Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of washing machines, but is not limited to, a clothing washing device and method. Background Technology

[0002] There are two main types of lids for top-loading automatic washing machines: folding lids and one-piece lids. Folding lids are convenient to open and close, and take up less space when open, making it easier to put in and take out clothes. While one-piece lids do not save as much space as folding lids, they make the overall appearance of the washing machine more unified and aesthetically pleasing. Different user groups have different needs for washing machine lids. Some users value the convenience of folding lids, while others pay more attention to the appearance of one-piece lids.

[0003] Currently, the top cover of top-loading automatic washing machines is generally either a folding top cover or an integrated top cover. It is not possible to switch between folding and integrated top covers according to the user's needs. Users can only choose a washing machine that suits their needs based on the top cover design of the washing machine itself. This limitation means that users need to weigh their preferences for convenience and appearance when choosing a washing machine, making it difficult to fully meet the needs of different users. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the problem that the top cover of current pulsator automatic washing machines cannot be switched between folding and one-piece top covers according to user needs, a clothes washing device and method are proposed.

[0005] One aspect of this application provides a clothes washing device, the purpose of which is to allow users to switch between a folding top cover and an integrated top cover of the washing machine according to their own needs.

[0006] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: a clothes washing device, including a pulsator washing machine body, a tray base is provided on the pulsator washing machine body, a front upper cover and a rear upper cover are provided on the tray base, and also includes an upper cover fixing unit, a front upper cover connecting unit and a rear upper cover connecting unit.

[0007] The upper cover fixing unit is disposed on the front upper cover and the rear upper cover, and is used to fix and disassemble the front upper cover and the rear upper cover;

[0008] The upper cover fixing unit includes a snap-fit ​​component disposed on the front upper cover and the rear upper cover for connecting the front upper cover and the rear upper cover together; the snap-fit ​​component includes a mounting plate disposed on the rear upper cover, the mounting plate is provided with a sliding sleeve, the sliding sleeve is slidably provided with a T-shaped rod, the T-shaped rod is provided with a snap-fit ​​block, the front upper cover is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove, the snap-fit ​​groove is provided with a snap-fit ​​opening, and the snap-fit ​​opening is correspondingly provided with the snap-fit ​​block;

[0009] A push-pull component is mounted on the snap-fit ​​component and is used to drive the snap-fit ​​component to snap into place;

[0010] The front upper cover connecting unit is disposed on the upper cover fixing unit and is used to connect and separate the front upper cover and the rear upper cover;

[0011] The rear upper cover connecting unit is disposed on the upper cover fixing unit and is used to connect and separate the rear upper cover and the disc base.

[0012] Using the above technical solution, when the T-shaped rod is pushed, it slides in the sliding sleeve and drives the snap-fit ​​block to move and insert into the snap-fit ​​groove, thereby connecting the front upper cover and the rear upper cover. When the T-shaped rod is pulled, it drives the snap-fit ​​block to move out of the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0013] Furthermore, the push-pull component includes a slide rail, which is mounted on a mounting plate. A sliding frame is slidably mounted on the slide rail. A side fixing plate and a side fixing block are mounted on the mounting plate. A threaded rod is threadedly connected to the sliding frame. One end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the side fixing plate. The other end of the threaded rod passes through the side fixing block and is fitted with a worm gear. A worm is mounted on the mounting plate and meshes with the worm gear. One end of the worm is fitted with a handle. A push-pull slot is formed on the sliding frame. The push-pull slot includes an inclined section and a horizontal section. A push-pull block is installed inside the push-pull slot. The end of the T-shaped rod away from the locking groove is connected to the block wall of the push-pull block.

[0014] Using the above technical solution, rotating the handle drives the worm to rotate, the worm drives the worm wheel to rotate, the worm wheel drives the threaded rod to rotate, and the threaded rod is threadedly engaged with the sliding frame. Thus, the rotation of the threaded rod drives the sliding frame to slide on the slide rail. The movement of the sliding frame drives the push-pull block to move in the inclined section and the horizontal section of the slot in the push-pull slot.

[0015] Furthermore, the front upper cover connecting unit includes a front upper cover connecting component, which is disposed on the push-pull component, and a front pull component is disposed on the front upper cover connecting component;

[0016] The front upper cover connecting component includes two symmetrically arranged front connecting housings, which are mounted on a mounting plate. Two symmetrically arranged front retaining seats are also present on the front upper cover. Each front retaining seat has a front circular retaining hole. A front retaining rod is slidably disposed within the front connecting housing, and a front fixing ring is sleeved on the front retaining rod. The front retaining rod corresponds to the front retaining seat. One end of the front retaining rod passes through the front connecting housing and extends into the front circular retaining hole. A front elastic reset element, which is a spring, is sleeved on the front retaining rod and is disposed within the front connecting housing.

[0017] Using the above technical solution, the front locking rod is inserted into the front circular locking hole on the front locking seat. When the front locking rod is subjected to tension, the front locking rod drives the front fixing ring to move, thereby compressing the front elastic reset member and causing the end of the front locking rod to move out of the front circular locking hole.

[0018] Furthermore, the front pulling component includes a front pulling rod, one end of which is symmetrically hinged with two front hinge rods. One end of the front hinge rod is hinged to the end of the front latching rod away from the front latch seat. An L-shaped rod is provided on the mounting plate, and the front pulling rod is slidably mounted on the L-shaped rod. A front adjustment slot is provided on the sliding frame, which includes a first horizontal adjustment slot section, an inclined slot section, and a second horizontal adjustment slot section. A front adjustment block is movably disposed in the front adjustment slot, and one end of the front adjustment block is fixedly connected to the rod wall of the front pulling rod.

[0019] Using the above technical solution, the sliding frame moves the front adjusting block within the first horizontal adjusting slot section, the inclined slot section, and the second horizontal adjusting slot section in the front adjusting slot. The movement of the front adjusting block causes the front pulling rod to slide on the L-shaped rod, which in turn drives the front hinge rod to move, and the front hinge rod drives the front locking rod to move.

[0020] Furthermore, the rear upper cover connecting unit includes a rear upper cover connecting component, which is disposed on the push-pull component, and a rear pull component is disposed on the rear upper cover connecting component;

[0021] The rear upper cover connecting component includes a rear connecting housing, which is mounted on a mounting plate. Two rear retaining seats are symmetrically arranged on the base. A rear circular retaining hole is formed through the rear retaining seat. A rear retaining rod is slidably arranged inside the rear connecting housing. A rear fixing ring is sleeved on the rear retaining rod. The rear retaining rod is correspondingly arranged with the rear retaining seat. One end of the rear retaining rod passes through the rear connecting housing and extends into the rear circular retaining hole. A rear elastic reset member, which is a spring, is sleeved on the rear retaining rod and is located inside the rear connecting housing.

[0022] Using the above technical solution, the rear locking rod is inserted into the rear circular locking hole. When the rear locking rod is subjected to tension, the rear locking rod drives the rear fixing ring to move. The rear fixing ring elastically compresses the rear elastic reset member until the rear locking rod is removed from the rear circular locking hole.

[0023] Furthermore, the rear pulling component includes a rear pulling rod, one end of which is symmetrically hinged with two rear hinge rods. One end of each rear hinge rod is hinged to the end of a rear locking rod away from the rear locking seat. A rear sliding sleeve is provided on the mounting plate, and the rear pulling rod is slidably mounted on the rear sliding sleeve. A rear adjustment slot is provided on the sliding frame, which includes a rear horizontal adjustment slot section and a rear tilt adjustment slot section. A rear adjustment block is provided in the rear adjustment slot, and one end of the rear adjustment block is fixedly connected to the rod wall of the rear pulling rod.

[0024] Using the above technical solution, the sliding frame moves the rear adjustment block within the rear horizontal adjustment slot section and the rear tilt adjustment slot section of the rear adjustment slot. The rear adjustment block drives the rear pull rod to move, causing the rear pull rod to slide on the rear pull rod. The rear pull rod drives the rear hinge rod to move, thereby driving the rear locking rod to move.

[0025] Furthermore, a fluorescent lamp is provided on the tray base.

[0026] Using the above technical solution, when the fluorescent lamp is turned on and the clothing is irradiated with the fluorescent lamp, the clothing will emit fluorescence if there is residual fluorescent agent on it.

[0027] Furthermore, this application also provides a method for using a clothing washing device, including the following steps:

[0028] By rotating the handle, the worm gear is rotated, causing the sliding frame to move and the push-pull block to move in the push-pull slot. As the push-pull block moves downward in the inclined section of the slot, it will simultaneously drive the T-shaped rod downward. The T-shaped rod slides in the sliding sleeve and pulls the locking block. Then, the T-shaped rod drives the locking block to move out of the locking slot, so that the front and rear top covers can be used as a folding top cover. When using the one-piece top cover, the handle is rotated in the opposite direction, so that the locking block is inserted into the locking slot to limit the front top cover, thus making the front and rear top covers a one-piece top cover.

[0029] The sliding frame moves the front adjustment block first in the first horizontal adjustment slot section, and then the front adjustment block enters the inclined slot section until the front adjustment block enters the second horizontal adjustment slot section. As the front adjustment block moves downward along the inclined slot section, the front adjustment block pulls the front pulling rod downward, so that the end of the front locking rod moves out of the front round locking hole, thereby removing the front top cover.

[0030] The sliding frame moves the rear adjustment block in the rear adjustment slot until it enters the rear tilt adjustment slot section. The rear adjustment block moves from bottom to top in the rear tilt adjustment slot section, thereby driving the rear pull rod to pull the two rear hinge rods. The rear hinge rods pull the rear locking rod to move, and the rear locking rods drive the rear fixing ring to move until the rear locking rods are removed from the rear circular locking hole, thus removing the rear top cover.

[0031] Using the above technical solution, by rotating the handle, the T-shaped rod moves the locking block out of the locking slot, thus making the front and rear top covers fold together for use. When the handle is rotated in the opposite direction, the locking block is inserted into the locking slot to restrict the front top cover, thus making the front and rear top covers a single cover. This allows for switching between the single cover and the folding cover, allowing users to choose whether to use the folding cover or the single cover according to their needs.

[0032] The sliding frame moves the front adjustment block from the first horizontal adjustment slot section into the inclined slot section. As the front adjustment block moves downward along the inclined slot section, it pulls the front pull rod downward, causing the end of the front locking rod to move out of the front round locking hole, thus facilitating the removal and disassembly of the front top cover.

[0033] The sliding frame moves the rear adjustment block in the rear adjustment slot until it enters the rear tilt adjustment slot section. The rear adjustment block moves from bottom to top in the rear tilt adjustment slot section, which drives the rear pull rod to pull the two rear hinge rods. The rear hinge rods pull the rear locking rod to move, so that the rear locking rod moves out of the rear round locking hole, thus making it easy to remove and disassemble the rear top cover.

[0034] Furthermore, by turning on the fluorescent lamp, the clothes will emit fluorescence when the fluorescent lamp is used to illuminate them, as there is residual fluorescent agent on the clothes.

[0035] Using the above technical solution, fluorescent lamps are used to irradiate clothing to observe whether there are residual fluorescent agents on the clothing, thereby determining whether the cleaning liquid or laundry detergent on the clothing has been cleaned.

[0036] The beneficial effects of this invention are:

[0037] 1. In this invention, with the cooperation of the top cover fixing unit, the rotating handle causes the T-shaped rod to move the snap-fit ​​block out of the snap-fit ​​slot, so that the front and rear top covers can be used as a folding top cover. When the rotating handle is rotated in the opposite direction, the snap-fit ​​block is inserted into the snap-fit ​​slot to limit the front top cover, so that the front and rear top covers are combined into an integrated top cover. This allows for switching between an integrated top cover and a folding top cover, thus satisfying the user's choice of whether to use a folding top cover or an integrated top cover according to their usage needs, making the application range wider and better meeting the user's needs.

[0038] 2. In this invention, with the cooperation of the front upper cover connecting unit, the sliding frame is moved by rotating the handle, which drives the front adjusting block to move first in the first horizontal adjusting slot section, and then the front adjusting block enters the inclined slot section until the front adjusting block enters the second horizontal adjusting slot section. As the front adjusting block moves downward along the inclined slot section, the front adjusting block pulls the front pulling rod downward, so that the end of the front locking rod moves out of the front round locking hole, thereby making it easy to remove the front upper cover. This makes it easy to disassemble and replace the front upper cover.

[0039] 3. In this invention, with the cooperation of the rear upper cover connecting unit, the sliding frame moves to drive the rear adjusting block to move in the rear adjusting slot until the rear adjusting block enters the rear tilting adjusting slot section. The rear adjusting block moves from bottom to top in the rear tilting adjusting slot section, thereby driving the rear pulling rod to pull the two rear hinge rods to move. The rear hinge rods pull the rear locking rod to move, and the rear locking rods drive the rear fixing ring to move until the rear locking rod moves out of the rear circular locking hole, thereby making it easy to remove the rear upper cover. This allows for convenient removal and replacement of the rear upper cover.

[0040] 4. When clothes are shone with a fluorescent lamp, any residual fluorescent agents on the clothes will fluoresce, thus allowing you to detect whether there are any fluorescent agents left in the laundry detergent on the washed clothes. Attached Figure Description

[0052] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0053] Example 1, referring to Figure 1-4This is the first embodiment of the present invention, providing a clothes washing device, including a pulsator washing machine body 1, a tray base 2 mounted on the pulsator washing machine body 1, a front upper cover 3 and a rear upper cover 4 disposed on the tray base 2, and also including an upper cover fixing unit 5, a front upper cover connecting unit 6 and a rear upper cover connecting unit 7. A fluorescent lamp 8 is mounted on the tray base 2, and the fluorescent lamp 8 is electrically connected to an external switch. When the fluorescent lamp 8 is activated, it will emit fluorescence if there is residual fluorescent agent on the clothes when the fluorescent lamp 8 is used to irradiate them. The upper cover fixing unit 5 is mounted on the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4, and is used to fix and separate the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4. The front upper cover connecting unit 6 is mounted on the upper cover fixing unit 5, and the front upper cover connecting unit 6 can be a pin, which connects and separates the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4. The rear upper cover connecting unit 7 is mounted on the upper cover fixing unit 5, and the rear upper cover connecting unit 7 can be a pin, which connects and separates the rear upper cover 4 and the tray base 2.

[0054] The upper cover fixing unit 5 includes a snap-fit ​​component 51, which is installed on the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4 to connect the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4 together. The snap-fit ​​component 51 includes a mounting plate 511, which is fixedly connected to the rear upper cover 4 by bolts, so that the mounting plate 511 can be removed from the rear upper cover 4. A sliding sleeve 512 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 511, and a T-shaped rod 513 is slidably connected to the sliding sleeve 512. A snap-fit ​​block 514 is fixedly connected to the T-shaped rod 513. A snap-fit ​​groove 515 is fixedly connected to the front upper cover 3. A snap-fit ​​opening 516 is opened on the snap-fit ​​groove 515, and the snap-fit ​​opening 516 is correspondingly set with the snap-fit ​​block 514. A push-pull component 52 is installed on the snap-fit ​​component 51 to drive the snap-fit ​​component 51 to snap.

[0055] Specifically, using the above technical solution, when the T-shaped rod 513 is pushed, the T-shaped rod 513 slides in the sliding sleeve 512 and drives the snap-fit ​​block 514 to move and insert into the snap-fit ​​groove 516 on the snap-fit ​​groove 515, thereby connecting the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4. When the T-shaped rod 513 is pulled, the T-shaped rod 513 drives the snap-fit ​​block 514 to move out of the snap-fit ​​groove 516.

[0056] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 10The push-pull component 52 includes a slide rail 521, which is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 511. A sliding frame 522 is slidably connected to the slide rail 521. The slide rail 521 is a T-shaped slide rail, and the sliding frame 522 has a T-shaped groove that matches the slide rail 521. A side fixing plate 523 and a side fixing block 524 are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 511. A threaded rod 525 is threadedly connected to the sliding frame 522. One end of the threaded rod 525 is rotatably connected to the side fixing plate 523, and the other end of the threaded rod 525 passes through the side fixing plate 523. A worm gear 526 is fixedly sleeved on the fixed block 524. A worm 527 is rotatably connected to the mounting plate 511. The worm 527 meshes with the worm gear 526. A handle 528 is fixedly connected to one end of the worm 527. A push-pull slot 529 is provided on the sliding frame 522. The push-pull slot 529 includes an inclined section 5291 and a horizontal section 5292. A push-pull block 5210 is movably arranged in the push-pull slot 529. One end of the T-shaped rod 513 away from the snap-fit ​​groove 515 is fixedly connected to the block wall of the push-pull block 5210.

[0057] Specifically, rotating the handle 528 drives the worm gear 527 to rotate, the worm gear 527 drives the worm wheel 526 to rotate, the worm wheel 526 drives the threaded rod 525 to rotate, and the threaded rod 525 is threadedly engaged with the sliding frame 522. Thus, the rotation of the threaded rod 525 drives the sliding frame 522 to slide on the slide rail 521. The movement of the sliding frame 522 drives the push-pull block 5210 to move in the inclined section 5291 and the horizontal section 5292 of the push-pull slot 529.

[0058] During use, rotating the handle 528 drives the worm gear 527 to rotate, which in turn drives the worm wheel 526 to rotate. The worm wheel 526 then drives the threaded rod 525 to rotate, which in turn drives the sliding frame 522 to slide on the slide rail 521. The movement of the sliding frame 522 causes the push-pull block 5210 to move in the push-pull slot 529. The push-pull block 5210 first moves in the inclined section 5291 of the slot, causing it to move downwards until it enters the horizontal section 5292. As the push-pull block 5210 moves downwards in the inclined section 5291, it simultaneously drives the T-shaped rod 513 to move downwards. The T-shaped rod 513 slides within the sliding sleeve 512 and pulls the locking block 514, which in turn causes the locking block 514 to move out of the locking slot 516.

[0059] Example 2, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6-7 This is the second embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the front upper cover connecting unit 6 includes a front upper cover connecting component 61, the front upper cover connecting component 61 is mounted on the push-pull component 52, and a front pull component 62 is mounted on the front upper cover connecting component 61.

[0060] The front upper cover connecting component 61 includes two symmetrically arranged front connecting housings 611, which are fixedly connected to the mounting plate 511. Two front retaining seats 612 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the front upper cover 3. Each front retaining seat 612 has a front circular retaining hole 613. A front retaining rod 614 is slidably connected through the front connecting housing 611. The front retaining rod 614 is cylindrical, allowing it to easily rotate within the front circular retaining hole 613. A front retaining ring 61 is sleeved on the front retaining rod 614. 5. The front locking rod 614 is correspondingly set with the front locking seat 612. One end of the front locking rod 614 passes through the front connecting housing 611 and extends into the front circular locking hole 613. A front elastic reset member 616 is sleeved on the front locking rod 614. The front elastic reset member 616 is a spring. The front elastic reset member 616 is installed in the front connecting housing 611. One end of the front elastic reset member 616 abuts against the inner shell wall of the front connecting housing 611, and the other end of the front elastic reset member 616 abuts against the ring wall of the front fixing ring 615.

[0061] Specifically, the front locking rod 614 is inserted into the front circular locking hole 613 on the front locking seat 612. When the front locking rod 614 is subjected to tension, the front locking rod 614 drives the front fixing ring 615 to move, thereby compressing the front elastic reset member 616, and thus causing the end of the front locking rod 614 to move out of the front circular locking hole 613.

[0062] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 6-7 and Figure 10 The front pulling component 62 includes a front pulling rod 621. Two front hinge rods 622 are symmetrically hinged to one end of the front pulling rod 621. One end of the front hinge rod 622 is hinged to the end of the front locking rod 614 away from the front locking seat 612. An L-shaped rod 623 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 511. The front pulling rod 621 is slidably connected to the L-shaped rod 623. A front adjustment slot 624 is provided on the sliding frame 522. The front adjustment slot 624 includes a first horizontal adjustment slot section 6241, an inclined slot section 6242, and a second horizontal adjustment slot section 6243. A front adjustment block 625 is movably connected in the front adjustment slot 624. One end of the front adjustment block 625 is fixedly connected to the rod wall of the front pulling rod 621.

[0063] Specifically, the sliding frame 522 moves the front adjusting block 625 within the first horizontal adjusting slot section 6241, the inclined slot section 6242, and the second horizontal adjusting slot section 6243 in the front adjusting slot 624. The movement of the front adjusting block 625 causes the front pulling rod 621 to slide on the L-shaped rod 623, which in turn causes the front hinge rod 622 to move. The front hinge rod 622 then causes the front locking rod 614 to move.

[0064] During use, the sliding frame 522 moves the front adjustment block 625 first in the first horizontal adjustment slot section 6241, then the front adjustment block 625 enters the inclined slot section 6242, and then the front adjustment block 625 moves downward along the inclined slot section 6242 until the front adjustment block 625 enters the second horizontal adjustment slot section 6243. During the downward movement of the front adjustment block 625 along the inclined slot section 6242, the front adjustment block 625 pulls the front pulling rod 621 downward, the front pulling rod 621 pulls the two front hinge rods 622, the front hinge rods 622 pull the front locking rod 614 to move, the front locking rod 614 drives the front fixing ring 615 to move, thereby causing the front elastic reset member 616 to be elastically compressed, so that the end of the front locking rod 614 is moved out of the front round locking hole 613, thereby allowing the front upper cover 3 to be removed.

[0065] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 1.

[0066] Example 3, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 8-9 This is the third embodiment of the present invention. The difference between this embodiment and the second embodiment is that the rear upper cover connecting unit 7 includes a rear upper cover connecting component 71, the rear upper cover connecting component 71 is mounted on the push-pull component 52, and a rear pull component 72 is mounted on the rear upper cover connecting component 71.

[0067] The rear upper cover connecting component 71 includes a rear connecting housing 711, which is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 511. Two rear retaining seats 712 are symmetrically fixedly connected to the base 2. Each rear retaining seat 712 has a through rear circular retaining hole 713. A rear retaining rod 714 is slidably connected through the rear connecting housing 711. The rear retaining rod 714 is cylindrical, allowing it to easily rotate within the rear circular retaining hole 713. A rear retaining ring 715 is fitted onto the rear retaining rod 714. The locking rod 714 is correspondingly set with the rear locking seat 712. One end of the rear locking rod 714 passes through the rear connecting housing 711 and extends into the rear circular locking hole 713. A rear elastic reset member 716 is sleeved on the rear locking rod 714. The rear elastic reset member 716 is a spring. The rear elastic reset member 716 is installed in the rear connecting housing 711. One end of the rear elastic reset member 716 abuts against the inner shell wall of the rear connecting housing 711, and the other end of the rear elastic reset member 716 abuts against the ring wall of the rear fixing ring 715.

[0068] Specifically, the rear locking rod 714 is inserted into the rear circular locking hole 713. When the rear locking rod 714 is subjected to tension, the rear locking rod 714 drives the rear fixing ring 715 to move. The rear fixing ring 715 elastically compresses the rear elastic reset member 716 until the rear locking rod 714 is moved out of the rear circular locking hole 713.

[0069] Reference Figure 8-10The rear pulling component 72 includes a rear pulling rod 721. Two rear hinge rods 722 are symmetrically hinged to one end of the rear pulling rod 721. One end of the rear hinge rod 722 is hinged to the end of the rear locking rod 714 away from the rear locking seat 712. A rear sliding sleeve 723 is provided on the mounting plate 511. The rear pulling rod 721 is slidably connected to the rear sliding sleeve 723. A rear adjustment slot 724 is provided on the sliding frame 522. The rear adjustment slot 724 includes a rear horizontal adjustment slot section 7241 and a rear tilt adjustment slot section 7242. A rear adjustment block 725 is movably connected in the rear adjustment slot 724. One end of the rear adjustment block 725 is fixedly connected to the rod wall of the rear pulling rod 721.

[0070] Specifically, the sliding frame 522 moves the rear adjusting block 725 within the rear horizontal adjusting slot section 7241 and the rear tilt adjusting slot section 7242 of the rear adjusting slot 724. The rear adjusting block 725 drives the rear pulling rod 721 to move, causing the rear pulling rod 721 to slide. The rear pulling rod 721 drives the rear hinge rod 722 to move, which in turn drives the rear locking rod 714 to move.

[0071] During use, the sliding frame 522 moves the rear adjustment block 725 in the rear adjustment slot 724. The rear adjustment block 725 first moves in the rear horizontal adjustment slot section 7241 until it enters the rear tilt adjustment slot section 7242. The rear adjustment block 725 moves from bottom to top in the rear tilt adjustment slot section 7242, thereby pulling the rear pull rod 721 upward. The rear pull rod 721 pulls the two rear hinge rods 722, which in turn pull the rear locking rod 714. The rear locking rod 714 moves the rear fixing ring 715, which elastically compresses the rear elastic reset member 716 until the rear locking rod 714 moves out of the rear circular locking hole 713, thus allowing the rear upper cover 4 to be removed.

[0072] The remaining structure is the same as that in Example 2.

[0073] Example 4, refer to Figure 1-10 The fourth embodiment of the present invention provides a method of using a clothing washing device, comprising the following steps:

[0074] Place the clothes to be washed into the inner drum of the main body 1 of the pulsator washing machine for washing. After washing, turn on the fluorescent lamp 8. When the fluorescent lamp 8 shines on the clothes, if there is residual fluorescent agent on the clothes, the residual fluorescent agent will emit fluorescence under the illumination of the fluorescent lamp 8.

[0075] During use, when the user prefers to use the folding top cover, rotating the handle 528 drives the worm gear 527 to rotate. The worm gear 527 drives the worm wheel 526 to rotate, which in turn drives the threaded rod 525 to rotate. The rotation of the threaded rod 525 causes the sliding frame 522 to slide on the slide rail 521. The movement of the sliding frame 522 causes the push-pull block 5210 to move in the push-pull slot 529. The push-pull block 5210 first moves in the inclined section 5291 of the slot. During the downward movement of the push-pull block 5210 from the inclined section 5291, the front adjusting block 625 always moves within the first horizontal adjusting slot section 6241, thus preventing the front pulling rod 621 from moving. The rear adjusting block 725 always remains within the rear horizontal adjusting slot section 7241, thus preventing the rear sliding sleeve 723 from moving the rear pulling rod 721. This causes the push-pull block 5210 to move downward until the push-pull block 5210... As the push-pull block 5210 moves downward from the inclined section 5291 to the horizontal section 5292, it simultaneously drives the T-shaped rod 513 downward. The T-shaped rod 513 slides within the sliding sleeve 512 and pulls the locking block 514. Consequently, the T-shaped rod 513 drives the locking block 514 out of the locking slot 516, thus preventing the locking block 514 from being inserted into the locking slot 516 to restrict the front upper cover 3. This allows the front upper cover 3 to rotate on the front locking rod 614, enabling the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4 to form a folding upper cover for use. When a one-piece upper cover is preferred, the handle 528 is rotated in the opposite direction, causing the locking block 514 to be inserted into the locking slot 516 to restrict the front upper cover 3, thus enabling the front upper cover 3 and the rear upper cover 4 to form a one-piece upper cover, thereby meeting the user's different needs for folding and one-piece upper covers.

[0076] When removing the front top cover 3, the locking block 514 is moved out of the locking slot 516 by rotating the handle 528, thus removing the restriction on the front top cover 3. Then, the handle 528 is rotated again, and the sliding bracket 522 moves the front adjusting block 625 first in the first horizontal adjusting slot section 6241. When the front adjusting block 625 enters the inclined slot section 6242, the front adjusting block 625 moves from top to bottom. During this process, the push-pull block 5210 is in the horizontal slot section 5292, and the push-pull block 5210 will not drive the T-shaped rod 513 to move. The rear adjusting block 725 is located in the rear horizontal adjusting slot section 7241, and the rear adjusting block 725 will not drive the rear pulling rod 721 to move. Thus, the front adjusting block 625... The front adjustment block 625 moves downward along the inclined slot section 6242 until it enters the second horizontal adjustment slot section 6243. As the front adjustment block 625 moves downward along the inclined slot section 6242, it pulls the front pull rod 621 downward. The front pull rod 621 pulls the two front hinge rods 622. The front hinge rods 622 pull the front locking rod 614 to move. The front locking rod 614 drives the front fixing ring 615 to move, thereby elastically compressing the front elastic reset member 616. This causes the end of the front locking rod 614 to move out of the front round locking hole 613, thereby removing the front upper cover 3.

[0077] When the upper cover 4 is removed, rotating the handle 528 causes the sliding frame 522 to move, which in turn moves the rear adjusting block 725 in the rear adjusting slot 724. The rear adjusting block 725 first moves in the rear horizontal adjusting slot section 7241 until it enters the rear tilt adjusting slot section 7242. When the rear adjusting block 725 enters the rear tilt adjusting slot section 7242, it moves from bottom to top. The push-pull block 5210 is in the horizontal section 5292 of the slot. The push-pull block 5210 will not move the T-shaped rod 513. The front adjusting block 625 is located in the second horizontal adjusting slot section. In 6243, the front adjusting block 625 does not drive the front pulling rod 621 to move. The rear adjusting block 725 moves from bottom to top in the rear tilting adjustment slot section 7242, thereby pulling the rear pulling rod 721 upward through the rear adjusting block 725. The rear pulling rod 721 pulls the two rear hinge rods 722 to move. The rear hinge rods 722 pull the rear locking rod 714 to move. The rear locking rod 714 drives the rear fixing ring 715 to move. The rear fixing ring 715 elastically compresses the rear elastic reset member 716 until the rear locking rod 714 moves out of the rear circular locking hole 713, thereby removing the rear upper cover 4.
