The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0035] Below, reference is made to Figure 1 Describe a laundry device 100 for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present invention. The laundry device 100 can be installed in a vehicle. The laundry device 100 includes: a laundry main body 10, the laundry main body 10 includes a cleaning bin 11 and a laundry mechanism, and the laundry mechanism is arranged in the cleaning bin 11; a power driving mechanism for driving the laundry mechanism to achieve a laundry function; and the power driving mechanism is connected to the vehicle power system.

[0036] Among them, a cleaning bin 11 can be formed in the laundry main body 10. When using the laundry device 100, a user puts clothes to be cleaned into the cleaning bin 11. A laundry mechanism is arranged in the cleaning bin 11. For example, the laundry mechanism can be a structure such as a pulsator or a pulley, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The laundry mechanism can also be other structures as long as the laundry mechanism can clean clothes. The laundry mechanism can rotate to strike the clothes, achieving the effect of the laundry mechanism cleaning the clothes, so that the laundry device 100 realizes the laundry function, and thus enables the user to realize the laundry function even in inconvenient laundry situations such as self-driving tours and long-distance driving, improving the user experience.

[0037] The power driving mechanism is used to drive the laundry mechanism. For example, the power driving mechanism and the laundry mechanism can be connected by gear transmission, or the power driving mechanism and the laundry mechanism can also be connected by link transmission, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The power driving mechanism and the laundry mechanism can also be connected by other means as long as the power driving mechanism and the laundry mechanism are connected by transmission. The power driving mechanism is used to drive the laundry mechanism to strike the clothes in the cleaning bin 11, so that the laundry device 100 realizes the laundry function, and thus enables the user to realize the laundry function even in inconvenient laundry situations such as self-driving tours and long-distance driving, improving the user experience.

[0038] The power driving mechanism is connected to the vehicle power system, that is, the power of the power driving mechanism can be derived from the power of the vehicle. For example, the power of the power driving mechanism can be derived from the vehicle engine, or the power of the power driving mechanism can be derived from the vehicle drive motor, so as to make the laundry device 100 make composite use of the vehicle power, and thus improve the utilization rate of the vehicle kinetic energy.

[0039] According to the laundry device 100 of an embodiment of the present invention, by providing the laundry device 100 on a vehicle and driving the laundry mechanism through a power drive mechanism, the laundry device 100 can achieve the laundry function, enabling users to achieve the laundry function during self-driving tours, long-distance driving, etc., improving the user experience. Moreover, since the power drive mechanism is connected to the vehicle power system, the laundry device 100 can also make composite use of the vehicle power, improving the utilization rate of the vehicle kinetic energy.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 shown, the power drive mechanism may include a first drive assembly 20, a second drive assembly 30, and a transmission assembly 40. The transmission assembly 40 is drivingly connected between the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30. The second drive assembly 30 drives the first drive assembly 20 through the transmission assembly 40 so that the first drive assembly 20 drives the laundry mechanism.

[0041] Among them, the power drive mechanism may include a first drive assembly 20, a second drive assembly 30, and a transmission assembly 40, and the transmission assembly 40 is drivingly connected between the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30. For example: the transmission assembly 40 may be in a gear driving connection with both the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30, or the transmission assembly 40 may also be in a link driving connection with both the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the transmission assembly 40 may also be in other driving connection ways with the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30 as long as the transmission assembly 40 is drivingly connected between the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30. This can enable the second drive assembly 30 to drive the first drive assembly 20 through the transmission assembly 40 to drive the laundry mechanism to strike the clothes in the cleaning bin 11, so that the laundry device 100 realizes the laundry function, and further enables users to realize the laundry function even in inconvenient laundry situations such as self-driving tours and long-distance driving, improving the user experience.

[0042] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 shown, the first drive assembly 20 may include: a power output gear 21. The power output gear 21 is located outside the laundry main body 10 and is drivingly connected to the laundry mechanism. The power output gear 21 meshes with the transmission assembly 40.

[0043] The first driving assembly 20 may include: a power output gear 21, for example: the power output gear 21 may be a gear structure of a spur gear, a helical gear, a spur gear, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the power output gear 21 may also be other types of gears, as long as the power output gear 21 can output power. The power output gear 21 is located outside the washing body 10, and the power output gear 21 is transmission-connected with the washing mechanism, and the power output gear 21 and the washing mechanism may be connected by a transmission shaft, so that when the power output gear 21 rotates, power is output to the washing mechanism, driving the washing mechanism to rotate, so that the washing device 100 works normally, and the power output gear 21 is meshed with the transmission assembly 40, which can ensure that the second driving assembly 30 drives the first driving assembly 20 through the transmission assembly 40, and then the power output gear 21 drives the washing mechanism to hit the clothes in the washing chamber 11, thereby realizing the washing function of the washing device 100.

[0044] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, there can be multiple power output gears 21, and the multiple power output gears 21 are meshed in sequence. Multiple washing mechanisms are arranged in the cleaning chamber 11, and the multiple power output gears 21 are connected to the multiple washing mechanisms in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0045] Among them, there can be multiple power output gears 21, for example, the number of power output gears 21 can be two, three, four, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the number of power output gears 21 can also be other numbers, as long as there are multiple power output gears 21. This application takes the number of three power output gears 21 as an example for explanation, and multiple power output gears 21 are meshed in sequence. Multiple washing mechanisms can be provided in the washing chamber 11, and multiple power output gears 21 are connected to multiple washing mechanisms in a one-to-one correspondence. Such a setting can enhance the washing ability of the washing device 100, thereby improving the working efficiency of the washing device 100.

[0046] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1 As shown, the plurality of power output gears 21 have the same number of teeth.

[0047] Among them, the same number of teeth on multiple power output gears 21 can ensure that the rotation speeds of the multiple power output gears 21 are the same, and the rotation speeds of multiple washing mechanisms can be the same, thereby ensuring that the working effects of the multiple power output gears 21 are the same, and then ensuring that the working effects of the multiple washing mechanisms are the same, avoiding uneven clothing washing and improving the washing effect of the washing device 100.

[0048] According to some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 1As shown, the second drive assembly 30 may include: a power input gear 31, which is adapted to be in transmission connection with the vehicle power system. For example, the power input gear 31 is adapted to be in transmission connection with the power output shaft of the vehicle power system, and a transmission assembly 40 is in transmission connection between the first drive assembly 20 and the power input gear 31.

[0049] Among them, the second drive assembly 30 may include: a power input gear 31. For example, the power input gear 31 may be a gear structure such as a spur gear, a helical gear, a straight gear, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto. The power input gear 31 may also be other types of gears, as long as the power input gear 31 can input power.

[0050] The power input gear 31 is adapted to be in transmission connection with the vehicle power system. The vehicle power system may be an engine, or the vehicle power system may also be a drive motor. The transmission assembly 40 is in transmission connection between the power output gear 21 of the first drive assembly 20 and the power input gear 31. With such a setting, the power input gear 31 can transmit the power of the vehicle to the transmission assembly 40, the transmission assembly 40 transmits the power of the vehicle to the first drive assembly 20, and the first drive assembly 20 transmits the power of the vehicle to the laundry mechanism, so that the laundry mechanism realizes the laundry function, and further the laundry device 100 realizes the laundry function, enabling the user to realize the laundry function when driving or parking, etc., improving the user experience. The laundry device 100 can also make a combined use of the vehicle power and improve the utilization rate of the vehicle kinetic energy.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the laundry device 100 may further include: a speed reduction mechanism 50, and the speed reduction mechanism 50 is in transmission connection between the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40.

[0052] Among them, the speed reduction mechanism 50 is in transmission connection between the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40. For example, the speed reduction mechanism 50 and the power input gear 31, the transmission assembly 40 may be in gear transmission connection, or the speed reduction mechanism 50 and the power input gear 31, the transmission assembly 40 may also be in link transmission connection, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The speed reduction mechanism 50 and the power input gear 31, the transmission assembly 40 may also be in other connection manners, as long as the speed reduction mechanism 50 is in transmission connection between the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40. Specifically, the speed reduction mechanism 50 has a speed reduction effect. The power of the vehicle power system is much greater than the power required by the laundry device 100. The speed reduction mechanism 50 being in transmission connection between the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40 can play a role in speed reduction and avoid the situation that the laundry mechanism rotates too fast and damages the clothes.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present invention, asFigure 1 As shown in Figure 1 , the speed reduction mechanism 50 may include at least one reduction gear 51, and the reduction gear 51 is meshed between the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40.

[0054] Among them, the speed reduction mechanism 50 may include at least one reduction gear 51. For example, the speed reduction mechanism 50 may include one reduction gear 51, two reduction gears 51, three reduction gears 51, four reduction gears 51, etc. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. The speed reduction mechanism 50 may also include other numbers of reduction gears 51, as long as the speed reduction mechanism 50 includes at least one reduction gear 51. It can be explained that the number of reduction gears 51 can be set and adjusted according to actual situations. The reduction gear 51 is meshed between the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40. When the reduction gear 51 rotates, it can drive the transmission assembly 40 to drive the first drive assembly 20 to work, thereby realizing the transmission of power between the transmission assembly 40 and the first drive assembly 20.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 As shown in Figure 1 , there may be multiple reduction gears 51. The number of teeth of the multiple reduction gears 51 are all different. The multiple reduction gears 51 are meshed in sequence, and the two reduction gears 51 located at the ends among the multiple reduction gears 51 are respectively meshed with the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40.

[0056] Among them, there may be multiple reduction gears 51. For example, the reduction gear 51 may be two, three, four, etc. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. The number of reduction gears 51 may also be other numbers, as long as there are multiple reduction gears 51. In this application, an example is given where there are three reduction gears 51. The number of teeth of the multiple reduction gears 51 are all different. The multiple reduction gears 51 are meshed in sequence, and the two reduction gears 51 located at the ends among the multiple reduction gears 51 are respectively meshed with the power input gear 31 and the transmission assembly 40. With such a setting, the power of the vehicle can be adjusted and reduced, preventing the power transmitted by the power input gear 31 to the laundry device 100 from being too large and damaging the laundry device 100, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the laundry device 100 and further improving the service life of the laundry device 100.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 As shown in Figure 1 , the transmission assembly 40 may include a mounting bracket 41 and a transmission gear 42. The transmission gear 42 is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 41, and the transmission gear 42 is meshed between the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30.

[0058] Among them, the transmission gear 42 is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 41. For example, the transmission gear 42 and the mounting bracket 41 can be connected by a rotating shaft, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The transmission gear 42 and the mounting bracket 41 can also be connected by other means, as long as the transmission gear 42 is rotatably mounted on the mounting bracket 41. The transmission gear 42 is engaged between the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30. Specifically, the transmission gear 42 is drivingly connected to the power input gear 31 of the second drive assembly 30 through a speed reduction mechanism 50. The transmission gear 42 is engaged between the power output gear 21 of the first drive assembly 20 and the reduction gear 51 of the speed reduction mechanism 50, which can ensure that the second drive assembly 30 drives the first drive assembly 20 to work through the transmission gear 42, and further enables the first drive assembly 20 to drive the laundry mechanism to strike the clothes in the cleaning chamber 11, thereby realizing the laundry function of the laundry device 100.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the mounting bracket 41 can have a plurality of mounting arms 411. The mounting arms 411 are telescopic. The transmission gears 42 are multiple. The multiple transmission gears 42 are respectively rotatably mounted on the corresponding mounting arms 411. By rotating the mounting bracket 41, one of the multiple transmission gears 42 is connected between the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30. Among them, the number of teeth of at least two transmission gears 42 is different.

[0060] Among them, the mounting bracket 41 can have a plurality of mounting arms 411. For example, the number of mounting arms 411 can be two, three, four, five, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto. The number of mounting arms 411 can also be other numbers, as long as the mounting bracket 41 has a plurality of mounting arms 411. The mounting arms 411 are telescopic. For example, the mounting arms 411 can be a support telescopic rod structure, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The mounting arms 411 can also be other structures, as long as the mounting arms 411 can be telescopic. For example, the mounting arms 411 are hydraulic mounting arms 411.

[0061] The transmission gears 42 are multiple. For example, the number of transmission gears 42 can be two, three, four, five, etc., but the present invention is not limited thereto. The number of transmission gears 42 can also be other numbers, as long as there are multiple transmission gears 42. It can be explained that the number of transmission gears 42 can be the same as the number of mounting arms 411. The multiple transmission gears 42 are respectively rotatably mounted on the corresponding mounting arms 411. The number of transmission gears 42 and the number of mounting arms 411 can be set and adjusted according to the actual situation.

[0062] By rotating the mounting bracket 41, one of the multiple transmission gears 42 can be engaged between the power output gear 21 of the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30. Specifically, the transmission gear 42 is drivingly connected to the power input gear 31 of the second drive assembly 30 through a reduction mechanism 50, and the transmission gear 42 is engaged between the power output gear 21 of the first drive assembly 20 and the reduction gear 51 of the reduction mechanism 50. Such an arrangement can ensure that the second drive assembly 30 drives the first drive assembly 20 through the transmission gear 42, and further enables the second drive assembly 30 to drive the laundry mechanism to strike the clothes in the cleaning chamber 11, thereby realizing the laundry function of the laundry device 100.

[0063] The number of teeth of at least two transmission gears 42 is different. For example, two of the transmission gears 42 can have different numbers of teeth, or three of the transmission gears 42 can have different numbers of teeth, or four of the transmission gears 42 can have different numbers of teeth. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and other numbers of transmission gears 42 in the transmission gears 42 can also have different numbers of teeth, as long as at least two transmission gears 42 have different numbers of teeth. By connecting the transmission gears 42 with different numbers of teeth between the first drive assembly 20 and the second drive assembly 30, it is possible to adjust the laundry mechanism to clean clothes at different rotational speeds, enable the laundry device 100 to have different laundry modes, so that the user can have multiple laundry mode selections, and further enhance the user experience.

[0064] Specifically, the mounting arm 411 can be telescopic to ensure that the transmission gears 42 with different numbers of teeth are accurately engaged with the reduction gear 51 and the power output gear 21, thereby ensuring the working effect of the laundry device 100 and further improving the working efficiency of the laundry device 100.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the laundry device 100 may further include: a driving device 43, the driving device 43 is connected to the mounting bracket 41, and the driving device 43 is used to drive the mounting bracket 41 to rotate.

[0066] Among them, the laundry device 100 may further include: a driving device 43. For example, the driving device 43 may be a device such as a motor or an engine, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The driving device 43 may also be other devices as long as the driving device 43 can drive the mounting bracket 41 to rotate. The driving device 43 is connected to the mounting bracket 41. For example, the driving device 43 and the mounting bracket 41 may be connected by a rotating shaft, and the driving device 43 is used to drive the mounting bracket 41 to rotate. With such a setting, after the user selects a laundry mode, the driving device 43 can drive the mounting bracket 41 to rotate to the corresponding transmission gear 42. The corresponding transmission gear 42 is connected between the first driving assembly 20 and the second driving assembly 30, and can enable the laundry device 100 to work in the laundry mode selected by the user, so that the user can have multiple laundry mode options, thereby enhancing the user experience.

[0067] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the laundry device 100 may further include: a metal detector 16. The metal detector 16 is provided on the laundry main body 10, and the metal detector 16 is used to detect whether there are metal items in the cleaning chamber 11.

[0068] Among them, the metal detector 16 is provided on the laundry main body 10. For example, the metal detector 16 and the laundry main body 10 may be fixedly connected by bolts, or the metal detector 16 and the laundry main body 10 may also be snap-connected, but the present invention is not limited thereto. The metal detector 16 and the laundry main body 10 may also be connected in other ways as long as the metal detector 16 is provided on the laundry main body 10.

[0069] The metal detector 16 can be used to detect whether there are metal items in the cleaning chamber 11. Specifically, after the user puts the clothes into the cleaning chamber 11, the metal detector 16 starts to detect whether there are metal items in the cleaning chamber 11. When the metal detector 16 does not detect metal items, the metal detector 16 will not issue an alarm, and the user can directly proceed to the next operation. When the metal detector 16 detects metal items, the metal detector 16 will issue an alarm to remind the user to promptly take out the metal items from the cleaning chamber 11 to prevent the metal items from rubbing against the cleaning chamber 11 when the cleaning chamber 11 is working, thereby protecting the cleaning chamber 11 and the metal items, and further enhancing the service life of the laundry device 100.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present invention, as Figure 1 shown, the laundry main body 10 may have a drying inlet 13 communicating with the cleaning chamber 11. The drying inlet 13 is provided with a filtering device, and the drying inlet 13 is adapted to communicate with the heat source of the vehicle.

[0071] Among them, the laundry main body 10 may have a drying inlet 13 communicating with the cleaning bin 11. For example, there may be a pipeline connecting the cleaning bin 11 and the drying inlet 13, or the cleaning bin 11 and the drying inlet 13 may be integrally formed. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the cleaning bin 11 and the drying inlet 13 may also be connected in other ways, as long as the cleaning bin 11 and the drying inlet 13 are connected. The drying inlet 13 is provided with a filtering device, which can filter and clean the hot air entering the cleaning bin 11, ensuring that the clothes cleaned in the cleaning bin 11 are not contaminated during drying, and thus ensuring the working effect of the laundry device 100.

[0072] The drying inlet 13 is adapted to communicate with the heat source of the vehicle. The heat source of the vehicle can be the heat generated by components such as batteries and motors. For example, there may be a pipeline connecting the drying inlet 13 and the heat source of the vehicle. After the drying inlet 13 is connected to the heat source of the vehicle, the heat source of the vehicle can be used to dry the clothes in the cleaning bin 11, realizing the drying of the clothes, and can also make multiple uses of the heat energy of the vehicle, reducing the impact of the vehicle heat source on parts such as batteries and motors, thereby improving the service life of the vehicle.
