Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of clothes processing equipment with a drying function, and in particular relates to a clothes processing equipment with a drying function and a drying method. Background Art

[0002] In the related art, the air inlet of a clothing processing device with a drying function is generally set at the door seal, and the circulating air directly enters the inner drum through the air inlet at the door seal. If the air inlet is set at the bottom of the inner drum, the drying air needs to pass through the outer drum and the inner drum. Since the inner drum is rotating, the air duct cannot be sealed, resulting in a reduction in the air intake volume.

[0003] While placing the air inlet near the door seal avoids a reduction in air volume, the air inlet is located at the front of the drum. When drying a large number of clothes, the clothes at the bottom of the drum experience less heat and moisture exchange with the circulating air than those near the perimeter. This makes drying more difficult, thus increasing overall drying time. In rare cases, the rotation of the drum fails to effectively change the relative position of the clothes within the drum, which can reduce overall drying uniformity and degrade the user experience.

[0036] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. In the following description, when referring to the drawings, like numbers in different figures represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments are not intended to represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present invention, as detailed in the appended claims.

[0037] The technical solution of this embodiment is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments and examples can be combined with each other unless there is any conflict.

[0038] According to an exemplary embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a clothes processing device with a drying function. The clothes processing device with a drying function of this embodiment can have only a drying function or can have both a washing function and a drying function. The clothes loading port of the clothes processing device with a drying function can be located at the top of the clothes processing device with a drying function or at the side of the clothes processing device with a drying function. The clothes processing device with a drying function includes an inner drum 1, an input shaft 4, a transmission mechanism, and a fan component 2. The bottom of the inner drum 1 is provided with a plurality of first flow holes 11, which allow air or water to pass through. The input shaft 4 is connected to the bottom of the inner drum 1, and the rotation of the input shaft 4 can drive the inner drum 1 to rotate. The clothes processing device with a drying function also includes a motor, which is connected to the input shaft 4. The motor drives the input shaft 4 to rotate, and the rotation of the input shaft 4 drives the inner drum 1 to rotate. In some embodiments, the wall of the inner drum 1 also has a plurality of second flow holes (not shown in the figure), which can also allow air or water to pass through.

[0039] The transmission mechanism includes a first transmission component 31, which is disposed on the back side of the bottom of the inner drum 1. The first transmission component 31 is configured to rotate with the input shaft 4. In one example, the first transmission component 31 is directly fixedly connected to the input shaft 4, and rotation of the input shaft 4 drives the first transmission component 31 to rotate. In another example, the first transmission component 31 is fixed to the inner drum 1, and the input shaft 4 drives the inner drum 1 to rotate, which in turn drives the first transmission component 31 to rotate. The transmission mechanism can be, for example, a gear transmission or a combination of a drive plate and belt.

[0040] The fan component 2 is in driving connection with the first transmission component 31. When the input shaft 4 rotates forward, the first transmission component 31 drives the fan component 2 to rotate, generating airflow. This allows the dry airflow outside the inner drum 1 to enter the inner drum 1 through the plurality of first flow holes 11. The dry airflow outside the inner drum 1 can flow out of the inner drum 1 through the second flow holes, or can be directly discharged from the drying air duct of the drying system. Alternatively, a heating device can be provided outside the inner drum 1, such as between the housing and the inner drum 1, or between the outer drum 6 and the inner drum 1, to heat the airflow between the inner drum 1 and the housing. Alternatively, if the laundry processing device with a drying function has an outer drum 6, the air between the inner drum 1 and the outer drum 6 is heated, thereby generating the dry airflow when the fan component 2 rotates.

[0041] This embodiment disposes a fan component 2 within the inner drum 1. During the rotation of the inner drum 1, the fan component 2 is driven to rotate by a first transmission component 31 located at the bottom of the inner drum 1. The drying airflow outside the inner drum 1 enters the inner drum 1 through a plurality of first flow holes 11 under the action of the drying fan's rotation, thereby drying the clothes at the bottom of the inner drum 1. This solves the problems of difficulty drying clothes at the bottom of the inner drum 1 and poor drying uniformity of clothes within the inner drum 1. Furthermore, the fan component 2 does not require a dedicated motor to drive its rotation. Instead, the fan component 2 is driven to rotate by the rotation of the input shaft 4, reducing the number of motors required and avoiding wiring at the bottom of the inner drum 1. This also addresses the issue of water affecting the wiring of the fan component 2 when the clothes processing device with a drying function also has a washing function.

[0042] In some embodiments, as Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the first transmission component 31 includes a first gear, which is fixed to the back side of the bottom of the inner drum 1. The first gear is, for example, an external gear or an internal gear. The fan component 2 includes a fan gear 22 and a plurality of blades 21. The plurality of blades 21 are fixed to the fan gear 22 and arranged along the circumference of the fan gear 22. The rotation of the fan gear 22 drives the plurality of blades 21 to rotate, and the fan gear 22 meshes with the first gear. Exemplarily, the fan gear 22 is an external gear. In a preferred embodiment, the surfaces of the blades 21 and the fan gear 22 are treated with an anti-corrosion treatment to prevent rust and corrosion caused by contact with water during washing.

[0043] The fan component 2 of this embodiment can be arranged in various positions:

[0044] In one example, a clothes processing apparatus with a drying function only has a drying function. The clothes processing apparatus with a drying function includes a housing, an inner drum 1 is located within the housing, and a drying fan is fixed to the bottom of the housing and is disposed corresponding to the first transmission component 31. The input shaft 4 rotates through the first transmission component 31 to drive the fan component 2 to rotate. Alternatively, the clothes processing apparatus with a drying function has both a drying function and a washing function. The clothes processing apparatus with a drying function includes a housing and an outer drum 6 located within the housing. The inner drum 1 is disposed within the outer drum 6. The fan component 2 is disposed at the bottom of the outer drum 6 and is disposed corresponding to the first transmission component 31. The input shaft 4 rotates through the first transmission component 31 to drive the fan component 2 to rotate.

[0045] In another example, Figure 1 As shown, a clothes processing device with a drying function has both drying and washing functions. The clothes processing device with a drying function includes a housing and an outer drum 6 located within the housing. An inner drum 1 is disposed within the outer drum 6. The transmission mechanism further includes a second transmission component 32 disposed at the bottom of the outer drum 6. A fan component 2 is located between a first transmission component 31 and a second transmission component 32, and both the first transmission component 31 and the second transmission component 32 are in transmission connection with the fan component 2. The rotation of the input shaft 4 drives the fan component 2 to rotate through the first transmission component 31. Simultaneously, the first and second transmission components 31 and 32 also drive the fan component 2 to rotate circumferentially along the input shaft 4. The rotation speed of the input shaft 4 is different from the rotation speed of the fan component 2 along the circumference of the inner drum 1. In this embodiment, the fan component 2 rotates simultaneously with the first and second transmission components 31 and 32, rotating circumferentially around the input shaft 4, forming a spiral airflow pattern, thereby enhancing heat exchange at the bottom of the inner drum 1 and air turbulence within the inner drum 1. Exemplarily, the second transmission component 32 includes a second gear, which can be, for example, an external gear or an internal gear. The second gear is disposed at the bottom of the outer cylinder 6, and the fan component 2 is disposed between the first gear and the second gear, and both the first gear and the second gear are meshed with the fan gear 22.

[0046] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the diameter of the first gear is larger than that of the fan gear 22. Since the power of the fan component 2 and the inner drum 1 is output by the same input shaft 4, the rotational speed of the inner drum 1 is the same as that of the input shaft 4. However, the speed requirements of the fan component 2 and the inner drum 1 are different, and the transmission ratio of the fan component 2 is greater than that of the inner drum 1. Therefore, the diameter of the first gear is larger, and the diameter of the fan gear 22 is smaller, to meet the higher speed requirements of the fan component 2 and the lower speed requirements of the inner drum 1. Furthermore, since the rotation center of the fan component 2 is far away from the input shaft 4, the rotation speed of the fan component 2 is greater than that of the inner drum 1. This ensures that the fan component 2 rotates around its axis at the bottom of the inner drum 1, forming a spiral air outlet, enhancing heat exchange at the bottom of the drum and airflow disturbance within the drum.

[0047] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, the first gear is an external gear, the second gear is an internal gear, and the first gear is located in the inner ring of the second gear. In other possible implementations, the first gear is an internal gear, the second gear is an external gear, and the second gear is located in the inner ring of the first gear.

[0048] In some embodiments, as Figure 4 As shown, a plurality of first flow holes 11 are arranged along the running track of the fan component 2 so that the fan component 2 can transport more drying airflow outside the inner drum 1 into the inner drum 1 when the fan component 2 rotates.

[0049] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, there are multiple fan components 2, which are spaced apart along the circumference of the inner drum 1. This embodiment utilizes multiple fan components 2 to direct airflow directly to the clothing at the bottom of the inner drum 1 through the first flow holes 11 at the bottom of the inner drum 1. This enhances the turbulence of the air within the inner drum 1 and strengthens the heat and moisture exchange between the clothing at the bottom of the inner drum 1 and the air within the inner drum 1, thereby improving the overall drying speed and uniformity of the clothing.

[0050] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 As shown, two adjacent fan components 2 are connected by a fixing bracket 5 to fix the fan component 2, so as to ensure the reliability of the assembly between the fan component 2 and the first transmission component 31 and the second transmission component 32, while ensuring the spacing between adjacent fan components 2 and ensuring the uniformity of the drying airflow blown into the bottom of the inner cylinder 1.

[0051] In some embodiments, a door seal is provided at the opening of the inner drum 1, and the door seal is provided with an air inlet. An air outlet is provided on the wall of the outer drum 6. The clothing processing device with a drying function includes a drying system, and the drying system includes a drying air duct. Dry air circulates in the drying air duct, and the dry air is generated by a heat pump system or by electric heating. The air outlet end of the drying air duct is connected to the air inlet, and the air inlet end is connected to the air outlet. For clothing processing devices with a drying function whose air inlet is at the front of the drum, when there are many clothes in the drum, the wind resistance at the bottom of the drum is large, resulting in poor heat and moisture exchange between the clothes at the bottom of the drum and the circulating air. By providing a fan component 2 at the bottom of the inner drum 1, the drying air flow outside the inner drum 1 directly acts on the clothes at the bottom of the drum through the first flow hole 11 under the action of the fan component 2, thereby strengthening the disturbance of the air in the drum and improving the drying uniformity of the clothes in the inner drum 1.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, the clothing processing device includes an outer drum 6, an inner drum 1 is arranged in the outer drum 6, a first transmission component 31 includes an external gear, and the external gear is fixed to the inner drum 1. The transmission mechanism also includes a second transmission component 32, and the second transmission component 32 includes an internal gear, which is fixed to the bottom of the outer drum 6. The external gear is located on the inner ring of the internal gear. The fan component 2 is arranged between the external gear and the internal gear. The fan component 2 includes a fan gear 22 and a plurality of blades 21. The plurality of blades 21 are fixed to the fan gear 22 and are arranged along the circumferential direction of the fan gear 22. The rotation of the fan gear 2 drives the plurality of blades 21 to rotate. The external gear and the internal gear are both engaged with the fan gear 22. When the inner drum 1 rotates, the external gear and the internal gear drive the fan component 2 to rotate while rotating along the circumferential direction of the inner drum 1.

[0053] This embodiment provides a drying method for a clothes processing device with a drying function, and the drying method is used to control any clothes processing device with a drying function provided in the first aspect of the present invention. Figure 5 is a control flow chart of a clothes processing device with a drying function according to an exemplary embodiment, referring to Figure 5 , the drying method comprises the following steps:

[0054] S51, controlling the inner drum 1 to rotate in a forward and reverse alternating manner at a first speed and a first start-stop ratio;

[0055] S52, obtaining the air outlet temperature and air outlet humidity of the clothes;

[0056] S53: When the outlet air temperature is greater than or equal to the set temperature and the outlet air humidity is greater than or equal to the set humidity, controlling the inner drum 1 to operate at the second speed and the second start-stop ratio;

[0057] Among them, in the first rotation-stop ratio, the forward rotation time and the reverse rotation time of the inner drum 1 are the same, and in the second rotation-stop ratio, the forward rotation time of the inner drum 1 is greater than the reverse rotation time; the second speed is greater than the first speed.

[0058] In this embodiment, during the drying process, the drying system, such as a heat pump drying system or an electrically heated drying system, is activated. The drying system's circulating fan is activated, and a temperature sensor and a humidity sensor are provided at the washing machine's air outlet. The temperature sensor detects the outlet air temperature, while the humidity sensor detects the outlet air humidity. Because the rotational power of the inner drum 1 and the fan component 2 both originate from the input shaft 4, the forward rotation of the motor of the input shaft 4 drives the inner drum 1 forward, causing the fan component 2 to rotate and generate airflow. However, reverse rotation of the motor results in no airflow from the fan component 2. Prolonged single-direction rotation of the inner drum 1 can cause the clothing inside to become tangled and knotted, hindering drying. Furthermore, in the early stages of drying, the clothing surrounding the inner drum 1 still contains a high amount of moisture, and the system's moisture retention and dehumidification capacity are already maintained at high levels. At this point, the fan component 2 has limited effectiveness. Therefore, after drying begins, the controller records the outlet air temperature and humidity of the inner drum 1 and compares them to the preset temperature Ts and humidity Hs. When the temperature and humidity reach Ts and Hs, respectively, the clothes around the drum are considered relatively dry, with a significant difference in moisture compared to the clothes at the bottom of the drum. At this point, the fan component 2 is more effective. Before the temperature and humidity reach Ts and Hs, the inner drum 1 operates at a first speed V1 and a first rotation-stop ratio R1. V1 can be 30-60 rpm. The first rotation-stop ratio R1 is characterized by equal forward and reverse rotation times. During this stage, the fan component 2 operates for a shorter period of time, primarily to dry the clothes around the drum and prevent them from tangling. After reaching the preset temperature and humidity, the inner drum 1 operates at a second speed V2 and a second rotation-stop ratio R2. V2 can be 40-80 rpm, with V2 greater than V1. The second rotation-stop ratio R2 is characterized by a longer forward rotation time than the reverse rotation time, with the reverse time being shorter. During this stage, the fan component 2 operates for a longer period of time, enhancing heat exchange with the clothes at the bottom of the drum. After that, the drying machine is operated at the second speed V2 and the second start-stop ratio R2 until the drying conditions are met and the drying is completed.
