The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only.
[0041] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains. The terms used in this specification of the present invention are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0042] The spray washing assembly of the present invention is primarily used for cleaning items made of special materials or items that need to maintain their shape. For example, these items are hard on the outside but soft on the inside, such as helmets and leather shoes; clothing that needs to maintain a certain shape, such as women's underwear and fashion-inspired clothing; and fragile accessories, such as belts and decorative buckles. The spray washing assembly includes a spray structure 10 and an item retaining structure 20. The spray structure 10 sprays water onto items within the item retaining structure 20 for cleaning. The item retaining structure 20 keeps the items in place, preventing damage from colliding with the inner drum of the washing machine during the washing process.
[0043] See also Figures 1 to 3 The spray structure 10 includes a shell 11 , a pump 12 , and a plurality of protrusions 13 extending from the surface of the shell 11 .
[0044] The shell 11 is provided with a first water inlet 110, a mounting portion 111 and a water storage chamber 112. The first water inlet 110 is located at the bottom of the shell 11, and the mounting portion 111 is located at the edge of the shell 11. The mounting portion 111 is used to cooperate with the inner drum of the washing device so that the spray structure 10 is installed inside the inner drum of the washing device. In this embodiment, the spray structure 10 is detachably mounted on the bottom of the inner drum of the washing device through the mounting portion 111, so the shape of the shell 11 is the same as the shape of the bottom wall of the inner drum. Specifically, the mounting portion 111 is any one of a hard buckle, a soft deformation structure, and an adsorbent. When the mounting portion 111 is a hard buckle, the mounting portion 111 and the shell 11 are integrally molded by injection molding, and the mounting portion 111 is buckled with the bottom of the inner drum. When the mounting portion 111 is a soft deformation structure, the mounting portion 111 is made of silicone material, and a slot is provided at the bottom of the inner drum, and the mounting portion 111 is buckled or interferes with the slot. When the mounting portion 111 is an adsorption member, the mounting portion 111 is adsorbed to the bottom of the inner cylinder by magnetic attraction. The shell 11 is a hollow structure, and a water storage chamber 112 is formed inside the shell 11.
[0045] The pump 12 is installed in the shell 11 and the water inlet of the pump 12 is connected to the first water inlet 110 of the shell 11, and the first water outlet 120 of the pump 12 is connected to the water storage chamber 112. The pump 12 increases the amount of washing water entering the first water inlet 110 and increases the flow rate so that the washing water is sprayed vertically from the water spray hole 131.
[0046] The pump 12 includes a power connection line 121, and the pump 12 is powered by being connected to an external power source through the power connection line 121. When in use, the power connection line 121 is connected to the external power source. Using an external power source can effectively reduce the cost, weight and volume of the pump 12, which is conducive to the lightweighting of the spray structure 10.
[0047] In other embodiments, a built-in battery is provided inside the pump 12, which is powered by the built-in battery and is easy to use. The protrusion 13 extends from the surface of the shell 11 toward the article fixing structure 20. The protrusion 13 is long and acts as an impeller, which can drive the washing water in the inner drum of the pulsator washing machine to rotate. The protrusion 13 is provided with a plurality of water spray channels 130 and a plurality of water spray holes 131 connected to the water spray channels 130. In this embodiment, the water spray holes 131 and the water spray channels 130 are in a one-to-one correspondence. One end of each water spray channel 130 is connected to the water storage chamber 112, and the other end is connected to a water spray hole 131. The multiple water spray holes 131 are evenly spaced on the protrusion 13. In this embodiment, the number of protrusions 13 is two, and they are arranged in a cross shape.
[0048] In other embodiments, the housing 11 is removably mounted on the impeller at the bottom of the drum of a pulsator washing machine, and thus the shape of the housing 11 is the same as that of the impeller. In this case, the protrusion 13 is not provided on the spray structure 10, and the water spray holes 131 are directly provided on the surface of the housing 11 facing the object securing structure 20.
[0049] Please continue reading Figure 4 This is a first embodiment of an article securing structure 20. In this embodiment, the article securing structure 20 is detachably mounted on the inner wall of the washing machine lid. The article securing structure 20 comprises a connecting base 21, a telescopic rod 22, a hook 23, and a storage unit 24. The connecting base 21 is detachably connected to the inner wall of the washing machine lid via a suction cup, a buckle, a strap, or magnetic attraction. One end of the telescopic rod 22 is connected to the connecting base 21, and the other end is mounted with the hook 23. Specifically, the telescopic rod 22 can be extended using any of a cylindrical telescopic, folding telescopic, or octopus-leg structures. The number of telescopic rods 22 can be single or multiple. When the washing machine is a pulsator washing machine, the telescopic rod 22 adjusts the height of the storage unit 24 within the inner drum. When the washing machine is a drum washing machine, the telescopic rod 22 adjusts the insertion position of the storage unit 24 within the inner drum. The hook 23 is used to mount the storage unit 24. The storage unit 24 is provided with a water hole to allow wash water to enter the storage unit 24 and be applied to the items. When the washing device is a pulsator washing machine, the storage member 24 is a net bag, which is hung on the hook 23 to prevent the items in the net bag from colliding with the inner drum. When the washing device is a drum washing machine, the storage member 24 is a bracket with a certain rigidity, and the items are placed on the bracket to prevent the items from colliding with the inner drum.
[0050] When using the spray washing assembly, snap the mounting portion 111 of the spray structure 10 onto the bottom of the inner drum of the washing device so that the spray structure 10 is installed at the bottom of the inner drum of the washing device, and position the first water inlet 110 of the housing 11 to correspond to the water inlet of the inner drum. Connect the power cord 121 of the pump 12 to the power cord of the washing device so that they work simultaneously. Manually install the connection seat 21 of the item fixing structure 20 onto the inner wall of the washing device cover. At this time, when the washing device is a pulsator washing machine, the item fixing structure 20 is located above the spray structure 10. When the washing device is a drum washing machine, the item fixing structure 20 is located in front of the spray structure 10. After applying detergent on the surface of the item, place it in the storage part 24. Install the storage part 24 on the telescopic rod 22 through the hook 23. Adjust the length of the telescopic rod 22 according to the size of the item so that the storage part 24 is in the appropriate position so that the items can be cleaned by the water sprayed from the spray structure 10. When the washing function is turned on, water begins flowing from the first water inlet 110 of the spray structure 10 to the pump 12. In this embodiment, the pump 12 is a centrifugal pump. The motor within the pump 12 rotates at high speed, pressurizing the wash water to flow from the first water outlet 120 into the water storage chamber 112. The wash water within the water storage chamber 112 is then sprayed upward from the spray hole 131 through the spray channel 130. Simultaneously, the rotating mechanism of the washing device, such as the impeller, drives the spray structure 10 to rotate, increasing the spray area. The wash water is repeatedly sprayed onto the items within the storage unit 24 to clean them. In a pulsator washing machine, water is stored in the inner drum, and as the inner drum rotates, it drives the wash water within the inner drum to rotate, washing the items within the storage unit 24. After the waste water is discharged, the spraying and washing steps are repeated, achieving optimal internal and external cleaning results.
[0051] Please continue reading Figure 5 , which is a second embodiment of the article securing structure 20. In this embodiment, the article securing structure 20 is detachably mounted on the inner drum of the washing device or fixed to the spray structure 10. Specifically, the article securing structure 20 includes a fixing frame 25, a mounting hook 26, and a storage member 24. The fixing frame 25 is a hollow structure used to position the storage member 24. In this embodiment, the fixing frame 25 is cylindrical, and the storage member 24 is mounted on the fixing frame 25 via the mounting hook 26. In this embodiment, the storage member 24 is a net bag.
[0052] In one embodiment, the fixing frame 25 can be made entirely of silicone material. The fixing frame 25 has a certain thickness and can provide sufficient elastic support force to ensure that the storage component 24 and the spray structure 10 have a stable relative position.
[0053] Please continue reading Figure 6 as well as Figure 7 The article fixing structure 20 in the second embodiment can be used in separate or integrated modes.
[0054] When used in a split manner, the spray structure 10 is installed at the bottom of the inner drum, the fixing frame 25 is placed in the washing device, and the storage member 24 for placing items is fixed by the mounting hook 26 on the fixing frame 25; the fixing frame 25 is kept stationary relative to the inner drum through the track / sliding groove, and the spray structure 10 rotates with the inner drum to realize the rotation of the spray structure 10 relative to the item fixing structure 20, thereby expanding the cleaning area and improving the cleaning ability.
[0055] When used as an integrated unit, the fixing frame 25 is fixed to the housing 11 of the spray structure 10 via fasteners 30. In this case, the spray structure 10 and the article fixing structure 20 function as a single unit. The spray structure 10 is mounted at the bottom of the inner tube, and the articles in the storage unit 24 are suspended in the fixing frame 25 to prevent collision between the articles and the fixing frame 25 or the inner tube.
[0056] Please continue reading Figure 8 An embodiment provided by the present invention specifically describes the use of the spray washing component in an application scenario where a pulsator washing machine is used in an integrated manner.
[0057] The pulsator washing machine includes a pulsator outer drum 40, a pulsator inner drum 50 installed inside the pulsator outer drum 40, and a rotating drive device 60. The rotating drive device 60 is installed in the pulsator outer drum 40 and is transmission-connected to the pulsator inner drum 50 to drive the pulsator inner drum 50 to rotate relative to the pulsator outer drum 40.
[0058] A base 41 for mounting the rotation drive device 60 is provided at the bottom of the impeller outer cylinder 40 .
[0059] The pulsator inner drum 50 includes a bottom wall 53 and side walls 54, which are fixedly connected to each other. The rotation drive device 60 drives the bottom wall 53 to rotate the side walls 54 together. A second water inlet 51 is provided at the top of the side wall 54. This second water inlet 51 is used to allow wash water to enter the pulsator inner drum 50 to immerse the items to be washed. The bottom wall 53 is provided with a second water outlet 52, which is used to discharge wastewater. The bottom wall 53 also has a raised impeller 530. The housing 11 of the spray structure 10 is removably mounted on the impeller 530. The fixing bracket 25 is fixed to the housing 11 of the spray structure 10 via fasteners 30.
[0060] An embodiment of the present invention also relates to a washing device, including an inner drum and the above-mentioned spray washing assembly, wherein the item fixing structure 20 is installed inside the inner drum, and the spray structure 10 is installed inside the inner drum and sprays and washes the items in the storage part 24.
[0061] The embodiment of the present invention uses the spray structure 10 to spray-clean items made of special materials, deeply cleaning both inside and out, saving time, effort, and costs. Furthermore, the item securing structure 20 positions or suspends items, preventing damage caused by collisions between the items and the inner drum of the washing device. This embodiment is suitable for both drum washing machines and pulsator washing machines, and is highly versatile. The item securing structure 20 can accommodate items of varying shapes and sizes, and installation and securing are convenient and secure. The spray washing assembly is detachably mounted within the washing device as a whole and can be removed after use without affecting the normal operation of the washing device. The spray structure 10 and the item securing structure 20 can be used separately or as a whole, adapting to different occasions and environments.
[0062] The above embodiments merely illustrate several implementations of the present invention, and while their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patented invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art would be able to make numerous variations and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
