Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of clothing processing equipment technology, and in particular to a clothing processing equipment and drying method with a drying function. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the air inlet of clothing processing equipment with drying function is generally set at the door seal. The circulating air enters the inner drum directly 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 at the door seal avoids reducing airflow, the fact that the air intake is at the front of the drum means that when there are many clothes to dry, the clothes at the bottom of the drum experience less heat and moisture exchange with the circulating air compared to the clothes around the edges. This makes it harder for the clothes at the bottom of the drum to dry, thus prolonging the overall drying time. In some cases, the rotation of the drum may not effectively change the relative position of the clothes inside, also reducing overall drying uniformity and thus lowering the user experience.

[0040] Exemplary embodiments will now be described in detail, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description relates to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numerals in different drawings denote the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with the present invention. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of the invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0041] The technical solution of this embodiment will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and examples can be combined with each other.

[0042] According to an exemplary embodiment, such as Figures 1-6 As shown, this embodiment proposes a clothing processing device with a drying function. This clothing processing device can have only a drying function, or it can have both washing and drying functions simultaneously. The clothing inlet of the clothing processing device can be located either at the top or on the side of the device. The clothing processing device includes an inner drum 1, a drive mechanism, a transmission mechanism, and a fan component 41. The bottom of the inner drum 1 is provided with multiple first flow holes 11, which allow airflow or water flow. In some embodiments, refer to... Figure 1 Multiple first flow holes 11 are located at the bottom of the inner cylinder 1, opposite to the fan component 41, so that when the fan blades of the fan component 41 rotate, more drying airflow from outside the inner cylinder 1 can be delivered into the inner cylinder 1. The inner cylinder 1 also has multiple second flow holes 12 on its wall and / or bottom, which can also allow airflow or water flow. A drive mechanism is connected to the inner cylinder 1 and drives the inner cylinder 1 to rotate. A transmission mechanism is located on the back side of the bottom of the inner cylinder 1, connected to the drive mechanism, and can rotate with the drive mechanism. The transmission mechanism can be directly connected to the drive mechanism or indirectly connected to the drive mechanism through other connecting parts.

[0043] The fan component 41 is connected to the transmission mechanism, and the fan component 41 is coaxially arranged with the inner cylinder 1. The transmission mechanism can drive the fan blades of the fan component 41 to rotate when the drive mechanism drives the inner cylinder 1 to rotate in a preset direction, so that the drying airflow located outside the inner cylinder 1 enters the interior of the inner cylinder 1 through multiple first flow holes 11. The rotation of the inner cylinder 1 in the preset direction is, for example, the forward rotation of the inner cylinder 1. The drying airflow outside the inner cylinder 1 can flow out from the inner cylinder 1 through the second flow hole 12, or it can be directly discharged from the drying air duct of the drying system. Alternatively, a heating device can be installed outside the inner cylinder 1, such as between the shell and the inner cylinder 1, or between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder 1, to heat the airflow between the inner cylinder 1 and the shell, or, in the case of a clothing processing device with an outer cylinder, to heat the air between the inner cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder, thereby generating a drying airflow when the fan blades of the fan component 41 rotate. For example, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 5 The garment processing equipment includes an outer cylinder (not shown in the figure), an inner cylinder 1 is disposed inside the outer cylinder, a fan component 41 is located between the outer cylinder and the inner cylinder 1, and the inner cylinder 1 has a plurality of second flow holes 12 respectively provided on the cylinder wall and / or the bottom of the cylinder, and the hot air in the inner cylinder 1 enters between the inner cylinder 1 and the outer cylinder through the second flow holes 12.

[0044] This embodiment incorporates a fan component 41 coaxial with the inner drum 1. During the rotation of the inner drum 1, a first transmission component 31 located at the bottom of the inner drum 1 drives the fan blades of the fan component 41 to rotate. Drying airflow outside the inner drum 1 enters the interior of the inner drum 1 through multiple first flow holes 11 under the influence of the rotating fan blades of the fan component 41, thus drying the clothes located at the bottom of the inner drum 1. This solves the problems of difficulty in drying clothes at the bottom of the inner drum 1 and poor drying uniformity of clothes inside the inner drum 1. Furthermore, the fan component 41 does not require an additional dedicated motor 21 to drive its blades; instead, the input shaft rotates to drive the fan blades. This reduces the need for a motor 21 and avoids wiring at the bottom of the inner drum 1, thus mitigating the impact of water on the wiring of the fan component 41 when the garment processing equipment has a washing function.

[0045] In some embodiments, such as Figure 6As shown, the drive mechanism includes a motor 21, a first drive shaft 22, and a second drive shaft 23. The first drive shaft 22 is connected to the motor 21, and the second drive shaft 23 is parallel to the first drive shaft 22 and connected to the bottom of the inner cylinder 1. A fan component 41 is mounted on the second drive shaft 23 and can rotate relative to it. This allows for a speed difference between the fan component 41 and the inner cylinder 1 based on the same driving force, satisfying the low-speed requirement for the inner cylinder 1 and the high-speed requirement for the fan component 41 during drying. The transmission mechanism includes a first transmission component 31 and a second transmission component 32. The first transmission component 31 connects the first drive shaft 22 to the fan component 41, and the second transmission component 32 connects the first drive shaft 22 to the second drive shaft 23. The first drive shaft 22 drives the fan blades of the fan component 41 to rotate via the first transmission component 31, and the second drive shaft 22 drives the second drive shaft 23 to rotate via the second transmission component 32. The rotation of the second drive shaft 23 causes the inner cylinder 1 to rotate.

[0046] In one example (not shown in the example figure), the first transmission component 31 includes a first gear and a second gear. The first gear is fixed to the first drive shaft 22, and the second gear is fixed to the second drive shaft 23. The first gear meshes with the second gear, and the radius of the first gear is larger than the radius of the second gear to ensure a higher rotational speed of the fan component 41. Exemplarily, the fan component 41 includes multiple fan blades, which are fixed to the second gear and arranged along the circumferential direction of the second gear. Rotation of the second gear drives the multiple fan blades to rotate.

[0047] And / or, the second transmission component 32 includes a third gear and a fourth gear, the third gear is fixed to the first drive shaft 22, the fourth gear is fixed to the second drive shaft 23, the third gear meshes with the fourth gear, and the radius of the third gear is smaller than the radius of the fourth gear to ensure a lower rotational speed of the inner cylinder 1 during drying.

[0048] In one example, refer to Figure 6 The first transmission component 31 includes a first transmission disc 311, a second transmission disc 312, and a first belt 313. The first transmission disc 311 is fixed to the first drive shaft 22. The second transmission disc 312 is positioned on the second drive shaft 23 opposite to the first transmission disc 311 and is rotatable relative to the second drive shaft 23. The fan blades of the fan component 41 are connected to the second transmission disc 312. Rotation of the second transmission disc 312 drives the fan blades of the fan component 41 to rotate. The two ends of the first belt 313 are respectively wound around the first transmission disc 311 and the second transmission disc 312. The diameter of the first transmission disc 311 is larger than the diameter of the second transmission disc 312 to ensure that the fan blades rotate at a higher speed. For example, the fan component 41 includes multiple fan blades, which are fixed to the second transmission disc 312 and arranged along the circumferential direction of the second transmission disc 312. Rotation of the second transmission disc 312 drives the multiple fan blades to rotate.

[0049] And / or, the second transmission component 32 includes a third transmission disc 321, a fourth transmission disc 322, and a second belt 323. The third transmission disc 321 is fixed to the first drive shaft 22, and the fourth transmission disc 322 is fixed to the second drive shaft 23 at a position opposite to the first transmission disc 311. The two ends of the second belt 323 are respectively wound around the third transmission disc 321 and the fourth transmission disc 322. The diameter of the third transmission disc 321 is smaller than the diameter of the fourth transmission disc 322 to ensure a lower rotational speed of the inner drum 1 during drying.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment, when applied to a clothing processing device with a washing function, the surface of the fan blades of the fan component 41 and the transmission mechanism are treated with anti-corrosion measures to prevent rust and corrosion caused by contact with water during washing.

[0051] In some embodiments, such as Figures 3-5 As shown, the garment processing equipment includes a tripod 5, which is fixed to the back side of the bottom of the inner tube 1. A second drive shaft 23 is fixed to the center of the tripod 5. A fan component 41 is located on the side of the tripod 5 away from the inner tube 1 and is coaxial with the tripod 5. The fan component 41 and the second transmission component 32 are sleeved on the shaft of the tripod 5. The tripod 5 is connected to the inner tube 1 by screws.

[0052] In some embodiments (not shown in the figures of this embodiment), a door seal is provided at the opening of the inner cylinder 1, and the door seal has an air inlet. An air outlet is provided on the wall of the outer cylinder. The clothing processing equipment includes a drying system, which includes a drying air duct. Drying air circulates in the drying air duct and is generated by a heat pump system or by electric heating. The air outlet of the drying air duct is connected to the air inlet, and the air inlet is connected to the air outlet. For clothing processing equipment with the air inlet at the front of the clothing processing equipment, when there are many clothes in the cylinder, the air resistance at the bottom of the inner cylinder 1 is large, resulting in poor heat and moisture exchange between the clothes at the bottom of the inner cylinder 1 and the circulating air. By providing a fan component 41 at the bottom of the inner cylinder 1, the drying airflow outside the inner cylinder 1 acts directly on the clothes at the bottom of the inner cylinder 1 through the first flow hole 11 under the action of the fan component 41, strengthening the turbulence of the air inside the cylinder and improving the drying uniformity of the clothes in the inner cylinder 1.

[0053] This embodiment proposes a drying method for a garment processing device with a drying function. The drying method is used to control any of the garment processing devices proposed in the first aspect of this invention. Figure 7 This is a drying process diagram of a garment processing apparatus according to an exemplary embodiment, with reference to... Figure 7 The drying method includes the following steps:

[0054] S71, control the inner cylinder 1 to operate alternately in both directions at the first speed and the first speed-stop ratio;

[0055] S72. Obtain the outlet temperature and humidity of the clothing;

[0056] S73. 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, control the inner cylinder 1 to operate at the second rotation speed with the second rotation-stop ratio.

[0057] In the first rotation-stop ratio, the preset directional duration of the inner cylinder 1 is the same as the reverse rotation duration; in the second rotation-stop ratio, the preset directional duration of the inner cylinder 1 is greater than the reverse rotation duration; and the second rotation speed is greater than the first rotation speed.

[0058] In this embodiment, during the drying process, the drying system is activated. The drying system can be, for example, a heat pump drying system or an electric heating drying system. The circulating fan of the drying system starts. Temperature and humidity sensors are installed at the air outlet of the washing machine. The temperature sensor detects the outlet air temperature, and the humidity sensor detects the outlet air humidity. Since the rotational power of the inner drum 1 and the fan component 41 both come from the input shaft, the motor 21 on the input shaft rotates clockwise, driving the inner drum 1 to rotate clockwise. At this time, the fan blades of the fan component 41 rotate, generating airflow. When the motor 21 rotates counterclockwise, the fan component 41 produces no airflow. If the inner drum 1 rotates in one direction for a long time, it will cause the clothes inside to tangle and knot, which is not conducive to drying the clothes. Furthermore, in the early stages of drying, the clothes around the inner drum 1 still have a high moisture content, and the system's moisture carrying and dehumidification capacity are already maintained at a high level. At this time, the fan component 41 has limited effect. Therefore, after drying begins, the controller records the outlet air temperature and humidity of the inner drum 1 and compares them with the preset temperature Ts and preset humidity Hs. When the temperature and humidity reach Ts and Hs respectively, it can be considered that the clothes around the inner drum 1 are relatively dry, with a significant difference in moisture level compared to the clothes at the bottom of the inner drum 1. At this time, the fan component 41 plays a more significant role. Before the temperature and humidity reach Ts and Hs, the inner drum 1 operates at a first speed V1 and a first rotation-to-stop ratio R1. V1 can be 30rpm-60rpm. The characteristic of the first rotation-to-stop ratio R1 is that the forward rotation time and the reverse rotation time are equal. During this stage, the fan component 41 operates for a shorter time, mainly ensuring the drying of the clothes around the inner drum 1 and preventing the clothes from knotting or tangling. Once the set temperature and humidity are reached, the inner drum 1 operates at a second speed V2 and a second rotation-to-stop ratio R2. V2 can be 40-80 rpm, and V2 > V1. The characteristic of the second rotation-to-stop ratio R2 is that the forward rotation time is longer than the reverse rotation time, and the reverse rotation time is shorter. During this stage, the fan component 41 operates for a long time to enhance heat exchange of the clothes at the bottom of the inner drum 1. It then continues to operate at the second speed V2 and the second rotation-to-stop ratio R2 until the drying conditions are met and the drying process ends.
