[0002] The existing drainage pump structure includes a drainage motor and a pump body assembly. The drainage motor is provided with an impeller, and the pump body assembly is provided with a drainage chamber and a drainage pipe. The impeller is placed in the drainage chamber. On the one hand, when the drainage pump is fully loaded and there is not much water left in the drainage chamber, that is, when the residual water is discharged in a half-water and half-air (half-load) state, because it is not a vacuum pump, this upper drainage pump with a certain head cannot discharge all the remaining residual water to the outside through the drainage pipe. About one cup of residual water, driven by the high-speed rotation of the impeller, moves in the drainage pipe like a carp jumping over a dragon gate and can never jump over it. The residual water generates a large amount of impact noise in the drainage pipe. On the other hand, in the cavity of the pump body assembly, due to the mixing of water and gas, the air in the cavity of the pump body assembly will generate a loud roaring sound under the drive of the high-speed rotation of the impeller. The impact noise of the residual water in the drainage pipe and the roaring sound of the air in the cavity of the pump body assembly seriously affect the user experience.

[0062] The above-mentioned embodiment 1 is a specific implementation of a noise-reducing washing machine drain pump.
[0063] Embodiment 2:
[0064] A noise reduction method for a washing machine drainage pump, using the noise reduction washing machine drainage pump of the above-mentioned embodiment 1, the noise reduction method comprises the following steps:
[0065] Step 1: Figure 5 and Fig.17 As shown, the drainage pump starts to drain when it is fully loaded, that is, when the water inlet chamber 211 is full of water, Fig.17The direction of the middle arrow is the water inlet direction and the drainage direction. The paths of the full-load water inlet direction and the drainage direction are: the water flows through the water inlet pipe 215, the water inlet chamber 211 connected to the water inlet pipe 215, the edge of the push-pull plate 3102, the water hole 214 and the drainage chamber 212 in sequence. The impeller 13 accommodated in the drainage chamber 212 rotates at a high head speed between 3000 and 3600 revolutions per minute. Under the hydraulic impact in the drainage pipe 218, the bottom surface of the disc 221 on the flexible one-way valve I 22 is forced to leave the support platform 2114 and flip to the outlet 242 of the pipe IV 241 through the arc groove 224. The round table 225 blocks the outlet 242 of the pipe IV 241. At the same time, the outlet of the drainage pipe 218 is opened, and the water flows to the outside through the drainage pipe 24, and the full-load drainage is completed;
[0066] Step 2: Figure 5 and Fig.18 As shown, the impeller 13 stops draining water, the flexible one-way valve I22 falls back to the drain pipe 218, the bottom surface of the disc 221 contacts the support platform 2114, the drain pipe 218 is closed, and the pipe IV 241 is opened. Fig.18 The direction of the middle arrow is the direction of the backflow water. The path of the backflow water in the drainage pipe 24 is: the backflow water passes through the pipe IV 241, the connecting pipe I 25, the pipe II 217 and the water inlet chamber 211 in sequence, and merges with the residual water in the water inlet chamber 211. The water vapor is mixed in the water inlet chamber 211, and the backflow of the residual water in the drainage pipe 24 ends.
[0067] Step 3: Figure 8 , Fig.10 and Fig.19 As shown, the external power supply supplies power to the electromagnetic coil 33 through the power connection terminal II 38, and the reciprocating push-pull motion of the push-pull disk 3102 of the axial plunger type emptying device 3 works between 30 and 60 times per minute, preferably 50 times per minute. Fig.19 The directions of the middle arrows are respectively the direction of movement of the push-pull disk and the direction of exhaust. The push-pull disk 3102 fixed at one end of the plunger 37 moves in the water inlet chamber 211 in an axial reciprocating push-pull motion. The retaining ring 31024 faces the water hole 214, pushing the water in the retaining ring 31024 into the drainage chamber 212 through the water hole 214. The outer push plate 31025 faces the partition 213. The conical surface of the outer push plate 31025 squeezes the gas suspended above the water in the water inlet chamber 211 toward the partition 213. The airflow flows toward the pipe II 217 through the conical surface of the push-pull disk 3102. The flexible one-way valve II 23 is squeezed and closed by the airflow. The path of the exhaust direction is: the gas suspended above the water in the water inlet chamber 211 is discharged along the edge of the push-pull disk 3102 through one side of the baffle 318, pipe II 217, connecting pipe I 25, pipe IV 241 and drainage pipe 24 in sequence, and the exhaust ends.
[0068] Step 4: Fig. 20As shown, the axial plunger type emptying device 3 stops working, and the impeller 13 contained in the drainage chamber 212 rotates at a low head speed between 1000 and 1500 revolutions per minute. Due to insufficient drainage hydraulic force, the flexible one-way valve I 22 closes the drainage pipe 24, and the flexible one-way valve II 23 opens. Fig. 20 The direction of the middle arrow is the inner circulation direction. The path of the inner circulation direction is: the water flows through the drainage chamber 212, the drainage pipe 218, the pipe III 219, the connecting pipe II 26, the opened flexible one-way valve II 23, the water inlet chamber 211 and the water hole 214 in sequence, and then returns to the drainage chamber 212 to form drainage in the inner circulation direction.
[0069] Step 5: Fig.21 As shown, when the drain pump is fully loaded in the next cycle, drainage begins and steps 1 to 4 are repeated.
[0070] In the above steps, the length of the drain pipe 218 can be adjusted according to the actual application. In step 1, the water in the drum of the washing machine continuously supplies water to the water inlet chamber 211 and the drain chamber 212 through the water inlet pipe 215, and the impeller opens the flexible one-way valve I22 at high lift and high speed, and continuously discharges to the outside through the drain pipe 218 and the drain pipe 24. At this time, the drainage noise is relatively soft and stable, and the noise is also relatively low, about 35 decibels to 40 decibels. Therefore, no noise reduction treatment is performed during full load drainage. Step 1 is only an indispensable and important link in the entire noise reduction method; in step 2, at the end of step 1, for the impact noise of the residual water in the drainage pipe in the prior art, this impact noise is about 55 decibels to 60 decibels. Step 2 uses the method of stopping the impeller 13 from draining water, and the flexible one-way valve I22 closes the drain pipe 218. The residual water in the drainage pipe 24 flows back into the water inlet chamber 211, thereby eliminating the impact noise of the residual water in the drainage pipe; in step 3, At the end of step 2, when the impeller in the prior art drains water, the air in the cavity of the pump body assembly will produce a loud roar, which is about 52 decibels to 56 decibels. In order to reduce the noise of the air roar, step 3 uses an axial piston type drainer 3 to discharge the gas suspended above the water in the water inlet chamber 211 to the outside through the drainage pipe 24. Therefore, in step 4, since there is no air in the water inlet chamber 211 and the drainage chamber 212, the impeller opens the flexible one-way valve II 23 at low head and low speed, and the water flows through the connecting pipe II 26 in the internal circulation between the water inlet chamber 211 and the drainage chamber 212 for low-head drainage, thereby eliminating the roar caused by the air in the cavity of the pump body assembly. At this time, the internal circulation low-head drainage noise is about 32 decibels to 36 decibels, which has a significant noise reduction effect compared with the noise of the air roar. In step 5, when the drainage pump is fully loaded in the next cycle, drainage begins, and steps 1 to 4 are repeated to perform noise reduction processing.
