, a support portion 36 protrudes from the peripheral edge of the base 3. The support portion 36 extends horizontally. The base 3 is supported and fixed to the support rib 11 by the support portion 36.

[0089] In some embodiments, multiple support ribs 11 are provided, and the multiple support ribs 11 are respectively arranged in the top area of ​​the left side wall, right side wall and rear side wall of the housing 1. Correspondingly, multiple support parts 36 are provided, and the multiple support parts 36 are respectively provided at the left side edge, right side edge and rear side edge of the base 3, and are correspondingly mounted and fixed on the support ribs 11 of the left side wall, right side wall and rear side wall of the housing 1.

[0090] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the support rib 11 can also be arranged in the top area of ​​the front side wall of the housing 1. Correspondingly, the support part 36 can also be arranged at the left edge of the base 3, and correspondingly mounted and fixed on the support rib 11 of the front side wall of the housing 1.

[0091] In some embodiments, the support portion 36 is provided with a first fixing hole 361, which is located at the peripheral edge of the base 3. Simultaneously, the support rib 11 is provided with a second fixing hole (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the first fixing hole 361. By using screws inserted into the first fixing hole 361 and the second fixing hole, the support portion 36 can be locked onto the support rib 11, thereby fixing the base 3 to the inner wall of the housing 1.

[0092] In some embodiments, the support portion 36 is provided with a plurality of first fixing holes 361, which are arranged at intervals along the length of the support portion 36. Simultaneously, the support rib 11 is provided with a plurality of second fixing holes, which are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the first fixing holes 361 on the support portion 36. By fixing the support portion 36 securely to the support rib 11 through the one-to-one correspondence of the plurality of first fixing holes 361 and the plurality of second fixing holes, the base 3 can be stably fixed inside the housing 1.

[0093] Please see Figures 9 to 12 As shown, in some embodiments, an air outlet groove 318 is recessed at the bottom surface of the two chambers 31 near the air outlet 312. The air outlet groove 318 is located on the side of the condenser 42 away from the evaporator 43, and the air outlet 312 is formed on the side wall of the air outlet groove 318 away from the condenser 42. A first pipe connector 319 is formed on the side of the air outlet groove 318 away from the condenser 42, and the air outlet 312 is formed inside the first pipe connector 319, which is connected to the fan 5. When air enters the two chambers 31 through the air inlet 311, it first contacts the evaporator 43 to condense and dehumidify, forming dry and cold air. The dry and cold air then contacts the condenser 42 and becomes hot, forming dry and hot air. The dry and hot air enters the air outlet groove 318, enters the fan 5 through the air outlet 312, and finally enters the clothes processing chamber 20 through the air inlet 21 to dry the clothes.

[0094] It should be noted that the air outlet groove 318 is formed by the downward recessed extension of the bottom surface of the two chambers 31, and the bottom of the air outlet groove 318 protrudes from the bottom surface of the base 3 and extends downward. Therefore, the depth of the air outlet groove 318 is greater than the depth of the two chambers 31, so the side wall of the air outlet groove 318 can provide a sufficiently large area for the opening of the air outlet 312, that is, provide sufficient space for the arrangement of the first pipe joint 319, thereby ensuring that a large wind force and wind speed can be formed in the two chambers 31; at the same time, it reduces the depth requirement of the area where the evaporator 43 and condenser 42 are located in the two chambers 31, thereby maximizing the reduction of the thickness of the base 3, reducing the occupation of the top area space inside the box 1, and thus improving the utilization efficiency of the internal space of the box 1.

[0095] In some embodiments, within the two chambers 31, the bottom surface height of the condenser 42 is lower than that of the evaporator 43. In this case, the bottom surface heights of the evaporator 43, condenser 42, and air outlet 318 decrease sequentially in a stepped manner. This allows the air flowing through the evaporator 43 within the two chambers 31 to smoothly enter the air outlet 318 through the area where the condenser 42 is located, ensuring sufficient contact between the flowing air and the condenser 42, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the heat pump system.

[0096] Please see Figures 3 to 12 As shown, in some embodiments, when the base 3 is mounted above the top of the cylinder 2, the two cavities 31 are directly opposite the arc-shaped top of the cylinder 2, and the bottom of the area where the air outlet groove 318 and the first pipe connector 319 are located can extend downward to one side of the arc-shaped top of the cylinder 2, such as... Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown. Therefore, the space above the top of the cylinder 2 can be fully utilized to reduce the height and thickness of the base 3, thereby reducing the overall size of the machine.

[0097] Please see Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, in some embodiments, a reinforcing rib 37 is protruding from the bottom surface of the base 3, and the reinforcing rib 37 is located below the bottom of the two cavities 31. The reinforcing rib 37 extends laterally, and its extension direction is perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the axial direction of the cylinder 2. Simultaneously, an arc-shaped clearance groove 38 is recessed at the bottom of the reinforcing rib 37, and the clearance groove 38 is positioned vertically opposite the arc-shaped top of the cylinder 2. The reinforcing rib 37 enhances the structural strength of the two cavities 31 area of ​​the base 3, and the clearance groove 38 provides clearance for the arc-shaped top of the cylinder 2, ensuring that the base 3 and the bottom of the cylinder 2 do not contact each other. Therefore, the reinforcing rib 37 can enhance the structural strength of the base 3 without increasing its thickness or the overall volume of the equipment.

[0098] In some embodiments, one end of the reinforcing rib 37 is connected to the sidewall of the vent groove 318. Therefore, the reinforcing rib 37 can also simultaneously increase the structural strength of the area where the vent groove 318 of the base 3 is located, further enhancing the overall structural strength of the base 3.

[0099] In some embodiments, one end of the reinforcing rib 37 that connects to the side wall of the air outlet groove 318 extends to the side wall where the first pipe joint 319 is located, thereby improving the structural strength of the first pipe joint 319 and ensuring that the first pipe joint 319 can be stably connected to the fan 5.

[0100] Please see Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, in some embodiments, the reinforcing rib 37 includes a first reinforcing segment 371 and a second reinforcing segment 372 arranged at intervals. The first reinforcing segment 371 and the second reinforcing segment 372 are located on the same plane, that is, the first reinforcing segment 371 and the second reinforcing segment 372 extend in the same direction. The first reinforcing segment 371 and the second reinforcing segment 372 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the arc-shaped top of the cylinder 2. The bottom of the first reinforcing segment 371 is provided with a first arc-shaped surface 3711 facing the second reinforcing segment 372, and the bottom of the second reinforcing segment 372 is provided with a second arc-shaped surface 3721 facing the first reinforcing segment 371. The first arc-shaped surface 3711 and the second arc-shaped surface 3721 are located on the same arc-shaped surface, thereby forming the clearance groove 38 between the first arc-shaped surface 3711 and the second arc-shaped surface 3721. Therefore, the reinforcing rib 37 can also be a two-segment structure, respectively located on the left and right sides of the arc-shaped top of the cylinder 2.

[0101] In some embodiments, the outer end of the second reinforcing section 372 is connected to the sidewall of the air outlet groove 318, that is, the end of the second reinforcing section 372 away from the first reinforcing section 371 is connected to the sidewall of the air outlet groove 318. It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the outer end of the first reinforcing section 371 may also be connected to the sidewall of the air outlet groove 318.

[0102] Figure 13 yes Figure 7 A schematic diagram of the structure of the intermediate filter device 7. Figure 14 yes Figure 13 A schematic diagram of its decomposed structure. Figure 15 yes Figure 13 A structural diagram from another perspective.

[0103] Please see Figures 5 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, a filter device 7 is provided on the base 3, and the filter device 7 is located between the air inlet 311 of the two chambers 31 and the first end of the guide air duct 33. Therefore, the humid and hot air in the clothing processing chamber 20 can enter the guide air duct 33 through the return air inlet 22 and the return air duct 6. After being filtered by the filter device 7 through the guide air duct 33, the air enters the two chambers 31 through the air inlet 311 and then comes into contact with the evaporator 43 for condensation. The condensed air is then heated by the condenser 42 and returns to the clothing processing chamber 20 through the air outlet 312 and the air inlet 21. During the drying process, lint, small particles and other impurities on the clothes can enter the humid and hot air. The filter device 7 can remove the impurities in the air, preventing them from covering the surface of the evaporator 43 and affecting the working efficiency of the evaporator 43, thereby improving the drying efficiency of the clothing processing device.

[0104] Please see Figures 13 to 15As shown, in some embodiments, the filtering device 7 includes a filter box 71 and a filter screen 72. The filter box 71 extends in an elongated shape, and the extension direction of the filter box 71 is consistent with the extension direction of the air inlet 311. The filter screen 72 is disposed inside the filter box 71, and the filter screen 72 is also elongated, with its extension direction also consistent with the extension direction of the air inlet 311. The first end of the air guide duct 33 is connected to the interior of the filter box 71, allowing air within the air guide duct 33 to be introduced into the filter box 71, filtered by the filter screen 72, and then enter the two chambers 31 through the air inlet 311.

[0105] In some embodiments, the filter box 71 is retractably mounted on the base 3 along its length, with one end of the filter box 71 extending to and protruding from the edge of the base 3. Therefore, when it is necessary to clean or replace the filter box 71 and the filter screen 72, the filter box 71 can be pulled out from the base 3 along its length, the filter box 71 and the filter screen 72 can be replaced or cleaned, and then the filter box 71 can be reinserted into the base 3, making it convenient for users to install and maintain the filter box.

[0106] Please see Figures 13 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the filter box 71 has a first opening 711 and a second opening 712 on opposite sides in the lateral direction, and the first opening 711 and the second opening 712 are interconnected through the interior of the filter box 71. The first opening 711 is directly connected to the air inlet 311, and the second opening 712 is directly connected to the first end of the airflow duct 33. A filter screen 72 is arranged at the first opening 711 or the second opening 712 and encloses the first opening 711 or the second opening 712. Therefore, all the air in the airflow duct 33 can enter the interior of the filter box 71, be filtered by the filter screen 72 to remove impurities, and then enter the two chambers 31 through the air inlet 311.

[0107] It should be noted that in other embodiments, multiple filter screens 72 may be provided, with filter screens 72 provided at both the first opening 711 and the second opening 712. In other embodiments, multiple filter screens 72 may also be arranged side by side inside the filter box 71.

[0108] Figure 16 yes Figure 6 A partial structural diagram of the cleaning device.

[0109] Please see Figures 5 to 16 As shown, in some embodiments, the garment handling apparatus further includes a cleaning device, which includes a cleaning pipe 81, a water inlet pipe 82, and a water inlet valve 83.

[0110] The cleaning pipe 81 extends in a long strip, with its extension direction aligned with that of the air inlet 311, and is positioned above the air inlet 311. One side of the cleaning pipe 81 faces the evaporator 43, and this side has a cleaning port 811 facing the evaporator 43. Water from the cleaning pipe 81 can be sprayed onto the surface of the evaporator 43 through the cleaning port 811, thus cleaning the evaporator 43. This allows impurities such as lint on the surface of the evaporator 43 to flow into the condensation tank 313 below the evaporator 43, and then be discharged to the outside of the base 3 through the outlet 314 of the condensation tank 313.

[0111] In some embodiments, the cleaning pipe 81 is provided with a plurality of cleaning ports 811, and the plurality of cleaning ports 811 are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the air inlet 311. The plurality of cleaning ports 811 can face different areas of the surface of the evaporator 43, thereby enabling cleaning of most or all of the evaporator 43.

[0112] Please see Figures 2 to 6 As shown, one end of the water inlet pipe 82 is connected to the interior of the cleaning pipe 81, and the other end is connected to the water inlet valve 83. The water inlet valve 83 is used to connect to an external water source and can control the opening and closing of the cleaning port 811 of the cleaning pipe 81. Specifically, when the water inlet valve 83 is open, an external water source can supply water to the cleaning pipe 81 through the water inlet pipe 82, thereby causing the cleaning port 811 to spray water toward the evaporator 43, thus achieving the function of cleaning the evaporator 43. When the water inlet valve 83 is closed, the water inlet pipe 82 stops supplying water to the cleaning pipe 81, the cleaning port 811 stops spraying water onto the evaporator 43, and the cleaning function of the evaporator 43 is turned off.

[0113] Based on the above technical solutions, the embodiments of the present invention have the following advantages and positive effects:

[0114] In the clothing processing device of this invention, the condenser 42 and evaporator 43 of the heat pump system are carried by two chambers 31 on the base 3. By arranging a guide air duct 33 on one side of the two chambers 31, the hot and humid air in the clothing processing chamber 20 can be introduced into the two chambers 31 through the guide air duct 33 and the air inlet 311, improving the air flow efficiency. The air in the two chambers 31 comes into contact with the evaporator 43 to achieve condensation and dehumidification. After being heated by the condenser 42, it can return to the clothing processing chamber 20 through the air outlet 312 and the air inlet 21, forming a drying cycle. In this solution, the space in the top area of ​​the cabinet 1 is fully utilized, and the base 3 is fixed in the top area inside the cabinet 1, which helps to reduce the size of the whole machine. The base 3 is arranged at intervals above the cylinder 2 to avoid the vibration generated during the rotation of the cylinder 2 from affecting the normal operation of the heat pump system in the base 3, thereby helping to ensure the drying performance of the heat pump system and effectively preventing it from affecting the drying efficiency of the clothing processing device.

[0115] Although the invention has been described with reference to several typical embodiments, it should be understood that the terminology used is illustrative and exemplary, and not restrictive. Since the invention can be embodied in many forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the invention, it should be understood that the above embodiments are not limited to any of the foregoing details, but should be interpreted broadly within the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims. Therefore, all variations and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the appended claims.
