However, washing machines will generate lint and debris when washing clothes. In order to solve this problem, a lint collection device is usually installed inside the washing machine to collect the lint and debris generated during the washing process. However, the existing filter is attached to the hollow area of the bracket, and the filter has a small water permeable area. The lint can block the filter in a short time, causing the collector to fail. As a result, the lint in the lint collection device returns to the washing machine, resulting in poor washing effect of the washing machine.
[0003] The Chinese patent application number 202221577982.7 discloses a lint collection device and a washing machine, wherein the lint collection device includes a fixed frame, a mesh bag and a check element, wherein the fixed frame is provided with a groove; the mesh bag is arranged in the groove and sleeved with the check element; the check element includes an end and an openable and closable elastic clamping nozzle connected to the end, and the end is provided with a water inlet for water intake connected to the mesh bag. Although the present application provides a check element to prevent the lint in the mesh bag from flowing back, no installation position detection device is provided, and it is impossible to ensure that the lint collection device can be correctly installed in the washing machine.
[0004] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0043] 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.
[0044] 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.
[0045] 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.
[0046] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in a first aspect of the present invention, a collector assembly is provided, comprising:
[0047] The housing 1 has a collecting chamber formed inside. The filter bracket 2 is arranged in the collecting chamber. A filter net is arranged on the filter bracket 2. The filter net is an integrated mesh bag structure.
[0048] Specifically, in this embodiment, the axial direction of the collector assembly is horizontally arranged, and the collector assembly includes a shell 1 and a filter bracket 2. A collecting chamber is formed inside the shell 1 to filter and collect impurities such as wire scraps, and the filter bracket 2 is arranged in the collecting chamber.
[0049] Specifically, the filter support 2 is arranged in the collection chamber, and a filter screen is installed on the filter support 2. The filter screen is arranged as a mesh bag integrated structure, and the impurities such as wire scraps are filtered and collected at the same time. In this embodiment, the filter screen uses a flexible mesh bag to increase the filtering area and improve the filtering efficiency.
[0050] Furthermore, a reed switch 13 is disposed on the housing 1 , and a magnetic element 211 is disposed on the filter bracket 2 . The reed switch 13 cooperates with the magnetic element 211 to detect whether the filter bracket 2 is properly installed in the housing 1 .
[0051] Specifically, a reed switch 13 is installed at the lower left end of the housing 1, and a magnetic element 211 is installed at a position corresponding to the reed switch of the filter bracket 2. In this embodiment, a mounting portion is provided on the filter bracket 2, and a magnetic element 211 is installed on the mounting portion. A gasket is provided between the magnetic element 211 and the mounting portion to fix the magnetic element 211 on the mounting portion. The magnetic element 211 cooperates with the reed switch 13 to detect whether the filter bracket 2 is installed in place in the housing 1.
[0052] More specifically, when the filter bracket 2 is installed in the shell 1, as the filter bracket 2 is installed, the attraction force between the two reed leaves of the reed switch 13 increases under the influence of the magnetic field generated by the magnetic element 211. When the attraction force between the two reed leaves is greater than the elastic force of the reed leaves themselves, the two reed leaves are attracted and turned on. At this time, it can be determined that the installation of the filter bracket 2 in the shell 1 is correct; if the two reed leaves of some reed switches 13 cannot be attracted and turned on, it means that the position of the filter bracket 2 in the shell 1 is incorrect. Therefore, the reed switch 13 and the magnetic element 211 can be used to determine whether the filter bracket 2 is installed in place in the shell 1.
[0053] Furthermore, the shell 1 is provided with an open end 15 for installing the filter bracket 2; the reed switch 13 is arranged on the end surface of the shell 1 facing the open end 15; the magnetic element 211 is arranged at a position on the end surface of the filter bracket 2 corresponding to the reed switch 13.
