Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of clothing processing equipment, and in particular, relates to a clothing processing equipment and a control method thereof. Background Art

[0002] The clothes loading port of the existing pulsator washing machine is set above the pulsator washing machine, the barrel assembly is fixed inside the box, the inner barrel and the pulsator barrel can rotate axially, and after washing is completed, the user must open the upper cover to take out and put in clothes.

[0003] This type of pulsator washing machine has certain installation requirements. At the very least, it must be free of obstructions and require a certain amount of overhead space. Therefore, it cannot meet the design concept of concealed washing machines in modern decorations, nor can it save space in the room. For larger-capacity washing machines, the cabinet is generally higher, making it inconvenient for users to load and unload clothes from above.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the existing technology mainly adopts a drawer-type side-opening door solution, but the drawer-type side-opening door washing machine is heavy when pulled out as a whole, and requires a large counterweight to keep the machine stable. Foreign objects are easily entered into the slide, and the machine vibration causes great damage to the slide, which is prone to malfunction.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a clothing processing device, which can expose part or all of the feeding port of the barrel assembly at the door, so that the user can directly put or take clothes through the exposed feeding port. The present invention also provides a control method for the clothing processing device.

[0007] In order to solve the above technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0008] A clothing processing device includes a box body and a barrel assembly, a doorway is opened on the front side of the box body, and a door body is installed at the doorway. The barrel assembly includes a washing barrel and a hanging frame, and the washing barrel is mounted inside the hanging frame. The hanging frame is connected to the door body. The barrel assembly can be arranged in the box body so as to be deflected toward the doorway. After deflection, the delivery port of the barrel assembly is at least partially exposed outside the doorway.

[0009] Furthermore, the lower end of the door body is hinged to the box body, a connecting bracket is installed on the inner surface of the door body, and a mounting bracket is provided on the side of the hanging frame facing the door body, and the mounting bracket can slide up and down to connect with the connecting bracket.

[0010] Furthermore, a plurality of feet are provided on the bottom of the suspension frame and extend downwards, and a plurality of supporting columns are provided on the bottom plate of the box body and extend upwards, and the feet are supported on the corresponding supporting columns.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a driving part, a supporting part and a driving device, the driving part and the supporting part are installed between the barrel assembly and the bottom plate of the box body, the supporting part is connected to the barrel assembly, the driving part is rotatably connected to the bracket, and the bracket is fixed on the bottom plate of the box body. The driving device drives the driving part to move, and the barrel assembly is moved upward in the vertical direction and tilted forward through the cooperation between the driving part and the supporting part.

[0012] Furthermore, the driving part includes a rotating part, a rotating shaft and a driving motor, the rotating shaft is connected to the driving motor, the rotating part is symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rotating shaft, the supporting part includes a connecting shaft and support parts at both ends, the support parts are correspondingly arranged above the rotating part, the driving motor drives the rotating part to rotate in the vertical direction through the rotating shaft, and the rotating part cooperates with the support part to realize the lifting movement of the barrel assembly during the rotation process.

[0013] Furthermore, the cross section of the rotating member in the vertical direction is set to be elliptical, and the lower surface of the supporting member that cooperates with the rotating member is an arc surface, and the arc surface is bent in the direction away from the rotating member.

[0014] Furthermore, the rotating shaft is connected to the mounting plate, and the rotating shaft drives the mounting plate to rotate around the support member. Damping members are sleeved on both ends of the auxiliary rotating shaft.

[0015] Furthermore, the driving part also includes a power piston rod arranged on the rotating shaft, and the power piston rod pushes the barrel assembly to tilt toward the outside of the box body.

[0016] The basic concept of another technical solution of the present invention is:

[0017] A control method for a clothes processing device is applied to the clothes processing device as described above, and the control method includes:

[0018] Obtaining a door opening instruction, controlling the bucket assembly to tilt toward the door, so that the delivery port of the bucket assembly is at least partially exposed outside the door;

[0019] Obtain the door closing command and control the barrel assembly to rotate toward the inside of the box to reset the barrel assembly.

[0020] Furthermore, after receiving the door opening command, it also includes a step of detecting the water level in the barrel assembly. When the water level is lower than or equal to the set water level, the door lock is controlled to open and the door opening command is executed. When the water level is higher than the set water level, the door lock is kept closed and an alarm is sounded.

[0040] Example 1

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the present invention provides a clothes processing device, which is a pulsator washing machine with a side-opening door, comprising a box body 1 and a barrel assembly 2. The barrel assembly 2 is vertically installed inside the box body 1. The upper end of the barrel assembly 2 is provided with a clothes loading port. The front side of the box body 1 is provided with a door, and a door body 3 that can be rotated up and down is provided at the door body. The door body 3 is used to realize the opening and closing of the box body 1. A detergent delivery box and a control panel are provided above the door body 3.

[0042] In this embodiment, the barrel assembly 2 is preferably arranged in the box body 1 so as to be deflected toward the door, so that the delivery port of the barrel assembly 2 is at least partially exposed outside the door after the deflection.

[0043] Compared with conventional washing machines, the present invention does not require users to open the upper cover to take out and put in clothes. Users can directly open the door 3 from the side to take out and put in clothes. At the same time, users can also embed the side-opening pulsator washing machine as a whole into a cabinet or wall, realizing an embedded design of the washing machine, saving space, meeting user needs, and improving user experience.

[0044] In this embodiment, the tub assembly 2 further preferably includes a washing tub 21 and a hanging frame 22. The washing tub 21 is sleeved inside the hanging frame 22, and the hanging frame 22 is connected to the door body 3. The washing tub 21 includes an inner tub and an outer tub. The inner tub is rotatably disposed within the outer tub. A pulsator is mounted at the bottom of the inner tub, and a drive motor and a reduction clutch are used to drive the inner tub in forward and reverse rotation to achieve washing. In this embodiment, by disposing the hanging frame 22 outside the washing tub 21 and rotatably mounting the hanging frame 22 and washing tub 21 as a whole within the housing 1, components related to the washing tub 21 can be retained as much as possible. The existing washing machine structure can be modified to transform it into a side-door washing machine, reducing the cost of redesign and allowing for large-scale promotion and use.

[0045] This embodiment is further preferred, where the hanging frame 22 is connected to the door body 3. When the user pulls the door body 3, the door body 3 drives the barrel assembly 2 to tilt outwardly toward the box body 1. The center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 moves forward, and the barrel assembly 2 tilts toward the door of the box body 1, so that the delivery port of the barrel assembly 2 at least partially protrudes from the door, making it convenient for the user to take and put in clothes.

[0046] In this embodiment, the lower end of the door body 3 is hinged to the box body 1, and the user pulls the door body 3 to tilt outward. It is further preferred to use a damping hinge to serve as a damping limiter for the opening angle of the door body 3, which can facilitate the user to deflect the door body 3 and the barrel assembly 2 to any desired angle, making it convenient for the user to use, and at the same time, it can also prevent the barrel assembly 2 from tipping forward.

[0047] The embodiment is further preferred that a connecting bracket 31 is provided on the inner side of the door body 3, and a mounting bracket 25 is provided on the side of the hanging frame 22 facing the door body 3, and the mounting bracket 25 is slidable up and down to be connected to the connecting bracket 31. In order to make the barrel assembly 2 rise, the mounting bracket can slide upward along the connecting bracket 31.

[0048] This embodiment is further preferred, and a mounting bracket 25 is provided on the hanging frame 22 extending toward one side of the door body 3, and is connected to the door body 3 through the extended mounting bracket 25, so that the door body 3 can drive the hanging frame 22 to move, and the mounting bracket 25 is set in the shape of a door handle with a gap in the middle. The cross-section of the mounting bracket 25 in the horizontal direction is composed of two wide sides and one long side of a rectangle, and the two side sections 251 of the mounting bracket 25 are respectively connected to the hanging frame 22, and the two side sections 251 of the mounting bracket 25 are parallel, and the middle section 252 of the mounting bracket is respectively connected to the two side sections 251, and the middle section 252 is perpendicular to the two side sections 251. There is a horizontal gap between the middle section 252 of the mounting bracket 25 and the hanging frame 22, and the gap can be used for the connecting bracket 31 on the door body 3 to pass through, and then the door body 3 and the hanging frame 22 are connected together.

[0049] This embodiment is further preferred, and a connecting bracket 31 is provided on the door body 3 extending toward one side of the suspension frame 22, and two connecting brackets 31 are symmetrically provided on the left and right. One of the connecting brackets 31 is explained, and the cross-section of the connecting bracket 31 in the vertical direction is a shape consisting of two wide sides and one long side of a rectangle, and the upper and lower short side sections 311 of the connecting bracket 31 are respectively connected to the door body 3, and the two short side sections 311 of the connecting bracket 31 are arranged in parallel, and the middle long section 312 is perpendicular to the short side section 311, and there is a gap between the middle long section 312 and the door body 3, and the middle section 252 of the mounting bracket 25 can pass through this gap to connect the door body 3 and the suspension frame 22 together.

[0050] This embodiment also provides another implementation method, in which the mounting bracket 25 and the connecting bracket 31 can also be slidably connected and fixed by a slider and a slide rail structure.

[0051] This embodiment is further preferred, and a mounting plate 23 is provided at the bottom of the hanging frame 22, and the mounting plate 23 is connected to the bottom of the hanging frame 22, and the diameter of the mounting plate 23 is larger than the diameter of the hanging frame 22. By providing a mounting plate 23 with a larger diameter, the hanging frame 22 can be better supported, and the barrel assembly 2 can be more stably installed inside the box body 1, or the mounting plate 23 is set as the bottom plate 11 of the hanging frame 22, and the mounting plate 23 and the hanging frame 22 are integrally formed.

[0052] This embodiment is further preferred, and the mounting plate 23 extends downward toward the bottom of the box body 1 and is provided with a plurality of feet 24, and the bottom of the box body 1 is provided with a bottom plate 11, and the bottom plate 11 extends upward toward the mounting plate 23 and is provided with a plurality of support columns 12, and the support columns 12 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the feet 24, and the support columns 12 are connected to the feet 24, and the feet 24 are supported on the corresponding support columns 12.

[0053] This embodiment is further preferred in that four feet 24 are provided at the four corners of the mounting plate 23 to support the barrel assembly 2. Accordingly, four support columns 12 are provided at corresponding positions of the bottom plate 11. Through the cooperation of the support columns 12 and the feet 24, the barrel assembly 2 is stably installed inside the box body 1.

[0054] In this embodiment, each support column 12 is further preferably provided with a downwardly recessed connection groove on its top surface. The connection groove receives a foot 24, which abuts against the connection groove to ensure that the tub assembly 2 is stably supported during the washing process. The foot 24 and the connection groove are not fixedly connected, and the foot 24 can be separated from the connection groove according to user needs.

[0055] This embodiment is further preferred in that the base foot 24 includes a supporting foot 242 and a connecting foot 241. The supporting foot 242 and the connecting foot 241 are both configured to be cylindrical, and the diameter of the supporting foot 242 is larger than the diameter of the connecting foot 241. By configuring the supporting foot 242 with a larger diameter, the supporting effect is better, so that the barrel assembly 2 can be installed more stably and firmly.

[0056] This embodiment is further preferred and further includes a driving part 5, a supporting part 4 and a driving device. The driving part 5 and the supporting part 4 are installed between the barrel assembly 2 and the bottom plate 11 of the box body 1. The driving device drives the driving part 5 to operate. Through the cooperation of the driving part 5 and the supporting part 4, the barrel assembly 2 is lifted and lowered in the vertical direction, so as to move the base 24 upward and disengage from the support column, or move the base downward and connect with the support column, and complete the action of tilting the barrel assembly 2 forward, so that the washing machine can take clothes and put them in from the front end of the box body 1.

[0057] In this embodiment, a bracket 6 is further preferably provided on the bottom plate 11 extending toward the mounting plate 23. The driving unit 5 is mounted on the bottom plate 11 via the bracket 6. The bottom end of the bracket 6 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate 11. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the bracket 6 and the mounting plate 23 may be connected together using any feasible connection method, such as screw connection, riveting, etc. Alternatively, those skilled in the art may further integrate the bracket 6 and the bottom plate 11 as needed to provide better support for the driving unit 5.

[0058] It is further preferred in this embodiment that the support portion 4 is connected to the mounting plate 23, and the driving portion 5 tilts the barrel assembly 2 forward through the support portion 4 to complete tilting clothing retrieval.

[0059] In this embodiment, the driving part 5 includes a rotating member 51, a rotating shaft 52 and a driving motor (not shown in the figure). The rotating shaft 52 is rotatably connected to the bracket 6. Through the rotational connection, the rotating shaft 52 can rotate at one end connected to the bracket 6, driving the rotating member 51 to rotate.

[0060] This embodiment is further preferred, the rotating shaft 52 is connected to the driving motor, the bracket 6 is connected to the rotating shaft 52, the rotating shaft 52 can be rotated on the bracket 6 by the driving motor, the driving motor drives the rotating shaft 52 to rotate, the rotating part 51 is symmetrically arranged at both ends of the rotating shaft 52, and the rotating shaft 52 also drives the rotating part 51 to rotate.

[0061] In this embodiment, the bracket 6 and the driving unit 5 are further preferably rotatably connected. The function of the bracket 6 is to elevate the driving unit 5 as a whole, thereby creating a gap between the driving unit 5 and the base plate 11, allowing the rotating member 51 of the driving unit 5 to rotate up and down within this gap. Multiple brackets 6 can be provided, all disposed on the base plate 11 below the rotating shaft 52. The connection between the bracket 6 and the rotating shaft 52 can be configured as a sleeve structure, that is, a fixing hole is provided in the bracket 6, and the rotating shaft 52 is passed through this fixing hole. The rotating shaft 52 can rotate within this fixing hole, thereby driving the rotating members 51 on both sides to rotate up and down.

[0062] In this embodiment, it is further preferred that there is a distance between the rotating member 51 and the bottom plate 11 in the vertical direction, and the vertical cross-section of the rotating member 51 is set to be elliptical.

[0063] In this embodiment, the rotating shaft 52 is further preferably mounted on the bracket 6 , and the bracket 6 has a certain height so that the rotating member 51 is vertically spaced apart from the bottom plate 11 and the rotating member 51 does not hit the bottom plate 11 when rotating.

[0064] This embodiment is further preferred, and the support part 4 includes a rotating shaft 4342 and symmetrically arranged support members 41. The support members 41 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the base plate 11, and a support member 41 is correspondingly arranged above each rotating member 51. The two support members 41 are rotatably connected to the middle rotating shaft 4342, and the rotating shaft 4342 is connected to the mounting plate 23. The rotating shaft 4342 is connected to the symmetrical support members 41. During the process of opening and closing the door, the support member 41 always maintains an unchanged angle and a relative position with the rotating member 51 remains unchanged.

[0065] This embodiment is further preferred, and the rotating shaft 4342 is connected to the mounting plate 23, and damping members are provided at both ends of the rotating shaft 4342. Since the weight of the barrel assembly 2 becomes larger after being filled with clothes, danger may occur when the barrel assembly 2 tilts toward the door body 3, and a large impact force is exerted on the damping hinge provided on the door body 3. The damping member plays a role of damping and deceleration. When the rotating shaft 4342 drives the barrel assembly 2 to rotate, the speed at which the barrel assembly 2 tilts can be slowed down to avoid a large impact force on the door body 3.

[0066] This embodiment is further preferred in that when the user wants to close the door after taking or putting clothes, it is difficult for the user to reset the barrel assembly 2 due to the weight of the barrel assembly 2 itself. By setting a rotating shaft 4342 to assist the barrel assembly 2 in rotating, the rotating shaft 4342 drives the barrel assembly 2 to rotate, so that the user can push the door with less force to reset the barrel assembly.

[0067] In this embodiment, it is further preferred that the lower surface of the supporting member 41 that cooperates with the rotating member 51 is an arc surface, and the arc surface is curved in a direction away from the rotating member 51 .

[0068] This embodiment is further preferred in that the rotating member 51 directly below the support member 41 rotates along the arc surface of the support member 41. Since the rotating member 51 is an ellipse as a whole, the rotating member 51 will push the support member 41 upward during the clockwise rotation process, so that the barrel assembly 2 moves upward as a whole, and the base 24 is separated from the support column 12.

[0069] This embodiment is further preferred in that the curved end of the support member 41 near the right half of the door body 3 is set to a strong damping material to prevent the barrel assembly 2 from tilting toward the side of the door body 3. Due to the limitation of the door body 3, the barrel assembly 2 will not tilt away from the side.

[0070] This embodiment is further preferred, when the washing machine is in normal operation, the rotating part 51 is placed horizontally, and the rotating part 51 does not contact the supporting part 41. This arrangement ensures that when the clothing processing device is in normal operation, the rotating part 51 and the supporting part 41 are not subjected to force, and key moving components are not easily damaged.

[0071] In this embodiment, the washing machine is also provided with a control system, which connects the driving device and the barrel assembly 2. The control system ensures that the clothing processing equipment operates efficiently and stably. The control system accurately controls the rotation angle of the driving device according to a preset program to achieve precise control of the barrel assembly 2.

[0072] Example 2

[0073] The present invention provides a clothes processing device, which is different from the first embodiment in that the driving part 5 in this embodiment further includes a power piston rod provided on the rotating shaft 52, and the power piston rod can be driven by air pressure or hydraulic pressure.

[0074] This embodiment is further preferred. When the rotating member 51 rotates clockwise to a preset position, the base 24 slowly leaves the support column 12 during the rising process of the barrel assembly 2, keeping the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 directly above the apex of the support member 41 and the rotating member 51, and the center of gravity line coincides with the axis of the rotating member 51. At this time, the user pulls the door body 3 by hand, and the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 falls just above the contact point between the rotating member 51 and the support member 41.

[0075] In this embodiment, it is further preferred that the rotating member 51 rotates to a preset position, the barrel assembly 2 tilts toward the door body 3, and the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 falls on the contact point between the rotating member 51 and the support member 41. The preset position means that after the rotating member 51 moves along the curved surface of the support member 41, the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 falls exactly on the contact point between the rotating member 51 and the support member 41, and the barrel assembly 2 will not slide forward or backward.

[0076] At this time, the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 falls just above the contact point between the rotating part 51 and the support part 41. The piston rod pushes the barrel assembly 2 to tilt toward the door, and the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 moves forward. The barrel assembly 2 protrudes from the outside of the box body 1 due to its own gravity, and the user can take and put clothes from the front end of the washing machine.

[0077] Similarly, when the user has taken or put away the clothes, he or she needs to close the door 3. The user pushes the door 3 toward the inside of the box 1 to close it. At this time, the piston rod will drive the barrel assembly 2 to tilt toward the inside of the box 1, keeping the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 directly above the apex of the support 41 and the rotating member 51, and the center of gravity line coincides with the axis of the rotating member 51. At this time, the rotating member 51 rotates counterclockwise, and the base 24 is embedded in the support column 12, completing the resetting of the barrel assembly 2.

[0078] Other details are the same as those in Example 1.

[0079] Example 3

[0080] The present invention provides a control method for a clothes processing device, to which the clothes processing device of the second embodiment is applied. The control method includes:

[0081] Obtain a door opening instruction and control the bucket assembly 2 to tilt toward the door so that the delivery port of the bucket assembly 2 is at least partially exposed outside the door;

[0082] Obtain the door closing instruction, control the barrel assembly 2 to rotate toward the inside of the box body 1, and reset the barrel assembly 2.

[0083] This embodiment is further preferred in that, after receiving the door opening command, it also includes a step of detecting the water level in the barrel assembly 2. When the water level is lower than or equal to the set water level, the door lock is controlled to open and the door opening command is executed. When the water level is higher than the set water level, the door lock is kept closed and an alarm is triggered.

[0084] This embodiment is further preferred. If the washing machine obtains a door-opening instruction, the washing machine controls the rotating part 51 to rotate along the support part 41 to a preset position. At this time, the barrel assembly 2 on the support part 41 is lifted by the driving part 51, and the base 24 is separated from the support column 12. At this time, the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 falls on the contact point between the driving part 51 and the support part 41, and the piston rod pushes the barrel assembly 2 to tilt toward the side of the door body 3. At this time, the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 moves toward the side of the door body 3. Through the gravity of the barrel assembly 2 itself, the barrel assembly 2 protrudes from the outside of the box body 1 until the door body 3 can no longer tilt, and the user is reminded to take clothes in time by opening the door or issuing an alarm.

[0085] This embodiment is further preferred in that a contact sensor is provided at the contact position between the housing 1 and the door 3. The contact sensor is provided to detect whether the door 3 is pulled open by the user or the door 3 is opened automatically. If the washing machine detects that the door 3 is out of contact with the housing 1, the washing machine controls the rotating member 51 to rotate along the support member 41 to a preset position. At this time, the center of gravity of the barrel assembly 2 falls on the contact point between the driving member 51 and the support member 41. With the help of the piston rod, the user can pull open the door 3 without too much effort, so that the barrel assembly 2 tilts toward the door 3, and the barrel assembly 2 protrudes from the outside of the housing 1.

[0086] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not constitute any form of limitation to the present invention. Although the present invention has been disclosed as above in terms of a preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technician familiar with this patent can make slight changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments of equivalent changes using the above-mentioned technical contents without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention. The implementation schemes in the above-mentioned embodiments can also be further combined or replaced. However, any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above-mentioned embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention without departing from the content of the technical solution of the present invention are still within the scope of the solution of the present invention.
