[0032] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of them. Unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be combined with each other. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0033] Please see Figure 1-3 This invention provides a clothes receiving platform for a drum washing machine, relating to a drum washing machine A, which has a drum door A1, including:

[0034] The support platform 100 is located at the lower edge of the clothes-receiving opening of the drum washing machine A. It includes a fixed end 101 connected to the outer shell of the drum washing machine A, a movable end 102 connected to the drum door A1, and a support part 103 connecting the fixed end 101 and the movable end 102. The support part 103 is a telescopic structure. The movable end 102 is arranged on the same rotation axis as the drum door A1 and can rotate with the opening and closing of the drum door A1, synchronously driving the support part 103 to extend and retract.

[0035] In this embodiment, a support platform 100 is provided at the lower edge of the clothes dispensing opening of the drum washing machine A. The support platform 100 consists of a movable end 102, a fixed end 101, and a support part 103. The support part 103 can extend and retract synchronously with the opening and closing of the drum door A1, so that when the drum door A1 is open, a bearing platform can be formed at the lower edge of the clothes dispensing opening of the drum washing machine A to receive clothes that fall from the dispensing opening, thus avoiding the problem of clothes getting dusty again. The effect is good.

[0036] The support platform 100 can be made of folded kraft paper, a metal support, or other rotatable and extendable structures. If made of kraft paper, please refer to [link / reference needed]. Figure 6 Fold the parts in sequence according to the fold lines shown in the figure. Here, mark a as the outward fold line and mark b as the inward fold line.

[0037] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1-3 The supporting part 103 has a folded fan-shaped structure. In this embodiment, the supporting part 103 is arranged in such a way that when the door A1 is opened, it presents a fan-shaped structure, and the fallen clothes can sink into the recess on the supporting part 103, which can increase the contact strength between the fallen clothes and the supporting part 103, making it less likely for the clothes to slip off the supporting part 103.

[0038] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 1-3 The supporting part 103 is provided with an outer edge 104 at the end away from the rotation center. The outer edge 104 has a foldable structure that is adapted to the end of the supporting part 103, and the outer edge 104 is inclined upward, with an included angle of 90-180° between it and the supporting part 103.

[0039] In this embodiment, the outer edge 104 is designed to increase the bearing area of ​​the support portion 103 and add an anti-slip function to the edge of the support portion 103, making it less likely for clothes that fall to the edge of the support portion 103 to slip off, thereby improving the bearing capacity of the clothing receiving platform.

[0040] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 It also includes a reinforcement member 200 disposed at the rotating end of the support platform 100. The reinforcement member 200 includes a plurality of reinforcement plates 201 that are sequentially connected to the ends of the raised portions on the support portion 103. The reinforcement plates 201 are fixed together by a through locking member 202, and each reinforcement plate 201 is connected to the end of the corresponding raised portion on the support portion 103 by a flexible connecting piece 203.

[0041] In this embodiment, the reinforcing plate 201 provides radial tensile force to the support platform 100 to enhance structural stability and prevent edge sagging.

[0042] The innermost reinforcing plate 201 can be bonded to the outer surface of the drum washing machine A by applying adhesive backing, or it can be fixed by other means.

[0043] Specifically, the locking component 202 can be a fastening screw.

[0044] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 It also includes at least one folding frame 300 located on the bottom surface of the support platform 100, which extends and retracts synchronously with the extension and retraction of the support part 103, and is used to reinforce the support system of the support part 103.

[0045] In this embodiment, the support platform 100 is designed in such a way that the fan-shaped edge is not strong enough, which can easily cause overall deformation when clothes are placed on it, especially sagging in the middle and at the edges. Therefore, the folding frame 300 is set to improve the overall structural strength of the support platform 100 and avoid deformation when clothes are placed on it.

[0046] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 4 The folding frame 300 is formed by multiple connecting rods 301 connected in sequence. Each connecting rod 301 is connected to the support part 103 through the positioning shaft 302, and the adjacent connecting rods 301 have an interlocking structure.

[0047] In this embodiment, the foldable function of the foldable frame 300 is configured such that it can extend synchronously with the extension of the support platform 100, providing real-time reinforcement support for the support platform 100 without affecting the posture change of the support platform 100 as it extends and extends with the opening and closing of the gate A1.

[0048] Specifically, the adjacent connecting rods 301 have an interlocking structure, that is, when the folding frame 300 is fully folded, the connecting rods 301 can fit together, reducing the overall thickness and thus adapting to the extension of the support platform 100. This can be achieved by opening a groove on the connecting rod 301 to fit the adjacent connecting rod 301. It is not limited to this method. Other structures that can make the thickness of the folding frame 300 as thin as possible after it is fully folded are also acceptable.

[0049] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 and Figure 12 It also includes an outer shell 400, which includes two integrally formed sub-shells 401. The two sub-shells 401 are assembled to form a space that can accommodate the support platform 100, and the two sub-shells 401 can open synchronously with the opening of the cylinder door A1.

[0050] In this embodiment, the outer casing 400 is configured in such a way that it can both protect the support platform 100 and improve the overall appearance of the drum washing machine when the drum door A1 is closed, making it look neat, uniform, and beautiful.

[0051] This embodiment is adapted for installation on a single support platform 100.

[0052] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 9 , Figure 11 and Figure 12 It also includes a housing 400, which includes two sub-housings 401. Each sub-housing 401 includes a first housing 4011 that houses the support platform 100 and a second housing 4012 that houses the reinforcement. The first housing 4011 and the second housing 4012 are connected by a flexible sheet 4013.

[0053] In this embodiment, the first housing 4011 and the second housing 4012 are configured to accommodate the reinforcement 200 and the support platform 100 respectively, and the reinforcement 200 remains in its current position during the unfolding of the support platform 100, thus providing a stable edge reinforcement function for the support platform 100.

[0054] This embodiment is adapted to the installation of reinforcement components 200 on the support platform 100.

[0055] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 8 The movable end 102 has a concave structure, and its middle part is connected to the gate A1 through the linkage 500.

[0056] In this embodiment, the movable end 102 is designed with a concave structure, which can easily adapt to the arc-shaped structure of the cylinder door A1 and can add an anti-detachment function to the edge of the support part 103.

[0057] Preferably, the top surfaces of the movable end 102 and the fixed end 101 are higher than the top surface of the supporting part 103, which facilitates the formation of a height difference and makes it less likely for the fallen clothing to slip off.

[0058] Specifically, the linkage 500 can be made of iron sheet, with both ends connected to the support platform 100 and the gate A1 respectively by screws, or other structures that can serve a connecting function can be used.

[0059] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 8 The support part 103 is horizontally positioned at the lower edge of the clothes dispensing opening of the drum washing machine A.

[0060] In this embodiment, the support part 103 is set horizontally to prevent fallen clothes from easily slipping off again, thus ensuring the receiving effect of the clothing receiving platform.
