[0003] However, in daily use, washing machines are usually used to wash different clothes for different users. The cross-infection between different clothes makes many users have concerns about the safety of washing machines. In order to avoid cross-infection between different clothes, some users separate different clothes and wash them multiple times. Although this can avoid cross-infection between clothes to a certain extent, there may still be more bacteria in the washing barrel modules that have been in contact with different clothes, and cross-infection cannot be fundamentally avoided. Some users also choose to buy multiple washing machines for classified washing. Although this can solve the problem of cross-infection, it also greatly increases the cost of washing.

The valve core has a first position for closing the valve body water channel and a second position for opening the valve body water channel.

[0104] In this embodiment, the drain valve 35 is arranged at one end of the drain port 33 away from the inner side of the barrel structure 3. The upper end of the valve body water channel of the drain valve 35 is connected with the interior of the barrel structure 3 through the drain port 33. A return spring is provided between the valve core and the drain port 33 to push the valve core to move downward to block the lower end of the valve body water channel.

[0105] A drainage opening assembly for driving the drainage valve 35 to open is disposed at the bottom of the fixed housing 1 .

[0106] In this embodiment, the drainage opening assembly includes a push rod 12, which extends vertically upward and corresponds to the valve core of the drainage valve 35, and a water outlet hole extending along the axial direction of the push rod 12 is provided in the middle of the push rod 12. When the barrel structure 3 is installed, the push rod 12 is inserted into the drainage valve 35, the peripheral side of the push rod 12 is sealed and engaged with the lower end inner wall of the valve body water channel, and the water outlet hole of the push rod 12 is connected with the valve body water channel.

[0107] Specifically, the bottom of the valve core of the drain valve 35 is provided with support blocks protruding downward and arranged circumferentially. Preferably, the support blocks are provided with at least three blocks arranged circumferentially. The push rod 12 is coaxial with the valve core, and the push rod abuts against the bottom of the support block to push the valve core upward as a whole, and the washing water enters the water outlet of the push rod 12 from the gap between adjacent support blocks.

[0108] Preferably, in this embodiment, the push rod 12 can also be configured to be axially telescopic. The stepper motor is installed below the accommodating cavity and is transmission-connected to the push rod 12. Specifically, the working end of the stepper electrode is arranged perpendicular to the push rod 12, and a crank block is installed on the working end of the stepper motor, and an eccentric shaft is arranged on the crank block, and the eccentric shaft is rotationally connected to the end of the push rod 12.

[0109] The crank block is a cylindrical structure, and the eccentric shaft is set at a position on the crank block that deviates from the central axis. When the stepper motor drives the crank block to rotate, the eccentric shaft performs eccentric rotational motion, and at the same time, the eccentric shaft and the push rod 12 rotate in coordination, thereby converting the eccentric motion of the eccentric shaft into linear motion of the push rod 12. The push rod 12 drives the valve core to move in the valve body to realize the opening and closing of the drain valve 35.

[0110] In this embodiment, the lower end of the push rod 12 is connected to the drainage pipeline. Specifically, the lower end of the water outlet of the push rod 12 is connected to the drainage pipeline through a telescopic tube, and the telescopic tube provides a margin for the axial reciprocating movement of the push rod 12.

[0111] A drainage pump or a negative pressure component is provided between the push rod 12 and the drainage pipeline, and the water and air in the barrel structure 3 are sucked by the drainage pump or the negative pressure component, so that the barrel wall of the barrel structure 3 shrinks, and the clothes in the barrel structure 3 are squeezed to achieve squeezing and dehydration. The pleated portion 31 provides a deformation margin for the shrinkage of the barrel wall.

[0112] In this embodiment, the negative pressure component includes a temporary storage chamber and an air pump. The temporary storage chamber is connected to the drain port 33. The input end of the air pump is connected to the temporary storage chamber from the top of the temporary storage chamber, and the output end of the air pump is connected to the external atmosphere. The drainage pipeline of the washing machine is connected to the temporary storage chamber from the bottom of the temporary storage chamber, and a one-way valve is arranged on the drainage pipeline of the washing machine.

[0113] Thus, when the air pump is running, the air in the temporary storage chamber can be pumped out, so that negative pressure is formed in the temporary storage chamber, thereby pumping out the water and air in the barrel structure 3. After the water and air in the barrel structure 3 enter the temporary storage chamber, the water and air are separated, the water is temporarily stored at the bottom of the temporary storage chamber, and the air rises to the top of the temporary storage chamber and is pumped out by the air pump. When the air pump stops running, the water in the temporary storage chamber is discharged from the drainage pipeline.

The first flow guide is sleeved at the bottom of the push rod 12. The working end of the stepper motor is transmission-connected to the flow guide structure. The second flow guide is connected to the drain pipe of the clothing processing device through a telescopic tube.

[0119] In this embodiment, if the negative pressure component is arranged inside the shell of the clothing processing equipment, then the negative pressure component is arranged between the drainage pipe and the second guide port. If the negative pressure component is arranged outside the shell of the clothing processing equipment, then the negative pressure component is arranged in connection with the drainage pipe, and the water and air in the barrel structure are sucked through the drainage pipe.
