Description

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of motor driving for clothes dryers, and in particular to a dual-drive motor. The present invention also relates to a clothes dryer using the dual-drive motor. Background Art

[0002] As a household appliance, clothes dryers have been widely used. As one of the key core components of clothes dryers, the performance of clothes dryer motors directly determines the quality of clothes dryers. The current technology of clothes dryer motors is a dual output shaft drive mode of a single motor. Specifically, at the output shaft end A of the motor A centrifugal fan wheel is installed to transfer the heat energy generated by the heat pump to the dryer barrel, so that the objects in the dryer barrel are slowly dried; at the same time, a small pulley is pressed into the output shaft end B of the motor, and then the large pulley installed on the end cover is driven to rotate through the first-stage transmission, and the large pulley drives the dryer barrel to rotate through the belt. Through the two-stage transmission, the force of the motor is amplified and transmitted to the dryer barrel, so that the objects in the dryer barrel can be turned evenly to achieve the purpose of drying; the advantage of this solution is that the structure is simple, and the fan wheel and the dryer barrel are driven to rotate at the same time through the output shaft of the motor to achieve its drying purpose, but it also has many disadvantages: 1. Due to the working characteristics of the centrifugal fan, the motor can only rotate in one direction, which is understandable for air cooling, but for the dryer drum, it can only rotate in one direction. The objects in the dryer drum cannot be turned freely to be heated, and the quality of drying will be significantly reduced; 2. Further, for the dryer drum, the rotation speed is very important to the drying effect. If the speed is too high, the objects in the dryer will continue to rotate with the dryer drum, which will affect the heat entering the dryer drum and greatly reduce the drying effect. If the speed is too low, the objects in the dryer will fall by inertia before they reach the highest point, which will reduce the heating effect and increase the load. Under normal circumstances, the speed of the dryer drum is controlled at 50±5RPM for the best drying effect; however, once the speed of the dryer drum is fixed, the speed of the centrifugal impeller is determined, resulting in the air volume generated cannot be adjusted according to the drying effect of the dryer load. To a certain extent, it not only increases the drying time, but also consumes more energy; 3. The motor has two functions: to drive the centrifugal fan wheel and the dryer drum to rotate. Since the two load conditions are completely different, the motor must have sufficient power to ensure its operation during design, resulting in a relatively high design cost of the motor.

[0003] In addition, a certain amount of energy loss will be generated during the transmission of the motor torque, and the belt is a multi-V belt, and its transmission efficiency is generally around 95%. After two-stage transmission, it is reduced to around 90%, sacrificing about 5% of the transmission efficiency compared to the first-stage transmission; and the structure of the large pulley undertakes both the first-stage transmission and the second-stage transmission, which makes the pulley easy to wear and damage, especially the bearing supporting the pulley, which is extremely easy to be damaged, resulting in noise, vibration and other conditions after operation.

[0004] Therefore, the applicant hopes to seek a technical solution to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of this, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a dual-drive motor and a dryer using the same, which can respectively achieve a more superior drum drive effect and a centrifugal impeller drive effect.
