[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of washing equipment, and in particular provides a washing equipment water stirring component and a washing equipment. Background Art

[0002] As a convenient clothes washing device, washing machines have been widely used in people's lives. Existing washing machines are divided into drum washing machines and pulsator washing machines. Among them, pulsator washing machines are popular among users because of their better cleaning effect.

[0003] A pulsator washing machine usually includes a washing tub and a pulsator, with the pulsator being located at the bottom of the washing tub. When the pulsator washing machine is working, the rotation of the pulsator drives the washing water in the tub to rotate, thereby washing the clothes to be washed in the tub. Existing pulsators are usually flat, circular pulsators. During washing, impurities such as dirt and lint on the clothes are easily accumulated in the gap between the bottom surface of the pulsator and the tub, and cannot be effectively cleaned by simply flushing. In addition, dirt and lint are prone to breed bacteria when left in a humid environment for a long time, which brings a bad user experience. If you want to clean it thoroughly, you need to remove the pulsator and scrub the dirt in the gap. This operation is relatively complicated, which further deteriorates the user experience. Therefore, how to prevent dirt and grime from accumulating between the pulsator and the tub has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in this field.

[0004] Accordingly, the art requires a new water stirring component in the inner barrel of a washing device to solve the above-mentioned problems in the prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention aims to solve the above technical problem, that is, to solve the problem that the gap between the impeller and the inner barrel of the existing impeller washing machine is easy to accumulate dirt and is inconvenient to clean.

[0006] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a water stirring member for a washing device, the washing device comprising an inner barrel, the water stirring member being rotatably arranged on the bottom surface of the inner barrel, the side surface of the water stirring member being arranged so that as the height of the rotating shaft increases, the distance between the side surface of the water stirring member and the inner wall of the inner barrel remains constant or changes gradually or stepwise, and a water stirring portion is provided on the side surface of the water stirring member.

[0007] In a specific embodiment of the water-stirring member of the washing device, the water-stirring member is in a shape that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom, and the side surface of the water-stirring member in the height direction is a straight surface or a curved surface.

[0008] In a specific embodiment of the water-stirring member of the washing device, the direction of the water-stirring portion is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the water-stirring member, or has an inclined angle with the rotation direction of the water-stirring member.

[0009] In a specific embodiment of the water-stirring member of the washing device, an arc-shaped protrusion is provided on the top of the water-stirring member.

[0010] In a specific embodiment of the water stirring member of the washing equipment, the end of the water stirring portion away from the rotating shaft is an arc surface, and the water stirring portions are provided in multiple groups and are evenly distributed on the side surface of the water stirring member.

[0011] In a specific embodiment of the water-stirring member of the washing device, the water-stirring member is detachably connected to the inner tub.

[0012] The present invention also provides a washing device, which includes the washing device water stirring component described in any one of the above technical solutions.

[0013] In a specific embodiment of the above-mentioned washing device, the washing device further includes a driving device, the inner tub and the water stirring member are connected to the driving device, and a clutch is provided at the output end of the driving device for driving the inner tub and the water stirring member to rotate respectively.

[0014] In a specific embodiment of the above-mentioned washing device, the bottom surface of the inner barrel is an upwardly protruding cone, and a strip-shaped protrusion is provided on the bottom surface of the inner barrel. The direction of the strip-shaped protrusion is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the water stirring component, or has an inclined angle with the rotation direction of the water stirring component.

[0015] In a specific embodiment of the above washing device, a washing protrusion is provided on the side wall of the inner barrel.

[0016] When the above technical solution is adopted, the side of the water-stirring member of the washing device of the present invention is configured so that as the height of the rotating shaft increases, the distance between the side of the water-stirring member and the inner wall of the inner barrel remains constant or gradually decreases, that is, the water-stirring member is configured to be cylindrical or conical. In this way, during the operation of the washing device of the present invention, since the space between the water-stirring member and the bottom of the inner barrel is large, impurities such as lint that fall from the clothes will not accumulate even if they flow with the water between the water-stirring member and the bottom of the inner barrel, and the washing effect can be improved at the same time. After washing is completed, the lint can be washed away by drainage, which also facilitates the cleaning of the lint, thereby solving the problem that dirt and grime are easily hidden in the gap between the impeller and the inner barrel of the existing impeller washing machine and are inconvenient to clean, thereby improving the user experience.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on specific circumstances.

[0038] See first Figure 4 , the structure of the existing washing machine 2 is described.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, the existing washing machine 2 usually includes a washing inner tub 21 and a pulsator 22, and the pulsator 22 is arranged at the bottom of the washing inner tub 21. When the existing washing machine 2 is working, the rotation of the pulsator 22 drives the washing water in the inner tub to rotate, thereby washing the clothes to be washed in the inner tub. The existing pulsator 22 is usually a flat circular pulsator 22. When washing, impurities such as lint on the clothes are easily accumulated in the gap between the bottom surface of the pulsator 22 and the inner tub after falling off. Since the space in the gap is relatively narrow and inconvenient for users to operate, users usually need to remove the pulsator 22 to clean the dirt in the gap. When removing, the user needs to put the body into the inner tub, which is complicated to operate and requires regular cleaning. Once the user forgets to clean, the dirt will be easily bred in a humid environment for a long time, which undoubtedly brings a bad user experience.

[0040] In order to solve the problem that the gap between the impeller and the inner barrel of the existing impeller washing machine is easy to accumulate dirt and is inconvenient to clean, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the washing device 1 of the present invention comprises:

[0041] The inner barrel assembly 11 of the washing machine 1 includes an inner barrel 111 and a water stirring member 112. The inner barrel 111 is used to hold clothes to be washed and washing water. The water stirring member 112 is in the shape of an inverted cone and is rotatably arranged on the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111. The side surface of the conical water stirring member 112 in the height direction is a curved surface, and an inclination angle is formed between the side surface of the water stirring member 112 and the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111. As the height of the rotating shaft 1123 increases, the distance between the side surface of the water stirring member 112 and the side wall of the inner barrel 111 gradually decreases, while the distance between the side surface of the water stirring member 112 and the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111 gradually increases. A water stirring rib (not shown in the figure) is provided on the side surface of the water stirring member 112. The direction of the water stirring rib is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the water stirring member 112 and is used to stir the washing water on the side surface of the water stirring member 112 in the inner barrel 111.

[0042] The drive device 12 is disposed outside the inner tub 111 and includes a drive motor (not shown) and a drive output shaft (not shown). One end of the drive output shaft is connected to the drive motor, and the other end is connected to the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112. A clutch (not shown) is provided on the drive output shaft to control the connection between the drive output shaft and the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112, respectively, thereby controlling the rotation of the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112.

[0043] The outer barrel 14 is arranged on the outside of the inner barrel 111 to protect the inner barrel 111. A driving force transmission hole (not shown in the figure) is provided at the bottom of the outer barrel 14 for passing the driving force output shaft.

[0044] The outer shell 13 is arranged at the outermost side and plays a role of protecting and supporting the internal components of the washing device 1 . The driving device 12 is fixedly arranged on the outer shell 13 .

[0045] Through the above structure, during the use of the washing device 1 of the present invention, the driving device 12 transmits power to the inner barrel 111 and the water stirring member 112 through the driving force output shaft, driving the inner barrel 111 and the water stirring member 112 to rotate to wash the clothes to be washed in the barrel. When washing clothes with a lot of lint or dust, due to their greater density than water, impurities such as lint and dust (hereinafter collectively referred to as impurities) will gradually sink under the flushing of the washing water. The sunken impurities will accumulate in the space between the side of the water stirring member 112 and the bottom of the inner barrel 111. However, since the water stirring member 112 is configured as an inverted cone, an inclination angle is formed between the side of the water stirring member 112 and the bottom of the inner barrel 111, and as the distance from the rotating shaft 1123 increases, the distance between the side of the water stirring member 112 and the bottom of the inner barrel 111 also gradually increases. Therefore, even if impurities accumulate here, they will not be hidden in the gap between the impeller and the inner tub 111 like in the pulsator washing machines of the prior art, but will be exposed to the high-speed flowing washing water in the inner tub 111. In this way, the impurities will follow the washing water and rotate in the space formed between the water stirring member 112 and the inner tub 111. When draining after washing is completed, the washing water can flow out of the drainage channel of the washing device 1 with the impurities. To put it another way, even if the washing water cannot bring out all the accumulated impurities during the drainage process, the user only needs to pour a small amount of clean water into the inner tub 111 to clean the remaining impurities. Compared with the prior art that requires the removal of the impeller, it is more convenient and quicker, and solves the problem that the gap between the impeller and the inner tub 111 of the existing pulsator washing machine is easy to hide dirt and grime, which is inconvenient to clean.

[0046] It is also worth mentioning that, in this embodiment, the water stirring ribs of the water stirring member 112 are arranged on the side, that is, in the area between the water stirring member 112 and the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111. In this way, during the washing or rinsing process, the water stirring ribs can stir the area between the water stirring member 112 and the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111 (that is, the area where impurities accumulate) more vigorously, preventing impurities from accumulating at the connection between the rotating shaft 1123 of the water stirring member 112 and the inner barrel 111, thereby further ensuring that when the washing device 1 is drained, the impurities can be carried away by the washing water. In addition, although the above description uses the water stirring ribs 1121 as an example, the water stirring portion 1121 of the present invention can also be a water stirring protrusion, a press-type structure, etc., and these changes are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0047] In addition, those skilled in the art will understand that, although not mentioned above, in order to prevent impurities generated by clothes during the washing process from clogging the drainage channel, those skilled in the art can set a filter and an impurity collection tank in the drainage channel of the washing device 1 to intercept and collect the discharged impurities.

[0048] In addition, the above description of the water-stirring member 112 is merely an example. Those skilled in the art may also configure the water-stirring member 112 to be cylindrical, so that the distance between the side of the water-stirring member 112 and the inner wall of the inner tub 111 remains constant, and the water-stirring ribs are provided on the side walls of the water-stirring member 112. In this way, as the water-stirring member 112 rotates, the water-stirring ribs on the side walls can stir impurities between the side of the water-stirring member 112 and the inner wall of the inner tub 111, preventing them from accumulating there. As a result, when the washing water is drained after washing is completed, the washing water can carry the impurities with it and flow out of the drainage channel of the washing device 1. These modifications are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0049] In addition, regarding the aforementioned driving device 12, those skilled in the art will understand that although the above description simply mentions that the driving device 12 transmits power to the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112 via the driving force output shaft, thereby driving the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112 to rotate to wash the laundry in the tub, this is not the only embodiment. Those skilled in the art can also control the clutch to achieve separate driving of the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112. For example, the water stirring member 112 or the inner tub 111 can be controlled to rotate alone to provide a lower washing intensity for washing softer laundry; or the water stirring member 112 and the inner tub 111 can be controlled to rotate in opposite directions to achieve high-intensity washing. At the same time, the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112 can also be controlled to rotate forward or reverse to rub the laundry to improve the washing effect. These changes do not exceed the technical principles of the present invention and are therefore included in the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0050] like Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, regarding the shape of the water-stirring member 112, although it is mentioned above that the water-stirring member 112 is an inverted cone, and the side of the cone-shaped water-stirring member 112 is a curved surface in the height direction, this is not a limitation on the shape of the water-stirring member 112. Those skilled in the art can also set the water-stirring member 112 to other shapes, for example, the water-stirring member 112 can be set to a mushroom shape, or the side of the water-stirring member 112 can be set to a straight surface, as long as the distance between the side of the water-stirring member 112 and the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111 gradually increases with the distance from the rotation axis 1123. Similarly, the direction of the water-stirring rib 1121 does not necessarily have to be perpendicular to the rotation direction of the water-stirring member 112. This is only a preferred embodiment. Those skilled in the art can also set the direction of the water-stirring rib 1121 to have a certain inclination angle with the rotation direction of the water-stirring member 112, as long as the water-stirring effect can be achieved. These simple changes do not exceed the technical principles of the present invention and are therefore included in the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0051] In a possible embodiment, the inner tub 111 and the water stirring member 112 are detachably connected.

[0052] As mentioned above, increasing the distance between the water-stirring member 112 and the inner tub 111 makes it easier to clean impurities within the washing machine 1. However, in some special cases, such as when lint is long and entangled around the rotating shaft 1123 of the water-stirring member 112, flushing alone may not completely remove all impurities. Therefore, in this embodiment, the water-stirring member 112 is detachably mounted on the inner tub 111. This allows the user to remove the water-stirring member 112 from the inner tub 111 and then clean the impurities, thereby completely removing the impurities. Furthermore, making the water-stirring member 112 detachable also facilitates repair or replacement of the water-stirring member 112 in the event of a malfunction, making it more convenient for maintenance personnel.

[0053] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, in a possible embodiment, a strip-shaped protrusion 1111 is further provided on the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111 , and the direction of the strip-shaped protrusion 1111 is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the water stirring member 112 .

[0054] In order to further enhance the washing effect of the washing device 1 of the present invention, in this embodiment, strip-shaped protrusions 1111 are provided on the bottom surface of the inner tub 111. During the rotation of the water-stirring member 112, the water-stirring ribs 1121 on the side of the water-stirring member 112 drive the washing water between the water-stirring member 112 and the bottom surface of the inner tub 111 to rotate, thereby driving the laundry to be washed to rotate together. During the rotation process, the laundry to be washed collides and rubs against the strip-shaped protrusions 1111 on the bottom surface of the inner tub 111, thereby enhancing the washing effect of the laundry to be washed.

[0055] In addition, those skilled in the art will understand that arranging the strip-shaped protrusions 1111 perpendicular to the rotation direction of the water-stirring member 112 is only a preferred embodiment. This embodiment can increase the friction intensity between the laundry and the strip-shaped protrusions 1111, thereby improving the washing effect. However, this is not the only embodiment of the strip-shaped protrusions 1111. Those skilled in the art can also arrange the strip-shaped protrusions 1111 to have a certain inclination angle with the rotation direction of the water-stirring member 112, or can also arrange the strip-shaped protrusions 1111 to be curved, as long as the laundry can generate friction and collision with the strip-shaped protrusions 1111 during rotation. In addition, the specific shape and number of the strip-shaped protrusions 1111 are not specifically limited in this embodiment and can be square, triangular, or semi-cylindrical. To prevent the strip-shaped protrusions 1111 from scratching the laundry, semi-cylindrical strip-shaped protrusions 1111 are preferably used. The number of strip-shaped protrusions 1111 can also be adjusted according to the needs during actual use. These changes do not exceed the technical principles of the present invention and are therefore included in the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0056] Refer to the following Figure 3 , the second embodiment of the washing device 1 of the present invention is introduced. Figure 3 Schematic diagram of the structure of the second embodiment of the washing device 1 of the present invention.

[0057] like Figure 3 As shown, in a possible embodiment, an upwardly protruding cone is provided on the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111 .

[0058] Unlike the first embodiment described above, this embodiment utilizes an upwardly protruding tapered shape on the bottom of the inner tub 111 to achieve an increase in the distance between the water stirring member 112 and the bottom of the inner tub 111 as the distance from the rotating shaft 1123 increases. Thus, those skilled in the art can agitate the wash water between the water stirring member 112 and the bottom of the inner tub 111 by providing water stirring ribs 1121 on the side of the water stirring member 112. Consequently, during the washing process, impurities that fall from the clothes settle in the area between the tapered protrusion on the bottom of the inner tub 111 and the sidewall of the inner tub 111, and are then drained into the drainage channel along with the wash water. Furthermore, due to the protruding bottom of the inner tub 111, the connection between the rotating shaft 1123 of the water stirring member 112 and the inner tub 111 is also upwardly protruding, preventing impurities from settling on the rotating shaft 1123 of the water stirring member 112 or even becoming entangled with it.

[0059] In addition, those skilled in the art can also provide an upwardly protruding trapezoid on the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111, or other common shapes with a small top and a large bottom. These changes do not exceed the technical principles of the present invention and are therefore included in the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0060] Furthermore, those skilled in the art can also provide a raised structure on the raised conical side of the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111 to increase the friction between the inner barrel 111 and the clothes to be washed. The technical effect of the raised structure here is similar to the technical effect of the strip-shaped raised structure 1111 mentioned above, and will not be repeated here.

[0061] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, in a possible embodiment, an arc-shaped protrusion 1122 is provided on the top of the water stirring member 112 , and a washing protrusion 1112 is provided on the side wall of the inner tub 111 .

[0062] Depend on Figure 1 、 Figure 2 It can be seen that the water-stirring member 112 of the present invention substantially divides the inner tub 111 into two washing areas, upper and lower. Setting the top of the water-stirring member 112 as an arc-shaped protrusion 1122 can make the top of the water-stirring member 112 smoother, thereby preventing the clothes to be washed from being hung on the water-stirring member 112. In addition, as mentioned above, the washing device 1 of the present invention can drive the inner tub 111 and the water-stirring member 112 to rotate respectively to wash the clothes to be washed. Therefore, in this embodiment, washing protrusions 1112 are provided on the side walls of the inner tub 111. In this way, when designing the washing device 1, those skilled in the art can adjust the washing intensity of the inner tub 111 by adjusting the number of washing protrusions 1112 on the side walls of the inner tub 111, thereby making the washing intensity of the washing device 1 more in line with expectations, and also designing washing devices 1 with different washing intensities. Furthermore, in order to improve the washing effect of the washing device 1 of the present invention, technicians in this field can also set water stirring ribs on the arc-shaped protrusion 1122 to stir the washing water in the washing area above the water stirring component. These simple changes do not exceed the technical principles of the present invention.

[0063] In a possible embodiment, multiple groups of water-stirring ribs 1121 are provided, and the multiple groups of water-stirring ribs 1121 are evenly distributed on the side surface of the water-stirring component 112 , and the end of the water-stirring rib 1121 away from the rotation axis 1123 is an arc surface.

[0064] In the case of adopting the above embodiment, by providing multiple groups of water-stirring ribs 1121 on the water-stirring member 112 and evenly distributing them on the side surfaces of the water-stirring member 112, the water-stirring intensity of the water-stirring member 112 can be increased, and the water-stirring member 112 can rotate more evenly when stirring the water, thereby improving the washing effect of the washing device 1. In addition, the aforementioned curved surface at the end of the water-stirring rib 1121 away from the rotation axis 1123 is intended to prevent clothing from getting caught on the water-stirring rib 1121 or even being scratched during the stirring process. Based on this technical principle, those skilled in the art can also configure the water-stirring rib 1121 to have other common smooth shapes, and these changes do not exceed the technical principles of the present invention.

[0065] In summary, the inner barrel assembly 11 of the washing machine 1 of the present invention provides a larger space between the water stirring member 112 and the bottom surface of the inner barrel 111 by configuring the water stirring member 112 to be an inverted cone or an upright mushroom shape. This space gradually increases as the distance from the rotating shaft 1123 increases, thereby reducing the probability of impurities accumulating between the water stirring member 112 and the inner barrel 111, and also reducing the difficulty of cleaning the impurities accumulated between the water stirring member 112 and the inner barrel 111. By configuring the water stirring ribs 1121 on the side of the water stirring member 112, the agitation intensity of the washing water between the water stirring member 112 and the inner barrel 111 is enhanced, which is more conducive to the removal of impurities. The inner barrel assembly 11 of the washing machine 1 of the present invention is simple to use and has a significant effect in preventing dirt and grime from accumulating between the water stirring member 122 and the inner barrel 111, thereby solving the problem of dirt and grime easily accumulating in the gap between the impeller and the inner barrel of the existing pulsator washing machine, which is inconvenient to clean.

[0066] It should be noted that the above-mentioned embodiments are only used to illustrate the principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art can adjust the above-mentioned structure so that the present invention can be applied to more specific application scenarios.

[0067] Finally, it should be noted that although the present invention is described using a washing machine as an example, the inner tub assembly 11 of the washing device 1 of the present invention can obviously also be applied to other washing devices 1 having an inner tub 111. For example, the inner tub assembly 11 of the present invention can also be applied to a shoe washing machine, etc.

[0068] Thus far, the technical solutions of the present invention have been described in conjunction with the preferred embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. However, it will be readily understood by those skilled in the art that the scope of protection of the present invention is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. Without departing from the principles of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make equivalent changes or substitutions to the relevant technical features, and the technical solutions after such changes or substitutions will fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
