Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of washing equipment accessories, and in particular relates to a laundry bead delivery structure and a washing equipment thereof. Background Art

[0002] As a household appliance for conveniently washing clothes, washing equipment is used by more and more people due to its convenient performance. Generally, washing equipment includes a housing, an inner barrel and an outer barrel arranged in the housing, and a motor driving the inner barrel to rotate. A detergent delivery box is arranged on the housing and connected to the outer barrel through a hose. When water is inletted, the water flow flushes the additives in the detergent delivery box into the outer barrel through the hose to wash the clothes.

[0003] Nowadays, there is a kind of laundry beads, which contain a quantity of laundry detergent for one wash. When using the laundry beads, you only need to put them into the washing machine. The laundry beads will mix and dissolve with the water entering the outer barrel of the washing machine. After dissolution, the laundry detergent will flow out of the laundry beads and be used to wash clothes.

[0004] A Chinese patent application with application number 201610189148.3 discloses a dispenser box for a washing machine, a washing machine and a method for dispensing, including a box body of a dispenser box for the washing machine, at least one propeller arranged in the box body, and a driving device for driving the propeller to move. The dispenser box is used for automatically dispensing condensed beads, a dispensing port is arranged on the box body, the propeller is a spiral, the maximum size of the condensed beads is larger than the cross-sectional inner diameter of the spiral, a concave guide rail matching the propeller is provided in the box body, the axis of the concave guide rail coincides with the axis of the spiral, and a space for accommodating the condensed beads is provided in the spiral.

[0005] In the above scheme, the propeller is driven by the driving device to move, and the heat-input propeller pushes the laundry beads to the delivery port on the box body, and the laundry beads fall from the delivery port and contact the water inlet, and the laundry liquid in the laundry beads dissolves in the water and is used to wash clothes, thereby avoiding the trouble of manually adding the laundry beads every time washing clothes, forgetting to add the laundry beads, and not being able to add the laundry beads during the washing process. However, it is also easy for the laundry beads to get stuck in the gap and not melt, and even after the laundry beads melt, the concentration of laundry liquid in the local area of ​​the clothes is high.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the present invention but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0039] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the directions or positional relationships indicated by terms such as “upper”, “lower”, “front”, “back”, “left”, “right”, “vertical”, “inside” and “outside” are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0040] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, an embodiment of the present invention introduces a laundry bead delivery structure, including a box body 1, wherein the box body 1 is provided with a first outlet 18, and also includes a delivery pipe 21 arranged outside the box body 1 and a connecting pipe 23 connecting the first outlet 18 and the delivery pipe 21, wherein water enters one end of the delivery pipe 21 and discharges water at the other end, and a bead rupture structure is provided on the connecting pipe 23, and the bead rupture structure is used to rupture the laundry beads to release laundry detergent, and the laundry detergent is mixed with the incoming water to form a mixed liquid with uniform concentration, thereby preventing the laundry beads from being stuck in the gap and not melting, and the mixed liquid formed by the laundry detergent released by the ruptured laundry beads and the incoming water with uneven concentration, thereby preventing the phenomenon of high concentration of the mixed liquid in some parts of the laundry to be washed.

[0042] In an embodiment of the present invention, the laundry beads delivery structure further includes a force providing unit, which is used to provide a force to drive the laundry beads to move from the first outlet 18 toward the delivery pipeline 21; the force providing unit includes a Venturi tube, which is arranged in the delivery pipeline 21, and the negative pressure chamber formed is connected to the connecting pipeline 23, and / or the force providing unit includes a water inlet pipe, which is connected to the box body 1, and is used to provide water inlet impact to move the laundry beads from the first outlet 18 to the delivery pipeline 21; and / or the force providing unit includes an air inlet pipe, which is connected to the box body 1, and is used to provide air inlet impact to move the laundry beads from the first outlet 18 to the delivery pipeline 21.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present invention, taking the example that the force providing unit includes a venturi tube, which is arranged in the delivery pipeline 21, and the formed negative pressure chamber is connected to the connecting pipeline 23, one end of the connecting pipeline 23 is connected to the first outlet 18, and the other end is connected to the negative pressure chamber (the position where the diameter of the venturi tube changes). When the incoming water moves to the negative pressure chamber through the inside of the venturi tube, according to Bernoulli's theorem (p+1 / 2ρv2+ρgh=C, C is a constant and unchanged), it can be known that in a fluid system, in the flow of the fluid ignoring the viscosity loss, the sum of the pressure potential energy, kinetic energy and potential energy of any two points on the streamline remains unchanged. During the movement of the incoming water, the height h of the Venturi tube remains unchanged, the gravitational potential energy remains unchanged, and the diameter of the tube at the negative pressure chamber of the Venturi tube becomes smaller, thereby increasing the flow rate v of the incoming water. Therefore, the pressure p at this position decreases, and negative pressure will be generated in the connecting pipe 23 connected to the negative pressure chamber, which will produce an adsorption force on the laundry beads. Under the combined effect of gravity and negative pressure, the laundry beads tend to move toward the water flow direction of the Venturi tube. During the movement, they interact with the bead rupture structure provided on the connecting pipe 23, and the laundry beads are cut by the bead rupture structure to release the laundry liquid, which is mixed with the incoming water to form a mixed liquid with uniform concentration.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present invention, the condensate bead breaking structure includes at least one blade rib 22 having a cutting edge for cutting the laundry condensate beads, and the blade ribs 22 are evenly arranged on the inner peripheral wall of the connecting pipe 23 .

[0045] Furthermore, the surface of each blade rib 22 can be provided with upwardly protruding thorns, and the laundry beads are pierced by the thorns provided on the surface of the blade rib 22 to release the laundry liquid. The edge of each blade rib 22 can also be a blade, and the laundry beads are cut by the blade to release the laundry liquid.

[0046] A plurality of protrusions are also installed on the periphery of the connecting pipeline 23, and the protrusions are distributed on both sides of the connecting pipeline 23. The protrusions are used to fix the blade rib 22 in the connecting pipeline 23 on the one hand, and to fix the two ends of the connecting pipeline 23 to the first outlet 18 and the delivery pipeline 21 respectively on the other hand.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present invention, a preset gap is left between the blade ribs 22, and the preset gap is smaller than the size of the laundry beads, so as to prevent the laundry beads from passing through the preset gap without contacting the blade ribs 22 during movement in the connecting pipe 23, and thus being unable to be cut by the blade ribs 22 to release the laundry liquid. The laundry beads of the present invention are spherical, and may also be in other shapes, not limited to spherical.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present invention, the blade ribs 22 are distributed at intervals along the circumferential direction on the inner wall of the passage, and the edge formed by the edge of each blade rib 22 extends along the delivery direction of the connecting pipe 23. The end of each blade rib 22 facing the first outlet 18 extends from the inner wall of the passage toward the center and away from the first outlet 18, so that the surface where the end of each blade rib 22 is located constitutes a trumpet-shaped structure, which can play a role in guiding the laundry beads to fall, and the inner diameter of the end of each blade rib 22 gradually decreases along the delivery direction, and the inner diameter of the opening farthest from the first outlet 18 is preferably smaller than the diameter of the beads, which greatly increases the probability of the laundry beads being scratched.
