[0050] The cleaning of children's clothes has gradually received people's attention, but the washing drum of a general washing machine is large, which will affect the washing effect of the clothes when washing smaller children's clothes.

[0051] Existing children's washing machines generally only have a washing tub for clothes and cannot be used for shoe washing. If you want to achieve both washing and shoe washing functions, you need to use two motors to control the washing machine and shoe washing machine respectively, driving the two washing tubs, which not only increases the equipment cost but also increases energy consumption.

[0052] In addition to coverings for the torso and limbs, clothing also includes coverings and decorations for the hands: gloves, feet: shoes, sandals, boots, and head: hats.

[0053] Example 1

[0054] Based on this, Figures 1-4 As shown, a clothes treating apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a driving assembly having at least two driving ends;

[0055] At least two inner cylinder assemblies 10 are provided in one-to-one correspondence with at least two driving ends;

[0056] Each inner drum assembly 10 includes a washing tub 3, and each washing tub 3 can be driven or not driven by its corresponding driving end;

[0057] The washing tubs 3 of at least two inner tub assemblies 10 have at least two different washing functions.

[0058] Specifically, the inner drum assembly 10 includes a washing tub 3, which can wash the clothes inside by rotating. The driving assembly includes a driving motor 7 and a corresponding transmission structure. The end of the driving assembly that finally drives the washing tub 3 to rotate is the driving end.

[0059] There are at least two inner drum assemblies 10, so that users can wash children's shoes and clothes and pants separately at the same time, which can reduce the user's washing waiting time and improve the user's experience. In addition, the washing bucket 3 in the inner drum assembly 10 can be rotated under the action of the driving end of the driving assembly, or can be rotated without being affected by the driving end. When the user only needs to use certain washing buckets 3 for washing operations, the other washing buckets 3 can not rotate together, which can avoid the extra washing buckets 3 from idling, and can also reduce the energy consumption of the driving assembly. There is no need to set a corresponding driving assembly for each inner drum assembly 10, and equipment costs can also be saved.

[0060] According to the clothes processing device of the embodiment of the present invention, at least two inner drum assemblies 10 are provided. The two inner drum assemblies 10 can be used for washing clothes and shoes, which is more convenient for users to use. Moreover, the washing tub 3 in each inner drum assembly 10 can rotate under the drive of the driving assembly or can be independent of the driving assembly. Each washing tub 3 can be driven by one driving assembly, and the washing tub 3 that is not working can also not rotate with other washing tubs 3, thereby avoiding idling and reducing the energy consumption of the driving assembly. Driving multiple inner drum assemblies 10 by one driving assembly can not only save equipment costs but also reduce energy consumption.

[0061] In some embodiments, the drive assembly includes: a drive motor 7, a drive belt 8, and a drive pulley 5;

[0062] The number of transmission wheels 5 corresponds to the number of inner cylinder assemblies 10, and the number of transmission belts 8 corresponds to the number of transmission wheels 5. One end of each transmission belt 8 is in transmission cooperation with the drive motor 7, and each transmission wheel 5 is in transmission cooperation with the transmission belt 8.

[0063] The transmission wheel 5 is the driving end.

[0064] Specifically, the driving motor 7 can drive the transmission wheel 5 to rotate through the transmission belt 8. The power output shaft of a driving motor 7 can be coordinated with multiple transmission belts 8, so that one driving motor 7 can drive multiple transmission wheels 5 to rotate. The transmission wheel 5 can be sleeved on a transmission shaft 6. The transmission belt 8 can first be coordinated with a transmission shaft 6, and then the transmission wheel 5 is driven to rotate through the transmission shaft 6. The transmission shaft 6 can adapt to the height difference between the driving motor 7 and the washing tub 3. Each transmission wheel 5 is the driving end of the driving component, and the washing tub 3 can be driven to rotate through the driving end to wash the clothes inside.

[0065] In some embodiments, the inner drum assembly 10 includes: a washing tub 3;

[0066] The washing tub 3 is made of flexible material. A flexible transmission belt 4 is circumferentially provided on the outer wall of the washing tub 3 . The flexible transmission belt 4 can be engaged with or separated from the transmission wheel 5 .

[0067] Specifically, the washing tub 3 is made of a flexible material. When negative pressure is generated inside the washing tub 3, the washing tub 3 can contract to separate the flexible transmission belt 4 from the transmission wheel 5. When the transmission wheel 5 rotates, the washing tub 3 does not rotate with the transmission wheel 5, achieving a technical effect of not being affected by the driving end of the driving component. When there is no negative pressure inside, the washing tub 3 can return to normal, so that the flexible transmission belt 4 can engage with the transmission wheel 5. When the transmission wheel 5 rotates, the washing tub 3 can be driven to rotate together, achieving a technical effect of rotating under the action of the driving end of the driving component.

[0068] In some embodiments, the inner barrel assembly 10 further includes: a water pump 9;

[0069] A sealing cover 2 is provided on the top of the washing tub 3. The top of the sealing cover 2 is connected to a water inlet pipe 11. The bottom of the washing tub 3 is connected to a water outlet pipe 11. A water pump 9 is provided in the water outlet pipe 11.

[0070] The water pump 9 can pump the liquid in the washing tub 3 and provide negative pressure inside the washing tub 3 to cause the washing tub 3 to deform and shrink.

[0071] Specifically, the water pump 9 can pump the liquid in the washing tub 3, assist the washing tub 3 in draining, and discharge the washing liquid out of the washing tub 3 through the water outlet pipe 11. When the corresponding washing tub 3 does not need to rotate, the water pump 9 can be operated to discharge the air inside the washing tub 3. Since the user will cover the sealing cover 2 when starting washing, a closed cavity is formed in the entire washing tub 3. The operation of the water pump 9 to discharge the air inside the washing tub 3 will cause negative pressure to be formed in the washing tub 3. The negative pressure will drive the washing tub 3 made of the flexible material to deform and shrink, and then drive the flexible transmission belt 4 arranged on the outer periphery of the washing tub 3 to move, so that the flexible transmission belt 4 is separated from the transmission wheel 5.

[0072] By utilizing the water pump 9 in the existing equipment, coordinating the structure of the drive component with the washing tub 3 and the flexible transmission wheel 5 made of flexible material, the rotation control of each washing tub 3 can be achieved. There is no need to add a drive motor 7 for each washing tub 3, nor is there any need to add new control equipment. The existing structural equipment is fully utilized, which can effectively save costs.

[0073] In some embodiments, a washing protrusion 15 is provided on the inner wall of the bottom side of the washing tub 3 .

[0074] Specifically, the washing protrusion 15 can be made of rubber material to avoid damaging the clothes being washed. The washing protrusion 15 can be a convex line structure protruding upward at the bottom of the washing tub 3. A plurality of convex points or impeller patterns are set on the top of the convex line structure to improve the washing effect of the clothes.

[0075] In some embodiments, a plurality of kneading ribs 13 are provided on the inner wall of the middle area of ​​the washing tub 3 .

[0076] Specifically, there is a relatively flat plane on the inner wall of the middle area of ​​the washing tub 3, on which a plurality of kneading ribs 13 are arranged. The kneading ribs 13 can extend in the vertical direction and are spaced a certain distance apart from each other. When the washing tub 3 rotates, the kneading ribs 13 can improve the washing effect of the clothes inside.

[0077] In some embodiments, a shoe brush 14 is detachably connected to the bottom of the sealing cover 2 .

[0078] Specifically, the shoe brush 14 has a plurality of bristles arranged on a plate protruding downward, and the bristles can be used to brush the surface of the shoes. The shoe brush 14 is detachably connected to the bottom of the sealing cover 2. When the shoes need to be washed, the shoe brush 14 can be installed on the sealing cover 2 of the corresponding washing bucket 3 to improve the washing effect of the shoes. When clothes need to be washed, the shoe brush 14 can be removed, which makes it more convenient for users to allocate the functions of each washing bucket 3 and make full use of each washing bucket 3.

[0079] In some embodiments, the laundry treatment device includes: an inner housing 16 and an outer housing 17;

[0080] The inner cylinder assembly 10 and the drive assembly are disposed in the inner housing 16 , and the inner housing 16 is drawn and disposed in the outer housing 17 .

[0081] Specifically, the inner drum assembly 10 is arranged in the inner shell 16, and the inner shell 16 is arranged in the outer shell 17, forming a clothing processing device with such a pull-out structure, which can fully and reasonably utilize space, is convenient for users to use, and can also be arranged as a whole in a larger clothing processing device.

[0082] In some embodiments, controlling the washing tub 3 to separate from or drive the driving assembly includes:

[0083] Close the water inlet pipe 11 and start the water pump 9 to shrink the washing tub 3 and separate the flexible transmission belt 4 from the transmission wheel 5;

[0084] Or the water pump 9 does not work, the washing tub 3 is in transmission cooperation with the transmission wheel 5 through the flexible transmission belt 4.

[0085] Specifically, the clothing processing device proposed in the present application is also provided with a weight sensor on each washing tub 3. The weight sensor can detect the weight of the corresponding washing tub 3, and then determine whether there are clothes in the washing tub 3. If there are no clothes in the washing tub 3, the corresponding water pump 9 can be started to cause the water pump 9 to pump air into the washing tub 3, causing the washing tub 3 to deform and be in a deflated state, so that the flexible transmission belt 4 on the outer surface of the washing tub 3 is separated from the transmission wheel 5. When the driving motor 7 drives the other washing tubs 3 to rotate, the washing tub 3 without clothes does not rotate together.

[0086] By automatically identifying the unloaded washing tub 3 and controlling the washing tub 3, the washing tub 3 can be automatically prevented from idling, saving energy consumption. The user does not need to manually rotate the washing tub 3 to determine whether it is rotating, which can improve the intelligence of the clothing processing device and enhance the user experience.

[0087] Example 2

[0088] The present application also provides a method for controlling a clothes processing device, including:

[0089] The information of whether there are clothes in the washing tub 3 is obtained, and the washing tub 3 is controlled to rotate under the action of the driving end of the driving component or not under the action of the driving end of the driving component according to whether there are clothes in the washing tub 3.

[0090] Specifically, when the user closes the sealing cover 2, puts the inner shell 16 into the outer shell 17, and prepares to start washing, the information of whether there are clothes in the washing tub 3 can be automatically obtained, and then the washing tub 3 can be controlled according to whether there are clothes, so that the washing tub 3 with clothes can rotate under the action of the driving end of the driving component, while the washing tub 3 without clothes is not affected by the driving end and does not rotate, which can prevent the washing tub 3 from idling and save energy.

[0091] Among them, at least two inner drum assemblies 10 provided in the clothing processing device can be used for washing clothes and shoes, which is more convenient for users to use. Moreover, the washing bucket 3 in each inner drum assembly 10 can rotate under the drive of the driving assembly, or can be unaffected by the driving assembly. Each washing bucket 3 can be driven by one driving assembly, and the washing bucket 3 that is not working can also not rotate with other washing buckets 3, thereby avoiding idling and reducing the energy consumption of the driving assembly.

[0092] In some embodiments, whether there are clothes in the washing tub 3 includes:

[0093] The weight of the washing tub 3 is obtained, and whether there are clothes in the washing tub 3 is determined according to the weight of the washing tub 3 .

[0094] Specifically, the weight of the washing tub 3 can be detected by a gravity sensor. When clothes are put into the washing tub 3, the overall weight of the washing tub 3 will change. The weight change of the washing tub 3 can be used to determine whether there are clothes in the washing tub 3.

[0095] In some embodiments, controlling the washing tub 3 to rotate under the action of the driving end of the driving assembly includes:

[0096] The transmission wheel 5 of the driving assembly is in driving cooperation with the flexible transmission belt 4 of the washing tub 3 .

[0097] In some embodiments, controlling the washing tub 3 to be free from the driving end of the driving assembly includes:

[0098] The water pump 9 is controlled to operate, providing negative pressure inside the washing tub 3, causing the washing tub 3 to shrink, and the flexible transmission belt 4 to separate from the transmission wheel 5 of the drive assembly.

[0099] Specifically, the shape of the washing tub 3 can be controlled by controlling the water pump 9. Before washing begins, if there are clothes in the washing tub 3, the water pump 9 does not work, the flexible transmission belt 4 of the washing tub 3 is engaged with the transmission wheel 5 of the drive assembly, and the washing tub 3 rotates with the transmission wheel 5. If there are no clothes in the washing tub 3, the water pump 9 works to extract the air in the washing tub 3. The washing tub 3 is deformed by the negative pressure and is in a deflated state. The flexible transmission belt 4 of the washing tub 3 is separated from the transmission wheel 5, and the washing tub 3 is not affected by the drive assembly and does not rotate.
