[0002] Taking a pulsator-type clothing processing device as an example, when the external dimensions of the cabinet remain unchanged, as the washing volume increases, the gap between the barrel assembly and the cabinet becomes smaller and smaller. During the washing or dehydration process, the barrel assembly will vibrate and deflect, and easily hit the cabinet, affecting the safety of the clothing processing device.

[0049] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0050] The various specific technical features described in the specific embodiments may be combined in any suitable manner, unless they are inconsistent. For example, different embodiments and technical solutions may be formed by combining different specific technical features. To avoid unnecessary repetition, the various possible combinations of the specific technical features in the present invention will not be described separately.

[0051] In the following description, the terms "first, second, ..." are used solely to distinguish different objects and do not imply any similarities or connections between the objects. It should be understood that the directions "above," "below," "outside," and "inside" refer to directions during normal use. The directions "left" and "right" refer to the left-right directions shown in the corresponding schematic diagrams, which may or may not be the left-right directions during normal use.

[0052] It should be noted that the terms "comprises," "includes," or any other variations thereof are intended to encompass non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus comprising a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not explicitly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus. In the absence of further limitations, an element defined by the phrase "comprising a ..." does not preclude the presence of additional identical elements in the process, method, article, or apparatus comprising that element. "A plurality" means greater than or equal to two.

[0053] The present application embodiment provides a clothes processing device 100, see Figures 1 to 17 The clothing processing device 100 includes a housing 1 , a tub assembly 2 , a first rod 4 and a vibration-damping assembly 3 .

[0054] It is understood that the specific form of the clothing processing device 100 is not limited, and can be a pulsator washing machine, a washer-dryer, etc., which is not limited here. Preferably, the vibration reduction component 3 of the embodiment of the present application is applied to a pulsator washing machine to achieve better results.

[0055] The barrel assembly 2 is disposed in the box body 1 .

[0056] It is understood that the tub assembly 2 may include an inner tub and an outer tub, with the inner tub disposed within the outer tub, and the space within the inner tub defining a laundry processing chamber. The inner tub may be a perforated inner tub or a non-perforated inner tub. When the inner tub is a perforated inner tub, the outer tub is used to hold water; when the inner tub is non-perforated, the inner tub itself holds water. In other words, the inner tub can hold both water and laundry, and during the washing process, water in the inner tub does not enter the outer tub. In some embodiments, the tub assembly 2 may consist of only an inner tub, without an outer tub; in this case, the inner tub is a non-perforated inner tub.

[0057] The box body 1 can provide accommodation space and protection for the barrel assembly 2, isolate the barrel assembly 2 from the outside world, and reduce the chance of external dust and other impurities coming into contact with the barrel assembly 2. When the clothing processing device 100 is impacted, the box body 1 can also effectively withstand external impacts and reduce the chance of damage to the barrel assembly 2.

[0058] The first rod 4 extends in the height direction and is fixed to the circumferential outer side of the barrel assembly 2 .

[0059] That is to say, the axis of the first rod body 4 is parallel to the height direction, and the axis of the first rod body 4 is parallel to the axis of the barrel assembly 2. There is no relative movement between the first rod body 4 and the barrel assembly 2. When the barrel assembly 2 moves, it can drive the first rod body 4 to move synchronously.

[0060] It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the height direction is consistent with the up-down direction and the top-bottom direction.

[0061] It can be understood that when the barrel assembly 2 includes an inner barrel and an outer barrel, one end of the vibration-damping assembly 3 can be connected to the outer barrel, and when the clothing processing device 100 includes a suspension rod 6, one end of the suspension rod 6 is connected to the outer barrel, and the other end is connected to the box body 1 to bear the weight of the barrel assembly 2; when the barrel assembly 2 has only an inner barrel, the barrel assembly 2 can include a water receiving tray, and the water receiving tray is arranged outside the inner barrel, and one end of the vibration-damping assembly 3 can be connected to the water receiving tray. When the clothing processing device 100 includes a suspension rod 6, one end of the suspension rod 6 is connected to the water receiving tray, and the other end is connected to the box body 1 to bear the weight of the barrel assembly 2.

[0062] In this embodiment, the barrel assembly 2 including an inner barrel and an outer barrel is taken as an example for description.

[0063] It is understandable that when the clothing processing device is in washing or dehydration mode, the inner barrel rotates, and the clothes in the inner barrel will shift during the rotation of the inner barrel, causing the center of gravity of the inner barrel to shift, thereby causing the inner barrel to rotate eccentrically, resulting in vibration and deflection of the outer barrel. When the eccentricity of the inner barrel rotation increases, the amplitude of the outer barrel will also increase accordingly, making it easy for the barrel assembly to hit the box body, affecting the dehydration process.

[0064] The vibration damping component 3 is a structure with a vibration damping effect. The vibration damping component 3 provided in this embodiment is used to absorb the vibration energy of the barrel component 2 when the clothing processing device 100 is in the washing or dehydration condition, thereby reducing the vibration displacement of the barrel component 2 and reducing the probability of the barrel component 2 colliding with the box body 1.

[0065] Specifically, see Figures 1 to 3 One end of the vibration damping assembly 3 has a first connecting portion 313, the first connecting portion 313 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first rod body 4, and can slide up and down along the first rod body 4, and the other end of the vibration damping assembly 3 is connected to the component outside the barrel assembly 2.

[0066] That is to say, one end of the vibration-damping assembly 3 is connected to the barrel assembly 2 through the first rod 4. When the clothing processing device 100 is in the washing or dehydration state, the barrel assembly 2 drives the first rod 4 to vibrate synchronously, and the first rod 4 transfers the vibration energy to the first connecting part 313. Under the action of vibration, the first connecting part 313 can slide up and down along the first rod 4 to adapt to the changes in different vibration directions of the barrel assembly 2. In addition, the vibration of the barrel assembly 2 can also force the vibration-damping assembly 3 to absorb the vibration energy, thereby suppressing the vibration amplitude of the barrel assembly 2.

[0067] It should be noted that the components outside the barrel assembly 2 refer to components that are independent of the barrel assembly 2 and are arranged outside the barrel assembly 2. For example, they can be the boom 6, the workbench 7, the box 1, etc., and there is no restriction here. Therefore, the barrel assembly 2 and the components outside the barrel assembly 2 can also jointly provide support for the vibration reduction assembly 3, thereby increasing the installation reliability of the vibration reduction assembly 3.

[0068] Taking a pulsator-type clothing processing device as an example, when the external dimensions of the cabinet remain unchanged, as the washing volume increases, the gap between the barrel assembly and the cabinet becomes smaller and smaller. During the washing or dehydration process, the barrel assembly will vibrate and deflect, and easily hit the cabinet, affecting the safety of the clothing processing device.

[0069] To reduce the vibration amplitude of the tub assembly, clothing processing equipment is equipped with a vibration damper. One end of the damper is connected to the tub assembly, and the other end is connected to a suspension rod. When the tub assembly vibrates, the damper moves accordingly to dissipate vibration energy. However, the damper's end, connected to the tub assembly, has virtually no travel relative to the tub assembly. When the tub assembly vibrates violently, it cannot adapt to the vibration displacement of the tub assembly, resulting in movement stagnation and reduced vibration damping effectiveness.

[0070] In the clothing processing device 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the vibration-damping assembly 3 connected to one end of the barrel assembly 2 slides up and down along the first rod body 4 through the first connecting part 313 to adapt to the vibration displacement of the barrel assembly 2 in different vibration directions. The vibration-damping assembly 3 connected to one end of the barrel assembly 2 has sufficient movement stroke, and can move adaptively when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates violently, with a low probability of getting stuck, thereby facilitating the vibration-damping assembly 3 to cushion the vibration of the barrel assembly 2 and reducing the probability of the barrel assembly 2 hitting the box 1.

[0071] It should be noted that the extension length of the first rod 4 is not limited, but it can at least meet the movement stroke required for the first connecting portion 313 to slide up and down.

[0072] Exemplarily, the extension length of the first rod 4 is 1.5 to 5 times the length of the first connecting portion 313 in the extension direction of the first rod 4, for example, 1.5 times, 1.8 times, 2 times, 2.5 times, 2.7 times, 3 times, 3.2 times, 3.6 times, 4 times, 4.5 times, 5 times, etc.

[0073] In this way, the extension length of the first rod body 4 can satisfy the sliding stroke of the first connecting part 313 while the sliding stroke of the first connecting part 313 can also be maintained within an appropriate range, so that the first connecting part 313 can return to a stationary position with the barrel assembly 2, thereby increasing the vibration reduction reliability of the vibration reduction assembly 3.

[0074] In some embodiments, the first connecting portion 313 can rotate around the circumference of the first rod 4 ; and / or the first connecting portion 313 can drive the entire vibration reduction assembly 3 to swing up and down relative to the first rod 4 .

[0075] The above content includes multiple situations.

[0076] The first type: the first connecting portion 313 can rotate around the circumference of the first rod 4 .

[0077] In this embodiment, the end of the vibration-damping assembly 3 connected to the barrel assembly 2 can slide up and down relative to the first rod 4 while also being able to rotate circumferentially around the first rod 4. This further increases the smoothness of the movement of the vibration-damping assembly 3 and reduces the chance of the vibration-damping assembly 3 getting stuck. In this embodiment, the vibration-damping assembly 3 connected to the end of the barrel assembly 2 has at least two degrees of freedom of movement.

[0078] The second type: the first connecting portion 313 can drive the entire vibration reduction assembly 3 to swing up and down relative to the first rod 4 .

[0079] In this embodiment, the end of the vibration-damping assembly 3 connected to the barrel assembly 2 can not only slide up and down relative to the first rod 4, but can also swing up and down relative to the first rod 4. This can further increase the smoothness of the movement of the vibration-damping assembly 3 and reduce the probability of the vibration-damping assembly 3 getting stuck. In this embodiment, the vibration-damping assembly 3 connected to the end of the barrel assembly 2 has at least two degrees of freedom of movement.

[0080] The third type: the first connecting portion 313 can rotate around the circumference of the first rod 4 , and the first connecting portion can drive the entire vibration reduction assembly 3 to swing up and down relative to the first rod 4 .

[0081] In this embodiment, the vibration damping assembly 3 is connected to one end of the barrel assembly 2 and can slide up and down relative to the first rod body 4. At the same time, it can also rotate circumferentially around the first rod body 4 and swing up and down relative to the first rod body 4. The movement of the vibration damping assembly 3 is smoother and can further adapt to the vibration displacement of the barrel assembly 2 in different vibration directions. The movement reliability of the vibration damping assembly 3 is high.

[0082] There is no limitation on the manner in which the first connecting portion 313 slides up and down along the first rod 4 , rotates around the circumference of the first rod 4 , and drives the entire vibration reduction assembly 3 to swing up and down relative to the first rod 4 .

[0083] For some examples, see Figure 16 and Figure 17 The first connecting part 313 has a first hole 313a, and the first connecting part 313 rotates around the circumference of the first rod body 4 through the first hole 313a. From the opposite ends of the first hole 313a along its axial direction to the middle position of the first hole 313a along its axial direction, the hole wall of the first hole 313a extends toward the axis of the first hole 313a, so that the hole wall of the first hole 313a and the first rod body 4 can swing relative to each other in the up and down directions.

[0084] That is to say, the aperture of the first hole 313a gradually decreases from the opposite ends of the first hole 313a along its axial direction toward the middle position of the first hole 313a along its axial direction. The aperture of the first hole 313a at the middle position of the axial direction is smaller than the aperture of the first hole 313a at the two ends of the axial direction. The aperture of the first hole 313a is roughly larger at the two ends and smaller in the middle.

[0085] In this embodiment, the gap between the first rod 4 and the hole wall of the first hole 313a gradually increases from the middle position of the first hole 313a along its axial direction toward the opposite ends of the first hole 313a along its axial direction. Therefore, when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the first connecting portion 313 slides up and down along the first rod 4 and rotates circumferentially around the first rod 4. The first hole 313a can also provide space for the first connecting portion 313 to swing up and down. In this way, multiple movement modes of the first connecting portion 313 are achieved solely through the cooperation between the first hole 313a and the first rod 4, reducing the probability of the first connecting portion 313 getting stuck, and the overall structure of the vibration damping assembly 3 can also be simplified. In addition, the aperture of the first hole 313a is the smallest at the middle position of the axial direction, which also facilitates increasing the assembly stability of the first hole 313a and the first rod 4.

[0086] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 14 and Figure 15 The first connecting part 313 includes a connecting head 3132 and a seat body 3131. The connecting head 3132 is provided with a first through hole 3132a. The first rod body 4 is slidably penetrated into the first through hole 3132a. The seat body 3131 is connected to the rest of the vibration damping assembly 3. The seat body 3131 has an accommodating cavity. At least part of the connecting head 3132 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity. The surfaces of the contact parts of the connecting head 3132 and the accommodating cavity are formed as spherical surfaces, so that the seat body 3131 can swing universally around the connecting head 3132.

[0087] It should be noted that the connector 3132 can be partially or entirely accommodated in the connector accommodating cavity. The shape of the connector 3132 is not limited. It can be a spherical ball head structure or a combination of a spherical structure and other structures. As long as the base 3131 can swing universally around the connector 3132, there is no limitation here. For example, please refer to Figure 15 , the connector 3132 is a ball head structure.

[0088] The ability of the base body 3131 to universally swing around the connector 3132 means that the base body 3131 can freely rotate around the connector 3132 along random directions in three-dimensional space.

[0089] Specifically, when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the first rod body 4 transmits the vibration energy to the connecting head 3132. Under the action of vibration, the connecting head 3132 slides up and down along the first rod body 4, and drives the first connecting part 313 to slide up and down along the first rod body 4. The seat body 3131 swings in all directions around the connecting head 3132 under the action of vibration to adapt to the displacement of the barrel assembly 2 in different vibration directions. The first connecting part 313 and the connecting head 3132 have a high degree of smoothness in cooperation, which can reduce the probability of the first connecting part 313 getting stuck, increase the movement reliability of the vibration damping assembly 3, facilitate buffering the vibration of the barrel assembly 2, and reduce the probability of the barrel assembly 2 hitting the box body 1.

[0090] For example, the connector 3132 is circumferentially locked against rotation with the first rod 4. That is, the connector 3132 only slides up and down along the first rod 4 and does not rotate circumferentially around the first rod 4. The seat 3131 swings universally around the connector 3132, providing the seat 3131 with sufficient rotational freedom to prevent movement from becoming stuck. Thus, the connector 3132 only needs to slide up and down along the first rod 4 and does not need to rotate circumferentially around the first rod 4. In this embodiment, the circumferentially locked against rotation with the first rod 4 increases the motion stability of the first connecting portion 313, thereby enhancing the vibration reduction reliability of the vibration reduction assembly 3.

[0091] There is no limitation on the method for achieving the anti-rotation cooperation between the connector 3132 and the first rod 4. For example, please refer to Figure 14 and Figure 15 The connecting head 3132 may have a slide groove 3132b, the first through hole 3132a is connected to the slide groove 3132b, the first rod body 4 includes a rod body and a convex rib protruding from the rod body, the rod body is passed through the first through hole 3132a, and the convex rib is slidably passed through the slide groove 3132b, so that the connecting head 3132 and the first rod body 4 are anti-rotationally matched.

[0092] In this embodiment, the rib can slide along the slide groove 3132b and limit the circumferential rotation of the connecting head 3132 around the first rod body 4. Thus, through the cooperation between the rib and the slide groove 3132b, the rotational freedom of the connecting head 3132 is constrained without affecting the sliding of the connecting head 3132 along the extension direction of the first rod body 4.

[0093] The seat body 3131 and the connector 3132 can be mated in any manner. For example, the seat body 3131 can include two separate housings, which together define a receiving cavity for receiving the connector 3132. In this embodiment, the seat body 3131 is a split structure. Thus, when the seat body 3131 and the connector 3132 need to be disconnected, the connection between the two housings can be released.

[0094] Of course, the seat body 3131 may also be an integrally formed structure, which is not limited here.

[0095] The installation method of the first rod body 4 on the barrel assembly 2 is not limited.

[0096] For some examples, see Figure 1 The barrel assembly 2 includes at least two mounting blocks 21 protruding from the circumferential outer wall of the barrel assembly 2. The two mounting blocks 21 are spaced apart in the height direction. The two ends of the first rod body 4 are fixed to the mounting blocks 21. The first connecting portion 313 is sleeved on the position of the first rod body 4 between the two mounting blocks 21.

[0097] In this way, on the one hand, the stability of the first rod body 4 fixed to the barrel assembly 2 can be increased, the probability of the first rod body 4 falling off the barrel assembly 2 can be reduced, and the probability of the first connecting part 313 falling off the first rod body 4 can also be reduced; on the other hand, the movement stroke of the first connecting part 313 sliding up and down along the first rod body 4 is limited to between the two mounting blocks 21, which is convenient for limiting the up and down sliding of the first connecting part 313 and increasing the movement stability of the first connecting part 313.

[0098] The specific structure of the first rod body 4 is not limited.

[0099] For example, the first rod body 4 can be a fixing pin. During installation, the first rod body 4 is passed through the two mounting blocks 21. A screw is provided at the upper mounting block 21, and the screw abuts against the top end of the first rod body 4 to reduce the probability of the first rod body 4 falling off the mounting block 21.

[0100] The specific structure of the vibration damping assembly 3 is not limited.

[0101] For some examples, see Figures 6 to 9 The vibration reduction assembly 3 includes a first moving part 31, a second moving part 32 and a friction part 33. The first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 are connected and can rotate relative to each other around the connection between the two. The friction part 33 is arranged at the rotation connection between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32, and is used to provide friction force to achieve vibration reduction when the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 rotate relative to each other. The first connecting part 313 serves as a part of the first moving part 31 or a part of the second moving part 32.

[0102] It should be noted that the friction member 33 refers to a structure whose material itself has friction damping properties.

[0103] It should be noted that the first connecting part 313 can be a part of the first moving part 31 or a part of the second moving part 32. That is, the first moving part 31 can be connected to the first rod body 4, and the second moving part 32 can be connected to the external part of the barrel assembly 2. Alternatively, the first moving part 31 can be connected to the external part of the barrel assembly 2, and the second moving part 32 can be connected to the first rod body 4.

[0104] It should be noted that the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 can rotate relative to each other around the connection between the two, which means that at least one of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 can rotate around the connection between the two, thereby causing the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 to rotate relative to each other.

[0105] Specifically, when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 rotate relative to each other, rubbing against the friction part 33 to generate friction damping. The friction damping can serve as the damping force of the vibration reduction component 3 to reduce the vibration of the barrel assembly 2, thereby achieving vibration buffering of the barrel assembly 2.

[0106] In this embodiment, friction is generated by causing the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 to rotate relative to each other and rub against the friction part 33, thereby limiting the vibration amplitude of the barrel assembly 2 and reducing the vibration displacement of the barrel assembly 2. The friction part 33 is arranged between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32, that is, the friction part 33 does not directly contact the first rod body 4 or parts other than the barrel assembly 2 (such as the suspension rod 6), and the wear generated by the friction part 33 can be smaller. At the same time, when the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 rotate relative to each other, the friction part 33 can also isolate the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32, reducing the wear generated by direct friction when the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 rotate, and the service life of the vibration damping assembly 3 can also be longer.

[0107] The material of the friction member 33 is not limited. For example, the friction member 33 can be made of a highly wear-resistant polyurethane foam material or a highly wear-resistant soft rubber material, with a high surface friction coefficient and the ability to deform to cooperate with the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32. Of course, the friction member 33 can also be made of a semi-metallic friction material, etc., and this is not limited here.

[0108] One end of the second moving member 32 away from the first moving member 31 can be connected to a component outside the barrel assembly 2, such as the boom 6, the workbench 7, the box 1, etc., which is not limited here.

[0109] For some examples, see Figure 1 and Figure 9The relative rotation axis L2 of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 is substantially parallel to the axis L1 of the tub assembly 2. That is, the relative rotation axis L2 of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 is substantially parallel to the height direction.

[0110] The term "substantially parallel" means that the angle between the relative rotation axis L2 of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 and the axis L1 of the barrel assembly 2 can be 0° or close to 0°, that is, a certain degree of processing and assembly error is allowed. For example, the angle between the relative rotation axis L2 of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 and the axis L1 of the barrel assembly 2 is 0° to 5°, for example, 0°, 0.3°, 0.5°, 0.7°, 0.9°, 1°, 1.2°, 1.4°, 1.6°, 1.8°, 2°, 3°, 4°, 5°, etc.

[0111] It is understandable that during washing or dehydration, the tub assembly will vibrate both horizontally and vertically, with the horizontal vibration being predominant. The tub assembly's vertical vibration displacement is small and less likely to collide with the tub, while the horizontal vibration displacement is large and easily exceeds the horizontal gap between the housing and the tub assembly, causing collision with the housing. Therefore, it is necessary to effectively suppress the horizontal vibration of the tub assembly. The rotational axes of the first and second moving members of the vibration damping member provided in the related art are generally parallel to the horizontal direction, meaning that the first and second moving members primarily swing along the vertical plane. The damping force on vibration is primarily decomposed into a force along the vertical direction, with a small force component along the horizontal direction. Consequently, the horizontal vibration of the tub assembly cannot be effectively absorbed, resulting in a limited vibration damping effect.

[0112] It can be understood that the horizontal direction refers to the direction parallel to the horizontal plane after the clothes processing apparatus 100 is placed on the horizontal ground, for example, the left-right direction, the front-back direction and other horizontal directions intersecting the left-right direction and the front-back direction.

[0113] In this embodiment, when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 of the vibration damping assembly 3 can rotate relative to each other around the connection between the two. Since the relative rotation axis L2 of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 is basically parallel to the height direction, that is, the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 rotate relative to each other roughly in the horizontal direction, the friction force generated by the friction part 33 is roughly in the horizontal direction, which can basically be used to reduce the vibration of the barrel assembly 2 in the horizontal direction, thereby effectively suppressing the horizontal vibration of the barrel assembly 2, reducing the vibration displacement of the barrel assembly 2, and reducing the probability of the barrel assembly 2 colliding with the box body 1.

[0114] In some embodiments, the first connecting portion 313 serves as a part of the first moving member 31 . The laundry processing apparatus 100 includes a second rod 5 . An end of the second moving member 32 away from the first moving member 31 is sleeved on the second rod 5 .

[0115] That is, in this embodiment, the first moving member 31 is connected to the barrel assembly 2 , and the second moving member 32 is connected to a component outside the barrel assembly 2 .

[0116] The second rod 5 may be disposed at any position as long as it is disposed outside the barrel assembly 2 .

[0117] For example, in some embodiments, see Figures 1 to 4 The clothing processing device 100 includes a plurality of suspension rods 6 , one end of the suspension rod 6 is connected to the barrel assembly 2 , and the other end of the suspension rod 6 is connected to the box body 1 , so that the barrel assembly 2 is suspended on the box body 1 through the plurality of suspension rods 6 .

[0118] Specifically, the top end of the hanger 6 is fixed to the box body 1, and the bottom end of the hanger 6 is fixed to the barrel assembly 2. The number of the hangers 6 can be four, and the top ends of the four hangers 6 correspond to the four corners of the top end of the box body 1, and the bottom ends of the four hangers 6 are fixed to the side walls of the barrel assembly 2 corresponding to the four corners of the box body 1. In this way, each hanger 6 can evenly share the weight of the barrel assembly 2, thereby increasing the installation stability of the clothing processing device 100.

[0119] See also Figure 1 The second rod body 5 is a part of the boom 6 .

[0120] In this embodiment, one end of the vibration damping assembly 3 is connected to the barrel assembly 2 through the first rod body 4, and the other end of the vibration damping assembly 3 is connected to the suspension rod 6. There is sufficient installation space between the barrel assembly 2 and the suspension rod 6 to arrange the vibration damping assembly 3. The suspension rod 6 has sufficient structural strength to provide sufficient movement support for the vibration damping assembly 3. The end of the vibration damping assembly 3 connected to the suspension rod 6 will not fall off the suspension rod 6, thereby increasing the installation stability of the vibration damping assembly 3; in addition, the other end of the vibration damping assembly 3 is not directly connected to the box body 1, and the vibration energy of the barrel assembly 2 is transmitted to the box body 1 via the first rod body 4, the vibration damping assembly 3, and the suspension rod 6, which can reduce the vibration energy received by the box body 1 and increase the operating stability of the clothing processing device 100.

[0121] Of course, in other embodiments, the second rod 5 may also be connected to the suspension rod 6. The suspension rod 6 can provide support for the second rod 5, thereby providing sufficient support for the second moving member 32.

[0122] It is understood that a vibration damping structure may also be provided on the suspension rod 6 to cushion the vibration of the barrel assembly 2. For example, see Figure 1The clothing processing device 100 includes a damping cylinder 63, a base 64 provided at the bottom end of the suspension rod 6, and a shock-absorbing spring 62. The shock-absorbing spring 62 is passed through the suspension rod 6 and is sandwiched between the damping cylinder 63 and the base 64. A connecting slot 2a is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the bottom end of the barrel assembly 2, and the connecting slot 2a is sleeved on the damping cylinder 63. Specifically, the damping cylinder 63 is sleeved on the suspension rod 6, and the shock-absorbing spring 62 is a compression spring. One end of the shock-absorbing spring 62 abuts against the bottom end of the damping cylinder 63, and the other end abuts against the base 64. In this way, when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates during the washing or dehydration process, the shock-absorbing spring 62 slides up and down along the suspension rod 6 to absorb the longitudinal vibration energy of the barrel assembly 2, thereby reducing the vibration noise of the housing 1 and increasing the operational stability of the clothing processing device 100.

[0123] The number of vibration reduction components 3 is not limited. For example, see Figure 2 There are four vibration-damping assemblies 3 and four first rod bodies 4. One end of the four vibration-damping assemblies 3 is connected to the first rod body 4, and the other end is connected to the suspension rod 6, so that the vibration-damping assemblies 3 can evenly and fully buffer the vibration of the barrel assembly 2 from different directions, increase the vibration-damping effect, and improve the operating safety of the clothing processing device 100.

[0124] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 10 The clothing processing device 100 includes a workbench 7, which is arranged at the top of the box body 1. One end of the second rod body 5 is connected to the workbench 7, and the other end extends downward from the workbench 7 to form a suspended free end, or, after extending downward, is connected to the lower part or bottom plate of the box body 1. The second moving member 32 is connected to the workbench 7 through the second rod body 5.

[0125] It can be understood that the workbench 7 is located on the top side of the box body 1, and the workbench 7 has a clothing loading port connected to the clothing processing chamber, that is, the clothes to be washed can be put into the clothing processing chamber from the top side through the clothing loading port, and the washed clothes can also be taken out from the clothing processing chamber through the clothing loading port.

[0126] In this embodiment, the first moving part 31 is connected to the barrel assembly 2 through the first rod body 4, and the second moving part 32 is connected to the workbench 7 through the second rod body 5. The barrel assembly 2 and the workbench 7 jointly provide installation support for the vibration damping assembly 3 to increase the installation stability and movement stability of the vibration damping assembly 3. Moreover, the other end of the vibration damping assembly 3 is not directly connected to the box body 1. The vibration energy of the barrel assembly 2 is transmitted to the box body 1 through the first rod body 4, the vibration damping assembly 3, and the workbench 7. The workbench 7 can share part of the vibration energy for the box body 1, reduce the vibration noise of the box body 1, and increase the operation stability of the clothing processing device 100.

[0127] In addition, the second rod 5 extends downward from the workbench 7 , and the axis of the second rod 5 is along the height direction, which facilitates the circumferential rotation of the second moving member 32 around the second rod 5 and reduces the rotation resistance.

[0128] In some other embodiments, please refer to Figures 11 to 13 The clothing processing device 100 includes a mounting base 11, which is arranged on the inner side of the box body 1, at least one end of the second rod body 5 is arranged on the mounting base 11, and the second moving member 32 is connected to the box body 1 through the second rod body 5.

[0129] In this embodiment, the first moving part 31 is connected to the barrel assembly 2 through the first rod body 4, and the second moving part 32 is connected to the box body 1 through the second rod body 5, so as to connect the vibration damping assembly 3 to the barrel assembly 2 and the box body 1 respectively. The barrel assembly 2 and the box body 1 jointly provide support for the vibration damping assembly 3. In this way, the vibration damping assembly 3 has sufficient installation space and movement space to facilitate buffering the vibration of the barrel assembly 2.

[0130] In some embodiments, the second moving member 32 is a rigid component and has only one degree of freedom of movement.

[0131] It should be noted that a rigid component is a single element of a mechanism, a rigid body that moves with respect to an adjacent component. In mechanics, a rigid component is a basic unit that composes a mechanism and has a defined relative motion relationship with each other. Degrees of freedom refer to the number of independent coordinates required to describe a mechanical system. One degree of freedom means that the second moving member 32 can move in only one direction, and movement in other directions is constrained. For example, the second moving member 32 may have only one rotational degree of freedom or only one translational degree of freedom.

[0132] Exemplarily, the second movable part 32 has only one rotational degree of freedom, namely, the freedom of circumferential rotation around the second rod body 5. While enabling the entire vibration damping assembly 3 to adaptively change with the change of the position of the barrel assembly 2 under the action of vibration, it also enables the second movable part 32 to have sufficient installation stability.

[0133] The second moving member 32 may be an integral component with a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.

[0134] There is no limitation on the manner of achieving that the second moving member 32 has only one rotational degree of freedom.

[0135] Taking the second rod body 5 as a part of the suspension rod 6 as an example, the second moving member 32 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the suspension rod 6. Figure 5The suspension rod 6 is provided with two retaining grooves 6a spaced apart along the extension direction of the suspension rod 6. The laundry processing apparatus 100 includes two retaining springs 61, which are respectively retained in the corresponding retaining grooves 6a. The end of the second moving member 32, which is away from the first moving member 31, is sandwiched between the two retaining springs 61. Thus, the engagement between the retaining springs 61 and the retaining grooves 6a restricts the sliding of the second moving member 32 along the extension direction of the suspension rod 6, so that the second moving member 32 has only the degree of rotational freedom of rotation about the circumference of the suspension rod 6.

[0136] The specific structures of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 are not limited.

[0137] For some examples, see Figure 7 The first moving part 31 includes a first connecting seat 311 and a first connecting structure 312, the first connecting seat 311 is arranged at one end of the first connecting structure 312, and the first connecting part 313 is arranged at the other end of the first connecting structure 312, and the second moving part 32 includes a second connecting seat 321 and a second connecting structure 322, the second connecting seat 321 is arranged at one end of the second connecting structure 322, and the end of the second connecting structure 322 away from the second connecting seat 321 is connected to the components outside the barrel assembly 2.

[0138] The first connecting seat 311 includes a first annular portion 3111 , and the second connecting seat 321 includes a second annular portion 3211 . The first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211 are nested and define an annular space along the radial direction. The friction member 33 is disposed in the annular space.

[0139] That is to say, when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the first connecting portion 313 rotates along the circumference of the first rod body 4, thereby driving the first connecting structure 312 to rotate around the circumference of the first rod body 4, and the first connecting structure 312 drives the first connecting seat 311 to rotate around the circumference of the first rod body 4, so as to realize the circumferential rotation of the first moving part 31 as a whole around the first rod body 4, thereby realizing the relative rotation between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32.

[0140] It should be noted that the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211 are annular structures that are connected end to end and have no gaps in the circumferential direction. The nested arrangement of the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211 means that the first annular portion 3111 is embedded in the second annular portion 3211, or the second annular portion 3211 is embedded in the first annular portion 3111; the annular space is the space between the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211. The friction member 33 is disposed in the annular space, that is, the friction member 33 is disposed between the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211. When the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 rotate relative to each other, the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211 rotate relative to each other, thereby rubbing against the friction member 33 to generate friction force.

[0141] In this embodiment, the first moving part 31, the second moving part 32 and the friction part 33 are connected together by the nesting cooperation of the first annular part 3111 and the second annular part 3211. The overall structure of the vibration damping assembly 3 is simple and easy to install, and the probability of damage to the friction part 33 during the assembly process can also be reduced.

[0142] The matching manner between the first connection structure 312 and the first connection portion 313 is not limited.

[0143] In some embodiments, the first connection structure 312 is rotatably connected to the first connection portion 313 , and their rotation axes are perpendicular to the axis of the first rod 4 , so that the first connection structure 312 can swing up and down relative to the first connection portion 313 .

[0144] That is to say, the rotation axis of the first connecting structure 312 and the first connecting part 313 is in the horizontal direction, so when the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, when the first connecting part 313 slides up and down along the first rod body 4, the first connecting structure 312 swings up and down relative to the first connecting part 313, increasing the movement range of the first moving part 31 and reducing the probability of the first moving part 31 getting stuck, thereby facilitating the vibration reduction assembly 3 to buffer the vibration of the barrel assembly 2.

[0145] The rotational connection manner between the first connection structure 312 and the first connection portion 313 is not limited. For example, the first connection structure 312 and the first connection portion 313 may be hinged.

[0146] It can be understood that, in this embodiment, the first connecting structure 312 and the first connecting portion 313 can be split structures, and the first connecting structure 312 and the first connecting portion 313 are independently manufactured and formed and then hinged together.

[0147] In the embodiment where the first connection portion 313 is provided with the first hole 313 a , the first connection portion 313 and the first connection structure 312 may be integrally formed, ie, the first connection structure 312 does not swing up and down relative to the first connection portion 313 .

[0148] In the embodiment where the first connection portion 313 is provided with a connection head 3132 , the first connection structure 312 can be integrally formed with the base 3131 , and then the connection head 3132 is matched with the base 3131 , and the first connection structure 312 will not swing up and down relative to the base 3131 .

[0149] The specific structures of the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 321 are not limited.

[0150] For some examples, see Figure 7 and Figure 9 The first connecting seat 311 includes a first end plate 3112 connected to the first annular portion 3111, and the second connecting seat 321 includes a second end plate 3212 connected to the second annular portion 3211. The first end plate 3112 and the second end plate 3212 are arranged in parallel, and the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211 are located between the first end plate 3112 and the second end plate 3212.

[0151] It should be noted that the parallel arrangement of the first end plate 3112 and the second end plate 3212 refers to the positional relationship between the first end plate 3112 and the second end plate 3212 after the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 are connected.

[0152] In this embodiment, the first end plate 3112 and the second end plate 3212 can provide support for the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211. The first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211 are confined between the first end plate 3112 and the second end plate 3212, thereby increasing the docking stability of the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211 and reducing the chance of loosening of the docking of the first annular portion 3111 and the second annular portion 3211. Furthermore, the probability of the friction member 33 escaping from the annular space is reduced, and the friction member 33 is isolated from other components outside the vibration damping assembly 3, thereby improving the installation stability of the vibration damping assembly 3. Furthermore, the first end plate 3112 and the second end plate 3212 are arranged in parallel, further increasing the smoothness of the relative rotation of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32.

[0153] For some examples, see Figure 7The second annular portion 3211 surrounds the outer circumference of the first annular portion 3111, the second end plate 3212 is provided with a second through hole 3212a, and the first connecting seat 311 also includes one or more elastic hooks 3113 passing through the internal space of the first annular portion 3111, one end of the elastic hook 3113 is connected to the first end plate 3112, and the other end passes through the second through hole 3212a and is connected to the surface of the second end plate 3212 away from the first end plate 3112.

[0154] The elastic hook 3113 refers to a structure that has elasticity and can be deformed.

[0155] Specifically, when the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 are docked, the friction part 33 is first set on the outer periphery of the first annular part 3111, and then the second through hole 3212a of the second annular part 3211 is passed through the elastic hook 3113 from top to bottom. During the insertion process, the elastic hook 3113 undergoes elastic deformation. When the second annular part 3211 completely surrounds the outer periphery of the first annular part 3111, the elastic hook 3113 extends out of the second through hole 3212a, restores the deformation, and abuts against the side of the second end plate 3212 away from the first end plate 3112, thereby connecting the first connecting seat 311 and the second connecting seat 321 together, reducing the probability of the second connecting seat 321 falling off the first connecting seat 311, and increasing the installation stability of the vibration damping assembly 3.

[0156] The number of the elastic hooks 3113 is not limited and can be one, two or more than three. For example, see Figures 7 and 8 , the number of the elastic hooks 3113 is three.

[0157] Of course, in other embodiments, the first annular portion 3111 surrounds the outer circumference of the second annular portion 3211, the first end plate 3112 is provided with a second through hole, and the second connecting seat 321 includes one or more elastic hooks passing through the internal space of the second annular portion 3211, one end of the elastic hook is connected to the second end plate 3212, and the other end passes through the second through hole and is connected to the surface of the first end plate 3112 on the side away from the second end plate 3212.

[0158] For some examples, see Figures 6 to 9 The first connecting seat 311 also includes a limiting structure 3114, which is arranged on the first end plate 3112 and is located on the circumferential outside of the first annular portion 3111. The limiting structure 3114 is used to cooperate with the second moving part 32 along the circumferential stop to limit the maximum rotation angle of the second moving part 32 when it rotates relative to the first moving part 31.

[0159] It should be noted that, in the initial state, the angle between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 is the first angle. The initial state is the position of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 when the barrel assembly 2 is in a stationary state. When the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the second moving part 32 rotates relative to the first moving part 31. When the second moving part 32 abuts against the limiting structure 3114, the angle between the second moving part 32 and the first moving part 31 is the second angle. The maximum rotation angle of the second moving part 32 relative to the first moving part 31 is the difference between the second angle and the first angle.

[0160] It can be understood that the first end of the first moving member 31 is connected to the first end of the second moving member 32, and the angle between the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 is the angle between the line connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the first moving member 31 and the line connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the second moving member 32.

[0161] It can be understood that the second end of the first moving part 31, that is, the end of the first moving part 31 away from the second moving part 32, the second end of the second moving part 32, that is, the end of the second moving part 32 away from the first moving part 31, the second end of the first moving part 31 can be connected to the barrel assembly 2, and the second end of the second moving part 32 can be connected to the component outside the barrel assembly 2.

[0162] It can be understood that when the barrel assembly vibrates and deflects, the first moving part and the second moving part rotate relative to each other under the action of vibration. When the rotation position of the second moving part relative to the first moving part exceeds the critical position, the resistance of the first moving part and the second moving part to return to the initial state is greatly increased, so that they cannot move adaptively according to the change of the vibration position of the barrel assembly, resulting in the inability to effectively suppress the vibration of the barrel assembly and reducing the vibration reduction reliability of the vibration reduction assembly.

[0163] In this embodiment, when the second moving part 32 rotates to the maximum rotation angle relative to the first moving part 31, the second moving part 32 cooperates with the limit structure 3114 to stop it, and the limit structure 3114 prevents the second moving part 32 from rotating in the direction of increasing the relative rotation angle, so as to control the rotation angle of the second moving part 32 relative to the first moving part 31 within an appropriate range, thereby reducing the resistance of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 to return to their initial state, and increasing the vibration reduction reliability of the vibration reduction assembly 3.

[0164] Of course, in other embodiments, the limiting structure can be provided on the second connecting seat 321, and the limiting structure is provided on the second end plate 3212 and is located on the circumferential outside of the second annular portion 3211. The limiting structure is used to cooperate with the first moving part 31 along the circumferential stop to limit the maximum rotation angle of the first moving part 31 when it rotates relative to the second moving part 32.

[0165] In some examples, the angle between the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 does not exceed 180°. That is, in any position, the angle between the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32 does not exceed 180°. In other words, the angle between the line connecting the centers of the first and second ends of the first moving member 31 and the line connecting the centers of the first and second ends of the second moving member 32 does not exceed 180°.

[0166] It is understood that the angle of no more than 180° means that before or during the relative rotation of the first moving member 31 and the second moving member 32, the angle between the line connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the first moving member 31 and the line connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the second moving member 32 in the same direction does not exceed 180°. For example, refer to Figure 7 Taking the first moving part 31 as a reference, the angle between the line connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the first moving part 31 and the line connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the second moving part 32 along the counterclockwise direction shown in the figure does not exceed 180°.

[0167] In this embodiment, the angle setting between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 can limit the relative position change of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 to a reasonable range, so that the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 can adaptively move with the vibration position change of the barrel assembly 2, thereby increasing the vibration reduction reliability of the vibration reduction assembly 3.

[0168] For some examples, see Figure 8 When the barrel assembly 2 is in a stationary state, the angle between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32, that is, the angle α between the line A1 connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the first moving part 31 and the line A2 connecting the centers of the first end and the second end of the second moving part 32 is not less than 50° and not more than 120°, that is, 50°≤α≤120°, for example, 50°, 55°, 60°, 63°, 69°, 72°, 75°, 86°, 90°, 95°, 100°, 110°, 120°, etc.

[0169] In this embodiment, when the barrel assembly 2 is in a stationary state, the angle between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 is within an appropriate range. On the one hand, it facilitates the relative rotation of the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 under the vibration of the barrel assembly 2. On the other hand, it also allows the second moving part 32 to have a sufficient rotation range when rotating relative to the first moving part 31, thereby increasing the vibration reduction reliability of the vibration reduction assembly 3.

[0170] In some examples, the connection position between the vibration damping assembly 3 and the first rod body 4 is the first position 3a, and the connection position between the vibration damping assembly 3 and the external part of the barrel assembly 2 is the second position 3b. In the plane projection perpendicular to the height direction of the clothing processing device 100, when the barrel assembly 2 is in a stationary state, the line L3 connecting the centers of the projections of the first position 3a and the second position 3b is basically perpendicular to the tangent L4 of the barrel assembly 2 at the first position 3a.

[0171] The term "substantially perpendicular" means that the angle between the line L3 connecting the centers of the projections of the first position 3a and the second position 3b and the tangent line L4 of the barrel assembly 2 at the first position 3a can be 90° or close to 90°, that is, a certain degree of processing and assembly error is allowed. For example, the angle β between the line L3 connecting the centers of the projections of the first position 3a and the second position 3b and the tangent line L4 of the barrel assembly 2 at the first position 3a is 85° to 95°, that is, 85°≤β≤95°, for example, 85°, 86°, 87°, 88°, 89°, 90°, 91°, 92°, 93°, 94°, 95°, etc.

[0172] by Figure 4 For example, the first position 3a is the connection position of the vibration reduction assembly 3 and the first rod body 4, and the second position 3b is the connection position of the vibration reduction assembly 3 and the suspension rod 6.

[0173] In this embodiment, the range of the angle β can ensure that when the barrel assembly 2 is in a stationary state, the vibration damping assembly 3 can also be in a relatively stable state. When the barrel assembly 2 vibrates and deflects, the resistance of the vibration damping assembly 3 when it moves with the vibration of the barrel assembly 2 can also be small, which is convenient for increasing the working reliability of the vibration damping assembly 3.

[0174] The following combination Figure 1 The movement mode of the vibration reduction assembly 3 according to an embodiment of the present application is briefly described.

[0175] The first moving part 31 is mounted on the first rod body 4, and the second moving part 32 is mounted on the suspension rod 6. Under the vibration of the barrel assembly 2, the first moving part 31 can rotate around the circumference of the first rod body 4, slide up and down along the first rod body 4, and swing up and down relative to the first rod body 4. The second moving part 32 can rotate around the circumference of the suspension rod 6, and the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32 can rotate relative to each other.

[0176] In this embodiment, the vibration damping assembly 3 has a total of five degrees of freedom of motion, namely, the degree of freedom of rotation around the circumferential rotation of the first rod body 4, the degree of freedom of swinging up and down relative to the first rod body 4, the degree of freedom of sliding up and down along the first rod body 4, the degree of freedom of rotation around the circumferential rotation of the suspension rod 6, and the degree of freedom of relative rotation between the first moving part 31 and the second moving part 32. The probability of motion jamming of the vibration damping assembly 3 is low, it can adapt to the position changes of the barrel assembly 2 during vibration, and the vibration reduction reliability is high.
